Relay service method and device

Abstract

The invention discloses a relay service method and device, and belongs to the technical field of communication. The scheme comprises the following steps: receiving a relay service request sent by a relay demand node; agreeing the relay service content with the relay demand node, wherein the relay service content comprises information of relay resources, information of service cost and information of a resource use node, the relay resources are resources provided by the relay service node to the resource use node, the service cost is cost of relay service paid by the relay demand node to the relay service node, and the resource use node is a node which is appointed by the relay demand node and uses relay resources; generating a resource allocation request according to the relay service content; sending the resource allocation request to a resource allocation node, so that the resource allocation node allocates relay resources of a relay service node to a resource use node; and when the preset termination condition is triggered, stopping the relay service and receiving the service fee paid by the relay demand node, so that the relay service can be promoted, and the resource utilization rate can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technologies, and in particular to a relay service method and device. Background technique [0002] D2D (Device-to-Device, device-to-device) technology can realize direct communication between terminals, thereby reducing the burden of the cellular system and expanding the capacity of the communication system. For example, after two terminals establish a D2D connection, the terminal providing the relay service becomes a mobile small antenna, so that the other terminal with a relatively weak signal can use the operator's network service stably and reliably through the relay service terminal. In practical applications, some resources of the terminal may not be fully utilized. In this case, the terminal may provide this part of resources to other terminals through a D2D-based relay service. However, the relay service provided by the terminal will not only occupy its own resources, but also lead t...
