Description

一种基站切换方法、 基站、 用户设备和通信系统
技术领域
本发明涉及移动通信技术领域, 尤其涉及一种基站切换方法、基站、 用户 设备和通信系统。 背景技术
在长期演进系统( LTE, Long Term Evolution )异构网络中, 如图 1所示, 在宏基站( Macro Home evolved Node B )覆盖范围内放置有多个小型基站, 例 如微微蜂窝基站( Pico )、 家庭基站( HeNB, Home eNB )、 毫微微基站( Femto eNB ), 中继 (Relay )等, 这些小型基站可以采用有线或无线方式接入网络, 用户设备(UE, User Equipment )处于宏基站和小型基站的双重覆盖下, 整个 通信系统较以往传统的 LTE宏基站网络具有更高的容量。 在办公楼宇、 商场、 校园网等场景下, 利用这些小型基站和宏基站的异构部署, 可以有效的增强网 络覆盖, 提升频谱效率。
在 LTE异构网络下, 一个宏基站周围可能布置有多个小型基站, 这些小 型发射功率小,覆盖面积一般只能达到家庭或办公场所的面积大小。 以家庭基 站为例, 如图 2所示, 为宏基站和家庭基站构成的异构网络, 为了清晰描述用 户设备和家庭基站、 宏基站之间的交互过程, 没有画出其它的小型基站, 但是 在实际应用中一个宏区域内会存在多个小型基站。当服务基站为宏基站的用户 设备靠近一个家庭基站时, 为了提升通信系统的吞吐量、 减轻宏基站的负荷, 宏基站需要将用户设备切换到家庭基站。 用户设备利用指纹功能 (finger printer )识别出当前处于家庭基站的覆盖范围内或邻近区域, 并且用户设备将 家庭基站的载波的频率信息报告给宏基站,由宏基站指示用户设备测量家庭基 站的载波的频率,若用户设备测量的家庭基站信号质量较好, 则宏基站会将用 户设备切换到家庭基站。 缺陷: 随着无线通信技术的发展, 家庭基站可以支持多个载波, 为了能够避免 周围小型基站的载波干扰,家庭基站可以将目前工作的载波的频率动态的更换 到其它的载波的频率。如图 2所示, 家庭基站可以动态的更换自身的载波的频 率, 例如从工作在载波的频率 f2选择到载波的频率 f3, 或者从工作在单个载 频 f2更换到工作在载波的频率 f3和 f4上,而图 2中所示的用户设备向宏基站 报告的家庭基站的载波的频率信息是用户设备上一次处于该家庭基站的覆盖 范围内时记录的该家庭基站的载波的频率信息,假设用户设备上一次处于该家 庭基站的覆盖范围内时记录的该家庭基站的载波的频率为 f2,当用户设备将该 家庭基站的载波的频率 f2报告给宏基站时, 根据现有技术, 宏基站将指示用 户设备去测量该家庭基站的载波的频率 f2,以使用户设备能够切换到该家庭基 站的载波的频率 f2。但是,此时若家庭基站的载波的频率自从上一次用户设备 处于该家庭基站的覆盖范围之后发生了更换,用户设备由于无法获得家庭基站 目前真实的载波的频率,用户设备就无法切换到该家庭基站目前真实的载波的 频率, 会导致用户设备的切换失败。 发明内容

为使得本发明的发明目的、 特征、优点能够更加的明显和易懂, 下面将结 合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、 完整地描 述,显然,下面所描述的实施例仅仅是本发明一部分实施例,而非全部实施例。 基于本发明中的实施例, 本领域的技术人员所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于 本发明保护的范围。
请参阅图 3 , 本发明实施例提供的基于基站侧实现的一种基站切换方法示 意图, 图 3示例的方法主要包括:
301、 第一基站获取第二基站的可用载波的频率信息或第二基站当前使用 的载波的频率信息。
其中, 可用载波的频率信息为第二基站能够使用的所有的载波的频率信 息。
在本发明实施例中,第一基站和第二基站只是为了区别描述两个基站而采 用的描述方式,第一基站和第二基站在具体实际应用中分别可以是宏基站和小 型基站中的一种, 小型基站可以具体为家庭基站或者具有接入权限的家庭基 站, 小型基站还可以为微微蜂窝基站(Pico )、 家庭基站(HeNB )、 毫微微基 站( Femto eNB )、 中继 ( Relay )等, 此处不作限定。
需要说明的是,第二基站的可用载波的频率信息为第二基站能够使用的所 有的载波的频率信息,第二基站的可用载波的频率信息具体可以为一个载波的 频率或多个载波的频率。第二基站当前使用的载波的频率信息为第二基站正工 作在的载波的频率。 为了能够避免周围基站的载波干扰, 第二基站可以将目前 工作的载波的频率动态的更换到其它的载波的频率。 在实际应用中,第一基站获取第二基站的可用载波的频率信息或第二基站 当前使用的载波的频率信息具体可以有多种实现方式,例如: 第一基站通过操 作管理维护 ( OAM, Operation Administration and Maintenance ) 系统获取到第 二基站的可用载波的频率信息或第二基站当前使用的载波的频率信息。或, 第 一基站通过 OAM系统接收第二基站发送的第二基站的可用载波的频率信息或 第二基站当前使用的载波的频率信息。或, 第一基站通过第一基站和第二基站 之间的接口 (例如 X2接口)获得第二基站的可用载波的频率信息或第二基站 当前使用的载波的频率信息。 其中, OAM系统主要用于对日常网络和业务进 行的分析、 预测、 规划、 配置、 测试和故障管理等。 在 OAM系统中, 第一基 站可以获取第二基站的可用载波的频率信息或第二基站当前使用的载波的频 率信息,第二基站也可以将自身的可用载波的频率信息或当前使用的载波的频 率信息发送给第一基站。
302、 第一基站接收用户设备发送的接近指示。
该接近指示用于向第一基站通知该用户设备位于接近所述第二基站的位 置或正在向接近所述第二基站的位置移动。其中,接近指示包括第一接近指示、 第二接近指示、 第三接近指示中的至少一个, 其中, 第一接近指示包括用户设 备指示的第二基站的载波的频率信息。第二接近指示包括第二基站的标识信息 或封闭用户组标识( CSG ID, Closed Subscriber Group ID ), 标识信息具体可 以为: 演进型陆地无线接入网全球小区识别码(ECGI, E-UTRAN Cell Global Identifier )物理小区标识( PCI, Physical Cell Identifier )等。 第三接近指示包括 用户设备当前所处位置的位置信息。
在本发明实施例中,通过用户设备向第一基站发送接近指示, 第一基站通 过该接近指示可以获取到用户设备可能切换到的基站。接近指示包括: 第一接 近指示、 第二接近指示、 第三接近指示中的至少一个, 即用户设备向第一基站 可以将第一接近指示、第二接近指示、第三接近指示中的一个或两个或全部发 送给第一基站。在实际应用中,用户设备可以将第一接近指示、第二接近指示、 第三接近指示中的内容都预置在一个接近指示中向第一基站上报,也可以分开 以多个接近指示的方式向第一基站上报, 此处不作限定。
303、 第一基站基于接近指示向用户设备下发测量配置。
其中, 测量配置用于指示用户设备在测量配置所指示的频率处执行测量。 在本发明实施例中, 第一基站接收到用户设备发送的接近指示之后, 第一 基站向用户设备下发测量配置,指示用户设备在测量配置所指示的频率处执行 测量,具体可以为指示用户设备在第二基站的可用载波的频率处或在第二基站 当前使用的载波的频率处执行测量。在实际应用中, 第一基站具体可以指示用 户设备在第二基站的每一个可用载波的频率处都执行测量。第一基站也可以指 示用户设备在第二基站当前使用的载波的频率处执行测量。
在实际应用中, 一种优选的实现方式是, 可用载波的频率信息具体可以包 括: 两个以上的可用载波的频率集合。 第一基站获取第二基站的可用载波的频 率信息时,第一基站获取到的该可用载波的频率信息为两个以上的可用载波的 频率集合。
当接近指示包括第一接近指示时,第一基站基于接近指示向用户设备下发 测量配置具体可以包括:
第一基站根据第一接近指示所指示的载波的频率,从可用载波的频率信息 中查找第一接近指示所指示的载波的频率属于的可用载波的频率集合。
第一基站指示用户设备在第一接近指示所指示的载波的频率属于的可用 载波的频率集合中的每一个频率处执行测量。
举例说明: 第二基站将自身所有的可用载波的频率 (如: Fl、 F2、 F3、 F4 )分成两个集合分另1 J为 F1和 F2, F3和 F4。
假如用户设备向第一基站上报的第一接近指示包括的载波的频率为 F1 , 从可用载波的频率信息中查找 F1属于的可用载波的频率集合为 F1和 F2。 第 一基站指示用户设备在可用载波的频率集合 F1和 F2中的每一个频率(即 Fl、 F2 )处执行测量。
该优选实现方式可以使第一基站在指示用户设备执行测量时的针对性,例 如直接测量第一接近指示中的 F1属于的频率集合 F1和 F2, 而不需要对第二 基站的所有载波的频率(如: Fl、 F2、 F3、 F4 )执行测量, 提高测量效率。
在实际应用中, 另一种优选的实现方式是, 可用载波的频率信息具体可以 包括: 两个以上的可用载波的频率集合。 第一基站获取第二基站的可用载波的 频率信息时,第一基站获取到的该可用载波的频率信息为两个以上的可用载波 的频率集合。
当接近指示包括第二接近指示时,第一基站基于接近指示向用户设备下发 测量配置具体可以包括:

第一基站指示用户设备在与第二接近指示所指示的第二基站的标识信息 或封闭用户组标识相对应的可用载波的频率集合中的每一个频率处执行测量。
举例说明: 以第二接近指示包括第二基站的标识信息为例说明, 第二接近 指示包括第二基站的封闭用户组标识也相似, 此不仅以其一举例。 第二基站将 自身所有的可用载波的频率 (如: Fl、 F2、 F3、 F4 )按照第二基站的标识信 息(Ml、 M2 )分成两个集合分别为 F1和 F2, F3和 F4。
假如用户设备向第一基站上报的第二接近指示包括的标识信息 Ml , 从可 用载波的频率信息中查找与 Ml相对于的可用载波的频率集合为 F1和 F2。 第 一基站指示用户设备在可用载波的频率集合 F1和 F2中的每一个频率(即 Fl、 F2 )处执行测量。
该优选实现方式可以使第一基站在指示用户设备执行测量时的针对性,例 如直接测量第二接近指示中的 Ml相对应的频率集合 F1和 F2, 而不需要对第 二基站的所有载波的频率(如: Fl、 F2、 F3、 F4 )执行测量, 提高测量效率。
304、 第一基站接收用户设备反馈的基于测量配置的测量报告, 测量报告 被第一基站用于判断是否将用户设备从第一基站切换到第二基站。
在本发明实施例中, 第一基站向用户设备下发测量配置之后, 用户设备将 在第二基站的可用载波的频率处或在第二基站当前使用的载波的频率处执行 测量, 并生成基于该测量配置的测量报告, 则第一基站可以接收到用户设备反 馈的基于该测量配置的测量报告,以使第一基站能够根据该测量报告判断是否 将用户设备从第一基站切换到第二基站。
需要说明的是,在如图 3所示的实施例中, 第二基站的可用载波的频率信 息具体可以指的是第二基站的小区的可用载波的频率信息。第二基站当前使用 的载波的频率信息具体可以指的是第二基站的小区的当前使用的载波的频率 信息。
在本发明实施例中 ,第一基站能够获取到第二基站的可用载波的频率信息 或第二基站当前使用的载波的频率信息, 当接收到用户设备发送的接近指示 后,第一基站指示用户设备在第二基站的可用载波的频率处或在第二基站当前 使用的载波的频率处执行测量,第一基站接收用户设备反馈的基于测量配置的 测量报告,以使第一基站能够根据测量报告判断是否将用户设备从第一基站切 换到第二基站。由于第一基站能够获取到第二基站的可用载波的频率信息或当 前正在使用的载波的频率信息, 当第一基站向用户设备下发测量配置后, 用户 设备能够在第二基站的真实的载波的频率处执行测量,所以能够提高用户设备 切换的成功率。
