For a cell supporting multiple carriers, a carrier carrying a high-speed dedicated physical control channel (HS-DPCCH) is referred to as a primary carrier (primary cell), and a carrier not carrying an HS-DPCCH is referred to as a secondary carrier (secondary cell).

FIG. 1 is a schematic flowchart of a multi-carrier configuration method according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the multi-carrier configuration method in this embodiment may be as follows.

The RNC receives the first HS-SCCH configuration information and the indication information sent by the NodeB, where the first HS-SCCH configuration information is the HS-SCCH configuration information of the non-CELL_DCH state of the at least two carriers.

For example, the indication information is used to indicate the HS-SCCH in the HS-SCCH identified by the first HS-SCCH configuration information that is available for downlink data transmission of multiple carriers. Optionally, the foregoing indication information may be an available indication of an HS-SCCH in the HS-SCCH indicating the first HS-SCCH configuration information identifier, which is applicable to downlink data transmission of the multi-carrier, for example, a Permitted Indicator, The allowable indication can be Boolean, and when the value is Ture, it indicates that downlink data transmission for multi-carrier is allowed.

State can work when working The problem of data loss caused by the maximum number of HS-SCCHs is heard, thereby further improving the reliability of data transmission.

For example, before the foregoing 101, the NodeB may further determine an HS-SCCH that can be used for downlink data transmission of multiple carriers in the HS-SCCH identified by the first HS-SCCH configuration information. For example, if the sum of the number of HS-SCCHs identified by the first HS-SCCH configuration information of the non-CELL_DCH state of the at least two carriers exceeds the maximum number of HS-SCCHs that the UE can monitor when operating in the multi-carrier state, the foregoing NodeB And selecting, from the HS-SCCHs identified by the first HS-SCCH configuration information of the non-CELL_DCH states of the at least two carriers, the maximum number of HS-SCCHs, as HSs of downlink data transmissions that are not available for multi-carriers. The SCCH, or the maximum number of HS-SCCHs, is selected as the HS-SCCH available for multi-carrier downlink data transmission.

For example, the HS-SCCH identified by the second HS-SCCH configuration information is the HS-SCCH that can be used for downlink data transmission of multiple carriers in the HS-SCCH identified by the first HS-SCCH configuration information.

For example, after the UE establishes a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection in a certain cell, and enters the CELL_FACH state, the RNC passes the second HS-SCCH configuration included in the radio bearer reconfiguration message sent to the UE. The information configures the multi-carrier HS-SCCH and specifies the HS-SCCH available for multi-carrier downlink data transmission in each carrier.

Optionally, if the HS-SCCH of the primary carrier (primary cell) is not disabled, the RNC may specify downlink data available for multiple carriers in the secondary carrier (secondary cell) only in the radio bearer reconfiguration message sent to the UE. The HS-SCCH is transmitted.

Alternatively, the RNC may also not perform 203, but configure a multi-carrier HS-SCCH to the UE by transmitting a broadcast message including the second HS-SCCH configuration information, and specify downlink data available for multiple carriers in each carrier. The HS-SCCH is transmitted. For example, the second HS-SCCH configuration information may include the foregoing first HS-SCCH configuration information and a prohibition indication.

The HS-SCCH in the SCCH, which is used for multi-carrier downlink data transmission, to perform multi-carrier downlink data reception according to the second HS-SCCH configuration information and the scheduling of the NodeB when the UE is in the non-CELL_DCH state.

For example, the RNC may send the second HS-SCCH configuration information of the non-CELL_DCH state of the at least two carriers to the UE by using a dedicated message related to the radio configuration, for example, the dedicated message related to the radio bearer configuration may be RADIO BEARER RECONFIGURATION message or wireless carrier setup (RADIO BEARER) SETUP) Messages and other messages.

The maximum number can avoid the data loss caused by the sum of the number of HS-SCCHs that the NodeB configures for the UE on each carrier in the prior art may exceed the maximum number of HS-SCCHs that the UE can monitor when working in the multi-carrier state. The problem further improves the reliability of data transmission.

For example, after the foregoing 301, before 302, the RNC may further determine an HS-SCCH that can be used for downlink data transmission of multiple carriers in the HS-SCCH identified by the first HS-SCCH configuration information. For example, if the sum of the number of HS-SCCHs identified by the first HS-SCCH configuration information of the non-CELL_DCH state of the at least two carriers exceeds the maximum number of HS-SCCHs that the UE can monitor when operating in the multi-carrier state, the RNC And selecting, from the HS-SCCH identified by the first HS-SCCH configuration information of the non-CELL_DCH state of the at least two carriers, the maximum number of HS-SCCHs, as downlink data transmissions that are not applicable to multiple carriers.

503. The UE uses the HS-SCCH that can be used for downlink data transmission of multiple carriers to perform downlink data reception of multiple carriers according to scheduling of the NodeB.

In this embodiment, the HS-SCCH in the HS-SCCH that is used for the multi-carrier downlink data transmission in the HS-SCCH identified by the HS-SCCH configuration information is determined by the UE, so that the downlink data transmission that can be used for multiple carriers can be utilized when the UE is in the non-CELL_DCH state. The HS-SCCH performs multi-carrier downlink data reception according to the scheduling of the NodeB, thereby improving the reliability of data transmission.

Further, the sum of the HS-SCCHs that can be used for the downlink data transmission of the multi-carrier in the HS-SCCH identified by the HS-SCCH configuration information determined by the UE may be less than or equal to the maximum of the HS-SCCH that the UE can monitor when operating in the multi-carrier state. The number can avoid the problem that the sum of the number of HS-SCCHs configured by the NodeB to the UE on each carrier in the prior art may exceed the maximum number of HS-SCCHs that the UE can monitor when operating in the multi-carrier state. And thus One step improves the reliability of data transmission.

For example, if the sum of the number of HS-SCCHs identified by the HS-SCCH configuration information of the non-CELL_DCH state of the at least two carriers exceeds the maximum number of HS-SCCHs that the UE can monitor when operating in the multi-carrier state, the UE may Selecting, from the HS-SCCH identified by the HS-SCCH configuration information of the non-CELL_DCH state of the at least two carriers, the maximum number of HS-SCCHs, as an HS-SCCH or a selection site that is not available for downlink data transmission of multiple carriers. The maximum number of HS-SCCHs is described as an HS-SCCH that can be used for multi-carrier downlink data transmission. And further determining, according to the selected HS-SCCH that is not applicable to multi-carrier downlink data transmission or the HS-SCCH that can be used for downlink data transmission of multiple carriers, that the HS-SCCH identified by the HS-SCCH configuration information is applicable to multiple carriers. HS-SCCH for downlink data transmission.

For example, the UE may select more than the maximum number of HS-SCCHs from the HS-SCCH identified by the HS-SCCH configuration information of the non-CELL_DCH state of the at least two carriers in multiple manners, as the downlink that is not applicable to the multi-carrier. HS-SCCH for data transmission. The following examples give a detailed description:

For example, the UE may select a carrier from the at least two carriers, and the number of HS-SCCHs identified by the HS-SCCH configuration information of the selected carrier is greater than a preset threshold number (for example: 3), and the HS-from the selected carrier. The HS-SCCH identified by the SCCH configuration information is selected from a pre-designated one of the HS-SCCHs. For example, the UE may select a fourth HS-SCCH that is specified in advance, or the identification information of the UE, for example: a temporary identifier of the cell radio network. (Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier, C-RNTI), High-Speed Downlink Shared Channel RNTI (H-RNTI), E-DCH Radio Network Temporary Identifier _ _ _ _ _ The modulo 4 operation is performed on 5, and the result is 1, and the first HS-SCCH is selected. For another example, the UE may select one carrier with the largest number of HS-SCCHs identified by the HS-SCCH configuration information from the at least two carriers, and select from the HS-SCCH identified by the HS-SCCH configuration information of the selected carrier. Pre-designated one HS-SCCH, or by performing modulo-4 operation on the identification information of the UE, selecting the HS-SCCH corresponding to the operation result from the HS-SCCH identified by the HS-SCCH configuration information of the selected carrier, until the selection exceeds The maximum number of HS-SCCHs. It can be understood that the UE can repeatedly perform the above selection process until the sum of the number of remaining HS-SCCHs of each carrier is equal to the maximum number of HS-SCCHs that the UE can listen to when operating in the multi-carrier state.

For example, the UE may select the maximum number of HS-SCCHs from the HS-SCCHs identified by the HS-SCCH configuration information of the non-CELL_DCH state of the at least two carriers in multiple manners, as available for multi-carrier downlink data transmission. HS-SCCH. The following examples give a detailed explanation:

For example: the UE may select, from the at least two carriers, the number of HS-SCCHs identified by the HS-SCCH configuration information that is greater than a preset threshold number (eg, 3), and identify the HS-SCCH configuration information from the selected carrier. Selecting the threshold number of HS-SCCHs in the HS-SCCH, or performing modulo-4 operations on the identification information of the UE, and selecting and performing the operation result from the HS-SCCH identified by the HS-SCCH configuration information of the selected carrier. Corresponding HS-SCCH, and selecting an HS-SCCH identifier of the HS-SCCH configuration information of the other carriers of the at least two carriers, for example: E-RNTI is 5, then performing a modulo 4 operation on 5, the result is 1, Then select the second, third, and fourth HS-SCCH.
