[0077] It should be understood that although the terms first, second, third, etc. may be used to describe various information in embodiments of the present invention, these information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other.

Depending on the context, the word "if" as used herein may be interpreted as "at the time of" or "when" or "in response to determining".

[0078] The execution subjects involved in the embodiments of the present invention include but are not limited to: wireless communication networks, especially Wi-Fi networks such as IEEE802.11a / b / g / n / ac standards, and network devices under the IEEE802.11be standard in the next-generation Wi-Fi network, wherein the network devices include but are not limited to: wireless (AP, Access Point) access point devices such as Wi-Fi routers, wireless stations (STA, Station), user terminals, user nodes, mobile terminals or tablet computers, etc.

[0079] An application scenario of the embodiment of the present invention is that in the existing IEEE802.11 standard, the shortest time for a device to receive an ACK is a short inter-frame space (SIFS), and SIFS is 10us in the 2.4GHz band and 16us in the 5GHz band. Due to the processing speed of the data frame receiving end, the data frame receiving end may not be able to complete the data frame decoding within 10us or 16us, and send the reception feedback information of the data frame to the data frame sending end.

[0080] like Figure 1 As shown, this exemplary embodiment provides a method for configuring transmission of received feedback information. The method for configuring transmission of received feedback information can be applied to a data frame transmitting end of wireless communication. The method includes:

[0081] Step 101: Generate a request to send frame for transmitting data frames using multiple transmission frequency bands, wherein the request to send frame includes: feedback resource information, wherein the feedback resource information is used to indicate a transmission resource for a data frame receiving end to transmit receiving feedback information;

[0082] Step 102: Send the request to send frame.

[0083] Here, the wireless communication may be Wi-Fi communication using standards such as IEEE802.11be; the data frame transmitter and the data frame receiver may be wireless stations (STAs) in Wi-Fi communication, etc. The data frame may be a data frame transmitted in each of a plurality of transmission frequency bands. The data frame may be a Media Access Control Protocol Data Unit (MPDU) or an Aggregation Media Access Control Protocol Data Unit (A-MPDU), etc.

[0084] The multiple transmission frequency bands may be multiple Wi-Fi operating frequency bands, such as 2.4 GHz, 5.8 GHz, and 6-7 GHz, etc., or may be frequency ranges of bandwidths occupied by transmission frequency bands. The frequency ranges of bandwidths occupied by each transmission frequency band may belong to the same Wi-Fi operating frequency band or may belong to different Wi-Fi operating frequency bands.

[0085] The data frame is sent by the data frame sending end using multiple transmission frequency bands and received by the data frame receiving end. The data frame receiving end can be a wireless station in Wi-Fi communication, etc. Here, the frequency coverage ranges of the multiple transmission frequency bands are different, and the multiple transmission frequency bands can transmit data frames at the same time, thereby increasing the transmission rate of the data frame and improving the data frame transmission efficiency.

[0086] The reception feedback information may be an acknowledgment (ACK) or a non-acknowledgment (NACK) for feeding back the reception status of a data frame, or may be a block acknowledgment (Block ACK) information for feeding back the reception status of consecutive data frames.

[0087] Before data transmission, the data frame sender and the data frame receiver will first handshake according to the transmission protocol. The handshake process may include: the data frame sender sends a request to send frame (RTS), indicating that the data frame sender wants to send a data frame to the data frame receiver. After receiving the request to send frame, the data frame receiver sends a clear to send frame (CTS) to the data frame sender.

[0088] Here, feedback resource information may be carried in the request to send frame to indicate to the data frame receiving end the transmission resource for transmitting the received feedback information. The transmission resource may be a time domain resource and / or frequency domain resource for transmitting the received feedback information, and the transmission resource information may also be a time domain resource and / or time-frequency resource in a frequency band in the frequency band of the transmitted data frame. Exemplarily, the time domain resource indicated by the feedback resource information may be a time period after the data frame receiving end receives the data frame and completes processing such as demodulation and decoding. In this way, the situation where the data frame receiving end does not complete the data frame decoding when sending the received feedback information can be reduced.

[0089] After receiving the feedback resource information carried in the request to send frame, the data frame receiving end receives the data frame, performs demodulation and decoding on the data frame, determines the reception status of the data frame, and uses the transmission resources indicated by the feedback resource information to send reception feedback information to the data frame sending end.

[0090] In this way, the transmission resource for transmitting the receiving feedback information is indicated by the feedback resource information. On the one hand, the sender can adjust the transmission resource according to the actual situation by sending the request to send frame, thereby improving the flexibility of the transmission resource configuration of the receiving feedback information. On the other hand, the receiving feedback information is no longer sent at a fixed time and / or frequency band, which can reduce the situation where the data frame is not decoded when sending the receiving feedback information, thereby improving the accuracy of the receiving feedback information.

[0091] In one embodiment, the feedback resource information includes at least one of the following: feedback frequency band information, used to indicate the feedback transmission frequency band in which the data frame receiving end transmits the received feedback information; feedback time interval information, used to indicate the feedback time interval in which the data frame receiving end transmits the received feedback information.

[0092] Here, the feedback transmission frequency band may be one of the multiple transmission frequency bands. The feedback transmission frequency band may be used to transmit the received feedback information after the data frame is transmitted. The feedback transmission frequency band may be one of the multiple transmission frequency bands. The feedback transmission frequency band may be used to transmit the received feedback information after the data frame is transmitted.

[0093] The feedback time interval may be a time period after the data frame receiving end completes data frame decoding. In this way, the reception feedback information may be sent after the data frame reception status is determined, thereby reducing the probability of errors in the reception feedback information.

[0094] In one embodiment, the feedback time interval for transmitting the reception feedback information includes: a point coordination function interframe space duration (PIFS) to 100 milliseconds after the data frame is sent.

[0095] The data frame may include a unicast data frame and a continuous data frame. When the data frame is a continuous data frame, the interval between one point coordination function frame after the data frame is sent may be up to 100 milliseconds, and the interval between one point coordination function frame after the last sub-data frame of the continuous data frame is sent may be up to 100 milliseconds.

[0096] The short inter-frame space (SIFS) is used to space each frame in a data transmission, such as an interval data frame, an ACK frame, etc. In the related art, only one SIFC is spaced between the data frame and the receiving feedback information. The data frame receiving end does not have enough time to complete the parsing of the data frame, and thus cannot send the receiving feedback information that can reflect the actual receiving status of the data frame. Compared with the short inter-frame space, Wi-Fi communication also includes a point coordination function inter-frame space, which is usually used for wireless access nodes (APs) with a point coordination function (PCF Point coordination function). APs with PCF usually access the channel with an interval of one point coordination function inter-frame space. The PIFS duration is the SIFS duration plus a slot time. Here, sending the receiving feedback information after a point coordination function inter-frame space after the data frame can provide the data frame receiving end with sufficient time for decoding and other processing, so that the data frame receiving end can send the receiving feedback information that reflects the actual receiving status of the data frame. Therefore, sending and receiving feedback information within the time period of 100 milliseconds after the data frame is sent can reduce the probability of receiving feedback information errors due to the failure to complete decoding of the data frame. The maximum time limit of 100 milliseconds can provide an upper limit for the feedback time and improve the efficiency of receiving feedback information feedback.

[0097] In one embodiment, the method further includes: receiving the reception feedback information sent by the data frame receiving end according to the feedback resource information.

[0098] The receiving, according to the feedback resource information, the receiving feedback information sent by the data frame receiving end comprises:

[0099] The reception feedback information sent by the data frame receiving end is received by utilizing the feedback transmission resources indicated by the feedback resource information.

[0100] After receiving the feedback resource information carried in the request to send frame, the data frame receiving end receives the data frame, performs demodulation, decoding, etc. on the data frame, determines the reception status of the data frame, and uses the transmission resources indicated by the feedback resource information to send reception feedback information to the data frame sending end.

[0101] In one embodiment, before sending the request to send frame, the method further includes: determining the feedback transmission frequency band for transmitting the reception feedback information according to a load condition of each of the transmission frequency bands.

[0102] When multiple transmission frequency bands are used to transmit data frames, the loads of the various transmission frequency bands may be different. For example, the transmission with a smaller load may be used to receive the feedback information.

[0103] According to the division of the sending and receiving time of the data frame transmitted by each transmission frequency band, the transmission of the data frame can be divided into synchronous transmission and asynchronous transmission. Figure 2a As shown in the figure, the transmission time and arrival time of the data frame at the receiving end of each transmission frequency band are the same. Figure 2b to Figure 2d As shown, there are three cases of asynchronous transmission:

[0104] The first type: Figure 2b As shown, the sending time of the data frames in each transmission frequency band is the same, but the time when they arrive at the receiving end is different.

[0105] The second type: Figure 2c As shown, the sending time of the data frames in each transmission frequency band is different, and the time when they arrive at the receiving end is also different.

[0106] The third type: Figure 2d As shown, the transmission time of the data frame of each transmission frequency band is different, and the time of arriving at the receiving end is the same. The time when the data frame arrives at the receiving end can be determined by the transmitting end according to the transmission time of the data frame and the length of the data frame.

[0107] In one embodiment, determining the feedback transmission frequency band for transmitting the reception feedback information according to the load condition of each transmission frequency band includes at least one of the following:

[0108] Determining the transmission frequency band with the lowest load value as the feedback transmission frequency band;

[0109] The transmission frequency band with the least number of wireless stations established with connection is determined as the feedback transmission frequency band.

[0110] Each transmission frequency band has a load value, and the load of the transmission frequency band can be determined by reading the load value. Since the transmission of reception feedback information requires a certain amount of resources, the reception feedback information can be transmitted in the transmission frequency band with the lowest load. In this way, the transmission frequency band with low load can be fully utilized. Compared with sending data in the transmission frequency band with high load, on the one hand, there is no need for load queuing and timely transmission; on the other hand, the transmission frequency with low load allows a lower bit rate, which can ensure the transmission quality through the low bit rate.

[0111] The more wireless sites that establish associated connections with the transmission frequency band, the greater the probability that the transmission frequency band will have a higher load; the fewer wireless sites that establish associated connections with the transmission frequency band, the smaller the probability that the transmission frequency band will have a higher load; therefore, the reception feedback information can be transmitted in the transmission frequency band with the least number of associated wireless sites, thereby increasing the probability of transmitting the reception feedback information in the low-load transmission frequency band and improving the utilization efficiency of the transmission frequency band.

[0112] In one embodiment, the method further includes: transmitting the data frame using the multiple transmission frequency bands; the duration indicated by the duration field contained in the data frame includes: the transmission duration of the data frame and does not include the transmission duration of receiving feedback information.

[0113] Here, the data frame transmitter may use multiple transmission frequency bands to send the data frame. The data frame receiver may receive the data frame in multiple transmission frequency bands. Since the received feedback information is transmitted using the feedback resource specified in the request to send frame, the duration field (Duration) of the data frame may not include the transmission duration of the received feedback information.

[0114] In one embodiment, when the data frame is a unicast data frame, the transmission duration of the data frame includes: the transmission duration of a single unicast data frame;

[0115] When the data frame is a continuous data frame, the transmission duration of the data frame includes: the sum of the transmission durations of n sub-data frames contained in the continuous data frame and n-1 short inter-frame intervals, wherein n is a positive integer equal to or greater than 2, and wherein the short inter-frame interval is located between two adjacent sub-data frames.

[0116] The data frame may include a unicast data frame and a continuous data frame. Here, unicast data frame transmission refers to the form of encapsulating data in a data frame for transmission, and a unicast data frame has a reception feedback information. Continuous data frame transmission refers to the form of encapsulating data in multiple sub-data frames and transmitting them in sequence, and continuous data frames may be received and fed back in the form of block reception feedback information (Block ACK), and the block reception feedback information may include multiple feedback information, each feedback information is used to indicate the reception status of each sub-data frame.

[0117] When the data frame is a unicast data frame, the data frame transmission duration indicated by the duration field may be the transmission duration of the unicast data frame. When the data frame is a continuous data frame, the data frame transmission duration indicated by the duration field may be the sum of the transmission duration of each sub-data frame in the continuous data frame and the short inter-frame interval between each sub-data frame.

[0118] When the data frames are continuous data frames, block reception feedback information may be used to provide feedback on the reception status of the continuous data frames.

[0119] like Figure 3 As shown, this exemplary embodiment provides a method for configuring transmission of received feedback information. The method for configuring transmission of received feedback information can be applied to a data frame receiving end of wireless communication. The method includes:

[0120] Step 301: receiving a request to send a frame for transmitting a data frame using multiple transmission frequency bands, wherein the request to send the frame includes: feedback resource information, wherein the feedback resource information is used to indicate a transmission resource for a data frame receiving end to transmit receiving feedback information;

[0121] Step 302: Utilize the transmission resources to send the reception feedback information.

[0122] Here, the wireless communication may be Wi-Fi communication using standards such as IEEE802.11be; the data frame transmitter and the data frame receiver may be STAs in Wi-Fi communication, etc. The data frame may be a data frame transmitted in each of a plurality of transmission frequency bands, respectively. The data frame may be an MPDU or an AMPDU, etc.

[0123] The multiple transmission frequency bands may be multiple Wi-Fi operating frequency bands, such as 2.4 GHz, 5.8 GHz, and 6-7 GHz, etc., or may be frequency ranges of bandwidths occupied by transmission frequency bands. The frequency ranges of bandwidths occupied by each transmission frequency band may belong to the same Wi-Fi operating frequency band or may belong to different Wi-Fi operating frequency bands.

[0124] The data frame is sent by the data frame sending end using multiple transmission frequency bands and received by the data frame receiving end. The data frame receiving end can be a wireless station in Wi-Fi communication, etc. Here, the frequency coverage ranges of the multiple transmission frequency bands are different, and the multiple transmission frequency bands can transmit data frames at the same time, thereby increasing the transmission rate of the data frame and improving the data frame transmission efficiency.

[0125] The reception feedback information may be ACK or NACK for feeding back the reception status of a data frame, or may be Block ACK information for feeding back the reception status of consecutive data frames.

[0126] Before data transmission, the data frame sender and the data frame receiver will first handshake according to the transmission protocol. The handshake process may include: the data frame sender sends a request to send frame (RTS), indicating that the data frame sender wants to send a data frame to the data frame receiver. After receiving the request to send frame, the data frame receiver sends a clear to send frame (CTS) to the data frame sender.

[0127] Here, feedback resource information may be carried in the request to send frame to indicate to the data frame receiving end the transmission resource for transmitting the reception feedback information. The transmission resource may be a time domain resource and / or a frequency domain resource for transmitting the reception feedback information. Exemplarily, the time domain resource indicated by the feedback resource information may be a time period after the data frame receiving end receives the data frame and completes processing such as demodulation and decoding. In this way, the situation where the data frame receiving end does not complete the data frame decoding when sending the reception feedback information can be reduced.

[0128] After receiving the feedback resource information carried in the request to send frame, the data frame receiving end receives the data frame, performs demodulation and decoding on the data frame, determines the reception status of the data frame, and uses the transmission resources indicated by the feedback resource information to send reception feedback information to the data frame sending end.

[0129] In this way, the transmission resource for transmitting the receiving feedback information is indicated by the feedback resource information. On the one hand, the sender can adjust the transmission resource according to the actual situation by sending the request to send frame, thereby improving the flexibility of the transmission resource configuration of the receiving feedback information. On the other hand, the receiving feedback information is no longer sent at a fixed time and / or frequency band, which can reduce the situation where the data frame is not decoded when sending the receiving feedback information, thereby improving the accuracy of the receiving feedback information.

[0130] In one embodiment, the feedback resource information includes at least one of the following: feedback frequency band information, used to indicate the feedback transmission frequency band in which the data frame receiving end transmits the received feedback information; feedback time interval information, used to indicate the feedback time interval in which the data frame receiving end transmits the received feedback information.

[0131] Here, the feedback transmission frequency band may be one of the multiple transmission frequency bands. The feedback transmission frequency band may be used to transmit the received feedback information after the data frame is transmitted. The feedback transmission frequency band may be one of the multiple transmission frequency bands. The feedback transmission frequency band may be used to transmit the received feedback information after the data frame is transmitted.

[0132] The feedback time interval may be a time period after the data frame receiving end completes data frame decoding. In this way, the reception feedback information may be sent after the data frame reception status is determined, thereby reducing the probability of errors in the reception feedback information.

[0133] In one embodiment, the feedback time interval for transmitting the reception feedback information includes: a point coordination function inter-frame interval time length of up to 100 milliseconds after the data frame is sent.

[0134] The data frame may include a unicast data frame and a continuous data frame. When the data frame is a continuous data frame, the interval between one point coordination function frame after the data frame is sent may be up to 100 milliseconds, and the interval between one point coordination function frame after the last sub-data frame of the continuous data frame is sent may be up to 100 milliseconds.

[0135] The short inter-frame space (SIFS) is used to space each frame in a data transmission, such as an interval data frame, an ACK frame, etc. In the related art, only one SIFC is spaced between the data frame and the receiving feedback information. The data frame receiving end does not have enough time to complete the parsing of the data frame, and thus cannot send the receiving feedback information that can reflect the actual receiving status of the data frame. Compared with the short inter-frame space, Wi-Fi communication also includes a point coordination function inter-frame space, which is usually used for wireless access nodes (APs) with a point coordination function (PCF Point coordination function). APs with PCF usually access the channel with an interval of one point coordination function inter-frame space. The PIFS duration is the SIFS duration plus a slot time. Here, sending the receiving feedback information after a point coordination function inter-frame space after the data frame can provide the data frame receiving end with sufficient time for decoding and other processing, so that the data frame receiving end can send the receiving feedback information that reflects the actual receiving status of the data frame. Therefore, sending and receiving feedback information within the time period of 100 milliseconds after the data frame is sent can reduce the probability of receiving feedback information errors due to the failure to complete decoding of the data frame. The maximum time limit of 100 milliseconds can provide an upper limit for the feedback time and improve the efficiency of receiving feedback information feedback.

[0136] In one embodiment, the method further includes: receiving the data frame transmitted using the multiple transmission frequency bands; the duration indicated by the duration field contained in the data frame includes: the transmission duration of the data frame and does not include the transmission duration of receiving feedback information.

[0137] Here, the data frame transmitter may use multiple transmission frequency bands to send the data frame. The data frame receiver may receive the data frame in multiple transmission frequency bands. Since the received feedback information is transmitted using the feedback resource specified in the request to send frame, the duration field (Duration) of the data frame may not include the transmission duration of the received feedback information.

[0138] In one embodiment, when the data frame is a unicast data frame, the transmission duration of the data frame includes: the transmission duration of a single unicast data frame;

[0139] When the data frame is a continuous data frame, the transmission duration of the data frame includes: the sum of the transmission durations of n sub-data frames contained in the continuous data frame and n-1 short inter-frame intervals, wherein n is a positive integer equal to or greater than 2, and wherein the short inter-frame interval is located between two adjacent sub-data frames.

[0140] When the data frame is a continuous data frame, the transmission duration of the data frame includes: the sum of the transmission durations of n sub-data frames contained in the continuous data frame and n-1 short inter-frame intervals, wherein n is a positive integer equal to or greater than 2, and wherein the short inter-frame interval is located between two adjacent sub-data frames.

[0141] The data frame may include a unicast data frame and a continuous data frame. Here, unicast data frame transmission refers to the form of encapsulating data in a data frame for transmission, and a unicast data frame has a reception feedback information. Continuous data frame transmission refers to the form of encapsulating data in multiple sub-data frames and transmitting them in sequence, and continuous data frames may be received and fed back in the form of block reception feedback information (Block ACK), and the block reception feedback information may include multiple feedback information, each feedback information is used to indicate the reception status of each sub-data frame.

[0142] When the data frame is a unicast data frame, the data frame transmission duration indicated by the duration field may be the transmission duration of the unicast data frame. When the data frame is a continuous data frame, the data frame transmission duration indicated by the duration field may be the sum of the transmission duration of each sub-data frame in the continuous data frame and the short inter-frame interval between each sub-data frame.

[0143] When the data frames are continuous data frames, block reception feedback information may be used to provide feedback on the reception status of the continuous data frames.

[0144] A specific example is provided below in combination with any of the above embodiments:

[0145] 1. Setting of the data frame duration field.

[0146] According to the division of the sending and receiving time of the data frame transmitted by each transmission connection, the transmission of the data frame can be divided into synchronous transmission and asynchronous transmission.

[0147] For example, synchronous transmission can be as follows Figure 2a As shown, the sending time of the data frame of each transmission connection and the time when it arrives at the receiving end are the same.

[0148] Asynchronous transmission can be Figure 2b to Figure 2d As shown, there are three cases of asynchronous transmission:

[0149] The first type: Figure 2bAs shown, the sending time of each transmission connection data frame is the same, but the time when it arrives at the receiving end is different.

[0150] The second type: Figure 2c As shown, the sending time of each transmission connection data frame is different, and the time when it arrives at the receiving end is also different.

[0151] The third type: Figure 2d As shown, the sending time of each transmission connection data frame is different, but the time of arriving at the receiving end is the same.

[0152] Regardless of whether it is synchronous or asynchronous, the duration field of the data frame only includes its own transmission duration, and does not include the duration of receiving the ACK frame: 1. For unicast data frames, the duration is set to: data frame length; 2. For continuous data frames, the duration is set to: n*sub-data frame length + (n-1)*SIFS; where n is the number of sub-data frames in the continuous data frame.

[0153] 2. The ACK frame frequency band and receiving interval are determined.

[0154] like Figure 4 As shown in the schematic diagram of the interaction between the data frame transmitter and the data frame receiver, the data frame transmitter sends a multi-link (ML, Multi-Link) RTS frame to the data frame receiver, and carries the frequency band and listening interval of the reception feedback information / block reception feedback information ACK / BA in the ML-RTS. The specific listening interval is 1ms-100ms after the media access control protocol data frame / aggregate media access control protocol data frame (MPDU / A-MPDU) is sent. The data frame receiver returns CTS to agree to receive the data frame. The data frame transmitter sends the data frame to the data frame receiver. The data frame receiver sends the reception feedback information to the data frame transmitter in the frequency band and listening interval indicated by the ML-RTS.

[0155] The data frame sender can decide the frequency band to receive the ACK frame based on the busyness of the received frequency band communication.
