Description

A kind of changing method of Home eNodeB and system
Technical field
The present invention relates to wireless communication technology, refer to especially a kind of changing method and system of Home eNodeB.
Background technology
Home eNodeB is a kind of small-sized low power base station, private resource as private user, be deployed in the private sites such as family, group, company or school, by access in radio equipment connections such as cable, digital subscriber line (DSL, Digital Subscriber Line) or optical fiber in the core net of operator.The Main Function of Home eNodeB is: provide higher service rate to the user, and reduce and use the needed cost of high-rate service, the covering that remedies simultaneously existing distributed cellular radio communication system is not enough.The advantage of Home eNodeB comprises: low-cost, easy to use, low power output, saved operator and set up with the expense of base station maintenance, solve indoor coverage optimization etc.Wherein, described easy to use referring to: Home eNodeB can plug and play.
In Long Term Evolution (LTE, Long Term Evolution) system, Home eNodeB is called as the Home eNodeB of evolution by (HeNB, Home Evolved Node B).Fig. 1 is the network architecture schematic diagram of HeNB in the prior art.Subscriber equipment under the HeNB (UE, User Equipment) is based on the Home eNodeB Access Network (HeNBAN, Home Evloved NodeB Access Network) of existing air protocol access evolution.HeNBAN comprises: the femto gateway of HeNB and evolution (HeNB GW, Home Evolved NodeB Gateway); Wherein, HeNB GW is optional network element.Only connect a residential quarter under the HeNB.HeNB can be directly connected to by the S1 interface block core (EPC, Evolved Packet Core) of evolution; Wherein, HeNB is connected to gateway (S-GW, Serving GateWay) by S1-U interface, and HeNB is connected to mobile management entity (MME, Mobility Management Entity) by S1-MME interface.HeNB also can be connected to EPC by HeNB GW; Wherein, S1-U interface can terminate in HeNB GW, perhaps, can terminate in EPC, and S1-MME interface process HeNB GW is to EPC.
The function of the function that HeNB supports and evolved base station (eNB, evolved Node B) is basic identical.The major function of HeNB GW comprises: the S1 message that the S1 message that relaying UE is relevant, the non-UE of termination are relevant and select MME etc. for UE in attaching process.In addition, Home eNodeB management system (the HeMS of the evolution among Fig. 1, HeNB Management System) HeNB is carried out maintenance and management, and according to the requirement of operator configuration and control HeNB, wherein, most importantly realize configuration feature for HeNB, the content of configuration comprises: the examining of positional information, the parameter of HeNB, the parameter of core net, wireless access network (RAN, the parameter of parameter Radio Access Network) and wireless frequency (RF, Radio Frequency).The function that safety in security gateway (SeGW, the Security Gateway) network enabled is relevant.
Therefore HeNB, has introduced the concept of sealing member group (CSG, Closed Subscriber Group) and has carried out access control only for the specific user provides service.Each HeNB has specific CSG attribute, and described CSG attribute comprises: the sealing member organizes sign (CSG ID, CSG IDentity) and access module.Here, for HeNB has defined three kinds of access modules, be respectively: sealing (Close) pattern, mixing (Hybrid) pattern and opening (Open) pattern; Wherein, under the Close pattern, only have the sealing member composition person of corresponding CSG ID sign just can access; Under the Hybrid pattern, allow all UE accesses, but have the sealing member composition person of corresponding CSG ID sign to enjoy higher priority; Under the Open pattern, allow all UE accesses.
Each UE can be signed in among the above CSG, and the CSG of permission tabulation (ACL, Allowed CSG List) has comprised the CSG ID of the CSG that permission UE can access.UE and core net are all preserved ACL.For the Close residential quarter, MME carries out access control according to the CSG ID of Target cell and the ACL of UE.For the Hybrid residential quarter, HeNB also needs to preserve the member condition (Membership status) of access UE, and carries out member's checking (Membership verification).Here, described Close residential quarter refers to: access module is the residential quarter of Close pattern; Described Hybrid residential quarter refers to: access module is the residential quarter of Hybrid pattern.
Based on existing third generation partner program (3GPP, 3 RdGeneration Partnership Project) agreement, UE can have two kinds of flow processs to switch between HeNB, comprising: based on the switching flow of S1 interface and based on the switching flow of direct X2 interface.
UE based on the switching flow of S1 interface, as shown in Figure 2, may further comprise the steps between HeNB:
Step 201:UE sends measurement report to source HeNB;
Here, described measurement report comprises: cellular global identity (CGI, Cell Global Indentity), tracing area sign (TAI, Tracking Area Indentity), CSG ID and member's sign (Member Indication).
Step 202: source HeNB receives the measurement report that UE sends, and after determining to switch the decision of UE corresponding HeNB to Target cell, sends switching to MME and require (HANDOVER REQUIRED) message;
Here, described HANDOVER REQUIRED message comprises: the CSG ID of the HeNB that Target cell is corresponding; Wherein, if Target cell is the Hybrid residential quarter, then described HANDOVER REQUIRED message also comprises: the access module of Target cell; In the following description, the HeNB that Target cell is corresponding is called target HeNB.
After step 203:MME receives HANDOVER REQUIRED message, CSG subscription information based on the CSG ID in this message and storage, carry out access control, and after the access control success, send handover request (HANDOVER REQUEST) message to target HeNB;
Here, if the access control failure, then MME sends to switch to source HeNB and prepares unsuccessfully (HANDOVER PREPARATION FAILURE) message, to stop handoff procedure.
Described HANDOVER REQUEST message comprises: the CSG ID of target HeNB.
When the cell of the access module that has carried Target cell in the HANDOVER REQUIRED message, MME also will be based on the CSG subscription information of the CSG ID in HANDOVER REQUIRED message and storage, determine that UE is linked into the identity of Target cell, that is: determine that UE is linked into Target cell with the member or with non-member's identity, accordingly, in HANDOVER REQUEST message, carry the CSG member condition.
After step 204: target HeNB receives HANDOVER REQUEST message, compare CSG ID and the CSG ID that broadcasts to Target cell in the HANDOVER REQUEST message, and after corresponding the processing, send Handover Request Acknowledge (HANDOVER REQUEST ACKNOWLEDGE) message to MME;
Here, when HANDOVER REQUEST message is carried CSG ID and CSG member condition, if the CSG ID in the HANDOVER REQUEST message is with the same to the CSG ID of Target cell broadcasting, and the value of the CSG member condition in the HANDOVER REQUEST message is " member ", then target HeNB provides the service quality (QoS of member's identity, Quality of Service) service, and to MME transmission HANDOVER REQUEST ACKNOWLEDGE message; If the CSG ID in the HANDOVER REQUEST message is with inconsistent to the CSG ID of Target cell broadcasting, then target HeNB provides the QoS service of non-member's identity, and sends the CSG ID that broadcasts to Target cell really in HANDOVER REQUEST ACKNOWLEDGE message.
When HANDOVER REQUEST message has only been carried CSG ID, if the CSG ID in the HANDOVERREQUEST message is with inconsistent to the CSG ID of Target cell broadcasting, then target HeNB sends to handoff failure (HANDOVER FAILURE) message of MME with the suitable reason value; If the CSG ID that receives in handover request message is with the same to the CSG ID of Target cell broadcasting, then target HeNB sends HANDOVER REQUEST ACKNOWLEDGE message to MME.
After step 205:MME receives HANDOVER REQUEST ACKNOWLEDGE message, send switching command message to source HeNB;
Step 206: after source HeNB receives switching command message, send switching command message to UE;
After step 207:UE receives switching command message, carry out S1 with target HeNB and switch.
From top description, can find out, not be only applicable to the source HeNB situation identical with the CSG ID of target HeNB based on the switching flow of S1 interface, also be applicable to the source HeNB situation different from the CSG ID of target HeNB.
UE based on the switching flow of direct X2 interface, as shown in Figure 3, may further comprise the steps between HeNB:
Step 301:UE sends measurement report to source HeNB;
Here, described measurement report comprises: CGI, TAI, CSG ID and Member Indication.
Step 302: source HeNB judges whether self identical with the CSG ID of target HeNB after receiving the measurement report that UE sends, and determine identical after, to target HeNB transmission X2 handover request message;
Here, the HeNB that Target cell is corresponding just refers to: target HeNB.
When source HeNB and target HeNB are connected in the same MME pond (MME pool), permission based on the condition that direct X2 interface switches is: two have the CSG of identical CSG ID or the switching of hybrid minizone, perhaps, the access way of target HeNB is the open pattern.All are situations of Close residential quarter or Hybrid residential quarter for cell-of-origin and Target cell, the X2 that source HeNB sends to target HeNB sets up the CSG ID that carries source HeNB in request (X2 SETUP REQUEST) message, target HeNB sets up the CSG ID that also comprises target HeNB in response (X2 SETUP RESPONSE) message at the X2 that sends to source HeNB simultaneously, the CSG ID of source HeNB contrast self and target HeNB determines whether initiating source HeNB to the X2 handover request message of target HeNB, particularly, when source HeNB determines self with the CSG ID of target HeNB identical, determine that initiation source HeNB is to the X2 handover request message of target HeNB.And if Target cell is the hybrid residential quarter, then described X2 handoff request message contains the CSG member condition.
After step 303: target HeNB receives X2 handover request message, send the X2 switching request acknowledgement message to source HeNB;
Step 304: after source HeNB receives the X2 switching request acknowledgement message, send switching command message to UE;
After step 305:UE receives switching command message, carry out X2 with target HeNB and switch.
After step 306:X2 switching was finished, target HeNB asked (PATH SWITCH REQUEST) message by the S1 interface to the conversion of MME transmit path;
Here, in order to use correct charging policy, after finishing based on the switching of X2 interface between the HeNB, target HeNB comprises to the PATH SWITCH REQUEST message that MME sends: CSG ID and the access module of target HeNB.
After step 307:MME receives PATH SWITCH REQUEST message, send PATH SWITCH REQUEST message authentication to target HeNB.
From Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, can find out, with compare based on the switching of S1 interface between the HeNB, switching based on direct X2 interface between the HeNB has following advantage: reduced the signaling traffic load of core net (CN, Core Network), also reduced the time delay that too much Signalling exchange causes simultaneously.Here, described CN specifically can be MME.But, be only applicable to the CSGID situation identical with the CSG ID of target HeNB of source HeNB based on the switching of direct X2 interface, be not suitable for the CSG ID situation different from the CSG ID of target HeNB of source HeNB.
