可选的,终端设备101、终端设备102和终端设备103可以通过接口连接。接入网设备104与AMF105之间可以通过接口连接,AMF105与LMF106可以通过接口连接。
例如,终端设备101与终端设备102之间可以通过PC5接口连接。终端设备101与终端设备103可以通过PC5接口连接,终端设备101与终端设备103可以通过PC5接口连接。终端设备101和终端设备102分别通过NR-Uu接口与接入网设备104连接,接入网设备104与AMF105之间通过NG-C接口连接。AMF105与LMF106之间通过NL1接口连接。NR-Uu接口是终端设备与接入网设备之间的通信接口。NG-C接口是接入网与核心网之间的控制面接口。NL1接口是AMF与LMF之间的通信接口。

终端设备,又称之为用户设备(user equipment,UE)、移动台(mobile station,MS)、移动终端(mobile terminal,MT)等。终端设备是包括无线通信功能(向用户提供语音/数据连通性)的设备。例如,具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、车载设备、机器类型通信(machine type communication,MTC)终端等。目前,终端设备可以包括: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)、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(例如,无人机、车辆)、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、或智慧家庭(smart home)中的无线终端等。
接入网设备104是一种部署在无线接入网中为终端设备提供无线通信功能的装置。接入网设备可以将终端设备接入到无线网络的无线接入网(radio access network,RAN)节点。
接入网设备包括但不限于: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)、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)、基带单元(baseband unit,BBU),无线保真(wireless fidelity,WIFI)系统中的接入点(access point,AP)、无线中继节点、无线回传节点、传输点(transmission point,TP)或者发送接收点(transmission and reception point,TRP)等,还可以为5G移动通信系统中的网络设备。例如,NR系统中的下一代基站(next generation NodeB,gNB),传输接收点(transmission reception point,TRP),传输点(transmission point,TP);或者,5G移动通信系统中的基站的一个或一组(包括多个天线面板)天线面板;或者,接入网设备还可以为构成gNB或传输点的网络节点。例如,基带单元(baseband unit,BBU),或,分布式单元(distributed unit,DU)等。
在一些部署中,gNB可以包括集中式单元(centralized unit,CU)和DU。gNB还可以包括有源天线单元(active antenna unit,AAU)。CU实现gNB的部分功能,DU实现gNB的部分功能。
例如,CU负责处理非实时协议和服务,实现无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)层以及分组数据汇聚层协议(packet data convergence protocol,PDCP)层的功能。DU负责处理物理层协议和实时服务,实现无线链路控制(radio link control,RLC)层、媒体接入控制(media access control,MAC)层和物理(physical,PHY)层的功能。AAU实现部分物理层处理功能、射频处理及有源天线的相关功能。RRC层的信息最终会变成PHY层的信息,或者,由PHY层的信息转变而来。因此在该架构下,高层信令(如RRC层信令)也可以认为是由DU发送的,或者,由DU和AAU发送的。
可以理解的是,接入网设备可以为包括CU节点、DU节点、AAU节点中一个或多个的设备。此外,可以将CU划分为接入网(radio access network,RAN)中的网络设备,也可以将CU划分为核心网(core network,CN)中的网络设备,本申请对此不做限定。

下面介绍本申请涉及的一些技术术语。
应用标识(application ID):用于标识一个特定的应用。
基于邻近服务应用标识(proximity based servicesapplication identity,ProSe application ID):在开放基于邻近服务直接发现流程中,标识能够支持5G基于邻近服务(5G ProSe)要求和流程的终端 设备的应用层相关信息。通常用于侧行链路上的通信传输。
基于邻近服务服务应用码(ProSe application code):与基于邻近服务应用标识关联,用于开放基于邻近服务直接发现(open ProSe direct discovery)流程。由终端设备通过第四代移动通信基于邻近服务功能(4G ProSe funciton)或第五代移动通信直接发现名称管理(5th generation direct discovery name management function,5G DDNMF)发送基于邻近服务发现用户设备标识(Prose discovery UE ID,PDUID)申请获得。
基于邻近服务受限码(ProSe restricted code):用于受限基于邻近服务直接发现流程,由终端设备向4G基于邻近服务功能或5G DDNMF发送受限基于邻近服务应用用户设备标识(restricted ProSe application UE ID,RPAUID),以获取基于邻近服务受限码。
基于邻近服务发现用户设备标识(Prose discovery UE ID,PDUID):是用户设备服务鉴权信息的一部分,可用于向基于邻近服务应用服务器(ProSe applicationserver)申请PDUID。
受限基于邻近服务应用用户设备标识(restrictedProSe application UE ID,RPAUID):是基于邻近服务应用服务器(ProSe application server)为一个受限基于邻近服务应用的用户标识生成的临时标识,用于保护应用层的用户标识。
层2标识(layer-2 ID):用于终端设备之间进行侧行链路通信和/或V2X通信。层2标识包括源层2标识(source layer-2 ID)和目标层2标识(destination layer-2 ID)。
源层2标识:用于标识侧行链路通信的发送方。源层2标识的长度为24比特,在媒体接入控制(media access control,MAC)层被分割为两个比特流。第一个比特流是源层2标识的最低有效位(least significant bit,LSB)部分,该LSB部分发送至物理层,该LSB部分用于标识侧行链路控制信息中预期数据的来源,用于接收端的物理层包过滤。该LSB部分的长度为8比特。第二个比特流是源层2标识的最高有效位(most significant bit,MSB)部分,该MSB部分的长度为16比特,该MSB部分携带在MAC头中,用于接收端的MAC层包过滤。
目标层2标识:用于标识侧行链路通信中的目标数据。对于侧行链路通信,目标层2标识的长度为24比特,并且在MAC层被分割为两个比特流。第一个比特流是目标层2标识的LSB部分,该LSB部分的长度为16比特,该LSB部分发送至物理层。第二个比特流是目标层2标识的MSB部分,该MSB部分的长度为8比特,该MSB部分携带在MAC头中,用于MAC层包过滤。
可选的,上述示出的标识可以是高层配置的。
5G基于邻近服务直接发现(5G ProSe direct discovery)是V2X通信系统中,终端设备发现临近终端设备的技术。5G基于邻近服务直接发现流程有两种类型,分别为开放发现(open discovery)和受限发现(restricted discovery)。5G基于邻近服务直接发现流程有两种模型,分别为模型A(mode A)和模型B(mode B)。其中,模型B只支持受限发现。5G基于邻近服务直接发现流程可以简称为发现流程。
下面介绍5G基于邻近服务发现流程中的模型A。
在模型A中,终端设备被分为发送UE(announcing UE)和监测UE(monitoring UE)。具体原理是:5G DDNMF分别给两个终端设备分配基于邻近服务应用码(ProSe application code)和发现过滤器(discovery filters)。如果是受限发现流程,则5G DDNMF分别给两个终端设备分配的是基于邻近服务受限应用码。发送UE发送通知消息(announcement message),通知消息中包含了消息的类型(指示该消息为通知消息)、基于邻近服务应用码、以及安全保护单元等。监测UE接收来自该发送UE的通知消息。如果监测UE监测到与该监测UE的发现过滤器匹配的基于邻近服务应用码,则表示监测UE发现了该发送UE。
通知消息的发送依赖于两个标识,分别为源层2标识和目标层2标识。这两个标识能够指示一条侧行链路。源层2标识一般是由终端设备自主选择的,用于发送通知消息。目标层2标识一般是由邻近通信5发现(ProSe communication 5 discovery,PC5-D)协议层给终端设备配置的。该目标层2标识是由基于邻近服务身份(ProSe identities)映射得到的。在版本16(release 16,R16)版本中,用于发现流程的标识通常是应用标识。
下面介绍5G基于邻近服务发现流程中的模型B。
模型B的基本原理与模型A相同。模型B中,终端设备被分为发现UE(discoverer UE)和被发现UE(discoveree UE)。发现UE发送请求(solicitation)消息,该请求消息包含发现消息的类型、基于邻近服务查询码(ProSe query code)、安全保护单元等。基于邻近服务查询码是5G DDNMF分配的,同时被发现UE也会被分配相应的发现过滤器(discovery filters)。
若被发现UE检测到该请求消息,被发现UE可以向发现UE返回响应消息。该响应消息包含发现消息的类型、基于邻近服务查询码、安全保护单元、元数据(metadata)消息等。发现UE接收到该响应消息后,则该被发现UE被发现。也就是发现UE与被发现UE实现互相发现。
由此可知,终端设备之间可以通过PC5接口连接,并通过侧行链路(sidelink,SL)通信。例如,终端设备1通过侧行链路向终端设备2发送信号。然而,如何触发侧行链路上的两个终端设备之间做定位测量和/或测距,是值得考虑的问题。
目前,在NR定位中,定位管理设备可以通过长期演进定位协议(long term evolution positioning protocol,LPP)消息请求目标终端设备上报定位信息。在该请求中可包含要求上报的消息类型、上报周期、测量量等。目标终端设备在接收到该请求后,可以根据该请求执行定位测量,并通过LPP消息向定位管理设备上报相应的测量结果。在NR定位过程中,定位管理设备根据目标终端设备的SUPI来识别目标终端设备。
而在侧行链路通信流程中,常用的终端设备标识为层2标识、应用层标识。因此,如果将上述基于侧行链路通信流程、NR定位流程用于侧行链路定位,则存在NR定位流程采用的终端设备的标识(例如,终端设备的SUPI)与侧行链路通信流程采用的终端设备的标识(例如,层2标识、或应用层标识)不统一的问题。侧行链路通信流程可以包括发现流程、或、定位和/或测距流程等,具体本申请不做限定。下面介绍两种可能的场景。
场景一:定位管理设备可以通过LPP消息请求第二终端设备与第一终端设备进行侧行链路定位。通常,定位管理设备不会将第一终端设备的SUPI给第二终端设备。另一方面,即使定位管理设备向第二终端设备发送该第一终端设备的SUPI。第二终端设备也无法识别该第一终端设备的SUPI。因此,导致第二终端设备采用第一终端设备的SUPI无法识别第一终端设备。因此LMF无法提供合适的第一终端设备的标识,使得第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间无法配对以建立侧行链路。进而导致第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间无法进行侧行链路定位和/或测距。
本申请提供了相应的技术方案,用于定位管理设备触发第二终端设备与第一终端设备之间执行侧行链路定位和/或测距,实现第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的定位测量和/或测距。具体可以参阅后文图2至图4所示的实施例以及步骤2001至步骤2007所示的实施例的相关介绍。
场景二:第二终端设备通过移动发起的定位请求(mobile originated location request,MO-LR)向定位管理设备发起请求,以请求对第一终端设备和/或第二终端设备进行定位测量。该请求中包括第一终端设备的标识。例如,该第一终端设备的标识可以是基于邻近服务直接发现流程采用的标识,或侧行链路通信传输采用的标识。例如,层2标识、应用层标识等。而定位管理设备无法识别该请求携带的标识,导致定位管理设备无法对第一终端设备和/或第二终端设备进行定位测量。
本申请提供了相应的技术方案,用于定位管理设备识别第二终端设备,实现定位管理设备对第一终端设备和/或第二终端设备进行定位测量。具体可以参阅后文图5和图6所示的实施例的相关介绍。
需要说明的是,本申请中,“发现”可以等同于“识别”、“匹配”或“配对”。本申请中,主要是以发现流程为示例介绍了应用层标识。实际应用中,其他侧行链路相关的应用层标识本申请均适用,具体本申请不做限定。
下面结合具体实施例介绍本申请的技术方案。
图2为本申请实施例侧行链路通信方法的一个实施例示意图。请参阅图2,侧行链路通信方法包括:
201、定位管理设备确定第一终端设备的标识信息。
该第一终端设备的标识信息用于第一终端设备所在的侧行链路上的终端设备发现该第一终端设备。其中,第一终端设备所在的侧行链路上的终端设备可以理解为除第一终端设备之外的其他终端设备。例 如,该第一终端设备的标识信息用于第二终端设备发现第一终端设备。
可选的,第一终端设备的标识信息包括第一终端设备的层2标识,或第一终端设备的应用层标识。
其中,层2标识包括以下至少一项:源层2标识、或目标层2标识。关于源层2标识和目标层2标识请参阅前文相关介绍。
应用层标识包括以下至少一项:基于邻近服务应用层标识、车到万物应用层标识、用于基于邻近服务发现流程的标识、或测距应用层标识。
需要说明的是,上述仅仅示出了应用层标识的一些示例,实际应用中,其他侧行链路相关的应用层标识本申请均适用,具体本申请不做限定。
可选的,用于基于邻近服务发现流程的标识,包括以下至少一项:基于邻近服务应用标识,应用标识,用户信息标识,受限基于邻近服务应用用户设备标识,或基于邻近服务发现用户设备标识。关于这些标识请参阅前文术语中的相关介绍。
例如,在基于邻近服务直接发现流程中,终端设备可以使用基于邻近服务应用标识、或受限基于邻近服务应用用户设备标识向5G基于邻近服务功能或5G直接发现名称管理网元申请用于发现流程的基于邻近服务应用码或基于邻近服务应用受限码。因此,第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间可以通过第一终端设备的应用层标识实现第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的发现。本实施例中,第一终端设备的应用层标识用于第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的发现。因此,本申请的技术方案中,定位管理设备可以向第二终端设备发送第一终端设备的应用层标识。然后,第二终端设备可以采用第一终端设备的应用层标识实现第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的发现。然后,第一终端设备与第二终端设备进行侧行链路定位和/或测距。
例如,该第一终端设备的标识信息包括第一终端设备的源层2标识。一般情况下,源层2标识是第一终端设备自行选择的。本实施例中,源层2标识用于第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的发现。因此,本申请的技术方案中,定位管理设备可以向第二终端设备发送第一终端设备的源层2标识。然后,第二终端设备可以采用第一终端设备的源层2标识实现第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的发现。然后,第一终端设备与第二终端设备进行侧行链路定位和/或测距。
可选的,该第一终端设备的源层2标识或应用层标识是定位业务绑定或关联的标识。该第一终端设备的源层2标识或应用层标识在一次或多次定位业务中可以唯一标识该第一终端设备。
可选的,第一终端设备的标识信息还包括以下至少一项:第一终端设备的用户信息、第一终端设备的源层2标识或应用层标识的有效时间、更新周期。
上述步骤201中,定位管理设备获取第一终端设备的标识信息的方式有多种,本申请不做限定。具体可以参阅后文图3至图4所示的实施例介绍的两种可能的实现方式,这里不做详细介绍。
202、定位管理设备向第二终端设备发送第三请求。第三请求包括第一终端设备的标识信息。相应的,第二终端设备接收来自定位管理设备的第三请求。

定位管理设备还可以从其他网元接收该第一终端设备的第二类型标识,所述网元可以为网关设备,如网关移动定位中心(gateway mobile location centre,GMLC)等。
604、定位管理设备根据第一终端设备的第二类型标识识别第一终端设备。
在该实现方式中,当第二终端设备有定位需求时,第二终端设备与第一终端设备之间的侧行链路不适合进行侧行链路定位。例如,第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间的传输路径为非视距径,不利于第一终端设备与第二终端设备进行侧行链路定位,影响第一终端设备与第二终端设备之间进行侧行链路定位的精度。第二终端设备可以向定位管理设备请求对第一终端设备和/或第二终端设备进行定位测量和/或测距。第一请求包括该第一终端设备的第一类型标识。定位管理设备可以基于该第一终端设备的第一类型标识向基于邻近服务功能网元、5G DDNMF、基于邻近服务功能服务器、或V2X应用服务器请求第一终端设备的第二类型标识。这样定位管理设备可以基于该第一终端设备的第二类型标识识别该第一终端设备。这样定位管理设备在后续发起侧行链路定位请求时,可以使用和识别该第一终端设备的第一类型标识。或者,定位管理设备可以采用NR定位流程对第一终端设备和/或第二终端设备分别进行定位测量。例如,定位管理设备可以选择第三终端设备,并指示第三终端设备分别与第一终端设备和第二终端设备之间进行侧行链路定位和/或测距。第三终端设备可以将侧行链路定位和/或测距得到的测量结果发送给第一终端设备、第二终端设备和/或定位管理设备。
本申请实施例中,定位管理设备接收来自第二终端设备的第一请求,第一请求用于请求对第一终端设备和/或第二终端设备进行定位测量和/或测距。第一请求包括第一终端设备的第一类型标识,第一类型标识是第二终端设备基于侧行链路获取到的。然后,定位管理设备向基于邻近服务功能、5G DDNMF、基于邻近服务功能服务器或V2X应用服务器发送第二请求,第二请求用于请求第一终端设备的第一类型标识。第二请求包括所述第一终端设备的第一类型标识。定位管理设备接收来自基于邻近服务功能、5G DDNMF、基于邻近服务功能服务器或V2X应用服务器发送的第一终端设备的第二类型标识;定位管理设备根据第一终端设备的第二类型标识识别第一终端设备。从而便于定位管理设备为第一终端设备和/或第二终端设备进行定位测量和/或测距。
