Description

分配信道的方法、基站设备、控制器和通信*** 技术领域 Method for allocating channels, base station device, controller and communication system

本发明实施例涉及无线通信领域，并且更具体地，涉及分配信道的方法、基站设备、控制器和通信***。背景技术 Embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of wireless communications, and more particularly, to a method of allocating a channel, a base station apparatus, a controller, and a communication system. Background technique

受带宽等条件限制，卫星通信相对于地面传输，信令传输时延会有较大幅度的增加。如果通信的通道中包含卫星通信的通道，则通信时延会比地面传输时要大。 Limited by the bandwidth and other conditions, the satellite communication will be transmitted relative to the ground, and the signaling transmission delay will increase greatly. If the channel of communication contains satellite communication channels, the communication delay will be larger than when transmitting on the ground.

GSM (全球移动通信***； Global System of Mobile communication ) 网络中，在某些地区，由于自然条件或其它经济因素限制，不适合铺设地面传输。因此， GSM 网络中某一段传输可能会采用卫星传输来代替地面传输，例如在 BTS ( Base Transceiver Station; 基站收发台）和 BSC ( Base Station Controller; 基站控制器）之间的 Abis接口上采用卫星传输。此时， GSM通信信令经过这些卫星传输通道时，时延会增加。对于其它通信***，如 CDMA ( Code Division Multiple Access; 码分多址）和 UMTS ( Universal Mobile Telecommunications System; 通用移动通信***），也可能存在这样的问题。 In the GSM (Global System of Mobile communication) network, in some areas, due to natural conditions or other economic factors, it is not suitable for laying ground transmission. Therefore, a certain transmission in the GSM network may use satellite transmission instead of terrestrial transmission, for example, satellite transmission on the Abis interface between BTS (Base Transceiver Station) and BSC (Base Station Controller). . At this point, the delay will increase as GSM communication signaling passes through these satellite transmission channels. Such problems may also exist for other communication systems such as CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) and UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System).

当基站和控制器之间的接口传输时延较大时，例如 Abis接口采用卫星传输时，从 MS ( Mobile Station; 移动台）发送信道请求消息到接收到立即指配消息之间的时间较长，并可能超出了相关定时器的定时时长（超时），导致 MS会重发信道请求。 BSC无法识别两次信道请求是同一个 MS发送的，会重新为该 MS分配一个信道资源，而 MS收到两个立即指配消息后，只会响应其中的一个，也就是说，只会占用其中一个信道。其它重复分配的信道资源需要等待一段之间后才释放。在此期间，这些信道无法分配给其它 MS 使用，造成这些信道资源的浪费。 When the interface transmission delay between the base station and the controller is large, for example, when the Abis interface uses satellite transmission, the time between sending a channel request message from the MS (Mobile Station; mobile station) to receiving the immediate assignment message is long. And may exceed the timing of the relevant timer (timeout), causing the MS to resend the channel request. The BSC cannot recognize that the two channel requests are sent by the same MS, and will re-allocate a channel resource for the MS. After the MS receives two immediate assignment messages, it will only respond to one of them, that is, it will only occupy One of the channels. Other repeatedly allocated channel resources need to wait for a period of time before releasing. During this time, these channels cannot be allocated to other MSs, causing waste of these channel resources.

由于无线频点资源（尤其是卫星传输信道资源）的稀缺性，无线信道资源比较宝贵，因此希望无线信道资源利用率能尽可能高。发明内容 Due to the scarcity of radio frequency resources (especially satellite transmission channel resources), wireless channel resources are more valuable, so it is desirable to have wireless channel resource utilization as high as possible. Summary of the invention

另一方面，提供了一种通信***，包括前述基站设备或前述控制器。本发明实施例将无线信道资源使用授权过程和随机接入过程分离为两个独立过程，即，在随机接入过程之前执行信道分配过程，因此避免了随机接入过程之外的时延引起的信道被分配但不被终端设备使用的情况，从而解决了资源浪费问题，提高了无线资源利用率。附图说明 In another aspect, a communication system is provided, including the aforementioned base station device or the aforementioned controller.

下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图，对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述，显然，所描述的实施例是本发明一部分实施例，而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例，本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其它实施例，都属于本发明保护的范围。 The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are clearly and completely described in the following with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. It is obvious that the described embodiments are a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without making creative labor are within the scope of the present invention.

本发明的技术方案，可以应用于各种通信***，例如： GSM, 码分多址 The technical solution of the present invention can be applied to various communication systems, for example: GSM, code division multiple access

终端设备，也可称之为移动终端（Mobile Terminal ), 用户设备（UE, User Equipment ), 移动用户设备等，可以经无线接入网（例如， RAN, Radio Access Network )与一个或多个核心网进行通信，终端设备可以是移动终端，如移动电话（或称为"蜂窝"电话）和具有移动终端的计算机，例如，可以是便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的或者车载的移动装置，它们与无线接入网交换语言和 /或数据。 A terminal device, which may also be called a mobile terminal, a user equipment (UE, a user equipment), a mobile user equipment, etc., may be connected to one or more cores via a radio access network (eg, RAN, Radio Access Network) The network communicates, and the terminal device can be a mobile terminal, such as a mobile phone (or "cellular" phone) and a computer with a mobile terminal, for example, a mobile device that can be portable, pocket, handheld, computer built, or in-vehicle. They exchange language and/or data with the radio access network.

基站，例如，可以是 GSM或 CDMA中的基站（BTS, Base Transceiver The base station, for example, may be a base station in GSM or CDMA (BTS, Base Transceiver)

Station ), 也可以是 WCDMA中的基站（ NodeB ), 还可以是 LTE中的演进型基站（ eNB或 e-NodeB , evolutional Node B ), 本发明并不限定。 The station may be a base station (NodeB) in WCDMA, or may be an evolved base station (eNB or e-NodeB, evolved Node B) in LTE, which is not limited in the present invention.

控制器，例如，可以是 GSM或 CDMA中的基站控制器（ BSC , Base Station Controller ) , 也可以是 WCDMA中的无线网络控制器（ RNC, Radio Network Controller ), 本发明并不限定。 The controller, for example, may be a base station controller (BSC, Base Station Controller) in GSM or CDMA, or may be a radio network controller (RNC) in WCDMA, which is not limited in the present invention.

为便于描述，下文以 GSM***的 BTS和 BSC等网元为例描述了本发明实施例的方法，但是本发明实施例不限于此。 For convenience of description, the method of the embodiment of the present invention is described below by taking a network element such as a BTS and a BSC of the GSM system as an example, but the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto.

根据 3GPP ( The 3rd Generation Partnership Project; 第三代伙伴关系项目 )规范，用户发起呼叫（包括语音、短消息、位置更新等）时的随机接入过程如图 1所示。图 1是根据 3GPP规范的随机接入过程 10的示意流程图。 According to the 3GPP (The 3rd Generation Partnership Project) specification, the random access procedure when a user initiates a call (including voice, short message, location update, etc.) is shown in Figure 1. 1 is a schematic flow diagram of a random access procedure 10 in accordance with the 3GPP specifications.

在过程 10的 Sll , MS发送 CHANNEL REQUEST (信道请求 ) 消息，同时启动 T3120定时器，以等待响应（立即指配或立即指配拒绝）。 At S11 of process 10, the MS sends a CHANNEL REQUEST message. Start the T3120 timer at the same time to wait for a response (immediate assignment or immediate assignment rejection).

在 S12, BTS接收到 CHANNEL REQUEST消息后，补充附加信息，如 TA ( Timing Advance; 时间提前量 )等信息，并发送 CHANNEL REQUIRED (信道要求）消息给 BSC。 At S12, after receiving the CHANNEL REQUEST message, the BTS supplements additional information such as TA (Timing Advance) and sends a CHANNEL REQUIRED message to the BSC.

在 S13 , BSC 分配合适的信道资源，并向 BTS 发送 CHANNEL At S13, the BSC allocates the appropriate channel resources and sends CHANNEL to the BTS.

ACTIVATION (信道激活）消息，通知 BTS对分配的信道资源进行准备。 The ACTIVATION message informs the BTS to prepare for the allocated channel resources.

在 S14, BTS准备好相应资源后，向 BSC发送 CHANNEL ACTIVATION ACKNOWLEDGE (信道激活确认）消息进行确认。 At S14, after the BTS has prepared the corresponding resources, it sends a CHANNEL ACTIVATION ACKNOWLEDGE message to the BSC for confirmation.

在 S15 , BSC 收到 BTS 的确认消息后，向 MS 发送 IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT (立即指配）消息，通知 MS使用专用信道（即 BSC为其分配的信道资源）。同时，启动 T3101定时器以等待 MS发送层 3业务请求。 At S15, after receiving the BTS acknowledgement message, the BSC sends an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT message to the MS to inform the MS to use the dedicated channel (that is, the channel resource allocated by the BSC). At the same time, the T3101 timer is started to wait for the MS to send the layer 3 service request.

在 S16, MS收到 IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT后，解码并确认该消息对应于自身最近 3次发送的 CHANNEL REQUEST消息之一，则停止 T3120定时器，并在专用信道上发送 SABM ( Set Asynchronous Balanced Mode; 设置异步平衡模式）帧，该 SABM帧中包含层 3业务请求信息。 After receiving the IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT, the MS decodes and confirms that the message corresponds to one of the CHANNEL REQUEST messages sent by the last three times, stops the T3120 timer, and sends SABM (Set Asynchronous Balanced Mode) on the dedicated channel. Balanced mode) frame, the SABM frame contains layer 3 service request information.

在 S17, BTS收到 SABM帧后，解码后，将其中的层 3业务请求信息包装在 ESTABLISH INDICATION (建立指示）消息中，发送给 BSC。 BSC收到 ESTABLISH INDICATION消息后，停止 T3101定时器，随机接入成功。 After receiving the SABM frame, the BTS, after decoding, parses the layer 3 service request information in the ESTABLISH INDICATION message and sends it to the BSC. After receiving the ESTABLISH INDICATION message, the BSC stops the T3101 timer and the random access succeeds.

在随机接入过程，如果 T3120 超时，则 MS 判断发送的 CHANNEL REQUEST次数是否已经超过了信道请求最大重发次数，再根据结果进行不同处理：（i)如果未超过信道请求最大重发次数，则 MS重新发送 CHANNEL REQUEST消息，并重新启动 T3120。（ii)如果已经达到了最大重发次数，则 MS启动 T3126, 如果 T3126超时后仍未收到网络应答，则放弃请求尝试，随机接入失败。 In the random access procedure, if the T3120 times out, the MS determines whether the number of CHANNEL REQUESTs sent has exceeded the maximum number of retransmissions of the channel request, and then performs different processing according to the result: (i) if the maximum number of retransmissions of the channel request is not exceeded, The MS resends the CHANNEL REQUEST message and restarts the T3120. (ii) If the maximum number of retransmissions has been reached, the MS starts T3126. If the network response is not received after the T3126 times out, the request is aborted and the random access fails.

在随机接入过程，如果 T3101定时器超时，则 BSC通知 BTS释放已经分配的信道资源，并清除相关的接入信息。 In the random access procedure, if the T3101 timer expires, the BSC notifies the BTS to release the allocated channel resources and clear the associated access information.

BSC和 BTS之间的消息传输所需时间较长时，例如当 BSC和 BTS之间的接口采用卫星传输时，上述过程 10中 S12、 S13、 S14、 S15消耗的时间较长，即 MS 发送 CHANNEL REQUEST 消息到接收到 IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT消息之间的时间较长。这个时间可能超出了 T3120定时器的定时时长，导致 T3120定时器超时， MS重发 CHANNEL REQUEST。 BSC 无法识别两次的 CHANNEL REQUEST是同一个 MS发送的，会重新为该 MS分配一个信道资源，而 MS收到 IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT后，只会响应其中的一个，也就是说，只会占用其中一个信道。其它重复分配的信道资源需要等到 T3101 超时后才释放，在此期间，这些信道无法分配给其它 MS使用，造成这些信道资源的浪费。 When the time required for message transmission between the BSC and the BTS is long, for example, when the interface between the BSC and the BTS is transmitted by satellite, S12, S13, S14, and S15 in the above process 10 consume a longer time, that is, the MS transmits CHANNEL. The time between the REQUEST message and the receipt of the IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT message is longer. This time may exceed the timing of the T3120 timer, causing the T3120 timer to time out and the MS resending CHANNEL REQUEST. BSC If the CHANNEL REQUEST that is not recognized twice is sent by the same MS, it will re-allocate a channel resource for the MS. After receiving the IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT, the MS will only respond to one of them, that is, it will only occupy one of the channels. Other repeatedly allocated channel resources need to wait until the T3101 times out, during which time these channels cannot be allocated to other MSs, causing waste of these channel resources.

图 2是根据本发明实施例的分配信道的方法 20的示意流程图。方法 20 可以由基站设备（如 BTS )执行。 2 is a schematic flow diagram of a method 20 of allocating channels in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Method 20 can be performed by a base station device, such as a BTS.

如图 2所示，在方法 20的 S22, 向控制器（如 BSC ) 申请信道资源。在 S24, 接收控制器分配的信道资源授权。 As shown in FIG. 2, at S22 of method 20, a channel resource is requested from a controller (such as a BSC). At S24, the channel resource authorization assigned by the controller is received.

然后在 S26, 接收终端设备（如 MS ) 的信道请求消息。在 S28, 根据信道请求消息和信道资源授权向终端设备分配信道。 Then at S26, a channel request message of the terminal device (e.g., MS) is received. At S28, a channel is allocated to the terminal device according to the channel request message and the channel resource grant.

本发明实施例将无线信道资源使用授权过程和随机接入过程分离为两个独立过程，即，在随机接入过程（ S26-S28 ) 之前执行信道分配过程 ( S22-S24 ), 因此随机接入过程之外的时延不会引起信道被分配但不被终端设备使用的情况，从而解决了资源浪费问题，提高了无线资源利用率。 The embodiment of the present invention separates the wireless channel resource use authorization process and the random access procedure into two independent processes, that is, performs a channel allocation process (S22-S24) before the random access procedure (S26-S28), and thus random access The delay outside the process does not cause the channel to be allocated but not used by the terminal device, thereby solving the problem of resource waste and improving the utilization of the wireless resource.

图 3是根据本发明实施例的分配信道的方法 30的示意流程图。方法 30 可以由控制器（如 BSC )执行。方法 30与图 2的方法 20相对应。 3 is a schematic flow diagram of a method 30 of allocating channels in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Method 30 can be performed by a controller such as a BSC. Method 30 corresponds to method 20 of FIG.

如图 3所示，在方法 30的 S32, 接收基站设备 (如 BTS )在随机接入过程之前对信道资源的申请，然后在 S34, 根据信道资源的申请向基站设备分配信道资源授权，以便于由基站设备在随机接入过程中根据信道资源授权分配信道。 As shown in FIG. 3, in S32 of the method 30, the base station device (such as the BTS) receives the application for the channel resource before the random access procedure, and then, at S34, allocates the channel resource authorization to the base station device according to the application of the channel resource, so as to facilitate The channel is allocated by the base station device according to the channel resource grant in the random access procedure.

本发明实施例将无线信道资源使用授权过程和随机接入过程分离为两个独立过程，即，在随机接入过程之前执行信道分配过程，因此随机接入过程之外的时延不会引起信道被分配但不被终端设备使用的情况，从而解决了资源浪费问题，提高了无线资源利用率。 The embodiment of the present invention separates the radio channel resource use authorization process and the random access procedure into two independent processes, that is, performs a channel allocation process before the random access procedure, so the delay outside the random access procedure does not cause the channel. The situation is allocated but not used by the terminal device, thereby solving the problem of resource waste and improving the utilization of wireless resources.

下面结合具体例子更加详细地描述本发明实施例。 Embodiments of the present invention are described in more detail below with reference to specific examples.

图 4是根据本发明实施例的信道分配过程 40的示意流程图。信道分配过程 40涉及三个网元 MS、 BTS和 BSC。在图 4中，相同或相似的处理过程用相同的附图标记表示。 4 is a schematic flow diagram of a channel allocation process 40 in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The channel allocation process 40 involves three network elements MS, BTS and BSC. In Fig. 4, the same or similar processes are denoted by the same reference numerals.

在信道分配过程 40中， BTS在启动后向 BSC集中申请信道资源。在随机接入过程中， BTS不需要再次向 BSC请求信道资源，直接使用之前申请到的资源分配给 MS使用。当 BSC授权给 BTS的信道资源都被占用时， BTS 可以再次向 BSC申请新的授权，以便后续 MS接入。 In the channel allocation process 40, the BTS collectively applies for channel resources to the BSC after startup. In the random access process, the BTS does not need to request channel resources from the BSC again, and directly applies before applying. The resources arrived are allocated to the MS for use. When the channel resources granted by the BSC to the BTS are occupied, the BTS may apply for a new grant to the BSC again for subsequent MS access.

信道分配过程 40可以分为无线资源使用授权过程 S4a-S4c (以及必要时的 S4a，-S4c， )和随机接入处理过程 S41-S44两个独立的过程。 The channel allocation process 40 can be divided into two independent processes, a radio resource use authorization process S4a-S4c (and S4a, -S4c if necessary) and a random access process S41-S44.

在无线资源使用授权过程中，首先在 S4a, BTS启动进入正常工作状态后，通过信道资源请求消息（CHANNEL RESOURCE REQUEST ) 向 BSC 发起资源申请，请求 BSC进行信道分配授权。 S4a可分别对应于上面描述的图 2的 S22和图 3的 S32。 In the radio resource use authorization process, first, after the BTS starts to enter the normal working state, the BTS initiates a resource request through the channel resource request message (CHANNEL RESOURCE REQUEST) to request the BSC to perform channel allocation authorization. S4a may correspond to S22 of Fig. 2 and S32 of Fig. 3, respectively, as described above.

BSC收到 BTS的信道资源请求后，根据该请求将一部分信道资源授权给 BTS使用，并在 S4b,向 BTS发送信道资源授权 (CHANNEL RESOURCE AUTHORIZATION) 消息作为响应，通知 BTS已经获得授权的资源信息。这里，信道资源授权可包括多个信道的授权。 S4b可对应于上面图 2的 S24和图 3的 S34。 After receiving the channel resource request of the BTS, the BSC grants a part of the channel resource to the BTS according to the request, and sends a CHANNEL RESOURCE AUTHORIZATION message to the BTS in response to the BTS to notify the BTS that the authorized resource information has been obtained. Here, the channel resource grant may include authorization for multiple channels. S4b may correspond to S24 of Fig. 2 above and S34 of Fig. 3.

然后在 S4c, BTS 收到授权信息后，向 BSC发送信道资源授权确认 ( CHANNEL RESOURCE AUTHORIZATION ACKNOWLEDGE ) 消息，完成信道资源申请和授权过程。 Then, after receiving the authorization information, the BTS sends a CHANNEL RESOURCE AUTHORIZATION ACKNOWLEDGE message to the BSC to complete the channel resource application and authorization process.

S4a，- S4c，是授权过程的特殊处理过程，当 BSC授权给 BTS的信道资源都被占用（即 BTS得到的信道授权已用完）时， BTS可以申请追加授权，再次向 BSC申请新的授权，以便后续 MS接入。 S4a, - S4c, is a special processing procedure of the authorization process. When the channel resources authorized by the BSC to the BTS are occupied (that is, the channel authorization obtained by the BTS is exhausted), the BTS may apply for additional authorization and apply for a new authorization to the BSC again. For subsequent MS access.

在 S4a，，当前一次授权的多个信道资源已经使用完（例如，随机接入较多，已获得授权的资源全部分配给 MS ), 为了避免其它随机接入无法进行， BTS可以重新向 BSC发起资源申请（ CHANNEL RESOURCE REQUEST ), 要求 BSC追加授权。 In S4a, the current one-time authorized multiple channel resources have been used (for example, more random access, all authorized resources are allocated to the MS), in order to prevent other random access from being performed, the BTS may re-initiate the BSC. Resource request (CHANNEL RESOURCE REQUEST), requesting additional authorization from BSC.

在 S4b，， BSC根据 BTS的请求以及信道分配策略，决定是否可以继续对 BTS 追加授权。如果允许追加授权，则给 BTS 发送信道资源授权消息 (CHANNEL RESOURCE AUTHORIZATION)作为响应，通知 BTS已经获得授权的资源信息。如果不允许向 BTS追加授权，则发送拒绝消息。 At S4b, the BSC determines whether it is possible to continue to grant additional authorization to the BTS based on the BTS request and the channel allocation policy. If additional authorization is allowed, a BTS is sent a CHANNEL RESOURCE AUTHORIZATION response to inform the BTS that the authorized resource information has been obtained. If the authorization is not allowed to be added to the BTS, a reject message is sent.

在 S4c，， BTS 收到授权确认信息后，向 BSC发送信道资源授权确认 ( CHANNEL RESOURCE AUTHORIZATION ACKNOWLEDGE ) 消息，完成信道资源追加申请和授权过程。 At S4c, after receiving the authorization confirmation information, the BTS sends a CHANNEL RESOURCE AUTHORIZATION ACKNOWLEDGE message to the BSC to complete the channel resource addition request and authorization process.

在随机接入过程中，首先在 S41 , MS发送 CHANNEL REQUEST消息，同时启动 T3120定时器，等待响应（立即指配或立即指配拒绝）。 S41可对应于上面图 2的 S26, 并且可以与图 1的 S11类似。 In the random access process, first at S41, the MS sends a CHANNEL REQUEST message, At the same time start the T3120 timer and wait for a response (immediate assignment or immediate assignment rejection). S41 may correspond to S26 of FIG. 2 above, and may be similar to S11 of FIG.

BTS接收到 CHANNEL REQUEST消息后，查看授权使用的信道使用情况，从授权使用的信道中分配合适的信道给 MS。该合适的信道是 MS的专用信道。在 S42, BTS向 MS发送 IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT (立即指配 ) 消息，通知 MS使用该专用信道。同时，启动 T3101定时器等待 MS发送 SABM帧。 After receiving the CHANNEL REQUEST message, the BTS checks the channel usage of the authorized use and allocates the appropriate channel to the MS from the channel used for authorization. The suitable channel is the dedicated channel of the MS. At S42, the BTS sends an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT message to the MS to inform the MS to use the dedicated channel. At the same time, the T3101 timer is started to wait for the MS to send a SABM frame.

在 S43, MS收到 IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT后，解码并确认该消息对应于自身最近 3次发送的 CHANNEL REQUEST消息之一，则停止 T3120定时器，并在专用信道上发送 SABM帧（内含层 3业务请求信息）。 S43类似于图 1的 S16。 After receiving the IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT, the MS decodes and confirms that the message corresponds to one of the CHANNEL REQUEST messages sent by the last 3 times, stops the T3120 timer, and sends the SABM frame on the dedicated channel (including the layer 3 service request). information). S43 is similar to S16 of Fig. 1.

在 S44, BTS收到 SABM帧后，解码后，将其中的层 3业务请求信息和该 MS 占用的信道（专用信道）的信息（如资源 ID ) 包装在信道请求告 ( CHANNEL REQUEST REPORT ) 消息中发送给 BSC , 并停止 T3101定时器，随机接入过程成功。 After receiving the SABM frame, the BTS, after decoding, wraps the layer 3 service request information and the information (such as the resource ID) of the channel (dedicated channel) occupied by the MS in the CHANNEL REQUEST REPORT message. Send to the BSC, and stop the T3101 timer, the random access process is successful.

如图 4所示，对于一个或多个 MS, 可重复 S41-S44的随机接入过程，向这些 MS分配各自的专用信道。 As shown in FIG. 4, for one or more MSs, the random access procedures of S41-S44 may be repeated, and the respective dedicated channels are allocated to the MSs.

根据本发明的一个实施例，在随机接入过程中，如果 T3120超时，则 MS判断发送的 CHANNEL REQUEST次数是否已经超过了信道请求最大重发次数，根据结果进行不同处理：（i)如果未超过信道请求最大重发次数，则 MS重新发送 CHANNEL REQUEST消息，并重新启动 T3120。（ii)如果已经达到了最大重发次数，则 MS启动 T3126, 如果 T3126超时后仍未收到网络应答，则放弃请求尝试，随机接入失败。 According to an embodiment of the present invention, in the random access procedure, if T3120 times out, the MS determines whether the number of CHANNEL REQUESTs sent has exceeded the maximum number of retransmissions of the channel request, and performs different processing according to the result: (i) if not exceeded If the channel requests the maximum number of retransmissions, the MS resends the CHANNEL REQUEST message and restarts T3120. (ii) If the maximum number of retransmissions has been reached, the MS starts T3126. If the network response is not received after the T3126 times out, the request is abandoned and the random access fails.

根据本发明的另一实施例，在 T3101定时器超时后， BTS释放已经分配的信道资源，并清除相关的接入信息。 According to another embodiment of the present invention, after the T3101 timer expires, the BTS releases the allocated channel resources and clears the associated access information.

本发明实施例将 BSC和 BTS之间的无线信道资源授权过程放到随机接入过程 (即 MS发送 CHANNEL REQUEST消息到 BSC收到对应的层 3业务请求的处理过程）之前进行，因此避免了随机接入过程之外的时延引起的信道被分配但不被终端设备使用的情况，从而解决了资源浪费问题，提高了无线资源利用率。 The embodiment of the present invention performs the radio channel resource authorization process between the BSC and the BTS before the random access procedure (that is, the process in which the MS sends the CHANNEL REQUEST message to the BSC to receive the corresponding layer 3 service request), thereby avoiding randomization. The channel caused by the delay outside the access process is allocated but not used by the terminal device, thereby solving the problem of resource waste and improving the utilization of the wireless resource.

当基站和控制器之间的传输时延较长时（例如基站和控制器之间的接口采用卫星传输），图 1的方法可能导致 T3120多次超时，随机接入最终失败。图 4的实施例将通过卫星传输链路进行传递的信令处理放到随机接入过程之外进行，降低了 MS发送 CHANNEL REQUEST消息到收到 IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT消息之间的时间，不会引起 T3120超时和 MS重复发起请求而重复为 MS分配信道资源，从而提高了无线资源利用率。 When the transmission delay between the base station and the controller is long (for example, the interface between the base station and the controller) Using satellite transmission, the method of Figure 1 may cause T3120 to time out multiple times, and random access eventually fails. The embodiment of FIG. 4 puts the signaling processing delivered through the satellite transmission link outside the random access procedure, reducing the time between when the MS sends the CHANNEL REQUEST message to the receipt of the IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT message, and does not cause the T3120 to time out. And the MS repeatedly initiates the request and repeatedly allocates channel resources to the MS, thereby improving the utilization of the radio resources.

图 4的例子中 BTS首先向 BSC申请多个信道资源的授权，本发明实施例不限于此，也可以每次仅申请一个信道资源的授权。图 5是根据本发明另一实施例的信道分配过程 50的示意流程图。在图 5的信道分配过程 50中， BSC每次向 BTS授权一个信道的资源。 In the example of FIG. 4, the BTS first applies for authorization of multiple channel resources to the BSC. The embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto, and only one channel resource authorization may be applied at a time. Figure 5 is a schematic flow diagram of a channel allocation process 50 in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention. In the channel allocation process 50 of Figure 5, the BSC authorizes the resources of one channel to the BTS each time.

如图 5所示，信道分配过程 50也分为两个独立的过程：无线资源使用授权过程 S51-S52和随机接入处理过程 S53-S56。 As shown in Figure 5, the channel allocation process 50 is also divided into two separate processes: radio resource usage authorization process S51-S52 and random access process S53-S56.

BTS启动后，向 BSC申请一个信道资源。从而在后续的随机接入过程中， BTS不需要再次向 BSC请求信道资源，直接使用之前申请到的资源分配给 MS使用。当 MS随机接入成功后， BTS再次向 BSC申请一个信道资源，用于下一次的随机接入。将 BSC和 BTS之间时延较大的处理放到随机接入开始之前，能够减少随机接入中的时延，提高资源利用率。 After the BTS is started, it applies for a channel resource to the BSC. Therefore, in the subsequent random access process, the BTS does not need to request the channel resource from the BSC again, and directly allocates the previously applied resource to the MS. After the random access of the MS is successful, the BTS again applies for a channel resource to the BSC for the next random access. By placing the processing with a large delay between the BSC and the BTS before random access starts, the delay in random access can be reduced, and resource utilization can be improved.

如图 5所示，在 Abis接口使用卫星传输时， BSC和 BTS之间的信令交互过程在随机接入之前完成。 As shown in Figure 5, when satellite transmission is used on the Abis interface, the signaling interaction process between the BSC and the BTS is completed before random access.

具体地，在 S51 , BTS 启动进入正常工作状态后，通过信道资源请求 ( CHANNEL RESOURCE REQUEST )消息向 BSC发起资源申请，请求 BSC 进行信道分配授权。与图 4的 S4a不同， BTS在 S51中只申请一个信道的授权。 Specifically, after the BTS starts to enter the normal working state, the BTS initiates a resource request to the BSC by using a CHANNEL RESOURCE REQUEST message, requesting the BSC to perform channel allocation authorization. Unlike S4a of Fig. 4, the BTS applies for authorization of only one channel in S51.

在 S52, BSC收到 BTS的信道资源请求后，根据请求，分配一个信道资源授权给 BTS 使用，并给 BTS 发送响应消息 (CHANNEL RESOURCE AUTHORIZATION) , 通知 BTS已经获得授权的资源信息。 At S52, after receiving the channel resource request of the BTS, the BSC allocates a channel resource grant to the BTS according to the request, and sends a response message (CHANNEL RESOURCE AUTHORIZATION) to the BTS to notify the BTS that the authorized resource information has been obtained.

然后是随机接入过程 S53-S56。具体地，在 S53, MS向 BTS发送信道请求（ CHANNEL REQUEST )消息，同时启动 T3120定时器，等待响应（立即指配或立即指配拒绝）。 Then there is the random access procedure S53-S56. Specifically, at S53, the MS sends a CHANNEL REQUEST message to the BTS, and simultaneously starts the T3120 timer, waiting for a response (immediate assignment or immediate assignment rejection).

在 S54, BTS接收到 CHANNEL REQUEST消息后，将 BSC授权使用的信道（即， MS的专用信道）分配给 MS,并向 MS发送立即指配（ IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT ) 消息，通知 MS使用该专用信道。同时，启动 T3101定时器等待 MS发送 SABM帧。 At S54, after receiving the CHANNEL REQUEST message, the BTS allocates the channel used by the BSC authorization (ie, the dedicated channel of the MS) to the MS, and sends an IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT message to the MS, informing the MS to use the dedicated channel. At the same time, start T3101 timing The device waits for the MS to send a SABM frame.

在 S55, MS收到 IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT后，解码并确认该消息对应于自身最近 3次发送的 CHANNEL REQUEST消息之一，则停止 T3120定时器，并在专用信道上发送 SABM帧（内含层 3业务请求信息）。 After receiving the IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT, the MS decodes and confirms that the message corresponds to one of the CHANNEL REQUEST messages sent by the last 3 times, stops the T3120 timer, and sends the SABM frame on the dedicated channel (including the layer 3 service request). information).

在 S56, BTS收到 SABM帧后，解码后，将其中的层 3业务请求信息和该 MS占用的信道（即 MS的专用信道）信息包装在信道请求报告（ CHANNEL REQUEST REPORT ) 消息中发送给 BSC , 并停止 T3101定时器，此时随机接入过程成功。 After receiving the SABM frame, the BTS, after decoding, wraps the layer 3 service request information and the channel occupied by the MS (ie, the dedicated channel of the MS) in a channel request report (CHANNEL REQUEST REPORT) message and sends the message to the BSC. And stop the T3101 timer, at which point the random access process is successful.

如图 5所示，对于多个 MS, 可重复 S51-S56的信道分配过程，向这些 MS分配各自的专用信道。 As shown in FIG. 5, for a plurality of MSs, the channel allocation process of S51-S56 can be repeated, and the respective dedicated channels are allocated to the MSs.

根据本发明的另一实施例，如果 T3101定时器超时，则 BTS释放已经分配的信道资源，并清除相关的接入信息。 According to another embodiment of the present invention, if the T3101 timer expires, the BTS releases the already allocated channel resources and clears the associated access information.

本发明实施例将 BSC和 BTS之间的无线信道资源使用授权过程放到随机接入过程 (即 MS发送 CHANNEL REQUEST消息到 BSC收到对应的层 3 业务请求的处理过程）之前进行，因此随机接入过程之外的时延不会引起信道被分配但不被终端设备使用的情况，从而解决了资源浪费问题，提高了无线资源利用率。 In the embodiment of the present invention, the radio channel resource use authorization process between the BSC and the BTS is performed before the random access procedure (that is, the process in which the MS sends a CHANNEL REQUEST message to the BSC to receive the corresponding layer 3 service request), and thus is randomly connected. The delay outside the incoming process does not cause the channel to be allocated but not used by the terminal device, thereby solving the problem of resource waste and improving the utilization of the wireless resource.

另外，与图 4的实施例相比，图 5的实施例中 BTS无需预测信道资源的使用情况并根据预测结果确定每次申请授权的信道资源的数目，每次仅仅申请固定数目（例如，一个）的信道资源的授权。 In addition, compared with the embodiment of FIG. 4, the BTS in the embodiment of FIG. 5 does not need to predict the use of channel resources and determines the number of channel resources authorized for each application according to the prediction result, and only applies a fixed number each time (for example, one Authorization of channel resources.

The selection module 71 is configured to select a dedicated channel allocated to the terminal device according to the channel request message and the channel resource grant. The sending module 72 is configured to send an immediate assignment message to the terminal device to notify the terminal device of the allocated dedicated channel.

基站控制器 80的各个部分可分别执行图 3的各个过程，为避免重复，不再赘述。 The various parts of the base station controller 80 can respectively perform the respective processes of FIG. 3, and are not described again in order to avoid redundancy.

本发明实施例将无线信道资源使用授权过程和随机接入过程分离为两个独立过程，即，在随机接入过程之前执行信道分配过程，因此随机接入过程之外的时延不会引起信道被分配但不被终端设备使用的情况，从而解决了资源浪费问题，提高了无线资源利用率。根据本发明的另一实施例，申请接收单元 81还可以用于接收基站设备对信道资源的追加授权申请，此时，授权单元 82还可以用于根据追加授权申请和信道分配策略，确定是否对基站设备追加信道资源授权。 The embodiment of the present invention separates the radio channel resource use authorization process and the random access procedure into two independent processes, that is, performs a channel allocation process before the random access procedure, so the delay outside the random access procedure does not cause the channel. The situation is allocated but not used by the terminal device, thereby solving the problem of resource waste and improving the utilization of wireless resources.
