- the 4 th mobile communication technique includes a long-term evolution network (LTE) technique under standardization by 3GPP and an IEEE 802.16 technique under standardization by IEEE.
- LTE uses a term of E-UTRAN (Evolved-UTRAN).
- the 4 th mobile communication technique has introduced OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)/OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access).
- OFDM uses a plurality of orthogonal subcarriers.
- OFDM uses orthogonality between IFFT (Inverse Fast Fourier Transform0 and FFT (Fast Fourier Transform).
- IFFT Inverse Fast Fourier Transform0 and FFT (Fast Fourier Transform).
- a transmitter performs IFFT on data and then transmits the same.
- a receiver performs FFT on received signal to restore the original data.
- the transmitter uses IFFT in order to combine a plurality of subcarriers and the receiver uses corresponding FFT in order to split the multiple subcarriers.
- Femto cell refers to provision of a small-scale radio environment by installing a base station using small power in indoor spaces such as homes, offices, and the like.
- the femto cell is expected to improve an indoor service available area and increase capacity to thus enhance quality of service (QoS), and also expected to completely settle the next generation mobile communication system by providing data services.
- QoS quality of service
- FIGS. 1 and 2 Various structures as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 have been proposed in order to implement such a femto cell in the existing mobile communication network.
- FIG. 1 illustrates an example of a network structure based on femto cells according to the related art.
- M-BS macro base station
- f-BSs femto base stations
- the f-BSs are connected with a femto cell network controller (FNC) through the Internet so as to be under the control of the FNC, and provide services to users.
- FNC femto cell network controller
- a terminal measures signals of neighboring cells and delivers the measured signal values to its f-BS, and the f-BS recognizes and administers the presence of neighboring cells based on the received signal values. Also, the f-BSs exchange information through a direct link or an indirect link through the FNC.
- the f-BSs and the M-BS transmit and receive information through the FNC, an RNC (Radio Network Controller) or through an MME (Mobility Management Entity) that controls the f-BSs in a mobile communication network.
- FIG. 2 illustrates a handover process in the system illustrated in FIG. 1.
- the terminal 10 periodically measures signals of the neighbor BSs while communicating with the serving BS 21, and transmits the measurement results including a value of the strength of the measured signal to the serving BS 21.
- the serving BS 21 may be the foregoing macro BS or the femto BS.
- the serving BS 21 determines a target BS as a BS having a signal strength suitable for the terminal 10 to perform handover, among neighbor BSs, based on the measurement results, and then, in order to make the terminal 10 perform handover to the determined target BS, the serving BS 21 transmits a handover (HO) request message.
- the HO request message includes the information required for the handover, e.g., a cell ID (serving cell, target cell) and context of the terminal, the reason for performing handover, information of a movement path of the terminal (UE history information).
- the context of the terminal includes security, QoS, a user priority level, and the like.
- the target BS 22 Upon receiving the handover request message, the target BS 22 transmits a HO Request Confirm message to the serving BS 21, to inform that whether or not handover is allowed. Upon receiving the HO Request Confirm message, the serving BS 21 forwards data traffic of the terminal to the target BS 22.
- the serving BS 21 transmits a handover (HO) command message to the terminal 10 to command the terminal 10 to perform handover to the target BS 22.
- HO handover
- the terminal 10 Upon receiving the HO command message, the terminal 10 performs a handover (HO) execution process to access the target BS 22.
- the serving BS 21 and the target BS 22 may be macro BSs or femto BSs.
- the foregoing messages are transmitted or received among the femto BS, the MME, and the serving BS through the general Internet, and in this case, the Internet cannot guarantee no delay of the messages nor guarantee QoS such that the messages have a higher transmission priority level, causing handover to be delayed.
- delay may occur because the related messages are transmitted and received through the Internet.
- the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problem, and it is one object of the invention to quickly perform a handover operation or a new accessing operation by transmitting related messages without delay when a terminal performs handover or newly access a target femto base.
- the terminal in order for the terminal to perform handover, the terminal must transfer mobility related information to a target femto BS, and upon receiving the corresponding information, the target femto BS must transfer information, which may allow the terminal to perform handover, to the terminal through a serving BS to which the terminal is currently connected.
- an object of the present invention is to allow messages including such information to be rapidly transmitted and received, thus preventing delay in handover.
- the femto BS may maintain a femto cell operation in an inactive state, without communicating with a terminal for a certain time period by using a sleep mode.
- the femto BS may not transmit communication data with the terminal, system information including operation information of a femto cell or the like, and a reference signal allowing the terminal to detect the femto BS for a certain time period or may transmit them in the interval of a long time period.
- the terminal in the sleep mode, there is a problem in that it is difficult for the terminal to detect the femto BS.
- the terminal in order for the terminal to search the femto BS, the terminal must receive a reference signal from the femto Bs, but, the femto BS, operating in the sleep mode, does not transmit the reference signal or transmits the reference signal in the interval of a long time period, so the terminal is highly likely not to search the reference signal of the femto BS.
- the present invention solve the mentioned problems by allowing the terminal to quickly perform handover to or newly access the femto BS operating even in the sleep mode.
- the present invention provides an architecture including an interface between a femto BS and a network of a smart grid. Also, in the present invention, handover-related information is transmitted through the interface between the network of the smart grid and the femto base station, thus preventing delay of handover or delay in initial accessing.
- an entity within the network of the smart grid transmits the reference signal in place of the femto BS operating in the sleep mode, thus solving the problem caused as the femto BS does not transmit the reference signal because it operates in the sleep mode.
- the present invention provides a method for allowing a terminal to perform handover or initial accessing.
- the method for performing handover or initial accessing by a terminal may include: receiving a message including one or more of information regarding a smart meter and information regarding neighbor base stations (BSs) connected to the smart meter, the smart meter having a function for managing power; determining at least one of the neighbor BSs connected to the smart meter as a BS to be accessed; transmitting an access request message for accessing the determined BS to the smart meter; and accessing the determined BS if a response message is received from the smart meter.

- the method for controlling, by a smart meter, accessing of a mobile terminal includes: transmitting a message including one or more of information regarding the smart meter and information regarding base stations (BSs) connected to the smart meter; receiving an access request message regarding a particular BS among the BSs from the terminal; transferring the access request message to the particular BS the BSs which are connected to the smart meter; and transferring the response message to the terminal if a response message is received from the particular BS.
- BSs base stations
- the transferring of the access request message may include encapsulating the access request message according to a protocol between the smart meter and the particular BS.
- the transferring of the message may include: receiving a request message with respect to the message; and transmitting the message in response to the reception of the request message.
- the access request message may be a handover request message, and the handover request message may include one or more of the ID of the terminal, information regarding a BS the terminal has been currently accessed, information regarding the reason of handover, and context information.
- the terminal may include a transceiver configured to receive a message including information regarding a smart meter and information regarding neighbor BSs connected to the smart meter; and a processor configured to determine at least one of BSs connected to the smart meter, as a BS to be accessed, based on the message, wherein the transceiver transmits an access request message for accessing the determined BS to the smart meter, and when a response message is received from the smart meter, the transceiver accesses the determined BS.

- the target femto BS in order to transfer information required for the terminal’s accessing, to the target femto BS, a procedure such as a ranging process is performed.
- the target femto BS which has received information on the terminal, could not receive service information of the terminal via serving BS, differently from a handover procedure.
- the initial network entry process is optimized to thus shorten time required for the initial network entry.
- the methods according to the present invention described thus far can be implemented as software, hardware or their combination.
- the method according to the present invention may be stored in a storage medium (e.g., an internal memory, a flash memory, a hard disk, and the like), and may be implemented as codes or commands in a software program that can be executed by a processor (e.g., a microprocessor).
- a storage medium e.g., an internal memory, a flash memory, a hard disk, and the like
- a processor e.g., a microprocessor
- FIG. 7 is a schematic block diagram of the terminal 100, the femto BS 200, and the smart grid 600 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
- the terminal 100 includes a storage unit 101, a controller 102, and a transceiver 103.
- the femto BS 200 includes a storage unit 201, a controller 202, and a transceiver 203.
- the smart grid 600 includes a storage unit 601, a controller 602, and a transceiver 603.
- the storage units 102, 202, and 602 store the methods illustrated in FIGS. 3 to 6.
- the controllers 102, 202, and 602 control the storage units 101, 201, and 602 and the transceivers 103, 203, and 603.
- the controllers 102, 202, and 602 execute the methods stored in the storage units 101, 201, and 602.
- the controllers 102, 202, and 602 transmit the foregoing signals through the transceivers 103, 203, and 603.
