具体实施方式
为使本公开的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本公开实施方式作进一步地详细描述。
图1示出了本公开一个示意性实施例提供的通信系统的框图,该通信系统可以包括:核心网11、接入网12和终端13。
核心网11中包括若干个核心网设备110。核心网设备110是部署在核心网中的设备,核心网设备的功能主要是提供用户连接、对用户的管理以及对业务完成承载,作为承载网络提供到外部网络的接口。例如,5G NR系统中的核心网设备可以包括接入和移动性管理功能(Access and Mobility Management Function,AMF)网元、用户平面功能(User Plane Function,UPF)网元和会话管理功能(Session Management Function,SMF)网元等。示例性的,本申请实施例中的核心网设备30可以包括位置管理功能网元。可选地,位置管理功能网元包括位置服务器(location server),位置服务器可以实现为以下任意一项:LMF(Location Management Function,位置管理网元)、E-SMLC(Enhanced Serving Mobile Location Centre,增强服务的流动定位中心)、SUPL(Secure User Plane Location,安全用户平面定位)、SUPL SLP(SUPL Location Platform,安全用户平面定位平台)。
接入网12中包括若干个接入网设备120。接入网设备120可以是基站,基站是一种部署在接入网中用以为终端提供无线通信功能的装置。基站可以包括各种形式的宏基站,微基站,中继站,接入点或发送接收点(Transmission Reception Point,TRP)等等。在采用不同的无线接入技术的系统中,具备基站功能的设备的名称可能会有所不同,例如在长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统中,称为eNodeB或者eNB;在5G新空口(New Radio,NR)系统中,称为gNode B或者gNB。随着通信技术的演进,“基站”这一名称可能描述会变化。为方便本公开实施例中,上述为终端提供无线通信功能的装置统称为接入网设备。
终端13可以包括各种具有无线通信功能的手持设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其他处理设备,以及各种形式的终端(User Equipment,UE),移动台(Mobile Station,MS),终端(terminal device)等等。为方便描述,上面提到的设备统称为终端。接入网设备120与终端13之间通过某种空口技术互相通信,例如Uu接口。基于5G的工业传感器(Industrial sensor)、监控摄像(video surveillance)以及可穿戴类设备等不需要支持这么大的带宽,尤其是工业传感器类,仅需要数兆的传输带宽。此类终端在5G后续版本增强中可能被归为一种新的终端类型,并进行相应的技术特性改进。
可选地,以上述终端13和接入网设备120之间进行无线通信的过程中,可以通过授权频段进行无线通信,也可以通过非授权频段进行无线通信。
为终端配置非连续接收机制(Discontinuous Reception,DRX)的主要目的在于节能,也即:减少终端的能源消耗。示意性的,终端与接入网设备为连接态(RRC_Connected)时,终端所配置的DRX包括如下至少一种。
(1)drx-On DurationTimer:the duration at the beginning of a DRX cycle;
也即,在DRX配置下,DRX周期开始时终端处于唤醒状态的最短持续时长,也可称为on duration或唤醒时间;
(2)drx-Slot Offset:the delay before starting the drx-On Duration Timer;
也即,在DRX配置下,DRX的周期以及On Duration的时隙偏移值;
(3)drx-Inactivity Timer:the duration after the PDCCH occasion in which a PDCCH indicates a new UL or DL transmission for the MAC entity;
也即,在DRX配置下,终端在On Duration中,接收到调度终端的下行指令或者上行指令时,需要继续保持活跃(active)的时长;
(4)drx-Retransmission Timer DL(per DL HARQ process except for the broadcast process):the maximum duration until a DL retransmission is received;
也即,在DRX配置下,除广播过程外,在每一个混合自动重传请求中,收到一个下行重传指令之前的最大持续时长(drx-Retransmission Timer DL);
(5)drx-Retransmission Timer UL(per UL HARQ process):the maximum duration until a grant for UL retransmission is received;
也即,在DRX配置下,在每一个混合自动重传请求中,收到一个上行重传 指令授权之前的最大持续时长(drx-Retransmission Timer UL)。
在一些实施例中,以上述drx-SlotOffset、drx-On Duration Timer以及drx-Inactivity Timer三个参数为例进行说明。DRX的基本原理在于,终端只需要周期性地在On Duration时长内醒来,并接收接入网设备发送的下行信号/信道。若在On Duration时长内没有检测到调度自身(终端本身)的下行(DownLink,DL)或者上行(UpLink,UL)的下行控制信息(Download Control Information,DCI),则在On Duration时长结束后,终端可以不需要再接收接入网设备发送的下行信号/信道,直到下个周期的On Duration再接收接入网设备发送的下行信号/信道。如果终端在On Duration时长内检测到调度自身的DL或者UL的DCI,则开启drx-Inactivity Timer,即:至少需要继续接收Inactivity Timer时长。
在一些实施例中,Active Time用于指示终端需要醒来的时间,在DRX配置下,DRX周期内终端在服务小区(Serving Cells)内醒来的时间包括如下至少一种。
(1)drx-On Duration Timer or drx-Inactivity Timer configured for the DRX group is running;
也即,在DRX配置下,唤醒状态持续时长计时器或者非活跃时长计时器的运行时间;
(2)drx-Retransmission Timer DL or drx-Retransmission Timer UL is running on any Serving Cell in the DRX group;
也即,在DRX配置下,下行重传计时器或者上行重传计时器在任意一个服务小区中的运行时间;
(3)ra-Contention Resolution Timer or msgB-ResponseWindow is running;
也即,竞争解决计时器或者消息B的响应窗口运行的时间;
(4)a Scheduling Request is sent on PUCCH and is pending;
也即,当在物理上行控制信道上发送调度请求时或处于未决状态时;
(5)a PDCCH indicating a new transmission addressed to the C-RNTI of the MAC entity has not been received after successful reception of a Random Access Response for the Random Access Preamble not selected by the MAC entity among the contention-based Random Access Preamble;
也即,在终端成功接收到针对第一随机接入前导码Random Access Preamble 的随机接入响应后,确定尚未收到PDCCH指示的用于指示C-RNTI的媒体接入控制MAC实体时的时间资源,确定为激活时间内,其中第一Random Access Preamble不是媒体访问控制控制单元MAC CE从基于竞争的Random Access Preamble中选择的。
在一些可选的实施例中,终端与接入网设备为非连接态,非连接态包括:无线资源控制连接失败(RRC_Inactive)或者空闲(RRC_IDLE)下的终端,配置的DRX与寻呼时机(Paging Occasion,PO)相关联,包括如下至少一个参数。以下参数用于计算寻呼帧(Paging Frame,PF)以及PF的数量。
T:DRX cycle of the UE(T is determined by the shortest of the UE specific DRX value(s),if configured by RRC and/or upper layers,and a default DRX value broadcast in system information.In RRC_IDLE state,if UE specific DRX is not configured by upper layers,the default value is applied);
也即,终端对应的DRX周期。其中,T由终端特定DRX值的最小值(如果由RRC和/或上层配置)和在系统信息中广播的默认DRX值所确定。在终端为非连接状态下,如果终端特定的DRX未由RRC和/或上层配置,则采用默认DRX值。
N:number of total paging frames in T;也即,T中的总寻呼帧数;
Ns:number of paging occasions for a PF;也即,PF的寻呼次数;
PF_offset:offset used for PF determination;也即,PF的时域偏移量;
UE_ID:移动用户识别码(如:5G-S-TMSI mod 1024)。
示意性的,基于上述参数中DRX周期T、PF的时域偏移量以及PF的数目,即可知道终端在一个DRX周期内需要监听寻呼的时域范围。
在一些可选的实施例中,无论是RRC连接态(CONNECTED状态)还是RRC非连接态(Inactive或IDLE状态)的DRX配置下,终端都需要周期性的接收接入网设备发送的下行信号/信道,即周期性出现的On duration时间或PO。后续为了省电,针对连接态的终端,定义了一个新的DCI信令,该DCI信令可以指示接下来的至少一个On Duration可以不用接收接入网设备发送的下行信号/信道;针对非连接态的终端,定义了另一个DCI,该DCI信令可以指示接下来需要接收基站发送的paging的PO,而没有指示的PO,终端不用接收基站发送的Paging。
在非连续接收周期DRX配置下,终端周期性地在唤醒时间内,接收接入网设备发送的下行信号或者下行信道。
在连接态,终端需要按照drx-On Duration Timer进行调度检测。
对于CONNECTED态,接入网设备向终端下发指示信息。当指示信息指示终端在第一drx-On Duration Timer为唤醒状态时,终端需要在唤醒时间醒来监听接入网设备的下行信道/信号,并判断在唤醒时间内是否检测到被调度的下载信号(DownLoad,DL)、上传信号(UpLoad,UL)或者下行控制消息(Down Control Information,DCI),当指示信息指示终端在一个DRX周期内的第二drx-On Duration Timer不处于唤醒状态,终端无需在唤醒时间醒来。
在空闲态,终端需要按照寻呼时机周期醒来并进行寻呼检测。
对于IDLE/INACTIVE态,接入网设备通过Paging Occasion找寻终端。当接入网设备存在需要发送的下行数据或信令时,通过发送寻呼消息(Paging Message)让终端发起无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)连接建立或连接恢复过程,使其重新回到RRC连接态。除此之外,寻呼Paging还可以通过发送寻呼短消息(Short Message)通知网络覆盖下所有状态的终端接收系统消息更新,以及通知其他预警信息。
对于寻呼机制,终端在IDLE/INACTIVE态使用DRX来监听寻呼,并在每个DRX周期内的PO进行监听,PO包含一个或多个物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)的监听时机(monitoring occasions),可以包含一个或多个时隙或符号,这些PDCCH监听时机都可用于发送寻呼控制消息(Paging DCI),其中Paging DCI用于指示终端解码对应的物理下行分享信道(Physical Downlink Shared Channel,PDSCH)来获取Paging Message。
在多波束场景下,Paging DCI需要在同一个PO的多个PDCCH监听时机上重复发送,可以理解为每个PDCCH Monitoring Occasions对应其中某个发送波束。终端基于自身的实现或协议规定的方法,选择其中一个可接收的波束来接收Paging DCI。
对于IDLE/INACTIVE态,接入网设备向终端下发指示信息。当指示信息指示终端在第一PO为唤醒状态时,终端需要在唤醒时间醒来监听接入网设备的paging;当指示信息指示终端在一个DRX周期内的第二PO不处于唤醒状态,终端无需在PO醒来。
示意性的,请参考图2,本公开一个示例性实施例提供的定位信号的传输方法的流程图,以该方法应用于终端为例进行说明,如图2所示,该方法包括如下步骤201至步骤202。
步骤201,确定非连续接收DRX配置下的激活时间内和/或激活时间外。
在一些实施例中,激活时间内用于指示终端被激活的时间范围;激活时间外用于指示终端未被激活的时间范围。其中,确定激活时间内和/或激活时间外包括如下至少一种情况。需要说明一下,DRX的激活时间内和/或激活时间外里的“DRX的”包含“终端在DRX配置下的”意思,可简写成“DRX的”。
(1)确定非连续接收DRX的激活时间内;(2)确定非连续接收DRX的激活时间外;(3)确定非连续接收DRX的激活时间内和非连续接收周期DRX的激活时间外。
接入网设备向终端发送指示信息,终端接收接入网设备发送的指示信息。可选地,指示消息中包括指示终端在非连续接收DRX的唤醒状态或PO的唤醒状态的信息字段。
示意性的,非连续接收DRX在连接态和非连接态下的实现方式是不同的。其中,连接态指示终端与接入网设备建立了RRC连接;非连接态(空闲态)指示终端与接入网设备未建立RRC连接或之前建立过然后释放了。
在一个可选的实施例中,示意性的,根据终端与接入网设备之间的连接状态,终端所接收到的指示信息有所差异。
可选地,响应于终端与接入网设备之间处于连接态,接收第一指示信息。其中,第一指示信息中包括第一信息字段。在一些实施例中,该第一指示信息实现为下行控制信息DCI。
示意性的,在第一指示信息中包括多个信息字段,其中包括第一信息字段,用于指示当终端与接入网设备呈现为连接态时,终端在非连续接收周期DRX的唤醒时间的唤醒状态。可选地,唤醒状态用于指示终端在唤醒时间是否被唤醒。本实施例中,根据终端在DRX配置下的唤醒时间的唤醒状态确定DRX的激活时间内和/或激活时间外。
在一个可选的实施例中,基于第一信息字段,确定终端在DRX配置下的激活时间内和/或激活时间外。
示意性的,第一信息字段用于指示终端在第一DRX周期内的第一drx-on Duration Timer处于唤醒状态;和/或,第一信息字段用于指示终端在第二DRX周期内的第二drx-on Duration Timer不处于唤醒状态。
可选地,响应于终端与接入网设备之间处于非连接态,接收第二指示信息。其中,第二指示信息中包括第二信息字段。在一些实施例中,该第二指示信息实现为下行控制信息DCI。
示意性的,在第二指示信息中包括一个或多个信息字段,其中包括第二信息字段,用于指示当终端与接入网设备呈现为非连接态时,终端在非连续接收周期DRX的一个或多个PO的唤醒状态。可选地,唤醒状态用于指示终端在PO对应的时间是否被唤醒。本实施例中,根据终端在DRX配置下的一个或多个PO的唤醒状态确定DRX的激活时间内和/或激活时间外。
在一个可选的实施例中,基于第二信息字段,确定终端在DRX配置下的激活时间内和/或激活时间外。
示意性的,第二信息字段用于指示终端在第三DRX周期内的第一PO处于唤醒状态;和/或,第二信息字段用于指示终端在第四DRX周期内的第二PO不处于唤醒状态。
值得注意的是,以上仅为示意性的举例,本申请实施例对此不加以限定。
步骤202,在DRX配置下的激活时间内和/或激活时间外对应的时域资源位置传输定位信号。
示意性的,在传统方式中,终端仅在DRX配置下的激活时间内,对定位信号进行传输,而在DRX配置下的激活时间外,对定位信号并不进行传输。然而,如果终端在长时间的激活时间外不对定位信号进行接收,很容易导致定位时延较大、定位精度较差情况发生。
可选地,定位信号包括定位参考信号PRS和探测参考信号SRS中的至少一种。
示意性的,除上述提及的PRS以及SRS以外,定位信号还包括相位跟踪参考信号(PTRS,Phase Tracking Reference Signal)、解调参考信号(DMRS,Demodulation Reference Signal)、信道状态信息参考信号(CSI-RS,Channel State Information-Reference Signal)或其他新定义的用于定位的其他信号,本申请实施例对此不加以限定。
在一些可选的实施例中,定位信号的传输包括发送定位信号和接收定位信号中的至少一种。
示意性的,发送定位信号,用于指示终端在确定的时域资源位置上,发送定位信号,如:终端在确定的时域资源位置上,发送SRS;接收定位信号,用于指示终端在确定的时域资源位置上,接收接入网设备发送的定位信号。
可选地,在接收定位信号之后还包括,发送定位报告。也即,终端接收到定位信号,对定位信号进行定位测量并生成定位报告后,向核心网设备发送定位报告。
在一些可选的实施例中,当终端发送定位信号时,接入网设备对接收到的定位信号进行定位测量后,向核心网设备发送定位报告。
值得注意的是,以上仅为示意性的举例,本申请实施例对此不加以限定。
综上所述,根据终端在非连续接收周期DRX所确定的激活时间内和/或激活时间外的差异,有选择地确定定位信号的时域资源位置,对定位信号进行传输,提高对终端进行定位检测时的定位精度。
在一些可选的实施例中,当终端与接入网设备为连接态时,激活时间内和激活时间外是基于终端在DRX周期内的drx-on Duration Timer而确定的。示意性的,如图3所示,上述步骤201至步骤202还可以实现为如下步骤301至步骤304。
步骤301,响应于终端与接入网设备之间处于连接态,接收第一指示信息。
其中,第一指示信息中包括用于指示终端在DRX配置下的唤醒时间的唤醒状态的第一信息字段。示意性的,第一指示信息中的第一信息字段,用于指示当终端与接入网设备呈现为连接态时,终端在非连续接收周期DRX的唤醒时间的唤醒状态。
可选地,唤醒状态用于指示终端的唤醒情况,根据唤醒状态确定终端在DRX配置下的激活时间内和/或激活时间外。其中,激活时间内表示终端为被唤醒状态。
步骤302,基于第一信息字段,确定终端在DRX配置下的激活时间内。
其中,第一信息字段用于指示终端在第一DRX周期内的第一drx-on Duration Timer处于唤醒状态;和/或,第一信息字段用于指示终端在第二DRX 周期内的第二drx-on Duration Timer不处于唤醒状态。
示意性的,在连接态DRX的工作模式下,终端不能一直关闭接收机,而是需要周期性地打开接收机,并在开始之后一段时间内持续侦听可能到来的信令,上述时间段即称为On Duration,即终端在on duration时间段需要醒来监听接入网设备的信道/信号。On Duration由定时器On Duration Timer控制。可选地,On Duration时段的时长可通过参数进行配置。
其中,DRX周期用于描述DRX状态下两次On Duration出现的间隔时长,每一个DRX周期由一个On Duration和一个可能存在的休眠期组成。示意性的,如图4所示,为一个DRX周期的示意图,其中,时长401为On Duration对应的时长;时长402为DRX周期内除On Duration时长之外的时长。
可选地,On Duration为预先确定的时域范围。示意性的,终端根据接入网设备下发的指示信息,确定是否开启On Duration Timer。例如:当终端接收到的第一指示字段中指示终端开启On Duration Timer,则在On Duration的初始时刻,终端开启On Duration Timer,并对On Duration时长进行控制,并在On Duration的终止时刻,关闭On Duration Timer。
示意性的,如图5所示,为第一DRX周期内的第一drx-on Duration Timer处于唤醒状态的示意图。终端接收接入网设备下发的第一指示信息,第一指示信息中的第一指示字段中指示终端在第一DRX周期的第一drx-on Duration Timer处于唤醒状态,则开启On Duration Timer。其中,On区域501用于指示On Duration,基于On Duration的含义,每一个DRX周期对应一个On Duration。其中,第一DRX周期的开始时刻502,对应为接收到对On Duration Timer进行开启的时刻。在On Duration内,终端对接入网设备下发的信道/信号进行接收。
示意性的,终端接收接入网设备下发的第一指示信息,第一指示信息中的第一指示字段中指示终端在第二DRX周期的第二drx-on Duration Timer不处于唤醒状态,则不开启On Duration Timer。
可选地,根据第一drx-on Duration Timer的启动状态确定终端在DRX配置下的激活时间内,如:将第一drx-on Duration Timer内的时间资源确定为激活时间内。
其中,针对激活时间内的确定方式在后续实施例中进行详细说明,此处不再赘述。
步骤303,基于第一信息字段,确定终端在DRX配置下的激活时间外。
示意性的,激活时间外表示激活时间内之外的时间,也即,在时域范围内,将除激活时间内之外的时域范围确定为激活时间外。
可选地,在确定激活时间内后,将除激活时间内以外的时间资源作为激活时间外;或者,根据第一信息字段所指示的终端在DRX配置下的唤醒状态,选取部分时间资源作为激活时间外。
可选地,根据第二drx-on Duration Timer确定终端在DRX配置下的激活时间外,如:将第二drx-on Duration Timer内的时间资源确定为激活时间外。
其中,针对激活时间外的确定方式在后续实施例中进行详细说明,此处不再赘述。
步骤304,在DRX配置下的激活时间内和/或激活时间外对应的时域资源位置传输定位信号。
在一些实施例中,在激活时间内对应的时域资源位置传输定位信号。
在一些实施例中,在激活时间外对应的时域资源位置传输定位信号。
在一些实施例中,在激活时间内对应的时域资源位置和激活时间外对应的时域资源位置传输定位信号。
综上所述,根据终端在DRX所确定的激活时间内和/或激活时间外的差异,有选择地确定定位信号的时域资源位置,对定位信号进行传输,提高对终端进行定位检测时的定位精度。
在本申请实施例中,对终端与接入网设备为连接态的情况进行了说明,当终端与接入网设备为连接态时,接入网设备向终端发送包括第一信息字段的第一指示信息,终端根据第一信息字段所指示的终端在第一DRX周期内的第一持续时长计时器drx-on Duration Timer处于唤醒状态;和/或,终端在第二DRX周期内的第二drx-on Duration Timer不处于唤醒状态,确定激活时间内和/或激活时间外,并可以在激活时间内和/或激活时间外传输定位信号。避免了终端仅能在激活时间内接收定位信号,在保持非连续接收所对应的定位信号的传输优势的基础上,利用与连接态相关联的唤醒时间情况,灵活确定激活时间内和/或激活时间外,降低定位信号的时延,提高定位精度。
在一个可选的实施例中,在终端与接入网设备为连接态的条件下,上述激 活时间内以及激活时间外的确定过程如下所示。
(一)连接状态下,确定激活时间内
1.1将第一drx-on Duration Timer内的时间资源确定为激活时间内。
示意性的,如图5所示,在第一DRX周期内,第一指示字段(DCI)指示终端在第一DRX周期内的第一drx-on Duration Timer处于唤醒状态,即在第一DRX周期内,终端开启On Duration Timer,并确定On Duration Timer所控制得到的时间资源On Duration,也即,确定图5中On区域501所对应的时间资源。
在一些实施例中,在On Duration所对应的时长内,终端未接收到调度指令,也即,终端在On Duration时长内,未接收到调度自身(终端)的下行指令或者上行指令,如:图5中On区域501所对应的时间资源内,终端未接收到调度指令。
可选地,将第一drx-on Duration Timer内的时间资源On Duration作为激活时间内的一种情况,也即,将图5中On区域501所对应的时域范围作为激活时间内的一种情况。
1.2将第一DRX周期内的非活跃时长计时器drx-Inactivity Timer内的时间资 源确定为激活时间内。
示意性的,如图6所示,在第一DRX周期内,根据第一指示字段(DCI)所指示的终端在第一drx-on Duration Timer处于唤醒状态,即在第一DRX周期内,终端开启On Duration Timer,并确定On Duration Timer所控制得到的时间资源On Duration,也即,确定图6中On区域601所对应的时间资源。
在一些实施例中,在On Duration所对应的时长内,终端接收到调度指令,也即,终端在On Duration时长内,接收到调度自身(终端)的下行指令或者上行指令,如:图6中On区域601所对应的时间范围内,终端接收到调度指令。

其中,Random Access Response是针对第一Random Access Preamble的接入响应,而第一Random Access Preamble不是MAC CE从基于竞争的Random Access Preamble中选择的。
示意性的,由于终端的移动性,终端与接入网设备之间的距离是不确定的,如果终端需要发送消息到接入网设备,则需要实时进行上行同步的维持管理。其中,上行同步的过程通过物理随机接入通道(PRACH,Physical Random Access Channel)实现,PRACH用于传输随机接入前导码(RAP,Random Access Preamble),终端在PRACH中传输RAP,从而建立与接入网设备之间的同步关系,进而可以请求接入网设备向终端分配专用资源,进行数据传输过程。

或者,如图6所示,在第一DRX周期内,若确定激活时间内为On区域601所对应的时间范围以及Inactivity Timer 602所对应的时间范围,则将在第一DRX周期内除On区域601所对应的时间范围以及Inactivity Timer 602所对应的时间范围以外的时域范围,作为激活时间外对应的时间范围。
在本申请实施例中,对终端与接入网设备为连接态的条件下,通过第一信息字段对终端在DRX周期内drx-on Duration Timer的唤醒情况,对激活时间内以及激活时间外的确定进行了说明。在通过drx-on Duration Timer确定激活时间内时,不仅考虑了唤醒状态下终端的On Duration,还考虑了终端在On Duration内可能接收到的调度指令,并由此确定激活时间内;此外,Retransmission指令、ra-Contention Resolution Timer的监听情况、MsgB-Response Window等运行情况,也可能对激活时间内产生影响。在通过唤醒时间确定激活时间外时,不仅能够将drx-on Duration Timer不处于唤醒状态下终端的On Duration作为激活时间外,还可以在确定激活时间内后,将DRX周期内除激活时间内以外的时间范围作为激活时间外对应的时间范围,从而更全面地确定激活时间内和/或激活时间外。
在一些可选的实施例中,当终端与接入网设备为非连接态时,激活时间内和激活时间外是根据终端在DRX周期内的PO而确定的。示意性的,如图8所示,上述步骤201至步骤202还可以实现为如下步骤801至步骤804。
步骤801,响应于终端与接入网设备之间处于非连接态,接收第二指示信息。
其中,第二指示信息中包括用于指示终端在DRX配置下的PO的唤醒状态的第二信息字段。其中唤醒状态也可以理解为对PO处于监听状态。
示意性的,在第二指示信息中包括多个信息字段,不同的信息字段指示终端的不同状态。例如,第二指示信息中的第二信息字段,用于指示当终端与接入网设备呈现为非连接态时,终端在非连续接收周期DRX的PO的唤醒状态。可选地,唤醒状态用于指示终端是否被唤醒。
步骤802,基于第二信息字段,确定终端在DRX配置下的激活时间内。
其中,第二信息字段用于指示终端在第三DRX周期内的第一PO处于唤醒状态;和/或,第二信息字段用于指示终端在第四DRX周期内的第二PO不处于唤醒状态。
在一些实施例中,终端在非连接态时,需要监听接入网设备发送的寻呼(Paging),在终端使用DRX机制时,终端在每一个DRX周期内需要检测一个PO或多个PO。
可选地,监听寻呼时机包含DRX周期内,终端需要进行监听的PO,这些PO称为监听寻呼时机。第二指示信息用于指示监听情况,监听情况包括需要监听哪些PO和/或不需要监听哪些PO,也即,监听情况包括:接入网设备指示终端对第一PO进行监听,和/或,接入网设备指示终端对第二PO不进行监听。
示意性的,终端接收接入网设备下发的第二指示信息,第二指示信息中的第二信息字段中指示终端在第三DRX周期监听第一PO,则终端在第一PO处于唤醒状态。
示意性的,终端接收接入网设备下发的第二指示信息,第二指示信息中的第二信息字段中指示终端在第四DRX周期不监听第二PO,则终端在第二PO不处于唤醒状态。在一个可选的实施例中,在终端接收到第二信息字段后,根据第二信息字段所指示的PO的唤醒状态,确定终端在DRX配置下的激活时间内。
示意性的,当第二信息字段指示终端在第三DRX周期内的第一PO处于唤 醒状态,将第一PO对应的时间资源确定为激活时间内;或者,将第一PO对应的随机接入时间资源确定为激活时间内。其中,针对激活时间内的确定方式在后续实施例中进行详细说明,此处不再赘述。
步骤803,基于第二信息字段,确定终端在DRX配置下的激活时间外。
可选地,将终端在DRX配置下的激活时间内以外的时间资源,作为激活时间外对应的时间资源。
可选地,针对激活时间外的确定方式在后续实施例中进行详细说明,此处不再赘述。
步骤804,在DRX配置下的激活时间内和/或激活时间外对应的时域资源位置传输定位信号。
在一些实施例中,在激活时间内对应的时域资源位置传输定位信号。
在一些实施例中,在激活时间外对应的时域资源位置传输定位信号。
在一些实施例中,在激活时间内对应的时域资源位置和激活时间外对应的时域资源位置传输定位信号。
综上所述,根据终端在DRX所确定的激活时间内和/或激活时间外的差异,有选择地确定定位信号的时域资源位置,从而对定位信号进行传输,提高对终端进行定位检测时的定位精度。
在本申请实施例中,对终端与接入网设备为非连接态的情况进行了说明,当终端与接入网设备为非连接态时,接入网设备向终端发送包括第二信息字段的第二指示信息,终端根据第二信息字段所指示的终端在DRX配置下的唤醒时间,确定激活时间内和/或激活时间外,并可以在激活时间内以及激活时间外中的至少一种时间内,传输定位信号。避免了终端仅能在激活时间内接收定位信号,在保持非连续接收所对应的定位信号的传输优势的基础上,利用与非连接态相关联的寻呼时机监视情况,灵活确定激活时间内和/或激活时间外,降低定位信号的时延,提高定位精度。
在一个可选的实施例中,在终端与接入网设备为非连接态的条件下,上述激活时间内以及激活时间外的确定过程如下所示。
(一)非连接状态下,确定激活时间内
3.1将第一PO对应的时间资源确定为激活时间内。
示意性的,如图9所示,在第三DRX周期内,根据第二信息字段所指示的终端在第三DRX周期内对第一PO进行监听,确定被监听的寻呼时机所对应的时间资源为激活时间内,也即,确定图9中第一PO区域901所对应的时间资源为激活时间内。
在一些实施例中,在第一PO区域901所对应的时间资源内,不存在寻呼指示,如:图9中第一PO区域901所对应的时间资源内,终端未接收到寻呼指示。
可选地,将监听寻呼时机对应的时间资源确定为激活时间内,也即,将图9中PO区域901所对应的时间资源作为激活时间内的一种情况。

(二)非连接状态下,确定激活时间外
4.1将第三DRX周期内除第一PO以外的时间资源确定为激活时间外。
可选地,终端接收到的接入网设备发送的第二信息字段中,指示终端在第三DRX周期内对第一PO进行监听,则将第三DRX周期内除第一PO以外的时间资源,确定为激活时间外。
示意性的,如图11所示,在第三DRX周期内,终端根据第二信息字段的指示在第三DRX周期内对第一PO1101进行监听,则在第三DRX周期内,将除第一PO1101以外的时间资源1102确定为激活时间外,也即,将除第一PO1101以外的时间资源1102作为激活时间外的一种情况。
也即,对于某些DRX周期,DCI指示终端在至少一个PO时间监听Paging,则激活时间外指示DRX周期中除了需要监听Paging的至少一个PO之外的时间,即:若定位信号时域资源不在该DRX周期的需要监听Paging的PO时间,终端也需要传输定位信号。示意性的,如图11中除PO1101之外的时间(时间资源1102),或者,如图10中除第一PO1001和随机接入时间资源1002的时间。
4.2将第四DRX周期内的第二PO对应的时间资源确定为激活时间外。
可选地,在第四DRX周期内,在终端接收到接入网设备发送的第二信息字段中,指示终端不对第二PO进行监听,则将第四DRX周期内的第二PO对应的时间资源确定为激活时间外。
示意性的,如图12所示,在第四DRX周期开始时,终端接收到对第二PO1201不进行监听,则将第四DRX周期内的第二PO1201对应的时间资源确定为激活时间外,也即,将第二PO1201对应的时间资源作为激活时间外的一种情况。即:定位信号在第二PO时间发送,终端在第二PO时间虽然不需要监听paging,但需要传输定位信号。
也即,对于某些DRX周期,DCI指示终端在所有PO时间都不需要监听Paging,则激活时间外指示DRX周期中该终端对应的PO时间。示意性的,如图12中的PO1201对应的时间。即:定位信号在PO时间发送,终端在PO时间虽然不需要监听paging,但需要传输定位信号。
4.3将第四DRX周期内除第二PO以外的时域资源确定为激活时间外。
可选地,在第四DRX周期内,在终端接收到接入网设备发送的第二信息字段中,指示终端在第四DRX周期内不对第二PO进行监听,则将第四DRX周期内的第二PO以外的时间资源确定为激活时间外。
示意性的,如图13所示,在第四DRX周期开始时,终端接收到对第二PO1301不进行监听(即:对第四DRX周期内的第二PO1301不进行监听),则将第四DRX周期内,除第二PO1301对应的时间资源以外的时间资源1302确定为激活时间外,也即,将除第二PO1301对应的时间资源1302作为激活时间外的一种情况。
在一些实施例中,对于某些DRX周期,DCI指示终端在所有PO时间都不需要监听Paging,则激活时间外指示DRX周期中除该终端对应的所有PO时间以外的时间。示意性的,如图13中除PO1301对应的时间以外的时间1302。即:定位信号在PO时间外发送,终端在PO时间外虽然不需要监听Paging,但需要传输定位信号。
4.4在确定上述激活时间内后,将DRX周期内,除激活时间内之外的其他 时间作为激活时间外。
示意性的,如图9所示,在第三DRX周期内,若将第一PO区域901所对应的时间资源确定为激活时间内,则将在第三DRX周期内除第一PO区域901以外的时间范围确定为激活时间外。
在本申请实施例中,对终端与接入网设备为非连接态的条件下,通过寻呼时机的监听情况对激活时间内以及激活时间外的确定进行了说明。在通过监听寻呼时机确定激活时间内时,不仅考虑了监听寻呼时机对应的时域资源,还考虑了终端在对寻呼时机进行监听时,若寻呼时机存在寻呼指示,确定寻呼指示对应的随机接入时间资源位置,并由此确定激活时间内。在通过监听寻呼时机确定激活时间外时,不仅能够根据监听寻呼时机确定激活时间外,还可以在确定激活时间内后,将DRX周期内除激活时间内以外的时间范围作为激活时间外,从而更全面地确定激活时间内和/或激活时间外。

在一些实施例中,基于第二信息字段所指示的终端在DRX配置下的PO的唤醒状态,确定终端在DRX配置下的激活时间内和/或激活时间外。示意性的,终端在接收到第二信息字段后,根据第二信息字段所指示的终端在DRX配置下的PO对应的时间是否被唤醒,确定终端在DRX配置下的激活时间内和/或激活时间外。
