Description

一种获取用户终端的位置信息的方法及系统 技术领域  Method and system for acquiring location information of user terminal
本发明涉及通信技术领域, 尤其涉及一种获取用户终端的位置信息的方 法及系统。 背景技术  The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method and system for acquiring location information of a user terminal. Background technique
最小化路测 (Minimization Of Drive Tests, MDT) 是在 LTE Rel-10阶段 引入的新功能, 其目的在于通过网络侧配置普通终端参与到路测工作当中。 路测是指运营商通过对部署网络的实地测试 (包括测量不同地理位置的小区 导频信号强弱、 广播信道覆盖和误码率、 寻呼成功概率以及终端吞吐量等等 参数)。由于目前的测试都需要配备专用测量仪器的车辆和人力沿着道路不停 的测试, 故这种测试称作路测。  Minimization Of Drive Tests (MDT) is a new feature introduced in the LTE Rel-10 phase. The purpose is to configure the common terminal to participate in the drive test work through the network side. Road test refers to the operator's field test of the deployed network (including measuring the pilot signal strength of different geographical locations, broadcast channel coverage and bit error rate, paging success probability and terminal throughput, etc.). Since the current tests require vehicles and manpower equipped with dedicated measuring instruments to be tested along the road, this test is called road test.
最小化路测, 其引入的驱动力就是通过让普通终端参与路测工作, 从而 最小化运营商的路测成本。 目前, 3GPP对 MDT的研究主要分为 2个阶段: Minimize the drive test, the driving force is to minimize the operator's drive test cost by letting the ordinary terminal participate in the drive test. At present, 3GPP's research on MDT is mainly divided into two stages:
1.研究什么样的路测工作可以交给普通终端?目前, 3GPP已经完成了这 一阶段的工作; 2.对普通终端如何参与路测工作进行标准化,这个阶段工作正 在进行中。 1. What kind of road test work can be submitted to the ordinary terminal? At present, 3GPP has completed this phase of work; 2. Standardize how ordinary terminals participate in road test work, and work is in progress at this stage.
其中, 在 MDT研究中, 如何获得终端的位置信息是关系到最小化路测 功能能否实用的关键因素。 目前获得路测终端位置信息的方法为:  Among them, in the MDT research, how to obtain the location information of the terminal is a key factor related to whether the minimization of the drive test function can be practical. The current method for obtaining the location information of the road test terminal is:
当终端被配置进行最小化路测时, 一旦终端釆集到了路测数据 (如导频 强度、 终端吞吐量等), 则终端需要将如下位置信息嵌入到釆集的路测数据之 中: 1.如果终端此时拥有有效的 GNSS的位置信息, 则终端需要将 GNSS位 置信息嵌入到路测测量量中;  When the terminal is configured to minimize the drive test, once the terminal collects the drive test data (such as pilot strength, terminal throughput, etc.), the terminal needs to embed the following location information into the collected drive test data: 1 If the terminal has valid GNSS location information at this time, the terminal needs to embed the GNSS location information into the drive measurement volume;
2.如果终端此时没有有效的 GNSS的位置信息, 则终端需要上报最多 6 个同频小区的导频强度信息作为辅助位置信息。  2. If the terminal does not have valid GNSS location information at this time, the terminal needs to report the pilot strength information of up to 6 intra-frequency cells as the auxiliary location information.
接着, 当 OAM获得终端上报的路测日志时, 釆用如下办法获得路测日 志中测量量的相应位置信息:  Then, when the OAM obtains the drive test log reported by the terminal, the following method is used to obtain the corresponding position information of the measured quantity in the drive test log:
1.如果路测日志中含有 GNSS位置信息, 则 OAM可直接使用 GNSS相 关信息作为位置信息; 1. If the drive test log contains GNSS location information, OAM can directly use GNSS phase. Off information as location information;
2.如果路测日志中不含有 GNSS位置信息, 则 OAM会根据日志中携带 的最多 6个同频邻区导频信号强度来推断出对应的位置信息, 其推断方法是 OAM平时会维护一张小区导频与地理位置的对应关系表,接着 OAM根据不 同邻小区导频强度的值去查表, 就可以获得位置信息。  2. If the drive test log does not contain GNSS location information, the OAM will infer the corresponding location information according to the maximum pilot strength of the same frequency neighboring cell carried in the log. The inference method is that the OAM usually maintains a piece of information. The mapping table between the cell pilot and the geographic location, and then the OAM can look up the table according to the values of the pilot strengths of different neighboring cells, and the location information can be obtained.
但是, 由于釆用现有技术获得最小化路测日志中测量量的位置信息过多 的依赖于 GNSS系统, 如果 GNSS系统没有工作, 则只能通过导频查表的方 法获取位置信息, 而此方法获得的位置信息精度很难满足运营商对路测日志 的精度要求, 从而降低了路测日志测量量的有效性。 发明内容  However, since the existing information is used to minimize the positional information of the measurement volume in the drive test log, the GNSS system is too dependent on the GNSS system. If the GNSS system is not working, the location information can only be obtained by the pilot lookup table. The accuracy of the location information obtained by the method is difficult to meet the operator's accuracy requirements for the drive test log, thereby reducing the effectiveness of the drive test log measurement. Summary of the invention
本发明针对上述缺点, 提供了一种获取用户终端的位置信息的方法, 该 方法能够在不借助于 GNSS系统下获取到用户终端的位置信息, 进而减轻了 对 GNSS系统的依赖程度。 此外, 本发明还公开了一种获取用户终端的位置 信息的系统、 演进型基站以及网管。  The present invention is directed to the above disadvantages, and provides a method for acquiring location information of a user terminal, which can obtain location information of a user terminal without using a GNSS system, thereby reducing the dependence on the GNSS system.

b)用户终端测量到的至少 3个小区的定位参考信号的时间差。  b) The time difference of the positioning reference signals of at least 3 cells measured by the user terminal.
本发明釆取了上述技术方案以后, 可以由网络侧选择是否触发用户终端 釆集辅助位置信息以进行辅助定位, 由此, 可以根据网络侧的需求而进行数 据釆集并实现精确定位; 此外, 该种方法由于釆取的是网络侧的演进服务移 动定位中心进行定位, 能够减轻现有的方法对全球导航卫星系统(GNSS)的 依赖; 并且, 该方法可以较好地实现精确定位的效果。 After the above technical solution is adopted, the network side can select whether to trigger the user terminal to collect the auxiliary location information for auxiliary positioning, thereby performing data collection and accurate positioning according to the requirements of the network side; This method can mitigate the existing methods for Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) by locating the network-side evolved service mobile positioning center. Dependency; and, the method can better achieve the effect of precise positioning.
进一歩地, 优选的方法是, 所述歩骤 A包括:  Further, the preferred method is that the step A includes:
演进型基站接收用户终端上报的最小化路测的测量日志;  The evolved base station receives the measurement log of the minimized drive test reported by the user terminal;

进一歩地, 优选的方法是, 所述演进型基站根据演进型基站所转发的业 务的定位需求来触发向用户终端发起辅助位置信息测量的控制指令;  Further, the preferred method is that the evolved base station triggers a control instruction for initiating the measurement of the auxiliary location information to the user terminal according to the positioning requirement of the service forwarded by the evolved base station;
