In this application.
技术领域Technical field
本发明实施例涉及通信技术,尤其涉及一种媒介访问控制包头压缩方法、装置及***。The embodiments of the present invention relate to communication technologies, and in particular, to a medium access control packet header compression method, apparatus, and system.
背景技术Background technique
随着移动互联网的发展和智能终端的普及,数据流量呈现出爆发式的增长趋势。无线局域网(Wireless Local Area Network,简称:WLAN)凭借其在高速率和低成本方面的优势,成为当今主流的移动宽带接入技术之一,其相关协议电气和电子工程师协会(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers,简称:IEEE)802.11ac和802.11n中规定的媒介访问控制(Media Access Control,简称:MAC)包头的内容如图1所示,地址(Address)1表示接收地址(Receive Address,简称:RA),地址2表示发送地址(Transmit Address,简称:TA),地址3表示源地址,地址4表示目的地址,各占用6个字节。With the development of mobile Internet and the popularity of smart terminals, data traffic has shown an explosive growth trend. Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) is one of the mainstream mobile broadband access technologies with its advantages in high speed and low cost. Its related protocol is Institute of Electrical and Electronics. Engineers, abbreviation: IEEE) The contents of the Media Access Control (MAC) header specified in 802.11ac and 802.11n are shown in Figure 1. The address 1 indicates the Receive Address (RA). ), address 2 indicates a transmission address (Transmit Address, abbreviated as TA), address 3 indicates a source address, and address 4 indicates a destination address, each occupying 6 bytes.
下一代WLAN***的协议IEEE802.11ax为了提升时频资源利用率,引入正交频分多址(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access,简称:OFDMA)技术,接入点(Access Point,简称:AP)可以在不同的时频资源上与不同的站点(Station,简称:STA)进行上下行传输。IEEE802.11ax, a protocol for the next-generation WLAN system, introduces Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) technology to improve time-frequency resource utilization. Access Point (AP) can be used. Upstream and downlink transmissions are performed on different time-frequency resources with different stations (Station, abbreviated as STA).
但是,如果在引入了OFDMA技术的WLAN***中继续使用IEEE802.11ac和802.11n规定的MAC包头,由于AP同时会调度多个STA,MAC包头中将会出现多组RA和TA,导致MAC包头的地址开销增大,影响***性能。However, if the MAC header specified by IEEE802.11ac and 802.11n is used in the WLAN system with the OFDMA technology introduced, since the AP will schedule multiple STAs at the same time, multiple groups of RAs and TAs will appear in the MAC header, resulting in the MAC header. Address overhead increases, affecting system performance.

具体实施方式detailed description
为使本发明实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,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他实施例,都属于本发明保护的范围。The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. It is a partial embodiment of the invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts are within the scope of the present invention.
图2为本发明MAC包头压缩方法的一个应用场景示意图,如图2所示,本实施例的应用场景为引入了OFDMA技术的WLAN***,该WLAN***中包括一个AP 10和四个STA 20(即STA1、STA2、STA3、STA4)。AP 10可以将通过本发明中的MAC包头压缩方法生成的MAC包头和MAC帧体封装在下行物理层协议数据单元(Physical Layer Protocol Data Unit,简称:PPDU)中,并将PPDU发送给至少一个STA 20。FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of an application scenario of a MAC header compression method according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the application scenario of the present embodiment is a WLAN system that introduces an OFDMA technology, where the WLAN system includes one AP 10 and four STAs 20 ( That is, STA1, STA2, STA3, and STA4). The AP 10 may encapsulate the MAC header and the MAC frame generated by the MAC header compression method in the present invention in a Physical Layer Protocol Data Unit (PPDU), and send the PPDU to at least one STA. 20.
图3为本发明MAC包头压缩方法的一个实施例的流程图,如图3所示,本实施例的方法可以包括:FIG. 3 is a flowchart of an embodiment of a MAC header compression method according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, the method in this embodiment may include:
步骤101、生成MAC包头,所述MAC包头的格式为压缩MAC包头占用的字节数后的MAC包头格式;Step 101: Generate a MAC header, where the format of the MAC header is a MAC header format after compressing the number of bytes occupied by the MAC header;
下一代WLAN***的协议IEEE802.11ax中,AP可以在发送给STA的下行PPDU中包括物理会聚协议(Physical Layer Convergence Procedure,简称:PLCP)头域和数据域,PLCP头域包括前导和控制域,其中控制域包括高效信令(high efficiency signal,简称:HE-SIG)HE-SIGA和HE-SIGB,在HE-SIGB中包括AP对多个被调度的STA的上行和/或下行时频资源指示信息。STA可以通过接收并解码PPDU中的HE-SIGB信息,获知自身进行上行和/或下行传输所使用的时频资源指示信息。In the IEEE 802.11ax protocol of the next-generation WLAN system, the AP may include a Physical Layer Convergence Procedure (PLCP) header field and a data field in the downlink PPDU sent to the STA, and the PLCP header field includes a preamble and a control domain. The control domain includes high efficiency signaling (HE-SIG) HE-SIGA and HE-SIGB, and the uplink and/or downlink time-frequency resource indication of the AP to multiple scheduled STAs is included in the HE-SIGB. information. The STA can obtain the time-frequency resource indication information used by the UE for uplink and/or downlink transmission by receiving and decoding the HE-SIGB information in the PPDU.
本实施例AP基于上述PPDU中的HE-SIGB指示的被调度的STA的标识信息,可以对MAC包头中的地址部分进行压缩,在MAC包头中仅传输TA或RA,有效降低MAC包头的地址开销。STA在接收到PPDU后,可以结合PPDU中的HE-SIGB指示的被调度的STA的标识信息和 MAC包头中的地址部分确定出该PPDU的RA。In this embodiment, the AP can compress the address part in the MAC header according to the identifier information of the scheduled STA indicated by the HE-SIGB in the PPDU, and only transmit the TA or RA in the MAC header, thereby effectively reducing the address overhead of the MAC header. . After receiving the PPDU, the STA may combine the identification information of the scheduled STA indicated by the HE-SIGB in the PPDU and The address portion of the MAC header determines the RA of the PPDU.
MAC包头的格式即为压缩MAC包头占用的字节数后的MAC包头格式,其可以是预先存储在AP中的格式。从图1可知,现有的MAC包头格式中由于包括了TA和RA,一共需要12个字节,如果对其中之一进行压缩,那么压缩后的MAC包头中的地址部分即可少占用6个字节,大大减少了MAC包头的地址开销。The format of the MAC header is the MAC header format after compressing the number of bytes occupied by the MAC header, which may be a format pre-stored in the AP. As can be seen from FIG. 1, the existing MAC header format includes a total of 12 bytes because TA and RA are included. If one of them is compressed, the address portion of the compressed MAC header can occupy 6 less. Bytes greatly reduce the address overhead of the MAC header.
步骤102、将所述MAC包头和MAC帧体封装在PPDU中;Step 102: Encapsulate the MAC header and the MAC frame body in a PPDU.
步骤103、将所述PPDU发送给至少一个站点STA。Step 103: Send the PPDU to at least one station STA.
AP将封装了MAC包头和MAC帧体的PPDU发送出去,该PPDU可以被至少一个STA接收到。The AP sends the PPDU encapsulating the MAC header and the MAC frame body, and the PPDU can be received by at least one STA.
本实施例,通过生成MAC包头,对MAC包头占用的字节数进行压缩,减少了MAC包头的地址开销,提高***效率。In this embodiment, by generating a MAC header, the number of bytes occupied by the MAC header is compressed, which reduces the address overhead of the MAC header and improves system efficiency.
下面采用几个具体的实施例,对图3所示方法实施例的技术方案进行详细说明。The technical solutions of the method embodiment shown in FIG. 3 are described in detail below by using several specific embodiments.
图4是PPDU的一个帧结构示意图,如图4所示,本实施例是下行PPDU的帧格式,在PPDU的信令部分HE-SIGB中可以包括被调度的STA的关联标识(associated identity,简称:AID)或组标识(group identity,简称:GID),图4中被调度的STA包括STA1、STA2、STA3,HE-SIGB中包括这些被调度的STA的AID,且指示每个被调度的STA在某个频段的时频资源上接收下行数据(图中通过方框内的花纹表示不同的频段),MAC包头中的地址部分不包括RA(地址1),只包括TA(地址2)。FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of a frame structure of a PPDU. As shown in FIG. 4, this embodiment is a frame format of a downlink PPDU, and the signaling part of the PPDU may include an associated identity of the STA to be scheduled. :AID) or group identity (GID), the scheduled STAs in FIG. 4 include STA1, STA2, and STA3, and the AIDs of these scheduled STAs are included in the HE-SIGB, and each scheduled STA is indicated. The downlink data is received on the time-frequency resources of a certain frequency band (the patterns in the block indicate different frequency bands in the figure), and the address part in the MAC header does not include RA (address 1), and only includes TA (address 2).
AID在一个基本服务集(Basic Service Set,简称:BSS)内是STA的唯一标识信息,多个STA在接收到PPDU后,可以先根据HE-SIGB中被调度的STA的AID确定自身是否属于其中;一个BSS中只包括一个AP,因此BSS的标识(BSSID)可以作为其包括的AP的地址标识,即在AP发送的PPDU中的TA可以用BSSID表示(TA=BSSID),STA可以在认为自身被调度后,再根据MAC包头中的地址部分的TA确定是哪个BSS中的AP发出该PPDU,结合自身所属的BSSID就可以唯一确定出AP指定的实际接收STA是否为自己,进而确定是否需要对该PPDU进行解调。The AID is a unique identification information of the STA in a Basic Service Set (BSS). After receiving the PPDU, multiple STAs may first determine whether they belong to the STA according to the STA of the STA in the HE-SIGB. A BSS includes only one AP, so the BSS identifier (BSSID) can be used as the address identifier of the AP it includes. That is, the TA in the PPDU sent by the AP can be represented by the BSSID (TA=BSSID), and the STA can consider itself. After being scheduled, it is determined according to the TA of the address part in the MAC packet header, which AP in the BSS sends the PPDU, and the BSSID to which it belongs can be used to uniquely determine whether the actual receiving STA specified by the AP is itself, and then determine whether it is necessary. The PPDU is demodulated.
图5是PPDU的另一个帧结构示意图,如图5所示,本实施例是下行 PPDU的帧格式,在PPDU的信令部分HE-SIGB中可以包括被调度的STA的AID或GID,图5中被调度的STA包括STA1、STA2、STA3,HE-SIGB中包括这些被调度的STA的AID,且指示每个被调度的STA在某个频段的时频资源上接收下行数据(图中通过方框内的花纹表示不同的频段),MAC包头中的地址部分不包括TA(地址2),只包括RA(地址1),在分配给各被调度的STA的频段中对应指示出接收的STA。FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of another frame structure of a PPDU. As shown in FIG. 5, this embodiment is a downlink. The frame format of the PPDU may include the AID or GID of the scheduled STA in the signaling part HE-SIGB of the PPDU. The scheduled STAs in FIG. 5 include STA1, STA2, and STA3, and the scheduled STAs are included in the HE-SIGB. AID, and indicating that each scheduled STA receives downlink data on a time-frequency resource of a certain frequency band (the pattern in the box indicates a different frequency band), and the address part in the MAC header does not include the TA (address 2) ), only RA (address 1) is included, and the received STA is indicated in the frequency band allocated to each scheduled STA.
AID在一个BSS内是STA的唯一标识信息,多个STA在接收到PPDU后,可以先根据HE-SIGB中被调度的STA的AID确定自身是否属于其中;STA可以在认为自身被调度后,再根据MAC包头中的地址部分的RA结合自身的MAC地址唯一确定出AP指定的实际接收STA是否为自己,进而确定是否需要对该PPDU进行解调。The AID is the unique identification information of the STA in a BSS. After receiving the PPDU, the multiple STAs may first determine whether they belong to the STA according to the scheduled AID of the STA in the HE-SIGB; the STA may consider that it is scheduled, and then The RA according to the address part of the MAC packet header is uniquely determined by the MAC address of the MAC header to determine whether the actual receiving STA specified by the AP is itself, and further determines whether the PPDU needs to be demodulated.
图6是PPDU的再一个帧结构示意图,如图6所示,本实施例是下行PPDU的部分帧格式,在PPDU的信令部分HE-SIGB中可以包括被调度的STA的部分关联标识(Paritial Associated identity,简称:PAID),图6中被调度的STA包括STA1、STA2、STA3,HE-SIGB中包括这些被调度的STA的PAID,且指示每个被调度的STA在某个频段的时频资源上接收下行数据(图中通过方框内的花纹表示不同的频段),MAC包头中的地址部分不包括TA(地址2),只包括RA(地址1),在分配给各被调度的STA的频段中对应指示出接收的STA。FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of another frame structure of a PPDU. As shown in FIG. 6, this embodiment is a partial frame format of a downlink PPDU, and the signaling part HE-SIGB of the PPDU may include a partial association identifier of the scheduled STA (Paritial). Associated identity (abbreviated as: PAID), the scheduled STAs in FIG. 6 include STA1, STA2, and STA3, and the HE-SIGB includes the PAIDs of the scheduled STAs, and indicates the time-frequency of each scheduled STA in a certain frequency band. The downlink data is received on the resource (the pattern in the box indicates different frequency bands), the address part in the MAC header does not include TA (address 2), and only RA (address 1) is included, which is allocated to each scheduled STA. The corresponding frequency band indicates the STA that is receiving.
PAID在一个BSS内是STA的标识信息,由于PAID并不唯一,因此可能有多个STA(甚至同一个BSS中也有两个以上STA)在接收到PPDU后,根据HE-SIGB中被调度的STA的PAID确定自身是属于其中的;此时STA可以在认为自身被调度后,再根据MAC包头中的地址部分的RA结合自身的MAC地址唯一确定出AP指定的实际接收STA是否为自己,进而确定是否需要对该PPDU进行解调。The PAID is the identification information of the STA in a BSS. Since the PAID is not unique, there may be multiple STAs (or even more than two STAs in the same BSS). After receiving the PPDU, according to the STAs scheduled in the HE-SIGB. The PAID determines that it belongs to it; at this time, the STA can determine whether the actual receiving STA specified by the AP is self-determined according to the RA of the address part in the MAC header and the MAC address of the MAC header in the MAC header. Whether the PPDU needs to be demodulated.
上述图4~图6所示实施例中,多个STA在收到PPDU之后可以先根据HE-SIGA中的基本服务集颜色(BSS color)进行一次初筛,若某个STA判断HE-SIGA中的BSS color不是自己的,表示该PPDU不属于自身所属的BSS,则该STA直接丢弃该PPDU,不再对其进行解调。In the foregoing embodiment shown in FIG. 4 to FIG. 6, after receiving the PPDU, the plurality of STAs may first perform primary screening according to the basic service set color (BSS color) in the HE-SIGA, if a certain STA determines the HE-SIGA. The BSS color is not its own, indicating that the PPDU does not belong to the BSS to which it belongs, and the STA directly discards the PPDU and does not demodulate it.
图7是PPDU的第四个帧结构示意图,如图7所示,当MAC帧体包 含多个子帧时,AP相应的生成用于指示多个子帧的MAC包头,每个子帧包含一个MAC包头,AP将多个子帧对应的MAC包头和MAC帧体封装在下行聚合媒体访问控制协议数据单元(Aggregated Mac Protocol Data Unit,简称:AMPDU)中,该AMPDU中对应每个子帧的MAC包头中的地址部分可以不包括TA,只包括RA;或者,可以不包括RA,只包括TA;或者,可以在第一个子帧的MAC包头中的地址部分不包括RA,只包括TA,而其他子帧的MAC包头中的地址部分则TA和RA都不包括;或者,可以在第一个子帧的MAC包头中的地址部分不包括TA,只包括RA,而其他子帧的MAC包头中的地址部分则TA和RA都不包括。图7中是以AMPDU的所有子帧的MAC包头中的地址部分不包括TA为示例。7 is a schematic diagram of a fourth frame structure of a PPDU, as shown in FIG. When a plurality of subframes are included, the AP generates a MAC header for indicating a plurality of subframes, and each subframe includes a MAC header. The AP encapsulates the MAC header and the MAC frame corresponding to the multiple subframes in the downlink aggregation medium access control protocol data. In the Aggregated Mac Protocol Data Unit (AMPDU), the address part of the MAC header corresponding to each subframe in the AMPDU may not include the TA, and only includes the RA; or may include the RA, and only includes the TA; or The address part in the MAC header of the first subframe may not include the RA, and only the TA is included, and the address part in the MAC header of the other subframes is not included in the TA and the RA; or, the first subframe may be included. The address part of the MAC header does not include the TA, but only the RA, and the address part of the MAC header of other subframes is not included in the TA and RA. In FIG. 7, the address portion in the MAC header of all subframes of the AMPDU does not include the TA as an example.
进一步的,AP也可以指定一种MAC包头的格式,在不同子帧的MAC包头中的地址部分可以压缩掉不同的地址信息,例如,奇数编号的子帧的MAC包头中的地址部分不包括RA,偶数编号的子帧的MAC包头中的地址部分不包括TA。Further, the AP may also specify a format of a MAC header, and the address part in the MAC header of different subframes may compress different address information. For example, the address part in the MAC header of the odd-numbered subframe does not include the RA. The address portion in the MAC header of the even-numbered subframe does not include the TA.
