Description

一种改变承载类型的方法及装置、计算机存储介质 技术领域
本发明涉及移动通信领域,尤其涉及一种改变承载类型的方法及装置、计算机存储介质。
背景技术
在无线通信***中,由于单个基站的带宽资源和覆盖范围有限,因此需要不同类型或相同类型的基站协同组网,从而集中多个小区或者基站的无线资源来为用户提供服务,更容易满足用户的容量需求和覆盖需求,这种方式通常称之为多连接。双连接(DC,Dual Connectivity)就是一种常用的多连接方式。
在DC场景下,用户可以同时保持与两个基站的连接,在这种场景下,用户可以单独接收一个基站的数据,也可以同时接收两个基站的数据。根据基站为用户提供服务方式的不同,用户的承载可以分为不同的类型,例如:主小区群承载(MCG bearer)、辅小区群承载(SCG bearer)、分流承载(Split bearer)。对于某个用户而言,其所具有的承载类型可以从一个承载类型改变到另一个承载类型,也即某个用户发生了承载类型的改变。
对于某个用户的承载而言,其承载可以支持数据复制型传输,对应的分组数据汇聚协议(PDCP,Packet Data Convergence Protocol)层具有复制数据功能,通过PDCP层使复制的两份数据分别传输到两个无线链路控制协议(RLC,Radio Link Control)实体,而后在不同的物理层聚合载波上进行传输,这种方案也可以称为载波聚合(CA,Carrier Aggregation)复制(duplication)。

具体实施方式
为了能够更加详尽地了解本发明实施例的特点与技术内容,下面结合附图对本发明实施例的实现进行详细阐述,所附附图仅供参考说明之用,并非用来限定本发明实施例。
图1为DC场景下的协议结构示意图,如图1所示,MN代表网络侧的主节点(Master Node),SN代表网络侧的辅节点(Slave Node)。在一实施方式,MN为长期演进(LTE,Long Term Evolution)***,SN为NR(New Radio)***;在另一实施方式中,MN为NR***,SN为LTE***;在又一实施方式中,MN为NR***,SN也为NR***。值得注意的是,MN和SN代表了两个不同的网络节点,这两个不同的网络节点的网络类型可以不同,也可以相同。
在DC架构中,用户可以同时保持与MN和SN的连接,其中,MN与SN之间通过X2接口实现交互。DC场景下的协议结构如图1所示,在MN和SN侧,都具有PDCP层、RLC层、媒体接入控制(MAC,Media Access Control)层。对于某个用户而言,其可以保持任意一种承载类型,以下对用户的承载类型进行具体地解释说明:
1)对于数据承载而言,承载类型包括:
MCG bearer:承载的无线协议仅位于MCG;
MCG split bearer:承载的无线协议在MN进行分割,同时位于MCG和SCG;
SCG bearer:承载的无线协议仅位于SCG;
SCG split bearer:承载的无线协议在SN进行分割,同时位于SCG和MCG。
2)对于信令承载而言,承载类型包括:
MCG SRB:MN和UE之间的信令承载(SRB,Signalling Radio Bearers);
MCG split SRB:MN和UE之间的SRB,其中,UE支持通过SN复制无线资源控制(RRC,Radio Resource Control)协议数据单元(PDU,Protocol Data Unit);
SCG SRB:SN和UE之间的SRB。
下面结合数据承载的各个承载类型对协议栈的实现过程进行详细描述。
1)MCG bearer:
MCG bearer的传输通道如图1所示,MCG bearer首先经过MN PDCP层,MN PDCP层对MCG bearer处理后传输至MN RLC层,MN RLC层对MCG bearer处理后传输至MN MAC层,MN MAC层对MCG bearer处理后将MCG bearer发送给用户。
2)MCG split bearer:
MCG split bearer的传输通道如图1所示,MCG split bearer首先经过MN PDCP层,MN PDCP层对MCG split bearer进行处理的过程中会对MCG split bearer进行分割,分割成两部分bearer,其中:第一部分bearer传输至MN RLC层,MN RLC层对第一部分bearer处理后传输至MN MAC层,MN MAC层对第一部分bearer处理后将第一部分bearer发送给用户;第二部分bearer传输至SN中的SN RLC层,SN RLC层对第二部分bearer处理后传输至SN MAC层,SN MAC层对第二部分bearer处理后将第二部分bearer发送给用户。
3)SCG bearer:
SCG bearer的传输通道如图1所示,SCG bearer首先经过SN PDCP层,SN PDCP层对SCG bearer处理后传输至SN RLC层,SN RLC层对SCG bearer处理后传输至SN MAC层,SN MAC层对SCG bearer处理后将SCG bearer发送给用户。
4)SCG split bearer:
SCG split bearer的传输通道如图1所示,SCG split bearer首先经过SN PDCP层,SN PDCP层对SCG split bearer进行处理的过程中会对SCG split bearer进行分割,分割成两部分bearer,其中:第一部分bearer传输至SN RLC层,SN RLC层对第一部分bearer处理后传输至SN MAC层,SN MAC层对第一部分bearer处理后将第一部分bearer发送给用户;第二部分bearer传输至MN中的MN RLC层,MN RLC层对第二部分bearer处理后传输至MN MAC层,MN MAC层对第二部分bearer处理后将第二部分bearer发送给用户。
本领域技术人员应当理解,图1所示的协议结构不仅适用在网络侧,也适用在用户侧,也即终端侧,终端的协议结构与网络的协议结构是相对应的。
本发明实施例中,用户的承载类型可以相互转变,具体如下:
1)对于数据承载而言,具有如下类型转变:
MCG bearer与MCG split bearer之间的相互转变;
MCG bearer与SCG bearer之间的相互转变;
MCG bearer与SCG split bearer之间的相互转变;
SCG bearer与SCG split bearer之间的相互转变;
MCG bearer向MCG bearer的转变;
SCG bearer向SCG bearer的转变;
MCG split bearer向MCG split bearer的转变;
SCG split bearer向SCG split bearer的转变。
2)对于信令承载而言,具有如下类型转变:
MCG SRB与MCG split SRB之间的相互转变。
图2为CA duplication场景下的协议结构示意图,在CA duplication场景下,PDCP层具有复制数据功能,如图2所示,PDCP服务数据单元(SDU,Service Data Uint)传输至PDCP层,由于PDCP层配置有复制数据功能,因而PDCP层可以将处理得到的PDCP PDU复制一份,得到Duplicated PDCP PDU,之后,将PDCP PDU传输至RLC实体(Entity)a,将Duplicated PDCP PDU传输至RLC Entity b,这里,RLC Entity a和RLC Entity b分别对应两个不同的逻辑信道,通过两个RLC Entity分别对两份数据进行处理后再通过MAC层实现将两份数据在不同的物理层聚合载波上传输(如图2中的Physical Carrier1和Physical Carrier2),从而达到频率分集增益以提高数据传输可靠性。
上述图1的方案中,对于MCG bearer和SCG bearer而言,一个PDCP实体下对应一个RLC实体,并没有考虑到CA duplication的场景,也即没有考虑到一个PDCP实体下对应两个RLC实体的情况,本发明实施例的技术方案能够结合CA duplication实现承载类型的改变。
本发明实施例的以下技术方案均以承载为数据承载为例来解释承载类型的改变,信令承载的承载类型的改变也同样适应于本发明实施例的技术方案,其中涉及到的承载类型包括:MCG bearer、MCG split bearer、SCG bearer、SCG split bearer,其中,MCG bearer和SCG bearer均对应网络侧的一个网络节点,MCG bearer对应MN,SCG bearer对应SN;MCG split bearer和SCG split bearer统称为Split bearer,Split bearer对应网络侧的两个网络节点,也即MN和SN。
图3为本发明实施例的改变承载类型的方法的流程示意图,如图3所示,所述改变承载类型的方法包括以下步骤:
步骤301:终端接收到控制信令,所述控制信令携有第一指示信息,所述第一指示信息用于指示所述终端从源承载类型改变到目标承载类型。
本发明实施例中,承载类型的改变可以但不局限于通过以下方式触发:
方式一:终端在移动的过程中,与MN和SN的距离不断发生变化。终端距离MN较近时,对应的承载类型为MCG bearer;终端位于MN和SN之间时,对应的承载类型为Split bearer;终端距离SN较近时,对应的承载类型为SCG bearer。进一步,终端从距离MN较近移动到MN和SN之间时,对应的承载类型由MCG bearer切换到Split bearer(具体为MCG split bearer);终端从MN和SN之间移动到距离SN较近时,对应的承载类型由Split bearer切换到SCG bearer。反之,终端从距离SN较近移动到MN和SN之间时,对应的承载类型由SCG bearer切换到Split bearer(具体为SCG split bearer);终端从MN和SN之间移动到距离MN较近时,对应的承载类型由Split bearer切换到MCG bearer。
方式二:MN和SN之间为了实现某种网络策略(如负载均衡策略),调整终端的承载类型,例如:初始时终端的承载类型为MCG bearer,当MN的负载逐渐增大时,可以将该终端的承载类型由MCG bearer变换为Split bearer,从而通过MN和SN共同为终端提供服务,实现负载的均衡。
网络侧确定出终端需要改变承载类型时,向终端发送控制信令,所述控制信令携有第一指示信息,所述第一指示信息用于指示所述终端从源承载类型改变到目标承载类型。终端接收到控制信令后,进行承载类型的改变,即:从源承载类型改变到目标承载类型。
步骤302:所述终端基于所述源承载类型的传输特征以及所述目标承载类型的传输特征,释放所述源承载类型对应的至少一个RLC实体,和/或创建所述目标承载类型对应的至少一个RLC实体。
本发明实施例中,所述控制信令还携有第二指示信息,所述第二指示信息用于指示所述目标承载类型是否支持数据复制型传输(也即CA duplication)。
本发明实施例的DC架构结合了CA duplication的情况,因此,源承载类型和目标承载类型具有以下三种传输特征组合:
1)所述源承载类型支持数据复制型传输,所述目标承载类型不支持数据复制型传输;
2)所述源承载类型不支持数据复制型传输,所述目标承载类型支持数据复制型传输;
3)所述源承载类型支持数据复制型传输,所述目标承载类型支持数据复制型传输。
此外,源承载类型和目标承载类型还具有以下传输特征:
4)所述源承载类型不支持数据复制型传输,所述目标承载类型不支持数据复制型传输。
这里,支持数据复制型传输的承载类型可以是:MCG bearer、SCG bearer、Split bearer。不支持数据复制型传输的承载类型可以是:MCG bearer、SCG bearer、Split bearer。
对于源承载类型而言:所述源承载类型为Non-Split bearer;所述终端基于所述源承载类型的传输特征以及所述目标承载类型的传输特征,释放所述源承载类型对应的至少一个RLC实体,包括:
如果所述源承载类型支持数据复制型传输,则判断所述目标承载类型是否为Split bearer;
如果所述目标承载类型是所述Split bearer,则从所述源承载类型对应的两个RLC实体中释放一个RLC实体;
如果所述目标承载类型不是所述Split bearer,则从所述源承载类型对应的两个RLC实体中释放两个RLC实体。
这里,所述目标承载类型是所述Split bearer或不是所述Split bearer时,所述目标承载类型能够支持数据复制型传输或者不支持数据复制型传输。
对于目标承载类型而言:所述目标承载类型为Non-Split bearer;所述终端基于所述源承载类型的传输特征以及所述目标承载类型的传输特征,创建所述目标承载类型对应的至少一个RLC实体,包括:
如果所述目标承载类型支持数据复制型传输,则判断所述源承载类型是否为Split bearer;
如果所述源承载类型是所述Split bearer,则创建所述目标承载类型对应的一个RLC实体;
如果所述源承载类型不是所述Split bearer,则创建所述目标承载类型对应的两个RLC实体。
这里,所述源承载类型是所述Split bearer或不是所述Split bearer时,所述源承载类型能够支持数据复制型传输或者不支持数据复制型传输。
本发明实施例中,PDCP实体在承载类型改变的过程中可能不需要进行操作,或者需要进行数据恢复操作,或者需要进行重建操作。
在一实施方式中,在从所述源承载类型改变到所述目标承载类型的过程中,
如果源承载支持数据复制型传输,则不进行数据重发操作。
其中,所述源承载类型支持数据复制型传输,是指1)所述源承载类型配置了分组数据汇聚协议PDCP复制传输。或者,2)所述源承载类型配置并激活了PDCP复制传输。
上述方案中,所述不进行数据重发操作,具有如下几种情况:

情况二:如果源承载支持数据复制型传输且目标承载为分流承载,则不进行数据重发操作。
情况三:如果源承载支持数据复制型传输且在从所述源承载类型改变到所述目标承载类型的过程中,存在至少一个已创建且未重新建立的RLC实体,则不进行数据重发操作。
上述方案中,所述不进行数据重发操作,是指:不进行PDCP实体数据恢复操作中的数据重发操作。
这里,不进行PDCP实体数据恢复操作中的数据重发操作,具有如下几种情况:
情况一:网络不下发数据恢复操作指示信息,终端因此不会进行PDCP实体数据恢复操作中的数据重发操作。
情况二:网络下发数据恢复操作指示信息,但是终端不执行PDCP实体数据恢复操作。
情况三:网络下发数据恢复操作指示信息,但是终端不执行PDCP实体数据恢复操作中的数据重发操作。
在一实施方式中,如果目标承载未配置或未激活PDCP复制传输,则不进行数据重发操作。

1)在源承载未配置和/或配置了但未激活数据复制传输的情况下,重新发送PDCP实体进行数据恢复操作前已经发送给释放的RLC实体和/或重新建立的RLC实体,且没有收到成功收到确认消息的数据。
2)在RLC实体均重新建立或释放的情况下,重新发送PDCP实体进行数据恢复操作前已经发送给释放的RLC实体和/或重新建立的RLC实体,且没有收到成功收到确认消息的数据。
上述方案中,数据恢复操作主要包括两个步骤:1)发送PDCP状态报告;2)重传数据。
上述方案中,新创建的RLC实体是指原来没有这个RLC实体,新创建了一个RLC实体;重新建立的RLC实体是指原来有这个RLC实体,通过重置等方式对该RLC实体进行了更新,RLC实体重新建立意味着RLC实体清空所有的缓存数据(包括还没有成功发送的数据)以及一些其他操作。
在一实施方式中,如果所述数据重发操作重发的是PDCP实体进行数据恢复操作前已经发送给已创建且未重新建立的RLC实体的数据,则通过新创建的RLC实体和/或重新建立的RLC实体进行数据重发操作。
在一实施方式中,如果所述数据重发操作重发的是PDCP实体进行数据恢复操作前未发送给已 创建且未重新建立的RLC实体的数据,则通过新创建的RLC实体和/或重新建立的RLC实体和/或已创建且未重新建立的RLC实体进行数据重发操作。1)例如:如果所述数据重发操作重发的是PDCP实体进行数据恢复操作前未发送给已创建且未重新建立的RLC实体的数据,则通过新创建的RLC实体和重新建立的RLC实体和已创建且未重新建立的RLC实体进行数据重发操作;2)再例如:如果所述数据重发操作重发的是PDCP实体进行数据恢复操作前未发送给已创建且未重新建立的RLC实体的数据,则通过新创建的RLC实体和已创建且未重新建立的RLC实体进行数据重发操作;3)又例如:如果所述数据重发操作重发的是PDCP实体进行数据恢复操作前未发送给已创建且未重新建立的RLC实体的数据,则通过重新建立的RLC实体和已创建且未重新建立的RLC实体进行数据重发操作。

以下结合具体应用示例对本发明实施例的技术方案做进一步详细描述。
应用示例一
如图4所示,本示例中,源承载类型支持数据复制型传输,也即源承载类型为MCG bearer或SCG bearer(以下说明以源承载类型为MCG bearer为例),目标承载类型是Split bearer,这种场景下:由于源承载类型支持数据复制型传输,因此,源承载类型的PDCP层对应两个RLC实体(两个RLC实体均对应MN),分别为RLC Entity a和RLC Entity b;由于目标承载类型是Split bearer,因此,目标承载类型的PDCP层也对应两个RLC实体(一个RLC实体对应MN,另一个RLC实体对应SN),分别为RLC Entity a和RLC Entity c。可见,在实现承载类型切换时,需要释放源承载类型对应的RLC Entity b,并创建目标承载类型对应的RLC Entity c。
应用示例二
如图5所示,本示例中,源承载类型支持数据复制型传输,也即源承载类型为MCG bearer或SCG bearer(以下说明以源承载类型为MCG bearer为例),目标承载类型不是Split bearer,也即目标承载类型为SCG bearer或MCG bearer(以下说明以目标承载类型为SCG bearer为例),这种场景下:由于源承载类型支持数据复制型传输,因此,源承载类型的PDCP层对应两个RLC实体(两个RLC实体均对应MN),分别为RLC Entity a和RLC Entity b;由于目标承载类型是SCG bearer,因此,目标承载类型的PDCP层可以对应一个RLC实体,也可以对应两个RLC实体,这取决于目标承载类型是否支持数据复制型传输,如果目标承载类型不支持数据复制型传输,则目标承载类型的PDCP层对应一个RLC实体(该RLC实体对应SN),为RLC Entity c;如果目标承载类型支持数据复制型传输,则目标承载类型的PDCP层对应两个RLC实体(两个RLC实体均对应SN),分别为RLC Entity c、RLC Entity d。可见,在实现承载类型切换时,需要释放源承载类型对应的RLC Entity a和RLC Entity b,并创建目标承载类型对应的RLC Entity c,或者,RLC Entity c和RLC Entity d。
应用示例三
如图6所示,本示例中,目标承载类型支持数据复制型传输,也即目标承载类型为MCG bearer或SCG bearer(以下说明以目标承载类型为SCG bearer为例),源承载类型是Split bearer,这种场景下:由于目标承载类型支持数据复制型传输,因此,目标承载类型的PDCP层对应两个RLC实体(两个RLC实体均对应SN),分别为RLC Entity b和RLC Entity c;由于源承载类型是Split bearer,因此,源承载类型的PDCP层也对应两个RLC实体(一个RLC实体对应MN,另一个RLC实体对应SN),分别为RLC Entity a和RLC Entity b。可见,在实现承载类型切换时,需要释放源承载类型对 应的RLC Entity a,并创建目标承载类型对应的RLC Entity c。
应用示例四
如图7所示,本示例中,目标承载类型支持数据复制型传输,也即目标承载类型为MCG bearer或SCG bearer(以下说明以目标承载类型为SCG bearer为例),源承载类型不是Split bearer,也即源承载类型为SCG bearer或MCG bearer(以下说明以源承载类型为MCG bearer为例),这种场景下:由于目标承载类型支持数据复制型传输,因此,目标承载类型的PDCP层对应两个RLC实体(两个RLC实体均对应SN),分别为RLC Entity c和RLC Entity d;由于源承载类型是MCG bearer,因此,源承载类型的PDCP层可以对应一个RLC实体,也可以对应两个RLC实体,这取决于源承载类型是否支持数据复制型传输,如果源承载类型不支持数据复制型传输,则源承载类型的PDCP层对应一个RLC实体(该RLC实体对应MN),为RLC Entity a;如果源承载类型支持数据复制型传输,则源承载类型的PDCP层对应两个RLC实体(两个RLC实体均对应MN),分别为RLC Entity a、RLC Entity b。可见,在实现承载类型切换时,需要释放源承载类型对应的RLC Entity a,或者,RLC Entity a和RLC Entity b,并创建目标承载类型对应的RLC Entity c和RLC Entity d。
