Technical field
The present invention relates to the administration of multicast service method, utilize this method, the mobile terminal device of having subscribed the user of multicast service will receive multicast message through mobile radio communication.
Background technology
Under the situation of multicast service, be designated as to its different user that transmits identical multicast message the user is concentrated at multicast crowd together.This multicast crowd is discerned by multicast address.Therefore, the message data that is transmitted only once sends on this multicast address.In the ideal case, only once send through bus road direction multicast message receiver by the multicast message transmitter.For transmitter, do not require and know wherein and have how many receivers to be hidden in after the multicast address.
In known multicast service; Exist a shortcoming, promptly multicast message does not rely on some mobile terminal device that is under the jurisdiction of relevant multicast crowd and whether receives the multicast message to all mobile wireless sub-districts emissions at the mobile terminal device place that belongs to the multicast crowd according to user's wish.Therefore, when transmission multicast message, usually to take according to user intention and just in time not receive the radio resource of the appointment of multicast message to mobile terminal device.
Summary of the invention
In view of the above, task of the present invention be propose a kind of can with more economical mode utilize the existing radio resource, the administration of multicast service method.
This task is resolved in the said method of beginning in the following manner; Mobile terminal device is equipped with input unit respectively; When input unit started, just producing the service of indication multicast was to activate or the active information of deexcitation, and active information to be transferred to mobile communication online.
Make the information of the temporary transient deexcitation of multicast service through generation, just created the precondition that the mobile radio communication that makes this information that acceptance transmits can determine to take its radio resource better.Know that at any time which mobile terminal device in the multicast service just in time activates.
Mobile radio communication is preferential only to those mobile terminal device transmission multicast service messages that do not have deexcitation information.Can significantly practice thrift radio resource in this way.
The multicast service can be divided into many branch services, wherein, so input unit allows each indivedual sub-service of deexcitation to be engaged in.Nature, input unit also can be used for activating again other or whole branch services.
Especially will preferentially select in mobile terminal device and mobile radio communication, to store active information with form, it is to activate or the registration of deexcitation that this table divide service to comprise to divide service to each.
This registration form possibly exist from the form of mobile radio communication aspect with continuous updating; Wherein, The terminal equipment of participating in the multicast service in the scope that signaling connects, upgrades their registration form separately through the transmission to the online corresponding information signal of mobile communication.
Description of drawings
By an embodiment the present invention is done more detailed explanation below.A unique accompanying drawing illustrates the block diagram that the signaling between the mobile terminal device that is used to specify mobile radio communication node, base station and appointment is connected.
Embodiment
Suppose that two mobile radio unit UE1, UE2 are in the mobile wireless sub-district Z that is launched by base station BS, base station BS connects through fixed network and links to each other with the node of mobile radio communication RNC.No matter mobile terminal device UE1, UE2 still are the node of mobile radio communication RNC, all carry out work according to the agreement of UMTS protocol architecture.Inner at this protocol architecture, special provision so-called RRC state, which signaling level its explanation mobile terminal device and mobile radio communication RNC node are in.
Two mobile terminal device UE1 and UE2 should be in " idle pulley " when beginning.Under " idle pulley ", mobile terminal device UE1, UE2 receive " Broadcast " (broadcasting) message from mobile radio communication RNC node, and (PICH listens on PCH) at notification channel.Whether the node of mobile radio communication RNC is not understood mobile terminal device UE1, UE2 itself, do not understand mobile terminal device UE1, UE2 yet and be in the sub-district that receives its control.
The user of UE1 and UE2 has been scheduled to multicast service A, B and C, and is under the jurisdiction of specified multicast crowd MA, MB, MC.
Suppose that again mobile terminal device UE1 is transformed to RRC state " CELL-DCH " from RRC state " idle pulley ", because such as it receives calling.For this purpose, notice mobile terminal device UE1 has call arrival.So; Mobile terminal device UE1 just sets up signaling with the node of mobile radio communication RNC and is connected; In mobile radio communication RNC, mobile terminal device UE1 sends message " RRC Connection Request " (RRC connection request) to the node of mobile radio communication RNC.So the node of mobile radio communication RNC sends it back message " RRC Connection Set Up " (RRC connects foundation) to mobile terminal device UE1.Mobile terminal device UE1 disposes its protocol layer, and sends it back " RRC Connection Set Up Complete " (accomplish RRC and connect foundation) to the node of mobile radio communication RNC, sets up signaling with conclusive evidence and connects.
For example, in the message " RRC Connection Set Up Complete " of the node of mobile radio communication RNC, maybe the registration form that store at this place be sent to the node of mobile radio communication RNC now.In registration form, specify one to point out that relevant multicast service is to activate or the information of deexcitation respectively to each multicast service A, B, C.Under the situation of deexcitation, just should not send multicast message to relevant mobile terminal device UE1, UE2.
Can be through accomplishing the registration in this table as the keyboard of mobile terminal device UE1, UE2 input unit.
Now, if the multicast transmission of messages is suitable for multicast crowd MA, then the node of mobile radio communication RNC must have been found out relevant multicast crowd mobile terminal device and where has been positioned at.Because also considered is utilized the expense of multicast service A, B and C, so which user activation is the node of mobile radio communication RNC in addition also must grasp and will receive the information that current multicast is served A, B and C.
For this reason, the node of mobile radio communication RNC is checked mobile terminal device UE1, the UE2 that it is controlled, and whether have a look in the registration form under mobile terminal device UE1, UE2 is that they mark multicast crowd MA as activation.
In addition, the node of mobile radio communication RNC is also notified mobile terminal device UE2, the multicast of the message of multicast crowd MA is transmitted in waits.At this moment, mobile terminal device UE2 will check in its registration form whether its user has activated multicast crowd MA.Because this should be a situation in the current embodiment; So mobile terminal device UE2 connects through the signaling that base station BS is established to mobile radio communication RNC node now, and in " RRC Connection Set Up Complete " message, its actual registration form transferred to the node of mobile radio communication RNC equally.
To this, the node of mobile radio communication RNC learns that from now on two mobile terminal device UE1, UE2 are ready to receive the message data to multicast crowd MA, and correspondingly distributes the radio resource of the use that provides.Other mobile terminal device for one or more multicasts are served the multicast crowd MA of deexcitations then stops transmission of messages.
Should point out emphatically, on the node of mobile radio communication RNC, can upgrade registration form by this way and can guarantee reliable renewal.For this purpose, can be utilized in each signaling connection that occurs by rule between mobile terminal device UE1, UE2 and the mobile radio communication RNC node.Also have only when mobile terminal device UE1, UE2 receive the notice that the multicast message that belongs to multicast crowd MA has been determined, could transmit the registration form of activation multicast service A, B, C.
