Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to multimedia broadcasting and multicast (Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service, MBMS) field, particularly relate to a kind of method of counting and system of multimedia broadcast-multicast service.
Background technology
Along with the fast development of the Internet and the universal of large-screen multi-functional mobile phone, a large amount of Mobile data multimedia service and various high bandwidth multimedia service are there is, such as video conference, television broadcasting, video request program, video ads, online education, interactive game etc.These Mobile data multimedia services and various high bandwidth multimedia service, not only meet the business demand that mobile subscriber constantly rises, simultaneously also for mobile operator brings new business growth point.These Mobile data multimedia services and the multiple user of various high bandwidth multimedia service requirements can receive identical data simultaneously, compared with general data service, have the features such as data volume is large, duration length, delay sensitive.
In order to effectively utilize mobile network resource, third generation partner program (3rd Generation Partnership Project, be called for short 3GPP) propose multimedia broadcast multi-broadcasting business (Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service, be called for short MBMS), MBMS is a kind of technology transmitting data from a data source to multiple target, achieve sharing of network (comprising core net and Access Network) resource, improve the utilance of Internet resources (especially air interface resource).The MBMS of 3GPP definition can not only realize multicast and the broadcast of the classes of messages of plain text low rate, broadcast and the multicast of high-speed multimedia service can also be realized, multiple abundant video, audio frequency and multimedia service are provided, this has complied with the trend of following Mobile data development undoubtedly, for the development of the third generation (3rd Generation is called for short 3G) digital communication provides better business prospect.
At present, in LTE version 9 (R9) system, introduce MBMS, and be optimized in LTE version 10 (R10).MBMS carries in systems in which needs the common transport of control signal (also referred to as MBMS control signal) and user data (also referred to as MBMS) to realize.Wherein, control signal will inform that receiving terminal is (as terminal, subscriber equipment (User Equipment, UE)) corresponding controling parameters, guides UE to go to corresponding position to receive its interested MBMS (i.e. corresponding user data).(the control information of this MBMS control signal, it comprises: the configuration information etc. of MBMS) be by multicast control channel (Multicast Control Channel in LTE system, be called for short MCCH) carry out transmitting, MBMS is undertaken transmitting by Logical Traffic Channels (Multicast Traffic Channel is called for short MTCH).
Particularly, the MBMS control signal (i.e. MCCH information) that logic channel MCCH transmits mainly comprises: multicast single frequency network (the MBMS over a Single Frequency Network corresponding to MCCH information, be called for short MBSFN) multicast resource in region, in this MBSFN region, all (ongoing) MBMS sent (or are referred to as the MBMS that started, or be referred to as the MBMS of session start), and the configuration of ongoing MBMS and attribute information; In logic channel MTCH carrying is MBMS data, generally MBMS and MTCH are carried out corresponding (such as: MBMS 1 is corresponding with MTCH1, MBMS 2 is corresponding with MTCH2), that is, what UE read that MBMS and UE read that MTCH expresses is identical implication.In a network, each MBMS uses TMGI (Temporary Mobile Group Identity, Temporary Mobile Group Identity) to identify uniquely, and each MBMS has its corresponding TMGI, is convenient to network side and UE identifies.
Wherein, the MCCH information corresponding to MBSFN area will send according to certain rule (repetition period, amendment cycle), specifically as shown in Figure 1.
As shown in Figure 1, MCCH information will repeat to send one or many (repeating in Fig. 1 to have sent 3 times) within the amendment cycle; The time interval that MCCH information repeats between transmission is referred to as the MCCH repetition period; Generally revise in the cycle by MCCH, first time of MCCH information sends and is called and sends first, and the transmission of each repetition period is called that MCCH information repeats to send, and the MCCH information repeating to send is identical with the MCCH information content sent first; Namely the MCCH cycle of revising shows within the different MCCH amendment cycles, send the content of MCCH information can not be identical; As MCCH in Fig. 1 revises the content not identical with the content in n cycle (illustrating the different content of MCCH information in Fig. 1 with oblique line square and blank square) in cycle n+1 cycle; It should be noted that within the MCCH amendment cycle, the content of MCCH information can not occur to change, and only can follow the repetition period and carry out repeating to send.The content of MCCH information only allows the boundary started in the MCCH cycle of revising to change; That is, the change of MCCH information, when can only occur in first time transmission MCCH information in the MCCH amendment cycle, changes the moment (MCCH change time) also referred to as MCCH.Such regulation, ensure that the MCCH information consistency that (many eNB (evolved Node B, modified model Node B)) sends in MBSFN area.In the present invention, if increase or upgrade or delete the counting (counting) of some MBMS on MCCH, the change of MCCH information all can be triggered, so in the present invention eNB increase on current MCCH/delete/upgrade need counting MBMS list, the moment can only be changed at MCCH.

It should be noted that, in MBSFN overlapping region, MCE can configure maximum 8 MBSFN regions to eNB, and namely MCE can be that eNB configuration has at most 8 MCCH by M2 interface.If but some MBSFN regions do not need the MBMS of counting, then then do not comprise the update time of the MCCH in these MBSFN regions in message 1, that is: these MCCH corresponding to MBSFN region do not need to be configured in and are sent to the message 1 of eNB from MCE.
Further, consider to count in flow process at MBMS Uu and count the MBMS mark (as: maximum 16 MBMS mark) that request message 2 (as: Counting Requestmessage) can only configure at most the needs counting of some, so eNB starts MBMS Uu count the restriction that flow process has maximum MBMS at every turn.If send in the message 1 of the M2 interface of eNB at MCE, the number being configured in the MBMS of the needs counting in (uniquely a corresponding MBSFN region) on certain MCCH is greater than the maximum traffic number (as: be greater than 16 MBMS) of eNB in startup MBMS Uu counting flow process, then eNB needs on Uu interface, start multiple MBMS Uu counting flow process successively.Because each MBMS Uu that starts on Uu interface counts flow process and needs amendment MCCH content to identify to be configured on MCCH with the MBMS counted by needs and (namely configure Counting requests message on MCCH), consider the requirement of synchronized update MCCH, now need the multiple update times configuring this MCCH.For example, the MBMS that request message configures at most 16 countings is counted when MBMS Uu counts in flow process, and for this MCCH is configured with the MBMS that 64 need counting in M2 interface message, then this MCCH needs to be updated 4 times and (that is: configures 64 MBMS at MCCH successively, each MBMS that configuration 16 is to be counted on MCCH), the MBMS of the needs counting that eNB upgrades on MCCH at every turn all needs to carry out in the MCCH cycle of revising, so be sent in the M2 interface message of eNB at MCE, need configuration 4 MCCH update time.Collocation method has multiple, as:
1) for this MCCH, configuration each time upgraded respectively;
2) for this MCCH, the time that configuration first time upgrades, and configure the interval time of follow-up MCCH renewal.As shown in the table.
Table 2:MCE is sent to the M2 interface message of eNB
Due to MCCH upgrade can only MCCH revise the cycle start carry out, so interval time is also 0 to multiple MCCH modification time.This interval time can adopt default configuration, does not namely configure this parameter, but adopts network side and the known all in advance fixed value of UE, represents that the update time of continuous print MCCH is in turn spaced apart a fixed value, as: 0,1,2 MCCH amendment cycles etc.Namely the fixed value that this silently configures (default configuration) is applicable to all MCCH: all MCCH adopt this fixed value silently configured as interval update time of MCCH.
As shown in Figure 5, if be silently configured to 0, then represent that eNB starts multiple MBMS Uu continuously and counts flow process, that is: eNB starts next MBMS Uu immediately after starting first time MBMS Uu counting flow process and counts flow process.
As shown in Figure 6, if be silently configured to 1, then represent that eNB is spaced apart 1 MCCH cycle of revising and starts multiple MBMS Uu continuously and count flow process, that is: after eNB starts first time MBMS Uu counting flow process, 1, interval MCCH revises the cycle, restarts next MBMS Uu and counts flow process.
Embodiment 2
This enforcement illustrates on M2 interface, eNB to MCE by needing the count results of MBMS counted in message 4 respectively report message 1.
After eNB receives message 1,1 or many MCCH send message 2, also referred to as Counting requests message (CountingRequest message), the MBMS in corresponding MBSFN region in the message 2 difference bearer messages that every bar MCCH sends, that is, carry the MBMS needing counting in message 2, and these business are MBMS of the needs counting in unique corresponding MBSFN region in message 1.
Table 3: be carried on the message 2 on MCCH
> > MBSFN area identification | The unique corresponding MCCH in each MBSFN region | |
> > MBMs service lists | 1 to 16 | Specify 1 to multiple MBMS needing counting |
>>>TMGI | MBMS mark adopts TMGI to represent |
UE in community reads MCCH, if find have it interested in the MBMS that MCCH configures, then send counting response message (the present invention is referred to as message 3) to eNB, in this message, carry its MBMS that is interested or that receiving.
ENB receives the message 3 that it controls the multiple UE feedbacks in lower community, can know that each MBMS that message 2 configures has multiple UE interested in or receiving it respectively.Subsequently, eNB sends report message (the present invention is referred to as message 4) to MCE, for interested to each MBMS in MCE report message 2 or the UE number received.
Owing to can comprise multiple MBMS of the needs counting in multiple MBSFN region in a piece of news 1, and the number of the above-mentioned business in each MBSFN district can have many.So can start multiple message 2 after eNB receives a piece of news 1, each message 2 has different MCCH update times.That is, MCE have sent a piece of news 1 can not obtain the MBMS configured in message 1 simultaneously count results to eNB, eNB.So the message 4 that eNB is sent to MCE can be 1 or many.
In the message 1 that situation 1:MCE sends to eNB, comprise the MBMS of the needs counting in several MBSFN regions and need the MBMS counted to be less than or equal to the number of MBMS of the needs counting in message 2 in each MBSFN region, now above-mentioned each MBSFN region only configures MCCH update time.Then: the sending method of message 4 has 2 kinds:
Method 1:eNB sends a piece of news 4 to MCE.That is, after waiting until that the count results of the MBMS of all needs countings in message 1 on all MBSFN regions all feeds back to eNB by message 3.
Specifically, message 1 comprises the MBMS of the needs counting in several MBSFN regions, correspondingly the number of the message 2 of eNB transmission equals the number in above-mentioned MBSFN region, each message 2 continues 1 MCCH and revises the cycle and the amendment cycle of every bar MCCH can different (as: can be 5.12s or 10.24 second), correspondingly UE is also different to the time of eNB feedback message 3, and the time of the statistics of the MBMS that the needs that therefore eNB obtains different MBS FN region count is also different.ENB is sent to MCE together by a piece of news 4 after can waiting until that the count results in above-mentioned all MBSFN regions is all collected.
Method 2:eNB sends multiple messages 4 to MCE, that is: once after all in message 1 on certain MBSFN region need the count results of MBMS of counting to feed back to eNB by message 3, eNB just sends message 4.
Particularly, the count results of the MBMS of the needs counting in different MBSFN regions arrives the time difference of eNB, in certain time, after eNB obtains the count results in several MBSFN regions, the count results in other MBSFN regions need not be waited for, just send message 4 to MCE, in message 4, carry the count results in these MBSFN regions.
Especially, according to current agreement, the MCCH cycle of revising has 2 kinds: 5.12s and 10.24s, so in fact eNB can send 2 message 4 to MCE.Such as: after 5.12s, eNB can obtain several and be configured to the count results that the duration is the MBSFN region of 5.12s, eNB then sends the message 4 carrying the count results in these MBSFN regions to MCE, send another a piece of news 4 again after having arrived 10.24s to MCE.
In the message 1 that situation 2:MCE sends to eNB, comprise the MBMS of the needs counting in several MBSFN regions and need the MBMS counted to allow to be greater than the number of the MBMS of the needs counting in message 2 in each MBSFN region, now above-mentioned each MBSFN region can configure one or more MCCH update time.Then: the sending method of message 4 has 2 kinds:
Method 1: with the method 1 of situation 1, that is:, after eNB always waits until that the count results in all MBSFN regions arrives eNB, eNB sends a piece of news 4 to MCE again.
Method 2: the similar method 2 with situation 1, that is: once after all in message 1 on certain MBSFN region need the count results of MBMS of counting to feed back to eNB by message 3, eNB just sends message 4, carry the count results in these MBSFN regions in message 4, and the count results in other MBSFN regions need not be waited for.
