Description

Cell reselection method and device and user equipment
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of wireless communication technologies, and in particular, to a cell reselection method, apparatus and user equipment.
Background
In a mobile communication system, handover and cell reselection are very important components, and specifically, when a UE (User Equipment) leaves one cell and enters another cell, signals of the original cell (serving cell) received by the UE become weaker and weaker, and signals of the entering cell received by the UE become stronger and stronger. In order to maintain the quality of the signals received by the UE, the UE must be switched from the original base station (or cell) to the base station (or cell) where the newly entered signal is stronger. For a connected UE, this transition between base stations is called handover; for idle UE, the change of the UE resident cell is completed through a cell Reselection (Reselection) process, and it is necessary to detect the serving cell and the target cell and perform cell Reselection in a cell meeting the requirement.
In a wireless cellular system, there is a cell reselection strategy based on frequency priority for a UE during inter-cell reselection. When planning a cell network, an operator divides all frequencies into several groups, and each group is assigned with a priority. Each cell broadcasts the priority of the frequency on which it is located and the priority of the frequency on which the adjacent cell is located. If a cell on a high priority frequency meets the reselection condition, the UE needs to reselect to the cell on the high priority frequency.
For cells on the same frequency or cells on the same priority frequency, the UE needs to perform cell reselection according to the following ranking criteria of signal quality:
calculating R for a serving cells＝Qmeas,s+ Qhyst, R is calculated for the neighbor celln＝Qmeas,nQoffset, where s denotes the serving cell, n denotes the neighbor cell, Qmeas,sDenotes RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power), Q, of a serving cell measured by a UE during cell reselectionmeas,nIndicating that UE measures RSRP of adjacent cells in the cell reselection process, Qhyst indicating service cell hysteresis, Qoffset indicating offset value of adjacent cells, and Qoffset indicating same-frequency adjacent cell Qoffset as Qoffsets,nQoffset of the pilot frequency adjacent areas,n+Qoffsetfrequency，Qoffsets,nOffset, Qoffset, representing the cell levelfrequencyIndicating the shift in frequency level. The UE sorts all R values of the cells on the same frequency priority, the first cell is the best cell, and the UE reselects the best cell. Broadcasting Qhyst, Qoffset and Qoffset in system messages of serving cellfrequencyAnd after the UE reads the system message, the parameters are obtained for cell reselection. HandleThe line ranking criterion is premised on that these cells need to meet the criteria for cell Selection (Selection), i.e. the following S-criterion:
the criteria for satisfying cell selection in the existing protocol is defined as having to satisfy both Srxlev >0 and Squal >0, where
Srxlev＝Qrxlevmeas–(Qrxlevmin+Qrxlevminoffset)–Pcompensation，
Squal＝Qqualmeas–(Qqualmin+Qqualminoffset)，
In LTE (Long term evolution) system, Q in the above formularxlevmeasMeasuring RSRP, Q of a cell for a UEqualmeasMeasuring the RSRQ (Reference Signal Received Quality) of the cell for the UE; qrxlevminAnd QqualminThe two parameters are respectively corresponding minimum values, and the two parameters are broadcasted in a system message of a serving cell; qrxlevminoffsetAnd QqualminoffsetRespectively corresponding offset, and only applied to a UE residing in a VPLMN (Visited Public Land Mobile Network) to evaluate a cell in a PLMN (Public Land Mobile Network) of high priority; pcomp pisation is a method that considers the actual Maximum transmit power (Maximum RF output power, P) of the UEPowerClassExpressed) and Maximum allowed transmit power (Maximum TX power level, P) for the cellEMAX_HExpressed) of Pcompensition ═ max (P)EMAX_H–PPowerClass，0)。
In 5G (or NR, New Radio), because 5G is deployed at high frequency, wireless signals exhibit characteristics of good directivity and large path loss at high frequency, a large cell needs multiple beams (Beam) to achieve complete coverage, and one Beam can only cover a limited range. A small cell may contain only one beam. For a cell formed by multiple beams, due to the limitation of hardware, not all beams can be transmitted at the same time, and time-sharing transmission is required, which is called Beam Sweeping (Beam Sweeping).
For a cell in NR, its synchronization signal (including primary and secondary synchronization signals) is transmitted within 5ms at a certain period, such as a period of 20ms/40ms/80 ms. A cell may transmit one or more SS blocks (synchronization signal blocks, i.e. different beams), such as 4 SS blocks or 8 SS blocks. One SS block includes PSS (Primary Synchronization Signal)/SSs (Secondary Synchronization Signal) and PBCH (Physical Broadcast Channel). The PSS and SSS are used to identify the cell identity to the UE and to obtain symbol-level synchronization for the UE. When the UE evaluates the signal quality of a cell, it needs to combine the measured strongest N beams of the cell to obtain the signal quality of the cell. The value of N may be configured by the network, N > -1.
When Cell reselection is performed in the NR, two cells Cell 1 and Cell 2 with the same frequency are considered, and have partial overlapping coverage, an almost stationary UE is in an overlapping coverage area, and the UE measures that 3 beam signals of Cell 1 are X1, X2 and X3 in sequence; the 3 beam signals of Cell 2 measured by the UE are Y1, Y2 and Y3 in this order. It is assumed that the signal quality value of a cell consists of the strongest 3 beams of the cell, which of course need to meet a preset threshold. Assume that Cell 1 has a signal quality exceeding Cell 2 and that the UE currently resides in Cell 1. The system message of Cell 1 broadcasts a preset signal quality threshold value, at this time, the UE needs to select a Cell containing the maximum number of good beams (beams exceeding the signal quality threshold value, according to TS38.304 vf.0.0, the threshold is tentatively named absThreshSS-association) to camp on, and according to the threshold of the decision good beams broadcast by Cell 1, the UE finds that the number of good beams of Cell 1 is 1, and the number of good beams of Cell 2 is 2. At this time, the UE needs to reselect to Cell 2, and after the UE resides in Cell 2, the following two ping-pong reselection scenarios may occur:
scene 1: the UE needs to determine the measured good beam numbers of Cell 1 and Cell 2 according to the threshold of the decision good beam broadcast by Cell 2, because the threshold of Cell 2 is lower than that set by Cell 1, the UE finds that Cell 1 has 3 good beams, and Cell 2 has only 2 good beams. At this time, the UE needs to reselect to Cell 1.
Scene 2: the UE finds that Cell 2 is not configured with a threshold for determining the good beam number, i.e. the UE needs to sort by R (i.e. by R)RsAnd RnRank) selects the strongest Cell dwell because Cell 1 has a better signal than Cell 2 and therefore the UE needs to reselect to Cell 1.
When the UE frequently performs cell reselection between the two cells, not only the power of the UE is consumed, but also the frequent change of the camped cell makes the UE may not smoothly access the network.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
An embodiment of the present invention provides a cell reselection method, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes:
s11, the UE determines at least two strong cells from the same-frequency cell and the different-frequency cell with the same priority as the current resident frequency.
Specifically, the UE may determine at least two strong cells according to RSRP of the co-frequency cell and the inter-frequency cell with the same priority as the current camping frequency, that is, according to R ranking (according to R)sAnd RnRank) at least two cells for which the signal is strong. The serving cell in which the UE currently resides may be configured with a parameter ranging to bestcell, so that the UE determines one or several strong cells having a signal quality within a certain range from the strongest cell. For example, if the rangeToBestCell is set to-3 db and the UE measures a signal quality of-62 dbm for the strongest cell, the UE considers all cells exceeding-65 dbm (i.e., -62-3) to be strong cells, and the set of strong cells includes the strongest cell.
In this step, the co-frequency cell may refer to a neighboring cell having the same frequency as the currently camped cell of the UE, or to a neighboring cell on the same frequency.
S12, for the at least two strong cells, the UE determines the number of beams included in each cell that exceed a signal quality threshold (absThreshSS-association), where the same frequency cell, or the same frequency cell and an alien frequency cell with the same priority as the current camping frequency use the same signal quality threshold, the UE obtains the signal quality threshold from the currently camping serving cell, and the serving cell may set the same signal quality threshold for the same frequency cell, or the same frequency cell and an alien frequency cell with the same priority as the current camping frequency.
Specifically, the network presets the co-frequency cell and the pilot frequency cell with the same priority as the current resident frequency, and both adopt a cell reselection mechanism for selecting the resident cell according to the good beam number, and sets the co-frequency cell and the pilot frequency cell with the same priority as the current resident frequency to adopt the same signal quality threshold, that is: the threshold value used to determine good beam (beam exceeding the signal quality threshold absThreshSS-association) is the same. Or the network setting uses the same signal quality threshold for cells on the same frequency. For a cell, the UE may measure multiple beams, i.e., different SS blocks, for the cell, but the good beams that exceed the signal quality threshold are a subset of the beam number of the cell measured by the UE.
In order to ensure that the cells with the same frequency or the cells with the same frequency priority adopt the same signal quality threshold, the interface signaling between the base stations may carry the frequency and the signal quality threshold, or the frequency and the frequency priority and the signal quality threshold, so that all the neighboring base stations can adopt the same signal quality threshold when configuring the neighboring cells with the same frequency or the neighboring cells with the same frequency priority. The interface signaling between the existing base stations comprises Xn interface establishment and base station configuration updating, and cells can be added in the signaling to indicate the signal quality threshold value set by the cell under the control of the base station, so that after the adjacent base stations obtain the information, the same signal quality threshold value can be set in the cell with the same frequency or the same signal quality threshold value can be set for the cells with the same frequency priority.
S13, the UE selects the cell containing the largest number of beams exceeding the signal quality threshold for camping.
Further, if there are at least two cells including the cell with the largest number of beams exceeding the signal quality threshold, the UE selects the cell with the largest RSRP among the at least two cells to camp on.
In the cell reselection method provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the UE determines at least two strong cells from the co-frequency cells and the inter-frequency cells having the same priority as the current camping frequency, determines the number of beams included in the at least two strong cells and exceeding a signal quality threshold, selects a cell having the largest number of beams exceeding the signal quality threshold for camping, and when there are at least two cells in the cell having the largest number of beams exceeding the signal quality threshold, the UE selects a cell having the largest RSRP among the at least two cells for camping. Because the same-frequency cells and the pilot frequency cells with the same priority as the current resident frequency adopt the same signal quality threshold value, the UE can be ensured to obtain a constant number when determining the good beam number for each cell, the ping-pong reselection is avoided, and the power consumption of the UE is reduced and the UE is ensured to be smoothly accessed into the network.
An embodiment of the present invention provides another cell reselection method, as shown in fig. 2, the method includes:
s21, when the UE finds out the adjacent cells with the same frequency in the process of cell reselection, or when the different cell reselection mechanisms are used by the different frequency cells with the same priority as the current resident frequency, the UE determines the strongest cell from the adjacent cells with the same frequency and the different frequency cells with the same priority as the current resident frequency.
Specifically, the UE may determine the strongest cell according to the RSRP of the co-frequency cell and the pilot frequency cell with the same priority as the current camping frequency.
And S22, the UE selects the strongest cell for residing.
Specifically, when the network sets reselection mechanisms for the same-frequency cells and the different-frequency cells with the same priority as the current resident frequency, different reselection mechanisms are adopted by the network, so that some UEs find that a reselection mechanism for selecting the strongest cell to reside according to RSRP ranking and a reselection mechanism for selecting the cell to reside according to a good beam number exceeding a signal quality threshold value are partially adopted among the same-frequency neighboring cells or among the different-frequency cells with the same priority as the current resident frequency in a reselection process, and in order to avoid the possible ping-pong reselection, the UE adopts a cell reselection mechanism for selecting the strongest cell to reside. By adopting the scheme, the UE needs to record the cell reselection mechanism used in the most recent cell reselection process for several times so as to judge whether the reselection mechanism is consistent between the cells with the same frequency or between the cells with different frequencies with the same priority as the current resident frequency.
The different cell reselection mechanisms comprise a reselection mechanism for selecting the strongest cell to camp on according to the RSRP sorting and a reselection mechanism for selecting the cell to camp on according to the good beam number exceeding the signal quality threshold value.
The cell reselection method provided by the embodiment of the invention determines the strongest cell from the co-frequency cell and the pilot frequency cell with the same priority as the current resident frequency, and selects the strongest cell for residing. Because the strongest cell is constant, ping-pong reselection can be avoided, thereby reducing the power consumption of the UE and ensuring that the UE accesses the network smoothly.
An embodiment of the present invention provides another cell reselection method, as shown in fig. 3, the method includes:
and S31, the UE records the cell reselected by the UE within the preset time.
Wherein the predetermined time may be set by a serving cell where the UE is camped on, or by the UE itself, such as the value set to 8 seconds.
And S32, when the number of times of reselecting the UE between the at least two cells in the preset time exceeds the preset number, the UE selects the cell with the maximum RSRP in the at least two cells for residing.
And in the preset time, the number of times that the UE reselects between at least two cells exceeds a preset number of times, that is, ping-pong reselection occurs, where the occurrence scenario of ping-pong reselection may be scenario 1 or scenario 2. At this time, the UE does not adopt a cell reselection mechanism for selecting a camped cell according to the good beam number, but adopts a cell reselection mechanism for selecting the strongest cell for camping. For example, for scenario 2, even if the cell 1 configures a parameter, such as a ranging to bestcell, that needs to reselect the cell according to the good beam number, after determining that ping-pong reselection occurs, the UE needs to ignore the parameter configured by the cell 1 and used to reselect the cell according to the good beam number, and still select the cell reselection mechanism that camps on the strongest cell in the cell 1.
Further, after a period of time elapses or the UE finds that the signal quality of the cell changes, for example, the UE finds that the signal of the camped serving cell changes or the signal of the cell that has undergone ping-pong reselection before changes, the UE needs to resume performing cell reselection according to the parameters in the system message broadcast by the camped cell. Such as scenario 2 when the UE resides in cell 1, after a period of time, e.g., 10 seconds; or the UE finds that the signal quality of the cell 1 or the cell 2 changes, including changes according to the R sorting order, and the UE needs to resume performing cell reselection according to the system message of the cell 1, because the cell 1 broadcasts the parameters that the cell needs to be reselected according to the good beam number, the UE resumes the cell reselection mechanism for reselecting the cell according to the good beam number.
In order to avoid that the UE is prompted to perform ping-pong reselection again due to signal variation caused by fine signal jitter, the UE may set a threshold for the signal variation, and if the signal quality variation of the currently camped cell exceeds a preset threshold, or the signal quality variation of the cell in which ping-pong reselection occurs exceeds a preset threshold, the UE resumes performing cell reselection according to parameters in the system message broadcast by the camped cell.
According to the cell reselection method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the UE records the reselected cell within the preset time, and when the reselected times of the UE between at least two cells within the preset time exceed the preset times, the cell with the maximum RSRP in the at least two cells is selected to reside, so that the UE can be timely processed when frequently reselected between the two cells, the ping-pong reselection is eliminated, the UE is ensured to be smoothly accessed into a network, and the power consumption of the UE is reduced.
