Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method for adjusting channel occupancy probability, a channel occupancy probability adjustment system, and a base station.
- 3GPP The 3 rd Generation Partnership Project, the third generation mobile communications partner organization
- 3GPP is discussing how to use unlicensed spectrum, such as the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, with the help of licensed spectrum.
- unlicensed spectrum are currently mainly used in systems such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, radar, and medical.
- LAA LTE Assisted Access
- SDL downlink
- TDD Time Division Duplex
- DC Dual Connectivity
- LTE systems operating in unlicensed bands have the ability to provide higher spectral efficiency and greater coverage, while relying on the same core network to allow data traffic between licensed and unlicensed bands. Sew switch. For the user, this means a better broadband experience, higher speed, better stability and mobility.
- Wi-Fi Wireless Fidelity
- CSMA/CD Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection
- the basic principle of this method is Wi-Fi. Before the AP (Access Point) or the terminal sends signaling or data, it must first monitor whether other APs or other terminals are transmitting/receiving signaling or data. If so, continue to listen until it is monitored. If not, a random number is generated as the backoff time. If no signaling or data transmission is detected during this backoff time, the AP or the terminal may start transmitting signaling or data after the end of the backoff time. The process is shown in Figure 2.
- CSMA/CD Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection
- the LTE network has good orthogonality to ensure the interference level, the uplink and downlink transmissions between the base station and the user do not need to consider whether other base stations or other users are transmitting data. If LTE is used on an unlicensed band, it does not consider whether other devices are using unlicensed bands nearby, which will cause great interference to Wi-Fi devices. Because LTE transmits as long as there is traffic, there is no monitoring rule, then the Wi-Fi device cannot transmit when LTE has service transmission, and can only detect the channel idle state for data transmission after the LTE service transmission is completed.
- LAA LTE assisted access
- Wi-Fi existing access technologies
- LTE LTE assisted access
- LTE requires an LBT mechanism. In this way, if the LTE detects that the channel is busy on the unlicensed spectrum, the LTE cannot occupy the frequency band, and if the channel is detected to be idle, it can be occupied.
- a LBT mechanism based on frame-based (FBE) (as shown in Figure 3) is proposed.
- the left slash is the channel detection time of CCA (Clear Channel Assessment).
- the CCA detection time is periodically repeated. If the channel is idle, the channel is occupied. After the channel occupancy time reaches the maximum channel occupation time, there is an idle time. At the idle time, the transmission point does not send signals and data. So that other sending points can preempt the channel. After the idle time, the CCA detection time occurs again. If the channel is detected to be busy, the channel is not occupied, and the channel is detected again until the CCA detection time of the next period occurs.
- the channel detection time also belongs to the idle time, and the idle duration. Must be greater than 5% of the maximum channel occupancy time. The idle time plus the maximum time occupied by the channel is the period.
- LBT-based LBT mechanism is cycle-free. As long as the service arrives, the CCA detection is triggered. If the CCA detects idle. , immediately send signaling or data; if the channel is detected to be busy, take a random number N, N ranges from 1 to q (ie, the length of the contention window), and q ranges from 4 to 32.
- the extended CCA (extended channel detection time) mechanism is adopted, that is, the random value N, N ranges from 1 to 16. If the value is 8, it means that in the next consecutive CCA detection time.
- the channel is detected every CCA detection time. If the channel is detected to be idle, N-1, if the channel is detected to be busy, N is unchanged, and when N is 0, signaling or data is sent.
- the LBE adopts different initialCCA (initial channel detection time) and extended CCA (ECCA, extended channel detection time) values, such as the first CCA detection, called initial CCA, This time granularity is relatively large, such as 34us; when the channel is busy or the channel occupancy time is cut off, the time granularity of the ECCA is relatively small, such as 9us.
- initial CCA initial channel detection time
- ECCA extended channel detection time

- the UL grant uplink grant indication
- the PDCCH Physical Downlink Control Channel
- the EPDCCH Enhanced Physical Downlink Control Channel
- Perform downlink LBT detection that is, the eNB performs downlink LBT detection first, and then sends a UL grant; after receiving the UL grant, the UE (terminal) performs uplink LBT detection, and then transmits the PUSCH, making the UL PUSCH more difficult to transmit;
- the UL grant of the PUSCH resource scheduling the LAA is sent by the PDCCH or the EPDCCH on the licensed spectrum.
- the eNB is When the UL grant is sent, it is transmitted on the licensed spectrum. Therefore, the downlink LBT detection is not performed. After the scheduled UE receives the UL grant, the uplink LBT detection is performed, and then the PUSCH is transmitted, so that the PUSCH is easily transmitted.

Description
本发明涉及通信技术领域,具体而言,涉及一种信道占用概率的调整方法、一种信道占用概率的调整系统和一种基站。
随着通信业务量的急剧增加,3GPP(The 3rd Generation Partnership Project,第三代移动通信伙伴组织)的授权频谱越来越不足以提供更高的网络容量。为了进一步提高频谱资源的利用率,3GPP正讨论如何在授权频谱的帮助下使用未授权频谱,如2.4GHz和5GHz频段。这些未授权频谱目前主要是Wi-Fi、蓝牙、雷达、医疗等系统在使用。
通常情况下,为已授权频段设计的接入技术,如LTE(Long Term Evolution,长期演进)不适合在非授权频段上使用,因为LTE这类接入技术对频谱效率和用户体验优化的要求非常高。然而,载波聚合(Carrier Aggregation,CA)功能让将LTE部署于非授权频段变为可能。3GPP提出了LAA(LTE Assisted Access,LTE辅助接入)的概念,借助LTE授权频谱的帮助来使用未授权频谱。而未授权频谱可以有两种工作方式,一种是补充下行(SDL,Supplemental Downlink),即只有下行传输子帧;另一种是TDD模式,既包含下行子帧、上行子帧。补充下行这种情况只能是借助载波聚合技术使用。而TDD模式除了可以借助载波聚合技术使用外,还可以借助DC(Dual Connectivity,双连通)使用,也可以独立使用。如图1所示。
相比于Wi-Fi系统,工作在非授权频段的LTE系统有能力提供更高的频谱效率和更大的覆盖效果,同时基于同一个核心网让数据流量在授权频段和非授权频段之间无缝切换。对用户来说,这意味着更好的宽带体验、更高的速率、更好的稳定性和移动便利。
现有的在非授权频谱上使用的接入技术,如Wi-Fi,具有较弱的抗干
扰能力。为了避免干扰,Wi-Fi系统设计了很多干扰避免规则,如CSMA/CD(Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection,载波监听多路访问/冲突检测方法),这种方法的基本原理是Wi-Fi的AP(Access Point,接入点)或者终端在发送信令或者数据之前,要先监听检测周围是否有其他AP或者其他终端在发送/接收信令或数据,若有,则继续监听,直到监听到没有为止;若没有,则生成一个随机数作为退避时间,在这个退避时间内,如果没检测到有信令或数据传输,那么在退避时间结束之后,AP或终端可以开始发送信令或数据。该过程如图2所示。
但是,LTE网络中由于有很好的正交性保证了干扰水平,所以基站与用户的上下行传输不用考虑周围是否有其他基站或其他用户在传输数据。如果LTE在非授权频段上使用时也不考虑周围是否有其他设备在使用非授权频段,那么将对Wi-Fi设备带来极大的干扰。因为LTE只要有业务就进行传输,没有任何监听规则,那么Wi-Fi设备在LTE有业务传输时就不能传输,只能等到LTE业务传输完成,才能检测到信道空闲状态以进行数据传输。
所以LTE在使用非授权频段时,最主要的关键点之一是确保LAA(LTE assisted access,LTE辅助的接入技术)能够在公平友好的基础上和现有的接入技术(比如Wi-Fi)共存。而传统的LTE系统中没有LBT(Listen Before Talk,先听后说)的机制来避免碰撞。为了与Wi-Fi更好的共存,LTE需要一种LBT机制。这样,LTE在非授权频谱上如果检测到信道忙,则不能占用该频段,如果检测到信道闲,才能占用。
基于上述问题,目前,提出了一种基于帧结构的(FBE,Frame based equipment)的LBT机制(如图3所示),左斜线是CCA(Clear Channel Assessment,空闲信道评估)的信道检测时间,CCA检测时间周期性重复出现,若检测到信道空闲,则占用信道,在信道占用时间达到最大信道占用时间之后,有一个idle(空闲)时间,在idle时间,发送点不发送信号和数据,以便于其它发送点抢占信道。在idle时间之后,又出现CCA检测时间,若检测到信道忙,则不占用信道,直到下一周期的CCA检测时间出现时再次检测信道。当然,信道检测时间也属于idle时间,idle时长
必须大于信道最大占用时间的5%。idle时间加上信道占用最大时间即周期。
目前,还提出了一种基于负载的(LBE,Load based equipment)的LBT机制,如下图4所示:基于LBE的LBT机制是无周期的,只要业务到达,则触发CCA检测,如果CCA检测空闲,则马上发送信令或数据;若检测到信道忙,则取一个随机数N,N的取值范围为1到q(即竞争窗口长度),q的取值范围是4到32。图4示出了q=16的情况,此时,当检测到信道空闲时,信道最大占用时间为(13/32)x q=6.5ms。在6.5ms之后,采取extended CCA(延长的信道检测时间)机制,即也是随机取值N,N的范围为1到16,若取值为8,则表示在接下来的连续的CCA检测时间中,每个CCA检测时间都要检测信道,若检测到信道空闲,则N-1,若检测到信道忙,则N不变,当N为0时,发送信令或数据。
另外,为了更进一步与Wi-Fi保持公平性,LBE采取不同的initialCCA(初始信道检测时间)和extended CCA(ECCA,延长的信道检测时间)的值,比如第一次CCA检测,叫initial CCA,这个时间粒度比较大,比如34us;当检测到信道忙或者信道占用时间截止之后的ECCA的时间粒度比较小,比如9us。另外,在信道检测中,若检测到信道忙,则要增加一个defer period(延迟时间),该defer period的值与initial CCA的值相当,也就是说必须再次长时间的检测到信道空闲,才能继续N-1。
而对于LAA中的上行PUSCH(Physical Uplink Shared Channel,物理上行共享信道)的发送,有两种情况:第一种情况是,调度LAA的PUSCH资源的UL grant(上行授权指示)是由非授权频谱上的PDCCH(Physical Downlink Control Channel,物理下行控制信道)或EPDCCH(Enhanced Physical Downlink Control Channel,增强的物理下行控制信道)发送,在这种情况下,eNB(基站)在发送UL grant时,要先做下行的LBT检测,即eNB先做下行LBT检测,再发送UL grant;UE(终端)在收到UL grant之后,再进行上行的LBT检测,再发送PUSCH,使得UL PUSCH更难发送;第二种情况是,调度LAA的PUSCH资源的UL grant是由授权频谱上的PDCCH或EPDCCH发送,这种情况下,eNB在
发送UL grant时,因为是在授权频谱上发送,所以不用进行下行的LBT检测,在被调度的UE在收到UL grant之后,进行上行的LBT检测,然后再发送PUSCH,使得PUSCH的容易发送。
因此,如何提高LAA系统的上行吞吐量性能成为亟待解决的问题。
发明内容
本发明正是基于上述问题,提出了一种新的技术方案,根据基站发送对象的不同,设置不同的LBT信道检测机制或参数,使优先级排名靠前的发送对象可以优先占用信道,即可以有效地提高优先级排名靠前的发送对象的占用信道的概率,进而提高LAA系统的上行吞吐量性能。
有鉴于此,本发明的第一方面,提出了一种信道占用概率的调整方法,用于基站,包括:确定所述基站待发送的第一发送对象和第二发送对象,其中,所述第一发送对象的优先级高于所述第二发送对象的优先级;判断在发送所述第一发送对象时是否使用LBT信道检测机制;在判定为否时,直接发送所述第一发送对象,且在发送所述第二发送对象时使用LBT信道检测机制;在判定为是时,调整发送所述第一发送对象和所述第二发送对象分别对应的LBT信道检测机制的参数信息,以使发送所述第一发送对象占用信道的概率大于发送所述第二发送对象占用信道的概率。
在该技术方案中,对基站的不同发送对象设置不同的LBT信道检测机制或LBT信道检测机制的参数信息,以根据优先级区别抢占信道的概率,即提高优先级排名靠前的发送对象的占用信道的概率,具体地,对于优先级排名靠前的第一发送对象可以无需进行LBT信道检测直接发送,而对于优先级排名靠后的第二发送对象在发送之前必须进行LBT信道检测,如此,显然可以提高第一发送对象占用信道的概率,进而提高LAA系统的上行吞吐量;另外,如果在发送第一发送对象和第二发送对象均需要进行LBT信道检测,则可以通过调整发送不同的对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的参数信息,以达到提高优先级排名靠前的发送对象的占用信道的概率的目的,进而提高LAA系统的上行吞吐量。
在上述技术方案中,优选地,所述在判定为是时,调整发送所述第一
发送对象和所述第二发送对象分别对应的LBT信道检测机制的参数信息,以使发送所述第一发送对象占用信道的概率大于发送所述第二发送对象占用信道的概率,具体包括:将发送所述第一发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第一信道检测时间粒度调整为小于发送所述第二发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第二信道检测时间粒度,其中,当为基于负载的LBT信道检测机制时,所述第一信道检测时间粒度和所述第二信道检测时间粒度包括:初始信道检测时间粒度和延长的信道检测时间粒度;和/或将发送所述第一发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第一信道检测门限调整为大于发送所述第二发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第二信道检测门限;和/或确定发送所述第一发送对象和所述第二发送对象分别对应的LBT信道检测机制的类型,以根据所述类型调整发送所述第一发送对象和所述第二发送对象分别对应的LBT信道检测机制的所述参数信息。
在该技术方案中,当发送第一发送对象和第二发送对象均需要进行LBT信道检测时,可以通过以下方式中的一种或多种调整发送第一发送对象和第二发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的参数信息,具体地包括:(1)通过调整信道检测时间粒度,也就是说,使发送第一发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第一信道检测时间粒度(比如,20us)小于发送第二发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第二信道检测时间粒度(比如,34us),如此,通过缩短信道检测时间粒度的方式提高发送第一发送对象的占用信道的概率,优先地占用信道进行数据传输,其中,当为基于负载的LBT信道检测机制时,信道检测时间粒度至少包括初始信道检测时间粒度(initial CCA slot)和延长的信道检测时间粒度(ECCA slot);(2)通过调整信道检测门限,也就是说,使发送第一发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第一信道检测门限大于发送第二发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第二信道检测门限,如此,通过增大信道检测门限可以提高对信道干扰的兼容性,进而提高发送第一发送对象的占用信道的概率;(3)通过根据发送不同的发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的类型进一步细化调整参数信息,以提高优先级排名靠前的发送对象

时是否使用LBT信道检测机制;控制模块606,用于在判定为否时,控制直接发送所述第一发送对象,且在发送所述第二发送对象时使用LBT信道检测机制;以及调整模块608,用于在判定为是时,调整发送所述第一发送对象和所述第二发送对象分别对应的LBT信道检测机制的参数信息,以使发送所述第一发送对象占用信道的概率大于发送所述第二发送对象占用信道的概率。
在该技术方案中,对基站的不同发送对象设置不同的LBT信道检测机制或LBT信道检测机制的参数信息,以根据优先级区别抢占信道的概率,即提高优先级排名靠前的发送对象的占用信道的概率,具体地,对于优先级排名靠前的第一发送对象可以无需进行LBT信道检测直接发送,而对于优先级排名靠后的第二发送对象在发送之前必须进行LBT信道检测,如此,显然可以提高第一发送对象占用信道的概率,进而提高LAA系统的上行吞吐量;另外,如果在发送第一发送对象和第二发送对象均需要进行LBT信道检测,则可以通过调整发送不同的对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的参数信息,以达到提高优先级排名靠前的发送对象的占用信道的概率的目的,进而提高LAA系统的上行吞吐量。
在上述技术方案中,优选地,所述调整模块608具体用于:将发送所述第一发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第一信道检测时间粒度调整为小于发送所述第二发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第二信道检测时间粒度,其中,当为基于负载的LBT信道检测机制时,所述第一信道检测时间粒度和所述第二信道检测时间粒度包括:初始信道检测时间粒度和延长的信道检测时间粒度;和/或将发送所述第一发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第一信道检测门限调整为大于发送所述第二发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第二信道检测门限;和/或确定发送所述第一发送对象和所述第二发送对象分别对应的LBT信道检测机制的类型,以根据所述类型调整发送所述第一发送对象和所述第二发送对象分别对应的LBT信道检测机制的所述参数信息。
在该技术方案中,当发送第一发送对象和第二发送对象均需要进行LBT信道检测时,可以通过以下方式中的一种或多种调整发送第一发送对
象和第二发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的参数信息,具体地包括:(1)通过调整信道检测时间粒度,也就是说,使发送第一发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第一信道检测时间粒度(比如,20us)小于发送第二发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第二信道检测时间粒度(比如,34us),如此,通过缩短信道检测时间粒度的方式提高发送第一发送对象的占用信道的概率,优先地占用信道进行数据传输,其中,当为基于负载的LBT信道检测机制时,信道检测时间粒度至少包括初始信道检测时间粒度(initial CCA slot)和延长的信道检测时间粒度(ECCA slot),比如,发送下行PDSCH数据的LBT信道检测机制中,initial CCA检测时间粒度是34us,extended CCA的检测时间粒度是20us,而下行PDCCH/EPDCCH发送UL grant(或发送上行的PUSCH)数据的LBT信道检测机制中,initial CCA检测时间粒度为20us,extended CCA检测时间粒度为9us;(2)通过调整信道检测门限,也就是说,使发送第一发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第一信道检测门限大于发送第二发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的第二信道检测门限,如此,通过增大信道检测门限可以提高对信道干扰的兼容性,即只要信道干扰不是很大,就能发送第一发送对象,进而提高发送第一发送对象的占用信道的概率;(3)通过根据发送不同的发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制的类型进一步细化调整参数信息,以提高优先级排名靠前的发送对象的占用信道的概率,进而提高LAA系统的上行吞吐量。
在上述技术方案中,优选地,在确定发送所述第一发送对象和所述第二发送对象对应的为基于帧结构的LBT信道检测机制时,所述调整模块608具体用于:将发送所述第一发送对象所对应的第一信道检测时间的重复周期调整为小于发送所述第二发送对象所对应的第二信道检测时间的重复周期;以及在确定发送所述第一发送对象和所述第二发送对象对应的为基于负载的LBT信道检测机制时,所述调整模块608具体用于:将发送所述第一发送对象所对应的延长的信道检测时间的第一竞争窗口长度调整为小于发送所述第二发送对象所对应的延长的信道检测时间的第二竞争窗口长度;和/或将发送所述第一发送对象所对应的在检测到信道繁忙时的
延长的信道检测时间的第一延迟时间调整为小于所述第二发送对象所对应的在检测到信道繁忙时的延长的信道检测时间的第二延迟时间。
在该技术方案中,当确定发送第一发送对象和第二发送对象对应的为基于帧结构(FBE)的LBT信道检测机制时,通过调整信道检测时间的重复周期,具体地,使发送第一发送对象所对应的第一信道检测时间的重复周期小于发送第二发送对象所对应的第二信道检测时间的重复周期,即在同样的时间内,增加发送第一发送对象的信道检测的次数,进而提高发送第一发送对象的占用信道的概率;而当确定第一发送对象和第二发送对象对应的为基于负载(LBE)的LBT信道检测机制时,通过调整延长的信道检测时间(ECCA)的竞争窗口长度和/或在检测信道繁忙时的延长的信道检测时间的延迟时间(defer period),具体地,使发送第一发送对象所对应的延长的信道检测时间的第一竞争窗口长度(比如,q取4)小于发送第二发送对象所对应的延长的信道检测时间的第二竞争窗口长度(比如,q取16到32之间的值)和/或使发送第一发送对象所对应的在检测到信道繁忙时的延长的信道检测时间的第一延迟时间(比如20us)小于发送第二发送对象所对应的在检测到信道繁忙时的延长的信道检测时间的第二延迟时间(比如34us),以提高发送第一发送对象的占用信道的概率,进而提高LAA系统的上行吞吐量。
在上述技术方案中,优选地,在确定发送所述第一发送对象和所述第二发送对象对应的为所述基于负载的LBT信道检测机制时,所述调整模块具体608用于:将所述第一竞争窗口长度和所述第二竞争窗口长度设置为固定竞争窗口长度值,并将发送所述第一发送对象所对应的延长的信道检测时间的所述第一竞争窗口长度调整为小于发送所述第二发送对象所对应的延长的信道检测时间的所述第二竞争窗口长度;或者将发送所述第一发送对象所对应的延长的信道检测时间的所述第一竞争窗口长度设置为固定竞争窗口长度值,以及将发送所述第二发送对象所对应的延长的信道检测时间的所述第二竞争窗口长度设置为可变竞争窗口长度值;或者将所述第一竞争窗口长度和所述第二竞争窗口长度设置为可变竞争窗口长度值,以及将发送所述第一发送对象所对应的延长的信道检测时间的所述第一竞
争窗口长度的第一上限边界值和第一下限边界值分别调整为小于发送所述第二发送对象所对应的延长的信道检测时间的所述第二竞争窗口长度的第二上限边界值和第二下限边界值,并将所述第一竞争窗口长度的第一增长值调整为小于所述第二竞争窗口长度的第二增长值。
在该技术方案中,在确定发送第一发送对象和第二发送对象对应的为基于负载的LBT信道检测机制时,可以通过多种方式实现使发送第一发送对象对应的延长的信道检测时间的第一竞争窗口长度小于发送第二发送对象对应的延长的信道检测时间的第二竞争窗口长度,以确保方案的可实施性,具体包括以下几种:(1)在将第一竞争窗口长度和第二竞争窗口长度设置为固定竞争窗口长度值时,直接调整为第一竞争窗口长度小于第二竞争窗口长度,即使得当LBT信道检测机制是基于LBE的时,随机数N取较小值时占用信道的概率高,比如,对于发送第一发送对象所对应的延长的信道检测时间的第一竞争窗口长度的值取4,而发送第二发送对象所对应的延长的信道检测时间的第二竞争窗口长度的值取16到32,那么发送第一发送对象所对应的LBT信道检测机制中随机数N从1~q中取,则会取较小值,就意味着需要在更少个CCA检测时间检测到信道空闲时,就发送第一发送对象;(2)通过将第一竞争窗口长度设置为固定竞争窗口长度值而将第二竞争窗口长度设置为可变竞争窗口长度值,以使第一竞争窗口长度小于第二竞争窗口长度;(3)在将第一竞争窗口长度和第二竞争窗口长度设置为可变竞争窗口长度值时,通过使第一竞争窗口长度的第一上限边界值和第一下限边界值(即最大值和最小值)分别小于第二竞争窗口长度的第二上限边界值和第二下限边界值(即最大值和最小值)且使第一竞争窗口长度的第一增长值(比如增长值小于第一竞争窗口长度)小于第二竞争窗口长度的第二增长值(比如增长值等于第二竞争窗口长度,即可成倍增长),以使第一竞争窗口长度小于第二竞争窗口长度;如此,提高发送第一发送对象的占用信道的概率,进而提高LAA系统的上行吞吐量。
在上述技术方案中,优选地,所述第一发送对象包括:下行发送包括调度上行PUSCH的授权指示的PDCCH/EPDCCH信令或发送上行的
PUSCH数据;所述第二发送对象包括:发送下行的PDSCH数据。
在该技术方案中,第一发送对象优选地包括:在下行信道发送时包括调度上行PUSCH的授权指示的PDCCH/EPDCCH信令或在上行信道发送的PUSCH数据,而第二发送对象优选地包括在下行信道发送的PDSCH数据,即在下行信道发送的PDSCH数据的优先级排名低于前两者,使在下行信道发送时包括调度上行PUSCH的授权指示的PDCCH/EPDCCH信令和在上行信道发送的PUSCH数据的占用信道的概率较大,进而提高LAA系统的上行吞吐量。
需要说明的是,在下行信道发送时包括调度上行PUSCH的授权指示的PDCCH/EPDCCH信令和在上行信道发送的PUSCH数据的优先级相互不影响,只要保证二者的优先级排名高于在下行信道发送的PDSCH数据即可。
在上述技术方案中,优选地,所述第一发送对象包括:发送上行的PUSCH数据,且所述发送上行的PUSCH数据的上行授权指示的调度信令通过非授权频段的PDCCH/EPDCCH发送;所述第二发送对象包括:发送上行的PUSCH数据,且所述发送上行的PUSCH数据的上行授权指示的调度信令通过授权频段的PDCCH/EPDCCH发送。
在该技术方案中,第一发送对象优选地为发送上行的PUSCH数据,且其上行授权指示的调度信令通过非授权频段的PDCCH/EPDCCH发送,而第二发送对象优选地为发送上行的PUSCH数据,且其上行授权指示的调度信令通过授权频段的PDCCH/EPDCCH发送,以提高上行授权指示的调度信令是在非授权频段的PDCCH/EPDCCH上发送的上行发送PUSCH数据时占用上行信道的概率,进而提高LAA系统在非授权频段的上行吞吐量。
图7示出了根据本发明的一个实施例的基站的框图。

以上结合附图详细说明了本发明的技术方案,根据基站发送对象的不同,设置不同的LBT信道检测机制或参数,使优先级排名靠前的发送对象可以优先占用信道,即可以有效地提高优先级排名靠前的发送对象的占用信道的概率,进而提高LAA系统的上行吞吐量。
