Background technology
Move the developing direction that becomes modern communication technology with the broadband, 3GPP (3rd GenerationPartnership Project, third generation partner program) be devoted to the evolution of 3G system, target is development 3GPP wireless access technology towards high data rate, lowly postpones and optimize the evolution of packet data application direction.3GPP requires peak rate than LTE (Long Term Evolution, Long Term Evolution) system huge raising to be arranged in LTE-A (Long Term Evolution-Advanced, Long Term Evolution is senior) system, requires to reach descending 1Gbps, up 500Mbps.On single carrier wave, can't satisfy this demand, therefore introduce CA (Carrier Aggregation in the LTE-A system, carrier aggregation) technology, be under the same base station, continuous or discrete a plurality of carrier waves are concentrated in together, multicarrier is Terminal Service simultaneously when needed, so that required frequency resource to be provided, each carrier wave that participates in CA is called member carrier (Component Carrier, be called for short CC), each member carrier may be corresponding to a sub-district that can work alone, also may be corresponding to a carrier resource that can not work alone.Can both work under each CC for the terminal that guarantees LTE, each CC maximum is no more than 20MHz.The CA technology of LTE-A as shown in Figure 1, the LTE-A base station polymerization among Fig. 14 carrier waves.Transfer of data can be carried out with terminal simultaneously in the base station on 4 carrier waves, to improve throughput of system.In the LTE-A system, a common base station is administration one or more sub-districts (cell) down, and each sub-district can be regarded a member carrier as.
For the LTE-A terminal, can see four carrier waves simultaneously, network can be according to the requirement of customer service speed, and the resource of dispatching one or more carrier wave is this Terminal Service.For the LTE terminal, only can see having 4 sub-districts, their adjacent each other each other sub-districts.In order to make LTE terminal operate as normal, on each CC, need to broadcast the system information of this CC.
In the LTE system, the main contents of system information broadcast comprise:
Host system message block (MIB), major parameter has: downlink bandwidth, the configuration information of PHICH, System Frame Number (SFN);
System information block 1 (SIB1), main contents have: insert relevant information (PLMNID with the sub-district, TAC, cell ID or the like), the parameter relevant with cell selecting, maximum transmission power, band information, the schedule information of system information, TDD configuration parameter, the SI length of window, systemInfoVal terminal Tag etc.;
System information block 2 (SIB2), main contents comprise: access barred information, wireless resource configuration, terminal timer and some constant information, frequency information, MBSFN subframe configuration information, the information of synchro timer etc.;

System information block 10 (SIB10) carries the main notice that is used for early warning ETWS, comprises message identification numbers, sequence number, alarm type, alarm security information etc.;
System information block 11 (SIB11) carries the assistant notification that is used for early warning ETWS, comprises message identification numbers, sequence number, the segment information of alarm information, fragment number, section, data coding scheme etc.
In said system information, in the LTE system, the terminal of RRC_CONNECTED state will be carried out data transmit-receive, just must know the MIB of current area, SIB1 and SIB2 message.In the LTE-A system, under the base station a plurality of CC are arranged, consider the requirement of compatible LTE terminal, need to broadcast one on each CC and overlap independently system information, and the system information on each CC may be different: as frequency information, the configuration of PHICH etc.Therefore, the LTE-A terminal need be obtained each CC and go up up-to-date system information before a plurality of CC of use carry out transfer of data.
Carrier sense mechanism in the LTE system is: Fig. 2 is the structural representation of descending sub frame, wherein, each descending sub frame is made up of the OFDM symbol, preceding several OFDM symbols of descending sub frame are control character, be used for bearing downlink control signaling, the channel of bearing downlink control signaling is called the PDCCH channel.All the other OFDM symbols carry downlink datas, the physical layer channel of bearing downlink data is called the PDSCH channel.The control signaling comprises: to the schedule information of this descending sub frame and corresponding sub-frame of uplink and relevant HARQ information etc.Terminal determines whether distributed resource in corresponding subframe by the control signaling that receives descending sub frame.If distributed resource, terminal is according to the temporal frequency position of the indication acquisition resource of dispatch, the line data of going forward side by side transmitting-receiving.In the LTE system, each sub-district has only a descending carrier, so terminal only need be monitored a PDCCH and a PDSCH on the descending carrier.
In the LTE-A system, introduced the CA technology, a base station possible configuration a plurality of CC, N for example.The terminal of LTE-A may use M CC to carry out transfer of data simultaneously, and wherein M is smaller or equal to N.When the data volume of LTE-A terminal transmitting-receiving is bigger, need simultaneously in the enterprising line data transmission of many CC.This moment, terminal was monitored PDCCH and the PDSCH on a plurality of CC simultaneously.Under the little situation of terminal data amount, monitoring a plurality of CC has not simultaneously just had too many necessity.Stop to help terminal power saving to the receiving the decode of obsolete CC.For convenience of following description, CC or CC group that terminal is received the decode are defined as Anchor CC.
Therefore, the carrier sense mechanism in the LTE-A system is: generally, and PDCCH and PDSCH on the terminal monitoring Anchor CC; When mass data need be received and dispatched, the CC that network is being monitored by terminal sent control signaling to terminal, required terminal to increase the quantity of the CC that monitors; After terminal is received above-mentioned signaling, start the monitoring of corresponding CC; Network and terminal communicate on a plurality of CC.
Terminal has a precondition in the enterprising line data transmitting-receiving of CC: terminal need be known the up-to-date system information of this CC.But each CC only can broadcast the system information of this CC correspondence, and UE only can monitor Anchor CC before the control signaling of receiving the activation CC monitoring that network sends.This has just caused UE receiving when activating the control signaling that CC monitors, and may not know the up-to-date system information of the CC that is activated.
If terminal just begins to receive the system information on the corresponding CC after receiving that CC activates signaling, then before finishing the system information reception, terminal can not be on this CC transceive data.The transmission of system information is periodic, and the transmission cycle of MIB and each SIB is not waited from tens to the hundreds of millisecond.That is to say, after terminal receives that CC activates signaling, may need to read after the process through the system information of dozens or even hundreds of millisecond, could be in the enterprising line data transmitting-receiving of corresponding CC.As seen, if terminal after receiving that CC activates signaling, just begins to receive the system information on the corresponding CC,,, in the LTE-A system, introduced following system information monitoring mechanism in order to address this problem with introducing bigger time delay.
System information monitoring mechanism in the LTE-A system is: introduced the CA technology in the LTE-A system, the terminal of LTE-A is in order to receive and dispatch by rapid data on a plurality of CC, need after inserting the LTE-A sub-district or switching to new LTE-A sub-district, read the system information on the relevant CC immediately.And behind generation systems information-change on each CC, read the system information on this CC again.This mechanism requires the terminal of LTE-A can in time obtain system information Notification of Changes on each CC of current base station.
When terminal communicates with the base station on M CC simultaneously, need safeguard the recent systems information on these CC simultaneously, if monitor the system information of all CC simultaneously always, concerning UE, also there is no need, be unfavorable for terminal power saving.
The informing mechanism of the system information change in the LTE system is: except ETWS (Earthquake andTsunami Warning System, earthquake and tsunami warning system) outside the message, the change of system information can only take place in specific radio frames, and is definite by the modification cycle (modification period).In a modification cycle, system information may send repeatedly, and repeatedly the system information content of Fa Songing is identical.System information can only change after the border in the cycle of modification, and the boundary definition of revising the cycle is as follows: SFN mod m=0.Wherein, SFN is a System Frame Number, and m is the modification cycle, and unit is a radio frames.
When network need change all or part of system information, it at first needed to send " system information change indication " to terminal, and the notice terminal changes the system information that takes place, and notification procedure may need to continue a modification cycle.Revise the cycle at the next one, network just can send the system information after the renewal.Above-mentioned rule is system information change schematic diagram as shown in Figure 3.After receiving system information change indication, terminal is revised the system information after locating to read renewal of beginning in cycle immediately at the next one.Before terminal was obtained new system, terminal continued to use old system information.
Network uses beep-page message to send " system information change indication " to the terminal that is in RRC_IDLE and RRC_CONNECTED state.If terminal has been received the beep-page message that comprises " systemInfoModification ", can revise the boundary in cycle at the next one and change with regard to knowing system information." system information change indication " only can notify terminal system information to change, and can not indicate which or which system information to change to terminal.
The change of some system information can not trigger the transmission of the beep-page message that comprises " systemInfoModification ", as the change of ETWS.Terminal can determine by the following method whether the system information of being deposited is effective, under the situation of not receiving the systemInfoModification indication, terminal need be in a modification cycle, at least read beep-page message modificationPeriodCoeff time, in the hope of finding the systemInfoModification indication.
If do not read beep-page message, terminal thinks that system information will can not change in the next one modification cycle.If terminal reads the beep-page message that comprises the systemInfoModification indication, just think that system information will change in the next one is revised the cycle.The introducing of systemInfoModification can be avoided the frequent read system information of terminal, reduces the power consumption of terminal.
In addition, the LTE system uses paging to trigger called service and notifies terminal system information to be about to change.Beep-page message is dispatched by P-RNTI.Terminal in the network was decoded to the PDCCH channel in the specific moment, obtained beep-page message.The PDCCH DCI form of P-RNTI correspondence is format 1a and format 1c at present.DCI is meant Downlink Control Information (Downlink ControlInformation).
As mentioned above, under technique scheme, the terminal of LTE-A can't in time obtain currently to provide the system information Notification of Changes of each CC of service for it.As certain service CC, calling this CC in the following text is CC_change, when its system information changes, is used to notify the beep-page message of terminal system information-change only can send on CC_change.If the LTE-A terminal is monitored the system information Notification of Changes of all CC simultaneously, will be unfavorable to saving electric weight, therefore, terminal may select only to monitor the system information Notification of Changes of certain CC (Anchor CC), if this Anchor CC is not CC_change, terminal can't be known has the system information of CC to change, and then to cause the system information of the CC_change that terminal preserves be not up-to-date.When network need activate the data transmit-receive of this terminal on CC_change, terminal was used invalid CC configuration information, will cause transfer of data to make a mistake.
Therefore be necessary to propose the corresponding techniques scheme, terminal can realize monitoring to a plurality of CC in the resolution system, in time finds the variation of system information and the problem of upgrading.

Describe embodiments of the invention below in detail, the example of embodiment is shown in the drawings, and wherein identical from start to finish or similar label is represented identical or similar elements or the element with identical or similar functions.Below by the embodiment that is described with reference to the drawings is exemplary, only is used to explain the present invention, and can not be interpreted as limitation of the present invention.
In the LTE-A system, a common base station is administration one or more sub-districts (cell) down, and each sub-district is made of one or more member carriers.In an embodiment of the present invention, this sub-district, affiliated subdistrict and other carrier waves are modified qualification by information on CC, the CC or message, for example, this sub-district of CC or certain system message refers to and comprises that this CC is that sub-district of its member carrier or the carrier wave of bearing system message are that sub-district of its member carrier; The CC_change affiliated subdistrict refers to and comprises that CC_change is that sub-district of its member carrier, and correspondingly, other carrier waves refer in this sub-district other carrier waves except CC_change; It is that sub-district of its member carrier that information affiliated subdistricts such as MIB, SIB, IE refer to the carrier wave that comprises this carrying MIB, information such as SIB, IE, correspondingly, other carrier waves refer in this sub-district other carrier waves except the carrier wave of this carrying MIB, information such as SIB, IE.
Method for transmitting system information may further comprise the steps according to an embodiment of the invention: the base station judges whether member carrier CC needs updating system information; When member's carrier wave CC_change needed updating system information, the base station sent beep-page message 1 on CC_change, the terminal updating system information under the notice CC_change affiliated subdistrict; The base station sends beep-page message 2 on other CC of base station under the CC_change, there is the CC updating system information in the terminal under the informing base station.
Fig. 4 is the flow chart according to the system information sending method of the embodiment of the invention.As shown in Figure 4, this method may further comprise the steps:
S101: the base station judges whether member carrier CC needs updating system information.
In the LTE-A system of compatible LTE system, there are two class users, for the LTE-A terminal, for example as shown in Figure 1, this terminal can see that this LTE-A sub-district is made up of four carrier waves, network can be according to the requirement of customer service speed, and the resource of dispatching one or more carrier wave is this Terminal Service.For the LTE terminal, only can see having 4 sub-districts, their adjacent each other each other sub-districts.Therefore, the base station will judge at any time whether each member carrier CC needs updating system information.
S102: when member's carrier wave needed updating system information, the base station sent beep-page message 1, the terminal updating system information under the notifying cell on this carrier wave.
When wherein existing certain member carrier to need updating system information, for example, with CC_change statement (also can adopt other forms of statement), the base station sends beep-page message 1 on this carrier wave with this carrier wave, indication LTE and LTE-A terminal, this carrier system information is upgraded.Send beep-page message 1 and can continue to use existing technical scheme in the LTE system.For the terminal in the LTE-A sub-district, if it does not monitor CC_change, then this beep-page message is sightless to it.
For example, in the LTE system, beep-page message 1 is described below by ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One, abstract language rule notation .1) standard language:
Paging::= SEQUENCE{
pagingRecordList PagingRecordList OPTIONAL,--Need?ON
systemInfoModification ENUMERATED{true} OPTIONAL,--Need?ON
etws-Indication ENUMERATED{true?} OPTIONAL,--Need?ON
nonCriticalExtension SEQUENCE{} OPTIONAL --Need?OP
}
S103: the base station sends beep-page message 2 on other CC of this base station, there is the CC updating system information in the terminal under the informing base station.
Though monitor the terminal of other CC and be the terminal under this sub-district, owing to do not monitor CC_change, also can't hear the paging on the CC_change, in order to allow upgrade in time the system information of CC_change of these terminals, the base station sends beep-page message 2 on other CC of CC_change affiliated subdistrict, there is the CC updating system information in the terminal under the notifying cell.
As embodiments of the invention, beep-page message 2 by increase a bit information in beep-page message 1, indicates whether to exist the CC updating system information of this sub-district for beep-page message 1 is expanded realization.Furthermore, a bit information is indicated other CC updating system information that can also represent whether to exist this sub-district except that this CC.
For example, in the LTE-A system, whether a kind of beep-page message extended mode is to increase a bit, indicate the system information on other CC will change, and when the system information on other CC will change, this bit was set to true; Otherwise this bit is false.The message format of the beep-page message 2 after the expansion is as follows:
Paging::= SEQUENCE{

nonCriticalExtension SEQUENCE{}OPTIONAL--Need?OP
} OPTIONAL --Need?OP
}
Promptly, when the base station was judged CC_change with updating system information, in the BCCH modification cycle before the system information updated time, the base station sent beep-page message 2 on other CC of this sub-district, in beep-page message 2, systemInfoModification-r10ext is set to true.
As embodiments of the invention, beep-page message 2 is for to expand realization to beep-page message 1, by increase system information change bit pattern bitmap information, the corresponding CC of indication updating system information in beep-page message 1.
For example, in the LTE-A system, whether another kind of beep-page message extended mode is to use the form of system information change bit image bitmap to indicate the system information on other each CC will change.When the system information of CC changed, the indication of the bit of corresponding CC was set to true among the bitmap, and the bit that system information does not send the CC correspondence of variation is set to false.When other CC except that this CC did not have system information to change, this bitmap can not occur.The message format of the beep-page message 2 after the expansion is as follows:
Paging::= SEQUENCE{

Promptly, when the base station is judged CC_change with updating system information, in the BCCH modification cycle before the system information updated time, the base station sends beep-page message on other CC of this sub-district, in beep-page message, carry bitmap, and the bit of the CC_change correspondence among the bitmap is set to true; System information is that the bit of the CC correspondence that changes is set to false.
As embodiments of the invention, beep-page message 2 is for realizing that by the new paging ID of definition paging ID carries a bit information, is used to indicate whether to exist the CC updating system information of this sub-district.In addition, the bit information that paging ID carries can carry for implicit expression, and when new paging ID occurring on the scheduling channel, expression exists other CC that the system information change has taken place, otherwise does not have other CC generation systems information-changes.
For example, in the LTE system, beep-page message 1 is dispatched by paging ID P-RNTI.In LTE-A, can define new paging ID is P-RNTI2.P-RNTI2 is sightless to the LTE terminal, and LTE-A in this beep-page message, comprises other CC system information change indications by to P-RNTI2 decoding paging receiving message, carries 1 bit and indicates paging former because the system information on other CC changes.
Promptly, when the base station was judged CC_change with updating system information, in the BCCH modification cycle before the system information updated time, the base station sent beep-page message on other CC of this sub-district, paging ID is P-RNTI2, and paging is former because the system information on other CC changes.
Furthermore, if only being used to indicate other CC to go up system information, changes definition paging ID P-RNTI2, then when the base station uses paging ID P-RNTI2 that terminal is dispatched, terminal just can know that other CC go up system information and change, and can not need to carry the paging reason in the beep-page message again.
In addition, as embodiments of the invention, beep-page message 2 is for realizing that by the new paging ID of definition paging ID carries a bitmap information, is used to indicate the corresponding CC of updating system information.

r10NonCriticalExtension SEQUENCE{
systemInfoModification-r10ext ENUMERATED{true} OPTIONAL,--Need?ON
nonCriticalExtension SEQUENCE{}OPTIONAL--Need?OP
} OPTIONAL --Need?OP
}
That is, the LTE-A terminal is reading gating message on the CC of current monitoring, can be one or more CC; If receive beep-page message 2, and systemInfoModification-r10ext is set to true, then revises the original position in cycle at next BCCH, and the system information on the CC of unlisten is read again; After system information on finishing the CC of unlisten read, terminal was preserved these system informations.
As embodiments of the invention, beep-page message 2 is for to expand realization to beep-page message 1, by increase system information change bit pattern bitmap information, the corresponding CC of indication updating system information in beep-page message 1.
For example, in the LTE-A system, whether another kind of beep-page message extended mode is to use the form of system information change bit image bitmap to indicate the system information on other each CC will change.When the system information of CC changed, the indication of the bit of corresponding CC was set to true among the bitmap, and the bit that system information does not send the CC correspondence of variation is set to false.When other CC except that this CC did not have system information to change, this bitmap can not occur.The message format of the beep-page message 2 after the expansion is as follows:

Method for transmitting system information can may further comprise the steps according to an embodiment of the invention:
Step 1, base station judge whether member carrier CC needs updating system information;
Step 2, when member's carrier wave CC_change needs updating system information, the base station sends beep-page message 1 on CC_cnange, the terminal updating system information under the notice CC_change sub-district;
Step 3, base station send beep-page message 2 on other CC beyond the CC_change base station, notify the terminal under other base stations to have the CC updating system information.
Wherein, beep-page message 1 and beep-page message 2 can be the RRC message (have only concrete message content different) of same type, also can be two kinds of dissimilar RRC message.The base station can only send beep-page message 2 on the carrier wave that polymerization UE is arranged.
Example 1: can be by increasing a bit indication SI Change, concrete grammar comprises:
1, the base station judges whether member carrier CC needs updating system information.The base station will judge at any time whether each member carrier CC needs updating system information.
2, in the CA transmission course, when a certain member carrier CC_change needed updating system information, the base station sent beep-page message 1, the terminal updating system information under the notifying cell on carrier wave CC_change.Beep-page message 1 can be continued to use existing technical scheme in the LTE system.If UE is monitoring CC_change this moment, this UE just can receive beep-page message 1, thereby carries out system message update; If the carrier wave that UE monitors at this moment is not CC_change, UE just can't receive beep-page message 1, also just can't obtain the system message Notification of Changes of CC_change, and UE need obtain system message update by beep-page message 2 in this case.
3, the base station only sends beep-page message 2 on the carrier wave that polymerization UE is arranged, and notice is being monitored the UE updating system information of other CC.Whether can adopt and indicate the system information on this CC other CC in addition will change the mode of a bit of beep-page message expansion, when the system information on other CC will change, this bit was set to true; Otherwise this bit is false.The message format of the beep-page message 2 after the expansion is as follows:

} OPTIONAL --Need?OP
}
Promptly, when the base station was judged CC_change with updating system information, in the BCCH modification cycle before the system information updated time, the base station was on other CC beyond the CC_change, send beep-page message 2: in the beep-page message 2, systemInfoModification-r10ext is set to true.The LTE-A terminal on the CC of current monitoring (for example, special cell or anchor cell) reading gating message, if receive beep-page message 2, and systemInfoModification-r10ext is set to true, then revise the original position in cycle at next BCCH, system information on the CC of unlisten is read again, and after the system information on finishing the CC of unlisten read, terminal was preserved these system informations.
Example 2: can indicate SI Change by increasing the bitmap mode, concrete grammar comprises:
1, the base station judges whether member carrier CC needs updating system information.The base station will judge at any time whether each member carrier CC needs updating system information.
2, in the CA transmission course, when a certain member carrier CC_change needed updating system information, the base station sent beep-page message 1, the terminal updating system information under the notifying cell on carrier wave CC_change.Beep-page message 1 can be continued to use existing technical scheme in the LTE system.If UE is monitoring CC_change at this moment, this UE just can receive beep-page message 1, thereby carry out system message update, if the carrier wave that UE monitors at this moment is not CC_change, UE just can't receive beep-page message 1, also just can't obtain the system message Notification of Changes of CC_change, UE need obtain system message update by beep-page message 2 in this case.
3, the base station only sends beep-page message 2 on the carrier wave that polymerization UE is arranged, and notice is being monitored the UE updating system information of other CC.Beep-page message 2 is expanded beep-page message 1 and is realized, by increase system information change bit pattern bitmap information, the corresponding CC of indication updating system information in beep-page message 1.When the system information of CC changed, the indication of the bit of corresponding CC was set to true among the bitmap, and the bit of the CC correspondence that system information does not change is set to false.When other CC except that this CC did not have system information to change, this bitmap can not occur.The message format of the beep-page message 2 after the expansion is as follows:

Promptly, when the base station is judged CC_change with updating system information, in the BCCH modification cycle before the system information updated time, the base station is on other CC beyond the CC_change, send beep-page message 2: in the beep-page message, carry bitmap, and with among the bitmap, the bit of the CC correspondence that system information changes is set to true; The bit of the CC correspondence that system information does not change is set to false.The LTE-A terminal on the CC of current monitoring (for example, specific cell or anchor sub-district) reading gating message, if receive beep-page message 2, and carried system information change bitmap, then revise the original position in cycle at next BCCH, system information on the CC that is set to true among the bitmap is read again, and after the system information on finishing corresponding CC read, terminal was preserved these system informations.
Example 3: can carry a bit mode and indicate SI Change in the beep-page message of new paging ID correspondence by the new paging ID of definition, concrete grammar comprises:
1, the base station judges whether member carrier CC needs updating system information.The base station will judge at any time whether each member carrier CC needs updating system information.
2, in the CA transmission course, when a certain member carrier CC_change needed updating system information, the base station sent beep-page message 1, the terminal updating system information under the notifying cell on carrier wave CC_change.Beep-page message 1 can be continued to use existing technical scheme in the LTE system.If UE is monitoring CC_change this moment, this UE just can receive beep-page message 1, thereby carries out system message update; If the carrier wave that UE monitors at this moment is not CC_change, UE just can't receive beep-page message 1, also just can't obtain the system message Notification of Changes of CC_change, and UE need obtain system message update by beep-page message 2 in this case.
3, the base station only sends beep-page message 2 on the carrier wave that polymerization UE is arranged, and notice is being monitored the UE updating system information of other CC.Beep-page message 2 realizes that by defining new paging ID this paging ID carries a bit and indicates whether to exist other CC updating system information corresponding to beep-page message 2 in the beep-page message 2.
For example, in the LTE system, beep-page message 1 is dispatched by paging ID:P-RNTI.In LTE-A, can define new paging ID:P-RNTI2.P-RNTI2 is sightless to the LTE terminal, and LTE-A in this beep-page message, comprises other CC system information change indications by to P-RNTI2 decoding paging receiving message, carries 1 bit and indicates paging former because the system information on other CC changes.
Promptly, when the base station was judged CC_change with updating system information, in the BCCH modification cycle before the system information updated time, the base station was on other CC beyond the CC_change, send beep-page message: paging ID is P-RNTI2, and paging is former because the system information on other CC changes.The LTE-A terminal on the CC of current monitoring (for example, specific cell or anchor sub-district) reading gating message, if receive beep-page message 2, and paging is former because the system information on other CC changes, then revise the original position in cycle at next BCCH, system information on the CC of unlisten is read again, and after the system information on finishing corresponding CC read, terminal was preserved these system informations.
Furthermore, if only being used to indicate other CC to go up system information, changes definition paging ID P-RNTI2, then when the base station uses paging ID P-RNTI2 that terminal is dispatched, terminal just can know that other CC go up system information and change, and can not need to carry the paging reason in the beep-page message again.
Example 4: can carry the bitmap mode and indicate SI Change in the beep-page message of new paging ID correspondence by the new paging ID of definition, concrete grammar comprises:
1, the base station judges whether member carrier CC needs updating system information.The base station will judge at any time whether each member carrier CC needs updating system information.
2, in the CA transmission course, when a certain member carrier CC_change needed updating system information, the base station sent beep-page message 1, the terminal updating system information under the notifying cell on carrier wave CC_change.Beep-page message 1 can be continued to use existing technical scheme in the LTE system.If UE is monitoring CC_change this moment, this UE just can receive beep-page message 1, thereby carries out system message update; If the carrier wave that UE monitors at this moment is not CC_change, UE just can't receive beep-page message 1, also just can't obtain the system message Notification of Changes of CC_change, and UE need obtain system message update by beep-page message 2 in this case.
3, the base station only sends beep-page message 2 on the carrier wave that polymerization UE is arranged, and notice is being monitored the UE updating system information of other CC.Beep-page message 2 is for realizing that by the new paging ID of definition this paging ID carries a bitmap information, is used to indicate the corresponding CC of updating system information.The LTE-A terminal on the CC of current monitoring (for example, specific cell or anchor sub-district) reading gating message, if receive beep-page message, and carried system information change bitmap, then revise the original position in cycle at next BCCH, system information on the CC that is set to true among the bitmap is read again, finish to the indication updating system information corresponding CC on system information read after, terminal is preserved these system informations.
Example 5: can carry a bit mode and indicate SI Change in new paging ID itself by the new paging ID of definition, specific implementation method and example 3 are similar.Realize that by defining new paging ID this paging ID carries a bit information for beep-page message 2, be used to indicate whether to exist other CC updating system information.But different with example 3 is, this increase bit is positioned among the new paging ID itself, that is, the LTE-A terminal need not whether the beep-page message system information that just can judge on other CC of decoding is changed.If take into account one-step optimization, beep-page message can not carry any information or not need corresponding beep-page message.In addition, the bit information that this paging ID carries can carry for implicit expression, and when new paging ID occurring on the scheduling channel, expression exists other CC that the system information change has taken place, otherwise does not have other CC generation systems information-changes.
For example, in LTE-A, define new paging ID:P-RNTI2.P-RNTI2 is sightless to the LTE terminal, and the LTE-A terminal directly judges according to the form (bit of increase) of P-RNTI2 whether the system information on other CC variation has taken place.For example, P-RNTI2 is the expansion to the P-RNTI of LTE, and being embodied in increases a bit to PDCCH DCI format 1a or format 1c.In addition, if the bit information that P-RNTI2 carries is that implicit expression is carried, when P-RNTI2 occurring on the scheduling channel, expression exists other CC that the system information change has taken place, otherwise does not have other CC generation systems information-changes.
It is identical with example 3 with other correlation step that receive that system information sends.
Example 6: can realize by the new paging ID of definition, in new paging ID itself, carry the bitmap mode and indicate SI Change, concrete grammar and example 4 are similar, realize by defining new paging ID for beep-page message 2, this paging ID carries a bitmap information, is used to indicate the corresponding CC of updating system information.But different with example 4 is, this bitmap information is positioned among the new paging ID itself, that is, the LTE-A terminal need not variation has been taken place the beep-page message system information that just can judge on which CC of decoding.If take into account one-step optimization, beep-page message can not carry any information or not need corresponding beep-page message.
For example, in LTE-A, defining new paging ID is P-RNTI2.P-RNTI2 is sightless to the LTE terminal, and the LTE-A terminal directly judges that according to the form (the bitmap information of increase) of P-RNTI2 variation has taken place the system information on which CC.For example, P-RNTI2 is the expansion to the P-RNTI of LTE, and being embodied in increases bitmap information to PDCCH DCI format 1a.
It is identical with example 4 with other correlation step that receive that system information sends.
Example 7: can indicate SI Change by increasing carrier index (CC Index), concrete grammar comprises:
1, the base station judges whether member carrier CC needs updating system information.The base station will judge at any time whether each member carrier CC needs updating system information.
2, in the CA transmission course, when a certain member carrier CC_change needed updating system information, the base station sent beep-page message 1, the terminal updating system information under the notifying cell on carrier wave CC_change.Beep-page message 1 can be continued to use existing technical scheme in the LTE system.If UE is monitoring CC_change this moment, this UE just can receive beep-page message 1, thereby carries out system message update; If the carrier wave that UE monitors at this moment is not CC_change, UE just can't receive beep-page message 1, also just can't obtain the system message Notification of Changes of CC_change, and UE need obtain system message update by beep-page message 2 in this case.
3, the base station only sends beep-page message 2 on the carrier wave that polymerization UE is arranged, and notice is being monitored the UE updating system information of other CC.Can adopt the mode that beep-page message is expanded carrier index to indicate the system information on other CC beyond this CC whether will change, when the system information on other CC will change, the carrier index of this CC of notice UE; Otherwise, do not notify the carrier index of this CC of UE.The message format of the beep-page message 2 after the expansion is as follows:
Paging::= SEQUENCE{
pagingRecordList PagingRecordList OPTIONAL,--Need?ON
systemInfoModification ENUMERATED{true} OPTIONAL,--Need?ON
etws-Indication ENUMERATED{true} OPTIONAL,--Need?ON
r10NonCriticalExtension SEQUENCE{
CC-SystemInfoModification::= SEQUENCE?of?CC_Index OPTIONAL,--Need?ON
nonCriticalExtension SEQUENCE{}OPTIONAL--Need?OP
} OPTIONAL --Need?OP,
CC_Index INTEGER(1..8)
}
Promptly, when the base station is judged CC_change with updating system information, in the BCCH modification cycle before the system information updated time, the base station is on other CC beyond the CC_change, send beep-page message 2: in the beep-page message 2, CC-SystemInfoModification comprises the carrier index (CC Index) of CC_change.The LTE-A terminal on the CC of current monitoring (for example, special cell or anchor cell) reading gating message, if receive beep-page message 2, and CC-SystemInfoModification comprises the carrier index (CC Index) of CC_change, then revise the original position in cycle at next BCCH, system information on the CC_change that has obtained carrier index is read again, and after the system information on finishing CC_change read, terminal was preserved these system informations.
Example 8: can increase carrier index (CC Index) and indicate SI Change in the beep-page message of new paging ID correspondence by the new paging ID of definition, concrete grammar comprises:
1, the base station judges whether member carrier CC needs updating system information.The base station will judge at any time whether each member carrier CC needs updating system information.
2, in the CA transmission course, when a certain member carrier CC_change needed updating system information, the base station sent beep-page message 1, the terminal updating system information under the notifying cell on carrier wave CC_change.Beep-page message 1 can be continued to use existing technical scheme in the LTE system.If UE is monitoring CC_change this moment, this UE just can receive beep-page message 1, thereby carries out system message update; If the carrier wave that UE monitors at this moment is not CC_change, UE just can't receive beep-page message 1, also just can't obtain the system message Notification of Changes of CC_change, and UE need obtain system message update by beep-page message 2 in this case.
3, the base station only sends beep-page message 2 on the carrier wave that polymerization UE is arranged, and notice is being monitored the UE updating system information of other CC.Beep-page message 2 is realized by defining new paging ID, carries the carrier index (CC Index) that system information is upgraded CC in the beep-page message 2 of this paging ID correspondence, is used to indicate whether to exist other CC updating system information.Identical in the form of beep-page message 2 and the example 7.
For example, in the LTE system, beep-page message 1 is dispatched by paging ID:P-RNTI.In LTE-A, can define new paging ID:P-RNTI2.P-RNTI2 is sightless to the LTE terminal, LTE-A is by paging receiving message that P-RNTI2 is decoded, in this beep-page message, comprise other CC system information change indications, carry carrier index (CC Index) and indicate the system information of which other CC that variation has taken place.
Promptly, when the base station is judged CC_change with updating system information, in the BCCH modification cycle before the system information updated time, the base station is on other CC beyond the CC_change, send beep-page message: paging ID is P-RNTI2, the carrier index of carrying CC_change in the corresponding beep-page message, the system information on the expression CC_change changes.The LTE-A terminal on the CC of current monitoring (for example, special cell or anchor cell) reading gating message, if receive beep-page message 2, and carried the carrier index (CC Index) of CC_change in the beep-page message, the system information of indication CC_change changes, and then revises the original position in cycle at next BCCH, and the system information of CC_change is read again, after system information on finishing CC_change read, terminal was preserved these system informations.
Example 9: can carry carrier index (CCIndex) and indicate SI Change in new paging ID itself by the new paging ID of definition, specific implementation method and example 8 are similar.Realize by defining new paging ID that for beep-page message 2 this beep-page message 2 carries carrier index (CC Index) information, is used to indicate whether to exist other CC updating system information.But different with example 8 is, this increase carrier index (CC Index) is positioned among the new paging ID itself, that is, the LTE-A terminal need not whether the beep-page message system information that just can judge on other CC of decoding is changed.If take into account one-step optimization, beep-page message can not carry any information or not need corresponding beep-page message.In addition, the carrier index that this paging ID carries (CC Index) can be reused existing carrier index indication information, for example CI bits (CI is carrier index).If the carrier index of having carried certain CC among the new paging ID so just identifies this CC the system information renewal has taken place.
For example, in LTE-A, define new paging ID:P-RNTI2.P-RNTI2 is sightless to the LTE terminal, and the LTE-A terminal directly judges according to the form (carrier index of increase) of P-RNTI2 whether the system information on other CC variation has taken place.For example, P-RNTI2 is the expansion to the P-RNTI of LTE, and being embodied in increases carrier index to PDCCH DCI format 1a or format 1c.
It is identical with example 8 with other correlation step that receive that system information sends.
In addition, the said equipment that the embodiment of the invention proposes has solved that terminal can realize monitoring to a plurality of CC in the system, in time find the variation of system information and the problem of upgrading.According to the said equipment that the embodiment of the invention proposes, terminal both can in time find the variation of a plurality of CC system informations and upgrade, and also can not monitor a plurality of CC for a long time because of updating system information and increased the power consumption of terminal.In addition, the said equipment that the embodiment of the invention proposes, very little to the change of existing system, can not influence the compatibility of system, and realize simple, efficient.
The above only is a preferred implementation of the present invention; should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, under the prerequisite that does not break away from the principle of the invention; can also make some improvements and modifications, these improvements and modifications also should be considered as protection scope of the present invention.
