Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic technology, and in particular to a data processing device and a data processing method. Background Technology

[0002] Downlink transmission refers to data being sent from the network side and received by the terminal device. Uplink transmission refers to data being sent from the terminal device and received by the network side.

[0100] In one possible implementation, the data processing device can also be upgraded. The following describes two optional methods for upgrading the data processing device:

[0101] Equipment upgrade method one: The first signal, the second signal, and the third signal are signals of the first communication standard; such as Figure 2 As shown, a first container 1011 is deployed on the general-purpose processing platform 101.

The third container 1012 includes the protocol stack of the third communication standard, and the third container 1012 is used to call the computing resources of the general processing platform 101 and the coprocessor 102 for data processing.

[0103] Optionally, the first communication standard can be 3G, 4G, 5G, 6G, or a higher communication standard, and the third communication standard has a higher version than the first communication standard.

The first communication standard is 4G, and the third communication standard can be one of 5G or 6G. The first communication standard is 5G, and the third communication standard can be 6G or a higher communication standard.

[0104] Optionally, the first container 1011 may include part or all of the protocol stack of the first communication standard. For example, the first container 1011 may include a PHY layer, a MAC layer, an RLC layer, and a PDCP layer.

After receiving the command to trigger the upgrade, the general-purpose processing platform 101 runs the upgrade script.

[0109] In this embodiment, there is no need to deploy a dedicated chip for the protocol stack in the data processing device. Instead, the protocol stack is mirrored and virtualized within a container on a general-purpose processing platform. This allows for software upgrades of the protocol stack deployed on the general-purpose processing platform. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the communication parameters of the first radio frequency module can also be updated via software.

[0127] In this embodiment, the coprocessor can perform parallel computing. The coprocessor is faster than a general-purpose processing platform. Therefore, using a coprocessor to perform some or all of the physical layer processing, instead of having the general-purpose processing platform perform all physical layer processing, improves data processing efficiency.

[0128] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a data processing device 300 provided in an embodiment of this application.

Alternatively, the eighth process may include all PHY layer processes. Decoding is also a type of PHY layer processing.

[0135] Optionally, the ninth processing also includes some physical PHY layer processing.

[0136] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 4 As shown, a first container 3011 and a second container 3012 are deployed on the general processing platform 301. The first container 3011 includes a protocol stack for a first communication standard, and the second container 3012 includes a protocol stack for a second communication standard.

The third container 1012 includes the protocol stack of the third communication standard, and the third container 1012 is used to call the computing resources of the general processing platform 101 and the coprocessor to perform data processing.
