Detailed Description

The technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

With reference to an application scenario schematic diagram provided by this embodiment shown in fig. 1, a basic principle of the technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention is described, where the basic principle of the technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention is: when the APP actively initiates the transmission of the application layer service data, the APP informs the terminal control plane of the description information of the service data, and the terminal control plane performs a differentiated access process according to the description information of the service data; meanwhile, the terminal control plane informs the network side equipment of the description information of the service data, so that the network side equipment adopts different wireless resource allocation strategies according to different service requirements corresponding to the description information of the service data, and the utilization rate of network resources and user experience are improved.

Based on the above basic principle and the application scenario example shown in fig. 1, the following embodiments are proposed.

Example one

Referring to fig. 2, it illustrates a method for resource allocation provided by an embodiment of the present invention, and the method may include:

s201: the terminal receives service description information corresponding to the service to be transmitted notified by the APP;

s202: the terminal packages the service description information corresponding to the service to be transmitted in the random access request message or the wireless resource request message or the uplink message;

s203: and the terminal sends the random access request message or the wireless resource request message or the uplink message which is packaged with the service description information corresponding to the service to be transmitted to the network side equipment.

S204: the network side equipment analyzes the random access request message or the wireless resource request message or the uplink message to obtain service description information corresponding to the service to be transmitted;

s205: the network side equipment generates wireless resource configuration information corresponding to the service to be transmitted according to a preset configuration strategy and service description information corresponding to the service to be transmitted;

s206: the network side equipment carries out wireless resource allocation according to the wireless resource allocation information;

s207: the network side equipment sends the wireless resource configuration information to the terminal;

s208: and the terminal transmits the data of the service to be transmitted according to the wireless resources configured by the wireless resource configuration information.

It should be noted that, for step S201, when the APP actively triggers data service transmission, service description information related to the service to be transmitted at this time may be notified to a control plane of the terminal, where the service description information may be multidimensional description information and at least includes any one of the following: the service type information of the service to be transmitted, the minimum transmission rate required by the service to be transmitted, the minimum time delay requirement required by the service to be transmitted and the like.

The service type information may be standardized, for example, three service types proposed by 5G: massive connection service, low-delay ultra-reliable service and broadband service. Therefore, the network side equipment can adopt different strategies aiming at different service types, and correspondingly allocate different access resources, different system messages, different slices and other network resources; the terminal control plane may also use a corresponding Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH) to access resources according to the specific service type, or listen to different system message contents according to the specific service type. Therefore, the terminal control plane needs to know the service description information of the service to be transmitted of the APP, and then can perform corresponding processing;

in addition, the service type information may also be customized by the operator, such as Application identification (APP ID) information, which may be used to distinguish different kinds of APP information.

The Service description information may further include Service transmission requirement information such as a minimum transmission rate value and/or a minimum delay requirement required by the Service to be transmitted, and after the terminal notifies the network side device Of the Service description information, the network side device may allocate a corresponding network bandwidth according to the Service description information value, so as to ensure Quality Of Service (QoS) Of the transmission Service.

In a preferred implementation example, the service description information may be represented by level information having a mapping relationship with each item in the service description information, which requires that both the terminal-side and the network-side devices are configured with a level information policy function.

Correspondingly, when both the terminal side and the network side device are configured with the Class information Usage Class policy function, the step S202 may specifically include:

Correspondingly, step S204 may specifically include:

the network side device obtains each information parameter in the service description information filled in the service description information field, or each corresponding grade information in the service description information.

Correspondingly, step S205 may specifically include:

the network side equipment acquires the grade corresponding to the service to be transmitted according to the grade information;

and the network side equipment generates wireless resource configuration information corresponding to the service to be transmitted according to the grade corresponding to the service to be transmitted.

It should be noted that, in the process of implementing the above scheme specifically, the service description information corresponding to the service to be transmitted notified by the APP may include, but is not limited to, the following five cases:

situation one

When the multidimensional description information mode is adopted, the service description information notified by the APP may only include service type information. The service type information may be a type parameter. Such as standardized definition services like internet of things service, broadband service, low-delay ultra-reliable service, etc., after the terminal acquires the service type information, the terminal control plane can select corresponding PRACH access resources according to the specific service. And the terminal control plane adds a service description information field in the wireless access link establishment request message, wherein the content of the field only contains service type information. It can be understood that, in this embodiment, the radio access link establishment request message is a specific example of a radio resource access request, and details of this embodiment are not described herein.

Situation two

When a multidimensional description information mode is adopted, the service description information notified by the APP may only include service type information, where the service type information is Application ID information. The terminal control plane adds the service description information field in the wireless access link establishment request message, and the content of the field only contains the service type information. It can be understood that, if the APP service is customized, the network side device (e.g. the eNodeB) may guarantee the access success rate according to the level corresponding to the APP ID.

Situation three

When the multidimensional description information mode is adopted, the service description information notified by the APP may only include minimum transmission rate information. At this time, the terminal notifies the network side device of the minimum transmission rate value required by the data service to be transmitted, so that the situation that the network side device allocates resources unreasonably is avoided. For example, in combination with the minimum transmission rate reported by the terminal, the network resources are reasonably and optimally allocated, so that the situation that the transmission speed of the video service is influenced due to low bandwidth is avoided, the phenomenon of resource waste caused by too much bandwidth allocated to the voice service is avoided, and the performance of the whole network and the user experience effect are favorably improved.

For example, many APP software grades users, such as ordinary users, silver users, gold users, and the like. In order to ensure the experience of the VIP user, the APP may combine the transmission service and the user level information to provide different performance requirements, such as a minimum transmission rate, a minimum delay requirement, and the like.

The terminal control plane adds a service description information field in the wireless access link establishment request message, and the content of the field can only contain minimum transmission rate information.

Situation four

When a multidimensional description information mode is adopted, the service description information message content notified by the APP can simultaneously include service type information and minimum transmission rate information. The specific information-carrying content is determined according to the APP configuration and the service property to be transmitted. The terminal control plane adds service description information field in the wireless access link establishment request message, and the content includes service type information and minimum transmission rate information.

Situation five

And when a grade information Usage Class strategy is adopted, the terminal control plane maps the corresponding Usage Class according to the content of the APP service description information. The terminal control plane adds a service description information field in the wireless access link establishment request message, and the content comprises the Usage class information, so that the network side equipment adopts different strategies according to the Usage class. For example, when the Usage Class level is higher, the QoS bearer with high quality can be preferentially accessed and allocated.

Through the five situations, after receiving the radio access link establishment request message, the network side device performs configuration of radio resources according to the content in the service description information field, which may specifically include but is not limited to: obtaining the access priority of the service to be transmitted, selecting a network protocol stack architecture corresponding to the service to be transmitted, and allocating appropriate network wireless resources for the service to be transmitted.

In another preferred implementation example, the service description information may be characterized by classification information having a mapping relationship with all items in the service description information, which requires that both the terminal-side and the network-side devices are configured with a classification information policy function.

Correspondingly, when both the terminal-side device and the network-side device are configured with the classification information policy function, the step S202 may specifically include:

Correspondingly, step S204 may specifically include:

and the network side equipment acquires the classification information which corresponds to all items in the service description information filled in the service description information field in a unified way.

Correspondingly, step S205 may specifically include:

the network side equipment acquires the category corresponding to the service to be transmitted according to the classification information;

and the network side equipment generates wireless resource configuration information corresponding to the service to be transmitted according to the category corresponding to the service to be transmitted.

In this embodiment, after receiving description information related to a service and sent by a terminal, a network side device allocates radio resources according to a terminal APP service requirement represented by the description information related to the service, so as to improve a utilization rate of network resources and provide differentiated services.

Example two

Based on the same technical concept of the foregoing embodiment, referring to fig. 3, it shows a resource allocation method applied to a terminal side according to an embodiment of the present invention, which may include:

s301: the terminal receives service description information corresponding to the service to be transmitted notified by the APP;

s302: and the terminal sends the service description information corresponding to the service to be transmitted to the network side equipment.

For the technical solution shown in fig. 3, the service description information at least includes any one of the following items: the service type information of the service to be transmitted, the minimum transmission rate required by the service to be transmitted and the minimum time delay requirement required by the service to be transmitted.

For the technical solution shown in fig. 3, the service description information may be encapsulated in a random access request message or a radio resource request message or an uplink message. In a specific implementation process, taking the random access request message as an example, referring to fig. 4, the method may include:

s401: the terminal acquires a trigger message of data service transmission notified by the APP;

s402: the terminal judges whether the trigger message carries service description information or not; when the trigger message does not carry the service description information, turning to S403; when the trigger message carries the service description message, go to S404;

s403: a terminal defines a wireless resource access link connection request message according to the existing flow;

s404: the terminal analyzes the service description information content and adds a service description information field for filling the service description information content in the wireless resource access link connection request message;

s405: the terminal initiates a signaling flow and sends a wireless resource access link connection request message to the network side equipment.

For step S404 in fig. 4, taking the level information respectively corresponding to each item in the service description information as an example, referring to fig. 5, the method may specifically include:

s4041: and the terminal judges whether the network side equipment is configured with a Class information Usage Class selection strategy or not. If so, go to step 4044; if not, analyzing the service description information content in the trigger message;

s4042: when the service type information carried by the service description information content is the standardized definition service type information or Application ID information, the terminal adds a service description information field in the wireless resource access link connection request message, wherein the field contains the service type information;

s4043: if the service information content carries the minimum transmission rate information, the service description information field added by the terminal in the radio resource access link connection request message needs to contain the minimum transmission rate information,

s4044: the terminal maps the APP service information content to the corresponding UsageClass grade according to the UsageClass selection strategy, and the service description information field added in the wireless resource access link connection request message by the terminal only contains UsageClass information.

s603: and the network side equipment performs wireless resource configuration according to the wireless resource configuration information and sends the wireless resource configuration information to the terminal.

For the technical solution shown in fig. 6, in a specific implementation process, the service description information is encapsulated in a random access request message or a radio resource request message or an uplink message sent by the terminal. Taking the random access request message as an example, referring to fig. 7, a specific implementation process of the technical scheme shown in fig. 6 may include:

s701: network side equipment receives a wireless access link connection request message reported by a terminal;

specifically, the radio access link connection request message is a specific implementation example of the radio resource access request.

S702: the network side equipment judges whether the wireless access link connection request message carries service description information content; if not, go to step S703; if the portable terminal is carried, go to step S704;

s703: the network side equipment allocates wireless resources according to the existing flow and the wireless access link connection request message to generate wireless resource configuration information;

s704: the network side equipment analyzes the service description information content, selects proper wireless resources according to the service description information content and generates wireless resource configuration information;

it should be noted that the service description information may be encapsulated in a newly added service description information field in the radio access link connection request message; specifically, the service description information may be characterized by each information parameter in the service description information, by each level information corresponding to each item in the service description information, or by classification information corresponding to all items in the service description information in a unified manner.

S705: and the network side equipment sends the wireless resource configuration information to the terminal.

For step S704 in fig. 7, the method may specifically include:

if the service description information content contains service type information, for example: massive access services, broadband services, low-delay ultra-reliable services or videos and the like, and corresponding wireless network resources are distributed to the terminals according to respective service types;

and if the service description information content also contains the minimum transmission rate, QoS bearing can be distributed according to the minimum transmission rate value and by combining the service type;

and if the service description information content is Usage Class information, calculating the corresponding user grade according to the Usage Class, and selecting the adaptive QoS bearing.

Example four

Based on the same technical concept of the foregoing embodiments, the present embodiment explains the technical solutions of the foregoing embodiments by the following specific embodiments.

Detailed description of the preferred embodiment

For the implementation of the technical solution of the foregoing embodiment, specifically, when the terminal downloads and installs the APP software, whether to start using the resource allocation scheme described in the foregoing embodiment may be set by receiving a setting instruction of a user. If the use is started, the APP informs the terminal of the service description information corresponding to the service to be transmitted, so that the terminal adds the service description information in the wireless resource access request.

Detailed description of the invention

The operator can use a Class information Usage Class selection strategy, so that the terminal can map the service description information of the APP to the Usage classes of different classes. For example, when the service type information included in the service description information content is a standardized service, the mapping manner includes: mapping mass connection service to Usage Class1, mapping low-delay ultra-reliable service to Usageclass2 and mapping broadband service to Usageclass 3; when the service type information contained in the service description information content is Application ID information, mapping according to the APP type, wherein the mapping mode comprises the following steps: the game APP is mapped to a Usage Class1, the friend APP (such as QX \ micro X and the like) is mapped to a Usage Class1, the video APP (such as love X art, excellent X and the like) is mapped to a Usage Class3, and the health safety APP (such as medical monitoring, fire monitoring and the like) is mapped to a Usage Class4 …; if the service description information content contains the minimum transmission rate information required by the service to be transmitted, the mapping mode is as follows: the mapping at 10Mbps or less is Usage Class1, and the mapping from 10Mbps to 50Mbps is Usage Class2 …. When the service description message sent by the APP to the terminal has both the service type information and the minimum transmission rate information, the minimum numerical value of the service description information of different dimensions of the service to be transmitted after mapping through the service Class can be selected as the final service Class of the service to be transmitted. When the terminal initially accesses the network, the network side device configures the radio resource corresponding to the Usage Class to the terminal through signaling interaction, as shown in fig. 8, the network side device may configure the radio resource corresponding to the Usage Class of the service to be transmitted to the terminal through an attachment request interaction process of the terminal.

Detailed description of the preferred embodiment

When the APP has service data to be sent, a notification is sent to a terminal control plane to apply for wireless network resources. The notification message carries information defining the service type by standardization (for example, low-delay ultra-reliable service), the terminal carries service description information in the link connection request message, and the content of the service description information is the service type information. The network side device allocates radio resources according to the service type, as shown in fig. 9.

The notification message carries Application ID information (for example, the augmented reality AR uses APP software). The terminal carries service description information in the link connection request message, and the content of the service description information is service type information. The network side device parses the service type, and if the service type is a higher-level service, a higher transmission rate must be provided to satisfy the user experience effect, as shown in fig. 10.

Detailed description of the preferred embodiment

When the APP has service data to be sent, the minimum transmission rate required by user experience can be calculated according to different service types (such as online video service), and then a notification is sent to a terminal control plane to apply for wireless network resources. Only the minimum transmission rate information is carried in the notification message. The terminal carries service description information in the link connection request message, and the content of the service description information is minimum transmission rate information. The network side device provides an adapted QoS bearer according to the minimum transmission rate, as shown in fig. 11.

Detailed description of the preferred embodiment
