- the communication control unit 236 controls overall communication such as transmission processing and reception processing by the MTC terminal 20 and random access. For example, the communication control unit 236 generates a random number at the time of random access, and compares the generated random number with an AC barring factor received from the base station 10. Then, the communication control unit 236 causes the transmission circuit 222 to transmit a preamble when the generated random number is smaller than the AC barring factor. On the other hand, when the generated random number is larger than the AC barring factor, the random access is retried after a time determined based on the AC barring time received from the base station 10.

- the representative MTC terminal 20A performs random access to the base station 10 prior to other MTC terminals 20B in the MTC group. Specifically, when the representative MTC terminal 20A receives the system information from the base station 10 (S304), the representative MTC terminal 20A confirms the ACB parameter included in the system information (S308). Then, the communication control unit 236 of the representative MTC terminal 20A determines whether or not preamble transmission is possible based on the ACB parameter, and causes the transmission circuit 222 to transmit a preamble according to the determination result (S312).
- the base station 10 calculates the Timing Advance value from the relationship between the arrival time of the preamble to the base station 10 and the random access window (S316). Then, the base station 10 transmits a random access response to the representative MTC terminal 20A (S320).
- This random access response includes, for example, uplink transmission permission data and a Timing Advance value.
- the representative MTC terminal 20A When receiving the random access response, the representative MTC terminal 20A adjusts the transmission timing based on the Timing Advance value (S324), and then transmits the L2 / L3 message (S328).

- the base station 10 transmits a contention resolution message to the representative MTC terminal 20A (S332), whereby the representative MTC terminal 20A and the base station 10 are connected.
- the communication control unit 136 of the base station 10 resets the ACB parameters based on the group information received from the representative MTC terminal 20A (S336). For example, the communication control unit 136 may reset the AC barring factor to a smaller value as the number of terminals indicated by the group information received from the representative MTC terminal 20A is larger. Alternatively, the communication control unit 136 resends the AC barring time so that the larger the number of terminals indicated by the group information received from the representative MTC terminal 20A, the later the random access retry timing determined by the AC barring time. It may be set.
- the MTC terminal 20B confirms the ACB parameters after resetting with the reset flag being on with the MTC group 2 as the destination (S344). Then, the MTC terminal 20B determines whether or not preamble transmission based on the ACB parameter is possible, and transmits a preamble according to the determination result (S348).
- the base station 10 calculates the Timing Advance value from the relationship between the arrival time of the preamble to the base station 10 and the random access window (S352). Then, the base station 10 transmits a random access response to the MTC terminal 20B (S356).
- This random access response includes, for example, uplink transmission permission data and a Timing Advance value.
- the MTC terminal 20B Upon receiving the random access response, the MTC terminal 20B adjusts the transmission timing based on the Timing Advance value (S360), and transmits the L2 / L3 message (S364). On the other hand, when the base station 10 transmits a contention resolution message to the MTC terminal 20B (S368), the MTC terminal 20B and the base station 10 are connected.
- the preamble transmission timing from each MTC terminal 20 in the MTC group can be distributed according to the number of terminals in the MTC group. Therefore, it is possible to suppress random access congestion.
- FIG. 10 is a sequence diagram showing a modified example of the operation of the wireless communication system 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention.
- the representative MTC terminal 20A performs random access to the base station 10 prior to other MTC terminals 20B in the MTC group.
- the modification is different from the example shown in FIG. 9 in that the representative MTC terminal 20A does not transmit the group information together with the L2 / L3 message in S326.
- the representative MTC terminal 20A transmits group information to the base station 10 after random access to the base station 10 (S334). Subsequently, the communication control unit 136 of the base station 10 resets the ACB parameters based on the group information received from the representative MTC terminal 20A (S336).

Then, the base station 10 broadcasts RACH_configuration_index as system information, and the MTC terminal 20 transmits a preamble in a subframe specified by this RACH_configuration_index.
- FIG. 11 is an explanatory diagram showing the relationship between RACH_configuration_index and subframes. As shown in FIG. 11, each number of RACH_configuration_index is associated with one or more subframes. For example, RACH_configuration_index # 0 is associated with subframe # 1, and RACH_configuration_index # 9 is associated with subframes # 1, 4, and 7.
- the MTC terminal 20 transmits a preamble in a random access window in any one of the plurality of subframes. Therefore, it is considered that the preamble transmission from the MTC terminal 20 is dispersed in time as the number of subframes associated with the RACH_configuration_index increases.

4.まとめ
現在、3GPPにおいて4Gの無線通信システムの規格化が進められている。本発明の実施形態は、一例としてこの4Gの無線通信システムに適用することができるので、まず、4Gの無線通信システムの概略を説明する。
図1は、無線通信システム1の構成例を示した説明図である。図1に示したように、無線通信システム1は、基地局10と、MME(Mobility Management Entity)12、S-GW(Serving Gateway)14、およびPDN(Packet Data Network)-GW16を含むコアネットワークと、MTC端末20と、MTCサーバ30と、を備える。
・移動がほとんどない(Low Mobility)
・小容量のデータ転送(Online Small Data Transmission)
・超低消費電力(Extra Low Power Consumption)
・各MTCをグルーピングしてハンドリング(Group based MTC Features)
上記の基地局10およびMTC端末20は、詳細については決定されていないが、基地局10およびUE間の通信に準ずる形で無線通信を行うことが予想される。そこで、以下では、基地局10およびUE間で共有される無線フレーム、およびフレーム同期について説明する。以下で説明する内容は、基地局10およびMTC端末20間の通信に援用可能である。
4GのUEは、基地局10とランダムアクセスと呼ばれる手順を実行することにより、基地局10と接続される。詳細については決定されていないが、一般的なMTC端末もUEと同様のランダムアクセスを行うことにより基地局10と接続されるものと考えられる。以下、図3を参照し、基地局10と一般的なMTC端末により行われることが想定されるランダムアクセスの流れを説明する。
ACBは、LTEにおけるAC(Access Class)に応じたアクセス制限である。ACは、USIMに事前に記入された番号であり、0~9までの10種類の番号のいずれかが割り当てられている。なお、端末によっては、より優先度の高い11~15までのいずれかの番号が割り当てられる。例えば、AC13はpublic utilities (water/gas)であり、このACに属する端末はより優先度の高いアクセスが可能である。
ところで、上記のMTC端末が普及すると、MTC端末によるランダムアクセスの集中によりMTCの輻輳が生じることが懸念される。より具体的には、MTCの輻輳は、主に以下に示す2つのケースにおいて生じ得る。
MTC端末は、30分ごと、または毎時報時など、周期的に基地局10と接続し、基地局10を介してMTCサーバに情報を送信することが求められ得る。この場合、多数のMTC端末が、基地局10との接続に際し、プリアンブルの送信を含むランダムアクセスを一斉に行うことが予想される。その結果、ランダムアクセスが集中し、MTCの輻輳が生じると考えられる。
停電直後の復帰や、災害、大雨などによって、テレメトリーなMTC端末が、想定できない突発的/不定期な一斉送信を行う場合がある。この場合にも、ランダムアクセスが集中し、MTCの輻輳が生じると考えられる。
[2-1.MTC端末のグループ化]
本発明の各実施形態は、複数のMTC端末20をグループ化し、グループ内の代表MTC端末を決定することにより実現される。そこで、基地局10やMTC端末20の構成の説明に先立ち、MTC端末20のグループ化や代表MTC端末の決定について説明する。
次に、図6を参照し、本発明の第1の実施形態による基地局10の構成を説明する。
以上、本発明の第1の実施形態による基地局10の構成を説明した。続いて、図8を参照し、本発明の第1の実施形態によるMTC端末20の構成を説明する。
以上、本発明の第1の実施形態による基地局10およびMTC端末20の構成を説明した。続いて、図9を参照し、本発明の第1の実施形態による無線通信システム1の動作を説明する。
なお、上記ではグループ情報をL2/L3メッセージと共に送信する例を説明したが、以下に図10を参照して説明する変形例のように、代表MTC端末20Aは基地局10との接続後にグループ情報を送信してもよい。
以上、本発明の第1の実施形態を説明した。続いて、本発明の第2の実施形態を説明する。本発明の第2の実施形態は、第1の実施形態と共通する部分が多いが、基地局10が代表MTC端末20から受信したグループ情報に基づいて再設定する情報が第1の実施形態と異なる。このような本発明の第2の実施形態を説明するにあたり、まず、MTC端末20がランダムアクセスを行うためのリソースについて補足する。
基地局10は、ランダムアクセスにおいてMTC端末20がプリンアンブルを送信するためのリソースを、RACH_configuration_indexにより指定する。そして、基地局10は、RACH_configuration_indexをシステム情報として報知し、MTC端末20は、このRACH_configuration_indexにより特定されるサブフレームにおいてプリアンブルを送信する。
そこで、本発明の第2の実施形態による基地局10は、代表MTC端末20から受信したグループ情報に基づき、RACH_configuration_indexを再設定する。具体的には、第2の実施形態による基地局10の通信制御部236は、RACH_configuration_indexを、代表MTC端末20から受信したグループ情報の示す端末数が多いほど、より多くのサブフレームと対応付けられているRACH_configuration_indexに再設定する。以下、図12を参照し、より詳細に説明する。
以上説明したように、本発明の実施形態によれば、代表MTC端末20がMTCグループ内の端末数を示すグループ情報を基地局10に送信し、基地局10が、グループ情報の示す端末数に応じてACBパラメータやRACH_configuration_indexなどのランダムアクセスを制御するための制御情報を再設定する。そして、MTCグループ内の他のMTC端末20は、再設定されたACBパラメータやRACH_configuration_indexなどに従ってランダムアクセスを行う。かかる構成によれば、MTCグループ内の各MTC端末20からのプリアンブル送信タイミングを、MTCグル―プ内の端末数に応じて分散させることができるので、ランダムアクセスの輻輳を抑制することが可能である。
