Description

一种通信方法、装置及计算机可读存储介质
本申请要求于2020年08月07日提交中国专利局、申请号为202010791696.X、申请名称为“一种通信方法、装置及计算机可读存储介质”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请实施例涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种通信方法、装置及计算机可读存储介质。
背景技术
终端设备一般使用的是电池等电量有限的供电装置,因此,当终端设备的功耗较大时,终端设备的使用时长较短。例如,当终端设备一直处于接收状态时,终端设备的功耗较大。为了解决上述问题,业界引入了非连续接收(discontinuous reception,DRX)。DRX包括激活期和休眠期,终端设备处于激活期时,监听物理下行链路控制信道(physical downlink control channel,PDCCH),终端设备处于休眠期时,不监听PDCCH,从而可以降低终端设备的功耗。
目前,侧行链路(sidelink,SL)可以通过感知确定传输资源,例如,确定用于传输CSI报告的资源。然而,在SL中引入DRX之后,由于终端设备处于DRX的休眠期时无法接收信息,以致终端设备无法通过感知确定传输资源,或者感知的时间变短导致确定的传输资源发生冲突的概率增加,降低了CSI报告传输的可靠性。
发明内容
本申请实施例公开了一种通信方法、装置及计算机可读存储介质,用于保证CSI报告传输的可靠性。
第一方面公开一种通信方法,该通信方法可以应用于第二终端设备,也可以应用于第二终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片),以下以第二终端设备为例进行说明。该通信方法可以包括:向第一终端设备发送第一指示信息,激活第一定时器,在第一定时器的激活时间内监听物理侧行链路控制信道(physical sidelink control channel,PSCCH)或者侧行链路控制信息(sidelink control information,SCI)。第一指示信息用于触发信道状态信息(channel state information,CSI)的上报。
本申请实施例中,第二终端设备可以向第一终端设备发送用于触发CSI上报的指示信息,以及激活一个定时器,在这个定时器的激活时间内可以监听PSCCH或者SCI,以便第二终端设备在这个定时器的激活时间内可以接收到来自其它终端设备、网络设备等设备的信息。可见,在SL中引入DRX之后,第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送用于触发CSI上报的指示信息的情况下,可以激活一个定时器,从而可以解决由于SL引入DRX,以致终端设备处于DRX的休眠期而无法接收到第一终端设备反馈的CSI报告的技术问题。由于第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送用于触发CSI上报的信息的情况下,可以激活一个定时器,在这个定时器的激活时间内第二终端设备可以保持监听状态,可以保证第二终端设备在这个定时器的激活时间内不会错过第一终端设备反馈的CSI报告,从而可以保证CSI报告传输的可靠性。
作为一种可能的实施方式,监听PSCCH或者SCI用于接收来自第一终端设备的CSI报告。
本申请实施例中,第二终端设备在定时器的激活时间内监听PSCCH或者SCI是为了接收来自第一终端设备的CSI报告,可以避免第二终端设备发送用于触发CSI上报的指示信息之后,由于第二终端设备处于DRX的休眠期而无法接收到第一终端设备反馈的CSI报告的问题,因此,当第二终端设备处于DRX时,可以保证CSI报告传输的可靠性。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一指示信息承载在第一物理侧行链路共享信道(physical sidelink sharedchannel,PSSCH)上。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一PSSCH还可以包括CSI-参考信号(reference signal,RS)。
本申请实施例中,第二终端设备除了向第一终端设备发送用于触发CSI上报的指示信息之外,还一起向第一终端设备发送了CSI-RS,以便当第一终端设备需要CSI-RS生成CSI报告时,可以直接根据接收的CSI-RS生成CSI报告,而不需要专门获取CSI-RS,可以保证CSI传输的可靠性,减少第一终端设备的功耗。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第二终端设备激活第一定时器可以包括:在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号后的第M个符号,激活第一定时器,M为大于或等于1的整数。
本申请实施例中,第二终端设备是在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号后的符号激活第一定时器的,而不是在开始发送第一PSSCH时就激活定时器,由于第一终端设备接收CSI触发后需要时间生成CSI报告,不会在第二终端设备开始发送第一PSSCH时马上反馈CSI报告。因此,晚点启动定时器可以减少第二终端设备监听的时间,减少不必要的激活时间。从而可以在保证CSI报告传输可靠性的情况下降低终端设备的功耗。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第二终端设备激活第一定时器可以包括:在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的所在时隙后的第M个时隙,激活第一定时器,M为大于或等于1的整数。
本申请实施例中,以M为1举例,第二终端设备是在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的所在时隙后的第一个时隙激活第一定时器的,而不是在第一PSSCH的结束符号后的第一个符号就激活定时器,由于第一终端设备接收CSI触发后需要时间生成CSI报告,不会在第二终端设备发送第一PSSCH后马上反馈CSI报告。并且PSCCH的候选位置在一个时隙的固定符号位置(PSCCH符号有2个则为第二个符号和第三个符号;PSCCH符号有3个则为第二个符号、第三个符号和第四个符号)。因此,晚点启动定时器可以减少第二终端设备监听的时间,减少不必要的激活时间。从而可以在保证CSI报告传输可靠性的情况下降低终端设备的功耗。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一定时器的激活时间根据CSI报告延时上限确定。
本申请实施例中,由于信道状态信息是随着时间的变化而变化,CSI报告体现了信道状态,具有时效性。因此,当触发CSI上报的指示信息与反馈的CSI报告之间的时间间隔较长时,上报的CSI报告可能不能体现触发CSI上报时的信道状态,以致CSI报告丧失了时效性。CSI报告延时上限是保证CSI报告时效性的最大时限。因此,为了保证CSI报告的时效性,定时器的激活时间要考虑CSI报告延时上限。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一定时器的激活时间小于或等于CSI报告延时上限(report latency bound)。
本申请实施例中,由于信道状态信息是随着时间的变化而变化,CSI报告体现了信道状态,具有时效性。因此,当触发CSI上报的指示信息与反馈的CSI报告之间的时间间隔较长时,上报的CSI报告可能不能体现触发CSI上报时的信道状态,以致CSI报告丧失了时效性。CSI报告延时上限是保证CSI报告时效性的最大时限。因此,为了保证CSI报告的时效性,定时器的激活时间可以小于或等于CSI报告延时上限。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第二终端设备激活第一定时器包括:在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号后的第N个符号,激活第一定时器,N为大于CSI的计算时间的整数。
本申请实施例中,第二终端设备是在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号之后CSI的计算时间后激活第一定时器的,而不是在开始发送第一PSSCH时就激活定时器,也不是在发送完第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS后立即或马上激活定时器。由于第一终端设备在接收到用于触发CSI上报的指示信息到生成CSI报告之间需要一段时间,这段时间为CSI的计算时间,第一终端设备在这段时间内不会发送CSI报告,相应地,第二终端设备在这段时间内不会接收到第一终端设备发送的CSI报告,因此,第二终端设备在这段时间内可以不监听控制信令,或不激活定时器,可以进一步减少第二终端设备监听控制信令的时间,从而可以在保证CSI报告传输可靠性的情况下尽可能的降低终端设备的功耗。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一定时器的激活时间根据CSI报告延时上限和CSI的计算时间确定。
本申请实施例中,由于信道状态信息是随着时间的变化而变化,CSI报告体现了信道状态,具有时效性。因此,当触发CSI上报的指示信息与反馈的CSI报告之间的时间间隔较长时,上报的CSI报告可能不是触发CSI上报时的信道状态报告,以致CSI报告丧失时效性。而CSI报告延时上限是保证CSI报告时效性的最大时限。因此,第一定时器的激活时间需要考虑CSI报告延时上限。此外,由于第一定时器是在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号之后CSI的计算时间后被激活的,因此,第一定时器的激活时间也需要考虑CSI的计算时间。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一定时器的激活时间小于或等于CSI报告延时上限与CSI的计算时间的差值。
本申请实施例中,由于信道状态信息是随着时间的变化而变化,CSI报告体现了信道状态,具有时效性。因此,当触发CSI上报的指示信息与反馈的CSI报告之间的时间间隔较长时,上报的CSI报告可能不是触发CSI上报时的信道状态报告,以致CSI报告丧失时效性。而CSI报告延时上限是保证CSI报告时效性的最大时限。由于第一定时器是在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号之后CSI的计算时间后被激活的。因此,为了保证CSI报告的时效性,定时器的激活时间可以小于或等于CSI报告延时上限与CSI的计算时间的差值。
作为一种可能的实施方式,该通信方法还可以包括:在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号后的第一个符号,激活第二定时器,在第二定时器的激活时间内不监听PSCCH或SCI。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备在接收到用于触发CSI上报的指示信息到生成CSI报告之间需要一段时间,而在这段时间内第一终端设备不会反馈CSI报告。但第二终端设备在这段时间内可能处于DRX的激活期,第二终端设备处于DRX的激活期时需要进行监听。因此,第二终端设备在这段时间内进行监听无法接收到反馈的CSI报告。为了避免上述问题,第二终端设备使用另一个定时器,使第二终端设备在另一个定时器的激活时间内不进行监听来接收反馈的CSI报告,从而可以进一步降低终端设备的功耗。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一指示信息可以包括第二级SCI,第二级SCI可以包括CSI请求字段,CSI请求字段用于触发CSI的上报。
作为一种可能的实施方式,该通信方法还可以包括:当接收到来自第一终端设备的CSI报告,或者第一定时器超时时,确定第一定时器失效。
本申请实施例中,当第二终端设备接收到来自第一终端设备的CSI报告时,表明这个定时 器的作用已经完成,第一定时器失效,以便第二终端设备不会为了接收来自第一终端设备的CSI报告而继续监听,从而可以降低终端设备的功耗。当定时器超时时,表明第一终端设备反馈CSI报告的几率较小,或者即使后面能够接收到第一终端设备反馈的CSI报告,但由于CSI报告丧失了时效性,接收CSI报告也没有多大的意义。因此,没有监听控制信令的必要,第一定时器失效,以便第二终端设备不会为了接收来自第一终端设备的CSI报告而继续监听,从而可以降低终端设备的功耗。
第二方面公开一种通信方法,该通信方法可以应用于第一终端设备,也可以应用于第一终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片),以下以第一终端设备为例进行说明。该通信方法可以包括:接收来自第二终端设备的第一指示信息,激活第三定时器,在第三定时器的激活时间内向第二终端设备发送CSI报告。第一指示信息用于触发CSI的上报。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备可以接收来自第二终端设备的用于触发CSI上报的指示信息,激活一个定时器,在这个定时器的激活时间内可以向第二终端设备发送CSI报告。可见,在SL中引入DRX之后,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备用于触发CSI上报的指示信息的情况下,可以激活一个定时器,从而可以解决由于NR SL引入DRX,以致终端设备处于DRX的休眠期而无法向第二终端设备发送CSI报告的技术问题。由于第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的触发CSI上报的信息的情况下,可以在一个定时器的激活时间内获取传输资源向第二终端设备发送CSI报告,因此,可以保证CSI报告传输的可靠性。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一终端设备在第三定时器的激活时间内向第二终端设备发送CSI报告可以包括:在第三定时器的激活时间内,监听PSCCH或SCI,监听PSCCH或SCI用于确定第二PSSCH;向第二终端设备发送第二PSSCH,第二PSSCH包括CSI报告。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备在第三定时器的激活时间内,可以监听PSCCH或SCI,以便在第一终端设备使用模式2确定SL传输资源的情况下,可以通过感知(sensing)或部分感知(partial sensing)的方式来确定用于发送CSI报告的资源,可以保证用于发送CSI的资源为空闲资源、可用资源或干扰较小的资源,可以降低对CSI报告传输的干扰,从而可以保证CSI报告传输的可靠性。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一指示信息承载在第一PSSCH上。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一PSSCH还可以包括CSI-RS。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备除了接收到来自第二终端设备的用于触发CSI上报的指示信息之外,还可以一起接收到来自第二终端设备的CSI-RS,当需要生成CSI报告时,可以直接使用接收的CSI-RS,而不需要专门获取用于生成CSI报告的信息,可以减少第一终端设备的处理过程,从而可以保证CSI报告的时效性,更好的进行链路自适应的传输,降低第一终端设备的功耗。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一终端设备激活第三定时器可以包括:在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号后的第M个符号,激活第三定时器,M为大于或等于1的整数。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号后的符号激活第三定时器,而不是在开始接收第一PSSCH时就激活定时器。由于第一终端设备在开始接收第一PSSCH的时候还没有生成CSI报告,因此,不会发送CSI报告。可见,在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号后的符号激活第三定时器,可以减少第一终端设备监听控制信令的时间,从而可以在保证CSI报告传输可靠性的情况下降低终端设备的功耗。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一终端设备激活第三定时器可以包括:在第一PSSCH、第 一指示信息或CSI-RS的所在时隙后的第M个时隙,激活第三定时器,M为大于或等于1的整数。
本申请实施例中,以M为1举例,第一终端设备在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的所在时隙后的第一个时隙激活第三定时器,而不是在接收第一PSSCH的结束符号后的第一个符号就激活定时器。由于第一终端设备在接收第一PSSCH后需要处理时间来生成CSI报告,因此,不能立刻发送CSI报告。因此,第一PSSCH的结束符号和第一PSSCH所在时隙的下一个时隙的起始符号的时间间隔内,第一终端设备可以处于非激活状态,在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的所在时隙后的第一个时隙激活第三定时器,可以减少第一终端设备监听控制信令的时间,从而可以在保证CSI报告传输可靠性的情况下降低终端设备的功耗。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第三定时器的激活时间根据CSI报告延时上限确定。
本申请实施例中,由于信道状态信息随着时间的变化而变化,因此,在触发CSI上报的指示信息与CSI报告的发送时间之间的时间间隔较长的情况下,CSI报告可能会丧失时效性。CSI报告延时上限是保证CSI报告时效性的最大时限,当发送CSI报告的时间超过CSI报告延时上限时,发送的CSI报告由于丧失时效性而没有意义。因此,为了保证CSI报告传输的可靠性,为了保证发送的CSI报告有时效性,且为了降低第一终端设备的功耗,定时器的激活时间要考虑到CSI报告延时上限。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第三定时器的激活时间小于或等于CSI报告延时上限。
本申请实施例中,由于信道状态信息随着时间的变化而变化,因此,在触发CSI上报的指示信息与CSI报告的发送时间之间的时间间隔较长的情况下,CSI报告可能会丧失时效性。CSI报告延时上限是保证CSI报告时效性的最大时限,当发送CSI报告的时间超过CSI报告延时上限时,发送的CSI报告由于丧失时效性而没有意义。因此,为了保证CSI报告传输的可靠性,为了保证发送的CSI报告有时效性,且为了降低第一终端设备的功耗,定时器的激活时间可以小于或等于CSI报告延时上限。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一终端设备激活第三定时器可以包括:在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号后的第N个符号,激活第三定时器,N为大于CSI的计算时间的整数。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号之后CSI的计算时间后激活第三定时器,而不是在开始接收第一PSSCH时激活定时器,也不是在接收完第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS后马上激活定时器。由于第一终端设备从接收到触发CSI上报的指示信息到生成CSI报告之间需要一段时间,这段时间为CSI的计算时间,第一终端设备在这段时间内不会发送CSI报告。因此,在过了这段时间之后再激活定时器,可以使第一终端设备在这段时间内不监听控制信令,可以进一步减少第一终端设备监听控制信令的时间,从而可以在保证CSI报告传输可靠性的情况下尽可能的降低终端设备的功耗。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第三定时器的激活时间根据CSI报告延时上限和CSI的计算时间确定。
本申请实施例中,由于信道状态信息随着时间的变化而变化,因此,在触发CSI上报的指示信息与发送CSI报告之间的时间间隔较长的情况下,发送的CSI报告可能会丧失时效性。因此,定时器的激活时间需要考虑CSI报告延时上限。由于定时器是在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号之后CSI的计算时间后激活第一定时器的,因此,定时器的激活时间也需要考虑CSI的计算时间。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第三定时器的激活时间小于或等于CSI报告延时上限与CSI的计算时间的差值。
本申请实施例中,由于信道状态信息随着时间的变化而变化,因此,在触发CSI上报的指示信息与发送CSI报告之间的时间间隔较长的情况下,发送的CSI报告可能会丧失时效性。由于定时器是在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号之后CSI的计算时间后激活第一定时器的,因此,为了保证CSI报告传输的可靠性,为了保证发送的CSI报告的时效性,且为了降低第一终端设备的功耗,定时器的激活时间可以小于或等于CSI报告延时上限与CSI的计算时间的差值。
作为一种可能的实施方式,该通信方法还可以包括:在第一PSSCH、第一指示信息或CSI-RS的结束符号后的第一个符号,激活第四定时器,在第四定时器的激活时间内不监听PSCCH或SCI。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备在接收到触发CSI上报的指示信息到生成CSI报告之间需要一段时间,第一终端设备在这段时间内不会发送CSI报告。但当第一终端设备在这段时间内处于DRX的激活期时,第一终端设备在这段时间内需要进行监听,因此,可以在这段时间内使用另一个定时器,以便第一终端设备在这另一个定时器的激活时间内可以不监听控制信令,从而可以进一步降低终端设备的功耗。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一指示信息可以包括第二级SCI,第二级SCI可以包括CSI请求字段,CSI请求字段用于触发CSI的上报。
作为一种可能的实施方式,该通信方法还可以包括:当CSI报告发送完成时,确定第三定时器失效。
本申请实施例中,当第一终端设备发送完CSI报告时,表明这个定时器的作用已经完成,针对CSI上报的监听已经没有意义,因此,第三定时器失效,以便第一终端设备不会针对该CSI上报进行不必要的监听,从而可以降低终端设备的功耗。
作为一种可能的实施方式,该通信方法还可以包括:根据CSI-RS生成CSI报告。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备可以直接使用接收的CSI-RS生成CSI报告,而不需要专门获取用于生成CSI报告的信息,可以减少处理过程,从而保证CSI报告的时效性,更好的进行链路自适应的传输,可以降低终端设备的功耗。

本申请实施例中,第一终端设备在CSI报告延时上限内可以向第二终端设备发送CSI报告,可以保证CSI报告的时效性。此外,第一终端设备处于DRX时,当CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集时,第一终端设备在CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间的交集中发送CSI报告,在第一终端设备和第二终端设备的DRX对齐的时候,以便于第二终端设备接收CSI报告。可以保证CSI报告的成功传输以及链路自适应。
作为一种可能的实施方式,当CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间不存在交集时,第三PSSCH的资源为通过随机选择确定的资源。
本申请实施例中,当CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间不存在交集时,表明第一终端设备在CSI报告延时上限内均处于DRX的休眠期,第一终端设备无法使用感知或部分感 知的方式确定传输资源,由于无法获取感知结果则无法保证确定的传输资源的可靠性和干扰情况,因此,第一终端设备可以通过随机选择的方式确定用于发送CSI报告的资源,以便在第一终端设备处于DRX的休眠期的情况下,可以保证CSI报告的正常传输。此时随机选择的方式可以和感知或部分感知的方式不在一个资源池,避免终端设备传输数据的造成的干扰不同带来的不公平问题。
作为一种可能的实施方式,当CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集时,第三PSSCH的资源为通过感知或部分感知确定的资源。
本申请实施例中,当CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集时,第一终端设备可以通过感知或部分感知来确定传输资源,可以保证用于发送CSI的资源为空闲资源、可用资源或干扰较小的资源,可以减少对CSI报告传输的干扰,从而可以保证CSI报告传输的可靠性。
作为一种可能的实施方式,当CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集,且第二比例大于第七阈值时,第三PSSCH的资源为通过感知或部分感知确定的资源,第二比例为DRX的激活时间和感知窗口的重叠时间与感知窗口的比例。
本申请实施例中,当CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集,且第一比例大于第七阈值时,表示感知结果可以信任,由于感知结果变少带来的干扰是有限的,可以使用感知方式确定资源。
作为一种可能的实施方式,当CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集,且第二比例小于或等于第七阈值时,第三PSSCH的资源为通过随机选择确定的资源,第二比例为DRX的激活时间和感知窗口的重叠时间与感知窗口的比例。
本申请实施例中,当CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集,且第一比例小于或等于第七阈值时,表示通过感知方式确定的结果过少以致无法保证通过感知确定的资源的可靠性,可以使用随机选择方式确定资源。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第二指示信息承载在第四PSSCH。
本申请实施例中,第二指示信息是通过物理侧行共享信道进行传输的。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第四PSSCH还可以包括CSI-RS。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备除了接收到来自第二终端设备的用于触发CSI上报的指示信息之外,还一起接收到来自第二终端设备的CSI-RS。在需要生成CSI报告的情况下,可以直接使用接收的CSI-RS,而不需要专门获取用于生成CSI报告的信息,可以减少信息获取过程,从而可以保证CSI报告的时效性,以便可以更好的进行链路自适应的传输,可以降低终端设备的功耗。

本申请实施例中,由于信道状态信息随着时间的变化而变化,CSI报告体现了信道状态,具有时效性。因此,第一终端设备接收到触发CSI上报的信息与上报CSI报告之间的时间间隔不能太长,太长的话CSI报告可能会丧失时效性。CSI报告延时上限为能够保证CSI报告时效性的最大时间。第二终端设备可以向第一终端设备配置CSI报告延时上限,由于第一终端设备生成CSI报告需要CSI的计算时间,而第一终端设备在DRX的休眠时间和生成CSI报告的过程中无法向第二终端设备发送CSI报告,因此,第二终端设备向第一终端设备配置的CSI报告延时上限可以大于DRX的休眠时间与CSI的计算时间之和,以便可以避免第一终端设备无法通过感知或部分感知的方式确定的资源发送CSI报告的情况,可以保证第一终端设备有足够的时间以及较好的传输资源发送CSI报告,从而可以提高CSI报告传输的可靠性。
第五方面公开一种通信方法,该通信方法可以应用于第一终端设备,也可以应用于第一终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片),以下以第一终端设备为例进行说明。该通信方法可以包括:接收来自第二终端设备的CSI报告延时上限,CSI报告延时上限大于DRX的休眠时间与CSI的计算时间之和。
本申请实施例中,由于信道状态信息会随着时间的变化而变化,CSI报告体现了信道状态,具有时效性。因此,第一终端设备接收到触发CSI上报的信息与发送CSI报告之间的时间间隔不能太长,太长的话CSI报告可能会丧失时效性。CSI报告延时上限为能够保证CSI报告时效性的最大时间。第一终端设备可以接收第二终端设备配置的CSI报告延时上限,如果第一终端设备接收到触发CSI上报的指示信息时处于DRX的激活期,而此时距离DRX的休眠期之间的时间间隔小于或等于CSI的计算时间,由于第一终端设备生成CSI报告的时间需要CSI的计算时间,因此,第一终端设备在这个DRX周期的激活期内而无法生成CSI报告,当生成或准备好CSI报告可以发送时第一终端设备已经处于DRX的休眠期,第一终端设备无法通过感知或部分感知的方式确定传输资源,需要等到下一个DRX周期的激活期。当等到下一个DRX的激活期时,如果距离接收到触发CSI上报的指示信息的时间已经大于或等于CSI报告延时上限,则CSI报告丧失了时效性,上报将没有意义。因此,配置的CSI报告延时上限可以大于DRX的休眠时间与CSI的计算时间之和,以便可以避免第一终端设备无法通过感知或部分感知确定的资源发送CSI报告的情况,可以保证第一终端设备有足够的时间以及较好的传输资源发送CSI报告,从而可以提高CSI报告传输的可靠性。
第六方面公开一种通信方法,该通信方法可以应用于第二终端设备,也可以应用于第二终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片),以下以第二终端设备为例进行说明。该通信方法可以包括:向第一终端设备发送第一时长,第一时长大于或等于CSI报告延时上限或CSI的计算时间,第一时长为非激活定时器的时长。

第七方面公开一种通信方法,该通信方法可以应用于第一终端设备,也可以应用于第一终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片),以下以第一终端设备为例进行说明。该通信方法可以包括:接收来自第二终端设备的第一时长,第一时长大于或等于CSI报告延时上限或CSI的计算时间,第一时长为非激活定时器的时长。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备在DRX的激活期接收到触发CSI上报的信息之后,如果这个DRX周期的激活期内无法准备好(即生成)或刚好准备好CSI报告,则在第一终端设备准备好CSI报告准备发送时,第一终端设备处于DRX的休眠期,以致第一终端设备无法根据感知或部分感知的方式确定传输资源,或者由于感知的时间变短以致确定的传输资源冲突的概率增加,从而无法上报CSI报告,或者无法保证CSI报告传输的可靠性,需要等到下一个DRX周期的激活期再发送CSI报告,而这样不仅延时较大,而且如果等待到下一个DRX周期的激活期时距离接收到触发CSI上报的指示信息的时间等于或大于CSI报告延时上限,则CSI报告由于丧失时效性而没有必要进行上报。因此,第一终端设备可以接收第二终端设备配置的非激活定时器的时长,这个时长可以大于或等于CSI报告延时上限或CSI的计算时间。第一终端设备接收到触发CSI上报的指示信息之后可以激活非激活定时器,在非激活定时器的激活时间内第一终端设备可以通过感知或部分感知的方式确定用于传输CSI报告的资源,以及通过确定的资源向第二终端设备发送CSI报告。此外,为了保证第一终端设备有足够的时间,这个时长可以大于或等于CSI报告延时上限或CSI的计算时间。可见,可以提高CSI报告传输的可靠性。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第一时长可以包括:当CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的周期的激活时间之间的重叠时间小于CSI的计算时间时,接收来自第二终端设备的第一时长。
本申请实施例中,当CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠时间小于CSI的计算时间时,第一终端设备接收到用于触发CSI上报的信息之后,当准备好CSI报告时,第一终端设备将处于DRX的休眠期,以致第一终端设备无法根据感知或部分感知的方式确定传输资源,或者由于感知的时间变短以致确定的传输资源冲突的概率增加,从而无法上报CSI报告,或者无法保证CSI报告传输的可靠性,降低了CSI报告的时效性。因此,当CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠时间小于CSI的计算时间时,第一终端设备可以接收到第二终端设备配置的非激活定时器的时长,这个时长大于或等于CSI报告延时上限或CSI的计算时间,以便第一终端设备接收到来自第二终端设备用于触发CSI上报的指示信息之后,能够在非激活定时器的激活时间内可以通过感知或部分感知的方式确定上报 CSI报告的资源,以及第一终端设备有足够的时间生成CSI报告,从而可以保证CSI报告传输的可靠性。
第八方面公开一种通信方法,该通信方法可以应用于第一终端设备,也可以应用于第一终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片),以下以第一终端设备为例进行说明。该通信方法可以包括:接收来自第二终端设备的第三指示信息,第三指示信息用于触发CSI的上报;当CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠长度大于或等于第一时间时,向第二终端设备发送CSI报告。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备接收到来自第二终端设备的用于触发CSI上报的信息之后,可以先判断CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠时间是否大于或等于(或者大于)第一时间,当判断出CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠时间大于或等于(或者大于)第一时间时,表明第一终端设备可以在这个DRX周期的激活期内生成CSI报告以及通过感知或部分感知的方式确定用于传输CSI报告的资源,可以向第二终端设备发送CSI报告,可以提高CSI报告传输的可靠性。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一时间可以为CSI的计算时间、第一阈值或CSI报告延时上限的第一比例。
本申请实施例中,考虑了CSI的计算时间,可以保证第一终端设备有足够的时间生成CSI报告。第一阈值和第一比例可以是网络设备配置的,也可以是预配置的,也可以是第一终端设备自适应确定的,也可以是第二终端设备配置的。但为了保证第一终端设备有足够的时间生成CSI报告,第一阈值和CSI报告延时上限的第一比例要大于或等于CSI的计算时间。
作为一种可能的实施方式,该通信方法还可以包括:当CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间的重叠长度小于第一时间时,确定不上报CSI报告,或者切换DRX的周期,切换后的DRX的激活时间与CSI报告延时上限之间的重叠长度大于或等于第一时间。
本申请实施例中,当判断出CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠时间小于第一时间时,表明第一终端设备在这个DRX周期的激活期内无法生成CSI报告,可以不向第二终端设备发送CSI报告,可以减少不必要的处理,从而可以降低终端设备的功耗。也可以调整DRX的周期,使调整后的DRX的激活时间与CSI报告延时上限之间的重叠长度大于或等于第一时间,以便第一终端设备在调整后的DRX周期的激活期内可以生成CSI报告以及可以通过感知或部分感知的方式确定用于传输CSI报告的资源,可以向第二终端设备发送CSI报告,从而可以提高CSI报告传输的可靠性。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第三指示信息可以包括:接收来自第二终端设备的第三指示信息和第三指示信息的优先级的值;第一终端设备切换DRX的周期可以包括:当该优先级的值小于第二阈值时,切换DRX的周期。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备接收到用于触发CSI上报的指示信息的同时,还可以一起接收到这个指示信息的优先级的值,当判断出CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠时间小于第一时间时,可以先判断这个指示信息的优先级的值是否小于第二阈值。在判断出这个指示信息的优先级的值小于第二阈值的情况下,表明这个CSI报告比较重要,为了保证这个CSI报告的正常传输,可以调整DRX的周期,从而可以保证重要CSI报告传输的可靠性。其中,优先级的值越小对应的优先级的级别越高。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第三指示信息承载在第五PSSCH。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第五PSSCH还可以包括CSI-RS。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备除了接收到来自第二终端设备的用于触发CSI上报的指示信息之外,还一起接收到来自第二终端设备的CSI-RS,以便在第一终端设备有需要的情况下,可以根据CSI-RS生成CSI报告,而不需要专门获取用于生成CSI报告的信息,可以减少处理过程,从而保证CSI报告的时效性,更好的进行链路自适应的传输,可以降低终端设备的功耗。
作为一种可能的实施方式,该通信方法还可以包括:根据CSI-RS生成CSI报告。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备可以直接根据接收的CSI-RS生成CSI报告,而不需要专门获取用于生成CSI报告的信息,可以减少处理过程,从而保证CSI报告的时效性,更好的进行链路自适应的传输,可以降低终端设备的功耗。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第三指示信息可以包括第二级SCI,第二级SCI可以包括CSI请求字段,CSI请求字段用于触发CSI的上报。
第九方面公开一种通信方法,该通信方法可以应用于第一终端设备,也可以应用于第一终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片),以下以第一终端设备为例进行说明。该通信方法可以包括:接收来自第二终端设备的第四指示信息,第四指示信息用于触发CSI的上报;当CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间的重叠长度小于第一时间时,切换DRX的周期,切换后的DRX的激活时间与CSI报告延时上限之间的重叠长度大于或等于第一时间。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备接收到来自第二终端设备的用于触发CSI上报的信息之后,可以先判断CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠时间是否小于(或者小于或等于)第一时间,当判断出CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠时间小于(或者小于或等于)第一时间时,表明第一终端设备在这个DRX周期的激活期内无法生成CSI报告,可以调整DRX的周期,使调整后的DRX的激活时间与CSI报告延时上限之间的重叠长度大于或等于第一时间,以便第一终端设备在调整后的DRX周期的激活期内可以生成CSI报告以及可以通过感知或部分感知的方式确定用于传输CSI报告的资源,可以向第二终端设备发送CSI报告,从而可以提高CSI报告传输的可靠性。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一时间为CSI的计算时间、第一阈值或所述CSI报告延时上限的第一比例。
本申请实施例中,考虑了CSI的计算时间,可以保证第一终端设备有足够的时间生成CSI报告。第一阈值和第一比例可以是网络设备配置的,也可以是预配置的,也可以是第一终端设备自适应确定的,也可以是第二终端设备配置的。但为了保证第一终端设备有足够的时间生成CSI报告,第一阈值和CSI报告延时上限的第一比例要大于或等于CSI的计算时间。
作为一种可能的实施方式,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第四指示信息可以包括:接收来自第二终端设备的第四指示信息和第四指示信息的优先级的值;第一终端设备切换DRX的周期可以包括:当该优先级的值小于第三阈值时,切换DRX的周期。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备接收到用于触发CSI上报的指示信息的同时,还可以一起接收到这个指示信息的优先级的值,当判断出CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠时间小于第一时间时,可以先判断这个指示信息的优先级的值是否小于第三阈值。在判断出这个指示信息的优先级的值小于第三阈值的情况下,表明这个CSI报告比较重要,为了保证这个CSI报告的正常传输,可以调整DRX的周期,从而可以保证重要CSI报告传输的可靠性。其中,优先级的值越小对应的优先级的级别越高。
第十方面公开一种通信方法,该通信方法可以应用于第一终端设备,也可以应用于第一 终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片),以下以第一终端设备为例进行说明。该通信方法可以包括:接收来自第二终端设备的数据包和数据包的优先级的值;当优先级的值小于第四阈值时,去使能DRX。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备接收到来自第二终端设备的数据包和数据包的优先级的值之后,可以先判断这个优先级的值是否小于第四阈值。在判断出这个优先级的值小于第四阈值时,表明该数据包对应的业务比较重要,可以去使能DRX。由于在业务重要的情况下,第一终端设备处于DRX会存在无法接收数据的风险,因此,可以去使能DRX,以便可以保证重要业务传输的可靠性。其中,优先级的值越小对应的优先级的级别越高。
第十一方面公开一种通信方法,该通信方法可以应用于第一终端设备,也可以应用于第一终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片),以下以第一终端设备为例进行说明。该通信方法可以包括:接收来自第二终端设备的数据包和数据包的优先级的值;根据优先级的值调整DRX的周期。
本申请实施例中,第一终端设备接收到来自第二终端设备的数据包和数据包的优先级之后,可以根据优先级的值调整DRX的周期。例如,在数据包的优先级的值较低的情况下,可以增加DRX的周期或DRX的周期的激活时间,以便可以保证数据包对应业务传输的可靠性。再例如,在数据包的优先级的值较高的情况下,可以减少DRX的周期或DRX的周期的激活时间,以便可以减少第一终端设备处于激活期的时间,从而可以降低终端设备的功耗。其中,优先级的值越小对应的优先级的级别越高。
第十二方面公开一种通信方法,该通信方法可以应用于第一终端设备,也可以应用于第一终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片),以下以第一终端设备为例进行说明。该通信方法可以包括:当第一终端设备处于DRX时,根据第一比例确定资源选择方式,第一比例为DRX的激活时间和感知窗口的重叠时间与感知窗口的比例;当第一比例大于第五阈值时,资源选择方式为感知方式,当第一比例小于或等于第五阈值,资源选择方式为随机选择方式。
本申请实施例中,当第一终端设备处于DRX时,第一终端设备要发送数据时,会被触发进行资源选择。由于第一终端设备处于DRX,并不能时刻处于接收状态,因此,当DRX的激活时间和感知窗口的重叠时间与感知窗口的比例小于1时,第一终端设备在感知窗口的感知的结果要少于没有进入DRX的终端设备,以致根据该感知结果确定的资源发生资源冲突的概率较大,对其他终端设备产生干扰的概率较大。当DRX激活时间和感知窗口的重叠时间与感知窗口的比例大于第五阈值时,表示感知结果可以信任,由于感知结果变少带来的干扰是有限的,可以使用感知方式确定资源。当DRX激活时间和感知窗口的重叠时间与感知窗口的比例小于或等于第五阈值时,表示通过感知方式确定的结果过少以致无法保证通过感知确定的资源的可靠性,可以使用随机选择方式确定资源。
作为一种可能的实现方式,感知方式为感知或部分感知。
本申请实施例中,感知方式可以为感知,也可以为部分感知。感知窗口是连续的一段时间。部分感知窗口可以是连续的一段时间,也可以是非连续的一些时隙的集合。第一终端设备处于DRX,会导致感知或部分感知的感知结果减少,因此,根据该感知结果确定的资源发生资源冲突的概率增加,对其他终端设备产生干扰的概率增加。
作为一种可能的实现方式,随时选择方式使用第一资源池,感知方式使用第二资源池,第一资源池与第二资源池不同。
本申请实施例中,随时选择方式有专有的资源池,不与进行感知方式共享资源池。
作为一种可能的实现方式,第五阈值由网络设备配置。
本申请实施例中,第五阈值可以网络设备配置的。在网络设备配置了第五阈值的情况下,第一终端设备可以根据第五阈值来确定资源选择方式,在网络设备没有配置第五阈值的情况下,第一终端设备使用感知方式确定传输资源。

具体实施方式
本申请实施例公开了一种通信方法、装置及计算机可读存储介质,用于保证CSI报告传输的可靠性。以下分别进行详细说明。
为了更好地理解本申请实施例,下面先对本申请实施例的应用场景进行描述。请参阅图1, 图1是本申请实施例公开的一种5G新无线(radio new,NR)Uu口的网络架构示意图。如图1所示,该网络架构可以包括接入网设备101和终端设备102。接入网设备101与终端设备102之间的通信包括下行通信和上行通信。上行通信即通过上行链路进行的通信,下行通信通过下行链路进行的通信。在下行通信中,接入网设备101通过PDCCH向终端设备102发送下行控制信令,以及通过物理下行共享信道(physical downlink shared channel,PDSCH)向终端设备102发送下行数据和寻呼。终端设备102通过PDCCH接收来自网络设备101的下行控制信令,以及通过PDSCH接收来自网络设备101的下行数据和寻呼。下行控制信令可以包括下行链路控制信息(downlink control information,DCI)。DCI可以包括解调译码相应PDSCH所需要的参数。
由于终端设备处于接收状态所需功耗较大,因此,5G NR中,为了降低终端设备的功耗,引入了DRX。请参阅图2,图2是本申请实施例公开的一种DRX周期(cycle)的示意图。如图2所示,DRX周期可以包括激活期和休眠期。激活期的时长可以称为激活时间,也可以称为持续(on duration)时间。休眠期的时长可以称为休眠时间。终端设备处于DRX的激活期时,终端设备可以监听PDCCH接收信息。终端设备处于DRX的休眠期时,终端设备不监听PDCCH。
接入网设备可以为终端设备配置DRX功能,终端设备可以根据该DRX功能监听PDCCH。在终端设备处于无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)连接态时,如果被配置了DRX功能,则终端设备对全部激活的服务小区可以根据DRX的规则进行非连续监听;如果未被配置DRX功能,则终端设备按照监听PDCCH的规则监听PDCCH。
接入网设备通过配置下述参数来控制终端设备的DRX:
DRX持续时间(drx-onDurationTimer)为一个DRX周期内开始的一段时间,即图2中激活期对应的激活时间。DRX持续时间可以为1/32ms(子毫秒(subMilliSeconds))的倍数。DRX持续时间也可以为ms(毫秒(milliSecond))。例如,ms1表示1ms,ms2表示2ms,以此类推。
DRX时隙偏移(drx-SlotOffset)为开启drx-onDurationTimer前的时延。DRX时隙偏移的取值以1/32ms为单位,0表示0ms,1表示1/32ms,2表示2/32ms,以此类推。
DRX非激活时间(drx-InactivityTimer)为检测到一个新上行链路(uplink,UL)或下行链路(downlink,DL)后,监听(monitor)PDCCH的持续时间。DRX非激活时间为1ms的整数倍。在RRC配置的参数中,ms0表示0ms,ms1表示1ms,ms2表示2ms,以此类推。
DRX重传DL(drx-RetransmissionDL)为对于每个DL混合自动重传请求(hybrid automatic repeat request,HARQ)进程,直到接收到一个DL重传的最大持续时间。DRX重传DL的取值为传输块(transport block,TB)被接收的部分带宽(bandwidth part,BWP)的时隙个数。其中,sl0对应0时隙,sl1对应1个时隙,以此类推。
DRX重传UL(drx-RetransmissionUL)为对于每个UL HARQ进程,直到接收到一个UL重传的最大持续时间。DRX重传UL的取值为TB被传输的BWP的时隙个数。其中,sl0对应0时隙,sl1对应1个时隙,以此类推。
DRX长周期起始时隙(drx-LongCycleStartOffset)表示长DRX周期(long DRX cycle)和DRX开始时隙(drx-StartOffset)。DRX开始时隙即DRX周期的开始子帧。长DRX周期以ms为单位,DRX开始时隙是1ms的整数倍。
DRX短周期(drx-ShortCycle)的取值为ms级。ms1表示1ms,ms2表示2ms,以此类推。DRX长周期的值应为DRX短周期的倍数。DRX短周期为可选地。
DRX短周期时间(drx-ShortCycleTimer)为终端设备遵循DRX短周期的持续时间。DRX 短周期时间的取值为DRX短周期的倍数。其中,DRX短周期时间取值为1对应drx-ShortCycle,DRX短周期时间取值为2对应2*drx-ShortCycle,以此类推。DRX短周期时间为可选地。
DRX HARQ往返时间(round trip time,RTT)时间DL(drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL)为针对每个DL HAEQ进程,终端设备期待一个HARQ重传的DL调度之前的最小持续时间。DRX HARQRTT时间DL用TB接收所在BWP的符号的数量来取值。
DRX HARQ RTT时间UL(drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerUL)为针对每个UL HAEQ进程,终端设备期待一个UL HARQ重传的调度之前的最小持续时间。用TB传输所在BWP的符号的数量来取值。
当一个DRX被配置时,激活时间可以包括drx-onDurationTimer、drx-InactivityTimer、drx-RetransmissionTimerDL或drx-RetransmissionTimerUL。
终端设备被配置DRX功能之后,如果在一个被配置的下行调度中一个媒体介入控制(media access control,MAC)协议数据单元(protocol data unit,PDU)被接收,则终端设备在携带DL HARQ反馈的相应传输结束后的第一个符号开始相应HARQ进程的drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL,停止相应HARQ进程的drx-RetransmissionTimerDL。如果在一个被配置的上行调度中一个MAC PDU被发送,则终端设备在相应物理上行共享信道(physical uplink share channel,PUSCH)传输的第一个重复结束后的第一个符号开始相应HARQ进程的drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerUL,停止相应HARQ进程的drx-RetransmissionTimerUL。如果一个drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL失效,且相应HARQ进程的数据未被成功译码,则终端设备在drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL失效后的第一个符号开始相应HARQ进程的drx-RetransmissionTimerDL。如果一个drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerUL失效,则终端设备在drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerUL失效后的第一个符号开始相应HARQ进程的drx-RetransmissionTimerUL。如果一个DRX命令MAC控制元素(control element,CE)或一个长DRX命令MAC CE被接收,则终端设备停止drx-onDurationTimer,以及停止drx-InactivityTimer。在drx-InactivityTimer失效或者一个DRX命令MAC CE被接收的情况下,如果短DRX周期被配置,则终端设备在DRX命令MAC CE接收后的第一个符号或者在drx-InactivityTimer失效后的第一个符号开启或重启drx-ShortCycleTimer,使用短DRX周期,否则使用长DRX周期。如果drx-ShortCycleTimer失效,则终端设备使用长DRX周期。如果一个长DRX命令MAC CE被接收,则终端设备停止drx-ShortCycleTimer,使用长DRX周期。如果短DRX周期被使用,且[(子帧数(subframe number,SFN)×10)+SFN]mod(drx-ShortCycle)=(drx-StartOffset)mod(drx-ShortCycle),或者如果使用长DRX周期,且[(SFN×10)+SFN]mod(drx-LongCycle)=drx-StartOffset,则终端设备在一个子帧的开始drx-SlotOffset之后开启drx-onDurationTimer。如果终端设备处于DRX的激活期,则终端设备监听PDCCH。如果终端设备处于DRX的激活期,且PDDCH指示了一个DL传输,则终端设备在携带DL HARQ反馈的相应传输结束后的第一个符号开始相应HARQ进程的drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL,停止相应HARQ进程的drx-RetransmissionTimerDL。如果终端设备处于DRX的激活期,且PDCCH指示一个UL传输,则终端设备在相应PUSCH传输的第一个重复结束后的第一个符号开始相应HARQ进程的drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerUL,停止相应HARQ进程的drx-RetransmissionTimerUL。如果终端设备处于DRX的激活期,且PDCCH指示一个新的传输(DL或UL),则终端设备在PDCCH接收后的第一个符号开启或重启drx-InactivityTimer。
接入网设备可以通过RRC层的参数配置来激活/去激活终端设备中的DRX。
请参阅图3,图3是本申请实施例公开的一种终端设备与终端设备之间进行通信的示意图。如图3所示,终端设备之间可以通过SL进行通信。终端设备之间通过PSSCH和PSCCH进行通信。PSCCH可以承载第一级SCI等控制信息,PSSCH可以承载第二级SCI、参考信号和数据等。
在NR车联网(vehicle to everything,V2X)中定义了两种资源分配模式。模式1:由接入网设备调度终端设备要使用的SL传输资源,即终端设备有发送数据的需求的情况下,终端设备需要向接入网设备请求资源,接入网设备根据终端设备的请求为其分配资源。模式2:终端设备在网络设备配置的SL资源池或者预配置的SL资源池中确定SL传输资源,即终端设备可以通过感知(sensing)方式确定SL传输资源,也即终端设备通过译码其他终端设备的SCI或者进行SL测量来获取其他终端设备资源占用的信息,基于资源池中的资源和其他终端设备占用的资源以及SL测量结果确定SL传输资源。其中,SL测量即基于译码SCI时相应SL解调参考信号(demodulation reference signal,DMRS)的参考信号接收功率(reference signal receiving power,RSRP)的值。资源池是时频资源的集合。终端设备在一个资源池中进行工作,即模式2下终端设备可以通过感知的方式去选择资源发送数据,和/或在该资源池中接收数据。
通过上述分析可知,NR Uu口中已引入DRX,但SL中并没有引入DRX。然而,由于Uu口为终端设备与接入网设备之间的通信,接入网设备不需要处于DRX,终端设备可以处于DRX。而SL中,发送终端设备与接收终端设备均可以处于DRX。此外,在NR Uu口中,终端设备处于DRX时,终端设备用于传输CSI报告的资源由接入网设备调度。而SL中,当终端设备处于DRX时,用于传输CSI报告的资源如何确定已成为一个亟待解决的技术问题。请参阅图4,图4是本申请公开的一种SL中的终端设备处于DRX时在CSI报告延时上限内上报CSI报告的示意图。如图4所示,终端设备在T1时刻接收到用于触发CSI上报的信息,可见,CSI报告延时上限的一部分处于DRX的激活期,CSI报告延时上限的另一部分处于DRX的休眠期,而第一终端设备在DRX的休眠期无法通过感知的方式确定用于上报CSI的资源。可见,在SL中引入DRX之后,终端设备无法使用现有的CSI报告上报的规则进行上报,因此,终端设备处于DRX时,如何进行CSI报告的上报已成为一个亟待解决的技术问题。由于终端设备处于DRX,在触发CSI上报后,可能会由于处于休眠状态而无法接收上报的CSI报告。如何接收CSI报告的上报也称为一个亟待解决的技术问题。
为了更好地理解本申请实施例公开的一种通信方法、装置及计算机可读存储介质,下面先对本申请实施例使用的网络架构进行描述。请参阅图5,图5是本申请实施例公开的一种网络架构示意图。如图5所示,该网络架构可以包括终端设备1和终端设备2。终端设备1与终端设备2之间可以通过SL进行通信。终端设备1和/或终端设备2可以作为发送端发送信息,也可以作为接收端接收信息。终端设备1和/或终端设备2可以处于DRX。
例如,请参阅图6,图6是本申请实施例公开的一种车联网(vehicle to everything,V2X)的网络架构图。如图6所示,V2X可以包括车与车(vehicle to vehicle,V2V)的通信、车与行人(vehicle to pedestrian,V2P)的通信、车与基础设施(vehicle to infrastructure,V2I)的通信、车与网络(vehicle to network,V2N)的通信。
应理解,终端设备1与终端设备2可以是同样的设备,也可以是不同的设备。
应理解,图6所示的网络架构只是对图5所示的网络设备的示例性说明,并不对其构成限定。
应理解,图6所示的网络架构只是示例性说明,并不对其构成限定。
终端设备,又可以称之为用户设备(user equipment,UE)、移动台(mobile station,MS)、 移动终端(mobile terminal,MT)等,是一种向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备。终端设备可以为手持终端、笔记本电脑、用户单元(subscriber unit)、蜂窝电话(cellular phone)、智能电话(smart phone)、无线数据卡、个人数字助理(personal digital assistant,PDA)电脑、平板型电脑、无线调制解调器(modem)、手持设备(handheld)、膝上型电脑(laptop computer)、无绳电话(cordless phone)或者无线本地环路(wireless local loop,WLL)台、机器类型通信(machine type communication,MTC)终端、可穿戴设备(例如智能手表、智能手环、计步器等)、车载设备(例如,汽车、自行车、电动车、飞机、船舶、火车、高铁等)、虚拟现实(virtual reality,VR)设备、增强现实(augmented reality,AR)设备、工业控制(industrial control)中的无线终端、智能家居设备(例如,冰箱、电视、空调、电表等)、智能机器人、车间设备、无人驾驶(self driving)中的无线终端、远程手术(remote medical surgery)中的无线终端、智能电网(smart grid)中的无线终端、运输安全(transportation safety)中的无线终端、智慧城市(smart city)中的无线终端,或智慧家庭(smart home)中的无线终端、飞行设备(例如,智能机器人、热气球、无人机、飞机)或其他可以进行通信的设备。
基于上述网络架构,请参阅图7,图7是本申请实施例公开的一种通信方法的流程示意图。如图7所示,该通信方法可以包括以下步骤。其中,下面步骤中由终端设备执行的功能,也可以由终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片)来执行。
701、第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送第一指示信息。
相应地,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第一指示信息。
在第二终端设备有业务需求的情况下,第二终端设备可以向第一终端设备发送第一指示信息。第一指示信息用于触发CSI的上报,可以理解第一指示信息具有触发第一终端设备向第二终端设备上报CSI报告的功能。
在一种实现方式中,第一指示信息可以承载在第一PSSCH上,可以理解第一指示信息可以通过物理侧行共享信道进行传输。在一种情况下,第一指示信息可以包括第二级SCI,第二级SCI可以包括CSI请求字段,CSI请求字段用于触发CSI的上报。CSI请求字段的值可以为1,也可以为0,在此不加限定。在另一种情况下,第一PSSCH可以包括第二级SCI,第二级SCI可以包括CSI请求字段,第一指示信息可以为CSI请求字段。在又一种情况下,第一指示信息可以为第一PSSCH中的一个指示符。在又一种情况下,第一指示信息可以为第一PSSCH中的参考信号,参考信号可以为CSI-RS等。在又一种情况下,第一指示信息可以为第一PSSCH中的一个比特。例如,当这个比特为0或1时,用于触发CSI的上报。应理解,上述对第一指示信息的限定只是示例性的说明,并不对第一指示信息构成限定,第一指示信息可以为具有触发CSI上报功能的任何形式的信息、字段、比特、信令、消息等。
可选地,当第一指示信息承载在第一PSSCH上时,第一PSSCH还可以包括CSI-RS。
在另一种实现方式中,第一指示信息也可以承载在PSCCH上。
可选地,当第一指示信息承载在PSCCH上时,第二终端设备还可以向第一终端设备发送承载有CSI-RS的PSSCH。
702、第二终端设备激活第一定时器。
703、第二终端设备在第一定时器的激活时间内,监听PSCCH或SCI。
当第二终端设备处于DRX时,第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送第一指示信息之后,可以激活第一定时器。第一定时器可以是一个固定的定时器,这个定时器的时间可以是固定的,因此,激活第一定时器可以理解为启动第一定时器,也可以理解为让第一定时器开始计时。 第一定时器可以是一个固定的定时器,但这个定时器的时间可以根据需要设置,因此,当第一定时器的时间不是所需时间时,激活第一定时器可以理解为设置第一定时器的激活时间,以及启动第一定时器。第一定时器也可以是一个变动的定时器,因此,激活第一定时器可以理解为确定第一定时器,以及启动第一定时器。在确定的第一定时器的时间不是所需时间的情况下,可以先设置第一定时器的激活时间,之后再启动第一定时器。此外,当不存在定时器时,还需要先创建第一定时器。第一定时器启动时的时间可以为0,也可以为激活时间。当第一定时器启动时的时间为0时,第一定时器计时可以理解为随着时间的变化定时器的时间不断增加,直到定时器失效。当第一定时器启动时的时间为激活时间时,第一定时器计时可以理解为随着时间的变化定时器的时间不断减少,直到定时器失效。应理解,上述对第一定时器的说明只是示例性的,并不对第一定时器构成限定。定时器的激活时间可以理解为定时器能够计时、工作的最长时间。例如,一个5s的定时器,5s为这个定时器的激活时间,当这个定时器从0开始计时时,这个计时器计时到5s时,这个计时器将停止计时,也即这个计时器停止。要让这个计时器再次进行计时,需要重启这个计时器,或者使能这个定时器。
终端设备处于DRX,可以理解为终端设备被配置了DRX功能,也可以理解为终端设备使能了DRX,还可以理解为终端设备具有DRX功能,在此不加限定。
在一种实现方式中,第二终端设备可以在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第M个符号激活第一定时器,可以理解为在第一指示信息发送完后的第M个符号激活第一定时器,也可以理解为在发送第一指示信息最后一个符号后的第M个符号激活第一定时器。M为大于或等于1的整数。可见,第二终端设备可以在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第一个符号激活第一定时器,也可以在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第二个符号激活第一定时器,还可以在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第三个符号激活第一定时器。当M等于1时,第二终端设备可以在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第1个符号激活第一定时器,由于第一指示信息用于触发CSI的上报,第二终端设备在发送用于触发CSI上报的指示信息后即激活第一定时器,以便于接收CSI报告。提高了接收CSI报告的概率,保证链路自适应的正常工作,提高了***性能和***通信效率。请参阅图8,图8是本申请实施例公开的一种第一定时器激活的示意图。如图8所示,激活第一定时器的时间为T1,第一定时器失效的时间为T2,第二终端设备在第一定时器的工作时间内一直进行监听。
第二终端设备也可以在第一指示信息的所在时隙后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器,可以理解为在第一指示信息后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器,也可以理解为在第一指示信息发送完后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器,还可以理解为在发送第一指示信息的最后一个符号后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器,还可以理解为在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器。当M等于1时,第二终端设备可以在第一指示信息的所在时隙后的第1个时隙激活第一定时器,由于第一指示信息用于触发CSI的上报,第二终端设备在发送第一指示信息后的第一个时隙激活第一定时器,以便于接收CSI报告,在第一指示信息的结束符号到第一指示信息所在时隙后的第一个时隙的起始符号的时间间隔内,第二终端设备可以处理非激活时间。提高了***性能和***通信效率,更有利于第二终端设备的节电,避免不必要的功耗,终端设备实现更简单。
当第一指示信息承载在第一PSSCH上时,第二终端设备也可以在第一PSSCH的结束符号后的第M个符号激活第一定时器,可以理解为在第一PSSCH发送完后的第M个符号激活第一定时器,也可以理解为在发送第一PSSCH最后一个符号后的第M个符号激活第一定时器。当M等于1时,第二终端设备可以在第一PSSCH的结束符号后的第1个符号激活第一定时器,由 于PSSCH承载了用于触发CSI的上报的指示信息,第二终端设备在发送用于触发CSI上报的指示信息后即激活第一定时器,以便于接收CSI报告。提高了接收CSI报告的概率,保证链路自适应的正常工作,提高了***性能和***通信效率。第二终端设备在第一PSSCH的结束符号后的第M个符号激活第一定时器的描述,可以参考上面第二终端设备在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第M个符号激活第一定时器的描述,在此不加赘述。
当第一指示信息承载在第一PSSCH上时,第二终端设备也可以在第一PSSCH的所在时隙后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器,可以理解为在第一PSSCH后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器,也可以理解为在第一PSSCH发送完后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器,还可以理解为在发送第一PSSCH最后一个符号后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器,还可以理解为在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器。第二终端设备在第一PSSCH的所在时隙后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器的描述,可以参考上面第二终端设备在第一指示信息的所在时隙后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器的描述,在此不加赘述。
当第一PSSCH包括CSI-RS时,第二终端设备也可以在CSI-RS的结束符号后的第M个符号激活第一定时器,可以理解为在CSI-RS发送完后的第M个符号激活第一定时器,也可以理解为在发送CSI-RS最后一个符号后的第M个符号激活第一定时器。当M等于1时,第二终端设备可以在CSI-RS的结束符号后的第1个符号激活第一定时器,由于CSI-RS可以用于生成CSI报告,并且CSI-RS的发送伴随着用于触发CSI上报的指示信息的发送,第二终端设备在发送用于触发CSI上报的指示信息后激活第一定时器,以便于接收CSI报告。提高了接收CSI报告的概率,保证链路自适应的正常工作,提高了***性能和***通信效率。第二终端设备在CSI-RS的结束符号后的第M个符号激活第一定时器的描述,可以参考上面第二终端设备在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第M个符号激活第一定时器的描述,在此不加赘述。
当第一PSSCH包括CSI-RS时,第二终端设备也可以在CSI-RS的所在时隙后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器,可以理解为在CSI-RS后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器,也可以理解为在CSI-RS发送完后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器,还可以理解为在发送CSI-RS最后一个符号后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器,还可以理解为在发送CSI-RS的结束符号后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器。第二终端设备在CSI-RS的所在时隙(即结束时隙)后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器的描述,可以参考上面第二终端设备在第一指示信息的所在时隙后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器的描述,在此不加赘述。
之后第二终端设备可以在第一定时器的激活时间内监听PSCCH或SCI,监听PSCCH或SCI的目的是为了接收来自第一终端设备的CSI报告。第二终端设备在第一定时器的激活时间内,也可以接收来自第一终端设备的其它信息,还可以接收来自其它终端设备的信息,在此不加限定。可见,第二终端设备在第一定时器的激活时间内监听PSCCH或SCI是为了不会错过第一终端设备返回的CSI报告,可以进行链路自适应,从而可以提高链路质量和传输可靠性。监听可以理解为接收,也可以理解为检测,也可以理解为盲检。监听SCI可以理解为监听第一级SCI,也可以理解为监听第一级SCI和第二级SCI,也可以理解为监听第一级SCI和接收相应的第二级SCI。
由于信道状态信息会随着时间的变化而变化,因此,触发CSI上报与接收到CSI报告之间的时间间隔不能太长,太长的话CSI报告会丧失时效性。CSI报告延时上限是保证CSI报告时效性的最大时限。由于超过这个时限之后,表明信息延时较大,CSI报告将丧失时效性,第一终端设备可能不会返回CSI。因此,为了减少第二终端设备的监听时间,以便降低第二终端设备的功耗,第一定时器的激活时间不能太长。可见,第一定时器的激活时间可以根据CSI报告 延时上限确定,可以理解为第一定时器的激活时间的确定需要考虑CSI报告延时上限。例如,第一定时器的激活时间可以小于或等于CSI报告延时上限。为了不会错过第一终端设备返回的CSI报告,第一定时器的激活时间与CSI报告延时上限之间的差值越小越好,但差值越小的话功耗也越大。此外,由于第一终端设备接收到触发CSI上报的第一指示信息之后,先需要生成CSI报告,而生成CSI报告需要一段时间,在这段时间内第二终端设备不会接收到来自第一终端设备的CSI报告。因此,第二终端设备为了不错过第一终端设备返回的CSI报告,第一定时器的激活时间也不能太短。可见,第一定时器的激活时间的确定也可以考虑CSI的计算时间,例如,第一定时器的激活时间可以大于或等于CSI的计算时间。因此,第一定时器的激活时间最好大于或等于CSI的计算时间,且小于或等于CSI报告延时上限。CSI报告延时上限可以是通过PC5RRC配置的。CSI的计算时间可以是第一终端设备上报的。CSI的计算时间可以是第一终端设备根据第一终端设备的能力确定的。例如,可以有多个CSI的计算时间,第一终端设备可以根据自身的能力信息从这多个CSI的计算时间中选择一个与之对应的CSI的计算时间。上述对CSI的计算时间的确定方式只是示例性的说明,并不构成限定,也可以通过其它方式进行确定,在此不加限定。
可以理解,上述对根据CSI报告延时上限确定第一定时器的激活时间的举例只是示例性说明,并不对其构成限定。
在另一种实现方式中,第二终端设备可以在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第N个符号,激活第一定时器,可以理解为在第一指示信息发送完后的第N个符号激活第一定时器,也可以理解为在发送第一指示信息最后一个符号后的第N个符号激活第一定时器。N为大于CSI的计算时间的整数。CSI的计算时间的单位可以为符号,也可以以绝对时间毫秒、秒等为单位,也可以通过其它衡量时间的方式确定,在此不加限定。可见,第二终端设备可以在第一指示信息的结束符号后经过CSI的计算时间后的第1个符号激活第一定时器,也可以在第一指示信息的结束符号后经过CSI的计算时间后的第2个符号激活第一定时器,还可以在第一指示信息的结束符号后经过CSI的计算时间后的第3个符号激活第一定时器。例如,CSI的计算时间为4个符号,在第一指示信息的结束符号后经过CSI的计算时间后的第2个符号激活第一定时器,可以理解为在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第6个符号激活第一定时器。由于第一终端设备在第一指示信息结束符号后的第CSI的计算时间个符号可能已经生成了CSI报告,第一终端设备在第一指示信息结束符号经过第CSI的计算时间后的第1个符号可以向第二终端设备返回CSI报告,因此,第二终端设备为了不错过第一终端设备返回的CSI报告,第二终端设备在第一指示信息的结束符号后经过CSI的计算时间后的1个符号激活第一定时器的效果最好。由于在接收到用于触发CSI上报的指示信息后,第一终端设备需要时间来生成CSI报告,CSI计算时间为接收到触发CSI上报的信令信息后用于生成CSI报告的最短时间,因为在这段时间内第二终端不会接收到CSI报告,为此处于激活状态是没有意义并且不利于节能的。请参阅图9,图9是本申请实施例公开的另一种第一定时器激活的示意图。如图9所示,T3为第二终端设备触发CSI上报的时间,T4为激活第一定时器的时间,T5为第一定时器失效的时间。可见,第一定时器是在触发CSI上报后的CSI的计算时间后激活的。
第二终端设备也可以在第一符号后的第L个时隙激活第一定时器。L为大于或等于1的整数。第一符号可以为发送第一指示信息最后一个符号后的第K个符号,可以理解为第一指示信息结束符号后的第K个符号。K为计算CSI所用符号数,即用于计算CSI的符号数。例如,假设L为1,在计算CSI所用符号为一个时隙包括的符号数时,在第一符号所在时隙后的第L个时隙激活第一定时器,可以理解为在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第2个时隙激活第一定时器。 由于第一终端设备在第一指示信息结束符号后的K个符号已经生成了CSI报告,第一终端设备可以在第一符号后的第1个时隙向第二终端设备返回CSI报告,因此,第二终端设备为了不错过第一终端设备返回的CSI报告,可以在第一符号后的第1个时隙激活第一定时器,可以减少第二终端设备的监听时间,从而可以降低第二终端设备的功耗。
当第一指示信息承载在第一PSSCH上时,第二终端设备也可以在第一PSSCH的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第一定时器,可以理解为在第一PSSCH发送完后的第N个符号激活第一定时器,也可以理解为在发送第一PSSCH最后一个符号后的第N个符号激活第一定时器。第二终端设备在第一PSSCH的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第一定时器的描述,可以参考上面第二终端设备在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第一定时器的描述,在此不加赘述。
当第一指示信息承载在第一PSSCH上时,第一符号可以为发送第一PSSCH最后一个符号后的第K个符号,即第一PSSCH结束符号后的第K个符号。详细描述可以参考第一符号为发送第一指示信息最后一个符号后的第K个符号对应的相关描述,在此不加赘述。
当第一PSSCH包括CSI-RS时,第二终端设备也可以在CSI-RS的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第一定时器,可以理解为在CSI-RS发送完后的第N个符号激活第一定时器,也可以理解为在发送CSI-RS最后一个符号后的第N个符号激活第一定时器。第二终端设备在CSI-RS的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第一定时器的描述,可以参考上面第二终端设备在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第一定时器的描述,在此不加赘述。
当第一PSSCH包括CSI-RS时,第一符号可以为发送CSI-RS最后一个符号后的第K个符号,即CSI-RS结束符号后的第K个符号。详细描述可以参考第一符号为发送第一指示信息最后一个符号后的第K个符号对应的相关描述,在此不加赘述。
由于第一终端设备接收到触发CSI上报的第一指示信息之后,先需要生成CSI报告,而生成CSI报告需要一段时间,在这段时间内第一终端设备不会发送CSI报告。相应地,第二终端设备也不会接收到CSI报告。此外,由于第一定时器可以是在第一指示信息、第一PSSCH或CSI-RS结束符号后的第N个符号激活的,而N为大于CSI的计算时间的整数,考虑了CSI的计算时间。第一定时器也可以是在第一符号后的第L个时隙激活的,第一符号考虑了CSI的计算时间。因此,第一定时器的激活时间可以根据CSI报告延时上限和CSI的计算时间确定,例如,第一定时器的激活时间可以小于或等于CSI报告延时上限与CSI的计算时间之间的差值,以便可以保证监听是在CSI报告延时上限内进行的,可以减少不必要的监听,从而可以降低第二终端设备的功耗。
可以理解,上述对根据CSI报告延时上限和CSI的计算时间确定第一定时器的激活时间的举例只是示例性说明,并不对其构成限定。
可选地,当第二终端设备在第一指示信息、第一PSSCH或CSI-RS的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第一定时器,或者在第一符号后的第L个时隙激活第一定时器时,从第二终端设备发送第一指示信息到激活第一定时器之间有一段时间。在这段时间内,如果第二终端设备处于DRX的激活期,第二终端设备也需要监听PSCCH或者SCI。因此,为了第二终端设备在这段时间内不进行监听以降低第二终端设备的功耗,第二终端设备可以在第一PSSCH、第二级SCI或CSI-RS的结束符号后的第一个符号激活第二定时器,或者可以在第一符号后的第L个时隙激活第二定时器,在第二定时器的激活时间内不监听PSCCH或者SCI。第二定时器的激活时间可以大于或等于CSI的计算时间。第二定时器失效的时间可以为激活第一定时器的时间,也可以早于激活第一定时器的时间。第二定时器超时时第二定时器失效。请参阅图10,图10是 本申请实施例公开的一种第一定时器和第二定时器的示意图。如图10所示,T6为激活第二定时器的时间,T7为激活第一定时器的时间以及第二定时器失效的时间,T8为第一定时器失效的时间。图10中第二定时器失效的时间为激活第一定时器的时间。
其中,上述第一定时器的激活时间可以是预配置的,也可以是网络设备配置的,还可以是通过其它方式确定的,在此不加限定。
704、第一终端设备激活第三定时器。
705、第一终端设备在第三定时器的激活时间内向第二终端设备发送CSI报告。
第一终端设备接收到来自第二终端设备的第一指示信息之后,可以激活第三定时器,在第三定时器的激活时间内向第二终端设备发送CSI报告。
相应地,第二终端设备接收来自第一终端设备的CSI报告。
第一终端设备在第三定时器的激活时间内向第二终端设备发送CSI报告,可以理解为第一终端设备在第三定时器的激活时间内监听PSCCH或SCI,以便第一终端设备可以通过感知或部分感知的方式确定传输资源,即第二PSSCH的传输资源,向第二终端设备发送CSI报告。当第三定时器的激活时间大于或等于感知窗口时,第一终端设备可以通过感知方式确定传输资源;当第三定时器的激活时间小于感知窗口时,第一终端设备可以通过部分感知方式确定传输资源。监听SCI可以理解为监听第一级SCI,也可以理解为监听第一级SCI和第二级SCI,也可以理解为监听第一级SCI和接收相应的第二级SCI。

当第一PSSCH包括CSI-RS时,第一终端设备可以先接收第一指示信息,之后才接收CSI-RS。第一终端设备也可以在接收完CSI-RS之后,才根据第一指示信息触发CSI上报。相应地,第一终端设备也可以在CSI-RS的结束符号后的第M个符号激活第三定时器,可以理解为在CSI-RS接收完后的第M个符号激活第三定时器,也可以理解为在接收CSI-RS最后一个符号后的第M个符号激活第三定时器。第一终端设备在CSI-RS的结束符号后的第M个符号激活第三定时器的描述,可以参考上面第二终端设备在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第M个符号激活第一定时器的描述,在此不加赘述。
第一终端设备也可以在CSI-RS的所在时隙后的第M个时隙激活第三定时器,可以理解为在CSI-RS后的第M个时隙激活第三定时器,也可以理解为在CSI-RS接收完后的第M个时隙激活第三定时器,还可以理解为在接收CSI-RS最后一个符号后的第M个时隙激活第三定时器,还可以理解为在接收CSI-RS的结束符号后的第M个时隙激活第三定时器。第一终端设备在CSI-RS的所在时隙后的第M个时隙激活第三定时器的描述,可以参考上面第二终端设备在第一指示信息的所在时隙后的第M个时隙激活第一定时器的描述,在此不加赘述。
其中,上述第三定时器的激活时间可以根据CSI报告延时上限确定。例如,第三定时器的激活时间可以小于或等于CSI报告延时上限。对第三定时器的激活时间的描述可以参考步骤703下面在一种实现方式中对第一定时器的激活时间的描述,在此不加赘述。可以理解,上述对根据CSI报告延时上限确定第三定时器的激活时间的举例只是示例性说明,并不对其构成限定。
在另一种实现方式中,由于第一终端设备接收到第一指示信息之后,先需要生成CSI报告,而生成CSI报告需要一段时间,在这段时间内第一终端设备不会发送CSI报告。因此,当第一终端设备接收到第一指示信息之后可以根据第一指示信息生成CSI报告时,第一终端设备可以在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第N个符号,激活第三定时器,可以理解为在第一指示信息接收完后的第N个符号激活第三定时器,也可以理解为在接收第一指示信息最后一个符号后的第N个符号激活第三定时器。第一终端设备在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第三定时器的描述,可以参考上面第二终端设备在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第一定时器的描述,在此不加赘述。
第一终端设备也可以在第一符号后的第L个时隙激活第三定时器。第一符号可以为发送第一指示信息最后一个符号后的第K个符号,即第一指示信息结束符号后的第K个符号。第一终端设备在第一符号后的第L个时隙激活第三定时器,可以参考上面第一终端设备在第一符号后的第L个时隙激活第一定时器的描述,在此不加赘述。
当第一指示信息承载在第一PSSCH上时,第一终端设备可以在接收完承载第一指示信息的第一PSSCH之后,才根据第一指示信息生成CSI报告。由于考虑到CSI报告生成所需的时间,即CSI的计算时间。第一终端设备也可以在第一PSSCH的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第三定时器,可以理解为在第一PSSCH接收完后的第N个符号激活第三定时器,也可以理解为在接收第一PSSCH最后一个符号后的第N个符号激活第三定时器。第一终端设备在第一PSSCH的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第三定时器的描述,可以参考上面第二终端设备在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第一定时器的描述,在此不加赘述。
当第一指示信息承载在第一PSSCH上时,第一符号可以为发送第一PSSCH最后一个符号 后的第K个符号,即第一PSSCH结束符号后的第K个符号。详细描述可以参考第一符号为发送第一指示信息最后一个符号后的第K个符号对应的相关描述,在此不加赘述。
当第一PSSCH包括CSI-RS时,第一终端设备先接收第一指示信息,之后才接收CSI-RS。第一终端设备可以在接收完CSI-RS之后,才根据第一指示信息生成CSI报告。由于考虑到CSI报告生成所需的时间,即CSI的计算时间。第一终端设备也可以在CSI-RS的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第三定时器,可以理解为在CSI-RS接收完后的第N个符号激活第三定时器,也可以理解为在接收CSI-RS最后一个符号后的第N个符号激活第三定时器。第一终端设备在CSI-RS的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第三定时器的描述,可以参考上面第二终端设备在第一指示信息的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第一定时器的描述,在此不加赘述。
当第一PSSCH包括CSI-RS时,第一符号可以为发送CSI-RS最后一个符号后的第K个符号,即CSI-RS结束符号后的第K个符号。详细描述可以参考第一符号为发送第一指示信息最后一个符号后的第K个符号对应的相关描述,在此不加赘述。
其中,在另一种实现方式中,第三定时器的激活时间可以根据CSI报告延时上限和CSI的计算时间确定。例如,第三定时器的激活时间可以小于或等于CSI报告延时上限与CSI的计算时间的差值。对第三定时器的激活时间的描述可以参考步骤703下面在另一种实现方式下面对第一定时器的激活时间的描述,在此不加赘述。可以理解,上述对根据CSI报告延时上限和CSI的计算时间确定第三定时器的激活时间的举例只是示例性说明,并不对其构成限定。
可选地,当第一终端设备在第一指示信息、第一PSSCH或CSI-RS的结束符号后的第N个符号激活第三定时器,或者在第一符号后的第L个时隙激活第三定时器时,第一终端设备从接收到第一指示信息到激活第三定时器之间有一段时间。在这段时间内,如果第一终端设备处于DRX的激活期,第一终端设备也需要监听PSCCH或者SCI。因此,第一终端设备在这段时间内可以不监听控制信令以降低第一终端设备的功耗,第一终端设备可以在第一PSSCH、第二级SCI或CSI-RS的结束符号后的第一个符号激活第四定时器,或者在第一符号后的第L个时隙激活第四定时器,在第四定时器的激活时间内不监听PSCCH或者SCI。第四定时器的激活时间可以大于或等于CSI的计算时间。第四定时器失效的时间可以为激活第三定时器的时间,也可以早于激活第三定时器的时间。第四定时器超时时第四定时器失效。请参阅图11,图11是本申请实施例公开的一种第三定时器和第四定时器的示意图。如图11所示,T9为激活第四定时器的时间,T10为激活第三定时器的时间以及第四定时器失效的时间,T11为第三定时器失效的时间。图11中第四定时器失效的时间为激活第三定时器的时间。
当CSI发送完成时,第一终端设备确定第三定时器失效。可以理解为当CSI发送完成时,不论当前时间与激活第三定时器的时间之间的时间间隔是否超过第三定时器的激活时间,第三定时器均失效。因此,当第三定时器失效的时间与激活第三定时器的时间之间的时间间隔小于第三定时器的激活时间时,第一终端设备只需要监听到第三定时器失效就可以了,不需要一直监听到第三定时器超时,因此,第一终端设备可以提前结束监听,可以减少第一终端设备监听的时间,从而可以降低第一终端设备的功耗。
其中,上述第三定时器的激活时间可以是预配置的,也可以是网络设备配置的,还可以是通过其它方式确定的,在此不加限定。
第一终端设备接收到第一指示信息之后,需要生成CSI报告。生成CSI报告的时候,可以使用以前接收或存储的CSI-RS。可选地,当接收第一指示信息的同时接收了CSI-RS时,第一终端设备也可以根据本次接收的CSI-RS生成CSI报告。
当第二终端设备接收到来自第一终端设备的CSI报告时,第二终端设备确定第一定时器失 效。可以理解为当第二终端设备接收到来自第一终端设备的CSI报告时,不论当前时间与激活第一定时器的时间之间的时间间隔是否超过第一定时器的激活时间,第一定时器均失效。因此,当第一定时器的失效时间与激活第一定时器的时间之间的时间间隔小于第一定时器的激活时间时,第二终端设备只需要监听到第一定时器失效就可以了,不需要一直监听到第一定时器超时,因此,第二终端设备可以提前结束监听,可以减少第二终端设备监听的时间,从而可以降低第二终端设备的功耗。当第一定时器超时时,确定第一定时器失效,可以理解为当第一定时器超时时,不论第二终端设备是否接收到来自第一终端设备的CSI报告,第一定时器均失效。
可选地,第二终端设备可以向第一终端设备发送CSI报告延时上限。相应地,第一终端设备可以接收来自第二终端设备的CSI报告延时上限。CSI报告延时上限可以大于第一终端设备DRX的休眠时间与CSI的计算时间之和。其中,详细描述可以参考图15对应的描述。
其中,步骤701-步骤705中相关的内容可以相互参考,并不局限于对应的步骤。
基于上述网络架构,请参阅图12,图12是本申请实施例公开的另一种通信方法的流程示意图。如图12所示,该通信方法可以包括以下步骤。其中,下面步骤中由终端设备执行的功能,也可以由终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片)来执行。
1201、第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送第二指示信息。
相应地,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第二指示信息。
在第二终端设备有业务需求的情况下,第二终端设备可以向第一终端设备发送第二指示信息。第二指示信息用于触发CSI的上报,可以理解第二指示信息具有触发第一终端设备向第二终端设备上报CSI报告的功能。
在一种实现方式中,第二指示信息可以承载在第四PSSCH上,可以理解第二指示信息可以通过物理侧行共享信道,进行传输。在一种情况下,第二指示信息可以包括第二级SCI,第二级SCI可以包括CSI请求字段,CSI请求字段用于触发CSI的上报。CSI请求字段的值可以为1,也可以为0,在此不加限定。在另一种情况下,第四PSSCH可以包括第二级SCI,第二级SCI可以包括CSI请求字段,第二指示信息可以为CSI请求字段。在又一种情况下,第二指示信息可以为第四PSSCH中的一个指示符。在又一种情况下,第二指示信息可以为第四PSSCH中的参考信号,该参考信号可以为CSI-RS等各种参考信号。在又一种情况下,第二指示信息可以为第四PSSCH中的一个比特。例如,当这个比特为0或1时,用于触发CSI的上报。应理解,上述对第二指示信息的限定只是示例性的说明,并不对第二指示信息构成限定,第二指示信息可以为具有触发CSI上报功能的任何形式的信息、字段、比特、信令、消息等。
可选地,当第二指示信息承载在第四PSSCH上时,第四PSSCH还可以包括CSI-RS。
在另一种实现方式中,第二指示信息也可以承载在PSCCH上。
可选地,当第二指示信息承载在PSCCH上时,第二终端设备还可以向第一终端设备发送承载有CSI-RS的PSSCH。
1202、当第一终端设备处于DRX时,第一终端设备在CSI报告延时上限内向第二终端设备发送第三PSSCH。
第一终端设备接收到来自第二终端设备的第二指示信息之后,当第一终端设备处于DRX时,为了保证CSI报告的时效性,第一终端设备可以在CSI报告延时上限内向第二终端设备发送第三PSSCH。第三PSSCH可以包括CSI报告。第一终端设备接收到第二指示信息之后,可以先根据第二指示信息生成CSI报告,之后可以通过第三PSSCH向第二终端设备发送CSI报 告。
第一终端设备接收到来自第二终端设备的第二指示信息之后,可以先判断CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间是否存在交集。当判断出CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集时,第一终端设备可以在CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间的交集内确定第三PSSCH,即第三PSSCH的时域资源属于CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间的交集,第一终端设备可以通过确定的第三PSSCH向第二终端设备发送CSI报告。在第一终端设备和第二终端的DRX周期相同时,第一终端设备可以在CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间的交集中向第二终端设备发送CSI报告,由于第二终端设备也处于DRX的激活期,因此,第二终端设备可以接收到来自第一终端设备的CSI报告。可以保证CSI报告传输的可靠性,第二终端设备可以进行链路自适应,提高了第二终端设备***传输的可靠性。进一步地,第一终端设备可以在CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间的交集内通过感知或部分感知的方式确定第三PSSCH的资源,即第三PSSCH的时域资源属于CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间的交集,第一终端设备可以通过确定的第三PSSCH向第二终端设备发送CSI报告。当判断出CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间不存在交集时,由于第一终端设备在触发CSI上报的时间与发送CSI报告的时间之间的时间间隔内,第一终端设备一直处于DRX的休眠期,以致第一终端设备无法通过感知或部分感知的方式确定第三PSSCH的传输资源。或者第一终端设备通过历史感知结果确定第三PSSCH的传输资源会导致该传输资源的冲突概率增加,增加了对其他终端设备的干扰。因此,为了能够保证CSI报告能够正常发送,第一终端设备可以通过随机选择的方式确定第三PSSCH的资源。
当CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集,且第二比例大于(或者大于或等于)第七阈值时,第三PSSCH的资源可以为通过感知或部分感知确定的资源。当CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集,且第二比例小于或等于第七阈值时,第三PSSCH的资源可以为通过随机选择确定的资源。例如,当判断出CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集时,可以继续判断第二比例是否大于(或者大于或等于)第七阈值,当判断出第二比例大于(或者大于或等于)第七阈值时,第三PSSCH的资源为通过感知或部分感知确定的资源。当判断出第二比例小于或等于(或者小于)第七阈值时,第三PSSCH的资源为通过随机选择确定的资源。第二比例为DRX的激活时间和感知窗口的重叠时间与感知窗口的比例。第二比例为DRX的激活时间和感知窗口的重叠时间与感知窗口的比例。在一种实现方式中,当CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集,且第二比例小于或等于第七阈值时,第三PSSCH的资源可以为通过模式1的资源选择确定的资源。即网络覆盖范围内的终端设备可以通过向网络设备请求资源来获取第三PSSCH的资源。
详细描述可以参考图23对应的相关描述,在此不再详细赘述。其中,第七阈值与第五阈值可以相同,也可以不同,在此不加限定。第七阈值的相关描述可以参考图23对应的第五阈值的描述,在此不再详细赘述。
随机选择的资源池与感知或部分感知的资源池可以为同一个资源池,也可以为不同的资源池。例如,第一终端设备被配置了两个资源池,一个资源池中的资源用于终端设备通过感知或部分感知的方式使用。另一个资源池中的资源用于终端设备通过随机选择的方式使用。再例如,第一终端设备被配置了一个资源池,该资源池支持感知、部分感知或随机选择的资源选择方式。即不论是感知、部分感知或随机选择的资源,均可以从这个资源池中选择的。
可以理解,上述对随机选择的资源池与感知或部分感知的资源池的说明是示例性的,并不构成限定。请查阅图13,图13是本申请实施例公开的一种CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活 时间之间存在交集的示意图。图13示意出了三种CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集的情况。一种为CSI报告延时上限与当前DRX周期的激活期以及下一个DRX的周期的激活期均存在交集,另一种为CSI报告延时上限可以与下一个DRX的周期的激活期存在交集,又一种为CSI报告延时上限可以与当前DRX周期的激活期存在交集。可以理解,图13只是对CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集的示例性说明,并不构成限定,还可以为其它方式,在此不加限定。
请查阅图14,图14是本申请实施例公开的一种CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间不存在交集的示意图。图14示意出了四种CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间存在交集的情况。可以理解,图14只是对CSI报告延时上限与DRX的激活时间之间不存在交集的示例性说明,并不构成限定,还可以为其它方式,在此不加限定。
第一终端设备接收到第二指示信息之后,需要生成CSI报告。生成CSI报告的时候,可以使用以前接收或存储的CSI-RS,也可以使用其他信息。可选地,当第一终端设备在接收第二指示信息的同时接收了CSI-RS时,第一终端设备也可以根据本次接收的CSI-RS生成CSI报告。
基于上述网络架构,请参阅图15,图15是本申请实施例公开的又一种通信方法的流程示意图。如图15所示,该通信方法可以包括以下步骤。其中,下面步骤中由终端设备执行的功能,也可以由终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片)来执行。
1501、第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送CSI报告延时上限。
相应地,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的CSI报告延时上限。
请参阅图16,图16是本申请实施例公开的一种CSI报告延时上限、第一终端设备DRX的休眠时间和CSI的计算时间的示意图。如图16所示,当触发第一终端设备上报CSI的时间与第一终端设备进入休眠期的时间之间的时间间隔等于CSI的计算时间时,第一终端设备生成CSI报告时,即第一终端设备准备好CSI报告时,第一终端设备刚好进入DRX的休眠期。如果第一终端设备通过感知或部分感知的方式确定传输资源,则第一终端设备在休眠期无法确定传输资源,以致第一终端设备在休眠期无法向第二终端设备发送CSI报告。当CSI报告延时上限小于第一终端设备DRX的休眠时间与CSI的计算时间时,在CSI报告时延上限到达时,第一终端设备还处于休眠期,以致第一终端设备针对这次触发无法返回CSI报告。当CSI报告延时上限等于第一终端设备DRX的休眠时间与CSI的计算时间时,在CSI报告时延上限到达时,第一终端设备正由休眠期切换到激活期,第一终端设备可能无法发送CSI报告,以致第一终端设备针对这次触发无法返回CSI报告。因此,为了避免上述问题的发生,当第一终端设备处于DRX时,第二终端设备可以为第一终端设备配置CSI报告延时上限,且CSI报告延时上限可以大于第一终端设备DRX的休眠时间与CSI的计算时间之和。
基于上述网络架构,请参阅图17,图17是本申请实施例公开的又一种通信方法的流程示意图。如图17所示,该通信方法可以包括以下步骤。其中,下面步骤中由终端设备执行的功能,也可以由终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片)来执行。
1701、第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送第一时长。
相应地,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第一时长。
第一时长为非激活(inactivity)定时器的时长。第一时长可以大于或等于CSI报告延时上限或CSI的计算时间。终端设备接收到一个SL传输之后,非激活定时器可以使终端设备在这个非激活定时器的激活时间内持续监听。
请参阅图18,图18是本申请实施例公开的一种CSI报告延时上限和CSI的计算时间的示意图。图18示意出了四种终端设备处于DRX时,由于终端设备无法通过感知或部分感知的方式确定传输资源,以致无法上报CSI报告的情况。图18只是示例性的说明,并不构成限定,也可以为其它情况,在此不加限定。因此,为了避免上述情况的发生,当第一终端设备处于DRX时,第二终端设备可以为第一终端设备配置或重新配置非激活定时器的时长,且非激活定时器的时长可以大于或等于CSI的计算时间,以便可以保证第一终端设备可以通过感知或部分感知的方式确定传输资源,或者可以获知更多的感知结果提高传输资源的可靠性,从而可以通过确定的传输资源上报CSI报告。当定时器的时长的单位为符号、时隙等时,非激活定时器的时长等于CSI的计算时间也可以保证第一终端设备能够上报CSI报告。
现有技术中,终端设备都是在CSI报告延时上限内上报CSI报告的。因此,为了保证终端设备在CSI报告延时上限内都可以通过感知或部分感知的方式确定传输资源,以便通过确定的可靠的传输资源上报CSI报告,当第一终端设备处于DRX时,第二终端设备可以为第一终端设备配置或重新配置非激活定时器的时长,且非激活定时器的时长可以大于或等于CSI报告延时上限。
第二终端设备可以先判断CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的周期的激活时间之间的重叠时间是否小于CSI的计算时间,当判断出CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的周期的激活时间之间的重叠时间小于(或者小于或等于)CSI的计算时间时,表明第一终端设备可能无法通过感知或部分感知的方式确定的传输资源上报CSI报告,或者第一终端设备只能获知感知窗口内的少部分感知结果无法保证根据该感知结果确定的传输资源的可靠性。因此,第二终端设备可以为第一终端设备配置或重新配置非激活定时器的时长。当判断出CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的周期的激活时间之间的重叠时间大于或等于(或者大于)CSI的计算时间时,表明第一终端设备可以通过感知或部分感知的方式确定的传输资源上报CSI报告,第二终端设备可以不为第一终端设备配置或重新配置非激活定时器的时长,从而可以减少不必要的信息的传输和处理,从而可以节约传输资源和降低终端设备的功耗。
在一种实现方式中,第二终端设备中可能存在多个不同的非激活定时器的时长,在有需要时,第二终端设备可以从这多个时长中选取一个满足要求的时长配置或重新配置给第一终端设备。
在一种实现方式中,第二终端设备可以为第一终端设备配置或重新配置下一次的非激活定时器的时长。因为第一终端设备发送的数据的优先级的值或类型在短时间可能会有较高的相似度,如果当前调整非激活定时器的时长来不及,则可以调整下一次开启的非激活定时器的时长。其中,优先级的值越大,对应的优先级的级别可以越高,也可以越低,在此不加限定。
在一种实现方式中,第一终端设备中的非激活定时器的时长不是第二终端设备配置的,而是第一终端设备中自适应的确定的。第一终端设备可能被配置或预配置或预定义多个不同的非激活定时器的时长,第一终端设备可以根据需要从这多个时长中选取一个满足要求的时长进行使用。
基于上述网络架构,请参阅图19,图19是本申请实施例公开的又一种通信方法的流程示意图。如图19所示,该通信方法可以包括以下步骤。其中,下面步骤中由终端设备执行的功能,也可以由终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片)来执行。
1901、第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送第三指示信息。
相应地,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第三指示信息。
在第二终端设备有业务需求的情况下,第二终端设备可以向第一终端设备发送第三指示信息。第三指示信息用于触发CSI的上报,可以理解第三指示信息具有触发第一终端设备向第二终端设备上报CSI报告的功能。
在一种实现方式中,第三指示信息可以承载在第五PSSCH上,可以理解第三指示信息可以通过物理侧行共享信道进行传输。在一种情况下,第三指示信息可以包括第二级SCI,第二级SCI可以包括CSI请求字段,CSI请求字段用于触发CSI的上报。CSI请求字段的值可以为1,也可以为0,在此不加限定。在另一种情况下,第五PSSCH可以包括第二级SCI,第二级SCI可以包括CSI请求字段,第三指示信息可以为CSI请求字段。在又一种情况下,第三指示信息可以为第五PSSCH中的一个指示符。在又一种情况下,第三指示信息可以为第五PSSCH中的参考信号,该参考信号可以为CSI-RS等各种参考信号。在又一种情况下,第三指示信息可以为第五PSSCH中的一个比特。例如,当这个比特为0或1时,用于触发CSI的上报。应理解,上述对第三指示信息的限定只是示例性的说明,并不对第三指示信息构成限定,第三指示信息可以为具有触发CSI上报功能的任何形式的信息、字段、比特、信令、消息等。
可选地,当第三指示信息承载在第五PSSCH上时,第五PSSCH还可以包括CSI-RS。
在另一种实现方式中,第三指示信息也可以承载在PSCCH上。
可选地,当第三指示信息承载在PSCCH上时,第二终端设备还可以向第一终端设备发送承载有CSI-RS的PSSCH。
1902、当CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠长度大于或等于第一时间时,第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送CSI报告。
第一终端设备接收到来自第二终端设备的第三指示信息之后,可以先判断CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠长度是否大于或等于(或者大于)第一时间。当判断出CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠长度大于或等于(或者大于)第一时间时,表明第一终端设备可以通过感知或部分感知的方式确定的传输资源上报CSI报告,第一终端设备可以通过感知或部分感知的方式确定传输资源,通过确定的传输资源向第二终端设备发送CSI报告。
当判断出CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠长度小于(或者小于或等于)第一时间时,表明第一终端设备无法通过感知或部分感知的方式确定的传输资源上报CSI报告,第一终端设备可以不上报CSI报告。第一终端设备也可以切换DRX的周期,使切换后的第一终端设备DRX的激活时间与CSI报告延时上限之间的重叠长度大于或等于(或者大于)第一时间,之后第一终端设备可以通过感知或部分感知的方式确定传输资源,以及通过确定的传输资源向第二终端设备发送CSI报告。
第一时间可以为CSI的计算时间,也可以为第一阈值,还可以为CSI报告延时上限的第一比例。第一阈值和第一比例可以是预先配置的,也可以是第二终端设备配置的,还可以是网络设备配置的,还可以是通过PC5RRC配置的,还可以是通过其他方式配置的,在此不加限定。
可选地,第二终端设备可以向第一终端设备发送第三指示信息和第三指示信息的优先级的值。相应地,第一终端设备可以接收来自第二终端设备的第三指示信息和第三指示信息的优先级的值。当判断出CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠长度小于第一时间时,第一终端设备可以先判断第三指示信息的优先级的值是否小于(或者小于或等于)第二阈值时。当判断出第三指示信息的优先级的值小于(或者小于或等于)第二阈值 时,表明该业务为重要业务,可以保证该业务的正常传输,可以切换第一终端设备DRX的周期。当判断出第三指示信息的优先级的值大于或等于(或者大于)第二阈值时,表明该业务不重要,可以不切换第一终端设备DRX的周期。其中,上述优先级的值越小对应的优先级的级别越高。
上述方法也可以应用于优先级的值越小对应的优先级的级别越低的情况。相应地,第一终端设备可以先判断第三指示信息的优先级的值是否大于(或者大于或等于)第二阈值时。当判断出第三指示信息的优先级的值大于(或者大于或等于)第二阈值时,表明该业务为重要业务,可以保证该业务的正常传输,可以切换第一终端设备DRX的周期。当判断出第三指示信息的优先级的值小于或等于(或者小于)第二阈值时,表明该业务不重要,可以不切换第一终端设备DRX的周期。其中,第二阈值可以是网络设备配置的,也可以是其他方式配置,如预配置、默认配置等,也可以是预定义的。在一种情况下,当第二阈值没有被配置时,第一终端设备可以默认不切换第一终端设备DRX的周期。
第一终端设备接收到第三指示信息之后,需要生成CSI报告。生成CSI报告的时候,可以使用以前接收或存储的CSI-RS,也可以使用其他信息。可选地,当接收第三指示信息的同时接收了CSI-RS时,第一终端设备也可以使用本次接收的CSI-RS生成CSI报告。
基于上述网络架构,请参阅图20,图20是本申请实施例公开的又一种通信方法的流程示意图。如图20所示,该通信方法可以包括以下步骤。其中,下面步骤中由终端设备执行的功能,也可以由终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片)来执行。
2001、第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送第四指示信息。
相应地,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第四指示信息。
在第二终端设备有业务需求的情况下,第二终端设备可以向第一终端设备发送第四指示信息。第四指示信息用于触发CSI的上报,可以理解第四指示信息具有触发第一终端设备向第二终端设备上报CSI报告的功能。
在一种实现方式中,第四指示信息可以承载在第六PSSCH上,可以理解第四指示信息可以通过物理侧行共享信道进行传输。在一种情况下,第四指示信息可以包括第二级SCI,第二级SCI可以包括CSI请求字段,CSI请求字段用于触发CSI的上报。CSI请求字段的值可以为1,也可以为0,在此不加限定。在另一种情况下,第六PSSCH可以包括第二级SCI,第二级SCI可以包括CSI请求字段,第四指示信息可以为CSI请求字段。在又一种情况下,第四指示信息可以为第六PSSCH中的一个指示符。在又一种情况下,第四指示信息可以为第六PSSCH中的参考信号,该参考信号可以为CSI-RS等各种参考信号。在又一种情况下,第四指示信息可以为第六PSSCH中的一个比特。例如,当这个比特为0或1时,用于触发CSI的上报。应理解,上述对第四指示信息的限定只是示例性的说明,并不对第四指示信息构成限定,第四指示信息可以为具有触发CSI上报功能的任何形式的信息、字段、比特、信令、消息等。

第一终端设备接收到来自第二终端设备的第四指示信息之后,可以先判断CSI报告延时上 限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠长度是否小于(或者小于或等于)第一时间。当判断出CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠长度小于(或者小于或等于)第一时间时,表明第一终端设备无法通过感知或部分感知的方式确定的传输资源上报CSI报告,第一终端设备可以切换第一终端设备DRX的周期,使切换后的第一终端设备DRX的激活时间与CSI报告延时上限之间的重叠长度大于或等于(或者大于)第一时间。之后第一终端设备可以通过感知或部分感知的方式确定传输资源,以及通过确定的传输资源向第二终端设备发送CSI报告。
第一时间可以为CSI的计算时间,也可以为第一阈值,还可以为CSI报告延时上限的第一比例。第一阈值和第一比例可以是预先配置的,也可以是第二终端设备配置的,还可以是网络设备配置的,还可以是通过PC5RRC配置的,还可以是通过其他方式配置的,在此不加限定。
可选地,第二终端设备可以向第一终端设备发送第四指示信息和第四指示信息的优先级的值。相应地,第一终端设备可以接收来自第二终端设备的第四指示信息和第四指示信息的优先级的值。当判断出CSI报告延时上限与第一终端设备DRX的激活时间之间的重叠长度小于第一时间时,第一终端设备可以先判断第四指示信息的优先级的值是否小于或等于(或者小于)第三阈值时。当判断出第四指示信息的优先级的值小于或等于(或者小于)第三阈值时,表明该业务为重要业务,为了保证该业务的正常传输,可以切换第一终端设备DRX的周期。当判断出第四指示信息的优先级的值大于(或者大于或等于)第三阈值时,表明该业务不重要,第一终端设备可以不切换第一终端设备DRX的周期。其中,上述优先级的值越小对应的优先级的级别越高。其中,第三阈值可以是网络设备配置的,或者是其他方式配置,预配置,或预定义的。当第三阈值没有被配置时,第一终端设备默认不切换第一终端设备DRX的周期。
上述方法也可以应用于优先级的值越小对应的优先级的级别越低的情况。相应地,第一终端设备可以先判断第四指示信息的优先级的值是否大于(或者大于或等于)第三阈值时。当判断出第四指示信息的优先级的值大于(或者大于或等于)第三阈值时,表明该业务为重要业务,可以保证该业务的正常传输,可以切换第一终端设备DRX的周期。当判断出第四指示信息的优先级的值小于或等于(或者小于)第三阈值时,表明该业务不重要,可以不切换第一终端设备DRX的周期。其中,第三阈值可以是网络设备配置的,也可以是其他方式配置,如预配置、默认配置等,也可以是预定义的。在一种情况下,当第三阈值没有被配置时,第一终端设备可以默认不切换第一终端设备DRX的周期。
第一终端设备接收到第三指示信息之后,需要生成CSI报告。生成CSI报告的时候,可以使用以前接收或存储的CSI-RS,也可以使用其他信息。可选地,当接收第三指示信息的同时接收了CSI-RS时,第一终端设备也可以使用本次接收的CSI-RS生成CSI报告。
基于上述网络架构,请参阅图21,图21是本申请实施例公开的又一种通信方法的流程示意图。如图21所示,该通信方法可以包括以下步骤。其中,下面步骤中由终端设备执行的功能,也可以由终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片)来执行。
2101、第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送第一数据包和第一数据包的优先级的值。
相应地,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第一数据包和第一数据包的优先级的值。
2102、当第一数据包的优先级的值小于第四阈值时,第一终端设备去使能DRX。
第一终端设备接收到来自第二终端设备的第一数据包和第一数据包的优先级的值之后, 可以先判断第一数据包的优先级的值是否小于(或者小于或等于)第四阈值。当判断出第一数据包的优先级的值小于(或者小于或等于)第四阈值时,表明第一数据包对应的业务为重要业务,当第一终端设备处于DRX时,为了保证该业务的数据的正常传输,第一终端设备可以去使能DRX。当判断出第一数据包的优先级的值大于或等于(或者大于)第六阈值时,表明第一数据包对应的业务不是重要业务,当第一终端设备未处于DRX时,为了降低第一终端设备的功耗,第一终端设备可以使能DRX。第四阈值与第六阈值可以相同,也可以不同。当第四阈值与第六阈值不同时,第六阈值对应的优先级的值要大于第四阈值对应的优先级的值。
其中,上述优先级的值越小对应的优先级的级别越高。
例如,当数据包的优先级的值大于或等于1且小于或等于4时,表明对应的业务重要,当第一终端设备处于DRX时,第一终端设备可以去使能DRX。当数据包的优先级的值大于或等于5小于或等于8时,表明对应的业务不重要,当第一终端设备未处于DRX时,第一终端设备可以使能DRX。
再例如,可以为每个资源池配置或预配置一个阈值,如4,当数据包的优先级的值小于或等于(或者小于)4时,表明对应的业务重要,当第一终端设备处于DRX时,第一终端设备可以去使能DRX。当数据包的优先级的值大于(或者大于或等于)4时,表明对应的业务不重要,当第一终端设备未处于DRX时,第一终端设备可以使能DRX。其中,当这个阈值没有被配置时,第一终端设备可以默认使能DRX。
上面对优先级的举例只是示例性的说明,并不对优先级构成限定。
上述方法也可以应用于优先级的值越小对应的优先级的级别越低的情况。相应地,第一终端设备接收到来自第二终端设备的第一数据包和第一数据包的优先级的值之后,可以先判断第一数据包的优先级的值是否大于(或者大于或等于)第四阈值。当判断出第一数据包的优先级的值大于(或者大于或等于)第四阈值时,表明第一数据包对应的业务为重要业务,当第一终端设备处于DRX时,为了保证该业务的数据的正常传输,第一终端设备可以去使能DRX。这样终端设备可以避免由于处于DRX休眠而没有接收重要数据。当判断出第一数据包的优先级的值小于或等于(或者小于)第六阈值时,表明第一数据包对应的业务不是重要业务,当第一终端设备未处于DRX时,为了降低第一终端设备的功耗,第一终端设备可以使能DRX。第四阈值与第六阈值可以相同,也可以不同。当第四阈值与第六阈值不同时,第六阈值对应的优先级的值要低于第四阈值对应的优先级的值。
其中,第四阈值和/或第六阈值,可以是网络设备配置的,也可以是其他方式配置,如预配置、默认配置等,也可以是预定义的。在一种情况下,当第四阈值和/或第六阈值没有被配置时,第一终端设备可以默认使能DRX。
基于上述网络架构,请参阅图22,图22是本申请实施例公开的又一种通信方法的流程示意图。如图22所示,该通信方法可以包括以下步骤。其中,下面步骤中由终端设备执行的功能,也可以由终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片)来执行。
2201、第二终端设备向第一终端设备发送第二数据包和第二数据包的优先级的值。
相应地,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第二数据包和第二数据包的优先级的值。
2202、第一终端设备根据第二数据包的优先级的值调整第一终端设备DRX的周期。
第一终端设备接收到来自第二终端设备的第一数据包和第一数据包的优先级的值之后,可以根据第二数据包的优先级的值调整第一终端设备DRX的周期。例如,当第二数据包的优先级的值较低时,表明第二数据包对应的业务为重要业务,为了保证重要业务的正常传输, 可以增加第一终端设备DRX的周期;当第二数据包的优先级的值较高时,表明第二数据包对应的业务不是重要业务,为了降低第一终端设备的功耗,可以减少第一终端设备DRX的周期。这里减少第一终端设备DRX的周期可以理解为,减少第一终端设备DRX的周期长度,或者减少第一终端设备DRX的周期内激活时间所占用的比例。
例如,可以为每个资源池的配置或预配置一个阈值。当数据包的优先级的值小于或等于(或者小于)这个阈值时,表明数据包对应的业务为重要业务,第一终端设备可以调整DRX周期为长周期;当数据包的优先级的值大于(或者大于或等于)这个阈值时,表明数据包对应的业务不重要,第一终端设备可以调整DRX周期为短周期。这里,调整DRX周期可以理解为,调整DRX周期的长度或者调整DRX周期内激活时间所占用的比例。例如,调整DRX周期为短周期,可以理解为调整DRX周期的长度为短周期长度,或者调整DRX周期内激活时间所占用的比例为较小比例。
再例如,可以每个资源池配置或预配置一个表格。表格中给出了不同优先级的值的区间与不同DRX周期的值之间的对应关系。例如,该对应关系可以如表1所示:
表1优先级的值的区间与DRX周期的值之间的对应关系
优先级的值的区间 DRX周期的值
1-3 A
4-6 B
7-8 C
其中,A的长度大于B的长度,B的长度大于C的长度。
第一终端设备根据第二数据包的优先级的值调整第一终端设备DRX的周期,可以理解为,第一终端设备根据第二数据包的优先级的值调整下一个DRX周期。因为第一终端设备的DRX周期是重复的,根据接收的数据包和数据包的优先级的值调整当前的DRX周期,可能会过于灵活导致终端设备的处理时间紧张。由于短时间内的数据调度具有相似性,则可以调整下一个DRX周期。
上面对优先级的值的举例只是示例性的说明,并不对优先级构成限定。
可以理解,上述是针对优先级的值越小对应的优先级的级别越高的情况下进行说明的。
针对优先级的值越小对应的优先级的级别越低的情况也适用。例如,在第二数据包的优先级的值较高时,表明第二数据包对应的业务为重要业务,为了保证重要业务的正常传输,可以增加第一终端设备DRX的周期;在第二数据包的优先级的值较低时,表明第二数据包对应的业务不是重要业务,为了降低第一终端设备的功耗,可以减少第一终端设备DRX的周期。
基于上述网络架构,请参阅图23,图23是本申请实施例公开的又一种通信方法的流程示意图。如图23所示,该通信方法可以包括以下步骤。其中,下面步骤中由终端设备执行的功能,也可以由终端设备中的模块(例如,芯片)来执行。
2301、当第一终端设备处于DRX时,第一终端设备根据第一比例确定资源选择方式。
目前,在SL中终端设备在模式2的资源选择过程中一般通过感知方式确定传输资源。而在SL中引入DRX之后,由于DRX的周期包括激活期和休眠期,终端设备在DRX的休眠期无法接收信息,因此,感知窗口和DRX的激活期可能没有交集,也可能有部分交集,还可能完全有交集。因此,当感知窗口和DRX的激活期没有交集或者有部分交集时终端设备无法获得或 者只能获得部分感知结果。例如,感知窗口和DRX的激活期没有交集,则终端设备在感知窗口内处于休眠期,在感知窗口内没有接收,进而无法获取感知结果。因此,当终端设备处于DRX时,终端设备并不一定能够使用感知方式确定传输资源,或者无法保证使用感知方式确定的传输资源是可用的或者可信任的。这里,获取感知结果可以理解为接收SCI或PSCCH后,获取了SCI或PSCCH中的资源占用信息,并且根据RSRP测量值和阈值进行比较确定的SCI或PSCCH中指示的资源是否可用的信息。
例如,请参阅图38,图38是本申请实施例公开的一种感知窗口处于DRX的休眠期的示意图。如图38所示,当感知窗口全部处于DRX的休眠期时,由于终端设备在休眠期无法接收信息,因此,终端设备无法通过感知方式确定传输资源。
再例如,请参阅图39,图39是本申请实施例公开的一种感知窗口处于DRX的激活期的示意图。如图39所示,当感知窗口全部处于DRX的激活期时,由于终端设备在激活期可以接收信息,因此,终端设备可以通过感知方式确定传输资源。
再例如,请参阅图40,图40是本申请实施例公开的一种感知窗口与DRX的激活期有重叠的示意图。如图40所示,当感知窗口的前半部分处于DRX的激活期内时,终端设备可以接收进而获取感知结果。当感知窗口的后半部分处于DRX的休眠期时,终端设备无法接收,进而无法获取感知结果。当终端设备后续要根据感知结果确定传输资源时,终端设备只能使用在感知窗口的前半部分感知的结果,由于缺失了后半部分的感知结果,因此,发生资源冲突的概率较大,对其他终端设备产生干扰的概率较大。也就是说进行DRX的终端设备相较于没有进行DRX的终端设备会产生更多的干扰。
再例如,请参阅图41,图41是本申请实施例公开的另一种感知窗口与DRX的激活期有重叠的示意图。如图41所示,当感知窗口的前半部分处于DRX的休眠期时,终端设备无法接收,进而无法获取感知结果。当感知窗口的后半部分处于DRX的激活期内时,终端设备可以接收,进而获取感知结果。当终端设备后续要根据感知结果确定传输资源时,终端设备只能使用在感知窗口的后半部分感知的结果,由于这个感知结果可能较少,因此,发生资源冲突的概率较大,对其他终端设备产生干扰的概率较大。
可以理解,图38-图41中的感知窗口可以是固定长度的一段连续时间。感知窗口也可以是根据参数确定的一段连续时间。例如,在时隙n被触发资源选择,感知窗口为
Figure PCTCN2021111007-appb-000001
其中,T 0由高层参数配置,
Figure PCTCN2021111007-appb-000002
可以根据表2确定。
表2
Figure PCTCN2021111007-appb-000003
取决于子载波间隔
Figure PCTCN2021111007-appb-000004
其中,μ SL表示子载波间隔,
Figure PCTCN2021111007-appb-000005
的单位可以为时隙。
可以理解,图38-图41是对感知窗口与DRX的激活期和休眠期的关系的示例性说明,并不构成限定,感知窗口与DRX的激活期和/或休眠期还可以是其它重叠方式,在此不加限定。
因此,当第一终端设备处于DRX时,第一终端设备可以根据第一比例确定资源选择方式。第一比例为DRX的激活时间和感知窗口的重叠时间与感知窗口的比例。资源选择方式可以为 感知方式,也可以为随机选择方式。感知方式可以为感知,也可以为部分感知。感知的感知窗口是连续的一段时间。部分感知的感知窗口可以是连续的一段时间,也可以是非连续的一些时隙的集合。
第一终端设备可以先确定或计算第一比例,之后可以判断第一比例是否大于(或者大于或等于)第五阈值时,当判断出第一比例大于(或者大于或等于)第五阈值时,表明通过感知方式可以获取感知结果的时间较长,感知结果可以信任,由于感知结果变少带来的干扰是有限的,因此,资源选择方式可以为感知方式,可以通过感知方式确定传输资源。当判断出第一比例小于或等于(或者小于)第五阈值时,表明通过感知方式可以获取感知结果的时间较短,通过感知方式在感知窗口内获取的感知结果过少以致无法保证通过感知方式确定的资源的可靠性,因此,资源选择方式可以为随机选择方式,后续可以通过随机选择方式确定传输资源。此处对于第一终设备计算第一比例和判断第一比例和第五阈值的大小关系的先后顺序不做限定。例如,第一终端设备可以确定或计算第一比例的同时判断第一比例是否大于第五阈值。
在一种实现方式中,随时选择方式可以使用第一资源池,感知方式可以使用第二资源池,第一资源池与第二资源池不同。即随机选择方式的资源池与感知方式的资源池为不同的资源池。例如,第一终端设备被配置了两个资源池,一个资源池中的资源用于终端设备通过感知方式使用,另一个资源池中的资源用于终端设备通过随机选择方式使用。可见,随时选择方式可以有专有的资源池,不与感知方式共享资源池。此时,被配置随机选择方式的资源池中,终端设备均通过随机选择方式确定资源,相互的干扰程度是相似的,这样对于终端设备更公平。同时减少了随机选择方式和感知方式共同配置在一个资源池中带来的不公平问题。
在另一种实现方式中,随机选择方式的资源池与感知方式的资源池为同一个资源池。例如,第一终端设备被配置了一个资源池,该资源池支持感知方式和随机选择方式的资源选择。即不论是感知、部分感知或随机选择的资源,均可以从这个资源池中选择的。此时,避免了只配置了随机选择的资源池中,使用随机选择方式的终端设备较少带来的资源浪费问题,提高了频谱利用率。
虽然,随机选择方式的资源池与感知方式的资源池可以为同一个资源池,也可以为不同的资源池,但为了降低资源冲突的概率或可能,随机选择方式与感知方式最好可以使用不同的资源池。
网络设备可以为第一终端设备配置第五阈值,以便第一终端设备可以根据第五阈值确定资源选择方式。因此,在网络设备配置了第五阈值的情况下,表明第一终端设备可以使用多种资源选择方式,第一终端设备可以根据第五阈值来确定资源选择方式,在网络设备没有配置第五阈值的情况下,表明第一终端设备只能使用感知方式,第一终端设备可以使用感知方式确定传输资源。
可以理解,第五阈值也可以是默认配置的,还可以是通过其它方式配置的,在此不加限定。
可以理解,上面几个方法实施例中定时器的激活时间的单位可以为ms、符号、时隙等单位,也可以为其它单位,在此不加限定。定时器的激活时间的单位可以为具体的单位,也可以为比较宽泛的单位,并不进行限定。
可以理解,上述几个方法实施例中相关内容可以相互参考。
可以理解,上述不同实施例之间可以相互组合使用。
