[0145] FIG1 is a schematic diagram illustrating the architecture of a communication system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG1 , a communication system 100 includes a terminal 101 and a network device 102 .

[0146] In some embodiments, the terminal 101 includes, for example, a mobile phone, a wearable device, an Internet of Things device, a car with communication function, a smart car, a tablet computer, a computer with wireless transceiver function, a virtual reality (VR) terminal device, an augmented reality (AR) terminal device, a wireless terminal device in industrial control, a wireless terminal device in self-driving, a wireless terminal device in remote medical surgery, a wireless terminal device in a smart grid, a wireless terminal device in transportation safety, a wireless terminal device in a smart city, and at least one of a wireless terminal device in a smart home, but is not limited thereto.

[0147] In some embodiments, the network device 102 is, for example, a node or device that accesses the terminal to a wireless network. The access network device may include an evolved NodeB (eNB), a next generation evolved NodeB (ng-eNB), a next generation NodeB (gNB), a node B (NB), a home node B (HNB), a home evolved nodeB (HeNB), a wireless backhaul device, a radio network controller (RNC), a base station controller (BSC), a base transceiver station (BTS), a base band unit (BBU), a mobile switching center, a base station in a 6G communication system, an open base station (Open RAN), a cloud base station (Cloud RAN), a base station in other communication systems, and at least one of an access node in a Wi-Fi system, but is not limited thereto.

[0148] It can be understood that the communication system described in the embodiment of the present disclosure is for the purpose of more clearly illustrating the technical solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure, and does not constitute a limitation on the technical solution proposed in the embodiment of the present disclosure. Ordinary technicians in this field can know that with the evolution of the system architecture and the emergence of new business scenarios, the technical solution proposed in the embodiment of the present disclosure is also applicable to similar technical problems.

[0149] The following embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied to the communication system 100 shown in FIG1 , or a portion thereof, but are not limited thereto. The entities shown in FIG1 are illustrative only. The communication system may include all or part of the entities shown in FIG1 , or may include other entities outside of FIG1 . The number and form of the entities are arbitrary, and the entities may be physical or virtual. The connection relationships between the entities are illustrative only. The entities may be connected or disconnected, and the connection may be in any manner, including direct or indirect, wired or wireless.

[0150] The embodiments of the present disclosure can be applied to Long Term Evolution (LTE), LTE-Advanced (LTE-A), LTE-Beyond (LTE-B), SUPER 3G, IMT-Advanced, 4th generation mobile communication system (4G), 5th generation mobile communication system (5G), 5G new radio (NR), future radio access (FRA), new radio access technology (RAT), new radio (NR), new radio access (NX), future generation radio access (FX), Global System for Mobile communications (GSM (registered trademark)), CDMA2000, Ultra Mobile Broadband (UMB), IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi (registered trademark)), IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX (registered trademark)), IEEE 802.20, Ultra-WideBand (UWB), Bluetooth (registered trademark), Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) networks, Device-to-Device (D2D) systems, Machine-to-Machine (M2M) systems, Internet of Things (IoT) systems, Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X), systems utilizing other communication methods, and next-generation systems based on and extending these methods. Furthermore, multiple systems may be combined (for example, a combination of LTE or LTE-A with 5G).

[0151] In some embodiments, the terminal is configured with LP-WUR and MR, and receives the LP-WUS signal sent by the network device through the LP-WUR. The LP-WUS signal is used to instruct the MR of the terminal to switch between any two sleep states, and can also instruct the terminal to wake up or not. If the terminal receives the LP-WUS signal, the LP-WUS signal is used to instruct the terminal to change to the awake state, and the main radio MR is turned on to receive and process downlink and / or uplink signals; if the terminal does not receive the LP-WUS signal, or the LP-WUS signal instructs the terminal not to wake up, the terminal will maintain the current sleep state of the main radio MR. The sleep states of MR include 4 types: ultra-deep sleep, deep sleep, light sleep, and micro sleep. The sleep depth of each of the above sleep states is: ultra-deep sleep > deep sleep > light sleep > light sleep.

[0152] In some embodiments, LP-WUR has two working modes, one is always ON (normally open mode) and the other is duty cycle (duty cycle open mode). For the always ON mode, the LP-WUR of the terminal is always in the on state, and the base station can send LP-WUS to wake up the terminal at any time. For the duty cycle mode, the terminal only turns on LP-WUR in the listening time window of LP-WUS according to the preset mechanism, and the base station can only send LP-WUS to wake up the terminal within this time period. In addition, depending on the type of supported signals, the LP-WUR in the terminal can be divided into two categories, and LP-WUR can support at least any one type: a receiver that only supports envelope detection (Envelope Detection) of OOK (On-and-Off Keying) symbols of LP-WUS, hereinafter referred to as OOK LR; a receiver that supports detection of time domain or frequency domain sequences carried by OOK symbols corresponding to LP-WUS, hereinafter referred to as OFDM LR. For example, the link performance of OFDM LR is better than the link performance of OOK LR.

[0153] In some embodiments, when detecting an LP-WUS signal, the terminal must first synchronize the time and frequency domains using a synchronization signal to obtain the time-frequency position of the LP-WUS transmission from the network device. The synchronization signal may be a Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS) and / or a Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS), or a Low Power Synchronization Signal (LP-SS).

[0154] In some embodiments, the network device can carry LP-WUS information using ASK (Amplitude Shift Keying) modulation, where OOK modulation is a special case of ASK modulation. Taking OOK as an example, the OOK ON symbol and the OOK OFF symbol represent different bits. For example, OOK ON represents bit 1, and OOK OFF represents bit 0. Optionally, the LP-WUS information can be encoded by mapping each coded bit to an OOK symbol. For example, Manchester coding is used for OOK modulation. For 1 / 2 Manchester coding, information bit 1 can be mapped to 2 coded bits; for 1 / 4 Manchester coding, information bit 1 can be mapped to 4 coded bits; for 1 / 8 Manchester coding, information bit 1 can be mapped to 8 coded bits; and for 1 / 16 Manchester coding, information bit 1 can be mapped to 16 coded bits. For example, the wake-up signal can also be carried by the time domain or frequency domain sequence carried by each OOK symbol.

[0155] In some embodiments, there are multiple ways to carry information in the LP-WUS. The wake-up signal can be carried through OOK modulation or through a time domain / frequency domain sequence carried by the LP-WUS symbol. For the latter method, the LP-WUS preamble can be used as a time-frequency domain resource to carry the time domain / frequency domain sequence. How to carry information through the time domain / frequency domain sequence in the LP-WUS preamble symbol to improve the detection performance of OOK LR and OFDM LR is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.

[0156] FIG2 is an interactive schematic diagram of a communication method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG2 , the communication method according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is performed by a terminal and a network device. The method includes:

[0157] Step S2101: The network device sends a wake-up signal to the terminal.

[0158] In some embodiments, the wake-up signal includes a first resource, and the first resource carries the wake-up signal.

[0159] In some embodiments, the wake-up signal includes at least one of a preamble, data, and a check code. For example, in one embodiment, the wake-up signal includes a preamble, data, and a check code. In one embodiment, the wake-up signal includes a preamble and data. In one embodiment, the wake-up signal includes any one of a preamble, data, and a check code.

[0160] In some embodiments, the duration of the wake-up signal is the first duration, the duration of the preamble is the second duration, the duration of the data is the third duration, and the duration of the check code is the fourth duration.

[0161] The second duration is less than or equal to the first duration;

[0162] The third duration is less than or equal to the first duration;

[0163] The fourth duration is less than or equal to the first duration.

[0164] In some embodiments, the first duration, the second duration, the third duration, and the fourth duration are determined by any of the following methods:

[0165] Determined by first protocol information;

[0166] determining, based on first information sent by the network device, that the first information is semi-static configuration information;

[0167] It is determined according to the second information sent by the network device that the second information is dynamic configuration information.

[0168] For example, in this embodiment, the network device periodically sends a wake-up signal to the terminal, and the duration of the wake-up signal is a first duration D. The wake-up machine configured in the terminal needs to receive the wake-up signal within the first duration D of the time period. The first duration D of the wake-up signal can be predefined by the protocol, or can be pre-configured to the terminal by the network device through semi-static configuration, or can be dynamically indicated by the network device through configuration information. The wake-up signal in this embodiment includes a preamble, and the duration of the preamble is a second duration d1, wherein the second duration d1 can be predefined by the protocol, or can be semi-statically configured by the network device, or can be dynamically indicated by the network device, and the second duration d1 is less than or equal to the first duration D. The wake-up signal includes data, and the duration of the data is a third duration d2. The third duration d2 can be predefined by the protocol, or can be semi-statically configured by the network device, or can be dynamically indicated by the network device, and the third duration d2 is less than or equal to the first duration D. The wake-up signal includes a check code, the duration of which is a fourth duration d3. The fourth duration d3 can be predefined by the protocol, semi-statically configured by the network device, or dynamically indicated by the network device, and the fourth duration d3 is not greater than the first duration D.

[0169] In some embodiments, the first resource includes at least one of the following:

[0170] A first symbol, the first symbol is an on-off keying OOK modulation symbol;

[0171] The first sequence is a time domain sequence or a frequency domain sequence.

[0172] For example, in this embodiment, to prevent the impact of other interference signals on the wake-up signal during communication between the network device and the terminal, a first resource is used to carry the wake-up signal. The first resource can be an on-off keying (OOK) modulation symbol. For example, bit 1 represents OOK ON and bit 0 represents OOK OFF. The wake-up signal is determined to be wake-up state information or sleep state information based on the OOK modulation symbol. If the OOK modulation symbol is OOK ON, the terminal changes from the sleep state to the wake-up state based on the wake-up signal carried by the first resource; if the OOK modulation symbol is OOK OFF, the terminal changes from the wake-up state to the sleep state based on the wake-up signal carried by the first resource. The first resource can also be a first sequence. In this embodiment, the wake-up signal is carried by a time domain sequence or a frequency domain sequence. The first resource can also be a first sequence and a first symbol. For example, the wake-up signal can include multiple parts, such as one or more of a preamble, data, and a check code. The first sequence and / or the first symbol are used to carry one or more parts of the wake-up signal. For example, the first sequence carries the preamble in the wake-up signal, and the first symbol carries the data in the wake-up signal.

[0173] In some embodiments, the wake-up signal includes a preamble, and within the second duration of the preamble, the first symbol and / or the first sequence carries the wake-up signal. For example, in this embodiment, the wake-up signal sent by the network device includes a preamble, and within the second duration corresponding to the preamble, the wake-up signal is carried by the first symbol or the first sequence. For a terminal that supports the first symbol or the first sequence, the wake-up signal can be determined based on the preamble within the duration d1, without having to parse the wake-up signal within the duration D-d1, thereby improving the wake-up efficiency of the terminal.

[0174] Optionally, in some embodiments, the difference between the first duration and the second duration is the remaining duration, and the wake-up signal is carried within the remaining duration, and the remaining duration is the third duration, or the remaining duration is the third duration plus the fourth duration. For example, the information carried in the D-d1 time period is W, and the D-d1 time period can be the third duration of the data duration. At this time, the wake-up signal W is carried by data in the D-d1 time period. For a terminal that does not support the first symbol or the first sequence, if no wake-up signal is detected in the d1 time period, the wake-up signal carried by the data can be identified by detecting the data in the D-d1 time period, and the state can be changed; or the D-d1 time period is the sum of the third duration of the data duration and the fourth duration of the check code duration, that is, D-d1=d2+d3. At this time, the wake-up signal is carried by data and the check code in the D-d1 time period.

[0175] In some embodiments, the wake-up signal includes a preamble. During the second duration of the preamble, the first symbol or the first sequence carries first subset information, which is a subset of the wake-up signal. For example, in this embodiment, the wake-up signal includes multiple partial information, and the wake-up signal includes a preamble. During the second duration d1 of the preamble, the first symbol or the first sequence carries first subset information A, which is a subset of the wake-up signal W. That is, the preamble carries a subset A of the wake-up signal, which can be carried by the first symbol or the first sequence.

[0176] Optionally, in some embodiments, the difference between the first duration and the second duration is the remaining duration, and the second subset information is carried within the remaining duration, the second subset information is a subset of the wake-up signal, the second subset information plus the first subset information is the wake-up signal, and the remaining duration is the third duration, or the remaining duration is the third duration plus the fourth duration. In this embodiment, within the second duration d1 of the wake-up signal preamble, the terminal obtains the first subset information A of the wake-up signal by detecting the first symbol or the first sequence, and then, within the remaining D-d1 time period, obtains the second subset information WA of the wake-up signal by detecting the data and / or the check code, and combines the first subset information A and the second subset information WA to obtain the wake-up signal of the terminal.

[0177] For example, the second subset information WA is carried within the remaining duration of D-d1, the second subset information WA is a subset of the wake-up signal W, and the sum of the second subset information WA and the first subset information A is the wake-up signal W. The definition of the remaining duration D-d1 is the same as that in the above embodiment, and you can refer to the above embodiment and will not repeat it here.

[0178] In some embodiments, the wake-up signal includes a preamble. During a second duration of the preamble, the first sequence carries first subset information, which is a subset of the wake-up signal. For example, in this embodiment, during a second duration d1 corresponding to the preamble, the first sequence carries first subset information A, which is a subset of the wake-up signal W.

[0179] Optionally, in some embodiments, the difference between the first duration and the second duration is the remaining duration. During the remaining duration, the first symbol carries the wake-up signal, the first sequence carries the second subset information, the second subset information is a subset of the wake-up signal, the second subset information plus the first subset information is the wake-up signal, and the remaining duration is the third duration, or the remaining duration is the third duration plus the fourth duration. In this embodiment, during the remaining duration, the terminal can detect the wake-up signal based on the first symbol, and can also detect the first sequence to obtain the second subset information WA, and combine the first subset information A with the second subset information WA to obtain the wake-up signal of the terminal. That is, in this embodiment, for a terminal that supports sequence detection and symbol detection, the symbol can be detected in the D-d1 time period to obtain the wake-up signal, and the first subset information A can be detected in the d1 time period, and the second subset information WA can be obtained in the D-d1 time period. The first subset information is combined with the second subset information to obtain the wake-up signal.

[0180] For example, within the time range D-d1, the first symbol is used to carry the wake-up signal W, the first sequence carries the second subset information WA, the sum of the second subset information WA and the first subset information A is the wake-up signal W, and the definition of the remaining duration D-d1 is the same as that in the above embodiment, and you can refer to the above embodiment and will not repeat it here.

[0181] In some embodiments, the wake-up signal includes a preamble, and within the second duration of the preamble, the first sequence carries the first subset information, and the first subset information is a subset of the wake-up signal. The difference between the first duration and the second duration is the remaining duration, and within the remaining duration, the first symbol carries the second subset information, the first sequence carries the second subset information, the second subset information is a subset of the wake-up signal, the second subset information plus the first subset information is the wake-up signal, and the remaining duration is the third duration, or the remaining duration is the third duration plus the fourth duration. For example, in this embodiment, the d1 time period of the preamble uses the first sequence to carry the first subset information A, and the first subset information A is a subset of the wake-up signal W. In the D-d1 time period, the first symbol is used to carry the second subset information WA, or the first sequence is used to carry the second subset information WA. The definition of the remaining duration D-d1 is the same as that in the above embodiment, and can be referred to the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0182] In some embodiments, the wake-up signal includes a preamble, and the first sequence carries the wake-up signal during the second duration d1 of the preamble. For example, the wake-up signal in this embodiment includes a preamble, and the first sequence carries the wake-up signal during the second duration d1 of the preamble.

[0183] Optionally, in some embodiments, the difference between the first duration and the second duration is the remaining duration. During the remaining duration, the first symbol carries the wake-up signal, the first sequence carries the wake-up signal, and the remaining duration is the third duration, or the remaining duration is the third duration plus the fourth duration. For example, during the D-d1 time period, the first symbol carries the wake-up signal W, the first sequence carries the wake-up signal W, and the definition of the remaining duration D-d1 is the same as in the above embodiment, and can be referred to the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0184] In some embodiments, the wake-up signal includes a preamble. During the second duration of the preamble, the first sequence carries first subset information, the first subset information is a subset of the wake-up signal, the difference between the first duration and the second duration is the remaining duration, and during the remaining duration, the first sequence carries second subset information, the first symbol carries third subset information, the second subset information and the third subset information are both subsets of the wake-up signal, the third subset information, the second subset information, and the first subset information constitute the wake-up signal, and the remaining duration is the third duration, or the remaining duration is the third duration plus the fourth duration. In this embodiment, the terminal supports symbol detection and sequence detection. In the d1 time period, the terminal obtains the first subset information A by detecting the first sequence, obtains the second subset information B by detecting the first sequence, and obtains the third subset information WAB by detecting the first symbol in the D-d1 time period. The first subset information, the second subset information, and the third subset information are added together to obtain the wake-up signal of the terminal.

[0185] For example, in this embodiment, during the d1 time period of the wake-up signal corresponding to the preamble, the first sequence is used to carry the first subset information A, which is a subset of the wake-up signal W. During the D-d1 time period, the first sequence is used to carry the second subset information B, and the first symbol is used to carry the third subset information WAB, where the second subset information B and the third subset information WAB are both subsets of the wake-up signal W. The definition of the first subset information A + the second subset information B + the third subset information WAB = the wake-up signal W. The definition of the remaining duration D-d1 is the same as that of the above embodiment, and can be referred to in the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0186] In some embodiments, the wake-up signal includes a preamble. During a second duration of the preamble, a first sequence carries first subset information, the first subset information being a subset of the wake-up signal. The difference between the first duration and the second duration is a remaining duration. During the remaining duration, the first symbol carries the first subset information, the first sequence carries the second subset information, the first subset information and the second subset information are both subsets of the wake-up signal, the second subset information plus the first subset information constitute the wake-up signal, and the remaining duration is a third duration, or the remaining duration is the third duration plus a fourth duration. For example, in this embodiment, during a time period d1 corresponding to the preamble of the wake-up signal, the first sequence carries first subset information WB. During a time period D-d1, the first symbol carries first subset information WB, and the first sequence carries second subset information B. The first subset information WB and the second subset information B are both subsets of the wake-up signal W. The sum of the first subset information WB and the second subset information B constitutes the wake-up signal W. The definition of the remaining duration D-d1 is the same as in the above embodiment and can be referred to in the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0187] In some embodiments, the wake-up signal includes a preamble, and within the second duration of the preamble, the first sequence carries the first subset information, the first subset information is a subset of the wake-up signal, the difference between the first duration and the second duration is the remaining duration, and within the remaining duration, the first symbol carries the wake-up signal, the first sequence carries the first subset information, and the remaining duration is the third duration, or the remaining duration is the third duration plus the fourth duration. For example, in this embodiment, the wake-up signal corresponds to the preamble in the d1 time period using the first sequence to carry the first subset information A, and in the D-d1 time period using the first symbol to carry the wake-up signal W, and the first sequence to carry the first subset information A. The definition of the remaining duration D-d1 is the same as that in the above embodiment, and can be referred to the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0188] In some embodiments, the wake-up signal includes a preamble, and within a second duration of the preamble, a first sequence carries first subset information, the first subset information being a subset of the wake-up signal, the difference between the first duration and the second duration being a remaining duration, and within the remaining duration, the first symbol carries second subset information, the first sequence carries first subset information, the second subset information being a subset of the wake-up signal, and the remaining duration being a third duration, or the remaining duration being the third duration plus a fourth duration. For example, in this embodiment, within a time period d1 of the wake-up signal corresponding to the preamble, the first sequence carries first subset information A, where first subset information A is a subset of wake-up signal W. Within a time period D-d1, the first symbol carries second subset information WA, and the first sequence carries first subset information A, where both second subset information WA and first subset information A are subsets of wake-up signal W. The definition of the remaining duration D-d1 is the same as in the above embodiment, and reference can be made to the above embodiment, and is not further described here.

[0189] In some embodiments, the second duration includes a first sub-duration and a second sub-duration, and within the first sub-duration, the first sequence is a target sequence, and within the second sub-duration, the first sequence carries a wake-up signal. The target sequence can be predefined by the protocol, or configured to the terminal by the base station. For example, in this embodiment, the first duration range includes a preamble, and within the duration segment d1 of the preamble, the d1 time period can be divided into a first sub-duration d1a and a second sub-duration d1b. In the first sub-duration d1a time period, the first sequence includes a target sequence. For example, in the d1a time period, the time domain or frequency domain sequence of the OOK symbol is used as a fixed sequence predefined by the protocol, and the synchronization performance of the wake-up signal is enhanced by the fixed sequence. In the d1b time period, the wake-up signal is carried by the first sequence.

[0190] Step S2102: The terminal determines a first state of the terminal main receiver MR according to the wake-up signal.

[0191] For example, in some embodiments, the first state of the terminal MR includes a super deep sleep state, a deep sleep state, a light sleep state, and a shallow sleep state, wherein the sleep depths of the above sleep states are: super deep sleep state > deep sleep state > light sleep state > shallow sleep state.

[0192] In some embodiments, the wake-up signal can instruct the terminal MR to switch between any two sleep states, and can also instruct the terminal to wake up or not wake up. If the terminal receives the wake-up signal indicating wake-up, it will turn on the MR to receive and process downlink and / or uplink signals. If the wake-up signal does not indicate wake-up, the terminal will maintain the current sleep state of the MR.

[0273] FIG5a is a schematic diagram illustrating a communication method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG5 , the embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a communication method, which is executed by a network device and a terminal. The method includes:

[0274] Step S5101: The network device sends LP-WUS information, where the LP-WUS information is carried by a first resource.

[0275] In some embodiments, in a network communication system, a network device can wake up LP-WUS-supported terminals in a cell or change the sleep state of the terminals by sending LP-WUS information. For LP-WUS-supported terminals, at least one LP-WUS signal is received via the LP-WUR configured in the terminal, and the MR wakes up or changes its sleep state based on the information carried in the LP-WUS signal. Changing the MR sleep state refers to switching between super deep sleep, deep sleep, light sleep, or shallow sleep states in the terminal, and changing the MR wake state refers to transitioning from any of the aforementioned sleep states to an awake state. For example, before receiving the LP-WUS signal, the terminal receives an LP-SS signal sent by the network device via the LP-WUR. The LP-SS signal determines auxiliary information for the LP-WUS. For example, this auxiliary information may include time-frequency synchronization information, cell ID information, etc., but is not limited in this embodiment. The network device can indicate the LP-SS to the terminal via protocol-defined configuration or indication information, and the terminal can monitor the LP-SS according to the protocol-predefined configuration or configuration information.

For example, the LP-WUS may include a preamble, data, and a CRC. For example, the LP-WUS may include both a preamble and data. For example, the LP-WUS may include only data.

[0277] In some embodiments, the time length of the LP-WUS duration corresponding to OFDM-LR is D, that is, the LP-WUR of the terminal needs to receive LP-WUS in time period D. The D can be predefined by the protocol, or semi-statically configured by the base station, or dynamically indicated by the base station. The time length of the Preamble duration is d1, which can be predefined by the protocol, or semi-statically configured by the base station, or dynamically indicated by the base station, and d1 is not greater than D. The time length of the DATA duration is d2, which can be predefined by the protocol, or semi-statically configured by the base station, or dynamically indicated by the base station, and d2 is not greater than D. The time length of the CRC duration is d3, which can be predefined by the protocol, or semi-statically configured by the base station, or dynamically indicated by the base station, and d3 is not greater than D.

[0278] In some embodiments, the manner in which the LP-WUS carries information includes at least one of the following: carrying the wake-up signal entirely using OOK modulation; carrying the wake-up signal entirely using a time domain / frequency domain sequence carried by the LP-WUS symbol; or the LP-WUS information may include multiple subsets of information, wherein the multiple subsets of information may partially carry the wake-up signal using OOK modulation and partially carry the wake-up signal using a time domain / frequency domain sequence carried by the LP-WUS symbol. The information carried by the sequence may be the same as or different from the information carried by the OOK modulation.
