Description

The present invention relates to the field of communications, and in particular to a user equipment (User Equipment, UE for short) type reporting, resource allocation method and apparatus, UE, and base station. . BACKGROUND In the Long Term EYolution Advance (LTE-A), in order to provide mobile users with higher data rates, Carrier Aggregation (CA) is proposed. In LTE, the maximum downlink transmission bandwidth supported by the system is 20 MHz. Carrier aggregation is to aggregate two or more component carriers (also referred to as CCs) (also called serving cells) to support more than 20 MHz and no more than 100 MHz. Transmission bandwidth. In the LTE-A system, after the UE enters the connected state, it can simultaneously communicate with the source base station through multiple component carriers (also referred to as a serving cell, including a primary serving cell and a secondary serving cell). In the Long Term EYolution Advance (LTE-A), Carrier Aggregation (CA) is proposed to provide mobile users with higher data rates. In LTE, the maximum downlink transmission bandwidth supported by the system is 20 MHz. Carrier aggregation is to aggregate two or more component carriers (also referred to as CCs) (also called serving cells) to support more than 20 MHz and no more than 100 MHz. Transmission bandwidth. In the LTE-A system, after the UE enters the connected state, it can simultaneously communicate with the source base station through multiple component carriers (also referred to as a serving cell, including a primary serving cell and a secondary serving cell). The capability query process performed by the base station to the UE is as shown in FIG. 1. The base station requests the UE to report the capability through the UECapabilityEnqmry message, and the UE reports its capability to the base station through the UECapabilitylnformatkm message, where the capability includes the terminal class. Currently, there are 8 types of terminal classes, categories 1 to 8, and the downlink of each class corresponds to the following information: the maximum number of bits of a DL-SCH transport block received within one TTI, and a single DL-SCH transport block received within one TTI The maximum number of bits, and the total number of soft channel bits, the maximum number of layers supported during space division multiplexing, etc., the uplink corresponds to the following information: The UL-SCH transport block received within one TTI The maximum number of bits, the maximum number of bits of a single UL-SCH transport block received within one TTI, and so on. The terminal will report the corresponding category to the base station, and the base station will configure the appropriate service rate according to the information reported by the terminal, and perform rate matching according to the soft channel buffer size. The specific information is shown in Table 1 below. The maximum transmission rate in Table 1 is calculated according to the support of 20MHz.

Type 6 51024 51024 No

Type 7 102048 51024 No

Type 8 1497760 149776 Yes

In addition, the capability of the terminal to report itself includes the capability of the terminal to support carrier aggregation. The specific content is to report the frequency band combination of each supported carrier aggregation, and each frequency band combination has an identifier. In the LTE system, the bandwidth supported by each band is not fixed, and some or all of them are supported between 1.4M, 3M, 5M, 10M, 15M, and 20MHz. In the case of carrier aggregation, the terminal reports the frequency band combination of each carrier aggregation. For each combination, the bandwidth set supported by this combination is also reported. If the two frequency bands are supported for aggregation, the following bandwidth is supported for aggregation. 5M+10M , 10M+10M, 15M+10M, etc. If the terminal only supports part of the bandwidth combination of the band combination. In particular, when the terminal does not support the maximum bandwidth combination, that is, when the 20MHz bandwidth combination is not supported, the terminal still reports the user category corresponding to the 20MHz bandwidth, which may cause a certain gap between the user category reported by the terminal and the capability of the terminal itself. Sometimes the terminal The reported user class is much higher than the terminal itself. For example, the soft channel buffer is much larger. The base station can only use the parameters corresponding to the user type reported by the terminal, which will generate unnecessary redundancy and waste, and increase the terminal. the cost of.

10 Table 3-1

The maximum number of layers supported by the space division multiplexing is 2, and the maximum transmission rate of the UE1 supports 147,424 bits. According to the user category classification table, if the terminal calculates and reports the corresponding user type according to the maximum bandwidth of each frequency band, such as 20 MHz, Then, the UE1 reports the user class 6, and the soft channel buffer size corresponding to the class is 3654144 bits.

According to the user category classification table, if the terminal calculates and reports the corresponding user type according to the maximum bandwidth of each frequency band, such as 20 MHz, Then, UE1 reports user class 6, and the corresponding soft channel buffer size is 3654144 bits. If the maximum capacity supported by each frequency band is used, and the user type that meets this capability is reported, this embodiment does not, and the search is higher than this capability. And the user type that is closest to this capability is reported, the user category 4 definition is higher than the maximum transmission rate supported by the terminal, and is closest to the maximum transmission rate supported by the terminal, so UE1 reports user category 4, corresponding soft channel buffer. The area size is 1827072 bits, which is half the cost of user category 6. The maximum transmission rate is smaller than user category 6, saving terminal cost and avoiding waste of resources.
