Related application
The application requires to enjoy the priority according to the following provisional application of 35U.S.C. § 119 (e): the application 60/486934 that on July 14th, 2003 proposed.This application is all incorporated herein by reference.
Background of invention
The present invention relates generally to self-adaptive controlled making mechanism,, and more particularly, relate to a kind of method of in cdma network, estimating the load of radio base station as rate controlled and the power control that is used for reverse chain channel in the cdma network.
Cdma network is an interference limiting system.Because all travelling carriages are in same frequencies operations, therefore, the internal interference that generates in network plays an important role when definite power system capacity and signal quality.The transmitting power of each travelling carriage has contribution to the reverse link loading of base station, and need control with limit interferences, keeps required performance objective simultaneously, for example, and the error rate (BER), frame error rate (FER), capacity, cutting off rate, coverage or the like.If it is too high that reverse link loading becomes, then general interruption may appear.When keeping the required power of lowest signal qualities standard, think that interruption can take place greater than the maximum transmission power of travelling carriage.
One of radio base station reverse link loading measure be called thermal noise raise (Rise OverThermal, RoT).RoT is normally defined on the base station gross power received from all travelling carriages and the ratio between the thermal noise.RoT is important measuring that is used for reverse link rate control, call admission control and reverse link scheduling for high speed packet data channel.Accurate measuring of RoT is long-standing problem always.Though interference on the measurement base station and background noise and relatively easy, determine that the two ratio is promptly more difficult as the interested RoT that measures.Problem is that the base station almost has business all the time, thereby the measurement background noise of having no chance.The present invention relates generally to self-adaptive controlled making mechanism,, and more particularly, relate to a kind of method of in cdma network, estimating the load of radio base station as rate controlled and the power control that is used for reverse chain channel in the cdma network.
The problem of determining RoT is to determine the noise power of background noise (comprising minizone and adjacent) in the communication system.Past has two kinds of technology to be used for determining Background Noise Power.A kind of technology is based on the signal of signal of base station demodulation and the estimated value of interference and noise ratio (SINR) is estimated RoT.Yet this technology is had to the rough estimate value of RoT.
Be used for determining that second kind of technology of RoT is to make all travelling carriages of whole network noiseless with periodic intervals, and during silence periods (silence period), measure noise power.Owing to do not receive signal at base stations during silence periods from travelling carriage, therefore, Background Noise Power can accurately be measured in the base station.The gross power of receiving on the base station obtains RoT with the ratio of Background Noise Power.
The reverse link frame that the idea of measuring background noise during periodic silence periods has been proposed to be used in all travelling carriages be time unifying and data service be the system that tolerance postpones.The system that has proposed periodic silence periods comprises IS-856 and 1xEV-DO system.Because the reverse link frame in these systems is synchronous, therefore, is relatively easy task for single frame makes all travelling carriages noiseless.In addition, because system is brand-new, therefore, system needn't keep and leave over the compatibility of travelling carriage.Another problem of prior art solution is not work out the regulation of considering the adjacent in the multicarrier system.
Summary of the invention

RBS 36 communicates with a plurality of travelling carriages 100.RBS 36 by a plurality of reverse chain channels from travelling carriage 100 received signals.Reverse chain channel in the cdma2000 network for example can comprise Reverse Pilot Channel (R-PICH), reverse Auxiliary Pilot Channel (R-SPICH), Reverse Dedicated Control Channel (R-DCCH), Reverse Fundamental Channel (R-FCH), reverse complemental channel (R-SCH), reverse power control channel (R-PCCH), reverse ack channel (R-ACKCH), reverse channel quality indication channel (R-CQICH), reverse packet data channel (R-PDCH), reverse request channel (R-REQCH) and reverse packet data control channel (R-PDCCH), Reverse Access Channel (R-ACH), Reverse Enhanced Access Channel (R-EACH) and Reverse Common Signaling Channel (R-CSCH).Travelling carriage 100 is launched pilot signal on R-PICH and R-SPICH, these signals are used for channel estimating and signal strength measurement by RBS 36.R-FCH and R-SCH are the Traffic Channels that is used for voice-over and/or data.The R-DCCH carrying is used for the signaling consumption of R-FCH and R-SCH.R-PDCH is the high speed packet data channel that is used for reverse link traffic.The R-PDCCH carrying is used for the signaling consumption of R-PDCH.R-REQCH bearing resource solicited message is to support R-PDCH.R-ACKCH is used to confirm to be transmitted on the forward link the Frame of travelling carriage 100 by travelling carriage 100.R-PCCH is used for transmission power control information to the base station by travelling carriage 100.R-ACH and R-EACH are used to launch Access Probe to insert at random.R-CSCH is a common signaling channel.The reverse chain channel inventory is also not exhaustive, and other reverse chain channel can also exist.In addition, listed channel is not essential for putting into practice the present invention.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, should make the transmission on all reverse chain channels noiseless to allow to measure background noise.
In number of C DMA system, for all reverse chain channels, frame is not identical regularly.In addition, be used for some reverse chain channels of different mobile stations, frame regularly can be different.Because be not all reverse chain channels be synchronous, therefore, single frame can not be appointed as " silence periods " so that RBS 36 can measure the noise power of background noise in the communication system.
According to the present invention, even frame is regularly asynchronous on all reverse chain channels, even and frame regularly inequality between all travelling carriages 100, also defined for all travelling carriages identical periodic silence periods.According to the present invention, noiseless parameter is transmitted into travelling carriage 100 by RBS 36.The time reference of noiseless parameter assigned frequency or cycle, duration and periodic silence periods.The value of noiseless parameter can be selected by the Systems Operator, and is programmed among the RBS 36 when RBS 36 configurations.
The frequency of cycle parameter regulation silence periods.The representative value of cycle density can be 10 seconds.The length of duration parameter regulation silence periods.The representative value of duration parameter can be 20 milliseconds.In a preferred embodiment, the time reference parameter is provided for the absolute time benchmark of the silence periods of synchronous all travelling carriages and all reverse chain channels.Time reference can from or obtain based on system clock or global positioning system (GPS) clock.Time reference for example can be specified the time started of next silence periods.Noiseless parametric optimization is broadcasted by forward broadcast control channel (F-BCCH) as the part of control messages.Perhaps noiseless parameter can send to travelling carriage 100 by Forward Paging Channel (F-PCH).For realizing and the backwards compatibility of existing travelling carriage 100, noiseless parameter may must be launched all on F-PCH and F-BCCH.
Fig. 4 illustrates the frame timing and the silence periods of demonstration reverse chain channel.As shown in Figure 4, each reverse chain channel is divided into a plurality of frames 200.In this example, 200 duration of frame of supposing all reverse chain channels are 20 milliseconds.Yet the frame length of all channels is identical to be not essential.Each frame is divided into power control group (PCG) 206 again.In example embodiment, each frame 200 has 16 PCG.Cycle and duration parameter can PCG be that unit stipulates.
Silence periods 202 is represented in shadow region among Fig. 4, and its duration is 16 PCG or 20 milliseconds in this example.Yet it is identical with the reverse link frame length that silence periods need not.As shown in Figure 4, silence periods 202 needn't conform to frame boundaries.In addition, it should be noted that silence periods 202 can be crossed over frame boundaries 204, and comprise the part of two independent frames 200.Time reference begins to locate to be linked to absolute time benchmark as system clock or gps clock with each silence periods, so that can be all travelling carriages 100 and the synchronous silence periods of all reverse chain channels.
Travelling carriage 100 is designed to read F-BCCH and/or F-PCH to obtain noiseless parameter.During operation, the transmission of travelling carriage 100 on all reverse chain channels of silence periods 202 pause of appointment, simultaneously, RBS 36 measures the power of background noise.When each silence periods 202 finishes, the transmission that travelling carriage 100 recovers on the reverse chain channel.On the reverse chain channel of carrying tolerance deferred traffic, travelling carriage 100 can stop and restarting transmission making frame can not lose in the middle of frame 200.For the real time business channel of not tolerating delay, as voice channel, travelling carriage 100 can be removed the frame of having launched 200 during silence periods 202.If silence periods 202 is beginning in the middle of frame 200, then travelling carriage 100 can be removed all frames 200 overlapping with silence periods.Recover emission during first whole frame 200 beginnings that subsequently, travelling carriage 100 will be after silence periods 202 finishes.Perhaps, travelling carriage 100 can be launched the first that begins to locate overlapping frame with silence periods, at the transmission of silence periods pause, the remainder of frame emission after silence periods then.In this case, with silence periods finish overlapping frame and all between two parties frame will be eliminated.The method has been preserved at least one frame of the data that not so are eliminated possibly.
For some channels, travelling carriage 100 can check before frame emission whether the frame that will launch is overlapping with silence periods.Can use the channel of this process to comprise Reverse Access Channel (R-ACH), Reverse Enhanced Access Channel (R-EACH) and Reverse Common Signaling Channel (R-CSCH).Before the emission Access Probe, travelling carriage 100 checks possibly whether the Access Probe transmission is overlapping with silence periods on R-ACH or R-EACH.If then travelling carriage 100 arrives not overlapping with silence periods next R-ACH or R-EACH time slot with the Access Probe transmission delay possibly.Similarly process can be used on R-CSCH.
Can on forward channel, adopt with the similar process of said process.Under the situation of silence periods beginning in the middle of the frame, travelling carriage 100 can be before interruption be stored in the first of frame in the memory.When silence periods finishes, but the remainder of RBS 36 frame emissions 200.Travelling carriage 100 these two parts capable of being combined are to form complete frame.The frame that is emptied (blank) by silence periods fully can be eliminated.Under the certain situation, RBS 36 can remove all frames overlapping with silence periods.
In some mobile communication system, may not wish that all travelling carriages 100 stop and beginning emission suddenly.According to one embodiment of present invention, travelling carriage 100 is designed to when silence periods 202 beginnings its transmitting power is reduced to zero gradually from current launching electrical level, and when silence periods 202 finishes transmitting power is increased to required transmitted power level gradually from zero.Fig. 5 A and Fig. 5 B illustrate this oblique deascension gradually and the oblique ascension of transmission power of mobile station when silence periods 202 beginnings and end respectively.
In Fig. 5 A, silence periods comprises the guard time of oblique deascension and oblique ascension power when silence periods begins and finish respectively.In this case, the time of time reference parameter tags travelling carriage 100 its transmitting powers of beginning oblique deascension.In Fig. 5 B, travelling carriage 100 is its transmitting power of oblique deascension before silence periods 202 beginnings, and just in time begins oblique ascension after silence periods 202 finishes.In this case, the time reference parameter identification must make the noiseless time of all transmission.Under arbitrary situation, RBS 36 can launch the 4th noiseless parameter, the speed of the 100 necessary oblique deascensions of regulation travelling carriage and its transmitting power of oblique ascension.RBS 36 can be given for the fixed time period of oblique ascension and oblique deascension transmitting power, perhaps can stipulate the speed of oblique deascension and oblique ascension transmitting power.Slope (ramp rate) also can be by the standard code that is suitable for.
Fig. 6 illustrates the clock circuit 250 that is used for implementation cycle property silence periods in the travelling carriage 100.Clock circuit 250 comprises a pair of counter 252,254 that serves as count down timer.In example embodiment of the present invention, cycle and duration parameter are the unit regulation with PCG, and counter 252,254 statistics power control group (PCG) numbers.It is benchmark that counter 252,254 all receives the 800Hz clock signal.System controller 120 is provided with the initial value of counter 252,254 based on noiseless parameter.Cycle parameter is determined the initial value of cycle rate counter 252.The duration parameter is determined the initial value of duration counter 254.Cycle rate counter 252 generates the stop signal of each silence periods 202 beginning of mark.From the stop signal of cycle rate counter 252 duration counter 254 that resets.When duration counter 254 inverses were zero, duration counter 254 generated restoring signal.The response of 120 pairs of stop signals of system controller is the transmission that stop on the reverse chain channel, and the response of restoring signal is the transmission that recovers on the reverse chain channel.When travelling carriage 100 was opened for the first time, system controller 120 uses came to be first silence periods 202 start-up period counters 252 from the time reference parameter that broadcast channel reads.Afterwards, cycle rate counter 252 oneself when each its generates stop signal resets.But system controller 120 also reset cycle counter 252 is offset with compensating clock.
All travelling carriages 100 that are not use will be recognized silence periods 202.There are some modes to solve the problem of leaving over travelling carriage 100.In multicarrier system, those that can't recognize silence periods are left over travelling carriage 100 and can be assigned to a carrier wave, and recognize that those travelling carriages 100 of silence periods can be assigned to independent carrier wave.In this case, the fraction of the noise power of measurement is attributable to adjacent.In most of system, the adjacent amount should be measured to produce reliable Background Noise Power enough for a short time.In single-carrier system, can order and leave over travelling carriage 100 at the candidate frequency search (CFS) of carrying out during the silence periods on another frequency, this frequency can be current untapped pseudo-carrier wave.
In certain embodiments, the enforcement of silence periods can influence power of reverse link control unfriendly.Owing to there is not reverse link signal during silence periods, therefore, RBS 36 is the signal to noise ratio (snr) on the energy measurement reverse link or determine that the required reverse link channel condition of power control command that generates inner loop power control changes not.Therefore, may wish to close forward link power controls subchannel and/or indicates travelling carriage 100 to ignore the forward link power control channel.Owing to during silence periods, do not carry out power of reverse link control, therefore, may also wish when silence periods finishes, to adjust the target set point of using by RBS 36.For example, if target set point is Eb/Nt=5dB when silence periods begins, in the time of then outside moving on to silence periods, set point can be adjusted to Eb/Nt=5.5 and provides bigger buffering to become poorer at launching condition during the silence periods and to need under the more powerful situation.
Fig. 7 illustrates alternate embodiment of the present invention.Fig. 7 flag activation is CH1 and CH2, have different frame two reverse chain channels regularly.Frame length on each channel is identical, but in some embodiments of the invention can be different.Channel CH1 and CH2 can be used by single mobile station, perhaps can be used by two different travelling carriages.Be channel CH1 and the asynchronous and overlapping silence periods 202 of CH2 definition.In example embodiment, the length of silence periods 202 equals two or more frames, and the beginning of silence periods 202 conforms to frame boundaries 204 with end.Therefore, the duration of silence periods 202 equals the integral multiple of frame length.In this embodiment, RBS 36 measures background noise in silence periods 202 in the overlapping time.Frame length for the identical system of all reverse chain channels in, length equal a frame effective silence periods can all travelling carriages 100 are noiseless to be continued two successive frames and obtain by making.The advantage of this embodiment is that travelling carriage 100 begins and stop emission at different time, and therefore, RBS36 can not see that the rapid step of load changes.
Certainly, under the situation that does not break away from the scope of the invention and essential characteristic, can other outer ad hoc fashion of mode described herein realize the present invention.Therefore, it is illustrative and not restrictive that this paper embodiment all will be considered as in every respect, and is intended to the institute in the meaning of claims and equivalent scope changed and is included in wherein.
