Description

The method that switch to Home eNodeB at a kind of terminal
Technical field
The invention belongs to wireless communication technology field, relate to the method that switch to Home eNodeB at a kind of terminal.
Background technology
LTE (Long Term Evolution, Long Term Evolution) network by macro base station (Macro eNodeB, MeNB), (Home eNodeB, HeNB) (Evolved Packet Core EPC) forms Home eNodeB HeNB with the evolution packet switching center.HeNB to user's access support closed order group (Closed Subscribe Group, CSG), mix (Hybrid) and open (Open) three kinds of patterns.ENB (comprising MeNB, HeNB) is connected through the S1 interface with EPC, can connect through X2 interface between the MeNB, does not have X2 interface between the HeNB and between HeNB and the MeNB at present.S1, X2 are logic interfacing.An EPC can manage one or more eNB, and an eNB also can be controlled by a plurality of EPC, and an eNB can manage one or more sub-districts.
For Target cell is the switching of the home cell (terminal is inserted with the CSG pattern, below is referred to as to the CSG sub-district) of CSG pattern or Hybrid pattern, and the measurement configuration process before it switches and Target cell are that the measurement configuration process of macro base station is different.In the existing standard of LTE; The terminal needs to trigger the measurement to the CSG sub-district according to fingerprint matching (fingerprint) result of oneself; For the alien frequencies situation, UE can use near the indication (Proximity Indication, PI) message notifies current Serving cell to carry out corresponding measurement configuration; Comprise the indication that gets into/leave the CSG cell range in the PI message, and the frequency information of CSG sub-district.On the other hand because the laying of HeNB confirmed by the user, do not receive carrier network planning restriction, therefore, the LTE system allows HeNB to have descending receiving function.The current wireless environment that HeNB can measure according to oneself when starting carries out parameters such as automatic configuration frequency, power and PCI.Because Home eNodeB is after restarting or upgrading under the CSG sub-district; The possibility that has frequency shift; The frequency shift information if the former serving BS in terminal can not upgrade in time because the frequency information that comprises in the PI message is different with the frequency information of CSG sub-district use, then can cause former serving BS that wrong measurement configuration is carried out at the terminal; Cause the terminal can't in time switch to correct CSG sub-district, failure (as shown in Figure 1) finally switches.
Existing solution is: HeNB uses X2 interface to inform neighbours' frequency shift, and the terminal adds PCI when reporting PI message, searches correct frequency information for former serving BS.But in present LTE system, have only 504 available PCI altogether, mean that so each PCI need be in different re-used across cells.Because the laying of Home eNodeB makes that number of cells becomes very huge in the zone of a macrocell.Under this scene, the PCI conflict of neighbor cell takes place easily, and two non-conterminous neighbor cells of certain sub-district use identical PCI (being that PCI obscures).Therefore, after HeNB restarted, its PCI value may change, and perhaps PCI occurs with other HeNB and obscures.
Summary of the invention
Technical problem to be solved by this invention is: the method that provides a kind of terminal to switch to Home eNodeB, this method can improve the terminal to the Home eNodeB success rate for switching.
For solving the problems of the technologies described above, the present invention adopts following technical scheme.
A kind of terminal may further comprise the steps to the method that Home eNodeB switches:
Step 1 after Home eNodeB restarts, judges whether occurrence frequency changes for self; If occurrence frequency changes, the frequency values after then will changing is issued with said Home eNodeB through the S1 interface and is covered together or adjacent macro base station, and adjacent Home eNodeB;
Step 2, before said Home eNodeB switched, the terminal was used near Indication message and is notified self serving BS under current to carry out corresponding measurement configuration at the terminal; Said frequency and the E-CGI that comprises the target home base station cells near Indication message; Corresponding measurement configuration is for to upgrade near indication information said;
Step 3, said serving BS is according to carrying out correct measurement configuration near Indication message notice terminal after upgrading;
Step 4, the terminal begins to switch to the target Home eNodeB according to correct measurement configuration.
As a kind of preferred version of the present invention, said frequency, Physical Cell Identifier and the E-CGI that comprises the target home base station cells near Indication message.
As another kind of preferred version of the present invention, in the step 1, the process that the frequency values after said Home eNodeB will change is issued adjacent base station is:
Steps A utilizes the base station configuration Transfer Message in the S1 Application Protocol to send to Mobility Management Entity;
Step B, Mobility Management Entity is transmitted to adjacent base station through the frequency values of Mobility Management Entity configuration Transfer Message after with said change.
As another preferred version of the present invention, in the step 2, the said content of upgrading near indication information is comprised that the frequency to the target home base station cells refreshes.
Beneficial effect of the present invention is: the measurement configuration that the method for the invention has avoided macro base station that mistake is carried out at the terminal causes the terminal can't in time switch to corresponding home base station cells; Solved the problem of inbound mobility handoff failure; Improve handover success rate, guaranteed the quality of communication.

Embodiment
The present invention relates to radio honeycomb communication system, more particularly, is in the LTE GSM, and the improvement of process is reported in the measurement of terminal before Home eNodeB switches.The present invention promptly is that frequency that possibly exist and PCI change the problem of bringing, and propose solution after restarting to Home eNodeB.
Do further explain below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing specific embodiments of the invention.
Embodiment one
Because in the present LTE standard, HeNB and adjacent MeNB and other HeNB do not have X2 interface, therefore, the present invention proposes the method that switch to Home eNodeB at a kind of terminal, and the implementation procedure of this method is:
After HeNB restarts; If change has taken place in the frequency information that HeNB uses; The frequency values that then at first will oneself be selected for use is through S1 AP (Application Protocol; Application protocol) the eNB Configuration Transfer in (base station configuration transfer) message sends to MME (Mobility Management Entity; Mobility Management Entity), MME is transmitted to the MeNB adjacent with this HeNB and other HeNB through the frequency values that MME Configuration Transfer (the Mobility Management Entity configuration is shifted) message is selected HeNB for use again.Simultaneously; Because the PCI of the HeNB of restarting also can change or obscure with other HeNB; The present invention proposes in PI message, to add E-CGI (E-UTRAN Cell Global Identifier; Evolved global grounding wireless access network sub-district general identifications) information supplies serving BS to confirm the frequency values of the current use of target HeNB, thereby avoids macro base station that wrong measurement configuration is carried out at the terminal; Cause the terminal can't in time switch to corresponding home base station cells, the problem of inbound mobility (mobility in the territory: the user in the macro base station moves to Home eNodeB) handoff failure finally takes place.
