Description

Method and device for realizing semi-continuous physical resource allocation

Technical Field

The present invention relates to the field of mobile communications technologies, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for implementing semi-persistent physical resource allocation.

Background

With the development of mobile communication technology, a High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) technology is introduced in R7(Release 7, version 7) in a 1.28Mcps TDD (Time Division Duplex) system; the HSUPA technique is divided into scheduled transmission and non-scheduled transmission, wherein the flow of scheduled transmission is shown in fig. 1, and includes the following steps:

a. a UE (User Equipment, also called User terminal) has Uplink enhanced data in a cache to wait for transmission, and sends a scheduling request through an E-RUCCH (E-DCH Random access Uplink control channel ) to request for scheduling resources;

b. node B (base station) carries out resource scheduling according to the received scheduling request information and sends resource permission information to UE on E-AGCH (E-DCH Absolute Grant Channel, E-DCH Absolute permission Channel);

c. the UE selects an enhanced Transport format combination (E-TFC) according to the received resource scheduling permission information, selects a proper TBS (Transport Block Size) and a modulation mode, codes and modulates the TBS and then sends Uplink enhanced data on an E-PUCH (E-DCH Physical Uplink Channel );

d. node B decodes the uplink enhanced data received on E-PUCH Channel, obtains ACK/NACK information according to CRC check, and maps the ACK/NACK information to E-HICH (E-DCH HARQ acknowledgement Indicator Channel ) after coding and feeds back to the UE;

thus, the UE completes data transmission in a scheduling transmission process; in step B, Node B performs resource scheduling according to the received scheduling request message, and sends resource grant message on E-AGCH, where as shown in fig. 2, the information carried in the E-AGCH channel includes:

PRRI (Power Resource Related Information) (5bits), which represents the Power Resource permission that the Node B schedules to the UE;

CRRI (Code Resource Related Information) (5bits), which indicates the spreading Code used by E-PUCH, usually has a valid value of 0-30;

TRRI (Timeslot Resource Related Information) (5bits), 5bits indicating slot 1 to slot 5, respectively;

RDI (Resource Duration Indicator) (3bits) for indicating the number of TTIs (Transmission Time Interval) in which the Resource grant is valid and Interval information; wherein, whether an RDI domain exists on the E-AGCH is pre-configured and informs the UE through a high-level signaling; if the RDI domain is configured, the UE decodes according to the format with RDI in FIG. 2; if the configuration is not available, the UE decodes according to the mode without RDI when decoding;

ECSN (E-AGCH Cyclic Sequence Number ) (3bits) for assisting E-AGCH outer loop power control and counting BLER (Block error rate) of the E-AGCH;

an EI (E-HICH Indicator) (2bits) for indicating an E-HICH carrying downlink feedback information;

an ENI (E-UCCH Number Indicator, E-UCCH Number indication) (3bits) which represents the Number of the transmitted E-UCCHs and is at most 8;

wherein, if the base station sends the E-AGCH once to allocate resources of one TTI to the UE, the UE must correctly receive the scheduling permission of the base station on the E-AGCH before sending uplink data through the E-PUCH each time. Meanwhile, the base station can also allocate uplink physical resources of a plurality of TTIs for the UE at one time by using the 3-bit RDI information on the E-AGCH.

In the research of HSPA +, in order to support the services such as VoIP, which frequently send small data packets and have high requirement on time delay, and reduce the overhead of control channel E-AGCH, it is proposed to introduce a method for allocating semi-persistent physical resources to the UE by the base station, i.e. the base station allocates persistent physical resources to the UE by sending resource grant information once through the E-AGCH, and the allocated persistent resources are effective until the base station sends the E-AGCH again.

However, based on the conventional control channel format, the base station can allocate resources of 8 consecutive TTIs, or resources of 4 intervals of 1 or 3 TTIs to the UE at most once by sending the resource grant information through the E-AGCH, and none of the resources can satisfy the requirement of allocating persistent resources for transmission of VoIP.

Detailed Description

The basic idea of the invention is to allocate long-term effective physical resources to the UE based on the new channel structure of the E-AGCH, so that the semi-continuous physical resources allocated to the UE by the base station are continuously effective before the base station sends the E-AGCH for reconfiguration or is recovered, thereby avoiding the repeated use of the E-AGCH for allocating the physical resources to the UE during scheduling transmission and reducing the control channel overhead of the system.

The technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention; it is to be understood that the described embodiments are merely exemplary of the invention, and not restrictive of the full scope of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a method for implementing semi-persistent physical resource allocation, as shown in fig. 3, the method includes:

step 301: receiving resource permission information on an E-AGCH channel, and determining whether the resource permission information can indicate allocation of long-term physical resources;

specifically, if the resource grant information carried on the E-AGCH channel can allocate long-term physical resources, it indicates that the format of the E-AGCH channel is a new format different from a conventional channel; however, in the present embodiment, compared to the conventional channel format, the length of the information carried on the channel is not changed, and only the information carried on the channel and the meaning of the information (indicated) are changed; in the embodiment of the present invention, the channel format is identified as a new format different from a conventional channel format by the following ways, but is not limited to the following ways:

1) redefining the meanings of part of information bits in the resource permission information in advance; for example, it is specified that CRRI ═ 11111 'or TRRI ═ 00000' represents a new format; the specification RDI ═ 111 'or EI ═ 11' denotes a new E-AGCH format; or, when the PRRI is all 1, the new E-AGCH format is represented;

2) when the format of the E-AGCH is new, the CRC of the E-AGCH is reversed; the CRC inversion refers to XOR the generated CRC bits with 1 respectively, namely the original bit is 0 and is 1 after inversion, the original bit is 1 and is 0 after inversion;

correspondingly, the embodiment of the invention also provides a plurality of ways for judging the new format, which specifically comprise the following steps:

1) after the UE correctly receives the resource permission information on the E-AGCH channel, firstly analyzing the resource permission information, then judging whether the CRRI domain, the RDI domain, the EI domain or the PRRI is all 1 or not, or whether the TRRI is all 0 or not, if so, indicating that the channel format is a new format, determining that the resource permission information can indicate to allocate long-term physical resources;

2) after receiving the information on the E-AGCH, the UE respectively uses the normal CRC and the reverse CRC for decoding, and if the reverse CRC is successfully decoded and indicates that the channel format is a new format, the UE can determine that the resource permission information can indicate to allocate long-term physical resources;

in addition, the resource grant information includes a resource allocation cycle indication and grant information for indicating physical timeslot and code channel resources: wherein,

1) a network side configures a plurality of resource allocation cycles for UE in advance through RRC signaling, and when physical resources are allocated for the UE through an E-AGCH, the resource allocation cycle borne by the network side indicates the resource allocation cycle of the UE; after the UE receives the E-AGCH, determining a first allocated TTI according to the timing relation between the E-AGCH and the E-PUCH, and then determining a TTI where the subsequently allocated resources are located according to the resource allocation period indication; it should be noted that the timing relationship between the E-AGCH and the E-PUCH has been defined in the prior art, and as shown in fig. 4, there is an offset of nE-AGCH between the E-AGCH and the E-PUCH, and this offset must be greater than or equal to 6 slots; therefore, after the UE correctly receives and decodes the E-AGCH, the TTI where the E-PUCH is allocated and the specific timeslot and code channel can be obtained according to the timing relationship, which is not described herein again;

of course, the resource allocation period indication may also be combined with the resource allocation offset during different periods, i.e. the resource grant information may also include the resource allocation offset; the base station can adjust TTI where the resource allocation is in different periods by sending E-AGCH;

in addition, when the UE finishes the service and needs to release the E-PUCH physical resource allocated to the UE, the resource allocation period may also be used to indicate a resource release indication, that is, the UE is no longer allocated with resources, but is required to release the previously allocated persistent resources; correspondingly, when the UE correctly receives the E-AGCH, the physical resource allocated by the base station before is released;

2) the authorization information for indicating the physical timeslot and code channel resources in the embodiment of the present invention may be CRRI and TRRI in the resource permission information, or may be the number of the physical resource block; the serial number of the physical resource block can occupy bits occupied by CRRI or TRRI carried by a traditional channel; and the corresponding relation between the number of the physical resource block and the specific physical time slot and code channel is notified to the UE by adopting a predefined mode or a method configured by RRC signaling at the network side, which is not repeated herein;

in addition, as an improvement of the conventional channel format, the resource grant information carried on the new channel format in the embodiment of the present invention may further include one or more of ECSN, ENI, or modulation scheme indication.

Step 302: and if the resource permission information can indicate that the physical resource of the long term is allocated, determining the TTI where the physical resource for transmitting the uplink enhanced data is located by using the resource allocation cycle indication in the resource permission information.

In the embodiment of the present invention, several ways of determining the TTI in which the physical resource for transmitting the uplink enhanced data is located are proposed, but not limited to this; the following are specific examples:

embodiment 2 of the present invention, a new E-AGCH format of 23 bits (excluding RDI field) is used as an example, as shown in fig. 5, where the number of bits in each information field is only an example, and the number of bits in ENI may be changed, for example, reduced or completely removed, and they are used to increase the number of bits of physical resource numbers; or the E-AGCH includes RDI, and bits of the RDI are used to increase the resource allocation cycle indication, and the like, which is not described in detail in this embodiment;

1) firstly, the UE receives the corresponding relation between the physical resource number, the physical time slot and the code channel configured by the network side through the RRC signaling, and the corresponding relation between the resource allocation period indication and the physical resource allocation period; wherein,

as for the corresponding relation between the physical resource number and the physical time slot and code channel, 2 can be configured at most^NN is the bit number of the physical resource number on the E-AGCH; and the number of the physical resource allocation periods is in phase with the resource allocation period indication on the E-AGCHSimilar corresponding relations, for example, the physical resource allocation periods are 4, 20ms (4 subframes), 80ms (16 subframes), 160ms (32 subframes) and indicate resource recovery, and are respectively indicated by using 2-bit resource allocation period indications on the E-AGCH;

2) after the UE correctly receives the E-AGCH, firstly judging whether the CRRI domain is all 1, if so, indicating that the channel format is a new format, determining that the resource permission information can indicate to allocate long-term physical resources, and then determining the physical time slot and code channel allocated by the base station at this time according to the 5-bit physical resource number behind the CRRI and the corresponding relation configured by the RRC signaling and the physical resources at the network side; if not, indicating that the channel format is the traditional format, and then adopting the traditional mode to carry out subsequent resource allocation, which is not described again here;

3) then obtaining the period of the current resource allocation according to the resource allocation period indication; for example, if the resource allocation period indication resolves to '00', it indicates that the resource allocation period is 20ms (4 subframes), '01' indicates that the resource allocation period is 80ms (16 subframes), and '10' indicates that the resource allocation period is 160ms (32 subframes); determining the resource of the first TTI according to the timing relation between the E-AGCH and the E-PUCH, and determining the TTI where the subsequently allocated physical resource is located according to the indicated resource allocation cycle; if the base station has allocated the continuously valid physical resource to the UE before, the UE stops data transmission on the previously allocated physical resource, and starts uplink data transmission on the physical resource allocated by the base station this time.

It should be noted that if the resource allocation period indication is resolved to '11', which indicates resource reclamation, the UE should release the previously allocated long-term valid physical resource, and at this time, the UE stops data transmission on the previously allocated physical resource.

In embodiment 3 of the present invention, as shown in fig. 6, the total information bit number of the E-AGCH is kept unchanged, the meaning of the RDI is redefined, and a new E-AGCH format is represented when the RDI is defined to be all 1;

1) firstly, the UE receives a resource allocation period corresponding to a resource allocation period indication configured by the network side through RRC signaling in advance; for example, a physical resource with only one TTI being valid is allocated to the UE, the resource allocation Period is Period1 ═ 4 subframes, the resource allocation Period is 80ms (16 subframes), and the like;

2) after the UE receives the E-AGCH, whether the RDI is all 1 is judged, if so, the resource permission information can be determined to indicate that the channel format is a new format to be allocated with long-term physical resources, and at the moment, the meanings indicated by the CRRI and the TRRI are not changed, so that the UE can determine the physical time slot and the code channel allocated by the base station at this time according to the CRRI and the TRRI;

3) then, a resource allocation Period of this time is obtained according to the resource allocation Period indication, for example, if the resource allocation Period indication is analyzed to be '0000', it indicates that only one TTI effective physical resource is allocated to the UE, '0001' indicates that the resource allocation Period is Period1 ═ 4 subframes, '0010' indicates that the resource allocation Period is 80ms (16 subframes), and the like; determining the resource of the first allocated TTI according to the corresponding relation between the E-AGCH and the E-PUCH, and determining the TTI where the subsequently allocated physical resource is located according to the indicated resource allocation cycle; if the base station has allocated the continuously valid physical resource to the UE before, the UE stops data transmission on the previously allocated physical resource, and starts uplink data transmission on the physical resource allocated by the base station this time.

It should be noted that if the resource allocation period indication is resolved to '1111', which indicates resource recovery, the UE may release the previously allocated long-term valid physical resource and stop data transmission on the previously allocated physical resource.

In addition, if the resource permission information further includes a modulation mode indication, the UE transmits uplink data on the allocated resource according to the modulation mode indicated by the base station.

In embodiment 4 of the present invention, as shown in fig. 7, the total information bit number of the E-AGCH is kept unchanged, and the CRC is inverted to indicate a new E-AGCH format; representing a resource allocation period indication and an offset K using RDI and/or EI fields; of course, besides the bits representing the special E-AGCH format, the information carried by the E-AGCH may also include a power resource related indication, a physical resource related indication, ECSN, and ENI, which are not described herein again;

1) predefining a meaning of an offset K; for example, the number of the absolute delay offset TTIs of the TTI corresponding to the first allocated uplink physical resource is indicated as compared with the TTI determined by the timing relationship in the prior art, or the unit of the delay offset TTIs is N TTIs (the former may be equivalent to the unit of the delay offset TTI is N-1 TTIs); or the network side notifies, through RRC signaling, that the TTI of the first allocated uplink physical resource is offset by TTI unit N from the delay of the TTI determined by the timing relationship in the prior art, for example, the unit is period 1.

2) The UE receives a resource allocation period corresponding to a resource allocation period indication configured by the network side through RRC signaling in advance; for example, the resource allocation Period is Period1 ═ 4 subframes, the resource allocation Period is Period2 ═ 16 subframes, the resource allocation Period is Period2 ═ 32 subframes, and the allocated resources are retracted;

3) after the UE receives the E-AGCH, the UE respectively uses CRC non-inversion and inversion for decoding, if the CRC inversion decoding is correct, the channel format is a new format, the resource permission information can be determined to indicate to allocate long-term physical resources, then the TTI where the first physical resource is allocated is determined according to the offset K, specifically, the TTI determined according to the timing relationship in the prior art is delayed backwards by N x K TTIs, and then the resource interval allocated by the base station at this time is determined according to the resource allocation cycle indication; at this time, the meanings indicated by the CRRI and the TRRI are not changed, so that the UE may determine the physical timeslot and code channel allocated by the base station according to the CRRI and the TRRI;

it should be noted that if the resource allocation period indication is resolved to a preset specific value, for example, '11', indicating resource recovery, the UE releases the previously allocated long-term valid physical resource and stops data transmission on the previously allocated physical resource.

It can be seen that, by adopting the method of the embodiment of the present invention, the long-term effective physical resource is allocated to the UE based on the new E-AGCH channel structure, so that the semi-continuous physical resource allocated by the base station to the UE is continuously effective before the base station sends the E-AGCH reconfiguration or recovers the allocated long-term physical resource, thereby avoiding allocating the physical resource to the UE through the E-AGCH for multiple times during scheduling transmission, and reducing the overhead of the control channel of the system.
