Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the present application is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
Fig. 1 is a schematic view of an application scenario of the link monitoring method according to the embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 1, the scenario includes a network device 100 and a UE200, and the network device 100 and the terminal 200 communicate through a network. The network device 100 may be a Base Transceiver Station (BTS) in Global System for Mobile communications (GSM) or Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), a Base Station (NodeB, NB) in Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), an evolved Node B (evolved Node B, eNB or eNodeB) in LTE, a relay Station or Access point, or a Base Station in a 5G network, and the like, which are not limited herein.
The UE200 may be a wireless terminal, which may refer to a device that provides voice and/or other traffic data connectivity to a user, a handheld device having wireless connection capability, or other processing device connected to a wireless modem. A wireless terminal, which may be a mobile terminal such as a mobile telephone (or "cellular" telephone) and a computer having a mobile terminal, e.g., a portable, pocket, hand-held, computer-included, or vehicle-mounted mobile device, may communicate with one or more core networks via a Radio Access Network (RAN), and may exchange language and/or data with the RAN. For example, devices such as Personal Communication Service (PCS) phones, cordless phones, Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) phones, Wireless Local Loop (WLL) stations, and Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) are used.
The technical solution of the present application will be described in detail below with specific examples. The following several specific embodiments may be combined with each other, and details of the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, a link monitoring method is provided, which is illustrated by applying the method to the UE in fig. 1, including
S101, determining whether the interval between the first radio link monitoring RLM resource and the second RLM resource in the time domain is larger than a threshold value; the first RLM resource and the second RLM resource are communication resources configured by the network side for periodically sending RLM signals, and the second RLM resource is a communication resource corresponding to the last RLM signal measured by the UE.
And S102, if so, the UE measures the RLM signal carried by the first RLM resource.
And if the interval between the first radio link monitoring RLM resource and the second RLM resource in the time domain is larger than the threshold value, the user equipment UE measures the RLM signal carried by the first RLM resource.
The RLM resource is a communication resource configured for the UE by the network side. The network side may send one or more RLM signals to the UE, where the RLM signals may be SSB signals, CSI-RS signals, and may also include SSB signals and CSI-RS signals, which is not limited herein. Different RLM signals correspond to different RLM resources, and the network side may configure a plurality of RLM resources for the UE. Taking UE accessing 5G network as an example, the number of RLM resources configured for UE by the network side may be referred to the following table:
carrier frequency range of a UE | Number of RLM resources |
FR1,≤3GHz | 2 |
FR1> |
4 |
FR2 | 8 |
FR1 is a frequency range smaller than 6GHz in the 5G system, and FR2 is a millimeter wave frequency range in the 5G system.
The network side may periodically transmit the same RLM signal to the UE, that is, the network side may configure, for the UE, an RLM resource for periodically transmitting the RLM signal and a transmission period corresponding to the RLM resource. The corresponding transmission periods of different RLM resources may be the same or different. The network side may configure RLM resource information to the UE through the RRC configuration information, where the RLM resource information may include a transmission period of each RLM resource, a start position of each RLM resource, and the like. For example, the network side configures X RLM resources for the UE, which are respectively denoted as { niI is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to X, and the sending period corresponding to the X RLM resources can be { T ≦ X }, wherei,1≤i≤X}。
For one of the RLM signals, the first RLM resource and the second RLM resource may be communication resources configured by the network side for periodically transmitting the RLM signal. After the UE receives the RLM signal in the second RLM resource and measures the RLM signal, the last measurement time of the RLM signal may be recorded as Mi,latest. The UE may be in Mi,latestFor reference, it is determined whether to measure the RLM signal carried in the first RLM resource. The UE measures the RLM signal, and may obtain the signal quality of the RLM signal, where the signal quality may be a signal-to-noise ratio of the RLM signal, or a signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio of the RLM signal, and is not limited herein.
In one implementation, the UE may determine the most recent measurement time M of the RLM signali,latestBased on the received RLM resource, the next RLM resource is determined according to the sending period of the RLM resource configured by the network sideTime M of second occurrence of first RLM resourcei,nextThen obtaining Mi,latestAnd Mi,nextThe time interval in between; if the time interval is greater than a preset threshold, the RLM signal carried in the first RLM resource may be measured. And if the interval between the first RLM resource and the second RLM resource in the time domain is not greater than the threshold value, the UE ignores the RLM signal carried in the first RLM resource.
In another implementation, after receiving the RLM signal in the first RLM resource, the UE may record the occurrence time of the second RLM resource as Mi,nextThen the last measurement moment M of the recorded RLM signal is obtainedi,latestThe last measured RLM signal may be carried in the second RLM resource. UE can obtain Mi,latestAnd Mi,nextThe time interval in between; if the time interval is greater than a preset threshold, the RLM signal carried in the first RLM resource may be measured. And if the interval between the first RLM resource and the second RLM resource in the time domain is not greater than the threshold value, the UE ignores the RLM signal carried in the first RLM resource.
The threshold may be related to a DRX cycle of the UE, and the threshold may be equal to or greater than the DRX cycle, which is not limited herein.
For multiple RLM resources configured on the network side, after a UE measures all of multiple RLM signals carried in the multiple RLM resources in one evaluation period, the UE reports a link status to an L3 layer of the UE through an L1 layer of the UE. Optionally, the terminal may measure an RLM signal carried by a part of the plurality of RLM resources configured on the network side. If the signal quality of each RLM signal is less than the first signal quality threshold Qout, the L1 layer of the UE may send an OOS indication to the L3 layer; if the signal quality of one of the RLM signals IS greater than the second signal quality threshold Qin, the L1 layer of the UE may send an IS indication to the L3 layer. The first signal quality threshold may be smaller than the second signal quality threshold, for example, the block error rate corresponding to the first signal quality threshold may be 10%, the block error rate corresponding to the second signal quality threshold may be 2%, and the larger the block error rate, the worse the signal quality.
After an L1 layer in the UE reports OOSs to an L3 layer, the UE may start a counter corresponding to the OOSs, and count the number of OOSs reported by an L1 layer; after the number of OOSs IS greater than the preset number threshold, the UE may trigger a timer (e.g., T310) to start timing, and if an IS indication reported by the L1 layer IS not received during the timing of the timer, it may determine that the current link status IS out-of-synchronization, and trigger link re-establishment.
In the above link monitoring method, if the time interval between the first radio link monitoring RLM resource and the second RLM resource is greater than the threshold, the UE measures the RLM signal carried by the first RLM resource; the first RLM resource and the second RLM resource are communication resources configured by the network side for periodically sending RLM signals, and the second RLM resource is a communication resource corresponding to the last RLM signal measured by the UE. The UE compares the time interval of the first RLM resource and the second RLM resource in the time domain with the threshold value, starts to measure the RLM signals carried by the first RLM resource under the condition that the time interval is larger than the threshold value, namely, the RLM signals periodically sent by the network side are screened according to the threshold value, and the RLM signals carried in partial RLM resources are selected to be measured, so that the times of awakening the UE in the dormancy period due to the measurement of the RLM signals in the wireless link monitoring can be reduced, and the power consumption of the UE is reduced.
In an embodiment, when the interval between the first radio link monitoring RLM resource and the second RLM resource in the time domain is greater than the threshold, the UE may determine the current communication state of the UE when measuring the RLM signal carried by the first RLM resource, and if the UE is in the discontinuous reception DRX state and the time domain range of the first RLM resource is within the DRX active period of the UE, the UE measures the RLM signal carried by the first RLM resource.
When the UE does not have data transmission, a receiving circuit of the UE can be closed to reduce power consumption, so that the endurance time of the battery is prolonged; based on this, the communication state of the UE may include a DRX state and a non-DRX state. In the DRX state, the UE may include an active period (On Duration) and a dormant period (Opportunity for DRX) in each DRX cycle, where the UE receives downlink data sent by the network side in the active period, and the UE does not receive the downlink data in the dormant period, as shown in fig. 3.
The time when the UE receives the RLM signal may be in a sleep period in the DRX cycle. The UE may determine a current communication state of the UE, and if the UE is in the DRX state and the time domain range of the first RLM resource is within the DRX active period of the UE, the UE measures an RLM signal carried by the first RLM resource.
If the UE is in the DRX state and the time domain range of the first RLM resource is within the sleep period of the UE, the UE may ignore the RLM signal carried by the first RLM resource and not perform measurement on the RLM signal.
And if the UE is in the non-DRX state, the UE measures the RLM signal carried by the first RLM resource.
As shown in fig. 4, when the UE measures the RLM signal carried in the second RLM resource (RLM resource a), the measurement time is time T1, and the first RLM resource is RLM resource B occurring at time T2, the time interval between time T2 and time T1 is less than the threshold, and the UE ignores the RLM signal carried in the RLM resource B; when the first RLM resource is an RLM resource C occurring at the time of T3, the time interval between the time of T3 and the time of T1 is smaller than a threshold value, and the UE ignores an RLM signal carried in the RLM resource C; when the first RLM resource is an RLM resource D occurring at time T4, and a time interval between time T4 and time T1 is greater than a threshold value, the UE transmits an RLM signal carried in the RLM resource D. Further, the UE may determine the time T4 as the measurement time at which the RLM signal is most recently measured, and when the RLM resource E occurs at the time T5, a time interval between the time T5 and the time T4 is smaller than a threshold value, and the UE ignores the RLM signal carried in the RLM resource E.
According to the link monitoring method, the UE measures the RLM signal carried by the first RLM resource in the activation period in the time domain range in the DRX state, and ignores the RLM signal carried by the first RLM resource in the dormancy period in the time domain range, so that the number of times of awakening the UE in the dormancy period due to the measurement of the RLM signal in the wireless link monitoring can be avoided, and the power consumption of the UE is reduced.
In one embodiment, the threshold value is determined according to the DRX cycle length and the transmission cycle of the RLM signal when the UE is in the DRX state. The threshold may be the maximum of the DRX cycle length and the transmission cycle of the RLM signalThe value may be a multiple of the DRX cycle length and the maximum value in the transmission cycle of the RLM signal, and is not limited herein. Optionally, the threshold values are a first preset threshold value, n1 times DRX _ cycle _ length, and n2 times TRLM,MWherein DRX _ cycle _ length is the DRX cycle length, TRLM,MAnd the minimum transmission period of the RLM signal configured for the network side. Wherein n1 and n2 are both greater than 1, optionally both n1 and n2 are 1.5. The first preset threshold is not greater than the reporting time interval of the link status, and optionally, the first preset threshold is not 10 ms.
In case that the UE is in the non-DRX state, the threshold value is determined according to a transmission cycle of the RLM signal. The threshold may be a transmission period of the RLM signal, or an average value of transmission periods of the RLM signals, which is not limited herein. Optionally, the threshold is a second preset threshold and n3 times TRLM,MIs of where TRLM,MA minimum sending period of the RLM signal configured for the network side; n3 is greater than 1; the second preset threshold is not greater than the reporting time interval of the link status. Optionally, n3 is 1, and the second preset threshold is 10 ms. The threshold value may be expressed as:
when the UE is in the DRX state, the threshold value is Max {10ms, 1.5 times DRX _ cycle _ length, 1.5 times TRLM,M};
When the UE is in a non-DRX state, the threshold value is Max {10ms, TRLM,M}。
According to the link monitoring method, the UE determines the threshold value according to the DRX cycle length, so that the probability that the first RLM resource meeting the threshold value requirement falls in the sleep period of the DRX cycle can be reduced, and the power consumption of equipment is reduced.
Fig. 5 is a schematic flow chart of a link monitoring method in an embodiment, which relates to a determination method of an RLM signal measured by a UE, and as shown in fig. 5, the method further includes:
s201, the UE selects a target RLM resource from a plurality of RLM resources configured on the network side according to the received power of the wave beam.
The beam may be a beam carrying the RLM signal, or may be a received power carrying other signals related to the RLM signal, which is not limited herein. Optionally, the beam may be a Reference beam, and the Reference beam may include a first beam carrying a synchronization Signal SSB and/or a second beam carrying a Tracking Reference Signal (TRS Signal).
The UE may track the reference beam with the maximum received power according to the received power of the beam. Further, the UE may determine the target RLM resource according to a coverage relationship between the communication resource corresponding to the reference beam with the largest received power and the plurality of RLM resources. The coverage relationship may be an inclusion relationship, or may be a relationship of whether an intersection exists, which is not limited herein.
The UE tracking range may be different for different types of reference beams. Optionally, the communication resource in the reference beam with the maximum received power may include a first communication resource corresponding to a first beam with the maximum received power, and/or a second communication resource corresponding to at least 4 second beams with the maximum received power.
The plurality of RLM resources include communication resources corresponding to different types of RLM signals. The different types of RLM signals may include a first type of SSB signal, and/or a second type of CSI-RS signal. The plurality of RLM resources may include SSB resources and/or CSI-RS resources, where the SSB resources are used for carrying the RLM signals of the first type and the CSI-RS resources are used for carrying the RLM signals of the second type.
In one implementation, the communication resource in the reference beam with the largest received power includes a first communication resource corresponding to a first beam with the largest received power. The RLM resource may include an SSB resource. When the UE determines the target RLM resource according to the received power of the beam, the UE may determine a coverage relationship between the first communication resource and the SSB resource. If the first communication resource is included in the SSB resource, the UE determines the first communication resource as a target RLM resource; if the first communication resource is not included in the SSB resource, the UE determines, as the target RLM resource, a communication resource that has a Quasi-Co-Location (QCL) relationship with the first communication resource among the SSB resources.
In another implementation manner, the communication resource in the reference beam with the largest received power includes second communication resources corresponding to at least 4 second beams with the largest received power. The RLM resource may include a CSI-RS resource. When the UE determines the target RLM resource according to the received power of the beam, the UE may determine a coverage relationship between the second communication resource and the CSI-RS resource. If the second communication resource and the CSI-RS resource have an intersection, the UE determines the communication resource corresponding to the intersection as a target RLM resource; and if the second communication resource does not have intersection with the CSI-RS resource, the UE determines the communication resource which has QCL relation with the second communication resource in the CSI-RS resource as the target RLM resource.
The QCL relationship means that if two signals are from the same beam or from the same antenna port, the two signals can be considered to have the QCL relationship.
If there is no target RLM resource satisfying the condition according to the coverage relation, the RLM signals corresponding to all RLM resources configured on the network side are measured, that is, all RLM resources are determined as the target RLM resources.
S202, for the RLM signal carried by the target RLM resource, if the time interval between the first RLM resource for radio link monitoring and the second RLM resource is greater than the threshold, performing a measurement on the RLM signal carried by the first RLM resource.
Upon determining the target RLM resource, the UE may perform the above step S101 for the RLM signal carried by the target RLM resource. For other RLM resources except for the target RLM resource in the plurality of RLM resources configured on the network side, the UE may not measure the RLM signals carried by the UE.
According to the link monitoring method, the UE selects the target RLM resource from the plurality of RLM resources configured on the network side and measures the target RLM signal carried by the target RLM resource, so that the link monitoring result can be determined after all the RLM signals configured on the network side are measured, the extreme speed complexity of link monitoring is reduced, and the power consumption of equipment is reduced; further, the UE selects a target RLM resource from the plurality of RLM resources according to the received power of the beam, so that the target RLM resource can meet the performance requirement for monitoring the radio link, and the power consumption of the device can be reduced while ensuring the performance of monitoring the link.
Fig. 6 is a schematic flowchart of a link monitoring method in an embodiment, where the embodiment relates to a manner in which a UE measures an RLM signal, and on the basis of the embodiment, as shown in fig. 6, the S101 includes:
s301, determining a frequency domain down-sampling rate according to the signal bandwidth of the RLM signal and the channel estimation result.
