Background technology
In order to effectively utilize the mobile communications network resource, 3GPP (3rd Generation PartnershipProject, third generation partner program) MBMS (the MultimediaBroadcast Multicast Service of mobile communications network has been proposed, multimedia broadcast-multicast service), thereby in mobile communications network, provide a data source to send the point-to-multipoint service of data to a plurality of users, the realization Internet resources are shared, improve utilization rate of network resource, the sharing of the interface resource of especially eating dishes without rice or wine.
The MBMS that 3GPP proposes can not only realize the classes of messages multicast and the broadcasting of plain text low rate, and can also realize the multicast and the broadcasting of high-speed multimedia business.In order further to improve the transmission performance of MBMS, at the LTE of 3GPP (LongTerm Evolution, Long Term Evolution) in the system, the various situations of supporting the MBMS business are defined, for example, transmission method comprises mixed carrier transmission and special carrier transmission, in addition, the LTE system also supports Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD) and two kinds of dual-modes of time division duplex, and two kinds of dual-modes use different frame structures.For tdd systems, each radio frames is made of the long subframe of 10 1ms, and each subframe is numbered from 0~9 in order.As shown in table 1, be the transformat of the various configurations that system supported.

Embodiment
Below in conjunction with drawings and Examples, the specific embodiment of the present invention is described in further detail:
The feedback method of MBMS transmission disclosed by the invention may further comprise the steps: terminal receives the MBMS business that the base station sends, and described MBMS business sends with the OFDM modulation system, and the subcarrier spacing of described OFDM modulation is T; The subcarrier spacing that described terminal is selected to be equal to or greater than T sends to described base station with feedback information.
As shown in Figure 1, for realizing the flow chart of the feedback method that MBMS of the present invention transmits.
S101, receiving MBMS service by terminal.
The principal character of MBMS business is that data volume is big, real-time, wide coverage etc.As embodiments of the invention, describe the present invention for example in detail with the MBMS business in the LTE system below.In the LTE system, stipulated two kinds of different subcarrier spacings: 15kHz and 7.5kHz, wherein 7.5kHz only is used for MBMS special carrier transmission use.Under the different condition, each time domain is long to be that parameter in the Physical Resource Block of 180kHz is as shown in table 2 below for 1ms, frequency domain are wide.
Table 2 configuration parameter
In the LTE system, always be to use expansion CP (Extended CyclePrefix, Cyclic Prefix) when carrying out the MBMS transmission, and transmission bandwidth takes whole frequency band.The LTE system supports two kinds of MBMS transmission methods: mixed carrier transmission and special carrier transmission.During the mixed carrier transmission, have MBMS and non-MBMS/unicast business simultaneously on a certain time-frequency band, this moment, subcarrier spacing was 15kHz; During the special carrier transmission, then only have the MBMS business on a certain time-frequency band, this moment, subcarrier spacing was 7.5kHz.For special carrier MBMS transmission, the mapping structure of its reference symbol on Physical Resource Block as shown in Figure 2, R wherein
4When transmitting for MBMS, receiving terminal carries out the employed reference symbol of channel estimating, i.e. frequency pilot sign.
As embodiments of the invention, described terminal receives the downlink transfer resource that the base station sends, and sends the uplink transmission resource of information to described base station greater than described terminal.More specifically, the uplink and downlink communication between terminal and the base station is a TDD mode, and up-downgoing service subframe ratio is less than 1.Exist a large amount of downlink resource in the system this moment, also exists the configuring condition of a spot of ascending resource.Therefore, utilize a spot of ascending resource can realize having the MBMS transmission mechanism of up feedback function.
As embodiments of the invention, the base station sends the MBMS business to terminal on special carrier, and all downlink business subframes of special carrier are used for the MBMS transmission.
Correspondingly, terminal sends feedback information to described base station on special carrier, because the uplink service subframe of special carrier is less, so all the uplink service subframes in the special carrier are used for transmitting feedback information.
In the above-described embodiments, this system can work independently and not need other carrier waves to cooperate, promptly in the special carrier frequency range, comprise: synchronizing channel, MBMS control channel, MBMS paging channel, Random Access Channel etc., each channel can adopt the mode of the definition of existing standard to carry out work, but also otherwise designed.
As embodiments of the invention, the up feedback of terminal can be used and be less than or equal to descending MBMS and transmit employed bandwidth resources.When up feedback bandwidth during less than descending MBMS transmission bandwidth, the remaining frequencies resource can be used by other system in the uplink service subframe.Preferably, terminal is the feedack size as required, selects suitable uplink bandwidth resource to transmit transmission.
As shown in table 1, the LTE system supports the MBMS transmission under the various modes at present.As embodiments of the invention, can adopt uplink and downlink communication is TDD mode, and the up-downgoing service subframe is configured to the transformat of 1: 9 pattern, i.e. the transformat of configuration 5 in the table 1.
S102, terminal is selected suitable subcarrier spacing, sends feedback information.
After terminal receives the MBMS business, be chosen in feedback information in the suitable uplink bandwidth resource that system is required and send to the base station.
In the above-described embodiments, when the subcarrier spacing of downlink transfer was 7.5kHz, its anti-time domain interference capability was stronger, but relatively poor to the resolution capability of multipath, and promptly anti-frequency domain interference ability is relatively poor.Because during special carrier MBMS transmission, time delay between its multipath will compare when general data is professional to be transmitted big, terminal is easier to tell the signal on each paths, therefore use the subcarrier spacing of 7.5kHz can be under the prerequisite that does not influence its frequency domain interference free performance, better the antagonism time domain is disturbed, and improves the overall performance of system.
Yet for up feedback signal, same base station is received from time delay between the multipath signal of same terminal less, therefore needs to use bigger subcarrier spacing, to guarantee the frequency domain interference free performance of system.
As embodiments of the invention, the subcarrier spacing that terminal is selected to be equal to or greater than 7.5kHz sends to described base station with feedback information, and for example, the subcarrier spacing of 15kHz or several times are in the subcarrier spacing of 7.5kHz.
