Technical field

The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a multi-mode baseband resource processing method and apparatus. Background technique

In the mobile communication network, the base station serves as the lowest access device of the access network. Currently, there are various communication systems, such as WCDMA Wide-band Code Division Multiple Access, Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) system, and CDMA (Code Division Multiple). Addressing, Code Division Multiple Access) system, TD-SCDMA (Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access) system, Wimax (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access, Global Interoperability for Microwave Access), LTE (Long Term Evolution) system. Among them, CDMA is mainly CDMA2000, and CDMA2000 includes CDMA2000 IX, EV-DO and EV-DV.

The multi-standard base station includes a baseband resource module and a radio resource module. In the prior art, multi-standard The radio resources of the network are now shared and managed under multi-mode, while the baseband resources of the multi-standard network are managed independently (for example, the maximum number of physical channels CE supported by the base station and the maximum number of EV-DO services supported by the base station. The number of CEs is independent of each other. b The baseband resources of the IX and EV-DO networks of the current CDMA base station are separated (for example, the baseband chips of the IX system and the EV-DO system are independent, and the unified control module manages the logic resources provided by different chips. Independent management), although the same system can be managed by a unified control module, but the resource management of different standards is independent and independent.

In the prior art, the resource management method for the voice service and the packet data service in the CDMA2000 IX system is provided, that is, the voice is absolutely prioritized, including: when the voice user and the data user apply for the resource at the same time, the voice user is preferentially allocated resources; When the baseband resource applied by the user is insufficient, the data service user resource is removed and used by the voice user. The strategy of network resource management under the EV-DO system is to allocate resources according to the user's priority, such as dividing users into dedicated users, gold, silver, and bronze users. However, for the coexistence of multiple systems in a network, IX and EV-DO baseband resources are independently allocated and managed, which cannot implement existing baseband resource sharing management, thus reducing the utilization of baseband hardware resources.

With the rapid development of the Micro Cell Small Cell technology (Small Cell supports multiple wireless port standards including GSM, CDMA2000, TD-SCDMA, WCDMA, LTE and WiMax), the integration of baseband resources has been further improved, and the current baseband resources Due to their independent allocation and management, it is inconvenient for operators and users, and the utilization of hardware resources is reduced. Summary of the invention

The technical problem to be solved by the embodiments of the present invention is to provide a multi-mode baseband resource processing method and device, which can implement baseband resource sharing and management under multi-mode, and improve hardware resource utilization.

The embodiment of the invention provides a multi-mode baseband resource processing method, which provides a processing strategy for multi-system baseband resource sharing, realizes multi-mode baseband resource sharing and management, improves hardware resource utilization, reduces hardware cost, and solves the problem of shared resources. The problem of competition leading to the lack of timely service of key services enables key services to be serviced in a timely manner.

Referring to FIG. 1 , it is a flowchart of a method according to an embodiment of the present invention, including:

Step 101: Receive a service request sent by a user.

Step 102: Determine a service priority of the service requested by the user, and a network system priority corresponding to the service.

Optionally, before step 101, the method further includes: storing a service priority of each service and network system priority information corresponding to each type of service; the service according to the service type It is divided into different service priorities, and each type of service is divided into different network system priorities according to the network standard. In step 102, the service priority of the service requested by the user and the network system priority corresponding to the service may be determined according to the stored information. For example, the services in the CDMA network include a voice service and a data service, and the service priority of the voice service is higher than the service priority of the data service. Further, the voice service is divided into different priorities according to the network standard, and different network standards are used. The voice service corresponds to the unused network standard priority. For example, the voice service is classified into IX voice service, EV-DO Voip (voice over Internet Protocol) service, LTE Voip service, and other modes of voice service according to the priority of the network standard. It is also classified according to the priority of the network standard from high to low: EV-DO data service, LTE high-speed data service, IX data service, other mode data service, and the like.

Optionally, users can also be divided into different user priorities. For example, the user's priority can include: Vip users (very Important Person) and mid-level users.

Step 103: Allocate a baseband resource to the user according to the service priority of the service requested by the user and the network standard priority corresponding to the service.

Different from the prior art, the embodiment of the present invention performs baseband resource allocation according to the priority of the service requested by the user and the priority of the network standard corresponding to the service, and can uniformly allocate idle resources in multiple standard networks. Increased resource utilization. Referring to Figure 2, there is shown a flow chart of another embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment describes the technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention in more detail, which is illustrated by the resource management in two different standard networks of IX and EV-DO, but is not limited thereto, if three different standard networks are used, The principle and processing method are similar.

As shown in Figure 2, it includes:

Step 201: Receive a service request sent by a user.

Step 202: Determine a service priority of the service requested by the user, a network system priority corresponding to the service, and a user priority of the user.

Before the foregoing step 201, the method further includes: storing a service priority of each service, network system priority information corresponding to each type of service, and user priority information of the user; the service is divided into different service priorities according to the service type. And each type of service is divided into different network system priorities according to the network standard, and users are also divided into different user priorities. In step 202, the service priority of the service requested by the user, the network system priority corresponding to the service, and the user priority of the user may be determined according to the stored information.

The invention divides the service into a voice service and a data service according to the service type. In this embodiment, the voice service and the data service are taken as an example, but it is not excluded that other service types are added on the basis of this.

Each business can include multiple formats, such as

1) Voice services include: CDMA IX voice, EV-DO Voi service, LTE Voi service, Other ways of voice business, etc.;

2) Data services include: high-speed data services in EV-DOA/DOB, LTE high-speed data services, IX low-speed data services, and other standard data services.

Each of the above services is divided into service priorities, and each service can be divided into different network system priorities according to the network standard. This information is stored in advance. When prioritizing services by network, you can consider the quality of service and resource overhead. For example, a service corresponding to a network standard with good service quality and low resource overhead is set to a higher network standard priority. For example, the voice quality of IX is better than that of EV-DO, and the resource overhead is small. Therefore, the network standard priority corresponding to the voice service of IX can be set higher than the network standard corresponding to the Voip service of EV-DO.

Optionally, users can be divided into different priorities in addition to dividing the services into different priorities. For example, the user is divided into a high-level user and a medium-level user, and the high-level user has a higher priority than the middle-level user. When a high-level user and a medium-level user simultaneously request a certain service, such as IX voice service, priority can be given to assigning baseband resources to high-level users.

Step 203: Perform baseband resource allocation for the user according to the service priority of the service requested by the user, the network system priority corresponding to the service, and the user priority of the user.

For example, when receiving a service request sent by multiple users of multiple systems, the service priority of the services requested by the multiple users is compared first. Users with high priority should be considered first, and users with lower priority will be considered. For example, when user 1 requests voice service and user 2 requests data service, The baseband resource is preferentially allocated to the user who requests the voice service. When the resource is insufficient, the baseband resource of the user with the lower priority of the service can be forcibly removed, that is, the data service resource is forcibly removed for use by the user with high priority. The criterion for measuring whether the resources are insufficient is whether to use the total resources (such as user resource, modem resource, searcher resource, finger resource, etc.) b and the forced release refers to releasing a user who is using resource of.

If there are multiple users requesting the same type of service, the baseband resources are allocated to the users according to the network system priority corresponding to the service.

Assume that the network system priority of the voice service is: IX voice service > £^00 Voip service > LTE Voip service; the network system priority of the data service is: EV-DOA/DOB high-speed data service > LTE high-speed data service > IX Low-speed data services. For example, both user 1 and user 2 are requesting voice services. If user 1 requests IX voice service and user 2 requests EV-DO Voip service, user 1 may first allocate baseband resources to the user. 2 Allocate baseband resources.

If the service priority of the service requested by multiple users is the same as the priority of the network standard, resources can be allocated according to the user priority of the user. For example, first assign high-level users baseband resources, then consider low-level users. The user's priority can be determined by an agreement between the user and the operator.

FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of service classification according to an embodiment of the present invention.

For example, the service type is classified into a voice service and a data service, and the voice service has a high priority. Business priority for data services. In the voice service, the priority of the network system is divided into: IX voice, EV-DO Voip service, LTE Voip service, and other voice services. In the data service, the priority of the network standard is divided into: EV-DOA/DOB data service (medium-speed X LTE high-speed data service, IX data service (middle-low speed X other mode data service. Users can also be divided into High-level users and medium-level users.

The following is a simple example to illustrate the implementation process of the technical solution of the embodiments of the present invention. Assume that the small cell Small Cell supports CDMA2000 IX and EV-DO. The number of IX voice users can be up to 32, and the number of EV-DO users can be up to 16. This example also shows that the baseband resources of IX and EV-DO are combined into one chip. When used for IX voice services, the call service can be provided for up to 32 users, and all of them can be used for EV-DO services. Provide services. Therefore, it is also explained that the baseband resources used by the EV-DO service are larger than the IX service.

(1) When the IX voice service competes with the DOA data service for resources, the baseband resource is preferentially allocated for the IX voice service; for example, there are 20 IX voice users and 12 DOA data users in the Small Cell cell, which has reached the maximum resource usage of the cell. Number, when one user in the cell initiates an IX voice service request, the BSC controls the baseband resource of one DOA data service user to be demolished (decoupled according to the lowest user level), and allocates the baseband resource to the initiated IX voice. User of the business request.

(2) Similarly, when IX voice users compete with EV-DO Voip users for resources, priority is given to The user who is the IX voice service request allocates the baseband resource.

When multiple users request the same type of service, the baseband resources can be allocated to the multiple users according to the network system priority. For example, voice services are ranked in descending order of network system priority: IX voice service > £¥"00 Voip service> LTE Voip service, so after receiving service requests from multiple users, the system will follow this priority. The baseband resources are allocated to each user in the order of high to low, for example, the baseband resources are preferentially allocated to the users requesting the IX voice service, and the baseband resources are allocated to the users requesting the EV-DO Voip service. When the baseband resources are insufficient, the network standard takes precedence. A low-level service may not be able to obtain baseband resources, and users who request the service cannot make a call.

(3) When all the resource allocations of the Small Cell have been occupied by the IX voice users, if the IX voice service request initiated by the high-level user is received, the system will demolish the baseband resources of the low-level users and assign them to the high-level users;

In this case, when the service type and the network standard requested by multiple users are the same, the baseband resource is preferentially allocated to the user with high user priority. The baseband resources provided by the hardware are limited. For example, a chip can provide baseband resources for up to 32 users. When the number of users using the baseband resources of the chip has reached the maximum number of 32, if a high-level user initiates a service request, The system will then demolish the baseband resources of a low-level user to provide services for high-level users. If all users are high-level users, the system cannot allocate baseband resources for this high level. (4) The operator can adjust the order of the above service priority, network standard priority or user priority as needed.

It should be noted that the above embodiments are only examples, and the operators can dynamically adjust according to the needs of different periods.

It can be found from the foregoing description of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention that the embodiments of the present invention have the following beneficial effects: maximizing the utilization of baseband resources by an effective baseband resource allocation strategy, for example, the traffic of the IX voice in a certain period of time Large, resource utilization is high, but the traffic of the EV-DO data is small, and the resources are almost idle. The embodiment of the present invention can use the idle EV-DO resource for the IX, thereby improving the resource utilization of the EV-DO; The embodiment improves the user experience and improves the user's satisfaction; the embodiment of the invention can reduce the hardware cost and conform to the operator's profit model, for example, adopting a multi-standard baseband chip and a unified resource management method for the Small cell, as opposed to The prior art requires several single-system baseband chips (such as stand-alone IX and EV-DO baseband chips) to reduce hardware costs.

It should be noted that the embodiments of the present invention can be applied to multi-mode systems, including CDMA, UMTSs, TD-SCDMA, LTE, and the like.
