Since the coverage and performance requirements of NSA network and SA network are different, it is necessary to configure NSA network, SA network, 4G network, etc. differently. Illustratively, the dual mode base station may set the threshold for the A2 event to-110 dBm and the threshold for the B1 event to-115 dBm.

It should be noted that, the embodiments of the present application may refer to or refer to each other, for example, the same or similar steps, and the method embodiment, the system embodiment and the device embodiment may refer to each other, which is not limited.
To meet different network communication requirements of the terminal, an operator may provide a communication access service for the terminal using a base station capable of supporting different network communications (e.g., a dual mode base station capable of supporting NSA and SA). . However, the current dual-mode base station performs by default to start the working modes of all network systems that can be supported, which results in excessive operation power consumption of the base station and reduces the service life of the base station.
If one network system is directly closed by the dual-mode base station and the other network system is only opened, the scheme can reduce the operation power consumption of the base station, but can cause that part of terminals cannot access the closed network to influence the use experience of users.
Therefore, a technical scheme for reasonably controlling the working mode of the dual-mode base station is not available at present.
In order to solve the problem that the working mode of a base station cannot be reasonably controlled in the prior art, the application provides a base station control method.
As shown in fig. 3, fig. 3 is a flowchart of a base station control method according to an embodiment of the present application, where the method includes the following steps:
s301, the base station control device acquires a plurality of measurement reports of the target base station.
The working mode of the target base station comprises the following steps: and an independent networking SA single-mode working mode and an SA and non-independent networking NSA dual-mode working mode.
In this embodiment, taking the target base station as an NSA/SA dual-mode base station as an example, the terminal may use the NSA network through the base station or may use the SA network through the base station.
In one possible implementation manner, the base station control device may acquire a measurement report of the target base station in a preset period.
The preset time period may be a measurement report within one hour, or may be a measurement report within one day.
S302, the base station control device determines the duty ratio of a first measurement report in a plurality of measurement reports.
The first measurement report is a measurement report sent by a terminal in a non-independent networking NSA working mode.
In a possible implementation, the measurement report includes a first identification, the first identification being used to characterize the network used by the terminal. The base station control device may determine, from the first identifier, a duty cycle of a measurement report transmitted by the terminal in the NSA operation mode, among the plurality of measurement reports.
Illustratively, the object tag in the measurement report includes an AMF UE NGAP application identity, an AMF area identity, an AMF group identity, and an AMF identity that can characterize a network used by the terminal. For example, when the value of the AMF area identifier is NIL, it indicates that the network currently used by the terminal is NSA network, and when the value of the AMF area identifier is not NIL, it indicates that the network currently used by the terminal is SA network. The method for determining the network currently used by the terminal through other identifiers is similar to the method described above, and is not repeated in the present application.
The first measurement report has a ratio of the number of first measurement reports to the total number of the plurality of measurement reports, and the base station control device may determine the ratio of terminals using the NSA network in the target base station indirectly from the first measurement report. The higher the duty cycle of the first measurement report, the higher the terminal proportion using the NSA network; the lower the duty cycle of the first measurement report, the lower the terminal ratio that indicates to use the NSA network.
S303, the base station control device determines the working mode of the target base station according to the duty ratio of the first measurement report.
It should be noted that, in the embodiments of the present application, the operation mode of the target base station is determined by acquiring a plurality of measurement reports and determining the duty ratio of the first measurement report. The measurement report can be acquired through the target base station, and the target base station corresponds to a target cell covered by the target base station, so that the base station control device can control the working mode of the target base station based on the granularity of the cell, and meanwhile, the measurement report mainly comprises the performance data of network communication received by the target base station in real time, so that the base station control device can monitor the target base station in real time.
The scheme at least brings the following beneficial effects: in the method, the base station control device acquires a plurality of detection reports of the target base station and determines the duty ratio of a first measurement report in the detection reports, so that the working mode of the target base station is determined according to the duty ratio of the first measurement report. Wherein the duty cycle of the first measurement report may indirectly characterize the proportion of terminals in the target base station using the NSA network. In this way, the base station control device can reasonably control the working mode of the base station according to the proportion of the terminal equipment using the NSA network, and further reduce the operation power consumption of the target base station under the condition of ensuring the use experience of the user, thereby prolonging the service life of the base station.
Hereinafter, a method for determining the operation mode of the target base station by the base station control apparatus will be specifically described in conjunction with the above step S303.
As a possible embodiment of the present application, in conjunction with fig. 3, as shown in fig. 4, the above step S303 may be specifically implemented by the following steps S401 to S403:
s401, when the duty ratio of the first measurement report is smaller than or equal to a first threshold value, the base station control device determines that the working mode of the target base station is SA single-mode working mode.
As can be seen from the above embodiments, the lower the duty cycle of the first measurement report, the lower the terminal ratio using the NSA network. Therefore, when the duty ratio of the first measurement report is less than or equal to the first threshold value, it is explained that the terminals using the NSA network are few among the plurality of terminals of the target base station. At this time, the base station control device may determine that the operation mode of the target base station is the SA single mode operation mode, so as to reduce the operation power consumption of the target base station. Meanwhile, terminals using the NSA network may be handed over to other networks (e.g., 4G) or access other base stations capable of providing the NSA network to ensure normal network communication for the terminals.
The first threshold may be 1% or 0, for example. When the first threshold is 0, that is, when there is no terminal using the NSA network among the plurality of terminals of the target base station, the base station control apparatus determines that the operation mode of the target base station is the SA single mode operation mode. The base station control device may set the value of the first threshold according to the actual situation, which is not limited in this application.
S402, when the duty ratio of the first measurement report is greater than the first threshold, the base station control device determines the duty ratio of the second measurement report among the plurality of measurement reports.
The second measurement report is a measurement report with signal strength greater than a preset threshold in the first measurement report.
In a possible implementation manner, the base station control device may determine, from the first measurement report, a measurement report with a signal strength greater than a preset threshold as the second measurement report according to the signal strength carried in the first measurement report.
Illustratively, the base station control device may characterize the signal strength by reference signal received power (reference signal receiving power, RSRP). The measurement report includes an identifier for determining the RSRP, and the base station control apparatus can determine the RSRP size using the identifier.
The base station control device may also characterize the signal strength by receiving a signal strength indication (reference singal strength indicator, RSSI) and a signal-to-noise ratio (signal to interference plus noise ratio, SINR), and the specific manner is similar to the above-described scheme, and the embodiment of the present application uses RSRP as an example, and it should be understood that those skilled in the art may implement the technical scheme provided in the embodiment of the present application according to other parameters for characterizing the signal strength.
It should be understood that, because of the coverage of NSA networks and SA networks, the performance requirements are different, and thus the target base station typically needs to configure NSA networks, SA networks, 4G networks, etc. differently. Such differentiated configuration may result in that a network handover operation is not performed even though the terminal has currently met the minimum performance requirements of a certain network.
Illustratively, the target base station is provided with an A2 event and a B1 event, the A2 event being used to characterize a handoff of the terminal from the SA network to the 4G network. B1 events are used to characterize the terminal's handover from other networks to NSA networks. The target base station sets the threshold value of the A2 event to-110 dBm, namely when the RSRP of the terminal is smaller than-110 dBm, the terminal can be switched from the SA network to the 4G network; the threshold value of the B1 event is set to-115 dBm, i.e., when the RSRP of the terminal is greater than-115 dBm, the terminal may be handed over from other networks (e.g., 3G, 4G, etc.) to the NSA network. At this time, if a terminal using the SA network moves from a place where the network coverage quality is good to a place where the network coverage quality is poor, the terminal switches from the SA network to the 4G network because the terminal satisfies the threshold value of the A2 event when the RSRP of the terminal is reduced to-113 dBm. And because the terminal also satisfies the threshold value of the B1 event, the terminal will continue to switch from the 4G network to the NSA network.
In one possible implementation, the preset threshold may be a threshold for the target base station to switch the terminal from the SA network to the 4G network, i.e. a threshold for the A2 event. The preset threshold value can also be set according to actual conditions, which is not limited in the application.
S403, the base station control device determines the working mode of the target base station according to the duty ratio of the second measurement report.
It should be noted that, as shown in step S402, terminals similar to the above example are terminals using NSA networks due to the differentiated configuration of the target base station, and the actual experience of using 4G networks or using NSA networks is not quite different because the RSRP of these terminals is low.
However, for the second measurement report with signal strength greater than the preset threshold, the actual experience of the corresponding terminal using the 4G network or using the NSA network is quite different. The higher the duty ratio of the second measurement report, the higher the terminal proportion that the NSA network is closed and the user experience is affected is indicated; conversely, the lower the duty cycle of the second measurement report, the lower the proportion of terminals that the user experience is affected by shutting down the NSA network.
The base station control means may thus also determine the operation mode of the target base station based on the duty cycle of the second measurement report.
As a possible embodiment of the present application, in conjunction with fig. 4, as shown in fig. 5, the above step S403 may be specifically implemented by the following steps S501-S502:
s501, when the duty ratio of the second measurement report is less than or equal to the second threshold, the base station control device determines that the operation mode of the target base station is the SA single mode operation mode.
From the above embodiments, it is shown that the lower the duty cycle of the second measurement report, the lower the proportion of terminals that have affected the user experience caused by closing the NSA network. Therefore, when the duty ratio of the first measurement report is less than or equal to the first threshold, it is indicated that, among the plurality of terminals of the target base station, the NSA network is turned off, so that the terminals with affected user experience are few.
For example, the second threshold may be 5%, and the base station control device may set the value of the first threshold according to the actual situation, which is not limited in this application.
And S502, under the condition that the duty ratio of the second measurement report is larger than a second threshold value, the base station control device determines that the working mode of the target base station is SA and NSA dual-mode working mode.
For similar reasons in S501, the higher the duty cycle of the second measurement report, the higher the proportion of terminals that shut down the NSA network results in the user experience being affected. Therefore, when the duty ratio of the first measurement report is greater than the first threshold, it is indicated that, among the plurality of terminals of the target base station, the NSA network is turned off, so that the user experience is more affected, and therefore, the base station control device can determine that the working mode of the target base station is the SA and NSA dual-mode working mode, so as to ensure the user experience of the user.
The scheme at least brings the following beneficial effects: in the method, a base station control device determines that the working mode of a target base station is an SA single-mode working mode under the condition that the duty ratio of a first measurement report is smaller than or equal to a first threshold value; and further determining the duty ratio of the second measurement report under the condition that the duty ratio of the first measurement report is larger than a first threshold value, and determining the working mode of the target base station according to the duty ratio of the second measurement report. Wherein the duty cycle of the second measurement report may indirectly characterize the proportion of terminals that shut down the NSA network resulting in an affected user experience. In this way, the base station control device can also reasonably control the working mode of the base station based on the terminal with the affected user experience caused by closing the NSA network, and further reduce the operation power consumption of the target base station under the condition of ensuring the user experience, thereby prolonging the service life of the base station.
