Currently, the related standards organization is researching NTN technology, which generally provides communication services to terrestrial users by adopting a satellite communication mode. Satellite communications have many unique advantages over terrestrial cellular communication networks. First, satellite communications are not limited by the user region, for example, general land communications cannot cover areas where communication devices cannot be installed, such as oceans, mountains, deserts, etc., or communication coverage is not performed due to rarity of population, while for satellite communications, since one satellite can cover a larger ground, and the satellite can orbit around the earth, theoretically every corner on the earth can be covered by satellite communications. And secondly, satellite communication has great social value. Satellite communication can be covered in remote mountain areas, poor and backward countries or regions with lower cost, so that people in the regions enjoy advanced voice communication and mobile internet technology, and the digital gap between developed regions is reduced, and the development of the regions is promoted. Again, the satellite communication distance is far, and the cost of communication 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.
Communication satellites are classified into Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites, medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellites, geosynchronous Orbit (Geostationary Earth Orbit, GEO) satellites, high elliptical Orbit (High Elliptical Orbit, HEO) satellites, and the like according to the Orbit heights. LEO and GEO are the main studies at the present stage.
1、LEO
The low orbit satellite has a height ranging from 500km to 1500km and a corresponding orbit period of about 1.5 hours to 2 hours. The signal propagation delay for single hop communications between users is typically less than 20ms. The maximum satellite visibility time is 20 minutes. The signal propagation distance is short, the link loss is less, and the requirement on the transmitting power of the user terminal equipment is not high.
2、GEO
Geosynchronous orbit satellites have an orbit height of 35786km and a period of 24 hours around the earth. The signal propagation delay for single hop communications between users is typically 250ms.
In order to ensure the coverage of the satellite and improve the system capacity of the whole satellite communication system, the satellite adopts multiple beams to cover the ground, and one satellite can form tens or hundreds of beams to cover the ground; a satellite beam may cover a ground area of several tens to hundreds of kilometers in diameter.
There are at least two NTN networks: a transparent load (transparent payload) NTN network, as shown in fig. 1; the regeneration load (regenerative payload) NTN network is shown in fig. 2.
The NTN network consists of the following network elements:
1 or more network devices for connecting satellites to a terrestrial public network.
Feeder link: a link for communication between the gateway and the satellite.
Service link: a link for communication between a terminal and a satellite.
Satellite: the functions provided by the device can be divided into transmission load and regeneration load.
And the transparent load is that only the functions of wireless frequency filtering, frequency conversion and amplification are provided, only the transparent forwarding of signals is provided, and the forwarded waveform signals are not changed.
The regeneration load can provide demodulation/decoding, routing/conversion, encoding/modulation functions in addition to the functions of radio frequency filtering, frequency conversion and amplification. Which has some or all of the functionality of the base station.
Inter-Satellite Links (ISL): exists in a regenerative load scenario.
Before describing the technical scheme of the application, a few background technical knowledge related to the application is described.
1. Enhanced machine-type communication (enhanced Machine Type Communication, eMTC) and physical channels therefor
The MTC physical downlink control channel (MTC Physical Downlink Control Channel, MPDCH) is used for sending scheduling information, the enhanced physical downlink control channel (Enhanced Physical Downlink Control Channel, EPDCCH) design based on LTE R11 is used for receiving control information based on demodulation reference signals (Demodulation Reference Signal, DMRS), the functions of control information precoding, beamforming and the like are supported, one EPDCCH transmits one or more enhanced control channel resources (Enhanced Control Channel Element, ECCE), the aggregation level is {1,2,4,8,16,32}, and each ECCE is composed of a plurality of enhanced resource element groups (Enhanced Resource Element Group, EREG). The MPDCH maximum repetition number Rmax is configurable, and the value range {1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256}.
The eMTC physical downlink shared channel (Physical Downlink Shared Channel, PDSCH) is substantially the same as the LTE PDSCH channel, but with the addition of repetition and inter-narrowband hopping for improved PDSCH channel coverage and interference averaging. The eMTC terminal device may operate in two modes, modeA and ModeB: in Mode a, the number of uplink and downlink hybrid automatic repeat request (Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request, HARQ) processes is at most 8, and in this Mode, the number of PDSCH repetitions is {1,4, 16,32 }; in Mode B, the number of uplink and downlink HARQ processes is 2 at maximum, and in this Mode, the PDSCH repetition number is {4, 16, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048}.
The frequency domain resource format of the eMTC physical uplink control channel (Physical Uplink Control Channel, PUCCH) is the same as that of LTE, and supports frequency hopping and repeated transmission. Mode A supports the transmission of HARQ-ACK/NACK, scheduling request (Scheduling Request, SR) and channel state information (Channel State Information, CSI) on the PUCCH, namely, supports PUCCH format 1/1a/2/2a, and the number of supported repetition times is {1,2,4,8}; mode B does not support CSI feedback, i.e., only PUCCH format 1/1a is supported, the number of repetitions supported is {4,8,16,32}.
eMTC physical uplink shared channel (Physical Uplink Shared Channel, PUSCH) is the same as LTE, but the number of maximum Resource Blocks (RBs) that can be scheduled is limited to 6. The method supports two modes of Mode A and Mode B, the repetition number of Mode A can be {8, 16,32}, and the method supports at most 8 processes, and has higher speed; mode B covers a longer distance and the number of repetitions may be {192, 256, 384, 512, 768, 1024, 1536, 2048}, supporting a maximum of 2 HARQ processes upstream.
2. LTE discontinuous reception (Discontinuous Reception, DRX) procedure
In LTE, the network may configure a DRX function for the terminal device, so that the terminal device discontinuously monitors the PDCCH, so as to achieve the purpose of power saving of the terminal device. Each medium access control (Medium Access Control, MAC) entity has a DRX configuration, the configuration parameters of the DRX comprising:
-drx cycle: a DRX cycle;
-drx-onDurationTimer: a DRX duration timer;
-drx-StartOffset: the terminal equipment starts the time delay of drx-ondurationTimer;
-drx-inactivatytimer: a DRX inactivity timer;
-drx-retransmission timer: DRX downlink retransmission timer, each downlink HARQ process except broadcast HARQ process corresponds to a DRX-retransmission timer;
-drx-ulretransmission timer: and each DRX uplink retransmission timer corresponds to one DRX-ULRransmission timer.
If the terminal device is configured with DRX, the terminal device needs to monitor PDCCH during the DRX activation period. The DRX active period includes several cases:
any one of 7 timers, DRX-onduration timer, DRX-incarvitytimer, DRX-retransmission timer, DRX-ul retransmission timer, and mac-c-contentioresolution timer, is running.
-SR is sent on PUCCH/SPUCCH (Short PUCCH) and in a waiting (pending) state.
-in the contention-based random access procedure, the terminal device has not received one initial transmission of a Cell-radio network temporary identity (Cell-Radio Network Temporary Identifier, C-RNTI) scrambled PDCCH indication after successful reception of the random access response.
An uplink grant (UL grant) may be received for one pending HARQ retransmission and there is data in the HARQ buffer (buffer) of the synchronous HARQ process.
Uplink HARQ-ACK feedback (MPDCCH-UL-HARQ-ACK-FeedbackConfig) for MPDCCH is configured and is currently in repeated transmission within one bundle (bundle).
The terminal device decides the time for starting the DRX-onduration timer according to whether the terminal device is currently in a short DRX cycle (short DRX cycle) or a long DRX cycle (long DRX cycle), which is specifically defined as follows:
-1> if Short DRX Cycle is used, and the current subframe satisfies [ (system frame number (System Frame Number, SFN) ×10) +subframe number ] module (DRX-Short Cycle) = (drxStartOffset) module (DRX-Short Cycle); or alternatively
-1> if Long DRX Cycle is used, and the current subframe satisfies [ (sfn×10) +subframe number ] module (DRX-LongCycle) =drx-StartOffset;
-2> if NB-IoT (Narrow Band Internet of Things ), then:
-3> if there is at least one HARQ RTT Timer (HARQ RTT Timer) corresponding to the HARQ process or an uplink HARQ RTT Timer (UL HARQ RTT Timer) is not running, starting drx-onduration Timer.
-2> otherwise, drx-onDurationTimer is started.
The condition for starting or restarting the HARQ RTT Timer by the terminal equipment is as follows:
if the terminal device receives a PDCCH indicating downlink transmission, or if the terminal has configured downlink grant in the subframe, then:
a) If the terminal device is an eMTC terminal device, then:
a1 If the physical layer indicates that a plurality of Transport Block (TB) transmissions are scheduled, the terminal device starts a HARQ RTT Timer corresponding to a downlink HARQ process used by the PDSCH of each of the plurality of TBs in a subframe in which the last repeated transmission of the PDSCH of the last TB of the plurality of TBs is received.
a2 Otherwise, the terminal equipment starts the HARQ RTT Timer corresponding to the downlink HARQ process used by the PDSCH in the subframe where the last repeated transmission of the PDSCH is received.
b) Otherwise, starting the HARQ RTT Timer corresponding to the downlink HARQ process used by the PDSCH.
If the HARQ RTT Timer times out, then: if the data decoding of the HARQ process fails, the terminal device starts a DRX downlink retransmission timer (DRX-retransmission timer) corresponding to the downlink HARQ process.
The conditions for starting or restarting UL HARQ RTT Timer the terminal device are:
if the terminal device receives the PDCCH indicating an uplink transmission using an asynchronous HARQ process, or if the terminal device has a configured uplink grant for a certain asynchronous HARQ process in the subframe, or if the terminal device receives the PDCCH indicating an uplink transmission using an automatic HARQ process, then:
a) If mpdcch-UL-HARQ-ACK-FeedbackConfig is not configured, then:
a1 If the physical layer indicates that the plurality of TBs transmission is scheduled, the terminal device starts UL HARQ RTT Timer corresponding to the uplink HARQ process used by the PUSCH of each of the plurality of TBs in the subframe where the last retransmission of the PUSCH of the last TB of the plurality of TBs is completed.
a2 Otherwise, the terminal equipment starts UL HARQ RTT Timer corresponding to the uplink HARQ process used by the PUSCH in the subframe where the last repeated transmission of the PUSCH is completed.
b) If mpdcch-UL-HARQ-ACK-feedfeedback is configured and UL HARQ-ACK feedback is not received until the last repeated transmission of PUSCH, then:
b1 The terminal equipment starts or restarts the drx-ULRransmission timer corresponding to the uplink HARQ process used in the subframe where the last retransmission of the PUSCH is completed.
If UL HARQ RTT Timer corresponding to a certain uplink HARQ process is overtime, the terminal equipment starts the drx-ULRranspossessionTimer corresponding to the uplink HARQ process.
3. UL HARQ-ACK feedback (uplink HARQ-ACK feedback)
For eMTC terminal equipment with poor network coverage, more times of repeated transmission are required during physical channel transmission, for example 2048 times of repeated transmission are required during PUSCH transmission at Mode B in the worst case. The network device attempts decoding by repeating transmission one by one when receiving PUSCH, that is, the network device does not start decoding after receiving the entire 2048 repeated transmissions, so that the network device may successfully receive PUSCH after receiving a part of repeated transmissions. In order to reduce the power consumption of the full duplex (capable of receiving and transmitting simultaneously) eMTC terminal equipment, the network equipment can feed back an uplink HARQ-ACK feedback as early as possible, so that the eMTC terminal equipment can stop subsequent PUSCH repeated transmission in time after receiving, and the purpose of energy saving is achieved.
In LTE systems, for the use of uplink HARQ-ACK feedback, one of the purposes is to terminate PUSCH transmissions and the other is to terminate MPDCCH listening. The former corresponds to the network device receiving a successful PUSCH with partial retransmission (repetition), and the latter corresponds to the network device successfully receiving the PUSCH of all HARQ processes. In the ground network, the time of the network equipment responding to the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback mainly considers the processing time delay after the terminal equipment finishes the PUSCH transmission, which is usually several milliseconds and is larger than the RTT of the signal transmission between the terminal equipment and the network, namely the network can respond to the subsequent scheduling of the terminal equipment according to the uplink receiving condition in the processing time.
Compared with the traditional ground cellular network, the signal propagation delay between the terminal equipment and the network in the NTN is greatly increased, and the RTT is far longer than the terminal processing time considered in the existing ground network standard, so that a new problem is also provided for an uplink HARQ-ACK feedback mechanism. For example, the network successfully receives the PUSCH after receiving part of the retransmission, however, when the network responds to the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback, the RTT is too long, and the terminal device may end PUSCH transmission (i.e. all the retransmission) after receiving the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback, and at this time, the behavior of the terminal device needs to be defined.
In the embodiment of the application, aiming at the characteristic of larger wireless signal transmission delay between terminal equipment and a network in an NTN system, a response mode for uplink HARQ-ACK feedback is provided, and under the condition that the terminal equipment receives the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback fed back by the network equipment, the response mode for the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback is determined based on a time difference, wherein the time difference is the difference between the first time point when the terminal equipment receives the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback and the second time point when the terminal equipment repeatedly transmits the uplink transmission, the behavior of the terminal equipment is clarified, and the time difference is considered when the terminal equipment responds to the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback, so that the terminal equipment can respond to the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback correctly based on the time difference.
The technical scheme of the application is described and illustrated by the following examples.
Referring to fig. 3, a flowchart of an information processing method according to an embodiment of the application is shown. The method can be applied to a terminal device in the communication system shown in fig. 1 or fig. 2. The method may comprise the steps of:
step 302, the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback is responded based on a time difference, which is a difference between a first time point when the terminal device receives the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback and a second time point when the terminal device receives the last repeated transmission of the uplink transmission.
In the present application, the uplink transmission supports retransmission (retransmission), i.e., the uplink transmission is repeated for the same uplink transmission. The terminal equipment determines a response mode to the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback based on a time difference value between a first time point of the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback sent by the receiving network equipment and a second time point of the last repeated transmission of the uplink transmission, wherein the first time point is a time point which is not earlier than the second time point in a time domain position. For example, a first point in time being a point in time that is not earlier than a second point in time domain position may be understood as the first point in time being after the second point in time domain position; it is also understood that the first point in time is identical in time domain position to the second point in time. The second time point may be understood as a starting time of the last retransmission of the uplink transmission, may be understood as an intermediate time of the last retransmission of the uplink transmission, and may be understood as an ending time of the last retransmission of the uplink transmission.
In the related art, the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback is mainly directed to the following usage scenarios: first, a scenario is aimed at a network that uplink HARQ-ACK feedback is sent after uplink transmission is successfully received by using partial retransmission. Secondly, the method aims at the scene that the network successfully receives the uplink transmission of all uplink HARQ processes and then sends uplink HARQ-ACK feedback.
Optionally, the time difference is used to assist the terminal device in determining a usage scenario of uplink HARQ-ACK feedback, and further, the terminal device responds to the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback based on the determined usage scenario of uplink HARQ-ACK feedback.
Optionally, the uplink transmission includes: PUSCH.
Optionally, the repeated transmission corresponds to a number of repetitions. For example, for Mode a type of uplink transmission, the number of repetitions supported by the uplink transmission is {8, 16, 32}. For example, for a ModeB type of uplink transmission, the number of repetitions supported by the uplink transmission is {192, 256, 384, 512, 768, 1024, 1536, 2048}.
Alternatively, the last retransmission refers to a retransmission closest to the first time point in time domain among the retransmissions that have completed the uplink transmission.
For example, the number of repetitions of PUSCH is 8, when the terminal device has already sent the 3 rd repetition transmission and has received the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback when the 4 th repetition transmission has not yet been sent, the last repetition transmission refers to the 3 rd repetition transmission, and the corresponding time difference refers to the difference between the first time point when the terminal device receives the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback and the second time point when the terminal device sends the 3 rd repetition transmission.
For example, the number of repetitions of PUSCH is 8, and when the terminal device receives the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback when the 8 th repetition transmission has been sent, the last repetition transmission refers to the 8 th repetition transmission, and the corresponding time difference refers to the difference between the first time point when the terminal device receives the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback and the second time point when the terminal device sends the 8 th repetition transmission.
Optionally, the terminal device comprises at least one of the following types of terminal devices: eMTC terminal equipment; low capability terminal equipment.
Optionally, the resources used by the terminal device to send the uplink transmission include: resources corresponding to uplink transmission of a first asynchronous HARQ process indicated by a physical downlink control channel PDCCH received by a terminal device; or, the terminal equipment has the resources corresponding to the configured uplink grant for the second asynchronous HARQ process; or, the terminal equipment receives the resource corresponding to the uplink transmission of the automatic HARQ process indicated by the PDCCH.
In summary, the method provided in this embodiment provides a response manner for uplink HARQ-ACK feedback, where the terminal device determines, based on a time difference, a response manner for uplink HARQ-ACK feedback when receiving uplink HARQ-ACK feedback fed back by the network device, where the time difference is a difference between a first time point when the terminal device receives uplink HARQ-ACK feedback and a second time point when uplink transmission is repeated last time, and determines a behavior of the terminal device, and because when the terminal device responds to the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback, regarding to a characteristic that a signal transmission delay between the terminal device and the network side in the NTN system is greatly increased, the time difference is considered, so that the terminal device can correctly respond to the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback based on the time difference is ensured.
In an exemplary embodiment, the terminal device responds to the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback based on the magnitude of the value between the time difference and the RTT.
Optionally, the terminal determines a usage scenario of uplink HARQ-ACK feedback based on a value between the time difference and RTT, and responds to the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback based on the usage scenario of the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback.
In the following, the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback is mainly directed to the following usage scenarios: first, a scenario is aimed at a network that uplink HARQ-ACK feedback is sent after uplink transmission is successfully received by using partial retransmission. Second, an exemplary description is made with respect to a scenario in which the network successfully receives uplink transmissions of all uplink HARQ processes and then transmits uplink HARQ-ACK feedback.
(1) The time difference is smaller than RTT, and the method aims at the scene that the network sends uplink HARQ-ACK feedback after the uplink transmission is successfully received by using partial repeated transmission.
The time when the terminal device receives the feedback of the uplink HARQ-ACK is less than RTT from the time of the last retransmission of the uplink transmission, which represents that the network device successfully decodes the uplink transmission by using partial retransmission (repetition), where the network device acts as a subsequent retransmission that expects to terminate the uplink transmission through the feedback of the uplink HARQ-ACK.
Alternatively, step 301 is alternatively implemented as step 301a: and stopping the rest repeated transmission of the uplink transmission when the time difference is smaller than the RTT and the repeated transmission of the uplink transmission is not finished.
Alternatively, step 301 is alternatively implemented as step 301b: and stopping the DRX uplink retransmission timer corresponding to the HARQ process of the uplink transmission when the time difference value is smaller than the RTT and the repeated transmission of the uplink transmission is ended.
Optionally, the repeated transmission of the uplink transmission corresponds to the number of repetitions, and the fact that the repeated transmission of the uplink transmission has not ended indicates that: the number of repeated transmissions of the uplink transmission which is sent by the terminal equipment is smaller than the number of repeated transmissions; the repeated transmission of the uplink transmission has ended is that: the number of repeated transmissions of the uplink transmission which is sent by the terminal equipment is equal to the number of repeated transmissions; the remaining repeated transmissions of the uplink transmission refer to: and subtracting the repeated transmission of the uplink transmission which is finished by the terminal equipment from the repeated transmission of the uplink transmission in the repeated times of the uplink transmission, and the rest repeated transmission.
For example, when the number of repetitions of the uplink transmission is 8, the time difference is smaller than RTT, and the terminal device has sent the 1 st to 6 th repetition, the terminal device stops the remaining 7 th and 8 th repetition.
For example, the number of repetitions of the uplink transmission is 8, and when the time difference is smaller than RTT and the terminal device has sent the 8 th repetition, the terminal device stops the DRX uplink retransmission timer corresponding to the HARQ process of the uplink transmission.
That is, when the time difference is smaller than RTT, the usage scenario representing uplink HARQ-ACK feedback is a scenario in which the network uses partial retransmission to successfully receive uplink transmission and then send uplink HARQ-ACK feedback, and at this time, the network device is expected to terminate subsequent retransmission of the uplink transmission through uplink HARQ-ACK feedback, if the retransmission of the uplink transmission has not yet ended, the remaining retransmission of the uplink transmission is stopped, and if the retransmission of the uplink transmission has ended and a DRX uplink retransmission timer corresponding to the HARQ process of the uplink transmission is running, the DRX uplink retransmission timer corresponding to the HARQ process that is running is stopped, so as to achieve the purpose of energy saving of the terminal device.
Optionally, after a third time point, the terminal device starts a DRX uplink retransmission timer corresponding to the HARQ process of the uplink transmission, where the third time point is a time point when the terminal device has sent the last retransmission of the uplink transmission; or after a fourth time point, the terminal equipment starts a DRX uplink retransmission timer corresponding to the HARQ process of the uplink transmission, wherein the fourth time point is one time point after the third time point.
Optionally, RTT is a value obtained by rounding one of the following parameters:
RTT value between terminal equipment and access network equipment;
a Timing Advance (TA) value of the terminal device;
RTT value between the terminal device and the satellite;
the sum of RTT value and network processing time between the terminal equipment and the access network equipment;
the sum of the TA value of the terminal equipment and the network processing time;
the sum of RTT between the terminal device and the satellite and network processing time.
Optionally, the network processing time includes access network device processing time and/or satellite processing time.
Alternatively, rounding is either up or down.
Alternatively, the rounding is in milliseconds.
Optionally, the network processing time is carried in at least one of the following signaling: a system message; radio resource control (Radio Resource Control, RRC) dedicated signaling; MAC Control Element (CE); downlink control information (Downlink Control Information, DCI).

In summary, in the method provided in this embodiment, when the time difference is smaller than RTT, the usage scenario representing uplink HARQ-ACK feedback is a scenario in which the network uses partial retransmission to successfully receive uplink transmission and then send uplink HARQ-ACK feedback, and at this time, the network device is expected to terminate subsequent retransmission of the uplink transmission through uplink HARQ-ACK feedback, if the retransmission of the uplink transmission has not yet ended, the remaining retransmission of the uplink transmission is stopped, and if the retransmission of the uplink transmission has ended and a DRX uplink retransmission timer corresponding to the HARQ process of the uplink transmission is running, the DRX uplink retransmission timer corresponding to the HARQ process that is running is stopped, so as to achieve the purpose of energy saving of the terminal device.
(2) The time difference is larger than RTT, and the scene of sending uplink HARQ-ACK feedback after the network successfully receives the uplink transmission of all uplink HARQ processes is aimed at.
The time when the terminal equipment receives the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback is greater than RTT from the time when the terminal equipment receives the latest retransmission of the uplink transmission, which represents that the network equipment receives the repeated transmission of the uplink transmission of all uplink HARQ processes including the uplink transmission and successfully decodes all the uplink transmission, and at the moment, the network equipment acts as a retransmission scheduling monitor for expecting to terminate all the HARQ processes through the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback.
Alternatively, step 301 is alternatively implemented as step 301c: and if the time difference value is larger than the RTT, stopping the DRX uplink retransmission timers corresponding to all the HARQ processes of the terminal equipment.
That is, when the time difference is greater than RTT, the usage scenario representing uplink HARQ-ACK feedback is a scenario in which the network successfully receives uplink transmissions of all uplink HARQ processes and then sends the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback, and at this time, the network device is expected to terminate retransmission scheduling monitoring of all HARQ processes through the uplink HARQ-ACK feedback, so that the terminal device stops DRX uplink retransmission timers corresponding to all HARQ processes, so as to achieve the purpose of energy saving of the terminal device.
Optionally, after a third time point, the terminal device starts a DRX uplink retransmission timer corresponding to the HARQ process of the uplink transmission, where the third time point is a time point when the terminal device has sent the last retransmission of the uplink transmission; or after a fourth time point, the terminal equipment starts a DRX uplink retransmission timer corresponding to the HARQ process of the uplink transmission, wherein the fourth time point is one time point after the third time point.
