Operations that the above-described DMA control unit, DPDK network card, and CPU need to perform when transmitting IQ data in uplink and downlink are described below, respectively.
When transmitting downlink IQ data in downlink
On the basis of the above embodiment, the timing information is a first interrupt message sent by the CB unit at the nth time; the first interruption message carries a first target subframe identifier; the BBU unit is configured to send downlink IQ data to the CB unit on the downlink subframe corresponding to the first target subframe identifier, and store the downlink IQ data to be sent at the N +1 th time in the memory space of the BBU unit to the cache space of the BBU unit.
In this embodiment, the first interrupt message carries a first target-subframe indicator, where the first target-subframe indicator may include at least one of a numerical value, a character and an english letter, and for example, the first target-subframe indicator may be SF0 or SF 1. Further, the first interrupt message is also used to trigger the BBU unit to send downlink IQ data. When the first target subframe identifier corresponds to a downlink subframe or a downlink special subframe, the BBU unit may send downlink IQ data to the CB unit, and at the same time, the BBU unit may further execute bottom software to store the downlink IQ data to be sent at the N +1 th time in the memory space of the BBU unit to the cache space of the BBU unit, and the bottom software is used to store the downlink IQ data to be sent at the N +1 th time in the memory space of the BBU unit to the cache space of the BBU unit, so that sending of the downlink IQ data is not affected, that is, the sending of the downlink IQ data and storing of the downlink IQ data to be sent at the next time are executed by using different layers of software, and the two do not affect each other, thereby improving accuracy of data sending; in addition, the bottom layer software is used for storing the downlink IQ data to be sent at the N +1 th time in the memory space of the BBU unit to the cache space of the BBU unit, so that the BBU unit can conveniently and rapidly read the downlink IQ data to be sent from the cache space of the BBU unit when the downlink IQ data to be sent needs to be sent, the sending efficiency of the downlink IQ data to be sent is improved, and the real-time requirement of communication is improved. It should be noted that, when the downlink IQ data sent by the BBU unit at the nth time is at the nth-1 time, the BBU unit stores data to the buffer space of the BBU unit.
Optionally, the nth time is a time corresponding to the nth 1PPS minus a preset compensation time. Further, the preset compensation duration is a duration determined according to a time delay, and the time delay includes at least one of the following: delay generated when a network packet corresponding to IQ data is transmitted between the BBU unit and the CB unit; the IQ data comprises downlink IQ data and uplink IQ data; the inherent time delay corresponding to the CB unit, the extension unit and the remote unit respectively, the transmission time delay between the CB unit and the extension unit and the transmission time delay between the extension unit and the remote unit.

In this embodiment, when the BBU unit starts sending the downlink IQ Data, the DMA control unit may automatically write the downlink IQ Data corresponding to the first target subframe identifier into a network card queue in a Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK) network card from a buffer space of the BBU unit, so as to prepare for the BBU unit to send the downlink IQ Data. After the DPDK network card determines the priority of the downlink IQ data, the CPU may determine the transmission order of the downlink IQ data according to the priority of the downlink IQ data, and transmit the downlink IQ data when the transmission order of the downlink IQ data arrives. Optionally, the higher the priority of the downlink IQ data is, the earlier the transmission order is.
Optionally, the DPDK network card may determine, according to the VLAN identifier of the downlink IQ data, the priority corresponding to the VLAN identifier of the downlink IQ data as the priority of the downlink IQ data, for example, if the VLAN identifier of the downlink IQ data is 2 and the corresponding priority is a medium priority, the DPDK network card may determine that the priority of the downlink IQ data is the medium priority. Optionally, the timing information sent by the CB unit also has a priority, and the DPDK network card may determine the priority of the timing information according to the VLAN identifier of the timing information, for example, if the VLAN identifier of the timing information is 1, and the corresponding priority is the highest priority, the DPDK network card may determine that the priority of the timing information is the highest priority. Different data have different priorities, so that the BBU unit can conveniently determine the order of receiving or sending the data according to the priorities of the different data, and timely receive or send the data with higher priorities, thereby improving the real-time requirement of communication.
Optionally, the CB unit may send the received downlink IQ data sent by the BBU unit to the extension unit, and then the extension unit broadcasts the downlink IQ data to each remote unit, so that the remote unit converts the received downlink IQ data into radio frequency information, and transmits the radio frequency information to the air through the antenna.
(II) when transmitting uplink IQ data in uplink
On the basis of the above embodiment, the timing information is a second interrupt message sent by the CB unit at the mth time; the second interruption message carries a second target subframe identifier; the CB unit is also used for sending first uplink IQ data to the BBU unit after the Mth moment; the BBU unit is used for receiving the first uplink IQ data sent by the CB unit and storing second uplink IQ data in a network card queue of the DPDK network card to a memory space of the BBU unit; and the second uplink IQ data is uplink IQ data sent by the CB unit and received by the BBU unit at the M-1 moment.
In this embodiment, the second interrupt message carries a second target-subframe indicator, where the second target-subframe indicator may include at least one of a numerical value, a character, and an english letter, and for example, the second target-subframe indicator may be SF0 or SF 1. Further, the second interrupt message is also used to trigger the BBU unit to receive the uplink IQ data. When the second target subframe identifier corresponds to an uplink subframe or an uplink special subframe, the BBU unit may receive the first uplink IQ data from the CB unit, and at the same time, the BBU unit may further execute bottom software to store the second uplink IQ data in the network card queue of the DPDK network card to a memory space of the BBU unit; and the second uplink IQ data is uplink IQ data sent by the CB unit and received by the BBU unit at the M-1 moment.
The second uplink IQ data sent by the CB unit and received by the BBU unit at the M-1 moment is received by bottom software, so that the receiving of the first uplink IQ data is not influenced, namely, the first uplink IQ data is received and the second uplink IQ data received at the last moment is stored by the software of different layers, and the first uplink IQ data and the second uplink IQ data are not influenced mutually, so that the conflict between the storage data and the receiving data of the BBU unit is avoided, and the data sending accuracy is improved; in addition, the bottom layer software is used for storing the uplink IQ data received at the M-1 th time in the memory space of the BBU unit to the memory space of the BBU unit so as to complete the reception of the uplink IQ data, and the first uplink IQ data is received and the second uplink IQ data is stored at the same time, so that the reception efficiency of the uplink IQ data can be improved, and the real-time requirement of communication is improved. Optionally, the mth time is a time corresponding to the mth 1PPS plus a preset compensation duration.
When the BBU unit sends downlink IQ data to the CB unit, the downlink IQ data is sent in advance with a preset compensation duration, and when the BBU unit receives uplink IQ data sent by the CB unit, the uplink IQ data is received after the preset compensation duration, which is to achieve air interface alignment and ensure continuity of data reception and data transmission of the user terminal.
Optionally, the DPDK network card is configured to determine a priority of the first uplink IQ data, determine a receiving order of the first uplink IQ data according to the priority of the first uplink IQ data, and receive the first uplink IQ data when the receiving order of the first uplink IQ data arrives; and the CPU is also used for writing the second uplink IQ data into the cache space of the BBU unit and writing the second uplink IQ data in the cache space of the BBU unit into the memory space of the BBU unit.
In this embodiment, when the BBU unit receives the first uplink IQ data, the DPDK network card may determine the priority of the first uplink IQ data, so that the CPU determines the receiving order of the first uplink IQ data according to the priority of the first uplink IQ data, and receives the first uplink IQ data when the receiving order of the first uplink IQ data arrives. Optionally, the higher the priority of the first uplink IQ data is, the earlier the receiving order is. Optionally, priorities of all IQ data (including downlink IQ data, downlink IQ data to be transmitted, first uplink IQ data, and second uplink IQ data, and the like) may be the same, and thus the priorities of the first uplink IQ data and the downlink IQ data may be the same. Further, similar to the above-mentioned manner of determining the priority of the downlink IQ data, the DPDK network card may determine, according to the VLAN id of the first uplink IQ data, the priority corresponding to the VLAN id of the first uplink IQ data as the priority of the first uplink IQ data, for example, if the VLAN id of the first uplink IQ data is 2 and the corresponding priority is a medium priority, the DPDK network card may determine that the priority of the first uplink IQ data is the medium priority.
Optionally, the first uplink IQ data and the second uplink IQ data sent by the CB unit to the BBU unit are sent from the remote unit to the expansion unit, and are sent to the CB unit after being combined by the expansion unit. Further, the CB unit needs to convert the first uplink IQ data and the second uplink IQ data of the CPRI protocol received from the extension unit into uplink IQ data of the eccri protocol. The BBU may transmit the first uplink IQ data and the second uplink IQ data received from the CB to the core network through the network.
Optionally, the CB unit may send the received downlink IQ data sent by the BBU unit to the extension unit, and then the extension unit broadcasts the downlink IQ data to each remote unit, so that the remote unit converts the received downlink IQ data into radio frequency information, and transmits the radio frequency information to the air through the antenna.
In the above two sections (a) and (b), operations that the DMA control unit, the DPDK network card, the CPU, and the like need to perform when transmitting IQ data in the uplink and in the downlink are described. When transmitting IQ data in a downlink, transmitting downlink IQ data and storing downlink IQ data to be transmitted at the next moment are executed by using different layers of software, and the downlink IQ data and the stored downlink IQ data cannot influence each other, so that the accuracy of data transmission is improved; in addition, the bottom layer software is used for storing the downlink IQ data to be sent at the N +1 th time in the memory space of the BBU unit to the cache space of the BBU unit, so that the BBU unit can conveniently and rapidly read the downlink IQ data to be sent from the cache space of the BBU unit when the downlink IQ data to be sent needs to be sent, the sending efficiency of the downlink IQ data to be sent is improved, and the real-time requirement of communication is improved. When transmitting IQ data in an uplink, receiving first uplink IQ data and storing second uplink IQ data at the previous moment are executed by using different layers of software, and the first uplink IQ data and the second uplink IQ data cannot influence each other, so that the conflict between the data stored in the BBU and the received data is avoided, and the accuracy of data transmission is improved; in addition, the bottom layer software is used for storing the uplink IQ data received at the M-1 th time in the memory space of the BBU unit to the memory space of the BBU unit so as to complete the reception of the uplink IQ data, and the first uplink IQ data is received and the second uplink IQ data is stored at the same time, so that the reception efficiency of the uplink IQ data can be improved, and the real-time requirement of communication is improved.
