Description

A kind of wireless communication system power-economizing method
Technical field
Patent of the present invention relates to wireless communication field, especially the power-saving technology aspect of wireless communication system.
Background technology
Over more than 200 year, along with going deep into of process of industrialization, a large amount of greenhouse gas mainly are the discharges of carbon dioxide, cause global temperature rising, weather to change, and this has been a undisputable fact.In May, 2008, Japanese Ministry of environment proposes " towards 12 action of low-carbon (LC) society ".12 action relate to dwelling house department, industrial department, traffic department, energy conversion department and relevant intersection department, each on obstacle and strategical decision thereof that all comprises following target, realizes target.The national strategy file of formal issue in British government on July 15th, 2009 " Britain's low-carbon (LC) conversion plan " by name proposes the year two thousand twenty the carbon emission amount is reduced 34% on the nineteen ninety basis, and its content relates to many aspects such as the energy, industry, traffic and house.Chinese Government promises to undertake that the year two thousand twenty per GDP carbon emission reduced 40% to 45% than 2005.Copenhagen weather summit in 2009 attempts to set up the global framework of a greenhouse gas emission, although various countries still wrestle on the reduction of discharging problem, the notion of " low-carbon (LC) " is rooted in the hearts of the people, and also is the road that the following mankind must walk.
Global information communication letter industry had been discharged about 7.5 hundred million tons of carbon dioxide altogether in 2009, the year power consumption of Communication in China industry surpasses 20,000,000,000 degree, the annual coal amount that consumes is about more than 6,750,000 tons, produce about 1,700 ten thousand tons of amount of carbon dioxide, global number of mobile phone users was expected to reach 5,000,000,000 in 2010, arrange net and the construction of next generation mobile communication make energy consumption aggravate more, the greenhouse gas emission of the mobile communications industry of bringing thus.Ministry of Industry and Information will advance communication operation enterprise energy management system construction, and actively distributed base station, communication network IPization are promoted in guiding, and base station standardized module or the like series of new techniques and new technology promote the raising of industry energy use efficiency.
The existing mobile communications system power-economizing method mainly contains and dispose to realize energy-conservationly by microcellulor, realizes energy-conservationly by adjusting the unactivated state timing, reaches energy-saving effect etc. by adjusting unused time length at interval.
Dispose to realize that by microcellulor method for saving energy considers in the mobile communication system 80% energy consumption at wireless access network, wherein energy consumption of base station is particularly crucial.Consider energy requirement, it is generally acknowledged, dispose highdensity network topology structure small-sized, low power base station and can bring powerful gain to system.In addition, because favourable path loss condition and shorter propagation distance, there is higher SINR in the zone that is covered by microcellulor.Selected suitable propagation model, base station type and power module etc. under the LTE system, by the simulating area power consumption, thus the relation optimization base station distance and the number of base stations of index such as total power consumption and number of base stations, base station distance.When guaranteeing certain regional systems throughput, can reduce the total power consumption of this area to greatest extent like this.
The above-mentioned deployment by microcellulor realizes that method for saving energy has following shortcoming.The first, need make large-scale adjustment to network design, should adjust the position of existing base station, increase new base station again.Implementation cost is too high, the energy-conservation income of bringing even can adjust the cost that network is paid less than us.The second, the deployment density of base station is high more, and the switching that the user is experienced in the process that moves increases, and the cutting off rate that brought also can increase, and influences user experience, and this is that we are unacceptable.
Reach the method for saving energy key and be when not having data to send or during reception by adjusting the unactivated state timing, releasing network resources also makes travelling carriage enter resting state to reduce transmitting power.Because travelling carriage is not always to be under the state of activation, just saved energy, but the reconstruction of a new session needs spended time, in order to make the expense minimum that rebulids connection, when travelling carriage is in resting state, come the listening paging channel with a limited power.Network is preserved the configuration information relevant with session simultaneously, does not just need to consult again and reconfigure information like this when rebuliding connection.Because the size of energy consumption depends on that travelling carriage is in the time of state of activation, it is short more that travelling carriage is in the time of state of activation, and energy consumption is just more little.Disposing a good timing length not only can optimize capacity usage ratio and can also reduce to rebuild expense.Offer on can the measurement by unactivated state timer and portable terminal for the monitoring of state of activation and to finish, this technology relates to the conversion between the various state machines.For the LTE system, three kinds of Non-Access Stratum states have been defined: state of activation, idle condition, released state.The user's power consumption that is in different conditions is different, and the user emission power that is in idle and released state is minimum, delays and rebuilds expense but can increase reconstruction when this state enters state of activation.By the selected suitable unactivated state of suitable method length regularly, it is the longest to make that travelling carriage is in time of energy saver mode, does coordination in this index between the expense with rebuilding simultaneously, in the hope of energy-conservation to greatest extent.
Reach energy-conservation scheme by the adjustment unactivated state following shortcoming is arranged.The first, this energy-saving scheme is based on travelling carriage, and the energy-saving effect that can realize is not remarkable, and the travelling carriage power consumption that is used to communicate by letter at present and few, and main consumption in recreation waited aspect other; The second, it also is that institute of LTE system is insupportable that the time delay that rebulids connection that this method is brought prolongs.
In addition, also have by adjusting the method that unused time length at interval reaches energy-saving effect
This method is that all information that will transmit are divided into energy-conservation grade, and when energy-conservation grade started, travelling carriage entered park mode to reduce transmitting power.The main purpose of this method is to make not have the maximization of the time interval of transfer of data.Unused time is defined as at interval at synchronization, does not all have the time of transfer of data in the dormant window of each different energy-conservation grades.This time interval is big more, and it is long more to mean that promptly travelling carriage is in time of resting state, and the power consumption of system is just few more like this.Three parameters of energy-conservation level setting: the initial frame number of initial dormant window, monitoring window, first dormant window.Can and improve algorithm and this be carried out emulation by Chinese remainder theorem like this, obtain the relation of institute seeking time interval with each parameter.By balance to computation complexity and performance gain, selected suitable parameters, these parameters also can be according to the situation adaptively modifying of system's reality.In order to be fit to different rates business in the LTE system, can define multiple different energy-conservation type, define different energy-conservation grades again in every type, allow system to select adaptively according to actual needs then.
Reach method for saving energy by the length of adjusting the unused time interval following shortcoming is arranged, algorithm complex is higher, especially for changeable wireless communication system, the variation of network can cause a series of changes of parameter, system takes carves adjustment self parameter to adapt to different professional qualification, is difficult to be in a stable status.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to propose a kind of energy-saving scheme of wireless communication system, efficiently solve the shortcoming of existing power-economizing method, can reduce the energy resource consumption of wireless communication system, the service quality that provides for the user is provided simultaneously, realize the target of energy-conservation, the low-carbon (LC) of wireless communication system.

3, adaptive load balancing
Load-balancing technique can guarantee that offered load reaches balanced in the base station between each wave band, and the static load balancing technique realizes by each is newly accessed terminal to be assigned on some carrier wave.But because the application data stream variation is sudden, the static load equilibrium realizes load balancing in the short time again, therefore can not satisfy the needs of this patent.And the adaptive load balancing technology makes Access Network come to each distributing carrier wave that accesses terminal according to carrier load situation, terminal stream composition and terminal capability.By adaptive load balancing, can guarantee that in the process of base station energy-saving the user is in intercarrier switching and uniform distribution load flexibly.
4, carrier intelligent turn-offs technology
The telephone traffic of wireless network every day substantially all has two notions when busy, at 10 in the morning and afternoon can occur peak value basically at 7 in when busy, and telephone traffic reaches maximum during this moment busy, and other times (such as: the 0-8 point) telephone traffic is just lower.Wireless network generally will satisfy the demand of telephone traffic when doing when doing the carrier frequency configuration, so the utilance of carrier frequency can be lower when the spare time.The carrier intelligent technology of turn-offing has been utilized this characteristic of telephone traffic just, when certain carrier frequency not during traffic carried, can reach the purpose of energy-saving and emission-reduction by the power amplifier that turn-offs this carrier frequency.
In the control that carrier frequency intelligence is turn-offed, can control: the time that carrier frequency intelligence is turn-offed can be set on time dimension, open this function such as the 0-7 point of every day from time and two dimensions of telephone traffic; On the telephone traffic dimension, when the channel occupancy number of certain sub-district is lower than some values, select an idle carrier frequency to turn-off, when the channel occupancy number of certain sub-district is higher than some values, can open the carrier frequency of a shutoff.These two dimensions can singlely be used, and also can use simultaneously.
5, alien frequencies hard-switching technology
In the energy-conservation process of base station, can carry out dynamic opening and closing to carrier wave according to the flow of base station, this just need allow the user switch at intercarrier.Alien frequencies hard-switching technology between multicarrier application at present is quite general, guarantees that the strategy and the process of intercarrier switching robustness is the expansion of the employed strategy of soft handover in essence, just solves by suitable adjustment because the problem of multicarrier generation.Alien frequencies hard-switching technology detailed process is as follows:
