本发明提出一种在 3G小区覆盖边缘发现 2G邻区的方法, 该方法基于 MR数据进行 2G邻区发现的基本思想是:通过统计已部署的 2G网络中 MR 样本点在地理上的分布情况, 获取现有 2G 网络在各地理栅格 (如一个 100x100m的区域)上的 2G小区信号的强弱情况, 进一步地, 通过地理定 位, 获取 3G小区在准备启动 CS和 PS切换时的系统边界, 通过对系统边 界上 2G信号的分布进行分析, 优选出最合适切换的 2G小区, 据此对已有 3G-2G邻区的配置情况进行优化调整。
本发明方法的实施需要有两个前提条件:
条件一、 2G网络已部署了 MR系统, 能正常获取 2G网络面覆盖情况; 条件二、 边缘 3G小区已简单配置少量 2G邻区 (不必是优化过的 ), 以触发 3G小区边缘发现过程。
对已经过较长时间运维的 2G网络, 上述两个条件是不难满足的。
图 1为本发明提出的在 3G小区覆盖边缘发现 2G邻区的方法流程图, 主要包括以下步骤:
步骤 101 : 依据测量报告(MR )为满足 3A事件中对 2G小区电平门限 要求的每个栅格, 生成以 CGI分组的 2G小区在该栅格上的信号质量评估 结果列表 Li;
所述 3A事件定义为 "当前 3G系统的质量低于一个门限并且 2G系统 的质量高于一个门限"。 3A事件的出现表明 3G系统已基本无法为终端提供 良好服务, 需要及时切换到信号质量更好的 2G系统内。 故 3A事件发生后 通常 RNC会判决并命令终端执行 3G到 2G的切换操作。
图 2为本发明优选实施例依据 MR为每个栅格生成列表 Li的流程图, 子步骤如下:
步骤 201 : 针对每个 2G 系统的 MR测量 4艮告,对该 MR进行地理化定 位处理, 获取该 MR样本点的经纬度值;
鉴于 2G和 3G网络中的地理化定位方法已有成熟算法, 本发明不限制 具体使用的地理化定位算法, 故本发明不再赘述。 步骤 202:在每一个地理栅格内依据 MR中提供的 CGI、RxLev、BCCH、 BSIC等信息, 对相同 CGI小区进行分组, 并按 RxLev进行 MR样本点排 序;
假设一个 100x100m的栅格内包括了 N个 MR样本点, 每个 MR样本 点包含 CGI( Cell Global Identifier,小区全球标识符), RxLev( Received Signal Level,接收信号电平), BCCH ( Broadcast Control Channel,广播控制信道 ), BSIC ( Base Station Identity Code , 基站识别码), BSCID ( Base Station Controller Identifier, 基站控制器标识符)等信息。 这些信息一部分是来自 标准的 Um口 (基站与终端之间的空中接口)测量报告, 一部分是由 BSC ( Base Station Controller, 基站控制器)在标准空口测量报告的基础上添加 进去的。
对 N个样本按 CGI进行分组(假设为 M组), 并按 RxLev对每个 CGI 分组内的 MR样本进行降序排列;
步骤 203 : 对每组 CGI, 按 RxLev的分布情况计算平均值, 确定 CGI 与 RxLev的一对一映射关系;
本发明优选实施例中, 对按 RxLev排序后的每个 CGI分组通过如下方 式计算 RxLev的平均值: 去除前 15%的 MR样本和后 15%的 MR样本, 对 剩下的 70%的 MR样本进行 RxLev值平均,得到每个 CGI与 RxLev的一对 一映射关系, 共 M条映射关系。
步骤 204: 才艮据期望的 3A事件门限, 过滤电平较低的 2G小区, 最终 为每个栅格生成一个至少包含 CGI和 RxLev信息的信号质量评估结果列表 Li;
根据 3G网络向 2G网络切换的 3A事件中对 2G小区电平要求的门限, 在 M条 CGI与 RxLev的映射关系中, 删除平均 RxLev不满足门限值的条 目, 最终为每个栅格生成一个至少包含 CGI和 RxLev的信号质量评估结果 列表, 供后续的处理使用。 进一步地, 所述列表中还可包括 BCCH和 BSIC 等信息, BCCH和 BSIC信息可以用于是否存在同频同色码情况的判断。
步骤 102: 根据 2D事件的测量报告和用户设备 ( UE )上报的定位测量 才艮告, 利用定位算法, 确定 3G网络到 2G网络切换发生时刻的网络边缘; 所述网络边缘为由栅格组成的线状或面状区域;
所述 2D事件定义为 "当前使用 3G载波的估计质量低于某一门限"。 2D事件的出现是为了提醒 RNC , 3G系统的信号开始下降, 需要准备寻找 更好的 3G或 2G小区作为替代。故 2D事件发生后通常 RNC会命令终端对 候选 2G邻区进行测量, 希望找到一个合适的 2G小区, 以便在 3A事件发 生后执行切换操作。
图 3为本发明优选实施例确定 3G网络到 2G网络切换发生时刻的网络 边缘的流程图, 主要包括如下步骤:
步骤 301、 RNC ( Radio Network Controller, 无线网络控制器)对已配 置 2G邻区的 3G小区, 给 UE下发 2D事件相关的测量控制;
若某个 3G小区 C 已配置若干个初始的 2G邻区, 则当电路域 /分组域 ( CS/PS )呼叫建立在小区 C时, 会为 UE下发 2D事件相关的测量控制。
步骤 302: 2D事件上报后, RNC下发一次性定位测量任务给 UE; 当 2D事件触发后 , UE向 RNC上报 2D事件的测量报告 ( MR 2D ) ,, RNC认为此时 C小区的载波质量已经下降到一个门限, 需要及时切入 2G 系统。 RNC会在收到 2D事件报告后立即为 UE下发一个定位测量任务,该 测量报告只需要汇报一次。根据 UE的能力, RNC可能下发 AGPS ( Assisted Global Positioning System,辅助全球定位系统)定位测量,也可能下发 Tx-Rx Time Difference (发送接收时差)类型的定位测量。
步骤 303 : 根据 UE上报的定位测量报告 MR_Loc, RNC为每个有 2G 邻区的 3G小区生成 (MR_2D, MR_Loc)列表; 将 2D事件的测量报告和 UE上报的定位测量报告 MR Loc进行组合, RNC为小区 C生成一个(MR_2D, MR Loc ) 列表, 其中 MR_2D中的信 息也可以用于辅助定位计算。
步骤 304: 根据定位算法, 获取 3G小区的切换边界区域;
利用定位算法, 对(MR_2D, MR Loc )列表中的每个取值都可以定位 出一个地理栅格, 由(MR_2D, MR Loc )列表定位出的若干个地理栅格组 成的线状或面状区域就是 C小区到 GSM系统的切换边界。
有以下四点需要进一步说明:
1 )若 C小区的切换区域包含较多的地理上分隔开的离散栅格, 表明 C 小区的切换边界比较复杂, 这可能是由于无线环境的复杂性导致的, 也可 能是由于天馈设计不合理导致的。 需要结合小区的工程参数和环境信息进 行进一步的分析。
2 )真正意义上的 C小区的切换边界应该是由 3A事件或 3C事件 (定 义为 "2G 系统的估计质量高于某一门限")发生时对应的地理位置来表征 的, 而不是 2D事件。 但在 3G-2G网优实践中, 通常 3A事件中定义的 3G 载波质量门限小于 2D事件中定义的 3G载波质量门限,也就是说,只要 2D 事件触发, 就认为 3A事件有极大的概率会触发(如果 2G信号足够好)。 这样在第二步中根据 2D事件获取的系统间切换边界可认为是合理的边界。 3C事件由于与 3G小区的载波质量无关, 因此不影响结论。
3 )对 CS和 PS业务, 可以定义不同的 2D事件门限, 因此其对应的切 换边界可能是不同的。 当 CS和 PS业务的 2D门限差距越大, C小区的切 换边界所包含的栅格点就越多。
4 )严格来说, 由于 MR_Loc的获取是在 MR_2D之后, 因此若 UE处 于移动状态,则根据 MR Loc解码出来的地理位置与 2D事件发生的地理位 置是有些许偏差的。 但是在实际应用过程中, 这种偏差的影响不大, 可以 忽略。
步骤 103:对所述确定的网络边缘所包含的栅格对应的信号质量评估结 果列表 Li进行合并处理, 获取最合适切换的 2G候选邻区;
如图 4所示, 4叚设 3G到 2G切换的边界区域如图中条状区域所示, 该 切换边界区域内的栅格的集合为 B , B={bl,b2,..., bi, bn}。 对 B中的每一个 栅格 bi, 都有对应的一个通过步骤 101得到的列表 Li, 包括(CGI、 BCCH, BSIC, RxLev )字段, 对所有 Li组成的集合进行合并处理, 处理方法与步 骤 101 中的处理方法类似。 合并后, 先根据 CGI对集合中的所有 (CGI, BCCH, BSIC , RxLev )条目进行分组, 然后对每个分组内的多个 RxLev 值取算术平均,得到每个 CGI对应的平均 RxLev值,建立 CGI与平均 RxLev 值之间的——对应关系, 便于之后按 RxLev排序。
假设处理结果包含 P个(CGI, BCCH, BSIC, RxLev )格式的条目。 若 P<=32, 那么 C小区的 2G邻区就由 P个 CGI来表征。 若 P>32, 则按平 均 RxLev值的降序排列, 取前 32个 CGI来作为 C小区的 2G邻区。 若对 2G邻区数量有要求, 按要求选择 RxLev靠前的若干个小区即可。
需要说明的一点是, 若在 P个条目中发现存在 BCCH和 BSIC相同但 是 CGI不同的情况, 表明 2G邻区中存在同频同色码的情况。 通常来说这 是不应该出现的。 若出现这种情况, 可从中取 RxLev最强的 CGI作为最终 2G邻区, 剔除 RxLev较差的 CGI, 并输出日志文件提醒工程师注意。
步骤 104: 根据 2G小区的切换、 接入、 干扰等性能统计结果, 进一步 调整 2G邻区的优先级, 得到最终的 2G邻区配置方案。
由于 RxLev并非决定 2G邻区合适程度的唯一因素, 因此, 还可结合 其他外部数据, 对得到的 2G邻区进行进一步的调整。 实际中, 可才艮据这些 2G邻区在 2G系统内的切换成功率、 呼叫阻塞率、 干扰情况等性能统计结 果, 排除性能较差的 2G邻区, 从而进一步调整 2G邻区的优先级, 得到最 终的 2G邻区配置方案。
以下为本发明方法的一个具体实施例, 具体步骤如下:
第一步, 假设在一个栅格内上报了 100个 2G MR样本点, 每一个样本 点包含(CGI, RxLev, BCCH, BSIC , BSCID )信息。 根据 CGI进行分组, 得到 4组。假设第一组 CGI为 20001 ,包含 20个 MR点,即对应 20个 RxLev 值, 其降序排列如下 (其他字段取值忽略):
-60, -62, -63, -65, -66,
-68, -69, -70, -72, -74,
-75, -78, -80, -81, -83,
-84, -85, -89, -90, -92
去掉前 15%和后 15%各 3个样本点, 对中间的 14个取值求平均, 得到 -75 UBm )。 参见图 4中第一个表格的第一行。
殳设其他三组 CGI对应的 RxLev分别如下:
20012 ->-78, 20182 -> -65, 20117 -> -82
若 3A事件对应的 2G电平门限为 -80dBm, 则 20117小区被滤除。 最终 对这个栅格处理的结果得到图 4中的第一个表格。
第二步, 假设根据 3G手机上报的(MR_2D, MR Loc )进行地理定位 所获的栅格组成的是图 4 中所示的条带状区域, 区域内每一个栅格都对应 若干个 2G小区信息。
第三步,假设 3G->2G切换区域只包含图 4所示的 2个黑色栅格,则通 过对这两 2个黑色栅格对应的 2G信息表进行合并, 对相同 CGI下的多个 RxLev值进行平均, 可得到如下信息:
Figure imgf000013_0001
最终得到 5个 2G小区, 作为图 4所示的 3G小区的邻区。 若按配置策 略只能选择 4个 2G邻区, 则按 RxLev进行筛选, CGI=20012的小区被滤 除, 因为其平均 RxLev最低。
