Figure 1 is a schematic flow chart of a method for receiving configuration information according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The configuration information receiving method shown in this embodiment can be applied to terminals, which include but are not limited to drones (such as drones, specifically cellular network drones), mobile phones, tablet computers, wearable devices, Communication devices such as sensors and IoT devices. The terminal can communicate with network equipment, which includes but is not limited to network equipment in 4G, 5G, 6G and other communication systems, such as base stations, core networks, etc.

As shown in Figure 1, the configuration information receiving method may include the following steps:

In step S101, configuration information sent by the network device is received. The configuration information is used to instruct the terminal to broadcast the identity information of the terminal through the direct link sidelink (corresponding to the PC5 interface).

In one embodiment, the network device can configure the terminal to broadcast the identity information through the direct link. For example, it can send configuration information to the terminal. The configuration information is the configuration information for the terminal to broadcast the identity information through the direct link, such as resources. , power, etc., can be used to instruct the terminal to broadcast the identity information of the terminal through sidelink. Specific configuration information will be described in subsequent embodiments.

According to embodiments of the present disclosure, a terminal can receive configuration information sent by a network device, and can further broadcast the identity information of the terminal through a direct link according to the configuration information. Since the direct link is a communication method generally supported by terminals such as drones, and generally has a different frequency than mobile networks (for example, networks corresponding to wireless access technologies such as 4G and 5G), the network equipment sends Broadcasting the configuration information of the identity information through the direct link is conducive to ensuring that the terminal can smoothly broadcast the terminal's own identity information in the direct link communication method according to the configuration information, and is conducive to avoiding interference to the mobile network.

FIG. 2 is a schematic flow chart of another configuration information receiving method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 2, the method also includes:

In step S201, capability information is sent to the network device, where the capability information is used to indicate whether the terminal supports the sidelink communication mode.

In one embodiment, the terminal can send the terminal's own capability information to the network device, and indicate to the network device whether the terminal supports the sidelink communication mode through the capability information, so that the network device can accurately determine the terminal's capability for sidelink communication based on the capability information. Mode support.

In one embodiment, the capability information is carried in at least one of the following:

UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System, Universal Mobile Communications System) terrestrial radio access network capability information UE-EUTRA-Capability for user equipment evolution;

User equipment multi-radio technology dual connection capability information UE-MRDC-Capability;

User equipment new air interface capability information UE-NR-Capability.

In one embodiment, the method further includes: receiving capability inquiry information sent by the network device; wherein, upon receiving the capability inquiry information, sending the capability information to the network device.

In order to obtain the capability information, the network device may first send capability inquiry information to the terminal. After receiving the capability inquiry information, the terminal then sends the capability information to the network device. Accordingly, it can be ensured that when it is determined that the network device needs the capability information, the capability information will be sent to the network device, which is beneficial to avoiding terminal power consumption.

Wherein, the capability information may include RRC (Radio Resource Control, Radio Resource Control) signaling, such as user equipment capability inquiry UECapabilityEnquiry signaling.

Figure 3 is a schematic flow chart of yet another configuration information receiving method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 3, the configuration information sent by the receiving network device includes:

In step S301, if the terminal supports the sidelink communication mode, the configuration information is received.

In one embodiment, the terminal may send capability information to the network device, where the capability information is used to indicate whether the terminal supports the sidelink communication mode. When the network device determines that the terminal supports the sidelink communication mode based on the capability information, the network device may send the configuration information to the terminal. If it determines that the terminal does not support the sidelink communication mode based on the capability information, the network device may send the configuration information to the terminal. The terminal cannot broadcast the identity information in the sidelink communication mode according to the configuration information. Therefore, the network device does not need to send the configuration information to the terminal to avoid wasting communication resources.

Correspondingly, the terminal may only receive the configuration information if the sidelink communication mode is supported, and the configuration information may not be received if the sidelink communication mode is not supported, so as to avoid wasting the terminal's power.

In one embodiment, when the terminal is a drone, if the drone is a cellular network drone, that is, the drone supports access to cellular network communications, then the drone can be forced to support sidelink. The communication mode, for example, is set by the manufacturer of the drone when the drone is manufactured. According to this, it can be guaranteed that a drone that can access the cellular network and communicate with network equipment can broadcast its own identity information through the sidelink communication mode. In this case, the network equipment can access the cellular network by default (for example, with the network equipment When the terminal that establishes a communication connection is a drone, the drone is a cellular network drone and can support the sidelink communication mode. Therefore, the network device can choose not to determine whether the terminal supports the sidelink communication mode based on the capability information, but Send the configuration information directly to the terminal.

In one embodiment, the method further includes: when the terminal does not support the sidelink communication mode, when the configuration information is not received or when indication information indicating that takeoff is not allowed, determining No takeoff allowed.

Because when the terminal does not support the sidelink communication mode, the terminal cannot broadcast its own identity information in the sidelink communication mode according to the configuration information. If the terminal is flying in the air, other devices (such as network equipment, other terminals) cannot pass When the sidelink receives the identity information broadcast by the terminal, it will cause some problems. For example, it is difficult for the network device to control the terminal.

Therefore, in one embodiment, the terminal may send capability information to the network device, where the capability information is used to indicate whether the terminal supports the sidelink communication mode. When the network device determines that the terminal does not support the sidelink communication mode based on the received capability information, it may not allow the terminal to take off to avoid the above problems.

For example, the network device can implicitly indicate that the terminal is not allowed to take off. For example, after receiving the capability information, it does not send the configuration information to the terminal. If the terminal does not receive the configuration information after sending the capability information, then The network device can be configured by default to indicate that the terminal is not allowed to take off.

For example, the network device may display a display method to indicate that the terminal is not allowed to take off. For example, after receiving the capability information, the network device sends RRC configuration signaling to the terminal, and configures the terminal not to take off through the RRC configuration signaling.

In one embodiment, the configuration information includes at least one of the following:

The resources used to broadcast the identity information through sidelink;

The power used to broadcast the identity information through sidelink;

a first correlation between the power and the speed of the terminal;

a second correlation between the power and the height of the terminal;

The frequency with which said identity information is broadcast via sidelink;

a third correlation between the frequency and the speed of the terminal;

A fourth correlation between the frequency and the height of the terminal.

The configuration information sent by the network device to the terminal may include one or more types of information. For example, it may generally include the resources (such as time domain resources and/or frequency domain resources). The terminal may broadcast the resources through sidelink. Identity Information. Of course, the configuration information may also include other information.

For example, the configuration information may include the power, and the terminal may broadcast the identity information through sidelink according to the power. For example, the power to broadcast the identity information is the power in the configuration information.

For example, the configuration information may include the frequency of broadcasting the identity information through sidelink, and the terminal may broadcast the identity information through sidelink according to the frequency. For example, the frequency of broadcasting the identity information is the frequency in the configuration information.

For example, the configuration information may include a first association relationship between the power and the speed of the terminal, and the terminal may broadcast the identity information through sidelink according to the first association relationship. For example, the first association relationship is that when the speed is greater than the first preset speed threshold, the identity information is broadcast based on the first power, and when the speed is less than or equal to the first preset speed threshold, the identity information is broadcast based on the second power. Then the terminal can determine its own speed. If the speed is greater than the first preset speed threshold, the identity information can be broadcast based on the first power. If the speed is less than or equal to the first preset speed threshold, the identity information can be broadcast based on the second power. Wherein, the first power may be greater than the second power.

For example, the configuration information may include a second association between the power and the height of the terminal, and the terminal may broadcast the identity information through sidelink according to the second association. For example, the second association relationship is that when the height is greater than the first preset height threshold, the identity information is broadcast based on the first power, and when the height is less than or equal to the first preset height threshold, the identity information is broadcast based on the second power. Then the terminal can determine its own height. If the height is greater than the first preset height threshold, the identity information can be broadcast based on the first power. If the height is less than or equal to the first preset height threshold, the identity information can be broadcast based on the second power. Wherein, the first power may be greater than the second power.

For example, the configuration information may include a third association between the frequency and the speed of the terminal, and the terminal may broadcast the identity information through sidelink according to the third association. For example, the third association relationship is that when the speed is greater than the second preset speed threshold, the identity information is broadcast according to the first frequency, and when the speed is less than or equal to the second preset speed threshold, the identity information is broadcast according to the second frequency. Then the terminal can determine its own speed. If the speed is greater than the second preset speed threshold, the identity information can be broadcast based on the first frequency. If the speed is less than or equal to the second preset speed threshold, the identity information can be broadcast based on the second frequency. Wherein, the first frequency may be greater than the second frequency.

For example, the configuration information may include a fourth association relationship between the frequency and the height of the terminal, and the terminal may broadcast the identity information through sidelink according to the fourth association relationship. For example, the fourth association relationship is that when the height is greater than the second preset height threshold, the identity information is broadcast according to the first frequency, and when the height is less than or equal to the second preset height threshold, the identity information is broadcast according to the second frequency. Then the terminal can determine its own height. If the height is greater than the second preset height threshold, the identity information can be broadcast based on the first frequency. If the height is less than or equal to the second preset height threshold, the identity information can be broadcast based on the second frequency. Wherein, the first frequency may be greater than the second frequency.

It should be noted that the speed may be the movement speed of the terminal. When the terminal is a flying device such as a drone, the speed may specifically be the flight speed of the terminal; the altitude may be the altitude of the terminal, or It may be the height from the terminal to the ground where it is located. When the terminal is a device capable of flying such as a drone, the height may specifically be the flight height of the terminal.

In addition, the above-mentioned speed threshold, altitude threshold and other thresholds may be determined according to protocol agreement, or may be configured by the network device. For example, the network device may be configured through RRC signaling. Among them, for the network equipment in the NR (New Radio, New Air Interface) system, for example, the threshold can be configured through RRC Reconfiguration (RRCReconfiguration) signaling, specifically through OtherConfig signaling; for LTE (Long Term Evolution, long-term The network device in the Evolution system may, for example, configure the threshold through RRC Connection Reconfiguration (RRCConnectionReconfiguration) signaling, and specifically, through OtherConfig signaling.

In one embodiment, when the network device determines that the terminal supports the direct link sidelink communication mode, the network device can configure the terminal to broadcast the identity information through the direct link. For example, the network device can send configuration information to the terminal, and the configuration information is The configuration information of the terminal broadcasting the identity information through the direct link, such as resources, power, etc., can be used to instruct the terminal to broadcast the identity information of the terminal through the sidelink.
