Detailed Description

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail and completely with reference to the following specific embodiments of the present application and the accompanying drawings. It should be apparent that the described embodiments are only a few embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments in the present application without making any creative effort belong to the protection scope of the present application.

The invention provides a discontinuous reception feedback timing method and equipment, which are applied to side link communication. The method is mainly characterized in that a receiving terminal acquires a channel listening duration related configuration parameter of a sending terminal, and associates a drx-HARQ (hybrid automatic repeat request) cycle time timer which is received discontinuously with the channel listening duration of the sending terminal.

The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a side-link communication receiving terminal timer in the prior art.

In the existing edge link communication, if a technology similar to discontinuous reception between a terminal and a base station is applied, when the terminal does not successfully detect a data packet and needs to wait for Retransmission of the data packet, an HARQ process for receiving and detecting the data packet needs to start a drx-HARQ cycle time timer (drx-HARQ-RTT-timer), and after the timer expires, a drx Retransmission timer (drx-Retransmission-timer) is started, and when the drx Retransmission timer works, the terminal is in an active state to prepare for receiving and detecting the retransmitted data packet. For example, as shown in fig. 1, assuming that side link SL communication is taken as an example, the SL transmitting terminal UE _ TX transmits data to the receiving terminal UE _ RX, and UE _ RX is not successfully detected, and when the corresponding feedback information SFCI is NACK, first, a drx-HARQ cycle time timer is started, and after the timer expires, a drx retransmission timer is started to receive and detect retransmission data. The duration parameter of the drx-HARQ cycle time timer is related to the transmission delay between the receiving terminal and the transmitting terminal, and the delay from the transmitting terminal receiving the HARQ feedback information to transmitting the retransmitted data packet.

Fig. 2 (a) is a schematic diagram of a transmitting terminal selecting a retransmission resource to transmit a retransmission data packet according to the prior art, and fig. 2 (b) is a schematic diagram of a transmitting terminal transmitting a retransmission data packet after channel sensing according to the prior art. In the side link communication, when a transmitting terminal operates in a mode of autonomously selecting resources and retransmission resources are not reserved after HARQ feedback, the retransmission resources need to be reacquired through channel sensing. The time for acquiring retransmission resources in different channel sensing modes is different. When the listening mode in (a) is adopted, the sending terminal triggers retransmission resource selection after receiving the NACK feedback, and directly selects retransmission resources in the subsequent resource selection window, and at this time, the channel listening duration for the sending terminal to acquire the retransmission resources may not be considered in the configuration parameters of the drx-HARQ cycle time timer. And when the interception mode in (b) is adopted, the sending terminal triggers retransmission resource selection after receiving NACK feedback, and selects retransmission resources in a resource selection window after experiencing channel interception time length (TS), and at the moment, the channel interception time length TS for the sending terminal to acquire the retransmission resources needs to be considered in configuration parameters of a drx-HARQ cycle time timer. No specific solution for designing drx-HARQ cycle time timer in side link communication exists in the prior art

FIG. 3 is a flow chart of an embodiment of the method of the present invention.

The application provides a discontinuous reception feedback timing method, which is applied to side link communication, when a receiving terminal receives discontinuously and feedback information SFCI of the receiving terminal is NACK, a first timer (for example, a drx-HARQ cycle time timer) is started, when the first timer is overtime, a second timer (for example, a drx retransmission timer) is started, and the receiving terminal listens to a retransmission data packet during the starting period of the second timer. In the method, the duration of a first timer is associated with the channel listening duration of a sending terminal, and the method specifically comprises the following steps:

step 101, a receiving terminal obtains a channel listening duration related configuration parameter of a sending terminal.

Specifically, in this step, the channel sensing duration related configuration parameters at least include the following parameters: and sending the channel sensing mode and/or the first time length of the terminal.

The channel sensing mode of the sending terminal comprises full sensing (full sensing), random selection (random selection), partial sensing (partial sensing), continuous partial sensing (continuous partial sensing) and the like. The full sensing is that the transmitting terminal is in a state of continuous channel sensing at other time except for the time when the transmitting terminal needs to transmit data. The random selection, i.e. the sending terminal, does not directly select the data transmission resources by listening. The partial interception selects resources associated with the candidate resources for the transmitting terminal to perform channel interception. The persistent part listens for the terminal to trigger the selection of resources and then listens for the first duration and then selects transmission data transmission resources.

The first time length is the continuous partial listening time length. Further, random selection and persistent partial sensing may be used as a channel sensing method, that is, random selection may be regarded as a specific persistent partial sensing with a first duration of 0.

The full interception and the partial interception can also be applied in combination with the continuous partial interception, that is, the terminal adopts a full interception or partial interception mode before triggering resource selection, and continuously intercepts for a first time after triggering resource selection and then selects transmission data transmission resources.

The method for the receiving terminal to obtain the relevant configuration parameters of the channel listening duration of the sending terminal comprises at least one of the following methods or a combined method of the following methods: and sending a terminal notification, a base station notification and a system default configuration. In the sending terminal notification mode, the sending terminal may specifically send the sending terminal to the receiving terminal by carrying the relevant configuration parameters of the channel sensing duration of the sending terminal through the PSCCH or the PSCCH. In the base station notification mode, the base station may specifically send the configuration parameters related to the channel sensing duration of the terminal to the receiving terminal through the PDCCH or PDSCH bearer. In the default configuration mode of the system, the configuration parameters related to the listening duration of the channel of the sending terminal can be specifically configured in a mode of writing through equipment according to protocol convention. When the default configuration of the system and the terminal notification are simultaneously supported, the terminal notification is sent as the basis.

Further, the channel listening mode of the sending terminal and the corresponding listening duration related configuration parameter may be bound to the transmission priority and/or the transmission resource pool parameter, and when the receiving terminal learns the current service transmission priority or the resource pool used for transmission, the channel listening mode of the sending terminal and the corresponding listening duration related configuration parameter may be learned.

102, the receiving terminal starts a corresponding timer according to the channel interception mode of the sending terminal under the discontinuous reception.

Specifically, in this step, when the receiving terminal starts the first timer under discontinuous reception, the value of the first timer is related to the channel listening duration of the transmitting end in step 101. The first timer is a drx-HARQ cycle time timer, and is used for starting a second timer when the timer is overtime, and the receiving terminal listens for the retransmitted data packet during the starting period of the second timer.

Specifically, the specific method for the first timer value to be related to the channel listening duration of the sending terminal may be different under the limiting condition that the sending terminal sends the retransmission data packet and the receiving terminal receives the retransmission data packet.

The duration of the first timer is one of the following duration values:

a first time length T1, which is the time length for carrying out channel interception when the sending terminal triggers resource selection;

That is, one of the following duration values is selected as the duration of the first timer:

T1，T2，T3，T4。

preferably, the duration of the timer is selected according to one of the following rules:

optionally, the embodiment of the present application may further include the following steps:

and step 103, configuring a new interception time length.

And adjusting the value of the first duration, specifically, comparing the first duration with the third duration and the fourth duration, respectively, and adjusting the value of the first duration according to a comparison result so that the first duration is not less than at least one of the third duration and the fourth duration.

For example,

the first duration is configured to be max (T1, T3), that is, when the third duration is longer than the original first duration, the first duration may be adjusted to be the third duration. Alternatively, the first and second electrodes may be,

the first duration is configured to be max (T1, T4), i.e. when the fourth duration is longer than the original first duration, the first duration may be adjusted to be the fourth duration. Alternatively, the first and second liquid crystal display panels may be,

the first time length is configured to be max (T1, T3, T4), that is, when the fourth time length or the third time length is longer than the original first time length, the first time length may be adjusted to be the maximum value between the third time length and the fourth time length, that is, max (T3, T4).

It should be noted that step 102 and step 103 of this embodiment have no order relationship. Steps 101-103 may alternatively be performed in a loop.

It should be further noted that, when the values of the third duration and the fourth duration are used to adjust the first duration, the method for determining the first timer duration in step 102 in this application is equivalent to:

the duration of the first timer is one of the following duration values:

the second duration T2 is a time interval between the retransmission resource and the PSFCH resource fed back with the HARQ at the previous time.

Wherein the value of the first duration is not less than at least one of the third duration and the fourth duration.

Preferably, the duration of the timer may be selected according to the following rule: min (T1, T2).

Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of starting a timer according to a first duration.

Example 1: when a transmitting terminal receives NACK feedback and needs to retransmit data, the transmitting terminal directly listens a channel to select retransmission resources to transmit the retransmission data; and it is not limited that the receiving terminal can still start the second timer to listen to the retransmitted data packet in the non-activated state of the discontinuous reception configuration when the receiving terminal receives the retransmitted data packet in the activated state of the discontinuous reception configuration. At this time, the first timer configuration duration is the first duration.

Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of starting a timer according to a second duration.

Further, if the transmitting terminal already reserves retransmission resources for the retransmission data fed back by NACK, it is assumed that the second duration is an interval between the retransmission resources and the PSFCH resources fed back by the previous HARQ. The first timer configuration duration is a second duration, or is a minimum value of the second duration and the first duration, namely min (the first duration and the second duration). In this example, the first timer is configured to have a second duration.

Fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of starting a timer according to a third duration.

Example 2: when a transmitting terminal receives NACK feedback to retransmit data, the transmitting terminal directly monitors a channel to select retransmission resources to transmit the retransmitted data; and the receiving terminal is limited to receive the retransmission data packet in the activation state of the discontinuous reception configuration, namely the receiving terminal can start the second timer to listen to the retransmission data packet in the activation state of the discontinuous reception configuration.

The third duration is assumed to be a time interval between the PSFCH resource fed back by the HARQ of the receiving terminal and an active state of the discontinuous reception configuration after the resource.

At this time, the first timer configuration duration is the maximum value between the first duration and the third duration, i.e., max (T1, T3). Further, if the transmitting terminal reserves retransmission resources for the retransmission data fed back by the NACK, the first timing configuration duration is the second duration, or min (max (T1, T3), T2). Further optionally, the first duration may be configured to be max (T1, T3), that is, when the third duration is longer than the original first duration, the first duration may be adjusted to be the third duration.

Fig. 7 is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of starting a timer according to a fourth duration.

Example 3: when a sending terminal receives NACK feedback and needs to retransmit data, the sending terminal is configured to work in a DRX state, and the sending terminal needs to send the retransmitted data in a DRX activation state; the receiving terminal is not limited to receive the retransmitted data packet in the activated state of the discontinuous reception configuration, that is, the receiving terminal can still start the second timer to listen to the retransmitted data packet in the inactivated state of the discontinuous reception configuration.

The fourth duration is assumed to be a time interval between the PSFCH resource for the transmitting terminal to receive the HARQ feedback and an active state of the discontinuous reception configuration after the resource.

At this time, the first timer configuration duration is the maximum value between the first duration and the fourth duration, i.e., max (T1, T4). Further, if the transmitting terminal reserves retransmission resources for the retransmission data fed back by the NACK, the first timing configuration duration is the second duration, or min (max (T1, T4), T2). Further optionally, the first duration may be configured to be max (T1, T4), that is, when the fourth duration is longer than the original first duration, the first duration may be adjusted to be the fourth duration.

Example 4: when a sending terminal receives NACK feedback and needs to retransmit data, the sending terminal is configured to work in a DRX state, and the sending terminal needs to send the retransmitted data in a DRX activation state; and the receiving terminal is limited to receive the retransmission data packet in the activated state of the discontinuous reception configuration, namely the receiving terminal can start the second timer to listen to the retransmission data packet in the activated state of the discontinuous reception configuration.

At this time, the first timer configuration time period is the maximum value among the first time period, the third time period and the fourth time period, i.e., max (T1, T3, T4). Further, if the transmitting terminal has reserved retransmission resources for the retransmission data fed back by the NACK, the first timing configuration duration is a second duration, or min (max (T1, T3, T4), T2). Further optionally, the first time period may be configured to be max (T1, T3, T4), that is, when the fourth time period or the third time period is longer than the original first time period, the first time period may be adjusted to be the maximum value between the third time period and the fourth time period, that is, max (T3, T4).

Further optionally, if the retransmission has reached the maximum retransmission number configured by the system, or the retransmission data exceeds the delay limit, the receiving terminal may choose not to start the first timer and the second timer, i.e. not to prepare to receive the retransmission data
