Terms involved in the embodiments of the present invention are explained as follows.
1) The uplink subframe refers to a subframe for transmitting an uplink signal, and includes a subframe only for transmitting the uplink signal and a special subframe. For example, referring to table 1, table 1 is a TDD configuration table of an existing TDD LTE system. As shown in table 1, TDD configuration 2 is an uplink subframe with subframe numbers 1, 2, 6, and 7 according to the embodiment of the present invention.

2) And uplink interference levels of M PRBs (physical resource blocks) occupied by the narrow-band bandwidth under the cell.
For example, the narrow band has a bandwidth of 20M, the frequency range of the bandwidth is 1880-1900kHz, such as 100PRB under the frequency range of the bandwidth. 100 PRBs each correspond to an uplink interference level.
3) The uplink average interference level is an average value of uplink interference levels of the M physical resource blocks PRB.
For example, each PRB of 100 PRBs corresponds to an interference level, and the uplink average interference level is an average value of the interference levels of 100 PRBs.
4) And receiving the uplink interference power of the M PRBs under each subframe in N uplink subframes of the cell.
For example, the narrow-band bandwidth is 20M, the frequency range of the bandwidth is 1880-1900kHz, for example, the frequency range of the bandwidth includes 100PRB, and the adopted subframe structure is TDD configuration 2 shown in table 1, that is, the uplink subframe includes subframe 1, subframe 2, subframe 6 and subframe 7. In subframe 1, each PRB of 100 PRBs corresponds to one received interference power, in subframe 2, each PRB of 100 PRBs corresponds to one received interference power, in subframe 6, each PRB of 100 PRBs corresponds to one uplink received interference power, and in subframe 7, each PRB of 100 PRBs corresponds to one uplink received interference power.
5) And averaging the uplink received interference power of the single subframe.

In subframe 1, each PRB of 100 PRBs corresponds to one received interference power, in subframe 2, each PRB of 100 PRBs corresponds to one received interference power, in subframe 6, each PRB of 100 PRBs corresponds to one uplink received interference power, and in subframe 7, each PRB of 100 PRBs corresponds to one uplink received interference power. The single subframe uplink received interference power average value is an average value of received interference power of 100 PRBs in subframe 1, or an average value of received interference power of 100 PRBs in subframe 2, or an average value of received interference power of 100 PRBs in subframe 6, or an average value of received interference power of 100 PRBs in subframe 7.
6) And the average value of the uplink received interference power.
In subframe 1, each PRB of 100 PRBs corresponds to one received interference power in subframe 2, each PRB of 100 PRBs corresponds to one uplink received interference power in subframe 6, each PRB of 100 PRBs corresponds to one uplink received interference power in subframe 7, which includes 400 received interference powers in total, and then the uplink received interference power average value refers to an average value of the 400 received interference powers. Or the average value of the uplink received interference power of 4 single subframes can be averaged to obtain the average value of the uplink received interference power.
The plurality of the present invention means two or more. "and/or" describes the association relationship of the associated objects, meaning that there may be three relationships, e.g., a and/or B, which may mean: a exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone. The character "/" generally indicates that the former and latter associated objects are in an "or" relationship. In addition, it should be understood that although the terms first, second, etc. may be used to describe various objects (such as uplink interference level, uplink received interference power, etc.) in the embodiments of the present invention, these data packets should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish objects from each other.
The embodiment of the invention provides a method and a device for detecting narrowband signal interference, which are used for determining whether narrowband interference exists in a cell or not through an uplink average interference level, a single subframe uplink received interference power average value and an uplink received interference power average value, so that manual participation is not needed, the detection efficiency is improved, and the detection time is shortened. 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.
Referring to fig. 2, a schematic flow chart of a method for detecting narrowband signal interference according to an embodiment of the present invention is provided. The method comprises the following steps:
s201, an access network device obtains first interference measurement data of a cell, where the first interference measurement data includes first uplink interference levels of M PRBs occupied by a narrowband bandwidth under the cell and first uplink received interference powers of the M PRBs under each of N uplink subframes of the cell.
Wherein M and N are both positive integers.
S202, the access network equipment determines an average value of first uplink interference levels of the M physical resource blocks PRB to obtain a first uplink average interference level, and determines an average value of first uplink received interference powers of the M PRBs under each subframe to obtain an average value of first single subframe uplink received interference powers corresponding to the N subframes respectively.
S203, the access network equipment determines the average value of the uplink received interference power average values of the first single sub-frames corresponding to the N sub-frames respectively to obtain the first uplink received interference power average value.
S204, when the access network equipment determines that the first uplink average interference level is smaller than a first threshold value, the first uplink received interference power average value is smaller than a second threshold value, and the first single subframe uplink received interference power average value corresponding to at least one subframe in the N subframes is larger than a third threshold value, the access network equipment determines that the cell has narrowband signal interference.
For example, the first threshold, the second threshold and the third threshold may be equal to the external maximum narrowband signal interference value that the cell can bear. For example, the first threshold and the second and third thresholds are equal to-105 dB.
In an optional implementation manner, when the access network device determines, according to the first interference measurement data, that any one of the following conditions, i.e., the first condition, the second condition, and the third condition, is not satisfied, the access network device determines that the cell does not have narrowband signal interference:
the first condition is as follows: the uplink average interference level is less than a first threshold.
And a second condition: and the average value of the uplink received interference power is smaller than a second threshold value.
And (3) carrying out a third condition: and the average value of the uplink received interference power of at least one single subframe is larger than a third threshold value.
In an optional implementation manner, after the access network device determines that the cell has narrowband signal interference, a device-side factor checking link is started. Specifically, after the access network device determines that the cell has narrowband signal interference, the access network device prohibits the cell from transmitting downlink signals, and then obtains second interference measurement data of the cell, where the second interference measurement data includes second uplink interference levels of M physical resource blocks PRB occupied by a narrowband bandwidth under the cell and second uplink received interference powers of the M PRBs under each of N uplink subframes of the cell, and M and N are positive integers;
the access network equipment determines the average value of the second uplink interference levels of the M physical resource blocks PRB to obtain a second uplink average interference level, and determines the average value of the second uplink received interference power of the M PRBs under each subframe to obtain the average value of the second single subframe uplink received interference power corresponding to the N subframes respectively;
the access network equipment determines the average value of the uplink received interference power average values of second single sub-frames corresponding to the N sub-frames respectively to obtain a second uplink received interference power average value;
and the access network equipment determines that an interference source generating narrowband signal interference is an external interference source when the access network equipment determines that the second uplink average interference level is smaller than the first threshold, the second uplink received interference power average value is smaller than the second threshold, and the second single subframe uplink received interference power average value corresponding to at least one subframe in the N subframes is larger than a third threshold.
In an optional implementation manner, when the access network device determines, according to the second interference measurement data, that any one of the first condition, the second condition, and the third condition is not satisfied, the access network device determines that the cause of narrowband signal interference generated by the cell is inside the device.
In an alternative implementation manner, in the embodiment of the present invention, whether the narrowband signal interference source is a fixed interference source may be determined in any manner.
The first mode is as follows: after the access network equipment determines that the cell has narrowband signal interference, the access network equipment determines the maximum value of first uplink received interference power of the M PRBs under each subframe in N uplink subframes of the cell, wherein the maximum value of the first uplink received interference power corresponds to the first PRB under the first subframe; the access network equipment performs frequency shift processing on the narrowband bandwidth to acquire third uplink received interference power of the M PRBs under each subframe in N uplink subframes of the cell; the access network equipment acquires the maximum value in the third uplink received interference power of the M PRBs under each subframe in N uplink subframes of the cell; and when the maximum value in the third uplink received interference power is determined to correspond to the first PRB under the first subframe, determining the narrowband interference source as a fixed interference source.
In a second manner, after the access network device determines that an interference source generating narrowband signal interference is an external interference source, the access network device determines a maximum value of second uplink received interference powers of the M PRBs in each of N uplink subframes of the cell, where the maximum value of the second uplink received interference powers corresponds to a second PRB in a second subframe; the access network equipment performs frequency shift processing on the narrowband bandwidth to acquire third uplink received interference power of the M PRBs under each subframe in N uplink subframes of the cell; the access network equipment determines the maximum value of the third uplink received interference power of the M PRBs under each subframe in N uplink subframes of the cell; and when the maximum value in the third uplink received interference power is determined to correspond to the second PRB under the second subframe, determining the narrowband interference source as a fixed interference source.
As an example, the shifting the narrow-band bandwidth refers to shifting the center frequency of the narrow-band bandwidth, for example, the narrow-band bandwidth is 1900kHz, and after shifting the frequency to the right by 5kHz, that is, after increasing by 5Hz, the narrow-band bandwidth is updated to 1905 kHz.
It should be noted that, for the execution sequence of performing the frequency shift processing and prohibiting the cell from transmitting the downlink signal, the embodiment of the present invention is not limited specifically, and the operation of prohibiting the cell from transmitting the downlink signal may be performed first, and after determining whether the cell belongs to the external interference source, the frequency shift processing operation is performed. Certainly, the frequency shift processing operation may also be performed first, and after determining whether the cell belongs to a fixed interference source, the cell is prohibited from transmitting the downlink signal.
In an optional implementation manner, when it is determined that the narrowband signal interference source is a fixed interference source and is an external interference source, an alarm indication is sent to a network manager, where the alarm indication is used to indicate that the external fixed interference source generates narrowband signal interference to the access network device. The network manager can thus prompt the optimizer to sweep to determine where the external fixed interference source is located.
The following describes an embodiment of the present invention in detail with reference to an application scenario, and the first threshold, the second threshold, and the third threshold are all equal to-105 dB.
Referring to fig. 3, a schematic flow chart of a method for detecting narrowband signal interference according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.

And S302, obtaining an uplink average interference level, a single subframe uplink received interference power average value and an uplink received interference power average value according to the interference measurement data. Taking 4 uplink subframes as an example, the uplink received interference power of a single subframe corresponding to subframe 1, subframe 2, subframe 6 and subframe 7 is taken as an example.
And S303, determining whether the uplink average interference level and the uplink received interference power average value are both less than-105 dB, and the uplink received interference power average value of at least one single subframe in 4 subframes is greater than-105 dB, if so, executing S304, and if not, executing S305.
S304, determining that the cell has the narrowband interference signal, executing an external interference source judgment process, and executing S306.
S305, ending the narrowband signal interference determination.
The following description will be made by taking an example of first performing the determination of whether the interference source is an external interference source and then performing the determination of whether the interference source is a fixed interference source.
