Background technology
Fig. 1 is the mapping schematic diagram of existing LTE (Long Term Evolution, Long Term Evolution) descending transmission channel to physical channel, and Fig. 2 is the mapping schematic diagram of existing LTE uplink transport channel to physical channel, and in figure, each channel is respectively:
PBCH (Physical broadcast channel, Physical Broadcast Channel), this channel carries the information of the MIB (Master Information Block, control information piece) in broadcast.
PCFICH (Physical control format indicator channel, Physical Control Format Indicator Channel), this channel is used to refer to several OFDM in each subframe (O rthogonal Frequency DivisionMultiplex, OFDM) symbol is for control character.
PDCCH (Physical downlink control channel, Physical Downlink Control Channel), down control channel is indicated PDSCH (Physical Downlink Shared Channel by PDCCH, Physical Downlink Shared Channel) or PUSCH (Physical Uplink Shared Channel, Physical Uplink Shared Channel) running time-frequency resource, the information such as coded system.
PHICH (Physical Hybrid ARQ Indicator Channel, Physical HARQ Indicator Channel; HARQ:Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request, mixed automatic repeat request), this channel is used for carrying the descending HARQ feedback information of uplink.
PDSCH is DSCH Downlink Shared Channel.
PMCH (Physical multicast channel, Physical Multicast Channel) is Multicast Channel.
PUCCH (Physical uplink control channel, Physical Uplink Control Channel) be used for carrying the upward HARQ feedback information of downlink transfer, carry SR (scheduling request, dispatch request) information, carry CQI (Channel Quality Indicator, channel quality indication) report information.
PUSCH is Uplink Shared Channel.
PRACH (Physical random access channel) is Random Access Channel.
Broadcast is divided into two parts at present, and a part is in MIB, and by the PBCH carrying, another part is carried by PDSCH in SIB (System Information Block, system information block).At present for SON (Self Organizing Networks, self-organizing network) or MDT (minimization drive test, minimum road test) discussion, have scheme described that MIB in PBCH takes defeat and PDSCH in the record that takes defeat of SIB, then report, this information of network utilisation carries out SON or operator utilizes this information to carry out minimum road test.
Wherein can carry in up PUCCH:
1, the upward HARQ feedback information of downlink transfer;
2, dispatch request information (SR), the CQI report information.
Wherein SR information is to need to send when the UE uplink service, and when not having ascending resource to use, and is used for that the informing network request is scheduled.
MDT has measuring amount now:
The thought of MDT is to allow UE report relevant metrical information, or then corresponding failed turkey is recorded reported.UE also needs at this moment time is preserved when recording metrical information and turkey, then carries up together, is used for auxiliary network to do the network optimization.
Several UE measuring amount of having passed through at present are (specifically can with reference to 3GPP 36.805 V1.2)
1, Periodical downlink pilot measurements (the cycle descending pilot frequency is measured);
2, Serving Cell becomes worse than threshold (it is poorer than setting thresholding that service district becomes);
3, Transmit power headroom becomes less than threshold (it is poorer than setting thresholding that PHR becomes);
4, Random access failure (random access failure);
5, Paging Channel Failure (paging channel takes defeat);
6, Broadcast Channel failure (broadcast channel takes defeat).
In these 6 UE measuring amount, wherein the 2nd Serving Cell becomes worse thanthreshold (it is poorer than setting thresholding that service district becomes) considers that PUSCH is carried out covering problem to be checked.The 4th Random access failure (random access failure) is optimized for the PRACH channel.But for the PUCCH up channel, corresponding the measurement is not optimized.
Relating at present the scheme basic thought that PUCCH is carried out coverage optimization in prior art is:
Be in the UE of connection status in up, the certain SR resource of UE can be distributed in the base station.And the proprietary SR of this SR for carrying on PUCCH.If UE has upstream data to send and will send the upstream request Resources allocation by SR to the base station when there is no ascending resource.The base station determines whether to distribute to this UE resource, if it is bad that up channel covers, UE has sent SR and does not receive the base station, UE can not be scheduled, if this information does not send to network, network and do not know UE sent D-SR (dedicated-SR, proprietary-as SR), namely can not find up covering problem.Although certainly may have UE request but the base station not have the situation of scheduling, the base station can judge according to the time that UE reports up owing to not receiving that SR itself does not have to dispatch in this case, thereby determines whether it being up covering problem.
Therefore UE can not record this information after after transmission SR, X receives scheduling for a long time, and records the information such as time, position and residential quarter at this moment, and reports this information in the suitable time.Also can base station triggers report, the long X of this X can set as required.
UE does not record this information after can receiving scheduling after transmission SR is N time yet, and records the information such as time, position and residential quarter at this moment, and reports this information in the suitable time.Also can base station triggers report, can configure for N time.
The deficiency of such scheme is: although there is the UE request, the base station does not have the situation of scheduling.The base station can judge according to the time that UE reports up owing to not receiving SR or not scheduling itself in this case.Thereby determine whether it being up covering problem.And strict being consistent with the base station of this timestamp that just requires UE to report, but do not have at present strict consistent of time of corresponding mechanism base station and UE.
Embodiment
The inventor notices in the invention process: be in the UE of connection status in up, the certain SR resource of UE can be distributed in the base station.And the proprietary SR of this SR for carrying on PUCCH.If UE has upstream data to send and will send the upstream request Resources allocation by SR to the base station when there is no ascending resource.The base station determines whether distribute to this UE resource, and does not receive the base station if the up channel covering is bad, and UE has sent SR, and UE can not be scheduled.The network and do not know that UE sent D-SR if this information does not send to network namely can not found up covering problem.Therefore, will provide in the embodiment of the present invention for this defective and provide technical scheme, and adopt this scheme can mask UE and the inaccurate problem of base station timestamp record.In this scheme, for the UE of connection status, the certain SR resource of UE can be distributed in the base station, and network side can send several times by signal deployment UE and report after D-SR.Report after sending 5 SR such as the network side configuration UE, and record time and the geographical position that these 5 SR send, cell information etc.Also record UE at network side and send SR several times.Like this, if Network records 4 times, and UE reports up 5 times, this explanation is the up problem that is coated with once.If there is problem in the same place of a plurality of UE report, can judge the up problem that is coated with in this place.If in the D-SR of network appointment transmission times, the residential quarter switching has occured at UE, UE can carry up the D-SR relevant information that has occured, and network side also can also can judge whether to exist up covering problem according to this information.If UE has transferred to IDLE (free time) state in the D-SR of network appointment transmission times, UE cancels the situation that reports transmission D-SR, and network side is also removed relevant configuration.Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the specific embodiment of the present invention is described.
