Detailed Description
In order to dynamically adjust the OI threshold of a cell and avoid the phenomenon of excessive system interference or low capacity, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for adjusting the OI threshold.
Referring to fig. 2, the method for adjusting the threshold of the OI provided by the embodiment of the present invention specifically includes the following steps:
step 20: the access network equipment receives a PHR value reported by a terminal in a cell, wherein the PHR value is a difference value between the transmitting power of the terminal and an upper limit of the transmitting power calculated by the terminal; specifically, the terminal calculates the transmission power of the terminal according to the scheduling bandwidth of the access network device and the path loss of the terminal.
Step 21: and adjusting the current OI threshold of the cell according to the PHR value received in the set time period.
In step 21, a specific method for adjusting the current OI threshold of the cell according to the PHR value received in the set time period may be as follows:
step 210: counting the probability distribution of the PHR values received in a set time period, and determining whether preset OI threshold adjustment conditions are met or not according to the counting result;
step 211: and when the preset OI threshold value adjusting condition is determined to be met, adjusting the current OI threshold value of the cell according to the set OI threshold value adjusting rule.
In step 210, the probability distribution of the PHR value received within the set time period is counted, and whether the preset OI threshold adjustment condition is met is determined according to the statistical result, which may be two specific methods as follows:
the first method comprises the following steps: firstly, determining the average value of PHR values reported by a terminal in a set time period for the terminal reporting the PHR values in a cell; then, forming a Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) curve according to the determined average values, wherein a first coordinate of a point on the CDF curve is a PHR value, and a second coordinate is a proportion of the number of terminals with the PHR value less than or equal to the PHR value to the total number of terminals reporting the PHR value in a cell; and finally, determining a first coordinate value of a point on the CDF curve, wherein the second coordinate value is a first set numerical value, comparing the first coordinate value with a preset first PHR threshold value, and if the comparison result shows that the first coordinate value is inconsistent with the first PHR threshold value, determining that the preset OI threshold value adjustment condition is met. The first coordinate on the CDF curve may range from [ -23, 40 ]. The values of the first set value and the first PHR threshold may be set according to factors such as user satisfaction expected by the system, for example, if the user satisfaction expected by the system is 5% and the PHR value of the user is below 5dB, then the first set value may be set to 5% and the first PHR threshold is 5 dB.
Correspondingly, the method for adjusting the current OI threshold of the cell, namely the OI threshold adjustment rule, is as follows: if the first coordinate value is smaller than the first PHR threshold value, the current OI threshold value of the cell is reduced; if the first coordinate value is larger than the first PHR threshold value, the current OI threshold value of the cell is increased. Preferably, before the current OI threshold of the cell is turned down, it is determined whether the first coordinate value is smaller than a second PHR threshold, and when the first coordinate value is smaller than the second PHR threshold, the current OI threshold of the cell is turned down. Similarly, before increasing the current OI threshold of the cell, it is determined whether the first coordinate value is greater than a second PHR threshold, and when the first coordinate value is greater than the second PHR threshold, the current OI threshold of the cell is increased, and the second PHR threshold may be greater than or equal to the first PHR threshold.
And the second method comprises the following steps: firstly, determining the average value of PHR values reported by a terminal in a set time period for the terminal reporting the PHR values in a cell; then, forming an inverse cumulative distribution function (CCDF) curve according to the determined average values, wherein a first coordinate of a point on the CCDF curve is a PHR value, and a second coordinate is a proportion of the number of terminals with the PHR value larger than the PHR value to the total number of terminals reporting the PHR value in a cell; and finally, determining a first coordinate value of a point on the CCDF curve, wherein the second coordinate value of the point is a second set numerical value, comparing the first coordinate value with a preset third PHR threshold value, and if the comparison result shows that the first coordinate value is inconsistent with the third PHR threshold value, determining that the preset OI threshold value adjustment condition is met. The first coordinate on the CCDF curve may take on a range of [ -23, 40 ]. The values of the second set value and the third PHR threshold may also be set according to factors such as user satisfaction expected by the system, and the values of the second set value may be: (1-first set value), for example, the PHR value of 5% of users with the system expected user satisfaction is below 5dB, then the second set value may be set to 1-5%, i.e., 95%, and the third PHR threshold value is 5 dB.
Correspondingly, the method for adjusting the current OI threshold of the cell, namely the OI threshold adjustment rule, is as follows: if the first coordinate value is smaller than the third PHR threshold value, the current OI threshold value of the cell is increased; if the first coordinate value is larger than the third PHR threshold value, the current OI threshold value of the cell is adjusted to be low. Preferably, before increasing the current OI threshold of the cell, it is determined whether the first coordinate value is smaller than a fourth PHR threshold, and when the first coordinate value is smaller than the fourth PHR threshold, the current OI threshold of the cell is increased. Similarly, before the current OI threshold of the cell is turned down, it is determined whether the first coordinate value is greater than a fourth PHR threshold, and when the first coordinate value is greater than the fourth PHR threshold, the current OI threshold of the cell is turned down, and the fourth PHR threshold may be greater than or equal to the third PHR threshold.
In the two modes, when the first coordinate is a transverse coordinate, the second coordinate is a longitudinal coordinate; when the first coordinate is a vertical coordinate, the second coordinate is a horizontal coordinate.
The reason why the above two ways are true is explained as follows: in the LTE system, since the PHR reflects the difference between the maximum transmission capability of the terminal and the power used for actual transmission of the UE, the statistics of the PHR of each UE in the cell can be used to evaluate whether the OI threshold is set reasonably. The PHR value of the cell edge user is usually maintained at a lower level within the allowed uplink interference tolerance, and the PHR level of the cell edge user can be measured by the PHR level at the worst x% (e.g., 5%) of the statistical distribution of the PHR of the cell. On the other hand, the setting of the OI threshold directly affects the reporting level of the PHR value, such as: if the threshold of OI in a certain cell is set low, OI is easily indicated as "high" and should be avoided when allocating resources, resulting in a large residual of the UE's transmission capability due to the fact that the UE has no resources selected or needs to reduce power transmission on the selected resources, especially for edge UEs. The two modes are reasonable in combination.
Certainly, the implementation manner of step 210 is not limited to the above two, and other various manners may also be adopted, for example, after determining the average value of the PHR values reported by each terminal in a set time period, a histogram is formed according to the determined average value, where the histogram represents the ratio of the number of terminals whose PHR values are a certain PHR value to the total number of terminals reporting PHR values in a cell; and then, the proportion of the terminals with the third PHR threshold value to the total number of the terminals reporting the PHR value in the cell is obtained through accumulation calculation, the proportion value is determined to be compared with a preset third set numerical value, if the proportion value is smaller than the third set numerical value, the current OI threshold value of the cell is adjusted to be low, and if the proportion value is larger than the third set numerical value, the current OI threshold value of the cell is adjusted to be high. And so on.
Moreover, the implementation manner of adjusting the current OI threshold of the cell in step 21 is not limited to the manner described in step 210 to step 211, and other various manners may also be used, for example, a most recently received PHR value is selected from PHR values received within a set time period, the PHR value is compared with a preset PHR threshold, if the PHR value is greater than the PHR threshold, the current OI threshold is adjusted down, and if the PHR value is less than the PHR threshold, the current OI threshold is adjusted up. For another example, an average value of the PHR values received within the set time period is calculated, the average value is compared with a preset PHR threshold, if the average value is larger than the PHR threshold, the current OI threshold is adjusted to be lower, and if the average value is smaller than the PHR threshold, the current OI threshold is adjusted to be higher. Any method for adjusting the threshold of the OI according to the PHR value reported by the terminal can achieve the purpose of the invention and is within the protection scope of the invention.
Preferably, in order to make the OI threshold adjustment decision more accurate, after the access network device determines that preset OI threshold adjustment conditions are met and before the current OI threshold of the cell is adjusted, the access network device sends OI threshold adjustment decision information made according to the set OI threshold adjustment rule to an operation and maintenance (O & M) device to which the access network device belongs; the operation maintenance equipment acquires cell related information, makes a new OI threshold adjustment decision according to the cell related information and OI threshold adjustment decision information sent by the access network equipment, and sends the new OI threshold adjustment decision information to the access network equipment; and the access network equipment adjusts the decision information according to the OI threshold value sent by the operation maintenance equipment, and adjusts the current OI threshold value of the cell. Here, the cell-related information includes: the terminal distribution information in the cell, the service load information of the cell adjacent to the cell, and the interference tolerance of the cell adjacent to the cell. And the service load information of the adjacent cell and the interference tolerance of the adjacent cell are the adjacent cell related information of the cell. This is illustrated below:
the first embodiment is as follows: and the O & M equipment makes a new OI threshold value adjustment decision according to the terminal distribution information in the current cell and the OI threshold value adjustment decision information sent by the access network equipment.
Specifically, if the adjustment decision of the OI threshold sent by the access network equipment is to reduce the current OI threshold of the cell, judging whether the proportion of the number of terminals currently located in the edge area of the cell to the total number of terminals in the cell exceeds a preset proportion threshold; when the proportion of the number of terminals in the edge area of the cell to the total number of terminals in the cell does not exceed the preset proportion threshold, making a new decision for adjusting the OI threshold as follows: adjusting the current OI threshold of the cell to be low; if the ratio of the number of terminals in the edge area of the cell to the total number of terminals in the cell exceeds the preset ratio threshold, it indicates that most of the UEs in the cell are concentrated on the edge, and the cause of the low PHR distribution level may be the location distribution of the UEs, and then a new OI threshold adjustment decision is made: the OI threshold is not adjusted.
If the adjustment decision of the OI threshold sent by the access network equipment is to increase the current OI threshold of the cell, judging whether the proportion of the number of terminals currently positioned in the central area of the cell to the total number of terminals in the cell exceeds a preset proportion threshold or not; when the proportion of the number of terminals in the central area of the cell to the total number of terminals in the cell does not exceed the preset proportion threshold, making a new decision for adjusting the OI threshold as follows: the current OI threshold of the cell is adjusted to be high; if the ratio of the number of terminals in the central area to the total number of terminals in the cell exceeds the preset ratio threshold, it indicates that most of the UEs in the cell are concentrated in the center, and the reason that the PHR distribution level is high may be due to the location distribution of the UEs, and then a new decision for adjusting the OI threshold is made as follows: the OI threshold is not adjusted.
Example two: and the O & M equipment makes a new OI threshold value adjustment decision according to the service load information of the cell and the OI threshold value adjustment decision information sent by the access network equipment.
Specifically, when the OI threshold adjustment decision sent by the access network device is to adjust the current OI threshold of the cell up or down, it is determined whether the service load of the current cell is within a preset load threshold, and if so, a new OI threshold adjustment decision is made as follows: adjusting the current OI threshold of the cell to be high or low; otherwise, a new OI threshold adjustment decision is made as: for example, the OI threshold adjustment decision information sent by the access network equipment includes the OI threshold adjustment range that the OI threshold is adjusted from the original 8db to 5db, and the new OI threshold adjustment decision may adjust the OI threshold from the original 8db to 6 db.
And thirdly, the O & M equipment makes a new OI threshold adjustment decision according to the service load information of the adjacent cell and the OI threshold adjustment decision information sent by the access network equipment.
Specifically, when the OI threshold adjustment decision sent by the access network device is to adjust the current OI threshold of the cell up or down, it is determined whether the service load of the neighboring cell of the current cell is within a preset load threshold, and if so, a new OI threshold adjustment decision is made as follows: adjusting the current OI threshold of the cell to be high or low; otherwise, a new OI threshold adjustment decision is made as: not adjusting the OI threshold or changing the magnitude of adjusting the OI threshold.
Example four: and the O & M device makes a new OI threshold value adjustment decision according to the interference tolerance of the adjacent cell and the OI threshold value adjustment decision information sent by the access network device.
Specifically, when the OI threshold adjustment decision sent by the access network device is to adjust the current OI threshold of the cell up or down, it is determined whether the OI threshold adjusted according to the OI threshold adjustment decision sent by the access network device does not exceed an interference tolerance (IoT) value of the neighboring cell, and if so, a new OI threshold adjustment decision is made: adjusting the current OI threshold of the cell to be high or low; otherwise, a new OI threshold adjustment decision is made as: not adjusting the OI threshold or changing the magnitude of adjusting the OI threshold.
The access network equipment may send the probability distribution statistical result of the PHR value to the operation and maintenance equipment to which the access network equipment belongs after determining that the preset OI threshold adjustment condition is met and before adjusting the current OI threshold of the cell; the operation maintenance equipment acquires cell related information, makes an OI threshold value adjustment decision according to the cell related information and the statistical result of the probability distribution, and sends the OI threshold value adjustment decision information to access network equipment; and the access network equipment adjusts the current OI threshold of the cell according to the OI threshold adjustment decision information sent by the operation maintenance equipment. Here, the cell-related information includes: the terminal distribution information in the cell, the service load information of the cell adjacent to the cell, and the interference tolerance of the cell adjacent to the cell. And the service load information of the adjacent cell and the interference tolerance of the adjacent cell are the adjacent cell related information of the cell. This is illustrated below:
example five: and the O & M equipment makes OI threshold value adjustment decision according to the probability distribution statistical result of the PHR value and the terminal distribution information in the current cell.
Specifically, if the current OI threshold of the cell needs to be reduced according to the probability distribution statistical result of the PHR value, whether the proportion of the number of terminals currently located in the edge area of the cell to the total number of terminals in the cell exceeds a preset proportion threshold is judged; when the proportion of the number of terminals in the edge area of the cell to the total number of terminals in the cell does not exceed the preset proportion threshold, making an OI threshold adjustment decision as follows: adjusting the current OI threshold of the cell to be low; if the ratio of the number of terminals in the edge area of the cell to the total number of terminals in the cell exceeds the preset ratio threshold, it is indicated that most of the UEs in the cell are concentrated on the edge, and the reason that the PHR distribution level is low may be due to the location distribution of the UEs, and then the OI threshold adjustment decision is made as follows: the OI threshold is not adjusted.
If the current OI threshold value of the cell needs to be increased according to the probability distribution statistical result of the PHR value, judging whether the proportion of the number of terminals currently positioned in the central area of the cell to the total number of terminals in the cell exceeds a preset proportion threshold value or not; when the proportion of the number of terminals in the central area of the cell to the total number of terminals in the cell does not exceed a preset proportion threshold, making an OI threshold adjustment decision as follows: the current OI threshold of the cell is adjusted to be high; if the ratio of the number of terminals in the central area to the total number of terminals in the cell exceeds a preset ratio threshold, it indicates that most of the UEs in the cell are concentrated in the center, and the reason that the PHR distribution level is high may be due to the location distribution of the UEs, and then, an OI threshold adjustment decision is made as follows: the OI threshold is not adjusted.
Example six: and the O & M equipment makes OI threshold value adjustment decision according to the probability distribution statistical result of the PHR value and the service load information of the cell.
Specifically, when determining that the current OI threshold of the cell needs to be adjusted up or down according to the probability distribution statistical result of the PHR value, judging whether the service load of the current cell is within a preset load threshold, if so, making an OI threshold adjustment decision as follows: adjusting the current OI threshold of the cell to be high or low; otherwise, an OI threshold adjustment decision is made as: not adjusting the OI threshold or changing the magnitude of adjusting the OI threshold.
And seventhly, the O & M equipment makes OI threshold value adjustment decision according to the probability distribution statistical result of the PHR value and the service load information of the adjacent cell.
Specifically, when determining that the current OI threshold of a cell needs to be adjusted up or down according to the probability distribution statistical result of the PHR value, determining whether the service load of the neighboring cell of the current cell is within a preset load threshold, if so, making an OI threshold adjustment decision as follows: adjusting the current OI threshold of the cell to be high or low; otherwise, an OI threshold adjustment decision is made as: not adjusting the OI threshold or changing the magnitude of adjusting the OI threshold.
Example eight: and the O & M equipment makes OI threshold adjustment decision according to the probability distribution statistical result of the PHR value and the interference tolerance of the adjacent cell.
Specifically, when determining that the current OI threshold of the cell needs to be adjusted up or down according to the probability distribution statistical result of the PHR value, determining whether the OI threshold adjusted according to the probability distribution statistical result does not exceed an interference tolerance (IoT) value of an adjacent cell, if so, making an OI threshold adjustment decision as follows: adjusting the current OI threshold of the cell to be high or low; otherwise, an OI threshold adjustment decision is made as: not adjusting the OI threshold or changing the magnitude of adjusting the OI threshold.
Preferably, in order to make an OI threshold adjustment decision more accurately, before counting the PHR values received within the set time period, the PHR value reported by the terminal located in the cell edge area and/or the terminal whose service request bandwidth meets the preset bandwidth requirement may be selected from the PHR values received within the set time period, and then the probability distribution of the selected PHR value may be counted.
For the UE closer to the access network device, the reported PHR value is usually a positive value due to its smaller path loss, and the reported PHR values of these UEs cannot directly indicate whether the OI threshold is set to be appropriate, so that when the probability distribution of the PHR value is counted, only the PHR reported by the edge user can be counted. Moreover, when the probability distribution of the PHR value is counted, the situation that the service request bandwidth of the UE is very small and the edge user does not need to use all the transmission power of the UE may occur, and the PHR value at this time cannot be used to reflect whether the setting of the OI threshold is reasonable or not, so when the probability distribution of the PHR value is counted, the PHR value in such a scenario may be removed.
Preferably, before the OI threshold adjustment decision information made by the operation maintenance equipment to which the access network equipment belongs is sent to the access network equipment, the operation maintenance equipment sends the OI threshold adjustment decision information to other operation maintenance equipment; and the other operation and maintenance equipment determines whether the OI threshold is allowed to be adjusted or not according to the received OI threshold adjustment decision information, the service load information, the interference tolerance and the like of the cell managed by the operation and maintenance equipment, and the operation and maintenance equipment to which the access network equipment belongs sends the OI threshold adjustment decision information to the access network equipment when the other operation and maintenance equipment allows the OI threshold to be adjusted.
The OI threshold adjustment decision information includes adjustment decision information (e.g., adjusted up or down), OI threshold adjustment magnitude information (e.g., adjusted up by 5db or adjusted down by 5db), and so on. The specific method for determining whether to allow adjustment of the OI threshold value according to the OI threshold value adjustment decision information and the service load information by other operation and maintenance devices is to judge whether to influence cells managed by other operation and maintenance devices after adjusting the OI threshold value according to the OI threshold value adjustment amplitude information in the OI threshold value adjustment decision information, if so, not allow adjustment of the OI threshold value, and otherwise, allow adjustment of the OI threshold value. The judgment whether the influence on the cells managed by other operation and maintenance equipment is generated can be determined according to a preset judgment rule.

and a second operation and maintenance device 33, configured to determine whether to allow adjustment of the current OI threshold of the cell according to the OI threshold adjustment decision information sent by the first operation and maintenance device and the traffic load information of the cell managed by the second operation and maintenance device.
The invention is described in the following with reference to the above system in a specific embodiment:
the first embodiment is as follows:
referring to FIG. 4A, in this embodiment, O is not required&M participates, and the OI threshold value adjusting process is only completed in the base station; the base station of the cell has set a PHR threshold value TH according to the uplink IoTPHR,THPHRThe setting principle of (2) is to ensure that only no more than 5% of UEs in the system do not meet the requirement of the uplink IoT, specifically as follows:
step S01: the base station receives PHR values reported by UE in a cell within 1 day by taking 1 day as a statistical period;
step S02: the base station performs PHR smoothing for each UE, specifically, if the UE is configured to perform PHR smoothingiIf the number of reporting PHR values in the statistical period is N, the average value of all PHR values reported by the UE can be calculated by the following formula:
step S03, the base station performs PHR reporting statistics, specifically, the average value of the PHR values of the UE obtained by calculation is sorted and accumulated according to the sequence from big to small to form a CDF curve, and an abscissa value PHR0 of a point with an ordinate value of 5% on the CDF curve is determined;
step S04: PHR0 is compared with a predetermined threshold value THPHRAnd comparing, and if the comparison results are not consistent, adjusting the OI threshold. Specifically, if PHR0 > THPHRIf the OI threshold of the cell is set too low, then TH1 and TH2 are adjusted up according to a certain rule, for example, TH1 and TH2 are adjusted so that TH1 is TH1+1dB, and TH2 is TH2+2 dB; or TH1 ═ TH1+1/4 ═ TH (TH)PHR-PHR0),TH2=TH2+1/2*(THPHR-PHR0)。
Example two:
referring to fig. 4B, in this embodiment, the OI threshold is adjusted based on the PHR value reported by the cell edge user, and the adjustment of the OI threshold needs the participation of O & M, which is specifically as follows:
step S11: setting a statistical period timer to be 1 week, and receiving a PHR value reported by UE in a cell before the timer is overtime; and after receiving the PHR value reported by the UE, distinguishing whether the UE is a cell center user or a cell edge user according to the current state information of the UE. If the UE is a cell center user, the PHR value reported by the UE at this time is not stored, and meanwhile, a PHR reporting frequency counter is not accumulated; and if the UE is a cell edge user, storing the PHR value reported by the UE this time, and accumulating a PHR reporting frequency counter.
Step S12: after the timer of the statistical period is overtime, performing PHR smoothing on each UE, wherein the specific manner may be the same as that in embodiment 1;
step S13: performing PHR reporting statistics by the base station, specifically, sequencing and accumulating the average values of PHR values of the UE obtained by calculation when the PHR reporting is smooth according to the sequence from large to small to form a CDF curve, and determining an abscissa value PHR0 of a point on the CDF curve, wherein the ordinate value of the point is 20%; PHR0 is compared with a predetermined threshold value THPHRComparing and reporting the comparison result to O& M;
Step S14: and the O & M determines whether to adjust the current OI threshold of the cell and the adjustment amplitude according to the result reported by the base station and the related information such as the service load, the interference tolerance and the like of the adjacent cell, informs the base station of the OI adjustment decision result, and the base station adjusts the OI threshold according to the received notice.
Example three:
referring to fig. 4C, in this embodiment, OI threshold adjustment decision information needs to be interacted between different O & M, which is specifically as follows:
step S21-step S23: the same as the steps S11 to S13;
step S24: the O & M decides according to the result reported by the base station and simultaneously combines the service load, the interference tolerance and other related information of the adjacent cell, determines whether to adjust the current cell and the adjustment amplitude, and sends the OI threshold adjustment decision information to another O & M when determining that the OI threshold needs to be adjusted;
step S25: after receiving the OI threshold adjustment decision information, the other O & M determines whether the O & M which transmits the OI threshold adjustment decision information is allowed to perform OI threshold adjustment or not according to the OI threshold adjustment decision information and the service load information of the cell managed by the O & M, and transmits a determination result to the O & M;
step S26: if the O & M receives a notice which is sent by another O & M and allows the O & M to adjust the OI threshold value, adjusting the current OI threshold value of the cell; and if the O & M receives a notice which is sent by another O & M and does not allow the O & M to adjust the OI threshold value, the O & M does not adjust the OI threshold value.
