Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of communications, and in particular to a method, device, storage medium and electronic device for a terminal to report a flight path. Background Art

[0002] Drones have the advantages of fast movement and easy deployment, and have great potential in both civil and public applications. Thanks to the advancement of embedded systems and wireless communication technologies, the application of drones is not limited to military security, emergency rescue, etc., but also includes a variety of private or industrial scenarios such as aerial photography, precision agriculture and smart transportation. At present, cellular wireless networks are the best choice to support drone applications. The integration of drones with large-scale wireless networks can provide reliable communication links for typical services such as video streaming and effectively reduce operating costs.

[0003] However, today's commercial networks are designed and optimized around the experience of ground users, and targeted enhancements are still needed to address interference and mobility issues caused by drones.

[0004] The flight paths of many commercial drones are usually pre-planned and programmed in the drone. After the LTE network obtains the flight path plan, it can configure reserved resources in the cell suitable for handover to ensure higher quality of service QoS and reduce the probability of wireless link connection failure or handover failure. Since the flight path information includes waypoints and optional timestamps, the flight path report is a large report (usually more than one hundred bytes), and the network needs to be prepared to receive this large block of information.

[0005] The LTE stage only supports network polling, which has the disadvantage that the network does not know any changes in the drone's flight path between polling. To address this problem, the NR stage will introduce a flight path update mechanism. If the flight path of the drone is reported every time it is updated, the problem of frequent flight path reporting will occur.

[0006] With respect to the problem of frequent reporting of the above-mentioned flight paths, no effective solution has been proposed so far. Summary of the invention

[0052] Figure 1 The following is a flow chart of a method for a terminal to report a flight path according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 ,like Figure 1 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0054] Step S104, the terminal device receives a first configuration message from the network side, wherein the first configuration message carries trigger configuration information, and the trigger configuration information is used as a basis for reporting the flight path update indication;

[0055] Step S106, when the flight path update information meets the trigger configuration information, report the flight path update indication to the network side, wherein the flight path update information indicates the update status of the first flight path information to the second flight path information, and the flight path update indication is used to indicate to the network side that the second flight path information is available.

[0056] In an embodiment of the present invention, a terminal device reports first flight path information to a network side according to a request from the network side; the terminal device receives a first configuration message from the network side, wherein the first configuration message carries trigger configuration information, and the trigger configuration information is used as a basis for reporting a flight path update indication; when the flight path update information satisfies the trigger configuration information, a flight path update indication is reported to the network side, wherein the flight path update information indicates an update status of the first flight path information being updated to the second flight path information, and the flight path update indication is used to indicate to the network side that the second flight path information is available, thereby limiting the reporting timing of the flight path update indication by triggering the configuration information, avoiding frequent flight path update indications, and further solving the technical problem of frequent flight path reporting.

[0057] In the above step S102, the network side may be a 3GPP-based passing network.

[0058] In the above step S102, the network side includes multiple base stations, and the network side communicates with the terminal device through the base stations.

[0059] Optionally, when the terminal device accesses the network side for the first time, the terminal device can establish communication with the first base station on the network side, and then the terminal device reports the first flight path information to the first base station.

[0060] Optionally, the second base station has acquired the first flight path information during historical communication with the terminal device. Then, when the terminal device switches from the second base station on the network side to the first base station, the first base station can acquire the first flight path information recorded in the second base station.

[0061] In the above step S102, the first flight path information may be programmed into the terminal device in advance, controlled by an operator, or configured by USS / UTM.

[0062] In the above step S102, before reporting the first flight path information, the terminal device may send a flight path information available indication to the network side. When the flight path information available indication indicates that the first flight path information is available, the flight path information available indication parameter is set to "TRUE".

[0063] In the above step S102, the terminal device may be a terminal with a mobile attribute such as an aircraft, and the mobile attribute indicates that the terminal device moves during the communication process with the network side.

[0064] In the above step S102, the first flight path information represents a plurality of waypoints that the terminal device is expected to pass through during the movement, and each waypoint is used to represent the geographical location that is expected to be passed through, and the time information of arriving at the waypoint.

[0065] In the above step S104, the terminal device may configure the reporting basis for the terminal device to report the flight path update indication through the first configuration message on the network side.

[0066] In the above step S104, the first configuration message carries trigger configuration information, which may include multiple trigger rules, and the terminal device can determine whether to report the flight path update indication to the network side according to the trigger rules.

[0067] In the above step S106, the flight path update indication indicates that the second flight path information is available, and then the network side can obtain the updated second path information of the terminal device according to the flight path update indication.

[0068] In the above step S106, the flight path update indication may be carried by messages such as RRC access establishment complete, RRC access reconfiguration complete, RRC access reestablishment complete, RRC access recovery complete or UE assistance information.

[0069] Figure 2FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a terminal device reporting flight path information to a network side according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, the terminal device UE first reports to the network that its flight path information is available, and then reports the flight path information after receiving the flight path information request from the network. That is, the network side can only send relevant information after agreeing to the UE's report).

[0070] Optionally, the terminal device UE indicates its flight path information to the base station gNB on the network side through flightPathInfoAvailable. This IE can be carried and reported through RRCConnectionReconfigurationComplete, RRCConnectionReestablishmentComplete, RRCConnectionResumeComplete and RRCConnectionSetupComplete messages.

[0071] Optionally, the network side requests the flight path information from the UE via flightPathInfoReq, wherein the configuration information FlightPathInfoReportConfig is sent via the UEInformationRequest message. According to the network configuration, the UE reports the flight path information flightPathInfoReport via the message UEInformationResponse.

[0072] Optionally, during the communication between the terminal device and the network side, the terminal device can receive broadcast messages or radio resource control messages RRC messages that can be transmitted by the network side.

[0073] As an optional embodiment, the terminal device reports the first flight path information to the network side according to the request of the network side, including: the terminal device receives a first broadcast message or a first wireless resource control message RRC message sent by the network side, wherein the first broadcast message or the first RRC message is used to carry first indication information, and the first indication information indicates that the network side requests to obtain the first flight path information; when the first broadcast message or the first RRC message carries the first indication information, the terminal device responds to the first indication information and reports the first flight path information to the network side.

[0074] In the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention, the terminal device needs to report the first flight path information according to the request of the network side, and then the request of the network side for the first flight path information can be realized by carrying the first indication information in the first broadcast message or the first RRC message sent by the network side to the terminal device. Therefore, when the terminal device detects that the first broadcast message or the first wireless resource control message RRC message sent by the network side contains the first indication information, it reports the first flight path information to the network side to ensure that the network side can receive the first flight path information reported by the terminal device.

[0075] As an optional embodiment, the method also includes: when the first broadcast message or the first RRC message does not carry the first indication information, the terminal device sends a second indication information to the network side, wherein the second indication information indicates that the first flight path information is available; receiving a terminal information request message sent by the network side, wherein the terminal information request message carries a third indication information, and the third indication information is used to carry a second configuration message for configuring the first flight path information, and the third indication information indicates a request for the terminal device to report the first flight path information according to the second configuration message, and the second configuration message includes but is not limited to: configuring the maximum number of waypoints in the first flight path information, and configuring whether there is a corresponding timestamp for each waypoint in the first flight path information, and the timestamp is the time information at which the terminal device is expected to arrive at each waypoint; in response to the third indication information, reporting the first flight path information to the network side.

[0076] In the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention, when the first broadcast message or the first RRC message does not carry the first indication information, it means that the network side has not requested to obtain the first flight path information. The reason for this situation may be that the network side does not know whether the first flight path information of the terminal device is available. Therefore, the terminal device needs to report the second indication information to the network side to inform the network side that the first flight path information of the terminal device is available. Then, when the network side knows that the first flight path information of the terminal device is available, it can send the third indication information to the terminal device to request to obtain the first flight path information of the terminal device.

[0078] Optionally, the time information includeTimeStamp can be an enumeration value. If it does not exist, it means that the terminal device does not need to report the time information. If it is "TRUE", it means that the terminal device needs to report the time information corresponding to the waypoint.

[0079] Optionally, the terminal information request message may also be a broadcast message or an RRC message sent by the network side to the terminal device.

[0080] Optionally, the second configuration message is used to configure the information form or information content of the first flight path information, or to prepare the information form or information content of the first flight path information reported to the network side.

[0084] Optionally, the path information index format can indicate the number of waypoints allowed to be reported in the reporting information content of the first flight path information, whether the reporting content carries the timestamp corresponding to each waypoint, and whether the reporting content carries the path information index corresponding to each waypoint, or any combination of the above-mentioned reporting contents.

[0089] In the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention, the first configuration message can be carried in the second broadcast message or the second wireless resource control RRC message communicated between the terminal device and the network side. The terminal device receives the first configuration message and can configure the triggering rules for reporting the flight path update indication according to the first configuration message.

[0090] As an optional embodiment, the method also includes: configuring trigger rules for the terminal device according to the trigger configuration information, wherein the trigger rules include but are not limited to at least one of the following: the geographical location corresponding to the updated waypoint is consistent with the target geographical area, the number of waypoints of the updated waypoint exceeds a preset number range, the update time of the timestamp corresponding to the updated waypoint exceeds a preset time range, the change distance of the geographical location corresponding to the updated waypoint exceeds a preset distance range, the preset number range includes the proportion of the number of waypoints or the number threshold value of the number of waypoints, the preset time range includes the proportion of the update time or the time threshold value, the preset distance range includes the proportion of the update distance or the distance threshold value, and the updated waypoint represents a waypoint where there is a difference between the first flight path information and the second flight path information.

[0091] In the above embodiment of the present invention, one trigger rule or a combination of multiple trigger rules may be selected from multiple trigger rules according to the instruction of the first configuration message to implement the configuration of the trigger rule.

[0092] Optionally, the update time may be determined according to the difference between the timestamps of the updated waypoint before and after the update.

[0093] Optionally, the change distance may be determined based on the difference in geographical locations of the updated waypoint before and after the update.

[0094] As an optional embodiment, the method also includes: detecting the number of trigger rules triggered by the flight path update information, wherein the flight path update information includes: updated waypoints for updating the geographic location relative to the first flight path information, updated waypoints for updating the timestamp, and added or deleted updated waypoints and corresponding timestamps; when the trigger number indicates that the flight path update information satisfies at least one trigger rule, determining the reporting basis for satisfying the flight path update indication.

[0095] In the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention, the flight path update information indicates the difference in waypoints between the first flight path information and the second flight path information, which can be specifically manifested as: added or deleted waypoints, or added or deleted time stamps corresponding to waypoints, or changed the geographical location of the waypoint while the time stamp remains unchanged, or changed the time stamp of the waypoint while the geographical location of the waypoint remains unchanged, or changed both the geographical location of the waypoint and the time stamp of the waypoint, or any combination of the above changes. Then, when the flight path update information indicates that the first flight path information is updated to the second flight path information, and at least one triggering rule is satisfied, the terminal device is triggered to report the flight path update indication to the network side, thereby triggering the flight path update indication.

[0096] As an optional embodiment, reporting a flight path update indication to a network side includes: when the reporting basis for the flight path update indication is met, detecting a third configuration message of a terminal device, wherein the third configuration message indicates whether the terminal device supports a path information indexing function; when the third configuration message indicates that the terminal device supports the path information indexing function, adjusting the path information index of the updated waypoint from a preset value to a valid value; and reporting the flight path update indication to the network side, wherein the flight path update indication is based on the path information index set to a valid value.

[0097] In the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention, the third configuration message can be pre-configured in the terminal device for detecting whether the terminal device supports the path information indexing function. Furthermore, when it is detected based on the third configuration information that the terminal device supports the path information indexing function, the flight path update indication can be determined according to the path information index, thereby more clearly informing the network side of the changed update waypoints.

[0098] As an optional embodiment, adjusting the path information index of the updated waypoint from a preset value to a valid value includes: when the updated waypoint represents a difference between the waypoint in the first flight path information and the waypoint in the second flight path information, adjusting the waypoint index of the updated waypoint from a preset value to a valid value; when the updated waypoint represents a difference between the timestamps corresponding to the waypoint in the first flight path information and the second flight path information, adjusting the timestamp index of the updated waypoint from a preset value to a valid value; wherein the path information index includes a waypoint index and a timestamp index, and the flight path update indication is determined based on the waypoint index, or based on the waypoint index and the timestamp index.

[0099] In the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention, the path information index can represent the position of each waypoint in the flight path information (such as the first flight path information and the second flight path information). When the waypoint in the flight path information changes, the value of the corresponding path information index can be changed, and then the updated waypoint can be quickly determined based on the path information index.

[0100] Optionally, the path information index includes a waypoint index and a timestamp index, the waypoint index may indicate whether the geographical location of the waypoint has been updated, and the timestamp index may indicate whether the timestamp of the waypoint has been updated.

[0101] Optionally, the flight path update indication may be determined according to the waypoint index, indicating that the flight path update indication only cares about the update of the geographical location of the waypoint, but does not care about the update of the timestamp.

[0102] Optionally, the flight path update indication may be determined according to the waypoint index and the timestamp index, indicating that the flight path update indication is concerned with the update of the geographical location of the waypoint but is not concerned with the update of the timestamp.

[0103] Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a path information index according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 As shown, the path information index can represent a path index or a timestamp index. "1" represents a valid value and "0" represents an invalid value. Figure 3 In the case of representing the path index, it means that the geographical locations of the 6th to 15th waypoints are updated, that is, the geographical locations of the 6th to 15th waypoints are updated. Figure 3 In the case of representing a timestamp index, it means that the timestamps of the 6th to 15th waypoints are all updated, that is, the geographical locations of the 6th to 15th waypoints are updated.

[0104] As an optional embodiment, the method also includes: when the third configuration message indicates that the terminal device supports the path information indexing function, receiving a path update request from the network side, wherein the path update request includes: an indication of obtaining a first request for second flight path information, and / or an indication of obtaining a second request for flight path update information; according to the path update request, reporting a path information message, wherein, when the path update request is a first request, the path information message is determined according to the path information index of the second flight path information, and in the case of a path update request, it is determined according to the path information index of the flight path update information.

[0105] Optionally, upon receiving a flight path update indication, the network side may send a path update request to the terminal device.

[0106] In the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention, the path update request indicates that the network side needs to obtain the path information message in the terminal device to know the updated second flight path information, and then the terminal device can report the path information message to the network side based on the path update request, so that the network side can know the updated second flight path information of the terminal device.

[0107] Optionally, in the historical communication process between the terminal device and the network side, the network side may have already known the first flight path information of the terminal device. Then, when the network side needs to know the second flight path information, in order to reduce the message volume of the path information message reported by the terminal device, only the difference between the first flight path information and the second flight path information may be reflected in the path information message. Then, in order to accurately know the position of the difference in the entire flight path information, the path information message may be determined according to the path information index.

[0108] Optionally, the terminal device can determine, based on the path update request from the network side, whether the network side requests a path information message that can reflect the complete second flight path information; or whether it only needs to obtain a path information message that can reflect the difference part.

[0109] Optionally, when the path update request indicates a request for a path information message that can reflect the difference part, it is necessary to determine whether the terminal device supports the path information indexing function. When it is determined that the terminal device supports the path information indexing function, the path information message that can reflect the difference part can be determined based on the path information index; when it is determined that the terminal device does not support the path information indexing function, the terminal device needs to report a path information message that can reflect the complete second flight path information to the network side.

[0110] As an optional embodiment, the method also includes: receiving a path update request from the network side, wherein the path update request includes: an indication of obtaining a first request for second flight path information, and / or an indication of obtaining a second request for flight path update information; based on the path update request, reporting a path information message, wherein the path information message is determined based on the second flight path information or based on the flight path update information.

[0111] In the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention, the path update request on the network side indicates the message type of the path information message requested by the network side, and further, in the case where the path update request is a first request, it indicates that the path information message required by the network side can reflect the complete second flight path information, and then a path information message can be generated according to the second flight path information for reporting; in the case where the path update request is a second request, it indicates that the path information message required by the network side only needs to reflect the first flight path information and the second flight path information, and then a path information message can be generated according to the flight path update information, so that the network side can determine the changed node, the changed content of the changed node, and the position of the changed node in the entire path information according to the path information message, and then modify the first flight path information stored on the network side to the second flight path information according to the path information message, thereby realizing the determination of the second flight path information.

[0112] As an optional embodiment, reporting a flight path update indication to the network side includes: detecting whether the terminal device is pre-configured with a preset period; if the terminal device is pre-configured with a preset period, checking whether the first flight path information is updated according to the preset period; when it is detected that the first flight path information is updated to the second flight path information, the terminal device reports the flight path update indication to the network side.

[0113] In the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention, after the terminal device reports the flight path update indication to the network side, if the network side does not request the second flight path information, it means that the flight path update indication may be lost during the transmission process. In order to ensure that the network side can know the path update status of the terminal device in time, the terminal device needs to continuously report the flight path update indication to the network side according to the preset period.

[0114] Optionally, if the terminal device continuously monitors whether the first flight path information is updated to the second flight path information, it is necessary to occupy the resources of the terminal device, resulting in a waste of resources. To solve this problem, the flight path information update detection can be performed according to a preset period pre-configured by the terminal device, and when an update is detected, the flight path update indication is reported to the network side according to the preset period.

[0115] As an optional embodiment, this embodiment mainly describes a switching process of an aerial UE (ie, a terminal device), in which the target cell targetgNB (such as the first base station) has obtained the flight path information (such as the first flight path information) of the UE through information forwarding of the source cell sourcegNB (such as the second base station), wherein the aerial UE does not have the capability of incrementally reporting the flight path information.

[0116] Optionally, in the flight path information, the time information includeTimeStamp corresponding to the waypoint can be an enumeration value. If it does not exist, it means that the terminal device does not need to report the time information. If it is "TRUE", it means that the terminal device needs to report the time information corresponding to the waypoint.

[0117] Optionally, the maximum number of waypoints maxWayPointNumber in the flight path information is an integer value, which can be any integer between 1 and maxWayPoint-r18; maxWayPoint-r18 is the maximum number of waypoints supported by the protocol, usually 20.

[0118] Optionally, when the terminal device UE does not have the capability of incrementally reporting the flight path information (for reporting the path information message determined according to the flight path update information), the process of reporting the flight path update indication includes the following steps:

[0119] 1) UE receives the RRC reconfiguration message from sourcegNB and reads the measurement configuration information;

[0120] 2) The UE sends an RRC reconfiguration complete message carrying a flight path available indication to the sourcegNB;

[0121] 3) The UE receives the flight path request message flightPathInfoReq sent by the sourcegNB, where the flight path request message includes the following information:

[0122] a) Configuration information includeTimeStamp = "TRUE";

[0123] b) The maximum number of waypoints in the flight path information maxWayPointNumber = "20";

[0124] 4) The UE performs measurements based on the configuration information of the source gNB and sends a measurement report to the source gNB.

[0125] 5) The source gNB executes the target cell decision, sends a handover request to the target gNB, and receives a handover confirmation response from the target gNB, i.e., the target gNB agrees to the handover; forwards control and service data including the flight path information and UE capabilities of the UE;

[0126] 6) The UE receives the RRC reconfiguration message sent by the source gNB, determines the random access resource according to the handover parameters configured therein, obtains the cell identity of the target gNB and the flight path update trigger condition configured by the network; the trigger condition is configured as a geographical area, including the upper limit of longitude, the lower limit of accuracy, the upper limit of latitude and the lower limit of latitude;

[0127] 7) After the UE completes the RRC handover reconfiguration, the UE sends an RRC reconfiguration complete message to the target gNB, which includes an indication that the flight path information is available;

[0128] 8) The UE receives a flight path plan update from the controller, for example, the geographic locations of waypoints 6 to 20 are updated;

[0129] 9) The UE performs a geographic area determination. For example, if the UE determines that the latest waypoints 6 to 14 are in the configured geographic area, the UE sets bits 6 to 14 in the index to 1 (i.e., valid values), and the other bits remain to 0 (i.e., invalid values), and sends a flight path information update indication (such as a flight path update indication) containing the index to the target gNB through terminal assistance information.

[0130] Optionally, the UE receives a report update request sent by the network and reports the updated complete flight path information to the source gNB; the flight path information includes timeStamp and wayPointLocation, where the field timeStamp is set to the time point when the UE plans to arrive at each waypoint, and wayPointLocation includes the future position coordinates of the UE when the UE is flying in the air, and each waypoint represents the geographical location that the UE plans to arrive at.

[0131] As an optional embodiment, this embodiment mainly describes the process of performing initial access after the aerial UE is powered on, configuring the flight path information trigger conditions of the target cell and updating the UE flight path, and performing incremental update reporting according to the configuration conditions.

[0132] Optionally, when the terminal device UE does not have the capability of incrementally reporting the flight path information (for reporting the path information message determined according to the second flight path information), the process of reporting the flight path update indication includes the following steps:

[0133] 1) The UE searches the frequency space, obtains the signal strength of the frequency higher than the pre-configured RSSI threshold, obtains the synchronization signal, and calculates the PCI of the target cell;

[0134] 2) After the UE determines the SSB, it parses the PBCH channel to obtain the MIB broadcast message and time-frequency domain information of the target cell;

[0135] 3) The UE decodes the content carried in the PDSCH, obtains the SIB1 broadcast message, reads the configuration information including the flight path update reporting trigger condition, and sends an RRC access establishment complete message including the available flight path information to the target gNB; in this case, the trigger condition is the neighbor cell ID;

[0136] 4) The UE receives the flight path reporting request message from the gNB, in which the maximum number of waypoints is configured as 20, and the configuration does not need to carry a timestamp: the configuration information only includes the maximum number of waypoints in the flight path information maxWayPointNumber = "15";

[0137] 5) UE reports the complete flight path information, excluding the timeStamp field, only wayPointLocation;

[0138] 6) The UE receives a flight path plan update from the controller, for example, the geographic locations of waypoints 6 to 20 are updated;

[0139] 7) The UE performs trigger condition judgment. For example, if it is determined that the latest waypoints 6 to 15 are within the coverage of the neighboring cell, the UE sets the 6th to 15th bits in the index to 1, and the other bits remain 0. The UE sends a flight path information update indication to the target gNB through terminal assistance information;

[0140] 8) The UE receives the incremental reporting update request sent by the network and reports the updated geographic locations and corresponding timestamp information of the 6th to 15th waypoints to the source gNB.
