Description

Information processing method and device, communication equipment and storage medium

Technical Field

本公开涉及无线通信技术领域但不限于无线通信技术领域，尤其涉及一种信息处理方法及装置、通信设备及存储介质。The present disclosure relates to the field of wireless communication technology but is not limited to the field of wireless communication technology, and in particular to an information processing method and apparatus, a communication device and a storage medium.

Background Art

在相关技术中，低功耗高精度(low power high accuracy，LPHA)定位，主要考虑的场景是工业物联网的场景；该LPHA定位主要是用来跟踪(User Equipment，UE)的位置，且需降低UE的功耗以满足LPHA的需求。In the related technologies, low power high accuracy (LPHA) positioning mainly considers the scenario of industrial Internet of Things; the LPHA positioning is mainly used to track the position of (User Equipment, UE), and the power consumption of UE needs to be reduced to meet the requirements of LPHA.

对于LPHA定位，核心网(Core Network，CN)会给UE配置特定的非连续接收(Discontinuous Reception，DRX)参数；且基站也会给UE配置特定的DRX参数。然而，目前，UE的DRX参数与UE的定位参考信号(Position Reference Signal，PRS)参数是没有关系的；可能出现在非连续接收关闭(DRX off)阶段发送PRS，从而导致UE额外的功耗。For LPHA positioning, the core network (CN) will configure specific discontinuous reception (DRX) parameters for the UE; and the base station will also configure specific DRX parameters for the UE. However, currently, the UE's DRX parameters are not related to the UE's positioning reference signal (PRS) parameters; it may appear that PRS is sent during the discontinuous reception off (DRX off) phase, resulting in additional power consumption of the UE.

为了更好地理解本公开任一个实施例所描述的技术方案，首先，对相关技术中UE定位进行部分说明：In order to better understand the technical solution described in any embodiment of the present disclosure, first, UE positioning in the related art is partially explained:

在一些用场景中，核心网会给UE配置特定的DRX参数；例如，UE在初始化附着网络时或者进行跟踪区更新时，核心网会给UE配置DRX参数。并且，基站也会给UE配置特定的DRX参数；例如，基站通过无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control，RRC)消息为UE配置DRX参数。然而目前，当对UE进行定位时，例如LPHA定位，网络会给UE配置PRS参数，但是UE的DRX参数与UE的PRS参数是没有关系的；因此可能会出现以下的情形：在非连续接收关闭(DRX off)阶段，UE需要测量PRS，从而导致UE额外的功耗。所以提出PRS与DRX对齐，即：在非连续接收开启(DRX on)阶段，UE测量PRS；在DRX off阶段，UE不需要测量PRS，也即在DRX off阶段不发送PRS。如此本公开实施例提供一种信息处理方法，可以通过LMF获取更新PRS参数，以使得PRS参数与DRX参数对齐(或匹配)，从而在DRX off阶段不需要发送PRS参数，降低了因在DRX off阶段需要发送PRS所导致UE的额外功耗。这里，DRX参数可以为传统的DRX参数或者eDRX参数。In some use scenarios, the core network will configure specific DRX parameters for the UE; for example, when the UE initializes the network attachment or performs tracking area update, the core network will configure the DRX parameters for the UE. In addition, the base station will also configure specific DRX parameters for the UE; for example, the base station configures the DRX parameters for the UE through the Radio Resource Control (RRC) message. However, at present, when the UE is positioned, such as LPHA positioning, the network will configure the PRS parameters for the UE, but the DRX parameters of the UE are not related to the PRS parameters of the UE; therefore, the following situation may occur: in the discontinuous reception off (DRX off) phase, the UE needs to measure the PRS, resulting in additional power consumption of the UE. Therefore, it is proposed to align PRS with DRX, that is, in the discontinuous reception on (DRX on) phase, the UE measures the PRS; in the DRX off phase, the UE does not need to measure the PRS, that is, the PRS is not sent in the DRX off phase. Thus, the disclosed embodiment provides an information processing method, which can obtain and update PRS parameters through LMF so that the PRS parameters are aligned (or matched) with the DRX parameters, so that the PRS parameters do not need to be sent in the DRX off phase, thereby reducing the additional power consumption of the UE caused by the need to send PRS in the DRX off phase. Here, the DRX parameters can be traditional DRX parameters or eDRX parameters.

如图2所示，本公开实施例提供一种信息处理方法，由LMF执行，包括：As shown in FIG2 , the embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method, which is executed by LMF, including:

本公开实施例中涉及的UE与核心网的网元(例如LMF和/或AMF)之间的交互，需经过接入网的网元(例如基站)进行转发。示例性的，UE向LMF发送信息，可以是UE通过基站向LMF发送信息；例如UE通过基站向LMF发送LTE定位协议(LTE Positioning Protocol，LPP)消息；该UE通过基站向LMF发送信息，包括：UE将信息发送给基站，基站将信息转发给LMF。这里的转发可以为透明转发。同样，UE接收LMF发送的信息，可以是：UE通过基站接收LMF发送的信息；例如，UE通过基站接收LMF发送的LPP消息。The interaction between the UE and the network elements of the core network (such as LMF and/or AMF) involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure needs to be forwarded through the network elements of the access network (such as base stations). Exemplarily, the UE sending information to the LMF may be that the UE sends information to the LMF through the base station; for example, the UE sends an LTE Positioning Protocol (LPP) message to the LMF through the base station; the UE sends information to the LMF through the base station, including: the UE sends the information to the base station, and the base station forwards the information to the LMF. The forwarding here can be transparent forwarding. Similarly, the UE receives information sent by the LMF, which may be: the UE receives information sent by the LMF through the base station; for example, the UE receives an LPP message sent by the LMF through the base station.

在又一个实施例中，PRS参数与UE的DRX匹配或者对齐，可以是：在DRX On阶段，发送PRS，和/或，在DRX off阶段，不发送PRS。如此可以降低因在DRX off发送PRS所带来的额外的功耗。In another embodiment, the PRS parameter is matched or aligned with the DRX of the UE, which may be: in the DRX On phase, the PRS is sent, and/or, in the DRX Off phase, the PRS is not sent. This can reduce the additional power consumption caused by sending the PRS in the DRX Off phase.

在一个实施例中，第一请求中包括指示信息，指示信息用于指示PRS参数与DRX参数匹配。In one embodiment, the first request includes indication information, where the indication information is used to indicate that the PRS parameter matches the DRX parameter.

如此，在本公开实施例，可以通过在第一请求中携带指示信息，以请求PRS参数DRX参数匹配，或者以请求PRS周期与DRX周期匹配。Thus, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, indication information may be carried in the first request to request the PRS parameter to match the DRX parameter, or to request the PRS cycle to match the DRX cycle.

在一个实施例中，第一请求用于请求更新的PRS参数，更新的PRS参数与DRX参数匹配。In one embodiment, the first request is for requesting updated PRS parameters, and the updated PRS parameters match the DRX parameters.

在本公开所涉及的任意实施例中，DRX参数均可以是传统的DRX参数，也可以是扩展的非连续接(eDRX)参数。在本公开所涉及的任意实施例中，DRX周期可以是传统的DRX周期，也可以是扩展的DRX(eDRX)周期。In any embodiment of the present disclosure, the DRX parameters may be conventional DRX parameters or extended discontinuous connection (eDRX) parameters. In any embodiment of the present disclosure, the DRX cycle may be conventional DRX cycle or extended DRX (eDRX) cycle.

在另一个实施例中，DRX参数可以是长DRX周期相关的DRX参数或者可以是短DRX周期相关的DRX参数。In another embodiment, the DRX parameter may be a DRX parameter related to a long DRX cycle or may be a DRX parameter related to a short DRX cycle.

在一个实施例中，DRX参数包括但不限于以下至少之一：DRX周期、非连续接收开启(DRX on)、非连续接收关闭(DRX off)、非连续接收开启定时器(DRX on duration timer)、非连续接收非激活态定时器(DRX inactivity timer)、非连续接收下行重传定时器(DRX RetransmissionTimerDL)、非连续接收上行重传定时器(DRX RetransmissionTimerUL)、非连续接收长周期起始偏移量(DRX LongCycleStartOffset)以及非连续接收短周期定时器(DRX ShortCycleTimer)等。In one embodiment, the DRX parameters include but are not limited to at least one of the following: DRX cycle, discontinuous reception on (DRX on), discontinuous reception off (DRX off), discontinuous reception on timer (DRX on duration timer), discontinuous reception inactivity timer (DRX inactivity timer), discontinuous reception downlink retransmission timer (DRX RetransmissionTimerDL), discontinuous reception uplink retransmission timer (DRX RetransmissionTimerUL), discontinuous reception long cycle start offset (DRX LongCycleStartOffset) and discontinuous reception short cycle timer (DRX ShortCycleTimer), etc.

在一个实施例中，PRS参数包括但不限于以下之一：PRS周期、PRS的发送时刻、PRS的时频域资源、PRS的资源标识、PRS序列标识以及PRS带宽等。In one embodiment, the PRS parameters include but are not limited to one of the following: a PRS period, a PRS transmission time, a PRS time-frequency domain resource, a PRS resource identifier, a PRS sequence identifier, and a PRS bandwidth.

在一个实施例中，PRS参数，即PRS配置。In one embodiment, the PRS parameters, ie, the PRS configuration.

在一个实施例中，DRX周期可以是DRX周期或者扩展的DRX(eDRX)周期。在本公开实施例中，DRX周期可以是传统的DRX周期，也可以是扩展的DRX周期。In one embodiment, the DRX cycle may be a DRX cycle or an extended DRX (eDRX) cycle. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the DRX cycle may be a traditional DRX cycle or an extended DRX cycle.

在另一个实施例中，DRX周期可以是长DRX周期或者短DRX周期。In another embodiment, the DRX cycle may be a long DRX cycle or a short DRX cycle.

PRS周期与寻呼周期相同；The PRS cycle is the same as the paging cycle;

PRS周期与DRX周期相同；The PRS cycle is the same as the DRX cycle;

DRX周期是PRS周期的子集； The DRX cycle is a subset of the PRS cycle;

PRS的发送时刻处于DRX on；The PRS is sent in DRX on.

PRS的发送时刻处于非连续接收开启定时器(DRX on duration timer)和/或非连续接收非激活态定时器(DRX inactivity timer)运行期间。The PRS is sent during the operation of the discontinuous reception on timer (DRX on duration timer) and/or the discontinuous reception inactivity timer (DRX inactivity timer).

示例性的，DRX周期可以用于确定UE的寻呼周期。若PRS周期与寻呼周期相同，说明PRS的发送是在UE的寻呼周期内，即PRS周期与DRX周期是匹配的。或者，若寻呼周期是PRS周期的子集，说明PRS周期包括一个或多个寻呼周期；此时在寻呼周期内会发送PRS，即PRS周期与DRX周期是匹配的。如此，在寻呼周期内发送PRS，可以在减少在不是寻呼时间内发送PRS的情况出现，即减少在不是寻呼时间内发送PRS所带来的额外功耗。Exemplarily, the DRX cycle can be used to determine the paging cycle of the UE. If the PRS cycle is the same as the paging cycle, it means that the PRS is sent within the paging cycle of the UE, that is, the PRS cycle matches the DRX cycle. Alternatively, if the paging cycle is a subset of the PRS cycle, it means that the PRS cycle includes one or more paging cycles; at this time, PRS will be sent within the paging cycle, that is, the PRS cycle matches the DRX cycle. In this way, sending PRS within the paging cycle can reduce the occurrence of sending PRS during non-paging time, that is, reduce the additional power consumption caused by sending PRS during non-paging time.

示例性的，PRS周期与DRX周期相同，至少包括：PRS的发送时刻的起始时刻与DRX on的起始时刻是相同，和/或，PRS的发送的持续时间与DRX on的持续时间相同。如此，可以DRX on的起始时刻就可以测量PRS(即发送PRS)，和/或，在DRX on的持续时间发送PRS，从而可以在DRX off阶段发送PRS所带来的功耗。当然，在其他的实施例中，PRS周期也可以是与DRX周期完全相同的，如此在DRX on阶段的时候可以发送PRS，在一定程度上减少UE的功耗。Exemplarily, the PRS cycle is the same as the DRX cycle, at least including: the starting time of the PRS transmission moment is the same as the starting time of DRX on, and/or, the duration of the PRS transmission is the same as the duration of DRX on. In this way, PRS can be measured (i.e., PRS is transmitted) at the starting time of DRX on, and/or PRS is transmitted during the duration of DRX on, so that the power consumption caused by transmitting PRS in the DRX off phase can be reduced. Of course, in other embodiments, the PRS cycle can also be exactly the same as the DRX cycle, so that PRS can be transmitted during the DRX on phase, reducing the power consumption of UE to a certain extent.

示例性的，DRX周期是PRS周期的子集。例如PRS的周期是100ms，而DRX周期是50ms；该DRX周期是PRS周期的子集，如此在部分DRX周期是没有PRS周期的，但在PRS周期是存在DRX周期的。如此，可以在DRX周期的DRX on阶段发送PRS，从而可以减少UE的功耗。Exemplarily, the DRX cycle is a subset of the PRS cycle. For example, the PRS cycle is 100 ms, and the DRX cycle is 50 ms; the DRX cycle is a subset of the PRS cycle, so that there is no PRS cycle in some DRX cycles, but there is a DRX cycle in the PRS cycle. In this way, the PRS can be sent in the DRX on phase of the DRX cycle, thereby reducing the power consumption of the UE.

示例性的，DRX周期包括DRX on周期和/或DRX off周期。该DRX on是指DRX周期中DRX on阶段；DRX on周期是PRS周期的子集，说明DRX on阶段发送PRS。如此，本实施例可以在DRX on阶段发送PRS，可以减低在DRX on阶段以外的其它时刻发送PRS所带来的功耗。Exemplarily, the DRX cycle includes a DRX on cycle and/or a DRX off cycle. The DRX on refers to the DRX on phase in the DRX cycle; the DRX on cycle is a subset of the PRS cycle, indicating that the PRS is sent in the DRX on phase. In this way, the present embodiment can send the PRS in the DRX on phase, which can reduce the power consumption caused by sending the PRS at other times other than the DRX on phase.

示例性的，PRS的发送时刻处于DRX On，或者PRS的发送时刻处于DRX on duration timer的运行期间，均可以是指PRS的发送在UE的唤醒期间。启动或重启一个DRX inactivity timer后，UE将一直处于激活态直到该定时器超时；如此PRS的发送时刻处于DRX inactivity timer的运行期间，也是PRS的发送在UE的唤醒期间。如此，在本实施例中可以在UE的DRX On阶段发送PRS，从而可以降低在DRX off阶段以外的其它时刻发送PRS所带来的功耗。Exemplarily, the transmission time of PRS is during the operation of DRX on duration timer, or the transmission time of PRS is during the operation of DRX on duration timer, which can refer to the transmission of PRS during the wake-up period of UE. After starting or restarting a DRX inactivity timer, the UE will remain in the active state until the timer times out; in this way, the transmission time of PRS is during the operation of DRX inactivity timer, which is also the transmission of PRS during the wake-up period of UE. In this way, in this embodiment, PRS can be sent in the DRX on phase of UE, so as to reduce the power consumption caused by sending PRS at other times other than the DRX off phase.

示例性的，PRS周期与UE的DRX周期匹配，还包括PRS的发送时刻尽可能的处于DRX on，或者包括PRS的发送时刻尽可能处于DRX on duration timer运行期间，或者包括PRS的发送时刻尽可能处于DRX inactivity timer运行期间，或者包括PRS的发送时刻尽可能处于DRX on duration timer和DRX inactivity timer运行期间。Exemplarily, the PRS cycle matches the DRX cycle of the UE, and also includes that the sending moment of the PRS is in DRX on as much as possible, or includes that the sending moment of the PRS is in the running period of the DRX on duration timer as much as possible, or includes that the sending moment of the PRS is in the running period of the DRX inactivity timer as much as possible, or includes that the sending moment of the PRS is in the running period of the DRX on duration timer and the DRX inactivity timer as much as possible.

本公开实施例提供一种信息处理方法，由LMF执行，包括：接收基站发送的PRS参数。An embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method, which is executed by LMF, and includes: receiving PRS parameters sent by a base station.

在一个实施例中，PRS参数是基于DRX参数确定的，或者基站确定PRS参数时会考虑UE的DRX参数。示例性的，LMF接收基站发送的PRS参数，该PRS参数是基于DRX参数确定的；如此可以通过更新PRS参数，以匹配DRX参数。 In one embodiment, the PRS parameter is determined based on the DRX parameter, or the base station considers the DRX parameter of the UE when determining the PRS parameter. Exemplarily, the LMF receives the PRS parameter sent by the base station, and the PRS parameter is determined based on the DRX parameter; thus, the PRS parameter can be updated to match the DRX parameter.

在本公开实施例中，LMF向基站发送第一请求，其中，第一请求，用于请求PRS参数；PRS参数与UE的DRX参数匹配。如此可以有利于LMF请求到PRS参数、使得请求到的PRS参数与UE的DRX匹配，即可以使得UE的PRS参数与DRX参数对齐，例如在DRX周期中DRX off阶段不发送PRS，和/或在DRX周期中DRX on阶段发送PRS，从而能够降低相关技术中UE在DRX off阶段发送PRS所带来的额外的功耗，能够降低UE的功耗及节省UE的电量等。In the disclosed embodiment, the LMF sends a first request to the base station, wherein the first request is used to request a PRS parameter; the PRS parameter matches the DRX parameter of the UE. This can help the LMF request the PRS parameter and match the requested PRS parameter with the DRX of the UE, that is, the PRS parameter of the UE can be aligned with the DRX parameter, for example, not sending PRS in the DRX off phase of the DRX cycle, and/or sending PRS in the DRX on phase of the DRX cycle, thereby reducing the additional power consumption caused by the UE sending PRS in the DRX off phase in the related art, reducing the power consumption of the UE and saving the power of the UE.

需要说明的是，本领域内技术人员可以理解，本公开实施例提供的方法，可以被单独执行，也可以与本公开实施例中一些方法或相关技术中的一些方法一起被执行。It should be noted that those skilled in the art can understand that the method provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be executed alone or together with some methods in the embodiments of the present disclosure or some methods in related technologies.

如图3所示，本公开实施例提供一种信息处理方法，由LMF执行，包括：As shown in FIG3 , the present disclosure provides an information processing method, which is executed by LMF and includes:

步骤S31：向基站发送第一请求；其中，第一请求包括DRX参数，第一请求用于请求PRS参数；PRS参数与UE的DRX参数匹配。Step S31: Send a first request to a base station; wherein the first request includes a DRX parameter, and the first request is used to request a PRS parameter; and the PRS parameter matches the DRX parameter of the UE.

在本公开的一些实施例中，第一请求可以为上述实施例第一请求。In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first request may be the first request of the above embodiment.

在一个实施例中，DRX参数包括以下至少之一：第一DRX参数、第二DRX参数以及寻呼时机。In one embodiment, the DRX parameter includes at least one of the following: a first DRX parameter, a second DRX parameter, and a paging occasion.

在一个实施例中，第一DRX参数可以是核心网为UE配置的核心网(CN)DRX参数。示例性的，第一DRX参数包括：CN DRX周期。In one embodiment, the first DRX parameter may be a core network (CN) DRX parameter configured by the core network for the UE. Exemplarily, the first DRX parameter includes: a CN DRX cycle.

在一个实施例中，第二DRX参数可以是基站为UE配置的基站DRX参数。示例性的，第二DRX参数包括：gNB DRX周期。In one embodiment, the second DRX parameter may be a base station DRX parameter configured by the base station for the UE. Exemplarily, the second DRX parameter includes: a gNB DRX cycle.

示例性的，LMF向基站发送第一请求，第一请求包括DRX参数，DRX参数包括第一DRX参数、第二DRX参数以及寻呼时机的其中至少之一；第一请求还用于请求PRS参数，该PRS参数与UE的DRX参数匹配。如此，本实施例可以根据UE的DRX参数，请求与DRX参数匹配的PRS参数。Exemplarily, the LMF sends a first request to the base station, the first request includes a DRX parameter, the DRX parameter includes at least one of a first DRX parameter, a second DRX parameter, and a paging occasion; the first request is also used to request a PRS parameter, and the PRS parameter matches the DRX parameter of the UE. In this way, this embodiment can request a PRS parameter that matches the DRX parameter according to the DRX parameter of the UE.

如此，在本公开实施例中，LMF可以请求将携带的UE的DRX参数的第一请求发送给基站，用于请求与UE的DRX参数匹配的PRS参数，即LMF用于请求PRS参数时会提供UE的DRX参数，以使得获取到PRS参数与DRX参数对齐(或匹配)；从而能够降低PRS参数与DRX参数不对齐或者不匹配时、UE在DRX off阶段发送PRS所带来的额外的功耗，能够降低UE的功耗及节省UE的电量等。Thus, in the disclosed embodiment, the LMF may request to send a first request carrying the DRX parameters of the UE to the base station, for requesting PRS parameters that match the DRX parameters of the UE, that is, the LMF will provide the DRX parameters of the UE when requesting the PRS parameters, so that the acquired PRS parameters are aligned (or matched) with the DRX parameters; thereby reducing the extra power consumption caused by the UE sending the PRS in the DRX off phase when the PRS parameters are not aligned or matched with the DRX parameters, and reducing the power consumption of the UE and saving the battery power of the UE.

并且，由于LMF提供的UE的DRX参数可以携带在第一请求中发送，如此无需额外的信令单独发送UE的DRX参数，从而也能减少信令的开销，进一步降低UE的功耗等。Furthermore, since the DRX parameters of the UE provided by the LMF can be carried in the first request, no additional signaling is required to send the DRX parameters of the UE separately, thereby reducing the signaling overhead and further reducing the power consumption of the UE.

需要说明的是，本领域内技术人员可以理解，本公开实施例提供的方法，可以被单独执行，也可以与本公开实施例中一些方法或相关技术中的一些方法一起被执行。 It should be noted that those skilled in the art can understand that the method provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be executed alone or together with some methods in the embodiments of the present disclosure or some methods in related technologies.

在本公开实施例中，LMF向基站发送的PRS配置请求消息中携带第一请求，可以在请求PRS配置(包括PRS参数)阶段就获得与DRX参数匹配的PRS参数；如此无需在请求完PRS配置或者PRS参数后，再发送第一请求来请求更新的PRS参数以匹配DRX参数，从而可以进一步降低信令的开销。In the disclosed embodiment of the present invention, the PRS configuration request message sent by the LMF to the base station carries a first request, and PRS parameters matching the DRX parameters can be obtained at the stage of requesting the PRS configuration (including PRS parameters); in this way, there is no need to send a first request to request updated PRS parameters to match the DRX parameters after requesting the PRS configuration or PRS parameters, thereby further reducing the signaling overhead.

或者，LMF向基站发送的TRP信息消息中携带第一请求发送，如此可以在获取TRP信息时获取PRS参数，一方面可以提前获知PRS参数，以保证PRS参数与DRX参数的对齐；另一方面可以通过一个消息获取TRP信息或者PRS参数，从而可以减少信令的开销。Alternatively, the LMF carries a first request in the TRP information message sent to the base station, so that the PRS parameters can be obtained when obtaining the TRP information. On the one hand, the PRS parameters can be known in advance to ensure the alignment of the PRS parameters with the DRX parameters; on the other hand, the TRP information or PRS parameters can be obtained through one message, thereby reducing the signaling overhead.

如图5所示，本公开实施例提供一种信息处理方法，由LMF执行，包括：As shown in FIG5 , the embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method, which is executed by LMF and includes:
