Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of communication, and in particular to an information transmission method and device, a terminal and a network device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The amount of eXtended Reality (XR) service data is large, and in order to improve the system capacity, configured grant (CG) resources are needed for uplink data transmission. The CG configuration period and resources in each period are pre-configured by the network side (for example, gNB), and multiple CG resources can be configured in one period.

[0003] If the amount of service data is small, some configured grant occasions (CGOs) are not used. The terminal will send an indication to the gNB after resource allocation, indicating the gNB to re-allocate these unused resources to other terminals or other services. However, the CGO interval in one period is short, and if there is a delay in the terminal reporting process, the resources cannot be re-allocated in time, which can easily cause the problem of reduced efficiency.

[0110] Reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a structural diagram of a network system to which the embodiments of the present application can be applied, as shown in Figure 1 , which includes a user terminal 11 and a base station 12, wherein the user terminal 11 can be a user equipment (User Equipment, UE), for example, a terminal side device such as a mobile phone, a tablet personal computer (Tablet Personal Computer), a laptop computer (Laptop Computer), a personal digital assistant (personal digital assistant, PDA), a mobile Internet device (Mobile Internet Device, MID) or a wearable device, and it should be noted that the specific type of the user terminal 11 is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0111] Firstly, based on the technical solutions provided in the present application, some technical terms that may be involved are introduced.

[0112] 1. Basic concept of extended reality (eXtended Reality, XR)

[0113] The 3GPP 5G system introduces XR services, and XR is divided into the following categories:

[0114] Augmented reality (Augmented Reality, AR): seamlessly integrating the real world and the virtual world, half true and half false.

[0115] Virtual reality (Virtual Reality, VR): using devices to simulate a virtual world, all fake.

[0116] Mixed reality (Mixed Reality, MR): contains both real physical entities and virtual information.

[0117] XR service is modeled as data frames, which can be segmented into multiple packet data units (PDUs). As shown in Figure 2 Figure 2 In which, the definition of PDU set is as follows: one or more PDUs corresponding to the same information unit constitute a PDU set. Only when all PDUs in a PDU set are successfully delivered, the PDU set is considered to be successfully delivered.

[0118] 2、Configured Grant (CG)

[0119] The terminal can perform uplink data transmission through the configured grant occasion (CGO). XR service is periodic, and CG is a suitable resource allocation method, which can be used to transmit the terminal's location update information. In the prior art, only one physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission opportunity can be used for CG transmission in each CG period. Considering that a single CGO may not be able to transmit all data, multiple PUSCH resources can be used for data transmission in a CG period. That is, multiple CG PUSCH transmission opportunities (Transmission Occasion) can be configured in a CG period.

[0120] Introducing multiple PUSCH occasions in a CG period has two benefits. The first is capacity enhancement, which can improve the efficient transmission performance of large-capacity XR service; the second is to solve the alignment problem of XR non-integer period service. For example, when the service is 60fps and the period is equal to 50 / 3ms, three PUSCH occasions can be configured in a 50ms CG period, with their period allocation being 17ms, 17ms, and 16ms. Aligning each CGO with the data packet of the XR service can, to some extent, avoid the mismatch problem of non-integer XR period.

[0121] However, if the data volume of the service has a certain variability, all CGOs in each CG period cannot be fully utilized. When the data volume of the service becomes relatively large, the terminal can fully utilize the PUSCH resource, but when the data volume of the service is relatively small, the UE can only use a part of the CGO in a CG period. That is, when the data volume of the service is too small, a large number of pre-allocated resources will not be needed, causing a waste of resources.

[0122] ​When a PDU set needs to be transmitted, and gNB needs to receive all PDUs in the PDU set to complete the service normally, once some PDUs in the PDU set are discarded due to retransmission exceeding a specified number of times or other reasons, the remaining PDUs in the PDU set that have not been uploaded should also be discarded, and the CGO allocated for these PDUs should also be regarded as unused CGO.

[0123] Currently, there is a method that when there are unused CGOs in a certain period, the terminal will report these CGOs. When PUSCH resources in a CG period are not fully utilized, the terminal will send an indication to the gNB to inform the gNB which PUSCH resources are not used, so that the gNB can release these unused PUSCH resources and allocate them to other terminals or other services to improve system capacity.

[0124] Suppose the terminal uses an uplink control information (UCI) (such as CG-UCI or new UCI) mechanism to provide an indication of "unused CGO", indicating that the UE no longer uses these CGOs. When a certain CG resource is called "unused", it means that nothing will be transmitted in these resources through the physical layer. That is, the physical layer does not receive any MAC PDU from the MAC layer for transmitting data.

[0125] However, in principle, frequent UCI delivery should be avoided, and if only relying on the mechanism of reporting unused CGOs to inform the gNB to reallocate resources to other terminals, there may be a delay problem in the allocation process, causing resources to be unable to be called in time, resulting in a problem of reduced efficiency.

[0126] If optimization is made on the pre-allocation of CGO, this problem can be avoided to some extent.

[0127] Based on the analysis, the embodiments of the present application provide an information transmission method and device, a terminal and a network device to solve the problem of resource waste caused by insufficient use of CG resources.

[0128] The method and the device are based on the same application concept, and since the principles of solving problems are similar, the implementation of the device and the method can be mutually referred to, and the repeated parts will not be described again.

[0129] As shown in FIG. 1, the embodiments of the present application provide an information transmission method, which is executed by a terminal and includes the following steps. Figure 3

[0130] ​In step S301, first information is sent to the network device, the first information being used to instruct the network device to adjust a target configuration grant period and / or a number of configuration grant occasions (CGO) in a configuration grant period after the target configuration grant period.

[0131] It should be noted that, by sending the first information to the network device, the first information being used to instruct the network device to adjust a target configuration grant period and / or a number of configuration grant occasions (CGO) in a configuration grant period after the target configuration grant period, the terminal can adjust the CGO resources in the CG period in real time, and avoid resource waste as much as possible.

[0132] Optionally, in an implementation, the specific implementation of sending the first information to the network device includes:

[0133] The first information is sent to the network device according to the CGO usage rates of K configuration grant periods.

[0134] The K configuration grant periods include the target configuration grant period and K-1 configuration grant periods before the target configuration grant period, and K is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

[0135] Optionally, the terminal can send the first information to the network device based on the CGO usage rate of the target configuration grant period, or based on the CGO usage rate of the target configuration grant period and the CGO usage rates of the configuration grant periods before the target configuration grant period.

[0136] Further optionally, in an implementation, the specific implementation of sending the first information to the network device according to the CGO usage rates of K configuration grant periods includes:

[0137] In a case where the CGO usage rate of the target configuration grant period is less than a first threshold, the first information is sent to the network device according to the CGO usage rates of K configuration grant periods.

[0138] Optionally, the first threshold is usually a percentage greater than 0 and less than 1.

[0139] It should be noted that, if the CGO usage rate of the target configuration grant period is less than the first threshold, it can be understood that the CGO usage rate in the target configuration grant period is low, and the number of unused CGOs is large. In this case, according to the CGO usage rates of K configuration grant periods, if it is determined that the first information instructing the network device to adjust the number of CGOs in the configuration grant period needs to be sent to the network device, the terminal sends the first information to the network device; in this way, the CGO resources in the CG period can be adjusted in real time, and resource waste can be avoided as much as possible.

[0140] Optionally, the CGO mentioned in the embodiments of the present application refers to a PUSCH CGO.

[0141] Optionally, the target configured grant period can be understood as a configured grant period in which the CGO for the PUSCH transmission is about to be or is being used, and the target configured grant period can also be understood as the current configured grant period.

[0142] Optionally, in an implementation, the specific implementation of sending the first information to the network device according to the CGO usage rates of the K configured grant periods includes at least one of the following:

[0143] A11, if the number of configured grant periods in which the CGO usage rate is less than the first threshold in the K configured grant periods is greater than or equal to a second threshold, the first information is sent to the network device;

[0144] It should be noted that in this case, the CGO usage rates of the K consecutive periods including the target configured grant period are counted, and if there are M configured grant periods in which the CGO usage rate is less than the first threshold, the first information needs to be sent to the network device; wherein M is greater than or equal to the second threshold, which can be understood as the lower limit of the number of periods in which the CGO usage rate is less than the first threshold.

[0145] Optionally, the terminal can directly count the CGO usage rates of the K configured grant periods, determine whether there are M configured grant periods in which the CGO usage rate is less than the first threshold in the K periods, and if there are M configured grant periods in which the CGO usage rate is less than the first threshold in the K periods, the first information is sent to the network device; or, optionally, the terminal can first count the CGO usage rate of the target configured grant period, and only in the case where the CGO usage rate of the target configured grant period is less than the first threshold, the CGO usage rates of the K configured grant periods are counted, it is determined whether there are M configured grant periods in which the CGO usage rate is less than the first threshold in the K periods, and if there are M configured grant periods in which the CGO usage rate is less than the first threshold in the K periods, the first information is sent to the network device.

[0146] A12, if the average value of the CGO usage rates of the K configured grant periods is less than the first threshold, the first information is sent to the network device;

[0147] It should be noted that in this case, the average value of the CGO usage rates of the K consecutive periods including the target configured grant period is counted, and if the average value is less than the first threshold, the first information needs to be sent to the network device.

[0148] Optionally, the terminal can directly calculate the average of the CGO usage rates of the K configured grant periods, determine whether the average is less than the first threshold, and if the average is less than the first threshold, send the first information to the network device; or, optionally, the terminal can first calculate the CGO usage rate of the target configured grant period, and only if the CGO usage rate of the target configured grant period is less than the first threshold, continue to calculate the average of the CGO usage rates of the K configured grant periods, determine whether the average is less than the first threshold, and if the average is less than the first threshold, send the first information to the network device.

[0149] It should be further noted that preferably, A11 and A12 are applicable to the case where K is greater than or equal to 2.

[0150] A13, if the CGO usage rate of the target configured grant period is less than the first threshold, send the first information to the network device;

[0151] It should be noted that in this case, it can be understood that only the CGO usage rate of the target configured grant period is determined, and as long as the CGO usage rate of the target configured grant period is less than the first threshold, the first information is sent to the network device.

[0152] Preferably, A13 is applicable to the case where K is equal to 1.

[0153] It should be noted here that if the conditions of A11, A12 or A13 described above are met, the first information needs to be sent to the network device, and if not, the terminal only needs to report the unused CGO in the target configured grant period to indicate the network device to reallocate the unused CGO; for example, the terminal reports the identification information (such as number, index, etc.) of the unused CGO.

[0154] Optionally, in an implementation, the first information includes at least one of the following:

[0155] B11, the percentage of the target CGO number to be reduced in the target configured grant period to the total number of CGOs in the target configured grant period, the percentage being determined according to the first threshold (it can also be understood that the target CGO number to be reduced in the target configured grant period is determined according to the first threshold), or the percentage being determined according to the average of the CGO usage rates of the K configured grant periods (it can also be understood that the target CGO number to be reduced in the target configured grant period is determined according to the average of the CGO usage rates of the K configured grant periods);

[0156] It should be noted that the total number of CGOs in the target configured grant period can be understood as the number of CGOs existing in the target configured grant period before the number of CGOs is adjusted, or can be understood as the original number of CGOs in the target configured grant period.

[0157] It should be noted that in this case, the terminal reports to the network device the percentage of the number of CGOs remaining after reduction in the target configured grant period to the total number of CGOs in the target configured grant period; optionally, in the case where the terminal sends the first information to the network device in the manner of A11 or A13, the percentage is determined according to the first threshold, and in general, the percentage is equal to the first threshold; optionally, in the case where the terminal sends the first information to the network device in the manner of A12, the percentage is determined according to the average of the CGO usage rates of the K configured grant periods, and in general, the percentage is equal to the percentage of the average of the CGO usage rates of the K configured grant periods to the total number of CGOs in the target configured grant period.

[0158] B12, the number of GGOs to be reduced in the target configured grant period;

[0159] It should be noted that the number of GGOs to be reduced in the target configured grant period can be determined by the percentage of the target number of CGOs to be reduced in the target configured grant period to the total number of CGOs in the target configured grant period; for example, the number of GGOs to be reduced in the target configured grant period = (1 - the percentage of the target number of CGOs to be reduced in the target configured grant period to the total number of CGOs in the target configured grant period) x the total number of GGOs in the target configured grant period.

[0160] B13, the target number of GGOs to be reduced in the target configured grant period;

[0161] It should be noted that the number of GGOs to be reduced in the target configured grant period can be determined by the percentage of the target number of CGOs to be reduced in the target configured grant period to the total number of CGOs in the target configured grant period; for example, the target number of GGOs to be reduced in the target configured grant period = the percentage of the target number of CGOs to be reduced in the target configured grant period to the total number of CGOs in the target configured grant period x the total number of GGOs in the target configured grant period.

[0162] Further optionally, the above sending of the first information to the network device according to the CGO usage rate of the K configured grant periods can also be understood as:

[0163] According to the first threshold, the first information is sent to the network device (or also can be expressed as: according to the CGO usage of K configuration grant periods, the case that the first information needs to be sent to the network device is determined, according to the first threshold, the first information is sent to the network device; or also can be expressed as: according to the CGO usage of K configuration grant periods, the case that the first information needs to be sent to the network device is determined, the first information is sent to the network device); or

[0164] According to the average of the CGO usage of K configuration grant periods, the first information is sent to the network device (or also can be expressed as: according to the CGO usage of K configuration grant periods, the case that the first information needs to be sent to the network device is determined, the average of the CGO usage of K configuration grant periods, the first information is sent to the network device; or also can be expressed as: according to the CGO usage of K configuration grant periods, the case that the first information needs to be sent to the network device is determined, the first information is sent to the network device).

[0165] For example, if the number of configuration grant periods in which the CGO usage is less than the first threshold is greater than or equal to the second threshold among K configuration grant periods, the first information is sent to the network device according to the first threshold. For example, if the average of the CGO usage of K configuration grant periods is less than the first threshold, the first information is sent to the network device according to the average of the CGO usage of K configuration grant periods.

[0166] Further optionally, the above-mentioned case that the first information is sent to the network device according to the CGO usage of K configuration grant periods when the CGO usage of the target configuration grant period is less than the first threshold can also be understood as:

[0167] The first information is sent to the network device according to the first threshold when the CGO usage of the target configuration grant period is less than the first threshold (or also can be expressed as: the case that the first information needs to be sent to the network device is determined according to the CGO usage of K configuration grant periods when the CGO usage of the target configuration grant period is less than the first threshold, the first information is sent to the network device according to the first threshold; or also can be expressed as: the case that the first information needs to be sent to the network device is determined according to the CGO usage of K configuration grant periods when the CGO usage of the target configuration grant period is less than the first threshold, the first information is sent to the network device); or

[0168] In a case where the CGO usage ratio of the target configured grant period is less than the first threshold, the first information is sent to the network device according to the average of the CGO usage ratios of the K configured grant periods (or alternatively, in a case where the CGO usage ratio of the target configured grant period is less than the first threshold, the average of the CGO usage ratios of the K configured grant periods is used to determine a case where the first information needs to be sent to the network device, and the first information is sent to the network device; or alternatively, in a case where the CGO usage ratio of the target configured grant period is less than the first threshold, the first information is sent to the network device according to a result of determining whether the first information needs to be sent to the network device according to the CGO usage ratios of the K configured grant periods).

[0169] For example, in a case where the CGO usage ratio of the target configured grant period is less than the first threshold, and in a case where the number of configured grant periods in the K configured grant periods whose CGO usage ratios are less than the first threshold is greater than or equal to a second threshold, the first information is sent to the network device according to the first threshold. For example, in a case where the CGO usage ratio of the target configured grant period is less than the first threshold, and in a case where the average of the CGO usage ratios of the K configured grant periods is less than the first threshold, the first information is sent to the network device according to the average of the CGO usage ratios of the K configured grant periods.

[0170] Optionally, in an implementation, the sending of the first information to the network device comprises:

[0171] sending the first information to the network device through first signaling.

[0172] The first signaling comprises at least one of the following:

[0173] uplink control information (UCI), a medium access control control element (MAC CE), and radio resource control (RRC) signaling.

[0174] Optionally, in a case where the terminal reports the first information to the network device through UCI or a MAC CE, the first information is usually in the form of B11; and in a case where the terminal reports the first information to the network device through RRC signaling, the first information is usually in the form of B12 or B13.

[0175] It should be further noted that after the number of CGOs in the target configured grant period is adjusted, the first threshold should also be adjusted according to the adjustment of the number of CGOs. Optionally, in an implementation, after the first information is sent to the network device, the method further comprises:

[0176] receiving an updated first threshold sent by the network device.

[0177] It should be noted that the manner of adjusting the first threshold is based on network device side implementation, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0178] It should be further noted here that the target configuration grant period requiring CGO usage rate monitoring, the first threshold, K, and the second threshold can be protocol agreed or configured by the network device; for example, in one implementation manner, before the method obtains the CGO usage rate of the target configuration grant period at the configuration grant occasion (CGO), the method further comprises:

[0179] receiving the configuration information of the first information sent by the network device;

[0180] The configuration information comprises at least one of the following:

[0181] the identification information of the target configuration grant period, the first threshold, K, and the second threshold.

[0182] Optionally, when the identification information of the target configuration grant period is configured, the terminal needs to monitor the target configuration grant period, and when the conditions of A11, A12 or A13 are met, the first information needs to be reported; optionally, if the identification information of the target configuration grant period is not configured, the terminal can not monitor the CGO usage rate of the target configuration grant period.

[0183] For example, when the first threshold and K are configured, the terminal uses the judgment condition of A12 for judgment; for example, when the first threshold, K and the second threshold are configured, the terminal uses the judgment condition of A11 for judgment; for example, when the first threshold is configured, the terminal uses the judgment condition of A13 for judgment.

[0184] The specific application of the embodiments of the present application is illustrated as follows.

[0185] Application case one: if the number of configuration grant periods in which the CGO usage rate is less than the first threshold among K configuration grant periods is greater than or equal to the second threshold, the first information is sent to the network device

[0186] Set parameters: T is the first threshold, i.e. CGO threshold, K is the number of periods for CGO usage rate statistics, and N is the upper limit of the number of periods reaching the threshold requirement, i.e. the number of periods in which the CGO usage rate is less than the second threshold.

[0187] When a CG period (i.e. the target configured grant period mentioned above, which can be understood as the current CG period) starts, the terminal determines whether the number of CGOs in the current CG period is too large according to the data to be transmitted. If the number of CGOs is too large, i.e. there can be unused CGOs in the current CG period, the usage rate x% of CGOs in the CG period is calculated, and the value of x% is equal to the ratio of the number of used CGOs in the CG period to the number of allocated CGOs in the CG period.

[0188] It is determined whether x is less than T. If x≥T, the terminal reports the unused CGOs in the current CG period to the network device and instructs the network device to re-allocate the unused CGOs in the current CG period. If x<T, it is determined whether the number of CG periods in which the CGO usage rate is less than T in the K consecutive CG periods including the current CG period has reached N. If not, the terminal reports the unused CGOs in the current CG period to the network device and instructs the gNB to re-allocate the unused CGOs in the CG period. If N is exceeded, in addition to reporting the unused CGOs in the current CG period to the network device, the terminal triggers the terminal to send uplink signaling for instructing the network device to adjust the number of PUSCH CGOs in the current CG period.

[0189] Method one, the uplink signaling can be UCI, and the UCI contains a parameter T, which is used to instruct the network device to reduce the number of CGOs allocated to the terminal in the next time to T% of the last time. Subsequently, the terminal updates the value of the parameter T and restarts the next round of statistics.

[0190] Method two, the uplink signaling can be a MAC CE, and the MAC CE contains a parameter T, which is used to instruct the network device to reduce the number of CGOs allocated to the terminal in the next time to T% of the last time. Subsequently, the terminal updates the value of the parameter T and restarts the next round of statistics.

[0191] Method three, the uplink signaling can be RRC signaling, and the RRC signaling includes two fields of a signaling identifier messageIdentifier and a reduced number of CGOs.

[0192] The value of the reduced number of CGOs field can be determined according to the parameter T, for example, equal to (1-T%)×total number of CGOs in the current period, which is used to instruct the network device to reduce the number of CGOs allocated to the terminal in the next time to T% of the last time. Subsequently, the terminal updates the value of the parameter T and restarts the next round of statistics.

[0193] Application case two, if the average value of the CGO usage rate of the K configured grant periods is less than the first threshold, a first information is sent to the network device

[0194] Set parameters: T is the first threshold, i.e. CGO threshold, K is the number of periods for counting CGO usage rate.

[0195] When a CG period (i.e. the target CG period mentioned above, which can be understood as the current CG period) starts, the terminal determines whether the number of CGOs in the current CG period is too large according to the data to be transmitted. If the number of CGOs is too large, i.e. there may be unused CGOs in the current CG period, the usage rate x% of CGOs in the CG period is calculated, the value of x% being equal to the ratio of the number of used CGOs in the CG period to the number of allocated CGOs in the CG period; if the CGOs in the current CG period are fully utilized, x% = 100%.

[0196] Determine whether x is less than T, if x≥T and x≠100, the terminal reports the unused CGOs in the current CG period to the network device, and instructs the network device to reallocate the unused CGOs in the current CG period. If x<T, the average value of CGO usage rate in the last K CG periods is calculated, and the average value of CGO usage rate in the K periods is denoted as y%. Determine whether y is less than T, if y≥T, report the unused CGOs in the current CG period to the gNB, and instruct the network device to reallocate the unused CGOs in the current CG period; if y<T, in addition to reporting the unused CGOs in the current CG period to the network device, the terminal also triggers to send uplink signaling, which is used to instruct the network device to adjust the number of PUSCH CGOs in the current CG period.

[0197] Method one, the uplink signaling can be UCI, which contains parameter y, used to instruct the network device to reduce the number of CGOs allocated to the terminal next time to y% of the last time. Subsequently, the terminal updates the value of parameter T and restarts the next round of statistics.

[0198] Method two, the uplink signaling can be MAC CE, which contains parameter y, used to instruct the network device to reduce the number of CGOs allocated to the terminal next time to y% of the last time. Subsequently, the terminal updates the value of parameter T and restarts the next round of statistics.

[0199] Method three, the uplink signaling can be RRC signaling, which includes two fields of signaling identifier messageIdentifier and reduced CGO number.

[0200] The value of the reduced CGO number field can be determined according to a parameter y, for example, the value of the field is equal to (1-y%) x the total number of CGOs in the current CG period, and the reduced CGO number field is used to indicate that the network device reduces the number of CGOs to be allocated to the terminal next time to y%. Subsequently, the terminal updates the value of the parameter T and restarts the next round of statistics.

[0201] In conclusion, the embodiments of the present application can timely adjust the number of PUSCH CGOs in the configured grant period, avoid the problem of low efficiency caused by possible scheduling delay, and improve the system capacity.
