Background technology
The continuous growth of number of mobile users and high-speed data service demand are promoting further developing of wireless communication technology, and high-speed packet inserts (HSPA, High Speed Packet Access) technology and arises at the historic moment.
The HSPA evolution system is introduced N frequency or multicarrier characteristic, covers with the power system capacity that improves hot zones, and the flexibility that improves the configuring spectrum resource.So-called N frequency or multicarrier characteristic, promptly dispose a plurality of carrier waves in a sub-district, wherein, the carrying as the carrier wave of Primary Common Control Physical Channel common signal channels such as (P-CCPCH) are main carrier, and other do not carry common signal channel and the carrier wave that is generally used for carrying dedicated channel is to assist carrier wave.A N frequency point cell disposes a main carrier usually, and N-1 auxilliary carrier wave.
Usually, in the wireless communication system, for realizing the radio communication between terminal equipment and the network side, network side need dispose the channel that is used for transmission signals on the one hand, comprises that configuration is used to set up the power control information of the carrier information of channel, channel, code channel information or the like channel configuration information; On the other hand, network side need be notified to terminal equipment with channel configuration information, uses which transfer resource and network side to communicate so that terminal equipment can be known, wherein, and the carrier resource that transfer resource comprises channel resource and sets up this channel.
The following describes in the HSPA evolution system, as each network nodes such as radio network controller (RNC), base station (NodeB) and terminal equipments how by knowing that channel configuration information is to realize communicating by letter between network side and the terminal equipment.
Usually, communicate by Iub interface between RNC and the base station.At the sub-district establishment stage, RNC sets up the Common transport channel on the Iub interface chain of command, as setting up Random Access Channel (RACH) that is used as up Common Control Channel and the forward access channel (FACH) that is used as descending Common Control Channel.In addition, on this Iub interface user face, the channel that carries user data is a transmission bearer, and user data distinguishing different transmission bearers, thereby is distinguished in the network address that needs to consult the corresponding transmission bearer of Iub user's face upper signal channel between RNC and the base station.
As previously mentioned, in multicarrier or the N frequency system, related specifications points out that up RACH and descending FACH should be based upon on the main carrier, correspondingly, in the channel configuration information, the carrier information of relevant up RACH or descending FACH all is frequency point information of main carrier, therefore, on the Iub interface chain of command, RNC only needs the frequency point information of main carrier is notified to the base station; On the air interface, RNC only needs the frequency point information of main carrier is broadcast to terminal equipment by system message by the base station.
After the terminal equipment start, read system message obtains the channel configuration informations such as frequency point information of main carrier on RACH and the FACH, with resident in the sub-district.Successfully reside in the terminal equipment in the sub-district if not carrying out any signaling connects, then be in free time (idle) state.When terminal equipment is set up professional connection or signaling connection at needs, ask (RRC connection setup) message to the wireless connections foundation that network side sends Radio Resource control (RRC) layer by up RACH.
Network side can arrive corresponding connection status with terminal equipment configuration according to network load condition, as the CELL_DCH state, and CELL_FACH state etc.Under the CELL_FACH state, terminal equipment is sending the data to network side by RACH, receives the data that network side issues by FACH.Under the CELL_DCH state, terminal equipment can send the data to network side by RACH, receives the data that network side issues by high-speed downlink shared transmission channel (HS-DSCH).
Corresponding to terminal equipment configuration being arrived certain connection status, RNC sets up request message by the wireless connections of the transmission bearer receiving terminal apparatus transmission of the Iub interface user face of RACH correspondence, and set up the relevant information of carrying in the request message according to wireless connections and admit control, after which channel RNC determines to use as the terminal equipment service, on the Iub interface chain of command, sign with this terminal equipment, and the channel configuration information of employed up channel of this terminal equipment and down channel sends to the base station, and set up the private network address of the transmission bearer of up channel correspondence and the private network address of the transmission bearer of down channel correspondence for this terminal at Iub interface user face.
Because the transmission bearer of above-mentioned Iub interface user face is the dedicated transmissions carrying, therefore RNC and base station can be according to the address information of transmission bearer and the signs of the terminal of correspondence, identify this transmission bearer and belong to which terminal equipment, even terminal equipment interface use aloft is the up channel of multicarrier or the down channel of multicarrier.
After the dedicated transmissions carrying of setting up Iub interface chain of command and user's face, RNC is by the transmission bearer of the Iub interface user face of down channel correspondence, message is set up in the wireless connections of radio resource control layer sent to the base station, the base station is arrived the FACH data map on the Secondary Common Control Physical Channel (S-CCPCH), and sends to terminal by air interface.Wherein, owing to FACH only is based upon on the main carrier, so RNC can send to the base station with descending FACH data directly by the transmission bearer of descending FACH correspondence.The relevant information configuration information that carries up channel and down channel in the message is set up in wireless connections, and the indication information of wireless connection conditions is as arriving the CELL_DCH state with terminal equipment configuration.
Usually, network side can arrive the CELL_FACH state with terminal equipment configuration earlier.For requiring the downlink transmission data rate condition with higher, network side can be with terminal equipment configuration to the CELL_DCH state.Because the variation of offered load, different connection status may be moved, and will originally be in terminal equipment under the CELL_DCH state as network side, is configured under the CELL_FACH state; Perhaps will originally be in the terminal equipment under the CELL_FACH state, be configured under the CELL_DCH state; Then correspondingly, terminal equipment connection status of living in takes place under the situation of migration, and network side need be reshuffled channel informations such as the channel under the new connection status, carrier waves, and the channel configuration information of reshuffling is broadcast to terminal equipment by system message.
Usually only under the CELL-DCH state, terminal equipment can receive the data that network side sends by HS-DSCH.In order to improve the transfer rate that is mapped to the data on the FACH, relevant a kind of enhancing CELL_FACH state of proposing in the proposition HSPA evolution system, this strengthens under the CELL_FACH state, on the up direction, terminal equipment still can use the RACH channel to upload data, and on the down direction, former FACH is replaced by HS-DSCH, therefore, the lasting channel of monitoring of terminal equipment is HS-DSCH.Further specify, because FACH is replaced by HS-DSCH, therefore, transmission bearer on the Iub interface user face of this HS-DSCH correspondence no longer is the dedicated transmissions carrying, and the network address of the transmission bearer of this HS-DSCH and correspondence thereof need dispose in the Physical Shared Channel reconfiguration course of sub-district establishment stage.
Realize for convenient, and consider that the block size that strengthens under the CELL-FACH state is less relatively, relevant regulations is pointed out, in the HSPA evolution system, can be even terminal equipment possesses from being based upon the ability of a plurality of HS-DSCH reception data on the different carrier, but strengthening under the CELL-FACH state, only allowing terminal equipment to receive data from the single HS-DSCH of single carrier wave correspondence.
In addition, because in the existing communication system, RACH channel and FACH common signal channel only are based upon on the main carrier, if strengthen under the CELL_FACH state, only allow terminal equipment to use the channel that is based upon on the main carrier, then can limit the number of users that strengthens under the CELL-FACH state dramatically, therefore, relevant proposal is pointed out, the terminal equipment that allows to strengthen under the CELL-FACH state uses auxilliary carrier wave to carry out transfer of data, correspondingly, allow RACH is based upon on the auxilliary carrier wave, the HS-DSCH that carries former FACH data also can be based upon on the auxilliary carrier wave.
Owing to disposed the different RACH that are based upon respectively on main carrier and the different auxiliary carrier wave, and be based upon different HS-DSCH on main carrier and the different auxiliary carrier wave respectively, and strengthen under the CELL-FACH state, terminal equipment can only use a single carrier to send the RACH data, and can only use a single carrier to receive the HS-DSCH data, therefore, terminal equipment is before initiating access at random, need from a plurality of RACH, select a RACH with the transmission upstream data, and need from a plurality of HS-DSCH, select a HS-DSCH to monitor the data that network side issues.Similarly, owing to strengthen under the CELL_FACH state, the dedicated transmissions carrying that is exclusively used in a terminal equipment is no longer set up by Iub interface in RNC and base station, therefore, strengthen under the CELL-FACH state, RNC or base station will be difficult to distinguish the data that receive from RACH and belong to which terminal equipment, and which HS-DSCH the HS-DSCH that is difficult to the identification terminal equipment monitoring equally is, be difficult in other words adjudicate to send data to the terminal equipment of appointment by which HS-DSCH.
Therefore, on main carrier, one or more auxilliary carrier wave, set up different RACH if allow, or the HS-DSCH of replacement FACH, then strengthen under the CELL-FACH state, because of prior art does not provide transfer resource how to arrange to distribute to this terminal equipment between terminal equipment and the network side, cause being difficult to realizing communicating by letter between terminal equipment and the network side.

1And S
2Between common factor be empty.
Above-mentioned steps 601 is to step 603, by the mapping relations between RNC configurating channel and the corresponding carrier wave, and mutual by RNC and base station, on the Iub interface chain of command, make RNC and base station all can identify different channels and set up the carrier wave of this channel.Correspondingly, for making the base station can be under the control of RNC, send data by channel appointed to terminal equipment, and for to make the base station when the user data that will receive reports RNC, inform these data of RNC from which bar channel and with which carrier wave receive, on the Iub interface user face, need between RNC and the base station to notify which the transfer resource of the other side's carrying user data is, promptly need the carrier wave of carrying user data is indicated to the opposite end.
In the embodiment of the invention, based on the address of a transmission bearer by first kind of situation of a channel special use, perhaps the address of a transmission bearer is by second kind of situation of many Channel Sharing, and corresponding different situations has proposed transfer resource indicating mode on the different Iub interface user faces.
For first kind of situation, because the address of transmission bearer is the specific address, therefore, promptly can determine to use the upstream or downstream channel and the corresponding carrier wave of this address based on the network address of this transmission bearer, thereby indicating mode can be, utilize the network address that disposes the dedicated transmissions carrying of pairing transmission bearer configuration in advance for up channel, indicate up channel.The indicating mode of down channel is similar, promptly utilizes the network address that disposes the dedicated transmissions carrying of pairing transmission bearer configuration in advance for down channel, indicates down channel.Can carry out above-mentioned steps 601 during the step 603 between RNC and the base station, on the one hand correlation map is concerned that indication information indicates to the base station by RNC, RNC or base station can and specify the corresponding relation between the mapping relations to indicate to the opposite end with this address behind the network address of transmission bearer that is a special use of channel configuration on the one hand.
Because the address of a transmission bearer is shared by many channels, therefore, the address of a transmission bearer no longer can be used in the carrier wave of distinguishing different channels and setting up this channel, is applicable to that the indicating mode of first kind of situation no longer is applicable to second kind of situation.For second kind of situation, the embodiment of the invention provides, and being used on the Iub interface is set carry the data frame format of user data, and is provided for indicating the carrier wave indication information of the transfer resource of carrying user data in this data frame format.
The embodiment of the invention provides the way of two kinds of carrier wave indication information indication carrier wave relevant informations.
Way one: in the embodiment of the invention, in the set data frame format, the carrier wave indication information can be designated as the carrier index value.Before interactive user data between network side and the terminal equipment, by RNC or base station configuration and store the protocol value of carrier frequency and the corresponding relation between the index value, and can set up in process or Common transport channel reconfiguration course or the Physical Shared Channel reconfiguration course as Common transport channel on the Iub interface chain of command, the indication information of this corresponding relation is notified to the opposite end, stores by the opposite end.As the protocol value that disposes carrier wave is 10087,10056,10052, and the then corresponding protocol value that is provided with is that the index value of 10087 carrier wave is 0, and the index value that protocol value is set is 10056 carrier wave is 1, and the index value that protocol value is set is 10052 carrier wave is 2.Then, if if carrying the carrier index value in the upstream or downstream Frame is 1, the protocol value of then representing the carrier wave of this upstream or downstream channel correspondence is 10056.Correspondingly, RNC or base station can be known the carrier wave of this Frame of carrying based on this carrier index value, and based on carrier wave and the mapping relations that are based upon the channel on this carrier wave, know the channel of this Frame of carrying, up channel as this Frame of indication carrying in this Frame, then RNC can be according to the binding relationship between up channel and the down channel in the transfer resource indication information, find corresponding down channel, and the control base station sends user data by this down channel, promptly in Frame, indicate the down channel of this Frame of carrying, the base station receives after this Frame can know by which down channel to send data to terminal equipment.
Way two: in the embodiment of the invention, in the set data frame format, the carrier wave indication information also can directly be designated as the carrier frequency protocol value.Then in this way two, no longer need and store the protocol value of carrier frequency and the corresponding relation between the index value by RNC or base station configuration, but can be directly in Frame the frequency information of the carrier wave of this Frame of indication carrying, as carrier protocol value up or that down channel is corresponding is 10080, directly carrier frequency protocol value 10080 is being carried in the Frame of up channel or down channel.Correspondingly, RNC or base station can be known the carrier wave of this Frame of carrying based on this carrier index value, and based on carrier wave and the mapping relations that are based upon the channel on this carrier wave, know the channel of this Frame of carrying.
During specific implementation, above-mentioned steps 601 can be on Iub interface to the execution of step 603, and Common transport channel is set up in the process, or in the Common transport channel reconfiguration course, or carry out in the Physical Shared Channel reconfiguration course.
Step 604, RNC configuration comprise the complete transfer resource indication information of binding relationship indication information, and complete transfer resource indication information is sent to terminal equipment by the base station.
For the base station, when communicating by letter with terminal equipment, the binding relationship between the up channel that does not need the base station to know to be used to the terminal equipment service and the corresponding down channel.On up direction, the base station only need receive upstream data from up channel, and upstream data is sent to RNC, and information such as channel and carrier wave are indicated to RNC; On down direction, the base station only need be based on the control of RNC, and the downlink data that RNC is issued sends by the indicated transfer resource of RNC and gets final product.
But terminal equipment need be known the binding relationship of up-downgoing interchannel, thereby terminal equipment can be by distributing to the transfer resource of this terminal equipment, and communicates by letter between the network side.
Comprise carrier wave a, carrier wave b and carrier wave c if can be used for setting up the carrier wave of channel, enumerate transfer resource indication information example that RNC disposes just like:

In the embodiment of the invention, the transfer resource indication information that the RNC storage is disposed, and can the transfer resource indication information that be disposed be broadcast to terminal equipment by the system message of control base station by air interface; Or can the transfer resource indication information that be disposed be notified to terminal equipment at wireless process or the radio bearer foundation or the reconfiguration course set up of radio resource control layer.
If up channel is based upon on the different carrier waves with corresponding down channel, then terminal equipment is sending information by up channel, and receive by down channel in the process of information, need the process of the employed carrier frequency of experience change, claim that usually this process is a frequency hopping.Because frequency hopping can influence the communication capacity of terminal equipment, therefore, in the practical application, preferably, can exist the down channel of binding relationship to be based upon on the identical carrier wave with up channel and with this up channel, as carrier wave a and carrier wave b is identical carrier wave, and perhaps, carrier wave b is identical carrier wave with carrier wave c.Thereby, on the one hand follow-up terminal equipment is selected the up channel that is used to communicate by letter and corresponding down channel from the transfer resource indication information after, can avoid frequency hopping continually, on the other hand, RNC can not need to dispose the frequency information of the carrier wave that is used to set up up channel or down channel.
Step 605, the transfer resource indication information that terminal equipment receives and the storage networking side sends.
When step 606, terminal equipment communicate with network side at needs, according to the transfer resource indication information of storage, the selected transfer resource that communicates with network side of being used for.
In the practical application, usually can comprise the up mapping relations indication information of many groups in the transfer resource indication information, many descending mapping relations indication informations of group and many group bindings concern indication information, terminal equipment receives the transfer resource indication information from system message after, can therefrom select according to default selective rule and be used for communicating the up channel of usefulness and corresponding carrier wave with network side, binding relationship indication information according to correspondence is selected the down channel that has binding relationship with this up channel, according to the descending mapping relations indication information in this down channel place, select the carrier wave of this down channel correspondence; With the up channel selected and corresponding carrier wave and, have the down channel of binding relationship and corresponding carrier wave with this up channel, as the transfer resource that communicates with network side.
For the purpose of convenient, can with the up mapping relations indication information between up channel in the transfer resource indication information and the corresponding carrier wave, and this up channel down channel of having a binding relationship and corresponding carrier wave between up mapping relations indication information, and relevant binding relationship indication information be can be regarded as one group of indication information.The precedence that in system message, occurs according to every group of indication information, each group indication information is numbered, correspondingly, this numbering also is the numbering of the related up mapping relations indication information of this group indication information, and the numbering of descending mapping relations indication information.
The embodiment of the invention provides two kinds of selective rules to be used for terminal equipment and selects transfer resource, wherein,
Rule one: terminal equipment selects indicated channel of one group of indication information and carrier wave as the transfer resource that is used to communicate by letter at random, as optional one group of up mapping relations indication information indicated up channel and corresponding carrier wave, or down channel and corresponding carrier wave;
Rule two: terminal equipment generates a preliminary treatment number based on default rule, the group sum of the indication information of terminal equipment being received with this preliminary treatment number carries out delivery and calculates, and establish the group # that the delivery result is the indication information that this terminal equipment selects, also be up mapping relations indication information or descending mapping relations indication information place group #; Wherein, the rule of setting as, get as global mobile user identification (IMSI) number, or Temporary Mobile (TMSI) number, or Terminal Equipment Identifier such as land mobile communication system wireless network identification (U-RNTI) number number is the preliminary treatment number.
In the practical application, selective rule can be set as required, exhaustive no longer one by one.
Step 607, terminal equipment utilization are selected up channel and corresponding carrier wave from the indicated up mapping relations of many groups of up mapping relations indication informations, utilize up channel and the carrier wave selected, send upstream data to network side.
Terminal equipment can utilize RACH or E-DCH and the corresponding carrier wave of selecting, and sends upstream data to network side.
Step 608, base station detect the upstream data that terminal equipment sends from the employed up channel of terminal equipment, the upstream data that receives is sent to RNC, and the employed carrier information corresponding with this up channel indicated to RNC.
In this step 608, the base station is from the employed up channel of terminal equipment, use corresponding carrier wave to receive upstream data, upstream data is sent to RNC, and the employed carrier wave of terminal equipment indicated to RNC according to the indicating mode that sets in advance, as in Frame, writing carrier wave indication information etc.
Step 609, RNC basis be binding relationship indication information and mapping relations indication information in advance, find the down channel corresponding and set up the carrier wave of this down channel with the employed up channel of terminal equipment, the carrier wave of setting up this down channel is sent to the base station according to default indicating mode and downlink data to be sent, by the base station based in advance the storage the mapping relations indication information, find the down channel that sends this downlink data, and utilize the carrier wave of down channel correspondence, by this down channel, downlink data is sent to terminal equipment.
In this step 609, RNC is according to the mapping relations indication information of storage, the up channel of the carrier wave correspondence that the carrier wave indication information that finds the base station to report is indicated, and based on the stored binding relationship indication information, find the down channel that has binding relationship with this up channel, and, find the carrier wave of setting up this down channel further according to the mapping relations indication information.Based on above-mentioned explanation to step 604, binding relationship between this up channel and the corresponding down channel is not also known in the base station, therefore RNC sends to the base station with downlink data, the carrier wave that also needs the base station should be used is indicated to the base station according to the indicating mode that sets in advance, indicate according to this by the base station, use corresponding down channel and carrier wave, downlink data is sent.
Step 610, terminal equipment are monitored the down channel that has binding relationship with the employed up channel of this terminal equipment according to the transfer resource indication information of storing in the step 605, continue to receive the downlink data that network side issues.
The downlink data that terminal equipment can issue from selected HS-DSCH monitoring network side is as configuration information etc.
Above-mentioned Fig. 6 flow process can finish.
In sum, in the embodiment of the invention, by network side configuration transfer resource indication information, and this information indicated to terminal equipment, by terminal equipment after receiving the transfer resource indication information, the selected transfer resource that communicates with network side of being used for, utilize selected transfer resource to communicate by letter with network side, thereby, under as the enhancing CELL-FACH state in the communication system of N frequencies such as HSAP evolution system or multicarrier, can realize that terminal equipment sends data by the up channel of determining to network side, correspondingly, can monitor the information that network side issue from the down channel of determining, promptly realize communicating by letter between terminal equipment and the network side.Technical scheme based on the embodiment of the invention provides in the HSAP evolution system, can allow to dispose different up channels such as RACH simultaneously on different carrier waves, or dispose different down channels such as HS-DSCH simultaneously on different carrier waves.
