Cell is managed being identified for cell allocation packets, by way of identification marking is realized with small district's groups in small district's groups, avoid and each cell is individually managed, so as to for reduce Network Management Equipment and management for interacting, facilitating cell relations of heterogeneous network cell etc. provide it is convenient and possible, so as to lift the efficiency of management to cell of network management system.The later use citing of management, specifically:Being configured in the configuration information of above-mentioned first community and second community also includes after the identification marking in above-mentioned group character and small district's groups:Cell is selected from the cell identified with same packets.The method for selecting cell can be arbitrary pre-defined rule, for example according to the sampling algorithm for specifically needing operation to be performed to determine, specific how to provide that the embodiment of the present invention refuses restriction, the application scenarios for the operation that several selection cells given below may be performed later are illustrated:
For example:When execution checks operation to the object resource of configuration management, the cell identified with same packets can be sampled, the resource of the cell of sampling is checked;The configuration data for all cells that need not be checked in the packet, so as to play simplified webmaster operation, reduces the effect of webmaster burden.In another example:In the management for carrying out network management performance measurement task, can be sampled selected section cell from the cell identified with same packets, performance measure setup is carried out to the cell that sampling is obtained, without all carrying out task of measuring performance configuration to all cells in the packet, so as to play simplified network performance management operation, the effect of network performance management data is reduced.
Further, management for convenience between small district's groups, the above method also includes:If there are neighbouring relations between small district's groups and other small district's groups that above-mentioned cell group information is specified, the adjacent group relation table of configuration identifies the neighbouring relations between the small district's groups and other small district's groups.
Management to Hetnet, is the management of cell first, and different according to networking mode can use different Managed Solutions, as a citing, referring to lower Fig. 3.
As shown in figure 3, the management for Hetnet cells to cell, it is necessary to be grouped(Cloud Group) convergence, the part needs to realize the configuration management of minizone relation in the management of cell group and group.Cloud group 1 (Cloud 1) region is one for the logic groups region that business needs and divides(), Group the isomery network element cell of strong correlation each other(Macro 1, Small cell 1, Small cell 2) logic groups region Cloud 1 has all been entered by planning, wherein, co-frequency cell Small cell 1 and Small cell 2 are all located at Macro 1 Coverage in, alien-frequency district Macro 2 also is located in Macro 1 coverage.(carrier frequency of ^0 2 is respectively by Macro 1 and ^^1 He2.Such as, using the region in the regions of Cloud 1 as a small district's groups, each cell has respective cell ID to 4 Jia( IDentity , ID ).The Small cell 3 in Macro2, Macro 3 and Macro 3 are not included in Cloud 1 in figure 3.
During the management for carrying out cell group, a group character can be distributed to each Group( group
), ID then the cell in same Group has identical group ID.For example, macro 1 and small cell
1st, in the configuration attributes of small cell 2 all each the value containing group ID=5, then illustrate these cells belong to be designated 5 Group.Group ID can not also be specially configured to, for example:Cell in macrocell and macrocell, directly can be used as group ID using the cell ID of macrocell.Certainly, for not using the cell of Logical grouping management(In other words it is not belonging to the cell of any small district's groups), without group ID configuration attributes a special value can also be used to carry out configuration attribute group ID, such as 0, represent that the cell is not belonging to any Group.
Cloud Group for multiple Macro cells may be included, also need to the management of cell relations between Macro cell, it is illustrated in fig. 4 shown below, the regions of Cloud 1 are one for the logic region that business needs and divides, the isomery network element cell of strong correlation all enters same logic region Cloud 1 by planning each other
All related cells in Cloud 1 include cell Macro 1, Macro 2, small cell 1, small cell
Small cell 3 in 2, Fig. 4 in Macro 3 and Macro 3 are not included in Cloud 1.Wherein, co-frequency cell Small cell 1 and Small cell 2 are all located in Macro 1 coverage, and alien-frequency district Macro 2 also is located in Macro 1 coverage.Macro 1 and the carrier frequency of Macro 2 are respectively F1 and F2.Therefore, for being also required to be managed between Macro 1 and Macro 2.Method in similar embodiment 1, for Macro 1 and the configuration attribute of the cells of Macro 2, can increase the groupIDo of a mark packet numbering information newly
The attribute of neighborhood region correlation chart (Neighbour Relation Table, NRT) in Hetnet networks, it is also desirable to do corresponding change.In NRT tables in embodiments of the present invention, when representing a neighboring BS relationship, not only only cell ID, optionally, in addition it is also necessary to increase the group character of respective cell(group ID ).
After the good group ID of cell configuration in each Group, targetedly optimization operation can be carried out in follow-up network management configuration operation.For example, when the object resource for performing configuration management checks operation, cell with identical group ID can be sampled and checked without checking all cell configuration datas in the packet, so as to play simplified webmaster operation, the effect of webmaster burden is reduced.In another example, entering In the management of row network management performance measurement task, the selected section cell that can be sampled from the cell with identical group ID carries out performance measure setup without all carrying out task of measuring performance configuration to all cells in the packet, so as to play simplified network performance management operation, the effect of network performance management data is reduced.
As another example, i.e., in same Cloud Group, the small cell of each RRU generations regard a part for Macro cells as, and all small cell share identical cell ID with Macro cells.At this moment, identical cell ID is shared due to small cell and Macro cells each cell is cannot be distinguished by small district's groups, unique identification marking in small district's groups can be so distributed for the slight area in cell group, the citing of two alternatives is following present:
Scheme 1 (optionl), one attribute item GroupCellAttributes of insertion in macro community configured informations, the relevant information for describing small cell, the attribute item can be an array or list(), list each array item or list member(Member) one small cell information of correspondence, corresponding with small cell numberings.
Scheme two(Option2 corresponding sub-instance SubCelllnstance), is increased in macro community configured informations, each small cell include small cell numberings and the distinctive configuration parameters of small cell as a macro sub-instance.
It is as shown in table 1 below, increase Groupld attributes in Macro cell attribute lists(It is another to be achieved in that without increasing single group character Groupld newly, directly it is used as group character with the Macro cell ID), GroupCellAttributes attributes or SubC stance attributes.

In table 1, in GroupCellAttributes or SubCelllnstance only comprising small cell i^'J itself such as, GroupCellAttributes:
{(picol, attr 11 ,attr 12,attr 13 , .

(picon, attrn 1 ,attrn2,attrn3 , )} ;
Or,
SubCelllntance:
picoID, attrl,attr2,attr3,
In above example, when this multiple small cell and some Macro cell share cell ID, NRT modification changes, necessary not only for the information that Macro cells are listed in NRT tables, also need to list each small cell information, for indicating the relation between small cell and Macro and other small cell.Because small cell ID is identical, therefore each small cell can be distinguished using such as RRU numberings mode.
After the good group ID of cell configuration in each Group, targetedly optimization operation can be carried out in follow-up network management configuration operation.For example, when the object resource for performing configuration management checks operation, small cells with identical group ID can be sampled and checked without checking all small cell configuration datas in the packet, so as to play simplified webmaster operation, the effect of webmaster burden is reduced.
Two above is exemplified as that between the cell management in small district's groups, small district's groups corresponding configuration management can also be introduced.Concrete example is as follows:
It because group character is embodied inside the configuration attribute of cell, therefore can only need to increase the management of neighbor cell group, that is, introduce the neighbouring relations that adjacent group relation table is used for representing some small district's groups and other small district's groups.Implementation can be the sheet form using relational database:Each small district's groups organize each record in relation table, neighbour's group relation table containing a neighbour can identify some adjacent packet, can directly record the mark of adjacent packets.For example, as shown in table 2, some packet A there can be following adjacent group relation table, represent that packet A and packet X, Y, Z...R there are neighbouring relations.
