技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种资源配置方法及设备。
背景技术
随着通信技术的发展和演进,自第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partnership Project,3GPP)版本(release)12开始,第四代(4th generation,4G)通信系统(即长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统)可以支持设备和设备之间的通信。这种通信方式可以称为设备到设备(Device to Device,D2D)通信,又称为侧行连接(sidelink,SL)通信。
例如,3GPP在Release 14和15期间,在LTE系统中引入了对车到车(vehicle to vehicle,V2V)和车到万物(vehicle to everything,V2X)服务的支持,以便将3GPP平台扩展到汽车行业。在Release16期间,研究了新无线(new radio,NR)V2X的相关设计。
在sidelink系统中,终端设备可以在一次传输中,为后续的传输预约多个不连续的资源,并在上述资源上进行传输。例如,终端设备在存在数据传输需求的情况下,针对待传输数据的重传,预约多个不连续的资源。其中,各个资源之间需要一定时间间隔,任意两个资源之间的时间间隔最小值称为最小时间间隔(minimum gap)。终端设备在该时间间隔内,可以接收在先传输对应的应答响应和针对该应答响应的处理时延。因此,该最小时间间隔应大于或等于传输对应的应答响应的时延和终端设备对该应答响应的处理时延。
例如,在终端设备使用第一资源传输数据之后,若在第一资源与相邻的第二资源的时间间隔内,终端设备接收到成功应答,那么终端设备可以终止使用该第一资源之后的第二资源重传该数据,或者使用该第二资源传输其他数据,以避免资源浪费。
然而,上述资源配置方案未考虑到信道情况,因此通过上述资源配置方案进行数据传输,可能会影响终端设备的通信效率。
发明内容
本申请提供一种资源配置方法及设备,用于保证终端设备的通信效率。
第一方面,本申请实施例提供了一种资源配置方法,该方法可以应用于SL-U系统中的第一终端设备。该方法包括以下步骤:
获取N个传输需求对应的先听后说LBT时长;其中,N为大于或等于1的整数;根据所述N个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定N个资源;其中,所述N个资源与所述N个传输需求一一对应,且当N为大于1的整数时任意两个资源之间的时间间隔大于或等于最小时间间隔。
通过该方法,所述第一终端设备可以根据所述N个传输需求对应的LBT时长,预约资源。由于考虑到LBT时长,可以减少出现到达某个传输需求对应的资源时该传输需求的LBT时长还未结束的情况,从而可以提高第一终端设备能够使用该传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率,从而保证终端设备的通信效率。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第一终端设备可以通过以下步骤,根据所述N个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定N个资源:
根据第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定第n个起始时间;其中,n为正整数,且1≤n≤N;所述第n个起始时间为所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间;根据所述第n个起始时间,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源。
通过该设计,所述第一终端设备可以根据每个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定每个传输需求的资 源选择范围的起始时间,进而可以根据每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,确定每个传输需求对应的资源。当然,任一传输需求对应的资源不早于该传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间。由于每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间是根据该传输需求对应的LBT时长确定的,因此该设计可以减少出现到达某个传输需求对应的资源时该传输需求的LBT时长还未结束的情况。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第一终端设备包括物理PHY层和介质访问控制MAC层。
在一种可能的设计中,所述PHY层可以根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定所述第n个起始时间。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第一终端设备可以通过以下步骤,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源:
方式一:所述PHY层向所述MAC层发送所述第n个起始时间;所述MAC层根据所述第n个起始时间,确定所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围;所述MAC层在所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围内,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源;
方式二:所述PHY层根据所述第n个起始时间,确定所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围;所述PHY层向所述MAC层发送所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围;所述MAC层在所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围内,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源;
方式三:所述PHY层根据所述第n个起始时间,确定所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间单元;所述PHY层向所述MAC层发送所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间单元以及候选资源集合;所述MAC层根据所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围起始时间单元,在所述资源候选集合中,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源;
方式四:所述PHY层根据所述第n个起始时间,确定所述第n个传输需求的候选资源集合;所述PHY层向所述MAC层发送所述第n个传输需求的候选资源集合;所述MAC层在所述第n个传输需求的候选资源集合中,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源;
其中,任一候选资源集合中包含至少一个候选资源。
通过该设计,所述第一终端设备可以通过多种方式确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第一终端设备在并行确定所述N个传输需求中每个传输需求对应的资源时,需要确保确定的任意两个资源之间的时间间隔大于或等于所述最小时间间隔。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第一终端设备/MAC层可以按照时域位置从后到前的顺序,先确定第N个传输需求对应的资源;然后在满足最小时间间隔的要求下确定第N-1个传输需求对应的资源;直至确定第1个传输需求对应的资源后结束。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第一终端设备/MAC层可以按照资源选择范围从小到大的顺序,先确定资源选择范围最小的传输需求对应的资源;然后在满足最小时间间隔的要求下确定资源选择范围次小的传输需求对应的资源;直至确定资源选择范围最大的传输需求对应的资源后结束。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第一终端设备/MAC层可以按照待选资源集合的时域范围从小到大的顺序,先在时域范围最小的待选资源集合中选择出一个资源;然后在满足最小时间间隔的要求下,在时域范围次小的待选资源集合中选择出下一个资源;直至在时域范围最大的待选资源集合中选择出一个资源后结束。
通过上述几种设计,可以保证所述第一终端设备确定的N个资源中,任意两个资源之间的时间间隔大于或等于所述最小时间间隔。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第n个起始时间符合t0+Tn;其中,Tn符合以下公式:
或者
其中,t0为所述第一终端设备出现传输需求的时间;tn,LBT为所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长;ts为用于调度数据传输资源的时间单元的长度;Toffset为偏移值;tcpe为循环前缀扩展的时长。
通过该设计,在所述第n个起始时间之前为所述第一终端设备进行LBT预留了足够的时间,因此,该设计可以降低出现以下情况的概率:到达所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时所述第n个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束,从而可以提高所述第一终端设备能够使用第n个传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第一终端设备可以通过以下步骤,根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定所述第n个起始时间:
根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,以及所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源,确定所述第n个起始时间;其中,所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求为在所述N个传输需求中资源位置位于所述n个传输需求之前的传输需求。
由于第一终端设备在对所述第n个传输需求进行LBT的过程中,在所述第n个传输需求对应的资源到达前,第一终端设备会在第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源上传输数据,因此,在这些在先传输需求对应的资源的位置上信道会被占用,这就导致第一终端设备对所述第n个传输需求的实际LBT时长可能会延长。基于此,第一终端设备在确定所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间时,不仅考虑第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,还需要考虑所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源。通过该设计,在所述第n个起始时间之前为所述第一终端设备进行LBT预留了足够的时间,因此,该设计可以降低出现以下情况的概率:到达所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时所述第n个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束,从而可以提高所述第一终端设备能够使用第n个传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第n个起始时间符合t0+Tn;其中,Tn符合以下公式:
或者
或者
或者
其中,t0为所述第一终端设备出现传输需求的时间;tn,LBT为所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长;ts为用于调度数据传输资源的时间单元的长度;Toffset为偏移值;tcpe为循环前缀扩展的时长;ti,R为所述第n个传输需求的第i个在先传输需求对应的资源的时长,为所述第n个传输需求的n-1个在先传输需求对应的资源的时长之和;Si,R为所述第n个传输需求的第i个在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时间单元的个数,为所述第n个传输需求的n-1个在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时间单元的个数之和。
通过该设计,在所述第n个起始时间之前为所述第一终端设备进行LBT预留了足够的时间,因此,该设计可以降低出现以下情况的概率:到达所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时所述第n个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束,从而可以提高所述第一终端设备能够使用第n个传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第一终端设备可以通过以下步骤,根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定所述第n个起始时间:
根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源,以及所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应对应的资源,确定所述第n个起始时间;其中,所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求为在所述N个传输需求中资源位置位于所述n个传输需求之前的传输需求;所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应包括在所述第n个传输需求对应的资源之前所述第一终端设备或其它终端设备应接收的应答响应。
由于第一终端设备在对所述第n个传输需求进行LBT的过程中,在所述第n个传输需求对应的资源到达前,第一终端设备会在第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源上传输数据,第一终端设备或其他终端设备会在该在先应答响应对应的资源上接收应答响应,因此,在这些在先传输需求对应的资源以及在先应答响应对应的资源的位置上信道会被占用,这就导致第一终端设备对所述第n个传输需求的实际LBT时长可能会延长。基于此,第一终端设备在确定所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间时,不仅考虑第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,还需要考虑所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源,以及在先应答响应对应的资源。通过该设计,在所述第n个起始时间之前为所述第一终端设备进行LBT预留了足够的时间,因此,该设计可以降低出现以下情况的概率:到达所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时所述第n个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束,从而可以提高所述第一终端设备能够使用第n个传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应包括所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求的应答响应;或者所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应包括所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求的应答响应,以及至少一个第一传输的应答响应;其中,所述第一传输为所述第一终端设备监听到的未接收到应答响应的传输。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第n个起始时间符合t0+Tn;其中,Tn符合以下公式:
或者
或者
或者
其中,t0为所述第一终端设备出现传输需求的时间;tn,LBT为所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长;ts为用于调度数据传输资源的时间单元的长度;Toffset为偏移值;tcpe为循环前缀扩展的时长;ti,R为所述第n个传输需求的第i个在先传输需求对应的资源的时长,为所述第n个传输需求的n-1个在先传输需求对应的资源的时长之和;tn,HARQ为所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应对应的资源的总时长;Si,R为所述第n个传输需求的第i个在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时间单元的个数,为所述第n个传输需求的n-1个在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时间单元的个数之和;Sn,HARQ为所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应对应的资源所占用的时间单元的总个数。
通过该设计,在所述第n个起始时间之前为所述第一终端设备进行LBT预留了足够的时间,因此,该设计可以降低出现以下情况的概率:到达所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时所述第n个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束,从而可以提高所述第一终端设备能够使用第n个传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第一终端设备还可以执行以下步骤:
在所述N个资源上传输数据的过程中,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束;根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,重新确定第n个起始时间;根据重新确定的所述第n个起始时间,重新确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源。
由于在所述第一终端设备在所述N个资源上传输数据的过程中,可能会发生到达某个传输需求对应的资源时,针对该传输需求进行的LBT还未结束(即该传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束),此时,所述第一终端设备还可以为该传输需求重选资源,以保证数据传输可靠性。
在一种可能的设计中,确定第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束,包括以下至少一项:在第一时间确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束;或者确定第一时长小于所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长;其中,所述第一时间位于所述第n个传输需求对应的资源的起始时间之前,或所述第一时间为所述第n个传输需求对应的资源的起始时间;所述第一时长为所述第一时间与所述第n个传输需求对应的资源的起始时间之间的时长。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第一终端设备在所述N个资源上传输数据之前,还可以根据第k个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定第k个起始时间;其中,所述第k个传输需求为所述第n个传输需求的在后传输需求,k为正整数,且n<k≤N;所述第k个起始时间为所述第k个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间;根据所述第k个起始时间,确定所述第k个传输需求对应的资源;所述第一终端设备在确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束之后,还可以根据所述第k个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,重新确定第k个起始时间;或者根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,以及所述最小时间间隔,重新确定第k个起始时间;根据重新确定的所述第k个起始时间,重新确定所述第k个传输需求对应的资源;其中,重新确定的任意两个资源之间的时间间隔大于或等于所述最小时间间隔。
当所述N个传输需求中所述第n个传输需求还存在在后传输需求时,由于所述第n个传输需求对应的资源发生变化,可能导致任意两个资源之间的时间间隔不满足最小时间间隔的条件,或者出现到达该在后传输需求的起始时间该在后传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束的情况。因此,为了保证在后传输需求对应的资源的可用性,所述第一终端设备还可以重新确定该在后传输需求对应的资源。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第一终端设备在所述N个资源上传输数据之前,还可以根据第k个传输 需求对应的LBT时长,确定第k个起始时间;其中,所述第k个传输需求为所述第n个传输需求的在后传输需求,k为正整数,且n<k≤N;所述第k个起始时间为所述第k个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间;根据所述第k个起始时间,确定所述第k个传输需求对应的资源;所述第一终端设备在确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束之后,确定第二时长小于所述第k个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长;或者确定从第一时间开始经历所述第二时长后的第二时间晚于所述第k个传输需求对应的资源的起始时间;其中,所述第二时长为所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长与(k-n)个最小时间间隔之和;所述第一时间为确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束的时间;根据所述第k个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,重新确定第k个起始时间;或者根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,以及所述最小时间间隔,重新确定第k个起始时间;根据重新确定的所述第k个起始时间,重新确定所述第k个传输需求对应的资源;其中,重新确定的任意两个资源之间的时间间隔大于或等于所述最小时间间隔。
当所述N个传输需求中所述第n个传输需求还存在在后传输需求时,由于所述第n个传输需求对应的资源发生变化,可能导致任意两个资源之间的时间间隔不满足最小时间间隔的条件,或者出现到达该在后传输需求的起始时间该在后传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束的情况。因此,为了保证在后传输需求对应的资源的可用性,所述第一终端设备还可以对在后传输需求对应的资源进行判断,只对存在不可用风险的在后传输需求对应的资源进行重新确定。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第一终端设备可以根据所述N个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定N个起始时间;其中,所述N个起始时间中第j个起始时间为所述N个传输需求中第j个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间;当所述N个起始时间均未超过第三时间时,根据所述第n个起始时间,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源;其中,所述第三时间为从所述第一终端设备出现传输需求的时间开始经历第三时长后的时间,所述第三时长的取值是根据所述第一终端设备的数据传输时延确定的。
通过该设计,由于每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间均未超过第三时间,这样,当第一终端设备在确定的N个资源上传输数据时,可以保证数据的时延在第一终端设备的数据传输时延范围内。
在一种可能的设计中,当第g个起始时间超过所述第三时间(其中,g为正整数,且1≤g≤N)时,所述第一终端设备还可以通过以下方式实现资源配置:
方式一:向第二终端设备发送第一资源请求;接收来自所述第二终端设备的第一资源配置信息;其中,所述第一资源配置信息用于指示所述第二终端设备为所述第一终端设备分配的资源,所述第二终端设备为所述N个传输需求的接收端,所述第一资源请求所占用的传输资源为所述第一终端设备与所述第二终端设备预先协商的或协议约定的;
方式二:向网络设备发送第二资源请求;接收来自所述网络设备的第二资源配置信息;其中,所述第二资源配置信息用于指示所述网络设备为所述第一终端设备分配的资源;
方式三:使用第二终端设备的剩余传输时间COT所在的资源发送数据;其中,所述第二终端设备为所述N个传输需求的接收端。
由于某些传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间超过第三时间,这样,即使第一终端设备确定N个传输需求对应的N个资源,也可能无法保证数据的时延在第一终端设备的数据传输时延范围内。基于此,所述第一终端设备可以在第二终端设备或网络设备的剩余COT所在的资源上继续发送数据,从而保证数据传输时延。
在一种可能的设计中,所述第一终端设备可以获取M个传输需求对应的LBT时长;其中,所述M个传输需求中包含所述N个传输需求;M为大于N的整数;根据所述M个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定M个起始时间;其中,所述M个起始时间中第m个起始时间为所述M个传输需求中第m个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间;m为正整数,且1≤m≤M;其中,在所述M个传输需求中,所述N个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间未超过第三时间,除所述N个传输需求以外的其他传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间超过所述第三时间;所述第三时间为从所述第一终端设备出现传输需求的时间开始经历第三时长后的时间,所述第三时长的取值是根据所述第一终端设备的数据传输时延确定的;所述第一终端设备确定所述N个传输需求对应的资源,不确定所述M个传输需求中除所述N个传输需求以外的其他传输需求对应的资源;在上述情况下,在所述第一终端设备在所述N个资源上传输数据后,所述第一终端设备可以根据所述N个资源的应答响应所指示的传输结果,判断是否在第二终端设备或网络设备的剩余COT所在的资源上继续发送数据;其中,所述第二终端设备为所述N个传输需求的接 收端。
当M个传输需求中仅部分传输需求(即所述N个传输需求)的资源选择范围的起始时间超过第三时间,所述第一终端设备可以仅确定这部分传输需求对应的资源。这样,第一终端设备在所述N个传输需求对应的资源上传输数据后,根据所述N个传输需求的应答响应所指示的传输结果,判断是否在第二终端设备或网络设备的剩余COT所在的资源上继续发送数据。当该N个传输需求的应答响应所指示的传输结果表示数据传输成功时,第一终端设备无需在寻求其他资源配置方式;而当N个传输需求的应答响应所指示的传输结果表示数据传输失败时,第一终端设备可以采用上一设计中的资源配置方式继续传输数据。
可选的,当所述第一终端设备出现传输需求时,开始进行LBT;或者在确定所述N个资源过程中,开始进行LBT;或者在确定出所述N个资源后,开始进行LBT。
可选的,当所述PHY层向所述MAC层发送所述第n个起始时间时,开始进行LBT;或者当所述PHY层向所述MAC层发送所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围时,开始进行LBT;或者当所述PHY层向所述MAC层发送所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间单元以及候选资源集合时,开始进行LBT;或者当所述PHY层向所述MAC层发送所述第n个传输需求的候选资源集合时,开始进行LBT;或者当所述MAC层通知所述PHY层所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时,开始进行LBT。

在一种可能的设计中,所述终端设备还可以根据所述第一资源的频域位置在所述第一频带对应的多个第一子信道中确定第一目标子信道;根据所述第二资源的频域位置在所述第二频带对应的多个第二子信道中确定第二目标子信道;当所述第二目标子信道占用的RB数量大于所述第一目标子信道占用的RB数量时,根据所述第二目标子信道占用的RB数量对编码后的信号进行速率匹配,得到目标信号;或者当所述第二目标子信道占用的RB数量小于所述第一目标子信道占用的RB数量时,根据所述第二 目标子信道占用的RB数量对编码后的信号进行打孔,得到目标信号;其中,所述编码后的信号是根据所述第一目标子信道占用的RB数量对所述目标数据编码得到的;这样,所述终端设备可以在所述第二目标子信道上发送所述目标信号。

具体实施方式
本申请提供一种资源配置方法及设备,用于保证终端设备的通信效率。其中,方法和设备是基于同 一技术构思的,由于方法及设备解决问题的原理相似,因此设备与方法的实施可以相互参见,重复之处不再赘述。
以下对本申请中的部分用语进行解释说明,以便于本领域技术人员理解。
1)网络设备,是通信系统中将终端设备接入到无线网络的设备。所述网络设备作为无线接入网中的节点,又可以称为基站,还可以称为无线接入网(radio access network,RAN)节点(或设备)。
目前,一些网络设备的举例为:gNB、传输接收点(transmission reception point,TRP)、演进型节点B(evolved Node B,eNB)、无线网络控制器(radio network controller,RNC)、节点B(Node B,NB)、接入点(access point,AP)、基站控制器(base station controller,BSC)、基站收发台(base transceiver station,BTS)、家庭基站(例如,home evolved NodeB,或home Node B,HNB),或基带单元(base band unit,BBU)等。
另外,在一种网络结构中,所述网络设备可以包括集中单元(centralized unit,CU)节点和分布单元(distributed unit,DU)节点。这种结构将长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)系统中eNB的协议层拆分开,部分协议层的功能放在CU集中控制,剩下部分或全部协议层的功能分布在DU中,由CU集中控制DU。
2)终端设备,是一种向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备。终端设备又可以称为用户设备(user equipment,UE)、移动台(mobile station,MS)、移动终端(mobile terminal,MT)等。
例如,终端设备可以为具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、各种车载设备、路侧单元等。目前,一些终端设备的举例为:手机(mobile phone)、平板电脑、笔记本电脑、掌上电脑、移动互联网设备(mobile internet device,MID)、智能销售终端(point of sale,POS)、可穿戴设备,虚拟现实(virtual reality,VR)设备、增强现实(augmented reality,AR)设备、工业控制(industrial control)中的无线终端、无人驾驶(self driving)中的无线终端、远程手术(remote medical surgery)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、各类智能仪表(智能水表、智能电表、智能燃气表)、eLTE-DSA UE、具有接入回传一体化(integrated access and backhaul,IAB)能力的设备、车载电子控制单元(electronic control unit,ECU)等、车载电脑、车载巡航系统、远程信息处理器(telematics box,T-BOX)等。

4)频带,为一段连续的频率资源,作为通信设备进行数据传输过程中的载波。在本申请实施例中,频带具有两个特征,频点和带宽。频点和带宽可以决定频带的频率范围,包括频点的最小频率边界(还可以称为起始频率)和最大频率边界(还可以称为结束频率)。
根据子载波间隔(sub-carrier space,SCS)以及频带的带宽,频带中可以划分为多个子载波。示例性的,SCS的取值可以为15kHz、30kHz、60kHz等。
在频域上,一个资源块(resource block,RB)可以包含固定数量个子载波,因此,一个频带中可以包括多个RB。例如,在频域上的12个子载波可以组成一个RB。

8)应答响应,用于指示数据是否发送成功。数据的接收端根据数据的传输情况发送,从而通知发送端数据的传输情况,以使所述发送端根据该应答响应指示的数据传输结果判断是否需要重传该数据。
在一种实施方式中,在支持混合自动重传请求(Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest,HARQ)技术的通信系统中,在发送端的一次传输后,接收端可以针对该次传输的传输情况向发送端反馈应答响应。该应答响应又可以称为混合自动重传请求应答确认(HARQ-acknowledgment,HARQ-ACK),或者HARQ应答,或HARQ响应,简称为HARQ。
通常,应答响应中包括两类:确认应答(Acknowledgement,ACK)和否定应答(Negative Acknowledgement,NACK)。其中,ACK表示数据传输成功;NACK表示数据传输失败。
9)“和/或”,描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。字符“/”一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。

另外,需要理解的是,在本申请的描述中,“第一”、“第二”等词汇,仅用于区分描述的目的,而不能理解为指示或暗示相对重要性,也不能理解为指示或暗示顺序。
在介绍本申请实施例之前,先对本申请实施例涉及的一些技术进行说明。
一、sidelink场景中的一种资源配置方式
在sidelink场景中,终端设备在需要传输目标数据时,为该目标数据的传输(例如初传以及重传)预约多个不连续的资源,之后终端设备可以在预约的资源上传输该目标数据。本申请实施例不限定预约的资源数量N,其可以为4、5、10、20、24、36等大于或等于1的正整数。可选的,终端设备可以根据预约资源的数量阈值,确定本次需要预约的资源数量N。
示例性的,终端设备可以根据目标数据的可靠性需求,确定重复传输所述目标数据所需的预约资源数量N。其中,目标数据的可靠性要求高越高,重复传输的次数越多,需要预约的资源的数量N就越大;目标数据的可靠性要求越低,重复传输的次数越少,需要预约的资源的数量N也越小。
在一种实施方式中,当终端设备的介质访问控制(medium access control,MAC)层确定出现传输需求时(即t0),可以通知物理(Physical,PHY)层;此时PHY层可以在资源选择范围[t0+Toffset,t0+TPDB]内选择一些候选资源(后续可以称为候选资源集合),并将候选资源集合上报给MAC层。MAC层可以在该候选资源集合中选择出N个资源。其中,一个资源对应一个传输需求,每个传输需求用于进行一次传输(一次目标数据的重传)。资源选择范围又可以称为资源选择窗口。
其中,Toffset为资源选择范围的起始时间与终端设备出现传输需求的时间t0之间的偏移值;TPDB为根据终端设备的数据传输时延(例如数据包时延余量(packet delay budget,PDB))确定的,可选的,TPDB可以等于该数据传输时延,也可以小于该数据传输时延。Toffset和TPDB的具体取值由终端设备设置,其中,终端设备可以根据Toffset的取值范围确定Toffset的取值。示例性的,标准TS 38.214中限定Toffset的取值范围为 为与SCS有关,具体可以参考通信标准中的相关定义说明,此处不再赘述。
需要说明的是,终端设备预约的N个资源中,任意两个资源之间的时间间隔小于或等于最小时间间隔(minimum gap)。其中,最小时间间隔为网络设备通过无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)信令配置的,或者通信标准规定的。这样,终端设备在该时间间隔内,可以接收在先资源对应的应答响应和针对该应答响应的处理时延。因此,该最小时间间隔应大于或等于在先资源对应的应答响应的时延、该应答响应对应的资源的时长,以及终端设备对该应答响应的处理时延之和。
示例性的,参阅图1所示,终端设备的物理(Physical,PHY)层可以在感知窗口内感知信道情况,在t0时终端设备的MAC层通知该PHY层出现传输需求,PHY层根据感知窗口的感知结果,在资源选择范围[t0+Toffset,t0+TPDB]内选择候选资源集合,并将候选资源集合上报至MAC层;MAC层根据最小时间间隔,在候选资源集合中选择如图1中所示的3个资源,并将该3个资源通知PHY层,以使PHY层可以在该3个资源上发送数据。示例性的,在本申请中,资源和传输需求按照时间的先后顺序排序。
其中,感知窗口为终端设备出现传输需求t0之前的一段时间,用于终端设备感知,可以表示为 为终端设备的处理时延,Tp与感知窗口内的时隙数据有关。感知窗口与可以参考通信标准中的相关定义说明,此处不再赘述。
如图1中终端设备预约的3个资源所示,任意两个资源之间的时间间隔大于或等于最小时间间隔。这样,如果终端设备在资源1上传输数据后,接收到的资源1的应答响应为ACK,那么终端设备可以终止在资源2和资源3上传输数据,或者在资源2和资源3中传输其他数据,从而避免资源浪费。
二、sidelink场景中的资源配置
在新无线(new radio,NR)中,sidelink传输的资源是基于资源池的。所谓资源池,是一个逻辑上 的概念,一个资源池包括多个资源。其中,任意一个资源用于传输数据。终端设备进行数据传输时,都需要从资源池中选择一个资源进行传输。终端设备的资源选择过程,有两种情况:
情况一:终端设备使用的资源是网络设备的配置的。终端设备可以根据网络设备的指示信息,从资源池中选择资源进行数据传输。这种资源配置方式又称作模式1(Mode 1)。
情况二:终端设备自主从资源池中选择资源进行数据传输。这种资源配置方式称为模式2(Mode 2)。
可选的,每个资源池占用的频域资源包括至少一个子信道(subchannel)。根据目前的进展,在一个资源池内,各子信道占用的频域资源(RB数量)是相同的,在属于不同资源池的子信道中,各自占用的频域资源可能不同。
三、侧行连接-非授权频谱(sidelink-unlicense,SL-U)的接入机制
SL-U是目前通信标准讨论的一个重要课题,主要内容是在非授权频谱(unlicense)中进行sidelink传输。由于使用的频域资源是非授权频谱,因此通信标准引入两种接入机制:Type 1和Type 2。
Type 1适用于终端设备抢占信道的场景,需要终端设备进行先听后说(listen before talk,LBT)。即终端设备在传输之前需要监听信道,在监听到信道空闲后抢占信道使用该信道传输。
Type 2适用于分享其他终端设备通过Type 1抢到的资源。例如,终端设备1通过Type 1抢到了一段时间内的传输机会(标准称为信道占用时间(channel occupancy time,COT)),终端设备可以在该COT内进行数据传输外,还可以指示其他终端设备采用Type 2接入所占用的终端设备1的剩余COT。这种共享COT给其他终端设备(以终端设备2为例说明)的行为,称为COT共享(COT-sharing)。可选的,在一些情况下,进行COT-sharing的终端设备之间需要有关联,比如具有收发关系或者位于同一终端设备组等。
在一些实施例中,Type 2还可以进一步分为几种情况,下面以Type 2A和Type 2B为例进行说明。Type 2A为终端设备2在其他终端设备结束传输后的25μs内检测到信道空闲,则占用信道,即在感知其他终端结束传输后信道25μs内未被占用,则终端设备2占用该信道。Type 2B为终端设备2在其他终端设备结束传输后的16μs内检测到信道空闲,则占用信道。Type 2B与Type 2A的差别在于COT的时长额外增加了9μs,即一个感知时隙的时长。
其中,感知时隙(sensing slot)为在非授权频谱中用于终端设备感知信道是否繁忙的时间单元。一个感知时隙对应的时长可以为9μs。在本申请的一些实施例中,感知时隙与感知窗口无关。
在本申请的一些实施例中,终端设备的COT的时长可以与终端设备的信道接收优先级(channel access priority class,CAPC)有关。示例性的,当终端设备的CAPC为1时,COT的时长最大为2ms;当终端设备的CAPC为2时,COT的时长最大为4ms;当终端设备的CAPC为3或4时,COT的时长最大为6ms或10ms。
四、LBT机制
由于非授权频谱资源的共享性,容易造成同一资源被不同的通信设备(后续以终端设备为例进行说明)同时使用,因此,需要一种合理的资源竞争机制,保证使用同一非授权频段上的不同的通信设备之间公平共存的进行资源竞争。该资源竞争机制即LBT机制。
LBT机制要求终端设备在使用非授权频谱资源发送数据之前,先监听信道进行空闲信道评估(clear channel assessment,CCA)检测(后续称为信道检测),在确保信道空闲的情况下才能进行数据传输。
LBT的主要思想为:当终端设备需要发送数据前,终端设备可以生成一个随机数R。该随机数R用于表示数据发送前需检测到信道空闲的次数。终端设备可以通过一个计数器维护该随机数R,例如,该计数器的初始值为该随机数R。终端设备在生成随机数R后的每个感知时隙内进行信道检测,当在某个感知时隙内检测到信道空闲时,更新计数器使计数值减1;若终端设备在某个感知时隙内检测到信道忙,则停止更新计数器,并在后续的每个感知时隙内继续进行信道检测,直至检测到信道空闲后,启动该计数器的计数。终端设备通过上述方式持续进行信道检测并更新计数器,直至该计数器的计数为0时,开始占用信道并传输数据。
需要说明的是,终端设备在进行不同次LBT时分别生成的随机数可以不同。其中,终端设备可以在随机数取值范围内中产生随机数。该随机数取值范围可以与终端设备的CAPC有关。示例性的,当终端设备的CAPC为1时,随机数取值范围为[3,7];当终端设备的CAPC为2时,随机数取值范围为[7,15]; 当终端设备的CAPC为3或4时,随机数取值范围为[15,1023]。
在LBT机制中,终端设备生成的随机数R用于表示数据发送前需检测到信道空闲的次数,换句话说,该随机数R用于确定信道检测的感知时隙的个数。
因此,基于该随机数R可以确定终端设备的LBT时长,例如,LBT时长等于tsensing*R,或者等于tsensing*R+defer时长。而在终端设备进行LBT过程中,根据剩余随机数Rleft,确定终端设备的LBT剩余时长。示例性的,LBT剩余时长可以等于tsensing*Rleft,又或者等于tsensing*Rleft+defer时长。其中,tsensing为感知时隙的时长,defer时长=16μs+mp*9μs。mp与终端设备的CAPC有关,具体可以参考通信标准中的相关定义说明,此处不再赘述。
该LBT时长又可以称为退避时间窗(contention window,CW),该随机数R又可以称为退避随机数。
五、循环前缀扩展(cyclic prefix extension,CPE)
与无线保真(wireless fidelity,WiFi)系统不同,SL-U作为一个同步系统,只能在指定的时域位置进行接入。因此,为了更好的占用信道,终端设备在接入信道之前,还可以发送CPE来抢占信道。示例性的,终端设备具体抢占信道的时间长度可以与终端设备的CAPC有关,也可以是标准规定的,还可以终端设备内部设置的。
终端设备发送的CPE的时长可以记为tcpe。示例性的,tcpe一般不超过1个符号的时间。
六、新无线-非授权频谱(new radio-unlicense,NR-U)的资源配置方式
在NR-U场景中,网络设备与终端设备在非授权频谱上进行通信。网络设备可以调度多个终端设备在一个时隙内向网络设备发送数据。由于每个终端设备的传输要么在一个时隙上承载,要么在连续多个时隙上承载,因此,终端设备可以在网络设备的COT内发送数据,或者在网络设备调度的位置上进行LBT抢占信道,即可完成传输需求。
下面结合附图对本申请实施例做进行具体说明。
图2示出了本申请实施例提供的方法适用的通信场景。参阅图2所示,在该通信场景中可以包括:网络设备,以及多个终端设备(如图2中的终端设备a和终端设备b)。
网络设备,是网络侧能够接收和发射无线信号的实体,负责为在其管理的小区内的终端设备提供无线接入有关的服务,实现物理层功能、资源调度和无线资源管理、服务质量(Quality of Service,QoS)管理、无线接入控制以及移动性管理功能。
终端设备,为用户侧能够接收和发射无线信号的实体,需要通过网络设备接入网络。
其中,图2所示的通信场景,终端设备支持sidelink通信。sidelink通信技术是一种终端设备之间能够直连的近场通信技术,又称为近距离服务(proximity services,ProSe)通信技术,或D2D通信技术。基于此,所处地理位置较近、且支持sidelink通信的多个终端设备可以组成一个sidelink系统,如图2中的终端设备a和终端设备b组成的sidelink系统所示。在该sidelink系统中,终端设备之间可以进行sidelink通信。
基于图2所示的通信场景中,网络设备与终端设备之间可以通过空中接口(即Uu接口)连接,从而实现终端设备与网络设备之间的通信(这种通信可以简称Uu通信,或者蜂窝网通信)。邻近的终端设备之间可以通过Pc5接口,建立sidelink连接进行通信。
在图2所示的通信场景中,sidelink系统中的终端设备可以使用非授权频谱进行数据传输。因此,该sidelink系统又称为SL-U系统。
还需要说明的是,如图2所示的通信场景作为一个示例,并不对本申请实施例提供的方法适用的通信场景构成限定。例如,网络设备与终端设备之间可以采用各种制式的通信技术,例如第五代(The 5th Generation,5G)通信技术(即NR技术)、4G通信技术、第六代(The 6th Generation,6G)通信技术,以及基于上述技术演进的通信技术。另外,sidelink-U系统可以适用于V2X、长期演进-车联网(LTE-vehicle,LTE-V)、V2V、车联网、机器类通信(Machine Type Communications,MTC)、物联网(internet of things,IoT)、长期演进-机器到机器(LTE-machine to machine,LTE-M)、机器到机器(machine to machine,M2M)、等具体场景中,本申请对此不予限定。
通过以上第一点关于sidelink场景中的资源预约技术的相关描述可知,SL-U系统与NR-U系统的资源配置方式不同,即在SL-U系统中终端设备可以为传输目标数据预约至少一个资源,以保证该目标数据的传输可靠性。然而,上述第一点提供的资源预约方案中未考虑到信道情况,SL-U系统使用的是非授权频谱,不考虑信道情况,很可能会导致多个终端设备使用同一资源进行传输,影响终端设备的通信效率。
进一步的,通过上述第三点对SL-U的接入机制、以及第四点对LBT机制的描述可知,终端设备在非授权频谱中抢占信道时,需要通过LBT监听信道。由于上述第一点提供的资源预约方案不考虑LBT时长,因此,在SL-U中使用该方案,可以会出现以下情况:时域上到达了预约的资源的起始时间,但是终端设备的LBT还未结束,这就导致预约的该资源不可用,进而影响终端设备的通信效率。
为了解决以上问题,保证SL-U系统中终端设备的通信效率,本申请实施例提供了一种资源配置方法。该方法可以适用于如图2所示的通信场景中。下面参阅图3所示的流程图,以第一终端设备和第二终端设备为例,对本申请实施例提供的方法进行详细说明。
S301:第一终端设备获取N个传输需求对应的先听后说LBT时长。其中,N为大于或等于1的整数。
可选的,每个传输需求为所述第一终端设备传输目标数据的需求,其中,第1个传输需求用于初传所述目标数据,后续其他传输需求用于重传所述目标数据。可选的,在所述第一终端设备出现传输需求时(记为t0),所述第一终端设备的MAC层可以通知所述第一终端设备的PHY层,由该PHY层执行S301。在一种实施方式中,所述第一终端设备的PHY层可以确定传输需求的数量N(即重传目标数据的最大次数N)。
可选的,所述第一终端设备出现传输需求可以但不限于包括:所述第一终端设备生成或接收到需要传输的目标数据时。由于在所述第一终端设备出现传输需求时,所述MAC层向所述PHY层通知出现传输需求。因此,所述第一终端设备出现传输需求的时间,可以限定为所述MAC层向所述PHY层通知出现传输需求的时间。
在一种实施方式中,所述第一终端设备的PHY层可以针对所述N个传输需求,生成随机数R;然后所述PHY层可以根据该随机数R,确定所述N个传输需求对应的LBT时长,例如,所述N个传输需求对应的LBT时长等于tsensing*R,或者等于tsensing*R+defer时长。在本实施方式中,所述N个传输需求对应的LBT时长相同。
在另一种实施方式中,所述第一终端设备的PHY层可以分别针对每个传输需求,生成对应的随机数;然后所述PHY层可以根据每个传输需求对应的随机数,分别确定每个传输需求对应的LBT时长。以第n个传输需求为例,所述PHY层生成的所述第n个传输需求对应的随机数记为Rn,那么所述PHY层可以根据所述第n个传输需求对应的随机数Rn,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长。例如所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长等于tsensing*Rn,或者tsensing*Rn+defer时长。其中,n为正整数,且1≤n≤N。在本实施例方式中,不同传输需求对应的LBT时长可以不同。
其中,tsensing为感知时隙的时长。
S302:所述第一终端设备根据所述N个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定N个资源。其中,所述N个资源与所述N个传输需求一一对应,且当N为大于1的整数时任意两个资源之间的时间间隔大于或等于最小时间间隔。
通过该步骤,所述第一终端设备可以根据所述N个传输需求对应的LBT时长,预约资源。由于考虑到LBT时长,可以减少出现到达某个传输需求对应的资源时该传输需求的LBT时长还未结束的情况,从而可以提高第一终端设备能够使用该传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率,从而保证终端设备的通信效率。
另外,当传输需求的数量为多个时,所述第一终端设备还需要考虑任意两个资源之间的时间间隔大于或等于最小时间间隔,以保证所述第一终端设备可以在该时间间隔内,可以接收在先资源对应的应答响应,以及针对该应答响应指示的结果进行后续处理。
可选的,在S302中,所述第一终端设备可以根据每个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定每个传输需求对应的资源。下面以第n个传输需求为例进行说明,所述第一终端设备可以通过以下步骤,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源:
A1:所述第一终端设备根据第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定第n个起始时间。其中,n为正 整数,且1≤n≤N;所述第n个起始时间为所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间。
A2:所述第一终端设备根据所述第n个起始时间,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源。
需要说明的是,所述第一终端设备可以通过A1,确定N个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间后,再执行A2,以使在确定N个资源时能够所述第一终端设备可以保证任意两个资源之间的时间间隔大于或等于最小时间间隔。
可选的,在本申请实施例中,所述第一终端设备可以但不限于通过以下方式1至方式3中任一方式,执行上述步骤A1,确定所述第n个起始时间。
方式1:所述第一终端设备根据第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定第n个起始时间,不考虑其他因素。
基于该方式1,所述第n个起始时间符合t0+Tn。其中,Tn符合以下公式:
或者
其中,t0为所述第一终端设备出现传输需求的时间;tn,LBT为所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长;ts为用于调度数据传输资源的时间单元的长度;Toffset为偏移值;tcpe为循环前缀扩展的时长。
示例性的,所述第一终端设备出现传输需求的时间t0可以为所述第一终端设备的MAC层向PHY层通知出现传输需求的时间。可选的,用于调度数据传输资源的时间单元可以时隙、半个时隙或者更小的时间粒度,本申请对此不作限定。ts的取值可以根据时间单元的设置进行具体设置。Toffset的取值可以沿用第一点技术说明中的参数(Toffset)的取值。示例性的,tcpe一般不超过1个符号的时间。
通过方式1,可以保证所述第一终端设备确定的所述第n个起始时间的位置不早于从t0开始经历第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长后的位置,即(t0+Tn)≥(t0+tn,LBT)。这样,在t0与所述第n个起始时间(即t0+Tn)之间,所述第一终端设备可以进行LBT。由于根据方式1,在所述第n个起始时间之前为所述第一终端设备进行LBT预留了足够的时间,因此,该方式可以降低出现以下情况的概率:到达所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时所述第n个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束,从而可以提高所述第一终端设备能够使用第n个传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率。
进一步的,在所述第一终端设备在接入信道前发送CPE的场景中,所述第一终端设备不仅考虑到第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,还考虑到所述第一终端设备发送CPE的时长tcpe,从而可以保证所述第一终端设备确定的所述第n个起始时间的位置不早于从t0开始经历第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长并经历发送CPE后的位置,即(t0+Tn)≥(t0+tn,LBT+tcpe)。这样,在t0与所述第n个起始时间(即t0+Tn)之间,所述第一终端设备可以进行LBT,以及发送CPE。由于根据方式1,在所述第n个起始时间之前为所述第一终端设备进行LBT和发送CPE预留了足够的时间,因此,该方式可以降低出现以下情况的概率:到达所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时所述第n个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束或发送CPE未结束,从而可以提高所述第一终端设备能够使用第n个传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率。
方式2:所述第一终端设备在确定所述第n个起始时间时,可以不仅考虑所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,还可以考虑所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源(即该在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时域资源)。
因此,在方式2中,所述第一终端设备可以通过以下步骤执行步骤A1:
所述第一终端设备根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,以及所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源,确定所述第n个起始时间;其中,所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求为在所述N个传输需求中资源位置位于所述n个传输需求之前的传输需求。应注意,只有在n大于1时,所述第n个传输需求才会有在先传输需求。而第1个传输需求没有在先传输需求,因此第1个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间可以通过上述方式1来确定。
示例性的,在本申请实施例中,以传输需求对应的资源在时域上的先后位置对所述N个传输需求进行排序。因此,所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求为第1个传输需求至第n-1个传输需求。
基于方式2,所述第n个起始时间符合t0+Tn。其中,Tn符合以下公式:
或者
或者
或者
其中,t0为所述第一终端设备出现传输需求的时间;tn,LBT为所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长;ts为用于调度数据传输资源的时间单元的长度;Toffset为偏移值;tcpe为循环前缀扩展的时长;ti,R为所述第n个传输需求的第i个在先传输需求对应的资源的时长,为所述第n个传输需求的n-1个在先传输需求对应的资源的时长之和;Si,R为所述第n个传输需求的第i个在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时间单元的个数,为所述第n个传输需求的n-1个在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时间单元的个数之和。
关于t0、时间单元、ts、Toffset,以及tcpe的描述,可以参考以上方式1中的描述,此处不再赘述。
若所述第一终端设备在所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源上传输数据,那么由于信道被占用,根据上述第四点技术说明中对LBT机制的描述可知,所述第一终端设备在针对所述第n个传输需求进行LBT过程中,所述第n个传输需求的实际LBT时长可能会延长。并且相对于在S301中确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,所述第n个传输需求的实际LBT时长可能会延长第一延迟时长。所述第一延迟时长与所述n-1个在先传输需求对应的资源占用的总时长相关。
通过方式2,可以保证所述第一终端设备确定的所述第n个起始时间的位置 这样,在t0与所述第n个起始时间(即t0+Tn)之间,所述第一终端设备可以进行LBT。由于根据方式2,在所述第n个起始时间之前为所述第一终端设备进行LBT预留了足够的时间,因此,该方式可以降低出现以下情况的概率:到达所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时所述第n个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束,从而可以提高所述第一终端设备能够使用第n个传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率。
进一步的,在方式2中,所述第一终端设备不仅考虑到第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,还考虑到所述第一终端设备发送CPE的时长tcpe,从而可以保证所述第一终端设备确定的所述第n个起始时间的位置这样,在t0与所述第n个起始时间(即t0+Tn)之间,所述第一终端设备可以进行LBT,以及发送CPE。由于根据方式2,在所述第n个起始时间之前为所述第一终端设备进行LBT和发送CPE预留了足够的时间,因此,该方式可以降低出现以下情况的概率:到达所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时所述第n个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束或发送CPE未结束,从而可以提高所述第一终端设备能够使用第n个传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率。
相对于方式1,方式2还考虑到了所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时域资源,因此,相对于方式1,通过方式2计算得到的所述第n个起始时间中增加了第一延迟时长,该第一延迟时长大于或等于所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时长总和。基于此,相对于方式1,通过方式2可以进一步降低出现以下情况的概率:到达所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时所述第n个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束。
方式3:所述第一终端设备在确定所述第n个起始时间时,可以不仅考虑所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,还可以考虑所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源(即该在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时域资源),以及所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应对应的资源(即该在先应答响应对应的资源所占用的时域资源)。
因此,在方式3中,所述第一终端设备可以通过以下步骤执行步骤A1:
所述第一终端设备根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源,以及所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应对应的资源,确定所述第n个起始时间。
其中,所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求为在所述N个传输需求中资源位置位于所述n个传输需求之前的传输需求;所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应包括在所述第n个传输需求对应的资源之前所述第一终端设备或其它终端设备应接收的应答响应。应注意,只有在n大于1时,所述第n个传输需求 才会有在先传输需求。而第1个传输需求没有在先传输需求,可以认为第1个传输需求的在先传输需求占用的时域资源为0。
还应注意,所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应中其他终端设备应接收的应答响应可以通过如下步骤确定:所述第一终端设备检测到其他终端设备的传输后,预期该其他终端设备接收这些传输的应答响应所在的时间位置位于在t0之后,且在所述第n个传输需求对应的资源之前,那么,所述第一终端设备可以确定这些传输的应答响应为所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应。
示例性的,在本申请实施例中,以传输需求对应的资源在时域上的先后位置对所述N个传输需求进行排序。因此,所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求为第1个传输需求至第n-1个传输需求。
在第一种设计中,所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应包括所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求的应答响应。在本设计中,所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应包括第1个传输需求至第n-1个传输需求的应答响应。
在第二种设计中,所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应包括所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求的应答响应,以及至少一个第一传输的应答响应;其中,所述第一传输为所述第一终端设备监听到的未接收到应答响应的传输,即后续可能会接收到应答响应的传输。在本设计中,所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应包括第1个传输需求至第n-1个传输需求的应答响应,以及第一传输的应答响应。总之,所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应可以包括所述第一终端设备预期的时域位置在t0之后,在第n个传输需求对应的资源之前的应答响应。
可选的,所述第一传输可以为所述第一终端设备或其他终端设备在t0前已发生、但未接收到应答响应的传输。
可选的,所述第一终端设备可以在t0前监听信道;若未监听到第一传输,那么所述第一终端设备可以确定所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应包括所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求的应答响应(即上述第一种设计);若监听到至少一个第一传输,那么所述终端设备可以确定所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应包括所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求的应答响应,以及至少一个第一传输的应答响应(即上述第二种设计)。
基于方式3,所述第n个起始时间符合t0+Tn。其中,Tn符合以下公式:
或者
或者
或者
其中,t0为所述第一终端设备出现传输需求的时间;tn,LBT为所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长;ts为用于调度数据传输资源的时间单元的长度;Toffset为偏移值;tcpe为循环前缀扩展的时长;ti,R为所述第n个传输需求的第i个在先传输需求对应的资源的时长,为所述第n个传输需求的n-1个在先传输需求对应的资源的时长之和;tn,HARQ为所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应对应的资源的总时长;Si,R为所述第n个传输需求的第i个在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时间单元的个数,为所述第n个传输需求的n-1个在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时间单元的个数之和;Sn,HARQ为所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应对应的资源所占用的时间单元的总个数。
关于t0、时间单元、ts、Toffset,以及tcpe的描述,可以参考以上方式1中的描述,此处不再赘述。
当所述第一终端设备在所述第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源上传输数据,或者一些终端设备(即所述至少一个第一传输的接收端)在所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应对应的资源上传输应答响应,那么由于信道被占用,根据上述第四点技术说明中对LBT机制的描述可知,所述第一终端设备在针对所述第n个传输需求进行LBT过程中,所述第n个传输需求的实际LBT时长可能会延长。并且相对于在S301中确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,所述第n个传输需求的实际LBT时长可能会延长第二延迟时长。所述第二延迟时长与以下内容相关:所述n-1个在先传输需求对应的资源占用的总时长与所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应对应的资源占用的总时长之和。
通过方式3,可以保证所述第一终端设备确定的所述第n个起始时间的位置 这样,在t0与所述第n个起始时间(即t0+Tn)之间,所述第一终端设备可以进行LBT。由于根据方式3,在所述第n个起始时间之前为所述第一终端设备进行LBT预留了足够的时间,因此,该方式可以降低出现以下情况的概率:到达所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时所述第n个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束,从而可以提高所述第一终端设备能够使用第n个传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率。
进一步的,在方式3中,所述第一终端设备不仅考虑到第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,还考虑到所述第一终端设备发送CPE的时长tcpe,从而可以保证所述第一终端设备确定的所述第n个起始时间的位置这样,在t0与所述第n个起始时间(即t0+Tn)之间,所述第一终端设备可以进行LBT,以及发送CPE。由于方式3,在所述第n个起始时间之前为所述第一终端设备进行LBT和发送CPE预留了足够的时间,因此,该方式可以降低出现以下情况的概率:到达所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时所述第n个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束或发送CPE未结束,从而可以提高所述第一终端设备能够使用第n个传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率。
相对于方式2,方式3还考虑到了所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应对应的资源所占用的时域资源,因此,相对于方式2,通过方式3计算得到的所述第n个起始时间中增加了第二延迟时长,该第二延迟时长大于或等于所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应对应的资源所占用的时长总和。基于此,相对于方式2,通过方式3可以进一步降低出现以下情况的概率:到达所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时所述第n个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束。
可选的,在本申请实施例中,所述第一终端设备可以但不限于通过以下方式,执行步骤A2。下面继续以第n个传输需求为例进行说明。
方式一:所述第一终端设备根据所述第n个起始时间(即所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间),确定所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围;然后,所述第一终端设备在所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围内,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源。
可选的,所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间已确定,所述n个传输需求的资源选择范围的结束时间由所述第一终端设备的数据传输时延PDB确定。例如,该资源选择范围的结束时间为t0+TPDB。其中,t0为所述第一终端设备出现传输需求的时间,TPDB为根据所述第一终端设备的数据传输时延确定的,例如TPDB可以小于或等于所述第一终端设备的数据传输时延。
方式二:所述第一终端设备根据所述第n个起始时间(即所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间),确定所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间单元;所述第一终端设备还可以确定候选资源集合;最后,所述第一终端设备根据所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围起始时间单元,在所述资源候选集合中,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源。
可选的,所述第n个传输需求对应的资源在所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围起始时间单元之后。
可选的,所述候选资源集合中可以包括所述N个传输需求对应的候选资源。其中,所述候选资源集合可以为所述第一终端设备选择的,具体过程可以参考第一点技术说明中的描述,此处不再赘述。示例性的,所述第一终端设备可以根据在感知窗口中的感知结果,在[t0+Toffset,t0+TPDB]中确定的所述候选资源集合。
可选的,所述候选资源集合中的任意两个候选资源之间的时间间隔大于或等于所述最小时间间隔。
方式三:所述第一终端设备根据所述第n个起始时间(即所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间),确定所述第n个传输需求的候选资源集合;然后,所述第一终端设备在所述第n个传输需求的候选资源集合中,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源。
可选的,在所述候选资源集合中,第一候选资源(即时域位置最前的候选资源)的起始时间等于或大于所述第n个起始时间。可选的,第二候选资源(即时域位置最后的候选资源)的结束时间小于t0+TPDB
还应说明的是,上述方式一至方式三是为了描述清楚的目的,以第n个传输需求为例进行说明的。然而,在实际场景中,上述方式一至方式三中的每个步骤均为所述第一终端设备针对所述N个传输需求并行执行的,且针对所述N个传输需求执行完前一步骤后,再并行执行下面的步骤。
由于资源配置过程可能涉及到第一终端设备的PHY层和MAC层,因此下面以PHY层和MAC层的角度来示例性的说明上述步骤A1-A2的资源配置过程。
其中,在A1中,所述PHY层根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定所述第n个起始时间。
实施方式一:所述第一终端设备通过上述方式一,实现步骤A2的情况。所述第一终端设备的PHY层和MAC层执行以下步骤:
A2-1-1:所述PHY层向所述MAC层发送所述第n个起始时间。
A2-1-2:所述MAC层根据所述第n个起始时间,确定所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围。
A2-1-3:所述MAC层在所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围内,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源。
其中,所述资源选择范围可以参考以上对方式一的描述,此处不再赘述。
实施方式二:所述第一终端设备通过上述方式一,实现步骤A2的情况。所述第一终端设备的PHY层和MAC层执行以下步骤:
A2-2-1:所述PHY层根据所述第n个起始时间,确定所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围。
A2-2-2:所述PHY层向所述MAC层发送所述第n个传输需求的资源选择范围。

在本实施例四中的所述候选资源集合可以参考以上方式三中对候选资源集合的描述,此处不再赘述。
需要说明的是,上述实施方式一至实施方式四是为了描述清楚的目的,以第n个传输需求为例进行说明的。然而,在实际场景中,上述实施方式一至实施方式四中的每个步骤均为所述第一终端设备针对所述N个传输需求并行执行的,且针对所述N个传输需求执行完前一步骤后,再并行执行下面的步骤。
应注意,在上述方式一至方式三中,所述第一终端设备在并行确定所述N个传输需求中每个传输需求对应的资源时,需要确保确定的任意两个资源之间的时间间隔大于或等于所述最小时间间隔。同样的,在上述实施方式一至实施方式四中,所述第一终端设备的MAC层在并行确定所述N个传输需求中每个传输需求对应的资源时,也需要确保确定的任意两个资源之间的时间间隔大于或等于所述最小时间间隔。
在一种实施方式中,所述第一终端设备/MAC层可以按照时域位置从后到前的顺序,先确定第N个传输需求对应的资源;然后在满足最小时间间隔的要求下确定第N-1个传输需求对应的资源;直至确定第1个传输需求对应的资源后结束。

类似的,在又一种实施方式中,所述第一终端设备/MAC层可以按照待选资源集合的时域范围从小到大的顺序,先在时域范围最小的待选资源集合中选择出一个资源;然后在满足最小时间间隔的要求下,在时域范围次小的待选资源集合中选择出下一个资源;直至在时域范围最大的待选资源集合中选择出一个资源后结束。
需要说明的是,所述第一终端设备可以同时对所述N个传输需求开始LBT。可选的,所述第一终端设备可以但不限于通过以下方式,开始进行LBT:
方式a:当所述第一终端设备出现传输需求时(即在t0时),开始进行LBT。
方式b:在确定所述N个资源过程中,开始进行LBT。
示例性的,在所述第一终端设备通过上述方式一确定所述N个资源过程中,所述第一终端设备可以在确定出所述N个传输需求的资源选择范围后,开始进行LBT。

示例性的,在所述第一终端设备通过上述实施方式三确定所述N个资源过程中,当所述PHY层向所述MAC层发送所述N个传输需求中每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间单元,以及候选资源集合时,开始进行LBT。
示例性的,在所述第一终端设备通过上述实施方式四确定所述N个资源过程中,当所述PHY层向所述MAC层发送所述N个传输需求中每个传输需求的候选资源集合时,开始进行LBT。
方式c:在确定出所述N个资源后,开始进行LBT。
示例性的,在所述第一终端设备通过上述实施例一至实施例四,确定所述N个资源的情况下,当所述MAC层确定出所述N个资源后,当所述MAC层通知所述PHY层所述N个资源时,开始进行LBT。
如图3所示,当所述第一终端设备通过上述S301-S302确定所述N个资源后,所述第一终端设备可以在所述N个资源上向第二终端设备传输数据,即分别在每个资源上传输数据,其中,第二终端设备为所述N个传输需求的接收端。在所述第一终端设备在所述N个资源上传输数据的过程中,可能会发生到达某个传输需求对应的资源上,针对该传输需求进行的LBT还未结束(即该传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束),此时,所述第一终端设备还可以为该传输需求重选资源。下面继续以第n个传输需求为例进行说明。
S1:所述第一终端设备在所述N个资源上传输数据的过程中,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束。
可选的,所述第一终端设备确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束,包括以下至少一项:

又示例性的,所述第一终端设备在t1确定所述第n个传输需求对应的剩余随机数Rn,left等于0,但由 于所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长还包括defer时长,此时也可以确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束;且此时所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长可以等于defer时长。
S2:所述第一终端设备根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,重新确定第n个起始时间。
可选的,所述第一终端设备可以根据剩余随机数Rn,left确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长tn,LBT,left,即tn,LBT,left=tsensing*Rn,left,或者tn,LBT,left=tsensing*Rn,left+defer时长。
可选的,所述第一终端设备可以沿用上述步骤A1中的思想,根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,重新确定第n个起始时间。下面根据所述第一终端设备在步骤A1中确定第n个起始时间的方式,对重新确定第n个起始时间的方式进行说明。
方式1-1:所述第一终端设备采用方式1执行步骤A1。在该情况下,所述第一终端设备在重新确定第n个起始时间时,可以考虑所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,不考虑其他因素。
基于方式1-1,重新确定的所述第n个起始时间符合t0+Tn′。其中,Tn′符合以下公式:
或者
其中,t1为确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束的时间,即所述第一时间。公式中的其他参数可以参考上述方式1中的描述,此处不再赘述。
方式2-1:所述第一终端设备采用方式2执行步骤A1。在该情况下,所述第一终端设备在重新确定所述第n个起始时间时,可以不仅考虑所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,还可以考虑所述第n个传输需求的目标在先传输需求对应的资源(即该目标在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时域资源)。其中,所述目标在先传输需求为在所述N个传输需求中资源位置位于所述第n个传输需求之前,且在t0至t1之间所述第一终端设备未在对应的资源上传输数据的传输需求。
下面以所述第n个传输需求的目标在先传输需求的数量为H个,即所述N个传输需求中,从第n-H个传输需求到第n-1个传输需求。H为正整数。
基于方式2-1,重新确定的所述第n个起始时间符合t0+Tn′。其中,Tn′符合以下公式:
或者
或者
或者
其中,t1为确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束的时间,即所述第一时间。ti,R为第i个传输需求对应的资源的时长,为所述第n个传输需求的H个目标在先传输需求对应的资源的时长之和;Si,R为第i个传输需求对应的资源所占用的时间单元的个数,为所述第n个传输需求的H个目标在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时间单元的个数之和。公式中的其他参数可以参考上述方式2中的描述,此处不再赘述。
方式3-1:所述第一终端设备采用方式3执行步骤A1.在该情况下,所述第一终端设备在重新确定所述第n个起始时间时,可以不仅考虑所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,还可以考虑所述第n个传输需求的目标在先传输需求对应的资源(即该目标在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时域资源),以及所述第n个传输需求的目标在先应答响应对应的资源(即该在先应答响应对应的资源所占用的时域资源)。其中,所述目标在先传输需求为在所述N个传输需求中资源位置位于所述第n个传输需求之前,且在t0至t1之间所述第一终端设备未在对应的资源上传输数据的传输需求。
所述第n个传输需求的目标在先应答响应包括在t1之后、所述第n个传输需求对应的资源之前,所述第一终端设备或其它终端设备应接收的应答响应。可选的,所述目标在先应答响应包括所述第n个传输需求的目标在先传输需求的应答响应,还可以包括至少一个第二传输的应答响应。其中,所述第二传输为所述第一终端设备在t1之前监听到的未接收到应答响应的传输。
同上述方式3中“所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应中其他终端设备应接收的应答响应”类似的, 本方式3-1中的其他终端设备应接收的应答响应也是所述第一终端设备检测到其他终端设备的传输后,预期该其他终端设备接收这些传输的应答响应所在的时间位置位于在t0之后,且在所述第n个传输需求对应的资源之前确定的。
下面以所述第n个传输需求的目标在先传输需求的数量为H个,即所述N个传输需求中,从第n-H个传输需求到第n-1个传输需求。H为正整数。
基于方式3-1,重新确定的所述第n个起始时间符合t0+Tn′。其中,Tn′符合以下公式:
或者
或者
或者
其中,t1为确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束的时间,即所述第一时间。ti,R为第i个传输需求对应的资源的时长,为所述第n个传输需求的H个目标在先传输需求对应的资源的时长之和;Si,R为第i个传输需求对应的资源所占用的时间单元的个数,为所述第n个传输需求的H个目标在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时间单元的个数之和;t′n,HARQ为所述第n个传输需求的目标在先应答响应对应的资源的总时长;S′n,HARQ为所述第n个传输需求的目标在先应答响应对应的资源所占用的时间单元的总个数。
公式中的其他参数可以参考上述方式2中的描述,此处不再赘述。
通过以上方式,可以在重新确定的所述第n个起始时间之前为所述第一终端设备对所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长预留足够的时间,可以降低出现以下情况下的概率:到达重新确定的所述第n个传输需求对应的资源时所述第n个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束,从而可以提高所述第一终端设备能够使用第n个传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率。
S3:所述第一终端设备根据重新确定的所述第n个起始时间,重新确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源。
所述第一终端设备执行S3的实现方式可以参考以上对步骤A2的具体描述,此处不再赘述。
通过以上S1-S3,可以重新确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源。然而,当所述N个传输需求中还存在所述第n个传输需求的在后传输需求时,由于所述第n个传输需求对应的资源发生变化,可能导致任意两个资源之间的时间间隔不满足最小时间间隔的条件,或者出现到达该在后传输需求的起始时间该在后传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束的情况。基于此,本申请实施例还通过了以下两种实施方式,重新确定该在后传输需求对应的资源。
第一种实施方式:所述第一终端设备在通过S1确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束后,直接通过以下步骤,重新确定所述第n个传输需求的在后传输需求对应的资源。下面以所述第n个传输需求的在后传输需求为第k个传输需求为例进行说明。
F1:所述第一终端设备根据所述第k个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,重新确定第k个起始时间;或者根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,以及所述最小时间间隔,重新确定第k个起始时间。其中,k为正整数,且n<k≤N;第k个起始时间为所述第k个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间;
在一种实现方式中,所述第一终端设备可以根据所述第k个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,重新确定第k个起始时间。具体过程可以参考以上S2中的方式1-1、方式2-1,以及方式3-1中的描述,此处不再赘述。
在另一种实现方式中,所述第一终端设备可以根据所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,以及所述最小时间间隔,重新确定第k个起始时间。具体过程也可以参考以上S2中的方式1-1、方式2-1,以及方式3-1中的描述,此处不再赘述。下面进行具体说明。
方式1-2:重新确定的所述第n个起始时间符合t0+Tk′。其中,Tk′符合以下公式:
或者
其中,tmingap为最小时间间隔的时长。
方式2-2:重新确定的所述第k个起始时间符合t0+Tk′。其中,Tn′符合以下公式:
或者
或者
或者
其中,所述第k个传输需求的目标在先传输需求的数量为J个,即所述N个传输需求中,从第k-J个传输需求到第k-1个传输需求。所述第k个传输需求的J个目标在先传输需求对应的资源的时长之和;为所述第k个传输需求的J个目标在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时间单元的个数之和。
方式3-2:重新确定的所述第k个起始时间符合t0+Tk′。其中,Tn′符合以下公式:
或者
或者
或者
其中,所述第k个传输需求的目标在先传输需求的数量为J个,即所述N个传输需求中,从第k-J个传输需求到第k-1个传输需求。所述第k个传输需求的J个目标在先传输需求对应的资源的时长之和;为所述第k个传输需求的J个目标在先传输需求对应的资源所占用的时间单元的个数之和;t′k,HARQ为所述第k个传输需求的目标在先应答响应对应的资源的总时长;S′k,HARQ为所述第k个传输需求的目标在先应答响应对应的资源所占用的时间单元的总个数。
通过以上方式,可以在重新确定的所述第k个起始时间之前为所述第一终端设备对所述第k个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长预留足够的时间,可以降低出现以下情况下的概率:到达重新确定的所述第k个传输需求对应的资源时所述第k个传输需求的LBT时长还未结束,从而可以提高所述第一终端设备能够使用第k个传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率。另外,该方式还可以考虑到重新确定的任意两个资源之间的时间间隔大于或等于所述最小时间间隔,为任意两个资源之间的时间间隔预留足够的时间。
F2:所述第一终端设备根据重新确定的所述第k个起始时间,重新确定所述第k个传输需求对应的资源;其中,在所述第n个传输需求和所述第n个传输需求的在后传输需求中,重新确定的任意两个资源之间的时间间隔大于或等于所述最小时间间隔。
所述第一终端设备执行F2的实现方式可以参考以上对步骤A2的具体描述,此处不再赘述。
第二种实施方式:所述第一终端设备在通过S1确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束后,还可以通过以下至少一项判断条件,判断是否需要重新确定所述第n个传输需求的在后传输需求对应的资源。下面继续以所述第n个传输需求的在后传输需求为第k个传输需求为例进行说明。
条件一:确定第二时长小于所述第k个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长;
条件二:确定从第一时间开始经历所述第二时长后的第二时间晚于所述第k个传输需求对应的资源的起始时间;
其中,所述第二时长为所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长与(k-n)个最小时间间隔之和;所述第一时间为确定所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束的时间(即t1)。
可选的,上述判断条件还可以包含条件三:重新确定的第k-1个传输需求对应的资源与第k个传输需求对应的资源之间的时间间隔小于最小时间间隔。当然,基于任意两个资源之间的时间间隔小于最小时间间隔,条件三还可以衍生出以下条件:重新确定的第k-j个传输需求对应的资源与第k个传输需求 对应的资源之间的时间间隔小于j个最小时间间隔的总时长。
可选的,当上述至少一项条件满足时,可能会出现到达所述第k个传输需求的起始时间时所述第k个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束的情况,这就会导致所述第k个传输需求对应的资源不可用。为了提高所述第一终端设备能够使用第k个传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率,所述第一终端设备可以为重新确定所述第k个传输需求对应的资源,具体过程可以参考以上步骤F1-F2,此处不再赘述。
综上,本申请实施例提供了一种资源配置方法,通过该方法,第一终端设备可以根据N个传输需求对应的LBT时长,预约N个资源。由于考虑到LBT时长,可以减少出现到达某个传输需求对应的资源时该传输需求的LBT时长还未结束的情况,从而可以提高第一终端设备能够使用该传输需求对应的资源传输数据的概率,从而保证终端设备的通信效率。
基于图3所示的实施例提供的资源配置方法,本申请实施例还提供了以下实施一至实施例四。下面分别对每个实施例进行说明。
实施例一:
第一终端设备根据N个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定N个资源,参阅图4所示。其中,所述N个资源与所述N个传输需求一一对应,且当N为大于1的整数时,所述N个资源间要满足最小时间间隔的要求。在图4中,LBT时长1、LBT时长2、LBT时长3,分别为第1个传输需求对应的LBT时长、第2个传输需求对应的LBT时长,第3个传输需求对应的LBT时长;资源1,资源2,资源3,分别为第1个传输需求对应的资源,第2个传输需求对应的资源,第3个传输需求对应的资源。图4中的资源选择范围(原)为传统的不考虑LBT时长进行资源配置方案中的资源选择范围,具体可以参考上述第一点技术说明,或者参考图1所示的资源选择范围。
可选的,最小时间间隔可以为网络设备通过RRC信令配置的,或者通信标准规定的,本申请实施例对此不作限定。
可选的,第一终端设备可以在出现传输需求时(即t0),开始确定该N个资源。
可选的,第一终端设备可以通过以下方式,确定每个传输需求对应的LBT时长:
第一终端设备可以分别针对每个传输需求,生成对应的随机数;然后第一终端设备可以根据每个传输需求对应的随机数,分别确定每个传输需求对应的LBT时长。以第n个传输需求为例,第一终端设备生成的第n个传输需求对应的随机数记为Rn,那么第一终端设备可以根据第n个传输需求对应的随机数Rn,确定第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长。例如所述第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长等于tsensing*Rn,或者tsensing*Rn+defer时长。其中,n为正整数,且1≤n≤N,tsensing为感知时隙的时长。
第一终端设备可以分别根据每个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定该传输需求对应的资源,参阅图5所示。继续以第n个传输需求为例。第一终端设备可以根据第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间;然后根据第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源。在图5中,起始时间1、起始时间2、起始时间3,分别为第1个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间、第2个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间;资源选择范围1、资源选择范围2、资源选择范围3,分别为第1个传输需求的资源选择范围、第2个传输需求的资源选择范围、第3个传输需求的资源选择范围。
可选的,第一终端设备可以通过图3所示的实施例中步骤A1的方式1,确定第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,具体过程可以参考以上对该方式1的描述,此处不再赘述。因此,在图5中的T1、T2、T3分别符合该方式1中的关于Tn的公式。
示例性的,假设第一终端设备在t0时出现3个传输需求。那么第一终端设备针对每个传输需求生成对应的随机数。根据该随机数,以及感知时隙的时长,确定3个传输需求对应的LBT时长分别为1ms,4ms,7ms。那么,第一终端设备可以根据LBT时长从小到大或从大到小的顺序,分别为每个传输需求预约资源。
第一终端设备分别根据每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,确定每个传输需求对应的资源,具体过程可以参考图3所示的实施例的步骤A2中的方式一至方式三中任一方式,或者通过步骤A2中的实施方式一至实施方式四中任一实施方式实现。3个传输需求对应的资源如图4所示。在图4中,LBT时长1、LBT时长2、LBT时长3,分别为第1个传输需求对应的LBT时长、第2个传输需求对应的LBT时长,第3个传输需求对应的LBT时长;起始时间1、起始时间2、起始时间3,分别为第1个传 输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间、第2个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,第3个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间;资源1,资源2,资源3,分别为第1个传输需求对应的资源,第2个传输需求对应的资源,第3个传输需求对应的资源。
下面按照第一终端设备的PHY层和MAC层分步骤说明。
PHY层分别根据3个传输需求中每个传输需求对应的LBT时长,确定每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间。
在第一种实现方式中,PHY层向MAC层发送该3个传输需求中每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间;MAC层分别根据该3个传输需求中每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,确定每个传输需求的资源选择范围;MAC层分别在每个传输需求的资源选择范围内,确定每个传输需求对应的资源。
在第二种实现方式中,PHY层分别根据该3个传输需求中每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,确定每个传输需求的资源选择范围;PHY层向MAC层发送每个传输需求的资源选择范围;MAC层分别在每个传输需求的资源选择范围内,确定每个传输需求对应的资源。
可选的,第一种实现方式和第二种实现方式中,MAC层可以按照时域位置从后到前的顺序,先确定第3个传输需求对应的资源;然后在满足最小时间间隔的要求下确定第2个传输需求对应的资源;最后,在满足最小时间间隔的要求下确定第1个传输需求对应的资源。
可选的,MAC层可以按照资源选择范围从小到大的顺序,先确定资源选择范围最小的传输需求对应的资源;然后在满足最小时间间隔的要求下确定资源选择范围次小的传输需求对应的资源;直至确定资源选择范围最大的传输需求对应的资源后结束。
在第三种实现方式中,PHY层分别根据该3个传输需求中每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,确定每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间单元。PHY层向MAC层发送每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间单元以及候选资源集合(记为SA)。MAC层分别根据每个传输需求的资源选择范围起始时间单元,在资源候选集合SA中,确定每个传输需求对应的资源。
可选的,MAC层可以但不限于通过以下方式在SA中,确定每个传输需求对应的资源。
方式a:MAC层在SA中选择一种资源组合(3个资源),判断如果该资源组合不满足要求,则重新选择,直到选出满足要求的组合。其中,该要求为:第1个传输需求对应的资源(记为资源1)不早于第1个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间单元;第2个传输需求对应的资源(记为资源2)不早于第2个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间单元;第3个传输需求对应的资源(记为资源3)不早于第3个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间单元;且资源1和资源2之间保证最小时间间隔,且资源2和资源3之间保证最小时间间隔。上述3个传输需求的资源是按照时域位置的先后顺序排序的,即资源1早于资源2,资源2早于资源3。
方式b:MAC层按照时域位置从后到前的顺序依次选择3个资源,或者从时域范围最小的资源开始选择。如图6所示,MAC层可以在SA中选择不早于第3个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间单元的资源3;选出资源3之后,在满足最小时间间隔要求情况下,在SA中选择不早于第2个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间单元的资源2;最后,在满足最小时间间隔要求情况下,在SA中选择不早于第1个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间单元的资源1。
换句话说,MAC层根据确定的资源3的时域位置减去最小时间间隔,得到资源2的选择范围,该选择范围起始时间为第2个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间单元,结束时间为资源3的时域位置减去最小时间间隔的时域位置;并在该选择范围内在SA中选出资源2;然后继续根据上述方式得到资源1的选择范围内,并在该选择范围内选出资源1。
在第四种实现方式中,PHY层分别根据该3个传输需求中每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,确定每个传输需求的候选资源集合。其中,第1个传输需求的候选资源集合记为SA1,第2个传输需求的候选资源集合记为SA2,第3个传输需求的候选资源集合记为SA3。PHY层向MAC层发送每个传输需求的候选资源集合{SA1、SA2、SA3,}。MAC层分别在每个传输需求的候选资源集合中,确定每个传输需求对应的资源。
在本实现方式中,MAC层可以在SA1选出资源1,在SA2选出资源2,在SA3选出资源3,且资源1和资源2之间保证最小时间间隔,且资源2和资源3之间保证最小时间间隔。
换句话说,MAC层可以在SA3中选出资源3;在满足最小时间间隔的情况下,筛选SA2中满足与 资源3间隔至少保证最小时间间隔的候选资源,并在从SA2中筛选出的候选资源中选出资源2;继续在满足最小时间间隔的情况下,筛选SA1中满足与资源2间隔至少保证最小时间间隔的候选资源,并在从SA1中筛选出的候选资源中选出资源1。
实施例二:
第一终端设备在确定N个传输需求对应的资源过程中,分别根据每个传输需求对应的LBT时长,以及该传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源,确定该传输需求对应的资源,如图7所示。其中,任意两个资源间要满足最小时间间隔的要求。
可选的,第一终端设备可以在出现传输需求时(即t0),开始确定该N个资源。
其中,每个传输需求的资源选择范围可以根据该传输需求对应的LBT时长和该传输需求的在先传输需求占用的资源确定。该在先传输需求可以是和当前资源相同的传输块(transport block,TB),和/或其他TB的传输占用资源。示例性的,第3个传输需求的在先传输需求为第1个传输需求和第2个传输需求。
下面对实施二提供的原理进行说明:在资源1到达时,由于资源1对应的LBT时长未结束,第一终端设备因信道繁忙而未在资源1上传输;另一种可能是在资源1到达之前,资源1对应的LBT时长结束,第一终端设备在资源1上传输。在第二种可能中,由于资源1上有数据传输,因此信道繁忙,那么针对资源2的LBT的计数器因为信道被占用不会继续下降。综上,对于第一终端设备针对资源2和资源3进行LBT过程来说,资源1这部分时域资源都是信道繁忙状态,因此,终端设备在确定第2个传输需求和第3个传输需求的资源选择范围时,需要排除资源1占用的时域位置。同理,资源2占用的时域位置也会影响第3个传输需求的资源选择范围。
继续以第n个传输需求为例。基于上述原理,第一终端设备可以根据第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长,以及第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源,确定第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间;然后根据第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源。
可选的,第一终端设备可以通过图3所示的实施例中步骤A1的方式2,确定第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,具体过程可以参考以上对该方式2的描述,此处不再赘述。继续以3个传输需求为例,在图7中的T1、T2、T3分别符合该方式2中的关于Tn的公式。每个传输需求的资源选择范围可以如图8中所示。
另外,第一终端设备分别根据每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,确定每个传输需求对应的资源,具体过程可以参考图3所示的实施例的步骤A2中的方式一至方式三中任一方式,或者通过步骤A2中的实施方式一至实施方式四中任一实施方式实现。该过程还可以参考实施一中的描述,此处不再赘述。
实施例三:
在实施二的基础上,第一终端设备在确定N个传输需求对应的资源过程中,分别根据每个传输需求对应的LBT时长,以及该传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源,该传输需求的在先HARQ对应的资源,确定该传输需求对应的资源,如图9所示。其中,任意两个资源间要满足最小时间间隔的要求。
可选的,第一终端设备可以在出现传输需求时(即t0),开始确定该N个资源。
其中,每个传输需求的资源选择范围可以根据该传输需求对应的LBT时长,该传输需求的在先传输需求占用的资源,以及该传输需求的在先HARQ占用的资源确定。该在先传输需求可以是和当前资源相同的传输块(transport block,TB),和/或其他TB的传输占用资源。示例性的,第3个传输需求的在先传输需求为第1个传输需求和第2个传输需求。
每个传输需求的在先HARQ包括该传输需求的在先传输需求的应答响应,还可以包括至少一个第一传输的应答响应;其中,所述第一传输为第一终端设备监听到的未接收到应答响应的传输。如图9所示,第1个传输需求的在先HARQ可以包括其他终端设备的第一传输的HARQ,第2个传输需求的在先HARQ包括第1个传输需求的HARQ,以及其他终端设备的第一传输的HARQ。因此,所述第n个传输需求的在先应答响应包括第1个传输需求至第n-1个传输需求的应答响应,以及第一传输的应答响应。
继续以第n个传输需求为例。基于上述原理,第一终端设备可以根据第n个传输需求对应的LBT时 长,第n个传输需求的在先传输需求对应的资源,以及第n个传输需求的在先HARQ对应的资源,确定第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间;然后根据第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,确定所述第n个传输需求对应的资源。
可选的,第一终端设备可以通过图3所示的实施例中步骤A1的方式3,确定第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,具体过程可以参考以上对该方式3的描述,此处不再赘述。继续以3个传输需求为例,在图9中的T1、T2、T3分别符合该方式3中的关于Tn的公式。每个传输需求的资源选择范围可以如图10中所示。
如图10所示,第1个传输需求(对应资源1)的资源选择范围(即图10中的资源选择范围1)排除了LBT时长1和第1传输需求的在先HARQ占用(即第一传输的HARQ)的资源带来的额外时延,资源选择范围1的起始时间为起始时间1;第2个传输需求(对应资源2)的资源选择范围(即图10中的资源选择范围2)排除了LBT时长2、资源1占用的资源和资源1的HARQ占用的资源、第一传输的HARQ占用的资源带来的额外时延,资源选择范围2的起始时间为起始时间2;第3个传输需求(对应资源3)的资源选择范围(即图10中的资源选择范围3)排除了LBT时长3、资源1占用的资源和资源1的HARQ占用的资源、资源2占用的资源和资源2的HARQ占用的资源、第一传输的HARQ占用的资源带来的额外时延,资源选择范围3的起始时间为起始时间3。
另外,第一终端设备分别根据每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,确定每个传输需求对应的资源,具体过程可以参考图3所示的实施例的步骤A2中的方式一至方式三中任一方式,或者通过步骤A2中的实施方式一至实施方式四中任一实施方式实现。该过程还可以参考实施一中的描述,此处不再赘述。
实施例四:
在第一终端设备通过以上实施例一至实施例三确定N个资源后,第一终端设备可以在该N个资源上传输需求。在第一时间(即t1)确定第n个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束,或者确定第一时长小于第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长时,触发重新确定第n个传输需求对应的资源。其中,第一时间位于第n个传输需求对应的资源的起始时间之前,或第一时间为第n个传输需求对应的资源的起始时间;第一时长为第一时间t1与第n个传输需求对应的资源的起始时间之间的时长。
如图11所示,当在第1个传输需求对应的资源1到达之前第一终端设备或其他终端设备发生第一传输的情况下,由于第一传输占用信道,可能会导致在资源1的起始时间之前,第1个传输需求对应的LBT时长未结束。在本实施例四中,第一终端设备可以根据第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,重新确定第n个传输需求对应的资源,参阅图11所示。
可选的,第一终端设备可以根据第n个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长,重新确定第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,进而可以根据重新确定的第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,重新确定第n个传输需求对应的资源,参阅图12所示。
可选的,第一终端设备可以通过图3所示的实施例中步骤S2中记载的任一种方式,确定第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,具体过程可以参考以上对步骤S2的描述,此处不再赘述。因此,在图12中的T1′符合步骤S2中的关于Tn′的公式。
另外,第一终端设备根据重新确定的第n个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,重新确定第n个传输需求对应的资源,具体过程可以参考图3所示的实施例的步骤A2中的方式一至方式三中任一方式,或者通过步骤A2中的实施方式一至实施方式四中任一实施方式实现。该过程还可以参考实施一中的描述,此处不再赘述。
考虑到在终端设备确定多个资源后,其中某个资源重新确定后,可能会引发任意两个资源之间的时间间隔小于最小时间间隔的问题。因此,在一种实施方式中,当第一终端设备触发重新确定第n个传输需求对应资源后,还可以重新确定所述第n个传输需求的在后传输需求对应的资源。
参阅图13所示,可选的,当重选后的资源1与在后传输需求对应的资源2之间的时间间隔小于最小时间间隔时,第一终端设备可以触发资源2的重选。换句话说,当重选后的资源1与资源2之间的时间间隔仍满足最小时间间隔的要求时,资源2可以无需进行重选。
可选的,第一终端设备可以根据第1个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长(记为LBT剩余时长1),以 及重选后的资源1与资源2之间的时间间隔大于或等于最小时间间隔,重新确定第1个传输需求的资源选择范围1,并在重新确定的资源选择范围1中重新确定资源1。若考虑LBT剩余时长1,重选后的资源1与资源2之间的时间间隔大于或等于最小时间间隔,使得该重新确定的资源选择范围为空,即当前时刻加LBT剩余时长1与最小时间间隔之后得到的时刻晚于资源2的起始时间,那么此时,第一终端设备需要重新选择资源1和资源2。可选的,第一终端设备可以采用LBT剩余时长1(可选的,还可以包括第2个传输需求对应的LBT剩余时长(记为LBT剩余时长2)),重新确定资源1和资源2,以保证资源1和资源2之间满足最小时间间隔的要求。
可选的,第一终端设备在触发重新确定第n个传输需求对应的资源的情况下,第一终端设备(PHY层)还可以判断是否需要重新确定第n个传输需求的在后传输需求对应的资源,该判断条件可以参考图3所示的实施例中记载的条件一和条件二,此处不再赘述。
在本实施例中,第一终端设备重新确定第n个传输需求的在后传输需求对应的资源的过程可以参考图3所示的实施例中步骤F1-F2的描述,此处不再赘述。在图14中,T1′符合步骤S2中的关于Tn′的公式,T2′符合步骤S2中的关于Tn′的公式或符合步骤F1中关于Tk′的公式。
基于图3所示的实施例提供的资源配置方法,以及上述实施一至实施例四提供的方法,本申请还提供了一种资源配置方法。
在该方法中,第一终端设备可以在出现传输需求时(即t0),通过以上实施例中提供的方法,确定N个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间。若每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间均未超过第三时间(记为t3),那么第一终端设备可以继续根据该N个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,确定该N个传输需求对应的资源。其中,第一终端设备确定N个传输需求对应的资源的过程可以参考以上实施例中的相应描述,此处不再赘述。
其中,第三时间t3为从所述第一终端设备出现传输需求的时间t0开始经历第三时长后的时间,所述第三时长的取值是根据所述第一终端设备的数据传输时延确定的,所述第三时长可以记为TPDB。因此t3=t0+TPDB。示例性的,TPDB可以等于该数据传输时延,也可以小于该数据传输时延。
每个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间均未超过第三时间t3,这样,当第一终端设备在确定的N个资源上传输数据时,可以保证数据的时延在第一终端设备的数据传输时延范围内。
在一种实施方式中,当在N个传输需求中,存在资源选择范围的起始时间超过第三时间t3的至少一个传输需求时,第一终端设备可以终止上述实施例中的资源配置过程,选择其他资源配置方式。
下面以N个传输需求中的第g个传输需求为例进行说明。如图15所示,当第g个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间超过第三时间t3,所述第一终端设备可以但不限于通过以下资源配置方式,实现数据传输。其中,g为正整数,且1≤g≤N。图15中的起始时间g为第g个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间。
资源配置方式一:第一终端设备可以向第二终端设备发送第一资源请求;然后,接收来自所述第二终端设备的第一资源配置信息。其中,所述第一资源配置信息用于指示所述第二终端设备为所述第一终端设备分配的资源所述第一资源请求所占用的传输资源为所述第一终端设备与所述第二终端设备预先协商的或协议约定的。
示例性的,所述第一资源请求可以携带在短控制消息(short control message)中。通过该方式,第二终端设备可以在抢占COT后,将剩余COT共享给所述第一终端设备。
资源配置方式二:第一终端设备可以向网络设备发送第二资源请求;然后,接收来自所述网络设备的第二资源配置信息。其中,所述第二资源配置信息用于指示所述网络设备为所述第一终端设备分配的资源。
可选的,所述第二资源请求可以为调度请求(scheduling request,SR)或缓存状态报告(buffer status report,BSR)。通过该方式,网络设备可以在抢占COT后,将剩余COT共享给所述第一终端设备。
资源配置方式三:第一终端设备可以监听信道,在第二终端设备发送数据时,主动使用第二终端设备的剩余COT所在的资源发送数据。
其中,第二终端设备为第一终端设备的N个传输需求的接收端。
在另一种实施方式中,当在N个传输需求中,存在W个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间未超过第三时间,其余传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间超过第三时间,如图16所示。可选的,第一终 端设备可以继续根据该W个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间,确定该W个传输需求对应的资源。其中,第一终端设备确定W个传输需求对应的资源的过程可以参考以上实施例中的相应描述,此处不再赘述。其中W为小于N的正整数。
图16中的起始时间w为该W个传输需求中任一传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间;起始时间g为N个传输需求中除该W个传输需求以外的任一个传输需求的资源选择范围的起始时间。
在第一终端设备在该W个传输需求对应的资源上传输数据后,根据W个传输需求的应答响应所指示的传输结果,判断是否在第二终端设备或网络设备的剩余COT所在的资源上继续发送数据。当该W个传输需求的应答响应所指示的传输结果表示数据传输成功时,第一终端设备无需在寻求其他资源配置方式;而当W个传输需求的应答响应所指示的传输结果表示数据传输失败时,第一终端设备可以采用上述任一种资源配置方式继续传输数据。
还需要说明的是,上述图4-图16中的相同或相似的用语/参数之间可以相互参考,在相应描述时不再单独说明。
在通信领域,不同带宽的频带占用的RB个数不同,如表1所示。
表1不同带宽的频带占用的RB数量配置
常用的非授权频谱的带宽包括20MHz、40MHz、60MHz和80MHz。如表1所示,在SCS=30kHz时,上述带宽的频带占用的RB数量分别为51、106、162、217。显然,尽管40MHz的带宽是20MHz的带宽的两倍,但是40MHz占用的RB数量是106,超过20MHz的带宽占用的RB数量的两倍(即51*2的102)。因此,40MHz带宽的频带中的RB不能直接当成2个20MHz带宽的频带中的RB调用。
另外,在非授权频谱中,10MHz和20MHz的传输无需保护频带(guard band),而更大带宽的传输则需要提供保护带宽。目前标准中提供了一种不同带宽的频带中的保护频带设置方案,如表2所示。
表2
为了解决不同带宽的频带RB数量不对齐问题,本申请实施例提供了一种通信方法。通过该方法,通信设备可以实现两个不同带宽的频带之间的资源映射。该方法可以解决不同带宽下的RB编号对齐问题,方便实现在频域上的资源映射。该方法可以适用于SL-U场景。下面参阅图17所示的流程图,对申请实施例提供的方法进行说明。
S1701:终端设备在第一频带中选择第一资源。
S1702:所述终端设备在第二频带的第二资源上传输目标数据。
其中,所述第一频带的带宽大于所述第二频带的带宽,或者所述第一频带的带宽小于所述第二频带的带宽;所述第一资源的频域位置与所述第二资源的频域位置之间存在资源映射关系;所述资源映射关系用于将所述第一资源映射到所述第二资源。
可选的,在SL-U系统中,若终端设备为了传输目标数据在第一频带中预约第一资源,后续通过LBT抢占了第二频带的信道,那么此时,所述终端设备可以通过上述方法,将第一资源映射到第二频 带中得到第二资源,从而可以在抢占的信道中传输目标数据。
应注意,所述第一频带的频率范围与所述第二频带的频率范围之间存在交集。
在S1702之前,所述终端设备可以根据所述资源映射关系以及所述第一资源的频域位置,在所述第二频带中选择所述第二资源。
其中,所述第一资源包括第一RB,所述第二资源包括第二RB。所述第一资源的频域位置包括所述第一RB在所述第一频带中的RB编号;所述第二资源的频域位置包括所述第二RB在所述第二频带中的RB编号。所述资源映射关系用于表示所述第一频带中的RB编号与所述第二频带中的RB编号之间的映射关系。
在一种实施方式中,以第二频带的带宽大于第一频带的带宽为例,对该资源映射关系进行说明。所述第一频带中包括L1个RB,其中,L1为正整数;所述第一频带的带宽为B1,所述第二频带的带宽为B2,B2=X*B1,X>1。
可选的,当X为整数时,所述第二频带包含X个子频带,每个子频带的带宽为B1,所述第一频带位于所述X个子频带中第y个子频带中,1≤y≤X,y为整数。
在所述资源映射关系中,所述第一频带中RB编号a与所述第二频带中RB编号(y-1)*L1+C+a对应;其中,a为整数,0≤a<L1,C为常数;或者
在所述资源映射关系中,所述第一频带中RB编号L1-b与所述第二频带中RB编号y*L1+D-b对应;其中,b为整数,0<b≤L1,D为常数。
在另一种实施方式中,以第一频带的带宽大于第二频带的带宽为例,对该资源映射关系进行说明。所述第二频带中包括L2个RB,其中,L2为正整数;所述第一频带的带宽为B1,所述第二频带的带宽为B2,B1=X*B2,X>1。
可选的,当X为整数时,所述第一频带包含X个子频带,每个子频带的带宽为B2,所述第二频带位于所述X个子频带中第y个子频带中,1≤y≤X,y为整数。
在所述资源映射关系中,所述第二频带中RB编号a与所述第一频带中RB编号(y-1)*L2+C+a对应;其中,a为整数,0≤a<L2,C为常数;或者
在所述资源映射关系中,所述第二频带中RB编号L2-b与所述第一频带中RB编号y*L2+D-b对应;其中,b为整数,0<b≤L2,D为常数。
需要说明的是,在上述两个实施方式中,C和D的取值与第一频带的带宽、第二频带的带宽有关。通过表1和表2可知,不同带宽的频带中包含的RB的数量,以及保护频带的分布是固定的,因此,针对两个固定带宽的频带,上述资源映射关系也是确定的,C和D的具体取值与该两个频带包含的RB数量,以及保护频带的分布有关。
在本申请实施例中,为了传输目标数据,终端设备还可以执行以下步骤:
P1:根据所述第一资源的频域位置在所述第一频带对应的多个第一子信道中确定第一目标子信道;
P2:根据所述第二资源的频域位置在所述第二频带对应的多个第二子信道中确定第二目标子信道;
P3:当所述第二目标子信道占用的RB数量大于所述第一目标子信道占用的RB数量时,根据所述第二目标子信道占用的RB数量对编码后的信号进行速率匹配,得到目标信号;或者当所述第二目标子信道占用的RB数量小于所述第一目标子信道占用的RB数量时,根据所述第二目标子信道占用的RB数量对编码后的信号进行打孔,得到目标信号;
其中,所述编码后的信号是根据所述第一目标子信道占用的RB数量对所述目标数据编码得到的。
通过上述步骤,终端设备还可以实现不同频带对应的子信道的映射。
基于终端设备通过上述P1-P3得到的目标数据,所述终端设备可以在所述第二目标子信道上发送所述目标信号,从而实现所述目标数据的传输。
此外,通过上述资源映射关系,终端设备还可以在选择资源时将其他终端设备选择的资源映射到该终端设备接入的频带内,从而可以避免选择该资源,避免该终端设备与其他终端设备的传输相互干扰。
例如,在SL-U系统中,第一终端设备采用20MHz带宽的第一频带接入并预约了RB 0~9的10个RB。在第二终端设备采用40MHz带宽的第二频带接入并选择资源时,可以通过该第一频带与第二频带 之间的资源映射关系,在第二频带占用的RB中确定第一终端设备选择的RB编号,并避免选择这些RB编号的RB。
下面以SCS=30kHz,对20MHz带宽的频带、40MHz带宽的频带、60MHz带宽的频带,以及80MHz带宽的频带之间资源映射关系进行示例性的说明。参阅图18为在80MHz的频带内,4个20MHz的频带、2个40MHz的频带,两种60MHz的频带的分布示意图。
例1:在每个20MHz的频带内,按照频率从低到高,将51个RB从0到50编号。每个40MHz的频带内,按照频率从低到高,将106个RB从0到105编号。
40MHz的频带5中的106个RB与20MHz的频带1中的51个RB、20MHz的频带2中的51个RB之间的资源映射关系如下:
频带5中的RB0与频带1中的RB0对应(即最低编号的RB对齐);频带5中的RB1与频带1中的RB1对应;依次类推,直到频带5中的RB50与频带1中的RB50对应;
频带5中RB50之后的4个RB(RB51-RB54)不存在对应关系;
频带5中的RB55与频带2中的RB0对应;频带5中的RB56与频带2中的RB1对应;依次类推,直到频带5中的RB105与频带2中的RB50对应(即最高编号的RB对齐)。
例2:在每个20MHz的频带内,按照频率从低到高,将51个RB从0到50编号。每个60MHz的频带内,按照频率从低到高,将162个RB从0到161编号。
频带7中的RB与频带1中的RB、频带2中的RB、频带3中的RB之间的资源映射关系类似,即:
频带7中的RB0与频带1中的RB0对应(即最低编号的RB对齐);频带7中的RB1与频带1中的RB1对应;依次类推,直到频带7中的RB50与频带1中的RB50对应;
频带7中RB50之后的4个RB(RB51-RB54)不存在对应关系;
频带7中的RB55与频带2中的RB0对应;频带7中的RB56与频带2中的RB1对应;依次类推,直到频带7中的RB105与频带1中的RB50对应;
频带7中RB105之后的5个RB(RB106-RB110)不存在对应关系;
频带7中的RB111与频带3中的RB0对应;频带7中的RB112与频带3中的RB1对应;依次类推,直到频带7中的RB161与频带3中的RB50对应(即最高编号的RB对齐)。
例3:在每个20MHz的频带内,按照频率从低到高,将51个RB从0到50编号。80MHz的频带内,按照频率从低到高,将217个RB从0到216编号。
频带9中的RB与频带1中的RB、频带2中的RB、频带3中的RB、频带4中的RB之间的资源映射关系类似,即:
频带9中的RB0与频带1中的RB0对应(即最低编号的RB对齐);频带9中的RB1与频带1中的RB1对应;依次类推,直到频带9中的RB50与频带1中的RB50对应;
频带9中RB50之后的4个RB(RB51-RB54)不存在对应关系;
频带9中的RB55与频带2中的RB0对应;频带9中的RB56与频带2中的RB1对应;依次类推,直到频带5中的RB105与频带1中的RB50对应;
频带9中RB105之后的5个RB(RB106-RB110)不存在对应关系;
频带9中的RB111与频带3中的RB0对应;频带9中的RB112与频带3中的RB1对应;依次类推,直到频带9中的RB161与频带3中的RB50对应;
频带9中RB161之后的4个RB(RB162-RB164)不存在对应关系;
频带9中的RB165与频带4中的RB0对应;频带9中的RB166与频带4中的RB1对应;依次类推,直到频带9中的RB216与频带4中的RB50对应(即最高编号的RB对齐)。
还需要说明的是,在图18所示的频带1至频带9中,不同频带中的RB之间的资源映射关系均可以参考以上示例。
应注意,以上例1-例3作为示例,并不对本申请实施例提供的资源映射关系构成任何限定。另外,上述示例也不对带宽较大的频带中某处不存在对应关系连续多个RB的个数进行限定。例如在第一资源映射关系中,频带9中的RB0-RB50与频带1中的RB0-RB50对应后,频带9中RB50之后的1个RB、 2个RB、3个RB、4个RB、5个RB,或6个RB不存在对应关系;从频带9的RB52、RB53、RB54、RB55、RB56,或RB57开始,继续与频带2中的RB对应;类似的,在频带9中连续51个RB与频带2中的51个RB一一对应之后,频带9中与频带2的RB50对应的RB之后的1个RB、2个RB、3个RB、4个RB、5个RB,或6个RB不存在对应关系。
另外,终端设备在根据资源映射关系进行资源映射后,还需要将传输的对应关系也需要映射。例如以频带中10个RB作为一个子信道为例,那么20MHz频带中的51个RB可以构成5个子信道,分别占用RB0~RB9,RB10~RB19,RB20~RB29,RB30~RB39,以及RB40~RB50。上述20MHz频带包含资源可以对应于40MHz/60MHz/80MHz频带中的以下5个子信道:占用RB0~RB9,RB10~RB19,RB20~RB29,RB30~RB39,RB40~RB55或RB50~RB53(某个子信道占用的RB数量可以大于11)。
显然,由于40Mhz频带中的RB数量大于2个20Mhz频带包含的RB数量之和,因此,40Mhz频带中的第5个子信道与20Mhz频带中的第5个子信道占用的RB数量不同。因此,终端设备在对40Mhz频带中的第5个子信道与20Mhz频带中的第5个子信道之间进行映射时,需要考虑RB数量不同引起的问题。
实例1:以将20MHz频带的第5个子信道(后续简称为第一子信道)映射到40MHz频带的第5个子信道(后续简称为第二子信道)为例进行说明。终端设备根据第一子信道占用的RB数量对待传输目标数据进行编码,得到编码信号。由于第二子信道占用的RB数量大于第一子信道占用的RB数量,终端设备占用的更多的资源传输,因此需要根据第二子信道占用的RB数量对该编码信号进行速率匹配,得到目标信号。最后终端设备在第二子信道上发送该目标信号。
实例2:以将80MHz频带的第5个子信道(后续简称为第一子信道)映射到20MHz频带的第5个子信道(后续简称为第二子信道)为例进行说明。第一子信道占用的RB数量可以是14、16,或者其他大于11的数。而第二子信道占用的RB数量为11。终端设备根据第一子信道占用的RB数量对待传输目标数据进行编码,得到编码信号。由于第二子信道占用的RB数量小于第一子信道占用的RB数量,因此需要终端设备根据第二子信道占用的RB数量对该编码信号进行打孔,丢弃部分信号得到目标信号。最后终端设备在第二子信道上发送该目标信号。
