Description

一种配置DRX和监听控制信道的方法、系统及设备
本申请要求在2013年10月31日提交中国专利局、申请号为201310533502.6、发明名称为“一种配置DRX和监听控制信道的方法、系统及设备”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本发明涉及无线通信技术领域,特别涉及一种配置DRX和监听控制信道的方法、系统及设备。
背景技术
随着越来越多的家庭基站、微小区、中继等众多本地节点的部署,传统的以宏基站为主的网络架构将逐步演变为更多类型基站共存的网络架构,并提供更多层次的网络覆盖。为了改善多类型基站共存网络架构下的相关性能,一种通过非理想链路实现多基站间协作/聚合的网络架构被提出。
在该架构下,用户设备(User Equipment,UE)的一部分承载无线承载(Radio Bearer,RB)在主基站(Master eNB,MeNB)管理的主小区(Master Cell,MCell)上,这部分RB包括控制面信令无线承载(Signaling Radio Bearer,SRB)和用户面数据无线承载(Data Radio Bearer,DRB)。而同一UE的另外一部分承载(包括SRB和DRB)在从属基站(Secondary eNB,SeNB)管理的二级小区(Secondary Cell,SCell)上。
在图1A所示的一种可能的多层网络覆盖环境。在该场景下,UE的多个RB可以分别通过MeNB控制的小区(MCell)和SeNB控制的小区(SCell)分别承载。其中分离到SeNB的RB可以包括DRB和/或SRB。
目前的承载分离架构有两种:
架构1(如图1B所示):
UE在MeNB和SeNB有独立的承载,UE在每个eNB上都有独立的PDCP(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,分组数据汇聚协议)实体。
架构2(如图1C所示):
UE在MeNB上的连接可以有独立的承载。UE在SeNB的连接是将MeNB上的同一个演进分组系统(Evolved Packet System,EPS)承载的一部分数据分流到SeNB上传输,该EPS承载分组数据聚合协议(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,PDCP)实体仍然在MeNB,而SeNB上是有独立的无线链路控制(Radio Link Control,RLC)实体。
在LTE系统中,为了节省了UE的能量,引入了非连续接收(Discontinuous Reception,DRX)机制。即UE在处于连接态的时候,不需要连续的监听eNB的控制信道,而是间断的监听控制信道,参见图1D。其中监听区间(On Duration)表示UE监听控制信道的时间段,期间射频通道打开,并连续监听控制信道。除去On Duration之外的其他时间,UE处于省电状态,其射频链路关闭。On Duration都是周期性出现,具体周期由eNB配置实现。在达到UE省电的同时,为了避免eNB和UE之间的传输时延过大,引入了长周期(Long Cycle)和短周期(Short Cycle)的概念。在Short Cycle中,On Duration出现的比长周期更加频繁。如果UE同时配置了长短周期,在短周期启动后,在短周期的定时器(drxShortCycleTimer)超时后UE再按照长周期进行监听。
在承载分离情况下,由于UE在MeNB和SeNB的DRX配置不一致会导致UE需要监听的时间更多,从而导致UE更加耗电。
综上所述,目前在承载分离的场景中,不能马上为UE配置合理的DRX,从而导致UE需要监听的时间更多,使得UE更加耗电。

具体实施方式
为使本发明实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例是本发明一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本发明保护的范围。
应理解,本发明的技术方案可以应用于各种通信系统,例如:全球移动通讯(Global System of Mobile communication,GSM)系统、码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access,CDMA)系统、宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access,WCDMA)系统、通用分组无线业务(General Packet Radio Service,GPRS)、长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统、先进的长期演进(Advanced long term evolution,LTE-A)系统、通用移动通信系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunication System,UMTS)等。
还应理解,在本发明实施例中,用户设备(UE,User Equipment)包括但不限于移动台(MS,Mobile Station)、移动终端(Mobile Terminal)、移动电话(Mobile Telephone)、手机(handset)及便携设备(portable equipment)等,该用户设备可以经无线接入网(Radio Access Network,RAN)与一个或多个核心网进行通信,例如,用户设备可以是移动电话(或称为“蜂窝”电话)、具有无线通信功能的计算机等,用户设备还可以是便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的或者车载的移动装置。
本发明实施例第一网络侧设备向第二网络侧设备发送辅助信息,以使第二网络侧设备 根据辅助信息为用户设备配置DRX。在承载分离的场景中,第二网络侧设备可以根据辅助信息为用户设备配置DRX,加快了为用户设备配置合理的DRX的时间,从而缩短UE监听的时间,降低UE的耗电量。
此外,现有技术中,在MeNB在承载分离前,MeNB可能之前并没有配置DRX(由于MeNB上有多个承载,有些承载的数据发送是持续的,而有些承载的数据发送是间歇的)。但是MeNB分离到SeNB的承载是稀发的数据(即间隔传输的数据),从而导致SeNB必须要经过一段时间的业务发包统计才能给UE配置合理的DRX配置,这会导致UE更加耗电,而且多次配置DRX也会消耗额外的信令。
本发明实施例给UE配置合理的DRX之前不会给UE配置DRX或只配置一次或几次(由于给UE配置合理的DRX的时间比现有技术缩短很多,所以本发明实施例配置多次相比现有技术也会减少配置的次数),从而进一步降低UE的耗电,减小额外的信令消耗。
如图2A所示,本发明实施例配置DRX的系统包括:第一网络侧设备10、第二网络侧设备20和用户设备30。
第一网络侧设备10,用于确定针对用户设备的辅助信息,向第二网络侧设备发送辅助信息;
第二网络侧设备20,用于接收来自第一网络侧设备的针对用户设备的辅助信息,根据辅助信息为用户设备配置DRX;
用户设备30,用于接收第二网络侧设备配置的DRX,根据配置的DRX监听控制信道;
其中,用户设备分离后的承载一部分在第二网络侧设备上。
本发明实施例的第一网络侧设备是MeNB或OAM(Operation Administration and Maintenance,运行和维护)设备,第二网络侧设备是SeNB;或
本发明实施例的第一网络侧设备是SeNB,第二网络侧设备是MeNB。
如果第一网络侧设备是MeNB或SeNB,则用户设备分离后的承载一部分在第二网络侧设备上,另一部分在第一网络侧设备上。
在实施中,辅助信息包括但不限于下列信息中的部分或全部:
用户设备的服务小区所属的基站最近一次为用户设备配置DRX的信息,若第一网络侧设备为MeNB或SeNB,则这里的用户设备的服务小区所属的基站为MeNB或SeNB;
用户设备的服务小区所属的基站确定的第二网络侧设备为用户设备配置DRX的信息,若第一网络侧设备为MeNB或SeNB,则这里的用户设备的服务小区所属的基站为MeNB或SeNB;
分离到第二网络侧设备的承载相关的业务的特性信息。
下面分别进行介绍。
方式一、辅助信息包括第一网络侧设备最近一次为用户设备配置DRX的信息。
具体的,第一网络侧设备将用户设备的服务小区所属的基站最近一次为用户设备配置DRX的信息作为辅助信息,比如第一网络侧设备可以根据用户设备在第一网络侧设备上的数据发包间隔等配置用户设备在第一网络侧设备上的DRX;
相应的,若第二网络侧设备已为用户设备配置DRX,且配置的DRX的On Duration与用户设备的服务小区所属的基站最近一次为用户设备配置DRX的信息对应的On Duration的重合时间段小于设定时间段,或第二网络侧设备没有为用户设备配置DRX,则为用户设备配置DRX,以使配置后的DRX的On Duration与用户设备的服务小区所属的基站最近一次为用户设备配置DRX的信息对应的On Duration的重合时间段不小于设定时间段。
也就是说,第二网络侧设备在接收到第一网络侧设备的DRX配置后,如果第二网络侧设备发现之前给用户设备配置的DRX的On Duration和接收到的第一网络侧设备的DRX的On Duration的重合区间比较少或没有重合区间,或者第二网络侧设备还没有给用户设备配置在第二网络侧设备上的DRX,则第二网络侧设备调整用户设备在第二网络侧设备的DRX配置的On Duration的区间(或配置DRX),使得用户设备在第二网络侧设备的DRX的On Duration和在第一网络侧设备的DRX的On Duration的重合区间尽量增加,从而减少用户设备在两个eNB上总体的监听时间,达到节电的目的。
较佳地,第二网络侧设备调整UE在第二网络侧设备上的On Duration区间,可以通过调整DRX的配置参数实现,包括长DRX周期和短DRX周期的相关参数(如,On Duration的长度onDurationTimer;UE的非激活定时器的大小drx-InactivityTimer;DRX的重传定时器drx-RetransmissionTimer;DRX的起止时刻longDRX-CycleStartOffset;短DRX周期的长度shortDRX-Cycle;短周期的总时长drxShortCycleTimer;其他相关参数)。DRX调整方式和节省的监听时间部分可以参见图2B。
方式二、辅助信息包括用户设备的服务小区所属的基站确定的第二网络侧设备为用户设备配置DRX的信息。
具体的,第一网络侧设备将用户设备的服务小区所属的基站确定的第二网络侧设备为用户设备配置DRX的信息作为辅助信息;
其中,服务小区所属的基站确定的配置DRX的信息是根据与分离到第二网络侧设备的承载相关的业务的特性信息确定的。
在实施中,服务小区所属的基站在将承载分离到目标基站的过程中,根据分离承载(一个或多个承载)的业务特性,生成与分离承载(一个或多个承载)相关的DRX配置。
其中,根据业务包(如IP包)的特性设置DRX的方式,可以参见图2C所示。由于不同的业务的数据包到达基站有不同的间隔(interval),因此基站可以根据第二网络侧设备需要传输给用户设备的业务包的发包特性(比如发包间隔),给用户设备配置一套DRX 配置。基站只在用户设的On Duration期间给用户设发送数据,而用户设只在On Duration期间监控控制信道,从而可以以达到使UE节电的目的。
相应的,第二网络侧设备根据第一网络侧设备推荐的DRX配置和UE在第二网络侧设备的实际空口需求为UE配置DRX。
比如,第一网络侧设备当前的空口子帧配置的上下行是每10个子帧中前3个是上行子帧,后7个是下行子帧。第一网络侧设备在将承载分离到第二网络侧设备的时候,根据根据业务包的特性,在其自身的7个下行子帧位置配置DRX的On Duration,如将后7个下行子针的后5个子帧配置成On Duration。
相应的,第二网络侧设备当前的空口子帧配置的上下行是每10个子帧中前7个是上行子帧,后3个是下行子帧。由于第二网络侧设备无法根据接收的DRX配置将10个子帧中的后5个子帧配置成On Duration,则第二网络侧设备可以根据自己实际的空口子帧配置,调整DRX的On Duration,将后3个子帧配置成On Duration。
这里是以实际空口需求为空口子帧配置为例进行说明,并不代表本发明实施例的实际空口需求只是空口子帧配置。本发明实施例的第二网络侧设备可以根据任何实际空口需求以及第一网络侧设备推荐的DRX配置为UE配置DRX。比如实际空口需求还可以是:UE的空口信道质量;小区的负载等。
方式三、辅助信息包括分离到第二网络侧设备的承载相关的业务的特性信息。
具体的,第一网络侧设备将与分离到第二网络侧设备的承载相关的业务的历史发包间隔信息作为特性信息;和/或
第一网络侧设备将与分离到第二网络侧设备的承载相关的业务的策略信息作为特性信息(这里的策略信息可以在第一网络侧设备需要的时候随时调整,并在调整后发送给第二网络侧设备。如第一网络侧设备负载增加,而第二网络侧设备负载较轻,则第一网络侧设备可以调整以更密集的发包间隔发送数据到第二网络侧设备)。
其中,业务的策略信息包括业务的QoS(Quality of Service)服务质量信息和/或业务的预测发包间隔信息。
相应的,第二网络侧设备根据辅助信息确定用户设备的接收时间间隔;根据确定的接收时间间隔,为用户设备配置DRX。
其中,特性信息如果包括历史发包间隔信息,则根据历史发包间隔信息可以确定接收时间间隔。比如第二网络侧设备根据历史发包间隔预先设定未来的数据调度传输时间,在数据包到达第二网络侧设备后,第二网络侧设备只在预先设定的传输时间调度数据传输。
特性信息如果包括业务的预测发包间隔信息,则根据历史发包间隔信息可以确定接收时间间隔。比如第二网络侧设备根据预测发包间隔信息预先设定未来的数据调度传输时间,在数据包到达第二网络侧设备后,第二网络侧设备只在预先设定的传输时间调度数据 传输。
特性信息如果包括QoS信息,则根据QoS信息可以确定接收时间间隔。比如图2D所示,用户设备业务数据到达基站的间隔可能比较短(如10ms),如果基站按照IP包到达的时刻在空口调度传输,可能导致无法设置DRX,从而无法给UE省电。如果业务数据的QoS时延要求是100ms,则基站可以延迟到达IP包的空口调度传输时刻(如图延迟30ms,或更多),并根据传输IP包的到达间隔时刻,确定接收时间间隔,则可以在保证QoS需求的同时,给UE配置DRX来省电。
针对第一网络侧设备是MeNB或SeNB,本发明实施例还提供一种判断是否发送辅助信息的方案,即先由第一网络侧设备进行判断,如果需要发送,则向第二网络侧设备发送辅助信息,这样的好处是节省不必要的辅助信息的发送。
具体的,第一网络侧设备在确定需要向第二网络侧设备发送辅助信息后,向第二网络侧设备发送辅助信息。
第一网络侧设备判断是否需要向第二网络侧设备发送辅助信息的方式有很多种,下面列举几种:
判断方式一、第一网络侧设备根据用户设备在第一网络侧设备的承载的QoS和在第二网络侧设备的承载的QoS,判断是否需要向第二网络侧设备发送辅助信息。
比如根据QoS确定需要传输的业务是否是对时延要求不敏感的业务(时延要求不敏感的业务可以在接收到下行数据的时候延长其空口的调度传输时间),如果是,则确定需要发送,否则确定不需要发送;
还比如根据QoS确定需要传输的业务是否丢包率比较高的业务丢包率比较高的业务可以在接收到下行数据的时候延长其空口的调度传输时间),如果是,则确定需要发送,否则确定不需要发送。
判断方式二、第一网络侧设备根据用户设备的接收机信息,判断是否需要向第二网络侧设备发送辅助信息。
方式二中,用户设备向第一网络侧设备上报用户设备的接收机信息。
接收机信息包括但不限于下列信息中的部分或全部:
接收机能力指示信息,比如接收机能力指示信息表示用户设备能通过多协调接收机间的DRX参数减少能耗,则确定需要发送;还比如接收机能力指示信息表示用户设备电池电量过低,则确定需要发送;
接收机数量信息,比如接收机数量信息表示只有一个接收机同时用于多个载波的监听,则确定需要发送。
如果用户设备能通过多协调接收机间的DRX参数减少能耗,则确定需要向第二网络侧设备发送辅助信息;
如果用户设备只有一个接收机同时用于多个载波的接收或监听,则确定向第二网络侧设备发送辅助信息;
如果用户设备电池电量过低,则确定需要向第二网络侧设备发送辅助信息。
