Specific embodiment
To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, below in conjunction with specific embodiment, and reference Attached drawing, the present invention is described in more detail.
It should be noted that all statements for using " first " and " second " are for differentiation two in the embodiment of the present invention The non-equal entity of a same names or non-equal parameter, it is seen that " first " " second " only for the convenience of statement, does not answer It is interpreted as the restriction to the embodiment of the present invention, subsequent embodiment no longer illustrates this one by one.
The embodiment of the present invention considers the transmission plan design towards DASH video multicasting, wherein how to carry out to user Grouping, improves the focus that existing grouping scheme is the embodiment of the present invention.For the multicast of video traffic, forefathers have proposed one A little user grouping schemes, but major part is the switching about unicast and multicast both of which, and user can only be in two kinds of transmission modes Between selected.And for DASH video multicasting, video content that the user in a multicast group not only requests Identical, the video code rate of selection also must be identical.If the video code rate for therefore user of same video content being selected to request is not Together, it is also desirable to belong in different multicast groups, just also relate to the selection for multicast group at this time.Generally speaking, it uses Family grouping strategy is the core of the video multicast grouping conceptual design towards DASH, wherein needing to consider two critical issues: the One, each user selects code rate/multicast group according to what criterion;Second, request all users of same video content should It is divided into how many a multicast groups, i.e., provides how many kinds of code rate for same video content actual needs.By to two above problem Solution, can realize maximum throughput under given bandwidth condition.
The present invention provides a kind of user grouping scheme for DASH video multicasting.Firstly, according to the channel matter of user Amount is clustered to divide multicast group, by the close user of channel quality point in a group, minimizes subscriber channel in group The difference of quality.Secondly, the invention proposes a kind of sides for automatically determining number of packet suitable for DASH video multicast scene Method, wherein not stringent separating unicast and multicast user, but unicast is treated as a special case of multicast.The multicast user mentioned point Group scheme can improve network throughput under same band consumption, reduce interruption times and interrupt duration, improve user experience.
Based on above-mentioned purpose, the first aspect of the embodiment of the present invention provides one kind and is able to solve DASH video multicast The user packet method for DASH video multicasting of equilibrium problem in business between video quality and bandwidth availability ratio. As shown in Figure 1, the process of one embodiment for the user packet method provided by the invention for DASH video multicasting Schematic diagram.
As shown in Figure 1, the user packet method for DASH video multicasting, optionally, poly- using k-means Class algorithm is grouped, and specifically includes two parts:
First part automatically determines the k in k-means clustering algorithm, i.e. user grouping quantity.K-means clustering algorithm Service condition be cluster number k it is known that therefore k value size need predefine.For DASH video multicasting, With increasing for multicast group quantity, the otherness for organizing interior user channel quality can be reduced, and the good user of channel condition can obtain Higher video code rate helps to improve user experience.But on the other hand, multicast group number increases and will increase total bandwidth money Source consumption, reduces spectrum efficiency.Therefore, the present invention proposes a kind of algorithm for automatically determining user grouping quantity k, makes these two aspects An optimal equalization point can be reached.
First part specifically can comprise the following steps that
Step 101: according to collect to grouping user channel quality information (be chosen as Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR, Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio) as user channel quality information initial data), meter Calculation obtains cluster and divides distance threshold;Wherein, the data that the channel quality information can acquire relative users by base station end obtain It arrives, the SINR value of acquisition is denoted as S={ s1,s2,…,sn, wherein n is the total number of users of request same video content in cell.
Specifically, the step of cluster divides distance threshold is calculated in the channel quality information that the basis collects 101, it can further include following steps:
Step 1011: enabling to grouping user quantity is n, and the channel quality information for calculating each user collected (can Be selected as user's SINR value) difference two-by-two, obtain a n × n dimension matrix:
Dn×n=d (si,sj) i, j=1,2 ..., n
Wherein, d (si,sj) indicate two users channel quality information between difference, si、sjRespectively i-th, jth The channel quality information of a user;
Step 1012: mean difference is calculated, because of d (si,si)=0 needs to remove every row when calculating mean difference 0 value, obtain following mean difference:
Step 1013: it obtains cluster and divides distance threshold:
Wherein, minDn×nIndicate Distance matrix Dn×nMinimum value.
Step 102: choosing the maximum cluster centre difference of satisfaction and be less than the packet count of cluster division distance threshold as use Family number of packet.
Specifically, k value is determined with the ergodic algorithm with termination condition.Therefore, optionally, the selection meets maximum Cluster centre difference is less than the cluster and divides step 102 of the packet count of distance threshold as user grouping quantity, can also be into one Step the following steps are included:
Step 1021: choosing initial packet number;In general, the division class number of cluster should not too be greater than to grouping user number The square root of amountTherefore, the selection initial packet number, it may include following steps:
It obtains to grouping user quantity;
It calculates the square root to grouping user quantity and upper rounding is carried out to the square root, obtain described initial point Group number, that is, take the initial value of k[·]+It is rounded in expression.
First by the initial data S={ s of channel quality information1,s2,…,snWith k-means clustering algorithm it is divided into k class, it counts Calculate the cluster centre μ of every one kindi(i=1,2 ..., k), then calculate the difference DELTA μ of cluster centre two-by-two=| μij| (i, j= 1,2,…,k)。
Finally, judging whether maximum cluster centre difference is less than cluster and divides distance, i.e. whether the following conditions are true:
Step 1022: if being based on the initial packet number, the maximum cluster centre difference being calculated using clustering algorithm Distance threshold is divided less than the cluster, using the initial packet number as the user grouping quantity;
Step 1023: if the maximum cluster centre difference divides distance threshold not less than the cluster, based on less than institute The new packet count (here, the new packet count can be using the value that k is reduced to 1, i.e. k=k-1) of initial packet number is stated, with new K be grouping number, then carry out k-means cluster, and new maximum cluster centre difference is calculated using clustering algorithm, then Secondary to carry out above-mentioned judgement, until new maximum cluster centre difference is less than, the cluster divides distance threshold or new packet count is 1 (i.e. K=1), loop termination, and using newest primary packet count as the user grouping quantity.
Second part is requested the user of same video content to be grouped, is specifically included using clustering algorithm in cell Following steps:
Step 103: by clustering algorithm, according to the user grouping quantity and the channel quality information collected, Complete user grouping;Optionally, the clustering algorithm is k-means clustering algorithm.
In grouping, using collected user's SINR value as sample data, to all users of request same video content Multicastapackets are carried out, identical video code rate will be used by assigning to the user in a multicast group.In general, all in group in order to guarantee User can normally watch video, and bandwidth resources are distributed on the basis of being the user that channel quality is worst in organizing.Therefore, if group The channel quality of interior user has big difference, then script channel condition is good, can receive the user of higher video quality to select Lower video code rate is selected, this will be greatly reduced the viewing experience of user.Therefore, the grouping criterion of proposition of the embodiment of the present invention is User similar in channel quality is divided into one group as far as possible, reduces the user channel quality difference in same group.
It here, is that initial data clusters with the SINR (Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio) of user using k-means clustering algorithm.
Therefore, described by clustering algorithm, according to the user grouping quantity and the channel quality information collected, The step 103 for completing user grouping, can also further include steps of
Step 1031: enabling the user grouping quantity is k, and the channel quality information collected is divided into k class, is remembered For G={ G1,G2,…,Gk, wherein GkIn comprising being divided into all data of kth class;
The cluster target of step 1032:k-means be choose following cost function can be made to minimize grouping scheme (that is, The channel quality information of which user is assigned in same class):
Wherein, μiIt is GiThe mean value and cluster centre of channel quality information in class, sjFor the channel matter of j-th of user Measure information;
Step 1033: according to the grouping scheme, k class will be divided into grouping user, every one kind is used as a multicast group, into Row DASH video traffic multicast transmission.
From above-described embodiment as can be seen that the user grouping provided in an embodiment of the present invention for DASH video multicasting Method meets packet count of the maximum cluster centre difference less than cluster division distance threshold as user grouping number by choosing Amount, and grouping user is treated according to the user grouping quantity of the selection and is grouped by clustering algorithm, it is ensured that it is consuming Under the premise of same band resource, higher handling capacity is obtained.
