The receiving/transmission method of a kind of multicast control channel MCCH, device and system
Technical field
The present invention relates to the mobile communication technology field, particularly relate to receiving/transmission method, device and the system of a kind of MCCH.
Background technology
In the 3G (Third Generation) Moblie technical field, LTE (Long Term Evolution, Long Term Evolution) (Release 9 for R9, the 9th version) system has introduced MBMS (Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service, multimedia broadcast multi-broadcasting business) mechanism, by MCCH (Multicast Control Channel, multicast control channel) control information of MBMS transmission, and by BCCH (Broadcast Control Channel, Broadcast Control Channel) MCS (Modulation and Coding Scheme, the modulating-coding form) information of transmission MCCH.If it is inequality that the MCS of the MCCH that UE (User Equipment, subscriber equipment) receives by BCCH and current MCCH transmit employed MCS, will cause MCCH reception mistake, further cause UE can't normally receive the MBMS business, influence user experience.
As shown in Figure 1, be the MBMS configuration diagram in the LTE R9 system, wherein, the M3 interface is MCE (MBMS Coordination Entity, MBMS is coordinated) and MME (Mobility Management Entity, Mobility Management Entity) interface between, at this interface definition the application corresponding function, so that carry out EPS (Evolved Packet System, Evolved Packet System) the MBMS session control signaling of carrying grade is mutual, relevant session control process comprises MBMSSession Start (session begins) and MBMS Session Stop (session stops), SCTP (Stream Control Transmission Protocol is used in the signaling transmission of this interface, SCTP), i.e. point-to-point the carrying out of the signaling of this interface transmission.The M2 interface is MCE and eNB (Evolved Node B, evolved Node B) logic interfacing between, at this interface definition the application corresponding function, so that transmit many cell transmission pattern eNB required radio configuration parameters and session control signaling, SCTP is also used in the signaling transmission of this interface, the signaling transmission of this interface also is point-to-point mode, chain of command transmission of Information path is from BM-SC (Broadcast Multicast Service Center, the BroadCast MultiCast Service center) to MME, arrive MCE again, arrive eNB again.The M1 interface is MBMS GW (Gate Way, gateway) and the logic interfacing between the eNB, this interface is a pure interface in the user plane, do not define the chain of command application function on the interface, the transmission of pointing to the user grouping of single sub-district and many sub-districts is based on PTM (Point To Multi-Point, the point-to-multipoint) transmission of IP (Internet Protocol, Internet protocol) multicast, the bang path of user face data is: to MBMS GW, arrive eNB from BM-SC again.
The interrelated logic channel of MBMS comprises BCCH, MCCH and MTCH, and wherein, BCCH is used for network to the UE broadcast system information; MCCH is the down channel of a PTM, be used for network to the relevant control information of UE MBMS transmission, a MCCH can be corresponding to one or more MTCH (Multicast Traffic Channel, the multicast service channel), have only the UE that can receive the MBMS business just can use MCCH, UE can be notified by system broadcasts with MCS, modification cycle and the repetition period of MCCH in the base station, the modification cycle generally is N a times of repetition period, in a modification cycle, the MCCH information that all repetition periods send is the same, to guarantee the reliable reception of MCCH.MTCH is the down channel of a point to multiple spot, be used for network to the UE transferring MBMS service data, have only the UE that can receive the MBMS business just can use MTCH, the information of MTCH is to be indicated by its corresponding MCCH, network utilisation BCCH indicates MCCH to UE, utilize MCCH to indicate MTCH again, make UE be received in the purpose that MTCH goes up the MBMS business of carrying thereby reach to UE.
In the present LTE system, except ETWS (Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System, earthquake and tsunami warning system) outside the information, the change of system information can only take place in specific radio frames, definite by the modification cycle (modification period), wherein, the modification periodic regime of BCCH is 640ms~40.96s.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 period m is SFN mod m=0; Wherein, SFN is a System Frame Number, and m is modification cycle (unit is a radio frames).When network needs altering system information (all or part of system information), at first need to the indication of terminal transmitting system information-change, 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 sends the system information after upgrading, and as shown in Figure 2, wherein, different colors are represented the system information of different cycles.
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 paging information to the terminal transmitting system information-change indication that is in RRC_IDLE and RRC_CONNECTED state.If terminal has been received the paging information that comprises " systemInfoModification ", can know that system information can revise the boundary in cycle at the next one and change.System information change indication only can notify terminal system information to change, can be to the terminal indication with the system information that changes.In addition, if variation has taken place system information, the ValueTag among the SIB (System Information Block, system information block) 1 also can change, and UE also can judge whether the system information renewal by reading ValueTag.
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 paging information modificationPeriodCoeff time, in the hope of finding the systemInfoModification indication.If do not read paging information, terminal thinks that system information will can not change in the next one modification cycle.If terminal reads the paging information that comprises the systemInfoModification indication, just think that system information will change in the next one is revised the cycle.
Stipulate among the LTE R9 that at present if MBMS special-purpose SIB, the SIB (SIB13) that promptly carries MBMS information changes, and can cause the system information change, influence promptly that systemInfoModification in the beep-page message indicates and SIB1 in ValueTag.Because the MCS of MCCH carries by SIB13, therefore, when the MCS of MCCH changes, can cause the SIB13 change, and then cause system information to change, the UE next BCCH modification cycle after the system information Notification of Changes of need receiving is read SIB13 again, and the MCS according to the MCCH among the SIB13 receives MCCH then.
LTE R9 is divided into two kinds of situations for the reception of MCCH: for the UE that does not receive the MBMS business, carry out the reception of MCCH by monitoring MBMS Notification (notice) information; For the UE that receives the MBMS business, periodically monitor MCCH.When the Session of MBMS business Start (session begins), network can send Notification information to UE, promptly notify UE to have new MBMS service conversation to begin, UE will read MCCH in the modification cycle of next MCCH after receiving Notification information, obtain the specifying information of Session, if UE is interested in this MBMS business,, read corresponding M TCH then according to the content of MCCH, receive this MBMS business, as shown in Figure 3.
For the UE that does not receive MBMS,, will read MCCH in the next one modification cycle if this UE receives Notification information; If this UE does not receive Notification information, will continue to monitor the Notification subframe, and can not read MCCH.For the UE that receives the MBMS business, each MCCH cycle of revising all needs to read MCCH information, does not need to monitor the Notification subframe.
MCCH exists modification cycle and repetition period, and MCCH information is constant in the modification cycle, and carries out repetition with the repetition period.UE can receive repeatedly identical MCCH information in the modification cycle, read the MCCH loaded information as long as correct reception once just can correctly be separated, as shown in Figure 4.The modification cycle of MCCH is consistent in MBSFN (Multicast Broadcast Single Frequency Network, Multicast Broadcast Single Frequency Network) zone, and the modification cycle of BCCH is the sub-district independent maintenance.Information such as the MCS of MCCH, modification cycle and repetition period all are to be generated by MCE, send to eNB then, and eNB carries out system information broadcast with the part of above-mentioned information as content among the SIB13 in this sub-district.And MCCH generates and sends eNB by MCE, and eNB sends to UE in the sub-district with this partial information.In addition, stipulate also in the LTE agreement that UE receives before the system information of renewal, the system information before still using; UE receives after the system information of renewal, can use immediately, and needn't receive all system informations by the time.
The inventor is in realizing process of the present invention, and there are the following problems at least to find prior art:
Because revising the relation in cycle and MCCH modification cycle, BCCH determines the problem of using prior art can exist the MCCH mistake to receive as yet.With scene shown in Figure 5 is example, and wherein, the modification cycle of BCCH is 20.48s, and the modification cycle of MCCH is 10.24s.When the MCS of MCCH changes, UE meeting updating system information, suppose that UE obtains the new MCS of the MCCH in the new system information constantly at T1, UE will utilize new MCS that MCCH is received at T2 constantly, because the MCS of MCCH will change constantly at T3, therefore constantly at T2, MCCH uses remains old MCS, and UE receives MCCH according to new MCS constantly at T2, can cause UE can't correctly receive the situation of MCCH, and then cause receiving the MBMS business, influence user experience.
