Embodiment
Technical scheme in the present invention is understood better in order to make those skilled in the art person, below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in the embodiment of the present invention, technical scheme in the embodiment of the present invention is clearly and completely described, obviously, described embodiment is only the present invention's part embodiment, instead of whole embodiments.Based on the embodiment in the present invention, those of ordinary skill in the art, not making the every other embodiment obtained under creative work prerequisite, should belong to the scope of protection of the invention.
See Fig. 1, be the schematic flow sheet of a kind of channel resource allocation method that the embodiment of the present invention provides, the method is applied in wireless aps, wherein, STA can be the equipment such as mobile phone, PC or panel computer, and as shown in Figure 1, described method can comprise the following steps:
S110, wireless aps sends ULTA (UpLinkTransmissionAnnounce, uplink indicates) message, and described ULTA message comprises the information being used to indicate and allowing N number of STA to send upstream data.Wherein, N is integer, and N >=2.
Described ULTA message can be independently message, is independently sent by wireless aps; Or, an information element can be become by being used to indicate the Information encapsulation allowing N number of STA to send upstream data, being included in other message (such as, beacon Beacon message) and sending.It should be noted that, uplink Indication message described in various embodiments of the present invention, just be used to refer to the message sent for wireless aps, be not for limiting this message, in specific implementation, this uplink Indication message can be other title, as long as comprising being used to indicate the information allowing N number of STA to send upstream data.
S120, N number of channel-estimation information that the N number of STA described in wireless aps receives sends respectively according to described ULTA.
After receiving described ULTA message, according to described ULTA message, described N number of STA can judge whether this STA sends upstream data to wireless aps respectively; N number of STA described in the instruction of this ULTA message allows sends upstream data, so namely described N number of STA returns each self-corresponding channel-estimation information to wireless aps, each STA in described N number of STA all sends channel-estimation information corresponding to this STA to wireless aps.Wherein, this channel-estimation information, when transmitting channel estimated information, can be carried in certain message and send by STA, such as be carried at and confirm to send in (cleartosend, CTS) message, or, the request that is carried at sends in (requesttosend, RTS) message.
It should be noted that, wireless aps send ULTA message time, may not know current have which STA need send upstream data; When which STA is wireless aps do not know to have need to send upstream data, wireless aps can indicate and allow some STA to send upstream data in ULTA message, but these STA being allowed to send upstream data differ and established a capital upstream data and need transmission; When the STA being allowed to send upstream data has upstream data to send, the channel-estimation information of this STA can be returned to wireless aps; When the STA being allowed to send upstream data does not have upstream data to send, then not to wireless aps Return Channel estimated information.The multiple STA sending upstream data are allowed not to be when having upstream data to need to send when wireless aps indicates in ULTA message, N in the present embodiment can indicate the quantity of the STA that upstream data needs send, described ULTA message now in the present embodiment can also comprise out of Memory, such as, can also comprise the information that other STA be used to indicate except above-mentioned N number of STA sends upstream data.Such as, the instruction of ULTA message allows STA1 ~ STA5 to send upstream data, but only has STA1 ~ STA3 to need to send upstream data, and now N can be 3, and N number of STA represents STA1 ~ STA3.
S130, wireless aps judges the correlation of the channel of described N number of STA according to the described N number of channel-estimation information received.
Wireless aps, according to the N number of channel-estimation information received from N number of STA, can judge whether the channel of every two STA in described N number of STA is correlated with.
The channel of the STA in various embodiments of the present invention can be the channel transmitting data between STA and wireless aps.
S140, wireless aps be in N number of website channel mutually incoherent at least two STA distribute identical channel resource, with make described channel mutually incoherent at least two STA utilize identical channel resource to send upstream data simultaneously.
It should be noted that, in various embodiments of the present invention, for channel mutually incoherent at least two STA allocation of channel resources time, as long as it is uncorrelated mutually between two to ensure to be assigned with the channel of multiple STA of identical channel resource; The embodiment of the present invention do not limit must for channel mutually incoherent at least two STA distribute identical channel resource.Such as, in multiple STA (STA1 ~ STA3) of wireless aps service, the channel cross-correlation of STA1, STA2, STA3, then wireless aps can distribute identical channel resource for STA1, STA2 and STA3; Or wireless aps can distribute identical channel resource for STA1 and STA2, for STA3 distributes other channel resource; Or wireless aps can distribute identical channel resource for STA1 and STA3, for STA2 distributes other channel resource; Or wireless aps can distribute identical channel resource for STA2 and STA3, for STA1 distributes other channel resource.
At least two STA being assigned with identical channel resource can use same channel resource to send data to wireless aps simultaneously.Namely the multiple STA being assigned with identical channel resource can utilize same time-frequency channel resource parallel transmission upstream data.
It should be noted that, the channel of multiple STA is uncorrelated mutually refers to that the channel of any two STA in multiple STA is all uncorrelated.
For at least two STA that channel in N number of website is relevant, wireless aps needs at least two STA be correlated with for channel to distribute different channel resources.
Further, the information of the channel resource of distribution can be carried in certain message (such as CTS message or RTS message) and send to corresponding STA by wireless aps.After wireless aps receives the channel estimating message of N number of STA transmission, confirm that this N number of STA has upstream data to need to send.Then, wireless aps after for N number of STA allocation of channel resources, sends the message of carrying channel resource information, such as the 2nd CTS message to this N number of STA.
Wherein, wireless aps is the process of multiple STA allocation of channel resources can be that the message comprising respective channel-estimation information that first wireless aps sends according to each STA determines that the channel of which STA is incoherent.Mutual for channel incoherent STA can be divided into one group, and determine that this group STA can share the identical channel resource of use.For the STA that channel is relevant, wireless aps then distributes different channel resources for them, avoids clashing during transmit ascending data.As for the size that AP is the channel resource that STA distributes, the data transmission capabilities then can supported according to the uplink transmission information of STA and wireless aps self is determined, if but in the message (a CTS message or RTS message) of STA transmission, do not comprise the uplink transmission information of STA, then wireless aps can be that each STA distributes suitable uplink channel resources according to the data transmission capabilities of self and the nearest upstream bandwidth conditions of demand of each STA, or wireless aps directly can also distribute predetermined uplink channel resources for each STA according to the data transmission capabilities of self.
In one embodiment of the invention, wireless aps can send N number of 2nd CTS message respectively to N number of STA, wherein, comprises the information that wireless aps is the channel resource that STA corresponding to the 2nd CTS message distributes in each 2nd CTS message.
In another embodiment of the present invention, wireless aps only can send a 2nd CTS message, is included as the information of the channel resource that N number of STA distributes in the 2nd CTS message simultaneously.
Alternatively, wireless aps, after distributing channel resource for STA, can also receive the upstream data that STA is the channel resource transmission that it distributes by wireless aps, namely perform S150.
S150, wireless aps receive STA utilize described wireless aps be described STA1 distribute channel resource send upstream data.
Wherein, be assigned with multiple STA of same channel resource, the channel resource be assigned with can be used simultaneously to send upstream data.Such as: if the channel of the channel of STA1 and STA2 is uncorrelated, wireless aps is that STA1 and STA2 distributes identical channel resource, then STA1 and STA2 can utilize same channel resource to send upstream data to wireless aps simultaneously.
In the present embodiment, wireless aps can determine the correlation of the channel of multiple STA according to the channel-estimation information of STA, and can for channel mutually incoherent at least two STA distribute identical channel resource, upstream data can be sent on same channel resource to make the mutual incoherent website of multiple channel, namely the mutual incoherent website of multiple channel can use same time-frequency channel resource parallel transmission upstream data, the utilization ratio of the channel resource (that is, frequency spectrum) when this improves uplink.
Refer to Fig. 2, for the schematic flow sheet of a kind of uplink data transmission method that the embodiment of the present invention provides, the method describes the process of transmitting uplink data from STA1 side, and the method is described for wireless aps, STA1 and STA2, as shown in Figure 2, described method comprises:
S210, STA1 receive the ULTA message that wireless aps sends, and described ULTA message comprises the information being used to indicate and allowing STA1 and at least one other STA to send upstream data.
Wherein, STA2 can be a STA at least one other STA described.And STA1, STA2 all have upstream data to need to send.

In the present embodiment, three CTS message that STA1, STA2 and STA3 send can send simultaneously, are that a CTS message is described for the CTS message that STA sends.Wherein, STA1 send a CTS message can be equivalent to embodiment illustrated in fig. 2 in the first message, STA2 or STA3 send a CTS message can be equivalent to embodiment illustrated in fig. 2 in the 3rd message.
Fig. 5 shows the schematic diagram of the MAC layer message format of a kind of CTS message of the embodiment of the present invention, a described CTS message is followed successively by from left to right: FrameControl (control frame), Duration (length) territory, AID (AssociationIdentifier, association identification) territory, Bandwithinformation (channel width resource information) territory and FCS (FrameCheckSequence, Frame Check Sequence) territory.Described Bandwithinformation territory is for storing the uplink transmission information of STA.
In order to ensure in the CTS message that redefines MAC layer message format can identify by the STA of existing WLAN standard IEEE802.11 agreement, by 64 receiver address (receiveraddress in the MAC layer message of CTS message that specifies in existing WLAN standard IEEE802.11 agreement, RA) territory redefine into AID territory (such as, 16) and Bandwithinformation territory is (such as, 24), AID territory is for storing the association identification AID of STA, and channel width resource information territory is for storing the bandwidth resource information of STA request.
In the present embodiment, a CTS message can comprise header field and the data field of physical layer formats, wherein, the MAC layer of a CTS message is packaged into the data field of a CTS message; Can arrange multiple training (trainfiled, TF) territory in described header field, the quantity in the TF territory of setting is no less than the quantity that wireless aps allows the STA sending upstream data.Such as, by the quantity in ULTA message instruction TF territory, that is, can indicate the quantity allowing the STA sending upstream data in ULTA message, this quantity is the quantity in TF territory.A TF territory in multiple TF territory is used for depositing channel-estimation information, the uplink transport channel characteristic of this channel-estimation information for making AP estimate STA.Wherein, TF territory can be LTF (long training, longtrainfiled) territory, also can be STF (Short Training, shorttrainfiled) territory.
In the present embodiment, the process that STA1 sends a corresponding CTS message to wireless aps can comprise the following steps 11)-16); It should be noted that, the process that STA2, STA3 send a corresponding CTS message to wireless aps is identical with the process that STA1 sends a CTS message.
Step 11), according to ULTA message, STA1 determines that STA1 allows the order sent in whole STA of upstream data in wireless aps.
The schematic diagram that a kind of default mark that Fig. 6 shows AIDMAP territory is arranged, the 1st, the 3rd, the 4th is only had to be " 0 " for presetting mark " 1 " other position in Fig. 6 in AIDMAP territory, the quantity of default marks whole in AIDMAP in this example is 3, and namely wireless aps permission AID is three STA transmission upstream datas of 1,3,4 respectively.Wherein, the order of the order of default mark of the 1st to be the order of the default mark of the first, 3rd the be default mark of the second, 4th is the 3rd; Namely AID is the order of STA in three STA of 1 to be the first, AID be 3 the order of STA in three STA to be the second, AID be 4 the order of STA in three STA be the 3rd.
Suppose AID be 4 STA be STA1 in the present embodiment, AID be 3 STA be STA2 in the present embodiment, AID be 1 STA be STA3.
Step 12), STA1 selects the TF territory of corresponding order to deposit the channel-estimation information of STA1 according to described order from multiple TF territories of a CTS message to be sent.
The order that STA allows in wireless aps to send in whole STA of upstream data can be set up in advance, and the mapping relations between the order in multiple TF territory.Like this, determining that STA1 is after being allowed to send the order in whole STA of upstream data, can select corresponding secondary thick TF territory from multiple TF territory according to described mapping relations.
In one embodiment of the invention, the order in multiple TF territory can be consistent with the order that this STA is being allowed to the whole STA sending upstream data.Such as, the example shown in Fig. 6, AID be 4 STA (STA1) order in three STA be the 3rd, then STA1 selects the 3rd TF territory to deposit channel-estimation information; AID be 3 STA (STA2) order in three STA be the second, then STA2 selects second TF territory to deposit channel-estimation information; AID be 1 STA (STA3) order in three STA be the first, then STA3 selects first TF territory to deposit channel-estimation information.
In another embodiment of the present invention, can by the backward of the default order be marked in whole default marks corresponding for STA in AIDMAP territory, select the order in TF territory as STA, namely this STA is consistent with the order in multiple TF territory in the backward of the order being allowed to the whole STA sending upstream data.The order of STA (STA1) in three STA being still 4 for Fig. 6, AID is the 3rd, then STA1 selects first TF territory to deposit channel-estimation information; AID be 3 STA (STA2) order in three STA be the second, then STA2 selects second TF territory to deposit channel-estimation information; AID be 1 STA (STA3) order in three STA be the first, then STA3 selects the 3rd TF territory to deposit channel-estimation information.
Step 13), STA1 sends the CTS message comprising the channel-estimation information of STA1, wherein, STA1 utilizes the described channel-estimation information in whole channel resource transmission the one CTS message, and namely STA1 utilizes whole channel resource to send the TF territory of depositing channel-estimation information in a CTS message.
Due in step 12) in, STA1 can select the TF territory of certain order to deposit the channel-estimation information of STA1 from multiple TF territory, in like manner, STA2 (or STA3) also can select the TF territory of certain order to deposit the channel-estimation information of STA2 (or STA3) in multiple TF territories to be sent.Further, the order in the TF territory that STA1, STA2, STA3 select is different, so make STA1, STA2, STA3 can send the TF territory of depositing channel-estimation information in a CTS message at whole channel resource simultaneously.Wherein, described whole channel resource is the frequency spectrum resource of the whole channel of wireless aps work, and the size of this frequency spectrum resource can have multiple, such as, and 20MHz, 40MHz, 80MHz, 160MHz etc.Be 40MHz below with frequency spectrum resource for example is described.
In one embodiment of the invention, STA1 utilize whole channel resource transmitting channel estimated information can be on every sub-channels in whole channel resource with the channel-estimation information of the mode transmitted in parallel STA1 copied, namely all send identical information (channel-estimation information of STA1) on each of the sub-channels.
In another embodiment of the present invention, STA1 can directly utilize whole channel resource to send the channel-estimation information of STA1, namely the every sub-channels in whole channel resource uploads defeated a part of channel-estimation information, the channel-estimation information that the information structure one of whole subchannel transmission is complete.
It should be noted that, described subchannel is the set comprising one or more subcarrier.Subchannel and subcarrier can divide in advance and define.Such as 40MHz channel is evenly divided into 512 subcarriers, can using one or more subcarrier as a sub-channels.Such as, every 32 subcarriers, as a sub-channels, such 40MHz channel are divided into 16 sub-channels from low to high successively by frequency, be respectively the first subchannel, the second subchannel ..., the 16 subchannel.Certainly, channel resource can also be divided into other quantity subcarrier or subchannel.
Alternatively, the one CTS message of STA1 can also comprise data field, described data field is for storing the uplink transmission information of STA1, wireless aps can be that STA1 distributes concrete channel resource according to the transmittability of the uplink transmission information deposited in data field and wireless aps, and the process that STA sends a CTS message is further comprising the steps of:
Step 14), according to described order, STA1 determines that described subchannel is the set comprising one or more subcarrier for sending the subchannel of the data field in a described CTS message in described whole channel resource.
Alternatively, when comprising the data field depositing uplink transmission information corresponding to STA in a CTS message, whole order (namely STA is at all order being allowed to send in the STA of upstream data) preset in mark in the default AIDMAP of the being marked at territory of STA are corresponding with the order that STA sends the subchannel that data field uses.
Corresponding default of STA can be set up in advance be marked at whole that AIDMAP territory arranges and preset the order in marking and the mapping relations between the order of STA chooser channel.After determining the default order be marked in whole default mark that STA is corresponding, can determine that this STA selects the order in TF territory according to described mapping relations.Determine that the process of the order of the subchannel transmitting data field content selects the process in TF territory identical with STA, repeat no more herein.
Such as, in Fig. 6, AID is the STA (STA1) of 4 is the 3rd at whole order preset in mark in AIDMAP territory, then STA1 can select the 3rd sub-channels to send the content of data field from whole channel resource.
Step 15), STA1 utilizes the subchannel of self correspondence to send the content of data field in a CTS message corresponding to STA1, simultaneously, STA2 utilizes the subchannel of self correspondence to send the content of data field in a CTS message corresponding to STA2, meanwhile, STA3 utilizes the subchannel of self correspondence to send the content of data field in a CTS message corresponding to STA3.
STA1, STA2 and STA3 utilize the data field in the different each self-corresponding CTS message of sub-channel parallel transmission.
Namely STA1 is in the time window that selected TF territory is corresponding, utilizes whole channel resource to send the channel-estimation information of STA1, and corresponding subchannel sends the data field in a CTS message.The mode that STA2 or STA3 sends a CTS message is identical with the mode that STA1 sends a CTS message.Because STA1, STA2 and STA3 select the order depositing the TF territory of channel-estimation information different, therefore, STA1, STA2 are different with the sequential of STA3 transmitting channel estimated information, and see on the whole, and three CTS message that STA1, STA2 and STA3 are corresponding are respectively transmitted in parallel.
STA selects the TF territory of relevant position to store the channel-estimation information of self correspondence according to ULTA message, and utilizes the content in the TF territory selected by the transmission of whole channel.Meanwhile, select corresponding subchannel to send the content of data field in a CTS message according to described ULTA message, namely realize multiple STA transmitted in parallel the one CTS message.
Fig. 7 shows the schematic diagram of the process of transmitting of a CTS message, comprises three STA, is STA1, STA2 and STA3 respectively.In Fig. 7, TF territory is described for LTF territory.Suppose that the order of " 1 " in the AID corresponding A IDMAP territory of the STA1 order that to be the order of " 1 " in the AID corresponding A IDMAP territory of the first, STA2 be " 1 " in the AID corresponding A IDMAP territory of the second, STA3 is the 3rd; And suppose that the order that STA is being allowed to send in whole STA of upstream data is consistent with the order in multiple LTF territory.Therefore, STA1 selects first LTF territory to deposit channel-estimation information, and any message is not deposited in second, third LTF territory, and sends the LTF territory of depositing channel-estimation information over the entire channel; Meanwhile, STA1 selects the first sub-channels to send the content of the data field of a CTS message; In like manner, STA2 selects second LTF territory to send the channel-estimation information of self, and selects the second sub-channels to send the content of data field; STA3 selects the 3rd LTF territory to send the channel-estimation information of self, and selects the 3rd sub-channels to send the content of data field.
S330, wireless aps judges the correlation of the channel of the channel of STA1, the channel of STA2 and STA3 according to the channel-estimation information of the channel-estimation information of STA1, the channel-estimation information of STA2 and STA3; According to the correlation of channel, S340 or S350 can be performed respectively.
Channel-estimation information in TF territory in the CTS message that wireless aps sends according to STA1, calculates the channel receiving matrix of this STA1, carries out channel estimating.In like manner, wireless aps calculates the channel receiving matrix of STA2 and STA3, carries out channel estimating.Then, according to the channel receiving matrix of the channel receiving matrix of STA1, the channel receiving matrix of STA2 and STA3, the correlation of the channel of the channel of STA1, the channel of STA2 and STA3 is judged.
When comprising data field in a CTS message, in the CTS message that wireless aps sends according to STA1, the content of data field obtains the uplink transmission information of STA1, and wireless aps is STA1 allocation of channel resources according to the uplink transmission information of STA1.
S340, when the channel of STA1 is uncorrelated with the channel of STA2, and when the channel of STA1 is relevant with the channel of STA3, wireless aps can distribute identical channel resource for STA1 and STA2, for STA3 distributes other channel resource.Then S360 is performed.
S350, when the channel of STA1 is relevant with the channel of STA2, and when the channel of STA1 is uncorrelated with the channel of STA3, wireless aps can distribute identical channel resource for STA1 and STA3, for STA2 distributes other channel resource.Then S360 is performed.
It should be noted that, after S330, wireless aps, according to the channel relevancy of three STA, can also perform other operation.Such as: if the channel of STA1, STA2 and STA3 is uncorrelated mutually, then wireless aps can distribute identical channel resource for STA1, STA2 and STA3; Or if the channel of STA1, STA2 and STA3 is related, then wireless aps can distribute mutually different channel resource for STA1, STA2 and STA3.
S360, wireless aps sends the second message to STA1, STA2 and STA3, and the second message can be included as the information of the channel resource that STA1, STA2, STA3 distribute.Wireless aps is designated as the information of the channel resource that it distributes to STA by the 2nd CTS message.Wherein, the second described message can be CTS message, also can be RTS message.

S370, STA1 are that the channel resource that STA1 distributes sends upstream data according to wireless aps, and STA2 is that the channel resource that STA2 distributes sends upstream data according to wireless aps, and STA3 is that the channel resource that STA3 distributes sends upstream data according to wireless aps.
If wireless aps is that the channel resource that STA1 with STA2 distributes is identical, then STA1 and STA2 utilizes identical channel resource to send respective upstream data simultaneously; If wireless aps is that the channel resource that STA1 with STA2 distributes is different, then STA1 and STA2 utilizes respective channel resource transmitted in parallel upstream data separately.
Below in conjunction with the instantiation shown in Fig. 9, the transmitting uplink data process that the present embodiment is corresponding is described:
As shown in Figure 9, STA1, STA2 and STA3 send upstream data to wireless aps, and first wireless aps sends ULTA message, after STA1, STA2 and STA3 receive ULTA message, and a transmitted in parallel CTS message separately.According to the channel-estimation information in a CTS message of each STA, wireless aps judges whether the channel of each STA is correlated with after receiving a CTS message of each STA transmission.Illustrate, the channel of STA2 is uncorrelated with the channel of STA3, and the channel of STA1 is relevant to the channel of STA2.Thus, for STA2 and STA3 distributes identical channel resource, for STA1 distributes the channel resource different from the channel resource of STA2 and STA3.Wireless aps sends the 2nd CTS message to each STA, is designated as the channel resource of each STA distribution by the 2nd CTS message.After each STA receives the 2nd CTS message, utilize wireless aps to be that its channel resource distributed sends upstream data (Data), realize upstream data parallel transmission.As shown in Figure 9, STA2 and STA3 utilizes identical subchannel to send upstream data (Data), and STA1 utilizes and the subchannel difference subchannel of STA2 and STA3 sends upstream data (Data).
