Background of invention
In order to use and multiplexing radio frequency frequency spectrum the biglyyest, radio communications system adopts multiple scheme to allow simultaneously or the approaching accessing communication resource side by side of a plurality of users.For example, in cell phone system, the air interface (air interface) that a lot of phone users are allowed to by a plurality of user captures of multiple permission visits wire communication resource (being public switched telephone network (PSTN)).
A multiple access (rdma) scheme can be defined as sending or time of reception by distributing, channel frequency, and channel width, chnnel coding, a communication resource is shared in the combination of transmission or receiving position or the like, for example one of the radio frequency frequency spectrum group of rule.The example of known multiple access (rdma) scheme comprises: AMPS (Advanced Mobile Phone System), NAMPS (arrowband AMPS), TACS (omnidirectional is pressed into network communication system), GSM (global system for mobile communications), TDMA (time division multiple access) and CDMA (code division multiple access).These multiple access (rdma) schemes much in telecommunications industry association of cellular telecommunication industrial association (CTLA) (TIA), or in the industrial standard announced of other standard entity good description is arranged.One of them example is the standard I S-95 of CDMA cellular communication system.
Along with coming into operation of newer multiple access (rdma) scheme, the overlay area of new multiaccess system does not generally have system big of old different multiple access (rdma) schemes of the use of having set up.Therefore, in order to offer more wide communication service area of user with new multiple access (rdma) scheme, having developed the dual-mode subscriber unit makes the user can have the service of new multiaccess system, and when they roam into outside the area of coverage of newer multiaccess system, subscriber unit can with one older or optionally multiaccess system communicate.
Referring now to Fig. 1,, shows the covering of communication system and use a typical relation between the covering of communication system of second multiple access (rdma) scheme with first multiple access (rdma) scheme.Specifically, the honeycomb area coverage 20 of Fig. 1 illustrates the cellular system of an employing code division multiple access (CDMA) scheme, illustrates with hexagonal cell 22, for convenience of explanation, represents an optional multiple access (MA) scheme with circular sub-district 24.Zone that cdma cellular 22 covers and optional MA are illustrated with thick line by limit 26 with the border between the zone of optional sub-district 24 coverings.
When user 28 is mobile between CDMA sub-district 22, the handover between 30 guidances of cdma base station controller or the management CDMA sub-district 22.Similarly, when user 28 was mobile between optional MA sub-district 24, optional MA base station controller 32 instructed or manages handover between the optional MA sub-district 24.A handover is a processing in the cellular communication system, by Traffic Channel of this processing from switching to and another cell communication with a cell communication.
The problem to be solved in the present invention appears when the communication system that adopts a MA wants that a user is handed over to the communication system that adopts the 2nd MA.This problem occurs when user 28 passes boundary line 26 and moves to an optional MA sub-district 24 from CDMA sub-district 22 in Fig. 1.This problem may not take place under user 28 does not pass the situation of boundary line 26 yet, when a for example MA communication system is want user 28 is handed in the optional MA sub-district 24 that a MA communication system covers.
In the prior art, when a for example MA is CDMA, pilot beacon (pilot beacon) is used to the edge (being boundary line 26) of warning cdma base station controller 30 users 28 just covering near CDMA.Pilot beacon 34 used herein is definition or general by transmitting that parts among the MA receive in a MA, and wherein this MA is the source of handover.For example, when CDMA was source MA, pilot beacon 34 was pilot channel beacons, and it makes outside the boundary line 26 or looks like it is another CDMA sub-district 22 near the optional MA sub-district 24 of boundary line 26.This means user 28 according to the rule of CDMAIS-95 appearance and intensity, make it to arrange a handover with optional MA base station controller 32 by the base station controller communication link between MA 36 to cdma base station controller 30 report pilot beacons 34.Detailed description is please granted Weaver referring on January 14th, 1997, and Jr. waits people's 5,594,718 the United States Patent (USP) of being numbered.
Pilot beacon 34 is placed on a lot of problems in the sub-district near the boundary line outside the boundary line 26.The first, it is very expensive, and each pilot beacon 34 needs one and is connected to the reflector that the suitable construction antenna is installed.
The second, it has increased the complexity of communication system.The CDMA pilot beacon must identify synchronously and with unique time migration with the other parts of system.Power level must correctly be set.
The 3rd, must rent or buy additional antenna website.Sometimes, for the space of the usefulness that on competitor's tower, obtains to fix up an aerial wire, identify that such Site Protocol may need to negotiate with the cellular system competitor.
The 4th, pilot beacon may increase the intrinsic noise level of the system that is runed by another grantee on same radio band.
The 5th, by first or the pilot beacon measured of source MA communication system differ and show the communication quality of the radio frequency link that uses the 2nd MA communication system surely well.That is to say that the signal quality of (collocated) AMPS sub-district emission that is set together by and the CDMA pilot beacon that measures at customer location is the AMPS signal quality of corresponding same customer location accurately; The AMPS signal may be decayed and CDMA radio frequency beacon is unattenuated.This may owing to the CDMA pilot beacon a frequency and the propagation differences of AMPS signal on another frequency causes.
Another optional method that uses pilot beacon to carry out handover between different MA systems is the handover of any existing knowledge of the Traffic Channel of handover-do not need the 2nd MA communication system blindly.This possibility is easy to cause call drop.And when having a plurality of sub-districts can handle this Traffic Channel in the 2nd MA communication system, there is not better Intelligence Selection to select a handover candidate cells preferably.

Then, subscriber unit is measured the signal characteristic from a signal of optional multiple access communication system, shown in piece among the figure 204.This measurement can realize by optional MA transmitter-receiver with in the subscriber unit shown in Figure 3, perhaps realize with one in the subscriber unit shown in the example of Fig. 2 optional MA measuring circuit.Another method of measuring optional MA signal is to use current MA receiver, and as shown in Figure 4, wherein the CDMA receiver can be reset and put to measure optional MA, as a signal among the AMPS.
After measuring optional MA signal, subscriber unit is measured the signal characteristic from a signal of current MA communication system alternatively, shown in piece 206.In some communication systems, this step is optionally because the judgement of the signal characteristic of the signal of current MA communication system and handover is irrelevant.But, have some systems may be designed to the signal characteristic of the signal of the signal characteristic of signal of more optional MA and current MA.
After carrying out the appropriate signal measurement, subscriber unit is reported these signal characteristic measurement results to base station controller, shown in piece 208.The standard of report signal pattern measurement can be consulted in the initialization procedure in the piece 202.Some are only measured when it surpasses a specific threshold value and are just reported wherein do not have the signal characteristic report to be understood that measured value is lower than this threshold value.
If note will not needing the step of piece 208 when system is designed to allow the user determine when whither to carry out handover, the user may require handover rather than report signal measured value in this case.
After current MA base station controller has been reported all signal characteristic measurement results, this processing procedure determines whether attempt to carry out handover to optional MA communication system, shown in piece 210.As not carrying out handover for a certain reason, this processing procedure is returned piece 204 update signal measurement results circularly.If system determines to carry out the handover from current MA communication system to optional MA communication system, this processing procedure determines then whether optional MA system can receive this customer service, shown in piece 212.
If optional system can not accept this customer service, this processing procedure is returned piece 204 circularly, upgrades measurement result.If optional MA communication system can be accepted customer service, this processing procedure is coordinated the handover with optional MA communication system, shown in piece 204.This step can be realized by the communication between current MA base station controller that is undertaken by base station controller communication link 36 (see figure 1)s between MA and the optional MA base station controller.The coordination of handover can comprise the purpose frequency of a channel in some parameters such as the optional MA communication system and the concrete time that handover takes place.
Coordinated after the handover, this processing procedure is finished the user's handover from current MA communication system to optional MA communication system, shown in piece 216.Because with the handover between the sub-district of cellular communication system arbitrarily, the handover between the communication system with different MA should carry out to such an extent that make user traffic channel do not interrupted inadequately very soon.
The processing of finishing then from communication system with a MA to the handover of the communication system with the 2nd MA finishes at piece 208.
