Description

Method, base station and communication system for improving data transmission performance
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to the field of wireless communications, and in particular, to a method, a base station, and a communication system for improving data transmission performance.
Background
The 5G is used as a main technology of a next generation wireless network and has the technical characteristics of supporting ultra wide band, large connection and the like. In order to enable a UE (User Equipment, user terminal) to quickly enter a connected state to transmit data and reduce signaling overhead caused by a mobility procedure and a state transition procedure, a New RRC (Radio Resource Control ) state, namely, RRC _ INACTIVE state, is introduced into an NR (New Radio interface).
In the RRC inactive state, the NAS (Non Access Stratum) of the UE remains in the connected state, but an air interface connection corresponding to the AS (Access Stratum) of the UE is temporarily suspended. Similar to the idle state, the UE in the RRC inactive state can move within an RNA (RAN Notification Area) configured on the network side. Because the UE side and the RAN (Radio Access Network) side both store the AS layer context in the inactive state of the UE, the inactive UE can perform related operations based on the previous AS layer context in the inactive state of the UE in the process of resuming the connection with the air interface of the RAN side, thereby reducing signaling interaction and enabling the UE to rapidly enter the connected state. Namely, signaling overhead can be reduced by introducing the RRC _ INACTIVE state, fast access is realized, and time delay and power consumption are reduced.
NR supports RRC _ INACTIVE state, and the network configures the UE with infrequent (with periodic and/or aperiodic) data transmissions to RRC _ INACTIVE state. Before Rel-16, the RRC _ INACTIVE state does not support data transmission. Therefore, when there is downlink data and uplink data to be transmitted, the inactive UE needs to first return to the RRC _ CONNECTED state. When data packets are small and infrequent (for example, industrial internet of things applications (such as sensor upgrade) and WeChat of smart phones), the process of switching to the inactive state after the UE enters the connected state may cause unnecessary power consumption and signaling overhead. Therefore, in order to improve network performance and efficiency, 3GPP (3 rd Generation Partnership Project) starts to study Small Data Transmission (SDT) in an inactive state at stages R15 and R16, including 2-step RACH (Random Access Channel), 4-step RACH and CG (configuration granted) type-1 methods.
In addition, in order to support high-reliability and low-delay services, the NR system proposes a CG scheduling method of type 1, which aims to further reduce the time delay of physical layer activation and deactivation, thereby reducing the service transmission time delay. The CG scheduling mode of type 1 refers to that the RRC directly configures uplink grant scheduling resources, and the UE does not need to activate or deactivate through a Physical Downlink Common Control Channel (PDCCCH) of a Physical layer when transmitting. After the uplink configuration authorization channel is successfully transmitted, the gNB (Generation NodeB, next Generation base station) does not need to schedule and transmit new data through the PDCCCH, and meanwhile, the NR system does not have a downlink feedback channel, and the UE cannot know whether new data transmission is needed. To solve this problem, NR system uplink configuration Grant scheduling introduces a Timer (Configured Grant Timer) to control new transmission/retransmission. Specifically, if the UE receives retransmission scheduling of the gNB before the timer expires, the UE performs retransmission of a MAC (Media Access Control) PDU (Protocol Data Unit), otherwise, the UE allocates a HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request) process to new transmission of another MAC PDU.
Similarly, in LTE (Long Term Evolution), dedicated pre-configured Uplink Resource (PUR) transmission is studied. In the PUR transmission, the UE in RRC _ IDLE state is allowed to perform UL transmission once using the pre-configured uplink resource without performing a random access procedure. For example, a UE in RRC _ CONNECTED state requests a PUR by transmitting a PURConfigurationRequest to an eNB (evolved NodeB). When the eNB decides to provide the UE with the PUR resource, the detailed information of the PUR configuration is contained in RRCConnectionRelease and is sent to the UE, and the resource is configured specifically for the UE and is effective in a cell configured with the resource. In addition to this, when the UE decides to start the PUR transmission, a condition such as TA (Timing Advance) needs to be satisfied.
In the SDT process, when a configuration grant SDT resource is configured on an UL (Uplink) carrier and the resource is valid, the configuration grant resource is used to transmit data. Otherwise, judging whether the UL carrier is configured with the 2-step RACH small data transmission resource, if so, selecting the 2-step RACH resource to transmit data. If not, judging whether 4-step RACH small data transmission resources are configured on the UL carrier, if so, selecting the 4-step RACH resources to transmit data, otherwise, executing a non-small data transmission process, namely, recovering to an RRC _ CONNECTED state through an RRC recovery (Resume) message to perform data transmission.
Disclosure of Invention
The inventor has noted that, during the inactive data transmission process, when the configuration grant data transmission or the random access data transmission fails due to the channel state or other reasons, it is necessary to fall back to the conventional data transmission process, i.e. to return to the RRC connected state for data transmission. The process introduces a large time delay and a high power consumption, and in order to further improve the data transmission performance in the inactive state, the following problems exist in the current standard and implementation:
lack of a more efficient inactive data transfer mechanism: at present, there is no optimization mechanism for the failure of data transmission in the inactive state, and when the data transmission in the inactive state fails, the terminal needs to recover to the connected state for data transmission, which may increase the time delay and signaling overhead of data transmission.
Failure to record the inactive data transmission: at present, related configuration information is lack of recording for an inactive state data transmission state in an RRC message, and when the inactive state data transmission fails, a terminal cannot record the number of data transmission failures and the related configuration information according to the related configuration information, so that the process cannot be optimized.
Failure to optimize the inactive data transmission performance: at present, in RRC signaling, reporting information related to transmission failure of inactive state data is lacked, and a network cannot acquire specific conditions of transmission failure of inactive state data from a terminal side, so that the transmission process of inactive state data cannot be optimized.
Based on the above requirements and reason analysis, the current 3GPP protocol cannot meet the requirements, and a new manner is needed to enhance the inactive data transmission process, so as to meet the requirements of the network on time delay and power consumption.
Therefore, the scheme for improving the data transmission performance can effectively reduce the probability of the failure of the data transmission in the inactive state.

The base station 42 is configured to send an RRC release message to the user terminal 41 in case it is decided to transfer the user terminal 41 to the inactive state, the RRC release message including SDT resource configuration information and an SDT recording function indication message.

The present disclosure is illustrated below by way of specific examples, as shown in fig. 5.
In step 501, after the UE is powered on, the UE first executes an attach procedure, and in the process, reports terminal capability information to the core network, where the terminal capability information includes a support condition of the UE for the inactive data transmission function and a support condition of the UE for the inactive data transmission process recording function.
In step 502, the base station acquires and stores terminal capability information from the core network.
In step 503, after entering the connected state, the UE sends an SDT resource configuration request to the base station for indicating the UE's preference for configuring authorized resources.
The SDT resource configuration request message includes:
-configuring a grant period and a time offset: for example, the related configuration parameter of the PURConfigurationRequest in TS36.331 is used to indicate the transmission interval between the configuration grants and the time offset for the start of the first configuration grant
-configuring the granted transport block size
-configuring an authorization timer, such as configuredgrantimer in ConfiguredGrantConfig in TS38.331 indicating a relevant parameter for assisting the UE in determining whether to transmit data (including new transmissions and retransmissions)
In step 504, the base station sends the SDT record configuration information to the UE when the UE is in the connected state.
The SDT record configuration information includes:
-duration of recording: e.g. loggetmeasurementconfiguration related configuration information in TS36.331, indicating the duration of recording the monitoring result by the UE, releasing the saved measurement information once the recorded duration is exceeded
-interval of recording: indicating and recording period of once non-activated state data transmission monitoring result
-number of inactive data transmission failures: if the data transmission fails in the recording period, the failure times are added by 1
-configuration information of the terminal: including uplink carrier information of the UE, decision condition information of inactive state data transmission, and current channel state information
In step 505, the base station sends an RRC release message to the UE when it is determined to transfer the UE to the inactive state. The RRC release message includes SDT resource configuration information and SDT recording function indication message. The SDT resource configuration information includes resource configuration information based on configuration authorization and resource configuration information based on random access.

The resource configuration information based on random access includes:
-random access preamble format: preamble for inactive random access data transmission is different from conventional random access preamble
Time-frequency resource configuration information of a random access channel
In step 506, the ue switches the current state from the connected state to the inactive state after receiving the RRC release message.
In step 507, in the inactive state, the UE determines the corresponding inactive state data transmission type according to the SDT resource configuration information sent by the base station.
In some embodiments, the UE first determines whether the SDT resource configuration information includes resource configuration information based on a configuration grant. And if the SDT resource configuration information comprises resource configuration information based on configuration authorization, determining that the type of the data transmission in the inactive state is that the data transmission in the inactive state is carried out by adopting the configuration authorization resource. Otherwise, the UE further determines whether the SDT resource configuration information includes resource configuration information based on random access. And if the SDT resource configuration information comprises resource configuration information based on random access, determining that the data transmission type in the non-activated state is the data transmission in the non-activated state by adopting random access resources, otherwise, switching the current state from the non-activated state to the connected state, and performing data transmission in the connected state.
For example, in the transmission process based on the configuration authorization, the UE determines whether to perform data transmission according to the configuration authorization timer. During the timer running, the current HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request) process is not allowed to be used for transmitting new data. When the timer stops running, the UE may use the HARQ process for the next data transmission, where the transmission includes both new transmission and retransmission: if the UE receives retransmission scheduling from the network during the running of the timer, the UE uses the HARQ for retransmission when the timer stops operating. Otherwise, the UE performs new transmission using the HARQ process.
For another example, when the UE only satisfies the inactive random access data transmission condition, the UE performs data transmission by using a random access procedure. The UE sends data to the network through Msg3 or MsgA, considering that the data may increase the Msg3 or MsgA message size, in order to ensure the transmission of the data in the inactive state, compared with the ordinary random access process, the transmission process of the data in the inactive state needs a better channel state, or the terminal needs to be closer to the center of the cell.
In step 508, the ue performs the inactive state data transmission according to the inactive state data transmission type.
In step 509, if the SDT recording function indication message sent by the base station indicates that the UE enables recording of the inactive state data transmission process, the UE records the number of times of transmission failure of the inactive state data and the terminal configuration information according to the SDT recording configuration information sent by the base station.
In step 510, if the failure times reach a preset threshold, the UE switches the current state from the inactive state to the connected state, and performs data transmission after entering the connected state. And the UE sends the SDT record information to the base station through RRC message.
The SDT recording information includes:
number of inactive state data transmission failures: the value defaults to 0. Each time when the user terminal does not receive the feedback information of the data at the base station, the user terminal indicates that the last data transmission fails, and the value is added with 1
-terminal configuration information including uplink carrier information of the user terminal, decision condition information of inactive state data transmission and current channel state information.
In step 511, after receiving the RRC message sent by the UE, the base station analyzes SDT record information included in the RRC message, determines a reason for failure of transmission of the inactive state data, and optimizes a configuration of transmission of the inactive state data of the UE.
For example, when the base station determines that the corresponding channel is not suitable for transmitting the inactive state data according to the channel state information of the UE when the inactive state data transmission fails, the base station increases the relevant threshold for transmitting the inactive state data, and decreases the proportion of the inactive state data transmission process, so as to decrease the failure probability of the inactive state data transmission.
For another example, the base station determines the applicable ranges of the SUL and the NUL according to the carrier selection information of the UE when the data transmission in the inactive state fails. And under the condition that the UE is positioned at the edge of the cell and the transmission failure times of the non-activated data on the NUL carrier exceed a preset threshold, adjusting a threshold value of carrier selection so as to select the SUL carrier for transmission when the UE is positioned at the edge of the cell again.
