Embodiment
In order to solve the problems, such as that prior art is present, the embodiment of the present invention separates for carrying(Mainly chain of command and use
Family face separates)The network architecture, there is provided a kind of measurement report method based on UE.
In embodiments of the present invention, for the network architecture of carrying separation, new measurement event is defined, with auxiliary
Macro cell/eNB carry out the judgement of carrying switching/convergence.Wherein new measurement event can be following a kind of or more
Kind:
(1)Local cell channel qualities are less than thresholding, and other cell channel qualities are higher than thresholding, wherein described other
Cell can be Macro cell or other adjacent cells(Local cell cells i.e. adjacent with Local cell).
For convenience's sake, the event is referred to as EventA9 in the embodiment of the present invention.
(2)Local cell channel qualities are less than thresholding, and some cell is cell best in measurement set of cells(Wherein
It is that network is pre-configured with to UE to measure set of cells, and cell therein can be other adjacent cells, can also include Macro
Cell, or the combination of these cells);Further, the signal quality of the best cell is higher than thresholding.For convenience's sake, originally
The event is referred to as EventA10 in inventive embodiments.
(3)Other cell channel qualities are higher than Local cell plus offset, wherein other cell can be
Macro cell or other adjacent cells.For convenience's sake, the event is referred to as in the embodiment of the present invention
EventA11。
As shown in figure 5, Macro eNB can send measurement configuration information by RRC connection reconfiguration courses to UE, measurement is matched somebody with somebody
The institutional framework of confidence breath is as follows:
(a)Measurement object(measurement object):Using frequency as base unit, the measurement object that is each configured
For an independent frequency, possess single measurement object mark(ID), carrier frequency, adjacent cell black and white name can be included below
List, need to report CGI(Cell Global Identity)The content such as cell.
(b)Report configuration(report configuration):It is divided into event triggering according to triggering type to report and the cycle
Triggering reports, and each reports configuration to possess single ID.The door for reporting some event of configuration meeting dispensing of event trigger type
Limit value and the duration for meeting trigger condition(Time to Trigger).Comprise in addition triggering measurement amount, reporting measurement
Measure, report the information such as interval, number.
Measurement has reported three kinds of triggering modes:Event triggering reports, periodic report, event triggering periodic report.These three
Mode is made a distinction according to reporting the combination of various parameters in configuration.The triggering type in configuration is reported to be touched for event for example, working as
Hair, and the dispensing threshold value of some event and meet the relevant parameters such as the duration of trigger condition, it is configured without measuring
When being spaced or report the parameters such as number, UE will be reported according to an event triggered fashion.
The EventA9 events defined for the embodiment of the present invention are, it is necessary to configured threshold(The thresholding is channel quality parameter),
And can further distributing sustainable time(Time to Trigger), corresponding trigger condition is:The Local that UE is currently located
Cell channel qualities are less than the thresholding, and other cell channel qualities are higher than the thresholding, and the duration of the state is not less than
Time to Trigger。
The Event A10 events defined for the embodiment of the present invention are, it is necessary to configured threshold(The thresholding is joined for channel quality
Number), and can further distributing sustainable time with measurement set of cells(Time to Trigger), corresponding trigger condition is:UE
The Local cell channel qualities being currently located are less than the thresholding, and the duration of the state is not less than Time to
Trigger;Or trigger condition is:The Local cell channel qualities that UE is currently located are less than the thresholding, measure set of cells
The channel quality of the best cell of middle channel quality is higher than the thresholding, and the duration of the state is not less than Time to
Trigger。
The Event A11 events that are defined for the embodiment of the present invention, and can be further, it is necessary to configurating channel mass shift amount
The distributing sustainable time(Time to Trigger), corresponding trigger condition is:The Local cell channel qualities that UE is currently located
Less than other cell channel qualities and the offset sum.
(c)Measurement mark(measurement ID):Single ID, a measurement object can be connected simultaneously and is matched somebody with somebody with reporting
Put.If having reached the thresholding for opening measurement, UE can judge whether to this kind measurement according to the presence or absence of measurement mark.
(d)Other parameters:It is also possible that measurement amount configures, other ginsengs such as thresholding and speed state parameter are opened in measurement
Number.
Fig. 6 has been illustrated measurement object, reports the relation of configuration and measurement mark three.
The measurement configuration information that UE issues according to Macro eNB(It is i.e. above-mentioned to be cut for aiding in Macro eNB to carry out carrying
Change/converge the relevant configuration metrical information of the measurement event of judgement)Measure, report measurement results, and Macro eNB roots
According to measurement result carry out cell switching flow, can as shown in fig. 7, comprises:
Step 701, UE measures according to the Macro eNB measurement configuration informations configured, and the measurement configuration information is to use
The measurement event of carrying switching/convergence judgement is carried out in auxiliary Macro eNB(I.e. above-mentioned Event A 9, Event A 10,
One of Event A11 or combination)Measurement of correlation configuration information.
Step 702, when UE meets that measurement reports trigger condition according to measurement result judgement, send and measure to Macro eNB
Reporting message(That is measurement report).
Specifically, every measurement reporting message is only capable of reporting the corresponding content of a measurement mark, i.e. under a frequency
Meet that correlation reports the cell of configuration, the content that measurement reporting message includes mainly has:
(a)Measurement mark, this measurement reporting message can be identified and triggered by which kind of event;
(b)Each measurement amount of this cell, such as RSRP(Reference Signal Received Power, reference signal receive
Power)And RSRQ(Reference Signal Received Quality, Reference Signal Received Quality;
(c)Carry the physical-layer cell ID of switching target small area;
(d)Other cell measurement amounts(Whether report other cell measurement amounts report with CGI depending on whether network configures UE
These are information-related).
Specifically, the flow that measurement reports is as follows:UE is searched out by measurement and is met to report configuration in some measurement object
Cell, assessed, when cell within a certain period of time(Time To Trigger)All meet entry criteria, by the cell quilt
Included in report list;Once there is new cell to enter report list, it will trigger and report process.After reporting process to trigger,
UE will measure mark, this cell measurement information, measurement information in neighbor cell are filled in measurement reporting message.Wherein, adjacent cell measurement
The acquisition process of information is:The cell included in report list is subjected to quality row according to the reporting measurement amount given in configuration
Sequence, measurement reporting message is inserted by order from high in the end.Wherein, the number of the cell included in report list is by following several
Individual conditional decision:
(a)The entry criteria of report list:When the measurement amount of some cell has reached access criterion(For example, this cell
Channel quality is less than thresholding);
(b)Report list leaves condition:Criterion is left when the measurement amount of some cell has reached(For example, this cell
Channel quality is higher than thresholding);
(c)Cell is comprised in the condition of report list:When some cell within a certain period of time(Time To Trigger)
All meet the entry criteria of report list, then will be comprised in report list.
(d)The condition that cell is deleted from report list:When some cell within a certain period of time(Time To
Trigger)All meet the condition of leaving of report list, then will be deleted from report list.
When giving the correct time on UE is carried out, all cells still remained in report list can all be reported network.
Step 703, Macro eNB are according to the UE received measurement reporting message, carry out carrying switch decision, and according to
Court verdict carries out carrying switching(Carrying is switched to other Local cell from current Local cell)Or carrying convergence(Will
Carrying switches back into Macro cell from current Local cell).Specifically, when Macro eNB judgement needs carry out carrying switching
Or during carrying convergence, carrying handover request is sent to the UE, to indicate that carrying is switched to Target cell by UE.
It is can be seen that by above-mentioned flow because Macro eNB will be used to aid in Macro eNB to carry out carrying switching/remittance
The measurement event of poly- judgement is allocated to UE, so that UE measures and measured reporting message according to the measurement event, and then makes
Macro eNB can carry out carrying switch decision in time according to measurement reporting message, avoid data of the UE in Local cell
Transmission, enhance Consumer's Experience.
