Detailed description of the invention
Below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in the embodiment of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiment of the present invention is carried out clear, complete Describe, it is clear that described embodiment is only a part of embodiment of the present invention rather than whole embodiments wholely.Based on Embodiment in the present invention, the every other embodiment that those skilled in the art are obtained, broadly fall into the scope of protection of the invention.
Refer to accompanying drawing 1, be the WLAN overlapping control method schematic flow sheet of embodiment of the present invention offer, its executive agent Can be the access point (Access Point, AP) in WLAN, mainly include step:
S101, obtains optimum emission parameter, access point when described optimum emission parameter includes obtaining expectation covering performance Launching power and antenna parameter, described expectation covering performance is included in zones of different in overlay area, and to have different signals strong Degree.
In embodiments of the present invention, when optimum emission parameter includes obtaining expectation covering performance access point transmitting power and Antenna parameter etc., and expect covering performance be included in overlay area in zones of different there is different signal intensitys, access point is pressed Launching power and antenna parameter in overlay area during zones of different transmission signal according to these, in these, zones of different receives Actual signal intensity is minimum with the error of received signal strength expected value.Such as, certain during overlay area includes certain office building One layer of Administrative Area, but this layer of Administrative Area is spaced apart different rooms, and what each room may be moved into is different enterprise or same The different departments of one enterprise, so, the signal intensity in these different rooms has different requirement, such as, in certain room Require to receive signal strong, but it is more weak to require to receive signal outside this room.
In order to obtain these optimum emission parameters, the first embodiment is: the access controller being connected with access point (Access Controller, AC) first according to the received signal strength of the sensor feedback in access point overlay area according to Certain optimized algorithm calculates optimum emission parameter, is then configured to access point, access point receive access controller according to Optimized algorithm calculates and is configured to transmitting power and the antenna parameter of this access point.The second embodiment is: access controller In measuring access point and this access point overlay area, several measure the propagation attenuation parameter between point, according to these propagation attenuations Parameter, calculates optimum emission parameter according to optimized algorithm, is then configured to access point, and access point receives access controller Calculate and be configured to transmitting power and the antenna parameter of this access point according to optimized algorithm.
It should be noted that in access point obtains the first embodiment of optimum emission parameter, once overlay area The change of endogenous cause of ill environment, such as, the finishing layout change of overlay area and the accidental movement of access point position etc., cause covering Performance changes, and such as, actual covering performance exceedes certain threshold value with the covering performance preset, then access controller is pressed Recalculating optimum emission parameter according to optimized algorithm, be then configured to access point, access point receives access controller and presses Calculate and be configured to transmitting power and the antenna parameter of this access point according to optimized algorithm.
S102, according to the type of current frame to be sent, uses described optimum emission parameter or calculates according to multiple antenna scheduling Method calculates the emission parameter of gained and sends described current frame to be sent, and the type of described current frame to be sent includes managing frame sum According to frame.
In embodiments of the present invention, the type of frame to be sent includes managing frame and Frame, and wherein, management frame can be nothing Beacon, Probe Request & Response, Authentication, De-of line local area network standard 802.11 definition authentication、Association Request & Response、Re-association Request & Response, Dis-association and Announcement Traffic Indication Message etc. 11 kinds manage frame In any one.
Access point can first determine whether the type of current frame to be sent, such as, judge whether current frame to be sent is management Frame, if judging, current frame to be sent as management frame, then uses the optimum emission parameter of acquisition to send described management frame.Access point is also May determine that whether current frame to be sent is Frame, if judging, described current frame to be sent is Frame, then use acquisition Optimum emission parameter sends described Frame, or, the emission parameter calculating gained according to multiple antenna scheduling algorithm sends institute State Frame.
It should be noted that multi-antenna technology is widely used in current radio communication, when carrying out business data transmission, Access point, according to the channel status of current communications link, is dynamically selected antenna and power, to obtain more preferable laser propagation effect.Nothing The line LAN overwhelming majority is operated in unauthorized open frequency range, and uses simple time division multiplexed scheme, in order to obtain more Big link throughput, the most not to launch power limit, but by multiple antenna scheduling algorithm be dynamically determined transmitting power and Antenna parameter.Owing to the Coverage Control of WLAN is a static process, i.e. to access point in a long time scale Transmitting power and antenna parameter be defined, and multiple antenna scheduling is a dynamic process, i.e. according to different delivery times Transmitting power and the antenna parameter of access point are adjusted by different channels state, in other words, and Coverage Control and multiple antenna scheduling Exist a certain degree of compromise.Therefore, in embodiments of the present invention, access point selects to make according to the type of current frame to be sent The emission parameter calculating gained according further to multiple antenna scheduling algorithm with optimum emission parameter sends, this benefit treated with a certain discrimination It is: for the management frame sent from access point, carried out Coverage Control so that the network key information that management frame carries only exists Can receive in specific region, enhance the safety of network;For the Frame sent from access point, both can use and obtain The optimized parameter that takes sends to carry out Coverage Control, it is possible to use transmitting power that multiple antenna scheduling algorithm is dynamically determined and sky Line parameter sends and does not carry out Coverage Control, and this achieves between Coverage Control and multiple antennas processing gain to a certain extent Compromise, thus obtain enough multiple antenna scheduling flexibility ratios.
Knowable to the WLAN overlapping control method that the invention described above embodiment provides, optimum emission parameter is so that the area of coverage In territory, terminal received signals intensity and the transmitting power of access point and antenna parameter when receiving signal expectation strength error minimum, connect Access point uses optimum emission parameter to send management frame, uses optimum emission parameter or uses according to the calculating of multiple antenna scheduling algorithm The emission parameter of gained sends Frame.Therefore, Coverage Control phase is not carried out with prior art at transmission management frame or Frame Ratio, the WLAN overlapping control method that the embodiment of the present invention provides, both ensure that the quality of terminal received signals in overlay area, again Ensure that the network key information that management frame carries only can receive in specific region, enhance the safety of network, with This treats Frame and the transmission of management frame with a certain discrimination simultaneously, achieves Coverage Control to a certain extent and increases with multiple antennas process Trading off between benefit, thus obtain enough multiple antenna scheduling flexibility ratios.
Refer to accompanying drawing 2, be the emission parameter optimization method schematic flow sheet of embodiment of the present invention offer, its executive agent It can be the access controller (Access Controller, AC) in WLAN.AC is connected with one or more AP, real The now management to AP.Such as, calculate optimum emission parameter for each AP and be configured to each AP so that each AP launches ginseng according to optimum Number sends management frame or Frame etc..The emission parameter optimization method of accompanying drawing 2 example mainly includes step:
S201, if the performance parameter of dry measure point in obtaining overlay area, the performance parameter of described measurement point includes described Measure the propagation attenuation parameter between intensity or described measurement point and the access point of the signal that point receives.
As first embodiment of the invention, in measuring the access point overlay area that point can be WLAN, deploy M The position of individual sensor, wherein, M is greater than the integer of 1.The initial stage is set up, according to the region of required covering at WLAN The number of the demand of size, environment, coverage strength and capacity required access point according to a preliminary estimate and position.Then, believe according to difference Number coverage strength demand divides different regions, typical division methods be region is divided into inside WLAN, edge With outside three regions.The sensor of some (such as, M) is disposed, the position choosing between sensor in zones of different Select the position that communication environments is representative in certain region, and the communication environments dependency of different sensors present position should The lowest.Access controller is connected with access point, receives the received signal strength of M measurement point of M sensor feedback Value.
As second embodiment of the invention, it is also possible to set up the initial stage at WLAN, according to the region of required covering The number of the demand of size, environment, coverage strength and capacity required access point according to a preliminary estimate and position.Then according to unlike signal Coverage strength demand divides different regions, determines that M is typically measured a little, measure point and ownership in different regions Propagation attenuation parameter between access point.Usually, the selection principle measuring point is chosen in same communication environments as far as possible Heart point.
S202, if according to the performance parameter of dry measure point in overlay area, calculates optimum emission parameter, described optimum transmitting Parameter includes transmitting power and the antenna parameter obtaining access point when expecting covering performance, and described expectation covering performance includes expectation In overlay area, zones of different has different signal intensitys.
If corresponding to the performance parameter first embodiment of dry measure point in acquisition overlay area in step S201, as this If bright according to the performance parameter of dry measure point in overlay area, calculate an embodiment of optimum emission parameter, access control point Can calculate according to optimized algorithm make certain measurement in overlay area according to described M the received signal strength value measuring point The transmitting power of access point and antenna parameter when the actual received signal strength of point and reception signal expectation strength error minimum.Specifically Ground, it is assumed that having N number of access point in WLAN and deploy M sensor, access controller is connected with all of access point, And transmitting power and the antenna parameter of access point can be controlled;Access point configuration multiple antennas, it is launched direction controlling and can pass through Multiple scannings being differently directed the selection of wave beam, the synthesis wave beam of smart antenna or simple beam realize.Sensor measurement connects Broadcast frame (one of the management frame) signal intensity that access point sends, and feed back to access controller, sensor is placed on certain bits Put, the received signal strength of the measured value reflection region of the broadcast frame signal intensity of its feedback.In access controller side, When calculating optimum emission parameter, can be that each sensor location sets a received signal strength expected value {targeti, i=1,2 ..., M}, the terminal received signals intensity expectation of this received signal strength expected value namely this position Value.The cost function of defined formula (1):
cos t = Σ i = 1 M | w i · rcv i - w i · t arg et i t arg et i | 2 . ... ... ... ... ... formula (1)
Wherein, wiFor the weighted value of i-th sensor, rcviReceived signal strength for i-th sensor current feedback Measured value.By adjusting the weighted value of certain sensor, the importance of the covering performance of this sensor position can be adjusted, Because Coverage Control is a complicated process, the actual coverage strength of zones of different there may be compromise, is weighted by adjustment Value can better ensure that the covering performance of some important area.
Use cost letter defined in the measured value computing formula (1) of the received signal strength that current all the sensors feeds back Numerical value, it can be estimated that when access point sends signal with current transmitting power and transmission parameter, terminal received signals in overlay area Error between intensity and received signal strength expected value.Access controller is according to certain optimized algorithm, calculation cost function The minima of cost, calculates shown in public equation below (2):
min P , param { cos t } , rcv = f ( P , param ) . ... ... ... ... ... ... ... formula (2)
Wherein, P is the transmitting power of access point, and param is the antenna parameter of access point, and rcv is that received signal strength is vowed Amount, comprises the measured value of the received signal strength of all the sensors feedback.The optimized algorithm root that formula (1) and formula (2) represent Determining that Coverage Control has restrained according to the value of this cost function, or continue next round iterative process, its target is Littleization cost function cost, in now corresponding transmitting power P and antenna parameter param are just so that overlay area, certain is measured The actual received signal strength of point and the transmitting power of access point and antenna parameter during received signal strength expected value error minimum.
There is linear relationship with the received signal strength of certain position in switch-in point transmitting power, thus be accordingly used in linear relationship Optimized algorithm can serve as receiving the optimized algorithm on controller, all of linear programming method (such as, Nelder-Mead Algorithm) can serve as optimized algorithm, some heuristic methods (such as, genetic algorithm) can also be as optimized algorithm.Essence On, optimized algorithm defines an iterative process, calculates current iteration knot according to previous round iteration result and cost function thereof Really, flow process defined in different optimized algorithms is not quite similar, but inherently belongs to a kind of search procedure.At this programme In, an iteration of optimized algorithm produces the new transmitting power of access point one and antenna parameter, and access point uses this new sending out Penetrating power and antenna parameter and send broadcast frame, the signal intensity of its present position of sensor measurement also feeds back to access controller. Error between optimized algorithm assessment measured value and expected value that access controller represents according to formula (1) and formula (2) (namely Terminal received signals intensity and received signal strength expected value error in overlay area), produce new transmitting power and antenna ginseng Number, such loop iteration, until specific optimal conditions meets.So-called specific optimal conditions, by the strategy of the process of optimization Determining, conventional has: reach to preset maximum iteration time, cost function value convergence steadily or reaches the default control time, etc..
In the above-described embodiments, if covering performance changes in overlay area, then access controller is according to optimized algorithm Recalculate optimum emission parameter, and be configured to access point.Specifically, optimized algorithm is used when access point according to access controller After the emission parameter calculated sends signal, network enters the operation phase, provides business datum to pass for the terminal in overlay area Send.But, in the change of environment may cause access point overlay area, covering performance changes, such as, and the dress of overlay area Repair the accidental movement of layout change and/or access point position, etc..In embodiments of the present invention, after network enters the operation phase System enters and covers the supervision stage, i.e. access controller is assessed currently by the measured value receiving signal of sensor feedback Covering performance, when actual covering performance, relative to default covering performance deviation, (actual received signal strength is strong with reception signal The error of degree expected value) exceed pre-determined threshold εcTime, start Coverage Control, recalculate transmitting power and the antenna ginseng of access point Number.Cover the adjustment to switch-in point transmitting power and antenna parameter of the supervision stage with the coverage optimization and control stage to access point transmitting The difference of the calculating of power and antenna parameter is, the adjustment covering the supervision stage is to be calculated in the coverage optimization and control stage Launch the fine setting made on power and antenna parameter rather than as the extensive search in coverage optimization and control stage.It is worth note Meaning, is covering the supervision stage, and the feedback cycle of measuring of sensor is far longer than the survey of coverage optimization and control stage sensor Amount feedback cycle because cover the supervision stage covering performance change less, and cross frequently measure feedback data will waste nothing The transmission bandwidth of line LAN.
In order to determine thresholding εc, need to limit, really according to the covering performance patient error of institute or minimum vertex-covering performance Determine regional and can tolerate the error of covering performance, then can calculate acquisition thresholding ε according to formula (3)c
ϵ c = Σ i = 1 N | w ~ i · δ i t arg et i | 2 . ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... formula (3)
Wherein, it is the group number that sensor is divided into by N, such as, the sensor of same area is classified as same group, δiIt is The received signal strength deviation that i group sensor present position allows,For corresponding weighted value;targetiFor corresponding average Target strength, as M=N, each sensor is one group.
If corresponding to performance parameter second embodiment of dry measure point in acquisition overlay area in step S201, as this If bright according to the performance parameter of dry measure point in overlay area, calculate another embodiment of optimum emission parameter, access control point The propagation attenuation parameter between point can be measured according to described access point and M, calculate according to optimized algorithm and make overlay area In certain measures the actual received signal strength of point and the transmitting power of access point during reception signal expectation strength error minimum and sky Line parameter.Specifically, it is assumed that measure M the propagation attenuation parameter { pl measuring point in certain access point overlay areai, i=1, 2 ..., M}, is { target at this M the expectation coverage strength measured on pointi, i=1,2 ..., M}, then the transmitting merit of access point Rate and antenna parameter arrange the actual received signal strength on all measurement points under it should be made to cover and received signal strength phase The global error of prestige value is minimum, and concrete computational methods depend on the antenna type with access point.To synthesize the smart antenna of wave beam As a example by array, if N number of omnidirectional array element shown by antenna array, then in overlay area, Coverage Control problem is converted into and determines N × 1 dimension Smart antenna weight vector, makes error minimize defined in formula (4), i.e. optimized design problem described by formula (5).
error = Σ i = 1 M | w H · v i · pl i · P - t arg et i | 2 . ... ... ... ... ... formula (4)
min w { error } . ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... formula (5)
Wherein, vector wHFor the weight coefficient of aerial array, vector viFor the direction vector of access point to ith measurement point, P is the peak power of transmitter.Weight vectors w obtained by solution formula (5)HI.e. can determine that this access point transmitting power and Antenna parameter.
The adjustment parameter of dissimilar antenna is different, such as, the adjustable parameter of multi-beam switched system be beam selection and Beam power.But the adjustment target of dissimilar antenna is similar with the adjustment target of above-mentioned smart antenna, is all and minimizes reality Global error between border received signal strength and received signal strength expected value.
Refer to accompanying drawing 3, be the WLAN Coverage Control apparatus structure schematic diagram of embodiment of the present invention offer.For the ease of saying Bright, illustrate only the part relevant to the embodiment of the present invention.The WLAN Coverage Control device of accompanying drawing 3 example can be wireless office Access point (Access Point, AP) in the net of territory, it includes acquisition module 301 and sending module 302, wherein:
