A kind of method of overload of reverse power control
The present invention relates to a kind of power overload controlling method of wireless telecommunication system, especially the overload of reverse power control method in the CDMA communication system.
Code division multiple access (CDMA) is a kind of in the mobile communication multiple access modulation technique commonly used.Because of its with its remarkable performance, attract much industry attention, simultaneously also be the mainstream technology in the third generation mobile system.In a typical CDMA cellular system, identical frequency is used in a plurality of sub-districts, and a plurality of mobile subscribers' existence is arranged in each sub-district usually, and causing cdma system like this is a self-interference system.In order to bring into play the performance of system, must carry out power control preceding, reverse link.To the base station of a certain specific environment, even be not subjected to the restriction of hardware resource, the channel number that can set up communication simultaneously also is limited, and this interference direct and that system is suffered is closely related.
Because interfering with each other of reverse link, when number of users arrived to a certain degree, the stability of system worse and worse.For guaranteeing the good operation of system, load factor should be controlled under certain level.In CDMA2000, more need to grasp the situation of system's present load rate, so that system determines the distribution and the foundation of reverse complemental channel according to current Radio Resource situation in good time.And because the variation of factors such as communication environment, customer volume, the system load rate is in time in continuous variation, and code division multiple access system has proposed the demand of real-time monitoring load rate.
The method of monitoring system load factor is that normally the technical staff that employs of network engineers or operator carries out the personal monitoring the earliest, note the load running situation with specialized designs and expensive testing equipment, be input to reprocessing and analysis that the equipment of focusing on carries out data then.The shortcoming of this method clearly can not the timely monitor load factor, is subjected to the influence of environment and testing equipment bigger.
For this reason, people have proposed multiple reverse overload control algolithm, but generally acknowledge that wherein efficient ways is few.Such as, patent US6173187, " METHOD OF SETTING LOAD GOAL ANDRADIO SYSTEM ", judge the size of load according to power variation rate, obviously when not changing, certain section time internal burden just is difficult to judge the size of present load.Patent US5859838 mentions the load monitoring equipment that adopts a kind of special use in " LOADMONITORING AND MANAGEMENT IN A CDMA WIRELESSCOMMUNICATION SYSTEM ".Basic thought is by this equipment, measures from the base station and receives the adjustment of power or adding up of power control bit, comes to compare with the threshold value of setting, thereby determines loading condition.It adopts special monitoring equipment to alleviate the load of base station deal with data.The system that has only voice service is met the demands basically, and the burst of data service may only produce overload in certain short period, such method of measurement is not very effective just.
The method of being praised highly most be ROBERTO PADOVANI in paper " Reverse Link Performanceof IS95 Based Cellular Systems " (IEEE Personal Communication Third quarter1994), propose carry out the thought that load factor is judged based on the received signal gross power.
It is as follows that this method is derived the formula of load factor
Wherein RxPower is a total received power, N
oW makes an uproar at the bottom of the receiver.Promptly
Wherein
According to above-mentioned conclusion, measure the Z value, through type (2) just can be calculated current load factor.This method is dull to possess theoretical foundation, but has significantly difficulty in the practical application.On the one hand, the Z value need be made an uproar and obtains by measuring the total received power and the end, and both measured values are random quantity, accurately a size of reflected load; On the other hand, in the real system make an uproar and be not quite similar in the end of each base station, and may change along with the operation of system, so this method can not accurately be calculated the size of present load rate equally.
The objective of the invention is to have proposed a kind of overload of reverse power control method of stable performance in order to overcome existing overload controlling method deficiency in actual applications.This method is relatively transshipped judgement according to the statistical law of received signal intensity and given threshold value, has eliminated the influence of outside noise, is easy to realize.
For realizing goal of the invention, the method that the present invention proposes mainly may further comprise the steps:
(1) the received signal intensity that receives every the set time measurement of receiver;
(2) the received signal measured value that in the overload control cycle, obtains in the acquisition step (1), and carry out
Conventional ascending order or descending;
(3) find out ordered sequence P% and (1-P%) two measurements of position correspondence that step (2) obtains
Value (wherein P is the integer between 1 to 50);
(4) absolute difference of two measured values that obtain in the calculation procedure (3);
(5) determine three grades of threshold values in advance, the difference and these threshold values that obtain in the step (4) are carried out
Relatively;
(6) obtain the situation of system load rate according to comparative result, carry out corresponding call control.
Set time in the described step (1) decides according to the disposal ability of receiver, guarantee can gather more than 100 points in the control cycle once transshipping.
Calling out control in the described step (6) further may further comprise the steps:
(6.1) if difference less than the one-level thresholding, system also will allow all flash-up to require and
Link establishment;
(6.2) if difference between a twice gated service value, system allows primary channel or low speed to mend
Fill the foundation of channel;
(6.3) if difference between two or three grades of threshold values, system only allows the soft handover request;
(6.4) if difference greater than three grades of threshold values, system will forbid all link establishments and power
Increase requirement;
Existing relatively method adopts method of the present invention, more pays attention to the convenience and the accuracy of practical application, does not need to measure the size of making an uproar at the extraneous end, and overload judges that response cycle is short, and can be used to carry out the test of code division multiple access system reverse capacity.Below in conjunction with drawings and Examples the present invention is described in detail.
Fig. 1 is a cdma cellular mobile communcations system structure chart; Fig. 2 is the graph of relation with load factor of making an uproar at total received power/end; Fig. 3 measures the CCDF figure that makes an uproar at total received power/end under three kinds of different loads rates; Fig. 4 is the flow chart that the present invention realizes.
Fig. 1 is a cdma cellular mobile communcations system structure chart.This system mainly is made up of mobile switching centre (MSC), base station controller (BSC), base station transceiver (BTS) and travelling carriage (MS) etc.Mobile switching centre (MSC) and PSTN or ISDN carry out network communication, and a MSC can be with a plurality of base station controllers (BSC) as 14A, 14B etc.Base station controller (BSC) can connect a plurality of base station transceivers (BTS) down, as 16A or 16B.Under each base station transceiver (BTS), can carry out communication with a plurality of travelling carriages (MS) simultaneously, as 12A and 12B.The different user number of the current carrying of system has reflected the load that system is different.
Usually, define system load Loading is as follows:
M is actual user's number, and N is the maximum number of user that system allows, and is relevant with comprehensive signal to noise ratio (each user profile is by the needed signal to noise ratio of the correct demodulation in base station), also relevant with the interference of voice activation and other sub-districts.
Analysis and actual measurement to total received power under the different loads can obtain relation curve shown in Figure 2; From figure as can be seen the positive growth of always disturbing into that receives of load factor and the receiver of current system concern that load factor is high more, curve is precipitous more, also with regard to the stability of illustrative system worse and worse.Therefore, in order to guarantee the stable operation of system, load factor need be controlled within certain level.
Continue the derivation of PADOVANI, the Z value satisfies following relational expression
Wherein
E[x] be designated as the average of x, Var[x] be designated as the variance of x, the v voice activation factor, β=ln10/10, the mean value of ε signal to noise ratio, σ signal to noise ratio variance.
Such as ε=7dB, σ=2.4dB under three kinds of different loads rates (M=21, M=31, M=41), can obtain the CCDF (being the 1-cumulative distribution function) of making an uproar total received power/end as shown in Figure 3 at one group of typical case.
As can be seen from this figure, with increasing of number of users, just along with the rising of load factor, curve is mild more.According to the characteristic of normal distribution, the Z value of measurement is more and more disperseed under statistical conditions.
Further, can obtain Z by formula (3)
1(dB)-Z
2(dB)=10log (RxPower
1)-10log (RxPower
2) (6) from following formula as seen, eliminated the influence of making an uproar at the end in the difference that received power is represented with dB.RxPower adopts received signal intensity indication RSSI (Receive Signal Strength Indicator) to measure in the reality, obviously, say that from the statistical significance the RSSI value of noting is also with Normal Distribution, the load factor of the big more reflection of the variance of distribution system is high more.
Utilize the statistical property of above-mentioned RSSI, can observe his statistical law by the dB value of measuring a plurality of RSSI, to judge its loading condition.
Fig. 4 is the flow chart that the present invention realizes.Shown in the overload controlling method figure: at first, the signal strength signal intensity RSSI that in 410, receives every the some cycles measuring receiver.In 420, N the RSSI value that receives carried out the arrangement of size order, desirable 100 such as N, depend on the speed of systematic sampling and the time that overload is judged, obviously the big more result of N value is accurate more.In 430, find out corresponding P% of this ordered sequence and (1-P%) point of position (wherein P is the integer between 1 to 50), such as desirable P=10, these two position correspondences be exactly 10% and 90%, certain point of other positions that also can adopt.Calculate the difference of two RSSI values that obtain in the process 430 then in 440, note is Δ RSSI, the corresponding in theory load factor of each Δ RSSI.In 450, store three grades of threshold values of Theoretical Calculation Δ RSSI.In 460, three grades of threshold values in Δ RSSI and 450 are compared, comparative result is sent into 470.In 470, determine the load factor situation that system is current according to comparative result, thereby system can carry out corresponding call control according to this load factor situation, also can be used to reflect the capacity of system.If Δ RSSI is less than the one-level thresholding, system also will allow all flash-ups to require and link establishment; If Δ RSSI is between a twice gated service value, system allows the foundation of primary channel or low speed complement channel; If Δ RSSI is between two or three grades of threshold values, system only allows the soft handover request; If Δ RSSI is greater than three grades of threshold values, system will forbid all link establishments and flash-up requirement.
In a word, this overload controlling method adopts the statistical property of received power, has eliminated the randomness of judged result, the result will be more accurate, and it is convenient to realize, not need to measure the size of making an uproar at the extraneous end, substantially be not subjected to the make an uproar influence of fluctuation of the end, can use the short cycle to transship judgement.Use this method simultaneously and can carry out the test of code division multiple access system reverse capacity.
