背景技术
LTE ( Long Term Evolved, 长期演进网络)是目前 3gpp ( 3rd Generation Partnership Program, 第三代合作伙伴计划)组织中的一种移动通信网络, LTE是 UMTS ( Universal Mobile Telecommunication System, 通用移动通信 系统) 的演进网络。 LTE的空中接口通过部署 eNB ( evolved Node B, 演进节 点 B) 来实现, eNB与 UE (User Equipment, 用户设备)进行通信, 实现移动 业务的空口传输。
WiFi (Wireless Fidelity, 无线保真)是 WLAN (Wireless Local Access Network,无线局域网)的一个标准,是由无线终端和 WiFi AP( Access Point, 接入点)组成的通信网络, AP可以称为网络桥接器或接入点, 是传统的有线局 域网与无线局域网之间的桥梁。 随着 WiFi技术的发展, 目前 WiFi网络已可以 为 UE提供便捷的数据服务(如 WiFi上网业务)。
随着用户量的增加、 数据业务的增长, 移动网络常出现拥塞, 网络运营商 为了緩解移动网络的拥塞, 需要部署更多的基站来提高网络容量, 但这势必会 增加投资成本与维护成本。 为了解决这一矛盾, 网络运营商可以采用移动数据 分流的方式, 即将移动网络(如 LTE) 中的部分业务(如上网业务)连接到补 充网络(如, WiFi (Wireless Fidelity, 无线保真)、 家庭基站等)上, 以緩 解移动网络的压力。

为使本发明的目的、 技术方案和优点更加清楚, 下面将结合附图对本发明 实施方式作进一步地详细描述。
通信领域的数据分流可以理解为, 将移动通信系统(如 LTE (Long Term Evolution,长期演进)系统)中的部分业务(如上网业务)连接到补充网络(如, WiFi (Wireless Fidelity, 无线保真)、 家庭基站等)上, 以緩解移动通信系 统的压力。
本发明实施例中,用户设备可以根据移动通信系统中基站的指令进行 WiFi 测量, 得到测量报告, 并向基站发送测量报告, 使得基站可以根据测量报告对 用户设备进行数据分流控制。
本文中结合终端和 /或基站来描述各种方面。
用户设备, 指向用户提供语音和 /或数据连通性的设备, 包括无线终端或 有线终端。 无线终端可以是具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、 或连接到无线调 制解调器的其他处理设备, 经无线接入网与一个或多个核心网进行通信的移动 终端。 例如, 无线终端可以是移动电话(或称为 "蜂窝" 电话)和具有移动终 端的计算机。 又如, 无线终端也可以是便携式、 袖珍式、 手持式、 计算机内置 的或者车载的移动装置。 再如, 无线终端可以为移动站 (英文为: mobile station ), 接入点 (英文为: access point ), 或用户装备 (英文为: user equipment , 筒称 UE)等。
基站, 可以是指接入网中在空中接口上通过一个或多个小区与无线终端通 信的设备。例如,基站可以是 GSM或 CDMA中的基站(英文为: base transceiver station, 筒称 BTS), 也可以是 WCDMA中的基站(英文为: NodeB ), 还可以是 LTE中的演进型基站(英文为: evolutional Node B, 筒称 eNB或 e_NodeB ), 或者是后续演进网络中的基站, 本发明对此并不做限定。
本发明实施例可以应用于多种通信系统, 例如长期演进 (Long Term
Evolution, 筒称为 LTE ) 系统, 宽带码分多址 ( Wideband Code Division
Multiple Access, 筒称为 WCDMA) 系统, 通用分组无线业务( General Packet Radio Service )等。 图 1为本发明实施例提供的一种通信方法的流程图, 请参阅图 1 , 该发送 方法可以包括:
110、 用户设备接收基站发送的测量配置信息, 该测量配置信息用于指示 该用户设备对无线保真接入点 (Wi reles s Fide l i ty Acces s Point , 筒称为 WiF i AP )进行测量, 该测量配置信息包括 WiFi测量对象和 WiFi测量量。
其中, 该 WiFi测量对象及 WiFi测量量可以根据具体应用场景进行确定, WiF i测量对象可以为一个或多个, WiFi测量量可以为一个或多个。
120、 该用户设备根据该 WiF i测量量对该 WiFi测量对象进行测量, 得到 测量报告。
130、 向该基站发送该测量报告, 用于该基站根据该测量报告确定将该用 户设备分流至该 WiF i AP或与该 WiF i AP停止通讯。
上述测量配置信息可以包含于其他消息之中由基站发送, 也可以由基站单 独发送, 本发明实施例不做限定; 上述测量报告可以包含于其他消息之中向基 站发送, 也可以单独向基站发送, 本发明实施例不做限定。 本发明实施例中提 及的用户设备可以是具有通信功能的设备, 如手机、 平板电脑等。
本发明实施例提供的通信方法, 通过接收基站发送的 WiF i 测量对象和 WiF i测量量, 根据 WiF i测量量对 WiFi测量对象进行测量, 得到测量^艮告, 向 基站发送测量报告, 基站能够根据测量报告确定将用户设备分流至 WiFi AP或 与 WiF i AP停止通讯, 从而实现用户设备在基站和 WIFI AP间的分流。
本发明实施例中, 可选地, 上述 110中该用户设备接收基站发送的测量配 置信息时, 根据不同的应用场景, 该用户设备可以接收该基站发送的无线资源 控制 (Radio Resource Control , 筒称为 RRC )连接释放消息, 该 RRC连接释 放消息具有该测量配置信息;
或者, 该用户设备可以接收该基站广播的系统信息, 该系统信息具有该测 量配置信息;
或者, 该用户设备可以接收该基站发送的 RRC连接重配置消息, 该 RRC连 接重配置消息具有该测量配置信息。
其中, 通过 RRC连接释放消息接收该测量配置信息后, 用户设备进入空闲 态 (例如可以理解为用户设备与基站断开连接); 通过 RRC连接重配置消息接 收该测量配置信息后, 用户设备保持连接态(例如可以理解为用户设备与基站 的通讯持续连接); 通过小区广播接收该测量配置信息时, 通常用户设备处于 空闲态。
本发明实施例中, 可选地, 该测量配置信息还可以包括测量启动指示, 该 测量启动指示用于指示对该 WiFi测量对象启动测量的时间或周期。则上述 120 中根据该 WiFi测量量对该 WiFi测量对象进行测量时, 可以根据该测量启动指 示指示的时间或周期, 按该 WiFi测量量对该 WiF i测量对象进行测量。
进一步, 该测量启动指示用于指示当该用户设备处于空闲态时, 该用户设 备接收该基站发送的寻呼消息后根据该 WiFi测量量对该 WiFi测量对象进行测 量。
例如, 用户设备在收到 RRC连接释放消息后进入空闲态, 基站在该 RRC连 接释放消息中携带测量配置信息)。 又如, 用户设备原本就处于空闲态, 通过 基站的广播获取测量配置信息。 当基站通过寻呼消息发起业务时, 该用户设备 可以发起与基站连接, 且马上进行 WiF i AP的相关测量。 该方案可以缩短 WiFi AP相关测量的发起时间, 可以减少用户设备分流到 WiF i AP的时延, 增强用户 体验。
进一步, 该测量启动指示用于指示当该用户设备接入该 WiFi AP后, 根据 该 WiF i测量量对该 WiFi测量对象进行测量。
例如, 用户设备已经分流到了 WiF i AP, 用户设备通过测量启动指示所指 示的时间或周期进行测量以获悉 WiF i测量量, 例如获悉 wi f i信号强度 RCPI 的情况。 可选的, 用户设备可以在 200ms内总共发起 5次测量。 该方案可检测 WIFI AP是否仍旧适用于用户设备的分流, 若不适用, 则将该用户设备切回基 站, 由基站进行通讯, 以保证通信质量。
进一步, 该测量启动指示用于指示当该用户设备接入该基站后, 根据该 WiF i测量量对该 WiFi测量对象进行测量。
再例如, 如果该测量启动指示用于指示该用户设备立即进行测量, 则该用 户设备立即按该 WiFi测量量对该 WiFi测量对象进行测量。
再例如, 如果该测量启动指示用于指示该用户设备在特定时间进行测量, 则到达该特定时间时, 该用户设备按该 WiFi测量量对该 WiFi测量对象进行测 量。
再例如, 如果该测量启动指示用于指示特定周期进行测量, 则到达该特定 周期时, 该用户设备按该 WiF i测量量对该 WiFi测量对象进行测量。
再例如,如果该测量启动指示用于指示收到该基站发送的触发消息进行测 量, 则该用户设备收到该触发消息后, 按该 WiFi测量量对该 WiFi测量对象进 行测量。
应当理解, 本发明实施例还包括其他根据该测量启动指示该用户设备按该
WiF i测量量对该 WiFi测量对象进行测量的情形, 不再赘述。
当然, 本发明实施例还可以预先设定测量 4艮告的发送时间, 测量配置信息 中不再包含发送指示。 例如, 用户设备在生成测量报告后立即向基站发送测量 报告, 此时, 如果用户设备未接入基站, 则先接入基站; 或者用户设备在下次 接入基站时发送测量报告。
本发明实施例中, 可选地, 该测量配置信息还可以包括该 WiFi 测量量对 应的门限及测量报告指示, 该测量报告指示用于指示生成测量报告的条件。 上 述 120中可以根据该 WiFi测量量对应的门限及该测量 4艮告指示, 生成该测量 报告。
具体地,如果该测量配置信息还包括该 WiFi测量量中第一 WiFi测量量对 应的第一门限, 则可以根据该测量 4艮告指示, 该第一 WiFi 测量量的测量结果 大于该第一门限时, 生成该测量报告。 例如, 第一 WiFi测量量可以是 RCPI , 配置的第一门限可以是 25 dBm ,则根据该测量报告指示,当终端测量得到的 RCP I 大于 25 dBm时, 触发测量^艮告。
或者, 如果该该测量配置信息还包括该 WiFi测量量中第二 WiFi测量量对 应的第二门限, 则可以根据该测量 4艮告指示, 该第二 WiFi 测量量的测量结果 小于该第二门限时, 生成该测量报告。 例如, 第二 WiFi测量量可以是 RCPI , 配置的第一门限可以是 15 dBm ,则根据该测量报告指示,当终端测量得到的 RCP I 小于 15 dBm时, 触发测量报告。
或者, 如果该该测量配置信息还包括该 WiFi测量量中第三 WiFi测量量对 应的第三门限, 及该 WiFi测量量中第四 WiF i测量量对应的第四门限, 则可以 根据该测量 4艮告指示, 该第三 WiFi 测量量的测量结果大于该第三门限且该第 四 WiFi 测量量的测量结果小于该第四门限时, 生成该测量 告; 或者, 可以 根据该测量 4艮告指示, 该第三 WiFi 测量量的测量结果小于该第三门限且该第 四 WiFi 测量量的测量结果大于该第四门限时, 生成该测量 告; 或者, 可以 根据该测量 4艮告指示, 该第三 WiFi 测量量的测量结果大于该第三门限且该第 四 WiFi 测量量的测量结果大于该第四门限时, 生成该测量 告; 或者, 可以 根据该测量 4艮告指示, 该第三 WiFi 测量量的测量结果小于该第三门限且该第 四 WiFi 测量量的测量结果小于该第四门限时, 生成该测量 告。 例如, 第三 WiF i测量量可以是 RCPI , 配置的第三门限可以是 25dBm, 第四 WiFi测量量可 以是 RSNI , 配置的第四门限可以是 -10dB, 则根据该测量报告指示, 当终端测 量得到的 RCPI大于 25dBm、 终端测量得到的 RSNI小于 -10dB时, 触发测量报 告; 或者 ^据该测量 4艮告指示, 当终端测量得到的 RCPI小于 25dBm、 终端测量 得到的 RSNI大于 -10dB时, 触发测量4艮告; 或者根据该测量 4艮告指示, 当终端 测量得到的 RCPI大于 25dBm、 终端测量得到的 RSNI大于 -10dB时, 触发测量 才艮告; 或者 ^据该测量 4艮告指示, 当终端测量得到的 RCPI小于 25dBm、 终端测 量得到的 RSNI小于 -10dB时, 触发测量4艮告。

再例如, 测量报告显示用户设备所处的环境存在多个信号较好(如信号强 度高于预设门限) 的 WiFi AP时, 可以生成接入多个信号较好的 WiFi AP中信 号最好的 WiFi AP的指令;
再例如, 测量报告显示用户设备当前连接的 WiFi AP信号较差 (如信号强 度低于预设门限)时,可以生成断开当前连接的 Wi F i AP使用移动通信系统(如 LTE )进行数据传输的指令, 以保证数据传输质量;
再例如, 测量报告显示用户设备所处环境存在信号较好(如信号强度高于 预设门限) 的 WiFi AP时, 可以生成断开当前进行数据传输的移动通信系统 (如 LTE )连接到该信号较好的 WiFi AP的指令, 以减少移动通信系统的数据 传输量;
再例如, 测量报告显示用户设备当前连接的 WiFi AP信号较差 (如信号强 度低于预设门限)且存在信号较好(如信号强度高于预设门限) 的 WiFi AP 时, 可以生成从当前连接的 WiFi AP切换到该信号较好的 WiFi AP的指令, 以保证数据传输质量。
这样, 基站根据用户设备发送的测量报告发送连接指示, 使得用户设备根 据连接指示进行的通信连接, 能够保证用户设备通信质量提高用户体验。
