Description

一种测量方法、设备及系统 技术领域
本申请涉及通信领域,尤其涉及一种测量方法、设备及系统。
背景技术
随着通信技术的快速发展,载波聚合(Carrier Aggregation,CA)技术被引入标准,将多个载波聚合以支持更大的传输带宽,使得用户设备(User Equipment,UE)在至少两个载波进行上行传输,每个载波对应一个小区,包括主小区(Primary Cell,Pcell)和辅小区(Secondary Cell,SCell)。目前,CA聚合的PCell是UE初始接入时的小区,负责与UE之间的无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)通信,以及提供安全输入,在连接建立时确定。在下行(down link,DL),对应PCell的载波是DL主载波(down link Primary Component Carrier,DL PCC),在上行(up link,UL)对应PCell的载波是UL主载波(uplink Primary Component Carrier,UL PCC)。SCell是在RRC连接初始安全激活流程(initial security activation procedure)之后,通过RRC连接重配置消息添加,用于提供额外的无线资源,在下行,对应SCell的载波是DL辅载波(down link Secondary Component Carrier,DL SCC),在上行对应SCell的载波是UL辅载波(uplink Secondary Component Carrier,UL SCC)。
当前,为UE添加SCell的过程如图1所示,基站与UE间先建立RRC连接之后,在UE进入到RRC连接态以后,PCell对UE进行测量配置,包括测量对象以及上报测量报告的条件;UE在收到测量配置后,执行针对SCell的测量,UE在测量完成之后,若测量值满足上报测量报告的条件,UE向基站上报测量报告;PCell收到测量报告后,执行SCell的添加、激活过程。
从上述添加SCell的过程可知,需要两次配置以及一次测量的时间,而通常SCell的添加属于异频测量耗时很长,因此,从测量配置到发送测量报告占用过长的RRC连接态时间,降低了通信系统数据传输的效率。随着技术发展,当前CA支持的载波个数已增加至32个,UE需要增加的辅小区更多,进一步增加了占用的RRC连接态时长,更进一步降低了通信系统的数据传输效率。

待测对象的物理层小区ID、待测对象的全球小区ID是从物理层、全球角度为待 测对象分配的唯一的ID,通过待测对象的物理层小区ID、待测对象的全球小区ID可以唯一确定出待测对象。
而待测对象的物理层小区ID的转换ID、待测对象的全球小区ID的转换ID,是将待测对象的物理层小区ID、待测对象的全球小区ID通过映射关系转换后的ID,通过待测对象的物理层小区ID的转换ID、待测对象的全球小区ID的转换ID查找映射关系,即可得到待测对象的物理层小区ID、待测对象的全球小区ID,这样就可以唯一确定出待测对象。
需要说明的是,转换ID可以有不同的名称,例如报告ID或者索引ID等,凡是通过映射关系与可以唯一确定待测对象的ID对应的ID,都是本申请所称的转换ID。
示例性的,如表1所示,示例了待测对象的物理层小区ID与待测对象的物理层小区ID的转换ID的映射关系。如表1所示,假设一个待测对象的物理层小区ID的转换ID为ID6,根据表1示意的映射关系,则可以确定该待测对象的物理层小区ID为ID3,通过ID3则可以唯一确定这个待测对象。

上述描述的七种配置参数只是通过举例的形式进行可行方案的描述,在实际应用中,配置信息可以包括上述七种配置参数中的至少一种,或者,测量配置参数还可以包括其他配置参数,本申请实施例在此不再一一示出。
还需要说明的是,S501中网络设备发送配置信息,可以是广播形式发送,即没有目的UE,也可以是向UE发送,图5中仅示意了S501中向UE发送的方式,并不是对此的具体限定。
进一步可选的,在S501中网络设备发送配置信息,可以是主动进行,也可以是基于UE的请求,本申请实施例对于S501的执行前提条件不进行具体限定。
可选的,当配置信息用于UE在RRC IDLE态执行测量对象的测量时,若S501中网络设备发送配置信息是基于UE的请求,如图6所示,在S501之前,本申请实施例提供的测量方法还可以包括S501a和S501b。
S501a、UE向网络设备发送期望在IDLE态测量的请求指示。
S501b、网络设备接收UE发送的期望在IDLE态测量的请求指示。
例如,UE可以在能力支持的时候,为了降低在RRC连接态的时延,UE选择在RRC IDLE态执行测量,此时,UE向驻留的服务对象发送请求指示,服务对象的网络设备则执行S501。
具体的,在S501中,网络设备发送配置信息的具体实现方式可以包括但不限于下述两种实现方式:
实现方式1、网络设备发送包括配置信息的系统广播消息。
在实现方式1中,网络设备通过广播的方式发送配置信息,RRC IDLE态的UE则接收到配置信息。
实现方式2、网络设备发送包括配置信息的RRC连接释放消息。
在实现方式2中,网络设备通过RRC连接释放消息发送配置信息,RRC连接态的UE则接收到配置信息。
S502、UE接收网络设备发送的配置信息。
需要说明的是,S502中UE接收的配置信息,即S501中网络设备发送的配置信息,对于配置信息已经在S501中进行了详细描述,此处不再进行赘述。

实现方式B、UE接收网络设备发送的包括配置信息的RRC连接释放消息。
S503、UE根据配置信息,在RRC IDLE态对至少一个待测对象进行测量,得到 至少一个待测对象的测量结果。
可选的,在S503中UE执行待测对象的测量时,测量的至少一个测量对象,可以由配置信息通过包括的至少一个测量对象的ID信息指示,也可以由UE自己确定。例如,UE可以确定至少一个测量对象为预设时间段内为自身服务过的测量对象。或者,UE可以确定至少一个测量对象为当前为正在自身服务的测量对象。本申请实施例对于至少一个测量对象的确定方式不进行具体限定。本申请实施例对于确定至少一个测量对象的过程以及确定的至少一个测量对象的内容也不进行具体限定。
示例性的,当待测对象为待测小区时,待测小区可以为与UE的服务小区共站的邻小区,或者,待测小区也可以是预设时长内为UE服务过的小区,或者其他。
需要说明的是,S503中UE根据配置参数执行待测对象的测量,该配置参数可以包括于S502中接收的配置信息,或者,也可以预先定义并存储于UE中,本申请实施例对此不进行具体限定。对于配置参数的具体内容,已经在S501中进行了详细描述,此处不再进行赘述。
可选的,S503具体可以实现为:UE根据配置信息,在RRC IDLE态对至少一个待测对象的测量参数进行测量。待测对象的测量结果则为测量参数的测量值。测量参数作为一种配置参数,可以包括于S502中接收的配置信息,或者,也可以预先定义并存储于UE。
示例性的,测量参数可以为RSRP或RSRQ或RSSI或SINR,测量结果则为具体测量的RSRP或RSRQ或RSSI或SINR的值。
可选的,在S503中,根据配置信息的功能不同,S503的实现方式也不同,具体可以包括下述两种情况:
情况1、配置信息用于指示UE在RRC IDLE态执行待测对象测量。
在情况1中,S503具体实现为:UE根据配置信息,在RRC IDLE态对至少一个待测对象进行测量。
或者,
情况2、配置信息不指示所述UE在RRC IDLE态执行待测对象测量,由网络设备的通知或者预先配置的规则指示UE在RRC IDLE态执行待测对象测量。
在情况2中,UE根据网络设备的通知或者预先配置的规则,并根据配置信息,在RRC IDLE态对至少一个待测对象进行测量;其中,网络设备的通知或者预先配置的规则用于指示UE在RRC IDLE态执行待测对象测量。
其中,网络设备的通知可以为专用于指示UE在RRC IDLE态执行待测对象测量的通知,对于该通知的发送时刻以及内容本申请实施例不进行具体限定。
其中,预先配置的规则可以是UE执行的协议,规定UE在接收到配置信息时,在RRC IDLE态执行待测对象测量。当然,预先配置的规则也可以是其他形式的配置规则,例如,UE的厂家定义的由UE执行的规则。本申请实施例对于预先配置的规则的内容及形式均不进行具体限定。
可选的,UE在S503中执行在RRC IDLE态对至少一个待测对象进行测量,可以是不考虑UE的服务对象的服务质量等因素,在S502后直接执行S503。
可选的,UE在S503中执行在RRC IDLE态对至少一个待测对象进行测量,可以 是在S502后,基于条件1执行S503。其中,条件1可以是执行测量的UE特征。执行测量的UE特征可以是UE自身的性能特征,也可以是UE需要建立的承载信息,本申请对此不进行具体限定。
示例性的,条件1可以是具备执行测量的UE特征。比如,UE是否支持载波聚合,如果UE不能支持载波聚合,则UE不执行S503中的测量。
或者,条件1可以是UE需要建立的承载信息指示UE将要发起的业务是大流量的。比如,UE需要建立的承载为视频业务,即UE需要的承载需要较大的吞吐量以保证业务需求,UE将执行S503中的该测量。
进一步的,当UE在S503中执行在RRC IDLE态对至少一个待测对象进行测量,可以是在S502后,基于条件1执行S503时,如图6所示,在S503之前,本申请实施例提供的测量方法还可以包括S503a。
S503a、UE判断自身是否具备执行测量的UE特征。
其中,执行测量的UE特征可以为预先设定的规则,也可以是配置信息中包含,本申请实施例对此不进行具体限定。对于执行测量的UE特征的内容,已经在S501中进行了详细描述,此处不再进行赘述。
可选的,若S503a中判断UE具备执行测量的UE特征,则执行S503;若在S503a中判断UE不具备执行测量的UE特征,则丢弃接收的配置信息。
需要说明的是,根据实际需求,若在S503a中判断UE不具备执行测量的UE特征,还可以进行其他操作,此处不进行具体限定。
示例性的,假设执行测量的UE特征是UE为视频手机,当一个不具有视频功能的手机在S502中接收到配置信息,该手机执行S503a判断自身不是视频手机,则不进行待测对象的测量。
需要说明的是,S503中UE对待测对象的测量过程,与现有的测量过程相同,本申请实施例对于S503中UE对待测对象的测量过程不进行赘述。凡是在RRC IDLE态对待测对象进行测量,均属于本申请方案的保护范围。
通过本申请提供的测量方案,UE在RRC IDLE态进行测量,避免了测量过程占用RRC连接态,提高了RRC连接态传输数据的效率,进而提高了通信系统的数据传输效率。
进一步的,在步骤S503的测量之后,对于测量结果可以有多种应用,例如可以发送测量报告,或者,确定服务质量等。可选的,可以在S503执行完成后,直接进行测量结果的应用;当然,也可以给测量结果的应用设定执行条件,在S503后当满足执行条件时,再进行测量结果的应用。其中,执行条件可以为UE的状态或者网络设备的状态或者网络的状态,或者其他,本申请实施例对于执行条件的具体内容不进行限定。
示例性的,当测量结果的应用为向网络设备发送测量报告,该应用的执行条件可以设定为UE进入RRC连接建立过程或者进入RRC连接态。当然,对于不同的测量结果的应用,可以预设不同的执行条件,此处不再一一赘述。
一种可能的实现方式中,若测量结果的应用设定了执行条件,在S503后则先判断是否满足执行条件,若已满足执行条件,则进行测量结果的应用;若不满足执行条件,则重新执行S503的过程:UE根据配置信息,在RRC IDLE态对至少一个待测对象进 行测量,得到至少一个待测对象的测量结果。其中,在多次执行S503的过程中,对于同一个待测对象,记录最新一次的测量结果,以保证测量结果的实时性。
进一步可选的,测量结果的一种可行的应用为UE向网络设备发送测量报告,以对S501中网络设备发送的配置信息反馈响应。因此,如图6所示,在S503之后,本申请实施例提供的测量方法还可以包括S504和S505。
S504、UE向网络设备发送测量报告。
其中,测量报告包括至少一个待测对象中部分或全部待测对象的报告内容。一个待测对象的报告内容可以包括该待测对象的ID信息,或者,该待测对象的ID信息和测量结果。
需要说明的是,对于待测对象的ID信息,已经在S501中进行了详细描述,此处不再进行赘述。
具体的,在S504中,UE需得到测量报告,再向网络设备发送测量报告。若S503中的测量为首次测量,则根据测量报告的内容,则根据S503中测量得到的至少一个待测对象的测量报告生成测量报告;若S503中的测量不是首次测量,则根据测量报告的内容,根据S503中测量得到的最新的至少一个待测对象的测量报告更新已有的测量报告。
其中,更新已有的测量报告,可以包括:向测量报告中添加内容、或者,将测量报告中的部分内容删除,或者,将测量报告中部分内容替换。保存更新后的测量报告的内容是根据最新一次测量的测量结果得到。
可选的,测量报告中的内容可以根据实际需求配置,具体可以包括但不限于下述两种实现方式。
第一种实现方式:测量报告包括至少一个待测对象中,测量结果满足预设条件的待测对象的报告内容。
可选的,在第一种实现方式中,测量报告可以包括至少一个待测对象中,测量结果满足预设条件的待测对象的ID信息。
示例性的,对应于第一种实现方式,在S504中,UE需先生成测量报告,再向网络设备发送测量报告。当测量报告中的内容为上述第一种实现方式,即测量报告包括测量结果满足预设条件的待测对象的报告内容时,在S503之后,UE先将测量的至少一个待测对象的每个测量结果与预设条件进行比对,再生成测量报告或者更新测量报告。
其中,在该示例中的生成测量报告,是将测量结果满足预设条件的待测对象的报告内容保存为测量报告。
在该示例中的更新测量报告,保证测量报告中包括最新一次测量后测量结果满足预设条件的待测对象的报告内容,具体实现可以包括下述三种情况:
情况1、若第一待测对象的测量结果满足预设条件,但测量报告中不包括第一待测对象的报告内容,则将第一待测对象的报告内容添加至测量报告中。其中,第一待测对象为S503中测量的至少一个待测对象中,测量结果满足预设条件的待测对象中任一个。
情况2、若第二待测对象的测量结果满足预设条件,但测量报告中包括的是第二 待测对象的前一次测量结果的报告内容,则将第二待测对象的最新报告内容添加至测量报告中。其中,第二待测对象为S503中测量的至少一个待测对象中,测量结果满足预设条件的待测对象中任一个。
情况3、若第三待测对象的测量结果不满足预设条件,但测量报告中包括的第三待测对象的报告内容,则将第三待测对象报告内容从测量报告中删除。其中,第三待测对象为S503中测量的至少一个待测对象中任一个。
第二种实现方式:测量报告包括UE测量的至少一个待测对象的报告内容。
示例性的,对应于第二种实现方式,在S504中,UE需先生成测量报告,再向网络设备发送测量报告。当测量报告中的内容为上述第二种实现方式,即测量报告包括S503中UE测量的至少一个待测对象的报告内容时,在S503之后,UE需生成测量报告或者更新测量报告。
其中,在该示例中的生成测量报告,是S503中UE测量的至少一个待测对象的报告内容保存为测量报告。
在该示例中的更新测量报告,保证测量报告中包括最新一次测量后,S503中UE测量的至少一个待测对象的报告内容,具体实现可以包括下述两种情况:
情况A、若测量报告中不包括第四待测对象的报告内容,则将第四待测对象的报告内容添加至测量报告中。其中,第四待测对象为S503中测量的至少一个待测对象中任一个。
情况B、若测量报告中包括的是第五待测对象的前一次测量结果的报告内容,则将第五待测对象的最新报告内容添加至测量报告中。其中,第五待测对象为S503中测量的至少一个待测对象中任一个。
进一步可选的,在上述第一种实现方式或者第二种实现方式的基础上,测量报告可以包括按照测量结果由高到低的顺序排列的待测对象的报告内容,即在测量报告中,将报告内容排序保存。
进一步的,S504中UE向网络设备发送测量报告时,对于UE所处的状态可以不进行限定,可以根据实际需求配置。
示例性的,在S504中,UE可以在进入RRC连接态后发送测量报告,也可以在建立RRC连接的过程中,当然,UE也可以在其他支持与网络设备通信的状态下执行S504。
具体的,UE在S504中向网络设备发送测量报告,可以配置一条专用消息用于发送测量报告,也可以使用现有的UE与网络设备的通信消息携带测量报告发送,本申请实施例对于发送测量报告的形式不进行具体限定。对于发送测量报告的消息,以及测量报告在消息中位置,可以预先规定并由UE和网络设备共知。
可选的,在S504中,UE可以在RRC连接态,通过RRC信令或者MAC CE向网络设备发送测量报告。或者,UE在建立RRC连接的过程中,通过Msg3或Msg5消息向网络设备发送测量报告。
进一步可选的,若UE仅被配置在进入RRC连接建立过程或者RRC连接态向网络设备发送测量报告,那么,在S503之后,S504之前,本申请实施例提供的测量方法还可以包括S504a。
S504a、UE查询自身RRC状态。
其中,RRC状态可以包括RRC IDLE态、RRC连接建立过程、RRC连接态。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例对于S504a中查询自身RRC状态的过程不进行详细赘述。在实际应用中,UE可以通过查询特定标志位或者UE的状态指示位等信息来执行S504a,当然,也可以采用其他方式执行S504a,本申请不进行具体限定。
具体的,根据S504中,UE查询的自身的RRC状态,选择重新执行S503或执行S504。若S504a中查询UE进入RRC连接建立过程或者RRC连接态,则执行S504;若S504a中查询UE处于RRC IDLE态,重新执行S503。当多次执行S503时,同一待测对象记录最新的测量结果,测量报告根据最新的测量结果得到。
S505、网络设备接收UE发送的测量报告。
其中,测量报告为UE在RRC IDLE态对至少一个待测对象测量所得。S505中接收的测量报告即为S504中发送的测量报告,对于测量报告的内容已经在S504中进行了详细描述,此处不再进行赘述。
如S504中描述,UE在S504中向网络设备发送测量报告,可以配置一条专用消息用于发送测量报告,也可以使用现有的UE与网络设备的通信消息携带测量报告发送,本申请实施例对于发送测量报告的形式不进行具体限定。对于发送测量报告的消息,以及测量报告在消息中位置,可以预先规定并由UE和网络设备共知。因此,S505中网络设备根据预先配置的UE发送测量报告的消息,以及测量报告在消息中位置,准确接收UE发送的测量报告。
可选的,在S505中,网络设备可以在RRC信令或者MAC CE接收RRC连接态的UE发送的测量报告。或者,网络设备可以在Msg3或Msg5消息接收建立RRC连接的过程中UE发送的测量报告。
进一步可选的,S504中UE向网络设备发送测量报告可以为UE主动执行,也可以为UE基于网络设备的请求执行。当S504中UE向网络设备发送测量报告是基于网络设备的请求执行,如图6所示,在S504之前,本申请实施例提供的测量方法还可以包括S504b和S504c。
S504b、网络设备向UE发送用于请求UE发送测量报告的请求消息。
其中,对于S504b中网络设备发送请求消息时UE的RRC状态,可以根据实际需求配置,本申请实施例对此不进行具体限定。对于S504b中网络设备发送的请求消息,可以是单独发送,也可以与现有的消息合并发送,本申请实施例对此也不进行具体限定。
示例性的,网络设备将S501中的配置信息和S504b中的请求消息合并发送,即将S501和S504b合并为一个步骤执行。

需要说明的是,在实际应用中,S504a和S504b可以同时进行,也可以先后进行,本申请实施例对此不进行具体限定,图6中只是示意了一种S504a和S504b的执行顺 序,并不构成具体限定。
进一步,网络设备可以根据测量报告对UE进行相关配置,比如添加辅助资源或者其他。可选的,如图6所示,在S505之后,本申请实施例提供的测量方法还可以包括S506。
S506、网络设备根据测量报告,选择至少一个待测对象添加为UE的辅助资源。
其中,S506中网络设备根据测量报告选择待测对象添加为UE的辅助资源,可以预先设定的添加规则,根据添加规则来选择添加。具体的添加过程本申请实施例不进行赘述。
