技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种通信方法和通信装置。
背景技术
车联网(vehicle to everything,V2X)系统支持多载波传输。一般地,在传输之前,发送端需要先选择候选载波,然后再从候选载波中选择合适的载波进行传输。具体地,发送端首先通过测量根据待发送业务确定的可用载波列表中的载波的信道忙碌率(channel busy ratio,CBR),将可用载波列表中载波的CBR低于对应的CBR阈值的载波作为候选载波,再根据候选载波的CBR选择载波传输待传输业务。
在新无线(new radio,NR)V2X中,侧行链路(sidelink,SL)传输不仅有广播业务还有单播和组播业务,其中单播和组播业务需要保证对端的通信质量。那么,如果发送端选择的候选载波不适用于接收端,可能导致接收端接收失败。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行描述。

本申请实施例中的网络设备,是指将终端设备接入到无线网络的无线接入网(radio access network,RAN)节点(或设备),又可以称为基站。例如,该网络设备可以是演进型基站(evolved NodeB,eNodeB)、发送接收点(transmission reception point,TRP)、5G移动通信系统中的下一代基站(next generation NodeB,gNB)、未来移动通信系统中的基站或WiFi系统中的接入节点(access point,AP)、云无线接入网络(cloud radio access network,CRAN)场景下的无线控制器、中继站、接入点、车载设备、可穿戴设备、未来演进的其他通信系统中的网络设备等。又如,该网络设备也可以是完成基站部分功能的模块或单元,例如,可以是集中式单元(central unit,CU)或者分布式单元(distributed unit,DU)。本申请对网络设备所采用的具体技术和具体设备形态不做限定。

图1示出了适用于本申请的一种通信系统的示意性框图。参见图1,该系统100中包括两种通信接口,即PC5接口和Uu接口。其中,PC5接口是两个终端设备(例如图中所示终端设备110和终端设备120)之间的直连通信接口。终端设备之间的直连通信链路也被定义为侧行链路或侧 链(sidelink,SL)。Uu接口是终端设备(例如,终端设备110或终端设备120)与网络设备130之间通信的接口。
应理解,图1所示的通信系统中还可以包括更多的网络节点,例如更多的终端设备或网络设备,本申请实施例在图中不再一一示出。
载波的CBR在一定程度上可以反映载波对应的信道或子信道或资源被占用的比率,当CBR低于一定阈值时,认为载波对应的信道或子信道或资源被附近较少的用户所使用。那么,通过该载波传输数据时,干扰较小,从而可以保证SL资源传输的有效性。
以图1所示的系统为例,终端设备110可以通过与终端设备120之间的侧行链路向终端设备120传输数据。在传输数据前,终端设备110首先需要通过测量载波的CBR,确定候选载波,然后再根据候选载波的CBR选择合适的载波传输数据。
具体地,参见图2,终端设备的上层在向接入层发送时,将业务数据的优先级和对应可用的载波列表告知终端设备。结合载波在不同优先级下的CBR载波选择阈值以及CBR载波保留阈值,终端设备可以获知所发送业务数据可用的载波列表,以及载波列表中每个载波对应的CBR阈值。如图2所示,业务数据可用的载波列表为{F1、F2、F3}。由于终端设备所发送的业务数据的优先级为PPPP1,对应的F1、F2和F3的CBR载波选择阈值分别为0.6、0.5和0.6。进一步地,终端设备测量得到的载波F1、F2和F3的CBR值分别为0.7、0.4和0.3。只有载波F2和F3低于对应的CBR载波选择阈值,因此F2和F3为候选载波。
上述方案可以应用于SL广播业务中。在NR V2X中,SL传输不仅有广播业务还有单播和组播业务,其中单播和组播业务需要保证对端的通信质量。那么,如果终端设备110选择的候选载波不适用于终端设备120,可能导致终端设备120接收失败。
有鉴于此,本申请提供了一种通信方法,通过结合基于侧行链路通信的两个终端设备对载波的CBR的测量结果,选择候选载波,能够尽可能保证所选择的候选载波对这两个终端设备都适用,从而有利于保证正常的侧行链路通信。
在对本申请提供的方法进行描述之前,首先进行几点说明。
1、本申请中涉及的载波(上)“没有侧行链路授权”是指,该载波上没有预留资源。相应地,载波上“有侧行链路授权”是指,该载波上有预留资源。
2、本申请中涉及的“触发了载波选择”的载波是指,该载波上预留的资源的位置不满足数据的延迟需求;或者,该载波上预留的资源不能够容纳所有待传输数据。
相应地,“没有触发载波选择”的载波是指,该载波上预留的资源的位置满足数据的延迟需求;或者,该载波上预留的资源能够容纳所有待传输数据。
3、本申请中涉及的触发了载波选择的载波,也可以替换为触发了载波重选的载波。相应地,没有触发载波选择的载波,也可以替换为没有触发载波重选的载波。
下面结合相应流程图,对本申请提供的方案进行详细说明。可以理解,本申请提供的示意性流程图中主要以不同终端设备作为该交互示意的执行主体为例来示意该方法,但本申请并不限制交互示意的执行主体。例如,示意性流程图中的终端设备(比如,第一终端设备或第二终端设备)也可以是支持该终端设备实现该方法的芯片、芯片系统、或处理器,还可以是能实现全部或部分终端设备功能的逻辑模块或软件。
需要说明的是,在下文描述的方法中,第一终端设备(比如,终端设备110)为数据的发送方,第二终端设备(比如,终端设备120)为数据的接收方。
图3本申请提供的一种通信方法的示意性流程图。该方法200可以包括S210至S230。下面对各个步骤进行详细描述。
S210,第二终端设备确定第一测量结果。
S220,第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送第一测量结果。相应地,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第一测量结果。
其中,第一测量结果包括第二终端设备测量得到的第一载波列表中每个载波的CBR。
具体地,第二终端设备可以测量第一载波列表中每个载波的CBR,并且,第二终端设备可以将测量得到的第一载波列表中每个载波的CBR反馈给第一终端设备。
在一个示例中,第一载波列表可以是第二终端设备上层配置的载波列表、网络能够支持的载波列表、第二终端设备能够支持的载波列表、或者前述任意两种或三种的交集。
比如,如果第二终端设备上层配置的载波列表中的载波满足:该载波为网络能够支持且第二终端设备能够支持的载波,那么,第一载波列表可以是第二终端设备上层配置的载波列表。
比如,第二终端设备能够支持的载波列表中的载波满足:该载波为第二终端设备上层配置的载波且该载波为网络能够支持的载波,那么第一载波列表可以是第二终端设备能够支持的载波列表。
比如,第二终端设备上层配置的载波列表、网络能够支持的载波列表、第二终端设备能够支持的载波列表,这三个载波列表是独立的,那么,第一载波列表可以是这三个载波列表的交集。例如,第二终端设备上层配置的载波列表、网络能够支持的载波列表、第二终端设备能够支持的载波列表分别为{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},{1,3,4,6,7,8,9},{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,9},那么第一载波列表可以是{1,3,4,6,7,9}。
示例性的,第二终端设备上层配置的载波列表可以指:第二终端设备上层配置的与业务数据类型相关的载波列表。应理解,这里的业务数据是指第一终端设备即将向第二终端设备发送的数据,即第一终端设备的待传输或待发送数据。
示例性的,网络能够支持载波列表可以指:网络设备在给第二终端设备发送的配置消息中告知第二终端设备网络可以支持的载波列表或者来自于预配置信息中的载波列表。
示例性的,第一载波列表可以是预配置的,也可以是网络设备为第二终端设备配置的。
比如,第一载波列表可以包含在SL预配置消息(例如,SL-PreconfigurationNR)中。进一步地,第一载波列表可以是sl-FreqInfoToAddModList。

或者,条件4为第一终端设备测量得到的该载波的CBR和第二终端设备测量得到的该载波的CBR的均值低于该载波对应的第一CBR载波保留阈值或该载波对应的第二CBR载波保留阈值。
比如,第一载波列表为{1,2,3,5,7,9},若载波#1和载波#4触发了载波选择,且载波#1满足条件4,其他载波没有触发载波选择,且载波#7满足条件3,则载波#1和载波#7可以作为候选载波。
对应于S520和S540中的第二种实现方式,第二终端设备可以根据自己测量得到的第二载波列表中每个载波的CBR,确定候选载波。或者,第二终端设备可以根据自己和第一终端设备分别测量得到的第二载波列表中每个载波的CBR,确定候选载波。
情况1:第一测量结果包括第二载波列表,但不包括第二载波列表中每个载波的CBR。
在一个示例中,对于第二载波列表中的任一载波,在该载波满足条件5的情况下,将该载波确定为候选载波。
其中,条件5为第二终端设备测量得到的该载波的CBR低于该载波对应的第二CBR载波选择阈值。
比如,第二载波列表为{1,2,5},若载波#1和载波#2满足条件5,载波#5不满足条件5,则载波#1和载波#2可以作为候选载波。
在另一个示例中,在第二载波列表的所有载波上都没有侧行链路授权的情况下,对于第二载波列表中的任一载波,在该载波满足条件5的情况下,将该载波确定为候选载波。
在又一个示例中,在第二载波列表中的部分或全部载波上有侧行链路授权的情况下:对于第二载波列表中触发了载波选择的任一载波,在该载波满足条件6的情况下,将该载波确定为候选载波;对于第二载波列表中未触发载波选择的任一载波,在该载波满足条件5的情况下,将该载波确定为候选载波。
其中,条件6为第二终端设备测量得到的该载波的CBR低于该载波对应的第一CBR载波保留阈值。
比如,第二载波列表为{1,7},若载波#1触发了载波选择,且载波#1满足条件6,其他载波没有触发载波选择,且载波#7不满足条件5,则载波#1可以作为候选载波。
情况2:第一测量结果包括第二载波列表,且包括第二载波列表中每个载波的CBR。
在一个示例中,对于第二载波列表中的任一载波,在该载波满足条件7的情况下,将该载波确定为候选载波。
其中,条件7为第一终端设备测量得到的该载波的CBR和第二终端设备测量得到的该载波的CBR的均值低于该载波对应的第一CBR载波选择阈值或该载波对应的第二CBR载波选择阈值。
在另一个示例中,在第二载波列表的所有载波上都没有侧行链路授权的情况下,对于第二载波列表中的任一载波,在该载波满足条件7的情况下,将该载波确定为候选载波。
在又一个示例中,在第二载波列表中的部分或全部载波上有侧行链路授权的情况下:对于第二载波列表中触发了载波选择的任一载波,在该载波满足条件8的情况下,将该载波确定为候选 载波;对于第二载波列表中未触发载波选择的任一载波,在该载波满足条件7的情况下,将该载波确定为候选载波。
其中,条件8为第一终端设备测量得到的该载波的CBR和第二终端设备测量得到的该载波的CBR的均值低于该载波对应的第一CBR载波保留阈值或该载波对应的第二CBR载波保留阈值。
应理解,在情况2下,也可以采用针对情况1所描述的方案确定候选载波。
可选地,对于任意一个载波,该载波对应的第一CBR载波选择阈值和第二CBR载波选择阈值可以相等,该载波对应的第一CBR载波保留阈值和第二CBR载波保留阈值可以相等。
可选地,第二终端设备可以根据待传输的数据的优先级或者该数据对应的逻辑信道的优先级,确定第二CBR载波选择阈值和/或第二CBR载波保留阈值。待传输的数据的优先级或者该数据对应的逻辑信道的优先级可以是第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送的,比如,第一测量结果可以包括待传输的数据的优先级或者该数据对应的逻辑信道的优先级。
可选地,第一终端设备可以向第二终端设备发送第一CBR载波选择阈值和/或第一CBR载波保留阈值。比如,第一测量结果可以包括第一CBR载波选择阈值和/或第一CBR载波保留阈值。
S560,第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送候选载波的信息。相应地,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的候选载波的信息。
综上,根据本申请提供的通信方法,第二终端设备可以结合自身对载波的CBR的测量结果和第一终端设备对载波的CBR的测量结果,确定候选载波,并且告知第一终端设备候选载波的信息。从而,能够尽可能保证候选载波对这第一终端设备和第二终端设备都适用,进而有利于保证正常的侧行链路通信。
在一些实施例中,第一终端设备可以使用部分候选载波,比如仅使用某一候选载波向第二终端设备发送数据。在该实施例中,在第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的候选载波的信息后,该方法还可以包括:
S570,第一终端设备从候选载波中确定目标载波。
示例性的,第一终端设备可以按照候选载波CBR的递增的顺序选择目标载波。
比如,第一终端设备可以选择候选载波中第一终端设备测量得到的CBR最高的载波作为目标载波。
S580,第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送目标载波信息。
比如,第一终端设备可以向第二终端设备发送目标载波的标识。
在第一终端设备和第二终端设备都获知目标载波后,第一终端设备可以从目标载波上选择资源传输待发送数据。
在前文描述的方法中涉及载波的CBR的概念。下面对如何确定载波的CBR进行举例说明。
示例1:每个载波可以关联一个候选资源池,该候选资源池的CBR作为该候选资源池所关联的载波的CBR。
例如,在方法200中,若第一载波列表为第一终端设备确定的,第一终端设备可以自己确定第一载波列表中每个载波关联的候选资源池,或者网络设备可以向第一终端设备配置第一载波列表中每个载波关联的候选资源池。并且,第一终端设备可以向第二终端设备通知第一载波列表中每个载波关联的候选资源池。若第一载波列表为第二终端设备确定的,第二终端设备可以自己确定第一载波列表中每个载波关联的候选资源池,或者网络设备可以向第二终端设备配置第一载波列表中每个载波关联的候选资源池。并且,第二终端设备可以向第一终端设备通知第一载波列表中每个载波关联的候选资源池。
示例2:第一终端设备或第二终端设备将载波上最大或者最小资源池的CBR作为该资源池所在载波的CBR载波。
示例3:第一终端设备或第二终端设备将载波上前N个较大或者较小资源池CBR的均值作为该资源池所在载波的CBR。
示例4:一个载波的CBR是由该载波上所有资源池中满足RSSI阈值的子信道(sub-channel)的比率所决定。比如,可以将一个载波上所有资源池中的满足RSSI阈值的sub-channel的比率作为该载波的CBR。应理解,一个资源池在频域上包括L个连续子信道。
举例来说,假设载波1上的资源池为资源池1、资源池2和资源池3,资源池1、资源池2和资源池3在频域上分别包括3、4和6个子信道。若资源池1的3个子信道中有1个信道大于接收信号强度指示(received signal strength indicator,RSSI)阈值,资源池2的4个子信道中有2个信道大于RSSI阈值,资源池3的6个子信道中没有一个信道大于RSSI阈值,则载波1上所有资源池中满足RSSI阈值的子信道的比率为0.83(即,0.33+0.5),那么,载波1的CBR为0.83。
示例5:一个载波的CBR是由该载波上各个资源池的CBR按照加权平均数的方式计算得出。
举例来说,任一资源池的CBR的权重可以通过下述两种方式确定:
1)该资源池的子信道数占该载波上所有资源池中子信道总数的比例。
比如,某一载波上有两个资源池,即,资源池1和资源池2,其中,资源池1有有2个子信道,资源池2有3个子信道。那么,资源池1的CBR的权重为0.4,资源池1的CBR的权重为0.6,该载波的CBR=(资源池1的CBR*0.4+资源池2的CBR*0.6)/2。
2)该资源池中RB数占该载波上所有资源池RB数的比例。示例6:定义一个载波粒度的CBR测量方式,网络设备单独提供一套用于测量载波粒度的CBR的参数,基本原理也是计算超过一定阈值的子信道数占所有配置子信道数的比例。这些参数可以包括:
1)测量阈值:如果一个子信道测量到出其RSSI超过(预先配置的)阈值,这个子信道被认为被占用。这里测量阈值指的是RSSI阈值,可以考虑的是其他的测量值,例如RSRP、RSRQ。
2)时域上:在时隙(slot)n上的CBR可以通过测量感知测量窗slot[n-a,n-1]上的CBR获得,其中a=100or 100*2^μ,可选地,a为任意一个整数。
3)频域上:子信道的起始RB位置是载波的起始RB位置,覆盖整个载波的频带,所谓覆盖指的是,子信道应当分布在载波频谱带宽的所有位置。测量载波的CBR的子信道在频域上是连续的,或者是间隔的,间隔设置可以为N个子信道也可以是N个RB。N的值的取值为较小的整数。
