Description

DESCRIPTION
METHOD FOR OPTIMIZING THE TRIGGERING OF THE TRANSMISSION OF BUFFER STATUS REPORTING (BSR) INFORMATION
Technical Field
[0001]
The present invention pertains to telecommunication fields and concerns a method for optimizing the estimation by a Base Station of the resource to allocate to a User Equipment for transmitting uplink data in a wireless telecommunication network. [0002]
More precisely, the invention concerns a method for optimizing the triggering of the transmission of Buffer Status Reporting (BSR) information from a User Equipment (UE) to a Base Station (BS) in a wireless telecommunication network, said UE comprising a transmission buffer for storing data to be transmitted via a plurality of logical channels, each logical channel being provided with a priority level and a specific Prioritized Bit Rate parameter indicating the minimum resource level to allocate to the UE for transmitting the stored data, said BSR information allowing said Base Station to schedule the amount of resource to allocate to the UE. [0003]
RECTIFIED SHEET(RULE9l) The invention concerns also a User Equipment (UE) comprising means for optimizing the triggering of the transmission of Buffer Status Reporting (BSR) information to a Base Station (BS) in a wireless telecommunication network.
Background Art [0004]
In a mobile communication network such as UMTS , UE (User Equipment) is provided with a Limited amount of power for transmitting different class of logical traffic channels during an uplink communication. Each logical channel transporting different services and/or signalling data which necessitates specific rate and/or QoS (Quality of Service) .
[0005] At each elementary transmission time interval (TTI) , the UE selects a sub-rate for each channel by selecting a TFC (Transport Format Combination) . [0006]
The selection of the TFC (Transport Format Combination) to be used in the uplink during each TTI is under the control of the MAC (Medium Access Control) layer of the UE which selects the TFC according not only to the data available to be sent and the priority of the flows to which the data belongs, but also to a maximum transport block size communicated by the Base Station, which depends on the conditions of the radio channel. [0007]
According to the current selection scheme, a User Equipment must report to the Base Station the reporting is properly defined both in terms of content and triggering. [0008]
Since the mobile may have several data flows running at the same time (i.e. several radio bearers) it is important that the content of the BSR takes into account the data queues associated to each bearers, but at the same time tries to reduce the amount of information sent to the network in order to reduce the signaling overhead. Hence there is a compromise between the level of detail contained in the BSR and the amount of resources needed to send this BSR. [0009]
Moreover, in order to reduce signaling overhead, it is felt sensible not to send the BSR at each transmitting occasion {each TTI) . Instead, a number of triggers are defined in order to send the BSR when really needed. [0010]
It is to be noted that the current 3GPP standard specification requires that a BSR is triggered in the following conditions :
[0011] a-If the UE has no resource to transmit, and some data arrives in one of the queues, the BSR is triggered,
[0012] b-If data with higher priority than the data already in the transmission buffer arrives, the BSR is triggered, [0013] d-A BSR is triggered when a serving cell change occurs,
[0014] e-Periodic trigger of the BSR may also be configured by higher layers. [0015]
Moreover, in the current LTE MAC specification (36.321 v2.0.0 Dec 2007), a BSR shall be reported if uplink data arrive in the UE transmission buffer and the data belong to a logical channel, group with higher priority than those for which data already existed in the UE transmission buffer.
[0016]
As it is, this condition does not take into account the PBR (Prioritized Bit Rate) concept introduced in LTE over HSUPA to avoid starvation of lower priority radio bearers. [0017]
Specifically, this PBR concept means that some part of the data possibly queued in a LCH (logical channel) of less priority (or in a LCH group of less priority) than another LCH (or LCH group) must actually be treated with a higher priority than the part of the data exceeding the PBR of
RECTIFIED SKEET(RULE9l) higher priority LCH 's (or LCH groups) . [0018]
Consequently, there is no warranty that enough resource will be left by the Base Station to ensure the transmission of data queued in a LCH (logical channel) of less priority. [0019]
It is therefore desirable to add additional trigger (s) to take into account the PBR concept to avoid starvation of lower priority radio bearers problems . [0020]
Document US 2007/0177536 Al discloses a method for scheduling uplink resource for uplink transmission in which a timing for collection of metrics regarding resource consumption is decoupled from a timing for generating scheduling grants to allow a scheduler to collect the received data information from a plurality of users that have sent E-DCH data within one transmission time interval (TTI) in order to get information of the sum of all users to make a correct decision. [0021]
Document EP 1 643 690 Al discloses a method for scheduling in a mobile communication system a plurality of priority flows data transmitted by a plurality of mobile terminals via a plurality of dedicated uplink channels to a base station. [ 0022 ]
The method described in this document consists in providing the scheduling base station with QoS information of respective uplink priority flows.

Brief Description of Drawings
[0034]
Other features and advantages of the invention will appear from the following description taken as a non limiting example with reference to the following drawings in which figures 1 and 2 illustrate schematically the BSR triggering mechanism as currently specified in the MAC specification, in two different situations.
Explanation of Reference [0035]
2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 Data
Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention
[0036] In the example of figure 1, four radio bearers, or logical channels are grouped into 2 groups of 2 Radio Bearers (RB) . Each group contains radio bearers assumed to have the same priority class, i.e. similar QoS requirements. Group A contains the RB' s of highest priority, and Group B contains the RB' s of lower priority. [0037]
Each logical channel is provided with a PBR#x horizontal line representing the amount of data that should be sent at a TTI#N in order for the PBR to be satisfied in average for this Radio Bearer. For example, if a token/bucket mechanism is implemented to average the PBR, the line corresponds to the amount of tokens present in the bucket at TTI#N for this Radio Bearer.
[0038] It is to be noted that instead of reporting the Buffer Occupancy (B. O. ) for each of the RB' s separately, the specification allows that the UE reports only 2 values, Report A and Report B, consisting of the sum of all the data queued in the RB' s of groups A and B, respectively. [0039]
The specification also allows that the UE reports the buffer status of one group only (short report) or of all the groups together {long report) . Hence, in the case illustrated by figure 1, a short report would consist of either Report A or Report B, and a long report would consist
RECTIFIED SHEET(RULE9l) of Report A and Report B together. However, the specification still does not clearly states what are the conditions to decide whether a long or a short report should be made. [0040]
In the situation of figure 1, according to trigger as defined in the current 3GPP standard specification, a BSR will be triggered because data 2 arrive in LCH#2 which belongs to Group A, which is the high priority group compared to Group B, and the data (4,6) existing before the current TTI was in Group B. [0041]
In the situation of figure 2, no BSR is triggered, because the arriving data 8 is in Group B, and it is considered that the data (10,12) in Group A is of higher priority. Since the data (10,12) in Group A arrived in previous TTI (s), it has been notified to the network by previous BSR (s) and since the network has already been made aware of this status, it is assumed that the current allocated resource is enough to accommodate with the data present in Group A and not transmitted yet. [0042]
However, according to the invention, in order to avoid starvation of LCH#4, a BSR is notified to the network because the data 8 that just arrived in Group B is objectively
RECTIFIED SHEET(RULE9l) regarded as having a higher priority than the data (10,12) present in Group A. [0043]
While the invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, the invention is not limited to these embodiments . It will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the claims. [0044]
This application is based upon and claims the benefit of priority from European patent application No .08100193.5 , filed on January 8, 2008, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.
