Abstract

Communication transmission methods and systems are provided. Firstly, a base station broadcasts a message to a user equipment, wherein the message includes a priority threshold value. Then, the user equipment compares a priority value of the user equipment with the priority threshold value. Then, an initiation of an access procedure of the user equipment is disabled when the priority value of the user equipment is below the priority threshold value.

Claims (45)

1. A communication transmission method, comprising:

broadcasting, by a base station, a message to a user equipment, wherein the message includes a priority threshold value;

comparing, by the user equipment, a priority value of the user equipment with the priority threshold value; and

disabling an initiation of an access procedure of the user equipment when the priority value of the user equipment is below the priority threshold value,

wherein the priority threshold value is adjusted by the base station according to a loading status in the base station,

wherein the message further includes a waiting duration, and when the priority threshold value is adjusted to be less than the priority value of the user equipment, the access procedure of the user equipment is performed by the user equipment after the waiting duration.

2. The communication transmission method of claim 1 , further comprising:

initiating, by the user equipment, the access procedure of the user equipment when the priority value of the user equipment exceeds the priority threshold value.

3. The communication transmission method of claim 1 , wherein the waiting duration is set by the base station.

4. The communication transmission method of claim 1 , wherein the waiting duration is a random value.

5. A communication transmission method for a base station, comprising:

broadcasting a message to a plurality of user equipment, wherein the message includes a priority threshold value and a plurality of waiting durations for each of the user equipment; and

adjusting the priority threshold value according to a loading status in the base station,

wherein the access procedures of the plurality of user equipment are initiated according to the waiting durations when the priority threshold value is adjusted to be less than the priority values of the plurality of user equipment.

6. The communication transmission method of claim 5 , wherein the waiting durations are set by the base station.

7. The communication transmission method of claim 5 , wherein the waiting durations are different random values.

8. A communication transmission method for a user equipment comprising:

receiving a message from a base station, wherein the message includes a priority threshold value and a wait duration;

comparing a priority value of the user equipment with the priority threshold value; and

disabling an initiation of an access procedure of the user equipment when the priority value of the user equipment is below the priority threshold value,

wherein the access procedures of the user equipment are initiated according to the waiting duration when the priority threshold value is adjusted to be less than the priority values of the user equipment by the base station.

9. The communication transmission method of claim 8 , further comprising:

initiating the access procedure of the user equipment when the priority value of the user equipment exceeds the priority threshold value.

10. A communication transmission system, comprising:

a base station, configured to broadcast a message, wherein the message includes a priority threshold value; and

a user equipment, configured to receive the message and compare a priority value of the user equipment with the priority threshold value,

wherein the user equipment disables an initiation of an access procedure of the user equipment, when the priority value of the user equipment is below the priority threshold value,

wherein the priority threshold value is adjusted by the base station according to a loading status in the base station,

wherein the message further includes a waiting duration, and when the priority threshold value is adjusted to be less than the priority value of the user equipment, the access procedure of the user equipment is performed by the user equipment after the waiting duration.

11. The communication transmission system of claim 10 , wherein the access procedure of the user equipment is initiated by the user equipment when the priority value of the user equipment exceeds the priority threshold value.

12. The communication transmission system of claim 10 , wherein the priority threshold value is adjusted by the base station according to a loading status in the base station.

13. The communication transmission system of claim 10 , wherein the waiting duration is set by the base station.

14. The communication transmission system of claim 10 , wherein the waiting duration is a random value.

15. A base station, comprising:

a broadcasting unit, configured to broadcast a message to a plurality of user equipment, wherein the message includes a priority threshold value and different waiting durations for each of the plurality of user equipment; and

an adjusting unit, configured to adjust the priority threshold value according to a loading status,

wherein the access procedures of the user equipment are initiated according to the waiting durations when the priority threshold value is adjusted to be less than the priority values of the user equipment.

16. The base station of claim 15 , wherein the waiting durations are set by the base station.

17. The base station of claim 15 , wherein the waiting durations a plurality of random values.

18. A user equipment, comprising:

a receiving unit, configured to receive a message from a base station, wherein the message includes a priority threshold value and a wait time value;

a comparing unit, configured to compare a priority value of the user equipment with the priority threshold value; and

a processing unit, configured to disable an initiation of an access procedure of the user equipment, when the priority value of the user equipment is below the priority threshold value,

wherein the access procedures of the user equipment are initiated according to the waiting duration when the priority threshold value is adjusted to be less than the priority values of the user equipment by the base station.

19. The user equipment of claim 18 , wherein the access procedure of the user equipment is initiated when the priority value of the user equipment exceeds the priority threshold value.
