本发明涉及无线通信领域, 特别涉及多播广播业务(Multicast Broadcast Service, 简称" MBS" )技术。 背景技术  The present invention relates to the field of wireless communications, and in particular, to a Multicast Broadcast Service (MBS) technology. Background technique
随着通信技术的发展和用户需求的增长,数据业务得到了迅速发展,数据 业务量的迅速增长使得人们对通信带宽的需求日益高涨,宽带接入正在向产业 界展现出一个巨大的市场。 为突破接入网的带宽瓶颈,人们推出了多种宽带接 入技术。  With the development of communication technology and the growth of user demand, data services have developed rapidly. The rapid growth of data traffic has led to an increasing demand for communication bandwidth. Broadband access is showing a huge market to the industry. In order to break through the bandwidth bottleneck of the access network, various broadband access technologies have been introduced.
IEEE802.16是电子和电气工程师协会( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 简称' ΊΕΕΕ" )于 2001年 12月颁布的, 用于在城域网中提供最后一 公里无线宽带接入的标准。  IEEE 802.16 was issued by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers ('ΊΕΕΕ') in December 2001 to provide the last mile of wireless broadband access in metropolitan area networks.
微波接入全球互通 ( Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access, 简 称" WiMAX" )是目前业界对基于 IEEE 802.16 系列标准的无线城域网接入技 术, 其基本目标是提供一种在城域网一点对多点的多厂商环境下, 可有效互操 作的宽带无线接入手段。  Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) is the industry's wireless metropolitan area network access technology based on the IEEE 802.16 series of standards. Its basic goal is to provide a point-to-multipoint network in the metropolitan area network. Broadband wireless access means that can interoperate effectively in a multi-vendor environment.
具体地说, 802.16系列标准规定了 WiMAX系统的空中接口部分协议层, 主要包括物理层 (PHY ), 以及媒体接入控制 (Medium Access Control, 简称 "MAC" )层。 其中, PHY层在物理上完成对信号的调制解调以及编解码等操 作, 而 MAC层主要完成 WiMAX系统的媒体接入控制功能。  Specifically, the 802.16 series of standards specifies the protocol layer of the air interface part of the WiMAX system, including the physical layer (PHY) and the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer. The PHY layer physically performs modulation, demodulation, and codec operations on the signal, and the MAC layer mainly implements the media access control function of the WiMAX system.
图 1示出 WiMAX端到端参考模型。 其中 R1接口为无线空中接口, 主要 由 IEEE802.16d/e定义。 其余接口均为有线接口。  Figure 1 shows the WiMAX end-to-end reference model. The R1 interface is a wireless air interface and is mainly defined by IEEE802.16d/e. The remaining interfaces are all wired interfaces.
如图可见, WiMAX主要包含移动台 (Mobile Station, 简称" MS" ) /用户 站( Subscribe Station, 简称" SS,,)、 接入服务网络( Access Service Network, 简称" ASN" ) 与连接服务网络(Connectivity Service Network, 简称" CSN" )。 As can be seen, WiMAX mainly includes mobile station (Mobile Station, referred to as "MS") / user Subscriber ("Sc,"), Access Service Network ("ASN") and Connectivity Service Network ("CSN").
ASN定义为为 WiMAX用户终端提供无线接入服务的网络功能集合, ASN 包含了 BS和 ASN网关 (ASN GateWay, 简称" ASN-GW" ) 网元, 一个 ASN 可能被多个 CSN共享。  The ASN is defined as a set of network functions that provide wireless access services for WiMAX user terminals. The ASN includes BS and ASN GateWay ("ASN-GW") network elements, and an ASN may be shared by multiple CSNs.
ASN的主要功能包含 BS的功能和 ASN-GW的功能。其中, BS的功能有: 提供 BS和用户站 SS/ MS的 L2连接、 无线资源管理、 测量与功率控制和空口 (即空中接口)数据的压缩与加密。 ASN-GW的功能有: 为 SS/MS认证、 授 权、 计费功能提供代理(proxy )功能; 支持网络业务提供商(Network Service Provider, 简称" NSP" )的网络发现和选择; 为 SS提供 L3信息的中继( Relay ) 功能, 如 IP地址分配。  The main functions of the ASN include the functions of the BS and the functions of the ASN-GW. Among them, the functions of the BS are: providing L2 connection between the BS and the subscriber station SS/MS, radio resource management, measurement and power control, and compression and encryption of air interface (ie, air interface) data. The functions of ASN-GW include: providing proxy function for SS/MS authentication, authorization, and accounting functions; supporting network discovery and selection of Network Service Provider (NSP); providing L3 for SS Relay function of information, such as IP address allocation.
CSN为 WiMAX用户终端提供 IP连接服务。 CSN主要提供如下功能: SS/MS的 IP地址分配, Internet接入, 认证、授权、 计费协议( Authentication, Authorization, Account, 简称" AAA" )代理或者服务, 基于用户的授权控制, ASN到 CSN的隧道, WiMAX用户的计费以及运营商之间的结算, 漫游情况 下 CSN之间的隧道, ASN之间的切换, 和各种 WiMAX服务(如基于位置的 业务、 多媒体多播和广播业务、 IP多媒体子系统业务)。  CSN provides IP connection services for WiMAX user terminals. The CSN mainly provides the following functions: IP address allocation of SS/MS, Internet access, Authentication, Authorization, Account ("AAA") proxy or service, user-based authorization control, ASN to CSN Tunnels, billing for WiMAX subscribers, and settlement between operators, tunneling between CSNs in roaming, switching between ASNs, and various WiMAX services (such as location-based services, multimedia multicast and broadcast services, IP Multimedia Subsystem Service).
MS/SS为 (移动)终端, 用户使用该终端接入 WiMAX网络。  The MS/SS is a (mobile) terminal that the user uses to access the WiMAX network.
以上对 WiMAX及其网络构架进行了说明, 下面对 MBS进行简单介绍。 随着 Internet (因特网 ) 的迅猛发展, 人们对移动通信的需求已不再满足 于电话和消息业务, 大量多媒体业务涌现出来, 其中一些应用业务要求多个用 户能同时接收相同数据, 如视频点播、 电视广播、 视频会议、 网上教育、 互动 多播和广播技术来实现 ,但是将这些业务移植到移动网上,与一般的数据相比 , 由于这些业务具有数据量大、 持续时间长、 时延敏感等特点, 并且移动网具有 特定的网络结构、 功能实体和无线接口等, 现有 IP多播和广播技术并不能直 接适用于移动网。  The above describes WiMAX and its network architecture. The following is a brief introduction to MBS. With the rapid development of the Internet (Internet), people's demand for mobile communication is no longer satisfied with telephone and messaging services, and a large number of multimedia services have emerged. Some of these application services require multiple users to receive the same data at the same time, such as video on demand. TV broadcasts, video conferencing, online education, interactive multicast and broadcast technologies are implemented, but these services are ported to mobile networks, compared to general data, because of the large amount of data, long duration, delay sensitivity, etc. Features, and the mobile network has a specific network structure, functional entities and wireless interfaces, etc. Existing IP multicast and broadcast technologies are not directly applicable to mobile networks.
为了有效地利用移动网络资源, WiMAX定义了 MBS业务, MBS业务是 在移动网络中提供一个数据源向多个用户发送数据的点到多点业务,实现网络 资源共享, 提高网络资源的利用率, 尤其是空口接口资源。 WiMAX 定义的 MBS 不仅能实现纯文本低速率的消息类多播和广播, 而且还能实现高速多媒 体业务的多播和广播, 这无疑顺应了未来移动数据发展的趋势。 In order to effectively utilize mobile network resources, WiMAX defines MBS services, which are point-to-multipoint services that provide a data source to transmit data to multiple users in a mobile network. Resource sharing, improve the utilization of network resources, especially air interface resources. WiMAX-defined MBS not only enables low-speed message-like multicast and broadcast in plain text, but also enables multicast and broadcast of high-speed multimedia services, which undoubtedly conforms to the trend of future mobile data development.
在 WiMAX网络中,通过服务流标识( Service Flow Identifier,简称" SFID" ) 来标识不同的单向服务流, 通过 CID来标识不同的连接, 所有的服务流在空 口通过 MAC层的连接进行传送,通过在服务流的 SFID与 MAC层连接的 CID 之间进行映射, 将服务流在对应的连接上传输。 基于 WiMAX网络的 MBS业 务在上述标识的基础上, 还通过多播连接标识(Multicast CID, 简称" MCID" ) 专门标识多播连接, 通过多播内容标识 (MBS Contents ID )来标识一个多播 业务, 一个 Multicast CID上传输的协议数据单元(Protocol Data Unit, 简称 "PDU" ) 可以包含一个或多个 MBS业务。  In a WiMAX network, a service flow identifier ("SFID") is used to identify different one-way service flows, and different connections are identified by CIDs. All service flows are transmitted through the MAC layer connection in the air interface. The service flow is transmitted on the corresponding connection by mapping between the SFID of the service flow and the CID connected to the MAC layer. Based on the above identification, the MBS service based on the WiMAX network also identifies the multicast connection through a multicast connection identifier (Multicast CID, referred to as "MCID"), and identifies a multicast service through a multicast content identifier (MBS Contents ID). A Protocol Data Unit ("PDU") transmitted on a Multicast CID may contain one or more MBS services.
在 MBS业务中, 某些全球定义的服务流可以携带到多个终端的广播或多 播信息, 这些服务流包含服务质量(Quality of Service, 简称" QoS" )参数, 为 了提高业务的安全性, 可以用全球定义的数据加密密钥对其进行加密。  In the MBS service, some globally defined service flows may carry broadcast or multicast information to multiple terminals. These service flows include Quality of Service (QoS) parameters. To improve service security, It can be encrypted with a globally defined data encryption key.
基于 WiMAX网络的 MBS业务支持两种接入模式: 单基站接入和多基站 接入。在多基站接入模式下, 定义了 MBS域(即 MBS Zone, 用 MBS— zone ID 来标识 ) 的概念, 所谓一个 MBS域就是一个基站的集合, 一个 MBS域内的 所有基站用相同的 MCID 和 MBS 组安全联盟 ( MBS Group Security Association, 简称" MBS GSA" ), 发送同一 MBS服务流的内容, 注册了 MBS 服务的终端可以在该 MBS域内通过多个基站接收 MBS业务数据, 并且处于 空闲态的终端在 MBS域内跨基站移动时, 不需重建连接, 可以不受影响的接 收 MBS业务, 实现 MBS业务的无缝切换。 单基站接入 MBS是多基站接入 MBS的一种特例, MBS域范围限定为一个基站覆盖范围内, 一个 MBS域内 接收该 MBS的所有用户使用同一个 MCID。  The MBS service based on WiMAX network supports two access modes: single base station access and multiple base station access. In the multi-base station access mode, the concept of an MBS domain (ie, MBS Zone, identified by MBS_zone ID) is defined. An MBS domain is a collection of base stations, and all base stations in an MBS domain use the same MCID and MBS. The MBS Group Security Association (MBS GSA) sends the content of the same MBS service stream. The terminal that has registered the MBS service can receive the MBS service data through multiple base stations in the MBS domain, and the terminal is in the idle state. When moving across the base station in the MBS domain, there is no need to re-establish the connection, and the MBS service can be received without being affected, and the seamless switching of the MBS service is realized. Single-base station access MBS is a special case of multi-base station access MBS. The MBS domain is limited to one base station coverage. All users in the MBS domain receiving the MBS use the same MCID.
现有系统中空口的主要描述如下:  The main description of the existing system hollow port is as follows:
首先, 广播连接标识(广播 CID )上广播的下行映射(Downlink MAP, DL-MAP )消息包含一个或多个 MBS-MAP-IE, MBS-MAP-IE上每一项以 MBS 域 ID作为标识。  First, the Downlink MAP (DL-MAP) message broadcast on the broadcast connection identifier (Broadcast CID) contains one or more MBS-MAP-IEs, and each item on the MBS-MAP-IE is identified by the MBS domain ID.
第二, 一个 MBS-MAP-IE标识空口上广播一个 MBS-MAP消息的物理资 源; 如果是单基站模式则直接指示 MBS业务的物理资源。 Second, a MBS-MAP-IE identifies the physical resources of an MBS-MAP message broadcast on the air interface. Source; if it is a single base station mode, it directly indicates the physical resources of the MBS service.
第三,一个 MBS-MAP消息可以包含零到一个或多个 MBS-DATA-IE或者 扩展的 MBS-DATA-IE, 这些 MBS-DATA-IE之间的物理参数可以一致也可以 不一致, 由网络侧决定; 但是一个 MBS-DATA-IE仅仅只有一个物理参数集。  Third, an MBS-MAP message may contain zero to one or more MBS-DATA-IEs or extended MBS-DATA-IEs. The physical parameters between these MBS-DATA-IEs may be consistent or inconsistent, by the network side. Decided; but an MBS-DATA-IE has only one physical parameter set.
第四, 一个 MBS-DATA-IE 中包含一到多个多播 CID; 之所以要求一个 Fourth, one MBS-DATA-IE contains one or more multicast CIDs; one is required
MBS-DATA-IE包含一个到多个多播 CID, 是出于减小 MBS-MAP消息长度的 考虑, 把相同下行间隙使用码( Downlink Interval Usage Code, 简称 "DIUC" ) 的 MBS数据所对应的多播 CID都在一个 MBS-DATA-IE中指示出来。 在数据 传输上, 就是把 DIUC相同的 MAC PDU都放在一个物理资源突发(Burst ) 上传输,虽然不同 MBS业务的数据在 Burst内混在一起了,但是可以通过 MAC PDU头上的多播 CID在 MAC层上区分开。 不是所有的多播 CID对应于同一 个 MBS业务, 而是每一个多播 CID对应于一个 MBS业务。 The MBS-DATA-IE contains one or more multicast CIDs, which are for the purpose of reducing the length of the MBS-MAP message, and the MBS data corresponding to the Downlink Interval Usage Code ("DIUC"). Multicast CIDs are indicated in an MBS-DATA-IE. In data transmission, the same MAC PDUs of DIUC are placed on a physical resource burst (Burst) for transmission. Although the data of different MBS services are mixed in Burst, the multicast CID on the MAC PDU header can be passed. Distinguished on the MAC layer. Not all multicast CIDs correspond to the same MBS service, but each multicast CID corresponds to one MBS service.
第五,一个扩展 MBS-DATA-IE中,一个多播 CID还包含一到多个逻辑信 道 ID。 逻辑信道 ID是空口中使用的, 用于告知终端当前指示的 MBS数据中 是否有其感兴趣的内容。  Fifth, an extended MBS-DATA-IE, a multicast CID also contains one or more logical channel IDs. The logical channel ID is used in the air interface to inform the terminal whether the currently indicated MBS data has content of interest.
另外, DCD ( Downlink Channel Descriptor, 下行信道描述符)上可以携 带一个或多个 MBS域 ID。 依据协议 IEEE802.16e对内容标识 Content ID的规 定: Content ID和多播 CID以及逻辑信道 ID这一组信息——对应。 Content ID 是用来标识 WiMAX接入网服务流( SF , Service Flow )承载的上层数据流的。  In addition, DCD (Downlink Channel Descriptor) can carry one or more MBS domain IDs. According to the protocol IEEE802.16e, the content identification Content ID: Content ID and multicast CID and logical channel ID group information - corresponding. The Content ID is used to identify the upper layer data stream carried by the WiMAX access network service flow (SF, Service Flow).
DL-MAP消息指示出下一个 MBS-MAP消息发送的物理资源, 但是并不 区分 MBS-MAP消息中包含的多播 CID以及逻辑信道 ID; MBS-DATA-IE中 也有对下一个 MBS-MAP消息物理资源的指示, 与 DL-MAP中的指示不同在 于, 这里的 MBS-MAP消息是一个特殊的 MBS-MAP消息, 其中一定包含一 个 MBS-DATA-IE, 该 MBS-DATA-IE拥有和当前 MBS-DATA-IE—致的多播 CID和逻辑信道 ID。 这样, 终端就无需逐个接收 DL-MAP消息, 仅仅需要从 当前的 MBS-MAP-IE就可以知道下一个关心的 MBS-MAP消息的发送时刻。  The DL-MAP message indicates the physical resource to be sent by the next MBS-MAP message, but does not distinguish the multicast CID and the logical channel ID included in the MBS-MAP message; the MBS-DATA-IE also has the next MBS-MAP message. The indication of the physical resource, different from the indication in the DL-MAP, is that the MBS-MAP message here is a special MBS-MAP message, which must contain an MBS-DATA-IE, the MBS-DATA-IE owns and the current MBS. -DATA-IE - Multicast CID and Logical Channel ID. In this way, the terminal does not need to receive the DL-MAP message one by one, and only needs to know the transmission time of the next MBS-MAP message from the current MBS-MAP-IE.
另外, MBS-DATA-IE中还有一个改变指示, 如果没有改变, 就直接接收 MBS数据; 否则需要解析新的 MBS-DATA-IE, 以更新终端的相关 MBS信息。  In addition, there is a change indication in MBS-DATA-IE. If there is no change, it will receive MBS data directly; otherwise, it needs to parse the new MBS-DATA-IE to update the relevant MBS information of the terminal.
但是, 现有技术没有关于一个 ASN服务流承载多个 IP多播流情况下, 接 入网到基站到终端如何进行区分的描述。 发明内容 However, the prior art does not relate to an ASN service flow carrying multiple IP multicast streams. A description of how the network is divided into the base station to the terminal. Summary of the invention

下面对本发明第一实施方式进行说明, 本发明第一实施方式涉及 MBS业 务下行发送方法。  The first embodiment of the present invention will now be described. The first embodiment of the present invention relates to a MBS service downlink transmission method.
如图 2所示, 在步骤 201中, MBS服务器将 MBS业务承载在 IP流中发 送到 ASN网关。  As shown in FIG. 2, in step 201, the MBS server carries the MBS service bearer in the IP stream and sends it to the ASN gateway.

Then, the process proceeds to step 203. After receiving the IP flow, the base station allocates different MCIDs for the received service flows, and converts the data packets on the different service flows into MAC PDUs and transmits them to the terminal in different air interface connections. The terminal that needs to receive the MBS service may request the base station to join the service, obtain information such as the MCID of the service, and receive the MBS service from the air interface connection identified by the MCID.
本发明第二实施方式涉及 MBS业务下行发送方法, 本实施方式与第一实 施方式大致相同, 其区别在于, 在第一实施方式中, 基站为不同的服务流分配 不同的 MCID; 但在本实施方式中, 为了更高效地利用 MCID资源, 可以为同 一 MBS业务的相同 QoS参数的服务流(即这些服务流对应的 MBS业务的 QoS 相同 ), 分配相同的 MCID, 通过不同的逻辑信道来承载不同的 IP流。  The second embodiment of the present invention relates to a downlink transmission method for an MBS service, and the present embodiment is substantially the same as the first embodiment, except that in the first embodiment, the base station allocates different MCIDs for different service flows; In the mode, in order to use the MCID resource more efficiently, the service flows of the same QoS parameter of the same MBS service (that is, the QoS of the MBS service corresponding to the service flows are the same), the same MCID is allocated, and different logical channels are used to carry different IP flow.
具体如图 3所示, 在步骤 301中, MBS服务器将 MBS业务承载在 IP流 中发送到 ASN网关。  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, in step 301, the MBS server carries the MBS service in the IP stream and sends it to the ASN gateway.
接着进入步骤 302, ASN网关为所收到的各 IP流分配不同的 SFID, 对应 于不同的服务流, 将各服务流分别通过不同的 R6隧道传输到基站。 在本步骤 中, ASN网关还可以把用于唯一标识 MBS业务的内容标识( Content-ID )和 SFID的对应关系告知基站, 使得基站能够确定各服务流对应的 MBS业务。  Then, in step 302, the ASN gateway allocates different SFIDs to the received IP flows, corresponding to different service flows, and transmits the service flows to the base station through different R6 tunnels. In this step, the ASN gateway may also inform the base station of the correspondence between the content identifier (Content-ID) and the SFID for uniquely identifying the MBS service, so that the base station can determine the MBS service corresponding to each service flow.
接着进入步骤 303 , 基站为对应不同 MBS业务的服务流分配 MCID, 为 同一 MBS业务的 QoS参数相同的服务流分配相同的 MCID, 将同一 MBS业 务的 QoS参数相同的不同服务流上的数据包转换为 MAC PDU, 并将该 MAC PDU承载在同一个空口连接的不同逻辑信道中向终端发送。 基站和终端可通 过 LCID区分不同的 MBS业务,使得终端在请求某个 MBS业务时,基站可以 通过下发 LCID指示终端在指定空口连接的指定逻辑信道中接收该 MBS业务。  Then, in step 303, the base station allocates the MCID for the service flows corresponding to different MBS services, allocates the same MCID to the service flows with the same QoS parameters of the same MBS service, and converts the data packets on different service flows with the same QoS parameters of the same MBS service. It is a MAC PDU, and the MAC PDU is transmitted to the terminal in different logical channels connected by the same air interface. The base station and the terminal can distinguish different MBS services by using the LCID, so that when the terminal requests an MBS service, the base station can send the LCID to instruct the terminal to receive the MBS service in the designated logical channel connected to the designated air interface.
本发明第三实施方式涉及 MBS业务下行发送方法, 本实施方式与第二实 施方式大致相同, 其区别在于, 在第二实施方式中, ASN为不同的 IP流分配 不同的 SFID, 将其对应不同的月良务流; 而在本实施方式中, ASN为同一 MBS 业务的相同 QoS参数的 IP流分配相同的 SFID, 通过不同的 R6隧道将其传输 到基站。  A third embodiment of the present invention relates to a downlink transmission method for an MBS service. The present embodiment is substantially the same as the second embodiment. The difference is that, in the second embodiment, the ASN allocates different SFIDs for different IP flows, and the corresponding ones are different. In the present embodiment, the ASN allocates the same SFID to the IP flows of the same QoS parameter of the same MBS service, and transmits them to the base station through different R6 tunnels.
如图 4所示, 在步骤 401中, MBS服务器将 MBS业务承载在 IP流中发 送到 ASN网关。 接着进入步骤 402, ASN网关为所收到的各 IP流分配 SFID,为同一 MBS 业务的 QoS参数相同的 IP流分配相同的服务流标识,将同一 MBS业务的 QoS 参数相同的不同 IP流通过同一个的服务流的不同 R6隧道传输到基站。在本步 骤中, ASN网关还可以把用于唯一标识 MBS业务的内容标识和传输 R6隧道 的对应关系告知基站, 使得基站能够确定各 R6 隧道中服务流所对应的 MBS 业务。 As shown in FIG. 4, in step 401, the MBS server carries the MBS service bearer in the IP stream and sends it to the ASN gateway. Then, in step 402, the ASN gateway allocates an SFID to each received IP stream, and allocates the same service flow identifier for the same IP flow of the same MBS service, and passes the same IP flow with the same QoS parameter of the same MBS service. A different R6 tunnel of a service flow is transmitted to the base station. In this step, the ASN gateway may also inform the base station of the correspondence between the content identifier for uniquely identifying the MBS service and the transmission R6 tunnel, so that the base station can determine the MBS service corresponding to the service flow in each R6 tunnel.
接着进入步骤 403 , 基站为所收到的服务流分配 MCID, 将同一服务流中 来自不同 R6隧道的内容转换为 MAC PDU分别承载在同一个空口连接的不同 逻辑信道中向终端发送。由于基站和终端可通过 LCID区分不同的 MBS业务, 使得终端在请求某个 MBS业务时, 基站可以通过下发 LCID, 指示终端在指 定空口连接的对应逻辑信道中接收该 MBS业务。  Then, in step 403, the base station allocates the MCID to the received service flow, and converts the content from the different R6 tunnels in the same service flow into MAC PDUs, which are respectively carried in different logical channels connected by the same air interface to the terminal. The base station and the terminal can distinguish different MBS services by using the LCID, so that when the terminal requests an MBS service, the base station can send the LCID to instruct the terminal to receive the MBS service in the corresponding logical channel that is connected to the designated air interface.
本发明第四实施方式涉及 MBS业务下行发送方法, 本实施方式与第三实 施方式的区别在于, 在第三实施方式中, ASN为同一 MBS业务的相同 QoS 参数的 IP流分配相同的 SFID, 通过不同的 R6隧道传输将其传输到基站; 而 在本实施方式中, 在 ASN网关和基站之间建立一个基站粒度的 R6隧道, 通 过该隧道将来自 MBS服务器的 IP流发送给基站, 由基站进行区分不同 IP流 的服务参数,并且映射到不同 MCID以及 LCID上。所谓"基站粒度,,是指 ASN 网关和下属的每个基站之间只建一个隧道。  The fourth embodiment of the present invention relates to a downlink transmission method for MBS services. The difference between this embodiment and the third embodiment is that, in the third embodiment, the ASN allocates the same SFID to the IP flows of the same QoS parameter of the same MBS service. Different R6 tunnel transmissions are transmitted to the base station; in this embodiment, a base station granular R6 tunnel is established between the ASN gateway and the base station, and the IP flow from the MBS server is sent to the base station through the tunnel, and the base station performs Differentiate service parameters of different IP flows and map them to different MCIDs and LCIDs. The so-called "base station granularity" means that only one tunnel is established between the ASN gateway and each subordinate base station.
具体如图 5所示, 在步骤 501中, MBS服务器将 MBS业务承载在 IP流 中发送到 ASN网关。  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, in step 501, the MBS server carries the MBS service in the IP stream and sends it to the ASN gateway.
接着进入步骤 502, ASN网关将所收到的各 IP流直接通过基站粒度的 R6 隧道传输到基站。 在本步骤中, ASN网关还需要告知基站, 多播 IP流和内容 标识的对应关系。  Next, proceeding to step 502, the ASN gateway transmits the received IP flows directly to the base station through the R6 tunnel of the base station granularity. In this step, the ASN gateway also needs to inform the base station of the correspondence between the multicast IP stream and the content identifier.
接着进入步骤 503 , 基站收到各 IP数据包后, 直接对其进行分析, 得到 IP流信息, 并才艮据 IP流和内容标识的对应关系, 区分 R6隧道中的 IP流, 为 同一 MBS业务的 QoS参数相同的 IP流分配同一个 MCID, 并将同一 MBS业 务的 QoS参数相同的 IP流转换为 MAC PDU, 并将该 MAC PDU承载在同一 个空口连接的不同逻辑信道中向终端发送。 由于基站和终端可通过 LCID区分 不同的 MBS业务,使得终端在请求某个 MBS业务时,基站可以通过下发 LCID 指示终端在对应的逻辑信道中接收该 MBS业务。 Then, in step 503, after receiving the IP data packets, the base station analyzes the IP data packets to obtain the IP flow information, and then distinguishes the IP flows in the R6 tunnel according to the correspondence between the IP flows and the content identifiers, and is the same MBS service. The IP flows with the same QoS parameters are assigned the same MCID, and the IP flows with the same QoS parameters of the same MBS service are converted into MAC PDUs, and the MAC PDUs are carried in different logical channels connected to the same air interface to the terminal. The base station and the terminal can distinguish the different MBS services by using the LCID, so that the base station can deliver the LCID when requesting an MBS service. Instructing the terminal to receive the MBS service in the corresponding logical channel.
本发明第五实施方式涉及 MBS业务下行发送方法。在本实施方式中, ASN 网关收到 IP流后, 通过 Type - 2隧道方式对其进行分类处理, 将其映射到一 个服务流, 然后针对该服务流进行 IP 头压缩, 将其从 MAC服务数据单元 ( Service Data Unit , 简称" SDU" )划分为 MAC PDU , 在 MAC PDU上可包含 控制信息 (例如 LCID )。  A fifth embodiment of the present invention relates to a downlink transmission method of an MBS service. In this embodiment, after receiving the IP flow, the ASN gateway classifies the IP flow through the Type-2 tunneling method, maps it to a service flow, and then performs IP header compression on the service flow to obtain the MAC service data from the MAC service data. A Service Data Unit ("SDU") is divided into MAC PDUs, and control information (such as LCID) may be included in the MAC PDU.
具体如图 6所示, 在步骤 601中, MBS服务器将 MBS业务承载在 IP流 中发送到 ASN网关。  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, in step 601, the MBS server carries the MBS service in the IP stream and sends it to the ASN gateway.
接着进入步骤 602, ASN网关为所收到的各 IP流分配 SFID,为同一 MBS 业务的 QoS参数相同的 IP流分配相同的 SFID, 并将各 IP流的数据通过 Type - 2隧道方式转换成 MAC层数据包, 如 MAC PDU, 将同一服务流中不同 IP 流形成的 MAC层数据包通过不同的 R6隧道传输到基站。在 ASN网关就将 IP 流转换为 MAC PDU进行传输,使得终端可以在 MAC层区分出不同的多播 IP 流, 而不需要把所有的 MAC PDU都组合成 IP数据包以后才区分这个 IP数据 包是否是自身所需要接收的, 这对于终端来说, 能达到节省计算量以及能量的 效果。  Then, proceeding to step 602, the ASN gateway allocates an SFID for each received IP stream, allocates the same SFID for the same IP flow of the same MBS service, and converts the data of each IP stream into a MAC through the Type-2 tunneling mode. Layer data packets, such as MAC PDUs, transmit MAC layer data packets formed by different IP flows in the same service flow to the base station through different R6 tunnels. The ASN gateway converts the IP stream into a MAC PDU for transmission, so that the terminal can distinguish different multicast IP streams at the MAC layer, and does not need to combine all the MAC PDUs into IP data packets to distinguish the IP data packet. Whether it is what you need to receive, this can save the calculation and energy effect for the terminal.
接着进入步骤 603 , 基站为所收到的各服务流分配 MCID, 并将同一服务 流中来自不同 R6隧道的 MAC数据包转换为 MAC PDU (如果已经是 MAC PDU则不需要转换), 并将该 MAC PDU分别承载在同一个空口连接的不同逻 辑信道中向终端发送。 同样由于基站和终端可通过 LCID区分不同的 MBS业 务, 使得终端在请求某个 MBS业务时, 基站可以通过下发 LCID指示终端在 对应的逻辑信道中接收该 MBS业务。  Then, proceeding to step 603, the base station allocates an MCID for each received service flow, and converts the MAC data packets from different R6 tunnels in the same service flow into MAC PDUs (if it is already a MAC PDU, no conversion is needed), and the The MAC PDUs are respectively transmitted to the terminal in different logical channels connected by the same air interface. Similarly, the base station and the terminal can distinguish different MBS services by using the LCID, so that when the terminal requests an MBS service, the base station can instruct the terminal to receive the MBS service in the corresponding logical channel by sending the LCID.
本发明第六实施方式涉及 MBS业务下行发送方法, 本实施方式与第五实 施方式大致相同,其区别在于,在本实施方式中,在 ASN网关形成的 MAC PDU 包头的控制信息上, 包含一个 LCID, 无论 ASN网关到基站的数据如何传输, 基站都可以直接将数据通过对应的空口连接的逻辑信道传输到终端。  A sixth embodiment of the present invention relates to a downlink transmission method for an MBS service, and the present embodiment is substantially the same as the fifth embodiment, except that in the present embodiment, an LCID is included in control information of a MAC PDU header formed by an ASN gateway. Regardless of how the data of the ASN gateway to the base station is transmitted, the base station can directly transmit the data to the terminal through the logical channel of the corresponding air interface connection.
如图 7所示, 在步骤 701中, MBS服务器将 MBS业务承载在 IP流中发 送到 ASN网关。  As shown in FIG. 7, in step 701, the MBS server carries the MBS service in the IP stream and sends it to the ASN gateway.
接着进入步骤 702, ASN网关将来自 MBS服务器的 IP流转换成 MAC PDU, 并为同一个 IP流形成的 MAC PDU设置相同的 LCID,将 MAC PDU通 过隧道发送到基站, 基站根据 MAC PDU中的 LCID , 将收到的 MAC PDU承 载在对应的空口连接的逻辑信道中向终端发送。 由于在 ASN网关即将 IP流拆 分为 MAC PDU进行传输, 并在 MAC PDU包头的控制信息上增加 LCID, 使 得无论 ASN网关和基站间釆用何种形式传输,基站都可以直接将相关的 MAC PDU通过对应的逻辑信道传输给终端,且终端能够在 MAC层辨识接收到的数 据包是否为自身需要的, 无需将收到的 MAC PDU合并为 IP包, 再进行识别, 减少了终端的操作。 Then proceeding to step 702, the ASN gateway converts the IP stream from the MBS server into a MAC. PDU, and set the same LCID for the MAC PDU formed by the same IP flow, and send the MAC PDU to the base station through the tunnel. The base station carries the received MAC PDU in the logical channel of the corresponding air interface connection according to the LCID in the MAC PDU. Send to the terminal. Since the ASN gateway splits the IP flow into MAC PDUs for transmission, and adds the LCID to the control information of the MAC PDU header, the base station can directly directly associate the relevant MAC PDUs regardless of the form of transmission between the ASN gateway and the base station. The terminal is able to transmit to the terminal through the corresponding logical channel, and the terminal can identify whether the received data packet is required by the MAC layer, and does not need to combine the received MAC PDU into an IP packet, and then recognizes, thereby reducing the operation of the terminal.
在本实施方式中, 在 MAC PDU中设置 LCID的方式可以有以下三种: 1、 通过在 MAC PDU 的包头上新增一个固定的 LCID 字段, 用于设置 In this embodiment, there are three ways to set the LCID in the MAC PDU: 1. Add a fixed LCID field to the header of the MAC PDU to set
LCID, 为了保证字节对齐, 还可以可选地增加一个保留字段。 如图 8所示。 LCID, in order to ensure byte alignment, you can also optionally add a reserved field. As shown in Figure 8.
2、 通过 MAC PDU的包头中原有的保留字段标识 MAC PDU是否为承载 MBS业务, 即把原来的保留字段 ( Rsv ) 改为 MBS字段, 用于标识 MBS业 务, 如果该 MAC PDU中承载的是 MBS业务数据, 则将该字段设置为 1 , 否 则设置为 0。 在该 MBS字段为 1时, 在该 MAC PDU的包头新增 LCID字段, 用于设置 LCID, 同样, 为了保证字节对齐, 可以可选地增加一个保留字段, 如图 9所示。 该方式相对第一种方式而言, 在未传输 MBS业务时, 能够减小 MAC PDU的空间, 提高空口资源的利用率。  2. The original reserved field in the header of the MAC PDU is used to identify whether the MAC PDU is carrying the MBS service, that is, the original reserved field (Rsv) is changed to the MBS field, which is used to identify the MBS service, if the MAC PDU carries the MBS. For business data, set this field to 1, otherwise set to 0. When the MBS field is 1, an LCID field is added to the header of the MAC PDU to set the LCID. Similarly, to ensure byte alignment, a reserved field may be optionally added, as shown in FIG. Compared with the first method, the method can reduce the space of the MAC PDU and improve the utilization of the air interface resource when the MBS service is not transmitted.
3、可以利用现有技术中已有的扩展子头技术,将 ESF( Extended Subheader Field, 扩展子头域)标识设置为 1 , 为 MAC PDU构造一个扩展子头, 用于设 置 LCID, 该扩展子头的结构如图 10所示。 通过对 MAC PDU的结构进行修改, 新增 LCID标识, 使得终端可以从 MAC层开始辨识所接收的数据包是否为自身需要的, 即从 MAC层上接收所 感兴趣的业务, 终端无需将数据包合成 IP包之后, 再进行辨识, 降低了终端 操作的复杂度。 然而即使釆用该方法, 终端仍然需要在物理层把一个突发 ( Burst )中的数据都接收下来, 然后在 MAC层加以区分。 为了进一步降低终 端操作的复杂度, 可以在扩展 MBS-DATA-IE中为每一个 LCID分配独立的物 理资源, 通过所分配的物理资源传输对应逻辑信道中的 MAC PDU, 使得终端 从物理层就能够辨识所接收的数据, 从而只接收本终端感兴趣的 MAC PDIL 3. The extended subheader field (ESF) can be set to 1 by using the extended subheader technology existing in the prior art, and an extended subheader is configured for the MAC PDU to set the LCID. The structure of the head is shown in Figure 10. By modifying the structure of the MAC PDU, the LCID identifier is added, so that the terminal can identify from the MAC layer whether the received data packet is required by itself, that is, receiving the service of interest from the MAC layer, and the terminal does not need to synthesize the data packet. After the IP packet, the identification is performed, which reduces the complexity of the terminal operation. However, even with this method, the terminal still needs to receive data in a burst (Burst) at the physical layer and then distinguish it at the MAC layer. In order to further reduce the complexity of the terminal operation, each LCID may be allocated an independent physical resource in the extended MBS-DATA-IE, and the MAC PDU in the corresponding logical channel is transmitted through the allocated physical resource, so that the terminal The received data can be identified from the physical layer, so that only the MAC PDIL of interest to the terminal is received.
1. 以子信道(Subchannel ) 为单位为各逻辑信道分配物理资源, 通过设 定所分配的子信道数目,为每个逻辑信道分配至少一个子信道上属于其空口连 接的所有符号。 1. Allocate physical resources for each logical channel in units of subchannels. By setting the number of allocated subchannels, assign each symbol to all symbols belonging to its air interface connection on at least one subchannel.
2. 以符号 (Symbol )为单位为各逻辑信道分配物理资源, 通过设定所分 配的符号数目,为每个逻辑信道分配属于其空口连接的所有子信道上的至少一 个符号。  2. Allocate physical resources for each logical channel in units of symbols. By setting the number of assigned symbols, each logical channel is assigned at least one symbol on all subchannels whose air interface is connected.
3. 以基本时频块(Slot )为单位为各逻辑信道分配物理资源, 通过设定所 分配的基本时频块数目,为每个逻辑信道分配至少一个属于空口连接的基本时 频块。  3. Allocate physical resources for each logical channel in units of basic time-frequency blocks (Slots). By setting the number of basic time-frequency blocks allocated, assign at least one basic time-frequency block belonging to the air interface connection to each logical channel.
4. 通过设定起始子信道、 所分配的子信道数目, 以及这些子信道上的起 始符号和所分配的符号数目, 确定为逻辑信道分配的物理资源。  4. Determine the physical resources allocated for the logical channel by setting the starting subchannel, the number of allocated subchannels, and the starting symbols and the number of assigned symbols on those subchannels.
下面根据 802.16e的规定对以上四种方法进行具体说明。  The above four methods are specifically described below according to the provisions of 802.16e.
802.16e所规定的扩展 MB S-DATA-IE如下:  The extension MB S-DATA-IE specified by 802.16e is as follows:

为了在扩展 MBS-DATA-IE中为每一个 LCID分配物理资源, 可以通过四 种方式对其进行修改:  In order to allocate physical resources for each LCID in the extended MBS-DATA-IE, it can be modified in four ways:
一、 每一个 LCID都加一个 Subchannel长度的属性说明。  1. Each LCID adds a subchannel length attribute description.
二、 每一个 LCID都加一个 Symbol长度的属性说明。  Second, each LCID is added with a Symbol length attribute description.

在以上 LCID资源分配方式中, 可以以 Subchannel为单位进行资源分配 , 或以 Symbol为单位进行资源分配, 或以 Slot为单位进行资源分配。 在以 Slot 为单位进行资源分配时,还可以进一步分为 Subchannel优先和 Symbol优先两 种方式。  In the above LCID resource allocation method, resource allocation may be performed in units of Subchannel, or resource allocation may be performed in units of Symbol, or resource allocation may be performed in units of Slots. When resource allocation is performed in units of Slots, it can be further divided into Subchannel priority and Symbol priority.

在第四种方法中, MBS DIUC, Boosting、 Repetition coding indication与资 源分配无直接联系, 如果为每个 LCID 所分配的 MBS DIUC , Boosting, Repetition coding indication相同, 只是 OFDMA symbol offset (起始符号)、 Subchannel offset (起始子信道)、 No. OFDMA symbols (符号数目 )、 No. subchannels (子信道数目) 不同, 则可以为各逻辑信道统一分配 MBS DIUC、 Boostings Repetition coding indication, 具体^口下所示。 In the fourth method, MBS DIUC, Boosting, Repetition coding indication is not directly related to resource allocation, if MBS DIUC, Boosting, is allocated for each LCID, The Repetition coding indication is the same, except that the OFDMA symbol offset (starting symbol), Subchannel offset (starting subchannel), No. OFDMA symbols (number of symbols), and No. subchannels (number of subchannels) are different, and the logical channels can be unified.

The base station allocates different MCIDs for each service flow received, and the different service flows are sent to the terminal in different air interface connections, so that different MBS services are transmitted. , can be distinguished from each other, for example, when the base station, the MCID uniquely identifies an MBS service, so that the base station can uniquely determine the MBS service that the terminal needs to receive, and instruct the terminal to receive the MBS service from the corresponding air interface connection; or, the base station can also The service flows with the same QoS parameters of the same MBS service are assigned the same MCID, and each service flow is transmitted to the terminal in different logical channels connected to the same air interface. The same can be used to determine the MBS service that the terminal needs to receive through the LCID. The terminal receives the MBS service from the corresponding logical channel.
或者, ASN网关为同一 MBS业务的 QoS参数相同的 IP流分配相同的 SFID, 将这些 IP流承载在相同的服务流中通过不同的隧道传输到基站, 基站 可以根据接收的隧道辨识不同的 IP流, 另夕卜,基站同样可以为同一 MBS业务 的 QoS参数相同的 IP流分配相同的 MCID, 将来自不同隧道的服务流承载在 同一个空口连接的不同逻辑信道中向终端发送。通过 LCID同样能够达到唯一 标识 MBS业务的效果, 使得终端能根据实际需求接收指定的 MBS业务。  Alternatively, the ASN gateway allocates the same SFID to the same IP flows of the same MBS service with the same QoS parameters, and carries the IP flows in the same service flow and transmits them to the base station through different tunnels. The base station can identify different IP flows according to the received tunnel. In addition, the base station can also allocate the same MCID to the IP flows with the same QoS parameters of the same MBS service, and the service flows from different tunnels are sent to the terminal in different logical channels connected by the same air interface. The LCID can also achieve the unique effect of identifying the MBS service, so that the terminal can receive the specified MBS service according to actual needs.

In the same service flow, it is transmitted to the base station through different tunnels, and the base station converts it into a MAC PDU and transmits it to the terminal through different logical channels, so that the terminal can The MAC layer distinguishes whether the PDU contains the MBS service that needs to be received, which simplifies the operation of the terminal. Alternatively, after converting the IP stream into a MAC PDU, the ASN gateway adds an LCID to its packet header, and the base station can uniquely determine the MBS service and transmit the corresponding MAC PDU through the logical channel indicated by the LCID, regardless of the manner of transmission. The terminal of interest can receive the MBS service from the corresponding logical channel.
可以通过三种方式设置 LCID: 直接在 MAC PDU新增 LCID字段; 或在 MAC PDU中设置是否有该 LCID字段的指示,在该指示为包含 LCID字段时, 添力口 LCID, 该方法灵活性较高, 在不需要设置 LCID时, 可以不传输 LCID 字段, 提高了资源的利用率; 或为 MAC PDU新增扩展子头类型, 在新增类型 的扩展子头设置 LCID。  The LCID can be set in three ways: directly add the LCID field in the MAC PDU; or set whether there is an indication of the LCID field in the MAC PDU, and add the LCID when the indication is to include the LCID field. High, when the LCID is not required to be set, the LCID field may not be transmitted, and the resource utilization is improved; or an extended subheader type is added for the MAC PDU, and the LCID is set in the extended subheader of the new type.
基站可以为每个逻辑信道分配独立的物理资源 ,通过所分配的物理资源传 输对应逻辑信道中的 MAC PDU, 并指示终端从 LCID对应的物理资源中获取 所需的 MAC 业务数据包, 使得终端在物理层即能辨别当前接收到的 MAC PDU是否包含自己所需的 MBS业务数据。  The base station may allocate an independent physical resource for each logical channel, transmit the MAC PDU in the corresponding logical channel through the allocated physical resource, and instruct the terminal to obtain the required MAC service data packet from the physical resource corresponding to the LCID, so that the terminal is in the The physical layer can distinguish whether the currently received MAC PDU contains the MBS service data that it needs.
