Description
WO 01/08426 PCT/SEOO/01399 -1 MULTIPLEXING OF REAL TIME USERS AND NON-PRIORITY USERS ON AN EGPRS CHANNEL BACKGROUND 5 The present invention relates generally to radiocommunication systems and, more particularly, to techniques and structures for the efficient use of silent periods in speech communication. The growth of commercial communication systems and, in particular, the explosive growth of cellular radiotelephone systems worldwide, has compelled system 10 designers to search for ways to increase system capacity and flexibility without reducing communication quality beyond consumer tolerance thresholds. Mobile calls for example, may be routed in a circuit switched fashion, a packet switched fashion, or some hybrid thereof. It has become increasingly desirable to couple and to integrate mobile cellular telephone networks, for instance a GSM network, to Internet protocol 15 (IP) networks for call routing purposes. The routing of voice calls over IP networks is frequently termed "voice over IP" or, more succinctly, VoIP. Packet-switched technology, which may be connection-oriented (e.g., X.25) or "connectionless" as in IP, does not require the set-up and tear-down of a physical connection, which is in marked contrast to circuit-switched technology. This reduces 20 the data latency and increases the efficiency of a channel in handling relatively short, bursty, or interactive transactions. A connectionless packet-switched network distributes the routing functions to multiple routing sites, thereby avoiding possible traffic bottlenecks that could occur when using a central switching hub. Data is "packetized" with the appropriate end-system addressing and then transmitted in 25 independent units along the data path. Intermediate systems, sometimes called "routers," stationed between the communicating end-systems make decisions about the most appropriate route to take on a per packet basis. Routing decisions are based on a number of characteristics, including: least-cost route or cost metric; capacity of the link; number of packets waiting for transmission; security requirements for the link; 30 and intermediate system (node) operational status.
WO 01/08426 PCT/SEOO/01399 -2 FIG. 1 shows representative architecture used for communicating across an air link that comprises the packet data protocols which provide connectivity between a mobile end system (e.g., a mobile station), a mobile data base station (MDBS), and a mobile data intermediate system (MD-IS). An exemplary description of the elements in 5 FIG. 1 and an approach for each element when considering alternative RF technologies follows. The Internet Protocol/Connectionless Network Protocol (IP/CLNP) are network protocols that are connectionless and widely supported throughout the traditional data network community. These protocols are independent of the physical layer and 10 preferably are not modified as the RF technologies change. The Security Management Protocol (SMP) provides security services across the air link interface. The services furnished include data link confidentiality, M-ES authentication, key management, access control, and algorithm upgradability/replacement. The SMP should remain unchanged when implementing 15 alternative RF technologies. The Radio Resource Management Protocol (RRMP) provides management and control over the mobile unit's use of the RF resources. The RRMP and its associated procedures are specific to the AMPS RF infrastructure and require change based on the RF technology implemented. 20 The Mobile Network Registration Protocol (MNRP) is used in tandem with a Mobile Network Location Protocol (MNLP) to allow proper registration and authentication of the mobile end system. The MNRP should be unchanged when using alternative RF technologies. The Mobile Data Link Protocol (MDLP) provides efficient data transfer 25 between the MD-IS and the M-ES. The MDLP supports efficient mobile system movement, mobile system power conservation, RF channel resources sharing, and efficient error recovery. The MDLP should be unchanged when using alternative RF technologies.
WO 01/08426 PCT/SEOO/01399 -3 The Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol and associated procedures control the methodology M-ESs used to manage shared access to the RF channel. This protocol and its functionality is supplied by alternative RF technologies. With the introduction of new services or applications over packet data systems, 5 for example, real time (RT) services such as VoIP, there will be a large variety of Quality of Service (QoS) demands on the network. Certain users, for example, those utilizing real time voice applications will have a very high demand for the availability of transmission resources, whereas users, for example, who transmit short messages or electronic mail, will be satisfied with a lower availability of transmission resources. 10 For example, in the well known Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS), there are four proposed QoS classes: the conversational class; streaming class; interactive class; and background class. The main distinguishing factor between these classes is the sensitivity to delay of the traffic. Conversational class traffic is intended for traffic which is very delay sensitive while background class traffic is the 15 most delay insensitive traffic class. Conversational and streaming classes are intended to be used to carry RT traffic flows and interactive and background classes are intended to be used to carry Internet applications (e.g., WWW, E-mail, Telnet, FTP, etc.). Real time services include sensitive time constraints over a reserved access channel. That is, delays in the transmission and/or receipt of successive packets can 20 have noticeable and undesirable QoS effects (e.g., on voice quality). These time constraints can be handled by always reserving access time at predetermined intervals during a communication with high QoS demands. In this way, a real time service communication can proceed uninterrupted since it will be allocated communication resources regardless of whether or not any packets will be sent. That is, for example, 25 silent periods will occur in a real time voice communication, and in order to conserve battery resources, the silent periods need not be transmitted. Silent periods can be detected in a Voice Activity Detector (VAD) device. During silent periods, a Silence Descriptor (SID) is sent to a receiver. The SID informs the receiver that a silent period has begun. In addition, the SID indicates the 30 type of "comfort noise" which is to be generated at the receiver. The receiver WO 01/08426 PCT/SEOO/01399 -4 generates comfort noise in order to closely mimic the naturally occurring background noise so that the receiving user perceives that the communication path between the transmitter and the receiver is still open and operable. In addition to the SID, an indication is sent to the transmitter that there is no voice activity detected and the 5 transmitter can reduce its transmitter output power or set it to zero for that connection. This technique is called Discontinuous Transmission (DTX). With DTX enabled, interference is decreased in the system, since transmitters will only emit output power when there is information to be transmitted (e.g., when voice activity is detected). However, since resources are allocated for the real time services users 10 regardless of whether or not packets are sent from the transmitter, it would be advantageous if these silent periods could be used in a more efficient way by allowing other applications to use the allocated resources during the silent periods without lowering the QoS of real time services. 15 SUMMARY The present invention overcomes the above-identified deficiencies in the art by providing a method and system for multiplexing real time services (e.g., speech communication) and non-priority or less time-critical services (e.g., short message service and/or electronic mail service) once a silent period is detected in a real time 20 communication. Furthermore, the present invention aborts these other services once the real time communication has become active again after the silent period. According to a first aspect of the present invention, provided is a method of allocating communication resources. The method includes the steps of dedicating a communication resource for use by a real time application; monitoring usage of the 25 resource by the real time application; and allocating the resource for use by a non priority application when the resource is not being used by the real time application. According to a further aspect of the present invention, provided is a system for allocating communication resources. The system includes a device that monitors an activity status of a first application and transmits a status signal, and a switch coupled 30 to a transmitter and responsive to the status signal. The switch couples the first WO 01/08426 PCT/SEOO/01399 -5 application to the transmitter if the status signal indicates that the first application is active, and the switch couples the second application to the transmitter if the status signal indicates that the first application is not active. According to a further aspect of the present invention, provided is a system for 5 allocating communication resources. The system includes a first module dedicating a communication resource for use by a real time application; a second module monitoring usage of the resource by the real time application; and a third module allocating the resource for use by a non-priority application when the resource is not being used by the real time application. 10 BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The above features of the present invention will be more apparent from the following description of the preferred embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein: 15 FIG. 1 illustrates a protocol architecture for communicating across an air link; FIG. 2 illustrates an exemplary embodiment of the present invention; FIG. 3A is a flow chart illustrating an exemplary scheduling technique for the downlink of the present invention; FIG. 3B is a flow chart illustrating an exemplary scheduling technique for the 20 uplink of the present invention; and FIG. 4 illustrates an allocation of blocks in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION 25 In the following description, for purposes of explanation and not limitation, specific details are set forth, such as particular circuits, circuit components, techniques, etc. in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced in other embodiments that depart from these specific details. In other instances, detailed WO 01/08426 PCT/SEOO/01399 -6 descriptions of well-known methods, devices, and circuits are omitted so as not to obscure the description of the present invention. The exemplary radio communication systems discussed herein are described as using the time division multiple access (TDMA) protocol, in which communication 5 between the base station and the mobile terminals is performed over a number of timeslots. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the concepts disclosed herein find use in other protocols, including, but not limited to, frequency division multiple access (FDMA), code division multiple access (CDMA), time division duplex (TDD), or some hybrid of any of the above protocols. 10 FIG. 2 illustrates an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. A communication system 200 includes a base station 202 and a plurality of communication devices 204, 206. Communication device 206 includes a transceiver 211, a speech codec 213, and a module 207 that performs VAD, SID, and DTX functions. Communication device 204 includes a transceiver 205 and a non-priority 15 (NP) application 215 (e.g., short message service or electronic mail service). Thus, in this example, device 206 is an RT device and device 204 is an NP device. The base station 202 includes a transceiver 214 which is connected to a multiplexing device 212. The multiplexing device 212 selectively connects a speech codec 208, or other real time (RT) application, and an NP application 210 to the 20 transceiver 214. Though only one NP application is shown in FIG. 2, multiple NP applications can be provided and selectively connected to multiplexing device 212 for selective access to transmit or receive resources in the base station. As shown, the speech codec 208 includes a module 209 that performs VAD, SID, and DTX functions. In the general case (i.e., either uplink or downlink), when 25 the VAD detects the presence of speech, the multiplexing device 212 connects the speech codec to the transceiver 214. However, when the VAD detects a silent period, the multiplexing device 212 connects the NP application 210 to the transceiver 214. Thus, the multiplexing device 212 allows NP applications to access the same transmission resource (e.g., blocks) used by the real time (RT) application(s). Since at 30 least some resources are typically reserved for the RT application(s) when an RT WO 01/08426 PCT/SEOO/01399 -7 application is operating, the present invention increases overall system capacity by making it possible for an NP application to "steal" back the reserved RT resource during times when there is no speech activity. The scheduling of different applications in the downlink is performed in the 5 Radio Link Control (RLC) or MAC layer of the network. FIG. 3A is a flow chart illustrating an exemplary scheduling technique for the downlink (DL) of the present invention. During silent periods, since the silent speech blocks are not being transmitted to the RT device 206, comfort noise can be generated at the RT device 206 during the periods when the allocated transmission resource is being used by NP 10 applications. In addition, during silent periods, further DL blocks containing a SID may be transmitted periodically (e.g., every 480 milliseconds (ms)) so that the parameters used to generate the comfort noise can be updated. The VAD in the speech codec 208 examines each RT speech block produced by the RT application. If, in step 320, the VAD detects speech in the speech block, the 15 DL block is scheduled for the RT application in step 322 and the multiplexing device 212 connects the speech codec 208 to the transceiver. If the VAD detects a silent speech block, a first DL block containing a SID is transmitted to the RT device 206. In step 323, the SID is used to create (or update) the parameters used to generate comfort noise. In step 324, the next DL block is scheduled for the NP application and the 20 multiplexing device 212 connects the NP application 210 to the transceiver 214. While a communication device is transmitting RT uplink (UL) blocks to base station 202 that contain speech, the communication system schedules the RT device 206 to transmit its UL blocks continuously. When the RT device 206 detects a silent period for the next UL block, the RT device 206 sends a first UL block containing a SID 25 which informs the communication system that the RT device 206 is entering a silent period. During silent periods, further UL blocks containing a SID may be transmitted periodically (e.g., every 480 milliseconds (ms)) so that the parameters used to generate the comfort noise can be updated. During the silent periods, an NP application(s) can be allocated UL resources (e.g., NP device 204) however, the RT application from the 30 RT device 206 will still be allocated a resource periodically so that the communication WO 01/08426 PCT/SEOO/01399 -8 system can determine when the RT application wishes to resume sending UL blocks. By permitting the NP application of NP device 204 to use the UL resource assigned to RT application of RT device 206, during periods of inactivity, the RT application may experience a loss of data or delay in reacquiring its UL resource after the period of 5 inactivity ends. In order to balance the effect of the delay on QoS, the frequency of UL block allocation to the NP application(s) should be set to a value that provides the desired tradeoff (loss and/or delay) of UL blocks for the RT application and additional throughput for the NP application(s). An example of the above technique will now be described with reference to 10 FIG. 3B. On the UL, the communication system receives an UL block from a RT device 206. At step 332, the communication system determines if the UL block from the communication device 206 includes a SID. If speech is detected instead of a SID, then the next UL block is scheduled for the RT user in step 336. If, however, a SID is detected, then in step 334 in this example, the next three UL blocks are scheduled as 15 follows: (1) the first UL block is scheduled for the NP application; (2) the second UL block is scheduled for the RT application; and (3) the third UL block is scheduled for the NP application. By interleaving the scheduling of the NP and RT UL blocks, the RT application can be quickly resumed if it has speech blocks to transmit. One skilled in the art will recognize that the specific interleaving pattern can be varied based on the 20 desired effect on the QoS of the system. For example, at a periodicity of N blocks, one block is scheduled for RT and N - 1 blocks are scheduled for NP. If the spacing of the scheduled UL RT blocks is kept small (e.g., within two blocks or 20 ms), then the RT application should not suffer a noticeable loss of speech. However, other RT applications may have a higher tolerance to the loss of blocks prior to resuming 25 communications, which allows for greater spacing between the scheduled UL RT blocks (e.g., three blocks or more). In step 338, during the scheduled UL RT block, the communication system checks to see if an UL RT block has been sent. If an UL RT block has been sent, the communication system checks to see if the block contains speech or a SID. If it 30 contains speech, then the next unscheduled UL block is scheduled for the RT WO 01/08426 PCT/SEOO/01399 -9 application in step 336. If, in step 340, the UL RT block contains a SID, the comfort noise parameters are updated at the communication system and the next three UL blocks are scheduled according to step 334. If no UL RT block was sent to the communication system, the next three UL blocks are also scheduled according to step 5 334. FIG. 4 illustrates an allocation of blocks in the exemplary embodiment of the present invention as described above with respect to FIG. 3B. The DL frame from the communication system, the UL frame from a communication device using an RT application, and the UL frame from a communication device using an NP application 10 are shown. Each block in the DL frame includes a Uplink State Flag field (USF) 352, 360 and a Temporary Flow Identifier field (TFI) 354. The USF field informs the communication devices of the allocation for the next UL block. For example, if a DL block 350 includes a USF which has the value RT (see USF 352), then the communication device running the RT application is alerted that it has been scheduled 15 to transmit an RT block 362 on the next available UL opportunity. If, however, the USF has a value of NP (see DL block 358, USF 360), then the communication device using the NP application is alerted that is has been scheduled to transmit an NP block 374 on the next available UL opportunity. The TFI 354 is used to indicate an intended recipient of the payload 356 (e.g., speech data) of the DL block 350, 358. The UL 20 blocks also include a TFI field which indicate the identity of the sender (e.g., TFI 364 for RT applications and TFI 376 for NP applications). UL RT block 370 includes a SID 368 message indicating the beginning of a silent period. Blocks 372 and 380 represent unused blocks by the RT communication device during a scheduled time. The communication system is alerted to the 25 resumption of RT communication by the RT communication device by receiving block 382 in its scheduled timeslot. Normal RT communication is then resumed after the last scheduled UL NP block 375 with UL RT block 384. In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, if RT communication wishes to resume during a scheduled NP application, the un-sent blocks can be stored 30 in the communication device and transmitted at the next scheduled opportunity. This WO 01/08426 PCT/SEOO/01399 -10 technique will introduce a delay proportional to the number of un-sent blocks stored in the communication device. The foregoing has described the principles, preferred embodiments and modes of operation of the present invention. However, the invention should not be construed 5 as being limited to the particular embodiments discussed above. While the above described embodiments were provided using TDMA, one skilled in the art will appreciate that the present invention may be practiced in any of a number of different protocols such as CDMA, FDMA, TDD, etc. Thus, the above-described embodiments should be regarded as illustrative rather than restrictive, and it should be appreciated 10 that variations may be made in those embodiments by workers skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the present invention as defined by the following claims.
