Description

一种设备直通***中继状态确定方法及装置 技术领域
本申请涉及但不限于无线通信技术领域。
背景技术
随着无线多媒体业务的发展,人们对高数据速率和用户体验的需求日益增长,从而对传统蜂窝网络的***容量和覆盖提出了较高要求。另一方面公共安全、社交网络、近距离数据共享、本地广告等应用场景使得人们对了解附近人或事物并与之通信的需求逐渐增加。传统的以基站为中心的蜂窝网络在高数据速率以及邻近服务的支持方面存在明显的局限性,在这种需求背景下,代表未来通信技术发展新方向的D2D(Device-to-Device,设备到设备或称设备直通)技术应运而生。D2D技术的应用,可以减轻蜂窝网络的负担、减少用户设备的电池功耗、提高数据速率,并改善网络基础设施的鲁棒性,很好地满足上述高数据速率业务和邻近服务的要求。目前D2D技术又称之为邻近服务(Proximity Services,ProSe),单边链路(Sidelink,SL)。
D2D技术可以工作在授权频段或非授权频段,允许多个支持D2D功能的用户设备(即D2D用户设备,D2D User Equipment,D2D UE)在有网络基础设施或无网络基础设施的情况下进行直接发现和/或直接通信。D2D的应用场景主要有三种:
1)UE1和UE2在蜂窝网络的覆盖下进行数据交互,用户面数据不经过网络基础设施,如图1的场景1;
2)在弱覆盖区域或无覆盖区域的UE中继传输,如图1中的场景2,允许信号质量较差的UE4通过附近有网络覆盖的UE3与网络进行通信,能帮助运营商扩展覆盖、提高容量;
3)在发生地震或紧急情况,蜂窝网络不能正常工作的情况下,允许设备间直接通信,如图1中的场景3,UE5,UE6和UE7间控制面和用户面都不经过网络基础设施而进行一跳或多跳的数据通信。
D2D技术通常包括D2D发现技术和D2D通信技术,其中,D2D发现技术是指用于判断或确定第一用户设备是否邻近第二用户设备的技术。通常,D2D用户设备间可通过发送或接收发现信号(发现信息)来发现对方;D2D通信技术是指D2D用户设备之间部分或全部通信数据可以不通过网络基础设施而直接进行通信的技术。
对于图1中的场景2对应的UE到网络中继(UE-to-Network Relay)场景,所述UE3可以和网络侧使用已有LTE方式通讯,同时还可以作为中继与覆盖外(out of coverage)的终端(图示中的UE4)使用D2D方式通讯,这些方式包括D2D发现(Discovery)和/或D2D通讯(communication)。如果覆盖外或是信号较差的终端UE4通过覆盖内的终端UE3将数据发送给基站,那么我们称呼UE4为远端用户(Remote UE),UE3为中继用户(Relay UE)。类似的,对于场景3对应的UE-to-UE Relay场景,UE6可在UE5和UE7之间转发数据包,则UE6可称之为中继用户,而UE5和UE7可称之为远端用户。
相关技术并未对场景2和场景3中继传输模式中继状态机制给出***完善的解决方案。

在一个实施例中,所述装置还包括上报模块,设置为:在所述状态确定模块32确定中继UE的中继状态后,向基站上报所述中继UE的中继状态。
下面结合应用示例对上述实施例方法进行进一步说明。在下文中,将中继第一状态称为中继非活动状态,将中继第二状态称为中继活动状态。
具备中继能力的UE可以在没有远端用户接入时进入非活动状态,当接收到远端用户发送的发现中继的D2D信息之后才进入中继活动状态,周期性的广播中继信息,由此可以实现中继UE节电的目的。
中继UE可以处于两种状态:中继活动状态和中继非活动状态。如图4所示,当周围没有远端UE时,中继UE进入中继非活动状态,在中继非活动状态,中继UE仅仅周期性的醒来在中继发现接收资源上监听是否有远端UE发送的发现中继的D2D信息(例如寻找中继请求消息),如果有,则中继UE发送发现中继响应D2D信息给远端UE。之后中继UE等待远端UE发送的连接建立请求,如果收到该消息,则中继UE发送连接建立消息给远端 UE,从而与远端UE建立连接。与此同时中继UE进入中继活动态。除此之外,中继UE也可以在接收到远端UE发送发现中继的D2D信息之后立即进入中继活动状态。
中继UE进入中继活动状态后,中继UE可在转发远端UE的数据包的同时,周期性的广播发送中继信息,等待更多的远端UE听到消息后接入。中继UE可以维护一个中继活动状态定时器,当中继UE为远端UE转发数据包或是接收到有远端UE发送的接入请求或是已接入中继UE的远端UE发送的D2D发现信息时,重启该定时器,如果该定时器超时,则中继UE认为已接入的远端UE都处于非活动状态,因此中继UE可发起释放与远端UE的连接,进入中继非活动状态。除此之外,中继UE还可为每个接入的远端UE设置一个活动状态定时器,每当收到来自远端UE的数据包或发现消息,或是向远端UE发送数据包时就重启对应于该远端UE的活动状态定时器。当远端UE对应的活动状态定时器超时,中继UE释放掉本地保存的远端UE的上下文。中继UE还可在远端UE的活动状态定时器超时时,向所述远端UE发送发现远端UE的D2D信息或是寻呼信息,如果在预定时间内接收不到远端UE发送的响应信息,则所述中继UE释放与所述远端UE的连接。此外中继UE也有可能收到远端UE发送的连接释放信息,当收到该消息后,中继UE重置远端UE对应的活动状态定时器,并释放远端UE的上下文。此外当有高优先级的远端UE或是更高ARP(Allocation and Retention Priority,分配和保留优先级)的承载要求建立时,中继UE可向低优先级的可被抢占资源的远端UE主动发消息请求释放连接。当中继UE释放掉所有的远端UE的PC5连接时,中继UE回到中继非活动状态,不再周期性的发送中继消息以及监听中继数据接收资源,此时仅仅周期性的监听是否有远端UE发送的发现中继的D2D信息。
以下通过应用示例给出中继节电方法及相关的信令流程。
应用示例1
Officer A,B分别使用具备D2D功能的UE1,UE2。UE1处于有网络覆盖状态,而UE2处于无网络覆盖。本示例描述基站(eNB)配置中继节点使 能节电的流程。处于有网络覆盖的UE1有兴趣成为中继节点,为无覆盖的UE提供中继服务,如UE1对成为UE-to-network relay感兴趣。如图5所示,包括以下步骤:
步骤501,UE1可发送D2D中继信息给基站,其中包括对relay的兴趣指示,以及UE当前的位置信息;
步骤502,基站接收到UE1发送的D2D中继信息并选择UE1作为中继节点,则基站向UE1发送中继配置信息,本例中为UE-to-network relay(UE到网络中继)配置建立信息;
中继配置信息可包含以下信息中的一种或多种:中继发现资源或资源池信息,中继通信资源或资源池信息,中继功能的激活指示,中继功能的去激活指示,中继节电使能指示,中继节电禁止指示,中继活动状态定时器,远端UE活动状态定时器等。在本例中,中继配置信息至少包含中继功能的激活指示以及中继节电使能指示。
中继通信资源或资源池信息用于中继UE与远端UE的通信,其中包括中继通信发送资源或资源池信息,以及中继通信接收资源池信息。中继发现资源或资源池信息用于中继UE发现远端UE,其中包括中继发现发送资源或资源池信息,以及中继发现接收资源池信息。其中,中继发现发送资源或资源池信息包括有覆盖D2D发现发送资源或资源池信息,和/或,无覆盖D2D发现发送资源池信息,中继发现接收资源池信息包括有覆盖D2D发现接收资源池信息以及无覆盖D2D发现接收资源池信息。有覆盖D2D发现接收资源池信息包括中继UE服务或驻留小区的D2D发现发送资源以及中继UE服务或驻留小区的邻区对应的D2D发现发送资源。
除了专有RRC(Radio Resource Control,无线资源控制)信令,UE1还可从基站广播消息中接收中继资源池配置信息。此外,UE1还可以从ProSe function(近距离服务功能,用于D2D配置、授权认证的网元实体,位于核心网)接收的中继配置信息或是UE1预配置中继配置信息。
步骤503,UE1收到激活中继功能的中继配置信息,则UE1启动中继功能,如果配置信息指示使能中继节电,则UE1进入中继非活动状态。
应用示例2
Mary,John和Peter分别持有具备D2D通信及中继功能的UE1、UE2和UE3。UE1和UE2彼此在D2D通信范围内,UE2和UE3彼此在D2D通信范围内,而UE1和UE3彼此不在D2D通信范围内。本示例描述基站配置中继节点去使能节电的流程。假设基站配置UE2成为UE-to-UE中继,如图6所示,包括以下步骤:
步骤601,基站向UE2发送中继配置信息,本例中为UE-to-UE relay(UE到UE中继)配置建立信息;
中继配置信息可包含以下信息中的一种或多种:中继发现资源或资源池信息,中继通信资源或资源池信息,中继功能的激活指示,中继功能的去激活指示,中继节电使能指示,中继节电禁止指示,中继活动状态定时器,远端UE活动状态定时器等。在本例中,中继配置信息至少包含中继功能的激活指示以及中继节电禁止指示。
中继通信资源或资源池信息用于中继UE与远端UE的通信,其中包括中继通信发送资源或资源池信息,以及中继通信接收资源池信息。中继发现资源或资源池信息用于中继UE与远端UE的发现,其中包括中继发现发送资源或资源池,以及中继发现接收资源池信息。中继发现发送资源或资源池信息包括有覆盖D2D发现发送资源或资源池信息,和/或,无覆盖D2D发现发送资源池信息,中继发现接收资源池信息包括有覆盖D2D发现接收资源池信息以及无覆盖D2D发现接收资源池信息。有覆盖D2D发现接收资源池信息包括中继UE服务小区(或称驻留小区)的D2D发现发送资源池以及中继UE服务小区的邻区对应的D2D发现发送资源池。
除了专有RRC信令,UE2还可从基站广播消息中接收中继资源池配置信息。此外,UE2还可以从ProSe function接收的中继配置信息或是UE2预配置中继配置信息。
步骤602,UE2收到中继配置信息后,如果配置信息指示激活中继功能并且禁止中继节电,则UE2进入中继活动状态。
应用示例3
Officer A,B分别使用具备D2D功能的UE1,UE2。UE1处于有网络覆盖状态,而UE2处于无网络覆盖。本示例描述中继UE从中继非活动状态进入中继活动状态的流程。处于有网络覆盖的UE1有兴趣成为中继节点,为无覆盖的UE提供中继服务。假设基站选择UE1作为中继节点,如图7所示,包括以下步骤:
步骤701,基站向UE1发送设备直通中继配置信息,UE1收到中继配置信息后,如果配置信息指示激活中继功能并且使能中继节电,则UE1执行中继功能并进入中继非活动状态;
步骤702,中继UE1在中继发现接收资源池上监听远端UE发送发现中继的D2D信息;
中继UE1根据中继配置信息包含的中继非活动状态监听周期,监听帧和/或子帧偏移,监听持续时长等信息监听中继发现接收资源池上远端UE发送的D2D发现信息。在非中继发现接收资源池对应的子帧上,UE1无需监听对应的子帧。
步骤703,远端UE2发送发现中继的D2D信息;
此时处于无覆盖状态的远端UE2希望找到中继UE连接到网络传输信息,则UE2首先监听中继发现接收资源池,判断附近是否有中继UE发送的D2D中继广播信息。如果能接收到中继UE发送的中继广播信息,则远端UE2选择一个中继UE,并向选中的中继UE发送中继连接建立请求。假设UE2此时接收不到中继UE发送的中继广播信息,则远端UE2发送发现中继的D2D信息。
远端UE2发送的发现中继的D2D信息可包括以下内容的部分或全部:发现中继指示,远端UE的标识、远端UE的类型,远端UE寻找的中继类型,远端UE的通信目标标识,远端UE的通信组标识,远端UE的优先级等。
步骤704,中继UE1接收到远端UE2发送发现中继的D2D信息,并根 据消息内容判断UE2正在寻找中继UE,则UE1进入中继活动状态;
步骤705,中继UE1使用中继发现发送资源或从中继发现发送资源池随机选择资源向远端UE2发送中继响应D2D信息;
中继响应D2D信息可包括以下内容的部分或全部:中继标识、中继类型、中继服务小区标识,中继可用时段、中继所属组标识,中继移动状态指示、中继PLMN信息,中继禁止状态指示等。
步骤706,UE2收到中继UE1发送的中继响应D2D信息,UE2向中继UE1发送中继连接建立请求,中继UE1接收到远端UE2发送的中继连接建立请求,则中继UE1向远端UE2发送中继连接建立信息,UE2就接入到了中继UE1。
如果UE2同时收到多个中继UE发送的中继响应D2D信息,则UE2选择一个中继UE并向选中的中继UE发送中继连接建立请求。
UE2接入到中继UE1后,中继UE1后续可在中继通信接收资源池上接收UE2发送的D2D通信信息,使用中继通信发送资源或从中继通信发送资源池随机选择资源向远端UE2发送D2D通信信息。中继UE1还可接收已接入的UE发送的D2D发现信息,以及尚未接入的其他远端UE发送的连接建立请求信息以及发现中继UE的D2D信息。已接入中继UE1的远端UE(即已经与中继UE建立连接的D2D UE)发送的D2D发现信息包括以下信息的部分或全部:远端UE标识,远端UE的类型,远端UE的通信组标识等。寻找中继UE的远端UE发送发现中继的D2D信息包括的内容如步骤703中所述。
此外处于中继活动状态的UE1可使用中继发现发送资源或从中继发现发送资源池随机选择资源周期性的发送中继广播信息。中继广播信息可包括中继标识、中继类型、中继服务小区标识,中继可用时段、中继所属组标识,中继移动状态指示、中继PLMN信息,中继禁止状态指示等。

Officer A,B分别使用具备D2D功能的UE1,UE2。UE1处于有网络覆 盖状态,而UE2处于无网络覆盖。本示例描述中继UE从中继非活动状态进入中继活动状态的另一种流程。处于有网络覆盖的UE1有兴趣成为中继节点,为无覆盖的UE提供中继服务。如图8所示,包括以下步骤:
步骤801,基站选择UE1作为中继节点,则基站向UE1发送设备直通中继配置信息,UE1收到中继配置信息后,如果配置信息指示使能中继节电,则UE1进入中继非活动状态;
步骤802,中继UE1在中继发现接收资源池上接收远端UE发送发现中继的D2D信息;
在非中继发现接收资源池对应的子帧上,UE1无需监听对应的子帧。此外中继UE1还可根据中继配置信息包含的中继非活动状态监听周期,监听帧/子帧偏移,监听持续时长等信息监听中继发现接收资源池上远端UE发送发现中继的D2D信息。
步骤803,远端UE2发送发现中继的D2D信息;
此时处于无覆盖状态的UE2希望找到中继UE连接到网络传输信息,则UE2首先监听中继发现接收资源池,判断附近是否有中继UE发送的D2D中继广播信息。如果能接收到中继UE发送的D2D中继广播信息,则远端UE2选择一个中继UE,并向选中的中继UE发送中继连接建立请求。假设UE2此时接收不到中继UE发送的D2D中继广播信息,则远端UE2发送发现中继的D2D信息。
远端UE2发送的发现中继的D2D信息包括以下内容的部分或全部:寻找中继指示,远端UE的标识、远端UE的类型,远端UE寻找的中继类型,远端UE的通信目标标识,远端UE的通信组标识,远端UE的优先级等。
步骤804,中继UE1接收到远端UE2发送发现中继的D2D信息,并根据消息内容判断UE2正在寻找中继UE,则中继UE1使用中继发现发送资源或从中继发现发送资源池随机选择资源向远端UE2发送中继响应D2D信息;
中继响应D2D信息可包括以下内容的部分或全部:中继标识、中继类型、中继服务小区标识,中继可用时段、中继所属组标识,中继移动状态指 示、中继PLMN信息,中继禁止状态指示等。
步骤805,UE2收到中继UE1发送的中继响应D2D信息,向中继UE1发送中继连接建立请求;
如果UE2同时收到多个中继UE发送的中继响应D2D信息,则UE2选择一个中继UE并向选中的中继UE发送中继连接建立请求。
步骤806,中继UE1接收到远端UE2发送的中继连接建立请求,则中继UE1向远端UE2发送中继连接建立信息;
步骤807,UE2接入到了中继UE1,中继UE1进入中继活动状态;
步骤808,中继UE1和远端UE2可以相互转发数据。
中继UE1后续可在中继通信接收资源池上接收UE2发送的D2D通信信息,使用中继通信发送资源或从中继通信发送资源池随机选择资源向远端UE2发送D2D通信信息。中继UE1还可接收已接入的UE发送的D2D发现信息,以及尚未接入的其他远端UE发送的连接建立请求信息以及发现中继的D2D信息。
此外处于中继活动状态的UE1可使用中继发现发送资源或从中继发现发送资源池随机选择资源周期性的发送D2D中继广播信息。D2D中继广播信息可包括以下内容的部分或全部:中继标识、中继类型、中继服务小区标识,中继可用时段、中继所属组标识,中继移动状态指示、中继PLMN信息,中继禁止状态指示等。
应用示例5
Officer A,B分别使用具备D2D功能的UE1,UE2。UE1处于有网络覆盖状态,而UE2处于无网络覆盖。本示例描述远端UE中继活动状态维护流程,假设基站选择UE1作为中继节点,并且中继UE1已进入中继活动状态。如图9所示,包括以下步骤:
步骤901,处于中继活动状态的UE1可使用中继发现发送资源或从中继发现发送资源池随机选择资源周期性的发送D2D中继广播信息。D2D中继广播信息可包括中继标识、中继类型、中继服务小区标识,中继可用时段、 中继所属组标识,中继移动状态指示、中继PLMN信息,中继禁止状态指示等。此时处于无覆盖状态的UE2希望找到中继UE连接到网络传输信息,则UE2首先监听中继发现接收资源池,判断附近是否有中继UE发送的D2D中继广播信息,此时UE2接收到中继UE1发送的D2D中继广播信息,则远端UE2向中继UE1发送中继连接建立请求。中继UE1接收到远端UE2发送的中继连接建立请求,则中继UE1向远端UE2发送中继连接建立信息与UE2建立连接;
步骤902,UE1在UE2接入时,启动对应于远端UE2的活动状态定时器;
步骤903,中继UE1判断是否有以下事件任意之一发生,如果有,执行步骤904,否则执行步骤907:在中继通信接收资源池上接收到远端UE2发送的D2D通信信息;使用中继通信发送资源或从中继通信发送资源池随机选择资源向远端UE2发送D2D通信信息;接收到远端UE2发送的D2D发现信息。
步骤904,判断接收到的消息是否为远端UE2发送的连接释放请求信息,如果是,执行步骤906,否则执行步骤905;
步骤905,中继UE1重启远端UE2的活动状态定时器,返回步骤903;
中继UE1接收到远端UE2发送的D2D通信信息,或者中继UE1向远端UE2发送了D2D通信信息,或者中继UE1接收到远端UE2发送的D2D发现信息,均会触发中继UE1重启远端UE2活动状态定时器。
步骤906,如果UE1收到UE2发送的连接释放请求信息,则UE1向UE2发送连接释放信息,执行步骤8;
步骤907,判断远端UE2活动状态定时器是否超时,如果是,执行步骤908,否则返回步骤903;
步骤908,UE1释放与远端UE2的连接及保存的UE2的上下文。
此外,中继UE1可在远端UE2的活动状态定时器超时时,向远端UE2发送发现远端UE2的D2D信息或是寻呼信息,如果在预定时间内接收不到远端UE2发送的响应信息,则所述中继UE1释放与远端UE2的连接。

步骤1001,基站选择UE1作为中继节点,使能了中继节电,中继UE1已进入中继活动状态;
步骤1002,此时处于无覆盖状态的UE2和UE3均已接入中继UE1,中继UE1在UE2和UE3接入时,分别启动对应于UE2和UE3的活动状态定时器;
步骤1003,中继UE1可利用示例5中的方法(示例5中步骤903-907)判断是否需要释放与UE2的连接,以及判断是否需要释放与UE3的连接,如果是,执行步骤1004,否则返回本步骤;
步骤1004,中继UE1陆续释放了与UE2和UE3的连接,UE1进入中继非活动状态。
应用示例7
Officer A,B,C分别使用具备D2D功能的UE1,UE2,UE3。UE1处于有网络覆盖状态,而UE2和UE3处于无网络覆盖。本示例描述中继UE从中继活动状态到中继非活动状态的流程,在本示例中,中继UE1维护一个自身的中继活动状态定时器,如图11所示,包括以下步骤:
步骤1101,基站选择UE1作为中继节点,向其发送中继配置信息,UE1收到中继配置信息后,如果配置信息指示激活中继功能并且使能中继节电,则UE1进入中继非活动状态;
步骤1102,中继UE1在中继发现接收资源池上监听远端UE发送的D2D发现信息,中继UE1接收到远端UE2发送的D2D发现信息,并根据消息内容判断UE2正在寻找中继UE,则UE1进入中继活动状态,同时启动中继活 动状态定时器;
步骤1103,中继UE1与远端UE2以及UE3建立连接并为其转发数据,中继UE1判断是否有以下事件任意之一发生,如果是,执行步骤1104,否则执行步骤1105:中继UE1在中继通信接收资源池上接收到UE2或UE3发送的D2D通信信息;中继UE1使用中继通信发送资源或从中继通信发送资源池随机选择资源向远端UE2或UE3发送D2D通信信息;中继UE1接收到UE2或UE3发送的D2D发现信息;
步骤1104,中继UE1重启中继活动状态定时器,返回步骤1103;
