Description

Method and device for the efficient random access of user equipment
Technical field
The present invention relates to mobile communication fields, more particularly, to the method for user's random access in mobile communication field And device.
Background technique
Recently in the middle beginning of LTE Release-12 (Long Term Evolution, LTE) about low cost and covering Enhance machine type communication (Machine Type Communication, the MTC) user of (Coverage Enhanced, CE) The target of the job of equipment (User Equipment, UE) first is that standardization correspond to 15dB coverage enhancement.
For the coverage enhancement of Physical Random Access Channel (Physical Random Access Channel, PRACH), It assume that and repeat to send to improve coverage area with existing PRACH lead code form, rather than it is leading to introduce new PRACH Code format.
In order to make influence of the coverage enhancement for spectrum efficiency that there is flexible controllability, multiple PRACH are needed support Lead code number of repetition.In the random access procedure, how from the initial random access number of repetition of multiple candidates one is selected A suitable random access number of repetition, this is that a needs further solve the problems, such as.
In general, following scheme is in order to determine PRACH lead code number of repetition in the random access procedure for consideration:
Optinal plan 1: user equipment determines that PRACH lead code repeats according to the measured value of downlink (such as: RSRP value) Number.For this scheme, user equipment can determine number of repetition based on measured value and mapping table.The mapping table will join It is associated with number of repetition to examine signal reception power (Reference Signal Receiving Power, RSRP).User sets It is standby the downlink measurements of user equipment, such as the reference measured (can be referred to according to its actually located covering state Signal reception power etc.) adjust PRACH lead code number of repetition.But under severe wireless environment, the measurement of RSRP is Insecure (typical error is +/- 9dB).And it is required that the MTC user equipment of coverage enhancement, which is usually located at, covers poor ground Side.So determining that required coverage enhancement grade may be problematic according to RSRP (and the distance of estimation is lost).
Optinal plan 2: user equipment emits since the smallest PRACH lead code number of repetition to determine that PRACH is leading Code number of repetition.In optinal plan 2, similar to being stepped up of power, (namely normal user equipments are in random access procedure The method of middle use), in the state of initial access, user equipment can select the smallest PRACH lead code number of repetition first, And PRACH lead code number of repetition is gradually increased in subsequent random access is attempted, until reaching maximum PRACH lead code Number of repetition.Therefore, the MTC user equipment of institute's some need coverage enhancement can be held from the smallest PRACH lead code number of repetition Begin to transmit, in this case will lead to unnecessary PRACH preamble transmissions number (for example, the PRACH lead code repetition time of transmission Number is lower than number of repetition actually required) it may will increase.In the grade of low number of repetition, PRACH lead code and other use A possibility that Serious conflicts occurs for family equipment can be very big.
Optinal plan 3: user equipment directlys adopt maximum PRACH lead code number of repetition.In optinal plan 3, It is initially accessed status user equipment and always selects maximum PRACH lead code number of repetition.If most of MTC user equipmenies are only Low or medium coverage enhancement grade is needed, this scheme generates resource overhead in the worst case, the resource always Expense is not only from the transmission with PRACH lead code, the also transmission of message 2/3/4 and corresponding in random access procedure Control channel (physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) and physical uplink control channel (PUCCH)) expense.
Optinal plan 4: user equipment is once successfully accessed used PRACH lead code number of repetition using preceding.Can It selects in scheme 4, since in general, CE-MTC user equipment is generally considered close to fixation, for preceding primary The weight of success random access (i.e. in the upper primary connection that CE-MTC user equipment enters idle mode or is in close state) Again number may stand good in current random access.Therefore, base station latest configuration can be used in CE-MTC user equipment Or the PRACH lead code number of repetition that is successfully accessed of last time executes this random access.
It is secondary that above four kinds of optinal plans do not fully consider that PRACH lead code caused by the error of downlink measured value repeats The irrationality of number selection does not account for selecting rushing between user brought by single PRACH lead code number of repetition It is prominent.Therefore, designing one kind can be necessary with the PRACH lead code number of repetition of dynamic regulation.

Specific embodiment
In the following detailed description of the preferred embodiment, reference is constituted to the appended attached drawing of present invention a part.Institute Attached attached drawing, which has been illustrated by way of example, can be realized specific embodiment.Exemplary embodiment is not intended to Exhaustive all embodiments according to the present invention.It is appreciated that without departing from the scope of the present invention, can use other Embodiment can also carry out the modification of structure or logic.Therefore, it is below specific descriptions and it is unrestricted, and this The range of invention is defined by the claims appended hereto.It should be noted that although describing this hair in attached drawing with particular order The step of bright middle method, but this does not require that or implies must execute these operations in this particular order, or It is to have to carry out operation shown in whole to be just able to achieve desired as a result, on the contrary, step described herein can change and hold Row sequence.Additionally or alternatively, it is convenient to omit multiple steps are merged into step and executed by certain steps, and/or by one A step decomposes dimension execution of multiple steps.
Normally, with the increase of Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (Signal to Interference&Noise Ratio, SINR), The measuring accuracy of RSRP can improve.Conversely, the measuring accuracy of RSRP can also reduce namely RSRP when SINR is reduced Measurement error will increase.Although the measuring accuracy of RSRP can be improved by extending measurement period, such as by multiple subframes The measured value of RSRP be averaged, even if in this way, measurement error still has and can not completely eliminate.
In order to verify potential impact of the measurement error to above scheme 1 of RSRP, it is assumed that one there are three PRACH lead codes The system and a needs of number of repetition and each number of repetition corresponding to the coverage area enhancing (up to 15dB) of 5dB The CE-MTC user equipment of 8dB coverage enhancement.When RSRP measurement error is more than 3dB, had according to mapping table as shown in Figure 1 more A PRACH number of repetition is available, causes the uncertainty of PRACH number of repetition in this way.For example, Fig. 1 shows PRACH Lead code number of repetition, coverage enhancement grade, the mapping table of corresponding relationship between RSRP measured value and measurement threshold value, according to Fig. 1 If coverage enhancement grade required for user equipment is 8dB, in the ideal case, the value of the RSRP of the user equipment is- 113dBm, then the PRACH lead code number of repetition corresponding to it is 20 times.When RSRP measurement error range is 3.5dB, i.e., When the measured value of RSRP is that -109.5dBm arrives -116.5dBm, according to Fig. 1, PRACH lead code number of repetition can be 10,20, Any one in 50.Therefore, if selected in the insecure situation of measured value of RSRP based on downlink measured value PRACH lead code number of repetition and CE-MTC user equipment, which are randomly chosen a PRACH lead code, will have similar performance. In such case, it is contemplated that the semi-static characteristic of CE-MTC user equipment, CE- user equipment can recorde its last time success It is connected to the PRACH lead code number of repetition of the random access of the same base station, and in random access next time to same base station Initial access state when attempt reuse identical number of repetition.Downlink in the present invention is measured using RSRP as one Example, but it is not limited merely to RSRP, the downlink measurement in the present invention may include being adapted to determine that appointing for PRACH lead code A kind of what downlink measured value.It is described efficiently at random although present embodiments describing by example of CE-MTC user equipment The process of access, it should be appreciated by those skilled in the art that obviously the present invention is not limited merely to CE-MTC user equipment.
In the first embodiment, the example that RSRP measured value is measured as downlink.In the first embodiment, it introduces Measurement threshold value.When the absolute value of the difference between newest RSRP measured value and previous RSRP measured value is greater than measurement threshold Value, CE-MTC user equipment reselect PRACH lead code number of repetition according to mapping table;Otherwise, CE-MTC user equipment will Using it is the configuration of last base station or it is preceding be once successfully accessed used in PRACH lead code number of repetition.Network can be with CE- The mobility of MTC user equipment to measure threshold value for the CE-MTC user device configuration.Fig. 2 shows user equipmenies 201 first The flow chart of the secondary lead code number of repetition selection for accessing network or being lost a preceding random access information is simultaneously hereinafter right Each step is described in detail.
Step 202: if CE-MTC user equipment 201 did not always access network or once connect at random before being lost The relevant information entered, in the original state of this random access, CE-MTC user equipment 201 obtains downlink measured value by measurement (for example, RSRP measured value) determines PRACH lead code number of repetition.For example, RSRP acquired in CE-MTC user equipment 201 Measured value is -113dBm.
Step 204: after obtaining RSRP measured value, CE-MTC user equipment 201 is selected according to mapping table as shown in Figure 1 PRACH lead code number of repetition is 20.The initial value of mapping table can be pre-configured in CE-MTC user equipment 201, can also To be sent to CE-MTC user equipment 201 in down channel by base station 203.
Step 206: according to the selected PRACH lead code number of repetition of CE-MTC user equipment 201, CE-MTC user is set Standby 201 send lead code to base station 203.
Step 208: if CE-MTC user equipment 201 can not be successfully accessed to base station 203 namely CE-MTC user Equipment 201 is not received by the random access response from base station 203, then improves PRACH lead code according to the mapping table Number of repetition is until receiving from the random access response of base station 203 or before reaching maximum PRACH in the mapping table Leading code number of repetition.For example, not received yet when CE-MTC user equipment 201 repeats to send lead code 20 times from base station 203 Stochastic phase, number of repetition is increased to 50 times by CE-MTC user equipment 201 according to mapping table.
Step 210: if CE-MTC user equipment 201 has received from the random access response of base station 203 after It is continuous to execute random access procedure and record downlink measured value.
Step 212: core network element 205, such as mobile management entity (Mobility Management Entity, MME) the mobility overview of CE-MTC user equipment 201 is divided into according to the mobility history information of CE-MTC user equipment 201 Multiple ranks (for example, Hypomobility, middle mobility and high mobility).Mobility overview include CE-MTC user equipment 201 with The relevant feature of mobility, such as it is by the same base that whether CE-MTC user equipment, which is connected to network all in long time, It stands or the CE-MTC user equipment switches between each base station frequently.Core network element 205 is according to CE-MTC user The number of connected base station in fixed time period of equipment 201 determines and updates the mobility feature of the user.For example, If CE-MTC user equipment 201 is all to be connected to network, CE-MTC user by the same base station within 72 hours Equipment 201 is Hypomobility user equipment;If different periods of the CE-MTC user equipment 201 within 72 hours pass through 2 or 3 or 4 base stations are connected to network, then the CE-MTC user equipment 201 is middle mobility user equipment;Such as Fruit CE-MTC user equipment 201 is connected to network by 4 or more base stations in the different periods within 72 hours, then The CE-MTC user equipment 201 is high-mobility users equipment.MME in core net can also exist according to user equipment 201 The number of connected base station divides more mobility grades in fixed time period.Core network element can also according to for example with The movement speed of family equipment, switching frequency etc. divide the mobility grade of user equipment 201.
Step 214: base station 203 sends the mobility of user equipment 201 to core network element 205 by, for example, S1 interface The request of overview.
Step 216: core network element 205 sends CE-MTC user equipment 201 by, for example, S1 interface, Xiang Jizhan 203 Mobility overview.
Step 218: base station 203 is the user equipment according to the mobility overview of the CE-MTC user equipment 201 received Configuration measurement threshold value.The range of the measuring accuracy and RSRP measured value of coverage enhancement grade and user equipment measured value has It closes.In general, mapping as shown in figure 1 represents, and the value of RSRP is smaller, the measured value of CE-MTC user equipment 201 it is accurate Degree is lower, and required coverage area enhancing higher grade, thus measures threshold value and also increase accordingly.For example, working as RSRP measured value Range be -110dBm arrive -115dBm when, measurement threshold value value range be 6-8dB.
Step 220: when base station 203 is believed from the mobility overview that core network element 205 receives CE-MTC user equipment 201 Breath, such as when the mobility profile information is designated as middle mobility, base station is that each RSRP range of the user configures measurement Threshold value.When measurement threshold value changes, base station 203 can be by updated measurement threshold value to CE-MTC user equipment 201.User Equipment 201 then updates the corresponding measurement threshold value in mapping table.Base station 203 can also will be configured in a manner of broadcast or unicast Measurement threshold value be sent to CE-MTC user equipment 201, for example, base station 203 can be in physical layer, MAC layer or radio resource control It makes in (Radio Resource Control, RRC) message to 201 transmission measurement threshold value of CE-MTC user equipment.When base station 203 The mobility profile information of CE-MTC user equipment 201 is received from core network element 205 and the mobile message is designated as low shifting When dynamic property or high mobility, equally, base station 203 can be set CE-MTC user in physical layer, MAC layer or RRC information Standby 201 mobility profile information is transferred to CE-MTC user equipment 201.It base station 203 can also be in the case where any other be suitable The mobility profile information or measurement threshold value are transmitted to CE-MTC user equipment 201 in any other suitable format in row channel.
For example, base station 203 is received from the general about 201 mobility of CE-MTC user equipment of core network element 205 When condition is middle mobility, base station 203 is that the configuration measurement threshold value of CE-MTC user equipment 201 is 8dB and sends the measurement threshold value To CE-MTC user equipment 201, the corresponding measurement threshold value in mapping table is updated to 8dB by user equipment 201.
Fig. 3 shows another flow chart and below of the lead code number of repetition selection of CE-MTC user equipment 201 In each step is described in detail.
Step 302:CE-MTC user equipment 201 obtains newest RSRP measured value by measurement.For example, CE-MTC user The newest RSRP measured value of equipment is -122dBm.
Step 304:CE-MTC user equipment 201 according to from the mobility overview that base station 203 receives come before selecting PRACH Leading code number of repetition.
When the mobility overview of CE-MTC user equipment 201 is designated as middle mobility, CE-MTC user equipment 201 is calculated The absolute value of newest downlink measured value and the preceding difference being once successfully accessed between the downlink measured value of base station 203, and according to PRACH lead code number of repetition in the absolute value selection random access procedure of difference.Wherein when the absolute value of difference is less than institute When stating measurement threshold value, the PRACH lead code number of repetition of base station 203 is once successfully accessed to before selecting, otherwise according to mapping table Select PRACH lead code number of repetition.
According to newest RSRP measured value -122dBm (such as step 304) and the preceding RSRP measured value-being once successfully accessed 113dBm (step 202) and measurement threshold value 8dB (step 220), it can be deduced that newest RSRP measured value and preceding primary success The absolute value of the difference of the RSRP measured value of access is 9dB.So according to mapping table select PRACH lead code number of repetition for 50。
When the mobility overview of CE-MTC user equipment 201 is designated as Hypomobility, once it is successfully accessed to using preceding The PRACH lead code number of repetition of base station 203.For example, the preceding of CE-MTC user equipment 201 is once successfully accessed to base station 203 PRACH lead code number of repetition be 50 times, then CE-MTC user equipment 201 using number of repetition 50 be used as PRACH lead code Number of repetition.It can also configure corresponding measurement threshold value to be greater than 15dB to indicate once to be successfully accessed to base station 203 using preceding PRACH lead code number of repetition.
When the mobility overview of CE-MTC user equipment 201 is designated as high mobility, according to newest downlink measured value PRACH lead code number of repetition is determined with mapping table.For example, according to reflecting in newest RSRP measured value -113dBm and Fig. 1 Firing table, PRACH lead code number of repetition are 50 times.0 can also be set by corresponding measurement threshold value.When CE-MTC user equipment 201 calculate the absolute value of newest downlink measured value and the preceding difference being once successfully accessed between the downlink measured value of base station 203 When, the absolute value of difference is more than or equal to 0, then selects the PRACH lead code number of repetition according to mapping table.
Step 306: according to the selected PRACH lead code number of repetition of CE-MTC user equipment 201, CE-MTC user is set Standby 201 send lead code to base station 203.
Step 308: if CE-MTC user equipment 201 can not be successfully accessed to base station 203 namely CE-MTC user Equipment 201 is not received by the random access response from base station 203, then improves PRACH lead code according to mapping table and repeat Number until receive from base station 203 random access response or reach maximum PRACH lead code in the mapping table Number of repetition.
Step 310: if CE-MTC user equipment 201 has received from the random access response of base station 203 after It is continuous to execute random access procedure and record downlink measured value.
Step 312 in Fig. 3 is identical to the step 212 in step 320 and Fig. 2 to step 220, and details are not described herein.
Fig. 4 shows the actual effect of the coverage enhancement in first embodiment when CE-MTC user equipment is middle mobility Figure.By introduce one can dynamic regulation measurement threshold value, PRACH lead code number of repetition is selected based on downlink measured value (optinal plan 1) and based on last successfully PRACH lead code number of repetition (optinal plan of the random access to the same base station 4) using area can be adjusted dynamically.When measuring threshold value equal to 0, CE-MTC user equipment is according to downlink measured value PRACH lead code number of repetition is selected with mapping table;When measurement threshold value is more than 15dB, that is, correspond to maximum When the grade of coverage enhancement, CE-MTC user equipment uses the previous PRACH lead code weight for being successfully accessed to the same base station Again it counts.Random access procedure can be optimized in this way to avoid between difference CE-MTC user equipment in the random access procedure It conflicts with each other, and reduces unnecessary PRACH lead code number of repetition, improve the level of resources utilization.
In a second embodiment, the PRACH according to corresponding to newest RSRP measured value of CE-MTC user equipment 201 is leading Code number of repetition and be that the PRACH lead code number of repetition that CE-MTC user equipment 201 configures updates from base station 203 Mapping table.Fig. 5 shows the flow chart of PRACH lead code number of repetition selection according to the second embodiment and hereinafter to every One step is described in detail.
Step 402: if CE-MTC user equipment 201 did not always access network or once connect at random before being lost The relevant information entered, in the original state of this random access, CE-MTC user equipment 201 obtains downlink measured value by measurement (for example, RSRP measured value) determines PRACH lead code number of repetition.For example, RSRP acquired in CE-MTC user equipment 201 Measured value is -113dBm.
Step 404: after obtaining RSRP measured value, CE-MTC user equipment 201 is selected according to mapping table as shown in Figure 1 Selecting PRACH lead code number of repetition is 20.The initial value of mapping table can be pre-configured in CE-MTC user equipment 201, CE-MTC user equipment 201 can be sent in down channel by base station 203.
Step 406: according to the selected PRACH lead code number of repetition of CE-MTC user equipment 201, CE-MTC user is set Standby 201 send lead code to base station 203.
Step 408: if CE-MTC user equipment 201 can not be successfully accessed to base station 203 namely CE-MTC user Equipment 201 is not received by the random access response from base station 203, then improves PRACH lead code according to the mapping table Number of repetition is until receiving from the random access response of base station 203 or before reaching maximum PRACH in the mapping table Leading code number of repetition.For example, not received yet when CE-MTC user equipment 201 repeats to send lead code 20 times from base station 203 Stochastic phase, number of repetition is increased to 50 times by CE-MTC user equipment 201 according to mapping table.
Step 410: if CE-MTC user equipment 201 has received from the random access response of base station 203 after It is continuous to execute random access procedure.
Step 412: base station 203 is CE-MTC use according to the successful PRACH lead code number of repetition of CE-MTC user equipment 201 Family equipment 201 configures PRACH lead code number of repetition next time.
Step 414: base station 203 sends PRACH lead code number of repetition next time to CE-MTC user equipment 201.Base station 203 by the PRACH lead code number of repetition configured for CE-MTC user equipment 201 by physical layer, MAC layer or RRC information or Any suitable downlink transmission mode is sent to the CE-MTC user equipment.If base station 201 has been incited somebody to action in the random access procedure The lead code number of repetition is sent to CE-MTC user equipment 201 (such as by message 4 in random access procedure) then step 414 can be omitted.
Step 416:CE-MTC user equipment 201 receives the lead code number of repetition from base station 203 and according to reception To from base station 203 lead code number of repetition and newest downlink measured value come update the lead code in mapping table repeat Number.If the two is different, will receive from base station 203 is PRACH that CE-MTC user equipment 201 configures Lead code number of repetition is updated into mapping table.It is can be effectively reduced in this way due to before downlink measurement error bring PRACH The excessive or very few problem of leading code number of repetition, to reduce unnecessary resource consumption.
For example, in step 402, RSRP measured value acquired in CE-MTC user equipment 201 is -113dBm.Also, base It stands and 203 learns that random access number of repetition that user 201 is successfully accessed is 50 times.So base station 203 is secondary by random access repetition Number 50 is configured to PRACH lead code number of repetition next time and is sent to CE-MTC user equipment 201.Correspondingly, CE-MTC is used RSRP measured value range in mapping table is that -1110dBm arrives the corresponding lead code number of repetition of -115dBm by family equipment 201 It is updated to 50.
Step 418: in next random access procedure, CE-MTC user equipment 201 is obtained newest by measurement RSRP measured value.
Step 420:CE-MTC user equipment 201 is according to newest RSRP measured value and in upper primary success random access mistake The mapping table updated after journey selects PRACH lead code number of repetition.
