For active positioning products, for example, a portable base station, a mobile base station and other mobile base stations, the mobile base station can actively transmit signals outwards, attract the mobile terminal (such as a mobile phone) to update the position of the mobile base station, and further measure the relative distance between the mobile terminal and a target mobile phone through parameter information carried in an uplink measurement report signaling. The user can carry the mobile base station to continuously move, and the relative distance between the user and the target mobile phone is judged based on the change of RSRP/RSSI/SNR.

Aiming at the technical problem that the mobile phone is not accurately positioned based on the change of RSSI/SNR under the condition that the RSRP in the mobile phone measurement report can not be obtained in the related technology in the prior art, the embodiment of the invention provides the following solution thought: periodically inquiring the international mobile subscriber identification code of the target mobile terminal; acquiring a power margin value reported by a target mobile terminal; determining an uplink path loss value according to the maximum transmitting power value and the power margin value of the target mobile terminal; and positioning the target mobile terminal according to the uplink path loss value, wherein the uplink path loss value is positively correlated with the distance between the target base station and the target mobile terminal.
Under the guidance of this idea, the present embodiment provides the following feasible embodiments.
The embodiment of the invention provides a positioning method of a mobile terminal.
Specifically, please refer to fig. 1, which is a schematic flow chart of a selectable positioning method of a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps:
step 101, periodically inquiring the international mobile subscriber identity of a target mobile terminal;
102, acquiring a power margin value reported by a target mobile terminal;
103, determining an uplink loss value according to the maximum transmitting power value and the power margin value of the target mobile terminal;
and 104, positioning the target mobile terminal according to the uplink path loss value, wherein the uplink path loss value is positively correlated with the distance between the target base station and the target mobile terminal.
Alternatively, the target base station may be a mobile base station, e.g., a portable base station, etc.
It should be noted that the execution subject of steps 101 to 104 may be a positioning apparatus of the mobile terminal, and the apparatus may be an application located in a local terminal, where the local terminal may be the target base station itself or one of the constituent devices of the target base station. Alternatively, the positioning apparatus of the mobile terminal may also be a functional unit such as a plug-in or Software Development Kit (SDK) located in an application of the local terminal, which is not particularly limited in this embodiment of the present invention. It should be understood that the application may be an application program (native app) installed on the terminal, or may also be a web page program (webApp) of a browser on the terminal, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 2, taking the above-mentioned local terminal as an example of a computer device, a computer device provided in an embodiment of the present invention includes a memory 21, a processor 22, and a computer program stored in the memory 21 and executable on the processor 22, and when the processor 22 executes the computer program, the method for positioning a mobile terminal according to any of the foregoing embodiments is implemented.
Optionally, the mobile terminal according to the embodiment of the present invention may include, but is not limited to, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a wireless handheld device, a Tablet Computer (Tablet Computer), a mobile phone, an MP3 player, an MP4 player, and the like.
The following explains the steps 101 to 104 further by taking the embodiment of the present invention as an example executed by a functional module of a mobile base station as follows:
after the Mobile terminal accesses the Mobile base station through the Attach procedure signaling or Tracking Area Update (TAU), the Mobile base station may determine whether the Mobile terminal is a target Mobile terminal that needs to be located through an International Mobile Subscriber identity Number (IMSI) of the Mobile terminal.
If the mobile base station determines that the target mobile terminal is the target mobile terminal, step 101 is executed to periodically query the international mobile subscriber identity of the target mobile terminal to maintain communication with the target mobile terminal and keep the target mobile terminal "on-line". Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, the mobile base station periodically queries the international mobile subscriber Identity (imsi) of the target mobile station through an Identity query Request (Identity Request), and the mobile phone periodically sends an Identity Response (Identity Response) in Response to the mobile base station, so as to maintain the communication connection between the target mobile station and the mobile base station.
For example, when a preset period PHR timer reaches a period or when a path loss change is large, the target mobile terminal is triggered to actively report the PHR, so that the mobile base station can obtain the Power Headroom value reported by the target mobile terminal.
After obtaining the power margin value of the target mobile terminal, the mobile base station may determine the uplink path loss value according to the maximum transmission power value and the power margin value of the target mobile terminal. The uplink loss value is a loss value of an uplink, the uplink refers to a link transmitted by the mobile terminal and received by the base station, and the loss of the uplink is positively correlated with the distance between the mobile terminal and the base station.
Optionally, the step of determining the uplink loss value according to the maximum transmission power value and the power margin value of the target mobile terminal may be implemented as follows: determining the average power of each resource block transmitted by the target mobile terminal according to the maximum transmitting power value, the power margin value and the number of the resource blocks transmitted by the target mobile terminal; and determining an uplink loss value according to the average power and the signal-to-noise ratio of the uplink channel.
The number of resource blocks transmitted by the target mobile terminal can be configured by the target base station, and in order to make the measurement result more accurate, the number of resource blocks transmitted to the target mobile terminal each time can be configured to be a specified value by the target base station before the power margin value reported by the target mobile terminal is acquired.
The present embodiment further provides an optional implementation manner, where before the power headroom value reported by the target mobile terminal is obtained, the reporting period of the power headroom value is configured to be the minimum value by the target base station. The optional implementation mode can minimize the time interval between two power margin values reported by the target mobile terminal, and improve the measurement efficiency.
Optionally, the step of determining the average power of each resource block transmitted by the target mobile terminal according to the maximum transmission power value, the power margin value, and the number of resource blocks transmitted by the target mobile terminal may adopt the following formula: PWR/RB ═ P _ MAX-PHR-10 log (UL _ PRB) (equation 1); the step of determining the uplink loss value according to the average power and the signal-to-noise ratio of the uplink channel may use the following formula: PL ═ PWR/RB-SNR-p (n) (equation 2); where PWR/RB is an average power per Resource Block (RB) expressed by a logarithm, P _ MAX is a maximum transmission power value expressed by a logarithm, PHR is a power margin value expressed by a logarithm, UL _ PRB is the number of Resource blocks, PL is an uplink loss value expressed by a logarithm, SNR is a signal-to-noise ratio expressed by a logarithm, and P (n) is a noise power value expressed by a logarithm.
Optionally, when the target base station is a Time Division Duplex (TDD) base station, the uplink and downlink channels are symmetric, the uplink path loss value is approximately equal to the downlink path loss value, and further, the downlink path loss value can be determined by the uplink path loss value, and then the Reference Signal Receiving Power (RSRP) is determined according to the downlink path loss value and the Reference Signal Power (RSP), where the Reference Signal Power is broadcast by the base station and known to both the base station and the target mobile terminal; and then, after the reference signal receiving power is determined, positioning the target mobile terminal according to the reference signal receiving power.
In the case where the target base station is a mobile base station, the position of the mobile base station may be moved, and uplink loss values at a plurality of positions may be measured, thereby relating the relative position between the target mobile terminal and the mobile base station.
For example, in the above optional implementation manner provided in this embodiment, when the step 104 is executed to locate the target mobile terminal according to the uplink loss value, the following specific steps are executed:
step 201, obtaining a power margin value reported by a target mobile terminal received by a mobile base station when the mobile base station is at each of a plurality of positions;
step 202, determining an uplink path loss value of the mobile base station under the condition of being at a corresponding position based on the difference value between the maximum transmitting power value and each received power margin value;
step 203, determining the relative position relationship between the target mobile terminal and the mobile base station according to the uplink loss values obtained when the mobile base station is at a plurality of positions.
The positioning method of the mobile terminal of the embodiment of the invention at least has the following beneficial effects:
the communication connection with the target mobile terminal is maintained by periodically inquiring the international mobile subscriber identity of the target mobile terminal, so that the power margin value reported by the target mobile terminal is further obtained, the uplink loss value can be determined according to the maximum transmitting power value and the power margin value of the target mobile terminal, and the target mobile terminal can be positioned according to the uplink loss value. The technical problem that the mobile phone is not accurately positioned based on the change of the RSSI/SNR under the condition that the RSRP in the mobile phone measurement report can not be obtained in the related technology is solved, and the effect of more accurately determining the distance between the mobile phone and the base station through the uplink path loss value can be achieved.
The following describes the above embodiments with reference to a specific application scenario in which a portable base station locates a mobile phone supporting a 3GPP Release 10 protocol (Release 10, abbreviated as R10) or a version of the above protocol, as follows:
step 1, establishing direct connection between a target mobile phone and a mobile base station, and keeping the target mobile phone online:
since the R10 protocol version begins to stipulate that measurement reporting is not performed before security activation, RSRP of the target mobile phone cannot be acquired, so that the target mobile phone can be kept "on-line", and the base station performs positioning by calculating an uplink loss value.
Specifically, the mobile phone accesses the mobile base station through Attach/TAU, the mobile base station judges whether a target mobile phone needs to be positioned after acquiring the IMSI of the mobile phone, if so, the IMSI of the mobile phone is periodically inquired, and the mobile phone periodically sends an Identity Response, so that the connection between the target mobile phone and the mobile base station is maintained.
Step 2, the base station calculates the path loss value (uplink path loss value) of the uplink channel, and judges the relative distance between the target mobile phone and the base station according to the path loss value:
the mobile phone triggers the PHR when the periodic PHR timer reaches a period or the path loss changes greatly, so the base station can calculate the path loss value according to the PHR reported by the mobile phone, the calculation formulas are formula 1 and formula 2, and it should be noted that the values calculated by formula 1 and formula 2 are both logarithmic values.
After calculating the PL value, the user can determine the relative distance to the target handset by observing the change in PL by continuously moving the portable base station. Since the variation of RSRP/RSSI/SNR with distance is that the value is smaller when the distance is farther, and the value is larger when the distance is farther, the PL may not conform to the usage habit of the user, so the PL may be converted and reported to the background, and an optional implementation formula is: PL (new) ═ PL (max) -PL. The scaled PL (new) trend with distance is consistent with RSRP/RSSI/SNR. In order to avoid the situation that the PL fluctuates severely, the PL can be subjected to smoothing operation processing and then reported to the background.
In order to make the PL value calculated by the base station more accurate, the number of PRBs allocated for uplink scheduling may be fixed. According to the formula 1, the uplink path loss calculation is related to the number of the RB allocated to the uplink, so that the number of the allocated RB is fixed, the calculated PL value can reflect the distance change more accurately relative to the change, and the fluctuation can be reduced.
In addition, the reporting period of the PHR can be set to a minimum value. According to formula 1, the uplink path loss calculation is related to the PHR, so that the base station can update the PHR in time, and the calculated PL looks more sensitive along with the distance change.
For the TDD base station, RSRP may be calculated according to the uplink loss value:
for example, according to a calculation formula of Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) transmission power of the 3GPP protocol: p _ pusch (i) ═ min { P _ CMAX,10log (M _ pusch (i)) + P _ O _ pusch (j)) + alpha (j) PL + Delta _ tf (i)) + f (i);
wherein PL is the downlink path loss, and the calculation method comprises the following steps: PL-RSRP.
Therefore, RSRP is PL (downlink) -RSP
For TDD, uplink and downlink channels may be considered symmetric, and PL (downlink) may be considered as PL (uplink).
Therefore, RSRP is PL (uplink) -RSP
Since the base station has already calculated the PL (uplink) in the positioning process, the RSP is broadcast by the base station in the sib2 and is known to both the base station and the handset, the RSRP of the handset can be calculated according to the above formula, so that the positioning measurement value can be consistent with that of the handset supporting the R8 protocol.
The problem that mobile phones of R10 and above cannot report measurement can be solved by positioning by using the path loss value, and the sensitivity of the method is higher relative to the change of RSSI/SNR along with the distance. And for the TDD mobile phone, the RSRP can be further calculated by utilizing the uplink path loss value, so that the reported values of all the mobile phones are uniform, and the measurement data can be conveniently processed by a background.
Based on the positioning method of the mobile terminal provided by the embodiment of the invention, the embodiment of the invention further provides an embodiment of a device for realizing the steps and the method in the embodiment of the method.
