Three, the present invention's three, the base station scheduling control method
Referring to Fig. 6, this method comprises the following steps:
Produce dispatching priority step 101, according to the user state information of system, wireless channel conditions, professional QoS or precedence information utilize scheduling strategy, produce the dispatching priority tabulation that all UE in each sub-district under this base stations control form;
As Fig. 2, for the distribution of the baseband board disposal ability of different NodeB, scheduling (priority) tabulation can comprise all UE of a NodeB or all UE of a sub-district.Baseband board (BB) disposal ability of sharing when the different districts of same NodeB, (or circulation) order or the order of arranging the UE of different districts at random according to the precedence information (as gold medal UE, silver medal UE) of UE.
Resource allocation step 102, order according to described UE dispatching priority tabulation, the user state information of coupling system, wireless channel conditions, the loading condition of sub-district, professional QoS or precedence information, utilize resource allocation policy, to satisfy QoS of survice and to improve the cell radio resource utilance is treatment principle, correctly produces the dispatching command of specifying UE, with the distribution of control cell radio resource;
Command selection step 103 according to described UE dispatching command, and in conjunction with dispatching cycle and downlink signaling channel code information of managing, is carried out command selection in command option, and this selected order to user terminal of output.
Also the happy bit information according to input produces the dispatching command of specifying UE in above-mentioned resource allocation step, to carry out the Fast Dynamic resource allocation.
In above-mentioned resource allocation step, be that the method for treatment principle is to satisfy QoS of survice and to improve the cell radio resource utilance:
Substep is set: each UE is carried out the parameter setting, comprising: the minimum value Rmin that reaches minimum " assurance " bit rate (mGbr) that satisfies QoS control; Satisfy to improve the currency Rcurr of the buffer status of the highest logic channel that cell radio resource utilance and consideration be in service priority; And when cell load is light, carry out the maximum Rmax of allocation of radio resources according to the total buffer state;
Rmin: satisfy the Rmin of the mGbr (if, then being optional) of QoS control, Rmin>=mGbr not from the QoS demand of RNC transmission.
Rmax: when cell load is light, use usually, and it is defined as:
Rmax=min{maxE-TFC (maximum transport format), maximum data rate requests, UPH (user power surplus), maxAvailable_BB resource (maximum available BB resource) }; Wherein maximum data rate requests can mean allocation, is defined as maximum cushioning amount/dispatching cycle (as TEBS/SP), also can adopt maximum bit rate to distribute, and is defined as maximum cushioning amount/frame period (TTI) to wait other strategy.
Rcurr: be used for optimized dispatching device resource utilization, it is defined as follows:
Rcurr is Rmin, professional QoS (a), user's buffer status (buffer status, b) and channel condition (Channel condition, weighting c), R=Rmin+w1*b+w2*c+w3*f>=Rmin, w1 wherein, w2 and w3 are weight coefficients.Consider UPH and TEBS among the Rmax, Rcurr<=Rmax
Upgrade substep: in scheduling, calculate all Rmin of each UE, Rmax and Rcurr, and by the dispatching command of following Policy Updates UE, that is:
Step a: if certain UE has corresponding QoS configuration, then the Rmin of this UE is set to corresponding value satisfying the QoS configuration, and the variation of disposing with QoS and dynamically being upgraded; If UE does not have corresponding QoS configuration, Rmin can be made as zero; And the dispatching command that upgrades UE is the resource based on the Rmin value;
Step b:, then all UE in the dispatch list are upgraded in order it and be scheduling to order for based on the resource of Rcurr if the sub-district also has available RTWP resource;
Step c: if the still old available RTWP resource in sub-district is then upgraded all UE in the dispatch list in order it and is scheduling to order for based on the resource of Rmax.
The output step: last, the dispatching command of dispatch list and all UE thereof is delivered to the command selection module and sends.
Therefore, the elementary tactics of resource allocation is the Rmin that satisfies all UE earlier, then on the basis that residue RTWP resource is arranged, be followed successively by the Rcurr that satisfies UE in order by the dispatching priority tabulation, have only when the Rcurr of all UE is met and residue RTWP resource is arranged, the order by the dispatching priority tabulation is followed successively by the Rmax that satisfies UE again.
In addition, in above-mentioned resource allocation step,, adjust the UE dispatching command that gives, to satisfy the disposal ability of baseband board also according to the respective handling demand of ul transmissions and the disposal ability of system's baseband board.
Distribution for baseband board (BB) disposal ability of base station the present invention proposes two kinds of scheduling shown in Fig. 3~4:
Referring to Fig. 3, the UE of different districts can arrange according to the order of sequence according to the loading condition of sub-district or user's priority etc.;
Referring to Fig. 4, also can be an independently dispatching priority tabulation of all UE formation of each sub-district.
For of the influence of base band (BB) plate disposal ability, can do simple following processing at resource distribution module to allocation of radio resources:
If the processing needs>remaining BB disposal ability of the ul transmissions of scheduling, then dispatching command is made as remaining BB disposal ability.
Above embodiment is only for the usefulness that the present invention is described, but not limiting the scope of the invention.Relevant those skilled in the art under the situation that does not break away from the spirit and scope of the present invention, can also make various conversion or modification, and the technical scheme that all are equal to also should belong within the category of the present invention's protection, is limited by each claim.
