[0228] Example 3

[0229] Example 3 illustrates a schematic diagram of a wireless protocol architecture for the user plane and control plane according to an embodiment of this application, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 3 As shown. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram illustrating an embodiment of a radio protocol architecture for the user plane 350 and the control plane 300. Figure 3The radio protocol architecture for the control plane 300 used by terminals and IoT devices is illustrated in three layers: Layer 1, Layer 2, and Layer 3. Layer 1 (L1 layer) is the lowest layer and implements various PHY (Physical Layer) signal processing functions. L1 layer will be referred to as PHY301 in this document. Layer 2 (L2 layer) 305 sits above PHY301 and is responsible for the link between the terminal and the IoT device via PHY301. L2 layer 305 includes a MAC (Medium Access Control) sublayer 302, an RLC (RadioLink Control) sublayer 303 (if supported by the IoT device), and a PDCP (Packet Data Convergence Protocol) sublayer 304 (if supported by the IoT device), which terminate at the IoT device. The PDCP sublayer 304 provides multiplexing between different radio bearers and logical channels. The PDCP sublayer 304 also provides security through encrypted data packets and provides mobility support between IoT devices for the terminal device.

[0243] In the transmission from the terminal to the IoT device, upper-layer packets are provided to the controller / processor 440. The controller / processor 440 implements functions of Layer 2 and above. The controller / processor 440 provides packet header compression, encryption, packet segmentation and reordering, multiplexing between logical and transport channels, and radio resource allocation based on various priority metrics. The controller / processor 440 is also responsible for HARQ operation, retransmission of lost packets (if supported), and higher-layer signaling to the IoT device 450. The higher-layer information carried by the first PRDCH in this application is generated in the controller / processor 440. The transmit processor 415 implements various signal processing functions for Layer 1 (i.e., physical layer), including encoding, interleaving, scrambling, modulation, power control / allocation, precoding, and physical layer control signaling generation, such as the physical layer signal carrying the first PRDCH, which is completed in the transmit processor 415. The generated modulation symbols are divided into parallel streams, and each stream is mapped to a corresponding multicarrier subcarrier and / or multicarrier symbol. These are then transmitted by the transmit processor 415 via the transmitter 416 to the antenna 420 as radio frequency (RF) signals. At the receiver, each receiver 456 receives the RF signal through its corresponding antenna 460. Each receiver 456 recovers the baseband information modulated onto the RF carrier (if baseband processing is supported) and provides this baseband information to the receive processor 452. The receive processor 452 implements various signal reception and processing functions of the L1 layer. The signal reception and processing function includes receiving the physical layer signal carrying the first PRDCH in this application, performing various modulation schemes (e.g., On-Off Keying (OOK), Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK), followed by descrambling, decoding, and deinterleaving (if supported) to recover the data or control transmitted by the terminal 410 on the physical channel, and then providing the data and control signals to the controller / processor 490 (if the IoT device supports it). The controller / processor 490 is responsible for the L2 layer and above, and interprets higher-layer information, including the higher-layer information carried by the first PRDCH. The controller / processor may be associated with a memory 480 that stores program code and data. The memory 480 may be referred to as computer-readable media.

[0244] In the transmission from IoT devices to terminals, similar to the transmission from terminals to IoT devices, the higher-layer information carried by the first PDRCH, after being generated by the controller / processor 490 (if supported by the IoT device), is processed by the transmitter processor 455 to perform various signal transmission processing functions for the L1 layer (i.e., physical layer). The transmitter processor 455, including the physical layer signal of the first PDRCH, is mapped to the antenna 460 via the transmitter 456 and transmitted as a radio frequency signal. The receiver 416 receives the radio frequency signal through its corresponding antenna 420. Each receiver 416 recovers the baseband information modulated onto the radio frequency carrier and provides the baseband information to the receiver processor 412. The receiver processor 412 performs various signal reception processing functions for the L1 layer (i.e., physical layer) and then provides data and / or control signals to the controller / processor 440. The controller / processor 440 performs L2 layer functions, including interpreting the higher-layer information. The controller / processor may be associated with a memory 430 that stores program code and data. The memory 430 may be a computer-readable medium.
