Description

Technical field

The present invention relates to the field of wireless communications, and in particular, to a method, device, and system for transmitting paging information. Background technique

Based on the Long Term Evolution (LTE) protocol, the process of receiving user information (User Equipment, UE) to receive paging information and connect to the service is as follows:

After the UE is powered on, the UE first needs to perform a cell initial search process to obtain a Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS) and a Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS); and then pass a downlink cell-specific pilot signal (Cell-specific). Reference signals, CRS) Port 0 and Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH), obtain accurate synchronization, and obtain the cell master information block; then further read other System Information Block (SIB) information to obtain the network More content; The UE selects a resident network according to needs, and obtains a Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity (TMSI) according to its International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI).

When there is a calling UE paging the called UE in the system, the system will instruct the wireless network base station to initiate a paging message to the called UE through the core network, where the paging message includes the TMSI of the called UE. The radio network base station generally uses a public radio network temporary identifier (P-RNTI) to indicate the physical downlink of the called UE at a specified time-frequency resource location through a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH). The paging information is read on the PDSCH (Physical Downlink Shared Channel, ).

All the UEs in the cell receive the P-RNTI scrambled scheduling signaling at the paging time corresponding to the paging time (the paging moments corresponding to different UEs may be different), and read the information in the PDSCH; the PDSCH to be read The indicated TMSI is compared with its own TMSI. If it is consistent, it determines that it is paged and returns the paging response. If it is inconsistent, the current paging is ignored. Finally, the called UE initiates a random access procedure to establish a radio bearer. The network side may further send related information of the service application layer of the calling UE to the called UE, for example, a subscription number of the calling UE, a calling UE application layer account, and the like.

In the process of paging based on the Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-Advanced) system, the UE needs to be able to normally receive PSS/SSS signals, PBCH, Broadcast Control Channel (BCCH), PDCCH, PDSCH.

As shown in FIG. 8, the method for receiving paging information in the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

Step 801: After determining that the terminal is in an idle state, the terminal detects the enhanced paging channel.

Step 802: The terminal determines to send a paging response to the network side after determining that the paging information received by the enhanced paging channel is itself paged;

The sequence autocorrelation gain of the enhanced paging channel is greater than the sequence autocorrelation gain of all channels in the system; The transmit power of the enhanced paging channel is greater than the average transmit power of the cell in which the called terminal is located.

In the specific implementation process, the terminal determines that it is in an idle state by the following steps:

The terminal determines that it is in an idle state when it determines that one or more of the PSS, SSS, PBCH, BCCH, PDCCH, and PDSCH cannot be detected; or

When the terminal determines that one or more of the PSS, SSS, PBCH, BCCH, PDCCH, and PDSCH cannot be decoded, it determines that it is in an idle state.

The paging information in the enhanced paging channel detected by the terminal is divided into the following two cases:

First, the paging information includes all data of the identification code of the called terminal;

Second, the paging information includes partial data of the identification code of the called terminal and a location identifier of the location of the partial data in the identification code.

For the first case, the paging information includes all the data of the identification code of the called terminal, and the processing of the terminal includes:

When it is determined that the identification code of the detected paging information is consistent with its own identification code, it is determined that the terminal is paged, and sends a paging response to the network side device; or

For the second case, the paging information includes the partial data of the identification code of the called terminal and the location identifier of the location of the partial data in the identification code. The processing of the terminal includes:

Determining, according to the location identifier in the paging information, a location corresponding to the identity code of the paging information, and determining that the partial data of the identifier code in the paging information is in the same location as the identity code of the identity information in the paging information. When the data is consistent, the enhanced paging channel is continuously detected; when it is determined that part of the data of the identification code in each detected paging information is consistent with the data of the same location in its own identification code, it is determined that the terminal is paged; or

Preferably, the terminal periodically detects the enhanced paging channel.

If the network side includes the base stations of the cells corresponding to the core network and the core network, the sending of the paging response by the terminal in step 802 includes the following situations:

The terminal sends a paging response to the base station, and then the base station sends the paging response to the core network;

The terminal sends the paging response to the core network, and then the core network sends the paging response to the base station;

The terminal simultaneously sends the paging response to the base station and the core network.

The method for receiving paging information in the embodiment of the present invention further includes:

The terminal receives data other than the paging information sent by the network side through the enhanced paging channel.

Preferably, the data other than the paging information may be a service number and/or a paging ID of the calling terminal. The method for transmitting paging information in the embodiment of the present invention is described in detail below by taking the LTE system as an example. In this embodiment, user equipment A is called as the calling user, and user equipment B is the called user.

As shown in FIG. 9, the method for transmitting paging information in the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

Step 901: A service of user equipment A initiates a call to user equipment B, and sends a call request to the core network;

Step 902: The core network acquires the TMSI of the user equipment B according to the call request, and the tracking area TA where the user equipment B is located;

Step 903: The core network sends the indication information to the base station of all the cells in the tracking area TA where the user equipment B is located, to indicate that the base station initiates paging to the user equipment B by using other paging channels except the enhanced paging channel, where The indication information includes at least the TMSI of the user equipment B and the configuration information of the user equipment B listening to the paging moment;

Step 904: The base station uses a common P-RNTI to schedule the user equipment B to read paging information on the PDSCH channel of the specified time-frequency resource location through the PDCCH channel.

Step 905: User equipment B determines whether it is in an idle state;

If yes, user equipment B does not normally feed back the paging response, and step 911 is performed;

If no, step 906 is performed;

Specifically, the user equipment B determines that the user enters the idle state when determining that the PSS/SS, the PBCH, the BCCH of the cell in which the cell is located, the PDCCH that is scrambled by the P-RNTI, and one or more channels in the PDSCH cannot be normally read; 906. User equipment B reads paging information on a PDSCH channel that specifies a time-frequency resource location. Step 907: User equipment B determines whether the TMSI indicated in the paging information in the PDSCH channel is consistent with its own TMSI.

If yes, proceed to step 908;

If not, ignore this page.

Step 908: The user equipment B determines that the paging is a page for itself, and returns a paging response to the base station, further initiates a random access procedure, and establishes a radio bearer;

Step 909: After the core network fails to send the paging information by using the paging channel other than the enhanced paging channel, the base station indicating all the cells of the TA where the user equipment B is located initiates an enhanced paging, that is, indicates that the base station passes the enhanced paging. Sending paging information on the channel;

Specifically, when the core network does not receive the paging response fed back by the user equipment B within the set time or the set number of transmission times, determining that the paging information is sent by using other paging channels except the enhanced paging channel fails. .

Step 910: The base station sends paging information to the user equipment B by using an enhanced paging channel.

Step 911: User equipment B enters an idle paging monitoring mode according to the network configuration indication, and detects an enhanced paging channel.

Step 912: The user equipment B decodes the paging information of the enhanced paging channel, and determines the TMSI indicated in the paging information. Whether it is consistent with the TMSI before the idle time;

If yes, proceed to step 913;

If not, ignore this page.

Step 913: Determine that the paging is a paging to itself, and feed back a paging response to the base station;

Preferably, in order to ensure that the called user can receive the paging as much as possible, in the embodiment of the present invention, the network side is also enhanced by sending paging information through other paging channels except the enhanced paging channel. The paging information is sent on the paging channel.

Preferably, after receiving the paging response from the called user, the network side sends the service number of the calling user to the called user within the time specified by the two parties or the time specified by the agreement, or the paging ID and the primary The service number is jointly sent to the called user.

The following is still taking the LTE system as an example to describe the design of the enhanced paging channel in detail to increase the sequence autocorrelation gain of the enhanced paging channel.

For a satellite communication system, usually one satellite corresponds to one Mobility Management Entity (MME), and the short-form Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity (S-TMSI) of the UE corresponding to each satellite includes MMEC and M-TMSI, ie S-TMSI=(8bits) MMEC+(32bits) M-TMSI; where MMEC is the MME code, MMEC is 8bits data, M-TMSI is used to uniquely represent the UE in the MME, and M-TMSI is 32 bits of data.

It should be noted that the meaning of the TMSI used to identify the UE is different in different systems. For example, in the LTE system, the S-TMSI is used to identify the UE; in the Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) system. The P-TMSI is used to identify the UE in a packet switched (PS) domain.

Since the MMECs in the TMSI of the UE corresponding to the same satellite are the same, if the UE needs to be paged in the LTE system, the network side only needs to track the M-TMSI of the called UE at the called UE. Paging in the area TA;

Of course, the network side may also page the TMSI of the called UE in the tracking area TA where the called UE is located. The following describes the enhanced paging channel in the embodiment of the present invention by using the M-TMSI as the example of the paging information sent by the network side through the enhanced paging channel.

As shown in FIG. 10, the method for the network side to transmit the M-TMSI through the enhanced paging channel includes the following steps: Step 1001: The network side divides the 32-bit data of the M-TMSI when determining that the M-TMSI needs to be sent through the enhanced paging channel. It is 8 data segments, each data segment includes 4 bits of M-TMSI data, and the position identifier indicating the position of each 4 bit data segment in the 32-bit M-TMSI is placed in the corresponding data segment, wherein each position The identifier includes 3 bits of data, and each data segment includes 7 bits of data, thereby reducing the detection complexity of the terminal;

Step 1002: The network side performs sequence design in units of each data segment to obtain a sequence corresponding to each data segment. To ensure system performance, preferably, the network side expands the sequence corresponding to each data segment, for example, each The sequence corresponding to the data segments is extended to a sequence of length 256. Specifically, each data segment can use 27=128 of the Walsh orthogonal sequence of length 256, wherein the Walsh sequence is characterized by a self-phase gain of 256 and a cross-correlation of 0 under synchronous conditions.

Step 1003: Perform modulation processing on a sequence of length 256 corresponding to each data segment, where each data segment occupies 128 modulation symbols;

In this step, a Quaternary Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) modulation method, a 16QAM (Quadature Amplitude Modulation) modulation method, an 8 QAM modulation method, or the like may be used;

Preferably, each data segment is modulated by a QPSK modulation method to ensure correct reception of the signal. Step 1004: Map 128 modulation symbols corresponding to each data segment obtained in step 1003 to a physical resource block (PRB) of the LTE system center;

Preferably, the network side respectively maps the modulation symbols corresponding to each data segment to a specific resource unit (RE) in the OFDM symbol, where the specific resource unit refers to the resource unit in the OFDM symbol except for the protection modulation symbol. Resource unit, as shown in Figure 11;

For example, the LTE system includes 72 REs per OFDM symbol (Sign), and 128 modulation symbols corresponding to each data segment occupy 64 REs of two Symbols in the subframe, and 4 REs are reserved on each side of the two Symbols. For protecting the modulation symbol, the 64 resource units in each Symbol are specific resource units.

In order to ensure that the 128 modulation symbols corresponding to each data segment do not coincide with the PSS/SSS of the LTE system, preferably, the modulation symbols corresponding to each data segment are mapped to OFDM symbols other than the PSS and/or SSS mapped OFDM symbols. On the resource unit of the symbol; for example, to ensure that the 128 modulation symbols corresponding to each data segment do not coincide with the PSS/SSS of the LTE system, the modulation symbols corresponding to each data segment are mapped to the 4th and 5th in the subframe. In a specific RE in a Symbol, as shown in Figure 11.

Step 1005: The network side periodically sends each data segment, and sends one data segment per cycle.

Preferably, the network side sends each data segment in a period of 5ms or 10ms, so as to maintain the consistency with the system PSS/SSS sequence, further reducing the terminal detection complexity.

In order to improve the detection performance of the terminal, preferably, the network side periodically transmits each data segment repeatedly;

Specifically, the network side may repeatedly send each data segment in sequence; for example, for each data segment, the network side repeats the transmission twice, that is, the network side sends the first data segment in the first cycle, in the second cycle. The first data segment is still sent, the second data segment is sent in the third cycle, the second data segment is still transmitted in the fourth cycle, and so on, until the M-TMSI is sent. All data segments;

The network side may further repeat each data segment corresponding to the paging information after transmitting a complete paging message; still sending the network side twice as an example, and the network side sends the first one in the first cycle. The data segment, in the second cycle, sends the second data segment, ..., sends the eighth data segment in the eighth cycle, and transmits the first data segment in the ninth cycle, in the tenth The second data segment is sent periodically, ..., and the eighth data segment is sent in the sixteenth cycle; If the network side sends a data segment in a period of 5ms or 10ms, a complete enhanced paging cycle requires 16*5ms or 16*10ms.

Preferably, the maximum number of times the system can configure full enhanced paging is 1-5 times.

Correspondingly, as shown in FIG. 12, the method for the terminal to receive the M-TMSI through the enhanced paging channel includes the following steps: Step 1201: After determining that the terminal is in an idle state, the terminal periodically detects the enhanced paging channel.

Step 1202: After detecting a paging information, the terminal determines its own according to the location identifier in the paging information.

Corresponding position in M-TMSI, and judging the 4bits data in the paging information and the same position in the own M-TMSI

Whether the 4bits data is the same;

If yes, step 1203 is performed;

If no, step 1204 is performed;

Step 1203: The terminal determines whether there is still paging information corresponding to the M-TMSI of the called terminal.

If yes, step 1205 is performed;

If no, step 1206 is performed;

Step 1204: After the sleep setting is set, the enhanced paging channel is continuously detected.

Preferably, the terminal can continue to detect the enhanced paging channel after sleeping for 1~5 detection periods;

Step 1205, the terminal continues to detect the enhanced paging channel, and step 1202 is performed;

Step 1206: The terminal determines that it is paged, and returns a paging response to the network side.

As long as the terminal detects that any one of the data segments corresponding to the M-TMSI of the eight called terminals is different from the 4-bit data of the same location in its own M-TMSI, the terminal stops detecting the enhanced paging channel, and sleeps 1 After the 5 enhanced paging cycles, the enhanced paging channel continues to be detected, thereby reducing the detection complexity of the terminal.
