Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram illustrating an embodiment of the radio protocol architecture for the user plane 350 and the control plane 300. Figure 3The radio protocol architecture of the control plane 300 of the UE and the 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. Layer 1 will be referred to as PHY 301 in this document. Layer 2 (L2 layer) 305 is above PHY 301 and is responsible for the link between the UE and the gNB through PHY 301. Layer 2 305 includes a MAC (Medium Access Control) sublayer 302, an RLC (Radio Link Control) sublayer 303, and a PDCP (Packet Data Convergence Protocol) sublayer 304, and these sublayers terminate at the gNB on the network side.

The L2 layer 355 in the user plane 350 also includes an SDAP (Service Data Adaptation Protocol) sublayer 356, and the SDAP sublayer 356 is responsible for the mapping between QoS flows and data radio bearers to support service diversity.The radio protocol architecture of the UE in the user plane 350 may include some or all of the protocol sub-layers of the SDAP sub-layer 356, PDCP sub-layer 354, RLC sub-layer 353, and MAC sub-layer 352 at the L2 layer.

[0237] Example 4
[0238] Example 4 illustrates a schematic diagram of the hardware modules of a communication device according to an embodiment of the present application, as shown in the appendix Figure 4 as follows. Figure 4 It is a block diagram of a first communication device 450 and a second communication device 410 that communicate with each other in an access network.
[0239] The first communication device 450 includes a controller / processor 459, a memory 460, a data source 467, a transmitting processor 468, a receiving processor 456, a multi-antenna transmitting processor 457, a multi-antenna receiving processor 458, a transmitter / receiver 454, and an antenna 452.
[0240] The second communication device 410 includes a controller / processor 475, a memory 476, a data source 477, a receiving processor 470, a transmitting processor 416, a multi-antenna receiving processor 472, a multi-antenna transmitting processor 471, a transmitter / receiver 418, and an antenna 420.
[0241] In the transmission from the second communication device 410 to the first communication device 450, at the second communication device 410, upper layer data packets from the core network or from the data source 477 are provided to the controller / processor 475. The core network and the data source 477 represent all 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 for the first communication device 450 based on various priority metrics. The controller / processor 475 is also responsible for 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 encoding and interleaving to facilitate FEC (Forward Error Correction) at the second communication device 410, and mapping of signal constellations based on various modulation schemes (e.g., BPSK (Binary Phase Shift Keying), QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Keying), M-PSK (M-Phase Shift Keying), M-QAM (M-Quadrature Amplitude Modulation)). The multi-antenna transmit processor 471 performs digital space precoding on the encoded and modulated symbols, including codebook-based precoding and non-codebook-based precoding, and beamforming processing, to generate one or more spatial streams. The transmit processor 416 then maps each spatial stream to subcarriers, multiplexes with reference signals (e.g., pilots) in the time domain and / or frequency domain, and then uses IFFT (Inverse Fast Fourier Transform) to generate a physical channel carrying a time-domain multi-carrier symbol stream. Subsequently, the multi-antenna transmit processor 471 performs transmit analog precoding / beamforming operations 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 different antennas 420.
[0242] 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 signals via its respective antenna 452. Each receiver 454 recovers the information modulated onto the radio frequency carrier and converts the radio frequency stream into a baseband multi-carrier symbol stream that is provided to the receive processor 456. The receive processor 456 and the multi-antenna receive processor 458 perform various signal processing functions of the L1 layer. The multi-antenna receive processor 458 performs receive analog precoding / beamforming operations on the baseband multi-carrier symbol stream from the receivers 454. The receive processor 456 uses the FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) to convert the baseband multi-carrier symbol stream after the receive analog precoding / beamforming operations 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 receive processor 456, where the reference signal will be used for channel estimation, and the data signal recovers any spatial streams destined for the first communication device 450 after multi-antenna detection in the multi-antenna receive processor 458. The symbols on each spatial stream are demodulated and recovered in the receive processor 456, and soft decisions are generated. Subsequently, the receive processor 456 decodes and de-interleaves the soft decisions to recover the upper layer data and control signals transmitted by the second communication device 410 on the physical channel. Subsequently, the upper layer data and control signals are provided to the controller / processor 459. The controller / processor 459 performs the functions of the L2 layer. The controller / processor 459 may be associated with a memory 460 that stores program code 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 higher layer data packets from the second communication device 410. Subsequently, the upper layer data packets are provided to all protocol layers above the L2 layer. Various control signals may also be provided to the L3 for L3 processing.
[0243] In the transmission from the first communication device 450 to the second communication device 410, at the first communication device 450, an upper layer data packet is provided to the controller / processor 459 using the data source 467. The data source 467 represents all protocol layers above the L2 layer. Similar to the transmit function described at the second communication device 410 in the transmission from the second communication device 410 to the first communication device 450, the controller / processor 459 performs header compression, encryption, packet segmentation and reordering, and multiplexing between logical and transport channels, and implements L2 layer functions for the user plane and the control plane. The controller / processor 459 is also responsible for retransmitting lost packets and signaling to the second communication device 410. The transmit processor 468 performs modulation mapping and channel coding processing. The multi-antenna transmit processor 457 performs digital multi-antenna spatial precoding, including codebook-based precoding and non-codebook-based precoding, and beamforming processing. Subsequently, the transmit processor 468 modulates the generated spatial streams into multi-carrier / single-carrier symbol streams, and after passing through the analog precoding / beamforming operation in the multi-antenna transmit processor 457, provides them to different antennas 452 via the transmitter 454. 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.
[0244] 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 receive function described at the first communication device 450 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 receive processor 472 and the receive processor 470. The receive processor 470 and the multi-antenna receive processor 472 jointly implement the L1 layer functions. The controller / processor 475 implements the L2 layer functions. The controller / processor 475 may be associated with a memory 476 that stores program code and data. The memory 476 may 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 demultiplexing between transport and logical channels, packet reassembly, decryption, header decompression, and control signal processing to recover the upper layer data packet from the first communication device 450. The upper layer data packet 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.
