[0039] Example embodiments will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] It should be noted that example embodiments may be implemented in many forms and should not be construed as being limited to the examples set forth herein.

[0041] Based on the background technology, it can be seen that for some business scenarios, the existing solutions cannot be well adapted, which will cause transmission delays and unsatisfactory energy-saving effects.

[0042] The inventors have found through research that the reason for the transmission delay and unsatisfactory energy saving effect is that some services have the characteristics of non-integer cycles and / or jitters, and the existing solutions cannot adapt well to the characteristics of non-integer cycles and / or jitters.

[0043] The above-mentioned businesses that cannot be well adapted may include XR (extended reality) businesses, immersive XR, holographic communications, autonomous driving, digital twins, metaverse, etc.

[0044] The characteristic information of the above services may include non-integer periods, service periods, service packet sizes, service jitter characteristics, etc.

[0045] To simplify the description, the following description takes the XR service as an example.

[0046] At present, AR / VR (augmented reality and virtual reality) is one of the important application scenarios / businesses in 5G. With the development of technology, AR / VR will fully evolve to XR (extended reality) in the 5G-Advanced and 6G era.

[0047] The inventors found that XR services require high transmission rates, low latency, and high reliability, which poses a huge challenge to existing networks. Therefore, the inventors began to conduct research on capacity improvement and energy saving for XR services.

[0048] In addition, for XR devices (such as XR glasses), the design of their size and weight will determine whether the device can be worn for a long time. Compared with ordinary terminals, there will be more restrictions on battery capacity and heat dissipation. Therefore, reducing the energy consumption of high-speed transmission of XR services is one of the main directions of standard research.

[0049] NR supports discontinuous transmission DRX terminal energy-saving technology, but the existing solution cannot adapt well to the non-integer cycle characteristics of XR services, which will cause transmission delays and unsatisfactory energy-saving effects.

[0050] Therefore, it is necessary to enhance the cycle configuration of the existing connected discontinuous transmission C-DRX to better adapt to the non-integer cycle requirements of the new XR services and reduce latency and terminal energy consumption.

[0051] In order to adapt to the non-integer period and jitter characteristics of the XR service in the implementation of the present disclosure, the network side configures the user equipment to enable DRX parameter adjustment, and dynamically adjusts the DRX parameter configuration according to the transmission situation of the XR service.

[0052] For ease of understanding, the following first explains the relevant technologies and terms of NR DRX involved in this disclosure as follows:

[0053] RRC signaling configures up to 2 sets of DRX configurations for a cell. The configuration information includes parameters such as on Duration, DRX Cycle, inactivity-timer, retransmission-timer, active-time, etc. Each user equipment (UE) uses one set of DRX configurations.

[0054] on Duration: The time the UE stays awake after waking up from DRX. The UE monitors the PDCCH during this period.

[0055] DRX Cycle: It consists of wake-up time and sleep time and repeats periodically, such as Figure 1 shown.

[0056] inactivity-timer: The duration that the UE stays awake after successfully demodulating the PDCCH. If PDCCH demodulation fails, the UE returns to sleep according to the original sleep time.

[0057] retransmission-timer: The duration for receiving retransmissions.

[0058] Active-time: The total duration that the UE monitors the PDCCH, including the "on Duration" time, "inactivity-timer" time, and "retransmission-timer" time of the DRX cycle.

[0059] Currently, each UE supports up to two sets of DRX parameters, including different on Duration and long and short cycles, but the UE can only use one of them.

[0060] It should be noted that the user devices in the embodiments of the present disclosure include but are not limited to mobile phones, tablet computers, notebooks, vehicle-mounted communication equipment, drones, communication modules on drones, remote-controlled aircraft, aircraft, small aircraft, transportation vehicles, vehicles, RSUs, wireless sensors, Internet cards, Internet of Things terminals, RFID terminals, NB-IOT terminals, MTC (Machine Type Communication) terminals, eMTC (enhanced MTC) terminals, data cards, Internet cards, vehicle-mounted communication equipment, low-cost mobile phones, low-cost tablet computers and other wireless communication devices.

[0061] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the network side device may be a base station (also called a cell).

[0062] Base stations include but are not limited to macrocell base stations, microcell base stations, small cell base stations, home base stations, relay base stations, eNB, gNB, TRP (Transmitter Receiver Point), GNSS, relay satellites, satellite base stations, aerial base stations, RSU (Road Side Unit), drones, test equipment, such as transceivers or signaling testers that simulate some functions of base stations and other wireless communication equipment.

[0063] The present exemplary implementation is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0064] Figure 2 A flow chart of a method for configuring discontinuous reception in an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 2 As shown, the configuration method of discontinuous reception provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure includes the following steps:

[0065] S202: The network sends a signaling to the user equipment, where the signaling includes a discontinuous reception (DRX) parameter.

[0066] The signaling sent by the network side to the user equipment may be at least one of RRC signaling, MAC CE signaling, and DCI signaling.

[0067] The DRX parameter includes at least one of a DRX adjustment factor and a DRX cycle, and the DRX cycle is a non-integer cycle. The DRX parameter is used to semi-statically or dynamically configure the DRX parameter configuration of the user equipment, and / or the DRX parameter is used to semi-statically or dynamically adjust the DRX parameter configuration of the user equipment.

[0068] In some examples, the DRX parameters may also include whether to enable DRX adjustment and / or a DRX adjustment threshold.

[0069] The DRX parameters are determined by the network side based on target data related to the service of the user equipment, and the target data includes characteristic information of the service.

[0070] As an example, the characteristic information of the XR service includes non-integer cycle data of the XR service. The network layer may determine the DRX adjustment factor according to the non-integer cycle data of the XR service.

[0071] Here, the service related to the user device may be at least one of the following services: XR service, immersive XR, holographic communication, autonomous driving, digital twin, metaverse, etc.

[0072] The characteristic information of the service may include non-integer cycles, service cycles, service packet sizes, service jitter characteristics, etc. For example, in order to adapt to the non-integer cycles and jitter characteristics of XR services, the network side configures DRX parameter adjustment for the user equipment and dynamically adjusts the DRX parameter configuration according to the transmission conditions of the XR services.

[0073] In some examples, the present disclosure may also adjust the radio resource control RRC protocol so that the RRC protocol supports DRX non-integer cycle configuration. Therefore, the DRX parameters in the present disclosure may include a DRX cycle, and the DRX cycle is a non-integer cycle.

[0074] S204: The user equipment performs discontinuous reception according to the DRX parameters.

[0075] Discontinuous Reception (DRX) is a packet-based data flow that is usually bursty, with data transmission for a period of time, but no data transmission for a longer period of time. When there is no data transmission, power consumption can be reduced by stopping receiving PDCCH. In S204 of the present disclosure, the cycle is adjusted according to the DRX parameters to better adapt to the service.

[0076] In some embodiments, the DRX adjustment factor may include a DRX offset or a DRX offset index value, where the DRX offset index value is used to indicate the DRX offset.

[0077] In S204, discontinuous reception is performed according to the DRX parameters. The user equipment may configure the DRX parameters or adjust the start time of the DRX wake-up time in its own DRX configuration, and then perform discontinuous reception according to the adjusted DRX cycle.

[0078] In some embodiments, the above method may further include adjusting the start time of the DRX wake-up time in the DRX configuration of the user equipment based on the DRX adjustment factor, or based on the DRX adjustment factor and the DRX adjustment threshold, when DRX adjustment is enabled.

[0079] Here, the start time of the DRX wake-up time may be the start time of the DRX On duration or the start time of the DRX Cycle. For the introduction of On duration and DRX Cycle, see the related technologies and terminology of NR DRX above.

[0080] In some embodiments, when DRX adjustment is turned on, the start time of the DRX wake-up time in the DRX configuration of the user equipment is adjusted based on the DRX adjustment factor and the DRX adjustment threshold. The start time of the DRX wake-up time in the DRX configuration of the user equipment may be adjusted based on the DRX offset or the DRX offset index value when the DRX offset is greater than or equal to the DRX adjustment threshold.

[0081] When the DRX offset is less than the DRX adjustment threshold, the start time of the DRX wake-up time in the DRX configuration of the user equipment is not adjusted.

[0082] As an example, in the above embodiment, adjusting the start time of the DRX wake-up time in the DRX configuration of the user equipment based on the DRX offset or the DRX offset index value may include:

[0083] Based on the DRX offset index value, select a target offset value from a preset table of offset index values ​​and offsets;

[0084] Based on the target offset value, the start time of the DRX wake-up time in the DRX configuration of the user equipment is adjusted.

[0085] It should be noted that the DRX offset is calculated by the network side according to the system frame number, the number of subframes, the non-integer cycle data of the XR service, and the DRX cycle. The DRX parameter may include the DRX offset.

[0086] As an example, the network side can calculate the DRX offset by the following formula:

[0087] O=floor{xr_cycle×floor[(SFN×10+subframe number) / drx_cycle]}-(SFN×10+subframe number)

[0088] Among them, O represents the DRX offset, floor represents the floor function, xr_cycle represents the non-integer cycle data of the XR service, SFN represents the system frame number, subframe number represents the number of subframes, and drx_cycle represents the DRX cycle.

[0089] As an example, non-integer cycle data of the XR service may be rounded down to obtain the DRX cycle drx_cycle.

[0090] In some embodiments, the user equipment may calculate the start time of the DRX wake-up time in the DRX configuration of the user equipment according to the DRX cycle in the DRX parameters.

[0091] As an example, the user equipment may calculate the start time of the DRX wake-up time in the DRX configuration of the user equipment according to the system frame number, the number of subframes, and the DRX cycle.

[0092] As another example, the user equipment may round down the DRX cycle to obtain a DRX integer cycle; and then calculate the start time of the DRX wake-up time in the DRX configuration of the user equipment according to the system frame number, the number of subframes, and the DRX integer cycle.

[0093] As another example, the user equipment may calculate the start time of the DRX wake-up time in the DRX configuration of the user equipment by using the following formula:

[0094] T=ceil{drx_cycle×floor[(SFN×10+subframe number) / drx_cycle]}

[0095] Wherein, T represents the start time of the wake-up time in the DRX configuration of the user equipment, ceil represents an upward rounding function, drx_cycle represents a DRX cycle, floor represents a downward rounding function, SFN represents a system frame number, and subframe number represents the number of subframes.

[0096] The DRX parameters may be determined by the network side based on target data related to the service of the user equipment, where the target data includes characteristic information of the service.

[0097] The target data may come from at least one of a core network, a user device, a base station and a third-party service provider.

[0098] As an example, the target data includes auxiliary configuration information reported by the user equipment, and the auxiliary configuration information includes at least one recommended configuration information in the DRX-related configuration, which is used to improve the network's adaptation to XR services, improve system capacity, and perform collaborative optimization of network services.

[0099] In some embodiments, the target data may also include at least one of the following information:

[0100] User device capability information, XR service information, and network information.

[0101] As an example, the user equipment capability information may include at least one of the following data:

[0102] User equipment energy-saving requirements, user equipment energy consumption level, user equipment processing capabilities, user equipment computing capabilities, user equipment storage capabilities, user equipment support for AI / ML capabilities, user equipment support for machine learning capabilities classification, user equipment support for business prediction capabilities.

[0103] As an example, the XR service information may include at least one of the following data:

[0104] Service type, non-integer period data of XR service, QoS / QoE requirements of XR service, number of XR service flows, XR data packet size, service model prediction results, and XR service information to be transmitted.

[0105] In the disclosed embodiment, DRX parameters can be determined based on XR service information. As an example, based on the AI / ML capability supported by the user equipment, when the user equipment supports AI / ML, the AI / ML model or algorithm can be deployed through the user equipment to extract service feature information, predict services such as XR, and recommend DRX parameter configuration or perform dynamic / semi-static adjustment of DRX configuration based on the prediction results, so as to enable collaborative optimization of network services.

[0106] In some examples, the network information may include at least one of the following data:

[0107] User equipment movement speed, wireless channel environment, network capabilities, amount of data to be transmitted in the network buffer, network latency, network congestion, and network load.

[0108] In the disclosed embodiment, the DRX parameter sent by the network side in S202 includes at least one of a DRX adjustment factor and a DRX cycle, and the DRX cycle is a non-integer cycle.

[0109] When the DRX parameter includes a DRX adjustment factor, DRX may adopt an integer cycle configuration to semi-statically / dynamically adjust the DRX cycle start time.

[0110] When the DRX parameter includes the DRX cycle and the DRX cycle is a non-integer cycle, the DRX is configured as a non-integer cycle. The present disclosure can adjust the radio resource control RRC protocol so that the RRC protocol supports the DRX non-integer cycle configuration.

[0111] For ease of understanding, the process of determining DRX parameters on the network side in the embodiment of the present disclosure is introduced below from two aspects: DRX adopts integer cycle configuration and DRX adopts non-integer cycle configuration.

[0112] First, taking the XR service as an example, introduce the configuration of the DRX with integer cycles.

[0113] When the configuration of whether to enable DRX adjustment and / or the DRX adjustment factor is set, perform the following operations.

[0114] Obtain the XR service non-integer cycle characteristic xr_cycle according to the XR service information, select the DRX cycle drx_cycle and the DRX adjustment threshold L according to the non-integer cycle characteristic.

[0115] Among them, the DRX cycle drx_cycle can be obtained by rounding down the XR service non-integer cycle characteristic xr_cycle.

[0116] Calculate the DRX offset drx_StartOffset (which can also be called the DRX cycle start offset) according to the system frame number SFN, the subframe number, xr_cycle, and drx_cycle as the DRX parameter configuration. The specific formula is as follows:

[0117] O = floor{xr_cycle × floor[(SFN × 10 + subframe number) / drx_cycle]} - (SFN × 10 + subframe number)

[0118] The embodiments of the present disclosure can define / pre-define a table (drx_StartOffset_Table) of offset index values and offsets, which includes several optional values of offset values (drx_StartOffset). Among them, the offset values can be integers.

[0119] As an example, the UE receives the DRX adjustment factor according to the signaling, and the dynamic adjustment factor is equal to the corresponding serial number in drx_SlotOffset or drx_StartOffset_Table, which is used to adjust the start time of the DRX on duration.

[0120] Optionally, perform the following operations: when drx_SlotOffset < L, do not perform the dynamic adjustment operation; when drx_SlotOffset >= L, perform the dynamic adjustment operation.

[0121] The start time of the drx_onDurationTimer is configured after the starting subframe drx_SlotOffset.

[0122] In one example, the DRX is configured with an integer cycle, and the DCI notifies the start time of the adjusted cycle.

[0123] Taking the XR cycle of 60fps (16.67ms) as an example, according to the above formula, the value of drx_cycle is 16ms. When the XR traffic arrival time coincides with the DRX on duration start time, the DRX cycle information calculated according to the above formula is as follows: Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the start of the third DRX cycle is offset by 1ms, and the start of the fourth DRX cycle is offset by 2ms, which is an additional offset of 1ms compared to the previous cycle. The arrival time of the XR traffic in the fourth cycle coincides with the start time of the DRX cycle again.

[0124] In another example, DRX is configured as an integer cycle, and the DRX on duration starts at the time.

[0125] Taking the XR cycle of 60fps (16.67ms) as an example, according to the above formula, the value of drx_cycle is 16ms. Add DRX on duration start time adjustment, DRX cycle information such as Figure 4 If the frame structure supports 30kHz, the dynamic factor adjustment threshold is set to L = 2ms, and drx_SlotOffset is calculated. In the third DRX cycle, drx_SlotOffset = 1ms, and no dynamic adjustment operation is performed. In the fourth cycle, drx_SlotOffset = 2ms> = the dynamic factor adjustment threshold L, and DCI is sent to adjust the onduration start time, with an offset of 2ms.

[0126] In the above example, the DRX integer cycle size is calculated based on the XR service characteristics or feature extraction, the DRX cycle start offset is calculated according to the proposed formula, and the gNB sends the DRX integer cycle configuration information to the UE to complete the DRX configuration. This solution optimizes the cycle configuration based on XR features, and can achieve flexible and dynamic configuration according to different XR service characteristics and network environments. It can extract service features and dynamically configure DRX through the introduction of AI models, thereby reducing latency and terminal energy saving, and improving data transmission capabilities in XR scenarios.

[0127] Next, the use of DRX non-integer cycle configuration is introduced.

[0128] The present disclosure defines / predefines DRX cycle configuration, so that the DRX cycle supports the non-integer cycle characteristics of the XR service, that is, DRXCycle supports non-integer cycle configuration.

[0129] The UE calculates the DRX cycle start time according to the DRX cycle in the DRX-related configuration, that is, calculates the DRX on duration start time according to the system frame number SFN, the subframe number subframe number, and drx_cycle, and the formula is as follows:

[0130] ceil{drx_cycle×floor[(SFN×10+subframe number) / drx_cycle]}

[0131] For example, according to the above formula, taking the DRX cycle equal to 16.67 ms as an example, the start times of DRX on duration are 0, 17, 34, and 50 respectively, which can achieve the effect of 17 / 17 / 16 cycle configuration.

[0132] In one example, DRX is configured as a non-integer cycle and is calculated on the UE side.

[0133] Taking the XR cycle of 60fps (16.67ms) as an example, the value of drx_cycle is 16.67ms. Assuming that the arrival time of XR traffic coincides with the start time of DRX on duration, the start time of DRX on duration is calculated according to the above formula, which is 0, 17, 34, and 50 respectively. The DRX cycle information is as follows: Figure 5 shown.

[0134] In the above example, a non-integer cycle matching the XR cycle is used, RRC supports DRX non-integer cycle configuration, and gNB sends the DRX non-integer cycle configuration to the UE to complete the DRX configuration. This solution is simple and direct, and the XR and DRX cycles are consistent, achieving the effect of terminal energy saving and improving the data transmission capability in the XR scenario.

[0135] The two solutions of DRX using integer cycle configuration and DRX using non-integer cycle configuration introduced above can both adjust the DRX cycle configuration according to semi-static / dynamic signaling and support DRX cycle configuration suitable for XR services.

[0136] Adopt DRX integer cycle configuration, do not change the existing DRX cycle configuration in RRC high-level signaling, import the offset required to estimate the start time of the DRX cycle through service characteristics, and make specific adjustments according to the XR service QoS / QoE and network environment. The configuration is more flexible and applicable to different network environments and service conditions, and can be extended to different XR services, or use AI models to extract service characteristics to optimize DRX configuration. The present disclosure can achieve a smaller average receiving delay based on flexible dynamic configuration, and achieve a balance between energy saving and user experience.

[0137] When using DRX non-integer cycle configuration, the standard high-level protocol needs to be modified to support DRX non-integer cycles. The high-level protocol usually adopts semi-static configuration and needs to be modified accordingly according to the commonly used non-integer cycles of XR services. The solution is simple to implement.

[0138] In the implementation of the present disclosure, the network side (e.g., gNB) semi-statically or dynamically configures and adjusts the DRX parameter configuration of the UE according to the non-integer cycle characteristics of the XR service and QoS / QoE requirements, the amount of data to be transmitted in the buffer, the prediction results of the service model, etc., so as to better adapt to the non-integer cycle characteristics of the XR service, improve the DRX energy-saving efficiency, and reduce the XR service latency.

[0139] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the terms “first”, “second” and “third” are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0140] The term "and / or" in this disclosure is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there may be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0141] Based on the same inventive concept, the embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a method for configuring discontinuous reception, which is applied to a user equipment, such as Figure 6 As shown, the discontinuous reception configuration method includes the following steps:

[0142] S602, receiving a signaling sent by a network side, where the signaling includes a discontinuous reception DRX parameter, where the DRX parameter includes at least one of a DRX adjustment factor and a DRX cycle, where the DRX cycle is a non-integer cycle;

[0143] S604: Perform discontinuous reception according to the DRX parameters.

[0144] In the configuration method of discontinuous reception provided in this embodiment, the user equipment can dynamically configure and adjust the DRX parameter configuration of the user equipment according to the DRX adjustment factor in the DRX parameter, which can better adapt to the non-integer cycle characteristics of the service, improve energy saving efficiency, and reduce service delay. In addition, the user equipment can also directly configure and adjust the DRX parameter configuration of the user equipment according to the DRX cycle of the non-integer cycle, which can also better adapt to the non-integer cycle characteristics of the service, improve energy saving efficiency, and reduce service delay.

[0145] Based on the same inventive concept, the present disclosure also provides a method for configuring discontinuous reception, which is applied to the network side, such as Figure 7 As shown, the discontinuous reception configuration method includes the following steps:

[0146] S702, sending a signaling to the user equipment, where the signaling includes a discontinuous reception DRX parameter, so that the user equipment performs discontinuous reception according to the DRX parameter;
