Abstract

The present invention discloses an uplink resource scheduling method, and also discloses a corresponding terminal and base station. In the method, a base station calculates an uplink resource required to grant to a terminal by a base station according to a split bearer data ratio, and then performs uplink resource grant.

Claims (51)

1. An uplink resource scheduling method, wherein:

a base station calculates an uplink resource for granting to a terminal according to a split bearer data ratio, and then performs uplink resource granting,

the uplink resource for granting to the terminal is calculated by the following formula:

G=D ×(1− P ), if D×P≤r×t

wherein G is data size required for the terminal to perform uplink resource granting by the base station; D is total data size to be transmitted by the terminal; P is a split bearer data ratio, r is a WLAN access point service rate,

the split bearer data ratio is a ratio based on a data size transmitted by a split bearer and a non-split bearer.

2. The uplink resource scheduling method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the split bearer data ratio is a ratio of a split bearer data size of each logic channel group to a total data size of the logic channel groups.

3. The uplink resource scheduling method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the base station calculates uplink resource for granting to the terminal according to the split bearer data ratio and a split bearer data allocation ratio,

the split bearer data allocation ratio is determined by coordination between the base station and a node capable of transmitting the split bearer data size, and is a ratio of a split bearer data size transmitted by the base station to the split bearer data size.

4. The uplink resource scheduling method according to claim 3 , wherein:

the split bearer data ratio is determined by the terminal and is sent from the terminal to the base station or the node.

5. The uplink resource scheduling method according to claim 3 , wherein:

the uplink resource for granting to the terminal calculated by the base station is a sum of a non-split bearer data size that should be transmitted by the base station, and a product of the split bearer data size and the split bearer data allocation ratio.

6. The uplink resource scheduling method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the buffer status report comprises a buffer data size in addition to the split bearer data ratio,

wherein the buffer data sizes represent a data size of logical channel group, total data sizes of logical channel groups, or a data size of each of the logical channel groups.

7. The uplink resource scheduling method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the uplink resource for granting to the terminal is calculated by the following formula:

G=D−r×t , if D×P>r×t

wherein G is data size required for the terminal to perform uplink resource granting by the base station; D is the total data size to be transmitted by the terminal; P is the split bearer data ratio, r is the WLAN access point service rate.

8. A terminal for uplink resource scheduling, wherein:

when the terminal reports a buffer status report to a base station, the buffer status report comprises a split bearer data ratio,

the split bearer data ratio is applied in the following formula for calculating the uplink resource for granting to the terminal:

G=D ×(1− P ), if D×P≤r×t

wherein G is data size required for the terminal to perform uplink resource granting by the base station; D is total data size to be transmitted by the terminal; P is the split bearer data ratio, r is a WLAN access point service rate,

the split bearer data ratio is a ratio based on a data size transmitted by a split bearer and a non-split bearer.

9. The terminal for uplink resource scheduling according to claim 8 , wherein:

the buffer status report further comprises a buffer data size that represents a data size of logical channel group, total data sizes of logical channel groups, or a data size of each of the logical channel groups.

10. The terminal for uplink resource scheduling according to claim 8 , wherein:

the split bearer data ratio is a ratio of a split bearer data size to the total data size to be transmitted.

11. The terminal for uplink resource scheduling according to claim 8 , wherein:

the split bearer data ratio is a ratio of a split bearer data size of each logic channel group to a total data size of the logic channel groups,

the total data size of the logic channel groups includes data size transmitted by a split bearer and a non-split bearer.

12. A base station for uplink resource scheduling, wherein:

the base station calculates an uplink resource for granting to a terminal according to a split bearer data ratio, and then performs uplink resource grant, wherein,

the split bearer data ratio is applied in the following formula for calculating the uplink resource for granting to the terminal:

G=D ×(1− P ), if D×P≤r×t

wherein G is data size required for the terminal to perform uplink resource granting by the base station; D is total data size to be transmitted by the terminal; P is the split bearer data ratio, r is a WLAN access point service rate,

the split bearer data ratio is a ratio based on a data size transmitted by a split bearer and a non-split bearer.

13. The base station for uplink resource scheduling according to claim 12 , wherein:

the base station calculates uplink resource for granting to the terminal according to the split bearer data ratio and a split bearer data allocation ratio, the split bearer data allocation ratio is determined by negotiation between the base station and a node capable of transmitting the split bearer data size, and is a ratio of the split bearer data size transmitted by the base station to the split bearer data size.

14. The base station for uplink resource scheduling according to claim 13 , wherein:

the uplink resource for granting to the terminal calculated by the base station is a sum of a non-split bearer data size that should be transmitted by the base station and a product of the split bearer data size and the split bearer data allocation ratio.

15. The base station for uplink resource scheduling according to claim 12 , wherein:

the split bearer data ratio is a ratio of a split bearer data size of each logic channel group to a total data size of the logic channel groups.

16. The base station for uplink resource scheduling according to claim 12 , wherein:

the uplink resource for granting to the terminal is calculated by the following formula:

G=D−r×t , if D×P>r×t

wherein G is data size required for the terminal to perform uplink resource granting by the base station; D is the total data size to be transmitted by the terminal; P is the split bearer data ratio, r is the WLAN access point service rate.
