Embodiment
Express clearly clear for making the object, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention, below in conjunction with drawings and the specific embodiments, the present invention is further described in more detail.
In embodiments of the present invention, when macrocell or small-cell overload, be biased by the CRE adjusting community, the load of balanced minizone effectively, thus effective utilization system resource, ensure the service quality of user.
See the method flow schematic diagram that accompanying drawing 1 is load balancing in heterogeneous network, specifically comprise the following steps:
101, this cell load exceedes default thresholding, triggers other cell update resource statuss, and periodically reports the measurement result of other communities.
Thresholding according to presetting judges whether this community transships, if this cell load exceedes default thresholding, then triggers other cell update resource statuss, and periodically reports the measurement result of other communities.
102, measurement result lower than preset threshold value, then according to fixed step size adjust this community CRE be biased.
The measurement result of other communities lower than the threshold value preset, then illustrates the load that can be biased by adjustment CRE this community balanced and other communities.Then, again detect the load of this community, if find this cell-overload, then again adjust.
Community in heterogeneous network comprises macrocell and small-cell.In the identical coverage of macrocell, there is at least one small-cell.Technical scheme of the present invention is described in detail respectively below with regard to macrocell overloading and small-cell overload.
A: macrocell load exceedes the first default thresholding.
101a, macrocell, to all small-cells triggers resource state updating process within the scope of it, require that small-cell is according to the measuring object periodic report measurement result of request.
102a, macrocell, according to the measurement result of the multiple small-cells received, judge the loading condition of small-cell, one by one until travel through all small-cells:
If the measurement result value that small-cell reports is lower than the first threshold preset, and the CRE of small-cell is less than the first default maximum, then the CRE of small-cell is biased increase by first fixed step size.
Small-cell increases CRE and is biased and the fractional load of macrocell transfer can be come, to reduce the load of macrocell.Wherein, the first thresholding, first threshold, the first maximum and the first fixed step size are all preset according to concrete system mode.
103a, macrocell, by biased by X2 interface for the CRE after independently upgrading, send to corresponding small-cell, to hold consultation, and wait for the confirmation of small-cell.
B: small-cell load exceedes the second default thresholding.
101b, small-cell, to the macrocell triggers resource state updating process covered, require that macrocell is according to the measuring object periodic report measurement result of request.
102b, small-cell, according to the measurement result of the macrocell received, judge the loading condition of macrocell:
If the CRE of small-cell lower than the Second Threshold preset, is then biased minimizing second fixed step size by the measurement result that macrocell reports.
Small-cell minimizing CRE is biased by small-cell CRE area reduction or can close this function, to reduce the load of small-cell.Wherein, the second thresholding, Second Threshold, the second maximum and the second fixed step size are all preset according to concrete system mode.
CRE after independently upgrading is biased and sends to corresponding macrocell by X2 interface by 103c, small-cell, to hold consultation, and waits for the confirmation of macrocell.
See the schematic diagram that accompanying drawing 2 is after employing technical solution of the present invention adjusts.When macrocell heavy duty, small-cell 1 and small-cell 2 are in underloading, and increase biased for its CRE, cell range is expanded further, can reduce the load of macrocell.During the heavy duty of small-cell 3, be biased by reducing its CRE, the fractional load in CRE region is moved to macrocell, reduce the load of small-cell 3.Visible, the load balancing between macrocell and three small-cells can be realized by said process, thus ensure the service quality of user better.
