Description

一种通信方法及装置 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及装置。
背景技术
不同发送端的远近效应会导致接收端的信号波动范围较大。因此,接收端接收来自不同发送端的信号和/或信道时,需进行自动增益控制(automatic gain control,AGC)操作,以采用适配的接收功率接收信号和/或信道。
接收端需一定的处理时间进行AGC操作。目前,发送端将发送的信号和/或信道的第一个符号预留给接收端进行AGC操作。然而,发送端采用符号预留的方式供接收端进行AGC操作,会由于AGC操作带来较大的资源开销。
发明内容
本申请实施例提供了一种通信方法及装置,有利于减少AGC操作带来的资源开销。
第一方面,本申请实施例提供一种通信方法,该方面的通信方法是从接收设备侧进行阐述的(可应用于接收设备的设备或芯片上),或者是从集中调度设备侧进行阐述的(可应用于集中调度设备的设备或芯片上)。该方法中,确定第一指示,第一指示用于指示一个或多个发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留;向一个或多个发送设备发送第一指示。
可见,接收设备或集中调度设备向一个或多个发送设备指示是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,一个或多个发送设备中的每个发送设备不需要默认均为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,而是根据第一指示确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。从而有利于接收设备接收来自一个或多个发送设备中每个发送设备的信号和/或信道时,无需使用预留资源进行自动增益控制操作,有利于减少自动增益控制操作带来的资源开销。
一种可能的实施方式中,第一指示具体用于指示第一发送设备为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及一个或多个第二发送设备不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
其中,一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,位于第一发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源之后。
从而,该方式有利于接收设备接收来自第一发送设备的信号和/或信道时,采用预留资源进行自动增益控制操作,而接收来自发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在第一发送设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源之后的一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道时,不采用预留资源进行自动增益控制,有利于减少自动增益控制操作带来的资源开销。
一种可能的实施方式中,第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备均处于接收设备的第一地理位置范围或第一传输时延范围内;和/或,第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,接收设备接收信号和/或信道的信号强度均处于第一信号强度范围内。
第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备均处于接收设备的第一地理位置范围或第一传输时延范围内时,第一发送设备到接收设备的距离,与一个或多个第二发送设备到接收设备的距离相差较小,从而接收设备分别接收来自第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道时,接收信号和/或信道的信号强度在较小范围内波动,比如在预设范围内波动。接收设备接收信号和/或信道的信号强度与功率成正比关系,那么接收设备分别接收来自第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道时的功率也在一定范围内波动,即功率波动范围较小。
第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,接收设备接收信号和/或信道的信号强度均处于第一信号强度范围内,表明接收设备分别接收来自第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道的功率波动也在一定范围内。
接收设备接收来自第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道的功率波动在一定范围内时,有利于第一设备向第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备指示其中的每个发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
一种可能的实施方式中,第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源在时域上连续。也就是说,接收设备接收来自第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道时,不会接收来自其他发送设备的信号和/或信道。从而,一个或多个第二发送设备可无需为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,有利于减少接收设备因进行自动增益控制操作而带来的资源开销。
另一种可能的实施方式中,第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源在时域上不连续,且在第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源之间,无第三发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道。

二.相关概念。
为了更好的理解本申请实施例公开的通信方法,对本申请实施例涉及的相关概念进行简单的介绍。
1.基于竞争的资源配置传输、集中调度的资源配置传输。
基于竞争的资源配置传输是指终端设备与终端设备之间基于竞争的方式,获取用于通信的传输资源。比如,终端之间采用先听后说(listen before talk,LBT)机制获取传输资源。在LBT机制中,发送终端监听来自其他终端的控制信息,通过监听到的控制信息获取其他终端传输信号和/或信道所占用的资源,从而确定未被占用的空闲资源,进而采用空闲资源传输信号和/或信道。
例如,如图2所示,终端1基于LBT机制监听终端2至终端7的控制信息,可获取终端2至终端7传输信号和/或信道所占用的资源,从而确定未被占用的空闲资源,进而从空闲资源中确定自身用于传输信号和/或信道的传输资源。
集中调度的资源配置传输是指网络设备或源节点为终端间的通信集中式的调度资源的传输。源节点可以是网络设备,也可以是终端设备。例如,如图3所示,网络设备为终端1至终端5配置各终端之间进行通信的传输资源。
2.自动增益控制(automatic gain control,AGC)。
接收设备接收的信号强时,通过AGC可自动降低增益;当接收设备接收的信号弱时,通过AGC可升高增益,从而维持输出信号功率恒定或在一定的范围。发送距离差别较大的发送设备会导致接收设备的接收信号波动范围较大,从而造成远近效应,导致接收设备针对来自相邻发送时间的不同发送设备的信号和/或信道时,需要较长的时间进行接收功率的调整,以采用适配的接收功率接收来自每个发送设备的信号和/或信道。
接收设备需要一定的时间进行AGC操作。接收设备接收的信号的子载波间隔不相同时,其进行AGC操作所需的时间不相同。典型的,子载波间隔为15KHz时,接收设备进行AGC操作所需的时间小于或等于35us;子载波间隔为30KHz时,接收设备进行AGC操作所需的时间小于或等于18us;子载波间隔为60KHz时,接收设备进行AGC操作所需的时间小于或等于9us。可见,接收设备接收的信号的子载波间隔越大,其进行AGC操作所需的时间越少。
目前,为应对接收设备进行AGC操作,发送设备将发送的信号和/或信道的第一个符号进行预留,即预留给接收设备进行AGC操作。也就是说,接收设备接收信号和/或信道时,可采用信号和/或信道的第一个符号进行AGC操作。
不同接收设备的性能不一样,从而不同接收设备进行AGC操作所需的时间也不相同。因此,接收设备进行AGC操作的时间可能小于一个符号。发送设备在发送的信号和/或信道的第二个符号上承载信号或信道时,比如承载物理侧行链路共享信道(physical sidelink share channel,PSSCH)、解调参考信号(demodulation reference signal,DMRS)、相位跟踪参考信号(phase tracking reference signal,PTRS)、信道状态信息-参考信号(channel state information reference signal,CSI-RS)、物理侧行链路控制信道(physical sidelink control channel,PSCCH)等时,发送设备在第一个符号上也承载该第二个符号上承载的信号或信道,即在第一个符号上重复发送第二个符号上承载的信号或信道。从而,接收设备在接收来自发送设备的信号和/或信道时,在信号和/或信道的第一个符号内上进行AGC操作,若进行AGC操作所需的时间较短,如小于循环前缀(cyclic prefix,CP),则可继续在该符号内接收信号和/或信道,以尽可能多的成功接收信号和/或信道,如提前成功解码信道或用于与后面信道和/或信道的合并接收,可提高接收性能。
示例性的,图4是发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源。如图4所示,该时域资源的第一个符号是预留给接收设备进行AGC操作的资源,即接收设备可在该第一个符号内进行AGC操作。该时域资源的第二个符号上携带PSCCH和DMRS。为提高接收设备的接收性能,发送设备在第一个符号上也发送DMRS和PSCCH,即在第一个符号上进行DMRS和PSCCH的重复发送。从而,接收设备可在第一个符号内完成AGC操作后,接收DMRS和PSCCH,可提高成功接收DMRS和PSCCH的概率。此外,该第二符号也可同时包括物理下行共享信道(physical downlink shared channel,PDSCH),相应的第一符号包括该PDSCH的重复。
可选的,发送设备还可对用于向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道的符号进行打孔,即使得该符号用于接收设备进行AGC操作,该方式会导致接收性能变差。比如,发送设备对用于向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的第一个符号进行打孔,从而接收设备在该信号和/或信道所占用的第一个符号内进行AGC操作,不进行信号和/或信道的接收。
可见,目前发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,会默认进行资源预留,比如预留一个符号供接收设备进行AGC操作使用。然而,该方式会使得接收设备接收来自每个发送设备的信号和/或信道时,均在信号和/或信道所占用的第一个符号内进行AGC操作,导致第一个符号资源无法使用,从而带来较大的资源开销。

三.通信方法100。
本申请实施例提供一种通信方法100。图5是该通信方法100的交互示意图。该通信方法100中,第一设备通过第一指示向一个或多个发送设备指示是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,从而一个或多个发送设备中的每个发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,根据第一指示确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。该通信方法100包括但不限于以下步骤:
S101.第一设备确定第一指示,第一指示用于指示一个或多个发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
一种可能的实施方式,资源预留,包括:对用于向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道的符号进行打孔操作。例如,发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,对将向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的第一个符号进行打孔操作,即发送设备不在向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的第一个符号上发送信号和/或信道,以使接收设备采用该第一个符号进行AGC操作。
另一种可能的实施方式中,资源预留,包括:对向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道在符号上进行重复发送。示例性的,如图4所示,发送设备对向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道在第一个符号上进行重复发送,以使接收设备在第一个符号内进行AGC操作后,可接收来自发送设备的信号和/或信道。
因此,发送设备为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,意味着接收设备接收来自该发送设备的信号和/或信道时,该预留资源用于进行AGC操作,即接收设备采用信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源进行AGC操作。相应的,发送设备不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,意味着接收设备接收来自该发送设备的信号和/或信道时,无需采用信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源进行AGC操作,或接收设备可在较短的时间如CP内完成AGC操作,接收设备基于信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源接收信号和/或信号即可,从而可减少因AGC操作带来的资源开销。
一种可能的实现中,第一指示用于指示发送设备为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,也可理解为第一指示用于指示发送设备将AGC预留时间打开(on)。相应的,第一指示用于指示发送设备不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,也可理解为第一指示用于指示发送设备将AGC预留时间关闭(off)。
一种可能的实现中,第一设备还可预先获取一个或多个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,以及一个或多个发送设备中每个发送设备的地理位置信息。该地理位置信息可包括发送设备与接收设备之间的距离、发送设备到接收设备的角度、发送设备的地理位置坐标。示例性地,地理位置坐标可以是相对位置或绝对位置的经度、纬度、高度。示例性地,发送设备到接收设备的角度可以是到达角(angle of arrival,AOA)、垂直到达角(zenith angle of arrival,ZOA)等。从而,接收设备可根据一个或多个发送设备中每个发送设备处于接收设备的位置范围,以及每个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,确定每个发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,即确定第一指示。
示例性的,第一设备将地理位置处于接收设备的同一个地理位置范围内的发送设备划分为一个组,针对该组内向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在时域上相邻的多个发送设备,第一设备确定该多个发送设备中向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,在时域上靠前的第一个发送设备为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,在时域上位于之后的一个或多个发送设备不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。也就是说,针对地理位置处于接收设备的同一地理位置范围内的多个发送设备(即属于同一组的多个发送设备),向接收设备发送信号和/或信道的发送时间在最靠前的发送设备为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,向接收设备发送信号和/或信道的发送时间在之后的一个或多个发送设备不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
示例性的,第一设备为接收终端,与该接收终端进行通信的发送终端包括发送终端1、发送终端2和发送终端3。接收终端获取发送终端1、发送终端2和发送终端3的地理位置信 息,以及发送终端1、发送终端2和发送终端3分别向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源。接收终端获知发送终端1和发送终端3处于接收终端的同一地理位置范围,且发送终端1向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,和发送终端3向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在时域上相邻。那么,接收终端确定分别接收来自发送终端1和发送终端3的信号和/或信道时,其接收信号和/或信道的接收功率波动较小。因此,接收终端确定发送时间在之前的发送终端1为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及发送时间在之后的发送终端3不为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。发送终端2与发送终端1、发送终端3不属于接收终端的同一地理位置范围,接收终端确定发送终端2为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
从而,接收终端接收来自发送终端1和发送终端2的信号和/或信道时需要使用预留资源进行AGC操作,接收来自发送终端3的信号和/或信道时,不需要使用预留资源进行AGC操作,从而可减少由于AGC操作带来的资源开销。
可选的,第一设备获取一个或多个发送设备的向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源,以及每个发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时的传输时延/传输时间。第一设备可基于每个发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时的传输时延/传输时间,确定每个发送设备所处的接收设备的地理位置范围,进而基于一个或多个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源,以及每个发送设备所处的接收设备的地理位置范围,确定一个或多个发送设备中的每个发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
可选的,第一设备还可基于一个或多个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源,以及每个发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时的传输时延/传输时间所属的范围,确定一个或多个发送设备中的每个发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
示例性的,第一设备为接收终端,与该接收终端进行通信的发送终端包括发送终端1、发送终端2和发送终端3。发送终端获取发送终端1、发送终端2和发送终端3向接收终端发送信号和/或信道时的传输时延,以及发送终端1、发送终端2和发送终端3分别向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源。接收终端获知发送终端1和发送终端2向接收终端发送信号和/或信道时的传输时延处于同一传输时延范围内,且发送终端1向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,和发送终端2向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在时域上相邻。那么,接收终端确定发送时间在之前的发送终端1为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及发送时间在之后的发送终端2不为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。发送终端3向接收终端发送信号和/或信道时的传输时延,与发送终端1和发送终端2向接收终端发送信号和/或信道时的传输时延不属于同一传输时延范围,因此接收终端确定发送终端3为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
另一种可能的实施方式中,第一设备可获取一个或多个发送设备的向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源,以及一个或多个发送设备中的每个发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道,接收设备接收的来自每个发送设备的信号和/或信道时的信号强度或信号强度范围。第一设备再基于一个或多个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源,以及接收设备接收的来自每个发送设备的信号和/或信道时的信号强度或信号强度范围,确定一个或多个发送设备中的每个发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
第一设备基于一个或多个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源,以及接收设备接收的来自每个发送设备的信号和/或信道时的信号强度或信号强度范围,确定一个或多个发送设备中的每个发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留的实施方式,可参见上述第一设备基于一个或多个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源,以每个发送设备所处于的接收设备的地理位置范围,确定一个或多个发送设备中的每个发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留的实施方式,不再赘述。
可见,第一设备可确定一个或多个发送设备中的部分发送设备为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,也可确定部分发送设备不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。从而有利于接收设备接收来自该一个或多个发送设备的信号和/或信道时,针对部分发送设备配置预留资源进行AGC操作,也可针对其余部分发送设备不配置预留资源进行AGC操作,进而有利于减少接收设备因配置预留资源进行AGC操作带来的资源开销。
可选的,第一指示用于指示一个发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,第一设备可确定多个第一指示,每个第一指示对应一个发送设备。也就是说,第一设备可确定多个发送设备中每个发送设备的第一指示,每个第一指示用于指示该发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。第一设备确定多个发送设备中每个发送设是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留的实施方式可参见上述,不再赘述。
可理解的,第一设备可通过第一指示中1比特的比特值来指示是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。示例性的,第一指示中用于指示是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留的比特为1时,表示为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留;第一指示中用于指示是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留的比特为0时,表示不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。当第一设备通过组播或多播方式发送第一指示时,每个发送设备可根据其在第一设备发送的指示比特序列中的位置确定其预留资源指示。该方式有利于发送设备根据第一指示中的比特值,确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。另外,该方式也可减少信令开销。
可选的,第一指示用于指示多个发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,第一指示还可包括多个发送设备中每个发送设备的标识,且每个发送设备的标识与该发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留具有关联关系。该方式有利于多个发送设备中的每个发送设备根据自身的标识从第一指示中,确定该发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
可选的,第一指示用于指示多个发送设备中的部分发送设备为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,第一指示还可包括该部分发送设备的标识。相应的,第一指示用于指示多个发送设备中的另一部分发送设备不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,第一指示中不包括该部分发送设备的标识。从而每个发送设备可基于第一指示中是否包含自身的标识,确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。该方式可减少信令开销。
S102.第一设备向一个或多个发送设备发送第一指示。相应的,一个或多个发送设备中的每个发送设备接收第一指示。
可理解的,第一指示用于指示多个发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,第一设备可通过组播的方式向多个发送设备发送第一指示。
可选的,第一指示用于指示一个发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,第一设备确定多个第一指示,从而第一设备可通过单播的方式,向多个发送设备中的每个发送设备分别发送该发送设备的第一指示。
S103.发送设备根据第一指示,确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
可理解的,该发送设备是一个或多个发送设备中的任意一个发送设备。
第一指示用于指示多个发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,发送设备可基于该发送设备的标识,从第一指示中确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
发送设备接收的第一指示用于指示该发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,发送设备可通过第一指示获知是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
一种可能的实施方式中,发送设备确定为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,对用于向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道的符号进行打孔操作。相应的,接收设备接收来自发送设备的信号和/或信道时,采用预留资源进行AGC操作,且对用于接收来自发送设备的信号和/或信道的符号进行打孔操作。
可选的,发送设备确定为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,对向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道在符号上进行重复发送。相应的,接收设备接收来自发送设备的信号和/或信道时,采用预留资源进行AGC操作,进行AGC操作结束后,接收来自发送设备的信号和/或信道。
可选的,发送设备确定不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,根据向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,向接收设备发送信号和/或信道。相应的,接收设备接收来自发送设备的信号和/或信道时,无需采用预留资源进行AGC操作,根据发送设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,接收信号和/或信道,可减少进行AGC操作带来的资源开销。
本申请实施例中,第一设备向一个或多个发送设备指示是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,从而一个或多个发送设备中的每个发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,不是默认进行资源预留,而是根据第一指示确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。进而有利于接收设备接收来自该一个或多个发送设备中每个发送设备的信号和/或信道时,无需默认使用预留资源进行AGC操作,有利于减少AGC操作带来的资源开销。
四.通信方法200。
本申请实施例还提供了一种通信方法200,图6是该通信方法200的交互示意图。该通信方法200中,第一设备通过第一指示向一个或多个发送设备中的第一发送设备指示为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及向一个或多个发送设备中发送时间在第一发送设备之后的一个或多个第二发送设备指示不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。该通信方法200包括但不限于以下步骤:
S201.第一设备确定第一指示,第一指示用于指示第一发送设备为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及一个或多个第二发送设备不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
可理解的,接收设备是接收终端,第一发送设备可理解为第一发送终端,第二发送设备可理解为第二发送终端。第一发送终端和一个或多个第二发送终端均是针对该接收终端的发送终端,即第一发送终端和一个或多个发送终端均是向接收终端发送信号和/或信道的发送终端。那么,接收终端或集中调度设备为第一发送终端指示为向该接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及为一个或多个第二发送终端配置不为向该接/收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
其中,一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,位于第一发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源之后。也可理解为,一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道的时间,位于第一发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道的时间之后。
该方式下,第一设备还可预先获取多个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,从而根据第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,确定第一指示。比如,接收设备通过侧行链路控制信息(sidelink control information,SCI)的周期预留信息或高层信令信息,获取多个发送设备向接收设备发送的周期信号和/或周期信道所占用的时域资源。
另外,资源预留的实施方式可参见上述通信方法100中所述,不再赘述。
一种可能的实施方式中,第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备均处于接收设备的第一地理位置范围,或第一传输时延/第一传输时间范围内。该方式下,接收设备接收来自第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道时,接收信号和/或信道的功率波动范围较小,比如功率波动范围在预设范围内。那么,接收设备可在预留资源上对来自第一发送设备的信号和/或信道进行AGC操作,后续接收来自一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道时可不需要预留资源进行AGC操作。
因此,第一设备指示第一发送设备为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及指示一个或多个第二发送设备不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。该方式中,接收设备接收来自一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道时,无需预留资源进行AGC操作,从而有利于因减少AGC操作带来的资源开销。
该实施方式下,第一设备可预先获取与接收设备进行通信的多个发送设备的地理位置。第一设备根据与接收设备进行通信的多个发送设备的地理位置,为多个发送设备进行分组,将距离接收设备的位置在相同地理位置范围的一个或多个发送设备归为同一个组。或者,第一设备将属于相同预配置地理位置范围的一个或多个发送设备归为同一个组,预配置地理位置范围是预先设定的。该方式可使得接收设备接收来自每个组内的发送设备的信号和/或信道时,其接收信号和/或信道的接收功率的波动范围较小。
示例性的,如图7所示的基于竞争的资源配置传输场景下,第一设备为接收终端。与接收终端进行通信的发送终端包括发送终端1至发送终端6,且发送终端1和发送终端2处于接收终端的同一个地理位置范围内,发送终端3、发送终端4、发送终端5和发送终端6处于接收终端的另一个地理位置范围内。因此,接收终端将发送终端1和发送终端2归为组1,将发送终端3、发送终端4、发送终端5和发送终端6归为组2。第一发送终端和一个或多个第二发送终端是组1或组2中部分或全部发送终端。例如,第一发送终端是发送终端3,一个或多个第二发送终端包括发送终端4、发送终端5和发送终端6。
从而,接收终端可为组1和组2内的第一发送终端指示为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及为组1和组2内的第二发送终端指示不为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
示例性的,以每个发送终端向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道为例,图7中组1和组2内的发送终端向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源可参见图8。如图8所示,组1内的斜线填充区域表示发送终端2向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,组2内的斜线填充区域代表发送终端4向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,组1内的黑色填充区域代表发送终端1向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,组2内的白色填充区域代表发送终端3、发送终端5和发送终端6向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源。
从图8可看出,发送终端2向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,在发送终端1向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源之前;发送终端4向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,在发送终端3、发送终端5和发送终端6向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源之前。从而网络设备通过第一指示向组1内的发送终端2和组2内的发送终端4指示为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及通过第一指示向组1内的发送终端1,以及组2内的发送终端3、发送终端5和发送终端6指示不为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
示例性的,如图9所示的集中调度的资源配置传输场景下,第一设备为网络设备。与接收终端进行通信的发送终端包括发送终端1至发送终端4。网络设备基于接收终端,以及发送终端1至发送终端4中每个发送终端的地理位置,确定发送终端1和发送终端2处于接收终端的地理位置范围1,以及确定发送终端3和发送终端4处于接收终端的地理位置范围2。网络设备将发送终端1和发送终端2归为组1,以及将发送终端3和发送终端4归为组2。
例如,每个发送终端向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道,图9中组1和组2内的发送终端向接收终端发送信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源可参见图10。如图10所示,组1内的斜线填充区域表示发送终端1向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,组2内的斜线填充区域代表发送终端3向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,组1内的黑色填充区域代表发送终端2向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,组2内的白色填充区域依次代表发送终端4向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源。
从图10可看出,发送终端1向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,在发送终端2向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源之前;发送终端3向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,在发送终端4向接收终端发送周期性的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源之前。从而网络设备通过第一指示向组1内的发送终端1和组2内的发送终端3指示为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及通过第一指示向组1内的发送终端2和组2内的发送终端4指示不为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
可选的,第一设备还可预先获取与接收设备进行通信的多个发送设备与该接收设备的传输时延。其中,传输时延是指以发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道的发送时间为参考,接收设备接收到信号和/或信道时的延时。可选的,传输时延也可理解为传输时间。
第一设备获得与接收设备进行通信的多个发送设备与该接收设备的传输时延后,将传输时延/传输时间属于同一范围内的一个或多个发送设备确定为一个组。第一设备再基于该组内 每个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,从该组中确定第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备。
例如,与接收终端进行通信的多个发送终端包括发送终端1、发送终端2、发送终端3、发送终端4和发送终端5,发送终端1和发送终端4与接收终端的传输时延处于传输时延范围1内,发送终端2、发送终端3和发送终端5与接收终端的传输时延处于传输时延范围2内。接收终端将发送终端1和发送终端4归为组1,将发送终端2、发送终端3和发送终端5归为组2。第一发送终端和一个或多个第二发送终端是组1或组2中部分或全部发送终端。
可选的,第一设备获取到与接收设备进行通信的多个发送设备与该接收设备的传输时延或传输时间后,基于多个发送设备中每个发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时的传输时延或传输时间,确定每个发送设备处于接收设备的地理位置范围,再基于每个发送设备处于接收设备的地理位置范围,对多个发送设备进行分组。
另一种可能的实施方式中,第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,接收设备接收信号和/或信道的信号强度均处于第一信号强度范围内。该方式下,接收设备接收来自第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道时,其接收功率波动范围也较小,从而第一设备确定第一发送设备为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,一个或多个第二发送设备不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
该实施方式下,第一设备可根据多个发送设备中的每个发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,接收设备接收信号和/或信道的信号强度所属于的信号强度范围,对多个发送设备进行分组。第一设备将接收设备接收信号和/或信道的信号强度属于同一个信号强度范围或预设的信号强度范围内对应的发送设备归为一个组。
示例性的,第一设备是接收终端,与接收终端进行通信的发送终端包括发送终端1、发送终端2、发送终端3和发送终端4。接收终端接收来自发送终端1和发送终端4的信号和/或信道的信号强度属于信号强度范围1,接收来自发送终端2和发送终端3的信号和/或信道的信号强度属于信号强度范围2。接收终端将发送终端1和发送终端4归为组1,将发送终端2和发送终端3归为组2。
本申请实施例中,预设的地理位置范围,或预设的信号强度范围,或预设的传输时延范围,或传输时间范围与接收设备的AGC处理能力有关。例如,预设的地理位置范围,或预设的信号强度范围,或预设的传输时延范围,或传输时间范围对应接收设备的AGC处理时间不需要额外增加一个符号,如接收设备可在如当前的CP范围内完成AGC操作,从而可减少AGC操作带来的资源开销。
第一设备对与接收设备进行通信的多个发送设备进行分组后,基于每个组内的发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,确定该组内的第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备,再向第一发送设备指示为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及向一个或多个第二发送设备指示不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
一种可能的实施方式中,第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在时域上连续。
可理解的,第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信号所占用的时域资源在时域上连续,那么接收设备接收来自第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道的过程中,不会接收来自其他发送设备的信号和/或信道。另外,接收来自第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道的接收功率波动范围较小,从而 第一设备可指示第一发送设备为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及指示一个或多个第二发送设备不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以使得接收设备接收来自一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道时,无需要预留资源进行AGC操作,可减少AGC操作带来的资源开销。
可选的,第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在时域上不连续,且在第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源之间,无第三发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道。
其中,第三发送设备是位于第一地理位置范围外,或第一传输时延/第一传输时间范围外的发送设备,和/或,是向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,接收设备接收信号和/或信道的信号强度处于第一信号强度范围外的发送设备。也可理解为,第三发送设备是与第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备处于不同组的发送设备。
可理解的,第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在时域上不连续时,且在第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源范围内,没有组外的第三发送设备针对接收设备的发送。因此,虽然第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在时域上不连续时,第一设备仍可指示第一发送设备为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,一个或多个第二发送设备不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,从而有利于减少AGC操作带来的资源开销。
一种可能的实施方式中,第一设备还可发送第三指示,第三指示用于指示一个或多个第四发送设备将其向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源调整为第一时域资源。第四发送设备是位于第一地理位置范围,或第一传输时延/第一传输时间范围内的发送设备,和/或,是向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,接收设备接收信号的信号强度位于第一信号强度范围内的发送设备。第四发送设备包括第一发送设备,和/或,一个或多个第二发送设备。
第四发送设备是第一发送设备,和/或,一个或多个第二发送设备时,第一设备确定第一指示之前,发送第三指示,第三指示用于指示第一发送设备,和/或,一个或多个第二发送设备将其向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源调整为第一时域资源。
第三指示可使得第一发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,和一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在时域上连续;或者,可使得第一发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,和一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在时域上不连续,但在第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源范围内,无其他发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道。进而有利于第一设备向第一发送设备指示为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及向一个或多个第二发送设备指示不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
第四发送设备是位于第一地理位置范围,或第一传输时延/第一传输时间范围内且除第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备之外的发送设备,和/或,是向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,接收设备接收信号的信号强度位于第一信号强度范围内且除第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备之外的发送设备时,第一设备可向第四设备发送第三指示,以使得第四设备将向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源调整为第一时域资源。该方式下,第一 设备还可指示第四发送设备不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,可减少接收设备进行AGC操作带来的资源开销。
一种可能的实施方式中,第一指示还包括第一发送设备和,该第一发送设备的标识对应的资源预留指示,一个或多个第二发送设备中每个发送设备的标识,以及一个或多个第二发送设备中每个发送设备的标识对应的资源预留指示。其中,第一发送设备的标识对应的资源预留指示用于指示向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,一个或多个第二发送设备中每个发送设备的标识对应的资源预留指示用于指示不向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。该方式可使得第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备中每个发送设备,从第一指示中确定自身是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
一种可能的实施方式中,发送设备确定第一指示,包括:发送设备确定第一发送设备的第一指示,以及一个或多个第二发送设备的第一指示。第一发送设备的第一指示用于指示为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,一个或多个第二发送设备的第一指示用于指示不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
一种可能的实施方式中,第一设备通过第一指示中1比特的比特值指示是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,其具体实施方式可参见上述通信方法100中所述,不再赘述。
S202.第一设备发送第一指示。相应的,发送设备接收第一指示。
其中,该发送设备可以是第一发送设备,也可以是一个或多个第二发送设备中的任意一个发送设备。
可理解的,第一设备可通过组播或单播的方式向第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备,发送第一指示。
可选的,第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备中的每个发送设备对应一个第一指示时,第一设备通过单播的方式向每个发送设备发送该发送设备的第一指示。
第一设备通过单播的方式向第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备中的每个发送设备发送该发送设备的第一指示时,位于与第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备不同组的组外发送设备(第三发送设备)可通过控制信息,检测第一发送设备和一个或多个发送设备的第一指示。从而,第三发送设备可获知第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备,向接收设备发送信号和/或信道的情况,该情况包括预留资源配置情况,发送资源的配置情况。
可选的,第一设备还可向第三设备发送第一指示。也就是说,第一设备还可向与第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备处于不同组的发送设备发送第一指示,以使组外的第三发送设备获知第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备,向接收设备发送信号和/或信道的情况,该情况包括预留资源配置情况,发送资源的配置情况。
进而,第三发送设备可尽可能不在第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源范围内,向接收设备发送信号和/或信道。该方式有利于降低接收设备需预留资源配置进行AGC带来的资源开销,或由于接收设备需进行AGC操作而进行AGC适配导致的性能损失。
S203.发送设备根据第一指示,确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
发送设备是第一发送设备时,第一发送设备根据第一指示,确定为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。从而,第一发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,进行资源预留。相应的,接收设备接收来自第一发送设备的信号和/或信道时,进行AGC操作。
发送设备是第二发送设备时,第二发送设备根据第一指示,确定不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。从而,第二发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,不进行资源预留。相应的,接收设备接收来自第二发送设备的信号和/或信道时,无需使用预留资源进行AGC操作,可减少为AGC操作预留资源带来的资源开销。
可选的,发送设备根据第一指示,确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留后,还可不采用根据第一指示确定的结果,而自行确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
示例性的,第二发送设备根据第一指示,确定不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,但第二发送设备基于信道变化情况,自行确定向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。从而,第二发送设备向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,进行资源预留。
一种可能的实施方式中,第一发送设备,和/或,一个或多个第二发送设备确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,向接收设备发送第二指示,第二指示用于指示是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。从而,第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备可分别基于自身发送的第二指示,向接收设备发送信号和/或信道。
相应的,第一设备是接收设备时,接收设备还可接收来自第一发送设备,和/或,一个或多个第二发送设备的第二指示。进而,接收设备基于第二指示,接收来自第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道。
可选的,第一发送设备向接收设备发送第二指示。相应的,接收设备接收来自第一发送设备的第二指示。
可选的,一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送第二指示。相应的,接收设备接收来自一个或多个第二发送设备的第二指示。
示例性的,第一发送设备为发送终端1,一个或多个第二发送设备包括发送终端2、发送终端3、发送终端4和发送终端5。发送终端1根据第一指示确定为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,发送终端2、发送终端3和发送终端5根据第一指示确定不为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,发送终端4根据信道变化自行确定为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。发送终端1至发送终端5均向接收终端发送第二指示。发送终端1和发送终端4向接收终端发送的第二指示用于指示为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,发送终端2、发送终端3和发送终端5向接收终端发送的第二指示用于指示不为向接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
从而,接收终端接收来自发送终端1和发送终端4的信号和/或信道时,使用预留资源进行AGC操作。接收终端接收来自发送终端2、发送终端3和发送终端5的信号和/或信道时,不使用预留资源进行AGC操作,从而可减少AGC操作而带来的资源开销。
可选的,第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备中的发送设备确定为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,向接收设备发送第二指示,第二指示用于指示为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。该方式下,接收设备未接收到某个发送设备的第二指示时,默认该发送设备不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
可选的,第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备中的发送设备确定不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,向接收设备发送第二指示,第二指示用于指示不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。该方式下,接收设备未接收到某个发送设备的第二指示时,默认该发送设备为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备中的发送设备在确定为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,或者在确定不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留时,向接收设备发送第二指示的两种实施方式均可节省信令开销。
一种可能的实施方式中,第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备通过第二指示中1比特的比特值,指示自身是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。例如,第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备中的每个发送设备发送的第二指示中1比特的比特值为1时,代表为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,第二指示中1比特的比特值为0时,代表不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
另一种可能的实施方式中,第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备中的每个发送设备通过向接收设备指示发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,间接指示是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。例如,发送设备向接收设备指示发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源包含第一个时隙中的第一个符号时,表明发送设备为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留;向接收设备指示发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源不包括第一个时隙中的第一个符号,表明发送设备不为接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备通过第二指示向接收设备指示是否为向接收设备发送信号和/或信道的方式,有利于接收设备快速确定接收来自每个发送设备的信号和/或信道时所采用的时频资源。若第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备不通过第二指示向接收设备指示是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,则接收设备接收信号和/或信道时,需基于控制信号的检测确定信号和/或信道的传输资源,如待所有可能的控制资源检测完成后才能确定待接收的信号和/或信道时所采用的时频资源。
一种可能的实施方式中,第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道均是周期性发送的。也就是说,第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备进行周期业务。
该方式有利于一个或多个发送设备中的每个发送设备在每个周期内向接收设备发送周期信号和/或周期信道时,均根据第一指示确定是否为向接收设备发送的周期信号和/或周期信道进行资源预留,从而有利于接收设备在每个发送设备的每个周期内接收周期信号和/或周期信道时,均无需默认有预留资源作为自动增益控制操作,有利于减少资源开销。
示例性的,在第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备的第一发送周期内,第一发送设备根据第一指示确定为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,一个或多个第二发送设备根据第一指示确定不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。在第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备的第二发送周期内,第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备仍根据第一指示确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,即第一发送设备在第二发送周期内仍为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,一个或多个第二发送设备在第二发送周期内仍不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
该方式可使得接收设备在第一发送设备,以及一个或多个第二发送设备的每个发送周期内,均在接收来自第一发送设备的信号和/或信道,使用预留资源配置进行AGC操作,而在接收来自一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道时,无需预留资源进行AGC操作,从而可大量减少AGC资源预留带来的资源开销。
一种可能的实施方式中,若发生突发情况,例如在第一发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,以及一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源范围内,有其他发送设备针对该接收设备的发送,第一设备向在下一个传 输时间间隔(transmission time interval,TTI)或时隙或传输时间单元发送信号和/或信道的发送设备,指示为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,或者告知在下一个TTI发送信号和/或信道的发送设备取消对第一指示的配置。
示例性的,第二发送设备a与第二发送设备b之间,有发送设备c针对接收设备的发送,那么第一设备可向第二发送设备b指示为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,或告知第二发送设备b取消对该第二发送设备b的第一指示的配置。从而第二发送设备b向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,进行资源预留,以提高接收设备成功接收信号和/或信道的概率。
可选的,若接收设备未正确译码来自第二发送设备b的信号和/或信道信息,接收设备向第二发送设备b进行否认应答(negative acknowledgement,NACK)反馈。
一种可能的实施方式中,发送设备是一个或多个第二发送设备中的任意一个第二发送设备,且该第二发送设备向接收设备发送的非周期信号和/或非周期信道所占用的时域资源,与该第二发送设备向接收设备发送的周期信号和/或周期信道所占用的时域资源在时域上部分重叠或完全重叠,但第二发送设备向接收设备发送的非周期信号和/或非周期信道所占用的频域资源,与该第二发送设备向接收设备发送的周期信号和/或周期信道所占用的频域资源不相同时,接收设备接收来自第二发送设备的非周期信号和/或非周期信道时,也可不使用预留资源进行AGC操作。
因此,该情况下,第一设备还可向第二发送设备发送第五指示,该第五指示用于指示不为向接收设备发送的非周期信号和/或非周期信道进行资源预留。
可选的,发送设备是一个或多个第二发送设备中的任意一个第二发送设备,且该第二发送设备向接收设备发送的非周期信号和/或非周期信道所占用的时域资源,位于第一发送设备和一个或多个第二发送设备向接收设备发送的周期信号和/或周期信道所占用的时域资源范围内,第一设备也可向该第二发送设备发送第五指示,第五指示用于指示不为向接收设备发送的非周期信号和/或非周期信道进行资源预留。
本申请实施例中,接收设备向第一发送设备指示为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以及向发送时间在第一发送设备之后的一个或多个第二发送设备指示不为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。从而有利于接收设备接收来自第一发送设备的信号和/或信道时使用预留资源进行AGC操作,而接收来自一个或多个第二发送设备的信号和/或信道时,不需要使用预留资源进行AGC操作,进而可减少资源开销。
五.通信方法300。
本申请实施例还基于集中调度的资源配置方式提供了一种通信方法300,图11是该通信方法300的交互示意图。该通信方法300中,集中调度设备通过第一指示来指示多跳通信的发送设备与其当前跳的接收设备通信时,是否为向当前跳的接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。该通信方法300包括但不限于以下步骤:
S301.集中调度设备确定第一指示,第一指示用于指示多跳通信的发送设备与其当前跳的接收设备通信时,是否为向当前跳的接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
其中,多跳通信是指信号和/或信道经过从信源到信宿之间的多个节点的转发完成的,即信息的传输是通过链路上的多个节点的转发完成的。示例性的,信号a从终端1到终端4的过程中,需要终端2和终端3的转发,即终端1向终端2发送信号a,终端2将信号a转发给终端3,终端3再将信号a转发给终端4。
可理解的,集中调度设备确定多跳通信的发送设备与其当前跳的接收设备通信时,是否为向当前跳的接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,是以该发送设备的当前跳的接收设备为中心,基于与向当前跳的接收设备进行通信的多个发送设备的地理位置、传输时延/传输时间,和/或,向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,接收设备接收信号和/或信道的信号强度所处于的范围,确定该发送设备是否为向当前跳的接收设备发送的信号和/信道进行资源预留。
示例性的,如图12所示,参与多跳通信的发送设备包括终端1、终端2和终端3,终端1向发送终端2发送信号1,终端2将信号1转发给终端3,则终端2是终端1与终端2通信时当前跳的接收终端,终端3是终端2与终端3通信时当前跳的接收终端。向终端2发送信号和/或信道的发送终端还包括终端4和终端5,若终端1和终端4处于终端2的同一地理位置范围内,或处于同一传输时延范围内,和/或,终端1和终端4向终端2发送信号和/或信道时,终端2接收来自终端1和终端4的信号和/或信道的信号强度处于同一信号强度范围,表明终端2接收来自终端1和终端4的信号和/或信道时,其接收信号和/或信道的接收功率波动范围较小。另外,终端1向终端2发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在终端4向终端2发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源之前,那么集中调度设备可确定终端1为向终端2发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,以使得终端2接收来自终端1的信号和/或信道时,使用预留资源进行AGC操作。
另外,向终端3发送信号和/或信道的发送终端还包括终端6,若终端2和终端6处于终端3的同一地理位置范围内,或处于同一传输时延范围内,和/或,终端2和终端6向终端3发送信号和/或信道时,终端3接收来自终端2和终端6的信号和/或信道的信号强度处于同一信号强度范围,表明终端3接收来自终端2和终端6的信号和/或信道时,其接收信号和/或信道的接收功率波动范围较小。另外,终端2向终端3发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,与终端6向终端3发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在时域上相邻,且终端2向终端3发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在终端6向终端3发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源之后,那么集中调度设备确定终端6为向终端3发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,终端2不为向终端3发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。从而,终端3接收来自终端2的信号和/或信道时,不使用预留资源进行AGC操作,可减少由于AGC操作带来的资源开销。
可选的,终端2向终端3发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,在终端6向终端3发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源之后,且终端2向终端3发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在终端6向终端3发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源在时域上不相邻,在终端2向终端3发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,以及终端6向终端3发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源范围内,无其他发送终端向终端3发送信号和/或信道。那么,终端3接收来自终端2和终端6的信号和/或信道时,不会接收来自其他终端的信号和/或信道。从而集中调度设备也可确定终端2不为向终端3发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,终端6为向终端3发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
可见,集中调度设备确定发送终端是否为向当前跳的接收终端发送的信号和/信道预留资源时,是以该发送终端和与之通信的接收终端的当前跳的接收终端为中心,结合与当前跳的接收终端进行通信的各终端情况,确定该发送终端是否为向当前跳的接收终端发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
一种可能的实施方式中,第一指示还包括发送设备的标识。该方式可使得多跳通信的发送设备根据自身的标识从第一指示中,确定该发送设备是否为向当前跳的接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
一种可能的实施方式中,集中调度设备确定多跳通信的多个发送设备的第一指示,每个发送设备的第一指示用于指示多跳通信中该发送设备是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
S302.集中调度设备发送第一指示。相应的,发送设备接收第一指示。
可理解的,集中调度设备通过第一控制信息向多跳通信中的第一个发送设备发送第一发送设备的第一指示,以及通过第二控制信息向多跳通信中的其他发送设备发送其余发送设备的第一指示。该方式可降低第一控制信息的载荷量和保持控制信息的可靠性。
示例性的,多跳通信包括终端1、终端2和终端3,终端1是多跳通信中的第一个发送设备,集中调度设备通过SCI 1向终端1发送终端1的第一指示,以及通过SCI 2向终端2发送终端2的第一指示。SCI1和SCI2可由集中调度设备配置给终端1,终端1在终端1与终端2之间的链路发送SCI1和SCI2,SCI2用于指示终端2与终端3的通信配置。
可选的,集中调度设备通过第一控制信息向多跳通信中的第一个发送设备发送第一指示,以及通过数据信息向多跳通信中的其他发送设备发送第二指示。该方式可提高资源使用效率。
S303.发送设备根据第一指示,确定是否为向当前跳的接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
其中,该发送设备是多跳通信中的任意一个发送设备。
可理解的,多跳通信的每个发送设备可根据自身的第一指示,确定该发送设备是否为向当前跳的接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,从而多跳通信中的每个发送设备不是默认为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,有利于部分发送设备当前跳的接收设备接收来自该部分发送设备的信号和/或信道时,不使用预留资源进行AGC操作。
本申请实施例中,集中调度设备通过第一指示配置多跳通信的发送设备与其当前跳的接收设备通信时,是否为向当前跳的接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。从而,参与多跳通信的发送设备根据第一指示,确定是否为向当前跳的接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,进而有利于减少当前跳的接收设备因预留资源进行AGC操作带来的资源开销。
六.通信方法400。
本申请实施例还提供了一种通信方法400,图13是该通信方法400的交互示意图。该通信方法400中,一个或多个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源,与一个或多个第五发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源存在重叠时,第一设备指示一个或多个发送设备,以及一个或多个第五发送设备在不同的频域资源上是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。从而,一个或多个发送设备,以及一个或多个第五发送设备可在不同频域资源上向接收设备发送信号和/或信道,且每个发送设备可根据第一指示确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。该通信方法400包括但不限于以下步骤:
S401.第一设备确定第一指示,第一指示用于指示一个或多个发送设备在第一频域资源上,是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
S402.第一设备确定第四指示,第四指示用于指示一个或多个第五发送设备在第二频域资源上,是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
可理解的,一个或多个发送设备,以及一个或多个第五发送设备均是向接收设备发送信号和/或信道的发送设备。
其中,一个或多个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,与一个或多个第五发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源存在重叠。
一个或多个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,与一个或多个第五发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源存在重叠,包括:一个或多个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源,与一个或多个第五发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道所占用的时域资源部分重叠,或者全部重叠。
一个或多个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源,与一个或多个第五发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源存在重叠时,第一设备指示一个或多个发送设备,以及一个或多个第五发送设备在不同的频域资源上是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。不同的频域资源可指包含不同的载波,或者包含不同的部分带宽(bandwidth part,BWP)。
从而,一个或多个发送设备,以及一个或多个第五发送设备可在不同的频域资源上,向接收设备发送信号和/或信道,且每个发送设备可根据第一指示确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留,即使得每个发送设备不是默认为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。进而,接收设备接收来自一个或多个发送设备,以及一个或多个第五发送设备中的每个发送设备的信号和/或信道时,也不是默认进行AGC操作,有利于减少接收设备使用预留资源进行AGC操作带来的资源开销。
另外,资源预留的实施方式可参见上述通信方法100中所述,不再赘述。
本申请实施例不限定S401和S402的执行顺序。例如,S401可在S402之前执行,也可在S402之后执行。
S403.第一设备发送第一指示。相应的,发送设备接收第一指示。
S404.第一设备发送第四指示。相应的,发送设备接收第四指示。
本申请实施例不限定S403和S404的执行顺序。例如,S403可在S404之前执行,也可在S404之后执行。
S405.发送设备根据第一指示,确定在第一频域资源上是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留;或者,根据第四指示,确定在第二频域资源上是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。
发送设备是在第一频域资源上向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,根据第一指示,确定在第一频域资源上是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。发送设备根据确定的结果,在第一频域资源上向接收设备发送信号和/或信道。
发送设备是在第二频域资源上向接收设备发送信号和/或信道时,即该发送设备是一个或多个第五发送设备中的任意一个时,根据第四指示,确定在第二频域资源上是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道上进行资源预留。发送设备根据确定的结果,在第二频域资源上向接收设备发送信号和/或信道。
可见,本申请实施例中,一个或多个发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源,与一个或多个第五发送设备向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道占用的时域资源存在重叠时,第一设备指示一个或多个发送设备,以及一个或多个第五发送设备在不同的频域资源上是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。从而,一个或多个发送设备,以及一个或多个第五发送设备可在不同频域资源上向接收设备发送信号和/或信道,且每个发送设 备可根据第一指示确定是否为向接收设备发送的信号和/或信道进行资源预留。进而,接收设备接收来自一个或多个发送设备,以及一个或多个第五发送设备中的每个发送设备的信号和/或信道时,不是默认进行AGC操作,有利于减少接收设备使用预留资源进行AGC操作带来的资源开销。
为了实现上述本申请实施例提供的方法中的各功能,第一设备和发送设备可以包括硬件结构和/或软件模块,以硬件结构、软件模块、或硬件结构加软件模块的形式来实现上述各功能。上述各功能中的某个功能以硬件结构、软件模块、还是硬件结构加软件模块的方式来执行,取决于技术方案的特定应用和设计约束条件。
