In the embodiment of the invention, the carrier selection process can be used as user equipment to divide the service data to be transmitted into a plurality of parts according to a certain method, and the parts are distributed to a plurality of carriers so as to participate in resource distribution and data transmission on the plurality of carriers in parallel; when the scheduling is performed for multiple rounds, the carrier selection process is performed once in each round of scheduling.

PRB of each service of all user equipments in the systemQoS(i) Taken together are the PRBc。
Step 3, when PRB existsc>PRBc_totalWhen the carrier is used, the network side traverses the service data to be transmitted of the user equipment on the carriers, tries to distribute all or part of the service data to be transmitted of the user equipment to other carriers until PRB is metc<=PRBc_totalOr the service data to be transmitted of all the user equipment on the carriers are traversed; wherein PRBc_totalIs the total number of available PRBs for each carrier.
Specifically, assume that the total number of available PRBs for each carrier is PRBsc_totalWhen PRB existsc>PRBc_totalWhen the carriers are used, it is indicated that the carriers are overloaded and cannot meet the service QoS requirements of all the user equipment, and all or part of service data to be transmitted of part of the user equipment needs to be distributed to other carriers; by traversing the traffic of all user equipments on these carriers, it is attempted to allocate them to other carriers until the PRB is fulfilledc<=PRBc_totalOr all the services on the carriers complete traversal; when no PRB existsc>PRBc_totalAnd (3) no operation is required.
In the embodiment of the present invention, a network side attempts to allocate all or part of service data to be transmitted of a user equipment to other carriers, including: sequencing the carriers selectable by the service at the network side, wherein the carriers selectable by the service meet PRB (physical resource block) in the activated carriers of the user equipment to which the service belongsc<PRBc_totalThe carrier wave of (2); the network side sequentially executes the following operations on the carriers selectable by each service according to the ordered sequence: calculating the PRB number required by meeting the QoS requirement of the service when the service is transmitted on the current carrierQoSIf the total number of PRBs occupied by the existing user equipment on the currently traversed carrier c1 is PRBsc1,PRBc1+PRBQoS<=PRBc1_totalThen, the allocation is successfully attempted, the service is allocated to the currently traversed carrier c1, and the total number of occupied PRBs on the carrier c1 is updatedc1=PRBc1+PRBQoSUpdating the total number of occupied PRBs (PRBs) on the original carrier c0 of the servicec0=PRBc0-PRBQoS(ii) a If PRBc1+PRBQoS>PRBc1_totalIf the carrier wave can not be allocated to the current carrier wave, continuously traversing the next service optional carrier wave; if the carrier capable of accommodating the service is not found after traversing all the service selectable carriers, the service fails to be allocated to other carriers, and the service still remains in the original carrier to participate in scheduling.
In the process of allocating each service attempt to other carriers, the process of ordering the service-selectable carriers includes: sorting the carriers selectable by the service according to a certain criterion; such as: sequencing based on the residual resource amount of each carrier or the channel quality of the user equipment on each carrier; when calculating the number of PRBs required for meeting the QoS requirement when the service is transmitted on the current carrier, the method in step 2 can be used to calculate the number of PRBs required for meeting the QoS requirement when the service is transmitted on the current carrierQoS。

It should be noted that the above description of the method is based on the user equipment performing carrier selection, that is, the user equipment is used as the granularity to select carriers, and the user equipment only selects one carrier each time the carrier is selected; the method is also suitable for selecting the carriers by taking the service as the granularity, namely different services of the same user equipment can select different carriers, and on the basis, a user can select a plurality of carriers each time the carriers are selected.
