In order to make those skilled in the art can more be expressly understood the technical scheme that the embodiment of the invention provides, below by specific embodiment, the flow control methods that the embodiment of the invention is provided is elaborated.
As shown in Figure 3, the flow control methods that another embodiment of the present invention provides comprises:
Step 301, RN obtains the UE buffer status information from UE.
In described step 301, described UE buffer status information comprises up buffer status information of UE and/or UE down buffer storage state information.Described RN periodically obtains the UE buffer status information from described UE, by the UE report cycle that sets in advance.When timer reached described UE report cycle, RN obtained the UE buffer status information from UE.For example, described in the present embodiment UE report cycle is 5ms, and promptly RN obtains UE buffer status information from UE every 5ms.
In the present embodiment, described UE buffer status information is to represent to obtain by the percentage that data with existing capacity among the UE buffer accounts for UE buffer whole volume.This sentences UE down buffer storage state information is example, and after once RN obtained described UE down buffer storage state information 5ms on the distance, described RN obtained described UE down buffer storage state information again, obtains the UE down buffer storage state information from UE, for example, and 80%.Certainly, described UE buffer status information can be represented in several ways, does not give unnecessary details one by one herein.
In order to reflect the buffer status of described UE more in time, before described step 301, the described flow control methods of the embodiment of the invention also comprises:
Step 306, when the UE buffer status when closing on overflow status, receive the UE buffer status information that UE initiatively reports, guarantee that promptly the very first time receives the buffer status of the UE under this critical condition.
In described step 306, judge whether described UE buffer status is whether the described overflow status of closing on can surpass default threshold values by judging described UE buffer capacity, as, the whole volume of the descending buffer of described UE is that (unit is byte Bytes to 10M, as follows), a default threshold values is 8M in the descending buffer of described UE, in the data capacity among the descending buffer of described UE exceeds the descending buffer of described UE during default threshold values (being 8M), described UE down buffer storage state is for closing on overflow status, and UE initiatively reports UE down buffer storage state information to give RN.The default of certain described threshold values can be provided with in several ways, do not give unnecessary details one by one herein.
In sum, in the present embodiment, when the described UE down buffer storage state information that obtains as described RN is 80%, it may be that described RN periodically obtains the UE down buffer storage state information from described UE, also may be RN also not execution cycle property obtain but UE down buffer storage state has reached or when exceeding described threshold values (8M), the described UE down buffer storage state information that described UE initiatively reports.
Step 302, RN generates this RN buffer status information.
In described step 302, described RN buffer status information comprises up buffer status information of RN and/or RN down buffer storage state information.Described RN generates this RN buffer status information and comprises when RN obtains UE buffer status information from UE, RN generates this RN buffer status information and/or RN periodically generates this RN buffer status information, and/or RN initiatively generates the RN buffer status information when closing on overflow status.In the present embodiment, periodically to generate the cycle of this RN buffer status information be configurable amount, for example 5ms to described RN.
What deserves to be explained is, though in the present embodiment, it is identical with the cycle that described RN obtains described UE buffer status information that described RN generates the cycle of RN buffer status information, when concrete the use, the cycle that the cycle setting of described RN generation RN buffer status information and described RN obtain described UE buffer status information is set also can be inequality, is the configurable amount of system.
In the present embodiment, described RN buffer status information is to represent to obtain by the percentage that data with existing capacity among the RN buffer accounts for RN buffer whole volume.This sentences RN down buffer storage state information is example, and described RN can generate this RN down buffer storage state information under following three kinds of situations: when RN obtained the UE down buffer storage state information of the descending buffer of described UE, RN generated RN down buffer storage state information, as 40%; After once RN periodically generated RN down buffer storage state information 5ms on the distance, RN generated this RN down buffer storage state information, as 60%; When RN closed on overflow status, RN generated this RN down buffer storage state information, as 90%.Certainly, described RN buffer status information can be represented to obtain in several ways, does not give unnecessary details one by one herein.
When closing on overflow status at described RN, RN generates this RN down buffer storage state information, and the flow control methods that the embodiment of the invention provides also comprises:
Step 307, before described step 302, pre-set threshold value judges that by described threshold values whether the RN buffer status is for closing on overflow status.
In described step 307, described threshold values can be preset in the described RN buffer, judge whether described RN buffer status is whether the described overflow status of closing on can surpass the threshold values that is preset in the described RN buffer by judging described RN buffer capacity, as, the whole volume of the descending buffer of described RN is 10M, a default threshold values is 8M in the descending buffer of described RN, in the data capacity among the descending buffer of described RN exceeds the descending buffer of described RN during default threshold values (being 8M), described RN down buffer storage state is for closing on overflow status, RN initiatively generates RN down buffer storage state information, as 90%.The default of certain described threshold values can be provided with in several ways, do not give unnecessary details one by one herein.
Step 303 reports DeNB with described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information.
In described step 303, described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information are reported DeNB respectively, make DeNB can accurately know the state of UE buffer and RN buffer.Describedly described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information are reported DeNB adopt the radio resource control RRC means of signaling to report described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information and/or adopt the mode of MAC layer MAC control protocol data cell PDU to report described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information.Wherein, described RRC means of signaling reliability height, but the time delay of eating dishes without rice or wine is bigger; The mode time delay of described MAC control PDU is little, and signaling consumption is little, but reliability is low.
In the present embodiment, with descending buffer of UE and the descending buffer of RN is example, described UE down buffer storage state information (80%) and RN down buffer storage information (40%) are reported, and described information 80% and 40% mode by described MAC control PDU report DeNB.
Step 304, DeNB receives described UE buffer status information and the described RN buffer status information that described RN reports.
In the described step 304, the comprehensive buffer status information that generates according to described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information that described DeNB receives described UE buffer status information and the RN buffer status information that described RN reports respectively and/or receives that described RN reports.
In the present embodiment, be example with descending buffer of UE and the descending buffer of RN, the buffer status information that DeNB reception RN reports is UE down buffer storage state information (80%) and RN down buffer storage information (40%).
Step 305, according to described UE buffer status information and described RN buffer status information that described RN reports, described DeNB carries out the scheduling of data traffic to described RN.
In the present embodiment, after the main plot receives described UE buffer status information and described RN buffer status information,, the up-downgoing data of RN are dispatched in conjunction with the operating position of current wireless resource and the parameters such as priority of the UE business of dispatching.Because this scheduling is according to the up-downgoing cache information of UE and RN, therefore, reduction greatly is continuously introduced to the data volume of UE and the buffer of RN place, reduced the spill-out of data among the buffer.
In the present embodiment, be example with descending buffer of UE and the descending buffer of RN, the described UE down buffer storage state information that reports according to described RN: 80% and RN down buffer storage state information: 40%, described DeNB dispatching downlink data traffic.Described DeNB not only according to described RN down buffer storage state information, also dispatches according to described UE down buffer storage state information when descending scheduling.When described UE down buffer storage state information is 80%, then illustrate UE descending buffer buffer memory mass data, though this moment, described RN down buffer storage state information only was 40%, DeNB is when carrying out descending scheduling, can reduce and give this UE allocation of downlink resource, promptly reduce from DeNB to RN to data traffic that should UE, thereby alleviate the descending buffer pressure of this UE at RN, avoided because RN is very low to the Uu downlink rate of UE, and DeNB makes the descending buffer of RN overflow to the accumulation of the fine downlink data that causes of the downlink quality of RN at RN.Reduced the probability that data exceed the descending buffer capacity of RN, greatly reduced owing to exceed the descending buffer capacity of RN and cause data to be abandoned, the defeated resource of waste Un oral instructions, the situation that reduces LTE-A system spectrum utilance takes place.
Same, for fear of overflowing of the up buffer of described RN or overflowing of described RN up-downgoing buffer, can adopt the method for same principle to carry out the flow control of RN upstream data or RN up-downgoing data, do not give unnecessary details one by one herein.
Flow control methods provided by the invention, by described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information are reported described DeNB respectively, DeNB carries out the scheduling of data traffic according to described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information, solved because RN and the scheduling of DeNB data traffic are separate, RN buffer may occur and overflow situation, cause the problem of the used transmission resource waste of Un mouth.Flow control methods provided by the invention, by described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information are reported described DeNB respectively, DeNB carries out the scheduling of data traffic according to described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information, make described RN be associated, thereby reduced the probability that RNbuffer overflows with the scheduling of DeNB data traffic.
In the probability that reduction RN buffer overflows, the signaling consumption when reporting described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information to give DeNB in order to reduce.
The flow control methods that another embodiment of the present invention provides as shown in Figure 4, after described step 302, also comprises step 308, generates comprehensive buffer status information according to described subscriber equipment buffer status information and via node buffer status information.
In the present embodiment, in the described step 303, described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information are reported DeNB for described buffer status information is reported DeNB
Described comprehensive buffer status information can obtain by following function:
DL?BS*=function(B1,B2)
Wherein, DL BS* is comprehensive buffer status information; B1 is a RN buffer status information value; B2 is a UE buffer status information value.
In the present embodiment, B1 obtains according to described RN down buffer storage state information, and when described RN down buffer storage state information 〉=80%, the descending buffer of RN is expressed as high load condition, otherwise the descending buffer of RN is low load condition; B2 obtains according to described UE down buffer storage state information, and when described UE down buffer storage state information 〉=80%, the descending buffer of UE is expressed as high load condition, otherwise the descending buffer of UE is low load condition; Be that described B1 and B2 have high capacity and two kinds of buffer status of low load.Under the situation of known B1 and B2, obtain DL BS* by table 1.
Table 1 (the low load of 0 expression, 1 expression high capacity):
B1 0 0 1 1
B2 0 1 0 1
DLBS* 0 1 1 1
As shown in Table 1, when at least one was 1 among described B1 and the described B2, described DL BS* was 1, otherwise described DL BS* is 0.Method shown in the use table 1 only needs 1 bit information can reflect comprehensive buffer status information.
In order to reflect the descending and descending buffer status of RN of UE more accurately, present embodiment is represented on the basis of described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information in described high capacity and described low load, the descending buffer of RN that also introduces when 60%≤RN down buffer storage state information<80% is expressed as middle load condition, when 60%≤UE down buffer storage state information<80%, the descending buffer of UE is middle load condition.Be that described B1 and B2 have high capacity, middle load and three kinds of buffer status of low load.Under the situation of known B1 and B2, obtain DL BS* by table 2.
Table 2 (the low load of 1 expression, load in 0 expression, 1 expression high capacity)
B1 0 0 0 1 1 1 -1 -1 -1
B2 0 1 -1 0 1 -1 0 1 -1
DLBS* 0 1 0 1 1 1 0 1 -1
As shown in Table 2, on the basis of table 1, introduced a middle load, at this moment, in the present embodiment, the low load of-1 expression, load in 0 expression, 1 expression high capacity.When at least one was 1 among described B1 and the described B2, described DL BS* was 1; When described B1 and described B2 be 0 or described B1 and described B2 in one be 0 one for-1 the time, described DL BS* is 0; Otherwise described DL BS* is-1.Method shown in the use table 2 needs 2 bit informations to reflect comprehensive buffer status information, this method is than the method shown in the table 1, has higher accuracy, when described DeNB receives described DL BS*, it is more accurate to described RN downlink data dispatching, when reducing signaling consumption, improved the scheduling precision of DeNB.
What deserves to be explained is, obtaining of described comprehensive buffer status information is not limited in described function DLBS*=function (B1, B2), and described function DL BS*=function (B1, B2) realization also is not limited in the described two kinds of methods of the foregoing description, every kind of method is not given unnecessary details one by one herein.
In the present embodiment, with descending buffer of described UE and the descending buffer of described RN is example, described DeNB only need carry out the scheduling of data traffic according to described comprehensive buffer status information, when comprehensive buffer status information is high capacity, it is high capacity that DeNB receives comprehensive buffer status information, DeNB reduces the distribution of downlink resource when descending scheduling, thereby alleviate the descending buffer pressure of this RN and/or UE, reduced the probability that data exceed RN descending buffer capacity, greatly reducing owing to exceed the descending buffer capacity of RN causes data to be abandoned, the defeated resource of waste Un and/or Uu oral instructions, the situation that reduces LTE-A system spectrum utilance takes place.Simultaneously, owing to introduce comprehensive buffer status information, when guaranteeing to prevent that RN from overflowing, reduced that described UE buffer status information and described RN buffer status information are reported the needed signaling consumption of described DeNB.
Same, for fear of overflowing of the up buffer of described RN or overflowing of described RN up-downgoing buffer, and further reduce the expense that reports signaling in the process, and can adopt the method for same principle to carry out the Flow Control of RN upstream data or RN up-downgoing data, do not give unnecessary details one by one herein.
The flow control methods that the embodiment of the invention provides, by described comprehensive buffer status information is reported DeNB, DeNB carries out the scheduling of data traffic according to described comprehensive buffer status information, solved because RN and the scheduling of DeNB data traffic are separate, RN buffer may occur and overflow situation, cause the problem of the used transmission resource waste of Un mouth.Flow control methods provided by the invention, report described comprehensive buffer status information by RN, reduced described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information have been reported signaling consumption in the described DeNB process, and make the scheduling of described RN and DeNB data traffic be associated, thereby reduced the probability that RN buffer overflows by described comprehensive buffer status information.
Further,, reduce the scheduling times of DeNB for when reducing RN buffer overflow probability, the flow control methods that yet another embodiment of the invention provides, as shown in Figure 5, above-mentioned steps 308 comprises:
Step 3081 according to described subscriber equipment buffer status information, is obtained through the UE buffer status information of forecasting behind the t1+t2;
Step 3082 according to described via node buffer status information, is obtained through the RN buffer status information of forecasting behind the t1;
Step 3083 generates comprehensive buffer status information according to described UE buffer status information of forecasting and described RN buffer status information of forecasting.
Herein, t1 is scheduling and the signaling process time delay of Un; T2 is scheduling and the signaling process time delay of Uu.
In the present embodiment, use function:
(t1 t2) obtains described comprehensive buffer status information in the described step 303 to DL BS*=function for b1, b2.Wherein, DL BS* is comprehensive buffer status information; B1 is a RN down buffer storage state information value; B2 is a UE down buffer storage state information value;
Described in the present embodiment function DL BS*=function (t1 t2) can be evolved to the function described in the foregoing description for b1, b2:
(B1 B2) obtains DL BS*=function.
What deserves to be explained is that described in the present embodiment DL BS* is comprehensive buffer status information; Described B1 is a RN down buffer storage state information value behind the t1; Described B2 is (t1+t2) back UE down buffer storage state information value.
(B1, (B1, implementation method B2) is identical, does not give unnecessary details one by one herein for the BS*=function of function DL described in implementation method B2) and the foregoing description for described function DL BS*=function in the present embodiment.
The scheduling of Un and scheduling and the signaling process time delay t2 of signaling process time delay t1 and Uu have been introduced on the basis that is created on above embodiment of described comprehensive buffer status information.Be example with descending buffer of described UE and the descending buffer of RN herein, after introducing t1 and t2 in the present embodiment, prediction after described B 1 delays time through t1 according to described RN down buffer storage state information obtains, and described B2 obtains through (t1+t2) time-delay back prediction according to described UE buffer status information.Described B1 obtains by historical data, current business speed, the offered load status predication of described b1, RN buffer at least; Described B2 obtains by historical data, current business speed, the offered load status predication of described b2, UEbuffer at least.
In the present embodiment, the purpose of introducing t1 and t2 is to consider when described DeNB receives the descending buffer state of described UE that RN reports and RN, the scheduling and the signaling process time delay of Uu mouth and Un mouth have been passed through, the received buffer state information of DeNB is actually the buffer state information before a certain period, has caused the error of DeNB scheduling.This down buffer storage state of sentencing RN is an example, and when the down buffer storage state information of RN is high capacity, RN needs this buffer status information is reported DeNB.After DeNB is known this information,, alleviate the overflow status of the descending buffer of RN by for example reducing modes such as downlink data transmission speed.But, if the descending transmission speed of RN much larger than the data of RN from the descending reception data of Un mouth, then RN is very fast oneself can realize the alleviation of overflowing, and need not handle scheduling by DeNB.Therefore, RN is before reporting described RN buffer status information, should be by the buffer state behind the transmitting-receiving of the historical data for example velocity estimation t1, if this overflow status can be resolved, then DeNB does not need RN is carried out the scheduling of downlink data, thereby reduced the scheduling times of DeNB, alleviated the workload of DeNB, avoided unnecessary scheduling.
In the present embodiment, in described RN, RN with the UE down buffer storage state information that gets access to carry out (t1+t2) time-delay after prediction, thereby obtain information B2; And the described RN down buffer storage state information that RN generates carried out prediction after the t1 time-delay, thus obtain B1, carry out the scheduling of data traffic according to described B1, B2, alleviated the workload of DeNB, avoided the unnecessary scheduling of DeNB.
Same, for fear of overflowing of the up buffer of described RN or overflowing of described RN up-downgoing buffer, and further reduced the scheduling times of DeNB, alleviated the workload of DeNB, avoided unnecessary scheduling, can adopt the method for same principle to carry out the Flow Control of RN upstream data or RN up-downgoing data, not give unnecessary details one by one herein.
The flow control methods that the embodiment of the invention provides, in conjunction with the RN buffer status information after the prediction t1 time-delay and (t1+t2) the UE buffer status information after the time-delay obtain comprehensive buffer status information, described comprehensive buffer status information is reported DeNB, DeNB carries out the scheduling of data traffic according to described comprehensive buffer status information, solved because RN and the scheduling of DeNB data traffic are separate, RN buffer may occur and overflow situation, cause the problem of the used transmission resource waste of Un mouth, and solved DeNB and RN, the nonsynchronous problem of scheduling that causes owing to time delay between the UE.Flow control methods provided by the invention, on the one hand by reporting comprehensive buffer status information, reduced the expense that buffer status information reports signaling, on the other hand by described UE buffer status information and described UE buffer status information after the prediction time-delay, avoided the unnecessary scheduling times of DeNB, and make the scheduling of described RN and DeNB data traffic be associated, thereby reduced the probability that RN buffer overflows by described comprehensive buffer status information.
