Radio network controller obtains the method for Connection Frame Number at high speed descending sharing channel
Technical field
The present invention relates to that frame number obtains technology in the 3-G (Generation Three mobile communication system), be particularly related to radio network controller (RNC, Radio Network Controller) at high speed descending sharing channel (HS-DSCH, High-Speed Downlink Shared Channel) obtains the method for Connection Frame Number (CFN, Connection FrameNumber).
Background technology
Fig. 1 is universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS in the prior art, Universal MobileTelecommunications System) basic structure schematic diagram, as shown in Figure 1, universal land radio access web (UTRAN among the UMTS, Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network) by Radio Network System (RNS, Radio Network System) form, this RNS links to each other by Iu interface and core net (CN, Core Network); A RNS comprises a RNC and one or more Node B (Node B), and each Node B links to each other with RNC by Iub interface; RNC between the RNS links to each other by the Iur interface.
As an end user device (UE, when User Equipment) business is set up in request in the sub-district, UMTS can be in conjunction with the ability of sub-district, UE place and the using priciple of channel type, for this UE distributes a kind of suitable channel type, comprise: paging channel (PCH, Paging Channel), forward access channel (FACH, Forward Access Channel), dedicated channel (DCH, Dedicated Channel) and HS-DSCH channel etc.Wherein, on the HS-DSCH channel, regulation among the 3GPP TS25.435 V7.9.0 (2008-09): when being Class1, the RNC support node is synchronous when HS-DSCH data frame type (HS-DSCH DATA FRAME TYPE), but does not support transmitting synchronous; When the HS-DSCH data frame type was type 2, neither support node was synchronous, did not also support transmitting synchronous; When the HS-DSCH data frame type was type 3, both support node was synchronous, also supported transmitting synchronous.
RNC can finish timing relationship with Node B synchronously by node, and can calculate roughly CFN according to vertical shift, the process of specifically obtaining CFN is: RNC sends descendant node (DL Node Synchronization) frame synchronously to Node B earlier, Node B sends upstream node (ULNode Synchronization) frame synchronously to RNC then, after RNC receives the upstream node synchronization frame, node frame number (BFN according to vertical shift and upstream node synchronization frame, Node B Frame Number) calculates CFN roughly, CFN then is RNC by sending downlink transmission synchronous control frame accurately, the information acquisition of the downlink transmission synchronous response of returning according to Node B.
After if UE begins initiation business or direct-cut operation, its Signaling Radio Bearer (SRB, SignalingRadio Bearer) and professional radio bearer all be carried on the HS-DSCH channel, if the HS-DSCH data frame type is HS-DSCH DATA FRAME TYPE 2, stipulate according to agreement, this moment, neither support node was synchronous, did not also support transmitting synchronous, so RNC obtains less than CFN; If the HS-DSCH data frame type is HS-DSCH DATA FRAME TYPE 1, stipulate according to agreement, this moment, a support node was synchronous, do not support transmitting synchronous, so though RNC can obtain CFN synchronously according to node, but the CFN that obtains is inaccurate, and can not adjust in real time according to the response of Node B, and the CFN that RNC is safeguarded does not meet actual value.
In RNC, CFN mainly contains following two kinds of functions:
1) RNC fills in when channels such as descending PCH, FACH and DCH send Frame and carries CFN, notice Node B sends to terminal UE at corresponding C FN, and UE is at up Random Access Channel (RACH, Random Access Channel), obtain the CFN of corresponding data in the channel such as DCH, so that carry out media access control layer (MAC, the deciphering of transparent mode radio bearer Medium Access Control) (TMRB, Transparent Mode Radio Bearer) waits other processing;
When 2) RNC initiates the radio configuration change, need notice Node B, UE carry out coming into force of radio configuration simultaneously at identical CFN.
If RNC obtains less than CFN, the CFN that perhaps gets access to is inaccurate, to cause above-mentioned second kind of function can't realize or can't accurately realize, that is: when follow-up radio configuration changes, the time that RNC, NodeB and UE radio configuration come into force may be different, thereby cause losing and the failure of flow process of data, have a strong impact on the performance of system, reduce offering quality of services for users.

Step 10, RNC set up the HS-DSCH channel according to the data service that UE initiates.
Step 20, RNC send downlink transmission synchronous control frame on the HS-DSCH channel;
In this step, RNC carries CFN in downlink transmission synchronous control frame.
Step 30, receive this downlink transmission synchronous control frame after, Node B is according to HS-DSCH channel data frame type, sends downlink transmission synchronous response to RNC;
In this step, the value of the CFN that carries in the downlink transmission synchronous response is the CFN of downlink transmission synchronous control frame, and when HS-DSCH channel data frame type was Class1 or type 2, the value of TOA field was in this downlink transmission synchronous response: TOA=(CFN of the current C FN-downlink transmission synchronous control frame of Node B) * Frame length; When HS-DSCH channel data frame type was type 3, the value of TOA field was provided with according to the time of reception window of Node B configuration in this downlink transmission synchronous response.
The principle of aforementioned calculation TOA is: the side-play amount of obtaining the CFN that carries in the current C FN of Node B and the downlink transmission synchronous control frame earlier; According to Frame length, obtain time difference again.
Step 40, RNC calculate the CFN of the current maintenance of RNC according to this downlink transmission synchronous response after receiving downlink transmission synchronous response on the HS-DSCH channel;
In this step, RNC is according to the equivalent CFN that calculates current maintenance of CFN, the TOA of downlink transmission synchronous response, the CFN+TOA/ Frame length in the CFN=downlink transmission synchronous response of current maintenance.
The process of the CFN of the current maintenance of aforementioned calculation is actual to be exactly the inverse operation that TOA calculates, its principle is: earlier by RNC according to TOA value in the downlink transmission synchronous response and Frame length, obtain the side-play amount of the CFN that carries in the current C FN of Node B and the downlink transmission synchronous control frame; Then, according to the CFN in the downlink transmission synchronous response, obtain the CFN of the current maintenance of RNC.
