Description

Data transmission method, network side device and user equipment

Cross-reference to related applications

The present application claims priority to the Chinese Patent Office, filed Jan. 5, 2017, the entire disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference.

Technical field

The present disclosure relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a data transmission method, a network side device, and a user equipment.

Background technique

In the future development of mobile communication systems, in order to better meet the needs of users and greatly improve network capacity and throughput, more transmission nodes will be introduced, that is, ultra-dense networks in the future. In an ultra-dense network, in order to achieve a high transmission rate, high-frequency small station coverage can be adopted. In such a scenario, the high-frequency stations are densely deployed, and the dual-connection or multi-connection technology can be adopted, that is, the UE (User Equipment) obtains data transmission through two or more links.

In the communication system of the related art, the data transmission between the UE and the eNB (evolved Node B, the evolved base station) is usually through a Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP), and a Radio Link Control (RLC). Layer Control Protocol), MAC (Media Access Control) and PHY (Physical Layer) transmission. As shown in FIG. 1, it is a user plane protocol stack in a mobile communication system in the related art. Each layer performs different data processing. PDCP mainly performs security operations and header compression and decompression processing, such as encryption and integrity protection, ROHC (Robust Header Compression) compression and decompression, etc.; RLC mainly completes segmentation and sequential delivery of data and The ARQ (Automatic Repeat Request) data transmission guarantee; the MAC mainly completes the scheduling and the cascade processing of different logical channels and the HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request) operation; the PHY completes the transport block into packets and Air port is sent.

Referring to FIG. 2, in the dual connectivity architecture, user data can be offloaded between different eNBs.

In the related art, each logical channel corresponds to three layers of L2 sub-entities (PDCP, RLC, and MAC). In the case of a single connection, each logical channel has an independent PDCP and RLC layer, and the MAC layer is multiplexed, and the RLC performs direct feedback and retransmission between it and the peer. In the case of a dual-link split bearer, each logical channel has an independent PDCP layer. Each link under the PDCP layer has its own RLC layer, and the RLC layers of each link independently perform their respective Feedback and retransmission.

In the above two technologies, there is no comprehensive processing for the transmission status of two or more links, and there is a lack of cooperation for feedback and retransmission. When a link is deteriorated, it cannot be remedied in time. Reduced network efficiency.

detailed description

Specific embodiments of the present disclosure will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments. The following examples are intended to illustrate the disclosure, but are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure.

First, the network side device architecture involved in the embodiment of the present disclosure will be described.

The network side device in the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a PDCP layer, an RLC-H layer, an RLC-L layer, and a MAC layer, that is, the RLC layer in the related art is divided into an RLC-H (RLC-High) entity and an RLC-L (RLC). -Low) entity, wherein the RLC-H layer is mainly responsible for data delivery and ARQ (Automatic Repeat Request) data transmission guarantee, and the RLC-L layer is mainly responsible for segmentation and cascading of data. Each PDCP layer corresponds to at least one RLC-H layer, each RLC-H layer corresponds to at least one RLC-L layer, each RLC-L layer corresponds to one MAC layer, and each MAC layer corresponds to at least one RLC-L layer. .

Embodiment 1

Referring to FIG. 3, a first embodiment of the present disclosure provides a data transmission method, where the data transmission method is applied to a downlink initial transmission on a network side, where the data transmission method includes:

Step 31: The PDCP layer on the network side processes the received high-level data packet to obtain a PDCP PDU (Protocol Data Unit), and sends the packet to the RLC-H layer on the network side, where each PDCP layer corresponds to at least An RLC-H layer;

Step 32: The RLC-H layer processes the received PDCP PDU to obtain an RLC PDU, and sends the RLC PDU to the RLC-L layer on the network side, where each RLC-H layer corresponds to at least one RLC-L. Floor;

Step 33: The RLC-L layer processes the received RLC PDU to obtain an RLC PDU or an RLC PDU segment, and sends the RLC PDU segment to the MAC layer of the network side, where each RLC-L layer corresponds to one MAC layer, and each a MAC layer corresponding to at least one RLC-L layer;

Step 34: The MAC layer processes the received RLC PDU or RLC PDU segment to obtain a MAC PDU, and sends the message to the UE side.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, preferably, each PDCP layer corresponds to one RLC-H layer, that is, the PDCP layer and the RLC-H layer are in one-to-one correspondence, and there is only one RLC-H on each logical channel.

In an embodiment of the disclosure, preferably, each RLC-H layer corresponds to at least two RLC-L layers, that is, each RLC-H corresponds to at least two legs, so that the RLC-H layer can be on multiple paths. The situation is comprehensively processed. For example, the link quality of multiple paths can be comprehensively considered, and the path with the best link quality can be selected to transmit data to transmit the data as soon as possible. In addition, when the link quality of one of the paths is deteriorated, it is also possible to switch to another path in time to perform remediation, thereby improving the user experience and facilitating the improvement of network efficiency.

The process of data pairing of the PDCP layer, the RLC-H layer, the RLC-L layer, and the MAC layer will be described in detail below.

The PDCP layer is mainly used for security operations and header compression and decompression processing, such as encryption and integrity protection, ROHC (Robust Header Compression) compression and decompression, etc., including:

1) Allocating SNs (Serial Numbers) for PDCP SDUs (Service Data Units), each SDU corresponding to a unique SN, and being allocated in order;

2) according to the configuration, header compression of the data packet;

3) According to the configuration, secure operations on the data packet, including integrity protection and encryption.

The PDCP processes the received high-level data packet to obtain a PCDP SDU, and encapsulates the PDCP SDU to obtain a PDCP PDU (service data unit). Referring to FIG. 4, FIG. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of the PDCP PDU, which can be seen from FIG. The PDCP PDU consists of a PDCP SDU and a PDCP header.

The PDCP layer has a Discard function for the data packet, that is, when the data packet is still not sent after the Discard timer expires, the data packet needs to be deleted, and the timeout packet has been assigned the PDCP SN. After passing through the PDCP layer, even if the SN of the RLC layer is allocated to the RLC layer, the deletion of the data packet will cause a gap in the entire SN sequence, and an additional mechanism is needed for the sender and the receiver to confirm the matter. In order to avoid the introduction of a complex interaction process between the sending and receiving parties for the deletion event, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the following method is adopted to avoid deleting the data packet to which the PDCP SN has been allocated:

Referring to FIG. 5, the step of the PDCP layer on the network side processing the received high-layer data packet to obtain the PDCP PDU and sending the signal to the RLC-H layer on the network side may include:

Cache step 51: The PDCP layer processes the high-level data packet to obtain a PDCP SDU, and stores the PDCP SDU in the cache.

Pre-processing step 52: The PDCP layer obtains a first number of PDCP SDUs from the cache, and processes the first number of PDCP SDUs, including allocating SNs for the first number of PDCP SDUs to obtain PDCPs. PDU;

Sending step 53: the PDCP layer sends the PDCP PDU to the RLC-H layer;

Supplementary step 54: determining whether the second number of MAC PDUs in the MAC PDU corresponding to the first number of PDCP SDUs are sent, if yes, returning to the pre-processing step 52; otherwise, continuing to perform the supplementing step 54.

The function of the supplementary step is that once the packet part of the PDCP processing is sent out, the PDCP processing of the remaining data packets in the buffer is continued in the order of first in first out, so that the data packet that has been PDCP processed can be sufficient. Air interface transmission does not affect the transmission rate.

The buffering step 51 further includes:

The PDCP layer determines whether the PDCP SDU stored in the cache times out, and directly deletes the timeout PDCP SDU stored in the cache when the PDCP SDU stored in the cache times out.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when receiving the high-level data packet, the PDCP layer does not immediately perform the processing of the PDCP layer, but stores the form of a PDCP SDU in the cache, and only stores a small portion of the PDCP stored in the cache. The SDU allocates the SN and sends it to the RLC-H layer. These packets can be quickly transmitted, and then the SNs are allocated to the remaining SDUs in the cache. When a data packet times out, the data packet can be directly deleted from the cache. Since the data packet stored in the cache is not allocated to the SN, the deletion of the data packet will not cause a gap in the entire SN sequence. There is no longer a need for additional mechanisms for both sender and receiver to confirm this.

For example, if the currently received high-level data packets 1-5, the first two SNs may be assigned to the first two, and the SNs are sent according to the schedule, and the remaining three are stored in the cache, if in the process, the third If the data packet times out, it can be deleted directly from the cache. For the fourth data packet, the SN number is 3... so that the SN of the PDCP PDU is continuous, and no Gap (gap) needs to be processed.

The foregoing first quantity may be determined according to current scheduling information and/or transmission status, and specifically, may be determined in the following manner:

1) the first number = N1 × GBR (guaranteed bit rate), where N1 is a positive integer; or

2) the first number = N1 × PBR (priority bit rate), where N1 is a positive integer; or

3) The first number = N1 × M, where N1 is a positive integer and M is the actual amount of data scheduled for each previous TTI (transmission time interval).

The foregoing calculation method can ensure that the first number of data packets processed by the PCDP can satisfy the transmission of the N1 TTIs, and the value of the N1 is determined by the current link quality. If the current link transmission is relatively smooth, the timeout is relatively long. The value of N1 can be larger, and vice versa.

Because the above caching mechanism is adopted, the SN of the PDCP PDU is continuous, and no Gap needs to be processed, so that it can be specified in the standard that once the PDCP SN packet is allocated, deletion is not allowed, and the transmission to the peer end must be continued.

The RLC-H layer is mainly responsible for data delivery and ARQ (Automatic Repeat Request) data transmission guarantee. Specifically, the allocation of the RLC SN is determined by the transmission window. If it is an AM (acknowledgement mode), it is necessary to consider whether the Polling bit is carried, etc., and finally form an RLC PDU.

Generally, the RLC PDU includes one PDCP PDU. Of course, it can also contain several PDCP PDUs. Please refer to Figure 6. When the RLC PDU and the PDCP PDU are in one-to-one correspondence, the RLC may multiplex the PDCP SN.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the RLC-H layer may also perform the foregoing caching mechanism on the data packet, and the deletion of the data packet to which the RLC SN has been allocated is avoided, mainly because when the RLC-H layer has its own independent RLC SN, Equivalent to the RLC SN, the gap is not allowed. In this case, since there are two SNs, that is, the RLC and the PDCP each have an SN, the PDCP PDU is not particularly sensitive to the PDCP layer, that is, the PDCP PDU can be It is discarded. At this time, the PDCP may not buffer the data packet. Once the data packet is received, it is sent to the RLC-H buffer after processing, and a large number of RLC SDUs are buffered by the RLC-H, and a small amount of RLC SDUs are processed. The RLC PDU is obtained and sent to the MAC layer for transmission.

Specifically, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the following method may be used to avoid deleting the data packet to which the RLC SN has been allocated:

Referring to FIG. 7, the step of the RLC-H layer processing the received PDCP PDU to obtain the RLC PDU, and sending the RLC PDU to the RLC-L layer on the network side includes:

Cache step 71: The RLC-H layer processes the received PDCP PDU, obtains an RLC SDU, and stores the RLC SDU in a cache.

Preprocessing step 72: The RLC-H layer acquires a third quantity of RLC SDUs from the cache, and processes the third quantity of RLC SDUs, including allocating SNs for the third number of RLC SDUs , get the RLC PDU;

Sending step 73: the RLC-H layer sends the RLC PDU to the RLC-L layer;

Supplementary step 74: Return to the pre-processing step 72 when a fourth number of MAC PDUs in the MAC PDU corresponding to the third number of RLC SDUs are transmitted.

The function of the supplementary step is that once the data packet part processed by the RLC layer is sent out, the RLC layer processing is continued on the remaining data packets in the cache in the order of first in first out, to ensure that the data packet processed by the RLC layer is processed. It can be enough for air to send without affecting the sending rate.

The buffering step 71 further includes:

The RLC-H layer determines whether the RLC SDU stored in the cache times out, and directly deletes the timeout RLC SDU stored in the cache when the RLC SDU stored in the cache times out.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when receiving the PDCP PDU, the RLC-H layer does not immediately perform RLC layer processing, but stores it in the cache in the form of RLC SDU, which is only a small part of the data packet stored in the cache. Perform RLC layer processing, allocate SN for the small part of the data packet, and send it to the RLC-L layer, the data can be quickly transmitted, and then, in order, the RLC layer is performed on the remaining data packets in the cache. deal with. When a data packet times out, the data packet can be directly deleted from the cache. Since the data packet stored in the cache is not allocated to the SN, the deletion of the data packet will not cause a gap in the entire SN sequence. There is no longer a need for additional mechanisms for both sender and receiver to confirm this.

The foregoing third quantity may be determined according to current scheduling information and/or transmission status, and specifically, may be determined in the following manner:

1) a third number = N2 x GBR, where N2 is a positive integer; or

2) the third number = N2 × PBR, where N2 is a positive integer; or

3) The third number = N2 x M, where N2 is a positive integer and M is the actual amount of data scheduled for each previous TTI.

The foregoing calculation method can ensure that the third number of data packets processed by the RLC can satisfy the transmission of N2 TTIs, and the value of N2 is determined by the current link quality. If the current link transmission is relatively smooth, the timeout is relatively long, N2 The value can be larger, and vice versa.

Because the above caching mechanism is adopted, the SN of the RLC PDU is continuous, and no Gap needs to be processed. Therefore, it can be specified in the standard that once the data packet of the RLC SN is allocated, deletion is not allowed, and the peer must continue to be performed. transmission.

When each RLC-H layer corresponds to at least two RLC-L layers, the RLC-H layer has a certain routing mechanism for the path of the data to be sent, and the following sending methods may be used to select which RLC PDU to send to. RLC-L:

(1) Bearer separation and transmission

The bearer split transmission means that the RLC-H layer splits the RLC PDU and sends the split RLC PDU to at least two RLC-L layers.

For example, the RLC-H layer corresponds to two RLC-L layers, that is, the logical channel corresponding to the RLC-H corresponds to two data delivery paths, and when the two paths have equal rates, the data packets 0 and 2 can be , 4, 6, 8, ... are sent to a path to send

packets

1, 3, 5, 7, 9, ... to another path. If the two path rates are relatively large, the transmission and load conditions of the two paths can be considered. In combination with the feedback of the flow control mechanism, the data packets are sent and sent off to ensure that the data can be sent to the peer end as soon as possible.

The main feature of the bearer separation transmission mode is that multiple links are transmitted simultaneously, and different data is transmitted.

(2) Copy and send

The so-called duplicate transmission means that the RLC-H layer copies the RLC PDU and sends the copied RLC PDU to at least two RLC-L layers.

The copy transmission mode is mainly for some important data, or data with high reliability and delay requirements, which can be transmitted simultaneously on two or more links after being copied.

The main feature of the copy transmission mode is that multiple links are transmitted simultaneously, and the same data is transmitted.

(3) Selective transmission

The selective transmission means that the RLC-H layer selects one link from at least two links and sends the RLC PDU to the RLC-L layer corresponding to the selected link.

Specifically, the RLC-H layer may select one of the best link quality transmissions according to the link quality of at least two links.

The main feature of the selective transmission method is that most of the time is to select one of the links to transmit.

The RLC-L layer is primarily responsible for the segmentation cascading of data.

Preferably, the step of the RLC-L layer processing the received RLC PDU to obtain the RLC PDU or the RLC PDU segment and sending the packet to the MAC layer of the network side includes:

The RLC-L layer stores the received RLC PDU in a cache;

Specifically, when the transmission timing of the MAC layer is reached, the RLC-L layer performs appropriate concatenation and segmentation on the RLC PDU according to the resource size scheduled by the MAC layer, and sends the RLC PDU to the MAC layer.

The MAC layer mainly performs scheduling and cascading processing and HARQ operations of different logical channels.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, each MAC layer may correspond to multiple RLC-L layers. When there are multiple logical channels, data of different logical channels may be multiplexed at the MAC layer, that is, multiple RLC PDUs of different logical channels or RLC PDU segments can be multiplexed into one MAC PDU.

The above data transmission method of the present disclosure can be applied to various types of wireless transmission networks, and the following examples are explained:

1) The data transmission method may be applied to a wireless transmission network of a CU-DU (Centralized Unit-Distributed Unit) architecture, in which case the PDCP layer and the RLC-H layer are located in a CU; the RLC- The L layer and the MAC layer are located in the DU;

2) The data transmission method may be applied to a wireless transmission network of an NR dual connectivity or multi-connection architecture, where the PDCP layer and the RLC-H layer are located in the MeNB;

3) The data transmission method can be applied to a wireless transmission network of an NR (New Radio)-LTE interworking architecture, and the PDCP layer and the RLC-H layer are located in the NR MeNB.

That is to say, the data transmission method of the embodiment of the present disclosure can be implemented inside the 5G system, and across system contents.

The UE side device architecture involved in the embodiment of the present disclosure is described below.

The UE side device includes a PDCP layer, an RLC layer, and a MAC layer, where each PDCP layer corresponds to at least one RLC layer, and each RLC layer corresponds to multiple MAC layers.

Embodiment 2

Referring to FIG. 8 , a second embodiment of the present disclosure provides a data transmission method, where the data transmission method is applied to downlink reception on a UE side, where the data transmission method includes:

Step 81: The MAC layer on the UE side processes the received MAC PDU, and obtains the RLC PDU or the RLC PDU segment, and sends the RLC PDU segment to the corresponding RLC layer, where each RLC layer corresponds to multiple MAC layers;

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the MAC layer does not distinguish between the RLC PDU or the RLC PDU segment, and performs the same processing, and the MAC layer may obtain the logical channel ID in the RLC PDU or the RLC PDU segment according to the The logical channel ID in the RLC PDU or RLC PDU segment determines the RLC layer to which the RLC PDU or RLC PDU segment belongs.

Step 82: The RLC layer performs comprehensive processing on the received RLC PDU or RLC PDU segment sent by different MAC layers to obtain a complete RLC PDU, and obtains a PDCP PDU from the complete RLC PDU, and sends the PDCP PDU to the RLC PDU. a PDCP layer on the UE side, where each RLC layer corresponds to a PDCP layer, and each PDCP layer corresponds to at least one RLC layer;

Specifically, when the RLC PDU segment is received, the segmentation is performed according to the segmented SN, and the complete RLC PDU is formed according to the segmentation information.

When the PDCP PDU is sent to the PDCP layer, even if the PDCP PDU is received out of order, it can still be sent.

Step 83: The PDCP layer processes the received PDCP PDU to obtain a PDCP SDU, and delivers the PDCP SDU to the upper layer of the UE side.

Specifically, the PDCP layer performs decryption, decompression, and reordering processing on the received PDCP PDU, and after the PDCP SDU is solved from the sequenced data packet, the PDCP SDU is delivered to the upper layer.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, since each RLC layer corresponds to multiple MAC layers, the RLC layer may perform comprehensive processing from data on multiple paths, such as receiving ordering, reassembly, and state feedback, thereby improving network efficiency.

Preferably, the step of synthesizing the received RLC PDU or RLC PDU segment by the RLC layer comprises: the RLC layer sorting the received RLC PDU or RLC PDU segment sent by different MAC layers, according to the ordering As a result, it is determined whether there is a packet loss. When there is a packet loss, the packet loss status report is sent to the RLC-H layer on the network side.

The one-to-one correspondence between the RLC layer on the UE side and the RLC-H layer on the network side corresponds to the same logical channel, and the ARQ (Automatic Repeat Request) related function is processed.

After receiving the retransmission packet sent by the network side, the UE side may return an acknowledgement (ACK) as needed, and a successful feedback and retransmission process ends.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the RLC layer combines the receiving conditions on multiple links to jointly generate feedback and packet loss status reports, thereby improving network efficiency.

Embodiment 3

Referring to FIG. 9 , a third embodiment of the present disclosure provides a data transmission method, where the data transmission method is applied to downlink retransmission on the network side, where the data transmission method includes:

Step 91: When receiving the packet loss status report fed back by the RLC layer on the UE side, the RLC-H layer determines the RLC PDU or RLC PDU segment that needs to be retransmitted in the packet loss status report, and obtains the RLC that needs to be retransmitted. Segment the PDU or RLC PDU and send it to the RLC-L layer;

Step 92: The RLC-L layer sends the received RLC PDU or RLC PDU segment that needs to be retransmitted to the MAC layer.

Step 93: The MAC layer processes the received RLC PDU or RLC PDU segment that needs to be retransmitted, obtains a MAC PDU, and sends the message to the UE side.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the RLC PDU segment needs to be retransmitted, only the specified RLC PDU segment may be transmitted, and the RLC-H layer includes the segmentation information of the retransmission packet specified in the packet loss state to form a corresponding RLC PDU segmentation.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, preferably, the interface information of the RLC PDU or the RLC PDU segment to be retransmitted and/or the RLC-H layer and the RLC-L layer is included in the interface information for indicating the current RLC PDU or the RLC PDU. The segment is the tag of the retransmission packet.

For example, in the head of the RLC PDU, there is a 1-bit field, which can be represented as initial transmission by setting the 1-bit field to 0, and 1 as retransmission, and vice versa. Alternatively, the label of the retransmission packet may be carried in the interface information of the RLC-H layer and the RLC-L layer, for example, carried in the header of the GTP-U, or may be 1 bit, one value represents the initial transmission packet, and another value Represents a retransmission package.

Because the general retransmission packet has a higher priority, it may be sent first with the initial transmission packet. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, when each RLC-H layer corresponds to multiple RLC-L layers, preferably, the In step 91, the RLC-H layer acquires the RLC PDU or the RLC PDU segment that needs to be retransmitted, and sends the RLC PDU segment to the RLC-L layer, where the RLC-H layer selects one link status from the at least two links. A link that is superior to other links and sends the RLC PDU to the RLC-L layer corresponding to the selected link. That is, when retransmitting, according to the real-time situation of the current multiple links, the path with the best link condition is selected for transmission, and the path selection of the initial transmission is not considered. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the initial transmission and the retransmission path are selected. Independent process.

When the retransmission packet reaches the RLC-L layer, it can be preferentially transmitted because it has a higher priority. That is, in the foregoing step 92, the step of the RLC-L layer transmitting the received RLC PDU or the RLC PDU that needs to be retransmitted to the corresponding MAC layer of the network side includes: the RLC-L When receiving the RLC PDU or RLC PDU segment that needs to be retransmitted, the layer preferentially sends the RLC PDU or RLC PDU segment that needs to be retransmitted to the MAC layer. The RLC-L layer identifies the retransmission packet based on the tag of the retransmission packet.

Step 122: The MAC layer processes the received RLC PDU or RLC PDU segment that needs to be retransmitted, obtains a MAC PDU, and sends the MAC PDU to the network side.

Since each RLC layer corresponds to multiple MAC layers, the RLC layer can perform comprehensive processing on the packet loss status on multiple paths, thereby improving network efficiency.

Preferably, the RLC layer acquires an RLC PDU or an RLC PDU segment that needs to be retransmitted, and sends the RLC PDU segment to the MAC layer, where the RLC layer acquires a link of the latest uplink resource, and needs to retransmit the RLC PDU. Or the RLC PDU segment is sent to the MAC layer corresponding to the link of the latest uplink resource to ensure retransmission delay.

The uplink transmission needs to be scheduled, and has a certain delay. For example, the uplink resource is obtained at time t, which is generally used after 4 subframes, that is, t+4. If one of the two paths has obtained the uplink resource, 4 subframes can be used later, and the other has no resources, the first path has the latest uplink resource. If two paths are used, the first uplink resource can be used after 2 subframes, and the second path can be used after 3 subframes (meaning that both are waiting for different durations after receiving the uplink resource), then obviously Still the first path has the most recent upstream resource.

Of course, in some other embodiments of the present disclosure, a path with higher reliability, such as a path with a lower average block error rate or a better link quality, and a RLC PDU or RLC PDU that needs to be retransmitted may also be selected. segment.
