为便于理解本申请实施例的技术方案,以下对本申请实施例的相关技术进行说明,以下相关技术作为可选方案与本申请实施例的技术方案可以进行任意结合,其均属于本申请实施例的保护范围。
非连续接收(Discontinuous Reception,DRX)
为了减少终端设备的耗电,引入了DRX机制,使得终端设备在没有数据接收的情况下,可以不必一直开启接收机,而是进入了一种非连续接收的状态,从而达到省电的目的。在DRX机制中,为处于RRC连接态的终端设备配置DRX周期(DRX cycle),一个DRX cycle由“On Duration(对应DRX激活时间)”和“Opportunity for DRX(对应DRX非激活时间)”组成。在“On Duration”时间内,终端设备监听并接收包括PDCCH在内的下行信道和信号;在“Opportunity for DRX”时间内,终端设备不接收PDCCH等下行信道和信号以减少功耗。在RRC空闲状态下的终端设备需要与DRX机制类似的方式接收寻呼消息,在一个DRX周期内存在一个寻呼时机(Paging Occasion,PO),终端设备只在PO内监听寻呼PDCCH和寻呼消息,而在PO之外的时间不监听寻呼PDCCH也不接收寻呼消息,来达到省电的目的。在PO期间,终端设备通过检测通过寻呼-无线网络临时标识(Paging-Radio Network Temporary Identity,P-RNTI)加扰的寻呼PDCCH来判断是否有寻呼消息。
在5G的演进中,对终端设备的节能提出了更高的要求。例如对于现有的DRX机制,在每个on duration期间,终端设备需要不断检测PDCCH来判断基站是否调度发给自己的数据传输。但是对于大部分终端设备来说,可能在很长一段时间没有接收数据传输的需要,但是仍然需要保持定期的唤醒机制来监听可能的下行传输,对于这类终端设备,节能有进一步优化的空间。对于RRC空闲状态下的终端设备接收寻呼消息的情况也是类似。
为了优化终端设备的节能,引入了节能信号。节能信号与DRX机制结合使用,终端设备在on duration之前接收节能信号。当终端设备在一个DRX周期有数据传输时,节能信号“唤醒”终端设备,以在on duration期间监听PDCCH;否则,当终端设备在一个DRX周期没有数据传输时,节能信号不“唤醒”终端设备,终端设备在on duration期间不需要监听PDCCH。相比现有DRX机制,在终端设备没有数据传输时,终端设备可省略on duration期间的PDCCH监听,从而实现节能。终端设备在on duration之外的时间被称为DRX非激活时间,在on duration的时间被称为DRX激活时间。在一个示例中,通过节能信号指示终端设备在on duration期间是否监听PDCCH的过程如图2所示。
节能信号可以通过新定义的DCI format 2_6承载。网络配置终端设备检测承载DCI format 2_6的PDCCH的搜索空间集(search space set)。在节能信号中,单个用户所需的比特数目为最多6个,其中包括1个唤醒指示比特和最多5个辅小区休眠指示比特。 节能信号携带多个用户的指示比特以提升资源使用效率。如图3所示,网络通知每一个用户的节能指示比特在下行控制信息(Downlink Control Information,DCI)中的起始位置,而单用户的比特数目可通过配置的辅小区(载波)分组数目隐式得到(唤醒指示比特一定出现,辅小区(载波)休眠指示比特数目可以为0)。进一步地,网络还会通知终端设备DCI的总比特数目以及加扰PDCCH的PS-RNTI。
寻呼
在NR***中,网络可以向RRC空闲状态和RRC非激活状态的终端设备发送寻呼。寻呼过程可以由核心网触发或者基站触发,用于向处于RRC空闲状态和RRC非激活状态的终端设备发送寻呼请求,或者用于通知***信息更新,以及通知终端设备接收地震海啸预警信息(ETWS)以及商用移动预警服务(CMAS)等信息。基站接收到核心网的寻呼消息后,解读其中的内容,得到终端设备的跟踪区域标识(Tracking Area Identity,TAI)列表(即TA list),并在其下属于列表中的跟踪区域的小区进行空口的寻呼。寻呼消息的核心网域不会在基站解码,而是透传给终端设备。基站收到核心网的寻呼消息之后,将PO相同的终端设备的寻呼消息汇总成一条寻呼消息,通过寻呼信道传输给相关终端设备。终端设备通过***消息接收寻呼参数,结合自身UE_ID计算PO,在相应的PO上接收寻呼消息。寻呼消息通过物理下行共享信道(Physical Downlink Shared CHannel,PDSCH)承载,终端设备通过检测用P-RNTI加扰的PDCCH获得寻呼指示信息,从而接收寻呼消息。处于RRC空闲状态的终端设备会通过DRX的方式省电,在一个DRX周期中的PF上的PO监听通过P-RNTI加扰的PDCCH,进而接收寻呼消息,其中,终端设备从SIB2获取DRX相关配置信息。
PF表示寻呼消息应该出现在哪个***帧号上,PO则表示可能出现的时刻。一个PF可能包括1个或多个PO,在每个DRX周期或者寻呼周期(Paging Cycle)内,终端设备只需要监听其中属于自己的PO。
满足下面公式的***帧号(System Frame Number,SFN)即可作为一个PF帧:
(SFN+PF_offset)mod T=(T div N)*(UE_ID mod N);
在PF内,可以根据下面公式计算终端设备对应的PO的索引(index),即i_s。
i_s=floor(UE_ID/N)mod Ns。
其中,T表示终端设备的DRX周期。如果将***消息中指示的默认DRX周期记为T_sib的话,则如果已经配置了终端设备的DRX值T_ue,那么T=min(T_ue,T_sib);如果没有配置T_ue,则使用***消息中指示的默认值,T=T_sib。UE_ID=(5G-S-TMSI mod 1024),5G-S-TMSI为终端设备标识信息。N为T内的PF的个数。Ns为一个PF内的PO的个数。PF_offset为用于确定PF的帧偏移量。作为一个示例,一个DRX周期内的PF的位置以及PF内的PO的位置如图4所示。
在NR技术中,对于idle状态的UE,基站并不知道用什么波束为UE发送寻呼,因此采用了波速扫描的方式发送寻呼。为了支持寻呼的多波束发送,一个PO定义为一组PDCCH监听时机,一个PF可以包含一个或多个PO或者PO的起始时间点。对于寻呼搜索空间的SearchSpaceId=0的情况下,由于每个SSB index对应一个PDCCH监听时机,不同SSB index对应不同的波束,因此通过一个PO的多个与不同SSB index对应的PDCCH监听时机,可以支持寻呼的多波束发送。
RRC空闲状态的终端设备的节能
处于RRC空闲状态的终端设备在自己对应的PO上周期性的监听寻呼PDCCH。但是实际情况下,终端设备被寻呼到的概率可能并不高,终端设备周期性的在对应的PO上监听寻呼PDCCH,但是没有监听到发给自己的寻呼PDCCH,会造成功率的浪费。与针对RRC连接状态的终端设备的节能类似,对RRC空闲状态的终端设备接收寻呼消息 的节能进行了优化,引入了类似的节能信号。一种节能信号称为提前寻指示(Paging Early Indication,PEI),用于在目标PO到达之前指示终端设备是否在该PO上监听寻呼PDCCH。节能信号可以是基于序列的信号,也可以是基于PDCCH信道的信号。其中,采用PDCCH信道承载节能信号可以沿用现有的PDCCH设计,因此与现有的***和其他信道易于兼容和复用。基于PDCCH信道的节能信号也可以承载更多的节能信息,例如可以承载子分组(sub-grouping)信息,用于指示节能信息对应的子分组。这里,子分组针对通过UE_ID计算对应到一个PO的多个终端设备的进一步分组,子分组信息结合节能信息,可以更加精细的指示在目标PO是否需要接收寻呼的终端设备。
如图5所示,一个节能信号指示一个或多个子组的终端设备在对应的PF或者PO上是否监听寻呼PDCCH。
对于RRC空闲状态和RRC非激活状态的终端设备,可以根据前述相关方案确定需要监听寻呼PDCCH的PO,然而,对于节能信号的监听时机,相关技术没有明确如何确定节能信号的监听时机。为此,提出了本申请实施例的以下技术方案。
为便于理解本申请实施例的技术方案,以下通过具体实施例详述本申请的技术方案。以上相关技术作为可选方案与本申请实施例的技术方案可以进行任意结合,其均属于本申请实施例的保护范围。本申请实施例包括以下内容中的至少部分内容。

以下结合具体应用实例对本申请实施例的技术方案进行举例说明。需要说明的是,以下应用实例中,应用实例一对应于上述方案一,应用实例二对应于上述方案二,应用实例三对应于上述方案三,其中,应用实例三可以独立于应用实例一和应用实例二进行实施,也可以与应用实例一或应用实例二结合起来实施。需要说明的是,以下应用实例中,以寻呼单元为PO为例进行说明的,寻呼单元为PF的情况同样适用于以下应用实例。
应用实例一
终端设备根据目标PO(即该终端设备对应的PO),将该目标PO对应的PEI的监听时机作为目标监听时机。这里,为了通过PEI指示是否在其关联的PO监听寻呼PDCCH,每个PO都有关联的PEI的监听时机。
网络会配置一个包含PEI的监听时机的时间窗口,如图7所示,该时间窗口内的PEI的监听时机与目标PO关联,终端设备根据网络的配置可以确定在哪个时间窗口需要监听PEI。
本实施例中,终端设备根据其对应的目标PO,确定该目标PO关联的PEI的监听时机。这里,终端设备确定其对应的PF和PO的方式可以参照前述相关方案,其中,终端设备确定出的PF可以称为目标PF,确定出的PO可以称为目标PO。终端设备确定出目标PO后,根据目标PO的时域位置确定对应的PEI的监听时机所在的时间窗口。
具体的,终端设备根据目标PO的时域位置以及网络配置的参数确定PEI的监听时 机所在的时间窗口。例如,如图7所示,网络配置参数PEI-offset1和PEI-offset2,参数PEI-offset1用于指示时间窗口的起始时间相对于目标PO的起始时间的偏移量,参数PEI-offset2用于指示时间窗口的结束时间相对于目标PO的起始时间的偏移量。
本实施例中,终端设备根据目标PO,以及PEI与目标PO之间的时间关系,确定目标PO对应的PEI的监听时机。具体的,终端设备只需要在目标PO对应的PEI的监听时机监听PEI,而不需要在非目标PO对应的PEI的监听时机监听PEI。因为非目标PO上网络不会发送该终端设备对应的寻呼消息,因此终端设备无需在非目标PO对应的PEI的监听时机监听PEI。这样可以减少终端设备的耗电。如图8所示,终端设备只在目标PO对应的PEI监听时机集合监听PEI。
应用实例二
终端设备根据目标PO组(即该终端设备对应的PO所属的PO组),将该目标PO组对应的PEI的监听时机作为目标监听时机。
这里,一个PEI可以指示多个PO的PEI信息,如指示在时间上连续的多个PO的PEI信息。该多个PO可以成为PEI对应的PO组。如图9所示,一个PEI对应了3个PO,该PEI中指示了3个PO的PEI信息,即指示3个PO中的每个PO上是否需要监听寻呼PDCCH。
可选地,可以将PO对应的终端组划分成多个子组,通过PEI可以指示一个或者多个PO中对应的各个子组的PEI信息。如图10所示,以一个PEI对应N个PO为例,N为正整数,N个PO中的每个PO都对应一个终端组,终端组被划分了多个子组,其中,不同的终端组被划分的子组的数目可以相同或者不同。N个PO对应N个终端组,以每个终端组都被划分了6个子组为例,PEI共可以指示N×6个子组的PEI信息。
本实施例中,本实施例中,终端设备根据其对应的目标PO,确定该目标PO所属的目标PO组关联的PEI的监听时机。这里,终端设备确定其对应的PF和PO的方式可以参照前述相关方案,其中,终端设备确定出的PF可以称为目标PF,确定出的PO可以称为目标PO;目标PO所属的PO组可以称为目标PO组。终端设备确定出目标PO组后,根据目标PO组的时域位置确定对应的PEI的监听时机所在的时间窗口。
这里,网络可以配置PEI对应多个PO(即PEI对应一个PO组)。终端设备根据网络配置的PO组的配置信息,可以确定PO组包含的PO的个数和时域位置。终端设备根据目标PO的时域位置和PO组包含的PO的时域位置,确定目标PO所属的PO组。
具体的,终端设备根据目标PO组的时域位置以及网络配置的参数确定PEI的监听时机所在的时间窗口。例如,与图7类似,网络配置参数PEI-offset1和PEI-offset2,参数PEI-offset1用于指示时间窗口的起始时间相对于目标PO组中第一个PO的起始时间的偏移量,参数PEI-offset2用于指示时间窗口的结束时间相对于目标PO组中第一个PO的起始时间的偏移量。
本实施例中,终端设备只需要在目标PO所属的PO组对应的PEI的监听时机监听PEI。当PO组不包含目标PO时,终端设备不需要在该PO组对应的PEI的监听时机监听PEI。如图11所示,当目标PO组包含目标PO,终端设备在目标PO组对应PEI的监听时机集合监听PEI。当目标PO组不包含目标PO,终端设备在目标PO组对应PEI的监听时机集合不监听PEI。
应用实例三
终端设备将承载可用的TRS/CSI-RS传输时机集合的指示信息的PEI的监听时机,作为目标监听时机。
对于处于RRC空闲状态或非激活状态下的终端设备,终端设备在其对应的PO检测寻呼之前,需要进行时频跟踪和自动增益控制(Automatic Gain Control,AGC),由于 RRC空闲状态的终端设备没有被配置TRS/CSI-RS等参考信号,只能利用周期发送的SS/PBCH block(以下简称SSB)进行时频同步。为了减少进一步接收寻呼的功耗,引入了为RRC空闲状态下的终端设备配置TRS/CSI-RS,用于RRC空闲状态下的终端设备进行时频跟踪。
对于处于RRC空闲状态或非激活状态下的终端设备,TRS/CSI-RS的配置可能通过公共消息进行配置,如***消息。TRS/CSI-RS的资源具有一定的周期性,即TRS/CSI-RS的传输时机周期性出现。但是对于处于RRC空闲状态或非激活状态下的终端设备,为了节能,并不需要在所有的传输时机对TRS/CSI-RS进行接收。TRS/CSI-RS的主要用途在于在PO到达之前终端设备通过TRS/CSI-RS进行时频跟踪和AGC等。如果终端设备不需要在PO上接收寻呼,则不需要对TRS/CSI-RS进行检测,以达到节能的效果。
终端设备需要确定可用的TRS/CSI-RS传输时机集合的位置,为此,可以在PEI中指示可用的TRS/CSI-RS传输时机集合。终端设备需要接收PEI以获得可用的TRS/CSI-RS传输时机集合的信息。为此,如果终端设备有需求通过PEI获得可用的TRS/CSI-RS传输时机集合的指示信息,那么终端设备还需要确定该PEI的监听时机。
本实施例中,终端设备根据承载可用的TRS/CSI-RS传输时机集合的指示信息的PEI的监听时机,确定目标PEI监听时机。具体的,并不是所有的PEI都需要承载可用的TRS/CSI-RS传输时机集合的指示信息。网络可以配置在哪些PEI监听时机上传输承载可用的TRS/CSI-RS传输时机集合指示信息的PEI。可用TRS/CSI-RS传输时机集合的指示信息指示了可用TRS/CSI-RS传输时机集合有效的时间段。网络可以周期性的通过PEI发送该指示信息,由于网络可以更新该指示信息,或者为了在不同的时间开始接收PEI信息的终端设备获得该指示信息,因此,承载该指示信息的PEI的监听时机集合和与根据终端设备对应的目标PO确定的PEI监听时机集合是解耦的,即可能是不相同的。
为了使终端设备通过PEI获得可用TRS/CSI-RS传输时机集合的指示信息,可以采用以下方法:
方法1:网络可以在所有PO或者PO组对应的PEI的监听时机上发送的PEI都承载可用的TRS/CSI-RS传输时机集合的指示信息;
方法2:网络配置承载可用的TRS/CSI-RS传输时机集合的指示信息的PEI的监听时机集合,终端设备需要监听这些PEI的监听时机,以获得可用TRS/CSI-RS传输时机集合的指示信息。
本申请实施例的上述技术方案,终端设备可以明确PEI的监听时机,从而可以减少对PEI不必要的监听,达到终端设备节电的目的。
