具体实施方式
本申请实施例应用于支持两种不同通信制式的通信系统,不同通信制式的通信系统是指采用不同无线接入技术(radio access technology,RAT)的通信系统,两种不同通信制式用第一通 信制式和第二通信制式加以区分。第一通信制式采用第一RAT,例如第一RAT为长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE),即第一通信制式为4G;第二通信制式采用第二RAT,例如第二RAT为新一代无线接入技术(New Radio Access Technology,NR),即第二通信制式为5G。4G通信系统和5G通信系统包括基站和核心网。以下对本申请中的部分用语进行解释说明,以便于本领域技术人员理解。
1)终端,又称之为用户设备(User Equipment,UE),是一种向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备,例如,具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、车载设备等。常见的终端例如包括:手机、平板电脑、笔记本电脑、掌上电脑、移动互联网设备(mobile internet device,MID)、可穿戴设备,例如智能手表、智能手环、计步器等。
2)基站,又称为无线接入网(Radio Access Network,RAN)设备是一种将终端接入到无线网络的设备,其包括各种通信制式中的基站,例如包括但不限于:传输接收点(Transmission Reception Point,TRP)、演进型节点B(evolved Node B,eNB)、无线网络控制器(radio network controller,RNC)、节点B(Node B,NB)、基站控制器(Base Station Controller,BSC)、基站收发台(Base Transceiver Station,BTS)、家庭基站(例如,Home evolved NodeB,或Home Node B,HNB)、基带单元(BaseBand Unit,BBU)。此外,还可以包括Wifi接入点(Access Point,AP)等。
在本实施例中,不同通信制式的通信系统中的基站不同。为了区别起见,将4G通信系统的基站称为LTE eNB,5G通信系统的基站称为NR gNB,既支持4G通信系统又支持5G通信系统的基站称为eLTE eNB,这些名称仅为了方便区别,并不具有限制意义。
3)“多个”是指两个或两个以上,其它量词与之类似。“和/或”,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。字符“/”一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
请参考图1,其为本申请实施例提供的一种通信场景的示意图。如图1所示,5G通信系统包括下一代核心网(Next Generation Core,NGC)和连接NGC的无线接入网(Radio Access Network,RAN),连接NGC的RAN包括NR gNB 11和eNB 12。4G通信系统包括演进分组核心网(Evolved Packet Core,EPC)和连接EPC的RAN,连接EPC的RAN包括eNB 13和eNB 12,其中,eNB 13支持与EPC连接,不支持与NGC连接,eNB 12同时支持与EPC和NGC连接,在本实施例中,为了区分eNB 13和eNB 12,可将eNB 13称为LTE eNB,将eNB 12称为eLTE eNB。在通信组网时,可以对LTE eNB进行升级得到eLTE eNB,使得eLTE eNB能够连接NGC。
如图1所示,110表示NR gNB 11下的小区,120表示eNB 12下的小区,130表示eNB13下的小区。为了对终端进行位置管理,引入了区域的概念,例如在LTE系统中的跟踪区域(Tracking Area,TA)。eNB 12广播其下小区所在的跟踪区域的跟踪区域码(Tracking Area Code,TAC)和公共陆地移动网络标识(Public Land Mobile Network Identity,PLMN ID),TAC与PLMN ID组成跟踪区域标识(Tracking Area Identity,TAI)。TAC(或TAI)用于标识通信系统中用于对终端进行位置管理的区域。目前,LTE系统中的跟踪区域更新(Tracking Area Update,TAU)机制为:终端在空闲态进行移动,若终端当前进入的小区的跟踪区标识(Tracking Area Identity,TAI)在终端的TAI列表中,则终端不触发TAU,若终端当前进入的小区的TAI不在终端的TAI列表中,则终端触发TAU。
小区120所在TA的TAI可沿用4G通信系统中的TAI,从而不影响现有4G通信系统的TA规 划。采用现有的TAU机制,当终端移动到小区120时,常常会因为小区110和小区120规划在相同的TA或者相同的TA列表中或者小区120和小区130规划在相同的TA或者相同的TA列表中而不发起TAU,导致终端的通信可靠性不足。
例如,终端14同时支持4G通信系统和5G通信系统,当终端14在空闲态从小区130移动到小区120,由于小区130和小区120规划在相同的TA中,因此,终端14不会发起TAU,此时终端14不会接入NGC,无法获得5G网络的服务。再如,假设终端14在NGC下注册,NGC为终端14配置的TAI列表同时包括eLTE eNB下小区所在TA的TAI和NR gNB下小区所在TA的TAI,例如,NGC为终端14配置的TAI列表包括eNB 12下的小区120所在TA的TAI1和NR gNB 11下小区110所在TA的TAI2。基于LTE系统中的TAU机制,当终端14在空闲态从小区110移动到小区120时,终端14接收到eNB 12广播的小区120的TAI1,由于小区120的TAI1在终端14的TAI列表中,所以终端14不触发TAU。当终端14继续移动,从小区120移动到小区130时,终端14接收到eNB13广播的小区130的TAI,由于小区120沿用LTE系统中的TAI划分规则,则小区120的TAI可能会与小区130的TAI一致,若小区130的TAI同样为TAI1,由于小区130的TAI 1同样在终端14的TAI列表中,则终端14不触发TAU。当终端14停留在小区130,且NGC有下行业务要发送给终端14时,由于eNB 13不与NGC连接,则NGC将无法寻呼到终端14。
可见,现有的TA规划机制存在通信可靠性不足的问题。为解决该问题,本申请实施例中在支持两种通信制式的基站上规划了两种TA,并广播这两种TA的两个区域标识,具体提供了如下几种实施例,下面结合具体场景对实施例进行说明:
图2为本申请实施例提供的一种场景示意图,图3为本申请实施例提供的再一种场景示意图,图4为本申请实施例提供的通信方法的信令图,图5为本申请实施例提供的又一种场景示意图,在本实施例中,4G通信系统中小区的区域标识和5G通信系统中小区的区域标识采用相同的划分规则,在其他实施例中,4G通信系统中小区的区域标识和5G通信系统中小区的区域标识还可以采用不同的划分规则。
如图2所示,可为eLTE eNB下的小区分配两个不同的TAI,例如,给eNB 12下的小区120分配的两个不同的TAI,分别是TAI1和TAI2,其中一个用于4G通信系统,一个用于5G通信系统,以TAI1用于4G通信系统、TAI2用于5G通信系统为例,TAI1用于标识4G通信系统中用于对终端进行位置管理的区域,TAI2用于标识5G通信系统中用于对终端进行位置管理的区域,终端14进入eNB 12下的小区120时,终端14接收eNB 12广播的信息,eNB 12广播的信息中可以同时包括TAI1和TAI2,终端14进入eNB 12下的小区120有如下两种情况:
第一种:
如图3所示,终端14从eNB 13下的小区130进入eNB 12下的小区120,且在终端14从eNB 13下的小区130进入eNB 12下的小区120之前,终端14中存储的TAI列表是EPC分配的,EPC分配的TAI列表不包括5G通信系统中的小区的TAI,当终端14从eNB 13下的小区130进入eNB 12下的小区120后,终端14接收eNB 12广播的信息,eNB 12广播的信息包括TAI1和TAI2,终端14可同时接收TAI1和TAI2,也可以分时接收TAI1和TAI2。
若终端14同时支持4G通信系统和5G通信系统,则终端14从eNB 13下的小区130进入eNB 12下的小区120时,只要eNB 12连接NGC,终端14即向NGC发起TAU,即当终端14从eNB 13下的小区130进入eNB 12下的小区120时,不论eNB 12广播的4G通信系统的TAI例如TAI1是否在终端的TAI列表中,只要eNB 12广播的信息包括5G通信系统的TAI,终端14即向5G通信 系统的核心网NGC发起TAU。
由于eNB 12同时连接EPC和NGC,eNB 12对终端14发起的TAU只做转发、不做解析,因此,终端14在发起TAU时,还需要向eNB 12发送第一指示信元,该第一指示信元用于指示终端14发起的TAU是向NGC发起的。
该第一指示信元可以和TAU一起发送给eNB 12,例如第一指示信元和TAU消息在同一条无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)消息中发给eNB 12;该第一指示信元和TAU还可以分开发送给eNB 12,例如终端14通过在RRC消息中携带该第一指示信元,并将RRC消息发送给eNB 12,另外,终端14通过非接入层(Non-Access Stratum,NAS)消息向NGC发送TAU。相应的,如图4所示,终端、eLTE eNB、NGC之间的信令交互包括如下S41-S44:
S41、eLTE eNB向终端广播适用于4G通信系统的TAI1和适用于5G通信系统的TAI2。
S42、终端向eLTE eNB发送第一指示信元和TAU。
其中,第一指示信元用于指示终端发起的TAU是向NGC发起的,且TAU包括TAI2。
S43、eLTE eNB根据第一指示信元将TAU发送给NGC。
S44、NGC通过eLTE eNB向终端发送TAI列表1。
另外,需要说明的是,eNB 12之所以广播TAI 1,是为了兼容只支持4G通信系统的终端,例如,终端14是一个只支持4G通信系统的终端,小区130和小区120均是4G通信系统中的小区,两个小区的TAI可能相同,可能不同,当终端14从小区130移动到小区120之前,终端14的TAI列表是EPC分配的,当终端14从小区130移动到小区120后,终端14需要检测eNB 12广播的TAI1是否在终端14的TAI列表中,若eNB 12广播的TAI1在终端14的TAI列表中,则终端14不触发TAU,若eNB 12广播的TAI1不在终端14的TAI列表中,则终端14需要向EPC发起TAU。
第二种:
如图5所示,终端14从NR gNB 11下的小区110进入eNB 12下的小区120,且在终端14从NR gNB 11下的小区110进入eNB 12下的小区120之前,终端14中存储的TAI列表是NGC分配的,NGC分配的TAI列表不包括TAI1,终端14从NR gNB 11下的小区110进入eNB 12下的小区120后,检测eNB 12广播的5G通信系统的TAI例如TAI2是否在终端14的TAI列表中,若TAI2不在终端14的TAI列表中,则终端14向NGC发起TAU,若TAI2在终端14的TAI列表中,则终端14不向NGC发起TAU。
另外,在本实施例中,对于同时支持4G通信系统和5G通信系统的终端,当终端14从NR gNB11下的小区110进入eNB 12下的小区120时,终端14可以不检测eNB 12广播的4G通信系统的TAI1是否在终端14的TAI列表中,在其他实施例中,当终端14从NR gNB 11下的小区110进入eNB 12下的小区120时,终端14还需检测eNB 12广播的4G通信系统的TAI1是否在终端14的TAI列表中。
如图5所示,当终端14从NR gNB 11下的小区110进入eNB 12下的小区120时,终端14不检测eNB 12广播的4G通信系统的TAI1是否在终端14的TAI列表中,但是,当终端14继续移动,从小区120移动到小区130后,终端14将检测eNB 13广播的TAI是否在终端14的TAI列表中,例如,eNB 13广播的TAI是TAI1,TAI1不在终端14的TAI列表中,则终端14向EPC发起TAU。
本实施例,通过支持与第一通信制式的核心网和第二通信制式的核心网连接的基站广播针对这两种通信制式广播第一区域标识和第二区域标识,使得支持这两种通信制式的终端在进入该基站下的小区时,可以接收到两个区域标识,并根据第二区域标识进行区域更新以及时接入第二通 信制式的通信系统或者及时进行区域更新,降低终端寻呼失败的概率,提高了终端的通信可靠性。
另外,作为图4所示实施例的替代方案,终端通过eLTE eNB向NGC发起TAU之前,eLTE eNB获取终端的能力信息,若该能力信息表示终端支持5G通信系统,或者,该终端同时支持4G和5G通信系统,则当终端通过eLTE eNB向NGC发起TAU时,终端不需要向eLTE eNB发送指示信息,直接将TAU发送给eLTE eNB,eLTE eNB根据终端的能力信息,直接将TAU发送给NGC。若该能力信息表示终端只支持4G通信系统,则当该终端发起TAU时,eLTE eNB直接将该TAU发送给EPC。
图6为本申请实施例提供的又一种场景示意图,图7为本申请实施例提供的又一种通信方法的信令图。如图6所示,NR gNB 11广播的信息包括TAI3,eNB 12广播的信息包括TAI1和TAI2,TAI1用于4G通信系统,TAI2用于5G通信系统,eNB 13广播的信息包括TAI1,终端14同时支持4G和5G通信系统,终端14注册在NGC,NGC为终端14分配的TAI列表包括TAI3,终端14在空闲状态从NR gNB 11下的小区110进入eNB 12下的小区120时,由于eNB 12广播的用于5G通信系统的TAI2不在终端14的TAI列表中,因此,终端14向NGC发起TAU,NGC给终端14返回TAI列表1,TAI列表1中包括TAI2,终端14将其存储的原TAI列表更新为TAI列表1。若终端14继续移动,从eNB 12下的小区120移动到eNB 13下的小区130,由于eNB 13广播的TAI1不在终端14的当前TAI列表1中,eNB 13是4G通信系统的基站,小区130是LTE覆盖的小区,eNB 13不与NGC连接,则终端14向EPC发起TAU,EPC给终端14返回TAI列表2,TAI列表2中包括TAI1,终端14将其存储的TAI列表1更新为TAI列表2。
另外,终端14向NGC发起的TAU的格式和终端14向EPC发起的TAU的格式不同,例如,终端14向NGC发起5G NAS格式的TAU,终端14向EPC发起EPC NAS格式的TAU。
如图6所示,终端14在空闲态进行移动时,在发起TAU时,TAU的格式可根据终端14所处小区的支持能力确定,如果终端14所处的小区支持NGC连接,则优先发起5G NAS格式的TAU,如果终端14所处的小区只支持EPC连接,则发起EPC NAS格式的TAU。
此外,如图6所示,终端14同时支持4G和5G通信系统,当终端14从eNB 12下的小区120移动到eNB 13下的小区130时,由于eNB 13广播的TAI1不在终端14的当前TAI列表1中,eNB13是4G通信系统的基站,小区130是LTE覆盖的小区,eNB 13不与NGC连接,则终端14向EPC发起EPC NAS格式的TAU。当终端14从eNB 13下的小区130进入eNB 12下的小区120时,不论eNB 12广播的4G通信系统的TAI1是否在终端的TAI列表中,只要eNB 12连接NGC,终端14即向5G通信系统的核心网NGC发送5G NAS格式的TAU。若终端14在eNB 12下的小区120和eNB 13下的小区130来回移动时,每一次小区重选,终端14均需要向不同的核心网发送不同格式的TAU,即频繁的向NGC发送5G NAS格式的TAU、频繁的向EPC发送EPC NAS格式的TAU,出现所谓的乒乓现象。
为解决上述问题,在图6所示实施例的基础上,当终端14从NR gNB 11下的小区110进入eNB 12下的小区120时,终端14向EPC发起TAU。此外,当终端14从NR gNB 11下的小区110进入eNB 12下的小区120时,终端14是否向NGC发起TAU,取决于eNB 12广播的用于5G通信系统的TAI是否在终端14当前的TAI列表中,原理与图5所示实施例一致,此处不再赘述。
在本实施例中,假定终端14从NR gNB 11下的小区110进入eNB 12下的小区120时,eNB 12广播的用于5G通信系统的TAI在NGC给终端14配置的TAI列表中,则终端14不需要向NGC发起 TAU,但是依然需要向EPC发起TAU,EPC向终端14返回TAI列表,在本实施例中,当终端14在eNB 12下的小区120接收到EPC发送的TAI列表时,终端14保留原有的TAI列表即NGC给终端14配置的TAI列表,同时再存储EPC发送的TAI列表。
由于eNB 12同时连接EPC和NGC,eNB 12对终端14发起的TAU只做转发、不做解析,因此,终端14在发起TAU时,还需要向eNB 12发送第二指示信元,该第二指示信元用于指示终端14发起的TAU是向EPC发起的。相应的,如图7所示,终端、eLTE eNB、EPC之间的信令交互包括如下S71-S74:
S71、eLTE eNB向终端广播适用于4G通信系统的TAI1和适用于5G通信系统的TAI2。
S72、终端向eLTE eNB发送第二指示信元和TAU。
其中,第二指示信元用于指示终端发起的TAU是向EPC发起的,终端向eLTE eNB发送的消息还包括包括TAI1。
S73、eLTE eNB根据第二指示信元将TAU发送给EPC。
S74、EPC通过eLTE eNB向终端发送TAI列表2。
其中,TAI列表2包括TAI1。
在本实施例中,当终端14从NR gNB 11下的小区110进入eNB 12下的小区120时,终端14向EPC发起TAU,可以是终端14每次从NR gNB 11下的小区110进入eLTE eNB 12下的小区120时,终端14发起的,也可以是终端14判断出发生了乒乓现象后发起的,还可以是核心网发现网络中出现了乒乓现象后指示终端14发起的。
本实施例,终端从5G通信系统的小区进入eLTE eNB下的小区时,终端通过eLTE eNB向4G核心网发起TAU,4G核心网向终端发送TAI列表,当终端从eLTE eNB下的小区进入eLTE eNB下的小区时,由于终端已存储有4G核心网配置的TAI列表,该TAI列表可包括eLTE eNB下的小区的TAI,以及eLTE eNB下小区周围的LTE eNB下小区的TAI,当终端在eLTE eNB下小区和LTE eNB下小区来回移动时,由于eLTE eNB下的小区的TAI和该LTE eNB下小区的TAI都在终端的TAI列表中,则每一次小区重选,终端都不需要向不同的核心网发送不同格式的TAU,避免了终端频繁的向NGC发送5G NAS格式的TAU、频繁的向EPC发送EPC NAS格式的TAU,从而避免了所谓的乒乓现象。
图8为本申请实施例提供的又一种通信方法的信令图。在图6所示实施例的基础上,若终端14同时支持4G和5G通信系统,当终端14从NR gNB 11下的小区110进入eNB 12下的小区120时,或者,从eNB 13下的小区130进入eNB 12下的小区120时,终端14可同时向EPC发起EPC NAS格式的TAU、向NGC发起5G NAS格式的TAU,由于eNB 12同时连接EPC和NGC,eNB 12对终端14发起的TAU只做转发、不做解析,因此,终端14同时发起EPC NAS格式的TAU和5G NAS格式的TAU时,还需要同时向eNB 12发送第一指示信元和第二指示信元,第一指示信元用于指示终端发起的5G NAS格式的TAU记为TAU1是向NGC发起的,第二指示信元用于指示终端发起的EPC NAS格式的TAU记为TAU2是向EPC发起的。相应的,如图8所示,终端、eLTE eNB、EPC、NGC之间的信令交互包括如下S81-S86:
S81、eLTE eNB向终端广播适用于4G通信系统的TAI1和适用于5G通信系统的TAI2。
S82、终端向eLTE eNB发送第一指示信元和TAU1,以及第二指示信元和TAU2。
第一指示信元用于指示终端发起的TAU1是向NGC发起的,第二指示信元用于指示终端发起的 TAU2是向EPC发起的,TAU1包括TAI2,TAU2包括TAI1。
S83、eLTE eNB将TAU1发送给NGC。
S84、eLTE eNB将TAU2发送给EPC。
S85、NGC通过eLTE eNB向终端发送TAI列表1。
S86、EPC通过eLTE eNB向终端发送TAI列表2。
如果TAI列表1包括TAI2和TAI3,TAI列表2包括TAI1,终端接收到TAI列表1和TAI列表2后,可将TAI列表1和TAI列表2构成一个总的TAI列表,该TAI列表包括TAI列表1中的TAI,以及TAI列表2中的TAI,相比于TAI列表1或TAI列表2,该TAI列表是一个更大集合的TAI列表。
由于NR gNB 11广播的TAI3在更大集合的TAI列表中,eNB 12广播的5G通信系统的TAI2也在更大集合的TAI列表中,因此,当终端14在小区110和小区120之间来回移动时,终端14不需频繁发起TAU。同理,由于eNB 12广播的4G通信系统的TAI1在更大集合的TAI列表中,eNB 13广播的TAI1也在更大集合的TAI列表中,因此,当终端14在小区120和小区130之间来回移动时,终端14也不需频繁发起TAU,即TAI列表1和TAI列表2构成了一个更大集合的TAI列表,使得终端14在更大集合的TAI列表对应的小区之间移动时均不会发起TAU,避免终端14对应的核心网发生变化时,终端14需要向不同的核心网频繁的发起不同格式的TAU。
在本实施例中,终端14同时向EPC发起EPC NAS格式的TAU、向NGC发起5G NAS格式的TAU的方式,可以是终端14每次进入eLTE eNB下的小区时,终端14发起的,也可以是终端14判断出发生了乒乓现象后发起的,还可以是核心网发现网络中出现了乒乓现象后指示终端14发起的。
本实施例,终端移动到eLTE eNB下的小区时,同时向4G核心网和5G核心网分别发起不同格式的区域更新,4G核心网和5G核心网分别给终端分配不同的TAI列表,两个TAI列表构成了一个更大集合的TAI列表,使得终端在更大集合的TAI列表对应的小区之间移动时均不会发起TAU,避免终端对应的核心网发生变化时,终端频繁的发起TAU,节省了空口资源。
图9为本申请实施例提供的又一种场景示意图。作为图2所示实施例的一种替代方案,eNB 12广播的信息中可包括两个不同格式的区域标识,例如第一区域标识和第二区域标识,第一区域标识可以是跟踪区域码(Tracking Area Code,TAC),第二区域标识可以是寻呼区域码(Paging Area Code,PAC),由于TAI包括公共陆地移动网络标识(Public Land Mobile Network Identity,PLMN ID)和TAC,寻呼区域标识(Paging Area Identity,PAI)包括PLMN ID和PAC,TAC和PAC的格式不同,例如长度不同。如图9所示,对于终端14而言,若终端14的运营商是固定的,则PLMN ID是固定的,由于TAC和PAC的格式不同,则TAI和PAI的格式也不同,因此,如图9所示,TAI1用于标识4G通信系统中用于对终端进行位置管理的区域,PAI 1用于标识5G通信系统中用于对终端进行位置管理的区域。当终端14进入eNB 12下的小区时,eNB 12广播TAI1和PAI1,当终端14接收到TAI1和PAI1时,终端14根据TAI1和PAI1的格式不同,即可判断出PAI1用于5G通信系统,TAI1用于4G通信系统。或者,当终端14进入eNB 12下的小区时,eNB 12广播TAC1和PAC1,当终端14接收到TAC1和PAC1时,终端14根据TAC1和PAC1的格式不同,即可判断出PAC1用于5G通信系统,TAC1用于4G通信系统。
本实施例,通过eLTE eNB广播不同格式的第一区域标识和第二区域标识,使得eLTE eNB下小区内的终端可以根据第一区域标识和第二区域标识的不同形式,即可快速判断出用于5G通信系 统的区域标识和用于4G通信系统的区域标识。
另外,在图2所示实施例的基础上,eNB 12广播的信息中可包括两个相同格式的区域标识,例如第一区域标识和第二区域标识,第一区域标识为TAC1,第二区域标识为TAC2,由于TAI包括PLMN ID和TAC,若终端14的运营商是固定的,则PLMN ID是固定的,若TAC1和TAC2不同,则TAI1和TAI2不同。若终端14同时支持4G和5G,则eNB 12还需向终端14发送第一指示信息和第二指示信息,第一指示信息用于指示第一区域标识即TAC1用于4G,第二指示信息用于指示第二区域标识用于5G;或者,eNB 12向终端14发送一个指示信息,该指示信息用于指示第一区域标识即TAC1用于4G,第二区域标识即TAC2默认用于5G;再或者,eNB 12向终端14发送一个指示信息,该指示信息用于指示第二区域标识即TAC2用于5G,第一区域标识即TAC1默认用于4G。若终端14只支持4G,则eNB 12只需向终端14发送一个指示信息即可,该指示信息用于指示第一区域标识即TAC1用于4G,或者,该指示信息用于指示第二区域标识即TAC2用于5G。
本实施例,通过eLTE eNB发送第一指示信息和第二指示信息,分别标识eLTE eNB广播的第一区域标识和第二区域标识中,用于5G通信系统的区域标识和用于4G通信系统的区域标识,使得终端可准确区分出eLTE eNB广播的格式相同的第一区域标识和第二区域标识;另外,通过eLTE eNB发送一个指示信息,标识eLTE eNB广播的第一区域标识和第二区域标识中,用于5G通信系统的区域标识或用于4G通信系统的区域标识,使得终端可准确区分出eLTE eNB广播的格式相同的第一区域标识和第二区域标识中的一个,另一个可默认识别,从而有效减少了eLTE eNB发送的数据量。
