Description

A kind of method and system of search network
Technical field
The invention belongs to mobile communication field more particularly to a kind of method and systems of search network.
Background technology
LTE(Long Term Evolution, long term evolution)/GSM(Global System For Mobile Communication, global mobile communication)When the initial network selection of double-module terminal start-up, if the priority of setting GSM network is high, Then terminal first search GSM network and it is stationed on a gsm network;If the priority for setting LTE network is high, terminal is preferentially searched Rope LTE network is simultaneously stationed on an LTE network, but existing LTE terminal priority of registration LTE network.
When the target network of LTE/GSM dual-mode terminals is LTE network, due to LTE network frequency band is more, with wide, both There is no LTE network adjacent cell frequency information, when the LTE cell informations also not preserved are available, executes initial network selection stream Journey needs to scan the whole bandwidth for the whole LTE frequency bands supported, takes very long.
E-UTRAN(Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network, evolution it is general Land radio access web)In initial cell selection flow under carrier radio frequency channel unknown situation, LTE/GSM dual-mode terminals are by root Whole radio-frequency channels that E-UTRAN frequency bands are scanned according to its ability, to find an applicable cell.In each carrier frequency, LTE/GSM dual-mode terminals only need to search for strongest cell.Once finding applicable cell, the cell is just selected.
Wherein, E-UTRAN and LTE can be general, when emphasizing wireless access network usually using E-UTRAN.
LTE/GSM dual-mode terminals need to start initial ranging network in the case where E-UTRAN carrier radio frequency channels are unknown Flow scans all radio-frequency channels of whole E-UTRAN frequency bands of its support.There are 26 LTE FDD at present(Frequency Division Duplex, frequency division duplex)Frequency band and 12 LTE TDD(Time Division Duplex, time division duplex)Frequently Band, LTE/GSM dual-mode terminals chip can support at least six LTE frequency bands simultaneously.It is initial after LTE/GSM double-module terminal start-ups When network selection, as international roaming is switched on for the first time, and there is no any LTE network cell frequency information in LTE/GSM dual-mode terminals In the case of, the whole bandwidth for scanning the whole LTE frequency bands supported is needed, is taken very long.
At present, no the relevant technologies relate to how to solve the problems, such as that the initial network selection time takes longer.

Step 13, LTE/GSM dual-mode terminals obtain LTE network adjacent cell frequency information from the GSM network of registration.
Wherein, GSM network can be broadcasted by system message, and LTE/GSM dual-mode terminals are by system message from GSM Network receives the adjacent cell frequency information of LTE network.
Step 14, LTE network search process is started according to the LTE network adjacent cell frequency information of acquisition.
In this step, search is directly initiated, the preferential of the LTE network adjacent cell frequency for including in system message is ignored Grade, ignores the RLA_C of serving cell(Received signal level)With THRESH_priority_search(Search priority thresholding) Comparison.
Step 15, first applicable LTE network cell is searched, and is switched over.
Wherein, LTE/GSM dual-mode terminals control is switched to first applicable LTE network cell.It is mentioned here to be applicable in Cell refers to the cell that normal service can be stationed and be obtained to LTE terminal.
In the present invention, when the target network of LTE/GSM dual-mode terminals is LTE network, it is switched on using GSM network and is initially selected The net time is switched on short advantage of initial network selection time than LTE network.When being switched on initial network selection, GSM network search, note are executed Volume receives system message, obtains LTE network adjacent cell frequency information.For example, at the idling mode, upon request by a user, moving Dynamic platform manually, can determine GSM850 in 15 seconds to 20 seconds(15 seconds)/900(15 seconds)/1800(20 seconds)/1900 (20 seconds)In available PLMN(Public Land Mobile Network, public land mobile network), if it is automatic side Formula, it is determined that PLMN that is available and obtaining permission.
After obtaining LTE network adjacent cell frequency information, ignore the LTE network adjacent cell frequency for including in system message The priority of rate ignores the RLA_C of serving cell(Received signal level)With THRESH_priority_search(Search is preferential Grade thresholding)Comparison, directly using obtain LTE network adjacent cell frequency information start LTE network search process immediately, hold The search and measurement of row LTE network adjacent cell, and after searching first applicable LTE network cell, be switched to this and be applicable in LTE network cell.Whole process needs most 8 of the LTE network frequency searched for.
The present invention is without carrying out other condition judgments, that is, as long as receiving LTE network adjacent cell frequency information, Start search, as long as searching applicable cell, starts switching, save and judge the time accordingly.Present invention saves LTE/ GSM dual-mode terminals execute the cell reselection algorithm based on precedence information in an idle state(It is cut from GSM network to LTE network It changes)The required time without scanning whole working bands, also, monitors that first applicable cell just stops search.Cause This, the present invention can effectively shorten the initial network selection time.
In addition, switching between sequence and network of the present invention by LTE/GSM dual-mode terminal command deployment networks, it can be ensured that by The switching of GSM network to LTE network executes.Implementation method is simple, is not related to the modification of network side specification.
