Embodiment
The method of joint transmission of the present invention is as shown in Figure 1 to be comprised:
Step 101 is confirmed the anchor point network element of joint transmission, and sets up the data-interface between the MAC layer of rlc layer and another network element of anchor point network element, and the anchor point network element is arranged in different systems with another network element.
The application scenarios of joint transmission is mainly two joint transmission between the different system among the present invention, and two different systems here are for using two Radio Network Systems of different radio access technologies.When disposing the joint transmission network, generally from these two different systems, choose a network element device as the anchor point network element, for example by operator:
In the LTE system, eNB is set to the anchor point network element of joint transmission; In the UMTS system, RNC is set to the anchor point network element of joint transmission.
Wherein, the LTE system can also be divided into LTE TDD system and LTE FDD system, in these two systems, can eNB or home eNB be set to the anchor point network element of joint transmission.
Can carry out joint transmission between above-mentioned any two systems of mentioning.
Confirm after the anchor point network element that need between the MAC layer of the rlc layer of anchor point network element and another network element, set up data-interface, the foundation of this data-interface is carried out by described anchor point network element and another network element.
Need to prove here; The anchor point network element can also adopt other title; Access network elements (radio network controller among the UMTS, or the base station among the LTE), master network element or UE like the initial connecting system of UE register access network elements of (Attach) system or the like.
Step 102, the rlc layer of anchor point network element will send to UE after will directly sending to from the downlink data on upper strata and sending to UE behind the MAC layer of this network element and/or send to the MAC layer of another network element through data-interface.
The essence of this step is; The rlc layer of anchor point network element will be distributed from the downlink data on upper strata (has two paths available; Promptly directly send to the MAC layer of this network element, send to the MAC layer of another network element through data-interface); When distributing, also adopt following mode to carry out the selection in path:
Mode one: the rlc layer of anchor point network element sends to a quality of wireless channel side preferably with downlink data.Concrete, can obtain the quality of wireless channel of the sub-district that each system controlled through the measurement and report of UE, after comparing, downlink data is sent to the quality of wireless channel MAC layer of network element in the side system preferably.
