Detailed Description
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the invention can be embodied in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein.
Fig. 1 shows a flowchart of a load balancing method according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps:
step 110: and determining a target cell with balanced load.
In this step, the target cell is a cell whose load utilization rate is lower than a threshold value in the inter-frequency neighboring cell of the source cell. The source cell is any cell with a load utilization rate higher than a threshold value. The threshold value is the maximum value of the cell load utilization. When the load utilization rate of the cell exceeds the threshold value of the cell, the processing capability of network data in the cell is insufficient, so that network congestion in the cell is caused.
The inter-frequency neighbor of the source cell is stored in the neighbor list. And the neighbor cell list stores the information of the active cell and the information of the neighbor cell of the active cell. The information of the source cell includes a frequency band of the source cell and a load utilization rate of the source cell. The information of the adjacent cell of the source cell comprises the frequency band and the load utilization rate of each adjacent cell of the source cell. And determining the pilot frequency adjacent cell of the source cell according to the frequency band of each adjacent cell, and taking the pilot frequency adjacent cell as a candidate adjacent cell with balanced load. And taking the candidate neighbor cell with the load utilization rate lower than the cell threshold value as a target cell for load balancing of the source cell so as to balance the load of the source cell to the target cell.
Step 120: and determining the cell types of the target cell and the source cell.
Wherein the cell categories include capacity layer cells and overlay layer cells. The capacity layer cell is a cell with a frequency band positioned in a capacity layer. The covering layer cell is a cell with a frequency band positioned on the covering layer. The frequency range of the capacity layer cell is low, the coverage is wide, and the signal coverage is weaker. The frequency range of the overlay cell is high, the interference is low, the frequency spectrum resources in the frequency band are many, and the signal coverage is strong. The capacity layer and the covering layer both comprise a plurality of frequency bands. For example, in LTE communication, cells in both the D band and the E band are capacity layer cells, and cells in the F band are overlay layer cells. And if any one cell in the target cell or the source cell is matched with any frequency band contained in the capacity layer, the cell is the capacity layer cell. And if any one of the target cell or the source cell is matched with any frequency band contained in the covering layer, the cell is the covering layer cell.
Step 130: and acquiring uplink RSRP of each load in the source cell.
In this step, when the load accesses the source cell, the load reports a Measurement Report (MR) to the base station of the source cell. The MR includes a loaded uplink Reference Signal Receiving Power (RSRP). The uplink RSRP is used to indicate the reception strength of the radio signal, and the larger the value of the RSRP is, the stronger the reception strength of the radio signal is.
Step 140: and performing coverage grade division on each load in the source cell according to the interval to which the uplink RSRP belongs to obtain the coverage grade corresponding to each load.
In this step, each coverage level corresponds to an uplink RSRP interval. In some embodiments, the coverage level includes three levels, coverage good, coverage medium, and coverage poor. Dividing the load with the uplink RSRP larger than or equal to-85 dBm to a coverage grade; dividing the load with the uplink RSRP less than-85 dBm and more than or equal to-105 dBm into a coverage medium level; and dividing the load with the uplink RSRP less than-105 dBm into coverage difference levels.
Step 150: and determining the balance priority of each load according to the coverage grade and the cell types of the target cell and the source cell.
In this step, if the source cell is a coverage cell and the target cell is a capacity layer cell, the received signal strength of the load with high coverage level in the source cell is high, so that the load with high coverage level in the source cell is balanced to the capacity layer and then more signals can be obtained compared with the load with low coverage level, and the uplink RSRP does not decay too fast, thereby having better user perception. The load with low coverage level in the source cell can receive low signal strength, and if the load is balanced to the capacity layer, the access failure is probably caused by poor coverage of the capacity layer. Therefore, when the source cell is an overlay cell and the target cell is a capacity layer cell, the load with high coverage level is preferentially selected to be balanced to the capacity layer. Namely, the balancing priority corresponding to the load with the high coverage level is the high priority, and the balancing priority corresponding to the load with the low coverage level is the low priority, so that the success rate of load balancing is improved, and the perception of a user is improved. Taking the coverage grades as a good coverage grade, a medium coverage grade and a poor coverage grade, wherein the equilibrium priorities comprise a high priority, a medium priority and a low priority, when the source cell is located in the coverage layer and the target cell is located in the capacity layer, the equilibrium priority corresponding to the good coverage grade is the high priority, the equilibrium priority corresponding to the medium coverage grade is the medium priority, and the equilibrium priority corresponding to the poor coverage grade is the low priority.
If the source cell is a capacity layer cell and the target cell is a covering layer cell, better uplink RSRP can be obtained after the load with low covering grade in the source cell is balanced to the covering layer, and therefore user perception is improved. When the load with high coverage level resides in the source cell at the capacity layer, the signal strength which can be received by the load is high, so that the load does not need to be preferentially accessed to the coverage layer. Better uplink RSRP may be obtained if the load is balanced to the overlay, but the user perception is less elevated than balancing the load with a low overlay level to the overlay. Therefore, when the source cell is a capacity layer cell and the target cell is an overlay cell, the balancing priority corresponding to the load with the low overlay level is the high priority, and the balancing priority corresponding to the load with the high overlay level is the low priority. Taking the coverage grades as a good coverage grade, a medium coverage grade and a poor coverage grade, wherein the equilibrium priorities comprise a high priority, a medium priority and a low priority, when the source cell is positioned on a capacity layer and the target cell is positioned on a coverage layer, the equilibrium priority corresponding to the poor coverage grade is the high priority, the equilibrium priority corresponding to the medium coverage grade is the medium priority, and the equilibrium priority corresponding to the good coverage grade is the low priority.
If the source cell is a capacity layer cell and the target cell is also a capacity layer cell, or the source cell is an overlay layer cell and the target cell is also an overlay layer cell, the load in the source cell can be randomly accessed to the target cell. Preferably, the load with high coverage grade in the source cell is accessed to the target cell, thereby improving the success rate of accessing the load to the target cell.
Step 160: and balancing the load to the target cell in sequence according to the balancing priority from high to low until the balancing stop condition is met.
In this step, the equalization stop condition includes: the load utilization rate of the source cell is less than or equal to the threshold value of the source cell in a preset time period, or the load utilization rate of the target cell reaches the threshold value of the target cell. When load balancing is carried out, the load is sequentially balanced to the target cell according to the sequence of the balancing priority from high to low, and the load utilization rate of the source cell and the target cell after one balancing is obtained every time load balancing is carried out. For the loads with the same balancing priority, the balancing sequence is random. If the load utilization rate of the source cell is lower than the threshold value of the load utilization rate of the source cell within a period of time, no further load balancing is needed. If the load utilization rate of the target cell is higher than the threshold value of the target cell after the load balanced by the access source cell, the load balancing can not be carried out any more. In this case, the problem of high load utilization of the source cell cannot be alleviated through load balancing, and the load utilization of the source cell may be reduced through other manners, for example, controlling the load number of the access source cell.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the load in the source cell is subjected to coverage grade division according to the uplink RSRP of each load in the source cell, the balanced priority of the load is determined according to the coverage grade and the cell types of the target cell and the source cell, when the load is balanced, the load in the target cell is balanced according to the balanced priority of the load from high to low, and better user perception can be obtained after the load with higher balanced priority is balanced to the target cell.
Fig. 2 shows a flow chart of a load balancing method according to another embodiment of the invention. In the embodiment of the invention, the target cells are multiple. As shown in fig. 2, the method comprises the steps of:
step 210: and determining a target cell with balanced load.
Step 220: and determining the cell types of the target cell and the source cell.
Step 230: and determining the transfer priority of each target cell according to the cell type of the source cell.
In this step, the handover priority indicates a priority of the target cell receiving the load of the source cell. If the source cell is an overlay cell, the transfer priority of a capacity layer cell of the plurality of target cells is higher than the transfer priority of the overlay cell. If the source cell is a capacity layer cell, the overlay layer cell of the plurality of target cells has a higher transfer priority than the capacity layer cell. By the method, the load in the overlay cell is preferentially balanced to the capacity layer cell, and the load of the capacity layer cell is preferentially balanced to the overlay cell, so that the success rate of accessing the load to the target cell is improved.
If the source cell is an overlay cell, the target cells are overlay cells, or the source cell is a capacity layer cell and the target cells are capacity layer cells, determining the transfer priority of each target cell according to the load utilization rate in the target cells. The target cell with low load utilization rate corresponds to a high transfer priority, and the target cell with high load utilization rate corresponds to a low transfer priority.
Step 240: and acquiring uplink RSRP of each load in the source cell.
Step 250: and performing coverage grade division on each load in the source cell according to the interval to which the uplink RSRP belongs to obtain the coverage grade corresponding to each load.
Step 260: and determining the balance priority of each load according to the coverage grade and the cell types of the target cell and the source cell.
In this step, the balancing priority of each load is determined according to the target cell with the highest transfer priority. The specific determination method is the same as the method in step 150 in the previous embodiment, and is not described herein again.
Step 270: and sequencing the target cells according to the transfer priority from high to low.
Step 280: and sequentially taking the sequenced target cells as access cells, and sequentially balancing the load to the access cells according to the sequence of the balancing priority from high to low until the balancing stop condition is met.
In this step, the first target cell which is ranked first is used as an access cell, and the load is balanced to the first target cell in sequence from high to low according to the balancing priority. And if the load utilization rate of the source cell is still higher than that of the source cell when the load utilization rate of the first target cell reaches the threshold value after balancing, taking the second target cell which is ranked and positioned at the second position as an access cell, continuing to perform load balancing, and so on until the balancing stop condition is met. And if the load utilization rate of the target cell does not reach the threshold value after balancing, and the load utilization rate of the source cell is lower than the load utilization rate of the source cell, completing the load balancing.
In the embodiment of the invention, a plurality of target cells with balanced load are provided, the transfer priority of each target cell is determined according to the cell type of the source cell, the load is preferentially balanced to the target cell with high transfer priority, the reliability of load access is improved, and the user perception is better after the load access.
