The processor 240 can include a transmit data processor 241, a controller 242, and a receive data processor 243 for executing instructions stored by the memory 250 and executing a series of communication operations driven by the instructions. The functions of the demodulator 220 and the modulator 230 are respectively to modulate the transmission signal from the processor 240 and transmit it on the antenna (transmission channel), and demodulate the air interface reception signal to the processor 240 of the back end for communication protocol. Processing (receiving channel). Taking the process of performing the uplink scheduling by the base station 20 as an example, the process of receiving the PUCCH signal by the base station is: the processor 240 allocates a suitable physical resource to the UE 10, and receives, by the transceiver 210, the PUCCH signal sent by the UE 10 on the corresponding physical resource. Signal demodulation is then performed in demodulator 230 and signal analysis is performed in processor 240. The processor 240, the memory 250, the receiver 212 and the transmitter 211, and the bus system (not shown) may be implemented by one or more chips. For example, the processor 240, the memory 250, the receiver 212, the transmitter 211, The modulator 220, the demodulator 230, and the bus system may be fully integrated in one chip, or the processor 240, the receiver 212, the transmitter 211, the modulator 220, the demodulator 230, and the bus system may be integrated in one chip. The memory 250 is integrated in another chip, and the specific form is not limited herein.

4 is a process interaction diagram of uplink scheduling according to an embodiment of the present invention. The UE 10, the eNodeB 20, the Core Network ("CN") 30, and the Application Server 40 are shown in FIG. According to FIG. 4, the SR/BSR-based uplink scheduling process is as follows:

401. The UE 10 creates data and packages the data.

402. The UE 10 sends a Scheduling Request (SSR) message to the eNodeB 20.

The SR message only contains 1 bit of information, and is used to notify the eNodeB 20 that it has uplink data to be sent.

403. The eNodeB 20 sends a Grant (Grant) message to the UE 10.

The Grant message is used to allocate the uplink resource to the UE 10. The uplink resource is used by the UE 10 to send buffer information, that is, a Buffer Statue Report (BSR) message.

404. The UE 10 sends a BSR message and partial data to the eNodeB 20.

The UE 10 sends a BSR message to the eNodeB 20 by using the uplink resource indicated in the Grant message in 403 to inform the eNodeB 20 of the size of its own uplink data to be transmitted. If the uplink resource is still available at this time, the UE 10 may also send part of the uplink data while transmitting the BSR message.

405. When the UE 10 also transmits partial data in 404, the eNodeB 20 transmits the data to the CN 30 and is sent by the CN 30 to the application server 40.

406. The base station sends a Grant message to the UE 10 according to the BSR information reported by the UE 10.

The eNodeB 20 learns the size of the uplink data to be sent by the UE 10 according to the BSR message sent by the UE 10, so as to continue to allocate suitable uplink resources for the UE 10.

407. The UE 10 sends the packetized uplink data to the eNodeB 20 on the corresponding uplink resource according to the newly received Grant message.

408. The eNodeB 20 sends the uplink data to the CN 30, and sends it to the application server 40 by the CN 30.

Specifically, if the amount of data of the UE 10 is large, the base station eNodeB 20 may continue to send a Grant to the user, and repeatedly perform 406 to 408 to allocate more uplink resources to the user until the user's All data is sent.

As can be seen from FIG. 4, in a complete uplink scheduling process, if the data packet to be transmitted by the UE 10 is small, the transmission of the SR and the BSR occupies most of the entire data transmission, resulting in a long delay. .

To this end, the embodiment of the present invention provides a method for uplink scheduling, which utilizes redundant code channels in uplink resources allocated by the base station to the user equipment, optimizes the process of uplink scheduling, and shortens the delay in the uplink scheduling process.

FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of a frame structure of an LTE communication system. As shown in FIG. 5, the length of each radio frame is 10 ms, each radio frame is composed of 10 subframes, each subframe has a length of 1 ms, and each subframe is composed of 2 slots, wherein Ts=1/30.72e6 second.

6 is a schematic diagram showing the structure of uplink and downlink time-frequency resources of an LTE communication system. As shown in Figure 6, each time slot is included in the time domain.

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing ("OFDM") symbols, including in the frequency domain

Physical Resource Block ("PRB"). Each PRB is included in the frequency domain

Subcarriers. Different working bandwidths are implemented by configuring different numbers of PRBs. For example, when the bandwidth is 1.4MHz, 3MHz, 5MHz, 10MHz, 15MHz, 20MHz, the number of PRBs is 6, 15, 25, 50, respectively. 75, 100. Number of OFDM symbols

The value is related to the type of Cyclic Prefix ("CP"). The LTE TDD system supports two CP types: normal CP and extended CP. Table 1 shows the relationship between the time-frequency resource configuration parameters and the CP type.

Table I

In a conventional UMTS system or an LTE system, a Transmission Time Interval ("TTI") occupies a number of OFDM symbols, which are used to transmit one of the above physical resource blocks. At the receiving end, all OFDM symbols in one TTI need to be collected to perform demodulation and decoding operations, and corresponding Acknowledge ("ACK") feedback and possible retransmission must also be performed in the complete TTI. . That is, the TTI is the minimum data transfer time that the wireless link can demodulate. Taking the UMTS system as an example, the UE 10 receives a high speed physical downlink shared channel (High Speed-Physical Downlink Shared The channel (referred to as "PDSCH") signal is demodulated and decoded, and then the Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request Acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) is fed back to the base station 20; the base station 20 receives the HARQ sent by the UE 10. -ACK to determine if a retransmission or a new transmission is to be made.

Figure 7 is a schematic diagram of feedback delay in a UMTS system. FIG. 7 includes the UE 10 transmitting control information on a High-Speed Shared Control Channel (HS-SCCH), and a High-Speed Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH). The transmission of the data, and the subframe diagram of the UE 10 feeding back the ACK message on the Physical Downlink Control Channel ("HS-PDCCH"), it can be seen that the earliest retransmission time corresponding to the subframe 0 It is subframe 6, that is, UE 10 can only retransmit after waiting for subframe 6, which is mainly limited by the demodulation decoding time, TTI length and subframe structure of UE 10.

The timing in the LTE system is also similar. One TTI in the UMTS system is 2 ms, and one TTI in the LTE system is 1 ms. By reducing the TTI length, the end-to-end delay can be reduced. Therefore, shortening the TTI to speed up HARQ-ACK feedback and retransmission of data is also a solution to shorten the end-to-end delay of data. In order to coexist in the same frequency band as the legacy LTE system, the frame structure of the legacy LTE can be used to maintain the original OFDM symbol and reduce the number of OFDM symbols in each TTI, that is, the short TTI system. Figure 8 is a block diagram showing the structure of a single symbol TTI system. Each OFDM symbol in FIG. 8 is only 1/14 ms, and a Round-Trip Time ("RTT") is 8 OFDM symbols (about 600 ms), which can satisfy a low latency target with a delay of less than 1 ms.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the SR channel or the HARQ-ACK message is transmitted by using the redundant code channel of the Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) in the LTE system, thereby shortening the uplink scheduling process. Delay.

In a conventional LTE system, a PUCCH is used to transmit uplink control information (such as SR, HARQ-ACK, Channel State Information (CSI), etc.), and the PUCCH can be subdivided into a plurality of formats. As shown in Table 2, there are four formats. According to the PUCCH format shown in Table 2, PUCCH format 1 is specifically used to send SRs, and carries information patterns and negative acknowledgements (Negative Acknowledge, referred to as “NACK”. The information pattern is consistent; the last type (1b with channel selection) is used for carrier aggregation (Carrier Aggregation ("CA"); and PUCCH format 1a and 1b are used for simultaneous transmission of SR and HARQ-ACK. At this time, in order to save user power, LTE is the two letters. The information is sent together, and different SR and HARQ-ACK information combinations are distinguished by different physical resources and different information patterns. Among them, Binary Phase Shift Keying ("BPSK") and Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) are two different digital modulation methods. The specific case of SR and HARQ-ACK transmission is described in conjunction with FIG.

Table II

Figure 9 is a schematic diagram of the case of SR and HARQ-ACK multiplexing. As shown in FIG. 9, if only a certain subframe is configured with the SR resource, the UE 10 may only send the SR on the SR resource, and the base station 20 considers that the UE 10 sends the SR if the signal is detected on the resource; The frame is configured with both the SR resource and the HARQ-ACK resource, indicating that there must be a HARQ-ACK to be sent at this time, and the UE 10 transmits the HARQ-ACK information on the HARQ-ACK resource when the UE 10 does not need to transmit, when the UE 10 has The UE 10 transmits HARQ-ACK information on the SR resource when the SR needs to be transmitted. According to these rules, the base station 20 can detect the combination of information of the SR and the HARQ-ACK.

It should be noted that the base station 20 configures the SR resource for the UE 10 by using Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling, which is a semi-static configuration, and the base station 20 can periodically configure the UE 10 for the need. The HARQ-ACK resource configured by the base station 20 for the user equipment 10 may be dynamically scheduled and semi-statically configured. If the HARQ-ACK is corresponding to dynamically scheduled downlink data, the HARQ-ACK resource is passed. The downlink control signaling at the time of the dynamic scheduling is notified to the user equipment 10; if the HARQ-ACK is the downlink data corresponding to the semi-persistent scheduling, the HARQ-ACK resource is also configured according to the RRC signaling.

Sending an SR or HARQ-ACK on PUCCH format 1 occupies one PRB pair, and a predetermined pattern of frequency hopping is also performed in two slots of the same subframe. PUCCH format 1 requires only one OFDM symbol to be transmitted, and the OFMD symbol is multiplied by a reference signal sequence of length 12, corresponding to 12 subcarriers in the frequency domain. In addition, different cyclic shifts of the same reference signal sequence can achieve resource multiplexing for different users. The reference signal sequence can also be different (from the perspective of the protocol, the network can pass parameters)

To configure which reference signal sequence to use, that is, different users in the same cell may use different reference signal sequences at the same time, but different reference signal sequences are related, not completely Orthogonal. In the following description, it is assumed that the reference signal sequences used by different users are the same on the same PRB.

Because all the OFDM symbols in a TTI need to be collected for subsequent operations, the Orthogonal Complementary Code (OCC) is also used for each OFDM symbol in the sequence of length 12. ") Spreading is performed, corresponding to the OFDM symbols used for PUCCH transmission on each slot. The OCC code length is 4. For the second time slot, if the last OFDM symbol needs to transmit a Sounding Reference Signal (SRS), the OCC code length is shortened to 3.

For the above mapping process, reference may be made to FIG. 10. FIG. 10 is a mapping diagram of PUCCH format 1/1a/1b when a normal CP is used. When PUCCH format 1 is used for signal transmission, a reference signal (Reference Signal) on each OFDM symbol is used. RS") is a long 12 reference signal sequence that is also spread over the OCC code and then mapped to the OFDM symbols for the RS for each slot. When a normal CP is used, there are three OFDM symbols for each slot for transmitting the uplink RS, that is, the OCC code length is 3; when the extended CP is used, there are two OFDM symbols for each slot for transmitting the uplink RS, that is, OCC. The code length is 2.

Since the length of the OCC code of the RS may be different from the code length of the information part, the PUCCH format 1 user equipment that can be multiplexed in each PRB is at most the total number of cyclic shifts *max (the information part OCC code length, and the OCC code length of the RS) ). Obviously, the OCC code length of the RS is less than or equal to the information part OCC code length, that is, the number of PUCCH format 1 user equipments that can be multiplexed in each RB is limited by the RS. Therefore, the OCC code for the information part given in the current protocol has only three sequences regardless of the code length of 4 or the code length of 3. Table 3 and Table 4 show an OCC code sequence of code length 4 and an OCC code sequence of code length 3, respectively.

Table 3

Table 4

According to the above description, if the UE 10 has both the SR and the HARQ-ACK to be transmitted, the base station 20 configures the UE 10 with two sets of resources. In the existing LTE protocol, the two sets of resources of the same user refer to the information part and the RS. Two sets of resources are used, and the two sets of resources are distinguished by one of the PRB position, the different cyclic shift of the reference signal sequence, and the OCC code.

If the RS is considered to be the same set of resources for the UE 10, and the resources of the SR and the HARQ-ACK are distinguished by different OCC codes, then the remaining OCC code with the code length of 4 can be used. Because there is no need to distinguish between RSs for the same user device. Based on the scenario, the PRB resource of the SR is configured by the high layer signaling and is fixed; and the resource of the HARQ-ACK is calculated by using the location of the first Control Channel Element (CCE) of the corresponding PUCCH. Out, that is, it can be flexibly scheduled. The frequency of one subcarrier in the time domain is one OFDM symbol, which is called a resource element (Resource Element, referred to as “RE”), and each consecutive 4 REs is called a resource element group (Resource Element Group, referred to as “REG” for short). ), every 9 REGs is called 1 CCE. If the PRB position and the reference signal sequence of the same user's SR and HARQ-ACK resources are to be the same cyclic shift, it means that the HARQ-ACK resources are also fixed, which will definitely affect the scheduling flexibility. It also wastes because resources must be reserved for both SR and HARQ-ACK. Therefore, in the existing LTE protocol, the SR and HARQ-ACK of the same user equipment adopt two sets of resources that are completely independent.

In the prior art, a new PUCCH format is proposed, and SR and BSR information are sent together to reduce end-to-end delay. However, the following disadvantages exist: (1) a new PUCCH format needs to be designed and tested for performance testing, and the cost is high; (2) for large data packet services, the transmission time of SR and BSR accounts for the entire data transmission. The ratio is small and there is no need to do such optimization.

Therefore, the embodiment of the present invention optimizes the process of uplink scheduling by utilizing the redundant code channel of the PUCCH, thereby shortening the delay in the uplink scheduling process.

11 is a flow interaction diagram of a method for uplink scheduling according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 11, the specific process of the uplink scheduling includes:

1101. The base station 20 configures a HARQ-ACK resource and the HARQ-ACK resource pair for the UE 10. Affiliated resources.

Specifically, the processor 240 of the base station 20 configures the SR resource and the HARQ-ACK resource for transmitting the scheduling request SR message and the hybrid automatic retransmission acknowledgement HARQ-ACK message for the UE 10, and is configured with the HARQ-ACK resource corresponding thereto. An adjunct resource that allows the UE 10 to send an SR message and a HARQ-ACK message on the adjunct resource. The auxiliary resource here refers to the remaining OCC code track when the code length is 4, that is, the OCC redundant code channel corresponding to the HARQ-ACK resource. After the base station 20 configures the legacy uplink resource for transmitting the SR message and the HARQ-ACK message for the UE 10, and the reserved accessory resource, the UE 10 may combine the uplink scheduling environment according to the provisions between the base station 20 and the base station 20. Actually, selecting and determining to use different resources, so as to send a scheduling message that needs to be sent on different uplink resources, the processor 240 of the base station 20 determines the scheduling information sent by the UE 10 according to the information detected on different channel resources. . Since the reserved OCC code channel is also utilized, that is, the auxiliary resource transmits the SR message and the HARQ-ACK message, the delay in the uplink scheduling process can be shortened.

The auxiliary resource is different from the orthogonal sequence used by the HARQ-ACK resource and the other resources are the same. The other resources described herein include at least one of a time, a frequency, a cyclic shift sequence, and a cyclic shift value.

1102. The UE 10 sends an SR message and a HARQ-ACK message to the base station 20 on the HARQ-ACK resource or the corresponding auxiliary resource configured by the base station 20.

One of the existing uplink access schemes is the configuration period of the SR resources. Although the minimum period of the SR resource configuration is 1 ms, the minimum period configuration ensures that the UE 10 can always have SR resources, but from the perspective of the network. This is a big waste because the UE 10 does not need to send SR messages every time. The configuration of the SR resources to a minimum period means that many PUCCH format 1 resources are not used. Therefore, for a user equipment having such a low latency requirement, the base station may allow the UE to use the reserved OCC code channel resource to transmit the SR when configuring the HARQ-ACK resource.

The transmitter 112 of the UE 10 may transmit different scheduling information to the base station 20 on different uplink resources according to the following description rules, which may be a protocol between the UE 10 and the base station 20 and mutually obeyed.

Optionally, as another embodiment, when the SR message and the HARQ-ACK message are simultaneously sent, and the base station 20 configures the HARQ-ACK resource and its corresponding auxiliary resource for the UE 10, and the SR resource is not configured, the UE 10 follows the The following rules send an SR message to the base station 20 and HARQ-ACK message:

If the UE 10 transmits a HARQ-ACK message and a negative SR message to the base station 20, the UE 10 transmits a HARQ-ACK message and a negative SR message to the base station 20 on the HARQ-ACK resource;

If the UE 10 transmits a HARQ-ACK message and a determined SR message to the base station 20, the UE 10 transmits a HARQ-ACK message and a determined SR message to the base station 20 on the second attached resource.

The negative SR message sent by the UE 10 to the base station 20 is used to inform the base station 20 that the UE 10 has no data to send to the base station 20; and the determined SR message sent by the UE 10 to the base station 20 is used to inform the base station 20, The UE 10 subsequently has uplink data to be sent.

Therefore, when the base station 20 receives the HARQ-ACK message sent by the UE 10 on the HARQ-ACK resource, it may be determined that the UE 10 transmits the HARQ-ACK message and the negative SR message; when the base station 20 receives the UE on the attached resource 10 When the HARQ-ACK message is sent, it may be determined that the UE 10 sends a HARQ-ACK message and a negative SR message.

It should be understood that the UE 10 may also send the HARQ-ACK message and the negative SR message to the base station 20 on the affiliation resource; send the HARQ-ACK message to the base station 20 on the HARQ-ACK resource and The determined SR message.

When the base station 20 configures the SR resource for the UE 10, the UE 10 uses the SR resource to send an SR message to the base station 20.

When the base station 20 simultaneously configures the SR resource and the HARQ-ACK resource for the UE 10, if the UE 10 needs to send the HARQ-ACK message and the negative SR message, the UE 10 transmits the HARQ-ACK message to the base station 20 on the HARQ-ACK resource. And a negative SR message; if the UE 10 needs to send the HARQ-ACK message and the determined SR message, the UE 10 sends the HARQ-ACK message and the determined SR message to the base station 20 on the SR resource, and the resource utilization manner of the specific sending process. Reference can be made to Figure 9.

Therefore, the base station can distinguish the combination of different SR messages and HARQ-ACK messages by detecting information received on different physical resources and different information patterns, so as to subsequently configure the UE 10 with suitable resources for transmitting uplink data.

It should be understood that when the base station 20 configures the HARQ-ACK resource and its corresponding accessory resource for the UE 10, and the SR resource is not configured, the UE 10 may also send the HARQ-ACK message and the negative SR message to the base station 20 in the accessory resource. And transmitting a HARQ-ACK message and the determined SR message to the base station 20 on the HARQ-ACK resource.

Therefore, the uplink scheduling method in the embodiment of the present invention is attached to the HARQ-ACK resource. The resources are utilized to optimize the process of uplink scheduling and shorten the delay in the uplink scheduling process.

FIG. 12 is a flow diagram of a process of an uplink scheduling method according to another embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 12, the specific process of the uplink scheduling includes:

1201. The base station 20 configures the SR resource and the auxiliary resource corresponding to the SR resource for the UE 10.

Specifically, the processor 240 of the base station 20 configures the SR resource for transmitting the scheduling request SR message for the UE 10, and configures an auxiliary resource corresponding to the SR resource for the UE 10 to allow the UE 10 to send an SR message on the auxiliary resource. The subsidiary resource refers to an OCC redundant code channel corresponding to the SR resource. After the processor 240 of the base station 20 configures the legacy uplink resource for transmitting the SR message and the reserved accessory resource for the UE 10, the transmitter 112 of the UE 10 can combine the uplink according to the specification with the base station 20. The actual situation of the scheduling environment, selecting and determining to use different resources, so as to send a scheduling request message that needs to be sent on different uplink resources, the receiver 212 of the base station 20 receives the scheduling request message, and detects according to different channel resources. The information determines the scheduling information sent by the UE 10. Since the reserved OCC code channel is also utilized, that is, the auxiliary resource sends the SR message, the delay in the uplink scheduling process can be shortened.

The auxiliary resource is different from the orthogonal sequence used by the SR resource and the other resources are the same. The other resources described herein include at least one of a time, a frequency, a cyclic shift sequence, and a cyclic shift value.

1202. The UE 10 determines status information of uplink data to be sent.

Specifically, the status information may include a size of the uplink data or a delay requirement value of the uplink data. The processor 140 of the UE 10 may set a buffer threshold, and by comparing the size of the uplink data and the buffer threshold, determine whether the transmitter 112 of the UE 10 transmits an SR message to the base station 20 on the SR resource or its subsidiary resource; the processor 140 of the UE 10 A delay threshold may also be set to determine whether to send an SR message to the base station 20 on the SR resource or its subsidiary resource by comparing the delay requirement value with the size of the delay threshold.

1203. The UE 10 sends an SR message to the base station 20 on the SR resource configured by the base station 20 or its corresponding accessory resource.

Optionally, as another embodiment, the UE 10 determines a size relationship between the uplink data and the buffer threshold. If the uplink data to be sent is greater than the buffer threshold, the UE 10 selects the SR resource as the sending resource, and sends the SR resource to the base station 20 on the SR resource. If the uplink data to be sent is smaller than the buffer threshold, the UE 10 selects an auxiliary resource corresponding to the SR resource as a transmission resource, and sends an SR message to the base station 20 on the auxiliary resource.

Specifically, since the reserved OCC code channel is reused, the processor 240 corresponding to the base station 20 configures two resources for the UE 10, that is, the SR resource and the auxiliary resource corresponding to the SR resource, because the UE 10 is here. The cache state introduces a cache threshold that corresponds to a cache size. If the data to be transmitted of the UE 10 is greater than the buffer threshold, the transmitter 12 of the UE 10 transmits the SR message to the base station 20 by using the SR resource; if the data to be transmitted of the UE 10 is smaller than the buffer threshold, the transmitter 12 of the UE 10 uses the attached resource to The base station 20 transmits an SR message.

It should be understood that when the data to be transmitted of the UE 10 is greater than the buffer threshold, the UE 10 may also send an SR message to the base station 20 by using an auxiliary resource; when the data to be transmitted is smaller than the buffer threshold, the UE 10 may also use the SR resource to the base station 20. The SR message is sent, and the present invention does not limit the use of the affiliate resource.

Optionally, as another embodiment, the UE 10 determines the relationship between the delay requirement value of the uplink data and the delay threshold. If the delay requirement value of the uplink data to be sent is greater than the delay threshold, the UE 10 selects the SR resource as the Sending a resource, and sending an SR message to the base station 20 on the SR resource; if the delay request value of the uplink data to be sent is less than the delay threshold, the UE 10 selects the auxiliary resource corresponding to the SR resource as the transmission resource, and sends the uplink resource to the base station. 20 sends an SR message.

Specifically, the processor 240 of the base station 20 configures two resources for the UE 10, that is, an SR resource and an auxiliary resource corresponding to the SR resource. If the data of the UE 10 has a short delay and is to be sent, the data delay of the UE 10 may be introduced with a delay threshold, where the delay threshold corresponds to a delay, and the delay requirement of the data to be sent by the UE 10 is greater than the delay. When the delay threshold is used, the transmitter 12 of the UE 10 transmits the SR message to the base station 20 by using the SR resource; when the delay requirement of the data to be transmitted of the UE 10 is less than the delay threshold, the transmitter 12 of the UE 10 uses the auxiliary resource. The SR message is sent to the base station 20.

It should be understood that when the delay requirement value of the uplink data to be sent is greater than the delay threshold, the UE 10 may also send the SR message to the base station 20 on the affiliation resource; when the delay request value of the uplink data to be sent is less than the delay threshold The UE 10 may also send an SR message to the base station 20 on the SR resource, and the present invention does not limit the use of the auxiliary resource.

The cache threshold and the delay threshold may be specified by a high layer signaling configuration or protocol.

It should be further understood that the status information may further include other priority information, such as priority information of the uplink data to be sent, type information of the uplink data, and the like, and the UE 10 may, according to the different status information, on the SR resource or its subsidiary resources. The base station 20 transmits an SR message to cause the base station 20 to The requirement of the uplink data allocates suitable resources for transmitting uplink data to the UE 10. For example, the UE 10 may determine the priority of the uplink data; if the uplink data has a low priority, the UE 10 sends an SR message to the base station 20 on the SR resource; if the uplink data has a high priority, the UE 10 is in the subsidiary resource. The SR message is sent to the base station 20.

1204. The base station 20 sends a first permission Grant message to the UE 10.

After receiving the SR message sent by the UE 10, the base station 20 sends a first Grant message to the UE 10, so that the UE 10 can perform a subsequent uplink scheduling process according to the first Grant message. Another optimization direction of the uplink scheduling process is to carry part of the BSR information in the SR, so that the base station directly schedules the user equipment to send uplink data, simplifying the process, and the optimization is performed for users with low delay small data packets. It is very important.

Optionally, as another embodiment, if the SR message is sent on the SR resource, and the UE 10 receives the first permission Grant message sent by the base station 20, the UE 10 sends a buffer status report BSR message to the base station 20, so that the base station 20 After receiving the BSR message, the UE 10 allocates resources for transmitting uplink data, that is, performs 1205, 1206, and 1207; if the SR message is sent on the attached resource, the UE 10 receives the first Grant message sent by the base station 20 The uplink data can be directly sent to the base station 20, that is, directly executed 1207.

1205. The UE 10 sends a buffer status report BSR message to the base station 20.

The processor 240 of the base station 20 allocates resources for transmitting the uplink data to the UE 10 according to the BSR message.

1206. The base station 20 sends a second Grant message to the UE 10.

1207. The UE 10 sends uplink data to the base station 20 according to the second Grant message.

Specifically, after receiving the SR message sent by the transmitter 112 of the UE 10, the receiver 212 of the base station 20 returns a first Grant message to the UE 10. After the receiver 212 of the UE 10 receives the first Grant message, the UE 10 sends the message. The 211 may subsequently directly send a BSR message (corresponding to 1205) or uplink data (corresponding to 1207) to the base station 20. The processor 140 of the UE 10 determines, in 1202, the size relationship between the uplink data to be sent and the buffer threshold, and determines whether to send the SR message to the base station 20 on the SR resource or the auxiliary resource according to the size relationship, so that the base station 20 can be The different resources used by the SR message are sent to determine whether the transmitter 112 of the UE 10 subsequently needs to send a buffer status report BSR message to the base station 20.

For data smaller than the buffer threshold, the UE 10 can guarantee that it is transmitted at a time, and thus avoids the transmission of the BSR message. Therefore, if the transmitter 112 of the UE 10 is on the attached resource to the base station When the SR message is sent, the size of the uplink data is smaller than the buffer threshold. After receiving the SR message, the receiver 111 of the base station 20 sends a first Grant message to the UE 10, and the receiver 111 of the UE 10 receives the first Grant. After the message, the transmitter 112 of the UE 10 can directly send the uplink data to be sent to the base station 20. If the transmitter 112 of the UE 10 sends an SR message to the base station 20 on the SR resource, the size of the uplink data is greater than the buffer threshold. After the receiver 111 of the UE 10 receives the first Grant message, the transmitter 112 of the UE 10 The BSR message may be sent to the base station 20 according to the conventional procedure. After the receiver 212 of the base station 20 receives the BSR message, the transmitter 211 of the base station 20 sends a second Grant message to the UE 10 to allocate suitable uplink resources to the UE 10. The receiver 111 of the UE 10 receives the second Grant message and transmits the data to be transmitted on the corresponding physical resource according to the second Grant message.

That is, since the size of the resource carried by the first Grant message is fixed and limited, only when the size of the uplink data to be sent by the UE 10 is small, it can be ensured that the high uplink data is sent once by using the resource. Otherwise, it is required. The BSR message is sent to the base station 20 by using the resource to inform the base station 20 of the size of the uplink data to be sent, so that the base station subsequently sends a second Grant message to the UE 10 to allocate the resource for transmitting the uplink data to the UE 10.

It should be understood that when the data to be transmitted of the UE 10 is less than the buffer threshold, the UE 10 may also send an SR message to the base station 20 by using the SR resource, and then the uplink data is indicated when the UE 10 sends the SR message to the base station 20 on the SR resource. If the size of the packet is smaller than the buffer threshold, the uplink data may be directly sent to the base station 20; if the UE 10 may send the SR message to the base station 20 by using the accessory resource of the SR resource when the data to be transmitted of the UE 10 is greater than the buffer threshold, then When the UE 10 sends an SR message to the base station 20 on the secondary resource of the SR resource, it indicates that the size of the uplink data is greater than the buffer threshold, and the BSR message needs to be sent to the base station 20.

The foregoing description of the UE 10 determines whether to send a BSR message to the base station 20 according to the different resources used by the UE to send the SR message. Similarly, the base station 20 may also determine whether the UE 10 needs to send the buffer according to different resources used for receiving the SR message. Status reports BSR messages.

Optionally, as another embodiment, the base station 20 determines, according to different resources used by the SR message sent by the UE 10, the size relationship between the uplink data to be sent by the UE 10 and the buffer threshold, and sends the relationship to the UE 10 according to the size relationship. The first Grant message is used to indicate whether the UE 10 sends a BSR message or directly sends uplink data.

Specifically, when the receiver 212 of the base station 20 receives the SR message sent by the UE 10 on the SR resource, the processor 240 of the base station 20 may determine that the uplink data to be sent by the UE 10 is large. The threshold is buffered, so that the UE 10 sends a buffer status report BSR message by using the first Grant message, so that the UE 10 is subsequently allocated resources for transmitting uplink data according to the BSR message; when the receiver 212 of the base station 20 is on the attached resource. Upon receiving the SR message sent by the UE 10, the processor 240 of the base station 20 may determine that the size of the uplink data to be sent by the UE 10 is smaller than the buffer threshold, so that the UE 10 directly transmits the uplink data by using the first Grant message. The receiver 111 of the UE 10 can perform a BSR message transmission to the base station 20 or an uplink data directly according to the received indication of the first Grant message.

It should be understood that, when the to-be-sent data of the UE 10 is greater than the buffer threshold, if the UE uses the accessory resource to send the SR message to the base station, when the base station 20 receives the SR message sent by the UE 10 on the accessory resource, it sends the message to the UE 10. The Grant message indicates that the UE 10 sends a BSR message to the base station 20; instead, if the UE 10's data to be transmitted is smaller than the buffer threshold, the UE 10 uses the SR resource to send the SR message to the base station 20, then when the base station 20 is on the SR resource Upon receiving the SR message sent by the UE 10, the Grant message is sent to the UE 10 to indicate that the UE 10 can directly send the uplink data to the base station 20.

When the SR message is transmitted between the UE 10 and the base station 20, the correspondence between the state information of the data to be transmitted and the used SR resource or the auxiliary resource may be determined by the UE 10 and the base station 20. The present invention does not limit this. As long as the UE 10 and the base station 20 perform the uplink scheduling process according to the protocol.

It should also be understood that the base station 20 may also instruct the UE 10 to perform a subsequent transmission process according to the actual resource usage. In this case, the base station does not necessarily perform the uplink scheduling procedure desired by the UE, for example, when the uplink data is smaller than the buffer threshold, the base station 20 The UE 10 may also be instructed to allocate a resource for transmitting uplink data after transmitting the BSR message. The base station 20 instructs the UE 10 to send the BSR message or the uplink data, and may indicate whether the UE 10 sends the BSR message or directly sends the uplink data by adding the indication information to the Grant message.

As can be seen from the description in the background art, another way to reduce the end-to-end delay is to reduce the length of each TTI. Therefore, if the UE 10 supports the short TTI transmission, when the UE 10 has a data packet with a high delay requirement to be transmitted, the base station 20 may directly request the short TTI uplink resource to send the SR message to reduce the data end-to-end. Delay.

Optionally, as another embodiment, if the SR message is sent on the SR resource, after receiving the first Grant message, the UE 10 sends the uplink data to the base station on the first TTI resource configured by the base station 20; The message is sent on the attached resource, and the UE 10 is based on the first Grant. And transmitting uplink data to the base station 20 on the second TTI resource, where the length of the second TTI resource is smaller than the length of the first TTI resource.

Specifically, if the UE 10 supports the short TTI transmission, when the transmitter 112 of the UE 10 sends an SR message to the base station 20 on the secondary resource of the SR resource, the processor 240 of the base station 20 can serve the UE 10 in the following two manners. Configure uplink resources:

(1) The processor 240 of the base station 20 may configure the uplink resource (ie, the first TTI resource) of the traditional TTI in the prior art for the UE 10, or configure the uplink resource (ie, the second TTI resource) of the short TTI for the UE 10. . The transmitter 211 of the base station 20 informs the UE 10 by sending a first Grant message to the UE 10. At this time, after receiving the first Grant message sent by the transmitter 211 of the base station 20, the receiver 111 of the UE 10 needs to parse the first Grant message. The specific information is used to determine whether the uplink data is sent to the base station 20 by using the first TTI uplink resource or the second TTI uplink resource.

(2) The processor 240 of the base station 20 may also configure only the short TTI uplink resource (ie, the second TTI resource) for the UE 10, and then the transmitter 112 of the base station 20 sends the first Grant message to the UE 10 to notify the UE 10, at this time. The receiver 212 of the UE 10 directly transmits the uplink data to the base station 20 by using the second TTI resource after receiving the first Grant message sent by the transmitter 211 of the base station 20.

If the UE 10 sends an SR message to the base station 20 on the SR resource, which is equivalent to the request information including the traditional TTI, the base station 20 can directly configure the first TTI resource for the UE 10 and send the first Grant message to the UE 10, and the UE 10 After receiving the first Grant message, the uplink data is directly sent on the first TTI resource.

It should be understood that when the delay requirement value of the uplink data to be transmitted by the UE 10 is greater than the delay threshold, if the UE 10 sends the SR message to the base station 20 by using the accessory resource, the UE 10 sends the SR message to the base station 20 on the attached resource. When the delay request value of the uplink data is greater than the delay threshold, the UE 10 sends an SR message to the base station 20 on the first TTI resource. Conversely, if the delay requirement value of the uplink data to be sent is less than the delay threshold, the UE 10: The SR message is sent to the base station 20 by using the SR resource, and then the UE 10 sends an SR message to the base station 20 on the second TTI resource.

The foregoing description of the UE 10 determines whether to send uplink data to the base station 20 on the first TTI resource or the second TTI resource according to the different resources used by the UE to send the SR message. Similarly, the base station 20 may also use different resources according to the received SR message. And determining whether the UE 10 transmits the uplink data to the base station 20 on the first TTI resource or the second TTI resource.

Optionally, as another embodiment, the base station 20 determines, according to different resources used by the SR message sent by the UE 10, the uplink data delay request value and the delay threshold of the UE 10 to be sent. A size relationship, and sending a first Grant message to the UE 10 according to the size relationship.

Specifically, when the receiver 212 of the base station 20 receives the SR message sent by the transmitter 112 of the UE 10 on the SR resource, the processor 240 of the base station 20 may determine that the delay request value of the uplink data to be sent by the UE 10 is greater than The threshold is extended to configure the first TTI resource for the UE 10, and the first Grant message is used to indicate that the UE 10 sends uplink data on the first TTI resource; when the processor 240 of the base station 20 receives the auxiliary resource of the SR resource, When the SR message is sent by the transmitter 112 of the UE 10, the processor 240 of the base station 20 may determine that the delay request value of the uplink data to be sent by the UE 10 is less than a delay threshold, thereby configuring the UE 10 with the second TTI resource, and A Grant message instructs the UE 10 to send uplink data on the second TTI resource. The UE 10 may perform uplink data transmission to the base station 20 on the first TTI resource or the second TTI resource according to the received indication of the first Grant message.

It should be understood that when the delay requirement value of the uplink data to be transmitted by the UE 10 is greater than the delay threshold, if the UE 10 sends the SR message to the base station 20 by using the accessory resource of the SR resource, then the base station 20 receives the SR message on the accessory resource. When the SR message is sent by the UE 10, the base station 20 may also send a Grant message to the UE 10 to instruct the UE 10 to send uplink data to the base station 20 on the first TTI resource. Conversely, if the delay requirement value of the uplink data to be sent is less than When the threshold is exceeded, the base station 20 receives the SR message sent by the UE 10 on the SR resource, and then the base station 20 may send a Grant message to the UE 10 to instruct the UE 10 to send the uplink data to the base station 20 on the second TTI resource.

It should also be understood that the base station 20 may also determine the priority level of the uplink data or the type of the uplink data according to different resources of the received SR message, thereby allocating suitable resources for transmitting the uplink data to the UE 10. For example, if the SR message is received on the SR resource, the base station 20 may determine that the uplink data to be transmitted by the UE 10 has a low priority; if the SR message is received on the attached resource, the base station 20 may determine that the UE 10 is to be transmitted. The upstream data has a high priority.

Optionally, as another embodiment, the auxiliary resource or the orthogonal sequence of the auxiliary resource is applied to a time unit selected by the UE 10 in a plurality of time units.

Optionally, as another embodiment, the time unit is a subframe, and when the UE 10 is used to select the user number m of the time unit to satisfy m=mod(n, N), the UE 10 is in the current sub-number n. The auxiliary resource or the orthogonal sequence of the auxiliary resource is used on the frame, where n=5x+y, x represents the system frame number SFN, y represents the subframe number, N is the number of the plurality of time units, and m is 0~ The natural number between N-1.

Specifically, each PUCCH physical resource is different from the PRB location and the reference signal sequence. The ring shift and the OCC code are jointly determined. The user equipments with the same first two parameters may have three, for example, UE 10, UE 20, and UE 30, respectively. When the number of OFDM symbols occupied by the information part in each time slot is 4, there is an OCC code that is redundant, and any one of the UE 10, the UE 20, and the UE 30 can use the OCC code channel to transmit information. Alternatively, the UE 10, the UE 20, and the UE 30 transmit the information using the OCC code channel in turn.

Therefore, the current subframe number may be numbered, for example, as n, where n=SFN*5+subframe number, and then each user has a specific number, taking UE 10 as an example, assuming that the number is m, if If m=mod(n, N) is satisfied, it indicates that the UE 10 can occupy the OCC code channel of the subframe redundancy.

The value of the N may be specified by the protocol or sent by the base station, and the m may be sent by the base station 20 or generated by the user equipment 10 according to its own identity ("Identity" ("ID").

It should be understood that other rules may also be set to determine which of the UE 10, the UE 20, and the UE 30 to use the redundant OCC code channel for information transfer, such as allowing a fixed user equipment to use the OCC code for a fixed length of time. These are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.

Optionally, if the base station 20 configures multiple SR resources for the UE 10, the method may further include:

The UE 10 determines that the kth SR resource in each group is the SR resource, and corresponds to an orthogonal sequence of the auxiliary resource or the auxiliary resource, where K is a natural number greater than 1, and k is between 1 and K-1. Natural number.

That is, if the base station 20 configures the accessory resource to the UE 10, the UE 10 may use the accessory resource corresponding to the SR resource configured by the base station for the UE 10 according to the scheduling manner, each time the SR message is sent. Among the SR resources configured by the base station, part of the SR resources (k SR resources in each group) are selected, and the SR message is allowed to be sent using its corresponding subsidiary resource. For example, the SR resources to which the UE 10 is periodically allocated are numbered, grouped into every three SR resources, and the first SR is taken from each group and the SR resources are allowed to use the redundant OCC code channel. Uplink scheduling in the foregoing manner. Since SR resources occur periodically, this rule is more suitable for SR resources.

The M may be determined by the protocol or sent by the base station 20, and the m may be sent by the base station 20 or generated by the user equipment 10 according to its own ID by a predetermined rule.

It should be understood that both the base station 20 and the UE 10 may perform the step of determining the first SR resource, that is, grouping the multiple SR resources according to each K SR resources, and determining that the kth SR resource in each group is the first An SR resource.

Therefore, the uplink scheduling method in the embodiment of the present invention optimizes the uplink scheduling process of the small data packet by using the secondary resource of the SR resource to perform the SR message transmission, and shortens the delay of the entire uplink scheduling process.

It should be understood that other rules may be set to determine which of the SR resources allocated by the UE 10 use the OCC code channel to send the SR message. If the HARQ-ACK resource is also detected, the foregoing may also be combined. The method in the embodiment of the invention performs the combined transmission of the HARQ-ACK and the SR message, which should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

It should be understood that the size of the sequence numbers of the above processes does not imply a sequence of executions, and the order of execution of the processes should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not be construed as limiting the implementation of the embodiments of the present invention.
