Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to the cell mobile communication systems of a tool wireless base station and travelling carriage.This system comprises some sub-districts that are arranged in two or more different layers or the level, and travelling carriage connects and can switch to another from a sub-district.This system comprises and monitors and/or measure at least those not at the minimum signal parameter of the sub-district of top layer, and to a threshold value of each given at least above-mentioned signal parameter in above-mentioned sub-district.
This system also comprises device for switching between the above-mentioned different districts of control.
The invention still further relates to a kind of method of control handover in the cell mobile communication systems, the sub-district is arranged in two different levels or layer at least in this system.
This communication system comprises some usually by group base station into the net.Geographic area of each base station services is called as the sub-district.The geographic area can be described as to be defined by the radio transmission character around base station and the wireless base station.This system also comprises one or more travelling carriages, and when travelling carriage moved, mobile connection can switch to another from a sub-district, promptly so-called handover.Yet in this article,, select optimum sub-district very important when realizing handover, so some factors have been taken on important role because no matter be under home or under some unusual environment more or less.Therefore, it is very important managing the sub-district in only mode.
The state of the art explanation
The cell mobile communication systems that provides one to have suitable cell structure is provided, people did many trials.
A known system has adopted so-called " canopy " sub-district strategy.In the case, the different districts layer, promptly preferred layer or preferential layer are arranged according to the selection and the layout of wireless base station.Have the high-power base station of high antenna just to constitute so-called canopy sub-district, just and low power base station as the formation that is installed in street-level so-called " Microcell ", further those line up what is called " picocell " as being installed in indoor quilt.Two or three different cell layer are so just arranged.In the case, conventional cell selecting mechanism, the location is to undertake the mechanism that desired properties is provided.Yet, for reaching the not special-purpose logic of this purpose.Utilize so-called " canopy " sub-district be intended that by cross-over connection area of coverage cavity, reserve capacity is provided in call establishment and when the air interference tool rescue function etc., for conventional subzone network provides a safety net.Adopt the purpose (relevant) of Microcell to provide sufficient capacity, especially in high density traffic carrying capacity area with canopy sub-district or conventional sub-district.Be to guarantee call continuity and guarantee successful call establishment, the suitable sub-district of the systematic direction traffic carrying capacity of tool canopy sub-district in suitable layer.When the base station that belongs to different layers was provided with closely to each other, having the canopy sub-district did not but have the cell structure of special logic circuit just to work unsatisfactorily.Cell selecting mechanism, the location will cause some unnecessary handover, even can provide sufficient radio condition also to switch to the canopy sub-district from Microcell as Microcell.Fig. 1 has explained these, two Microcells under canopy sub-district shown in the figure.For mobile station MS 1, Microcell C
AHighest signal strength will be provided.So connection will be carried out in this sub-district.Mobile station MS 2 is in the wireless coverage of microcell base station BS1 and BS2.In this case, canopy sub-district Cu satisfies its requirement and Microcell C is provided
A, C
BThe covering of not accomplishing.Yet for mobile station MS 3, microcell base station BS2 can carry out connection on visible light and undoubtedly.However, same canopy cell base station BSu on visible light has higher signal strength signal intensity, so take over connection by it.Such as air interference and call setup when crowded, connection may unnecessarily be taken over by the canopy sub-district or support, also may usually be supported by not too suitable sub-district or take over.This will cause waste of capacity, thereby cause connection loss etc.In other words, not too suitably the holding time of resource will increase.And effectively frequency rule will be very difficult with effective hardware measurement.And the unnecessary height of handover number of times can cause switch burden heavy, and very important loosely connected danger.
In another known system, the different districts layer is endowed different priority, and is higher than the preference of switching because of some other radio network functions to the priority that the handover of canopy cell layer is endowed.Be endowed different priority with the interaction of some radio network functions.More high-risely be endowed higher priority in case air interference and call setup are congested etc.The transmission of interlayer is different by some like this, and the congested and low quality during anomalous event such as call setup (high BER, bit error rate) triggers.In the case, connection always is not directed in the most appropriate cell layer yet.And area of coverage cavity is not fully covered yet.
GB-A-2 242 806 has described a cellular system that comprises macrocell and Microcell.Be the unnecessary handover of avoiding returning again then from the macrocell to the Microcell, handover is often realized by macrocell layer.Only working as slave unit to the handover of lower level just can realize to having surpassed predetermined standard time with the link-quality of the relevant base station of following Microcell in exceeding the preset time interlude.Therefore, the switching from a Microcell to another Microcell will not take place.
So in the case, " mistake " resource also will be occupied to a great extent.
WO-A1-92/02105 discloses a cellular wireless system.Handover start-up system comprise determine travelling carriage to the device of distance between cell base station and measure signal intensity to determine the device in travelling carriage path.Utilize navigation system, utilize the signal characteristic on canned data and the estimated distance, determine that the position of travelling carriage in the Microcell scope is possible.This system also comprises the right device of this information of signal characteristic on memory location and this position, forms the current right device that comprises these parameters that move middle travelling carriage, and the device of relatively storing parameter and current parameter.Yet, in the case, also will take errant resource and cause the poor efficiency of the utilization of resources and the increase of loosely connected danger etc.
The present invention's general introduction

Detailed description of the present invention
Cellular communication system comprises a cell structure, here the sub-district with layered mode be arranged in two-layer at least on.
Fig. 2 shows a cell mobile communication systems very briefly, is gsm system at this.Fig. 2 only makes diagrammatic sketch to the simplicity of explanation reason, and the part of mobile cellular system is shown very briefly, and this surely not produces any restriction to the present invention.
Base station system BSS comprises several base stations transceiver station BTS, wherein one group of BTS is controlled by a base station controller BSC, several base stations controller BSC is by the mobile services switching centre MSC control of switching system SS, network of switching system controlling call turnover such as public switched telephone network PSTN, Public Land Mobile Nerwork PLMN, the PSPDN of PSPDN Packet Switched Public Data Network, circuit switched public data net work, integrated services digital network ISDN or any other network.
Switching center comprises that also one comprises the Visited Location Registor in Data Position zone, the ownership with user data, location register etc., but these and the present invention are irrelevant.OMC refers to the operation and maintenance center OMC of known way.The dotted line representative information transmits among the figure, and the solid line representative is called out and connected and the information transmission, also represents optional network specific digit under the situation of dotted line in square frame, optional or optional feature (SS's etc.).
According to the present invention for not introducing a threshold value at least in each sub-district of top layer.This is a feature that is used to provide the orderly fashion that interlayer transmits.Threshold value can be used for signal strength signal intensity or path loss or the two and have concurrently or be used for other any parameter, and this depends on the general switchover policy of system's (in other).These situations relevant with signal strength threshold are only described among the embodiment that is described below.But this does not also mean that restrictedly, if adopt path loss threshold value or another kind of threshold value or have both at the same time, is identical in essence.
Transmit up and down in the system of sub-district and all use threshold value.The threshold value of transmitting up and down according to preferential embodiment generally refers to a threshold value.But it may add and subtract the correction of hysteresis by moving direction.In normal conditions, upwards transmitting promptly, the condition from the lower level to the higher level is: if the sub-district that current service connects, be that the signal strength signal intensity that Serving cell is surveyed is lower than this sub-district threshold value (deducting hysteresis particularly), the adjacent cell collection that system will be fit to switch extends to more high score sub-district layer by layer.More high-rise sub-district has than working as anterior layer and any lower priority in low layer sub-district.Correspondingly downward transmission i.e. condition from the higher level to the lower level is: (add hysteresis particularly) if a signal strength signal intensity that measures than low stratification layer sub-district increases on that sub-district threshold value, it is concentrated that then this sub-district will be added into the adjacent cell that is fit to switching.That sub-district is than the priority height when anterior layer or more high-rise sub-district.
Cell structure can be called as layered cell structure like this.Positioning function is influenced by this also and revises.List basic ordering on the different districts level and form a basic sequencing table.This table comprises some candidates and table is organized according to different condition.Tissue may be managed by a form, such as providing as permanent exchange data.Candidate on the table is also classified, and this can further discuss below.
Next explain some notions.It serves as to sort to the sub-district in the basis that basic ordering refers to signal strength signal intensity and/or path loss criterion (or any other suitable parameter).The location refers to provide the most suitable process that is connected with measuring with parametric data.The output of position fixing process is to be used to the candidate list switching or distribute, and alarm refers to the condition of the urgent handover of needs.If Transfer Quality is too poor,,, (depending on the physical measurements values that is used for wireless connections), will alarm so if the standard of any other unusual wireless incident is spread too greatly or reached to the time if Timing Advance (TA) is too big.As for canopy sub-district notion, a sub-district can be defined as the canopy sub-district.The canopy sub-district is the sub-district that surrounds in the big subzone network of general networks.In any case the present invention is based on the floored community notion.
Usually for location algorithm base station controller BSC there are many different requirements.Location algorithm is defined as selection to sub-district and sub cell especially at this, comprises the common terminology of channel change in all types of sub-districts.Positioning function has been explained usually and has been comprised the functional of one of many functional components of location algorithm.Following handover often refers to the channel change of minizone.Next consider to measure parameter or amount.This tittle is monitored by the measurement mechanism of being carried in advising as GSM in MS travelling carriage (in the specific embodiments) with among the BTS.If adopt mobile assisted hand-off strategy MAHO, these amounts measured at mobile station MS or that monitor will be sent to BSC by the space so.The amount of measuring in base station transceiver or monitoring is transferred to BSC.Yet the mode of measurement or report measurement etc. that realizes depends on the concrete handover strategy of employing.In the special embodiment that a back will further be discussed, the measurement of being considered comprises the measurement of up link and downlink signal strength and up link and downlink signal quality.Just as what discussed, also have many other selections certainly.In same embodiment, the report amount refers to the amount of using in the MS travelling carriage.Report value passes to the BSC base station controller from MS by the space.The report of considering among the described embodiment comprises the next Timing Advance TA from BTS.Equally with any known system need filtering.Be necessary level and smooth change at random etc.This names a person for a particular job and no longer further discusses.
In one embodiment, with the same in some known systems, sub-district and sub cell are measured and will be carried out together in a circulation, and this will finish in the cycle and repeat in the cycle to end selection up to certain mechanism in time interval internal resistance at each SACCH at a SACCH (slow associated control channel) at least.This only constitutes in many other examples one.
As the more detailed discussion of back, cell selecting is based on the order in the sorted lists of setting up.Sorted lists is preferably in setting up according to given basic principle at first of circulation.By according to the different principle reorganization tabulation that depends on different criterions, can obtain final cell selecting, these criterions will further be discussed afterwards.Positioning function continuously monitors and measures wireless environment, and advises out optimal sub-district (and/or sub cell).
Based on some measured values and report value relatively, produce a candidate list.This candidate list comprises the sub-district by prioritizing.In a preferential embodiment, signal quality and Timing Advance also and signal strength measuring (comprising possible filter function) constantly monitored together and measured.The candidate list that has produced will be delivered to the calling procedure processor with a kind of known way and be used for channel allocation.General location is preset at relatively with according to the given candidate list that requires in advance and begins immediately after location algorithm starts.
In case the function of the processed candidate list of candidate list receives, just candidate is used for the trial of allocated channel according to the information in each candidate inlet.In trial, candidate is by their sequential testings in tabulation, and each candidate examination once.If the channel allocation to certain candidate has been failed (under at congested conditions), next candidate will be used to test next time in the tabulation, go down like this to be become the distribution of work or all candidates all to try unsuccessful up to channel.This is a general known process, and it can not break away from the modification of carrying out in the scope of the invention more or less certainly, and thoroughly exchanges by another process.
Especially and other radio network functions such as intra-cell change, cover-switching of bottom sub cell, extended area, directed retry, be assigned to another sub-district, the interaction of switching etc. of reporting to the police will discuss afterwards.This is even more important when various radio network functions propose the dissimilar times spent of doing simultaneously.Cell candidates relies on some factors and is put into different categories according to the present invention, relies on three factors in one embodiment, i.e. the order compared with Serving cell of layer and and the measurement parameter of threshold such as signal strength signal intensity (or path loss or similarly).Each combination from the measurement result of wireless network control function all is connected in the definite tabulation, and the priority of the candidate in so-called " hand-off canaidates tabulation " has been described in this tabulation.
Fig. 3 has explained the main flow process of position fixing process in the specific embodiment with usual way.Timing Advance TA report and measuring leaches in these several respects: a wherein bit error rate and other amount is examined etc. together; B carries out basic ordering, and this will discuss afterwards more up hill and dale; C realizes that the floored community rank measures, and promptly whether the sub-district is higher than/is lower than the mensuration of threshold value etc.
Relevant mensuration such as the back also has that d and other radio network functions such as emergency, covering/bottom are measured, measure in the sub-district.These so-called signs are introduced in the form and under the condition of may command or modification and constitute example.
Be the organizational process that relies on a and d afterwards, wherein formed a candidate list.Carry out afterwards with any known system or positioning flow in the same.
In specifically described embodiment, in the start-up course, the base station controller BSC module starts, and channel allocation starts and form is read into.Start and carry out when occurring over just locating individuals or sub-district activation, as in handover procedure, when switching when base station controller BSC receives from the thorough switching signal of MS (travelling carriage).With other together, the parameter layer, better/poorer, be higher than/be lower than threshold value and all be read.Start module and also comprise so-called CPH (calling procedure processor) process, its treatments B SC (base station controller) signaling, data structure is upgraded and is handled as parameters such as signal strength signal intensities, and reports to the location example that activates.Described process is meant a kind of simplified way, because the process of carrying out in the known cell mobile communication systems of the most steps in the process and the common canopy of tool sub-district is corresponding.As leach function and just carry out in a known way etc.At two examples setting up the priority form based on the hierarchy that comprises two and three levels respectively, will thoroughly discuss basic sequencer procedure below.
In position fixing process, measurement report can directly be looked after in position fixing process self or also can be placed in the buffering area.But preferably directly look after them.Measure in emergency, covering/bottom mensuration and the sub-district and all handle in the similar mode of a kind of to the known cellular system that comprises the canopy sub-district.And then after measuring in the sub-district is organizational process.These are different with known system, will further discuss afterwards and explanation.Organizational process may comprise a set-up procedure, tabulate afterwards and know mode and send with a kind of, and distribute the management of replying with arbitrarily suitably mode handle.
Organizational process may comprise four processes in one embodiment, wherein parameter is tabulated, as sub-district in the sorted lists such as the sub-district in signal strength signal intensity etc., sub-district during in the parameter tabulation tabulate to measured value in the sub-district, the cross-reference table had all been set up in the sub-district during in sub-district and the sorted lists tabulated to measured value in the sub-district during in the sorted lists tabulated to parameter in the sub-district.Next this process is second process, and wherein each sub-district in the sorted lists is divided according to three parameters, i.e. (as mentioned above):
The 1-layer
2-than Serving cell better or worse and
It is higher than or is lower than its threshold value 3-.Three-dimensional data structure is lined up in sub-district after this.Sorted lists is worth order in order by staircase.
Find the form inlet in any suitable mode of knowing usually.
Be particularly related to an embodiment, known canopy sub-district notion can be extended to layered cell structure.Can be used to cover the cavity of effective coverage, conventional sub-district like this.According to an embodiment (may comprise also and may not comprise the hysteresis threshold value or second threshold value), the conversion of conventional sub-district and " canopy " minizone is by threshold value (signal strength threshold I
Tr) and correction threshold, promptly according to hysteresis H
TrRevised signal strength threshold is controlled.In a specific embodiment, these parameters (first and second threshold values) are at conventional sub-district, and do not define at the sub-district that forms so-called " canopy ".In this concrete condition, this cause a basic sorted lists that comprises 7 classifications (with other together referring to Fig. 3).Among Fig. 4 a to Fig. 4 c this point is described.To 1 grade of sub-district (lowermost layer), be called conventional sub-district in this embodiment, signal strength signal intensity and threshold.For the embodiments described herein, " being higher than " means signal strength signal intensity I to Serving cell

The 6-intra-cell is changed.
(Table A)
Other condition is also possible certainly, has still less or more condition, and this is decided by concrete needs and specific requirement.Condition is true in " 1 " expression, for vacation is represented with " 0 ", and the usefulness "-" that also may have nothing to do at last expression.
This form also relates to different classes of.In the form that in Fig. 4 a-4c, illustrates:
S-refers to Serving cell,
Better sub-district in the 1bo-layer 1, SS (signal strength signal intensity) is higher than threshold value,
Better sub-district in the 1bu-layer 1, SS is lower than threshold value,

Poorer sub-district in the 1wu-layer 1, SS is lower than threshold value,
The better sub-district of 2b-layer 2,
The poorer sub-district of 2w-layer 2.
Table among Fig. 4 a has illustrated the Serving cell in layer 1 (routine), and wherein signal strength signal intensity is lower than threshold value.24 kinds of different situations have been described.Whether (Fig. 4 a-4c) relates to Serving cell in the table the signal strength signal intensity of the serving cell threshold of being higher or lower than (referring to Fig. 5 a-5e).
According to the index line that between the different networks function, has provided certain priority, form the form of Fig. 4.This priority is provided by following table, after this is called table B:
The conventional handover of 1-,
TA is urgent for the 2-Timing Advance,

(table B)
Among Fig. 4 b explanation of tables in the layer 1 Serving cell of (routine) and signal strength signal intensity surpass 24 kinds of situations of threshold value, among last Fig. 4 c explanation of tables 24 kinds of situations of Serving cell (relating to " canopy " sub-district this moment) in the layer 2.Especially, the different situations that certain situation are divided into the sub cell switch condition also are possible, but will no longer thoroughly discuss here.
The foregoing description relates to the situation with two cell layer or level.Certainly have more multi-layered.Next another embodiment will be described.Three different districts layers are arranged in this example.
Can be applied in canopy sub-district functional according to layered cell structure of the present invention.A canopy sub-district functional provides a second level in network, be included on the original cell network logically (with physically) to organize, as the huge sub-district of backup network.Introduced one the 3rd layer in the present embodiment, it logically (with physically) be arranged under the original cell network.And comprise little sub-district.This one-level forms micro cells networks in one embodiment.Here, the first order or lowermost level (level 1) or bottom are called as microstage, and the second level or middle rank are called as routine or original level, and the third level or top layer are called as the 3rd or more senior.The intention of usually distributing travelling carriage in layered cell structure all is to fill up lowermost level earlier, and promptly travelling carriage should be served by the sub-district in alap level or the layer, because this one-level especially possesses peak capacity.The result of Chan Shenging is like this, it seems from signal strength signal intensity or path loss viewpoint, and travelling carriage is always by the best cell service but by enough sub-districts good and in alap layer serving.
The present invention be more particularly directed to the processing method of form system shown in threshold value and Fig. 4, also further contemplate any other strategy that the given priority of table B is put forward in the change front.
The system that comprises form among Fig. 4 also considers the Different Strategies in the different layers.Such as by this way, traffic carrying capacity can be instructed random layer and is not only lowermost layer etc.
Certainly the present invention relates to equally and has more than two or three layers network, but because principle is identical irrelevant with the number of plies, comprises two and the network of three-decker so only describe more comprehensively here.
Not only can relate to canopy sub-district notion but also can relate to the sub-district in different layers or level usually according to layered cell structure of the present invention.By introducing signal strength threshold I

i TrThe lower level sub-district of (referring to preferential embodiment) all will be provided with the sign of representing more low layer conversion to allow, and this makes that this sub-district is first candidate in candidate list.If how such sub-district is arranged, they will adopt basic ranking results in self sorting so.If more high-rise conversion allows sign to be set up, the tissue of candidate list is generally undertaken by following: with layer or more high-rise in will become candidate than the better sub-district of Serving cell, with layer sub-district than a more high-rise sub-district priority height.Signal strength signal intensity is lower than the lower priority (if any) of sub-district tool that more high-rise conversion allows threshold value in above-mentioned " better " sub-district.More rudimentary sub-district, more senior sub-district priority height in last classification.This is can cause the fact to more high-rise transfer immediately owing to be lower than lower level sub-district that more high-rise conversion allows threshold value to a signal strength signal intensity.This will save twice unnecessary switching.If but the sign that emergency sign and the more high-rise conversion of indication allow is set up simultaneously, into candidate list also may be augmented in so relatively poor sub-district.The combination of candidate list is given by a form, and this table has been realized the priority principle considered previously.This table can be provided as permanent swap data, allows not change actual code and comes tuning algorithm.Yet in an optional embodiment, this table is not permanent but can be changed by order.Certainly under certain condition, as fast moving travelling carriage situation etc., to switch to the lower level sub-district be possible but generator stops.But also can further increase cell type, as indoor cell or picocell etc., also be possible.It is necessary introducing more multistage in the sorted lists of sub-district.
Can every BSC or every cell-level or every MSC level or every system-level threshold value and hysteresis parameter of being provided with.
Under the situation of three cell layer or level, basic ordering is set up on three cell-level.Candidate in the candidate list and the top the same classification of having discussed that is divided into, and report signal intensity, signal strength threshold and hysteresis and cell-level are used to the classification setting of adjacent cell.Equally, with already mentioned the same, not necessarily must be signal strength signal intensity, can also be path loss, signal strength signal intensity is with path loss or any other parameter easily.
Illustrate form among Fig. 5 a-5e, from these tables, formed that the front has been mentioned, about the candidate list of the embodiment that comprises two cell layer.In the sub-district of satisfying the minimum criteria that surpasses at least one given signal parameter threshold value, carry out basic ordering at first valuably.
Then carry out the grade of layering and measure, promptly carry out permutatation towards level.This means that candidate list is made up of the control of one or more forms.The example of this form is shown in Fig. 5 a-5e.Next these forms will make an explanation.TA refers to Timing Advance and AW refers to be assigned to relatively poor sub-district as mentioned above.In the table, the numeral layer promptly has three layers in the ratio, layer 1, layer 2 and layer 3, and its middle level 1 is a lowermost layer etc.
Better and worsely represent respectively with b and w, and o and u refer to respectively above and to be lower than threshold value also may be the situation that threshold value added or deducted hysteresis, this will see whether hysteresis is employed.If used hysteresis, will handle these by positioning function.
With the same among 2 layers of structure embodiment that relate to layering, form (Fig. 5 a-5e) comprises some conditions, that is:
The 1-request for allocation arrives and AW (being assigned to relatively poor sub-district) state,
The 2-request for allocation arrives and non-AW state,
The 3-Timing Advance is very urgent,
The 4-low quality is urgent
5-covering-bottom sub cell conversion request,
The 6-intra-cell is changed request,
7, the 8-layer, wherein 00 refers to lowermost layer, and 01 refers to the second layer, and 10 refer to the 3rd layer, and last 11 fingers are top,
The intrinsic cell signal strength of 9-is lower than threshold value,
10-does not use (but representing with 0 in this case).
This is called as table C after this.
Table 5a relates to layer and 1 is lower than, and promptly intrinsic sub-district (Serving cell) (condition 7 and 8) and signal strength signal intensity in lower level are lower than the threshold value (condition 9) of this sub-district.Express 32 kinds of different situations in the table.
Table 5b relates to layer and 1 is higher than, promptly intrinsic sub-district in lower level and signal strength signal intensity be higher than threshold value.
Table 5c relates to layer and 2 is lower than, promptly the second layer in this intrinsic sub-district in the second layer (placed in the middle in this example) and signal strength signal intensity be lower than this sub-district threshold value, i.e. I
2＜I
2 Tr
Table 5d relates to layer and 2 is higher than, i.e. the second layer and surpass the signal strength signal intensity (I of threshold value
2＞I
2 Tr).
Show 5e at last and relate to layer and 3 be higher than, 3 intrinsic sub-districts this moments of this presentation layer are in higher level and surpass the signal strength signal intensity of threshold value.Last threshold value is not examined.
To provide the interaction of layered cell structure and other network function in ensuing two object lessons.Whether given especially and other network function priority that interacts makes us all can obtain putting in order in the system priority table at form (as Fig. 4 and Fig. 5) during based on the priority between radio network functions.
In first example and the intra-cell interaction of changing function will be described as a specific embodiment.Two or more radio network functions may produce their effect simultaneously.In this example, intra-cell is changed the channel that function proposes in the sub-district and is changed, and while layered cell structure function is provided in the more high-rise or more switching of another sub-district in the low layer.In this specific embodiment, change more preferably (seeing Table B) than intra-cell to more high-rise switching.Yet intra-cell is changed such as the quality alarm and is switched more preferably.But certainly the quality alarm is switched also and may be finally to be changed etc. more preferably than intra-cell.This depends on the concrete needs and the requirement of system.
When the measurements of neighboring cells value of coming from travelling carriage is received, according to comprehensively respective cell being sorted out of three parameters, that is:
The level of their affiliated layerings of 1-,
2-is according to common location criterion, and is better or poor than Serving cell according to them, their order, and last
The 3-measure signal intensity is higher than or is lower than the threshold value of this sub-district.
In this example,, can obtain 12 classifications if adopt three hierarchies of layer.
General institute might situation reaches the situation relevant with various wireless network control functional examinations and makes up and all analyzed.On this, unique cell categories sequence has been stipulated in specific measurement result combination.The ordering of classification can be abideed by given priority list, as providing among the table B, carries out.This sequence or candidate list are single, explain as top, and representative is by the handoff candidate person tabulation of specific priority.Fig. 6 has explained that further how prioritized in tabulation the different districts classification is, in 6,7,8 situations among Fig. 4 a.Two classifications of 2bo and 2bu are formed a classification 2b among Fig. 4 a.To corresponding being incorporated into of 2w is 2wo and 2wu together.O/u among Fig. 6 (being higher than/be lower than) refers to adjacent cell I
iSignal strength signal intensity be higher than/be lower than the threshold value I of that adjacent cell (or candidate)
i TrThe reason of Fen Liing is for fear of unnecessary switching ping-pong (go downwards to earlier have to immediately then in the layer and be up in the higher level) like this.
The example of considering below, wherein structure comprises that two cell layer and Serving cell are at lower level.Suppose that except that the routine location, wireless network is measured and also proposed three operations simultaneously, i.e. higher hierarchical level and covering-bottom sub cell conversion are switched, are switched in low quality alarm.In this case, switching to the higher hierarchical level has limit priority, and low quality alarm switching has lowest priority.The highest in all priority is to remain on lower level, is promptly switched by the conventional better sub-district of conventional positioning starting.By the combination of this measurement result, can obtain handoff candidate person's as shown in Figure 6 candidate list.At first positioning function is finished ordering, wherein the sub-district be represented as better or poor than Serving cell, the person that then sets up handoff candidate tabulation.As mentioned above, be higher than/be lower than the threshold value that threshold value refers to that specific cell.According to this tabulation, limit priority is to stay in the lower level but only when better sub-district occurring, this is illustrated in first row.Second priority is to be up to higher level, shown in the 2nd, 3 row among Fig. 6.If can cause being up to immediately higher level or " canopy " sub-district to a better sub-district, this is the situation when the signal strength signal intensity of that sub-district is lower than threshold value, switching so for the first time can not take place but be directly switch to higher sub-district or " canopy ", shown in the 1st and 4 row.The 3rd priority is to finish the sub cell conversion shown in the 5th row.At last, lowest priority is to connect the also low sub-district of ordering, sub-district to one than current service.In this case, the lower level sub-district is also preferential than higher level sub-district, if but just can then to take place to the switching second time of higher level be not so, shown in the 6th to 8 row of Fig. 6.
Preferential embodiment invention is used for TDMA (time division multiple access) or FHMA (Frequency Hopping Multiple Access FHMA) or CDMA (code division multiple access).And the present invention is not limited to any concrete switchover policy, but can adopt some Different Strategies, as mobile assisted hand-off strategy MAHO, network control handover NCHO or mobile control handover MCHO.
According to the present invention, Systematization method might be applied to design on the layered cell structure.Certainly can design the layer of arbitrary number, the actual conditions that interlayer switches can be controlled according to the criterion of layer transition, just with the same with the concrete interaction of other wireless network control function.
According to the common foreseeable fact of interlayer transmission, systematization plot planning and measurement are possible.And may instruct travelling carriage to arrive lowermost layer wittingly, and state as the front, like this can be for covering saving higher level capacity such as ditch hole or call setup crowd.At last, also may instruct travelling carriage to arrive any optional layer.
According to the present invention, the purpose of one of them be can guide service amount to the measured in fact sub-district of network or the HCS of hierarchical cellular system, and the function that can guarantee have vacant capacity when call setup, to provide reserve capacity in those sub-districts and possess the rescue sub-district.
Sub-district in the higher level has when covering cavity and air interference preferentially to guarantee call continuity.For guaranteeing that successful call sets up process, the sub-district when call setup is crowded in the higher level also has preferentially.
The present invention is not limited only to illustrated embodiment certainly, but can be changed in a number of ways in the claim scope.
The present invention especially can be applicable to the general standard that people all know, as GSM, PDC, and all PCS standards, IS54, IS90, ADC, (D-) AMPS, DECT etc.
