Description

無線資源搶占方法、無線通訊系統以及無線接 入節點 Wireless resource preemption method, wireless communication system, and wireless connection Ingress node

本揭露說明書主要係有關於一無線資源搶占技術,特別係有關於藉由判斷具有低優先權位階之用戶承載是否可連接到其他異質網路,以決定所要搶占之用戶承載之無線資源搶占技術。 The disclosure is mainly related to a radio resource preemption technology, in particular to a radio resource preemption technique for determining whether a user bearer with a low priority level can be connected to other heterogeneous networks to determine the user bearer to be preempted.

隨著行動通訊網路持續不斷的演進,如何充分地使用頻譜資源,以及達成不同無線技術之間的互通性,以使得未來的無線網路環境更具多元性,將是行動通訊網路發展的重點項目。 As the mobile communication network continues to evolve, how to fully use spectrum resources and achieve interoperability between different wireless technologies to make the future wireless network environment more diverse will be the key project of mobile communication network development. .

為了讓長期演進技術(Long Term Evolution,LTE)能夠運作在免執照頻段(Unlicensed band)上,未授權LTE(LTE-U)、授權輔助式存取(Licensed Assisted Access,LAA)、MulteFire等相關技術已日漸成熟,並已在一些國家正式啟用。此外,運作在2.3/3.5GHz上的特許共享存取(Licensed Shared Access,LSA)/公民無線寬頻服務(Citizens Broadband Radio Service,CBRS)共享頻譜的概念也可應用於LTE網路中。 In order to enable Long Term Evolution (LTE) to operate in the Unlicensed Band, LTE-U, Licensed Assisted Access (LAA), MulteFire and other related technologies are not authorized. It has matured and has been officially launched in some countries. In addition, the concept of shared spectrum access (Licensed Shared Access (LSA)/Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) shared spectrum operating at 2.3/3.5 GHz can also be applied to LTE networks.

隨著越來越多終端裝置連上網路,無線資源將有可能會被用盡。因此,根據3GPP之規範,無線接入節點(Radio access node)可根據ARP(Allocation and Retention Priority)參數,執行搶占程序,以釋放較低優先權的用戶承載(UE bearer)的無線資源,給較高優先權的用戶承載使用。 As more and more terminal devices connect to the Internet, wireless resources may be exhausted. Therefore, according to the 3GPP standard, a radio access node may perform a preemption procedure according to an ARP (Allocation and Retention Priority) parameter to release a radio resource of a lower priority user bearer (UE bearer). High priority users are used for hosting.

在目前現有機制下,當無線接入節點因為無線資源不足而執行搶占程序時,會選定一個低優先權的用戶承載並釋放其無線資源,以為高優先權用戶承載提供服務。然而,資源被搶占之低優先權的用戶有可能會因為無法連上其他無線異質網路而無法繼續存取網際網路(Internet)。因而,造成服務品質下降。 Under the current existing mechanism, when a wireless access node performs a preemption procedure due to insufficient radio resources, a low priority user bearer is selected and its radio resources are released to provide services for high priority user bearers.

Node 110. In this disclosure In the embodiment of the disclosure, the measurement report of each user equipment may include information related to other heterogeneous networks. The first wireless access node 110 can know whether the user equipment is located under the coverage of other heterogeneous networks and related information of the user equipment and other heterogeneous networks according to the measurement report provided by the user equipment. For example, the first wireless access node 110 can know that the user equipment 120-2 is also provided by the second wireless access node 130 according to the measurement report provided by the user equipment 120-2 (for example: Under the coverage of the EUTRA network, the cell identification (Cell ID) of the user equipment 120-2 in the second network and the Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) are known. The first wireless access node 110 can know that the user equipment 120-3 is also provided by the third wireless access node 140 on the third network (eg, WLAN network) according to the measurement report provided by the user equipment 120-3. Under the coverage, the Service Set Identifier (SSID) of the user equipment 120-3 in the third network and the Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) can be known.

根據本揭露之實施例,根據分配和保留優先權(Allocation and Retention Priority,ARP),不同用戶承載(UE bearer)會具有不同優先權。分配和保留優先權係定義於3GPP標準中,且其包含於服務品質(Quality of Service,QoS)參數中。分配和保留優先權係用來定義不同用戶承載之優先權,且其包含了優先權位階(Priority Level)、搶占能力(Pre-emption capability)以及被搶占能力(Pre-emption vulnerability)三個參數。 According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, different bearers (UE bearers) may have different priorities according to Allocation and Retention Priority (ARP). The allocation and retention priorities are defined in the 3GPP standard and are included in the Quality of Service (QoS) parameters. The allocation and retention priorities are used to define the priorities of different user bearers, and they include three parameters: Priority Level, Pre-emption capability, and Pre-emption vulnerability.

優先權位階定義了從高優先權到低優先權之優 先權位階0~15。以第1圖為例,可以假設用戶設備120-1之用戶承載所對應之優先權位階為6、用戶設備120-2之用戶承載對應之優先權位階為9、用戶設備120-3之用戶承載對應之優先權位階為10,以及用戶設備120-4之用戶承載對應之優先權位階為11。搶占能力則係用於判斷是否應搶占具有較低優先權位階的用戶承載,以釋放出所需的資源。以第1圖為例,當用戶設備120-1之用戶承載之搶占能力設為TRUE時,即表示用戶設備120-1應搶占具有較低優先權位階的用戶承載。被搶占能力則係用以判斷用戶承載是否易於被具有較高優先權位階且具有搶占能力的用戶承載搶占。以第1圖為例,當用戶設備120-2之用戶承載之被搶占能力設為TRUE時,即表示用戶設備120-2容易被具有較高優先權位階且具有搶占能力的用戶承載搶占。 The priority level defines the superiority from high priority to low priority. The weight level is 0~15. As shown in FIG. 1 , it can be assumed that the priority level corresponding to the user bearer of the user equipment 120-1 is 6, the priority level of the user bearer of the user equipment 120-2 is 9, and the user equipment of the user equipment 120-3 is carried. The corresponding priority level is 10, and the priority level of the user bearer corresponding to the user equipment 120-4 is 11. The preemption capability is used to determine whether a user bearer with a lower priority level should be preempted to release the required resources. Taking the first picture as an example, when the preemption capability of the user equipment of the user equipment 120-1 is set to TRUE, it means that the user equipment 120-1 should preempt the user bearer with the lower priority level. The preemptive capability is used to determine whether the user bearer is easily preempted by a user with a higher priority level and having preemptive capability. As shown in FIG. 1 , when the preemption capability of the user equipment of the user equipment 120-2 is set to TRUE, it indicates that the user equipment 120-2 is easily preempted by a user with a higher priority level and having preemptive capability.

在傳統之搶占技術中,無線接入節點(例如:無線接入節點110)會根據分配和保留優先權參數,來釋放具有低優先權位階之用戶承載之無限資源,給具有較高優先權位階之用戶承載使用。然而,在本揭露之實施例中,無線接入節點更會考慮具有較低優先權位階之用戶承載所應之用戶設備,是否在至少一其他異質網路的覆蓋範圍下,以決定是否進行搶占。底下之實施例將會有更詳細之說明。 In the conventional preemption technique, a wireless access node (for example, the wireless access node 110) releases an unlimited resource carried by a user with a low priority level according to an allocation and retention priority parameter, and gives a higher priority level. User hosting is used. However, in the embodiment of the disclosure, the wireless access node further considers whether the user equipment of the user with the lower priority level is under the coverage of at least one other heterogeneous network to determine whether to preempt. . The examples below will be described in more detail.

根據本揭露一些實施例,本揭露所述之「搶占程序被觸發」係表示,當一具有高優先權位階之用戶設備(例如:用戶設備120-1)欲在第一網路建立無線承載(radio bearer),且第一網路之無線資源不足時,搶占程序就會被觸發,以提供 無線資源給高優先權位階之用戶設備。根據本揭露另一些實施例,本揭露所述之「搶占程序被觸發」係表示,當在第一網路之一具有高優先權位階之用戶設備(例如:用戶設備120-1)向第一無線接入節點110要求更多無線資源,且第一網路之無線資源不足時,搶占程序就會被觸發,以提供更多的無線資源給高優先權位階之用戶設備。 According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the "preemption program is triggered" in the disclosure indicates that when a user equipment having a high priority level (for example, user equipment 120-1) wants to establish a radio bearer in the first network ( Radio bearer), and when the wireless resources of the first network are insufficient, the preemption program will be triggered to provide The radio resource is given to the user equipment of the high priority level. According to other embodiments of the present disclosure, the "preemption program is triggered" according to the disclosure means that when a user equipment (eg, user equipment 120-1) having a high priority level in one of the first networks is directed to the first When the wireless access node 110 requires more radio resources, and the radio resources of the first network are insufficient, the preemption procedure is triggered to provide more radio resources to the user equipment of the high priority level.

根據本揭露之一實施例,如第1圖所示,當搶占程序被觸發時(例如:具有高優先權位階之用戶設備120-1欲在第一網路建立無線承載,且第一網路之無線資源不足),第一無線接入節點110會先判斷對應具有較低優先權位階之用戶承載之用戶設備120-2、120-3以及120-4是否在其他異質網路的覆蓋範圍下。接著,第一無線接入節點110會從對應在其他異質網路的覆蓋範圍下之用戶設備120-2和120-3之用戶承載中,選取一者作為搶占之對象。雖然用戶設備120-4具有最低之優先權位階,但由於其並無在其他異質網路之覆蓋範圍,因此在選取具有較低優先權位階之用戶承載執行搶占時,第一無線接入節點110會先將其排除在外。 According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1, when the preemption program is triggered (for example, the user equipment 120-1 having a high priority level wants to establish a radio bearer in the first network, and the first network The wireless access node 110 first determines whether the user equipments 120-2, 120-3, and 120-4 corresponding to the users with lower priority levels are under the coverage of other heterogeneous networks. . Then, the first wireless access node 110 selects one of the user bearers corresponding to the user equipments 120-2 and 120-3 under the coverage of other heterogeneous networks as the object of preemption. Although the user equipment 120-4 has the lowest priority level, since it does not have coverage in other heterogeneous networks, the first wireless access node 110 is selected when a user bearer with a lower priority level is selected to perform preemption. Will be excluded first.

根據本揭露之一些實施例,無線接入節點110更會先選取在第一網路中具有最低優先權位階之複數用戶承載作為搶占程序時之複數候選用戶承載。舉例來說,若在第一網路之用戶承載之最低優先權位階為11,無線接入節點110會先選取在第一網路中具有最低優先權位階11之複數用戶承載作為搶占程序時之複數候選用戶承載。 According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the wireless access node 110 first selects a plurality of user bearers having the lowest priority level in the first network as the plurality of candidate user bearers when the preemption program is used. For example, if the lowest priority level of the user bearer in the first network is 11, the wireless access node 110 first selects the plurality of user bearers having the lowest priority level 11 in the first network as the preemption procedure. Multiple candidate user bearers.

根據本揭露之另一些實施例,無線接入節點110 更會先選取在第一網路中對應一最低優先權範圍之用戶承載作為搶占程序時之複數候選用戶承載。舉例來說,若最低優先權範圍係對應優先權位階10~15,無線接入節點110會先選取在第一網路中對應優先權位階10~15之用戶承載作為搶占程序時之複數候選用戶承載。 According to further embodiments of the present disclosure, the wireless access node 110 In addition, the user bearer corresponding to a lowest priority range in the first network is selected as the candidate candidate user bearer when the preemption program is used. For example, if the lowest priority range is the corresponding priority level 10~15, the wireless access node 110 first selects the user bearer of the corresponding priority level 10~15 in the first network as the candidate candidate when the preemption program is used. Hosted.

根據本揭露之一實施例,當搶占程序被觸發時(例如:具有高優先權位階之用戶設備120-1欲在第一網路建立無線承載,且第一網路之無線資源不足),第一無線接入節點110會判斷每一候選用戶承載對應之用戶設備是否在其他異質網路的覆蓋範圍下。接著,第一無線接入節點110會從對應有其他異質網路的覆蓋範圍下之用戶設備之用戶承載中,選取一者作為搶占之對象。 According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the preemption program is triggered (for example, the user equipment 120-1 having a high priority level wants to establish a radio bearer in the first network, and the radio resources of the first network are insufficient), A wireless access node 110 determines whether each candidate user bears a corresponding user equipment under the coverage of other heterogeneous networks. Then, the first wireless access node 110 selects one of the user bearers of the user equipment corresponding to the coverage of other heterogeneous networks as the object of preemption.

根據本揭露之一實施例,在對應有其他異質網路的覆蓋範圍下之用戶設備之候選用戶承載中,第一無線接入節點110更會判斷每一可連接到第二網路(例如:小細胞提供之EUTRA網路)之用戶設備和第二網路之一第一訊號強度(例如:RSRP)是否大於一第一臨界值(例如:-90dBm,但本揭露不以此為限)。接著,第一無線接入節點110會從對應第一訊號強度大於第一臨界值之用戶設備之候選用戶承載中,選取一者作為搶占的對象。 According to an embodiment of the disclosure, in the candidate user bearer of the user equipment corresponding to the coverage of the other heterogeneous network, the first radio access node 110 further determines that each of the connectable to the second network (for example: Whether the first signal strength (for example, RSRP) of the user equipment of the EUTRA network provided by the small cell and the second network is greater than a first threshold (for example: -90 dBm, but the disclosure is not limited thereto). Then, the first radio access node 110 selects one of the candidate user bearers of the user equipment corresponding to the first signal strength greater than the first threshold as the preemption object.

若每一可連接到第二網路(例如:小細胞提供之EUTRA網路)之用戶設備和第二網路之第一訊號強度(例如:RSRP)都未大於一第一臨界值,第一無線接入節點110更會判斷每一可連接到第三網路(例如:Wi-Fi接取點提供之WLAN 網路)之用戶設備和第三網路之一第二訊號強度(例如:RSSI)是否大於一第二臨界值(例如:-70dBm,但本揭露不以此為限)。接著,第一無線接入節點110會從對應第二訊號強度大於第二臨界值之用戶設備之候選用戶承載中,選取一者作為搶占的對象。若每一可連接到第三網路(例如:Wi-Fi接取點提供之WLAN網路)之用戶設備和第三網路之第二訊號強度(例如:RSSI)都未大於第二臨界值,第一無線接入節點110會隨機從複數候選用戶承載中,選取一者作為搶占的對象。 If the first signal strength (eg, RSRP) of each of the user equipment and the second network connectable to the second network (eg, the EUTRA network provided by the small cell) is not greater than a first threshold, the first The wireless access node 110 further determines that each can connect to the third network (for example, the WLAN provided by the Wi-Fi access point). Whether the second signal strength (for example, RSSI) of the user equipment of the network and the third network is greater than a second threshold (for example: -70 dBm, but the disclosure is not limited thereto). Then, the first radio access node 110 selects one of the candidate user bearers of the user equipment corresponding to the second signal strength greater than the second threshold as the preemption object. If the second signal strength (for example, RSSI) of each user equipment and the third network connectable to the third network (for example, the WLAN network provided by the Wi-Fi access point) is not greater than the second threshold The first radio access node 110 randomly selects one of the plurality of candidate user bearers as the preemption object.

以表1(如下所示)為例,對應候選用戶承載之用戶設備之小區無線網路臨時標識(Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier,C-RNTI)為0001、0002、0003以及0004。根據表1所示,用戶設備0002和0004係在小細胞提供之EUTRA網路之覆蓋範圍中,以及用戶設備0003和0004係在Wi-Fi接取點提供之WLAN網路之覆蓋範圍中。此外,由於用戶設備0001並無在其他異質網路之覆蓋範圍中,因此,因此當第一無線接入節點110在選取具有較低優先權位階之用戶承載執行搶占時,第一無線接入節點110會先將用戶設備0001排除在外。根據上述實施例,第一無線接入節點110會先判斷每一可連接到第二網路(小細胞提供之EUTRA網路)之用戶設備和第二網路之一第一訊號強度(RSRP)是否大於一第一臨界值(例如:-90dBm)。當第一無線接入節點110在判斷可連接到第二網路之用戶設備0002和0004和第二網路之RSRP是否大於第一臨界值時,由於只有用戶設備0002之RSRP大於-90dBm,因此第一無線接入節點110就會選取用戶 設備0002之用戶承載作為搶占的對象。 For example, the Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier (C-RNTI) of the user equipment carried by the candidate user is 0001, 0002, 0003, and 0004. According to Table 1, user equipments 0002 and 0004 are in the coverage of the EUTRA network provided by the small cells, and user equipments 0003 and 0004 are in the coverage of the WLAN network provided by the Wi-Fi access point. In addition, since the user equipment 0001 is not in the coverage of other heterogeneous networks, when the first radio access node 110 selects a user bearer with a lower priority level to perform preemption, the first radio access node 110 will first exclude user equipment 0001. According to the above embodiment, the first wireless access node 110 first determines each of the user equipment and the second network first signal strength (RSRP) connectable to the second network (the EUTRA network provided by the small cell). Whether it is greater than a first critical value (for example: -90dBm). When the first radio access node 110 determines whether the RSRPs of the user equipments 0002 and 0004 connectable to the second network and the second network are greater than the first threshold, since only the RSRP of the user equipment 0002 is greater than -90 dBm, The first wireless access node 110 selects the user The user of device 0002 is hosted as a preemption object.

根據本揭露之一實施例,當候選用戶承載之一者被執行搶占時,第一無線接入節點110會協助被執行搶占之候選用戶承載之用戶設備連線到其對應之異質網路。以第1圖為例,若第一無線接入節點110選取用戶設備120-2之用戶承載被作為搶占的對象時,第一無線接入節點110就會協助用戶設備120-2備連線到第二無線接入節點130提供之第二網路。 According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when one of the candidate user bearers is subjected to preemption, the first wireless access node 110 may assist the user equipment carried by the preempted candidate user to connect to its corresponding heterogeneous network. Taking the first picture as an example, if the first radio access node 110 selects the user bearer of the user equipment 120-2 as the preemption object, the first radio access node 110 assists the user equipment 120-2 to connect to the device. The second network provided by the second wireless access node 130.

As shown in FIG. 4A-4B, in step S351, the wireless access node determines each connectable according to a measurement report of the user equipment connectable to a second network (for example, the EUTRA network provided by the small cell). To the second Whether a first signal strength (for example, RSRP) between the user equipment of the network and the second network is greater than a first threshold. If there is a user equipment whose first signal strength is greater than the first threshold, step S352 is performed. In step S352, the wireless access node selects one from the user equipment whose first signal strength is greater than the first threshold to perform preemption. When the first signal strength between each user equipment connectable to the second network and the second network is not greater than the first threshold, step S353 is performed.

In step S354, the wireless access node selects one from the user equipment whose second signal strength is greater than the second threshold to perform preemption. If the strength of the second signal between the user equipment connectable to the third network and the third network is not greater than the second threshold, step S355 is performed. In step S355, the radio access node selects one of all candidate user bearers to perform preemption.

在步驟S356,無線接入節點會協助對應被執行搶占之候選承載之用戶設備,連線到其對應之異質網路。 In step S356, the wireless access node assists the user equipment corresponding to the candidate bearer that is performing the preemption to connect to its corresponding heterogeneous network.

第5圖係根據本揭露之一實施例所述之無線資源搶占方法之流程圖。此無線資源搶占方法適用於一無線接入節點(例如:無線接入節點110)。如第5圖所示,在步驟S510,無線接入節點110會接收在一第一網路之複數用戶設備提供之測量報告,其中第一網路係由無線接入節點110所提供。在步驟S520,無線接入節點110會根據每一用戶設備對應之 用戶承載之優先權位階,從所有用戶承載中,選取複數候選用戶承載。在步驟S530,當一搶占程序被觸發時,無線接入節點110會判斷每一候選用戶承載所對應之用戶設備是否可連接到其他異質網路,並判斷是否存在可連接到其他異質網路的用戶設備。若每一候選用戶承載所對應之用戶設備都無法連接到其他異質網路時,進行步驟S540。在步驟S540,無線接入節點110會從所有候選用戶承載選取一者執行搶占。若候選用戶承載所對應之用戶設備之一或多者可連接到其他異質網路時,進行步驟S550。在步驟S550,無線接入節點110會根據可連接到其他異質網路之用戶設備之測量報告,判斷是否對對應可連接到其他異質網路之用戶設備之候選用戶承載之一者執行搶占。 FIG. 5 is a flowchart of a method for preempting a radio resource according to an embodiment of the disclosure. This radio resource preemption method is applicable to a radio access node (e.g., radio access node 110). As shown in FIG. 5, in step S510, the wireless access node 110 receives a measurement report provided by a plurality of user equipments in a first network, wherein the first network is provided by the wireless access node 110. In step S520, the wireless access node 110 corresponds to each user equipment. The priority level of the user bearer, and from all user bearers, multiple candidate user bearers are selected. In step S530, when a preemption procedure is triggered, the wireless access node 110 determines whether the user equipment corresponding to each candidate user bearer can connect to other heterogeneous networks, and determines whether there is a connection to other heterogeneous networks. User equipment. If the user equipment corresponding to each candidate user bearer cannot connect to other heterogeneous networks, step S540 is performed. In step S540, the radio access node 110 selects one of all candidate user bearers to perform preemption. If one or more of the user equipments corresponding to the candidate user bearers can be connected to other heterogeneous networks, step S550 is performed. In step S550, the wireless access node 110 determines whether to perform preemption on one of the candidate user bearers corresponding to the user equipment connectable to the other heterogeneous network according to the measurement report of the user equipment connectable to the other heterogeneous network.

在傳統之搶占機制中,無線接入節點(例如:無線接入節點110)僅會根據分配和保留優先權參數,來釋放具有低優先權位階之用戶承載之無線資源,給具有較高優先權位階之用戶承載使用。然而,在本揭露之所提出之無線資源搶占方法,無線接入節點更會考慮具有較低優先權位階之用戶承載所應之用戶設備,是否在至少一其他異質網路的覆蓋範圍下,以決定是否進行搶占。因而,可避免資源被搶占之低優先權的用戶因為無法連上其他無線異質網路而無法繼續存取網際網路。 In the traditional preemption mechanism, the radio access node (for example, the radio access node 110) only releases the radio resources carried by the user with the low priority level according to the allocation and retention priority parameters, and gives the higher priority. The user of the level is used by the bearer. However, in the wireless resource preemption method proposed by the present disclosure, the wireless access node further considers whether the user equipment with the user with the lower priority level is in the coverage of at least one other heterogeneous network. Decide whether to preempt. Therefore, users with low priority who can avoid resource preemption cannot continue to access the Internet because they cannot connect to other wireless heterogeneous networks.
