Problems solved by technology

It can be seen that this counting method that periodically triggers the recounting process cannot accurately and timely reflect the number of users receiving MBMS services, making it impossible for the network side to accurately determine which transmission mode is the current best choice, resulting in waste of wireless resources

Embodiment 1

[0051] In this embodiment, the network control device is an RNC, and the network side uses PTM mode to transmit MBMS service data when the counting process starts.

[0052] Fig. 2 shows a flow chart of the counting method in this embodiment. Referring to Figure 2, the method includes:

[0053] In step 201, the RNC notifies the UE to start counting, and receives a response from the UE.

[0054] When the RNC needs to collect statistics on the UEs receiving the MBMS service in the cell, in this step, it sends an MBMS access information (MBMS ACCESS INFORMATION) message to the UEs in the cell. When the UE receiving the message is in an idle (IDLE) state and the UE can respond to the message, the UE establishes a radio resource control (RRC) connection between itself and the network side, and communicates with the network through the established RRC connection. The MBMS access information message sent by the RNC responds; if the UE receiving the MBMS access information message is...

Embodiment 2

[0068] In this embodiment, the network control device is still RNC. But different from the embodiment, in this embodiment, the network side adopts the PTP mode to transmit the MBMS service data when the counting process starts.

[0069] Fig. 3 shows a flow chart of the counting method in this embodiment. Referring to Figure 3, the method includes:

[0070] In steps 301-302, the RNC notifies the UE to start counting, and receives a response from the UE; the RNC determines the RNTI corresponding to the UE that has responded, and records the determined RNTI in the UE information record.

[0071] The operations of the above two steps are the same as steps 101 to 102 in Embodiment 1.

[0072] In steps 303-305, the RNC monitors the cell transmitting the MBMS service, and judges whether the UE stored in the UE information record in the cell moves out of the cell, shuts down, leaves the service area, or exits the MBMS service. If yes, delete the UE information from the UE informati...

Abstract

A counting method is disclosed in the present invention, to establish user equipment UE information record and cell threshold in advance, the method comprises: A, informing UE of cell for transferring multimedia broadcast and multicast service to start count, receiving response from UE, and recording responded UE to the UE information record; B, monitoring the cell, updating the UE information record while conforming the cell appearing communication action generated variation UE; C, judging whether or not to renew count according to the UE amount of the UE information record and cell threshold, if it renews count, then returning execution step A, otherwise, returning execution step B. A network control equipment for technology is also disclosed in the present invention, comprising a storing module, a control module and a communication module. According to the scheme of the present invention, it can promote the accuracy of network side determining MBMS service transferring mode.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to multimedia broadcast and multicast (MBMS) technology, in particular to a counting method in MBMS and a network control device for counting. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of mobile communication technology, the widespread use of mobile communication networks and the rapid growth of the number of mobile communication users, multimedia broadcast and multicast technologies have appeared in mobile communication networks, and this technology has less resources and services It has become one of the hot technologies in the mobile communication system due to its high quality and other characteristics. [0003] The network side can adopt point-to-point (PTP) mode or point-to-multipoint (PTM) mode to provide MBMS service data to multiple users in one cell. Wherein, when there are few users receiving MBMS services in the cell, the PTP mode is adopted, and at this time, the network side transmits the MBMS...
