背景技术Background technique
自动配置邻区关系(Automatic Neighbor Relation,ANR)是指处于连接态下的用户设备(User Equipment,UE)辅助测量周边小区的相关信息,上报给演进基站(eNodeB,eNB)及网络侧,由eNB及网络侧自动完成添加和优化邻区列表的功能。Automatic neighbor relation configuration (Automatic Neighbor Relation, ANR) means that the user equipment (User Equipment, UE) in the connected state assists in measuring the relevant information of surrounding cells, and reports it to the evolved base station (eNodeB, eNB) and the network side, and the eNB And the network side automatically completes the function of adding and optimizing the neighbor list.

In the Long Term Evolution (LTE) system, the UE side can decode the ID of any measurement cell with a given frequency, and the eNB automatically maintains and updates the neighbor cell relationship list, and updates and maintains the neighbor cell list. Its functions include: Area detection function, adjacent cell addition/deletion function, adjacent cell modification function and maintenance management center (Operation and Maintenance, O&M) update adjacent cell information function. Among them, the adjacent cell detection function is mainly completed by the measurement function and the X2 interface configuration update, the adjacent cell addition/deletion function and the adjacent cell modification function are mainly completed by the internal information and the X2 interface configuration update.

In order to reduce transmission delay, improve user data transmission speed, and ensure seamless user switching, a Mesh network structure is adopted . The eNBs are connected to each other through the X2 interface, and to the Evolved Packet Core (EPC) through the S1 interface. The EPC includes MME and S-GW. The eNB is connected to the Mobility Management Entity (MME) through the S1-MME interface. The -U interface is connected to the Signaling Gateway (the Serving Gateway, S-GW). Compared with the traditional cellular network, the base station controller in the traditional cellular network is eliminated in the LTE structure, and only EPC and eNB are included, so that the transmission rate of UE data is faster, the control of radio resources is more stable, and low latency and low complexity are achieved. degree and low cost.
现有ANR技术主要侧重点在稳定的网络条件下建立及维护邻区关系列表。The existing ANR technology mainly focuses on establishing and maintaining a neighbor relationship list under stable network conditions.

When it is determined that the UE is in the public connection state, the network side sends automatic neighbor relationship (ANR) measurement control information to the UE, and the UE controls the measurement based on the obtained ANR. The ANR measurement of dedicated control is performed on the information, and the measurement result is reported to the network side. The invention realizes the automatic neighbor cell relationship reporting by using the UE in the public connection state to complete the dedicated control ANR measurement. Moreover, since the ANR measurement is completed in the public connection state of the UE, it saves air resources and improves the use of the UE. It is felt that there will be no service impact on terminals in the dedicated state.
中国专利CN102761897A公开一种实现自动邻区关系测量的方法及系统,包括UE执行ANR测量前,网络侧将包含有对不同类型ANR测量调度相关控制参数的ANR测量控制配置参数,发送给UE,UE执行ANR测量时,按照接收到的对不同类型ANR测量调度相关控制参数对不同类型的相邻未知小区进行测量。该发明中,UE按照接收的对不同类型ANR测量调度相关控制参数的ANR测量控制配置参数的比例,对不同类型的相邻未知小区进行测量。这样,UE是在一定的网络期望下,更加有针对性的去执行ANR测量log,而不是纯粹的按照Best Effort进行,从而提高了ANR测量log的性能,执行了有质量保证的ANR测量。Chinese patent CN102761897A discloses a method and system for realizing automatic neighbor cell relationship measurement, including that before the UE performs ANR measurement, the network side sends the ANR measurement control configuration parameters containing control parameters related to different types of ANR measurement scheduling to the UE, and the UE When performing ANR measurement, different types of neighboring unknown cells are measured according to the received related control parameters for different types of ANR measurement scheduling. In the invention, the UE measures different types of adjacent unknown cells according to the ratio of received ANR measurement control configuration parameters for different types of ANR measurement scheduling related control parameters. In this way, under certain network expectations, UE performs ANR measurement log in a more targeted manner, rather than purely following Best Effort, thereby improving the performance of ANR measurement log and performing ANR measurement with quality assurance.
中国专利CN102448128A公开一种基站、终端及自动邻区关系检测、添加方法和系统,通过基站下发包含预设检测频点的检测指令给终端,然后终端根据所述检测指令在预设检测频点上检测小区,将检测出的信号强度满足预设条件的小区的小区信息反馈给基站,基站则根据这些小区信息判断是否存在新的邻区。即该发明在检测邻区时,并非将在检测频点上检测到的所有小区的小区信息发给基站,而是仅将信号强度满足预设条件的小区的小区信息发给基站,因此可对检测出的小区进行有效的筛选,可大大减少邻区关系配置过程中的冗余信息,简化邻区关系维护的过程,提高邻区关系维护的效率,且终端在切换时,也可尽快的直接找到所要切换的邻区,提高终端切换的效率及成功率。Chinese patent CN102448128A discloses a method and system for detecting and adding a base station, a terminal, and an automatic neighboring cell relationship. The base station sends a detection instruction including a preset detection frequency point to the terminal, and then the terminal performs the detection at the preset detection frequency point according to the detection instruction. Cells are detected on the Internet, and the cell information of the cells whose detected signal strength meets the preset conditions is fed back to the base station, and the base station judges whether there is a new neighbor cell based on the cell information. That is, when the invention detects adjacent cells, it does not send the cell information of all cells detected on the detection frequency point to the base station, but only sends the cell information of the cells whose signal strength meets the preset conditions to the base station, so it can be used for Effective screening of detected cells can greatly reduce redundant information in the process of configuring neighbor relationship, simplify the process of maintaining neighbor relationship, and improve the efficiency of neighbor relationship maintenance.

在步骤1)中,所述基站与邻基站进行负载信息的交换,获取邻区负载值的具体方法可为:基站与邻基站间通过X2接口(X2为第三代移动通信技术规范机构3GPP中定义的一种基站与基站间的逻辑接口)交换负载信息;所述邻区包括本小区周围所有相邻小区。In step 1), the base station exchanges load information with neighboring base stations, and the specific method for obtaining the load value of neighboring cells can be: the base station and neighboring base stations use the X2 interface (X2 is the third-generation mobile communication technology specification organization 3GPP A defined logical interface between base stations and base stations) to exchange load information; the adjacent cells include all adjacent cells around this cell.
在步骤2)中,所述基站侧向用户设备(UE)侧发送自动配置邻区关系(ANR)测量指示的具体方法可为:In step 2), the specific method for the base station side to send the automatic neighbor relation (ANR) measurement indication to the user equipment (UE) side may be:

在步骤2)中,用户设备(UE)上报参考信号接收功率(RSRP)测量信息,UE通过在完全测量带宽的子帧连贯加入参考信号(导频信号)功率来测量RSRP,测量过程为滤波采样,rn是更新的滤波器测量结果,rn-1是旧的滤波器测量结果,qn是终点收到的最新测量结果,K是网络提供的滤波器系数,滤波采样表示为:In step 2), the user equipment (UE) reports the reference signal received power (RSRP) measurement information, and the UE measures RSRP by continuously adding the reference signal (pilot signal) power in the subframe of the full measurement bandwidth. The measurement process is filtering sampling , r n is the updated filter measurement result, r n-1 is the old filter measurement result, q n is the latest measurement result received by the end point, K is the filter coefficient provided by the network, and the filter sample is expressed as:

Specifically, it searches its own neighbor cell list, and detects that the load status of the neighbor cells in the cell cluster is a light-load cell or an overload cell, and then performs load transfer for the light-load neighbor cells.
由于用户移动速率较低,而负载是一段时间的统计值,因此本发明对对实时性或数据同步性的要求不是很高,允许较大的有效时间窗。Since the user's moving rate is low, and the load is a statistical value for a period of time, the present invention does not have very high requirements on real-time performance or data synchronization, allowing a larger effective time window.
现有技术至少存在如下问题:There are at least the following problems in the prior art:
目前邻区关系的更新主要依赖于于处于连接态下的UE对周边小区的相关信息的测量,UE在测量时不需要已知的邻区列表的指导,收集物理层信息及相关的高层信息,系统获取GCI(Global Cell Identity,全球小区ID)是一个耗时较长的工作,UE存在着一定的移动速度,在较长的测量时间里,仅仅通过UE有可能漏检,或错检小区。另外,在现有UE测量中,需要UE处于DRX(Discontinuous Reception,非连续接收)睡眠期,一旦有数据接入,UE可能随时中断ANR的测量,使基站及网络侧的当前ANR测量数据量得不到保证。另一方面当网络负载过于集中时,出现局部小区间负载不均衡,导致部分小区的UE上报的测量信息过多而部分小区UE上报的测量信息过少,过多信息的收集与处理导致网络侧和基站的数据筛选复杂、大量相关数据的冗余传输对能量的消耗和处理进程的占用;而获得的测量信息过少,则使得统计结果存在较大误差,使ANR的测量精度达不到要求。而且,这些技术缺乏对局部小区负载不均衡情况下的切换成功率的保障。At present, the update of the neighbor relationship mainly depends on the measurement of the relevant information of the surrounding cells by the UE in the connected state. The UE does not need the guidance of the known neighbor list to collect physical layer information and related high-level information. It is a time-consuming job for the system to obtain GCI (Global Cell Identity, global cell ID). The UE has a certain moving speed. In a long measurement time, it is possible to miss or wrongly detect the cell only through the UE. In addition, in the existing UE measurement, the UE needs to be in the DRX (Discontinuous Reception, discontinuous reception) sleep period. Once there is data access, the UE may interrupt the ANR measurement at any time, so that the current ANR measurement data of the base station and the network side can be reduced. Not guaranteed. On the other hand, when the network load is too concentrated, load imbalance among local cells occurs, resulting in too much measurement information reported by UEs in some cells and too little measurement information reported by UEs in some cells. The collection and processing of too much information leads to The data screening with the base station is complicated, and the redundant transmission of a large amount of related data consumes energy and occupies the processing process; while the obtained measurement information is too small, there are large errors in the statistical results, so that the measurement accuracy of ANR cannot meet the requirements . Moreover, these technologies lack the guarantee of the handover success rate in the case of unbalanced load in local cells.
本发明具有以下优点:根据邻区负载状态优化邻区列表,能够平稳地实现邻区列表的自动更新,降低了网络交互负荷,避免选择UE进行不必要的测量,提高了无线资源的利用率,从而优化了小区间的负载转移,保证有效的扇区切换,避免了乒乓切换,减少掉话率,对邻区列表以及负载均衡达到了持续的优化均衡。由于用户移动速率较低,而负载是一段时间的统计值,因此本发明对实时性或数据同步性的要求不是很高,允许较大的有效时间窗。The present invention has the following advantages: the neighbor list is optimized according to the load state of the neighbor cell, the automatic update of the neighbor list can be realized smoothly, the network interaction load is reduced, the UE is avoided from being selected for unnecessary measurement, and the utilization rate of wireless resources is improved. In this way, the load transfer between cells is optimized, effective sector switching is ensured, ping-pong switching is avoided, the call drop rate is reduced, and a continuous optimal balance is achieved for the neighbor cell list and load balancing. Since the user's moving rate is low, and the load is a statistical value for a period of time, the present invention does not have very high requirements on real-time performance or data synchronization, allowing a relatively large effective time window.

具体实施方式Detailed ways
以下实施例将结合附图对本发明作进一步的说明。The following embodiments will further illustrate the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
本发明实施例提供一种基于ANR优化方法,本发明包括两个阶段,第一阶段适用于ANR初始建立时的优化。An embodiment of the present invention provides an ANR-based optimization method. The present invention includes two stages. The first stage is applicable to the optimization when ANR is initially established.
1)如图1所示,基站进行负载信息的交换,获取邻区负载值。基站与邻区基站间通过X2接口(X2为第三代移动通信技术规范机构3GPP中定义的一种基站与基站间的逻辑接口)交换负载信息。1) As shown in Figure 1, the base station exchanges load information to obtain the load value of the neighboring cell. The base station and neighboring base stations exchange load information through the X2 interface (X2 is a logical interface between base stations and base stations defined in the third-generation mobile communication technology specification organization 3GPP).
首先在进行邻小区规划时,为了保证移动台在相邻小区之间可以自由切换,邻区关系列表应该包括周围所有邻小区。具体的,小区簇中的各个小区完成自身的负载状态信息的测量,同时将自身的负载状态信息发送给邻小区,接收小区将相邻小区的负载状态信息储存到自身的邻小区列表里。Firstly, when planning neighboring cells, in order to ensure that the mobile station can freely switch between neighboring cells, the neighboring cell relationship list should include all surrounding neighboring cells. Specifically, each cell in the cell cluster completes the measurement of its own load status information, and at the same time sends its own load status information to neighboring cells, and the receiving cell stores the load status information of the neighboring cells in its own neighbor cell list.
负载值得计算可以通过小区内当前使用资源块与总资源块来计算得到,假设小区总的物理资源块为MPRE,用户申请业务速率为Du,用户u每个资源块可以提供的速率为R(SINRu),负载值Lload的计算方法如下:The calculation of the load value can be calculated through the resource blocks currently used in the cell and the total resource blocks. Assume that the total physical resource blocks in the cell are M PRE , the user application service rate is D u , and the rate that user u can provide per resource block is R (SINR u ), the load value L load is calculated as follows:
负载的另一种计算方法可以通过小区内系统总容量与当前使用的容量来计算,假设小区总系统容量为Ctotal,小区当前使用容量为Ccurrent,负载值Lload另一种计算方法可以为:Another calculation method of the load can be calculated by the total system capacity in the cell and the currently used capacity. Assume that the total system capacity of the cell is C total , the current use capacity of the cell is C current , and another calculation method of the load value L load can be :
接收小区根据邻小区的负载信息,可将小区分为几个等级,例如假设系统过载门限为60%,各负载状态对应的负载量的取值范围是:轻载状态0%~30%,中载状态30%~60%,重载状态60%~80%,严重过载状态80%~100%,根据小区负载值,将小区划分为几个等级。例如表1所列小区情况。The receiving cell can divide the cell into several grades according to the load information of neighboring cells. For example, assuming that the system overload threshold is 60%, the range of load corresponding to each load state is: 0% to 30% in the light load state, and 0% to 30% in the medium load state. 30% to 60% in the load state, 60% to 80% in the heavy load state, and 80% to 100% in the severe overload state. According to the load value of the cell, the cell is divided into several levels. For example, the conditions of the cells listed in Table 1.
表1邻区负载情况Table 1 Neighborhood Load Conditions
2)基站侧向用户设备(UE)发送进行自动配置邻区关系(ANR)测量的指示。2) The base station sends an instruction to perform automatic neighbor relation (ANR) measurement to the user equipment (UE).
所述UE根据所述基站侧发送的进行ANR测量的指示,启动ANR测量。基站侧向所述UE发送ANR测量的指示,包括3种方式:The UE starts the ANR measurement according to the ANR measurement instruction sent by the base station side. The base station side sends the indication of ANR measurement to the UE, including 3 ways:
a.基站侧发送MAC(Medium Access Control,介质接入控制)层的DRX命令MAC控制单元信息消息,在所述消息中包括至少一个字段用来指示ANR测量;a. The base station side sends the DRX command MAC control unit information message of the MAC (Medium Access Control) layer, and includes at least one field in the message to indicate the ANR measurement;
b.基站侧发送MAC层的专用控制消息,通过所述专用消息指示ANR测量;b. The base station side sends a dedicated control message of the MAC layer, and indicates the ANR measurement through the dedicated message;
c.基站侧发送RRC(Radio Resource Control,无线资源控制)层的控制消息,通过所述RRC层消息指示MAC层发送ANR测量指示。c. The base station side sends a control message of the RRC (Radio Resource Control, radio resource control) layer, and instructs the MAC layer to send an ANR measurement instruction through the RRC layer message.
在步骤2)中,所述用户设备(UE)进行ANR测量,向基站侧上报RSRP(Reference SignalReceiving Power,参考信号接收功率)信息。UE通过在完全测量带宽的子帧连贯加入参考信号(导频信号)功率来测量RSRP,测量过程为滤波采样,rn是更新的滤波器测量结果,rn-1是旧的滤波器测量结果,qn是终点收到的最新测量结果,K是网络提供的滤波器系数,滤波采样表示为:In step 2), the user equipment (UE) performs ANR measurement, and reports RSRP (Reference Signal Receiving Power, reference signal receiving power) information to the base station side. The UE measures RSRP by continuously adding the reference signal (pilot signal) power in the subframe of the full measurement bandwidth. The measurement process is filter sampling, r n is the updated filter measurement result, and r n-1 is the old filter measurement result , q n is the latest measurement result received by the end point, K is the filter coefficient provided by the network, and the filter sampling is expressed as:
3)将步骤1)获取的邻区负载值和步骤2)得到的用户设备(UE)上报参考信号接收功率(RSRP)测量信息优化邻区列表。所述小区将邻区的负载值与UE上报的RSRP信息同时作为权值来更新邻区列表的优先级。邻区列表的获取由UE上报的检测小区,与eNB获得的邻区负载值Lload共同作为权值,对邻区列表进行优先级的进一步优化。则邻区列表Llin可以表示为3) The adjacent cell load value obtained in step 1) and the user equipment (UE) obtained in step 2) are reported to the reference signal received power (RSRP) measurement information to optimize the adjacent cell list. The cell uses the load value of the neighbor cell and the RSRP information reported by the UE as weight values to update the priority of the neighbor cell list. The neighbor cell list is acquired by the detection cell reported by the UE, and the neighbor cell load value Lload obtained by the eNB is used as a weight to further optimize the priority of the neighbor cell list.

When an overloaded cell needs to perform load transfer, the base station preferentially selects a UE with a high priority in the neighbor cell list and a lightly loaded neighbor cell for handover, which can effectively and flexibly perform cell load transfer, basically achieving dynamic load balance between cells, ensuring Handover success rate, optimize the entire network performance. For example, the cell 4 in the graph is originally seriously overloaded, but due to the adjustment in the neighbor cell relationship list, the load transfer is completed after the cell selection is performed when the user switches, and the cell 4 transfers the load to all the adjacent cells The above-mentioned cell 3 and the above-mentioned cell 5, so the serious overload situation of the cell 4 can be alleviated, and the load of the cell 6 is also transferred to the cell 5 at this time, and the load of the cell 5 has increased. The loads of the cells 4 and 6 are reduced, and the adjacent cell list is updated through the change of the load. The priority of the adjacent cell is reduced when the load is heavy, and the priority of the cell is increased when the load is reduced, so that the adjacent cells can be optimized in time. priority, when the user needs to switch at the next moment, it can better provide a switching target with high signal strength and good load to ensure the user's call quality.
