Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of wireless communication technology, and in particular to a resource adjustment method, device, storage medium and program product. Background Art

[0002] In the access network sharing mode, in order to ensure that users of the same level or services of the same level of different operators obtain the same access service and service quality assurance, each operator needs to configure the service quality (quality of service, QoS) policy on the core network side as agreed, such as user level policy (such as user priority classification method and proportion, etc.), service policy (such as service type, corresponding bearer, guaranteed rate, etc.) or access policy (such as whether to allow preemption and other rules).

[0003] However, in an actual access network sharing scenario, if one operator does not comply with the configuration agreement and configures a higher proportion of high-priority users or high-priority services on the core network side, the wireless resources on the wireless network side will be excessively occupied by the operator's users, resulting in a reduction in the wireless resources available to users of other operators, which in turn leads to unbalanced and unfair resource usage among operators under the access network sharing model. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present application provides a resource adjustment method, device, storage medium and program product, which can effectively solve the problem that the wireless resources on the wireless network side are excessively occupied by a certain operator, and ensure the fairness of the use of wireless resources by each operator in the access network sharing mode.

[0005] In order to achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] In a first aspect, the present application provides a resource adjustment method, which includes: obtaining the wireless resource occupancy status of each operator in a shared cell during a detection period, and when the wireless resource occupancy status of the operator meets the unfair occupancy rule, adjusting the resource usage strategy of the operator so that the wireless resource usage ratio of each operator reaches a fair occupancy state.

[0007] The unfair occupation rule is used to determine whether the wireless resources occupied by an operator exceed the resource occupation ratio agreed in advance by each operator.

[0008] Based on the above scheme, the resource occupancy of each operator in the shared cell can be periodically obtained for fairness detection, and the operator's resource occupancy can be adjusted under the condition that the occupied wireless resources meet the unfair occupation rules. In this way, the wireless resource usage ratio of each operator in the shared cell can be made fair, reducing the occurrence of excessive occupation of wireless resources by a certain operator and ensuring the fair rights and interests of each operator in the access network sharing mode.

[0009] Optionally, when the operator's wireless resource occupancy meets the unfair occupancy rules, adjusting the operator's resource usage strategy may specifically include: when the operator's wireless resource occupancy meets the unfair occupancy rules, reducing the usage ratio of the first type of resources corresponding to the operator.

[0010] The first type of resources are resources that are allowed to be used by users of all operators in a shared cell.

[0011] Optionally, when the number of detection cycles is less than or equal to a preset number, the sum of the reductions in the usage ratio of the first type of resources is less than or equal to a reduction threshold.

[0012] Optionally, the above-mentioned adjustment of the operator's resource usage strategy when the operator's wireless resource occupancy situation meets the unfair occupation rule may also specifically include: when the operator's wireless resource occupancy situation meets the unfair occupation rule, increasing the usage ratio of second type resources corresponding to multiple operators in the shared cell, and / or increasing the usage ratio of third type resources corresponding to multiple operators in the shared cell.

[0014] Optionally, when the number of detection cycles is less than or equal to a preset number, the sum of the increase in the usage ratio of the second type of resources or the sum of the increase in the usage ratio of the third type of resources is less than or equal to the increase threshold.

[0016] Among them, the wireless resource ratio is the ratio between the wireless resources occupied by the operator and the wireless resources of the shared cell.

[0017] Optionally, the users of the operator may include first type users and second type users, and the priority of the first type users is higher than that of the second type users. In this case, the unfair occupation rule may also include: the ratio of the wireless resource proportion of the first type users of the operator to the wireless resource proportion of the second type users of the operator is greater than the resource proportion threshold.

[0018] Optionally, the operator's services may include first-type services and second-type services, and the priority of the first-type services is higher than the priority of the second-type services. In this case, the unfair occupation rule may also include: the ratio of the wireless resource proportion of the operator's first-type services to the wireless resource proportion of the operator's second-type services is greater than a resource proportion threshold.

[0020] The acquisition unit is used to acquire the wireless resource occupancy status of each operator in the shared cell within the detection period.

[0021] The adjusting unit is used to adjust the resource use strategy of the operator when the wireless resource occupation of the operator meets the unfair occupation rule, so that the use ratio of the wireless resources of each operator reaches a fair occupation state.

[0022] Optionally, the adjustment unit is further configured to, when the wireless resource occupation of the operator satisfies the unfair occupation rule, reduce the usage ratio of the first type of resources corresponding to the operator.

[0023] Optionally, the adjustment unit is also used to increase the usage ratio of second type resources corresponding to multiple operators in a shared cell and / or increase the usage ratio of third type resources corresponding to multiple operators in a shared cell when the wireless resource occupancy of the operators meets the unfair occupancy rules.

[0034] The following is a detailed description of a resource adjustment method, device, storage medium and program product provided in an embodiment of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0035] The term "and / or" in this article is merely a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone.

[0037] In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof mentioned in the description of the present application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product or device comprising a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but may optionally include other steps or units that are not listed, or may optionally include other steps or units that are inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0038] It should be noted that, in the embodiments of the present application, words such as "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations or descriptions. Any embodiment or design described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the embodiments of the present application should not be interpreted as being more preferred or more advantageous than other embodiments or designs. Specifically, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present related concepts in a specific way.

[0039] The following is an explanation of some of the terms in the embodiments of the present disclosure to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art:

[0040] Network slicing is a method of dividing a physical network (such as a 5G network) into multiple virtualized, isolated, end-to-end logical networks. Each network slice can serve a specific business scenario or user to meet the differentiated needs of different users and businesses for network capabilities.

[0041] In the process of construction and development of mobile communication networks, operators have begun to adopt a cross-operator cooperation model of network co-construction and sharing in order to cope with financial pressure and improve investment efficiency while ensuring a certain level of network coverage. This model covers various forms such as access network sharing and roaming on different networks.

[0042] In the access network sharing mode, operators jointly build a physical wireless network, allowing their respective users to access the network wirelessly, and through the interconnection of the transmission network, guide user services to their respective independent core networks, allowing users to use the services provided by each operator.

[0043] In this sharing model, it is crucial to maintain the fair interests of all sharing parties. On the one hand, in order to maintain the interests of all sharing parties, it is necessary to ensure equal fairness. For example, in the same base station cell, users of the same level or services of the same level from different operators should receive the same access services and service quality guarantees. At the same time, the use of wireless resources by each sharing operator should be equal or in accordance with the agreed proportion principle.

[0044] On the other hand, the mobile communication network uses the QoS mechanism to provide guarantees for meeting the differentiated quality requirements of different users or services. Under the QoS mechanism, the core network can identify users or services, and configure the corresponding bearer type and service quality flow (QoS flow) for users or services according to the contract status and preset policies, and guide the base station cells that provide services to users to complete the corresponding access, bearer establishment and resource allocation processes, thereby ensuring that high-priority users or high-priority services receive priority services. Therefore, in the access network sharing mode, in order to ensure that the same-level users and services of the same level of different operators enjoy the same access service and service quality guarantee, each operator needs to configure the same or similar QoS policies on its core network side according to the agreement, such as user level policies (such as user priority classification methods and proportions, etc.), service policies (such as service types, corresponding bearers, guaranteed rates, etc.), or access policies (such as whether to allow preemption and other rules).

[0045] In the fifth generation mobile communication network (5G), slicing technology has emerged to introduce further enhanced flexibility in user or service differentiation. Mobile network slicing belongs to an end-to-end structural system, covering core network slicing, transmission network slicing and wireless network slicing. Among them, the deployment strategies of wireless network slicing can include the following three:

[0046] Method 1: QoS scheduling. This method generally adopts the spectrum resource sharing mode, and the slice service relies on the QoS policy for resource scheduling. For example, the wireless side can perform resource scheduling based on the service quality identifier (5GQoS identifier, 5QI), or by using the slice identifier (identifier, ID) and 5QI.

[0047] Method 2: RB resource reservation method: This method can reserve resources (resource block, RB) for different slice groups in advance, and then work together with the QoS scheduling method to achieve optimal resource scheduling.

[0048] Method 3: Independent carrier slicing or wireless private network (dedicated equipment) deployment.

[0049] However, in the 5G access network sharing scenario, whether the spectrum resource sharing mode or the RB resource reservation mode is adopted, if one operator does not comply with the relevant agreement and configures a higher proportion of high-priority users or high-priority services in its core network, the wireless resources on the wireless network side may be over-occupied by the operator's users, resulting in a reduction in the wireless resources available to users of other operators, which in turn leads to the problem of uneven and unfair resource use among operators in the access network sharing mode. Therefore, how to ensure the fairness and equality of resource use among operators in the access network sharing mode has become a key issue that needs to be solved urgently.

[0050] In order to solve the above technical problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a resource adjustment method, which can periodically obtain the resource occupancy status of each operator in a shared cell for fairness detection, and adjust the operator's resource usage strategy under the condition that the wireless resources occupied by the operator's resource occupancy status meet the unfair occupation rules. In this way, the wireless resource usage ratio of each operator in the shared cell can be made to reach a fair usage state, reduce the occurrence of excessive occupation of wireless resources by a certain operator, and ensure the fair rights and interests of each operator in the access network sharing mode.

[0051] Figure 1 An architecture diagram of a resource adjustment system provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the system framework includes: a base station 101.

[0052] Base station 101 can provide communication services for various operators under a shared cell. The base station 101 involved in the embodiment of the present application can be a base station (base transceiver station, BTS) in a global system for mobile communication (global system for mobile communication, GSM), a base station (base transceiver station, BTS) in a code division multiple access (code division multiple access, CDMA), a base station in a wideband code division multiple access (wideband code division multiple access, WCDMA), a base station in the Internet of Things (Internet of Things, IoT) or a narrowband Internet of Things (narrow band internet of things, NB IoT), a base station in a future 5G mobile communication network or a future evolved public land mobile network (public land mobilenetwork, PLMN).

[0053] The embodiment of the present application does not limit the number of base stations 101 in the resource adjustment system, and may include: Figure 1 More or fewer base stations 101.

[0054] In an embodiment of the present application, base station 101 can be used to perform fairness detection on the operator's wireless resource occupancy, and when the operator's wireless resource occupancy meets the unfair occupancy rule, adjust the operator's resource usage strategy so that the wireless resource usage ratio of each operator reaches a fair occupancy state.

[0055] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a resource adjustment method provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, this method is Figure 1 The base station shown is executed, and the method includes:

[0056] S201. Obtain the wireless resource occupancy status of each operator in a shared cell within a detection period.

[0057] In the embodiment of the present application, a shared cell refers to a service cell jointly built and maintained by multiple operators, and multiple operators can share resources of the service cell.

[0058] Optionally, the embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the detection period. For example, the detection period can be one day, one week, or one month.

[0059] The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the dimension of the operator's wireless resource occupancy. For example, the operator's wireless resource occupancy may be the number of resource blocks (RBs) actually occupied by the operator. For another example, the operator's wireless resource occupancy may be the number of times the operator establishes various types of bearers. For another example, the operator's wireless resource occupancy may be data transmission traffic. For another example, the operator's wireless resource occupancy may be the connection duration between the operator's user equipment and the shared cell base station.

[0060] Optionally, the above-mentioned bearers may include but are not limited to: guaranteed bit rate (GRB) bearers, non-guarantee bit rate (Non-GRB) bearers, critical guarantee bit rate (Critical GRB) bearers and other customized bearers.

[0061] Exemplarily, a shared cell may include multiple network slice groups, each network slice group may include at least one network slice, and each operator corresponds to at least one slice group. On this basis, the base station can determine the wireless resource occupancy of the operator to which the network slice group belongs by obtaining the wireless resource occupancy of users in the network slice group.

[0062] In this way, by obtaining the wireless resource occupancy of each operator during the detection period, data support can be provided for whether to adjust the usage ratio of the wireless resources of the operator in the subsequent period.

[0063] S202: When the wireless resource occupation of the operator meets the unfair occupation rule, adjust the resource usage strategy of the operator so that the usage ratio of the wireless resources of each operator reaches a fair occupation state.

[0064] The unfair occupation rule is used to determine whether the wireless resources occupied by an operator exceed the resource occupation ratio agreed in advance by each operator.

[0065] Exemplarily, when it is determined that the wireless resources occupied by the operator meet the unfair occupation rules, the base station can adjust the usage ratio of the wireless resources corresponding to the operator, that is, adjust the wireless resources available to the operator so that the usage ratio of the wireless resources corresponding to each operator reaches a fair state.

[0066] Through the above technical solution, the base station can periodically obtain the resource occupancy status of each operator in the shared cell, and when the wireless resource occupancy status of the operator meets the unfair occupancy rules, it can adaptively adjust the wireless resources available to the operator, thereby making the wireless resource usage ratio of each operator in the shared cell reach a fair usage state, thereby reducing the occurrence of excessive wireless resource occupation by a certain operator and ensuring the fair rights and interests of each operator in the access network sharing mode.

[0067] In some embodiments, the wireless resources available to the operator may include first type resources, second type resources, and third type resources.

[0068] Among them, for the wireless resources available to each operator, the first type of resources are resources that are allowed to be used by users of all operators in the shared cell. The second type of resources are resources that are preferentially allowed to be used by users of this operator and are allowed to be used by users of other operators in the shared cell. The third type of resources are resources that are only allowed to be used by users of this operator.

[0069] Based on this, in a possible implementation manner, the above S202 may specifically include: when the wireless resource occupation of the operator meets the unfair occupation rule, the base station may reduce the usage ratio of the first type of resources corresponding to the operator.

[0070] Exemplarily, the first type of resources available to an operator may be determined by the maximum resource ratio and the minimum resource ratio corresponding to the operator. In this case, if the wireless resource occupation of the operator meets the unfair occupation rule, the base station may reduce the first type of resources available to the operator by reducing the maximum resource ratio corresponding to the operator, that is, reducing the usage ratio of the first type of resources corresponding to the operator.

[0071] It should be noted that the maximum resource ratio and the minimum resource ratio are set by the base station according to the resource configuration ratio pre-agreed between various operators.

[0072] Exemplarily, the calculation formula of the first type of resources that can be used by the operator can refer to the following formula 1.

[0073] First type of resources = (maximum resource ratio - minimum resource ratio) * shared cell RB resources

[0074] (Formula 1)

[0075] The maximum resource ratio and the minimum resource ratio range from 0% to 100%.

[0076] Through the above technical solution, when the operator's wireless resource occupation meets the unfair occupation rules, the base station can reduce the usage ratio of the first type of resources corresponding to the operator so that the wireless resource usage ratio of each operator in the shared cell reaches a fair usage state, reduce the occurrence of excessive occupation of wireless resources by a certain operator, and ensure the fair rights and interests of each operator in the access network sharing mode.

[0077] In some embodiments, when the number of detection cycles is less than or equal to a preset number, the sum of the reductions in the usage ratio of the first type of resources is less than or equal to a reduction threshold.

[0078] The present application embodiment does not specifically limit the preset number. For example, the preset number may be 1, 2, or 3.

[0079] The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the reduction threshold. For example, the reduction threshold may be 10%, 20% or 50%.

[0080] For example, assuming that the reduction threshold is 10%, in three consecutive detection cycles, the wireless resource occupancy of operator A meets the unfair occupancy rule, therefore, in three consecutive detection cycles, the sum of the three reductions in the usage ratio of the first type of resources corresponding to the operator cannot exceed 10%.

[0081] In this way, by setting the reduction threshold, it is possible to prevent the base station from over-adjusting the usage ratio of the operator's first type of resources.

[0082] In another possible implementation method, the above S202 may further specifically include: when the detection result indicates that the wireless resource occupancy of the operator meets the unfair occupancy rule, increasing the usage ratio of the second type of resources corresponding to multiple operators in the shared cell, and / or increasing the usage ratio of the third type of resources corresponding to multiple operators in the shared cell.

[0083] Exemplarily, the second type of resources available to an operator may be determined by the dedicated resource ratio and the minimum resource ratio corresponding to the operator. The third type of resources available to an operator may be determined by the dedicated resource ratio corresponding to the operator.

[0084] Based on this, when the wireless resource occupancy of the operator meets the unfair occupancy rules, the base station can increase the minimum resource ratio corresponding to each of the multiple operators under the shared cell, thereby increasing the second type of resources that can be used by each of the multiple operators, thereby reducing the usage ratio of the first type of resources corresponding to the operator.

[0085] Optionally, the base station may also increase the minimum resource ratio corresponding to each operator among the multiple operators under the shared cell, and increase the dedicated resource ratio corresponding to each operator among the multiple operators, thereby increasing the second type of resources available to each operator among the multiple operators, and the third type of resources available to each operator among the multiple operators, thereby reducing the usage ratio of the first type of resources corresponding to the operator.

[0086] In the embodiment of the present application, the multiple operators may include all operators under the shared cell, or may include some operators under the shared cell.

[0087] It should be noted that the dedicated resource ratio is set by the base station according to the resource configuration ratio pre-agreed between various operators.

[0088] Exemplarily, the calculation formula of the second type of resources available to the operator may refer to the following formula 2, and the calculation formula of the third type of resources available to the operator may refer to the following formula 3.

[0089] Second type of resources = (minimum resource ratio - dedicated resource ratio) * shared cell RB resources

[0090] (Formula 2)

[0091] The third type of resources = dedicated resource ratio * shared cell RB resources (Formula 3)

[0092] The dedicated resource ratio ranges from 0% to 100%.

[0093] Through the above technical solution, when the wireless resource occupation of the operator meets the unfair occupation rule, the base station can reduce the first type resource ratio corresponding to the operator by increasing the usage ratio of the second type and / or the third type of resources corresponding to multiple operators in the shared cell. In this way, the wireless resource usage ratio of each operator in the shared cell can be made fair, reducing the occurrence of excessive occupation of wireless resources by a certain operator and ensuring the fair rights and interests of each operator in the access network sharing mode.

[0094] In some embodiments, when the number of detection cycles is less than or equal to a preset number, the sum of the increase in the usage ratio of the second type of resources or the sum of the increase in the usage ratio of the third type of resources is less than or equal to the increase threshold.

[0095] The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the increase threshold. For example, the decrease threshold may be 10%, 20% or 50%.

[0096] In this way, by setting the increase threshold, it is possible to prevent the base station from over-adjusting the usage ratio of the operator's second type of resources or third type of resources.

[0097] In some embodiments, the wireless resource occupancy of an operator may be the wireless resource occupancy of the operator's users, or the wireless resource occupancy of the operator's services.

[0098] The users of the operator may include first type users and second type users, and the priority of the first type users is higher than that of the second type users.

[0099] The services of the operator may include first-type services and second-type services, and the priority of the first-type services is higher than that of the second-type services.

[0100] Based on this, the unfair occupation rule in S202 may include any of the following:

[0101] 1. The operator's wireless resource ratio is greater than the resource ratio threshold.

[0102] Among them, the wireless resource ratio is the ratio between the wireless resources occupied by the operator and the wireless resources of the shared cell.

[0103] Optionally, the resource proportion threshold may be set according to the principle of equality and fairness reached between operators. For example, the resource proportion threshold may be 70% or 80%. This embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit this.

[0104] Specifically, the wireless resource proportion of the operator is greater than the resource proportion threshold, which may include:

[0105] 1.1. The wireless resource proportion of all users of a certain operator during the detection period is greater than the resource proportion threshold.

[0106] 1.2. The proportion of wireless resources of the first type of users of a certain operator during the detection period is greater than the resource proportion threshold.

[0107] Exemplarily, the base station can determine whether the user belongs to the first type of user by identifying the default bearer type used by the user to access the shared cell. For example, a user who uses the default bearer 5QI6 or 5QI8 to access the shared cell can be determined as a first type of user.

[0108] 1.3. The proportion of wireless resources of the first type of services of a certain operator during the detection period is greater than the resource proportion threshold.

[0109] Exemplarily, the base station can determine whether the service belongs to the first type of service by identifying the service bearer type. For example, a service bearer type of GBR type bearer (such as 5QI3 and 5QI4) or other customized GBR type bearer can be used as the first type of service.

[0110] 1.4. The ratio of the wireless resource proportion of the first type of users of a certain operator to the wireless resource proportion of the second type of users of the operator is greater than the resource proportion threshold.

[0111] Exemplarily, the base station can determine whether the user belongs to the second type of user by identifying the default bearer type used by the user to access the shared cell. For example, a user who uses the default bearer 5QI9 to access the shared cell can be determined as a second type of user.

[0112] 1.5. The ratio of the wireless resource proportion of the first type of service of a certain operator to the wireless resource proportion of the second type of service of the operator is greater than the resource proportion threshold.

[0113] Exemplarily, the base station can determine whether the service belongs to the second type of service by identifying the service bearer type. For example, if the service bearer type is a Non-GBR type bearer (such as 5QI6, 5QI85 or QI9), it can be determined as the second type of service.

[0114] 2. The ratio of the wireless resource proportion of the operator to the average wireless resource proportion of other operators except the operator in the shared cell is greater than the resource proportion threshold.

[0115] The above-mentioned unfair occupation rules may specifically include:

[0116] 2.1. The ratio of the wireless resource proportion of all users of a certain operator during the detection period to the average wireless resource proportion of all users of other operators except the operator in the shared cell during the detection period is greater than the resource proportion threshold.

[0117] 2.2. The ratio of the proportion of wireless resources of the first type users of a certain operator during the detection period to the average proportion of wireless resources of the first type users of other operators except the operator in the shared cell during the detection period is greater than the resource proportion threshold.

[0118] 2.3. The ratio of the proportion of wireless resources of the first type of services of a certain operator during the detection period to the average proportion of wireless resources of the first type of services of other operators except the operator in the shared cell during the detection period is greater than the resource proportion threshold.

[0119] 2.4. The ratio between A and B is greater than the resource ratio threshold.

[0120] Wherein, A refers to: the ratio between the proportion of wireless resources of the first type of users of a certain operator during the detection period and the proportion of wireless resources of the second type of users of the operator during the detection period.

[0125] 3. The ratio of the operator's wireless resource share to the average wireless resource share of all operators in the shared cell is greater than the resource share threshold.

[0126] The above-mentioned unfair occupation rules may specifically include:

[0127] 3.1. The ratio of the wireless resource proportion of all users of a certain operator within the detection period to the average wireless resource proportion of all users of all operators in the shared cell is greater than the resource proportion threshold.

[0128] 3.2. The ratio of the wireless resource proportion of the first type users of a certain operator in the detection period to the average wireless resource proportion of the first type users of all operators in the shared cell is greater than the resource proportion threshold.

[0129] 3.3. The ratio of the wireless resource proportion of the first type of services of a certain operator in the detection period to the average wireless resource proportion of the first type of services of all operators in the shared cell is greater than the resource proportion threshold.

[0133] 3.5. The ratio between G and H is greater than the resource ratio threshold.

[0134] Wherein, G refers to: the ratio between the proportion of wireless resources of the first type of services of a certain operator in the detection period and the proportion of wireless resources of the second type of services of the operator in the detection period.

[0136] In this way, by formulating the above-mentioned unfair occupation rules, a criterion can be provided for determining whether an operator has excessively occupied wireless resources.

[0137] In some embodiments, after the base station obtains the wireless resource occupancy of each operator in the shared cell during the detection period, it can also send the wireless resource occupancy of each operator during the detection period to the server. Accordingly, after receiving the wireless resource occupancy of each operator during the detection period, the server can refer to the method of S202 above and adjust the wireless resource usage strategy of the operator based on the wireless resource occupancy of the operator.

[0138] The server in the embodiment of the present application may be a single server, a server cluster, or a cloud server, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present application.

[0139] The beneficial effects that can be achieved by the above technical solution can refer to the beneficial effects that can be achieved by any of the above methods S201-S202, which will not be repeated here.

[0140] In some embodiments, after adjusting the resource usage strategy of the operator, if the wireless resource occupancy of the operator is not detected to meet the unfair occupancy rule within multiple consecutive detection cycles, the base station can increase the first resource usage ratio corresponding to the operator. Alternatively, the base station can reduce the second type of resource usage ratio corresponding to each of the multiple operators, and / or the third type of resource usage ratio corresponding to each of the multiple operators.

[0141] The usage ratio of the first type of resources adjusted by the operator cannot be greater than the initial usage ratio of the first type of resources of the operator.

[0142] The usage ratio of the second type of resources adjusted by the operator cannot be greater than the initial usage ratio of the second type of resources of the operator.

[0143] The usage ratio of the third type of resources after adjustment by the operator cannot be greater than the initial usage ratio of the third type of resources of the operator.

[0144] Through the above technical solution, for an operator that has not experienced excessive resource occupation for a long time, the base station can call back the usage ratio of the operator's wireless resources to ensure fairness in the operator's resource usage.

[0145] In some embodiments, before executing the above S201-S202, the base station may also allocate initial first type resources, initial second type resources and initial third type resources available to each operator, such as Figure 3 As shown, the method may include:

[0146] S301: Obtain the wireless resource allocation strategy of each operator in a shared cell.

[0147] In the embodiment of the present application, the wireless resource allocation strategy may include the wireless resource types (such as first type resources, second type resources, and third type resources) pre-set by each operator, and the allocation ratio of each type of resources.

[0148] S302: Allocate initial first-type resources, initial second-type resources, and initial third-type resources to the operator based on the wireless resource allocation strategy and the shared cell wireless resources.

[0149] Specifically, each operator may correspond to at least one network slice group. After the base station obtains the allocation ratio of the operator's pre-set first type of resources, second type of resources, and third type of resources, it can determine the maximum resource ratio, minimum resource ratio, and dedicated resource ratio of the network slice group corresponding to the operator. Afterwards, the base station can allocate initial first type resources, initial second type resources, and initial third type resources to the network slice group corresponding to the operator based on the shared cell wireless resources and the maximum resource ratio, minimum resource ratio, and dedicated resource ratio of the network slice group corresponding to the operator. Exemplarily, Figure 4 A schematic diagram showing an operator's wireless resource configuration.

[0150] In an embodiment of the present application, users within each network slice group preferentially use the third type of resources, followed by the second type of resources, and finally the first type of resources.

[0151] It should be noted that the total amount of wireless resources allocated by an operator cannot exceed the maximum resources that the operator can use. For example, the calculation formula for the maximum resources that each operator can use can refer to the following formula 4.

[0152] Maximum resource = maximum resource ratio * shared cell RB resources (Formula 4)

[0153] Through the above technical solution, the base station can allocate wireless resources to operators according to the resource allocation ratio pre-negotiated by the operators, thereby ensuring the fairness of the wireless resources available to each operator.
