Background technology
HSUPA (High Speed Uplink Packet Access, the High Speed Uplink Packet access) be 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Project, the 3G (Third Generation) Moblie partnership projects) a kind of up enhanced scheme that proposes the strategy such as shares to reach the maximization uplink throughput by code channel resource, power resource.
The transfer of data of HSUPA is divided into scheduled transmission and non-scheduled transmission.The flow process of scheduled transmission is as shown in Figure 1:
Have uplink strengthening data etc. to be sent in a, the UE buffer memory, UE sends E-RUCCH (E-DCH Random access Uplink Control Channel, E-DCH access ascending control channel at random), the request scheduling resource;
Scheduling of resource is carried out according to the dispatch request information of receiving in b, base station, and in the upper resource license information that sends of E-AGCH (E-DCH Absolute Grant Channel, E-DCH absolute grant channel);
C, UE are according to the resource scheduling information of receiving, strengthening transformat combination (E-TFC) selects, select suitable TBS (Transport Block Size, transmission block is big or small) and modulation system, encode afterwards, modulate, in the upper uplink strengthening data that sends of E-PUCH (E-DCH Physical Uplink Channel, E-DCH physical uplink channel);
Receive after the E-PUCH d, base station, the processing of decoding, obtain ACK/NACK information according to CRC check, coding is mapped on the E-HICH (E-DCH HARQ acknowledge Indicator Channel, E-DCH HARQ answering indication signal channel) and feeds back to this UE afterwards;
Like this, UE has just finished the data transmission of a scheduled transmission process.
Wherein, the E-HICH physical channel of feedback is by 2 bit EI on the E-AGCH (E-HICH Indicator, E-HICH indication) indication.Specifically, before transfer of data, network side is by RRC (Radio Resource Control, Radio Resource control) signaling is that UE disposes maximum four E-HICH, and be numbered respectively, indicate physical resource and training sequence (midamble) assignment information of each bar E-HICH.The base station indicates this time transmission which the bar E-HICH in four is fed back by the EI on the E-AGCH.
ACK/NACK coding method on the E-HICH is the orthogonal sequence XOR with the ACK of 1 bit or nack message and 80 bit long.Wherein, orthogonal sequence is obtained by E-PUCH shared physical resource and a fixing randomisation process.Specifically, agreement has been stipulated the orthogonal matrix C80 on 80 rank, when ACK/NACK encodes, certain delegation's 80 long sequence of taking-up from this orthogonal matrix (C80,
R ', n), wherein, the r ' of r ' expression 80 rank orthogonal matrixes is OK.R ' is obtained by a randomisation process by r.(MidambleCode), wherein SFN ' is system's subframe numbers of E-HICH to r '=P for r, SFN ', and MidambleCode is the basic Midamble code sequence of residential quarter appointment, and P is a pseudo random sequence.
R is logical resource label ID, has mapping relations with the shared physical resource of E-PUCH:
Wherein:
t
0For distributing the last time slot in the time slot, i.e. maximum timeslot number (1,2 .., 5);
q
0Be t
0Minimum channel code in the time slot number (1,2 ..., Q
0);
Q
0Be t
0The spread spectrum coefficient of time slot minimum channel code number employing.
The mapping relations of logical resource label ID and the shared physical resource of E-PUCH as shown in Figure 2.
For example, the shared physical resource of E-PUCH is the code channel of the 1st SF=4 of time slot 1 and time slot 2, and then corresponding r should be 16.
For resource utilization and the uplink throughput that improves system, can utilize empty minute technology, give different users with identical up E-PUCH physical source distributing.Utilize the isolation in its space, these users performance separately is guaranteed.Such as, can be that a plurality of users send dispatching command by E-AGCH respectively, and for they distribute identical E-PUCH physical resource.Described E-AGCH form can be form of the prior art.In order further to improve performance, can also change the E-AGCH form, carry the information of midamble window thereon, be the different midamble window of the user assignment of sharing E-PUCH resource, thereby further improve channel estimating performance and link performance.
Yet according to the feedback system of scheduled transmission in the prior art, during for certain scheduled transmission user feedback, the feedback information employed orthogonal sequence of encoding is determined by the E-PUCH physical resource.If the identical E-PUCH physical resource that has been a plurality of user assignments then can't use identical E-HICH to feed back respectively for these users simultaneously, thereby cause empty minute technology can't be applied to the HSUPA system.

Embodiment
In order to make those skilled in the art person understand better the scheme of the embodiment of the invention, below in conjunction with drawings and embodiments the embodiment of the invention is described in further detail.
The feedback method of embodiment of the invention multi-user sharing physical resources, in the system of scheduled transmission, utilize empty minute technology, give different users with identical E-PUCH physical source distributing, make these user's sharing E-PUCH physical resources, when being a plurality of user feedback of sharing E-PUCH physical resource, use different orthogonal sequences that the feedback information of corresponding different user is encoded, and the feedback information after will encoding is mapped to the user who feeds back to correspondence on the same E-HICH; Perhaps use identical orthogonal sequence that the feedback information of corresponding different user is encoded, and the feedback information after will encoding is mapped to the user who feeds back to correspondence on the different E-HICH.Thereby make empty minute technology can be applied to better system, improve system physical resource utilization and uplink throughput.
Correspondingly, in user's side, for the situation of multiple users share E-PUCH physical resource, determine orthogonal sequence according to the announcement information of network side; After the E-PUCH physical resource of network side configuration sends uplink strengthening data, according to described orthogonal sequence the E-HICH that receives is decoded, obtain network side to receiving the feedback information of described uplink strengthening data.
As shown in Figure 3, be a kind of flow chart of the feedback method of embodiment of the invention multi-user sharing physical resources, may further comprise the steps:
Step 301, network side are the identical E-PUCH physical resources of a plurality of user assignments.
Step 302, according to the orthogonal sequence of each user among the definite corresponding described a plurality of users of the configuration information of network side, the orthogonal sequence that different user is corresponding is different.
The configuration information of network side can have multiple, and correspondingly, corresponding different configuration informations also can have various ways when determining each corresponding user orthogonal sequence.
Such as, network side is that described a plurality of user disposes respectively the orthogonal sequence side-play amount, like this, and just can be according to the orthogonal sequence of each user among described orthogonal sequence side-play amount and the definite corresponding described a plurality of users of described E-PUCH physical resource.Particularly, can determine an orthogonal sequence according to the mapping relations of E-PUCH physical resource and orthogonal sequence first, then on the basis of the sequence number of this orthogonal sequence, the side-play amount that adds configuration is determined the sequence number of the orthogonal sequence that uses, finds corresponding orthogonal sequence according to this sequence number again.
When concrete the application, described side-play amount can be disposed and notified to the base station by RNC (radio network controller), and notifies to the user by RRC (Radio Resource control), also can be disposed by the base station, and notify to the user by E-AGCH.When notifying the side-play amount of configuration to the user by the base station by E-AGCH, can increase at E-AGCH the information field of an orthogonal sequence sequence number skew.The base station when this user is dispatched, by this information field on the E-AGCH, the side-play amount of the orthogonal sequence that uses during indication feedback, and determine orthogonal sequence that should the user according to this side-play amount and for the E-PUCH physical resource of user assignment.

Further, during for this user feedback, whether use this side-play amount, the base station can be indicated to the user by the information on the physical control channel E-AGCH.For example, when the base station uses traditional E-AGCH form to dispatch, can adopt the mode of prior art to determine the orthogonal sequence that feedback is used; When form is dispatched, can determine orthogonal sequence and use new E-AGCH (explicit or implicit expression carries the information that this side-play amount is used in indication) when the base station according to this side-play amount.
For another example, network side is the sequence number of the different orthogonal sequence of described a plurality of user assignment, like this, directly obtains corresponding wherein each user's orthogonal sequence according to the sequence number of described orthogonal sequence.
When concrete the application, the sequence number of described orthogonal sequence can be distributed and informing base station by RNC, and notifies to the user by RRC (Radio Resource control).Also can be disposed by the base station, and notify to the user by E-AGCH.Particularly, can increase at E-AGCH the information field of an orthogonal sequence sequence number, the base station is when dispatching certain user, by this information field on the E-AGCH, the sequence number of the orthogonal sequence that uses when notifying this user feedback.
