Definitions
- the present invention relates to a communication system for distributing traffic load between base stations, a radio base station, a traffic load distribution method, and a storage medium storing a traffic load distribution program.
- a backhaul (hereinafter referred to as a mobile backhaul) between a radio base station and a mobile core network may be configured by a plurality of links.
- FIG. 12 is a block diagram illustrating an example of a mobile backhaul.
- the mobile backhaul is divided into an access link, an aggregation link, and a metro link.
- the access link is a link that accommodates a radio base station connected to a relay device installed in the access area.
- the aggregation link is a link that accommodates a plurality of radio base stations connected to a relay device installed in the access area, and a radio base station (not shown in FIG. 12) installed in the aggregation area.
- the metro link is a link in the metro area, and is a link for transferring large-capacity mobile data traffic of a plurality of radio base stations transferred via the aggregation link to the mobile core network.
- communication resources in the backhaul are referred to as backhaul resources.
- the traffic load on the backhaul resource is called a backhaul resource load.
- eNB evolved Node B
- MLB Mobility Load Balancing
- FIG. 13 is a sequence diagram showing resource status notification processing between eNBs.
- a resource status request message (X2: RESOURCE STATUS REQUEST message) is transmitted from eNB1 to an adjacent eNB (hereinafter referred to as an adjacent eNB), that is, eNB2.
- an adjacent eNB an adjacent eNB
- a response message (X2: RESOURCE STATUS RESPONSE message) to the resource status request message is transmitted from eNB2 to eNB1.
- FIG. 14 is an explanatory diagram showing the structure of a resource status request message.
- the eNB1 designates the load information of the neighboring eNB (eNB2) that has established the X2 link as a measurement target in the resource status request message.
- the eNB 1 designates “TNL (Transport Network Layer) load Index Period” in the parameter “Report Characteristics (measurement target item)” of the resource status request message.
- TNL Transport Network Layer
- Report Characteristics Measurement target item
- the eNB 1 receives a resource status update message (X2: RESOURCE STATUS UPDATE message) from the neighboring eNB.
- X2 RESOURCE STATUS UPDATE message
- FIG. 15 is an explanatory diagram showing the structure of the resource status update message.
- the resource status update message received by the eNB 1 includes “S1 TNL Load Indicator” as shown in FIG.
- S1 TNL Load Indicator is load information of the S1 transport network layer (hereinafter referred to as S1 network load information).
- the S1 network load information is information indicating a backhaul resource load of the link between the eNB and the relay device at the first hop from the eNB, that is, the access link.
- the value of the S1 network load information is indicated in four stages of “LowLoad”, “MediumLoad”, “HighLoad”, and “Overload”.
- the eNB 1 When the load on the TNL exceeds a certain threshold, the eNB 1 performs a handover (handover) in order to switch the cell in which the wireless terminal is located from the cell of the eNB 1 to a cell of an adjacent eNB with a low load. In order to do so, the handover attribute value (the value of the parameter for controlling handover described in the above technical specification) is changed. At this time, eNB1 designates a cell of an adjacent eNB having a low load as a handover destination based on the S1 network load information received from the adjacent eNB. Here, it is assumed that eNB1 specifies the cell of eNB2.
- eNB1 hands over the cell where the wireless terminal is located from the cell of eNB1 to the cell of eNB2, and distributes the backhaul resource load.
- Patent Document 1 describes a technique that enables route selection processing to appropriately distribute traffic by adding line congestion information to load distribution processing conditions in an IP network.
- eNB1 and eNB2 use different access links.
- the aggregation link at the end of the access link used by eNB1 and eNB2 is the same, and that the backhaul resource load is high and congested in the aggregation link.
- the load distribution function works in each eNB. That is, the above procedures 3 to 4 are executed. Thereby, the cell in which the wireless terminal is located hands over from the cell of eNB1 to the cell of eNB2. As a result, the backhaul resource load in the access link is distributed. However, in the aggregation link, the backhaul resource load does not change, so congestion is not eliminated. For this reason, it is impossible to avoid a decrease in the throughput of the radio terminal in the cell of the handover destination eNB2. The reason is that the value indicated by “S1 TNL Load Indicator” included in the resource status update message indicates the backhaul resource load of the access link. That is, load distribution is not performed in consideration of the load information of the aggregation link.
- FIG. 16 is a block diagram showing an outline of a wireless communication network.
- radio base stations eNBs 103 to 105
- EPC Evolved Packet Core
- the eNB 103 and the eNB 104 are connected to the relay apparatus 101.
- the eNB 105 is connected to the relay device 102.
- the relay apparatuses 101 to 102 are connected to the EPC 100.
- the eNB 103 and the eNB 104 and the eNB 104 and the eNB 105 are connected by an X2 link, respectively.
- the radio terminal 106 is located in the cell of the eNB 104 (cell 108 shown in FIG. 16).
- the radio terminal 106 is connected to the EPC 100 via the eNB 104 and the relay device 101.
- the state of the backhaul resource load in the link 111 connecting the EPC 100 and the relay apparatus 101 is “HighLoad”.
- the state of the backhaul resource load on the link 112 connecting the EPC 100 and the relay apparatus 102 is “MediumLoad”.
- the state of the backhaul resource load in the link 113 connecting the relay apparatus 101 and the eNB 103 is “LowLoad”.
- the state of the backhaul resource load in the link 114 connecting the relay apparatus 101 and the eNB 104 is “HighLoad”.
- the state of the backhaul resource load on the link 115 connecting the relay apparatus 102 and the eNB 105 is “MediumLoad”.
- “S1 TNL Load Indicator” received by the eNB 104 from the eNB 103 that is, the value of the S1 network load information indicates the backhaul resource load of the link 113. Therefore, the eNB 104 acquires “LowLoad” as the value of the S1 network load information of the eNB 103. Similarly, the value of the S1 network load information that the eNB 103 receives from the eNB 104 is “HighLoad”. Further, the value of the S1 network load information received by the eNB 104 from the eNB 105 is “MediumLoad”.
- each eNB determines which neighboring cell is the handover destination of radio terminal 106 based on the value indicated by the load information. .
- each eNB shares only S1 network load information.
- the eNB 104 determines the cell of the eNB 103 (the cell 107 shown in FIG. 16) as the handover destination because the value of the S1 network load information of the eNB 103 is “LowLoad”.
- FIG. 17 is an explanatory diagram showing how the eNBs 103 to 104 hand over the wireless terminal from the cell (cell 108) where the wireless terminal is located to another cell (cell 107).
- the eNB 103 and the eNB 104 cooperate to change the setting of the handover attribute value so that the radio terminal 106 can easily perform handover from the cell 108 to the cell 107. That is, the eNB 103 and the eNB 104 change the setting of the handover attribute value and move the handover boundary so that the cell 107 becomes the handover destination.
- the area of the cell 107 before changing the handover attribute value is indicated by a broken line in FIG.
- the backhaul resource load on link 114 is reduced, and the backhaul resource load on link 113 is increased. Thereby, the load is distributed between the link 113 and the link 114.
- the backhaul resource load of the link 111 that aggregates the link 113 and the link 114 is originally “HighLoad”. Therefore, even if the load is distributed between the link 113 and the link 114, the load on the link 111 is not reduced and remains “HighLoad”. Therefore, even if the cell in which the wireless terminal 106 is located is handed over, a decrease in the throughput of the wireless terminal 106 may not be avoided.
- a handover destination cell is determined based on a frequency band that can be used by each adjacent radio base station.
- the frequency band that can be used by each adjacent radio base station is defined by the difference between the total transport capacity allocated to the radio base station and the total GBR (guaranteed bit rate) of the active bearer.
- the total GBR of the active bearer is the total of the GBR of the active bearer including the communication overhead according to the S1 interface protocol (S1 Interface protocol).
- the above optimization method uses a transport capacity that takes into account only the backhaul resource load of the link between the radio base station and the first-hop relay device from the radio base station, that is, the access link. Therefore, in the above optimization method, the backhaul resource load of the aggregation link ahead of the access link is not considered.
- the frequency band defined by the difference between the transport capacity and the GBR total of the active bearer differs depending on whether or not the backhaul resource load of the aggregation link ahead of the access link is considered. As a result, even if MLB is executed between the radio base stations based on the optimization method, it is difficult to avoid congestion of the aggregation link and a decrease in throughput of the radio terminal.
- the present invention provides a communication system, a radio base station, a traffic load distribution method, and a storage medium storing a traffic load distribution program that can avoid backhaul congestion and avoid a decrease in terminal throughput. For the purpose.
