  • FIG. 8 is a detailed flowchart of a cell selection method in a multi-carrier communication system according to Embodiment 6. As shown in FIG. 8, the method includes the following steps: Step 801: A UE initiates an RRC connection on CC1, and the base station is in an RRC connection. The information of the CC2, CC3, and CC4 and the packet information are configured to the UE in the reconfiguration message.
  • CC1 is the primary serving cell, which is group 1 and CC2-CC4 is the secondary serving cell, which is group 2; the base station configures random access resources in CC2 for uplink synchronization in group 2. Initiating a RACH procedure; the base station and the UE consider the cell configured with the random access resource as the receiving TA control element and/or the time reference cell; Step 802: Since Group 2 and Group 1 use different TAs for timing adjustment, then Group 2 When the secondary cell in the first activation is activated, at least one cell needs to perform an initial uplink synchronization process.
  • CC2 is configured with random access resources, then the base station needs to activate CC2 so that the UE uses the random access resources on CC2 for uplink synchronization, and the base station sends the secondary cell activation MAC control element to activate CC2, CC3, CC4;
  • Step 803 The UE is applying the auxiliary CC2 is activated after the cell control element, and the initial uplink synchronization process is completed on CC2.
  • CC3 and CC4 also enter the uplink synchronization state, the UE can perform uplink transmission on CC2, CC3, and CC4, and CC1 can serve as the time reference cell of these cells;
  • Step 804 The base station sends the UE to the UE on CC1.
  • the time adjustment control element of 2 indicates that the control element is sent to group 2 by the cell identifier in the control element.
  • Step 805 The UE receives the ⁇ control element on the CC1, and reads the identifier carried in the control element to find that the control element is used for the time adjustment of the group 2. Then, the group 2 applies the time adjustment ⁇ control element.
  • CC1 acts as a cell that receives the ⁇ control element.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif de sélection de cellules dans un système de communication à porteuses multiples, le procédé consistant en ce qui suit : pour un paquet comprenant uniquement une cellule secondaire, un équipement utilisateur (UE) et/ou un eNB sélectionne une cellule pour recevoir un élément de commande d'avance temporelle (TA) et/ou une cellule de référence temporelle respectivement pour chaque paquet. La présente invention permet de résoudre le problème de la technique actuelle concernant la façon dont la cellule secondaire dans le paquet comprenant uniquement une cellule secondaire sélectionne la cellule de référence temporelle, après qu'une pluralité de paquets TA ont été introduits, et/ou la façon de sélectionner la cellule pour recevoir l'élément de commande TA. La solution est adaptée à l'exigence de multi-TA et de multi-paquets dans le système de communication à porteuses multiples, et permet une commande TA plus précise pour chaque paquet, ce qui permet aux données de liaison montante de chaque UE de tomber dans la fenêtre temporelle de réception de l'eNB en arrivant au niveau de l'eNB, réduisant ainsi en outre la probabilité de perte des données de liaison montante, et améliorant également la performance du service de l'ensemble du système.
