Description
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种通信方法及装置。
伴随长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)和第五代(5th generation,5G)通信技术的发展,窄带物联网(narrowband internet of things,NB-IoT)、增强机器类型通信(enhanced machine type communication,eMTC)技术也得到了长足的发展。NB-IoT和eMTC的终端设备具有低复杂度、低成本、低功耗、低带宽的特点,适用于广泛的物联网场景。例如,智能水表、智能电表、智能家居、智慧城市等。目前,5G中新无线轻量接入技术(new radio-Light,NR-Light)和降低能力(reduced capability,REDCAP)的接入技术赢得广泛讨论和关注,其为适应5G的发展而产生,需要具备NB-IoT、eMTC终端设备的特点。
为满足低复杂度、低成本等需求,这类终端设备不支持常规终端设备的小区切换功能。例如,如图1所示,常规终端设备在从小区1移动到小区2过程中,一般会在位置A发生切换过程,这时小区2的信号一般比小区1的信号好3dB。而对于低复杂度、低成本的这类终端设备,由于其不支持切换,会在小区1的边缘B位置因为信号变差而发生无线链路失败(radio link failure,RLF),然后通过无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)连接重建过程重建到小区2。这样,会导致这类终端设备不能及时重建到小区2,而当这类终端设备重建到小区2时,小区2的信号比小区1的信号好很多,即这类终端设备在小区1边缘与小区1进行通信需要消耗更多的功率和无线资源。

在一种可选的实施方式中,所述信道状态信息可以通过以下三种方式发送:
方式a1、所述信道状态信息是通过信道质量报告的媒体接入控制层控制单元(media access control control element,MAC CE)发送的。
示例性的,表1和表2为信道质量报告的MAC CE及对应子头的结构示意图示例。具体的,如表1和表2中所示的所述信道质量报告的MAC CE及对应子头中可以包括逻辑信道标识(logical channel identify,LCID)字段、质量报告(quality report)字段、保留比特R。
在一种可能的实施方式中,所述信道质量报告的MAC CE中的quality report字段用于指示所述信道状态信息。具体的,当LCID字段的值为10001时,所述MAC CE传输的内容为下行信道质量报告(downlink channel quality report)。也就是说,当LCID字段的值为10001时,MAC CE及对应子头的结构可以如表1或表2所示,此时可以通过MAC CE中的质量报告(quality report)字段来指示信道质量或所述信道状态信息。例如,可以通过所述quality report字段来指示信道状态变差,网络设备接收到MAC CE后可以确定终端设备的信道状态,并根据信道状态进一步调度终端设备。
表1
表2
其中,所述quality report的取值如下表3所示:
表3
quality report比特(bits) | value(值) |
0000 | noMeasurements(没有测量) |
0001 | candidateRep-A(候选重复次数) |
0010 | candidateRep-B |
0011 | candidateRep-C |
0100 | candidateRep-D |
0101 | candidateRep-E |
0110 | candidateRep-F |
0111 | candidateRep-G |
1000 | candidateRep-H |
1001 | candidateRep-I |
1010 | candidateRep-J |
1011 | candidateRep-K |
1100 | candidateRep-L |
1101 | 信道状态信息 |
1110 | Reserved(保留) |
1111 | Reserved |
表3示出了quality report取值与value值的对应关系。
需要说明的是,表3中的value列,是quality report的不同取值分别对应的值,取不同的值标识不同含义;例如,当前的表3中所示,当quality report的取值为0001-1100时,分别对应的是不同的候选重复次数,在表3中仅以candidateRep-A到candidateRep-L示例,具体的值本申请不限定。在表3给出的示例中,通过quality report的取值(也即表3中quality report bits列的比特)为1101来指示所述信道状态信息,当然quality report的取值仅是一种示例,还可以使用quality report的取值为0000、1110或1111来指示所述信道状态信息,本申请对此不作限定。例如,可以通过quality report的取值为1101来指示信道状态变差,也就是将“quality report的取值为1101”作为信道状态较差指示(bad channel status indication,BCSI),所述信道状态信息可通过不同的取值来指示上述提到的信道状态信息指示的含义,本申请不做限定。
在另一种可能的实施方式中,所述信道质量报告的MAC CE中的预留字段用于指示所述信道状态信息。具体的,如上述说明,当LCID字段的值为10001时,MAC CE及对应子头的结构如表1或表2所示,此时可以通过MAC CE中的R字段来指示信道状态信息。例如,预定义第一个R字段来指示提前进行邻区测量。网络设备接收到MAC CE后可以确定终端设备的信道状态,并根据信道状态进一步调度终端设备。在此实施例中,R字段可以与quality report字段共用,例如第一个R字段用于指示信道质量变差,同时quality report用于指示重复次数,提高通信效率。
方式a2、所述信道状态信息是通过缓存状态报告(buffer status report,BSR)的MAC CE发送的。
示例性的,表4为BSR MAC CE及对应子头的结构示意图示例。具体的,如表4所示,所述BSR MAC CE及对应子头可以包括LCID字段、缓存数据尺寸(buffer size)字段、逻辑信道组标识(logical channel group identity,LCG ID)字段、R、F2、E字段。
在一种可能的实施方式中,所述BSR MAC CE中的缓存数据尺寸(buffer size)为特定值时用于指示所述信道状态信息。
具体的,如表4所示BSR MAC CE及对应子头的结构中,当LCID为11101,LCG ID 为00时,buffer size为特定值0时用于指示所述信道状态信息。
表4
在一种可选的实施方式中,当所述终端设备未配置释放辅助信息激活指示(rai-Activation)时,可以通过buffer size的取值为特定值0或其它值来指示所述信道状态信息。例如,可以通过buffer size的取值为0来指示需要进行邻区测量。这样可以通过这种方式使所述网络设备基于该指示获知终端设备提前进行邻区测量,避免网络设备盲目调度终端设备造成的资源浪费。
在一种可选的实施方式中,在步骤3033存在时,当所述终端设备在确定满足预设条件之后向网络设备发送信道状态信息时,终端设备可以通过buffer size为特定值0或其它值来指示所述信道状态信息。例如,可以通过buffer size的取值为0来指示即将进入RLF。这样可以通过这种方式使所述网络设备基于该指示获知终端设备提前进行邻区测量,避免网络设备盲目调度终端设备造成的资源浪费。
在一种可能的实施方式中,所述BSR MAC CE中的LCG ID为特定值时用于指示所述信道状态信息。
具体的,如表4所示BSR MAC CE及对应子头的结构中,当LCID字段的值为11101时,LCG ID字段的值为特定值01或10或11等时用于指示所述信道状态信息。例如,LCG ID字段的值为01时可以指示信道状态变差;又例如,LCG ID字段的值为10时可以指示需要进行邻区测量;又例如,LCG ID字段的值为11时可以指示即将进入RLF。当然,上述举例仅仅是一种示例,还有其它可能的指示情况,本申请对此不作限定。这样可以通过这种方式使所述网络设备基于该指示获知终端设备提前进行邻区测量,避免网络设备盲目调度终端设备造成的资源浪费。
在一种可能的实施方式中,所述BSR MAC CE中的LCG ID为特定值且buffer size为特定值时用于指示所述信道状态信息。
具体的,如表4所示BSR MAC CE及对应子头的结构中,当LCID字段的值为11101时,LCG ID为特定值01或10或11或其它值且buffer size为特定值0或其它值时用于指示所述信道状态信息。例如,LCG ID为01且buffer size为0时可以指示信道状态变差;又例如,LCG ID为10且buffer size为0时可以指示需要进行邻区测量;又例如,LCG ID为11且buffer size为0时可以指示即将进入RLF。当然还可以有其它情况,此处不再一一列举。这样可以通过这种方式使所述网络设备基于该指示获知终端设备提前进行邻区测量,避免网络设备盲目调度终端设备造成的资源浪费。
方式a3、所述信道状态信息是通过MAC分组数据单元(packet data unit,PDU)子头(sub-header)发送的。
示例性的,表5、表6为MAC子头的结构示意图示例。具体的,如表5所示,MAC PDU子头可以包括LCID字段、R字段、F2字段、E字段;如表6所示,MAC PDU子头可以包括LCID字段、R字段、F2字段、E字段、F字段、L字段。
在一种可能的实施方式中,所述MAC PDU子头中的R字段用于指示所述信道状态信息。
例如,如表5所示的MAC PDU子头的结构中,R为1时可以用于指示信道状态变差。 这样可以通过这种方式使所述网络设备基于该指示获知终端设备提前进行邻区测量,避免网络设备盲目调度终端设备造成的资源浪费。
在另一种可能的实施方式中,所述MAC PDU子头中的F2字段用于指示所述信道状态信息。
例如,如表5所示的MAC PDU子头的结构中,F2为1时可以用于指示需要进行邻区测量。这样可以通过这种方式使所述网络设备基于该指示获知终端设备提前进行邻区测量,避免网络设备盲目调度终端设备造成的资源浪费。
在又一种可能的实施方式中,所述MAC PDU子头中的LCID字段用于指示所述信道状态信息。
表5
R | F2 | E | LCID |
在一种可能的实施方式中,所述MAC PDU子头中的F字段用于指示所述信道状态信息。
例如,如表6所示的MAC PDU子头的结构中,F为1时可以用于指示即将进入RLF。这样可以通过这种方式使所述网络设备基于该指示获知终端设备提前进行邻区测量,避免网络设备盲目调度终端设备造成的资源浪费。

在一种可选的实施方式中,所述邻区测量指示可以是网络设备通过以下三种方式发送的:
方式d1、所述邻区测量指示可以通过触发下行信道质量报告的MAC CE发送的,其中,可以通过下行信道质量报告的MAC CE中的LCID为特定值时指示所述邻区测量指示。例如,表7所示的下行信道质量报告的MAC CE的结构中,可以通过对当前标准定义LCID为10001新增用于指示所述邻区测量指示的功能(也就是说LCID为10001时可以按照当前标准预定义的指示内容,也可以同时指示邻区测量),或者可以通过其他比特值,例如当前标准中未被定义的数值(例如预留数值),来指示所述邻区测量指示,本申请对此不作限制。这样通过上述方式使所述终端设备接收到所述邻区测量指示后进行邻区测量,从而可以获知候选重建小区的信道状态情况,以便于在RLF时快速重建。
表7
R | F2 | E | LCID |
方式d2、所述邻区测量指示可以通过MAC PDU子头发送,其中,可以通过MAC PDU子头中的LCID为特定值时指示所述邻区测量指示。例如,表8所示的MAC PDU子头的 结构中,当LCID为特定值01011或01111或其他比特值时用于指示所述邻区测量指示。这样通过上述方式使所述终端设备接收到所述邻区测量指示后进行邻区测量,从而可以获知候选重建小区的信道状态情况,以便于在RLF时快速重建。
表8
R | F2 | E | LCID |
