Description

接入控制方法及装置、系统 技术领域
本发明实施例涉及通信领域,具体而言,涉及一种接入控制方法及装置、系统。
背景技术
相关技术的长期演进(Long-Term Evolution,简称为LTE)系统为了支持机器类型通讯终端(例如传感器,智能家居,智能电网监控等),引入了窄带空中接口技术eMTC(enhance machine type communication,增强机器类型通讯)和NBIoT(NarrowBand Internet of Things,窄带物联网),其中eMTC系统带宽采用1.4MHz,NBIOT系统带宽采用180kHz,这2种系统专门用于承载以小流量、不频繁、时延容忍度很高的业务数据为主的机器类型通讯,避免海量的机器类型终端的小数据影响宽带LTE系统的频谱效率,同时增加单位带宽承载的用户容量。
LTE基站可以以共站的模式同时部署多个窄带eMTC或者NBIOT频点,以inband(系统带宽内)的模式为eMTC或NBIOT系统划分频谱资源。
申请人发现,随着机器类型业务的增多,实时语音和视频的业务也开始在MTC终端出现,因此eMTC和NBIOT系统也可以支持实时类业务,而这类业务的特点是数据包到达频繁、时延敏感、数据流量大。窄带eMTC或者NBIOT由于先天资源限制,而且引入了覆盖增强技术,其对于大流量数据的负荷能力并不能和LTE系统相比,因此如果支持实时类业务的终端的数量增大,很容易导致窄带系统的过载。
针对相关技术中存在的上述问题,目前尚未发现有效的解决方案。

实施例3
本实施例是根据本发明的可选实施例,用于结合不同的场景对本申请进行详细说明,本实施例包括多个具体实施例:
具体实施例1:
以LTE eMTC系统为例,本实施例描述eMTC接入网针对按业务速率分类eMTC用户设备在覆盖增强场景下的粗粒度的接入控制;
图4是本发明具体本实施例1的方案流程图,详细说明见下:
实施例前置条件如下:
eMTC接入网与LTE接入网共基站部署,LTE接入网系统带宽为10MHz,eMTC接入网采用inband(频段内)方式部署在LTE接入网系统带宽内。假设eMTC接入网目前已经高负荷,空闲的空口资源较少,虽然还能接纳少量高速率用户,但无法负担高速率用户使用较大覆盖增强级别的模式,因此eMTC接入网决定对高速率且覆盖增强级别高的用户进行限制接入。
步骤401.eNB(基站)在eMTC系统消息(例如在SIB2或者SIB14)中广播如下接入控制信息:
高速率UE允许接入的覆盖增强模式上限 覆盖增强模式A
其中,覆盖增强模式A是指覆盖增强级别低的模式,与之对应的,覆盖增强模式B,其对应高覆盖增强级别。
例如:在现有eMTC系统中,PDSCH(物理下行共享信道)和PUSCH(物理上行共享信道)的覆盖增强模式A对应了覆盖重复因子[1,2,4,8]等这几个覆盖增强级别(最大覆盖重复因子可以由基站配置),覆盖增强模式B对应了覆盖重复因子[4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512]等这几个覆盖增强级别(最大覆盖重复因子可以由基站配置);
PRACH(物理随机接入信道)的覆盖增强模式A对应了覆盖增强级别0和1;覆盖增强模式B对应了覆盖增强级别2和3,覆盖增强级别0~3分别对应的覆盖重复因子由基站在[1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128]中选择配置;
M-PDCCH和PUCCH也分别有覆盖增强模式A和覆盖增强模式B下的不同覆盖增强级别的配置。
步骤402.eMTC UE在发起随机接入之前,提前读取接入控制相关的系统消息,获取基于覆盖增强级别的接入控制信息;
步骤403.eMTC UE根据自己对小区参考信号的测量结果,确定自己发起判断自己当的覆盖增强级别,若根据测量结果确定UE无需使能覆盖增强,或者只需要启用覆盖模式A来发起随机接入,那么根据获取的覆盖增强级别的接入控制信息可以判断:UE可以在当前小区发起随机接入; 若根据测量结果确定UE需要启用覆盖模式B来发起随机接入,那么根据获取的覆盖增强级别的接入控制信息可以判断:UE不能在当前小区发起随机接入。
具体实施例2:
以LTE eMTC系统为例,本实施例描述eMTC接入网针对按业务速率分类的eMTC用户设备在覆盖增强场景下的细粒度的接入控制;
参考具体实施例1的场景,
实施例前置条件如下:
eMTC接入网与LTE接入网共基站部署,LTE接入网系统带宽为10MHz,eMTC接入网采用inband(频段内)方式部署在LTE接入网系统带宽内。假设eMTC接入网目前已经高负荷,空闲的空口资源较少,虽然还能接纳少量高速率用户,但无法负担高速率用户使用较大覆盖增强级别的模式,因此eMTC接入网决定对某些高速率业务类型且覆盖增强级别高的用户进行限制接入,这种限制方式可以是不同粒度的。
图5是本发明具体本实施例2的方案流程图,流程如下:
步骤501.eNB(基站)检测到eMTC小区负荷较高,且LTE系统的负荷也较高,无法给eMTC调度更多空闲资源使用,eNB决定要限制eMTC的高速率业务用户使用大覆盖增强级别,以减少空口资源的压力。eNB在eMTC系统消息(例如在SIB2或者SIB14)中广播针对使用覆盖增强的终端的接入控制信息,控制信息的内容包含2部分:受限的用户对象,以及所述受限对象对应的受限的覆盖增强级别;
受限用户对象包括:
任意类型的UE(即不限UE类型或者业务类型)
按照业务类型划分,例如:按照业务的实时性划分为:实时业务(低时延业务或超低时延业务),普通业务,时延不敏感业务(或时延容忍业务);又例如按照业务要求的速率的高低划分为:高速率业务、普通速率 业务、低速率业务;上述划分也可以分成更细的级别粒度,例如可以按时延需求或速率的大小数值划分成更多的级别;
按照特定类型业务做针对性的划分,包括:语音业务、视频流业务、游戏业务、智能穿戴、健康监护等;
-按照UE能力来划分,包括:是否支持高于预设速率的速率、是否支持大于预设带宽的带宽、是否支持多窄带传输、是否支持覆盖增强
所述受限对象对应的受限的覆盖增强级别:
覆盖增强级别可以按照不同粒度划分,例如:
划分为:无覆盖增强、使用覆盖增强;或者
划分为:无覆盖增强、覆盖增强模式A、覆盖增强模式B;或者
划分为:无覆盖增强、覆盖增强级别0、覆盖增强级别1、覆盖增强级别2、覆盖增强级别3;(在eMTC系统中,随机接入信道采用的覆盖增强级别0/1属于覆盖增强模式A;覆盖增强级别2/3属于覆盖增强模式B),或者
划分为:无覆盖增强、覆盖增强重复因子{1,2,4,8,15,32,64,128...}
控制信息的限制形式包括:允许用户设备接入的覆盖增强级别或覆盖增强模式的上限、或者不允许用户设备接入的覆盖增强级别或覆盖增强模式的下限、或者允许/不允许用户设备接入的覆盖增强级别或覆盖增强模式的范围;
例如:控制信息定义为:
UE允许接入的覆盖增强级别上限 无覆盖增强
这个控制信息的含义是:若任何类型的UE需使用覆盖增强技术来接入网络,则不允许其接入;
又例如:控制信息定义为:
Figure PCTCN2017096181-appb-000001
这个控制信息的含义是:发起语音业务的UE允许其使用覆盖增强模式A或者无覆盖增强的方式接入;发起视频流业务的UE允许其使用无覆盖增强的方式接入;
又例如:控制信息定义为:
Figure PCTCN2017096181-appb-000002
这个控制信息的含义是:发起高速率业务的UE允许其使用无覆盖增强的方式接入;发起普通速率业务的UE允许其使用[无覆盖增强,覆盖增强级别0,覆盖增强级别1]的方式接入;发起低速率业务的UE允许其使用[无覆盖增强,覆盖增强级别0,覆盖增强级别1,覆盖增强级别2,覆盖增强级别3]的方式接入。
可选的,为了实现更有灵活性的接入控制,对受控的目标用户设备的限制可以采用比例的形式,即允许预设比例的满足接入控制条件的目标用户设备进行随机接入,或者不允许预设比例的满足接入控制条件的目标用户设备进行随机接入;
所述比例的设置形式包括:设置小于1的比例因子;或者对不同接入级别(Access Class,简称AC)分别设置1bit的允许/不允许接入的指示;
例如:
控制信息定义为:
Figure PCTCN2017096181-appb-000003
符合前两列的条件(高速率,使用重复因子[1]),终端来确定自身是否能发起随机接入,如果小于0.1,则被允许接入,反之,则不允许。
这个控制信息的含义是:发起高速率业务的UE只能使用重复因子[1]的方式接入,且只有10%能发起随机接入;发起普通速率业务的UE只能使用重复因子[2~8],且只有30%能发起随机接入;发起低速率业务的UE只能使用重复因子[16~32],且只有50%能发起随机接入。
又例如:
控制信息定义为:
Figure PCTCN2017096181-appb-000004
这个控制信息的含义是:发起高速率业务的UE只能使用重复因子[1]的方式接入,且只有属于AC0的UE能发起随机接入;发起普通速率业务的UE只能使用重复因子[2~8],且只有属于AC0~2的UE能发起随机接入;发起低速率业务的UE只能使用重复因子[16~32],且只有属于AC0~4的UE能发起随机接入。控制信息的最后一列为10bit的字段,用于标识接入等级AC0~9的UE中,哪个AC的UE可以接入。
步骤502.eMTC UE在发起随机接入之前,提前读取接入控制相关的系统消息,根据自己所属的UE类型或者业务类型来获取对应的基于覆盖增强级别的接入控制信息;
步骤503.eMTC UE根据自己对小区参考信号的测量结果,确定自己的覆盖增强级别,并根据获取的基于覆盖增强级别的接入控制信息判断自己能否发起随机接入;
步骤504(可选).eMTC UE如果从系统消息中还获取了EAB(扩展接入控制)控制信息,EAB属于现有的控制机制的一种,则UE还需要执行EAB的接入控制流程,也即是说,步骤201~203所述的本发明方案和现有接入控制技术之间是并列的关系,当基站同时广播了本发明方案和现有接入控制技术的接入控制信息,则UE需要同时执行二者,可以先执行步骤201~203所述的本发明方案,也可以先执行现有接入控制技术。
具体实施例3:
以LTE eMTC系统为例,本实施例描述eMTC接入网针对按业务的实时性分类的eMTC用户设备在覆盖增强场景下的细粒度的接入控制;
NBIOT系统使用的系统带宽为180kHz,比eMTC系统的1.4Mhz还要小,因此若终端使用覆盖增强技术,其占用的NBIOT系统空口资源比率更加多。
假设NBIOT接入网与LTE接入网共基站部署,LTE接入网系统带宽为10MHz,NBIOT接入网采用inband(频段内)方式部署在LTE接入网系统带宽内。假设NBIOT接入网目前已经高负荷,空闲的空口资源较少,虽然还能接纳少量高速率用户,但无法负担高速率用户使用较大覆盖增强级别的模式,因此NBIOT接入网决定对某些高速率业务类型且覆盖增强级别高的用户进行限制接入,这种限制方式可以是不同粒度的。
其采用的方法与eMTC系统的方法一致,实施例1和实施例2的方案可以沿用在NBIOT系统中。基于覆盖增强级别的接入控制信息可以在NBIOT系统的系统消息(例如在SIB2或者SIB14)发送给NBIOT终端。
其具体流程可以参考具体实施例1和具体实施例2。
在以上所有实施例中,接入网网元的类型除了eNB之外,也包括small cell,家庭基站,以及兼容EPC架构的其他接入网网元类型。
