In order to make those skilled in the art can more clearly understand the technical scheme that the embodiment of the present invention provides, below by specific embodiment, the flow control methods that the embodiment of the present 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 the 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 set in advance.When timer reaches described UE report cycle, RN obtains the UE buffer status information from UE.For example, described UE report cycle is 5ms in the present embodiment, and RN obtains the UE buffer status information from UE every 5ms.
In the present embodiment, described UE buffer status information is that the percentage that accounts for UE buffer whole volume by data with existing capacity in UE buffer means to obtain.This sentences UE down buffer storage state information is example, and after on distance, once RN obtains described UE down buffer storage state information 5ms, described RN obtains 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 meaned in several ways, does not repeat one by one herein.
In order to reflect more in time the buffer status of described UE, before described step 301, the described flow control methods of the embodiment of the present invention also comprises:
Step 306, when closing on overflow status, receive the UE buffer status information of UE active reporting when the UE buffer status, guarantees that 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), in the descending buffer of described UE, a default threshold values is 8M, when the data capacity in the descending buffer of described UE exceeds threshold values default in the descending buffer of described UE (being 8M), described UE down buffer storage state is for closing on overflow status, and UE active reporting UE down buffer storage state information is to RN.The default of certain described threshold values can be arranged in several ways, do not repeat one by one herein.
In sum, in the present embodiment, when the described UE down buffer storage state information obtained as described RN is 80%, it may be that described RN periodically obtains the UE down buffer storage state information from described UE, may be also RN also not execution cycle property obtain but UE down buffer storage state has reached or while exceeding described threshold values (8M), the described UE down buffer storage state information of described UE active reporting.
Step 302, RN generates this RN buffer status information.
In described step 302, described RN buffer status information comprises the 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 the 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 while 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, although 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 described RN generates the RN buffer status information set obtain the cycle setting of described UE buffer status information with described RN can be not identical yet, be the configurable amount of system.
In the present embodiment, described RN buffer status information is that the percentage that accounts for RN buffer whole volume by data with existing capacity in RN buffer means to obtain.This sentences RN down buffer storage state information is example, and described RN can generate this RN down buffer storage state information in following three kinds of situations: when RN obtains the UE down buffer storage state information of the descending buffer of described UE, RN generates RN down buffer storage state information, as 40%; After on distance, once RN periodically generates RN down buffer storage state information 5ms, RN generates this RN down buffer storage state information, as 60%; When RN closes on overflow status, RN generates this RN down buffer storage state information, as 90%.Certainly, described RN buffer status information can mean to obtain in several ways, does not repeat one by one herein.
While for described RN, closing on overflow status, RN generates this RN down buffer storage state information, and the flow control methods that the embodiment of the present invention provides also comprises:
Step 307, before described step 302, pre-set threshold value, judge 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 described RN buffer, judge whether described RN buffer status is that the described overflow status of closing on can be preset in the threshold values in described RN buffer by judging whether described RN buffer capacity surpasses, as, the whole volume of the descending buffer of described RN is 10M, in the descending buffer of described RN, a default threshold values is 8M, when the data capacity in the descending buffer of described RN exceeds threshold values default in the descending buffer of described RN (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 arranged in several ways, do not repeat one by one herein.
Step 303, report DeNB by 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 respectively to DeNB, 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 to the mode that DeNB adopts the radio resource control RRC signaling 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, the mode reliability of described RRC signaling is high, but the time delay of eating dishes without rice or wine is larger; The mode time delay that described MAC controls PDU is little, and signaling consumption is little, but reliability is low.
In the present embodiment, the descending buffer of the UE of take and the descending buffer of RN are 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 described step 304, the comprehensive buffer status information generated 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, the descending buffer of the UE of take and the descending buffer of RN are example, and 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, the described UE buffer status information reported according to described RN and described RN buffer status information, described DeNB carries out the scheduling of data traffic to described RN.
In the present embodiment, after main plot receives described UE buffer status information and described RN buffer status information, in conjunction with the service condition of current wireless resource and the parameters such as priority of the UE business of dispatching, the up-downgoing data of RN are dispatched.According to the up-downgoing cache information of UE and RN, therefore, by greatly reducing the data volume that is continuously introduced to UE and the buffer of RN place, reduced the spill-out of data in buffer due to this scheduling.
In the present embodiment, the descending buffer of the UE of take and the descending buffer of RN are example, the described UE down buffer storage state information reported according to described RN: 80% and RN down buffer storage state information: 40%, and described DeNB dispatching downlink data traffic.Described DeNB, when descending scheduling, not only according to described RN down buffer storage state information, is also dispatched according to described UE down buffer storage state information.When described UE down buffer storage state information is 80%, illustrate UE descending buffer buffer memory mass data, although now described RN down buffer storage state information is only 40%, DeNB is when carrying out descending scheduling, can reduce to this UE allocation of downlink resource, 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 accumulation at RN to the fine downlink data caused of the downlink quality of RN makes the descending buffer of RN overflow.Reduced the probability that data exceed the descending buffer capacity of RN, greatly reduced owing to exceeding the descending buffer capacity of RN and cause data to be abandoned, waste Un port transmission resource, the situation that reduces LTE-A system spectrum utilance occurs.
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 repeat one by one herein.
Flow control methods provided by the invention, by described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information are reported respectively to described DeNB, DeNB carries out the scheduling of data traffic according to described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information, solved because the scheduling of RN and DeNB data traffic is separate, may occur that RN buffer overflows situation, causes the problem of Un mouth transmission resource waste used.Flow control methods provided by the invention, by described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information are reported respectively to described DeNB, 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 with the scheduling of DeNB data traffic, thereby reduced the probability that RNbuffer overflows.
In the probability overflowed at reduction RN buffer, the signaling consumption while in order to reduce, reporting described UE buffer status information and RN buffer status information to DeNB.
The flow control methods that another embodiment of the present invention provides, as shown in Figure 4, after described step 302, also comprise step 308, according to described subscriber equipment buffer status information and via node buffer status information, generates comprehensive buffer status information.

Described function DL BS in the present embodiment *=function (b1, b2, t1, t2) can be evolved to the function described in above-described embodiment:
DL BS *=function(B1,B2)
Obtain.
What deserves to be explained is, in the present embodiment described DL BS *For comprehensive buffer status information; Described B1 is RN down buffer storage state information value after t1; Described B2 is UE down buffer storage state information value after (t1+t2).
Described function DL BS in the present embodiment *The BS of function DL described in the implementation method of=function (B1, B2) and above-described embodiment *The implementation method of=function (B1, B2) is identical, does not repeat one by one herein.
The scheduling of Un and scheduling and the signaling processing delay t2 of signaling processing delay t1 and Uu have been introduced on the basis that is created on above embodiment of described comprehensive buffer status information.Take herein the descending buffer of described UE and the descending buffer of RN is example, after introducing in the present embodiment t1 and t2, according to described RN down buffer storage state information, the prediction after the t1 time delay obtains described B1, and described B2 predicts and obtains after (t1+t2) time delay according to described UE buffer status information.Described B1 at least obtains by historical data, current business speed, the offered load status predication of described b1, RN buffer; Described B2 at least obtains by historical data, current business speed, the offered load status predication of described b2, UEbuffer.
In the present embodiment, the purpose of introducing t1 and t2 is to consider when described DeNB receives described UE that RN reports and the descending buffer state of RN, scheduling and the signaling processing 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 example, and when the down buffer storage state information of RN is high capacity, RN needs this buffer status information is reported to DeNB.After DeNB is known this information, by such as modes such as reduction downlink data transmission speeds, alleviate the overflow status of the descending buffer of RN.But if, the data of descending transmission speed much larger than RN from the descending reception data of Un mouth of RN, RN oneself can realize the alleviation of overflowing very soon, need to not process scheduling by DeNB.Therefore, RN is before reporting described RN buffer status information, should be by the buffer state after the transmitting-receiving of historical data for example velocity estimation t1, if this overflow status can be resolved, 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 carries out the prediction after (t1+t2) time delay by the UE down buffer storage state information got, thereby obtains information B2; And the described RN down buffer storage state information that RN generates is carried out to the 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 repeat one by one herein.
The flow control methods that the embodiment of the present invention provides, in conjunction with the RN buffer status information after prediction t1 time delay and (t1+t2) the UE buffer status information after time delay obtain comprehensive buffer status information, described comprehensive buffer status information is reported to DeNB, DeNB carries out the scheduling of data traffic according to described comprehensive buffer status information, solved because the scheduling of RN and DeNB data traffic is separate, may occur that RN buffer overflows situation, cause the problem of Un mouth transmission resource waste used, and DeNB and RN have been solved, the nonsynchronous problem of the scheduling caused due to time delay between 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 prediction time delay, avoided the unnecessary scheduling times of DeNB, and make described RN be associated with the scheduling of DeNB data traffic by described comprehensive buffer status information, thereby reduced the probability that RN buffer overflows.
