Summary of the invention
The invention provides a kind of paging method of group call, the problem that can not guarantee in the very short time that requires, to call out the collective group user when solving the group call that exists in the prior art.
The inventive method comprises:
A, when the user asks group call, the PTT service device sends paging request message to base station controller, carries the information of mobile terminal of group's group number of being requested group and this group in this message;
B, base station controller carry the group calling message of described group's group number and paging frequency and the paging time-slot information that this group's portable terminal is monitored to the base station transmission;
Transmit described group calling message in C, the paging time-slot of base station on described paging frequency;
D, portable terminal connect according to the group information call accepted of the coupling of the group's group number in the group calling message self.
Described information of mobile terminal is the international mobile subscriber identification code IMSI of portable terminal; Among the described step B, base station controller is determined paging frequency and the paging time-slot that corresponding portable terminal is monitored according to IMSI.
According to said method of the present invention, base station controller adopts hash algorithm to calculate paging frequency and paging time-slot that corresponding portable terminal is monitored according to international mobile subscriber identification code IMSI.
According to said method of the present invention, in the described steps A, the PTT service device sends a paging request message respectively according to being requested different paging domains mobile terminal affiliated in the group.
Described paging request message comprises: the international mobile subscriber identification code IMSI and the slot cycle index information of each the portable terminal correspondence in group's group number, paging domain, this group in this paging domain.
Comprise also among the described step B that base station controller relatively monitors the pairing slot cycle index of portable terminal of same paging time-slot on the same paging frequency, maximum slot cycle index is handed down to the base station; Among the described step C, when group calling message is transmitted in the base station, if paging time-slot is occupied, then calculate corresponding next paging time-slot, and in this next one paging time-slot, send described group calling message according to described maximum slot cycle index.
Described slot cycle index information is given described PTT service device by mobile terminal reporting.
The group information of described portable terminal is issued by the PTT service device or upgrades.
After the PTT service device was made amendment to the group information of portable terminal, stabbed memory time, and the group information after portable terminal issues this timestamp and upgrades.
When the mobile terminal request cluster position is upgraded, report the last time to carry out the timestamp of group information updating; If the PTT service device judge the timestamp that reports with memory time stamp inequality, then carry out the group information updating of portable terminal.
Beneficial effect of the present invention is as follows:
(1) the present invention uses group group number to carry out group paging, for a group call, only needs to send several paging request message and gets final product, and call setup speed is fast, can satisfy the requirement of group service " PoC ";
(2) BSC sends a group calling message and can call out a plurality of portable terminals of monitoring same paging time-slot on the same paging frequency simultaneously in the inventive method, therefore, greatly alleviate the pressure of paging channel transmission beep-page message, saved system resource, the corresponding power system capacity that improved.
Embodiment
Referring to Fig. 1, be the system architecture diagram that group call relates to, comprise base station (BTS), base station controller (BSC) and PTT (PTT) server.The Um mouth is the air interface between portable terminal and the base station, and Abis is the interface of BTS and BSC, and Act is the CDMA trunking signal interface between Packet Control Function in the base station controller (PCF) and ptt server.
When portable terminal was initiated group call, the inventive method was by flow performing shown in Figure 2.Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the concrete implementation step of the inventive method is described in detail.
Step S11, mobile subscriber initiate group call by the base station to ptt server.
Mobile subscriber herein can be a user in the called group, also can be user or user who does not add any group of another group, as long as this user has the right to initiate group call.
After step S12, ptt server are received a group call, send paging request message, in this message, carry the group group number that is requested group and the information of mobile terminal of this group to base station controller.
In this step, information of mobile terminal can be the international mobile subscriber identification code (IMSI) of all portable terminals in this called group, also can be the identification information of a portable terminal of other unique identification.When sending paging request message, the PTT service device sends a paging request message respectively according to being requested different paging domains mobile terminal affiliated in the group; Promptly be requested all portable terminals in the group if belong to same paging domain, then only need send a paging request message; If all portable terminals that are requested in the group belong to two, three or more different paging domains, then ptt server needs corresponding send two, three or more paging request message.
In the paging request message that sends, need to comprise the IMSI (as example) and each portable terminal time slot corresponding periodic key (the Slot Cycle Index) information that belong to all portable terminals in this zone in paging group group number, paging domain information, this group at least.Because ptt server has the function of the customer location management that is similar to mobile switching centre (MSC),, use this zone to carry out paging during paging by the position area information at the current place of new technological process maintenance customer more; The slot cycle index information of portable terminal reports to ptt server by portable terminal when the position is upgraded.
Step S13, base station controller carry the group calling message of above-mentioned group's group number and paging frequency and the paging time-slot information that this group's portable terminal is monitored to the base station transmission.
Specifically comprise: after BSC receives the paging request message of ptt server transmission, assembling and transmission PTT group calling message (Group Page Message) among the message layer 2LAC, only comprise automatic-answering back device sublayer (ARQ) information, do not comprise sublayer, address information, comprise called group's group number in the layer 3.For example, this PTT group calling message format is:

Layer three message comprise called group's group number |
Because different portable terminals is monitored different frequencies, so BSC need inform paging frequency and corresponding paging time-slot that each portable terminal of the called group member of BTS is monitored.For example: the IMSI of the group member that BSC sends according to ptt server, notify BTS after using hash algorithm to calculate paging frequency that each portable terminal monitors and paging time-slot.
As shown in Figure 3, BSC is according to the IMSI of a plurality of portable terminals, calculates to send PTT group calling message, n the portable terminals of No. 2 paging time-slot pagings (MS1 is to MSn) of its intermediate-frequeney point 2 in the 2nd, No. 3 time slot of the 0th, No. 3 time slot of frequency 1 and frequency 2.Because monitoring the pairing slot cycle index of a plurality of portable terminals of same paging time-slot on the same paging frequency might be different, so BSC also issues maximum in the pairing slot cycle index of a plurality of portable terminals of monitoring same paging time-slot on the same paging frequency to BTS.
Transmit described group calling message in step S14, the BTS paging time-slot on all paging frequencies that BSC issues.
For example, BTS sends PTT group calling message in the 2nd, No. 3 time slot of the 0th, No. 3 time slot of frequency 1 shown in Figure 3 and frequency 2.If No. 2 paging time-slot of frequency 2 is occupied, can't send this beep-page message, then need send at next paging cycle, because this paging time-slot is the paging at n portable terminal, and the slot cycle index of each portable terminal might be different, therefore, for can be, should get maximum Imax in the pairing slot cycle index of this n portable terminal as slot cycle index value by the paging of a group calling message to this n portable terminal.In this case, BTS adopts the maximum in the slot cycle index that BSC issues to determine that the next paging time-slot that sends group calling message is 16 * 2
ImaxAfter the individual time slot; Suppose that maximum slot cycle index is 1, then next paging time-slot is 2+16 * 2
1=No. 34 time slots.Like this, use a group calling message, can this n of paging monitor the portable terminal of No. 2 time slot of frequency 2, improved the efficient of paging greatly.
The hash algorithm of above mentioning has specific descriptions in cdma2000 air protocol IS2000-5, be omitted at this.
Step S15, portable terminal connect according to the group information call accepted of the coupling of the group's group number in the group calling message self.
In this step, portable terminal is if the group's group number that listens in this group calling message is identical with the group that self adds, and then response is called out; Otherwise, this group calling is not inserted response.
In the methods of the invention, owing to adopt group's group number call group user, so group's portable terminal should keep the synchronous renewal of group information with ptt server, could guarantee that group user in time, accurately replys group call.Concrete portable terminal group information updating method comprises following manner.
Mode one: when carrying out the cluster position renewal behind the mobile terminal-opening or by the time cycle of setting, upgrade group information.
Referring to Fig. 4, portable terminal is carrying out need carrying when cluster position is upgraded the timestamp that the last time carries out group information updating.This timestamp is safeguarded that by ptt server ptt server was notified portable terminal after portable terminal was finished group information updating, by portable terminal this timestamp was preserved.If ptt server is revised the then corresponding change of the timestamp of ptt server side to this group information later on; When portable terminal carries out the cluster position renewal, the current time of timestamp that ptt server will carry up and ptt server side stabs and compares, if it is different, show that ptt server revises the group information of portable terminal, and mobile terminal side upgrades not also in time, therefore, ptt server sends the group updating indication to portable terminal, after portable terminal is received, initiate the group information updating request, the group information that ptt server issues after the renewal is given portable terminal.
Mode two: initiate group information updating by ptt server.
Referring to Fig. 5, if the keeper changes the group information of ptt server, as increasing or having deleted group member, then can send the group updating indication to the portable terminal that is increased or deletes in real time by ptt server, after portable terminal is received, initiate the group information updating request, the group information that ptt server issues after the renewal is given portable terminal.
Send in the group updating indication process at ptt server,, then do not do any processing, pass through above-mentioned registering flow path flip flop group group information updating behind the mobile terminal activating if portable terminal is in deactivation status;
When if this portable terminal is in state of activation for newly-increased member, if do not receive the group updating indication, then ptt server need send the group updating indication periodically, till this portable terminal is received;
When if this portable terminal is in state of activation for group's removing members, if do not receive the group updating indication, ptt server can no longer continue to handle.
Mode three: the refuse information flip flop group group information updating that returns by ptt server.
Referring to Fig. 6, ptt server is initiated group paging, if portable terminal is deleted but owing in time do not carry out group information updating in group, to take for oneself also be group member and when responding to this portable terminal when this group paging, then ptt server can be refused this user's call setup, and the Reason For Denial value does not belong to this group for the user, after mobile phone is received this refuse information, initiate the cluster position update request, the group information that ptt server issues after the renewal is given portable terminal.
By above-mentioned several group information updating flow processs, portable terminal can be preserved correct group information in real time, when ptt server adopts group's group number to carry out group paging, carries out quick, correct page response.
Obviously, those skilled in the art can carry out various changes and modification to the present invention and not break away from the spirit and scope of the present invention.Like this, if of the present invention these are revised and modification belongs within the scope of claim of the present invention and equivalent technologies thereof, then the present invention also is intended to comprise these changes and modification interior.
