Abstract

A message transmission method and device relating to the field of communications technologies is disclosed, so as to improve an anti-interference capability in message transmission. The method includes: generating, by a base station, a scrambling code according to a first time parameter; then scrambling a system message according to the scrambling code; and finally sending the scrambled system message to a terminal on a physical broadcast channel. In this technical solution, because the first time parameter has different values at at least two different moments, scrambling codes determined at the at least two corresponding different moments are different. Therefore, a possibility at which the base station uses a same scrambling code to scramble a same system message repeatedly in a time period is reduced, so that an anti-interference capability in system message transmission is improved.

Claims (45)

1. A message sending method, the method comprising:

generating a scrambling code according to a scrambling code initialization seed, wherein the scrambling code initialization seed meets the following expression:

c init =P ·( n f mod8+1) 3 ·2 a 3 +N ID cell

where c init is the scrambling code initialization seed, P is a function of the cell identity, n f is a radio frame number of a system message, a 3 is a non-negative integer, and N ID cell is the cell identity;

scrambling the system message according to the scrambling code to render a scrambled system message; and

sending the scrambled system message to a terminal on a physical broadcast channel.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the system message is a master information block.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein P=N ID cell +1.

4. A message receiving method, the method comprising:

generating a scrambling code according to a scrambling code initialization seed, wherein the scrambling code initialization seed meets the following expression:

c init =P ·( n f mod8+1) 3 ·2 a 3 +N ID cell

wherein c init is the scrambling code initialization seed, P is a function of the cell identity, n f is a radio frame number of a system message, a 3 is a non-negative integer, and N ID cell is the cell identity;

receiving a scrambled system message on a physical broadcast channel; and

descrambling the received scrambled system message according to the scrambling code for acquiring the system message.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the system message is a master information block.

6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein P=N ID cell +1.

7. A network side device, comprising:

a transceiver,

a processor, and

a non-transitory computer-readable medium including computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate the network side device to:

generate a scrambling code according to a scrambling code initialization seed, wherein the scrambling code initialization seed meets the following expression:

c init =P ·( n f mod8+1) 3 ·2 a 3 +N ID cell

wherein c init is the scrambling code initialization seed, P is a function of a cell identity, n f is a radio frame number of a system message, a 3 is a non-negative integer, and N ID cell is the cell identity;

scramble the system message according to the scrambling code to render a scrambled system message; and

send, by the transceiver cooperatively operating with the processor, the scrambled system message to a terminal on a physical broadcast channel.

8. The device according to claim 7 , wherein the system message is a master information block.

9. The device according to claim 7 , wherein P=N ID cell +1.

10. A communication device, comprising:

a transceiver,

a processor, and

a non-transitory computer-readable medium including computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate the communication device to generate a scrambling code according to a scrambling code initialization seed, wherein the scrambling code initialization seed meets the following expression:

c init =P ·( n f mod 8+1) 3 ·2 a 3 +N ID cell

wherein c init is the scrambling code initialization seed, P is a function of a cell identity, n f is a radio frame number of a system message, a 3 is a non-negative integer, and N ID cell is the cell indentity;

receive, by the transceiver cooperatively operating with the processor, a scrambled system message on a physical broadcast channel; and

descramble, according to the scrambling code, the scrambled system message received by the transceiver for acquiring the system message.

11. The device according to claim 10 , wherein the system message is a master information block.

12. The device according to claim 10 , wherein P=N ID cell +1.

13. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having programming instructions stored theron which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform, on device containing a receiver, operations comprising:

generating a scrambling code according to a scrambling code initialization seed, wherein the scrambling code initialization seed meets the following expression:

c init =P ·( n f mod8+1) 3 ·2 a 3 +N ID cell

wherein c init is the scrambling code initialization seed, P is a function of a cell identity, n f is a radio frame number of a system message, a 3 is a non-negative integer, and N ID cell is the cell identity;

receiving, by the transceiver cooperatively operating with the processor, a scrambled system message on a physical broadcast channel; and

descrambling, according to the scrambling code, the scrambled system message received by the transceiver for acquiring the system message.

14. The method according to claim 13 , wherein the system message is a master information block.

15. The method according to claim 13 , wherein P=N ID cell +1.
