Description

Method for reducing time synchronization wireless network switching time delay
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of wireless communication, and particularly relates to a method for reducing time synchronization wireless network switching delay.
Background
Wireless communication systems are widely deployed to provide various telecommunication services such as telephony, video, data, messaging, and broadcasting, and typical wireless communication systems may employ multiple access techniques capable of supporting communication with multiple users by sharing available system resources (e.g., bandwidth, transmit power, etc.), a wireless communication network may include multiple Base Stations (BSs) capable of supporting communication for multiple User Equipments (UEs) that may communicate with the Base Stations (BSs) via downlink and uplink, the downlink (or forward link) referring to the communication link from the BS to the UE, and the uplink (or reverse link) referring to the communication link from the UE to the BS.
At present, in an operator network, a 4G base station and a 5G base station generally adopt GPS synchronization, which are both time synchronization wireless networks, the wireless networks can realize the service continuity of a user in the moving process through a switching function, and the service experience of the user is directly influenced by the switching time delay. Operators also pay attention to data service interruption delay in the switching process, and the switching delay is required to be not more than 70ms, and the switching process comprises switching preparation, switching execution and switching completion. In the stage of switching preparation, the user can continue to maintain data transmission with the source service base station, and in the stage of switching completion, the user can carry out data transmission with the target base station. The handover execution phase is the key to influence the handover delay.
In the prior art, when a source base station sends a handover command, the sending time of a synchronization signal block SSB of a target cell is not considered, which may cause that a user equipment UE needs to wait for a long time to receive a synchronization block when receiving the handover command and then synchronizing with the target cell, thereby increasing the overall handover delay.
Disclosure of Invention
Problems to be solved
The invention provides a method for reducing the switching delay of a time-synchronous wireless network, aiming at the problem that when the existing source base station sends a switching command, the sending time of a synchronous signal block SSB of a target cell is not considered, so that User Equipment (UE) needs to wait for a longer time to receive a synchronous block when the UE is synchronized with the target cell after receiving the switching command, thereby increasing the overall switching delay.
Technical scheme
In order to solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions.
A method for reducing time synchronization wireless network switching time delay adopts the following steps:
step 1: the time synchronization wireless network carries out network switching preparation and continues to maintain data transmission with the source service base station;
step 2: a source cell acquires the sending time information of a synchronous signal block of a target cell;
and step 3: the source cell sends a switching command to a user;
and 4, step 4: the user executes the switching, synchronizes to the new cell and sends a switching completion signal to the new cell;
and 5: after the network switching is completed, the user can perform data transmission with the target base station.
Preferably, the time synchronization wireless network is a system frame number aligned and frame boundary aligned wireless network.
Further, the time synchronization wireless network is composed of a 5G co-frequency networking, a 5G inter-frequency networking and an 5/4G inter-system networking.
Preferably, the time information comprises a synchronization signal block period and offset and a synchronization signal block duration.
Preferably, when the source cell sends the handover command to the user in step 3, it needs to determine whether a difference between a next synchronization signal block time of the destination cell and a current latest downlink time is greater than or equal to a preset time M.
Further, the preset time M is the maximum time consumption and a small amount of time margin for the switching command to be sent to the user side to analyze that the switching command starts to execute synchronization.
Further, if the difference is greater than or equal to the preset time M, a switching command is issued at the downlink time before the next synchronization signal block is subtracted from M.
Further, if the difference is smaller than the preset time M, the switching command is issued in the downlink before the next synchronization signal block is subtracted by M.
Preferably, the user performing handover comprises receiving a handover command and suspending a local data bearer.
Preferably, the alignment of the frame number and the frame boundary is realized by the source cell and the target cell through a GPS.
A method for reducing time synchronization wireless network switching time delay includes carrying out network switching preparation through a time synchronization wireless network, continuing to maintain data transmission with a source service base station, obtaining synchronous signal block sending time information of a target cell by a source cell, enabling time information to include synchronous signal block period and deviation and synchronous signal block duration, enabling the source cell to send a switching command to a user, enabling the user to be synchronized to a new cell, sending a switching completion signal to the new cell, carrying out switching execution by the user, enabling the user to receive the switching command and hang up local data bearing and synchronize to the new cell, enabling the user to carry out data transmission with the target base station after network switching is completed, and effectively reducing switching time delay of the time synchronization wireless network.
