Background technology
Fig. 1 is the wireless frame structure schematic diagram that relaying place comprises multiple protection interval; as shown in the figure; at LTE (Long Term Evolution; Long Term Evolution) TDD (Time division duplex; time division duplex) in system, the structure of a radio frames is illustrated in figure 1:
The field (half-frame) of two 5ms is had in the radio frames of a 10ms; each field comprises again the subframe (subframe) of 5 1ms; a common subframe can be divided into the normal slot (slot) of two 0.5ms; a special subframe (S) is by 3 special time slot DwPTS (Downlink Pilot Time Slot; descending pilot frequency time slot), GP (guard period; protection interval) and UpPTS (Uplink Pilot Time slot, uplink pilot time slot) composition.
Two 5ms fields in a radio frames can be two identical field structure as shown in Figure 1, namely, 5ms is the frame structure in cycle, the configuration of its up-downgoing pilot time slot can have several as follows: 1DL: 3UL, 2DL: 2UL, 3DL: 1UL, wherein: DL is descending pilot frequency time slot, UL is upper shape pilot time slot.In addition the utilance of Radio Resource and the compatibility of different frame structure is considered, two 5ms fields also can be different frame structures, a field is only had to have the special time slot of 1ms (S), the special time slot of 5ms can flexible configuration be up-downgoing data slot in addition, namely be the frame structure in cycle with 10ms, the configuration of its uplink and downlink timeslot can have several as follows: 6DL: 3UL, 7DL: 2UL, 8DL: 1UL, 3DL: 5UL, and these 7 kinds of uplink/downlink frames structural allocation are as shown in the table.
Wherein, in table, S represents special subframe, D represents descending sub frame, U position sub-frame of uplink.
For the TDD system of LTE, have GP between downlink transfer and uplink in often kind of configuration structure.
At present based in Long Term Evolution (LTE-A) system of the advanced person of Relay (relaying), introduce RN (Relay Node, via node), in each radio half frame structure of the LTE-A tdd frame structure based on Relay, there is following time slot region:
Descending access region (TX): RN adopts this region that the data of eNB (evolution base station) are sent to UE (User Equipment, subscriber equipment);
Multi-upstream access region (RX): UE adopts this region to send the data to RN;
Up Mixed Zone (TX): RN adopts this region to send data to eNB;
Down mixing region (RX): eNB adopts this region to send data to RN.
That is: accessing region has UE to participate in, and Mixed Zone has eNB to participate in.For RN, between the region that it sends data/reception data transaction, need GP (guard period, protection interval).
As seen from Figure 1, eNB has one to protect interval between DwPTS and UpPTS, and for via node, it sends data and to receive between data transaction darker regions as shown in Figure 1, and one also must be had to protect interval.
Fig. 2 sends the schematic diagram protecting interval between data/reception data; as shown in the figure; the protection interval used in existing lte-a system occupies whole frequency band; but; consider the frame structure of eNB; if there is not protection interval at eNB place, the mutual interference between descending/upstream data just can not be avoided.
In sum; the deficiencies in the prior art are: at present based in the lte-a system of Relay after introducing RN; in the frame structure of via node; due between downlink transfer and uplink GP configuring scheme in the protection interval that adopts occupy whole frequency band, thus waste the utilization of band resource.

The present invention in force, in the frequency band that via node reception data use, sends between data and the subframe receiving data at via node and arranges GP.Owing to only sending between data and the subframe receiving data at via node, GP is set; be exactly on partial-band, be only configured with protection interval; therefore the interference at via node place between descending/upstream data can not only be avoided; also because protection interval only takies partial-band, thus decrease the waste of band resource.
Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the specific embodiment of the present invention is described.
After introducing RN in based on the lte-a system of Relay, in the place of sending/receiving data transaction, need the GP adding certain length to avoid the mutual interference between descending/upstream data.The blank of partial-band will be adopted in the embodiment of the present invention as protection interval, thus not only avoid and whole frequency band is all used as protection interval, reduce the waste of resource; Simultaneously also for some can not GP configuring when, the GP of configuration section frequency band can provide technical scheme.
Concrete, in prior art, due to current proposed solution, main consideration is the protection interval of configuration Whole frequency band, specifically as shown in Figure 2.And via node due to need in the different moment to receive from eNB and cover the data of UE; simultaneously also will give to eNB and institute cover UE transmission data; and in sending/receiving data burst transfer process; in order to avoid the interference sending data and receive between data; thus to add protection interval, below the scheme of adding protection interval in the invention process is described.
Fig. 3 is the processing method implementing procedure schematic diagram of intermediate frequency band resources of relay system, as shown in the figure, when processing band resource, can comprise the steps:
Step 301, determine that via node receives the frequency band that uses of data;
Step 302, receive in the frequency band that uses of data at via node, send between data and the subframe receiving data at via node and protection interval is set.
Fig. 4 is the frequency band schematic diagram after processing band resource in relay system, as shown in the figure, up Mixed Zone/descending access region (TX) that the frequency band that via node transmission data use is illustrated for left side oblique line, eNB sends to UE the eNB downlink data sending zone that several used frequency band is top, the right, down mixing region/multi-upstream access region (RX) that the frequency band that in step 301, determined via node reception data use is illustrated with point-like for bottom, the right.The frequency band that visible via node transmission data use and eNB send several used frequency band to UE and keep continuous; send the frequency band that uses of data and via node at via node to receive in the frequency band that data use and be provided with a region illustrated with blank; it is GP region; in the protection separation band of via node blank, eNB and provide the UE of relay services all can not send data.
As seen from Figure 4, at via node place, up Mixed Zone/descending access region is the band region that via node sends data, at the nearby frequency bands area part of two thereafter, one is eNB downlink data sending zone, and it is that eNB sends the band region of data to UE; One is down mixing region/multi-upstream access region, and it is the band region that via node receives data.In concrete enforcement, the data sent to UE and RN due to eNB are separated; The frequency band that eNB sends data to UE, RN is unidirectional, can not receive and dispatch simultaneously; And UE is when sending data to RN and eNB, it is the UE of RN that UE needs to distinguish, or the UE of the UE of eNB, RN only communicates with RN, and the UE of eNB only communicates with eNB.Therefore, through above-mentioned to the process of band resource after, for eNB, its frequency band sending data to UE is separated from each other with the frequency band sending data to via node, in the frequency band to UE transmission data, concrete mode is constant, can see the execution specification of prior art; Send the frequency band of data for via node, just consider the needs at protection interval, thus when processing band resource by part resource blank out, and it can be used as protection interval.
In enforcement, when between the subframe that via node sends data and reception data, GP is set, be specifically as follows:
Via node is received n symbol before in the frequency band that data use and be set to blank.
Or, when also protection interval can be set between the subframe that via node sends data and reception data, be specially:
Rear n the symbol sent by via node in the frequency band that data use is set to blank.
Concrete, n symbol in frequency band can be n OFDM symbol of frequency band.
Like this, when n symbol of the frequency band taken by via node is available as protection interval, the interference between descending/upstream data can just be avoided; Send the band region of data at eNB to UE, and without configuration protection interval, the frequency band that this frequency band and via node take carries out frequency division multiplexing, there is not interference problem each other.
By the way; before only needing that via node is received data area frequency band, several symbol is available; on partial-band, the interference at via node place between descending/upstream data just can be avoided in configuration protection interval exactly; and protect interval also only to take partial-band, thus decrease the waste of band resource.
In enforcement, the span of n can be: n × T × c >=2 × R; Wherein:
T is OFDM symbol time span, and c is the light velocity, and R is the service range radius of via node.
Just can ensure not interference between sending/receiving data by above-mentioned value, the length of GP is also the shortest simultaneously, further avoids the waste to resource.
Based on same inventive concept, a kind for the treatment of facility of intermediate frequency band resources of relay system is additionally provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the principle of dealing with problems due to these equipment is similar to the processing method of intermediate frequency band resources of relay system, therefore the enforcement of these equipment see the enforcement of method, can repeat part and is not repeating.
Fig. 5 is the treatment facility structural representation of intermediate frequency band resources of relay system, as shown in the figure, can comprise in treatment facility:
Band determination module 501, for determining the frequency band that via node reception data use;
Frequency band processing module 502, for receiving in the frequency band that uses of data at via node, sending between data and the subframe receiving data at via node and arranging GP.
In enforcement, described frequency band processing module can be further used for via node send between data and the subframe receiving data, GP is set time, via node is received n symbol before in the frequency band that data use and is set to blank.
Described frequency band processing module also can be further used for via node send protection interval is set between data and the subframe receiving data time, rear n the symbol sent by via node in the frequency band that data use is set to blank.
Frequency band processing module can also be further used for the n of a frequency band OFDM symbol to be set to blank.
Frequency band processing module also can be further used for determining that the span of n is: n × T × c >=2 × R; Wherein:
T is OFDM symbol time span, and c is the light velocity, and R is the service range radius of via node.
For convenience of description, each several part of the above device is divided into various module or unit to describe respectively with function.Certainly, the function of each module or unit can be realized in same or multiple software or hardware when implementing of the present invention.
From above-mentioned enforcement; one is needed to protect interval to the interference problem between the sending/receiving data avoiding via node place for the via node place in relay system; in order to avoid the wasting of resources of Whole frequency band; have employed the blank of partial-band as protection interval; avoid the deficiency whole frequency band being all used as protection interval; concrete, can only at the protection interval of frequency band place configuration n the symbol that via node uses.Achieve can ensure sending/receiving data between noiseless, also can avoid the interference between frequency band, also save resource simultaneously, improve the utilance of band system band; Also for some can not GP configuring when, the GP of configuration section frequency band can provide solution.
