Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a method for processing discontinuous reception parameters, a storage medium and a processor. The method includes: user equipment receiving discontinuous reception parameters and parameter values, the discontinuous reception parameters corresponding to different communication parameters being different, or the parameter values of the discontinuous reception parameters corresponding to different communication parameters being different; and the user equipment performing configuration on the basis of the discontinuous reception parameters and the parameter values. The present disclosure solves the technical problems in the related art of being unable to achieve the purpose of power saving as user equipment has a large power consumption when transmitting data (such as a direct communication request (DCR) message or a discovery message) on a sidelink.

Claims (32)

1 . A method for processing a discontinuous reception parameter, comprising:

receiving, by a user equipment, a discontinuous reception parameter and a parameter value, wherein discontinuous reception parameters corresponding to different communication parameters are different, or values of discontinuous reception parameters corresponding to different communication parameters are different;

performing, by the user equipment, a configuration based on the discontinuous reception parameter and the parameter value;

wherein the communication parameters comprise a transmission mode of a sidelink and a service type; and the service type corresponds to a service priority and a PC5 5G Quality of Service Identifier;

the method further comprising:

transmitting, by the user equipment, data through the sidelink according to the configuration.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the discontinuous reception parameter comprises at least one of: a discontinuous reception period, a time offset, a length of discontinuous reception on-duration, a length of a discontinuous reception activity timer, and a time length of a retransmission timer.

3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the communication parameters comprise: the transmission mode of the sidelink;

performing, by the user equipment, the configuration based on the discontinuous reception parameter and the parameter value, comprises:

determining, by the user equipment, to use a first discontinuous reception parameter in a case that the transmission mode is a first mode; and

determining, by the user equipment, to use a second discontinuous reception parameter in a case that the transmission mode is a second mode;

wherein parameters contained in first discontinuous reception parameters are at least partially different from parameters contained in second discontinuous reception parameters.

4 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the communication parameters comprise: the service type;

performing, by the user equipment, the configuration based on the discontinuous reception parameter and the parameter value, comprises:

determining, by the user equipment, to use a first discontinuous reception parameter in a case that the service type is a first type; and

determining, by the user equipment, to use a second discontinuous reception parameter in a case that the service type is a second type;

wherein values of parameters contained in first discontinuous reception parameters are at least partially different from values of parameters contained in second discontinuous reception parameters.

5 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the communication parameters further comprise: an interface type;

performing, by the user equipment, the configuration based on the discontinuous reception parameter and the parameter value, comprises:

determining, by the user equipment, to use a first discontinuous reception parameter in a case that the interface type is a first type; and

determining, by the user equipment, to use a second discontinuous reception parameter in a case that the interface type is a second type;

wherein parameters contained in first discontinuous reception parameters are at least partially different from parameters contained in second discontinuous reception parameters, or values of parameters contained in first discontinuous reception parameters are at least partially different or all different from values of parameters contained in second discontinuous reception parameters.

6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the interface type comprises a Uu interface and a PC5 interface.

7 . The method of claim 6 , further comprising one of following:

reporting, by the user equipment, a first parameter, wherein the first parameter is used for determining a value of a discontinuous reception parameter corresponding to the PC5 interface.

8 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the first parameter comprises at least one piece of following information of the user equipment: source address information, a PC5 5G Quality of Service Identifier.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the discontinuous reception parameter is received through at least one of following signaling: a Radio Resource Control signaling, a System Information Block message, and a pre-configuration signaling.

10 . A user equipment, comprising a processor and a transceiver, wherein

the transceiver is configured to receive a discontinuous reception parameter and a parameter value, wherein discontinuous reception parameters corresponding to different communication parameters are different, or values of discontinuous reception parameters corresponding to different communication parameters are different;

the processor is configured to perform a configuration based on the discontinuous reception parameter and the parameter value;

wherein the communication parameters comprise a transmission mode of a sidelink and a service type; and the service type corresponds to a service priority and a PC5 5G Quality of Service Identifier;

the transceiver is further configured to transmit data through the sidelink according to the configuration.
