Description

一种物理随机接入信道的接入方法和系统 技术领域
本发明涉及无线通信中的随机接入技术, 尤其涉及一种物理随机接入 信道 ( PRACH , Physical Random Access Channel ) 的接入方法和系统。 背景技术
随着移动通信系统的演进, 用户的业务服务质量已成为运营商的首要 目标, 业务服务质量影响了服务性能, 也决定了用户对业务的满意度。 提 高服务质量的重要方面就是建立连接和信道分配时的时间延迟以及成功 率。
为了进一步增强通讯系统的应用范围, 引入了物联网的概念, 并在通 讯业标准会议上获得广泛推动。 广义的物联网既包括传统的人到人(H2H, human to human )的通讯, 也包括机器到机器(M2M, Machine to Machine ) 的通讯, 在第三代合作伙伴计划(3GPP )会议中, M2M又被立项为机器类 型通信 ( MTC , Machine Type Communication )。 引入 M2M 4既念后, 通讯业 务被扩展了各行各业的方方面面。 例如智能家居, 包括家庭电器的远程控 制、 家庭安防的远程监控等等; 智能交通, 包括交通流量的监控、 事故监 控、 车辆监控等; 智能计量, 包括工业仪表的监控和远程控制、 远程抄表 等。
M2M业务将覆盖到生活和工作、 生产的各个领域, M2M的终端数量 相比起现有的 H2H通讯终端, 将大大的超越。 这就对现有的无线接入网构 成了新的压力。 其中最可能形成瓶颈的就是现有的无线接入能力很可能无 法满足大量 M2M终端接入的要求。
M2M终端和 H2H终端发起呼叫的行为特征有很大的区别, H2H终端 的呼叫到达通常密度较小, 而 M2M终端的呼叫到达密度通常较大。 以智能 电网抄表业务为例, 在城区人口密集的地区, 一个基站小区所覆盖区域内 包括的智能电表数量可以达到上万个, 当到达电表数据上报时间时, 上万 个电表会在很短时间内 (例如 10秒内)一起发起无线接入, 这样会导致在 这段时间内无线接入网的接入能力达到上限, 从而严重影响普通 H2H终端 用户的接入, 用户体验的现象就是 H2H呼叫无法成功, 或者需要等待很长 时间才能呼叫成功,这会严重影响到 H2H终端用户的感受度。而对于 M2M 设备来说, 其服务质量( QoS, Quality of Serivce )要求和 H2H终端是不同 的, 对于很大一部分的 M2M业务来说(例如智能电表), 较长的无线接入 的延时是可以接受的。
此外 M2M引入的业务类型还有其他很多类型, 例如火警报警, 其对接 入延迟的要求就可能比 H2H终端更加严格; 对于这种类型的 M2M终端或 者业务,很明显也需要和 QoS要求较低的终端或者业务区别对待。一般是, 针对接入延迟的不同要求, 不同终端或者不同的业务具有不同的接入优先 级。
M2M还引入了终端分组(Group ) 的概念, 对于相同类型的终端、 或 者同处于某个区域内的终端, 将其按组进行管理, 可以大大节省空口的开 销, 例如执行按组寻呼, 比起普通的按单个终端寻呼, 可极大节省寻呼信 令开销。
考虑到上述因素 , 如何使 M2M终端的密集接入行为对 H2H终端造成 的影响减小甚至消除, 是一个目前需要解决的重要问题。
以 UMTS系统为例, 现有协议规定的用于表征 PRACH的信元有: 扰 码( Scrambling Code )号和签名 ( Signature )。 不同的扰码可以用于区分不 同的 PRACH, 在使用相同扰码的情况下, 也可以使用的不同的签名来区分 不同的 PRACH。 目前的 UMTS系统, 当 M2M终端大量接入时, 扰码资源 和签名资源被大量占用; 此时如果有 H2H终端接入, 就会有很大的概率发 生接入冲突,导致 H2H终端不断重新发起接入,从而产生很大的接入时延, 甚至接入失败。 发明内容
有鉴于此, 本发明的主要目的在于提供一种 PRACH 的接入方法和系 统 , 避免 M2M终端的密集接入对 H2H终端接入的影响 , 保证 H2H终端的 无线接入满足 QoS要求。

具体的, 终端 22在需要发起随机接入时, 按照与接入网网元 21约定 使用的终端特征类别 ,查询自身的终端特征类别在所述 PRACH分类信息中 所属的分类, 按照所述分类查找到对应的 PRACH, 终端 22从系统消息中 读取所述 PRACH的配置信息,根据所述 PRACH的配置信息中的扰码和签 名构造前缀发起随机接入。 本实施例中, 以 UMTS系统为例, 实现 PRACH的接入方法, 如图 3 所示, 该方法包括以下几个步骤:
步骤 301 : NodeB按照终端特征类别设置 PRACH分类信息;
具体的, NodeB按照至少一种终端特征类别进行分类, 分别对每一种 分类配置一个或多个 PRACH, 该 PRACH为这个分类专用, 将所述终端特 征类别及对应的 PRACH信息作为 PRACH分类信息;
本步骤进一步包括, NodeB 对每个 PRACH 配置专用的扰码, 每个 PRACH所对应的扰码可以是相同, 也可以是不同的;
所述终端特征类别包括: 终端类型、 呼叫业务类型、 终端分组、 接入 优先级等;
所述终端类型, 例如是 M2M终端、 或 H2H终端、 或者是除 M2M终 端和 H2H终端以外的其他类型终端;
所述呼叫业务类型, 例如是普通呼叫、 或紧急呼叫、 或属于 M2M的新 的呼叫业务类型;
所述终端分组, 指发起随机接入的终端属于的终端分组;
所述接入优先级, 指发起随机接入的终端或者呼叫业务所具有的接入 优先级;
本步骤若按照终端类型分类, 则所述 PRACH分类信息如表 1所示,每 一种终端类型, 可以对应一个或多个 PRACH, 如表 1中, 可以釆用 16位 长度的比特位图 ( bitmap )来表示对应的 PRACH, 其中比特位图的相应位 的比特为 1 ,则表示其对应的 PRACH分配给了该终端类型; 例如:若比特位 图 = 0001000010000000,则表示序号为 3和 8的 2个 PRACH分配给了对应 的终端类型,这里的比特位图之所以用 16位长度,是因为在 UMTS系统中, 能够支持配置的最大 PRACH个数是 16。

若按照终端分组分类, 则所述 PRACH分类信息可以如表 3所示;

表 3
若按照接入优先级分类, 则所述 PRACH分类信息可以如表 4所示。

表 4
步骤 302: NodeB将所述 PRACH分类信息发送到终端;
具体的, NodeB将所述 PRACH分类信息添加到系统信息中进行广播, 终端通过读取系统信息获得所述 PRACH分类信息;
进一步的,所述 PRACH分类信息可以在现有的系统信息中添加; 也可 以定义新的系统信息, 在所述新的系统信息中放置所述 PRACH分类信息; 或者, NodeB将所述 PRACH分类信息通过寻呼发送给终端; 进一步的, NodeB可以通过分组寻呼将所述 PRACH分类信息发送给 分组终端, 这样可以降低信令开销。
步骤 303: 终端根据自身的终端特征类别在所述 PRACH分类信息中选 择相应的 PRACH发起随机接入;
具体的, 终端在需要发起随机接入时, 按照与 NodeB约定使用的终端 特征类别, 查询自身的终端特征类别在所述 PRACH分类信息中所属的分 类, 按照所述分类查找到对应的 PRACH , 终端从系统消息中读取所述 PRACH的配置信息, 根据所述 PRACH的配置信息中的扰码和签名构造前 缀发起随机接入;
其中,在所述 PRACH分类信息中的终端特征类别对应多个 PRACH时, 可以任意选择其中一个可用的 PRACH。
综上所述,通过按照终端特征类别对 PRACH进行分类,可以对具有不 同终端特征类别的终端分配不同的 PRACH, 避免 M2M终端的密集接入对 H2H终端接入的影响, 保证 H2H终端的无线接入满足 QoS要求。
以上所述, 仅为本发明的较佳实施例而已, 并非用于限定本发明的保 护范围, 凡在本发明的精神和原则之内所作的任何修改、 等同替换和改进 等, 均应包含在本发明的保护范围之内。
