Description

Method and device for communication by utilizing white spectrum

Technical Field

The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for communicating using white spectrum.

Background

The rapid increase in the number of mobile terminals brings great challenges to the existing mobile communication bandwidth. The shortage of bandwidth resources promotes the demand for more spectrum resources, and the emergence of white spectrum utilization technology can greatly relieve the situation of wireless bandwidth resource shortage.

For the application of white spectrum technology, a method of querying a Database (Database) is currently generally adopted. The database is used for carrying out centralized management on white spectrum resources in a region.

The basic model of a white spectrum application system is shown in fig. 1. White spectrum equipment in the system refers to equipment which provides wireless Access service for other equipment by utilizing a white spectrum, and the white spectrum equipment can be a base station, an Access Point (AP) and the like; white spectrum information available for a region is maintained in a white spectrum database. The White spectrum device uses a PAWS (protocol to Access White Space) protocol to request White spectrum information available in a geographical location of the White spectrum device from a White spectrum database, and then provides a wireless Access service for other devices (e.g., UEs) by using the requested White spectrum information.

One existing implementation is: an available white spectrum database is configured in the white spectrum device. For example, white spectrum database address information available to a device may be configured in firmware of the device by a device vendor at the time of shipment of the device. However, the greatest disadvantage of this configuration is poor flexibility. For example, for a white spectrum device used in china, the white spectrum database available for use of the device in china may be configured in this way, but when the device roams to another country, the white spectrum database available to the device may need to be reconfigured and the white spectrum device user may not know which white spectrum databases are available in that country.

In order to avoid the drawbacks of the above-mentioned techniques, another conventional implementation scheme is: the method and the device realize that the white spectrum device discovers the white spectrum database by utilizing a dynamic discovery mechanism, namely when the white spectrum database is required to be used, the white spectrum device dynamically obtains an available white spectrum data address according to the information such as the geographical position (Location) of the white spectrum device. However, this implementation still has certain drawbacks. This is because the use of geographical location coordinates to identify the geographical location may have the disadvantage of being less accurate, which would allow the white spectrum device to receive less relevant white spectrum database information. For example, if the white spectrum device is used in a border, the country information where the white spectrum device is located may be erroneously determined according to the geographical location coordinate information of the device.

Therefore, in the prior art, the problem of wrong connection still exists in the process of establishing connection between the white spectrum equipment and the white spectrum database.

Detailed Description

In order to make the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention better understood and make the above objects, features and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more comprehensible, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

A wide variety of application scenarios for wireless communication, for example: cellular networks, wireless local area networks, broadband access, etc., may utilize white spectrum to increase wireless bandwidth. Spectrum regulatory agencies have allocated large amounts of spectrum resources to wireless application areas such as television signal propagation, however, the allocated spectrum resources may not be used for a certain period of time within a certain geographical area, and this portion of spectrum that is not used for a certain period of time within a certain geographical area is referred to as "white spectrum". This situation will cause a waste of spectrum resources, and therefore, the white spectrum can be reasonably reused.

In order to improve the accuracy of establishing the connection between the white spectrum device and the white spectrum database, in the first embodiment of the method for communicating by using white spectrum of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the specific communication flow is as follows:

step 201, the white spectrum device sends request information requesting access to a white spectrum database to a server, where the server is used to store attribute information of the white spectrum database.

For the application of white spectrum technology, a method for querying a database is generally adopted at present. And the white spectrum resources in a region range are managed in a centralized manner through a white spectrum database.

The attribute information recorded in the white spectrum database may include: geographical range, usage time period, etc. information that the spectrum may be used by white spectrum devices. When a terminal device needs to use white spectrum resources, the terminal initiates a white spectrum use request through the white spectrum device in the region to which the terminal device belongs, that is: the request information for requesting access to the white spectrum database can carry information such as the geographic position, the white spectrum use time, the required bandwidth and the transmission distance of the terminal equipment.

Step 202, the white spectrum device receives feedback information returned by the server, where the feedback information carries address information in attribute information of at least one white spectrum database, and first identification information used for identifying a service provider of the at least one white spectrum database.

In this step, the server that receives the request information returns feedback information to the white spectrum device that initiated the request, and the feedback information feeds back address information of the white spectrum database to the white spectrum device according to a LoST to service Protocol (LoST to geographical Location based service discovery Protocol) Protocol that is followed between the existing white spectrum device and the server.

In the existing technology for discovering a white spectrum database by using a dynamic discovery mechanism, a LoST protocol is adopted for information interaction between a white spectrum device and a server for providing attribute information of white spectrum data blocks. The LoST protocol is a service discovery protocol of a client server model, and comprises the following steps: LoST client (client) and LoST server (server). In the embodiment of the invention, the white spectrum device is used as LoST client. Providing geographical location information (Locationinfo) of the LoST client and service type information (service identifier) to be used to the LoST server by the LoST client, finding out address information of a series of servers capable of providing required service for the location according to the geographical location information and the service type information provided by the LoST client by the LoST server, wherein the provided address can be in a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) form, and returning the URLs to the LoST client; the addresses represent the addresses of servers where white spectrum databases are located; after receiving the URLs, the LoST client can find a server which can provide white spectrum database service for the URLs. For example: in emergency services (such as 110 telephone), when a user requests some emergency service, it is desirable to obtain the address of the service center capable of providing the emergency service for the location where the user is located, and the LoST server returns the address of the server capable of providing the service for the user according to the geographical location information and the service type information provided by the user. The geographical location information available in the LoST protocol includes a geographical coordinate form and two forms, namely a city street and a house number.

And the white spectrum database allocates available white spectrum resources for the terminal equipment through a corresponding algorithm according to the information provided by the terminal equipment and the white spectrum information stored by the white spectrum database.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, in the feedback information sent by the server to the white spectrum device, in addition to carrying the address information in the attribute information of the white spectrum database, more importantly, the feedback information carries first identification information for identifying a service provider of the white spectrum database. By means of this first identification information, attribute information of the service provider of the white spectrum database is provided. Accordingly, the white spectrum device that facilitates receiving the feedback information may determine a white spectrum database that may be connected directly from the first identification information.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the first identification information is used to identify a service provider of a white spectrum database, and different white spectrum databases may be provided by the same service provider, so that each white spectrum database corresponds to one first identification information, and the same first identification information may correspond to multiple white spectrum databases at the same time.

However, in the prior art, the URL list of the white spectrum database returned by the LoST server to the LoST client only includes URL information corresponding to the white spectrum database, where the URL information includes both the URL of the database matching the white spectrum device and the URL of the database not matching the white spectrum device, so that when the white spectrum device discovers the white spectrum database according to the URL list, the white spectrum device cannot determine which database corresponding to the URL is suitable for connection.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the feedback information sent by the server to the white spectrum device carries the first identification information for identifying the service provider of the white spectrum database, for example: therefore, when the white spectrum equipment receives the URL list of the white spectrum database, whether the white spectrum database corresponding to a certain URL is matched with the white spectrum equipment can be easily judged through the first identification information, and then the white spectrum equipment can directly select the matched white spectrum database to be connected.

And 203, the white spectrum equipment establishes connection with a matched white spectrum database according to the address information and the first identification information to acquire corresponding white spectrum resources.

In this step, the white spectrum device receives the feedback information returned by the server, and since the feedback information carries, in addition to the address information of the white spectrum database, first identification information for identifying a service provider of the white spectrum database, the white spectrum device may select a matched white spectrum database from the received address information of the white spectrum database according to the first identification information, thereby establishing a connection with the matched white spectrum database and obtaining a corresponding white spectrum resource.

And step 204, the white spectrum device provides access service for the terminal by using the white spectrum resource.

In this step, the white spectrum device acquires corresponding white spectrum resources from the matched white spectrum database, and then provides access service for the terminal by using the white spectrum resources.

In the embodiment of the invention, after receiving request information which is sent by white spectrum equipment and requests to access a white spectrum database, a server returns feedback information to the white spectrum equipment, the feedback information carries first identification information for identifying a service provider of the white spectrum database, and the white spectrum equipment can obtain matched white spectrum database information according to the first identification information so as to be directly connected with the matched white spectrum database. The white spectrum database which is connected by the white spectrum equipment is matched with the white spectrum database, so that the matched white spectrum database can be successfully connected, and then the white spectrum resource can be successfully obtained. Therefore, the white spectrum equipment determines the matched white spectrum database through the first identification information, and the accuracy of connection establishment between the white spectrum equipment and the white spectrum database can be greatly improved.

In the above embodiment, for the white spectrum device, whether the white spectrum database is available is influenced by whether the white spectrum device initiating the request has a subscription relationship with a manager of the white spectrum database, and only the white spectrum database having the subscription relationship can successfully establish a connection.

Since the first identification information carried in the feedback information identifies information of a service provider of the white spectrum database, the white spectrum device may determine whether a subscription relationship exists with the white spectrum database corresponding to the first identification information according to the first identification information. However, merely determining whether a subscription relationship exists is not sufficient to determine whether the current white-spectrum database is a matching white-spectrum database. There may be a plurality of white spectrum databases in which the subscription relationship exists, and further, it is further required to determine whether the white spectrum databases in which the subscription relationship exists have white spectrum resources required by the white spectrum devices. Namely: and determining at least one white spectrum database with white spectrum resources required by the white spectrum device in at least one white spectrum database with a subscription relationship with the white spectrum device as a matched white spectrum database. Finally, the white spectrum device establishes a connection with one of the matching white spectrum databases.

It should be noted that the white spectrum device may select any one of the matched white spectrum databases to connect. When the white spectrum device is successfully connected with the currently selected white spectrum database, the white spectrum device can select another white spectrum database to reinitiate the connection.

In a specific implementation process, an "administeror" attribute may be added to a URL list of feedback returned by a server, and information of a service provider of a white spectrum database is explicitly identified by the attribute, for example: manager information of a white spectrum database.

In the second embodiment of the method for communication by using white spectrum provided by the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, the specific communication flow is as follows:

301, a server receives request information which is sent by a white spectrum device and requests to access a white spectrum database, wherein the server is used for storing attribute information of the white spectrum database;

step 302, the server returns feedback information to the white spectrum device, where the feedback information carries address information in attribute information of at least one white spectrum database and first identification information of a service provider for identifying the at least one white spectrum database; wherein the first identification information is used by the white spectrum device to determine at least one matching white spectrum database; the address information is used for the white spectrum equipment to establish connection with one of the matched white spectrum databases, acquire corresponding white spectrum resources and provide access service for the terminal by using the white spectrum resources.

This embodiment corresponds to the first embodiment, and the explanation of the communication flow is from the server side. After receiving request information which is sent by the white spectrum device and requests for accessing the white spectrum database, the server returns feedback information to the white spectrum device, the feedback information carries first identification information which is used for identifying a service provider of the white spectrum database, and the white spectrum device can obtain matched white spectrum database information according to the first identification information so as to be directly connected with the matched white spectrum database. The white spectrum database which is connected by the white spectrum equipment is matched with the white spectrum database, so that the matched white spectrum database can be successfully connected, and then the white spectrum resource can be successfully obtained. Therefore, the white spectrum equipment determines the matched white spectrum database through the first identification information, and the accuracy of connection establishment between the white spectrum equipment and the white spectrum database can be greatly improved.

The invention also provides a third method embodiment for communication by utilizing the white spectrum, which can also improve the accuracy of establishing connection between the white spectrum equipment and the white spectrum database.

Referring to fig. 4, the communication flow in this embodiment includes the following steps:

step 401, the white spectrum device sends request information requesting access to a white spectrum database to a server, the server is used for storing attribute information of the white spectrum database, and the request information carries second identification information for identifying the matched white spectrum database.

In the step, the white spectrum device sends request information requesting access to the white spectrum database to the server, and in order to facilitate the white spectrum device to establish connection with the corresponding white spectrum database, the white spectrum device carries second identification information for identifying the matching white spectrum database in the sent request information. Through the second identification information, the white spectrum device carries out clear identification on the white spectrum database matched with the white spectrum device.

Since the request information carries the second identification information, the server can definitely acquire the information of the white spectrum database matched with the white spectrum device initiating the request according to the second identification information.

Step 402, the white spectrum device receives feedback information returned by the server, where the feedback information carries address information of at least one white spectrum database matched with the white spectrum device, which is determined by the server according to the second identification information.

In the step, the white spectrum device receives feedback information returned by the server, wherein the feedback information carries address information in the attribute information of the white spectrum database. It is emphasized that the white spectrum database corresponding to the address information carried in the feedback information is matched with the white spectrum device initiating the request. The server receives the request information carrying the second identification information, and then directly determines the white spectrum database matched with the white spectrum device according to the second identification information, so that the address information of the matched white spectrum database is fed back to the white spectrum device initiating the request, and the white spectrum device is conveniently and directly connected with the white spectrum database.

And 403, the white spectrum device establishes connection with one of the matched white spectrum databases according to the address information to acquire corresponding white spectrum resources.

In this step, since the address information carried in the feedback information corresponds to the white spectrum database matched with the white spectrum device, the white spectrum device can be successfully connected with the matched white spectrum database according to the address information.

In particular, there may be a plurality of white spectrum databases matching white spectrum devices simultaneously, in which case a white spectrum device establishes a connection with one of said matching white spectrum databases. The white spectrum device can select any one matched white spectrum database to connect. When the white spectrum device is successfully connected with the currently selected white spectrum database, the white spectrum device can select another white spectrum database to reinitiate the connection.

And step 404, the white spectrum device provides an access service for the terminal by using the white spectrum resource.

In the embodiment of the invention, when the white spectrum device sends the request information requesting to access the white spectrum database to the server, the request information carries the second identification information for identifying the matching white spectrum database, and the server feeds back the information of the white spectrum database matched with the white spectrum device to the white spectrum device according to the second identification information, so that the white spectrum device can be directly connected with the matching white spectrum database. Therefore, the accuracy of connection establishment between the white spectrum equipment and the white spectrum database can be improved by carrying the attribute information of the white spectrum database in the interactive information between the white spectrum equipment and the server.

Similar to the first embodiment, in the embodiment of the present invention, whether the white spectrum database is matched is also affected by whether the white spectrum device initiating the request has a subscription relationship with a manager of the white spectrum database, and only if the white spectrum database having the subscription relationship and white spectrum resources required by the white spectrum device is the matched white spectrum database, the white spectrum database can be successfully connected with the white spectrum device.

It should be noted that, in the specific implementation process, the second identification information carried in the request information may include: service provider information of the matched white spectrum database, or country code information of a country to which the white spectrum device belongs.

An application scenario is that a new attribute is added to request information sent by a white spectrum device to a server, except for carrying geographical location information, service type information, etc. of the white spectrum device, and the new attribute is used to identify service provider information of a white spectrum database acceptable by the white spectrum device, such as: if the white spectrum device has a contract relationship with some white spectrum database managers, the white spectrum device can inform the server of the information of the white spectrum database managers having the contract relationship with the white spectrum device, and after the server receives the identification information identifying the matched white spectrum database manager information, the address of the white spectrum database having the contract relationship with the white spectrum device can be returned to the white spectrum device according to the identified contract relationship. Therefore, unnecessary connection between the white spectrum equipment and a white spectrum database without a subscription relation is omitted, and the connection efficiency of the white spectrum equipment and the white spectrum database is greatly improved.

Another application scenario is that, in the prior art, the LoST server returns the URL of a server capable of providing a corresponding service to the LoST client according to the Location information, however, the geographical Location coordinate form generally used by the Location information has an inherent defect of insufficient precision, so that when the LoST server returns the server capable of providing a service according to the Location information, some irrelevant servers may be returned to the LoST client. For example: if the white spectrum device is used in a border, when the white spectrum device reports the geographical location coordinate information to the LoST server, the LoST server may erroneously determine the country in which the white spectrum device is located. Aiming at the problem that due to the fact that the accuracy of the position information in the geographic coordinate form is not enough, the LoST server returns too much inappropriate white spectrum database information, the embodiment of the invention provides the following corresponding solutions.

Because the white spectrum database maintains white spectrum information within a country range, in order to avoid the server from judging the country of the white spectrum device by mistake, the embodiment of the invention adds an attribute element representing country code information in the request information for requesting access to the white spectrum database initiated by the white spectrum information, and uses the attribute element to clearly identify the country of the white spectrum device at present.

Therefore, the server feeds back the address information of the white spectrum database in the country range corresponding to the country code to the white spectrum device according to the country code information, and the connection efficiency of the white spectrum device and the white spectrum database can be greatly improved.

In correspondence with the third method embodiment for communicating using the white spectrum, the present invention provides a fourth method embodiment for communicating using the white spectrum. As shown in fig. 5, the specific communication flow is as follows:

step 501, a server receives request information which is sent by a white spectrum device and requests to access a white spectrum database, wherein the server is used for storing attribute information of the white spectrum database, and the request information carries second identification information for identifying the matched white spectrum database;

step 502, the server determines at least one white spectrum database matched with the white spectrum device according to the second identification information;

step 503, the server returns feedback information to the white spectrum device, where the feedback information carries address information of at least one white spectrum database matched with the white spectrum device; the address information is used for the white spectrum equipment to establish connection with one of the matched white spectrum databases, acquire corresponding white spectrum resources and provide access service for the terminal by using the white spectrum resources.

In the embodiment of the invention, whether the white spectrum database is matched is also influenced by the fact that whether the white spectrum equipment initiating the request has a subscription relationship with a manager of the white spectrum database, and the white spectrum database which has the subscription relationship and white spectrum resources required by the white spectrum equipment is the matched white spectrum database, so that the white spectrum database can be successfully connected with the white spectrum equipment.

In addition, in the specific implementation process, the second identification information carried in the request information may include: service provider information of the matched white spectrum database, or country code information of a country to which the white spectrum device belongs.

Correspondingly to the first method embodiment, the present invention provides an embodiment of a white spectrum device, as shown in fig. 6, where the white spectrum device specifically includes:

a first request module 601, configured to send request information requesting access to a white spectrum database to a server, where the server is configured to store attribute information of the white spectrum database;

In the foregoing white spectrum device embodiment, the attribute information recorded in the white spectrum database may include: geographical range, usage time period, etc. information that the spectrum may be used by white spectrum devices. When a terminal device needs to use white spectrum resources, the terminal initiates a white spectrum use request through the white spectrum device in the region to which the terminal device belongs, that is: the request information for requesting access to the white spectrum database can carry information such as the geographic position, the white spectrum use time, the required bandwidth and the transmission distance of the terminal equipment.

And the feedback information returned by the server to the white spectrum equipment initiating the request feeds back the address information of the white spectrum database to the white spectrum equipment according to the LoST protocol followed between the existing white spectrum equipment and the server.

In the feedback information sent by the server to the white spectrum device, the feedback information carries, in addition to the address information in the attribute information of the white spectrum database, more importantly, first identification information for identifying a service provider of the white spectrum database. By means of this first identification information, attribute information of the service provider of the white spectrum database is provided. Accordingly, the white spectrum device that facilitates receiving the feedback information may determine a white spectrum database that may be connected directly from the first identification information.

When the white spectrum equipment receives the feedback information returned by the server, the feedback information carries first identification information for identifying a service provider of the white spectrum database besides the address information of the white spectrum database, so that the white spectrum equipment can select a matched white spectrum database from the received address information of the white spectrum database according to the first identification information, and then establish connection with the matched white spectrum database to obtain corresponding white spectrum resources.

In a specific implementation process, the first connection module may specifically include:

In the implementation mode, at least one white spectrum database which has a contract relationship with white spectrum equipment and has white spectrum resources required by the white spectrum equipment is determined as a matched white spectrum database. Finally, the white spectrum device establishes a connection with one of the matching white spectrum databases.

Specifically, the white spectrum device may select any one of the matched white spectrum databases to connect. When the white spectrum device is successfully connected with the currently selected white spectrum database, the white spectrum device can select another white spectrum database to reinitiate the connection.

In the embodiment of the server, after receiving request information which is sent by a white spectrum device and requests for accessing a white spectrum database, the server returns feedback information to the white spectrum device, the feedback information carries first identification information for identifying a service provider of the white spectrum database, and the white spectrum device can obtain matched white spectrum database information according to the first identification information, so that the white spectrum device is directly connected with the matched white spectrum database. The white spectrum database which is connected by the white spectrum equipment is matched with the white spectrum database, so that the matched white spectrum database can be successfully connected, and then the white spectrum resource can be successfully obtained. Therefore, the white spectrum equipment determines the matched white spectrum database through the first identification information, and the accuracy of connection establishment between the white spectrum equipment and the white spectrum database can be greatly improved.

Correspondingly to the third method embodiment, the present invention provides an embodiment of a white spectrum device, as shown in fig. 8, where the white spectrum device specifically includes:

In the embodiment of the white spectrum device, the white spectrum device sends request information requesting access to a white spectrum database to a server, and in order to facilitate the white spectrum device to establish connection with a corresponding white spectrum database, the white spectrum device carries second identification information for identifying and matching the white spectrum database in the sent request information through a second request module 801. Through the second identification information, the white spectrum device carries out clear identification on the white spectrum database matched with the white spectrum device.

In particular, there may be a plurality of white spectrum databases matching white spectrum devices simultaneously, in which case a white spectrum device establishes a connection with one of said matching white spectrum databases. The white spectrum device can select any one matched white spectrum database to connect. When the white spectrum device is successfully connected with the currently selected white spectrum database, the white spectrum device can select another white spectrum database to reinitiate the connection.

Therefore, the accuracy of connection establishment between the white spectrum equipment and the white spectrum database can be improved by carrying the attribute information of the white spectrum database in the interactive information between the white spectrum equipment and the server.

Similarly, only the white spectrum database which has the subscription relationship and white spectrum resources required by the white spectrum device is the matched white spectrum database, the connection can be successfully established with the white spectrum device.

In a specific implementation process, the second identification information carried in the request information may include: service provider information of the matched white spectrum database, or country code information of a country to which the white spectrum device belongs.

The white spectrum device may notify the server of the service provider information of the matched white spectrum database, and after the server receives the service provider information identifying the matched white spectrum database, may return only the address of the white spectrum database having a subscription relationship with the white spectrum device to the white spectrum device according to the identified subscription relationship. Therefore, unnecessary connection between the white spectrum equipment and a white spectrum database without a subscription relation is omitted, and the connection efficiency of the white spectrum equipment and the white spectrum database is greatly improved.

In addition, by adding an attribute element representing country code information to the request information for requesting access to the white spectrum database initiated by the white spectrum information, the country in which the white spectrum device is currently located is explicitly identified using the attribute element. Therefore, the server feeds back the address information of the white spectrum database in the country range corresponding to the country code to the white spectrum device according to the country code information, and the connection efficiency of the white spectrum device and the white spectrum database can be greatly improved.
