In this application. Technical field

本发明涉及移动通信系统, 尤其涉及一种能够实现载波聚合 的数据传输方法及装置。 背景技术  The present invention relates to a mobile communication system, and more particularly to a data transmission method and apparatus capable of implementing carrier aggregation. Background technique

为了进一步提高移动通信系统的频谱效率和用户吞吐量, 在 LTE-A (Long Term Evolution - Advanced , LTE后续演进)中引入了 载波聚合(Carrier Aggregation , CA)的概念。 所谓载波聚合, 是指 UE(User Equipment , 用户设备)可以同时使用宏基站(Macro eNB , MeNB)和 /或 小基站(Small eNB , SeNB)的 多 个成 员 载 波 (Component Carrier , CC)进行上下行通信, 从而支持高速数据传 输。 一般来说, 如图 1所示, 宏基站的小区覆盖范围比较大, 而小 基站的小区覆盖范围相对小。 根据成员载波所对应的基站, LTE 系统的载波聚合大致可分为基站内聚合和基站间聚合, 而基站间 聚合又可进一步分为宏基站间聚合和宏基站与小基站间聚合(以 下简称为宏小基站间聚合)。 其中, 基站内聚合由于只受一个基站 控制, 实现起来相对简单, 已有相关技术文献。 然而, 目前尚未 出现关于基站间聚合的技术文献, 尤其对于宏小基站间聚合, 如 何分流数据是亟待研究的问题。  In order to further improve the spectrum efficiency and user throughput of the mobile communication system, the concept of Carrier Aggregation (CA) is introduced in LTE-A (Long Term Evolution - Advanced). The so-called carrier aggregation means that the UE (User Equipment) can simultaneously use the component carrier (CC) of the macro base station (Macro eNB, MeNB) and/or the small base station (Small eNB, SeNB) for uplink and downlink. Communication to support high speed data transmission. Generally, as shown in Figure 1, the cell coverage of the macro base station is relatively large, and the cell coverage of the small base station is relatively small. According to the base station corresponding to the component carrier, the carrier aggregation of the LTE system can be roughly divided into intra-base station aggregation and inter-base station aggregation, and the inter-base station aggregation can be further divided into macro base station aggregation and macro base station and small base station aggregation (hereinafter referred to as Macro small base station aggregation). Among them, the aggregation in the base station is relatively simple to implement because it is controlled by only one base station, and related technical documents exist. However, there is no technical literature on inter-base station aggregation, especially for macro-small base station aggregation. How to divert data is an urgent problem to be studied.

例如, 从协议栈的角度来看, 可基于 PDCP (Packet Data Convergence Protocol , 数据包汇聚协议) SDU(service data unit , 业务数据单元)、 PDCP PDU(packet data unit , 包数据单元)、 RLC(Radio Link Control , 无线链路控制) SDU、 RLC PDU、 MAC(Medium Access Control , 媒体接入控制) SDU或者 MAC PDU 等数据包形式来进行数据分流。 其中, 基于 RLC PDU分流可能相 对容易实现。 如图 2a所示, 基于 RLC PDU分流包括: 对于下行, 在 RLC层处理完数据之后, 或者 RLC层分配好 RLC PDU序列号之 后移交给下一层之前, 宏基站将部分 RLC PDU转发给小基站, 然 后经过小基站将 RLC PDU发送给用户设备; 对于上行, 用户设备 将部分 RLC PDU发送到小基站并将其余部分 RLC PDU发送到宏 基站, 然后小基站将从用户设备接收的 RLC PDU转发到宏基站进 行合并后, 一起递交到高层进行处理。 对于基于其它数据包形式 进行的数据分流, 过程与上述类似, 只是数据包形式不同。 For example, from the perspective of the protocol stack, it may be based on a PDCP (Packet Data Convergence Protocol) SDU (service data unit), a PDCP PDU (packet data unit), RLC (Radio Link Control) SDU, RLC PDU, MAC (Medium Access Control) SDU or MAC PDU, etc., for data distribution. Among them, splitting based on RLC PDUs may be relatively easy to implement. As shown in FIG. 2a, the RLC PDU offloading includes: For downlink, the macro base station forwards part of the RLC PDU to the small base station after the RLC layer processes the data, or after the RLC layer allocates the RLC PDU sequence number and hands over to the next layer. And then sending the RLC PDU to the user equipment through the small base station; for the uplink, the user equipment sends part of the RLC PDU to the small base station and sends the remaining part of the RLC PDU to the macro base station, and then the small base station forwards the RLC PDU received from the user equipment to After the macro base stations are merged, they are submitted to the upper layer for processing. For data offloading based on other packet forms, the process is similar to the above, except that the packet format is different.

然而, 在如上进行数据分流时, 由于宏基站和小基站两侧的 信道环境和 /或发送速率基本不同, 加之经由小基站转发需要一定 的通信时间, 这使得: 对于下行, 用户设备针对宏基站所检测出 的丟失包可能是宏基站转发给小基站、 而小基站尚未发送到用户 设备的数据包; 而对于上行, 宏基站针对用户设备所检测出的丟 失包可能是用户设备转发给小基站、 而小基站尚未发送到宏基站 的数据包。 这显然会影响整个系统的数据传输效率的提升, 尤其 在 RLC实体以 UM或 AM模式进行数据传输的情况下。  However, when the data is offloaded as above, since the channel environment and/or the transmission rate on both sides of the macro base station and the small base station are basically different, and the forwarding through the small base station requires a certain communication time, this makes: For the downlink, the user equipment targets the macro base station. The detected lost packet may be a data packet that the macro base station forwards to the small base station and the small base station has not sent to the user equipment; and for the uplink, the lost packet detected by the macro base station for the user equipment may be forwarded by the user equipment to the small base station. And the small base station has not sent the data packet to the macro base station. This obviously affects the data transmission efficiency of the entire system, especially in the case of RLC entities transmitting data in UM or AM mode.

具言之, 在 UM模式下, UM RLC接收实体基于 UMD PDU序 列号对相关窗口进行维护、 更新、 重复检测和重排序等功能。 如 图 2b所示, 重排序窗口的上边界为当前接收到的 UMD PDU的序列 号加 1 , 并用 VR(H)表示。 重排序窗口的下边界是由上边界减去重 排序窗口大小后得到的, 并没有专门的记号。 整个 UM RLC接收 实体仅维护一个重排序定时器, 而不是针对每个数据包启动重排 序定时器。 在重排序计时器更新时, 重排序定时器控制的新的上 边界是当前接收到的 UMD PDU的最大序列号, 而下边界是之前上 下边界内第一个没有正确接收的 UMD PDU的序列号。 In other words, in the UM mode, the UM RLC receiving entity performs functions such as maintaining, updating, repeatedly detecting, and reordering related windows based on the UMD PDU sequence number. As shown in Figure 2b, the upper boundary of the reordering window is incremented by 1 for the sequence number of the currently received UMD PDU and is represented by VR(H). The lower bound of the reordering window is obtained by subtracting the size of the reordering window from the upper bound, and there is no special token. Instead of starting a reordering timer for each packet, the entire UM RLC receiving entity maintains only one reordering timer. When the reordering timer is updated, the new upper boundary of the reordering timer control is the maximum sequence number of the currently received UMD PDU, and the lower boundary is before The serial number of the first UMD PDU that was not correctly received in the lower bound.

如果直接按照上述现有的 U M模式进行宏小基站间聚合的数 据分流传输, 则由于宏基站和小基站两侧的信道状况和 /或发送速 率的不同, 有可能导致用户设备在重排序定时器内检测出的丟失 包是宏基站或小基站根本还没有发出的数据包, 从而导致较高的 丟包率。  If the data split transmission between the macro and small base stations is performed directly according to the above existing UM mode, the user equipment may be in the reordering timer due to different channel conditions and/or transmission rates on both sides of the macro base station and the small base station. The lost packet detected within the macro base station or the small base station is not yet sent out at all, resulting in a high packet loss rate.

此外, 在 AM模式下, 如图 2c所示, 接收窗口的下边界是当前 接收到的连续多个 AMD PDU中序列号最高的 AMD PDU的序列号 紧接着的下一个序列号的值, 并用 VR(R)表示。 接收窗口的上边 界是下边界加上窗口大小。如果新接收的 AMD PDU位于接收窗口 之外或者该 PDU分段已收到过, 则丟弃, 否则放入緩存处理。 AM RLC接收实体基于重排序定时器进行重排序操作, 用一定变量表 示每次重排序定时器启动时对应的上边界和下边界, 并且对该序 列号范围内的空隙统一对待。 该序列号范围内所有空隙处的 PDU 在定时器超时前都收到后, 则停止该定时器。 如果在定时器超时 后, 如果还有空隙, 则对后面的空隙重新启动重排序定时器, 并 记录相应的重排序等待的上边界和下边界、 即更新 VR(MS)和 VR(X)„  In addition, in the AM mode, as shown in FIG. 2c, the lower boundary of the receiving window is the value of the next sequence number immediately following the sequence number of the AMD PDU with the highest sequence number among the consecutive consecutive AMD PDUs received, and uses VR. (R) indicates. The upper bound of the receive window is the lower bound plus the window size. If the newly received AMD PDU is outside the receiving window or the PDU segment has been received, it is discarded, otherwise it is put into the buffer processing. The AM RLC receiving entity performs a reordering operation based on the reordering timer, and uses a certain variable to represent the upper and lower boundaries corresponding to each reordering timer start, and uniformly treats the gaps within the range of the serial number. The PDU at all gaps in the sequence number is received before the timer expires, then the timer is stopped. If there is a gap after the timer expires, restart the reordering timer for the following gap, and record the upper and lower boundaries of the corresponding reordering wait, ie update VR(MS) and VR(X)

如果直接按照上述现有的 AM模式进行宏小基站间聚合的数 据分流传输, 则由于宏基站和小基站两侧的信道状况和 /或发送速 率的不同, 低速率一方可能导致整个重排序定时器的上边界和下 边界更新緩慢并出现接收窗口卡窗现象, 从而使得速率较高的一 方也无法以较高速率发送, 最终导致数据传输效率无法提升。 发明内容  If data split transmission between macro and small base stations is directly performed according to the above existing AM mode, the low rate side may cause the entire reordering timer due to different channel conditions and/or transmission rates on both sides of the macro base station and the small base station. The upper and lower boundaries are updated slowly and the window of the receiving window appears, so that the higher rate party cannot be sent at a higher rate, and the data transmission efficiency cannot be improved. Summary of the invention

The method is such that carrier aggregation, especially macro-base station carrier aggregation, can not affect the improvement of data transmission efficiency.

如背景技术和发明内容部分所述, 本发明主要旨在于提供一 种数据传输方法、 特别是在载波聚合情况下的数据传输方法, 以 使得载波聚合、 尤其是宏小基站间载波聚合不会影响数据传输效 率的提升。 并且, 为了实现上述目的, 本申请发明人提出了由宏 基站例如根据信道状况和 /或负载状况统一控制宏小基站间载波 聚合时的重传任务分配、 尤其是下行重传任务分配。  As described in the Background of the Invention and the Summary of the Invention, the present invention is mainly directed to providing a data transmission method, particularly a data transmission method in the case of carrier aggregation, so that carrier aggregation, especially carrier aggregation between macro and small base stations, does not affect. Increased data transfer efficiency. Further, in order to achieve the above object, the inventors of the present application have proposed a retransmission task allocation, particularly a downlink retransmission task allocation, when a macro base station uniformly controls carrier aggregation between macro and small base stations, for example, according to channel conditions and/or load conditions.

例如, 根据本发明的一实施例的数据传输方法, 在第一基站 和第二基站均与用户设备进行数据传输的情况下, 第一基站可例 如根据信道状况和 /或负载状况确定下行重传站点; 并且, 第一基 站使根据下行状态报告所确定的下行待重传数据发送至用户设 备。 例如, 在下行重传站点不包括第二基站的情况下, 第一基站 将根据下行状态报告确定的下行待重传数据发送至用户设备; 而 在下行重传站点包括第二基站的情况下, 第一基站将根据下行状 态报告确定的下行待重传数据的部分或全部发送至第二基站, 或 者将第二下行状态报告和 /或根据第一下行状态报告确定的下行 待重传数据发送至第二基站, 以使第二基站能够将部分或者全部 的下行待重传数据发送至用户设备。 其中, 下行重传站点为第一 基站和第二基站中用于向用户设备传输第一基站以及第二基站未 成功发送至用户设备的数据的站点; 下行状态报告表示用户设备 从第一基站以及第二基站接收数据的状态, 可包括第一下行状态 报告和 /或第二下行状态报告; 第一下行状态报告表示用户设备从 第一基站接收数据的状态; 以及, 第二下行状态报告表示用户设 备从第二基站接收数据的状态。 For example, in a data transmission method according to an embodiment of the present invention, in a case where both the first base station and the second base station perform data transmission with the user equipment, the first base station may determine downlink retransmission according to, for example, channel conditions and/or load conditions. And: the first base station sends the downlink to-be-retransmitted data determined according to the downlink status report to the user equipment. For example, in a case where the downlink retransmission station does not include the second base station, the first base station sends the downlink to-be-retransmitted data determined according to the downlink status report to the user equipment; and in the case that the downlink retransmission station includes the second base station, The first base station sends part or all of the downlink to-be-retransmitted data determined according to the downlink status report to the second base station, or sends the second downlink status report and/or the downlink to-be-retransmitted data determined according to the first downlink status report. To the second base station, to enable the second base station to send some or all of the downlink retransmission data to the user equipment. The downlink retransmission station is a site used by the first base station and the second base station to transmit data of the first base station to the user equipment and the second base station is not successfully sent to the user equipment; the downlink status report indicates the user equipment. The status of receiving data from the first base station and the second base station may include a first downlink status report and/or a second downlink status report; the first downlink status report indicates a state in which the user equipment receives data from the first base station; The second downlink status report indicates a status of the user equipment receiving data from the second base station.

下面将以第一基站为宏基站、 第二基站为小基站并且两者均 基于 RLC PDU数据形式与用户设备进行数据传输作为示例详细说 明该方法的几个具体实施例如下。  In the following, several specific implementations of the method will be described in detail by taking the first base station as the macro base station and the second base station as the small base station and both performing data transmission with the user equipment based on the RLC PDU data form as an example.

实施例 1  Example 1

图 3示出根据本发明一实施例的数据传输方法的下行重传部 分的流程图。  FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing a downlink retransmission portion of a data transmission method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

如图 3所示, 在该数据传输方法中, 宏基站控制用于下行重传 RLC数据的站点, 将重传 RLC PDU的任务分配到信道质量较好的 站点(步骤 S311、 S312) , 并通知小基站和 UE (步骤 S321、 S322) ; 或者, 根据负载均衡的需求, 宏基站进行控制以通过分集传输的 方式进行下行重传(步骤 S313) , 即对于需要下行重传的数据(可具 体为 RLC PDU和 /或 PDU分段, 其中所述 PDU分段是指在重传的时 候, 对原始的需要进行重传的 RLC PDU进行再次分割时所形成的 数据包), 通过宏基站和小基站共同传输(步骤 S353、 S353N , S353Y) , 以加快窗口的移动。 具体实施过程如下:  As shown in FIG. 3, in the data transmission method, the macro base station controls a station for downlink retransmission of RLC data, and allocates a task of retransmitting the RLC PDU to a station with better channel quality (steps S311, S312), and notifies The small base station and the UE (steps S321, S322); or, according to the load balancing requirement, the macro base station performs control to perform downlink retransmission by means of diversity transmission (step S313), that is, for data requiring downlink retransmission (specifically RLC PDU and/or PDU segment, where the PDU segment refers to a data packet formed when the original RLC PDU that needs to be retransmitted is re-divided at the time of retransmission), through the macro base station and the small base station Co-transfer (steps S353, S353N, S353Y) to speed up the movement of the window. The specific implementation process is as follows:

首先, 如图 3所示, 宏基站可例如根据信道状况和 /或负载状 况确定下行重传站点、 即负责向用户设备下行重传宏基站和 /或小 基站先前未成功发送的 RLC PDU和 /或 PDU分段的站点。 在一种可 能的实现方式中, 宏基站接收用户设备反馈的关于宏基站和小基 站的测量报告消息, 并根据测量报告以及宏基站与小基站的负载 均衡需求等确定下行重传站点。 在一种可能的具体实现方式中, 宏基站可确定自 身作为下行重传站点(参见图 3中(a)段的步骤 S311 ) , 也可确定小基站作为下行重传站点(参见图 3中(b)段的步骤 S312) ,也可以确定宏基站和小基站同时进行下行 RLC PDU的重传 (参见图 3中(c)段的步骤 S313)。 First, as shown in FIG. 3, the macro base station may determine, for example, a downlink retransmission station according to a channel condition and/or a load condition, that is, a downlink retransmission of a RLC PDU and/or a small base station that has not been successfully transmitted to the user equipment. Or the site where the PDU is segmented. In a possible implementation manner, the macro base station receives the measurement report message about the macro base station and the small base station fed back by the user equipment, and determines the downlink retransmission station according to the measurement report and the load balancing requirement of the macro base station and the small base station. In a possible specific implementation manner, the macro base station may determine itself as a downlink retransmission station (see step S311 in (a) of FIG. 3), and may also determine the small base station as a downlink retransmission station (see FIG. 3 ( b) Steps of the paragraph S312), it may also be determined that the macro base station and the small base station simultaneously perform retransmission of the downlink RLC PDU (see step S313 of (c) of FIG. 3).

在确定下行重传站点之后, 宏基站可向小基站和用户设备发 送下行重传指示(步骤 S321、 S322)。 在一种可能的实现方式中, 所述下行重传指示至少包括表示由宏基站控制下行重传站点的信 息。 在一种可能的实现方式中, 下行重传指示还可包括表示所述 下行重传站点的信息, 以通知小基站和用户设备负责进行下行重 传数据的站点。 在另一种可能的实现方式中, 所述下行重传指示 包括表示小基站是否被确定作为下行重传站点、 即表示小基站是 否要进行下行重传的信息, 以将小基站是否要进行下行重传的情 况通知给小基站和用户设备。  After determining the downlink retransmission station, the macro base station may send a downlink retransmission indication to the small base station and the user equipment (steps S321, S322). In a possible implementation, the downlink retransmission indication includes at least information indicating that the macro base station controls the downlink retransmission station. In a possible implementation manner, the downlink retransmission indication may further include information indicating the downlink retransmission station, to notify the small base station and the user equipment to be responsible for performing downlink retransmission of the data. In another possible implementation, the downlink retransmission indication includes information indicating whether the small base station is determined as a downlink retransmission station, that is, whether the small base station is to perform downlink retransmission, to determine whether the small base station is to be downlinked. The retransmission is notified to the small base station and the user equipment.

这样, 小基站能够根据所述下行重传指示确定自身是否需要 承担重传下行数据的任务。 例如, 若小基站接收到的下行重传指 示中所指示的下行重传站点不包括小基站(参见图 3中(a)段), 则小 基站仅仅对宏基站转发的初始 RLC PDU进行传输, 而不传输未发 送成功的 RLC PDU或 PDU分段给用户设备; 否则, 小基站从宏基 站接收需要重传的 RLC PDU或 PDU分段(参见图 3中(b)和(c)段, 步 骤 S352、 S353Y) , 并将这些数据包重传给 UE。  In this way, the small base station can determine whether it needs to undertake the task of retransmitting the downlink data according to the downlink retransmission indication. For example, if the downlink retransmission station indicated in the downlink retransmission indication received by the small base station does not include the small base station (see (a) in FIG. 3), the small base station only transmits the initial RLC PDU forwarded by the macro base station, Rather than transmitting the RLC PDU or PDU segment that was not successfully transmitted to the user equipment; otherwise, the small base station receives the RLC PDU or PDU segment that needs to be retransmitted from the macro base station (see paragraphs (b) and (c) of Figure 3, steps S352, S353Y), and retransmit these data packets to the UE.

另外, 用户设备能够根据所述下行重传指示确定下行状态报 告的反馈方式、 即在向宏基站反馈下行状态报告(步骤 S331 )之外 是否还需要向小基站反馈下行状态报告(步骤 S332)。 其中, 下行 状态报告表示用户设备从宏基站以及小基站接收数据的状态, 可 包括表示用户设备从宏基站接收数据的状态的第一下行状态报告 和 /或表示用户设备从小基站接收数据的状态的第二下行状态报 告。 在一种可能的实现方式中, 所述下行状态报告可包含下一个 期望正确接收的 RLC PDU之前的所有没有正确接收的 RLC PDU 或 PDU分段的标识信息。 例如, 若用户设备接收到的下行重传指 示中所指示的下行重传站点包含小基站(参见图 3中(b)和(c)段),则 在 RLC下行状态报告被触发后, 用户设备向宏基站和小基站均反 馈 RLC下行状态报告; 否则, 用户设备仅向宏基站上报 RLC下行 状态报告(参见图 3中(a)段)。 In addition, the user equipment can determine, according to the downlink retransmission indication, a feedback manner of the downlink status report, that is, whether the downlink status report needs to be fed back to the small base station in addition to reporting the downlink status report to the macro base station (step S331) (step S332). The downlink status report indicates a status of the user equipment receiving data from the macro base station and the small base station, and may include a first downlink status report indicating a status of the user equipment receiving data from the macro base station and/or a status indicating that the user equipment receives data from the small base station. The second downlink status report. In a possible implementation manner, the downlink status report may include identifier information of all RLC PDUs or PDU segments that are not correctly received before the next RLC PDU that is expected to be correctly received. For example, if the user equipment receives the downlink retransmission finger The downlink retransmission station indicated in the indication includes a small base station (see paragraphs (b) and (c) of FIG. 3), and after the RLC downlink status report is triggered, the user equipment feeds back the RLC downlink status to both the macro base station and the small base station. Reporting; otherwise, the user equipment reports only the RLC downlink status report to the macro base station (see paragraph (a) of Figure 3).

接着, 在接收到用户设备反馈的下行状态报告(可具体为 RLC 状态报告)的情况下(步骤 S331 ) , 宏基站根据所述下行状态报告确 定需要重传的 RLC PDU或者 PDU分段、 以下称为下行待重传数据 (步骤 S340) , 并将所述下行待重传数据经由所确定的下行重传站 点发送至用户设备(步骤 S351、 S352、 S353、 S353N、 S353Y)。  Then, when receiving the downlink status report (which may be specifically the RLC status report) fed back by the user equipment (step S331), the macro base station determines, according to the downlink status report, an RLC PDU or a PDU segment that needs to be retransmitted, hereinafter referred to as The data to be retransmitted is downlinked (step S340), and the downlink to-be-retransmitted data is sent to the user equipment via the determined downlink retransmission station (steps S351, S352, S353, S353N, S353Y).

例如, 在宏基站确定宏基站自身负责进行 RLC PDU和 /或 PDU 分段的重传(参见图 3中(a)段, 步骤 S311 )、 即下行重传站点仅包括 宏基站自身的情况下, 小基站不需要向用户设备重传需要重传的 RLC PDU及 PDU分段, 而是由宏基站将根据用户设备反馈的下行 状态报告所确定的下行待重传数据发送至用户设备(步骤 S351 )。  For example, in the case where the macro base station determines that the macro base station itself is responsible for performing retransmission of RLC PDUs and/or PDU segments (see paragraph (a) of FIG. 3, step S311), that is, if the downlink retransmission station includes only the macro base station itself, The small base station does not need to retransmit the RLC PDU and the PDU segment to be retransmitted to the user equipment, but the macro base station sends the downlink to-be-retransmitted data determined according to the downlink status report fed back by the user equipment to the user equipment (step S351). .

又例如, 在宏基站确定小基站负责进行 RLC PDU和 /或 PDU分 段的下行重传(参见图 3中(b)段, 步骤 S312)、 即下行重传站点仅包 括小基站的情况下, 宏基站将根据用户设备反馈的下行状态报告 所确定的下行待重传数据转发至小基站(步骤 S352) , 以使得小基 站能够将所述下行待重传数据发送至用户设备。  For another example, in the case where the macro base station determines that the small base station is responsible for downlink retransmission of the RLC PDU and/or PDU segment (see paragraph (b) of FIG. 3, step S312), that is, if the downlink retransmission station includes only the small base station, The macro base station forwards the downlink to-be-retransmitted data determined by the downlink status report fed back by the user equipment to the small base station (step S352), so that the small base station can send the downlink to-be-retransmitted data to the user equipment.

再例如, 在宏基站确定宏基站和小基站同时都需要负责 RLC PDU和 /或 PDU分段的重传(参见图 3中(c)段, 步骤 S313)、 即下行重 传站点包括宏基站自身和小基站的情况下, 宏基站根据传输的需 要确定是否向小基站转发需要重传的 RLC PDU或者 PDU分段(步 骤 S353) , 从而将根据用户设备反馈的下行状态报告所确定的下行 待重传数据划分为第一部分重传数据和第二部分重传数据, 并将 第一部分重传数据直接发送至用户设备(步骤 S353N) , 而将第二部 分重传数据经由小基站转发至用户设备(步骤 S353Y)。 此外, 如图 3所示, 宏基站还基于用户设备上报的新的测量报 告和 /或新的负载均衡需求等重新确定下行重传站点(步骤 S3 12、 S3 1 3)。 需要说明的是, 尽管图 3示出了宏基站首次确定宏基站自 身作为下行重传站点、 然后基于测量报告将下行重传站点更新为 小基站、 再然后又基于测量报告将下行重传站点更新为宏基站和 小基站的示例, 然而本领域技术人员应能理解, 本发明不限于此。 事实上, 每次的下行重传站点是由宏基站例如根据信道状况和 /或 负载状况所确定的、 而不应限于宏基站、 小基站、 宏小基站的出 现顺序, 并且测量报告也仅为能够反映信道状况的一个示例。 For another example, the macro base station determines that both the macro base station and the small base station need to be responsible for retransmission of RLC PDUs and/or PDU segments (see paragraph (c) of FIG. 3, step S313), that is, the downlink retransmission station includes the macro base station itself. In the case of the small base station, the macro base station determines whether to forward the RLC PDU or the PDU segment to be retransmitted to the small base station according to the needs of the transmission (step S353), so as to determine the downlink toll weight determined according to the downlink status report fed back by the user equipment. The data is divided into the first part of the retransmitted data and the second part of the retransmitted data, and the first part of the retransmitted data is directly sent to the user equipment (step S353N), and the second part of the retransmitted data is forwarded to the user equipment via the small base station ( Step S353Y). In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, the macro base station further re-determines the downlink retransmission station based on the new measurement report reported by the user equipment and/or the new load balancing requirement (steps S3 12, S3 13). It should be noted that although FIG. 3 shows that the macro base station first determines the macro base station itself as the downlink retransmission station, then updates the downlink retransmission station to the small base station based on the measurement report, and then updates the downlink retransmission station based on the measurement report. Examples of the macro base station and the small base station, however, those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited thereto. In fact, each downlink retransmission station is determined by the macro base station, for example, according to channel conditions and/or load conditions, and should not be limited to the appearance order of the macro base station, the small base station, and the macro small base station, and the measurement report is only An example that can reflect channel conditions.

通过上述介绍可知, 由于宏基站能够例如根据信道状况和 /或 负载状况统一控制宏小基站间载波聚合时的重传任务分配、 尤其 是下行重传任务分配, 根据本发明上述实施例的数据传输方法能 够有效避免在宏基站和小基站均与用户设备进行数据传输的情况 下, 由于两个站点传输条件不同而导致排序窗口移动慢、 进而导 致数据传输效率降低的问题, 以及由于小基站不知道是否应该进 行数据重传而导致的低效重传或盲目重传的问题。  According to the above description, the macro base station can uniformly control the retransmission task allocation, especially the downlink retransmission task allocation, during the carrier aggregation between the small and small base stations according to the channel condition and/or the load condition, and the data transmission according to the above embodiment of the present invention. The method can effectively avoid the problem that when the macro base station and the small base station both transmit data with the user equipment, the scheduling window moves slowly due to different transmission conditions of the two stations, thereby causing the data transmission efficiency to be reduced, and the small base station does not know. Whether the problem of inefficient retransmission or blind retransmission caused by data retransmission should be carried out.

变形例 1  Modification 1

图 3 a示出图 3所示数据传输方法的一变形例的下行重传部分 的流程图。 图 3 a中标号与图 3相同的组件具有相同的功能, 为简明 请见, 省略对这些组件的详细说明。  Fig. 3a is a flow chart showing a downlink retransmission portion of a modification of the data transmission method shown in Fig. 3. The components in Fig. 3a that have the same reference numerals as in Fig. 3 have the same functions, and a detailed description of these components is omitted for brevity.

如图 3 a所示, 该数据传输方法与图 3所示的主要区别在于, 宏 基站仅将下行重传指示通知给小基站(步骤 S321 )、 而不通知给用 户设备。 在这种情况下, 由于无法根据下行重传指示获知由宏基 站统一控制宏小基站间的下行重传任务分配, 用户设备将如常地 把表示从宏基站接收数据的状态的第一下行状态报告反馈至宏基 站(步骤 S33 1 a) , 并把表示从小基站接收数据的状态的第二下行状 态报告反馈至小基站(S332a)。 换言之, 为了实现对下行重传任务 分配的统一控制, 宏基站需要如图 3a所示从小基站接收第二下行 状态报告(步骤 S332b)。 As shown in FIG. 3a, the main difference between the data transmission method and that shown in FIG. 3 is that the macro base station only notifies the small base station of the downlink retransmission indication (step S321) without notifying the user equipment. In this case, since it is impossible to know, according to the downlink retransmission indication, that the macro base station uniformly controls the downlink retransmission task allocation between the macro and small base stations, the user equipment will always display the first downlink state indicating the state of receiving data from the macro base station. The report feeds back to the macro base station (step S33 1 a), and feeds back a second downlink state report indicating the state of receiving data from the small base station to the small base station (S332a). In other words, in order to achieve the downlink retransmission task For unified control of the allocation, the macro base station needs to receive the second downlink status report from the small base station as shown in Fig. 3a (step S332b).

实施例 2  Example 2

图 4示出根据本发明另一实施例的数据传输方法的下行重传 部分的流程图。 图 4中标号与图 3、 图 3a相同的组件具有相同的功 能, 为简明起见, 省略对这些组件的详细说明。  4 is a flow chart showing a downlink retransmission portion of a data transmission method according to another embodiment of the present invention. The components in Fig. 4 having the same reference numerals as those in Figs. 3 and 3a have the same functions, and a detailed description of these components will be omitted for the sake of brevity.

如图 4所示, 图 4所示的数据传输方法与图 3所示的主要区别在 于, 宏基站仅将下行重传指示通知给小基站(步骤 S421 )、 并不通 知给用户设备; 而用户设备则将下行状态报告反馈到预设的站点 (步骤 S431 ) , 例如图 4所示的宏基站。 其中, 所述下行重传指示主 要用于指示小基站是否负责对 RLC PDU或 PDU分段进行重传。 例 如, 在宏基站需要小基站进行下行数据重传时, 宏基站可将相关 的下行状态报告发送至小基站(参见图 4中(b)段, 步骤 S432)。 进一 步, 宏基站还可将初次传输中宏基站进行、 但是需要在小基站进 行重传的数据发送至小基站(参见图 4中(b)段, 步骤 S452) , 以由小 基站将该数据重传至用户设备。 具体实施过程如下:  As shown in FIG. 4, the main difference between the data transmission method shown in FIG. 4 and that shown in FIG. 3 is that the macro base station not only notifies the small base station of the downlink retransmission indication (step S421), but does not notify the user equipment; The device then feeds back the downlink status report to the preset site (step S431), such as the macro base station shown in FIG. The downlink retransmission indication is mainly used to indicate whether the small base station is responsible for retransmitting the RLC PDU or the PDU segment. For example, when the macro base station needs the small base station to perform downlink data retransmission, the macro base station can send the relevant downlink status report to the small base station (see paragraph (b) of Fig. 4, step S432). Further, the macro base station may further transmit data that is performed by the macro base station in the initial transmission but needs to be retransmitted in the small base station to the small base station (see paragraph (b) of FIG. 4, step S452), so that the data is heavy by the small base station. Transfer to the user device. The specific implementation process is as follows:

首先, 如图 4所示, 宏基站可例如根据信道状况和 /或负载状 况确定下行重传站点。 在一种可能的具体实现方式中, 宏基站可 确定下行重传站点不包括小基站(参见图 4中(a)段, 步骤 S411 ) , 也 可确定下行重传站点包括小基站(参见图 4中(b)段, 步骤 S412)。  First, as shown in Figure 4, the macro base station can determine the downlink retransmission site, e.g., based on channel conditions and/or load conditions. In a possible specific implementation manner, the macro base station may determine that the downlink retransmission station does not include the small base station (see (a) in FIG. 4, step S411), and may also determine that the downlink retransmission station includes the small base station (see FIG. 4). In paragraph (b), step S412).

然后, 宏基站向小基站发送下行重传指示(步骤 S421、 S422) , 其中所述下行重传指示主要用于指示小基站是否需要负责进行下 行数据重传。 在一种可能的实现方式中, 所述下行重传指示可以 仅包含是否执行 RLC PDU重传的指示信息(参见图 4中(a)段, 步骤 S 421 ) , 或者还可以指示小基站需要重传经过宏基站初次传输的 RLC PDU或 PDU分段(参见图 4中(a)段, 步骤 S422)。  Then, the macro base station sends a downlink retransmission indication to the small base station (steps S421, S422), where the downlink retransmission indication is mainly used to indicate whether the small base station needs to be responsible for performing downlink data retransmission. In a possible implementation, the downlink retransmission indication may include only indication information about whether to perform retransmission of the RLC PDU (refer to paragraph (a) of FIG. 4, step S 421 ), or may also indicate that the small base station needs to be heavy. The RLC PDU or PDU segment transmitted through the macro base station for the first time transmission (see paragraph (a) of Fig. 4, step S422).

在一种可能的实现方式中, 小基站根据所接收到的下行重传 指示确定本地是否需要执行 RLC PDU或 PDU分段的重传。 例如, 在确定需要重传小基站自身初次传输的 RLC PDU或 PDU分段的情 况下, 小基站进一步基于宏基站发送的相关下行状态报告确定需 要重传的 RLC PDU或 PDU分段(参见图 4中(b)段,步骤 S431、 S441 ); 以及, 在确定需要重传经过宏基站初次传输的 RLC PDU或 PDU分 段的情况下, 小基站进一步接收宏基站发送的需要重传的 RLC PDU或 PDU分段(参见图 4中(b)段, 步骤 S452、 S453)。 在一种可能 的具体实现方式中, 小基站总是优先传输待重传的 RLC PDU或 PDU分段中的 SN (Sequence Number ,序列号)最小的 RLC PDU或者 PDU分段, 以加快重排序窗口的移动。 In a possible implementation manner, the small base station according to the received downlink retransmission The indication determines whether local retransmission of the RLC PDU or PDU segment needs to be performed. For example, in the case of determining that the RLC PDU or PDU segment of the primary transmission itself needs to be retransmitted, the small base station further determines the RLC PDU or PDU segment that needs to be retransmitted based on the relevant downlink status report sent by the macro base station (see FIG. 4). (b), steps S431, S441); and, in the case of determining that the RLC PDU or PDU segment to be retransmitted by the macro base station for initial transmission needs to be retransmitted, the small base station further receives the RLC PDU transmitted by the macro base station and needs to be retransmitted or PDU segmentation (see paragraph (b) of Figure 4, steps S452, S453). In a possible implementation, the small base station always preferentially transmits the RLC PDU or PDU segment with the smallest SN (Sequence Number) in the RLC PDU or PDU segment to be retransmitted, so as to speed up the reordering window. The movement.

通过上述介绍可知, 与图 3、 图 3a所示的数据传输方法实施例 相同, 由于宏基站能够例如根据信道状况和 /或负载状况统一控制 宏小基站间载波聚合时的重传任务分配、 尤其是下行重传任务分 配, 图 4所示的数据传输方法实施例也能够有效避免在宏基站和小 基站均与用户设备进行数据传输的情况下, 由于两个站点传输条 件不同而导致排序窗口移动慢、 进而导致数据传输效率降低的问 题, 以及由于小基站不知道是否应该进行数据重传而导致的低效 重传或盲目重传的问题。  As can be seen from the above description, as in the embodiment of the data transmission method shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 3a, the macro base station can uniformly control the retransmission task allocation during the carrier aggregation between the small and small base stations, for example, according to channel conditions and/or load conditions, in particular It is a downlink retransmission task allocation. The data transmission method embodiment shown in FIG. 4 can also effectively prevent the sorting window from moving due to different transmission conditions of the two stations in the case where the macro base station and the small base station both transmit data with the user equipment. The problem of slow, resulting in reduced data transmission efficiency, and the problem of inefficient retransmission or blind retransmission due to the small base station not knowing whether or not data retransmission should be performed.

需要说明的是,尽管图 3示出用户设备根据宏基站通知的下行 重传指示确定向宏基站和小基站反馈下行状态报告的方式, 图 3a 示出用户设备如常地将表示从宏基站接收数据的状态的第一下行 状态报告反馈至宏基站、 将表示从小基站接收数据的状态的第二 下行状态报告反馈至小基站, 以及图 4示出用户设备被预先设定为 向宏基站反馈下行状态报告作为示例, 但本领域技术人员应能理 解, 本发明不限于此, 用户设备完全可同时向宏基站和小基站反 馈第一下行状态报告以及第二下行状态报告, 甚至还可以只向宏 基站或者小基站反馈第一下行状态报告以及第二下行状态报告。 不管用户设备的下行状态报告反馈方式如何, 只要宏基站例如根 据信道状况和 /或负载状况所确定的下行重传站点最终能够基于 用户设备所反馈的下行状态报告确定下行待重传数据即可。 It should be noted that although FIG. 3 illustrates a manner in which the user equipment determines to report a downlink status report to the macro base station and the small base station according to the downlink retransmission indication notified by the macro base station, FIG. 3a illustrates that the user equipment will normally receive the data from the macro base station. The first downlink state report of the state is fed back to the macro base station, the second downlink state report indicating the state of receiving data from the small base station is fed back to the small base station, and FIG. 4 shows that the user equipment is preset to feedback the downlink to the macro base station. The status report is taken as an example, but those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited thereto, and the user equipment can simultaneously feed back the first downlink status report and the second downlink status report to the macro base station and the small base station, and may even only The macro base station or the small base station feeds back the first downlink status report and the second downlink status report. Regardless of the downlink status report feedback mode of the user equipment, the downlink retransmission station determined by the macro base station, for example, according to the channel condition and/or the load status, can finally determine the downlink to retransmit data based on the downlink status report fed back by the user equipment.

图 5示出根据本发明又一实施例的数据传输方法的上行重传 部分的流程图。  Fig. 5 is a flow chart showing an uplink retransmission portion of a data transmission method according to still another embodiment of the present invention.

如图 5所示, 在该数据传输方法中, 用户设备在根据宏基站和 /或小基站反馈的上行状态报告确定上行待重传数据、 可具体为 RLC PDU或 PDU分段(步骤 S511、 S512)之后, 对所确定的上行待 重传数据执行跨站点重传(步骤 S521、 S522) , 其中所述上行状态 报告可包括表示宏基站从用户设备接收数据的状态的第一上行状 态报告和 /或表示小基站从用户设备接收数据的状态的第二上行 状态报告。 即在接收到宏基站或小基站调度的上行授予(UL grant) 时, 用户设备总是优先于需要新传的 RLC PDU , 使用所分配的 UL grant传输需要进行重传的 RLC PDU或 PDU分段, 而不管这些 RLC PDU或 PDU分段的前一次传输发生在哪个站点。 也就是说, 用户 设备在确定如何在宏基站和小基站分配的 UL grant上发送 RLC PDU或 PDU分段时, 并不考虑所述 UL grant的分配站点, 也不考虑 RLC PDU或 PDU分段的上一次传输的站点, 而总是在所接收到的 UL grant上优先发送需要上行重传的 RLC PDU或 PDU分段。  As shown in FIG. 5, in the data transmission method, the user equipment determines, according to the uplink status report fed back by the macro base station and/or the small base station, the uplink to-be-retransmitted data, which may be specifically an RLC PDU or a PDU segment (steps S511, S512). After performing cross-site retransmission on the determined uplink to-be-retransmitted data (steps S521, S522), wherein the uplink status report may include a first uplink status report indicating a status of the macro base station receiving data from the user equipment and/or Or a second uplink status report indicating the status of the small base station receiving data from the user equipment. That is, when receiving the UL grant scheduled by the macro base station or the small base station, the user equipment always uses the allocated UL grant to transmit the RLC PDU or PDU segment that needs to be retransmitted, in preference to the RLC PDU that needs to be newly transmitted. , regardless of which site the previous transmission of these RLC PDUs or PDU segments occurred. That is, when the user equipment determines how to transmit the RLC PDU or PDU segment on the UL grant allocated by the macro base station and the small base station, the allocation station of the UL grant is not considered, and the RLC PDU or PDU segment is not considered. The station that was last transmitted, and always sends the RLC PDU or PDU segment that requires uplink retransmission on the received UL grant.

例如, 在一种可能的具体实现方式中, 用户设备可在宏基站 分配的上行授予上行发送根据宏基站自身反馈的状态报告所确定 的上行待重传数据(图 5中(a)段), 可在宏基站分配的上行授予上行 发送根据小基站反馈的状态报告所确定的上行待重传数据(图 5中 (b)段),可在小基站分配的上行授予上行发送根据小基站自身反馈 的状态报告所确定的上行待重传数据(图 5中(d)段), 还可在小基站 分配的上行授予上行发送根据宏基站反馈的状态报告所确定的上 行待重传数据(图 5中(c)段)。 For example, in a possible implementation manner, the user equipment may grant, in the uplink allocated by the macro base station, the uplink to-be-retransmitted data determined according to the status report fed back by the macro base station itself (paragraph (a) in FIG. 5). The uplink to-be-retransmitted data determined according to the status report fed back by the small base station may be sent to the uplink allocated by the macro base station (paragraph (b) in FIG. 5), and the uplink transmission may be performed on the uplink allocated by the small base station according to the feedback of the small base station. The uplink retransmission data determined by the status report (paragraph (d) in FIG. 5) may also be granted on the uplink allocated by the small base station, and the uplink transmission is determined according to the status report fed back by the macro base station. The data is to be retransmitted (paragraph (c) in Figure 5).

图 5 a示出图 5所示数据传输方法的变形例的上行重传部分的 流程图。  Fig. 5a is a flow chart showing an uplink retransmission portion of a modification of the data transmission method shown in Fig. 5.

如图 5a所示, 该数据传输方法与图 5所示方法相比的主要区别 在于, 将上行重传数据(可具体为 RLC PDU)的重传限制到宏基站 上, 即由宏基站负责向用户设备反馈上行状态报告, 其中该上行 状态报告可以是宏基站基于自身的数据接收状态生成的第一上行 状态报告、 也可以是由小基站基于自身的数据接收状态生成并转 发至宏基站的第二上行状态报告; 并且, 用户设备负责向宏基站 发送根据所接收到的上行状态报告确定的上行重传数据。 这样, 可以加快宏基站侧的发送窗口的更新速度。  As shown in FIG. 5a, the main difference between the data transmission method and the method shown in FIG. 5 is that the retransmission of the uplink retransmission data (specifically, the RLC PDU) is restricted to the macro base station, that is, the macro base station is responsible for The user equipment feeds back an uplink status report, where the uplink status report may be a first uplink status report generated by the macro base station based on its own data reception status, or may be generated by the small base station based on its own data reception status and forwarded to the macro base station. The second uplink status report; and, the user equipment is responsible for transmitting the uplink retransmission data determined according to the received uplink status report to the macro base station. In this way, the update speed of the transmission window on the macro base station side can be increased.

图 5b示出图 5所示数据传输方法的另一变形例的上行重传部 分的流程图。  Fig. 5b is a flow chart showing an uplink retransmission portion of another modification of the data transmission method shown in Fig. 5.

如图 5b所示, 该数据传输方法与图 5、 图 5a所示方法相比的主 要区别在于, 将上行重传数据(可具体为 RLC PDU)的重传限制到 小基站上, 即小基站负责向用户设备反馈上行状态报告, 其中该 上行状态报告可以是小基站基于自身的数据接收状态生成的第二 上行状态报告、 也可以是由宏基站基于自身的数据接收状态生成 并转发至宏基站的第一上行状态报告; 并且, 用户设备负责向小 基站发送根据所接收到的上行状态报告确定的上行重传数据。 这 样, 可以加快小基站侧的发送窗口的更新速度。  As shown in FIG. 5b, the main difference between the data transmission method and the method shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 5a is that the retransmission of the uplink retransmission data (specifically, the RLC PDU) is restricted to the small base station, that is, the small base station. Responsible for feeding back the uplink status report to the user equipment, where the uplink status report may be a second uplink status report generated by the small base station based on its own data receiving status, or may be generated by the macro base station based on its own data receiving status and forwarded to the macro base station. The first uplink status report; and, the user equipment is responsible for transmitting the uplink retransmission data determined according to the received uplink status report to the small base station. In this way, the update speed of the transmission window on the small base station side can be accelerated.

图 6示出根据本发明又一实施例的数据传输方法的上行重传 部分的流程图。  Fig. 6 is a flow chart showing an uplink retransmission portion of a data transmission method according to still another embodiment of the present invention.

如图 6所示, 图 6所示的数据传输方法与图 5所示的主要区别在 于, 在该数据传输方法中, 宏基站以与实施例 1中类似的方式指定 上行重传站点、 即负责从用户设备接收先前未成功发送至宏基站 和 /或小基站的 RLC PDU和 /或 PDU分段的站点(步骤 S61 1、 S612、 S613) , 并在确定上行重传站点后向用户设备发送上行重传指示 (步骤 S620)。 其中, 所述上行重传指示至少包括表示所确定的上 行重传站点的信息, 以使得用户设备能够根据所述上行重传指示 向所指示的上行重传站点进行 RLC PDU或 PDU分段的重传。 As shown in FIG. 6, the main difference between the data transmission method shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 5 is In the data transmission method, the macro base station specifies an uplink retransmission station, that is, is responsible for receiving, from the user equipment, RLC PDUs that have not been successfully transmitted to the macro base station and/or the small base station, and/or in a manner similar to that in Embodiment 1. The station of the PDU segmentation (steps S61 1, S612, S613), and transmitting an uplink retransmission indication to the user equipment after determining the uplink retransmission station (step S620). The uplink retransmission indication includes at least information indicating the determined uplink retransmission station, so that the user equipment can perform the weight of the RLC PDU or the PDU segment to the indicated uplink retransmission station according to the uplink retransmission indication. pass.

例如, 在一种可能的具体实现方式中, 如图 6中(a)段所示, 在 宏基站确定宏基站自身作为上行重传站点(步骤 S611 )的情况下, 用户设备在接收到宏基站和 /或小基站反馈的上行状态报告(步骤 S63 1、 S632)的情况下, 根据所接收到的上行状态报告确定上行待 重传数据(步骤 S641 ) , 并将所确定的上行待重传数据发送至宏基 站(步骤 S651 )。  For example, in a possible specific implementation manner, as shown in (a) of FIG. 6, when the macro base station determines that the macro base station itself is an uplink retransmission station (step S611), the user equipment receives the macro base station. And/or the uplink status report fed back by the small base station (steps S63 1 and S632), determining uplink to-be-retransmitted data according to the received uplink status report (step S641), and determining the determined uplink to-be-retransmitted data It is transmitted to the macro base station (step S651).

又例如, 在另一种可能的具体实现方式中, 如图 6中(b)段所 示, 在宏基站确定小基站作为上行重传站点(步骤 S612)的情况下, 用户设备在接收到宏基站和 /或小基站反馈的状态报告(步骤 S63 1、 S632)的情况下, 根据所接收到的上行状态报告确定上行待 重传数据(步骤 S642) , 并将所确定的上行待重传数据发送至小基 站(步骤 S652)。  For another example, in another possible implementation manner, as shown in (b) of FIG. 6, when the macro base station determines the small base station as the uplink retransmission station (step S612), the user equipment receives the macro base. In the case of the status report fed back by the station and/or the small base station (steps S63 1 and S632), the uplink to-be-retransmitted data is determined according to the received uplink status report (step S642), and the determined uplink to-be-retransmitted data is determined. The packet is transmitted to the small base station (step S652).

再例如,在又一种可能的具体实现方式中,如图 6中(c)段所示, 在宏基站确定宏基站自身和小基站同时作为上行重传站点(步骤 S613)的情况下, 用户设备可从宏基站和小基站接收宏基站和 /或 小基站反馈的上行状态报告(步骤 S631、 S632) , 并在根据所接收 到的状态报告确定上行待重传数据(步骤 S641、 S642)之后, 将所 确定的上行待重传数据发送至相应的站点(步骤 S651、 S652)。  For example, in another possible specific implementation manner, as shown in (c) of FIG. 6, when the macro base station determines that the macro base station itself and the small base station simultaneously serve as the uplink retransmission station (step S613), the user The device may receive an uplink status report fed back by the macro base station and/or the small base station from the macro base station and the small base station (steps S631, S632), and after determining the uplink to-be-retransmitted data according to the received status report (steps S641, S642) And transmitting the determined uplink to-be-retransmitted data to the corresponding site (steps S651, S652).

此外, 如图 6所示, 宏基站还基于用户设备上报的新的测量报 告和 /或新的负载均衡需求等重新确定下行重传站点(步骤 S612、 S613)。 需要说明的是, 尽管图 6示出了宏基站首次确定宏基站自 身作为上行重传站点、 然后基于测量报告将上行重传站点更新为 小基站、 再然后又基于测量报告将上行重传站点更新为宏基站和 小基站的示例, 然而本领域技术人员应能理解, 本发明不限于此。 事实上, 每次的上行重传站点是由宏基站例如根据信道状况和 /或 负载状况所确定的、 而不应限于宏基站、 小基站、 宏小基站的出 现顺序, 并且测量报告也仅为能够反映信道状况的一个示例。 In addition, as shown in FIG. 6, the macro base station further re-determines the downlink retransmission site based on the new measurement report reported by the user equipment and/or the new load balancing requirement (step S612, S613). It should be noted that although FIG. 6 shows that the macro base station first determines the macro base station itself as an uplink retransmission station, then updates the uplink retransmission station to the small base station based on the measurement report, and then updates the uplink retransmission station based on the measurement report. Examples of the macro base station and the small base station, however, those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited thereto. In fact, each uplink retransmission station is determined by the macro base station, for example, according to channel conditions and/or load conditions, and should not be limited to the appearance order of the macro base station, the small base station, and the macro small base station, and the measurement report is only An example that can reflect channel conditions.

实施例 5  Example 5

图 7示出根据本发明又一实施例的数据传输方法的流程图。 如图 7所示,在该数据传输方法中,宏基站控制数据分流规则、 可具体为 SN分配规则, 即对于某个 DRB(Data Radio Bearer, 数据 无线承载)上的数据, 宏基站侧使用哪些 SN发送 RLC PDU以及小 基站侧又使用哪些 SN发送 RLC PDU , 是统一由宏基站控制的。 具 体实施过程如下:  FIG. 7 shows a flow chart of a data transmission method according to still another embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 7, in the data transmission method, the macro base station controls the data offload rule, which may be specifically an SN allocation rule, that is, which data is used by the macro base station side for data on a certain DRB (Data Radio Bearer) The SN sends the RLC PDU and the SNs used by the small base station side to transmit the RLC PDU are uniformly controlled by the macro base station. The specific implementation process is as follows:

首先, 宏基站可例如根据信道状况和 /或负载状况确定宏小基 站间载波聚合时的数据分流规则、 可具体为 SN分配规则(步骤 S710) , 并经由 SN分配指示将所确定的 SN分配规则通知给小基站 和用户设备(步骤 S721、 S722)。 例如, 在一种可能的实现方式中, 宏基站所确定的 SN分配规则可以是: 当 SN mod 3≠0时, 所述 SN 由小基站使用; 而当 SN mod 3=0时, 所述 SN由宏基站使用。 这样, 用户设备根据所述 SN分配指示就可以知道, SN为 0,3,6 ...的 RLC PDU将经过宏基站发送, 而 SN为 1 ,2,4,5,7,8…的 RLC PDU将经过 小基站进行发送。  First, the macro base station may determine, according to channel conditions and/or load conditions, a data offload rule when the macro-base station is aggregated between carriers, and may be specifically an SN allocation rule (step S710), and determine the determined SN allocation rule via the SN allocation indication. The small base station and the user equipment are notified (steps S721, S722). For example, in a possible implementation manner, the SN allocation rule determined by the macro base station may be: when SN mod 3≠0, the SN is used by the small base station; and when SN mod 3=0, the SN Used by the macro base station. In this way, the user equipment can know according to the SN allocation indication that RLC PDUs with SNs of 0, 3, 6 ... will be transmitted by the macro base station, and SNs are RLCs of 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8... The PDU will be sent through the small base station.

然后, 对于 UM模式, 用户设备分别针对宏基站和小基站建立 并维护独立的重排序定时器以及重排序窗口(步骤 S 730 )。 重排序 定时器维护的上界为当前所接收到的 SN最大的 RLC PDU的 SN,重 排序定时器维护的下界为按照 S N分配规则所确定的第一个没有 正确接收的数据包的 SN。 Then, for the UM mode, the user equipment establishes and maintains an independent reordering timer and a reordering window for the macro base station and the small base station, respectively (step S730). The upper bound of the reordering timer maintenance is the SN of the currently received SN maximum RLC PDU, and the lower bound maintained by the reordering timer is the first one determined according to the SN allocation rule. The SN of the correctly received packet.

而对于 AM模式,用户设备分别针对宏基站和小基站建立并维 护独立的重排序定时器(S741) ,并且用户设备在反馈 RLC下行状态 报告时, 可以基于两个独立的重排序定时器单独针对宏基站和小 基站进行状态报告反馈(步骤 S742、 S743)。 其中, 所述 RLC状态 报告中的 VT(A)应该基于 SN分配规则而确定的。所述 VT(A)表示接 收端已经按序收到 ACK (正确接收确认)的 RLC PDU的下一个 RLC PDU的 SN, 有时也称为下一个最大可能 ACK的 RLC PDU的 SN。  For the AM mode, the user equipment establishes and maintains an independent reordering timer (S741) for the macro base station and the small base station, respectively, and the user equipment may separately target the two independent reordering timers when feeding back the RLC downlink status report. The macro base station and the small base station perform status report feedback (steps S742, S743). The VT(A) in the RLC status report should be determined based on the SN allocation rule. The VT (A) indicates that the SN of the next RLC PDU of the RLC PDU that the receiving end has received the ACK (correctly received acknowledgment) in order, and is sometimes referred to as the SN of the RLC PDU of the next largest possible ACK.

在一种可能的实现方式中, 用户设备还可在任何 RLC状态报 告被触发时反馈总的 RLC状态报告, 以使得宏基站和小基站可以 知道双方当前的大致发送状态。 尤其是对于宏基站, 可以知道小 基站和用户设备之间的实际收发状态, 以便于宏基站重新配置 SN 分配规则。 在一种可能的具体实现方式中, 在总的 RLC状态报告 中携带两个 VT(A) , 即将宏基站侧和小基站侧的 VT(A)值都携带在 状态报告中上报。 例如, 假设宏基站侧的下一个最大可能 ACK的 包的 SN是 7 , 小基站侧的下一个最大可能 ACK的包的 SN是 6 , 则在 总的 RLC状态报告中, 7和 6都要分别作为 VT(A)上报。  In a possible implementation manner, the user equipment may also feed back the total RLC status report when any RLC status report is triggered, so that the macro base station and the small base station can know the current general transmission status of both parties. Especially for the macro base station, the actual transmission and reception status between the small base station and the user equipment can be known, so that the macro base station reconfigures the SN allocation rule. In a possible specific implementation, two VT(A) are carried in the total RLC status report, that is, the VT(A) values of the macro base station side and the small base station side are carried in the status report. For example, if the SN of the next largest possible ACK packet on the macro base station side is 7 and the SN of the next largest possible ACK packet on the small base station side is 6, then in the total RLC status report, 7 and 6 are respectively Reported as VT(A).

在另一种可能的实现方式中, 如图 7所示, 宏基站还可例如根 据信道状况和 /或负载状况等的变化进行 SN分配规则更新(步骤 S750)。 在进行 SN分配规则更新时, 宏基站需要通知小基站和用户 设备新的 SN分配规则的生效点。 在一种可能的实现方式中, 宏基 站在向小基站和用户设备通知的 SN分配指示中,还包括表示 SN分 配规则开始生效的位置信息, 例如从哪个 SN开始生效、 或者从哪 个 HFN (超帧号)以及 SN开始生效。 或者, 在另一种可能的实现方 式中, 宏基站向小基站和用户设备发送新规则开始指示, 以使得 用户设备和小基站能够根据所述新规则开始指示获得新 SN分配 规则开始生效的位置信息。 这样, 由于实现了 SN分配规则的无缝 切换, 能够有效避免数据包的丟失或重复发送。 In another possible implementation manner, as shown in FIG. 7, the macro base station may further perform SN allocation rule update according to changes in channel conditions and/or load conditions, etc. (step S750). When performing the SN allocation rule update, the macro base station needs to notify the small base station and the user equipment of the new SN allocation rule's effective point. In a possible implementation, the macro base station further includes, in the SN allocation indication notified to the small base station and the user equipment, location information indicating that the SN allocation rule starts to take effect, for example, from which SN is effective, or from which HFN (super The frame number) and the SN are in effect. Or, in another possible implementation manner, the macro base station sends a new rule start indication to the small base station and the user equipment, so that the user equipment and the small base station can start to obtain the location where the new SN allocation rule starts to be valid according to the new rule start indication. information. In this way, because of the seamless implementation of the SN allocation rules Switching can effectively avoid packet loss or repeated transmission.

此外, 对于上行, 宏基站可以通过控制 SN分配规则来控制用 户设备往宏基站和小基站发送的 RLC PDU。 具言之, 宏基站和小 基站维护两个单独的接收窗, 相互独立地向用户设备反馈 RLC状 态报告, 而用户设备则基于宏基站和小基站反馈的状态报告, 分 别针对宏基站和小基站进行上行重传。 换言之, 用户设备总是基 于宏基站下发的 SN分配规则来确定 RLC PDU的传输站点, 即 RLC PDU或 PDU分段的上行重传与初次传输一样按照 SN分配规则而发 送至相应的站点。  In addition, for the uplink, the macro base station can control the RLC PDUs sent by the user equipment to the macro base station and the small base station by controlling the SN allocation rule. In other words, the macro base station and the small base station maintain two separate receiving windows, and mutually report the RLC status report to the user equipment independently, and the user equipment is based on the status reports fed back by the macro base station and the small base station, respectively, for the macro base station and the small base station. Perform an uplink retransmission. In other words, the user equipment always determines the transmission site of the RLC PDU based on the SN allocation rule sent by the macro base station, that is, the uplink retransmission of the RLC PDU or the PDU segment is sent to the corresponding station according to the SN allocation rule as the initial transmission.

Its The downlink status report indicates the status of the user equipment 820 receiving data from the first base station 810 and the second base station 830, and may include a first downlink status report and/or a second downlink status report, where the first downlink status report indicates the user equipment. 820 receives the status of the data from the first base station 810, and the second downlink status report indicates the status of the user equipment 820 receiving data from the second base station 830.

例如, 在所述下行重传站点不包括第二基站 830的情况下, 下 行重传模块 813可将根据第一下行状态报告以及第二下行状态报 告确定的下行待重传数据发送至用户设备 820 ; 以及, 在所述下行 重传站点包括第二基站 830的情况下, 下行重传模块 813可将根据 所述第一下行状态报告以及所述第二下行状态报告确定的下行待 重传数据的部分或全部发送至第二基站 830 ,或者将所述第二下行 状态报告和 /或根据所述第一下行状态报告确定的下行待重传数 据发送至第二基站 830 , 以使第二基站 830承担部分或全部下行重 传任务。  For example, if the downlink retransmission station does not include the second base station 830, the downlink retransmission module 813 may send the downlink retransmission data determined according to the first downlink status report and the second downlink status report to the user equipment. And the downlink retransmission module 813 may perform downlink retransmission determined according to the first downlink status report and the second downlink status report, where the downlink retransmission station includes the second base station 830. Sending part or all of the data to the second base station 830, or sending the second downlink status report and/or the downlink to-be-retransmitted data determined according to the first downlink status report to the second base station 830, so that The two base stations 830 undertake some or all of the downlink retransmission tasks.

在一种可能的具体实现方式中, 下行重传指示模块 812还被配 置为向用户设备 820(可具体为其中的下行重传指示接收模块 821 ) 发送所述下行重传指示。 在这种情况下, 用户设备(可具体为其中 的下行重传模块 822)能够根据所述下行重传指示从下行重传站点 接收下行重传数据。 其中, 所述下行重传数据是指下行重传站点 向用户设备传输 820的第一基站 810以及第二基站 830先前未成功 发送至用户设备 820的数据。 此外, 由于用户设备 820(可具体为其 中的下行状态报告反馈模块 823)能够根据所述下行重传指示获知 由第一基站 810统一控制下行重传任务的分配,从而可直接将第二 下行状态报告发送给第一基站 810 , 这使得第一基站 810中的下行 重传模块 813还可从用户设备 820接收第二下行状态报告。  In a possible specific implementation manner, the downlink retransmission indication module 812 is further configured to send the downlink retransmission indication to the user equipment 820 (specifically, the downlink retransmission indication receiving module 821 therein). In this case, the user equipment (specifically, the downlink retransmission module 822 therein) can receive downlink retransmission data from the downlink retransmission station according to the downlink retransmission indication. The downlink retransmission data refers to data that the downlink retransmission station transmits to the user equipment 820 the first base station 810 and the second base station 830 has not successfully transmitted to the user equipment 820. In addition, the user equipment 820 (specifically, the downlink status report feedback module 823) can learn, according to the downlink retransmission indication, that the allocation of the downlink retransmission task is uniformly controlled by the first base station 810, so that the second downlink status can be directly The report is sent to the first base station 810, which causes the downlink retransmission module 813 in the first base station 810 to also receive a second downlink status report from the user equipment 820.

例如, 在所述下行重传指示表示所述下行重传站点不包括第 二基站 830的情况下, 下行状态报告反馈模块 823可将第一下行状 态报告以及第二下行状态报告发送至第一基站 810 ; 以及, 在所述 下行重传指示表示所述下行重传站点包括第二基站 830的情况下, 下行状态报告反馈模块 823可在将第一下行状态报告以及第二下 行状态报告发送至第一基站 810之外,还将第一下行状态报告以及 第二下行状态报告发送至第二基站 830。 For example, if the downlink retransmission indication indicates that the downlink retransmission station does not include the second base station 830, the downlink status report feedback module 823 may take the first downlink. The status report and the second downlink status report are sent to the first base station 810; and, in the case that the downlink retransmission indication indicates that the downlink retransmission station includes the second base station 830, the downlink status report feedback module 823 may be in the A downlink status report and a second downlink status report are sent to the first base station 810, and the first downlink status report and the second downlink status report are sent to the second base station 830.

然而, 在下行重传指示模块 812不向用户设备 820发送所述下 行重传指示的情况下, 下行重传模块 813则可能需要从第二基站 830接收第二下行状态报告。  However, in a case where the downlink retransmission indication module 812 does not send the downlink retransmission indication to the user equipment 820, the downlink retransmission module 813 may need to receive the second downlink status report from the second base station 830.

另外, 如图 8所示, 在一种可能的实现方式中, 用户设备 820 还可包括上行待重传数据确定模块 824和上行重传模块 825 ,其中: 上行待重传数据确定模块 824主要用于在第一基站 810和第二 基站 830均与用户设备 820进行数据传输的情况下, 根据上行状态 报告确定上行待重传数据。 其中, 上行状态报告表示第一基站 810 以及第二基站 830从用户设备接收数据的状态,可包括第一上行状 态包括和 /或第二上行状态报告, 第一上行状态报告表示第一基站 810从用户设备 820接收数据的状态, 而第二上行状态报告表示第 二基站 830从用户设备 820接收数据的状态。  In addition, as shown in FIG. 8, in a possible implementation manner, the user equipment 820 may further include an uplink to-be-retransmitted data determining module 824 and an uplink retransmission module 825, where: the uplink to-be-retransmitted data determining module 824 is mainly used. In the case that the first base station 810 and the second base station 830 perform data transmission with the user equipment 820, the uplink to-be-retransmitted data is determined according to the uplink status report. The uplink status report indicates that the first base station 810 and the second base station 830 receive data from the user equipment, and may include a first uplink status including and/or a second uplink status report, where the first uplink status report indicates that the first base station 810 is The user equipment 820 receives the status of the data, and the second uplink status report indicates the status of the second base station 830 receiving data from the user equipment 820.

上行重传模块 825主要用于将上行待重传数据确定模块 824所 确定的上行待重传数据发送至上行重传站点。 其中, 所述上行重 传站点为第一基站 810和第二基站 830中用于负责从用户设备 820 接收用户设备 820先前未成功发送至第一基站 810和 /或第二基站 830的数据的站点。  The uplink retransmission module 825 is mainly configured to send the uplink to-be-retransmitted data determined by the uplink to-be-retransmitted data determining module 824 to the uplink retransmission station. The uplink retransmission station is a site in the first base station 810 and the second base station 830 for receiving data from the user equipment 820 that the user equipment 820 has not previously successfully transmitted to the first base station 810 and/or the second base station 830. .

例如, 所述上行重传站点可被预设为第一基站 810 , 也可被预 设为第二基站 830。  For example, the uplink retransmission station may be preset to the first base station 810 or may be preset to the second base station 830.

又例如, 所述上行重传站点可为第一基站 810和第二基站 830 中当前给用户设备 820分配了上行授予的站点, 以使得用户设备 820总是能够优先传输需要重传的数据, 而不管该数据在初传时是 发送至第一基站 810还是第二基站 830。 For another example, the uplink retransmission station may allocate an uplink granting station to the user equipment 820 in the first base station 810 and the second base station 830, so that the user equipment 820 can always preferentially transmit data that needs to be retransmitted. Regardless of the data at the time of the initial transmission Whether to send to the first base station 810 or the second base station 830.

再例如, 可由第一基站 810(可具体为其中的上行重传站点确 定模块 814)例如根据实际的信道状况和 /或负载状况来确定并更新 所述上行重传站点。 在这种情况下, 第一基站 810(可具体为其中 的上行重传指示模块 815)将向用户设备 820发送上行重传指示。 其 中, 所述上行重传指示包含表示所述上行重传站点的信息, 以使 得用户设备 820中的上行重传模块 825能够据此向所述上行重传站 点发送需要上行重传的数据。  For another example, the uplink retransmission station may be determined and updated by the first base station 810 (specifically, the uplink retransmission station determining module 814 therein), for example, based on actual channel conditions and/or load conditions. In this case, the first base station 810 (specifically, the uplink retransmission indication module 815 therein) will send an uplink retransmission indication to the user equipment 820. The uplink retransmission indication includes information indicating the uplink retransmission station, so that the uplink retransmission module 825 in the user equipment 820 can send data that needs to be retransmitted to the uplink retransmission station.
