In the present embodiment, provide a kind of load equalization method, Fig. 2 is the flow chart of the load equalization method according to the embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in Figure 2, the method comprises the steps:
Step S202, determines that Serving cell needs to carry out load balancing;
Step S204, carries out the UE of load balancing according to pre-conditioned selection;
Step S206, the adjacent area that load factor is less than pre-determined threshold whether is there is under judging each frequency from high to low successively according to the priority of frequency, and select top n to exist frequency that load factor is less than the adjacent area of pre-determined threshold is handed down to described UE as target frequency measures, N is positive integer;
Step S208, selects the target handover cell of described UE according to the measurement result that described UE reports and switches.
The present embodiment passes through above-mentioned steps, after selecting the UE carrying out load balancing, whether there is the adjacent area that load factor is less than pre-determined threshold under judging each frequency from high to low successively according to the priority of frequency, and select top n to exist frequency that load factor is less than the adjacent area of pre-determined threshold is handed down to described UE as target frequency carries out A4 affair, select the target handover cell of described UE according to the measurement result that described UE reports and switch, thus make UE only need to there is to the top n selected the frequency that load factor is less than the adjacent area of pre-determined threshold to measure, and without the need to measuring the frequency of all adjacent areas, the problem that the load balancing scheme solved in correlation technique makes UE power consumption increase, when ensureing UE sustained traffic, network manager can be made according to the target frequency of the flexible Load adjustment equilibrium of network coverage situation, reach better load balancing effect, reduce the power consumption of UE on different-frequency measure, strengthen flying power.
Wherein, be above-mentionedly pre-conditionedly generally that to take comparatively multiple resource and priority ratio lower, select the mode of UE identical with the load balancing scheme in correlation technique, do not repeat in the present embodiment.
Preferably, priority can be pre-set to the frequency of all adjacent areas, wherein, can arrange according to the mode that the priority of the good frequency of coverage condition is higher.

Be described below in conjunction with preferred embodiment, following preferred embodiment combines above-described embodiment and preferred implementation thereof.
In following preferred embodiment, be that example is described with LTE (LongTermEvolution, Long Term Evolution) mobile communication system, provide a kind of load equalization method based on measurement and device.Wherein, the method sets configurable priority to each frequency, and what this priority embodied is the coverage condition of each frequency in network.Covering good frequency priority arranges higher, covers poor frequency priority and arranges lower.The priority of different frequent points can be identical, and the frequency that priority is high is paid the utmost attention to and issued, priority be 0 frequency do not consider to issue.Adding up the neighboring cell load situation under limit priority frequency before UE sending measuring frequency, judge in these adjacent areas, whether have at least adjacent area load factor on the direction needing to carry out load balancing to be less than corresponding LTE adjacent cell overload thresholding, select one or several (N number of) frequency satisfied condition to be handed down to UE as target frequency and carry out measuring (OptimizedMethod mode).
If the frequency of higher priority cannot meet above-mentioned condition, so consider that the frequency of time high priority carries out same process, if still do not select frequency, so just do not issue A4 and measure to UE.
In order to avoid the frequency quorum sensing inhibitor selected by the region residing for UE is bad, add up after needing to perform load balancing for PauseJudgmentNum time, occur based on the switching of load balancing if base station never has UE, be so converted to all priority be not 0 frequency all issue the mode (i.e. NormalMethod) that A4 measures and carry out.After needing to perform load balancing at PauseExcuteNum time, then revert to original mode (i.e. OptimizedMethod is also the load balancing mode in above-described embodiment).
Wherein, above-mentioned carrier frequency priority, PauseJudgmentNum and PauseExcuteNum can configure.
The load equalization method based on measurement described in this preferred embodiment and device, its process is divided into following step:
Step one, eNB load balancing function are opened, and the load balancing cycle arrives, and under eNB, certain cell load reaches thresholding, and after the capacity of more absolute available cell, all adjacent areas, if this cell load is the highest, need to perform load balancing.
Step 2, judge whether to be in NormalMethod state, result for being, and then has judged whether that load balancing performs number of times and is more than or equal to PauseExcuteNum, result, also for being so be converted to OptimizedMethod state, restarting to add up load balancing and performing number of times and the UE switching times occurred based on load balancing; Otherwise continue perform this kind of method and carry out corresponding statistics.
If be in OptimizedMethod state, perform load balancing number of times more than PauseJudgmentNum, and eNB there is no UE to occur to switch based on the UE of load balancing, will be converted to NormalMethod state, restarts statistics load balancing and performs number of times; If the UE occurred based on load balancing switches, load balancing performs number of times and occurs all to restart statistics based on the UE switching times of load balancing; In addition, continue perform this kind of method and carry out corresponding statistics.
Step 3, judgement need to use OptimizedMethod, carry out statistical analysis to this adjacent area, community frequency, from the frequency that frequency priority is the highest, observe in the corresponding adjacent area of this frequency whether have the load factor of an adjacent area at least lower than adjacent area overload thresholding.If the frequency of limit priority meets such condition, then issue these frequencies to the UE selected and carry out A4 measurement; If do not satisfied condition in the frequency of limit priority, so proceed to select in secondary high priority frequency.In a word, the frequency satisfied condition can be selected in the frequency of higher priority, namely stop.
Judgement needs to use NormalMethod, is not that the frequency of 0 is selected by all priority.
Selected frequency is carried out A4 measurement to UE sending measuring reprovision.
After step 4, base station receive UE measurement report, carry out load down process, UE is switched to the target adjacent area that load in measurement report is minimum, the UE switching times occurred based on load balancing adds 1.
By the load equalization method in this preferred embodiment, on the basis of correlation technique, optimize load balancing function, when ensureing UE sustained traffic, network manager can be made according to the target frequency of the flexible Load adjustment equilibrium of network coverage situation, reach better load balancing effect, reduce the power consumption of UE on different-frequency measure, strengthen flying power.
