[0051] In embodiments of the present invention, the term "and / or" describes the association relationship between associated objects, indicating that three possible relationships exist. For example, "A and / or B" can represent three situations: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone. The character " / " generally indicates that the associated objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0052] In the embodiments of the present application, the term "plurality" refers to two or more than two, and other quantifiers are similar.

[0053] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0054] The embodiments of the present application provide a resource configuration method, apparatus, device, and storage medium to meet the needs of resource allocation in a multi-connection scenario.

[0055] The resource method of the embodiment of the present application is applied on the terminal device side. The terminal device involved in the embodiment of the present application can be a device that provides voice and / or data connectivity to a user, a handheld device with wireless connection function, or other processing device connected to a wireless modem. In different systems, the name of the terminal device may also be different. For example, in a 5G system, the terminal device can be called User Equipment (UE). A wireless terminal device can communicate with one or more core networks (CN) via a radio access network (RAN). The wireless terminal device can be a mobile terminal device, such as a mobile phone (or "cellular" phone) and a computer with a mobile terminal device. For example, it can be a portable, pocket-sized, handheld, computer-built-in or vehicle-mounted mobile device that exchanges voice and / or data with a radio access network.

Among them, as Figure 1 As shown, the links involved include: user link (Service link), that is, the wireless link between the terminal and the satellite / high-altitude platform, feeder link (Feeder link), that is, the wireless link between the satellite / high-altitude platform and the gateway station, and inter-satellite link (ISL), that is, the link between satellites / high-altitude platforms.

[0057] In addition, the eye stars mentioned in the above embodiment mainly include several types as shown in Table 1 below:

[0058] Table 1

[0059]

[0060]

[0061] Figure 2 is a flow chart of the resource configuration method according to the first embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0062] Step 201: Determine a first mapping relationship between a first target identifier and a second target identifier.

[0063] In some possible embodiments, the first target identifier includes at least one of the following: a QoS (Quality of Service) parameter identifier, a logical channel identifier, and a bearer identifier.

[0064] In some possible embodiments, the second target identifier includes at least one of the following: a cell type identifier, a cell identifier list. In some embodiments of the present application, the cell type identifier includes at least one of the following: a ground cell, a satellite cell, a low orbit (Low Earth Orbit, LEO) satellite cell, a medium orbit (Medium Orbit Earth Satellite, MEO) satellite cell, a geostationary Earth Orbit (Geostationary Earth Orbit, GEO) satellite cell, a high orbit (Highly Elliptical Orbit, HEO) satellite cell, and an unmanned aircraft (Unmanned Aircraft Systems, UAS) platform cell.

[0065] In different application scenarios, the correspondence between the first target identifier and the second target identifier included in the first mapping relationship includes one or more of the following:

[0066] (1) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a QoS parameter identifier and a cell type identifier. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 2 below. In Table 2, 5QI is a QoS parameter identifier, and terrestrial cells are cell types.

[0067] Table 2

[0068] First target identification Second target identifier 5QI=1,2,3 Ground community 5QI=4,6 Satellite Cell 5QI=5,7 Satellite Cell

[0069] (2) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a QoS parameter identifier and a cell identifier list. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 3 below, where 5QI is a QoS parameter identifier and Cell list is a cell identifier list.

[0070] Table 3

[0071] First target identification Second target identifier 5QI=1,2,3 Cell list 1 {Cell 1, Cell 2} 5QI=4,6 Cell list 2 {Cell 3, Cell 4} 5QI=5,7 Cell list 1 {Cell 1, Cell 2}

[0072] (3) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a logical channel identifier and a cell type identifier. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 4 below. In Table 4, LCID is a logical channel identifier, and terrestrial cell, etc. is a cell type:

[0073] Table 4

[0074]

[0075]

[0076] (4) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a logical channel identifier and a cell identifier list. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 5 below. In Table 5, LCID is a logical channel identifier, and Cell list is a cell identifier list.

[0077] Table 5

[0078] First target identification Second target identifier LCID=1 Cell list 1 {Cell 1, Cell 2} LCID=2 Cell list 2 {Cell 3, Cell 4} LCID=3 Cell list 1 {Cell 1, Cell 2}

[0079] (5) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a bearer identifier and a cell type identifier. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 6 below, where terrestrial cells and the like are cell types:

[0080] Table 6

[0081] First target identification Second target identifier Bearer ID = 1 Ground community Bearer ID = 2 Satellite Cell Bearer ID = 3 Satellite Cell

[0082] (6) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a bearer identifier and a cell identifier list. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 7 below. In Table 7, the cell list is a cell identifier list:

[0083] Table 7

[0084] First target identification Second target identifier Bearer ID = 1 Cell list 1 {Cell 1, Cell 2} Bearer ID = 2 Cell list 2 {Cell 3, Cell 4} Bearer ID = 3 Cell list 1 {Cell 1, Cell 2}

[0085] Step 202: Perform buffer status reporting (BSR) and / or uplink resource allocation according to the first mapping relationship.

[0086] It can be understood that the first mapping relationship includes the first target identifier and the second target identifier required for the multi-connection scenario. Therefore, buffer status reporting BSR (Buffer Status Reporting) or uplink resource allocation can be performed according to the first mapping relationship, or buffer status reporting BSR and uplink resource allocation.

[0087] The following describes how to report the buffer status to the BSR and / or allocate uplink resources according to the first mapping relationship by taking into account a specific scenario. The description is as follows:

[0088] Scenario 1:

[0089] In this scenario, the buffer status reporting BSR and uplink resource allocation are performed according to the first mapping relationship. The first mapping relationship includes the correspondence between the logical channel identifier and the cell type identifier. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 8 below:

[0090] Table 8

[0091] First target identification Second target identifier LCID=1 Ground community LCID=2 Satellite Cell LCID=3 Satellite Cell LCID=4 Ground community

[0092] In this embodiment, referring to Figure 3 For the logical channel identifiers of LCID=1 and LCID=4, the BSR is reported to the terrestrial cell in units of LCG. For the logical channel identifiers of LCID=2 and LCID=3, the BSR is reported to the satellite cell in units of LCG. In addition, when the terminal performs uplink resource allocation, it is also necessary to consider the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier. For example, the logical channel identifiers of LCID=1 and LCID=4 are only allowed to use the uplink resources allocated by the terrestrial cell; the logical channel identifiers of LCID=2 and LCID=3 are only allowed to use the uplink resources allocated by the terrestrial cell.

[0093] Scenario 2:

[0094] In this scenario, a buffer status report BSR and uplink resource allocation are performed according to a first mapping relationship. The first mapping relationship includes a logical channel identifier, and the second target identifier includes a cell identifier list.

[0095] In this example, the cell identifier list may be a list of cell identifiers, for example, referring to Table 9, including one or more cell identifiers that can be used by the logical channel identifier:

[0096] Table 9

[0097] First target identification Second target identifier LCID=1 Cell list 1 {Cell 1, Cell 2} LCID=2 Cell list 2 {Cell 3, Cell 4} LCID=3 Cell list 2 {Cell 1, Cell 2} LCID=4 Cell list 1 {Cell 3, Cell 4}

[0098] In this example, refer to Figure 4For the logical channel identifiers of LCID=1 and LCID=4, their BSRs are reported to the cell corresponding to Cell list 1 in units of LCG. For the logical channel identifiers of LCID=2 and LCID=3, their BSRs are reported to the cell corresponding to Cell list 2 in units of LCG. In addition, when the terminal performs uplink resource allocation, it is necessary to consider the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier. For example, the logical channel identifiers of LCID=1 and LCID=4 are only allowed to use the uplink resources allocated on the cells in Cell list 1; the logical channel identifiers of LCID=2 and LCID=3 are only allowed to use the uplink resources allocated on the cells in Cell list 2.

[0099] Scenario 3:

[0100] In this scenario, the buffer status reporting BSR and uplink resource allocation are performed according to the first mapping relationship. The first target identifier may be a QoS parameter identifier, and the second target identifier may be a cell type identifier.

[0101] In this embodiment, as shown in Table 10, the first target identifier is a QoS parameter identifier, and the second target identifier is a cell type identifier (cell type 1 is a terrestrial cell, and cell type 2 is a satellite cell) is taken as an example.

[0102] Table 10

[0103] First target identification Second target identifier 5QI=1,2,3 Ground community 5QI=4,6 Satellite Cell

[0104] In this example, continue to refer to Figure 3 , the terminal device reports the BSR based on the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier. For the QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=1,2,3, its BSR can be reported to the terrestrial cell, and for the QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=4,6, its BSR can be reported to the satellite cell. In addition, when the terminal performs uplink resource allocation, it is necessary to consider the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier. For example, the QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=1,2,3 only allow the use of uplink resources allocated by the terrestrial cell; the QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=4,6 only allow the use of uplink resources allocated by the terrestrial cell.

[0105] Scenario 4:

[0106] In this scenario, the buffer status reporting BSR and uplink resource allocation are performed according to the first mapping relationship. The first target identifier may be a QoS parameter identifier, and the second target identifier may be a cell identifier list.

[0107] In this embodiment, continue to refer to Figure 4As shown in Table 11, the first target identifier is a QoS parameter identifier and the second target identifier is a cell identifier list as an example.

[0108] Table 11

[0109] First target identification Second target identifier 5QI=1,2,3 Cell list 1 {Cell 1, Cell 2} 5QI=4 Cell list 2 {Cell 3, Cell 4} 5QI=6 Cell list 2 {Cell 1, Cell 2}

[0110] In this example, for QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=1, 2, and 3, the BSR is reported to the cell corresponding to Celllist1 in units of LCG. For QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=4, the BSR is reported to the cell corresponding to Celllist2 in units of LCG. For QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=6, the BSR is reported to the cell corresponding to Celllist2 in units of LCG. In addition, when the terminal performs uplink resource allocation, it is necessary to consider the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier. For example, for QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=1, 2, and 3, only uplink resources allocated on the cells in Celllist1 are allowed to be used; for the logical channel identifier or bearer identifier of the QoS parameter identifier of 5QI=4, only uplink resources allocated on the cells in Celllist2 are allowed to be used.

[0111] Scene 5:

[0112] In this scenario, the buffer status reporting BSR and uplink resource allocation are performed according to the first mapping relationship. The first mapping relationship includes the correspondence between the bearer identifier and the cell type identifier. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 12 below:

[0113] Table 12

[0114] First target identification Second target identifier Bearer ID = 1 Ground community Bearer ID = 2 Satellite Cell Bearer ID = 3 Satellite Cell Bearer ID = 4 Ground community

[0115] In this embodiment, referring to Figure 3 For bearer identifiers with bearer identifier = 1 and bearer identifier = 4, their BSR is reported to the terrestrial cell in units of LCG. For bearer identifiers with bearer identifier = 2 and bearer identifier = 3, their BSR is reported to the satellite cell in units of LCG. In addition, when the terminal performs uplink resource allocation, it is necessary to consider the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier. For example, bearer identifiers with bearer identifier = 1 and bearer identifier = 4 are only allowed to use uplink resources allocated by the terrestrial cell; bearer identifiers with bearer identifier = 2 and bearer identifier = 3 indicate that only uplink resources allocated by the terrestrial cell are allowed to be used.

[0116] Scene 6:

[0117] In this scenario, a buffer status report BSR and uplink resource allocation are performed according to a first mapping relationship. The first mapping relationship includes a bearer identifier, and the second target identifier includes a cell identifier list.

[0118] In this example, the cell identifier list may be a list of cell identifiers, for example, referring to Table 13, including one or more cell identifiers that can be used by the bearer identifier:

[0119] Table 13

[0120] First target identification Second target identifier Bearer ID = 1 Cell list 1 {Cell 1, Cell 2} Bearer ID = 2 Cell list 2 {Cell 3, Cell 4} Bearer ID = 3 Cell list 2 {Cell 1, Cell 2} Bearer ID = 4 Cell list 1 {Cell 3, Cell 4}

[0121] In this example, refer to Figure 4 For the bearer identifiers of bearer identifier = 1 and bearer identifier = 4, the BSR is reported to the cell corresponding to Cell list 1 in units of LCG. For the bearer identifiers of bearer identifier = 2 and bearer identifier = 3, the BSR is reported to the cell corresponding to Cell list 2 in units of LCG. In addition, when the terminal performs uplink resource allocation, it is necessary to consider the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier. For example, the bearer identifiers of bearer identifier = 1 and bearer identifier = 4 are only allowed to use the uplink resources allocated on the cells in Cell list 1; the bearer identifiers of bearer identifier = 2 and bearer identifier = 3 are only allowed to use the uplink resources allocated on the cells in Cell list 2. In summary, through the resource configuration method of the embodiment of the present application, the terminal can determine the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier, and report the BSR of the buffer status according to the first mapping relationship, and / or, uplink resource allocation. This method can ensure that different services of the terminal can select the appropriate cell type for transmission during air interface transmission, thereby better ensuring the QoS of the service and improving the user experience.

[0122] In different application scenarios, the manner of determining the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier is different, which is explained below with reference to different examples. The network device corresponding to the network side involved in the following embodiments may be a base station, which may include multiple cells providing services to the terminal. Depending on the specific application scenario, the base station may also be called an access point, or may be a device in the access network that communicates with the wireless terminal device through one or more sectors on the air interface, or other names. The network device may be used to interchange received air frames with Internet Protocol (IP) packets, acting as a router between the wireless terminal device and the rest of the access network, wherein the rest of the access network may include an Internet Protocol (IP) communication network. The network device may also coordinate the attribute management of the air interface. For example, the network device involved in the embodiments of the present application may be a network device (Base Transceiver Station, BTS) in the Global System for Mobile communications (GSM) or Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), or a network device (NodeB) in Wide-band Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), or an evolutionary network device (eNB or e-NodeB) in the Long Term Evolution (LTE) system, a 5G base station (gNB) in the 5G network architecture (next generation system), or a home evolved Node B (HeNB), a relay node, a femto, a pico, etc., which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. In some network structures, the network device may include a centralized unit (CU) node and a distributed unit (DU) node, and the centralized unit and the distributed unit may also be geographically separated.

[0123] The example description is as follows:

[0124] Example 1:

[0125] In this example, a first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier is determined according to a preset protocol.

[0126] It can be understood that in this embodiment, the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier is specified according to the protocol, and the first mapping relationship can refer to the above embodiment.

[0127] Example 2:

[0128] In this example, RRC signaling or MAC signaling sent by the network side is received, wherein the RRC signaling or MAC signaling includes: a first target identifier and a second target identifier corresponding to the first target identifier.

[0129] In this embodiment, the RRC signaling or MAC signaling may include: a logical channel identifier, or a bearer identifier or a QoS parameter identifier, a logical channel identifier, or a bearer identifier, or a second target identifier corresponding to the QoS parameter identifier, etc.

[0130] For example, when the terminal device reports the buffer status BSR and allocates uplink resources according to the first mapping relationship, refer to Figure 3 , the terminal device determines a first mapping relationship between a first target identifier (eg, a logical channel identifier and a bearer identifier, etc.) and a second target identifier (cell type in the figure) based on the network configuration.

[0131] In this embodiment, the network notifies the terminal via RRC signaling or MAC signaling, wherein the RRC signaling or MAC signaling needs to include at least: a logical channel identifier or a bearer identifier, and a second target identifier corresponding to the logical channel identifier or the bearer identifier. Taking RRC signaling as an example, the second identifier information can be carried in the LCHrestriction corresponding to the logical channel identifier or the bearer identifier.

[0132] Example 3:

[0133] In this example, physical layer signaling sent by the network side is received, wherein the physical layer signaling includes: resource allocation information for the second target identifier, and the first target identifier corresponding to the resource allocation information, such as the logical channel identifier or bearer identifier corresponding to the resource allocation information.

[0134] It can also be understood that, in this example, the network side notifies the terminal device of the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier in a physical layer signaling manner.

[0135] It should be emphasized that the above three methods for determining the first mapping relationship can be applied to the determination of any first mapping relationship. Examples are as follows:

[0136] (1) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a QoS parameter identifier and a cell type identifier. In this example, the first mapping relationship between the QoS parameter identifier and the cell type identifier can be determined according to a preset protocol.

[0137] The RRC signaling or MAC signaling sent by the network side may also be received, wherein the RRC signaling or MAC signaling includes: a QoS parameter identifier and a cell type identifier corresponding to the QoS parameter identifier.

[0138] The physical layer signaling sent by the network side may also be received, wherein the physical layer signaling includes: resource allocation information carrying a cell type identifier, and a QoS parameter identifier corresponding to the resource allocation information.

[0139] (2) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a QoS parameter identifier and a cell identifier list.

[0140] In this example, the first mapping relationship between the QoS parameter identifier and the cell identifier list may be determined according to a preset protocol.

[0141] The RRC signaling or MAC signaling sent by the network side may also be received, wherein the RRC signaling or MAC signaling includes: a QoS parameter identifier and a cell identifier list corresponding to the QoS parameter identifier.

[0142] The physical layer signaling sent by the network side may also be received, wherein the physical layer signaling includes: resource allocation information carrying a cell identifier list, and a QoS parameter identifier corresponding to the resource allocation information.

[0143] (3) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a logical channel identifier and a cell type identifier.

[0144] In this example, the first mapping relationship between the logical channel identifier and the cell type identifier may be determined according to a preset protocol.

[0145] The RRC signaling or MAC signaling sent by the network side may also be received, wherein the RRC signaling or MAC signaling includes: a logical channel identifier and a cell type identifier corresponding to the logical channel identifier.

[0146] The physical layer signaling sent by the network side may also be received, wherein the physical layer signaling includes: resource allocation information carrying a cell type identifier, and a logical channel identifier corresponding to the resource allocation information.

[0147] (4) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a logical channel identifier and a cell identifier list.

[0148] In this example, the first mapping relationship between the logical channel identifier and the cell identifier list may be determined according to a preset protocol.

[0149] The RRC signaling or MAC signaling sent by the network side may also be received, wherein the RRC signaling or MAC signaling includes: a logical channel identifier and a cell identifier list corresponding to the logical channel identifier.

[0150] The physical layer signaling sent by the network side may also be received, wherein the physical layer signaling includes: resource allocation information carrying a cell identifier list, and a logical channel identifier corresponding to the resource allocation information.

[0151] (5) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a bearer identifier and a cell type identifier.

[0152] In this example, the first mapping relationship between the bearer identifier and the cell type identifier may be determined according to a preset protocol.

[0153] The RRC signaling or MAC signaling sent by the network side may also be received, wherein the RRC signaling or MAC signaling includes: a bearer identifier and a cell type identifier corresponding to the bearer identifier.

[0154] The physical layer signaling sent by the network side may also be received, wherein the physical layer signaling includes: resource allocation information carrying a cell type identifier, and a bearer identifier corresponding to the resource allocation information.

[0155] (6) The first mapping relationship includes the correspondence between the bearer identifier and the cell identifier list,

[0156] In this example, the first mapping relationship between the bearer identifier and the cell identifier list may be determined according to a preset protocol.

[0157] The RRC signaling or MAC signaling sent by the network side may also be received, wherein the RRC signaling or MAC signaling includes: a bearer identifier and a cell identifier list corresponding to the bearer identifier.

[0158] The physical layer signaling sent by the network side may also be received, wherein the physical layer signaling includes: resource allocation information carrying a cell identifier list, and a bearer identifier corresponding to the resource allocation information.

[0159] In summary, the resource configuration method of the embodiment of the present application can flexibly select the method for determining the first mapping relationship according to the needs of the scenario, thereby ensuring the practicality of the resource configuration method.

[0160] Based on the above embodiments, during the actual execution process, there may be a situation in the first mapping relationship where a single first target identifier corresponds to multiple second target identifiers. In order to ensure normal communication, it is necessary to further determine the correspondence between the first target identifier and the second identifier for this one-to-many scenario.

[0161] In this example, when the first mapping relationship includes: configuring multiple second target identifiers for the first target identifier, such as Figure 5 As shown, the method further includes:

[0162] Step 501: Receive signaling sent by a network side, where the signaling is used to indicate a second mapping relationship between a second target identifier corresponding to a first target identifier and currently used.

[0163] In some possible examples, if the signaling used on the network side is RRC signaling, the terminal device receives MAC signaling or physical layer signaling sent by the network side, and the MAC signaling or physical layer signaling is used to indicate the second mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier used at the current moment.

[0164] In other possible examples, if the signaling used on the network side is MAC signaling, and the first target identifier corresponds to multiple second target identifiers, the terminal device receives physical layer signaling sent by the network side, and the physical layer signaling is used to indicate the second mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier used at the current moment.

[0165] In this embodiment, the network side further indicates, through signaling, the second mapping relationship between the second target identifier corresponding to the first target identifier currently used.

[0166] Step 502: Perform buffer status reporting (BSR) and / or uplink resource allocation according to the second mapping relationship.

[0167] It can be understood that the second mapping relationship includes the first target identifier and the second target identifier required for the multi-connection scenario. Therefore, buffer status reporting BSR (Buffer Status Reporting) or uplink resource allocation can be performed according to the second mapping relationship, or buffer status reporting BSR and uplink resource allocation.

[0168] In order to more clearly understand how to indicate the second mapping relationship between the second target identifier corresponding to the first target identifier used at the current moment, the following example is provided in conjunction with a specific scenario:

[0169] Scenario 1:

[0171] Table 14

[0172]

[0173]

[0174] In this embodiment, for the logical channel identifier of LCID=5, the corresponding second mapping relationship can be confirmed in the following two ways:

[0175] The first method: based on UE implementation, it is selected whether the data of the LCID is reported to the terrestrial cell or the satellite cell, that is, on the terminal device side, it is selected whether the logical channel identifier of LCID=5 corresponds to the terrestrial cell or the satellite cell.

[0176] The second method: The network device on the network side further indicates the second mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier used at the current moment through MAC signaling or physical layer signaling, and then the terminal determines whether the LCID data is reported to the ground cell or the satellite cell based on the second mapping relationship.

[0177] Scenario 2:

[0178] In this scenario, referring to Table 15, the first mapping relationship includes a logical channel identifier, and the second target identifier includes a cell identifier list.

[0183] The second method: The network device on the network side further indicates the second mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier used at the current moment through MAC signaling or physical layer signaling, and then the terminal determines whether the LCID data is reported to the cell corresponding to Cell list1 or Cell list2 based on the second mapping relationship.

[0184] Scenario 3:

[0185] In this scenario, referring to Table 16 below, the first target identifier in the first mapping relationship may be a QoS parameter identifier, and the second target identifier may be a cell type identifier.

[0186] Table 16

[0189] In this embodiment, for the QoS parameter identifier of 5QI=5,7, the corresponding second mapping relationship can be confirmed in the following two ways:

[0190] The first method: based on UE implementation, it is selected whether the LCID data is reported to the terrestrial cell or the satellite cell, that is, on the terminal device side, it is selected whether the 5QI=5,7 corresponds to the terrestrial cell or the satellite cell.

[0191] The second method: The network device on the network side further indicates the second mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier used at the current moment through MAC signaling or physical layer signaling, and then the terminal determines whether the 5QI=5,7 is reported to the ground cell or the satellite cell based on the second mapping relationship.

[0192] Scenario 4:

[0193] In this scenario, as shown in Table 17, the first target identifier in the first mapping relationship may be a QoS parameter identifier, and the second target identifier may be a cell identifier list.

[0194] Table 17

[0195]

[0196] In this embodiment, for the QoS parameter identifier of 5QI=5,7, the corresponding second mapping relationship can be confirmed in the following two ways:

[0197] The first method: based on UE implementation, select the cell corresponding to which cell identification list the 5QI=5,7 data is reported to, that is, select whether the 5QI=5,7 corresponds to Cell list1 or Cell list2 on the terminal device side.

[0198] The second method: The network device on the network side further indicates the second mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier used at the current moment through MAC signaling or physical layer signaling, and then the terminal determines whether the 5QI=5,7 data is reported to the cell corresponding to Cell list1 or Cell list2 based on the second mapping relationship.

[0199] Scene 5:

[0200] In this scenario, the first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a bearer identifier and a cell type identifier. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 18 below:

[0201] Table 18

[0202] First target identification Second target identifier … … Bearer ID = 5 Ground community, ground community

[0203] In this embodiment, for the bearer identifier of bearer identifier=5, the corresponding second mapping relationship can be confirmed in the following two ways:

[0204] The first method: based on UE implementation, it is selected whether the LCID data is reported to the terrestrial cell or the satellite cell, that is, on the terminal device side, it is selected whether the bearer identifier corresponds to the terrestrial cell or the satellite cell.

[0205] The second method: The network device on the network side further indicates the second mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier used at the current moment through MAC signaling or physical layer signaling, and then the terminal determines whether the data with the bearer identifier = 5 is reported to the ground cell or the satellite cell based on the second mapping relationship.

[0206] Scene 6:

[0207] In this scenario, as shown in List 19, the first mapping relationship includes a bearer identifier, and the second target identifier includes a cell identifier list.

[0208] In this example, the cell identifier list may be a list of cell identifiers, for example, referring to Tables 9 and 19, including one or more cell identifiers that can be used by the bearer identifier:

[0209] Table 19

[0210]

[0211] In this embodiment, for the bearer identifier of bearer identifier=5, the corresponding second mapping relationship can be confirmed in the following two ways:

[0212] The first method: based on UE implementation, select the cell corresponding to which cell identifier list the 5QI=5,7 data is reported to, that is, select whether the bearer identifier=5 corresponds to Cell list1 or Cell list2 on the terminal device side.

[0213] The second method: The network device on the network side further indicates the second mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier used at the current moment through MAC signaling or physical layer signaling, and then the terminal determines whether the bearer identifier = 5 data is reported to the cell corresponding to Cell list1 or Cell list2 based on the second mapping relationship.

[0214] In summary, in the resource configuration method of the embodiment of the present application, if the first target identifier in the first mapping relationship corresponds to multiple second target identifiers at the same time, the relevant configuration information can further indicate the second mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier used at the current moment, thereby ensuring the flexibility and practicality of resource allocation in the connection scenario.

[0237] In order to implement the above embodiment, the present application also proposes a terminal device, such as Figure 9 As shown, the terminal device includes a memory 910 , a transceiver 920 , and a processor 930 . The transceiver 920 is configured to receive and send data under the control of the processor 930 .

[0238] Among them, Figure 9 In the embodiment, the bus architecture may include any number of interconnected buses and bridges, specifically linking together various circuits of one or more processors represented by processor 930 and memory represented by memory 910. The bus architecture may also link together various other circuits such as peripheral devices, voltage regulators, and power management circuits, which are all well known in the art and, therefore, will not be described further herein. The bus interface provides an interface. The transceiver 920 may be a plurality of components, i.e., a transmitter and a receiver, providing a unit for communicating with various other devices on a transmission medium, such as a wireless channel, a wired channel, an optical cable, and the like.

[0239] The processor 930 may be a central processing unit (CPU), an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a field programmable gate array (FPGA), or a complex programmable logic device (CPLD). The processor may also adopt a multi-core architecture.

[0240] The processor calls the computer program stored in the memory to execute any of the resource configuration methods provided in the embodiments of the present application according to the obtained executable instructions. The processor and the memory can also be arranged physically separately.

[0241] In an embodiment of the present application, the processor is configured to read the computer program in the memory and perform the following operations:

[0242] Determine a first mapping relationship between a first target identifier and a second target identifier, wherein the first target identifier includes at least one of the following: a QoS parameter identifier, a logical channel identifier, and a bearer identifier, and the second target identifier includes at least one of the following: a cell type identifier and a cell identifier list;

[0243] Buffer status reporting BSR and / or uplink resource allocation are performed according to the first mapping relationship.

[0244] In different application scenarios, the correspondence between the first target identifier and the second target identifier included in the first mapping relationship includes one or more of the following:

[0245] (1) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a QoS parameter identifier and a cell type identifier. For example, the first mapping relationship is as shown in Table 2 above, where 5QI in Table 2 is a QoS parameter identifier, and terrestrial cells are cell types.

[0246] (2) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a QoS parameter identifier and a cell identifier list. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 3, where 5QI in Table 3 is a QoS parameter identifier and Cell list is a cell identifier list.

[0247] (3) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a logical channel identifier and a cell type identifier. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 4, where LCID is the logical channel identifier and terrestrial cell is the cell type.

[0248] (4) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a logical channel identifier and a cell identifier list. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 5, where LCID is a logical channel identifier and Cell list is a cell identifier list.

[0249] (5) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a bearer identifier and a cell type identifier. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 6, where terrestrial cells and the like are cell types.

[0250] (6) The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a bearer identifier and a cell identifier list. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 7, where the Cell list in Table 7 is a cell identifier list.

[0251] It can be understood that the first mapping relationship includes the first target identifier and the second target identifier required for the multi-connection scenario. Therefore, buffer status reporting BSR (Buffer Status Reporting) or uplink resource allocation can be performed according to the first mapping relationship, or buffer status reporting BSR and uplink resource allocation.

[0252] The following describes how to report the buffer status to the BSR and / or allocate uplink resources according to the first mapping relationship by taking into account a specific scenario. The description is as follows:

[0253] Scenario 1:

[0254] In this scenario, a buffer status report BSR and uplink resource allocation are performed according to a first mapping relationship. The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a logical channel identifier and a cell type identifier. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 8.

[0255] In this embodiment, for the logical channel identifiers of LCID=1 and LCID=4, their BSRs are reported to the terrestrial cell in units of LCGs. For the logical channel identifiers of LCID=2 and LCID=3, their BSRs are reported to the satellite cell in units of LCGs. In addition, when the terminal performs uplink resource allocation, it is also necessary to consider the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier. For example, the logical channel identifiers of LCID=1 and LCID=4 are only allowed to use the uplink resources allocated by the terrestrial cell; the logical channel identifiers of LCID=2 and LCID=3 indicate that only the uplink resources allocated by the terrestrial cell are allowed to be used.

[0256] Scenario 2:

[0257] In this scenario, a buffer status report BSR and uplink resource allocation are performed according to a first mapping relationship. The first mapping relationship includes a logical channel identifier, and the second target identifier includes a cell identifier list.

[0258] In this example, the cell identifier list may be a list of cell identifiers, for example, referring to Table 9, including one or more cell identifiers that can be used by the logical channel identifier.

[0259] In this example, for the logical channel identifiers of LCID=1 and LCID=4, their BSRs are reported in units of LCG to the cell corresponding to Cell list 1. For the logical channel identifiers of LCID=2 and LCID=3, their BSRs are reported in units of LCG to the cell corresponding to Cell list 2. In addition, when the terminal performs uplink resource allocation, it is necessary to consider the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier. For example, the logical channel identifiers of LCID=1 and LCID=4 are only allowed to use the uplink resources allocated on the cells in Cell list 1; the logical channel identifiers of LCID=2 and LCID=3 are only allowed to use the uplink resources allocated on the cells in Cell list 2.

[0260] Scenario 3:

[0261] In this scenario, the buffer status reporting BSR and uplink resource allocation are performed according to the first mapping relationship. The first target identifier may be a QoS parameter identifier, and the second target identifier may be a cell type identifier.

[0262] In this embodiment, as shown in Table 10, the first target identifier is a QoS parameter identifier, and the second target identifier is a cell type identifier (cell type 1 is a terrestrial cell, and cell type 2 is a satellite cell) is taken as an example.

[0263] In this example, the terminal device reports the BSR based on the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier. For QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=1, 2, and 3, its BSR can be reported to the terrestrial cell, and for QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=4 and 6, its BSR can be reported to the satellite cell. In addition, when the terminal performs uplink resource allocation, it is necessary to consider the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier. For example, QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=1, 2, and 3 only allow the use of uplink resources allocated by the terrestrial cell; QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=4 and 6 only allow the use of uplink resources allocated by the terrestrial cell.

[0264] Scenario 4:

[0265] In this scenario, the buffer status reporting BSR and uplink resource allocation are performed according to the first mapping relationship. The first target identifier may be a QoS parameter identifier, and the second target identifier may be a cell identifier list.

[0266] In this embodiment, as shown in Table 11, the first target identifier is a QoS parameter identifier, and the second target identifier is a cell identifier list as an example.

[0267] In this example, for QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=1, 2, and 3, the BSR is reported to the cell corresponding to Celllist1 in units of LCG. For QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=4, the BSR is reported to the cell corresponding to Celllist2 in units of LCG. For QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=6, the BSR is reported to the cell corresponding to Celllist2 in units of LCG. In addition, when the terminal performs uplink resource allocation, it is necessary to consider the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier. For example, for QoS parameter identifiers of 5QI=1, 2, and 3, only uplink resources allocated on the cells in Celllist1 are allowed to be used; for the logical channel identifier or bearer identifier of the QoS parameter identifier of 5QI=4, only uplink resources allocated on the cells in Celllist2 are allowed to be used.

[0268] Scene 5:

[0269] In this scenario, the buffer status reporting BSR and uplink resource allocation are performed according to the first mapping relationship. The first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a bearer identifier and a cell type identifier. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 12 above.

[0270] In this embodiment, for bearer identifiers with bearer identifier = 1 and bearer identifier = 4, their BSRs are reported to the terrestrial cell in units of LCGs. For bearer identifiers with bearer identifier = 2 and bearer identifier = 3, their BSRs are reported to the satellite cell in units of LCGs. In addition, when the terminal performs uplink resource allocation, it is necessary to consider the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier. For example, bearer identifiers with bearer identifier = 1 and bearer identifier = 4 are only allowed to use uplink resources allocated by the terrestrial cell; bearer identifiers with bearer identifier = 2 and bearer identifier = 3 indicate that only uplink resources allocated by the terrestrial cell are allowed to be used.

[0271] Scene 6:

[0272] In this scenario, a buffer status report BSR and uplink resource allocation are performed according to a first mapping relationship. The first mapping relationship includes a bearer identifier, and the second target identifier includes a cell identifier list.

[0273] In this example, the cell identifier list may be a list of cell identifiers, for example, referring to Table 13 above, including one or more cell identifiers that can be used by the bearer identifier.

[0274] In this example, for the bearer identifiers of bearer identifier = 1 and bearer identifier = 4, their BSRs are reported to the cell corresponding to Cell list 1 in units of LCG; for the bearer identifiers of bearer identifier = 2 and bearer identifier = 3, their BSRs are reported to the cell corresponding to Cell list 2 in units of LCG. In addition, when the terminal performs uplink resource allocation, it is necessary to consider the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier. For example, the bearer identifiers of bearer identifier = 1 and bearer identifier = 4 are only allowed to use the uplink resources allocated on the cells in Cell list 1; the bearer identifiers of bearer identifier = 2 and bearer identifier = 3 are only allowed to use the uplink resources allocated on the cells in Cell list 2. In summary, through the resource configuration method of the embodiment of the present application, the terminal can determine the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier, and report the BSR of the buffer status and / or uplink resource allocation according to the first mapping relationship. This method can ensure that different services of the terminal can select the appropriate cell type for transmission during air interface transmission, thereby better ensuring the QoS of the service and improving the user experience.

[0275] In different application scenarios, the processor determines the first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier in different ways, which are described below with reference to different examples. The examples are as follows:

[0276] Example 1:

[0277] In this example, the processor determines a first mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier according to a preset protocol.

[0278] Example 2:

[0279] In this example, the processor receives RRC signaling or MAC signaling sent by the network side, wherein the RRC signaling or MAC signaling includes: a first target identifier and a second target identifier corresponding to the first target identifier.

[0280] Example 3:

[0281] In this example, the processor receives physical layer signaling sent by the network side, wherein the physical layer signaling includes: resource allocation information for the second target identifier, and the first target identifier corresponding to the resource allocation information, such as the logical channel identifier or bearer identifier corresponding to the resource allocation information.

[0282] Based on the above embodiments, during the actual execution process, there may be a situation in the first mapping relationship where a single first target identifier corresponds to multiple second target identifiers. In order to ensure normal communication, the processor needs to further determine the correspondence between the first target identifier and the second identifier for this one-to-many scenario.

[0283] In some possible examples, if the signaling used on the network side is RRC signaling, the processor receives MAC signaling or physical layer signaling sent by the network side, and the MAC signaling or physical layer signaling is used to indicate the second mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier used at the current moment.

[0284] In other possible examples, if the signaling used on the network side is MAC signaling, and the first target identifier corresponds to multiple second target identifiers, the processor receives physical layer signaling sent by the network side, and the physical layer signaling is used to indicate the second mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier used at the current moment.

[0285] It can be understood that the second mapping relationship includes the first target identifier and the second target identifier required for the multi-connection scenario. Therefore, buffer status reporting BSR (Buffer Status Reporting) or uplink resource allocation can be performed according to the second mapping relationship, or buffer status reporting BSR and uplink resource allocation.

[0286] In order to more clearly understand how to indicate the second mapping relationship between the second target identifier corresponding to the first target identifier used at the current moment, the following example is provided in conjunction with a specific scenario:

[0287] Scenario 1:

[0288] In this scenario, the first mapping relationship includes a correspondence between a logical channel identifier and a cell type identifier. For example, the first mapping relationship is shown in Table 14 above.

[0289] In this embodiment, for the logical channel identifier of LCID=5, the corresponding second mapping relationship can be confirmed in the following two ways:

[0290] The first method: based on UE implementation, it is selected whether the data of the LCID is reported to the terrestrial cell or the satellite cell, that is, on the terminal device side, it is selected whether the logical channel identifier of LCID=5 corresponds to the terrestrial cell or the satellite cell.

[0291] The second method: The network device on the network side further indicates the second mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier used at the current moment through MAC signaling or physical layer signaling, and then the terminal determines whether the LCID data is reported to the ground cell or the satellite cell based on the second mapping relationship.

[0292] Scenario 2:

[0293] In this scenario, referring to Table 15, the first mapping relationship includes a logical channel identifier, and the second target identifier includes a cell identifier list.

[0294] In this embodiment, for the logical channel identifier of LCID=5, the corresponding second mapping relationship can be confirmed in the following two ways:

[0295] The first method: based on UE implementation, select the cell corresponding to which cell identifier list the LCID data is reported, that is, select the logical channel identifier of LCID=5 corresponding to Cell list1 or Cell list2 on the terminal device side.

[0296] The second method: The network device on the network side further indicates the second mapping relationship between the first target identifier and the second target identifier used at the current moment through MAC signaling or physical layer signaling, and then the terminal determines whether the LCID data is reported to the cell corresponding to Cell list1 or Cell list2 based on the second mapping relationship.
