Exemplary embodiment of the present provides a kind of technology, is used for when the wireless communication system that in use continues is carried out ARQ, whether having mistake by RS to higher level's node report relay data.That is, the embodiment of the invention provides a kind of technology, and wherein whether RS exists mistake to higher level's node report from the uplink data that downstream site receives through ACK/NACK information.This superior node is BS or higher level RS, here with BS as an example.This downstream site is MS or the RS of subordinate, here with MS as an example.
Although will insert at orthogonal frequency-division in the context of (OFDMA) wireless communication system and describe the present invention, be appreciated that the present invention also is applicable to other multichannel access communication systems.
In the wireless communication system that in use continues, RS as shown in Figure 2 carries out relaying to the signal between BS and the MS.
Fig. 2 shows the configuration of wireless communication system of the use relaying of the exemplary embodiments according to the present invention.
With reference to figure 2, the MS 220 in the coverage of BS 200 receives service through direct link from BS 200.Yet if MS 220 is positioned at the edge (for example cell boarder) of coverage, the channel status between BS 200 and the MS 220 is comparatively abominable, and therefore BS 200 can not provide high speed data channels to MS 220.
Yet BS 200 can provide high speed data channels to the MS under abominable channel status (such as MS 220) through RS 210.On down link, the high-speed data that MS 220 receives from BS 200 through RS 210.Because MS 220 is in the coverage of BS 200, MS 220 can receive control signal and low speed data from BS 200 through direct link.
On up link, BS 200 receives the high-speed data from MS 220 through RS.BS 200 can receive the low speed data signal from MS 220 through direct link.
As stated, intercom mutually in the wireless communication system that BS, RS and MS can in use continue.BS and MS can pass through the RS swap data.
In addition, BS and MS can carry out exchanges data through direct link, and need not the help of RS.Then, RS can intercept the data of between BS and MS, transmitting.
As stated, BS can receive the uplink data from MS or RS.Receive for uplink data, BS can select a node, receives from this node to have the high data that receive success rate between MS and the RS.
If BS detects the mistake in the uplink data, BS can select a node according to reception success rate between MS and the RS or channel status, from the data retransmission of these node receiving uplink data.For example, for data re-transmission, wireless communication system is operated with the process of describing among Fig. 3.Below describe and receive from the uplink data of RS and the hypothesis of data re-transmission thereof based on BS.
Fig. 3 shows and carries out the process that uplink signal retransmits in the wireless communication system that in use continues according to the embodiment of the invention.
With reference to figure 3, BS 300 sends the schedule information about resource, wherein MS 304 transfer uplink data to RS 302 and/or in step 313 to MS 304 in step 311.For example, the two sends schedule informations to BS 300 to RS 302 and MS 304, or sends schedule informations through RS 302 to MS 304.
As an alternative embodiment of the invention, it is contemplated that BS 300 only is sent to MS 304 with schedule information.In this case, RS 302 intercepts the schedule information that is directed to MS 304, and inspection is used for the uplink scheduling information of MS 304.This schedule information comprises resource allocation information; This resource allocation information has been indicated the resource of wherein wanting transfer uplink data, and this schedule information also comprises modulation and encoding scheme (MCS), sends the identifier (ID) of the MS of uplink data and the through-put power of uplink data according to this schedule information.
RS 302 and MS 304 detect the time of coming scheduled transmission data and resource allocation information according to schedule information MS 304.
In step 315 or 317, MS 304 is according to the schedule information transfer uplink data.For example, in step 315, MS 304 according to schedule information with uplink data transmission to RS 302.If MS 304 does not recognize RS 302, in step 317, MS 304 with uplink data transmission to BS.In this case, RS 302 intercepts the data that directly are directed to BS 300 according to this schedule information.
In step 319, for example, RS 302 uses the Cyclic Redundancy Check of data, the mistake of inspection from the data that MS 304 receives.
In order to make RS 302 whether have mistake by the reporting uplink link data, in step 321, BS 300 is sent to RS 302 with schedule information.Because BS 300 can confirm the time that MS 304 uses the uplink scheduling information of MS 304 to transmit data, so BS 300 considers the data transmission period of MS 304, will be used for the schedule information that ACK/NACK information sends and be sent to RS 302.If the preset ACK/NACK channel of ACK/NACK information that carried between BS 300 and RS 302, BS 300 need not be provided for the schedule information that ACK/NACK sends to RS 302.
If there is mistake in uplink data, in step 323, RS 302 sends nack message to BS 300.
When receiving nack message, in step 325, BS 300 sends NACK message to MS 304, the re-transmission of request uplink data.
In step 327 or 329, the schedule information that BS 300 will be used for the re-transmission of error data is sent to RS 302 and MS 304.For example, BS 300 is sent to RS 302 and MS 304 with schedule information, or is sent to MS 304 through RS 302.
As an alternative embodiment of the invention, can further imagine, BS 300 only is sent to MS 304 with schedule information.In this case, RS 302 intercepts the schedule information that is directed to MS 304.
RS 302 and MS 304 detects the time that MS 304 will come data retransmission and the resource scheduling information relevant with data re-transmission according to schedule information.
In step 331 or 333, MS 304 retransmits data according to schedule information.For example, in step 331 MS 304 according to schedule information with data re-transmission to RS 302.If MS 304 does not recognize RS 302, in step 333, MS 304 with data re-transmission to BS.In this case, RS 302 intercepts the data retransmission that is directed to MS 300.
In step 335, for example RS 302 uses the CRC of data, the mistake of inspection the data retransmission that receives from MS 304.
In order to make RS 302 can report whether data retransmission exists mistake, in step 337, BS 300 is sent to RS 302 with schedule information.Because BS 300 can confirm the time that MS 304 transmits data according to the uplink scheduling information of MS 304, so MS 300 considers the data transmission period of MS 304, and the schedule information that will be used for ACK/NACK information is sent to RS 302.If between BS 300 and RS 302, preset the ACK/NACK channel that carries ACK/NACK information, BS 300 need not be provided for the schedule information that ACK/NACK sends to RS 302.
If uplink data is free from mistakes, in step 339, RS 302 sends ACK information to BS 300.
When receiving ACK information, in step 341, BS 300 sends schedule information to RS 302, and RS 302 utilizes this schedule information transfer uplink data.When the ACK information that receives from RS 302, BS 300 can be sent to MS 304 with ACK information.
In step 343, RS 302 will be sent to BS 300 from the data retransmission that MS 304 receives according to schedule information.
In step 345, for example BS 300 uses the CRC of data, the mistake of inspection from the data that RS 302 receives.
If data are free from mistakes, in step 347 or 349, BS 300 sends ACK information to RS 302 and MS 304.For example, BS 300 is sent to RS 302 and MS 304 with ACK information, or is sent to MS 304 through RS 302.
In another embodiment of the present invention, BS 300 only is sent to MS304 with ACK information.In this case, RS 302 intercepts the ACK information that is directed to MS 304 and confirms that the data that are sent to BS 300 are free from mistakes.If RS 302 does not receive nack message or the schedule information relevant with data re-transmission from BS 300 in the given time, RS 302 confirms that the data that are sent to BS 300 are free from mistakes.
As stated, pass through under the situation of RS reception from the uplink data of MS at BS, whether RS exists mistake through ACK/NACK information to the BS report data.For example, if there is mistake in the data that receive from MS, RS sends nack message to BS.If data are free from mistakes, RS sends ACK information to BS.
When receiving ACK information from RS, BS will be sent to RS with the corresponding schedule information that is used for data of ACK information, and receive data from RS.
On the other hand, when receiving nack message, BS will be sent to MS, the re-transmission of request msg with the corresponding schedule information that is used for data of nack message.
Whether the data that receive from MS for report exist mistake, and RS is sent to BS according to the schedule information that receives from BS with ACK/NACK information.This ACK/NACK information can be used for physical channel that whether report data exist mistake, in the information element of control messages and medium access control (MAC) sub-header that can send with data or header, be sent to BS by definition.If RS uses physical channel, BS should be provided for the schedule information of physical channel to RS.Yet when between BS and RS, presetting physical channel, BS need not to be provided for to RS the schedule information of physical channel.If RS uses control messages, mac header or MAC sub-header, RS sends ACK/NACK information according to the schedule information that receives from BS to BS.
The sequence number of the data block that the message of carrying ACK/NACK information comprises the ID of the RS that sends ACK/NACK information alternatively, receive from MS to the ID of the MS of RS transmission data, sign and the indication bit that is used for the expression ACK/NACK information of this data block.
Wireless communication system has two main retransmission schemes, at the MAC of MAC layer operation retransmission scheme and at physical layer (PHY) retransmission scheme of physical layer operations.The PHY retransmission scheme also is called as hybrid ARQ (HARQ).
In the MAC retransmission scheme, RS can be sent to BS with ACK/NACK information in control messages, MAC sub-header or mac header.Each control messages, MAC sub-header or mac header comprise the connection ID (CID) that is assigned to the RS that sends ACK/NACK information, be assigned to CID to the MS of RS transmission data, as piece sequence number (BSN), the ARQ type of unique sequential value that the data block that receives from MS is identified and bitmap with indication bit of the ACK/NACK information that BSN according to data block representes to be used for data block.
In the PHY retransmission scheme, RS can perhaps be sent to BS with ACK/NACK information being used for the physical channel whether report data exists mistake by definition in control messages, MAC sub-header or mac header.Each control messages; MAC sub-header or mac header comprise the CID that is assigned to the RS that sends ACK/NACK information; Be assigned to CID to the MS of RS transmission data; HARQ channel id (ACID) as the one number of the HARQ data channel that unique sequential value of the data block that receives from MS is indicated; The Sub-Packet ID (SPID) of the one number of the sub-block among the indication ACID; Whether designation data is the ARQ identifier nucleotide sequence number (AI_SN) of data retransmission; ARQ type and have the bitmap of indication bit that expression is used for the ACK/NACK information of data block.
If RS sends ACK/NACK information on physical channel; Transmission for uplink data; RS arranges ACK/NACK information to the data block that receives from MS, and this bitmap is sent to RS according to by the rule of BS formulation or the schedule information that is sent to MS according to BS bitmap.
If adopted HARQ, BS should Resources allocation, and RS sends the ACK/NACK information of the uplink data that receives from MS in said resource.For example, in being included in by the information element among the up link MAP of the 802.16e of IEEE (IEEE) definition, BS uses the configuration information element identical with HARQ ACK region allocation information element to distribute the ACK/NACK information area as RS.Promptly; Through Extended-2UIUC (uplink interval the is used sign indicating number) field of HARQ ACK region allocation information element is arranged to different values, BS has indicated HARQ ACK region allocation information element to comprise the resource allocation information about the ACK/NACK information area of RS.
BS also comes to dispatch the time that RS sends ACK/NACK information to the RS notice through in by upstream channel descriptor (UCD) message of IEEE 802.16e definition, adding fresh information.
For example, BS sends schedule information to RS, and request RS sends the ACK/NACK information that is used for data k frame after receiving data.If RS is at j ThReceive uplink data from MS in the physical frame, RS is at (j+k) ThUtilize in the frame in the resource of HARQ ACK region allocation information element distribution, send the ACK/NACK information that is used to receive data to BS
To retransmit about the uplink data in the wireless communication system that in use continues now, the operation of BS will be described.
Fig. 4 is the operational flowchart that is used for the BS of uplink retransmission in the wireless communication system that in use continues according to one embodiment of the invention.
With reference to figure 4, in step 401, BS sends the schedule information about resource to RS and MS, and MS is transfer uplink data in this resource.For example, BS sends schedule information to RS and MS, or sends schedule information through RS to MS.As an alternative embodiment of the invention, can further imagine, BS only sends schedule information to MS.In this case, RS intercepts the schedule information that is directed to MS and checks the uplink scheduling information that is used for this MS.
In step 403, BS 300 considers that the data transmission period of MS sends schedule information, sends ACK/NACK message through this schedule information RS.If between BS and RS, preset the channel that carries ACK/NACK information, BS need not to be provided for the schedule information that ACK/NACK sends to RS.
In step 405, BS is used for physical channel, control messages, MAC sub-header or mac header that whether report data exist mistake through inspection by definition and monitors whether receive ACK message from RS.
When receiving NACK message, in step 415, BS is sent to MS with NACK message, the re-transmission of request uplink data.
Then, BS turns back to step 401, and wherein the BS schedule information that will be used for the re-transmission of error data is sent to RS and MS.
When receiving ACK message, in step 407, the schedule information that BS will be used for uplink data transmission is sent to RS.Simultaneously, BS can send ACK message to MS.
BS receives data in step 409 from RS according to schedule information, and for example uses the mistake in the crc check data in step 411.
If there is mistake in data, BS sends NACK message to RS in step 417, and the re-transmission of request msg also is sent to RS in the schedule information that step 407 will be used for data re-transmission.
On the contrary, if data are free from mistakes, BS sends ACK message in step 413 to RS or MS.For example, BS sends ACK message to RS and MS or to one of RS, MS.
BS process ends then.
As stated, when detecting mistake in the data that BS is receiving, the data re-transmission process of BS execution and RS or MS.When time limit that is provided for data re-transmission (lifetime) when expiring, BS finishes retransmission processes.
Although in the embodiment of the invention described above; BS will send relevant schedule information and be sent to RS with the relevant schedule information of ul transmissions with ACK/NACK; Can further imagine; In another embodiment of the present invention, when RS sends ACK/NACK information in control messages, MAC sub-header or mac header, BS will send relevant schedule information with ACK/NACK and be included in the schedule information of being correlated with uplink data transmission.
To describe with reference to the uplink data retransmission operation of the RS in 5 pairs of wireless communication systems that in use continue of figure.
Fig. 5 is the operational flowchart that is used for the BS of uplink relay in the wireless communication system that in use continues according to the embodiment of the invention.
With reference to figure 5, RS is at the uplink scheduling information of step 501 inspection MS.RS is from BS receiving uplink schedule information and intercept the uplink scheduling information that is directed to MS from BS.
In step 503, RS monitors the Data Receiving from MS according to schedule information.If do not receive data in the given time, RS is back to step 501.
When MS receives data, the ACK/NACK that RS checks in step 505 and receives from BS sends relevant schedule information.
In step 507, for example RS uses the mistake of crc check in the data that receive.Here, step 507 can be mentioned before the step 505.
If have mistake in the data that receive, in step 517, the RS basis is sent relevant schedule information with ACK/NACK NACK message is sent to BS.Whether be used for report data in the quilt definition exists the physical channel of mistake or sends this NACK message at control messages, MAC sub-header or mac header.
Then, RS is back to the uplink scheduling information that step 501 is checked MS.
On the other hand, if the data that receive from MS are free from mistakes, the RS basis is sent relevant schedule information with ACK/NACK ACK message is sent to BS in step 509.Whether report data exists the physical channel of mistake or on control messages, MAC sub-header or mac header, send this ACK message being used for by definition.
RS checks the schedule information relevant with uplink data transmission in step 511 then, and the transfer of data that in step 513, will receive from MS according to this schedule information is to BS.
In step 515, whether the RS monitoring receives the repeat requests signal from BS.This repeat requests signal is to send or the relevant schedule information of data re-transmission with NACK.
When receiving the repeat requests signal, RS turns back to step 511 and the inspection schedule information relevant with data re-transmission.For example, if RS receives NACK message from BS, the schedule information that the RS inspection is relevant with the data re-transmission that receives from BS thinks that there is mistake in the data that are transferred to BS.
Simultaneously, if do not received this repeat requests signal, RS finishes this flow process.For example, if RS receives ACK message from BS, RS finishes this flow process.Directly receive this ACK message indirectly from BS or through intercepting the message of sending from BS.
In another embodiment of the present invention, if RS does not receive the repeat requests signal from BS in the given time, RS finishes this flow process, thinks that the data that are transferred to BS are free from mistakes.
As stated, based on the request of BS, RS carries out the data re-transmission flow process.When the time limit that is provided for data re-transmission expired, RS finished to retransmit flow process.
For supporting this relay services, frame is configured to the ACK/NACK sending zone is included in the wireless communication system.
Fig. 6 shows the frame structure that is used to send ack/nack signal in the wireless communication system that in use continues according to the embodiment of the invention.
With reference to figure 6, frame 600 comprises down link (DL) subframe 610 and up link (UL) subframe 620.
