Abstract
Methods and devices for transmitting machine type communication (MTC) system information are provided. A base station determines the ability of an MTC apparatus to detect information in a cell. The ability to detect information includes whether the MTC apparatus supports searching for default MTC system information in a target resource region. The base station may further map a target physical resource in a time-frequency region corresponding to the preset sub-frame according to the information detection ability and a preset resource mapping manner. The target physical resource is used to load the default MTC system information. The base station may also broadcast the preset MTC system information by the target physical resource.
Claims19
A method for transmitting machine type communication (MTC) system information, applied to a base station, the method comprising:
- determining an information detection ability of an MTC apparatus in a cell, wherein the information detection ability comprises whether the MTC apparatus supports searching for preset MTC system information from a target resource region, wherein a time region of the target resource region is a time region of a control region of a preset sub-frame in an original long term evolution (LTE) system, wherein a frequency region of the target resource region is a frequency resource region occupied by the preset MTC system information in the original LTE system, and wherein the preset sub-frame is a sub-frame that carries the preset MTC system information;
- mapping a target physical resource in a time-frequency region corresponding to the preset sub-frame according to the information detection ability and a preset resource mapping manner, wherein the target physical resource is configured to carry the preset MTC system information;
- and
- broadcasting the preset MTC system information by the target physical resource.
A method for transmitting machine type communication (MTC) system information, applied to an MTC apparatus, the method comprising:
- obtaining preset MTC system information for accessing a cell network from a data region of a preset sub-frame, wherein the MTC apparatus supports searching for the preset MTC system information from a target resource region, a time region of the target resource region is a time region of a control region of the preset sub-frame in an original long term evolution LTE system, a frequency region of the target resource region is a frequency resource region occupied by the preset MTC system information in the original LTE system, and the preset sub-frame is a sub-frame that carries the preset MTC system information;
- accessing the cell network, wherein a time region of the data region is a time region excluding the control region in the preset sub-frame, and a frequency region of the data region corresponds to the frequency resource region occupied by the preset MTC system information in the original LTE system;
- obtaining broadcast configuration information sent by a base station, wherein the broadcast configuration information is configured to inform the MTC apparatus of a mapping range of a target physical resource in the preset sub-frame, and the target physical resource is configured to carry the preset MTC system information;
- and
- detecting the preset MTC system information in the preset sub-frame according to the broadcast configuration information.
A computing device, comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- a non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing instructions executable by the one or more processors, wherein, the one or more processors are configured to:
- determine information detection ability of a machine type communication MTC apparatus in a cell, wherein the information detection ability comprises whether the MTC apparatus supports searching for preset MTC system information from a target resource region, a time region of the target resource region is a time region of a control region of a preset sub-frame in an original LTE system, a frequency region of the target resource region is a frequency resource region occupied by the preset MTC system information in the original LTE system, and the preset sub-frame is a sub-frame that carries the preset MTC system information;
- map a target physical resource in a time-frequency region corresponding to the preset sub-frame according to the information detection ability and a preset resource mapping manner, wherein the target physical resource is configured to carry the preset MTC system information;
- and
- broadcast the preset MTC system information by the target physical resource.
