Description

Measurement result location association method, Apparatus and system
Technical field
The present invention relates to the communications field, in particular to a kind of measurement result location association method, Apparatus and system.
Background technology
Utilize special equipment to carry out cost and the complexity of artificial drive test in order to reduce operator, third generation partnership project (Third Generation Partnership Projects, abbreviate 3GPP as) at universal land radio access web (Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network, abbreviate UTRAN as, comprise base station (Node B) and radio network controller (RNC)) and universal land radio access web (the Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network of evolution, abbreviate E-UTRAN as, comprising evolution base station (eNB)) version 10 (Release-10) of system begins to introduce minimum road test (Minimization of Drive Test abbreviates MDT as) function.The core net of UTRAN correspondence (Core Network, abbreviate CN as) comprise host-user server (Home Subscriber Server, abbreviate HSS as), Mobile Switching Center Server (Mobile Switching Centre Server, abbreviate MSC Server as), the service GPRS (General Packet Radio Service, abbreviate GPRS as) support node (Serving GPRS Support Node abbreviates SGSN as) etc.The core net CN of E-UTRAN correspondence comprises host-user server HSS, mobile management entity (Mobile Management Entity abbreviates MME as) etc.Minimum road test functional utilization subscriber equipment (User Equipment, abbreviate UE as, also can be called terminal) collect metrical information automatically and report to wireless access network (Radio Access Network by chain of command (Control Plane) signaling, abbreviate RAN as, refer to RNC for the UTRAN system, refer to eNB for the E-UTRAN system), report to Operation ﹠ Maintenance System (Operation And Maintenance by wireless access network again, abbreviate OAM as) tracking collect entity (Trace Collection Entity, abbreviate TCE as), be used for the network optimization, for example find and solve network coverage problem.
The MDT function can be divided into based on the MDT (Management based MDT) of management with based on the MDT (Signaling based MDT) of signaling.Activation based on the MDT of management (is example with the E-UTRAN system normally, below all with) OAM (Operation and Maintenance or claim network management system) sends the tracking that comprises the MDT configuration and activates message (Trace session activation) and give eNB, eNB selects suitable UE in the zone of this message specifies (Area), and above-mentioned MDT configuration information is sent to the UE that chooses.Be to send the tracking that comprises the MDT configuration by OAM to activate message (Trace session activation) and measure for HSS (Home Subscriber Server) to activate the MDT that specifies UE based on the activation of the MDT of signaling, HSS sends to MME with the MDT configuration information of above-mentioned UE, MME sends to eNB with the MDT configuration information of this UE, and eNB MDT configuration information the most at last sends to UE.MDT based on signaling uses IMSI International Mobile Subscriber Identity (International Mobile Subscriber Identity usually, abbreviate IMSI as) or international mobile station device identification (International Mobile Station Equipment Identity, abbreviate IMEI as) specify certain UE, or add that area information is with the selection of restriction UE.Based on track reference (Trace Reference) information that comprises in the MDT that manages and the MDT activation message based on signaling from OAM, comprising public land mobile network (Public Land Mobile Network, abbreviate PLMN as) information, by Mobile Country Code MCC (Mobile country code, abbreviate MCC as) and Mobile Network Code (Mobile Network code abbreviates MNC as) composition.
The MDT function is operated in Idle state and is operated in connected state according to it and can be divided into two kinds of mode of operations, is specially " record minimum road test (Logged MDT) " and " minimum road test (immediate MDT) immediately ".The record minimum road test refers to that UE controls idle condition at Radio Resource and (refers to the RRC_IDLE state for the E-UTRAN system; Also comprise cell _ paging channel state (CELL_PCH) and UTRAN Acceditation Area _ paging channel state (URA_PCH) for the UTRAN system), when the condition that disposes satisfies, collect and store when measurement of correlation information is used for receiving wireless access network (RAN) order request in the future and report, after wireless access network (RAN) is received above-mentioned data, gather or directly be transmitted to TCE.Minimum road test refers to that UE (refers to the RRC_CONNECTED state for the E-UTRAN system at Radio Resource control connection state immediately; Refer to CELL _ DCH status (CELL_DCH) for the UTRAN system) time collect measurement of correlation information and when report condition is satisfied in report active upload give wireless access network (RAN), after wireless access network (RAN) receives report, gather or directly report is passed to TCE.
The measurement of minimum road test immediately has M1 and M2 to measure two kinds in the measurement of E-UTRAN at present, what the M1 of E-UTRAN was UE according to 36.214 agreements requires measuring reference signals received power (Reference Signal Received Power, abbreviate RSRP as) and Reference Signal Received Quality (Reference Signal Received Quality, abbreviate RSRQ as), this measurement can be periodic measurement or Event triggered measurement, the M2 measurement of E-UTRAN is according to 36.213 protocol measure power levels (Power Headroom abbreviates PH as); In the UTRAN side M1 is arranged at present, M2, M3 measures, and the M1 measurement of UTRAN is to receive reference code power (Received Signal Code Power according to 25.215 protocol measures, abbreviate RSCP as) etc. parameter, this measurement can be that periodic measurement or Event triggered measure; The M2 measurement of UTRAN is to measure parameters such as receiving reference code power according to agreement 25.255, and this measurement can be periodic measurement or Event triggered measurement; The M3 measurement of UTRAN is according to agreement 25.255 test signal to noise ratio parameters such as (SIR).
The target that MDT service quality (Quality of Service abbreviates QoS as) is measured provides the data analysis network performance.MDT QoS measures and is used for discovery to the key link of network performance influence, finds whether to be necessary to adjust network configuration parameters or the network capacity extension.In the network early deployment or when using on a large scale, this function all can be used for detecting the service quality of UE and experience the requirement whether (Quality of experience abbreviates QoE as) satisfies the network planning.The work that existing artificial drive test has QoS to measure equally, but the cost of artificial drive test is higher, and also some specific zone can't use artificial drive test fully to measure.Therefore MDT QoS measurement adopts the UE of some to report the QoS when using business to measure, and provides the measurement data of statistical significance for operator.
The method that MDT QoS measures is measured the method for (Layer2 measurements) based on existing layer two.Existing layer two measurements regulation in agreement 36.314, for some properties data that provide the webmaster side to pay close attention to, the message throughput that for example divides into groups (IP Throughput), message delay (packet delay), packet loss (Data Loss) etc. are measured item.These are measured all and carry out in the eNB side, and UE does not participate in actual measurement.
In the prior art, for example in the E-UTRAN network, eNB can realize layer two measurement to particular UE, can carry out MDT QoS based on this measures, for example throughput (Throughput) is measured etc., concerning operator, this measurement result is associated with positional information and just more is of practical significance, if the positional information measurement result shows existing capacity and can't satisfy the throughput requirement, operator can consider to serve the not good problem of impression at particular location deploy small base station to solve the user, if but above-mentioned network side measurement result can't be associated together with positional information, operator then need could determine to install the positional information of small base station by artificial drive test.Therefore be necessary to provide the network side MDT QoS positional information of measurement result, positional information can be more specific location information, and the more specific location information of MDT comprises latitude and longitude information at least in the prior art, can also comprise information such as height; Positional information can also be that the terminal that can derive positional information is measured.
The terminal measurement that can derive positional information refers to that the UE of the final more specific location information of auxiliary calculating in the LCS system measures.Positioning function (LCS) has three kinds of methods in the prior art, be respectively network side assisted GNSS method (network-assisted GNSS methods), downlink positioning method (downlink positioning), strengthen cell ID method (enhanced cell ID method), every kind of said method all needs the support of terminal measurement in order to obtain final more specific location information; Terminal is measured and final more specific location information and inequality, and more specific location information comprises concrete geographical position such as longitude and latitude, and the UE metrical information is the process data of measuring process, the such data of the LCS server needs final more specific location information of deriving; For example strengthen in the cell ID method, for LCS server finally calculates more specific location information, UE needs measuring reference signals received power (Reference Signal Received Power, abbreviate RSRP as) and Reference Signal Received Quality (Reference Signal Received Quality, abbreviate RSRQ as) and the transmitting-receiving time difference (UE Rx-Tx time difference), UE offers measurement result LCS server and calculates final more specific location information by LCS server.But above-mentioned measurement can not rely on the LCS function and can directly be implemented by UE.Access Network can't directly obtain above-mentioned positional information in the prior art, for example do not support in the E-UTRAN side eNB prior art to obtain more specific location information into the MDT function, do not support the terminal that to derive positional information for the acquisition of MDT function to measure yet, therefore network side MDT QoS measurement result can't be associated with positional information in the prior art, causes the validity of above-mentioned measurement result to reduce.Therefore, demand proposing a kind of method of network side MDT measurement result relative position information urgently.
The lower problem of validity at network side measurement result in the correlation technique does not propose effective solution at present as yet.

Be further detailed below in conjunction with preferred embodiment, following preferred embodiment combines above-described embodiment and preferred implementation.
Embodiment one
This preferred embodiment is based on MDT immediately and based on the MDT of signaling, this example is that network side starts up-downgoing MDT QoS measurement, positional information and the QoS measurement result of network side in same period during the periodicity of network side use UE reports combine, Fig. 5 is the flow chart based on the MDT measurement result location association method of signaling of the embodiment of the invention one, as shown in Figure 5, this method may further comprise the steps:
Step S501:EMS triggers minimum road test, sends minimum road test message (for example Trace Session Activation message) and gives the HSS network element, and this message comprises MDT QoS and measures the up-downgoing requirement;
Step S502:HSS retrieve UE online after, send the minimum road test configuration messages to the core network element at UE place; Wherein, if under the EPC network condition, above-mentioned core network element can be MME, if under the UTRAN network condition, above-mentioned core network element can be SGSN or MSC server;
For example, when core network element was MME, the message of the MDT configuration of carrying can be update location answer, and this message comprises MDT QoS and measures the up-downgoing requirement;
Step S503: core network element sends minimum road test and disposes to access network element (being also referred to as access network equipment or network equipment); Wherein, if under the EPC network condition, above-mentioned access network element can be eNB, if the UMTS network element, above-mentioned access network element can be RNC;
If under the situation of EPC network, above-mentioned message of carrying the minimum road test configuration can be Initial context setup request message, if UTRAN PS territory, above-mentioned message of carrying the minimum road test configuration can be CN invoke Trace message, and this message comprises MDT QoS and measures the up-downgoing requirement;
Step S504: access network element receives the minimum road test configuration messages of the signaling MDT of core network element transmission, and the MDT QoS business of above-mentioned UE is measured;
The QoS that access network element starts this UE measures for example up, descending or up-downgoing; For example, in the E-UTRAN system, eNB starts layer two and measures, and the business of the UE that issues configuration is carried out the measurement of QoS, and the information of this measurement can be throughput, packet loss etc., and above-mentioned measurement can be up separately according to configuration, independent descending or up-downgoing;
Access Network is prepared the UE configuration: for example, if the E-UTRAN network element, it can be that the periodicity of M1 reports mode that the periodicity of eNB configuration reports, dispose the corresponding cycle and report the number of times restriction, and for example can be 120 milliseconds (120ms), report 5 times; If the UTRAN network element, it can be that the periodic measurement of M1 or M2 reports mode that the periodicity of RNC configuration reports, dispose the corresponding cycle and report the number of times restriction, and for example can be 120 milliseconds (120ms), report 5 times;
Step S505: access network element sends the minimum road test configuration messages to UE; Wherein, this configuration sends to UE by the existing cell of measuring configuration messages, and is concrete, in the LTE network, can be to carry in the RRCConnectionReconfiguration message;
Step S506:UE carries out measurement and the trial of configuration requirement and obtains positional information; Wherein, UE measures accordingly according to configuration after receiving configuration, if for example the E-UTRAN system has disposed the M1 measurement, UE can carry out the measurement of corresponding RSRP and RSRQ;
UE gives the correct time at end cycle can attempt obtaining positional information, for example in the E-UTRAN system, UE checks when end cycle whether effective positional information is arranged, if it's not true, UE can attempt obtaining positional information, for example UE can be from starting independent GPS (Stand Alone GPS) to obtain positional information, perhaps UE uses the function on LCS flow process of 3GPP to obtain positional information, preferably, consider that obtaining positional information needs certain time delay, UE can start the process of obtaining positional information in advance before the end of term in week; UE also can directly carry out deriving the terminal measurement of positional information, and for example UE can start RSRP, RSRQ measurement and the transmitting-receiving time difference that strengthens defined in the cell ID method.

Step S601:EMS triggers minimum road test, by southbound interface configuring request is sent to access network element, for example eNB or RNC; Comprise MDT QoS in this message and measured the up-downgoing requirement;
Step S602: access network element is selected suitable UE, and starts the up MDT QoS measurement of this UE; Need to prove that this example is the MDT based on management, just network management system is selected concrete UE, for example, selects one or more suitable UE by Access Network eNB or RNC;
Requirement according to configuration, access network element starts the descending MDT QoS measurement of above-mentioned UE in this example, and prepare UE and dispose: for example, if E-UTRAN network element, it can be that the periodicity of M1 reports mode that the periodicity of eNB configuration reports, disposing the corresponding cycle and report the number of times restriction, for example can be 120 milliseconds (120ms), reports 5 times; If the UTRAN network element, it can be that the periodic measurement of M1 or M2 reports mode that the periodicity of RNC configuration reports, dispose the corresponding cycle and report the number of times restriction, and for example can be 120 milliseconds (120ms), report 5 times;
Step S603: access network element sends the minimum road test configuration messages to UE; Wherein, this configuration sends to UE by the existing cell of measuring configuration messages, and is concrete, in the LTE network, can be to carry in the RRCConnectionReconfiguration message;
Step S604:UE carries out measurement and the trial of configuration requirement and obtains positional information; Wherein, UE measures accordingly according to configuration after receiving configuration, and for example the network side configuration UE is carried out up QoS measurement in this example, and be 120ms measuring period, and then UE can start corresponding up QoS measurement, beginning image data;
UE gives the correct time at end cycle can attempt obtaining positional information, for example in the E-UTRAN system, UE checks when end cycle whether effective positional information is arranged, if do not have, UE can attempt obtaining positional information, for example UE can be from starting independent GPS (Stand Alone GPS) to obtain positional information, perhaps UE uses the function on LCS flow process of 3GPP to obtain positional information, preferably, consider that obtaining positional information needs certain time delay, UE can start the process of obtaining positional information in advance before the end of term in week; Perhaps UE directly carries out deriving the terminal measurement of positional information.
Can with measurement result and the positional information of carrying out configuration requirement together send to network side when finishing measuring period, and for example in this example, the 120ms cycle, UE sent to network together with up QoS measurement result and positional information when arriving;
Step S605:UE sends periodically that minimum road test reports to network side, and for example, the cycle of configuration is when arriving, UE reporting measurement result, and for example among the LTE, UE sends measurement report message to eNB, carries measurement result and positional information;
Step S606: access network element carries out the QoS measurement result of network side in above-mentioned positional information and corresponding cycle related;
For example, after receiving above-mentioned positional information, access network element checks the QoS measurement result of the network side in the corresponding cycle, for example among the E-UTRAN, eNB configuration UE in this example is to carry out reporting of 120ms cycle, when UE reported, eNB checked in transmission to be configured to whether receive the measurement result to the MDT QoS of this UE of carrying out in this 120ms of measurement report effective, for example throughput measured value non-NULL; For example in this example, what eNB carried out is that the descending QoS of this UE measures, and eNB checks to send to be configured to and receives in this 120ms of measurement report whether non-NULL of measured value;
Access network element will this effective measured value and the positional information of UE in reporting be associated together, for example among the E-UTRAN, effective QoS measurement result and UE the specifying information report in of eNB in the above-mentioned cycle is associated together, and thinks that the particular location that this measurement result takes place is exactly to report entrained particular location among the UE; In this example, eNB combines the positional information that descending QoS measurement result and UE report, and thinks the result that this measurement result is added up at above-mentioned particular location just;
Positional information during Access Network reports above-mentioned effective QoS measurement result and UE sends to TCE together, perhaps several groups of effective QoS measurement results and its corresponding position information is sent to TCE together.
From above description, as can be seen, the present invention's network side measurement result that measuring position information is corresponding with this user side equipment is associated, thereby need just can not obtain the measuring position information corresponding with this network side measurement result by artificial drive test, be convenient to this network side measurement result is further analyzed, solve the lower problem of validity of network side measurement result, improved network performance.
