Description

Method and system for balancing physical downlink control channel distribution
Technical Field
The present invention relates to wireless communication technologies, and in particular, to a method and a system for balancing physical downlink control channel distribution.
Background
The downlink direction of LTE adopts Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), wherein 1 radio frame of LTE includes 10 subframes (subframes) and 20 slots (slots), each downlink slot is divided into a plurality of OFDM symbols, and the number of included OFDM symbols is different according to the length of CP. When the normal CP is used, one downlink slot contains 7 OFDM symbols; when the extended CP is used, one downlink slot contains 6 OFDM symbols. In this time-frequency Resource block, one Resource Element (RE) is a Resource defined by one symbol and one subcarrier, and one Resource Block (RB) is a time-frequency Resource occupied by 12 subcarriers and one downlink slot. The frame structure and the resource block definitions included in LTE may vary differently according to different scenarios and configurations.
The LTE system usually maps different physical channels to corresponding resources in each subframe, a cell reference signal CRS is placed first in the resource mapping, then a physical format indicator channel PCFICH is placed, the terminal system can obtain the number of time domain symbols occupied by a control region in the subframe through decoding the PCFICH, generally, the base station system will configure 1-3 symbols as the control region, and the remaining symbols of the subframe will be used as a data carrying region for carrying a physical downlink shared channel PDSCH. And the base station continuously places a physical HARQ indicator channel PHICH in the control region, and after the resource mapping is completed, the rest unused resources in the control region are extracted and numbered again to be used as candidate resources of a physical downlink control channel PDCCH.
In the LTE system, in order to configure PDCCH and other downlink Control channels effectively, two dedicated Control Channel resource units, resource Element groups (REGs, RE groups) and Control Channel Elements (CCEs) are defined; wherein, one REG consists of four adjacent 4 subcarriers in the frequency domain, one CCE consists of several REGs, one PDCCH consists of several CCEs, there are several different PDCCH format choices, and the parameters of PDCCH formats 0-3 are listed in table 1.
PDCCH format Number of CCEs involved Number of included REGs Included PDCCH bits

1 2 18 144

TABLE 1
In the LTE system, in order to adapt to different transmission environments and requirements, a plurality of DCI formats are designed to configure a suitable transmission scheme for a corresponding UE, and transmission parameters selected for the UE, such as resource allocation, modulation/coding scheme selection, and the like of the UE, are explicitly or implicitly included in DCI information. Under different transmission modes and bandwidths, the DCI has different bit numbers, the LTE system selects a PDCCH format which can meet the transmission quality according to the number and the corresponding channel condition of the UE, performs channel coding on corresponding DCI information to generate coded data corresponding to the selected format, and one piece of DCI information corresponds to one piece of PDCCH data. The mapping of PDCCH data to physical resources specifically includes: firstly, the residual RE resources of the control area are extracted and combined into N in sequenceCCEA number of CCEs; secondly, a search space is defined on the search space, the search space is the CCE position of the PDCCH of the terminal, a plurality of PDCCH candidates can be corresponding to one search space, wherein, the CCE corresponding to the mth PDCCH on the search space is

Where i is 0, … L-1, L is the number of CCEs corresponding to the selected PDCCH format, i.e. aggregation level, Yk=(A·Yk-1)mod D,Y-1=nRNTI≠0,A=39827,D=65537,nsIs a slot number within a 10ms radio frame. The RNTI is used for distinguishing information carried on the PDCCH, each terminal is allocated with a unique C-RNTI in the access process, when the terminal detects an RNTI value matched with the terminal, the terminal knows that the information belongs to the terminal, and the mapping positions are different when the two types of information are mapped. If it is common signaling, then mapping to a common search space by taking Yk0; if the signaling is the signaling of the terminal, mapping the signaling to the search space of each terminal according to the original formula. Wherein the C-RNTI values range from 0001-003C, and 003D-FFF 3.
When detecting the PDCCH information, the terminal needs to try all possible PDCCH positions and DCI bearer information, and when the decoded data meets its own CRC check rule, it considers that the correct configuration information is obtained. The search space of each terminal includes a dedicated search space and a common search space, wherein there may be an overlap between the dedicated search space and the common search space, and thus there may be a possibility of PDCCH resource collision, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of resource collision between the search spaces of each terminal, as shown in fig. 1, where terminal 1 is a search space with a degree of aggregation of 4, terminal 2 is a search space with a degree of aggregation of 8, and terminal 3 is a search space with a degree of aggregation of 1. In this case, regardless of the selection of the terminal 2, collision occurs with the terminal 1 or the terminal 3.
The base station avoids the mutual collision between the resources of the terminals as much as possible through scheduling. However, as the number of UEs increases, the MIMO technology supporting high-capacity transmission and the deployment of heterogeneous networks, the downlink control information to be transmitted increases increasingly, and thus the problem of the capacity limitation of the PDCCH becomes increasingly obvious. In the prior art, pseudo-random positions calculated based on the RNTI should be subject to average distribution in the statistical average sense, but in practical situations, there may be a problem that the utilization degree of the uncontrolled area is unbalanced, that is, for a certain group of determined terminals, the terminal search space calculated via the RNTI is distributed in a certain part of the controlled area more intensively, so that the collision probability is higher, and meanwhile, an idle area with a lower utilization degree exists in the controlled area, so that the overall performance of the system is not exerted to the utmost. Fig. 2 is a diagram illustrating PDCCH resource distribution in the prior art, and as shown in fig. 2, the PDCCHs of terminal 5 and terminal 6 cannot be transmitted due to insufficient resources, while there are available idle resources elsewhere.
As described above, in the prior art, as the number of downlink control information to be transmitted increases and the PDCCH is unevenly distributed on the system resources, PDCCH resource collision is likely to occur in each terminal.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
FIG. 3 is a flow chart of a method of balancing PDCCH distribution in the present invention; as described in relation to figure 3 of the drawings,
301, a base station selects idle C-RNTIs in sequence, respectively calculates search spaces corresponding to each C-RNTI, if the resource utilization rate of a CCE occupied by a certain search space is less than a specified value, puts the C-RNTI in a list to be increased, and selects one or more C-RNTIs from the list to be increased to send the C-RNTIs to a terminal;
step 302, after receiving and storing the C-RNTI sent by the base station, the terminal sends a confirmation message to the base station;
step 303, the base station receives a confirmation message sent by the terminal, locally updates the search space corresponding to the terminal, and selects a PDCCH channel to send PDCCH data corresponding to the terminal in all the search spaces corresponding to the terminal;
and step 304, the terminal searches corresponding PDCCH data on the search spaces corresponding to the plurality of stored C-RNTIs.
Figure 4 is a flow chart of adding C-RNTI in one embodiment of the invention; as shown in figure 4 of the drawings,
in step 401, the base station finds one or more idle C-RNTIs.
In step 401, the base station respectively calculates a search space corresponding to each C-RNTI by sequentially selecting idle C-RNTIs; and comparing the resource utilization rates of the CCEs corresponding to the search spaces obtained by calculation, if the resource utilization rate of the CCE occupied by a certain search space is smaller than a specified value, wherein the specified value is the average value of the resource utilization rates of all the CCEs, putting the C-RNTIs into a list to be increased, and selecting one or more C-RNTIs from the list to be increased to send the C-RNTIs to the terminal. In other embodiments of the present invention, comparing the CCE corresponding to each search space obtained by the calculation, and if the probability of PDCCH resource collision on the CCE is low, sending the C-RNTI corresponding to the search space to the terminal; the probability of PDCCH resource collision can be compared by the coincidence degree of the search spaces of the terminals, and if CCE1 is in the search space corresponding to 3 terminals and CCE2 is in the search space corresponding to 5 terminals, the probability of PDCCH resource collision of CCE1 can be considered to be higher than the probability of PDCCH resource collision of CCE 2.
Step 402, the base station sends C-RNTI increasing information to the target terminal through a high-level signaling; the message carries one or more C-RNTIs acquired by the base station in step 401.
In step 402, the base station sends a C-RNTI increasing message to the target terminal through a high-level signaling specifically as follows: a terminal sends an RRC connection reconfiguration signaling to a base station, wherein the RRC connection reconfiguration signaling carries a C-RNTI increasing message which comprises one or more corresponding C-RNTIs; and the C-RNTI reconfiguration message carried in the RRC connection reconfiguration signaling also comprises one or more corresponding C-RNTIs.
In other embodiments of the present invention, the probability of PDCCH resource collision occurring on the search space corresponding to the C-RNTI of the found target terminal is higher than the average value, and the average value is defined in the same step 401.
Step 403, the terminal receives the C-RNTI increasing message sent by the base station, parses one or more corresponding C-RNTIs from the message, and sends a confirmation message to the base station. The terminal stores the one or more analyzed C-RNTIs, so that the terminal can search corresponding PDCCH resources in a search space corresponding to the one or more added C-RNTIs and can also search corresponding PDCCH resources in a search space corresponding to the original one or more C-RNTIs.
Step 404, the base station receives the confirmation message sent by the terminal, and updates the search space of the terminal.
Step 405, the base station selects a PDCCH channel on the updated search space to transmit PDCCH data corresponding to the terminal. In step 405, the base station sends PDCCH data according to all search spaces corresponding to all C-RNTIs carried by the terminal
Step 406, the terminal searches the corresponding PDCCH data in the updated search space; and if the updated terminal may have one or more C-RNTIs, the terminal searches for corresponding PDCCH data in all search spaces corresponding to the one or more C-RNTIs.
In step 402 shown in fig. 4, the base station transmits the corresponding one or more C-RNTIs to the terminal through higher layer signaling. Fig. 5 shows a specific procedure, where fig. 5 is a signaling flowchart for sending a C-RNTI addition message in an embodiment; as shown in figure 5 of the drawings,
step 501, a base station sends a C-RNTI increasing message to a terminal, wherein the message carries one or more corresponding C-RNTIs.
Step 502, the terminal sends a C-RNTI increase confirmation message to the base station.
The base station finds out one or more C-RNTIs with low probability of PDCCH resource collision in a corresponding search space through calculation, and sends the C-RNTIs to the terminal through a high-level signaling; the base station can search for appropriate resources in all search spaces corresponding to a plurality of C-RNTIs corresponding to the terminal to send corresponding PDCCH data, and the terminal searches for corresponding PDCCH resources in all search spaces corresponding to the plurality of C-RNTIs.
The method and the device have the advantages that the C-RNTI is added to the terminal without limitation, so that the retrieval load of the terminal is increased, if one terminal carries a plurality of C-RNTIs, the burden of the terminal for analyzing PDCCH information is too heavy, and in the method and the device, when the resource utilization rate of CCE on a search space corresponding to a certain C-RNTI in one terminal is higher, the C-RNTI is deleted, so that the system performance is improved, and the decoding burden of the terminal is reduced. Figure 6 is a flow diagram of deleting a C-RNTI in one embodiment of the invention;
step 601, the base station selects a C-RNTI.
In step 601, the base station respectively calculates the search space corresponding to each C-RNTI according to the allocated C-RNTI, finds out a search space with a CCE resource utilization rate greater than a specified value by comparing the resource utilization rates of CCEs in the search spaces, and puts the C-RNTI corresponding to the search space into a list to be deleted, wherein the specified value is the average value of the resource utilization rates of all CCEs. In other embodiments of the invention, the probability of PDCCH resource collision of CCE on the search space corresponding to the C-RNTI found by the base station is higher. The specific numerical value is set according to the actual deployment situation.
And the list to be deleted comprises one or more C-RNTIs, the base station selects one C-RNTI, and the terminal corresponding to the selected C-RNTI is the target terminal. And the terminal corresponding to the selected C-RNTI comprises a plurality of C-RNTIs. Since when the terminal has only one C-RNTI, deleting the C-RNTI may cause the terminal to need to re-access the base station, which may affect the user experience. In other embodiments of the present invention, if a plurality of C-RNTIs corresponding to a terminal are all in the list to be deleted, a plurality of C-RNTIs may be selected and any one of them may be reserved; or the deletion operation can be performed by adding a free C-RNTI first.
Step 602, the base station sends a message of deleting the C-RNTI to the target terminal through a high-level signaling, and stops sending the PDCCH in the search space; wherein the message carries the C-RNTI acquired in step 601.
In step 602, the sending, by the base station through the high-level signaling, the message to delete the C-RNTI to the target terminal specifically includes: a terminal sends an RRC connection reconfiguration signaling to a base station, wherein the RRC connection reconfiguration signaling carries a C-RNTI deletion message, and the C-RNTI deletion message comprises corresponding C-RNTI information; and C-RNTI reconfiguration information carried in the RRC connection reconfiguration signaling also comprises the C-RNTI information.
In other embodiments of the present invention, the probability of PDCCH resource collision occurring on the search space corresponding to the C-RNTI of the found target terminal is higher than the average value, and the average value is defined in the same step 601.
Step 603, the target terminal receives a C-RNTI deletion message sent by the base station, analyzes the corresponding C-RNTI from the message, and deletes the corresponding C-RNTI locally according to the analyzed C-RNTI; and stopping searching the search space corresponding to the C-RNTI, and sending a confirmation message to the base station.
Step 604, the base station receives the confirmation message sent by the target terminal and updates the search space of the target terminal.
Step 605, the base station selects a PDCCH channel on the updated one or more search spaces to transmit PDCCH data corresponding to the target terminal; in step 605, the base station selects a PDCCH channel to transmit PDCCH data according to a search space corresponding to one or more C-RNTIs carried by the terminal.
Step 606, the target terminal searches the corresponding PDCCH data in the updated search space. And if the updated target terminal may have one or more C-RNTIs, the target terminal searches for corresponding PDCCH data in all search spaces corresponding to the one or more C-RNTIs.
In step 602 shown in fig. 6, the base station sends a C-RNTI deletion message to the target terminal through a high-layer signaling to delete the corresponding C-RNTI, the specific process is shown in fig. 7, and fig. 7 is a signaling flowchart of sending the C-RNTI deletion message in an embodiment; as shown in figure 7 of the drawings,
step 701, the base station sends a C-RNTI deletion message to the terminal, and the message carries the corresponding C-RNTI.
Step 702, the terminal sends a C-RNTI deletion confirmation message to the base station.
In the signaling flow shown in fig. 5 or fig. 7, the specific data transmission of the C-RNTI is: and encapsulating the related signaling layer by layer from a high layer to a physical layer, and finally mapping the related signaling to a PDSCH data bearing channel indicated by the PDCCH channel.
FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating the effect of PDCCH distribution after using the present invention; as shown in fig. 8, since the search spaces corresponding to the C-RNTI of the terminal 5 and the C-RNTI of the terminal 6 are not enough to transmit PDCCH data, under normal circumstances, the terminal 5 and the terminal 6 need to wait for the PDCCH data transmission of the terminal 3 and the terminal 4 before using corresponding system resources. According to the technical scheme, the base station finds out the C-RNTI corresponding to the idle search space by calculating each idle C-RNTI and sends the C-RNTI to the terminal 5, and the base station can send PDCCH resources of the terminal 5 on the search space corresponding to the newly allocated C-RNTI; and then, finding a C-RNTI corresponding to the idle search space by calculating each idle C-RNTI, and sending the C-RNTI to the terminal 6, wherein the base station can send the PDCCH resources of the terminal 6 on the search space corresponding to the newly allocated C-RNTI.
In practical application, as one terminal has at least one C-RNTI, the base station does not send a C-RNTI deletion message to a terminal with only one C-RNTI. In the schematic diagram shown in fig. 8, in an actual use situation of the present invention, the base station first allocates a new C-RNTI to the terminal 5 and the terminal 6, and then deletes the original C-RNTI, so as to achieve the purpose of artificially allocating the search space, thereby fully utilizing the system resources.
