Description

一种信道接入方法及站点 技术领域
本发明涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种信道接入方法及站点。
背景技术
在通信系统中,每个站点(Station,STA)都是通过频谱资源将信号发送给其他STA。若在一个通信系统中,STA可以同时接收和发送信号,则该通信系统称为全双工系统。然而,STA发送的信号可能会干扰自己接收的信号,因袭,需要对该STA进行干扰消除,这样,增加了成本。为了降低消除干扰的成本,通过采用半双工系统进行信号传输,即STA可以时分接入,即一段时间内发送信号,而在另一段时间内切换为接收信号。
在半双工系统的无线局域网(Wireless Local Area Network,WLAN)中,一组相互通信的STA称为一个基本服务集合(Basic Service Set,BSS),一个BSS可以作为一个小区,每个BSS中的有一个STA为接入点(Access Point,AP),其它STA通过该AP与外部网络相连。
BSS中每个STA可以使用一个单位带宽为基本带宽粒度进行信道接入,当STA可以使用多个单位带宽时,STA可以选择部分单位带宽进行信道接入,该BSS称为多信道系统。在多信道系统中,AP会指定一个单位带宽为主信道,其余的单位带宽为辅信道。
在现有技术中,STA在不发送数据包时,对主信道进行虚拟载波侦听和物理载波侦听,并对辅信道进行物理载波侦听。其中,虚拟载波侦听的过程为:当主信道正在传输物理层协议数据单元(Physical Protocol Data Unit,PPDU)时,该STA根据该PPDU中包含的前导码,获取该PPDU的发送方和接收方,在确定该STA所属BSS中的AP是该PPDU的发送方/接收方,确定主信道的状态为忙,否则确定主信道的状态为闲,在确定主信道的状态为忙后,该STA将进行退避,避免因该AP处于发送状态而无法接收该STA的 信号,或该AP处于接收其它STA发送的该PPDU,而无法接收该STA的信号;物理载波侦听的过程为:检测各个信道上前导码的信号强度或时域循环特性因子,若某信道的前导码的信号强度或时域循环特性因子高于设定门限,则确定该信道的状态为忙,否则确定该信道的状态为闲。
现有的信道接入方法中,通常使用单信道接入和退避规则,即选择一个特定的信道(主信道)进行退避决策,即对主信道进行上述虚拟载波侦听和物理载波侦听,STA确定向该STA所属BSS中的目标AP发送的数据后,判定主信道的中被PPDU占用,状态为忙,且在确定该STA所属BSS中的AP是该PPDU的发送方/接收方,则生成随机退避值,并继续对主信道进行物理载波侦听,若判定主信道的状态仍为忙,则该退避值不变;若判定主信道的状态为闲,则退避值减少一个单位值,直至该退避值为0时,该STA进行对目标AP进行数据发送。
然而,参阅图1所示,采用以上方法进行信道接入时,仅依靠主信道ch1进行虚拟载波侦听和物理载波侦听,在虚拟载波侦听方面:若其它BSS2中的AP2向STA1发送的PPDU2干扰了本BSS1中AP1向STA1发送的PPDU1时,则该STA1无法正确解码主信道ch1上PPDU1的前导码,进而无法确定AP1是否为PPDU1的发送方/接收方,则判定主信道的状态为闲;在物理载波侦听方面,若来自AP1的PPDU1中前导码的信号强度为-75dBm,来自AP2的PPDU2中前导码的信号强度为-77dBm,两者之和的小于设定门限-62dBm,则判定主信道的状态为闲。这样,导致该STA尝试接入信道,向AP1发送数据,但是由于实际上主信道的状态为忙,AP1正在发送PPDU1,因此,AP1发送的PPDU1会干扰该STA向AP1发送的数据,导致AP1无法接收该STA发送的数据。
显然,现有技术中的信道接入方法,STA会对信道的状态进行误判,导致抢占信道,进而使传输的数据被干扰,降低了数据传输准确性。

具体实施方式
为了使本发明的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本发明作进一步地详细描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅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做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其它实施例,都属于本发明保护的范围。
本发明实施例提供一种信道接入方法及STA,用以解决现有技术中存在的STA对信道的状态进行误判,导致抢占信道,进而使传输的数据被干扰, 降低数据传输准确性的问题。其中,方法和装置是基于同一发明构思的,由于方法及装置解决问题的原理相似,因此装置与方法的实施可以相互参见,重复之处不再赘述。
在现有技术中,STA对主信道进行虚拟载波侦听和物理载波侦听,对主信道的状态进行误判,在主信道的状态为忙时,根据上述侦听结果判定该主信道的状态为闲,导致STA向AP发送数据,导致主信道正在发送的数据会干扰该STA向AP发送的数据,降低了该数据传输的准确性;而采用本发明技术方案,STA在生成向所归属的第一BSS中第一AP发送的待发送数据后,对所述第一AP指示的多个信道进行侦听,当在任一个进行侦听的信道中侦听到PPDU的前导码后,对所述前导码进行解码,获得前导码(即物理层包头部)中包含的BSS标识,或者,接收方地址和发送方地址,以及测量对该前导码的信号强度;最终根据获得的BSS标识以及该前导码的信号强度,或者,根据获得的接收方地址和发送方地址,以及该前导码的信号强度,将待发送数据发送至第一AP,这样,根据前导码中包含的BSS标识,或者,接收方地址和发送方地址,以及该前导码的信号强度,可以提高对信道状态判断的准确率,从而降低了STA抢占信道产生冲突的概率,避免造成传输的数据被干扰,提高了数据传输准确率和信道接入的效率。
本发明实施例提供了一种信道接入方法及STA,适用于WLAN系统中,参阅图2所示,在WLAN系统中,一个BSS的架构包括一个AP 201,以及至少一个STA 202,其中AP 201和STA 202之间通过无线通信。
其中,AP 201也称为无线访问接入点或桥接器或热点等,可以接入服务器或通信网络,STA 202通过AP 201与接入服务器或通信网络交换语音、视频等通信数据;
STA 202可以是无线传感器、无线通信终端或移动终端,如支持无线保真(Wireless Fidelity,WIFI)通讯功能的移动电话、具有无线通信功能的计算机等。
下面结合附图对本发明优选的实施方式进行详细说明。
本发明实施例提供的一种信道接入方法,可以但不限于在WLAN网络、长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)网络或长期演进未授权系统(LTE-Unlicensed,LTE-U)中使用。参阅图3所示,该方法的具体流程包括:
步骤301:STA接收该STA归属的第一BSS中第一接入点AP发送的AP指示,所述AP指示信息中携带至少一个信道标识。
具体的,第一AP会向所归属的第一BSS中的每个STA发送该STA对应的AP指示信息,AP指示信息中包含传输涉及的至少一个信道的信道标识。STA根据接收到的AP指示信息中传输涉及的信道进行数据传输。
步骤302:该STA生成向第一AP发送的待发送数据后,对该至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道进行侦听。
其中,待发送数据为数据包或信令,如请求发送帧(Request to send,RTS)、清除发送帧(Clear to send,CTS)、关联请求、带宽请求等。
在该STA生成需要向第一AP发送的待发送数据后,需要在AP指示信息中传输涉及的信道进行物理载波侦听和虚拟载波侦听。物理载波侦听可包括信号能量检测、正交频分复用(OFDM,Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)符号的循环特性检测中的一种或多种。由于极高吞吐量的PPDU(Very High Throughput PPDU,VHT PPDU)或高效的PPDU(High efficient PPDU,HE PPDU)等OFDM符号包含循环前缀(Cyclic Prefix,CP),在时间上具有循环重复特性。具体的该STA可以持续对传输涉及的每个信道进行信道侦听,或者,在非数据发送状态下进行侦听,或者,在非数据接收且非前导码接收状态下进行侦听。
其中,该STA生成向第一AP发送的待发送数据后,执行退避之前,还包括:生成退避计数值,具体的,可以根据以下条件生成该退避计数值:
第一种条件:在该STA与第一AP未在该至少一个信道标识中约定一个信道标识对应的信道为主信道时,测量该至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数,根据测量的该信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数,确定该信道标识对应的信道的状态;在确定该至少一个信道标识中 的每个信道标识对应的信道的状态均为忙时,生成退避计数值,其中,干扰信号参数为干扰功率强度、信号能量、正交频分复用OFDM符号循环特性中任一项或组合;或者
第二种条件:在该STA与第一AP在该至少一个信道标识中约定一个信道标识对应的信道为主信道时,测量该主信道的干扰信号参数,根据测量的主信道的干扰信号参数,确定该主信道的状态;在确定该主信道的状态均为忙时,生成退避计数值,其中,干扰信号参数为干扰功率强度、信号能量、OFDM符号循环特性中任一项或组合;或者
第三种条件:在确定获得的该BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识相同,且该前导码的信号强度大于设定的第一信号强度阈值时,生成退避计数值;或者
第四种条件:在确定获得的BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识不同,且该前导码的信号强度大于设定的第二信号强度阈值时,生成退避计数值。
根据测量的该信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数,确定该信道标识对应的信道的状态,包括:
若该信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数中任一项大于该项对应的设定阈值时,确定该信道标识对应的信道的状态为忙;否则,确定该信道标识对应的信道的状态为闲;
根据测量的主信道的干扰信号参数,确定该主信道的状态,包括:
若该主信道的干扰信号参数中任一项大于该项对应的设定阈值时,确定该主信道的状态为忙;否则,确定该主信道的状态为闲。
其中,该STA与第一AP约定的主信道用于传输控制帧和管理帧。
生成退避计数值还包括:该至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道均处于前导码接收状态,即传输涉及的信道均可能被占用,第一AP可能正在进行数据传输,生成退避计数值。
在解码前导码后,还包括:获得该前导码中包含的占用信道的第一时长。STA根据该第一时长,设定信道占用时间的计时器。在该信道占用时间的计 时器为非空闲状态时,表示信道或第一AP较忙,停止退避,直至该信道占用时间的计时器超时,此时转换成空闲状态,可以进行退避,并在退避完成时,进行信道接入。
因此,在退避计数值生成的第三种和第四种条件中,还包括:信道占用时间的计时器为非空闲状态。
退避计数值用于STA执行退避,在经过单位退避时间后,确定退避自减值,并将当前的退避计数值减去退避自减值,生成新的退避计数值,直至确定退避计数值为0,STA才能向第一AP发送待发送数据,该退避自减值可以是预先设定的单位自减值,或者根据当前时刻的实际场景确定的。
根据当前时刻的实际场景确定退避自减值的方法包括:
当前时刻侦听到的处于空闲状态下的信道数量作为退避自减值。
步骤303:该STA在任意一个信道标识对应的信道,侦听到PPDU的前导码后,对该前导码进行解码,获得该前导码中包含的BSS标识;并测量该前导码的信号强度。
在任意一个信道标识对应的信道,侦听到PPDU的前导码后,对该前导码进行解码,还可以获得该前导码中包含的占用信道的第一时长,即传输时间信息。该传输时间信息可以是单个PPDU传输时长,也可以是若干STA间多个PPDU交互所需的时长,对于WLAN网络,可以是网络分配矢量(Network Allocation Vector,NAV)信息,该NAV信息中包含有传输所述PPDU占用信道的时长。STA根据该第一时长,设定信道占用时间的计时器。
具体的,该PPDU的前导码中包含的BSS标识,为发送该PPDU的STA或AP所归属的BSS的BSS标识。
BSS标识可以为由AP的MAC地址生成的用于标识本BSS的bit序列,也可以为AP随机选择的用于标识本BSS的bit序列,或AP根据周围BSS的bit序列选择的用于标识本BSS的bit序列,该bit序列被称为BSS Color。
具体的,可以采用物理载波侦听的方式测量前导码的信道强度。
在侦听到PPDU时,确定该任意一个信道为前导码接收状态,此时停止 退避,即退避计数值即使经过单位退避时间,仍然不发生变化。
步骤304:该STA根据获得的所述BSS标识以及所述前导码的信号强度,将所述待发送数据发送至所述第一AP。
具体的,在执行步骤304时,具体包括以下两种方式:
第一种方式:在确定获得的该BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识相同,且该前导码的信号强度大于设定的第一信号强度阈值时,进行数据接收,并在数据接收完成后,执行退避,退避完成后,基于该至少一个信道标识对应的信道,将待发送数据发送至第一AP,第一信号强度阈值为在BSS内避免信号干扰的信号强度经验值;或者
第二种方式:在确定获得的该BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识不同,且该前导码的信道强度大于设定的第二信号强度阈值时,执行退避,退避完成后,基于该至少一个信道标识对应的信道,将待发送数据发送至第一AP,第二信号强度阈值为在BSS间避免信号干扰的信号强度经验值。
其中,该BSS标识可以为BSS Color。
若前导码后包含有效载荷,将根据前导码指示进行后续的有效载荷的接收;若前导码指示了后续的有效载荷用于上行传输(发送给AP)的资源分配,则STA将根据该指示在所分配的资源(在频域维度为子载波或子信道或信道,在空域为空间波束方向或波束成形方向)进行上行数据发送;
若所分配的资源为随机竞争资源,或其中部分资源为随机竞争资源,STA可在该随机竞争资源上进行随机接入,即发送随机竞争数据。STA可按随机竞争资源接入规则来决定是否在随机竞争资源上发送随机竞争数据。随机竞争资源接入规则可以是STA的退避计数值进行自减。自减值可为固定值。自减值也可根据随机竞争资源中用于资源个数动态决定,如资源单元(Resource Unit,RU),或子信道个数,或信道个数。自减值动态决定的方法为,自减值可为资源个数值。
进一步,前导码可指示前导码所在的信道的资源分配,或者,前导码可指示前导码所在的信道和其他信道上的资源分配。
STA可根据随机竞争资源位于信道在前导码之前的约定时间段(例如PIFS时间)内的忙闲状态决定是否进行上行发送或退避。STA可根据协议规定或与AP的约定忽略前导码之前的约定时间段(例如PIFS时间)内的忙闲状态。
若STA可根据随机竞争资源位于信道在前导码之前的约定时间段(例如PIFS时间)内的忙闲状态决定是否进行上行发送或退避。若信道在前导码之前的约定时间段(例如PIFS时间)内的为忙,STA不进行退避,即不进行退避计数值更新。STA可不上行发送,避免对其他占用信道的传输的干扰。反之,若信道在前导码之前的约定时间段(例如PIFS时间)内的为闲,STA进行退避计数值更新,若退避计数值自减到0则进行上行随机接入。
前导码指示资源的方式可以为分3步指示,第一步指示每一段(AP指示信息的若干个信道的集合,例如多个20MHz信道的集合)是否有传输。STA在有传输的每一段内做第二步的指示信息接收。第二步指示信息包含了每个信道内是否有第三步指示信息,及第三步指示信息的传输编码方式。STA根据第二步指示信息做第三步指示信息接收。第三步指示信息包含了数据载荷的所在子信道信息。对于下行传输,第三步指示信息还可包含了数据载荷的传输编码方式。
第二步指示信息可包含子信道信息分配的STA的ID指示。这样STA解码到第二步指示信息后,若第二步指示信息中的STA的ID指示未包含该STA的ID,STA可以忽略第三步指示信息。若STA有上行随机接入数据,且STA的ID指示包含上行随机接入ID(例如AID为全0bit,或全1bit),STA可以接收第三步指示信息。
第二步指示信息也可不包含STA的ID指示,由第三步指示信息进行STA的ID指示。
STA的ID可为STA的AID、或小组ID。STA可以属于一个或多个小组。也可以不属于任何小组。
在第一种方式中,确定获得的BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识相同,且 该前导码的信号强度大于设定的第一信号强度阈值时,确定该PPDU与STA相关,即该PPDU的接收方是该STA,而发送方即为第一AP,显然,STA不能在任何一个信道传输,否则会造成数据干扰,此时,在第一时长内,将传输涉及的所有信道标记为小区内传输导致信道忙状态,例如,homeBusy状态,且该STA停止退避,该STA需要接收信道中的PPDU。在接收完成后,继续执行退避,并在退避结束后,将待发送数据发送至第一AP。其中,设置第一信号强度阈值为了在一个BSS内,在第一AP参与数据传输时,避免冲突。
在第二种方式中,确定获得的该BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识不同,且该前导码的信道强度大于设定的第二信号强度阈值时,确定该PPDU与该STA不相关,即该PPDU为其它BSS中的STA或AP发送的,此时,在第一时长内,将该前导码指示PPDU中有效载荷所在的信道标识为小区间传输导致信道忙状态,例如,nonhomeBusy状态,在传输涉及的信道中有部分信道为nonhomeBusy状态时,STA继续执行退避,直至退避计数值为0时,退避完成,在传输涉及的全部信道,或传输涉及的全部信道中处于空闲状态的信道向第一AP发送待发送数据。
参阅图4所示,例如,STA在信道3中侦听到PPDU的前导码后,判定该前导码包含的BSS标识与该STA的第一BSS的BSS标识相同,且该前导码的信号强度大于设定的第一信号强度阈值,此时,STA确定该PPDU与自身相关,因此,先进行数据接收,在数据接收完成后,继续执行退避,在退避完成时,向第一AP传输数据;参阅图5所示,例如,STA在信道3中侦听到PPDU的前导码后,判定该前导码包含的BSS标识与该STA的第一BSS的BSS标识相同,且该前导码的信号强度大于设定的第二信号强度阈值,此时,STA确定该PPDU与自身不相关,因此,需要继续执行退避,在退避完成时,向第一AP传输数据。
具体的,在第一种方式中,进行数据接收,包括:
在第一时长内,根据该PPDU中的有效载荷,进行数据接收。具体的,该PPDU的前导码中指示了PPDU的有效载荷中包含数据包的长度、调制方 式、信道编码方式、空间多天线传输模式、频域资源分配方式等,因此,可以根据该PPDU中的前导码指示的有效载荷中的内容,进行数据接收。
具体的,在第一种方式、以及第二种方式中,在该STA与第一AP未在该至少一个信道标识中约定一个信道标识对应的信道为主信道时,执行退避,退避完成,包括:
继续周期性测量该至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数,根据测量的该信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数,确定该信道标识对应的信道的状态;
在确定该至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道的状态均为忙时,在经过单位退避时间后,退避计数值不变;
在确定该至少一个信道标识中包含的信道标识对应的信道的状态均为闲时,确定状态为闲的信道的数目,并根据该数目,生成退避自减值,在经过单位退避时间后,退避计数值减少所述退避自减值,生成新的退避计数值;继续周期性测量该至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数,根据测量的该信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数,确定该信道标识对应的信道的状态,直至所述退避计数值为0,退避完成。
对于约定主信道的系统:
在所述STA与所述第一AP在所述至少一个信道标识中约定一个信道标识对应的信道为主信道时,执行退避,退避完成,包括:
继续周期性测量所述主信道的干扰信号参数,根据测量的该主信道的干扰信号参数,确定该主信道的状态;
在确定所述主信道的状态为忙时,在经过单位退避时间后,退避计数值不变;
在确定所述主信道的状态为闲时,在经过单位退避时间后,退避计数值减少设定退避自减值,生成新的退避计数值;继续周期性测量所述主信道的干扰信号参数,根据测量的该主信道的干扰信号参数,确定该主信道的状态,直至所述退避计数值为0,退避完成。
例如,在STA与第一AP未约定主信道时,当前退避计数值为15,确定当前状态为闲的信道数目为2,则退避自减值为2,经过单位退避时间后,退避计数值更新为15-2=13。
在步骤302,STA需要对至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道进行侦听,这就需要STA对最大传输带宽内包含的所有信道均可以做前导码检测,因此,在具体实现中,STA需要部署大量的前导码检测器,前导码检测器可以为软件实现,也可以为硬件实现,在通过硬件实现时,由于需要数目较大,因此,在保证侦听效率的同时,降低硬件成本,降低前导码检测器的数量。
可选的,AP指示信息中还携带有至少一个监测信道信息,其中,每个监测信道信息中包含一个监测信道、该监测信道所在频段、该监测信道的优先级,每个监测信息中的监测信道的优先级不同,每个监测信息中的监测信道所在频段不同。
在步骤302,STA对至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道进行侦听,包括:
确定该至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道所在频段;
根据该至少一个监测信道信息,确定每个信道标识对应的信道所在频段对应的监测信道,以及该监测信道的优先级;
在确定的监测信道的优先级中,筛选出最低的优先级为第一优先级;
在所有监测信道中,筛选出优先级高于第一优先级的监测信道;
对筛选出的每个监测信道进行侦听,将侦听结果作为处于该检测信道所在频段内的信道的侦听结果。
为了降低成本,降低前导码检测器的数量,同时提高侦听效率,在本实施例中,在前导码出现概率较高的信道中部署前导码检测器。
在本实施例中,第一AP与STA协商了信道绑定(Channel Bound,CB)模式(Mode),如图6所示,对最大传输带宽划分为若干个频段,每个频段对应一个监测信道,同时为每个监测信道设定优先级,确定第一AP指示信息传 输涉及的至少一个信道中,信道所在的频段,并根据确定的频段确定对应的监测信道,在确定的监测信道中,筛选出优先级最低的监测信道,对优先级高于该最低优先级的所有监测信道进行侦听。如,将80MHz的信道分为两个40MHz的频段,每个频段分为两个20MHz的信道,第一频段中设置对应的监测信道1,第二频段设置对应的监测信道2,其中,监测信道1的优先级高于监测信道2,若第一AP指示信息采用CB Mode6表示,传输涉及的信道为第一频段内的两个信道,以及第二频段内的第一个信道,STA在对传输涉及的三个信道进行侦听时,只侦听监测信道1和监测信道2,并将监测信道1的侦听结果作为第一频段内所有传输涉及的信道的侦听结果。
参阅图7所示,每个STA的物理架构包括:天线阵列、无线射频(Radio Frequency,RF)链、CCA检测器、前导码检测器,RF链包括带通滤波器,低噪放大器、下变频器,模数变换器等,RF链输出的信号供CCA检测器检测,以及前导码检测器检测,RF链输出的信号还将输出的数字信号输入到基站接收单元等进行处理,在本实施例中,为每个RF链设置一个前导码检测器,以实现,STA对传输涉及的每个信道进行侦听。
基于图7中STA的物理架构,在执行步骤302,STA通过对每个频段中监测信道进行侦听,实现对传输涉及的每个信道进行侦听,还可以通过以下方式,对传输涉及的每个信道进行侦听,以减少前导码检测器的数量:
设置每个RF链中的模数变换器可以接收多个信道上的信号;或者
划分多个频段,为每个RF链中的模数变换器设置一个对应的频段;
STA对每个RF链分配的信道进行调度,如STA通过SM power Saving模式的信令,上报AP该STA在各个信道计划重配置后所支持的空间复用能力,在收到AP的正确应答指令(ACKnowledge,ACK)后,STA为每个RF链配置对应的信道。例如,STA在数据传输时,有三个RF链在信道1上接受/发送数据,在数据传输完成后,为提高多信道效率,STA将三个RF链分配到不同监测信道,这样,在单个监测信道上支持的空间流数下降,STA需要把减弱的空间复用能力报告给AP。
采用本发明实施例提供的信道接入方法,STA对第一BSS中第一AP指示信息的传输涉及的信道进行侦听,在任意一个信道侦听到PPDU的前导码后,根据前导码中的包含BSS标识以及该前导码的信道强度,将待发送数据发送至第一AP,可以准确的提高对信道状态的判断准确率,从而降低STA抢占信道产生冲突的概率,避免造成传输的数据被干扰,提高了数据传输准确率和信道接入效率。
本发明实施例提供的另一种信道接入方法,可以但不限于在WLAN网络、LTE网络或LTE-U中使用。参阅图8所示,该方法的具体流程包括:
步骤801:STA接收该STA归属的第一BSS中第一接入点AP发送的AP指示信息,所述AP指示信息中携带至少一个信道标识。
具体的,第一AP会向所归属的第一BSS中的每个STA发送该STA对应的AP指示信息,AP指示信息包含信道绑定模式,即传输涉及的至少一个信道的信道标识。STA根据接收到的AP中传输涉及的信道进行数据传输。
步骤802:该STA生成向第一AP发送的待发送数据后,对该至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道进行侦听。
其中待发送数据为数据包或信令,如RTS、CTS等。
在该STA生成需要向第一AP发送的待发送数据后,需要在AP指示信息中携带的传输涉及的信道进行物理载波侦听和虚拟载波侦听。具体的该STA可以持续对传输涉及的每个信道进行信道侦听,或者,在非数据发送状态下进行侦听,或者,在非数据接收且非前导码接收状态下进行侦听。
其中,该STA生成向第一AP发送的待发送数据后,执行退避之前,还包括:
在所述STA与所述第一AP未在所述至少一个信道标识中约定一个信道标识对应的信道为主信道时,测量所述至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数,根据测量的该信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数,确定该信道标识对应的信道的状态;在确定所述至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道的状态均为忙时,生成退避计数值,其中,干扰 信号参数为干扰功率强度、信号能量、正交频分复用OFDM符号循环特性中任一项或组合;或者
在所述STA与所述第一AP在所述至少一个信道标识中约定一个信道标识对应的信道为主信道时,测量所述主信道的干扰信号参数,根据测量的主信道的干扰信号参数,确定该主信道的状态;在确定所述主信道的状态均为忙时,生成退避计数值,其中,干扰信号参数为干扰功率强度、信号能量、OFDM符号循环特性中任一项或组合;或者
在确定获得的接收方地址和发送方地址中包含所述STA的地址或所述第一AP的地址,且所述前导码的信号强度大于设定的第一信号强度阈值时,生成退避计数值;或者
在确定获得的接收方地址和发送方地址中不包含所述STA的地址,且不包含所述第一AP的地址,且所述前导码的信号强度大于设定的第二信号强度阈值时,生成退避计数值。
根据测量的该信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数,确定该信道标识对应的信道的状态,包括:
若该信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数中任一项大于该项对应的设定阈值时,确定该信道标识对应的信道的状态为忙;否则,确定该信道标识对应的信道的状态为闲;
根据测量的主信道的干扰信号参数,确定该主信道的状态,包括:
若该主信道的干扰信号参数中任一项大于该项对应的设定阈值时,确定该主信道的状态为忙;否则,确定该主信道的状态为闲。
退避计数值用于STA执行退避,在经过单位退避时间后,确定退避自减值,并将当前的退避计数值减去退避自减值,生成新的退避计数值,直至确定退避计数值为0,STA才能向第一AP发送待发送数据,该退避自减值可以是预先设定的单位自减值,或者根据当前时刻的实际场景确定的。
步骤803:该STA在任意一个信道标识对应的信道,侦听到PPDU的前导码后,对该前导码进行解码,获得该前导码中包含的接收方地址和发送方 地址;并测量该前导码的信号强度。
在任意一个信道标识对应的信道,侦听到PPDU的前导码后,对该前导码进行解码,还可以获得该前导码中包含的网络分配矢量(Network Allocation Vector,NAV)信息,该NAV信息中包含有传输所述PPDU占用信道的第一时长。
具体的,可以采用物理载波侦听的方式测量前导码的信道强度。
在侦听到PPDU时,确定该任意一个信道为前导码接收状态,此时停止退避,即退避计数值即使经过单位退避时间,仍然不发生变化。
步骤804:该STA根据获得的接收方地址和发送方地址以及所述前导码的信号强度,将所述待发送数据发送至所述第一AP。
具体的,在执行步骤104时,具体包括以下两种方式:
第一种方式:在确定获得的接收方地址和发送方地址中包含该STA的地址或第一AP的地址,且该前导码的信号强度大于设定的第一信号强度阈值时,进行数据接收,并在数据接收完成后,执行退避,退避完成后,基于该至少一个信道标识对应的信道,将待发送数据发送至第一AP,第一信号强度阈值为在BSS内避免信号干扰的信号强度经验值;或者
第二种方式:在确定获得的接收方地址和发送方地址中不包含该STA的地址,且不包含第一AP的地址,且该前导码的信道强度大于设定的第二信号强度阈值时,执行退避,退避完成后,基于该至少一个信道标识对应的信道,将待发送数据发送至第一AP,第二信号强度阈值为在BSS间避免信号干扰的信号强度经验值。
在第一种方式中,确定获得的接收方地址和发送方地址中包含该STA的地址或第一AP的地址,且该前导码的信号强度大于设定的第一信号强度阈值时,确定该PPDU与STA相关,即该PPDU的接收方是该STA,而发送方即为第一AP,显然,STA不能在任何一个信道传输,否则会造成数据干扰,此时,在第一时长内,将传输涉及的所有信道标记为小区内传输导致信道忙状态,例如,homeBusy状态,且该STA停止退避,该STA需要接收信道中的 PPDU。在接收完成后,继续执行退避,并在退避结束后,将待发送数据发送至第一AP。其中,设置第一信号强度阈值为了在一个BSS内,在第一AP参与数据传输时,避免冲突。
在第二种方式中,确定获得的接收方地址和发送方地址中不包含该STA的地址,且不包含第一AP的地址,且该前导码的信道强度大于设定的第二信号强度阈值时,确定该PPDU与该STA不相关,即该PPDU为其它BSS中的STA或AP发送的,此时,在第一时长内,将该前导码指示PPDU中有效载荷所在的信道标识为小区间传输导致信道忙状态,例如,nonhomeBusy状态,在传输涉及的信道中有部分信道为nonhomeBusy状态时,STA继续执行退避,直至退避计数值为0时,退避完成,在传输涉及的全部信道,或传输涉及的全部信道中处于空闲状态的信道向第一AP发送待发送数据。
参阅图9所示,例如,STA在信道3中侦听到PPDU的前导码后,判定该前导码包含的接收方地址和发送方地址中包含该STA的地址或第一AP的地址,且该前导码的信号强度大于设定的第一信号强度阈值,此时,STA确定该PPDU与自身相关,因此,先进行数据接收,在数据接收完成后,继续执行退避,在退避完成时,向第一AP传输数据;参阅图10所示,例如,STA在信道3中侦听到PPDU的前导码后,判定该前导码包含的接收方地址和发送方地址中不包含该STA的地址,也不包含第一AP的地址,且该前导码的信号强度大于设定的第二信号强度阈值,此时,STA确定该PPDU与自身不相关,因此,需要继续执行退避,在退避完成时,向第一AP传输数据。
具体的,在第一种方式中,进行数据接收,包括:
在第一时长内,根据该PPDU中的有效载荷,进行数据接收。具体的,该PPDU的前导码中指示了PPDU的有效载荷中包含数据包的长度、调制方式、信道编码方式、空间多天线传输模式、频域资源分配方式等,因此,可以根据该PPDU中的前导码指示的内容,进行数据接收。
具体的,在第一种方式、以及第二种方式中,在所述STA与所述第一AP未在所述至少一个信道标识中约定一个信道标识对应的信道为主信道时,执 行退避,退避完成,包括:
继续周期性测量所述至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数,根据测量的该信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数,确定该信道标识对应的信道的状态;
在确定所述至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道的状态均为忙时,在经过单位退避时间后,退避计数值不变;
在确定所述至少一个信道标识中包含的信道标识对应的信道的状态均为闲时,确定状态为闲的信道的数目,并根据所述数目,生成退避自减值,在经过单位退避时间后,退避计数值减少所述退避自减值,生成新的退避计数值;继续周期性测量所述至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数,根据测量的该信道标识对应的信道的干扰信号参数,确定该信道标识对应的信道的状态,直至所述退避计数值为0,退避完成;
在所述STA与所述第一AP在所述至少一个信道标识中约定一个信道标识对应的信道为主信道时,执行退避,退避完成,包括:
继续周期性测量所述主信道的干扰信号参数,根据测量的该主信道的干扰信号参数,确定该主信道的状态;
在确定所述主信道的状态为忙时,在经过单位退避时间后,退避计数值不变;
在确定所述主信道的状态为闲时,在经过单位退避时间后,退避计数值减少设定退避自减值,生成新的退避计数值;继续周期性测量所述主信道的干扰信号参数,根据测量的该主信道的干扰信号参数,确定该主信道的状态,直至所述退避计数值为0,退避完成。
例如,在STA和第一AP未约定主信道时,当前退避计数值为15,确定当前状态为闲的信道数目为2,则退避自减值为2,经过单位退避时间后,退避计数值更新为15-2=13。
在步骤802,STA需要对至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道进行侦听,这就需要STA对最大传输带宽内包含的所有信道均可以做前导码 检测,因此,在具体实现中,STA需要部署大量的前导码检测器,因此,在保证侦听效率的同时,降低硬件成本,降低前导码检测器的数量。
可选的,AP指示信息中还携带有至少一个监测信道信息,其中,每个监测信道信息中包含一个监测信道、该监测信道所在频段、该监测信道的优先级,每个监测信息中的监测信道的优先级不同,每个监测信息中的监测信道所在频段不同。
在步骤802,STA对至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道进行侦听,包括:
确定该至少一个信道标识中的每个信道标识对应的信道所在频段;
根据该至少一个监测信道信息,确定每个信道标识对应的信道所在频段对应的监测信道,以及该监测信道的优先级;
在确定的监测信道的优先级中,筛选出最低的优先级为第一优先级;
在所有监测信道中,筛选出优先级高于第一优先级的监测信道;
对筛选出的每个监测信道进行侦听,将侦听结果作为处于该检测信道所在频段内的信道的侦听结果。
为了降低成本,降低前导码检测器的数量,同时提高侦听效率,在本实施例中,在前导码出现概率较高的信道中部署前导码检测器。STA还可以在与第一AP协商了如图6所示CB Mode后,采用图7所示的物理架构执行步骤802,STA通过对每个频段中监测信道进行侦听,实现对传输涉及的每个信道进行侦听,还可以通过以下方式,对传输涉及的每个信道进行侦听,以减少前导码检测器的数量:
设置每个RF链中的模数变换器可以接收多个信道上的信号;或者
划分多个频段,为每个RF链中的模数变换器设置一个对应的频段;
STA对每个RF链分配的信道进行调度。
采用本发明实施例提供的信道接入方法,STA对第一BSS中第一AP指示信息的传输涉及的信道进行侦听,在任意一个信道侦听到PPDU的前导码后,根据前导码中的包含接收方地址和发送方地址,以及该前导码的信道强 度,将待发送数据发送至第一AP,可以准确的提高对信道状态的判断准确率,从而降低STA抢占信道产生冲突的概率,避免造成传输的数据被干扰,提高了数据传输准确率和信道接入效率。
在以上实施例中,判断每个信道状态时,可以测量干扰功率强度、信号能量、OFDM符号循环特征等参数,即对信道进行功率检测、能量检测、OFDM符号循环特性检测等,在一信道的任意一个参数超过对应的设定阈值时,判断该信道状态为忙;在所有参数均未超过对应的设定阈值时,判断该信道状态为闲。在实际应用场景中,可以测量WIFI信号功率检测,其中,WIFI信号包括:NON_HT,HT_MF,HT_GF,VHT PPDU,HE PPDU等。
参阅图11所示,在信道中的PPDU为WIFI数据包(WLAN包)时,STA在各个状态进行转换,其中第一BSS为该STA所属的BSS:
STA处于信道侦听状态,在检查到WLAN包时,进入前导接收状态;在退避完成时,进入发送状态;
STA处于发送状态,在发送完成时,继续进行信道侦听状态;
STA处于前导接收状态,在检测到WLAN包前导码的循环冗余校验码(Cyclic Redundancy Check,CRC)校验失败,或前导码包含的BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识不一致,或前导码包含的BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识一致,但有效载荷并不包含有关本STA的传输时,进入信道侦听状态;在检测到新的前导码信号强度大于当前前导码的信号强度,且两个前导码的信号强度差值大于设定第一门限时,继续进行前导接收状态,此时接收的为新的前导码;在确定WLAN包为HE包,且前导包含的BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识一致,且有效载荷包含有关本STA的传输,进入HE格式有效载荷接收状态;在确定WLAN包为非HE包,进入非HE格式有效载荷接收状态;
STA处于HE格式有效载荷接收状态,在有效载荷接收完成时,进入信道侦听状态;
STA处于非HE格式有效载荷接收状态,在有效载荷接收完成时,也进入 信道侦听状态;在检查到新的前导码信号强度大于该非HE格式有效载荷的信号强度时,且两个信号强度门限高于设定第二门限,进入前导接收状态,接收新的前导码。
在以上实施例中,STA根据解码前导码得到的占用信道的第一时长,设定信道占用时间的计时器1,具体的,满足以下条件时,若信道占用时间的计时器处于空闲状态,则将该信道占用时间的计时器1设置为第一时长;若信道占用时间计时器1处于非空闲状态,则将该信道占用时间的计时器1设置为第一时长和当前剩余时间中的最大值,参阅图12:
确定该前导码包含的BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识相同,且前导码的信号强度高于第一信号强度阈值;或者
确定该前导码包含的BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识相同;或者
确定该前导码包含的BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识不同,且前导码的信号强度高于第二信号强度阈值。
可选的,根据以上前导码中BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识的关系,可以将该信道占用时间的计时器1分为该信道占用时间的计时器1a和该信道占用时间的计时器1b,参阅图13、14所示:
在满足:该前导码包含的BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识相同,且前导码的信号强度高于第一信号强度阈值,或者该前导码包含的BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识相同时,若信道占用时间的计时器1a处于空闲状态,则将该信道占用时间的计时器1a设置为第一时长;若信道占用时间计时器1a处于非空闲状态,则将该信道占用时间的计时器1a设置为第一时长和当前剩余时间中的最大值;
在满足该前导码包含的BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识不同,且前导码的信号强度高于第二信号强度阈值时,若信道占用时间的计时器1b处于空闲状态,则将该信道占用时间的计时器1b设置为第一时长;若信道占用时间计时器1b处于非空闲状态,则将该信道占用时间的计时器1b设置为第一时长和当前剩余时间中的最大值。
参阅图15所示,在接收有效载荷成功后,也可能获得占用信道的第二时长,则可以再设置一个信道占用时间的计时器2,与设置上述信道占用时间的计时器相同,若信道占用时间的计时器2处于空闲状态,则将该信道占用时间的计时器设置为第二时长;若信道占用时间计时器2处于非空闲状态,则将该信道占用时间的计时器2设置为第二时长和当前剩余时间中的最大值。
需要说明的是,在本发明实施例中,前导码中解码出的BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识相同,表示前导码所在的PPDU是与该STA相关的,同理,前导码中解码获得的接收方地址和发送方地址中包含该STA的地址或第一AP的地址,也表示表示前导码所在的PPDU是与该STA相关的。因此,在上述条件中,还可以将条件:前导码中BSS标识与第一BSS的BSS标识相同,替换为:前导码中的接收方地址和发送方地址中包含该STA的地址或第一AP的地址,本发明实施例不再赘述。
根据以上论述,在STA与第一AP约定了主信道时,可以自主接入信道,进行数据发送的条件为:信道占用时间的计时器1a处于空闲状态,即第一AP为空闲状态;传输涉及的信道或所有监测信道未处于前导接收状态,即当前信道没有数据包;主信道的功率检测、WIFI信号功率检测等确定主信道状态为闲,信道占用时间的计时器1b处于空闲状态,且信道占用时间的计时器2处于空闲状态,即主信道未被除第一BSS以外的其它BSS使用;STA处于信道侦听状态,即STA未参与其它通信。满足以上条件后,STA进行退避,并在退避完成后,向第一AP发送待发送数据。
在STA与第一AP约定了主信道时,可以由于AP触发接入信道,进行数据接收的条件为:主信道的功率检测、WIFI信号功率检测等确定主信道状态为闲,信道占用时间的计时器1b处于空闲状态,且信道占用时间的计时器2处于空闲状态,即主信道未被除第一BSS以外的其它BSS使用。
在STA未与第一AP约定主信道时,可以自主接入信道,进行数据发送的条件为:信道占用时间的计时器1a处于空闲状态,即第一AP为空闲状态;传输涉及的信道或所有监测信道未处于前导接收状态,即当前信道没有数据 包;传输涉及的信道中,至少一个信道的功率检测、WIFI信号功率检测等确定该信道状态为闲,信道占用时间的计时器1b处于空闲状态,且信道占用时间的计时器2处于空闲状态,即该信道未被除第一BSS以外的其它BSS使用;STA处于信道侦听状态,即STA未参与其它通信。满足以上条件后,STA进行退避,并在退避完成后,向第一AP发送待发送数据。
在STA与第一AP约定了主信道时,可以由于AP触发接入信道,进行数据接收的条件为:传输涉及的信道中,至少一个信道的功率检测、WIFI信号功率检测等确定主信道状态为闲,信道占用时间的计时器1b处于空闲状态,且信道占用时间的计时器2处于空闲状态,即该信道未被除第一BSS以外的其它BSS使用。
