下面详细描述本申请的实施例,所述实施例的示例在附图中示出,其中自始至终相同或类似的标号表示相同或类似的要素。下面通过参考附图描述的实施例是示例性的,旨在用于解释本申请,而不能理解为对本申请的限制。
为了更好的理解本申请实施例公开的一种时钟同步方法,下面首先对本申请实施例适用的通信***进行描述。
请参见图1a和图1b,图1a为本申请实施例提供的一种通信***的架构示意图,图1b为本申请实施例提供的另一种通信***的架构示意图。该通信***可包括但不限于两个终端设备,图1a和图1b所示的设备数量和形态仅用于举例并不构成对本申请实施例的限定,实际应用中可以包括两个以上的终端设备。图1a和图1b所示的通信***以包括三个终端设备101,102和103为例。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例的技术方案可以应用于各种通信***。例如:长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)***、第五代移动通信***、5G新空口***,或者其他未来的新型移动通信***等。
本申请实施例中的终端设备101,终端设备102和终端设备103是用户侧的一种用于接收或发射信号的实体,如手机。终端设备也可以称为终端设备(terminal)、用户设备(user equipment,UE)、移动台(Mobile Station,MS)、移动终端设备(Mobile Terminal,MT)等。终端设备可以是具备通信功 能的汽车、智能汽车、手机(Mobile Phone)、穿戴式设备、平板电脑(Pad)、带无线收发功能的电脑、虚拟现实(Virtual Reality,VR)终端设备、增强现实(Augmented Reality,AR)终端设备、工业控制(Industrial Control)中的无线终端设备、无人驾驶(Self-Driving)中的无线终端设备、远程手术(Remote Medical Surgery)中的无线终端设备、智能电网(Smart Grid)中的无线终端设备、运输安全(Transportation Safety)中的无线终端设备、智慧城市(Smart City)中的无线终端设备、智慧家庭(Smart Home)中的无线终端设备等等。本申请的实施例对终端设备所采用的具体技术和具体设备形态不做限定。
在通信***中,为了支持终端设备与终端设备之间的直接通信,引入了侧行链路(sidelink)的通信方式。为了节约侧行链路中终端设备的功耗,在R17中引入了侧行链路非连续接收(Discontinuous Reception,DRX),接收UE(User Equipment,用户设备)只在激活时间内监听PSCCH(PysicalSidelink Control Channel,物理侧行链路控制信道),为了避免数据丢失,发送UE只在激活时间内发送侧行链路数据。当终端设备发送sidelink CSI MAC CE((CSI,Channel State Information,信道状态信息)(MAC,Medium Access Control,媒体接入控制层)(CE,Control Element,控制元素,或称控制单元))之后也会进入激活状态,接收对端终端设备发送的CSI测量报告。
如图1a所示,图1a在终端设备101选择sidelink的发送资源时,为了避免碰撞,终端设备101需要对资源进行感知,避免选择其他终端设备已经预留的资源。但是有时终端设备101的感知可能无法实现,比如有些终端设备不具备感知能力,或者由于半双工终端设备不能感知到所有资源。在这种场景下,其他终端设备(比如终端设备102和终端设备103)可以将感知后所获取的终端设备间协调信息发送给终端设备101,终端设备101基于该终端设备间协调信息选择发送资源。终端设备间协调信息可以包括检测到冲突的资源,不能选择的资源或者可以选择的资源。终端设备间协调信息可以携带于SL(sidelink,侧行链路)MACCE或者SCI(sidelink control information,侧行链路控制信息)通过sidelink发送给终端设备101。终端设备101可以向终端设备102和终端设备103发送终端设备间协调信息请求,终端设备102和终端设备103收到请求之后向终端设备101发送终端设备间协调信息。
在通信***中,终端设备也可以不直接与网络设备相连,而是通过另一终端设备的中继来实现与网络设备的通信,不直接与网络设备相连的终端设备称为远端终端设备(remote UE),提供中继功能的终端设备称为中继终端设备(relay UE),远端终端设备与中继终端设备之间也通过sidelink通信。
中继终端设备和远端终端设备可以通过发现(discovery)过程进行彼此的发现,在发现过程启动后,终端设备可以发送或者接收发现信号。发现信号中携带终端设备的服务小区标识,终端设备标识等信息。
发现过程有两种模式,模式A和B。所有发现消息都通过发现信号携带。
模式B的流程如图1b所示,终端设备101(也被称作discoverer)发送征集消息,征集消息中可以携带发现类型,询问代码,安全防护信息等。其他终端设备(终端设备102和终端设备103(也被称作discoveree))收到征集消息后,与征集消息匹配的终端设备102发送回复消息,完成发现过程。
在一些情况下,终端设备101发送终端设备间协调信息请求之后,终端设备102和终端设备103可能不会立即发送终端设备间协调信息,比如终端设备102和终端设备103可能需要先进行资源选择或者资源感知。如果终端设备101配置了DRX,此时终端设备101可能已经进入睡眠状态,无法接收终端设备102和终端设备103发送的终端设备间协调信息,从而无法进行资源选择,导致延迟发送,如果延迟超过了待发数据的最大时延,待发数据会被丢弃。
终端设备101发送发现信号(模式B)之后,终端设备102和终端设备103可能不会立即回复发现信号,比如终端设备102和终端设备103可能需要先进行资源选择或者进行上行发送。如果终端设备101配置了DRX,此时终端设备101可能已经进入睡眠状态,无法接收终端设备102和终端设备103发送的发现信号,从而无法完成发现过程,导致通信延迟,甚至失败。
可以理解的是,本申请实施例描述的通信***是为了更加清楚的说明本申请实施例的技术方案,并不构成对于本申请实施例提供的技术方案的限定,本领域普通技术人员可知,随着***架构的演变和新业务场景的出现,本申请实施例提供的技术方案对于类似的技术问题,同样适用。
