Description

Random access method and base station
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a random access method and a base station.
Background
Random access is a necessary process for establishing a radio link between a terminal and a network, and the terminal can communicate with a base station only after random access is completed.
In the process of Random Access, a terminal determines the time for sending a Random Access Preamble (Preamble) to a base station according to configuration parameters issued by the base station, and sends the Random Access Preamble to the base station at the time, wherein the Random Access Preamble is obtained by the sequence displacement of the Random Access Preamble (Zadoff-Chu). And after receiving the random access lead code sent by the terminal, the base station obtains a correlation peak falling in a zero correlation window according to the random access lead code and each Zadoff-Chu sequence in a random access lead code set saved in advance. Since the zero correlation window corresponds to the identifier (Preamble ID) of the random access Preamble one to one, the base station can determine the identifier of the random access Preamble corresponding to the random access Preamble sent by the terminal by determining the zero correlation window where the correlation peak is located. The base station transmits the parameters of the correlation peak and the identification of the random access preamble to the terminal through a random access response message.
In the existing technical solution of random access, a terminal sends a random access preamble to a base station in advance or in a delayed manner, which may cause a correlation peak obtained by the base station to fall within an incorrect zero correlation window, or may cause correlation peaks obtained by the base station to fall within a plurality of zero correlation windows due to energy leakage of the random access preamble received by the base station, both of which may cause the base station to determine an identifier of the incorrect random access preamble and parameters of the incorrect correlation peaks, so that the terminal cannot perform uplink synchronization according to a random access response sent by the base station, and at this time, the random access response sent by the base station is an invalid random access response, which further causes a long time delay of random access and a high random access failure rate. The base station may wrongly judge the interference noise as the random access preamble, and send a random access response according to the wrongly judged random access preamble, and the random access response sent by the base station is an invalid random access response, so that the resource of the base station is wasted, and the running speed of the base station is slowed down.
In summary, the existing random access technical solutions have the problems of long random access time, high random access failure rate, waste of base station resources, slow operation speed, and the like, and thus a technical solution for implementing a terminal random access network is urgently needed to be designed.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The embodiment of the invention provides a random access method and a base station, which are used for realizing the random access of a terminal to a network. In the existing random access technical scheme, due to reasons such as inaccurate timing of a terminal, the terminal may send a random access preamble to a base station in advance or in a delayed manner, so that a correlation peak obtained by the base station according to the random access preamble falls within an incorrect zero correlation window, which may be referred to as a forward window. As shown in fig. 1, the random access preamble with the identifier 2 sent by the terminal falls within the zero correlation window with the identifier 3 of the random access preamble, and the base station will recognize the received identifier 3 of the random access preamble sent by the terminal. Due to the phenomenon of energy leakage of signals, when the random access preamble code received by the base station leaks energy, the base station may obtain a plurality of correlation peaks, and the correlation peaks may fall within a plurality of correlation windows, so that the random access preamble code determined by the base station may be an incorrect random access preamble code. As shown in fig. 2, since the random access preamble identified by 2 of the random access preamble has energy leakage, a correlation peak obtained by the base station according to the random access preamble falls within a zero correlation window identified by 2 of the random access preamble and a zero correlation window identified by 3 of the random access preamble, and meanwhile, another terminal sends the random access preamble identified by 3 of the random access preamble to the base station, so that the base station obtains two correlation peaks in the zero correlation window identified by 3 of the random access preamble, and usually, when a plurality of correlation peaks exist in one zero correlation window, the correlation peak parameter is determined according to the correlation peak with the highest peak value among the plurality of correlation peaks, so that the base station determines the correlation peak parameter according to the correlation peak corresponding to the signal leaked from the random access preamble identified by 2 of the random access preamble, so that the correlation peak parameter received by the terminal sending the random access preamble identified by 3 of the random access preamble is an error The parameter of the correlation peak of (1) causes the random access failure of the terminal. Furthermore, the base station may misinterpret the interference noise as a random access preamble, so that the base station transmits an invalid random access response without the terminal transmitting the random access preamble to the base station.
In the technical scheme of the embodiment of the invention, before the base station sends the random access response to the terminal, the base station needs to obtain the parameters of the related peak in each zero related window in at least one zero related window according to the random access lead code sent by the terminal, and when the base station determines that the parameters of the related peak meet the preset conditions, the base station sends the parameters of the related peak to the terminal through the random access response, so that the influence of factors such as signal leakage, inaccurate timing of the terminal, interference noise and the like on the random access process is reduced, the base station is prevented from sending invalid random access response, the random access time delay is favorably shortened, the random access failure rate is favorably reduced, the resource waste of the base station is favorably reduced, and the running speed of the base station is favorably accelerated. The method and the device are based on the same inventive concept, and because the principles of solving the problems of the method and the device are similar, the implementation of the device and the method can be mutually referred, and repeated parts are not repeated.
The embodiment of the invention is suitable for a scene that the base station sends the random access response message to the terminal in the random access process, in particular to a scene that the base station sends the random access response message to the terminal in the non-competitive random access process. For example, in a cell handover process, a target cell sends a random access response message to a terminal, when downlink data sent by a base station to the terminal reaches the terminal and an air interface of the terminal is in an up-down out-of-step state, the base station sends the random access response message to the terminal, and in an auxiliary positioning process, the base station sends the random access response message to the terminal.
The network equipment related to the embodiment of the invention comprises a base station, and the base station comprises a plurality of cells. A base station may also be referred to as an access point, or as a device in an access network that communicates over the air-interface, through one or more sectors, with wireless terminals, or by other names, depending on the particular application. The base station may be configured to interconvert received air frames with Internet Protocol (IP) packets as a router between the wireless terminal and the rest of the access network, which may include an Internet Protocol (IP) communication network. The base station may also coordinate management of attributes for the air interface. For example, the base Station may be a network device (BTS) in Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) or Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), a network device (NodeB) in Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), or an evolved Node B (eNB) in LTE, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
A terminal according to embodiments of the present invention may refer to a device that provides voice and/or data connectivity to a user, a handheld device having wireless connectivity, or other processing device connected to a wireless modem. A wireless terminal may communicate with one or more core networks via a Radio Access Network (RAN), and wireless user equipment may be mobile terminals such as mobile telephones (or "cellular" telephones) and computers with mobile terminals, such as portable, pocket, hand-held, computer-included, or vehicle-mounted mobile devices, that exchange language and/or data with the RAN. Examples of such devices include Personal Communication Service (PCS) phones, cordless phones, Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) phones, Wireless Local Loop (WLL) stations, and Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs). A wireless User Equipment may also be referred to as a system, a Subscriber Unit (Subscriber Unit), a Subscriber Station (Subscriber Station), a Mobile Station (Mobile), a Remote Station (Remote Station), an Access Point (Access Point), a Remote Terminal (Remote Terminal), an Access Terminal (Access Terminal), a User Terminal (User Terminal), a User Agent (User Agent), a User Equipment (User Device), or a User Equipment (User Equipment).
The random access related to the embodiment of the invention is a necessary process for establishing a wireless link between a terminal and a network, and the terminal communicates with a base station after completing the random access. The random access can be divided into contention random access initiated by the terminal and non-contention random access initiated by the base station.
The random access preamble code related to the embodiment of the invention is a numerical sequence generated by cyclic shift of a Zadoff-Chu sequence with zero correlation property. Since the autocorrelation and the cross-correlation of the random access preamble codes are good, a peak value does not appear in a result sequence obtained by performing correlation operation on two different random access preamble codes, and a peak value appears in a result sequence obtained by performing correlation operation on two same random access preamble codes, and the peak value is called a correlation peak. Usually, each cell of the base station stores a random access preamble sequence code set, the random access preamble sequence code set is composed of at least one Zadoff-Chu sequence and a random access preamble code corresponding to the Zadoff-Chu sequence, correlation peaks obtained by calculating each random access preamble code and the corresponding Zadoff-Chu sequence fall into a corresponding zero correlation window, and the zero correlation windows are in one-to-one correspondence with the identifiers of the random access preamble codes.
The correlation algorithm related to the embodiment of the present invention may be one or more of correlation algorithms in the prior art, and these correlation algorithms are classified into an autocorrelation algorithm and a cross-correlation algorithm, which are not limited in the implementation of the present invention.
The zero correlation window according to the embodiment of the present invention refers to the length of a portion having no correlation included in two sequences. The window length of zero correlation used in the random access procedure may be configured to the terminal by the base station.
The following detailed description of various embodiments of the invention refers to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the display sequence of the embodiment of the present invention only represents the sequence of the embodiment, and does not represent the merits of the technical solutions provided by the embodiments.
As shown in fig. 3, an embodiment of the present invention provides a random access method, where the method includes:
s301, the base station receives the random access preamble sent by the terminal.
The base station can pre-store a random access preamble sequence code set, the random access preamble sequence set is composed of at least one Zadoff-Chu sequence and a random access preamble code corresponding to the Zadoff-Chu sequence, a correlation peak obtained after correlation calculation is carried out on each random access preamble code and the corresponding Zadoff-Chu sequence is located in a uniquely corresponding zero correlation window, random access preamble codes contained in the random access preamble code set correspond to the zero correlation windows one by one, and the zero correlation windows correspond to the identifiers of the random access preamble codes one by one.
In S301, the base station receives a random access preamble sent by the terminal, where the random access preamble may be determined by the terminal according to an identifier of the random access preamble sent by the base station, or may be a random access preamble randomly selected by the terminal from at least one random access preamble that is pre-stored and available for contention for random access.
Preferably, before the base station receives the random access preamble transmitted by the terminal, when there are a plurality of terminals that have transmitted the random access preamble to the base station in advance, the base station may indicate one random access preamble to each of the plurality of terminals, respectively. The base station may send a random access preamble to each of the plurality of terminals, or may send an identifier of a random access preamble to each of the plurality of terminals. The random access preamble indicated to each of the plurality of terminals is a random access preamble that is discontinuous with each other in the random access preamble set, and intervals between the discontinuous random access preambles may be the same or different, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention. Since the non-contention random access is initiated by the base station and the contention random access is initiated by the terminals, the method in which the base station indicates a random access preamble to each of the plurality of terminals is preferentially applied to the scenario of the non-contention random access.
Therefore, when a plurality of terminals which send random access lead codes to the base station in advance are provided, the base station can indicate the random access lead codes through the terminals, so that when the plurality of terminals send the random access lead codes to the same base station, a plurality of correlation peaks obtained by the base station respectively fall in different zero correlation windows with certain intervals, the phenomenon that a plurality of correlation peaks are obtained in one zero correlation window due to energy leakage of the random access lead codes is avoided, the random access time delay is favorably shortened, and the random access failure rate is favorably reduced.
Taking a random access process in a cell handover scenario as an example, as shown in fig. 4, a source cell sends a handover request message to a destination cell, after receiving the handover request message, the destination cell sends a handover request acknowledgement message to the source cell, where the handover request acknowledgement message carries an identifier m of a random access code corresponding to a random access code allocated to a terminal 1 by a base station to which the destination cell belongs, and the identifier of the random access code is used for the terminal 1 to randomly access a network by using the random access code corresponding to the identifier of the random access code. After receiving the handover request acknowledgement message sent by the target cell, the source cell sends a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection reconfiguration message to the terminal 1, where the RRC connection reconfiguration message carries an identifier m of a random access code allocated to the terminal 1 by a base station to which the target cell belongs. After receiving the RRC connection reconfiguration message, the terminal 1 sends a random access code identified as m to the target cell. Similarly, the base station to which the destination cell belongs sends the identifier m +2 of the random access code corresponding to the random access code allocated to the terminal 2, and finally, after receiving the RRC connection reconfiguration message sent by the source cell, the terminal 2 sends the random access code with the identifier m +2 of the random access code to the destination cell.
S302, the base station obtains parameters of a correlation peak in each zero correlation window in at least one zero correlation window according to the received random access lead code and a pre-stored random access lead code set, wherein the random access lead code contained in the random access lead code set corresponds to the zero correlation window one by one.
The parameters of the correlation peak may include power and/or timing advance of the random access preamble. The power of the random access preamble is determined according to the peak value of the correlation peak, and the power of the random access preamble is used for the terminal to adjust the power of the terminal for sending the uplink data. The time advance is used for uplink synchronization between the terminal and the base station, and the time advance is the time between the time of a zero correlation window where the correlation peak falls and the starting time of the zero correlation window. It can also be understood that the distance between the position of the zero correlation window where the correlation peak falls and the start position of the zero correlation window is proportional to the time advance. As shown in fig. 5, the timing advance is the time between the time when the correlation peak falls within the zero correlation window of random access code identification 2 and the starting time of the zero correlation window of random access code identification 2. The random access preamble set is composed of at least one Zadoff-Chu sequence and its corresponding random access preamble.
In S302, the base station may perform correlation calculation on the received random access preamble and each Zadoff-Chu sequence in the pre-stored random access preamble set, and since the random access preambles included in the random access preamble set correspond to the zero correlation windows one to one, a correlation peak falling in each zero correlation window of at least one zero correlation window may be obtained, and then a parameter of the correlation peak is obtained according to the correlation peak. For the correlation peak falling in each zero correlation window in at least one zero correlation window, the base station respectively determines the parameters of the correlation peak corresponding to the correlation peak, that is, the base station respectively determines the power and/or the time advance of the random access preamble code corresponding to the correlation peak, so that the base station can determine the correlation peak corresponding to the random access preamble code according to the parameters of the correlation peak and determine whether the random access preamble code is sent to the base station at the time determined according to the configuration parameters issued by the base station.
It should be noted that, in addition to the parameter for determining the correlation peak by using the above method, other methods in the prior art may also be used to determine the parameter of the correlation peak, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto
And S303, when the parameters of the correlation peak meeting the preset condition exist in the parameters of the correlation peak in each zero correlation window in at least one zero correlation window, the base station sends a random access response message comprising the parameters of the correlation peak meeting the preset condition to the terminal.
The preset condition is that the power of the random access preamble code is larger than a first threshold value, and/or the time advance is smaller than a second threshold value. Namely: when the parameter of the correlation peak includes the power of the random access preamble, the preset condition may be that the power of the random access preamble is greater than a first threshold; when the parameter of the correlation peak includes the time advance, the preset condition may be that the time advance is smaller than a second threshold; when the parameters of the correlation peak include the power of the random access preamble and the time advance, the preset condition may be that the power of the random access preamble is greater than a first threshold and the time advance is less than a second threshold.
Usually, the base station can only obtain one correlation peak falling in a zero correlation window according to a received random access preamble, but when energy leakage occurs to a random access preamble received by the base station, the base station may obtain a plurality of correlation peaks falling in a zero correlation window after performing correlation calculation, or a plurality of correlation peaks falling in a plurality of zero correlation windows, wherein only one correlation peak is obtained according to the random access preamble and a pre-stored random access preamble set, and the remaining correlation peaks are obtained according to a leaked signal of the random access preamble and the pre-stored random access preamble set. When the parameter of the correlation peak included in the random access response message sent by the base station to the terminal is the parameter of the correlation peak obtained according to the leaked signal of the random access preamble, the random access failure may be caused because there is a large deviation between the parameter of the correlation peak obtained according to the leaked signal of the random access preamble and the parameter of the correlation peak obtained according to the random access preamble. In addition, based on the similar description above, random access failure may also be caused by reasons such as inaccurate timing of the base station, incorrect interpretation of interference noise as the random access preamble, and the like, which is not described herein again. Based on the reasons, the base station can reduce the influence of factors such as signal leakage, inaccurate terminal timing and misjudgment of interference noise as the random access lead code on the random access process by selecting the parameters of the correlation peak meeting the preset conditions, and the success rate of the random access is improved. When the power of the random access preamble of the correlation peak is greater than the first threshold, the correlation peak is obtained from the random access preamble transmitted by the terminal, and is not obtained from the leaked signal or interference noise of the random access preamble. When the time advance of the correlation peak is smaller than the second threshold, the correlation peak is obtained according to the random access lead code sent by the terminal to the base station at the time determined by the configuration parameters issued by the base station, but not according to the random access lead code sent by the terminal in advance or in a delayed manner.
Based on the above principle, in S303, when there is a parameter of a correlation peak that satisfies a preset condition in parameters of correlation peaks in each zero correlation window that falls in at least one zero correlation window, the base station may send a random access response message including the parameter of the correlation peak that satisfies the preset condition to the terminal, so that the terminal may adjust its configuration according to the parameter of the correlation peak and complete random access, thereby avoiding the base station sending an invalid random access response, contributing to shortening a random access delay, contributing to reducing a random access failure rate, contributing to reducing base station resource waste, and contributing to accelerating an operation speed of the base station.
Preferably, when there is no parameter of a correlation peak satisfying a preset condition among the parameters of correlation peaks falling within each of the at least one zero correlation window, the base station determines that the terminal is not allowed to perform random access based on the received random access preamble. Therefore, the base station is prevented from sending invalid random access response to the terminal, the resource waste of the base station is reduced, and the operation speed of the base station is accelerated.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the first threshold and the second threshold may be set by configuring a parameter of the base station. When configuring the first threshold, the target received power of the random access preamble sent by the receiving terminal configured by the base station may be referred to, and the first threshold is set to a value less than or equal to the target received power, so as to meet the requirements in practical applications. It should be noted that, in addition to the above method for determining the first threshold, the first threshold may also be determined by other methods in the prior art, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
In the embodiment of the present invention, when configuring the second threshold, one of the following two manners may be adopted:
the first method is as follows: m calculated by the following formula may be used to indicate that the timing advance may be close to the maximum value in the case of forward window, and the setting of the second threshold of the base station is performed with reference to the calculated M:
M=(Ncs—1)*Nseq/(Nzc*m)
wherein N isseqFor the length of the random access preamble, NzcFor a sequence length, N, of a Zadoff-Chu sequence included in a set of random access preamble codes corresponding to a zero correlation windowcsM is a non-zero integer and is the length of the zero correlation window in which the correlation peak is located.
The second method comprises the following steps: according to the cell radius of the cell belonging to the base station, calculating the time advance corresponding to the signal sent by the terminal at the edge of the cell by the following formula, and setting the second threshold to be greater than or equal to the time advance:
timing advance (r × n)/(c × ts × k)
