Below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in the embodiment of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiment of the present invention is clearly and completely described, it is clear that described embodiment is only a part of embodiment of the invention, rather than whole embodiments.Based on the embodiment in the present invention, the every other embodiment that those of ordinary skill in the art are obtained under the premise of creative work is not made belongs to the scope of protection of the invention.
It is the network structure of the small base station of the embodiment of the present invention referring to Fig. 1-Fig. 4,
In order to increase covering and user communication quality, increase small base station in original wireless network to form small cell covering, small cell base station and the connection of macro base station are described in Fig. 1, small cell base station does not have and MME (Mobility Management Entity, mobile management entity) or core net be directly connected to, macro base station is as an intermediate node, base station and core net or MME effect as connection small cell.It can be seen in the drawing that small cell may macrocell corresponding with macro base station covering overlap, small cell it could also be possible that one isolation cell.
Due to that may dispose more small base station in some region, such as each floor in some building may all dispose several small base stations, and these small base stations form multiple cells of each floor, and service is provided for the terminal of this floor.The diverse location that multiple cells are present in macrocellular covering in the form of cluster is a commonplace phenomenon, the concept of small base station controller is introduced in the present invention, originally the line of small base station connection macro base station becomes Multiple Small Cell Sites and is connected to small base station controller, is then connected to macro base station by small base station controller.
It is the scene 1 of the present invention, the small base station connection corresponding with cell of the corresponding macro base station of macrocell referring to Fig. 2(Macrocell and cell are in on frequency F1), coordinated connecting line between the small base station in same cluster, the small base station that now macro base station with macrocell is connected is considered as the small base station controller in the cluster.
It is the scene 2 of the present invention, the small base station connection corresponding with cell of the corresponding macro base station of macrocell referring to Fig. 3(Macrocell is on different frequent points F1 and F2 with cell), also coordinated connecting line between the small base station in same cluster, the small base station for that cell that now macro base station with macrocell is connected is considered as the small base station controller of the cluster.Difference between scene 1 and 2 is the scene that is located outside of cell disposed or interior.
It is the scene 3 of the present invention referring to Fig. 4, the corresponding small base station of cell macro base station not corresponding with macrocell is connected, and there is the connecting line coordinated between the small base station in same cluster, now one in cluster-specific Individual small base station as the cluster quilt small base station controller, specify in such as figure in the middle of small base station be small base station controller, this scene is positioned at indoor cell deployment scenario.
Referring to Fig. 5, for a kind of schematic flow sheet of positioning target terminal method based on small base station of first embodiment of the invention, in the present embodiment, the good business device of the positioning moon is positioned using e-CID and RFPM to target terminal, correspondence above-mentioned scene 1 and scene 2, small base station is serviced for complete base station, specific method comprises the following steps.
Step 1, location-server send positioning measurement and asked to macro base station.
Specifically, the positioning measurement request of the embodiment of the present invention can be carried in LPPa (LTE Positioning Protocol A, long term evaluation positioning protocol A) in signaling, the positioning measurement is asked for obtaining the positioning measurement result for being used for positioning target terminal, positioning measurement result includes base station side parameter and end side parameter, base station side parameter is obtained by base station measurement, by end side, measurement is obtained end side parameter, and location-server can position the geographical position of target terminal according to positioning measurement result.In one embodiment of the invention, end side parameter includes:The transmitting-receiving time difference of target terminal(Rx-Tx time difference), target terminal receives serving cell and RSRP (the Reference Signal Receiving Power of neighbor cell, Reference Signal Received Power)/RSRQ (Reference Signal Receiving Quality, Reference Signal Received Quality);Base station side parameter includes:The transmitting-receiving time difference of small base station is serviced, AoA (the Angle of Arrival, angle of arrival of the transmission signal for the target terminal that small base station is received is serviced).In the embodiment of the present invention, the good business device of the positioning moon is E-SMLC (Evolved Serving Mobile Location Center, evolution Serving Mobile Location Center), macro base station can be the macro base station of macro base station or the small base station controller of connection and MME that service is provided for target terminal.
Step 2, macro base station send positioning measurement request to small base station controller.
Specifically, macro base station receives the positioning measurement request of location-server, which target terminal which service small base station positioning measurement request is intended under is parsed, positioning measurement request is sent to the corresponding small base station controller in the small base station of service by macro base station.Macro base station sends the address information (such as route ID or macro station index) that macro base station is carried in positioning measurement request, and small base station controller preserves the address information, is easy to the addressing for being measured rear small base station controller to report.
Because small base station controller is newly-increased equipment, the transmission that request is obtained between macro base station and small base station controller can be by following signaling bear, referring specifically to table 1: Signaling value model value type

Step 3, small base station controller receive the positioning measurement request that macro base station is sent, and positioning measurement request is sent to the small base station of service where target terminal.It is consistent in the content and step 2 of positioning measurement request.
Step 4, the small base station of service indicate target terminal measuring terminals side parameter.
Specifically, service small base station and parse the instruction that measurement base station side parameter is indicated in positioning measurement request and the instruction for indicating measuring terminals side parameter, service small base station and the instruction for indicating measuring terminals side parameter is sent into target terminal, by target terminal measuring terminals side parameter, while itself measurement base station side parameter.
Step 5, target terminal are to servicing small base station reporting terminal side parameter.
