Those skilled in the art can know that, as the system architecture evolves and new business scenarios appear, the technical solutions proposed in the present disclosure are also applicable to similar technical problems.

[0197] The following embodiments of the present disclosure can be applied to the communication system 100 illustrated in FIG. 1A, or part of the subjects, but are not limited thereto. The subjects illustrated in FIG. 1A are examples, and the communication system can include all or part of the subjects in FIG. 1A, or other subjects other than those in FIG. 1A.

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

[0199] Optionally, in order to realize the Internet of Things communication, a new low-power ambient Internet of Things (A-IoT) device is introduced. The newly introduced A-IoT device does not need to be configured with a battery and replace the battery, nor does it need to generate energy itself. It can collect energy from the outside world, such as collecting energy based on signals sent by the surrounding environment or surrounding devices, and can communicate based on the collected energy.

[0200] Optionally, the A-IoT device described above can communicate with the terminal and / or network device based on the energy collected from the outside world. For example, the A-IoT device can use a backscatter working mode to send information to the terminal and / or network device, or the A-IoT device can use an active sending working mode to send information to the terminal and / or network device. Optionally, the "backscatter working mode" described above can be, for example, that the terminal and / or network device first sends a continuous wave (CW) signal to the A-IoT device, and the A-IoT device adjusts the matching between the receiving antenna and the impedance according to the information to be sent, enhances the reflection of the incident CW signal, and modulates the perception data obtained by itself onto the reflected signal to complete the sending of data. Optionally, the "active sending working mode" described above can be understood as, for example, actively generating and actively sending signals without CW signal excitation. The A-IoT device can actively generate and actively send signals based on the energy stored in the A-IoT device, and the energy stored in the A-IoT device can be the energy previously charged by the terminal and / or network device for the A-IoT device.

[0201] Optionally, the A-IoT device described above has multiple different device types, such as a first type of A-IoT device, a second type of A-IoT device, and a third type of A-IoT device. Different types of A-IoT devices correspond to different capabilities.

[0202] Optionally, the first type of A-IoT device has energy storage capability but does not have independent signal generation and amplification capability, and its uplink transmission depends on backscatter transmission. That is, the first type of A-IoT device needs to use a backscatter working mode to send signals to the terminal and / or network device, and its complexity and cost are the lowest and its power consumption is very small.

[0203] Optionally, the second type of A-IoT device has energy storage capability and has independent signal amplification capability, and its uplink transmission depends on backscatter transmission. That is, the second type of A-IoT device can use a backscatter working mode to send signals to the terminal and / or network device, and can also perform power amplification on the transmitted signals.

[0204] Optionally, the third type A-IoT device has energy storage capability and has independent signal amplification capability, and the uplink transmission can be transmitted based on the internally generated signal; that is, the third type A-IoT device can actively send a signal to the terminal and / or network device based on the internally generated signal.

[0205] Alternatively, optionally, the device type of the A-IoT device can be “backscattering” and “non-backscattering”, where “backscattering” can refer to transmitting a signal based on backscattering, and “non-backscattering” can refer to actively transmitting a signal. It should be noted that the above-mentioned device type is only an example, and there can be other forms of naming device types, which are not specifically limited by the present disclosure.

[0206] Optionally, the A-IoT device described above can be applied to various different communication architectures in a communication system, where FIGS. 1B-1F are schematic diagrams of the architecture of the A-IoT device in communication according to embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0207] Optionally, as shown in FIG. 1B, the A-IoT device (i.e., Ambient IoT device in FIG. 1B) and the network device (such as a base station (BS)) can directly receive and transmit data.

[0208] Optionally, as shown in FIG. 1C, the A-IoT device and the network device (such as a base station (BS)) can indirectly receive and transmit data through an intermediate node, where the intermediate node can be a relay, an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) device, a terminal, a repeater.

[0209] Optionally, as shown in FIG. 1D, the A-IoT device and the network device (such as a base station (BS)) can directly transmit uplink data, and the A-IoT device and the network device (such as a base station (BS)) can indirectly transmit downlink data through an intermediate node.

[0210] Optionally, as shown in FIG. 1E, the A-IoT device and the network device (such as a base station (BS)) can directly transmit downlink data, and the A-IoT device and the network device (such as a base station (BS)) can indirectly transmit uplink data through an intermediate node.

[0211] Optionally, as shown in FIG. 1F, the A-IoT device and the terminal (or user equipment (UE)) can directly receive and send data, and the terminal can be responsible for collecting data of the A-IoT device and forwarding the collected data to the network device.

[0212] Optionally, in some embodiments, the network device, the terminal, and the intermediate node in FIGS. 1B-1F can be collectively referred to as a Reader.

[0213] Optionally, the data transmitted between the Reader and the A-IoT device can include three types: DO-DTT, DT, and DO-A. Optionally, DO-DTT (Device-originated-device-terminated triggered) can be understood as data triggered based on the Reader, such as inventory. DT (Device-terminated) can be understood as an access command. DO-A (Device-originated-autonomous) can be understood as data actively sent by the A-IoT device, such as sensor function triggered active reporting.

[0214] Optionally, the DO-A data described above can be data actively sent by the A-IOT device when applied to an autonomous driving scenario (such as a speed detection, vehicle fault detection, etc. scenario). Optionally, the vehicle parts of the A-IOT device can be loaded with multiple integrated sensors. When the data (such as pressure, resistance, temperature, etc.) detected by the integrated sensors exceeds a measurement threshold, the A-IOT device can send DO-A data to actively initiate communication for alarm, or when the speed of the vehicle exceeds a certain threshold, the A-IOT device can also send DO-A data to actively initiate alarm. The A-IOT device can also be applied to a smart home scenario, such as fire, gas leakage, indoor water leakage, etc. detection. When an accident is detected, the A-IOT device can send DO-A data to actively initiate alarm.

[0215] Therefore, from the above, it can be known that the DO-A data can be some urgent data, which usually needs to be processed in priority. Therefore, the Reader usually needs to distinguish the DO-A data from non-DO-A data, or distinguish the urgent data from non-urgent data. However, there is currently no method for the Reader to distinguish the DO-A data from non-DO-A data or distinguish the urgent data from non-urgent data.

[0216] FIG. 2A is an interaction schematic diagram of a determination method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2A, the embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a determination method for the communication system 100; the above method comprises:

[0217] Step 2101, the first device and the second device determine the first resource and / or the second resource.

[0221] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first type can be used to indicate that the first information is information actively sent by the second device, and the second type can be used to indicate that the first information is information not actively sent by the second device; for example, the first type can be DO-A data, and the DO-A data can be sensor function triggered active reporting, for example. The second device can be applied to an automatic driving scenario, such as speed detection, vehicle fault detection, etc. When the vehicle parts load multiple integrated sensors of the second device (i.e., IoT devices), the second device initiates communication actively when a measurement threshold (such as pressure, resistance, temperature, etc.) is exceeded, or when the speed of the vehicle running exceeds a certain threshold, the second device can also actively initiate an alarm. The second type can be non-DO-A data. For example, the non-DO-A data can refer to data sent based on a trigger of the first device, for example, the non-DO-A data can include DO-DTT data and / or DT data. Optionally, the DO-DTT data can be understood as data triggered based on a Reader, such as D2R transmission in an inventory process. For example, the DO-DTT data can include, but is not limited to, Msg1 (message 1) or Msg3 (message 3), for example. Optionally, Msg1 can be a 16-bit random number, and Msg3 can include a second device identifier, such as an Electronic Product Code (EPC), an electronic product code, or an identifier allocated by a core network, etc. The DT (Device-terminated) data can be understood as D2R transmission in an access command process. For example, the access command can include, but is not limited to, a read command reply, a write command reply, a kill command reply, a disable command reply, etc. In other embodiments, the first type can be used to indicate that the first information contains emergency information, and the second type can be used to indicate that the first information contains non-emergency information. Optionally, the DO-A data can also include emergency DO-A data and non-emergency DO-A data. In some embodiments, the first type can be used to indicate that the first information contains emergency information, such as emergency DO-A data, and the second type can be used to indicate that the first information contains non-emergency information, such as non-emergency DO-A data and / or non-DO-A data. Optionally, the above-mentioned “DO-A data, non-DO-A data”, “emergency DO-A data, non-emergency DO-A data, non-DO-A data” are only examples and can have other names, for example, the first type is an emergency type, and the second type is a non-emergency type. The present disclosure does not make specific limitations on this.

[0222] In some embodiments, the first device can determine the first resource and / or the second resource based on protocol convention; in some other embodiments, the first device can determine the first resource and / or the second resource autonomously. In some embodiments, the first device can configure or pre-configure the first resource and / or the second resource to the second device, in some embodiments, the first device can dynamically indicate the first resource and / or the second resource to the second device, for example, in a reader-to-device (R2D) transmission sent by the first device to the second device. In some embodiments, the first device can configure or pre-configure the first resource to the second device. In some embodiments, the first device can dynamically indicate the second resource to the second device, for example, in a reader-to-device (R2D) transmission sent by the first device to the second device. Wherein, the configuration or pre-configuration can be semi-static configuration or pre-configuration of the first resource and / or the second resource, for example, semi-static configuration through radio resource control (RRC) signaling or other signaling, or pre-configuration to the second device when the second device is manufactured. Optionally, the indication of the first resource and / or the second resource by the first device through the R2D transmission can be understood as dynamic indication of the first resource and / or the second resource, for example, one R2D transmission can indicate the first resource and / or the second resource of the next D2R transmission. The present disclosure does not make specific limitation on how to configure or pre-configure the first resource and / or the second resource, and does not make specific limitation on how to dynamically indicate the first resource and / or the second resource. Optionally, the above-mentioned first resource and / or the second resource can be transmitted through the PDRCH channel or a new channel.

[0223] In some embodiments, the second device can determine the first resource and / or the second resource based on a protocol agreement, in some other embodiments, the second device can receive the first resource and / or the second resource configured by the first device, in yet some other embodiments, the second device can receive the first resource and / or the second resource pre-configured by the first device. In yet some other embodiments, the second device can receive the first resource and / or the second resource dynamically indicated by the first device. Optionally, the second device can receive the first resource configured or pre-configured by the first device, and the second device can receive the second resource dynamically indicated by the first device. In some embodiments, the above-mentioned configuration or pre-configuration can be a semi-static configuration or pre-configuration of the first resource and / or the second resource, for example, the second device can receive the first resource and / or the second resource semi-statically configured by the first device through RRC signaling or other signaling, or can be pre-configured to the second device when the second device is manufactured. Optionally, the above-mentioned dynamic indication can mean that the second device receives the first resource and / or the second resource indicated by the first device in an R2D transmission, for example, one R2D transmission can indicate the first resource and / or the second resource of the next D2R transmission. Optionally, the present disclosure does not make specific limitation on how the second device receives the first resource and / or the second resource configured or pre-configured by the first device, and does not make specific limitation on how the second device receives the first resource and / or the second resource dynamically indicated by the first device.

[0224] Optionally, the first resource and / or the second resource can be periodic or aperiodic.

[0225] Optionally, the above-mentioned first resource and / or the second resource can include at least one of the following: a channel, a time domain resource, a frequency domain resource, a code domain resource, a space domain resource. For example, the above-mentioned first resource and / or the second resource can be interpreted as a set of physical layer air interface resources, such as a set of time / frequency / code / space resources. Alternatively, the above-mentioned first resource and / or the second resource can include one or more slots, or can include one or more access occasions.

[0226] Optionally, the first resource and the second resource can satisfy at least one of the following: the first resource and the second resource are different in time domain, and the first resource and the second resource are different in frequency domain. That is, the first resource and the second resource can be different in time domain, or the first resource and the second resource can be different in frequency domain, or the first resource and the second resource can be different in both time domain and frequency domain. Optionally, the above-mentioned “different” can mean completely no overlap, or partially overlap.

[0227] For example, the first resource and the second resource are different in time domain, which means that the time domain resources occupied by the first resource and the second resource are different, for example, the time domain resources occupied by the first resource and the second resource do not overlap, for example, the time slots occupied by the first resource and the second resource are different. Meanwhile, the frequency domain resources occupied by the first resource and the second resource can be partially the same or completely the same, for example, the frequency domain resources occupied by the first resource and the second resource can partially overlap or completely overlap.

[0228] For example, the first resource and the second resource are different in frequency domain, which means that the frequency domain resources occupied by the first resource and the second resource are different, for example, the frequency domain resources occupied by the first resource and the second resource do not overlap, for example, the frequency spectrum / band / frequency / band occupied by the first resource and the second resource are different. Meanwhile, the time domain resources occupied by the first resource and the second resource can be partially the same or completely the same, for example, the time domain resources occupied by the first resource and the second resource can partially overlap or completely overlap.

[0229] For example, the first resource and the second resource are different in frequency domain and time domain, which means that the frequency domain resources occupied by the first resource and the second resource are different, and the time domain resources occupied by the first resource and the second resource are different, for example, the time domain resources occupied by the first resource and the second resource do not overlap, and the frequency domain resources occupied by the first resource and the second resource do not overlap, for example, the time slots occupied by the first resource and the second resource are different, and the frequency spectrum / band / frequency / band occupied by the first resource and the second resource are different.

[0230] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first resource cannot be used to transmit the first information of the second type, and the second resource cannot be used to transmit the first information of the first type. In some embodiments, the first device can distinguish whether the first information is of the first type or of the second type by receiving the resource of the first information, for example, the type of the first information received by the first device on the first resource is of the first type, and the type of the first information received by the first device on the second resource is of the second type.

[0231] Optionally, the first resource can support time division multiplexing and / or frequency division multiplexing. For example, one access occasion of the first resource can support one or more second devices to send the first information of the first type in the same access occasion through time division multiplexing and / or frequency division multiplexing. It should be noted that the access occasion can also be referred to as slot, access slot or other names, and the disclosure does not make specific limitations on the name.

[0232] Step 2102, the second device sends the first information to the first device.

[0233] Optionally, when the type of the first information is the first type, the second device can send the first information to the first device by using the first resource, and when the type of the first information is the second type, the second device can send the first information to the first device by using the second resource.

[0234] In some embodiments, before the second device sends the first information to the first device, the first device usually needs to periodically or non-periodically perform an R2D transmission to the second device, and after the second device receives the R2D transmission, the second device can perform time synchronization based on the R2D transmission to determine the starting time domain position or boundary of the D2R transmission of the second device to the first device. Optionally, the starting time domain position of the D2R transmission of the second device to the first device can be understood as the starting time domain position or boundary of the access occasion when the second device sends the first information to the first device.

[0235] Step 2103: The first device determines the type of the first information.

[0236] Optionally, when the first information is sent by the first resource, the first device can determine that the type of the first information is the first type, and when the first information is sent by the second resource, the first device can determine that the type of the first information is the second type.

[0237] In summary, the first device receives the first information sent by the second device and determines the type of the first information. The second device can be an IoT device or an environmental IoT device, and the type of the first information can include a first type (such as an emergency type) and / or a second type (such as a non-emergency type), or the type of the first information can include a first type (DO-A type) and / or a second type (non-DO-A type). Therefore, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for the first device to determine whether the first information from the environmental IoT device or the IoT device belongs to the emergency type or the non-emergency type, so that the first device can preferentially process the first information of the emergency type, and ensure that the emergency situation can be preferentially handled.

In some embodiments, the first indication information can be 1-bit indication information, which is set to 1 to indicate that the first information contains DO-A data, or set to 0 to indicate that the first information contains non-DO-A data, or set to 1 to indicate that the first information contains non-DO-A data, or set to 0 to indicate that the first information contains DO-A data. In some embodiments, the first indication information can be 1-bit indication information, which is set to 1 to indicate that the first information contains emergency data, or set to 0 to indicate that the first information contains non-emergency data, or set to 1 to indicate that the first information contains non-emergency data, or set to 0 to indicate that the first information contains emergency data.

[0246] In some embodiments, the first indication information can be more than 1 bit indication information, for example, 2 bit indication information, set as 00 to indicate that the type of the first information is MSG1 in the random access process, the MSG1 can be a 16 bit random number, set as 01 to indicate that the type of the first information is MSG3 in the random access process, the MSG3 can include a second device identifier and / or data, the second device identifier can include, for example, an EPC or a core network identifier or other forms of second device identifier, set as 10 to indicate that the type of the first information is a command response, the command response can be, for example, a response to a command facing the first device, the command response can include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: read command, write command, disable command, kill command, etc., set as 11 to indicate that the type of the first information is the first type, for example, set as 11 to indicate that the first information contains DO-A data, for example, set as 11 to indicate that the first information contains emergency data. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the first indication information can be more bit indication information, for example, it can further distinguish which command response, for example, by indicating that the first information is a read command response through the first indication information, by indicating that the first information is a write command response through the first indication information, by indicating that the first information is a disable command response through the first indication information, by indicating that the first information is a kill command response through the first indication information.

[0323] FIG. 5 is an interaction schematic diagram of a determining method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0326] Step 5103, the first device determines the type of the first information.

[0327] Optional implementation of steps 5101-5103 can refer to the above embodiment introduction.

[0328] In some embodiments, the above method can include the method described in the above communication system side, terminal side, network device side, etc. embodiments, which are not described here.

[0329] The determination method related to the embodiments of the present disclosure can include at least one of steps 5101-5103. For example, step 5101 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, and step 5102 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, but not limited thereto.

[0330] In the present embodiment or embodiment, each step can be independent, arbitrarily combined or exchanged in order, optional mode or optional example can be arbitrarily combined, and can be arbitrarily combined with any step of other embodiments or other embodiments.

[0331] The following is an exemplary introduction to the above method.

[0332] The present disclosure proposes a service indication method in an IOT scenario, which solves the problem of how the reader distinguishes whether the received D2R transmission is DO-A data or non-DO-A data in the IOT scenario.

[0333] Embodiment 1: The reader distinguishes DO-A transmission and non-DO-A transmission through different resources.

[0334] Optionally, the resource / channel for transmitting DO-A data (D2R data) is configured or pre-configured. Alternatively, the resource / channel for transmitting DO-A data (D2R data) is specified in the protocol. Optionally, the resource / channel can be periodic. Optionally, the resource / channel can be aperiodic. Optionally, the reader periodically or aperiodically transmits R2D transmission, which is received by the device, for time synchronization, e.g., determining the starting time domain position (slot) of D2R resource, etc. Optionally, the resource / channel can contain one or more slots. Optionally, the resource / channel includes but is not limited to time domain resource, frequency domain resource, code domain resource, etc. For example, it can be interpreted as a set of physical layer air interface resources, such as a set of time / frequency / code / space resources, etc. Optionally, the resource / channel can be transmitted through the PDRCH channel or a new channel.

[0335] Optionally, the D2R transmission resource for transmitting DO-A is different from the D2R transmission resource for transmitting non-DO-A, i.e., the reader can distinguish whether the D2R transmission is DO-A transmission or non-DO-A transmission by receiving the resource of the D2R transmission. For example, the transmission resource for transmitting DO-A is different from the D2R transmission resource for transmitting non-DO-A in the time domain. For example, the transmission resource for transmitting DO-A is different from the D2R transmission resource for transmitting non-DO-A in the frequency domain. For example, the transmission resource for transmitting DO-A is different from the D2R transmission resource for transmitting non-DO-A in the time domain and the frequency domain. For example, different means no overlap or partial overlap. For example, the D2R resource for non-DO-A transmission cannot be used for DO-A transmission. For example, the D2R resource for DO-A transmission cannot be used for non-DO-A transmission.

[0336] Optionally, the D2R resource for DO-A transmission can support time division multiplexing and / or frequency division multiplexing. For example, a slot can support one or more IOT devices to transmit DO-A data in the same slot through time division multiplexing and / or frequency division multiplexing.

[0337] Optionally, DO-A and non-DO-A in the present disclosure are only an example, and there can be a more general concept, such as service type, e.g., emergency D2R and non-emergency D2R, etc.

[0338] Embodiment 2: The reader distinguishes DO-A transmission and non-DO-A transmission through the first indication information.

[0339] Optionally, the first indication information is included in the D2R transmission, which is used to indicate the type of the D2R transmission. For example, the D2R transmission is DO-A transmission and / or non-DO-A transmission. For example, the first indication information can be named as D2R type or other names. For example, the first indication information is carried by the D2R subheader. For example, the first indication information is 1-bit indication information, which is set as 1 to indicate that the D2R transmission is DO-A, or set as 0 to indicate that the D2R transmission is non-DO-A, or set as 1 to indicate that the D2R transmission is non-DO-A, or set as 0 to indicate that the D2R transmission is DO-A. For example, the first indication information is more than 1-bit indication information, such as 2-bit indication information, which is set as 00 to indicate that the D2R transmission is MSG1 (16-bit random number) in the random access procedure, set as 01 to indicate that the D2R transmission is MSG3 (device identifier and / or data, such as EPC or core network identifier or other device identifier) in the random access procedure, set as 10 to indicate that the D2R transmission is a command response, such as device-oriented command, including but not limited to read command, write command, disable command, kill command, etc., and set as 11 to indicate that the D2R transmission is DO-A. For example, the first indication information can be more bit indication information, which can further distinguish the response of which command, and the number of bits occupied by the first indication information and how to set different values to distinguish different D2R transmissions are not limited in the present disclosure.

[0340] In embodiment 3, the Reader determines the DO-A transmission request through the second indication information.

[0341] Optionally, in a possible implementation, the resource for transmitting DO-A data is requested by the device, and the device determines that there is DO-A data to be sent, and requests the resource by sending the first information. The first information includes the second indication information, which is used to indicate that the first information is used to request the resource of the DO-A data.
