Description

The method and apparatus of base station synchronization
Technical field
The present invention relates to wireless communication field, more particularly to a kind of method and apparatus of base station synchronization.
Background technology
The data traffic requirement growing in order to meet user, it is a kind of to be based on Long Term Evolution(Long Term Evolve, LTE)The base station IP access systems of system are arisen at the historic moment.Base station IP access systems pass through to build Local wireless network, By base station(Access Point, are also called access point base station)Equipment provides the user the network coverage and wirelessly access.By The network architecture of flattening is employed in base station IP access systems, it can simply and cost effectively realize user equipment (User Equipment, UE)Access to external network, as shown in Figure 1.This framework is based entirely on the framework of access network, The core net of LTE system is eliminated, data transfer path and network complexity is simplified.This base station IP access architectures are again Referred to as LTE-Hi systems.
Base station IP access systems are based on TD SDMA-Long Term Evolution(TD-SCDMA Long Term Evolution, TD-LTE)Technology, has followed TD-LTE system for the requirement of synchronization among base stations.This is because adopting in up-downgoing With the time division duplex of identical frequency(TDD Time Division Duplex, TDD)In system, if asynchronous between each base station, The uplink that neighbor cell terminal sends can bring interference, only strict synchronization just keep away to the transmission reception of this cell downlink Exempt from serious interference.
With base station IP access system more similarly LTE Femto, i.e. LTE femtocell(Home eNodeB, HeNB).
LTE femtocell mainly adopts following three kinds of simultaneous techniquess:
Firstth, global positioning system(Global Positioning Systems, GPS);
If HeNB is mounted with GPS, gps satellite synchronizing signal is obtained in that, GPS just can be provided precisely for which Sync identification(100ns), but the use of GPS is limited to environment, especially environment cannot almost work indoors, Er Qiecheng This is higher.
Secondth, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers(IEEE Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, IEEE)1588v2;
Under good back haul link network support(It can be the fiber optic Ethernet of operator's laying), 1588v2 also can The synchronization accuracy of Microsecond grade is provided, but under not all scene, can all have high-quality back haul link to support, Er Qie electricity Cable and x Digital Subscriber Line road(X digital subscriber line, XDSL)Also all there is a problem that time delay is unstable, Considerable influence can be produced to synchronization accuracy.
3rd, network monitoring;
Network monitoring scheme cannot can work under conditions of use in GPS and 1588v2 schemes, therefore for TD-LTE For HeNB, this is a kind of requisite synchronization mechanism.Network monitoring mechanism is referred to by receiving synchronized network section Point(Synchronisation source)Signal obtaining synchronous method.Forbid transmitting after HeNB starts but before there is no synchronously, HeNB must first go through monitor synchronization node signal carry out Network Synchronization after can just carry out normal transmission, and subsequently also Periodically to be safeguarded to synchronous.For HeNB, its synchronisation source can select synchronized macro base station(MeNB), HeNB Timing is obtained by the synchronizing signal or reference markss of reception MeNB, as shown in Figure 2 a.But when macrocell network is covered It is undesirable, or HeNB, when being located at building depths, the synchronizing signal for obtaining macro base station can be affected by certain, now HeNB Synchronization can be realized by way of multi-hop, i.e., by synchronizing with synchronized HeNB, as shown in Figure 2 b.
For multi-hop synchronization, need to introduce the concept of layer, sync, layer, sync can be defined as needing synchronous HeNB with The jumping figure passed through between GPS sources, the upper level source that the layer, sync grade of certain HeNB is more synchronous than its acquisition are big by 1.For example, Fig. 2 a and The layer, sync grade of the MeNB in Fig. 2 b is 2 for the layer, sync grade of 1, HeNB2 for the layer, sync grade of 0, HeNB1.
3GPP discusses following three kinds of network monitoring mechanism:
First, based on master sync signal(Primary Synchronized Signal, PSS)/ auxiliary synchronous signals (Secondary Synchronization Signal, SSS)Monitoring.Under this mechanism, HeNB is by receiving synchronization node PSS/SSS synchronize, during mourning in silence, the PSS/SSS of tracking HeNB can not carry out normal transmission.
Second, based on multimedia broadcast multi-broadcasting business Single Frequency Network(Multimedia Broadcast multicast Service Single Frequency Network, MBSFN)The monitoring of subframe.HeNB is by being claimed as subframe of mourning in silence MBSFN sub-frame, UE then ignore the subframe when receiving.The method is all suitable for for single-hop and multi-hop synchronization mechanism, in multi-hop feelings Under condition, some subframes can be claimed as MBSFN sub-frame, the HeNB statements of different layers with certain cycle by each layer of HeNB MBSFN sub-frame position be different.Maximum MBSFN sub-frame configuration is limited to, it is maximum to support 4 to jump.
3rd, based on the monitoring that TDD special subframes are configured.By configuring less descending pilot frequency time slot to HeNB (DwPTS)Symbol and the DwPTS symbols for giving MeNB configurations more, so that HeNB can protect time slot using which(GP)When Between measuring the exclusive pilot signal of the cell of MeNB(Cell-specific reference signals, CRS)It is same to obtain Step.But as general DwPTS equipping rules are that covering high power capacity cell little for interior etc. adopts more DwPTS symbols Configuration, for outdoor positioning is in the then less DwPTS configurations of symbolization of the wide cell for covering, and the configuration of this synchronous method will Ask then just with the network configuration principle of DwPTS conversely, therefore the network configuration to operator is constituted a definite limitation, and this The method of kind can not typically support the Network Synchronization of the 2 jump above.
The system accessed based on local IP is generally used for interior and hot spot region, and is likely to using different from LTE system High band, it is difficult to using macro base station as synchronisation source carry out network monitoring realize it is synchronous, even if being based partially on local IP accesses system The base station of system(Hereinafter referred LTE-Hi base station)Absolute synchronization source is obtained, when LTE-Hi base stations are densely deployed in indoor hot zone During domain, the maximum layer, sync number of plies of TD-LTE network monitorings mechanism regulation can not meet requirement.
To sum up, the base station based on local IP access systems indoors hot spot region dense deployment when, base station cannot obtain absolutely To synchronisation source, or effective synchronisation source cannot be obtained as the maximum synchronization numbers of plies of TD-LTE are limited.

Referring to Fig. 3 a, for base station side, the method for the first base station synchronization provided in an embodiment of the present invention, including following step Suddenly:
Step 301:The layer, sync grade of the base station is set to minimum same after effective synchronisation source is not searched by base station Step layer grade, and determine whether the layer, sync grade of the base station is conflicted with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station;Here, do not searched The synchronisation source of effect refers to that the layer, sync grade for not searching synchronisation source or the synchronisation source for searching reaches maximum layer, sync grade;
Step 302:If conflict, the layer, sync grade of the base station is reset, and the adjacent base station for conflicting is selected as same Step source, realizes synchronous with the synchronisation source;
Step 303:If not conflicting, the layer, sync grade of the base station is fixed as into minimum layer, sync grade, so that adjacent base Stand and the base station synchronizes.
In step 301, determine whether the layer, sync grade of the base station is conflicted with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station, implement Can be using one of the following two kinds method:
First, the layer, sync grade of the base station whether layer, sync grade with adjacent base station is determined by searching for adjacent cell signal Conflict;
Specifically, adjacent cell signal is searched within the time of the first setting duration, if not searching layer, sync grade for most The signal of the co-frequency neighbor cell of low layer, sync grade, it is determined that the layer, sync grade of the base station is with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station not Conflict;
If searching the signal of the co-frequency neighbor cell that layer, sync grade is minimum layer, sync grade, duration is set second Time in continue monitor the co-frequency neighbor cell signal, if second setting duration time in the co-frequency neighbor cell synchronization Layer grade is minimum layer, sync grade always, it is determined that the base station that the layer, sync grade of the base station is located with the co-frequency neighbor cell Layer, sync grade conflicts, if the layer, sync grade of the co-frequency neighbor cell changes within the time of the second setting duration, really The layer, sync grade of the fixed base station is not conflicted with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station.
Second, the information of the layer, sync grade of the base station is sent to gateway device;It is true according to the feedback information of gateway device Whether the layer, sync grade of the fixed base station is conflicted with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station.
Specifically, if the feedback information of gateway device is confirmation, it is determined that the layer, sync grade of the base station and adjacent base The layer, sync grade stood does not conflict, if the feedback information of gateway device is refusal information, it is determined that the layer, sync grade of the base station Conflict with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station;
The confirmation is synchronization stratum information and information of adjacent cells of the gateway device in all base stations according to storage, really The information that the layer, sync grade of the fixed base station is sent after not conflicted with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station;The refusal information is gateway Synchronization stratum information and information of adjacent cells of the equipment in all base stations according to storage, determine the layer, sync grade and adjacent base of the base station The information sent after the layer, sync grade conflict stood;Or,
The confirmation be gateway device after the information of the layer, sync grade by the base station is sent to each adjacent base station, connect Receive the confirmation or the information sent when setting and the reply of adjacent base station not being received in duration of adjacent base station reply;It is described to refuse Absolutely information be gateway device after the information of the layer, sync grade by the base station is sent to adjacent base station, receive adjacent base station reply The information sent during refusal information.
Accordingly, select the adjacent base station for conflicting as synchronisation source in step 302, implement and can adopt the following two kinds side One of method:
First, during the information of the adjacent base station comprising conflict in the refusal information for receiving, select indicated by the information Adjacent base station is used as synchronisation source;
Second, adjacent cell signal is searched for, the base station conduct for selecting the elementary adjacent cell of layer, sync for searching to be located Synchronisation source.
In step 302, the layer, sync grade of the base station is reset, and implementing can be as follows:By the synchronization of the base station Layer grade is re-set as the layer, sync grade of a grade higher than minimum layer, sync grade.
Such as Fig. 3 b, for gateway device side, the first synchronizing information feedback method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, including with Lower step:
Step 311:Gateway device receives the information of the layer, sync grade of the base station that base station sends;
Step 312:Gateway device determines whether the layer, sync grade of the base station is conflicted with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station, and Feedback information is returned to base station according to determination result.
Implementing for step 312 can be as follows:
If gateway device is according to the synchronization stratum information of all base stations of storage(Including layer, sync grade)And information of adjacent cells, Determine that the layer, sync grade of the base station is not conflicted with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station, then confirmation is returned to base station;If according to The synchronization stratum information and information of adjacent cells of all base stations of storage, determines the layer, sync grade of the base station and the layer, sync of adjacent base station Grade conflicts, then return refusal information to base station;Or,
Gateway device is sent to the information of the layer, sync grade of the base station after adjacent base station, if receiving adjacent base station reply Confirmation does not receive the reply of adjacent base station in setting duration, then return confirmation to base station;If receiving adjacent base Stand reply refusal information, then to base station return refusal information.
In order to solve the problems, such as how the base station based on local IP access systems carries out effectively synchronization, the embodiment of the present invention is carried For the method for second base station synchronization.
Referring to Fig. 4 a, for base station side, the method for second base station synchronization provided in an embodiment of the present invention, including following step Suddenly:
Step 401:Base station receives the configuration information comprising layer, sync grade that gateway device sends;
Step 402:Base station arranges the layer, sync grade of itself according to the configuration information, will the layer, sync grade of itself The layer, sync grade being set in the configuration information;If the layer, sync grade of the base station is not minimum layer, sync grade, it is determined that Synchronisation source, and realize synchronous with the synchronisation source;If the layer, sync grade of the base station is minimum layer, sync grade, adjacent base station meeting Synchronize with the base station.
In step 401, base station receives the configuration information comprising layer, sync grade of gateway device transmission, and implementing can With as follows:
Base station receives the configuration information comprising layer, sync grade of gateway device transmission after network is linked into;Or,
Base station sends synchronization level request message to gateway device after effective synchronisation source is not searched;Receive gateway The configuration information comprising layer, sync grade that equipment is returned.
The method of above-mentioned determination synchronisation source can be as follows:
When also information of adjacent cells is included in the configuration information for receiving, layer, sync grade is determined according to the information of adjacent cells The base station that minimum adjacent cell is located, using the base station for determining as synchronisation source;Here information of adjacent cells can include adjacent cell The information such as layer, sync grade;Or,
Search adjacent cell signal, selects the base station that the elementary adjacent cell of the layer, sync for searching is located as synchronization Source.
Preferably, after base station receives the configuration information, base station receives gateway device to be occurred to become in network design The reconfiguration information sent after change, comprising the layer, sync grade after updating in the reconfiguration information;Base station reconfigures letter according to this Breath reset the layer, sync grade of itself, will the layer, sync grade of itself be set to layer, sync in the reconfiguration information etc. Level;If the layer, sync grade of the base station is not minimum layer, sync grade after resetting, redefine synchronisation source, and realize with The synchronization of the synchronisation source for redefining.
Likewise, the above-mentioned method for redefining synchronisation source can be as follows:
When also information of adjacent cells is included in the reconfiguration information for receiving, layer, sync etc. is determined according to the information of adjacent cells The base station that the minimum adjacent cell of level is located, using the base station for determining as synchronisation source;Or,
Search adjacent cell signal, selects the base station that the elementary adjacent cell of the layer, sync for searching is located as synchronization Source.
As shown in Figure 4 b, for gateway device side, second synchronizing information feedback method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, bag Include following steps:
Step 411:Gateway device determines the layer, sync grade of base station;In advance the layer, sync grade of base station can be stored in In gateway device, gateway device determines the layer, sync grade of base station according to the information of storage;
Step 412:Configuration information comprising the layer, sync grade is sent to base station by gateway device.
In step 412, the configuration information comprising the layer, sync grade is sent to base station by gateway device, and implementing can With as follows:
Configuration information comprising the layer, sync grade is sent to base station after base station is linked into network by gateway device; Or,
Gateway device, will after the synchronization level request message sent when base station does not search effective synchronisation source is received Configuration information comprising the layer, sync grade is sent to base station.
Preferably, after the configuration information comprising layer, sync grade is sent to base station by gateway device, gateway device exists Network design sends reconfiguration information to base station after changing, comprising the layer, sync grade after updating in the reconfiguration information. Layer, sync grade after renewal is the layer, sync grade reset for base station after network design changes.
In order to solve the problems, such as how the base station based on local IP access systems carries out effectively synchronization, the embodiment of the present invention is carried For the method for the third base station synchronization.
Referring to Fig. 5 a, for base station side, the method for the third base station synchronization provided in an embodiment of the present invention, including following step Suddenly:
Step 501:Base station is to maintenance and management entity(OAM)Registration process in report the positional information of the base station; Receive the configuration information of the layer, sync class information comprising adjacent base station that OAM is returned;The adjacent base station is positions of the OAM according to the base station The elementary adjacent base station of layer, sync in each adjacent base station of the base station that confidence breath determines;
Step 502:Layer, sync hierarchical search synchronisation source of the base station according to the adjacent base station in configuration information, and with the synchronisation source Synchronize, i.e. the signal of adjacent cell of the search comprising the layer, sync grade, it is using the adjacent cell as synchronisation source and synchronous with this Source synchronizes.
Preferably, after base station is synchronized with the synchronisation source for searching, following steps can be performed:
If A, success synchronous with the synchronisation source, the synchronization for returning the information comprising the synchronisation source to OAM are successfully indicated;
If B, the synchronization failure with the synchronisation source, the synchronization failure for returning the information comprising the synchronisation source to OAM is indicated, And the configuration information of the layer, sync class information comprising the adjacent base station for redefining that OAM is returned to is received, according to again true The layer, sync class information of fixed adjacent base station re-searches for synchronisation source, and synchronizes with the synchronisation source for re-searching for, and returns Step A.

The present invention proposes a kind of base station synchronization method based on local IP access systems:By based on local IP access systems Between network node, self adaptation is coordinated, synchronisation source relation in adjustment network design, realizes effectively synchronous between base station.
Specifically include three kinds of situations:
Situation 1:Base station distribution formula automatically adjusts layer, sync grade.
Base station is adjusted to itself frequency apart from the farthest available frequency of adjacent cell frequency when no synchronisation source is available, And it is customized for minimum layer, sync 0.Adjacent base station can be synchronized and be set to more higher leveled layer, sync.When multiple adjacent base stations Declare for lowermost layer synchronisation source when, need introduce Hedging mechanism.
Hedging mechanism is:Itself layer, sync grade is set to 0 by base station 1, and in time T0 searches for the same of neighbor cell Step layer is arranged, if T0 time-out does not all search out the co-frequency neighbor cell of layer, sync grade 0, base station 1 will be itself layer, sync grade steady It is set to 0;If the layer, sync grade for searching out co-frequency cell 2 is 0, starts intervalometer T1, and persistently monitor cell 2, if timing 2 layer, sync grade of device T1 time-out cells is still 0, and itself layer, sync is set to 1 by base station 1, and using 2 place base station of cell as synchronization Source.T0 is set greater than the value the time required to all adjacent cell layer, sync grades of base station measurement, and T1 is set greater than remeasuring Value the time required to one cell synchronous layer grade, T0 and T1 can be configured by OAM or base station is voluntarily arranged.Further to avoid touching Hit, T1 can be set to take arbitrary value by being uniformly distributed in an interval [Tmin, Tmax].
Situation 2:GW is managed collectively the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station;
Scheme one:GW stores the synchronization stratum information and information of adjacent cells of all base stations, when base station determines itself layer, sync etc. During level, layer, sync grade is sent to GW and determine request message, wherein the layer, sync grade voluntarily selected comprising base station, if GW is really Fixed base station selected layer, sync grade is not clashed with other adjacent base stations, to base station feedback confirmation, such as Fig. 6 a;It is otherwise anti- Feedback refuse information simultaneously carries the layer, sync class information configured for base station, such as Fig. 6 b.
Scheme two:GW directly configures layer, sync grade for base station;
GW stores base station synchronization layer class information and information of adjacent cells, as fig. 6 c, after base station access network network, Xiang Ji Send configuration of standing information, including layer, sync grade, can also include needing synchronous information of adjacent cells, and base station determines layer, sync Grade, and synchronisation source is determined according to the configuration for being received.When there is base station switch machine to make network design situation change, GW can To send reconfiguration message to AP, to reconfigure layer, sync class information of AP etc..Or,
As shown in fig 6d, after base station access network network, to GW send configuration solicited messages, wherein can include desired same Step layer grade, GW, can also include needing the adjacent little of synchronization to base station send configuration information including the layer, sync grade of configuration Area's information, base station determine layer, sync grade, and determine synchronisation source according to the configuration for being received.When there is base station switch Ji Shi Network Dept.s When administration's situation changes, GW can send reconfiguration message to AP, to reconfigure layer, sync class information of AP etc..
Scheme three:GW collects layer, sync class information to adjacent base station and feeds back;
GW does not store the synchronization stratum information of base station, after base station selected layer, sync grade, sends layer, sync grade letter to GW Breath;GW sends the inquiry of layer, sync grade to other base stations, if all adjacent base stations are not replied or reply confirmation, GW is to this Base station feedback confirmation, such as Fig. 6 e;If an adjacent base station replys refusal information and carries synchronization stratum information, this is believed by GW Breath is transmitted to the base station, such as Fig. 6 f.The base station adjusts layer, sync grade and according to adjacent cell layer, sync grade according to feedback information State determines synchronisation source.
Adjacent base station judges that the foundation that feedback acknowledgment is still refused is whether that the layer, sync grade current with itself conflicts.For example Adjacent base station AP1 and AP2 are set to layer, sync grade 0, and AP2 will feed back refuse information and advise that AP1 is set to layer, sync grade 1.
