Description

Method for offering base station manager and mobile subscriber location information of base transceiver sation}

The present invention relates to a Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) mobile communication system, such as a Personal Communication System (PCS), and in particular, a position from a satellite in a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver provided in a base station. Receiving the data for calculation to calculate the location information of the base station, by providing the base station location information from the base station control processor (BCP) to the mobile station and the base station manager (Base Station Manager; BSM), The present invention relates to a method for providing base station location information in which a location of a base station can be identified in a management system (BSM) and a mobile subscriber can grasp approximate location information having an error within a range of a base station's service area.

In general, a base station management system (BSM) of a CDMA system displays a base station managed by the BSM by using a graphical user interface (GUI) to operate alarm processing and status management. The base station information is assigned a logical number regardless of the actual location information and displayed by the GUI.

In the conventional case, the base station is mainly installed in the building, there was no difficulty in management, but in recent years, since the base station has become smaller and lighter, the base station is often installed in a suitable place outside the building. As a result, it becomes difficult to accurately locate the base station, making it difficult to manage and operate the base station.

Therefore, the present invention has been proposed to solve the above conventional problems, the object of the present invention is

A GPS receiver provided in the base station receives data for calculating a position from a satellite to calculate position information of the base station, and the base station position information is transferred from a base station control processor (BCP) to a mobile station and a base station management system (Base). Station Manager (BSM) provides a method for providing base station location information so that a base station management system (BSM) can determine the location of a base station and a mobile subscriber can obtain approximate location information having an error within the service area of the base station. To provide.

In order to achieve the above object, the base station location information providing method according to the present invention,

A first step of receiving data for calculating position information from a satellite at a GPS receiver and calculating latitude, longitude, and altitude information of a position at which a GPS receiver is currently used;

When the calculated position information is transmitted to a base station control processor (BCP) of the base station through a time & frequency card assembly (TFCA), the BCP can identify the position information by a base station management system (BSM). And a second step of transmitting to the mobile station by including the base station information so that the mobile subscriber can know the location.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram of a CDMA system to which the present invention is applied.

As shown, the base station 20 receives the data for calculating the position of the GPS receiver from the satellite 10, calculates the latitude, longitude, and altitude of the position where the GPS receiver 21 is being used, and operates the base station. A GPS receiver 21 for providing reference frequency and reference time information for each other; A time & frequency card assembly (TFCA) 22 for generating a system clock and a time clock of the base station using the reference frequency and reference time information provided by the GPS receiver 21; A control processor (BCP) 23 for controlling the overall operation of the base station and providing the base station position information calculated by the GPS receiver 21 to the mobile station 40 and the base station management system (BSM) 30.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a method for providing base station location information according to the present invention performed in such a base station.

In the method of providing base station location information, the GPS receiver 21 receives data for calculating location information from a satellite and calculates latitude, longitude, and altitude information of a location where the GPS receiver 21 is currently used (ST11). )Wow; When the calculated location information is transmitted to the BCP 23 through the TFCA 22, the BCP 23 transmits the location information to the base station management system 30 so that the operator can grasp the location information, and the mobile subscriber knows the location. The second steps ST12 and ST14 are included in the base station information and transmitted to the mobile station 40.

Referring to the base station location information providing method according to the present invention as follows.

The GPS receiver 21 of the base station 20 receives data from satellites to determine the position of the system in which the base station 20 is used, and receives latitude, longitude, and altitude information of the base station 20 having an error range of several tens of meters. It calculates (ST11). Then, the GPS receiver 21 transmits to the TFCA 22 which is operated in conjunction with the self, and the TFCA 22 transmits this location information to the control processor (BCP) 23 which is in charge of the overall control of the base station ( ST12).

When the base station position information is transmitted in this way, the BCP 23 transmits the position information to the base station management system 30. Thus, the base station management system 30 outputs this position information to the operator, so that the operator can check the position of the base station (ST13, ST14).

The BCP 23 transmits the base station information to the mobile station 40 through the synchronization channel, which is provided to the mobile station 40 including the location information. Accordingly, the mobile subscriber can use the menu of the mobile station to know the approximate location information having an error within the range of the cell covered by the base station 20.

The present invention can also be applied to the positioning of a system using a GPS receiver.

As described above, in the method for providing base station location information according to the present invention, a GPS receiver provided in the base station receives data for calculating a location from a satellite, calculates location information of the base station, and controls the base station location information. By providing a base station control processor (BCP) to the mobile station and the base station manager (BSM), the base station management system (BSM) allows the operator to determine the location of the base station, making it easy to manage and operate the base station. The mobile subscriber can determine the approximate location information with an error within the service area of the base station.
