With reference to Fig. 2, introduce second embodiment of the invention, about the method for a kind of UE location, in the present embodiment, after the location survey order that UE reception sources sub-district sends, to obtain location measurement information, and report the cell-of-origin, this method specifically comprises:
Step 201: the cell-of-origin sends the location survey order to UE.
In embodiment of the present invention, when needs positioned business, the cell-of-origin sent the location survey order to UE, required UE to measure the location measurement information of neighbor cell.For example, gateway measurement and positioning center (Gateway Measurement Location Center, GMLC), to Mobility Management Entity (MobilityManage Entity, MME) send Location Request,, require to provide the positional information of UE as Provide Subscriber Location message, then MME sends locating request message to the cell-of-origin at UE place, as Location Reporting Control.The cell-of-origin sends the location survey order to UE after the locating request message that receives the MME transmission.
The location survey order carry UE with the cell ID of the neighbor cell measured (Identity, ID).And Radio Resource control (the Radio Resource Control of UE can sent to, RRC) connect reallocation message, comprise in the RRC connection reallocation message and comprise the measuring time interval (GAP) and DRX in the measuring control information, can be so that UE has time enough to go to obtain the location measurement information of neighbor cell.The cell-of-origin can by the suitable discontinuous reception of configuration (Disconnectinuous Reception, DRX) cycle guarantees that UE is in " idle condition " in follow-up a period of time, to carry out the sub-district synchronous with neighbor cell, and the transmission that sends preamble.Concrete downstream signal can comprise: and Master Information Block (MasterInformation Block, MIB), i.e. PBCH information, perhaps down-going synchronous signaling.
Step 202:UE after receiving the location survey order, acquisition time lead TA information.
UE obtains the TA in the cell-of-origin, and according to the sub-district ID of neighbor cell, UE obtains the TA information of UE to different neighbor cells by the random access procedure to different neighbor cells.
In random access procedure, UE uploads random access guiding (Random Access Preamble) to cell-of-origin or neighbor cell after carrying out synchronously.After cell-of-origin or neighbor cell receive the random access guiding that UE sends, calculate and UE between distance.According to the distance between UE and the sub-district, the time that UE is sent upward signal is adjusted, can allow UE in advance or delay the transmission upward signal, for the UE of distance, dispose bigger TA information, allow UE send signal in advance, for the near UE of distance, the upward signal that the UE under same sub-district sends disposes less TA information, allows UE delay the transmission signal, so that can arrive neighbor cell simultaneously.Each neighbor cell sends accidental access response message to UE, wherein comprises the TA information that each neighbor cell is handed down to UE.
Step 203:UE sends the position measurement report to the cell-of-origin.
UE comprises the TA information of each sub-district that UE obtains in the position measurement report that the cell-of-origin sends.Perhaps, also can be earlier obtain the geographical location information of UE according to the TA information calculations of each sub-district, in the measurement report of position, comprise the geographical location information of UE then by UE.
The cell-of-origin is after the position measurement report that receives the UE transmission, can further UE located in connection information be sent to network side entity, for example, can in Location Reporting, send position message to MME, the localization message that comprises UE in this position message, this localization message comprise the TA information of each sub-district that UE sends; If UE has comprised the geographical location information that UE calculates in the measurement report of position, then localization message can directly comprise the geographical location information that UE calculates.The TA information calculations of each sub-district that the cell-of-origin also can send according to UE obtains the UE geographical location information, and this UE geographical location information is included in sends to MME in the position message.MME can further send location response message to the location survey center.
With reference to Fig. 3, introduce third embodiment of the invention below, the method about a kind of UE location comprises:
Step 301: cell-of-origin and neighbor cell position coordination.
Configuration is measured to UE in the cell-of-origin, requires UE to report adjacent cell information, the adjacent cell information that the cell-of-origin reports according to UE, definite neighbor cell that is fit to measure the UE position.Then, the cell-of-origin is fit to measure the neighbor cell request coordination positioning UE of UE position to these, if proprietary preamble is then confirmed in the neighbor cell agreement between cell-of-origin and the neighbor cell.
Step 302: the cell-of-origin sends the location survey order to UE.
The cell-of-origin sends the location survey order to UE, requires UE to measure the location measurement information of each sub-district, also sends and the definite proprietary preamble of neighbor cell coordination to UE simultaneously.
Step 303:UE after receiving the location survey order, acquisition time lead TA information.
UE inserts to each sub-district according to the proprietary preamble that obtains, and obtains the TA information of different neighbor cells.
Step 304:UE comprises the TA information of each sub-district that UE obtains in the position measurement report that the cell-of-origin sends.Perhaps, also can be earlier obtain the geographical location information of UE according to the TA information calculations of each sub-district, in the measurement report of position, comprise the geographical location information of UE then by UE.
The cell-of-origin is after the position measurement report that receives the UE transmission, can further UE located in connection information be sent to network side entity, for example, can in Location Reporting, send position message to MME, the localization message that comprises UE in this position message, this localization message comprise the TA information of each sub-district that UE sends; If UE has comprised the geographical location information that UE calculates in the measurement report of position, then localization message can directly comprise the geographical location information that UE calculates.The TA information calculations of each sub-district that the cell-of-origin also can send according to UE obtains the UE geographical location information, and this UE geographical location information is included in sends to MME in the position message.MME can further send location response message to the location survey center.
In the present embodiment, cell-of-origin and neighbor cell position negotiation, determine the proprietary preamble that UE inserts at random, can be so that UE be in inserting the sub-district process, avoid conflict, accelerate to obtain location measurement information such as TA information, can position UE more quickly.
With reference to Fig. 4, introduce four embodiment of the invention, the method about a kind of UE location comprises:
Step 401: the cell-of-origin sends the location survey order to UE.
This location survey order request UE measures the time of reception of neighbor cell downstream signal, simultaneously, the cell-of-origin can guarantee that UE is in " idle condition " in follow-up a period of time by disposing suitable discontinuous reception DRX cycle, carries out the sub-district synchronously and the transmission of preamble with neighbor cell.Concrete downstream signal can comprise: MIB, i.e. PBCH information, perhaps down-going synchronous signaling.
Step 402:UE obtains the System Frame Number time difference information of neighbor cell after receiving the location survey order.
In the LTE system, Physical Broadcast Channel (Physical Broadcast Channel, PBCH) contain SFN information in, and PBCH is engraved in the frame when issuing and fixes, issue Physical Broadcast Channel (Physical Broadcast Channel every 10ms, PBCH), the coded system that the PBCH that issues in 40ms is different.High 8bit among the 10bit of SFN can obtain in the imformosome of PBCH, and low 2bit can obtain in the process that PBCH is decoded.Therefore, UE can detect a reference cell, due in TpbcRxj as the PBCH of cell-of-origin j, detect the SFN of neighbor cell i and the constantly nearest due in TpbcRxi of PBCH of reference cell again, can obtain difference is TpbcRxj-TpbcRxi, obtains the SFN time difference information of neighbor cell.Such as: the SFN=100 of cell-of-origin, subframe is 0 o'clock, has cell-of-origin MIB; But the MIB of certain an adjacent area MIB nearest with respect to the cell-of-origin is SFN=100, subframe is 3, and further deviant is 20Ts (Ts=1/2048*15K), then the SFN-SFN deviant of this adjacent area and reference cell be 3 subframe+20Ts=(3 milliseconds+20Ts).
Perhaps, UE also can select cell reference signals (RS) as measuring-signal or sub-district synchronizing signal, obtains the SFN time difference information of neighbor cell.
Because the precision of SFN is 10ms, does not reach the requirement of positioning UE, therefore, SFN is that UE measures the downstream signal preliminary foundation of the time of advent, further, UE also needed according to more accurate moment of self clock log, i.e. the due in of certain subframe in the 10ms frame.UE reads the SFN of each sub-district and UE this moment self absolute time value, and further, UE can calculate the SFN of each sub-district this moment, the time offset value that subframe numbers and precision are higher.In the method that UE is positioned according to the SFN time difference information, require to know the synchronizing information of each phase sub-district, perhaps whole network is synchronous, for synchronous network system, UE can directly calculate the downgoing time difference of a plurality of neighbor cells to UE.
Step 403:UE sends the position measurement report to the cell-of-origin.
Comprising the location measurement information that UE obtains in this position measurement report, comprise the SFN time difference information of each neighbor cell that UE obtains, perhaps also can be the geographical location information that UE directly calculates according to the SFN time difference information.
The cell-of-origin is after the position measurement report that receives the UE transmission, can further UE located in connection information be sent to network side entity, for example, can in Location Reporting, send position message to MME, the localization message that comprises UE in this position message, this localization message comprises the SFN time difference information of each neighbor cell, if UE has comprised the geographical location information that UE calculates in the measurement report of position, then localization message can directly comprise the geographical location information that UE calculates.The cell-of-origin also can calculate the geographical location information of UE according to each neighbor cell SFN time difference information of UE feedback, sends position message to MME, comprises the geographical location information of UE in this position message.
According to the SFN time difference information of each neighbor cell of UE feedback, can obtain one is the hyperbola of focus with this adjacent area antenna and cell-of-origin antenna.After the SFN-SFN deviant of determining a plurality of neighbor cells, just can obtain hyp intersection point, so just can determine the position of UE.Generally speaking, measure promptly and can position, certainly, also can carry out location by more neighbor cell to UE to UE by 3 neighbor cells.MME sends location response message to the location survey center.
Below with reference to Fig. 5, introduce fifth embodiment of the invention, about the method for a kind of UE location, in the method that present embodiment provides, switch in turn in neighbor cell by UE, each sub-district obtains to send to the cell-of-origin after the location measurement information, thereby realize the location to UE, this method comprises:
Step 501 is step 301 and 302 basic identical to step 502 and the 3rd execution mode.
Step 503:UE switches to each neighbor cell in turn, and each neighbor cell obtains TA information respectively.
According to the result that cell-of-origin and neighbor cell are coordinated, network side is carried out the preparation of switching.In the random access procedure that UE switches, when UE sends proprietary preamble to neighbor cell, neighbor cell can obtain the TA information of UE according to proprietary preamble.The precision that the TA adjustment of UE is issued in the sub-district is 0.52 microsecond, but in fact, the preamble that the sub-district can obtain accepts ratio of precision 0.25 microsecond height constantly, therefore, the TA information that feeds back to the cell-of-origin by neighbor cell is than the TA information that UE feeds back higher precision to be arranged, like this, the TA information that obtains by the sub-district can position UE more accurately.
Step 504: neighbor cell sends to the cell-of-origin with the TA information that obtains.
After each neighbor cell obtains TA information, can TA information be sent to the cell-of-origin by the X2 interface between the sub-district.Further, the cell-of-origin is after obtaining TA information, can in Location Reporting, send position message to MM, comprise the TA information that neighbor cell obtains in this position message, the cell-of-origin also can obtain the UE geographical location information according to this TA information calculations, and this UE geographical location information is included in sends to MME in the position message.MME can further send location response message to the location survey center.
