Description

一种基站软件管理方法和系统  Base station software management method and system
技术领域 Technical field
本发明涉及一种无线通讯系统中基站软件的管理方法和系统。  The invention relates to a method and a system for managing base station software in a wireless communication system.
背景技术 Background technique
在移动通讯的网络管理中,网络管理系统( NMS )与网元管理系统( EMS ) 之间的接口称为北向接口 ( Itf-N ) , 网元管理系统( EMS )与基站( eNodeB ) 之间的接口称为南向接口( Itf-S )。 EMS主要完成 ITU TMN (电信管理网络 ) 中的网元管理层(EML )功能, 即完成一个或多个移动通信设备的管理功能, 通常不同设备供应商之间的 EMS无法通用。 NMS主要完成 ITU TMN中的网 络管理层(NML )功能, 负责一个被管网络内所有网元的管理。 对于被管网 络(称为子网)内存在多个设备供应商的情况, 可以通过各自的 EMS管理达 到管理整个子网的目的。  In the network management of mobile communication, the interface between the network management system (NMS) and the network element management system (EMS) is called the northbound interface (Itf-N), between the network element management system (EMS) and the base station (eNodeB). The interface is called the southbound interface (Itf-S). The EMS mainly completes the network element management layer (EML) function in the ITU TMN (Telecom Management Network), that is, completes the management function of one or more mobile communication devices, and usually the EMS between different device suppliers cannot be universal. The NMS mainly performs the Network Management Layer (NML) function in the ITU TMN and is responsible for the management of all network elements in a managed network. In the case of multiple device vendors in a managed network (called a subnet), the entire subnet can be managed through its own EMS management.
在 LTE技术中, 基站(eNodeB ) 的数量很多, 而且在一个 LTE网络中 会有不同厂商的基站同时存在的情况。 在这种情况下, 对所有基站的软件进 行管理, 是一件复杂、 繁瑣的工作。 所以, 在 LTE技术中, 一方面提出了自 动软件管理的功能, 即基站可以自动进行软件的下载、 安装、 激活等操作, 无需操作管理人员通过管理系统下发相关的命令来启动软件管理的操作, 这 样极大地提高了软件管理的效率。 另一方面, 为了便于灵活管理, 运营商一 般还要求保留其对软件管理的控制权, 要求可以通过管理系统对软件管理进 行控制, 即操作管理人员可以通过管理系统下发软件管理命令, 来进行软件 管理的操作。 目前釆用的方法是分别下发软件下载、 软件安装、 软件激活等 命令给相应的基站, 启动相关操作。 这种方法虽然给操作管理人员提供了灵 活的控制手段, 但效率很低, 因为必须给软件管理的每一步单独下发命令。  In the LTE technology, the number of base stations (eNodeBs) is large, and in an LTE network, there are cases where base stations of different vendors coexist. In this case, managing the software of all base stations is a complicated and cumbersome task. Therefore, in the LTE technology, on the one hand, the function of automatic software management is proposed, that is, the base station can automatically perform operations such as downloading, installing, and activating the software, and the operation management personnel are required to issue related commands to start the software management operation. This greatly improves the efficiency of software management. On the other hand, in order to facilitate flexible management, operators generally also need to retain their control over software management. It is required to control the software management through the management system, that is, the operation management personnel can issue software management commands through the management system. Software management operations. At present, the methods used are to issue software downloads, software installations, software activations, etc. to the corresponding base stations to initiate related operations. While this approach provides operational managers with flexible controls, it is inefficient because separate commands must be issued for each step of software management.

本发明的较佳实施方式 Preferred embodiment of the invention
在实际的软件管理过程中, 考虑到在下发第一步的命令后, 如果第一步 执行成功的话, 后续的步骤是可以连续执行。 所以, 本发明提供一种方法, 能够让操作管理人员在下发一个软件管理命令的时候, 选择是否在下发的软 件管理命令执行成功时, 自动启动并执行后续的软件管理命令, 这样既可以 给操作管理人员提供了灵活的控制手段, 又可以在需要时提高软件管理的执 行效率, 使得灵活和高效得以更好地体现。  In the actual software management process, after the first step of the command is issued, if the first step is successful, the subsequent steps can be executed continuously.

Managers provide flexible controls and improve the efficiency of software management when needed, making flexibility and efficiency better reflected.
基站软件管理方法包括: Base station software management methods include:
步骤 1 , 操作管理人员通过管理系统下发基站软件管理命令, 人工启动 基站软件管理操作; 命令中包括当前操作命令以及后续操作指示信息, 当前 操作命令是基站当前需要执行的命令, 后续操作指示信息用以指示当前操作 命令执行成功后的后续动作方式。  Step 1: The operation manager sends the base station software management command to the base station to manually start the base station software management operation. The command includes the current operation command and the subsequent operation indication information, where the current operation command is a command that the base station needs to execute, and the subsequent operation indication information It is used to indicate the subsequent action mode after the current operation command is successfully executed.
当前操作命令包括下列命令中的一种或几种: 软件下载、 软件安装、 软 件激活、 软件验证、 软件检查。 回滚操作也可以单独携带。  The current operation commands include one or more of the following commands: software download, software installation, software activation, software verification, software inspection. The rollback operation can also be carried separately.
后续操作指示信息的取值可以但不限于以下信息之一: 当前命令执行完 后终止, 无后续操作; 当前命令执行成功后执行后续一步的操作; 当前命令 执行成功后执行后续所有操作。  The value of the subsequent operation indication information may be, but is not limited to, one of the following information: The current command is terminated after the execution of the current command, and there is no subsequent operation; after the current command is successfully executed, the subsequent step is performed; after the current command is successfully executed, all subsequent operations are performed.
管理系统可以和基站约定需要进行的操作及顺序, 则当前操作命令中就 可以只携带一个命令, 后续操作指示信息如果指示需要执行后续的操作, 则 可按照约定的操作命令和顺序执行。或者当前操作命令中也可携带多个命令, 基站按照携带的命令执行, 在成功执行完第一个操作命令后, 继续执行下一 操作命令。 例如当前操作命令中携带软件下载和软件激活, 基站则先执行软 件下载, 执行成功后再执行软件激活。 通过在操作命令中携带命令并指示操 作顺序的方式相比事先约定的方式更为灵活。 The management system can agree with the base station to perform operations and sequences, and the current operation command can carry only one command, and if the subsequent operation indication information indicates that the subsequent operations need to be performed, It can be executed in accordance with the agreed operation commands and order. Or the current operation command may also carry multiple commands, and the base station executes according to the carried command, and continues to execute the next operation command after successfully executing the first operation command. For example, the current operation command carries software download and software activation, and the base station performs software download first, and then performs software activation after successful execution. It is more flexible by carrying commands in the operation commands and indicating the order of operations than in the prior agreed manner.
在其他实施例中, 也可不携带当前操作命令, 而在后续操作指示信息中 携带操作命令列表, 此时, 向基站下发基站软件管理命令后, 基站便根据后 续操作指示信息中携带的操作命令列表执行相应操作命令。 所述操作命令列 表中可携带以下命令中的一种或几种: 软件下载、 软件安装、 软件激活、 软 件验证、 软件检查。 回滚操作也可以单独携带。  In other embodiments, the current operation command may not be carried, and the operation command list is carried in the subsequent operation indication information. After the base station software management command is sent to the base station, the base station performs the operation command carried in the subsequent operation indication information. The list executes the corresponding operation commands. The operation command list may carry one or more of the following commands: software download, software installation, software activation, software verification, software inspection. The rollback operation can also be carried separately.
进一步地, 基站软件管理命令中还可包括失败处理指示信息, 用于指示 操作命令执行失败后的后续处理。 失败处理指示信息的取值可以但不限于下 列信息之一: 若操作失败, 终止当前操作; 若操作失败, 回滚当前操作; 若 操作失败, 回滚所有已完成的操作。  Further, the base station software management command may further include a failure processing indication information, which is used to indicate subsequent processing after the operation command fails to be executed. The value of the failure processing indication information may be, but is not limited to, one of the following information: If the operation fails, the current operation is terminated; if the operation fails, the current operation is rolled back; if the operation fails, all completed operations are rolled back.
这里的回滚操作具体如何执行, 不在本发明的范围, 这里不详细描述。 步骤 2 , 如果管理人员所使用下发基站软件管理命令的管理系统是网络 管理系统, 则先将命令通过北向接口下发到网元管理系统, 转步骤 3; 若下 发基站软件管理命令的管理系统是网元管理系统,则将命令直接下发到基站, 转步骤 4;  The specific implementation of the rollback operation herein is not within the scope of the present invention and will not be described in detail herein. Step 2: If the management system used by the management personnel to send the base station software management command is the network management system, the command is sent to the network element management system through the northbound interface, and the process proceeds to step 3. If the base station software management command is sent, the management is performed. The system is the network element management system, the command is directly sent to the base station, and the process proceeds to step 4;
步骤 3 , 网元管理系统收到命令后, 解析该命令, 并将解析后的命令下 发到相应的基站;  Step 3: After receiving the command, the network element management system parses the command, and sends the parsed command to the corresponding base station.
步骤 4, 基站收到命令后, 执行该命令。  Step 4: After receiving the command, the base station executes the command.
步骤 5 , 基站执行命令完成后, 根据命令中包含的后续操作指示信息, 决定后续的操作, 即:  Step 5: After the base station executes the command, the subsequent operations are determined according to the subsequent operation indication information included in the command, that is,
若后续操作指示信息为 "当前命令执行完后终止, 无后续操作" : 则当 前命令执行完成后, 不作后续动作;  If the subsequent operation indication message is "Terminating after the current command is executed, there is no subsequent operation": After the current command is executed, no follow-up action is performed;
若后续操作指示信息为 "当前命令执行成功后执行后续一步的操作" : 则当前命令执行完成后, 再执行后续一步的操作命令; 若后续操作指示信息为 "当前命令执行成功后执行后续所有操作: 则当 前命令执行完成后, 再执行后续所有的操作命令, 直到基站软件进入可用状 态; If the subsequent operation instruction information is "the next step operation is performed after the current command is successfully executed": after the current command is executed, the subsequent step operation command is executed; If the subsequent operation instruction information is "all subsequent operations are performed after the current command is successfully executed: after the current command is executed, all subsequent operation commands are executed until the base station software enters the available state;
如果基站执行命令失败, 则根据命令中包含的失败处理指示信息进行错 误处理。 在基站执行命令成功或失败后, 上报相关通知消息。  If the base station fails to execute the command, the error processing is performed according to the failure processing indication information included in the command. After the base station executes the command successfully or fails, the related notification message is reported.
根据上述方法, 可以构建一种灵活的基站软件管理系统, 包括基站软件 管理模块、基站软件管理命令解析模块和基站软件管理命令执行模块, 其中: 基站软件管理模块: 提供人机接口, 供管理人员下发基站软件管理命令, 在命令中携带当前对基站软件的操作命令, 以及后续操作指示信息, 所述后 续操作指示信息用于指示所述操作命令执行完成后的操作, 或者在命令中只 携带具体动作参数; According to the above method, a flexible base station software management system can be constructed, including a base station software management module, a base station software management command parsing module, and a base station software management command execution module, wherein: a base station software management module: providing a human-machine interface for management personnel And sending the base station software management command, where the command carries the current operation command to the base station software, and the subsequent operation indication information, where the subsequent operation indication information is used to indicate the operation after the operation command is completed, or only carried in the command Specific action parameters;
基站软件管理命令解析模块: 用于解析基站软件管理命令, 将得到的操 作命令或者与操作命令有关的指示信息发送给基站软件管理命令执行模块, 该基站软件管理命令解析模块还用于根据需要进行转换接口格式;  The base station software management command parsing module is configured to parse the base station software management command, and send the obtained operation command or the instruction information related to the operation command to the base station software management command execution module, where the base station software management command parsing module is further configured to perform Conversion interface format;
基站软件管理命令执行模块: 用于在接收到基站软件管理命令后, 执行 其中的操作命令, 并根据所述基站软件管理命令中的后续操作指示信息进行 后续动作的处理或进行异常处理。  The base station software management command execution module is configured to: after receiving the base station software management command, execute the operation command, and perform subsequent action processing or abnormal processing according to the subsequent operation instruction information in the base station software management command.
基站软件管理模块可以置于网络管理系统, 也可以置于网元管理系统。 当基站软件管理模块位于网络管理系统时, 基站软件管理命令解析模块 位于网元管理系统。 基站软件管理模块下发的基站软件管理命令通过网络管 理系统与网元管理系统之间的北向接口下发到网元管理系统中的基站软件管 理命令解析模块, 所述基站软件管理命令解析模块还用于进行南北接口之间 的格式转换。  The base station software management module can be placed in the network management system or in the network element management system. When the base station software management module is located in the network management system, the base station software management command parsing module is located in the network element management system. The base station software management command sent by the base station software management module is sent to the base station software management command parsing module in the network element management system by the northbound interface between the network management system and the network element management system, and the base station software management command parsing module is further Used to perform format conversion between north and south interfaces.
当基站软件管理模块位于网元管理系统时, 基站软件管理命令解析模块 位于基站, 且与基站软件管理命令执行模块相连接。 基站软件管理模块下发 的基站软件管理命令通过网元管理系统与基站之间的南向接口下发到基站中 的基站软件管理命令解析模块。 基站软件管理的步骤一般包括软件下载、 软件安装、 软件激活, 还可以 进一步包括但不限于验证、 检查、 回滚等操作。 因为软件下载、 软件安装、 软件激活是基站软件管理最常用的步骤, 本发明在描述中主要以软件下载、 软件安装、 软件激活等步骤为例, 但实际应用中可以加入验证、 检查等步骤, 同时具体各步骤之间的顺序也可以有所调整。 When the base station software management module is located in the network element management system, the base station software management command parsing module is located at the base station, and is connected to the base station software management command execution module. The base station software management command sent by the base station software management module is sent to the base station software management command parsing module in the base station through the southbound interface between the network element management system and the base station. The steps of the base station software management generally include software downloading, software installation, software activation, and may further include, but are not limited to, operations such as verification, checking, and rollback. Because the software download, the software installation, and the software activation are the most common steps in the management of the base station software, the description of the invention mainly takes the steps of software downloading, software installation, software activation, etc., but the actual application can be added with verification, inspection and other steps.
