As seen, in the embodiment of the invention, according to the characteristics of the UE state of UMTS system, under CELL_FACH state, CELL_PCH state and URA_PCH state, UE can report network side with indication with Log, thereby makes the data that network side can reasonably be collected MDT according to the situation that UE reports.
In order more clearly to set forth the technical scheme that the embodiment of the invention provides, this MDT information processing method is discussed in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiment.The embodiment of the invention two provides a kind of MDT information processing method, among this embodiment, is example with UE for the CELL_PCH state.Suppose that the MDT of UE under the CELL_PCH state belongs to log MDT.
As shown in Figure 4, this MDT information processing method may further comprise the steps:
Step 401, UE starts the measurement of log MDT under the CELL_PCH state.
Concrete, when network had carried out log MDT configuration to UE after, UE can start the measurement of log MDT under the CELL_PCH state.
Step 402, UE sends Log to network side can be with indicating.
Concrete, when there are logged MDT data in UE during at the CELL_PCH state, then UE can send Log to network side can be with indication.
Wherein, this Log can be log available bit with indication, be used to represent whether the UE side contains logged MDT data, for example, when log available bit is 1, expression UE side contains logged MDT data, and when log available bit is 0, represents that then the UE side does not contain logged MDT data.
It should be noted that, the logged MDT data that UE exists when the CELL_PCH state, can be UE carries out log MDT under the CELLL_PCH state the resulting logged MDT of measurement data, also can be that UE is before transferring to the CELL_PCH state, at other states (for example, the CELL_FACH state) carries out the resulting logged MDT of the measurement data of log MDT, the source of these logged MDT data is not limited in the embodiment of the invention, as long as comprise (promptly existing) loggedMDT data on this UE.
In the embodiment of the invention, UE sends Log to network side can can send to network side by upstream message with indication with Log for UE with the mode of indication.Wherein, this upstream message can specifically be selected according to actual conditions, in the UE communication process different with network side, all can Log can be sent to network side with indication by upstream message.In actual applications, can Log can be sent to network side with indication, also can the redetermination upstream message Log can be sent to network side with indication based on existing communication process expansion upstream message.
For example, under the CELL_PCH state, if when cell change takes place UE, then UE can initiate CELL update process, and CELL update process schematic diagram as shown in Figure 5 comprises: (1) UE sends cell update message to network; (2) after network is received the cell update of UE, send cell update confirm (affirmation) message to UE.As can be seen, based on this CELL update process,, promptly can Log can be sent to network side with indication by cell update message by expansion upstream message cell update message.
Again for example, in CELL update process, if network (has for example carried out reprovision to the channel of UE, transmission channel reprovision etc.), then UE also can send transmission channel to network side and finish message, as shown in Figure 6 comprise the CELL update process schematic diagram that channel is finished message, comprising: (1) UE sends cell update message to network; (2) after network is received the cell update of UE, send cell updateconfirm message to UE; (3) UE sends transport channel reconfiguration complete (transmission channel is reshuffled and finished) message to network.As can be seen, based on this process, when if UE can not send to network side by cell update message with indication with Log, then UE can finish message by expansion upstream message transmission channel, promptly can finish message by transmission channel Log can be sent to network side with indication.
Again for example, in CELL update process, if when UE switches to RNC, then UE also can report the ability of UE in the mobility confirmation, as shown in Figure 7 report UE ability schematic diagram, comprising: (1) UE sends cell update message to network; (2) after network is received the cell update of UE, send cell update confirm message to UE; (3) UE sends UTRAN mobilityinformation confirm (mobility information affirmation) message to network.As can be seen, based on this process, when if UE can not send to network side by cell update message with indication with Log, then UE can promptly can send to network side with indication with Log by the mobility information acknowledge message by expansion upstream message mobility information acknowledge message.
Step 403, network side receive can be with indicating from the Log of UE.Wherein, network side will receive UE and can use indication by the Log that upstream message sends.
For example, when UE can send to network side by cell update message with indication with Log, then network side will can be used indication by cell update message sink Log.When UE finishes message Log can be sent to network side with indication by transmission channel, then network side will finish message sink Log by transmission channel can be with indication.
Step 404, network side can judge whether to obtain logged MDT data from UE according to Log with indication.If, forward step 405 to, otherwise, process ends.
Concrete, can be when receiving Log with after indicating, according to this Log can with the indication in the bit position, network side promptly can determine (for example whether have logged MDT data among the UE, when being 1, this bit position represents to exist among the UE logged MDT data), and when having logged MDT data among the UE, determine whether to obtain logged MDT data from UE according to self strategy.For example, when network side needs the current logged MDT data of UE, then determine to obtain logged MDT data from UE, if when network side does not need the current logged MDT data of UE, then determining does not need to obtain the loggedMDT data from UE.
Step 405, network side obtains logged MDT data from UE.
According to the actual needs, network side can directly obtain the loggedMDT data from UE at CELL PCH state, also can be from the CELL_PCH state transitions (for example to other states with UE, the CELL_DCH state) after, obtain logged MDT data from UE under the CELL_DCH state, this obtains in the mode embodiment of the invention of logged MDT data and repeats no more.
Below in conjunction with finish the situation of carrying log available bit in the message and in cell update message, carrying log available bit at transmission channel this MDT information processing method is further detailed.
(1) finishes at transmission channel and carry log available bit in the message
When UE is in the CELL_PCH state, after cell change takes place in UE, UE can carry out the cellupdate process, if there are the MDT log data that do not report in current UE, when the transmission channel reprovision has been carried out to UE in the base station, then UE can finish at transmission channel and carry log availablebit in the message, and the transmission channel that will carry log available bit is finished message and sent to network.After network side (for example, the base station) is received this log available bit, can determine that promptly whether forwarding UE to CELL_DCH carries out obtaining of logged MDT data.
(2) in cell update message, carry log available bit
When UE is in the CELL_PCH state, after cell change takes place in UE, UE can carry out the cellupdate process, when if there are the MDT log data that do not report in UE, then UE can carry log available bit in cell update message, and cell update message is sent to network.When network side (for example, the base station) receive this log available bit after, can determine that promptly whether forwarding UE to CELL_DCH carries out obtaining of logged MDT data, and by the indication of the state-transition among the cell update confirm, whether indication UE transfers to CELL_DCH is carried out obtaining of logged MDT data.

In the embodiment of the invention, the processing procedure of the processing procedure of step 801, step 802 and step 401, step 402 is similar, gives unnecessary details no longer in detail at this.
Concrete, when there are logged MDT data in UE during at the URA_PCH state, then UE can send Log to network side can be with indication.Be that UE can can send to network side by upstream message with indication with Log for UE with the mode of indication to network side transmission Log.
For example, under the URA_PCH state, if when cell change takes place UE, then UE can initiate URA update process, comprising: (1) UE sends URA update message to network; (2) after network is received the URA update of UE, send URA update confirm (affirmation) message to UE.As can be seen, based on this URA update process,, promptly can Log can be sent to network side with indication by URA update message by expansion upstream message URA update message.
Step 803, network side receive can be with indicating from the Log of UE.Wherein, network side will receive UE and can use indication by the Log that upstream message sends.
Step 804, network side can judge whether to obtain logged MDT data from UE according to Log with indication.If, forward step 805 to, otherwise, process ends.
Step 805, network side obtains logged MDT data from UE.
According to the actual needs, network side can directly obtain the loggedMDT data from UE at the URA_PCH state, also can be from the URA_PCH state transitions (for example to other states with UE, the CELL_DCH state) after, obtain logged MDT data from UE under the CELL_DCH state, this obtains in the mode embodiment of the invention of loggedMDT data and repeats no more.
Wherein, the processing procedure of the processing procedure of step 803-step 805 and step 403-step 405 is similar, gives unnecessary details no longer in detail at this.
Below in conjunction with the situation of in URA update message, carrying log available bit this MDT information processing method is further detailed.
When UE is in the URA_PCH state, after UE URA takes place changed, UE can carry out the URAupdate process, if when there are the MDT log data that do not report in UE, then UE can carry log available bit in URA update message, and URA update message is sent to network.When network side (for example, the base station) receive this log available bit after, can determine that promptly whether forwarding UE to CELL_DCH carries out obtaining of logged MDT data, and by the indication of the state-transition among the URA update confirm, whether indication UE transfers to CELL_DCH is carried out obtaining of logged MDT data.
As seen, in the embodiment of the invention, according to the characteristics of the UE state of UMTS system, under the URA_PCH state, UE can report network side with indication with Log, thereby makes the data that network side can reasonably be collected MDT according to the situation that UE reports.
The embodiment of the invention four provides a kind of MDT information processing method, among this embodiment, is example with UE for the CELL_FACH state.Suppose that the MDT of UE under the CELL_FACH state belongs to logMDT.
As shown in Figure 9, this MDT information processing method may further comprise the steps:
Step 901, UE starts the measurement of log MDT under the CELL_FACH state.
Step 902, UE sends Log to network side can be with indicating.
In the embodiment of the invention, the processing procedure of the processing procedure of step 901, step 902 and step 401, step 402 is similar, gives unnecessary details no longer in detail at this.
Concrete, when there are logged MDT data in UE during at the CELL_FACH state, then UE can send Log to network side can be with indication.Be that UE can can send to network side by upstream message with indication with Log for UE with the mode of indication to network side transmission Log.
Further, in the embodiment of the invention, can when state-transition from the CELL_FACH state to CELL_DCH takes place UE, Log can be sent to network side with indication by corresponding upstream message.
For example, under the CELL_FACH state, radio bearer can take place set up process (radio bearerestablishment procedure), radio bearer reconfiguration course (radio bearer reconfigurationprocedure), radio bearer dispose procedure (the radio bearer release procedure), transmission channel reconfiguration course (the transport channel reconfiguration procedure), physical channel reconfiguration course (the physical channel reconfiguration procedure), cell updating course (CELLUPDATE procedure), and in said process, the upstream message that UE promptly can expand respective process can send to network side with indication with Log.For example, can finish accordingly in the message (success message or failed message etc.) at said process and carry log available bit.
Step 903, network side receive can be with indicating from the Log of UE.
Step 904, network side can judge whether to obtain logged MDT data from UE according to Log with indication.If, forward step 905 to, otherwise, process ends.
Step 905, network side obtains logged MDT data from UE.
According to the actual needs, network side can directly obtain the loggedMDT data from UE at the CELL_FACH state, also can be from the CELL_FACH state transitions (for example to other states with UE, the CELL_DCH state) after, obtain logged MDT data from UE under the CELL_DCH state, this obtains in the mode embodiment of the invention of logged MDT data and repeats no more.
Wherein, the processing procedure of the processing procedure of step 903-step 905 and step 403-step 405 is similar, gives unnecessary details no longer in detail at this.
The situation of carrying log available bit among the transportchannel reconfiguration complete below in conjunction with the transport channel reconfiguration procedure is further detailed this MDT information processing method.
When UE is in the CELL_FACH state, if there are the MDTlog data that do not report in current UE, and this moment, reprovision was carried out to the transmission channel of UE and the base station is not transferred to the CELL_DCH state with the state of UE from CELL_FACH in the base station, then UE can carry log available bit in the transport channelreconfiguration complete, and the transport channelreconfiguration complete is sent to network side.After network side is received this log available bit, can determine that promptly whether forwarding UE to CELL_DCH carries out obtaining of logged MDT data.
Certainly, if UE transfers to CELL_DCH state with UE from CELL_FACH by the transport channel reconfiguration process, UE can carry log available with the informing network side equally in the transport channelreconfiguration complete.
In addition, it should be noted that, above-mentioned processing procedure belongs to log MDT for the MDT of hypothesis UE under the CELL_FACH state, belong to the mute state of log MDT if suppose the CELL_FACH state, just CELL_FACH is the transient state of UE, therefore, UE can (being the time that UE is in the CELL_FACH state) not trigger the measurement to MDT at during this period of time, promptly as UE during at the CELL_FACH state, UE can stop the measurement of log MDT and record, and the duration timer of the logMDT of configuration can select to continue operation or out of service according to actual needs.
Further, receive the configuration of log MDT as UE after, have only when UE transfers to other states (for example, CELL_PCH state or URA_PCH state or idle state) from CELL_FACH, just carry out the measurement of MDT.
As seen, in the embodiment of the invention, according to the characteristics of the UE state of UMTS system, under the CELL_FACH state, UE can report network side with indication with Log, thereby makes the data that network side can reasonably be collected MDT according to the situation that UE reports.
