Description

波束上报和调整方法及装置、用户设备、基站 技术领域
本公开涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种波束上报和调整方法及装置、用户设备、基站、计算机可读存储介质。
背景技术
随着无线通信技术的飞速发展,出现了第五代移动通信技术(5th Generation,简称为5G)系统。5G系统将面向高频段应用,即6GHz以上频段的应用。在高频段,因为无线电波的传播特性不好,因此传统的全向发送将不再适用,需要引入波束(beam)扫描和波束管理来进行通信。
同步信号块(SSB)作为初始接入过程中下行beam测量的基准,它包含beam索引(ID),这样,UE可以按照索引来上报Beam。
5G系统中存在不同类型的UE,其中,一种重要的类型就是低时延用户设备(UE),这类UE对时延要求高,同时还不能太费电。寻呼(paging)的主要作用是通知处于空闲(Idle)态的UE有连接请求,以及通知处于Idle和连接态的UE系统消息发生了变化。但是基站在向处于空闲态的UE发送寻呼消息时,由于不知道UE的位置,所以只能采用全部波束扫描的方式发送,这必然带来信息冗余和时延问题。
相关技术中,当UE得到寻呼通知后,通过主动上报Beam的方式使得基站在上报的Beam方向上发送寻呼信息。
但因为寻呼不是针对一个UE发送,而通常是针对一组UE发送,这会给一组中其他UE带来误报,增加未被寻呼UE的功耗和系统的上行负荷。

具体实施方式
这里将详细地对示例性实施例进行说明,其示例表示在附图中。下面的描述涉及附图时,除非另有表示,不同附图中的相同数字表示相同或相似的要素。以下示例性实施例中所描述的实施方式并不代表与本发明相一致的所有实施方式。相反,它们仅是与如所附权利要求书中所详述的、本发明的一些方面相一致的装置和方法的例子。
图1是本申请一示例性实施例示出的一种波束上报方法的流程图,该实施例从UE侧进行描述,如图1所示,该波束上报方法包括:
在步骤S101中,若下行同步得到的同步信号块(SSB)的索引不在预先确定的波束窗口内的次数达到预设次数,则向基站上报波束更新消息。
在该实施例中,UE在进行下行同步时,若得到的SSB的索引不在预先确定的波束窗口内的次数达到预设次数,则向基站上报波束更新消息,以使基站调整波束。
其中,预设次数可以根据需要进行设置,例如可以为3次等,当预设次数大于1次时,可以避免在某次得到的SSB的索引不在波束窗口内时,立即上报波束更新消息,从而避免因 误判导致的上报波束更新消息。
在步骤S102中,接收基站发送的波束更新确认消息。
基站在接收UE上报的波束更新消息之后,向UE发送波束更新确认消息,即通知UE基站进行了波束调整。
上述实施例,通过在下行同步得到的SSB的索引不在预先确定的波束窗口内的次数达到预设次数时,向基站上报波束更新消息,使得基站可以调整波束,从而使得UE和基站之间始终可以维持一定数量的波束,进而为后续通过部分波束接收寻呼消息提供了条件。

其中,寻呼控制信息可以为寻呼指示,也可以为物理下行控制信道(PDCCH)中携带的控制信息。
上述实施例,通过在接收基站发送的波束更新确认消息时,接收基站发送的寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息,既实现了寻呼消息的接收,又节省了传输资源。
图2B是本申请一示例性实施例示出的另一种波束上报方法的流程图,如图2B所示,在执行步骤S102之后,该波束上报方法还可以包括:
在步骤S104中,根据波束更新消息中携带的更新波束和预先接收的窗口大小值确定波束更新窗口。
在步骤S105中,在波束更新窗口接收基站发送的寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息。
在该实施例中,若在下个周期出现该UE的寻呼请求,则基站可以根据更新波束和预先配置的窗口大小值确定波束更新窗口,并在该波束更新窗口向该UE发送寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息。相应地,UE也根据更新波束和预先接收的窗口大小值确定波束更新窗口,并在波束更新窗口接收基站发送的寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息。
上述实施例,通过根据更新波束和预先接收的窗口大小值确定波束更新窗口,并在波束更新窗口接收基站发送的寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息,可以实现通过波束更新窗口接收寻呼消息,也即通过一定数量的波束而不是所有波束接收寻呼消息,因此,可以有效节省系统资 源。

基站在接收波束更新消息后,记录该波束更新消息。
在步骤S303中,向UE发送波束更新确认消息。
基站在调整波束后,向UE发送波束更新确认消息。
上述实施例,通过接收并记录UE上报的波束更新消息,然后向UE发送波束更新确认消息,从而实现调整波束,使得UE和基站之间始终可以维持一定数量的波束,进而为后续通过部分波束发送寻呼消息提供了条件。
图4是本申请一示例性实施例示出的另一种波束调整方法的流程图,该实施例从基站侧进行描述,如图4所示,该波束调整方法包括:
在步骤S401中,接收用户设备UE上报的波束更新消息。
在步骤S402中,记录波束更新消息。
在步骤S403中,若在当前周期出现UE的寻呼请求,则在向UE发送波束更新确认消息时,向UE发送寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息。
在该实施例中,如果当前周期出现UE的寻呼请求,则基站可以在向UE发送波束更新确认消息时,一起向UE发送寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息。
上述实施例,通过在向UE发送波束更新确认消息时,向UE发送寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息,既实现了寻呼消息的发送,又节省了传输资源。
图5是本申请一示例性实施例示出的另一种波束调整方法的流程图,该实施例从基站侧进行描述,如图5所示,该波束调整方法包括:
在步骤S501中,接收用户设备UE上报的波束更新消息。
在步骤S502中,记录波束更新消息。
在步骤S503中,向UE发送波束更新确认消息。
在步骤S504中,若在下个周期出现UE的寻呼请求,则在根据波束更新消息中携带的更新波束和预先配置的窗口大小值确定的波束更新窗口向UE发送寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息。
其中,该波束更新窗口可以在步骤S502中确定,也可以在步骤S504中确定。
在该实施例中,若在下个周期出现该UE的寻呼请求,则基站可以根据更新波束和预先配置的窗口大小值确定波束更新窗口,并在该波束更新窗口向该UE发送寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息。相应地,UE也根据更新波束和预先接收的窗口大小值确定波束更新窗口,并在波束更新窗口接收基站发送的寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息。
上述实施例,通过在波束更新窗口向UE发送寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息,可以实现通过波束更新窗口发送寻呼消息,也即通过一定数量的波束而不是所有波束发送寻呼消息,因此,可以有效节省系统资源。
图6是本申请一示例性实施例示出的一种波束发送方法的信令流程图,该实施例从UE和基站交互的角度进行描述,如图6所示,该波束发送方法包括:
在步骤S601中,基站为UE配置窗口大小值,并向该UE发送窗口大小值。
该步骤为可选步骤。
基站可以通过高层消息为UE配置窗口大小值。例如,可以通过无线资源控制(RRC)消息向该UE发送窗口大小值。
假设,基站在该步骤向UE发送了配置的窗口大小值,则UE可以根据用于下行同步的波束信息和该窗口大小值确定波束窗口。
例如,假设窗口大小值为2,用于下行同步的波束索引为2,则UE可以确定波束窗口为:beam{0,1,2,3,4}。
在步骤S602中,UE在进入不连续接收(DRX)之前向基站上报波束信息。
其中,不连续接收是指UE睡眠一段时间,醒来后检测一下是否有寻呼消息,然后继续睡眠。
在该实施例中,如果基站在之前未配置窗口大小值,则可以在UE上报波束信息的过程中为UE配置窗口大小值,UE可以根据用于下行同步的波束信息和该窗口大小值确定波束窗口。
在步骤S603中,基站根据为该UE配置的窗口大小值和所接收的UE上报的波束信息确定波束窗口。
例如,假设窗口大小值为2,UE上报的波束索引为2,则基站可以确定波束窗口为:beam{0,1,2,3,4}。
在步骤S604中,基站在该波束窗口向UE发送寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息。
其中,该寻呼控制信息可以为寻呼指示
在该实施例中,通过在确定的波束窗口向UE发送寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息,即通过一定数量的波束而不是所有波束发送寻呼消息,可以有效节省系统资源。
在步骤S605中,UE在确定的波束窗口接收基站发送的寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息。
在该实施例中,通过在确定的波束窗口接收基站发送的寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息,即通过一定数量的波束而不是所有波束接收寻呼消息,可以有效节省系统资源。
在步骤S606中,若UE下行同步得到的SSB的索引在波束窗口内但没接收到寻呼控制信息,则睡眠;若UE下行同步得到的SSB的索引在波束窗口内且接收到寻呼控制信息,则根据寻呼控制信息接收寻呼消息。
在该实施例中,UE睡醒后,进行下行同步,若下行同步得到的SSB的索引在波束窗口内但没接收到寻呼控制信息,则继续睡眠,以节省功耗。若下行同步得到的SSB的索引在波束窗口内且接收到寻呼控制信息,则根据寻呼控制信息接收寻呼消息,也即通过一定数量的波束而不是所有波束接收寻呼消息,可以有效节省系统资源。
在步骤S607中,若UE下行同步得到的SSB的索引不在波束窗口内的次数达到预设次数,则向基站上报波束更新消息。
在步骤S608中,基站接收该UE上报的波束更新消息,并记录该波束更新消息。
假设基站未收到UE上报的波束更新消息,则仍然按照之前确定的波束窗口发送寻呼消息。
在步骤S609中,基站向UE发送波束更新确认消息。
在步骤S610中,基站根据波束更新消息中携带的更新波束和预先配置的窗口大小值确定波束更新窗口。
如果当前出现该UE的寻呼请求,则基站在向UE发送波束更新确认消息时,一起向 UE发送寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息。
在步骤S611中,UE接收该波束更新确认消息,并根据更新波束和预先接收的窗口大小值确定波束更新窗口。
在步骤S612中,若在下个周期出现该UE的寻呼请求,则基站在波束更新窗口向该UE发送寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息。
在步骤S613中,UE在波束更新窗口接收基站发送的寻呼控制信息和寻呼消息。
上述实施例,通过UE和基站之间的交互,使得UE和基站之间可以维持一定数量的波束,从而可以通过一定数量的波束而不是所有波束来发送和接收寻呼消息,大大地节省了系统资源。
