Further, a plurality of systems can be applied in combination (for example, a combination of LTE or LTE-A and 5G, or the like).

[0202] Optionally, the AIOT devices can be divided into AIOT devices of type A (Device A), AIOT devices of type B (Device B), and AIOT devices of type C (Device C). Among them, the AIOT devices of type A cannot independently generate / amplify signals, for example, can use the working mode of backscatter. But it does not have the ability to amplify DL signals and / or UL signals. The AIOT devices of type B have energy storage capability, but cannot independently generate signals. For example, it can use the working mode of backscatter. And use the stored energy for DL signal and / or UL signal amplification. The AIOT devices of type A / AIOT devices of type B can use relatively simple modulation and demodulation modes, such as On-Off Keying (OOK) modulation / Phase Shift Keying (PSK) modulation, etc. The AIOT devices of type C have energy storage capability and can independently generate signals, for example, have a radio frequency (RF) module that actively transmits signals. The AIOT devices of type C can also use high-complexity modulation and demodulation modes, such as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) modulation and demodulation. The uplink signal or downlink signal can be amplified.

[0203] Optionally, among the above three types, the Device C has the strongest capability and the highest cost. The Device A has the weakest capability and the lowest cost. In addition, the Device A and the Device B can only use the working mode of backscatter and cannot actively transmit signals. When they need to transmit information, they need to have an external carrier wave (CW) for backscatter to support a smaller coverage range, but the power consumption of the working mode of the Device A / Device B is much smaller than that of the Device C.

[0204] Optionally, based on backscatter operation, the AIOT device needs an energy source (which can also be referred to as a CW node) to provide a carrier wave (CW) for it to reflect while transmitting data. The CW is generally constant in amplitude. The CW node can be a separate node or a base station / intermediate node (such as a UE) in communication with the AIOT device. The AIOT device reflects the received CW, loads the signaling / data to be transmitted onto the reflected wave, and transmits the reflected wave, which is the same frequency as the CW or has a certain frequency offset. At the same time, the CW can also charge the AIOT device. For example, the AIOT device can receive a wireless signal CW, activate the internal receiving processing module, and start working to encode and modulate the signaling / data to be uploaded by the AIOT device.

[0205] Optionally, in AIOT applications, the link and channel of the physical layer are specified (the reader can be a base station or an intermediate UE). R2D represents Reader-to-Device. D2R represents Device-to-Reader. CW2D represents carrier-wave-to-device.

[0206] Optionally, for AIOT devices that cannot actively transmit, an external carrier wave CW can be provided to the AIOT device for backscatter of the AIOT device. When the carrier wave CW is provided by an access network device (such as a base station) or an intermediate node terminal (such as an intermediate node UE) contained in the topology, it can be considered that the carrier wave CW is from inside the topology (CW from inside topology); when the carrier wave CW is provided by a node outside the topology, it can be considered that the carrier wave CW is from outside the topology (CW from outside topology).

[0207] Optionally, AIOT can also be referred to as passive IoT, environmental IoT, etc. AIOT devices can also be referred to as passive IoT devices, environmental IoT devices, etc., without limitation.

[0208] In related technologies, resources suitable for charging and / or carrying information and / or backscatter signals for terminals are not supported, which affects the performance of the AIOT system.

[0209] FIG. 2A is an interaction diagram of a communication control method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2A, the embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a communication control method, which can be used in the communication system 100, and the method comprises the following steps:

[0210] In step S2101, the terminal sends third information to the first device.

[0211] The first device can be, for example, an access network device serving the terminal. The first device can be, for example, a base station serving the terminal. The first device can also be referred to as a first node, a first node device, a first communication device, etc., without limitation.

[0212] The third information is used to indicate that the terminal supports sending the first signal. The first signal is used for at least one of the following: charging, carrying information, and backscattering.

[0213] In some embodiments, the first signal can be used for at least one of the following: charging, carrying information, backscattering, and the specific function of the first signal can be configured according to the actual AIOT application requirements, without limitation.

[0215] In some embodiments, the third information is, for example, information indicating that the UE supports the CW. The third information can indicate, for example, that the terminal supports sending the first signal, the power of the terminal supporting sending the first signal, the resource information of the first signal supported by the terminal, etc., without limitation.

[0216] In some embodiments, the terminal can indicate to the first device that the terminal supports sending the first signal by sending the third information to the first device, so that the first device can authorize the terminal to send the first signal based on the third information.

[0217] In step S2102, the first device selects a second device according to the third information.

[0218] The second device can be an access network device or a core network device. The second device can also be referred to as a second node, a second node device, a second communication device, etc., without limitation. For example, the second device can be a core network node (such as an Access and Management Function (AMF) network element), a source base station, a last serving base station (gNB), without limitation.

[0219] In some embodiments, in the AIOT application scenario, there can be multiple second devices, and the first device can refer to the third information reported by the terminal to select a suitable second device for the terminal to authorize the terminal to send the first signal. For example, the third information reported by the terminal can be referred to to determine the location area of the terminal, and a suitable second device is selected based on the location area, and the selected second device authorizes the terminal to send the first signal.

[0220] In step S2103, the first device sends the third information to the second device.

[0221] The second device is the second device selected by the first device in step S2102.

[0222] In some embodiments, the first device can indicate to the second device the case that the terminal supports sending the first signal by sending the third information to the second device, so that the second device obtains information for authorizing the terminal to send the first signal according to the case that the terminal supports sending the first signal.

[0223] In step S2104, the second device determines and sends the first information to the first device according to the third information.

[0224] The first information is used to indicate whether the terminal is authorized to send the first signal.

[0225] In some embodiments, the first information includes at least one of the following: first indication information, resource configuration information of authorization, time information of authorization, and location area of authorization. The first indication information is used to indicate whether the terminal is authorized to send the first signal. In this way, the comprehensiveness of the first information indication can be improved, and various contents contained in the first information can be personalized according to the actual AIOT application scenario requirements to support improving the AIOT application flexibility.

[0226] In some embodiments, the first indication information can be an indication field, and different values can be configured for the indication field. One value is used to indicate that the terminal is authorized to send the first signal, and another value is used to indicate that the terminal is not authorized to send the first signal. For example, the first indication information can be, for example, CW authorization indication information. The CW authorization indication information can include two code points {authorized, not-authorized}, for example. Authorized indicates that the terminal is authorized to send CW. Not-authorized indicates that the terminal is not authorized to send CW, which is not limited.

[0227] In some embodiments, the authorized resource configuration information is used to indicate resources that the terminal is authorized to use to operate as an intermediate node (e.g., to transmit the first signal). The resources can be, for example, bandwidth resources, or specific spectrum resources. The first device can allocate resources to the terminal according to the authorized resource configuration information.

[0228] In some embodiments, the authorized time information is used to indicate an authorized time for the terminal to operate as an intermediate node (e.g., to transmit the first signal). The authorized time can be, for example, a time interval. The first device can allocate resources to the terminal within the authorized time indicated by the authorized time information, so that the terminal performs the AIOT-related operation (e.g., transmits the first signal) within the authorized time.

[0229] In some embodiments, the authorized location area is used to indicate an authorized location for the terminal to operate as an intermediate node (e.g., to transmit the first signal). The authorized location area can be, for example, a list of cells, a list of tracking areas (TAs), or a list of public land mobile networks (PLMNs). The first device can cause the terminal to transmit the first signal to perform the AIOT-related operation when the terminal is in the authorized location area.

[0230] In some embodiments, the second device can determine the first information based on the third information, and send the first information to the first device. For example, the second device can receive the CW support information (an optional example of the third information) sent by the first device, and initiate a corresponding authentication or authorization process based on the CW support information. The second device can obtain the CW authorization information (an optional example of the first information) of the UE based on the authentication or authorization process.

[0231] In step S2105, the first device configures resources of the first signal according to the first information.

[0232] In some embodiments, after determining the first information, the second device can send the first information to the first device. The first device can receive the first information sent by the second device.

[0233] In some embodiments, the first indication information in the first information can indicate that the terminal is authorized to transmit the first signal. The first information can further include authorized resource configuration information, and / or authorized time information, and / or an authorized location area. The first device can configure resources of the first signal according to the authorized resource configuration information, and / or the authorized time information, and / or the authorized location area.

[0234] For example, if the first information includes authorized resource configuration information, the authorized resource configuration information is used to indicate the resource authorized for the terminal to work as an intermediate node (e.g., to send the first signal). The first device can select part of the bandwidth resource from the authorized bandwidth resource, or select part of the spectrum resource from the authorized spectrum resource, and configure the resource to the first signal. If the first information includes authorized time information, the first device can determine the authorized time for the terminal to work as an intermediate node (e.g., to send the first signal) based on the authorized time information. For example, the authorized time can be a time interval. The first device can allocate the resource to the terminal within the authorized time indicated by the authorized time information, so that the terminal performs the AIOT-related operation (e.g., sends the first signal) within the authorized time. If the first information includes an authorized location area, the first device can determine the authorized location for the terminal to work as an intermediate node (e.g., to send the first signal) based on the authorized location area. Then, the first device can configure the terminal with the authorized at least part of the spectrum resource and / or the authorized at least part of the bandwidth resource when the terminal is in the authorized location area, so that the terminal sends the first signal in the authorized location area to perform the AIOT-related operation. In addition, the first device can also refer to a combination of at least two of the authorized resource configuration information, the authorized time information, and the authorized location area to implement the configuration of the resource of the first signal, and no limitation is made thereto.

[0235] In some embodiments, the first device configures the resource of the first signal according to the first information, and the first device can further send fourth information to the second device, where the fourth information is used to indicate the configured resource of the first signal. The second device can perform the AIOT-related operation by using the fourth information. The AIOT-related operation can be, for example, inventory, positioning (finding objects), sensing, command, and the like.

[0236] For example, the fourth information can be CW resource configuration information (also referred to as CW resource configuration).

[0237] That is, the first device can indicate the resource configured for the first signal to the second device by sending the fourth information to the second device.

[0238] In some embodiments, the fourth information includes at least one of the following: resource identification of the first signal; and resource configuration information of the first signal. In this way, the accuracy and flexibility of the indication of the resource of the first signal can be effectively improved, and the individualized AIOT application scenarios can be effectively adapted.

[0239] The resource identifier of the first signal is used to identify the resource configured for the terminal to send the first signal. The resource can be, for example, a time domain resource and / or a frequency domain resource. The resource identifier of the first signal can be, for example, a CW resource identifier. The resource configuration information of the first signal is used to describe information related to the resource configured for the terminal to send the first signal. The resource configuration information of the first signal can be, for example, CW time-frequency resource configuration information (which can also be referred to as CW time-frequency resource configuration), without limitation.

[0240] In some embodiments, the second device can send fifth information to the first device, the fifth information being used to activate the first signal transmission of the terminal, and the first device can receive the fifth information and trigger the activation of the first signal transmission of the terminal according to the fifth information. For example, the first device can send an activation instruction to the terminal in response to receiving the fifth information, and the terminal can initiate the first signal transmission upon receiving the activation instruction. In this way, the activation control of the first signal transmission of the terminal can be realized on demand.

[0241] In some embodiments, the fifth information includes at least one of the following: a resource type; a resource identifier of the first signal; and an activation time. In this way, the accuracy and flexibility of the activation control can be improved.

[0242] The resource type can be, for example, periodic, semi-periodic, or aperiodic. The resource identifier of the first signal is used to identify the resource of the first signal. The resource identifier of the first signal can be, for example, a CW resource identifier. The resource identifier of the first signal can be used to indicate the first signal resource to be activated. The activation time is used to describe a time range or a time point. The transmission of the first signal is activated within the corresponding time range or at the corresponding time point.

[0243] In some embodiments, the second device can send sixth information to the first device, the sixth information being used to deactivate the first signal transmission of the terminal. The first device can receive the sixth information and trigger the deactivation of the first signal transmission of the terminal according to the sixth information. For example, the first device can send a deactivation instruction to the terminal in response to receiving the sixth information, and the terminal can deactivate the transmission of the first signal upon receiving the deactivation instruction. In this way, the deactivation control of the first signal transmission of the terminal can be realized on demand.

[0244] In some embodiments, the sixth information includes at least one of the following: a resource identifier of the first signal; and second indication information, wherein the second indication information is used to indicate to release all first signal resources of the terminal. In this way, the accuracy and flexibility of the deactivation control can be improved.

[0245] The resource identifier of the first signal in the sixth information is used to identify the resource of the first signal. The resource identifier of the first signal may, for example, be a CW resource identifier. The resource identifier of the first signal in the sixth information can be used to indicate the first signal resource to be deactivated. The second indication information is used to indicate the release of all first signal resources of the terminal. The second indication information may, for example, be a full release indication. After receiving the sixth information, the terminal can deactivate the transmission of the first signal according to the content indicated in the sixth information. For example, if the sixth information contains the resource identifier of the first signal, the terminal can determine the first signal resource based on the resource identifier of the first signal, and deactivate the first signal transmission scheduling the first signal resource. If the sixth information contains the second indication information, the terminal can deactivate all first signal transmissions based on the second indication information.

[0247] In the present embodiment or example, each step can be independently combined or exchanged in order, and optional modes or examples can be combined arbitrarily, and can be combined with any step of other embodiments or other examples.

[0248] In the present embodiment, appropriate resources can be supported for the terminal to send energy and / or bearer information and / or backscatter signal allocation, thereby improving the performance of the AIOT system, and the appropriate second device can be selected for the terminal based on the third information of the terminal. The selected second device can authorize the terminal to send the first signal, and appropriate resources can be allocated for the first signal in the process of authorizing the terminal to send the first signal, so as to improve the resource allocation effect and ensure the safety of AIOT related operations.

[0249] It should be noted that in the following embodiments, the description of the same or corresponding terms and method steps as in the above embodiments can be referred to the above embodiments, and the following will not be repeated.

[0261] In some embodiments, if the resource type is periodic, the terminal can start transmitting the first signal after obtaining the allocated resource.

[0262] In some embodiments, if the resource type is semi-periodic or aperiodic, the terminal can first save the allocated resource after obtaining the allocated resource.

The resource identification of the first signal in the sixth information can be used to indicate the first signal resource to be deactivated. The second indication information is used to indicate releasing all first signal resources of the terminal. The second indication information may, for example, be a full release indication. After receiving the sixth information, the terminal can implement the deactivation of the first signal transmission according to the content indicated in the sixth information. For example, if the sixth information contains the resource identification of the first signal, the terminal can determine the first signal resource based on the resource identification of the first signal and deactivate the first signal transmission scheduling the first signal resource. If the sixth information contains the second indication information, the terminal can deactivate all first signal transmissions based on the second indication information.

[0440] The following is an example illustrating the specific embodiments described above:

[0441] As shown in FIG. 7A, FIG. 7A is an application diagram in an embodiment of the present disclosure, in which the CW resource is allocated in the authorization process. Take a first device (or a first node) as a base station (gNB), a second device (or a second node) as a core network node (CN), and a terminal as a UE for example.

[0442] Step 101, the UE sends an RRC message to the gNB.

[0443] In some embodiments, the RRC message can also be referred to as an RRC message. The RRC message can include CW support information (CW support info). The CW support information is one optional example of the third information described above.

[0444] In some embodiments, the UE can send the RRC message to the gNB when accessing the network, wherein the RRC message can include the CW support information. The CW support information can be used for the gNB to perform core network node selection (for example, access and mobility management function (AMF) selection).

[0445] In some embodiments, the RRC message is an RRC setup complete message.

[0446] In some embodiments, the gNB selects a suitable core network node for the UE according to the CW support information (this procedure can be referred to as CN selection), for example, the suitable core network node is a core network node that can support the acquisition of CW authorization information (an optional example of the first information).

[0447] At step 102, the gNB sends an NGAP message (including the CW support information) to the selected core network node (CN).

[0448] In some embodiments, the NGAP message can be referred to as an NGAP message.

[0449] In some embodiments, the NGAP message can be referred to as an NGAP message.

[0450] In some embodiments, the NGAP message can be an initial UE message message.

[0451] At step 103, the core network node (CN) sends an NGAP message (including the CW authorization information) to the gNB.

[0452] In some embodiments, the NGAP message can be an initial UE message message.

[0453] In some embodiments, the NGAP message can be an initial UE message message.

[0454] In some embodiments, the NGAP message can be an initial UE message message.

[0455] CW authorization indication information, used to indicate whether the UE is authorized to work as a CW;

[0456] In some embodiments, the CW authorization information is a CW authorization indication information, i.e., {authorized, not-authorized};

[0457] In some embodiments, the CW authorization information is a CW authorization indication information, i.e., {authorized, not-authorized};

[0458] Authorized time information, used to indicate the authorized time for the UE to work as an intermediate node, which can be a time interval, for example. Wherein, the gNB only allocates resources to the UE within the authorized time for AIoT related operations.

[0459] Authorized location area, used to indicate the authorized location for the UE to work as an intermediate node, which can be a cell list, a TA list, or a PLMN list, for example. Wherein, the gNB can only allow the UE to work as a CW to perform AIoT related operations when the UE is in the authorized location area.

[0460] Step 104, the core network node (CN) sends a NAS message (CW authorization information) to the UE.

[0461] In some embodiments, the NAS message can be referred to as a NAS message.

[0462] Wherein, the CW authorization information is included in the NGAP message, and the UE determines whether it can work as a CW node according to the CW authorization information.

[0463] Wherein, the CW authorization information is consistent with that described in step 103, which will not be repeated here.

[0464] As shown in FIG. 7B, FIG. 7B is an application diagram in another embodiment of the present disclosure, in which the CW resource is allocated in the resource request process. Taking a first device (or a first node) as a base station (gNB), a third device (or a third node) as a core network node (CN) / base station (gNB) / UE, a terminal as a UE, and other devices as (Device), the Device can be charged and / or carry information and / or backscatter based on the CE sent by the UE.

[0465] Step 201, the gNB receives a CW resource request from the CN / gNB.

[0466] In some embodiments, the CW resource request can also be referred to as a CW resource request. The CW resource request is an optional example of the above-mentioned second information.

[0467] In some embodiments, when there is an AIoT related task, the first node (gNB) receives a CW resource request from the third node (core network node (CN) / base station (gNB) / UE).

[0468] In some embodiments, the gNB can check the CW authorization information, perform UE selection and / or resource allocation.

[0469] The CW resource request can include at least one of the following:

[0470] In some embodiments, the gNB receives a CW resource request from a UE or other base station for requesting a CW resource. The gNB decides whether to allocate the requested resource to the UE and / or how to allocate the resource according to the request and / or CW authorization information.

[0471] In some embodiments, the gNB receives a CW resource request from a core network, wherein the request can include an identity of a UE requesting to perform an operation (i.e., the core network has selected the UE) or information of a requested resource, etc. The gNB decides whether to select the UE as a CW node (i.e., the base station performs UE selection) and allocates the requested resource to the UE and / or how to allocate the resource according to the CW resource request and / or CW authorization information.

[0472] Step 202, the gNB allocates a CW resource.

[0473] In some embodiments, the allocated CW resource can be referred to as a CW resource allocation.

[0474] In some embodiments, the first node can send the allocated CW resource to the UE, and the UE transmits a CW according to the allocated CW resource.

[0475] In some embodiments, if the resource type of the CW is periodic, the UE starts CW transmission after obtaining the configuration.

[0476] In some embodiments, if the resource type of the CW is semi-periodic or aperiodic, the UE saves the configuration after obtaining the configuration, and determines to activate or deactivate CW transmission according to a network indication.
