Description

The method for synchronous of a kind of Home eNodeB HeNB, system and equipment
Technical field
The present invention relates to communication field, relate in particular to method for synchronous, system and the equipment of a kind of Home eNodeB HeNB.
Background technology
In mobile communications network, along with the requirement to data speed and covering of growing communication, traditional provides the method for access can not meet the demands with macro base station.At present, adopt cell splitting and in hot zones or some lower powered base stations of indoor deployment such as Home (Home eNodeB), Pico (small base station), Femto (femto cell), Relay (relay station) etc. can be good at addressing this problem.These lower powered base stations are applicable under family's indoor environment, working environment or other the little overlay environment, can make operator provide and have more high data rate and more professional.
To TDD (Time Division Duplexing, time division duplex) system, how to guarantee being an important problem synchronously between the HeNB (Home eNodeB, Home eNodeB).The high precision synchronous scheme can guarantee the stabilizing effective operation of communication system, can also reduce the interference to existing macro base station.HeNB needs to register after start and synchronous process, and keeps synchronously, could provide service smoothly for user terminal.So on the basis of multilayer (multi-hop) synchronization scenario, hope can be kept under the prerequisite that guarantees synchronization accuracy synchronously as much as possible, shortens the out of alignment time of HeNB.
For HeNB synchronously, put forward following several method in the prior art:
(1) user terminal assist in synchronization: in this method, user terminal is especially at the user terminal of overlapping region, carrying out frequent measurement and information reports, keep between the base station synchronously, this scheme can realize distributed control, but the power consumption of the signaling consumption of network and user terminal all can be very big, and efficient is lower.
(2) GPS (Global Positioning System, global positioning system) is synchronous: in this method, by GPS set up between the base station synchronously, be the most frequently used method that keeps synchronous between the macro base station at present, synchronous precision is very high.Its shortcoming is: be subjected to the influence of satellite-signal power, weather and landform synchronously easily, and need equipment GPS receiver, realize that cost is higher, be not suitable for home base station network.
(3) synchronization among base stations: in this method, by the monitoring mechanism between the base station realize mutual synchronously, be that certain base station can keep synchronous by the monitoring another one CRS of synchronising base station (CommonReference Signal, public reference signal) signal.For Home eNodeB, Home eNodeB can be undertaken synchronously by the signal of macro base station around monitoring, if there is not adjacent macro base station, the signal of other synchronous Home eNodeB carries out synchronously around can monitoring, and is a kind of synchronization mechanism of layering.
At present, the scheme of above-mentioned synchronization among base stations is extensively approved at present, also is only relatively a kind of synchronization scenario concerning Home eNodeB.Consider the influence of factors such as communication environments, network topology,, can utilize the method for synchronous of multilayer (multi-hop) for the Home eNodeB that can't directly receive the macro base station signal.With networking structure shown in Figure 1 is example, and HeNB1 is synchronous with macro base station, and HeNB2 can be undertaken by HeNB1 synchronously.Defining Sync eNB among Fig. 1 (target BS synchronously) is layer 0, and the base station of utilization layer 0 is carried out synchronous base station and is layer 1 (HeNB1), and the base station of utilization layer 1 is carried out synchronous base station and is layer 2 (HeNB2), and the like.
The base station of each layer need send the information about layer, and at present, whether synchronous with eNB the base station will send the number of plies (2 bit) of this base station and information (1 bit).These information can: transmit in the MIB (MasterInformation Block, host system message block); Perhaps in SIB1 (System InformationBlock, system information block 1), transmit; Perhaps giving the subframe transmission of one deck base station configuration MBSFN (MulticastBroadcast Single Frequency Network, Multicast Broadcast Single Frequency Network) subframe to monitor synchronously down.Simultaneously, webmaster issues the configuration about the synchronous subframe of each layer.For fear of the influence for user terminal, these synchronous subframes realize by the mode of configuration MBSFN.
HeNB registers earlier after start, adjacent signal of base station around searching for then, system information by reading adjacent base station on every side or monitor layer information (2bit) and the synchronizing information (1bit) that the MBSFN subframe is obtained respective base station, according to around the layer information of all adjacent base stations, HeNB can select a minimum base station of the number of plies to carry out synchronously as the object synchronization base station.
Problems of the prior art are: for monitoring the synchronous scheme that realizes between the base station mutually, HeNB need be after the layer information of obtaining each adjacent base station one by one and synchronizing information, by relatively obtaining the minimum adjacent base station of the number of plies (number of plies=N), and carry out with it synchronously, this moment this base station number of plies=N+1.Be used to keep this synchronous base station signal if has lost the base station, can not continue synchronously to keep, then need to upgrade synchronising base station.In view of network environment becomes increasingly complex, if the adjacent area quantity of HeNB is more, the existing synchronizing information that travels through adjacent base station by eating dishes without rice or wine can expend a large amount of time and electric weight, causes the HeNB out of alignment time long, has a strong impact on user's impression.

In the embodiments of the invention three, provide the method for synchronous again after a kind of HeNB step-out.
Concrete, when certain HeNB has lost when being used to keep synchronous low one deck base station signal, can not continue synchronously to keep, then in the layer information of self maintained and synchronizing information tabulation, select number of plies minimum/or carry out synchronously with the adjacent base station of one deck with the base station (promptly keeping that synchronous low one deck base station originally) of missed synchronization.A concrete networking scene schematic diagram as shown in Figure 6, after the HeNB step-out wherein more synchronously flow process comprise:
(1) HeNB1 foundation and HeNB4's is synchronous, that is: HeNB4 is the synchronising base station of HeNB1;
(2) HeNB4 closes, cause HeNB1 to lose and HeNB4 between keep synchronous signal, HeNB1 step-out;
(3) HeNB1 searches for the layer information and the synchronizing information tabulation of the opposite equip. of self preserving, and foundation is synchronous with eNB1's.
In the embodiments of the invention four, provide a kind of HeNB initiatively to carry out synchronous method for updating.
Concrete, keep synchronously even HeNB is normal, in the layer information and synchronizing information tabulation of HeNB in self maintained, discovery has a number of plies than current when keeping the lower base station of synchronous low one deck base station number of plies, also can carry out with it reducing the number of plies of this base station synchronously.A concrete networking scene schematic diagram as shown in Figure 7, the flow process that HeNB wherein initiatively upgrades synchronously comprises:
(1) before eNB2 did not start, HeNB1 built on the synchronous of HeNB4.ENB2 starts, and sets up X2 interface with HeNB1;
(2) HeNB1 receives layer information and the synchronizing information that eNB2 sends by X2 interface (this sentences X2 interface is example), finds that the number of plies of eNB2 is lower than the number of plies of HeNB4;
(3) HeNB1 foundation and eNB2's is synchronous, and interruption and HeNB4's is synchronous.
