Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method related to a mobile radio system that enables soft handover to be performed within the system and a program unit related to cell management in such a system.
  • a mobile radio system comprises a number of radio base stations each for providing communication services to a mobile station within a corresponding area called cell .
  • Figure 1 shows some of the cells C of a mobile radio system.
  • a dedicated radio channel is set up to a mobile station for communication service.
  • Figure 2 shows the mobile station MS and its dedicated radio channel DCH to a radio base station BTS in the fixed part of a cellular mobile radio system.
  • the fixed part comprises more nodes than the radio base station BTS that serve to connect the radio base station BTS to other communication systems and that control the communication, however, these further nodes are not shown in figure 2.
  • the dedicated radio channel DCH is set up in just one cell, which is the serving cell Cl shown in figure 1.
  • the serving cell Cl shown in figure 1.
  • C2 can provide better radio link quality then the cell Cl handling the dedicated radio channel DCH, a new dedicated radio channel is set up in the target cell C2 for the communication with the mobile station MS.
  • the communication with the mobile station MS is switched over to new dedicated radio channel DCH and the old one in the prior cell Cl is released.
  • the switch of serving cell Cl,C2 for handling the communication is called handover.
  • the radio environments of the mobile station MS changes due to the traffic load of the mobile radio system varies and due to the mobile station MS moving around and the radio propagation thereby changes .
  • the dedicated radio channel DCH is set up in the right cell.
  • the mobile station MS performs measurements on the radio link quality on downlink radio channels, i.e. radio channels in the direction to the mobile station MS, of candidate cells C as well as the serving cell Cl .
  • these measurements require receiving and computation capacity from the mobile station MS. They also need to be updated often in order to correspond to the changing radio environments. If too few cells are measured there is a risk that the right cell C is not detected on one hand.
  • the operator of the mobile radio system provides a list of neighbour cells NC for each of the cells C, Cl, C2 in the system.
  • the mobile radio system communicates this list of neighbour cells NC with the mobile stations MS. Thereby, the mobile station MS having a dedicated radio channel within the serving cell Cl is informed on which cells NC is shall make radio link measurements.
  • more than one cell C can support a dedicated radio channel DCH to the mobile station MS.
  • a new cell C shall support the dedicated radio channel the support is maintained in the previous cell at least until the dedicated radio channel is established in the new cell C. This is called soft handover.
  • the handover mechanism used in TDMA mobile radio systems is sometimes referred to as hard handover because the dedicated radio channel in the previous cell is released before the dedicated radio channel in the new cell is established.
  • a basis for enabling the soft handover is the fact that the same dedicated radio channel DCH is used by all cells supporting the communication. This in turn enables the dedicated radio channel DCH to be maintained at the previous cell while the dedicated radio channel DCH is established in a new cell.
  • the cells supporting the mobile station MS with the dedicated radio channel DCH define an Active Set.
  • Figure 3 shows the cells C of a CDMA system and an Active Set AS of three cells are given a striped hatch mark.
  • the mobile station MS measures the radio link quality on the pilot channel of the cells in the Active Set AS . In the same way the mobile station MS also measures the radio link quality of cells C that are candidates to be included in the Active Set AS.
  • the candidate cells C to be measured by the mobile station MS are referred to as a Monitored Set MoS, se figure 3.
  • the cells C use the same frequency band for communication. It is therefore even more essential to find the right cell or cells for serving the mobile station MS compared to systems based on TDMA or FDMA technology. If the mobile station MS is not served by the right cell or cells, its transmission power will be higher then necessary. This is due to the serving cell adjusts the power of its mobile stations MS in order to receive the same power level from all its mobile stations MS. When the right cell, i.e. the cell receiving the highest signal strength from the mobile station MS, is not serving the mobile station MS it cannot adjust the output power of the mobile station MS. The power will be adjusted by the serving cells that experience a lower signal strengt. The mobile station MS thus unnecessary increases the noise level in the right cell and that in turn reduces the capacity for uplink reception in the right cell.
  • IS-95 Interim Standard 95
  • the fixed part of the Mobile Radio System informs the mobile station MS of which cells are included in the Monitored Set MoS.
  • new cells C are added to the Monitored Set MoS or when a cell C is released from the Active Set AS cells C are also excluded from the Monitored Set MoS.
  • the number of cells C in the Monitored Set MoS will be large when all neighbour cells NC are included in the Monitored Set MoS.
  • the IS-95 standard specifies that all radio base stations BTS are given the same pilot code and are mutually synchronised in absolute time; however, the spreading code phase is shifted between the cells C.
  • the mobile station MS is informed of the phase shift of the relevant cells C and when it has synchronised to any of the cells C, it quickly tunes into the phase of the pilot code of any of the other cells C.
  • WCDMA Wideband Code Division Multiple Access
  • 3GPP Third Generation Partnership Project
  • FDD mode of UTRAN UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network
  • the standard for WCDMA does not require the radio base stations BTS to be synchronised in absolute time and the cells C are all given separate pilot codes. In fact the different pilot codes are the significant recognition mark of the different cells C.
  • a mobile station MS shall measure a specific cell C it first have to synchronise to the specific pilot code transmitted in the cell C of interest.
  • the Active Set AS can comprise up to 6 cells C.
  • the WCDMA standard also specifies that the fixed part of the mobile radio system shall inform the mobile station MS of the Monitored Set MoS. Including a large number of cells C in the Monitored Set MoS will put a heavy burden on the mobile station MS for measuring the radio link qualities, and this will reduce the frequency at which the measurements of the cells are updated.
  • the present application addresses the problem of identifying the right cells to be incorporated in the Active Set, when the capacity for measuring the radio link quality of the cells is limited.
  • the present invention solves the problem by a method for finding the most appropriate cells to be incorporated in the Monitored Set. From the Monitored Set new cells to be incorporated in the Active Set will be selected.
  • the inventive method is based on the insight that the area in which a mobile station will be located when served by an Active Set is more restricted than the total service area of each cell within the Active Set, and that in the restricted area the radio interaction with surrounding cells will not correspond to the interactions that may occur in the total area of the cell or cells of the Active Set.
  • an Active Set is determined for providing the mobile station with a dedicated radio channel. When the mobile station will be served by the Active Set, the radio link will effect other cells and will be effected by other cells. This radio interaction with other cells is estimated according to the method.
  • a Monitored Set is determined, based on the estimation thus produced, and comprising the cells that have the strongest interaction with the mobile station. The mobile station will measure the radio link quality of the cells of the Monitored Set, when the mobile is served by the Active Set.
  • the invention is also related to a system arranged to perform the inventive method.
  • the invention is also related to a program unit for carrying out steps similar to the method.
  • the inventive method has the advantage of including just those cells in a Monitored Set that are truly candidates for being included in the Active Set. Unsignificant cells are thus not measured. Thereby the Monitored Set will be measured more quickly, and that in turn enables an early handover decision.
  • Another advantage of a limited number of cells being included in the Monitored Set is that the control communications between the mobile station and the fixed part of the mobile radio system will be less when less cells need be reported over the radio link.
  • the radio link protocol for communicating sets a limit on the number of cells possible to inform to the mobile station for measuring purposes, i.e. the number of cells in the Monitored Set and the Active Set . DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

  • Figure 5b shows the same cells C as figure 3, however, a third Active Set AS3 serves the mobile station MS with a dedicated radio channel DCH in all its cells C.
  • the change of Active Set is caused by the mobile station MS roaming in the area covered by the cells C which implies changes of the radio environments of the mobile station.
  • a new cell C is considered to provide good radio quality it is included in the Active Set which then is called the third Active Set AS3 and differs from the second Active Set AS2 only in that the additional cell C is included.
  • An other reason for including the new cell C in the third Active Set AS3 is that the transmission from the mobile station MS would otherwise jam the uplink reception in the new cell.
  • the mobile transmission power can be adjusted in response to the power received from it in the new cell .
  • Figure 4 shows a first Active Set comprising just one cell and all its neighbour cells C.

  • the measured quality of the cells in the Monitored Set MoSl, MoS2 , MoS3 compared to that of the cells of the Active Set AS1, AS2 , AS3 determines whether new cells C should be included in the Active Set AS1, AS2, AS3 or not.

Initially Active Sets AS2 comprising two cells are therefore determined. Starting by the first cell recorded in the database new Active Sets AS2 of two cells are formed by combining said first cell and each of its neighbour cells C . For each cell c in the record new Active Sets AS2 of two cells C are formed correspondingly. However, previously recorded combinations are not recorded again. Secondly, all Active Sets AS3 comprising three cells C are • determined. Starting from the first recorded Active Set AS2 of two cells C all combinations with any of the neighbour cells C to the two cells are recorded as an Active Set AS3.

Abstract

Dans un système radio mobile supportant un transfert souple, plusieurs cellules servant de support à un canal radio dédié équipé d'une station mobile sont appelées groupe actif (AS). La station mobile évalue la qualité de liaison radio d'un groupe de cellules appelées groupe surveillé (Mos) et qui sont des candidats destinés à être introduits dans le groupe actif. Si plusieurs cellules sont introduites dans l'ensemble surveillé, le temps permettant d'effectuer une évaluation correcte de toutes les cellules va être long, et le temps d'exécution du transfert prolongé. Cependant, la cellule adéquate doit être introduite dans le groupe surveillé afin d'être introduite dans le groupe actif. Selon l'invention, les cellules présentant de bonnes propriétés radio dans la zone de localisation de la station mobile (ELA2) sont sélectionnées pour le groupe surveillé, et comme cette zone est plus restreinte que toute la zone de service des cellules dans le groupe actif, seul un faible nombre de cellules doit être introduit.
