Description

Data transmission method and equipment
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for data transmission.
Background
With the development of communication technology, Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) technology is rapidly developing and growing, and is currently the mainstream technology in short years. The WLAN technology performs data transmission in a half duplex mode using air as a medium.
In a half-duplex data transmission mode, more than two devices, such as an Access Point (AP) or a workstation (Station), on the same frequency channel cannot simultaneously transmit a data frame, and if at least two devices are transmitting data frames on the same frequency channel at the same time, each device may be interfered by other devices transmitting data frames and cannot correctly transmit data frames to a corresponding receiving device. In the prior art, a Carrier Sense Multiple Access with connectivity aveidance (CSMA/CA) mechanism is used to avoid a situation that two devices transmit data on a certain frequency channel at the same time. Specifically, before a certain device sends a certain data frame, it needs to monitor whether other devices are sending the data frame. If no other device is transmitting the data frame, directly transmitting the data frame; if other equipment is sending data frame, the equipment waits for a frame interval and random back-off time after finishing sending data frame, and then monitors whether other equipment is sending data frame again, and sends out the data frame until no other equipment is sending data frame on the channel.
In practical application, some devices are far away from each other, and interference between the devices due to data frame transmission is small and can be approximately ignored. In such a scenario, the device still transmits the data frame according to the existing transmission method, which results in low data transmission efficiency and wastes transmission resources of the channel.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
An embodiment of the present invention provides a data transmission method, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps:
101. the first device attenuates the acquired power intensity signal.
The power strength signal is used for representing the size of the transmitting power used by other equipment for transmitting the data frame. The first device may be a network device including an AP, or a terminal side device including a workstation.
102. And the first equipment compares the attenuated power intensity signal with a preset interference threshold value.
When the attenuated power strength signal is greater than or equal to the preset interference threshold value, the first device considers that the data frame sent by other sender devices can influence the receiver device corresponding to the first device to correctly receive the data frame, so that the data frame is not sent. When the attenuated power strength signal is smaller than a preset interference threshold value, the first device considers that the data frame sent by other sender devices does not or approximately does not influence the correct data frame reception of the receiver device corresponding to the first device, so that the data frame is sent. For example, as shown in fig. 2, device 1 communicates with device 3 and device 2 communicates with device 4. Device 1, as a first device, needs to send data frame a to device 3 while device 2 is sending data frame B to device 4. Device 1 and device 2 transmit data frames using the same frequency channel. The device 1 attenuates the acquired power intensity signal of the data frame B transmitted by the device 2. When the attenuated power strength signal is greater than or equal to the preset interference threshold value, the device 1 considers that the data frame B sent by the device 2 will affect the device 3 to correctly receive the data frame a, so that the data frame is not sent. When the attenuated power strength signal is smaller than the preset interference threshold value, the device 1 considers that the data frame transmission of the device 2 does not or approximately does not influence the correct reception of the data frame a by the device 3, so that the data frame is transmitted.
It should be noted that the obtained power strength signal may be a transmission power size used by the first device when the other device obtained on the port sends the data frame. The other devices may be multiple devices, the first device attenuates the multiple power strength signals on the port, and when all the attenuated power strength signals are smaller than a preset interference threshold, the first device transmits a data frame.
103. And when the attenuated power intensity signal is smaller than an interference threshold value, the first equipment sends a data frame.
As also shown in fig. 2, when the comparison result is that the attenuated power strength signal is less than the interference threshold, device 1 may transmit data frame a to device 3 on the same frequency channel while device 2 is transmitting data frame B to device 4. For the frequency channel, the channel may be simultaneously transmitting data frames by two devices at a time. Since the device 3 is far away from the device 2, the effect of the device 2 sending the data frame B on the device 3 correctly receiving the data frame a can be ignored, and in the existing CSMA/CA mechanism, even if the effect of the device 2 sending the data frame B on the device 3 correctly receiving the data frame a is ignored, the device 1 cannot send the data frame a to the device 3 while the device 2 sends the data frame B to the device 4. Compared with the existing mechanism, the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention doubles the channel utilization rate of the scene shown in FIG. 2. When 3, 4 or 5 devices simultaneously transmit data frames on a certain frequency channel, the channel utilization rate is higher, and the transmission resource utilization is more sufficient.
It should be noted that, in fig. 2, the device 1 does not decrease the actual transmission power value of the data frame B sent by the device 2, but attenuates the power intensity signal, which is acquired at the port of the device 1 and used for characterizing the transmission power of the device 2, in terms of "cognition" of the device 1 to the transmission power of the device 2, the transmission power value of the device 2 is attenuated. For a scenario that the distance between the device 2 and the device 3 is long and the interference is almost negligible, the device 1 may "think" that the interference of the device 2 to the device 1 is small in a manner of attenuating the power strength signal of the device 2, so that the device 2 can send the data frame B to the device 4 and send the data frame a to the device 3 at the same time, thereby improving the channel utilization rate.
In the embodiment of the present invention, since the devices perform interactive communication, the device on the receiving side may also transmit a data frame, and the device is the device on the transmitting side when transmitting the data frame. For example, the device 3 and the device 4 in fig. 2, and the implementation manner of the device 3 and the device 4 as sender devices to send data frames to the device 1 and the device 2 respectively is the same as the implementation manner of sending data frames by the device 1, and is not described here again.
The data transmission method provided by the embodiment of the invention can attenuate the acquired power intensity signals of other equipment on the same frequency channel before sending the data frame, wherein the power intensity signals of other equipment are used for representing the transmitting power of the data frame sent by other equipment. And if the attenuated power intensity signal is smaller than a preset interference threshold value, sending the data frame. Under the scene that the distance between the devices is far and the mutual interference is approximately ignored, a plurality of devices are allowed to simultaneously send data frames, the data transmission efficiency can be improved, and the transmission resources of the channel are fully utilized.
Further, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a method for data transmission, as shown in fig. 3, where the method is a further extension of the method shown in fig. 1, and the method includes:
301. the first device attenuates the acquired power intensity signal.
The power strength signal is used for representing the size of the transmitting power used by other equipment for transmitting the data frame. The first device may be a network device including an AP, or a terminal side device including a workstation.
In an application scenario of the embodiment of the present invention, due to the existence of the path loss, the power strength signal of the other device acquired by the first device is smaller than the actual transmission power of the other device. In the embodiment of the present invention, the power strength signal may also be used to characterize the magnitude of the transmission power passing through the path loss.
As also shown in fig. 2, the transmission power of the data frame B transmitted by the device 2 is 100 milliwatts (mW), and due to the effect of the wireless channel loss, the power intensity signal of the device 2 acquired by the device 1 at a certain distance is-75 decibels of milliwatts (dBm), which is converted to about 0.000000032 mW. For ease of calculation, the power strength signal is dBm.
The attenuation of the power intensity signal by the first device specifically includes: the first device attenuates the power intensity signal according to a preset signal attenuation value. The signal attenuation value can be set by a network administrator according to the needs of practical application, in the embodiment of the present invention, the signal attenuation value is illustrated by taking 25dBm as an example, and the signal attenuation value is not limited in practical application. As also shown in fig. 2, the transmission power of the data frame B transmitted by the device 2 is 20dBm, the power intensity signal of the device 2 acquired by the device 1 is-75 dBm, and the device 1 attenuates the power intensity signal of the device 2 to-100 dBm according to the preset signal attenuation value, that is, -75dBm-25dBm is-100 dBm.
302. And the first equipment compares the attenuated power intensity signal with a preset interference threshold value.
When the attenuated power strength signal is greater than or equal to the preset interference threshold value, the first device considers that other devices on the channel are transmitting data frames, and the transmitting power of the first device can influence the device to correctly transmit the data frames. When the attenuated power intensity signal is smaller than a preset interference threshold value, the first device considers that no other device on the channel is transmitting the data frame, and then the data frame is transmitted. The setting of the interference threshold value is related to the transmitting power of other devices, the distance between the devices and the property of the transmission medium. For example, an interference threshold for a device with a transmit power greater than 20dBm may be no greater than-80 dBm, an interference threshold for a device with a transmit power between 17dBm and 20dBm may be equal to-76 dBm, and an interference threshold for a device with a transmit power less than or equal to 17dBm may be equal to-70 dBm. The farther the distance between the devices is, the greater the path loss in the same transmission medium, so the interference threshold value is correspondingly smaller. The embodiment of the present invention is not limited to setting the interference threshold.
303. And when the attenuated power intensity signal is smaller than an interference threshold value, the first equipment sends a data frame.
For example, as also shown in fig. 2, device 1 communicates with device 3 and device 2 communicates with device 4. Device 1, as a first device, needs to send data frame a to device 3 while device 2 is sending data frame B to device 4. Device 1 and device 2 transmit data frames using the same frequency channel. Taking the power intensity signal of the device 2 measured by the device 1 as-75 dBm, the signal attenuation value as 25dBm, and the interference threshold value as-76 dBm as examples: in the current CSMA/CA mechanism, since the power strength signal is-75 dBm greater than the interference threshold value and-76 dBm, the device 1 "considers" that the device 2 is sending the data frame B, in order to avoid the device 1 and the device 2 from sending the data frame on the same channel at the same time to cause mutual interference, the device 1 will wait for the device 2 to send the data frame B, and after the device 2 has sent the data frame B, sequentially wait for a frame interval and a random back-off time, and then monitor whether there is another device in the channel sending the data frame again, if there is, continue waiting, and if not, send the data frame a. In the embodiment of the present invention, the device 1 attenuates the power strength signal of the device 2 by 25dBm, that is, attenuates the power strength signal from-75 dBm to-100 dBm, compares the attenuated power strength signal with an interference threshold value of-76 dBm, and the attenuated power strength signal is smaller than the interference threshold value, and the device 1 "considers" that the device 2 is not transmitting a data frame, so the device 1 can transmit a data frame a. In fact, device 1 is transmitting data frame B while device 2 is transmitting data frame a, except that the device considers from a "cognitive" perspective that device 2 is not transmitting data frame B. Since device 3 is located relatively far from device 2 in fig. 2, the transmit power of device 2 transmitting data frame B may be approximately negligible to device 3 correctly receiving data frame a.
Assuming that it takes 1ms (millisecond) to transmit each of the data frames a and B, the frame interval is 10ms, and the random backoff time is at least 2ms, in the CSMA/CA mechanism, it takes 14ms to transmit the data frames a and B (transmit data frame B1ms + frame interval 10ms + random backoff time 2ms + transmit data frame B1 ms). In the embodiment of the present invention, it takes at least 1ms (device 1 and device 2 transmit data frames simultaneously) to transmit data frames a and B, and at most 2ms (device 1 and device 2 transmit data frames sequentially). At least 12ms is saved compared with the existing mechanism.
304. And when the attenuated power intensity signal is greater than or equal to the interference threshold value, the first equipment attenuates the attenuated power intensity signal again.
In another application scenario of the embodiment of the present invention, the first device may attenuate the attenuated power intensity signal again according to a preset signal attenuation value. The embodiment of the invention does not limit the signal attenuation value. Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the power strength signal of the device 2 is-55 dBm, the signal attenuation value is 10dBm, and the interference threshold value is-76 dBm: after the device 1 attenuates the power intensity signal of the device 2 according to the signal attenuation value, the attenuated power intensity signal is-65 dBm and still larger than the interference threshold value. At this time, the device 1 attenuates the attenuated power intensity signal again according to the signal attenuation value to obtain a re-attenuated power intensity signal of-75 dBm. Then, step 302 is repeatedly executed, the re-attenuated power strength signal is compared with a preset interference threshold, if the re-attenuated power strength signal is smaller than the preset interference threshold, the device 1 sends the data frame a, and if the re-attenuated power strength signal is still larger than or equal to the preset interference threshold, the device 1 repeatedly executes step 304 and step 302 until the power strength signal is attenuated to be smaller than the interference threshold, and then sends the data frame a. In this application scenario, device 1 repeats step 304 and step 302 for 2 times, attenuates the power intensity signal to-85 dBm, which is less than-76 dBm of the interference threshold, and then sends data frame a.
Further, in another application scenario of the embodiment of the present invention, a packet loss rate of the first device sending the data frame may also be monitored, where the packet loss rate is a ratio of the number of lost data frames in the data frame transmission to the number of transmission data frames. When the packet loss rate is greater than or equal to the preset packet loss rate threshold value, it indicates that other devices transmitting data frames on the same frequency channel may affect the receiving device of the first device to correctly receive the data frames. As shown in fig. 4, the device 1 needs to continuously transmit two data frames a and B while the device 2 transmits the data frame C, and after the data frame a is transmitted, the packet loss rate of the data frame a is monitored.
If the packet loss rate of the data frame a is less than or equal to the packet loss rate threshold, the device 1 may attenuate the power strength signal obtained when the data frame B is transmitted according to the original signal attenuation value.
If the packet loss rate of the data frame a is greater than the packet loss rate threshold, for example, greater than 10%, when the device 1 sends the data frame B, as shown in fig. 5, the following steps need to be performed:
501. the first device reduces the signal attenuation value.
The reduction of the signal attenuation value can be achieved in two ways:
1) and halving the signal attenuation value to form a new signal attenuation value. E.g., halved from 10dBm to 5dBm, thereby reducing the degree of attenuation.
2) And subtracting a preset signal attenuation step from the preset signal attenuation value to form a new signal attenuation value. For example, the original signal attenuation value is 10dBm, the preset signal attenuation step is 2dBm, and the new signal attenuation value is 8dBm by subtracting the signal attenuation step from the original signal attenuation value.
Optionally, when the packet loss rate of the data frame a is greater than or equal to the packet loss rate threshold, the power strength signal when the data frame B is sent may not be attenuated.
502. And the first equipment attenuates the power intensity signal acquired again by using the reduced signal attenuation value.
503. And the first equipment monitors the packet loss rate of the data frame which is sent again.
If the packet loss rate of the data frame B is greater than the packet loss rate threshold, the step 501 is repeatedly executed, that is, the signal attenuation value is reduced again according to the two implementation manners of reducing the signal attenuation value in the step 501.
It should be noted that, the attenuation degree of the data frame B is reduced or the power strength signal when the data frame B is transmitted is not attenuated, and it is not guaranteed that the power strength signal when the data frame B is transmitted is certainly greater than or equal to the interference threshold, but the power strength signal when the data frame B is transmitted is reduced or not attenuated, so that the power strength signal approaches to be greater than or equal to the interference threshold. If the power strength signal when sending the data frame B is smaller than the interference threshold, it indicates that the device 2 is not sending the data frame C, and at this time, the device 1 may send the data frame B; if the power strength signal when transmitting data frame B is greater than or equal to the interference threshold, it indicates that device 2 is transmitting data frame C, and device 1 does not transmit data frame B at this time.
Further optionally, when the packet loss rate of the data frame a sent by the device 1 is greater than or equal to the packet loss rate threshold, the data frame a may also be sent again, and the way for sending the data frame B may be referred to for the data frame a to be sent again, which is not described again in this embodiment of the present invention.
The parameters that can be used for representing the correct reception of the data frame by the device in the embodiment of the present invention are not limited to the packet loss rate. For other parameters used for representing that the device correctly receives the data frame, the implementation manner is the same as that when the packet loss rate is used as the parameter, and details are not repeated here.
In the data transmission method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, before sending a data frame, the obtained power strength signals of other devices on the same frequency channel are attenuated, and the power strength signals of the other devices are used to represent the transmission power of the other devices for sending the data frame. And if the attenuated power intensity signal is smaller than a preset interference threshold value, sending the data frame. Under the scene that the distance between the devices is far and the mutual interference is approximately ignored, a plurality of devices are allowed to simultaneously send data frames, the data transmission efficiency can be improved, and the transmission resources of the channel are fully utilized.
In addition, the method for data transmission according to the embodiment of the present invention may further monitor a packet loss rate of the transmitted data frame, and when the packet loss rate is greater than a boundary value that can ensure correct transmission of the data frame, decrease or not attenuate the power strength signal in a process of subsequently transmitting the data frame, so as to preferentially ensure a transmission success rate of the data frame.
Referring to fig. 6, a data transmission device according to an embodiment of the present invention is provided to implement the methods shown in fig. 1 and fig. 3 of the present invention. The device 60 may be a network device including an AP, or a terminal side device including a workstation. As shown in fig. 6, the apparatus 60 comprises an attenuator 61, a comparator 62 and a transmitter 63, wherein,
the attenuator 61 is configured to attenuate the acquired power strength signal, where the power strength signal is used to characterize the transmission power used by other devices.
The comparator 62 is configured to compare the power intensity signal attenuated by the attenuator 61 with a preset interference threshold.
When the power strength signal attenuated by the attenuator 61 is greater than or equal to the preset interference threshold, it may be considered that there is another device on the channel transmitting a data frame, and the transmission power of the device may affect the device 60 to correctly transmit the data frame. When the power strength signal attenuated by the attenuator 61 is smaller than a preset interference threshold value, it may be considered that no other device is transmitting a data frame on the channel, and the device 60 may transmit a data frame. The setting of the interference threshold value is related to the transmitting power of other devices, the distance between the devices and the property of the transmission medium. For example, an interference threshold for a device with a transmit power greater than 20dBm may be no greater than-80 dBm, an interference threshold for a device with a transmit power between 17dBm and 20dBm may be equal to-76 dBm, and an interference threshold for a device with a transmit power less than or equal to 17dBm may be equal to-70 dBm. The farther the distance between the devices is, the greater the path loss in the same transmission medium, so the interference threshold value is correspondingly smaller. The embodiment of the present invention is not limited to setting the interference threshold.
The transmitter 63 is configured to transmit a data frame when the power strength signal attenuated by the attenuator 61 is smaller than the interference threshold value.
Further, the attenuator 61 is specifically configured to attenuate the power intensity signal according to a preset signal attenuation value.
The signal attenuation value can be set by a network administrator according to the needs of practical application, in the embodiment of the present invention, the signal attenuation value is illustrated by taking 25dBm as an example, and the signal attenuation value is not limited in practical application.
Further, when the power intensity signal attenuated by the attenuator 61 is greater than or equal to the interference threshold value, the attenuator 61 is further configured to attenuate the attenuated power intensity signal again according to the preset signal attenuation value.
Correspondingly, the comparator 62 is further configured to compare the power strength signal attenuated again by the attenuator 61 with the interference threshold value.
The transmitter 63 is further configured to transmit a data frame when the power strength signal attenuated again by the attenuator 61 is smaller than the interference threshold value.
Further, as shown in fig. 7, the apparatus 60 may further include a monitor 71 and a processor 72 for implementing the method of fig. 5 of the present invention.
The monitor 71 is configured to monitor a packet loss rate of the data frame sent by the sender 63.
The packet loss rate is the proportion of the number of lost data frames in the transmission of the data frames to the number of transmission data frames. When the packet loss rate is greater than or equal to the preset packet loss rate threshold, it indicates that the transmission of data frames by multiple devices on the same frequency channel will affect the correct reception of data frames by the device 60 on the receiving side.
When the packet loss rate monitored by the monitor 71 is greater than or equal to a preset packet loss rate threshold value:
the processor 72 is configured to halve the preset signal attenuation value, for example, from 10dBm to 5dBm, to form a new signal attenuation value; or, the method is configured to subtract a preset signal attenuation step from the preset signal attenuation value, for example, the original signal attenuation value is 10dBm, and the preset signal attenuation step is 2dBm, so as to form a new signal attenuation value.
It should be noted that, the processor 72 reduces the attenuation degree of the data frame B or does not attenuate the power strength signal when sending the data frame B, and does not ensure that the power strength signal when sending the data frame B is always greater than or equal to the interference threshold, but reduces or does not attenuate the power strength signal when sending the data frame B, so that the power strength signal approaches to be greater than or equal to the interference threshold. And determining whether to send the data frame B according to whether the power strength signal is smaller than the interference threshold is an implementation manner in the prior art.
Further, the device may further include a radio frequency link device, where the radio frequency link device is configured to obtain a power strength signal of another device. The radio frequency link means may be connected to the attenuator 61.
Alternatively, the rf receiving chain device may also include the attenuator 61, the comparator 62 and the transmitter 63.
The device for data transmission provided in the embodiment of the present invention includes, but is not limited to, an Access Point (AP) and a workstation (Station) in a WLAN, and devices or devices having a wireless data transmission function in other application scenarios also belong to the device described in the embodiment of the present invention, and are not enumerated here one by one. In addition, the data transmission device in the embodiment of the invention has the sending function and the receiving function in the method embodiment at the same time, so as to ensure that interactive communication can be carried out between the devices in practical application.
In an application scenario of the embodiment of the present invention, an AP and a Station perform wireless data interaction in a half-duplex mode, both the AP and the Station can serve as a data frame to be sent, and when one of the AP and the Station serves as a sender device, the other serves as a receiver device. As shown in fig. 8, the AP1 can only interact with data in the Station1, the AP2 can only interact with data in the Station2, and the AP1, the Station1, the AP2, and the Station2 interact with data in the same frequency channel. When AP1 is transmitting data frame a to Station1, the interference of AP1 transmit power to Station2 receiving AP2 transmitting data frame B is approximately negligible, since AP1 is far away from Station 2. Therefore, at this time, although the power strength signal of the AP1 obtained by the AP2 is higher than the interference threshold, the AP2 may attenuate the power strength signal of the AP1 to be smaller than the interference threshold, so that the AP2 may send the data frame B to the Station2 while the AP1 sends the data frame a, thereby enabling two or more devices on the same frequency channel to send data frames at the same time, and saving network resources. The implementation manner of the Station as the sending device sending the data frame to the AP is the same as the manner of sending the data frame by the AP, and is not described herein again.
The method and the device for data transmission provided by the embodiment of the invention can be suitable for various communication systems, and the systems comprise: wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) System, Long Term Evolution (LTE) System, Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) System, and the like.
By adopting the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, the acquired power intensity signals of other equipment on the same frequency channel can be attenuated before the data frame is sent. And if the attenuated power intensity signal is smaller than a preset interference threshold value, sending the data frame. Therefore, under the scene that the distance between the equipment is far and the mutual interference is approximately ignored, a plurality of pieces of equipment are allowed to simultaneously send the data frame, the data transmission efficiency can be improved, and the transmission resource of the channel is fully utilized.
