Mode two: as shown in Figure 7, the third method of upgrading adjacent area attribute of the embodiment of the present invention comprises the following steps:
Step 701, RN equipment, after defining new adjacent area, send new NRT to O & M equipment.
Step 702, O & M equipment, according to the new NRT receiving, are determined new adjacent area, and are returned to adjacent area attribute information corresponding to this adjacent area.
Step 703, RN equipment, after the adjacent area attribute information of receiving from O & M equipment, upgrade the adjacent area attribute information of RN device storage.
Step 704, RN equipment send new neighboring BS relationship to the base station under RN equipment.
Step 705, base station is according to the new neighboring BS relationship of receiving, upgrade the neighboring BS relationship that preserve base station, determining when new adjacent area is set up X2 and is connected, to adjacent area, send config update information indication adjacent area and carry out cell update, determining when new adjacent area is not set up X2 and is connected, new neighboring BS relationship is sent to O & M equipment, and according to the adjacent area attribute information from O & M equipment of receiving, determine after new adjacent area support X2 interface, setting up X2 with new adjacent area is connected, to adjacent area, send config update information indication adjacent area and carry out cell update.
Mode three: as shown in Figure 8, the 4th kind of method of upgrading adjacent area attribute of the embodiment of the present invention comprises the following steps:
Step 801, RN equipment send new NRT defining new Hou,Xiang base station, adjacent area.
Step 802, base station send new neighboring BS relationship to O & M equipment.
Step 803, O & M equipment, according to the new NRT receiving, are determined new adjacent area, and are returned to adjacent area attribute information corresponding to this adjacent area.
Step 804, base station send to RN equipment by the adjacent area attribute information from O & M equipment of receiving.
Step 805, RN equipment, according to receiving adjacent area attribute information, upgrade the adjacent area attribute information of RN device storage.
Step 806, base station is according to the new neighboring BS relationship of receiving, upgrade the neighboring BS relationship that preserve base station, determining when new adjacent area is set up X2 and is connected, to adjacent area, send config update information indication adjacent area and carry out cell update, determining when new adjacent area is not set up X2 and is connected, new neighboring BS relationship is sent to O & M equipment, and according to the adjacent area attribute information from O & M equipment of receiving, determine after new adjacent area support X2 interface, setting up X2 with new adjacent area is connected, to adjacent area, send config update information indication adjacent area and carry out cell update.
Wherein, step 806 does not have fixing sequential relationship with step 804,805, can first perform step 804,805 as required, then perform step 806; Can also first perform step 806, then perform step 804 and 805; Can also perform step 804 and 805 simultaneously.
Further, the neighboring BS relationship that preserve the renewal base station in step 806 can be carried out in step 802.
If in step 805, in the neighbor cell configuration information that RN equipment is received, there is no whole new adjacent areas, RN equipment can continue to wait for the neighbor cell configuration information from base station.
Those skilled in the art should understand, embodiments of the invention can be provided as method, system or computer program.Therefore, the present invention can adopt complete hardware implementation example, implement software example or in conjunction with the form of the embodiment of software and hardware aspect completely.And the present invention can adopt the form that wherein includes the upper computer program of implementing of computer-usable storage medium (including but not limited to magnetic disc store, CD-ROM, optical memory etc.) of computer usable program code one or more.
The present invention is with reference to describing according to flow chart and/or the block diagram of the method for the embodiment of the present invention, equipment (system) and computer program.Should understand can be in computer program instructions realization flow figure and/or block diagram each flow process and/or the flow process in square frame and flow chart and/or block diagram and/or the combination of square frame.Can provide these computer program instructions to the processor of all-purpose computer, special-purpose computer, Embedded Processor or other programmable data processing device to produce a machine, the instruction of carrying out by the processor of computer or other programmable data processing device is produced for realizing the device in the function of flow process of flow chart or a plurality of flow process and/or square frame of block diagram or a plurality of square frame appointments.
These computer program instructions also can be stored in energy vectoring computer or the computer-readable memory of other programmable data processing device with ad hoc fashion work, the instruction that makes to be stored in this computer-readable memory produces the manufacture that comprises command device, and this command device is realized the function of appointment in flow process of flow chart or a plurality of flow process and/or square frame of block diagram or a plurality of square frame.

Although described the preferred embodiments of the present invention, once those skilled in the art obtain the basic creative concept of cicada, can make other change and modification to these embodiment.So claims are intended to all changes and the modification that are interpreted as comprising preferred embodiment and fall into the scope of the invention.
From above-described embodiment, can find out: embodiment of the present invention RN equipment, after defining new adjacent area, sends new neighboring BS relationship to operation and maintenance O & M equipment; RN equipment, after the adjacent area attribute information of receiving from O & M equipment, upgrades the adjacent area attribute information of RN device storage.
Because RN equipment can be known the attribute of new adjacent area, thereby improved the performance of RN equipment;
Further, because the attribute information of the new adjacent area of RN equipment also can be known in base station, thereby can know whether new adjacent area supports X2 interface, thereby can with support that between the new adjacent area of X2 interface, setting up X2 is connected, the interface configuration that can also guarantee RN equipment is correct, perfect Relay technology.
Obviously, those skilled in the art can carry out various changes and modification and not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention the present invention.Like this, if within of the present invention these are revised and modification belongs to the scope of the claims in the present invention and equivalent technologies thereof, the present invention is also intended to comprise these changes and modification interior.
