Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of communications, and particularly to a method and apparatus for switching control of a monitoring state, and a storage medium.
Background Art
[0002] In a 5G NR (New Radio Access Technology) system, MBMS (Multimedia Broadcast and Multicast Service) or MBS (Multicast Broadcast Service) can perform scheduling transmission in the following two ways.
[0003] The first method is dynamic scheduling. The PDSCH (Physical Downlink Shared Channel) channel is scheduled and transmitted by the PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel). This PDCCH for scheduling the MBS service is indicated by a scheduling identifier specific to the MBS service. Here, the scheduling identifier specific to the MBS service includes, but is not limited to, a G-RNTI (Group Radio Network Temporary Identity).
[0004] The second method is SPS (Semi-Persistent Scheduling). The base station configures periodic PDSCH resources, and the terminal receives MBS service data via the PDSCH channel resources.
[0005] Here, the MBS service can be marked by MBS service identifiers such as TMGI (Temporary Mobile Group Identity), MBS Session ID (MBS session identifier), MBS QoS flow ID (MBS business flow identifier), MBS RB ID (MBS Radio Bearer ID, MBS radio bearer identifier), and MBS LCH ID (MBS Logical Channel ID, MBS logical channel identifier).
[0006] Here, the transmission modes of the MBS service can include the following two types.
[0007] The first type of transmission model, which is transmission mode 1 (multicast transmission). The terminal enters the RRC (Radio Resource Control) connected state to receive the reception setting information corresponding to the MBS service, and receives the MBS service based on this reception setting information. The network side transmits the reception setting information corresponding to the MBS service to the terminal through dedicated signaling for the terminal.
[0008] The second type of transmission model, which is transmission mode 2 (broadcast transmission). The terminal can receive the reception setting information corresponding to the MBS service in any of the IDLE (idle) state, INACTIVE (inactivated) state, and CONNECTED state, and receive the MBS service based on this reception setting information.
[0009] The network side transmits the reception setting information of the MBS service to the terminal through system information such as SIB (System Information Block) and MBS control channel information such as MCCH (MBS Control Channel).
[0010] Since different MBS services have different transmission periods, the network side can be configured such that the terminal receives different MBS services in a discontinuous manner, that is, different MBS services can correspond to different discontinuous reception configuration information as shown in FIG. 1.
[0011] After the network side configures the reception configuration information corresponding to the MBS service for the terminal, the terminal needs to monitor the MBS transmission during the service monitoring duration corresponding to the MBS scheduling time set by the network, for example, the mbsOnDurationTimer (MBS monitoring duration timer), for example, by monitoring the G-RNTI PDCCH.
[0012] However, the network side may temporarily stop the transmission of the MBS service, and the terminal side still monitors the MBS transmission according to the MBS scheduling time previously set by the network side, and the terminal will consume more power.

[0049] Hereinafter, a method for controlling the switching of the monitoring state provided by the present disclosure will be described from the network side device side.
[0050] Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for controlling the switching of the monitoring state. As shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 2 is a flowchart of the monitoring state control method shown by an embodiment, which is applicable to a network side device. The method can include the following steps.
[0051] In step 201, reception setting information corresponding to a broadcast multicast (MBS) service is set for the terminal. The reception setting information is for the terminal to receive the MBS service in a discontinuous reception mode.
[0052] In step 202, target control information is transmitted to the terminal. The target control information is for activating or deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal.
[0053] In the above embodiment, the monitoring state switching module is configured to start or stop the reception monitoring of the MBS service based on the instruction of the target control information and the reception setting information corresponding to the MBS service set for the terminal by the network side device. The target control information is for activating or deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal, and the reception setting information is for the terminal to receive the MBS service in a discontinuous reception mode.

[0054] In some selectable embodiments, the reception configuration information corresponding to the MBS service set for the terminal by the network-side device includes at least one of, but is not limited to, the service monitoring period of the MBS service, a first timer for indicating the service monitoring duration within each service monitoring period, the service monitoring start position within each service monitoring period, a second timer for indicating that there is new data that needs to be scheduled by the network-side device, a third timer for instructing the terminal to perform HARQ feedback, and a fourth timer for instructing the terminal to receive data retransmitted from the network-side device.
[0055] Here, the service monitoring period mbsCycle of the MBS service is used to instruct the terminal side to periodically monitor the MBS service according to this service monitoring period. The first timer mbsOnDurationTimer can instruct the terminal side of the service monitoring duration that needs to be monitored within each service monitoring period. The service monitoring start position mbsStartOffset can indicate the start time region position where the terminal side specifically starts monitoring the MBS service within each service monitoring period.
[0056] The second timer may be an inactivation timer mbsInactivityTimer, and when there is new data that requires scheduling, this network-side device can control the terminal side to start or resume the second timer. The third timer may be a HARQ downlink round trip time timer mbsHARQ-RTT-Timer. When downlink data has been received at the terminal side and there is HARQ information that needs to be fed back for the downlink data, the terminal side can start the third timer. The fourth timer may be a HARQ retransmission timer mbsHARQ-RxTimer. After the third timer expires, the terminal starts the fourth timer, and during the start period of the fourth timer, the network-side device can transmit the retransmitted data to the terminal.
[0057] The above is merely an exemplary description. In actual applications, the network-side device can set the reception setting information corresponding to the terminal according to the needs of the MBS service, and all other reception setting information belongs to the protection scope of the present disclosure.
[0058] In a possible implementation, when the target control information is for activating the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal, the target control information can include any one of a WUS (Wake-Up-Signal), a target DCI (Downlink Control Information), and a target MAC CE (Media Access Control Control Element).
[0059] In another possible implementation, when the target control information is for deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal, the target control information is It includes any one of GTS (Go-To-Sleep, sleep signal), the target DCI, and the target MAC CE.
[0060] Optionally, the target DCI can use the DCI identified by PS-RNTI (Power Saving RNTI, power saving mode radio network temporary identifier). Specifically, the target DCI can be the DCI scrambled by PS-RNTI through CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check).
[0061] Optionally, the target MAC CE may be a MAC CE specially set to activate or deactivate the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal.
[0062] Optionally, the content of the target control information for activating or deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal can include at least one of MBS service indication information and MBS service activation status information, but is not limited thereto.

[0064] Furthermore, the MBS scheduling identifier can include at least one of a dynamic scheduling identifier such as G-RNTI and a semi-persistent scheduling identifier such as SPS-RNTI, but is not limited thereto.
[0065] Here, the activation status information of the MBS service can include, but is not limited to, at least one of an activation status (or a state of "starting to receive monitoring of the MBS service") and a deactivation status (or a state of "stopping to receive monitoring of the MBS service").
[0066] The above is merely an exemplary description, and all other information contents of the target control information for activating or deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBS service by the terminal should belong to the protection scope of the present disclosure.
[0067] In the above embodiment, the network-side device can activate or deactivate the reception monitoring of the MBS service on the terminal side by any of the above target control information, which is simple to implement and highly available.
[0068] In some selectable embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3, FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a monitoring state control method shown by an embodiment, which is applicable to a network-side device, and the method can include the following steps.
[0069] In step 301, reception setting information corresponding to a broadcast multicast (MBS) service is set for the terminal by a radio resource control (RRC) message. The reception setting information is for the terminal to receive the MBS service in a discontinuous reception mode.
[0070] In step 302, target control information is transmitted to the terminal. The target control information is for activating or deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBS service by the terminal.
[0071] In the above embodiment, the network-side device can set, by means of an RRC message, reception setting information corresponding to the MBS service for the terminal so that the terminal adopts a discontinuous reception mode to receive the MBS service. Further, when there is an MBS service, the network-side device can activate the reception monitoring of the terminal's MBS service by means of target control information, or when the transmission of the MBS service is stopped, the network-side device can deactivate the reception monitoring of the terminal's MBS service by means of target control information, thereby saving the power consumption of the terminal.
[0072] In some selectable embodiments, the RRC message transmitted by the network-side device to the terminal may simultaneously include, in addition to the reception setting information corresponding to the MBS service set for the terminal by the network-side device, the initial monitoring state corresponding to the MBS service set for the terminal by the network-side device. Here, the initial monitoring state includes that the reception monitoring of the MBS service is stopped or that the reception monitoring of the MBS service is started.
[0073] After receiving the reception setting information, if the initial monitoring state set in the RRC message stops the reception monitoring of the MBS service, the terminal side does not start the reception monitoring of the MBS service, and the terminal performs the reception monitoring of the MBS service based on this reception setting information until the network side activates the reception monitoring of the MBS service by means of target control information.
[0074] After receiving the reception setting information, if the initial monitoring state set in the RRC message starts the reception monitoring of the MBS service, the terminal side immediately starts the reception monitoring of the MBS service, and then can stop the reception monitoring of the MBS service based on the target control information for deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBS service transmitted from the network-side device.
[0075] In the above embodiment, the network-side device can also set the initial monitoring state of the MBS service for the terminal, which is simple to implement and further saves the power consumption of the terminal.
[0076] In some selectable embodiments, the number of MBS services may be one or more. When the number of MBS services is more than one, the network-side device can set different reception setting information for different MBS services.
[0077] For example, in the case of MBS service #1, the network-side device can set reception setting information #1 assumed as mbsDRX-config-1 for the terminal. In the case of MBS service #2, the network-side device can set reception setting information #2 assumed as mbsDRX-config-2 for the terminal,... Here, mbsDRX-config-1 and mbsDRX-config-2 may be different.
[0078] In the above embodiment, when the network-side device sets the reception setting information corresponding to the MBS service for the terminal, different reception setting information can be set for different MBS services, which has high availability.
[0079] Hereinafter, the switching control solution for the monitoring state of the present disclosure will be described from the terminal side.
[0080] The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for controlling the switching of the monitoring state. As shown in FIG. 4, FIG. 4 is a flowchart of the monitoring state control method shown by an embodiment, which is applicable to the terminal. The method can include the following steps.
[0081] In step 401, based on the instruction of the received target control information and the reception setting information corresponding to the Broadcast Multicast( MBS ) service set for the terminal by the network-side device, the MB S serviceStart or stop monitoring the reception of the MBMS.
[0082] Here, the target control information is for activating or deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBMS service of the terminal, and the reception setting information is for the terminal to receive the MBMS service in a discontinuous reception mode.
[0083] In a possible implementation, in response to determining that the target control information is for activating the reception monitoring of the MBMS service of the terminal, based on the instruction of the target control information and the reception setting information, start the reception monitoring of the MBMS service.
[0084] In another possible implementation, in response to the target control information being for deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBMS service of the terminal, based on the instruction of the target control information and the reception setting information, stop the reception monitoring of the MBMS service.
[0085] In the above embodiment, the terminal can start or stop the reception monitoring of the MBMS service based on the instruction of the target control information and the reception setting information, and there is no need to always maintain the reception monitoring of the MBMS service according to the settings of the network-side device, and the power consumption of the terminal can be better saved.
[0086] In some selectable embodiments, the terminal may be in a state of stopping the reception monitoring of the MBMS service based on the initial monitoring state, or the terminal may switch to a state of stopping the reception monitoring of the MBMS service based on the target control information for deactivating the reception monitoring of the previously received MBMS service of the terminal.
[0087] When the terminal determines that it is in a state where it has stopped receiving monitoring of the MBS service, it may monitor only the target control information for activating the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal.
[0088] That is, when the terminal has stopped receiving monitoring of the MBS service, there is no need to monitor the target control information for deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal.
[0089] In some selectable embodiments, the terminal may be in a state where it has started receiving monitoring of the MBS service based on the initial monitoring state, or the terminal may switch to a state where it has started receiving monitoring of the MBS service based on the target control information for activating the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the previously received terminal.
[0090] When the terminal determines that it is in a state where it has started receiving monitoring of the MBS service, it may monitor only the target control information for deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal.
[0091] That is, when the terminal has started receiving monitoring of the MBS service, there is no need to monitor the target control information for activating the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal.
[0092] In the above embodiments, the terminal can monitor only the necessary target control information based on the currently placed monitoring state, which is simple to implement, highly available, and further saves the power consumption of the terminal.
[0093] In some selectable embodiments, the terminal can determine the initial monitoring state of the MBS service by adopting any of the following methods.
[0094] In the first method, the initial monitoring state can be determined based on the instructions of the network-side device.
[0095] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the network-side device can set the reception configuration information corresponding to the MBS service for the terminal by means of an RRC message. At the same time, the RRC message may include the initial monitoring state set for the terminal by the network-side device. The terminal determines the reception configuration information corresponding to the MBS service and the initial monitoring state simultaneously based on the RRC message.
[0096] In the second method, the protocol stipulates the initial monitoring state.
[0097] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the initial monitoring states of different MBS services can be determined in advance according to the protocol specifications. The terminal only needs to receive the reception configuration information corresponding to the MBS service sent from the network-side device.
[0098] For example, the network-side device sets the reception configuration information mbsDRX-config-1 for MBS service #1 by means of an RRC message, and the terminal may directly determine the initial monitoring state corresponding to the MBS service #1 according to the protocol specifications.
[0099] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the initial monitoring state includes that the reception monitoring of the MBS service is stopped or the reception monitoring of the MBS service is started.
[0100] In the above embodiment, the terminal can determine the initial monitoring state corresponding to the MBS service based on the instructions of the network-side device or directly according to the protocol specifications, which is simple to implement and highly available.
[0101] In some selectable embodiments, as shown in FIG. 5, FIG. 5 is a flowchart of a monitoring state control method shown by one embodiment, which is applicable to a terminal, and the method may include the following steps.
[0102] In step 501, the target control information is monitored at a target time region position for monitoring the target control information.
[0103] Here, the target control information is for activating or deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal.
[0104] In step 502, based on the instruction of the received target control information and the reception setting information corresponding to the MBS service set for the terminal by the network side device, Broadcast Multicast( MBS ) the reception monitoring of the MBS service is started or stopped. the MB S service Here, the reception setting information is for the terminal to receive the MBS service in a discontinuous reception mode.
[0105] In the above embodiment, on the terminal side, by monitoring the target control information at the target time region position for monitoring the target control information, the reception monitoring of the MBS service can be started or stopped, which is highly available.
[0106] In a possible implementation form, when the target control information is monitored at the target time region position on the terminal and the bit value of the target control information is a first preset value, it is determined that the target control information for instructing to activate the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal is monitored. Here, the first preset value can be 1.
[0107]
[0108] For example, assuming that the target period is 10 milliseconds, if the target control information is received at the position of target time domain position SFN (System Frame Number) #1, slot #0, and the target control information is 1 bit and the bit value is 1, it is determined that the target control information for instructing to activate the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal has been monitored.
[0109] Or, if the target control information is monitored at the target time domain position and the bit value of the target control information is a second preset value, it is determined that the target control information for instructing to deactivate the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal has been monitored. Here, the second preset value can be 0.
[0110] For example, assuming that the target period is 10 milliseconds, if the target control information is received at the position of target time domain position SFN (System Frame Number) #1, slot #0, and the target control information is 1 bit and the bit value is 0, it is determined that the target control information for instructing to deactivate the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal has been monitored.
[0111] In another possible implementation, if it is determined that the target control information is not monitored at the target time domain position and the terminal is in a state where the reception monitoring of the MBS service has been stopped, in order to avoid leakage of the MBS service, the reception monitoring of the MBS service can be started based on the reception setting information.
[0112] Alternatively, when it is determined that the target control information is not being monitored at the target time region position and the terminal is in a state where it has started monitoring the reception of the MBS service, in order to avoid waste of the terminal's power consumption, the terminal can stop monitoring the reception of the MBS service based on the reception setting information.
[0113] In the above embodiment, when the target control information is monitored at the target time region position, the terminal can determine, based on the bit value of the target control information, that the target control information is for activating or deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBS service. Alternatively, when the target control information is not monitored at the target time region position, the terminal can switch the monitoring state based on the current monitoring state, avoiding leakage of the MBS service or waste of the terminal's power consumption, which is highly available.
[0114] In some selectable embodiments, the offset value for the time region position specified in each target period of the target time region position is a preset offset value. Here, the period time length of the target period may be a positive integer multiple of the period time length of the monitoring period or paging period of the MBS service. The specified time region position includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the service monitoring start position of the MBS service, the paging monitoring start position, and the instruction start position for multicast control channel change. service Here, the instruction start position for multicast control channel change includes, but is not limited to, the instruction start position of the instruction information for instructing the start of the MBS service of the MCCH channel or the instruction start position of the instruction information for changing the MCCH setting message.
[0115]
[0116] Taking the example that the specified time domain position is the service monitoring start position of the MBS service, as shown in Figure 6A, the cycle time length of the service monitoring cycle of MBS service #1 is 10 slots (time slots), the preset offset value is -2 slots, and the cycle time length of the target cycle is the service same as the cycle time length of the monitoring cycle of the MBS service. Assuming that the cycle time length of the service monitoring cycle is 10 milliseconds, the time slot corresponding to the service monitoring start position becomes slot #2, and the terminal service uses the position of slot #0 in the monitoring cycle of each MBS service as the target time domain position, and monitors the target control information at this target time domain position.
[0117] Taking the example that the specified time domain position is the paging monitoring start position, as shown in Figure 6B, the cycle time length of the paging cycle is 100 milliseconds, the paging start position is at the time domain position of SFN #1, slot #2, the cycle time length of the target cycle is equal to the cycle time length of the paging cycle, both are 100 milliseconds, and assuming that the preset offset value is -2 slots, the terminal uses the position of SFN #1, slot #0 as the target time domain position at a 100-millisecond cycle, and monitors the target control information at this target time domain position.
[0118] When the specified time domain position is the instruction start position for multicast control channel change, the method for determining the target time domain position is similar to the above method, and the description is omitted here.
[0119] In the above embodiment, the terminal can determine the target time domain position for monitoring the target control information within each target cycle with reference to the specified time domain position, and the power consumption of the terminal can be more efficiently saved and the availability is high.
[0120] In some selectable embodiments, the number of the MBS services is one or more. When the number of the MBS services is more than one, the received configuration information corresponding to different MBS services is different.
[0121] In some selectable embodiments, the received configuration information corresponding to the MBS service includes at least one of the service monitoring period of the MBS service, a first timer for indicating the service monitoring time length within each service monitoring period, the service monitoring start position within each service monitoring period, a second timer for indicating that there is new data that needs to be scheduled by the network-side device, a third timer for instructing the terminal to perform HARQ feedback, and a fourth timer for instructing the terminal to receive the data retransmitted from the network-side device.
[0122] In some selectable embodiments, when the terminal determines that the initial monitoring state is to start receiving monitoring of the MBS service, or when the terminal receives target control information for activating the receiving monitoring of the MBS service, the terminal can start receiving monitoring of the MBS service. Accordingly, the terminal can perform at least one of the steps of starting at least one of the first timer, the second timer, the third timer, and the fourth timer; perform the step of starting to monitor the control channel corresponding to the MBS service; perform the step of starting to monitor the data channel corresponding to the MBS service.
[0123] Here, starting to monitor the corresponding control channel includes, but is not limited to, starting to monitor the PDCCH corresponding to MBS. For example, if the scheduling identifier corresponding to MBS service #1 is G-RNTI-1, and the corresponding control channel is G-RNTI-1 PDCCH, the terminal can start to monitor the G-RNTI-1 PDCCH.
[0124] Starting to monitor the data channel corresponding to the MBS service includes, but is not limited to, starting to monitor the PDSCH corresponding to MBS. For example, if MBS service #1 corresponds to data transmission by semi-persistent SPS PDSCH-1, the terminal can start to monitor the SPS PDSCH-1.
[0125] In some selectable embodiments, when the terminal determines that the initial monitoring state is to stop receiving monitoring of the MBS service, or when it receives target control information for deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBS service, the terminal can stop the reception monitoring of the MBS service. Accordingly, the terminal can perform at least one of the steps of stopping or not starting at least one of the first timer, the second timer, the third timer, and the fourth timer; stop monitoring the control channel corresponding to the MBS service; stop monitoring the data channel corresponding to the MBS service.
[0126] Here, the terminal can stop or not start the at least one timer based on the reception setting information corresponding to the MBS service. Also, the terminal can stop monitoring the control channel corresponding to the MBS service. For example, it can stop monitoring the G-RNTI-1 PDCCH. The terminal can also stop monitoring the data channel corresponding to the MBS service. For example, it can stop monitoring the SPS PDSCH-1.
[0127] In the above embodiment, the terminal can start or stop the reception monitoring of the MBS service, avoiding the leakage of the MBS service or the waste of the terminal's power consumption, and has high availability.
[0128] In some selectable embodiments, the content of the target control information for activating or deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBS service of the terminal received by the terminal side may include at least one of MBS service indication information and MBS service activation status information, but is not limited thereto.
[0129] Here, the MBS service indication information can include at least one of an MBS service identifier (for example, the MBS service identifier related to the background art) and an MBS scheduling identifier, but is not limited thereto.
[0130] Furthermore, the MBS scheduling identifier can include at least one of a dynamic scheduling identifier such as a G-RNTI and a semi-persistent scheduling identifier such as an SPS-RNTI, but is not limited thereto.
[0131] Here, the activation status information of the MBS service can include, but is not limited to, at least one of an activated state (or a state of "starting to receive monitoring of the MBS service") and a deactivated state (or a state of "stopping to receive monitoring of the MBS service").
[0132] The above is merely an exemplary description, and all other information contents of the target control information for activating or deactivating the reception monitoring of the MBS service by the terminal should belong to the protection scope of the present disclosure.
