Embodiment
For the realization principle and the technique effect of the clearer explanation embodiment of the invention, at first the existing relevant regulations of marking PRACH (Physical Random Access Channel, Physical Random Access Channel) resource location is described below.
A PRACH channel accounts for 6 PRB resources in the LTE system.Adopt Format 0~3 o'clock, subcarrier spacing is 1.25KHz, and 1 PRACH channel comprises 864 subcarriers (1.08MHz), and length is on 839 subcarriers in the middle of 839 preamble (leading) sequence is mapped to.Adopt Format4 (only to be used for TDD (Time Division Duplexing, time division duplex) in the time of system), subcarrier spacing is 7.5KHz, and 1 PRACH channel comprises 144 subcarriers (1.08MHz), and length is on 139 subcarriers in the middle of 139 preamble sequence is mapped to.The shared running time-frequency resource of PRACH is determined by eNB (enode b, i.e. base station), and notifies UE by system message.
The LTE-FDD system, owing to adopt the TYPE1 frame structure, the sub-frame of uplink number is definite and abundant in the 10ms radio frames, the transmission of PRACH is not subjected to the restriction of frame structure, can initiate in the subframe arbitrarily.Allow to send a PRACH in each sub-frame of uplink at most, promptly PRACH only distinguishes by time domain, and does not distinguish by frequency domain, and first can be used for the call number of the Physical Resource Block of PRACH
Be defined as
Parameter wherein
For being disposed by higher level parameters prach-FrequencyOffset, span is:
The TD-LTE system, because the restriction of time division duplex characteristic, different uplink-downlink configuration causes one, and the sub-frame of uplink number in the radio frames is uncertain and number is few.In order to guarantee that under sub-frame of uplink situation on the low side UE sends the real-time of PRACH, allows a subframe to send a plurality of PRACH, i.e. the transmission of PRACH need be carried out the running time-frequency resource mapping.The running time-frequency resource mapping ruler is: distribute on time domain earlier, if the time-domain resource scarcity considers to place a plurality of PRACH again on frequency domain.The configuration of PRACH is by one group of parameter
Indicate.Wherein, f

For preamble format 0-3:
For preamble format 4:
Wherein, n
fBe System Frame Number, N
SPIt is the number of ascending-descending subframes switching point in the radio frames.
The PRACH resource of format0-3 is the Resources allocation successively of bilateral mapping, is monolateral mapping for Format 4.
From above-mentioned analysis as can be known, in the LTE system, the PRACH channel may be distributed on 6 continuous arbitrarily in system bandwidth PRB resources.
Learn through investigation, the bandwidth of operation of UE is more than or equal to 20MHz or lower, radio-frequency devices cost to UE does not have influence substantially, but device cost such as A/D (mould/number), D/A (D/A) transducer and baseband processor, just relatively closer with the relation of bandwidth, reduce bandwidth and can effectively reduce above-mentioned device cost.
Based on above analysis, the scheme of at present potential reduction bandwidth has following two kinds:
Scheme 1: radio frequency reduces the mode of bandwidth
Under this scheme, terminal adopts the narrower radio-frequency devices of bandwidth, such as the filter, power amplifier, transceiver, the duplexer (or switch) (following is example with bandwidth 5MHz) that adopt the maximum 5MHz of support amount of bandwidth.By adopting the narrower filter of bandwidth, only the useful signal in the leaching and the little bandwidth terminals bandwidth of sampling has reduced the demand to buffer memory, and after reducing bandwidth, under the prerequisite of speed that fully satisfies M2M communication and delay requirement, also reduced the sampling rate requirement of ad/da converter; And FFT (fast Fourier) conversion, channel estimating, channel equalization and input and HARQ (the Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request of Base-Band Processing part, mix automatic repeat requests) processing also along with the reduction of bandwidth is able to effective reduction, further reduce the Base-Band Processing device conversion speed of UE and the demand of HARQ buffer memory device, thereby effectively reduce cost.
Scheme 2: radio frequency bandwidth does not reduce, the mode that the bandwidth of Base-Band Processing part reduces
Because bandwidth does not have influence for the cost of UE radio frequency part, so this programme proposes not reduce the bandwidth of UE radio-frequency devices, only reduce the bandwidth of UE Base-Band Processing part, promptly reduce the bandwidth of the parts such as processing of ad/da converter, FFT conversion, channel estimating, channel equalization and input and HARQ, this scheme can be obtained the approximate effect that reduces cost with scheme 1 substantially.A kind of scheme of enhancing has also been proposed on this basis, promptly wish to obtain the frequency selectivity gain of descending scheduling, if so, then the Subframe cache size of terminal, AD sampling bandwidth, FFT Size then can't reduce bandwidth of operation, thereby, there is certain cost to increase than scheme 1.
Though can comparatively effectively reduce the cost of terminal in the such scheme 1, some significant disadvantage are arranged:
(1) down control channel and ascending control channel and existing LTE system are incompatible;
(2) if design ascending control channel separately, a kind of possible scheme is to carry out the uplink feedback channel design at little bandwidth frequency band according to the design of the existing up PUCCH of LTE.But this kind mode can be brought serious resource fragmentation problem to conventional terminal, when the medium and small bandwidth terminals of system exists, tradition LTE UE (conventional terminal need have the single carrier emission characteristics) can't dispose the resource of full bandwidth and carry out the business transmission, thereby can't obtain higher peak rate;
(3) because existing LTE standard to the position regulation of PRACH resource, can appear at the optional position of system uplink frequency range, then reduce bandwidth after, the up PRACH of terminal sends and can not design based on existing standard, has compatibility issue.
Though can comparatively effectively reduce the cost of terminal in the such scheme 2, also there is comparatively significant disadvantages, be divided into following two kinds of situations:
Situation A: do not consider the frequency selectivity gain, then can obtain the effect that reduces cost that is similar to scheme 1 substantially, but the shortcoming of this scheme is similar with scheme 1 in such cases:
(1) down control channel and ascending control channel and existing LTE system are incompatible;
(2) if this kind scheme designs ascending control channel separately, a kind of possible scheme is to carry out the uplink feedback channel design at little bandwidth frequency band according to the design of the existing up PUCCH of LTE.But this kind mode can be brought serious resource fragmentation problem to conventional terminal, when the medium and small bandwidth terminals of system exists, tradition LTE UE (conventional terminal need have the single carrier emission characteristics) can't dispose the resource of full bandwidth and carry out the business transmission, thereby can't obtain higher peak rate;
(3) because existing LTE standard to the position regulation of PRACH resource, can appear at the optional position of system uplink frequency range, then reduce bandwidth after, the up PRACH of terminal sends and can not design based on existing standard, has compatibility issue.
Situation B: under the situation of considering the frequency selectivity gain, can't further reduce sampling rate, Subframe (subframe) cache size of AD/DA sampler, FFT Size etc., so the shortcoming of this mode comprises:
(1) cost of comparing scheme 1 is significantly increased, and particularly the cost of Subframe can't effectively reduce;
(2) the down control channel compatibility issue still exists;
(3) the Subframe buffer memory can't effectively reduce.
In order to address the above problem, the embodiment of the invention has proposed a kind of downlink data transmission scheme, to reduce terminal bandwidth.In this scheme, RF (radio frequency) part does not reduce bandwidth, and the downlink system control area receives bandwidth and do not reduce, and only the data Base-Band Processing is partly reduced bandwidth.
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing the embodiment of the invention is described in detail.
With the LTE system is example, and from the network side angle, the downlink data transmission flow process that the embodiment of the invention provides can be as shown in Figure 2.The network equipment in this flow process is generally eNB, and terminal is meant little bandwidth terminals, and promptly bandwidth is less than the terminal of LTE system bandwidth, as the MTC terminal.Dispose at least one downlink data transmission frequency band in the data field of the downlink system working band of this LTE system, and the bandwidth of each downlink data transmission frequency band is less than the LTE system shared bandwidth in control channel zone.Wherein, the territory, system control area is meant the shared symbol of PDCCH channel in the LTE subframe, and the system data territory is meant other symbols that remove the shared outer symbol of PDCCH channel in the LTE subframe.This flow process can comprise:
Step 200, eNB gives terminal by sending signaling to terminal with downlink data transmission band information (comprising frequency position and the bandwidth) indication of this terminal.Certainly, the downlink data transmission band information of also can having made an appointment between terminal and the network side, like this, the network equipment just can pass through its downlink data transmission band information of signaling terminal.
Step 201, eNB sends control signaling to terminal by the down control channel in the territory, LTE system control area, and UE carries out downlink data transmission in the downlink data transmission frequency band with scheduling;
Step 202, eNB carries out transfer of data to the terminal on this downlink data transmission frequency band in the downlink data transmission frequency band.
Wherein, when the network equipment was dispatched terminal, the indicated frequency resource scope of resource indication bit was in the whole LTE system works bandwidth or is limited in the above-mentioned downlink data transmission frequency range in the down control channel.
Because the embodiment of the invention does not reduce bandwidth to the RF part, therefore can continue to use the transmit mechanism of existing down control channel, that is, eNB sends the down control channel of terminal in the shared bandwidth range in territory, LTE system control area.The shared bandwidth range in territory, LTE system control area can be a LTE system works bandwidth.
Because the embodiment of the invention reduces for the bandwidth of the downlink data transmission signal of terminal, therefore need make terminal know downlink data transmission band information (is the shared frequency information of downlink data transmission, comprise frequency position, amount of bandwidth etc.) so that receive the downlink data that network side sends in frequency band.The frequency position and the bandwidth information of downlink data transmission frequency band, can arrange consistent in advance with end side at network side, can (be the frequency range of downlink data dispatching also by the frequency resource scope of network side (as eNB) by signaling terminal downlink data transmission place bandwidth, such as the PRB scope, the service dispatching of each terminal falls in this band limits).
Because the LTE system can adopt the mode of identical networking, so there is the problem of adjacent sub-district co-channel interference.In the different time periods, the co-channel interference situation that each frequency subband is subjected in the LTE system works frequency band may be different, so exist the demand of adjacent coordinating district interference, there is time dependent demand the position of the frequency location of M2M transfer of data in the LTE system bandwidth thus, so the band information of downlink data transmission may change.
Under by the situation of network side by the frequency resource scope of signaling terminal downlink data transmission place bandwidth, when the downlink data transmission band changed, the handling process of network side was further comprising the steps of:
Step 203, eNB is notified to terminal by signaling with downlink data transmission frequency band change information.
Need to prove that in actual applications, the performed downlink data transmission flow process of eNB does not have the strict sequential order requirement.Such as, eNB can repeatedly carry out transfer of data to terminal at the terminal connecting system and in a period of time after terminal sends down control channel in the downlink data transmission frequency band; For another example, the variation of downlink data transmission frequency band may take place repeatedly, and at each variation, eNB will be notified to terminal with downlink data transmission frequency band change information by signaling.
In the flow process shown in Figure 2, eNB is the frequency resource scope of the downlink data transmission place bandwidth of indicating terminal in the following manner:
Mode 1: the PDCCH indicating mode of common configuration
This mode is meant that eNB passes through the shared frequency information of PDCCH notice terminal downlink data transmission in the common search space of down control channel, and the shared frequency information of downlink data transmission can comprise frequency position, amount of bandwidth etc.
Further,, can be the public RNTI of terminal distribution (Radio Network Temporary Identifier, Radio Network Temporary Identifier), be designated as M-RNTI in order to distinguish little bandwidth terminals and traditional LTE terminal.Can be M-RNTI of all terminal configuration according to demand specifically, all like this terminal configuration be worked on a frequency; Also can be for the different frequency position or/and the different RNTI of the terminal configuration of amount of bandwidth (the identical frequency and the bandwidth of terminal use of common same type, network side can be classified little bandwidth terminals according to certain rule, classify such as foundation amount of bandwidth or ability rating), for example M-RNTI-1, M-RNTI-2 ... M-RNTI-n, wherein each RNTI corresponding downlink data transmission frequency resource is identical, like this can be with (amount of bandwidth also can be different) the enterprising industry affair transmission in the frequency points corresponding position of dissimilar terminal configuration.
In order to save the shared resource of above-mentioned PDCCH signaling, the mode that the PDCCH signaling can dispose in the employing cycle is carried out resource distribution.During specific implementation, can in standard, arrange information such as cycle of PDCCH signaling and place radio frames, subframe; Also can inform this PDCCH signaling configuration information of terminal by broadcast signaling by network side.
Mode 2:BCH (Broadcasting Channel, broadcast channel) advice method
Network can dispose one or more little bandwidth for transmission frequency bands at the data field of LTE system bandwidth, and can be at PBCH (Physical Broadcasting Channel, Physical Broadcast Channel) the shared frequency information of notice terminal downlink data transmission in the channel comprises frequency position, amount of bandwidth.Network adopts certain rule (classifying such as foundation amount of bandwidth or ability rating) to classify to little bandwidth terminals, and notifies the downlink data transmission band information of all types of terminals successively in PBCH according to the classification of terminal.Concrete, the network equipment is indicated the bit of the downlink data transmission band information (frequency band position, amount of bandwidth) of all types of terminals in the PBCH channel Mapping according to the order of agreement.For further saving number of bits, network in advance with the terminal information such as frequency band position, amount of bandwidth and each data frequency numbering of each transfer of data of agreement earlier, network only shine upon the bit of the numbering of the downlink data transmission frequency band of indicating each Terminal Type employing in PBCH according to the order of agreement.
A kind of specific implementation is: in the reserved bit of existing PBCH channel, add above-mentioned indication information (being the shared frequency information of downlink data transmission); Another kind of mode is: for terminal is provided with new PBCH channel separately to carry above-mentioned indication information (being the shared frequency information of downlink data transmission).If adopt the mode of newly-increased PBCH channel, then the transmit mechanism of PBCH such as resource mapping, cycle etc., can be continued to use current mechanism.The operation that terminal is obtained behind the above-mentioned mib information is consistent with mode one, repeats no more here.
In the flow process shown in Figure 2, eNB can be in the following manner be notified to terminal with the frequency band change information of downlink data transmission:
Mode 1:eNB adopts system message update mechanism notice
Under this mode, when the downlink data transmission band information (as the frequency indication information) of above-mentioned PDCCH channel or PBCH channel bearing when changing, the mechanism notice terminal of network using system message update, to the paging indication of terminal transmitting system message alteration, inform above-mentioned PDCCH channel or PBCH channel after terminal reads renewal.For reducing the influence to existing H2H terminal, this beep-page message can send separately at the M2M terminal, such as the P-RNTI scrambling of adopting terminal-specific.
Mode 2:eNB adopts PDCCH order notice
To carrying out the terminal of professional transmission, the information that eNB can adopt the mode that sends terminal-specific PDCCH order in the exclusive space of terminal to change with the frequency band of notifying the terminal downlink data transmission more timely; The mode that eNB adopts PDCCH order (order) notice terminal frequency band to change, specifically comprise: the band information (as frequency position, amount of bandwidth) eNB carries renewal in PDCCH order order after, perhaps eNB removes to read the channel (PDCCH channel or BCH channel as the aforementioned) of the band information of bearing downlink transfer of data by PDCCH order order indicating terminal, to obtain the band information of the downlink data transmission after the renewal.
Mode 3:eNB adopts the PDCCH notice
To carrying out the terminal of professional transmission, eNB can adopt in the exclusive space of terminal and send the mode of terminal-specific PDCCH to notify the frequency band change information of terminal downlink data transmission more in time.Particularly, can in the PDCCH signaling that terminal is dispatched, increase some bit indications, be used to indicate the frequency band change information of downlink data transmission, the method for bit indication includes but not limited to adopt the bitmap indicating mode or the valuetag indicating mode of frequency.Bitemap is a bit sequence, adopts the bitemap indicating mode to be meant: working frequency points is to a bit in should sequence, if eNB is this bit set, then the indicating terminal downlink traffic transmission will be transmitted on the frequency range of this bit correspondence.Valuetag is a count value, adopt the mode of valuetag indication to be meant: eNB is to frequency of the every replacing of the scheduling of terminal, then the value represented of valuetag adds 1, whether terminal can change according to the valuetag of twice scheduling in front and back is obtained whether change information of frequency range, if the terminal frequency range of judging transfer of data according to the indication of valuetag changes, then the terminal channel (PDCCH channel or BCH channel as the aforementioned) that needs retaking of a year or grade bearing downlink transfer of data is further to obtain the band information of the downlink data transmission after the variation.
The signaling terminal that mode 4:eNB adopts PDSCH (Physical Downlink Shared Channel, Physical Downlink Shared Channel) to carry
The signaling of carrying the frequency change information is transmitted in the PDSCH channel, concrete information can comprise, the target frequency, and entry-into-force time information, be that network switches concrete some switching time (radio frames, subframe) that frequency carries out transfer of data, then when arriving some switching time, terminal is only sampled the data of target frequency bands to store and is treated subsequent treatment.
With the LTE system is example, and corresponding to the handling process of above-mentioned network side, from the terminal angle, the downlink data transmission flow process that the embodiment of the invention provides can be as shown in Figure 3.This flow process can comprise:
Step 300, terminal is obtained downlink data transmission band information (comprising frequency position and bandwidth) according to the signaling that the network equipment sends.Certainly, the downlink data transmission band information of also can having made an appointment between terminal and the network side, like this, the network equipment just can pass through its downlink data transmission band information of signaling terminal.
Step 301, terminal receives the control signaling that the network equipment sends by the down control channel in the territory, LTE system control area.
Step 302, terminal is controlled signaling according to this, on the downlink data transmission frequency band of this terminal, receives the downlink data that the network equipment sends.
In the specific implementation, terminal reads PCFICH (Physical Control Format Indicator Channel, Physical Control Format Indicator Channel) to obtain the shared symbol numbers in descending control area, only the symbol with the control area carries out the full bandwidth sampling, for guaranteeing the performance of control channel, behind the symbol sampler of data area, pilot data in the sampled data optionally can be received, carry out the channel estimating of control area based on the pilot frequency sequence in the pilot tone of control area and binding data zone, go out channel estimating final result in the symbol of control area based on above-mentioned channel estimation results interpolation calculation, detect based on this full bandwidth (being LTE system works bandwidth) that carries out down control channel and handle.
Terminal is when downlink data receiving, at first carry out total system bandwidth range data sampling and carry out the FFT processing, then according to the band information of downlink data transmission, read the sampled data in the respective bandwidth scope and put into buffer so that carry out follow-up Base-Band Processing, data in other non-its bandwidth are then directly abandoned, and then effectively reduce the demand of the Subframe buffer of terminal.Wherein, downlink data transmission band information (comprising frequency position and bandwidth) can be consistent with the network side agreement in advance, also can obtain by the signaling that receives the network side transmission, as, signaling according to the detected bearing downlink data transmission frequency band of the down control channel testing process information in the full bandwidth scope obtains the downlink data transmission band information.
Because the LTE system can adopt the mode of identical networking, so there is the problem of adjacent sub-district co-channel interference.In the different time periods, the co-channel interference situation that each frequency subband is subjected in the LTE system works frequency band may be different, so exist the demand of adjacent coordinating district interference, there is time dependent demand the position of the frequency location of M2M transfer of data in the LTE system bandwidth thus, the band information of downlink data transmission may change, therefore further, also can may further comprise the steps:
Step 303, terminal are obtained downlink data transmission frequency band change information, and according to the downlink data transmission frequency band change information that gets access to, carry out downlink data transmission on the downlink data transmission frequency band after the renewal.
Need to prove that in actual applications, the performed downlink data transmission flow process of terminal does not have the strict sequential order requirement.Such as, terminal can repeatedly receive the transfer of data of network side at connecting system and in a period of time after reading down control channel in the downlink data transmission frequency band; For another example, the variation of downlink data transmission frequency band may take place repeatedly, and at each variation, terminal all will be carried out the adjustment of downlink data transmission frequency band.
In the described flow process of Fig. 2, the mode of the frequency resource scope of eNB indicating terminal downlink data transmission place bandwidth, in the flow process shown in Figure 3, terminal can be obtained the band information of downlink data transmission by following corresponding manner:
Mode 1: the PDCCH indicating mode of common configuration
Terminal is obtained the band information of the downlink data transmission of wherein carrying at the common search space search PDCCH of down control channel.Use at PDCCH under the situation of terminal RNTI scrambling, terminal is used to the M-RNTI of its distribution (as using the M-RNTI of type correspondence under this terminal) PDCCH is carried out descrambling, if can correctly resolve PDCCH, then obtain the downlink data transmission band information that wherein carries, otherwise abandon this PDCCH signaling.Terminal can be carried out the search of PDCCH according to the configuration information of PDCCH, and the configuration information of PDCCH can be arranged at network side and end side in advance, and perhaps terminal obtains the configuration information of PDCCH according to the broadcast signaling of network side.
Because SIB is the sampling scheduled transmission, may dispatch any frequency location in the LTE system bandwidth, so terminal reads the PDCCH of M-RNTI information scrambling earlier before receiving SIB message, thereby obtain the shared frequency location information of its transfer of data (comprising the SIB transmission), when downlink data receives, the signals collecting of the frequency location that SIB information may be able to be occurred is waited for next step processing such as detection in buffer.
Mode 2:BCH advice method
If the network equipment is indicated the downlink data transmission band information (comprising frequency position and bandwidth) of all types of terminals in the PBCH channel Mapping according to the order of agreement, then corresponding, terminal is according to this about definite sequence, receives the pairing downlink data transmission band information of type under this terminal that the network equipment sends in the PBCH channel.If the network equipment shines upon the numbering of the data transmission frequency band of each Terminal Type employing of indication in PBCH according to the order of agreement, then corresponding, terminal is according to this about definite sequence, what receive that the network equipment sends in the PBCH channel is used to represent the frequency position of downlink data transmission frequency band and the numbering of bandwidth, determines corresponding downlink data transmission band information according to this numbering.
In the described flow process of Fig. 2, the mode of the frequency band change information of eNB indicating terminal downlink data transmission, in the flow process shown in Figure 3, terminal can be obtained downlink data transmission band information after the renewal by following corresponding manner:
Mode 1: terminal receives the paging indication of the system message alteration that eNB sends, and obtains PDCCH or PBCH after the renewal according to this indication, and obtains downlink data transmission band information after the renewal according to the PDCCH after upgrading or PBCH.Use in paging indication under the situation of RNTI scrambling of terminal, terminal is at first used the P-RNTI descrambling paging indication into its distribution, if can resolve this paging indication then carry out above-mentioned processing, otherwise abandons this paging indication.
Mode 2: terminal is obtained downlink data transmission band information after the renewal according to this PDCCH order order after the exclusive space of terminal receives terminal-specific PDCCH order order.A kind of specific implementation is: carried the downlink data transmission band information after upgrading in the PDCCH order order, in such cases terminal directly according to PDCCH order order can obtain downlink data transmission band information after the renewal; Another kind of specific implementation is: PDCCH order order indicating terminal removes to read the channel (PDCCH channel or BCH channel as the aforementioned) of bearing downlink data transmission frequency band information, in such cases, terminal reads respective channel according to this indication, obtains the downlink data transmission band information from the channel signaling that reads.
Mode 3: terminal is obtained downlink data transmission band information after the renewal according to this PDCCH signaling after the exclusive space of terminal receives PDCCH.A kind of specific implementation is: the bitmap that carries frequency in the PDCCH signaling, terminal will be wherein bit value be the pairing frequency of bit of " 1 " (can certainly be " 0 ") frequency that carries out downlink data transmission after as renewal according to system's agreement; Another kind of specific implementation is: the valuetag that carries frequency in the PDCCH signaling, whether terminal changes according to the valuetag of twice scheduling in front and back is judged whether the downlink data transmission band information changes, if the valuetag difference of twice scheduling in front and back, illustrate that then the downlink data transmission band information changes, in such cases, the channel of terminal retaking of a year or grade bearing downlink data transmission frequency band information (PDCCH channel or BCH channel as the aforementioned) is further to obtain the downlink data transmission band information after the variation.
Mode 4: terminal receives the PDSCH signaling that eNB sends, and obtains the downlink data transmission band information after the renewal of wherein carrying.
In addition, eNB also can not notify the change information of terminal downlink data transmission frequency band, and the variation that terminal can the spontaneous transmission band of line data now, and obtain downlink data transmission band information after the renewal specifically can be in the following ways:
Mode 5: terminal is monitored the channel (as PDCCH channel or PBCH channel) of bearing downlink data transmission frequency band information
Under this mode, the information that network side does not adopt the professional transmission of other signaling terminal datas frequency to change, terminal was monitored according to the cycle of above-mentioned PDCCH signaling or PBCH signaling always, can obtain downlink data transmission frequency band change information at any time thus.
Mode 6: this mode is the prioritization scheme of aforesaid way 5
Terminal in case obtain the downlink data transmission band information for the first time, no longer detects above-mentioned channel after above-mentioned PDCCH channel or PBCH channel are detected.In the process of eNB dispatch terminal, terminal is indicated according to PDCCH, if find to detect wrong (CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check, cyclic redundancy check (CRC)) verification failure), no matter be because channel moment deterioration or eNB have changed the frequency band of scheduling, terminal is according to the above-mentioned channel of configuration retaking of a year or grade of above-mentioned PDCCH channel or PBCH channel, with obtain the information whether the downlink data transmission frequency band change and change after the downlink data transmission band information.This mode is compared with mode 5, can reduce the burden and the power consumption of terminal.
Mode 7: terminal is judged according to PDCCH
To carrying out the terminal of professional transmission, eNB can adopt the information of mode to notify the terminal frequency to change more in time that sends terminal-specific PDCCH in the exclusive search volume of terminal.Particularly, network can be at the PRN of LTE system bandwidth (Pseudo Random Noise code to the PRB indication information of terminal scheduling, Pseudo-Random Noise Code) indicates in the scope, terminal receives descending scheduling, in case the PRB scope of resource that judgement eNB indicates in the PDCCH signaling is not in the current Data Receiving frequency band of terminal, then terminal is according to the above-mentioned channel of configuration retaking of a year or grade of above-mentioned PDCCH channel or PBCH channel, to obtain the downlink data transmission band information.
By above description as can be seen, the embodiment of the invention is compared two kinds of existing potential bandwidth and is reduced scheme, the scheme of the embodiment of the invention is the down control channel design of compatible traditional LTE largely, does not need to redesign descending control area, reduces the influence to existing standard; Ascending control channel (comprising PUCCH channel, PRACH channel) also can with traditional LTE terminal compatibility, thereby do not have the problem of ascending resource fragment and extra upload control resource occupation.Than potential scheme 2, the embodiment of the invention can further reduce the cost of subframe.
After adopting the embodiment of the invention, because the shared frequency of resource of terminal has been limited in the little bandwidth frequency band range, when therefore eNB dispatches terminal, resource indication bit among the down control channel PDCCH can only be indicated the resource in the little bandwidth frequency band range, owing to need the band bandwidth of indication to reduce, therefore can save resource indication bit expense, reduce total number of bits of down control channel PDCCH, and then promote the transmission performance of control channel.
