Description

Method, device and system for controlling a self-optimizing switch

technical field

The invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a method, device and system for controlling a self-optimizing switch.

Background technique

In the LTE (Long Term Evolution, long-term evolution) system, SON (Self Organizing Networks, self-organizing network) technology is adopted. SON solidifies the experience of experts and intelligent technologies into automatic programs, enabling the network to automatically collect data, automatically analyze and find problems, and automatically adjust The ability of self-optimization (Self-Optimization) is a use case of SON.

For the self-optimization of SON, sometimes it is hoped that they can run automatically, automatically optimize the calculation of network parameters, performance, etc., and hope to be able to know the status of self-optimization at any time to achieve complete self-optimization management. However, at certain times (such as network-wide debugging and testing or when the network operation is already very stable), it is desirable to maintain the status quo of the network instead of starting network self-optimization. Even in some special occasions (such as debugging some functions of the network, etc.), it is only hoped that a certain part of the network will stop self-optimization without affecting the operation of other self-optimization processes. Therefore, these actual scenario requirements require that LTE not only provide self-optimization of the network, but also must be able to control the start and stop of each optimization function.

3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project, third generation partnership project) network management has introduced the concept of integration reference point (Integration Reference Point, IRP). The information model of the interface defined by IRP includes: managed objects, resource model (NRM), information interaction semantics and so on. Among them, the object of NRM management is all the physical and logical networks owned by the operator and the nodes connected to these networks (such as physical equipment in the computer room, etc.). There is a standard northbound interface (Interface-N) between the integrated reference point manager (IRPManager) and the integrated reference point agent (IRPAgent).

At present, the IRPs that 3GPP has defined include: Alarm (alarm) IRP, BasicCM (basic configuration management) IRP, BulkCM (big data configuration management) IRP, PM (performance management) IRP, GenericNetworkResource (general network resource) IRP, Notification (notification) ) IRP, Inventory (stock) IRP, etc. These IRPs have met most of the interface requirements and business requirements.

However, in the self-optimization management of SON, these existing IRPs cannot satisfy the requirement of controlling the start and stop of the self-optimization process, and cannot know the status of the self-optimization process at any time.

Embodiment four:

In the embodiment of the present invention, a self-optimizing IRP is newly added in the 3GPP northbound interface, and related operations of the IRP are defined to achieve the purpose of controlling the self-optimizing switch.

An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for controlling a self-optimizing switch. As shown in Figure 5, the method includes:

501. The integrated reference point manager issues a query command to the integrated reference point agent.

The user sends a query command to the IRPAgent through the IRPManager, instructing to obtain the self-optimization switch supported by the corresponding managed unit. For example, in a specific implementation process, the format of the above query command may be: listSoFuncSwitch(ctrlObjInfomation, optimizationTypeList).

Among them, the input parameter ctrlObjInfomation represents the managed unit that provides self-optimization capabilities, and the possible value types are character strings or enumeration types, and the possible values are: EM (network element management system), NEinstance (one or more network elements instance) and NETYPE (network element type). optimizationTypeList is a list of optimization switch types owned by the managed unit, and the type of each element in the list is optimizationType, respectively representing the type of optimization switches owned by the managed unit.

Specifically, the optimizationType type can be enumerated. For example, LB, ICIC, HO, RACH, CC, and ES can be used to represent load balancing self-optimization, inter-cell interference coordination self-optimization, handover self-optimization, and random access channel optimization. , Capacity and coverage self-optimization, energy saving self-optimization.

502. The integrated reference point agent returns the current state of the self-optimizing switch to the integrated reference point manager.

After the integrated reference point agent receives the query command issued by the integrated reference point manager, it queries the switch status of the self-optimization field supported by the corresponding managed unit, and returns through the current status information list of the self-optimized switch owned by the managed unit The current state of the queried self-optimizing switch, for example, returns the current state of the queried self-optimizing switch to the integrated reference point manager through the output parameter selfOptFuncSwitchList. selfOptFuncSwitchList is the current state information list of the optimization switch owned by the managed unit, and each element in the list is the managed unit, its optimization switch and the corresponding current state value list, such as (ctrlObjInfomation, List<optimizationType, switch>) . When the returned current state switch value is on (for intuition, use on instead of True, off instead of False, you can also directly use True, False to express, for example, you can use true to indicate that the switch is on, and false to indicate that the switch is off; of course, you can also Use true to indicate that the switch is off, and false to indicate that the switch is on.), indicating that the state of the switch is on, and when the returned current state value switch is off, it indicates that the state of the switch is off.

The following examples illustrate several query situations:

1. If the integrated reference point manager wants to query the inter-cell interference coordination self-optimization switch status on the EM, the issued query command format is: listSoFuncSwitch(EM,ICIC), if the returned query result is: EM, (ICIC, on), indicating that the current state of the inter-cell interference coordination self-optimization switch in the EM is on.

2. If the integrated reference point manager wants to query the status of the load balancing self-optimization switch and the inter-cell interference coordination self-optimization switch on the physical network element eNodeB_A, the issued query command format is: listSoFuncSwitch(eNodeB_A,(LB,ICIC)), If the returned query result is: eNodeB_A, (LB, on; ICIC, off), it indicates that the current state of the load balancing self-optimization switch on eNodeB_A is on, and the current state of the inter-cell interference coordination self-optimization switch is off.

3. If the integration reference point manager wants to query the status of two or more physical network elements, such as the load balancing self-optimization switch and the inter-cell interference coordination self-optimization switch on eNodeB_A and eNodeB_B, the query command format issued is: listSoFuncSwitch(( eNodeB_A, eNodeB_B), (LB, ICIC)), if the returned query result is: eNodeB_A, (LB, on, IC, off); eNodeB_B, (LB, on, ICIC, on), indicating that the load balancing on eNodeB_A is self-optimized The state of the switch is on, the state of the inter-cell interference coordination self-optimization switch is off, the state of the load balancing self-optimization switch on the eNodeB_B, and the state of the inter-cell interference coordination self-optimization switch are both on.

4. If the integration reference point manager wants to query the status of the load balancing self-optimization switch and inter-cell interference coordination self-optimization switch on a certain type of network element (such as eNodeB type), the query command format issued is: listSoFuncSwitch(ENBFunction, (LB,ICIC)), the returned result includes the status of the load balancing optimization switch and the inter-cell interference coordination self-optimization switch in all network elements of the eNodeB type. If the returned query result is: eNodeB_A, (LB, on; ICIC, off); eNodeB_B, (LB, on; ICIC, off), it indicates that the self-optimization of load balancing on eNodeB_A is enabled, and the inter-cell interference coordination self-optimization The switch status of the self-optimization of the load balance on eNodeB_B is on, and the switch status of the inter-cell interference coordination self-optimization is off.

503. The integrated reference point manager issues a setting command to the integrated reference point agent, instructing the managed unit to modify the state of the self-optimization switch to the target state.

For example, in the specific implementation process, the format of the setting command issued by the integration reference point manager is setSoFuncSwitch(ctrlObjInfomation, optimizationTypeSwitchList). Among them, ctrlObjInfomation represents the managed unit that provides self-optimization capabilities, and optimizationTypeSwitchList is a specific switch parameter list, such as Listof<optimizationType, switch>. For specific parameter descriptions, refer to the description in the query command listSoFuncSwitch.

The following examples illustrate several settings:

1. If the inter-cell interference coordination self-optimization switch in the EM needs to be set to ON, the integrated reference point manager sends the setting command setSoFuncSwitch(EM,ICIC,off) to the IRPAgent.

2. If it is necessary to set the inter-cell interference coordination self-optimization switch, capacity and coverage self-optimization switch in the network element entity eNodeB_A to ON, the integrated reference point manager issues the setting command setSoFuncSwitch(eNodeB_A,(ICIC,on ),(CC,on)).

3. If it is necessary to set the load balancing self-optimization switch, capacity and coverage self-optimization switch in the network element entities eNodeB_A and eNodeB_B to off, the integrated reference point manager issues the setting command setSoFuncSwitch((eNodeB_A, eNodeB_B),( LB, off), (CC, off)).

4. If the random access channel optimization switch and handover self-optimization switch in all network elements of type ENBFunction are to be set to on, the setting command issued by the integrated reference point manager to the IRPAgent is setSoFuncSwitch(ENBFunction,(RACH ,on),(HO,on)).

504. The integrated reference point agent returns a setting result to the integrated reference point manager.

After the integrated reference point agent receives the setting command issued by the integrated reference point manager, it also needs to return the setting result to the integrated reference point manager.

If the integrated reference point agent successfully sets the state of the self-optimizing switch to the target state, the integrated reference point agent returns true to the integrated reference point manager, if the integrated reference point agent does not successfully set the state of the self-optimizing switch to the target state, The integration reference point agent returns false to the integration reference point manager.

The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for controlling the self-optimizing switch. Through the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the state of the self-optimizing switch can be known at any time, and the state of the self-optimizing switch can be controlled, thereby controlling the startup or Stop to meet the needs of self-optimizing management.

Embodiment five:

An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for controlling a self-optimizing switch.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the control self-optimization switch is implemented by modifying the NRM in the existing NRMIRP. The embodiment of the present invention defines a corresponding switch attribute for each self-optimization field, and the switch takes a Boolean value. When the switch attribute is true, the self-optimization switch is turned on; otherwise, it is turned off.

Since the entities that provide self-optimization capabilities may be concentrated on the EM, scattered on each NE, or even distributed on both EM and NE at the same time, it is necessary to add switch control attributes to the NRMs of IRPAgent, EM, and NE respectively.

Table 2 shows the IRPAgent attribute table after adding switch control attributes.

Table 2

attribute name Support limited read limit write limit iRPAgentId m m - systemDN C m - selfOptHOFuncEnabled CM m m selfOptLBFuncEnabled CM m m selfOptICFuncEnabled CM m m selfOptCCFuncEnabled CM m m selfOptRACHFuncEnabled CM m m selfOptESFuncEnabled CM m m

Among them, the attributes iRPAgentId and systemDN are existing attributes of the existing IRPAgentNRM, and the attributes selfOptHOFuncEnabled, selfOptLBFuncEnabled, selfOptICFuncEnabled, selfOptCCFuncEnabled, selfOptRACHFuncEnabled, and selfOptESFuncEnabled are newly added attributes. M means mandatory, CM means mandatory under certain conditions, and C means conditional. For example, the attribute selfOptRACHFuncEnabled corresponds to a support limit of CM, a corresponding read limit of M, and a corresponding write limit of M. Note that when self-optimization is supported, the switch status of the attribute selfOptRACHFuncEnabled can be obtained by query, and the switch status of the attribute selfOptRACHFuncEnabled can be set.

Table 3 shows the ManagementNodeNRM attribute table of the EM after the switch control attribute is added.

When the integrated reference point agent is distributed on each NE, it is necessary to add switch control attributes in the NRM of each NE. For example, when the integrated reference point agent is distributed in network elements of the eNodeB type, it is necessary to add a switch control attribute in the NRM of the eNodeB. Table 4 shows the ENBFunctionNRM attribute table of the eNB after adding the switch control attribute.

The existing Basic/BulkCMIRP has defined how to query the NRM attributes and how to set the attributes. The embodiment of the present invention can use the existing Basic/BulkCMIRP operations to query the state of the self-optimizing switch, and to query the status of the self-optimizing The state of the switch is set to achieve the purpose of controlling the start or stop of self-optimization.
