A kind of method that improves wireless communication up-link service quality
Technical field
The present invention relates to the communications field, relate in particular to a kind of method that improves the wireless communication system up-link service quality.
Background technology
WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access) system is based on the broadband cellular wireless communication system of CDMA, and the WCDMA system supports a greater variety of types of service and high data rate traffic transmittability more.HSUPA (High Speed Uplink Packet Access) is the enhancement techniques of WCDMA system to the uplink ability.The HSUPA technology has comprised shorter TTI (Transmission Time Interval), scheduler and HARQ (HybridAutomatic Retransmission reQuest) based on Node B, new transmission channel E-DCII (EnhancedDedicate Channel) has adopted these key technologies, the HSUPA system can be significantly improved on the transmission performance of uplink service than traditional WCDMA version, the increase of nearly 50%-70% on power system capacity, the minimizing of 20%-55% is arranged, 50% the increase of on the user grouping calling flow, having an appointment in the delay of end-to-end grouping bag.Use the WCDMA system of HSUPA technology, comprised CN (Core Network), RNC (Radio Network Controller), Node B and UE (User Equipment).Wherein comprised some sub-districts (Cells) among the Node B, the sub-district is to be the common radio resources of UE service in the same area in the system, in HSUPA, by the sub-district can measuring system the ascending load degree.Node B is that unit finishes with the sub-district to the scheduling of UE.In HSUPA, the function that customer service is controlled and dispatched has been placed among the Node B, by Node B regularly or the service dispatching request (Scheduling Information) that sends according to Event triggered according to the user, seizure condition (Buffer Occupancy Status) comprising the customer service buffering area, the priority level of Business Stream (Priority), the residue transmitted power of UE (Uplink Power Headroom), and according to the uplink interference of sub-district and the load disposal ability of base station, different UE is sent different authorization command (Grants), UE is according to the authorization command of Node B, in the E-TFC table (Enhanced Transport Format Combination Table) of the pre-configured UE of giving of RNC, select suitable transformat to merge (Enhanced Transport Format Combination), and use the pairing power excursion of this E-TFC (Power Offset), in a Transmission Time Interval (TTI), send and the data of authorizing corresponding size to NodeB.The functional structure of HSUPA system is with reference to figure 2.
In HSUPA, authorize and be divided into absolute grant AG (Absolute Grants) and relative authorization RG (Relative Grants), AG has specified the absolute size that allows the data volume pairing transmitting power ratio that UE can send, be also referred to as authorization of service (Serving Grants), and RG has specified and has allowed the relative size that UE can the transmitting power ratio, this relative size is to express with the mode of step-length, and its value can be UP (improving the scheduling amount of a step-length), DOWN (reducing the scheduling amount of a step-length) and HOLD (keeping existing scheduling amount).
The WCDMA system is a multi-user's a cdma wireless system, because in the sub-district of WCDMA system, the time of up UE emission is asynchronous, caused the nonorthogonality of up send channel between the different UEs, also just caused up the interfering with each other of transmitting of different UEs, therefore exist up UE send channel number many more in the sub-district, or the transmitting power of UE big more (SG is big more), the uplink interference of system is just big more, and this annoyance level is represented with RTWP (Received Total Wideband Power).The operation of WCDMA system must remain on up interference within the rational thresholding, otherwise system will collapse because of the power ramp of disturbing overload to cause or serious problems such as a large amount of UE call drops.
When guaranteeing that the system uplink load is no more than thresholding, also need to reach this type of professional qos requirement (Qualityof Service) with certain business that guarantees UE for each UE distributes suitable wireless transmission resources.In the standard that WCDMA normal structure 3GPP (3rd Generation PartnershipProject) formulates, professional QoS can represent by MBR (Maximum Bit Rate), GBR (Guaranteed Bit Rate), parameters such as Transfer Delay, Traffic Handling Priority, and when business is initiated, dispose to RNC by CN.
The HSUPA scheduler has been controlled data transmission rate and the transmitting power of each UE in the sub-district by AG and RG just, guarantees that the uplink interference of the sub-district that these UE loads produce can not surpass interference threshold.Simultaneously according to the actual conditions of UE, dynamically determine and data transmission rate and the transmitting power (being SG) of bringing in constant renewal in each UE guarantees that each UE goes up the QoS of bearer service the transfer of data demand.
In the standard of present 3GPP (25.413), the QoS information of business need is configured among the RNC by CN, and HSUPA guarantees that the work of QoS of survice finally need be realized by the scheduling feature that is positioned on the Node B.At present RNC is by the NBAP signaling (Node B Application Part) of Iub (the Interface between RNC and Node B): RADIO LINK RECONFIGURATIONPREPARE/RADIO LINK RECONFIGURATION REQUEST/RADIO LINK SETUPREQUEST/RADIO LINK ADDITION has passed to the HSUPA scheduler that is positioned at Node B with the QoS information (comprising processing priority, MBR, GBR) of partial service, and these information do not comprise an important information of QoS of survice: Transfer Delay.The packet SDU (Service Data Unit) that Transfer Delay has defined a business is transferred to the time delay that arrives between the purpose from request.This parameter has been reacted the requirement of certain business to the propagation delay time of SDU, and this is an important indicator that influences QoS of survice.
Therefore according to the definition of present 3GPP standard, the HSUPA scheduler can't obtain the QoS information about service delay, and this will cause the HSUPA scheduling can't effectively guarantee the quality of service requirements of certain business to the propagation delay time of SDU.
Summary of the invention
