In step 301, assistant base station is increased request message and sent to purpose assistant base station by master base station.
The main plot of UE on base station receives the measurement report of user, if on neighbouring assistant base station some cell letter Number quality is met the requirements, then the main plot on master base station determines to establish supplementary cell on the assistant base station, and passes through doubly-linked Fetch sharing data transmission.For example, base station is determined some or certain several DRB originally on MeNB also by auxiliary base It stands to send data, that is, establishes Split carrying.When the base station where PCell determines to increase a cell as SCell, Base station where base station to the SCell where PCell sends assistant base station and increases request message.
Master base station can also determine to send control signaling also by assistant base station and (to be sent to the RRC information of UE). Master base station replicates control signaling, and a duplicate is sent to UE by master base station, another duplicate is sent to UE by assistant base station. The reliability of transmission can be improved in this way.
Master base station sends the message that assistant base station increases request to assistant base station, the message carry following one or Multiple information:
(1) ability of UE, including wireless access capability, cryptographic capabilities;
(2) information for the Deta bearer established on assistant base station, the type comprising Deta bearer (e.g. hold by segmentation Carry or SCG carrying or SCG segmentation carrying), the E-RAB of Deta bearer mark and the corresponding quality requirement of E-RAB.Such as The type of fruit Deta bearer be segmentation carrying, then the information of the Deta bearer also include master base station distribution be used to receive uplink The GTP tunnel number of data.If the type of Deta bearer is SCG carrying or SCG segmentation carrying, the letter of the Deta bearer The GTP tunnel number that is used to receive upstream data of the breath also comprising core net SGW distribution;
(3) information for dividing signaling, the information for dividing signaling includes the mark of segmentation signaling.Segmentation signaling can be made It is that a kind of new bearing mode configures on assistant base station, divides the type for the segmentation signaling that the mark of signaling shows, such as marks Knowing segmentation signaling out as SRB1 or SRB2.By segmentation signaling mark, its corresponding user plane can be established in X2 interface Or control plane.Or segmentation signaling is configured on assistant base station in the way of dividing Deta bearer, assistant base station handle Divide signaling as a kind of segmentation Deta bearer, assistant base station be not aware that transmitted on the tunnel X2 be segmentation signaling, still Deta bearer.Here, the mark for dividing signaling refers to be identified using the E-RAB of Deta bearer, and master base station generates the mark, and Save the corresponding relationship of the E-RAB and signaling;
(4) the corresponding qos requirement of segmentation signaling.For the data that core net is sent, the quality requirement (QoS) of data is core The authentication policy server configuration of heart net, master base station is sent to by core net, then master base station is sent to assistant base station.It is right In RRC signaling, without corresponding qos requirement.Master base station needs to be generated qos requirement corresponding to RRC signaling as its own, such as It determines that its corresponding quality (QoS) requires according to the type (i.e. SRB1 or SRB2) of segmentation signaling, allows assistant base station according to this Qos requirement establishes corresponding user plane, such as establishes RLC/MAC protocol layer.Assistant base station will also distribute user on X2 interface The transport layer information of plane carries for example, dividing to each signaling, and assistant base station distributes a GTP tunnel number;
(5) divide the configuration information of signaling.For the data that core net is sent, the quality requirement (QoS) of data is core The authentication policy server configuration of net, QoS is sent to by master base station by core net, then master base station is sent to auxiliary base It stands.For RRC signaling, core net does not configure corresponding qos requirement.(i.e. SRB1 is also according to the type of segmentation signaling for master base station It is SRB2) determine its corresponding specific configuration information, master base station can be the configuration information of segmentation signaling, for example including uplink RLC configuration, downlink RLC configuration, priority, logic channel configuration etc. RLC configuration information, sent to assistant base station, it is auxiliary It helps base station and configures corresponding user plane according to the configuration information, such as establish RLC/MAC protocol layer.(6) it indicates information, refers to Show assistant base station, segmentation signaling bear using it is no be default configuration (default configuration), or instruction is auxiliary Base station is helped, segmentation signaling bear is using default configuration information or explicit configuration.When UE access master base station, main base It stands and is carried for UE configuration signal, specifically, SRB1 and SRB2 can be lacked using default configuration or using explicit configuration The configuration information of province has preparatory definition in LTE specification, if using default configuration information, specific parameter, such as RLC Configuration information, no need to send give UE, UE that value predetermined is also used in LTE radio interface specification to put down to configure user Face.If using explicit configuration, master base station needs to configure specific parameter, such as the configuration information of RLC.When on assistant base station When configuration segmentation signaling bear, master base station needs that assistant base station, segmentation signaling bear is told to configure using which kind of mode.Refer to Show that information can be set into using default configuration, or is arranged to explicitly configure.When being arranged to default configuration, base is assisted It stands using value predetermined in LTE specification and configures the protocol layers such as RLC, MAC.If being arranged to explicitly configure, master base station is wanted The configuration information of specific user plane, such as configuration information shown in (5), it is sent to assistant base station.(5) it is configured shown in Information may be embodied in RRC receptacle, and RRC container is one that RRC relevant information is sent between master base station and assistant base station Container, the inside contain the configuration information of the RRC of master base station configuration.Assistant base station can parse the RRC that receptacle includes and match Confidence breath, obtains the configuration information of SRB1 and/or SRB2.Or configuration information shown in (5) is included in RRC container exterior, leads to Information element configuration information shown in carrying (5) inside the message for increasing request is crossed, such assistant base station does not need to parse The RRC configuration information that receptacle includes.
Or regulation assistant base station knows to establish and disappear when dividing signaling bear to get to assistant base station foundation request The mark of the segmentation signaling bear carried in breath, such as SRB1 or SRB2, assistant base station default is using defined in LTE specification Default configuration information configures user plane, comes for example, by using default RLC configuration parameter defined in LTE radio interface specification Configure rlc protocol layer.In this way, to segmentation signaling bear on assistant base station, such as SRB1, user plane configuration may be with master base stations The configuration information of the upper carrying is different, and the configuration of user plane is not optimal, and advantage is the reduction of master base station and auxiliary Signalling between base station.
In step 302, assistant base station is increased response message and sent to master base station by assistant base station.
Assistant base station determines the configuration information carried on UE, purpose base station is on UE according to QoS the and UE ability of DRB The configuration information of auxiliary carrying or secondary cell is included in RRC container, and the container is transmitted to UE by master base station.UE according to The configuration is arranged each layer protocol in the end UE, such as the agreement of RLC, MAC layer.Message also carries DRB mark or X2 user plane Mark and the corresponding transport layer information of the user plane (for example, Tunnel Identifier).Assistant base station increases response message and carries One or more following information:
(1) RRC container, wherein containing assistant base station to the configuration information of UE.RRC agreement on assistant base station determines The configuration information of UE is included in RRC container, and is sent to UE by master base station by configuration information of the Deta bearer on UE. Can also be comprising the configuration information of segmentation signaling bear in RRC container, such as the mark comprising dividing signaling and its is corresponding The configuration information of RLC/MAC;The configuration information of corresponding RLC/MAC can be configured using default configuration or using explicit, Default configuration or explicit configuration are described in above step, are omitted herein.
(2) information of the received Deta bearer of assistant base station, wherein comprising Deta bearer mark (E-RAB ID) and The GTP tunnel number for being used to receive downlink data that assistant base station is distributed by Deta bearer;
(3) information of the received segmentation signaling bear of assistant base station, mark and assistant base station comprising signaling bear are The GTP tunnel number for being used to receive downlink signaling data that signaling bear is distributed.Message carries the segmentation signaling being successfully established and holds The mark of load, and/or the mark of the signaling bear comprising establishing failure.
In step 303, master base station sends RRC reconfiguration request to UE.
Master base station does not parse RRC container, and RRC container is transmitted to UE.Master base station can match UE plus its own Confidence breath, and the configuration information of itself and assistant base station is sent jointly into UE.
In step 304, UE, which reconfigures RRC, completes message to master base station transmission.
After UE configuration successful, response message is sent to master base station.The response message may be embodied in sent in 302 steps Configuration information response, that is, contain the response to master base station configuration information, also contain to assistant base station configuration information Response.If necessary, UE also needs to carry out random access procedure with new assistant base station, and carries out together with new assistant base station Step.After synchronization, assistant base station can start to send data to UE.
In step 305, master base station, which reconfigures RRC, completes message to assistant base station transmission.
By the configuration at the end UE, successful information notifies assistant base station to master base station.Because UE is confirmation message to master base station It sends, so master base station needs confirmation message to be transmitted to assistant base station.If master base station cannot parse UE to assistant base station The response of configuration information, master base station can also turn UE to the response of the configuration information of assistant base station by way of RRC container Issue assistant base station.
Within step 306, master base station is to core net transmitting path handover request.The path switching message is for certain carryings Type is unwanted, such as establishes the segmentation carrying on master base station, is that no need to send the message.For establishing auxiliary The SCG carrying or SCG segmentation carrying helped on base station is needed.Message carries the GTP tunnel number of assistant base station distribution, uses To receive the downlink data of core net transmission.
So far, divide signaling bear and assistant base station loading establishing process is completed.
Fig. 4 shows the flow chart of second embodiment according to the present invention.
Under the embodiment, master base station is LTE base station, and assistant base station is all the base station the new access technology of 5G (NR), Huo Zhezhu Base station and assistant base station are all the base stations the new access technology of 5G (NR).Interface between base station is Xn interface, and each base station connects To the core net of 5G, wherein the control plane of base station is connected to authentication locomotive function entity (abbreviation AMF), and the user of base station Plane is connected to user-plane function (abbreviation UPF).
In step 401, assistant base station is increased request and sent to purpose assistant base station by master base station.
The main plot of UE on base station receives the measurement report of user, if on neighbouring assistant base station some cell letter Number quality is met the requirements, then the main plot on master base station determines to establish supplementary cell on the assistant base station, and passes through doubly-linked Fetch sharing data transmission.For example, base station is determined some or a few a Deta bearers originally on master base station MgNB Data are sent also by assistant base station, that is, establish Split carrying.When the base station where PCell determines that increasing a cell makees When for SCell, the base station where the base station to the SCell where PCell sends assistant base station and increases request message.
Master base station can also determine to send control signaling also by assistant base station and (to be sent to the RRC information of UE). Master base station replicates control signaling, and a duplicate is sent to UE by master base station, another duplicate is sent to UE by assistant base station.
