Definitions
- the present application relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a communication method, apparatus, and system in a wireless network.
- the reliability of the Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection is the basis for ensuring the interaction between the control plane and the user plane information. Wireless link problems can cause RRC connections to be unreliable, affecting communication quality.
- a Dual Connectivity (DC) architecture is introduced in 4G mobile communication. Taking the Long Term Evolution (LTE) system as an example, in the DC architecture, the terminal device can simultaneously communicate with the primary access network device (for example, the primary base station MeNB (Master eNB)) and the secondary access network device (for example, the secondary base station SeNB). (Secondary eNB)) Establish a communication connection.
- LTE Long Term Evolution
- the primary base station MeNB Master eNB
- SeNB secondary base station SeNB
- the primary access network device is responsible for mobility management and packet offloading of the terminal device.
- the secondary access network device is used to help the primary access network device to undertake part of the data service.
- the terminal device can only support one RRC state, that is, the terminal device can only establish an RRC connection with one access network device and maintain a communication connection with another access network device.
- the communication connection is a non-RRC connection.
- the primary access network device needs to perform control signaling and data interaction with the terminal device, so the terminal device establishes an RRC connection with the primary access network device. Only the data exchange between the secondary access network device and the terminal device is performed, so that the communication connection is maintained with the terminal device.
- 5G mobile communication As 4G mobile wireless communication enters the commercial stage, the 5th Generation (5G) mobile communication for the future has become a global research and development hotspot.
- 5G mobile communication is Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency Communications (URLLC).
- URLLC Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency Communications
- the URLLC service has extremely strict delay requirements on the user plane and the control plane. The requirements for delay in 3GPP TR 38.913 are described below:
- the target delay of the control plane is 10ms
- the target delay of the user plane is 0.5 ms upstream and 0.5 ms downstream;
- the target interrupt latency for mobile is 0ms.
- the URLLC service usually requires data to be transmitted as soon as it is generated. Unreliable RRC connections can cause data transmission interruptions, resulting in interrupt latency.
- some URLLC services require the use of high frequency communications. In high frequency communication, the channel exhibits fast fading. Therefore, due to the high frequency, the RRC connection caused by the wireless link problem is more unreliable for such services.
- 5G communication follows the aforementioned dual connectivity architecture to ensure better communication quality.
- one problem of the existing dual-connection architecture is that the terminal device only maintains an RRC connection with the primary access network device, and when a radio link failure (RLF) occurs between the terminal device and the primary access network device, The primary access network device cannot continue the mobility management and data packet offloading of the terminal device, and the above work cannot be completed because there is no RRC connection between the secondary access network device and the terminal device. Therefore, once the RLF occurs on the primary access network device, it is considered that RLF occurs in both connections. At this time, neither the primary access network device nor the secondary access network device can provide services for the terminal device. In order to restore the normal dual-connection working mode, the terminal device needs to find a new primary access network device for RRC connection re-establishment, and re-add or modify the secondary access network device.
- RLF radio link failure
- the data transmission is temporarily interrupted during the RRC connection reestablishment process between the terminal device and the primary access network device, and the data interruption delay caused by the terminal device is undesirable for the URLLC service.
- the addition or modification of the secondary access network device needs to be completed through the RRC connection re-establishment process, which prolongs the recovery time of the dual-connection architecture, and is not conducive to the implementation of the target performance of the URLLC service. Therefore, the delay caused by the existing dual-connection recovery process cannot meet the requirements of the 5G mobile communication service, especially the low latency requirement of the URLLC service.
- the embodiment of the invention provides a communication method, device and system in a wireless network, which can establish an RRC connection with a secondary access network device when the quality of the wireless link between the terminal device and the primary access network device is poor, and maintain data transmission. At the same time speed up the recovery of the dual connectivity mode of operation to meet the needs of low latency.
