Description

Method, device and system for measuring control

The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method, device, and system for measurement control. Background technique

With the development of communication technology, in the third generation mobile communication system (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), code division multiple access system (CDMA Division), time division synchronous code division multiple access system (Time Divisional-Synchronous CDMA (TD-SCDMA), Long Term Evolution (LTE), and World Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) have emerged as home indoor coverage base stations, enterprise-class internal coverage base stations, and Other private networks. These private networks may be home NodeBs, Home Cells, Access Points, Private Cells, and private networks of certain frequency layers. At present, the private network can be divided into several access modes. Among them, in the limited access mode, the concept of a Closed Subscriber Group (CSG) network has been introduced. A CSG network may contain one or more cells, each of which may be referred to as a CSG cell. In a CSG network, if a user subscribes to a CSG user group or is added to a CSG user group by a CSG user group, the user is allowed to normally camp in the CSG cell in the CSG network and apply for service; The subscribed terminal and the terminal that is not added to the CSG network by the CSG owner cannot camp in the CSG cell in the CSG network, that is, the terminal cannot initiate a call and receive a paging message in the CSG cell.

When the terminal is close to the private network cell, the terminal needs to start measurement, and the macro cell determines whether to switch to the target private network cell according to the measurement report reported by the terminal. If the signal quality/intensity of the target private network cell satisfies the handover criterion, the macro cell commands the terminal to handover to the target private network cell. In the handover procedure between the existing macro cells, the macro cell instructs the terminal to measure all adjacent private cells of the macro cell in the measurement control message, increases the length of the measurement control message, wastes resources of the air interface, and makes the terminal unnecessary. The measurement increases the burden on the terminal; Moreover, the handover process between the existing macro cells does not take into account that the private network only allows users with corresponding rights to use, resulting in many disallowed access. - - The terminal of the private network cell performs an invalid handover attempt, increases the network transmission and the burden on each node, and is also likely to cause a handover failure.

Compared with the handover procedure between the existing macro cells, the number of CSG cells is too large, and the neighboring CSG cell list is not sent in the macro cell, and the terminal stores the fingerprint information of the CSG cell (Finger Print Information). And the CSG cell is started to be measured according to the fingerprint information. Since the coverage of the CSG cell is small and the number is large, the CSG cell in a macro cell may use the same physical layer identity (Physical Cell Identity, PCI), so that the macro cell can be accurately identified. The CSG cell that allows the terminal to access, the terminal can read the system information of the neighboring CSG cell to obtain the CSG identifier and the object match. If the match is successful, the CSG allows the terminal to access. After the terminal reports to the macro cell, the macro cell can be based on the macro cell. The CSG identity and the physical cell identity find the corresponding CSG cell. However, this method is complicated because the CSG cell of the inter-frequency/different system needs to read the system information of the CSG cell, which complicates the configuration of the measurement gap, increases the network complexity, and increases the handover delay. Summary of the invention

The embodiment of the present invention provides a method, a device, and a system for measuring control, to solve the problem that the measurement configuration complexity of the terminal is increased due to the system information of the private network cell being read, and the measurement configuration complexity is increased.

An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for measurement control, including: a first macro cell receives a first message including CSG cell fingerprint information that allows terminal access; and a first macro cell receives a CSG cell that includes a terminal close to allowing access by the terminal According to the second message, the first macro cell obtains the terminal identity of the terminal; according to the indication information, the terminal identity, and the CSG cell fingerprint information, the first macro cell instructs the terminal to measure the CSG cell.

The terminal identity of the terminal may be one of an international mobile subscriber identity, a temporary mobile station identity, an international mobile station identity, and a telephone number, a terminal identity of a terminal, and an allowed access corresponding to the identity of the terminal. The information pair of the CSG network may be referred to as a CSG fingerprint information item. A CSG network may have one or more terminals that allow access to the CSG network. For each of the terminals that are allowed to access the CSG network, there is a CSG fingerprint information item indicating that the terminal can access the CSG network. Therefore, in a CSG network, one or more CSG fingerprint information items may exist, and each CSG fingerprint information item corresponds to a terminal that allows access to the CSG network, and the information of the one or more terminal fingerprint information items It can be called CSG fingerprint information.

According to the method in the embodiment of the present invention, the first macro cell obtains the CSG fingerprint information according to the first message, and obtains the terminal identity identifier of the terminal according to the second message, and determines that the CSG fingerprint information includes the terminal identity identifier, and the first macro cell determines The CSG cell that the terminal is allowed to access in the first macro cell, so that the first macro cell can instruct the terminal to perform measurement on the CSG cell that allows the terminal to access. Therefore, the terminal can reduce the number of measured CSG cells, avoiding measurement of all CSG cells in the first macro cell to a certain extent, reducing the length of measurement control messages, and reducing waste of air interface resources. Further, since the terminal does not need to measure the CSG cell that is not allowed to access, the measurement load of the terminal can be reduced. Further, in the method of the embodiment of the present invention, the first macro cell indicates that the terminal only needs to be matched according to the terminal identity identifier of the terminal and the obtained CSG fingerprint information. - - The CSG cell accessed by the terminal is measured. Correspondingly, the terminal can avoid reading the system information of the CSG cell during the measurement, reduces the handover delay, and simplifies the measurement gap configuration, thereby reducing the system complexity.

The embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below with reference to the specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings. In the following, the following embodiments of the present invention are specifically described by using the macro cell as a scenario in the LTE system.

As shown in FIG. 1 , an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for measurement control, where the method includes: Step 1100: A first macro cell receives a first message that includes CSG cell fingerprint information that allows a terminal to access.

The first message received by the first macro cell in this implementation may be a handover request message or a other dedicated message. Which message is used for the first message depends on the specific sending method. The following describes several sending methods:

Method 1: When the terminal switches from the CSG cell to the first macro cell, the CSG cell sends a first message to the first macro cell, and the first message may be a handover request message containing CSG fingerprint information.

The information related to the terminal that is allowed to access the CSG in each CSG fingerprint information item includes: a physical cell identity (PCI), a CSG identifier. The information that allows access to the CSG may further include: location information of the CSG. The location information of the CSG may include Global Positioning System (GPS) information, and Observed Time Difference Of Arrival (OTDOA) location information may be observed. The information for allowing access to the CSG may further include: a Radio Access Technology (RAT) type, a Public Land Mobile Network ID (PLMN ID), a center frequency, and an evolved global cell identifier ( Evolved Cell Global Identity, ECGI), offset value Qoffset, hysteresis Qhyst, Discontinuous Reception (DRX) information, priority information, minimum uplink/downlink signal strength/mass threshold, type of measurement report. At the same time, the CSG cell can send the identity of the terminal to the first macro cell.

In the following embodiments of the present invention, the information about the access to the CSG related to the terminal is not described in the following embodiments of the present invention. The content that can be included in the information is repeatedly described, and the specific content thereof can be referred to the specific introduction in this embodiment. - Method 2: If the CSG fingerprint information is stored in the CSG cell, when the terminal switches from the CSG cell to the first macro cell, the CSG cell sends the CSG saved by the CSG cell to the first macro cell by using the first message including the CSG fingerprint information. Fingerprint information. The first message containing the CSG fingerprint information is a dedicated message containing CSG fingerprint information, and the dedicated message can be sent through an X2 interface between the CSG cell and the macro cell.

Method 3: When the CSG cell is powered on, the CSG cell is managed by the home base station registration message to the network node, such as the home base station gateway (Home Gateway), the core network node mobility management entity (Mobility Management Entity, MME), or the network management node home base station. The system (Home NodeB Management System) reports the CSG fingerprint information, that is, the first message including the CSG fingerprint information at this time is the home base station registration message including the CSG fingerprint information. The first message sent by the CSG cell to include the CSG fingerprint information may be sent when the CSG cell is powered on, or may be set to send a CSG fingerprint information to the macro cell periodically through the first message. The neighboring or the same coverage first macro cell obtains the CSG fingerprint information of the coverage or the neighboring CSG cell from the corresponding network node, and the manner of obtaining may be through the S1 interface or the RNC and the SGSN between the existing eNB and the MME. And the message of the Iu interface between the MSC, such as the S1 setup process message, the base station configuration update message, etc., can also be implemented by designing a dedicated CSG fingerprint information request message.

Method 4: When the terminal switches from the first macro cell A that stores the fingerprint information of the CSG terminal to the second macro cell B, the first macro cell A sends the CSG fingerprint information to the second macro cell B through the handover request message. The handover request message may be sent through the X2 interface between the first macro cell A and the second macro cell B, or may be sent through the S1 interface between the macro base station and the core network. That is, at this time, the first message containing the CSG fingerprint information is a handover request message containing the CSG terminal fingerprint information.

Optionally, after the first macro cell receives the first message that includes the CSG fingerprint information, the first macro cell may set a timer for each terminal, where the timer has a variable length, for example, 7 days, when the timer expires. The terminal does not return the macro cell, and the first macro cell considers that the CSG fingerprint information item corresponding to the terminal in the CSG fingerprint information is invalid, and deletes the CSG fingerprint information item from the CSG fingerprint information.

Step 1200: The first macro cell receives a second message including indication information that the terminal is close to the CSG cell that allows the terminal to access.

When the terminal enters the CSG cell that is allowed to access for the first time, it can select to enter by manually selecting. At this time, the terminal can measure the surrounding wireless environment and save the information of the CSG. - The information may include the physical cell identity of the CSG cell, the CSG identity, the evolved global cell identity, the ECGI, and the location information of the CSG cell. When the terminal approaches the CSG cell again, the terminal determines the proximity permission according to the location information in the saved CSG information. The CSG cell that is accessed, the terminal sends a second message to the first macro cell according to the saved CSG information, where the second message includes indication information that the terminal is close to the CSG cell that is allowed to access the terminal in the first macro cell, where the terminal The indication information can be one bit. The second message may be a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection setup message, a handover complete message, or a Non Access Stratum (NAS). The terminal may report the current location information of the terminal in the second message.

Step 1300: According to the second message, the first macro cell obtains the terminal identity of the terminal. When the second message is a RRC connection setup message or a handover complete message, the Temporary Mobile Station Identity (TMSI) may be obtained by using the second message, and the international mobile subscriber identity of the terminal is obtained by using the obtained temporary mobile station identifier. (International Mobile Subscriber Identity, IMSI), that is, the terminal identity of the terminal.

When the second message is non-access stratum signaling, the second message is non-access stratum signaling including the terminal identity of the terminal, and the terminal identity may be an international mobile subscriber identity. When the terminal reselects to the first macro cell, the non-access stratum signaling is a Tracking Area Update Request message; when the terminal is powered on in the first macro cell, the non-access stratum signaling is attached. Request (Attach Request) message; When the terminal initiates a service request in the first macro cell, the non-access stratum signaling is a service request (Service Request) message.

Step 1400: The first macro cell instructs the terminal to measure the CSG cell according to the indication information, the terminal identity, and the CSG cell fingerprint information.

The indication information in the second message indicates that the first macro cell terminal is close to the CSG cell that allows the terminal to access, and the first macro cell compares according to the determined terminal identity identifier and the CSG fingerprint information, if the first message is saved. If the CSG fingerprint information does not include the terminal identity of the terminal, the CSG cell in the first macro cell coverage is not allowed to be accessed by the terminal, and the CSG fingerprint information in the saved first message includes the terminal. The terminal identity identifier indicates that the CSG cell is allowed to be accessed by the terminal in the coverage of the first macro cell, and the first macro cell searches for the physical cell identifier PCI of the corresponding CSG cell in the saved CSG fingerprint information, and the first macro cell The terminal sends a measurement control message, where the neighbor cell list in the measurement control message includes a corresponding CSG cell. - - The physical cell identifies the PCI. Further, if the first message includes information that allows access to the CSG, and the terminal in the second message reports the current location information, such as global positioning system information, the PCI in the measurement control message sent by the first macro cell may not be repeated. When the terminal reports the measurement report, the first macro cell can obtain the CSG identifier and the evolved global cell identifier.

It should be noted that the embodiment of the present invention uses the terminal identity identifier as an example of the international mobile subscriber identity. However, the description of the international mobile subscriber identity is not limited to the scope of the present invention. Other terminal identities that may be used to identify the identity of the terminal, such as the temporary mobile station identity, the international mobile station device identity, and the telephone number of the terminal, are all within the scope of the present invention.

According to the method in the embodiment of the present invention, the first macro cell obtains the CSG fingerprint information according to the first message, and obtains the terminal identity identifier according to the second message, and according to the matching situation of the CSG fingerprint information and the terminal identity identifier, the first macro cell determines to allow the The CSG cell accessed by the terminal, so that the first macro cell can instruct the terminal to perform measurement on the CSG cell that allows the terminal to access. Therefore, the terminal can reduce the number of measured CSG cells, avoiding to measure all CSG cells in the first macro cell to a certain extent, reducing the length of measurement control messages, and reducing waste of air interface resources. Further, since the terminal can avoid the measurement of the CSG cell that is not allowed to access to some extent, the measurement load of the terminal can be reduced to some extent. Further, in the method of the embodiment of the present invention, the first macro cell indicates that the terminal only needs to measure the CSG cell that the terminal is allowed to access according to the terminal identity identifier and the obtained CSG fingerprint information, and correspondingly, the terminal is in measurement. It can avoid reading the system information of the CSG cell, reduce the switching delay, and simplify the measurement gap configuration, thereby reducing the system complexity.

As shown in FIG. 2, the embodiment of the present invention provides another method for measurement control, where the method includes: Step 2100: The first macro cell receives a first message including CSG cell fingerprint information that allows the terminal to access.

Step 2200: The first macro cell receives a second message that includes indication information that the terminal is close to the CSG cell that allows the terminal to access. The specific implementations in steps 1100 and 1200 are similar, and the repeated portions of the specific implementations of steps 2100 and 2200 are not described again in this embodiment. - Step 2300: According to the first message, the first macro cell obtains a CSG identity list of the CSG network that the terminal is allowed to access, or obtains a CSG identity list of the CSG network that the terminal allows access according to the second macro cell according to the second message.

Although the specific implementations of the first message and the second message have been described in the above steps 2100 and 2200 are similar to the specific implementations in the steps 1100 and 1200 of the foregoing embodiment, it should be noted that the first step in the step 2100 of this embodiment A message is different from the first message in step 1100 in the foregoing embodiment, in which the CSG identifier list of the CSG network that the terminal is allowed to access may be further included in the first message, or if the first message in step 2100 is not When the CSG identifier list of the CSG network that the terminal is allowed to access is included, the second message in the step 2200 of the embodiment is different from the second message in the step 1100 in the foregoing embodiment, and the second message may further include A list of CSG identifiers of the CSG network that the terminal is allowed to access.

Step 2400: The first macro cell instructs the terminal to measure the CSG cell according to the indication information, the CSG cell fingerprint information, and the CSG identifier list.

The first macro cell is compared according to the CSG fingerprint information and the CSG identifier list of the CSG network that the terminal is allowed to access, if the CSG identifier list of the CSG network that the terminal is allowed to access does not include the CSG fingerprint information. The CSG identity indicates that there is no CSG cell in the coverage of the first macro cell that allows the terminal to access. If the CSG identity list of the CSG network allowed to be accessed by the terminal includes the CSG identifier included in the CSG fingerprint information, And indicating that the first macro cell has a CSG cell that allows the terminal to access, and the first macro cell searches for the physical cell identifier PCI of the corresponding CSG cell in the saved CSG fingerprint information, and the first macro cell sends the measurement to the terminal. The control message includes a physical cell identifier PCI of the corresponding CSG cell in the neighbor cell list in the measurement control message. Further, if the first message includes information that allows access to the CSG, and the terminal in the second message reports the current location information, such as global positioning system information, the PCI in the measurement control message sent by the first macro cell may not be repeated. When the terminal reports the measurement report, the first macro cell can obtain the CSG identifier and the evolved global cell identifier.

According to the method in the embodiment of the present invention, the first macro cell obtains CSG fingerprint information according to the first message, and obtains a CSG identifier list of the CSG network that allows the terminal to access according to the first message or the second message, according to the CSG fingerprint information and the permission. Comparing the CSG identifier list of the CSG network accessed by the terminal, the first macro cell determines a CSG cell that allows the terminal to access, so that the first macro cell can - - Instruct the terminal to measure the CSG cell that the terminal is allowed to access. Therefore, the terminal can reduce the number of measured CSG cells, measure the neighboring cells in the first macro cell to a certain extent, reduce the length of the measurement control message, and reduce the waste of the air interface resources. Further, since the terminal can avoid the measurement of the CSG cell that is not allowed to access to some extent, the measurement load of the terminal can be reduced to some extent. Further, in the method of the embodiment of the present invention, the first macro cell indicates that the terminal performs the CSG cell that allows the terminal to access according to the comparison between the CSG identifier list of the CSG network that the terminal is allowed to access and the obtained CSG fingerprint information. Measurement, correspondingly, the terminal can avoid reading the system information of the CSG cell during the measurement, reduces the handover delay, and simplifies the measurement gap configuration, thereby reducing the system complexity.
