Description

The conversion method of MBMS point-to-point channel and point-to-multipoint channel
Technical field
The present invention relates to multimedia broadcasting and multicast service, particularly the conversion method of multimedia broadcasting and multicast service point-to-point channel and point-to-multipoint channel.
Background technology
Multimedia broadcasting and multicast service (hereinafter to be referred as MBMS) are that a corner in the 3G (Third Generation) Moblie is to the new business of multiple spot.MBMS can with channel type can be point-to-point channel according to the number of service-user, or point-to-multipoint channel.Under existing point-to-point service mechanism, the user moves to new sub-district, and used channel switches to the purpose sub-district by the cell-of-origin.Existing channel switching all is based between the point-to-point channel, and the characteristic of channel does not change.Under the MBMS business, change the variation that the sub-district might cause the characteristic of channel.
In order better this patent to be described, Fig. 9 has described the system configuration of MBMS.
The MBMS network configuration is based on GPRS (hereinafter to be referred as GPRS) core net, and increased new network element.01 broadcasting and multicast service center (hereinafter to be referred as BM-SC) are the professional control centres of MBMS system.02 Gateway GPRS Support Node (hereinafter to be referred as GGSN) and 03 Serving GPRS Support Node (hereinafter to be referred as SGSN) have constituted the transmission network of MBMS business, for the transmission of data provides route.06 attaching position register (hereinafter to be referred as HLR) is preserved and subscriber-related data, and services such as subscription authentication can be provided.04UMTS land radio access web (hereinafter to be referred as UTRAN) provides Radio Resource for the MBMS business on the interface aloft.07Uu represents the wave point between terminal and the Access Network.05 subscriber equipment (hereinafter to be referred as UE) is the terminal equipment that is used for receiving data.The professional used Radio Resource of MBMS is not user's special use, but professional thus all users share.
The user is at same SGSN in the existing system, when carrying out the sub-district switching under the different RNC, (hereinafter to be referred as SRNC) makes a strategic decision by Serving RNC, whether carry out the reorientation of SRNC, if do not carry out reorientating of SRNC, data and signaling flow just are transferred to Drift Radio Network Controller (hereinafter to be referred as DRNC) by SRNC by the Iur interface, are transferred to UE from DRNC again.In handoff procedure,, different processes is arranged according to the difference of the residing wireless connection conditions of user.
At Idle, CELL_FACH, under CELL_PCH and the URA_PCH state, UE moves to the sub-district under another RNC from the sub-district under the SRNC, the RNC of the purpose DRNC that is known as, UE can send " cell update " message and give DRNC, passes to SRNC by DRNC by the Iur interface, and SRNC can communicate with DRNC, obtain the public resource information of sub-district under the DRNC, then this information is notified to UE.The cell updating course of Fig. 7 explanation.Process is as follows:
601 UE send cell update message to DRNC after carrying out the sub-district gravity treatment.
602DRNC distributes a D-RNTI to UE, sends up signaling transmission indicating information to SRNC then.
The reorientation of SRNC is not done in the 603SRNC decision, and SRNC sends the public transmission channel resource request message to DRNC.
604DRNC tells the information of SRNC common signal channel by message public transmission channel resource response message.
605SRNC sets up the Data-carrying on the Iur interface.
606SRNC sends the cell update acknowledge message to UE, tells the public information of the new sub-district of UE and new UE sign.
607UE responds SRNC, finishes the process of cell update.
608SRNC deletes this user's of original sub-district resource.
Under the CELL_DCH state, UE moves to the sub-district under another RNC, the measurement report that SRNC sends up according to terminal, deciding to do the sub-district switches, the preparation situation of SRNC notice DRNC dedicated wireless link, after preparing by DRNC, notice SRNC, the Radio Link situation after switching by SRNC notice UE.Fig. 8 has illustrated the process that switch the sub-district under this state.
In the 701SRNC decision new sub-district under DRNC for this reason UE set up a new dedicated link.SRNC sends Radio Link to DRNC and sets up request message, tells the information of DRNC dedicated channel.
702-703DRNC sets up a new wireless dedicated link.
704DRNC sends Radio Link to SRNC and sets up response message.
705 set up the Data-carrying of Iur interface and Iub interface.
706-707 carries out the synchronous of Frame.
706-708SRNC notice UE increases a dedicated link newly.
In the existing systems, the signaling of the RRC between this UE and the RNC and user data all are to send to DRNC by SRNC, send to the user by DRNC then.
In the existing systems, this user signaling and data all are to send to DRNC by SRNC, send to the user by DRNC then.The used channel type of this user can not change before and after switching.For example, switch to dedicated channel from dedicated channel.MBMS is a kind of new point multipoint message traffic.The business of MBMS can be used the point-to-point channel transmission, perhaps uses the channel of point-to-multipoint.RNC determines the type of channel according to personnel's number of application MBMS business of the same race in the sub-district.When the number of users of using MBMS business of the same race seldom the time, the MBMS channel type is a point-to-point channel, and when the number of users of this kind business surpasses under the situation of certain thresholding, the MBMS channel type is the channel of point-to-multipoint.
Therefore, in the process that switch the sub-district, the user switches to the sub-district under the DRNC from the sub-district under the SRNC, and SRNC does not do reorientation, DRNC determines the type of MBMS channel according to the number of application MBMS business of the same race in the sub-district at user place, just might cause this user in the difference of switching the used MBMS channel type in front and back.Therefore to prepare again the MBMS channel that this user uses, be transformed into the channel of point-to-multipoint by point-to-point channel.Existing handoff technique does not relate to this kind situation.
After UE finishes above cell switch process, if the sub-district, place is because the sub-district is shifted out in other users' immigration, perhaps there are other users to add, leave MBMS business of the same race, the number of users that causes this MBMS business changes, and when surpassing threshold value, the MBMS channel type is changed.How by the MBMS channel in the DRNC notice SRNC sub-district variation having taken place, all users prepare the MBMS channel again in the SRNC notifying cell thereby make, and existing technology does not relate to this kind situation yet.
RNC is responsible for adding up the number of users of application MBMS business.When the user carries out the sub-district switching, if the sub-district under the SRNC switches to the sub-district under the DRNC, and SRNC does not reorientate, the problem that also has needs to solve is exactly that SRNC will notify DRNC user to apply for which kind of MBMS business, makes DRNC can add up the number of users of the MBMS business in the sub-district again.Because MBMS is a kind of new business, existing handover mechanism not exclusively is applicable to the MBMS business.
Summary of the invention
Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of UE and switch to another RNC, and SRNC does not have reorientation, the changing method of the change process of this user's the MBMS traffic channel types that is receiving.
Another object of the present invention provides and does not a kind ofly move in terminal, because leaving or adding MBMS business of the same race of other users, perhaps moves into, shifts out the sub-district and cause the changing method that the MBMS channel type of the use sub-district in changes.
According to an aspect of of the present present invention, the conversion method of multimedia broadcasting and multicast service point-to-point channel and point-to-multipoint channel when UE moves to sub-district under the DRNC, and under the Iur interface situation about existing, comprises step:
DRNC decision the carrying out conversion of common signal channel and dedicated channel;
The type and the common signal channel parameter of DRNC notice SRNC MBMS channel.
According to another aspect of the present invention, the conversion method of multimedia broadcasting and multicast service point-to-point channel and point-to-multipoint channel when UE is not mobile and under the situation of Iur interface existence, comprises step:
As other users' immigration, shift out this sub-district or new user and add, leave ongoing MBMS business, the number of users of MBMS in the DRNC statistics current area;
DRNC determines channel type according to the threshold value of number of users;
The invention solves as UE and move to sub-district below the DRNC, SRNC does not do under the situation of reorientation, and this UE has the MBMS business that is receiving, and the type of MBMS channel or parameter change the process of MBMS channel switch; It is not mobile to have solved UE, and links to each other with SRNC by DRNC, and ongoing MBMS business is arranged, because moving or the new business that adds of other users causes the process that the MBMS channel type changes; And solved as UE and move to sub-district below the DRNC, SRNC do not do under the situation of reorientation, DRNC statistics user's method.

Embodiment
The present invention is that solution UE moves to the sub-district under the DRNC, and SRNC does not have under the reorientation situation, and the problem that the MBMS channel type changes has proposed three kinds of methods altogether.
Process when method one has utilized existing sub-district to switch, the modification by to existing message reaches the conversion of MBMS channel.Can finish this process with four message.In addition, also, make RNC under the situation that the user moves, can correctly add up the number of users of MBMS business by modification to existing message.
Method two does not change the message that switch existing realization sub-district, by two message that increase newly, finishes the conversion of MBMS channel.The method does not influence existing handoff procedure.And the transfer process of dedicated channel to the conversion of common signal channel and common signal channel to dedicated channel can be with same process realization.
Method three does not change the message that switch existing realization sub-district yet, by the message that increases newly, in conjunction with the message on the existing Iur interface, finishes the transformation of MBMS channel.
Under the situation that the Iur interface exists, owing to other users' immigration, shift out the sub-district, perhaps add, leave the MBMS business, make the MBMS channel type change.This situation belongs to UE under static (not having switching cell) situation, how to finish the transformation of MBMS channel.The present invention is a head it off, has proposed method four.
Method four has increased the message of an Iur interface newly.By this message, variation has taken place in DRNC notice SRNC MBMS channel type.If the MBMS channel type has become dedicated channel, be responsible for the exclusive data carrying that UE sets up wireless dedicated link and IurMBMS by SRNC.In addition, SRNC also is responsible for notice UE MBMS channel information.If the MBMS channel type has become common signal channel by dedicated channel, DRNC tells SRNC MBMS the information of common signal channel in the message that this increases newly, carries out the preparation again of MBMS channel by SRNC notice UE then.

Method two:
SRNC is after receiving cell update message or measurement report, and decision switches to new sub-district.SRNC is with the MBMS service identification, and MBMS dedicated channel information and public information are included in and tell DRNC in a piece of news, and DRNC adds up the number of users of MBMS again according to the service identification of this MBMS.According to number of users, dedicated channel or common signal channel are set up in decision, and set up corresponding channel according to the channel information that SRNC transmits, after channel is set up successfully, report corresponding common signal channel or dedicated channel parameters to SRNC, SRNC tells UE to carry out the preparation again of MBMS channel by RRC message.
Method three:
SRNC is after receiving cell update message or measurement report, and decision switches to new sub-district.SRNC in this message, comprises the ongoing MBMS service identification of UE to DRNC inquiry MBMS channel type.DRNC adds up the number of users of MBMS again according to the service identification of this MBMS.DRNC is according to the number of users of MBMS business, the type of MBMS channel is set up in decision, and be dedicated channel or common signal channel to the type that SRNC reports the MBMS channel set up, if use dedicated channel, SRNC sets up corresponding dedicated channel and the carrying of Iur exclusive data, if the use common signal channel, SRNC sends out message to DRNC, requires to obtain the information of MBMS common signal channel.And this information is passed through RRC message informing UE.
(2) channel type under the non-moving situation changes
Method four:
Dedicated channel-common signal channel conversion
DRNC statistics MBMS number of users, if surpass certain thresholding, common signal channel is set up in the DRNC decision.
DRNC notifies the information of this common signal channel of SRNC, and carries out the preparation again of channel by SRNC notice UE.
Common signal channel-dedicated channel conversion
DRNC statistics MBMS number of users, if be lower than certain thresholding, dedicated channel is set up in the DRNC decision.Report to SRNC, set up the MBMS dedicated channel by SRNC.And notice UE dedicated channel information.
The statistics of number of users when (3) mobile

The MBMS service identification
The flow process of the whole bag of tricks of the present invention is described below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
Method one:
Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 are that the user switches to a sub-district below the DRNC, and SRNC does not do reorientation, the process that the MBMS channel type changes.In detail this process is described below.
(1) transformation of dedicated channel-dedicated channel or common signal channel
902UE is under the CELL_DCH state, has entered a sub-district below the DRNC, and according to existing standard, SRNC is according to the measurement report of UE, and the reorientation of SRNC is not carried out in decision, carries out cell switch process.SRNC sends Radio Link and sets up request message to DRNC, and on the basis of existing message format, increase a new information element: " MBMS service identification " is used for notifying the DRNC MBMS service identification that this UE is receiving.
903DRNC can know which kind of MBMS business the user has applied for, and make the number of users of corresponding service add 1 according to the MBMS service identification.
If the professional user of first application that 904 these users are these RNC, the data path between DRNC foundation and the core net (hereinafter to be referred as CN).DRNC sends the MBMS business request information to CN, tells the sign of CN end MBMS.Be responsible for initiating the foundation of data path by the CN end.
The 905CN end sends MBMS RAB to DRNC and sets up request or RAB allocation request message.
After 906DRNC sets up the data path success, send MBMS RAB to the CN end and set up response or RAB assignment response message.
907DRNC sends Radio Link to SRNC and sets up response message.This message has increased a new information element on the basis of existing form: the MBMS channel type, and by this information element, the channel type of the MBMS business that use the sub-district at DRNC notice SRNC terminal place.
908SRNC analyzes the MBMS channel type, if use the sub-district at UE place under the DRNC is dedicated channel, then directly carries out for 913 steps.
909SRNC is by analyzing the MBMS channel type, and what know that the sub-district at UE place under the DRNC uses is common signal channel, then the information by public transmission channel resource request message notice DRNC report common signal channel.
910DRNC sends the public transmission channel resource response message to SRNC, by this message, to the parameter of SRNC report MBMS common signal channel.
Sub-district under the 911SRNC is because leaving of this UE makes the number of users of corresponding M BMS business subtract 1.
912SRNC is by RRC message, and physical channel reconfigures request or the MBMS channel reconfigures request message, the information of notice UE MBMS channel.
If 913UE different with the MBMS channel parameter that switches preceding use, then prepares the MBMS channel according to the parameter of MBMS channel again, after the success, returns the message of a success.UE sends the MBMS channel and reconfigures end to SRNC, and report MBMS channel configuration is finished.At this moment, cell switch process finishes.If new MBMS channel is a dedicated channel, the MBMS data send UE by SRNC by DRNC by the Iur interface, if common signal channel, the MBMS data directly are sent to DRNC by SGSN, are sent to the UE end then.
The wireless dedicated link of 914SRNC deletion cell-of-origin.
(2) transformation of common signal channel-common signal channel or dedicated channel
101UE is under the non-CELL _ DCH state, has entered a sub-district below the DRNC, and according to existing standard, this UE will carry out cell updating course.UE at first changes the CELL_FACH state over to, sends cell update message to SRNC then.This message is the same with message format in the existing standard.
102SRNC sends the public transmission channel resource request to DRNC, in existing message format, increases by one " MBMS service identification ", is used for notifying the DRNC MBMS service identification that this UE is receiving.
103DRNC can know which kind of MBMS business the user has applied for, and make the number of users of corresponding service add 1 according to the MBMS service identification.
If the professional user of first application that 104 these users are these RNC, the data path between DRNC foundation and the core net.Tell the sign of CN end MBMS.DRNC sends the MBMS business request information to CN, is responsible for initiating the foundation of data path by the CN end.
The 105CN end sends MBMS RAB to DRNC and sets up request or RAB allocation request message.
After 106DRNC sets up the data path success, send MBMS RAB to the CN end and set up response or RAB assignment response message.
107DRNC sends the public transmission channel resource response to SRNC.This message has increased a new information element on the basis of existing form: the MBMS channel type, and by this information element, the channel type of the MBMS business that use the sub-district at DRNC notice SRNC terminal place.
108SRNC analyzes the MBMS channel type ", if use the sub-district at UE place under the DRNC is common signal channel, then directly carried out for 113 steps.
109SRNC is by analyzing the MBMS channel type, and what know that the sub-district at UE place under the DRNC uses is dedicated channel, then notifies DRNC to set up point-to-point MBMS channel, sets up notice DRNC dedicated channel information in the request at Radio Link.
Dedicated wireless link between 110DRNC foundation and the base station.
111 set up link success after, DRNC returns the message of a success of SRNC.
112 set up the data link carrying between SRNC and the DRNC, are used for transmitting the MBMS data.
Sub-district under the 113SRNC is because leaving of this UE makes the number of users of corresponding M BMS business subtract 1.
114SRNC notifies UE MBMS the information of channel by the cell update acknowledge message.
If 115UE different with the MBMS channel parameter that switches preceding use, then prepares the MBMS channel according to the parameter of MBMS channel again, and after the success, return the message of a success: the MBMS channel reconfigures response.At this moment, cell updating course finishes.If new MBMS channel is special
Use channel, the MBMS data send UE by SRNC by DRNC by the Iur interface, if
Common signal channel, the MBMS data directly are sent to DRNC by SGSN, are sent to the UE end then.
Method two:
Fig. 3 is that the user switches to a sub-district below the DRNC, and the MBMS channel type that causes is sent out into change
The process of changing.In detail this process is described below.
Transition process between common signal channel and the dedicated channel
Cell update message or measurement report that 201SRNC sends according to UE, the reorientation of SRNC is not carried out in decision, switches or cell updating course and carry out the sub-district.On the basis that does not influence existing handoff procedure, the message and the process that are specifically designed to the MBMS channel switch have been increased.SRNC sends the MBMS channel to DRNC and sets up request message, this message mainly comprises the content of three aspects, the one, and the sign of MBMS business is so that DRNC statistics user's process, the 2nd, comprise the information of MBMS dedicated channel, the 3rd, comprise the information of MBMS common signal channel.Be to use common signal channel or dedicated channel by the DRNC decision.
202DRNC can know which kind of MBMS business the user has applied for, and make the number of users of corresponding service add 1 according to the MBMS service identification.
If the professional user of first application that 203 these users are these RNC, the data path between DRNC foundation and the core net.DRNC sends the MBMS business request information to CN, tells the sign of CN end MBMS.Be responsible for initiating the foundation of data path by the CN end.
The 204CN end sends MBMS RAB to DRNC and sets up request or RAB allocation request message.
After 205DRNC sets up the data path success, send MBMS RAB to the CN end and set up response or RAB assignment response message.
206DRNC is according to the number of users of MBMS business in the sub-district, and dedicated channel or common signal channel are set up in decision, set up successfully after, if MBMS uses dedicated channel, the information of notice SRNC dedicated channel if use common signal channel, is then notified the information of SRNC common signal channel.
207SRNC analyzes the MBMS channel type, if use the sub-district at UE place under the DRNC is common signal channel, then directly carries out for 209 steps.
208SRNC is by analyzing the MBMS channel type, and what know that the sub-district at UE place under the DRNC uses is dedicated channel, then sets up the data link carrying between SRNC and the DRNC, is used for transmitting the MBMS data.
Sub-district under the 209SRNC is because leaving of this UE makes the number of users of corresponding M BMS business subtract 1.
210SRNC is by RRC message, and cell update acknowledge message or other RRC message are notified UE MBMS the information of channel.
If 211UE different with the MBMS channel parameter that switches preceding use, then prepares the MBMS channel according to the parameter of MBMS channel again, after the success, returns the message of a success.If new MBMS channel is a dedicated channel, the MBMS data send UE by SRNC by DRNC by the Iur interface, if common signal channel, the MBMS data directly are sent to DRNC by SGSN, are sent to the UE end then.
Method three:
Fig. 4 is that the user switches to a sub-district below the DRNC, and the MBMS channel type that causes is sent out into the process of variation.In detail this process is described below.
Transition process between common signal channel and the dedicated channel
401UE when entering another sub-district, sends different message report to SRNC according to the state difference at its place.
402SRNC knows that this user is receiving the MBMS business, the channel situation of this MBMS business of inquiry DRNC, comprise the MBMS service identification in this message, DRNC adds up user's number again according to this service identification, decides and supports dedicated channel or support common signal channel.
The 403DRNC channel type that it provides support for this MBMS business to the SRNC report.
404SRNC sends different message and sets up common signal channel or dedicated channel according to the difference that DRNC supports channel type.If dedicated channel sends Radio Link and sets up request message; If common signal channel then sends the public transmission channel resource request message.
Number of users that should business among the 405DRNC adds 1.
If this user of 406-408 is first user who requires this MBMS business, DRNC requires to add this MBMS multicast group, and sets up corresponding RAB.
If 409 SRNC indication DRNC sets up dedicated channel, DRNC will set up Radio Link in the sub-district at this UE place so.
410DRNC tells SRNC with the information of foundation Radio Link or common signal channel.
If 411 MBMS use dedicated channel, then the user plane of Iur interface will be set up.
The number of users of this sub-district, UE place subtracts 1 among the 412SRNC.
413SRNC indication UE carries out reconfiguring of physical channel, sends different message according to the residing state difference of UE.
414UE finishes to reconfiguring successfully of SRNC report MBMS channel.
Method four:
Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 are that the user passes through the Iur interface and links to each other with SRNC, do not move to other sub-districts.But, cause the process that the MBMS channel type changes because moving of other users perhaps newly adds business.In detail this process is described below.
(1) transformation of dedicated channel-common signal channel
501 join this MBMS service groups and move into this sub-district as new user, and DRNC finds that number of users surpasses certain thresholding, and the decision channel type is changed into common signal channel.
502DRNC sets up common signal channel in the sub-district at UE place for this MBMS business.
503DRNC notifies the change of SRNC channel type with MBMS channel information Indication message, and carries the common channel information of having set up in this message.
504-505SRNC reconfigures the MBMS channel of UE, and channel type changes common signal channel into from dedicated channel.
506-508SRNC notice DRNC deletion was the dedicated channel of this MBMS business configuration originally.DRNC deletes the dedicated channel resource among its Node B.
509 discharge the transmission bearer of the user plane of Iur interface.
(2) transformation of common signal channel-dedicated channel
601 leave this MBMS service groups as the user, perhaps shift out this sub-district, and DRNC finds that number of users is lower than certain thresholding, and the decision channel type is changed into dedicated channel.
602DRNC notifies the change of SRNC channel type with MBMS channel information Indication message.
603-605SRNC indication DRNC sets up dedicated channel for this user's MBMS business, and DRNC sets up corresponding dedicated wireless link in its Node B.
Set up the user-plane transmissions carrying of Iur interface between 606SRNC and the DRNC.
607-608SRNC indication UE reconfigures the MBMS Traffic Channel.
