Multicast communication.
Method provided in an embodiment of the present invention will be illustrated so that network side node coordinates implementation as an example below.
Before processing procedure is described, the data under the CoMP central dispatching scenes using this method are introduced first
Transmission architecture.
Framework one:Data transfer path between CoMP UE and core net is S-GW<—>Serving BS<—>CoMP UE
(I.e. data-direct connection interface is present between S-GW and CoMP UE serving BS), CCN and serving BS are provided with dispatching work(
Energy.
Under this framework, the cooperative scheduling that CCN and serving BS perform can have following several implementations:
CCN is performed to CoMP UE master scheduling function, serving BS dispatched according to CCN perform CoMPUE data transfers and
Non- CoMP UE scheduling and data transfer;
CCN performs the master scheduling function to CoMP UE, is responsible for CoMP UE scheduling cooperative multipoint transmission transmission, serving BS
It is responsible for scheduling and the data transfer such as the scheduling of CoMP UE unicasts and transmission and non-CoMP UE scheduling;
CCN performs the pre-scheduling to CoMP UE, and serving BS performs CoMP UE actual schedule.
In addition, CCN can also be further equipped with to CoMP UE temporary data storage functions and corresponding caching(buffer).
Framework two:Data transfer path between CoMP UE and core net is S-GW<—>CCN<—>Serving BS<—>
UE(That is data-direct connection interface is present between S-GW and CCN), CCN and serving BS are provided with scheduling feature.
Under this framework, CCN is CoMP UE and the data relay point of core net.During UE RCC connections foundation, service
UE types are known in base station, and if the UE for supporting CoMP transmission, serving BS is according to UE types(Whether CoMP transmission is supported), it is current
Network judges whether to indicate that the RAN sides that the core net UE is connected are used to CoMP tenability situation with factors such as network side strategies
Family plane anchor point is CCN;Or established user plane anchor point in serving BS using prior art, can be in triggering CoMP UE
During cooperative multipoint transmission, pass through switching, path handover request(path switch request)User plane anchor point is changed etc. process
For CCN.Particularly, the control plane anchor point of user can be the serving BS of the UE under this framework, can also be by chain of command road
Footpath is changed to MME<—>CCN<—>Serving BS<—>Terminal, to reduce handover overhead.
Scheduling implementation under this framework is similar with framework one, repeats no more here.
For above-mentioned framework one, it is switched to CoMP UE from the serving BS of support CoMP transmission and does not support CoMP transmission
Target BS X2 switchings exemplified by, CoMP transmission control method in a kind of handoff procedure and handoff procedure is as shown in figure 4, tool
Body includes following operation:
Step 400, serving BS determine to carry out cell switching to CoMP UE.
Specifically, serving BS reports handover measurement reported result according to CoMP UE(Such as RSRP/RSRQ), judgement is
It is no to meet switching condition.If it is satisfied, then determine to carry out cell switching to CoMP UE.
Step 410a, serving BS sends handover request message to each alternative target base station.
Wherein, handoff request message prepares relevant parameter containing switching, sentences to help alternative target base station to perform receiving
Certainly, the work such as radio-resource-configuration.
Optionally, CoMP transmission capability requests information, the CoMP transmission capability requests are also included in the handover request message
Information is used to indicate that target BS sends its configured information for whether supporting the cooperative multipoint transmission to above-mentioned terminal.Further
, serving BS can also carry whether serving BS supports cooperative multipoint transmission to above-mentioned terminal in handover request message
Configured information.
Step 420a, allow to receive above-mentioned CoMP UE alternative target base station to send switching request response to serving BS.
Specifically, each alternative target base station receives the handover request message that serving BS is sent, according to carrying to be accepted
Service quality(QoS)The information such as information, current interference, load condition carries out acceptance judging.If alternative target base station allows
The CoMP UE are received, then bottom configuration are carried out, to prepare to switch.
Alternative target base station is at least carried to the wireless of the CoMPUE to the handover request ack message that serving BS returns
Resource allocation information.
Optionally, can also carry instruction in the handover request ack message that alternative target base station returns to serving BS is
The information of the no information for supporting CoMP transmission and the CoMP transmission pattern of support.Both serving BS transmission can received
After CoMP transmission capability requests information, these information are sent, can also actively send these information.With specific reference to advance configuration
Or depending on agreement.
Step 430a, after serving BS receives the handover request ack message of alternative target base station transmission, to CoMP UE
Switching command is sent, stops the data transmit-receive of the CoMP UE on this base station, and will not transmitted or unacknowledged data interaction is to mesh
Mark base station.
Wherein, if multiple alternative target base stations return handover request ack message to serving BS, then base is serviced
Therefrom selection one of standing is used as target BS.
Wherein, serving BS is sent to CoMP UE switching command and can carried in RRC connection reconfiguration messages.
Step 440a, after CoMP UE perform the synchronization with target BS, the cell of target BS is switched to.
Specifically, after CoMP UE receive the switching command of serving BS transmission, stop the data transmit-receive with serving BS,
Synchronization operation is performed with target BS, Radio Resource is carried out and carrying is matched somebody with somebody again.
After synchronously completing, CoMP UE return to handoff completion message to target BS(RRC reconfigures completion message).Target
After base station receives this message, RLC ACK message is returned, starts simultaneously at the transmission for carrying out downlink data;And core net is notified to turn
Change path(Path switch request processes are triggered, notice core network data transmission path is changed to SGW<—>Target base
Stand<—>CoMP UE).Target BS receives path Handover Request Acknowledge(path switch request ack)Afterwards, notice clothes
Business base station discharges old carrying and UE contexts.CoMP UE are after receiving RRC and reconfiguring the ACK of completion message, with target base
Target of standing carries out upstream data transmission.
