Description

System message transmission method and device

The present application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201610180331.7, filed on March 25, 2016, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. In the application.

Technical field

The present application relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method and device for transmitting system messages.

Background technique

In a communication system, a system message refers to a public message within a cell. In the traditional cellular network, the terminal obtains the complete information in the cell by reading the system message. In order to ensure the smooth reception of the system message, the system message always pre-occupies part of the time-frequency resource.

Taking the LTE (Long Term Evolution) system as an example, system messages in the LTE system are mainly classified into a MIB (Master Information Block) and a plurality of SIBs (System Information Blocks). When a UE (User Equipment) newly accesses a cell or a broadcast message changes, it will receive a system message. The system messages include: MIB, SIB1, and SI, where the SI currently includes SIB2 to SIB20. The contents and transmission characteristics of several system messages are listed below.

MIB: Used for system access. Several important system message parameters are transmitted on the MIB, such as the cell downlink bandwidth, PHICH (Physical Hybrid-ARQ Indicator Channel, HARQ, Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest, hybrid automatic repeat request) configuration parameters, SFN (System Frame Number, system frame number, for example, is transmitted on a PBCH (Physical Broadcast Channel), and the transmission period is 40 ms, that is, from the radio frame of SFN mod 4=0, and transmitted four times. On the time domain resource, the transport block carrying the MIB is transmitted on the first 4 OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) symbols of the second time slot of the subframe 0 of the 10 ms radio frame. On the frequency domain resource, the MIB occupies 1.08 MHz in the middle of the band (ie, 72 subcarriers, including the guard band).

SIB1: parameters related to broadcast cell access and cell selection, and scheduling information of SI messages (including one or more SIB2 to SIB13). The transmission period of SIB1 is 80 ms, and the initial transmission is retransmitted in subframe 5 of the SFN mod 2=0 radio frame in the subframe 5 of the SFN mod 8=0 radio frame.

Other system messages SI need to be scheduled in SIB1.

SIB2: Radio parameter configuration shared by all UEs in the cell, and other wireless parameters are basically configured.

SIB3: Cell reselection information, mainly related to serving cell reselection parameters and co-frequency cell reselection parameters.

SIB4: list of co-frequency neighboring cells and reselection parameters of each neighboring cell, and list of co-frequency white/blacklisted cells.

SIB5: a list of inter-frequency neighboring frequency points and reselection parameters of each frequency point, a list of inter-frequency neighboring cells, and reselection parameters of each neighboring cell, and an inter-frequency blacklisted cell list.

SIB6: UTRA FDD (Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Frequency Division Duplex) list of adjacent frequency points and reselection parameters for each frequency point, UTRA TDD adjacent frequency point list, and weight of each frequency point Select parameters.

SIB7: GERAN (Global System for Mobile communications Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution Radio Access Network) list of adjacent frequency points and reselection parameters for each frequency point.

SIB8: Pre-registration information of CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) 2000, CDMA2000 adjacent frequency band list and reselection parameters of each frequency band, and neighbor list of CDMA2000 adjacent frequency bands.

SIB9: Name of the HeNB (Home eNodeB).

SIB10: ETWS main information (Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System) (primary notification).

SIB11: ETWS secondary notification.

SIB12: CMAS (Commercial Mobile Alert Service) information (CMAS notification).

SIB13: Obtain information of MBMS (Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service) control information related to one or more MBSFN (Multicast/Broadcast Singal Frequency Network) areas.

SIB14 to SIB20 each have their own characteristics and will not be described one by one.

At present, the system message transmission period and its changes are shown in Figure 1. Different paddings represent different system messages. In addition to a few messages such as ETWS/CMAS, system message changes can only occur in specific radio frames, as determined by the modification period. During a modification period, system messages may be sent multiple times, and system messages sent multiple times are the same. System messages can only change after the boundaries of the modification cycle. When the base station needs to change the cell system message, it first needs to send a “system message change indication” to the UE to notify the UE to change the system message that occurs. The base station can send the updated system message in the next modification period.

With the diversification of services and the continuous evolution of wireless communication systems, the content of system messages will be more and more, and the resources occupied will be more and more, and the available resources for transmitting actual business data will be reduced. Moreover, since there are many provisions for the transmission of system messages, the application of other functions is also restricted, for example, the MIB and the SIB1 are fixedly occupying the subframe 0 and the subframe 5, so that the paging subframe and the MBSFN subframe cannot use the subframe 0 and the subframe 5 . Another example is in-band relay (in-band relay), The access link transmission of the relay node (RN) to the UE under the relay coverage can only use the MBSFN subframe of the backhaul link from the primary base station (DeNB) to the RN, which not only limits the use. The resources also increase the transmission delay of the access link.

In summary, as more and more system message content is used, more and more resources are occupied, resulting in a decrease in available resources for transmitting actual service data, which affects the transmission of service data.

Summary of the invention

The embodiment of the present application provides a method and a device for transmitting a system message, which are used to solve the problem that as the content of the system message increases and the resources occupied by the system are more and more, which leads to the transmission of actual service data.

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application are clearly and completely described in the following with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. It is a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without departing from the inventive scope are the scope of the present application.

The embodiments of the present application are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is to be understood that the embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and are not intended to be limiting.

In the first embodiment of the present application, a method for receiving a system message is provided. As shown in FIG. 2, the method includes:

S22. The terminal determines, according to the index number, a system message option corresponding to the index number from the system message option set, and validates the determined system message option, where the system message option includes at least A system message parameter and a value of the system message parameter.

For example, the possible values of each system message parameter may correspond to different system message options, respectively. For example, for the downlink bandwidth of the cell, the possible values include 5 MHz and 10 MHz, and the downlink bandwidth of the cell of 5 MHz corresponds to one system message option, and the index number of the system message option in the system message option set is defined as 1; the downlink bandwidth of the cell of 10 MHz Corresponding to a system message option, the system message option is defined to have an index number of 2 in the system message option set. The specific implementation of the system message option is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

For example, the possible values of the combination of the at least two system message parameters may respectively correspond to different system message options. For example, the combination of the cell downlink bandwidth and the SFN corresponds to one system message option, and the possible value of the downlink bandwidth of the cell includes 5 MHz and 10MHz, the possible values of SFN include subframe 1 and subframe 5, then the 5MHz cell downlink bandwidth and subframe 1 SFN correspond to a system message option, and the system message option is defined in the system message option set with an index number of 1; 5 MHz The downlink bandwidth of the cell and the SFN of the subframe 5 correspond to a system message option, and the index number of the system message option in the system message option set is defined as 2; the downlink bandwidth of the cell of 10 MHz and the SFN of the subframe 1 correspond to a system message option, and the definition is defined. The index number of the system message option in the system message option set is 3; the 10 MHz cell downlink bandwidth and the sub-frame 5 SFN correspond to a system message option, and the system message option is defined as an index number of 4 in the system message option set.

In the embodiment of the present application, the system message option determined by the terminal valid means that the terminal starts to use the determined system message option in the air interface.

Corresponding system message options, and validated system message options. Since the network side device and the terminal both store the system message option set, the network side device only needs to notify the terminal of the effective system message option index number in the system message option set, so that the terminal can take effect according to the received index number. The system message option, without the need to send the system message option itself, because the number of resources occupied by the index number of the system message option is much smaller than the amount of resources occupied by the system message option itself, thereby reducing the overhead of the air interface system message and reducing the air interface resource. s expenses. In addition, since the index number of the system message option occupies less resources, it can be carried in the existing signaling, so that the fixed resource transmission system message is not needed, and the overhead of the air interface resource is further reduced.

In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal receives the index number of the currently valid system message option sent by the network side device in the system message option set, and includes the following two possible implementation manners:

Manner 1: The terminal receives the index number of the current valid system message option sent by the network side device in the system message option set by performing blind detection on the set time-frequency resource.

In this mode, the index of the currently valid system message option sent by the network side device is received by the blind check, thereby saving the signaling overhead between the terminal and the network side device.

The terminal receives an index number of a currently valid system message option sent by the network side device on the time-frequency resource scheduled by the network side device.

In the manner of the network side device, the terminal receives the index number of the currently valid system message option sent by the network side device on the time-frequency resource scheduled by the network side device, thereby reducing the power consumption of the terminal.

In the embodiment of the present application, the system message option set is saved in the terminal, where the system message option set is pre-configured, and/or downloaded from the network side device.

Specifically, for the pre-configuration mode, when the terminal leaves the factory, the system message option set that the terminal may use is pre-configured. For example, for a dedicated MTC (Machine Type Communication) class device, such as a factory automation device, the system message option set that needs to be configured includes: possible system bandwidth, possible access point (cell) identity, and other system message options. For general MTC class devices, it is not necessary to configure system message options such as large area mobility related information (such as TAC), inter-RAT information, ETWS, MBMS, and the like.

The foregoing two methods may be used separately or in combination. For example, a set of system message options is pre-configured in the terminal, and when accessing the network side device, a possible system message option set is downloaded from the network side device, and the terminal is based on the slave network. The set of unified message options downloaded at the side device updates its own set of saved system message options.

In the embodiment of the present application, the system message option set includes system message options that may be used by all terminals, or system message options that the terminal may use.

Optionally, the system message option corresponding to the wireless parameter configuration required for the terminal to access the network may be stored in the terminal in a pre-configured manner, such as a random access sequence that may be used during initial access, so that the terminal can Quick access to the network shortens the time it takes for the terminal to access the network.

In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal downloads a system message option set from the network side device, and includes the following three possible trigger modes:

Mode 1. The terminal triggers the download of the system message option set when the terminal accesses the network, as follows:

During the process of establishing a connection with the network side device, the terminal receives a system message option set sent by the network side device.

In this manner, when the terminal establishes a connection with the network side device, the downloading of the system message option is implicitly triggered. Correspondingly, the network side device sends the system message option set to the terminal.

Mode 2: The network side device triggers the download of the system message option set, as follows:

After establishing the connection with the network side device, the terminal receives the system message option set sent by the network side device.

Mode 3: The terminal triggers the download of the system message option set, as follows:

The terminal sends a download request to the network side device, where the download request is used to download a system message option set that may be used; the terminal receives a system message option set returned by the network side device.

In this manner, the download request includes at least type information indicating the terminal, service type information indicating that the terminal can support, capability information of the terminal, and SIM type information of the terminal. A message.

Correspondingly, the network side device may send the system message option set that may be used by all the terminals to the terminal; or may use the system information that the terminal may use according to the terminal related information included in the download request. The set of options is sent to the terminal.

Based on any of the above embodiments, the method further includes:

Receiving, by the terminal, the first update message sent by the network side device, where the first update message includes an updated current valid system message option, or an updated current valid system message option in a system message option set Index number in ;

The terminal validates the updated currently valid system message option according to the first update message.

Optionally, if the first update message includes an updated current valid system message option, the method further includes:

The terminal has saved the system message option set that does not include the updated currently valid system message option, and the terminal updates the saved system message option set according to the received updated current valid system message option.

In the embodiment of the present application, the effective system message options in different areas may be different. For example, the SFN of the fully synchronized network is valid in multiple transmission point areas, and the MBMS related configuration information is valid in the MBSFN area. Therefore, the system message option may be According to their corresponding effective areas are divided into different combinations. When the area where the terminal is located changes, you need to update the system message options that have been activated on the terminal. The following three possible implementation methods are available:

In the mode A, when the network side device determines that the terminal is about to move out of the current area, the system message option is updated, as follows:

The terminal receives a second update message sent by the network side device, where the second update message includes a valid system message option in a neighboring area of the current location of the terminal, or a valid system message option in the neighboring area. The index number in the system message option set; after determining that it enters the neighboring area, the valid system message option in the neighboring area is validated.

In this manner, if the second update message includes an index number of a valid system message option in the neighboring area, The terminal first determines an effective system message option in the neighboring area according to the index number, and then validates the valid system message option in the neighboring area.

In this manner, the second update message further includes indication information for indicating a valid area corresponding to the system message option. For example, cell identification information of the effective area, and the like.

In this manner, optionally, if the second update message includes a valid system message option in the neighboring area, the method further includes:

In this manner, the first update request response further includes indication information indicating a valid area corresponding to the system message option.

In this manner, optionally, the first update request response includes a valid system message option in the neighboring area, and the method further includes:

If the system message option set saved by the terminal does not include a valid system message option in the neighboring area, the terminal updates the saved system message option set according to the valid system message option in the received neighboring area.

Mode C: After the terminal determines that it has entered the new area, it triggers the update of the system message option, as follows:

After determining that the user enters the new area, the terminal sends a second update request to the network side device, and receives a second update request response sent by the network side device, where the second update request response includes the new area. A valid system message option, or an index number in the system message option set of the valid system message option in the new zone; validating system message options in the new zone in response to the update request response.

In this manner, the first update request response further includes indication information indicating a valid area corresponding to the system message option.

In this manner, optionally, the second update request response includes a valid system message option in the new area, and the method further includes:

The terminal has saved the system message option set that does not include the valid system message option in the new area, and the terminal updates the saved system message option according to the received system message option in the new area. Set Hehe.

Since the network side device and the terminal both store the system message option set, the network side device only needs to notify the terminal of the effective system message option index number in the system message option set, so that the terminal can take effect according to the received index number. The system message option, without the need to send the system message option itself, because the number of resources occupied by the index number of the system message option is much smaller than the amount of resources occupied by the system message option itself, thereby reducing the overhead of the air interface system message and reducing the air interface resource. s expenses. In addition, since the index number of the system message option occupies less resources, it can be carried in the existing signaling, so that the fixed resource transmission system message is not needed, and the overhead of the air interface resource is further reduced.

In an implementation, the network side device sends the index number of the currently valid system message option in the system message option set to the terminal, including the following four possible implementation manners:

Transmitting, by the network side device, the index number of the currently valid system message option in the system message option set to the terminal by using a multicast manner; or

It should be noted that, in order to enable the terminal to obtain the system message option, the system may have some system message options, such as the air interface mandatory parameter when the terminal initially accesses the network, such as the SFN, which is still periodically sent by means of broadcast.

It can be seen from the above embodiment that when the network side device configures the system message set and the system message option index number for the terminal, the network side device can configure the system message option and its index number for the terminal multiple times according to different situations;

Correspondingly, the terminal also stores the system message option and its index number configured by the network side device for the terminal multiple times to form a system message set, and selects the current system message option selected by the network side device for the terminal when needed.
