Description

Determination method, device and readable storage medium

Technical Field

The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a determination method, a device, and a readable storage medium.

Background

With the development of mobile communication networks, the energy consumption of wireless networks is getting larger and larger, and the demands of operators on energy conservation and consumption reduction are also more urgent. In the energy consumption composition of the wireless network, the energy consumption ratio of the base station equipment is the highest, the base station energy saving is the basis of the wireless network energy saving, and the base station energy saving technology is also a research hotspot in the industry.

At present, operators mainly adopt a cell shutdown technology to realize energy conservation of a base station, and the cell shutdown technology realizes energy conservation by shutting down cells with total traffic volume lower than a preset shutdown threshold. The single operator cell can realize the energy saving of the base station by adopting the existing cell switching-off technology, and the multi-operator shared cell can also realize the energy saving of the base station by adopting the existing cell switching-off technology, but has the problem that the service performance requirements of different operators under the shared cell can not be met at the same time, thereby greatly influencing the service performance and the user experience of user equipment.

Disclosure of Invention

The invention provides a determining method, a determining device and a readable storage medium, which are used for solving the problem that the service performance of different operators in a shared cell cannot be simultaneously met in the conventional cell switching-off method. In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:

And then, determining a compensation gain parameter of each to-be-switched-off shared cell in the co-established shared network area. And finally, determining the shared cells which can be switched off in the shared network region according to the energy-saving parameter and the compensation gain parameter of each shared cell to be switched off in the shared network region.

The existing cell switching-off method only determines a switchable cell according to the traffic of the cell, for a co-building sharing scene, different operators share the same cell, the traffic of the sharing cell comes from user equipment of a plurality of different operators, and the situation that the total traffic of the cell is lower than a switching-off threshold but the traffic of the user equipment of one operator is higher may exist, so the existing cell switching-off method has the problem that the service performance requirements of different operators in the sharing cell cannot be met at the same time. In addition, the existing cell switching-off method only considers the cell traffic, does not distinguish the performance difference between the user equipment type and different cells, and causes the fluctuation of the user service performance after the cell is switched off, thereby influencing the user experience. The determining method provided by the invention determines the shared cell which can be switched off from the co-established shared network area according to the energy-saving parameter and the compensation gain parameter of the shared cell. Therefore, the situation is avoided, the problem that the service performance requirements of different operators under a shared cell cannot be met simultaneously in the conventional cell switching-off method is solved, the service performance requirements of different types of user equipment are met simultaneously, and the consistency of the service performance before and after the cell switching-off is realized.

Specifically, when determining the shared cell capable of being switched off, the method not only considers the total traffic of the cell, but also considers the traffic of various user equipment supporting different network identifiers, so that the cell switching-off strategy is matched with the traffic distribution condition of the shared cell, and the cell switching-off strategy is more accurate. Meanwhile, when the shared cell which can be switched off is determined, the method defines a sharing weight and a compensation gain parameter, matches the compensation gain of the compensation cell with the sharing weight of various user equipment in the shared cell, matches the corresponding compensation cell for the user equipment with various different performance requirements, and further enables the user equipment with different types to be migrated to the compensation cell meeting the performance requirements of the user equipment when the cell is switched off, thereby realizing the consistency of service performance before and after the cell is switched off.

Rather, use of the word "exemplary" or "such as" is intended to present concepts related in a concrete fashion.

A new mode of co-establishing a shared wireless network by multiple operators is generated at present, and the cost of establishing and maintaining a mobile network by the operators can be reduced in the mode. As shown in fig. 1, in the co-establishment sharing scenario, multiple operators share the same network device (e.g., a base station), access to respective independent core networks (core network devices) through a backhaul network, and a shared cell provides network services for users of the operators at the same time.

In the co-established shared network area, the shared cell may simultaneously support multiple operator networks and broadcast multiple network identities (e.g., public Land Mobile Networks (PLMNs)) via system messages. For example, the shared cell supports PLMN identities for multiple operators and broadcasts multiple PLMN identities via system messages. The PLMN identifier is used to distinguish different operators and is composed of a mobile equipment international code (MCC) and a mobile equipment network code (MNC).

In the co-established shared network region, the user equipment belonging to different operators supports different network identifiers, and the network identifiers supported by the user equipment can be preset on the user equipment side.

Within the coverage area of the shared cell, the user equipment supporting multiple network identifications (e.g., PLMN identifications) indicated by the system message can access the shared cell and perform service transmission. The transmission resources of the shared cell are shared between user equipments supporting different network identities (PLMN identities).

The existing cell switching-off technology only considers the scene that a cell is accessed to a single operator user (namely, a single operator cell), and the cell switching-off is mainly realized based on the total traffic volume of the cell. Namely, the total traffic of the cell is lower than the preset turn-off threshold, the cell is turned off. This switch-off technique is unproblematic for single operator cells. But is less suitable for multi-operator cells. On one hand, a shared cell (shared cell for short) of multiple operators may appear, but the traffic of a certain shared operator is more, but the total traffic is lower than a preset turn-off threshold, and then turning off the shared cell affects the service experience of the network user of the operator. On the other hand, if there is no cell supporting a network identifier (PLMN identifier) of an operator in the coverage area of the shared cell, switching off the shared cell in this case may prevent the operator in the coverage area of the shared cell from migrating to the cell supporting the corresponding PLMN identifier, and thus from accessing the network. In addition, the existing cell switching-off method only considers the cell traffic, does not distinguish the performance difference between the user equipment type and different cells, and causes the fluctuation of the user service performance after the cell is switched off, thereby influencing the user experience. In summary, the existing cell shutdown method has a problem that service performance of user equipment of different operators in a shared cell cannot be satisfied at the same time.

The embodiment of the invention provides a determining method, which is used for solving the problem that the service performance of different operators in a shared cell cannot be met simultaneously in the conventional cell switching-off method.

The following describes a determination method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, with reference to the communication system shown in fig. 2 and the determination device 100 shown in fig. 3.

As shown in fig. 4, the determining method provided in the embodiment of the present invention includes:

s401, the determining device 100 determines energy saving parameters of each to-be-switched-off shared cell in the co-established shared network area.

In this embodiment of the present invention, the energy saving parameter may include the first traffic, the second traffic, the total traffic, the sharing weight of the first user equipment, and the sharing weight of the second user equipment. The first traffic is the sum of the traffic of the first user equipment. The second traffic is the sum of the traffic of the second user equipment. The total traffic is a sum of the first traffic and the second traffic. The first user equipment is the user equipment which is accessed to the shared cell and the currently selected network identification is the first network identification. The second user equipment is the user equipment which is accessed to the shared cell and the currently selected network identification is the second network identification.

For example, the co-established shared network area supports a first network identity (first PLMN identity) and a second network identity (second PLMN identity). The first user equipment is the user equipment which is accessed to the shared cell and the currently selected network identifier is the first PLMN identifier. The second user equipment is the user equipment which is accessed to the shared cell and the currently selected network identifier is the second PLMN identifier. The first traffic is the sum of the traffic of all the currently selected user equipments identified by the first PLMN identity in the shared cell. The second traffic is the sum of the traffic of all the currently selected user equipments identified by the second PLMN identity in the shared cell. The total traffic is a sum of the first traffic and the second traffic. If the first traffic is a and the second traffic is B, the total traffic is a + B.

In a possible implementation manner, the determining device 100 first determines the first traffic of each to-be-turned-off shared cell in the co-established shared network area. And then determining the second traffic of each shared cell to be turned off in the area of the co-established shared network. And then determining the total traffic of each to-be-switched off shared cell in the co-established shared network area. And then determining the sharing weight of the first user equipment in each to-be-switched-off sharing cell in the co-established sharing network area. And finally, determining the sharing weight of the second user equipment in each to-be-switched off sharing cell in the co-established sharing network area.

In a possible implementation manner, the determination device 100 sends a first message to a to-be-turned-off shared cell in the co-established shared network area to acquire an energy saving parameter of the to-be-turned-off shared cell. Specifically, after receiving the first message, the shared cell to be turned off counts the energy saving parameters according to the energy saving parameter reporting period, and sends the energy saving parameters to the determination device 100. The first message may carry information such as an identifier of the shared cell to be turned off, an energy saving parameter request indicator bit, and an energy saving parameter reporting period. The energy-saving parameter request indicating bit is used for indicating the shared cell receiving the first message to start counting according to the parameter reporting period and reporting the energy-saving parameter value.

In a possible implementation manner, when the ue accesses the shared cell, the information of a network identifier (PLMN identifier) currently selected by the ue is reported. The user equipment and other devices may determine the PLMN identifier supported by the user equipment according to the operator information preset on the user equipment side and signed up by the user. The user equipment can support a plurality of PLMN identifications, and when the user equipment accesses a cell (shared cell), a certain PLMN identification is selected according to a rule preset by the user equipment side. After the user equipment accesses the cell, the user equipment reports the currently selected PLMN identification to the network equipment (base station) to which the access cell belongs. The network device to which the shared cell belongs may distinguish all the user equipments accessing the shared cell into the first user equipment and the second user equipment based on the PLMN identity currently selected by the user equipment.

In a possible implementation manner, the network device to which the shared cell belongs may first obtain the service performance priority parameter of each user equipment in the shared cell through message interaction with the core network device, and then determine the sharing weight of the first user equipment and the sharing weight of the second user equipment based on the priority parameter of each network identifier (PLMN identifier) supported by the shared cell and the service performance priority parameter of each user equipment in the shared cell.

Specifically, the sharing weight of each ue is determined by parameters such as a network identifier (PLMN identifier) priority supported by each ue, and a service performance priority of each ue. For example, the sharing weight of the user equipment may be determined according to an average sum or weighted sum of the PLMN levels supported by the user equipment and the service performance priority of the user equipment. The higher the PLMN identification priority of the user equipment and the service performance priority of the user equipment, the larger the sharing weight value. The sharing weight of the first user equipment may be a weighted sum of parameters such as PLMN identity priority supported by the first user equipment, service performance priority of the first user equipment, and the like. The sharing weight of the second user equipment may be a weighted sum of parameters such as PLMN identifier priority supported by the second user equipment and service performance priority of the second user equipment.

In one possible implementation, the network identity (PLMN identity) priority may be preset on the network equipment (base station) side to which the shared cell belongs. The PLMN identification priority is used for reflecting the priority of user equipment supporting different PLMN identifications in a shared cell in the aspects of cell access and resource scheduling. The shared cell preferentially schedules resources for the user equipment supporting the high-priority PLMN identification and preferentially accesses the user equipment supporting the higher-priority PLMN identification. The value of the PLMN identification priority may be set to an integer greater than 0, and the higher the priority, the larger the value. For example, if the PLMN identifier priority supported by the first user equipment is 1 and the PLMN identifier priority supported by the second user equipment is 2, the second user equipment may preferentially access the shared cell and preferentially allocate transmission resources.

The service performance priority of the first user equipment may be: and in the shared cell, the average value or weighted average value of the service performance priority of all the first user equipment. The service performance priority of the second user equipment may be: and in the shared cell, the average value or the weighted average value of the service performance priority of all the second user equipment.

The first user equipment or the second user equipment comprises a plurality of user equipment, wherein the service performance priority of each user equipment reflects the differentiated service performance requirements of each user equipment and comprises indexes such as the transmission rate, the transmission delay, the block error rate and the establishment delay of the voice service of the data service; the higher the priority of the service performance of the user equipment is, the higher the transmission rate of the data service is required to be, the lower the transmission delay is, the lower the block error rate is, and the lower the establishment delay of the voice service is required to be.

The service performance priority of the user equipment can be set to be an integer greater than 0, and the larger the numerical value is, the higher the corresponding priority is.

For example, the service performance priority of the user equipment =1, and the service performance requirement of the corresponding user equipment may be: the data transmission rate is greater than 30 megabits per second (Mbps), the data transmission delay is less than 10 milliseconds (ms), the block error rate is less than 0.01%, and the voice service establishment delay is less than 20ms.

For another example, the service performance priority =2 of the user equipment, and the service performance requirement of the corresponding user equipment may be: the data transmission rate is greater than 10Mbps, the data transmission delay is less than 20ms, the block error rate is less than 0.1%, and the voice service establishment delay is less than 50ms.

In a possible implementation manner, the service performance priority parameter of each user equipment may be preset on the core network side, the service performance of the user equipment may be determined based on a subscription attribute of the user equipment, and the subscription attribute of the user may be set based on an operator policy. For example, set to different grades of gold, silver, bronze, or determined based on quality of service (QoS) grades. Specifically, if the attribute of the subscriber is gold, silver, or bronze, the service performance priority of the subscriber device is set to 1, 2, or 3, respectively.

It should be noted that the determination method provided in the embodiment of the present invention provides a shared weight parameter, where the shared weight parameter may reflect priorities of different PLMN identifiers in a shared cell and differentiated service performance requirements of different user equipments. And determining the shared cell to be switched off based on the shared weight parameter, and considering different PLMN identifications and different service requirements of user equipment differentiation while switching off the cell.

S402, determining the compensation gain parameter of each to-be-switched off shared cell in the co-established shared network area by the determining device 100.

In this embodiment of the present invention, the compensation gain parameter may include a compensation gain of a first compensation cell of the shared cell to be turned off and a compensation gain of a second compensation cell of the shared cell to be turned off, where the first compensation cell is a cell that supports the first network identifier and has the same coverage area as the shared cell, and the second compensation cell is a cell that supports the second network identifier and has the same coverage area as the shared cell.

In one possible implementation manner, the determining device 100 first determines the compensation gain of the first compensation cell of each to-be-turned-off shared cell in the area of the co-established shared network. And then determining the compensation gain of a second compensation cell of each sharing cell to be turned off in the area of the co-established sharing network.

The compensation gain is used for reflecting the service performance difference between the compensation cell and the shared cell. The larger the compensation gain value is, the better the service performance of the compensation cell relative to the sharing cell is. For example, the backoff gain =1, which indicates that the service performance of the backoff cell and the shared cell is approximately the same; the compensation gain is less than 1, which means that the service performance of the compensation cell is lower than that of the sharing cell; the compensation gain is >1, which means that the service performance of the compensation cell is higher than that of the shared cell.

In one possible implementation, the determining device 100 may determine the compensation gain of the compensation cell according to a preset rule (preset compensation gain determination rule). The preset rule may be:

and under the condition that the shared cell supports the voice service and the compensation cell of the shared cell does not support the voice service, determining the compensation gain of the compensation cell of the shared cell as a target value. Wherein the target value is less than or equal to 0. For example, the target value is 0.

For example, in a case where the shared cell to be turned off supports voice service and the first compensating cell of the shared cell to be turned off does not support voice service, it is determined that the compensation gain of the first compensating cell of the shared cell to be turned off is 0 (target value).

For another example, in a case where the shared cell to be turned off supports voice service and the second compensating cell of the shared cell to be turned off does not support voice service, it is determined that the compensation gain of the second compensating cell of the shared cell to be turned off is 0 (target value).

In the case that the shared cell does not support the voice service, determining the compensation gain of the compensation cell of the shared cell as (data service performance parameter of the compensation cell of the shared cell/data service performance parameter of the shared cell).

The situation that the shared cell does not support the voice service includes: the situation that the shared cell does not support voice service and the compensating cell of the shared cell supports voice service and the situation that the shared cell does not support voice service and the compensating cell of the shared cell does not support voice service.

For example, when the shared cell to be turned off does not support voice service and the second compensating cell of the shared cell to be turned off supports voice service, the compensation gain of the second compensating cell of the shared cell to be turned off is determined to be (data service performance parameter of the second compensating cell of the shared cell to be turned off/data service performance parameter of the shared cell to be turned off).

For another example, in a case that the shared cell to be turned off does not support voice service and the first compensating cell of the shared cell to be turned off supports voice service, the compensation gain of the first compensating cell of the shared cell to be turned off is determined as (first compensating cell data service performance parameter of the shared cell to be turned off/data service performance parameter of the shared cell to be turned off).

When the shared cell supports voice service and the compensation cell of the shared cell supports voice service, determining the compensation gain of the compensation cell of the shared cell as (voice service performance parameter of the shared cell/voice service performance parameter of the compensation cell of the shared cell) × (data service performance parameter of the compensation cell/data service performance parameter of the shared cell).

For example, in a case where the to-be-turned-off shared cell supports voice service and the first compensating cell of the to-be-turned-off shared cell supports voice service, the compensation gain of the first compensating cell of the to-be-turned-off shared cell is determined to be (voice service performance parameter of the to-be-turned-off shared cell/voice service performance parameter of the first compensating cell of the to-be-turned-off shared cell) × (data service performance parameter of the first compensating cell of the to-be-turned-off shared cell/data service performance parameter of the to-be-turned-off shared cell).

For another example, in a case that the shared cell to be turned off supports voice traffic and the second compensating cell to be turned off supports voice traffic, the compensating gain of the second compensating cell to be turned off is determined to be (voice traffic performance parameter of the shared cell to be turned off/voice traffic performance parameter of the second compensating cell to be turned off) x (data traffic performance parameter of the second compensating cell to be turned off/data traffic performance parameter of the shared cell to be turned off).

In the embodiment of the invention, the voice service performance parameter is used for reflecting the performance of the voice service in the cell. A combination of one or more of the performance indicators, such as delay or voice quality, may be established for the average of all voice traffic in the cell over a statistical period. The data service performance parameter is used for reflecting the transmission performance of the data service in the cell. The transmission rate may be one or a combination of more of the average transmission rate, the average transmission delay, the transmission block error rate, and the like of all data services of the cell in the statistical period. The service type parameter supported by the cell can be preset at the base station side to which the cell belongs. Alternatively, the service type parameter =1 may be used to indicate that the cell supports voice service. The traffic type parameter =0, indicating that the cell does not support voice traffic.

It can be understood that, the determining method provided in the embodiment of the present invention provides a compensation gain parameter, which may reflect the service performance difference between the compensation cell and the shared cell. The shared cell capable of being switched off is determined based on the compensation gain parameter, so that the consistency of the service performance of the user equipment before and after the shared cell is switched off can be realized, and the problems of voice call drop or service performance reduction and the like caused by the fact that the user equipment is transferred from the shared cell to the compensation cell are avoided.

S403, the determining device 100 determines the turn-off capable shared cell in the co-established shared network region according to the energy saving parameter and the compensation gain parameter of each to-be-turned-off shared cell in the co-established shared network region.

In a possible implementation manner, the determining device 100 determines, according to the energy saving parameter and the compensation gain parameter of each to-be-turned-off shared cell in the co-established shared network area, a turn-off shared cell in the co-established shared network area, including:

the determining device 100 determines that the shared cell to be turned off is the shared cell that can be turned off when the total traffic of the shared cell to be turned off is lower than the first threshold, the first traffic is lower than the second threshold, and the second traffic is lower than the third threshold.

When the total traffic of the shared cell to be turned off is lower than the first threshold, the first traffic is lower than the second threshold, and the second traffic is not lower than the third threshold, the determining device 100 determines the shared cell to be turned off according to the sharing weight and the compensation gain parameter of the second user equipment in the shared cell to be turned off.

Specifically, the determining, according to the sharing weight and the compensation gain parameter of the second user equipment in the shared cell to be turned off, the shared cell that can be turned off includes:

determining, by the device 100, that the shared cell to be turned off is the shared cell that can be turned off when the interval in which the sharing weight of the second user equipment in the shared cell to be turned off is located corresponds to the interval in which the compensation gain of the second compensation cell of the shared cell to be turned off is located, specifically:

the device 100 determines that the shared cell to be turned off is a share cell that can be turned off when the sharing weight of the second user equipment in the shared cell to be turned off is greater than the first sharing weight threshold value and the compensating gain of the second compensating cell of the shared cell to be turned off is greater than the first compensating gain threshold value.

Exemplarily, the shared cell to be turned off is cell 1, the first sharing weight threshold is P1, and the first compensation gain threshold is G1. Determining that the cell 1 is the turn-off shared cell when the sharing weight of the second user equipment in the cell 1 is greater than P1 and the compensation gain of the second compensation cell of the cell 1 is greater than G1.

Illustratively, the shared cell to be turned off is cell 1, the threshold value of the second sharing weight is P2, and the threshold value of the second compensation gain is G2. When the determination device 100 determines that P1 is greater than or equal to the sharing weight > P2 of the second user equipment in the cell 1 and the compensation gain > G2 of the second compensation cell of the cell 1, it determines that the cell 1 is the turn-off shared cell.

Determining, by the device 100, that the shared cell to be turned off is a shared cell that can be turned off when the shared weight of the second user equipment in the shared cell to be turned off is not greater than the second shared weight threshold and is greater than the third shared weight threshold, and the compensation gain of the second compensation cell of the shared cell to be turned off is greater than the third compensation gain threshold.

Illustratively, the shared cell to be turned off is cell 1, the third sharing weight threshold is P3, and the third compensation gain threshold is G3. When the determination device 100 determines that P2 is greater than or equal to the sharing weight > P3 of the second user equipment in the cell 1 and the compensation gain > G3 of the second compensation cell of the cell 1, it determines that the cell 1 is the turn-off shared cell.

When the total traffic of the shared cell to be turned off is lower than the first threshold, the first traffic is not lower than the second threshold, and the second traffic is lower than the third threshold, the determining device 100 determines the shared cell to be turned off according to the sharing weight and the compensation gain parameter of the first user equipment in the shared cell to be turned off.

Specifically, the determining a shared cell to be turned off according to a sharing weight and a compensation gain parameter of a first user equipment in the shared cell to be turned off includes:

determining, by the device 100, that the shared cell to be turned off is the shared cell that can be turned off when the interval in which the sharing weight of the first user equipment in the shared cell to be turned off is located corresponds to the interval in which the compensation gain of the first compensation cell of the shared cell to be turned off is located, specifically:

the determining device 100 determines that the shared cell to be turned off is the turn-off capable shared cell when the sharing weight of the first user equipment in the shared cell to be turned off is greater than the first sharing weight threshold value and the compensating gain of the first compensating cell of the shared cell to be turned off is greater than the first compensating gain threshold value.

Illustratively, the shared cell to be turned off is cell 2. Determining that the cell 2 is the turn-off shared cell when the sharing weight of the first user equipment in the cell 2 is greater than P1 and the compensation gain of the first compensation cell of the cell 2 is greater than G1.

Determining, by the device 100, that the shared cell to be turned off is a shared cell that can be turned off when the shared weight of the first user equipment in the shared cell to be turned off is not greater than the first shared weight threshold and is greater than the second shared weight threshold, and the compensation gain of the first compensation cell of the shared cell to be turned off is greater than the second compensation gain threshold.

Illustratively, the shared cell to be turned off is cell 2. When the sharing weight of the first user equipment in the cell 2 is greater than or equal to P1 and the compensation gain of the first compensation cell of the cell 2 is greater than G2, the determining device 100 determines that the cell 2 is the turn-off shared cell.

Determining, by the device 100, that the shared cell to be turned off is a shared cell that can be turned off when the shared weight of the first user equipment in the shared cell to be turned off is not greater than the second shared weight threshold and is greater than the third shared weight threshold, and the compensation gain of the first compensation cell of the shared cell to be turned off is greater than the third compensation gain threshold.

Illustratively, the shared cell to be turned off is cell 2. The determining device 100 determines that the cell 2 is the turn-off shared cell when the sharing weight of the first user equipment in the cell 2 is greater than or equal to P2 and is greater than P3, and the compensation gain of the first compensation cell of the cell 2 is greater than G3.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the first sharing weight threshold > the second sharing weight threshold > the third sharing weight threshold (i.e., P1 > P2 > P3). The first compensation gain threshold value > the second compensation gain threshold value > the third compensation gain threshold value (i.e., G1 > G2 > G3).

It is worth mentioning that, in the determination method provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the value range of the shared weight is divided into a plurality of different intervals, and when the shared weight of the user equipment (for example, the first user equipment or the second user equipment) is located in different intervals, the compensation gain of the compensation cell is required to meet different threshold conditions. And the classification of the service performance requirements of the user equipment is realized by setting a layered sharing weight threshold. The user equipment with different performance requirements is matched with corresponding compensation cells by setting the layered compensation gain threshold value so as to meet the differentiated service performance requirements of different user equipment.

The existing cell switching-off method only determines a switching-off cell according to the service volume of the cell, does not distinguish the performance difference between the type of user equipment and different cells, and causes the service performance of a user to fluctuate after the cell is switched off, thereby influencing the user experience. Through S401 to S403, it can be seen that, with the determination method provided in the embodiment of the present invention, when determining a shared cell that can be turned off, not only the total traffic of the cell is considered, but also the traffic of various user equipments supporting different network identifiers is considered, so that the cell turn-off policy is matched with the traffic distribution status of the shared cell, and the cell turn-off policy is more accurate. Meanwhile, the method also defines a sharing weight and a compensation gain parameter, and ensures that all kinds of user equipment with different sharing weights can be migrated to the compensation cell meeting the performance requirement thereof by matching the compensation gain of the compensation cell with the sharing weight of all kinds of user equipment in the sharing cell, thereby realizing the consistency of the service performance of the user equipment before and after the cell is switched off and avoiding the fluctuation of the service performance caused by the cell switching off.

Referring to fig. 4, as shown in fig. 5, the determining method provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include:

s404, the determining device 100 obtains first information of co-coverage cells of each shared cell in the co-established shared network area.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the cell with the same coverage is a cell having the same coverage as the shared cell, and the first information includes a supported network type.

In a possible implementation manner, the determining device 100 first determines the co-coverage cell of each shared cell in the co-established shared network area, and then obtains the first information of the co-coverage cell of each shared cell in the co-established shared network area.

In one possible implementation, the first information further includes co-coverage cell identification information of the shared cell. The same coverage cell identification information of the shared cell may be preset in the determination device 100 (shared control module), or it may be determined whether the same coverage area exists between the cells based on the longitude and latitude, azimuth, and other parameters of each cell. The network identifier (PLMN identifier) supported by the co-coverage cell is preset at the base station side to which the cell belongs, and the determination device 100 may obtain the PLMN identifier supported by the co-coverage cell by sending a message to the base station.

S405, the determining device 100 determines a to-be-turned-off shared cell in the shared network region.

Accordingly, the shared cell not including the first compensation cell or the second compensation cell in the same coverage cell is the non-turn-off shared cell.

It should be noted that the compensating cell may be a shared cell or a non-shared cell. If the compensation cell is a shared cell, the first compensation cell and the second compensation cell may be the same cell. If the compensating cell is a non-shared cell, that is, only the user equipment supporting a certain PLMN identity is accessible, and the user equipment supporting another PLMN identity is not allowed to be accessed, the first compensating cell and the second compensating cell are different cells.

Different shared cells and compensation cells can be cells of the same system, and can also be third generation mobile communication technology (3 th generation mobile network, 3 g), fourth generation mobile communication technology (4 th generation mobile network, 4 g), and fifth generation mobile communication technology (5 th generation mobile network, 5 g). And the cells of different systems and the cells of all systems support data service types, but not necessarily all voice services.

It should be noted that, the determining method provided in the embodiment of the present invention determines the compensation cell of the shared cell and divides the compensation cell into the first compensation cell and the second compensation cell based on the network identifier (PLMN identifier) supported by the cell, the coverage area, and other factors, so that the user equipments supporting different PLMN identifiers after the shared cell is turned off can all be migrated to the compensation cell supporting the corresponding PLMN identifier, and meanwhile, the user equipments supporting different PLMN identifiers in the shared cell are considered, and it is ensured that the user equipments supporting different PLMN identifiers in the shared cell can all normally access the network after the shared cell is turned off.

S406, the determining device 100 sends a shutdown indication to the shutdown capable shared cell in the co-established shared network area.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the turn-off indication is used to indicate that the turn-off capable shared cell enters a cell turn-off state and performs a migration operation.

In a possible implementation manner, the migrating operation includes: the network equipment which the turn-off shared cell belongs to migrates first user equipment in the turn-off shared cell to a first compensation cell of the turn-off shared cell. And then migrating the second user equipment in the turn-off shared cell to a second compensation cell of the turn-off shared cell.

In a possible implementation manner, the shared cell may be turned off to send a third message carrying the cell migration indication, the first compensating cell identifier, and the second compensating cell identifier to the user equipment, so that the first user equipment and the second user equipment in the shared cell may be turned off and migrated to respective target cells, respectively. And after receiving the third message, the user equipment in the switched-off shared cell determines the target cell identifier of cell migration according to the currently selected PLMN identifier of the user equipment. And then migrate to the respective target cell. And then the shared cell can be turned off to enter a cell turn-off state, and the receiving and sending of the air interface signal are stopped. The PLMN identifier currently selected by the user includes: and if the PLMN identification currently selected by the first user equipment is the first PLMN, the target cell is the first compensation cell, and if the PLMN identification currently selected by the second user equipment is the second PLMN, the target cell is the second compensation cell.

It should be noted that, in the migration process of the user equipment, the determining method provided in the embodiment of the present invention selects the target cells supporting the same network identifier (PLMN identifier) for the user equipments supporting different PLMN identifiers, and migrates various user equipments into the corresponding compensation cells, respectively, thereby implementing continuity of service continuity of all the user equipments in the shared cell after the cell is turned off.
