Description

The method and apparatus of base station synchronization
It is 2012-05-29 that present patent application file, which is the applying date, application No. is 201210172058.5, invention name The referred to as divisional application of the application for a patent for invention file of " method and apparatus of base station synchronization ".
Technical field
The present invention relates to wireless communication field more particularly to a kind of methods and apparatus of base station synchronization.
Background technique
In order to meet the growing data traffic requirement of user, one kind based on long term evolution (Long Term Evolve, LTE) the base station IP access system of system is come into being.Base station IP access system passes through building Local wireless network, The network coverage and wirelessly access are provided by base station (Access Point, also known as access point base station) equipment for user.By The network architecture of flattening is used in base station IP access system, it can simply and cost effectively realize user equipment The access of (User Equipment, UE) to external network, as shown in Figure 1.This framework is based entirely on the framework of access net, The core net for eliminating LTE system, simplifies data transfer path and network complexity.This base station IP access architecture is again Referred to as LTE-Hi system.
Base station IP access system is based on TD SDMA-long term evolution (TD-SCDMA Long Term Evolution, TD-LTE) technology, has followed requirement of the TD-LTE system for synchronization among base stations.This is because being adopted in uplink and downlink With in time division duplex (TDD Time Division Duplex, TDD) system of identical frequency point, if asynchronous between each base station, The uplink that neighboring community's terminal is sent, which can be transmitted to receive to this cell downlink, brings interference, and only stringent synchronization can just be kept away Exempt from serious interference.
With base station IP access system more similarly LTE Femto, i.e., LTE femtocell (Home eNodeB, HeNB)。
LTE femtocell mainly uses following three kinds of simultaneous techniques:
The first, global positioning system (Global Positioning Systems, GPS);
If HeNB is mounted with GPS receiver, GPS satellite synchronization signal can be obtained, GPS can be provided precisely for it Sync identification (100ns), however the use of GPS is limited to environment, and especially environment can not almost work indoors, Er Qiecheng This is higher.
The second, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, IEEE) 1588v2;
Under good backhaul link network support (fiber optic Ethernet that can be operator's laying), 1588v2 also can The synchronization accuracy of Microsecond grade is provided, but can all have the backhaul link of high quality to support under not all scene, Er Qie electricity Cable and x Digital Subscriber Line road (X digital subscriber line, XDSL) also have that time delay is unstable, Synchronization accuracy can be produced bigger effect.
Third, network monitoring;
Network monitoring scheme can work under conditions of GPS and 1588v2 scheme is not available, therefore for TD-LTE This is a kind of essential synchronization mechanism for HeNB.Network monitoring mechanism is referred to by receiving synchronized network section The signal of point (synchronisation source) obtains synchronous method.Forbid transmitting after HeNB starting but before there is no synchronization, HeNB, which must first go through, to be monitored the signal of synchronization node and carries out just can be carried out normal transmission after Network Synchronization, and it is subsequent also Synchronization is periodically safeguarded.For HeNB, synchronisation source can choose synchronized macro base station (MeNB), HeNB Timing is obtained by receiving synchronization signal or the reference symbol of MeNB, as shown in Figure 2 a.But when macrocell network covers When undesirable or HeNB is located at building depths, the synchronization signal for obtaining macro base station will receive certain influence, at this time HeNB Synchronize and can be realized by way of multi-hop, i.e., by and synchronized HeNB synchronize, as shown in Figure 2 b.
It is synchronous for multi-hop, need to introduce the concept of layer, sync, layer, sync can be defined as needing synchronous HeNB with The layer, sync grade of the hop count passed through between the source GPS, some HeNB is bigger by 1 than the upper level source that it obtains synchronization.For example, Fig. 2 a and The layer, sync grade that the layer, sync grade that the layer, sync grade of MeNB in Fig. 2 b is 0, HeNB1 is 1, HeNB2 is 2.
3GPP discusses following three kinds of network monitoring mechanism:
First, it is based on primary synchronization signal (Primary Synchronized Signal, PSS)/secondary synchronization signal The monitoring of (Secondary Synchronization Signal, SSS).HeNB is by receiving synchronization node under this mechanism PSS/SSS synchronize, the PSS/SSS that HeNB is tracked during silent not can be carried out normal transmission.
Second, it is based on multimedia broadcast multi-broadcasting business Single Frequency Network (Multimedia Broadcast multicast Service Single Frequency Network, MBSFN) subframe monitoring.HeNB is by being claimed as silent subframe MBSFN sub-frame, UE then ignore the subframe when receiving.This method is all suitable for single-hop and multi-hop synchronization mechanism, in multi-hop feelings Under condition, certain subframes can be claimed as MBSFN sub-frame, the HeNB statement of different layers with certain period by each layer of HeNB MBSFN sub-frame position be different.It is limited to maximum MBSFN sub-frame configuration, maximum supports 4 to jump.
Third, the monitoring based on the configuration of TDD special subframe.By configuring less descending pilot frequency time slot to HeNB (DwPTS) symbol and more DwPTS symbol is configured to MeNB so that HeNB can use its protect time slot (GP) when Between it is same to obtain to measure the exclusive pilot signal of cell (Cell-specific reference signals, CRS) of MeNB Step.But since general DwPTS equipping rules are covering high capacity cells small for interior etc. using more DwPTS symbol Configuration, for outdoor positioning, in the cell extensively covered, then the less DwPTS of symbolization is configured, and the configuration of this synchronous method is wanted It asks then just with the network configuration principle of DwPTS on the contrary, therefore certain restrictions, and this will be constituted to the network configuration of operator Kind method cannot generally support the Network Synchronization of 2 jumps or more.
System based on local IP access is likely to commonly used in indoor and hot spot region using different from LTE system High band, be difficult to carry out network monitoring using macro base station as synchronisation source to realize and synchronize, even if being based partially on local IP access system The base station (base station hereinafter referred LTE-Hi) of system obtains absolute synchronization source, when the base station LTE-Hi is densely deployed in indoor hot zone When domain, the maximum layer, sync number of plies as defined in TD-LTE network monitoring mechanism can not be met the requirements.
To sum up, base station based on local IP access system indoors hot spot region dense deployment when, base station can not obtain absolutely Effective synchronisation source can not be obtained to synchronisation source, or since the synchronous number of plies of TD-LTE maximum is limited.
Summary of the invention

Specific embodiment
In order to solve the problems, such as how the base station based on local IP access system is effectively synchronized, the embodiment of the present invention is mentioned For the method for the first base station synchronization.
Referring to Fig. 3 a, for base station side, the method for the first base station synchronization provided in an embodiment of the present invention, including following step It is rapid:
Step 301: base station is set as minimum same after not searching effective synchronisation source, by the layer, sync grade of the base station Layer grade is walked, and determines whether the layer, sync grade of the base station conflicts with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station;Here, it has not searched The synchronisation source of effect refers to that the layer, sync grade for the synchronisation source for not searching synchronisation source or searching reaches maximum layer, sync grade;
Step 302: if conflict, resets the layer, sync grade of the base station, and selecting the adjacent base station of conflict as same Step source is realized synchronous with the synchronisation source;
Step 303: if not conflicting, the layer, sync grade of the base station being fixed as minimum layer, sync grade, so that adjacent base It stands and the base station synchronizes.
It in step 301, determines whether the layer, sync grade of the base station conflicts with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station, implements It can be using one of the following two kinds method:
First, by search for adjacent cell signal determine the base station layer, sync grade whether the layer, sync grade with adjacent base station Conflict;
Specifically, adjacent cell signal is searched within the time of the first setting duration, if not searching layer, sync grade is most The signal of the co-frequency neighbor cell of low layer, sync grade, it is determined that the layer, sync grade of the layer, sync grade of the base station and adjacent base station is not Conflict;
If searching the signal for the co-frequency neighbor cell that layer, sync grade is minimum layer, sync grade, duration is set second Time in continue to monitor the signal of the co-frequency neighbor cell, if second setting duration time in the co-frequency neighbor cell synchronization Layer grade is minimum layer, sync grade always, it is determined that the layer, sync grade of the base station and the base station where the co-frequency neighbor cell Layer, sync grade conflict, if the layer, sync grade of the co-frequency neighbor cell changes within the time of the second setting duration, really The layer, sync grade of the fixed base station does not conflict with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station.
Second, the information of the layer, sync grade of the base station is sent to gateway;It is true according to the feedback information of gateway Whether the layer, sync grade of the fixed base station conflicts with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station.
Specifically, if the feedback information of gateway is confirmation message, it is determined that the layer, sync grade of the base station and adjacent base The layer, sync grade stood does not conflict, if the feedback information of gateway is refusal information, it is determined that the layer, sync grade of the base station Conflict with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station;
The confirmation message is gateway in the synchronization stratum information and information of adjacent cells according to all base stations of storage, really The information that the layer, sync grade of the fixed base station is sent after not conflicting with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station;The refusal information is gateway Equipment in the synchronization stratum information and information of adjacent cells according to all base stations of storage, determine the base station layer, sync grade and adjacent base The information sent after the layer, sync grade conflict stood;Alternatively,
The confirmation message is gateway after the information of the layer, sync grade of the base station is sent to each adjacent base station, is connect It receives the confirmation message of adjacent base station reply or does not receive the information sent when the reply of adjacent base station within the set duration;It is described to refuse Exhausted information is gateway after the information of the layer, sync grade of the base station is sent to adjacent base station, receives adjacent base station reply Refuse the information sent when information.
Correspondingly, selecting the adjacent base station of conflict as synchronisation source in step 302, specific implementation can use the following two kinds side One of method:
First, in the refusal information received comprising conflict adjacent base station information when, select indicated by the information Adjacent base station is as synchronisation source;
Second, search for adjacent cell signal, select base station where the elementary adjacent cell of the layer, sync searched as Synchronisation source.
In step 302, the layer, sync grade of the base station is reset, specific implementation can be such that the synchronization of the base station Layer grade is re-set as the layer, sync grade of one grade than minimum layer, sync higher grade.
Such as Fig. 3 b, for gateway side, the first synchronizing information feedback method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, including with Lower step:
Step 311: gateway receives the information of the layer, sync grade for the base station that base station is sent;
Step 312: gateway determines whether the layer, sync grade of the base station conflicts with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station, and Feedback information is returned to base station according to definitive result.
The specific implementation of step 312 can be such that
If gateway according to the synchronization stratum information (including layer, sync grade) and information of adjacent cells of all base stations of storage, It determines that the layer, sync grade of the base station does not conflict with the layer, sync grade of adjacent base station, then returns to confirmation message to base station;If according to The synchronization stratum information and information of adjacent cells of all base stations of storage, determine the layer, sync grade of the base station and the layer, sync of adjacent base station Grade conflict then returns to refusal information to base station;Alternatively,
After the information of the layer, sync grade of the base station is sent to adjacent base station by gateway, if receiving adjacent base station reply Confirmation message or the reply for not receiving adjacent base station within the set duration then return to confirmation message to base station;If receiving adjacent base Stand reply refusal information, then to base station return refusal information.
In order to solve the problems, such as how the base station based on local IP access system is effectively synchronized, the embodiment of the present invention is mentioned For the method for second of base station synchronization.
A referring to fig. 4, for base station side, the method for second of base station synchronization provided in an embodiment of the present invention, including following step It is rapid:
Step 401: base station receives the configuration information comprising layer, sync grade that gateway is sent;
Step 402: the layer, sync grade of itself is arranged according to the configuration information for base station, i.e., by the layer, sync grade of itself The layer, sync grade being set as in the configuration information;If the layer, sync grade of the base station is not minimum layer, sync grade, it is determined that Synchronisation source, and realize synchronous with the synchronisation source;If the layer, sync grade of the base station is minimum layer, sync grade, adjacent base station meeting It is synchronized with the base station.
In step 401, base station receives the configuration information comprising layer, sync grade of gateway transmission, and specific implementation can With as follows:
Base station receives the configuration information comprising layer, sync grade of gateway transmission after being linked into network;Alternatively,
Base station sends synchronization level request message after not searching effective synchronisation source, to gateway;Receive gateway The configuration information comprising layer, sync grade that equipment returns.
The method of above-mentioned determining synchronisation source can be such that
When also including information of adjacent cells in the configuration information received, layer, sync grade is determined according to the information of adjacent cells Base station where minimum adjacent cell, using determining base station as synchronisation source;Here information of adjacent cells may include adjacent cell The information such as layer, sync grade;Alternatively,
Adjacent cell signal is searched for, selects the base station where the elementary adjacent cell of the layer, sync searched as synchronization Source.
Preferably, base station receives gateway and becomes in network deployment after base station receives the configuration information The reconfiguration information sent after change includes updated layer, sync grade in the reconfiguration information;Base station is according to the reconfiguration confidence Breath resets the layer, sync grade of itself, i.e., the layer, sync etc. set the layer, sync grade of itself in the reconfiguration information Grade;If the layer, sync grade of the base station is not minimum layer, sync grade after resetting, redefine synchronisation source, and realize with The synchronization of the synchronisation source redefined.
Likewise, the above-mentioned method for redefining synchronisation source can be such that
When also including information of adjacent cells in the reconfiguration information received, layer, sync etc. is determined according to the information of adjacent cells Base station where the minimum adjacent cell of grade, using determining base station as synchronisation source;Alternatively,
Adjacent cell signal is searched for, selects the base station where the elementary adjacent cell of the layer, sync searched as synchronization Source.
As shown in Figure 4 b, for gateway side, second of synchronizing information feedback method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, packet Include following steps:
Step 411: gateway determines the layer, sync grade of base station;The layer, sync grade of base station can be stored in advance In gateway, gateway determines the layer, sync grade of base station according to the information of storage;
Step 412: the configuration information comprising the layer, sync grade is sent to base station by gateway.
In step 412, the configuration information comprising the layer, sync grade is sent to base station by gateway, and specific implementation can With as follows:
After gateway is linked into network in base station, the configuration information comprising the layer, sync grade is sent to base station; Alternatively,
It, will after the synchronization level request message that gateway is sent when receiving base station and not searching effective synchronisation source Configuration information comprising the layer, sync grade is sent to base station.
Preferably, gateway exists after the configuration information comprising layer, sync grade is sent to base station by gateway Network deployment to base station sends reconfiguration information after changing, and includes updated layer, sync grade in the reconfiguration information. Updated layer, sync grade is the layer, sync grade reset after network deployment changes for base station.
In order to solve the problems, such as how the base station based on local IP access system is effectively synchronized, the embodiment of the present invention is mentioned For the method for the third base station synchronization.
Referring to Fig. 5 a, for base station side, the method for the third base station synchronization provided in an embodiment of the present invention, including following step It is rapid:
Step 501: base station is in the location information for reporting the base station into the registration process of maintenance and management entity (OAM); Receive the configuration information for the layer, sync class information comprising adjacent base station that OAM is returned;The adjacent base station is position of the OAM according to the base station The elementary adjacent base station of layer, sync in each adjacent base station of the determining base station of confidence breath;
Step 502: base station according to the layer, sync hierarchical search synchronisation source of the adjacent base station in configuration information, and with the synchronisation source It synchronizes, i.e. the signal of adjacent cell of the search comprising the layer, sync grade, using the adjacent cell as synchronisation source, and it is synchronous with this Source synchronizes.
Preferably, after base station is synchronized with the synchronisation source searched following steps can be executed:
If A, success synchronous with the synchronisation source, the synchronizing for information comprising the synchronisation source is returned to OAM and is successfully indicated;
If B, returning to the synchronization failure instruction of the information comprising the synchronisation source to OAM with the synchronization failure of the synchronisation source, And the configuration information for the layer, sync class information comprising the adjacent base station redefined that OAM is returned to is received, according to again true The layer, sync class information of fixed adjacent base station re-searches for synchronisation source, and synchronizes with the synchronisation source re-searched for, returns Step A.
Preferably, base station receives the configuration that OAM is retransmitted after network deployment changes after step 501 Information, comprising the layer, sync class information of the adjacent base station redefined in the configuration information of the retransmission;According to redefining The layer, sync class information of adjacent base station re-search for synchronisation source, and synchronized with the synchronisation source re-searched for;If synchronous Success, then return to OAM and successfully indicate, and it is more same than the synchronisation source that re-searches for reset the layer, sync grade of the base station Walk the high level-one of layer grade;If synchronization failure, current layer, sync grade is kept, and send layer, sync grade to OAM and keep not The instruction of change.
As shown in Figure 5 b, for the side OAM, the method for the third base station synchronization provided in an embodiment of the present invention, including it is following Step:
Step 511:OAM receives the location information for the base station that base station reports in registration process;
Step 512:OAM determines that layer, sync is elementary in each adjacent base station of the base station according to the location information of the base station Adjacent base station, and the configuration information of the layer, sync class information comprising the adjacent base station is sent to the base station.
Further, after OAM sends configuration information to base station, if OAM receive base station transmission comprising synchronize Synchronizing for the information in source successfully indicates, then the layer, sync grade for successfully indicating to determine and store the base station, the base are synchronized according to this The layer, sync grade stood is determined as the layer, sync grade of one grade than the layer, sync higher grade of the synchronisation source;
If the synchronization failure for receiving the information comprising synchronisation source of base station transmission indicates that OAM is according to the position of the base station Confidence ceases an adjacent base station for redefining the base station;And matching the layer, sync class information comprising the adjacent base station redefined Confidence breath is sent to the base station.Here, the adjacent base station redefined can be layer, sync grade in the adjacent base station of unselected mistake Minimum adjacent base station, the adjacent base station of unselected mistake, the then adjacent base station redefined can be the OAM if it does not exist, the OAM's Layer, sync class information can be set to sky, and after base station and the OAM are synchronized and returned to confirmation of synchronization message, OAM is by base The layer, sync grade stood is recorded as minimum layer, sync grade.
Preferably, OAM is after network deployment changes, according to the base after OAM sends configuration information to base station The location information stood redefines an adjacent base station of the base station, that is, redefines the elementary neighbour of layer, sync in each adjacent base station Base station, and the configuration information of the layer, sync class information comprising the adjacent base station redefined is sent to the base station.If subsequent OAM The synchronizing for the information comprising synchronisation source for receiving base station transmission successfully indicates, then synchronizes successfully instruction according to this and determine and store The layer, sync grade of the base station, the layer, sync grade of the base station are determined as one grade than the layer, sync higher grade of the synchronisation source Layer, sync grade.
The present invention will be described combined with specific embodiments below:
The present invention proposes a kind of base station synchronization method based on local IP access system: by being based on local IP access system Adaptively coordinate between network node, synchronisation source relationship in adjustment network deployment, it is effectively synchronous between realization base station.
Specifically include three kinds of situations:
Situation 1: base station distribution formula automatically adjusts layer, sync grade.
Base station is adjusted to the available frequency point farthest apart from adjacent cell frequency point when no synchronisation source is available, by itself frequency point, And it is customized for minimum layer, sync 0.Adjacent base station can synchronize and be set as more higher leveled layer, sync.When multiple adjacent base stations When statement is lowermost layer synchronisation source, need to introduce Hedging mechanism.
Hedging mechanism are as follows: base station 1 sets 0 for itself layer, sync grade, and the same of neighboring community is searched in time T0 Layer setting is walked, if T0 time-out does not all search out the co-frequency neighbor cell of layer, sync grade 0, base station 1 is steady by itself layer, sync grade It is set to 0;If the layer, sync grade for searching out co-frequency cell 2 is 0, start timer T1, and continue to monitor cell 2, if timing 2 layer, sync grade of device T1 time-out cell is still 0, itself layer, sync is set as 1 by base station 1, and using 2 place base station of cell as synchronization Source.T0 is set greater than the value the time required to all adjacent cell layer, sync grades of base station measurement, and T1, which is set greater than, to be re-measured Value the time required to one cell synchronous layer grade, T0 and T1 can be configured by OAM or base station self-setting.To further avoid touching It hits, T1 can be set as taking arbitrary value by being uniformly distributed in a section [Tmin, Tmax].
The layer, sync grade of situation 2:GW unified management adjacent base station;
Scheme one: GW stores the synchronization stratum information and information of adjacent cells of all base stations, when base station determines itself layer, sync etc. When grade, layer, sync grade is sent to GW and determines request message, wherein comprising the layer, sync grade that base station voluntarily selects, if GW is true Fixed base station selected layer, sync grade is not clashed with other adjacent base stations, to base station feedback confirmation message, such as Fig. 6 a;Otherwise anti- It presents refuse information and carries the layer, sync class information for base station configuration, such as Fig. 6 b.
Scheme two: GW is directly base station configuration layer, sync grade;
GW stores base station synchronization layer class information and information of adjacent cells, as fig. 6 c, after base station access network network, Xiang Ji It stands and sends configuration information, can also include the information of adjacent cells that need to be synchronized, base station determines layer, sync including layer, sync grade Grade, and synchronisation source is determined according to the configuration received.When there is base station switch machine that network deployment is made to happen variation, GW can To send reconfiguration message to AP, with the layer, sync class information etc. for reconfiguring AP.Alternatively,
As shown in fig 6d, after base station access network network, configuring request information is sent to GW, wherein may include desired same Layer grade is walked, GW sends configuration information to base station, can also be adjacent small including what need to be synchronized including the layer, sync grade of configuration Area's information, base station determines layer, sync grade, and determines synchronisation source according to the configuration received.When there is base station switch machine to make Network Dept. When administration happens variation, GW can send reconfiguration message to AP, with the layer, sync class information etc. for reconfiguring AP.
Scheme three: GW is collected layer, sync class information to adjacent base station and is fed back;
GW does not store the synchronization stratum information of base station, after base station selected layer, sync grade, sends layer, sync grade letter to GW Breath;GW sends the inquiry of layer, sync grade to other base stations, if confirmation message is not replied or replied to all adjacent base stations, GW to this Base station feedback confirmation message, such as Fig. 6 e;If there is adjacent base station replys refusal information and carries synchronization stratum information, GW is by the letter Breath is transmitted to the base station, such as Fig. 6 f.The base station is according to feedback information adjustment layer, sync grade and according to adjacent cell layer, sync grade State determines synchronisation source.
The foundation that adjacent base station judges that feedback acknowledgment is still refused is whether that the layer, sync grade current with itself conflicts.Such as Adjacent base station AP1 and AP2 are set as layer, sync grade 0, and AP2 will feed back refuse information and suggest that AP1 is set as layer, sync grade 1.
Situation 3: base station synchronization layer grade is configured by OAM;
Here OAM is network management unit (Network Manager, NM), manages numerous a AP below.OAM can be deposited Store up the location information and its layer, sync grade of all APs registered with it.
