Description
Technical Field

Background
The Minimization of Drive Test (MDT) technology (Minimization of drive tests) mainly obtains relevant parameters required by network optimization through measurement reports reported by terminals (such as mobile phones) so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the network optimization and maintenance costs of operators.
In the minimization of drive tests, it is possible for the network to configure terminal measurements and report WLAN/BT (wireless local area network/bluetooth) measurements for calculating the terminal (UE) location. The UE receiving the MDT measurement configuration is likely to measure WLAN/BT devices of nearby individual users as well, but these measurements are not useful for calculating UE location, and can increase air interface signaling overhead and occupy MDT storage space in the UE.
In the prior art, in order to avoid that the terminal reports useless measurement results, the network specifies the type of the identifier by specifying a field when issuing the MDT configuration, for example: SSID (Service Set Identifier ), local Name (device Name) and UUID (Universally Unique Identifier, universal unique identification code), etc., instructs the terminal to report only measurement results of a specific WLAN/BT device, thereby avoiding the terminal from measuring and reporting useless measurement results in the MDT process.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. It will be apparent that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments, which are obtained by a person skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of the invention, fall within the scope of protection of the invention.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a flowchart of a configuration method of minimization of drive tests according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the method is applied to a network side device, and includes the following steps:
step 11: transmitting configuration information of the minimization of drive tests to a terminal, wherein the configuration information comprises:
at least one specified identifier type and a reporting upper limit value corresponding to a specified identifier in each specified identifier type, wherein each specified identifier type comprises at least one specified identifier; or alternatively, the process may be performed,
at least one designated identifier and a reporting upper limit value corresponding to each designated identifier.
The configuration method of the minimization drive tests provided by the embodiment of the invention limits the number of measurement results reported by the terminal through the appointed identification type or the appointed identification in the configuration information sent to the terminal and the reporting upper limit value corresponding to each appointed identification type (each appointed identification in the appointed identification type corresponds to the reporting upper limit value) or the reporting upper limit value corresponding to each appointed identification. That is, the limiting terminal only reports the measurement results corresponding to the specified identifier type or the specified identifier, wherein the number of measurement results corresponding to the specified identifier in the specified identifier type does not exceed the reporting upper limit value corresponding to the specified identifier type, or the number of measurement results corresponding to the specified identifier does not exceed the reporting upper limit value corresponding to the specified identifier. Thereby controlling the number of the measurement results for reporting, and further reducing the terminal storage space occupied by storing the measurement results for reporting and the overhead when reporting the measurement results.
Specifically, the specified identification type includes at least one of: a service set identifier (Service Set Identifier, SSID for short), a device Name (Local Name), and a universally unique identifier (Universally Unique Identifier, UUID for short). The specified identifiers in the service set identifier can be CMCC, CMCC-WEB, CMCC-EDU and the like. Through the three types of the identifiers, the corresponding wireless local area network equipment or Bluetooth equipment can be conveniently distinguished, and whether the wireless local area network equipment or the Bluetooth equipment is deployed by an operator, a third party or a personal device can be conveniently distinguished.
In the embodiment of the invention, the configuration information of the minimization of drive tests can be issued to the terminal through RRC (radio resource control) signaling, can be issued to the terminal through special measurement configuration information, and can be issued to the terminal through other signaling. In addition, the report upper limit value corresponding to the specified identifier type in each specified identifier type can be issued simultaneously or separately, that is, the specified identifier type and the report upper limit value can be placed in one piece of configuration information or in two pieces of different configuration information respectively. For example, a specified identifier type may be indicated in an air interface RRC signaling, and a parameter may be added to indicate a reporting upper limit value corresponding to a specified identifier in each specified identifier type; the specified identifier types can be indicated only in the air interface RRC signaling, and the reporting upper limit value corresponding to the specified identifier in each specified identifier type can be indicated in other MDT task parameter configurations. Likewise, the specified identifier and the reporting upper limit value corresponding to each specified identifier may be issued simultaneously or separately.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flowchart of a method for reporting a minimization of drive tests according to a second embodiment of the present invention, where the method is applied to a terminal, and includes the following steps:
step 21: acquiring a measurement result corresponding to the appointed mark in a measurement time;
step 22: selecting a first number of measurement results from the measurement results corresponding to the specified identifiers, wherein the first number does not exceed the reporting upper limit value corresponding to the specified identifiers;

In the method for reporting the minimization drive tests provided by the embodiment of the invention, the terminal selects the measurement results corresponding to the specified identifier from the measurement results measured at each measurement moment, and the number of the selected measurement results corresponding to the specified identifier does not exceed the reporting upper limit value corresponding to the specified identifier. The terminal only reports the selected measurement results, so that the number of measurement results reported by the terminal is limited, the storage space of the terminal for storing the measurement results to be reported is reduced, and the overhead for reporting the measurement results, such as the overhead of air interface signaling, is reduced.
The above-mentioned method for reporting the minimization of drive tests is illustrated below.
The minimization of drive tests can be divided into records MDT (logged MDT) and real-time MDT (immediate MDT) according to the manner in which the measurements and reports are made. 1. Record MDT (logged MDT): the UE (terminal) makes MDT measurements according to logged Measurement Configuration (record measurement configuration). The UE records the measured data for a period of time prior to the reporting of the data. Is typically applied to idle state UEs because no connection is established between the UE and the RAN (Radio Access Network ) node in this state. 2. Immediate MDT (immediate MDT): the UE makes MDT measurements according to RRC Connection Reconfiguration (radio resource control connection reconfiguration). Such UEs report the measured data to the network instantaneously within a measurement time. Is typically applied to UEs in an active state because a connection has been established between the UE and the RAN node in this state. The method for reporting the minimization of drive tests provided by the embodiment of the invention can be suitable for recording the MDT and also can be suitable for instant MDT.
In an optional embodiment, before the step of obtaining the measurement result corresponding to the specified identifier (i.e. step 21) in the one measurement time, the method further includes:

Specifically, a parameter may be added to an air interface RRC (radio resource control) signaling to indicate each of the specified identifier types or reporting upper limit values corresponding to each of the specified identifiers. Or, each specified identifier type or the reporting upper limit value corresponding to each specified identifier may also be issued to the terminal through other MDT task parameter configurations.
In other optional embodiments, before the step of obtaining the measurement result corresponding to the specified identifier in the one measurement time (i.e. step 21), the method further includes:
receiving configuration information of minimization of drive tests sent by network side equipment, wherein the configuration information comprises: at least one specified identification type, each of said specified identification types comprising at least one of said specified identifications; or, at least one of the specified identifications.

Wherein the specified identification type includes at least one of: service set identification, device name, and a universally unique identification code. The specified identifiers in the service set identifier can be CMCC, CMCC-WEB, CMCC-EDU and the like.
In a preferred embodiment, the step of selecting a first number of measurement results from the measurement results corresponding to the specified identifier (i.e. step 22) includes:
step 221: sequencing the measurement results corresponding to the specified identifications according to the intensity of the measurement signals from strong to weak;
step 222: a first number of top ranked measurements is selected from the ranked results.
In the embodiment of the invention, when the measurement result for reporting is selected from the measurement results corresponding to the specified identifiers, the measurement result corresponding to each specified identifier is selected according to the reporting upper limit value corresponding to the specified identifier, wherein the strength of the measurement signal (measured signal) is larger. In other embodiments, the measurement results for reporting may also be selected according to other selection policies.
In addition, since the total number of measurement results reported by the terminal must conform to the requirements of the existing standard protocol, the number requirements and the number of the specified identifiers in the existing standard protocol need to be comprehensively considered when setting the reporting upper limit value corresponding to the specified identifier in the specified identifier type or the reporting upper limit value corresponding to each specified identifier.
The third embodiment of the invention provides a method for reporting the minimization of drive tests, which comprises the following steps:
