Patent Description:
<NUM> new radio (NR) may be deployed within a range of high frequencies from <NUM> to <NUM>, therefore, the frequency range of each carrier in a <NUM> NR system may be larger than the frequency range of each carrier in a <NUM> long term evolution (LTE) system. In a <NUM> network, the bandwidth of a single band is close to <NUM>, and the bandwidth of a single carrier is between <NUM> and <NUM>. A single carrier may be divided into multiple band width parts (BWPs) for saving energy of UE in the <NUM> network. A base station may schedule UEs on one or more BWPs.

For some UEs such as Internet of Things (IoT) devices, transmission traffic in different time ranges may be different. If a base station schedules UE on a fixed bandwidth BWP, the bandwidth of the BWP may be used mainly for meeting the requirement of the UE to transmit broadband services, in such a case, resource waste can be caused within a time range during which a narrow-band service namely a low-data volume service is transmitted. On the contrary, if the bandwidth of the BWP is small, the transmission delay of the broadband service may be increased, which may degrade the user experience in use of a <NUM> network device.

Related technology is known from <NPL>" and <NPL>".

To overcome the problems in the related art, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods for adjusting information transmission, a base station, and UE, which avoid transmission loss in a BWP handover, as described in the appended claims <NUM>-<NUM>.

It should be understood that the above general descriptions and detailed descriptions below are only exemplary and explanatory and not intended to limit the present disclosure.

The execution subjects involved in the present disclosure can include: a base station and UE. The base station may be a base station, a sub-base station, or the like provided with a large-scale antenna array. The UE may be a user terminal, a user node, a mobile terminal, or a tablet. In a specific implementation, the base station and the UE are independent of each other and meanwhile are in contact with each other to jointly implement the technical solution provided by the present disclosure.

In an application scenario of the present disclosure, the transmission traffic volume of target UE in different time periods may change in a preset time period, such as one day or one month.

Based on this, in order to utilize wireless transmission resources reasonably, the present disclosure provides a method for adjusting information transmission, which is suitable for adjusting a scheduling mode to a periodic scheduling mode in the process of transmitting information by the target UE, or for determining a scheduling mode of the target UE as a periodic scheduling mode when the target UE accesses a network, and for achieving free handover between periodic scheduling and aperiodic scheduling according to the actual service requirement of the target UE.

<FIG> is a flowchart illustrating a method for adjusting information transmission according to an exemplary embodiment. The method is applied to a base station, and may include the following steps.

In step <NUM>, information of periodic-scheduling configuration of target UE is determined, the information of periodic-scheduling configuration being used for instructing the target UE to transmit service data periodically through at least two different BWPs.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the information of periodic-scheduling configuration may include: a preset cycle length T, at least two time windows arranged in a preset order within the cycle length T, and information of transmission configuration of a BWP corresponding to each time window. The information of transmission configuration of the BWP may include: a frequency range, and a time-frequency position of a CORESET. The amount of the time windows is greater than or equal to <NUM>; and the frequency ranges of at least two adjacent BWPs are different.

That is, the information of periodic-scheduling configuration may include: a preset cycle length T, at least two BWP transmission windows arranged in a preset order, and information of transmission configuration of each BWP transmission window. The information of transmission configuration of each BWP transmission window may include: a transmission duration, a frequency range, and a time-frequency position of a CORESET. Downlink control information (DCI) of the target UE may be carried in the CORESET of each BWP. The DCI of the target UE may include: scheduling control information of the target UE, reference signal configuration, and the like.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, in a case that at least two BWPs configured in a scheduling period determined by the base station include currently scheduled BWP0, the information of periodic-scheduling configuration may not include part of information of transmission configuration of BWP0, such as a range of working frequencies and a time-frequency position of the CORESET, thereby reducing the data volume of configuration information, and saving signaling overheads.

In the present disclosure, regarding the timing at which the base station is triggered to determine the information of periodic-scheduling configuration, there may be two situations as follows.

In the first situation, the base station determines the information of periodic-scheduling configuration initiatively under a preset trigger condition.

For example, upon when detecting that the target UE accesses a network, the base station may initiatively determine the information of periodic-scheduling configuration of the target UE according to equipment information of the UE, such as an identity and a device type.

In the second situation, after a periodic scheduling request is received from the target UE, the information of periodic-scheduling configuration is determined passively in response to the periodic scheduling request.

For the second situation, <FIG> is a flowchart illustrating another method for adjusting information transmission according to an exemplary embodiment. Step <NUM> may include the following operations.

In step <NUM>, a periodic scheduling request sent by the target UE for requesting periodic scheduling of resources is received, the periodic scheduling request at least including: an identity of the target UE and information of the periodic scheduling request. The information of the periodic scheduling request is information that is sent by the target UE to request the base station to start periodic scheduling for the target UE and also is information about how to periodically schedule transmission resources.

In the present disclosure, the information of the periodic scheduling request may be expressed in at least three forms according to different contents.

In the first form of expression, the information of the periodic scheduling request may be switch information for instructing to open a periodic scheduling mode, which for example, may be a <NUM>-bit value representing activation of the periodic scheduling mode, such as <NUM>.

In the second form of expression, the information of the periodic scheduling request may include: a cycle length, the amount of and an arrangement order of time windows within the cycle length, and a time-frequency range of a BWP corresponding to each time window.

In the third form of expression, the information of the periodic scheduling request may include: window numbers of preset BWP time-frequency resource windows and ranking information of the window numbers.

The base station may preset a certain number of BWP time-frequency resource windows according to a protocol. For example, there are <NUM> different BWP time-frequency resource windows, each BWP time-frequency resource window has a fixed window number, and each BWP time-frequency resource window has a preset frequency range and window duration. Each UE that accesses the network can also know information about the above BWP time-frequency resource windows in advance. Exemplarily, table <NUM> below may be used to indicate a correspondence between BWP time-frequency resources and window numbers:.

Exemplarily, the above information of the periodic scheduling request may include window numbers: <NUM>, <NUM>, and <NUM>. It means that the target UE expects to include three BWP time-frequency resource windows in a scheduling period configured by the base station for the target UE, which are: BWP1, BWP2, and BWP8, and the above three sub-windows are arranged in a period according to a preset time sequence such as a sequential order, that is, BWP1, BWP2 and BWP8 are scheduled sequentially in the above period.

In step <NUM>, the information of periodic-scheduling configuration of the target UE is determined according to the periodic scheduling request.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the base station may determine the above information of periodic-scheduling configuration according to different contents of the received periodic scheduling request in any of the following manners:.

Regarding determining the information of periodic-scheduling configuration according to the Manner <NUM>, or determining the information of periodic-scheduling configuration by the base station according to the identity of the target UE in the first situation, any of the following manners can be included:
In the first manner, a preset configuration information list is queried according to the equipment information of the target UE to determine the information of periodic-scheduling configuration corresponding to the target UE.

In an embodiment, it may be assumed that a preset configuration information list is stored in the base station, and the preset configuration information list includes a correspondence between an identity of UE and information of periodic-scheduling configuration. Exemplarily, as shown in Table <NUM>:.

Assuming that the identity of the target UE is UE1, it can be known from Table <NUM> that the information of periodic-scheduling configuration corresponding to UE1 is first periodic configuration information.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the base station may be pre-configured with different information of periodic-scheduling configuration corresponding to different device types. The base station may determine a device type of the target UE, such as a certain type of IoT device, according to the identity of the target device, and then determine information of periodic-scheduling configuration according to the device type of the target UE.

In the second manner, appropriate information of periodic-scheduling configuration may be determined according to the historical service transmission of the target UE.

<FIG> is a flowchart illustrating another method for adjusting information transmission according to an exemplary embodiment. Step <NUM> may include the following operations.

In step <NUM>-<NUM>, a service transmission record of the target UE within a preset historical duration is acquired.

If a historical service data transmission record of the target UE is stored in the base station, the base station may acquire a service transmission record of a preset historical duration. For example, the target UE may act as UE1, and the base station may acquire the service transmission record of UE1 recorded in the previous three months.

In step <NUM>-<NUM>, according to the service transmission record, a transmission ratio of different types of services within a period is calculated.

According to the above example, the base station may calculate the transmission ratio of the target device to transmit each service data within a period of time, such as one week or every day, according to the service transmission records in the above three months. It may be assumed that the statistical result is: a ratio of an average traffic W1 transmitted by UE1 per unit time within a first period t1 such as <NUM>:<NUM>-<NUM>:<NUM> one day to an average traffic W2 transmitted per unit time within left time namely a second period t2 such as <NUM>:<NUM>-<NUM>:<NUM> is <NUM>:<NUM>.

In step <NUM>-<NUM>, the information of periodic-scheduling configuration is determined according to the transmission ratio.

Correspondingly, the base station may determine the information of periodic-scheduling configuration according to the ratio of W1 to W2. The information of periodic-scheduling configuration may include a cycle length: <NUM> day. BWP1 may be scheduled in a first period t1; BWP2 may be scheduled in a second period t2; a bandwidth ratio of BWP1 to BWP2 is <NUM>: <NUM>.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, in a case that the base station is not pre-configured with the information of periodic-scheduling configuration of the target UE, the historical service data transmission record of the target UE may be used to calculate the change rule of service transmission in the time period, so as to determine the information of periodic-scheduling configuration according to the change rule of service transmission in the time period, thereby improving the intelligence of the base station.

In step <NUM>, the information of periodic-scheduling configuration is sent to the target UE to enable the target UE to make periodic-transmission configuration.

The base station may send the above information of periodic-scheduling configuration to the target UE to instruct the target UE to configure transmission parameters in different time windows, such as adjusting a range of working frequencies, so that the target UE can acquire its own DCI and transmission resources from different BWP time-frequency resources periodically scheduled by the base station.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the base station is currently scheduling the target UE on BWP0, the base station may send the above information of periodic-scheduling configuration to the target UE through BWP0.

In the present disclosure, the base station may send the above information of periodic-scheduling configuration to the target UE through broadcast signaling, upper layer signaling, or physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) signaling of a physical layer. The upper layer signaling may be radio resource control (RRC) signaling or a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE).

In step <NUM>, according to the information of periodic-scheduling configuration, the target UE is periodically scheduled on different BWPs for information transmission.

The base station may periodically schedule the target UE on the BWPs corresponding to different time windows according to the above cycle length T, specifically including: periodically configuring CORESET information on different BWPs, configuring DCI belonging to the target UE in the CORESET, allocating transmission resources to the target UE according to the DCI of the target UE, and using the above transmission resources to achieve information transmission with the target UE.

<FIG> is a schematic diagram of an application scenario for adjusting information transmission according to an exemplary embodiment. It may be assumed that a time window with a cycle length T includes two sub-windows, respectively: a first time window with a duration t1, and a second time window with a duration t2. In the first time window, the base station may schedule the target UE on BWP1; and in the second time window, the base station may schedule the target UE on BWP2. By analogy, the base station may schedule the target UE periodically on different BWPs according to the above periodic scheduling mode, so as to satisfy the objective that the target UE can transmit different amounts of service data or different service data in different periods. In <FIG>, the frequency ranges of BWP1 and BWP2 are different.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, in the information of periodic-scheduling configuration, the frequency ranges of BWPs corresponding to different time windows may also have overlapping portions, that is, the frequency range of one or more BWPs scheduled within the cycle length T is determined after being enlarged or shortened with reference to the frequency range of one of the BWPs within the period. In this case, the target UE can be informed of the part of the referenced BWP information of transmission configuration only, such as the time-frequency position of the CORESET, thereby reducing the data volume of the information of periodic-scheduling configuration and saving control signaling overheads.

Exemplarily, <FIG> is a schematic diagram of another application scenario for adjusting information transmission according to an exemplary embodiment. BWP2 may be determined after adjusting the frequency range based on BWP1. Part of BWP1 may transmit configuration information such as a time-frequency position of the CORESET, which may be used as prior information in BWP2. The base station does not need to instruct the target UE to make re-configuration, thereby saving signaling overheads.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, in the process of the base station periodically scheduling the target UE through different BWPs, periodic scheduling for the target UE may also be cancelled.

<FIG> is a flowchart illustrating another method for adjusting information transmission according to an exemplary embodiment. On the basis of the embodiment shown in <FIG>, after step <NUM>, the method may include the following steps.

In step <NUM>, information of periodic scheduling cancellation is sent to the target UE under a preset trigger condition, and periodic scheduling for the target UE is cancelled.

The above preset trigger condition may be receiving of a periodic scheduling cancellation request from the target UE, or ending of timing of the preset periodic scheduling.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the information of periodic scheduling cancellation may include, in addition to cancellation indication information, information of transmission configuration of subsequently scheduled BWPs after the periodic scheduling is cancelled.

The above subsequent scheduling may be new periodic scheduling with different cycle lengths, or may be aperiodic scheduling.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, if the above subsequent scheduling is aperiodic scheduling, the base station may also specify information of transmission configuration of one of the BWPs, such as BWP1 or BWP2 in <FIG>, in the current scheduling period, as the information of transmission configuration of the subsequently scheduled BWPs, or may instruct the target UE to restore the transmission configuration before the periodic scheduling is carried out, such as the transmission configuration of BWP0, so that the target UE can resume the transmission configuration according to the prior information of transmission configuration, thereby reducing the data volume of information of transmission configuration and the occupied transmission resources, and saving signaling overheads accordingly.

Regarding the timing of canceling the periodic scheduling, upon when a scheduling cancellation request is received, the current periodic scheduling may be stopped immediately, or may be cancelled after the current periodic scheduling is completed.

In summary, by using the method for adjusting information transmission provided by the present disclosure, for UE with a transmission traffic periodically changed, such as an IoT device, the base station may determine and send information of periodic-scheduling configuration to the UE, and schedule BWPs of different bandwidths in a time period T according to the information of periodic-scheduling configuration for transmitting service data with a large change in the data volume of target UE in different periods, thereby reasonably utilizing wireless transmission resources. Meanwhile, since the target UE is enabled to configure information of transmission configuration of different BWPs in different time windows through one piece of information of periodic-scheduling configuration, the base station does not need to send deactivation/activation control information to the target UE for multiple times in one cycle length T to achieve period handover on multiple BWPs, thereby saving control signaling overheads, improving the efficiency of BWP handover, effectively shortening the transmission delay caused by BWP handover, enhancing the efficiency of information transmission, and improving user experience in use of a <NUM> NR network device.

Correspondingly, the present disclosure also provides a method for adjusting information transmission, applied to UE. <FIG> is a flowchart illustrating a method for adjusting information transmission according to an exemplary embodiment. The method may include the following steps.

In step <NUM>, information of periodic-scheduling configuration sent by a base station is received, the information of periodic-scheduling configuration being used for instructing the UE to transmit service data periodically through at least two BWPs.

Corresponding to step <NUM>, details are not repeated here.

In step <NUM>, periodic-transmission configuration is made according to the information of periodic-scheduling configuration.

That is, the target UE may make, according to the information of periodic-scheduling configuration, BWP transmission configuration corresponding to the first time window before the time duration T starts, and then make corresponding BWP transmission configuration in turn when each time window arrives.

As shown in <FIG>, the above transmission configuration process is as follows: when the cycle length T is about to start, the UE searches for its own DCI according to a CORESET time-frequency position of BWP1, uplink and downlink transmissions are performed respectively by using uplink and downlink transmission resources allocated by the base station according to scheduling control information included in the DCI, and after the first time window t1 ends, the transmission configuration of BWP2 is performed in the same manner, and so on. During the handover between BWP1 and BWP2, the base station does not need to re-send control signaling for deactivating BWP1 and activating BWP2, which saves signaling overheads.

In step <NUM>, information is transmitted by using different BWP time-frequency resources scheduled periodically by the base station.

<FIG> is a flowchart illustrating another method for adjusting information transmission according to an exemplary embodiment. On the basis of the embodiment shown in <FIG>, before step <NUM>, the method may include the following steps.

In step <NUM>, a periodic scheduling request for requesting periodic scheduling of resources is sent to the base station, the periodic scheduling request at least including: an identity of the UE and information of the periodic scheduling request.

Step <NUM> corresponds to step <NUM> and is applicable to a case where the UE initiatively requests the base station to perform periodic scheduling. The information of the periodic scheduling request may be expressed in the above three forms, which will not be repeated here.

<FIG> is a flowchart illustrating another method for adjusting information transmission according to an exemplary embodiment. On the basis of the embodiment shown in <FIG>, the method may include the following steps.

In step <NUM>, information of periodic scheduling cancellation sent by the base station is received, and periodic information transmission is cancelled.

The step corresponds to step <NUM>. The target UE may immediately cancel the periodic transmission according to the above information of periodic scheduling cancellation, or stop transmitting the service data periodically after completing the current scheduling period. The transmission configuration and the information transmission may be performed according to the information of subsequent BWP configuration instructed by the base station.

It can be seen that by adopting the method for adjusting information transmission provided by the present disclosure, the target UE may implement multiple handovers between different BWPs within a scheduling cycle length T according to the information of periodic-scheduling configuration issued by the base station once, which can effectively improve the BWP handover efficiency of the UE and save the overheads of signaling for indicating BWP handover, while avoiding waste of resources caused by the target UE using inappropriate bandwidth resources or avoiding excessively long delays in transmission of delay-sensitive services, and effectively improving user experience in use of the UE in <NUM> NR networks.
