SRS的发送、配置及测量方法、定位方法及设备
相关申请的交叉引用
本申请主张在2020年3月20日在中国提交的中国专利申请号No.202010202889.7的优先权,其全部内容通过引用包含于此。
技术领域
本发明实施例涉及无线通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种SRS的发送、配置及测量方法、定位方法及设备。
背景技术
探测参考信号(Sounding Reference Signal,SRS)包括用于测量的SRS和用于定位的SRS,用于测量的SRS可以发送给用户设备(User Equipment,UE,也可以称为终端)的服务小区,用于测量UE的上行信道质量。用于定位的SRS可以发送给UE的服务小区和邻区,用于UE的定位。
相关技术中规定,如果UE没有开启非连续接收持续时间定时器(DRX-OndurationTimer),则UE不需要进行周期和半持续的SRS的发送,但是,并未规定该SRS是用于测量的SRS还是用于定位的SRS,也就是说,用于定位的SRS的发送方式并未明确,从而邻区可能会在UE未发送SRS时仍进行SRS的测量,导致资源浪费。
在长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)中,仅支持无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)空闲态和RRC连接态。实际中的常见情况是使用空闲态作为UE的主要睡眠状态来省电。然而,由于在一些智能手机中常常存在小数据包的频繁传输,如果按照LTE方式,会存在大量的空闲态到连接态的转换。这些转换增加了信令负载和信令延时。因此,为了减少信令负载和等待时间,在新空口(New Radio,NR)中引入了RRC_INACTIVE(非激活态)状态。在RRC_INACTIVE态,保持了网络侧与UE侧的RRC上下文。从核心网的角度来看,无线接入网络(Radio Access Network,RAN)侧与核心网的连接处于状态。因此从非激活态转换到连接态的速度很快,且不需要 核心网信令。同时,允许UE以空闲态类似的方式休眠,并且通过小区重选来处理移动性。因此,RRC_INACTIVE可以被视为空闲和连接状态的混合。相关技术中,并未规定在RRC非连接态(包括空闲态和非激活态)是否会发送用于定位的SRS,也就是说,用于定位的SRS的发送方式并未明确,从而邻区可能会在UE未发送SRS时仍进行SRS的测量,导致资源浪费。

本发明实施例提供的终端12可以为手机、平板电脑、笔记本电脑、超级移动个人计算机(Ultra-Mobile Personal Computer,UMPC)、上网本或者个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant,PDA)等。
下面首先对本发明实施例涉及的一些技术内容进行说明。
请参考图2,非连续接收(Discontinuous Reception,DRX)周期(cycle)由“On Duration”和“Opportunity for DRX”组成:在“On Duration”的时间内,UE 监听并接收物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)(即DRX激活时间,也可以称为激活期);在“Opportunity for DRX”时间内,UE不接收下行信道的数据以节省功耗(即DRX非激活时间,也可以称为休眠期)。
请参考图3,可以根据不同业务模型,配置短周期(short DRX-cycle)或者长周期(long DRX-cycle)。
下面对NR RRC的三个状态进行说明。
处于空闲(Idle)态的UE,在网络侧上没有RRC上下文,也就是说网络侧与UE之间通信所必须的参数不属于某个特定的小区,网络侧也不知道是否存在该UE。UE被分配了一组跟踪区域标识(Tracking area identifier,TAI)列表(list)。从核心网的角度来看,无线接入网络(RAN)侧与核心网的连接已断开。为了减少耗电,UE在大部分时间处于休眠状态,因此无法进行数据传输。在下行链路中,处于Idle态的UE可周期性地唤醒以从网络侧接收寻呼消息(如果有的话)。移动性(Mobility)可由UE进行小区重选来处理。在Idle态,UE与网络侧不会保持上行同步,如果要从Idle态转入连接(Connected)态,只能通过随机接入(Random Access),在UE与网络侧建立RRC上下文。
在RRC_Connected态,可建立RRC上下文,且通信所需的所有参数对于两个实体(UE与网络侧)都是已知的。从核心网的角度来看,UE处于CN_Connected状态。UE所属的小区是已知的,并且已经配置了用于设备和网络之间的传输信令目的设备标识,即小区无线网络临时标识符(C-RNTI)。连接态可传输数据,但由于包的数据流通常是突发的,在没有数据流传输的时候,可以通过关闭UE的接收电路来降低功耗,采用DRX技术。由于在连接态下已在基站(gNB)中建立了RRC上下文,因此离开DRX并开始接收/发送数据相对较快。在连接态,移动性(Mobility)可由网络侧控制,即UE向网络提供邻小区测量,网络命令设备进行切换(handover)。上行时间同步可能存在也可能不存在,当有数据要传输时,可通过使用随机接入去建立上行同步。
在LTE中,仅支持空闲态和连接态。实际中的常见情况是使用空闲态作为UE的主要睡眠状态来省电。然而,由于在一些智能手机中常常存在小数 据包的频繁传输,如果按照LTE方式,会存在大量的空闲态到连接态的转换。这些转换增加了信令负载和信令延时。因此,为了减少信令负载和等待时间,在NR中引入了非激活态(RRC_INACTIVE)状态。
在RRC_INACTIVE态,保持了网络侧与UE侧的RRC上下文。从核心网的角度来看,RAN侧与核心网的连接处于状态。因此从非激活态转换到连接态的速度很快,且不需要核心网信令。同时,允许UE以空闲态类似的方式休眠,并且通过小区重选来处理移动性。因此,RRC_INACTIVE可以被视为空闲和连接状态的混合。
从上面的讨论可以看出,不同状态之间的一个重要区别是所涉及的移动性机制(mobility)。高效的移动性处理是任何移动通信***的关键部分。对于空闲和非激活状态,移动性由设备通过小区重选来处理,而对于连接态,移动性由网络侧基于UE测量来处理。

步骤403:接收位置管理设备发送的第二信息,所述第二信息包括以下至少之一:用于指示在DRX非激活时间发送或不发送所述SRS的指示信息、所述SRS的当前周期和所述SRS的发送与唤醒信息的关系。

下面对上述各DRX的定时器进行说明。
其中,DRX持续时间定时器(drx-onDurationTimer):一个DRX周期内UE监听PDCCH的持续时间。一旦启动中途不允许重启。
DRX非激活定时器(drx-InactivityTimer):在接收到一个指示新传的PDCCH后还需要监听PDCCH的时长,该Timer在指示新传(UL或DL)的PDCCH接收结束后的第一个符号启动或重启。当收到DRX command MAC CE时停止该定时器。
DRX下行重传定时/DRX上行重传定时器(drx-RetransmissionTimerDL/drx-RetransmissionTimerUL):该定时器为per HARQ Process参数,表示UE为了接收期望的下行重传数据,需要连续监测的最大PDCCH时隙(slot)个数。该定时器在drx-HARQ-RTT-Timer超时后第一个符号启动。当接收到指示下行重传的PDCCH时停止该定时器。
DRX长周期启动偏移定时器(drx-LongCycleStartOffset):可以同时表示longDRX-Cycle和drxStartOffset这两层含义。如果网络侧同时也配置了短周期(ShortDrx-Cycle)参数,那么长周期必须配置成短周期的整数倍。
DRX短周期(drx-ShortCycle):短周期DRX的周期长度。
DRX短周期定时器(drx-ShortCycleTimer):持续多少个短周期没有收到PDCCH就进入长周期。当drx-inactivityTimer超时且配置了短周期时启动。Timer长度为短周期的整数倍。
DRX下行HARQ往返传输时间定时器/DRX上行HARQ往返传输时间定时器(drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL/drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerUL):该定时器为Per HARQ Process参数,表示等待重传的最小时间间隔。在ACK/NACK发送结束后的第一个符号启动该定时器,在该定时器运行期间,对应MAC不监听PDCCH。当该Timer超时时,启动对应HARQ进程的drx-RetransmissionTimerDL。
(长)DRX命令MAC CE((Long)DRX Command MAC CE)都是为了尽量快速的让UE进入睡眠状态而引入。Long CE可用于停止drx-ShortCycleTimer并进入Long DRX;而CE是用于停止drx-InactivityTimer的,如果配置了短周期DRX,那么进入短周期DRX,否则进入长周期DRX。
上述各实施例中,可选的,所述SRS的当前周期为以下之一:
