Random access channel distributing method
Technical field
The present invention relates to the communications field, relate more specifically to a kind of random access channel distributing method.
Background technology
RACH is generally used for user terminal to carry out service request, position and moves the transmission of back to signalings such as network lastest imformations when start-up logging.
At present, realize that the core concept that inserts at random is: when remaining between the receiving-transmitting sides to deliver a letter the breath transmission, transmit leg takies Radio Resource randomly and sends information to be passed to the recipient.Wherein, Radio Resource can be frequency resource, time interval resource and code source etc.Its concrete implementation method is: all information to transmitting in the RACH are classified; Different information classifications has the different code word set; RACH has certain Radio Resource, and this resource is further divided, and obtains random access sub-channel.
Here; Transmit leg is user terminal normally, and the recipient is the base station normally, and user terminal is selected a code word randomly according to the classification of information to be passed from corresponding codeword set; And according to this code word generation solicitation message; When allowing to send this application message, user terminal is selected a random access sub-channel randomly, sends this application message.
After the base station receives this application message from random access sub-channel; Utilize code word and this application message in the codeword set to carry out coherent detection, obtain the code word that user terminal uses, then; The base station generates acknowledge message according to this code word again; Return to user terminal, this acknowledge message can be the message that expression allows to send or refuse transmission, and the previous code word of selecting of user terminal utilization oneself can obtain the affirmation message of base station.If allow to send, then user terminal sends its message to be passed; If refusal sends, then user terminal finishes random access procedure.
At present, the advantage of RACH is to possess the ability that guarantees certain service quality (QoS).Promptly; User terminal message transmitted classification will be judged according to the code word that user terminal uses in the base station after obtaining the solicitation message of user terminal, when Radio Resource is not enough; The base station can be returned refusal to the low user of priority and send message, makes it not take too much Radio Resource.
The continuous progress of wireless communication technology causes the market demand also can change, and this can absorb these new technology through the process of continuous evolution with regard to requiring standard, satisfies new demand simultaneously.Through the process of this evolution, standard and the system that realizes according to this standard not only can be through its vitality of smooth upgrade continuity, and the existing investment of protection user is more manyed better service but also can provide than old system.IS95 is to the evolution of CDMA1X; The evolution of the long evolving system of 3GPP (LTE); Micro-wave access to global intercommunication (WorldwideInteroperability for Microwave Access, be called for short WiMAX) all is the example of standard evolution from 16d to 16e and to evolution of 16m or the like.
Under original system, user terminal utilizes single antenna to send information to be passed at RACH.Consider that evolution system on the original system basis need support the sub-district bigger than original system to cover; Thereby for Cell Edge User with many antenna capabilities; If adopt single antenna to send information to be passed; Its access signal quality that arrives base station side is relatively poor, and this can influence this user's access efficiency, even can't insert.
In addition, when having the base station of two communication systems in an area, if evolution system needs compatible original system, then the accidental access method of evolution system must consider that the terminal of original system can normally insert at random.
