Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a system architecture of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 1, the system of the present invention includes a data source, a Broadcast Multicast Service Center (BM-SC), an MBMS Gateway (MBMS-Gateway, MBMS-GW), a Mobility Management Entity (MME), a Multi-cell/Multicast Coordination Entity (MCE), an eNB1, an. After an MBMS data packet is transmitted from a data source to a BM-SC, the BM-SC shapes and adds a time stamp to the data packet, the processed data packet is transmitted to an MBMS-GW, the MBMS-GW transmits the data packet to all eNBs in one or more MBSFN areas (areas) through IP multicast, and then the data packet is transmitted to UE through a wireless channel by the eNBs. The MCE determines the length of a scheduling period, the MBSFN subframe is divided into a plurality of scheduling periods according to the length of the scheduling period, the eNB schedules the transmission of the data packets by taking the scheduling periods as granularity, and specifically, the eNB determines the scheduling period in which each data packet is transmitted according to a timestamp added to each data packet by the BM-SC.
In order to improve the utilization rate of wireless resources, in each scheduling period, an eNB dynamically configures the corresponding relation between a service identifier and a Logical channel identifier (LCH ID) of an MBMS according to MBMS data to be sent in the scheduling period, namely, the corresponding relation between the service identifier and the LCHID of the MBMS is configured only when the MBMS has data to be sent, a plurality of MBMS data can be carried in the same MBSFN subframe, the Logical channel identifiers are used for distinguishing different MBMS data in the same MBSFN subframe, and in one scheduling period, the service identifiers and the LCH ID of the MBMS are in one-to-one correspondence. Because LCH ID is fully utilized in each scheduling period, the utilization rate of MBSFN subframes is improved, thereby reducing the quantity of MCH configuration, reducing the quantity of MBSFN subframes configured by each MCH, and improving the utilization rate of radio resources.
The technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below with specific examples. The following several specific embodiments may be combined with each other, and details of the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments.
Fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart of a first embodiment of a data transmission method according to the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the present embodiment is executed by a base station, and the method of the present embodiment is as follows:
s201: and the base station sends first information to the UE, wherein the first information comprises the first corresponding relation.
Wherein, the first corresponding relation is the corresponding relation between the MCH and the MBSFN subframe.
The MCE configures one or more MCHs for the base station, configures an MBSFN subframe corresponding to the MCHs, and the base station carries a correspondence between the MCHs and the MBSFN subframe in first information to send the first information to the UE, where the first information may be a Multicast Control Channel (MCCH) message.
And the UE receives the first information at the position of the first information indicated in the system broadcast message and acquires the first corresponding relation.
S202: and the base station generates a second corresponding relation according to the MBMS data to be sent in the first scheduling period.
The second correspondence is the correspondence between the service identifier of the MBMS to be transmitted and the LCH ID in the first scheduling period.
Wherein the first scheduling period is a current scheduling period.
The base station can generate a second corresponding relation according to the MBMS data to be sent in the current scheduling period in a third scheduling period; or in the first scheduling period, a second corresponding relationship may be generated according to MBMS data to be transmitted in the first scheduling period. That is, the base station can know in advance the MBMS to be transmitted in each scheduling period, and as to which scheduling period specifically generates the second corresponding relationship, the present invention is not limited, and the third scheduling period is the previous scheduling period of the first scheduling period.
The service identity may comprise at least one of the following identities: a Temporary Mobile Group Identity (TMGI), Session ID, or other Identity, which is not limited in this respect.
That is, the second corresponding relationship is dynamically generated according to the data condition of the MBMS to be transmitted in the first scheduling period, and if the MBMS to be transmitted in the first scheduling period is different, the second corresponding relationship is also different, and only when there is data to be transmitted in the MBMS, the LCH ID is occupied, that is, the corresponding relationship between the service identifier of the MBMS to be transmitted and the LCH ID is established. Thus, different MBMS may correspond to the same LCH ID in different scheduling periods.
For example: in the first scheduling period, data is transmitted to MBMS1, MBMS3, MBMS5, MBMS6, and MBMS7, the service identifiers corresponding to MBMS1, MBMS3, MBMS5, MBMS6, and MBMS7 are Session 1, Session3, Session5, Session6, and Session7, respectively, and the second correspondence established is shown in table 1:
TABLE 1 second correspondences
In the second scheduling period, data is transmitted to MBMS1, MBMS4, MBMS5, MBMS7, and MBMS8, the service identifiers corresponding to MBMS1, MBMS4, MBMS5, MBMS7, and MBMS8 are Session 1, Session4, Session5, Session7, and Session8, respectively, and the second correspondence established is shown in table 2:

LCH 5 |
As can be seen from tables 1 and 2, the LCH ID is only occupied when the MBMS has data to transmit. Different MBMS may correspond to the same LCH ID in different scheduling periods. When the MBMS to be transmitted changes, the correspondence between the service identifier of the MBMS and the LCH ID also changes. Therefore, the MBSFN subframe is fully utilized, the number of the MBSFN subframes configured by the MCH is reduced, and the utilization rate of radio resources is improved. For example: there are 64 MBMS, the business label of each MBMS corresponds to an LCH ID, adopt the method of the prior art, because each MCH can only bear 32 MBMS at most, need dispose two MCH at least, MCH1 and MCH2 separately, Session 1 corresponds to LCH ID1, Session2 corresponds to LCH ID2, Session3 corresponds to LCH ID3, … … Session32 corresponds to LCH ID32, Session33 corresponds to LCH ID1, Session 34 corresponds to LCH 2, Session35 corresponds to LCH ID3, MCH … … Session64 corresponds to LCH ID32, when only there are data transmissions of Session 1 and Session33, need to send the data of Session 1 at MCH1, send the data of HID2 at MCH 53933, the rest MBSFN in MCH1 and 2 are in idle state; by adopting the scheme of the invention, the corresponding relation between the service identifier of the MBMS and the LCH ID is generated according to the data of the MBMS to be sent in the scheduling period, when only Session 1 and Session33 have data to send, the corresponding relation between Session 1 and LCH ID1 is generated, and the corresponding relation between Session33 and LCH ID2 can send the data of Session 1 and Session33 in one MCH, thus improving the utilization rate of the LCH ID and the utilization rate of MBSFN subframes, thereby reducing the number of the configured MCHs, reducing the number of subframes configured by each MCH and improving the utilization rate of MBSFN resources.
The first information usually further includes a service list, where the service list is a list storing service identifiers, and when the second correspondence is generated, one possible implementation manner is as follows: and the base station generates the MBMS service identification to be sent in the first scheduling period according to the sequence of the service list in the first information.
For example: the sequence of the service list is as follows: session 1, Session2, Session3, Session4, Session5, Session6, Session7, Session8, and Session 9.
The service identifiers of the MBMS to be transmitted in the first scheduling period are respectively: if Session 1, Session3, Session4, Session6, and Session7 are used, the second correspondence relationship is generated as shown in table 3:
TABLE 3 second correspondences

As can be seen from table 3, Session 1 precedes Session3, and the logical channel id corresponding to Session 1 also precedes the logical channel id corresponding to Session 3.
Optionally, the service identifier may also be represented by a corresponding index number of the service in the service list.
S203: and the base station sends the second corresponding relation and the MBMS data to be sent to the UE through the MCH.
One possible implementation manner is as follows: the base station encapsulates the second corresponding relation in a first Media Access Control (MAC) element; another possible implementation is: the base station encapsulates the second corresponding relation in the MSI, namely the MSI not only contains the information of the corresponding relation between the LCH ID and the MBSFN subframe, but also contains the second corresponding relation; the second correspondence relationship may also be carried in other information, and the present invention is not limited thereto.
Wherein, MSI is carried in the first MBSFN subframe of each scheduling period of MCH; as shown in fig. 3, the UE obtains the second corresponding relationship by analyzing the MSI in the first MBSFN subframe of each scheduling period of the MCH.
The first MAC CE may be carried in a first MBSFN subframe of the first scheduling period of the MCH, as shown in fig. 4, in fig. 3 or fig. 4, a shaded portion represents an MBSFN subframe corresponding to the MCH; the UE may also be carried in the last MBSFN subframe of the third scheduling period of the MCH, or of course, may also be carried in other MBSFN subframes of the third scheduling period of the MCH, as long as the base station and the UE agree in advance, and which subframe carries the second correspondence, the UE acquires the second correspondence in the corresponding subframe each time, or may also be carried in the first MAC CE in each subframe of a plurality of MBSFN subframes of the first scheduling period, so as to improve the reliability of the transmission of the first MAC CE, or, each time the base station indicates the subframe carried by the second correspondence through other messages, the UE acquires the correspondence in the subframe indicated by the indication message, as long as the base station sends the second correspondence to the UE, the UE may acquire the second correspondence, and the specific form of the present invention is not limited to this.
And after the UE acquires the second corresponding relation in the corresponding subframe, acquiring an LCH ID corresponding to the service identifier of the MBMS to be received according to the second corresponding relation, acquiring an MBSFN subframe where the LCH ID is located according to the corresponding relation between the LCH ID in the MSI and the MBSFN subframe, and acquiring the data of the MBMS to be received in the MBSFN subframe where the LCH ID is located.
In this embodiment, a base station sends first information to a UE, where the first information includes a first corresponding relationship, the base station generates a second corresponding relationship according to MBMS data to be sent in a first scheduling period, where the second corresponding relationship is a corresponding relationship between a service identifier of the MBMS to be sent and an LCH ID in the first scheduling period, and the base station sends the second corresponding relationship and the MBMS data to be sent to the UE through an MCH. In each scheduling period, the corresponding relation between the MBMS and the LCH ID is dynamically configured according to the data of the MBMS to be sent in the scheduling period, namely, the corresponding relation between the MBMS and the LCH ID is configured only when the MBMS has data to be sent, and in each scheduling period, the LCH ID is fully utilized, so that the utilization rate of MBSFN subframes is improved, the number of MCHs configured is reduced, the number of MBSFN subframes configured by each MCH is also reduced, and the utilization rate of wireless resources is improved.
In the above embodiment, further, the method further includes: and the base station determines whether to send a third corresponding relation to the UE according to whether the quantity of the MBMS data to be sent in a second scheduling period or the type of the MBMS is the same as that in the first scheduling period, wherein the third corresponding relation is the corresponding relation between the service identifier of the MBMS to be sent in the second scheduling period and the LCH ID.
Specifically, if the number of MBMS data to be sent in the second scheduling period or the type of MBMS is different from the first scheduling period, the base station generates the third corresponding relationship according to the MBMS data to be sent in the second scheduling period, and sends the third corresponding relationship to the UE; specifically, the manner of generating the third corresponding relationship and the manner of sending the third corresponding relationship to the UE refer to the manner of generating and sending the second corresponding relationship, which is not described herein again.
And if the quantity of the MBMS data to be sent in the second scheduling period or the type of the MBMS is the same as that in the first scheduling period, the base station does not send the third corresponding relation to the UE. Because the third corresponding relationship is the same as the second corresponding relationship when the number of the MBMS to be transmitted in the second scheduling period or the type of the MBMS is the same as the first scheduling period, the UE may refer to the second corresponding relationship obtained in the previous scheduling period, or the base station may directly transmit the second corresponding relationship in the second scheduling period to the UE.
In order to further improve the resource utilization rate, an embodiment of the present invention further provides that, in each scheduling period, a subframe of a dedicated carrier is dynamically configured for the MCH according to the data size of the MBMS to be received, and a fourth corresponding relationship is sent to the UE, where the fourth corresponding relationship refers to a corresponding relationship between the MCH and the subframe of the dedicated carrier, so that the UE obtains, according to the fourth corresponding relationship and the corresponding relationship between the LCH ID and the MBSFN subframe, an MBSFN subframe in which the LCH ID corresponding to the MBMS to be received is located, and obtains data of the MBMS to be received in the MBSFN subframe in which the LCH ID corresponding to the MBMS to be received is located. Taking fig. 5 as an example, the upper diagram in fig. 5 represents a non-dedicated carrier, the lower diagram in fig. 5 represents a dedicated carrier, wherein the diagonal line shading represents a subframe corresponding to MCH1, the grid shading represents a subframe corresponding to MCH2, and it can be seen from the figure that MCH1 corresponds to the 2 nd subframe and the 3 rd subframe of the non-dedicated carrier and the 4 th subframe, the 5 th subframe and the 6 th subframe of the dedicated carrier; the MCH2 corresponds to the 4 th and 7 th subframes of a non-dedicated carrier and the 7 th and 8 th subframes of a dedicated carrier; the corresponding relation between the subframe of the non-dedicated carrier and the MCH is configured in a semi-static mode and cannot be changed dynamically, the corresponding relation between the subframe of the dedicated carrier and the MCH is in each scheduling period, and the base station is configured dynamically according to the size of data of the MBMS to be sent.
After determining the number of subframes for allocating dedicated carriers to each MCH, the base station allocates the subframes for dedicated carriers according to a predefined rule, for example: the subframe occupied by MCH1 is always ahead and the subframe occupied by MCH2 is always behind. According to this rule, the 4 th, 5 th, and 6 th subframes in the first scheduling period are divided into MCH1, and the 7 th and 8 th subframes are divided into MCH 2. The sub-frames of the special carrier are distributed according to a preset rule, so that the decision of a plurality of base stations can be ensured to be the same, the transmission behaviors of the base stations are ensured to be the same, and the UE can combine wireless signals.
After the base station allocates the subframes corresponding to the MCHs, the fourth corresponding relationship is established, and the fourth corresponding relationship is represented by a bitmap, which may be encapsulated in the MSI or in the second MAC CE. For example: the MSI of MCH1 contains a bitmap "0011100" corresponding to the 2 nd to 8 th sub-frames in the dedicated carrier, respectively, and 1 indicates that the sub-frame is applied to this MCH 1. The MSI of MCH2 contains a bitmap "00011" corresponding to the 4 th to 8 th subframes in the dedicated carrier, respectively, and 1 indicates that the subframe is applied to this MCH 2. And after receiving the fourth corresponding relation, the UE acquires the MBSFN subframe where the LCH ID corresponding to the MBMS to be received is located according to the fourth corresponding relation and the corresponding relation between the LCH ID and the MBSFN subframe. For example: the correspondence between the LCH ID indicated in the MSI of MCH1 and the MBSFN subframe is shown in table 4:
TABLE 4 second correspondences

The UE may obtain, according to the fourth correspondence, the 4 th subframe of the dedicated carrier corresponding to LCH 3, the 5 th subframe of the dedicated carrier corresponding to LCH 4, and the 6 th subframe of the dedicated carrier corresponding to LCH 5. And the UE acquires the data to be received in the MBSFN subframe where the LCH ID corresponding to the MBMS to be received is located.
In this embodiment, the subframe on the dedicated carrier is allocated to the MCH according to the data size of the MBMS to be transmitted in the first scheduling period, so as to achieve the purpose of flexibly allocating resources, further improve the utilization rate of resources, and better support services with strong burstiness, such as MBMS.

s601: and the UE receives first information sent by the base station, wherein the first information comprises a first corresponding relation.
The first corresponding relation is the corresponding relation between a multicast channel MCH and an MBSFN subframe.
