[Technical field]
[0001] (CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS) This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202110357886.5, filed in China on April 1, 2021, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0003] Extended Reality (XR) services belong to the pseudo-periodic service, that is, when not considering jitter, service packets (which may be understood as one frame of data) arrive at equal intervals, and the intervals are small floating-point numbers. And XR services have very high requirements on delay.
[0004] In addition, because the service packets need to undergo processes such as data compression and rendering at the server side, there will be a certain amount of jitter in the actual time that the service packets arrive at the base station side. The jitter may be understood as a deviation within a certain range before and after the desired periodic arrival position. Based on the prior art, the degradation of transmission performance caused by the jitter of the service packets can be avoided, but at the same time, the energy saving effect of the terminal will also be greatly affected.

[0020] Hereinafter, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly described with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is to be understood that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art shall fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0021] In the specification and claims of the present application, technical terms such as "first", "second", etc. are used to distinguish between similar objects, not to describe a particular order or priority. In addition, technical terms used in this manner may be interchangeable in some cases, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than that shown or described herein. In addition, the objects distinguished by "first" and "second" are usually of the same type, and the number of objects is not limited. For example, the first object may be one or more. In addition, in the specification and claims, "and / or" indicates at least one of the objects connected, and the symbol " / " generally indicates that the related objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.
[0022] It should be noted that the technology described in the embodiments of the present application is not limited to be used in Long Term Evolution (LTE) / LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) systems, but may also be used in other wireless communication systems such as Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA), Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA), Single-carrier Frequency-Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA), and other systems. The technical terms "system" and "network" in the embodiments of the present application are often used interchangeably, and the technology described may be used in other systems and wireless technologies as well as the above systems and wireless technologies. In the following description, for illustrative purposes, New Radio (NR) systems are described and NR technology terminology is used in much of the following description, however, these technologies may also be applied to applications other than NR system applications, such as 6th Generation (6G) communication systems.
[0023] FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of a wireless communication system applicable to an embodiment of the present application. The wireless communication system includes a terminal 11 and a network side device 12. The terminal 11 is also called a terminal device or a user terminal (User Equipment, UE), and may be a terminal side device such as a mobile phone, a tablet personal computer, a laptop computer (also called a notebook computer), a personal digital assistant (PDA), a personal digital assistant, a netbook, an ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), a mobile Internet device (MID), a wearable device, a vehicle user equipment (VUE), a pedestrian user equipment (PUE), etc. Wearable devices include a smart watch, a bracelet, an earphone, a pair of glasses, etc. It should be noted that the specific type of the terminal 11 is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. The network side device 12 may be a base station or a core network. A base station may also be referred to as a Node B, an Evolved Node B, an access point, a Base Transceiver Station (BTS), a radio base station, a radio transceiver, a Basic Service Set (BSS), an Extended Service Set (ESS), a B node, an Evolved Node B (eNB), a Home Node B, a Home Evolved Node B, a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) access point, a Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) node, a Transmitting Receiving Point (TRP), or other suitable technical terminology in the art.As long as the same technical effect is achieved, the base station is not limited to a specific technical term. It should be noted that the base station in the NR system in the embodiment of the present application is merely an example, and the specific type of the base station is not limited.
[0024] It is important to note that the XR service belongs to the pseudo-periodic service, that is, the service packets arrive at equal intervals, and the intervals are small floating-point numbers (non-positive integers) (e.g., 30FPS (FPS refers to frames per second) 33.33ms, 60FPS 16.67ms, 120FPS 8.33ms). In addition, the XR service has very high requirements for delay, and its wireless transmission delay budget (Packet Delay Budget, PDB) is about 10ms.
[0025] However, because the service packets need to undergo processes such as data compression and rendering at the server side, there is a certain amount of jitter in the actual time at which the service packets arrive at the base station side. The jitter may be understood as a deviation within a certain range before and after the desired periodic arrival position. The deviation of the jitter follows a truncated Gaussian distribution, and the deviation range is ±4 ms before and after the time position at which the quasi-periodic service packets arrive.
[0026] For example, if the time it takes for a packet to arrive at a base station in a pseudo-period is n (the unit is, for example, ms), then due to the effect of jitter, the actual arrival time of the packet is n+j, where j is the magnitude of the jitter. For example, if the jitter is -1 ms, the actual arrival time of a packet that should arrive at time n is n-1 ms.
[0027] It should also be noted that in order to reduce reception activity under the IDLE state of the Radio Resource Control (RRC), the Radio Frequency (RF) module and the MODEM module can actually be turned off, and the power consumption of communication reception can be greatly reduced by incorporating a near-zero power receiver into the receiving module of the terminal. This near-zero power receiver does not require the complex signal detection (e.g., amplification, filtering, quantization, etc.) of the RF module and the signal processing of the MODEM, and only passive matched filtering and low-power signal processing are sufficient. On the base station side, the on-demand trigger of the wake-up signal can activate the reception of the activation announcement by the near-zero power receiver, and trigger a series of flows inside the terminal, such as turning on modules such as the radio frequency transceiver module and the baseband processing module. Such a wake-up signal is usually, for example, a relatively simple on-off keying signal. In this way, wake-up announcements can be signaled to the receiver through a process such as simple energy detection, followed by possible sequence detection identification.
[0028] Based on the above description of the near-zero power receiver, the wake-up signal according to the present application may also be received by the near-zero power receiver.
[0029] Hereinafter, the transmission processing method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail with reference to the drawings through several embodiments and their application scenarios.
[0030] As shown in FIG. 2, the transmission processing method according to the embodiment of the present application includes the following steps.
[0031] Step 201: The terminal obtains configuration information of a wake-up signal.
[0032] Here, the configuration information is used for monitoring the wake-up signal by the terminal during the first period, and includes at least one of a wake-up signal type, a transmission configuration, a monitoring start time, a monitoring duration, a monitoring timing, and a monitoring period.
[0033] Optionally, the above setting information includes information about related information of the service packet.
[0034] It should be noted that the start time, end time, and intermediate time of the monitoring on duration, which have the same technical effect as the monitoring start time, are also included in the scope of protection of this embodiment. The monitoring on duration is also called a monitoring time window.
[0035] Step 202: The terminal monitors a wake-up signal according to the configuration information within a first period, where the first period is a period during which monitoring of a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) is skipped.
[0036] In this way, according to steps 201 and 202, the terminal monitors the wake-up signal according to the obtained wake-up signal configuration information during the period when the monitoring of the first PDCCH is skipped. In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal monitors the wake-up signal during the period when the monitoring of the first PDCCH is skipped, thereby realizing timely processing of data during the period when the monitoring of the first PDCCH is skipped, thereby reducing the transmission delay of this part of the packet and improving the transmission performance. In addition, the energy consumed by the terminal for monitoring the wake-up signal is very limited. Therefore, the embodiment of the present application can ensure data transmission performance and not reduce the technical effect of energy saving gain.
[0037] Specifically, due to jitter in the XR service packet, data may arrive during the period when the monitoring of the first PDCCH is skipped. In this way, the terminal performs the above steps and monitors the wake-up signal to realize timely processing of data, thereby reducing the transmission delay of this portion of packets and improving the transmission performance.
[0038] In this embodiment, the wake-up signal type is associated with the type and priority of the behavior and / or service to be performed after the wake-up signal is monitored. The transmission configuration includes one or more of the time-frequency resource, subcarrier configuration, configuration, and power occupied by the wake-up signal. The wake-up signal configuration may be a target reference signal (e.g., Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS)) configuration, or of course a newly defined configuration.
[0039] It should be noted that the start time of monitoring the wake-up signal may be understood as the start time of the monitoring on-duration, which may be understood as a monitoring range, and corresponds to one monitoring time window or detection window.
[0040] Optionally, the monitoring start time is: Service packet pseudo-periodic arrival position, Service packet jitter range, and It is associated with at least one of the discontinuous reception (DRX) onduration start positions.
[0041] That is, the monitoring start point may be a service packet pseudo-period arrival position, a DRX on duration start position, or a position obtained by both the service packet pseudo-period arrival position and the service packet jitter range, etc. For example, the monitoring start point is the maximum jitter position (i.e., minus the jitter length position) before the service packet pseudo-period arrival position.
[0042] Moreover, the pseudo periodic arrival position of the service packet refers to the arrival position of a desired period of the service packet, that is, the periodic arrival position when data jitter is not taken into consideration or when there is no data jitter.
[0043] Optionally, one or more monitoring timings exist within the monitoring on duration.
[0044] Of course, the monitoring timing is set based on the characteristics of the service. For example, for an XR service, the monitoring timing of the wake-up signal within a certain time range around the service packet pseudo-periodic arrival position is denser than the monitoring timing outside the certain time range.
[0045] Optionally, the monitoring on duration is: Service Packet Jitter Range, The positive jitter range of the service packet, and The jitter range is associated with at least one of the negative jitter ranges of the service packets.
[0046] Wherein, the positive jitter range of the service packet is the jitter range after the service packet pseudo-periodic arrival position of the service packet, for example, 4 ms. The negative jitter range of the service packet is the jitter range before the service packet pseudo-periodic arrival position of the service packet, for example, -4 ms. From both the positive jitter range and the negative jitter range of the service packet, it can be seen that the service packet jitter range, i.e., the service packet jitter range, is [-4, 4] ms.
[0047] Optionally, the monitoring period is: DRX period, and It is associated with at least one of the service packet pseudo-periods.
[0048] That is, the monitoring period of the wake-up signal may be a DRX period, a service packet quasi-period, or a new period based on the DRX period or the service packet quasi-period. The terminal can periodically monitor the wake-up signal based on the set monitoring period.
[0049] In this embodiment, the period during which the first PDCCH monitoring is skipped, i.e., the first period, is Outside active time for discontinuous reception (DRX), the first PDCCH monitoring skip time indicated by the DCI; The active time of the Bandwidth Part (BWP), and The active time includes at least one of the active times of the dormant search space group during which monitoring of the first PDCCH is skipped.
[0050] Here, the DRX outside active time may be understood as a time other than the DRX active time.
[0051] Among them, when the first period is realized as at least two of the above times, the first period may be a period in which the at least two times are combined, or only a period in which the at least two times overlap may be used. For example, when there is an overlapping period T2-T3 between T1-T2, which is the DRX outside active time, and T3-T4, which is the first PDCCH monitoring skip time indicated by DCI, the first period is T1-T4 or T2-T3.
[0052] Also optionally, in this embodiment, the method further comprises: The method further includes performing a monitoring behavior of a downlink channel when the terminal monitors the wake-up signal.
[0053] It can be understood that the terminal performs monitoring behavior of the downlink channel based on the monitored wake-up signal, for example, by turning on modules such as a video transceiver module and a baseband processing module for monitoring.
[0054] In one embodiment, if the terminal monitors a wake-up signal in the first PDCCH monitoring skip time, the terminal performs a monitoring behavior of a downlink channel.
[0055] The following should be explained. The difference between the wake-up indication in the above embodiment and the wake-up indication in the prior art is that the prior art specifies the following. The content of the wake-up indication is whether to turn on the next DRX onduration timer, that is, the behavior of the UE after monitoring the wake-up indication is to determine whether to monitor the PDCCH in the next DRX onduration according to the instruction of the wake-up indication. And the premise for setting the wake-up indication is that the DRX is set in the terminal, that is, the wake-up indication and the DRX setting are used in association with each other.
[0056] However, in this application, regardless of whether DRX is configured in the terminal, when the terminal monitors the wake-up signal, the terminal performs monitoring behavior of the downlink channel immediately or after a specific time interval.
[0057] Considering different realizations of the downlink channel, optionally, in this embodiment, when the terminal monitors the wake-up signal, the step of performing a monitoring behavior of the downlink channel can be: performing monitoring on a second PDCCH; and The method includes at least one of the steps of: performing monitoring on a physical downlink control channel (PDSCH).
[0058] Here, the second PDCCH may be the same as or different from the first PDCCH. In addition, the first PDCCH and / or the second PDCCH may be: PDCCH equipped with a default type of search space, PDCCH with a predefined Downlink Control Information (DCI) format; A PDCCH associated with a default control resource set (CORESET), and At least one of the PDCCHs carries DCI scrambled by a predefined Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI).
[0059] For example, the first PDCCH may include a PDCCH equipped with a Common Search Space (CSS) of Type 3, and a PDCCH equipped with a user specific search space (USS). Also, for example, the first PDCCH does not include a PDCCH of a DCI scrambled by a Power Saving-RNTI (PS-RNTI), that is, monitoring of the DCI cannot be skipped.
[0060] Optionally, the step of performing monitoring on the second PDCCH further comprises: turning on a DRX onduration timer or a DRX inactivity timer; Steps to switch to non-suspended BWP, switching to a non-quiesced search space group; stopping a running first timer, during which the terminal skips monitoring a first PDCCH during an execution time of the first timer; and and stopping execution of the instruction to skip monitoring the first PDCCH.
[0061] That is, at least one of the above steps can realize monitoring of the second PDCCH, and at least one of the above steps may be understood as a method for realizing monitoring of the second PDCCH.
[0062] Here, by turning on the DRX onduration timer, it is possible to achieve the effect of dynamically adjusting the start time of the DRX onduration depending on whether a wake-up signal is detected.
[0063] If the wake-up signal is monitored, monitoring for a PDSCH is performed. Optionally, the step of monitoring for a PDSCH includes receiving a Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS) PDSCH.
[0064] Here, the SPS PDSCH may include at least one of a preset SPS PDSCH, an SPS PDSCH corresponding to a predetermined logical channel priority, and an SPS PDSCH corresponding to a predetermined Quality of Service (QoS).
[0065] Optionally, the wake-up signal type is associated with a monitoring behavior of the downlink channel.
[0066] In this way, when monitoring for the wake-up signal, monitoring behavior of the associated downlink channel may be performed specifically based on the wake-up signal type of the wake-up signal.
[0067] Optionally, the wake-up signal type is associated with a type and priority of a service.
[0068] In this way, different wake-up signal types may be associated with different service types or service priorities. For example, a wake-up signal type is associated with a service of a certain QoS requirement or priority, a wake-up signal type is associated with a service of a certain logical channel priority, a wake-up signal type is associated with a certain service, such as an XR service, a wake-up signal type is associated with a base layer or an enhanced layer of adaptive transmission, etc. For example, wake-up signal type 1 represents that wake-up signal 1 is configured for an XR service, and wake-up signal type 1 is associated with a monitoring behavior of a target PDCCH (PDCCH for an XR service). In this case, when wake-up signal 1 is monitored, the monitoring behavior of the target PDCCH is performed.
[0069] It should be noted that in this embodiment, optionally, when the wake-up signal is monitored, When the wake-up signal is detected, or This includes the case where a wake-up instruction is detected by the wake-up signal.
[0070] In this way, when the wake-up signal is detected, the terminal performs the monitoring behavior of the downlink channel. Of course, if the wake-up signal further instructs whether to wake up, the terminal needs to perform the monitoring behavior of the downlink channel only when it detects the wake-up instruction by the wake-up signal.
[0071] Optionally, when the wake-up signal is detected, comparing the currently detected signal sequence with a wake-up signal sequence and determining that the wake-up signal has been detected if the comparison is successful; or This includes comparing the signal strength of a currently detected signal with a predetermined detection threshold, and determining that the wake-up signal has been detected if the signal strength of the currently detected signal is greater than or equal to the predetermined detection threshold.
[0072] That is, whether a wake-up signal is detected can be determined by checking the signal sequence or comparing the signal strength with a default detection threshold. Wherein, wake-up signals of different service priorities correspond to different default detection thresholds. For example, the default detection threshold corresponding to the base layer is relatively low, and the default detection threshold corresponding to the enhanced layer (i.e., higher requirements for channel quality) is relatively high. Specifically, the default detection threshold may be set by the network side device.
[0073] It should also be noted that in this embodiment, optionally, the step of performing a monitoring behavior of a downlink channel when the terminal monitors the wake-up signal comprises: performing a monitoring behavior of a downlink channel at a first time point after the terminal monitors the wake-up signal; The time interval between the first time point and the time point at which the wake-up signal is monitored is set or defined.
[0074] That is, there is a certain delay between the time when the terminal monitors the wake-up signal and the time when the terminal performs the monitoring behavior of the downlink channel, and this delay may be understood as a conversion delay. This conversion delay (i.e., the time interval between the first time point and the time when the terminal monitors the wake-up signal) may be set or defined by the network side device, or may be predefined. For example, when the network side device does not set or indicate the conversion delay, the terminal performs the monitoring behavior of the downlink channel X time units after the end time point of the time unit (e.g., symbol or slot) in which the time when the terminal monitors the wake-up signal is located. X is 1 or more.
[0075] Among them, the time interval may be associated with a subcarrier space (SCS) level.
[0076] Optionally, the method further comprises: The method further includes the step of the terminal not receiving and / or transmitting during the time interval.
[0077] That is, the terminal does not receive and / or transmit anything during that time interval.
[0078] Optionally, in this embodiment, the wake-up signal is loaded with an indication of a monitoring behavior of the downlink channel; The step of performing a monitoring behavior of a downlink channel includes: The terminal performs a monitoring behavior of a downlink channel according to the instruction information.
[0079] That is, when the terminal monitors a wake-up signal, the terminal executes the monitoring behavior of the corresponding downlink channel based on the instruction information carried in the wake-up signal and in accordance with the association between the instruction information and the downlink channel monitoring behavior.
[0080] For example, if a wake-up signal carries instruction information for downlink channel monitoring behavior 1, and the downlink channel monitoring behavior 1 is a behavior for switching to a non-pausing BWP2, when the terminal monitors the wake-up signal, the terminal switches to the non-pausing BWP2 and monitors the PDCCH.
[0081] Optionally, in this embodiment, the method further comprises: The method further includes a step in which, if the wake-up signal has not been monitored for N consecutive monitoring timings, the terminal stops monitoring for the wake-up signal thereafter, where N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1.
[0082] Here, when the wake-up signal is not monitored for N consecutive monitoring timings, the subsequent monitoring of the wake-up signal is stopped, thereby avoiding power consumption due to continuous monitoring.
[0083] Of course, not monitoring the wake-up signal may refer to not detecting the wake-up signal, or the detected wake-up signal may indicate not to wake up, where not detecting the wake-up signal refers to not matching the signal sequence or the signal strength not meeting the predetermined detection threshold.
[0084] Also, the following points should be noted: Optionally, in this embodiment, the method further comprises: The method further includes the step of not monitoring the wake-up signal by the terminal during a second period; The second period is DRX active time, 1st PDCCH monitoring time, Non-dormant BWP active time, and The non-dormant search space group active time includes at least one of the non-dormant search space group active times.
[0085] By the terminal not monitoring the wake-up signal within the second period, power consumption is saved.
[0086] Also, in this embodiment, optionally, the wake-up signal is a terminal-specific wake-up signal or a group-wide wake-up signal.
[0087] Here, the terminal-specific wake-up signal is a wake-up signal used to wake up a specific terminal, whereas the group-wide wake-up signal is a wake-up signal used to instruct terminals in one group.
[0088] In the following, the application of the method according to the embodiment of the present application will be described by way of a specific scenario.
[0089] Scene 1: As shown in FIG. 3, the wake-up signal is set by the network side device. The monitoring start position of the wake-up signal is set to the XR downlink video (DL video) service packet pseudo-period arrival position t5 (for example, the service period (t0 to t5) is 16.67 ms), and the monitoring start position of the wake-up signal is set to a position t2 that is minus the jitter length before the service packet pseudo-period arrival position t5. The monitoring on duration of the wake-up signal is equal to the jitter range of the XR DL video service packet, and the jitter range is ±4 ms. At this time, the monitoring on duration (t2 to t6) corresponds to one detection window, and the center position of the window is the service packet pseudo-period arrival position t5. The monitoring period of the wake-up signal is equal to the XR DL video service packet pseudo period.
[0090] At time t1, the terminal receives a PDCCH skipping command sent by the network side device, which instructs the terminal to skip monitoring the PDCCH until the terminal reaches the position where the next quasi-periodic packet arrives.
[0091] By setting the above wake-up signal, the terminal monitors the wake-up signal within the corresponding wake-up signal monitoring timing and monitoring-on duration in the PDCCH non-monitoring state (i.e., within the PDCCH skip-on duration instructed by the network side device, i.e., within the first period).
[0092] Since there is jitter in the actual arrival time of the XR DL video service packet, as shown in Figure 3, jitter = -3ms, that is, the service packet actually arrives 3ms earlier than the expected time. Therefore, after receiving the service packet, the network side device needs to immediately wake up the terminal currently in the PDCCH monitoring skip state to perform subsequent data scheduling.
[0093] For example, in Fig. 3, when the terminal detects a wake-up instruction by a wake-up signal at a certain wake-up signal monitoring timing (i.e., monitoring timing at time t3), the terminal starts to transition to a PDCCH monitoring state (starts monitoring the PDCCH). For example, the step includes a step of turning on modules such as a radio frequency transceiver module and a baseband processing module. Among them, in the monitoring on duration (t2 to t6), the monitoring timing after the monitoring timing at time t3 is an invalid wake-up signal monitoring timing.
[0094] Here, the conversion delay (i.e., Δt, Δt=t4-t3), the conversion delay based on the default, depends on the SCS level, and when the SCS is currently 30 kHz, it can be determined that the conversion delay is equal to one slot. That is, one slot after receiving the wake-up instruction by the wake-up signal, the terminal ends the current PDCCH skip early and enters the PDCCH monitoring state.
[0095] In this way, for XR DL video service packets with jitter, the network side device can wake up the terminal in the PDCCH monitoring skip state early by the wake-up signal of the corresponding configuration information to transmit the service packet. This reduces the data transmission delay due to energy saving, and prevents the packet from exceeding the packet delay budget (PDB) due to the scheduling delay, resulting in packet loss, thereby achieving a balance between energy saving and data transmission performance.
[0096] Scene 2: As shown in FIG. 4, the network side device sets DRX, such as DRX onduration timer, DRX period (t0~t4), etc. The network side device sets a wake-up signal, and the monitoring start position of the wake-up signal is set to the DRX start position (for example, the DRX period is 160 ms), and the monitoring start position of the wake-up signal is set to the position t1 before the DRX start position t4. The monitoring onduration of the wake-up signal is 10 ms. The monitoring period of the wake-up signal is equal to the DRX period.
[0097] Based on the above wake-up signal settings, the terminal monitors the wake-up signal within the corresponding wake-up signal monitoring timing and monitoring-on duration during DRX outside active time (i.e., within the PDCCH skip-on duration instructed by the network side device, i.e., within the first period).
[0098] A service packet may arrive during a DRX off phase (DRX outside active time). Therefore, after the network side device receives the service packet, if there is a wake-up signal timing thereafter, the terminal currently in the PDCCH monitoring skip state needs to be woken up to perform subsequent data scheduling.
[0099] For example, in FIG. 4, the terminal detects a wake-up instruction by a wake-up signal at a certain wake-up signal monitoring timing (i.e., monitoring timing at time t2). Therefore, the terminal starts to transition to a PDCCH monitoring state (starts to perform monitoring on the PDCCH). The method is to immediately turn on the DRX inactivity timer after a conversion delay (i.e., at time t3). The network side device may perform operations such as transmitting scheduling data by the PDCCH within the timer.
[0100] In this way, in response to the possibility that a service packet arrives within the DRX outside active time, the network side device can use the wake-up signal of the corresponding configuration information to wake up the terminal in the hibernation state early to transmit the service packet, thereby reducing the data transmission delay caused by energy saving, achieving a balance between energy saving and data transmission performance, and being suitable for delay-sensitive service transmission.
