Description

Resource allocation method and device
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of communications, and in particular, to a resource allocation method and apparatus.
Background
Nowadays, more and more users hope to enjoy a service with a given predetermined quality without being limited by the number of viewers simultaneously on line with the TV service, but the wireless resources allocated in a cell are limited, and this requirement is to be met, especially when a large number of viewers such as large shows with more video applications, competitions and the like live broadcast sites or waiting rooms, subway stations and the like watch scenes such as video programs and the like, for the resource demand which is increased rapidly in a certain time period, the effective utilization rate of balanced resources is difficult to realize in the current resource allocation mode, and if emergency communication vehicles are temporarily called or standby for a long time in order to cope with the problem, devices such as small base stations and the like are obviously not practical.
Currently, the resource allocation of a cell is allocated by a Mobile Network Operator (MNO) at the beginning of cell construction, and is divided into a 20M bandwidth, a 10M bandwidth, a 5M bandwidth, and a 1.4M bandwidth according to reference factors such as cell radius, base station processing capability, and cell environment. For the resource allocation of the cell in the base station, Carrier Aggregation (CA) proposed by 3GPP 10 can be adopted at present, but this method can meet the requirements of single-user peak rate and system capacity improvement, and obviously it is not self-sufficient to guarantee the established service quality for a large number of users at the same time. The 3GPP proposes a Dual Connectivity (DC) concept at R12, which is mainly applied to a small base station (small cell) scenario, where the small cell is mainly responsible for user data transmission of a macro cell in which a terminal is located, and is not practical for a scenario of enhancing video application, and adding a small base station is not only expensive, but also generates large interference to affect terminal experience when the number of small base stations increases, and is also undesirable for 5G.
That is to say, no effective solution is provided yet for the problem in the related art that the resource allocation efficiency is low due to the fact that the service quality at the resource demand stationary stage can only be ensured by increasing the number of small base stations during the period of the resource demand surge of the terminal.

Detailed Description
The invention will be described in detail hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings in conjunction with embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present application may be combined with each other without conflict.
It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," and the like in the description and claims of the present invention and in the drawings described above are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order.
Example 1
In this embodiment, a resource allocation method is provided, and fig. 1 is a flowchart of a resource allocation method according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the flowchart includes the following steps:
step S102, a current base station receives a service request sent by a first terminal;
step S104, the current base station judges whether the self idle resources of the current base station meet the requirements of the service requested by the service request;
and step S106, if not, the current base station allocates the resources to be allocated on the current base station to the first terminal, wherein at least part of the resources to be allocated are shared resources acquired from the neighboring base station set of the current base station.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the resource allocation method may be applied, but not limited to, to different scenarios in which resource requirements planned in advance by a Mobile Network Operator (MNO) will increase rapidly, where Quality of Service (QOS) of each user needs to be guaranteed in the scenarios. For example, in a subway station during rush hours, a large number of user terminals watch online multimedia programs through mobile terminals while waiting for taking a subway, and in order to ensure QOS of each user terminal, it is necessary to reasonably allocate communication resources required by the user terminal. For another example, in a large cinema, each auditorium is equipped with a fixed terminal through which the users interact, which requires a large amount of resources to be consumed in a short time, and therefore also requires a reasonable allocation of the communication resources required by the terminals. The above is only an example, and this is not limited in this embodiment.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the shared resource may obtain, before the terminal sends the service request, an available communication resource from a neighboring base station as the shared resource according to a pre-planned scene requirement; or after the terminal sends the service request, the available communication resources are acquired from the adjacent base station as shared resources according to the service requirement requested by the service request. That is to say, in this embodiment, the shared resource may be acquired in advance according to a pre-planned scene, for example, the shared resource required by the peak hours from work to work is acquired in advance, or the shared resource may be acquired according to a demand after receiving a service request sent by the terminal, for example, when allocating a resource to be allocated including the shared resource acquired in advance to the terminal, if the required shared resource exceeds the shared resource acquired in advance, the shared resource may be continuously acquired by temporarily requesting the neighboring base station.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the allocating, by the current base station, the resource to be allocated to the first terminal may include: s1, sending resource configuration information of the resource to be allocated to the first terminal, wherein the resource configuration information at least includes time-frequency position information of the resource to be allocated and allocation information of the resource size.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the unit of the resource to be allocated may be, but is not limited to, a resource block. That is, when allocating the resource to be allocated to the first terminal, the resource allocation information of each resource block in the resource to be allocated may be sent to the first terminal, so that the first terminal can communicate on the corresponding resource through the resource allocation information.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the manner that the current base station determines whether the idle resource of the current base station itself meets the requirement of the service requested by the service request may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following:
1) judging whether the wireless resource utilization rate of the current base station is greater than or equal to a first preset threshold value or not;
2) judging whether the number of terminals sending service requests in the coverage area of the current base station is greater than or equal to a second preset threshold value, wherein the terminals comprise first terminals;
3) and judging whether the triggering time of the preset event is reached, wherein after the preset event reaches the triggering time, the number of terminals sending the service request is greater than or equal to a third preset threshold, wherein the terminals comprise a first terminal.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, not only the current base station may determine whether to allocate the resource to be allocated including the shared resource acquired by the neighboring base station through the at least one manner, but also the terminal may directly transmit the resource to be allocated for acquiring the shared resource. This is not limited in this embodiment.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the current base station may perform, but is not limited to, resource information interaction with a neighboring base station by at least one of the following ways: and interacting with the adjacent base station through a predetermined logic interface (X2 interface) and interacting with the adjacent base station through a base station management network element. The base station management network element is used for assisting the base station to further analyze and process the interactive content so as to reduce the processing load of the base station. Optionally, in this embodiment, the resource information may include, but is not limited to, information of available communication resources of each neighboring base station, for example, an available state of the communication resources.
For example, assuming that the current base station is the base station a, if the base station a determines that the idle resources of the current base station do not meet the requirement of the service requested by the terminal (for example, the utilization rate of the radio resources of the current base station reaches a predetermined threshold), the base station a is triggered to perform resource information interaction with the neighboring base station through an X2 interface (or through a base station management network element). Assuming that the base station a acquires available communication resources from each neighboring base station through the X2 interface, and assuming that the base station a acquires shared resources from the base station B with the most abundant resources, the base station B may lend the available communication resources to the base station a as the shared resources, so that the base station a allocates resources to be allocated, which include the shared resources, to the first terminal to perform corresponding services.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the current base station may obtain the shared resource by, but is not limited to, the following steps:
s1, sending a resource sharing request to the neighboring base station set, wherein the resource sharing request is used for acquiring the available state of the communication resources of each neighboring base station in the neighboring base station set;
s2, acquiring indication information which is sent by the adjacent base station and used for indicating the available state of the communication resources;
s3, acquiring a target adjacent base station which provides shared resources for the current base station in the adjacent base station set according to the indication information;
s4, sending a shared resource acquisition request to the target adjacent base station, wherein the shared resource acquisition request is used for requesting to acquire available communication resources of the target adjacent base station;
s5, obtaining the available communication resource of the target neighboring base station as the shared resource.
That is to say, the current base station needs to send a resource sharing request to the set of neighboring base stations to obtain the available state of the communication resources of each neighboring base station, and each neighboring base station can borrow the redundant available communication resources to the current base station as the shared resources under the condition of ensuring the service requirement of itself. Further, the current base station may send a shared resource acquisition request to a target neighboring base station providing the shared resource. It should be noted that, when the current base station interacts with the neighboring base stations through the predetermined logical interface, the available state of the communication resources of each neighboring base station in the set of neighboring base stations may be, but is not limited to, sequentially acquired in a polling manner, so that the current base station selects a target neighboring base station that provides the shared resources according to the acquired available state of the communication resources of each neighboring base station. When the current base station interacts with the neighboring base stations through the base station management network element, the base station management network element can, but is not limited to, simultaneously acquire the available state of the communication resources of each neighboring base station in the neighboring base station set, so that the base station management network element selects a target neighboring base station providing shared resources according to the acquired available state of the communication resources of each neighboring base station, and further notifies the target neighboring base station to the current base station.
Optionally, in this embodiment, after the communication resource availability status of each neighboring base station in the neighboring base station set is obtained, but not limited to, an available communication resource list is generated according to the priority of the neighboring base station carried in the communication resource availability status and the configuration information of the available communication resource in the neighboring base station, where the available communication resource list includes resource entries arranged according to a predetermined order, and each resource entry includes an available communication resource and a base station identifier of the neighboring base station corresponding to the available communication resource; therefore, the shared resources are sequentially acquired from the corresponding adjacent base stations according to the sequence listed in the available communication resource list. For example, assume that the list of available communication resources includes: base station B, corresponding to available communication resources 20M; a base station C corresponding to the available communication resources 10M; the base station D, corresponding to the available communication resource 5M, may send a shared resource acquisition request to the base station B with the most abundant resource first (i.e., the base station a), and after receiving a response message of rejecting sharing sent by the base station B, may send a shared resource acquisition request to the base station C with the second most abundant resource in sequence, and so on. In addition, if the priority of the base station C is higher than that of the base station B, the shared resource acquisition request may be transmitted to the second most abundant base station C, and if the sharing rejection response message transmitted by the base station C is received, the shared resource acquisition request may be transmitted to the most abundant base station B.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the priority order is higher than the order of the sizes of the communication resources, the current base station may send the shared resource acquisition request according to the priority order first, and for an adjacent base station that has no priority requirement or belongs to the same priority, the shared resource acquisition request may be sent with continued reference to the size of the available communication resources.
Optionally, in this embodiment, for a terminal with a requirement, for example, in order to avoid frequent handover, or if the current base station (i.e., base station a) has limited capability and cannot effectively schedule a large number of resources, the user terminal may perform multiple connections through the base station a and be scheduled by a neighboring base station providing shared resources. Wherein whether the user terminal makes multiple connections may depend on the terminal capabilities. It should be noted that the multiple connections may be planned in advance by the base station a before obtaining the shared resource from the neighboring base station, or may be fed back to the base station a by the user terminal, for example, the user terminal sends a measurement report or indication information to the base station a, so as to initiate a multiple connection procedure to the neighboring base station.
Optionally, in this embodiment, after the current base station allocates the resource to be allocated on the current base station to the first terminal, and after the current base station determines that the idle resource of the current base station itself meets the requirement of the service requested by the service request, the resource to be allocated is released. The manner of releasing the resources to be allocated may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: releasing the resources to be allocated at one time, gradually releasing the resources to be allocated according to the requirement or priority sequence, and releasing the resources to be allocated according to a release request which is sent by the adjacent base station and used for requesting to release the resources to be allocated.
Specifically, the following example is combined, and it is assumed that the current base station is a base station a and the first terminal is a user terminal G. The user terminal G sends a service request to the base station a, after the base station a receives the service request sent by the user terminal G, the base station a detects that a Radio resource utilization rate (e.g., a Radio Bearer (RB) utilization rate) reaches a first resource utilization threshold, and if the first resource utilization threshold is set to 70%, triggers the base station a to send a resource sharing request to a set of neighboring base stations, for example, sends the resource sharing request through an X2 interface, so as to obtain an available state of communication resources of each neighboring base station. Assume that the set of neighboring base stations includes: base station B, corresponding to available communication resources 20M; a base station C corresponding to the available communication resources 10M; base station D, corresponds to available communication resource 5M. The shared resource may be acquired first to the base station B with the most abundant resource and if rejected, the base station a may acquire the shared resource to the base station C with the second most abundant resource. Further, if the available communication resources in the base station C cannot meet the requirement, the shared resources may be obtained from multiple base stations, for example, the shared resources may be continuously obtained from the base station D, so as to try to ensure that all terminals (including the user terminal G) in the cell where the current base station (i.e., the base station a) is located obtain the predetermined QOS at the same time.
When the utilization of the radio resources of the base station a decreases to the second resource utilization threshold, for example, the second resource utilization threshold is set to 50%, and stabilizes for a predetermined time T, the base station a may choose to gradually release the X2 interface connections with other neighboring base stations. For example, base station C is released first, and then base station B is released. The priority of the radio resource utilization may be that the base station a is the primary resource, for example, occupies 90% of the total resource, and the other neighboring base station resources are the secondary resources, for example, occupies 10% of the total resource.
According to the embodiment provided by the application, the current base station receives a service request sent by a first terminal; the current base station judges whether the self idle resources of the current base station meet the requirements of the service requested by the service request; and if not, the current base station allocates the resources to be allocated on the current base station to the first terminal, wherein at least part of the resources to be allocated are shared resources acquired from the neighboring base station set of the current base station. That is to say, the current base station determines, according to the service request sent by the first terminal, whether to allocate, to the first terminal, a resource to be allocated, where at least part of the resource is a shared resource acquired from a set of neighboring base stations of the current base station, so as to ensure the established service quality of the first terminal, without configuring a large number of small base stations under the condition that the service request is increased, which not only saves the cost of resource allocation, but also greatly improves the efficiency of resource allocation. Furthermore, by acquiring the shared resource from the adjacent base station, the idle resource of the adjacent base station can be fully utilized, so that the problem of resource waste is avoided, and the effect of improving the resource utilization rate is realized.
As an optional scheme, before the current base station receives the service request sent by the first terminal, the method further includes:
s1, the current base station obtains in advance a communication resource required by the first terminal to execute a service requested by the service request, where the service is executed after the first terminal sends the service request;
s2, the current base station judges whether the self idle resource of the current base station meets the communication resource required by the service;
s3, if not, the current base station requests the adjacent base station in the adjacent base station set to obtain the available communication resource of the adjacent base station;
s4, the current base station acquires the available communication resource as a shared resource.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the allocating, by the current base station, the resource to be allocated on the current base station to the first terminal includes: and the current base station allocates the resource to be allocated containing the shared resource to the first terminal.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the shared resource obtained from the neighboring base station of the current base station may be, but is not limited to, obtained in advance before the terminal sends the service request according to a pre-plan. That is, since the current base station may know some predetermined events requiring a large amount of communication resources in advance, for example, peak hours during work or work, the current base station may acquire the shared resources from the neighboring base stations in advance before the trigger time of the predetermined event is reached. For example, if 10:00 is a rush hour of a subway station on duty, the current base station may request to acquire an available communication resource of the neighboring base station as a shared resource of the current base station from the neighboring base station of the current base station at 9:50 in advance, for example, acquire an available communication resource 10M from the base station B as a shared resource, so that when 10:00 arrives, after a plurality of terminals including the first terminal send service requests, the resource of the current base station and the shared resource acquired by 9:50 may be jointly allocated to the terminal including the first terminal in the subway station as a resource to be allocated.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the neighboring base station may, but is not limited to, share the redundant available communication resource as a shared resource to the current base station according to its own needs. That is, if the neighboring base station does not occupy part of the idle resources but is reserved for other applications, the shared resource acquisition request sent by the current base station may also be rejected, so that the current base station acquires the shared resources from other neighboring base stations. Further, if the priority of the current base station is higher than that of the neighboring base station, the available communication resources of the neighboring base station need to be shared preferentially to the current base station. According to different priority relationships among the base stations, the neighboring base stations may make different selections, which is not limited in this embodiment.
By the embodiment provided by the application, before the service request sent by the first terminal is obtained, the shared resource is obtained according to the pre-planning, so that after the service request sent by the first terminal is received, the shared resource obtained in advance from the adjacent base station can be allocated to the first terminal as the resource to be allocated, and the terminal in the range of the current base station can ensure a set service instruction under the condition that the service request is increased rapidly. Furthermore, a large number of small base stations can be prevented from being temporarily configured, so that the aim of improving the resource allocation efficiency is fulfilled.
As an optional scheme, the allocating, by the current base station, the resource to be allocated on the current base station to the first terminal includes:
s1, the current base station requests the adjacent base station in the adjacent base station set to obtain the available communication resource of the adjacent base station;
s2, the current base station acquires available communication resources as shared resources;
s3, the current base station allocates the resource to be allocated including the shared resource to the first terminal.
Optionally, in this embodiment, after receiving the service request sent by the terminal, the current base station may further obtain an available communication resource as a shared resource from a neighboring base station of the current base station, so as to meet the requirement of the service request.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the current base station may also directly obtain the shared resource from the neighboring base station of the current base station when determining that the current idle resource cannot meet the service requested by the service request of the terminal. That is, the present embodiment can be directly applied to a scenario where a shared resource is temporarily acquired. For example, still with the power of a subway station at a peak of 10:00 work, the current base station requests to acquire a 10M available communication resource of the neighboring base station as a shared resource of the current base station at 9:50 in advance, and further, when the 10:00 arrives and after a plurality of terminals including the first terminal send service requests, the current base station judges that the resource of the current base station and the shared resource acquired at 9:50 still do not satisfy the service requested by the service request, may temporarily send the resource sharing request to the neighboring base station again to acquire the shared resource. Therefore, the resources of the current base station, the shared resources obtained at a ratio of 9:50 and the shared resources obtained again are jointly used as resources to be allocated to the terminal containing the first terminal in the subway station.
By the embodiment provided by the application, after receiving the service request sent by the first terminal, the shared resource can be temporarily acquired from the neighboring base station of the current base station according to the actual requirement of the service requested by the service request sent by the first terminal, so that the terminal in the range of the current base station can guarantee a set service instruction under the condition that the service request is increased suddenly. Furthermore, a large number of small base stations can be prevented from being temporarily configured, so that the aim of improving the resource allocation efficiency is fulfilled.
As an optional scheme, the obtaining, by the current base station, the shared resource includes:
s1, the current base station sends a resource sharing request to the neighboring base station set, wherein the resource sharing request is used for acquiring the available state of the communication resources of each neighboring base station in the neighboring base station set;
s2, the current base station acquires the indication information which is sent by the adjacent base station and used for indicating the available state of the communication resource;
s3, the current base station acquires a target adjacent base station which provides shared resources for the current base station in the adjacent base station set according to the indication information;
s4, the current base station sends a shared resource acquisition request to the target adjacent base station, wherein the shared resource acquisition request is used for requesting to acquire available communication resources of the target adjacent base station;
s5, the current base station acquires the available communication resource of the target neighboring base station as a shared resource.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the target neighboring base station may include, but is not limited to, one or more. That is, only one neighboring base station may be selected as the target neighboring base station each time by polling in sequence, and the next target neighboring base station is acquired when needed; it is also possible to acquire a plurality of neighboring base stations at a time as target neighboring base stations. When the resource sharing request is sent, the resource sharing request may be sequentially sent to the neighboring base stations in the neighboring base station set in a sequential polling manner, or the resource sharing request may be sent to the neighboring base stations in the neighboring set at the same time.
Specifically, the description is made with reference to fig. 2, which takes a neighboring base station as a target neighboring base station as an example. Assume that the current base station is base station a, and the neighbor base station set of the current base station includes base station B, base station C, and base station D, wherein assume that the base station B selected by the comparison is the target neighbor base station of the current base station.

s204, the base station B responds to the resource sharing request and sends indication information for indicating the available state of the communication resources to the base station A;
s206, the base station A acquires a target adjacent base station providing shared resources for the base station A in the adjacent base station set according to the acquired indication information, and assumes that the acquired available state of the communication resources indicates the base station B with the most abundant available communication resources as the target adjacent base station;
s208, the base station A sends a shared resource acquisition request to a base station B serving as a target adjacent base station;
s210, the base station a obtains the available communication resource of the base station B as a shared resource, so as to allocate at least part of the resource to the first terminal from the to-be-allocated resource of the shared resource obtained from the neighboring base station set of the current base station.
According to the embodiment provided by the application, the available state of the communication resources of each adjacent base station in the adjacent base station set is obtained by sending the resource sharing request, further, the target adjacent base station is selected according to the obtained available state of the communication resources, and then the shared resource obtaining request is sent to the target adjacent base station to obtain the available communication resources in the target adjacent base station as the shared resources, so that the target adjacent base station meeting the current requirement is selected after the available states of the communication resources in each adjacent base station in the adjacent base station set are compared, and the resource utilization rate is improved while the waste of idle resources in the adjacent base stations is avoided.
As an optional scheme, the sending, by the current base station, the resource sharing request to the set of neighboring base stations includes at least one of:
s1, the current base station sends a resource sharing request to the adjacent base stations in the adjacent base station set through a preset logic interface, so that the current base station directly obtains the available communication resources of the adjacent base stations;
s2, the current base station sends a resource sharing request to the neighboring base stations in the set of neighboring base stations through the base station management network element, so that the base station management network element obtains the available communication resources of the neighboring base stations.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the manner of sending the resource sharing request may also include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: and sequentially polling and sending the resource sharing request to each adjacent base station, and simultaneously sending the resource sharing request to each adjacent base station.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, in general, when the number of neighboring base stations is small, a predetermined logical interface is used to apply for the application, and the time delay is small; when the number of the adjacent base stations is large, the base station management network element is used to avoid the signaling congestion as much as possible.
Specifically, as described in conjunction with the following example, when the number of neighboring base stations is small, the resource sharing request may be sent to the neighboring base stations in the set of neighboring base stations through a predetermined logical interface. As shown in fig. 3, the current base station (i.e., base station a, eNB a shown in the figure) transmits a resource sharing request to the neighboring base station B (i.e., eNB B shown in the figure) and the neighboring base station C (i.e., eNB C shown in the figure) through a predetermined logical interface X2 interface.
Specifically, the following example is used to explain that, when the number of neighboring base stations is large, the resource sharing request may be sent to the neighboring base stations in the set of neighboring base stations through the base station management network element. As shown in fig. 4, the current base station (i.e., base station a, eNB a shown in the figure) may uniformly transmit a resource sharing request to the neighboring base station B (i.e., eNB B shown in the figure) and the neighboring base station C (i.e., eNB C shown in the figure) through the base station management network element.
Through the embodiment provided by the application, different modes can be selected to interact with the adjacent base stations in the adjacent base station set, so that the interaction efficiency is improved, and the effect of improving the resource allocation efficiency is realized.
As an optional scheme, the obtaining, by the current base station according to the indication information, the target neighboring base station that provides the shared resource for the current base station in the neighboring base station set includes:
s1, the current base station generates an available communication resource list according to the indication information, wherein the available communication resource list comprises resource entries arranged according to a predetermined sequence, and each resource entry at least comprises configuration information of the available communication resource and a base station identifier of a neighboring base station corresponding to the available communication resource;
and S2, the current base station sequentially takes the corresponding adjacent base stations as target adjacent base stations to send shared resource acquisition requests according to the sequence of the resource entries in the available communication resource list.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the resource entry may further include priority information of each neighboring base station.
That is, the resource entries in the available communication list may be sorted only according to the size of the available communication resources, may be sorted only according to the priority order of the neighboring base stations, and may be sorted by combining the priority of the neighboring base station corresponding to each available communication resource and the size of the available communication resources. This is not limited in this embodiment.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the generating, by the current base station, the available communication resource list according to the indication information includes:
s12, the current base station acquires the priority information of the adjacent base station carried in the communication resource available state indicated by the indication information and/or the configuration information of the available communication resource in the adjacent base station;
s14, the current base station generates an available communication resource list according to the priority information of the neighboring base station and/or the configuration information of the available communication resources.
For example, the neighboring base station set of base station a includes: base station B, corresponding to available communication resources 20M; a base station C corresponding to the available communication resources 10M; base station D, corresponds to available communication resource 5M. As an alternative, the sequence of the neighboring base stations in the available communication list obtained by the base station a may be obtained as follows according to the size of the available communication resource: base station B, base station C and base station D; as another alternative, if the priority of the base station C is higher than that of the base station B, and the priority of the base station D is higher than that of the base stations B and C, the following sequence may be obtained according to the available communication resource size according to the sequence of the neighboring base stations in the available communication list obtained by the base station a according to the priority sequence: base station D, base station C, and base station B.
It should be noted that, for the neighboring base stations with priority relationship, priority order is prioritized; for neighboring base stations having no priority relationship, or neighboring base stations belonging to the same priority, the sorting according to the size of the available communication resources may be considered. This is not limited in this embodiment.
According to the embodiment provided by the application, the available communication resource list with the preset sequence is generated, so that the adjacent base stations sequentially corresponding to the sequence in the available communication resource list acquire the available communication resources as the shared resources, and the shared resources are acquired quickly and timely, so that the purpose of improving the resource allocation efficiency is achieved.
As an optional scheme, the step of the current base station sequentially sending the shared resource acquisition request by using the corresponding neighboring base stations as the target neighboring base station according to the order of the resource entries in the available communication resource list includes:
s1, if the current base station receives the response message of rejecting sharing sent by the target neighboring base station, the neighboring base station in the next sequence in the available communication resource list is used as the target neighboring base station to send the request for obtaining shared resource.
Specifically, as illustrated in fig. 5, assume that the current base station (i.e., base station a) interacts with the neighboring base stations via an X2 interface. The neighboring base stations of base station a include base station B and base station C, wherein base station B precedes base station C in the order of the available communication list.
S502, the base station A sends a shared resource acquisition request to the base station B;
s504, the base station A receives the response message of refusing to share sent by the base station B;
s506, the base station A sends a shared resource acquisition request to the base station C;
s508, after the base station C agrees to share the available communication resource with the base station a, the base station a obtains the available communication resource of the base station C as a shared resource.
Specifically, as described in conjunction with fig. 6, it is assumed that the current base station (i.e., base station a) interacts with the neighboring base stations through the base station management network element 602.
S602, a base station a sends a shared resource acquisition request to a base station management network element 602, where the shared resource acquisition request at least carries a base station identifier of a target neighboring base station;
s604, if the base station management network element 602 learns, through processing, that the target neighboring base station requested by the base station a rejects sharing resources to any base station, the base station management network element 602 sends a response message of rejecting sharing to the base station a.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the target neighboring base station may refuse to share resources with the current base station. In addition, each neighboring base station in the neighboring base station set can also reject the resource sharing request sent by the single-sign base station so as to reject the available state of the communication resources of the neighboring base station provided for the current base station,
By the embodiment provided by the application, the adjacent base station of the current base station can give priority to the service requirement of the adjacent base station, and under the condition of ensuring the normal operation of the adjacent base station, the available communication resources are shared with the current base station, so that the adjacent base station can also refuse to provide the available communication resources as common resources for the current base station. Therefore, the resource utilization rate of each base station is improved, and resource waste is avoided.
As an optional scheme, before the current base station receives the service request sent by the first terminal, the method further includes:
and S1, the current base station configures multi-connection for the first terminal according to the current state of the first terminal.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the acquiring, by the current base station, the available communication resource as the shared resource includes sending, by the current base station, a shared resource acquisition request to a plurality of base stations connected to the first terminal through multiple connections.
Optionally, in this embodiment, for a terminal with a requirement, for example, in order to avoid frequent handover, or if the current base station (i.e., base station a) has limited capability and cannot effectively schedule a large number of resources, the user terminal may perform multiple connections through the base station a and be scheduled by a neighboring base station providing shared resources. Wherein whether the user terminal makes multiple connections may depend on the terminal capabilities. It should be noted that the multiple connections may be planned in advance by the base station a before obtaining the shared resource from the neighboring base station, or may be fed back to the base station a by the user terminal, for example, the user terminal sends a measurement report to the base station a, so as to initiate a multiple connection procedure to the neighboring base station.
Specifically, referring to fig. 7, a user terminal G and a base station A, B, C (i.e. eNB a, eNB B, and eNB C shown in the figure) establish a multi-connection, where the user terminal G includes 3 MAC entities respectively corresponding to resource scheduling of 3 base stations. After establishing multi-connection with the base station B and the base station C through the base station a, the user terminal G can directly communicate with the base station B and the base station C on the corresponding shared resources.
By the embodiment provided by the application, the problem that numerous resources cannot be effectively scheduled due to frequent switching of the edge user terminal is avoided in a multi-connection mode.
As an optional scheme, the determining, by the current base station, whether the idle resource of the current base station itself meets the requirement of the service requested by the service request includes at least one of the following:
s1, judging whether the wireless resource utilization rate of the current base station is larger than or equal to a first preset threshold value; or
S2, judging whether the number of terminals sending service requests in the coverage area of the current base station is larger than or equal to a second preset threshold value, wherein the terminals comprise a first terminal; or
And S3, judging whether the triggering time of the preset event is reached, wherein after the triggering time of the preset event is reached, the number of terminals sending the service request is greater than or equal to a third preset threshold, wherein the terminals comprise the first terminal.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the triggering time of the predetermined event may be, but is not limited to, a fixed playing time of a predetermined video program, which is not limited in this embodiment.
As an optional scheme, after the current base station allocates the resource to be allocated on the current base station to the first terminal, the method further includes:
and S1, releasing the resource to be allocated after the current base station judges that the self idle resource of the current base station meets the requirement of the service requested by the service request.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the releasing the resource to be allocated includes at least one of:
s1, gradually releasing the resources to be allocated; or
S2, releasing the resource to be allocated for one time; or
S3, releasing the resource to be allocated according to the release request sent by the adjacent base station for requesting to release the resource to be allocated.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the releasing the resource to be allocated according to a release request for requesting to release the resource to be allocated sent by the neighboring base station includes:
s32, when the priority of the current base station is lower than that of the adjacent base station, releasing the resource to be allocated;
s34, when the priority of the current base station is higher than that of the adjacent base station, refusing to release the resource to be allocated, or gradually releasing the resource to be allocated.
Specifically, the following example is combined to explain, after the current base station (i.e., base station a) allocates the resource to be allocated to the first terminal, and after the base station a determines that its own idle resource meets the requirement of the service requested by the service request, when the utilization rate of its own wireless resource of the base station a decreases to 50% of the preset threshold and stabilizes for a predetermined time T, the base station a may select to release all shared resources once, and may also gradually release shared resources of other neighboring base stations. For example, the shared resource provided by the base station C is released first, and then the shared resource provided by the base station B is released. The resources to be allocated can also be released according to a release request sent by the neighboring base station for requesting to release the resources to be allocated. For example, the base station B sends a release request, and the priority of the base station a is higher than that of the base station B, the base station a may refuse to release the shared resource provided by the base station B, or gradually release the shared resource provided by the base station B, for example, first release 50% and then release 20% until all the shared resources are released.
The description is made with specific reference to the following examples:
as an alternative implementation, in the peak hours of work, a large number of users wait for taking a subway in the subway, and watch video programs such as news shows through the portable terminal devices.
Along with more and more people inrush into the subway station, the utilization rate of wireless resources of a cell under the jurisdiction of a base station A where the subway station is located gradually increases, when the utilization rate reaches a threshold value H, the base station A is triggered to initiate a resource sharing information inquiry message to a neighboring base station through an X2 interface, wherein when the inquiry, the request and other operations are carried out through a base station management network element, each base station reports the available resource condition of each base station to the base station management network element through event triggering or periodic triggering. And after receiving the inquiry message of the resource sharing information, the adjacent base stations B and C of the base station A feed back the condition of available wireless resources of the cell resources under the control of the adjacent base stations B and C through an X2 interface, and the adjacent base stations can also reject the inquiry. After receiving the feedback condition message, the base station A analyzes the available condition of the wireless resources of the adjacent base station and generates a wireless resource list of the adjacent base station. The base station A analyzes the situation of the required wireless resources and sends a resource request message to the adjacent base stations by combining the wireless resource list of the adjacent base stations, for example, the base station B with the most available resources is requested for the resources first, and if the resources are still insufficient, the base station C with the second most available resources is requested for the resources. The resource request message includes information such as the number of requested resources and the terminal capability thereof. And the base station B receives the resource request of the base station A and feeds back a resource request response message, wherein the response message comprises the information of the new resource. And the base station B rejects the resource request of the base station A and feeds back a rejection response message, and the base station A sends a resource request message to the base station C after receiving the rejection response message. And the base station A distributes the borrowed adjacent base station resources to the user terminals in the cell under the jurisdiction.
When the next peak period of work is over, the base station A evaluates the utilization rate of wireless resources of the cell under the jurisdiction (preferentially uses the resources of the original base station A) or triggers the base station A to gradually release the borrowed resources when the utilization rate of the borrowed wireless resources is gradually reduced and reaches a threshold value I. Note: the base station A measures the releasable borrowed resources before releasing the borrowed resources, and can release the borrowed resources for the base station B at one time or gradually, wherein the release request sent by the base station A to the base station B contains the information of the resources to be released. The adjacent base station can also send the resource releasing information to the base station A at any time according to the priority condition, and the base station A should give priority to the resource releasing request of the adjacent base station.
As another alternative, in a large cinema, each auditorium is equipped with a fixed terminal device, wherein the fixed terminal device is used for enabling the audience to perform the second screen interaction through the fixed terminal device.
The base station starts a counter, when the terminal enters a cell and establishes RRC connection, the counter is increased by one, and the counter is decreased by one when the RRC connection is released. When the counter reaches a threshold value B, the base station judges whether an auxiliary base station is connected or not: if not, starting a timer and simultaneously searching and adding a proper auxiliary base station, if no proper auxiliary base station is found within the preset time, ending the process, and avoiding unnecessary battery consumption of the terminal, otherwise, the main base station requests a new resource from the auxiliary base station, wherein the request information comprises information such as the quantity of the resource needing to be requested. And if so, sending a resource request message to the secondary base station to request new resources, wherein the request message comprises information such as the quantity of the resources required to be requested. After receiving the request, the auxiliary base station considers whether to accept the request according to factors such as the receiving capability of the auxiliary base station and the like: and if so, feeding back a reception approval message to the main base station, wherein the feedback message contains the new resource allocation information. If the request information contains the information such as the quantity of the resources required to be requested, the timer is started, if no suitable auxiliary base change is found in the preset time, the process is ended, otherwise, the resource request information is sent to the auxiliary base station to request the resources.
When the video playing approaches to the end sound, the base station A evaluates the utilization rate of wireless resources (preferentially using the resources of the original base station A) of the cell under the jurisdiction or triggers the base station A to gradually release the borrowed resources when the utilization rate of the borrowed wireless resources is gradually reduced and reaches a threshold value I. Note: the base station A measures the releasable borrowing resources before releasing the borrowing resources, the borrowing resources of the base station B can be released all at one time or can be released gradually, wherein the release request sent to the base station B by the base station A comprises the information of the resources to be released.
Through the above description of the embodiments, those skilled in the art can clearly understand that the method according to the above embodiments can be implemented by software plus a necessary general hardware platform, and certainly can also be implemented by hardware, but the former is a better implementation mode in many cases. Based on such understanding, the technical solutions of the present invention may be embodied in the form of a software product, which is stored in a storage medium (e.g., ROM/RAM, magnetic disk, optical disk) and includes instructions for enabling a terminal device (e.g., a mobile phone, a computer, a server, or a network device) to execute the method according to the embodiments of the present invention.
Example 2
In this embodiment, a resource allocation method is provided, and fig. 8 is a flowchart of a resource allocation method according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 8, the flowchart includes the following steps:
s802, a first terminal sends a service request to a current base station, wherein the service request is used for acquiring resources to be allocated on the current base station and applying the resources to the service requested by the service request;
s804, the first terminal communicates on the resource to be allocated by the current base station, wherein at least part of the resource to be allocated is a shared resource acquired from the neighboring base station set of the current base station.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the resource allocation method may be applied, but not limited to, to different scenarios in which resource requirements planned in advance by a Mobile Network Operator (MNO) will increase rapidly, where Quality of Service (QOS) of each user needs to be guaranteed in the scenarios. For example, in a subway station during rush hours, a large number of user terminals watch online multimedia programs through mobile terminals while waiting for taking a subway, and in order to ensure QOS of each user terminal, it is necessary to reasonably allocate communication resources required by the user terminal. For another example, in a large cinema, each auditorium is equipped with a fixed terminal through which the users interact, which requires a large amount of resources to be consumed in a short time, and therefore also requires a reasonable allocation of the communication resources required by the terminals. The above is only an example, and this is not limited in this embodiment.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the shared resource may obtain, before the terminal sends the service request, an available communication resource from a neighboring base station as the shared resource according to a pre-planned scene requirement; or after the terminal sends the service request, the available communication resources are acquired from the adjacent base station as shared resources according to the service requirement requested by the service request. That is to say, in this embodiment, the shared resource may be acquired in advance according to a pre-planned scene, for example, the shared resource required by the peak hours from work to work is acquired in advance, or the shared resource may be acquired according to a demand after receiving a service request sent by the terminal, for example, when allocating a resource to be allocated including the shared resource acquired in advance to the terminal, if the required shared resource exceeds the shared resource acquired in advance, the shared resource may be continuously acquired by temporarily requesting the neighboring base station.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the allocating, by the current base station, the resource to be allocated to the first terminal may include: s1, sending resource configuration information of the resource to be allocated to the first terminal, wherein the resource configuration information at least includes time-frequency position information of the resource to be allocated and allocation information of the resource size.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the unit of the resource to be allocated may be, but is not limited to, a resource block. That is, when allocating the resource to be allocated to the first terminal, the resource allocation information of each resource block in the resource to be allocated may be sent to the first terminal, so that the first terminal can communicate on the corresponding resource through the resource allocation information.
According to the embodiment provided by the application, the first terminal sends a service request to the current base station, wherein the service request is used for acquiring resources to be allocated on the current base station and applying the resources to the service requested by the service request; the first terminal communicates on the resources to be allocated by the current base station, wherein at least part of the resources to be allocated is shared resources acquired from a neighboring base station set of the current base station. That is to say, after the first terminal sends the service request to the current base station, the first terminal may obtain, from the current base station, a resource to be allocated, where at least part of the resource is a shared resource obtained from a set of neighboring base stations of the current base station, so as to ensure the established service quality of the first terminal, without configuring a large number of small base stations under the condition that the service request is increased, which not only saves the cost of resource allocation, but also greatly improves the efficiency of resource allocation. Furthermore, the shared resource is acquired from the adjacent base station to be distributed to the first terminal, so that the effect of fully utilizing the idle resource of the adjacent base station and improving the resource utilization rate can be achieved.
As an optional scheme, the sending, by the first terminal, the service request to the current base station includes:
s1, the service request sent by the first terminal to the current base station carries first indication information for indicating configuration information of communication resources required by the service requested by the service request, so that the current base station directly allocates resources to be allocated to the first terminal according to the first indication information, where the size of the communication resources required by the service is larger than the size of the communication resources occupied by the first terminal.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the first terminal may determine whether the shared resource needs to be acquired according to the size of the communication resource required by the requested service, and send the determination result to the current base station through the first indication information, so as to acquire the corresponding shared resource through the current base station. That is to say, the first terminal may directly obtain the communication resource with the corresponding size from the current base station after determining the required communication resource, where the size of the communication resource requested by the first terminal is larger than the size of the communication resource already occupied by the first terminal.
As an optional scheme, the sending, by the first terminal, the service request to the current base station includes:
s1, the service request sent by the first terminal to the current base station carries second indication information for indicating configuration information of a communication resource occupied by the first terminal, so that the current base station allocates a resource to be allocated to the first terminal according to the second indication information and the size of the communication resource required by the service requested by the service request.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the first terminal may send only the size of the communication resource occupied by the first terminal to the current base station through the second indication information, so that the current base station determines whether the shared resource needs to be acquired from a neighboring base station of the current base station. That is, the first terminal only sends the communication resource occupied by the first terminal to the current base station, and the current base station performs the steps of determining and acquiring the shared resource. The first terminal may send the second indication information according to a predetermined period, or may send the second indication information when performing a service. This is not limited in this embodiment.
As an optional scheme, before the first terminal sends the service request to the current base station, the method further includes:
s1, the first terminal establishes multiple connections through the current base station, wherein the first terminal is configured with MAC entities corresponding to multiple base stations corresponding to the multiple connections.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the communicating, by the first terminal, on the resource to be allocated by the current base station includes:
s1, the first terminal communicates with a plurality of base stations through a shared resource in the resources to be allocated.
Optionally, in this embodiment, for a terminal with a requirement, for example, in order to avoid frequent handover, or if the current base station (i.e., base station a) has limited capability and cannot effectively schedule a large number of resources, the user terminal may perform multiple connections through the base station a and be scheduled by a neighboring base station providing shared resources. Wherein whether the user terminal makes multiple connections may depend on the terminal capabilities. It should be noted that the multiple connections may be planned in advance by the base station a before obtaining the shared resource from the neighboring base station, or may be fed back to the base station a by the user terminal, for example, the user terminal sends a measurement report to the base station a, so as to initiate a multiple connection procedure to the neighboring base station.
Specifically, as described with reference to fig. 7, a user terminal G and a base station A, B, C establish a multi-connection, where the user terminal G includes 3 MAC entities corresponding to resource scheduling of 3 base stations respectively. After establishing multi-connection with the base station B and the base station C through the base station a, the user terminal G can directly communicate with the base station B and the base station C on the corresponding shared resources.
By the embodiment provided by the application, the problem that numerous resources cannot be effectively scheduled due to frequent switching of the edge user terminal is avoided in a multi-connection mode.
Optionally, in this embodiment, before the first terminal establishes the multiple connections through the current base station, the method further includes: and the first terminal sends third indication information for establishing multi-connection to the current base station, wherein the third indication information is at least used for indicating the current service quality of the first terminal.
In this embodiment, the third indication information may be indication information for indicating a currently established qos of the first terminal, so that the current base station determines whether it is necessary to configure multiple connections for the first terminal according to the currently established qos of the first terminal; the terminal may also request the indication information of the predetermined quality of service acquired in advance, that is, the terminal may plan the predetermined quality of service required in advance and request the current base station to establish the multi-connection according to the plan. The first terminal may be, but is not limited to, a terminal located at an edge of a plurality of base stations.
Example 3
In this embodiment, a resource allocation apparatus is further provided, and the apparatus is used to implement the foregoing embodiments and preferred embodiments, and the description already made is omitted. As used below, the term "module" may be a combination of software and/or hardware that implements a predetermined function. Although the means described in the embodiments below are preferably implemented in software, an implementation in hardware, or a combination of software and hardware is also possible and contemplated.
Fig. 9 is a schematic diagram of a resource allocation apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 9, the apparatus is located at a current base station, and the apparatus includes:
1) a receiving unit 902, configured to receive a service request sent by a first terminal;
2) a first determining unit 904, configured to determine whether an idle resource of a current base station meets a requirement of a service requested by a service request;
3) an allocating unit 906, configured to allocate, when it is determined that the resource does not meet the requirement, to-be-allocated resources on the current base station to the first terminal, where at least part of the to-be-allocated resources are shared resources acquired from a neighboring base station set of the current base station.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the resource allocation method may be applied, but not limited to, to different scenarios in which resource requirements planned in advance by a Mobile Network Operator (MNO) will increase rapidly, where Quality of Service (QOS) of each user needs to be guaranteed in the scenarios. For example, in a subway station during rush hours, a large number of user terminals watch online multimedia programs through mobile terminals while waiting for taking a subway, and in order to ensure QOS of each user terminal, it is necessary to reasonably allocate communication resources required by the user terminal. For another example, in a large cinema, each auditorium is equipped with a fixed terminal through which the users interact, which requires a large amount of resources to be consumed in a short time, and therefore also requires a reasonable allocation of the communication resources required by the terminals. The above is only an example, and this is not limited in this embodiment.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the shared resource may obtain, before the terminal sends the service request, an available communication resource from a neighboring base station as the shared resource according to a pre-planned scene requirement; or after the terminal sends the service request, the available communication resources are acquired from the adjacent base station as shared resources according to the service requirement requested by the service request. That is to say, in this embodiment, the shared resource may be acquired in advance according to a pre-planned scene, for example, the shared resource required by the peak hours from work to work is acquired in advance, or the shared resource may be acquired according to a demand after receiving a service request sent by the terminal, for example, when allocating a resource to be allocated including the shared resource acquired in advance to the terminal, if the required shared resource exceeds the shared resource acquired in advance, the shared resource may be continuously acquired by temporarily requesting the neighboring base station.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the allocating unit may implement allocation by sending resource configuration information of the resource to be allocated to the first terminal, where the resource configuration information at least includes time-frequency location information of the resource to be allocated and allocation information of the resource size.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the unit of the resource to be allocated may be, but is not limited to, a resource block. That is, when allocating the resource to be allocated to the first terminal, the resource allocation information of each resource block in the resource to be allocated may be sent to the first terminal, so that the first terminal can communicate on the corresponding resource through the resource allocation information.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the manner that the current base station determines whether the idle resource of the current base station itself meets the requirement of the service requested by the service request may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following:
1) judging whether the wireless resource utilization rate of the current base station is greater than or equal to a first preset threshold value or not;
2) judging whether the number of terminals sending service requests in the coverage area of the current base station is greater than or equal to a second preset threshold value, wherein the terminals comprise first terminals;
3) and judging whether the triggering time of the preset event is reached, wherein after the preset event reaches the triggering time, the number of terminals sending the service request is greater than or equal to a third preset threshold, wherein the terminals comprise a first terminal.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, not only the current base station may determine whether to allocate the resource to be allocated including the shared resource acquired by the neighboring base station through the at least one manner, but also the terminal may directly transmit the resource to be allocated for acquiring the shared resource. This is not limited in this embodiment.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the current base station may perform, but is not limited to, resource information interaction with a neighboring base station by at least one of the following ways: and interacting with the adjacent base station through a predetermined logic interface (X2 interface) and interacting with the adjacent base station through a base station management network element. The base station management network element is used for assisting the base station to further analyze and process the interactive content so as to reduce the processing load of the base station. Optionally, in this embodiment, the resource information may include, but is not limited to, information of available communication resources of each neighboring base station, for example, an available state of the communication resources.
For example, assuming that the current base station is the base station a, if the base station a determines that the idle resources of the current base station do not meet the requirement of the service requested by the terminal (for example, the utilization rate of the radio resources of the current base station reaches a predetermined threshold), the base station a is triggered to perform resource information interaction with the neighboring base station through an X2 interface (or through a base station management network element). Assuming that the base station a acquires available communication resources from each neighboring base station through the X2 interface, and assuming that the base station a acquires shared resources from the base station B with the most abundant resources, the base station B may lend the available communication resources to the base station a as the shared resources, so that the base station a allocates resources to be allocated, which include the shared resources, to the first terminal to perform corresponding services.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the current base station may obtain the shared resource by, but is not limited to, the following steps:
s1, sending a resource sharing request to the neighboring base station set, wherein the resource sharing request is used for acquiring the available state of the communication resources of each neighboring base station in the neighboring base station set;
s2, acquiring indication information which is sent by the adjacent base station and used for indicating the available state of the communication resources;
s3, acquiring a target adjacent base station which provides shared resources for the current base station in the adjacent base station set according to the indication information;
s4, sending a shared resource acquisition request to the target adjacent base station, wherein the shared resource acquisition request is used for requesting to acquire available communication resources of the target adjacent base station;
s5, obtaining the available communication resource of the target neighboring base station as the shared resource.
That is to say, the current base station needs to send a resource sharing request to the set of neighboring base stations to obtain the available state of the communication resources of each neighboring base station, and each neighboring base station can borrow the redundant available communication resources to the current base station as the shared resources under the condition of ensuring the service requirement of itself. Further, the current base station may send a shared resource acquisition request to a target neighboring base station providing the shared resource. It should be noted that, when the current base station interacts with the neighboring base stations through the predetermined logical interface, the available state of the communication resources of each neighboring base station in the set of neighboring base stations may be, but is not limited to, sequentially acquired in a polling manner, so that the current base station selects a target neighboring base station that provides the shared resources according to the acquired available state of the communication resources of each neighboring base station. When the current base station interacts with the neighboring base stations through the base station management network element, the base station management network element can, but is not limited to, simultaneously acquire the available state of the communication resources of each neighboring base station in the neighboring base station set, so that the base station management network element selects a target neighboring base station providing shared resources according to the acquired available state of the communication resources of each neighboring base station, and further notifies the target neighboring base station to the current base station.
Optionally, in this embodiment, after the communication resource availability status of each neighboring base station in the neighboring base station set is obtained, but not limited to, an available communication resource list is generated according to the priority of the neighboring base station carried in the communication resource availability status and the configuration information of the available communication resource in the neighboring base station, where the available communication resource list includes resource entries arranged according to a predetermined order, and each resource entry includes an available communication resource and a base station identifier of the neighboring base station corresponding to the available communication resource; therefore, the shared resources are sequentially acquired from the corresponding adjacent base stations according to the sequence listed in the available communication resource list. For example, assume that the list of available communication resources includes: base station B, corresponding to available communication resources 20M; a base station C corresponding to the available communication resources 10M; the base station D, corresponding to the available communication resource 5M, may send a shared resource acquisition request to the base station B with the most abundant resource first (i.e., the base station a), and after receiving a response message of rejecting sharing sent by the base station B, may send a shared resource acquisition request to the base station C with the second most abundant resource in sequence, and so on. In addition, if the priority of the base station C is higher than that of the base station B, the shared resource acquisition request may be transmitted to the second most abundant base station C, and if the sharing rejection response message transmitted by the base station C is received, the shared resource acquisition request may be transmitted to the most abundant base station B.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the priority order is higher than the order of the sizes of the communication resources, the current base station may send the shared resource acquisition request according to the priority order first, and for an adjacent base station that has no priority requirement or belongs to the same priority, the shared resource acquisition request may be sent with continued reference to the size of the available communication resources.
Optionally, in this embodiment, for a terminal with a requirement, for example, in order to avoid frequent handover, or if the current base station (i.e., base station a) has limited capability and cannot effectively schedule a large number of resources, the user terminal may perform multiple connections through the base station a and be scheduled by a neighboring base station providing shared resources. Wherein whether the user terminal makes multiple connections may depend on the terminal capabilities. It should be noted that the multiple connections may be planned in advance by the base station a before obtaining the shared resource from the neighboring base station, or may be fed back to the base station a by the user terminal, for example, the user terminal sends a measurement report or indication information to the base station a, so as to initiate a multiple connection procedure to the neighboring base station.
Optionally, in this embodiment, after the current base station allocates the resource to be allocated on the current base station to the first terminal, and after the current base station determines that the idle resource of the current base station itself meets the requirement of the service requested by the service request, the resource to be allocated is released. The manner of releasing the resources to be allocated may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: releasing the resources to be allocated at one time, gradually releasing the resources to be allocated according to the requirement or priority sequence, and releasing the resources to be allocated according to a release request which is sent by the adjacent base station and used for requesting to release the resources to be allocated.
Specifically, the following example is combined, and it is assumed that the current base station is a base station a and the first terminal is a user terminal G. The user terminal G sends a service request to the base station a, after the base station a receives the service request sent by the user terminal G, the base station a detects that a Radio resource utilization rate (e.g., a Radio Bearer (RB) utilization rate) reaches a first resource utilization threshold, and if the first resource utilization threshold is set to 70%, triggers the base station a to send a resource sharing request to a set of neighboring base stations, for example, sends the resource sharing request through an X2 interface, so as to obtain an available state of communication resources of each neighboring base station. Assume that the set of neighboring base stations includes: base station B, corresponding to available communication resources 20M; a base station C corresponding to the available communication resources 10M; base station D, corresponds to available communication resource 5M. The shared resource may be acquired first to the base station B with the most abundant resource and if rejected, the base station a may acquire the shared resource to the base station C with the second most abundant resource. Further, if the available communication resources in the base station C cannot meet the requirement, the shared resources may be obtained from multiple base stations, for example, the shared resources may be continuously obtained from the base station D, so as to try to ensure that all terminals (including the user terminal G) in the cell where the current base station (i.e., the base station a) is located obtain the predetermined QOS at the same time.
When the utilization of the radio resources of the base station a decreases to the second resource utilization threshold, for example, the second resource utilization threshold is set to 50%, and stabilizes for a predetermined time T, the base station a may choose to gradually release the X2 interface connections with other neighboring base stations. For example, base station C is released first, and then base station B is released. The priority of the radio resource utilization may be that the base station a is the primary resource, for example, occupies 90% of the total resource, and the other neighboring base station resources are the secondary resources, for example, occupies 10% of the total resource.
According to the embodiment provided by the application, the current base station receives a service request sent by a first terminal; the current base station judges whether the self idle resources of the current base station meet the requirements of the service requested by the service request; and if not, the current base station allocates the resources to be allocated on the current base station to the first terminal, wherein at least part of the resources to be allocated are shared resources acquired from the neighboring base station set of the current base station. That is to say, the current base station determines, according to the service request sent by the first terminal, whether to allocate, to the first terminal, a resource to be allocated, where at least part of the resource is a shared resource acquired from a set of neighboring base stations of the current base station, so as to ensure the established service quality of the first terminal, without configuring a large number of small base stations under the condition that the service request is increased, which not only saves the cost of resource allocation, but also greatly improves the efficiency of resource allocation. Furthermore, by acquiring the shared resource from the adjacent base station, the idle resource of the adjacent base station can be fully utilized, so that the problem of resource waste is avoided, and the effect of improving the resource utilization rate is realized.
As an optional scheme, the method further comprises the following steps:
1) a first obtaining unit, configured to obtain, in advance, before a current base station receives a service request sent by a first terminal, a communication resource required by the first terminal to execute a service requested by the service request, where the service is executed after the first terminal sends the service request;
2) the second judgment unit is used for judging whether the self idle resources of the current base station meet the communication resources required by the service;
3) a second obtaining unit, configured to request, when it is determined that the communication resource is not satisfied, a neighboring base station in the neighboring base station set to obtain an available communication resource of the neighboring base station;
4) a third acquiring unit, configured to acquire an available communication resource as a shared resource.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the allocation unit includes: the first allocation module is used for allocating the resource to be allocated, which contains the shared resource, to the first terminal.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the shared resource obtained from the neighboring base station of the current base station may be, but is not limited to, obtained in advance before the terminal sends the service request according to a pre-plan. That is, since the current base station may know some predetermined events requiring a large amount of communication resources in advance, for example, peak hours during work or work, the current base station may acquire the shared resources from the neighboring base stations in advance before the trigger time of the predetermined event is reached. For example, if 10:00 is a rush hour of a subway station on duty, the current base station may request to acquire an available communication resource of the neighboring base station as a shared resource of the current base station from the neighboring base station of the current base station at 9:50 in advance, for example, acquire an available communication resource 10M from the base station B as a shared resource, so that when 10:00 arrives, after a plurality of terminals including the first terminal send service requests, the resource of the current base station and the shared resource acquired by 9:50 may be jointly allocated to the terminal including the first terminal in the subway station as a resource to be allocated.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the neighboring base station may, but is not limited to, share the redundant available communication resource as a shared resource to the current base station according to its own needs. That is, if the neighboring base station does not occupy part of the idle resources but is reserved for other applications, the shared resource acquisition request sent by the current base station may also be rejected, so that the current base station acquires the shared resources from other neighboring base stations. Further, if the priority of the current base station is higher than that of the neighboring base station, the available communication resources of the neighboring base station need to be shared preferentially to the current base station. According to different priority relationships among the base stations, the neighboring base stations may make different selections, which is not limited in this embodiment.
By the embodiment provided by the application, before the service request sent by the first terminal is obtained, the shared resource is obtained according to the pre-planning, so that after the service request sent by the first terminal is received, the shared resource obtained in advance from the adjacent base station can be allocated to the first terminal as the resource to be allocated, and the terminal in the range of the current base station can ensure a set service instruction under the condition that the service request is increased rapidly. Furthermore, a large number of small base stations can be prevented from being temporarily configured, so that the aim of improving the resource allocation efficiency is fulfilled.
As an alternative, the allocation unit includes:
1) a first obtaining module, configured to request a neighboring base station in a set of neighboring base stations to obtain available communication resources of the neighboring base station;
2) a second obtaining module, configured to obtain an available communication resource as a shared resource;
3) and the second allocating module is used for allocating the resources to be allocated, which contain the shared resources, to the first terminal.
Optionally, in this embodiment, after receiving the service request sent by the terminal, the current base station may further obtain an available communication resource as a shared resource from a neighboring base station of the current base station, so as to meet the requirement of the service request.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the current base station may also directly obtain the shared resource from the neighboring base station of the current base station when determining that the current idle resource cannot meet the service requested by the service request of the terminal. That is, the present embodiment can be directly applied to a scenario where a shared resource is temporarily acquired. For example, still with the power of a subway station at a peak of 10:00 work, the current base station requests to acquire a 10M available communication resource of the neighboring base station as a shared resource of the current base station at 9:50 in advance, and further, when the 10:00 arrives and after a plurality of terminals including the first terminal send service requests, the current base station judges that the resource of the current base station and the shared resource acquired at 9:50 still do not satisfy the service requested by the service request, may temporarily send the resource sharing request to the neighboring base station again to acquire the shared resource. Therefore, the resources of the current base station, the shared resources obtained at a ratio of 9:50 and the shared resources obtained again are jointly used as resources to be allocated to the terminal containing the first terminal in the subway station.
By the embodiment provided by the application, after receiving the service request sent by the first terminal, the shared resource can be temporarily acquired from the neighboring base station of the current base station according to the actual requirement of the service requested by the service request sent by the first terminal, so that the terminal in the range of the current base station can guarantee a set service instruction under the condition that the service request is increased suddenly. Furthermore, a large number of small base stations can be prevented from being temporarily configured, so that the aim of improving the resource allocation efficiency is fulfilled.
As an optional scheme, the method further comprises the following steps:
1) a processing unit for obtaining a shared resource by:
s1, sending a resource sharing request to the neighboring base station set, wherein the resource sharing request is used for acquiring the available state of the communication resources of each neighboring base station in the neighboring base station set;
s2, acquiring indication information which is sent by the adjacent base station and used for indicating the available state of the communication resources;
s3, acquiring a target adjacent base station which provides shared resources for the current base station in the adjacent base station set according to the indication information;
s4, sending a shared resource acquisition request to the target adjacent base station, wherein the shared resource acquisition request is used for requesting to acquire available communication resources of the target adjacent base station;
s5, obtaining the available communication resource of the target neighboring base station as the shared resource.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the target neighboring base station may include, but is not limited to, one or more. That is, only one neighboring base station may be selected as the target neighboring base station each time by polling in sequence, and the next target neighboring base station is acquired when needed; it is also possible to acquire a plurality of neighboring base stations at a time as target neighboring base stations. When the resource sharing request is sent, the resource sharing request may be sequentially sent to the neighboring base stations in the neighboring base station set in a sequential polling manner, or the resource sharing request may be sent to the neighboring base stations in the neighboring set at the same time.
Specifically, the description is made with reference to fig. 2, which takes a neighboring base station as a target neighboring base station as an example. Assume that the current base station is base station a, and the neighbor base station set of the current base station includes base station B, base station C, and base station D, wherein assume that the base station B selected by the comparison is the target neighbor base station of the current base station.
S202, a base station A sends a resource sharing request to a neighboring base station set (including a base station B), wherein the resource sharing request is used for acquiring the available state of communication resources of each neighboring base station in the neighboring base station set;
s204, the base station B responds to the resource sharing request and sends indication information for indicating the available state of the communication resources to the base station A;
s206, the base station A acquires a target adjacent base station providing shared resources for the base station A in the adjacent base station set according to the acquired indication information, and assumes that the acquired available state of the communication resources indicates the base station B with the most abundant available communication resources as the target adjacent base station;
s208, the base station A sends a shared resource acquisition request to a base station B serving as a target adjacent base station;
s210, the base station a obtains the available communication resource of the base station B as a shared resource, so as to allocate at least part of the resource to the first terminal from the to-be-allocated resource of the shared resource obtained from the neighboring base station set of the current base station.
According to the embodiment provided by the application, the available state of the communication resources of each adjacent base station in the adjacent base station set is obtained by sending the resource sharing request, further, the target adjacent base station is selected according to the obtained available state of the communication resources, and then the shared resource obtaining request is sent to the target adjacent base station to obtain the available communication resources in the target adjacent base station as the shared resources, so that the target adjacent base station meeting the current requirement is selected after the available states of the communication resources in each adjacent base station in the adjacent base station set are compared, and the resource utilization rate is improved while the waste of idle resources in the adjacent base stations is avoided.
As an optional scheme, the processing unit sends the shared resource acquisition request to the target neighboring base station by at least one of the following manners:
s1, sending a resource sharing request to the adjacent base station in the adjacent base station set through a preset logic interface, so that the current base station directly obtains the available communication resource of the adjacent base station; or
S2, sending a resource sharing request to a neighboring base station in the set of neighboring base stations through the base station management network element, so that the base station management network element obtains available communication resources of the neighboring base stations.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the manner of sending the resource sharing request may also include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: and sequentially polling and sending the resource sharing request to each adjacent base station, and simultaneously sending the resource sharing request to each adjacent base station.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, in general, when the number of neighboring base stations is small, a predetermined logical interface is used to apply for the application, and the time delay is small; when the number of the adjacent base stations is large, the base station management network element is used to avoid the signaling congestion as much as possible.
Specifically, as described in conjunction with the following example, when the number of neighboring base stations is small, the resource sharing request may be sent to the neighboring base stations in the set of neighboring base stations through a predetermined logical interface. As shown in fig. 3, the current base station (i.e., base station a, eNB a shown in the figure) transmits a resource sharing request to the neighboring base station B (i.e., eNB B shown in the figure) and the neighboring base station C (i.e., eNB C shown in the figure) through a predetermined logical interface X2 interface.
Specifically, the following example is used to explain that, when the number of neighboring base stations is large, the resource sharing request may be sent to the neighboring base stations in the set of neighboring base stations through the base station management network element. As shown in fig. 4, the current base station (i.e., base station a, eNB a shown in the figure) may uniformly transmit a resource sharing request to the neighboring base station B (i.e., eNB B shown in the figure) and the neighboring base station C (i.e., eNB C shown in the figure) through the base station management network element.
Through the embodiment provided by the application, different modes can be selected to interact with the adjacent base stations in the adjacent base station set, so that the interaction efficiency is improved, and the effect of improving the resource allocation efficiency is realized.
As an optional scheme, the processing unit obtains, according to the indication information, a target neighboring base station in the neighboring base station set that provides shared resources for the current base station, by:

and S2, sequentially sending shared resource acquisition requests by taking the corresponding adjacent base stations as target adjacent base stations according to the order of the resource entries in the available communication resource list.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the resource entry may further include priority information of each neighboring base station.
That is, the resource entries in the available communication list may be sorted only according to the size of the available communication resources, may be sorted only according to the priority order of the neighboring base stations, and may be sorted by combining the priority of the neighboring base station corresponding to each available communication resource and the size of the available communication resources. This is not limited in this embodiment.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the processing unit generates the available communication resource list according to the indication information by:
s1, acquiring the priority information of the neighboring base station carried in the available state of the communication resource indicated by the indication information and/or the configuration information of the available communication resource in the neighboring base station;
s2, generating a list of available communication resources according to the priority information of the neighboring base station and/or the configuration information of the available communication resources.
For example, the neighboring base station set of base station a includes: base station B, corresponding to available communication resources 20M; a base station C corresponding to the available communication resources 10M; base station D, corresponds to available communication resource 5M. As an alternative, the sequence of the neighboring base stations in the available communication list obtained by the base station a may be obtained as follows according to the size of the available communication resource: base station B, base station C and base station D; as another alternative, if the priority of the base station C is higher than that of the base station B, and the priority of the base station D is higher than that of the base stations B and C, the following sequence may be obtained according to the available communication resource size according to the sequence of the neighboring base stations in the available communication list obtained by the base station a according to the priority sequence: base station D, base station C, and base station B.
It should be noted that, for the neighboring base stations with priority relationship, priority order is prioritized; for neighboring base stations having no priority relationship, or neighboring base stations belonging to the same priority, the sorting according to the size of the available communication resources may be considered. This is not limited in this embodiment.
According to the embodiment provided by the application, the available communication resource list with the preset sequence is generated, so that the adjacent base stations sequentially corresponding to the sequence in the available communication resource list acquire the available communication resources as the shared resources, and the shared resources are acquired quickly and timely, so that the purpose of improving the resource allocation efficiency is achieved.
As an optional scheme, the processing unit sequentially sends the shared resource acquisition request to the corresponding neighboring base stations as the target neighboring base station according to the order of the resource entries in the available communication resource list by the following steps:
s1, if receiving the response message of rejecting sharing sent by the target neighboring base station, sending a request for obtaining shared resources by using the next sequential neighboring base station in the available communication resources list as the target neighboring base station.
Specifically, as illustrated in fig. 5, assume that the current base station (i.e., base station a) interacts with the neighboring base stations via an X2 interface. The neighboring base stations of base station a include base station B and base station C, wherein base station B precedes base station C in the order of the available communication list.

s504, the base station A receives the response message of refusing to share sent by the base station B;
s506, the base station A sends a shared resource acquisition request to the base station C;
s508, after the base station C agrees to share the available communication resource with the base station a, the base station a obtains the available communication resource of the base station C as a shared resource.
Specifically, as described in conjunction with fig. 6, it is assumed that the current base station (i.e., base station a) interacts with the neighboring base stations through the base station management network element 602.
S602, a base station a sends a shared resource acquisition request to a base station management network element 602, where the shared resource acquisition request at least carries a base station identifier of a target neighboring base station;
s604, if the base station management network element 602 learns, through processing, that the target neighboring base station requested by the base station a rejects sharing resources to any base station, the base station management network element 602 sends a response message of rejecting sharing to the base station a.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the target neighboring base station may refuse to share resources with the current base station. In addition, each neighboring base station in the neighboring base station set can also reject the resource sharing request sent by the single-sign base station so as to reject the available state of the communication resources of the neighboring base station provided for the current base station,
By the embodiment provided by the application, the adjacent base station of the current base station can give priority to the service requirement of the adjacent base station, and under the condition of ensuring the normal operation of the adjacent base station, the available communication resources are shared with the current base station, so that the adjacent base station can also refuse to provide the available communication resources as common resources for the current base station. Therefore, the resource utilization rate of each base station is improved, and resource waste is avoided.

Wherein whether the user terminal makes multiple connections may depend on the terminal capabilities. It should be noted that the multiple connections may be planned in advance by the base station a before obtaining the shared resource from the neighboring base station, or may be fed back to the base station a by the user terminal, for example, the user terminal sends a measurement report to the base station a, so as to initiate a multiple connection procedure to the neighboring base station.
Specifically, referring to fig. 7, a user terminal G and a base station A, B, C (i.e. eNB a, eNB B, and eNB C shown in the figure) establish a multi-connection, where the user terminal G includes 3 MAC entities respectively corresponding to resource scheduling of 3 base stations. After establishing multi-connection with the base station B and the base station C through the base station a, the user terminal G can directly communicate with the base station B and the base station C on the corresponding shared resources.
By the embodiment provided by the application, the problem that numerous resources cannot be effectively scheduled due to frequent switching of the edge user terminal is avoided in a multi-connection mode.
As an optional scheme, the judging unit includes at least one of:

3) And the third judging module is used for judging whether the triggering time of the preset event is reached, wherein after the triggering time of the preset event is reached, the number of the terminals sending the service request is greater than or equal to a third preset threshold, and the terminals comprise the first terminal.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the triggering time of the predetermined event may be, but is not limited to, a fixed playing time of a predetermined video program, which is not limited in this embodiment.
As an optional scheme, the method further comprises the following steps:
1) and the releasing unit is used for releasing the resources to be allocated after the resources to be allocated on the current base station are allocated to the first terminal and the self idle resources of the current base station are judged to meet the requirement of the service requested by the service request.

2) and the second release submodule is used for refusing to release the resources to be allocated or gradually releasing the resources to be allocated when the priority of the current base station is higher than that of the adjacent base station.
Specifically, the following example is combined to explain, after the current base station (i.e., base station a) allocates the resource to be allocated to the first terminal, and after the base station a determines that its own idle resource meets the requirement of the service requested by the service request, when the utilization rate of the radio resource of the base station a decreases to 50% of the preset threshold and stabilizes for a predetermined time T, the base station a may select to release all shared resources once, and may also gradually release shared resources of other neighboring base stations. For example, the shared resource provided by the base station C is released first, and then the shared resource provided by the base station B is released. The resources to be allocated can also be released according to a release request sent by the neighboring base station for requesting to release the resources to be allocated. For example, the base station B sends a release request, and the priority of the base station a is higher than that of the base station B, the base station a may refuse to release the shared resource provided by the base station B, or gradually release the shared resource provided by the base station B, for example, first release 50% and then release 20% until all the shared resources are released.

For another example, in a large cinema, each auditorium is equipped with a fixed terminal through which the users interact, which requires a large amount of resources to be consumed in a short time, and therefore also requires a reasonable allocation of the communication resources required by the terminals. The above is only an example, and this is not limited in this embodiment.
