Abstract

The invention relates to a downlink data packet transmitting method, a system and an evolution base station. In the embodiment of the downlink data packet transmitting method, a downlink data packet comprises a data packet transmitted by a source evolution base station eNodeB, and among the data packets transmitted by the source eNodeB, the data packet processed by the source eNodeB by a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) is set as the data packet of first class, comprising the following steps: the source eNodeB sets the PDCP SN in the message head of the data packet of first class; and the source eNodeB transmits the data packet of first class to a target eNodeB. By setting the PDCP SN in the message head of the data packet, the embodiment of the invention leads the data packet message to carry the PDCP SN when being switched between the eNodeBs (namely the switching on an X2 interface) without using the mode of expanding the head, thus reducing the processing load of network nodes and eNodeB nodes in an LTE network, and enhancing the processing capacity and performance of the whole network.

Description

Downlink data packet forwarding method, system and evolution base station
Technical field
The present invention relates to wireless communication field, relate in particular to retransmission method, system and the evolution base station of downlink data packet.
Background technology
Universal mobile telecommunications system (Universal Mobile Telecommunication System is called for short UMTS) is a kind of third generation cordless communication network technical standard of 3GPP tissue definition.The UMTS network is made up of core net and Access Network, and core net comprises circuit domain and packet domain, and circuit domain provides based on Circuit-switched business (for example speech business), and packet domain provides the business based on packet switching (for example Internet visit).The terminal that the mobile subscriber uses is UE (User Equipment).
Fig. 1 is the structural representation of existing UMTS network, core net (Core Network, be called for short CS) by packet switching (Packet Switch, be called for short PS) territory and circuit switching (Circuit Switch, be called for short CS) the territory composition, the PS territory is by Serving GPRS Support Node (Serving GPRS Support Node, be called for short SGSN), Gateway GPRS Support Node (Gateway GPRS Support Node, be called for short GGSN) and attaching position register (Home Location Register, be called for short HLR) form, core network domain is by MSC, VLR, GMSC equipment is formed, Access Network is made up of radio network controller (Radio NetworkController is called for short RNC) and NodeB.Each RNC connects some NodeB, and each SGSN connects some RNC.Communicate by the Uu interface between UE and the NodeB, communicate by the Iu interface between Access Network and the core net, core net is connected with External Network.
In the superincumbent UMTS network, the over-the-air protocol stack is at RNC, guarantee the lossless migration of packet, the packet of confirming without UE of buffer memory and do not have enough time to carry out PDCP (Packet Data Convergence Protocol in must transfer source RNC, abbreviation PDCP) packet of handling is to Target RNC, among the RNC of source in the packet of confirming without UE of buffer memory owing to passed through PDCP and handle therefore and have corresponding PDCP SN, the packet of not handling through PDCP among the RNC of source does not have corresponding PDCP SN.Because UE is according to the orderly reception packet of PDCP SN, therefore, PDCP SN in the packet that Target RNC need forward according to the source RNC of its reception does not carry out PDCP SN numbering to remaining packet of handling through PDCP, with guarantee the PDCP layer can and UE between realize data sync.
Long Term Evolution (Long Term Evolution, be called for short LTE) flat wireless access network (the Radio Access Network of system's employing, be called for short RAN) structure, cancelled radio network controller (RadioNetwork Control, be called for short RNC), the purpose of LTE provides a kind of network cheaply that can reduce time delay, raising user data rate, improved power system capacity and covering, uses PS territory business, and bearer network all is the IP carrying.
Fig. 2 is the structural representation of existing LTE Radio Access Network, and the LTE wireless access network comprises that evolved NodeB (evolved-NodeB is to call eNodeB in the following text) and evolved bag core (Evolved PackerCore is called for short EPC) constitute.ENodeB adopts grid (mesh) mode to interconnect by X2 interface by the main network element evolution of NodeB, the RNC in R6 stage between the eNodeB.Interface between eNodeB and the EPC is called the S1 interface.EPC comprises mobile chain of command entity (Mobility Management Entity is called for short MME) and user entity (SAE GateWay is called for short SGW).MME is responsible for the mobile management of chain of command as the chain of command part, comprises the management of user's context and mobile status, distributing user temporary identity sign etc.; SGW is responsible for initiating paging for downlink data under the idle condition as user's face portion, and IP bearing parameter and the interior routing iinformation of network etc. are preserved in management.Between MME and the SGW is netted the connection, and promptly a MME can control several SGW well.The S1 interface is supported the EPC and the eNodeB annexation of multi-to-multi.At LET structure shown in Figure 2, usually the repertoire of the RNC in the existing network is transferred to eNodeB, make eNodeB have whole Radio interface protocols stacks.The evolution architecture user face protocol stack of this kind two node layers comprises UE user face protocol stack, eNodeB user face protocol stack and SGW user face protocol stack as shown in Figure 3.Communicate by the Uu interface between UE and the eNodeB, communicate by the S1 interface between eNodeB and the SGW.
The SGW user face protocol stack comprises: GPRS Tunnel Protocol user face (being called for short GTP-U) layer, User Datagram Protoco (UDP)/Internet protocol (UDP/IP) layer, L2 layer and L1 layer.
ENodeB User Agreement stack comprises: Radio interface protocols stack and S1 protocol stack of the interface.The Radio interface protocols stack comprises: PDCP (being called for short PDCP) layer, radio link control (being called for short RLC) layer, medium access control (being called for short MAC) layer, L1 layer; The S1 protocol stack of the interface comprises: GTP-U layer, UDP/IP layer, L2 layer and L1 layer.
The UE user face protocol stack comprises: PDCP layer, rlc layer, MAC layer and L1 layer.
Above-described L2 layer is meant the layer 2 in the layered protocol, i.e. data link layer is as frame relay, ATM or wireless data link layer etc.; Above-described L1 is meant the layer 1 in the layered protocol, i.e. physical layer is as physical layers such as E1, optical fiber, microwave transmissions.
User face protocol stack above adopting, the over-the-air protocol stack is all at eNodeB, guarantee the lossless migration of packet, the packet of confirming without UE of buffer memory and not having enough time carries out packet that PDCP handles to target eNode B in must transfer source eNodeB, among the eNodeB of source in the packet of confirming without UE of buffer memory owing to passed through PDCP and handle therefore and have corresponding PDCP SN, the packet of not handling through PDCP among the eNodeB of source does not have corresponding PDCP SN.Because UE is according to the orderly reception packet of PDCP SN, therefore, PDCP SN in the packet that target eNode B need forward according to the source eNodeB of its reception does not carry out PDCP SN numbering to remaining packet of handling through PDCP, with guarantee the PDCP layer can and UE between realize data sync.
In the prior art, no matter be to transmit the corresponding PDCP SN of packet in the wireless UMTS network between the RNC, when still transmitting packet correspondence PDCP SN in the LTE network between the eNodeB, by in packet, carrying the PDCP SN of this packet correspondence in the mode of extended head.This method can increase the processing load of network node, causes the decline of overall network performance.
