Abstract

Description

一种上行数据的传输方法、装置及设备 技术领域
本申请涉及但不限于通信领域,尤其是一种上行数据的传输方法、装置及设备。
背景技术
相关技术中无线局域网络(WLAN,Wireless Local Area Networks)和移动通信技术已经成为了两大非常成功的无线技术。一方面,在WLAN技术中,无线保真(Wi-Fi,Wireless-Fidelity)技术较大的优势在于:它是在未授权的频谱上运行的,任何人都可以部署Wi-Fi网络,而且能够支持人们能想到的几乎所有智能手持设备或物联网设备。Wi-Fi较适合的是大容量、高密度且低移动性的室内应用。另一方面,在移动通信技术在过去几十年里横扫全球,打造出了庞大的无线广域网络,例如,全球移动通信系统(GSM,Global System for Mobile Communication)、宽带码分多址(WCDMA,Wideband Code Division Multiple Access)网络,长期演进(LTE,Long Term Evolution)网络等。移动通信技术具备无处不在的室外覆盖、无缝移动等优点,更完美支持语音和流媒体等实时应用。两项技术的结合将为整个行业带来巨大的希望。
相关技术中,为了满足不断增长的流量需求,推出了LTE+Wi-Fi链路聚合(LWA)技术,借助LWA技术,可分离LTE数据载荷,一些流量会通过Wi-Fi传输,剩余的流量则通过LTE本身来传送,从而大大提升LTE服务的性能。然而,相关技术中的LWA技术中仅仅只实现了下行数据的融合,而所有上行数据仍然只能通过LTE网络进行发送。
所以,相关技术中并不存在一种针对上行数据的合理的LTE+Wi-Fi链路聚合方法。

本发明的较佳实施方式
下面结合附图对本发明的实施方式进行描述。需要说明的是,在不冲突的情况下,本申请中的实施例及实施例中的各种方式可以相互组合。
需要说明的是,本文中的术语“第一”、“第二”等是用于区别类似的对象,而不必用于描述特定的顺序或先后次序。如以下所使用的,术语“模块”可以实现预定功能的软件和/或硬件的组合。
本发明实施例提供一种通信系统,参见图1所示,该系统包括:用户设备(UE,User Equipment)10、WLAN接入点(Access Point,AP)11、基站12;
这里,UE可以为智能手机、平板电脑、智能手表、笔记本电脑等,在UE上可以设置有两个发送模块,即第一发送模块和第二发送模块。其中,第一发送模块设置为:向WLAN,如Wi-Fi等发送上行数据,第二发送模块设置为:向移动通信网络,如LTE、LTE-A、GSM或WCDMA等发送上行 数据;
这里,WLAN接入点可以为路由器、智能手机、平板电脑、个人电脑等;基站可以为移动通信网络的基站,如LTE和LTE-A中的演进性基站(eNB,Evolved Node B)、WCDMA中的Node B等。
在实际应用中,以移动通信网络为LTE,WLAN为Wi-Fi为例,上述系统不同设备的用户面协议可以参见图2所示,其中,UE具有用于向LTE网络传输上行数据的分组数据汇聚(PDCP,Packet Data Convergence Protocol)层、无线链路层控制(RLC,Radio Link Control)层和媒体接入控制(MAC,Media Access Control)层,以及用于向Wi-Fi网络传输上行数据的LTE与无线局域网融合协议(LWAAP,LTE WLAN Aggregation Application Protocol)层和WLAN层。
那么,可选地,当UE需要发送上行数据时,UE需要发送的数据在PDCP层封装成PDCP协议数据单元(PDCP PDU,PDCP Protocol Data Unit),也就是LTE数据包,然后,将增加了PDCP协议头的LTE数据包,一部分发送到较低层,也就是RLC层,再经过MAC层在物理层向基站发送,另一部分发送至LWAAP层,由LWAAP层进行协议转换,将LTE数据包转换为Wi-Fi数据包后,发送至WLAN层,由WLAN层将Wi-Fi数据包发送至WLAN接入点,再由WLAN接入点发送给基站。
下面结合上述通信系统,对本发明实施例提供的上行数据的传输方法进行说明。
实施例一:
图3-1为本发明实施例一中的上行数据的传输方法流程示意图,参见图3-1所示,上述方法包括:
S311:UE获取待发送上行数据包;
可选地,UE在需要发送上行数据时,首先,将数据封装成能够在移动通信网络中传输的待发送上行数据包,如LTE数据包。
S312:UE按照第一预设分离发送策略,将待发送上行数据包通过无线局域网WLAN和/或移动通信网络发送至基站;
在实施过程中,图3-2为本发明实施例一中的发送上行数据的方法流程示意图,参见图3-2所示,上述方法可包括:
S3121:UE确定待发送上行数据包的数量;
S3122:UE判断待发送上行数据包的数量是否大于或者等于分离发送门限值;
可选地,UE在通过S311获得待发送上行数据包后,能够计算出待发送上行数据包的数量,然后,将该数量与分离发送门限值进行比较,判断上述数据包的数量是否大于或者等于分离发送门限值。
在本发明其他实施例中,分离发送门限值可以包含在控制参数中下发,也就是说,基站可以将分离门限值携带在控制参数中下发给UE,当然,也可以单独下发分离门限值,本发明实施例不做限定。那么,在S311之前,该方法还可以包括:UE接收基站下发的控制参数,控制参数至少包括分离门限值。
在实际应用中,基站可以通过专有高层信令来下发分离门限值或者至少包括分离门限值的控制参数,也可以复用其他通信过程,如无线资源控制(RRC,Radio Resource Control)连接建立过程、RRC连接重建过程、RRC连接配置过程等。
例如,参见图3-3所示,上述方法还可包括:UE向基站发送RRC连接建立请求(RRCConnectionRequest)消息,基站响应该请求消息,将控制参数携带在建立连接响应(RRCConnectionSetup)消息中发送给UE,UE向基站返回RRC连接建立完成(RRCConnectionSetupComplete)消息;或者,
参见图3-4所示,上述方法还可包括:UE向基站发送RRC重建请求(RRCConnectionReestablishmentRequest)消息,基站响应该请求将控制参数携带在重建连接响应(RRCConnectionReestablishment)消息中发送给UE,UE向基站返回RRC连接重建完成(RRCConnectionReestablishmentComplete)消息;或者,
参见图3-5所示,上述方法还可包括:基站将控制参数携带在RRC连接重配置(RRCConnectionReconfiguration)消息中发送给UE,UE向基站返回 RRC连接重配置完成(RRCConnectionReconfigurationComplete)消息。
当然,分离门限值或者上述控制参数还可以携带在其他由基站下发给UE的消息中;可选地,当控制参数复用其他通信过程时,控制参数中还可以包括其他参数,本发明实施例不做限定。
可以说明的是,上述分离发送门限值为经验值,本领域技术人员可根据实际需求进行设置,本发明实施例不做限定。
S3123:当待发送上行数据包的数量大于或者等于分离发送门限值时,UE按照第二预设分离发送策略,将待发送上行数据包中至少一部分数据包通过无线局域网WLAN发送至基站;
可选地,如图3-2中实线所示,如果UE判断出待发送上行数据包的数量大于或者等于分离发送门限值,也就是说,待发送上行数据包的数据量比较大时,UE可以按照第二预设分离发送策略,将待发送上行数据包中的至少一部分数据包通过WLAN发送至基站,也就是说,UE将上行数据包中的至少一部分数据包进行协议转换,转换为适合在WLAN中传输的数据包,然后,将转换后的数据包发送至WLAN接入点,由WLAN接入点发送至基站。
在本发明其他实施例中,S312还可以包括:获取WLAN当前的网络传输速率以及移动通信网络当前的网络传输速率;如果WLAN当前的网络传输速率远大于移动通信网络当前的网络传输速率,例如二者之差大于预设的一第一速率门限或者二者的比值大于预设的一第一门限,则将待发送上行数据包全部通过WLAN发送至基站。也就是说,UE获取WLAN和移动通信网络当前的网络传输速率,如果WLAN的网络传输速率特别快时,就将全部待发送上行数据包通过WLAN发送至基站,反之,如果移动通信网络的网络传输速率特别快时,例如移动通信网络当前的网络传输速率与WLAN当前的网络传输速率之差大于预设的一第二速率门限或者二者的比值大于预设的一第二门限,则可以将全部待发送上行数据包通过移动通信网络发送至基站。
S3124:当上行数据包的数量小于分离发送门限值时,UE将待发送上行数据包全部通过移动通信网络发送至基站。
这里,可选地,在S3122之后,如图3-2中虚线所示,如果UE判断出待发送上行数据包的数量小于分离发送门限值,也就是说,待发送上行数据 包的数据量较小时,UE可以将待发送上行数据包全部通过移动通信网络发送至基站。
在本发明其他实施例中,在S3122之后,该方法还可以包括:当待发送上行数据包的数量大于或者等于分离发送门限值时,检测WLAN是否可用;当WLAN不可用时,将待发送上行数据全部通过移动通信网络发送至基站。
这里,可选地,当待发送上行数据包需要分离发送时,UE还需要检测一下WLAN是否可用,如果可用,则分离发送数据包,反之,UE将待发送上行数据全部通过移动通信网络发送至基站,如此,避免分离发送数据包失败。
S313:基站将上行数据包转发至移动通信网络中的核心网设备。
由此可见,在本发明实施例中,UE能够根据第一预设分离发送策略来决定什么时候分离上行数据包,使得上行数据包能够在WLAN和/或移动通信网络中发送给基站,该基站可以为移动通信网络中的基站,再由该基站将上行数据包转发至移动通信网络的核心网侧,如此,便实现了上行数据的WLAN和移动通信网络链路融合,提高上行数据的传输速率,进而使得用户体验有较大的提升。
实施例二:
基于前述实施例,在实际应用中,UE可以将上行数据包划分成两部分数据包,分别通过WLAN和移动通信网络发送给基站,实现上行数据的融合发送。
那么,图4为本发明实施例二中的上行数据的传输方法流程示意图,参见图4所示,上述方法还包括:
S401:UE确定待发送上行数据包的数量;
S402:UE判断待发送上行数据包的数量是否大于或者等于分离发送门限值;
这里,S401至S402的执行过程与上述S3121至S3122的执行过程一致,在此不再赘述。
S403:当待发送上行数据包的数量大于或者等于分离发送门限值时,UE按照第二预设分离发送策略,将待发送上行数据包划分为第一部分数据包和第二部分数据包;
在实施过程中,上述S403可以且不限于包括以下两种情况。
第一种情况,UE可以根据当前网络的情况进行数据包的划分。那么,S403可以包括:获取WLAN当前的网络传输速率以及移动通信网络当前的网络传输速率;按照WLAN当前的网络传输速率与移动通信网络当前的网络传输速率的比例,将待发送上行数据包划分为第一部分数据包和第二部分数据包。
这里,如果UE判断出待发送上行数据包的数量大于或者等于分离发送门限值,那么,UE可以分别获取WLAN当前的网络传输速率和移动通信网络当前的网络传输速率,然后,UE按照两者的比例,将上行数据包划分成第一部分数据包和第二部分数据包。例如,上行数据包总共有500M的数据,UE获取的LTE的速率是100Mbps,Wi-Fi的速率是400Mbps,此时,UE将具有400M数据的上行数据包划分为第一部分数据包,将具有100M数据的上行数据包划分为第二部分数据包。
第二种情况,基站除了向UE下发分离发送门限值之外,还可以下发分离比例。与分离发送门限值一致,分离比例也可以由基站通过专有高层信令来下发,或者复用其他通信过程,比如,参见图3-3至图3-5所示,复用RRC连接建立过程、RRC连接重建过程、RRC连接配置过程等。当然,上述分离比例还可以为UE自身配置的,也可以为与基站协商确定的,本发明实施例不做限定。
可选地,分离比例也可以包含在控制参数中下发,也就是说,基站可以将分离比例携带在控制参数中下发给UE,当然,也可以单独下发分离比例,本发明实施例不做限定。那么,在S403之前,上述方法还可以包括:接收基站下发的控制参数,控制参数包括分离门限值以及分离比例。
可以说明的是,上述分离比例可以为WLAN的待发送上行数据量比上移动通信网络的待发送上行数据量。
此时,S403可以包括:按照分离比例,将待发送上行数据包划分为第一 部分数据包和第二部分数据包,分离比例是由基站下发的。
这里,如果UE判断出待发送上行数据包的数量大于或者等于分离发送门限值,那么,UE可以获取基站下发的分离比例,然后,按照该分离比例,将上行数据包划分成第一部分数据包和第二部分数据包。例如,上行数据包总共有500M的数据,UE的分离比例为4,也就是说,此时,UE将具有400M数据的上行数据包划分为第一部分数据包,将具有100M数据的上行数据包划分为第二部分数据。
S404:UE将第一部分数据包通过WLAN AP发送至基站;
S405:UE将第二部分数据包通过移动通信网络发送至基站;
这里,S404至S405可以包括:UE在将待发送上行数据包划分为第一部分数据包和第二部分数据包后,分别通过WLAN和移动通信网络将这两部分上行数据包发送给基站。
例如,参见图2所示,PDCP层将第一部分数据包发送到LWAAP层,再发送到WLAN层,然后,通过Wi-Fi转发到Wi-Fi AP,进而转发至基站;而第二部分数据包则由PDCP层发送到RLC层,再通过RLC层转发至MAC层和物理层(Physical Layer,PHY层),进而通过LTE网络发送到基站。
S406:基站对上行数据包进行排序;
这里,由于基站分别通过WLAN和移动通信网络接收到上行数据包,就有可能不是按数据包的序号顺序收到的这些数据包,所以,基站可以对上行数据包进行重排序,以便将接收到的数据包按照序号进行排序。例如,基站先通过WLAN收到第一部分数据包,分别为数据包1、3、5和7,再通过移动网络收到第二部分数据包,分别为数据包2、4、6和8,那么,此时,基站需要根据数据包的序号进行排序。
S407:基站将排序后的上行数据包发送至核心网设备。
在本发明其他实施例中,如果UE判断出待发送上行数据包的数量小于分离发送门限值,也就是说,待发送上行数据包的数据量较小时,UE可以将待发送上行数据包全部通过移动通信网络发送至基站。
至此,便完成了上行数据在WLAN和移动通信网络的融合发送。
由上述可知,在本实施例中,UE判断出待发送数据包大于分离发送门限值后,根据第二预设分离发送策略,将待发送上行数据包划分为第一部分数据包和第二部分数据包,然后,将第一部分数据通过WLAN发送给基站,将第二部分数据通过移动通信网络发送给基站,实现WLAN和移动通信网络的融合发送,大大提高了上行数据的传输速率,提升用户体验。
