The drawings herein are for the purpose of incorporating into the specification, forming a portion of the present specification, showing embodiments consistent with the present disclosure, and explaining the principles of the present disclosure together with the specification.

Here, exemplary embodiments will be described in detail and the examples are shown in the drawings. In the following drawing-related description, unless otherwise indicated, the same reference numerals in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Conversely, they are merely examples of devices and methods according to some aspects of the invention, detailed in the appended claims.

FIG. 1A is a flowchart of a data transmission method shown based on an exemplary embodiment, and FIG. 1B is a scene diagram of a data transmission method shown based on an exemplary embodiment. The data transmission method can be applied to the UE, and as shown in FIG. 1A, the data transmission method includes the following steps 101-102.

Step 101: When the length of the cache data of the user apparatus is equal to or greater than the first predetermined threshold value, the cache data is divided by a predetermined method to obtain two groups of data.

In one embodiment, the cached data may refer to a data packet transmitted by the UE to the base station over the uplink. When the network load of the wireless network in which the UE is located is relatively heavy, the data packets that the UE needs to upload are cached in the cache memory of the UE to form the cached data described in the present disclosure. The cache memory is a packet data convergence protocol (Packet).
It may be a cache memory of Data Convergence Protocol (abbreviated as PDCP). In one embodiment, the length of the cached data must not exceed the length of data that the cache memory can normally cache.

In one embodiment, the first predetermined threshold may be determined based on the state of the network load of the cell in which the UE is located. If the length of the cached data is greater than the first predetermined threshold, it means that congestion will occur in the wireless network currently being accessed by the UE. In order to ensure that the UE can transmit the cached data to the base station, the cached data is divided into packets by a predetermined method to obtain two groups of data. For example, the data of the first group and the data of the second group. For example, when the length of the cache data is 12 bits and the first predetermined threshold is 10 bits, the length of the cache data is larger than the first predetermined threshold. Therefore, the cache data is divided into packets by a predetermined method. good. In one embodiment, the predetermined method may be a packet division rule preset between the UE and the base station, and the cache data may be divided into packets in units of bits. In one embodiment, for a given method, the data of the first half bits of the cache data is divided into the data of the first group, the data of the second half bits is divided into the data of the second group, for example, the preceding 6 bits of 12 bits. May be the data of the first group of the present disclosure, and the latter 6 bits may be the data of the second group of the present disclosure.

Step 102: Upload the data of the two groups to the base station via the mobile network and the wireless local area network, respectively.

In one embodiment, for example, when two groups of data are referred to as first group data and second group data, the UE is in a data packet formed by the first group data and the second group data, respectively. , An identifier to identify the data in the first group and the data in the second group, and to identify the position of the data in the first group and the data in the second group in all the data currently required to be transmitted by the UE. You can add the position identifier of. This allows the base station to identify the data of the first group and the data of the second group based on these identifiers, and the data of the first group and the data of the second group are UE-based based on these identifiers. Can be reconstructed into the cache data originally generated by.

In an exemplary scene, as shown in FIG. 1B, the mobile network is an LTE network, and the base station is exemplified by an advanced base station (eNB) as an example, and in a scene as shown in FIG. 1B. , ENB 10, UE 20, wireless access point (Access Point: abbreviated as AP) 30, where the three cells covered by the eNB 10 are cells 11, cells 12, and cells 13, respectively, where the UE 20 is a cell. It is at 11. In one case, the UE 20 needs to transmit data to the eNB 10 via the first link 141 in the LTE network, and the data to be transmitted by the UE 20 is cached in the cache memory due to the heavy network load of the cell 11. Whether the length of the cached data in the cache memory (eg, 12 bits) is greater than the first predetermined threshold (eg, 10 bits) based on the proposed technique of the present disclosure in order to improve the data transmission rate of the communication system. When the length of the cache data is larger than the first predetermined threshold value, the UE 20 divides the cache data into the front 6 bits and the rear 6 bits, the front 6 bits are the data of the first group, and the rear 6 bits are the first. Two groups of data, after which the front 6 bits are transmitted to the eNB 10 via the first link 141 of the LTE network, the rear 6 bits are transmitted to the AP30 via the WLAN second link 142, and the AP30 is the rear 6 bits. Is transmitted to the eNB 10. When the LTE network load of the cell 11 is larger, the UE is controlled to transmit data to the eNB 10 via the second link 142 of the WLAN based on the first predetermined threshold value, and the data transmission pressure of the first link 141 is controlled. Effectively alleviates.

Since the mobile network and the WLAN are two independent communication networks, when the network load of the mobile network is larger, according to the present embodiment, the cache data is stored in the UE based on the above steps 101 and 102. Controlled to have some data uploaded to the base station over the mobile network and some data uploaded to the base station over the WLAN, thereby better integrating the mobile network and the source of the WLAN. This can solve the problem of low WLAN network utilization in the prior art, significantly reduce the network load when transmitting data via a mobile network, and improve the data transmission performance of the UE.

In one embodiment, the data transmission method is
When the length of the cache data is smaller than the first predetermined threshold, the signal strength of the mobile network and the wireless local area network is determined.
If the signal strength of the mobile network is greater than or equal to the signal strength of the wireless local area network, the cache data may be transmitted over the mobile network.
If the signal strength of the mobile network is less than the signal strength of the wireless local area network, it further includes transmitting cached data over the wireless local area network.

In one embodiment, the data transmission method is

Further, the cache data may be stored in the cache memory of the packet data convergence protocol.

For a specific data transmission method, refer to the embodiment described later.

So far, the above method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can better integrate the mobile network and the source of the WLAN, solve the problem of low network utilization of the WLAN in the prior art, and the mobile network. It greatly reduces the network load when transmitting data via, and improves the data transmission performance of the UE.

Hereinafter, the technical proposals provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described based on the specific embodiments.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart of another data transmission method shown based on an exemplary embodiment. The present embodiment utilizes the above method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure to illustrate how data is transmitted when the length of the cached data is smaller than the first predetermined threshold, and FIG. 1B. Illustratively described with reference to, including the following steps, as shown in FIG.

Step 201: It is determined whether or not the length of the cache data is equal to or greater than the first predetermined threshold value, and when the length of the cache data is equal to or greater than the first predetermined threshold value, the embodiment as shown in FIG. 1A above. Method Upload cached data to the base station based on the process. In this embodiment, detailed description will be omitted. If the length of the cache data is smaller than the first predetermined threshold, step 202 is executed.

Step 202: If the length of the cache data is less than the first predetermined threshold, the signal strength of the mobile network and the wireless local area network is determined.

Step 203: When the signal strength of the mobile network is equal to or higher than the signal strength of the wireless local area network, the cache data is transmitted via the mobile network.

Step 204: If the signal strength of the mobile network is less than the signal strength of the wireless local area network, the cache data is transmitted over the wireless local area network.

In an exemplary scene, as shown in FIG. 1B, when the length of the cache data in the cache memory of the UE 20 does not reach the first predetermined threshold when the UE 20 can access the mobile network and the WLAN at the same time, the UE 20 To ensure a better user experience, determine the links that the UE 20 should adopt based on the signal strength of the mobile network and WLAN, for example if the network signal of the mobile network is greater than or equal to the signal strength of the WLAN. Cache data may be transmitted to the eNB 10 via the first link 141, and if the network signal of the mobile network is less than the signal strength of the WLAN, the cache data may be transmitted to the eNB 10 via the second link 142, thereby. , UE 20 can ensure that the data is transmitted to the eNB 10 over the better uplink.

In this embodiment, by adjusting the mobile network and the network adopted by the UE based on the signal strength of the WLAN, it is possible to ensure that the UE transmits data via the optimum uplink, and the cache memory can be used. Avoid caching more data and effectively improve the data transmission performance of the UE.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart of another data transmission method shown based on an exemplary embodiment. The present embodiment utilizes the above method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure to illustrate how to obtain the first predetermined threshold and update the first predetermined threshold, and with reference to FIG. 1B. Illustratively, and as shown in FIG. 3, the following steps are included.

Step 301: Receive the broadcast signaling of the base station.

Step 302: Analyze the first predetermined threshold from broadcast signaling.

In step 301 and step 302, in one embodiment, the eNB 10 assigns one first predetermined threshold to a UE (eg, UE 20) in the cell according to the network load of the cell, and the first predetermined threshold is the default threshold of the UE 20. The UE 20 controls the cache data transmission method based on the first predetermined threshold value.

Step 303: Receive base station unicast signaling.

Step 304: The second predetermined threshold is analyzed from the unicast signaling, where the second predetermined threshold is smaller than the first predetermined threshold.

Step 305: Update the first predetermined threshold to the second predetermined threshold.

In step 303-step 305, if the UE 20 is a predetermined user level UE in the cell, the UE 20 can receive unicast signaling from the eNB 10 and sets a second predetermined threshold corresponding to the predetermined user level. It analyzes from unicast signaling and updates the first predetermined threshold to the second predetermined threshold. For example, when the first predetermined threshold value is 8 bits and the eNB 10 detects that the predetermined user level of the UE 20 is a platinum user, if the predetermined threshold value corresponding to the platinum user is 6 bits, the 6 bits are set to 6 bits. (Ii) It is transmitted to the UE 20 as a predetermined threshold value. After receiving the second predetermined threshold, the UE 20 updates the system default 8 bits to the 6 bits corresponding to the UE 20.

In the present embodiment, the second predetermined threshold is analyzed from the unicast signaling, and the second predetermined threshold is smaller than the first predetermined threshold. Therefore, when the cache data of the UE is smaller, the method process of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1A is used. The cached data can be uploaded to the base station, ensuring that high-level UEs quickly upload the cached data to the base station, and when transmitting cached data, differentiated transmission to different levels of user equipment. Realized the service.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart of another data transmission method shown by an exemplary embodiment. The data transmission method may be applied to eNB, the present embodiment will be exemplified with reference to FIG. 1B, and as shown in FIG. 4, the data transmission method includes the following steps 401-step 403. ..

Step 401: Determine the network load status of the user equipment in the cell.

In one embodiment, cell 11 will be illustrated as an example. The eNB 10 can statistic the amount of data transmitted by all UEs in the cell 11 via the mobile network, determines the network load state of the user device in the cell 11 based on the amount of data, and determines the network load state. May be, for example, a smooth data transmission state, a congested data transmission state, or the like.

Step 402: Determine the first predetermined threshold adopted by the user equipment in the cell based on the network load condition.

In one embodiment, if the data is transmitted smoothly, the first predetermined threshold may be set large, for example, by setting 12 bits, the UE 20 stably transmits the data to the eNB 10 via the mobile network. It can be ensured that the UE 20 avoids splitting the cached data into packets in situations where it is not needed, effectively improving the data transmission performance of the UE.

Step 403: The user equipment receives the data of two groups uploaded via the mobile network and the wireless local area network, respectively, where the data of the two groups are first determined by the length of the cache data of the user equipment. When it is equal to or more than the threshold value, the cache data is obtained by dividing the cache data into packets.

Step 404: Reconstruct the data of the two groups into the same data packet as the data format on the user device side.

In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1B, the eNB 10 is the second link 142 of the wireless local area network to which the date of the first group transmitted via the first link 141 of the mobile network and the AP30 are transferred. After receiving the data packet of the second group of data transmitted via, each identifier can be identified from the corresponding data packet, and these identifiers are formed by the data of the first group and the data of the second group, respectively. An identifier for identifying the data of the first group and the data of the second group added to the data packet, and the data of the first group and the data of the second group in all the data currently to be transmitted by the UE 20. Included in the identifier to identify the location of the data. The eNB 10 can accurately identify the first group data and the second group data based on these identifiers, and the first group data and the second group data are first generated by the UE based on these identifiers. It can be reconstructed into the cached data.

In this embodiment, the present embodiment causes the UE to control the data transmission method based on the first predetermined threshold based on the above steps 401-404, thereby better integrating the resources of the mobile network and the WLAN. This solves the problem of low WLAN network utilization in the prior art, significantly reduces the network load when transmitting data via a mobile network, and improves the data transmission performance of the UE. Through two independent mobile networks and a WLAN communication network, the data of the two groups obtained by dividing the cache data into packets by the UE is received, the cache data from the UE is reconstructed, and the data is processed. Ensures that data is not lost by, significantly reduces the network load when transmitting data over the mobile network, and improves the data transmission performance of the UE.

In one embodiment, the data transmission method is
Determining a user device that matches a predetermined user level from the user device in the cell, and
Determining a second predetermined threshold corresponding to a given user level,
Further including transmitting a second predetermined threshold value to a user apparatus matching a predetermined user level.

For a specific data transmission method, refer to the embodiment described later.

So far, the above method provided by embodiments of the present invention allows the UE to control the data transmission scheme based on a first predetermined threshold, which allows better integration of mobile network and WLAN resources. ..

FIG. 5 is a flowchart of yet another data transmission method shown based on an exemplary embodiment, wherein the first predetermined embodiment utilizes the above method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure. An example of how to update against a threshold and exemplary with reference to FIG. 1B will be exemplified, and as shown in FIG. 5, the following steps are included.

Step 501: Determine a user device that matches a predetermined user level from the user device in the cell.

Step 502: Determine the second predetermined threshold corresponding to the predetermined user level.

Step 503: Set the second predetermined threshold to be included in the unicast signaling.

Step 504: A second predetermined threshold is transmitted to a user device that matches a predetermined user level.

In an exemplary scene, as shown in FIG. 1B, when the eNB 10 determines that the UE 20 is at a predetermined user level in a cell, the eNB 10 determines a second predetermined threshold value corresponding to the predetermined user level. By transmitting the unicast signaling to the UE 20, the UE 20 is made to analyze the second predetermined threshold value from the unicast signaling and update the first predetermined threshold value to the second predetermined threshold value. For example, when the first predetermined threshold value is 8 bits and the eNB 10 detects that the predetermined user level of the UE 20 is a platinum user, if the predetermined threshold value corresponding to the platinum user is 6 bits, the 6 bits are set to 6 bits. (Ii) It is transmitted to the UE 20 as a predetermined threshold value, and after the UE 20 receives the second predetermined threshold value, the default 8 bits of the system are updated to the 6 bits corresponding to the UE 20.

In the present embodiment, the base station determines a user device matching a predetermined user level from the user device in the cell, and sets a second predetermined threshold corresponding to the predetermined user level to be included in the unicast signaling. Then, unicast signaling is transmitted to the corresponding UE, and since the second predetermined threshold is smaller than the first predetermined threshold, when the cache data of the UE is small, the cache data is generated based on the method process of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1A. It can be uploaded to the base station, ensuring that high-level UEs can quickly upload cached data to the base station, providing differentiated transmission services for different levels of user equipment when transmitting cached data. ..
