It should further be understood that, in the embodiments of the present application, the “protocol” may refer to a standard protocol in the field of communication, which may include, for example, an LTE protocol, an NR protocol, and related protocols applied in the future communication system, and the present application is not limited thereto.
As shown in
However, since the ROHC protocol and the EHC protocol are compression technologies for the packet header, that is, the ROHC protocol and the EHC protocol do not support compression for data portion, nor compression of both the header and the data portion. In view of this, the embodiments of the present application provide a wireless communication method and a communication device, which can implement a compression or decompression operation on the data packet header, thereby improving system performance.
As shown in
Exemplarily, when the communication device performs the compression operation based on the UDC protocol, a UDC packet may be generated, and the UDC packet may include a UDC header and a UDC data block. When the communication device performs the decompression operation based on the UDC protocol, the communication device performs the decompression operation on a received UDC packet based on the UDC protocol.
In this embodiment, by introducing the uplink data compression (UDC) protocol and performing the compression or decompression operation on the first data packet based on at least one compression protocol including the UDC protocol, the compression or decompression operation on the data packet header can be implemented, thereby improving system performance. In some implementations, performing the compression or decompression operation on the first data packet based on at least one compression protocol including the UDC protocol can save UL resources and reduce transmission delay.
Exemplarily, when the first data packet is a to-be-compressed data packet, the communication device performs the compression operation on the first data packet based on the at least one compression protocol; when the first data packet is a compressed data packet, the communication device may perform the decompression operation on the first data packet based on the at least one compression protocol.
Exemplarily, the first data packet may be a Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) Protocol Data Unit (PDU) or a PDCP service data unit (SDU). Of course, the first data packet may also be a Service Data Adaptation Protocol (SDAP) PDU, which is not specifically limited in the present application.
Exemplarily, when the first data packet is the to-be-compressed data packet, the first data packet may include at least one of the following:
Exemplarily, when the first data packet is the compressed data packet, the first data packet may include at least one of the following:
Exemplarily, the data block may be data formed by compression for the payload or the remaining portion.
It should be understood that, the description involved in the present application “performing a compression or decompression operation on a first data packet based on at least one compression protocol” may also be equivalently replaced by a description with a same or similar meaning, which is not specifically limited in the present application. Exemplarily, the “performing a compression or decompression operation on a first data packet based on at least one compression protocol” may be equivalently replaced by any of the following:
Similarly, the term “UDC protocol” involved in the present application may be replaced by “UDC function”, “UDC module”, “UDC configuration”, “UDC function enabled by UDC configuration”, “UDC module enabled by UDC configuration”, “UDC configuration used by UDC function”, “UDC module used by UDC configuration” and other descriptions with a same or similar meaning. In addition, the term “ROHC protocol” involved in the present application may be replaced by “ROHC function”, “ROHC module”, “ROHC configuration”, “ROHC function enabled by ROHC configuration”, “ROHC module enabled by ROHC configuration”, “ROHC configuration used by ROHC function”, “ROHC module used by ROHC configuration” and other descriptions with a same or similar meaning. In addition, the term “EHC protocol” involved in the present application may be replaced by “EHC function”, “EHC module”, “EHC configuration”, “EHC function enabled by the EHC configuration”, “EHC module enabled by the EHC configuration”, “EHC configuration used by the EHC function”, “EHC module used by the EHC configuration” and other descriptions with a same or similar meaning, the present application does not specifically limit thereto.
In some embodiments, when a compression buffer and a decompression buffer are synchronized, the communication device performs the compression or decompression operation based on the UDC protocol. When asynchronism or an error is detected, a buffer reset mechanism may be used to reset the buffer. For resynchronization, the terminal device needs to reset the compression buffer to all zeros. Exemplarily, the asynchronism or error of the compression buffer and the decompression buffer may be indicated by a UDC checksum error notification PDCP control PDU, and when the terminal device receives the notification, a buffer reset process of the terminal device is triggered, thereby resetting the buffer. Resetting the buffer may refer to resetting the compression buffer.
In some embodiments, the at least one compression protocol further includes at least one of the following protocols: an Ethernet frame header compression (EHC) protocol, or a robust header compression (ROHC) protocol.
In some embodiments, the service data adaptation protocol (SDAP) header in the first data packet is not compressed; and/or, when the first data packet is an SDAP control protocol data unit (PDU), the SDAP control PDU is not compressed.
In some embodiments, the service data adaptation protocol (SDAP) header in the first data packet is compressed; and/or, when the first data packet is the SDAP control protocol data unit (PDU), the SDAP control PDU is compressed.
