Figure 15 is a back haul link downlink information transmission equipment structural representation, as shown in the figure, can comprise in the equipment:
Configuration information receiver module 1501 is used at via node RN receiving the first area resource allocation information that eNB sends before its subordinate's subscriber equipment of service R-UE;
Wherein, the first area comprises: relaying Physical Downlink Control Channel R-PDCCH zone and the automatic repeat requests HARQ indicating channel of relaying physical mixed R-PHICH zone;
Downlink information receiver module 1502 is used for receiving the downlink information that eNB sends in the first area according to the first area resource allocation information.
In the enforcement, downlink information comprises corresponding to the Downlink Control Information of RN and/or R10UE and ACK/NACK feedback information;
The downlink information receiver module can be further used for receiving the Downlink Control Information that eNB sends in the R-PDCCH zone, receives the ACK/NACK feedback information that eNB sends in the R-PHICH zone
In the enforcement, RRC broadcast or exclusive high-level signaling that the configuration information receiver module can be further used for sending by the base station obtain R-PDCCH zone and R-PHICH area configurations information.
The configuration information receiver module can also be further used for when the area configurations information-change, receives the RRC broadcast or the exclusive high-rise order of the area configurations information after changing of carrying, and the entry-into-force time of area configurations information after changing;
The downlink information receiver module can be further used for receiving the downlink information that eNB sends in the first area according to after changing first area resource allocation information and entry-into-force time.
In the enforcement, equipment can be RN and/or R10UE.
For the convenience of describing, the each several part of the above device is divided into various modules with function or the unit is described respectively.Certainly, when enforcement is of the present invention, can in same or a plurality of softwares or hardware, realize the function of each module or unit.
By the foregoing description as can be known, the method for transmitting signals of the downlink relay link of the embodiment of the invention makes the grand UE of via node equipment and R10 can utilize all physical resources to carry out downlink data transmission fully, and has guaranteed the compatibility to R8 user.
Further, the embodiment of the invention has solved in the LTE-A system also not the problem to the multiplexing optimizing design scheme in control area on the back haul link and data area, has provided the scheme of the semi-static configuration control area of the downstream signal that is used for back haul link.
Those skilled in the art should understand that embodiments of the invention can be provided as method, system or computer program.Therefore, the present invention can adopt complete hardware embodiment, complete software implementation example or in conjunction with the form of the embodiment of software and hardware aspect.And the present invention can adopt the form that goes up the computer program of implementing in one or more computer-usable storage medium (including but not limited to magnetic disc store, CD-ROM, optical memory etc.) that wherein include computer usable program code.
The present invention is that reference is described according to the flow chart and/or the block diagram of method, equipment (system) and the computer program of the embodiment of the invention.Should understand can be by the flow process in each flow process in computer program instructions realization flow figure and/or the block diagram and/or square frame and flow chart and/or the block diagram and/or the combination of square frame.Can provide these computer program instructions to the processor of all-purpose computer, special-purpose computer, Embedded Processor or other programmable data processing device to produce a machine, make the instruction of carrying out by the processor of computer or other programmable data processing device produce to be used for the device of the function that is implemented in flow process of flow chart or a plurality of flow process and/or square frame of block diagram or a plurality of square frame appointments.
These computer program instructions also can be stored in energy vectoring computer or the computer-readable memory of other programmable data processing device with ad hoc fashion work.
These computer program instructions also can be loaded on computer or other programmable data processing device, make on computer or other programmable devices and to carry out the sequence of operations step producing computer implemented processing, thereby the instruction of carrying out on computer or other programmable devices is provided for being implemented in the step of the function of appointment in flow process of flow chart or a plurality of flow process and/or square frame of block diagram or a plurality of square frame.
Obviously, those skilled in the art can carry out various changes and modification to the present invention and not break away from the spirit and scope of the present invention.Like this, if of the present invention these are revised and modification belongs within the scope of claim of the present invention and equivalent technologies thereof, then the present invention also is intended to comprise these changes and modification interior.
