随着无线通信技术的发展,各国在不断对5G频谱进行授权或拍卖,例如,如图1所示,在Rel-16阶段A国家运营商在3.5G上占有的频谱由3700-3980MHz,又扩展了3450-3550MHz一段频谱。在Rel-17阶段,B国家运营商拥有的频谱从3450-3650MHz扩展到了3450-3980MHz,也就是说新增加了一段频谱3650-3980MHz。
为了使终端设备满足当地通信法规,在给终端设备发放牌照之前,会采用软件上锁的方式,限制终端设备只能工作在当地授权的频谱上。这样市场上就会出现不同受限的终端设备。例如,在A国家的网络中会存在以下终端设备:
仅支持original n77UE(3700-3980MHz)=>“legacy A UE(即A国家的已有UE)”
支持扩展频谱的n77UE(3450-3550MHz and 3700-3980MHz)=>“new A UE(即A国家的新UE)”
以及“legacy global UE”and“new global UE”(3300-4200MHz)。
同样在A国家会存在以下三种网络:
仅支持original n77的network(3700-3980MHz)=>legacy network
仅支持扩展频普的n77的network(3450-3550MHz)=>new network
支持扩展频谱后的n77的network(3450-3550MHz and 3700-3980MHz)=>new network。
综上,网络中会存在多种类型的终端设备,如special A UE(即A国家的特殊UE),special B UE,以及global full UE。在连接态网络无法区分不同的终端设备,会导致终端设备小区切换过程中出现问题。在Rel-16,终端设备可以通过终端能力指示是A国家的new UE支持扩展后的频段,如果此信令缺省,则代表终端设备是legacy UE(即已有终端设备)只支持扩展前的频谱。
相关技术中,在Rel-16中,通过终端能力指示(如IE extendedBand-n77-r16)来指示终端设备是否 支持扩展后的频谱。然而,如果对于频段n77其他国家也有限制终端设备只能工作在当地授权的频谱上,然后随着频谱的拍卖,频谱得到了扩展,例如目前B国家和A国家的情况,或者A国家的频谱再一次扩展。目前的方法需要针对不同的国家不同时期的频谱扩展来不断的定义新的终端能力,来使终端设备上报是否支持新扩展后的频谱,而且每次针对不同国家不同扩展来定义新的终端能力,也会有漫游的问题,如new A UE漫游到B国家,B国家基站是否认识A国家终端的能力。如果其他国家在其他频段上也有此要求,又会像频段n77一样再次重复定义此能力。
为此,本申请提出了一种新的终端能力上报方法,使得所有类型的终端设备不仅可以上报其具体支持的频谱范围,还可以指示支持几次频谱扩展,以及是否是地区独特的终端设备(specific UE),是什么区域的独特的终端设备(specific UE),从而使得网络侧设备获知该终端设备的终端类型,进而可以在该终端设备支持的频谱范围上进行相关配置,以避免终端设备小区切换过程中出现问题。

本申请实施例中的终端设备202是用户侧的一种用于接收或发射信号的实体,如手机。终端设备也可以称为终端设备(terminal)、用户设备(user equipment,UE)、移动台(mobile station,MS)、移动终端设备(mobile terminal,MT)等。终端设备可以是具备通信功能的汽车、智能汽车、手机(mobile phone)、穿戴式设备、平板电脑(Pad)、带无线收发功能的电脑、虚拟现实(virtual reality,VR)终端设备、增强现实(augmented reality,AR)终端设备、工业控制(industrial control)中的无线终端设备、无人驾驶(self-driving)中的无线终端设备、远程手术(remote medical surgery)中的无线终端设备、智能电网(smart grid)中的无线终端设备、运输安全(transportation safety)中的无线终端设备、智慧城市(smart city)中的无线终端设备、智慧家庭(smart home)中的无线终端设备等等。本申请的 实施例对终端设备所采用的具体技术和具体设备形态不做限定。

通过实施本申请实施例,可以通过新的终端能力向网络侧设备上报终端设备支持频谱范围等的相关信息,以使得网络侧设备获知该终端设备的终端类型,从而在该终端设备支持的频谱范围上进行相关配置,以避免终端设备小区切换过程中出现问题。
需要说明的是,在本申请的一些实施例中,通过第一信令向网络侧设备发送能力上报信息;能力上报信息用于上报终端设备支持的频段相关信息;其中,该第一信令可以包括第一比特位图,该第一比特位图之中每个比特位分别对应至少一个国家代码和/或一个频谱范围,该第一比特位图中置为有效的比特位和该置为有效的比特位数组合指示该终端设备支持的频段相关信息。作为一种示例,该第一比特位图的长度可为5,每个比特位的位置可以用索引号来表示,比如该索引号可包括{0,1,2,3,4},代表该第一比特位图中包括5个比特位。在本公开的所有实施例中,示例性的,如果将一个比特位置为1,则认为该比特位置为有效;在后续实施方式中都以此为例进行说明;当然,也可以确定一个比特位置为0则认为该比特位置为有效。
也就是说,该第一信令可以采用比特位图(bitmap)的形式,其中,该比特位图之中每个比特bit位分别代表终端设备在所支持频段上支持的频谱范围,比特bit位与频谱范围的映射关系可以通过定义 的方式来进一步指示终端的类型(如A国家UE or B国家UE or全球global UE)以及该终端设备是new UE(新版本UE)or legacy UE(已有版本UE),所支持的NS值中的一个或多个等。
举例而言,以频段n77为例,结合下面表格1和表格2,来描述基于第一信令上报终端设备支持的频段相关信息的实现方式。
表格1 第一比特位图中每个比特位与频谱范围和国家代码的映射关系
Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-r17 频段范围for n77 Countrycode
0(最左边的比特位) Full(全部覆盖) Global(全球)
1 3700-3980MHz A
2 3450-3550MHz A,C
3 3450-3650MHz B
4 3650-3980MHz B,C
可以理解的是,上述的表格1中的每一个元素都是独立存在的,这些元素被示例性的列在同一张表格中,但是并不代表表格中的所有元素必须根据表格中所示的同时存在。其中每一个元素的值,是不依赖于表格1中任何其他元素值。因此本领域内技术人员可以理解,该表格1中的每一个元素的取值都是一个独立的实施例。需要说明的是,本公开实施例中包括多个表格,而其中的每一个表格都与表格1相似的,是将多个独立的实施例合并在了同一张表格中,而这些表格中的每一个元素也应当被认为是一个独立的实施例。
表格2 置为有效(例如置1)的bit位以及bit数组合指示终端所属国家、终端版本以及支持的NS值
Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-r17 legacyUE(终端版本) NS value
0 legacy/new global UE  
1 legacyA UE  
1,2 new A UE NS_55
3 legacy B UE  
3,4 new B UE NS_XX
2 legacy C UE  
2,4 new C UE NS_YY
需要说明的是,对于一个频段的不同的频谱范围可以采用不同的bit位来映射,不同的国家使用相同的频谱范围,则可以采用相同的bit位来映射,不同国家使用不同的频谱范围则需要使用不同的bit位来映射。Legacy UE(如Rel-15的UE)只有1个bit位置1,new specific UE(如Rel-16及以后的specific UE)有2个或多个bit位置1来表示。还需要说明的是,对于早期Rel-15版本的终端设备,可以通过软件升级的方式来支持上报本申请实施例的能力上报信息,以通过该能力上报信息向网络侧设备上报该终端设备支持的频段相关信息。
由上述表格1和表格2可知,索引号为0(即第一比特位图中第1个bit位)的bit位比较特殊,索引号为0的bit置1,则代表终端设备是支持全频段的legacy/new global UE终端。
索引号为1的bit位(即第一比特位图中第2个bit位)置1,则代表终端设备是支持频谱范围为3700-3980MHz的A UE,除NS_01无NS value(NS值)支持,如仅支持网络信令NS_01。
索引号为1和2的bit位(即第一比特位图中第2个和第3个bit位)置1,则代表终端设备支持频谱范围为3450-3550MHz和3700-3980MHz的new A UE,相应支持的NS_value为NS_55。
索引号为3的bit位(即第一比特位图中第4个bit位)置1,则代表终端设备支持频谱范围为3450-3650MHz的B UE,除NS_01无NS value支持,如仅支持网络信令NS_01。
索引号为3和4的bit位(即第一比特位图中第4个和第5个bit位)置1,则代表终端设备支持频谱范围为3450-3980MHz的new B UE,相应支持的NS_value为NS_XX(如NS_56)。
针对网络侧设备,以终端设备发送的第一信令之中第一比特位图中第一个bit(即索引号为0的bit位)置1为例,网络侧设备可以确定该终端设备为支持全频段的global UE。
以终端设备发送的第一信令之中只有一个bit位置1(索引号为0的bit位除外)为例,网络侧设备可以获知该终端设备是一个legacy specific终端。并且根据置1的bit位的位置可以获知该终端设备是A国家,还是B国家,或者C国家的legacy specific UE。
以终端设备发送的第一信令之中有两个bit位置1为例,网络侧设备可以获知该终端设备是一个支持一次扩展频谱的new specific终端。通过这两个置1的bit位的位置组合,可以获知该终端设备是A国家,还是B国家,或者C国家的new specific UE,以及支持的NS value。
以终端设备发送的第一信令之中有三个bit位置1为例,网络侧设备可以获知该终端设备是一个支持两次扩展频谱的new specific终端。通过这三个置1的bit位的位置组合,可以获知该终端设备是哪里的new specific UE,以及支持的NS value。以此类推,在此不再穷举。
又如,假如目前C国家使用的频谱范围为3450-3550MHz,然后扩展为3450-3550MHz和3650-3980MHz,则网络侧设备可以通过广播NS_YY(如NS_57)来通知终端设备支持3650-3980MHz。那么终端设备的能力上报信息可为:
索引号为2的bit(即第一比特位图中第3个bit位)置1,代表终端设备支持频谱范围为3450-3550MHz的legacy C UE,除NS_01无NS value支持,如仅支持网络信令NS_01。
索引号为2和4的bit(即第一比特位图中第3个和第5个bit位)置1,代表终端设备支持频谱范围为3450-3550MHz和3650-3980MHz的new C UE,相应支持的NS_value为NS_YY(如NS_57)。
需要说明的是,为了能够支持所有类型的终端设备不仅可以上报支持的频段相关信息,本申请的技术方案可以实现后向兼容。可选地,在本申请的一些实施例中,可以通过第一信令和第二信令向网络侧设备发送该能力上报信息以上报终端设备支持的频段相关信息。
其中,在本申请的实施例中,该第一信令可以包括第一比特位图,该第一比特位图之中每个比特位分别对应至少一个国家代码和/或一个频谱范围;该第二信令可以包括第二比特位图,该第二比特位图之中每个比特位分别对应至少一个国家代码和/或一个频谱范围;其中,该第一比特位图中比特位对应的频谱范围与该第二比特位图中比特位对应的频谱范围不同;这两个比特位图(即第一比特位图和第二比特位图)中置为有效的比特位和该置为有效的比特位数组合指示该终端设备支持的频段相关信息。
举例而言,如果在以后的发布版本需要进一步在现有频段上进行扩展,如需要扩展终端能力,如重新定义新的信令(如第二信令),其中该第二信令可以为比特位图的形式,该比特位图中的每个比特位 分别对应至少一个国家代码和一个频谱范围。例如,该第二信令可表示为Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-rxx,结合下面表格3和表格4,来描述后向兼容性问题:
表格3
Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-rxx 频段范围for n77 Countrycode
0(最左边的比特位) 3300-3440MHz A
表格4
Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-rxx legacyUE NS value
0 new A UE NS_ZZ
在本申请的实施例中,可以根据终端设备自身归属的终端类型,通过第一信令和第二信令向网络侧设备发送能力上报信息,该能力上报信息可以用于指示该终端设备支持的频段相关信息。例如,可以根据终端类型,基于上述表格1、表格2确定第一信令中每个bit位的值,以及基于上述表格3和表格4确定第二信令中每个bit位的值,进而终端设备可以通过该第一信令和第二信令组合向网络侧设备上报该终端设备所支持的频段相关信息。
由此可见,对于在以后的发布版本需要进一步在现有频段上进行扩展,可以扩展终端能力信息元素(如第二信令),结合第一信令与第二信令组合指示终端设备支持的频段相关信息,从而实现后向兼容性问题。
可以理解,上述实施例是从终端设备侧描述本申请实施例的终端能力上报方法的实现方式。本申请实施例还提出了一种终端能力确定方法,下面将从网络侧设备描述该终端能力确定方法的实现方式。请参见图4,图4是本申请实施例提供的一种终端能力确定方法的流程图。需要说明的是,本申请实施例的终端能力确定方法可由网络侧设备执行,也就是说,本申请实施例的终端能力确定方法可从网络侧设备描述。如图4所示,该终端能力确定方法可以包括但不限于如下步骤。
在步骤401中,接收终端设备通过第一信令发送的能力上报信息;能力上报信息用于指示终端设备支持的频段相关信息。
可选地,网络侧设备可以接收终端设备通过第一信令发送的能力上报信息。其中,该能力上报信息用于指示该终端设备所支持的频段相关信息。例如,终端设备可以根据该终端设备所归属的终端类型,通过第一信令来向网络侧设备发送该能力上报信息,具体实现方式可采用本申请的各实施例中的任一种方式实现,本申请实施例并不对此作出限定,也不再赘述。
其中,在本申请的实施例中,该频段相关信息可以包括以下至少一项:至少一个频谱范围;国家代码;终端版本;网络信令NS值。可以理解,该频段相关信息还可以包括其他信息,具体可根据实际情况来决定,对此本申请不做具体。
作为一种可能实现方式的示例,该频段相关信息可以包括:至少一个频谱范围,或者,国家代码,或者,终端版本,或者,网络信令NS值。
作为一种可能实现方式的示例,该频段相关信息可以包括:至少一个频谱范围和国家代码;或者,该频段相关信息可以包括:至少一个频谱范围和终端版本;或者,该频段相关信息可以包括:至少一个 频谱范围和网络信令NS值;或者,该频段相关信息可以包括:国家代码和终端版本;或者,该频段相关信息可以包括:国家代码和网络信令NS值;或者,该频段相关信息可以包括:终端版本和网络信令NS值。
作为另一种可能实现方式的示例,该频段相关信息可以包括:至少一个频谱范围,国家代码和终端版本。或者,该频段相关信息可以包括:至少一个频谱范围,国家代码和网络信令NS值。或者,该频段相关信息可以包括:至少一个频谱范围,终端版本和网络信令NS值。或者,该频段相关信息可以包括:国家代码,终端版本和网络信令NS值。
作为另一种可能实现方式的示例,该频段相关信息可以包括:至少一个频谱范围,国家代码,终端版本和网络信令NS值。
在步骤402中,根据能力上报信息,确定终端设备的终端类型。
可选地,网络侧设备在接收到终端设备发送的能力上报信息时,可以根据该能力上报信息确定该终端的终端类型。其中,在本申请的实施例中,该终端设备的终端类型可以包括以下至少一项:终端设备归属的国家区域;终端设备在所支持频段上支持的频谱范围;终端设备的终端版本;终端设备支持的NS值。本申请实施例中的终端类型与频段相关信息的内容对应关系可参见终端设备侧的各方法实施例中的描述,本申请实施例并不对此作出限定,也不再赘述。
需要说明的是,在本申请的一些实施例中,上述能力上报信息可以为按照频段粒度指示的信息。可选的,不同的频段对应不同的能力上报信息,例如频段n77,对应一种能力上报信息,频段n78对应另一种能力上报信息。
例如,在Rel-17中,引用新的终端能力(即上述第一信令),通过该第一信令向网络侧设备上报终端设备支持的频段相关信息。作为一种示例,该第一信令可表示如下:IESupportedfrequencyrangeofband-r17。这样,可以利用该第一信令向网络侧设备上报该终端设备支持的频段相关信息,比如支持频谱范围等的相关信息。
需要说明的是,在本申请的一些实施例中,针对能力上报信息用于指示终端设备支持的频段相关信息的情况,该第一信令可以包括第一比特位图,该第一比特位图之中每个比特位分别对应至少一个国家代码和/或一个频谱范围,该第一比特位图中置为有效的比特位和该置为有效的比特位数组合指示该终端设备支持的频段相关信息。作为一种示例,该第一比特位图的长度可为5,每个比特位的位置可以用索引号来表示,比如该索引号可包括{0,1,2,3,4},代表该第一比特位图中包括5个比特位。
也就是说,该第一信令可以采用比特位图(bitmap)的形式,其中,该比特位图之中每个比特bit位分别代表终端设备在所支持频段上支持的频谱范围,比特bit位与频谱范围的映射关系可以通过定义的方式来进一步指示终端的类型(如A国家UE or B国家UE or全球global UE)以及该终端设备是new UE(新版本UE)or legacy UE(已有版本UE),所支持的NS值中的一个或多个等。
举例而言,以频段n77为例,结合上面表格1和表格2,来描述通过第一信令上报终端设备支持的频段相关信息后,网络侧设备是如何确定终端设备的终端类型。网络侧设备在接收到终端设备通过第一信令发送的能力上报信息之后,可以根据该第一信令之中第一比特位图中置为有效的比特位和该置为有效的比特位数,确定该终端设备的终端类型。
例如,以终端设备发送的第一信令之中第一比特位图中第一个bit(即索引号为0的bit位)置1为 例,网络侧设备可以确定该终端设备为支持全频段的global UE。
又如,以终端设备发送的第一信令之中只有一个bit位置1(索引号为0的bit位除外)为例,网络侧设备可以确定该终端设备是一个legacy specific终端。并且根据置1的bit位的位置可以获知该终端设备是A国家,还是B国家,或者C国家的legacy specific UE。
又如,以终端设备发送的第一信令之中有两个bit位置1为例,网络侧设备可以获知该终端设备是一个支持一次扩展频谱的new specific终端。通过这两个置1的bit位的位置组合,可以获知该终端设备是A国家,还是B国家,或者C国家的new specific UE,以及支持的NS值。
再如,以终端设备发送的第一信令之中有三个bit位置1为例,网络侧设备可以获知该终端设备是一个支持两次扩展频谱的new specific终端。通过这三个置1的bit位的位置组合,可以获知该终端设备是哪里的new specific UE,以及支持的NS值。以此类推,在此不再穷举。
需要说明的是,为了能够支持所有类型的终端设备不仅可以上报支持的频段相关信息,本申请可以实现后向兼容。可选地,在本申请的一些实施例中,网络侧设备可以接收终端设备通过第一信令和第二信令发送的能力上报信息;该能力上报信息用于指示终端设备支持的频段相关信息。网络侧设备在接收到该能力上报信息时,可以根据该能力上报信息,确定终端设备的终端类型。
其中,在本申请的实施例中,该第一信令可以包括第一比特位图,该第一比特位图之中每个比特位分别对应至少一个国家代码和/或一个频谱范围;该第二信令可以包括第二比特位图,该第二比特位图之中每个比特位分别对应至少一个国家代码和/或一个频谱范围;其中,该第一比特位图中比特位对应的频谱范围与该第二比特位图中比特位对应的频谱范围不同;这两个比特位图(即第一比特位图和第二比特位图)中置为有效的比特位和该置为有效的比特位数组合指示该终端设备支持的频段相关信息。
举例而言,如果在以后的发布版本需要进一步在现有频段上进行扩展,如需要扩展终端能力,如重新定义新的信令(如第二信令),其中该第二信令可以为比特位图的形式,该比特位图中的每个比特位分别对应至少一个国家代码和一个频谱范围。例如,该第二信令可表示为Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-rxx,结合上面表格3和表格4,来描述后向兼容性问题。网络侧设备接收到终端设备通过上述第一信令和第二信令发送的能力上报信息,该能力上报信息用于指示该终端设备支持的频段相关信息,则网络侧设备可以根据这两个信令中的比特位图中置为有效的比特位和该置为有效的比特位数,确定该终端设备的终端类型。
需要说明的是,如果某个终端版本的终端设备(如Rel-xx之前的UE)只能上报本申请实施例提供的能力上报信息,如Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-r17。Rel-xx及以后的终端设备需要同时上报Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-r17(即上述第一信令)和Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-rxx(如上述第二信令)。Rel-xx之前的网络侧设备只能识别Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-r17(即上述第一信令),并按Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-r17上报的能力对终端设备进行相关配置。Rel-xx及以后的网络侧设备可以同时识别Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-r17(即上述第一信令)和Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-rxx(如上述第二信令),并根据两个信令中置1的bit位的组合含义对该终端设备进行配置。
举例而言,以频段n77为例,在Rel-xx,A国家再次扩展了一段频谱3300-3400MHz:
如下表示例频段n77:
Supportedfrequencyrangeof band-rxx 频段范围for n77 Countrycode
0(leftmost bit) 3300-3440MHz A
Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-rxx legacyUE NS value
0 new A UE NS_ZZ
A国家的终端设备支持频谱能力为下表所示:
Figure PCTCN2022088630-appb-000001
以上述表格最后一行为例,Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-r17中有两个bit位置1,Supportedfrequencyrangeofband-rxx中有一个bit位置1,这两个信令中总共有3个bit位置1,网络侧设备可以获知该终端设备是支持两次扩展频谱的Rel-xx的newA specific终端,支持NS_XX。网络侧设备可以在上报的三段频谱上为该终端设备进行配置。可以理解,如果网络侧设备不支持终端设备上报的频谱范围和/或NS值,则网络侧设备可以禁止该终端设备的小区切换。
通过实施本申请实施例,可以通过新的终端能力向网络侧设备上报终端设备支持频谱范围等的相关信息,以使得网络侧设备获知该终端设备的终端类型,从而在该终端设备支持的频谱范围上进行相关配置,以避免终端设备小区切换过程中出现问题。另外,对于在以后的发布版本需要进一步在现有频段上进行扩展,可以扩展终端能力信息元素(如第二信令),结合第一信令与第二信令组合指示终端设备支持的频段相关信息,从而实现后向兼容性问题。
上述本申请提供的实施例中,分别从终端设备、网络侧设备的角度对本申请实施例提供的方法进行了介绍。为了实现上述本申请实施例提供的方法中的各功能,终端设备和网络侧设备可以包括硬件结构、软件模块,以硬件结构、软件模块、或硬件结构加软件模块的形式来实现上述各功能。上述各功能中的某个功能可以以硬件结构、软件模块、或者硬件结构加软件模块的方式来执行。
