Description

Method and device for adjusting random access parameters

The embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method and a device for adjusting random access parameters. Background technique

The user equipment (UE, user equipment) needs to initiate a random access procedure before performing data transmission with the base station. The user equipment first selects an access slot, and sends a random access preamble to the base station through the random access channel. If the user equipment does not receive the acknowledgment message from the base station, the user equipment starts the pre-crawling process to improve the transmit power of the random access preamble. The random access preamble is sent again, until the user equipment receives the acknowledgement message from the base station, indicating that the random access preamble is successfully sent, and the user equipment may then send the random access information to the base station to complete the random access procedure.

In the random access procedure, the user equipment needs to use random access parameters to randomly transmit the preamble. The random access parameters can directly affect the quality of the random access procedure. If the actual access conditions of the network are not considered, only the pre-configured random access parameters are used to send the random access preamble, which will result in the random access success rate being too low.

In the prior art, a method for automatically optimizing random access parameters is proposed. The base station device adjusts the random access parameters according to the number of random access attempts reported by the user equipment. In the prior art, when random access parameter adjustment is performed, there are multiple random access attempts, and the current random access channel has been congested, and the success rate of random access has been reduced.

It is obvious that the drawings in the following description are only some embodiments of the present invention.

FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of a user equipment according to an embodiment of the present invention. detailed description

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more comprehensible, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

The various techniques described herein can be used in a variety of communication systems, such as current 2G, 3G communication systems and next generation communication systems, such as the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM), Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA, code) Division multiple access system, time division multiple access (TDM A, time division multiple access) system, wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA) system, long term evolution (LTE, long term evolution) system and subsequent evolution system Wait.

The communication system of the embodiment of the present invention may include a base station device and a user equipment. Its The base station device can be configured to communicate with the user equipment.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a working scenario of a base station device. In FIG. 1, the base station device includes a base station controller, and the base station controller can manage at least one base station, such as the base station 1, the base station 2, and the base station 3 shown in FIG. 1, between each base station and the base station controller. There is data interaction. Each base station can manage at least one cell, such as base station 1 - base station 3, which manages one cell, namely, cell 1, cell 2, and cell 3. The cell 1 includes a user equipment 1, a user equipment 2, and a user equipment 3. When a certain user equipment wants to move from an idle state to a connected state, or is in a cell forward access state, a cell paging state, or a registered area paging state. When the uplink information is sent in different states, the connection may be established with the base station 1 through the random access procedure to obtain the corresponding communication service. The random access procedure of each user equipment and the base station 1 is performed independently, and the base station can simultaneously process random access requests sent by multiple user equipments. When a certain user equipment moves to another cell, it can re-establish connection with other base stations to ensure the quality of service.

In different wireless communication systems, the base station device may comprise different components, for example, in a GSM, CDMA or WCDMA system, the base station device may comprise a base station and a base station controller, and the base station may be finger-joined A device in the network that communicates with the user equipment over one or more sectors on an air interface, for example, may be a base transceiver station (BTS) of a GSM, or CDMA system, or may also be a WCDMA system. Node B (Node B); the base station controller may be a base station controller (BSC) in a GSM, or CDMA system, or a radio network controller (RNC) in a WCDMA system. The base station and the base station controller may be connected by wire or wirelessly The base station is under the control of the base station controller. The user equipment may be a user equipment that performs data transmission with a base station in a wireless manner, such as a mobile phone, a personal computer having a wireless communication function, and the like. In the LTE system and the LTE subsequent further evolved system, the base station device may include an evolved node: 6 (e-Node B, evolved Node B), and the e-Node B may have some functions controlled by the base station, including, for example, Scheduling transmission of paging information; scheduling transmission of broadcast information; and setting and providing measurement of e-Node B, and the like.

As the number and quality of data transmission services required by the user equipment are higher and higher, the user equipment in the cell initiates more random access requests to the base station equipment in a unit time, and the data transmission capacity of the cell random access channel is limited. The channel congestion is prone to occur, and the random access preamble transmission is unsuccessful. The random access attempt by the user equipment is repeated, resulting in a decrease in the random access success rate and further deterioration of the channel signal energy.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the base station device acquires the load condition on the random access channel of the area according to the number of times of the acknowledgment message of the random access preamble sent by the user equipment in the cell, and then uses the information on the user equipment. The random access parameters are reasonably adjusted.

Taking the WCDMA system as an example, the user equipment may send a random access preamble to the Node B. After receiving the ACK, the Node B sends an acknowledgment message to the user equipment, indicating that the random access preamble is successfully sent, and the number of times the Node B records the acknowledgment message. And reporting to the RNC according to the period, the RNC processes the number of the acknowledgment messages and compares with the preset threshold, and exceeds the preset threshold to adjust the random access parameters.

The LTE system is used as an example. The user equipment can send a random access preamble to the e-Node B. After receiving the e-Node B, the e-Node B sends an acknowledgment message to the user equipment, indicating that the random access preamble is successfully sent, and the e-Node B records. The number of times the message is confirmed and compared with a preset threshold If the preset threshold is exceeded, the random access parameters are adjusted.

The user equipment may send the random access preamble to the base station device by using the adjusted random access parameter. The main random access parameters include the initial power constant of the random access preamble, the power ramp step of the random access preamble (PowerRampStep), and the maximum number of climbs of the random access preamble (PreambleRetransMax). The user equipment sends a random access preamble with an initial transmit power, where the initial transmit power is proportional to the initial power constant; if the initial transmit power is not detected by the network device, the preamble transmission fails, and the network device does not send the user The device sends an acknowledgement indication, and the user equipment needs to start the corresponding lead climbing cycle period, increase the power by a certain power, and then send the signal again after a period of time until the power is greater than or equal to the value that the base station device can detect and is confirmed. Sent successfully. If the number of times the user equipment retransmits the preamble exceeds the maximum number of climbs and the base station equipment has not been acknowledged, the transmission fails.

The adjusting the random access parameter in the embodiment of the present invention refers to adjusting the value of the random random access parameter, that is, adjusting according to the initial value of the random access parameter, and obtaining the adjusted random access parameter, the random access parameter. The initial value can be pre-configured in the base station device.

An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for adjusting random access parameters. Referring to FIG. 2, the method includes:

101: The base station device receives a random access preamble sent by the user equipment according to the random access parameter.

The user equipment may be any one or any of a plurality of user equipments of the base station equipment. When the user equipment needs to perform uplink data transmission, it can access the random access channel.

(RACH, random access channel) sends a random access preamble.

Further, if there is both a RACH and an enhanced-random access channel (E-RACH) in the cell, the user equipment may also use the E-RACH to send a random access preamble to the base station.

102: After receiving the random access preamble, the base station device sends an acknowledgement message to the user equipment, where the acknowledgement message indicates that the base station device successfully receives the random access preamble.

103: The number of times the base station device records the acknowledgement message.

The base station device may record the number of acknowledgment messages sent to the user equipment, and the number of acknowledgment messages may reflect the load condition on the RACH. If the load is too high, the risk of channel congestion may occur; if the random access request keeps increasing RACH will be congested, affecting the success rate of random access.

If the user equipment sends a random access preamble through the E-RACH, the user equipment may be referred to as an E-RACH user. The base station device can record the number of acknowledgment messages for the random access preamble transmitted on the E-RACH. In the channel congestion decision, the transmission of the acknowledgment number of the random access preamble of the E-RACH is considered. Optimizing the random access parameters of the E-RACH user can also effectively reduce the E-RACH load and improve the success of the E-RACH user random access. Therefore, the channel congestion described in the embodiment of the present invention may include congestion of the RACH; or congestion of the E-RACH; or congestion of both the RACH and the E-RACH.

The base station device can record the delivery to the user equipment in the period according to a preset period. The number of times the message is acknowledged, and the number of acknowledgment messages in multiple preset periods is recorded. The base station device may further perform filtering processing on the number of the acknowledgment messages recorded in the multiple preset periods to obtain the number of times of the processed acknowledgment message, and the number of the processed acknowledgment messages may be used as the acknowledgment message. The number of times used. The filtering process refers to filtering out the number of times of the plurality of confirmation messages that are too high and too low. The filtering process is performed to prevent an abnormal peak from occurring in the actual number of acknowledgment messages within a specific time, resulting in an unnecessarily triggering adjustment process of the random access parameters. The length of the preset period may be set according to system requirements and actual network operation conditions. For example, if the system can carry a large load, the preset period may be set to a time length greater than a time when the system carries a smaller load. Length; If there are more users in the network during actual network operation, the length of the preset period can be set shorter. If there are fewer users in the network, the length of the preset period can be set longer. Alternatively, the base station device may also perform a comprehensive condition to set the length of time of the preset period. For example, the choice is 1 second to ensure the accuracy of the channel congestion decision. In the embodiment of the present invention, the length of the preset period is not limited.

After the number of times of the acknowledgment message is filtered, the accuracy of the channel congestion state is determined according to the number of times the acknowledgment message is processed. Taking the base station device including the base station and the base station controller as an example, the filtering process can be performed in two ways. The first method is to record the number of times of the confirmation message by the base station, and report the number of times of the confirmed acknowledgement message. To the base station controller, the base station controller performs filtering processing on the number of times of the acknowledgement message. For example, in a WCDMA system, the number of times the Node B periodically reports the acknowledgment message, and the RNC calculates the average of the number of N (N > 1 , N is an integer) acknowledgment messages reported by the Node B. In order to reduce the impact on the RNC control plane, Node B A longer reporting period can be used, for example 10s~30s. For example, if the reporting period is 10s and N is 5, the Node B reports the number of times the acknowledgment message is obtained to the RNC once every 10 seconds, and the RNC can record the number of 5 acknowledgment messages reported, and then 5 The average of the number of times the acknowledgment message is used as the number of acknowledgment messages after processing.

The second method is to record and filter the number of times the acknowledgment message is completed by the base station, and then report the number of times of the acknowledgment message to the base station controller. For example, in the WCDMA system, the number of times the acknowledgment message is recorded by the Node B in a preset period, and then the averaging process is performed on the number of acknowledgment messages recorded in the M preset periods, where ^ > 1 , M is an integer. For example, if the preset period is 10s and M is 5, the Node B will average the number of times of the 10th, 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s confirmation messages recorded, and the processed confirmation message will be processed. The number of times is reported to the RNC.

The above two statistical methods are also applicable to 2G/3G communication systems such as GSM and CDMA. In the evolved system including only the base station LTE and subsequent, the above-mentioned recording and processing of the number of acknowledgement messages can be completed by the e-Node B.

104: The base station device compares the number of the acknowledgment messages with a first threshold, where the first threshold is used to indicate a channel congestion status.

The first threshold has a mapping relationship with a channel congestion state. The channel congestion state may be represented by various parameters, for example, by a congestion coefficient, assuming that the channel is fully congested to 100%, and A is a congestion coefficient (the value of A is between 0 and 1), corresponding to A. * 100% congestion status, can be reacted with different first thresholds. In order to reflect the prevention of channel congestion, for example, A can be set to reflect the value of the channel congestion state at the critical point, and the corresponding first threshold can be processed according to RACH or E-RACH. Therefore, corresponding to different channel congestion states, the first threshold may take different values. For example, as shown in Table 1, it is assumed that the number of acknowledgment messages corresponding to the channel full congestion is 30 times per second.

Example of mapping relationship between threshold and channel congestion status

It should be noted that the correspondence between the value of the first threshold and the congestion coefficient is only an example. In an actual application, different values of the first threshold and different congestion coefficients may be set. The mapping relationship between the first threshold and the parameter indicating the congestion state of the channel may be set. The embodiment of the present invention is not limited herein.

Optionally, the first threshold may also be determined according to the user equipment random access request in the same 'region to reach the full load of the cell, where the full load indicates the upper limit of the base station device processing the random access request, and the channel may be embodied. Congestion status. The value of the first threshold is proportional to the ability of the base station device to process the random access request. Assuming that the full load of the cell is N times (N>1, N is an integer), the first threshold = Ν-Δ, Δ can be dynamically adjusted according to the method. For example, if the base station device sends the random access confirmation message to the user equipment for 30 times as the full load of the cell, the first threshold may be selected by 30-Δ times, for example, 20 to 25 times. The first threshold may be dynamically adjusted by the base station device according to the actual situation of the network, or may be set in advance with reference to the empirical value, which is not limited in this embodiment. When the number of the acknowledgment messages is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the number of random access preambles to be processed in the current cell is large, and the channel congestion risk exists in consideration of the capacity of the channel capacity. The channel pressure can be alleviated by reducing the frequency and number of random access preamble transmissions, and the random access preamble transmission failure due to channel congestion is avoided.

If the number of the acknowledgment messages is less than the first threshold, it can be considered that the degree of current channel congestion is still within the tolerance range of the base station device, and the base station device can successfully receive the random access preamble, and is not affected by channel congestion. .

If the number of the acknowledgment messages is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the base station device adjusts the random access parameter, obtains the adjusted random access parameter, and sends the adjusted random access parameter to the The user equipment.

If the number of the acknowledgment messages is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the excessive transmission of the random access preamble of the user equipment may have a negative impact on the channel transmission quality of the cell, and may be changed by adjusting the random access parameters. Into the strategy to improve communication.

Optionally, if the number of the acknowledgment messages is less than the first threshold, the base station device does not need to adjust the random access parameters.

Optionally, the random access parameters that can be adjusted include: an initial power constant of the random access preamble, a power climbing step of the random access preamble, and any two or three of the maximum number of times of the random access preamble.

Optionally, the adjusting the random access parameter may be: reducing the initial power constant and increasing the power climbing step; or decreasing the initial power constant and increasing the maximum number of climbs; or reducing the Determining the power step and increasing the maximum number of climbs; or lowering the initial power constant, increasing the power step and increasing the The maximum number of climbs.

Taking the initial power constant and the step of increasing the power as an example, by reducing the initial power constant of the preamble, the transmit power of the first random access preamble in the random access process can be reduced, thereby reducing the uplink power. The impact of the load; by increasing the lead power climbing step, the number of random access attempts by the user equipment can be reduced, and the access delay can be reduced. Under the premise that the maximum number of climbs is constant, the adjustment may reach the random access preamble. The maximum transmit power has no effect.

The base station device sends the adjusted random access parameter to the user equipment in the cell, and the user equipment may send the random access preamble to the base station device by using the adjusted random access parameter in the random access request initiated later.

Optionally, the base station device may send the user equipment in the cell by means of cell broadcast. Taking the WCDMA system as an example, the RNC may send the adjusted random access parameter to the Node B by means of a system message, for example, through a system information block (SIB5) including a common physical channel configuration parameter of the cell, and then The Node B is broadcast to the user equipment.

Optionally, an initial value of the random access parameter may be preset in the base station device. The initial value can be set according to the actual value of the network according to the value range specified by the protocol. For example, the initial range of initial power constants specified in the 3GPP protocol may be -35 db ~ -10 db, and the initial range of the initial value of the power ramping step is ldb ~ 8 db, and the initial value of the maximum number of climbs is optional. The range is from 1 to 64 times.

According to the method disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention, the base station device adjusts the random access parameter according to the recorded number of times of the acknowledgment message of the random access preamble sent by the user equipment in the cell, The number of times the acknowledgment message is recorded by the base station device indicates that the user equipment can still access the network in the current cell, and the channel condition of the network has not deteriorated. Therefore, according to the number of acknowledgment messages of the random access preamble, the number of acknowledgment messages of the random access preamble can be determined in advance. The user equipment sends a risk of congestion on the channel used for the random access preamble. If the risk of channel congestion occurs in the current cell, the random access parameter is adjusted. It is ensured that before the random access channel is congested, the user equipment can use the optimized random access parameter to send a random access preamble, which can prevent channel congestion and maintain the random access success rate.

Optionally, the method in the embodiment of the present invention is also applicable to a situation in which a channel has been congested, which affects a random access preamble transmission. In particular, the random access preamble transmission excessively increases channel congestion, and the random access parameter is adjusted. The pressure of the random access process on the data capacity of the random access channel can be reduced, thereby reducing or even eliminating channel congestion.

In another embodiment of the present invention, after the user equipment starts to use the adjusted random access parameter to transmit the random access preamble, the random access channel congestion in the cell changes accordingly. Therefore, optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, after step 105 is performed, steps 106-1013 may be further included:

106: The base station device continues to receive the random access preamble sent by the user equipment in the cell, and the adjusted random access parameter is used in the sending process of the random access preamble.

107: The base station device continues to send a new acknowledgement message to the user equipment.

108: The number of times the base station device records the new acknowledgement message and obtains a new acknowledgement message.

The number of times of the new confirmation message obtained by the recording is the same as the number of times of the confirmation message recorded in step 104, and the filtering process may be performed, and the processed new confirmation message may be The number of new confirmation messages obtained as records will not be described here.

109: Compare the number of the new acknowledgment message with the first threshold, if the number of the new acknowledgment message is still greater than or equal to the first threshold, go to step 1010; if the number of new acknowledgment messages is less than the first threshold, turn Proceed to step 1011.

1010: Send the previous adjustment result before the random access parameter adjustment process to the user equipment or continue to adjust the random access parameter.

If the system is in the channel congestion warning state and the random access parameters are adjusted in the previous adjustment process, the previous adjustment result can be sent to the user equipment in this adjustment process. It is also possible to continue to adjust the random access parameters to more effectively alleviate the channel congestion state.

1011: Compare the number of the new acknowledgement message with a second threshold, where the second threshold is smaller than the first threshold. The second threshold is used to determine whether the number of random access preambles sent by the user equipment is within a normal range.

The second threshold may be used to measure whether the channel congestion state has been cancelled due to the decrease of the random access preamble transmission or the base station processes the random access request normally, and no channel congestion occurs. If the number of the new acknowledgement message is less than The second threshold indicates that the channel is not congested before the current judgment or the random access preamble is transmitted by the user equipment using the adjusted random access parameter, and channel congestion has been eliminated.

In another embodiment of the present invention, the base station device may record to the base station The sum of the number of times the acknowledgment message is sent by all user equipments in the cell of the device. The base station device can simultaneously process the random access request sent by different user equipments in the cell. Therefore, the acknowledgment message of the random access preamble can be sent to multiple user equipments at the same time. The base station device compares the total number of times the acknowledgment message is recorded with the preset first threshold and the second threshold, learns the channel load condition, determines the channel congestion status, and then adjusts the random access parameter.

Since multiple user equipments in a cell can jointly use the same random access channel, considering the random access preamble transmission situation of multiple user equipments in the entire cell, the load of the random access channel can be more accurately learned, and the adjusted random The access parameters can be generally applied to various types of users in a cell, including cell edge users and cell center users.

In this embodiment, the base station device can monitor the uplink total received bandwidth (RTWP) of the cell, and the base station device can periodically monitor, or can monitor the RTWP based on event triggering.

When a large number of user equipments in the cell initiate random access to the base station, the uplink power load is increased, which affects the uplink data capacity and the uplink throughput rate. Since the random access process affects the uplink power load of the cell, the channel congestion decision may be used according to the current power load condition of the current cell to determine whether the random access parameter adjustment needs to be performed, if the uplink power load of the current cell is too high and channel congestion occurs. The pre-configured random access parameters are used by the user equipment to adjust the random access parameters to reduce the uplink power load. If the uplink power load of the current cell is at a lower level, the random access parameters need not be adjusted. The initial value initiates randomization to the base station Access to get a shorter access delay.

The uplink power load of the current cell can be known by monitoring the uplink RTWP of the cell. The uplink RTWP reflects the degree of network uplink interference and can be used to evaluate the network uplink load. In the scenario where the uplink load of the cell is too high caused by the random access process, by adjusting the random access parameters, the impact of the random access of the user on the uplink RTWP when the traffic is busy can be reduced, so that the uplink RTWP is in a balanced state. Considering the reduction of the system bandwidth consumption and the real-time performance and accuracy of the uplink power load monitored by the base station equipment, for example, the monitoring period of the uplink RTWP may be selected as Is to improve the power admission control effect of the base station equipment. The monitored uplink RTWP is stored inside the base station device and can be updated according to the monitoring period. The detection period in the embodiment of the present invention is not particularly limited.

Optionally, the monitoring of the uplink RTWP may be performed at any time before the channel congestion warning is initiated, and the base station device may acquire the current cell as long as the uplink RTWP needs to be used as the determining condition for adjusting the random access parameter. In the embodiment of the present invention, the uplink RTWP is not particularly limited.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the steps 201-203 may refer to steps 101-103 in the embodiment of FIG. 1, and details are not described herein.

204: The base station device compares the number of the acknowledgment messages with a first threshold. If the number of the acknowledgment messages is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the process proceeds to steps 205-207. If no, the process returns to step 201. If yes, go to step 206; if no, go back to step 201.

The preset threshold of the uplink RTWP may be determined by the base station device according to network statistics. According to the automatic determination, or according to actual needs, the empirical value or experimental value can be arbitrarily selected. Optionally, the uplink power load full load of the cell is counted as 100%, and the uplink power load ratio of the preemptive congestion and the adaptive random access parameter optimization algorithm is A% (A>50%), and the corresponding correspondence is calculated. The value of the RTWP is the preset threshold.

206: The base station device adjusts random access parameters.

For the method for adjusting the random access parameters, reference may be made to step 105 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, which is not described herein.

207: The base station device sends the adjusted random access parameter to the user equipment, and the user equipment may send the random access preamble to the base station device by using the adjusted random access parameter.

Risk, if the risk of channel congestion occurs in the current cell, adjust the random access parameters. It is ensured that before the random access channel is congested, the user equipment can use the optimized random access parameters to send the random access preamble, which can prevent channel congestion and maintain the random access success rate.
