Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to a method and a device in a wireless communication system, and more particularly to a method and a device supporting discontinuous reception (DRX) in wireless communication. Background Art

[0002] DRX is a common method in wireless communication, which can reduce the power consumption of communication terminals and increase standby time. The base station controls the timer related to DRX through DCI (Downlink Control Information) or MAC (Medium Access Control) CE (Control Element), thereby controlling whether the terminal is in the active time in a given time slot or subframe, and further controlling the wireless reception of the communication terminal, including when the terminal is in the active time, the terminal monitors and receives the wireless signal; when the terminal is in the inactive time, the terminal stops monitoring the wireless signal.

[0003] When UE (User Equipment) moves from the coverage of one cell to the coverage of another cell, it is necessary to change the UE's service cell. Existing service cell changes are usually triggered by L3 (Layer 3) measurements and are implemented through RRC (Radio Resource Control) signaling, including synchronous reconfiguration (Reconfiguration with Synchronization). The service cell change implemented in L3 has the characteristics of long delay, large signaling overhead and long interruption time. In order to overcome the above shortcomings, the 3GPP (3rd Generation Partner Project) RAN (Radio Access Network) #94e plenary meeting decided to start WI (Work Item) standardization work on mobility enhancement technology based on L1 / L2 (Layer 1 / Layer 2). The design goal of the mobility enhancement technology based on L1 / L2 is to achieve fast switching of UE service cells. Summary of the invention

[0004] The inventors have found through research that how to support DRX in the L1 / L2-based mobility enhancement scenario needs to be studied. In response to the above problems, the present application discloses a solution. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the first node of the present application can be applied to the second node, and vice versa. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be arbitrarily combined with each other. Furthermore, although the original intention of the present application is for the Uu air interface, the present application can also be used for the PC5 port. Furthermore, although the original intention of this application is to enhance mobility as a typical scenario or example, this application is also applicable to other scenarios facing similar problems, such as other scenarios that require mobility support, including but not limited to multi-antenna systems, multi-TRP (Transmission Reception Point) systems, capacity enhancement systems, short-range communication systems, unlicensed frequency domain communications, IoT (Internet of Things), URLLC (Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communication) networks, Internet of Vehicles communications, relay communications, dual-connectivity (DC), multi-connectivity (MC), etc., to achieve similar technical effects. In addition, the use of a unified solution for different scenarios (including but not limited to cellular communication scenarios of terminals and base stations) also helps to reduce hardware complexity and cost. In particular, the interpretation of terms (Terminology), nouns, functions, and variables in this application (if not otherwise specified) can refer to the definitions in the 3GPP specification protocols TS38 series and TS37 series.

[0265] Embodiment 3 illustrates a schematic diagram of a wireless protocol architecture of a user plane and a control plane according to an embodiment of the present application, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 3 shown. Figure 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating an embodiment of a radio protocol architecture for a user plane 350 and a control plane 300, Figure 3The radio protocol architecture of the control plane 300 of the UE and gNB is shown in three layers: Layer 1, Layer 2, and Layer 3. Layer 1 (L1 layer) is the lowest layer and implements various PHY (physical layer) signal processing functions. The L1 layer will be referred to as PHY 301 in this article. Layer 2 (L2 layer) 305 is above PHY 301 and is responsible for the link between the UE and the gNB through PHY 301. The L2 layer 305 includes the MAC (Medium Access Control) sublayer 302, the RLC (Radio Link Control) sublayer 303, and the PDCP (Packet Data Convergence Protocol) sublayer 304, which terminate at the gNB on the network side. The PDCP sublayer 304 provides data encryption and integrity protection. The PDCP sublayer 304 also provides support for inter-zone mobility of UEs between gNBs. The RLC sublayer 303 provides segmentation and reassembly of data packets, and retransmission of lost data packets through ARQ. The RLC sublayer 303 also provides duplicate data packet detection and protocol error detection. The MAC sublayer 302 provides mapping between logical and transport channels and multiplexing of logical channel identities. The MAC sublayer 302 is also responsible for allocating various radio resources (e.g., resource blocks) in a cell between UEs. The MAC sublayer 302 is also responsible for HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request) operations. The RRC (Radio Resource Control) sublayer 306 in Layer 3 (L3 layer) in the control plane 300 is responsible for obtaining radio resources (i.e., radio bearers) and configuring the lower layers using RRC signaling between the gNB and the UE. Although not shown in the figure, there may be a V2X layer above the RRC sublayer 306 in the control plane 300 of the UE.

[0277] Example 4

[0278] Embodiment 4 illustrates a hardware module schematic diagram of a communication device according to an embodiment of the present application, as shown in the attached Figure 4 shown. Figure 4 is a block diagram of a first communication device 450 and a second communication device 410 communicating with each other in an access network.

[0279] The first communication device 450 includes a controller / processor 459, a memory 460, a data source 467, a transmit processor 468, a receive processor 456, a multi-antenna transmit processor 457, a multi-antenna receive processor 458, a transmitter / receiver 454 and an antenna 452.

[0280] The second communication device 410 includes a controller / processor 475, a memory 476, a data source 477, a receive processor 470, a transmit processor 416, a multi-antenna receive processor 472, a multi-antenna transmit processor 471, a transmitter / receiver 418 and an antenna 420.

[0281] In the transmission from the second communication device 410 to the first communication device 450, at the second communication device 410, the upper layer data packets from the core network or the upper layer data packets from the data source 477 are provided to the controller / processor 475. The core network and the data source 477 represent all the protocol layers above the L2 layer. The controller / processor 475 implements the functionality of the L2 layer. In the transmission from the second communication device 410 to the first communication device 450, the controller / processor 475 provides header compression, encryption, packet segmentation and reordering, multiplexing between logical and transport channels, and radio resource allocation to the first communication device 450 based on various priority metrics. The controller / processor 475 is also responsible for the retransmission of lost packets and signaling to the first communication device 450. The transmit processor 416 and the multi-antenna transmit processor 471 implement various signal processing functions for the L1 layer (i.e., the physical layer). The transmit processor 416 implements coding and interleaving to facilitate forward error correction (FEC) at the second communication device 410, as well as mapping of signal constellations based on various modulation schemes (e.g., binary phase shift keying (BPSK), quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK), M-phase shift keying (M-PSK), M-quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM)). The multi-antenna transmit processor 471 performs digital spatial precoding, including codebook-based precoding and non-codebook-based precoding, and beamforming processing on the coded and modulated symbols to generate one or more spatial streams. The transmit processor 416 then maps each spatial stream to a subcarrier, multiplexes it with a reference signal (e.g., a pilot) in the time domain and / or frequency domain, and then uses an inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) to generate a physical channel carrying a time-domain multi-carrier symbol stream. The multi-antenna transmit processor 471 then performs a transmit analog precoding / beamforming operation on the time-domain multi-carrier symbol stream. Each transmitter 418 converts the baseband multi-carrier symbol stream provided by the multi-antenna transmit processor 471 into a radio frequency stream, and then provides it to a different antenna 420.

[0282] In the transmission from the second communication device 410 to the first communication device 450, at the first communication device 450, each receiver 454 receives a signal through its corresponding antenna 452. Each receiver 454 recovers the information modulated onto the RF carrier and converts the RF stream into a baseband multi-carrier symbol stream and provides it to the receiving processor 456. The receiving processor 456 and the multi-antenna receiving processor 458 implement various signal processing functions of the L1 layer. The multi-antenna receiving processor 458 performs a receiving analog precoding / beamforming operation on the baseband multi-carrier symbol stream from the receiver 454. The receiving processor 456 uses a fast Fourier transform (FFT) to convert the baseband multi-carrier symbol stream after the receiving analog precoding / beamforming operation from the time domain to the frequency domain. In the frequency domain, the physical layer data signal and the reference signal are demultiplexed by the receiving processor 456, wherein the reference signal will be used for channel estimation, and the data signal is recovered after multi-antenna detection in the multi-antenna receiving processor 458 to any spatial stream destined for the first communication device 450. The symbols on each spatial stream are demodulated and recovered in the receiving processor 456, and soft decisions are generated. The receiving processor 456 then decodes and deinterleaves the soft decisions to recover the upper layer data and control signals transmitted by the second communication device 410 on the physical channel. The upper layer data and control signals are then provided to the controller / processor 459. The controller / processor 459 implements the functions of the L2 layer. The controller / processor 459 may be associated with a memory 460 that stores program codes and data. The memory 460 may be referred to as a computer-readable medium. In the transmission from the second communication device 410 to the first communication device 450, the controller / processor 459 provides multiplexing between transport and logical channels, packet reassembly, decryption, header decompression, control signal processing to recover the upper layer data packets from the second communication device 410. The upper layer data packets are then provided to all protocol layers above the L2 layer. Various control signals may also be provided to the L3 for L3 processing.

[0283] In the transmission from the first communication device 450 to the second communication device 410, at the first communication device 450, the upper layer data packets are provided to the controller / processor 459 using the data source 467. The data source 467 represents all the protocol layers above the L2 layer. Similar to the transmission function at the second communication device 410 described in the transmission from the second communication device 410 to the first communication device 450, the controller / processor 459 implements header compression, encryption, packet segmentation and reordering, and multiplexing between logical and transport channels, and implements L2 layer functions for user plane and control plane. The controller / processor 459 is also responsible for the retransmission of lost packets and signaling to the second communication device 410. The transmit processor 468 performs modulation mapping and channel coding processing, and the multi-antenna transmit processor 457 performs digital multi-antenna spatial precoding, including codebook-based precoding and non-codebook-based precoding, and beamforming processing. Then, the transmit processor 468 modulates the generated spatial stream into a multi-carrier / single-carrier symbol stream, which is then provided to different antennas 452 via the transmitter 454 after analog precoding / beamforming operations in the multi-antenna transmit processor 457. Each transmitter 454 first converts the baseband symbol stream provided by the multi-antenna transmit processor 457 into a radio frequency symbol stream, and then provides it to the antenna 452.

[0284] In the transmission from the first communication device 450 to the second communication device 410, the functions at the second communication device 410 are similar to the reception functions at the first communication device 450 described in the transmission from the second communication device 410 to the first communication device 450. Each receiver 418 receives a radio frequency signal through its corresponding antenna 420, converts the received radio frequency signal into a baseband signal, and provides the baseband signal to the multi-antenna reception processor 472 and the reception processor 470. The reception processor 470 and the multi-antenna reception processor 472 jointly implement the functions of the L1 layer. The controller / processor 475 implements the L2 layer functions. The controller / processor 475 can be associated with a memory 476 that stores program codes and data. The memory 476 can be referred to as a computer-readable medium. In the transmission from the first communication device 450 to the second communication device 410, the controller / processor 475 provides multiplexing between transport and logical channels, packet reassembly, decryption, header decompression, control signal processing to recover the upper layer data packets from the first communication device 450. The upper layer data packets from the controller / processor 475 may be provided to the core network or all protocol layers above the L2 layer, and various control signals may also be provided to the core network or L3 for L3 processing.
