Embodiment
As shown in Figure 1, the 3G (Third Generation) Moblie base station NB of standard is arranged not only in the network of 3G (Third Generation) Moblie, also distributed simultaneously and utilized broadband cable network to be linked into the indoor household base station HNB of core net.When new indoor household base station HNB-new prepares to install, reasonably select working frequency points avoid to outdoor base station NB and in the installation room performance impact of Home node base station HNB need the emphasis consideration.
The method of the autonomous setting HNB operating frequency that the present invention proposes, key point is: to the indoor household base station HNB-new of new access, on the position of the good several pre-mounting points of planning all frequencies in the HNB-new equipment institute support performance frequency range are searched for, obtaining on every side, the signal spectrum of 3G (Third Generation) Moblie base station NB and indoor household base station HNB distributes and broadcast; Analyte signal intensity, frequency band take and the spectrum distribution situation.By the information of equipment, seek best HNB-new installation site: (1) in each pre-mounting points, determines that the NB that receives and the signal of HNB exceed the minimum position of interference threshold level;
(2) when having base station NB signal to exist, guarantee that the NB received signal quality is good;
(3) indoor household base station can cover the zone that will provide professional.
Best in quality or the good base station NB of selective reception extracts the synchronisation source of synchronizing signal as HNB-new under the situation that has base station NB.The analysis spectrum characteristic is selected all available frequency bands.According to the maximum carrier number information that HNB-new supports, determine the occupied bandwidth of HNB-new, in available band region, the frequency band that selection and HNB-new occupied bandwidth are complementary, the working frequency points of definite main carrier and auxilliary carrier wave in the frequency band of selecting.Adopt this autonomous frequency configuration mode, the performance requirement in the time of can guaranteeing HNB-new and already present HNB or NB coexistence.
In the described method, indoor household base station can obtain identification code, the dominant frequency point of peripheral base station NB and assist information such as frequency; Obtain identification code, the dominant frequency point of ambient indoor Home node base station HNB and assist the information such as maximum carrier number of frequency, the actual support of equipment.
Realize that above method comprises following six step,
(1) in 2~3 position that are fit to install HNB-new of indoor selection
As the position A among Fig. 2, position B and position C.HNB-new equipment is placed on position A, position B and position C place respectively.
(2) after HNB-new powered on and finishes initialization, HNB-new was set to receive the reference level condition.Receiving reference level can be to receive reference sensitivity level or self-defined received signal level.HNB-new searches for NB and HNB on every side in all 3G (Third Generation) Moblie working frequency range of its support, and obtains the broadcast of each NB and HNB correspondence, comprising identification code, dominant frequency point with assist frequency point information.According to identification code, frequency point information, can obtain NB and the HNB distribution on frequency domain.Among Fig. 3, Fig. 4 and Fig. 5,101~105th, the HNB that searches at the HNB-new periphery; 201~204th, the NB that searches at the HNB-new periphery; The interference threshold control level is 401.
(3) select best position.
The signal of the peripheral HNB that receives at position A, position B and position C place and NB is analyzed and compared.Statistics exceeds the signal number and the level size of interference threshold on each pre-installation site.
If all signals that receive on each position all below interference threshold, show that then selected installation site A, B, C all can insert HNB-new.As Fig. 4, for the signal 201~204 of the signal 101~105 of peripheral HNB and NB all in the situation of interference threshold below 401.Select this moment all low and NB signal receiving quality of HNB signal level preferably the position as the installation site.
If the position of Fig. 4 correspondence does not exist, the signal of then seeking HNB and NB exceeds the minimum position of interference threshold 401 as the installation site.With Fig. 3 and Fig. 5 is example, and Fig. 3 is that the signal of HNB and NB exceeds the more installation site of interference threshold 401, and this position is selected undesirable to equipment work and available band.Fig. 5 is that the signal of HNB and NB exceeds the minimum installation site of interference threshold 401.Compare the data result of each position, the position of promptly selecting Fig. 5 correspondence is as best position.If each installation site exceeds the number of interference threshold 401 and equates, select all low and NB signal receiving quality of HNB signal level preferably the position as the installation site.
(4) in the best position received signal, analyze the signal distributions situation of HNB and NB, find out frequency band and working frequency points that synchronisation source NB, HNB-new that HNB-new extracts as synchronizing signal can use.
Analysis according to the signal that the optimum position is received, as Fig. 5, select better quality of signal base station NB 204 to extract the synchronisation source of synchronizing signal as HNB-new, set the frequency that HNB-new obtains synchronizing signal and be: NB selects the dominant frequency point of NB 204 during for multicarrier; When NB is single carrier, select the frequency of NB.HNB-new carries out the synchronous moment at needs and is transformed on the selected synchronous frequency, receives the downlink synchronous signal of NB 204, and then produces the synchronizing signal of HNB-new.
When the available band of selecting HNB-new and working frequency points, as Fig. 5, at first the signal 103 that exceeds interference threshold 401 is provided with protection interval 501 and 502, protection at interval should be more than or equal to the channel width of 2 3G (Third Generation) Moblies.Analyze the spectrum distribution of all signals, available frequency band 300~307 and frequency points corresponding ARFCN are extracted.According to HNB-new bandwidth of operation size: the bandwidth of single carrier or multicarrier correspondence, select frequency band that any one and HNB-new bandwidth of operation the be complementary cut-in operation frequency band as HNB-new in 300~307 the bandwidth selected, the interior frequency points corresponding of frequency band all can be used as the working frequency points of HNB-new.Be systematic function the best, the HNB-new that multicarrier is used can be preferably in the middle of frequency to put other as dominant frequency be to assist frequency.
Bandwidth in 300~307 frequency bands has nothing in common with each other, when selecting the working frequency points of HNB-new, at first select the frequency that satisfies in 300~307 in the fragmentary distribution frequency band that the HNB-new bandwidth of operation requires for use, such as the interior frequency points corresponding of 301,303,300,306 frequency bands among Fig. 5, the frequency in other frequency bands 304,307,302,305 comparatively complete, broad uses for the HNB of follow-up access.The advantage of this system of selection is that the HNB that can improve follow-up access greatly selects the efficient of working frequency points.
When HNB-new is operated in the frequency of above selection, satisfy performance requirement in the time of can guaranteeing to coexist with existing system.
(5) if in whole frequency ranges that HNB-new supports, do not have idle frequency band, then the HNB-new bandwidth of selecting the flat NB of light current or HNB and selecteed NB or HNB is more than or equal to the working frequency points of the frequency in the required bandwidth of HNB-new as HNB-new.If HNB-new is a single carrier to be used and selecteed HNB or NB equipment also are single carriers, then the identification code of HNB-new should select to be different from the identification code of HNB or NB; If selecteed HNB or NB's is multicarrier equipment, then the working frequency points of HNB-new is chosen on the auxilliary frequency of HNB or NB.Use if HNB-new is a multicarrier, then the dominant frequency point of HNB-new need be chosen on the auxilliary frequency of HNB or NB.
(6) all have installed the also HNB of operate as normal, according to the order from access controller APC, start autonomous frequency configuration at any time ambient signals is scanned.If be used for occurring in the synchronous signal receiving quality variation, working band disturbing, then need reselect synchronisation source, upgrade the frequency of obtaining synchronizing signal, reselect frequency band and working frequency points.Adopt the method to solve when NB configuration in base station changes, increases the NB website when the 3-G (Generation Three mobile communication system) dilatation, downlink synchronous signal changes to the influence of HNB.
Show that through actual tests said method has following utility function:
1, realized the detection of the indoor household base station best position of access soon;
2, searching under the situation that has base station NB on every side, can select the source of synchronising signal of the good base station NB of signal quality as indoor household base station HNB;
3, indoor household base station that the back can be inserted and the Interference Control between indoor base station HNB that has inserted or the base station NB are in reasonable range;
4, according to the signal distributions that searches peripheral base station NB and indoor household base station HNB, can extract all available frequency band and working frequency points;
5, support maximum carrier number according to the new indoor household base station that inserts, independently select bandwidth, the dominant frequency point that is complementary with its bandwidth of operation and assist frequency;
6, solved when a large amount of indoor household base stations are continuous to be inserted and install, 3G (Third Generation) Moblie carries out difficulty and the complexity that base station NB frequency planning faces.
7, indoor household base station is detecting when changing as synchronisation source with base station NB, can be autonomous or restart autonomous frequency configuration process according to the order of access controller.
