Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a communication method, apparatus, terminal, chip, and storage medium. Background Technology
[0002] In wireless communication systems, signal transmission between terminals and the network relies on precise time synchronization. However, due to the influence of various physical layer and clock source factors, it is difficult to achieve perfect timing synchronization between terminals and the network, resulting in timing offset (TO). Timing offset not only affects the correct demodulation and decoding of signals but can also lead to a significant increase in the bit error rate, thereby reducing system performance. Summary of the Invention
[0003] This application proposes a communication method, apparatus, terminal, chip, and storage medium to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in the related art.
[0004] One embodiment of this application proposes a communication method, including:
[0005] A second offset of the radio frequency window is determined based on the first offset and the target timing deviation; wherein, the first offset is used to characterize the time-domain position deviation generated by mapping the main information block (MIB) in the system message of the target cell to the first timing architecture of the serving cell; the target timing deviation is the cumulative timing deviation measured during the reading of the system message;
[0006] The radio frequency window is determined from the first timing system based on the second offset, so as to receive the system message within the radio frequency window.
[0007] Another embodiment of this application provides a communication device, including:
[0008] The first determining module is used to determine a second offset of the radio frequency window based on the first offset and the target timing deviation; wherein, the first offset is used to characterize the time-domain position deviation generated by mapping the main information block (MIB) in the system message of the target cell to the first timing architecture of the serving cell; the target timing deviation is the cumulative timing deviation measured during the reading of the system message;
[0009] A receiving module is configured to determine the radio frequency window from the first timing system based on the second offset, so as to receive the system message within the radio frequency window.
[0010] Another embodiment of this application proposes a terminal, including a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein when the processor executes the program, it implements the communication method as described in the foregoing aspect.
[0011] Another aspect of this application provides a chip including an interface circuit and a processing circuit coupled to each other, the interface circuit being used to input or output signals, and the processing circuit being configured to perform the communication method as described in the preceding aspect.
[0012] In another aspect of this application, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium is provided, on which computer program instructions are stored, which, when executed by a processor, implement the communication method as described in the foregoing aspect.
[0013] Another aspect of this application provides a computer program product having a computer program stored thereon, which, when executed by a processor, implements the communication method as described in the foregoing aspect.
[0014] The communication method, apparatus, terminal, chip, and storage medium proposed in this application use a first offset to characterize the time-domain position deviation of the Tcell's MIB in its own timing system mapped to the Scell timing system (referred to as the first timing system in this application). The target timing deviation is the cumulative timing deviation measured by the terminal during the reading of the Tcell's SI. Based on these two offsets, the offset of the radio frequency window is determined comprehensively. This allows the terminal to accurately predict and locate the radio frequency window for receiving SI without switching the first timing system of the Scell, and to receive the Tcell's SI within that radio frequency window. This not only enables accurate positioning and reception of the Tcell's SI while maintaining the original first timing system of the Scell, avoiding the increased control complexity, hardware resource consumption, and frequent Global Timer operations caused by frequent switching of timing systems in related technologies, but also significantly reduces the terminal's underlying scheduling burden. Furthermore, since the radio frequency window is dynamically adjusted based on the actual measured cumulative timing deviation, its time alignment accuracy is higher, thereby improving the SI reception quality and decoding success rate. Especially in scenarios with multipath propagation, high mobility, or significant interference, this refined time compensation mechanism can effectively improve the robustness and stability of SI readings.

[0027] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.
[0028] In related technologies, the main sources of timing deviation (TO) include the following:
[0029] 1. Timing drift caused by clock asynchrony
[0030] There is a certain frequency deviation and phase jitter between the local clock source of the terminal and the network side, which is more pronounced in low-cost terminals. This clock mismatch leads to timing drift that accumulates over time, affecting symbol alignment in the uplink and downlink.
[0031] 2. Changes in propagation delay caused by terminal mobility
[0032] In high-speed mobile scenarios, the relative positions between the terminal and the network are constantly changing, causing the air interface propagation path length to dynamically adjust, resulting in a real-time shift in propagation delay. This time-varying propagation delay, caused by the Doppler effect and motion speed, is a significant dynamic factor contributing to timing errors.
[0033] 3. Multipath fading and time-varying characteristics of wireless channels
[0034] Wireless channels inherently exhibit multipath propagation and time-varying fading characteristics. Especially in densely populated urban areas or high-interference environments, signals reach the receiver via multiple reflection paths, resulting in multipath spread and energy dispersion. This not only introduces inter-symbol interference but also makes it difficult for the receiver to accurately estimate the signal arrival time, further exacerbating timing deviation problems.
[0035] In related technologies, during the process of receiving downlink data at the terminal, the system periodically estimates the timing deviation based on different pilot signals. Subsequently, the timing control loop dynamically adjusts the hardware timer device—the Global Timer Register (GTR)—based on the estimation results, thereby aligning the system frame header timing with the air interface transmission timing.
[0036] This timing control mechanism plays a crucial role in maintaining uplink and downlink synchronization and ensuring the stability of the communication link, directly affecting the system's demodulation performance, bit error rate, and overall throughput. Therefore, in wireless communication systems, precise timing control is one of the key technologies for ensuring high-quality communication.
[0037] As an example, taking the Master Information Block (MIB) / System Information Block 1 (SIB1) in the System Information (SI) message for reselecting the target cell (Tcell) in idle (IDLE) mode as an example, it can be done as follows: Figure 1The process shown is used to achieve timed tracking and timed control. Specifically, it employs a timing switching strategy between the Serving Cell (Scell) and the Tcell to track the timing deviation of the Tcell, thereby achieving accurate SI reading of the Tcell. This mainly includes the following steps:
[0038] in, Figure 1 RS in this context is short for Reference Signal.
[0039] 1. Based on the timing deviation between Tcell and Scell in the neighbor cell list, the local timing is switched from the Scell timing system to the Tcell timing system. This means that all downlink reception for Tcell will be based on the Tcell timing system.
[0040] 2. In the Tcell timing system, the estimated TO result is directly used for Tcell timing loop adjustment to ensure timing accuracy when receiving Tcell services;
[0041] 3. Once the SI of Tcell is read, the local timer will switch back from the Tcell timer system to the Scell timer system.
[0042] However, the above solution has obvious limitations: it requires switching the local timing back and forth between the Tcell timing system and the Scell timing system. Especially when paging requests from the Scell need to be processed during the MIB and SIB1 reading of the Tcell, it is necessary to immediately switch back to the Scell timing system to complete the paging reception, and then switch back to the Tcell timing system to continue the unfinished operation. This back-and-forth switching not only increases the complexity of the system, but may also lead to excessive operation of the hardware Global Timer, thereby affecting the overall performance and efficiency.
[0043] Therefore, in view of at least one of the problems existing in the above-mentioned related technologies, this application proposes a communication method, device, terminal, chip and storage medium.
[0044] The communication method, apparatus, terminal, chip, and storage medium of this application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Before specifically describing the embodiments of this application, commonly used technical terms are first introduced for ease of understanding:
[0045] CGI is short for Cell Global Identity.
[0046] SI comprises three parts: MIB, Remaining Minimum SI (RMSI, also known as SIB1), and other system message blocks (including SIB2, SIB3, SIB4, SIB5, etc.). SIB2 and subsequent SIBs are also known as OnDemanded SI (OSI).
[0047] SSB is short for Synchronization Signal and PBCH block, where PBCH is short for Physical Broadcast Channel.
[0048] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a communication method provided for an exemplary embodiment of this application.
[0049] It should be noted that the communication method of this application embodiment can be applied to a communication device. In some possible embodiments, the communication device can be configured in a terminal or chip so that the terminal or chip can perform communication functions. Additionally, in some possible embodiments, the communication device can also be software within the terminal.
[0050] In any embodiment of this application, the chip can be integrated into a terminal. The chip includes a Central Processing Unit (CPU), an Image Signal Processing (ISP), an Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), a Digital Signal Processor (DSP), a Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), a System-on-Chip (SOC), a Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC), etc., which will not be listed here.
[0051] In this context, a terminal is a user-side entity used to receive or transmit signals, such as a mobile phone. A terminal can also be called a terminal device (terminal), user equipment (UE), mobile station (MS), mobile terminal device (MT), etc. Terminals can be communication-enabled vehicles, smart cars, mobile phones, wearable devices, tablets, computers with wireless transceiver capabilities, virtual reality (VR) terminals, augmented reality (AR) terminals, wireless terminals in industrial control, wireless terminals in self-driving, wireless terminals in remote medical surgery, wireless terminals in smart grids, wireless terminals in transportation safety, wireless terminals in smart cities, wireless terminals in smart homes, and so on. The embodiments in this application do not limit the specific technology or device form used in the terminal.
[0052] For ease of explanation, the following description will use the terminal as the executing entity of this communication method as an example.
[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, the communication method may include the following steps S201 to S202:
[0054] Step S201: Determine the second offset of the radio frequency window based on the first offset and the target timing deviation; wherein, the first offset is used to characterize the time-domain position deviation generated by the mapping of the MIB in the SI of the target cell to the first timing system of the serving cell; the target timing deviation is the cumulative timing deviation measured during the SI reading process.
[0055] The first offset is used to characterize the temporal position deviation of the MIB in the SI of Tcell when the temporal position is mapped from the Tcell timing system (referred to as the second timing system in this application) to the Scell timing system (referred to as the first timing system in this application).
[0056] The target timing deviation is the cumulative timing deviation measured during the terminal's reading of the SI of the Tcell.
[0057] The radio frequency window, also known as the radio frequency receiving window, is used to receive the SI of the T cell.
[0058] In this embodiment of the application, the terminal can determine the second offset of the radio frequency window based on the first offset and the target timing deviation. For example, the sum of the first offset and the target timing deviation can be used as the second offset of the radio frequency window.
[0059] Step S202: Determine the radio frequency window from the first timing system based on the second offset, so as to receive system messages within the radio frequency window.
[0060] In this embodiment, the terminal can perform radio frequency windowing under the first timing system of Scell according to the second offset of the radio frequency window to obtain the radio frequency window, and receive the system message SI of Tcell within the radio frequency window.
[0061] It should be noted that the technical solution provided in this application is not only applicable to the timing control of the SI pre-reading process of Tcell in cell reselection scenarios, but can also be extended to other timing control scenarios involving the SI reading process of Tcell, such as the timing control of the SI reading process in manually searched cells or CGI cells (i.e., cells with globally unique identifiers), and has good versatility and adaptability.
[0062] The communication method of this application embodiment uses a first offset to characterize the time-domain position deviation of the Tcell's MIB in its own timing system mapped to the Scell's timing system (i.e., the first timing system). The target timing deviation is the cumulative timing deviation measured by the terminal during the reading of the Tcell's SI. Based on these two offsets, the offset of the radio frequency window is determined comprehensively. This allows the terminal to accurately predict and locate the radio frequency window for receiving SI without switching the Scell's first timing system, and to receive the Tcell's SI within that radio frequency window. This not only achieves accurate positioning and reception of the Tcell's SI while maintaining the original Scell's first timing system, avoiding the increased control complexity, hardware resource consumption, and frequent Global Timer operations caused by frequent timing system switching in related technologies, but also significantly reduces the terminal's underlying scheduling burden. Furthermore, since the radio frequency window is dynamically adjusted based on the actual measured cumulative timing deviation, its time alignment accuracy is higher, thereby improving the SI reception quality and decoding success rate. Especially in scenarios with multipath propagation, high mobility, or significant interference, this refined time compensation mechanism can effectively improve the robustness and stability of SI reading.
[0063] As one possible implementation method, Figure 3 A flowchart illustrating another communication method provided for an exemplary embodiment of this application.
[0064] It should be noted that this communication method can be executed alone, or it can be executed together with any embodiment or possible implementation in the embodiments of this application, or it can be executed together with any technical solution in the related technology. The embodiments of this application do not limit this.
[0065] like Figure 3 As shown, the communication method may include the following steps S301 to S305:
[0066] Step S301: Determine the first timing deviation between the target cell and the serving cell based on the neighboring cell measurement information.
[0067] The first timing deviation, also known as the initial timing deviation, originates from neighboring cell measurements. These neighboring cell measurements are triggered periodically.
[0068] In this embodiment, the timing offset between the target cell Tcell and the terminal's serving cell Scell can be determined based on neighbor cell measurement information, which is referred to as the first timing offset in this application.
[0069] For example, the 10ms timing deviation between Tcell and Scell can be determined based on neighbor cell measurement information.
[0070] Step S302: Based on the first timing offset, the time domain position of the MIB in the SI under the second timing system of the target cell is mapped to the first timing system of the serving cell to obtain the mapped position.
[0071] In this embodiment of the application, the time-domain position of the MIB in the SI of the Tcell under the second timing system of the Tcell can be mapped to the first timing system of the Scell based on the first timing deviation to obtain the mapped position.
[0072] As an example, MIB is in such Figure 4 The example shown illustrates the transmission of subframe 1 under the second timing architecture. The time-domain position of the MIB under the second timing architecture includes the frame header position of subframe 1, and the first timing deviation can be... Figure 4 The timing offset can be used to map the frame header position of subframe 1 under the second timing system to the first timing system, thus obtaining the mapped position. For example, the mapped position could be... Figure 4 The position of the dashed line in subframe 1 under the first timing system.
[0073] Step S303: Determine the first offset based on the mapping position.
[0074] The first offset is used to characterize the temporal location deviation generated by the mapping of the MIB in the SI of the Tcell to the first timing system of the serving cell.
[0075] In this embodiment of the application, the first offset can be determined based on the mapping position under the first timing system.
[0076] Using the example above as an example, we can... Figure 4 The positional offset between the mapped position under the first timing system and the frame header position of subframe 1 is used as the first offset. That is, the first offset can be... Figure 4 Rx_offset in.
[0077] In this application, the MIB in the SI of the Tcell can be transmitted in the first subframe under the second timing system. The temporal location of the MIB in the second timing system of the Tcell includes the frame header location of the first subframe. After mapping the frame header location of the first subframe to the first timing system of the Scell based on the first timing offset, the subframe in which the mapped location is located under the first timing system (referred to as the second subframe in this application, e.g.) can be determined. Figure 4 The frame header position of subframe 1) in the mapping is determined, and the first offset is determined based on the position offset between the mapping position and the frame header position of the second subframe.
[0078] In summary, calculating the first offset based on the positional offset between the frame header position of the second subframe where the mapped position is located under the first timing system and the mapped position can improve the rationality and accuracy of the first offset calculation.
[0079] Step S304: Determine the second offset of the RF window based on the first offset and the target timing deviation; wherein, the target timing deviation is the cumulative timing deviation measured during the reading of system messages.
[0080] Step S305: Determine the radio frequency window from the first timing system based on the second offset, so as to receive system messages within the radio frequency window.
[0081] It should be noted that the explanations of steps S304 to S305 can be found in the relevant descriptions in any embodiment of this application, and will not be repeated here.
[0082] In the communication method of this application embodiment, since the reading process of the Tcell's system message takes a period of time and the neighbor cell measurement is periodic, the neighbor cell measurement information (or neighbor cell timing information) may be the measurement result of an earlier moment, making it difficult to accurately reflect the real-time timing deviation between the current Tcell and Scell. Therefore, in the process of reading the Tcell's system message, the Tcell can be timed based on the initial neighbor cell measurement information. By combining the neighbor cell measurement information and the cumulative timing deviation measured during the reading process of the Tcell's system message, the second offset of the radio frequency window can be determined. This can achieve more accurate positioning of the radio frequency window (or radio frequency receiving window), thereby ensuring the decoding performance and reception reliability of the Tcell's system message.
[0083] As one possible implementation method, Figure 5 A flowchart illustrating yet another communication method provided for an exemplary embodiment of this application.
[0084] It should be noted that this communication method can be executed alone, or it can be executed together with any embodiment or possible implementation in the embodiments of this application, or it can be executed together with any technical solution in the related technology. The embodiments of this application do not limit this.
[0085] like Figure 5 As shown, the communication method may include the following steps S501 to S505:
[0086] Step S501: In response to the fact that the data to be received this time includes the MIB in the SI of the target cell, the target timing offset is initialized.
[0087] The target timing deviation is the cumulative timing deviation measured during the terminal's reading of the SI of the Tcell.
[0088] In this embodiment of the application, when the data to be received by the terminal this time includes the MIB in the SI of the Tcell, the target timing deviation can be initialized.
[0089] For example, the target timing deviation can be marked as T_ACC_TO, and T_ACC_TO can be initialized to 0.
[0090] Step S502: Determine the second offset of the RF window based on the sum of the initial target timing deviation and the first offset.
[0091] It should be noted that the explanation of the first offset in any of the foregoing embodiments also applies to this embodiment, and will not be repeated here.
[0092] In this embodiment of the application, the terminal can use the sum of the initialized target timing deviation and the first offset as the second offset of the radio frequency window for receiving the MIB.
[0093] For example, the first offset is marked as Rx_offset, and the second offset of the radio frequency window used to receive the MIB is Rx_offset + T_ACC_TO = Rx_offset.
[0094] Step S503: Under the first timing system of the serving cell, radio frequency windowing is performed based on the second offset to obtain the radio frequency window.
[0095] In this embodiment, the terminal can perform radio frequency windowing based on a second offset within the first timing system of the Scell to obtain a radio frequency window for receiving the MIB. For example, the radio frequency windowing position can be determined based on the second offset and the frame header position of the second subframe.
[0096] by Figure 4 For example, the length of the RF window can be one subframe. In the first timing system, RF windowing can be performed in subframe 1 with an offset of Rx_offset. That is, RF windowing is performed at a time domain position that is Rx_offset away from the frame header position of subframe 1 to obtain the RF window, so as to receive MIB within the RF window.
[0097] In step S504, the MIB is received within the radio frequency window, and the timing of the synchronization signal block SSB associated with the MIB is estimated simultaneously to obtain the second timing deviation.
[0098] Among them, SSB and MIB multiplexed data, such as PBCH and MIB multiplexed data in SSB.
[0099] The second timing deviation is used to characterize the timing deviation between the SSB currently received by the terminal and the air interface of the target cell.
[0100] In this embodiment of the application, the terminal can receive the MIB within the radio frequency window and simultaneously perform timing estimation on the SSB of the Tcell to obtain the second timing deviation.
[0101] Step S505: Update the target timing deviation using the second timing deviation.
[0102] For example, if the second timing deviation is marked as TO1, then T_ACC_TO = T_ACC_TO + TO1 = TO1.
[0103] The communication method of this application embodiment can accurately predict and locate the radio frequency window for receiving the MIB in the SI of the Tcell without switching the first timing system of the Scell, and receive the MIB within the radio frequency window. It can achieve accurate positioning and reception of the MIB while keeping the original first timing system of the Scell unchanged.
[0104] As one possible implementation method, Figure 6 A flowchart illustrating another communication method provided for an exemplary embodiment of this application.
[0105] It should be noted that this communication method can be executed alone, or it can be executed together with any embodiment or possible implementation in the embodiments of this application, or it can be executed together with any technical solution in the related technology. The embodiments of this application do not limit this.
[0106] like Figure 6 As shown, the communication method may include the following steps S601 to S604:
[0107] Step S601: In response to the data to be received including SIBi in the SI of the target cell, determine the second offset of the radio frequency window based on the sum of the most recently updated target timing deviation and the first offset.
[0108] Where i is a positive integer, and the target timing deviation is the cumulative timing deviation measured during the terminal's reading of the SI of the Tcell.
[0109] In this embodiment of the application, when the data to be received by the terminal this time includes SIBi in the SI of the Tcell, the sum of the most recently updated target timing deviation and the first offset can be used as the second offset of the radio frequency window for receiving SIBi.
[0110] For example, if the data to be received this time includes SIB1 in SI, the most recently updated target timing offset T_ACC_TO = TO1, and the second offset of the RF window used to receive SIB1 = Rx_offset + TO1.
[0111] If the data to be received includes SIB2 in SI, the most recently updated target timing offset T_ACC_TO = TO1 + TO2, and the second offset of the RF window used to receive SIB1 (e.g., marked Rx_offset1) = Rx_offset + TO1 + TO2. Here, TO2 is the timing offset obtained by the terminal synchronously estimating the timing of SSB when receiving SIB1.
[0112] If the data to be received includes SIB3 in SI, the most recently updated target timing offset T_ACC_TO = TO1 + TO2 + TO3, and the second offset of the RF window used to receive SIB3 (e.g., marked Rx_offset2) = Rx_offset + TO1 + TO2 + TO3. Here, TO3 is the timing offset obtained by the terminal synchronously estimating the timing of SSB when receiving SIB2.
[0113] Similarly, if the data to be received includes SIBi in SI, the most recently updated target timing deviation T_ACC_TO = TO1 + TO2 + ... + TOi, and the second offset of the RF window used to receive SIBi (e.g., denoted as Rx_offseti) = Rx_offset + TO1 + TO2 + ... + TOi. Here, TOi is the timing deviation obtained by the terminal synchronously estimating the timing of SSB when receiving SIB(i-1).
[0114] In step S602, under the first timing system, RF windowing is performed based on the second offset to obtain the RF window.
[0115] In this embodiment, the terminal can perform radio frequency windowing based on the second offset under the first timing system of Scell to obtain a radio frequency window for receiving SIBi.
[0116] For example, the RF windowing position can be determined based on the second offset and the frame header position of the fourth subframe. Here, SIBi is transmitted in the third subframe under the second timing system, and the fourth subframe is the subframe in which the frame header position of the third subframe is mapped to the mapped position obtained under the first timing system.
[0117] by Figure 4 For example, assuming the data to be received includes SIB1, and the RF window length is one subframe, then the third and fourth subframes are both subframe 5. Under the first timing architecture, RF windowing can be performed in subframe 5 with an offset of Rx_offset1. That is, RF windowing is performed at a time-domain position Rx_offset1 away from the frame header of subframe 5, so that SIB1 can be received within this RF window. Where Rx_offset1 = Rx_offset + T_ACC_TO = Rx_offset + TO1.
[0118] In step S603, SIBi is received within the radio frequency window, and timing estimation of SSB is performed synchronously to obtain the third timing deviation.
[0119] The third timing deviation is used to characterize the timing deviation between the SSB currently received by the terminal and the air interface of the target cell.
[0120] In this embodiment of the application, the terminal can receive SIBi within the radio frequency window and simultaneously perform timing estimation on the SSB of the Tcell to obtain the third timing deviation.
[0121] Step S604: Use the third timing offset to update the target timing offset that was last updated.
[0122] For example, if the third timing deviation is marked as TO(i+1), then T_ACC_TO = T_ACC_TO + TO(i+1).
[0123] The communication method of this application embodiment can accurately predict and locate the radio frequency window of SIBi in the SI of Tcell without switching the first timing system of Scell, and receive SIBi within the radio frequency window. It can achieve accurate location and reception of SIBi while keeping the original first timing system of Scell unchanged.
[0124] As one possible implementation method, taking the cell reselection scenario as an example, Figure 7 A flowchart illustrating another communication method provided for an exemplary embodiment of this application.
[0125] It should be noted that this communication method can be executed alone, or it can be executed together with any embodiment or possible implementation in the embodiments of this application, or it can be executed together with any technical solution in the related technology. The embodiments of this application do not limit this.
[0126] like Figure 7 As shown, the communication method may include the following steps S701 to S703:
[0127] Step S701: Determine the second offset of the radio frequency window based on the first offset and the target timing deviation; wherein, the target timing deviation is the cumulative timing deviation measured during the pre-reading of system messages before initiating cell reselection in idle mode.
[0128] The first offset is used to characterize the temporal position deviation caused by mapping the Master Information Block (MIB) in the system message of the target cell to the first timing architecture of the serving cell.
[0129] Step S702: Determine the radio frequency window from the first timing system based on the second offset, so as to receive system messages within the radio frequency window.
[0130] It should be noted that the explanations of steps S701 to S702 can be found in the relevant descriptions in any embodiment of this application, and will not be repeated here.
[0131] As an application scenario, taking cell reselection as an example, the technical solution provided in this application has at least the following advantages: avoiding the terminal's frequent switching of timing systems between Scell / Tcell, reducing the operation of the GlobalTimer timer device, and simplifying the underlying control; finely tracking the timing deviation of Tcell can effectively improve the decoding success rate of the SI before cell reselection and improve the success rate of cell reselection.
[0132] In other words, before a terminal initiates cell reselection in idle mode, in order to improve the success rate of reselection to the target cell, it will generally perform SI pre-reading of the target cell. Only after the SI pre-reading is successful can the terminal officially reselect to the target cell.
[0133] The initial timing information of the target cell comes from neighboring cell measurements. Since SI pre-reading continues for a period of time and neighboring cell measurements are periodic, the neighboring cell measurement information (or neighboring cell timing information) may be from earlier measurements, making it difficult to accurately reflect the real-time timing deviation between the current Tcell and Scell. Therefore, during the pre-reading of the Tcell's SI, timing tracking and processing of the target cell need to be performed based on the initial neighboring cell measurement information to ensure the decoding performance of the Tcell's SI and improve the Tcell's reselection success rate. The Tcell is a cell with a timing system completely independent of the Scell, and its timing adjustment control is a complex issue.
[0134] In this application, T_ACC_TO can first be defined as the cumulative timing deviation estimated from multiple timings of Tcell during the reselection pre-read process. By applying it to the RF window position during SI reception of Tcell, the timing accuracy of Tcell's SI reception process can be achieved. The specific process mainly includes the following steps:
[0135] 1. Before reselecting a T-cell and reading the T-cell's SI, initialize T_ACC_TO = 0.
[0136] 2. Based on neighboring cell measurement information, obtain the 10ms timing offset between the reselected Tcell and the current Scell.
[0137] 3. Under the first timing architecture of Scell, based on the timing offset, calculate the time-domain position of Tcell's MIB in the second timing architecture of Tcell and its mapping position in the first timing architecture, and determine Rx_offset based on this mapping position. For example... Figure 4 As shown, the mapping position is located in subframe 1 under the first timing system of Scell, and the mapping position is offset from the frame header position of subframe 1 by Rx_offset.
[0138] 4. Under the first timing system of Scell, radio frequency windowing is performed with offset Rx_offset in subframe 1 to complete the MIB data reception of Tcell, and timing estimation based on SSB is performed to obtain timing deviation TO1.
[0139] 5. Update T_ACC_TO = T_ACC_TO + TO1.
[0140] 6. Before the next SI reception of Tcell, update its RF window offset Rx_offset1 = Rx_offset + T_ACC_TO. In this way, by modifying the RF window position of Tcell data reception, the timing estimation deviation value of the previous time is eliminated, ensuring the timing accuracy of Tcell data reception this time.
[0141] 7. Repeat the above operation until the SI reading of Tcell ends. Assuming that the timing deviation estimated by timing the SSB of Tcell for the i-th time is TOi, refresh T_ACC_TO = T_ACC_TO + TOi, and refresh the RF window offset Rx_offseti = Rx_offset + T_ACC_TO for the next Tcell SI reception.
[0142] It should be noted that the above strategy is not only applicable to the timing control of cell reselection scenarios, but also to the timing control of SI reading process in other Tcell scenarios (such as manual network search cells, CGI cells). This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0143] Step S703: Based on the received system message, initiate the reselection process for the target cell.
[0144] In the embodiments of this application, the terminal can initiate a reselection process for the target cell based on the received or pre-read SI.
[0145] The communication method in this application embodiment can effectively improve the decoding success rate of the pre-read SI before cell reselection by finely tracking the cumulative timing deviation of Tcell, thereby improving the reselection success rate of the target cell.
[0146] To implement the above embodiments, this application also proposes a communication device.
[0147] Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a communication device provided for an exemplary embodiment of this application.
[0148] like Figure 8 As shown, the communication device 800 may include a first determining module 810 and a receiving module 820.
[0149] The first determining module 810 is used to determine the second offset of the radio frequency window based on the first offset and the target timing deviation; wherein the first offset is used to characterize the time-domain position deviation generated by mapping the main information block (MIB) in the system message of the target cell to the first timing architecture of the serving cell; the target timing deviation is the cumulative timing deviation measured during the reading of the system message;
[0150] The receiving module 820 is used to determine a radio frequency window from the first timing system based on a second offset, so as to receive system messages within the radio frequency window.
[0151] In one implementation of this application, the first offset is obtained using the following module:
[0152] The second determining module is used to determine the first timing deviation between the target cell and the serving cell based on the neighboring cell measurement information;
[0153] The mapping module is used to map the time-domain position of the MIB in the second timing system of the target cell to the first timing system based on the first timing deviation, so as to obtain the mapped position;
[0154] The third determining module is used to determine the first offset based on the mapping position.
[0155] In one implementation of this application, the MIB is transmitted in the first subframe under the second timing system, and the time domain position includes the frame header position of the first subframe; the third determining module is used to: determine the frame header position of the second subframe where the mapping position is located under the first timing system; and determine a first offset based on the position offset between the mapping position and the frame header position of the second subframe.
[0156] In one implementation of this application, in response to the data to be received including MIB, a first determining module 810 is used to: initialize the target timing deviation; and determine a second offset based on the sum of the initialized target timing deviation and the first offset.
[0157] In one implementation of this application, the receiving module 820 is configured to: perform radio frequency windowing based on a second offset under a first timing system to obtain a radio frequency window; receive the MIB within the radio frequency window and synchronously perform timing estimation on the synchronization signal block SSB associated with the MIB to obtain a second timing deviation; and update the target timing deviation using the second timing deviation.
[0158] In one implementation of this application, the data to be received includes a system message block SIBi, where i is a positive integer; the first determining module 810 is used to: determine a second offset based on the sum of the most recently updated target timing deviation and the first offset.
[0159] In one implementation of this application, the receiving module 820 is configured to: perform radio frequency windowing based on a second offset under a first timing system to obtain a radio frequency window; receive SIBi within the radio frequency window and synchronously perform timing estimation on SSB to obtain a third timing deviation; and use the third timing deviation to update the target timing deviation updated most recently.
[0160] In one implementation of this application, the target timing deviation is the cumulative timing deviation measured during the pre-reading of system messages before initiating cell reselection in idle mode; the communication device 800 further includes:
[0161] The initiation module is used to initiate the reselection process of the target cell based on the received system messages.
[0162] It should be noted that the explanation of the communication method embodiment executed by the terminal described above also applies to the communication device of this embodiment, and will not be repeated here.
[0163] In the communication device of this application embodiment, the first offset is used to characterize the time-domain position deviation of the Tcell's MIB in its own timing system mapped to the Scell's timing system (i.e., the first timing system). The target timing deviation is the cumulative timing deviation measured by the terminal during the reading of the Tcell's SI. Based on these two offsets, the offset of the radio frequency window is comprehensively determined, enabling the terminal to accurately predict and locate the radio frequency window for receiving SI without switching the Scell's first timing system, and to receive the Tcell's SI within that radio frequency window. This not only achieves accurate positioning and reception of the Tcell's SI while maintaining the original Scell's first timing system unchanged, avoiding the increased control complexity, hardware resource consumption, and frequent Global Timer operations caused by frequent timing system switching in related technologies, significantly reducing the terminal's underlying scheduling burden, but also, since the radio frequency window is dynamically adjusted based on the actual measured cumulative timing deviation, its time alignment accuracy is higher, thereby improving the SI reception quality and decoding success rate. Especially in scenarios with multipath propagation, high mobility, or significant interference, this refined time compensation mechanism can effectively improve the robustness and stability of SI reading.
