Technical Field

The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a detection method, apparatus, device, and computer storage medium.

Background

Narrowband internet of things (NB-IoT) terminals are relatively sensitive to traffic delay/success rate, and power consumption. Taking the service of a shared bicycle as an example, the remote unlocking operation can be completed within a certain time, and part of shared bicycles are powered by batteries, so that the requirement on power consumption is extremely high. Besides the influence of the network environment where the terminal is located, the network parameter configuration also affects the delay and the power consumption of the terminal, but a common service terminal or a sweep terminal generally does not output or display the network parameter configuration, a professional is required to use a professional tool to extract logs (logs), and send relevant test logs back to research and development and check relevant signaling, a long time response is required, and for a common user, the problem of parameters affecting the delay or the power consumption is difficult to judge and analyze without knowing the detailed communication flow of NB-IoT.

The embodiment of the invention provides a detection method, which is applied to a terminal. FIG. 2 is a flow chart of a detection method according to an embodiment of the invention; as shown in fig. 2, the method includes:

step 101: the terminal obtains detection parameters, analyzes the detection parameters, and obtains analysis results related to the detection parameters; the analysis results comprise a first type of analysis results related to the time delay characteristic and/or a second type of analysis results related to the power consumption characteristic;

Step 102: and sending the analysis result to a server.

In embodiments of the present invention, it has been found that, for the delay characteristics of the terminal, the influencing parameters may include at least one of the following:

1. from the perspective of parameter configuration, for uplink service, the size of the NPRACH period affects access delay; for downlink traffic, the DRX cycle and NPRACH cycle can affect paging and access delays; for connection state service, an SR prohibit timer (SR-prohibit timer) affects the SR delay of connection state transmission;

2. from a coverage perspective, an RSRP Threshold (RSRP Threshold) will affect the coverage level at which the terminal is located, the number of repetitions at access, etc.;

3. from the aspect of the capacity, the utilization rate of the carrier also affects the service time delay, and when the utilization rate of the carrier is higher than a certain degree, the problems of low success rate of user access or prolonged time and the like can occur;

4. from an interference perspective, uplink interference affects traffic delay.

For the power consumption characteristics of the terminal, the influencing parameters may comprise at least one of:

1. whether the RAI function is started or not can influence the time for the terminal to return to the idle state and influence the power consumption of the terminal.

2. The time setting of the inactivity timer can affect the time for the terminal to return to the idle state and affect the power consumption of the terminal.

In the embodiment of the invention, at least one parameter is detected and analyzed to obtain the analysis result related to each parameter.

In some optional embodiments of the invention, the terminal obtains detection parameters, including: the terminal receives the message broadcast by the base station and/or the information transmitted through the dedicated channel, and obtains the detection parameters based on the message and/or the information.

In this embodiment, for the first type of parameter related to the above-mentioned delay characteristic, the detection parameter may be obtained by receiving a message broadcast by the base station and/or information transmitted through a dedicated channel, based on the message and/or the information.

In some alternative embodiments, the terminal receives a message broadcast by a base station and/or information transmitted through a dedicated channel, and obtains the detection parameter based on the message and/or the information, including: the terminal receives a broadcast message sent by a base station, wherein the broadcast message comprises at least one of the following parameters: NPRACH period, DRX period, RSRP threshold; and/or the terminal receives a first message sent by the base station in the random access process, and obtains an SR prohibit timer period based on the first message.

In some optional embodiments of the present invention, the analyzing the detection parameter to obtain an analysis result related to the detection parameter includes: and the terminal compares the detection parameters with threshold values corresponding to the detection parameters, and obtains an analysis result according to the comparison result.

In this embodiment, after the terminal obtains the detection parameters, by comparing the detection parameters with the threshold values corresponding to the detection parameters, whether the configuration of the detection parameters is reasonable or not can be determined according to the comparison result, so as to obtain an analysis result.

As an example, fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart of a method for obtaining a detection parameter in a detection method according to an embodiment of the present invention; as shown in fig. 3, the obtaining of the detection parameters may include the steps of:

step 201: and the terminal receives the broadcast message sent by the base station.

The broadcast message illustratively includes narrowband system information block 2 (SIB 2-NB), carrying dedicated configuration information, such as at least one of NPRACH period, DRX period, and RSRP threshold.

The terminal obtains the NPRACH period and the DRX period from the broadcast message (SIB 2-NB). For example, the NPRACH period may be obtained by reading the NPRACH-Periodicity-r13 field in the broadcast message (SIB 2-NB), the DRX period may be obtained by reading the defaultPagingCycle-r13 field in the broadcast message (SIB 2-NB), and the RSRP threshold may be obtained by reading the RSRP-ThresholdsPrachInfoList-r13 field in the broadcast message (SIB 2-NB).

Step 202: the base station initiates Paging (Paging).

Step 203 to step 206: the terminal initiates a random access procedure.

Illustratively, the terminal sends a Preamble sequence (Preamble) for random access to the base station, the base station sends a message 2 (Msg 2) to the terminal, and the Msg2 may be a MAC scheduling grant; the terminal sends a message 3 (Msg 3) to the base station, and the specific Msg3 may be a radio resource control (RRC, radio Resource Control) connection request; the base station sends a message 4 (Msg 4) to the terminal, and the specific Msg4 may be RRC connection establishment.

In this example, msg4 may optionally carry an SR-inhibit field and an SR-inhibit Timer period field. If the SR-inhibit field is not configured in the Msg4, the SR-inhibit timer period field is not carried in the Msg4, which indicates that the SR-inhibit is not configured. If the SR-inhibit field is configured in the Msg4 and the corresponding value is true, the Msg4 carries an SR-inhibit timer period field, and the corresponding value of the field is the SR-inhibit timer period.

Step 207: the terminal sends a message 5 (Msg 5) to the base station. For example, message 5 (Msg 5) may be RRC connection setup complete.

Up to this point, an RRC connection (RRC connection) is established between the terminal and the base station.

Step 208 to step 209, the terminal transmits a scheduling request (SR, scheduling Request) to the base station. The SRs of step 208 and step 209 are transmitted according to the SR-inhibit timer period, that is, the two SRs are separated by the SR-inhibit timer period.

In some alternative embodiments, the detection parameters include a first type of parameter; the first type of parameters includes at least one of the following: NPRACH period, DRX period, SR prohibit timer period; the terminal compares the parameter with a threshold corresponding to the parameter, and obtains the corresponding analysis result according to the comparison result, wherein the analysis result comprises at least one of the following steps:

In this embodiment, in some examples, after the terminal obtains the NPRACH period, the NPRACH period is respectively compared with a first upper threshold (e.g., denoted as NPRACH _up ) And/or a first lower threshold (e.g., denoted as NPRACH _down ) A comparison is made. If the current NPRACH period is greater than the first threshold upper limit (NPRACH _up ) A first type of analysis result which indicates that the NPRACH period is overlong can be obtained, and the access time delay is affected when the NPRACH period is overlong; if the current NPRACH period is less than the first threshold lower limit (NPRACH _down ) A first type of analysis result can be obtained that represents an NPRACH period that is too short, which affects capacity.

A plurality of coverage Classes (CEs) are currently defined, different CEs corresponding to different communication qualities. Taking coverage levels CE0, CE1 and CE2 as examples, CE0 has the best communication quality. Alternatively, considering that the communication quality or coverage of CE1 and CE2 has been deteriorated, the NPRACH period may be acquired near the case of CE0 and analyzed and compared.

In other examples, after the terminal obtains the DRX period, the DRX period is respectively compared with a second upper threshold (e.g., denoted as DRX _up ) And/or a second lower threshold (e.g., denoted as DRX _down ) A comparison is made. If the current DRX cycle is greater than the second upper threshold (DRX) _up ) A first type of analysis result indicating that the DRX period is too long can be obtained, and the paging delay is affected if the DRX period is too long; if the current DRX cycle is less than the second lower threshold (DRX) _down ) A first type of analysis result is obtained that indicates that the DRX cycle is too short, which affects capacity.

In still other examples, after the terminal obtains an SR prohibit timer (SR-prohibit timer) period, the SR-prohibit timer period is respectively associated with a third upper threshold (e.g., denoted as SR-prohibit timer) _up ) And/or a third lower threshold (e.g., referred to as SR-ProhibiTimer) _down ) A comparison is made. If the current SR-inhibit timer period is greater than the third threshold upper limit (SR-inhibit timer) _up ) A first type of analysis result showing that the SR-ProhibiTimer period is too long can be obtained, and the SR-ProhibiTimer period affects the connection state service time delay; if the current SR-inhibit timer period is less than the third threshold lower limit (SR-inhibit timer) _down ) A first type of analysis result is obtained that indicates that the SR-inhibit timer period is too short, which may cause cell congestion.

In some optional embodiments, the values of the first upper threshold and the first lower threshold corresponding to the NPRACH period are related to a switching or reselection frequency of the PCI of the terminal; the values of the second threshold upper limit and the second threshold lower limit corresponding to the DRX period are related to the service model of the terminal and/or the paging frequency of the terminal; and the values of the upper and lower thresholds corresponding to the SR prohibition timer period are related to the service model of the terminal and/or the frequency of the terminal sending the scheduling request.

In the present embodiment, as an example, the first threshold upper limit (NPRACH) corresponding to the NPRACH period _up ) And a first lower threshold (NPRACH) _down ) The value of (2) can be set according to the switching or reselection frequency of PCI. If the terminal frequently reselects to a new PCI within a certain time, it can be inferred that the terminal is a mobile type terminalThe access of NPRACH is required to be continuously initiated in a new cell, and at the moment, the upper threshold limit and the lower threshold limit of the NPRACH period should be properly adjusted down, so that the terminal of the fast moving class can reselect and access the current cell more quickly when the cell network environment is poor, and the service success rate is improved. Optionally, the NPRACH period threshold (i.e., the first threshold lower limit) is now compared with the current network NPRACH period.

If the terminal is reselected back and forth between one PCI (or two PCIs, the terminal at the boundary of two cells may reselect back and forth), it is inferred that the terminal is a static terminal, and most of the scenes of the terminal reside in the same cell, and the NPRACH period only affects the service access delay, but the service long-time terminal cannot be caused by the NPRACH period too long, and the service capacity can be affected by the too short NPRACH period. Optionally, the NPRACH period threshold (i.e., the first threshold upper limit) is now higher than the current network NPRACH period.

As another example, the second threshold upper limit (DRX) corresponding to the above DRX cycle _up ) And a second lower threshold (DRX) _down ) The value of (2) may be set according to the traffic model of the terminal and/or the Paging (Paging) frequency of the terminal. If the terminal frequently receives Paging messages in a certain time and/or the terminal service model mainly uses downlink service, the terminal is sensitive to the DRX period, the DRX period can influence downlink service time delay, and at the moment, the upper threshold limit and the lower threshold limit of the DRX period should be properly adjusted down so as to reduce the downlink service time delay. Optionally, the current network DRX cycle is compared at this time with a lower DRX cycle threshold (i.e., a second threshold lower bound).

If the terminal hardly receives the Paging message in a certain time and/or the service model of the terminal is mainly uplink service, the influence of the terminal on the DRX period is hardly perceived, the DRX period does not influence the uplink service initiation and the time delay, and at the moment, the upper threshold limit and the lower threshold limit of the DRX period are appropriately adjusted to avoid influencing the cell capacity. Optionally, the higher DRX cycle threshold (i.e., the second threshold lower bound) is compared to the current network DRX cycle at this time.

As yet another example, the above SR-ProhibThird threshold upper limit (SR-ProhibiTimer) corresponding to itTimer period _up ) And a third lower threshold (SR-Prohibittmer) _down ) The value of (2) may be set according to the traffic model of the terminal and/or the frequency at which the terminal sends Scheduling Requests (SRs). If the terminal frequently sends the SR within a certain time and/or the service model of the terminal indicates that small packets can be continuously sent, the terminal can be inferred to be sensitive to the SR-inhibit timer period, the SR-inhibit timer period can influence the time delay of sending the SR each time, and the upper threshold limit and the lower threshold limit of the SR-inhibit timer period at the moment should be properly adjusted down so as to reduce the time delay waiting for sending the SR, thereby reducing the service time delay. Optionally, the SR-probit timer period threshold (third threshold lower limit) is compared with the current network SR-probit timer period at this time.

If the terminal can hardly initiate the SR again within a certain time and/or the service model of the terminal indicates discontinuous packet sending, the terminal can be inferred to be insensitive to the SR-ProhibiTimer period, and the setting of the SR-ProhibiTimer period has less influence on the service delay. At this time, the upper and lower thresholds of the SR-inhibit timer period should be appropriately set high. Optionally, the SR-probit timer period threshold (third threshold upper limit) is compared with the current network SR-probit timer period.

That is, in this embodiment, the terminal may set the upper threshold limit and the lower threshold limit corresponding to each parameter according to the above conditions or rules, and record the upper threshold limit and the lower threshold limit.

In some alternative embodiments, the first class of parameters further includes an RSRP threshold; the terminal compares the detection parameters with threshold values corresponding to the detection parameters, obtains analysis results according to the comparison results, and comprises the following steps: and the terminal compares the measured RSRP with the RSRP threshold to obtain the first type analysis result which represents the coverage level corresponding to the terminal.

In this embodiment, the RSRP threshold may be used to determine the coverage level corresponding to the terminal. The coverage level is related to the communication quality or coverage of the terminal, and implicitly to the time delay characteristic, so that the determined coverage level is reported to the server as a first class classification result.

In some alternative embodiments, the detection parameters include a second type of parameter; the second type of parameters include: a first parameter indicating whether the RAI function is in effect; the terminal receives a message broadcast by a base station and/or information transmitted through a dedicated channel, obtains the detection parameters based on the message and/or the information, and comprises the following steps: when the terminal supports the RAI function, the terminal receives a first RRC message sent by the base station, and determines whether the RAI function is configured according to whether a first field is configured in the first RRC message and according to the value of the first field when the first field is configured;

under the condition that the RAI function is configured, the terminal receives a second RRC message carrying a first time difference sent by a base station, and determines the first parameter according to the second time difference; the second time difference is determined by the base station according to the time of the last data packet sent by the terminal and the time of the base station sending the second RRC message.

In this embodiment, the second type of parameter may be a parameter related to a power consumption characteristic. Illustratively, the second type of parameter may include one of: a first parameter indicating whether the RAI function is configured, an inactivity timer delay.

As an example, fig. 4 is a second flowchart of a method for obtaining a detection parameter in the detection method according to the embodiment of the present invention; as shown in fig. 4, the method for obtaining the first parameter may include the following steps:

step 301: a User Equipment (UE) (or terminal) transmits UE capability information to a base station; wherein, the UE capability information may include capability information of the UE supporting RAI.

Illustratively, the terminal initiates the Attach procedure. For example, the terminal sends a message to the base station, where the message may include a UE-Capability-NB field that indicates Capability information of the terminal, where the UE-Capability-NB field may include a RAI-Support-r14 subfield, and if the RAI-Support-r14 subfield is configured as supported, the UE supports RAI. If the RAI-Support-r14 subfield is not configured, or if the RAI-Support-r14 subfield is not configured as supported, it may indicate that the terminal does not Support RAI. The embodiment is executed under the condition that the terminal supports RAI; if the terminal does not support RAI, the following procedure is terminated.

Step 302: and when the UE is in an RRC Idle state (RRC Idle), sending an RRC connection request to the base station.

Step 303 to step 304: the base station retrieving UE information to a mobility management entity (MME, mobility Management Entity); MME sends UE information to base station.

Step 305: the UE receives an RRC connection setup message (RRCConnectionSetup-NB) sent by the base station.

Here, the RRC connection setup message corresponds to the first RRC message described above.

The RRC connection setup message may include a rai-Activation-r14 field (corresponding to the first field described above). If the field is not configured in the RRC connection setup message, the RAI function is not configured; if the field is configured in the RRC connection setup message and the value of the field is "true", it may indicate that the RAI function is configured, but whether it is valid is checked further.

Step 306: the UE sends an RRC connection setup complete message to the base station.

Up-link (UL)/down-link (DL) data transmission can be performed between the UE and the core network.

Step 307: the UE sends the last packet to the base station, i.e. corresponds to reporting the buffer status report (BSR, buffer Status Report) =0.

Step 308: and the terminal receives the RRC connection release message sent by the base station.

In this example, the manner in which the terminal determines the first parameter may include two types of:

the first way is: the terminal records the first time of transmitting the last data packet, records the second time of receiving the RRC connection release message (namely the second RRC message) transmitted by the base station, and takes the first time difference as a first parameter by calculating the time difference (marked as the first time difference) between the first time and the second time.

The second way is: after the base station receives the last data packet sent by the terminal, the base station records the third time of receiving the last data packet, determines the fourth time of sending the RRC connection release message (namely the second RRC message) to the terminal by the base station, and sends the RRC connection release message (namely the second RRC message) to the terminal by calculating the time difference (marked as the first time difference) between the third time and the fourth time.

In some alternative embodiments, the detection parameters include a second type of parameter; the second class of parameters includes inactivity timer delay; the obtaining the detection parameter based on the message and/or the information includes: the terminal receives a third RRC message sent by a base station, determines a second time difference according to the time of the last sent data packet and the time of receiving the third RRC message, and determines the time delay of the inactivity timer according to the second time difference; or the terminal receives a third RRC message carrying a second time difference sent by the base station, and determines the time delay of the inactivity timer according to the second time difference; the second time difference is determined by the base station according to the received time of the last data packet sent by the terminal and the time of the base station sending the third RRC message.

As an example, fig. 5 is a flowchart of a method for obtaining a detection parameter in the detection method according to the embodiment of the present invention; as shown in fig. 5, the method for obtaining the time delay of the inactivity timer may include the following steps:

step 401: in case the terminal is in an RRC Connected state (RRC Connected), the terminal transmits a data packet to the base station until the last data packet is transmitted.

Alternatively, the present example may be applied to a scenario where the terminal is well covered, e.g. CE0.

Step 402: the terminal receives an RRC Release message sent by the base station.

The RRC Release (RRC Release) message corresponds to the fourth RRC message.

Alternatively, the present example may be performed in the event that the terminal RAI function is not in effect.

Here, as one way, the terminal may record a fifth time of transmitting the last data packet and record a sixth time of receiving an RRC Release (RRC Release) message, and calculate a time difference (denoted as a second time difference) between the fifth time and the sixth time, and use the second time difference as the inactivity timer delay.

Alternatively, after the base station receives the last data packet sent by the terminal, the base station records a seventh time when the last data packet is received, determines an eighth time when the base station sends an RRC release message (i.e., the third RRC message) to the terminal, and calculates a time difference (denoted as a second time difference) between the seventh time and the eighth time, so as to send the second time difference to the terminal in the RRC release message (i.e., the third RRC message).

In some alternative embodiments, the second type of parameter includes at least one of: a first parameter indicating whether the RAI function is in effect, an inactivity timer delay; the terminal compares the detection parameters with threshold values corresponding to the detection parameters, and obtains analysis results according to the comparison results, wherein the analysis results comprise at least one of the following steps:

the terminal compares the first parameter with a fourth threshold upper limit and/or a fourth threshold lower limit corresponding to the first parameter, and if the first parameter is greater than the fourth threshold upper limit, a second type analysis result which indicates that the RAI function is configured but not effective can be obtained; obtaining a second type of analysis result representing that the RAI function is configured and validated when the first parameter is smaller than a fourth threshold lower limit;

In this embodiment, in some examples, after the terminal obtains the first parameter (indicating whether the RAI function is in effect), the first parameter (e.g., the first time difference or the second time difference) is compared with the fourth upper threshold and/or the fourth lower threshold, respectively. If the current first parameter is greater than the fourth threshold upper limit, the base station can indicate that the RRC connection of the terminal is not released immediately, and a second type analysis result which indicates that the RAI function is configured but not effective is obtained; the RAI function is configured but not validated, and can output advice information of 'network problem to be detected'. If the current first parameter is smaller than the fourth threshold lower limit, the base station can indicate that the RRC connection of the terminal is released immediately, and a second type analysis result which indicates that the RAI function is configured and effective is obtained; the RAI function is configured and validated, and may output a recommendation message "quick release to idle".

Wherein the terminal may obtain the above-mentioned fourth threshold upper limit and fourth threshold lower limit in advance. Alternatively, the terminal may determine the fourth upper threshold limit and the fourth lower threshold limit locally, or may also configure the fourth upper threshold limit and the fourth lower threshold limit by the network management device.

In other examples, after the terminal obtains the inactivity timer delay, the inactivity timer delay is compared to a fifth upper threshold and/or a fifth lower threshold, respectively. If the time delay of the current inactivity timer is greater than the upper limit of the fifth threshold, a second type of analysis result indicating that the time delay of the inactivity timer is too long can be obtained; the inactivity timer is too long in time delay, and power consumption of the terminal is affected. If the time delay of the current inactivity timer is smaller than the upper limit of the fifth threshold, a second type of analysis result indicating that the time delay of the inactivity timer is too short can be obtained; su Song the inactivity timer delay is too short, the terminal may be required to initiate the RRC connection frequently.

The embodiment of the invention also provides a detection method, which is applied to the server. FIG. 6 is a second flow chart of the detection method according to the embodiment of the invention; as shown in fig. 6, the method includes:

step 501: the server receives detection information sent by the network management equipment and receives an analysis result sent by the terminal; the analysis results comprise a first type of analysis results related to the time delay characteristic and/or a second type of analysis results related to the power consumption characteristic; the detection information comprises detection parameters;

step 502: verifying the analysis result based on the detection information, and determining a target parameter and a target value corresponding to the target parameter according to the verification result; the target parameters are detection parameters of which the parameter configuration rationality does not meet the requirements;

step 503: and sending a first instruction to the network management equipment, wherein the first instruction comprises the target parameter and the target value.

In this embodiment, in order to determine whether the analysis result sent by the terminal is correct, that is, whether the rationality judgment of the terminal on each detection parameter is correct, the server may verify the report result sent by the terminal based on the detection information (including the detection parameter) sent by the network device, specifically may re-analyze each detection parameter based on the analysis mode of the terminal on each detection parameter in the above embodiment, compare the analysis result with the analysis result reported by the terminal, and if the comparison is consistent, indicate that the verification is passed; if the comparison is inconsistent, the verification is not passed.

In this embodiment, when the RRC connection success rate is higher than a certain value (e.g., higher than 99%), the server preferentially processes the analysis result reported by the terminal, performs secondary verification on each detection parameter according to a threshold value obtained in advance, and issues the parameters with unreasonable configuration (i.e., the target parameters) and the corresponding suggested values to the network management device, where the network management device reconfigures the parameters of the base station.

In some optional embodiments of the invention, the detection information further includes RRC connection success rate and total number of users; the first type of analysis results also include coverage levels; the method further comprises the steps of: under the condition that the RRC connection success rate is lower than a seventh threshold, the server obtains a coverage grade (CE) corresponding to each terminal based on the first type analysis result sent by each terminal, counts the first user number in CE2, and determines the user ratio in CE2 based on the first user number and the total user number; and when the user duty ratio exceeds an eighth threshold, the server sends a second instruction representing a warning to the network management equipment, wherein the second instruction is used for indicating to enlarge coverage.

The seventh threshold value and the sixth threshold value may be the same value or different values.

In this embodiment, when the RRC connection success rate is lower than a certain value (e.g., lower than 99%), the server counts the coverage level reported by each terminal, counts the number of RRC access users (denoted as the first number of users) in CE2, and comprehensively determines the user duty ratio of CE 2; when the duty ratio of the CE2 exceeds a certain ratio (such as an eighth threshold), the server issues a warning instruction to the network manager to expand coverage.

In this embodiment, the server checks the carrier utilization rate and/or the number of users, and if the carrier utilization rate is higher than a certain value (e.g., a ninth threshold, for example, 60%), and/or the number of users reaches a certain threshold (e.g., a tenth threshold), the server sends an instruction to the network management device, and the carrier is indicated to be increased to expand by the instruction.

In some optional embodiments of the present invention, the detection information further includes uplink interference information; the method further comprises the steps of: and under the condition that the uplink interference information indicates that the uplink interference rising value is higher than an eleventh threshold value, the server sends a fourth instruction to the network management equipment, wherein the fourth instruction is used for improving the RSRP threshold.

In this embodiment, the server checks the uplink interference value, if the uplink interference lifting value is a certain value (such as the eleventh threshold), and the terminal is extended during testing, and the RSRP threshold is a noise-free lifting value, the server sends an instruction to the network management platform, where the instruction is used to instruct to lift the RSRP threshold, and the lifting value of the RSRP threshold can be determined according to the difference between the current interference noise-free value and the noise-free value.
