Description

Cell determination method and terminal equipment
Technical Field
The embodiment of the invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a cell determining method and terminal equipment.
Background
Circuit Switched Fallback (CSFB) is a mainstream voice service solution. Specifically, when the called terminal device is in standby in one network (e.g., a fourth generation wireless communication network), if a paging message sent by the network device is received, the called terminal device may fall back to another network (e.g., a second generation wireless communication network or a third generation wireless communication network) to perform a call, and after the call is ended, the called terminal device may return to the previous network again.
Currently, there are many situations that may cause the terminating device in CSFB to fail to be called. In order to improve the call completing rate of the called terminal device, the called terminal device usually adds the abnormal cell to the blacklist after the called terminal device fails. Therefore, when the called terminal device receives the paging message sent by the network device next time, if the response message based on the CSFB request message sent by the called terminal device is received, the called terminal device can perform judgment according to the blacklist, so that the called terminal device does not reside in the abnormal cell in the blacklist.
However, when the called terminal device receives the paging message sent by the network device, if a response message sent by the network device and based on the CSFB request message sent by the called terminal device is not received, the called terminal device does not perform determination according to the blacklist, and may reside in an abnormal cell in the blacklist, so that a subsequent call is still executed in the abnormal cell, and the call completing rate of the called terminal device is reduced.

Therefore, the embodiment of the invention can improve the call completing rate of the called terminal equipment.
The cell determining method and the terminal device provided by the embodiment of the invention can be applied to a communication system. Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating a network architecture of a possible communication system according to an embodiment of the present invention. Wherein the communication system comprises at least one terminal 10, one base station 20 and one base station 30, and one core network device 40, and each base station 20 or base station 30 may communicate with one or more terminals 10. In practical applications, the connection between the above devices may be a wireless connection.
It should be noted that fig. 1 described above can be specifically applied to CSFB. For convenience of intuitively representing the connection relationship between the respective devices, the solid line in fig. 1 refers to a network to which the terminal device is currently connected, such as a 5G network or a 4G network; the dashed line refers to the network, e.g. the 3G network or the 2G network, to which the terminal device is about to fall back.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the base station may include various forms of macro base stations, micro base stations, relay stations, access points, and the like. In systems using different radio access technologies, the names of devices that function as base stations may differ. For example, in a 5G system, it may be referred to as a 5G base station (gNB); in a 4G system, such as a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system, it may be referred to as an evolved NodeB (eNB); in a 3G system, it may be referred to as a base station (Node B). As communication technology evolves, the name "base station" may change.
The terminal device in the embodiment of the invention can be a mobile terminal device and can also be a non-mobile terminal device. For example, the mobile terminal device may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a palm computer, a vehicle-mounted terminal device, a wearable device, an ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), a netbook or a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), and the like, and the non-mobile terminal device may be a Personal Computer (PC), a Television (TV), a teller machine or a self-service machine, and the like, and the embodiment of the present invention is not particularly limited.
The execution subject of the cell determining method provided in the embodiment of the present invention may be the terminal device, or may also be a functional module and/or a functional entity capable of implementing the cell determining method in the terminal device, which may be specifically determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited. The following takes a terminal device as an example to exemplarily explain the cell determination method provided by the embodiment of the present invention.
In the embodiment of the invention, after the called party fails, the called terminal equipment usually adds the abnormal cell into the blacklist. When a called terminal device receives a paging message sent by a network device, if a response message sent by the network device and based on a CSFB request message sent by the called terminal device is not received, in order to improve the call completing rate of the called terminal device, the embodiment of the invention provides the following cell determining method.
As shown in fig. 2, an embodiment of the present invention provides a cell determination method. The method can be applied to terminal equipment. The method may include S101 to S103 described below.
S101, under the condition that the terminal equipment does not receive a response message which allows CSFB and is sent by the network equipment within a preset time length, the terminal equipment initiates a network searching request carrying a first identifier.
The first identifier may be used to indicate that the terminal device excludes the blacklisted cell when selecting the camping cell.
It should be noted that the terminal device is a called terminal device. The network device may be a network device in which the terminal device currently resides in a cell, for example, the network device may be a base station 20 or a core network device 40 as shown in fig. 1.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the blacklisted cell may refer to an abnormal cell, that is, a cell which causes a called failure of the terminal device in the CSFB and is marked to be added to the blacklist.
Optionally, the preset time period may be any one of the following: protocol specified, vendor pre-configured, network device configured, terminal device configured.
Optionally, the terminal device may be provided with a timer, and may determine whether the preset duration is reached through timing of the timer. For example: the timer may be T3417ext or other possible timers, etc.
For example, the preset time duration is taken as 4 seconds specified by the protocol. For example, when the timer T3417ext reaches 4 seconds, if the terminal device does not receive a CSFB allowed response message sent by the network device, the terminal device initiates a network searching request carrying the first identifier.
Optionally, the CSFB allowed response message may be used to indicate that the terminal device is allowed to perform CSFB.
Alternatively, the first identifier may be a value of a field, and the first field may be defined by a protocol or set by a network.
For example, the first flag may be a value of a field flag. The first mode is that when the flag is 1, the terminal device is instructed to exclude the blacklisted cell when selecting the camping cell. And the second mode is that when the flag is 0, the terminal equipment is indicated to exclude the blacklisted cell when selecting the resident cell. The embodiments of the present invention are not limited.
Optionally, the number of the blacklisted cells may be at least one.
Optionally, the blacklisted cell may be a cell in a blacklist. The blacklist may be stored in the terminal device or shared with the terminal device for other devices.
Optionally, the network searching request may be initiated by a higher layer of the terminal device. For example, the higher layer may be a non-access stratum (NAS) layer or other possible higher layer of the terminal device.
And S102, the terminal equipment acquires at least one cell according to the network searching request.
It should be noted that the at least one cell is all cells searched by the terminal device according to the network searching request.
Optionally, the at least one cell is obtained for a bottom layer of the terminal device.
Optionally, in the case that a high-level layer of the terminal device initiates a network searching request, the step S102 may specifically be: and the bottom layer of the terminal equipment acquires at least one cell according to a network searching request which is initiated by the high layer of the terminal equipment and carries the first identifier.
For example, the bottom layer of the terminal device may be a GPRS radio resource management (GRR) layer or other possible bottom layers.
S103, the terminal equipment determines one cell except the blacklisted cell in the at least one cell as a resident cell.
It should be noted that the blacklisted cell refers to a blacklisted cell of all the called terminal devices.
Optionally, the blacklisted cells of all the called terminal devices may be a specific cell set, for example, a blacklist. The specific cell set is used for the terminal device to exclude the blacklisted cells from all the searched cells so as to determine the resident cells.
Optionally, when the number of the cells searched by the terminal device is at least two, the terminal device may determine the camping cell through any one of the following possible implementation manners:
in a first possible implementation manner, after the terminal device searches for at least two cells, the terminal device may sort the at least two cells according to the signal strength, and sequentially compare each cell with all blacklisted cells in a specific cell set according to the order from strong to weak of the signal strength. If one cell does not belong to the specific cell set, the terminal device may determine the one cell as a cell to camp on, i.e., a camping cell; if a cell belongs to the specific cell set, the terminal device may compare the next cell after the cell with all blacklisted cells in the specific cell set, and repeat the above determination step.
Exemplarily, it is assumed that the cells searched by the terminal device are sorted according to the signal strength, and are cell a, cell B, cell C, cell D, and cell E in turn; and the blacklist includes cell a and cell F. The terminal device may compare the cell a with all cells in the blacklist, and the terminal device may exclude the cell a because the cell a belongs to the blacklist. Then, the terminal device may compare the cell B with all cells in the blacklist, and since the cell B does not belong to the blacklist, the terminal device may determine the cell B as the cell to camp on soon.
In a second possible implementation manner, after the terminal device searches for at least two cells, the terminal device may sort the at least two cells according to signal strength, and exclude blacklisted cells belonging to a specific cell set in the at least two cells. Then, the terminal device may determine a cell with the strongest signal strength among cells other than the excluded cell of the at least two cells as a cell to camp on, i.e., a camping cell.
Exemplarily, it is assumed that the cells searched by the terminal device are sorted according to the signal strength, and are cell a, cell B, cell C, cell D, and cell E in turn; and the blacklist includes cell a and cell F. The terminal device may compare the searched 5 cells with all the cells in the blacklist and exclude cell a in the blacklist. Then, the terminal device determines the cell B with the strongest signal strength among the cell B, the cell C, the cell D, and the cell E as the cell to be camped on.
In a third possible implementation manner, after the terminal device searches for at least two cells, the terminal device may exclude blacklisted cells belonging to a specific cell set from the at least two cells. Then, the terminal device may rank the cells of the at least two cells except the excluded cell according to the signal strength, and determine the cell with the strongest signal strength among the cells of the at least two cells except the excluded cell as the cell to camp on, i.e., the camping cell.
For example, it is assumed that the cells searched by the terminal device are cell a, cell B, cell C, cell D, and cell E, and the blacklist includes cell a and cell F. The terminal device may compare the searched 5 cells with all the cells in the blacklist and exclude cell a in the blacklist. Then, the terminal device may sort the cell B, the cell C, the cell D, and the cell E according to the signal strength, and determine the cell B with the strongest signal strength among the cell B, the cell C, the cell D, and the cell E as the cell to be camped on.
It should be noted that, all of the three possible implementations described above are to rank the cells according to their signal strengths, and do not form any limitation on the embodiments of the present invention. It can be understood that, in actual implementation, the terminal device may also rank the cells in other manners, which may be specifically determined according to actual usage requirements.
Optionally, the method for determining a cell provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include: under the condition that a response message which allows CSFB and is sent by network equipment is received within a preset time length, terminal equipment initiates a network searching request which does not carry the first identifier; acquiring at least one cell according to the network searching request; and determining one cell except the blacklisted cell in the at least one cell as the resident cell.
For example, the preset time duration is still set to be 4 seconds specified by the protocol. When the timing duration of the timer T3417ext reaches 4 seconds, if the terminal device receives a response message that allows CSFB sent by the network device, the NAS layer of the terminal device may trigger the GRR layer of the terminal device to perform network search through a network search request that does not carry the first identifier. Thus, the GRR layer may search for at least one first cell according to the network search request, and directly determine a cell of the at least one first cell except for the cells in the blacklist as a camped cell.
For example, the preset time duration is still set to be 4 seconds specified by the protocol. When the timing duration of the timer T3417ext reaches 4 seconds, if the terminal device does not receive a response message allowing CSFB sent by the network device, the NAS layer of the terminal device may trigger the GRR layer of the terminal device to perform network search through the network search request carrying the first identifier. Thus, the GRR layer may search for at least one second cell according to the network search request, and directly determine a cell other than the blacklisted cells in the at least one second cell as a camped cell.
It should be noted that the first cell and the second cell may be the same cell or different cells, and may be determined specifically according to actual use requirements.
The embodiment of the invention provides a cell determining method, because when a called terminal device receives a paging message sent by a network device, if the called terminal device does not receive a CSFB response message which is allowed to be sent by the network device within a preset time length, the called terminal device can initiate a network searching request carrying an identifier for excluding a blacklisted cell, when a resident cell is determined, the called terminal device can exclude the blacklisted cell according to the identifier, thereby avoiding the called terminal device from residing in the blacklisted cell. Therefore, the embodiment of the invention can improve the call completing rate of the called terminal equipment.
Optionally, with reference to fig. 2, as shown in fig. 3, before the step S101, the method for determining a cell according to the embodiment of the present invention may further include the step S104 described below.
And S104, the terminal equipment sends a request message carrying the second identifier to the network equipment and starts timing.
The second identifier may be used to request a CSFB, that is, to indicate that the terminal device subsequently has an incoming call.
Optionally, the REQUEST message may be an EXTENDED SERVICE REQUEST message, and the second identifier may be a mobile terminal circuit switched fallback.
Optionally, the start timing is specifically a timer of the terminal device, for example, the timer may be a timer T3417 ext.
Alternatively, S104 may be specifically implemented by S104A described below.
And S104A, under the condition that the third identifier is matched with the fourth identifier stored in the terminal equipment, the terminal equipment sends a request message carrying the second identifier to the network equipment, and starts timing.
The third identifier may be used to indicate a called device, and the fourth identifier may be used to indicate a terminal device.
Optionally, the third identifier may be a temporary mobile subscriber identifier (M-TMSI).
Optionally, the third identifier may be obtained from a paging message received by the terminal device, that is, the third identifier may be carried in the paging message received by the terminal device.
Optionally, the fourth identifier may be an identifier allocated by the network device to the terminal device after the terminal device registers in the network corresponding to the first cell, for example, the identifier may be M-TMSI.
On one hand, the cell determining method provided by the embodiment of the invention enables the network device to prepare for subsequent call access of the terminal device by sending the request message carrying call drop back to the network device by the terminal device, so that the terminal device can perform CSFB; on the other hand, the terminal device can initiate a network searching request carrying the first identifier when the terminal device does not receive the CSFB allowed response message sent by the network device within the preset time period by timing, so that the terminal device can be prevented from residing in the blacklisted cell.
Optionally, when the above S104 is specifically implemented by the following S104A, as shown in fig. 4 in combination with fig. 3, before the above S104A, the method for determining a cell provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include the following S105.
And S105, under the condition that the terminal equipment resides in the first cell, the terminal equipment receives the paging message which is sent by the network equipment and carries the third identifier.
It should be noted that the first cell may be a cell where the terminal device currently resides, that is, a cell where the terminal device resides before the CSFB.
In addition, the network device in S105 and the network device in S101 may be the same device, that is, the network device of the first cell where the terminal device currently resides.
Optionally, the method for determining a cell provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include: in case the third identity does not match the fourth identity stored in the terminal device, the terminal device ignores the paging message.
For example, in a case where the terminal device is camped on the first cell, i.e., in a standby state, the terminal device may receive a paging message carrying an M-TMSI for indicating a called device, which is sent by a base station of the first cell. When the M-TMSI in the paging message is consistent with the M-TMSI stored in the terminal device, the terminal device may consider that the paging message is sent to the local device, so that the terminal device may send a request message carrying a second identifier to the network device and start timing; otherwise, the terminal device may consider that the paging message is not sent to the terminal device, and may ignore the paging message.
In the cell determining method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the network device sends the paging message carrying the third identifier to the terminal device, so that the terminal device determines whether the paging message is sent to the local device by determining whether the third identifier is consistent with the fourth identifier stored in the terminal device, and further determines whether the terminal device is a called terminal device.
Optionally, with reference to fig. 2, as shown in fig. 5, after S103, the method for determining a cell according to the embodiment of the present invention may further include S106 described below.
And S106, the terminal equipment falls back to the second network from the first network.
The first network may be a network corresponding to a first cell, and the second network may be a network corresponding to a camped cell determined by the terminal device.
Optionally, the first network may be an mth generation wireless communication network, M is an integer greater than or equal to 4, and the first network may belong to a communication network that cancels a circuit domain; the second network may be an nth generation wireless communication network, N being 2 or 3, and may belong to a communication network in which a circuit domain exists.
For example, assume that the network corresponding to the first cell in which the terminal device currently camps is a 4G network. After the terminal device determines that the network corresponding to the resident cell is the GSM network, the terminal device may fall back to the GSM network from the 4G network, that is, the terminal device falls back to the GSM network and resides in the GSM cell.
Optionally, after the terminal device falls back from the first network to the second network, the terminal device may connect to the call.
According to the cell determining method provided by the embodiment of the invention, when the terminal equipment falls back to the second network from the first network, namely, after the terminal equipment is accessed to the resident cell, the terminal equipment can be communicated, so that a called user of the terminal equipment can be communicated with a calling user.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the cell determination methods shown in the above drawings are all exemplarily described by referring to one drawing in the embodiment of the present invention. In specific implementation, the cell determination method shown in each of the above figures may also be implemented in combination with any other combinable figures shown in the above embodiments, and details are not described here again.
As shown in fig. 6, an embodiment of the present invention provides a terminal device 600. The terminal device may comprise a processing module 601, an obtaining module 602 and a determining module 603. The processing module 601 may be configured to initiate a network searching request carrying the first identifier when a CSFB permission response message sent by the network device is not received within a preset time. The obtaining module 602 may be configured to obtain at least one cell according to the network searching request initiated by the processing module 601. The determining module 603 may be configured to determine, as the camped cell, one of the at least one cell acquired by the acquiring module 602 except for the blacklisted cell. Wherein the first identity may be used to indicate exclusion of blacklisted cells when selecting the camped cell.
Optionally, with reference to fig. 6, as shown in fig. 7, the terminal device provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include a sending module 604. A sending module 604, configured to send a request message carrying a second identifier to the network device before the processing module 601 initiates a network searching request carrying the first identifier. The processing module 601 is configured to start timing after the sending module 604 sends the request message carrying the second identifier to the network device. Wherein the second identity is used to request the CSFB.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the starting time of starting timing may be a time when the request message carrying the second identifier is sent to the network device, or may be a next adjacent time when the request message carrying the second identifier is sent to the network device.
Optionally, with reference to fig. 7, as shown in fig. 8, the terminal device provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include a receiving module 605. The receiving module 605 may be configured to receive, when the terminal device is camped in the first cell, a paging message that is sent by the network device and carries the third identifier before the sending module 604 sends the request message carrying the second identifier to the network device.
