Description

Method, system and device for triggering random access
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of communications, and in particular, to a method, a system, and an apparatus for triggering random access.
Background
Currently, two random access procedures, namely a competitive random access procedure and a non-competitive random access procedure, mainly exist in a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system. Among the reasons for triggering the terminal (UE) to perform the competitive random access procedure, there are the following five triggering reasons: the first is used for the initial access of the UE in the RRC connection establishment process; second, the method is used for initial access of the UE in the RRC connection reestablishment process; thirdly, the UE is in a handover process; fourthly, downlink data used for carrying out an uplink synchronization process aiming at the UE reaches a network side; and fifthly, the method is used for the uplink data of the uplink synchronization process aiming at the UE to arrive at the network side. It can be seen that when the UE is in any of the above five reasons, the UE may be triggered to perform a competitive random access procedure. The reason for triggering the UE to perform the contention-free random access procedure is only applicable to the third and fourth trigger reasons.
Generally, in the prior art, after data in a downlink direction reaches a network side, the network side needs to know a current state of a UE first in order to transmit the data to the UE in a connected state, and if the UE is currently in an uplink synchronization state or the UE has an available SR resource for resource application, the network may directly perform downlink scheduling on the UE; otherwise, the network triggers the UE to perform a contention-free random access process through a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) signaling, where in the PDCCH signaling, the network side allocates a dedicated preamble resource to the UE, as shown in fig. 1. In fig. 1, if the network needs to trigger the UE to perform a contention-free random access procedure through PDCCH signaling, the method includes the following steps:
step 101, the network side allocates a dedicated preamble resource to the UE.
If the downlink data for multiple UEs in the same cell simultaneously arrives at the network side, the network side allocates dedicated preamble resources corresponding to the UEs, so that the dedicated preamble resources at this time are a set.
102, the UE initiates a random access request through the dedicated preamble resource.
Wherein, the random access request is a contention-free random access.
And step 103, the network side responds to the random access of the UE.
It can be seen that, in the prior art, a dedicated preamble resource is allocated to the UE through the network side, so that the UE can be triggered to perform a contention-free random access process. However, in an actual network, if downlink data for a plurality of UEs arrive in the same cell at the same time, or the size of the dedicated preamble resource allocated by the network side exceeds the set size of the dedicated preamble, the solution in the prior art has a problem, for example, when the size of the dedicated preamble resource allocated by the network side exceeds the set size of the dedicated preamble, the network side cannot allocate the dedicated preamble resource to the UE any more, so that if there is a need for the UE to allocate the dedicated preamble resource by the network side, the network side must wait for a certain dedicated preamble resource to be recovered before allocating the dedicated preamble resource to the UE, and execute the flow steps shown in fig. 1. Thus, the operation of initiating the random access by the terminal is delayed and triggered, and the quality of service (QoS) of the terminal is affected.

Detailed Description
It is considered that the base station can trigger the UE to perform corresponding operations, such as contention-free random access operation or contention random access operation, through PDCCH signaling. In the embodiment of the invention, a first indication domain is set in a PDCCH format, and the value of the first indication domain comprises a first identifier for triggering a terminal to execute random access operation and a second identifier for triggering the terminal to execute the operation required by normal uplink and downlink scheduling. In this way, the base station sets the current value of the first indication domain in the current PDCCH format according to the current service requirement, and sends the current PDCCH format to the terminal; then, the terminal analyzes the received current PDCCH format; judging whether the current value of the first indication domain in the current PDCCH format is the first identifier or the second identifier, and if the current value is the first identifier, triggering to execute random access operation; if the identifier is the second identifier, the operation required by normal uplink and downlink scheduling is triggered and executed, so that the delay of triggering the terminal to initiate the operation of random access in the prior art is eliminated, and the QoS of the terminal is improved.
In addition, the first indication field may have various forms, such as a dedicated indication field added in the PDCCH format; or the following steps: an indication field multiplexed with an indication field already set in the PDCCH format, and the like.
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the following embodiments and the accompanying drawings.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flowchart of a method for random access in an embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, a first indication field is set in a PDCCH format, and a value of the first indication field includes a first identifier indicating that a terminal is triggered to perform a random access operation, and a second identifier indicating that an operation required for the terminal to perform normal uplink and downlink scheduling is triggered. The operations required by the uplink and downlink scheduling specifically include: operations required for downlink scheduling and operations required for uplink scheduling; the operation required for downlink scheduling refers to receiving downlink data of a PDSCH channel on a specified downlink resource; the operation required for uplink scheduling refers to transmitting uplink data of the PUCCH channel in a designated uplink resource. As shown in fig. 2, the process includes the following steps:
step 201, the base station sets the current value of the first indication field in the current PDCCH format according to the current service requirement, and then sends the current PDCCH format to the terminal.
The current LTE conclusions are: when downlink data arrives, the PDCCH signaling can trigger the terminal to execute contention-free random access operation. Therefore, in order to make the embodiment of the present invention have a wider application scope, the method may further set a second indication field in the PDCCH format, and the value of the second indication field may include a third flag indicating that the contention based random access operation is performed and a fourth flag indicating that the contention free random access operation is performed. Thus, the step 201 may be: the base station sets the current value of the first indication domain and the current value of the second indication domain in the current PDCCH format according to the current service requirement, and then sends the current PDCCH format to the terminal.
In step 202, the terminal parses the received current PDCCH format.
Step 203, judging whether the current value of the first indication domain in the current PDCCH format is the first identifier or the second identifier, and if the current value is the first identifier, triggering to execute a random access operation; and if the identifier is the second identifier, triggering to execute the operation required by normal uplink and downlink scheduling.
In this embodiment, if the current PDCCH format for setting the current value of the first indication field and the current value of the second indication field is sent to the terminal in step 201, the step of triggering to execute the random access operation may include: judging whether the current value of the second indication domain in the current PDCCH format is the third identifier or the fourth identifier, and if the current value is the third identifier, triggering and executing competitive random access operation; and if the identifier is the fourth identifier, triggering to execute the contention-free random access operation. And further, the aim of correctly distinguishing and triggering competitive random access operation, non-competitive random access operation and operation required by normal uplink and downlink scheduling is fulfilled.
The first indication field may be a dedicated indication field added in a PDCCH format; or an indication field multiplexed with an indication field already set in the PDCCH format. The length of the dedicated indication field may be 1 bit, or may be at least one bit; the indication field may be an indication field multiplexed with an indication field already set in the PDCCH format, for example, an indication field multiplexed with an indication field already set in the PDCCH format for indicating resource allocation information, or an indication field multiplexed with an indication field already set in the PDCCH format for indicating dedicated preamble sequence allocation information and having the same length.
In addition, the second indication field may be an indication field multiplexed with an indication field already set in the PDCCH format; or a special indication field added in the PDCCH format. The following describes the PDCCH format in this embodiment by only setting the first indication field and the second indication field in the PDCCH format. Referring to fig. 3(a) to 3(d), fig. 3(a) to 3(d) are schematic diagrams of PDCCH formats in this embodiment.
As shown in fig. 3(a), the first indication field is: an indication field having a length of 3 bits is multiplexed with an indication field for indicating resource allocation information that has been set in the PDCCH format. And the second indication field is: a dedicated indication field of length 1 bit set specifically in the PDCCH format.
The value of the first indication field comprises a first identifier for triggering the terminal UE to execute the random access operation and a second identifier for triggering the UE to execute the operation required by the normal uplink and downlink scheduling. If the value of the first indication field is '000', the PDCCH format of the random access is represented; and when the first indication field takes a value other than '000', the PDCCH format represents the operation required for performing uplink and downlink scheduling. The value of the second indication field includes a third flag indicating that a contention based random access operation is performed, and a fourth flag indicating that a contention free random access operation is performed. For example, when the value of the second indication field is "0", the contention-free random access operation is triggered to be executed; when the value of the second indication field is '1', the execution of the contention random access operation is triggered. Thus, the base station sets the current value of the first indication domain and the current value of the second indication domain in the current PDCCH format according to the current service requirement, such as the current state of the UE; the current PDCCH format is then transmitted to the terminal. After the step 202, according to the current value of the first indication field, judging whether the current value of the first indication field in the current PDCCH format is a first identifier or a second identifier, and if the current value is the second identifier, triggering to execute the operation required by normal uplink and downlink scheduling; otherwise, triggering to execute random access operation. Wherein, triggering to execute the random access operation may include: judging whether the current value of the second indication domain in the current PDCCH format is a third identifier or a fourth identifier, and if the current value is the third identifier, triggering and executing competitive random access operation; and if the identifier is the fourth identifier, triggering to execute the contention-free random access operation.
As shown in fig. 3(b), the first indication field and the second indication field may be dedicated indication fields with a length of 1 bit, which are set in the PDCCH format. Thus, the base station sets the current value of the first indication domain and the current value of the second indication domain in the current PDCCH format according to the current service requirement, such as the current state of the UE; the current PDCCH format is then transmitted to the terminal. After the step 202, according to the current value of the first indication field, judging whether the current value of the first indication field in the current PDCCH format is a first identifier or a second identifier, and if the current value is the second identifier, triggering to execute the operation required by normal uplink and downlink scheduling; otherwise, triggering to execute random access operation. Wherein, triggering to execute the random access operation may include: judging whether the current value of the second indication domain in the current PDCCH format is a third identifier or a fourth identifier, and if the current value is the third identifier, triggering and executing competitive random access operation; and if the identifier is the fourth identifier, triggering to execute the contention-free random access operation. For example, when the value of the first indication field is "0", the operation required for executing the uplink and downlink scheduling is triggered; when the value of the first indication field is '1', the operation of random access is triggered. If the first operation executed by the terminal is a random access operation, determining a second operation executed by the terminal according to the current value of the second indication field, for example, when the current value is '0', triggering to execute a contention-free random access operation; when the current value is '1', the contention random access operation is triggered to be performed.
In fig. 3(c), the first indicator field is a dedicated indicator field having a length of 1 bit set in the PDCCH format. And the second indication field is an indication field that can be multiplexed with an indication field already set in the PDCCH format. Specifically, the dedicated preamble sequence allocation information is multiplexed in an indication domain with the same length as that of the dedicated preamble sequence allocation information set in the PDCCH format, so that the base station sets the current value of the first indication domain and the current value of the second indication domain in the current PDCCH format according to the current service requirement, such as according to the current state of the UE; the current PDCCH format is then transmitted to the terminal. After the step 202, the terminal determines the current value of the first indication field, and determines the operation to be triggered and executed according to the current value, if the current value of the first indication field is "0", the operation required by uplink and downlink scheduling is triggered and executed; when the current value of the first indication field is '1', the operation of random access is triggered. If the first operation executed by the terminal is a random access operation, judging whether the current value of the second indication domain in the current PDCCH format is the third identifier or the fourth identifier, and if the current value is the third identifier, triggering and executing a competitive random access operation; if the current value of the second indication domain is 'all 0', triggering to execute the contention-free random access operation; when the bit field value is not 'all 0', the contention random access operation is triggered to be executed, and at the moment, the second indication field can also carry the special leader sequence information.
In this embodiment of the present invention, if the first identifier includes a first bit value indicating a contention random access operation and a second bit value indicating a contention-free random access operation, in step 203, if it is determined that a current value of the first indication field in the current PDCCH format is the first bit value in the first identifier, the contention random access operation is triggered to be executed; if the current value of the first indication field in the current PDCCH format is determined to be the second bit value in the first identifier, the contention-free random access operation is triggered to be executed, which is specifically shown in fig. 3 (d).
As shown in fig. 3(d), a first indication field with a length of 2 bits is set in the PDCCH format, and the value of the first indication field includes a first flag indicating that the UE is triggered to perform a random access operation and a second flag indicating that the UE is triggered to perform an operation required for normal uplink and downlink scheduling, where the first flag includes a first bit value indicating a contention random access operation and a second bit value indicating a contention-free random access operation. Thus, in step 201, the base station sets the current value of the first indication field in the current PDCCH format according to the current service requirement, and sends the current PDCCH format to the terminal, and then after step 202, the terminal determines the operation to be triggered and executed according to the current value of the first indication field in the current PDCCH format, and if the value is "00", the operation to be triggered and executed is executed; when the value is '01', the competitive random access operation is triggered and executed; and when the value is '10' or '11', triggering to execute the operation required by the uplink and downlink scheduling.
In addition, there is no operation scheme for triggering the terminal to perform the competitive random access in the prior art. In the embodiment of the present invention, in order to implement an operation of triggering a UE to execute a competitive random access, a first identifier is used to indicate that the competitive random access operation is triggered to be executed, so that a base station sets a current value of a first indication field in a current PDCCH format according to a current service requirement, sends the current PDCCH format to a terminal, then executes step 202, and in step 203, if the current value of the first indication field in the current PDCCH format is the first identifier, the competitive random access operation is triggered to be executed. In this case, the first indication field may be a dedicated indication field with a length of 1 bit set in the PDCCH format; or the following steps: and the length of the indication domain multiplexed with other bit information to be indicated which is set in the PDCCH format is more than 1 bit.

The base station in this embodiment is configured to set a first indication field in a PDCCH format, where a value of the first indication field includes a first identifier indicating that the terminal is triggered to perform a random access operation, and a second identifier indicating that an operation required for triggering the terminal to perform normal uplink and downlink scheduling is performed; the terminal is used for setting the current value of a first indication domain in the current PDCCH format according to the current service requirement and sending the current PDCCH format to the terminal; the terminal is used for analyzing the received current PDCCH format; judging whether the current value of the first indication domain in the current PDCCH format is the first identifier or the second identifier, and if the current value is the first identifier, triggering to execute random access operation; and if the identifier is the second identifier, triggering to execute the operation required by normal uplink and downlink scheduling.
In a specific implementation, the base station may have a plurality of structural forms, and fig. 4 shows a schematic structural diagram of the base station. As shown in fig. 4, the base station includes: a first setting unit 401 and a transmitting unit 402.
