一般配置基站的方法是事先规划系统可能部署的基站, 然后在 AP上为 这些基站配置传输、 无线等参数, 一般的说, 如果需要部署 N个基站, 则 对应地, 也需要在 APC (接入点控制器)上配置 N个传输节点, N个基站 等信息。 这些配置一般在基站准备部署的时候就已经确定。
但是随着 H基站 (femoto基站, 家用基站)概念的引入, 原有的做法不 太适用。 这类基站一般具有个数较多, 覆盖范围小的特点。 并且这类 H基 站和普通的基站的不同, 一般具有以下的特殊之处:

2 ) H基站配置参数简单, 基本雷同。 部分参数可固定配置, 部分参数 可以自适应生成, 如通过欧中算法生成。 因此无须路测或者调整;
3 ) H基站不是始终在线的, 而是具有一定的概率接入特性即统计特性, 例如忙时可能开机的 H基站很多, 但是也未必是全部开机。 如果按 ADSL (非对称数字用户环路)的经验数据, 可能是 1: 4的收敛比, 即忙时也只 有 1/4的用户开机。 平时, 例如白天则开机的更少。

该传输网絡可以使用广域网, 也可以使用私有网络, 这个取决于运营商 本身的需求。
在 UMTS系统中, 该 AP对应于 RNC, 在 GSM系统中, 该 AP对应于 BSC, 在 LTE系统中, 该 AP对应于 MME。
4 ) AP在 H基站部署之前, 已经将其需要使用无线资源, 例如小区及 其相关配置等, 以及传输资源等预先进行配置。 通常传输资源确定后, 则传 输资源和无线资源的关系也确定了。 因此 H基站一旦连接到指定的传输端 口, 则其在 AP使用的无线资源也已经确定。 AP上的传输资源可以使用传 输层标识来表示。 传输层标识指的是标识 AP侧接入点的标识。 它包括但是 不限于以下的情况, 在 SCTP (流控制传输协议)连接的情况下, 指的是 AP 侧的偶联标识; 如果采用 UDP (用户数据报协议)连接则指的是 AP的 IP 地址, 以及对应的 UDP端口; 如果采用的是 TCP (传输控制协议)连接则 指的 AP的 IP地址, 以及对应的 TCP端口。 5 )在 HCS上事先配置在 AP已经分配好的资源, 由于通常传输资源和 无线资源互相关联, 确定传输资源后就能确定对应的无线资源, 所以 HCS 上只需要配置在 AP上传输资源信息即可, 例如配置传输层标识即可。
本发明资源动态分配方法包含如下步骤:
步骤 110, 在系统中引入 H基站配置服务器(H基站 Configuration Server, 简称 HCS ) 。
其中, 该 H基站配置服务器全局有一个或者几个。
HCS上包含 H基站的资源配置信息。
步骤 120, 在 H基站的 AP (包括但是不限于 R C )上预先配置 H基站 接入后需要的资源, 包括传输资源, 无线资源如小区信息等。 一般传输资源 和小区等无线资源具有——对应关系。 在 HCS上保存的资源配置信息包含 所有 AP的传输资源信息。
步骤 130, H基站启动以后向 HCS申请资源, HCS根据该申请, 为 H 基站分配资源,发送对应的资源配置信息至 H基站,资源配置信息中包括 H 基站连接哪个 AP等信息。
H基站向 HCS申请配置资源, HCS从本地管理的资源中, 获得一个现 在尚未被使用的资源告知 H基站,包括需要哪个 AP,采用什么连接等信息。 HCS并且标记该资源为被分配。
其中, HCS将资源标记为可用或不可用, 通常资源被占用时标记为不 可用, 未被占用时标记为可用。 为 H基站分配资源时, 不分配标记为不可 用的资源。
如果有必要, HCS可以根据 AP的繁忙情况, 即根据 AP的负荷进行分 配,选择一个较为空闲的 AP, 如选择负荷最少的 AP的资源分配给 H基站, 从而达到负荷分担的目的。 步骤 140, H基站获得 HCS告知的资源后, 即收到资源配置信息后,根 据资源配置信息中的相关信息, 向 AP发起连接, AP通知 HCS该资源被占 用, 及占用该资源的 H基站的标识(ID ) ; HCS标记该资源为不可用。 步骤 150, H基站和 AP中断连接时, AP通知 HCS,和该连接关联的资 源已经被释放, HCS将此资源标记为可用。
一般的说, 该资源在 HCS上采用偶联作为标识即可, 该偶联标识在 AP 上和小区信息等无线资源具有对应关系。 当然也可以用其他的传输层标识, 如接入点的 IP地址和 UDP端口, 或 IP地址和 TCP端口等。
图 5是 H基站向 HCS申请资源的流程图, 包含如下步骤:
510, H基站向域名服务器(DNS )发送域名解析请求, 请求 HCS的 IP 地址;
520, DNS向 H基站返回 HCS的 IP地址;
当 H基站上配置 HCS的 IP地址时, 上述步骤 510, 520也可以省略。
530, H基站向 HCS发起资源申请, 请求分配资源, 即请求连接的 AP 信息;
540, HCS检查空闲的 AP资源, 主要包括:
查找有没有可用的 AP资源;
根据 AP的负荷情况,尽量选择一个空闲可用的 AP,这需要综合 AP本 身的能力, AP已经接入的 H基站负荷等情况进行综合判断; 如选择负荷最 少的 AP的资源分配给 H基站, 从而达到负荷分担的目的。
550, HCS选择了合适的 AP资源分配给 H基站, 并将对应的资源配置 信息告知 H基站。 其中必须告知 H基站的资源配置信息是需要连接的 AP 的传输层标识, 如接入点的 IP地址和端口号信息, 或接入点的偶联标识; 可选告知的 H基站的资源配置信息是 H基站本端使用 IP地址,端口号信息, H基站的小区 ID等 H基站认为必须的信息。 同时 HCS将分配给 H基站的 资源标记为已分配。
图 6所示为 HCS向 AP发起连接, AP通知 HCS, H基站的占用资源的 流程图, 包括以下步骤:
610, H基站根据从 HCS获取的资源配置信息, 如根据其中包含的传输 层标识, 该传输层标识包括但不限于 H基站需要连接的 IP地址和端口号, 向 AP发起传输层链接;
620, AP响应 H基站的传输层连接;
630, AP通过传输层的连接获知 H基站使用的资源信息, 并告知 HCS 对应的资源 (即 H基站建立连接使用的资源) 已经被占用;
640, HCS将此资源标记为不可用, 以后有新的 H基站来 HCS申清资 源的时候, 该资源不会被分配;
650, H基站工作完毕, 正常或者异常释放传输层连接;
660, AP通知 HCS, 该连接对应的资源已经被释放;
670, HCS将该连接对的资源标记为可用。
进一步地, 如果一个资源到达被分配状态后 (该资源被 HCS标记为已 分配)的相当长时间内(比如预先指定的时间)也没有进入被使用状态, 即 HCS在指定时间内未收到 AP上报该资源被占用,则认为该资源再次进入可 用状态, HCS将该资源标记为可用。
为了防止 HCS上分配给 H基站的资源,和 H基站实际使用的资源不一 致, 例如连接到了错误的 AP, 还可以增加 AP对 H基站的校验过程, H基 站向 AP发起传输层连接时或建立传输层连接后, H基站向 AP上报本身的 ID, AP再通过该 ID向 HCS索要其为该 H基站 ID分配的资源信息, 并查 看是否一致, 如果不一致, 则直接将 H基站的连接断开。 可参考图 7, 具体 包含如下步骤:
710, H基站向 AP发起传输层连接请求, 请求中携带其自身的 H基站 ID号;
720, AP向 HCS请求 HCS为该 H基站分配的资源信息,请求中携带该 H基站的 H基站 ID; 730, HCS向 AP返回给 H基站分配的资源配置信息, 该资源配置信息 中主要包含传输层标识;
740, AP检查该资源配置信息和 H基站发起的连接时使用的资源配置 信息是否一致, 即检查 H基站发起连接时使用的资源是否和 HCS分配的资 源一致;
750, 如果一致, 则 AP接受 H基站的连接请求; 如果不一致, 则拒绝, 并且中断底层连接。
进一步地, AP和 HCS定时进行握手确认 AP的状态, 如果在一段时间 内(如预先指定的时间内) HCS和 AP握手不成功, 则认为该 AP已经离线, 后续在 H基站接入时, HCS也不会分配和该 AP相关的资源给 H基站。 如 图 8所示, 包含如下步骤:
810, HCS定时向 AP发送握手;
820, AP向 HCS发送握手响应。
AP和 HCS的握手也可以是 AP定时向 HCS发送握手, HCS发送响应。
本发明还提出一种资源动态分配系统, 包括家用基站、接入点和家用基 站配置服务器, 三者通过传输网络相连, 其中:
家用基站配置服务器 HCS上保存 AP的资源配置信息;
HCS接收家用基站申请资源的请求, 并为家用基站分配资源, 向家用 基站返回对应的资源配置信息;
家用基站根据所述资源配置信息, 向 AP发起连接。
本发明所述方法, 与现有技术相比, 节省了 AP资源, 现有技术中在网 规时要为所有基站配置资源, 而本发明只在基站接入时动态配置资源,在 H 基站大量随机接入的时候, 通过 HCS来分配资源, 有效的通过统计复用增 加了 AP的资源使用效率; 可以简化对家用基站的配置, 并且在不同的 AP 之间有效的进行负担, 甚至容错处理。
工业实用性
通过本发明所述方法, AP可以仅仅配置比实际的 H基站数目少的多的 传输资源、 无线资源, 达到统计复用的目的。 同时, 也不需要在 H基站部 署的时候, 即固定为其配置好连接的资源, 釆用动态自动分配的方法, 也筒 化人工配置 H基站的负担。 HCS还可以有效的对 AP进行负荷分担,容灾等 手段。
