Description

重复发送处理方法、装置及节点 技术领域
本发明涉及通信领域,具体而言,涉及一种重复发送处理方法、装置及节点。
背景技术
机器类型通信(Machine Type Communication,简称为MTC)用户终端(MTC User Equipment,简称MTC UE),又称M2M(Machine to Machine,机器到机器,简称为M2M)用户通信设备,是现阶段物联网的主要应用形式。低功耗低成本是其可大规模应用的重要保障。目前市场上部署的M2M设备主要基于全球移动通信GSM(Global System of Mobile communication,简称为GSM)***。近年来,由于长期演进LTE(Long Term Evolution,简称为LTE)/LTE-A(LTE的后续演进)的频谱效率的提高,越来越多的移动运营商选择LTE/LTE-A作为未来宽带无线通信***的演进方向。基于LTE/LTE-A的M2M多种类数据业务也将更具吸引力。只有当LTE-M2M设备的成本能做到比GSM***的MTC终端低时,M2M业务才能真正从GSM转到LTE***上。
目前对于降低MTC用户终端成本的主要备选方法包括:减少终端接收天线的数目、降低终端基带处理带宽、降低终端支持的峰值速率、采用半双工模式等等。然而成本的降低意味着性能的下降,对于LTE/LTE-A***小区覆盖的需求是不能降低的,因此采用低成本配置的MTC终端需要采取一些措施才能达到现有LTE终端的覆盖性能需求。另外,MTC终端可能位于地下室、墙角等位置,所处场景要比普通LTE UE恶劣。为了弥补穿透损耗导致的覆盖下降,部分MTC UE需要更高的性能提升,因此针对这种场景进行部分MTC UE的上下行信道覆盖增强是必要的。
因此,在相关技术中,存在如何实现特殊场景下部分用户设备UE信道覆盖增强的问题。
