Description

小区切换方法、 用户设备及基站
技术领域
本发明实施例涉及通信技术, 尤其涉及一种小区切换方法、 用户设备及 基站。 背景技术
多输入多输出 (Multiple Input Multiple Output, 简称 MIMO) 的天线技术 已经被广泛地应用在无线通信系统中来提高系统容量和保证小区的覆盖。 例 如 LTE系统的下行采用了基于多天线的发送分集,开环 /闭环的空分复用和基 于解调参考信号( Demodulation Reference Signal, 简称 DM-RS )的多流传输。 目前,基于 DM-RS的多流传输多采用二维的波束赋形, 即发送天线都是水平 放置, 只能产生水平方向的波束。 为提高资源的利用率及小区覆盖面积, 提 高多天线系统的性能, LTE Rel-12标准中引入二维天线的配置, 即天线同时 放在水平和垂直方向上, 从而可以同时产生水平和垂直方向上的波束赋形, 即三维波束赋形。
(User Equipment, 简称 UE) 当前保持连接通信的小区为服务小区, 该 UE从该服务小区可能切换到的小区称为目标小区, 该 UE具有至少一个目标 小区。 UE进行小区切换之前, 需测量该些目标小区的信道质量, 根据测量结 果进行小区的切换。 该 UE 根据该些目标小区各自对应的一个参考信号 (Reference Signal, 简称 RS)分别进行信道质量的测量。 其中, 一个参考信号 对应一个下倾角。
现有技术中, 根据该参考信号分别对 UE 的目标小区进行信道质量的测 量时, 实际仅针对该 UE特定的参考信号及其对应的一个下倾角进行测量, 而未考虑目标小区的公共信道的覆盖范围。 因此可能出现基于该参考信号的 信道质量测量结果, UE切换到某个目标小区后使得该目标小区的公共信道却 不能覆盖到该 UE。

为使本发明实施例的目的、 技术方案和优点更加清楚, 下面将结合本发 明实施例中的附图, 对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、 完整地描述, 显然, 所描述的实施例是本发明一部分实施例, 而不是全部的实施例。 基于 本发明中的实施例, 本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获 得的 实施例, 都属于本发明保护的范围。
Figure imgf000027_0001
图 1为本发明实施例一所提供的小区切换方法的流程图。 本实施例的方 法适用于 UE进行小区切换的情况。 对于待进行小区切换的 UE来说, 该 UE 具有一个服务小区基站, 具有至少一个目标小区基站。 该目标小区基站可以 为 X2口广播的或网络配置的邻区小区列表中的基站。该方法由 UE执行。如 图 1所示, 该本实施例的方法具体包括如下歩骤:
歩骤 101、 接收至少一个目标小区基站发送的参考信号资源。
其中, 该参考信号资源包括: 该至少一个目标小区对应的参考信号资源; 每个目标小区对应至少两套参考信号资源, 每套参考信号资源对应一个预编 码信息。
每个目标小区的每套参考信号资源可以为对应不同的预编码信息的不同 类型的参考信号资源, 还可以是对应不同的预编码信息的相同类型的参考信 号资源。 每套参考信号资源对应一个预编码信息, 而一个预编码信息对应一 定的天线波束覆盖下倾角。 该一个预编码信息具体可以为一个预编码矩阵。 在本发明实施例中, 该服务小区基站和目标小区基站的发射天线可以为二维 天线。 在具有二维天线的系统中, 每个预编码信息对应该二维天线的每列的 天线阵子的一套加权因子。 该服务小区基站可以是宏站或微站。 若服务小区基站为宏站, 对应的, 该 UE 的目标小区基站可以为微站, 那么, 该小区切换方法实际为将该 UE 从该宏站服务的宏小区切换至该微站服务的微小区。
歩骤 102、 根据该参考信号资源对该至少一个目标小区的信道质量进行 测量, 获得测量结果及该测量结果对应的参考信号资源的标识。
该 UE具有至少一个目标小区, 每个目标小区具有至少两套参考信号资 源, 一套参考信号资源对应一个预编码信息, 而一个预编码信息又对应一定 的波束下倾角。 该 UE根据该参考信号资源对该至少一个目标小区的信道质 量进行测量, 分别根据每个目标小区的参考信号资源对该每个目标小区的公 共信道覆盖范围中至少两个预编码信息对应的下倾角的覆盖范围, 进行信道 歩骤 103、 将该测量结果及该测量结果对应的参考信号资源的标识发送 给该服务小区基站, 以使该服务小区基站根据该测量结果确定该 UE是否进 行小区切换, 若是, 该服务小区基站向该至少一个目标小区基站发送切换请 求消息, 并根据该至少一个目标小区基站返回的切换请求响应消息对该 UE 进行小区切换。
那么, 该测量结果中, 一个目标小区对应至少两套的测量结果。 该测量 结果对应的参考信号资源的标识表示获得该测量结果所采用的参考信号资源 的标识, 该参考信号资源的标识可以是该参考信号资源在一个目标小区对应 的至少两套参考信号资源中的标识。 该标识与预编码信息所使用的加权因子 对应, 还可以与预编码信息对应。 该标识, 具体可以通过参考信号资源的编 号表不。
本实施例的方案, UE根据至少一个目标小区的对应不同预编码信息的多 套参考信号资源分别对该至少一个目标小区的信道质量进行测量, 并将该测 量结果及该测量结果对应的参考信号资源的标识发送至服务小区基站, 该服 务小区基站根据该测量结果及该测量结果对应的参考信号资源的标识确定该 UE是否进行切换及该 UE切换至目标小区的预编码信息。 由于每套参考信号 资源对应一个预编码信息, 而一个预编码信息对应一定的波束下倾角, 每个 目标小区对应至少两套参考信号资源, 因而采用本实施例方案根据该参考信 号资源对 UE进行小区切换,可使得该 UE所切换后的波束在该目标小区的公 共信道的覆盖波束内, 从而可提高该 UE小区切换后该目标小区的公共信道 覆盖范围。
实施例二
本实施例还提供一种小区切换方法。 图 2为本发明实施例二提供的小区 切换方法的流程图。 如图 2所示, 该方法, 在上述实施例方案中歩骤 101中 接收至少一个目标小区基站发送的参考信号资源之前, 还包括:
歩骤 201、 接收该服务小区基站发送的该每个目标小区的参考信号资源 个数、 该每套参考信号资源所对应的配置信息。
该每套参考信号资源所对应一个配置信息, 该配置信息包括: 天线端口 的数量、 天线端口的端口号、 导频序列及时频资源位置中至少一个。
具体地, 该天线端口指用于传输的逻辑端口, 与物理天线不存在定义上 的一一对应关系。 该天线端口由用于该天线的参考信号资源来定义。 也就是 说, 该参考信号资源是某一逻辑端口的名字。 需要说明的是, 对于不同的协 议版本, 可能具有不同类型的参考信号资源, 而该不同的参考信号资源对应 不同的天线端口。 举例来说: 小区特定参考信号 (Cell-specific Reference Signal, 简称 CRS ) 资源在天线端口 {0}、 {0,1 }或 {0,1,2,3 }上传输; 用户特定 的参考信号 (UE-specific Reference Signal, 简称 UE-RS ) 至少包括解调参考 信号 (Demodulation Reference Signal, 简称 DMRS ) 和 CSI-RS (Channel State Information Reference Signal, 简称 CSI-RS)两种, 其中 DMRS资源在天线端口 {5}、 {7 }、 { 8}或 {7,8,...,v+6}上传输, 其中 v为层数, 最大为 8 ; 信道状态信息 参考信号 (Channel State Information Reference Signal, 简称 CSI-RS)资源在天线 端口 { 15}、 { 15, 16}、 { 15,16,17, 18}或 { 15,16,17,18, 19,20,21,22}上传输。
该 UE接收该每套参考信号资源所对应的配置信息, 分别根据该每套参 考信号资源所对应的配置信息接收该参考信号资源, 以根据该不同类型的参 考信号资源进行小区信道质量的测量。
进一歩地, 如上所述的歩骤 101 中接收至少一个目标小区基站发送的参 考信号资源, 具体包括:
歩骤 202、 接收该至少一个目标小区基站采用时分方式发送的该至少两 套参考信号资源。
可选地, 每个无线子帧发送一套参考信号资源。 当参考信号资源套数为 二时, 即采用第一套参考信号资源和第二套参考信号资源在每相邻的两个子 帧交替发送的方式。 优选的, 上述方案中该每套参考信号资源对应一个测量 配置; 该测量配置包括: 测量激活的起始系统帧号 (System Frame Number, 简称 SFN) 、 子帧号、 测量周期、 测量间隔等。
具体地, 由于每套参考信号资源是按无线子帧进行发送的。 此处每套参 考信号资源所对应的测量配置, 实际为该 UE对该每套参考信号资源进行测 量所需的配置信息。 其中, 该测量激活的起始 SFN可以是该 UE在接收到该 每套参考信号资源之后, 开始进行测量的 SFN, 也就是无线帧号。 该子帧号 为开始进行测量时对应的该 SFN的子帧号, 即该 UE开始进行测量的具体子 帧号。
同一目标小区的不同参考信号资源具有不同的测量配置。 该 UE根据每 套参考信号资源对应的配置参数分别进行信道质量测量, 可保证每个信道质 量的测量均基于相同的参考信号资源号,从而能确保每个测量结果的准确性。 需要说明的是, 该测量配置可预先存储在该 UE侧, 也可以是由该服务小区 基站下发配置至该 UE。
上述方案中歩骤 102根据该参考信号资源对该至少一个目标小区的信道 质量进行测量, 具体包括:
歩骤 203、 根据该参考信号资源对应的测量配置对该至少一个目标小区 的信道质量进行测量。
进一歩地, 在如上所述方案中歩骤 103将获得的测量结果及该测量结果 对应的参考信号资源的标识发送给该服务小区基站之前, 还包括:
歩骤 204、 对该测量结果进行时域滤波, 以对该测量结果进行更新。 具体地, 该 UE对该测量结果进行时域滤波, 可使得该测量结果更稳定, 从而对该测量结果进行更新。
该时域滤波实际为时域滑动平均滤波。 对该每套参考信号资源的测量结 果进行时域滤波, 例如可以是针对每套参考信号资源根据其对应的测量配置 中的测量时序参数, 采用如下所述公式(1 )进行层 3 (Layer 3 , 简称 L3 )滤 波和测量结果的更新。
Fn ^ (l - ai) - Fn_1 + a Mn ( 1 )
在该公式(1 ) 中, F„表示本次滤波更新后的测量结果, 表示上一次滤 波后的测量结果, M„表示本次的瞬时测量结果, Ω,表示本次滤波的滤波因子。 需要说明的是, 在本实施例中, 还可预先设置一个测量时间窗, 在该测 量时间窗内, UE根据该至少一个目标小区的至少两套参考信号资源进行信道 质量测量, 而在该测量时间窗外, UE根据该至少一个目标小区切换后更新的 预编码信息对应的参考信号资源进行信道质量测量。
本实施例方案在上述方案的基础上, 由于每套参考信号资源对应一个配 置信息, 而每个配置对应一个下倾角。 每套参考信号资源进行单独的测量配 置和时域滤波, 基于上述, 本实施例能使得所有 UE通过选择最优或较优的 下倾角来完成小区覆盖范围的灵活调整和伸缩。
实施例三
本实施例还提供一种小区切换方法。 图 3为本发明实施例三所提供的小 区切换方法的流程图。 在上述实施例方案中, 该方法还包括:
歩骤 301、 接收该服务小区基站发送的该服务小区对应的参考信号资源。 该服务小区对应的参考信号资源包括: 至少两套参考信号资源, 每套参 考信号资源对应一个预编码信息。
需要说明的是, 该歩骤 301与歩骤 101并无绝对的时序关系, 可以相同 执行, 也可先后执行均可。
该方法在上述方案歩骤 103中将获得的测量结果发送给该服务小区基站 之前, 还包括:
根据该服务小区对应的参考信号资源对该服务小区的信道质量进行测 量, 获得该服务小区的测量结果。
优选的, 上述测量结果为信道质量指示 (Channel quality indicator, 简称
CQI)信息、参考信号接收功率(Reference Signal Receiving Power,简称 RSRP) 信息、 参考信号接收质量 (Reference Signal Receiving Quality, 简称 RSRQ) 信息及接收信号强度指示 (Received Signal Strength Indication, 简称 RSSI) 信息中至少一个。
具体地, 该测量结果包括: 该至少一个目标小区的测量结果及该服务小 区的测量结果, 也就是说, 该至少一个目标小区的测量结果及该服务小区的 测量结果均可以为 CQI信息、 RSRP信息、 RSRQ信息及 RSSI信息中至少一 个。 进一歩地, 上述方案中该每个目标小区及该服务小区对应的参考信号资 源具体包括: 至少一套小区特定参考信号资源。
具体地, 该小区特定参考信号资源可以为 CRS资源, 还可以为其他类型 的小区特定的参考信号资源。
如图 3所示, 上述歩骤 102中根据该参考信号资源对该至少一个目标小 区的信道质量进行测量, 具体包括:
歩骤 302、 分别根据该每个目标小区对应的该至少一套小区特定参考信 号资源对该至少一个目标小区的信道质量进行测量, 获得该至少一个目标小 区的第一测量结果。
上述根据该服务小区对应的参考信号资源对该服务小区的信道质量进行 测量, 具体包括:
歩骤 303、 根据该服务小区对应的该至少一套小区特定参考信号资源对 该服务小区的信道质量进行测量, 获得该服务小区的第一测量结果。
该至少一个目标小区的测量结果包括: 该至少一个目标小区的第一测量 结果; 该服务小区的测量结果包括: 该服务小区的第一测量结果。
根据对该小区特定参考信号的测量获得的测量结果对该 UE进行小区切 换, 实际在保证各目标小区公共信道覆盖的基础上, 为该 UE选择一个目标 小区, 从而更好地保证切换后目标小区的公共信道覆盖。
本实施例还提供一种小区切换方法。 图 4为本发明实施例三所提供的另 一小区切换方法的流程图。 可选的, 如上所述的该每个目标小区及该服务小 区对应的参考信号资源包括: 至少一套用户特定参考信号资源。
该用户特定参考信号资源例如可以为 CSI-RS资源,可以为 UE-RS资源, 还可以为任意其他用户特定的参考信号资源。 同一小区下的不同 UE具有不 同的参考信号资源。
如图 4所示, 上述歩骤 102根据该参考信号资源对该至少一个目标小区 的信道质量进行测量, 包括:
歩骤 401、 分别根据该每个目标小区对应的该至少一套用户特定参考信 号资源对该至少一个目标小区的信道质量进行测量, 获得该至少一个目标小 区的第二测量结果。
上述根据该服务小区对应的参考信号资源对该服务小区的信道质量进行 测量, 包括:
歩骤 402、 根据该服务小区对应的至少一套用户特定参考信号资源对该 服务小区的信道质量进行测量, 获得该服务小区的第二测量结果。
该至少一个目标小区的测量结果包括: 该至少一个目标小区的第二测量 结果; 该服务小区的测量结果包括: 该服务小区的第二测量结果。 由于不同 UE 具有不同的参考信号, 因而根据该用户特定参考信号进行信道质量的测 量, 可获得该 UE对应的具有最优信道质量的目标小区, 而由于不同的参考 信号资源分别对应一个预编码信息, 可根据该不同的预编码信息为该 UE选 择最优的小区下倾角波束。
本实施例方案, 通过对小区特定参考信号进行小区信道质量的测量, 可 更好地保证该 UE切换后目标小区的公共信道覆盖, 还通过对用户特定参考 信号资源的测量, 为该 UE选择切换后的最优下倾角波束。
实施例四

如图 5所示, 上述歩骤 102根据该参考信号资源对该至少一个目标小区 的信道质量进行测量, 还包括:
歩骤 501、 分别根据该每个目标小区对应的该至少一套用户特定参考信 号资源对该至少一个目标小区的信道质量进行测量, 获得该至少一个目标小 区的第二测量结果。
上述根据该服务小区对应的参考信号资源对该服务小区的信道质量进行 测量, 还包括:
歩骤 502、 根据该服务小区对应的该至少一套用户特定参考信号资源对 该服务小区的信道质量进行测量, 获得该服务小区的第二测量结果。
该至少一个目标小区的测量结果包括: 该至少一个目标小区的第一测量 结果及第二测量结果; 该服务小区的测量结果包括: 该服务小区的第一测量 结果及第二测量结果。
在上述实施例方案的基础上, 上述方案中歩骤 103将获得的测量结果及 该测量结果对应的参考信号资源的标识发送给该服务小区基站, 具体包括: 根据预设的事件触发条件将该测量结果发送给该服务小区基站。
在本实施例中, 根据预设的事件触发条件进行测量结果的发送, 即根据 该预设事件的触发条件是否满足来触发和结束测量结果的周期发送。
如上所述的该预设事件触发条件包括: 同系统事件触发条件或异系统事 件触发条件。
具体地, 该同系统指的是该服务小区基站与该目标小区基站具有相同类 型的通信系统。
在本实施例方案中, 该同系统的事件触发条件包括以下五个事件触发条 件中任一一种:
其中, 该第一事件触发条件, 为该服务小区的第一测量结果大于等于第 一预设门限, 且该服务小区的第二测量结果大于等于第二预设门限。
第二事件触发条件,为该服务小区的第一测量结果小于该第一预设门限, 或该服务小区的第二测量结果小于该第二预设门限。
第三事件触发条件, 为该至少一个目标小区的第一测量结果大于等于该 服务小区的第一测量结果, 且大于等于该第一预设门限; 该服务小区的第二 测量结果大于等于该第二预设门限。
第四事件触发条件, 为该至少一个目标小区的第一测量结果大于等于该 第一预设门限, 且该至少一个目标小区的第二测量结果大于等于该第二预设 门限。
第五事件触发条件, 为所述至少一个目标小区的第一测量结果大于等于 该第一预设门限, 且该至少一个目标小区的第二测量结果大于等于该第二预 设门限; 该服务小区的第一测量结果小于第三预设门限, 或该服务小区的第 二测量结果小于第四预设门限。
具体地, 该第一事件触发条件包括接入条件和离开条件。 该服务小区的 第一测量结果可表示为 M 该第二测量结果表示为 M , 该第一预设门限表 示为 Thr气 该第二预设门限表示为7 ""e
因此, 该第一事件触发条件的进入条件可通过如下公式 (2) 表示: Msl≥ Thresh^ and Ms2≥ Thresh2 . 该第一事件触发条件的离开条件可通过如下公式 (3 ) 表示:
Msl < Thresh^ or Ms2 < Thresh2 在本实施例中, 该第一事件触发条件还可以通过服务小区的第一测量结 果及第二测量结果与预设的小区重选滞后参数的差值与该第一预设门限及第 二预设门限相比较。 该小区重选滞后 (Hysteresis ) 参数, 表示为 H^s
对应的, 上述公式 (2) 还可表示为如下公式 (4 ) :
Msl Hys≥ Thresh^ and Ms2 Hys≥ Thresh2 ( 4 ) . 上述公式 (3 ) 可表示为如下公式 (5 ) :
Msl Hys < Thresh^ or Ms2 Hys < Thresh2 (5 ) 需要说明的是, 在本实施例中, 与该第一测量结果相比较的小区重选滞 后参数, 还可以与该第二测量结果比较的小区重选滞后参数不同。 若不同, 贝 IJ , 分别可表示为 ^及 ^。
在本实施例中, 该第一事件触发条件至该第五事件触发条件是按照事件 优先级顺序进行排列的事件条件。 前一级的事件触发条件的离开条件即为后 续事件触发条件的接入条件。 具体来说, 若该 UE根据测量获得的测量结果, 确定对应该第一事件触发条件, 则根据该第一事件触发条件采用事件触发发 送方式将该测量结果周期性发送至该服务小区基站。 若该测量结果不对应该 第一事件触发条件, 则继续判定是否属于第二事件触发条件。
优选的, 上述异系统事件触发条件包括以下任一一种:
第六事件触发条件, 为该至少一个目标小区的第一测量结果大于等于该 服务小区的第一测量结果, 且大于等于该第一预设门限, 该服务小区的第二 测量结果大于等于该第二预设门限;
第七事件触发条件, 为该至少一个目标小区的第一测量结果大于等于该 第一预设门限, 该服务小区的第二测量结果大于等于该第二预设门限。
本实施例方案还通过具体的该测量结果发送方式对上述实施例进行具体 限定, 可更好地保证该 UE进行小区切换。
需要说明的是, 本实施例方案中该 UE还可以直接按照预设周期进行周 期发送。
实施例五
本发明实施例还提供一种小区切换方法。 图 6为本发明实施例五所提供 的小区切换方法的流程图。 该方法由服务小区基站执行。 该服务小区基站可 以是宏站或微站。 若该服务小区为宏站, 对应的, 该 UE的目标小区基站可 以为微站, 那么, 该小区切换方法实际为将该 UE从该宏站服务的宏小区切 换至该微站服务的微小区。 如图 6所示, 该本实施例的方法具体包括如下歩 骤:
歩骤 601、接收 UE发送的测量结果及该测量结果对应的参考信号资源的 标识。
其中, 该测量结果包括: 该 UE根据至少一个目标小区基站发送的参考 信号资源对该至少一个目标小区的信道质量进行测量的结果。 该参考信号资 源包括: 该至少一个目标小区对应的参考信号资源, 每个目标小区对应至少 两套参考信号资源, 每套参考信号资源对应一个预编码信息。
具体地, 该 UE具有至少一个目标小区, 一套参考信号资源对应一个预 编码信息, 每个目标小区配置至少两套参考信号资源, 以使该 UE根据对应 的参考信号资源对每个目标小区的公共信道覆盖范围中至少两个下倾角对应 的覆盖范围, 进行信道质量测量。 每个目标小区的参考信号资源可以是相同 类型的参考信号上作用不同的加权因子, 从对应不同的预编码信息, 也可以 是不同类型的参考信号上作用不同的加权因子,从而对应不同的预编码信息。
在本发明实施例中, 该服务小区基站和每个目标小区基站的发射天线可 以为二维天线。 在该具有二维天线的系统中, 每个预编码信息对应该二维天 线每列天线阵子的一套加权因子。
UE 根据该至少一个目标小区对应的参考信号资源对该至少一个目标小 区的信道质量进行测量实际是, 分别根据每个目标小区对应的至少两套参考 信号资源对该每个目标小区的信道质量进行测量。 那么, 该测量结果中, 一 个目标小区对应至少两套的测量结果。 该测量结果对应的参考信号资源的标 识表示获得该测量结果所采用的参考信号资源的标识, 该参考信号资源的标 识可以是该参考信号资源在一个目标小区对应的至少两套参考信号资源中的 标识。 该标识与所使用的不同加权因子对应, 还可以与下预编码信息对应。
歩骤 602、 根据该测量结果确定该 UE是否进行小区切换, 若是, 向该至 少一个目标小区基站发送切换请求消息。
根据该测量结果确定该 UE可以进行小区切换, 可以是根据该测量结果 中该 UE的至少一个目标小区对应的信道质量的值分别与预设门限值作比较, 若该测量结果中存在信道质量大于或等于该预设门限的目标小区, 则该 UE 可进行小区切换。 该预设门限值例如可以是根据不同场景中 UE进行正常通 信时, 该 UE所在小区信道质量的平均值进行配置。
根据该测量结果确定该 UE进行小区切换, 还可以是根据该测量结果中 该 UE的至少一个目标小区对应的信道质量与该 UE当前服务的小区的信道质 量进行比较, 若该测量结果中存在信道质量大于或等于该 UE当前服务的小 区的信道质量, 则该 UE可进行小区切换。
该服务小区基站向每个目标小区基站所发送的切换请求消息包括:该 UE 测量所获得的该每个目标小区对应的信道质量、请求切换的 UE,及切换后所 采用的参考信号资源的标识或预编码信息中的至少一个。
歩骤 603、 根据该至少一个目标小区基站返回的切换请求响应消息对该
UE进行小区切换。
该至少一个目标小区实际为接收到服务小区基站所发送的切换请求消息 之后, 每个目标小区基站各自根据自身的信道质量及该切换请求消息中该目 标小区所对应的该 UE所测量的信道质量, 确定该目标小区是否进行该 UE 的小区切换。 对该 UE进行小区切换的目标小区基站向该服务小区基站返回 切换请求响应消息, 该切换请求响应消息指示是否进行小区切换及切换后的 参考信号资源的标识。 该服务小区基站根据接收到的该切换响应消息, 将该 UE切换至该目标小区,而该目标小区发送对应标识的参考信号资源给该 UE。
