Background technique
Multiple types e-learning quality brings deployment and managerial difficulty to operator, for example comes from the angle of 3GPP It sees, arrives wideband code division from global system for mobile communications (Global System for Mobile, Communications, GSM) Multiple access (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access, WCDMA) arrives long term evolution (Long Term again Evolution, LTE), an operator will run three simultaneously and throw the net network, how to be managed and safeguard, network and network it is mutual Between relationship how, which type of business resides in where throws the net on network, variety of problems has to be solved.In this case, Single access net (Single Radio Access Network, SingleRAN) is come into being.Single RAN passes through unification R&M management, unified wireless resource management, the optimization of unified network planning system, unified transmission resource management, to support The fusion and evolution of different technologies standard.It implements i.e. in such a way that the access network node of multiple types concentrates in together, That is Multi-Mode Base Station, the evolved NodeB of eNB() and NB and base transceiver station (Base Transceiver Station, BTS) Co-sited.
In universal mobile telecommunications service (the Universal Mobile Telecommunications of Single RAN System, UMTS) and LTE coexistence scenario under, be total to overlay area in UMTS and LTE, between UMTS and LTE exist based on covering or The switching of person's load, wherein the network handover routines of UMTS to LTE are as shown in Figure 1, include following several steps:
(1) user equipment (User Equipment, UE) UMTS serving cell report isosystem measurement report to source without Line network controller (Radio Network Controller, RNC);
(2) source RNC sends switching request to target eNB by UMTS and LTE core network node;
(3) target eNB carries out related resource preparation after receiving switching request and passes through LTE and UMTS core net node to source RNC sends handover request ack message;
(4) source RNC sends switching command to UE;
(5) UE initiates random access to target LTE cell according to the resource allocation in switching command;
(6) after UE is successfully accessed target LTE cell, handoff completion message is sent to target eNB, then carries out core net again The update of routing.
Since in LTE system, the uplink signal of different UE wants time unifying when reaching eNodeB, to guarantee uplink between UE The orthogonality of signal, to help to eliminate the interference in cell.Signal has delay in space propagation, if UE is being called Period is mobile to the direction far from base station, then the signal issued from base station will " increasingly slower " arrival UE, at the same time, UE's Signal also can " increasingly later " arrival base station, postpone the too long signal and base station that will lead to UE that base station receives on this time slot The time slot for receiving next other UE signals is overlapped, causes intersymbol interference.The time unifying of uplink is logical in LTE system It crosses in the sending side UE application time lead (Timing Advance, TA) Lai Shixian, the main function of TA is to eliminate Different propagation delay time between UE, UE adjust sending time according to TA when carrying out uplink transmission.
