Detailed Description
As mentioned in the background, if paging is performed according to the mode of the highest paging requirement of the terminal in the prior art, the paging resource will be wasted.
In order to solve the above problem, an embodiment of the present invention provides a paging method, where the method includes: determining a target paging frame corresponding to a terminal according to the terminal type of the terminal; and monitoring the paging message in the determined target paging frame.
Therefore, different paging strategies can be executed for different types of terminals according to different paging requirements of the terminals, so as to save paging resources.
In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a paging method according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the method specifically includes the following steps:
step S101, determining a target paging frame corresponding to a terminal according to the terminal type of the terminal;
the terminal is also called a terminal device or a User Equipment (UE for short).
The terminal type is a type obtained by classifying the terminals according to the paging requirements of each terminal. Optionally, the terminal type may be divided according to at least one of the following associated information of the terminal: coverage Enhancement Level (CE Level for short), repetition frequency, Discontinuous Reception (DRX) period.
The repetition times are the repetition times of data transmission between the terminal and the network. Such as the number of repetitions of sending a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) and sending a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH).
Dividing the coverage grade as the base of the terminal type, and indexing the terminal typeindexThis can be obtained from the following mapping in table 1:
TABLE 1
Cateindex Ncate=2 Ncate=2 Ncate=2 Ncate=3
0 CE Level 0 CE Level 0 CE Level 1 CE Level 0
1 CE Level 1 CE Level 2 CE Level 2 CE Level 1
2 CE Level 2
Where Ncate is the total number of terminal types supported on the current paging resource. CE Level 0, CE Level 1 and CE Level 2 are three levels of CE Level respectively.
The target paging frame is a wireless paging frame used by the terminal, and the terminal monitors paging messages in the target paging frame. The target paging frame is related to the terminal type of the terminal. Optionally, a mapping relationship (e.g., a mapping table) between the terminal type and the target paging frame may be set, so as to determine the target paging frame corresponding to the terminal type of a certain terminal according to the mapping relationship.
Optionally, for a terminal having a capability of determining a target radio frame according to a terminal type, if the base station also supports the corresponding capability, if the terminal receives indication information sent by the base station to execute step S101, the terminal determines a target paging frame according to step S101. Optionally, the indication Information is carried by a System message, such as a System Information Block (SIB) or a Master Information Block (MIB). Further, the indication mode of the system message comprises:
1) whether the corresponding capability is supported or not is explicitly indicated through the system message, for example, an indication cell with 1 bit added is indicated, and whether the corresponding capability is supported or not is indicated through different values (for example, 0 or 1) of the cell.
2) The corresponding capability is implicitly indicated to be supported through the system message, that is, if the configuration information related to the corresponding capability is configured in the system message, the capability is implicitly indicated to be supported, otherwise, the capability is not supported.
The broadcast system message has indication information indicating that the base station has paging distinguished according to the paging radio frame;
step S102, monitoring the paging message in the determined target paging frame.
After the terminal determines the target paging frame corresponding to the terminal, the target paging frame is used as the wireless paging frame for monitoring the paging message, and paging monitoring is carried out on the target paging frame.
The method described in fig. 1 is performed by the terminal side, by which a corresponding radio paging frame is determined according to the terminal type, which is called a target paging frame. The base station sends a paging message to the terminal by using the target paging frame, and the terminal monitors the paging message in the target paging frame. Therefore, the network side can design different paging strategies on different target paging frames so as to execute different paging strategies on terminals of different terminal types according to different paging requirements of the terminals and save paging resources. Further, the network side can reduce the paging delay of the terminals in part of the terminal types by designing different paging strategies for different terminal types.
In an embodiment, the determining, in step S101 in fig. 1, a target paging frame corresponding to a terminal according to a terminal type of the terminal includes: determining an initial paging frame corresponding to the terminal according to the terminal identification of the terminal; and determining a target paging frame corresponding to the terminal according to the initial paging frame and the terminal type.

Optionally, the determining, according to the initial paging frame and the terminal type, a target paging frame corresponding to the terminal includes: determining the target paging frame using the following equation (1):
SFN’=(Ncate×SFN+Cateindex)mod{Ncate×floor[max(SFN)/Ncate]} (1)
wherein SFN' is the target paging frame, Ndate is the total number of terminal types supported on the current paging resource, and CateindexThe SFN is an initial paging frame which is an index of the terminal type.
mod () represents the remainder of the value in parentheses, floor () represents the rounding down of the value in parentheses, and max () represents the maximum value of the value in parentheses. Optionally, max (SFN) is the total number of SFNs, i.e. 1024.
Alternatively, the SFN may be determined according to the following equation (2):
SFN mod T= (T div N)×(UE_ID mod N) (2)
where, T is a DRX cycle of a terminal (also referred to as UE), N is min (T, nB), div is integer division, UE _ ID is an identification number (Identity, abbreviated as ID) of a terminal identifier, UE _ ID is IMSI mod 1024N, IMSI is an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (International Mobile Subscriber Identity), which is abbreviated as IMSI, and nB is the number of paging occasions in a paging radio frame.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a corresponding relationship between a target paging frame and an initial paging frame according to an embodiment of the present invention, where terminal types are divided according to CE Level, and the terminal types include three types, which respectively correspond to CE Level 0, CE Level 1, and CE Level 2. The radio frame numbers of the initial paging frames (SFN) are represented by SF #0, SF #1 … SF #1022, SF #1023, each initial paging frame corresponds to a target paging frame (SFN ') of each of the three terminal types, for example, when the SFN is SF #0, if the terminal type of the terminal corresponds to CE Level 0, the radio frame number of the SFN' of the terminal is SF # 0; when the SFN is SF #1, if the terminal type of the terminal corresponds to CE Level 1, the radio frame number of the SFN' of the terminal is SF # 1; when the SFN is SF #2, if the terminal type of the terminal corresponds to CE Level 2, the radio frame number of the SFN' of the terminal is SF # 2; and so on.
It should be noted that, the manner of determining the initial paging frame by the terminal includes, but is not limited to, the method of formula (1), and other methods in the prior art may also be adopted.
In this embodiment, an algorithm for determining a target paging frame corresponding to a terminal is provided, where the terminal, a base station, and a network side have the same understanding on the algorithm, so as to determine the target paging frame corresponding to the terminal according to a terminal type of the terminal, so as to successfully send or receive a paging message.
