DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

Hereinafter, the technical solutions according to the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described clearly and completely in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Apparently, the described embodiments are only a few rather than all of embodiments of the present disclosure. Any other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without any creative work fall within the scope of protection of the disclosure.


In a broadband cluster system, services to be accessed to a network for a cluster terminal include a service with a high delay requirement and a service with a low delay requirement. The service with the high delay requirement has a high requirement on delay, such as a cluster call service. The service with the low delay requirement has a low requirement on delay, such as a video uploading service and an auxiliary information (such as GPS position information) uploading service. In the broadband cluster system, timely access of the service with the high delay requirement should be ensured, while access of the service with the low delay requirement is allowed to be delayed.


According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, based on the characteristic that the access of the service with the low delay requirement is allowed to be delayed, an access time instant of the service with the low delay requirement is controlled. In this case, broadband resources are preferentially provided for the service with the high delay requirement, thereby ensuring timely access of the service with the high delay requirement.


Reference is made to FIG. 1, which is a flow chart of a service access control method for a broadband cluster system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method includes steps S101 to S103.


In step S101, a cluster terminal determines a service type of a to-be-accessed service. The service type includes a service with a low delay requirement and a service with a high delay requirement.


In the embodiment, a base station in the broadband cluster system transmits related parameters for random access to cluster terminals by broadcasting a system message. The cluster terminals acquire the related parameters for random access by receiving the system message broadcasted by the base station. Then, the cluster terminal configures its random access by utilizing the received related parameters for random access, and validates the configuration of the random access, for example, validates a sub-frame position of the random access.


Once the cluster terminal in the broadband cluster system needs to perform a service, the access of the service is completed firstly. The cluster terminal in the embodiment may be an interphone. Specifically, the cluster terminal firstly determines the service type of the to-be-accessed service and the service type is preset.


In the embodiment, the cluster terminal may determine in real time the service type of the to-be-accessed service, based on different delay requirements of the services. For example, a cluster call is determined as a service with a high delay requirement, and cluster video uploading, auxiliary information uploading and the like are determined as services with a low delay requirement.


In step S102, if the cluster terminal determines that the to-be-accessed service is a service with a low delay requirement, the cluster terminal judges whether a current sub-frame meets a preset access condition for the service with the low delay requirement.


In the broadband cluster system, the cluster terminal may properly control the access time instant of the service with the low delay requirement since the service with low delay requirement has the low requirement on delay. Specifically, the cluster terminal in the embodiment of the present disclosure controls the access time instant of the service with the low delay requirement by presetting an access condition that can limit the service with the low delay requirement.


In a practical application, the preset access condition for the service with the low delay requirement includes that the current sub-frame is a random access sub-frame and the current sub-frame allows access of the service with the low delay requirement. Specifically, the condition that the current sub-frame allows the access of the service with the low delay requirement may be that there is a code channel allowing the access of the service with the low delay requirement for the current sub-frame.


Firstly, the cluster terminal may judge whether the current sub-frame is a random access sub-frame. If it is determined that the current sub-frame is the random access sub-frame, it is further judged whether the current sub-frame allows the access of the service with the low delay requirement. In addition, whether the current sub-frame allows the access of the service with the low delay requirement may be judged by judging whether there is a code channel allowing the access of the service with the low delay requirement for the current sub-frame.


In step S103, if the current sub-frame meets the access condition for the service with the low delay requirement, the cluster terminal completes the access of the to-be-accessed service.


In the embodiment, if the cluster terminal determines that the current sub-frame meets the preset access condition for the service with the low delay requirement, the cluster terminal transmits a network access request to the base station by generating a random access preamble.


In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the cluster terminal firstly determines a service type of a to-be-accessed service. The service type includes a service with a low delay requirement and a service with a high delay requirement. The cluster terminal judges whether a current sub-frame meets a preset access condition for a service with a low delay requirement if the cluster terminal determines that the to-be-accessed service is the service with the low delay requirement. The cluster terminal completes access of the to-be-accessed service if the current sub-frame meets the preset access condition for the service with the low delay requirement. Compared with conventional technologies, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, an access time instant of the service with the low delay requirement is controlled based on a characteristic that access of the service with the low delay requirement is allowed to be delayed. In this way, broadband resources are preferentially provided for the service with the high delay requirement to ensure timely access of the service with the high delay requirement, thereby avoiding network congestion caused by simultaneously transmitting requests for accessing to a network by a large quantity of cluster terminals and processing the service with the high delay requirement timely.


Reference is made to FIG. 2, which is a flow chart of a service access control method for a broadband cluster system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method includes steps S201 to S205.


In step S201, a cluster terminal receives service types respectively set for services. The service types of the services are set based on different delay requirements of the services.


In the embodiment, the cluster terminal may receive the service types, which are respectively set for services by a user based on different delay requirements of the respective services. The service types may include a service with a low delay requirement and a service with a high delay requirement. For example, a cluster call may be set as a service with a high delay requirement since the cluster call has a high requirement on delay, that is, needs to be processed timely. Information uploading such as cluster video uploading and auxiliary information uploading may be set as services with a low delay requirement, since they have low requirements on delay.


In step S202, the cluster terminal determines the service type of the to-be-accessed service based on the service types respectively set for the services.


In the embodiment, the cluster terminal locally stores the service types which are set respectively for the services by the user, and queries the pre-stored service types based on the delay requirement of the to-be-accessed service, to determine the service type of the to-be-accessed service, that is, determine whether the to-be-accessed service is the service with the low delay requirement. For example, if the to-be-accessed service is a cluster call service, the cluster terminal may determine, based on the preset service types, that the to-be-accessed service is the service with the high delay requirement which needs to be processed in time.


In step S203, if it is determined that the to-be-accessed service is the service with the low delay requirement, it is judged whether a current sub-frame meets a preset access condition for the service with the low delay requirement.


In step S204, if the current sub-frame meets the preset access condition for the service with the low delay requirement, access of the to-be-accessed service is completed.


Step S203 and step S204 in the embodiment are the same as step S102 and step S103 above, and one may understand step S203 and step S204 by referring to step S102 and step S103.


In step S205, if it is determined that the to-be-accessed service is not the service with the low delay requirement, the access of the to-be-accessed service is directly completed.


In the embodiment, if it is determined by the cluster terminal that the to-be-accessed service is not the service with the low delay requirement, for example, the to-be-accessed service is the service with the high delay requirement, the cluster terminal may directly transmit a network access request to the base station by generating a random access preamble, to finally complete the access of the to-be-accessed service.


According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, an access time instant of the service with the low delay requirement is controlled based on the characteristic that the access of the service with the low delay requirement is allowed to be delayed. In this case, broadband resources are preferentially provided for the service with the high delay requirement, thereby ensuring timely access of the service with the high delay requirement.


Reference is made to FIG. 3, which is a schematic structural diagram of a service access control apparatus for a broadband cluster system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The apparatus includes: a determining module 301, a judging module 302 and a first access module 303.
