As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a packet transmission method, including:
s11, determining the maximum available transmission time of the MAC PDU (protocol data unit) of the message according to the processing condition of the message in the base station;
and S12, when the current time exceeds the maximum available transmission time, abandoning the transmission of the message.
The message transmission method provided by the embodiment of the invention can determine the maximum available transmission time of the MAC PDU of the message according to the processing condition of the message in the base station; and under the condition that the current time exceeds the maximum available transmission time, abandoning the transmission of the message. Therefore, when the MAC transmits the message outwards, the overtime standard can be set for the message transmission according to the maximum available transmission time in each service data unit of the MAC layer, when the current time exceeds the maximum available transmission time, the available time of all MAC SDUs in the message is indicated to be overtime, and each protocol layer regards the messages as invalid data, so that the base station does not need to continuously transmit the message, and the invalid data is actively discarded, thereby effectively improving the utilization rate of wireless resources and effectively enhancing the timeliness of the data.
Specifically, the processing flow of the message in the base station may be as shown in fig. 2. As shown in fig. 2, the transmission of the message between the protocols of each layer includes layer-by-layer transmission from the PDCP layer to the RLC layer and the MAC layer.
Optionally, in step S11, the determining, according to the processing condition of the packet in the base station, the maximum available transmission time of the mac pdu of the packet may include:
after receiving a message, determining the maximum available time of the message in a base station; optionally, the maximum available time of the message in the base station may be determined according to the bearer type of the message;
when the message is transmitted among all layers of protocols, the residual available time of the message in the base station is transmitted layer by layer;
and determining the remaining available time of the message in the MAC layer as the available transmission time of the MAC SDU, wherein the maximum value of the available transmission time of each MAC SDU is the maximum available transmission time of the MAC PDU.
Optionally, when the PDCP layer of the base station processes the bearer Packet to construct the PDU, the maximum available time of the Packet in the base station may be calculated according to the requirement of the bearer Packet delaybridge (3GPP 36.401Table 6.1.7: standard QCI characteristics), the remaining available time of the PDU is carried when the PDCP PDU is delivered to the RLC layer, the remaining available time is transferred to the MAC layer entity by the RLC layer, the MAC layer entity calculates the maximum transmission time of all SDUs in the MAC PDU, and if the maximum transmission time in the transmission process is out and uplink HARQ ACK is still not received, that is, retransmission is still unsuccessful, the HARQ process is actively interrupted to release HARQ resources.
Optionally, in step S11, the determining, according to the processing condition of the packet in the base station, the maximum available transmission time of the mac pdu of the packet may also include:
after receiving a message, determining the maximum available time of the message in a base station; optionally, the maximum available time of the message in the base station may be determined according to the bearer type of the message;
the messages are transmitted among all layers of protocols by adding timestamps;
determining the residual available time of the message in the base station according to the timestamp;
and determining the remaining available time of the message in the MAC layer as the available transmission time of the MAC SDU, wherein the maximum value of the available transmission time of each MAC SDU is the maximum available transmission time of the MAC PDU.
Wherein, the transmission of the message between each layer of protocols comprises the transmission from the PDCP layer to the RLC layer and the MAC layer by layer. Specifically, when the terminal accesses the base station and establishes each bearer, each entity of the protocol layer, such as PDCP, RLC (Radio Link Control), MAC (Media Access Control), etc., calculates the maximum available time of the SDU in the base station according to the requirement of the bearer Packet delaybridge. The PDCP layer carries the time stamp of the service message reaching the base station when delivering the PDU to the RLC layer, and the service message is transferred to the MAC layer entity by the RLC layer, and the MAC layer entity calculates the maximum available time of all SDUs in the MAC PDU. The MAC layer checks whether the maximum available time is overtime when starting HARQ transmission every time, if the maximum available time is overtime, the HARQ processing process is interrupted to release HARQ resources to enter the next HARQ processing process, and if the maximum available time is not overtime, HARQ retransmission is continued until the maximum HARQ retransmission times. For example, in an embodiment of the present invention, each layer entity calculates the maximum available time of a message in a base station to be 100ms, the timestamp of the message when the message reaches the base station to be 1, the PDCP layer of the base station carries the timestamp (or time number) 1 of the service message when the PDU is delivered to the RLC layer, the timestamp is delivered layer by layer with the message, if the time number of the MAC layer to be 9, the remaining available time of the message in the MAC layer is 100ms- (9-1) × 10ms to 20ms, of course, the minimum unit of the timestamp in this example is 10ms, and smaller accuracy may also be used. Since the remaining available time of the packet is mainly used for data transmission at the MAC layer, the remaining available time of the packet at the MAC layer is also referred to as the available transmission time of the packet, where the maximum value of the remaining available time is the maximum available transmission time.
The following describes the message transmission method provided by the present invention in detail through specific embodiments. As shown in fig. 3, in this embodiment, the message transmission method may include the following steps:
101, receiving a data packet by a PDCP entity, recording the reaching time of the data packet, calculating the overtime according to a Discard Timer if a bottom RLC entity is in an UM mode, and setting the overtime to be an infinite value if the bottom RLC entity is in an AM mode, namely the PDU never times out and has no overtime parameter;
the PDCP entity delivers PDUs to the RLC entity while delivering remaining available time;
103, the RLC entity delivers the RLC PDU of the layer to the MAC entity, and the overtime time is set as the maximum value in the RLC SDU;
when constructing a MAC PDU, a MAC entity determines whether the MAC PDU meets a timeout parameter setting condition, where the timeout parameter setting condition includes: the MAC PDU is in a transparent format, or the MAC PDU includes a MAC SDU without a timeout parameter, or includes a MAC control element (MAC control element), or the LCID (logical channel ID) field of the MAC subheader is not within the range of "00001-; otherwise, executing step 105;
105. setting the MAC PDU timeout time as the maximum value of the remaining available time of all MAC SDUs, and allocating an HARQ process to the MAC PDU by the MAC layer;
106. whether an ACK is received or a timeout is reached or a maximum number of retransmissions N is reached for an ith (i ═ 0,1,2.. max number of retransmissions N) HARQ transmission; if yes, go to step 107, if no, go to step 108;
107. interrupting transmission and releasing an MAC PDU buffer area and an HARQ process;
