Abstract

The invention provides a distribution method of a special down channel of a relay station. When the relay station completes the network insertion and initialization, a base station can actively distribute the special down channel for the relay station, or the relay station can ask the base station to distribute the special down channel for the relay station. Through the invention, in multiple hop junction networks, when a terminal performs the period ranging, the relay station does not need to apply for down bandwidth used for transferring control signaling to the terminal from the base station, thereby time delay and resource waste which are caused in the information alternation process are saved.

Description

Relay station dedicated downlink channel and distribution method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to the communications field, particularly, relate to relay station dedicated downlink channel and distribution method thereof, it is particularly useful for nontransparent centralized scheduling multi-hop relay network.
Background technology
As shown in Figure 1, in the multihop relay system that IEEE 802.16j standard operation group proposes, one or several relay stations (Relay Station, abbreviation RS) is set at base station (the Multi-hop Relay Base Station that supports multi-hop relay, be called for short MR-BS) and portable terminal (Mobile Stations, be called for short MS) between, by relay station the relay transmission of base station and terminal signaling is reached the expansion of coverage and the increase of power system capacity.In order to satisfy the needs of different application scene, relay station can be set to fixed relay station or mobile-relay station; According to whether producing and send prefix and control messages, relay station can be divided into transparent relay stations and nontransparent relay station.Hereinafter, will support the base station of multi-hop relay to abbreviate the base station as.
In the multi-hop relay network, from terminal through relay station, the transmission link to the base station is made of access link and repeated link at last.Wherein, access link is initial or ends at the communication link of terminal, can be the link between terminal and the base station that directly is attached thereto, also can be the link between terminal and the relay station that is attached thereto.Repeated link is link between base station and the relay station that is attached thereto or the communication link between two relay stations.
In centralized scheduling, the base station unification is for the access link of multi-hop relay sub-district and repeated link Resources allocation and produce corresponding M AP (mapping), is perhaps produced the MAP of oneself according to the indication information of base station by relay station.In distributed scheduling, the resource allocation of base station and relay station difference determinant relay station or terminal, and produce corresponding M AP.
Under the nontransparent situation of in IEEE 802.16j_D1 document, stipulating, comprise a sub-frame of uplink and a descending sub frame in the frame structure of base station and relay station respectively, and each sub-frame of uplink and each descending sub frame insert zone (Access Zone) by one respectively and a relaying zone (Relay Zone) constitutes.Wherein, Access Zone is used for the transmission of access link, and Relay Zone is used for the transmission of repeated link.R-MAP (Relay-MAP, relaying mapping) message is meant the MAP message that is sent at Relay Zone by base station or relay station.
IEEE 802.16j_D1 document is that the situation of nontransparent centralized scheduling has designed the R-MAP IE of " RS_BW-ALLOC IE " by name, to be used to be transmitted in the control messages between relay station and the terminal, for example RNG-RSP (range finding-answer message), MOB_NBR-ADV (Neighbor Advertisement), DCD (down channel describing message) and UCD (up channel describing message) to the relay station Resources allocation.
Particularly, Fig. 1 shows the flow chart of terminal periodic range finding (ranging) in the existing nontransparent centralized scheduling multi-hop relay network that defines in IEEE 802.16j_D1 document, wherein, cycle ranging originates in terminal at specific cycle ranging CDMA sign indicating number of selecting at random of up zone transmission.After relay station was received, the local RNG-RSP that sends was to terminal.Wherein, the downlink bandwidth that sends RNG-RSP need be applied for to the base station by RS BR header.Base station feedback RS_DL_MAP-IE distributes to the downlink bandwidth of relay station with indication.As shown in Figure 1, in whole flow process, each relay station sends before the RNG-RSP to terminal, all will apply for downlink bandwidth (in Fig. 1, the with dashed lines arrow illustrates) to the base station by RS BR header.
As mentioned above, under nontransparent centralized scheduling situation, utilize such scheme, each relay station all will be applied for downlink bandwidth to the base station to before the terminal transmission control signaling, and this has just caused end to end that interacting message can produce very big time delay and resource overhead.
Summary of the invention
At this problem, the present invention proposes the dedicated downlink channel allocative decision of relay station.
According to the present invention, a kind of distribution method of relay station dedicated downlink channel is provided, this method is used for the multi-hop relay network of nontransparent centralized scheduling, above-mentioned multi-hop relay network comprises base station, relay station and terminal, in the method, when relay station was finished network insertion and initialization, the base station was that relay station distributes dedicated downlink channel.
Wherein, the base station is that to distribute cell be that RS-DL_DCH assignment IE is that relay station distributes dedicated downlink channel for relay station downlink dedicated channels among the R-MAP by relay map message.
In addition, the dedicated downlink channel of base station assigns can transmit a message signaling at least, the each dedicated downlink channel that distributes in base station is effective in N frame, and can upgrade according to the demand of traffic load, wherein, the demand of traffic load can periodically be calculated or be calculated after Event triggered by relay station.
