具体实施方式
为使本公开的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚，下面将结合附图对本公开实施方式作进一步地详细描述。
图1是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种建立回程链路的方法的流程图。如图1所示，建立回程链路的方法应用于基站，包括以下步骤：
在步骤101中，广播系统信息，使得接收到系统信息的指定终端返回回程链路建立信令，指定终端是指已与核心网建立第一通信链路的终端。
在步骤102中，接收指定终端返回的回程链路建立信令，回程链路信令用于指示指定终端为基站建立回程链路。
在步骤103中，向指定终端发送确认消息，使得指定终端接收到确认消息后，与基站建立第二通信链路，则第二通信链路与第一通信链路构成回程链路。
相关技术中，小基站的回程链路需要运营商预先部署，而且部署的回程链路都是固定的，可扩展性差。本公开实施例中，基站可以通过任一个已与核心网建立第一通信链路的指定终端，建立一条回程链路，而摆脱了相关技术中固定回程链路的限制。
本实施例提供的方法，通过提供了一种新的建立回程链路的方式，在已与核心网建立第一通信链路的指定终端与基站之间建立第二通信链路，第一通信链路和第二通信链路构成回程链路，则基站可以通过该回程链路接入核心网。建立回程链路的方式更加灵活便捷，采用该方式可以建立多条回程链路，可扩展性强。
在一种可能实现方式中，基站与位于基站的覆盖范围内的任一终端之间的通信链路与回程链路配置的时间资源不同；或者，
基站与位于基站的覆盖范围内的任一终端之间的通信链路与回程链路配置的频率资源不同；或者，
基站与位于基站的覆盖范围内的任一终端之间的通信链路与回程链路对 应的波束所占的空间不重叠。
在一种可能实现方式中，方法还包括：
基站已建立多条回程链路的情况下，接收位于基站的覆盖范围内的至少一个终端发送的数据包；
获取接收到的至少一个数据包的业务质量级别标识QCI，QCI用于指示对应的数据包的通信优先级；
基于多条回程链路当前剩余的带宽及至少一个数据包的QCI，将至少一个数据包分配给多条回程链路。
在一种可能实现方式中，方法还包括：
在基站未建立回程链路的情况下，如果接收到任一终端的接入请求，则拒绝接入请求。
上述所有可选技术方案，可以采用任意结合形成本公开的可选实施例，在此不再一一赘述。
图2是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种建立回程链路的方法的流程图。如图2所示，建立回程链路的方法应用于指定终端，指定终端是指已与核心网建立第一通信链路的终端，该方法包括以下步骤：
在步骤201中，接收基站广播的系统信息。
在步骤202中，向基站发送回程链路信令，回程链路信令用于指示为基站建立回程链路。
在步骤203中，当接收到基站返回的确认消息时，与基站建立第二通信链路，则第二通信链路与第一通信链路构成回程链路。
本实施例提供的方法，通过提供了一种新的建立回程链路的方式，在已与核心网建立第一通信链路的指定终端与基站之间建立第二通信链路，第一通信链路和第二通信链路构成回程链路，则基站可以通过该回程链路接入核心网。建立回程链路的方式更加灵活便捷，采用该方式可以建立多条回程链路，可扩 展性强。
图3是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种建立回程链路的方法的流程图，如图3所示，建立回程链路的方法用于基站与指定终端的交互过程，包括以下步骤：
在步骤301中，基站广播系统信息。
回程链路是指基站与核心网之间的通信链路，核心网可以作为基站与外部网络之间的接口，只有当基站接入核心网后，才能正常地为其覆盖范围内的终端提供通信服务。例如，基站将核心网的数据传输至覆盖范围内的终端，或者将覆盖范围内的终端的数据传输至核心网，通过核心网传输至外部网络。
本公开实施例提供了一种为基站建立回程链路的方式，可以为任一基站建立回程链路。例如，该基站可以是小基站或者其他类型的基站等。如果小基站已有的回程链路带宽不能满足带宽需求，或者，如果小基站还未部署回程链路，均可以采用本公开实施例的方法建立回程链路。当然，该基站可以采用本公开实施例的方法建立多条回程链路，从而形成聚合的回程链路，使得基站更高效地进行通信。
该基站初始启动后，可以广播系统信息，供指定终端进行搜索和接入。该系统信息为该基站预先配置的信息，可以包括MIB(Master Information Block，主系统模块)和SIB(System Information Block，系统信息块)等基本的基站配置信息等，本公开实施例对该系统信息不做限定。
与相关技术中在接入核心网之后广播系统信息不同，本公开实施例在初始启动后即开始广播系统信息，以便通过该系统信息建立回程链路。
在步骤302中，指定终端接收基站广播的系统信息，指定终端是指已与核心网建立第一通信链路的终端。
在步骤303中，指定终端向基站发送回程链路信令，回程链路建立信令用于指示为该基站建立回程链路。
本公开实施例对指定终端不做具体限定，例如，指定终端可以为已接入核心网的移动电话或者平板电脑等。本公开实施例对该指定终端的位置也不做限定，只需保证该指定终端能够接收到该基站广播的系统信息即可。
回程链路建立信令可以为RRC(Radio Resource Control，无线资源控制)信令，且该信令的信息单元中携带了建立回程链路的标识，基站在接收到指定终端所发送的信令时，可以基于该信令携带的建立回程链路的标识，确定该信令为回程链路建立信令。本公开实施例对信息单元不做限定。例如，以下信令的信息单元中可以包含建立回程链路的标识“provideBackhaul”。
EstablishmentCause::＝ENUMERATED{
emergency,highPriorityAccess,mt-Access,mo-Signalling,mo-Data,
delayTolerantAccess-v1020,provideBackhaul,spare1}
在该基站广播系统信息的过程中，当指定终端接收到基站所广播的系统信息时，可以生成回程链路建立信令，并且向基站发送该回程链路建立信令，以指示该指定终端已经接入核心网，可以为该基站建立回程链路。
由于该指定终端已经与核心网建立第一通信链路，可以通过该第一通信链路与核心网进行通信。因此，只要在该基站与该指定终端之间建立通信链路，该基站即可通过该指定终端连接至核心网。而为了在该基站与该指定终端之间建立通信链路，该指定终端接收到该基站广播的系统信息时，向基站发送回程链路信令。
本公开实施例对第一通信链路的建立方式不做限定。例如，指定终端通过WLAN(Wireless Local Area Networks，无线局域网)接入核心网，从而建立第一通信链路。
需要说明的是，基站广播系统信息时，可以有多个指定终端接收到该系统信息，从而向该基站发送该回程链路信令，此时该基站可以接收到多个回程链路信令，并根据接收到的回程链路信令建立回程链路。其中，对于不同的指定终端来说，建立回程链路的过程类似，且相互之间并不影响。
在步骤304中，基站接收指定终端返回的回程链路建立信令。
在步骤305中，基站向指定终端发送确认消息。
本公开实施例中，当基站接收到回程链路建立信令时，根据该回程链路建立信令可以确定该指定终端能够为该基站建立回程链路，此时该基站可以向指定终端发送确认消息，表示该基站同意建立回程链路。
在本公开实施例的一种可能实现方式中，基站接收到该回程链路建立信令时，可以判断自身是否需要建立回程链路，如果该基站需要建立回程链路，则向指定终端发送确认消息；如果该基站无需建立回程链路，则可以向指定终端发送拒绝消息。
其中，该基站需要建立回程链路的情况至少包括：当前没有可用的回程链路，或者，当前带宽需求较高，已有的回程链路带宽不能满足当前的带宽需求；该基站无需建立回程链路的情况至少包括：当前有可用的回程链路，或者，已有的回程链路带宽能够满足当前的带宽需求。
需要说明的是，如果基站接收到多个指定终端的回程链路信令，则该基站可以通过该多个指定终端中某些指定终端建立回程链路，而针对于其他的指定终端可以不再建立回程链路。
一种可能实现方式中，基站可以根据当前的带宽需求，以及该多个指定终端中每个指定终端提供的带宽，从该多个指定终端中选取要建立回程链路的指定终端，以使选取的指定终端提供的带宽之和可以满足基站当前的带宽需求，后续该基站可以向选取的指定终端发送确认消息，而向剩余的指定终端发送拒绝消息。
例如，基站在当前的通信周期内接收到5个指定终端发送的回程链路信令，则在下一通信周期可以向其中3个指定终端发送确认消息，以便通过这3个指定终端建立回程链路，而向另外2个指定终端发送拒绝消息，既能建立足够的回程链路，满足当前的带宽需求，也不会浪费回程链路资源。
在步骤306中，当指定终端接收到基站返回的确认消息时，与基站建立第 二通信链路，则第二通信链路与第一通信链路构成回程链路。
基于上述步骤305，如果指定终端接收到基站的确认消息，则此时的基站与指定终端已经相互确认身份，并且均同意通过指定终端为基站建立回程链路。因此，在该步骤中，指定终端与基站建立第二通信链路，此时，基站通过该第一通信链路和该第二通信链路可以连接至核心网，也即是为该基站建立了一条回程链路。
相关技术中都是由运营商为基站部署回程链路，由基站通过该回程链路实现定点传输。而本公开实施例中，对于一个基站来说，该基站可以通过任一指定终端来建立回程链路，该指定终端的类型、位置均不受限制，大大提高了灵活性。而且，该基站可以建立一条或者多条回程链路，充分满足了当前的通信需求，可扩展性强。
当回程链路建立完成时，该基站即可通过该回程链路与核心网进行通信，从而为其覆盖范围内的终端提供通信服务。
例如，图4A是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种通信系统的示意图。如图4A所示，在该通信系统中，终端A可以是基站覆盖范围内的任一终端。该通信系统的上行通信为：终端A将数据发送至基站，基站将数据发送至指定终端B，由指定终端B将数据上传至核心网；该通信系统的下行通信为：指定终端从核心网获取数据，并将数据发送至基站，由基站将数据发送至终端A。
实际应用中，该基站可以建立一条或者多条回程链路。
基站建立一条回程链路的情况下，在上行通信时，覆盖范围内的终端将数据包发送至基站，基站通过回程链路将数据包上传至核心网，具体是先通过该第二通信链路将数据包发送至指定终端，由指定终端将数据包上传至核心网。在下行通信时，基站通过回程链路从核心网获取数据包，再将数据包发送至覆盖范围内的终端。
基站建立多条回程链路的情况下，在下行通信时，基站接收多条回程链路上的数据包，并将接收到的数据包发送至覆盖范围内的终端。
在上行通信时，基站接收位于基站的覆盖范围内的至少一个终端发送的数据包，获取接收到的至少一个数据包的QCI，基于多条回程链路当前剩余的带宽及至少一个数据包的QCI，将至少一个数据包分配给多条回程链路。
其中，QCI用于指示对应的数据包的通信优先级，可根据该数据包的业务类型、丢包率和预计延时得到。例如，QCI划分为9级，接收的两个数据包中一个数据包的QCI为1级，另一个数据包的QCI为7级，表明前者的通信优先级较高，则优先传输前者。
在一种可能实现方式中，该基站接收到数据包时，可以将该数据包分配给当前剩余带宽较大的回程链路。
例如，该基站有两条回程链路L1和L2，L1当前剩余带宽为5M，d当前剩余带宽为10M，则可以将数据包通过L2发送。
通过这种分配方式，不仅能优先发送数据包，而且该数据包占用回程链路的带宽之后，该回程链路剩余带宽变小，可以使不同回程链路的剩余带宽不会相差太大，从而保证了回程链路负载均衡，缓解回程链路的带宽紧张。
在另一种可能实现方式中，该基站接收到多个数据包时，将通信优先级较高的数据包分配给当前剩余的带宽较大的回程链路，将通信优先级较低的数据包分配给当前剩余的带宽较小的回程链路，以保证通信优先级较高的数据包可以优先传输。
例如，基站具有两条回程链路L1和L2，且接收到了两个数据包p和y，p的QCI为2级，y的QCI为5级，表示p的通信优先级高于y的通信优先级，L1的当前剩余带宽为5M，L2的当前剩余带宽为1M，则优先将p分配至L1，将y分配至L2。
在另一种可能实现方式中，该基站接收到其覆盖范围内的多个终端的数据包时，可以基于至少一个回程链路的当前剩余带宽，将接收到的多个数据包重新组合成一个数据包，并分配给任一回程链路。
例如，基站具有两条回程链路L1和L2，当基站接收到2个数据包时，L1 的当前剩余带宽为1M，L2的当前剩余带宽为10M，则基站可以将两个数据包重新组合成1个数据包，并分配给L2，从而提高空闲的回程链路的利用率。
本公开实施例对上述重新组包的方式不做限定。例如，图4B是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种重新组包过程的示意图。参见图4B，终端向基站发送2个数据包，2个数据包按照PHY(Physical Layer，物理层协议)、MAC(Medium/Media Access Control，媒介访问控制层协议)、RLC(Radio Link Control，无线链路层控制协议)、PDCP(Packet Data Convergence Protocol，分组数据汇聚协议)的顺序依次进行组包。则基站将接收到的2个数据包分别按照PDCP、RLC、MAC及PHY的顺序层层拆包，以获取2个数据包每一层对应的数据，并将2个数据包同一层对应的数据进行组合，进而以PHY、MAC、RLC及PDCP的顺序重新组成一个新的数据包，则新的数据包中每一层的数据可表示为PDCP_New、RLC_New、MAC_New及PHY_New。
在另一种可能实现方式中，下行通信时，如果基站接收到来自于不同回程链路的多个数据包，且该多个数据包对应的终端为同一个终端，也可以将这些数据包重新组包，并发送给该多个数据包对应的终端。该组包方式与上述组包方式类似，在此不再赘述。
需要说明的是，为了避免发生通信无效的情况，在基站未建立回程链路的情况下，如果接收到任一终端的接入请求，则拒绝接入请求。这是因为基站所广播的系统信息可能被其覆盖范围内的任一终端接收到，并且这些终端在接收到系统信息后，可能向该基站发送接入请求。此时，如果该基站还没有可用的回程链路，则它们接入该基站后，也不能通过基站将数据传输至核心网，或者通过基站从核心网获取数据。因此，为了避免资源的浪费，该基站可以拒绝该接入请求，从而避免该终端接入基站。
基于本实施例所建立的回程链路，当基站与覆盖范围内的任一终端进行通信时，也可以通过回程链路与核心网进行通信，为了避免基站与位于基站的覆盖范围内的任一终端之间的通信链路与所建立的回程链路相互干扰，则可以为 二者分配不同的传输资源。本公开实施例对此不做限定。例如，该传输资源可以是时间资源、频率资源或者波束等。
1、基站与位于基站的覆盖范围内的任一终端之间的通信链路与回程链路配置的时间资源不同。
例如，两个链路分别分配基站上的不同子帧，对于子帧1到子帧10，基站与位于基站的覆盖范围内的任一终端之间的通信链路分配奇数标号的子帧，回程链路分配偶数标号的子帧，以使两者在不同的子帧进行数据传输。此时，两个链路上可以使用同一频率资源进行通信，节约频率资源，且由于两个通信链路的子帧互相隔离，则通信时不会相互干扰。
2、基站与位于基站的覆盖范围内的任一终端之间的通信链路与回程链路配置的频率资源不同。
例如，两个链路上分别使用不同的载波频率。如，基站与位于基站的覆盖范围内的任一终端之间的通信链路所使用的载波频率为2300MHZ，而回程链路所使用的载波频率为2500MHZ。此时，两个链路上可以使用相同的时间资源进行通信，如，在同一子帧上进行通信，降低通信时延。
3、基站与位于基站的覆盖范围内的任一终端之间的通信链路与回程链路对应的波束所占的空间不重叠。
不同波束在空间上指向性不同，所占的空间也不同，其中波束所占的空间是指波束的覆盖范围。该通信链路和该回程链路可以对应于所占的空间不重叠的波束，该基站通过这两个链路传输数据时，可以应用所占的空间不重叠的波束，从而避免相互干扰。此时，该通信链路和该回程链路可以使用相同的时间资源和/或频率资源，既能降低通信时延，也能节约频率资源，且不会造成通信干扰。
当然，上述为两个链路分配不同的传输资源是示例性的。如果建立了多条回程链路，或者基站需要为覆盖范围内的多个终端提供通信服务，则也可以应用上述分配传输资源的方式，为多条回程链路、以及基站与覆盖范围内的多个 终端的通信链路分配不同的传输资源，以避免通信时的干扰。
本实施例提供的方法，通过提供一种新的建立回程链路的方式，在已与核心网建立第一通信链路的指定终端与基站之间建立第二通信链路，第一通信链路和第二通信链路构成回程链路，则基站可以通过该回程链路接入核心网。建立回程链路的方式更加灵活便捷，任一基站采用该方式可以建立多条回程链路，可扩展性强。
另外，本公开实施例支持为基站建立多条回程链路，因此，可以根据通信需求量的多少，及时且合理地为该基站建立一个或多个回程链路，即形成回程链路的聚合链路，在解决带宽受限的同时，也能提高通信效率。
事实上，本公开实施例可以应用于多种不同的场景下。
本公开实施例可以应用于采集传感器数据的场景下，例如，图4C是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种通信系统的示意图。参见图4C，基站作为传感器网络的控制中心，可以与覆盖范围内的任一传感器终端进行通信，而且可以通过至少一个指定终端建立回程链路。
相关技术中，传感器采集的数据可以定期上传至服务器，而不能实时上传，导致服务器所获取的数据可能过时，而应用本公开实施例建立回程链路之后，传感器终端所采集的数据可以通过基站、回程链路，实时地上传到核心网，进而可以通过核心网上传到服务器，实现了传感器所采集数据的实时传输，保证了即时性。
本公开实施例可以应用于无人机的场景下，例如，图4D是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种通信系统的示意图。参见图4D，在无人机上部署小基站，小基站可以与覆盖范围内的任一终端进行通信，而且可以通过至少一个指定终端建立回程链路。
相关技术中，传统的回程链路一般是固定的，很难实现部署移动的小基站。而本发明实施例解决了这一问题，即可以实现在无人机上部署小基站，从而通过控制无人机移动调整覆盖范围，为缺乏基础设施的地区提供通信服务，或者 临时为某一地区提供通信服务，灵活性更高。
