本公开涉及无线通信技术，尤其涉及一种无线通信的方法及装置、通信设备及存储介质。The present disclosure relates to wireless communication technologies, and in particular, to a method and apparatus for wireless communication, a communication device, and a storage medium.

Background technique

无线保真(Wireless Fidelity，Wi-Fi)通信设备支持多连接的情况下，接入点(Access Point，AP)与站点(Station，STA)为多连接设备(Multi-Link Device，MLD)类型，如果继续采用随机省电(Opportunistic Power Save，OPS)机制使得设备省电，需在多连接下的每个连接下都发送OPS帧，这样会造成大量的信令开销，不利于设备省电，而现有的OPS机制只是单连接下应用的机制，并不适用于多连接场景。In the case of wireless fidelity (Wireless Fidelity, Wi-Fi) communication equipment supporting multiple connections, the access point (Access Point, AP) and station (Station, STA) are of the multi-link device (Multi-Link Device, MLD) type, If the Opportunistic Power Save (OPS) mechanism continues to be used to save the power of the device, the OPS frame needs to be sent under each connection under the multi-connection, which will cause a lot of signaling overhead, which is not conducive to the power saving of the device. The existing OPS mechanism is only a mechanism applied under a single connection, and is not suitable for a multi-connection scenario.

图1是根据一示例性实施例示出的无线通信的方法的流程示意图，如图1所示，本公开实施例的无线通信的方法包括以下处理步骤：FIG. 1 is a schematic flowchart of a method for wireless communication according to an exemplary embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1 , the method for wireless communication according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes the following processing steps:

步骤101，通过第一连接发送连接建立请求帧。Step 101: Send a connection establishment request frame through the first connection.

其中，所述连接建立请求帧包含所述连接建立请求帧发送方的多连接OPS能力信息。Wherein, the connection establishment request frame includes multi-connection OPS capability information of the sender of the connection establishment request frame.

本公开实施例中，所述连接建立请求帧发送方的多连接OPS能力信息包括：所述连接建立请求帧发送方支持的多连接中每一连接的OPS能力信息；或所述连接建立请求帧发送方支持的多连接中具有OPS能力的连接的信息。即STA可以将自身支持的所有连接的OPS能力信息向AP上报，或者，STA仅上报自身支持的所有连接中具有OPS能力的连接的信息。本领域技术人员应当理解，只要是能实现STA与AP之间关于多连接OPS能力的交互即可，本公开实施例不限定具体的信息或消息格式。In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the multi-connection OPS capability information of the connection establishment request frame sender includes: OPS capability information of each connection in the multi-connection supported by the connection establishment request frame sender; or the connection establishment request frame Information about OPS-capable connections in the multi-connection supported by the sender. That is, the STA may report the OPS capability information of all the connections supported by itself to the AP, or the STA may only report the information of the connections with the OPS capability among all the connections supported by the STA. Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit specific information or message formats as long as the interaction between the STA and the AP regarding the multi-connection OPS capability can be realized.

在本公开实施例中，所述第一连接可以为初始关联连接，对应地，所述连接建立请求帧为初始连接建立消息帧。In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the first connection may be an initial association connection, and correspondingly, the connection establishment request frame is an initial connection establishment message frame.

本公开实施例的技术方案，适用于STA与AP之间的通信连接。STA与AP之间建立的初始关联连接，可以由STA发起，示例性地，包括以下的一个或多个子步骤，例如:①STA在初始接入过程中向AP发送关联请求(association request)帧或探测请求(probe request)帧，②STA与AP交换其支持在多连接能够进行通信的能力信息值，③AP向STA回复关联响应(association response)帧，association response帧中携带分配给 STA的AID，以及AP所支持的多连接的能力信息值。当然，上述的子步骤①、子步骤②、子步骤③中的每一个子步骤都是可选的，即每一个子步骤可以单独使用或结合使用，还可以单独或一起结合其他步骤使用，本公开实施例中并不对此做出限定。The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure are applicable to the communication connection between the STA and the AP. The initial association connection established between the STA and the AP can be initiated by the STA, and exemplarily, includes one or more of the following sub-steps, for example: 1. The STA sends an association request (association request) frame or probe to the AP during the initial access process request (probe request) frame, ② STA and AP exchange the capability information value that it supports to communicate in multiple connections, ③ AP replies to STA with an association response (association response) frame, the association response frame carries the AID assigned to the STA, as well as the AID assigned by the AP. The value of the capability information for the supported multi-connection. Of course, each of the above-mentioned sub-steps ①, sub-steps ②, and sub-steps ③ is optional, that is, each sub-step can be used alone or in combination, and can also be used alone or in combination with other steps. This is not limited in the disclosed embodiments.

或者，所述第一连接也可以是所述连接建立请求帧发送方支持的多连接中任一连接，对应地，所述连接建立请求帧为多连接建立请求帧。所述连接建立请求帧为多连接建立请求帧时，在初始连接建立后，通过所述多连接中任一连接发送所述多连接建立请求帧。这里，所述多连接中的任一连接，包括初始关联连接。Alternatively, the first connection may also be any connection among the multiple connections supported by the sender of the connection establishment request frame. Correspondingly, the connection establishment request frame is a multiple connection establishment request frame. When the connection establishment request frame is a multi-connection establishment request frame, after the initial connection is established, the multi-connection establishment request frame is sent through any connection in the multi-connection. Here, any connection in the multiple connections includes an initial associated connection.

作为一种实现方式，关于STA与AP之间交互OPS能力信息的方式，可以通过表1所示的信息单元进行：As an implementation manner, regarding the manner of exchanging OPS capability information between the STA and the AP, the information elements shown in Table 1 can be used:

OPSOPS Link mapLink map

表1Table 1

如表1所示，OPS部分表示支持OPS，可以由1比特字符指示，如该OPS部分被配置为“1”或“0”，用于表示“Link map”部分指示的多连接具有OPS能力。As shown in Table 1, the OPS part indicates that OPS is supported, which can be indicated by a 1-bit character. For example, the OPS part is configured as "1" or "0", which is used to indicate that the multi-connection indicated by the "Link map" part has OPS capability.

在一些实施例中，Link map的每一个bit位对应于一个连接，且该bit位的值用于该bit位的值用于标识对应的连接是否具有OPS能力。例如，Link map为一个具有8个bit位的bitmap，8个bit位对应于8个连接。如果Link set设置为“00000111”，则标识STA中的第6、7、8连接具有OPS能力。在Link set对应的标识位中，每一顺序的标识位分别表示STA所支持的连接的标号，每一顺序的标识位置“1”时，表示该对应顺序的连接具有OPS，每一顺序的标识位置“0”时，表示该对应顺序的连接无OPS能力。如当STA所支持的第2、3、5连接具有OPS能力时，对应的Link map被设置为“01101000”。当然，也可以用1代表无OPS能力，而0代表具有OPS能力，本公开实施例并不对此做出限定。In some embodiments, each bit of the Link map corresponds to a connection, and the value of the bit is used to identify whether the corresponding connection has the OPS capability. For example, Link map is a bitmap with 8 bits, 8 bits correspond to 8 connections. If Link set is set to "00000111", it indicates that the 6th, 7th, and 8th connections in the STA have OPS capability. In the identification bits corresponding to the Link set, the identification bits of each sequence respectively represent the label of the connection supported by the STA. When the identification position of each sequence is "1", it indicates that the connection in the corresponding sequence has OPS, and the identification of each sequence When the position is "0", it indicates that the connection in the corresponding sequence has no OPS capability. For example, when the 2nd, 3rd, and 5th connections supported by the STA have the OPS capability, the corresponding Link map is set to "01101000". Of course, 1 may also be used to represent no OPS capability, and 0 may be used to represent OPS capability, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present disclosure.

在另一些实施例中，所述Link map的所有或部分bit位对应的取值，代表其所对应的连接。例如，例如，Link map为一个具有4个bit位的bitmap，其取值为0～15；其可以对应于最大16个不同的连接组合；发送方和接收方都预先知道每一个连接组合各自包括那些连接。例如Link map设置为“0001”，则第1连接组合中的连接具有OPS能力；Link map设置为“0100”，则第4连接组合中的连接具有OPS能力；Link map设置为“0110”，则第6连接组合中的连接具有OPS能力等。In other embodiments, the values corresponding to all or part of the bits of the Link map represent the corresponding connections. For example, for example, Link map is a bitmap with 4 bits, and its value is 0 to 15; it can correspond to a maximum of 16 different connection combinations; both the sender and the receiver know in advance that each connection combination includes those connections. For example, if the Link map is set to "0001", the connection in the first connection combination has the OPS capability; if the Link map is set to "0100", the connection in the fourth connection combination has the OPS capability; if the Link map is set to "0110", then The connections in the sixth connection combination have OPS capabilities and the like.

或者，STA与AP之间交互OPS能力信息的方式，还可以通过表2所示的信息单元进行：Alternatively, the way of exchanging OPS capability information between the STA and the AP can also be performed through the information elements shown in Table 2:

OPSOPS Link1Link1 OPSOPS Link2Link2 OPSOPS Link3Link3 ……...

表2Table 2

在本公开实施例中，也可以通过连接标识及设置与该连接标识对应的OPS能力指示信息的方式来交互多连接的OPS能力信息。如表2所示，连接标识之前的OPS部分指示该连接是否具有OPS能力。当然，也可以先连接标识后OPS能力指示信息的表格方式。或者，作为一种实现方式，也可以是先把STA具有OPS能力的连接标识置于如表2的前部，而后一部分是该连接标识对应的连接是否具有OPS能力的指示信息。也可以用1代表无OPS能力，而0代表具有OPS能力，也可以用0代表无OPS能力，而1代表具有OPS能力。本公开实施例并不对此做出限定。In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the OPS capability information of multiple connections may also be exchanged by means of a connection identifier and setting OPS capability indication information corresponding to the connection identifier. As shown in Table 2, the OPS part before the connection identifier indicates whether the connection has OPS capability. Of course, the form of the OPS capability indication information may also be connected first. Alternatively, as an implementation manner, the connection identifier of the STA with the OPS capability may be placed in the front part of Table 2, and the latter part is the indication information whether the connection corresponding to the connection identifier has the OPS capability. Alternatively, 1 may be used to represent no OPS capability, and 0 may be used to represent OPS capability, or 0 may be used to represent no OPS capability, and 1 may be used to represent OPS capability. The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit this.

在本公开实施例中，所述方法还包括：In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the method further includes:

通过所述连接建立请求帧发送方支持的多连接中的一个连接接收OPS帧或快速初始连接建立(Fast Initial Link Set-up，FILS)帧；其中，所述OPS帧或FILS帧包含所述连接建立请求帧发送方支持的多连接的标识信息及每一连接进行OPS的期间信息。STA通过自身所支持的多连接中的一个连接接收OPS帧或FILS帧，以获取AP指示的STA所支持的多连接中哪一些或哪一个需要执行OPS机制，以及什么期间执行OPS机制。Receive an OPS frame or a Fast Initial Link Set-up (FILS) frame through one of the multiple connections supported by the connection establishment request frame sender; wherein the OPS frame or FILS frame contains the connection The identification information of the multiple connections supported by the sender of the establishment request frame and the period information of each connection performing OPS. The STA receives an OPS frame or a FILS frame through one of the multiple connections supported by itself, so as to obtain which or which of the multiple connections supported by the STA indicated by the AP needs to execute the OPS mechanism, and during which period the OPS mechanism is executed.

在本公开实施例中，可以通过表3所示的信息格式，由AP向STA指示STA所支持的多连接中的哪些或那个需要执行OPS，以及在什么期间执行OPS。In the embodiment of the present disclosure, through the information format shown in Table 3, the AP may indicate to the STA which or which of the multiple connections supported by the STA needs to perform OPS, and during which OPS is performed.

表3table 3

如表3所示，由左至右各信息元分别包括信元标识，长度，信元标识扩展，OPS期间，连接标识，OPS期间，连接标识……。通过表3所示的信息格式，AP可以向STA指示哪些连接需要执行OPS，以及执行OPS期间。本公开实施例中，需要执行OPS的各连接对应的OPS期间可以相同，或部分相同，或者各不相同。As shown in Table 3, each information element from left to right includes a cell identifier, a length, a cell identifier extension, an OPS period, a connection identifier, an OPS period, a connection identifier . . . Through the information format shown in Table 3, the AP can indicate to the STA which connections need to perform OPS, and during which OPS is performed. In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the OPS period corresponding to each connection that needs to perform the OPS may be the same, or partially the same, or different from each other.

上述表3所示的信息元，可以承载于OPS帧或FILS帧，由AP向STA发送。The information elements shown in Table 3 above may be carried in an OPS frame or a FILS frame, and sent by the AP to the STA.
