Fig. 2 is the module combinations figure of the each several part of analogue system of the present invention;
Fig. 3 is the process chart that the present invention sends message;
Fig. 4 is the process chart that the present invention receives message;
The structure of base station side business imitating of the present invention system as described above, system assumption diagram and functional structure chart are respectively referring to Fig. 1, Fig. 2.Need to prove: the part that frame of broken lines comprised among Fig. 1 is exactly whole A interface business flow process analogue system, and described analogue system and respective switch carry out the communication of message by the Signaling System Number 7 net.The main modular of Fig. 2 for comprising in the simulation client computer among Fig. 1, emulating server, the simulation foreground.
In analogue system, be one-to-one relationship between simulation client computer and the MSC.Corresponding MSC, each simulation client computer is simulated the signaling process of the travelling carriage in certain index range.Travelling carriage is handled as an object in system, and each object has data and the action of oneself.
Data division comprises the travelling carriage characteristic and some required information of client program in signaling process simulation process process.The former mainly refers to some intrinsic informations of travelling carriage itself, as IMSI, MIN, ESN, mobile subscriber number, called number etc., owing to they generally remain unchanged in the flowsheeting process, so be stored in the mobile station data storehouse.And state information and the simulation program information that need write down of travelling carriage in simulation process normally changes in simulation process, so leave in the mobile station data district of appointment.For the data in mobile station data storehouse and the data field, the operator can inquire about and revise by the man-machine interface on the simulation client computer.
The major function of travelling carriage action is to utilize the mobile station data structure of storing in database or the data field to meet the various message of A interface standard, and carries out the transmitting-receiving of message and relevant processing.
For the operation flow that has nothing to do with the user, as the land circuit management, need not to consider the processing of travelling carriage, only need the operation of control operation flow to get final product.And for other operation flows relevant with travelling carriage, as mobile management, calling, switching, short message etc., its type of message, parameter, timer etc. all have bigger flexibility.For this reason, the processing of operation flow is that the transmitting-receiving of message and relevant processing are controlled by the message chained list in the system.
The message chained list is a doubly linked list, the corresponding signaling process of each message chained list.Each nodes records in the message chained list feature of an A interface message, as waiting for information such as duration, reception/transmission, message name, last node pointer, back one node pointer.In order to realize the signaling process of miscellaneous service neatly, analogue system has adopted the method by flow process script file dynamic generation of message chained list.The basic composition of flow process script file is as follows: begin indication signaling flow process begins
>Bmsg1>representative sends indication, Bmsg1 message name (being generally the another name of definition) T1<Mmsg1 T1 represents that timer duration is 1 millisecond,<receiving indication, Mmsg1 message name>Bmsg2 Bmsg2 is that message name T2<Mmsg2 Mmsg2 is that message name>Bmsg3 Bmsg3 is that message name end indication signaling flow process finishes
The corresponding a piece of news of each row in the flow process script file, respectively by timer duration, transmissions/receptions indicated, message name 3 parts composition.The flow process script file is that the form with text exists, and can directly or by the interface of simulation client program make amendment indirectly.And the flow process script file is scanned the message chained list that explanation just can generate corresponding operation flow.Analogue system will be according to the content of the variation real time altering message chained list of flow process script.The content that has comprised timer, message direction, type of message and message additional option in the message chained list.
After the chain of messages table generated, the travelling carriage object just began to carry out concrete message flow simulation successively according to the parameter each node from linked list head.Generally speaking, except that the startup of called flow and handoff response side be respectively calling procedure at the caller travelling carriage start the back and switch initiate to automatically perform after the effluent journey starts, the startup of other flow process generally activates the corresponding mobile station object by man-machine interface.
The method of operation of system is: the operator is selected travelling carriage index and the type of service that will simulate on human-computer interaction interface at first, and determines and these user-dependent data have satisfied the service analogue requirement, and the flow process script file corresponding with analog service is correct.Start the simulation of operation flow then by interactive interface.
With above-described script file is that example illustrates that with reference to figure 3, Fig. 4 simulation program carries out the simulation process (transmission and the reception process that comprise message) of operation flow according to the message chained list that generates.
Elder generation sets forth the flow process that analogue system starts and send message, and step is as follows: 1. the simulation client program determines that the action of travelling carriage object is after sending, and structure also sends Bmsg1 to emulating server, and starts the T1 timer; 2. emulating server receives the message Bmsg1 that the simulation client computer is sent; 3. emulating server is given the simulation foreground with forwards; 4. the simulation foreground becomes O.7 signaling format of standard N with the message coding of being received; According in the message with the travelling carriage index determine which MSC index range and message will mail to; 6. the simulation foreground sends message to corresponding M SC by the NO.7 signaling network;
Can finish the process that in the analogue system message Bmsg1 of analogue mobile station sends corresponding switch to by these 6 steps.
Analogue system receives the flow process from this information (being Bmsg1) of switch simulation client computer under the corresponding mobile station afterwards, and step is as follows:
1. the message Mmsg1 from MSC is received on the plan of rubbing foreground,
2. source codec is become to simulate the message format that background program can be discerned.
3. judge from whether having the travelling carriage index in the message of MSC, if from the message of MSC
In have the travelling carriage index and change step 5;
4. if from Tape movement platform index not in the message of MSC, the simulation foreground must be at first according to disappearing
The OPC Origination Point Code of breath is the travelling carriage call number that the signaling point code of MSC is determined this message
Scope, get minimum value in this scope then as the call number in the message;
5. give emulating server with forwards;
Emulating server according in the message with the travelling carriage call number message is issued the corresponding simulating visitor
The family machine;
7. simulation is after client program receives Mmsg1 message, and that determines that this message waited for really disappears
Breath just stops the T1 timer, handles Mmsg1, constructs and send Bmsg2 then to simulation
Server starts timer T2;
8. subsequent treatment is identical with the processing of article one message, finishes the statistical simulation knot until operation flow
Really.
By above-mentioned step, just can realize transmission, reception and the affirmation process of analogue mobile station message.
Analogue system of the present invention is powerful, all signaling capabilitys of real base station system have not only been realized, comprise position renewal, unique challenge, beginning exhale, exhale eventually, switching of short message, supplementary service, intra-office and interoffice, land circuit management, overload control or the like, thereby can also allow exploitation and tester realize that needed any signaling process finishes some specific function.The function that can't realize comprising true base station is as perfect relatively Bulk Call test function.Selected several mobile stations user starts the simulation of identical or different operation flows successively.In case certain travelling carriage flow performing finishes, initiate the simulation of same flow process next time again after at certain time intervals.Each travelling carriage executed in parallel without interfering with each other separately operation flow.Can change the time interval of each travelling carriage initial start and the time interval that same Mobile Origination is simulated next time neatly by the parameter of revising in the configuration file, thereby satisfy the demand of different tests.Simultaneously, simulation program has also been added up the number of times of total degree, success and failure that miscellaneous service initiates and the reason of failure etc., for debugging and test provide favourable reference data.In addition, realized big quantity mobile subscriber's simulation, can finish several ten thousand even the test of every performance of hundreds of thousands user capacity by specific algorithm.
Adopt whole system of the present invention with low cost.Only need frame and a some PC of realizing the signal switching function on the hardware as simulation client computer and server.Software platform is based on MicrosoftWindows NT4.0, the data configuration simple and flexible of system, and friendly interface is directly perceived, and need not special training process can grasp.
Utilize this cover base station analogue system and method, in the research and development of CDMA/MSC and GSM/MSC system and test process, need not to dispose expensive professional test equipment again, also need not to dispose real base station system, saved R﹠D costs.This analogue system that also confirms actual motion has satisfied the needs of research and development tests well.
