So far, RS has completed once the transfer to uplink data, and sends to UE in the transfer process and confirm feedback message, makes UE can in time understand the state of the data of sending, so that follow-up associative operation.
In data transmission procedure, due to the generation that the network equipment breaks down or network produces the situation such as congested, can produce makeing mistakes or losing of data message, so just need the recipient in the situation that confirmation has message make mistakes or lose, the message that retransfers and make mistakes or lose to the transmit leg request.The specific embodiment of the invention has just configured automatic repeat request (ARQ) switching function in rlc layer, this function makes RS when transfer up-downgoing data, have the automatic repeat request function, namely RS can ask transmit leg to resend the message of makeing mistakes after receiving error message.simultaneously, the number of times that retransmits in order to reduce message, improve the efficient in data transfer procedure, if there are a plurality of repeated links between the one piece of data link, can also adopt automatic repeat request (HARQ) mode of mixing between each jumping of repeated link, be that between each of repeated link jumped, the mistake of transfer of data surpasses when setting scope, just carry out the re-transmission of error message, but the final jump at whole repeated link, the RS of this final jump need to open the ARQ function, to realize that whole repeated link has the ARQ function, like this, both improved the efficient of transfer of data, do not affect the accuracy of transfer of data yet.
The major function of lower one deck of rlc layer (MAC layer) is to complete access control, realize that logic channel is to the mapping of transmission channel, wireless resource scheduling etc.The specific embodiment of the invention configures optional feedback relay function in this layer, make RS simultaneously can send feedback message to transmitting terminal in the process of transfer up-downgoing data, and this transmitting terminal can be UE, base station or adjacent RS etc.Basic procedure is here just no longer done and is given unnecessary details with shown in Figure 12 identical.
Simultaneously, the specific embodiment of the invention has also configured random two-way access channel (RACH) function in the MAC layer, this functional module comprises RACH-u and RACH-e two parts, wherein, RACH-u is mainly used in being responsible for the access of UE, as shown in figure 14, this figure is UE based on non-competing random access procedure figure:
Step 1401:RS issues a non-competing random access guiding to UE;
The non-competing random access guiding that step 1402:UE uses RS to issue accesses at random;
Step 1403:RS issues random access to UE and replys message, carries the contents such as random access guiding sign, time adjustment information, the distribution of initial uplink resource in this message.
Correspondingly, RACH-e is mainly used in being responsible for access eNB, for example, can choose 5 bit random numbers and send random access guiding message to eNB in access procedure, sends RRC connection request message or RRC switch acknowledgment message etc.
Above illustrated embodiment is all to add corresponding functional module in each layer of protocol stack of the interface aloft, make radio repeater station except the function with transfer up-downgoing data, simultaneously can be according to the situation scheduling wireless network resource of network, rationally utilize Internet resources, improve the efficient of transfer of data, in addition, its encryption function of adding also can further improve the fail safe of transfer of data.
