Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to communication technical field, relate in particular to a kind of paging method and equipment.
Background technology
In third generation collaborative project (3GPP, Third Generation Partnership Project) connecting system, paging (Paging) is a kind of technical scheme that guarantees user terminal (UE, the User Equipment) accessibility of idle condition.When downlink data or descending Non-Access Stratum (NAS, Non-Access Stratum) signaling, and UE is when being in idle condition, and then the user mobility management control entity of 3GPP system can be initiated the paging to UE, can reach with the UE that guarantees idle condition.The UE of idle condition can regularly detect the paging that whether has from network side according to discontinuous reception (DRX, the Discontinuous Reception) time that parameter determined, UE use DRX mode is for the consumption that reduces its CPU and saves battery consumption.If the user mobility management control entity in the paging re-transmission period of appointment, do not receive service request (Service Request) message of UE or not therewith UE set up signaling and connect, then when the paging re-transmission period arrives, this user mobility management control entity is carried out paging to this UE once more, so repeated paging is behind the number of times of appointment, and do not receive the page response of this UE in the paging re-transmission period yet, then this user mobility management control entity is thought paging failure.
Fig. 1 shows the relation of beep-page message re-transmission period and beep-page message, and described beep-page message re-transmission period is meant that the user mobility management control entity repeats to send the time interval of beep-page message to wireless access network.And UE detects by the time interval of DRX whether beep-page message is arranged on paging channel.Some wireless access network can only be made up of macro base station, evolved packet system (EPS as version 8 (R8), Evloved Packet System), and also comprise other node except macro base station in some wireless access network, as universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS, Universal Mobile Telecommunication System) in, wireless access network is by radio network controller (RNC, Radio Network Controller) and base station (Node B) form, Node B wherein is a macro base station.
UE is when using macro base station, because distant under the most situation of distance of UE and macro base station, and the variation of the distance between UE and the macro base station also may be than comparatively fast, may be on the car that travels as UE.Wireless communications environment between UE and the macro base station is more complicated all generally, at a time the wireless transmission between UE and the base station is very bad, UE can not receive beep-page message, but after having spent the regular hour, because the mobility of UE, wireless transmission between UE and the base station is relatively good, and UE just can receive beep-page message.Therefore in order to guarantee that under the complicated wireless communications environment of long distance, UE fast moving paging as much as possible needs long beep-page message re-transmission period is set to this UE, and bigger maximum repeated paging number of times.So though improved the success rate of paging, UE may respond the paging that the user mobility management control entity is initiated in a last beep-page message re-transmission period, introduce more time delay.
Home eNodeB is the 3GPP a kind of new femto cell of definition recently, generally is installed in indoorly, and Home eNodeB can provide wireless access at a high speed, and can solve the problem of indoor wireless covering in less expensive ground.The use of Home eNodeB is equivalent to the cell splitting technology, has improved the utilization rate of frequency spectrum.Home eNodeB is installed in indoor, so distance generally little (being no more than 100 meters) between UE and the Home eNodeB, and the translational speed between UE and the Home eNodeB can very fast (not being no more than per hour 5 kilometers), therefore Home eNodeB only need use very little transmitting power, just can realize the extraordinary radio communication of quality with UE, need not to adopt macro base station the complexity, expensive wireless communication technology that extensively adopt.Yet prior art also not at the situation that may have Home eNodeB in the paging domain, provides corresponding paging mechanism.

Embodiment
The embodiment of the invention provides a kind of paging method and equipment, in order at the situation that may have Home eNodeB in the paging domain, realizes the paging to the user terminal under the idle condition.
Because Home eNodeB is installed in indoor, wireless communications environment between UE and the Home eNodeB is relatively good, communication quality is also relatively good, the user mobility management control entity does not then make full use of the good characteristic of wireless communications environment of Home eNodeB and UE if also use the paging method identical with macro base station paging UE in the zone that Home eNodeB covered.Therefore, in the zone that Home eNodeB covered, there is no need also to use the paging mode of long beep-page message re-transmission period, bigger maximum repeated paging number of times fully, and can adopt a kind of paging mode of optimization, can realize the Quick Paging of network, can guarantee not increase when UE responds paging fast the size of message of paging, and improve user's experience effect.
Home eNodeB has two types, promptly evolved Home eNodeB (HeNB, Home eNodeB) and common Home eNodeB (HNB, Home NodeB), and wherein HeNB adopts the LTE wireless access technology, and HNB adopts the UMTS wireless access technology.Therefore, HeNB can only with Mobility Management Entity (MME, Mobility Management Entity) links to each other, HNB can only with (the MSC of mobile switching centre, Mobile Switching Center)/VLR Visitor Location Register (VLR, Visited Location Register) or service universal packet wireless business (GPRS, the General Packet Radio Service) service node (SGSN, Serving GPRS Support Node) of being engaged in link to each other.When UE used the LTE access technology to be registered to the EPS network, its corresponding user mobility management control entity was MME.When UE used the UMTS access technology to be registered to circuit switching (CS, Circuit Switched) territory, its corresponding user mobility management control entity was MSC/VLR; When UE used the UMTS access technology to be registered to packet switching (PS, Packed Switched) territory, its corresponding user mobility management control entity was SGSN.It is independently that UE uses UMTS access technology registration CS territory and UE registration PS territory, and the mobility management process in these two territories is independently.That is to say that UE can only be registered to the CS territory, or only be registered to the PS territory, or be registered to the PS territory more simultaneously after can being registered to the CS territory earlier.
The access module of Home eNodeB has three kinds, and a kind of is open access module (Open Access Mode); Second kind is closed access module (Closed Access Mode); The third is to mix access module (Hybrid Access Mode).In Open Access Mode, Home eNodeB is operated in general sub-district, promptly non-closed user group (CSG, Closed Subscriber Group) sub-district (non-CSG cell); In Closed Access Mode, Home eNodeB is operated in CSG sub-district (CSG cell), but does not allow non-CSG member's visit; In Hybrid Access Mode, Home eNodeB is operated in CSG sub-district (CSG cell), but allows non-CSG member's visit simultaneously.
Existing standard TR23.830 has stipulated to be linked into user mobility management control entity (SGSN as UE by Home eNodeB, or MSC/VLR, or MME) time, Home eNodeB need be indicated current access module of this Home eNodeB of user mobility management control entity and employed closed subscriber group identity (CSG ID).Obviously, by this method, the user mobility management control entity can know that UE still is that Home eNodeB inserts this user mobility management control entity by macro base station.TR23.830 stipulates that also the closed user group sub-district (CSG Cell) of Home eNodeB can use identical or different Location Area Identification with the non-CSG Cell of macro base station, be Routing Area Identifier (RAI, Routing Area Identity)/CS territory Location Area Identification (LAI, Location Area Identity)/tracking area identification (TAI, Tracking Area Identity), therefore, the user mobility management control entity is that can not to judge UE be at present in the sub-district of Home eNodeB or in the non-CSG of macro base station Cell from the Location Area Identification (RAI/LAI/TAI) at UE place only.
When the service this UE network work in a kind of specific pattern, be the Network Operation modes I that defines among the standard TS23.060, under this network work pattern, exist Gs interface between MSC/VLR and the SGSN, then between the MSC/VLR of UE registration and the SGSN can by Gs interface set up one related, UE can be joined together to operate in the mobile management in CS territory and the mobility management process in PS territory, UE only need carry out the mobility management process of an associating like this, just can finish the mobility management process in two territories simultaneously, the mobility management process that former UE can be carried out two territories like this reduces to the mobility management process that UE only need carry out an associating, thereby reduce the signaling of eating dishes without rice or wine, and the performance of raising whole system, improve user's user experience.Set up the related of Gs interface when between MSC/VLR and the SGSN, then MSC/VLR and SGSN will write down the other side's information such as address.Therefore in the UMTS system, three kinds of pagings are arranged: the paging of initiating by MSC/VLR in the CS territory, the paging that SGSN initiates in the PS territory, and united paging.
The paging technique that is proposed in the embodiment of the invention does not have specific requirement to the type of paging, is applicable to the paging to any kind of the UE of idle condition.
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing the technical scheme that the embodiment of the invention provides is elaborated.
Referring to Fig. 2, a kind of paging method that the embodiment of the invention provides comprises step:
S101, user mobility management control entity are determined the paging domain of the user terminal initiation paging under idle condition.
S102, user mobility management control entity are determined the type of the base station in the paging domain.
The type of base station is divided into two kinds, i.e. Home eNodeB and macro base station.
S103, user mobility management control entity are by Home eNodeB in the paging domain and/or the user terminal under the macro base station paging idle condition.
Because identical Location Area Identification can be used with macrocell in the resident CSG sub-district of UE, when the user mobility management control entity when paging is initiated in this lane place, be Home eNodeB and/or macro base station transmission beep-page message to these lane place, therefore the user mobility management control entity need know that the type of the base station that is connected is macro base station or Home eNodeB, a kind of method can be determined base station type by static configuration, promptly distinguishes dissimilar base stations according to Base Station Identification; Another kind method can report that to the user mobility management control entity method of its access module determines base station type by Home eNodeB, as long as promptly having reported the base station of its access module is exactly Home eNodeB, the user mobility management control entity can dynamically be found the Home eNodeB that connected in advance thus.
Preferably, step S102 comprises:
The user mobility management control entity is defined as Home eNodeB with the base station that has sent the access module report, and the base station that will not send the access module report is defined as macro base station.
Need to prove that the base station in the paging domain may have only macro base station, only need carry out paging by macro base station this moment; Also may have only Home eNodeB, only need carry out paging by Home eNodeB this moment; Also may have two kinds of base stations, at this moment need parallel paging is initiated in these two kinds of base stations.
The user mobility management control entity sets in advance two cover paging parameters, and every cover paging parameters comprises beep-page message re-transmission period and maximum repeated paging number of times, and a cover paging parameters is corresponding with Home eNodeB, and an other cover paging parameters is corresponding with macro base station.Be used for process with the corresponding paging parameters of Home eNodeB, be used for process by the user terminal under the macro base station paging idle condition with the corresponding paging parameters of macro base station by the user terminal under the Home eNodeB paging idle condition.Wherein, with the corresponding beep-page message re-transmission period of Home eNodeB less than with the corresponding beep-page message re-transmission period of macro base station; Can be configured to the corresponding maximum repeated paging number of times of Home eNodeB and to be less than or equal to and the corresponding maximum repeated paging number of times of macro base station; Perhaps, also can be provided with:
With the corresponding maximum repeated paging number of times of Home eNodeB=with the corresponding beep-page message re-transmission period of macro base station * with the corresponding maximum repeated paging number of times of macro base station/with the corresponding beep-page message re-transmission period of Home eNodeB.
Thereby when paging is positioned at the UE of coverage of Home eNodeB, reduced the beep-page message re-transmission period of user mobility management control entity transmission beep-page message, as shown in Figure 3, compared to Figure 1, it is much smaller that the user mobility management control entity sends to the beep-page message re-transmission period of beep-page message of Home eNodeB.
Beep-page message re-transmission period in the user mobility management control entity must be greater than UE from receiving beep-page message, to initiating to be linked into network, and sets up signaling with network and be connected required total duration.Because this total duration is longer in 2G and the 3G system, can arrive for 1 second, and in the present EPS system, this total duration is very little, regulation must not be greater than 50ms, and therefore, for Home eNodeB, it is feasible reducing the beep-page message re-transmission period, and is reliable.
If Period-mPaging is and the corresponding beep-page message re-transmission period of macro base station that Period-hPaging is and the corresponding beep-page message re-transmission period of Home eNodeB that then Period-hPaging is less than or equal to Period-mPaging.Same, if MaximumNo-mPaging is and the corresponding maximum repeated paging number of times of macro base station, MaximumNo-hPaging is and the corresponding maximum repeated paging number of times of Home eNodeB that then MaximumNo-hPaging is less than or equal to MaximumNo-mPaging; Perhaps:
MaximumNo-hPaging＝(Period-mPaging×MaximumNo-mPaging/Period-hPaging)。
Certainly, a simple method is:
Period-hPaging=i*Period-mPaging, wherein 0＜i＜=1;
For example, as Period-mPaging=10 during second, then desirable i=0.2, then:
Period-hPaging=0.2*Period-mPaging=0.2*10=2 second.
On specific implementation, require the user mobility management control entity to use two paging timers and two repeated paging time counter.Paging timer and repeated paging time counter only are applied to the paging of macro base station, and another paging timer and another repeated paging time counter only is applied to the paging of Home eNodeB.When the paging timer expiry, the end of a beep-page message re-transmission period of expression.
If Timer-mPaging is and the corresponding paging timer of macro base station that when Timer-mPaging started or resets, its timing value was Period-mPaging.If Timer-hPaging is and the corresponding paging timer of Home eNodeB that when Timer-hPaging started or resets, its timing value was Period-hPaging.Then because Period-hPaging is less than or equal to Period-mPaging, then the timing value of Home eNodeB paging timer Timer-hPaging is less than or equal to the timing value of macro base station paging timer Timer-mPaging.Same, if Counter-mPaging is and the corresponding repeated paging of macro base station time counter, Number-hPaging is and the corresponding repeated paging of Home eNodeB time counter, then the maximum of Home eNodeB repeated paging time counter Counter-hPaging is MaximumNo-hPaging, and the maximum of macro base station repeated paging time counter Counter-mPaging is MaximumNo-mPaging.MaximumNo-hPaging and MaximumNo-mPaging relation according to the front, the maximum that the maximum MaximumNo-hPaging that can learn Home eNodeB repeated paging time counter Counter-hPaging is less than or equal to macro base station repeated paging time counter Counter-mPaging is MaximumNo-mPaging, perhaps maximum MaximumNo-mPaging * Period-mPaging/Period-hPaging of the maximum MaximumNo-hPaging=macro base station repeated paging of Counter-hPaging time counter Counter-mPaging.
If the maximum repeated paging number of times of Home eNodeB value is 1, when then repeated paging not being carried out in the sub-district of Home eNodeB, the paging method that the embodiment of the invention provides stands good.
When user mobility management control entity during from macro base station and Home eNodeB paging simultaneously UE, if UE from the base station in response of any type paging, when then the user mobility management control entity should stop repeated paging to base station of the same type, also should stop repeated paging, promptly stop all repeated paging processes this UE to other type of base station.
For example, MME carries out paging to UE simultaneously by a plurality of eNodeB and a plurality of HeNB, when UE receives beep-page message, from eNodeB response beep-page message, and set up signaling with MME and be connected, then MME stops all repeated pagings to this UE, also must not send repeated paging message to arbitrary eNodeB again, and also must not send repeated paging message to HeNB.
Need to prove that if there is home gateway (HNB-GW or HeNB-GW) to exist between user mobility management control entity and the Home eNodeB, then beep-page message is relayed to Home eNodeB by home gateway.
Introduce respectively by Home eNodeB and the parallel paging of initiating of macro base station below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
The UE and the residing paging domain of this UE of paging need have been determined when the user mobility management control entity, and determined after the Home eNodeB and macro base station in this paging domain, by Home eNodeB and the parallel paging of initiating of macro base station, wherein, the paging of initiating by macro base station comprises as shown in Figure 4:
Steps A 1: the user mobility management control entity sends the message of paging UE to all macro base stations of determining.For 2G or 3G system, MSC/VLR or SGSN send beep-page message to base station sub-system of determining (BSS, Base-station Sub System) or RNS (RNS, Radio Network Subsystem).The LTE system is that MME sends beep-page message to the eNodeB that determines.Simultaneously, the user mobility management control entity starts macro base station paging timer Timer-mPaging, and its timing value is Period-mPaging, and the count value of macro base station repeated paging time counter Counter-mPaging is added 1.Then, these macro base station pagings UE.
Steps A 2: whether the user mobility management control entity detects two incidents and takes place, and first incident is: whether Timer-mPaging is overtime for macro base station paging timer.Illustrate then that as if overtime a beep-page message re-transmission period finishes, the page response of also not receiving UE is described, then carry out the steps A 4 of back.Second incident is: whether the user mobility management control entity has set up signaling with UE is connected.If the user mobility management control entity has been set up signaling with UE and has been connected, then carry out the steps A 3 of back.If these two incidents all take place, then whether these two incidents of user mobility management control entity continuation detection take place.
Steps A 3: because the user mobility management control entity has been set up signaling with UE and has been connected, the user mobility management control entity stops the repeated paging to UE, comprise the repeated paging that stops to Home eNodeB, promptly carry out step B6 shown in Figure 5, stop Home eNodeB paging timer Timer-hPaging, Home eNodeB paging time counter Counter-hPaging zero clearing, the Home eNodeB paging finishes.If the user mobility management control entity determines that paging domain has only macro base station not have Home eNodeB, then this step is not carried out, otherwise needs to carry out.And, need execution in step A6.
Need to prove, the user mobility management control entity has been set up signaling with UE and has been connected, might not represent that UE has responded beep-page message, possible UE is because of other reason, as send the location area updating request, initiatively the signaling of initiating connects, even like this, the user mobility management control entity is also thought the paging success, and stops the repeated paging to UE.
Steps A 4: macro base station paging timer Timer-mPaging is overtime in the user mobility management control entity, illustrates that a macro base station beep-page message re-transmission period finishes, and does not receive the page response of UE.The user mobility management control entity judges whether whether macro base station repeated paging time counter Counter-mPaging arrives the maximum repeated paging number of times of macro base station MaximumNo-mPaging, promptly equate.If do not have, then jump to steps A 1, carry out repeated paging.If the maximum repeated paging number of times of macro base station MaximumNo-mPaging arrives, the macro base station paging failure is described.
Steps A 5: the user mobility management control entity determines that macro base station repeated paging time counter Counter-mPaging has arrived the maximum repeated paging number of times of macro base station MaximumNo-mPaging, confirms the macro base station paging failure.
Steps A 6: user mobility management control entity Stop Macro base station calling timer Timer-mPaging, the macro base station repeated paging time counter Counter-mPaging that resets, i.e. zero clearing, whole macro base station paging finishes.
Set up signaling as if UE in steps A 2 with the user mobility management control entity and be connected, then user mobility management control entity and UE continue follow-up associative operation.
The paging of initiating by Home eNodeB comprises as shown in Figure 5:
Step B1: the user mobility management control entity sends the message of paging UE to all Home eNodeB of determining.For 2G or 3G system, MSC/VLR or SGSN send beep-page message to the HNB that determines, if the centre has HNB-GW to exist, then beep-page message is by being given to HNB among the HNB-GW.In the LTE system, be that MME sends beep-page message to the HeNB that determines, if the centre has HeNB-GW to exist, then beep-page message is by being given to HeNB among the HeNB-GW.Simultaneously, the user mobility management control entity starts Home eNodeB paging timer Timer-hPaging, and its timing value is Period-hPaging, and the count value of Home eNodeB repeated paging time counter Counter-hPaging is added 1.These Home eNodeB pagings UE then.
Whether step B2: detect two incidents in the user mobility management control entity and take place, first incident is: whether Timer-hPaging is overtime for Home eNodeB paging timer.If the overtime one family base station calling message re-transmission period that then illustrates finishes, and does not receive the page response of UE, then carry out the step B4 of back.Second incident is: whether the user mobility management control entity has set up signaling with UE is connected.If the user mobility management control entity has been set up being connected of signaling with UE, then carry out the step B3 of back.If these two incidents all take place, then whether these two incidents of user mobility management control entity continuation detection take place.
Step B3: because the user mobility management control entity has been set up signaling with UE and has been connected, the user mobility management control entity stops the repeated paging to UE, comprise the repeated paging that stops to macro base station, be execution in step A6, if the user mobility management control entity determines that paging domain has only Home eNodeB not have macro base station, then this steps A 6 is not carried out, otherwise needs to carry out.And, redirect execution in step B6.
Step B4: the Home eNodeB paging timer Timer-hPaging in the user mobility management control entity is overtime, illustrates that one family base station calling message re-transmission period finishes, and does not receive the page response of UE.The user mobility management control entity judges whether whether Home eNodeB repeated paging time counter Counter-hPaging arrives the maximum repeated paging number of times of Home eNodeB MaximumNo-hPaging, promptly equate.If do not have, then jump to step B1, carry out repeated paging.If the maximum repeated paging number of times of Home eNodeB MaximumNo-hPaging arrives, the Home eNodeB paging failure is described.
Step B5: the user mobility management control entity determines that Home eNodeB repeated paging time counter Counter-hPaging has arrived the maximum repeated paging number of times of family's macro base station MaximumNo-hPaging, confirms the Home eNodeB paging failure.
Step B6: the user mobility management control entity stops Home eNodeB paging timer Timer-hPaging, the Home eNodeB repeated paging time counter Counter-hPaging that resets, i.e. and zero clearing, whole Home eNodeB paging finishes.Set up signaling as if UE in step B2 with the user mobility management control entity and be connected, then user mobility management control entity and UE continue follow-up associative operation.
Need to prove that in the method for Fig. 4, if the user mobility management control entity determines that paging domain has only macro base station not have Home eNodeB, then the paging of Fig. 5 need not carried out, and the paging operation that stops Home eNodeB among Fig. 4 need not carried out yet.In like manner, if the user mobility management control entity determines that paging domain has only Home eNodeB not have macro base station, then the paging of Fig. 4 can not carried out.And the paging operation of Stop Macro base station need not carried out yet among Fig. 5.
