The present invention relates to the field of communications and, more particularly, to a method, an apparatus, and a system for resource scheduling.
In the prior art, prior to viewing a video, a user needs to download video data to a video display client, then the video display client displays the video. During the process of downloading video data, in order to avoid congestion, a server needs to transmit the video data to the video display client in light of network bandwidth status.
Various transmission paths of various video data packets over a network and various forwarding devices passed may result in various transmission delays of various video data packets over the network, thus, delay variation is generated, therefore, the video cannot be smoothly displayed. In order to eliminate the delay variation, generally, a buffering mechanism is adopted by the client. A buffer area is reserved on the client, the client stores received data packets in the buffer area, sequences data in the buffer area, and performs decoding in accordance with the sequence, so that the video can be displayed smoothly, and the delay variation phenomenon is eliminated. Meanwhile, the client server reports the buffer area state to the server, so as to prevent the server from transmitting too many or too few data which may cause the buffer overflow or buffer overflow underflow occur at the buffer area.
In general, video display rates are dynamic changed during video display. To the server, merely being aware of the client's current buffer amount is not sufficient to estimate subsequent scheduling rates for the client server, therefore, it may be the result that the scheduling rate for transmitting data to the client server determined by the server is so high that the system efficiency is reduced, it may also be the result that the scheduling rate for transmitting data to the client server determined by the server is so low that the video display is suspended or interrupted, thereby degrading customer experience.

Where, the requested transmission rate is determined according to formula: v=S/t, and the requested transmission rate is determined as the scheduling rate.
Where, v is the requested transmission rate, S is the requested amount of scheduling data, and t is the first preset time value.
Optionally, the first preset time value is a time delay value in the quality of service (Qos) information of the service.
It should be noted that, if the scheduling information includes the requested scheduling rate and the requested amount of scheduling data, the requested scheduling rate may be determined as the scheduling rate, alternatively, a requested transmission rate determined according to the requested amount of scheduling data may also be determined as the scheduling rate, which is not limited in embodiments of the present invention.
It should be noted that, if the scheduling information includes the requested scheduling rate and the requested amount of scheduling data, the network-side equipment determines the scheduling rate according to the requested scheduling rate preferably, or determines the scheduling rate according to the requested amount of scheduling data preferably, which is preset.
Preferably, the scheduling rate is determined according to the scheduling information and a preset maximum transmission rate.
In a case that the scheduling information includes a requested scheduling rate, make a comparison between the requested scheduling rate and the preset maximum transmission rate, if the requested scheduling rate is greater than the preset maximum transmission rate, more preferably, determine the scheduling rate as the preset maximum transmission rate. If the requested scheduling rate is less than the preset maximum transmission rate, determine the requested scheduling rate as a minimum rate value of the scheduling rate, and determine the preset maximum transmission rate as a maximum rate value of the scheduling rate, meanwhile, determine a value between the minimum rate value and the maximum rate value as the scheduling rate. Preferably, determine the requested scheduling rate as the scheduling rate.
In a case that the scheduling information includes the requested amount of scheduling data, firstly, determine a requested transmission rate according to the requested amount of scheduling data and the first preset time value; then, determine the scheduling rate according to the requested transmission rate and the preset maximum transmission rate.
In particular, make a comparison between the requested transmission rate and the preset maximum transmission rate, if the requested transmission rate is greater than the preset maximum transmission rate, preferably, determine the preset maximum transmission rate as the scheduling rate. If the requested transmission rate is less than the preset maximum transmission rate, determine the requested transmission rate as a minimum rate value of the scheduling rate, and determine the preset maximum transmission rate as a maximum value of the scheduling rate, meanwhile, determine a value between the minimum rate value and the maximum rate value as the scheduling rate. Preferably, determine the requested transmission rate as the scheduling rate.
It should be noted that, a first preset time value is a preset time value.
It should be noted that, Qos information of the service is obtained when the service is being requested, where a time delay value in the Qos information varies depend on different priorities of services.
It should be noted that, in all embodiments of the present invention, a preset maximum transmission rate is a maximum transmission rate of transmitting data to a terminal and is preset by the network-side equipment.
Optionally, the scheduling rate is determined according to the scheduling information, the preset maximum transmission rate and the service state information.
Where, the service state information includes at least one of the states hereinafter: a state in which the service is suspended; a state in which the service is ended; a state of starting downloading service data to a buffer area; a state in which amount of data to be run of the service stored in a buffer area is less than or equal to a first preset value; a state in which amount of data to be run stored in a buffer area is greater than or equal to a second preset value; a state in which a time length for running, which corresponds to amount of data to be run of a service stored in a buffer area, is less than or equal to a third preset value; a state in which a time length for running, which corresponds to amount of data to be run of a service stored in a buffer area, is greater than or equal to a forth preset value; and a state of all data to be run of a service has been buffered in a buffer area.
In particular, if the service state information includes the state in which the service is suspended or the state of starting downloading service data to the buffer area, raise the scheduling priority of the service, and determine a rate no greater than the preset maximum transmission rate as the scheduling rate.
Where, when the service is in a suspended state or in a state of starting downloading service data to the buffer area, determine a rate no greater than the preset maximum transmission rate as the scheduling rate. Preferably, regardless of whether the scheduling request in the scheduling information, or the requested transmission rate obtained according to the requested amount of scheduling data, is greater than or equal to or less than the preset maximum transmission rate, determine the preset maximum transmission rate as the scheduling rate, as shown in
It should be noted that, if, at current moment, the scheduling rate allocated by the network-side equipment to the terminal cannot reach the preset maximum transmission rate, determine the maximum transmission rate, which can be allocated by the network-side equipment to the terminal at current moment, as the scheduling rate.
If the service state information includes: the state in which amount of data to be run of the service stored in the buffer area is less than or equal to the first preset value, or the state in which the time length for running, which corresponds to the amount of data to be run of the service stored in the buffer area, is less than or equal to the third preset value, raise a scheduling priority of the service, and determine a rate no greater than the preset maximum transmission rate as the scheduling rate.
Where, when buffering of the service has been started but the buffer amount is little, in a case that the requested scheduling rate in the scheduling information, or the requested transmission rate obtained according to the requested amount of scheduling data is greater than the preset maximum transmission rate, the network-side equipment determines the preset maximum transmission rate as the maximum rate value of the scheduling rate, and determine a rate no greater than the preset maximum transmission rate as the scheduling rate. At this time, the network-side equipment may determine a transmission rate slightly less than the preset maximum transmission rate as the scheduling rate according to the actual condition of its self, as shown in
If the service state information includes the state in which the amount of data to be run stored in the buffer area is greater than or equal to the second preset value, or the state in which the time length for running, which corresponds to the amount of data to be run of the service stored in the buffer area, is greater than or equal to the forth preset value, reduce a scheduling priority of the service, and, in a case that the requested scheduling rate in the scheduling information or the requested transmission rate obtained according to the requested amount of scheduling data is no greater than a guarantee rate, determine the requested scheduling rate in the scheduling information or a requested transmission rate obtained according to the requested amount of scheduling data as the maximum rate value of the scheduling rate; and, in a case that the requested scheduling rate in the scheduling information or the requested transmission rate obtained according to the requested amount of scheduling data is greater than the guarantee rate, determine a rate no greater than the guarantee rate as the scheduling rate.
Where, the guarantee rate is a minimum transmission rate guaranteeing normal running of the service.
When the service state information is the state in which the amount of data to be run stored in the buffer area is greater than or equal to the second preset value, or the state in which the time length for running, which corresponds to the amount of data to be run of the service stored in the buffer area, is greater than or equal to the forth preset value, it indicates that a buffer has buffered an enormous amount of data to be run of the service, at this time, the scheduling priority of the service may be lowered, and the scheduling rate is lowered, i.e., the transmission rate no greater than the guarantee rate is determined as the scheduling rate, as shown in
Certainly, determining, by the network-side equipment, the scheduling rate according to the scheduling information further includes: determining, by the network-side equipment, an uplink scheduling rate according to the scheduling information. At this time, the scheduling information includes the requested scheduling rate or the requested amount of scheduling data. The procedure of determining the uplink scheduling rate by the network-side equipment according to the scheduling information and the procedure of determining the downlink scheduling rate by the network-side equipment according to the scheduling information are the same, which is not repeated herein.
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for resource scheduling. After receiving the scheduling information, the network-side equipment determines the service scheduling rate according to the scheduling information, and allocates transmission resource to the terminal by utilizing the scheduling rate. According to the method, determining the scheduling rate of transmitting data from the network side according to the scheduling information fed back from the client side is realized, therefore, the probability of transmitting data to a terminal by a network-side equipment with a too high or too low scheduling rate is reduced, thereby improving system performance, system efficiency, and user experience.
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for resource scheduling, where operation of the present embodiment may be carried out by a terminal. As shown in
Step 201, determining scheduling information.
Where, the scheduling information includes a requested scheduling rate and/or requested amount of scheduling data requested by a local side.
Where, the requested scheduling rate is a service data transmission rate required by the terminal when running the service, where the requested amount of scheduling data is amount of data required to be received by the terminal when running the service.
Where, if the scheduling information includes a requested scheduling rate, the requested scheduling rate can be determined according to the following formula: vq=(Sm−Sy−Sh)/(Tz−Ty), where vq is the requested scheduling rate, Sm is selected data amount, Sy is a amount of data has already been run in the selected data amount, Sh is amount of data to be run in a buffer, Tz is total run time of the service corresponding to the selected data amount, and Ty is time for which the service corresponding to the selected data amount has already been run.
If the scheduling information includes the requested amount of scheduling data, the requested amount of scheduling data is determined according to a following formula: S=Sm−Sy−Sh, where Sm is selected data amount, Sy is a amount of data has already been run in the selected data amount, Sh is amount of data to be run in a buffer.
It should be noted that, the selected data amount may be entire data amount of a service selected by the terminal, or be partial data amount of a service selected by the terminal. Total service run time corresponding to the selected data amount corresponds to the selected data amount. If the selected data amount is the entire data amount of the service, the total service run time corresponding to the selected data amount is the time required for running the entire data amount of the entire service. If the selected data amount is the partial data amount of the service, the total service run time corresponding to the selected data amount is the time required for running the selected partial data amount of the service.
For example, a service of which data needs to be transmitted by the terminal is a video service, where the data amount of the service is represented as S, and the run time of the service is represented as T. As shown in
Step 202, transmitting the scheduling information to a network-side equipment, so that the network-side equipment determines a scheduling rate according to the scheduling information.
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for resource scheduling. In the method, the terminal determines scheduling information according to data amount ready to be transmitted of the service, and transmits the scheduling information to the network-side equipment, so that the network-side equipment determines the scheduling rate according to the received scheduling information. According to the method, the probability of transmitting data to a terminal by a network-side equipment with a too high or too low scheduling rate is reduced, thereby improving system performance and system efficiency, and further reducing user's waiting time, thus improving user experience.
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for determining a scheduling rate, as shown in
Step 501, a network-side equipment transmits configuration information to the terminal, and the terminal receives the configuration information transmitted by the network-side equipment.
Where, the configuration information includes a triggering condition used for triggering, by the network-side equipment, the terminal to determine and transmit the scheduling information.
The triggering condition includes at least one of the conditions as follows: amount of data to be run stored in a buffer area is zero; downloading data of a service to a buffer area is started; amount of data to be run stored in a buffer area is less than or equal to a first preset value; amount of data to be run stored in a buffer area is greater than or equal to a second preset value, where the second preset value is greater than the first preset value; all data to be run of a service has been buffered in a buffer area; a feedback cycle of the scheduling information is arrived; a time length for running, which corresponds to amount of data to be run stored in a buffer area, is zero; a time length for running, which corresponds to amount of data to be run stored in a buffer area, is less than or equal to a third preset value; and a time length for running, which corresponds to amount of data to be run stored in a buffer area, is greater than or equal to a forth preset value, where the forth preset value is greater than the third preset value.
It should be noted that, in all embodiments of the present invention, a time for running is a run time during which running the service by the terminal can be supported by the amount of data to be run.
It should be noted that, in all embodiments of the present invention, a time for running is a maximum run time during which running the service by the terminal can be supported by the amount of data to be run.
It should be noted that, in all embodiments of the present invention, the first preset value, the second preset value, the third preset value, and the forth preset value are all preset, or are configured to the terminal by the network.
Step 502, which is the same as step 201.
For example, determine the scheduling information, if any one triggering condition in the configuration information has been met.
Step 503, a terminal determines the state of the service.
Where, the service state information is the current state of the service. The service state information includes at least one of the states as follows: a state in which the service is suspended; a state in which the service is ended; a state of starting downloading service data to a buffer area; a state in which amount of data to be run of the service stored in a buffer area is less than or equal to a first preset value; a state in which amount of data to be run stored in a buffer area is greater than or equal to a second preset value; a state in which a time length for running, which corresponds to amount of data to be run of a service stored in a buffer area, is less than or equal to a third preset value; a state in which a time length for running, which corresponds to amount of data to be run of a service stored in a buffer area, is greater than or equal to a forth preset value; and a state of all data to be run of a service has been buffered in a buffer area.
It should be noted that, in all embodiments of the present invention, the service being in the suspended state indicates a state that there isn't any data to be run stored in the service buffer area, which results in the service waiting for data transmitted from the network-side equipment to the terminal. For example, when the amount of data to be run stored in the buffer area is null or the time length for running corresponding to the amount of data to be run stored in the buffer area is zero, the service is in a suspended state.
In particular, when a terminal determines that the service is in any one of the aforementioned states, the terminal transmits corresponding service state information to the network-side equipment, so that the network-side equipment knows the current service state corresponding to the service, therefore the scheduling rate can be determined.
Step 504, the terminal transmits the service state information and the scheduling information to the network-side equipment, and the network-side equipment receives the scheduling information and the service state information transmitted by the terminal.
Optionally, the terminal transmits the service state information together with the scheduling information to the network-side equipment. It is possible to encapsulate the scheduling information and the service state information into report information, and transmit to the network-side equipment the report at a medium/media access control (MAC) layer or a radio resource control (RRC) layer.
It should be noted that, the terminal may individually transmit the service state information to a network-side equipment, which is not limited in embodiments of the present invention.
It should be noted that, in all embodiments of the present invention, the scheduling information included in the report information may be an index value, so that the network-side equipment can obtain a range of requested scheduling rates or a range of requested amount of scheduling data in accordance with an index value in the report information after receiving the report information, and determine a scheduling rate in accordance with the requested scheduling rate. Alternatively, the network-side equipment may obtain a corresponding range of requested transmission rates in accordance with the range of requested amount of scheduling data, and determine the scheduling rate in accordance with the range of the obtained requested transmission rates. At this time, both the network-side equipment and the terminal have been preset with the same index value and the corresponding range of the requested transmission rate or of requested amount of scheduling data, as shown in Table 1 and Table 2 hereinafter, where Table 1 shows various requested scheduling rates correspond to various index values, and Table 2 shows various requested amount of scheduling data correspond to various index values. Certainly, the scheduling information in the report information may also be a specific value of the requested transmission rate or of the requested amount of scheduling data. The specific manner of including the scheduling information in the report information is not limited in embodiments of the present invention.
Illustratively, take an MAC layer report as an example, the scheduling information includes the requested scheduling rate, and the service state information and the index value corresponding to the requested scheduling rate are encapsulated in the report information, as shown in
The service state in which the service is suspended is represented with type 1; the state in which the service is ended is represented with type 2; the state of starting downloading service data to a buffer area is represented with type 3; the state in which amount of data to be run of the service stored in a buffer area is less than or equal to a first preset value is represented with type 4; the state in which amount of data to be run of the service stored in a buffer area is greater than or equal to a second preset value is represented with type 5; the state in which a time length for running, which corresponds to amount of data to be run of a service stored in a buffer area, is less than or equal to a third preset value is represented with type 6; the state in which a time length for running, which corresponds to amount of data to be run of a service stored in a buffer area, is greater than or equal to a forth preset value is represented with type 7; and the state of all data to be run of a service has been buffered in a buffer area is represented with type 8.
It should be noted that, at this point both the terminal and the network-side equipment are preset with mapping information between various types and differing service state information.
The terminal encapsulates the current service state information and the scheduling information into the report information, and transmits the service state information and the scheduling information to the network-side equipment.
The network-side equipment receives the scheduling information and the service state information transmitted by the terminal.
In particular, if what is received is the report information, the network-side equipment obtains the service type recorded in the report information, based on which, looks up the mapping information and obtains the service state information transmitted by the terminal. Based on the index value of the expected rate in the report information, it is possible to obtain the corresponding requested scheduling rate or the requested amount of scheduling data by looking up the mapping table.
If the scheduling information and the service state information are received respectively, it is possible to obtain a transmission rate expected by the terminal based on the scheduling information, and obtain the current state of the service based on the service state information.
Step 505, which is the same as step 102, and will not be repeated herein.
Step 506, allocate a transmission resource to the terminal according to the determined scheduling rate.
In particular, if the scheduling rate is a downlink scheduling rate, the network-side equipment allocates a downlink transmission resource to the terminal according to the downlink scheduling rate, that is, the network-side equipment allocates, to the terminal and according to the downlink scheduling rate, the downlink transmission resource which is used for transmitting the data to be transmitted to the terminal by the network-side equipment.
If the scheduling rate is an uplink scheduling rate, the network-side equipment allocates an uplink transmission resource to the terminal according to the uplink scheduling rate, that is, the network-side equipment allocates, to the terminal and according to the uplink scheduling rate, the uplink transmission resource which is used transmitting data to the network-side equipment by the terminal. After the network-side equipment allocates to the terminal the uplink transmission resource, the terminal transmits data to the network-side equipment by utilizing the uplink transmission resource.
Step 507, the network-side equipment transmits the data to be transmitted of the service to the terminal by utilizing the transmission resource, and the terminal receives the data to be transmitted of the service transmitted by the network-side equipment.
In particular, after determining the downlink transmission resource, the network-side equipment transmits the data to be transmitted of the service to the terminal by utilizing the downlink transmission resource, and the terminal receives the data to be transmitted by the network-side equipment.
It should be noted that, when the level of the rate at which the network-side equipment transmits the data to be transmitted to the terminal differs from the level of the determined scheduling rate, it is possible to convert the scheduling rate to the level of the rate at which the network-side equipment transmits the service data information to be transmitted to the terminal. For example, the rate at which the network-side equipment transmits the service data information to be transmitted to the terminal is at a millisecond level, and the scheduling rate is at a second level, the scheduling rate at the second level may be converted to a rate at a millisecond level, and the service data information to be transmitted is transmitted to the terminal based on the rate at the millisecond level.
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for resource scheduling, where, the terminal transmits the scheduling information and the service state information to the network-side equipment, the network-side equipment receives the scheduling information and the service state information, determines the scheduling rate of the service based on the scheduling information, the service state information and the preset maximum transmission rate, and transmits the service's remaining transmission data information by utilizing the scheduling rate. According to the method, determining the scheduling rate of transmitting data from the network side according to the scheduling information fed back from the client side is realized, therefore, the probability of transmitting data to a terminal by a network-side equipment with a too high or too low scheduling rate is reduced, thereby improving system performance and system efficiency, and further reducing user's waiting time, thus improving user experience.

Where, the service state information includes at least one of the states as follows: a state in which the service is suspended; a state in which the service is ended; a state of starting downloading service data to a buffer area; a state in which amount of data to be run of the service stored in a buffer area is less than or equal to a first preset value; a state in which amount of data to be run stored in a buffer area is greater than or equal to a second preset value; a state in which a time length for running, which corresponds to amount of data to be run of a service stored in a buffer area, is less than or equal to a third preset value; a state in which a time length for running, which corresponds to amount of data to be run of a service stored in a buffer area, is greater than or equal to a forth preset value; and a state of all data to be run of a service has been buffered in a buffer area.
Optionally, the determining unit 602 is specifically configured to determine the scheduling rate according to the scheduling information, the service state information, and the preset maximum transmission rate received by the receiving unit 601.
In particular, if the service state information includes the state in which the service is suspended or the state of starting downloading service data to the buffer area, the determining unit 602 shall raise the scheduling priority of the service, and determine a rate no greater than the preset maximum transmission rate as the scheduling rate.
Where, when the service is in a suspended state or a state of starting downloading service data to a buffer area, the determining unit 602 determines a rate no greater than the preset maximum transmission rate as the scheduling rate. Preferably, regardless of whether the requested scheduling rate in the scheduling information, or the requested transmission rate obtained according to the requested amount of scheduling data is greater than or equal to or less than the preset maximum transmission rate, determine the preset maximum transmission rate as the scheduling rate. Meanwhile, raise the scheduling priority of the service.
It should be noted that, if, at the current moment, in the network-side equipment, the scheduling rate capable of being allocated to the terminal cannot reach the preset maximum transmission rate, determine the maximum transmission rate, which can be allocated by the network-side equipment to the terminal at current moment, as the scheduling rate.
If the service state information includes: the state in which amount of data to be run of the service stored in the buffer area is less than or equal to the first preset value, or the state in which the time length for running, which corresponds to the amount of data to be run of the service stored in the buffer area, is less than or equal to the third preset value, the determining unit 602 shall raise the scheduling priority of the service, and determine a rate no greater than the preset maximum transmission rate as the scheduling rate.
Where, when buffering of the service has been started but the buffer amount is little, in a case that the requested scheduling rate in the scheduling information or the requested transmission rate obtained according to the requested amount of scheduling data is greater than the preset maximum transmission rate, the determining unit 602 determines the preset maximum transmission rate as the maximum rate value of the scheduling rate, and determine a rate no greater than the preset maximum transmission rate as the scheduling rate. At this time, preferably, the determining unit 602 may determine a rate slightly less than the preset maximum transmission rate as the scheduling rate. In a case that the requested scheduling rate in the scheduling information or the requested transmission rate obtained according to the requested amount of scheduling data is no greater than the preset maximum transmission rate, the determining unit 602 determines the preset maximum transmission rate as the maximum rate value of the scheduling rate, determines the requested scheduling rate in the scheduling information or the request transmission rate obtained according to the data amount of the request scheduling as the minimum rate value of the scheduling rate, and determines a value between the minimum rate value and the maximum rate value as the scheduling rate.
If the service state information includes the state in which the amount of data to be run stored in the buffer area is greater than or equal to the second preset value, or the state in which the time length for running, which corresponds to the amount of data to be run of the service stored in the buffer area, is greater than or equal to the forth preset value, the determining unit 602 reduces a scheduling priority of the service, and, in a case that the requested scheduling rate in the scheduling information or the requested transmission rate obtained according to the requested amount of scheduling data is no greater than a guarantee rate, the determining unit 602 determines the requested scheduling rate in the scheduling information or a requested transmission rate obtained according to the requested amount of scheduling data as the maximum rate value of the scheduling rate; and, in a case that the requested scheduling rate in the scheduling information or the requested transmission rate obtained according to the requested amount of scheduling data is greater than the guarantee rate, the determining unit 602 determines a rate no greater than the guarantee rate as the scheduling rate.
Where, the guarantee rate is a minimum transmission rate guaranteeing normal running of the service.
When the service state information is the state in which the amount of data to be run stored in the buffer area is greater than or equal to the second preset value, or the state in which the time length for running, which corresponds to the amount of data to be run of the service stored in the buffer area, is greater than or equal to the forth preset value, it indicates that a buffer has buffered an enormous amount of data to be run of the service, at this time, the determining unit 602 reduces the scheduling priority of the service, and reduces the scheduling rate, i.e., the transmission rate no greater than the guarantee rate is determined as the scheduling rate.
