Description
技术领域technical field
本发明涉及通信领域,尤其涉及一种网络覆盖空洞的处理方法、微基站及相关设备。The present invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a method for processing network coverage holes, a micro base station and related equipment.
背景技术Background technique
网络覆盖空洞是指通信网络中的无信号区域,或弱信号区域。当用户设备(UserEquipment,简称UE)进入网络覆盖空洞时,UE在通信过程中话音(或数据)质量恶化到不可接受,会造成UE与基站之间无线链路失败(RadioLinkFailure,简称RLF)。由于宏基站建设成本高昂,建设周期长,网络运营商一般在宏基站的覆盖范围内部署微基站,以扩大网络覆盖区域和提升网络通信性能。A network coverage hole refers to a no-signal area, or a weak signal area, in a communication network. When a user equipment (User Equipment, referred to as UE) enters a network coverage hole, the voice (or data) quality of the UE deteriorates to unacceptable during communication, which will cause a radio link failure (RadioLink Failure, referred to as RLF) between the UE and the base station. Due to the high cost and long construction period of macro base stations, network operators generally deploy micro base stations within the coverage area of macro base stations to expand network coverage and improve network communication performance.
为解决UE在网络覆盖空洞内掉话的问题,现有技术中,微基站可以设置信号强度门限,当UE对服务小区进行测量得到的信号强度低于该信号强度门限时,微基站启动异频切换,将UE切换到宏基站,使得UE可以通过宏基站与核心网保持通信链路。为了保证RLF的UE都能够顺利切换,微基站一般将信号强度门限设置为信号强度波动区间的上限。In order to solve the problem of UE dropping calls in the network coverage hole, in the prior art, the micro base station can set a signal strength threshold. When the signal strength measured by the UE on the serving cell is lower than the signal strength threshold, the micro base station starts the inter-frequency Handover, the UE is handed over to the macro base station, so that the UE can maintain a communication link with the core network through the macro base station. In order to ensure smooth handover of RLF UEs, the micro base station generally sets the signal strength threshold as the upper limit of the signal strength fluctuation range.
在实际应用中,UE和微基站通信正常时,其信号强度也可能低于该信号强度门限,此时微基站会启动异频切换,将正常通信的UE切换到宏基站,因此造成微基站的使用容量低于实际容量,造成了微基站的容量损失。In practical applications, when the communication between the UE and the micro base station is normal, its signal strength may also be lower than the signal strength threshold. The used capacity is lower than the actual capacity, resulting in capacity loss of the micro base station.
发明内容Contents of the invention
本发明提供了一种网络覆盖空洞掉话的处理方法、微基站及相关设备,能够解决覆盖空洞掉话的问题,并提高微基站的容量。The invention provides a method for processing call drop due to network coverage holes, a micro base station and related equipment, which can solve the problem of call drop due to coverage holes and improve the capacity of the micro base station.

微基站接收用户设备UE上报的测量信息,测量信息包括三个以上邻近小区的小区标识以及小区信号强度;The micro base station receives the measurement information reported by the user equipment UE, and the measurement information includes cell identities and cell signal strengths of more than three neighboring cells;
微基站判断实际测量信息集合中是否存在实际测量信息与测量信息匹配,实际测量信息为在网络覆盖空洞中对邻近小区进行测量得到的测量信息;The micro base station judges whether the actual measurement information in the actual measurement information set matches the measurement information, and the actual measurement information is the measurement information obtained by measuring adjacent cells in the network coverage hole;
若存在实际测量信息与测量信息匹配,微基站根据测量信息,或与测量信息匹配的实际测量信息,从邻近小区中确定目标小区;If there is a match between the actual measurement information and the measurement information, the micro base station determines the target cell from neighboring cells according to the measurement information, or the actual measurement information that matches the measurement information;
微基站与目标基站进行切换协商,若协商成功,则微基站向UE发送小区切换命令,使得UE从服务小区切换至目标小区,其中,微基站与服务小区对应,目标基站与目标小区对应。The Femto base station conducts handover negotiation with the target base station. If the negotiation is successful, the Femto base station sends a cell handover command to the UE, so that the UE is handed over from the serving cell to the target cell.

或,or,
微基站确定与测量信息匹配的实际测量信息中,小区信号强度最强的邻近小区为目标小区。The micro base station determines that the neighboring cell with the strongest signal strength among the actual measurement information matching the measurement information is the target cell.

宏基站根据服务小区的小区信号强度判断UE是否处于网络覆盖空洞,若是,则根据服务小区的小区标识向UE发送异频测量配置信息,使得UE根据异频测量配置信息对邻近小区进行测量;The macro base station judges whether the UE is in a network coverage hole according to the cell signal strength of the serving cell, and if so, sends inter-frequency measurement configuration information to the UE according to the cell identity of the serving cell, so that the UE can measure adjacent cells according to the inter-frequency measurement configuration information;

本发明中,微基站接收UE上报的测量信息,判断实际测量信息集合中是否存在实际测量信息与测量信息匹配;若存在,则根据所述测量信息,或与所述测量信息匹配的实际测量信息,从三个以上邻近小区中选取目标小区;微基站与目标基站进行切换协商,若协商成功,则微基站向UE发送小区切换命令,将UE从服务小区切换至目标小区。由于在服务小区的不同地点,UE测量三个以上邻近小区得到的测量信息不同,因此测量信息与UE的地理位置的映射关系具有唯一性,微基站存储网络覆盖空洞的测量信息集合。当UE接近网络覆盖空洞时,此时测量信息与实际测量信息能够成功匹配,微基站可以将UE提前切换至邻近小区,从而解决了覆盖空洞掉话的问题;同时,本发明中,微基站仅切换网络覆盖空洞或网络覆盖空洞周围的UE,避免了将正常UE切换到邻近小区的问题,因此提高了微基站的容量。In the present invention, the micro base station receives the measurement information reported by the UE, and judges whether the actual measurement information matches the measurement information in the actual measurement information set; , select a target cell from more than three neighboring cells; the Femto base station conducts handover negotiation with the target base station, and if the negotiation is successful, the Femto base station sends a cell handover command to the UE to handover the UE from the serving cell to the target cell. Since the measurement information obtained by the UE from measuring three or more neighboring cells is different in different locations of the serving cell, the mapping relationship between the measurement information and the geographical location of the UE is unique, and the femto base station stores the measurement information set of the network coverage hole. When the UE is close to a network coverage hole, the measurement information and the actual measurement information can be successfully matched at this time, and the micro base station can handover the UE to an adjacent cell in advance, thus solving the problem of call drop due to the coverage hole; at the same time, in the present invention, the micro base station only Handover the network coverage hole or the UEs around the network coverage hole avoids the problem of handing over normal UEs to adjacent cells, thus improving the capacity of the micro base station.

UE,是指能够执行应用程序,与微基站或宏基站通信的电子设备。UE可以为手机、平板电脑、个人数字助理(PersonalDigitalAssistant,简称PDA)或销售终端(PointofSales,简称POS)、车载电脑等电子设备。UE refers to an electronic device capable of executing application programs and communicating with a micro base station or a macro base station. The UE may be an electronic device such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a personal digital assistant (Personal Digital Assistant, PDA for short), a sales terminal (Point of Sales, POS for short), and a vehicle-mounted computer.
为了避免网络覆盖空洞掉话,并提高微基站的容量,本发明提供了一种网络覆盖空洞掉话的处理方法,请参阅图1,方法包括以下过程:In order to avoid call drop due to network coverage hole and improve the capacity of the micro base station, the present invention provides a method for processing call drop due to network coverage hole, please refer to Figure 1, the method includes the following processes:
一、微基站建立实际测量信息集合:1. The micro base station establishes the actual measurement information set:
S101、宏基站接收UE发送的无线链路失败指示;S101. The macro base station receives a radio link failure indication sent by the UE;
本实施例中,当用户进入服务小区中的网络覆盖空洞时,UE与服务小区的微基站之间的无线链路连接失败,即发生掉话的情况,UE可以和宏基站重新建立通信链路,并上报无线链路失败指示,无线链路失败指示携带有服务小区的小区标识和小区信号强度。In this embodiment, when the user enters a network coverage hole in the serving cell, the wireless link connection between the UE and the micro base station of the serving cell fails, that is, a call drop occurs, and the UE can re-establish a communication link with the macro base station , and report a radio link failure indication, where the radio link failure indication carries the cell identity and cell signal strength of the serving cell.
S102、宏基站根据服务小区的小区信号强度判断UE是否处于网络覆盖空洞,若是,则执行步骤S103,若否,则执行步骤S106;S102, the macro base station judges whether the UE is in a network coverage hole according to the cell signal strength of the serving cell, if yes, execute step S103, if not, execute step S106;
宏基站可以预设网络覆盖空洞门限,当宏基站接收无线链路失败指示之后,可以获取无线链路失败指示携带的小区信号强度,当小区信号强度低于网络覆盖空洞门限时,宏基站确定UE处于网络覆盖空洞,因此需要为UE重建通信链路,执行步骤S103;当小区信号强度高于网络覆盖空洞门限时,宏基站确定UE的无线链路失败是其他原因造成的,例如邻频干扰、信息帧的传输质量差等,宏基站可以执行步骤S106。The macro base station can preset the network coverage hole threshold. After the macro base station receives the wireless link failure indication, it can obtain the cell signal strength carried by the radio link failure indication. When the cell signal strength is lower than the network coverage hole threshold, the macro base station determines that the UE In the network coverage hole, it is necessary to rebuild the communication link for the UE, and perform step S103; when the signal strength of the cell is higher than the network coverage hole threshold, the macro base station determines that the wireless link failure of the UE is caused by other reasons, such as adjacent channel interference, If the transmission quality of the information frame is poor, etc., the macro base station may perform step S106.
其中,网络覆盖空洞门限的门限值可以通过经验设定,也可以是经实际测量获取。小区信号强度以参考信号接收功率(ReferenceSignalReceivingPower,简称RSRP)为例,当RSRP小于-85dBm时,业务呼叫成功率很低,掉话率较高,网络覆盖空洞门限可以设置为-85dBm。Wherein, the threshold value of the network coverage hole threshold may be set through experience, or may be obtained through actual measurement. Cell signal strength takes Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP for short) as an example. When RSRP is less than -85dBm, the service call success rate is very low and the call drop rate is high. The network coverage hole threshold can be set to -85dBm.
S103、宏基站根据服务小区的小区标识向UE发送异频测量配置信息,使得UE根据异频测量配置信息对邻近小区进行测量;S103. The macro base station sends inter-frequency measurement configuration information to the UE according to the cell identity of the serving cell, so that the UE measures adjacent cells according to the inter-frequency measurement configuration information;
其中,测量配置信息包含UE需要测量的对象、小区列表、报告方式、测量标识、服务小区质量门限控制、移动状态检测、数量配置等参数。事件参数等。异频测量配置信息是指测量对象为与服务小区频点不同的小区。Among them, the measurement configuration information includes parameters such as the object to be measured by the UE, the cell list, the reporting method, the measurement identifier, the quality threshold control of the serving cell, the detection of the moving state, and the quantity configuration. event parameters etc. The inter-frequency measurement configuration information means that the measurement object is a cell with a frequency point different from that of the serving cell.
当宏基站确定UE处于网络覆盖空洞时,宏基站根据UE上报的小区标识获取异频测量配置信息,将该异频测量配置信息发送给UE,UE根据异频测量配置信息对邻近小区的小区信号强度进行测量。When the macro base station determines that the UE is in a network coverage hole, the macro base station obtains the inter-frequency measurement configuration information according to the cell identity reported by the UE, and sends the inter-frequency measurement configuration information to the UE, and the UE performs the inter-frequency measurement configuration information on the cell signals of neighboring cells. Strength is measured.
具体的,在网络覆盖区域可以预设采样地点,UE可以在采样地点对邻近小区测量得到实际测量信息,实际测量信息包括N个邻近小区的小区身份标识(Identity,简称ID)和小区信号强度,N≥3。Specifically, the sampling location can be preset in the network coverage area, and the UE can measure the adjacent cells at the sampling location to obtain actual measurement information. The actual measurement information includes the cell identity (Identity, ID for short) and cell signal strength of N adjacent cells. N≥3.
例如,服务小区为小区A,测量对象为三个邻近小区B,小区C,小区D,在采样地点1测量得到小区信号强度分别为(R1,R2,R3),实际测量信息1为(B(R1),C(R2),D(R3)),在采样地点2测量得到小区信号强度分别为实际测量信息2为(B(R4),C(R5),D(R6)),在采样地点3测量得到小区信号强度分别为(R7,R8,R9),则实际测量信息3为(B(R7),C(R8),D(R9)),如表1所示:For example, the serving cell is cell A, and the measurement objects are three neighboring cells B, C, and D. The signal strengths of the cells measured at sampling location 1 are (R1, R2, R3), and the actual measurement information 1 is (B( R1), C(R2), D(R3)), the cell signal strength measured at sampling location 2 is respectively the actual measurement information 2 is (B(R4), C(R5), D(R6)), at the sampling location 3 The cell signal strength obtained by measurement is (R7, R8, R9), and the actual measurement information 3 is (B(R7), C(R8), D(R9)), as shown in Table 1:
表1Table 1
在实际应用中,在其他采样地点测量小区信号强度的方式与上述测量过程相似,此处不再赘述。In practical applications, the manner of measuring the cell signal strength at other sampling locations is similar to the above measurement process, and will not be repeated here.
需要说明的是,在实际应用中,如果无需确定UE对应网络覆盖空洞内的某个地点,那么实际测量信息也可以省去地点,如表2所示:It should be noted that in practical applications, if there is no need to determine a certain location in the network coverage hole corresponding to the UE, the actual measurement information can also omit the location, as shown in Table 2:
表2Table 2
S104、宏基站接收UE发送的实际测量信息;S104. The macro base station receives the actual measurement information sent by the UE;
由于UE与服务小区无法通信,因此UE获取实际测量信息之后,将实际测量信息发送给宏基站,宏基站可以接收UE发送的实际测量信息。Since the UE cannot communicate with the serving cell, after acquiring the actual measurement information, the UE sends the actual measurement information to the macro base station, and the macro base station can receive the actual measurement information sent by the UE.
S105、宏基站将实际测量信息发送给微基站。S105. The macro base station sends the actual measurement information to the micro base station.
其中,该微基站与上述服务小区对应。宏基站将实际测量信息发送给该微基站,该微基站获取实际测量信息之后,可以将实际测量信息存储在本地,并根据实际测量信息建立实际测量信息集合。Wherein, the micro base station corresponds to the above serving cell. The macro base station sends the actual measurement information to the micro base station, and after the micro base station obtains the actual measurement information, it can store the actual measurement information locally, and establish an actual measurement information set according to the actual measurement information.
可以理解的是,宏基站可以通过周期发送,或即时发送的方式发送实际测量信息,此处不作限定。It can be understood that the macro base station may send the actual measurement information in a periodic sending manner or in a real-time sending manner, which is not limited here.
S106、宏基站执行其他流程。S106. The macro base station executes other processes.
当UE不处于网络覆盖空洞时,宏基站可以执行默认的运营商策略,也可以执行其他流程。When the UE is not in a network coverage hole, the macro base station can execute a default operator policy, and can also execute other procedures.
可选的,宏基站根据实际测量信息建立实际测量信息集合,将实际测量信息集合发送给微基站。Optionally, the macro base station establishes an actual measurement information set according to the actual measurement information, and sends the actual measurement information set to the micro base station.
具体的,宏基站接收来自服务小区的若干个实际测量信息之后,可以根据实际测量信息建立实际测量信息集合,再将实际测量信息集合发送给上述服务小区的微基站,该微基站将该实际测量信息集合存储在本地。Specifically, after the macro base station receives several pieces of actual measurement information from the serving cell, it can establish an actual measurement information set according to the actual measurement information, and then send the actual measurement information set to the micro base station of the serving cell, and the micro base station will use the actual measurement information Information collections are stored locally.
图1所示实施例和可选实施例中,微基站可以根据来自网络覆盖空洞的实际测量信息,建立网络覆盖空洞对应的实际测量信息集合。In the embodiment and optional embodiments shown in FIG. 1 , the micro base station may establish an actual measurement information set corresponding to the network coverage hole according to the actual measurement information from the network coverage hole.
二、获取测量信息,将测量信息和实际测量信息集合中实际测量信息进行匹配:2. Obtain measurement information and match the measurement information with the actual measurement information in the actual measurement information set:
S201、微基站接收UE上报的测量信息,测量信息包括三个以上邻近小区的小区标识以及小区信号强度;S201. The micro base station receives measurement information reported by the UE, where the measurement information includes cell identities and cell signal strengths of more than three neighboring cells;
本实施例中,微基站与服务小区对应,UE可以在服务小区内测量邻近小区的小区信号强度,得到测量信息,将该测量信息发送给微基站,微基站可以接收该测量信息。该测量信息包括三个以上邻近小区的小区标识以及小区信号强度,测量信息的格式与图1所示实施例中的实际测量信息格式相似,此处不再赘述。In this embodiment, the micro base station corresponds to the serving cell, and the UE can measure the cell signal strength of neighboring cells in the serving cell, obtain measurement information, and send the measurement information to the micro base station, and the micro base station can receive the measurement information. The measurement information includes cell identities and cell signal strengths of more than three adjacent cells. The format of the measurement information is similar to the actual measurement information format in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 , and will not be repeated here.
S202、微基站判断实际测量信息集合中是否存在实际测量信息与测量信息匹配,若存在,则执行步骤S203;S202. The micro base station judges whether the actual measurement information matches the measurement information in the actual measurement information set, and if yes, execute step S203;
其中,实际测量信息是指在网络覆盖空洞中对上述邻近小区进行测量得到的测量信息。由于服务小区的每个地点测量三个以上邻近小区的小区信号强度不同,因此测量信息与服务小区的地点一一对应,若实际测量信息集合中存在实际测量信息与测量信息匹配时,表明UE所处位置位于该实际测量信息的采样地点周围,UE掉话的概率很大,因此UE需要切换到信号强度较好的邻近小区中,以避免掉话的情况发生,执行步骤S203,若不存在,则表明UE所处位置不在网络覆盖空洞范围内,不需要切换,可以执行运营商默认策略。Wherein, the actual measurement information refers to the measurement information obtained by measuring the adjacent cells in the network coverage hole. Since the cell signal strengths of more than three adjacent cells measured at each location of the serving cell are different, the measurement information corresponds to the location of the serving cell one by one. If the actual measurement information matches the measurement information in the actual measurement information set, it indicates that the UE The location is located around the sampling location of the actual measurement information, and the probability of the UE dropping the call is very high. Therefore, the UE needs to switch to an adjacent cell with better signal strength to avoid the occurrence of the calling drop. Step S203 is executed. If not, It indicates that the location of the UE is not within the scope of the network coverage hole, no handover is required, and the operator's default policy can be implemented.
微基站判断实际测量信息集合中是否存在实际测量信息与测量信息匹配,具体可以包括以下实现方式:The micro base station determines whether the actual measurement information matches the measurement information in the actual measurement information set, and may specifically include the following implementation methods:
微基站分别以与实际测量信息集合中每个实际测量信息为目标实际测量信息,判断测量信息中每个小区信号强度与目标实际测量信息中对应的小区信号强度之差的绝对值,是否均不大于对应的预设小区阈值,若是,则确定目标实际测量信息与测量信息匹配。The micro base station takes each actual measurement information in the actual measurement information set as the target actual measurement information, and judges whether the absolute value of the difference between the signal strength of each cell in the measurement information and the corresponding cell signal strength in the target actual measurement information is equal to is greater than the corresponding preset cell threshold, and if so, it is determined that the actual measurement information of the target matches the measurement information.
具体的,由于测量信息与实际测量信息均在服务小区内测量所得,因此测量信息与实际测量信息中对应的邻近小区相同或相似。微基站可以通过邻近小区标识来对测量信息与实际测量信息进行匹配,比如,按照小区B,小区C,小区D,将测量信息的小区信号强度与目标实际测量信息的小区信号强度进行比较,若差别极小,可以认为测量信息与实际测量信息相同,或非常接近,确定目标实际测量信息与测量信息匹配。其中,不同邻近小区对应的预设小区阈值可以相同,也可以不同。Specifically, since both the measurement information and the actual measurement information are measured in the serving cell, the measurement information is the same as or similar to the corresponding adjacent cell in the actual measurement information. The micro base station can match the measurement information with the actual measurement information through the identifiers of neighboring cells. For example, according to cell B, cell C, and cell D, the cell signal strength of the measurement information is compared with the cell signal strength of the target actual measurement information. If If the difference is very small, it can be considered that the measurement information is the same as the actual measurement information, or very close, and it is determined that the actual measurement information of the target matches the measurement information. Wherein, the preset cell thresholds corresponding to different adjacent cells may be the same or different.
举例来说,实际测量信息如表2所示,测量信息为(B(Rx),C(Ry),D(Rz)),将测量信息与实际测量信息1进行比较,具体判断如下:For example, the actual measurement information is shown in Table 2, the measurement information is (B(Rx), C(Ry), D(Rz)), the measurement information is compared with the actual measurement information 1, and the specific judgment is as follows:
若测量信息中的每个小区信号强度与实际测量信息1中对应的小区信号强度之差的绝对值,均不大于对应的预设小区阈值,即︱Rx-R1︱≤Y1;︱Ry-R2︱≤Y2;︱Rz–R3︱≤Y3;三个不等式同时成立,则确定测量信息与实际测量信息1匹配;若︱Rx-R1︱≤Y1;︱Ry-R2︱≤Y2;︱Rz–R3︱≤Y3;三个不等式没有同时成立,则确定测量信息与实际测量信息1不匹配;其中,Y1为小区B对应的预设小区阈值,Y2为小区C对应的预设小区阈值,Y3为小区D对应的预设小区阈值。If the absolute value of the difference between the signal strength of each cell in the measurement information and the signal strength of the corresponding cell in the actual measurement information 1 is not greater than the corresponding preset cell threshold, that is︱Rx-R1︱≤Y1;︱Ry-R2 ︱≤Y2; ︱Rz–R3︱≤Y3; if the three inequalities hold simultaneously, it is determined that the measurement information matches the actual measurement information 1; if ︱Rx-R1︱≤Y1; ︱Ry-R2︱≤Y2; ︱Rz–R3 ︱≤Y3; if the three inequalities do not hold at the same time, it is determined that the measurement information does not match the actual measurement information 1; among them, Y1 is the preset cell threshold corresponding to cell B, Y2 is the preset cell threshold corresponding to cell C, and Y3 is the cell The preset cell threshold corresponding to D.
需要说明的是,还可以不使用绝对值进行比较,还可以采用其他计算方式进行比较,此处不作限定。It should be noted that the comparison may also be performed without using absolute values, and other calculation methods may also be used for comparison, which is not limited here.
当测量信息与实际测量信息1匹配时,微基站可以执行步骤S203,也可以继续将测量信息与实际测量信息集合中的其他实际测量信息进行比较;当测量信息与实际测量信息1不匹配时,微基站继续将测量信息与实际测量信息2,实际测量信息3,…,实际测量信息n进行比较,直至其中一个实际测量信息与测量信息匹配,则执行步骤S203。When the measurement information matches the actual measurement information 1, the micro base station may execute step S203, or may continue to compare the measurement information with other actual measurement information in the actual measurement information set; when the measurement information does not match the actual measurement information 1, The Femtocell continues to compare the measurement information with actual measurement information 2, actual measurement information 3, . . . , actual measurement information n until one of the actual measurement information matches the measurement information, then step S203 is executed.
若实际测量信息集合中所有实际测量信息都与测量信息不匹配,则表明测量信息不在网络覆盖空洞内,UE无需进行切换,微基站可以执行运营商默认策略,或其他流程,此处不作限定。If all the actual measurement information in the actual measurement information set does not match the measurement information, it means that the measurement information is not in the network coverage hole, the UE does not need to perform handover, and the micro base station can execute the operator's default policy or other procedures, which are not limited here.
S203、若实际测量信息集合中存在实际测量信息与测量信息匹配,则微基站根据测量信息,或与测量信息匹配的实际测量信息,从邻近小区中确定目标小区;S203. If the actual measurement information matches the measurement information in the actual measurement information set, the Femto base station determines the target cell from neighboring cells according to the measurement information or the actual measurement information that matches the measurement information;
其中,测量信息和实际测量信息都包括三个以上邻近小区的信号强度。Wherein, both the measurement information and the actual measurement information include signal strengths of more than three adjacent cells.
具体的,微基站可以通过多种方式从三个以上邻近小区中选取目标小区,具体包括以下实现方式:Specifically, the micro base station can select a target cell from more than three adjacent cells in various ways, specifically including the following implementation methods:
1)、微基站可以确定测量信息中,小区信号强度最强的邻近小区为目标小区;1), the micro base station can determine that in the measurement information, the neighboring cell with the strongest cell signal strength is the target cell;
举例来说,小区信号强度以RSRP为例,测量信息为(B(-52dBm),C(-64dBm),D(-72dBm)),小区B的小区信号最强,微基站可以确定小区B为目标小区。For example, take RSRP as an example for the cell signal strength, the measurement information is (B(-52dBm), C(-64dBm), D(-72dBm)), the cell signal of cell B is the strongest, and the micro base station can determine that cell B is target area.
或,or,
2)、微基站确定与测量信息匹配的实际测量信息中,小区信号强度最强的邻近小区为目标小区。2) The micro base station determines that among the actual measurement information that matches the measurement information, the neighboring cell with the strongest cell signal strength is the target cell.
举例来说,小区信号强度以RSRP为例,与测量信息匹配的实际测量信息为(B(-50dBm),C(-60dBm),D(-70dBm)),小区B的小区信号最强,微基站可以确定小区B为目标小区。For example, take RSRP as an example for the cell signal strength. The actual measurement information that matches the measurement information is (B(-50dBm), C(-60dBm), D(-70dBm)). The base station may determine cell B as the target cell.
可以理解的是,在实际应用中,还可以根据实际情况,采用小区信号强度不是最强的邻近小区作为目标小区,此处不作限定。It can be understood that in practical applications, a neighboring cell whose signal strength is not the strongest may also be used as the target cell according to the actual situation, which is not limited here.
S204、微基站与目标基站进行切换协商,若协商成功,则执行步骤S205;S204, the micro base station performs handover negotiation with the target base station, and if the negotiation is successful, execute step S205;
其中,目标基站可以是宏基站,微基站或是其他类型的接入网网元,此处不作限定。Wherein, the target base station may be a macro base station, a micro base station or other types of access network elements, which are not limited here.
S205、微基站向UE发送小区切换命令,使得UE从服务小区切换至目标小区。S205. The micro base station sends a cell handover command to the UE, so that the UE is handed over from the serving cell to the target cell.
其中,微基站与服务小区对应,目标基站与目标小区对应。由步骤S204和S205可知,当微基站确定目标小区之后,服务小区的微基站和目标小区的目标基站可以进行切换协商,将UE从服务小区切换至目标小区,具体过程可参阅现有技术,此处不再赘述。Wherein, the micro base station corresponds to the serving cell, and the target base station corresponds to the target cell. It can be seen from steps S204 and S205 that after the micro base station determines the target cell, the micro base station of the serving cell and the target base station of the target cell can perform handover negotiation to handover the UE from the serving cell to the target cell. The specific process can refer to the prior art, here I won't repeat them here.
在本发明实施例中网络覆盖空洞掉话的处理方法中,UE需要向微基站上报测量信息,下面从UE侧对本发明实施例中网络覆盖空洞掉话的处理方法进行介绍:In the method for processing call drop due to network coverage holes in the embodiment of the present invention, the UE needs to report measurement information to the micro base station. The following describes the method for processing call drop due to network coverage holes in the embodiment of the present invention from the UE side:
S301、UE测量三个以上邻近小区的小区信号强度,得到测量信息;S301. The UE measures cell signal strengths of more than three adjacent cells to obtain measurement information;
本实施例中,测量信息包括上述三个以上邻近小区的小区信号强度。In this embodiment, the measurement information includes cell signal strengths of the above three or more neighboring cells.
S302、UE向微基站发送测量信息,使得微基站将测量信息与实际测量信息集合中的实际测量信息进行匹配;S302. The UE sends measurement information to the micro base station, so that the micro base station matches the measurement information with the actual measurement information in the actual measurement information set;
其中,实际测量信息为在网络覆盖空洞中对邻近小区进行测量得到的测量信息。UE向微基站发送测量信息,微基站判断实际测量信息集合中是否存在实际测量信息与该测量信息匹配,若匹配,执行步骤S303,若不匹配,则表明UE不在网络覆盖空洞内,可以执行运营商默认策略,此处不作限定。Wherein, the actual measurement information is measurement information obtained by measuring adjacent cells in a network coverage hole. The UE sends measurement information to the micro base station, and the micro base station judges whether the actual measurement information in the actual measurement information set matches the measurement information. If it matches, execute step S303. If it does not match, it indicates that the UE is not in the network coverage hole and can perform operation. The vendor's default policy is not limited here.
S303、UE接收微基站发送的小区切换命令,根据小区切换命令从服务小区切换至目标小区。S303. The UE receives a cell switching command sent by the Femtocell, and switches from the serving cell to the target cell according to the cell switching command.
若实际测量信息集合中存在实际测量信息与测量信息匹配,则表明UE处于网络覆盖空洞,或在网络覆盖空洞周围,微基站向UE发送小区切换命令,UE可以接收该小区切换命令,根据该小区切换命令从服务小区切换至目标小区,其中,目标小区为三个以上邻近小区中的一个。If there is a match between the actual measurement information and the measurement information in the actual measurement information set, it indicates that the UE is in a network coverage hole, or around the network coverage hole, the micro base station sends a cell handover command to the UE, and the UE can receive the cell handover command. The handover command is handover from the serving cell to the target cell, wherein the target cell is one of more than three neighboring cells.
结合上述图1至图3所示实施例,下面以一个信令流程图对本发明中的网络覆盖空洞的处理方法进行介绍,如图4所示。Combining the above embodiments shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 , the method for processing network coverage holes in the present invention will be introduced below with a signaling flow chart, as shown in FIG. 4 .
为便于理解,下面以一具体应用场景对本发明中网络覆盖空洞的处理方法进行详细说明:For ease of understanding, the method for processing network coverage holes in the present invention will be described in detail below in a specific application scenario:
在本具体应用场景中,UE为手机,服务小区为小区A,邻近小区为小区B,小区C,小区D,小区信号强度为RSRP;小区信号强度门限为-100dBm;In this specific application scenario, the UE is a mobile phone, the serving cell is cell A, the neighboring cells are cell B, cell C, and cell D, and the cell signal strength is RSRP; the cell signal strength threshold is -100dBm;
当在小区A的网络覆盖空洞的地点1,地点2,地点3,…,地点n测量得到信号强度,得到实际测量信息如下表所示:When the signal strength is measured at the location 1, location 2, location 3, ..., location n where the network coverage of cell A is empty, the actual measurement information obtained is shown in the following table:
宏基站接收到测量信息之后,转发给微基站1,微基站1接收测量信息之后,建立实际测量信息集合。After the macro base station receives the measurement information, it forwards it to the micro base station 1, and the micro base station 1 establishes an actual measurement information set after receiving the measurement information.
手机在小区A内对小区B,小区C,小区D进行异频测量,得到测量信息为(-52dBm,-58dBm,-72dBm),将测量信息发送给小区1的微基站1,微基站1将(-52dBm,-58dBm,-72dBm)与实际测量信息集合中的实际测量信息1进行比较,分别计算小区B,小区C,小区D对应的小区信号强度之差,预设小区阈值以3dB为例,︱-52-50︱<3,︱-58-60︱<3︱-72-70︱<3同时成立,由此可以确定该测量信息与测量信息1(-50dBm,-60dBm,-70dBm)匹配,表明UE处于网络覆盖空洞附近;The mobile phone performs inter-frequency measurement on cell B, cell C, and cell D in cell A, and the measurement information obtained is (-52dBm, -58dBm, -72dBm), and the measurement information is sent to micro base station 1 of cell 1, and micro base station 1 will (-52dBm, -58dBm, -72dBm) is compared with the actual measurement information 1 in the actual measurement information set, and the difference in the signal strength of the cells corresponding to cell B, cell C, and cell D is calculated respectively. The preset cell threshold is 3dB as an example . match, indicating that the UE is near a network coverage hole;
由于-52dBm>-58dBm>-72dBm,微基站1确定小区B为目标小区,微基站1和小区B的微基站2进行切换协商,微基站1向手机1发送小区切换命令,手机1与微基站2建立通信链路,从小区A切换到小区B。Since -52dBm>-58dBm>-72dBm, micro base station 1 determines cell B as the target cell, micro base station 1 and micro base station 2 of cell B conduct handover negotiation, micro base station 1 sends a cell handover command to mobile phone 1, mobile phone 1 and micro base station 2 Establish a communication link and switch from cell A to cell B.
假设测量信息为(-70dBm,-55dBm,-78dBm),微基站1将测量信息分别与测量信息1,测量信息2,测量信息3进行比较,根据︱-70-50︱>3,︱-70-60︱>3,︱-70-40︱>3,可知UE不在网络覆盖空洞,无需切换。Assuming that the measurement information is (-70dBm, -55dBm, -78dBm), the micro base station 1 compares the measurement information with measurement information 1, measurement information 2, and measurement information 3 respectively, according to︱-70-50︱>3,︱-70 -60︱>3,︱-70-40︱>3, it can be seen that the UE is not in a network coverage hole and does not need to be handed over.
本发明可以确定UE是否处于网络覆盖空洞或网络覆盖空洞附近,当UE位于网络覆盖空洞边缘时,提前将UE进行切换,从而避免UE掉话的情况发生,同时当UE没有处于网络覆盖空洞或网络覆盖空洞附近时,不会将小区A内通信正常的UE进行切换,因此提高了微基站的容量。The present invention can determine whether the UE is in a network coverage hole or near the network coverage hole. When the UE is located at the edge of the network coverage hole, the UE is switched in advance to avoid the occurrence of UE call drop. At the same time, when the UE is not in the network coverage hole or the network When the coverage hole is nearby, UEs with normal communication in cell A will not be handed over, thus improving the capacity of the micro base station.
基于上述实施例提供的网络覆盖空洞掉话的处理方法,请参阅图5,本发明提供一种微基站500,可以实现图2所示实施例中微基站的功能,微基站500包括:Based on the processing method of network coverage hole call drop provided by the above embodiments, please refer to FIG. 5.

为便于理解,下面以一具体应用场景对本发明中宏基站、微基站和UE之间各模块之间交互进行详细说明:For ease of understanding, the interaction between the modules of the macro base station, micro base station and UE in the present invention will be described in detail below in a specific application scenario:
在本具体应用场景中,UE为手机,服务小区为小区A,邻近小区为小区B,小区C,小区D,小区信号强度为RSRP;In this specific application scenario, the UE is a mobile phone, the serving cell is cell A, the neighboring cells are cell B, cell C, and cell D, and the cell signal strength is RSRP;
当在小区A的网络覆盖空洞的地点1,地点2,地点3,…,地点n测量得到邻近小区的信号强度,得到实际测量信息如下表所示:When the network coverage of cell A is empty at point 1, point 2, point 3, ..., point n, the signal strength of the adjacent cell is measured, and the actual measurement information is obtained as shown in the following table:
接收单元701接收到实际测量信息之后,发送单元703将该信息转发给微基站1,接收单元501接收实际测量信息之后,存储单元601存储该实际测量信息,建立单元602建立实际测量信息集合。After the receiving unit 701 receives the actual measurement information, the sending unit 703 forwards the information to the micro base station 1, after the receiving unit 501 receives the actual measurement information, the storage unit 601 stores the actual measurement information, and the establishing unit 602 establishes an actual measurement information set.
测量单元801在小区A内对小区B,小区C,小区D进行异频测量,得到测量信息为(-52dBm,-58dBm,-72dBm),发送单元802将测量信息发送给小区1的微基站1,判断单元502将(-52dBm,-58dBm,-72dBm)与实际测量信息集合中的实际测量信息1进行比较,分别计算小区B,小区C,小区D对应的小区信号强度之差的绝对值,预设小区阈值以3dB为例,︱-52-50︱<3,︱-58-60︱<3,︱-72-70︱<3同时成立,由此可以确定该测量信息与测量信息1(-50dBm,-60dBm,-70dBm)匹配,表明UE处于网络覆盖空洞附近;由于-52dBm>-58dBm>-72dBm,确定单元503确定小区B为目标小区,切换协商单元504和小区B的微基站2进行切换协商,发送单元505向接收单元803发送小区切换命令,接收单元803接收小区切换命令,手机1与微基站2建立通信链路,切换单元804根据该小区切换命令从小区A切换到小区B。The measurement unit 801 performs inter-frequency measurement on the cell B, cell C, and cell D in the cell A, and the measurement information obtained is (-52dBm, -58dBm, -72dBm), and the sending unit 802 sends the measurement information to the micro base station 1 of the cell 1 , the judging unit 502 compares (-52dBm, -58dBm, -72dBm) with the actual measurement information 1 in the actual measurement information set, and calculates the absolute value of the difference in cell signal strength corresponding to cell B, cell C, and cell D respectively, The preset cell threshold is 3dB as an example, ︱-52-50︱<3, ︱-58-60︱<3, ︱-72-70︱<3 are established at the same time, so it can be determined that the measurement information and measurement information 1( -50dBm, -60dBm, -70dBm) match, indicating that the UE is near the network coverage hole; because -52dBm>-58dBm>-72dBm, the determination unit 503 determines that the cell B is the target cell, and the handover negotiation unit 504 and the micro base station 2 of the cell B Handover negotiation is performed, the sending unit 505 sends a cell switching command to the receiving unit 803, the receiving unit 803 receives the cell switching command, the mobile phone 1 establishes a communication link with the micro base station 2, and the switching unit 804 switches from cell A to cell B according to the cell switching command .
假设测量信息为(-70dBm,-55dBm,-78dBm),判断单元502将测量信息分别与测量信息1,测量信息2,测量信息3进行比较,︱-70-50︱>3,︱-70-60︱>3,︱-70-40︱>3,可知UE不在网络覆盖空洞,无需切换,可以执行运营商默认策略。Assuming that the measurement information is (-70dBm, -55dBm, -78dBm), the judging unit 502 compares the measurement information with measurement information 1, measurement information 2, and measurement information 3, ︱-70-50︱>3, ︱-70- 60︱>3,︱-70-40︱>3, it can be seen that the UE is not in a network coverage hole, no handover is required, and the operator’s default policy can be implemented.
本发明可以确定UE是否处于网络覆盖空洞或网络覆盖空洞附近,当UE位于网络覆盖空洞边缘时,提前将UE进行切换,从而避免UE掉话的情况发生,同时当UE没有处于网络覆盖空洞或网络覆盖空洞附近时,不会将小区A内通信正常的UE进行切换,因此提高了微基站的容量。The present invention can determine whether the UE is in a network coverage hole or near the network coverage hole. When the UE is located at the edge of the network coverage hole, the UE is switched in advance to avoid the occurrence of UE call drop. At the same time, when the UE is not in the network coverage hole or the network When the coverage hole is nearby, UEs with normal communication in cell A will not be handed over, thus improving the capacity of the micro base station.
