Description

User equipment, method, equipment and system for network equipment communication
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method, an apparatus, and a system for communications between a user equipment and a network device.
Background
In the non-terrestrial communication network (Non Terrestrial Network, NTN) technology under study by the existing third generation partnership project (3 rd Generation Partnership Project, 3GPP for short), NTN generally provides communication services to terrestrial users by means of satellite communication. Compared with the ground cellular network communication, the satellite communication is not limited by the user region, has larger social value, namely, can be covered in remote mountain areas, poor countries or regions with lower cost, so that people in the regions enjoy advanced voice communication and mobile internet technology, and is beneficial to reducing the digital gap of developed regions and promoting the development of the regions; the satellite communication distance is long, and the communication cost is not obviously increased when the communication distance is increased; and finally, the satellite communication has high stability and is not limited by natural disasters.
Among them, communication satellites are classified into Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites, medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellites, geosynchronous Orbit (Geostationary Earth Orbit) satellites, high elliptic Orbit (High Elliptical Orbit, HEO) satellites, and the like according to the difference of Orbit heights. LEO and GEO are the main studies at the present stage.
In 5G communication (NR), in the existing mechanism, if a transmission time timer (drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL) corresponding to a certain hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) of a terminal is timed out and downlink data transmitted using the HARQ process is not successfully decoded, the terminal starts a retransmission timer (drx-retransmission TimerDL) corresponding to the HARQ process.
If the network sets the HARQ feedback functions of all HARQ processes of a certain User Equipment (UE) to be in an on state, and meanwhile, the number of uplink/downlink transmission opportunities available to the UE in the Round Trip Time (RTT) Time between the network and the UE is greater than the number of uplink/downlink HARQ processes available to the UE, a situation that the uplink/downlink HARQ processes are blocked occurs, that is, all the uplink/downlink HARQ processes of the UE are used and are in the RTT timer running period, and at this Time, the network does not have any available HARQ process even if it expects to schedule uplink/downlink transmission of the UE.
When the RTT timer corresponding to the first used HARQ process expires, for uplink HARQ, the UE starts a discontinuous reception uplink retransmission timer corresponding to the uplink HARQ process, so that the UE may enter a discontinuous reception Active Time (DRX Active Time), and thus the UE may monitor a physical downlink control channel (Physical Downlink Control Channel, abbreviated PDCCH) scheduled by the network. For downlink HARQ, the UE will start the discontinuous reception downlink retransmission timer corresponding to the downlink HARQ process only if the UE feeds back "non-acknowledgement" (NACK) for the downlink HARQ process, and will not start the discontinuous reception downlink retransmission timer corresponding to the downlink HARQ process if the UE feeds back "acknowledgement" (ACK) for the downlink HARQ process. Thus, even if the network expects to schedule downlink transmission of the UE, and downlink HARQ processes are available to the UE, it is necessary to wait until the UE starts an activation timer (DRX-onduration timer) on the next DRX cycle to schedule the UE. Especially if the HARQ blocking time is Long, the UE will often switch to a Long discontinuous reception period (Long DRX cycle) due to the short period timer (DRX-short cycle timer) time out caused by Long non-scheduled. Thus, the UE needs to wait longer to start DRX-ondurationtimer (duration of UE wake-up at the beginning of one DRX Cycle) to enter DRX Active Time.
Aiming at the problem that in the prior art, after the situation of the hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process blockage is recovered to the available HARQ process, the user equipment needs to wait for a long time to restart the discontinuous reception continuous timer so as to monitor the PDCCH indicating the scheduling, which results in overlong downlink scheduling delay, no effective solution has been proposed at present.

Fig. 1 is a flow chart of a method for user equipment communication according to a first embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, on the user equipment side, the method includes the following steps:
step S102, user equipment receives an indication instruction sent by network equipment;
in an optional embodiment, during a communication process of the ue, the ue receives an instruction sent by the network device, where the instruction is used to instruct the ue to enter a state of monitoring a physical downlink control channel (Physical Downlink Control Channel, abbreviated PDCCH) when a transmission time timer corresponding to a specified downlink hybrid automatic repeat request process expires in a case that the downlink hybrid automatic repeat request process is blocked;
the user device may be a terminal device with a wireless communication function, such as a smart phone (for example, a mobile phone using an Android system or a mobile phone of an IOS system), a tablet computer, a smart wearable device (for example, an Augmented Reality (AR) device, a Virtual Reality (VR) device, or a smart watch); the network device may be a server for supporting communication services.
Step S104, under the condition that the downlink hybrid automatic repeat request process is blocked and the time-out of the transmission time timer corresponding to the appointed downlink hybrid automatic repeat request is determined, the user equipment monitors the physical downlink control channel according to the indication signaling.
In an alternative embodiment, based on the indication instruction sent by the network device and received by the user device in step S102, when the user device detects that a transmission Time timer (DRX-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL) corresponding to the specified downlink hybrid automatic repeat request (Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request, abbreviated as HARQ) is timed out, the user device enters discontinuous reception Active Time (DRX Active Time) according to the indication instruction, and monitors the PDCCH, so as to avoid the problem that in the prior art, when the downlink HARQ process is blocked, the user device needs to wait for a long Time in the process of recovering from the downlink HARQ process blocking to the available HARQ process, and the problem of excessively long downlink scheduling delay is caused.
The method for User Equipment communication provided by the embodiment of the application can be applied to a Non-terrestrial communication network (Non-Terrestrial Network, abbreviated as NTN) system, wherein when the HARQ feedback function of all downlink HARQ processes of the User Equipment is in an on state, the User Equipment immediately or quickly enters a discontinuous reception activation Time (DRX-Time) under the condition that the downlink HARQ processes are blocked (i.e., all downlink HARQ processes corresponding to transmission Time timers (DRX-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL) are in an operation state and no idle downlink HARQ processes can be used for downlink transmission), so that the network Equipment instructs the User Equipment (User Equipment, abbreviated as UE) to immediately or quickly enter a discontinuous reception activation Time (DRX-Time) after the transmission Time timer (DRX-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL) corresponding to the first downlink HARQ is overtime, thereby enabling the UE to monitor a physical downlink control channel (Physical Downlink Control Channel, abbreviated as PDCCH) and reducing service delay.
Optionally, the specifying the transmission time timer corresponding to the downlink hybrid automatic repeat request includes: and a transmission time timer corresponding to the first downlink hybrid automatic repeat request after the downlink hybrid automatic repeat request process is blocked occurs.
In the embodiment of the application, the user equipment receives the indication instruction sent by the network equipment; under the condition that the downlink hybrid automatic repeat request process is blocked and the overtime of the transmission time timer corresponding to the specified downlink hybrid automatic repeat request is determined, the user equipment monitors the physical downlink control channel according to the indication signaling, so that the purpose of reducing the downlink scheduling time delay is achieved, the technical effect of improving the communication efficiency is achieved, and the technical problem that the downlink scheduling time delay is overlong because the user equipment needs to wait for a long time to restart the discontinuous reception continuous timer after the process of the hybrid automatic repeat request HARQ is restored to the available HARQ process under the condition that the process of the hybrid automatic repeat request HARQ is blocked in the prior art is solved.
In an alternative implementation manner, the method for communication of the user equipment provided by the embodiment of the present application is as follows:
In the process of implementing the method for user equipment communication provided by the embodiment of the application, the method can be implemented by three implementation modes, wherein the three implementation modes comprise:
mode one: after the network equipment indicates the UE to overtime the transmission Time timer corresponding to the first downlink HARQ, the UE enters into the DRX Active Time;
mode two: after the network equipment indicates that the transmission Time timer corresponding to the first downlink HARQ is overtime, the UE starts a first timer, and the UE is in DRX Active Time during the operation of the first timer;
mode three: the network device instructs the UE to switch to a short discontinuous reception period (short DRX cycle) after the transmission time timer corresponding to the first downlink HARQ expires.
Through the three implementation modes, the UE can enter the DRX Active Time immediately or as soon as possible when recovering from the downlink HARQ blocking state, so that the UE can monitor the PDCCH, and service delay is reduced.
Optionally, the ue receives radio resource control configuration information sent by the network device, where the radio resource control configuration information includes: the communication parameters of discontinuous reception and the configuration parameters of the downlink hybrid automatic repeat request process; wherein, the feedback function of the hybrid automatic repeat request of all downlink hybrid automatic repeat request processes of the user equipment is in an on state.
In an alternative embodiment, before receiving the indication instruction sent by the network device, the ue further receives radio resource control configuration information (Radio Resource Control, abbreviated as RRC) sent by the network device, and based on the above three implementations, the RRC corresponding to the three implementations in the received RRC is also different, which is specifically as follows:
in the first mode: the RRC information includes: communication parameters of discontinuous reception (relevant parameters for configuring DRX) and configuration parameters of a process of a downlink hybrid automatic repeat request (configuration parameters of a process of downlink HARQ), wherein,
the configuration parameters of the downlink HARQ process include: a Long discontinuous reception period (Long DRX cycle), an active timer (DRX-onduration timer), an inactive timer (DRX-incapacity timer), a transmission time timer (DRX-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL), and a retransmission timer (DRX-retransmission TimerDL), wherein DRX is Discontinuous Reception, i.e., discontinuous reception.
The configuration parameters of the downlink HARQ process include: the number of downlink HARQ processes and the HARQ feedback function of all the downlink HARQ processes are configured to be in an on state.
In the second mode: the RRC information includes: communication parameters for discontinuous reception (relevant parameters for configuring DRX), configuration parameters for a process for downlink hybrid automatic repeat request (configuration parameters for a process for downlink HARQ), and a first timer, wherein,
The configuration parameters of the downlink HARQ process include: long DRX cycle, DRX-onduration timer, DRX-InactivityTimer, DRX-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL, DRX-retransmission TimerDL.
The configuration parameters of the downlink HARQ process include: the number of downlink HARQ processes and the HARQ feedback functions of all the downlink HARQ processes are configured to be in an on state;
a first timer is configured, the first timer included in the DRX configuration.
In a third mode: the RRC information includes: long DRX cycle, short-term discontinuous reception cycle (Short DRX cycle), short cycle timer (DRX-Short cycle timer), DRX-onduration timer, DRX-incaivitytimer, DRX-HARQ-RTT-timer dl, DRX-retransmission timer dl, etc.;
the configuration parameters of the downlink HARQ process include: the number of downlink HARQ processes and the HARQ feedback function of all the downlink HARQ processes are configured to be in an on state.
Based on the RRC information of the above three implementations, when the transmission time timer of the downlink hybrid automatic repeat request process expires under the condition that the downlink hybrid automatic repeat request process is blocked, the ue enters the discontinuous reception activation time according to the instruction, and monitors the physical downlink control channel specifically as follows:
In a first mode, after the network device indicates that the transmission Time timer corresponding to the first downlink HARQ process is overtime, the UE enters DRX Active Time specifically as follows:
optionally, in the case that it is determined that the downlink hybrid automatic repeat request process is blocked, and it is determined that the transmission time timer corresponding to the specified downlink hybrid automatic repeat request is overtime, the user equipment monitoring the physical downlink control channel according to the indication signaling includes:
step1, under the condition that the downlink hybrid automatic repeat request process is determined to be blocked and the transmission time timer corresponding to the appointed downlink hybrid automatic repeat request after the downlink hybrid automatic repeat request process is determined to be blocked is overtime, the user equipment enters discontinuous reception activation time according to the indication signaling so as to monitor the physical downlink control channel.
In an alternative implementation, as shown in fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a method for controlling a UE in a method for communicating with a UE according to an embodiment of the present application, where in a case where a downlink HARQ process is blocked (i.e. "downlink hybrid automatic repeat request process blocking" in the embodiment of the present application), if the network device desires to schedule the UE as early as possible after having a downlink HARQ process that can be used, the UE may be instructed to enter DRX Active Time immediately after a transmission Time timer corresponding to the 1 st downlink HARQ expires.
For the UE with the HARQ feedback function of all downlink HARQ processes in the on state, the network device instructs the UE to enter discontinuous reception activation Time (DRX Active Time) after a transmission Time timer (DRX-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL) corresponding to a certain downlink HARQ (i.e., the first downlink HARQ in the embodiment of the present application) is overtime through an instruction, that is, the UE listens to the PDCCH.
The UE receives an indication instruction of the network equipment, wherein the indication instruction instructs the UE to enter into DRX Active Time after the DRX-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL corresponding to the first downlink HARQ is overtime.
The indication instruction may be a downlink MAC control element (MC Control Element, abbreviated MAC CE) or a PDCCH indicating downlink or uplink scheduling.
The indication instruction is appointed to take effect only once, namely after the UE receives the indication instruction, DRX-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL corresponding to the first downlink HARQ enters into DRX Active Time when timeout occurs for the first Time.
The embodiment of the application provides two business scenes:
business scenario one: for physical downlink shared channel (Physical Downlink Shared Channel, abbreviated PDSCH) transmissions of dynamic scheduling indications:
step 1: when the UE receives the PDCCH and instructs PDSCH transmission using a certain downlink HARQ process, the UE stops a retransmission timer (drx-retransmission timer dl) corresponding to the downlink HARQ process.
Step 2: after completing the transmission of the ACK/NCAK feedback for this downlink transmission, the UE starts a transmission time timer (drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL) corresponding to the downlink HARQ process.
Step 3: if the drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL corresponding to the downlink HARQ process is overtime and the feedback of the UE for the current downlink transmission is NACK, the UE starts the drx-retransmission TimerDL corresponding to the downlink HARQ process.
Step 4: if the network equipment indicates that the UE enters the DRX Active Time after the DRX-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL corresponding to the first downlink HARQ process is overtime, and the current downlink HARQ process is the first downlink HARQ process, the UE enters the DRX Active Time after the DRX-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL corresponding to the downlink HARQ process is overtime.
Business scenario two: for PDSCH transmissions occurring on configured downlink grants:

3. Since the UE feeds back an ACK for all of the 4 PDSCH transmissions, the UE does not start the drx-retransmission timer dl corresponding to each HARQ ID after the drx-HARQ-RTT-timer dl corresponding to the HARQ ID times out.
4. And the network equipment indicates the UE to switch to the short DRX cycle after the DRX-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL corresponding to the HARQ ID 0 is overtime in 4 PDCCHs sent to the UE.

In the embodiment of the application, when the user equipment is blocked in the downlink hybrid automatic repeat request process, after the transmission Time timer corresponding to the specified downlink hybrid automatic repeat request process is overtime, the state of entering the monitoring physical downlink control channel according to the instruction command can be realized in any one of the first mode to the third mode, wherein the difference between the second mode and the first mode is that the first timer is set in the second mode, the physical downlink control channel is monitored during the operation of the first timer, so that the user equipment is not in the DRX Active Time for a long Time, but releases the DRX Active Time after the timing of the first timer is finished, and the user equipment stops monitoring the PDCCH after the timing of the first timer is finished on the power consumption of the user equipment, so that the power consumption of the user equipment is reduced, and the technical effect of saving electricity is achieved. Similarly, in the technical solution of the third mode, the situation that the ue needs to wait a long time to restart the discontinuous reception duration timer to monitor the PDCCH indicating the scheduling after the prior art recovers from the situation of process blocking of the HARQ to the available HARQ process is avoided, but the ue enters the short-term discontinuous reception period according to the indication instruction when the transmission time timer corresponding to the first downlink HARQ process is overtime.
