Definitions
- the present invention relates to a handover method suitable for being applied to a mobile communication system.
- BACKGROUND ART A so-called diversity handover method in which a mobile station moves between base stations while simultaneously communicating with a plurality of base stations is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application No. Hei 6-16953.
- a method is disclosed in which reliability information is generated from the state of a radio frame received by a base station, added to the frame, and selectively combined in a network.
- Japanese Patent Application No. 6-21093 the use of frame identification information between a mobile station and a higher-level device prevents skipping or duplication of frame selection and synthesis due to differences in delay between base stations, and prevents diversity handover. A method for doing so is disclosed.
- the conventional frame receiving device does not consider that the transmission delay differs depending on the service type, so the maximum transmission delay that occurs in the transmission section regardless of the service type is fixedly set in the system. Was. Therefore, when realizing a transmission method in which the transmission delay differs depending on the service type (for example, Type 5 and Type 2 transmission in ATM), the receiver generates unnecessary delays even for services with small transmission delay. would. (3) In conventional frame receivers, the maximum transmission delay that occurs in the transmission section is fixedly set in the system, so if transmission delays longer than expected due to transmission path or traffic fluctuation occur, synchronization will be lost. You have to disconnect the communication.
- the communication quality corresponds to the quality of the wireless link to be used on a one-to-one basis, so it was only necessary to monitor the wireless quality used in the wireless receiver.
- the communication quality is the result after the maximum ratio combining and Z selective combining of all branches during the diversity handover, and it is no longer possible to judge the quality only with the radio receiving unit.
- the maximum ratio combining is a technique in which a mobile station combines received signals from downlink radio frames arriving from a plurality of base stations by a site diversity effect to improve reception quality. This technique is also used as a technique for combining uplink radio frames arriving from a mobile station by using a plurality of TRXs in the same base station.
- the maximum ratio combining process is applied in the base station to combine uplink radio frames in diversity handover between a plurality of sectors in the base station (diversity handover between sectors in the cell).
- selective combining is applied to combining uplink radio frames of diversity handover across base stations.
- one of the best radio frames is selected by the diversity handover trunk based on the reliability information added to each path.
- each base station when the base station detects the loss of synchronization, each base station individually uses a control link to notify the processor of the exchange of the loss of synchronization.
- the transmission power control is used to control the MS uplink transmission power so that it is most efficient at a specific base station, so the base station that is not subject to transmission power control must Can be reported out of sync frequently Therefore, a large amount of control signals are transmitted between the base station and the processor, and a heavy load is applied to the processor. Disclosure of the invention
- the present invention has been made in view of the above-described circumstances, and provides a handover method capable of performing synchronization recovery even when an out-of-synchronization has occurred, and performing appropriate and efficient quality monitoring and out-of-synchronization notification. It is intended to provide.
- the present invention provides, in a first aspect,
- the mobile station receiving a radio channel of the second base station
- the present invention also provides, in a second aspect,
- the diversity handover trunk communicates with the mobile station with a delay time equal to or longer than the second delay time, assuming the possibility that the diversity handover trunk will communicate via the second base station in advance via the first base station.

- the traffic information refers to the intervals at which cells arrive and the number of cells received at one timing when ATM transmission is applied to the wired transmission path between the base station and the mobile switching center. These parameters and information are managed in the exchange processor 32 for each service.
- the parameter related to the timing correction is composed of an upper Z lower radio frame number correction value and an upper / lower radio frame offset correction value, and is stored in the storage unit 32-2 in “MSC-BS delay time management table” ( It is calculated based on Figure 5). Note that the delay time shown in FIG. 5 includes the maximum radio frame synchronization phase error between nodes (5 ms e c). In the case where another exchange is relayed between the base station 2 and the mobile communication exchange 3, the delay caused by relaying the exchange is also included.

- the downlink radio frame number correction value and the downlink radio frame offset correction value are also set to the same value.
- the upper and lower radio frame number correction values and the upper and lower radio frame number correction values are based on these values because the upper and lower values are stored in the “MSC-BS delay time management table”. Separate values are set for the radio frame offset correction value.
- the uplink wireless frame number correction value and the uplink wireless frame offset correction value are used for subtraction correction with respect to the operation reference clock output from the switching station wireless frame synchronizer 31.

- the extraction timing at that time follows the evening timing corrected using the downlink radio frame offset correction value notified by the 01 ⁇ controller 34-1.
- the radio frame number FN to be assigned is obtained by adding a downlink radio frame number correction value (“3” in the above example) to the radio frame number FN of the operation reference clock notified from the exchange radio frame synchronizer 31. It is equal to the value obtained by adding “1”, which was previously corrected as the radio frame offset timing, and then dividing the addition result by “64”.

- the process of extracting the downlink radio frame in the base station is performed by the base station radio frame. Such a process can be easily executed because the operation may be performed at the timing of the radio frame number FN of the operation reference clock notified from the system synchronizer 21 and the radio frame offset correction value “0”.
- the downlink frame duplication unit 34-4-5 duplicates the number of frames in the MSC corresponding to the number of branches during diversity handover.

- the frame is taken out at the timing. If there is no base station exchange frame to be taken out at that evening, the next time (After “1” radio frame clock cycle), and then try to extract the frame between base station exchanges again.
- the base station (base station 4 in the above example) that accommodates a branch added for diversity handover at the start of communication or during communication is a base station that serves as a reference for setting synchronization with the mobile station (the above example). In such a case, processing is performed such that the timing of the wireless transmission / reception of the subordinate base station is adjusted to the timing of the radio frame transmitted / received to / from the base station 2).
- the maximum ratio combining of diversity handovers is performed at the mobile station when each communication node constituting the mobile communication network is using a wired transmission path and performing radio frame synchronization phase adjustment with an error of less than 5 msec.
- the radio frame arriving from each base station during diversity handover varies up to about 5 msec, so it is necessary to provide a receiving buffer for that.
- the base station that follows the error generated at a maximum of 5 msec moves the radio frame offset value around the reference “0” by The purpose is to reduce the maximum to about 0.625 msec.
- the radio frame synchronization phase error between the base station and the subordinate base station, which serves as a reference for communication synchronization setting, is measured when the mobile station initiates diversity handover. That is, the synchronization phase error between the radio frame during communication in the mobile station and the radio frame such as the broadcast channel of the base station to be newly added is measured.
- This measurement result is reported to the subordinate base station via the mobile communication switching center. This allows fine adjustment of the radio frame offset value of the subordinate base station. For this fine adjustment, if the radio frame clock unit is crossed, the radio frame number FN itself in the base station is also shifted.
- the radio frames from the base stations 2 and 4 are received. Then, the user frame is processed in the mobile station 1 after the maximum ratio combining.
- the downlink frame receiving section 24-1 monitors the radio frame number FN assigned to the frame between base station switching stations stored in its internal buffer. Then, when it is detected that the frame between base stations and exchanges having the radio frame number FN to be extracted in cooperation with the downlink frame extraction control unit 24-2 is delayed, “frame delay” occurs. It is determined that it has been done. When such a determination is made, a “downlink FN correction request” is supplied to the diversity handover trunk 34 from the base station.
- the downlink radio frame number correction value is updated in the DHT control unit 34-1.
- the updated downlink wireless frame number correction value is reported to the downlink frame FN assigning unit 34-4 and is reflected in the wireless frame number FN assigned to the subsequent inter-base-station exchange frame. This processing is called a downward FN slide processing.
- This processing is performed by the diversity handover trunk 34 when the downlink frame receiving unit 24-1 and the downlink frame extraction control unit 24-2 of the base station constantly detect a frame that arrives with a delay in the extraction timing. This is a process to restore synchronization by changing the radio frame number FN assigned to the downlink.
- the downlink FN slide processing it is necessary to prevent inconsistency between the downlink radio frame numbers FN in a plurality of base stations and the information transmitted to the radio section. In order to prevent this inconsistency, it is conceivable to provide a procedure for adjusting the awareness of the FN slide amount / sliding time between base stations, but in the present embodiment, the downlink frame receiving unit 2 of each base station is considered.
- the base station that has detected the delay notifies the diversity handover trunk that is the information distribution source, and the downlink frame FN assigning section of the diversity handover trunk 3 4 — Perform FN slide processing at step 4. Therefore, the operations of both the base station and the diversity handover trunk will be described in detail.
- the base station extracts a user frame having a predetermined radio frame number FN from the reception buffer according to the operation reference clock supplied from the base station radio frame synchronizer 21.
- the downlink frame receiving section 24-1 and the downlink frame extraction control section 24-2 detect a user frame that arrives with a delay to the extraction timing, downlink FN correction request notification information is generated, and the uplink frame transmission section 24— From 10, the DHT in the MSC is notified of the FN correction information via the user signal route via the MIF 23.
- a notification method of another route it is also possible to notify by a control signal route.
- a downlink FN correction request is transmitted from the MDE in the base station to PRC-B22, and a control signal is transmitted from PRC-B22 to PRC-M32 as a control signal.
- Downlink FN correction request is notified.
- the downlink FN correction request is transmitted from the PRC-M32 in the MSC to the DHT control unit 34-1 in the DHT, and finally the downlink slide processing is executed in the downlink frame FN assigning unit 34-14 and the downlink FN is performed.
- a correction request is output.
- control signal when the control signal is used, there is a possibility that the delay time in the execution and the load on the control processor are increased.
- a user signal when a user signal is used, there are a case where a downlink FN slide request is included in an uplink user frame received from a wireless section, and a case where a notification dedicated user frame is used.
- the downlink wire out-of-sync notification user frame is transmitted independently of the transmission of the uplink user frame.
- the diversity handover trunk may be notified by including the downlink FN slide amount in the downlink wired out-of-sync notification user frame.
- the downlink frame FN providing section 34-4 uses this request as a trigger for the downlink FN slide processing.
- the downlink frame FN assigning unit 34-4 corrects the downlink wireless frame number correction value by a fixed amount (or the notified downlink FN slide amount).
- downstream FN slide width in one process is limited to a value equal to or less than a predetermined downstream FN slide step width parameter regardless of the detected delay width.
- the total downstream FN slide width from the start to the end of communication is limited to a value equal to or less than a predetermined maximum downstream FN slide width parameter.
- the controller 34-1 reports an alarm for exceeding the maximum downstream FN slide width to the switching center processor 32. After the alarm is reported, a response is returned from the exchange processor 32. Until this response is returned, the downlink FN slide processing is not executed even if a downlink FN slide request is received from the base station. That is, during this period, the descending FN slide maximum width excess alarm is stopped.
- the parameters for the downstream FN slide processing are communicated in the FN slide processing parameter management table stored in the switching center processor 32 by the FN slide width and maximum width for each service type.
- An appropriate value is managed in consideration of the effect on the medium service, and the downlink frame FN assigning section 34-4 refers to this information to execute the downlink FN slide processing.
- the FN slide width is set in consideration of the delay absorption capacity in VXC 35 and the ability to replace lost frames
- the maximum slide width is set in consideration of the effect of delays that occur in calls. do it.
- the effect of frame loss can be minimized by considering the frame period. it can.
- FN slide execution at one time is limited to the FN slide width, and if a longer arrival delay occurs on the frame receiving side, the FN slide is executed multiple times. At this time, communication will continue until all FN slides have been executed. It is not interrupted due to the loss of wired synchronization. Even during the FN-slide execution progress, if diversity handover is in progress, communication can be performed via another branch in which wired synchronization has not occurred.
- Fig. 32 shows an example of the FN slide processing parameter management table.
- the outline of the operation in the downlink FN slide process will be described with reference to FIG. In FIG. 36, it is assumed that the synchronization phase between the diversity handover trunk 34 and the base station 2 is 0. However, base station 4 has a synchronization phase error with diversity handover trunk 34, and base station 4 operation reference clock is delayed by one clock unit (OFS) with respect to base station 2 operation reference clock. . Also, the maximum fluctuation delay time from the diversity handover trunk 34 to the base stations 2 and 4 is 38 ms ec (corresponding to 23 line frame clock (FN) + 13 clock units (OFS)).
- a frame was detected at time t3, which was slightly later than time t2.
- the downlink wired out-of-sync user frame is transmitted from the base station 2 to the diversity handover trunk 34.
- This is the diversity handover when FN 10 (the user frame for downlink out-of-synchronization notification may be activated at the same time as reception without providing an identifier in the user frame and subjecting it to extraction control according to FN).
- a slide process is performed on the radio frame number FN assigned to the frame after (time t4).
- the uplink radio frame is received by the radio transmitting / receiving device 25, and the uplink frame receiving unit 2 in the MDE is received. Sent to 4-5. Then, in the uplink frame extraction control section 24-6, in the base station (base station 2 in the above example) used as a reference for the communication synchronization setting at the start of communication, the radio frame offset value OFS of the operation reference clock is set to “ The radio frame is extracted at a timing of “0”. If there is no radio frame to be extracted at that timing, the system waits until the next timing (after the “1” radio frame clock cycle) and tries to extract the radio frame again.
- the radio frame synchronization phase difference with the base station 2 (this is measured by the mobile station and notified by the mobile switching center), and the radio frame offset value ⁇ FS corresponding to The radio frame is taken out at a timing adjusted from the operation reference clock timing “0” of the station 4.
- the wireless frame number F N itself is also shifted.
- the extracted radio frame is supplied to the upstream frame processing section 24-7, decoding processing for error protection in a radio section and demodulation for radio reception are performed. Is converted into a frame between the base station and the exchange. In the upstream frame processing section 24-7, the reception state of the radio frame is evaluated as a quality parameter. Next, in the uplink frame reliability information adding section 24-8, the previously obtained quality parameter is added to the frame between the base station and the exchange.
- the radio frame number FN is assigned to the frame between the base station and the exchange.
- the assigned radio frame number F N is equal to the radio frame number F N of the operation reference clock notified from the base station radio frame synchronizer 21.
- the radio When the frame number FN is shifted, the shifted radio frame number FN is assigned.
- the frame between the base station and the exchange to which the radio frame number FN is assigned is supplied to the MSC interface device 23 in the base station via the uplink frame transmission section 24-10, and further supplied to the mobile communication exchange 3. Is done.
- the upstream frame receiving section 34-7 of the diversity handover trunk 34 receives the inter-base station exchange station frame arriving from each base station.
- the upstream frame extraction control section 34-8 also has a connection identifier corresponding to each branch based on the DHO branch information (FIG. 4) notified from the upstream frame receiving section to the DHT control section 34-1.
- the one having the radio frame number FN obtained by correcting the reference clock notified from the exchange radio frame synchronizer 31 in accordance with the radio frame number correction value is taken out and supplied to the upstream frame comparing section 34-9. If the received frame is a downlink wired out-of-synchronization notification user frame, the DHT controller 34-1 is notified.
- This extraction timing follows the timing calculated using the uplink wireless frame offset correction value notified from the DHT control unit 34-1.
- the adjustment of the extraction time is performed in order to execute the extraction in consideration of the fluctuation delay between the base station and the mobile communication switching center in addition to the processing of the upstream frame FN providing unit 24-9.
- the take-out timing of the uplink frame take-out control section 34-8 is the timing corresponding to “13” as the timing of the uplink radio frame offset correction value.
- the radio frame number FN of the frame to be taken out between the base station and the switching center is determined by the DHT control unit 34-1 in the radio frame number FN of the reference clock notified from the switching center radio frame synchronizer 31. This is the value obtained by subtracting the frame number correction value “3” (Fig. 30).
- the mobile switching center 3 monitors the radio frame number FN assigned to the inter-base-station switching center frame stored in the buffer of the uplink frame receiving section 34-7. If it is detected that the frame between base station exchanges having the radio frame number FN to be taken out is steadily delayed, the base station exchange frame Judge that a delay has occurred, send a frame synchronization correction report between base stations and exchanges to the DHT control unit, and update the uplink wireless frame number correction value.
- the subsequent radio frame number FN value to be extracted is changed to an appropriate value.
- This process is called “upbound FN slide process”. Note that the frequency of taking out frames between base station exchanges (in the case of transmitting frames between base station exchanges via ATM, the number of cells taken out and the cell interval) is determined by the traffic information notified from the DHT control unit 34-1. Is determined according to
- This processing is performed when the upstream frame receiving section 34-7 and the upstream frame fetch control section 34-8 detect a frame that arrives with a delay in the fetch timing and recover frame synchronization in the subsequent section between base station exchanges. This is the processing to be performed.
- transmission power control is performed on the assumption that all branches in the section between base stations and exchanges contribute to the combined gain of diversity handover. Therefore, even if one of a plurality of branches is delayed, this is used as a trigger for the FN slide processing. If there are multiple delayed branches, the up-link FN slide processing is executed in accordance with the branch with a large delay width.
- the parameters used in the upstream FN slide processing include a parameter that limits the upstream FN slide width in a single processing regardless of the detected delay width (an upstream FN slide step width parameter). In addition, a parameter that limits the total upstream FN slide width from the start to the end of communication (a parameter of the maximum upstream FN slide width) is used.
- the DHT control unit 34-1 reports an upstream maximum FN slide maximum width alarm to the switching center processor 32. After the alarm is reported, a response is returned from the switching center processor 32. Until this response is returned, the uplink FN slide processing is executed even if a frame delay is detected in the subsequent reception frame extraction. Not done. That is, during this period, the upward FN slide maximum width excess alarm is stopped.

Specifically, if there is CRC OK, the one with the highest received SIR value is selected, and all candidates are CRC NG. In this case, the one with the highest received SIR value is selected.
- the frame data may be synthesized by comparing bit data between a plurality of frames, performing a majority decision on bit values and performing a logical operation. However, if the out-of-synchronization determination bit is set in the reliability information of all wired frames arriving from the branch, the process of out-of-synchronization is performed.

- the frame identification information is applied only between the BS and the MSC, and the delay difference that differs for each base station is different from the MSC. Absorb by BS. Also, since the mobile station can receive the radio frame from each BS at a synchronized timing, the number of buffers can be further reduced. Also, the frame identification information is used only between the mobile communication switching center and the base station, and does not need to be set in a radio section, so that the wireless transmission capacity can be used effectively.
- the communication control unit notifies the frame receiving device of an appropriate transmission delay, and the frame extraction control unit extracts frames according to the service type. Communication with an appropriate delay every time is possible.
- the frame fetching unit detects out-of-synchronization of the received frame, the frame fetch timing is shifted by a necessary frame period, so that synchronization can be recovered from the subsequent frames. Can be continued without disconnecting communication.
- each base station notifies a diversity handover trunk of a loss of synchronization using a communication link, and notifies the processor after determining the loss of synchronization in the diversity handover trunk.
- the amount of signals used for notification of loss of synchronization to the processor and the load on the processor can be reduced.
- the transmitting device 100 is provided with a clock circuit 101 for generating a clock signal CL1
- the receiving device 120 is provided with a clock circuit 102 for generating a clock signal CL2.
- the phases of the clock signals CL1 and CL2 are asynchronous. It is also assumed that the maximum fluctuation delay between transmitting apparatus 100 and receiving apparatus 120 is unknown. In this case, a method of synchronizing a frame transmitted from transmitting apparatus 100 in receiving apparatus 120 will be described.
- the phase of clock signal CL1 is added to the frame as radio frame number FN.
- the receiving apparatus 120 receives the transmitted frame, reads out the radio frame number FN added to the received frame, and calculates the difference from the phase of the clock signal CL2. This calculation is repeated one or more times for frames transmitted from past transmitters, and A value obtained by adding a safety value to the maximum difference as necessary is stored as a correction value. For the frames arriving thereafter, the frames are extracted using the clock signal CL2 and this correction value. This correction value can be updated at any time with the latest reception history.
- the correction value is “9” obtained by adding “2” to “7” which is the maximum value of the two phase differences.
- FIG. 39 (case 1), an example in which various trunks are arranged in one mobile communication switching center has been described.
- the present invention is applicable even if the mobile communication switching center is divided into a plurality of blocks and trunks are arranged in each block to disperse the functions, as shown in Case 2 in the figure. Not even.
- the mobile switching center is divided into MSC-1 and MSC-1.
- the position and number of the MSC-1 are not particularly limited, and they may be arranged near the base station BS, and a plurality of MSC-1 may be connected to one MSC-2.
