Scheduling processing method for multimedia broadcast and multicast service and lower-layer network element
First Claim
1. A scheduling processing method for a Multimedia Broadcast and Multicast Service (MBMS), used for each of lower-layer network elements to perform scheduling processing for data of art MBMS services received from an upper-layer network element, comprising:
- receiving, by each of the lower-layer network elements, information sent by a designated network element, wherein the information is used for indicating a scheduling periods of the MBMS services, and wherein the designated network element comprises a multimedia broadcast and multicast coordination entity;
performing, by each of the lower-layer network elements, scheduling processing for the data of the received MBMS services during a transmission scheduling period of a Multicast Channel (MCH) based on a predetermined sequence and/or predetermined scheduling amount, according to the scheduling periods of the MBMS services indicated by the information;
wherein the step that each of the lower-layer network elements performs the scheduling processing for the data of the received MBMS services is according to the predetermined sequence, the predetermined sequence is a length sequence of the scheduling periods of the MBMS services;
wherein the scheduling processing according to the length sequence by each of the lower-layer network elements comprises;
arranging the received MBMS services at corresponding resource positions according to the length sequence of the scheduling periods including;
first scheduling the MBMS service with the shortest scheduling period during the transmission scheduling period;
then scheduling the MBMS service with the longer scheduling; and
wherein the transmission scheduling period of the MCH is an integral multiple of a minimum MBMS scheduling period containing the scheduling period information of the MBMS service.

Abstract
A scheduling processing method for a MBMS service and a lower-layer network element are provided. The method is used for each lower-layer network element to perform scheduling processing for data of an MBMS service received from an upper-layer network element, in which the lower-layer network element receives information sent by a designated network element, the information is used for indicating a scheduling period of the MBMS service; then the lower-layer network element performs scheduling processing for the data of the received MBMS service according to the scheduling period of the MBMS service.

17. A lower-layer network element, comprising:
-
a first receiving unit, used for receiving data of MBMS services from an upper-layer network element; a second receiving unit, used for receiving information indicating scheduling periods of the MBMS services from a designated network element, wherein the designated network element comprises a multimedia broadcast and multicast coordination entity; a scheduling processing unit, used for performing scheduling processing for the data of the MBMS services received by the first receiving unit during a transmission scheduling period of a Multicast Channel (MCH) based on a predetermined sequence and/or predetermined scheduling amount, according to the scheduling periods of the MBMS services indicated by the information received by the second receiving unit; wherein the scheduling processing for the data of the received MBMS service is according to the predetermined sequence, the predetermined sequence is a length sequence of the scheduling periods of the MBMS services; wherein the scheduling processing according to the length sequence by scheduling processing unit comprises; arranging the received MBMS services at corresponding resource positions according to the length sequence of the scheduling periods including; first scheduling the MBMS service with the shortest scheduling period during the transmission scheduling period; then scheduling the MBMS service with the longer scheduling; and wherein the transmission scheduling period of the MCH is an integral multiple of a minimum MBMS scheduling period containing the scheduling period information of the MBMS service.
