The method includes steps: when executing other RRC procedure except soft switching, RNC receives measurement report of requesting soft switching from terminal device; RNC determines whether terminal device supports other RRC procedure and soft switching procedure concurrently; if yes, in executing other RRC procedure, RNC starts soft switching procedure; otherwise, RNC refuses executing soft switching procedure when other RRC procedure is executing. The invention also discloses a radio network controller and terminal device.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to communication technical field, relate in particular to a kind of method and device that shortens soft switch-over time delay.
Background technology
Soft switch-over time delay is major issue in the WCDMA system, and the long meeting of soft switch-over time delay causes switching untimely and call drop.Terminal equipment (UE) requires to carry out soft handover by reporting measurement reports, the soft handover request may appear at a plurality of signaling links, RB in the link that for example continues sets up, during the safe mode, during perhaps RB reshuffles, physical channel is reshuffled or transmission channel reshuffles.
Shown in Figure 1A, a typical handshaking procedure is as follows:
1, the up process that direct transfers: comprise that radio network controller (RNC) begins to accept first PDU of up direct-sending message, to last PDU that collects this up direct-sending message.
2, authentication process: comprise that RNC receives the authentication request of core net, RNC sends authentication request and gives user terminal (UE), and UE responds authentication request and finishes message to RNC, and RNC responds authentication request and finishes message to core net.Authentication request message is a direct-sending message at RNC.
3, ciphering process: comprise that RNC receives the safe mode command of core net, RNC sends safe mode command and gives UE, and UE responds safe mode command and finishes message to RNC, and RNC responds safe mode and finishes message to core net.
4, radio bearer (RB) is set up process: comprise that RNC receives RAB (RAB) the assignment request of core net, RNC finishes the network side resource bid, sends RB and sets up message to UE, after UE finishes RB foundation, sends RB foundation and finishes message to RNC.
5, the descending process that direct transfers: comprise that RNC sends descending direct-sending message to UE, receive that to RNC UE controls ACK that (RLC) layer is responded at Radio Link, confirm the process that the whole acceptance of direct-sending message finish.
RB reshuffles/and transmission channel reshuffles/and the physical channel reconfiguration course is shown in Figure 1B.Described RB reshuffles/and transmission channel reshuffles/and the physical channel reconfiguration course comprises: and RNC determines reconfiguration course, RNC finishes RB and reshuffles/and transmission channel reshuffles/the physical channel reconfiguration message issues, receive that the RB of UE reshuffles/transmission channel reshuffles/physical channel reshuffles and finishes message.
In soft handover area, occur the probability of soft switching process.The soft handover type has: increase Radio Link, deletion Radio Link, replace Radio Link.The soft switching process of follow-up indication comprises that RNC receives the measurement report that UE reports, and RNC finishes activating set updating and issues, and receives that the activating set updating of UE is finished message.
Shown in Fig. 1 C, be that example illustrates typical soft switching process to increase Radio Link:
1, according to the resource behaviour in service, the SRNC decision is set up a wireless links in the new sub-district of DRNC, sets up message RADIO LINK SETUP so send the RNSAP Radio Link to DRNC, the application Radio Resource.If this is article one Radio Link between DRNC and the UE, also should set up a signaling and connect at the Iur interface, be used to carry the RNSAP signaling relevant with this UE.
2, DRNC judgement SRNC request resource can be used, and sends NBAP agreement Radio Link to target NodeB and sets up request message RADIO LINK SETUP REQUEST, and NodeB starts up reception.
3, after NodeB becomes distribution of work SRNC requested resource, send the NBAP Radio Link to DRNC and set up response message RADIO LINK SETUP RESPONSE, report allocation result.
4, SRNC adopts the ALCAP agreement to initiate the Iub transmission bearer and sets up process.
5, DRNC sends the RNSAP Radio Link to SRNC and sets up response message RADIO LINKSETUP RESPONSE.
6, SRNC adopts the ALCAP agreement to initiate the Iur transmission bearer and sets up process.
7, SRNC sends RRC active set updating message (Radio Link increase) ACTIVE SET UPDATE (Radio Link Addition) by the DCCH channel to UE, comprises the RL information that needs increase in the message.
8, UE increases corresponding RL information in active set, returns the renewal of RRC active set to SRNC and finishes message ACTIVE SET UPDATE COMPLETE.The soft switching process that Radio Link increases finishes.
In the prior art, RNC does not support the soft handover during soft RB sets up process, shown in Fig. 2 A: RNC receives measurement report, but find the current RAB assignment process of carrying out, RNC buffer memory measurement report after wait RAB assignment process finishes, begins to handle measurement report, carry out soft handoff procedure, be equivalent to soft handover and be delayed.
For ciphering process, same RNC is not supported in the soft handover during the ciphering process, and the buffer memory measurement report causes soft switch-over time delay to increase.RB between RNC and the UE among the above-mentioned figure is set up message replace with safe mode command, RB sets up and to finish message and replace with safe mode command and finish message; RAB assignment message between RNC and the CN is replaced with safe mode command, and RAB assignment response replaces with safe mode command and finishes the flow chart that message can represent not support during the safe mode soft handover.
Except RB sets up, the ciphering process, RNC reshuffles at RB, transmission channel is reshuffled or physical channel is not supported soft handover during reshuffling flow process yet, causes soft switch-over time delay to increase equally.
In the prior art, UE does not support the soft handoff procedure during RB sets up process, shown in Fig. 2 B: UE receives activating set updating (ACTIVE SET UPDATE) message, and UE detects and exists RB to set up process, and UE responds activating set updating failure (ACTIVE SET UPDATE FAILURE) message.
Equally, UE receives ACTIVE SET UPDATE message, UE detect exist safe mode command process, RB to reshuffle, physical channel is reshuffled or the transmission channel reconfiguration course, UE responds ACTIVESET UPDATE FAILURE.
The typical time delay magnitude of RAB process is about 1 second.In handshaking procedure, if find to have ongoing RAB assignment or safe mode command process when RNC prepares to begin to carry out soft handover, RNC can postpone the processing soft handoff procedure, after wait RAB process or safe mode command are finished, just begins soft handoff procedure.Because soft switch-over time delay can increase by 0 to 1 second, make a call at switching zone customer, may cause call drop because of switching untimely.
In a word, for prior art,, may cause soft switch-over time delay to increase and interrupting service because RNC does not support this process and soft switching process to walk abreast when other RRC processes of carrying out except that soft handover.
Summary of the invention
The invention provides a kind of soft method and device of cutting time delay that shorten, solving in the prior art, thereby cause the soft switch-over time delay increase and the problem of interrupting service because of RNC does not support this process and soft switching process to walk abreast when other RRC processes of carrying out except that soft handover.

Embodiment
In order to shorten soft switch-over time delay, the present invention is when RNC carries out other Radio Resources except that soft handover and controls the measurement report that receives the request soft handover that terminal equipment reports in (RRC) processes, further judge whether terminal supports described other Radio Resource control procedures and soft switching process executed in parallel, if support, RNC then issues activating set updating message with the parallel soft switching process that carries out in carrying out described other RRC processes, if terminal is not supported, then refuse in carrying out described other RRC processes, to carry out soft switching process.
Other Radio Resource control procedures except that soft handover comprise: the up process that direct transfers, authentication process, ciphering process (interacting message in the ciphering process has safe mode command, and safe mode command is finished message), the descending process that direct transfers, radio bearer (RB) are set up process, RB reconfiguration course, transmission channel reconfiguration course and physical channel reconfiguration course.
RNC can according to whether supporting of reporting of terminal equipment except that switching other RRC processes and the ability information of soft switching process executed in parallel carry out described judgement.Terminal equipment can when RRC sets up process and finishes or RRC sets up in the process or in the handshaking procedure or in the link maintenance process, report described ability information to RNC.On give the correct time and can utilize any message carrying capacity information that sends to RNC in these processes, also can increase new message carrying capacity information.For example, UE reports RNC with ability information when RRC sets up in the process or finishes, can inform whether RNC has support and the parallel ability of soft switching process by any message carrying capacity information in this process, as, UE carries described ability information by RRC connection setup complete message (RRC CONNECTION SETUP COMPLETE message) and gives RNC.
In the ability information that UE reports, each other RRC process except that soft handover of executed in parallel of whether supporting can be described respectively, the ability cell that carries in the message that reports as UE is as follows:
| Cell (IE) | Whether support with soft handover parallel |
| RB sets up | Y/N |
| Encrypt | Y/N |
| Authentication | Y/N |
| Descending direct transferring | Y/N |
| Up direct transferring | Y/N |
| RB reshuffles | Y/N |
| Transmission channel is reshuffled | Y/N |
| The physical channel reconfiguration course | Y/N |
Wherein: Y expresses support for, N or do not support, but can only be one of them.
In the ability information that UE reports, also can unify to describe and whether support whole described other Radio Resource control procedures and soft handover executed in parallel, the ability cell that carries in the message that reports as UE is as follows:.
| Cell (IE) | Whether support with soft handover parallel |
| RB foundation, encryption, authentication, descendingly direct transfer, uply direct transfer, main RRC process such as RB reshuffles, transmission channel is reshuffled, physical channel is reshuffled | Y/N |
Except aforesaid way, RNC can carry out described judgement according to the UE version information of network side.The mode that reports version information identical with the mode of reporting ability information (as, UE can pass through the described version information of RRCCONNECTION SETUP COMPLETE information reporting).For example: the terminal equipment (travelling carriage) that regulation R7 reaches with version all needs support process parallel, if it is R7 or above version that the version information that RNC reports according to UE is determined current UE, determine that then UE supports described other RRC processes and soft handover executed in parallel, if the version information that RNC reports according to UE is determined current UE (as being R6, R5, R4 or R99 version) below the R7 version, determine that then UE does not support other RRC processes and soft handover executed in parallel (regulation for version is not limited to this, can determine according to practical situations).
Consult shown in Figure 3ly, UE is as follows by the flow process that RRC sets up process reporting ability information:
Step 1, UE send RRC connection request message RRC CONNECTIONREQUEST to RNC.
Step 2, RNC issue the RRC connection to UE and set up message RRC CONNECTION SETUP.
Step 3, RRC set up and finish, and UE reports RRC connection setup complete message RRCCONNECTION SETUP COMPLETE, and carries the ability information whether UE supports executed in parallel soft switching process and other RRC processes in this message.
After step 4, RNC receive described RRC CONNECTION SETUP COMPLETE message, therefrom extract ability information and the preservation of UE.
Set up process by RRC and report the flow process of version information and in like manner above-mentioned, repeat no more.
Consult shown in Fig. 4 A, in setting up the RB process, the handling process when RNC receives the soft handover request and determines UE support executed in parallel soft handover is as follows:
Step 1, RNC issue RB to UE and set up order.
Step 2, UE send the measurement report of request soft handover to RNC.
Step 3, RNC detect that RB sets up that process is not finished as yet and determine that according to the ability information (or copyright information) that UE reports this UE supports that RB sets up process and soft switching process executed in parallel.
Step 4, RNC set up process according to RB and can successfully prepare soft handover, finish relevant resource preparation.
Step 5, RNC issue activating set updating (ACTIVE SET UPDATE) message to UE, begin parallel flow process.
Step 6, UE carry out activating set updating, and finish message to RNC transmission activating set updating after renewal is finished.
Step 7, UE finish RB foundation back to RNC transmission RB foundation response.
UE carry out that RB foundation, encryption, RB are reshuffled, transmission channel is reshuffled or the physical channel reconfiguration course in detect and soft switching process occurred, a kind of preferable mode is to utilize free time in this process to finish soft switching process (because carry out the time of soft switching process shorter); Another kind of mode is, cancellation or current RB foundation, encryption, the RB that carries out of buffer memory reshuffles, transmission channel is reshuffled or physical channel is reshuffled flow process (cancellation is meant the task that cancellation breath has begun, promptly return back to and do not begin this status of processes), preferentially carry out soft switching process, and after soft handover is finished, continue the flow process of aforementioned buffer memory.
Terminal equipment can report activating set updating to finish message after finishing soft switching process immediately, the activating set updating that also can buffer memory need report is finished message, and reshuffle at current RB foundation, encryption, the RB that carries out, transmission channel is reshuffled or the physical channel reconfiguration course reports the activating set updating of buffer memory to finish message after finishing.
For reshuffle at RB at RNC, physical channel is reshuffled, ciphering process, transmission channel are reshuffled etc. receive the measurement report of request soft handover and determine that UE supports the executed in parallel soft switching process in the process after, the parallel equally activating set updating message that issues of RNC, its processing procedure and in like manner above-mentioned repeats no more.
Consult shown in Fig. 4 B, in setting up the RB process, when RNC received the soft handover request and determines that UE does not support the executed in parallel soft handover, a kind of preferable processing mode was as follows:
Step 20, RNC issue RB to UE and set up order.
Step 21, UE send the measurement report of request soft handover to RNC.
Step 22, RNC detect RB and set up that process is not finished as yet and determine that according to the ability information (or copyright information) that UE reports this UE does not support RB to set up process and soft switching process executed in parallel.
Step 23, RNC refusal are set up process at RB and are carried out soft handover, buffer memory measurement report.
Step 24, UE send RB to RNC and set up response after finishing RB foundation.
Step 25, RNC issue activating set updating (ACTIVE SETUPDATE) message according to the measurement report of buffer memory to UE, begin parallel flow process.
Step 26, UE carry out activating set updating, and finish message to RNC transmission activating set updating after renewal is finished.
During do not carrying out soft handover behind the RNC buffer memory measurement report,, then utilize new measurement report to cover the measurement report of original buffer memory if receive the measurement report of terminal equipment again.
Certainly, in other RRC processes except that switching, when RNC receives the soft handover request and determines that UE does not support the executed in parallel soft handover, also can directly abandon the measurement report of request soft handover, trigger soft switching process by the measurement report of finishing after described other RRC processes that receives.
Encrypt with the parallel process of soft handover in, UE sends safe mode command and finishes after (securitycommand complete) message, avoids one of in the following ways the potential call drop that brings after parallel:
(1) UE finishes in safe mode command in (security command complete) message and notifies RNC, and N the protocol Data Unit (PDU) of finishing message in up safe mode command encrypted afterwards and come into force.
Shown in Fig. 5 A, come into force by encrypting behind N PDU of postponement, can allow activating set updating finish message is non-encrypted mode (promptly Zhi Hou message is only encrypting messages).
(2) RNC is provided with user data cell (SDU) and submits for order, and caching function to SDU is provided.
RNC sends safe mode command (security command) afterwards, RNC may receive that a lot of non-security mode orders finish the SDU of type, RNC handles according to unencrypted mode these SDU, be that it judges whether to finish type of message for safe mode command, finish message if not safe mode command, RNC is with regard to this SDU of buffer memory, after RNC has received that safe mode command is finished the SDU of message, get the SN sequence number that the cicada uplink UE begins to encrypt, just the up signaling SDU of buffer memory before is decrypted, the SDU that this mechanism can avoid the UE side to send is abandoned by RNC and causes call drop.
Shown in Fig. 5 B, a kind of preferable mode is that before buffer memory SDU, at first the SDU of this up RRC is resolved in trial, if after resolving formation SDU, can discern this RRC type of message and content, with regard to this RRC message of normal process, does not make buffer memory; Otherwise, with regard to the involved data cell of this SDU of buffer memory.That is, the data cell behind the sequence number that begins to encrypt is handled according to manner of decryption, and the data cached unit of sequence number is handled according to non-deciphering before encrypting.When RNC resolves up SDU, according to uplink user data unit unencryption with do not carry out integrity protection, unencryption and carried out integrity protection, encrypt and do not carry out integrity protection or encrypted and carried out the capable parsing of integrity protection.
(3) UE is receiving after safe mode command finishes the RLC ACK of (security command complete) message (expression RNC packed up safe mode command finish whole PDU that security commandcomplete disappears), just send activating set updating and finish message, can avoid up activating set updating to finish message this moment and go out active, its flow process is shown in Fig. 5 C.UE other up RRC message during this period, measurement report message for example all need just send to RNC receiving after safe mode command finishes the RLC ACK message of message, the call drop that the RNC deciphering failure that can avoid like this occurring causes.
Encrypt with the parallel process of soft handover in, RNC sends after the safe mode command security command message, avoids one of in the following way the potential call drop that brings after parallel:
(1) RNC notifies UE in safe mode command security command message, and RNC can allow N the PDU that is encrypted in descending safe mode command security command message come into force afterwards.Shown in Fig. 5 D.
(2) RNC is provided with SDU for submitting in proper order, and UE provides the caching function to SDU.
UE continue the beginning and sent initial direct-sending message after, UE may receive the SDU of a lot of non-security mode orders (security command) type, UE handles according to unencrypted mode these SDU, promptly, judge whether type of message belongs to the type of message of safe mode command, if not Security Mode Command message, this SDU of UE buffer memory, after UE has received safe mode command SDU, get the SN sequence number that the descending RNC of cicada begins to encrypt, just the downlink signaling SDU of buffer memory before is decrypted, the SDU that this mechanism can avoid the RNC side to send is abandoned by UE and causes call drop.
Shown in Fig. 5 E, a kind of preferable mode is that before buffer memory SDU, at first this descending SDU is resolved in trial, if after resolving formation SDU, can discern this RRC type of message and content, with regard to this RRC message of normal process, does not make buffer memory; Otherwise, with regard to the involved data cell of this SDU of buffer memory.That is, the data cell behind the sequence number that begins to encrypt is handled according to manner of decryption, and the data cached unit of sequence number is handled according to non-deciphering before encrypting.Terminal equipment is when attempt resolving descending SDU, according to down user data unit unencryption with do not carry out integrity protection, unencryption and carried out integrity protection, encrypt and do not carry out integrity protection or encrypted and carried out integrity protection and resolved.
