Description

分组数据发送方法、 基站和终端
技术领域
本发明涉及通信技术领域, 具体涉及分组数据发送方法、 基站和终端。 背景技术
多跳中继是一种使网络在没有固定接入点条件下运行的手段,最早在自组 织(adhoc )网络中得到研究和应用。 adhoc网络没有固定的基础设施, 也没有 固定的路由器, 所有节点都是移动的, 并且所有节点都能以任意方式动态地保 持与其他节点的联系。 网络中所有节点的地位平等, 无需设置任何的中心控制 节点。 网络中的节点不仅具有普通移动终端所需的功能, 而且具有报文转发能 力。 在这种环境中, 由于终端的无线覆盖范围的有限性, 两个无法直接进行通 信的用户终端可以借助于其他节点进行分组转发, 也即多跳通信。 近几年来, 将多跳中继技术运用到传统的蜂窝(cell )网络中, 组建新型的蜂窝多跳网络, 也已成为无线通信中新的研究热点。在蜂窝多跳网中,移动台能够通过一个或 多个中继节点连接到对应的蜂窝小区基站。 中继节点的使用减小了路径损耗, 改善了每条传输链路的通信质量,从而大大提高了整个蜂窝小区的容量和覆盖 范围。在蜂窝多跳网中,寻找合适的中继节点对于提高整个系统的性能是非常 关键的, 这就需要有效的路由算法。
现有的一种分组数据发送方法是这样的: 考虑蜂窝多跳网以基站 (BS: Base Station )为中心的特点,将传统的分布式路由方式改为基站统一为各节点 提供路由的集中处理方式。 基站维护所有终端 (MS: Mobile Station )之间的 链路状态, 并根据维护的链路状态为终端的通信集中选择路径。 采用集中的处 理方式后,基站能够通过处理和维护路由过程中所得到的信息, 逐步获取小区 的拓朴结构。
同时考虑 2跳接入蜂窝的情况, 当 MS与基站的链路质量恶化, 需要进行 中继时, 先发出中继请求给 BS, 要求 BS提供一个多跳路由。 如果 BS找不到 路径, MS就向临近节点广播中继请求寻路信号, 中间节点在收到中继请求后, 返回信令给基站。基站据此可以获得第一跳链路的质量, 并测量得到第二跳链 路质量。这样每收到一个中间节点发出的中继请求响应,基站都更新一次自己 的信道质量矩阵。 在更新完信道质量矩阵后, 基站再次运行寻路算法, 此时基 站已经获取了与 MS有关的全部信道信息,从而选出中继节点, 并将选出的中 继节点反馈给 MS, 使 MS可以通过中继节点进行分组数据发送。
在对现有技术的研究中, 发明人发现: 使用现有的分组数据发送方法时, 每次分组中继分发都需进行中继请求, 并且所有的链路处理都由基站进行,使 基站的资源开销很大, 并且通信复杂度高。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清 楚、 完整地描述, 显然, 所描述的实施例仅仅是本发明一部分实施例, 而不是 全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例, 本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造 性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例, 都属于本发明保护的范围。
先介绍本发明实施例涉及的蜂窝 adhoc 网络, 本发明实施例提供的蜂窝 adhoc网络的架构如图 1所示:
小区内的不同扇区簇形成了小区内虚拟簇 1011 , 小区内虚拟簇的簇头进 行扇区间协作, 以便终端灵活接入。
相邻小区的扇区簇组成了小区间虚拟簇 1021 , 小区间虚拟簇的簇头进行 小区间协作, 以便簇间通信和混合接入及协作接入时的小区间负载平衡。
小区内虚拟簇根据距离基站的距离分成了混合接入区 1012, 簇头区 1013 和直接接入区 1014, 其中混合接入区离基站最远, 直接接入区离基站最近; 如果终端处于直接接入区和簇头区, 则终端的接入状态可以是直接接入。如果 终端处于混合接入区, 则终端可以蜂窝中继接入基站, 此时终端的接入状态可 以为协作接入; 或者终端可以通过 adhoc中继接入基站, 此时终端的接入状态 可以为混合接入。 如果终端收不到基站和簇头的信息, 则终端的接入状态为 "adhoc"。 不同接入区的终端的接入状态可以如表 1所示。
表 1
Figure imgf000007_0001
小区间虚拟簇根据距离该小区间虚拟簇的中心的距离分成了混合接入区
1022, 簇头区 1023和直接接入区 1024, 其中混合接入区离该小区间虚拟簇的 中心最远, 直接接入区离该小区间虚拟簇的中心最近。 为了实现移动终端 adhoc方式的可运营和可管理,本发明实施例的簇头选 择和分簇由基站发起,簇头的选择和分簇可以是周期性地进行, 也可以在事件 的触发下进行, 例如可以在基站接收了终端发送的中继请求后进行。在本发明 的一个实施例中, 簇头选择和分簇可以按照如下流程进行:
基站在本小区范围内广播簇头选择请求,携带基站的位置信息, 小区半径 R, 小区利用率 U和簇头阈值 C等参数。接收到簇头选择请求的终端计算自身 与基站之间的距离 L。 如果 L大于阈值 1 (在本发明的一个实施例中阈值 1可 以为 R/2 ) 并小于阈值 2 (在本发明的一个实施例中阈值 2可以为 3R/4 ), 则 表明终端处于簇头区, 终端将接入状态 S设置为直接接入; 否则, 表明终端处 于直接接入区或混合接入区, 此时可以先将终端接入状态 S设置为直接接入, 后续再由终端根据簇头公告进行更新。
处于簇头区的终端根据簇头选择请求信息估计自身与基站之间链路的质 量,终端与基站之间链路的质量可以是路径损耗 PLSS; 终端再根据自身的剩余 能量信息 NRest, 判断是否满足簇头选择的要求。 在本发明的一个实施例中, 如果某个终端的 P!^。ss/NRest<C说明该终端满足簇头选择的要求, 则终端发送簇 头公告, 簇头公告信息包括该终端的资源信息和该终端所处小区的利用率 U, 其中终端的资源信息包括该终端的剩余能量以及该终端与基站之间的路径损 耗, 发送的簇头公告可以是蜂窝簇头公告和 adhoc簇头公告。
接收到簇头公告的终端进行接入状态和簇头表的更新:
如果终端的默认接入状态 S为" adhoc" , 则能接收到蜂窝簇头公告的终端 将 S更新为"协作接入"; 仅能接收到 adhoc簇头公告的终端将 S更新为 "混合 接入"。
如果终端的默认接入状态 S为"直接接入",则能接收到蜂窝簇头公告并且 该终端与基站之间距离 L大于阈值 2, 该终端将 S更新为 "协作接入"。
在本发明的一个实施例中, 终端维护的簇头表可以如表 2所示。
表 2 簇头 ID 小区利用率 剩余能量 路损 终端 4 U1 NRestCell4 PLossCell4
Rest4 PL。SS4 终端 5 U1 NRestCell5 PLossCell5
Rest5 PLOSS5 终端 12 U2 NRestCelll2 PLossCelll2
Restl2 PL。SS12
表 2中, PL。ssCell为终端蜂窝接口的与簇头之间的链路路损, NRestcdl为蜂窝 接口的能量, PL。ss为终端 adhoc接口与簇头之间的链路路损, NRest为 adhoc接 口的能量。 当 PLssCell无穷大或 NRestCell为零时, 表明 cell接口不可用。
在本发明的一个实施例中, cell接口和 adhoc接口能量统一管理, 此时 NRestceU=NRest
终端在更新完接入状态和簇头表后, 进行簇头公告确认, 在簇头公告确认 中携带终端的资源信息和接入状态; 其中, 终端的资源信息可以包括终端的剩 余能量、 以及终端与基站的链路的路损, 具体可以包括终端的 cell接口的剩余 能量以及 cell接口与基站的链路的路损, 终端的 adhoc接口的剩余能量以及 adhoc接口与基站的链路的路损。
簇头收到来自终端的簇头公告确认后,根据簇头公告确认携带的信息更新 簇头维护的虚拟簇表。 在本发明的一个实施例中, 簇头维护的虚拟簇表如表 3 所示。
表 3
Figure imgf000009_0001
簇头在更新了虚拟簇头表后, 进行簇头选择响应,簇头选择响应可以携带 簇头的资源信息和该簇头维护的虚拟簇表信息;簇头的资源信息可以包括簇头 的剩余能量和簇头与基站之间链路的路损。 为了减少干扰和便于基站的管理, 在本发明的一个实施例中, 簇头与基站之间的通信仅使用 cell接口, 此时簇头 的资源信息具体可以是簇头的 cell接口的剩余能量以及 cell接口与基站之间链 路的路损。
基站接收到来自簇头的簇头选择响应后,根据簇头选择响应携带的信息更 新终端状态表。在本发明的一个簇头与基站之间的通信仅使用 cell接口的实施 例中, 基站维护的终端状态表如表 4所示。
表 4
Figure imgf000010_0001
基站对簇头上 ·^艮的虚拟簇表信息进行处理,对同一终端的簇头形成该终端 的簇头列表信息。使基站仅需要保存簇头的剩余能量信息,基于分簇分区的虚 拟簇头机制, 簇头充当信令信息汇聚点, 可以使基站的开销大大减少, 并且信 令汇聚点并非是单一的, 还可以增加可靠性。
如下介绍本发明实施例提供的分组数据发送方法,图 2描述了分组数据发 送方法实施例一的流程, 该实施例描述的是源终端的处理流程, 包括:
201、 获取需要发送的分组数据。
202、 判断接入状态是否为直接接入; 如果是, 进入 203 ; 如果否, 进入
204。
终端的不同接入状态所采用的接入方式不同, 在本发明的一个实施例中, 不同接入状态的终端的默认的分组数据发送机制如表 5所示。
表 5
终端状态 默认的分组数据发送机制
直接接入分组数据直接发给 BS, 由 BS负责转发, 采用 cell接口; 如 果用户要求采用 adhoc模式, 则从簇头列表中选择中继点 协作接入协作机制, 从簇头列表中选择中继点接入, 采用 cell接口, 可能选择邻区簇头接入
混合接入从簇头列表中选择中继点接入, 采用 adhoc接口, 可能选择 邻区簇头接入
adhoc 采用 adhoc接口, 传统的 adhoc机制
203、 将分组数据发送给基站; 结束流程。
204、 从维护的簇头表中选择簇头。
具体地, 源终端可以按照如下原则从簇头表中选择簇头:
A、根据簇头表中簇头所在小区的利用率 U选择合适的小区,依据簇头的 资源信息从选择的小区中选择簇头。 如果源终端所在的本小区的利用率 U本大 于阈值 1 (在本发明的一个实施例中, 阈值 1可以为 90% )且相邻小区的利用 率 U邻小于阈值 2 (在本发明的一个实施例中, 阈值 1可以为 60% ), 则选择相 邻小区, 否则选择本小区。
B、 对同一小区的簇头, 可以依据簇头的资源信息进行簇头选择和接口选 择。 在本发明的一个实施例中, 如果簇头的剩余能量较多, 并且簇头与终端之 间的链路质量较好, 则被选中的可能性越大。 在本发明的一个实施例中, 采用 簇头的剩余能量以及簇头与终端之链路的路损的联合值选择簇头,可以采用如 下公式计算簇头的剩余能量以及簇头与终端之链路的路损的联合值:
p /
arg min ( Loss /N ) , ≥ 1。 其中, PLSS为终端 adhoc接口与簇头之间的链路路损, NRest为 adhoc接口 的能量。
使用该公式计算簇头的剩余能量以及簇头与终端之链路的路损的联合值 后,选取联合值数值较大的簇头,从而使剩余能量和路损联合值最优的簇头和 接口将被选中。 具体地, 如果选中的簇头是蜂窝簇头, 则对应的接口是蜂窝接 口; 选中的簇头是 adhoc簇头, 则对应的接口是 adhoc接口。
在本发明的一个实施例中,如果维护的簇头表为空, 该源终端可以向基站 发送中继请求,触发基站进行簇头选择和分簇,使该源终端可以根据簇头发送 的簇头公告更新簇头表, 从而使该源终端可以从更新后的簇头表选择簇头。
205、 将分组数据发送给从簇头表中选择的簇头; 结束流程。
从上可知,本实施例中源终端可以根据自身的接入状态确定分组数据的发 送方式, 并且在终端中维护了簇头表, 在进行分组数据的发送时仅需要从簇头 表中选择簇头,再将分组数据发送给簇头或直接发送给基站即可, 只要簇头表 中有簇头的信息, 终端在发送分组数据时都不需要向基站发送中继请求, 即在 终端进行链路处理,从而减少基站的资源开销, 同时源终端仅需要维护簇头信 息, 可以减少通信复杂度。
图 3描述了分组数据发送方法实施例二的流程,该实施例描述的是源终端 的处理流程, 包括:
301、 获取需要发送的分组数据。
302、 判断接入状态是否为直接接入; 如果是, 进入 303; 如果否, 进入

303、 将分组数据发送给基站; 结束流程。
304、 判断分组数据对应的业务的类型是否为蜂窝接入业务; 如果是, 进 入 305; 如果否, 进入 306。
由于源终端具有 adhoc和蜂窝接口, 因此源终端可以同时实现蜂窝接入和 在虚拟簇内的自组网通信。 源终端可以将业务划分为 2大类: 蜂窝接入业务和 adhoc业务,从而维护 2个分组緩存区, 对于蜂窝接入业务, 进行簇头选择时, 优先选取蜂窝接口; 对于 adhoc业务, 优先选择 adhoc接口。 其中, 对于业务 的分类可以根据用户的使用习惯, 所处的地域业务布局情况, 和业务的特性分 析来进行。 对于没有业务类别标识的分组, 采用默认的分组数据发送机制。
305、 从簇头表中选择蜂窝簇头, 将分组数据发送给该蜂窝簇头; 结束流 程。
306、 从簇头表中选择 adhoc簇头, 将分组数据发送给该 adhoc簇头; 结 束流程。
从上可知,本实施例中源终端可以根据自身的接入状态确定分组数据的发 送方式, 并且在终端中维护了簇头表, 在进行分组数据的发送时仅需要从簇头 表中选择簇头,再将分组数据发送给簇头或直接发送给基站即可, 只要簇头表 中有簇头的信息, 终端在发送分组数据时都不需要向基站发送中继请求, 即在 终端进行链路处理,从而减少基站的资源开销, 同时源终端仅需要维护簇头信 息, 可以减少通信复杂度; 进一步, 源终端在选择簇头时可以根据分组数据对 应的业务类型选择 adhoc接口或蜂窝接口,使源终端可以灵活地选择接口进行 通信。
在本发明的一个实施例中源终端将分组数据发送给簇头前还包括:在分组 数据中增加生存时间 (TTL: Time To Live ) 字段, 设置 TTL字段的字段值, 通过设置的 TTL字段的字段值, 使簇头可以根据字段值进行相邻簇头查找, 从而提高通信的成功率。

具体地, 可以通过 adhoc接口或蜂窝接口将分组数据发送给相邻扇区簇 头。 在本发明的一个实施例中, 为了减少干扰和便于基站的管理, 簇头之间的 通信仅使用 adhoc接口, 则此时仅通过 adhoc接口将分组数据发送给相邻扇区 簇头。
其中,如果发送虚拟簇头响应的相邻扇区簇头的数量为至少两个, 可以先 根据虚拟簇表中记录的相邻扇区簇头的资源信息,从该至少两个相邻扇区簇头 中选择一个相邻扇区簇头,再将分组数据发送给选择的一个相邻扇区簇头。具 体可以根据相邻簇头的资源信息从至少两个相邻山区簇头中选择一个相邻扇 区簇头;例如可以根据相邻簇头的剩余能量以及相邻簇头与自身之间链路的路 损的联合值进行选择。
从上可知, 本实施例中簇头在路由緩存表中没有到达目的终端的路径时, 可以将分组数据发送给相邻扇区簇头,通过相邻扇区簇头将分组数据发送给目 的终端, 从而不需要通过基站发送分组数据, 即在终端进行链路处理, 降低了 基站的资源开销,簇头仅需要维护相邻扇区簇头的信息和簇内终端的信息, 可 以降低通信的复杂度。

在本发明的一个实施例中, 为了使簇头在发送后续的分组数据时可以更 快,簇头在发送了分组数据后可以进一步根据发送的路径对维护的路由緩存表 进行更新。

在目的终端的接入状态为协作接入时,根据簇头的资源信息从簇头表中选 择一个簇头, 再通过蜂窝接口向选择的一个簇头发送所述分组数据; 具体地, 可以根据基站与簇头之间路径的路损、簇头与终端之间链路的路损以及簇头的 剩余能量的联合值从簇头表中选择一个簇头。在本发明第一个实施例中,基站 与簇头之间路径的路损、簇头与终端之间链路的路损以及簇头的剩余能量的联 合值可以通过下式计算:

其中, 为基站到簇头的链路的路损, PLOSSC-M为簇头到终端的链路 的路损。
