Description

一种信息传输方法及通信装置
本申请要求于2022年05月27日提交中国专利局、申请号为202210584139.X、申请名称为“一种信息传输方法及通信装置”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种信息传输方法及通信装置。
背景技术
在移动通信系统中,在基本的切换流程中,连接态用户设备(user equipment,UE)的移动性管理是由接入网设备控制的,即接入网设备通过发送切换消息指示UE切换到哪个小区以及如何进行切换。例如,现有的小区切换流程可如图1所示。其中:
101、源基站发送无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)重配消息给连接态的UE。例如,该RRC重配消息可包含测量对象、报告配置、测量标识等参数。
102、UE根据RRC重配置消息对一系列小区进行测量后,形成测量报告上报给当前连接的源基站。
103、源基站接收测量报告之后,确定UE是否需要进行小区切换。
104、如要确定UE需要进行小区切换,则源基站将发切换请求消息给目标基站。
105、目标基站接收切换请求之后,根据自身连接数等情况确定是否允许UE的接入。
106、如果允许UE的接入,则目标基站发切换确认消息给源基站。例如,该切换确认消息包含目标小区的相关信息以及UE接入该目标小区所需的相关配置参数。
107、源基站接收目标基站发送的切换确认消息之后,发送RRC重配置消息(即切换命令)给UE。其中,该RRC重配置消息包含的内容来自步骤106的切换确认消息,相当于源基站透明。
108、UE接收RRC重配置消息之后,根据RRC重配置消息对目标基站发起随机接入。
现有的切换流程中,UE会断开与源基站的连接,在成功接入目标基站之前,UE收发数据会出现短暂的中断。
109、UE发送RRC重配置完成消息给目标基站。
110、目标基站接收RRC重配置完成消息之后,发送上下文释放消息给源基站,以让源基站释放该UE的上下文。
将上述步骤108的随机接入过程展开可如图2所示,其中:
201、UE使用SSB对应的波束1向目标基站发送消息1(msg1)。该msg1包括前导码。
具体地,UE可选择一个信号质量高于门限值的SSB,并使用波束1向目标基站发送msg1,该波束1为选择的SSB对应的波束。
202、目标基站接收msg1之后,使用波束1向UE发送消息2(msg2)。该msg2中包含该UE用于上行同步的时间提前量(timing advance,TA)信息和初始的上行资源分配信息(UL grant)。
目标基站发送msg2之前,还可发送用于调度msg2的PDCCH。该PDCCH通过随机接 入无线网络临时标识(random access radio network temporary identifier,RA-RNTI)加扰。目标基站接收msg1之后,可基于前导码的时频资源确定RA-RNTI。
相应地,UE也基于前导码的时频资源确定RA-RNTI。并通过RA-RNTI解扰PDCCH,以获取msg2的调度信息。UE基于msg2的调度信息,使用波束1接收msg2。
为了节省信令开销,目前提出了组切换技术(group handover,Group HO)。源基站可以将多个UE看作一个“组(Group)”,并以组为单位进行小区切换判决,在需要进行小区切换时,以组为单位向目标基站请求进行小区切换。源基站向目标基站发送组切换请求后,目标基站为组内所有的UE准备资源。
考虑到组内的UE之间距离接近,为节省信令开销,可以令组头UE发送msg1,非组头UE不发送msg1。非组头UE可直接接收msg2,该msg2包含组头UE的TA信息和所有UE的上行资源分配信息。非组头UE根据组头UE的TA信息进行上行同步。非组头UE如何准确接收组头UE的TA信息和非组头UE的上行资源分配信息是目前亟待解决的问题。
发明内容
本申请实施例提供一种信息传输方法及通信装置,有利于非组头UE准确地接收组头UE的TA信息和非组头UE的上行资源分配信息。
第一方面,本申请提供一种信息传输方法。可选的,该方法可以由非组头UE执行,也可以由非组头UE的部件(例如处理器、芯片、或芯片系统等)执行,还可以由能实现全部或部分非组头UE功能的逻辑模块或软件实现。该方法包括:
接收源接入网设备发送的第一信息,该第一信息用于确定第一随机接入无线网络临时标识(RA-RNTI)和第一波束,该第一RA-RNTI用于加扰第一物理下行控制信道(PDCCH),该第一PDCCH用于承载消息(msg)2的调度信息,该第一波束用于传输msg1和msg2,该msg1包括前导码,该msg2包括UE组内的组头UE的时间提前量(TA)信息和UE组内所有UE的上行资源分配信息;基于第一信息确定第一RA-RNTI和第一波束;接收目标接入网设备广播的经过第一RA-RNTI加扰的第一PDCCH;基于第一RA-RNTI对第一PDCCH进行解扰,得到msg2的调度信息;基于msg2的调度信息,通过第一波束接收目标接入网设备广播的msg2。
可见,基于第一方面所描述的方法,非组头UE可以获取到第一RA-RNTI和传输msg2的第一波束,从而可以基于第一RA-RNTI解析第一PDCCH得到msg2的调度信息,进而基于msg2的调度信息和第一波束,接收msg2。msg2中包括组头UE的TA信息和非组头UE的上行资源分配信息。因此,基于第一方面所描述的方法,有利于非组头UE准确地接收组头UE的TA信息和非组头UE的上行资源分配信息。

在一种可能的实现中,接收源接入网设备发送的第一信息之后,还可向源接入网设备发送第三信息,该第三信息指示非组头UE已接收到第一信息。通过向向源接入网设备指示非组头UE已接收到第一信息,从而源接入网设备可以在所有非组头UE都接收到第一信息时通知目标接入网设备可以发送第一PDCCH和msg2。从而避免目标接入网设备过早发送第一PDCCH和msg2,导致非组头UE无法成功接收第一PDCCH和msg2。
在一种可能的实现中,第一信息指示以下信息中的一种或多种:第一RA-RNTI、前导码对应的物理随机接入信道(PRACH)资源、前导码、第一波束的标识或第一波束对应的同步信号块(SSB)的标识。基于该可能的实现方式,有利于非组头UE准确地确定第一RA-RNTI和第一波束。
在一种可能的实现中,接收源接入网设备发送的第一信息之前,还可接收源接入网设备发送的第二命令;其中,第二命令中携带组头UE的标识;或者,第二命令携带用于指示收到第二命令的UE为非组头UE的信息;或者,第二命令与源接入网设备发送给组头UE的第一命令名称不相同,第一命令指示收到第一命令的UE为组头UE的信息,第二命令指示收到第二命令的UE为非组头UE的信息。基于该可能的实现方式,可以通过第二命令通知哪些UE为非组头UE,这样非组头UE就可以执行相应的操作。
在一种可能的实现中,第二命令还携带UE组的组移动用户临时标识(G-RNTI)。基于该可能的实现方式,非组头UE可获取到G-RNTI,从而后续可基于G-RNTI解析第二PDCCH,得到第一信息的调度信息。

在一种可能的实现中,第二命令还携带UE组的组移动用户临时标识(G-RNTI)。基于该可能的实现方式,可以通过第二命令指示UE组的G-RNTI,以便后续可基于G-RNTI接收UE组内的组头UE的TA信息和非组头UE的上行资源分配信息。
在一种可能的实现中,第一命令和第二命令指示进行小区切换。基于该可能的实现方式,第一命令和第二命令既用于小区切换也用于指示非组头UE,可以避免增加额外的信令,节省信令开销。

基于该可能的实现方式,能够准确地划分需要进行小区切换的UE组。

UE的离散程度较大,则认为它们相隔较远,不适合采用组切换技术。因此,基于该可能的实现方式,能够合理地划分需要进行小区切换的UE组。

请参见图3,图3是本申请实施例提供的一种系统架构的示意图。如图3所示,该系统架构包括UE组、源接入网设备和目标接入网设备。
下面分别对图3中系统架构所涉及的UE组、源接入网设备和目标接入网设备进行介绍。
一、源接入网设备
源接入网设备是UE组的服务小区中的接入网设备。
接入网设备与终端设备之间的接口可以为Uu接口(或称为空口)。当然,在未来通信中,这些接口的名称可以不变,或者也可以用其它名称代替,本申请对此不限定。
接入网设备即为将终端设备接入到无线网络的节点或设备。接入网设备可以是任意一种具有无线收发功能的设备,包括但不限于:LTE中的演进型基站(NodeB或eNB或e-NodeB,evolutional Node B),NR中的基站(gNodeB或gNB)或传输接收点(Transmission ReceptionPoint,TRP),3GPP后续演进的基站,WiFi系统中的接入节点,无线中继节点,无线回传节点等。基站可以是:宏基站,微基站,微微基站,小站,中继站,或,气球站等。多个基站可以支持上述提及的同一种技术的网络,也可以支持上述提及的不同技术的网络。基站可以包含一个或多个共站或非共站的TRP。接入网设备还可以是云无线接入网(Cloud Radio Access Network,CRAN)场景下的无线控制器、集中单元(Central Unit,CU),和/或分布单元(Distributed Unit,DU)。接入网设备还可以是服务器,可穿戴设备,或车载设备等。以下以接入网设备为基站为例进行说明。所述多个接入网设备可以为同一类型的基站,也可以为不同类型的基站。基站可以与终端设备进行通信,也可以通过中继站与终端设备进行通信。终端设备可以与不同技术的多个基站进行通信,例如,终端设备可以与支持LTE网络的基站通信,也可以与支持5G网络的基站通信,还可以支持与LTE网络的基站以及5G网络的基站的双连接。
二、目标接入网设备
目标接入网设备是邻区信号比服务小区信号高于第一门限,或服务小区信号低于第二门限且邻区信号高于第三门限时,UE组想要接入的小区中的接入网设备。关于接入网设备的描述可参见源接入网设备下对接入网设备的描述,在此不赘述。
三、UE组
UE组中包括多个UE。可以以UE组为单位进行小区切换,即源接入网设备可以将多个 UE看作一个“组(Group)”,并以组为单位进行小区切换判决,在需要进行小区切换时,以组为单位向目标接入网设备请求进行小区切换。源接入网设备向目标接入网设备发送组切换请求后,目标接入网设备为UE组内所有的UE准备资源。其中,UE组中有一个UE为组头UE,其他UE为非组头UE。
在源接入网设备向UE组内的所有UE发送用于小区切换的切换命令之后,组头UE需要向目标接入网设备发送msg1(消息1),以及接收目标接入网设备发送的msg2,该msg2包含组头UE的TA信息和所有UE的上行资源分配信息。非组头UE不需要发送msg1,可直接接收该msg2。也就是说,组头UE需要进行随机接入,非组头UE不需要进行随机接入。
UE包括向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备,例如UE是一种具有无线收发功能的设备,可以部署在陆地上,包括室内或室外、手持、穿戴或车载;也可以部署在水面上(如轮船等);还可以部署在空中(例如飞机、气球和卫星上等)。所述终端可以是手机(mobile phone)、平板电脑(Pad)、带无线收发功能的电脑、虚拟现实(VR)UE、增强现实(AR)UE、工业控制(industrial control)中的无线终端、车载UE、无人驾驶(self driving)中的无线终端、远程医疗(remote medical)中的无线终端、智能电网(smart grid)中的无线终端、运输安全(transportation safety)中的无线终端、智慧城市(smart city)中的无线终端、智慧家庭(smart home)中的无线终端、可穿戴UE等等。本申请的实施例对应用场景不做限定。UE有时也可以称为终端、接入UE、车载终端、工业控制终端、UE单元、UE站、移动站、移动台、远方站、远程UE、移动设备、终端设备、无线通信设备、UE代理或UE装置等。终端也可以是固定的或者移动的。本申请中后文用UE指代UE。
为了非组头UE能够准确地接收组头UE的TA信息和非组头UE的上行资源分配信息,本申请实施例提供了一种信息传输方法及通信装置。下面对本申请实施例提供的信息传输方法及通信装置进一步进行介绍:
请参见图4,图4是本申请实施例提供的一种信息传输方法的流程示意图。在图4所描述的方法中,非组头UE可以获取到第一RA-RNTI和传输msg2的第一波束,从而可以基于第一RA-RNTI解析第一PDCCH得到msg2的调度信息,进而基于msg2的调度信息和第一波束,接收msg2。msg2中包括组头UE的TA信息和非组头UE的上行资源分配信息。图4中以组头UE、非组头UE、源接入网设备和目标接入网设备作为该方法的执行主体为例,本申请并不限制该方法的执行主体。例如,图4中的组头UE、非组头UE、源接入网设备或目标接入网设备也可以是支持该组头UE、非组头UE、源接入网设备或目标接入网设备实现该方法的芯片、芯片系统、或处理器,还可以是能实现组头UE、非组头UE、源接入网设备或目标接入网设备的全部或部分功能的逻辑模块或软件。其中:
401、组头UE采用第一波束向目标接入网设备发送msg1。相应地,该目标接入网设备可使用该第一波束接收该组头UE发送的该msg1。
其中,该msg1包括前导码。msg1用于随机接入。
可选的,UE可选择一个信号质量高于门限值的SSB,第一波束可以为选择的SSB对应的波束。SSB对应的波束是指传输该SSB的波束。SSB的标识与传输该SSB的波束之间具有对应关系。
402、目标接入网设备向源接入网设备发送第一信息。相应地,该源接入网设备可接收该第一信息。
其中,该第一信息用于确定第一随机接入无线网络临时标识(random access radio network  temporary identifier,RA-RNTI)和第一波束,该第一RA-RNTI用于加扰第一物理下行控制信道(PDCCH),该第一PDCCH用于承载msg2的调度信息,该msg2包括组头UE的时间提前量(TA)信息和UE组内所有UE的上行资源分配信息。msg2的调度信息可以为msg2的时频资源信息。
由于msg2的调度信息承载于第一PDCCH,且目标接入网设备采用第一波束发送msg2。因此,非组头UE接收msg2需要知道第一RA-RNTI和第一波束,才能基于第一RA-RNTI来解析第一PDCCH,得到msg2的调度信息,并基于msg2的调度信息,使用第一波束接收msg2。
因此,为了使非组头UE能够成功接收到msg2,目标接入网设备接收msg1之后,不立即发送第一PDCCH和msg2。而是先向源接入网设备发送第一信息,以便源接入网设备可以将第一信息发送至非组头UE。这样非组头UE就能基于第一信息确定第一RA-RNTI和第一波束。目标接入网设备向源接入网设备发送第一信息之后,再发送第一PDCCH和msg2。这样非组头UE就可在确定第一RA-RNTI和第一波束之后,基于第一RA-RNTI解析第一PDCCH得到msg2的调度信息,再基于msg2的调度信息和第一波束接收msg2。
403、源接入网设备向非组头UE发送第一信息。相应地,非组头UE可以接收该第一信息。
在一种可能的实现中,源接入网设备可通过以下两种方式中的一种向非组头UE发送第一信息。
方式一:源接入网设备通过无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)消息向UE组中的非组头UE发送第一信息。相应地,UE组内的非组头UE接收源接入网设备通过RRC消息发送的第一信息。
方式二:源接入网设备广播第二PDCCH,该第二PDCCH由UE组的组移动用户临时标识(group radio network temporary identifier,G-RNTI)加扰,该第二PDCCH用于承载第一信息的调度信息;源接入网设备广播第一信息。相应地,UE组内的非组头UE可接收源接入网设备广播的第二PDCCH,该第二PDCCH由UE组的G-RNTI加扰,该第二PDCCH用于承载第一信息的调度信息;非组头UE可基于第一信息的调度信息接收源接入网设备广播的第一信息。
每个小区组对应一个G-RNTI,G-RNTI用于区分小区组。因此,可以通过G-RNTI来加扰第二PDCCH,这样只有G-RNTI对应的小区组中的UE才能成功对第二PDCCH进行解扰,得到第一信息的调度信息。进而G-RNTI对应的小区组中的非组头UE可基于第一信息的调度信息,接收源接入网设备广播的第一信息。
404、非组头UE基于第一信息确定第一RA-RNTI和第一波束。
本申请实施例中,非组头UE接收第一信息之后,基于第一信息确定第一RA-RNTI和第一波束。
在一种可能的实现中,第一信息指示以下信息中的一种或多种:第一RA-RNTI、前导码对应的物理随机接入信道(physical random access channel,PRACH)资源、前导码、第一波束的标识或第一波束对应的同步信号块(synchronization signal and PBCH block,SSB)的标识。基于该可能的实现方式,有利于非组头UE准确地确定第一RA-RNTI和第一波束。
非组头UE可基于第一RA-RNTI、PRACH资源、前导码、第一波束的标识和第一波束对应的SSB的标识中的任意一个参数确定第一RA-RNTI。
例如,假设第一信息指示前导码对应的PRACH资源。非组头UE可基于PRACH资源计 算得到第一RA-RNTI。
假设第一信息指示前导码。由于PRACH资源、前导码、第一波束、SSB的标识之间具有对应关系,那么非组头UE可基于前导码确定PRACH资源,再基于PRACH资源计算得到第一RA-RNTI。
假设第一信息指示第一波束的标识。由于PRACH资源、前导码、第一波束、SSB的标识之间具有对应关系,那么非组头UE可基于第一波束的标识确定PRACH资源,再基于PRACH资源计算得到第一RA-RNTI。
假设第一信息指示SSB的标识。由于PRACH资源、前导码、第一波束、SSB的标识之间具有对应关系,那么非组头UE可基于SSB的标识确定PRACH资源,再基于PRACH资源计算得到第一RA-RNTI。
由于PRACH资源、前导码、第一波束、SSB的标识之间具有对应关系,因此非组头UE可基于PRACH资源、前导码、第一波束的标识或第一波束对应的SSB的标识中的任意一个参数确定第一波束。
405、目标接入网设备广播经过第一RA-RNTI加扰的第一PDCCH。相应地,组头UE和非组头UE可接收目标接入网设备广播的经过该第一RA-RNTI加扰的第一PDCCH。
本申请实施例中,目标接入网设备可基于PRACH资源来计算第一RA-RNTI。目标接入网设备向源接入网设备发送第一信息之后,广播经过第一RA-RNTI加扰的第一PDCCH。
406、非组头UE基于第一RA-RNTI对第一PDCCH进行解扰,得到msg2的调度信息。
本申请实施例中,非组头UE接收该第一PDCCH之后,基于第一RA-RNTI对第一PDCCH进行解扰,以得到msg2的调度信息,以便后续可基于msg2的调度信息接收msg2。
同理,组头UE接收该第一PDCCH之后,也可基于第一RA-RNTI对第一PDCCH进行解扰,以得到msg2的调度信息,以便后续可基于msg2的调度信息接收msg2。组头UE可预先基于PRACH资源确定第一RA-RNTI。
407、目标接入网设备通过第一波束广播msg2。相应地,组头UE和非组头UE可基于第一PDCCH中的msg2的调度信息,通过第一波束接收目标接入网设备广播的msg2。
可见,基于图4所描述的方法,非组头UE可以获取到第一RA-RNTI和传输msg2的第一波束,从而可以基于第一RA-RNTI解析第一PDCCH得到msg2的调度信息,进而基于msg2的调度信息和第一波束,接收msg2。msg2中包括组头UE的TA信息和非组头UE的上行资源分配信息。因此,基于图4所描述的方法,有利于非组头UE准确地接收组头UE的TA信息和非组头UE的上行资源分配信息。
请参见图5,图5是本申请实施例提供的另一种信息传输方法的流程示意图。图5所描述的实施例是对图4所描述的实施例的改进。图5所描述的实施例中,目标接入网设备向源接入网设备发送第一信息之后,源接入网设备通知目标接入网设备可以发送第一PDCCH和msg2时,目标接入网设备才会发送第一PDCCH和msg2,从而避免目标接入网设备过早发送第一PDCCH和msg2,导致非组头UE无法成功接收第一PDCCH和msg2。图5中以组头UE、非组头UE、源接入网设备和目标接入网设备作为该方法的执行主体为例,本申请并不限制该方法的执行主体。例如,图5中的组头UE、非组头UE、源接入网设备或目标接入网设备也可以是支持该组头UE、非组头UE、源接入网设备或目标接入网设备实现该方法的芯片、芯片系统、或处理器,还可以是能实现组头UE、非组头UE、源接入网设备或目标接入网设备的全部或部分功能的逻辑模块或软件。其中:
501、组头UE采用第一波束向目标接入网设备发送msg1。相应地,该目标接入网设备可使用该第一波束接收该组头UE发送的该msg1。
其中,该msg1包括前导码。msg1用于随机接入。
502、目标接入网设备向源接入网设备发送第一信息。相应地,该源接入网设备可接收该第一信息。
其中,该第一信息用于确定第一随机接入无线网络临时标识(RA-RNTI)和第一波束,该第一RA-RNTI用于加扰第一物理下行控制信道(PDCCH),该第一PDCCH用于承载msg2的调度信息,该msg2包括组头UE的时间提前量(TA)信息和UE组内所有UE的上行资源分配信息。
503、源接入网设备向非组头UE发送第一信息。相应地,非组头UE可以接收该第一信息。
步骤501~步骤503的说明可参见图4所描述的实施例中的说明,在此不赘述。
504、源接入网设备启动定时器。
本申请实施例中,源接入网设备向非组头UE发送第一信息之后,启动定时器。
505、非组头UE基于第一信息确定第一RA-RNTI和第一波束。
步骤505的说明可参见图4所描述的实施例中的说明,在此不赘述。
506、非组头UE向源接入网设备发送第三信息,该第三信息指示非组头UE已接收到第一信息。相应地,源接入网设备可以接收该第三信息。
本申请实施例中,非组头UE接收第一信息之后,向源接入网设备发送第三信息。可先执行步骤505,再执行步骤506,或者可先执行步骤506,再执行步骤505。
507、当定时器超时时或接收到所有非组头UE发送的第三信息时,源接入网设备向目标接入网设备发送第二信息,该第二信息指示发送第一PDCCH和msg2。相应地,目标接入网设备可以接收该第二信息。
在一种可能的实现中,也可以执行步骤504,不执行步骤506。当定时器超时时源接入网设备向目标接入网设备发送第二信息,该第二信息指示发送第一PDCCH和msg2。
在一种可能的实现中,也可以执行步骤506,不执行步骤504。当源接入网设备接收到所有非组头UE发送的第三信息时,源接入网设备向目标接入网设备发送第二信息。图5以步骤504和步骤506均执行为例。
本申请实施例中,目标接入网设备接收第二信息之后,执行步骤508。
508、目标接入网设备广播经过第一RA-RNTI加扰的第一PDCCH。相应地,组头UE和非组头UE可接收目标接入网设备广播的经过该第一RA-RNTI加扰的第一PDCCH。
509、非组头UE基于第一RA-RNTI对第一PDCCH进行解扰,得到msg2的调度信息。
510、目标接入网设备通过第一波束广播msg2。相应地,组头UE和非组头UE可基于第一PDCCH中的msg2的调度信息,通过第一波束接收目标接入网设备广播的msg2。
步骤508~步骤510的说明可参见图4所描述的实施例中的说明,在此不赘述。
可见,基于图5所描述的方法,有利于避免目标接入网设备过早发送第一PDCCH和msg2,导致非组头UE无法成功接收第一PDCCH和msg2。
请参见图6,图6是本申请实施例提供的一种信息传输方法的流程示意图。图6所描述的实施例是对图5所描述的实施例的改进。图6所描述的实施例中,源接入网设备可通知哪个UE是组头UE,哪些UE为非组头UE,以便组头UE和非组头UE执行相应的操作。图6 中以组头UE、非组头UE、源接入网设备和目标接入网设备作为该方法的执行主体为例,本申请并不限制该方法的执行主体。例如,图6中的组头UE、非组头UE、源接入网设备或目标接入网设备也可以是支持该组头UE、非组头UE、源接入网设备或目标接入网设备实现该方法的芯片、芯片系统、或处理器,还可以是能实现组头UE、非组头UE、源接入网设备或目标接入网设备的全部或部分功能的逻辑模块或软件。其中:
601、源接入网设备向目标接入网设备发送组切换请求。相应地,目标接入网设备可以接收该组切换请求。
其中,该组切换请求用于请求对UE组进行小区切换,该组切换请求中携带组头UE的标识。也就说是,组切换请求可以向目标接入网设备指示哪个UE为组头UE。
可选的,组头UE的标识可以为组头UE的小区无线网络临时标识(cell radio network temporary identifier,C-RNTI)。或者,组头UE的标识还可以是其他可以表示组头UE的信息。
通过向目标接入网设备指示组头UE,后续目标接入网设备接收到msg1后,才能识别该msg1是否为组头UE发送的。如果该msg1为组头UE发送的,目标接入网设备才向源接入网设备发送第一信息。
602、目标接入网设备向源接入网设备发送切换确认信息。相应地,源接入网设备可以接收该切换确认信息。
603、源接入网设备向组头UE发送第一命令。相应地,组头UE可以接收该第一命令。
604、源接入网设备向非组头UE发送第二命令。相应地,非组头UE可以接收该第二命令。
在一种可能的实现中,第一命令和第二命令中均携带组头UE的标识。可选的,第一命令和第二命令可以相同。
在另一种可能的实现中,第一命令携带用于指示收到第一命令的UE为组头UE的信息,第二命令携带用于指示收到第二命令的UE为非组头UE的信息。可选的,第一命令和第二命令的名称可以相同,且都携带第一信元。第一命令中的第一信元用于指示收到第一命令的UE为非组头UE。第二命令中的第一信元用于指示收到第二命令的UE为非组头UE。第一命令中的第一信元和第二命令中的第一信元的取值不同。例如,第一命令中的第一信元的取值为1,第二命令中的第一信元的取值为0。或者,第一命令中的第一信元的取值为0,第二命令中的第一信元的取值为1。
在又一种可能的实现中,第一命令和第二命令的信令名称不相同,第一命令指示收到第一命令的UE为组头UE的信息,第二命令指示收到第二命令的UE为非组头UE的信息。也就是说,通过向不同类型的UE发送不同名称的命令,来指示接收命令的UE是否为组头UE。
在一种可能的实现中,第一命令和第二命令指示进行小区切换。也就是说,第一命令和第二命令可以为切换命令。基于该可能的实现方式,第一命令和第二命令既用于小区切换也用于指示非组头UE,可以避免增加额外的信令,节省信令开销。
在另一种可能的实现中,第一命令和第二命令也可以不是切换命令。

在另一种可能的实现中,第一命令携带用于指示收到第一命令的UE为组头UE的信息,第二命令携带用于指示收到第二命令的UE为非组头UE的信息。可选的,第一命令和第二命令的名称可以相同,且都携带第一信元。第一命令中的第一信元用于指示收到第一命令的UE为非组头UE。第二命令中的第一信元用于指示收到第二命令的UE为非组头UE。第一命令中的第一信元和第二命令中的第一信元的取值不同。例如,第一命令中的第一信元的取值为1,第二命令中的第一信元的取值为0。或者,第一命令中的第一信元的取值为0,第二命令中的第一信元的取值为1。
在又一种可能的实现中,第一命令和第二命令的信令名称不相同,第一命令指示收到第一命令的UE为组头UE的信息,第二命令指示收到第二命令的UE为非组头UE的信息。也就是说,通过向不同类型的UE发送不同名称的命令,来指示接收命令的UE是否为组头UE。
在一种可能的实现中,第一命令和第二命令指示进行小区切换。也就是说,第一命令和第二命令可以为切换命令。基于该可能的实现方式,第一命令和第二命令既用于小区切换也用于指示非组头UE,可以避免增加额外的信令,节省信令开销。
在另一种可能的实现中,第一命令和第二命令也可以不是切换命令。

903、目标接入网设备向源接入网设备发送第一信息,该第一信息包括组头UE的TA信息和UE组中所有非组头UE的上行资源分配信息。相应地,源接入网设备可接收该第一信息。
904、源接入网设备向非组头UE发送组头UE的TA信息和非组头UE的上行资源分配信息。相应地,非组头UE可接收源接入网设备发送的组头UE的TA信息和非组头UE的上行资源分配信息。
本申请实施例中,源接入网设备接收该第一信息之后,向非组头UE发送组头UE的TA信息和非组头UE的上行资源分配信息。

请参见图12,图12是本申请实施例提供的一种UE组确定方法的流程示意图。图12中以源接入网设备作为该方法的执行主体为例,本申请并不限制该方法的执行主体。例如,图12中的源接入网设备也可以是支持源接入网设备实现该方法的芯片、芯片系统、或处理器,还可以是能实现源接入网设备的全部或部分功能的逻辑模块或软件。其中:

在一种可能的实现中,源接入网设备基于多个第二UE的位置确定是否将多个第二UE划分为一个UE组的具体实施方式为:
若多个第二UE的位置之间的离散程度小于或等于第四门限,则将多个第二UE划分为一个UE组;若多个第二UE的位置之间的离散程度大于第四门限,则不将多个第二UE划分为一个UE组。
UE之间位置离散程度较大,则认为它们相隔较远,不适合采用组切换技术。因此,基于该可能的实现方式,能够合理地划分需要进行小区切换的UE组。
在一种可能的实现中,在UE组中,组头UE的位置距离UE组的中心位置最近。
在图12所描述的方法中,每个UE均向源接入网设备上报测量报告,源接入网设备基于多个UE上报的测量报告划分需要进行小区切换的UE组,并选择组头UE。图12可应用于交通工具(如公交车或地铁)上的乘客的UE与交通工具外的接入网设备进行通信的场景。
