目前,在RAN1会议中提出继续研究超深度睡眠模式。终端设备可以进入超深度睡眠模式以延长终端设备的电池的续航时间。然而,终端设备从超深度睡眠模式醒过来需要更长的时间,唤醒过程需要消耗更多的状态转换能量,影响终端设备的续航时间。因此,如何实现终端设备能够快速从超深度睡眠模式醒过来以执行相应的功能,是值得考虑的问题。本申请提供了相应的技术方案,具体请参阅后文实施例的相关介绍。Currently, it is proposed at the RAN1 meeting to continue studying ultra-deep sleep modes. The terminal device can enter the ultra-deep sleep mode to extend the battery life of the terminal device. However, it takes longer for the terminal device to wake up from ultra-deep sleep mode, and the wake-up process consumes more state transition energy, affecting the battery life of the terminal device. Therefore, how to enable terminal devices to quickly wake up from ultra-deep sleep mode to perform corresponding functions is an issue worth considering. This application provides corresponding technical solutions. For details, please refer to the relevant introduction of the embodiments below.
下面介绍本申请涉及的技术术语。The technical terms involved in this application are introduced below.
超深度睡眠模式(ultra-deep sleep mode):在超深度睡眠模式下,终端设备保持极低的电流水平。例如,终端设备保持的电流水平低于数10微安,典型值在1微安到10微安之间不等。终端设备在超深度睡眠模式下,只有少量功能的代码存储于动态存储器,极低功率消耗用于保持动态存储器不掉电以及维持基本定时时钟,其他的功能的代码存储于静态存储器。这样终端设备在该超深度睡眠模式下,终端设备可以保持极低的电流水平,从而降低终端设备的功耗。需要说明的是,本申请对超深度睡眠模式的名称不做限定。例如,还可以称为超级深度睡眠模式、或极深度睡眠模式等,具体本申请不做限定。Ultra-deep sleep mode: In ultra-deep sleep mode, the terminal device maintains extremely low current levels. For example, end devices maintain current levels below several 10 microamps, with typical values ranging from 1 microamp to 10 microamps. When the terminal device is in ultra-deep sleep mode, only a small number of functional codes are stored in dynamic memory. Extremely low power consumption is used to keep the dynamic memory from losing power and maintaining the basic timing clock. Other functional codes are stored in static memory. In this way, the terminal device can maintain an extremely low current level in the ultra-deep sleep mode, thereby reducing the power consumption of the terminal device. It should be noted that this application does not limit the name of the ultra-deep sleep mode. For example, it can also be called super deep sleep mode, or extremely deep sleep mode, etc., which is not specifically limited in this application.

For example, end devices maintain current levels in the milliamp range. When the terminal device is in deep sleep mode, the code used to implement most or all functions of the terminal device is stored in the dynamic memory, and the terminal's main radio frequency channel and baseband processing unit can be turned off. In the deep sleep mode of the terminal device, the terminal device can maintain a lower current level, thereby reducing the power consumption of the terminal device.

例如,下面结合表2介绍该一个或多个功能中每个功能对应的唤醒数值。For example, the wake-up value corresponding to each function in the one or more functions is introduced below in conjunction with Table 2.
表2
Table 2
由上述表2可知,每个功能都对应一个唤醒数值,具体表示为WLU的数量。通过上述表2所示,可以体现终端设备在第一睡眠模式唤醒后支持一个功能所需要的WLU的数量。该功能对应的WLU的数量在一定程度上可以反映终端设备在第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行该功能所需的时间。也就是该终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后准确执行该功能所需要的时间。关于WLU与唤醒时间的关系请参阅后文表8的相关介绍。As can be seen from Table 2 above, each function corresponds to a wake-up value, which is specifically expressed as the number of WLUs. As shown in Table 2 above, it can be reflected that the number of WLUs required by the terminal device to support one function after waking up from the first sleep mode. The number of WLUs corresponding to this function can, to a certain extent, reflect the time required for the terminal device to wake up in the first sleep mode to perform this function. That is, the time required for the terminal device to accurately perform the function after waking up from the first sleep mode. For the relationship between WLU and wake-up time, please refer to the relevant introduction in Table 8 below.
需要说明的是,上述实现方式A中示出的是能力信息包括该一个或多个功能中每个功能对应的唤醒数值的方案。实际应用中,该一个或多个功能中每个功能对应的唤醒数值也可以是通信协议预定义或预配置的,具体本申请不做限定。It should be noted that the above implementation mode A shows a solution in which the capability information includes the wake-up value corresponding to each function in the one or more functions. In actual applications, the wake-up value corresponding to each function in the one or more functions may also be predefined or preconfigured by the communication protocol, which is not specifically limited in this application.

The wake-up time corresponding to each function refers to the wake-up time required for the terminal device to wake up from the first sleep mode to perform the function. That is, the wake-up time required for the terminal device to prepare to perform the function after waking up from the first sleep mode.
例如,下面结合表3介绍该一个或多个功能中每个功能对应的唤醒时间。For example, the wake-up time corresponding to each function in the one or more functions is introduced below in conjunction with Table 3.
表3

table 3

由上述表3中,每个功能都对应一个唤醒时间,体现为终端设备在第一睡眠模式唤醒后准备执行该功能所需的唤醒时间。From the above Table 3, each function corresponds to a wake-up time, which is reflected in the wake-up time required for the terminal device to prepare to execute the function after waking up from the first sleep mode.
需要说明的是,上述表3中每个功能的唤醒时间仅仅是一种示例。上述表3所示的唤醒时间为2ms、5ms以及10ms三个挡位,实际应用中,可以划分为更细的挡位。例如,2ms、4ms、6ms以及10ms四个挡位,具体本申请不做限定。实际应结合该终端设备的实现确定每个功能对应的唤醒时间。It should be noted that the wake-up time of each function in Table 3 above is just an example. The wake-up time shown in Table 3 above has three gears: 2ms, 5ms and 10ms. In practical applications, it can be divided into finer gears. For example, there are four gears: 2ms, 4ms, 6ms and 10ms, which are not specifically limited in this application. The wake-up time corresponding to each function should actually be determined based on the implementation of the terminal device.
需要说明的是,上述实现方式B示出的是能力信息包括该一个或多个功能中每个功能对应的唤醒时间的方案。实际应用中,该一个或多个功能中每个功能对应的唤醒时间也可以是通信协议预定义或预配置的,具体本申请不做限定。It should be noted that the above implementation B shows a solution in which the capability information includes the wake-up time corresponding to each function in the one or more functions.

在该实现方式中,能力信息还包括终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以准备执行该终端设备的一个功能所需的能量或功率与终端设备执行该功能所需的能量或功率之间的比值。从而便于网络设备基于能力信息配置终端设备执行相应的功能。In this implementation, the capability information further includes a ratio between the energy or power required by the terminal device to wake up from the first sleep mode to prepare to perform a function of the terminal device and the energy or power required by the terminal device to perform the function. This facilitates the network device to configure the terminal device to perform corresponding functions based on the capability information.
实现方式二:第一功能信息包括终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后支持的一个或多个功能组合。Implementation manner 2: The first function information includes one or more function combinations supported by the terminal device after waking up from the first sleep mode.
如前述技术术语中的相关介绍可知,该一个或多个功能组合中每个功能组合包括至少一个功能。每个功能组合可以实现对应的业务。例如,如下表4所示,PRS接收和PUSCH传输构成的功能组合对应用于下行终端设备辅助定位业务。SSB同步和SRS发送构成的功能组合对应用于上行定位业务。SSB同步、PDCCH接收、PDSCH接收(只采用QPSK调制)、以及SRS发送构成的功能组合对应用于接收通信寻呼和上行定位业务。全功能组合对应用于终端在空闲态或者非激活态支持的所有通信业务(例如,移动性测量、小区选择、小区重选、***信息读取、接收寻呼、小包数据发送)以及定位业务。As can be seen from the relevant introduction in the foregoing technical terms, each of the one or more functional combinations includes at least one function. Each functional combination can implement corresponding services. For example, as shown in Table 4 below, the functional combination of PRS reception and PUSCH transmission corresponds to the downlink terminal equipment assisted positioning service. The functional combination composed of SSB synchronization and SRS transmission corresponds to the uplink positioning service. The functional combination of SSB synchronization, PDCCH reception, PDSCH reception (only using QPSK modulation), and SRS transmission is suitable for receiving communication paging and uplink positioning services. The full-function combination corresponds to all communication services supported by the terminal in the idle state or inactive state (for example, mobility measurement, cell selection, cell reselection, system information reading, paging reception, small packet data transmission) and positioning services.
可选的,该一个或多个功能组合包括以下至少一项:用于实现定位的功能组合、用于实现下行定位的功能组合、用于实现上行定位的功能组合、用于实现往返时间定位的功能组合、用于实现下行终端设备辅助定位的功能组合、用于实现基于终端设备的下行定位的功能组合、用于实现部分通信业务(例如寻呼)和定位功能的组合,用于实现通信和定位的功能组合。Optionally, the one or more function combinations include at least one of the following: a function combination for realizing positioning, a function combination for realizing downlink positioning, a function combination for realizing uplink positioning, and a function combination for realizing round-trip time positioning.

下面结合表4介绍该终端设备支持的一些功能组合。 The following is an introduction to some function combinations supported by this terminal device in conjunction with Table 4.
表4
Table 4
上述表4示出了终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后支持的一些功能组合。上述表3中,正常(normal)功能组合也可以称为全功能组合。正常功能组合是指常规终端设备唤醒后的拥有通信和定位等功能的组合。如果终端设备经过一定时间从第一睡眠模式唤醒后能够执行该正常功能组合,则表示该终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后具有常规终端设备唤醒后拥有的通信能力和定位能力。对于上述表3的其他功能组合,终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后具有的能力是有限的,即终端设备具有对应的功能组合中的至少一个功能。在该情况下,终端设备具有降能力的特性。The above Table 4 shows some function combinations supported by the terminal device after waking up from the first sleep mode. In the above Table 3, the normal function combination can also be called a full function combination. The normal function combination refers to the combination of communication, positioning and other functions after the conventional terminal device wakes up. If the terminal device can perform the normal function combination after waking up from the first sleep mode after a certain period of time, it means that the terminal device has the communication capabilities and positioning capabilities that a conventional terminal device has after waking up from the first sleep mode. For other function combinations in Table 3 above, the capabilities of the terminal device after waking up from the first sleep mode are limited, that is, the terminal device has at least one function in the corresponding function combination. In this case, the terminal device has degraded capabilities.
可选的,基于实现方式二,下面介绍能力信息还包括的内容的几种可能的实现方式。Optionally, based on implementation method 2, the following introduces several possible implementation methods for content included in the capability information.
实现方式1:该能力信息还包括该一个或多个功能组合中每个功能组合对应的唤醒数值。关于唤醒数值请参阅前述技术术语的相关介绍。Implementation Mode 1: The capability information also includes the wake-up value corresponding to each function combination in the one or more function combinations. Regarding the wake-up value, please refer to the relevant introduction of the aforementioned technical terms.
例如,下面结合表5介绍该一个或多个功能组合中每个功能组合对应的唤醒数值。For example, the wake-up value corresponding to each function combination in the one or more function combinations is introduced below in conjunction with Table 5.
表5

table 5

由上述表5可知,每个功能组合都对应一个唤醒数值,具体表示为WLU的数量。As can be seen from Table 5 above, each function combination corresponds to a wake-up value, which is specifically expressed as the number of WLUs.
可选的,对于终端设备在第一睡眠模式唤醒后支持的一个功能组合,终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后执行该功能组合中的功能的顺序没有限定。例如,对于PRS接收+PUSCH传输,终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后可以先执行PRS接收,再执行PUSCH传输;或者,终端设备从第一睡眠模式换新后可以先执行PUSCH传输,再执行PRS接收。Optionally, for a function combination supported by the terminal device after waking up from the first sleep mode, there is no limit on the order in which the terminal device executes the functions in the function combination after waking up from the first sleep mode. For example, for PRS reception + PUSCH transmission, the terminal device can first perform PRS reception after waking up from the first sleep mode, and then perform PUSCH transmission; or, after changing from the first sleep mode, the terminal device can first perform PUSCH transmission, and then perform PRS take over.
可选的,该一个或多个功能组合中每个功能组合包括的多个功能的顺序是该终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后支持执行的功能顺序。在该实现方式中,对于终端设备在第一睡眠模式唤醒后支持的一个功能组合,终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后按照该功能组合包括的多个功能的顺序执行该多个功能。Optionally, the order of the multiple functions included in each of the one or more function combinations is the order of functions that the terminal device supports execution after waking up from the first sleep mode. In this implementation, for a function combination supported by the terminal device after waking up from the first sleep mode, the terminal device executes the multiple functions in the order of the multiple functions included in the function combination after waking up from the first sleep mode.
例如,如表6所示,该一个或多个功能组合对应的WLU的数量。For example, as shown in Table 6, the number of WLUs corresponding to one or more function combinations.
表6
Table 6
上述表6中,对于功能组合:SSB同步+PDCCH接收+PDSCH接收(只采用QPSK调制)+SRS发送,其对应的WLU的数量为10。对于功能组合:SSB同步+SRS发送+PDCCH接收+PDSCH接收(normal)其对应的WLU的数量为9。由此可知,每个功能组合对应的WLU的数量是终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后有序的执行该功能组合中的多个功能所需要的WLU的数量。如果两个功能组合中包括的功能类型相同,但功能的顺序不同,那么这两个功能组合对应的WLU的数量可以不同。在该实现方式中,因此,上述表6所示的功能组合对应的WLU的数量也可以称为有序的功能组合对应的WLU的数量。In the above Table 6, for the function combination: SSB synchronization + PDCCH reception + PDSCH reception (only using QPSK modulation) + SRS transmission, the corresponding number of WLUs is 10. For the function combination: SSB synchronization + SRS transmission + PDCCH reception + PDSCH reception (normal), the corresponding number of WLUs is 9. It can be seen from this that the number of WLUs corresponding to each function combination is the number of WLUs required for the terminal device to orderly execute multiple functions in the function combination after waking up from the first sleep mode. If the function types included in two function combinations are the same but the order of the functions is different, the number of WLUs corresponding to the two function combinations can be different. In this implementation, therefore, the number of WLUs corresponding to the function combinations shown in Table 6 above can also be called the number of WLUs corresponding to the ordered function combinations.
需要说明的是,可选的,功能组合包括的多个功能的顺序可以指终端设备向网络设备上报该功能组合包括的多个功能的上报顺序。It should be noted that, optionally, the order of multiple functions included in the function combination may refer to the reporting order in which the terminal device reports the multiple functions included in the function combination to the network device.
需要说明的是,终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后按照一个功能组合包括的多个功能的顺序执行该多个功能。即终端设备执行该功能组合中的一个功能不会早于该功能组合中该功能的前一个功能。若终端设备多次执行该功能,该功能的执行顺序以终端设备第一次执行该功能的顺序为准。例如,功能A+功能B+功能C+功能B对应的功能组合表示为功能A+功能B+功能C。It should be noted that after waking up from the first sleep mode, the terminal device executes multiple functions included in a function combination in the order of the functions. That is, the terminal device will not execute a function in the function combination earlier than the previous function of the function in the function combination. If the terminal device performs this function multiple times, the order in which the terminal device performs the function for the first time shall prevail. For example, the function combination corresponding to function A+function B+function C+function B is expressed as function A+function B+function C.
需要说明的是,上述实现方式1示出的是能力信息包括该一个或多个功能组合中每个功能组合对应的唤醒数值的方案。实际应用中,一种可能的实现方式中,通信协议可以预定义或预配置该一个或多个功能组合中每个功能组合对应的唤醒数值。另一种可能的实现方式中,通信协议可以预定义或预配置该一个或多个功能对应的唤醒数值。终端设备在后文步骤402向网络设备发送该能力信息。网络设备可以根据该终端设备支持的一个或多个功能以及该一个或多个功能对应的唤醒数值确定各个功能组合对应的唤醒数值,具体本申请不做限定。It should be noted that the above implementation mode 1 shows a solution in which the capability information includes the wake-up value corresponding to each function combination in the one or more function combinations. In practical applications, in a possible implementation, the communication protocol can predefine or preconfigure the wake-up value corresponding to each function combination in the one or more function combinations. In another possible implementation, the communication protocol can predefine or preconfigure the wake-up value corresponding to the one or more functions. The terminal device sends the capability information to the network device in step 402 below. The network device may determine the wake-up value corresponding to each function combination based on one or more functions supported by the terminal device and the wake-up value corresponding to the one or more functions, which is not limited in this application.
实现方式2:该能力信息还包括该一个或多个功能组合中每个功能组合对应的唤醒时间。每个功能组合对应的唤醒时间是指终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行该功能组合包括的多个功能所需的唤醒时间。即终端设备从第一唤醒模式唤醒后准备执行该功能组合所需的唤醒时间。Implementation 2: The capability information also includes the wake-up time corresponding to each function combination in the one or more function combinations. The wake-up time corresponding to each function combination refers to the wake-up time required for the terminal device to wake up from the first sleep mode to execute multiple functions included in the function combination. That is, the wake-up time required for the terminal device to prepare to execute the function combination after waking up from the first wake-up mode.
例如,下面结合表7介绍该一个或多个功能组合中每个功能组合对应的唤醒时间。For example, the following describes the wake-up time corresponding to each function combination in the one or more function combinations in conjunction with Table 7.
表7

Table 7

需要说明的是,上述表7中每个功能组合对应的唤醒时间仅仅是一种示例。上述表7所示的唤醒时间为25ms、100ms或500ms三个挡位。实际应用中,可以划分为更细的挡位。例如,25ms、50ms、100ms、以及500ms四个挡位,具体本申请不做限定。实际应结合该终端设备的实现确定每个功能组合对应的唤醒时间。It should be noted that the wake-up time corresponding to each function combination in Table 7 above is just an example. The wake-up time shown in Table 7 above has three gears: 25ms, 100ms or 500ms. In practical applications, it can be divided into finer gears. For example, there are four gears of 25ms, 50ms, 100ms, and 500ms, which are not specifically limited in this application. The wake-up time corresponding to each function combination should actually be determined based on the implementation of the terminal device.
需要说明的是,上述实现方式2示出的是能力信息包括该一个或多个功能组合中每个功能组合对应的唤醒时间的方案。实际应用中,一种可能的实现方式中,通信协议可以预定义或预配置该一个或多个功能组合中每个功能组合对应的唤醒时间。另一种可能的实现方式中,通信协议可以预定义或预配置该一个或多个功能对应的唤醒时间。终端设备在后文步骤402向网络设备发送该能力信息。网络设备可以根据该终端设备支持的一个或多个功能以及该一个或多个功能对应的唤醒时间确定各个功能组合对应的唤醒时间,具体本申请不做限定。It should be noted that the above implementation mode 2 shows a solution in which the capability information includes the wake-up time corresponding to each function combination in the one or more function combinations. In practical applications, in a possible implementation, the communication protocol can predefine or preconfigure the wake-up time corresponding to each function combination in the one or more function combinations. In another possible implementation, the communication protocol can predefine or preconfigure the wake-up time corresponding to the one or more functions. The terminal device sends the capability information to the network device in step 402 below. The network device may determine the wake-up time corresponding to each function combination based on one or more functions supported by the terminal device and the wake-up time corresponding to the one or more functions, which are not specifically limited in this application.

可选的,能力信息还包括一个或多个对应关系。该一个或多个对应关系中每个对应关系包括一个唤醒阈值与唤醒时间之间的对应关系,不同对应关系是不同唤醒阈值与唤醒时间之间的对应关系。Optionally, the capability information also includes one or more corresponding relationships. Each of the one or more correspondences includes a correspondence between a wake-up threshold and a wake-up time, and different correspondences are correspondences between different wake-up thresholds and wake-up times.
在该实现方式中,示出了能力信息还包括一个或多个对应关系。当该一个功能对应的唤醒数值小于或等于一个对应关系中的唤醒阈值时,表示该终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行该功能最多所需的唤醒时间为该唤醒阈值对应的唤醒时间。或者,当该一个功能组合对应的唤醒数值小于或等于一个对应关系中的唤醒阈值时,表示该终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行该功能组合最多所需的唤醒时间为该唤醒阈值对应的唤醒时间。In this implementation, it is shown that the capability information also includes one or more corresponding relationships. When the wake-up value corresponding to a function is less than or equal to a wake-up threshold in a correspondence relationship, it means that the maximum wake-up time required for the terminal device to wake up from the first sleep mode to perform the function is the wake-up time corresponding to the wake-up threshold. Or, when the wake-up value corresponding to a function combination is less than or equal to a wake-up threshold in a corresponding relationship, it means that the maximum wake-up time required for the terminal device to wake up from the first sleep mode to execute the function combination is corresponding to the wake-up threshold. Wake up time.
例如,下面介绍该一个或多个对应关系的一种可能的示例。请参阅表8所示:For example, a possible example of the one or more corresponding relationships is introduced below. See Table 8 below:
表8
Table 8
上述表8中,唤醒阈值通过WLU的阈值表示。当终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后执行一个功能或一个功能组合对应的WLU的数量小于或等于2时,表示该终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行一个功能或一个功能组合所需的唤醒时间为20ms。当终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后执行一个功能或一个功能组合对应的WLU的数量大于2且小于或等于10时,表示该终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行一个功能或一个功能组合所需的唤醒时间为100ms。当终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后执行一个功能或一个功能组合对应的WLU的数量大于10且小于或等于50时,表示该终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行一个功能或一个功能组合所需的唤醒时间为500ms。In the above Table 8, the wake-up threshold is represented by the threshold of WLU. When the number of WLUs corresponding to a terminal device executing a function or a combination of functions after waking up from the first sleep mode is less than or equal to 2, it means that the terminal device wakes up from the first sleep mode to perform a function or a combination of functions. The time is 20ms. When the number of WLUs corresponding to a terminal device executing a function or a combination of functions after waking up from the first sleep mode is greater than 2 and less than or equal to 10, it means that the terminal device wakes up from the first sleep mode to execute a function or a combination of functions. The required wake-up time is 100ms. When the number of WLUs corresponding to a terminal device executing a function or a combination of functions after waking up from the first sleep mode is greater than 10 and less than or equal to 50, it means that the terminal device wakes up from the first sleep mode to execute a function or a combination of functions. The required wake-up time is 500ms.
例如,如上述表6所示,终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后执行SSB同步以及SRS发送对应的WLU的数量为2。因此,终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行SSB同步以及SRS发送所需要的唤醒时间为20ms。例如,如上述表6所示,终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后执行PRS接收+PUSCH传输+PDCCH接收+PDSCH接收(normal),对应的WLU的数量为12。因此,终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行PRS接收、PUSCH 传输、PDCCH接收以及PDSCH接收(normal)所需要的唤醒时间为500ms。For example, as shown in Table 6 above, the number of WLUs corresponding to the terminal device performing SSB synchronization and SRS transmission after waking up from the first sleep mode is 2. Therefore, the wake-up time required for the terminal device to wake up from the first sleep mode to perform SSB synchronization and SRS transmission is 20 ms. For example, as shown in Table 6 above, after the terminal device wakes up from the first sleep mode, it performs PRS reception + PUSCH transmission + PDCCH reception + PDSCH reception (normal), and the corresponding number of WLUs is 12. Therefore, the terminal device wakes up from the first sleep mode to perform PRS reception, PUSCH The wake-up time required for transmission, PDCCH reception and PDSCH reception (normal) is 500ms.
需要说明的是,上述表8中该一个或多个对应关系仅仅是一种示例。上述表8所示的唤醒时间为20ms、100ms或500ms三个挡位。实际应用中,可以划分为更细的挡位。例如,WLU的阈值为2,对应的唤醒时间为20ms或25ms。WLU的阈值为5,对应的唤醒时间为50ms。WLU的阈值为10,对应的唤醒时间为100ms。WLU的阈值为50,对应的唤醒时间为500ms,具体本申请不做限定。实际应结合该终端设备的实现确定该一个或多个对应关系。It should be noted that the one or more corresponding relationships in Table 8 above are only an example. The wake-up time shown in Table 8 above has three gears: 20ms, 100ms or 500ms. In practical applications, it can be divided into finer gears. For example, if the WLU threshold is 2, the corresponding wake-up time is 20ms or 25ms. The WLU threshold is 5, and the corresponding wake-up time is 50ms. The threshold of WLU is 10, and the corresponding wake-up time is 100ms. The threshold of WLU is 50, and the corresponding wake-up time is 500ms, which is not specifically limited in this application. The one or more corresponding relationships should actually be determined in conjunction with the implementation of the terminal device.
402、终端设备向网络设备发送终端设备的能力信息。相应的,网络设备接收来自终端设备的能力信息。402. The terminal device sends the capability information of the terminal device to the network device. Correspondingly, the network device receives capability information from the terminal device.
关于能力信息请参阅前述步骤401中的相关介绍。For capability information, please refer to the relevant introduction in step 401 mentioned above.
可选的,网络设备为接入网设备或定位设备,具体本申请不做限定。Optionally, the network device is an access network device or a positioning device, which is not specifically limited in this application.
可选的,图4所示的实施例还包括步骤403和步骤404。步骤403和步骤404可以在步骤402之后执行。Optionally, the embodiment shown in Figure 4 also includes step 403 and step 404. Steps 403 and 404 may be performed after step 402.
403、网络设备根据该终端设备的能力信息为终端设备确定配置信息。403. The network device determines configuration information for the terminal device based on the capability information of the terminal device.
配置信息包括网络设备为终端设备配置的第二功能信息。The configuration information includes second function information configured by the network device for the terminal device.
下面介绍第二功能信息的两种可能的实现方式。Two possible implementation methods of the second function information are introduced below.
实现方式1:该第二功能信息包括网络设备配置终端设备执行的一个或多个功能。Implementation manner 1: The second function information includes one or more functions performed by the network device configuration terminal device.
具体的,网络设备可以根据该能力信息确定终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后以执行终端设备支持的各个功能所需要的唤醒时间。然后,终端设备根据该各个功能所需要的唤醒时间为终端设备确定配置信息。该第二功能信息包括网络设备配置终端设备执行的一个或多个功能。Specifically, the network device may determine the wake-up time required for the terminal device to perform various functions supported by the terminal device after waking up from the first sleep mode based on the capability information. Then, the terminal device determines configuration information for the terminal device according to the wake-up time required for each function. The second function information includes one or more functions performed by the network device configuration terminal device.
实现方式2:该第二功能信息包括网络设备配置终端设备执行的功能组合。Implementation manner 2: The second function information includes a function combination executed by the network device configuration terminal device.
网络设备可以根据该能力信息确定终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后以执行终端设备支持的各个功能组合所需要的唤醒时间。然后,终端设备根据该各个功能组合所需要的唤醒时间为终端设备确定配置信息。该第二功能信息包括网络设备配置终端设备执行的功能组合。The network device may determine the wake-up time required for the terminal device to perform each function combination supported by the terminal device after waking up from the first sleep mode based on the capability information. Then, the terminal device determines configuration information for the terminal device according to the wake-up time required for each function combination. The second function information includes a combination of functions performed by the network device configuration terminal device.
例如,网络设备为接入网设备,终端设备为高精度低功耗定位(low power high accuracy positioning,LPHAP)终端设备,LPHAP终端设备在非激活态下进行上行定位。网络设备结合该LPHAP终端设备的能力信息以及该LPHAP终端设备的业务确定该LPHAP终端设备需要进行上行定位。而上行定位可以通过LPHAP终端设备执行SSB同步和SRS发送来实现。For example, the network device is an access network device, the terminal device is a low power high accuracy positioning (LPHAP) terminal device, and the LPHAP terminal device performs uplink positioning in an inactive state. The network device determines that the LPHAP terminal device needs to perform uplink positioning based on the capability information of the LPHAP terminal device and the service of the LPHAP terminal device. Uplink positioning can be achieved by LPHAP terminal equipment performing SSB synchronization and SRS transmission.
一种可能的实现方式中,由上述表6和表8可知,网络设备如果只配置LPHAP终端设备执行SSB同步和SRS发送,LPHAP终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行SSB同步和SRS发送所需要的唤醒时间为20ms。网络设备除了配置LPHAP终端设备执行的SSB同步和SRS发送,还配置LPHAP终端设备执行其他功能。那么LPHAP终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行网络设备配置终端设备执行的功能所需要的唤醒时间大于20ms。例如,100ms,或500ms。如果在LPHAP终端设备没有其他业务的情况下,网络设备可以配置终端设备执行SSB同步和SRS发送,并使能LPHAP终端设备的节能模式,从而使得LPHAP终端设备不接收寻呼消息。从而实现该LPHAP终端设备可以进入第一睡眠模式,并能够快速的唤醒过来以执行网络设备配置终端设备执行的功能。In a possible implementation, as can be seen from the above Table 6 and Table 8, if the network device only configures the LPHAP terminal device to perform SSB synchronization and SRS transmission, the LPHAP terminal device wakes up from the first sleep mode to perform SSB synchronization and SRS transmission. The wake-up time is 20ms. In addition to configuring the SSB synchronization and SRS transmission performed by the LPHAP terminal device, the network device also configures the LPHAP terminal device to perform other functions. Then the wake-up time required for the LPHAP terminal device to wake up from the first sleep mode to perform the function performed by the network device configuration terminal device is greater than 20 ms. For example, 100ms, or 500ms. If the LPHAP terminal device has no other services, the network device can configure the terminal device to perform SSB synchronization and SRS transmission, and enable the energy-saving mode of the LPHAP terminal device, so that the LPHAP terminal device does not receive paging messages. Thereby, the LPHAP terminal device can enter the first sleep mode and wake up quickly to perform the functions performed by the network device configuration terminal device.
另一种可能的实现方式中,网络设备配置LPHAP终端设备执行SSB同步以及SRS发送。LPHAP终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行SSB同步和SRS发送所需要的唤醒时间为20ms。网络设备还配置LPHAP终端设备执行PDCCH监测。LPHAP终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行网络设备配置LPHAP终端设备执行的功能所需要的唤醒时间为25ms。对于该网络设备来说,网络设备认为所需要的唤醒时间仅仅是多了5ms,网络设备可以配置LPHAP终端设备监测PDCCH,方便后续网络设备寻呼该LPHAP终端设备。In another possible implementation, the network device configures the LPHAP terminal device to perform SSB synchronization and SRS transmission. The wake-up time required for the LPHAP terminal device to wake up from the first sleep mode to perform SSB synchronization and SRS transmission is 20ms. The network equipment also configures the LPHAP terminal equipment to perform PDCCH monitoring. The wake-up time required for the LPHAP terminal device to wake up from the first sleep mode to perform functions configured by the network device to be performed by the LPHAP terminal device is 25 ms. For this network device, the network device believes that the required wake-up time is only 5 ms longer. The network device can configure the LPHAP terminal device to monitor the PDCCH to facilitate subsequent network devices to page the LPHAP terminal device.
下面结合终端设备的能力信息介绍网络设备确定终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后以执行终端设备支持的各个功能所需要的唤醒时间。The following describes how the network device determines the wake-up time required for the terminal device to perform various functions supported by the terminal device after waking up from the first sleep mode in combination with the capability information of the terminal device.
如上述步骤401的实现方式一所述,该终端设备的能力信息包括终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后支持的一个或多个功能。As described in the first implementation of step 401, the capability information of the terminal device includes one or more functions supported by the terminal device after waking up from the first sleep mode.
一种可能的实现方式中,通信协议中预定义或预配置该一个或多个功能中每个功能对应的唤醒数值。 In a possible implementation manner, the wake-up value corresponding to each function in the one or more functions is predefined or preconfigured in the communication protocol.
另一种可能的实现方式中,该能力信息还包括该一个或多个功能中每个功能对应的唤醒数值。In another possible implementation, the capability information also includes an awakening value corresponding to each function in the one or more functions.
基于上述示出的两种实现方式中,网络设备可以确定该一个或多个功能中每个功能对应的唤醒数值。那么网络设备可以将多个功能分别对应的唤醒数值的总和作为该终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行该多个功能所对应的唤醒数值。Based on the two implementations shown above, the network device can determine the wake-up value corresponding to each function in the one or more functions. Then the network device can use the sum of the wake-up values corresponding to the multiple functions as the wake-up value corresponding to the terminal device waking up from the first sleep mode to perform the multiple functions.
可选的,能力信息还包括一个或多个对应关系,关于该一个或多个对应关系请参阅前述的相关介绍。或者,该一个或多个对应关系是通信协议预定义或预配置的,具体本申请不做限定。网络设备通过该多个功能所对应的唤醒数量和该一个或多个对应关系确定该终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行该多个功能所需要的唤醒时间。Optionally, the capability information also includes one or more corresponding relationships. For the one or more corresponding relationships, please refer to the related introduction mentioned above. Alternatively, the one or more corresponding relationships are predefined or preconfigured by the communication protocol, which is not specifically limited in this application. The network device determines the wake-up time required for the terminal device to wake up from the first sleep mode to perform the multiple functions through the number of wake-ups corresponding to the multiple functions and the one or more corresponding relationships.
例如,网络设备通过上述表1确定终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后支持SRS传输以及SSB同步。网络设备通过上述表2确定:终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行SSB同步所对应的WLU的数量为1、以及终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行SRS传输所对应的WLU的数量为1。因此,网络设备确定该终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行SSB同步和SRS传输所对应的WLU的数量总和为2。而网络设备通过上述表8可知,该WLU的数量总和等于2,因此网络设备可以确定该终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行SSB同步和SRS传输所需要的唤醒时间为20ms。For example, the network device determines through the above Table 1 that the terminal device supports SRS transmission and SSB synchronization after waking up from the first sleep mode. The network device determines through the above Table 2 that the number of WLUs corresponding to the terminal device waking up from the first sleep mode to perform SSB synchronization is 1, and the number of WLUs corresponding to the terminal device waking up from the first sleep mode to perform SRS transmission is 1. . Therefore, the network device determines that the total number of WLUs corresponding to the terminal device waking up from the first sleep mode to perform SSB synchronization and SRS transmission is 2. The network device can know from the above Table 8 that the sum of the number of WLUs is equal to 2, so the network device can determine that the wake-up time required for the terminal device to wake up from the first sleep mode to perform SSB synchronization and SRS transmission is 20 ms.
再一种可能的实现方式中,该能力信息还包括该一个或多个功能中每个功能对应的唤醒时间。在该实现方式中,网络设备可以确定该一个或多个功能中每个功能对应的唤醒时间。网络设备将多个功能分别对应的唤醒时间的总和作为该终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒以执行该多个功能所需的唤醒时间。In another possible implementation manner, the capability information also includes the wake-up time corresponding to each function in the one or more functions. In this implementation, the network device may determine the wake-up time corresponding to each function in the one or more functions. The network device uses the sum of the wake-up times corresponding to the multiple functions as the wake-up time required for the terminal device to wake up from the first sleep mode to execute the multiple functions.
下面结合终端设备的能力信息介绍网络设备确定终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后以执行终端设备支持的各个功能组合所需要的唤醒时间。The following is an introduction based on the capability information of the terminal device, in which the network device determines the wake-up time required for the terminal device to execute each function combination supported by the terminal device after waking up from the first sleep mode.
如上述步骤401中的实现方式二,该能力信息包括终端设备从第一睡眠模式唤醒后支持的一个或多个功能组合。As in the second implementation in step 401 above, the capability information includes one or more function combinations supported by the terminal device after waking up from the first sleep mode.
第一种可能的实现方式中,该能力信息包括该一个或多个功能组合中每个功能组合对应的唤醒数值。In a first possible implementation manner, the capability information includes an arousal value corresponding to each function combination in the one or more function combinations.
第二种可能的实现方式中,通信协议中预定义或预配置该一个或多个功能组合中每个功能组合对应的唤醒数值。In a second possible implementation manner, the wake-up value corresponding to each function combination in the one or more function combinations is predefined or preconfigured in the communication protocol.

For example, the network device uses the sum of the wake-up values corresponding to each function in at least one function included in a function combination as the wake-up value corresponding to the function combination. Optionally, the capability information also includes one or more corresponding relationships. For the one or more corresponding relationships, please refer to the related introduction mentioned above. Alternatively, the one or more corresponding relationships are predefined or preconfigured by the communication protocol, which is not specifically limited in this application.
