Description

一种随机接入设备、方法及系统 技术领域
本申请涉及无线通信技术,尤其涉及一种随机接入设备、方法及系统。
背景技术
在长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统中,用户设备(User Equipment,UE)通过随机接入过程与小区建立连接并取得上行同步,只有取得上行同步,UE才能进行上行传输。
类似地,在机器和机器(M2M,Machine-to-Machine)系统中,UE也同样需要随机接入过程来建立连接与完成上行同步。
与LTE系统稍有不同,M2M系统中除了有随机接入响应消息,还会有随机接入拒绝消息。如图1所示,演进节点B(evolved NodeB,eNB)收到UE发送的随机接入请求(Random Access Request)消息后,通过随机接入响应(Random Access Response)消息通知UE接入,或者通过发送随机接入拒绝(Random Access Reject)消息拒绝UE接入,并告知UE等待一段时间后重新发起随机接入过程。两者都是在物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control CHannnel,PDCCH)上发送的。
通常M2M系统中,UE数量巨大。比如:一个监测网络中包括数以万计的监测节点,在一段时间内,可能发生随机接入的节点数量很多,而随机接入响应或者拒绝消息由于是在PDCCH上发送的,而PDCCH资源同时还会用来发送调度消息或寻呼消息,这会导致PDCCH资源受限。
比如:在一些应急场景例如火灾预警中,可能很多UE都监测到突发事件,例如火灾的发生,短时间内大量UE同时发起随机接入过程,演进节点B(evolved NodeB,eNB)根据网络负载情况要在PDCCH上给这些UE发送随机接入响应或拒绝消息,这时候PDCCH受限的情况会更明显。
综上,在目前的诸如M2M系统等无线通信系统中,当需要针对多个终端 设备发起的随机接入过程进行处理时,可能存在控制信道受限的问题。

具体实施方式
为了更好地理解本申请的上述目的、方案和优势,下文提供了详细描述。该详细描述通过使用框图、流程图等附图和/或示例,阐明了装置和/或方法的各种实施方式。在这些框图、流程图和/或示例中,包含一个或多个功能和/或操作。本领域技术人员将理解到:这些框图、流程图或示例内的各个功能和/或操作,能够通过各种各样的硬件、软件、固件单独或共同实施,或者通过硬件、软件和固件的任意组合实施。
本申请中,网络设备针对M个终端设备集合中的N个终端设备发起的随机接入过程,发送同一条随机接入控制消息,该同一条随机接入控制消息用于指示网络设备针对该N个终端设备的同一处理结果,消息中包括终端集合标识信息,用于标识所述N个终端设备;终端设备在收到随机接入控制消息后,获取消息中的终端集合标识信息,并在该终端集合标识信息所标识的所述N个终端设备中包括自身时,根据收到的随机接入控制消息确定网络设备对终端设备发起的随机接入过程的处理结果,其中,M和N为正整数;
其中,网络设备使用同一条随机接入拒绝消息向M个终端设备集合中的N个终端设备指示随机接入过程的同一处理结果,可节省发送随机接入拒绝 消息所占用的控制信道资源,解决了随机接入过程中的控制信道受限的问题。
进一步地,针对同一个终端设备集合的上述同一条随机接入控制消息可放在下行控制信道的同一资源位置处发送,由于集合内的终端设备共用下行控制信道的同一资源位置,可以节省下行控制信道的资源占用;
或者,针对M个终端设备集合的上述同一条随机接入控制消息可放在下行控制信道的同一资源位置处发送,M个终端设备集合中的终端设备共用下行控制信道的同一资源位置,进一步节省下行控制信道的资源占用。
目前M2M系统中,随机接入响应消息和随机接入拒绝消息都是在UE专有的PDCCH资源上发送的。当UE在随机接入信道(Random Access CHannel,RACH)资源上向基站发送随机接入请求消息后,基站会根据当前网络的拥塞情况,向UE发送随机接入响应消息或者随机接入拒绝消息。短时间内大量UE的随机接入会导致网络设备在向这些大量UE发送随机接入响应消息或者随机接入拒绝消息时,PDCCH资源受限。
本申请提出的共用下行控制信道的资源位置方式的一种典型的应用场景如下所述:
M2M系统中,由于网络拥塞导致网络设备需要拒绝终端设备发起的随机接入过程,而在M2M系统中,由于网络拥塞引起的随机接入拒绝通常在一段时间内要拒绝大量终端设备而不仅仅是单个终端设备,因此采用上述共用下行控制信道的资源位置的方式,可降低下行控制信道的开销,节省出来的资源可用于终端设备数据传输调度等专有信息的发送,则可进一步提高数据传输效率。
当前,除了M2M系统的上述场景之外,在网络设备向大量终端设备发送随机接入响应消息时,也可能会出现PDCCH资源受限的问题。采用本申请同样可以解决该场景下的问题。
此外,除了M2M系统之外,对于其他存在随机接入过程的应用场景,也可以通过采用本申请,节省网络设备的下行控制信道资源。
下面,对本申请涉及的基本概念进行解释。需要说明的是,这些解释是 为了让本申请更容易被理解,而不应该视为对本申请所要求的保护范围的限定。
1、随机接入过程
目前无线通信系统中,随机接入过程存在基于竞争的方式和基于非竞争的方式。
在基于非竞争的随机接入中,基站会为终端设备分配对应的前导码(Preamble)和接入资源;在基于竞争的随机接入中,终端设备会随机选择接入资源(比如:对于LTE系统,该接入资源为RACH资源)进行前导码的发送,然后接收随机接入响应、发送消息3(Message3,MSG3),以及接收竞争冲突解决消息。
2、M2M通信
M2M通信是机器与机器之间通过无线网络互相传递信息和数据的通信,是移动通信下一步发展的重要方向。它广泛应用于多个领域,包括智能交通、楼控系统、家庭智能控制系统、视频监控系统、工业监测等。一种示意性的网络结构如图2所示。其中,冰箱、电表、汽车等均可作为M2M系统中的终端设备,通过基站、传输网络等与其他终端设备进行通信,比如:电表与汽车之间的通信等。
3、M2M系统中随机接入过程触发的可能原因可包括但不限于如下几项:
1)终端设备在初始接入过程中发起随机接入过程
比如:当从无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)空闲态(RRC_IDLE)态到RRC连接态(RRC_CONNECTED)建立无线连接时,终端设备可发起随机接入过程;
2)在RRC连接重建过程(RRC Connection Re-establishment procedure)中终端设备发起随机接入过程;
3)在下行数据到达时触发随机接入过程
基站有下行数据需要发送给终端设备,且确定终端设备处于RRC连接态,但终端设备处于上行失步状态,则基站指示终端设备发起随机接入过程。
4)在上行数据到达时触发随机接入过程
终端设备处于RRC连接态,当终端设备有上行数据需要发送给基站,却发现自身处于上行失步状态,则终端设备发起随机接入过程。
4、随机接入控制消息
随机接入控制消息包括但不限于随机接入响应消息和随机接入拒绝消息,可指网络设备针对终端设备发送的随机接入请求消息的响应消息。
其中,随机接入响应消息用于指示响应终端设备发起的随机接入过程,即允许终端设备的随机接入请求;随机接入拒绝消息用于指示拒绝终端设备发起的随机接入过程。
5、终端设备集合
终端设备集合是由一个或多个终端设备组成的集合,通常一个终端设备集合中包括多个终端设备。本申请中,相同的终端设备集合中的终端设备具有如下特征中的至少一个:
1)属于相同的覆盖等级;
2)设备标识属于相同的设备标识集合;
3)属于相同的优先级集合。比如:业务优先级、调度优先级、寻呼优先级等
下面逐一说明上述特征:
1)覆盖等级
在一个小区覆盖范围内,通常存在多个终端设备,这多个终端设备距离基站的远近可能不同,所处的无线环境也可能不同,与小区天线之间的遮挡物也可能不同,这样会造成小区天线发射的同一信道到不同终端设备时,信号强度不同,造成对于不同的终端设备,信号接收强度不同,达到的覆盖效果不同。
依据不同的覆盖效果,比如:依据信道到达终端设备的衰减不同,可将上述多个终端设备分为多个覆盖等级,属于相同的覆盖等级的终端设备覆盖小区相近。
2)设备标识集合
比如:偶数的设备标识属于一个设备标识集合,奇数的设备标识属于另一个设备标识集合。
再比如:将设备标识进行模10运算,余1的属于设备标识集合1,余2的属于集合标识集合2,以此类推,余0的属于设备标识集合10。
划分设备标识集合的方法有很多,不限于上述举例。
3)优先级集合
比如:预先定义业务优先级,具有相同的或相近的业务优先级的终端设备属于一个优先级集合。
具体地,比如定义了10个业务优先级1~10,按照编号由小到大的顺序,优先级依次降低,则可定义优先级集合1包括优先级1~优先级4,优先级集合2包括优先级5~优先级7,优先级集合3包括优先级8~优先级10。
再比如:预先定义终端设备优先级,优先级高的终端设备获得网络资源的概率比优先级低的终端设备高。
具体地,比如:定义了4个终端设备优先级1~4,按照编号由小到大的顺序,优先级依次降低,则可定义优先级集合1包括优先级1、2,优先级集合2包括优先级3、4。
划分优先级集合的方法有很多,不限于上述举例。
6、下行控制信道
随机接入拒绝消息需要通过下行控制信道发送,该下行控制信道可包括:逻辑信道、传输信道和物理信道中的一种或多种。
比如:该下行控制信道可为物理信道。比如:该物理信道可为目前M2M系统中的PDCCH信道。
7、下行控制信道的资源位置
本申请中,网络设备在发送随机接入控制消息时,通过下行控制信道承载该随机接入控制消息。
其中,M个终端设备集合可对应下行控制信道的同一资源位置;或者
M个终端设备集合对应下行控制信道的不同资源位置,比如:M个终端设备集合对应该下行控制信道的M个不同资源位置。
8、系统和网络
术语“系统”和“网络”在本申请中常被可互换使用。本申请中术语“和/或”,仅仅是一种描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。另外,本文中字符“/”,一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
以上介绍了本申请涉及的基本概念,下面,结合附图对本申请加以详细说明。

其中,终端设备302可以是无线终端,无线终端可以是指向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备,具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、或连接到无线调制解调器的其他处理设备。无线终端可以经无线接入网(例如,RAN,Radio Access Network)与一个或多个核心网进行通信,无线终端可以是移动终端,如移动电话(或称为“蜂窝”电话)和具有移动终端的计算机,例如,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,它们与无线接入网交换语言和/或数据。例如,个人通信业务(PCS,Personal Communication Service)电话、无绳电话、会话发起协议(SIP)话机、无线本地环路(WLL,Wireless Local Loop)站、个人数字助理(PDA,Personal Digital Assistant)等设备。无线终端也可以称为订户单元(Subscriber Unit)、订户站(Subscriber Station),移动站(Mobile Station)、移动台(Mobile)、远程站(Remote Station)、接入点(Access Point)、远程终端(Remote Terminal)、接入终端(Access Terminal)、用户终端(User Terminal)、用户代理(User Agent)、用户设备(User  Device)、或用户设备(User Equipment)。
网络设备301可包括基站,或用于控制基站的无线资源管理设备,或包括基站和用于控制基站的无线资源管理设备;其中基站可为宏站或小站,比如:小小区(small cell)、微小区(pico cell)等,基站也可为家庭基站,比如:家庭节点B(Home NodeB,HNB)、家庭演进节点B(Home eNodeB,HeNB)等,基站也可包括中继节点(relay)等。
比如:对于TDD LTE、FDD LTE或LTE-A等LTE系统,本申请提供的无线通信系统中的网络设备101可为演进节点B(evolved NodeB,eNodeB),终端设备302可为UE;对于TD-SCDMA系统或WCDMA系统,本申请提供的无线通信系统中的网络设备301可包括:节点B(NodeB)和/或无线网络控制器(Radio Network Controller,RNC),终端设备302可为UE;对于GSM系统,本申请提供的中的网络设备101可包括基站收发台(Base Transceiver Station,BTS)和/或基站控制器(Base Station Controller,BSC),终端设备302为移动台(Mobile Station,MS);对于WiFi系统,网络设备301可包括:接入点(Access Point,AP)和/或接入控制器(Access Controller,AC),终端设备302可为站点(STAtion,STA)。
图4示出了网络设备301和终端设备302交互的流程图。如图4所示,该流程包括如下步骤:
S401:终端设备302向网络设备301发送随机接入请求消息,请求接入无线通信系统中;
可能存在多个终端设备302在一个时间段内向网络设备301发送随机接入请求消息;
S402:网络设备301在收到各个终端设备302发送的随机接入请求消息后,确定对各个终端设备302发起的随机接入过程的处理结果;
通常,各个终端设备302不会完全在同一时刻发起随机接入过程,因此,网络设备301可在收到一个终端设备302发送的随机接入请求消息后,即确定对该终端设备302的处理结果,而无需等到收到各个终端设备302发送的 随机接入请求消息后再确定各个终端设备302发起的随机接入过程的处理结果。
这里网络设备301确定了对M个终端设备集合中的N个终端设备302发起的随机接入过程的同一处理结果;
S403:网络设备301向这M个终端设备集合中的N个终端设备302发送同一条随机接入控制消息,消息中携带终端集合标识信息,用于标识该N个终端设备302;
网络设备301可在确定对一个终端设备302发起的随机接入过程的处理结果后,在一段时间内等待其他终端设备302发送的随机接入请求消息,并确定针对其他终端设备302发起的随机接入过程的处理结果,然后通过同一条随机接入控制消息指示对这些终端设备302发起的随机接入过程的同一处理结果。
S404:终端设备302收到随机接入控制消息后,从消息中获取终端集合标识信息,在终端集合标识信息所标识的终端设备中包括自身时,根据随机接入控制消息确定自身发起的随机接入过程的处理结果。
可选地,若终端集合标识信息所标识的终端设备不包括自身终端集合标识信息终端集合标识信息时,可忽略该随机接入控制消息,不进行进一步的处理。
其中步骤S402中,网络设备301可确定针对M个终端设备集合中的N个终端设备302的发起的随机接入过程的同一处理结果。
下面,按照M的不同取值分别说明步骤S403中网络设备301发送随机接入控制消息,终端设备302接收随机接入控制消息的方案。
1、M≥2
如前所述,M≥2表示网络设备301可针对多个终端设备集合中的多个终端设备302发送同一条随机接入控制消息。
按照随机接入控制消息占用的下行控制信道的资源位置,又可区分下列两种可能的情形:
情形一
该同一条随机接入控制消息在该M个终端设备集合对应的下行控制信道的同一资源位置发送,这样可极大节省下行控制信道的资源。
相应地,终端设备302可在上述M个终端设备集合对应的下行控制信道的同一资源位置处接收随机接入控制消息。
可选地,在网络设备301向所述N个终端设备302发送上述同一条随机接入控制消息之前,网络设备301广播信道资源位置信息,该信道资源位置信息用于指示该下行控制信道的同一资源位置。
相应地,终端设备302接收网络设备301广播的信道资源位置信息,根据该信道资源位置信息确定下行控制信道上发送随机接入控制消息的上述同一资源位置。
情形二
该同一条随机接入控制消息可分别在M个终端设备集合对应的下行控制信道的不同资源位置发送,比如:在M个终端设备集合对应的下行控制信道的M个不同资源位置发送。
可选地,在网络设备301向N个终端设备302发送上述同一条随机接入控制消息之前,网络设备301广播信道资源位置信息,该信道资源位置信息用于指示M个终端设备集合分别对应的下行控制信道上发送随机接入控制消息占用的资源位置。
相应地,终端设备302接收网络设备301广播的信道资源位置信息,根据该信道资源位置信息,以及自身所属的终端设备集合,确定下行控制信道上发送给自身所属的终端设备集合的随机接入控制消息所占用的资源。
情形二中,属于不同的终端设备集合中的终端设备302在下行控制信道的不同资源位置处接收随机接入控制消息,可以实现对不同终端设备集合的区别处理。
以具有不同覆盖等级的终端设备302属于不同的终端设备集合为例,由于不同覆盖等级下,终端设备302接收网络设备301发射的信号的接收能力 不同,采用情形二中的方案,可实现为不同覆盖等级的终端设备302分配不同的下行控制信道资源,比如:为覆盖较差的终端设备302分配抗干扰能力较高的下行控制信道的资源,比如:这些资源采用低阶调制方式,鲁棒的信道编码方式,比如:在这些信道上采用更多重复次数,以提高这些终端设备302的信号接收质量。
2、M=1
M=1表示网络设备301可针对一个终端设备集合中的一个或多个终端设备302发送同一条随机接入控制消息。
可选地,网络设备301在下行控制信道中,N个终端设备302所属的同一终端设备302集合对应的资源位置发送随机接入控制消息。
相应地,终端设备302在下行控制信道中自身所属的终端设备集合所对应的资源位置处接收随机接入控制消息。
可选地,在网络设备301向所述N个终端设备302发送同一条随机接入控制消息之前,网络设备301广播信道资源位置信息,该信道资源位置信息用于指示下行控制信道中同一终端设备集合对应的资源位置。
相应地,终端设备302接收网络设备301广播的信道资源位置信息,根据该信道资源位置信息确定自身所属的终端设备集合对应的资源位置。
其中,M=1可视为M≥2中情形二,即针对不同的终端设备集合,网络设备301在发送同一条随机接入控制消息时占用的下行控制信道的资源不同。
步骤S403中,网络设备301在不同的下行控制信道的资源位置发送随机接入控制消息的一个示例可参考后面的示例一。
步骤S403和步骤S404中,随机接入控制消息中的终端集合标识信息包括下列信息中的一种或多种:
1、类型信息
类型信息用于指示N个终端设备302所属的同一种终端设备类型;
通过该方式,网络设备301可通过同一条随机接入控制消息,通知属于同一种终端设备类型的多个终端设备302,对这多个终端设备302发起的随机 接入过程的处理结果。
通过与区域信息结合在一起,可针对随机接入资源所位于的同一个随机接入资源区域中,具有指定终端设备类型的多个终端设备302进行随机接入控制。
比如:在同一个随机接入资源区域中,可能发起随机接入的终端设备302有多种类型,比如:紧急上报的终端设备类型和非紧急上报的终端设备类型,在某些情形下,网络设备301可能仅需要拒绝终端设备类型为非紧急上报终端设备的终端设备302,则会通过该类型信息指示随机接入控制消息所针对的终端设备302的类型仅为非紧急上报终端设备。
该类型信息可包括一项或多项信息,比如:示例二中表2和表4中的信元(Information Element,IE)特殊UE指示(SpecialUE indication),可用于指示紧急上报的终端设备类型和非紧急上报的终端设备类型。再比如:表2和表4中的IE应用指示(application indicator),该IE可用于指示终端设备302所属的应用群组,4bit可指示16个应用群组。
2、区域信息
区域信息用于指示:N个终端设备302在发起的随机接入过程中使用的随机接入资源所位于的同一个随机接入资源区域。
通过该方式,网络设备301可通过同一条随机接入控制消息,通知位于同一个随机接入资源区域的多个终端设备302,对这多个终端设备302发起的随机接入过程的处理结果。
其中,区域信息可包括随机接入资源所在帧号和帧内位置信息;
随机接入资源所在帧号,用于指示上述同一个随机接入资源区域位于的随机接入资源所在帧的帧号,比如:示例二中表1~表4中的IE:PRACH帧。
帧内位置信息,用于指示在随机接入资源所在帧号所指示的帧中,上述同一个随机接入资源区域的位置,比如:示例二中表2和表4中的IE:PRACH位置指示(PRACH position indication)
其中,帧内位置信息的实现可采用下列方式中的一种:
方式一
帧内位置信息包括:频域起始位置信息、频域终止位置信息、时域起始位置信息和时域终止位置信息;
方式二
帧内位置信息包括:频域起始位置信息、频域带宽、时域起始位置信息和时域持续时长;
方式三
帧内位置信息包括:时域位置信息,同一个随机接入资源区域在频域上占用随机接入信道所占用的整个带宽,在时域上占用时域位置信息所指示的一个或多个时间单元;
方式四
帧内位置信息包括:频域位置信息,同一个随机接入资源区域在频域上占用频域位置信息所指示的一个或多个频域单元,在时域上占用随机接入信道所占用的整个时间段;
方式五
帧内位置信息包括:一个或多个随机接入信道资源索引,每一个随机接入信道资源索引用于指示一个终端设备302发送随机接入请求消息所使用的随机接入信道的资源。
若采用帧内位置信息的实现方式五,则步骤S403之前,网络设备301网络设备301可广播随机接入信道资源索引与随机接入信道资源的对应关系;
或者,随机接入信道资源索引与随机接入信道资源的对应关系是协议预先规定的。
随机接入控制消息的一个示例可参考后面的示例三。
此外,也可以在同一条随机接入控制消息中指示对于不同的终端设备组的不同处理结果。这里不同的终端设备组中的每个组包括一个或多个终端设备,即前述的N个终端设备,但对于不同的组,N可以不同。一个具体的例子可参考后面的示例四。
【示例一】
示例一中,网络设备301发送的随机接入控制消息为随机接入拒绝消息,网络设备301发送随机接入拒绝消息占用的下行控制信道为PDCCH,不同终端设备集合中的终端设备属于不同的覆盖等级。
图5为示例一中,网络设备301发送随机接入拒绝消息占用的PDCCH资源的示意图。
如图5所示,网络设备301为每个覆盖等级配置公共的PDCCH资源,该公共的PDCCH资源可用于向对应的覆盖等级的终端设备302发送随机接入拒绝消息。
比如:网络设备301可将每个覆盖等级PDCCH资源块的一部分位置配置为该覆盖等级的公共的PDCCH资源,并在系统消息中指示配置的PDCCH资源。
比如:网络设备301可在系统消息(System Information,SI)中用一个偏移(offset)信元指示每个覆盖等级的PDCCH资源中的前面多少个时隙是该覆盖等级的公共PDCCH资源。
其中,系统消息在物理广播信道(Physical Broadcast CHannel,PBCH)上发送。图5中,CC(Coverage Class)表示覆盖等级,不同编号表示不同的覆盖等级。PDCCH资源中,CC1~CC4标记的资源分别是网络设备301配置的覆盖等级1~覆盖等级4的公共的PDCCH资源。
【示例二】
示例二中,以M2M系统为例,对随机接入响应消息举例说明。
目前M2M系统中,随机接入响应消息的格式可如表1所示。
表1 目前M2M系统中上行接入响应消息举例
Figure PCTCN2015093925-appb-000001
Figure PCTCN2015093925-appb-000002
本申请中,以M2M系统为例,随机接入响应消息的格式可如表2所示。
表2 本申请中公共信道的上行接入响应消息举例
Figure PCTCN2015093925-appb-000003
如图6所示,本申请中,随机接入响应消息可采用分段指示的方法,首先通过公共的随机接入响应消息指示响应终端设备发起的随机接入过程,然后,通过终端设备专用的随机接入响应消息指示终端设备发送消息3(Message3,Msg3)可使用的上行资源等信息。比如:图6中,通过在公共的PDCCH资源上发送公共的随机接入响应消息,指示包括UE1、UE2和UE3在内的多个UE可以进行随机接入,再通过UE专用的PDCCH资源分别向UE1、UE2和UE3指示发送Msg3可使用的上行资源。若在公共PDCCH资源收到随机接入响应消息中的终端集合标识信息所指示的终端不包括自身时,则终端设备可不必再读取专用的随机接入响应消息,降低了终端设备的处理负荷。
这样设计的好处在于,若终端设备在根据公共的随机接入响应消息确定自身发起的随机接入过程被响应时,才读取后面的专用的随机接入响应消息,降低了终端设备的处理负荷。
目前M2M系统中,随机接入拒绝消息的格式可如表3所示。
表3、上行接入拒绝消息(Uplink access reject message)举例
Figure PCTCN2015093925-appb-000004
其中,Message ID指示消息类型,说明是随机接入拒绝消息;
MS access Identity是指被拒绝接入的终端设备标识(UE ID);
物理随机接入信道(Physical Random Access CHannel,PRACH)帧,表示被拒绝的随机接入请求消息占用的RACH资源所在帧的帧号;
PRACH起始位置(PRACH start position)表示PRACH资源在PRACH 帧中的起始位置;
等待时间(Wait time)表示该终端设备至少要等待多长时间后才能发起随机接入。
本申请中,以M2M系统为例,随机接入拒绝消息的格式可如表4所示。
表4 本申请中上行接入拒绝消息举例
Figure PCTCN2015093925-appb-000005
图7示出了表3和表4中的IE等待时间的含义。终端设备302向网络设备301发送随机接入请求消息,发起随机接入过程,网络设备301向终端设 备302发送随机接入拒绝消息,消息中携带IE等待时间。终端设备302收到该随机接入拒绝消息后,按照消息中的“等待时间”等待,在等待时间结束时,再次向网络设备301发送随机接入请求消息。图7中Ntrans_max指示终端设备302发送随机接入请求消息的次数。现在的最大发送随机接入请求的次数会在系统消息里指示。不需要在回应消息里指示。但是可以作为备选IE。
以帧内位置信息的实现方式五为例,帧内位置信息包括:一个或多个随机接入信道资源索引,每一个随机接入信道资源索引用于指示一个终端设备302发送随机接入请求消息所使用的随机接入信道的资源。
参考图8,随机接入请求1~随机接入请求10分别表示10个随机接入信道资源索引。假设图8示出的是一个帧中的随机接入资源(RACH资源),随机接入信道资源索引值可从左到右,从上到下依次增加。
比如:若网络设备301要拒绝PRACH帧中的随机接入信道资源索引为1和2的随机接入资源上的随机接入请求,则可在随机接入拒绝消息中设置PRACH位置指示包括随机接入请求1和随机接入请求2即可。
再比如:在帧内位置信息的实现方式五下,帧内位置信息包括两个IE:PRACH起始位置指示(PRACH start position indication)和持续个数(duration),若网络设备301要拒绝某段时频资源内发起的所有随机接入过程,则可设置该两个IE实现。比如:设置PRACH起始位置指示为“1”,表明被拒绝的随机接入过程所占用的随机接入资源的起始位置是该帧中的第一个索引所指示的随机接入资源,设置持续个数为“3”,表明拒绝从起始位置开始的连续3个随机接入资源上发起的随机接入过程。
若网络设备301要拒绝PRACH帧中一段时间内的所有终端设备302发起的随机接入过程,则可通过帧内位置信息的方式三实现,指示帧内的起始时隙号和终止时隙号,指示在该时间范围内的PRACH占用的整个带宽上的所有随机接入资源上发起的随机接入过程被拒绝。或者,仍采用方式三,预先定义时域位置索引与随机接入资源占用的时域位置的对应关系。如图8所示,可通过设置帧内位置信息包括时域位置索引1~3,则可指示该PRACH帧中, 该段时间内发起的所有随机接入过程。
若网络设备301要拒绝PRACH帧中一段频域资源内的所有终端设备302发起的随机接入过程,则可通过帧内位置信息的方式四实现,指示帧内的起始频域位置和终止频域位置,指示PRACH帧持续的整个时间段内在该频域范围内的所有随机接入资源上发起的随机接入过程被拒绝。或者,仍采用方式四,预先定义频域位置索引与随机接入资源占用的频域位置的对应关系。如图8所示,可通过设置帧内位置信息包括频域位置索引1和3,则可指示该PRACH帧持续的整个时间段内,这两个频域范围内的所有随机接入资源上发起的随机接入过程被拒绝。
若网络设备301要拒绝PRACH帧中的一段频域资源内的指定时间段内的所有终端设备302发起的随机接入资源,则可通过帧内位置信息的方式一或方式二来实现。以方式一为例,帧内位置信息可包括4个IE:PRACH频域起始位置指示、PRACH频域终止位置指示、PRACH时域起始位置指示和PRACH时域终止位置指示。
参考图8,若PRACH频域起始位置指示为“1”,PRACH频域终止位置指示为“2”、PRACH时域起始位置指示为“2”,PRACH时域终止位置指示为“4”,则表示拒绝图8中上面两行,右面三列的随机接入资源上发起的所有随机接入过程。
对比表1和表2,以及对比表3和表4可见,示例二中,将原来在终端设备专用的下行控制信道上发送的随机接入控制消息,改为在公共的下行控制信道发送,消息格式上删减了IE移动台接入标识,增加了IE特殊UE指示,结合PRACH位置指示,可以拒绝某一类UE在某一些随机接入资源上发起的随机接入过程。
通过对随机接入控制消息的改进,去掉了移动台接入标识,减小了消息长度,降低了信令开销。
【示例三】
示例三中,以随机接入拒绝消息为例,说明终端设备302和网络设备301 在随机接入过程中的处理流程。如图9所示,该流程包括如下步骤:
S900:网络设备301向各个终端设备302(这里包括终端设备302A~终端设备302D,还可包括其他终端设备302)发送系统消息,指示随机接入资源的位置,终端设备302读取基站发送的该系统消息,获得随机接入资源的位置;
其中,终端设备302A~终端设备302C属于覆盖等级1,终端设备302D属于覆盖等级合2;
S901:终端设备302A~终端设备302D分别选择随机接入资源发送随机接入请求消息;
S902:网络设备301收到各个终端设备302发送的随机接入请求消息后,根据系统拥塞情况,决定拒绝覆盖等级1中、在部分随机接入资源上、由非紧急上报的终端设备类型的终端设备302发起的随机接入过程;
S903:网络设备301在PDCCH上的覆盖等级1对应的资源上发送随机接入拒绝消息,并通过表4中的IE特殊UE指示,指示拒绝由非紧急终端设备类型的终端设备302发起的随机接入过程,以及通过表4中的IE PRACH位置指示,指示部分随机接入资源上发起的随机接入过程被拒绝。
终端设备302A~终端设备302C在PDCCH上的覆盖等级1对应的资源上接收网络设备301发送的随机接入拒绝消息;
S904:终端设备302B和终端设备302A根据终端集合标识信息,确定自身发起的随机接入过程被拒绝;
S905:由于终端设备302C具有紧急呼叫的终端设备类型,则终端集合标识信息中指示的随机接入资源不包括终端设备302C发送随机接入请求消息占用的随机接入资源,则忽略该随机接入拒绝消息。
被拒绝的终端设备302等待“等待时间”后再发起随机接入过程。
示例一中,网络设备301在公共的PDCCH上发送群组的随机接入拒绝消息,拒绝的是某一些随机接入资源上的的某些类型的终端设备302接入,批量拒绝节省了PDCCH资源。
【示例四】
假设在同一条随机接入控制消息中指示对于P个终端设备组的随机接入过程的处理结果,P为正整数。可存在P个指示信息,每个指示信息对应于一个终端设备组,该指示信息用于指示对应的终端设备组中的所有终端设备302发起的随机接入过程是被响应还是被拒绝,该指示信息包括1比特,该比特取值“0”表示对应的终端设备组中的所有终端设备302发起的随机接入过程被响应,取值“1”表示对应的终端设备组中的所有终端设备302发起的随机接入过程被拒绝。
进一步,可选地,该P个指示信息可组成位图(bitmap),该bitmap中的每一位对应于一个前述的随机接入资源区域,该bitmap中的P位对应于P个随机接入资源区域。bitmap中某一位置“0”,表明对应的随机接入资源区域上的随机接入过程都被响应,置“1”表明对应的随机接入资源区域上的随机接入过程都被拒绝。
图10为本申请提供的第一种网络设备的结构示意图。如图10所示,该网络设备包括:
