The embodiment of the invention one provides the method for determining the terminal measuring frequency in the switching of a kind of sub-district, and referring to Fig. 1, described method comprises:
11: when terminal from Serving cell when Target cell moves, when obtaining terminal first fit switching condition, the base station of distance service sub-district evolution (evolved Node Base, first distance eNB); And,
12: the critical distance of obtaining terminal distance service sub-district eNB, described critical distance satisfies following condition: the location point of terminal distance service sub-district eNB critical distance is the critical localisation point, terminal can receive the switching command that service cell eNB issues at described critical localisation point, and then can't receive the switching command that service cell eNB issues from described critical localisation point when Target cell moves when terminal;
13: utilize the difference of the described critical distance and first distance to calculate the switching coverage;
14: the measuring frequency of determining terminal according to described switching coverage.
Above-mentioned terminal can for subscriber equipment (User Equipment, UE), the distance of the above-mentioned first distance expression UE distance service center of housing estate (perhaps signal emitting-source), at this, the distance of getting UE distance service sub-district eNB is as first distance.
As seen by above-mentioned, the embodiment of the invention provides a kind of scheme of definite terminal measuring frequency by analysing in depth the characteristics of terminal sub-district switching flow, has optimized the measuring frequency of terminal.The technical program has taken into full account the influence of network side to the terminal measuring frequency in conjunction with the handoff scenario of reality, based on terminal path loss for network side in switch the sub-district, pairing switching coverage when computing terminal can successful switch on its mobile alignment, utilize this switching coverage to choose a suitable measuring frequency, reached the technique effect that under the situation that guarantees the sub-district handover success rate, reduces the measuring frequency of terminal as much as possible for terminal.
For the technical scheme of various embodiments of the present invention clearly is described, below some the corresponding technology features in the handoff scenario of sub-district are described.Referring to Fig. 2, comprise the steps:
21:eNB sends Radio Resource control to UE, and (Radio Resource Control, RRC) line is reset (Connection-Reconfiguration) message.
ENB resets message by above-mentioned RRC line and measures the relevant parameter of control to terminal configuration, comprises the measurement Control Parameter of the A3 incident of the 3rd layer (L3) in these parameters.
22:UE is passed to ground floor (L1) with the part correlation parameter of L3.
Because L1 can't directly resolve the parameter of L3, so be passed to L1 after needing UE that the parameter of the L3 such as measurement Control Parameter of A3 incident is resolved.
23:UE measures the power of detected sub-district in the cell switch process, obtains measured value.
Because the complexity of practical radio communication environment, bigger fluctuation may take place to the measurement of sub-district in UE, in this case, if measured value is not smoothly converted and may impact normal switching, so need realize the level and smooth of measured value by filtering.
24:UE filters measured value at L1.
25:UE filters measured value at L3.
A kind of mode of above-mentioned filter operation can be calculated for utilizing former measured value and the measured value that obtains recently to carry out arithmetic average.
26: when measured value the reporting when all satisfying report condition in the time interval of regulation, UE sends measurement report (MeasurementReport) to eNB, will report eNB through the measured value after the smoothing processing.
27:eNB initiates the switching of UE to Target cell according to measurement report.
Determine that the method for terminal measuring frequency is specifically described during switch the sub-district that the embodiment of the invention two is provided below.Referring to Fig. 3, be that example is described with the UE scene that (CELL) 1 moves to sub-district 2 from the sub-district.Fig. 3 is a kind of schematic diagram of simplification, wherein, the coverage of representing sub-district 1 and sub-district 2 with two circles with same radius L respectively, distance between the eNB 1 of sub-district 1 and the eNB2 of sub-district 2 is d, and the lap among Fig. 3 between two circles is represented the common zone that covers between sub-district 1 and the sub-district 2.The dotted line that has arrow among Fig. 3 is represented the movement locus of UE.Specifically comprise following processing:
11: when UE from Serving cell (as sub-district 1) when Target cell (as sub-district 2) is mobile, when obtaining UE first fit switching condition, first distance of the base station eNB of distance service sub-district evolution.
In embodiments of the present invention, adopted a kind of method from the UE measuring frequency to the measurement side-play amount of UE configuration that utilize path loss and eNB to optimize, at this, above-mentioned switching condition be the difference of signal power value of the Serving cell that receives of signal power value and the UE of the Target cell that receives of UE more than or equal to predetermined threshold, described predetermined threshold is that service cell eNB is to the A3 of UE configuration measurement deviant O
FfAt this moment, step 11 can be specially: the difference of the signal power value of the Serving cell that the signal power value of the Target cell that receives as UE and UE receive is during first more than or equal to described A3 measurement deviant, and UE obtains first distance of distance service sub-district eNB.
The signal power of the sub-district that UE receives is from factor decisions such as the receiving antenna gain of the transmitter antenna gain (dBi) of the distance of eNB, eNB, UE and operation wavelengths by the transmission signal power of eNB, UE, for example, when UE when the distance of eNB is r, the received signal power of UE can be expressed as formula:
Wherein, P

2The receiving antenna gain of expression UE.
In the application scenarios of reality, because the complexity of wireless environment, actual received signal power also may be not exclusively by parameters such as distance, antenna gain and the operation wavelength decision of above-mentioned UE from the base station, for example, local geographical environment has also caused bigger influence to the signal power value, at this moment, can carry out suitable adjustment according to real situation.
Calculate the signal power value of the Serving cell that UE receives and the signal power value of the Target cell that UE receives by following formula (2) and (3), and judge whether to satisfy switching condition according to this signal power value.When satisfying switching condition, calculate the distance of UE distance service sub-district eNB1, because the position of eNB is fixed, so UE can be by the own distance from eNB of known information acquisition, for example, UE can pass through global positioning system, and (Global Positioning System GPS) obtains the positional information of self, thereby calculates above-mentioned first distance; Perhaps, UE utilizes the distance measurement function of configuration on it to obtain above-mentioned first distance according to the wireless signal of receiving and dispatching between itself and the eNB1.
According to foregoing, then there is following formula:
Wherein, P
R1The signal power value of the sub-district 1 that expression UE receives, x
1Expression UE is apart from the distance of sub-district 1, P
R2The signal power value of the sub-district 2 that expression UE receives, x
2Expression UE is apart from the distance of sub-district 2.
The difference of then working as the signal power value of sub-district 1 and sub-district 2 equals A3 and measures deviant O
FfThe time, can access following formula:
Can obtain:
The track of the residing location point of UE in the time of can being obtained to satisfy switching condition for the first time by above-mentioned formula (5) is expressed as the A point with this location point, promptly the A point be UE from Serving cell apart from x
1With UE from adjacent sub-district apart from x
2Distance satisfy the point at equation (5) place, at this moment, UE obtain from service cell eNB 1 first apart from x
1Referring to Fig. 3, some A represent UE from sub-district 1 to the process that move sub-district 2, an example of present location point during the first fit switching condition on a certain specific movement locus.
12: the critical distance of obtaining UE distance service sub-district eNB, described critical distance satisfies following condition: the location point of UE distance service sub-district eNB critical distance is the critical localisation point, UE can receive the switching command that service cell eNB issues at described critical localisation point, and then can't receive the switching command that service cell eNB issues from described critical localisation point when Target cell moves as UE.
Above-mentioned critical distance is UE maximum distance apart from eNB1 can receive the switching command that service cell eNB 1 issues the time.

13: utilize the difference of the described critical distance and first distance to calculate the switching coverage.
Obtain first apart from x by above-mentioned steps
1With critical distance y, by (y-x
1) obtain above-mentioned switching coverage.Be appreciated that and weighted value or side-play amount also can be set when needing (y-x

14: the measuring frequency of determining UE according to described switching coverage.
At this, only according to one-shot measurement report the carrying out switch decision of UE, i.e. the scene that switching occurs in after the one-shot measurement report describes with eNB, and hence one can see that will make handover success satisfy:
RT<(y-x1) (7)
Wherein, R represents the movement velocity of UE, and R can be the equivalent uniform motion speed of UE when UE does variable motion.
Promptly in the common area of coverage of cell1 and cell2, that satisfies switching condition on the specific mobile alignment of UE has only x1 to segment distance so between the y.
If UE measures and belongs to rational situation n time satisfying reporting in the time interval of switching condition, just Ci Shi measurement curve can make measured value smoothly can react the power contrast of each sub-district again really, then according to effectively switching distance (y-x1) and reasonably measuring the measuring frequency that frequency n can be determined to draw more energy-conservation, a saving resource and can guarantee handover success rate.

When the measuring frequency of choosing satisfies formula (8), just can avoid the too frequent measurement of UE, to the also reduction accordingly of performance requirement of UE.And from above-mentioned formula (8) also as can be seen, the performance of the terminal that places one's entire reliance upon determines that measuring frequency is irrational, and measuring frequency is not only to be determined by UE itself.
During actual the use, can provide a series of available n values, UE selects different n according to the channel circumstance of this concrete scene then according to the weak value of the concrete channel of measuring of former Serving cell.
When the measuring frequency to above-mentioned UE is optimized, suppose that usually T is constant.Yet further, this method embodiment can also be optimized to the time interval T that reports of UE configuration eNB according to the technical program.By above-mentioned analysis as can be known, T must move to this section period of y from x1 less than UE, if T can't realize successfully that greater than this time UE the sub-district switches.Like this, if under certain scene the frequent handoff failure of UE and when causing call drop, then eNB must consider to revise handoff parameter, this wherein just comprises T and O

For example, can according to switching coverage service cell eNB be adjusted to the time interval that reports of UE configuration based on following formula:
