Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] This application relates to a transmission method and apparatus in a wireless communication system, and more specifically, to a method and apparatus for uplink synchronization in wireless communication. [Background technology]
[0002] The application scenarios for future wireless communication systems are becoming increasingly diverse, and different application scenarios impose different performance requirements on the systems. To meet the different performance requirements of various application scenarios, it was decided at the 72nd meeting of the Third Generation Partner Project (3GPP) Radio Access Network (RAN) to conduct research on New Radio (NR) technology (also known as 5G). At the 75th meeting of the 3GPP RAN, the NR Work Item (WI) was approved, and standardization work on NR commenced.
[0003] In new wireless technologies, uplink synchronization transmission is one of the most fundamental requirements. To adapt to diverse application scenarios and meet different requirements, 3GPP is continuously evolving uplink synchronization technology. [Overview of the Initiative]
[0004] When a User Equipment (UE) moves from the coverage range of one cell to the coverage range of another, it is necessary to change the UE's serving cell, i.e., a handover from the source cell to the target cell. In related technologies, serving cell changes are typically triggered by L3 (Layer 3) measurements and implemented by reconfiguration using synchronization triggered through RRC (Radio Resource Control) signaling. Serving cell changes implemented at L3 are characterized by long latency, high signaling overhead, and long downtime. To overcome these drawbacks, 3GPP (Third Generation Partner Project) RAN (Radio Access Network) introduced technologies based on L3 implementation forms such as DC (Dual Connectivity), CPC (Conditional PSCell (Primary SCG (Secondary Cell Group) Cell) Change), CPA (Conditional PSCell Addition), and CHO (Conditional Handover) in Rel (Release)-17. At the 3GPP RAN #94e General Assembly, it was decided to initiate a Standardization Work Item (WI) for L1 / L2-based mobility enhancement technologies. The design objective of L1 / L2-based mobility enhancement technologies is to implement high-speed switching of UE serving cells. Considering the uplink synchronization requirements in mobility enhancement of NR systems, this application discloses a solution. It should be noted that in the specification of this application, mobility enhancement is treated only as a typical application scenario or example, and the design in this application is applicable to other scenarios facing similar problems where similar technical effects can be achieved (including, but not limited to, multi-antenna systems, multi-TRP (transmit / receive point) systems, capacity enhancement systems, near-field communication systems, unlicensed spectrum communications, IoT (Internet of Things), URLLC (ultra-high reliability low-latency communication) networks, and other scenarios requiring uplink synchronization across multiple cells). In addition, adopting a unified solution across different scenarios (including, but not limited to, multi-carrier scenarios) can also help reduce hardware complexity and cost.Unless otherwise specified, embodiments and features in the first node device of this application may be applied to the second node device, and vice versa. In particular, the descriptions of terms, nouns, functions, and variables in this application (unless otherwise specified) may refer to the definitions in the TS36, TS38, and TS37 series of 3GPP specification protocols.

Figure 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating one embodiment of the wireless protocol architecture for the user plane 350 and control plane 300. Figure 3 shows a wireless protocol architecture for the control plane 300 of a first node device (UE or gNB) and a second node device (gNB or UE) using 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. Layer L1 is referred to herein as PHY 301. Layer 2 (L2 layer) 305 is above PHY 301 and is responsible for the link between the first node device and the second node device through PHY 301. Layer L2 305 comprises MAC (Media Access Control) sublayer 302, RLC (Radio Link Control) sublayer 303, and PDCP (Packet Data Convergence Protocol) sublayer 304, which terminate at the second node device. The PDCP sublayer 304 provides multiplexing between different radio bearers and logical channels. The PDCP sublayer 304 also provides security by encrypting data packets and provides inter-cell mobility support for the first node device between the second node device. The RLC sublayer 303 provides segmentation and reassembly of upper-layer data packets, retransmission of lost data packets, and reordering of data packets to compensate for disrupted reception caused by HARQ. The MAC sublayer 302 provides multiplexing between logical channels and transmission channels. The MAC sublayer 302 is also responsible for allocating various radio resources (e.g., resource blocks) within a single cell between the first node devices. The MAC sublayer 302 is also responsible for HARQ operation. The RRC (Radio Resource Control) sublayer 306 in layer 3 (L3 layer) of the control plane 300 is responsible for acquiring radio resources (i.e., radio bearers) and configuring the lower layers using RRC signaling between the second node device and the first node device. The radio protocol architecture of the user plane 350 comprises layer 1 (L1 layer) and layer 2 (L2 layer).The radio protocol architecture for the first and second node devices in the user plane 350 is substantially the same as the corresponding layers and sublayers in the control plane 300 for the physical layer 351, the PDCP sublayer 354 in the L2 layer 355, the RLC sublayer 353 in the L2 layer 355, and the MAC sublayer 352 in the L2 layer 355, except that the PDCP sublayer 354 also provides header compression for upper-layer data packets to reduce radio transmission overhead. The L2 layer 355 in the user plane 350 also includes an SDAP (Service Data Adaptive Protocol) sublayer 356, which is responsible for mapping between QoS flows and data radio bearers (DRBs) to support service diversity. Although not shown in the figure, the first node device may have multiple upper layers above the L2 layer 355, including a network layer (e.g., IP layer) terminating at the network-side P-GW and an application layer (e.g., remote UE, server, etc.) terminating at the other end of the connection.

In DL, the controller / processor 440 provides packet header compression, encryption, packet segmentation and sorting, multiplexing between logical channels and transport channels, and wireless resource allocation to the first node device 450 based on various priority metrics.

The transmission processor 415 implements various signal processing functions for the L1 layer (i.e., the physical layer), including coding, interleaving, scrambling, modulation, power control / allocation, precoding, and physical layer control signaling generation. For example, the generation of the physical layer signals corresponding to the first PDCCH and the second PDCCH that carry the first information block in this application is completed in the transmission processor 415. The generated modulation symbols are divided into parallel streams. Each stream is mapped to the corresponding multi-carrier subcarrier and / or multi-carrier symbol and then mapped to the antenna 420 by the transmission processor 415 via the transmission device 416 to be transmitted in the form of radio frequency signals. At the receiving end, each receiving device 456 receives the radio frequency signals via the corresponding antenna 460, and each receiving device 456 reconstructs the baseband information modulated on the radio frequency carrier and provides the baseband information to the receiving processor 452.

The controller / processor 490 is responsible for the L2 layer and upper layers, and the controller / processor 490 interprets the upper layer information contained in the first information block in this application. The controller / processor may be associated with a memory 480 that stores program code and data. The memory 480 may be referred to as a computer-readable medium.
[0283] In uplink (UL) transmission, as in downlink transmission, the upper-layer information contained in the second information block in this application is generated by the controller / processor 490. The transmission processor 455 then implements various signal transmission processing functions for the L1 layer (i.e., the physical layer), including the generation of the physical layer signal that carries the second information block and the first signal in the transmission processor 455. The generated signal is then mapped by the transmission processor 455 to the antenna 460 via the transmission device 456 and transmitted in the form of a radio frequency signal. The receiving device 416 receives the radio frequency signal via the corresponding antenna 420, and each receiving device 416 reconstructs the baseband information modulated on the radio frequency carrier and provides the baseband information to the receiving processor 412. The receiving processor 412 implements various signal reception processing functions for the L1 layer (i.e., the physical layer), including receiving and processing the physical layer signal that carries the second information block and the first signal, and then providing data and / or control signals to the controller / processor 440. The functions for the L2 layer implemented in the controller / processor 440 include interpreting upper-layer information, which includes interpreting upper-layer information contained in a second information block.
