The following describes in detail embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the present invention, are given by way of illustration and explanation only, not limitation.
As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a cell access method, which may include the following steps:
step 1, obtaining external access information, wherein the access information comprises operator network information to be accessed and access priority information, and the access priority information at least comprises frequency band priority information.
In the embodiment of the invention, the cell access method can be applied to user terminals which are international roaming in a certain country or region. The user terminal may obtain access information for accessing the cell from the outside, such as operator network information to be accessed, frequency band priority information, and the like.
The operator network information may include network information of a specific operator, and since different frequency bands are allocated to multiple operators for the operators to use as network coverage, the access information may also provide frequency band priority information of the specific operator.
And step 2, determining a cell corresponding to the operator network information to be accessed.
After the user terminal obtains the access information from the outside, an international roaming re-network selection mechanism is triggered, namely, the initial access cell search is carried out at the current position again so as to determine the cell corresponding to the operator network information to be accessed.
And step 3, determining the cell to be accessed according to the access priority information.
The user terminal may determine a cell to be accessed from the cells determined in step 2 at least according to the frequency band priority information acquired from the outside. And selecting the cell to be accessed according to the frequency band priority information, so that the user terminal can be ensured to be preferentially accessed to the cell with high frequency band priority.
As can be seen from steps 1 to 3, in the cell access method provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the user terminal may determine the cell to be accessed to the operator network according to the operator network information to be accessed acquired from the outside, and then determine the current cell to be accessed from the cell to be accessed to the operator network according to the priority information at least including the frequency band priority information acquired from the outside.
In some embodiments, the obtaining external access information (i.e., step 1) may include: and acquiring access information in a mode of scanning the two-dimensional code.
In the embodiment of the invention, an operator can provide two-dimension code scanning service for international roaming users at an entry and exit port and the like, the two-dimension code can carry network information of the operator to be accessed and access priority information, and the access priority information can at least comprise frequency band priority information. The international roaming user can use the user terminal to scan the two-dimension code, and activate the network reselection mechanism after obtaining the access information, namely, the current cell to be accessed is determined according to the access information and the access to the current cell to be accessed is attempted.
In some embodiments, the operator network information comprises public land mobile network, PLMN, information of a predetermined operator network.
Since PLMN information of different operator networks is generally different, if network access after international roaming is implemented based on a 3GPP standard flow, different PLMN information is not distinguished to which operator network, respectively, and a network selection process is to perform cell search based on a selected PLMN, so that it is not distinguished to which operator network a cell preferentially accessed by a user terminal belongs.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the access information obtained from the outside by the user terminal through step 1 may include PLMN information of a preset operator network. After acquiring the PLMN information of the preset operator network from the outside, the user terminal can preferentially access the cell of the preset operator network.
In some embodiments, the accessing priority information further includes network type priority information, and the determining a cell to be accessed according to the accessing priority information (i.e. step 3) may include: and determining the cell to be accessed according to the network system priority information and the frequency band priority information.
In the embodiment of the present invention, since the access information provides the preset PLMN information of the operator, the access information may also provide the network type priority corresponding to the PLMN information.
For example, there are three main carrier network companies in China, which are China Unicom network communications group, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as "Unicom"), China Mobile communications group, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as "Mobile"), and China Telecommunications group, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as "Telecommunications"). The network systems of 4G (the 4Generation mobile communication technology, fourth Generation communication technology), 3G (3rd-Generation, third Generation mobile communication technology) and 2G (2-Generation wireless telephone technology, second Generation mobile communication technology) are adopted for the communication, the mobile and the telecommunication. If the PLMN, i.e. 46001, provided in the external access information is a connected PLMN, the access information may further provide a network type priority: TD-LTE/FDD-LTE (Time Division-LTE/Frequency Division duplex LTE) for 4G, WCDMA for 3G, and GSM for 2G. If the external access information provides the mobile PLMN, that is, 46000, the access information may also provide a network system priority: TD-LTE of 4G, TD-SCDMA of 3G, and GSM of 2G.
It should be noted that the network systems adopted by different operator networks are different and are not limited to the various network systems listed above, and the network system priority information provided in the access information may be determined according to the provided operator network information.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2, the determining a cell to be accessed according to the network system priority information and the frequency band priority information (i.e. step 3) may include the following steps:
and 31, sequencing the cells corresponding to the network information of the operator to be accessed according to the network standard priority information to obtain a first cell sequence.
After the user terminal obtains all cells of the designated operator network through the search in step 2, all cells can be sorted for the first time according to the network system priority information to obtain a first cell sequence.
And step 32, sequencing the cells with the same network system in the first cell sequence according to the frequency band priority information to obtain a second cell sequence.
Since multiple cells of the same network type may have different frequency bands, the user terminal may also re-sequence the cells of the same network type in the first cell sequence according to the frequency band priority information, so as to obtain a second cell sequence.
And step 33, determining the cell to be accessed according to the second cell sequence.
The user terminal may select a cell to be currently accessed from the second cell sequence in turn.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3, after the determining a cell to be accessed according to the second cell sequence (i.e. step 33), the following steps may be further included:
and step 34, accessing the cell to be accessed.
Step 35, judging whether the access to the cell to be accessed is successful, if so, ending the process; otherwise, step 33 is executed again until the cell access is successful.
In the embodiment of the invention, if the cell to be accessed is not accessed successfully, the cell to be accessed is determined according to the second cell sequence until the cell is accessed successfully.
It should be noted that, in the first cell sequence, the user terminal may sequence all the cells in order from high to low according to the network system priority, or sequence all the cells in order from low to high according to the network system priority. Similarly, in the second cell sequence, the user terminal may sequence all the cells in an order from high to low in the network system priority and the frequency band priority, or sequence all the cells in an order from low to high in the network system priority and the frequency band priority. However, no matter all the cells in the second cell sequence are sorted from high to low or from low to high according to the two priorities, the user terminal determines the cells to be accessed according to the sequence from high to low according to the two priorities until the cells are successfully accessed.
