Description

[0001] This application is filed on February 9, 2021, with application number 202180000432.0, and the invention name is “UE capability processing method, device,

[0002] Divisional application for the invention patent application for "communication equipment and storage medium" Technical Field

[0003] The present disclosure relates to, but is not limited to, the field of communication technology, and in particular to a UE capability processing method, apparatus, communication device, and storage medium. Background Art

[0004] The Bandwidth Combination Set (BCS) was introduced in the Long Term Evolution (LTE) communication system. For example, BCS was introduced in LTE's carrier aggregation and dual connectivity to indicate the channel bandwidth combinations supported by the user equipment (UE). The definition of BCS is also used in New Radio (NR) carrier aggregation and dual connectivity, as well as dual connectivity between LTE and NR within the same frequency band.

[0005] However, in wireless communication systems such as NR, the limitations of reporting the combined channel bandwidths of carrier aggregation supported by UEs using the BCS codebook are becoming increasingly apparent as channel bandwidths continue to increase. For example, NR currently supports 13 channel bandwidths in the sub-6GHz band: 5MHz, 10MHz, 15MHz, 20MHz, 25MHz, 30MHz, 40MHz, 50MHz, 60MHz, 70MHz, 80MHz, 90MHz, and 100MHz. Discussions are underway to add 35MHz and 45MHz channel bandwidths. Therefore, when a new channel bandwidth is introduced in an existing frequency band, if it is to be used within an existing carrier aggregation channel bandwidth combination, a new BCS codebook must be created to include the new channel bandwidth. Furthermore, once a BCS codebook is created and incorporated into the standard, it cannot be modified, such as by adding or removing it. Consequently, using the BCS codebook for reporting results in lengthy UE specifications, making them inconvenient to compile and review. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a UE capability processing method, apparatus, communication equipment, and storage medium.

[0008] Report supported bandwidth combination set (BCS) signaling, where the BCS signaling carries a BCS value; where the BCS value is a preset value used for the base station to determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation.

[0009] According to a second aspect of an embodiment of the present disclosure, a UE capability processing method is provided, which is applied to a base station, including:

[0018] processor;

[0019] a memory for storing processor-executable instructions;

[0020] The processor is configured to: implement the UE capability processing method of any embodiment of the present disclosure when running the executable instructions.

[0021] According to a sixth aspect of an embodiment of the present disclosure, a computer storage medium is provided, wherein the computer storage medium stores a computer executable program, and when the executable program is executed by a processor, any UE capability processing method implemented in the present disclosure is implemented.

[0022] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure may have the following beneficial effects:

[0023] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a supported bandwidth combination set (BCS) signaling can be reported by the UE. The BCS signaling carries a BCS value. The BCS value is a preset value and can be used by the base station to determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation. In this way, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the UE introduces a new supported channel bandwidth into the combination of existing supported channel bandwidths during carrier aggregation, there is no need to create a new BCS codebook to report the ability of the UE to support the combination of channel bandwidths. Instead, the UE can directly report the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE by carrying a predetermined value as the BCS value in the existing BCS signaling. This allows for a simple and efficient reporting of the UE's ability to support the combination of channel bandwidths during carrier aggregation.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 1 , which shows a schematic structural diagram of a wireless communication system provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 1 As shown, the wireless communication system is a communication system based on cellular mobile communication technology, and the wireless communication system may include: several user equipments 110 and several base stations 120.

[0042] The user equipment 110 may be a device that provides voice and / or data connectivity to a user. The user equipment 110 may communicate with one or more core networks via a radio access network (RAN). The user equipment 110 may be an Internet of Things user device, such as a sensor device, a mobile phone (or "cellular" phone), and a computer with an Internet of Things user device. For example, the user equipment 110 may be a fixed, portable, pocket-sized, handheld, computer-built-in, or vehicle-mounted device. For example, a station (STA), subscriber unit, subscriber station, mobile station, mobile station, remote station, access point, remote terminal, access terminal, user terminal, user agent, user device, or user equipment. Alternatively, the user equipment 110 may be a device on an unmanned aerial vehicle. Alternatively, the user equipment 110 may be an in-vehicle device, such as a vehicle-mounted computer with wireless communication capabilities, or a wireless user device connected to an external vehicle-mounted computer. Alternatively, the user equipment 110 may also be a roadside device, for example, a street lamp, a traffic light, or other roadside device with a wireless communication function.

[0043] The base station 120 may be a network-side device in a wireless communication system. The wireless communication system may be a fourth-generation mobile communication technology (4G) system, also known as a long-term evolution (LTE) system; or, the wireless communication system may be a 5G system, also known as a new air interface system or a 5G NR system. Alternatively, the wireless communication system may be a next-generation system of the 5G system. The access network in the 5G system may be referred to as a new generation radio access network (NG-RAN).

[0044] Among them, the base station 120 can be an evolved base station (eNB) adopted in a 4G system. Alternatively, the base station 120 can also be a base station (gNB) adopting a centralized distributed architecture in a 5G system. When the base station 120 adopts a centralized distributed architecture, it usually includes a centralized unit (CU) and at least two distributed units (DU). The centralized unit is provided with a protocol stack of a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer, a radio link layer control protocol (RLC) layer, and a medium access control (MAC) layer; the distributed unit is provided with a physical (PHY) layer protocol stack. The embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the specific implementation method of the base station 120.

[0045] A wireless connection can be established between the base station 120 and the user equipment 110 via a wireless air interface. In various implementations, the wireless air interface is a wireless air interface based on the fourth generation mobile communication network technology (4G) standard; or, the wireless air interface is a wireless air interface based on the fifth generation mobile communication network technology (5G) standard, for example, the wireless air interface is a new air interface; or, the wireless air interface can also be a wireless air interface based on the next generation mobile communication network technology standard of 5G.

[0046] In some embodiments, E2E (End to End) connections may also be established between user devices 110. For example, vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication, vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication, and vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P) communication in vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication scenarios.

[0047] Here, the above user equipment can be considered as the terminal equipment in the following embodiments.

[0048] In some embodiments, the wireless communication system may further include a network management device 130 .

[0049] Several base stations 120 are respectively connected to a network management device 130. The network management device 130 may be a core network device in a wireless communication system. For example, the network management device 130 may be a mobility management entity (MME) in an evolved packet core (EPC). Alternatively, the network management device may be other core network devices, such as a serving gateway (SGW), a public data network gateway (PGW), a policy and charging rules function (PCRF), or a home subscriber server (HSS). The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit the implementation form of the network management device 130.

[0050] In order to better understand the technical solutions described in any embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE reports the channel bandwidth to illustrate:

[0051] In one embodiment, the UE may report the following information: the channel bandwidth supported on the carrier when no carrier aggregation is performed, the channel bandwidth supported by the corresponding carrier when carrier aggregation is performed, and / or the maximum channel bandwidth supported on each carrier when carrier aggregation is performed; the network (e.g., a base station) may configure the channel bandwidth supported by the UE when carrier aggregation is performed through this information.

[0052] In the prior art, when a new channel bandwidth is introduced on an existing frequency band, a new bandwidth combination set (BCS) codebook must be created to include the new channel bandwidth if it is used within the existing supported channel bandwidth combinations. However, once a BCS codebook is created and written into the standard, it cannot be added to, deleted from, or modified. This results in a very lengthy and inconvenient specification for reporting UE supported channel bandwidth capabilities.

[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a UE capability processing method, which is applied to a UE, including:

[0054] Step S21: reporting supported bandwidth combination set (BCS) signaling, wherein the BCS signaling carries a BCS value; wherein the BCS value is a preset value used for the base station to determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation.

[0055] In some embodiments, the UE may be various mobile terminals or fixed terminals. For example, the UE may be, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a computer, a server, a wearable device, a game console, or a multimedia device.

[0056] In some embodiments, the base station may be any type of base station. For example, the base station may be, but is not limited to, a 3G network base station, a 4G network base station, a 5G network base station, or other evolved base stations. In other embodiments, the base station may be a terrestrial network base station or a non-terrestrial network base station.

[0057] In some embodiments, the BCS value is a preset value used by a network entity to determine a channel bandwidth combination supported by the UE during carrier aggregation. The network entity here may be, but is not limited to, a base station or an access point device.

[0058] In one embodiment, the BCS value is a preset value used to indicate the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE on each carrier when carrier aggregation is not performed. Thus, in the disclosed embodiment, the UE can report the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE on each carrier when carrier aggregation is not performed, without having to report a BCS codebook. Instead, the UE can report a BCS value containing the preset value to report the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE on each carrier when carrier aggregation is not performed. This satisfies the reporting requirements of different UEs for the channel bandwidths supported by the UE when carrier aggregation is not performed, and enables more efficient and simplified reporting of the channel bandwidths supported by the UE on each carrier when carrier aggregation is not performed.

[0059] Exemplarily, the BCS value is 1 bit. For example, when the 1 bit is "0", it can be used to indicate that the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE on each carrier when non-carrier aggregation is in progress is {5MHz, 10MHz, 15MHz, 20MHz, 25MHz, 30MHz}; for another example, when the 1 bit is "1", it can be used to indicate that the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE on each carrier when non-carrier aggregation is in progress is {5MHz, 10MHz, 15MHz, 20MHz, 25MHz, 30MHz, 40MHz, 50MHz}.

[0060] Exemplarily, the BCS value consists of multiple bits. For example, if the BCS value is 2 bits and the 2 bits are "11", it can be used to indicate that the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE on each carrier in non-carrier aggregation is {5MHz, 10MHz, 15MHz, 20MHz, 25MHz, 30MHz, 40MHz, 50MHz, 60MHz, 70MHz, 80MHz, 90MHz, 100MHz}. For another example, if the BCS value is 3 bits and the 3 bits are "111", it can be used to indicate that the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE on each carrier in non-carrier aggregation is {5MHz, 10MHz, 15MHz, 20MHz, 25MHz, 30MHz, 35MHz, 40MHz, 45MHz, 50MHz, 60MHz, 70MHz, 80MHz, 90MHz, 100MHz}. For example, the BCS value is 4 bits. When the 4 bits are "1111", it is used to indicate that the channel bandwidth combination supported by the UE on each carrier when non-carrier aggregation is {5MHz, 10MHz, 15MHz, 20MHz, 25MHz, 30MHz, 35MHz, 40MHz, 45MHz, 50MHz, 60MHz, 65MHz, 70MHz, 75MHz, 80MHz, 90MHz, 100Mhz}.

[0061] In another embodiment, the BCS value is BCS4, which is used to indicate all combinations of channel bandwidths supported by the UE on each carrier when non-carrier aggregation occurs. All combinations of channel bandwidths supported here may refer to combinations of all channel bandwidths that can be supported; all combinations of channel bandwidths supported here may also refer to a full set of channel bandwidths. Thus, in the disclosed embodiment, the UE may not need to report the BCS codebook, and may indicate all combinations of channel bandwidths supported by the UE on each carrier when non-carrier aggregation occurs by reporting a BCS value that carries a preset value; thus, different UEs, such as UEs of different operators, do not need to each limit the different combinations of channel bandwidths supported by the UE on each carrier when non-carrier aggregation occurs, so that the UE may report a full set of channel bandwidth combinations to satisfy the reporting of the channel bandwidth supported by the UE of each operator on each carrier when non-carrier aggregation occurs.

[0062] In one embodiment, the BCS value may be carried in one or more bits of BCS signaling. That is, embodiments of the present disclosure may reuse BCS signaling, with the BCS value carried in predetermined bits within the BCS signaling; for example, the BCS value may be carried in the fourth bit of the BCS signaling, or in bits 4-5 of the BCS signaling. Of course, in other embodiments, the predetermined bits may be subsegments or information fields with unspecified meanings within the BCS signaling.

[0063] In one embodiment, among the multiple bits carried by the BCS signaling, if at least one bit is used to indicate the channel bandwidth selected or supported during carrier aggregation, then at this time, the bit value of at least one bit is: "1". Therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, all the bit values ​​of the multiple bits can be "1" and used as the preset value.

[0064] In one embodiment, the combination of channel bandwidths may be a set of channel bandwidths. For example, if the channel bandwidths supported by a UE during carrier aggregation are 5 MHz, 10 MHz, 15 MHz, and 35 MHz, the combination of channel bandwidths may be represented by {5 MHz, 10 MHz, 15 MHz, 35 MHz}. Of course, the combination of channel bandwidths may be represented in a variety of ways. This embodiment is merely an example and does not limit the specific representation.

[0065] Of course, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the BCS value can also be used by the base station to determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE when no carrier aggregation is performed.

[0066] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, BCS signaling can be reported by the UE. The BCS signaling carries a BCS value. The BCS value is a preset value and can be used by the base station to determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation. In this way, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the UE introduces a new supported channel bandwidth into the existing supported channel bandwidth combination during carrier aggregation, there is no need to create a new BCS codebook to report the UE's ability to support the combination of channel bandwidths. Instead, the UE can directly report the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE by carrying a predetermined value as the BCS value in the existing BCS signaling. This allows for a simple and efficient reporting of the UE's ability to support the combination of channel bandwidths during carrier aggregation.

[0067] Moreover, the embodiments of the present disclosure can target different UEs, for example, UEs of different operators that need to report different channel bandwidths supported in non-carrier aggregation. By reporting the full set of channel bandwidths supported by a UE on each carrier in non-carrier aggregation, the reporting requirements of each UE, for example, the channel bandwidth of the UE of each operator, can be met. In this way, the UE's ability to support channel bandwidth can be further reported simply and efficiently, and can adapt to more application scenarios.

[0068] It should be noted that those skilled in the art will understand that the method provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be executed alone or together with some methods in the embodiments of the present disclosure or some methods in related technologies.

[0069] like Figure 3 As shown, a UE capability processing method is provided, which is applied to a UE, including:

[0070] Step S31: reporting the first type of signaling; wherein, the first type of signaling is used to indicate the channel bandwidth supported by the UE in non-carrier aggregation; wherein, the first type of signaling and the BCS value are used together for the base station to determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE in carrier aggregation.

[0071] In some embodiments, the first type of signaling includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following:

[0072] Uplink channel bandwidth (channelBWs-UL) signaling, used to indicate the uplink channel bandwidth supported by the UE when no carrier aggregation is used;

[0073] Downlink channel bandwidth (channelBWs-DL) signaling, used to indicate the downlink channel bandwidth supported by the UE when no carrier aggregation is used;

[0074] Uplink channel bandwidth 70 MHz (channelBWs-UL-v1590) signaling, used to indicate that the UE supports an uplink channel bandwidth of 70 MHz when no carrier aggregation is used.

[0075] Downlink channel bandwidth 70 MHz (channelBWs-DL-v1590) signaling, used to indicate that the UE supports a downlink channel bandwidth of 70 MHz when no carrier aggregation is used.

[0076] Channel bandwidth 90 MHz (channelBW-90mhz) signaling, used to indicate that the uplink channel bandwidth and / or downlink channel bandwidth supported by the UE in non-carrier aggregation is 90 MHz;

[0077] Supported uplink bandwidth (UL) signaling, used to indicate the maximum uplink bandwidth supported by the UE when no carrier aggregation is used;

[0078] Supported downlink bandwidth (supportedBandwidthDL) signaling is used to indicate the maximum downlink bandwidth supported by the UE when no carrier aggregation is performed.

[0079] In one embodiment, the channelBWs-UL signaling is used to indicate a combination of uplink channel bandwidths other than the channel bandwidth indicated by the channelBWs-UL-v1590 signaling, the uplink channel bandwidth indicated by the channelBW-90mhz signaling, and the maximum uplink bandwidth indicated by the supportedBandwidthUL signaling.

[0080] In another embodiment, the channelBWs-DL signaling is used to indicate a combination of downlink channel bandwidths other than the channel bandwidth indicated by the channelBWs-DL-v1590 signaling, the downlink channel bandwidth indicated by the channelBW-90mhz signaling, and the maximum downlink bandwidth indicated by the supportedBandwidthDL signaling.

[0081] Of course, in other embodiments, the first type of signaling may also be used to indicate other numerical channel bandwidths or other ranges of channel bandwidths supported in non-carrier aggregation. The other numerical channel bandwidths may refer to channel bandwidths other than those indicated by channelBWs-UL-v1590, channelBWs-DL-v1590, and channelBW-90mhz.

[0082] In one embodiment, channelBWs-UL signaling is used to indicate the channel bandwidth supported by the UE on the carrier when carrier aggregation is not performed. Thus, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE may report channelBWs-UL signaling to indicate the uplink channel bandwidth supported by the UE on one or more carriers when carrier aggregation is not performed. For example, there are N carriers, namely carrier 1, carrier 2, ..., carrier N, where N is an integer greater than 1; then the channelBWs-UL signaling is used to indicate the channel bandwidth of the UE on the N carriers when carrier aggregation is not performed, or to indicate the uplink channel bandwidth of the UE on a corresponding carrier or multiple corresponding carriers when carrier aggregation is not performed.

[0083] In one embodiment, channelBWs-DL signaling is used to indicate the channel bandwidth supported by the UE on the carrier when the carrier is not aggregated. Thus, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE can report channelBWs-DL signaling to indicate the downlink channel bandwidth supported by the UE on one or more carriers when the carrier is not aggregated. For example, there are N carriers, namely carrier 1, carrier 2, ..., carrier N, where N is an integer greater than 1; then the channelBWs-DL signaling is used to indicate the channel bandwidth of the UE on the N carriers when the carrier is not aggregated, or to indicate the downlink channel bandwidth of the UE on a corresponding carrier or multiple corresponding carriers when the carrier is not aggregated.

[0084] In one embodiment, channelBWs-UL-v1590 signaling is used to indicate that the downlink channel bandwidth supported by the UE on the carrier when non-carrier aggregation is in progress is 70MHz. Thus, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE may report channelBWs-UL-v1590 to indicate that the uplink channel bandwidth supported by the UE on one or more carriers when non-carrier aggregation is in progress is 70MHz. For example, there are N carriers, namely carrier 1, carrier 2, ..., carrier N, where N is an integer greater than 1; then the channelBWs-UL-v1590 signaling is used to indicate that the channel bandwidth of the UE on the N carriers when non-carrier aggregation is in progress is 70MHz, or to indicate that the uplink channel bandwidth of the UE on a corresponding carrier or multiple corresponding carriers when non-carrier aggregation is in progress is 70MHz.

[0085] In one embodiment, channelBWs-DL-v1590 signaling is used to indicate that the uplink channel bandwidth supported by the UE on the carrier when the carrier is not aggregated is 70HMz. Thus, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE can report channelBWs-DL-v1590 to indicate that the downlink channel bandwidth supported by the UE on one or more carriers when the carrier is not aggregated is 70MHz. For example, there are N carriers, namely carrier 1, carrier 2, ..., carrier N, where N is an integer greater than 1; then the channelBWs-DL-v1590 signaling is used to indicate the channel bandwidth of the N carriers when the UE is not aggregated, or to indicate that the downlink channel bandwidth of the UE on a corresponding carrier or multiple corresponding carriers when the carrier is not aggregated is 70MHz.

[0086] In one embodiment, channelBW-90mhz signaling is used to indicate that the uplink channel bandwidth and / or downlink channel bandwidth supported by the UE on the carrier when the carrier is not aggregated is 90MHz. Thus, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE can report channelBW-90mhz to indicate that the uplink channel bandwidth and / or downlink channel bandwidth supported by the UE on one or more carriers when the carrier is not aggregated is 90MHz. For example, there are N carriers, namely carrier 1, carrier 2, ... carrier N, where N is an integer greater than 1; then the channelBW-90mhz signaling is used to indicate the channel bandwidth of the N carriers when the UE is not aggregated, or to indicate that the uplink channel bandwidth and / or downlink channel bandwidth of the UE on a corresponding carrier or multiple corresponding carriers when the carrier is not aggregated is 90MHz.

[0087] In one embodiment, supportedBandwidthUL signaling is used to indicate the maximum uplink bandwidth supported by the UE on the carrier when carrier aggregation is not performed. Thus, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE may report supportedBandwidthUL signaling to indicate the maximum uplink bandwidth supported by the UE on one or more carriers when carrier aggregation is not performed. For example, there are N carriers, namely carrier 1, carrier 2, ..., carrier N, where N is an integer greater than 1; then supportedBandwidthUL signaling is used to indicate the channel bandwidth of the UE on the N carriers when carrier aggregation is not performed, or to indicate the maximum uplink bandwidth supported by the UE on a corresponding carrier or multiple corresponding carriers when carrier aggregation is not performed.

[0088] In one embodiment, supportedBandwidthDL signaling is used to indicate the maximum downlink bandwidth supported by the UE on the carrier when non-carrier aggregation occurs. Thus, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE may report supportedBandwidthDL signaling to indicate the maximum downlink bandwidth supported by the UE on one or more carriers when non-carrier aggregation occurs. For example, there are N carriers, namely carrier 1, carrier 2, ..., carrier N, where N is an integer greater than 1; then supportedBandwidthDL signaling is used to indicate the channel bandwidth of the UE on the N carriers when non-carrier aggregation occurs, or to indicate the maximum downlink bandwidth supported by the UE on a corresponding carrier or multiple corresponding carriers when non-carrier aggregation occurs.

[0089] The present disclosure provides a method for processing UE capabilities, which may include but is not limited to at least one of the following:

[0090] Report channelBWs-UL signaling;

[0091] Report channelBWs-DL signaling;

[0092] Report channelBWs-UL-v1590 signaling;

[0093] Report channelBWs-DL-v1590 signaling;

[0094] Report channelBW-90mhz signaling;

[0095] Report supportedBandwidthUL signaling;

[0096] Report supportedBandwidthDL signaling.

[0097] In this way, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE can report 0, one or more of channelBWs-UL signaling, channelBWs-DL signaling, channelBWs-UL-v1590 signaling, channelBWs-DL-v1590 signaling, channelBW-90mhz signaling, supportedBandwidthUL signaling and supportedBandwidthDL signaling, so that the base station can determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation.

[0098] In one embodiment, if the UE reports channelBWs-UL signaling, the base station may determine that the UE supports uplink channel bandwidth combinations other than 70 MHz, 90 MHz, and the maximum uplink bandwidth indicated by the supportedBandwidthUL signaling during carrier aggregation.

[0099] In another embodiment, if the UE reports channelBWs-DL signaling, the base station may determine that the UE supports combinations of downlink channel bandwidths other than 70 MHz, 90 MHz, and the maximum downlink bandwidth indicated by the supportedBandwidthDL signaling during carrier aggregation.

[0100] In one embodiment, if the UE reports channelBWs-UL signaling and channelBWs-UL-v1590 signaling, the base station can determine that the UE supports uplink channel bandwidth combinations other than 90 MHz and the maximum uplink bandwidth indicated by the supportedBandwidthUL signaling during carrier aggregation.

[0101] In another embodiment, if the UE reports channelBWs-DL signaling and channelBWs-DL-v1590 signaling, the base station can determine that the UE supports a combination of downlink channel bandwidths other than 90 MHz and the maximum downlink bandwidth indicated by the supportedBandwidthDL signaling during carrier aggregation.

[0102] In one embodiment, if the UE reports channelBWs-UL signaling, channelBWs-UL-v1590 signaling, and channelBW-90mhz signaling, and if the maximum uplink bandwidth indicated by the supportedBandwidthUL signaling is 100MHz, the base station can determine that the UE supports a combination of uplink channel bandwidths other than 100MHz during carrier aggregation.

[0103] In one embodiment, if the UE reports channelBWs-DL signaling, channelBWs-DL-v1590 signaling, and channelBW-90mhz signaling, and if the maximum downlink bandwidth indicated by the supportedBandwidthDL signaling is 100MHz, the base station can determine that the UE supports a combination of downlink channel bandwidths other than 100MHz during carrier aggregation.

[0104] In one embodiment, if the UE reports channelBWs-UL signaling, channelBWs-UL-v1590 signaling, channelBW-90mhz signaling, and supportedBandwidthUL signaling, the base station can determine that the UE supports all combinations of uplink channel bandwidths during carrier aggregation.

[0105] In another embodiment, if the UE reports channelBWs-DL signaling, channelBWs-DL-v1590 signaling, channelBW-90mhz signaling, and supportedBandwidthDL signaling, the base station can determine all combinations of downlink channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation.

[0106] The present disclosure provides a method for processing UE capabilities, which may include but is not limited to at least one of the following:

[0107] Report channelBWs-UL signaling in different frequency bands respectively;

[0108] Report channelBWs-DL signaling in different frequency bands;

[0109] Report channelBWs-UL-v1590 signaling in different frequency bands;

[0110] Report channelBWs-DL-v1590 signaling in different frequency bands;

[0111] Report channelBW-90mhz signaling in different frequency bands respectively;

[0112] Report supportedBandwidthUL signaling in different frequency bands respectively;

[0113] SupportedBandwidthDL signaling is reported separately in different frequency bands.

[0114] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the frequency band where the UE is located can be divided into one or more sub-frequency bands, so that the UE can report 0, one or more of channelBWs-UL signaling, channelBWs-DL signaling, channelBWs-UL-v1590 signaling, channelBWs-DL-v1590 signaling, channelBW-90mhz signaling, supportedBandwidthUL signaling and supportedBandwidthDL signaling in different sub-frequency bands, so that the base station can determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by different sub-frequency bands of the UE during carrier aggregation.

[0115] In one embodiment, the first type of signaling includes but is not limited to at least one of the following:

[0116] Supported uplink bandwidth (UL) signaling, used to indicate the maximum uplink bandwidth supported by the UE during carrier aggregation;

[0117] Supported downlink bandwidth (supportedBandwidthDL) signaling is used to indicate the maximum downlink bandwidth supported by the UE during carrier aggregation.

[0118] Thus, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, supportedBandwidthUL signaling and / or supportedBandwidthDL signaling can be multiplexed; for example, the UE can report supportedBandwidthUL signaling and / or supportedBandwidthDL signaling twice consecutively, so that the base station knows the maximum uplink bandwidth supported by the UE in non-carrier aggregation and carrier aggregation, and / or, so that the base station knows the minimum uplink bandwidth supported by the UE in non-carrier aggregation and carrier aggregation. For example, the supportedBandwidthUL signaling is reported twice consecutively, wherein the first supportedBandwidthUL signaling is reported to indicate the maximum uplink bandwidth supported in non-carrier aggregation, and the second supportedBandwidthUL signaling is reported to indicate the maximum uplink bandwidth supported in carrier aggregation; for another example, the supportedBandwidthDL signaling is reported twice consecutively, wherein the first supportedBandwidthDL signaling is reported to indicate the maximum downlink bandwidth supported in non-carrier aggregation, and the second supportedBandwidthDL signaling is reported to indicate the maximum downlink bandwidth supported in carrier aggregation.

[0119] In one embodiment, the first type of signaling includes but is not limited to at least one of the following:

[0120] SupportedBandwidthUL signaling is used to indicate the maximum uplink bandwidth supported by the UE on the carrier when no carrier aggregation is performed, or to indicate the maximum uplink bandwidth supported by the UE on the carrier when carrier aggregation is performed;

[0121] The supportedBandwidthDL signaling is used to indicate the maximum downlink bandwidth supported by the UE on a carrier when no carrier aggregation is performed, or to indicate the maximum downlink bandwidth supported by the UE on the carrier when carrier aggregation is performed.

[0122] Thus, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, supportedBandwidthUL signaling and / or supportedBandwidthDL signaling can be multiplexed; for example, the UE can report supportedBandwidthUL signaling and / or supportedBandwidthDL signaling twice consecutively, so that the base station knows the maximum uplink bandwidth supported by the UE on the same carrier in non-carrier aggregation and carrier aggregation, and / or, so that the base station knows the maximum downlink bandwidth supported by the UE on the same carrier in non-carrier aggregation and carrier aggregation. For example, supportedBandwidthUL signaling is reported twice consecutively, the first supportedBandwidthUL signaling is reported to indicate the maximum uplink bandwidth supported by carrier 1 in non-carrier aggregation, and the second supportedBandwidthUL signaling is reported to indicate the maximum uplink bandwidth supported by carrier 1 in carrier aggregation. For another example, supportedBandwidthDL signaling is reported twice in succession, wherein the first reported supportedBandwidthDL signaling is used to indicate the maximum downlink bandwidth supported by carrier 1 in non-carrier aggregation, and the second reported supportedBandwidthDL is used to indicate the maximum downlink bandwidth supported by carrier 1 in carrier aggregation.

[0123] Of course, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the BCS value and the first type of signaling can also be used by the base station to determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE when no carrier aggregation is performed.

[0124] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the channel bandwidth capabilities supported by different UEs, such as UEs of different operators, in non-carrier aggregation can be reported by reporting first-class signaling; thereby, the base station can determine the channel bandwidth combinations supported by different UEs in carrier aggregation based on the BCS value and the first-class signaling. For example, the supported channel bandwidths indicated by each signaling in the first-class signaling can be combined as the channel bandwidth combination supported by the UE; in this way, the channel bandwidth capabilities of the UE can be reported efficiently and simply, and the base station does not need to measure all channel bandwidth combinations of different UEs, thereby improving the measurement efficiency of the base station and saving measurement resources.

[0125] It should be noted that those skilled in the art will understand that the method provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be executed alone or together with some methods in the embodiments of the present disclosure or some methods in related technologies.

[0126] like Figure 4 As shown, a UE capability processing method is provided, which is applied to a UE, including:

[0127] Step S41: Report the second type of signaling; wherein, the second type of signaling is used to indicate the minimum channel bandwidth supported by the UE during carrier aggregation; wherein, the second type of signaling and the BCS value are used together for the base station to determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation; or, the second type of signaling, the BCS value and the first type of signaling are used together for the base station to determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation.

[0128] In some embodiments, the second type of signaling includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following:

[0129] Support uplink minimum bandwidth signaling, which is used to indicate the minimum uplink bandwidth supported by the UE during carrier aggregation;

[0130] Supports downlink minimum bandwidth signaling, which is used to indicate the minimum downlink bandwidth supported by the UE during carrier aggregation.

[0131] In one embodiment, the uplink minimum bandwidth signaling is supported, including supportedMinBandwidthUL signaling.

[0132] In one embodiment, the downlink minimum bandwidth signaling is supported, including supportedMinBandwidthDL signaling.

[0133] In one embodiment, uplink minimum bandwidth signaling is supported to indicate the minimum uplink bandwidth supported on the carrier during carrier aggregation. Thus, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE may report support for uplink minimum bandwidth signaling to indicate the minimum uplink bandwidth supported by the UE on one or more carriers during carrier aggregation. For example, there are N carriers, namely carrier 1, carrier 2, ..., carrier N, where N is an integer greater than 1; then uplink minimum bandwidth signaling is supported to indicate the minimum uplink bandwidth of the UE on the N carriers during carrier aggregation, or to indicate the minimum uplink bandwidth of the UE on a corresponding carrier or multiple corresponding carriers during carrier aggregation.

[0134] In one embodiment, downlink minimum bandwidth signaling is supported to indicate the minimum downlink bandwidth supported on the carrier during carrier aggregation. Thus, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE may report support for downlink minimum bandwidth signaling to indicate the minimum downlink bandwidth supported by the UE on one or more carriers during carrier aggregation. For example, there are N carriers, namely carrier 1, carrier 2, ..., carrier N, where N is an integer greater than 1; then downlink minimum bandwidth signaling is supported to indicate the minimum downlink bandwidth of the UE on the N carriers during carrier aggregation, or to indicate the minimum downlink bandwidth of the UE on a corresponding carrier or multiple corresponding carriers during carrier aggregation.

[0135] The present disclosure provides a method for improving UE processing capabilities, which may include but is limited to at least one of the following:

[0136] Report the minimum uplink bandwidth signaling supported;

[0137] Reports the minimum downlink bandwidth signaling supported.

[0138] Thus, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the UE may report the second type of signaling, such as reporting zero, one, or more of the supported uplink minimum bandwidth signaling and the supported downlink minimum bandwidth signaling, so that the base station can determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation based on the BCS value and the second type of signaling, or based on the BC value, the first type of signaling, and the second type of signaling. For example, the range of uplink channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation can be determined based on the supported uplink bandwidth signaling in the first type of signaling and the supported uplink minimum bandwidth signaling in the second type of signaling.

[0139] Furthermore, the embodiments of the present disclosure can report the capabilities of different channel bandwidths supported by different UEs during carrier aggregation; for example, the minimum downlink bandwidth indicated in the supported uplink minimum bandwidth signaling reported for UE A is different from the minimum downlink bandwidth indicated in the supported uplink minimum bandwidth signaling reported for UE B, so that the base station only needs to measure the different channel bandwidths supported by different UEs, and there is no need to measure all channel bandwidth combinations for all UEs.

[0140] In this way, the embodiments of the present disclosure can not only report the channel bandwidth capability of the UE in a simple and efficient manner, but also make it unnecessary for the base station to measure all combinations of channel bandwidths of different UEs, thereby improving the measurement efficiency of the base station, saving measurement resources, and adapting to more application scenarios of the ability to report the channel bandwidth of the UE.

[0141] An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for processing UE capabilities, which may include but is limited to at least one of the following:

[0142] Report uplink minimum bandwidth signaling in different sub-bands;

[0143] Report downlink minimum bandwidth signaling in different frequency bands.

[0144] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the frequency band where the UE is located can be divided into one or more sub-frequency bands, so that the UE can report 0, 1, or more of the uplink minimum bandwidth signaling and the downlink minimum bandwidth signaling in different sub-frequency bands, so that the base station can determine the combination of channel bandwidths of different sub-frequency bands of the UE during carrier aggregation.

[0145] It should be noted that those skilled in the art will understand that the method provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be executed alone or together with some methods in the embodiments of the present disclosure or some methods in related technologies.

[0146] like Figure 5 As shown, a UE capability processing method is provided, which is applied to a UE, including:

[0147] Step S51: reporting the third type of signaling; wherein, the third type of signaling is used to indicate the channel bandwidth supported by the UE during carrier aggregation; wherein, the third type of signaling and the BCS value are used together for the base station to determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation; or, the third type of signaling, the BCS value and the first type of signaling are used together for the base station to determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation; or, the third type of signaling, the BCS value, the first type of signaling and the second type of signaling are used together for the base station to determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation.

[0148] In some embodiments, the third type of signaling includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following:

[0149] Carrier aggregation uplink channel bandwidth signaling, used to indicate the uplink channel bandwidth supported by the UE during carrier aggregation;

[0150] Carrier aggregation downlink channel bandwidth signaling is used to indicate the downlink channel bandwidth supported by the UE during carrier aggregation.

[0151] In one embodiment, the carrier aggregation uplink channel bandwidth signaling includes: channelBWs-UL-ca signaling.

[0152] In one embodiment, the carrier aggregation downlink channel band width signaling includes: channelBWs-DL-ca signaling.

[0153] In one embodiment, the carrier aggregation uplink channel bandwidth signaling is used to indicate the uplink channel bandwidth supported on the carrier during carrier aggregation. For example, the carrier aggregation uplink channel bandwidth signaling is used to indicate the uplink channel bandwidth supported on each carrier during carrier aggregation. For another example, there are N carriers, namely carrier 1, carrier 2, ..., carrier N, for carrier aggregation, where N is an integer greater than 1; then the carrier aggregation uplink channel bandwidth instruction is used to indicate the uplink channel bandwidth of the UE on the N carriers during carrier aggregation, or to indicate the uplink channel bandwidth of the UE on a corresponding carrier or multiple corresponding carriers during carrier aggregation. In this way, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the carrier aggregation uplink channel bandwidth signaling can be reported by the UE to indicate the uplink channel bandwidth supported by the UE on one or more carriers during carrier aggregation.

[0154] In one embodiment, the carrier aggregation downlink channel bandwidth signaling is used to indicate the downlink channel bandwidth supported on the carrier during carrier aggregation. For example, the carrier aggregation uplink channel bandwidth signaling is used to indicate the downlink channel bandwidth supported on each carrier during carrier aggregation. For another example, there are N carriers, namely carrier 1, carrier 2, ..., carrier N, for carrier aggregation, where N is an integer greater than 1; then the carrier aggregation downlink channel bandwidth instruction is used to indicate the uplink channel bandwidth of the UE on the N carriers during carrier aggregation, or to indicate the downlink channel bandwidth of the UE on a corresponding carrier or multiple corresponding carriers during carrier aggregation. In this way, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the carrier aggregation uplink channel bandwidth signaling can be reported by the UE to indicate the uplink channel bandwidth supported by the UE on one or more carriers during carrier aggregation.

[0155] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE may report the third type of signaling, such as 0, 1, or more of the carrier aggregation uplink channel bandwidth signaling and the carrier aggregation downlink channel bandwidth signaling, so that the base station may determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation based on the BCS value and the third type of signaling, or based on the BCS value, the first type of signaling, and the third type of signaling, or based on the BCS value, the first type of signaling, the second type of signaling, and the third type of signaling.

[0156] Furthermore, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, different channel bandwidth capabilities can be reported for different UEs. For example, third-type signaling indicating support for different channel bandwidths can be reported for UE A and UE B. This allows the base station to measure only the different channel bandwidths supported by different UEs, eliminating the need to measure all channel bandwidth combinations for all UEs.

[0157] In this way, the embodiments of the present disclosure can not only report the channel bandwidth capability of the UE in a simple and efficient manner, but also make it unnecessary for the base station to measure all combinations of channel bandwidths of different UEs, thereby improving the measurement efficiency of the base station, saving measurement resources, and adapting to more application scenarios of the ability to report the channel bandwidth of the UE.

[0158] It should be noted that those skilled in the art will understand that the method provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be executed alone or together with some methods in the embodiments of the present disclosure or some methods in related technologies.

[0159] It should be noted that the following UE capability processing method is applied to a base station and is similar to the description of the UE capability processing method applied to a UE described above. For technical details not disclosed in the embodiment of the UE capability processing method applied to a base station in this disclosure, please refer to the description of the embodiment of the UE capability processing method applied to a UE in this disclosure, and will not be elaborated here.

[0160] It should also be pointed out here that the following UE capability processing method applied to the base station can also be applied to the network side; wherein, the network side can be a network side entity, and the network side entity includes a logical entity or a virtual entity.

[0161] like Figure 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a UE capability processing method, which is applied to a base station, including:

[0162] Step S61: receiving BCS support signaling;

[0163] Step S62: In response to the BCS signaling carrying a preset BCS value, a combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation is determined based on the BCS value.

[0164] In one embodiment, step S61 may be: receiving BCS signaling sent by UE.

[0165] In one embodiment, the BCS value is a preset value used to indicate the channel bandwidth combination supported by the UE on each carrier when carrier aggregation is not performed. Thus, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, the base station determines the channel bandwidth combination supported by the UE on each carrier when carrier aggregation is performed in response to the BCS value of BCS4 carried in the BCS signaling.

[0166] In another embodiment, the BCS value is BCS4, which is used to indicate all combinations of channel bandwidths supported by the UE on each carrier when carrier aggregation is not performed. Thus, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the base station determines all combinations of channel bandwidths supported by the UE on each carrier when carrier aggregation is performed in response to the BCS value of BCS4 carried in the BCS signaling.

[0167] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, upon receiving BCS signaling, if the base station determines that the BCS signaling carries a preset BCS value, the base station can directly determine the channel bandwidth combination supported by the UE during carrier aggregation based on the BCS value. In this way, when a new supported channel bandwidth is introduced into the existing channel bandwidth combination supported during carrier aggregation, there is no need to create a new BCS codebook to report the channel bandwidth combination supported by the UE. Instead, the base station can directly report the channel bandwidth combination supported by the UE by carrying the preset value as the BCS value in the existing BCS signaling. This allows for a simple and efficient acquisition of the UE's ability to support channel bandwidth combinations during carrier aggregation.

[0168] Moreover, the embodiments of the present disclosure can target different UEs, for example, when UEs of different operators need to report different channel bandwidths supported in non-carrier aggregation, by reporting the full set of channel bandwidths supported by a UE on each carrier in non-carrier aggregation, the UE's ability to support channel bandwidth can be further reported simply and efficiently, and can adapt to more application scenarios.

[0169] It should be noted that those skilled in the art will understand that the method provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be executed alone or together with some methods in the embodiments of the present disclosure or some methods in related technologies.

[0220] A UE capability processing method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure is applied to a base station and may include: obtaining third-type signaling; wherein the third-type signaling is used to indicate the channel bandwidth supported by the UE during carrier aggregation.

[0221] In one embodiment, obtaining the third type of signaling includes: receiving the third type of signaling sent by the UE.

[0222] In some embodiments, the third type of signaling includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following:

[0223] Carrier aggregation uplink channel bandwidth signaling, used to indicate the uplink channel bandwidth supported by the UE during carrier aggregation;

[0231] It should be noted that those skilled in the art will understand that the method provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be executed alone or together with some methods in the embodiments of the present disclosure or some methods in related technologies.

[0232] like Figure 7 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a UE capability processing method, which is applied to a base station and includes:

[0233] Step S71: Based on the BCS value and the first type of signaling, determine the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation.

[0234] A UE processing method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure may include: in response to a BCS value carried in the BCS signaling, determining a combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation based on the BCS value and the first type of signaling.

[0235] A UE processing method provided by an example of the present disclosure may include: in response to a BCS value of BCS4 carried in the BCS signaling, determining a combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation based on the first type of signaling.

[0236] In one embodiment, based on the BCS value and the first type of signaling, the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation is determined: based on the intersection of the full set of channel bandwidths and the channel bandwidths supported by the UE indicated by the first type of signaling, the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation is determined.

[0237] The union here refers to the combination of at least two channel bandwidths or channel bandwidth combinations. For example, if the first channel bandwidth combination is {10MHz, 15MHz, 25MHz} and the second channel bandwidth combination is {15MHz, 25MHz, 35MHz, 45MHz}, then the union of the first and second channel bandwidth combinations is {10MHz, 15MHz, 25MHz, 35MHz, 45MHz}.

[0238] The intersection here refers to a combination of channel bandwidths that are the same portion of at least two channel bandwidths or channel bandwidth combinations. For example, if the first channel bandwidth combination is {10 MHz, 15 MHz, 25 MHz} and the second channel bandwidth combination is {15 MHz, 25 MHz, 35 MHz, 45 MHz}, then the intersection of the first and second channel bandwidth combinations is {15 MHz, 25 MHz}.

[0239] In one embodiment, determining the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation based on the first type of signaling is: determining the combination of channel bandwidths supported by the UE during carrier aggregation based on the union of the channel bandwidths supported by the UE indicated by each first type of signaling.

[0240] For example, if the BCS signaling received by the base station is BCS4 and the first type of signaling received is channelBWs-UL-v1590 signaling, the base station determines that the uplink channel bandwidth supported by the UE during carrier aggregation is 70 MHz. Since BCS4 is the full set of channel bandwidths, the 70 MHz indicated by the channelBWs-UL-v1590 signaling is the uplink channel bandwidth supported by the UE during carrier aggregation.

[0241] Exemplarily, the BCS signaling received by the base station is BCS4, and the first type of signaling received is channelBWs-UL signaling and channelBWs-UL-v1590 signaling, then the base station determines that the first type of signaling indicates that the union of the channel bandwidths supported by the UE is a combination of channel bandwidths other than 70MHz. Here, since BCS4 is the full set of channel bandwidths, the base station determines that the uplink bandwidth supported by the UE during carrier aggregation is the intersection of the full set and the combination of channel bandwidths other than 70MHz, that is, it determines that the uplink channel bandwidth supported by the UE during carrier aggregation is a combination of channel bandwidths other than 70MHz.
