Definitions
- the present invention relates to a terminal device whose handover is controlled based on the reception quality of a signal from a base station.
- HeNB indoor home base station
- eNB normal base station
- the HeNB has a function of restricting accessible terminals (UEs), and the UE can connect only to an HeNB with access permission. For this reason, the UE cannot connect to the HeNB (except in an emergency) if it does not have access permission even if it detects a HeNB with good reception quality.
- UEs accessible terminals
- the cell ID includes a physical cell ID (PCI) that identifies an eNB locally, a cell global ID (CGI) that can be uniquely identified by all eNBs, and the like. In this case, the latter CGI is used to uniquely identify the eNB.
- PCI physical cell ID
- CGI cell global ID
- the UE collates the CGI list (white list) of the accessible HeNB notified from the network with the CGI received from the broadcast information. Then, if the detected CGI of the HeNB is included in the white list, it is determined that the HeNB is accessible.
- the UE can receive CSG cell-specific services such as high-speed, high-quality communication and low-cost communication by connecting to the CSG cell. Therefore, it can be said that the UE is preferably controlled so as to connect to the CSG cell as much as possible (handover from the eNB to the HeNB) if access is permitted.
- CSG cell-specific services such as high-speed, high-quality communication and low-cost communication
- the UE When the UE performs handover between the eNB and the eNB, for example, first, by measuring the reception quality of signals from eNBs around the UE (by performing measurement) and detecting an eNB with good reception quality, Attempt handover to eNB. However, when the UE performs handover from the eNB to the HeNB, the handover is not performed only by detecting a HeNB with good reception quality, and a process for confirming whether or not the HeNB serving as the handover destination is permitted to access is required.
- FIG. 31 is an explanatory diagram showing configurations of a macro cell and a CSG cell
- FIG. 32 is a sequence diagram of a handover to the CSG cell.
- eNB base station
- a setting signal (measurement control) necessary for reception quality measurement is transmitted from the eNB to the UE (S100).
- the UE measures the reception quality of signals from neighboring base stations (eNB and HeNB) based on this setting signal (S101).
- PCI of eNB around the UE and HeNB is detected.
- this UE has a function of determining whether the detected base station is an eNB or a HeNB based on the PCI.
- a reception quality measurement result notification (measurement report) is transmitted from the UE to the eNB (S102).
- eNB reception quality of the signal from the currently connected base station
- HeNB reception quality of the signal from the neighboring base station
- the reception quality of the HeNB exceeds the reception quality of the eNB
- the reception quality of the HeNB having good reception quality and the PCI of the HeNB are notified to the eNB as a measurement result notification signal (measurement report).
- setting information (measurement configuration) necessary for access confirmation is transmitted from the eNB to the UE (S103).
- the PCI included in the measurement report is the HeNB PCI
- the eNB is in the vicinity notified by the measurement report. It cannot be determined which HeNB the base station (HeNB) is. Therefore, after receiving CGI which is unique cell identification information from the broadcast information transmitted from the HeNB and confirming access by checking the white list of the UE, the UE again measures the reception quality of the HeNB ( (Measurement) is performed (S104).
- a notification (measurement report) of the result of access confirmation is transmitted from the UE to the eNB (S105).
- the CGI of the HeNB is notified by the measurement report together with the result of measuring the reception quality of the HeNB again.
- the UE has history information (fingerprint) of accessible HeNB detected in the past, refer to this fingerprint.
- This history information includes, for example, position information (GPS information) of PCI, CGI, and HeNB, which are cell identification information.
- GPS information position information
- CGI CGI
- HeNB HeNB
- a handover request (handover request) is transmitted from the eNB to the HeNB (S106).
- the eNB transmits a handover request signal (handover request) to the base station (HeNB) that is the handover destination via the HeNBGW or MME that is the access gateway.
- the HeNB determines that the UE can be handed over, it transmits a handover response signal (handover response) to the eNB via the HeNBGW or MME (S107).
- the eNB that has received the handover response transmits a handover execution command signal (handover command) to the UE (S108).
- This handover command includes the identification ID (C-RNTI) of the UE in the HeNB and information necessary for the UE to perform uplink synchronization processing.
- the UE that has received the handover command transmits a random access preamble to the HeNB and performs uplink synchronization processing (synchronization) (S109).
- the HeNB that has received the random access preamble performs uplink allocation for the UE and notifies the UE of allocation information (S110).
- the UE transmits a handover confirm signal to the HeNB (S111), and notifies that the handover processing in the UE is completed.
- Such handover control to the CSG cell has been proposed in 3GPP and the like (for example, see Non-Patent Document 1).
- an environment in which the CSG cell and the macro cell use the same frequency is considered.
- the same frequency there is a problem that the signal of the UE connected to the CSG cell interferes with the signal of the UE connected to the macro cell.
- the amount of interference in the uplink (uplink: UL) varies depending on the position of the UE in the macro cell. For example, when the UE is located in the vicinity of the eNB, the UL interference given to the macro cell is large. On the other hand, when the UE is located at the macro cell edge, the UL interference given to the macro cell is small. .
- the UE is controlled so as to connect with the CSG cell as much as possible if it is accessible. Therefore, conventionally, in the handover procedure to the CSG cell, a process for offsetting the measurement result of the reception quality of the HeNB that can be accessed when the reception quality is measured has been performed. By the process of applying the offset, the HeNB is controlled to be easily selected as a handover candidate, that is, to be easily handed over to the HeNB.
- FIG. 33 is a diagram showing a conventional offset process.
- handover to the HeNB is started when the following equation 1 is satisfied as a result of reception quality measurement.
- the UE When an aggressive offset value is used, the UE is controlled to make it easier to select a HeNB. Therefore, even when the UE is located far from the HeNB (when the reception quality of the HeNB is low), the large offset value is added, so that the condition of Equation 2 is satisfied, and the HeNB Handover to is performed. In this case, the transmission power of the UE (uplink transmission power) is controlled to be increased by the amount of the UE located far from the HeNB. If it does so, especially when UE is located in the vicinity of a macrocell base station (eNB), the interference of UL given to a macrocell (UL interference with respect to other UE connected to eNB) will become large.
- eNB macrocell base station
- the UE when a negative offset value is used, the UE is controlled so that it is somewhat difficult to select a HeNB. Therefore, when the UE is a little far away from the HeNB (when the reception quality of the HeNB is small), only a small offset value is added, so that the condition of the above Equation 2 is not satisfied, and handover to the HeNB is performed. I will not.
- the UE when the UE is located at the cell edge, the UL interference given to the macro cell is small (compared to the case where the UE is located near the eNB). Therefore, in this case, the tolerance for UL interference is large (UL interference is unlikely to occur even if the UE transmission power is increased).
- An object of the present invention is to provide a terminal device capable of performing appropriate handover control using an offset value corresponding to the reception quality of a signal from a base station.
- One aspect of the present invention is a terminal device, which has a macro cell reception quality that is a reception quality of a signal from a macro cell base station and a reception quality of a signal from a small cell base station arranged in the macro cell.

- Inter-frequency measurement for a CSG cell having a service band different from that of the macro cell outside the service band of the macro cell, interference between the eNB 200 and the neighboring base station to be measured does not exist. Therefore, it is not necessary to correct the offset value according to the position of the UE 100, that is, the reception quality of the eNB.
- the UE 100 when the UE 100 performs only the above-mentioned inter-frequency measurement, the UE 100 does not include the offset correction value in the measurement control so that the UE 100 does not perform the offset correction.
- the maximum transmission power of the HeNB 300 may not be controlled using the over request.
- FIG. 7 is a sequence diagram for explaining the operation of the communication system according to the present embodiment.
- a setting signal (measurement control) necessary for reception quality measurement (measurement) is transmitted from the eNB 200 to the UE 100 (S10).
- the setting signal transmitted from the eNB 200 includes offset value, correction values ⁇ , ⁇ , and threshold information.
- UE100 measures the reception quality of the signal from a surrounding base station (eNB200 or HeNB300) based on this setting signal (S11). By this measurement, PCI of eNB200 and HeNB300 around UE100 is detected. Moreover, this UE100 determines whether the detected base station is eNB200 or HeNB300 based on PCI (S12). And when the detected base station is HeNB300, correction
- the reception quality of the HeNB 300 exceeds the reception quality of the eNB 200, the reception quality of the eNB 200, the reception quality of the HeNB 300, and the PCI of the HeNB 300 are notified to the eNB 200 as a measurement result notification signal (measurement report) (S15).
- the UE 100 If the UE 100 has a fingerprint, it can be determined whether or not the detected HeNB 300 is an accessible base station of the UE 100. Therefore, only the accessible HeNB 300 is selected and the measurement report is sent to the eNB 200. Can be notified.
- setting information (measurement configuration) necessary for access confirmation is transmitted from the eNB 200 to the UE 100 (S16).
- UE100 receives CGI by the alerting
- the notification (measurement report) of the result of the access confirmation is transmitted from the UE 100 to the eNB 200 (S20).
- the CGI of the HeNB 300 is notified by the measurement report together with the result of measuring the reception quality of the HeNB 300 again.
- ENB200 determines whether it should hand over to HeNB300 based on the measurement report received from UE100 (S21). When it is determined that the handover should be performed, a handover request (handover request) is transmitted from the eNB 200 to the HeNB 300 (S22). In this case, the eNB 200 transmits a handover request signal (handover request) to the base station (HeNB 300) that is the handover destination via the HeNBGW or MME that is the access gateway. Although not essential, this handover request includes control information for controlling the maximum transmission power of the HeNB 300 according to the reception quality of the eNB 200.
- the HeNB 300 When the HeNB 300 that has received this handover request determines that the UE 100 can be handed over (S23), the HeNB 300 transmits a handover response signal (handover response) to the eNB 200 via the HeNBGW or the MME ( S24).
- the eNB 200 that has received this handover response transmits a handover execution command signal (handover command) to the UE 100 (S25).
- This handover command includes the identification ID (C-RNTI) of the UE 100 in the HeNB 300 and information necessary for the UE 100 to perform uplink synchronization processing.
- the UE 100 that has received the handover command transmits an uplink synchronization signal (synchronization) to the HeNB 300 (S26).
- the HeNB 300 although not essential, it is additionally determined whether or not an instruction to increase transmission power is included in the handover request (S27). If the handover request includes an instruction to increase the transmission power, control for temporarily increasing the transmission power is performed based on the instruction (S28). And HeNB300 performs the allocation for the uplinks of UE100, and notifies allocation information to UE100 (S29). When the UE 100 is successfully connected to the HeNB 300, the UE 100 transmits a handover confirm signal to the HeNB 300 (S30), and notifies that the handover process in the UE 100 is completed.
- handover control can be performed using an appropriate offset value in consideration of uplink interference from the UE 100 to the base station.
- the UE 100 corrects the offset value according to the reception quality from the macro cell, and the offset process is performed using the offset value. Then, after performing the offset process, the reception quality from the macro cell and the reception quality from the CSG cell are compared, and the handover of the UE 100 is controlled in the eNB 200 based on the comparison result. Specifically, when the CSG cell reception quality is higher than the macro cell reception quality, control is performed to perform handover.
- the offset value is corrected using the small correction value ⁇ .
- the CSG cell reception quality is low to some extent (such as when the UE 100 is located far from the HeNB 300)
- control is performed so that handover is not performed.
- the handover is performed only when the UE 100 is located near the base station to some extent.
- transmission power when UE100 transmits a signal to a base station can be suppressed relatively small. Therefore, when UE 100 is located near the base station, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of uplink interference from UE 100 to the base station due to the large transmission power of UE 100. That is, handover control can be performed using an appropriate offset value that takes into account uplink interference from the UE 100 to the base station.
- the offset value is corrected using a large correction value ⁇ .
- the handover is controlled.
- the UE 100 is away from the base station (eNB 200 or HeNB 300)
- uplink interference from the UE 100 to the base station hardly occurs even if the transmission power of the UE 100 is large to some extent.
- the handover is controlled so that the UE 100 is located far from the base station, the probability that the UE 100 misses the handover opportunity can be kept low. That is, handover control can be performed using an appropriate offset value that takes into account uplink interference from the UE 100 to the base station.
- the offset value is corrected using a small correction value ⁇ (first correction value) for the vicinity of the base station and a large correction value ⁇ (second correction value) for the cell edge.
- These correction values ⁇ and ⁇ are transmitted from the eNB 200 to the UE 100.
- the offset value is corrected using the correction value ⁇ , and when the reception quality from the macro cell is low (less than the threshold value T1), the correction is performed.
- the offset value is corrected using the value ⁇ . In this way, handover control can be performed using an appropriate offset value considering uplink interference from the UE 100 to the base station.
- correction values ⁇ and ⁇ (first correction value and second correction value) can be transmitted from eNB 200 to UE 100 using a reception quality measurement setting signal. Therefore, there is no need to newly provide a correction value notification signaling. Further, since this setting signal is transmitted individually to each UE 100, it is possible to set the correction values ⁇ and ⁇ for each UE 100.
- correction value (alpha), (beta) and a threshold value may be notified by the alerting
- This is different from the first embodiment in which the correction values ⁇ and ⁇ and the threshold value are notified.
- FIG. 8 is a block diagram showing a configuration of UE 100 of the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 8, in UE 100 of the present embodiment, broadcast signal receiving section 115 for receiving a broadcast signal transmitted from eNB 200 is added to the configuration of the first embodiment.
- FIG. 9 is a block diagram showing a configuration of eNB 200 according to the present embodiment.
- a notification signal transmission unit 210 for transmitting a notification signal to the UE 100 is added to the configuration of the first embodiment.
- the correction values ⁇ and ⁇ included in the notification signal are stored in the correction value storage unit 211.
- FIG. 10 is a sequence diagram for explaining the operation of the communication system of the present embodiment.
- correction values ⁇ , ⁇ and threshold values are notified to all UEs 100 in the macro cell by a broadcast signal from the eNB 200 (S31). That is, UE100 receives the alerting
- the setting signals individually transmitted to the UE 100 do not include correction values ⁇ and ⁇ and threshold information.
- a correction value (a 1st correction value and a 2nd correction value) can be transmitted from eNB200 to UE100 using an alerting signal. Therefore, there is no need to newly provide a correction value notification signaling. In this case, since the setting signal for reception quality measurement is not used, it is not necessary to increase the information amount of the setting signal.
- correction value (alpha), (beta) and a threshold value may be notified by the alerting
- FIG. 11 is a block diagram showing a configuration of UE 100 of the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 11, in the UE 100 of the present embodiment, the configuration of the first embodiment is common to the broadcast signal receiving unit 115 for receiving the broadcast signal transmitted from each HeNB 300 and the macro cell. A common offset storage unit 116 for storing the offset value is added.
- FIG. 12 is a block diagram showing a configuration of HeNB 300 according to the present embodiment. As illustrated in FIG. 12, in the HeNB 300 of the present embodiment, a correction value storage unit 312 for storing correction values set for each HeNB 300 is added to the configuration of the first embodiment.
- the correction value stored in the correction value storage unit 312 (correction value included in the broadcast signal by the HeNB 300) is set according to the position of the HeNB 300 in the macro cell. For example, (1) a small correction value ⁇ is stored when the HeNB 300 is arranged in the vicinity of the eNB 200, and (2) a large correction value ⁇ is stored when the HeNB 300 is arranged at the macro cell edge. Has been. Further, (3) when the HeNB 300 is arranged between (1) and (2), the correction value is not included in the broadcast signal, or the correction value 0 is included.
- FIG. 13 is a sequence diagram for explaining the operation of the communication system of the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 13, in this case, until the correction value set for each HeNB 300 is transmitted by the broadcast information transmitted from the HeNB 300, the common offset value is corrected (S13). The offset value is used to offset the reception quality of the HeNB 300, and it is determined whether or not the reception quality of the HeNB 300 after the offset processing exceeds the reception quality of the eNB 200 (S14).
- FIG. 13 illustrates the case where the offset value is corrected with the correction value set for each HeNB 300 after correcting the common offset value. However, the correction value set for each HeNB 300 is transmitted in advance. If so, the offset value may be corrected with the correction value set for each HeNB 300 without correcting the common offset value.
- amendment of an offset value is performed in UE100 using the correction value set for every HeNB300.
- the HeNB 300 normally has information regarding the position where it is placed in the macro cell (whether it is placed near the eNB 200 or the cell edge). Therefore, an appropriate correction value can be set for each HeNB 300 in consideration of its own position in the macro cell. Therefore, handover control can be performed using an appropriate correction value that considers uplink interference from the UE 100 to the base station. Further, since the UE 100 does not need to select an offset correction value based on the reception quality of the macro cell, the processing load on the UE 100 is reduced.
- this Embodiment it is comprised so that the length of time which raises the maximum transmission power of HeNB300 based on the reception quality of HeNB300 which UE100 measured can be controlled, This point is the time which raises the maximum transmission power of HeNB300. This is different from the first embodiment in which the length is controlled by a timer.
- FIG. 14 is a block diagram showing a configuration of UE 100 of the present embodiment.
- the handover execution command receiving unit 109 has a function of receiving the threshold Th transmitted from the HeNB 300 (the threshold Th transmitted from the eNB 200 together with the handover execution command). Therefore, the handover execution command receiving unit 109 corresponds to the threshold receiving unit of the present invention.
- the MR generation / transmission unit 107 is configured to create a measurement report including the determination result and transmit the measurement report to the HeNB 300.
- FIG. 15 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of the eNB 200 according to the present embodiment.

- the HeNB 300 determines that the UE 100 can be handed over (S23)
- the HeNB 300 transmits a threshold Th to the eNB 200 together with a handover response signal (handover response) (S24).
- the eNB 200 that has received the handover response and the threshold value Th transmits the threshold value Th together with the handover execution command signal (handover command) to the UE 100 (S25).
- the UE 100 measures the reception quality of the connected HeNB 300 (S33), and determines whether or not the reception quality of the HeNB 300 exceeds the threshold Th. (S34). Information necessary for reception quality measurement is included in a handover command and a handover response. When it is determined that the reception quality of the HeNB 300 exceeds the threshold Th, the UE 100 transmits a measurement report including the result to the HeNB 300 (S35). Receiving this measurement report, the HeNB 300 restores the maximum transmission power (S36).
- the handover is performed even when the reception quality from the CSG cell is low to some extent (such as when the UE 100 is located some distance away from the HeNB 300).
- the transmission power of the HeNB 300 is controlled to be large, it is possible to obtain sufficient reception quality from the HeNB 300 after the UE 100 has performed a handover to the HeNB 300.
- the transmission of the HeNB 300 is performed. Control is made to restore power. For example, when the UE 100 approaches the HeNB 300 after the handover, and as a result, the CSG cell reception quality has increased to some extent, the transmission power of the HeNB 300 is decreased. In this way, it is possible to prevent the transmission power of the HeNB 300 from being unnecessarily increased.
- the offset value is corrected in consideration of the interference that the downlink signal (DL signal) transmitted to UE 100 gives to other cells. This is different from the first embodiment in which the offset value is corrected in consideration of interference caused by a line signal (UL signal).
- the offset value correction unit 105 of the UE 100 is configured to correct the correction values ⁇ and ⁇ in consideration of DL interference with other CSG cells having the same frequency. For example, when the difference in reception quality between the CSG cell with the best reception quality (best CSG cell) and the CSG cell with the second best reception quality is smaller than the threshold Tc, the distance between the CSG cells is close, so the offset It is considered that DL interference to other CSG cells by increasing the value is large. Therefore, in this case, the offset correction value ⁇ is configured to be small.

- the UE 100 determines whether or not the reception quality from the eNB 200 is smaller than the threshold value T1 (S40).
- the correction value ⁇ is selected as a correction process target (S41).
- Tc threshold value
- correction for reducing the correction value ⁇ is performed (S43).

- correction for reducing the correction value ⁇ is performed (S47).
- the correction values ⁇ and ⁇ are corrected based on the reception quality from the plurality of HeNBs 300 around the UE 100. For example, when there are two HeNBs 300 around the UE 100 and the two HeNBs 300 are located close to each other, there is a possibility that downlink interference from the two HeNBs 300 to the UE 100 may occur. In such a case, the correction values ⁇ and ⁇ are corrected based on the reception quality from the two HeNBs 300.

- the base station when a CSG cell having a service band of a frequency different from that of the macro cell is detected by the inter-frequency measurement, when the service band of the CSG cell is included in the service band of the macro cell, the base station The handover control is performed using an appropriate threshold value considering the uplink interference to the network. Therefore, it is possible to suppress uplink interference from the UE 100 to the base station.
- FIGS. 29 and 30 A communication system according to the ninth embodiment of this invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 29 and 30.
- FIG. Here, the present embodiment will be described with a focus on differences from the first embodiment. Unless otherwise mentioned here, the configuration and operation of the ninth embodiment are the same as those of the first embodiment.
- the transmission power of UE 100 (uplink transmission power) is controlled to be constant, and this point is controlled to increase the transmission power of UE 100 in the first embodiment.
- the transmission power of HeNB 300 (downlink transmission power) is controlled to be constant, and this point is also controlled to increase the transmission power of HeNB 300. It is different from the form.
- the transmission power of the UE 100 and the HeNB 300 is controlled for the purpose of prompting handover at the cell edge, whereas in the present embodiment, the handover near the eNB 200 is prompted. It is also different in that it aims to.
- the offset value correction unit 105 of the present embodiment performs an offset value correction process so that the offset value increases in the vicinity of the eNB 200.
- the offset value is corrected by performing an offset process using the offset value after the correction, and after handing over to the CSG cell, the UE 100 uses an important control signal (for example, physical dedicated) in the downlink signal of the HeNB 300.
- offset value correction processing according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.
- the CSG cell (CSG cell A) in the vicinity of eNB 200 has a large interference from the macro cell and a cell radius.
- the CSG cell (CSG cell B) near the cell edge of the macro cell has small interference from the macro cell and a large cell radius.
- the offset value correction unit 105 of the UE 100 sets the offset value so that the offset value increases when the UE 100 is located in the vicinity of the eNB 200 in order to eliminate the inequality of the service area due to the position of the CSG cell. It is conceivable that value correction processing is performed.
- the cell radius is decreased in the vicinity of the eNB 200.
- the range in which handover can be performed can be expanded. For example, as shown in FIG. 30, the range that can be handed over to CSG cell A (CSG cell with a small cell radius) in the vicinity of eNB 200 to the same extent as CSG cell B (CSG cell with a large cell radius) near the cell edge. Can be enlarged. Further, in this case, since the transmission power of the UE 100 is constant, uplink interference from the UE 100 to the base station can be suppressed.
- the transmission power of the HeNB 300 is controlled to be constant, the interference to other cells due to the increase in the transmission power of the HeNB 300 can be reduced compared to the case where the control of increasing the transmission power of the HeNB 300 is performed. it can. Moreover, since the control which changes the transmission power of HeNB300 becomes unnecessary, the process in HeNB300 becomes easy.
- the communication system according to the present invention has an effect that it is possible to perform handover control using an appropriate offset value in consideration of uplink interference from the terminal device to the base station, This is useful for controlling handover from a macro cell to a CSG cell.
