Description

Cell switching control method and base station
Technical Field
The embodiment of the invention relates to the technical field of mobile communication, in particular to a cell switching control method and a base station.
Background
With the development of mobile communication technology, Long Term Evolution (LTE) of universal mobile telecommunications technology has occupied a large amount of user market share with its superior characteristics. In LTE, Enhanced Single Radio Voice Call Continuity (ESRVCC) is a more important technology. The ESRVCC is an enhancement to Single Radio Voice Call Continuity (SRVCC). SRVCC refers to a technology in which, when a User roams from an Evolved UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN) to a UMTS Radio Access Network (UMTS Radio Access Network, UTRAN)/GSM EDGE Radio Access Network (GSM EDGE Radio Access Network, GERAN) in a call process, voice call continuity is maintained through switching between a User Equipment (UE) and a Network device, that is, the User call is not interrupted.
The ESRVCC optimizes the networking of SRVCC. Specifically, the ESRVCC sets an Access Transfer Control Function (ATCF) ATCF/Access Transfer Gateway ATGW (ATGW) Function entity between a P-CSCF and an I-CSCF/S-CSCF of a Call Session Control (CSCF) node by setting the ATGW Function, and anchors a media stream to the ATGW for a Call that may have SRVCC handover, so that when SRVCC handover occurs subsequently, only media information on the ATGW needs to be updated, and media information of remote UE does not need to be updated, which shortens the entire SRVCC handover time.
Specifically, the flow of the ESRVCC mainly includes a preparation phase, an IST phase, and an execution phase. The execution stage mainly includes that the UE is synchronously accessed in a Global System for Mobile communication (GSM) network, an Enhanced Mobile Switching Center (EMSC) is informed that the UE is successfully accessed through a Base Station Controller (BSC) and a Mobile Switching Center (MSC), and then the EMSC forwards the PS to CS Switching completion to a Mobile Management Entity (MME) through an Sv interface to inform the user that the Switching is successful, and then the MME triggers and deletes all LTE lower layer bearers of the UE.
However, when performing the ESRVCC handover, a handover failure may occur, that is, the user cannot access the target GSM cell synchronously, at this time, in order to keep the volte (voice Over LTE) call from dropping, the UE may select Radio Resource Control (RRC) to re-establish the LTE cell, send a request to the source LTE cell, the source LTE cell sends a handover cancel request to the MME after receiving the request, and the source LTE cell records that the UE fails to perform the ESRVCC handover once.
For the case of handover failure, in the prior art, there is a penalty mechanism of the source LTE cell for the UE and the target cell, and the penalty mechanism is generally in the following form: during the call, the UE may initiate an ESRVCC handover attempt to the same target cell again, and the source LTE cell allows the UE to continuously initiate x handover retries (x is a preset value) to the target cell; after x times, for the switching retry of the UE for the target cell in the call process, the source cell does not initiate a switching request to the target cell any more, so that the increase of the call drop rate caused by abnormal reasons is prevented.
However, the penalty mechanism is a point-to-point penalty, that is, only for a specific terminal and a specific target cell in the current call. For example, when x is 1, after the terminal UEa fails to perform the ESRVCC handover from the source LTE cell to the target cell M and establishes the source LTE cell again, the terminal UEa has a handover request opportunity to the target cell M in the call; however, in some sudden GSM low-access scenarios (for example, when a GSM jammer is turned on in an examination), multiple UEs such as UEb and UEc may exist, and a large number of ESRVCC handover requests to a target cell X with low access may be generated in a short time, so that radio resources are occupied, and channel congestion is caused; and at this time, because of the first request, the source LTE cell cannot reject, the MME and EMSC coordination resources are still found, and the source LTE cell is established back in the execution stage failure, which finally causes the opening of the handover penalty of the source LTE cell side of multiple UEs such as UEb and UEc, and affects the handover success rate of the ESRVCC.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, 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 some, but not all, embodiments of the present invention. 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.
Fig. 1 shows a flowchart of a cell handover control method according to an embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, a cell handover control method provided in the embodiment of the present invention is applied to a source cell, and the method specifically includes the following steps:
step 101, when a failure handoff request sent by a terminal is received, determining a target cell corresponding to the failure handoff request; the failure switch-back request is a switch-back request after the terminal fails to execute the enhanced single wireless voice call continuity (ESRVCC) switch.
And the terminal is any terminal in the coverage range of the source cell. When executing the ESRVCC handover, if the handover fails, the terminal sends a failed handover request to the source cell, that is, a reestablishment request after the terminal fails to execute the ESRVCC handover, so as to reestablish the source cell.
After receiving the failed back-cut request of the terminal, the source cell determines a target cell corresponding to the failed back-cut request according to the failed back-cut request so as to determine the current accessibility condition of the target cell. The target cell is the target cell in the ESRVCC handover corresponding to the failed handover back request.
Typically, the source cell is an LTE cell and the target cell is a GSM cell.
Step 102, determining the request times of the failed handoff request corresponding to the target cell.
Wherein, the failed handoff request in this step is a failed handoff request corresponding to the target cell, which is sent by any terminal in the coverage of the source cell, that is, the number of requests determined in this step is the number of requests of the failed handoff request corresponding to a specific target cell, and the initiating end of the failed handoff request is one or at least two UEs; i.e. a many-to-one relationship between the terminal and the target cell.
For example, when there are 4 UEs within the coverage of the source cell, which are a, b, c, and d, respectively, where a, b, and c send a failed handover request corresponding to the target cell e to the source cell, and d sends a failed handover request corresponding to the target cell f to the source cell; at this time, the sum of the numbers of failed handoff requests transmitted by a, b, and c is the number of requests corresponding to the failed handoff request of the target cell e, and the number of failed handoff requests transmitted by d is the number of requests corresponding to the failed handoff request of the target cell f.
Step 103, when the request times reach a preset threshold of the target cell, stopping forwarding the ESRVCC handover request for the target cell.
Specifically, when the request number reaches (is greater than or equal to) a preset threshold of the target cell, it may be determined that the target cell is currently in a situation with low accessibility, at this time, a penalty mechanism is applied to the target cell, forwarding of the ESRVCC handover request for the target cell to the MME is stopped, and the ESRVCC handover procedure is stopped.
For example, for the target cell e, when the number of times of the request corresponding to the failed handover request of the target cell e has reached the preset threshold of the target cell e, and then the source cell receives the ESRVCC handover request from any terminal to the target cell e again, the source cell does not respond to the handover request and does not forward the handover request to the MME, so as to avoid that multiple different UEs within the coverage of the source cell perform ESRVCC handover and fail to perform the ESRVCC handover for multiple times in a short time under a low-access scenario of the target cell e, thereby affecting the success rate of the ESRVCC handover.
Optionally, the preset threshold of the target cell may be preset.
As a first example, referring to fig. 2, in a scenario diagram shown in fig. 2, an interaction diagram of a cell handover control method including a UE, a source cell, an MME and a target cell is shown; the method mainly comprises the following main processes:
the UE sends a measurement report to a source cell.
And the UE sends a measurement report to the source cell, wherein the measurement report carries the name or the identifier of the target cell.
2. The source cell forwards the ESRVCC handover request to the MME.
And 3, the MME sends an ESRVCC switching request to the target cell.
And 4, the UE fails to switch to the target cell.
And 5, the UE sends a failure switching back request to the source cell.
6. And when the request times reach a preset threshold value of the target cell, executing a punishment mechanism on the target cell, and stopping forwarding the ESRVCC switching request aiming at the target cell.
When a punishment mechanism is executed on the target cell, the source cell does not forward the handover request to the MME any more, so as to avoid that the success rate of the ESRVCC handover is influenced by the fact that a plurality of different UEs in the coverage area of the source cell execute the ESRVCC handover and fail the handover for a plurality of times in a short time under the low-access scene of the target cell.
In the above embodiment of the present invention, when receiving a failed back-cut request corresponding to a target cell sent by a terminal, determining the number of request times of all failed back-cut requests corresponding to the target cell, and when the number of request times reaches a preset threshold, starting a penalty mechanism for the target cell, stopping forwarding the ESRVCC handover request for the target cell, and no longer allowing any terminal to perform ESRVCC handover to the target cell, thereby implementing cell-level linkage penalty, avoiding a situation that multiple different UEs within a coverage area of a source cell perform ESRVCC handover and fail handover within a short time under a low-access scene, and improving the success rate of ESRVCC handover. The embodiment of the invention solves the problem that a punishment mechanism of ESRVCC switching failure in the prior art is easy to generate a large number of ESRVCC switching requests in a short time to influence the success rate of ESRVCC switching.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the step of determining the number of times of requests of the failed handoff request corresponding to the target cell includes:
determining the request times of the failed handoff request corresponding to the target cell within a first preset time length.
Determining a time limit of the number of times of requests corresponding to the failed handoff request of the target cell as a first preset time length to improve accuracy of a result of determining the accessibility of the target cell, for example, if the first preset time length is a short time, ten minutes or fifteen minutes, and the like, if the number of times of requests exceeds a preset threshold, it may be determined that the accessibility of the target cell is poor; if the first preset duration is not set, the request times may be data in a longer time, and the result of determining whether the target cell is accessible loses referential.
Further, in this embodiment of the present invention, the step of determining the number of times of requests of the failed handover request corresponding to the target cell within the first preset time period includes:
starting a first timer aiming at the target cell, wherein the timing time of the first timer is the first preset time length;
determining a number of received requests corresponding to failed handoff requests of the target cell within a timing time of the first timer.
When a source LTE cell side receives a reestablishment request which is failed to be executed by a first UE aiming at an ESRVCC of a target cell, a first timer aiming at the target cell is started, wherein the first timer is used for limiting the counting time of the request times of the failed reconnection request so as to judge the accessibility of the target cell.
Alternatively, the timer is maintained for the source cell side and may be initially set to fifteen minutes.
After the first timer starts timing, the number of requests of failed switchback requests is counted (determined). And the counted failed handoff requests are the failed handoff requests which are sent by any terminal in the coverage of the source cell and correspond to the target cell.
Further, in this embodiment of the present invention, the step of determining the number of times of requests of the failed handover request corresponding to the target cell, which are received within the timing time of the first timer, includes:
starting a first counter for the target cell;
controlling the first counter to increment a count value by one each time a failed handoff request corresponding to the target cell is received;
and determining the request times according to the counting value of the first counter.
Wherein the first counter is started simultaneously when the first timer is started. The first counter is used for counting the request times of the failed switching back request. For example, within the timing time of the first timer, every time a failed handoff back request corresponding to the target cell is received, the count value of the first counter is incremented by one; the failed handoff back requests may be from different UEs but all correspond to the target cell.
For example, the target cell is an X cell, the first timer for the X cell is a timer a, the first counter for the X cell is a counter B, and when the timer a is started and every time a failed handover request for performing an ERSVCC handover to establish a source cell is received, the count value of the counter B is increased by 1.
And determining the request times according to the counting value of the first counter within the timing time of the first timer.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, after the step of determining the number of requests of the failed handover request corresponding to the target cell, the method further includes:
and when the request times do not reach the preset threshold value of the target cell, setting the counting number value of the first counter to zero.
That is to say, within the timing time of the first timer, when it is determined that the number of requests does not reach the preset threshold of the target cell according to the count value of the first counter, it may be determined that the target cell is not currently in a condition with low accessibility, and without executing a penalty mechanism, the count value of the first counter is set to zero, so that the first counter can normally operate when the first timer is started next time.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, after the step of when the number of requests reaches the preset threshold of the target cell, the method further includes:
and closing the first timer.
That is, if the number of requests has reached the preset threshold value when the timing time of the first timer has not ended (i.e., the first timer has not timed out), it may be determined that the target cell is currently in a condition with low accessibility, at this time, a penalty mechanism is applied to the target cell, and the first timer is turned off.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the step of stopping forwarding the ESRVCC handover request for the target cell includes:
starting a second timer for the target cell;
stopping forwarding the handover request of the ESRVCC of the target cell within the timing time of the second timer.
In this step, when the number of requests reaches (is greater than or equal to) the preset threshold of the target cell, it may be determined that the target cell is currently in a situation with lower accessibility, at this time, a penalty mechanism is implemented for the target cell, a second timer for the target cell is started, and forwarding of an ESRVCC handover request for the target cell to an MME is stopped within the timing time of the second timer, so that an ESRVCC handover procedure is stopped within the timing time of the second timer, and in the timing time of the second timer, occurrence of situations where multiple different UEs within a coverage area of a source cell respectively perform ESRVCC handover for multiple times and handover fails can be effectively avoided, so as to improve an ESRVCC handover success rate.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, after the step of starting the second timer for the target cell, the method further includes:
starting a third timer for the target cell when the second timer times out;
and starting the second timer if a failed handoff request corresponding to the target cell is received within the timing time of the third timer.
When the second timer times out, the source cell may normally forward the ESRVCC handover request corresponding to the target cell, and at this time, start a third timer for the target cell to check whether a failed handover back request corresponding to the target cell is received again within a preset time period (i.e., a timing time of the third timer) after the second timer times out; and if the failed switching-back request corresponding to the target cell is received again, starting the second timer again, and stopping forwarding the switching request of the ESRVCC aiming at the target cell within the timing time of the second timer.
Further, in this embodiment of the present invention, the step of starting the second timer includes:
and starting the second timer, and increasing the current timing duration of the second timer by a preset value.
After the second timer is restarted, it indicates that the failed back-off requests corresponding to the current target cell are relatively dense, and the situation of low accessibility cannot be relieved under the condition of the timing duration of the second timer for one time, at this time, the current timing duration of the second timer is increased by a preset value, so as to optimize the timing duration of the second timer and improve the ESRVCC switching success rate.
In the above embodiment of the present invention, upon receiving a failed handoff request corresponding to a target cell sent by the terminal, a first timer for the target cell is started, determining the request times of all failed handoff requests corresponding to the target cell through a first counter within the timing time of a first timer, and starting a punishment mechanism for the target cell when the request times reach a preset threshold value, and in the timing time of the second timer, the forwarding of the ESRVCC switching request aiming at the target cell is stopped, any terminal is not allowed to execute the ESRVCC switching to the target cell any more, the cell-level linkage punishment is realized, the condition that a plurality of different UEs in the coverage range of the source cell execute the ESRVCC switching for a plurality of times and the switching fails in a short time under the condition that the target cell is in a low-access scene is avoided, and the success rate of the ESRVCC switching is improved.
Next, a cell handover control method according to an embodiment of the present invention is described as a second example.
Referring to fig. 3, in the scene diagram shown in fig. 3, the source cell is a source cell X, and the target cell is a target cell Y; in conjunction with fig. 4, the flowchart shown in fig. 4 is a flowchart of the method of the present example.
Specifically, the method flowchart shown in fig. 4 mainly includes the following steps:
in step 401, when the source cell X receives the failed handoff request from the terminal U1, it is determined that the target cell corresponding to the failed handoff request is the target cell Y.
When the source cell X side receives the failed handoff request from the first terminal U1, it determines that the target GSM cell corresponding to the failed handoff request is the target cell Y.
In step 402, a timer a and a counter B for the target cell Y are started.
The method comprises the steps of starting a timer A for judging whether a target cell Y can be accessed, wherein the timer A is maintained on the source cell side, the initial time can be set to 15 minutes, and simultaneously starting a counter B for judging whether the target cell Y can be accessed. When the timer a is started, the counter B is incremented by 1 each time a failed handover request is received from any terminal (which may be any one of the terminal U1, the terminal U2.
Step 403, in the timing time of the timer a, judging whether the count value of the counter B reaches the preset threshold of the target cell Y:
if yes, go to step 404;
otherwise, step 405 is executed, the timer a is stopped, and the next time the ERSVCC handover execution phase fails, the method is started again.
Step 404, starting a timer C for the target cell Y, and stopping forwarding the handover request of the ESRVCC for the target cell within the timing time of the timer C.
Wherein, the timer C is a penalty timer. The penalty timer is not overtime, the source cell X side ignores all received ESRVCC switching requests aiming at the target cell Y, and the ESRVCC switching requests are not forwarded to the MME side.
Step 406, when the timer C times out, a timer D for the target cell Y is started.
Wherein, the timer D is the check timer. And starting when the timer C stops, and checking whether a failed handoff request for the target cell Y is received again within a preset time period when the timer C stops.
Step 407, if the failed handoff request for the target cell Y is received again within the timing time of the timer D, the timer C is started again, and the penalty mechanism for the target cell Y is started.
In the timing time of the timer D, once the source cell X receives the failed handover request of the target cell Y again, the timer D is stopped, and the timing time of the timer C is automatically adjusted, for example, the timer time is increased by 2 minutes on the original basis.
While the timer a and the counter B are started again.
In the second example of the invention, when a failed back-cut request corresponding to a target cell Y sent by a terminal is received, a timer A corresponding to the target cell Y is started, the request times of all the failed back-cut requests corresponding to the target cell Y are determined by a counter B within the timing time of the timer A, a penalty mechanism for the target cell is started when the request times reach a preset threshold, forwarding of an ESRVCC handover request aiming at the target cell Y is stopped within the timing time of the timer C, no terminal is allowed to perform the ESCC handover to the target cell any more, cell-level linkage penalty and autonomous judgment of whether an opposite terminal GSM cell possibly has a low-access condition by a source cell X are realized, the situation that a plurality of different UEs within the coverage range of the source cell respectively perform the ESCC handover and fail the handover is avoided within a short time when the target cell is in the low-access scene, the possibility of steep decline of the success rate of the ESRVCC switching caused by burst GSM low access is reduced.
The cell switching control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is described above, and a base station provided by the embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to fig. 5, an embodiment of the present invention provides a base station 500, where the base station 500 includes:
a receiving module 501, configured to determine a target cell corresponding to a failed handoff request when receiving the failed handoff request sent by a terminal; the failure switch-back request is a switch-back request after the terminal fails to execute the enhanced single wireless voice call continuity (ESRVCC) switch.
And the terminal is any terminal in the coverage range of the source cell. When executing the ESRVCC handover, if the handover fails, the terminal sends a failed handover request to the source cell, that is, a reestablishment request after the terminal fails to execute the ESRVCC handover, so as to reestablish the source cell.
After receiving the failed handoff request of the terminal, the receiving module 501 determines a target cell corresponding to the failed handoff request according to the failed handoff request, so as to determine the current accessibility condition of the target cell. The target cell is the target cell in the ESRVCC handover corresponding to the failed handover back request.
Typically, the source cell is an LTE cell and the target cell is a GSM cell.
A determining module 502 for determining a number of requests corresponding to failed handoff requests of the target cell.
Wherein, the failed handoff request is a failed handoff request corresponding to the target cell and sent by any terminal in the coverage of the source cell, that is, the request times determined by the determining module 502 are the request times of the failed handoff request corresponding to a specific target cell, and the initiating end of the failed handoff request is one or at least two UEs; i.e. a many-to-one relationship between the terminal and the target cell.
A stopping module 503, configured to stop forwarding the ESRVCC handover request for the target cell when the number of requests reaches a preset threshold of the target cell.
