本申请涉及通信技术领域,例如涉及一种控制字的传输方法、装置和计算机可读存储介质。
背景技术
在5G通信***中,为应对新型组网场景所要求的低时延、高带宽及大数据量传输等要求,在传统前传接口:通用公用射频接口(Common Public Radio Interface,CPRI)协议中引入以太网前传接口协议,比如以太网传输射频信号(Radio over Ethernet,RoE)协议、增强型CPRI(enhanced-CPRI,eCPRI)协议等。与CPRI协议相比,以太网前传接口协议采用控制字和同相正交(Inphase Quadrature,IQ)数据分离、以太网报文独立封装的方式进行传输,可以更灵活地支持5G组网场景的要求。在一种如星型、链型等复合组网场景中同时存在以太网前传接口协议(RoE协议或eCPRI协议)和CPRI协议。
在实际应用场景中,射频处理单元控制器(Radio Equipment Controller,REC)和主射频处理单元(Radio Equipment,RE)之间使用RoE协议或eCPRI协议,主RE(上联口采用以太网前传接口协议,下联口采用CPRI前传接口协议,常用于和REC连接)和从RE(上联口和下联口均采用CPRI前传接口协议)以及从RE和从RE之间使用CRPI协议。REC在和多级从RE传递控制字时,需要主RE完成RoE协议或者eCPRI协议向CPRI协议的转换,由于时分复用控制字(在不同超帧的相同控制字位置处发送不同的控制字)的存在,REC和主RE之间的控制字报文在时分复用控制字有效的超帧内要求严格按照定时收发,且每个超帧都需要进行处理,这对REC和主RE的定时精度要求较高,REC和主RE的硬件电路实现复杂度极高,而且占用较多的报文收发流量。
因此,在5G通信***中,如何有效地满足新型组网场景的要求,提供一种定时精度要求低、硬件电路实现难度低以及控制字报文流量小的实现方法,是本领域技术人员亟待解决的技术问题。

具体实施方式
下文中将结合附图对本申请的实施例进行说明。在附图的流程图示出的步骤可以在诸如一组计算机可执行指令的计算机***中执行。并且,虽然在流程图中示出了逻辑顺序,但是在一些情况下,可以以不同于此处的顺序执行所示出或描述的步骤。
在5G通信***中,为满足新型组网场景的要求,以太网前传接口作为上下行数据传输中最重要的一环节,以太网前传接口协议作为分离传输控制字和IQ数据的新型传输协议常被应用于REC和主RE之间,主RE和从RE以及从RE和从RE之间,因此继续使用CPRI协议是为了更好的利用现有资源,一种常用的连接关系图如图1所示。
本申请提供的方法是在解决REC和主RE之间传输控制字定时精度高、硬件电路实现难度高以及控制字报文流量大等问题的前提下,将控制字净荷中的控制字按照CPRI协议发送给多级从RE,下面通过实施例对本申请的实现步骤进行说明。
实施例一:控制字的传输方法一
本实施例的控制字的传输方法主要应用于REC到RE的控制字的传输方向。
REC和主RE之间采用以太网前传接口协议封装的报文传输方式,如控制字报文包含:标准以太网报文封装头(如媒体访问控制(Media Access Control,MAC)、网际协议(Internet Protocol,IP)、用户数据报协议(User Datagram Protocol,UDP)等)、以太网前传接口协议封装头(如RoE、eCPRI等)和控制字净荷。本申请提供的方法是在解决REC和主RE之间传输控制字定时精度高、硬件电路实现难度高以及控制字报文流量大等问题的前提下,将控制字净荷中的控制字按照CPRI协议发送给多级从RE。
如图2所示,本申请提供了一种控制字的传输方法,包括:
步骤201:获取控制字描述符信息表,所述控制字描述符信息表用于指示一个或多个控制字的属性信息。
在一种示例性实施例中,所述控制字描述符信息表由REC和主RE通过信令协商决定。
在一种示例性实施例中,所述属性信息包括:时分复用属性E、位宽W、深度D、在CPRI帧中的基本帧号L、在CPRI帧中的起始超帧号S。
需要说明的是,所述描述符信息表的深度和控制字的个数需保持一致。
在一种示例性实施例中,所述步骤201包括如下步骤:
步骤2010:获取控制字净荷中控制字的个数N。
其中,N的取值范围决定于控制字净荷的个数P、控制字净荷中时分复用控制字占比以及每个时分复用控制字的深度D与位宽W(单位可以为比特(bit))。控制字净荷数据位宽为M(单位可以为字节(byte))。在一种应用实例中,所有时分复用控制字的深度D=8,位宽W=64,非时分复用控制字的位宽W=64,控制字净荷位宽M=8。
所述控制字个数N的取值范围如下:
a、当控制字净荷中全部为非时分复用控制字时:
N=P;
b、当控制字净荷中同时包含时分复用控制字和非时分复用控制字时:
P/D<N<P;
c、当控制字净荷中全部为时分复用控制字时:
N=P/D=P/8。
步骤2011:配置N个控制字对应的描述符信息;其中,N个描述符配置信息字段含义如图3所示,且N个描述符配置信息位段均相同,所代表的含义:
时分复用属性E:用于指示控制字净荷中所对应的控制字是否为时分复用控制字;
深度D:用于指示控制字净荷中控制字的深度;
位宽W:用于指示控制字净荷中控制字的位宽;
坐标L:用于指示控制字净荷中控制字在超帧中的坐标(即基本帧号);
起始超帧号S:用于指示控制字净荷中控制字在无线帧中开始的超帧号;
当所述控制字描述符信息表中时分复用属性E表示一个控制字为非时分复用控制字时,该控制字只需要关注表中的位宽W以及坐标L即可。
对于所述控制字描述符信息表中多个参数的获取,可以由REC和主RE之间通过信令在建链之前协商完成,保证发送和接收方向使用的参数一致性。
步骤202:根据所述控制字描述符信息表从控制字净荷中提取控制字。
在一种示例性实施例中,所述步骤202,包括:
确定所述控制字净荷中控制字的个数N,每一个控制字包括D个时分复用控制字或一个非时分复用控制字;
对于i从1至N,i为1至N之间的自然数,循环执行以下步骤:
根据所述控制字描述符信息表确定当前控制字是否为时分复用控制字;
如果当前控制字为非时分复用控制字,从所述控制字净荷中提取出W位宽数据作为一个非时分复用控制字,并根据所述控制字描述符信息表确定当前控制字在CPRI帧中的基本帧号;
如果当前控制字为时分复用控制字,从所述控制字净荷中提取出D*W位宽数据作为D个时分复用控制字,并根据所述控制字描述符信息表确定当前控制字的深度、当前控制字在CPRI帧中的基本帧号、当前控制字在CPRI帧中的起始超帧号。
需要说明的是,在逐个提取控制字时需要按照控制字净荷的排列顺序,并将所提取出来的控制字以及对应的信息表参数进行存储。当提取出的控制字为非时分复用控制字时,需要将时分复用属性E以及坐标L一并送给CPRI控制字发送器中的存储模块;当提取出的控制字为时分复用控制字时,需要将时分复用属性E、深度D、坐标L和起始超帧号S一并送给CPRI控制字发送器中的 存储模块。从第一个控制字开始,循环执行上述提取操作,直至提取出最后一个控制字。
图4为本申请的一种控制字净荷中提取控制字的过程示意图,其中D=8,W=64,M=8,控制字净荷中第1、2个数据为非时分复用控制字,第3~10个以及第m~m+7个数据为时分复用控制字,按照上述描述步骤可提取出CW_T1和CW_Tm等这些时分复用控制字,以及CW_nT0、CW_nT1等这些非时分复用控制字。
步骤203:将提取的控制字填充至CPRI控制字发送器。
在一种示例性实施例中,所述步骤203,包括:
对于非时分复用控制字,在每个超帧中基本帧号为L的基本帧处发送;
对于时分复用控制字,在起始超帧号为S、终止超帧号为(S+D-1)之间的每个超帧中,基本帧号为L的基本帧处发送。
对于非时分复用控制字,每个超帧发送相同的数据;对于时分复用控制字,在时分复用控制字有效的超帧内,每个超帧发送不同的数据。
如图5所示,非时分复用控制字在每个超帧中基本帧号L处发送;
时分复用控制字按照如下位置发送:
当超帧号为S时,在基本帧号为L位置处,将D个时分复用控制字的第一个在当前基本帧中发送;
当超帧号为(S+1)时,在基本帧号为L位置处,将D个时分复用控制字的第二个在当前基本帧中发送;
……
当超帧号为(S+D-1)时,在基本帧号为L位置处,将D个时分复用控制字的最后一个在当前基本帧中发送;
按照上述发送方法将当前无线帧中所有需要发送的控制字(非时分复用控制字和时分复用控制字)发送完毕。
按照上述步骤可实现将REC向RE发送的以太网前传接口协议封装的控制字报文中的控制字按照CPRI帧格式送给多级从RE,从而实现REC和多级从RE的下行控制字下发功能。
本申请获取控制字描述符信息表,所述控制字描述符信息表用于指示一个或多个控制字的属性信息;根据所述控制字描述符信息表从控制字净荷中提取控制字;将提取的控制字填充至CPRI控制字发送器,在满足5G新型组网场景 要求的前提下,降低了REC和主RE之间高精度定时发包的要求,降低了硬件电路实现复杂度,同时,本申请不需要在每个超帧都发包,从而降低了REC和主RE之间控制字的传输流量。
实施例二:控制字的传输方法二
主RE和从RE之间采用CPRI帧格式数据传输,主RE需要将多级从RE上报给REC的控制字信息通过以太网前传接口协议报文封装形式上报。
如图6所示,本申请还提供了一种控制字的传输方法,包括:
步骤601:获取控制字描述符信息表,所述控制字描述符信息表用于指示一个或多个控制字的属性信息。
在一种示例性实施例中,所述控制字描述符信息表由REC和主RE通过信令协商决定。
在一种示例性实施例中,所述属性信息包括:时分复用属性E、位宽W、深度D、在CPRI帧中的基本帧号L、在CPRI帧中的起始超帧号S。
在一种示例性实施例中,所述步骤601包括如下步骤:
步骤6010:获取控制字净荷中控制字的个数N。
其中,N的取值范围决定于控制字净荷的个数P、控制字净荷中时分复用控制字占比以及每个时分复用控制字的深度D与位宽W(单位:bit)。控制字净荷数据位宽为M(单位:byte)。在一种应用实例中,所有时分复用控制字的深度D=8,位宽W=64,非时分复用控制字的位宽W=64,控制字净荷位宽M=8。
所述控制字个数N的取值范围如下:
a、当控制字净荷中全部为非时分复用控制字时:
N=P;
b、当控制字净荷中同时包含时分复用控制字和非时分复用控制字时:
P/D<N<P;
c、当控制字净荷中全部为时分复用控制字时:
N=P/D=P/8。
步骤6011:配置N个控制字对应的描述符信息;其中,N个描述符配置信息字段含义如图3所示,且N个描述符配置信息位段均相同,所代表的含义:
时分复用属性E:用于指示控制字净荷中所对应的控制字是否为时分复用控制字;
深度D:用于指示控制字净荷中控制字的深度;
位宽W:用于指示控制字净荷中控制字的位宽;
坐标L:用于指示控制字净荷中控制字在超帧中的坐标(即基本帧号);
起始超帧号S:用于指示控制字净荷中控制字在无线帧中开始的超帧号;
当所述控制字描述符信息表中时分复用属性E表示一个控制字为非时分复用控制字时,该控制字只需要关注表中的位宽W以及坐标L即可。
对于所述控制字描述符信息表中多个参数的获取,可以由REC和主RE之间通过信令在建链之前协商完成,保证发送和接收方向使用的参数一致性。
步骤602:根据所述控制字描述符信息表从CPRI控制字接收器中收集控制字。
在一种示例性实施例中,所述步骤602,包括:
确定所述控制字净荷中控制字的个数N,每一个控制字包括D个时分复用控制字或一个非时分复用控制字;
对于i从1至N,i为1至N之间的自然数,循环执行以下步骤:
根据所述控制字描述符信息表确定当前控制字是否为时分复用控制字;
如果当前控制字为非时分复用控制字,从当前超帧中基本帧号为L的基本帧处收集一个非时分复用控制字;
如果当前控制字为时分复用控制字,从起始超帧号为S、终止超帧号为(S+D-1)之间的每个超帧中,基本帧号为L的基本帧处收集D个时分复用控制字。
如图7所示,非时分复用控制字在当前超帧中基本帧号为L处收集;
时分复用控制字根据当前链路中的超帧号和基本帧号收集,顺序如下:
当超帧号为S时,在基本帧号为L位置处,将当前基本帧中所包含的控制字作为D个时分复用控制字中的第一个;
当超帧号为(S+1)时,在基本帧号为L位置处,将当前基本帧中所包含的控制字作为D个时分复用控制字中的第二个;
……
当超帧号为(S+D-1)时,在基本帧号为L位置处,将当前基本帧中所包含的控制字作为D个时分复用控制字中的最后一个。
按照上述收集方法将当前无线帧中所有需要收集的控制字(非时分复用控 制字和时分复用控制字)收集完毕。
步骤603:将收集的控制字填充至控制字净荷中。
在一种示例性实施例中,所述步骤603,包括:
根据所述控制字描述符信息表确定多个控制字的填充顺序;
按照所述填充顺序填充所述控制字至所述控制字净荷中,每个非时分复用控制字占用所述控制字净荷的W位宽数据,每个时分复用控制字占用所述控制字净荷的D*W位宽数据。
需要说明的是,当填充的控制字为非时分复用控制字时,非时分复用控制字占用控制字净荷的W位宽数据;当填充的控制字为时分复用控制字时,时分复用控制字占用控制字净荷的D*W位宽数据。从第一个控制字开始,循环执行上述填充操作,直至控制字净荷中填充完最后一个控制字。
图8为本申请的一种向控制字净荷中填充上报控制字的过程示意图,其中D=8,W=64,M=8,控制字净荷中第1、2个数据为非时分复用控制字,第3~10个以及第m~m+7个数据为时分复用控制字,按照上述描述步骤可将CW_nR0、CW_nR1等这些非时分复用以及CW_R1、CW_Rm这些时分复用控制字填充到控制字净荷中。
按照上述步骤可实现主RE将所有从RE上报的控制字填充到控制字净荷中,控制字净荷中内容要送给REC还需要经过以太网前传接口协议封装过程,其中以太网前传接口协议封装不在本申请所提供的方法范围内。控制字净荷只有在经过以太网前传接口协议封装之后才能送给REC,完成所有从RE控制字的上报过程。
本申请的控制字的传输方法具有如下优点:
(1)降低了传输时分复用控制字的流量。
示例性的,以整个无线帧发送十个时分复用控制字、深度D=8,位宽W=64,十个非时分复用控制字,位宽W=64,为例,与传统的控制字发送方法进行定量比较:
使用本申请的控制字的传输方法所耗费的流量:
Flow_Rate 0=Transmit_Data/Time=10.06Mbit/s;
其中,Flow_Rate 0为采用本申请定量计算出来按照以太网前传接口协议封装控制字报文的收发流量,Transmit_Data为收发数据量,Time为收发数据有效时间,在本定量计算实例中,Transmit_Data为742byte,Time为533.6微秒(us)。其中,Transmit_Data的742byte包含以太网封装头(MAC报文封装)14byte、以太网前 传接口协议封装头(RoE封装)8byte,时分复用控制字净荷640byte、非时分复用控制字净荷80byte。
使用传统的控制字发送方法所耗费的流量:
Flow_Rate 1=Transmit_Data/Time=20.82Mbit/s;
其中,Flow_Rate 1为采用传统的控制字发送方法定量计算出来按照以太网前传接口协议封装控制字报文的收发流量,Transmit_Data为收发数据量,Time为收发数据有效时间,在本定量计算实例中,Transmit_Data为182byte*8=1456byte,Time为66.7us*8=533.6us。其中,Transmit_Data的1456byte为8个超帧发送的数据量,每个超帧发送数据量为182byte,这182byte中包含以太网封装头(MAC报文封装)14byte、以太网前传接口协议封装头(RoE封装)8byte,时分复用控制字净荷80byte、非时分复用控制字净荷80byte。
通过对比可见,本申请所提供的方法可以有效降低REC和多级从RE之间传递控制字的流量,当传递的控制字报文持续时间越长,Time就会越大,本申请所提供的方法降流量效果就越好。
(2)降低了定时精度的要求,降低了硬件电路实现复杂度。
本申请所提供的方法在REC和多级从RE之间传递控制字时,并不需要严格按照超帧定时发送控制字报文,从而达到了降低定时精度的要求以及硬件电路的实现复杂度。

需要说明的是,控制字提取器901在逐个提取控制字时需要按照控制字净荷的排列顺序,并将所提取出来的控制字以及对应的信息表参数进行存储。当提取出的控制字为非时分复用控制字时,需要将时分复用属性E以及坐标L一并送给CPRI控制字发送器903中的存储模块;当提取出的控制字为时分复用控制字时,需要将时分复用属性E、深度D、坐标L和起始超帧号S一并送给CPRI 控制字发送器903中的存储模块。从第一个控制字开始,循环执行上述提取操作,直至提取出最后一个控制字。

根据所述控制字描述符信息表确定多个控制字的填充顺序;
按照所述填充顺序填充所述控制字至所述控制字净荷中,每个所述非时分复用控制字占用所述控制字净荷的W位宽数据,每个所述时分复用控制字占用所述控制字净荷的D*W位宽数据。
需要说明的是,当填充的控制字为非时分复用控制字时,非时分复用控制字占用控制字净荷的W位宽数据;当填充的控制字为时分复用控制字时,时分复用控制字占用控制字净荷的D*W位宽数据。从第一个控制字开始,所述第二填充器1003循环执行上述填充操作,直至控制字净荷中填充完最后一个控制字。
图8为本申请的一种向控制字净荷中填充上报控制字的过程示意图,其中D=8,W=64,M=8,控制字净荷中第1、2个数据为非时分复用控制字,第3~10个以及第m~m+7个数据为时分复用控制字,按照上述描述步骤可将CW_nR0、CW_nR1等这些非时分复用以及CW_R1、CW_Rm这些时分复用控制字填充到控制字净荷中。
所述第二填充器1003按照上述步骤可实现主RE将所有从RE上报的控制字填充到控制字净荷中,控制字净荷中内容要送给REC还需要经过以太网前传接口协议封装过程,其中以太网前传接口协议封装不在本申请所提供的方法范围内。控制字净荷只有在经过以太网前传接口协议封装之后才能送给REC,完成所有从RE时分复用控制字的上报过程。
