Fig. 4 shows the embodiment that TA rank of the present invention is reshuffled flow process, and Fig. 5 shows the flow chart of UE measurement self translational speed situation of change among this embodiment.In the present embodiment, set in advance time-count cycle and UE speed step and other corresponding relation of TA level of timer among the UE, and this corresponding relation is kept among the MME.When expired the time-count cycle of timer, UE measured the self speed rank, and when determining to reconfigure the TA rank, UE initiates the TA rank and reshuffles flow process; Speed step and speed step of self preserving and TA rank corresponding relation that MME reports according to UE are UE configuration TA rank again.
Referring to Fig. 4, change according to the UE translational speed in the present embodiment and carry out the method that the TA rank reshuffles and may further comprise the steps:
In step 401~402, UE determines by measuring the self speed rank whether translational speed changes, and when needs reconfigure the TA rank,, send to MME among the ECN with carrying other TA rank reconfiguration request message of present speed rank and current TA level by ERAN.
When UE determines to reconfigure the TA rank, calculate comparison sub-module and TA rank memory module and respectively the speed step of UE and current information such as TA rank are sent to communication module, communication module with the information that receives as cell, form TA rank reconfiguration request message, and send to MME by ERAN.
In step 403~404, after MME receives the TA rank reconfiguration request message that comes from UE, from this message, parse the speed step of UE and current TA rank, and according to speed step and other corresponding relation of TA level of self preserving, reconfigure the TA rank of this UE correspondence, and the TA rank that reconfigures is carried on the TA rank reshuffles and accept to return to UE by ERAN in the message.
Here, after the communication module among the MME receives the TA rank reconfiguration request message of ERAN transparent transmission, extraction rate rank and current TA rank from this message, and speed step and the current TA rank of being extracted sent to the control submodule.Then, the control submodule reads the current TA rank of this UE from TA rank record sub module, compare with the current TA rank that comes from communication module, and under the situation of both unanimities, the control submodule is an index with the speed step that receives, read speed step and other corresponding relation of TA level of preserving in the corresponding relation sub module stored, determine and the corresponding TA rank of speed step that receives.Then, the control submodule returns to communication module with determined TA rank, communication module with this TA rank as cell, composition TA rank is reshuffled and is accepted message, by ERAN this TA rank is reshuffled reception message again and return to UE, indicate MME and accepted UE, and disposed new TA rank about reconfiguring other request of TA level.
In step 405~406, UE adjusts to the TA rank that reconfigures with current TA rank, upgrades the keeping records of TA rank, and reshuffles acknowledge message to MME transmission TA rank.
In two steps herein, the communication module among the UE is reshuffled the TA rank of accepting to parse the message through reconfiguring from the TA rank that receives, and the TA rank that parses is submitted to TA rank memory module; TA rank memory module is the TA rank that receives with current TA grade renewal, and preserves new TA rank at self.Then, TA rank memory module sends to communication module among the UE with the TA rank that reconfigures, communication module is carried on the TA rank with the TA rank that receives and reshuffles in the acknowledge message, sends to MME by ERAN, and this UE of notice MME has been in the TA rank that reconfigures at present.
In step 407, MME reshuffles acknowledge message according to the TA rank that receives, and upgrades the TA class information of this UE correspondence of self preserving.
In this step, communication module among the MME receives after the TA rank reshuffles acknowledge message, therefrom parse the TA rank that reconfigures, and by the control submodule among the MME, the TA rank that parses is sent to TA rank record sub module, upgrade the TA class information of this UE correspondence of self preserving by TA rank record sub module.
So far, finished in the present embodiment translational speed and carried out the flow process that the TA rank is reshuffled based on UE.
By above-mentioned flow process as seen, present embodiment key point is that UE can know which kind of variation and present located speed step have taken place the translational speed of self.In the present embodiment, UE by to current period and the last week interim TAU number and Cell ID change number of times and compare, change number of times together with the Cell ID in the current period, determine the speed step of UE, and the situation of change of self speed.For the ease of determining whether the TA rank needs to change, set in advance TAU several difference limen value x of showing that the TA rank need increase in the present embodiment, show the 2nd TAU several difference limen value y that the TA rank need reduce and show that Cell ID that the TA rank need reduce changes the absolute value threshold value k that frequency threshold value z and Cell ID change the number of times difference, and x, z and k are positive number, and y is a negative.In addition, also set in advance corresponding relation between TAU number difference and speed step and Cell ID change number of times and the speed step in the present embodiment.Above-mentioned threshold value and corresponding relation all are kept in the calculating comparison sub-module of UE.Referring to Fig. 5, the process of UE measurement self speed step comprises:
Step 501~503.TAU time counter and Cell ID change the number of times counter O reset, and write down TAU the number of UE and the change number of times of Cell ID respectively; Judge whether timer expires, if then execution in step 504, otherwise, return in the execution in step 502 operation of TAU number of record and Cell ID change number of times.
For UE, the change number of times of the number of times of TAU and Cell ID is an important indicator of weighing this UE translational speed speed under idle condition.In other words, TAU time number is relevant with the number that the UE that is in idle condition passes through the TA identical with self current TA rank of living in, and TAU time number is many more, shows that the UE translational speed is fast more; And Cell ID change number of times and UE the number of sub-district of process relevant, CellID change number of times is many more, the translational speed of UE is fast more.
Step 504~505. counters stop counting, and TAU number being write down and Cell ID are changed number of times submit to the change in location sub module stored, relatively computing module reads TAU the number and the Cell ID change number of times in current period and last cycle from the change in location sub module stored, and compares.
When timer expires, show to arrive current measurement period in time that then two counters change number of times with TAU number of the current period that self writes down and Cell ID respectively and submit to the change in location sub module stored.Owing to preserve corresponding TAU number and Cell ID change number of times according to each measurement period in the change in location sub module stored, therefore relatively computing module can be a foundation with the data in the change in location sub module stored, gets access to the change in location information in current measurement period and the last measurement period.
Suppose that TAU number in the current measurement period is TAU
n, to change number of times be Δ CI to Cell ID
n, TAU number in the last measurement period is TAU
N-1, to change number of times be Δ CI to Cell ID
N-1, then the concrete operations that compare of this place are: calculate TAU number in adjacent two measurement periods poor=TAU
n-TAU
N-1, and the change number of times of Cell ID poor=Δ CI
n-Δ CI
N-1
Step 506~507. judge whether TUA number difference equals 0, if then execution in step 513; Otherwise whether TAU number difference be greater than 0, if greater than 0, then execution in step 508, if less than 0, then execution in step 511.
If TUA number difference equals 0, show that then UE has carried out the TAU of same number or do not carried out TAU in two adjacent cycles herein; If the TA number that TAU number difference, then shows UE process in current period greater than 0 is more than the TA number of interim process the last week, promptly the speed of UE improves; If TAU number difference less than 0, shows that then the speed of UE reduces.
TAU number difference judged greater than a TAU several difference limen value x in step 508~509. whether, if, judge that then UE speed improves, and determine UE present located speed step according to TAU number difference, then return execution in step 501; Otherwise, execution in step 514.
Surpass under the situation of TAU several difference limen value x TAU number difference, the present pairing TA rank of UE has been unsuitable for its current translational speed faster, therefore, the calculating comparison sub-module among the UE is judged that the TA rank of this UE correspondence need be reshuffled by the TA rank and is increased.In addition, the calculating comparison sub-module among the UE is an index with TAU several differences also, in the corresponding relation of TAU number difference of self preserving and speed step, retrieves UE present located speed step, and this speed step is sent to communication module among the UE; Simultaneously, the TA rank memory module among the UE also sends to communication module with the TA rank of the current correspondence of UE.
TAU number difference judged less than the 2nd TAU several difference limen value y in step 510~511. whether, if, judge that then UE speed reduces, and determine UE present located speed step according to TAU number difference, then carry out and return step 501; Otherwise, execution in step 514.
Under the situation of TAU number difference less than the 2nd TAU several difference limen value y, the present pairing TA rank of UE has been unsuitable for its current slower translational speed, therefore, the calculating comparison sub-module among the UE is judged that the TA rank of this UE correspondence need be reshuffled by the TA rank and is reduced.In addition, the calculating comparison sub-module among the UE is an index with TAU several differences also, in the corresponding relation of TAU number difference of self preserving and speed step, retrieves UE present located speed step, and this speed step is sent to communication module among the UE; Simultaneously, the TA rank memory module among the UE also sends to communication module with the TA rank of the current correspondence of UE.
Step 512~513. judge that the CeU ID of current period changes number of times and whether changes whether absolute value that frequency threshold value z and Cell ID change the number of times difference changes the number of times difference less than CellID absolute value threshold value k less than CellID, if all less than, judge that then UE speed reduces, and change number of times according to Cell ID and determine UE present located speed step, then return execution in step 501; Otherwise, execution in step 514.
Be under 0 the situation TAU several difference, if it is smaller that the Cell ID of current period changes number of times, and the Cell ID in current period and last cycle changes the absolute value of number of times difference less than certain value, showing then that UE is current is in state static or that move at a slow speed, therefore, need reshuffle by the TA rank and reduce the TA rank, to avoid resource waste.
At TAU number difference changes number of times and Cell ID change number of times difference less than TAU severals difference limen value x, greater than the 2nd TAU several difference limen value v and Cell ID absolute value all under the situation greater than respective threshold, bigger fluctuation does not appear in the translational speed that shows UE, then current pairing TA rank still is fit to, and therefore need not to reconfigure the TA rank.
So far, having finished in the present embodiment UE measures self velocity variations and determines whether to need to initiate the flow process that the TA rank is reshuffled.
Step 501 to 514 in, TAU number of adjacent periods and Cell ID are changed number of times compare, the present invention also can adopt be separated by cycle of fixed cycle number of TAU number of current period and Cell ID change number of times and front is compared.In such cases, can set in advance the measurement period spacing and count i, then TAU number poor=TAU
n-TAU
N-i, Cell ID changes number of times poor=Cell ID
n-CellID
N-i
By said method and system, the UE among the present invention can measure the variation and the present located speed step of self translational speed, and carries out alternately with MME among the ECN, and other is reshuffled to carry out the TA level according to speed step.Like this, the present invention can reduce effectively because of UE and frequently carry out the network resources waste that TAU and large tracts of land paging UE cause.
The above only is preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is in order to restriction the present invention, within the spirit and principles in the present invention not all, any modification of being made, is equal to replacement, improvement etc., all should be included within protection scope of the present invention.
