Description

终端的省电方法、省电装置、信息的发送方法及装置、存储介质和电子装置
本申请要求在2019年08月15日提交中国专利局、申请号为201910755353.5的中国专利申请的优先权,该申请的全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本公开涉及通信领域,例如涉及一种终端的省电方法、省电装置、信息的发送方法及装置、存储介质和电子装置。
背景技术
在多载波无线通信系统中,若基站为两个或多个载波配置自调度,则UE需要在所有配置自调度的载波上执行物理下行控制信道的监听(Physical Downlink Control Channel monitoring,PDCCH monitoring)以及信道测量,以备随时进行数据接收/发送。
在没有业务传输或业务量稀疏情况下,辅小区(Secondary Cell,SCell)上持续密集的PDCCH监听而没有数据调度的情况(即,PDCCH-Only)将会产生很多不必要的功耗。相关技术中的协议中,可通过媒体接入控制的控制元素(Media Access Control Control Element,MAC CE)指示SCell的激活或者去激活来降低终端的功耗,其中,UE在去激活的SCell上不进行PDCCH monitoring、信道测量以及数据接收等操作。
例如,相关技术中,5G新空口(NR,New Radio Access Technology)通信系统中,SCell具有激活态和去激活态两种状态,如果配置了一个SCell或多个SCells,则UE可以通过接收基站发送的SCell Activation/Deactivation MAC CE来实现对配置的SCells的激活或去激活,且基站还可以给每一个激活的SCell(除了配置有物理上行控制信道(Physical Uplink Control Channel,PUCCH)的SCell)配置一个sCellDeactivationTimer,当该sCellDeactivationTimer过期时,该Timer所关联的SCell去激活。
通过MAC CE进行SCell的激活/去激活会带来较大的时延问题,且频繁的激活/去激活又会带来大量不必要的功耗,使用该方案并不能达到很好地降低终端功耗的效果。

以下结合具体场景对本发明实施例进行解释说明。
不连续接收(DRX;Discontinuous Receiving)是指UE不用连续地接收基站发射的信号或/和信道。基站可以给各个UE配置DRX周期和偏移。在一个DRX周期内,UE需在DRX活动时间(DRX-ON)接收基站发射的信号或/和信道,在DRX不活动时间(DRX-OFF)则不需要接收。
在载波聚合(CA;Carrier Aggregation)场景下,一个UE只有一个MAC实体,因此,所有的Cell共用一个DRX配置。在双连接(DC;Dual Connection)场景下,主小区组(MCG,Master Cell Group)和辅小区组(SCG,Secondary Cell Group)分别对应一个MAC实体,每个Cell组共用一个DRX配置。即,当一个激活的Cell上有数据调度,且激活drx-InactivityTimer时,同一Cell组内所有激活的Cell上PDCCH监听时间都将延长。
需要说明的是,以下实施例中的“休眠状态”、“省电状态”、“非省电状态”、“正常状态”只是列举了几种不同的状态类型,这几种状态各有特性,所对应的功耗各有区别,在不同的情形下,均可以理解为是上述的实施例中的“省电的状态”。例如,当载波上无数据传输时,载波从当前的“非省电状态”切换至“省电状态”,或者,载波从当前的“省电状态”切换至“休眠状态”均可以理解为是载波从当前状态切换到了“省电的状态”;又如,当载波上有数据传输时,载波从当前的“省电状态”切换至“非省电状态”,或者,载波从当前的“休眠状态”切换至“省电状态”均可以理解为是载波从当前状态切换到了“省电的状态”;例如,在有数据调度需求时,使用数据传输速率较大的“非省电状态”可以快速调度数据,相比于使用“省电状态”进行更长时间的数据调度而言,功耗反而会更少。
本发明实施例提供的省电方法可以是:接收省电信号/信道;对服务小区(即载波)进行操作。对服务小区进行操作可以是对服务小区上的带宽部分(Bandwidth part,BWP)进行BWP切换或者进行BWP状态转换。
在一个实施方式中,当UE成功检测到省电信号/信道时,UE从当前BWP切换到非省电BWP上。
在一个实施方式中,该当前BWP为省电BWP;该省电BWP具有一定的省电特性;该非省电BWP为配置了跨时隙调度的BWP;该省电BWP为具有最大PDCCH监视周期的BWP。
在一个实施方式中,该当前BWP为非省电BWP;该非省电BWP为配置了同时隙调度的BWP;该非省电BWP为具有最小PDCCH监视周期的BWP。在一个实施方式中,该省电信号/信道是UE在PCell上检测到的。该省电信号/信道还可以是UE在SCell上检测到的。
在一个实施方式中,UE根据省电信号/信道来进行BWP切换;UE根据省电信号/信道来进行BWP状态转换。
在一个实施方式中,SCell上的BWP可以具有多种状态;例如Active state、Inactive state和dormant state;其中,BWP dormant state可以实现dormancy behavior。在一个实施方式中,BWP状态切换时延为n个symbols;其中,n与子载波间隔相关。
在一个实施方式中,基站可以与指定的载波具有相同的操作;该相同的操作可以是:当一个服务小区从当前激活的BWP状态从BWP dormant state切换至BWP激活状态时,另一个服务小区也从BWP dormant state切换至BWP激活状态。
在一个实施方式中,根据省电信号/信道来在服务小区上进行搜索空间的监视。
在一个实施方式中,BWP切换包括:UE对当前激活BWP为dormant BWP的指定载波执行BWP切换操作;所述BWP切换操作包括从dormant BWP切换至省电BWP。所述BWP切换操作包括从dormant BWP切换至正常BWP。所述BWP切换还可以包括:UE从dormant BWP切换至省电BWP时,需要执行预窗操作;UE从dormant BWP切换至省电BWP时,需要报告CSI;UE从dormant BWP切换至正常BWP时,需要执行预窗操作;UE从dormant BWP切换至正常BWP时,需要报告CSI;所述正常BWP指可正常进行PDCCH monitoring和数据接收的BWP。
在一个实施方式中,所述BWP切换包括:UE从省电BWP切换至正常BWP时,需要执行预窗操作;UE从省电BWP切换至正常BWP时,需要报告CSI。
在一个实施方式中,当UE成功检测到省电信号/信道时,UE从BWP dormant state切换至BWP active state。
在一个实施方式中,当UE从dormant state切换至active state时,需要执行预窗操作;当UE从dormant state切换至active state时,需要报告CSI。
在一个实施方式中,UE根据省电信号/信道的比特指示来进行操作;所述操作包括对服务小区的操作和/或对BWP的操作;例如SCell的状态变更;BWP切换;SCell是否进行正常的PDCCH monitoring。
省电信号/信道中可以设置n个比特,用于触发UE在辅载波上的操作,例如可以指示SCell在接下来到达的DRX-ON duration切换至/保持dormancy behavior;或者,SCell在接下来到达的DRX-ON duration正常进行PDCCH monitoring准备进行数据接收;或者,SCell跳过即将到来的DRX-ON duration。
在一个实施方式中,省电信号/信道重用载波指示比特域来指示UE的操作;例如,可以指示UE对SCell在接下来到达的DRX-ON duration切换至/保持dormancy behavior;该dormancy behavior可通过将BWP切换至dormant BWP实现;该dormancy behavior可通过将BWP从active state切换至dormant state实现。
在一个实施方式中,UE根据定时器或特定的时间长度来对服务小区进行操作;或者,UE根据定时器或特定的时间长度来对SCell进行操作;或者,UE根据定时器或特定的时间长度来对BWP进行操作。
在一个实施方式中,UE对于在DRX-ON duration(或DRX活动时间)的一段时间内未得到调度的SCell执行省电操作;例如,可以是从当前激活的BWP切换到default BWP;或者,从当前激活的BWP切换到initial BWP;或者,从当前激活的BWP切换到dormant BWP;从当前的BWP active state切换到BWP dormant state。
在一个实施方式中,两个或多个载波上的BWP之间可以具有绑定关系。该绑定关系包括:一个服务小区上的BWP切换会引起部分服务小区上BWP切换;或者,一个服务小区上的特定BWP切换会引起部分服务小区上特定BWP切换;例如,当一个载波切换到具有最大传输速率的BWP时,另一个载波也切换到具有最大传输速率的BWP;又如,当一个载波切换到低功耗BWP时,另一个载波也切换到低功耗BWP;需要说明的是,当一个载波切换到具有最大传输速率的BWP时,另一个载波可以不切换BWP,但重新激活bwp-InactivityTimer;或者,当一个载波切换到低功耗BWP时,另一个载波可以不切换BWP,但重新激活bwp-InactivityTimer。
在一个实施方式中,UE根据定时器来进行BWP的状态转换;例如,通过定时器来使得BWP active state、BWP dormant state和default/initial BWP之间相互切换。例如,当bwpDormancyTimer到期时,当前激活BWP从active state切换至dormant state。
在一个实施方式中,UE根据省电信号/信道来监视搜索空间。例如,接收到省电信号/信道之后,UE仅在共享搜索空间上执行PDCCH monitoring;或者,接收到省电信号/信道之后,UE在辅载波上执行自调度的搜索空间监视;或者,接收到省电信号/信道之后,UE在辅载波上执行PDCCH monitoring;或者,接 收到省电信号/信道之后,UE在辅载波上执行自调度的PDCCH monitoring。
在一个实施方式中,UE根据省电信号/信道的比特域指示来监视搜索空间;UE根据MAC CE或RRC信令或Timer来监视搜索空间。该搜索空间的监视可以是:接收到省电信号/信道的比特域之后,UE只在共享空间上搜索PDCCH;或者,接收到MAC CE之后,UE只在共享空间上搜索PDCCH;或者,接收到RRC信令之后,UE只在共享空间上搜索PDCCH;或者,Timer过期之后,UE只在共享空间上搜索PDCCH。
可选实施方式1
该实施例主要描述的是,用户设备(User Equipment,简称UE)如何根据基站发送的省电信号/信道来切换BWP。所述省电信号/信道可以是具有唤醒功能的信号/信道,如称为WUS。WUS,即Wake Up Signal的简称。
基站侧:
基站为UE配置DRX。
基站给UE的主载波(PCell,Primary Cell;主小区)发省电信号/信道。所述省电信号/信道可以是承载在PDCCH上的具有唤醒功能的信号,如WUS-PDCCH。该唤醒信号出现在不连续接收的醒着时间(DRX-ON)之前,如果UE检测到WUS-PDCCH,则UE在下一个DRX-ON唤醒,执行PDCCH monitoring,准备接收或发送数据;如果未成功检测到,则UE跳过下一个(或多个)DRX-ON,保持DRX-OFF状态。
基站为PCell配置省电BWP(指定某一bwp-Id对应的BWP为省电BWP)。所述省电BWP具有某一种或多种省电特性。可选的,该省电BWP具有小的带宽(在PCell上所配BWP中带宽最小)。可选的,该省电BWP具有少的MIMO层数(在PCell上所配BWP中MIMO层数最少)。可选的,该省电BWP具有大的PDCCH monitoring周期(在PCell上所配BWP中PDCCH monitoring周期最大)。可选的,该省电BWP配置cross-slot scheduling(体现在相关参数K0,K1,K2和非周期信道状态信息参考信号(Aperiodic Channel State Information Reference Signal,A-CSI-RS)triggering offset设置为大于0的数)。
终端侧:
UE在PCell上的outside active time接收由基站发送的省电信号/信道。当UE成功检测到省电信号/信道时,UE将进行一定的操作。所述操作包括:接收基站发射的参考信号(如,信道状态信息参考信号(Channel State Information Reference Signal,CSI-RS)、发送CSI报告、发送一定的信号/信道、进行BWP 切换等。主要如下。
若PCell上成功检测到省电信号/信道,则,可选的,UE在PCell上即将到来的DRX-ON之前或在DRX-ON早期的一段时间执行预窗操作(包括,UE接收基站发射的CSI-RS、UE发送CSI报告、UE发射探测参考信号(Sounding Reference Signal,SRS))。在所述预窗这一段时间内,用户设备(UE)需要做好接收基站发射的数据或向基站发射数据的准备(即,UE准备接收PDSCH,发送PUSCH)。

可选实施方式6
该实施例主要描述对各个服务小区上的载波进行BWP捆绑:一个服务小区上的BWP切换会引起BWP切换或保持当前BWP,例如,一个服务小区上的BWP切换或者保持会引起与该BWP具有绑定关系的BWP的同步切换或者保持。
基站为UE配置多个载波。
基站为指定载波建立绑定关系。可选的,所述指定载波为主载波和所有辅载波。可选的,所述指定载波为主载波和部分辅载波。所述绑定关系表现为:SpCell(包含PCell和PSCell)上切换BWP时,隐式的指示具有绑定关系的辅载波也切换BWP。
基站按照省电效果对各个载波上所配置的BWP进行排序,每个BWP对应一个省电级别。如:一级为最省电级别,二级次之,以此类推。可选的,BWP的省电级别判定方法为:根据带宽和MIMO层数判断,具有最小带宽和最少MIMO层数的BWP省电级别最高。
SpCell上BWP切换时,隐式的指示SCells上的BWP切换,且切换的目标BWP从BWP候选集中选择。BWP的候选集生成方法为:SCell上的BWP省电级别不低于PCell上BWP的省电级别。需要说明的是,可以认为数据会优先在PCell上传输,当PCell在省电BWP时,SCell也应该在省电BWP上。
UE根据省电级别来进行BWP切换或保持当前的BWP。可选的,候选BWP集和切换的目标BWP的选择方法为:BWP候选集中的BWP个数不超过两个,可以避免SCell始终处于最省电BWP上。且选择符合候选集生成条件的省电级别最低的两个BWP组成BWP候选集。优先选择省电级别高的BWP为目标BWP。且附加条件,SpCell处于省电级别最低的BWP时,SCell不得处于省电级别最高的BWP上。
举例如下:
当前UE共有三个激活的载波,分别为PCell、SCell1和SCell2。其中,PCell 上共有3个BWP,按照省电级别从高到低分别为BWP0,BWP1,BWP2。SCell1上有四个BWP,按照省电级别从高到低分别为BWP0,BWP1,BWP2,BWP3。SCell2上有两个BWP,按照省电级别从高到低分别为BWP0,BWP1。
当PCell上切换到具有最高省电级别的BWP0时,对应SCell1和SCell2上的BWP候选集都只包含一个元素{BWP0}。因此SCell1和SCell2均切换到具有最高省电级别的BWP0上。如果SCell上激活的BWP本身就是BWP0,则重新激活bwp-InactivityTimer。当PCell上激活BWP由BWP0切换到BWP2时,SCell1上的BWP候选集为{BWP1,BWP2},SCell2上的BWP候选集为{BWP0,BWP1}。按照“优先选择省电级别高的BWP,且PCell处于省电级别最低的BWP时,SCell不得处于省电级别最高的BWP”原则,SCell1切换至BWP1,SCell2切换至BWP1。当PCell上激活BWP由BWP2切换到BWP1时,对应SCell1上和SCell2上的BWP候选集均为{BWP0,BWP1},SCell上优先选择省电级别高的BWP,因此SCell1上和SCell2均激活BWP0。
UE可根据SpCell的DCI来进行BWP切换或保持当前的BWP。可选的,候选BWP集和目标BWP的选择方法为:BWP候选集元素为所有符合候选集生成条件的BWP。优先选择相同省电级别的BWP为目标BWP。且当SCell上激活的BWP本身处于候选集的时候,不进行BWP切换。可以减少BWP切换次数,避免频繁的切换造成的时延和不必要的功耗。当SCell上没有相同省电级别的BWP时,优先切换到具有相邻省电级别的BWP上。
举例如下:
当前UE共有三个激活的载波,分别为PCell、SCell1和SCell2。其中,PCell上共有3个BWP,按照省电级别从高到低分别为BWP0,BWP1,BWP2。SCell1上有四个BWP,按照省电级别从高到低分别为BWP0,BWP1,BWP2,BWP3。SCell2上有两个BWP,按照省电级别从高到低分别为BWP0,BWP1。
当PCell上切换到具有最高省电级别的BWP0时,对应SCell1和SCell2上的BWP候选集都只包含一个元素{BWP0}。因此SCell1和SCell2均切换到具有最高省电级别的BWP0上。当PCell切换到BWP1时,对应SCell1上的BWP候选集均为{BWP0,BWP1}。按照优先切换原则,SCell1和SCell2均切换至BWP1。当PCell切换到BWP2时,对应SCell1上的BWP候选集为{BWP0,BWP1,BWP2},SCell2上的BWP候选集为{BWP0,BWP1},按照优先切换原则,SCell1和SCell2均保持在BWP1不做切换,并激活bwp-InactivityTimer。
如果SpCell的PDCCH指示了一个切换BWP的DCI,使得SCell进行BWP切换,且在切换后的BWP上执行PDCCH monitoring,则SCell上开始monitor PDCCH的时间与PCell上接收到指示切换的DCI的时间有一个时间差(offset)。 UE在这个时间差内完成两个动作:一是完成PCell的PDCCH decoding;二是完成SCell上的BWP switching。可选的,UE在该offset期间不执行PDCCH monitoring。可选的,UE在该offset期间不做PDCCH buffer。

UE根据服务小区的BWP的数据传输速率级别来进行BWP选择。可选的,候选BWP集和切换的目标BWP的选择方法为:限制BWP候选集BWP个数不超过两个,可以避免SCell始终处于最省电BWP上。
且选择符合条件的数据传输速率最高的两个BWP组成BWP候选集。切换时,优先选择数据传输速率级别低的BWP为目标BWP。且,PCell处于数据传输速率级别最高的BWP时,SCell不得处于数据传输速率级别最低的BWP上。
可选的,候选BWP集和切换的目标BWP的选择方法为:BWP候选集元素为所有符合候选集生成条件的BWP。优先选择相同数据传输速率级别的BWP为目标BWP。当SCell上激活的BWP本身处于候选集的时候,可以不进行BWP切换(即,保持当前的BWP)。减少BWP切换次数,避免频繁的切换造成的时延和不必要的功耗。
当SCell上没有相同数据传输速率级别的BWP时,优先切换到具有相邻数据传输速率级别的BWP上。
