Abstract

Present application provides a method and a device in a communication node for wireless communications. A communication node, accompanying a first message, starts a first timer; transmits the first message, the first message comprises an RRC signaling; transmits a first field; monitors a second message, the second message comprises an RRC signaling, the second message is used to respond to the first message; as a response to any condition in a first condition set being satisfied, updates from RRC_INACTIVE state to a first RRC state; if the second message is received, stops the first timer; the first field is used to assist in determining a transmission of the second message; two conditions in the first condition set are respectively the first timer being expired and the second message being received; the present application increases the success probability of SDT transmission and reduces the power consumption of the first node.

Claims (46)

1 . A first node for wireless communications, comprising:

a first receiver, monitoring a second message, the second message comprising an RRC signaling, the second message being used to respond to the first message; as a response to any condition in a first condition set being satisfied, entering into a first RRC state from RRC_INACTIVE state;

wherein if the second message is received, and as a response to the second message being received, stop the first timer; the first field is used to assist in determining a transmission of the second message; two conditions in the first condition set are respectively the first timer being expired and the second message being received;

the first RRC state is a candidate state in a first candidate state set, and the first candidate state set comprises RRC_IDLE state.

2 . The first node according to claim 1 , wherein the behavior of “as a response to any condition in a first condition set being satisfied, entering into a first RRC state from RRC_INACTIVE state” comprises: as a response to an expiration of the first timer, entering into the first RRC state from RRC_INACTIVE state; the second message not being received; the first RRC state being RRC_IDLE state.

3 . The first node according to claim 1 , wherein the behavior of “as a response to any condition in a first condition set being satisfied, entering into a first RRC state from RRC_INACTIVE state” comprises: as a response to the second message being received, entering into a first RRC state from RRC_INACTIVE state; the second message being received; the first RRC state being RRC_INACTIVE state, or, the first RRC state being RRC_IDLE state.

4 . The first node according to claim 1 , wherein the first message comprises an RRCResumeRequest message;

the second message comprises an RRCRelease message.

5 . The first node according to claim 1 , wherein the first message comprises an RRC signaling and the first message comprises a Buffer Status Report (BSR).

6 . The first node according to claim 1 , wherein the first message is all or part in Msg3; or, the first message is all or part in MSGA.

7 . The first node according to claim 1 , wherein accompanying a first message, not start the T319.

8 . The first node according to claim 1 , wherein the first field indicates that data other than the first-type Data Radio Bearer (DRB) arrives; the first field is a field in an RRC message.

9 . The first node according to claim 1 , wherein the first message comprises the first field.

10 . The first node according to claim 1 , wherein the first field is not a field in the first message.

11 . The first node according to claim 1 , wherein the first field indicates two first-type states, the first field being set is used to indicate one first-type state, and the first field not being set is used to indicate another first-type state; the first-type state comprises: data other than the first-type DRB arrives; the another first-type state comprises: no data other than the first-type DRB arrives.

12 . The first node according to claim 1 , wherein the phrase that the first field is used to assist in determining a transmission of the second message comprises: the first field is used to assist in determining a time for transmitting the second message.

13 . The first node according to claim 1 , comprising:

the first transmitter, as a response to the behavior of transmitting a first field, an expiration value of the first timer being increased by a first offset;

wherein the first offset comprises at least one slot.

14 . The first node according to claim 1 , wherein the first field indicates whether a size of a target data block reaches a first size threshold; the target data block comprises at least one of data pending to be transmitted on uplink, or a MAC subheader or a MAC CE.

15 . The first node according to claim 1 , comprising:

the first receiver, receiving a first signaling, the first signaling indicating a first resource block;

wherein the first message comprises the first field, and the first field is a first BSR; the first resource block cannot accommodate the first BSR and the first data block at the same time; the first data block comprises an SDU; the first resource block is used to carry the first message.

16 . The first node according to claim 1 , comprising:

the first receiver, determining that a fourth message is not correctly received, the fourth message being triggered by the first message; receiving a second signaling, the second signaling indicates a second resource block; and

the first transmitter, when a second condition set is satisfied, updating the first field; the behavior of updating the first field being used to determine a third message, transmitting the third message on the second resource block;

wherein the behavior of determining that the fourth message is not correctly received triggers the second signaling; the second condition set comprises that there exists a second data block, and the second data block arrives after the first message is assembled.

17 . The first node according to claim 6 , comprising:

the first transmitter, as a response to the behavior of updating the first field, canceling a second BSR;

wherein the second BSR is triggered between the first message and the third message.

18 . A second node for wireless communications, comprising:

a second receiver, receiving a first message, the first message comprising an RRC signaling. receiving a first field; and

a second transmitter, transmitting a second message, the second message comprising an RRC signaling, the second message being used to respond to the first message;

wherein accompanying the first message, a first timer is started; as a response to any condition in a first condition set being satisfied, a transmitter of the first message enters into a first RRC state from RRC_INACTIVE state; if the second message is received, as a response to the second message being received, the first timer is stopped; the first field is used to assist in determining a transmission of the second message;

two conditions in the first condition set are respectively the first timer being expired and the second message being received; the first RRC state is a candidate state in a first candidate state set, and the first candidate state set comprises RRC_IDLE state.
