20140233515 | METHOD OF RESOURCE SCHEDULING USED FOR MACHINE TYPE COMMUNICATIONS - The invention relates to a method of implementing resource scheduling for MTC devices, the base station assigns multiple machine type communication (MTC) devices to a group, and allocates to each device a sequence number of the group respectively, informs each corresponding device of the sequence number of the device, allocates a resource set for the group, and transmits indication information, indicating the resource set, to each device via broadcast signaling, wherein, the sequence number is used to indicate the resource, in the resource set, used by the device. A MTC device determines the resource, in the resource set, used by the device based on the sequence number. The embodiment of the invention can save the overhead of MTC resource scheduling. | 08-21-2014 |
20140302811 | METHOD OF PATTERN-BASED MESSAGE TRANSMISSION - The invention provides a method of pattern-based message transmission. The method can predetermine a transmission pattern for the message transmission between a base station and a user equipment according to a service type, an equipment identifier, and etc., of the equipment and can hereby determine a transmission process of signaling and data and thus can handle the remaining transmission of either signaling or data to be performed in the predetermined pattern, which means that scheduling resources can be greatly saved and thus signaling overheads and the resource consumption can be greatly reduced. With an optimized design of a pattern, an acknowledgement message and subsequent signalings and/or data could be encapsulated in a same data packet for transmission and reception, thereby resources are further saved. This improves the efficiency of utilizing signaling greatly in general, reduces signaling overheads, and also facilitates various communication between other users in the cell, improves the efficiency of economy and saves cost. | 10-09-2014 |
