Description

A kind of switching method of relay station, relay station and network node
Technical field
The invention belongs to moving communicating field, more particularly to a kind of switching method of relay station, relay station and network section Point.
Background technology
Relaying technique causes more and more extensive attention, is considered as B3G/4G key as a kind of emerging technology Technology.Because future wireless system or cellular system require increase coverage, higher rate transmission is supported, this is to radio communication Technology proposes new challenge.Meanwhile, system building and the cost issues safeguarded more are protruded.With transmission rate and communicate away from From increase, the energy consumption issues of battery also become prominent, and following radio communication will use higher frequency, thereby result in Pathloss attenuation it is more serious.By relaying technique, traditional one hop link can be divided into multiple multi-hop links, due to Distance Shortened, this will greatly reduce path loss, be favorably improved transmission quality, expand communication range, so as to be carried for user For more rapidly better service.
In junction network, relay station (RN) participates in link quilt of the relaying cell user (R-UE) of service between relay station Referred to as access link (Access Link), its corresponding interface is referred to as Uu interfaces, the chain between relay station and own base station (DeNB) Road is referred to as back haul link (Backhaul Link), and its corresponding interface is referred to as Un interfaces, and the macrocell that base station is directly serviced is used Link of the family (M-UE) between base station is referred to as the link (Direct Link) that direct transfers, as shown in Figure 1.
If back haul link and access link are operated on identical frequency spectrum, such relay station is referred to as with interior relaying (In-band RN).Generally, while downlink transfer from base station is being received with interior relay station, if with interior Downlink also is being carried out to relaying cell user after station, or the same of up transmitting ought carried out to base station with interior relay station When, if also receiving the up transmitting from relaying cell user with interior relay station, it can all cause with interior relay station itself Interference is produced between transmitting terminal and receiving terminal, the severe exacerbation of communication quality is caused.Relay station described herein, such as without special theory It is bright, refer both to interior relay station.
In order to avoid producing interference between the receiving terminal and transmitting terminal of relay station itself, for interior relaying, back haul link With descending or up transmission can not be carried out on access link simultaneously, and must stagger in time.Therefore, it will be used at present The subframe of relay station transmission is divided into backhaul subframe and access subframe, and the back haul link downlink and uplink of relay station is transmitted respectively under Carried out on row and up backhaul subframe, and downlink and uplink access subframe is then specially respectively used to access link downlink and uplink biography It is defeated.In addition, for descending backhaul subframe, relay station needs preceding 1 or 2 OFDM (Orthogonal in the burst Frequency Division Multiplexing, OFDM) downlink of access link is carried out on symbol, i.e., Downlink is carried out to user by descending access link, and the descending of back haul link is carried out in remaining available symbols connecing Receive, i.e., the downlink transfer from base station is received by descending back haul link.
For the work opportunity of clear and definite back haul link and working method, base station can be carried out to the backhaul subframe pattern of relay station Configuration.When the backhaul subframe pattern of relay station be configured complete, relay station also need to according to the backhaul subframe pattern configured come Control relaying cell user in corresponding backhaul subframe operation time without transmission.At present, generally, relay station passes through Uplink scheduling come realize relaying cell user in up backhaul subframe without access link uplink, in addition, relay station Descending backhaul subframe is configured to MB SFN (Multicast Broadcast Single Frequency on access link Network, multimedia multicast Single Frequency Network) subframe, signaled by existing transmission rule relaying cell user in no other In the case of access link reception is carried out in preceding 1 or 2 OFDM symbol only in the MBSFN sub-frame, and in the MBSFN sub-frame Other OFDM symbols on received without access link.
For FDD (Frequency Division Duplexing, FDD) system, descending backhaul subframe pattern by High level is configured by parameter SubframeConfigurationFDD, and up backhaul subframe pattern is by descending backhaul subframe Pattern is determined, has 255 kinds of patterns at present, and pair with TDD (TimeDivision Duplexing, time division duplex) system, under Row and up backhaul subframe pattern are configured by high level by parameter SubframeConfigurationTDD, shared at present 19 kinds of patterns.
When the relay station with locomotive function in moving process away from source base station coverage and progress into target During the coverage of base station, or, for load balancing or other reasonses, it is necessary to by the own base station of relay station by source base station more When being changed to target BS, relay station also needs to complete a handoff procedure while service is provided to relaying cell user, breaks Open the connection with source base station and set up the connection with target BS.In handoff procedure, relay station needs to be advised in target BS The upper alternating transmission related to target BS progress Stochastic accessing (RACH) of fixed opportunity, and then complete connection foundation.
At present it has been specified that, relay station carry out random access procedure in, can temporarily by backhaul subframe configure hang up, i.e., in When station is in the alternating transmission related to target BS progress Stochastic accessing, without considering that any backhaul subframe pattern is limited.Cause This, target BS is the opportunity of the progress random access procedure of relay station defined, is just likely to relay station to relaying cell Conflict is produced between the opportunity that user carries out access link service, a large amount of waste of radio resources, relaying cell service quality are caused Reduction, service continuity can not be protected, and user experiences going offline for variation, channel measurement misalignment, or even large area user.
