Description

  The present invention relates to a mobile communication system that implements mobile communication using an IP (Internet Protocol) network or the like, and a base station apparatus and communication apparatus used in this type of system.

  As is well known, in an existing mobile communication system, when an incoming call is made to a mobile radio terminal, a simultaneous call (simultaneous incoming call) is made to all base stations in a call area where the mobile terminal has registered its location. Also in the wireless zone, the mobile terminal is called by simultaneous notification, and the line is connected according to the response of the mobile terminal (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 4).

JP 2003-259212 A JP 2001-309419 A JP-A-7-162932 JP-A-6-327048

  In the existing technology, all base stations in the calling area are called all at once. That is, every time a terminal call occurs, the wired line resource to the base station and the radio resource developed by the base station are used in all the base stations in the calling area. For this reason, there is a problem that valuable communication resources are wasted. Furthermore, communication is not possible due to pressure on the channel for terminating incoming calls, resulting in a problem of call loss.

  This means that when a mobile terminal is used in a fixed place (Wireless Local Loop: WLL), or a mobile terminal is used semi-fixed (the terminal is moved, but is fixed when used) ), Especially when a wireless mesh network or the like is created under the base station. That is, even when the mobile terminal is used in a fixed manner, a simultaneous call is performed, so that wasteful consumption of radio resources is particularly significant, and some measures are desired.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to make it possible to minimize the consumption of communication resources, thereby enabling efficient communication and its base station apparatus and communication. To provide an apparatus.

According to the embodiment, a mobile communication system includes a plurality of base station devices that individually develop radio zones, and a plurality of base station devices, communication devices connected to an IP (Internet Protocol) network and a circuit switching network. It has . The communication apparatus includes means for performing call control related to a mobile terminal apparatus located in a paging area formed by a radio zone group developed by a plurality of base station apparatuses, a subordinate mobile terminal apparatus and its counterpart Means for detouring the communication route from the circuit switched network to the IP network. The mobile terminal device includes a notification processing unit for notifying a new base station device of a message to that effect when a base station device in the destination is switched due to movement between radio zones. Each of the plurality of base station devices includes a mobile terminal information database in which information on mobile terminal devices residing in a subordinate radio zone is databased, a registration processing unit, and an incoming call processing unit. Upon receiving the message, the registration processing unit registers the mobile terminal device that is the notification source of this message in the mobile terminal information database. When the incoming call processing unit receives an incoming call addressed to the mobile terminal device from the communication device, if the incoming mobile terminal device is registered in the mobile terminal information database, the incoming call processing unit Establish a wireless link.

  By taking such means, when an incoming call occurs at a mobile terminal, an incoming message is sent all at once to the base station apparatus in the calling area where the mobile terminal is located via a communication device (for example, a server device). The However, the process for actually establishing the radio link is executed only between this mobile terminal and the base station apparatus that is the destination. That is, the base station apparatus performs processing for consuming radio resources only when it is confirmed that the destination terminal is in the radio zone under its control. Therefore, consumption of communication resources can be minimized.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to minimize the consumption of communication resources, and it is possible to provide a mobile communication system capable of realizing efficient communication, its base station apparatus, and communication apparatus.

The flowchart which shows the process sequence of the call control server 100 of FIG.

FIG. 1 is a system diagram showing an embodiment of a mobile communication system according to the present invention. This system includes a call control server 100 connected to an IP network DN, and a gateway device 200 and a management server 300, both of which are connected to the circuit switching network XN and the IP network DN. Among these, the call control server 100 accommodates base stations CS1 to CS7 via a subscriber network, and voice calls and data by VoIP (Voice over IP) related to the mobile terminals PS accommodated in these base stations CS1 to CS7. Call control related to communication is executed. The call control server 100 includes a database (DB) 101 and stores various information related to call control in the database 101.
In particular, SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) is generally used to realize VoIP communication. In this case, the call control server 100 provides a function as a SIP server.

  Gateway apparatus 200 accommodates base stations CS8 to CSn via a subscriber network. A fixed telephone terminal or a soft phone may be connected to the subscriber network. The gateway device 200 realizes a function of appropriately detouring a communication route between a subordinate terminal and its counterpart to the IP network DN from the circuit switching network XN. The management server 300 performs processing related to location registration of mobile terminals in the system. In FIG. 1, the call control server 100 develops a paging area (PA) 1, and the gateway device 200 develops a paging area 2. It is assumed that the mobile terminal PS1 is in the calling area 1 and the mobile terminals PS2 and PS3 are in the calling area 2. Each mobile terminal PS1 to PS3 is connected to the base station CS via a radio protocol in the calling area, and is connected to a communication partner via the IP network DN or the circuit switching network XN. The IP network DN is a packet communication network such as a wide area Ethernet (registered trademark) or an IP-VPN (IP-Virtual Private Network) connection service, and is formed as an NCC (New Common Carrier) original network.

  FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the call area 1 of FIG. 1 in detail. The call area (PA) 1 is formed by radio zones 7-x (x = 1, 2,..., 7) that the base stations CS1 to CS7 individually develop. Each base station CS1 to CS7 communicates with a mobile terminal located within its own wireless zone via a wireless line. In the following description, it is assumed that the mobile terminal PS1 in FIG. 1 is located in the wireless zone 7-1 deployed by the base station CS1. In FIG. 2, only the base station CS1 and the base stations CS2 to CS7 adjacent to the base station CS1 are illustrated, but depending on the system, base stations (and radio zones) exist outside the base station CS1.

  In the existing technology, when an incoming call to a mobile terminal that is supposed to be in the calling area 1 occurs, the call control server 100 transmits an incoming message to all the base stations CS1 to CS7 all at once. In response to this, the base stations CS1 to CS7 simultaneously activate the radio link control channel and wait for a response from the destination terminal. With the above as a basic system configuration, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

[First Embodiment]
FIG. 3 is a functional block diagram showing the first embodiment of the base station CS1. The same applies to CS2 to CS7. In FIG. 3, the base station CS1 includes a search processing unit C1 and an incoming call processing unit C2.
When the search processing unit C1 receives an incoming call (for example, an INVITE message) addressed to the mobile terminal PS1 from the call control server 100, the search processing unit C1 searches the radio zone 7-1 under its own device to determine whether or not the mobile terminal PS1 exists. Check. The incoming call processing unit C2 establishes a radio link between the mobile terminal PS1 and its own station when the mobile terminal PS1 is confirmed as the radio zone 7-1.

  In particular, when receiving an incoming call, the search processing unit C1 sends a confirmation request packet addressed to PS1 to the wireless zone 7-1. Then, when the confirmation response packet for the confirmation request packet is successfully received, it is confirmed that the mobile terminal PS1 is in the wireless zone 7-1 under its control. Here, incoming calls arrive from the call control server 100 in the same manner to the other base stations CS2 to CS7. The base stations CS2 to CS7 each send confirmation request packets to the following radio zones 7-2 to 7-7, respectively, but the mobile terminal PS1 is located in the radio zone 7-1 as described above. Accordingly, the base stations CS2 to CS7 fail (time out) to receive the acknowledgment packet.

  FIG. 4 is a functional block diagram showing the first embodiment of the mobile terminal PS1. The same applies to the mobile terminals PS2 and PS3. In the following description, PHS (Personal Handy-phone System) terminals are taken as examples of the mobile terminals PS1 to PS3. The mobile terminal PS1 includes a radio unit 10 including an antenna 11, a modem unit 20, a TDMA unit 30, a call unit 40 including a speaker 43 and a microphone (M) 44, an incoming call notification unit 50, a memory unit 60, A user interface unit 70, a battery 80, a battery monitoring unit 90, and a control unit 100 are provided.

  A radio frequency signal transmitted from the base station CS via the radio communication channel is received by the antenna 11 and input to the receiving unit 13 via the high frequency switch (SW) 12 of the radio unit 10. In the reception unit 13, the radio frequency signal is mixed with the reception local oscillation signal generated from the frequency synthesizer 14 and frequency-converted to a reception intermediate frequency signal. The oscillation frequency of the frequency synthesizer 14 is instructed from the control unit 100 according to the radio channel frequency. The radio unit 10 is provided with a received electric field intensity detector (RSSI) 16. The reception field strength detection unit 16 detects the reception field strength (RSSI value) of the radio frequency signal arriving from the base station CS, and notifies the control unit 100 of the detected value.

  The reception intermediate frequency signal output from the reception unit 13 is input to the demodulation unit 21 of the modem unit 20. The demodulator 21 digitally demodulates the received intermediate frequency signal, thereby reproducing a digital speech signal. In the TDMA decoding unit 31 of the TDMA unit 30, the digital speech signal is decomposed for each time slot in accordance with an instruction from the control unit 100. Of the plurality of decomposed digital call signals, a digital call signal of a slot addressed to the own device is input to the call unit 40.

  The call unit 40 includes an adaptive differential PCM transcoder (ADPCM TRANS CODER) 41 and a PCM codec (PCM CODEC) 42, and the digital call signal is sequentially decoded by the adaptive differential PCM transcoder 41 and the PCM codec 42 to perform an analog call. Played back to the signal. The analog call signal is amplified by a receiving amplifier (not shown) and output from the speaker 43.

  On the other hand, the transmission voice input to the microphone 44 is sequentially encoded by the PCM codec 42 and the adaptive differential PCM transcoder 41 to become a digital speech signal, and is input to the TDMA encoding unit 32. In the TDMA encoding unit 32, the digital speech signal output from the adaptive differential transcoder 41 is inserted into the time slot designated by the control unit 100 and input to the modulation unit 22. In the modulation unit 22, the carrier signal is digitally modulated by the digital speech signal. The carrier signal modulated in this way is input to the transmitter 15.

  In the transmission unit 15, the modulated carrier wave signal is mixed with the transmission local oscillation signal generated from the frequency synthesizer 14, thereby being frequency-converted to a radio channel frequency instructed by the control unit 100 to a predetermined transmission power level. Amplified. Then, the radio frequency signal subjected to frequency conversion and signal amplification by the transmission unit 15 is transmitted from the antenna 11 to the base station CS via the high frequency switch 12.

  The incoming call notification unit 50 notifies the user of an incoming call under the control of the control unit 100 when there is an incoming call addressed to the mobile terminal PS1, and a sounding body 51 that emits an audible sound for notification and a light emitting body that provides notification by light emission. 52, and a vibrating body 53 that performs notification by generating vibration by an eccentric motor, for example.

  The memory unit 60 uses a semiconductor memory as a storage medium. In addition to the control program of the control unit 100 and ID data of the own terminal necessary for authentication, the memory unit 60 includes various control data, various setting data, speed dials, Dial data such as a telephone directory is stored.

  The user interface unit 70 includes a display unit 71 and a key input unit 72. The display unit 71 displays, for example, an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) on its own state (calling / incoming call, remaining battery level, reception strength), dial data read from the memory unit 60, etc., and visually displays various information to the user. Shown in

  The key input unit 72 is a key for performing a normal function related to outgoing / incoming calls, such as a numeric keypad for inputting a dial number, and various types of incoming call notification methods (audible sound / light emission / vibrator / no notification). A function setting key for setting is provided. The battery 80 is a secondary battery such as a lithium ion battery or a nickel metal hydride battery, and supplies driving power to the mobile terminal PS1. The battery monitoring unit 90 monitors the battery 80, detects the remaining amount of the battery, and notifies the control unit 100 of it.

  The control unit 100 includes a microcomputer as a main control unit. The control unit 100 controls each unit in FIG. 4 to realize mobile communication, or stores it in the memory unit 60 in response to a user request given from the key input unit 72. Various controls such as editing control of dial data to be performed are performed.

  Incidentally, the control unit 100 includes a response processing unit 400a as a processing function according to this embodiment. When the response processing unit 400a receives a confirmation request packet addressed to itself, the response processing unit 400a transmits the confirmation response packet to the base station that has transmitted the confirmation request packet. Note that both the confirmation request packet and the confirmation response packet are simple messages of about several bytes. Next, the operation in the above configuration will be described.

FIG. 5 is a sequence flow showing processing procedures of the call control server 100, the base station CS1, and the mobile terminal PS1 when an incoming call occurs in the mobile terminal PS1 in this embodiment. In FIG. 5, when the call control server 100 receives an incoming call addressed to the mobile terminal PS1 from the IP network DN (step S11), the incoming call is transmitted to all the base stations CS1 to CS7 in the calling area 1 (step S12). Among these, when receiving an incoming call from the call control server 100 (step S21), the base station CS1 transmits a confirmation request packet in which destination terminal information (telephone number and the like) is described to the wireless section (step S22).
Receiving this, the mobile terminal PS1 receives the confirmation request packet (step S31), confirms by the terminal information that it is a confirmation request packet addressed to itself, and returns a confirmation response packet to the base station CS1 (step S32).

  Receiving this, the base station CS1 transmits an incoming call message to the mobile terminal PS1 after receiving the acknowledgment packet (step S23), and performs link channel establishment processing, that is, channel establishment processing in the radio section (step S24). ). Upon receiving the incoming call message, the mobile terminal PS1 returns an incoming call response to the base station CS1, and implements a link channel establishment process together with an incoming call notification operation to the user (step S33). Thereafter, a known incoming call processing sequence is executed (steps S25 and S34), and a state of waiting for the user's response operation is entered.

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart summarizing the processing procedure of the base station CS1 in the above procedure. When an incoming call arrives from the incoming call waiting state in step S61 (Yes in step S61), the base station CS1 searches (searches) the destination mobile terminal (step S62), and only when there is a response (Yes in step S63). ), Incoming message transmission (step S66), link channel establishment processing (step S64), and incoming processing (step S65).

  As described above, in this embodiment, when an incoming call arrives from the call control server 100, each base station CS1 to CS7 has a destination mobile terminal PS1 located in its own radio zone 7-1 to 7-7. Check whether or not. The incoming call message is transmitted only when the destination mobile terminal PS1 is confirmed in the subordinate radio zone, and the link channel establishment and the incoming call processing are performed. That is, after the incoming call reaches the call control server 100, the incoming call is transferred to all the base stations, and then the base station that accommodates the counterpart mobile terminal is specified prior to the subsequent processing. Since the subsequent processing is performed only from this base station, only one base station consumes radio resources. Therefore, the consumption of radio resources can be minimized, thereby making it possible to greatly increase the efficiency of communication.

[Second Embodiment]
FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram for explaining an example of the operation of the search processing unit C1 of FIG. The radio zone may be a single area (omni directory) or may be formed from a plurality of sub-areas. For example, it is assumed that the wireless zone 7-1 is divided into four subareas A to D. Of course, the number is not limited to four, and may be six divisions, eight divisions or more, or three or two divisions.

  The search processing unit C1 searches for the mobile terminal PS1 in the radio zone 7-1, and there are roughly two methods. One method is a method in which the sub-areas A to D are collectively searched. The other method is a method of individually searching the sub-areas A to D sequentially in a time division manner as shown in FIGS. 7A to 7C show that the search is performed in the order of the sub areas A to C, and it can be easily analogized that the sub area D is reached next. That is, the search processing unit C1 sequentially sends confirmation request packets to the subareas A to D and waits for a response. In this way, the current position of the mobile terminal is scanned (searched).

  Such a technique can be easily realized by mounting an adaptive array antenna or the like on the base station and performing beam shaping. Note that when sending a confirmation request packet, all subareas may be targeted, and a link channel may be established only in the subarea in which a confirmation response has been made.

[Third Embodiment]
FIG. 8 is a functional block diagram showing the third embodiment of the base station CS1. The same applies to CS2 to CS7. In FIG. 8, parts that are the same as those in FIG. 3 are given the same reference numerals, and only different parts will be described here. 8, the base station CS1 includes a registration processing unit C3 and a database (DB) 900. The database 900 stores mobile terminal information in which information on mobile terminals located in the radio zone 7-1 under the control of the base station CS1 is databased. When the registration processing unit C3 is notified of the wireless zone switching from the subordinate mobile terminal, the registration processing unit C3 registers the mobile terminal of the notification source in the mobile terminal information 900a.

  When the incoming call processing unit C2 receives an incoming call addressed to the mobile terminal from the call control server 100, the incoming call processing unit C2 is in contact with the mobile terminal of the incoming call destination when the incoming mobile terminal is registered in the mobile terminal information 900a. Establish a wireless link.

  FIG. 9 is a functional block diagram showing a third embodiment of the mobile terminal PS1. The same applies to the mobile terminals PS2 and PS3. In FIG. 9, parts common to FIG. 4 are given the same reference numerals, and only different parts will be described here. In FIG. 9, the control unit 400 of the mobile terminal PS1 includes a notification processing unit 400b. When the visited base station is switched due to movement between wireless zones, the notification processing unit 400b notifies the new visited base station of a message to that effect. For example, when the mobile terminal PS1 moves from the wireless zone 7-3 to 7-1, the notification processing unit 400b of the mobile terminal PS1 notifies the base station CS1 to that effect. That is, as shown in FIG. 10, when it is recognized from the control channel information or the like that the base station ID (Identification) of the visited area has changed (step S101), the mobile terminal PS1 informs the base station CS1 that it has moved in the radio zone. Notification is made (step S102).

  FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing a processing procedure of the base station CS1 of FIG. If there is a notification from the mobile terminal in FIG. 11 (Yes in step S111), the base station CS1 registers the ID of the mobile terminal in the mobile terminal information 900a of the database 900 (step S113). If there is no notification (No in step S111), the base station CS1 periodically scans the wireless zone 7-1 to search for a mobile terminal (step S112), and if found, registers it in the mobile terminal information 900a. .

  If there is an incoming call from this state (Yes in step S114), the base station CS1 determines whether or not the destination mobile terminal is registered in the database 900, and if it is a registered terminal (Yes in step S115), Thereafter, the same procedure (steps S64 and S65) as in FIG. 6 is executed for this mobile terminal.

  In this embodiment, prior to receiving a call, the base stations CS1 to CS7 recognize the subordinate mobile terminals and register them in the database. The incoming calls from the call control server 100 reach the base stations CS1 to CS7 all at once, but the link establishment sequence is executed only from the base stations that have registered the destination mobile terminals (and are currently in the area). ing. Even in this way, the object of the present invention can be achieved.

[Fourth Embodiment]
FIG. 12 is a functional block diagram showing the fourth embodiment of the base station CS1 and the call control server 100. As shown in FIG. The same applies to CS2 to CS7. In FIG. 12, parts that are the same as those in FIG. 8 are given the same reference numerals, and only different parts will be described here. In FIG. 12, the base station CS1 includes a response processing unit C4. The call control server 100 includes a specific processing unit 100a and a call control unit 100b.

  When receiving the incoming call addressed to the mobile terminal, the specification processing unit 100a specifies the base station that is the destination of the mobile terminal that is the destination of the call. The call control unit 100b performs call control to establish a radio link between the base station identified by the identification processing unit 100a and the destination mobile terminal. In particular, when receiving an incoming call, the specific processing unit 100a inquires of the base stations CS1 to CS7 whether or not the destination mobile terminal is in the service area, and determines the base station that has responded to the inquiry to the destination mobile terminal in the service area. Identifies as a base station. A process of receiving a response and returning a response is performed by the response processing unit C4. That is, the response processing unit C4 responds to an inquiry from the call control server 100 when the destination mobile terminal is in the subordinate radio zone.

  FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing a processing procedure of the call control server 100 of FIG. In FIG. 13, when an incoming call is generated from standby (Yes in step S131), the call control server 100 determines whether or not to specify a destination base station (step S132). If not specified, the call control server 100 transmits the incoming call to all the base stations CS1 to CS7 (step S133), and thereafter, the sequence flow of FIG. 5 is executed.

  If specified (Yes in step S132), the call control server 100 inquires of all the base stations CS1 to CS7 by some message about the presence / absence of the area of the destination mobile terminal (step S134). If there is no response to this inquiry, the answer is NG, but if there is a response (Yes in Step S135), the call control server 100 transmits the incoming call only to the base station specified here (Step S136).

  Thus, the object of the present invention can also be achieved by specifying a base station to which an incoming call should be sent under the initiative of the call control server 100 when receiving an incoming call, and dropping an incoming message only for this one base station.

The call control server 100 in FIG. 14 includes a registration processing unit 100c and a database (DB) 101. The database 101 stores mobile terminal information 101a. The mobile terminal information 101a is a database in which mobile terminals located in the calling area 1 under the control of the call control server 100 are made into a database in association with the base stations of the visited areas.

  When the registration processing unit 100c receives the location notification message from the mobile terminal via the base station device, the registration processing unit 100c associates the mobile terminal that is the notification source of this message with the base station that has passed the location notification message. 101a is registered. When the call control unit 100b of the call control server 100 receives an incoming call addressed to the mobile terminal, when the destination mobile terminal is registered in the mobile terminal information 101a, the call control unit 100b and the destination mobile terminal Call control is performed to establish a radio link with a base station in the service area.

  Similarly to the third embodiment (FIG. 9), the mobile terminal PS1 sends a message to that effect to the new base station when the base station in the base station is switched due to movement between radio zones. Notify to. In the fifth embodiment, this message is transferred to the call control server 100 via the base station.

  FIG. 15 is a flowchart showing a processing procedure of the call control server 100 of FIG. In FIG. 15, when there is location registration, that is, when a notification message for switching to a destination wireless zone is received from the mobile terminal (Yes in step S151), the call control server 100 connects the mobile terminal and the base station of the destination. The set is registered in the mobile terminal information 101a of the database 101 (step S152).

  If there is an incoming call thereafter (Yes in step S153), the call control server 100 specifies a base station that accommodates the destination mobile terminal from the contents of the database 101 (step S154), and receives an incoming call only to the specified base station. Transmit (step S155). In this way, the call control server 100 is provided with information on the location of the mobile terminal, and the call control server 100 confirms the presence or absence of the mobile terminal at the base station when an incoming call occurs or periodically. Then, the incoming call is dropped only to the base station where the called mobile terminal is located. In this way, the object of the present invention is also achieved.

It may be.

Further, terminal information (terminal ID) used for call connection processing is not limited to a telephone number. For example, it may be an identifier of the visited call area (or wireless zone). In this way, the amount of message information used in the sequence can be significantly reduced, so that the consumption of communication resources can be further suppressed.
The function of the call control server 100 may be installed in a gateway device and connected to the circuit switched network XN. In addition, the number of base stations mainly used for the call control server 100 and the gateway device 200 can be changed.
