Description
FIELD

The present application relates to the field of communication, and in particular to dynamic data transmission methods and apparatuses, and a storage medium.


BACKGROUND

With the continuous development and improvement of the 5th generation mobile communication (5G) technology, low-latency, high-bandwidth services and scenarios for consumers have become current focus. An extended reality (XR) service is one of them.


It is conducive to the periodicity of semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) because of quasi-periodic features of the XR service. On one hand, data may be transmitted on a pre-configured periodic physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), and no scheduling request is needed. On the other hand, PDSCH transmission may be performed in SPS scheduling during a discontinuous reception (DRX)-off period. Therefore, SPS scheduling in the related art may be applied to XR service transmission.


However, XR service transmission using a traditional SPS scheduling has a problem of large transmission delay.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

In order to illustrate the embodiments of the present application clearly, the solutions in the embodiments of the present application are clearly and completely described in the following in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the present application. These embodiments are a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments.



FIG. 1 is a first schematic flowchart of a dynamic data transmission method according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 1, the dynamic data transmission method according to an embodiment of the present application may be applied to a network side device, such as a base station, etc. The method includes the following steps.


Step 101: configuring dynamic resource indication information associated with semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) for a terminal.


In an embodiment, the network side device first configures the dynamic resource indication information associated with the SPS for the terminal.


The terminal determines the dynamic resource indication information associated with the SPS transmitted from the network side device.


For the dynamic resource indication information, it may be downlink control information (DCI) signaling associated with SPS, or it may be resource information (for example, a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) resource) carried by the DCI associated with the SPS. There may be one or multiple pieces of dynamic resource indication information associated with the SPS. The embodiments of the present application are described by taking one piece of dynamic resource indication information associated with the SPS as an example. The situation of multiple pieces of dynamic resource indication information associated with the SPS is similar thereto and is not described again here.


In an embodiment, the dynamic resource indication information is a DCI signaling associated with SPS, and resource allocation information is carried through the DCI signaling.


In an embodiment, the method further includes:

    • configuring, by the network side device, monitoring position information for the DCI signaling for the terminal.


In an embodiment, the monitoring position information includes one or more of the following information.


In one embodiment, monitoring position information semi-statically configured through higher layer signaling.


In an embodiment, in case that the monitoring position information includes the monitoring position information configured semi-statically through the higher layer signaling, the network side device configures the monitoring position information for the DCI signaling for the terminal by the following.


1. The network side device configures a monitoring start time for the DCI signaling for the terminal.


The monitoring start time includes one or more of the following information:

    • (1) a time point associated with SPS; and
    • (2) an independent time point.


2. The network side device configures a monitoring window for the DCI signaling for the terminal.


The network side device configures the monitoring window for the DCI signaling for the terminal by the following.


(1) The network side device configures a monitoring start time and a duration of the monitoring window for the DCI signaling for the terminal.


The monitoring start time includes one or more of the following information:

    • i. a time point associated with SPS; and
    • ii. an independent time point.


The duration of the monitoring window for the DCI signaling may be indicated explicitly or implicitly.


The duration of the monitoring window for the DCI signaling may be indicated explicitly by one or more of the following:

    • carrying the duration of the monitoring window for the DCI signaling in L1 signaling;
    • carrying the duration of the monitoring window for the DCI signaling in a media access control (MAC) layer signaling; and
    • carrying the duration of the monitoring window for the DCI signaling in higher layer signaling.


The duration of the monitoring window for the DCI signaling may be indicated implicitly by configuring a monitoring timer for the terminal, and the terminal may determine the duration of the monitoring window for the DCI signaling based on the monitoring timer.


(2) The network side device configures a monitoring start time and a monitoring end time of a monitoring window for the DCI signaling for the terminal.


The monitoring start time and/or the monitoring end time includes one or more of the following information:

    • i. a time point associated with SPS; and
    • ii. an independent time point.


In an embodiment, the monitoring position information further includes one or more of the following information.


1. A time point associated with SPS.


The time point associated with SPS may be a relative time point.


In an embodiment, the time point associated with SPS is one or more of the following time points.


(1) A time point associated with an SPS PDSCH


In an embodiment, the time point associated with SPS may be a time point associated with a start slot/an end slot/a start symbol/an end symbol of the SPS PDSCH.



FIG. 2 is a first schematic diagram of an SPS PDSCH enhancement scheme according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 2, for example, at a time offset after the start slot of the SPS PDSCH, the DCI signaling starts to be monitored.


(2) A time point associated with a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ)-acknowledge (ACK) for the SPS PDSCH


In an embodiment, the time point associated with the HARQ-ACK for the SPS PDSCH may be a time point associated with a start slot/an end slot/a start symbol/an end symbol of the SPS PDSCH.


As shown in FIG. 2, for example, the DCI signaling starts to be monitored at a time offset after the end slot of the HARQ-ACK for the SPS PDSCH.


(3) A time point associated with expiring of an SPS PDSCH round trip time (RTT) timer


In an embodiment, the time point associated with expiring of the SPS PDSCH RTT timer may be a time point associated with a start slot/an end slot/a start symbol/an end symbol of the expiring of the SPS PDSCH RTT timer.


As shown in FIG. 2, for example, the DCI signaling starts to be monitored at a time offset after a start symbol of the expiring of the SPS PDSCH RTT timer.


In an embodiment, a time unit of an offset value of the monitoring position information relative to the time point may be a slot, a span, a symbol or millisecond.


In an embodiment, the time offset between the monitoring position information and the time point may be configured, and the time unit may be millisecond, a slot, or a symbol.


For example, the specific unit of the start time may be the start symbol of a slot, or a symbol position of a slot. The duration of the monitoring window may be several consecutive slots, or several consecutive symbols in a slot, or several fixed symbols in several consecutive slots. A length unit of the timer may be millisecond, slot, or symbol.


It should be noted that a value of the time offset between the start time and a time point associated with the start slot/end slot/start symbol/end symbol of SPS PDSCH or HARQ-ACK for the SPS PDSCH or expiring of the SPS PDSCH RTT timer may be greater than or equal to 0, that is, the above time point is the start time, or the start time is located at an offset time position subsequent to the above time point. The value of the time offset may be less than 0, that is, the start time is located at an offset time position ahead of the above time point.


In one embodiment, the value of the time offset between the start time and a time point associated with the start slot/end slot/start symbol/end symbol of SPS PDSCH or HARQ-ACK for the SPS PDSCH or expiring of the SPS PDSCH RTT timer may be greater than or equal to 0, but the start time point may be the above time point, or the start time point may be located at an offset time position subsequent to the above time point, or the start time point may be located at an offset time position ahead of the above time point.


2. An independent time point


The independent time point may be a specific time point, or a specific time point determined by the terminal through calculation. This independent time point may be independent of the SPS.


For example, the start time may be an absolute time, that is, a specific time calculated by the terminal based on a system frame number (SFN) through configuring a periodicity and an offset.


For example, a slot number of the start time satisfies the following conditions: (nf. Nslotframe,μ+ns,fμ−os)modks=0,


where nf is the frame number, ns,fμ, is a slot number per subcarrier μ, Nslotframe,μ is the number of slots included in a subframe per subcarrier μ, ks is the monitoring period, and os is the offset value.


In another embodiment, monitoring position information dynamically adjusted based on first information.


The base station configures first information for the terminal to dynamically indicate changes in monitoring position information, for example, dynamically indicating one or more of a size of the monitoring window, the monitoring start position, and the monitoring end position.


For example, it indicates how long the terminal continues to monitor after dynamically scheduled DCI is monitored.


The first information may be carried in the L1 signaling, the MAC signaling or the higher layer signaling.


For example, the first information may be a monitoring timer or duration, or indication signaling information, or a reference signal. The monitoring timer is taken as an example, when the monitoring timer does not expire, the terminal may continue to perform service-specific DCI monitoring. When service data packet is transmitted at the end of the monitoring window due to delay jitter, the data packet needs to wait for a subsequent monitoring window or monitoring occasion to be transmitted. The configuration of the monitoring timer may help reduce the transmission delay caused by the delay jitter.


In an embodiment, the monitoring occasion (MO) for the DCI signaling may be one of the following.


(1) It may be configured through the configuration of a traditional search space set.


For example, the parameters, such as a monitoring periodicity and offset, a frequency domain aggregation level (AL), etc., are configured.


(2) It may be configured through associated configurations on a single MO (this may be at the slot level or span level).


(3) It may be associated with an index value of a search space.


In an embodiment, a time unit of the MO for DCI signaling may be a slot or a span, or the monitoring occasion may be configured by associating the index value of the search space.


Step 102: indicating dynamic data transmission by using the dynamic resource indication information during a discontinuous reception (DRX)-off period.


In an embodiment, after the network side device configures the dynamic resource indication information associated with the SPS for the terminal, the network side device indicates dynamic data transmission by using the dynamic resource indication information during the DRX-off period.


After the terminal determines the dynamic resource indication information associated with the SPS transmitted from the network side device, the terminal receives dynamic data based on the dynamic resource indication information during the DRX-off period.


In an embodiment, the method further includes the following steps.


The network side device transmits a dynamic transmission indicator to the terminal, where the dynamic transmission indicator is configured for indicating the terminal that the network side device performs dynamic data transmission.


The base station indicates the terminal to perform subsequent dynamic transmission indicators, indicating that the terminal may monitor the dynamically scheduled DCI after SPS PDSCH reception; otherwise, the terminal performs regular SPS PDSCH reception.


In an embodiment, the dynamic transmission indicator is indicated through L1 signaling, media access control (MAC) control element (CE) signaling, a power saving signal or higher layer signaling.


For example, in case that the terminal receives the following indications, and the base station configures monitoring position information for the dynamically scheduled DCI, it means that the terminal may monitor the dynamically scheduled DCI after the SPS PDSCH reception. Otherwise, the terminal performs regular SPS PDSCH reception. Specific indications include one or more of the following.


1. The terminal capability supports monitoring the dynamically scheduling DCI after the SPS PDSCH reception.


2. The terminal is indicated by scheduling DCI (such as: SPS PDSCH activation DCI, SPS PDSCH retransmission DCI, etc.).


3. The terminal is indicated by MAC CE to monitor the dynamically schedule DCI after subsequent SPS PDSCH reception.


4. The higher layer signaling is configured with a switch, indicating that monitoring dynamically scheduled DCI after the SPS PDSCH reception may be supported.


5. The terminal is indicated by the power saving signal to monitor the dynamically schedule DCI after subsequent SPS PDSCH reception.


It should be noted that the combination of several indications refers to the simultaneous presence of several of the above indications, for example: terminal capability and scheduling DCI indications, or terminal capability and switches configured by the higher layer signaling, etc., which are not described again here.


In an embodiment, in case that SPS PDSCH does not complete data transmission in a buffer of the network side device side, the network side device may indicate the terminal to monitor dynamically scheduled DCI after SPS PDSCH.


After the terminal receives the dynamic transmission indicator transmitted from the network side device, the terminal continues to monitor the dynamically scheduled DCI starting from the monitoring start position configured by the network side device and the granularity of monitoring is MO. That is, the terminal receives dynamic data based on the dynamic resource indication information during the DRX-off period.


In the dynamic data transmission method provided by the embodiments of the present application, SPS PDSCH transmission is assisted through dynamic scheduling within DRX off period to complete the transmission of data services with large differences in data size. In case that the data packet is large, and the reserved SPS PDSCH resources are insufficient, data packet transmission is assisted without waiting for the next SPS PDSCH or DRX on period. In case that the data packet is small, the periodicity of reserved SPS PDSCH resources and dynamic scheduling resources may be used to complete data transmission and the transmission delay is reduced.


In an embodiment, the method further includes the following step:

    • transmitting a stop indicator to the terminal, where the stop indicator is configured for indicating the terminal that the network side device stops dynamic data transmission.


In an embodiment, in case that a specific condition is met or the base station transmits an indication, the terminal stops monitoring the DCI in the monitoring window for the dynamically scheduled DCI.


For example, in case that the terminal completes data packet transmission, in order to avoid unnecessary DCI monitoring, the base station indicates the terminal to stop monitoring DCI in the monitoring window for the dynamically scheduled DCI.


In an embodiment, the stop indicator is carried through L1 signaling, media access control (MAC) control element (CE) signaling, a power saving signal or higher layer signaling.



FIG. 3 is a second schematic diagram of a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) enhancement scheme according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 3, for example, in case that a specific condition is met or the base station transmits an indication, the terminal is indicated to stop monitoring the DCI in the monitoring window for the dynamically scheduled DCI. It may be any one or a combination of the following conditions.


1. The terminal receives the scheduled DCI whose scheduling information is dummy.


2. The terminal stops monitoring the DCI in case that a configured timer expires. The configured timer is independent of the monitoring window.


3. The terminal receives SPS PDSCH release DCI.


It should be noted that the combination here refers to the simultaneous presence of the above-mentioned indications. If any one of them is met, monitoring the dynamically scheduled DCI may be stopped.


For example, in case that a monitoring timer and the scheduled DCI whose scheduling information is dummy are configured at the same time, either one of above conditions is met, monitoring the dynamically scheduled DCI may be stopped, which is not described again here.


In the embodiment of the present application, stopping monitoring the DCI may mean that the terminal skips monitoring, or the terminal enters sleep.


By the dynamic data transmission method provided by the embodiments of the present application, monitoring the dynamically scheduled DCI is stopped when specific conditions are met, which may reduce signaling overhead and improve frequency spectrum utilization.
