Description
A METHOD OF UPDATING CHANNEL INFORMATION BY A MOBILE
STATION THAT IS IN POWER SAVING MODE
Technical Field The present invention relates to a method of updating channel information, and more particularly, to a method of updating channel information by a mobile station that is in power saving mode.
Background Art In a Broadband Wireless Access System, an operation of a power saving mode is as follows. A paging zone refers to all the paging areas covered by a plurality of base stations. Here, all the base stations in the same paging zone share a same paging cycle (i.e., Paging_Cycle) and a same paging offset (i.e., Paging Offset).
In the system, a mobile station (MS) can request to enter a power saving mode from the base station (BS). The BS can then permit the MS to enter the power saving mode by transmitting its paging group identification (i.e, Paging_Group_ID) and the paging cycle and the paging offset, both corresponding to the paging group ID.
Upon receiving the paging group ID, the corresponding paging cycle, and the corresponding paging offset, the MS can then enter the power saving mode.
During the power saving mode, the MS receives a broadcast message in a form of a paging broadcast message (i.e., MOB-PAG-ADV) from the BS at specified paging cycle. From the paging broadcast message, the MS can determine whether to maintain or terminate the power saving mode.
STATION THAT IS IN POWER SAVING MODE
Technical Field The present invention relates to a method of updating channel information, and more particularly, to a method of updating channel information by a mobile station that is in power saving mode.
Background Art In a Broadband Wireless Access System, an operation of a power saving mode is as follows. A paging zone refers to all the paging areas covered by a plurality of base stations. Here, all the base stations in the same paging zone share a same paging cycle (i.e., Paging_Cycle) and a same paging offset (i.e., Paging Offset).
In the system, a mobile station (MS) can request to enter a power saving mode from the base station (BS). The BS can then permit the MS to enter the power saving mode by transmitting its paging group identification (i.e, Paging_Group_ID) and the paging cycle and the paging offset, both corresponding to the paging group ID.
Upon receiving the paging group ID, the corresponding paging cycle, and the corresponding paging offset, the MS can then enter the power saving mode.
During the power saving mode, the MS receives a broadcast message in a form of a paging broadcast message (i.e., MOB-PAG-ADV) from the BS at specified paging cycle. From the paging broadcast message, the MS can determine whether to maintain or terminate the power saving mode.
If a situation arises where the MS has to send uplink traffic to the BS, the MS
can terminate the power saving mode anytime. Conversely, if a situation arises where the MS, which is in the power saving mode, has to receive downlink traffic from the BS, the BS sends the paging broadcast message to instruct the MS to terminate the power saving mode.
Alternatively, if the MS, which is in a power saving mode fails to receive the paging broadcast message at the specified time as a result of moving to another paging zone or by failure to synchronize, then the MS has to terminate the power saving mode.

In connection with the present invention, a more detailed description of a power saving mode as well as a Downlink Channel Descriptor (DCD) and an Uplink Channel Descriptor (UCD) is provided in an IEEE 802.16e specification document.
As described above, the MS in a power saving mode receives a paging broadcast message (i.e., MOB PAG ADV), which is transmitted according to a paging cycle, froin the BS in the paging zone. Here, the power saving mode can be an idle mode or a sleep mode.
Table 1 represents an example of a Paging-Group-Action message for forming a paging zone. Here, the base stations can transmit messages between each other via a wired connection (e.g., a cable).

PAGING CYCLE 16 bits Cycle in which the paging message in transmitted within the paging group PAGING OFFSET 8 bits MSS PAGING OFFSET parameter }
Security field TBD A mean to authenticate this message CRC field 32 bits IEEE CRC-32 }
The messages transmitted between the base stations can be used for following four purposes based on the indication of action bits. That is, if an action field indicates that Action = 0, then the message can include a command to assign a target BS
to a specified paging group. Here, the target BS is the BS that receives the message from another BS. On the contrary, if the action field indicates that Action = 1, then the message can include a command to remove or exclude the target BS from a specified paging group. Furthermore, if the action field indicates that Action = 2, then the message can include a query as to which paging group the target BS belongs.
Lastly, if the action field indicates that Action = 3, then the message can include information as to which paging group a sender BS belongs. Here, the sender BS is the BS that transmits the message from another BS.
Because one BS can belong to more than one paging group, a paging-group-action message can include information on a plurality of paging groups. In addition, the base stations can gain access to the paging cycle and the paging offset of each paging zone from the paging-group-action, which is shared by base stations.
Table 2 is an example of a deregistration request message (i.e., DREG REQ), which is a message by the MS to request to enter a power saving mode.
[Table 2]

Management Message Type=29 8 bits OxOO=SS de-registration request from BS

paging Availability Mode 0x02-OxFF=reserved De-registration Request Code 8 bits Only valid if De-Registration Request Code=0x01 Paging Cycle Request 16 bits TLV encoded parameter variable }
According to Table 2, the MS can set a De-Registration Request Code of the DREG REQ message to 'OxOl,' and request for deregistration from a serving BS.
That is, the MS requests the BS for pennission to enter a power saving mode. Here, the serving BS refers to the BS which sends paging information to mobile stations in its coverage area. In addition, the MS can send its preferred paging cycle in the DREG_REQ message.
Table 3 is an example of a deregistration command message (i.e., DREG_CMD).
[Table 3]
Syntax Size Notes DREG-REQ_1Vlessage_Format() {
Management Message Type=29 8 bits Action Code 8 bits TLV encoded parameter variable }
Using an 'Action Code' of the DREG CMD message, the BS can permit the MS to enter a power saving mode (e.g., Action Code = 0x05), have the MS
request again the request to enter a power saving mode (e.g., Action Code = 0x06), or have the MS wait (or cease the requests to enter the power saving mode) until the BS
transmits the DREG CMD message (e.g., Action Code = 0x07).
Table 4 is an example of action codes of a deregistration command (i.e., DREG_CMD) message.

The paging group ID, the paging cycle, and the paging offset must be kept (unchanged) while the corresponding MS is in the power saving mode. After the MS enters the power saving mode, the MS receives a paging broadcast (i.e., MOB-PAG-ADV) message at specified paging cycle(s) and at specified paging offset. Based on the paging broadcast message, the MS can remain in or tenninate the power saving mode.
Table 5 represents an example of a paging broadcast (i.e., MOB-PAG-ADV) message.

In the Broadband Wireless Access System, the MS has to receive a Downlink Channel Descriptor/Uplink Channel Descriptor (DCD/UCD) for network entry when the MS turns on power and for network re-entry in performing operations such as handover.

The DCD/UCD messages are physical layers paraineters which apply to each allocated burst intervals for downlink and uplink. Moreover, the DCD/UCD
messages include information on a modulation scheme and a Forward Error Correction (FEC) code type. Furthermore, using the DCD/UCD messages, necessary parameters (e.g., K
and R values of a RS code) are provided according to various FEC code types.
These types of parameters can be provided via Burst Profile. Here, the Burst Profile is provided for each Uplink Interval Usage Code (UIUC) and Downlink Interval Usage Code (DIUC) from the UCD and the DCD.
The status information or the parameters and setting that can be included in the DCD/UCD messages can vary depending on the physical layers. As such, the paraineters or settings provided in Tables 8 and 9 can be included in a'TLV

In the system, the DCD/UCD messages are not limited to settings or paraineters contained in Tables 8 and 9. In other words, the DCD/UCD messages can include other information besides the information listed in Tables 8 and 9.
As shown in Table 6 - Table 9, the DCD/UCD message contains large volumes of information. As such, it would be inefficient for the MS to decode every DCD/UCD
messages received. Furthermore, the DCD/UCD message of Tables 6 and 7 includes Configuration Change Count parameter. Here, the Configuration Change Counter can increase by increments of one (1) if the value(s) contained in the current DCD/UCD
message is (are) different from the value(s) contained in a previous DCD/UCD
message. In other words, if the MS recognizes that there is change in status information of a received DCC/UCD from status information of the DCD/UCD
stored _ in the MS, then the Configuration Change Counter increases by a specified increment.
The settings or parameters can also be referred to as status information.
As discussed above, lengths of the DCD/UCD messages are not only long but information contained in the DCD/UCD messages are relatively constant. That is, the DCD/UCD messages generally do not change often. Therefore, the DCD/UCD
messages are not transmitted in every frame, and more realistically, the DCD/UCD
messages are transmitted periodically with a maximum period of 10 seconds, for example.

The DCD/UCD messages are physical layers paraineters which apply to each allocated burst intervals for downlink and uplink. Moreover, the DCD/UCD
messages include information on a modulation scheme and a Forward Error Correction (FEC) code type. Furthermore, using the DCD/UCD messages, necessary parameters (e.g., K
and R values of a RS code) are provided according to various FEC code types.
These types of parameters can be provided via Burst Profile. Here, the Burst Profile is provided for each Uplink Interval Usage Code (UIUC) and Downlink Interval Usage Code (DIUC) from the UCD and the DCD.
The status information or the parameters and setting that can be included in the DCD/UCD messages can vary depending on the physical layers. As such, the paraineters or settings provided in Tables 8 and 9 can be included in a'TLV

In the system, the DCD/UCD messages are not limited to settings or paraineters contained in Tables 8 and 9. In other words, the DCD/UCD messages can include other information besides the information listed in Tables 8 and 9.
As shown in Table 6 - Table 9, the DCD/UCD message contains large volumes of information. As such, it would be inefficient for the MS to decode every DCD/UCD

messages are not transmitted in every frame, and more realistically, the DCD/UCD
messages are transmitted periodically with a maximum period of 10 seconds, for example.
As for the BS, the BS transmits the DCD/UCD message containing a new status information (or new values) after waiting a specified time period so that all mobile stations in its cell coverage area can receive the DCD/UCD message.
Here, the Configuration Change Counter included in the DCD/UCD message increases by an increment of 1). Thereafter, the BS applies the updated or changed status information of the DCD/UCD to the burst profile of the uplink/downlinlc fraine(s).
As shown in Table 10 and Table 11, the updated status information can be provided to the MS by using a DL-MAP message and a'DCD/UCD Count' field included in an UL-MAP message. Since the DL-MAP message and the UL-MAP

After the MS receives an updated DL-MAP/UL-MAP having status information different from that of the previous status information, the MS
uses the status information (or values) included in the last received DCD/UCD message to decode the bursts included in the corresponding DL-MAP/UL-MAP.
Figure 1 is a diagram illustrating an example of an operation of a power saving mode according to updated status information of a DCD/UCD.
If the paging broadcast message is configured to be transmitted using a predetermined coding and modulation schemes, then the MS in the power saving mode can still receive the paging broadcast message even if no DCD/UCD message is received.
However, if the predetermined coding and modulation schemes are not used, the MS in the power saving mode does not receive a DCD/UCD message, and the BS
changes (or updates) the coding and modulation schemes, the MS has to terminate the power saving mode since the MS is unable to decode the paging broadcast message.
Alternatively, if the MS belongs to the same paging group but moves to a cell using different coding and modulation schemes, the MS has to terminate the power saving mode since the MS cannot decode the paging broadcast message. Alternatively, if the MS in the power saving mode does not receive any DCD/UCD messages, the re-entry to the network by the MS can take additional time since the MS has to receive the DCD/UCD message in order to receive the current coding and modulation schemes.
As such, it seems necessary and practical for the MS in the power saving mode to be able to receive the DCD/UCD messages.
If the MS is configured to receive the DCD/UCD messages while in the power saving mode, the MS in the power saving mode can decode the downlinlc frame during a specified cycle. Furthermore, if the DCD/UCD status information (or values) are updated or changed during a Paging Unavailable Interval or if the MS has moved to another cell within the same paging group, the MS has to continuously receive and decode all subsequent downlink frames until the new DCD/UCD message with updated or changed status information is received. Here, the Paging Unavailable Interval is an interval or a period in which the MS does not receive and decode any downlink frames in order to conserve power. Moreover, as discussed above, the DCD/UCD message contains a Configuration Change Counter which is independently managed by each BS. For example, a first BS and a second BS belong to the same paging group. However, since the Configuration Change Counters independent of each other BS, the Counter of the first BS could be indicating 2 while the Counter of the second BS could be indicating 5. In addition, since the transmission cycle of the DCD/UCD message can be long (e.g., up to 10 seconds per cycle), the power consumption of the MS in the power saving mode can be significant.

The paging broadcast message of Table 12 is different from the paging broadcast message of Table 5 in that the paging broadcast message of Table 12 includes a DCD/UCD Transmission Indication to determine whether transmission of the DCD/UCD message is scheduled during the Paging Unavailable Interval.

Figure 2 illustrates an example of a transmission operation of a paging broadcast message of Table 12 or a common downlink notification DL-MAP IE of Table 14. Referring to Figure 2, the MS that is in the power saving mode identifies a change in the Configuration Change Counter included in the DCD/UCD message from the paging broadcast message received during the paging listening interval.
Once the change is identified, the MS that is in the power saving mode has to obtain the DCD/UCD transmission indication parameters of the paging broadcast message which is received during the paging listening interval.
If the DCD/UCD transmission identification parameter is '0,' the MS knows that no DCD/UCD message transmitted during the next paging unavailable interval.
Then the MS maintains normal power saving mode instead of waiting to receive the UCD/DCD message until the next paging listening interval.
On the contrary, the DCD/UCD transmission identification parameter set to '1' signifies that the DCD/UCD message is to be transmitted during the next paging unavailable interval. As such, the MS does not return to paging unavailable interval even after expiration of the listening interval until the MS receives the DCD/UCD
message. In other words, the MS stays awake (maintains listening interval) until the DCD/UCD message is received. Upon receipt, the MS returns to the paging unavailable interval.
Figure 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of an operation of a DCD/UCD
transmission offset of Tables 13 and 14. In Figure 3, the paging broadcast message can indicate an exact time (or frame) of when the DCD/UCD message is to be included in the transmission of the paging broadcast message. Therefore, the corresponding mobile stations can receive the DCD/UCD messages during the paging unavailable interval.
As another embodiment of the present invention, a DCD/UCD transmission offset can be used, instead of the DCD/UCD transmission indication to indicate whether the DCD/UCD message is transmitted during the paging unavailable interval.
Here, the DCD/UCD transmission indication of Table 12 is reinoved or not used in the paging broadcast message. However, if the situation calls for the BS to transmit a DCD/UCD message during the paging unavailable interval, the DCD/UCD
transinission offset TLV parameter can be included in the paging broadcast message, and the MS stays awake or enter paging unavailable interval until the paging broadcast message containing the DCD/UCD message is received, even after expiration of the listening interval. Alternatively, if the BS does not transmit the DCD/UCD
message during the next paging unavailable interval, the DCD/UCD transmission offset TLV
parameter is not included in the paging broadcast message. After the MS
receives this paging broadcast message absent the DCD/UCD transmission offset TLV parameter and recognizes that the DCD/UCD message is not expected to be transmitted during the next paging unavailable interval. Therefore, the MS maintains normal power saving operation mode without staying awake.
Figure 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a paging cycle synchronized to a DCD/UCD transmission cycle. As illustrated in Figure 4, if the paging cycle of the power saving mode and the DCD/UCD message transmission cycle (i.e., DCD/UCD
interval) are synchronized, all mobile stations in the paging listening interval of the power saving mode can receive the DCD/UCD messages during every paging listening interval. As such, the features of the embodiments of the present invention can be realized without the proposed operations presented in the embodiments of the present invention.
Figure 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of an initial ranging operation by the MS according to coding scheme and modulation schemes changes in the BS.
First, to perfonn initial ranging operation, the DCD/UCD message has to be received by the MS. Thereafter, if the MS is directed to perform initial ranging operation, then the BS
can transmit the DCD/UCD message to the MS that is in the power saving mode.
After the MS receives the ranging request message via the paging broadcast message, the MS performs following ranging operation. First, the MS receives the DCD/UCD message, followed by transmitting a ranging request (i.e., RNG-REQ) message, and thereafter receives a ranging response (i.e., RNG-RSP) message.
After the ranging response message is received, the MS maintains the power saving mode.
That is, if the MS receives and successfully decodes the DCD message and the UCD
message and also receives the ranging response message, then the MS enters the paging unavailable interval to maintain the power saving mode.
Figure 6 is diagram illustrating an example of an operation using a frame number instead of the DCD/UCD transmission offset of Table 14. If the DCD/UCD
transmission offset is used, the transmission offset has to be 16 bits considering a 16-bit maximum paging cycle of the power saving mode and a 10-second maximum DCDIUCD transmission cycle (e.g., 2000 fraines where 1 frame = 5milliseconds).
As for using the frame number, even if lower 8 bits are used, a frame to transmit the DCD/UCD can be indicated, thus able to decrease the size of the transmission message.
Once the change is identified, the MS that is in the power saving mode has to obtain the DCD/UCD transmission indication parameters of the paging broadcast message which is received during the paging listening interval.
If the DCD/UCD transmission identification parameter is '0,' the MS knows that no DCD/UCD message transmitted during the next paging unavailable interval.
Then the MS maintains normal power saving mode instead of waiting to receive the UCD/DCD message until the next paging listening interval.
On the contrary, the DCD/UCD transmission identification parameter set to '1' signifies that the DCD/UCD message is to be transmitted during the next paging unavailable interval. As such, the MS does not return to paging unavailable interval even after expiration of the listening interval until the MS receives the DCD/UCD
message. In other words, the MS stays awake (maintains listening interval) until the DCD/UCD message is received. Upon receipt, the MS returns to the paging unavailable interval.
Figure 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of an operation of a DCD/UCD
transmission offset of Tables 13 and 14. In Figure 3, the paging broadcast message can indicate an exact time (or frame) of when the DCD/UCD message is to be included in the transmission of the paging broadcast message. Therefore, the corresponding mobile stations can receive the DCD/UCD messages during the paging unavailable interval.
As another embodiment of the present invention, a DCD/UCD transmission offset can be used, instead of the DCD/UCD transmission indication to indicate whether the DCD/UCD message is transmitted during the paging unavailable interval.
Here, the DCD/UCD transmission indication of Table 12 is reinoved or not used in the paging broadcast message. However, if the situation calls for the BS to transmit a DCD/UCD message during the paging unavailable interval, the DCD/UCD
transinission offset TLV parameter can be included in the paging broadcast message, and the MS stays awake or enter paging unavailable interval until the paging broadcast message containing the DCD/UCD message is received, even after expiration of the listening interval. Alternatively, if the BS does not transmit the DCD/UCD
message during the next paging unavailable interval, the DCD/UCD transmission offset TLV
parameter is not included in the paging broadcast message. After the MS
receives this paging broadcast message absent the DCD/UCD transmission offset TLV parameter and recognizes that the DCD/UCD message is not expected to be transmitted during the next paging unavailable interval. Therefore, the MS maintains normal power saving operation mode without staying awake.
Figure 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a paging cycle synchronized to a DCD/UCD transmission cycle. As illustrated in Figure 4, if the paging cycle of the power saving mode and the DCD/UCD message transmission cycle (i.e., DCD/UCD
interval) are synchronized, all mobile stations in the paging listening interval of the power saving mode can receive the DCD/UCD messages during every paging listening interval. As such, the features of the embodiments of the present invention can be realized without the proposed operations presented in the embodiments of the present invention.
Figure 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of an initial ranging operation by the MS according to coding scheme and modulation schemes changes in the BS.
First, to perfonn initial ranging operation, the DCD/UCD message has to be received by the MS. Thereafter, if the MS is directed to perform initial ranging operation, then the BS
can transmit the DCD/UCD message to the MS that is in the power saving mode.
After the MS receives the ranging request message via the paging broadcast message, the MS performs following ranging operation. First, the MS receives the DCD/UCD message, followed by transmitting a ranging request (i.e., RNG-REQ) message, and thereafter receives a ranging response (i.e., RNG-RSP) message.
After the ranging response message is received, the MS maintains the power saving mode.
That is, if the MS receives and successfully decodes the DCD message and the UCD
message and also receives the ranging response message, then the MS enters the paging unavailable interval to maintain the power saving mode.
Figure 6 is diagram illustrating an example of an operation using a frame number instead of the DCD/UCD transmission offset of Table 14. If the DCD/UCD
transmission offset is used, the transmission offset has to be 16 bits considering a 16-bit maximum paging cycle of the power saving mode and a 10-second maximum DCDIUCD transmission cycle (e.g., 2000 fraines where 1 frame = 5milliseconds).
As for using the frame number, even if lower 8 bits are used, a frame to transmit the DCD/UCD can be indicated, thus able to decrease the size of the transmission message.
If the frame number is used instead of the DCD/UCD transmission offset, information listed in Table 15 can be additionally included to the paging broadcast message of Table 5 in a TLV format. Table 15 is an example of using a frame number in a TLV format in the paging broadcast message.

That is, the MS awakes up or exits the paging unavailable interval during the frame. After the UCD/DCD messages are received, the MS returns to or enters the paging unavailable interval for maintaining the power saving mode.
However, if the MS fails to successfully decode the DCD/UCD message and if the BS does not transmit the DCD message or the UCD message at the specified transmission frame, the MS has to receive and decode all subsequent downlink frames to receive the DCD message or the UCD message with updated or changed status information or parameters. After the UCD/DCD messages are received, the MS
returns to or enters the paging unavailable interval for maintaining the power saving mode.
As illustrated in Figure 6, if the DCD/UCD message is scheduled to be transmitted during the next paging unavailable interval (e.g., at frame A), the BS can transmit information which includes that the message is to be transmitted via either the paging broadcast message, the DCD/UCD transmission indication of the common downlink notification DL-MAP IE, or the DCD/UCD transmission offset bitmap during the next paging unavailable interval.
Furthermore, the BS can indicate the lower 8 bits of the frame number, through which actual transmission is to take place, using the DCD transmission frame and the UCD transmission frame. Using this scheme, the MS can receive the DCD/UCD
inessage transmitted to the corresponding frame even during the paging unavailable interval.
As indicated in Table 14 and Table 16, the DCD transmission indication, the UCD transmission indication, and the DCD/UCD transmission offset bitmap has a length of 1 bit, 1 bit, and 2 bits, respectively. Here, information contained in the DCD

Bit 0: DCD transmission during next Paging Unavailable Interval.
Bit 1: UCD transmission during next Paging Unavailable Interval.
As shown in Table 18, a flag can be used to indicate whether the DCD/UCD is scheduled during the paging unavailable interval. For example, if the flag value or parameter is '00,' this indicates that there is no DCD/UCD transmission scheduled during the next paging unavailable interval. If the parameter of the flag is '01,' this indicates that only the DCD is scheduled for transmission. Moreover, if the flag parameter is '10,' this indicates that only the UCD is scheduled for transmission.
Lastly, if the flag parameter is ' 1 l,' then this indicates that both the DCD
and the UCD
is scheduled for transmission.
In another embodiinent of the present invention, an operation of updating channel information can be performed by an apparatus in a power saving mode.
Figure 7 is an example of an apparatus in a power saving mode which is used to update channel information. In Figure 7, the apparatus includes a receiver 10 which receives status information, such as the DCD message and/or the UCD message, of a first channel descriptor and transmission frame inforination which includes when the first channel descriptor is scheduled to be transmitted. The apparatus further includes a comparator 20 which is used to compare status information of the first channel descriptor with status inforination of a second channel descriptor. Here, the second channel descriptor is stored in a memory 30 of the MS. Furthermore, the receiver 10 also receives the first channel descriptor according to the transmission frame information if the compared status information from the comparator 20 are different.
