Description

Method for improving success rate based on Xn interface and NR system
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a method for improving success rate based on an Xn interface and an NR system.
Background
The protocol of the 3GPP wireless NR system 38.331 defines BWP (BandWidth Part, which is a continuous BandWidth in a cell configuration frequency band and may be smaller than or equal to the cell BandWidth) configuration parameters, so as to flexibly configure the BWP where the UE operates in various bandwidths. The relevant protocol definition is shown in fig. 1.
The BWP bandwidth that the UE can operate is constrained by the UE capability, and the BWP bandwidth cannot be larger than the bandwidth indicated by the UE capability. The UE capability related parameters are defined in the 38.331 protocol as shown in fig. 2.
When UE initiates HANDOVER based on Xn interface, if bandwidth of each BWP configured by target cell is larger than maximum bandwidth supported by UE, then target cell can not allocate resource for UE, only reply HANDOVER PRERATION FAILURE message to source cell at Xn interface, and feedback HANDOVER fails.
The HANDOVER FAILURE message carries a Cause cell, which indicates the Cause of the HANDOVER FAILURE. However, no proper reason is defined in the Cause cell, so that the source cell can know that the handover failure is because the bandwidth of the target cell BWP exceeds the capability of the UE, and the subsequent source cell can select UEs with the same or worse bandwidth capability to initiate handover to the target cell, which all Cause handover failure because the target cell cannot allocate resources, thereby reducing the success rate of handover based on the Xn interface.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a method for improving success rate based on an Xn interface and an NR (noise ratio) system, so as to solve the problem of switching success rate reduction caused by switching failure because BWP (broadband over protocol) bandwidth of a target cell exceeds the maximum bandwidth supported by UE (user equipment) during switching based on the Xn interface in a 3GPP (third generation partnership project) wireless NR system.
The invention provides a method for improving the success rate based on an Xn interface, which comprises the following steps:
by optimally designing the Xn interface signaling, a new reason enumeration is added in a Cause cell of the 38.423 protocol: the UE does not support the BWP bandwidth, and the reason for feeding back the switching failure from the target cell to the source cell when switching based on the Xn interface is that the UE does not support each BWP bandwidth of the target cell.
Further, the UE does not support BWP bandwidths of the target cell means:
the UE supports a maximum bandwidth smaller than the bandwidth of each BWP of the target cell.
Further, when the value of the Cause cell acquired by the source cell in the HANDOVER permission message is that the UE does not support the BWP bandwidth, the maximum bandwidth of the UE that fails to HANDOVER is saved and used as the HANDOVER bandwidth threshold of the target cell, and when a HANDOVER target cell is subsequently selected for another UE, if the maximum bandwidth supported by the UE to be handed over is smaller than the HANDOVER bandwidth threshold of the HANDOVER target cell, the cell is not selected as the HANDOVER target cell.
Further, the process of switching the Xn interface by using the method includes the following steps:
s1, a source cell sends a HANDOVER REQUEST message to a target cell by taking the maximum cell bandwidth defined by a protocol as a HANDOVER bandwidth threshold, and initiates the HANDOVER based on an Xn interface;
s2, the target cell acquires the maximum bandwidth which can be supported by the UE in the cell from the UE capability information parameter of the HANDOVER REQUEST message, compares the maximum bandwidth with each BWP bandwidth of the cell one by one, if the bandwidth of all the BWPs is greater than the maximum bandwidth which can be supported by the UE, replies a HANDOVER allocation FAILURE message to the source cell, and the Cause cell in the HANDOVER FAILURE message fills in the bandwidth which cannot be supported by the UE;
s3, the source cell acquires that the Cause cell in the HANDOVER FAILURE message is that the UE does not support the BWP bandwidth, compares the HANDOVER bandwidth threshold of the target cell with the maximum bandwidth supported by the UE with the HANDOVER FAILURE, and updates the HANDOVER bandwidth threshold of the target cell to the maximum bandwidth supported by the UE if the maximum bandwidth supported by the UE is less than the current HANDOVER bandwidth threshold of the target cell;
s4, if the UE initiates the Xn interface switching, when selecting the switching target cell for the UE, comparing the maximum bandwidth supported by the UE with the switching bandwidth threshold of the candidate cell, if the maximum bandwidth supported by the UE is less than the switching bandwidth threshold, then not selecting the candidate cell as the switching target cell.
Further, the BWP bandwidth not supported by the UE is expressed in the Cause cell of the 38.423 protocol as:
BWP Bandwidth Not Supported by UE。
the invention also provides an NR system, which is used for carrying out the Xn interface switching-based process by adopting the method for improving the success rate of the Xn interface.
In summary, due to the adoption of the technical scheme, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
the invention can effectively reduce the times of switching failure caused by the mismatch of the maximum bandwidth supported by the UE and the BWP bandwidth of the target cell based on the Xn interface switching, and is favorable for improving the success rate of the Xn interface switching.
