具体实施方式
下面将结合附图,对本申请中的技术方案进行描述。
本申请实施例的技术方案可以应用于各种通信系统,例如:全球移动通讯(global system of mobile communication,GSM)系统、码分多址(code division multiple access,CDMA)系统、宽带码分多址(wideband code division multiple access,WCDMA)系统、通用分组无线业务(general packet radio service,GPRS)、长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)系统、LTE频分双工(frequency division duplex,FDD)系统、LTE时分双工(time division duplex,TDD)、通用移动通信系统(universal mobile telecommunication system,UMTS)、全球互联微波接入(worldwide interoperability for microwave access,WiMAX)通信系统、未来的第五代(5th generation,5G)系统或新无线(new radio,NR)等。
本申请实施例中的终端设备可以指用户设备、接入终端、用户单元、用户站、移动站、移动台、远方站、远程终端、移动设备、用户终端、终端、无线通信设备、用户代理或用户装置。终端设备还可以是蜂窝电话、无绳电话、会话启动协议(session initiation protocol,SIP)电话、无线本地环路(wireless local loop,WLL)站、个人数字助理(personal digital assistant,PDA)、具有无线通信功能的手持设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备,未来5G网络中的终端设备或者未来演进的公用陆地移动通信网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)中的终端设备等,本申请实施例对此并不限定。
本申请实施例中的网络设备可以是用于与终端设备通信的设备,该网络设备可以是LTE系统中的演进型基站(evolutional nodeB,eNB或eNodeB),还可以是云无线接入网络(cloud radio access network,CRAN)场景下的无线控制器,或者该网络设备可以为中继站、接入点、车载设备、可穿戴设备以及未来5G网络中的网络设备或者未来演进的PLMN网络中的网络设备等,本申请实施例并不限定。
图1是本申请实施例的通信场景的示意图。如图1所示,该应用场景包括终端设备10和网络设备20,所述网络设备20可以为接入网设备,例如基站。每个网络设备20包 括一个或多个小区。当终端设备10移动到小区的覆盖范围内时,可以执行小区选择或小区重选。其中,小区选择是指终端设备在第一次接入网络时选择符合预设条件的小区并进行驻留的过程,例如,小区选择可以发生在终端设备开机时或脱网之后重新入网的时候。或者小区选择也可以发生在终端设备从连接态进入空闲态的时候。小区重选是指终端设备在接入网络之后,当存在比当前服务小区信号质量更好的小区的情况下,终端设备重新选择小区并驻留的过程。例如,小区重选可以发生在终端设备为空闲态的时候。
在现有的小区选择过程中,终端设备在开机或其他场景下,首先由终端设备的NAS进行PLMN选择,并在选择的PLMN中选择一个无线接入技术(radio access technology,RAT),然后由终端设备的AS执行小区搜索流程,并判断搜索到的小区是否符合驻留的条件。作为示例,现有技术中判断小区是否符合驻留条件包括以下内容:
(1)小区的PLMN是NAS选择的PLMN,小区的PLMN是注册的PLMN,或小区的PLMN是等价PLMN列表中的PLMN;
(2)小区不是被禁止的小区;
(3)小区的跟踪区域标识(tracking area identifier,TAI)不是漫游禁止的跟踪区域列表(forbidden tracking areas for roaming)中的TAI;
(4)小区满足小区选择准则(cell selection criteria),所述小区选择准则为:Srxlev>0,且Squal>0,其中,Srxlev表示小区选择接收(reception,RX)等级值(cell selection RX level value(dB)),Squal表示小区选择质量值(cell selection quality value(dB))。其中,作为一个示例,Sxlev和Squal分别可以用以下公式来表示:
Srxlev=Q rxlevmeas–(Q rxlevmin+Q rxlevminoffset)–Pcompensation-Qoffset temp    (1)
Squal=Q qualmeas–(Q qualmin+Q qualminoffset)-Qoffset temp     (2)
其中,以LTE系统为例,上述公式中涉及到的参数可以如表1所示。
表1
Figure PCTCN2020085554-appb-000001
Figure PCTCN2020085554-appb-000002
在一些示例中,Q rxlevmeas可以是参考信号接收功率(reference signal receiving power,RSRP),Q qualmeas可以是参考信号接收质量(reference signal receiving quality,RSRQ)。
可选地,测量的小区接收等级值Q rxlevmeas以及测量的小区选择质量值Q qualmeas也可以统称为小区测量值。可选地,公式(1)和公式(2)中的其它参数可以从系统消息中获取。
在小区选择的过程中,终端设备成功驻留在某个小区之后,会按照小区重选准则(cell reselection criteria)搜索信号质量更好的小区。作为一个示例,根据网络侧配置的优先级信息,小区重选准则可分为以下三种场景(a)-(c)。
场景(a):若目标小区的优先级比服务小区的优先级高,则触发小区重选的条件如下:
(1)在预设时间段内目标小区的Srxlev大于第一阈值;
(2)所述终端设备在所述服务小区驻留超过一秒。
其中Srxlev表示小区选择接收(reception,RX)等级值,第一阈值表示在终端设备在重新选择比当前服务频率更高优先级的RAT/频率时,Srxlev需要满足的阈值条件。例如,第一阈值可以表示为Thresh X,High,其单位可以为分贝(dB)。可选地,在本申请实施例中,预设时间段的大小可根据标准定义,预设时间段可以表示为Treselection RAT。上述预设时间段的大小在不同情形下可以不同,例如,候选小区和服务小区在同频和异频的情形下,预设时间段的大小可以不同。
场景(b):若目标小区的优先级与服务小区的优先级相同,则触发小区重选的条件如下:
目标小区在预设时间段内满足Rs大于Rs。
该场景下的小区重选条件可以称为小区排序准则(cell-ranking criteria),也可以简称 为R准则。其中,Rs和Rn分别表示服务小区和候选小区的小区排序准则。在一个示例中,Rs和Rn可以由以下公式表示:
Rs=Q meas,s+Q hyst–Qoffset temp;       (3)
Rn=Q meas,n-Qoffset–Qoffset temp;      (4)
其中,Qmeas,s和Qmeas,n分别表示服务小区和候选小区在小区选择中使用的参考信号接收功率(reference signal receiving power,RSRP)测量质量,Q hyst表示小区排序准则的迟滞值,Qoffset表示小区的偏移量,Qoffset temp表示临时应用于小区的偏移量。可选地,公式(3)和公式(4)中涉及的参数可以通过系统消息中获取。
场景(c):若目标小区的优先级比服务小区的优先级低,则触发小区重选的条件如下:
(1)目标小区在预设时间段内满足Srxlev大于第二阈值,且所述服务小区的Srxlev小于第三阈值;
(2)所述终端设备在所述服务小区驻留超过一秒。
其中Srxlev表示小区选择RX等级值,第二阈值和第三阈值表示当终端设备重新选择比当前服务频率更低优先级RAT/频率时,目标小区和服务小区的Srxlev需要满足的阈值条件。例如,第二阈值可以称为Thresh Serving,LowP,第三阈值可以称为Thresh X,LowP,其单位可以为dB。可选地,在本申请实施例中,预设时间段的大小可根据标准定义,预设时间段可以表示为Treselection RAT。上述预设时间段的大小在不同情形下可以不同,例如,候选小区和服务小区在同频和异频的情形下,预设时间段的大小可以不同。
可选地,上述小区重选条件不限于上述示例,也可以在上述示例的小区重选条件的基础上增加或减少若干条件。可选地,在场景(a)和场景(c)中,也可以采用Squal替代Srxlev,作为判断小区重选的条件。
上述计算小区选择和小区重选的准则所使用的参数来自于小区参数和小区测量值,并主要依赖与小区的优先级信息以及测量值,并未考虑小区的带宽(bandwidth)的限制。因此可能会出现终端设备选择并驻留在窄带(narrow band)小区的情况。在这种情况下,即使小区的信号质量较好,但由于带宽的限制,终端设备的数据传输速率较低,从而影响了用户体验。例如数据传输速率可能只有几千比特每秒(Kbps)或几十Kbps。
为了解决上述问题,本申请提出了一种小区选择和小区重选的方案。该方案在小区选择和小区重选的过程中考虑了小区的带宽信息,从而使得终端设备驻留在数据传输速率较高的小区,提高了用户体验。
图2是本申请实施例的小区选择方法的流程示意图。如图2所示,方法200的具体内容包括如下步骤。
S201、终端设备搜索第一候选小区。
可选地,终端设备通过小区选择流程搜索第一候选小区。可选地,本申请实施例中的候选小区也可以称为可用小区(suitable cell)。
可选地,小区选择流程可以包括两种方式。一种方式称为有存储信息的小区选择(stored information cell selection)流程,是指终端设备在存储有先验信息的情况下根据先验信息进行的搜索。先验信息用于指示历史驻留小区的小区信息,例如频点信息、载波频率、小区参数等。例如,终端设备可以根据先验信息中的小区频点信息,进行小区同步,在小区同步之后,获取小区的系统消息。终端设备可以只在存储有小区信息的小区中进行 搜索。然后判断是搜索到的小区是否满足预设条件,若满足预设条件,则判断是否在该小区驻留,若不满足,则继续进行小区选择流程。还有一种方式称为初始小区选择(initial cell selection)流程,是指在终端设备没有存储先验信息的情况下进行的全频段搜索。终端设备可以根据自身的能力和配置进行全频段搜索。
可选地,在一些具体示例中,在S201之前,终端设备的NAS可以执行PLMN选择流程,并选定一个PLMN。其中PLMN选择也可以称为选网。例如,终端设备可以维护一个PLMN列表,并根据优先级排序从PLMN列表中选定PLMN。在选定PLMN之后,终端设备的NAS可以向AS指示与选定的PLMN相关的无线接入技术(radio access technology,RAT),并指示终端设备的AS执行小区选择流程。
S202、终端设备接收所述第一候选小区的系统消息,所述第一候选小区的系统消息中包括用于指示以下内容的信息:所述第一候选小区的PLMN是NAS选择的PLMN,或所述第一候选小区的PLMN是注册的PLMN,或所述第一候选小区的PLMN是等价的PLMN列表中的PLMN;所述第一候选小区是未被禁止的小区;所述第一候选小区的TAI不是漫游禁止的跟踪区域列表中的(tracking area identifier,TAI);所述第一候选小区的参数信息;所述第一候选小区的带宽信息,所述带宽信息用于指示所述第一候选小区的带宽。
可选地,以LTE系统为例,上述带宽信息可以是系统消息中的主信息块(master information block,MIB)消息中的dl-Bandwidth(带宽)信息。例如,在通信协议中,dl-Bandwidth信息可以表示如下:
Figure PCTCN2020085554-appb-000003
其中,SQUENCE表示序列,ENUMERATED表示列举。n6,n15,n25,n50,n75等用于指示不同的带宽。
可选地,以LTE系统为例,系统信息块类型1(system information block type 1,SIB1)消息中的plmn-IdentityList(PLMN-身份列表)信息可以用于指示小区的PLMN,SIB1消息中的trackingAreaCode(跟踪区域码)新可以用于指示小区的TAI是否属于漫游禁止的TAI列表,SIB1消息中的cellBarred(被禁止小区)信息用于指示小区是否为禁止小区。在通信协议中,SIB1信息可以表示如下:
Figure PCTCN2020085554-appb-000004
可选地,上述第一候选小区的参数信息,可以包括用于计算小区选择接收等级值Srxlev和小区选择质量值Squal的参数。上述参数信息也可以携带于SIB1信息中。例如,SIB1信息中可以包括参数Q rxlevmin(q-RxLevMin)和参数Q rxlevminoffset(q-RxLevMinOffset)。
本领域技术人员能够理解,上述关于各信息的描述仅仅作为例子,系统消息也可以在其他位置携带上述各信息,本申请实施例对此不做限定。
S203、所述终端设备根据小区测量值和所述第一候选小区的参数信息,确定所述第一候选小区的小区选择接收等级值Srxlev和小区选择质量值Squal,并确定Srxlev>0,Squal>0。
可选地,终端设备可以根据第一候选小区包括的系统消息,判断第一候选小区是否符合小区选择的条件,在本申请实施例中,该条件可以称为第一预设条件。第一预设条件可以包括以下内容:
(1)所述第一候选小区的PLMN是NAS选择的PLMN,所述第一候选小区的PLMN是注册的PLMN,或所述第一候选小区的PLMN是等价PLMN列表中的PLMN;
(2)所述第一候选小区不是被禁止的小区;
(3)所述第一候选小区的TAI不是漫游禁止的跟踪区域列表(forbidden tracking areas for roaming)中的TAI;
(4)所述第一候选小区满足小区选择准则(cell selection criteria),所述小区选择准则为:Srxlev>0,且Squal>0,其中,Srxlev表示小区选择接收(reception,RX)等级值,Squal表示小区选择质量值。
其中,根据S202中的信息,第一候选小区已符合条件(1)-(3)。在S203中,终端设备可以根据小区测量值和第一候选小区的参数信息,确定小区选择接收等级值Srxlev和小区选择质量值Squal,并确定小区选择接收等级值Srxlev和小区选择质量值Squal符合条件(4)的要求。
其中,上述小区测量值可以包括测量的小区接收等级值Q rxlevmeas以及测量的小区选择质量值Q qualmeas。关于确定小区选择接收等级值Srxlev和小区选择质量值Squal的具体方式,可以参见前文中关于公式(1)和公式(2)的描述,此处不再赘述。
S204、在所述第一候选小区的带宽大于预设阈值的情况下,所述终端设备驻留在所述第一候选小区。
可选地,在第一候选小区满足第一预设条件的基础上,终端设备还需判断第一候选小区的带宽是否大于预设阈值,只有第一候选小区的带宽大于预设阈值的情况下,终端设备确定驻留在第一候选小区。终端设备可以根据S202中获取的带宽信息确定第一候选小区的带宽。
在本申请实施例中,终端设备在小区选择的过程中,选择带宽大于预设阈值的小区作为驻留小区,从而能够保证不会由于带宽原因导致数据传输速率降低,从而提高了用户体验。
在本申请实施例中,对预设阈值的大小不作限定,可以根据通信实践对预设阈值的大小进行设置。例如,可以设置预设阈值,使得在小区的带宽大于该预设阈值时,数据传输速率大于某个预设值。
可选地,除了将带宽与预设阈值比较之外,终端设备也可以采取其它方式判断第一候 选小区的带宽是否符合驻留的条件。例如,可以将小区的带宽大小与带宽等级对应。例如,根据带宽由小到大的顺序,可以将带宽等级划分为等级1、等级2、等级3、等级4等。终端设备可以根据第一候选小区的带宽对应的带宽等级,确定是否驻留在第一候选小区。例如,假设在第一候选小区的带宽等级大于或等于等级3的情况下,终端设备确定驻留在所述第一候选小区。
在一些示例中,在所述第一候选小区的带宽小于或等于预设阈值的情况下,所述终端设备确定不驻留在所述第一候选小区。进一步地,所述终端设备可以继续搜索其它符合第一预设条件的候选小区,若搜索到第二候选小区的带宽大于所述预设阈值,则终端设备驻留在第二候选小区中。
在本申请实施例中,若候选小区的带宽小于获得等于预设阈值,则终端设备继续搜索其它小区,直至找到带宽符合条件的小区,从而能够保证不会由于带宽原因导致数据传输速率降低,提高了用户体验。
在一些示例中,在所述终端设备搜索的符合第一预设条件的所有候选小区的带宽均小于或等于预设阈值的情况下,所述终端设备在符合第一预设条件的候选小区中确定驻留的小区,所述符合第一预设条件的候选小区包括所述第一候选小区。
例如,在所述第一候选小区的带宽小于或等于预设阈值的情况下,所述终端设备可以暂不驻留在所述第一候选小区,并继续搜索其它候选小区,若搜索到所有的候选小区的带宽均小于或等于所述预设阈值,则终端设备在已搜索到的候选小区中任意选择一个小区进行驻留。并且可以开启周期性搜索,以搜索带宽大于预设阈值的小区,若搜索到符合条件的小区,可以在小区重选流程中切换小区。或者,还可以采取其他等价或变化的方式判断小区带宽是否符合在小区驻留的条件,本申请实施例对此不作限定。
在本申请实施例中,若搜索到的候选小区的带宽均不符合预设条件,则终端设备在已搜索到的符合第一预设条件的小区中选择驻留的小区,保证终端设备能顺利驻留在小区中,以提高用户体验。
可选地,在所述第一候选小区的带宽小于或等于预设阈值的情况下,所述终端设备将所述第一候选小区标记为当前RAT内优先级最低的小区,或标记为所述终端设备支持的所有RAT内优先级最低的小区。其中,所述当前RAT是指当前驻留的小区所对应的RAT。其中,通常情况下,一个PLMN可支持多个RAT。例如,中国移动可支持GSM、时分-同步码分多址(time division-synchronous code division multiple access,TD-SCDMA)和LTE。
例如,终端设备通过系统消息可以获取到第一候选小区的优先级信息。可选地,小区的优先级由低到高可以由数字0-7表示。若第一候选小区的带宽小于或等于预设阈值。则终端设备可以在本地修改第一候选小区的优先级信息,将其修改为当前RAT内优先级最低的小区,或标记为所述终端设备支持的所有RAT内优先级最低的小区。例如,LTE制式内的最低优先级为5,若在当前RAT内修改,则可以将第一候选小区的优先级修改为5。若在所有RAT内对优先级进行修改,则可以将第一候选小区的优先级修改为0。在修改优先级之后,终端设备可以参考本地修改后的优先级信息,执行后续的小区重选过程。
在本申请实施例中,终端设备通过在本地将带宽小于或等于预设阈值的小区标记为优先级最低的小区,从而在后续的小区重选过程中可以优先驻留在带宽大于预设阈值的小区,提高了用户体验。
可选地,在本地存储有先验消息的情况下,所述终端设备根据所述先验消息搜索所述第一候选小区,所述先验消息用于指示历史驻留小区的小区信息。在一些示例中,在本地未存储有先验消息的情况下,所述终端设备在全频段搜索所述第一候选小区,所述先验消息用于指示历史驻留小区的小区信息。
可选地,在本地未存储有先验消息的情况下,所述终端设备在全频段搜索所述第一候选小区,所述先验消息用于指示历史驻留小区的小区信息。
作为小区选择方法的一个示例,假设终端设备第一小区A和第二小区B的覆盖范围内,第一小区A和第二小区B均符合第一预设条件。第一小区A的带宽小于预设阈值,第二小区B大于预设阈值。则按照现有技术中的小区选择流程,若终端设备先搜索到第一小区A,终端设备将选择驻留在第一小区A中,并不考虑带宽因素,由于带宽的限制,终端设备的数据传输速率将远低于用户的预期,从而导致用户体验较差。而在本申请实施例中,若终端设备在小区选择流程中先搜索到第一小区A,由于第一小区A的带宽小于预设阈值,终端设备并不驻留在第一小区A中,而是继续搜索符合第一预设条件的其它候选小区,直至搜索到第二小区B。由于第二小区B的带宽大于预设阈值,因此终端设备最终驻留在第二小区B中,从而保证终端设备的数据传输速率,提高用户体验。
图3是本申请又一实施例的小区选择方法的示意图。如图3所示,小区选择方法300包括以下内容。
S301、终端设备的NAS选定一个PLMN,并指示终端设备的AS执行小区选择流程。
可选地,关于小区选择流程的具体内容,可参见图2的相关描述,此处不再赘述。
S302、若终端设备存储有先验信息,则执行有存储信息的小区选择流程。
例如,若终端设备搜索到符合第一预设条件的候选小区,则终端设备确定该候选小区的带宽是否大于预设阈值。若候选小区的带宽大于预设阈值,则驻留在该候选小区上。若候选小区的带宽小于或等于预设阈值,则可以将该候选小区标记为当前RAT内优先级最低的小区,或者标记为所有RAT内优先级最低的小区,然后终端设备继续执行有存储信息的小区选择流程。若终端设备搜索的所有候选小区的带宽均小于预设阈值,则终端设备可以在搜索到的候选小区中选择一个小区作为驻留小区。
可选地,若终端设备通过执行有存储信息的小区选择流程未搜索到符合预设条件的候选小区,则可以继续执行S303。
S303、若终端设备未存储先验信息或者通过有存储信息的小区选择流程未搜索到候选小区,则终端设备执行初始小区选择流程。
在具体示例中,终端设备可以在全频段搜索符合第一预设条件的候选小区。若候选小区的带宽大于预设阈值,则驻留在该候选小区上。若候选小区的带宽小于或等于预设阈值,则可以将该候选小区标记为当前RAT内优先级最低的小区,或者标记为所有RAT内优先级最低的小区,然后终端设备继续执行初始小区选择流程。若终端设备搜索的所有候选小区的带宽均小于预设阈值,则终端设备可以在已搜索到的符合第一预设条件的候选小区中选择一个小区作为驻留小区,并且终端设备可以开启周期性搜索,该周期性搜索用于搜索小区带宽大于预设阈值的小区。
在具体示例中,若终端设备通过初始小区选择流程未搜索到候选小区,则终端设备执行任意小区搜索(any cell search)流程。其中任意小区搜索流程是指终端设备在不能获取正常服务的情况下尝试受限驻留的过程。通过任意小区搜索流程驻留的服务小区仅提供紧 急服务。其中驻留的小区还需满足以下条件:(1)不是被禁止的小区;(2)满足基本的小区驻留准则。或者,终端设备可以上报搜索失败,重新触发选网流程。
下文结合图4,介绍本申请实施例的小区重选的方法400,该方法400包括以下内容。
S401、终端设备接收驻留的服务小区的系统消息,所述系统消息中包括邻区信息,所述邻区信息中包括第一候选小区的优先级信息和参数信息。
其中,上述第一候选小区的参数信息可以包括用于判断小区是否符合小区重选条件的参数。例如,对于前文中小区重选准则的场景(a)和场景(c)来说,上述参数信息可以包括用于计算Srxlev或Squal所需的参数。对于小区重选准则的场景(b)来说,上述参数信息可以包括用于计算Rs和Rn所需的参数等。
作为一个示例,在LTE系统中,所述邻区信息可以位于系统消息中的系统信息块类型4(system information block type 4,SIB4)信息、系统信息块类型5(system information block type 5,SIB5)信息和/或系统信息块类型6(system information block type 6,SIB6)信息中。
S402、所述终端设备根据所述第一候选小区的优先级信息和参数信息,确定所述第一候选小区满足小区重选条件。
例如,终端设备可以根据第一候选小区的优先级信息,对第一候选小区和当前驻留的小区的优先级进行比较,确定适用于小区重选准则的场景(a)-(c)中的哪一个。然后根据小区测量结果以及参数信息,进一步判断第一候选小区是否满足小区重选条件。
其中,关于上述场景(a)-(c)的小区重选准则的具体内容,可以参考前文中的相关描述,为了简洁,此处不再赘述。
S403、所述终端设备接收所述第一候选小区的系统消息,所述第一候选小区的系统消息中包括所述第一候选小区的带宽信息,所述带宽信息用于指示所述第一候选小区的带宽。
例如,终端设备可以根据邻区信息获取到第一候选小区的频点信息,并根据第一候选小区的频点信息与第一候选小区进行小区同步,然后接收第一候选小区的系统消息。作为一个示例,在LTE系统中,带宽信息可以是系统消息中的主信息块(master information block,MIB)消息中的dl-Bandwidth(带宽)信息。
S404、在所述第一候选小区的带宽大于预设阈值的情况下,所述终端设备从所述服务小区切换至所述第一候选小区。
可选地,所述当前驻留的服务小区也可以称为源小区,所述第一候选小区也可以称为可用小区(suitable cell)。在终端设备确定切换至所述第一候选小区的情况下,所述第一候选小区可称为目标小区。
可选地,在第一候选小区满足小区重选条件的基础上,终端设备还需判断第一候选小区的带宽是否大于预设阈值,只有第一候选小区的带宽大于预设阈值的情况下,终端设备确定切换至第一候选小区。终端设备可以根据S403中获取的带宽信息确定第一候选小区的带宽。
在本申请实施例中,终端设备在小区重选的过程中,选择切换至带宽大于预设阈值的小区上,从而能够保证不会由于带宽原因导致数据传输速率降低,从而提高了用户体验。
在一些示例中,在所述第一候选小区的带宽小于或等于所述预设阈值的情况下,所述终端设备确定继续驻留在当前的服务小区。
在一些示例中,在所述第一候选小区的带宽小于或等于所述预设阈值的情况下,所述终端设备可以在本地将所述第一候选小区标记为被禁止的小区。当第一候选小区被标记为被禁止的小区之后,在预设时间段段内禁止终端设备在所述第一候选小区上驻留。该预设时间段的时长可以根据实践确定,本申请实施例对此不作限定。
例如,当第一候选小区的带宽小于或等于预设阈值的情况下,可以将所述第一候选小区加入到限制带宽的禁止小区列表(cell barred list for limited bandwidth),以禁止驻留在所述第一候选小区,然后结束小区重选流程。或者也可以不对第一候选小区进行处理,而是确定小区重选失败,从而继续驻留在当前的服务小区中。
作为小区重选方法的一个示例,假设终端设备当前驻留在第二小区B,第一小区A为终端设备的邻小区。根据系统消息,第一小区A的优先级高于第二小区B,并且第一小区A符合现有技术中的小区重选的条件(参见前文中小区重选准则的场景(a))。第一小区A的带宽小于预设阈值,第二小区B的带宽大于预设阈值。若按照现有的小区重选方案,终端设备将切换至第一小区A,由于带宽的限制,终端设备的数据传输速率将远低于用户的预期,从而导致用户体验较差。而在本申请实施例中,由于第一小区A的带宽小于预设阈值,因此,终端设备并不会切换至第一小区A,而是继续驻留在第二小区B。
另外,若终端设备在之前的小区选择或小区重选过程中搜索到第一小区A,则会在本地将第一小区A标记为优先级最低的小区,因此,在小区重选过程中,不会优先考虑第一小区A,从而保证终端设备的数据传输速率,提高用户体验。
图5是本申请又一实施例的小区重选方法的流程示意图。如图5所示,该小区重选方法500的流程如下。
S501、终端设备驻留在源小区。
S502、终端设备对候选小区进行小区测量,并根据小区测量的结果确定开始小区重选流程。
S503、若候选小区满足小区重选条件,终端设备获取候选小区的带宽信息。
其中,小区重选条件如前文所述,此处不再赘述。
可选地,终端设备可以确定自身是否存储有候选小区的带宽信息。若未存储候选小区的带宽信息,则终端设备可以通过接收候选小区的系统消息获取候选小区的带宽信息,候选小区的系统消息中包括带宽信息。
可选地,若候选小区不满足小区重选条件,终端设备继续执行小区测量和小区重选流程。
S504、终端设备根据候选小区的带宽信息,确定是否从源小区切换至候选小区。
例如,若候选小区的带宽大于预设阈值,则终端设备从源小区切换至候选小区。
例如,若候选小区的带宽小于或等于预设阈值,则终端设备驻留在源小区。可选地,终端设备可以将候选小区添加到限定带宽的禁止小区列表中,并结束小区重选流程。在这种情况下,终端设备在一段时间内禁止驻留在所述候选小区。或者终端设备也可以不对候选小区做任何特殊处理,而是确定小区重选失败,并继续驻留在源小区中。
图6是本申请又一实施例的小区选择和小区重选的方法的流程示意图。图6示出了小区选择和小区重选的详细流程。如图6所示,该方法包括:
S601、终端设备选定PLMN。
例如,终端设备的NAS在预先存储的PLMN列表中进行选网,并选定一个PLMN。 例如,终端设备可以根据优先级排序从PLMN列表中选定PLMN。在选定PLMN之后,终端设备的NAS可以向AS指示与选定的PLMN相关的RAT,并指示终端设备的AS执行小区选择流程。终端设备的AS根据是否存储有PLMN对应的小区信息,执行有存储信息的小区选择流程或者执行初始小区选择流程,该小区信息中包括先验信息。
S602、若终端设备存储有PLMN对应的小区信息,则执行有存储信息的小区选择流程。
其中,小区选择流程用于搜索符合上述第一预设条件的候选小区。例如,终端设备可以根据先验信息中历史驻留小区的频点信息,搜索符合第一预设条件的候选小区。可选地,若根据有存储信息的小区选择流程没有搜索到符合第一预设条件的候选小区,则终端设备执行S603。
S603、若终端设备未存储PLMN对应的小区信息,或者在有存储信息的小区选择流程中没有搜索到符合第一预设条件的候选小区,则执行初始小区选择流程。
其中,初始小区选择流程即在全频段搜索符合第一预设条件的候选小区。
S604、若搜索到符合第一预设条件的候选小区,终端设备判断所述候选小区的带宽是否大于预设阈值。
若通过S602或S603搜索到符合以预设条件的候选小区,则终端设备判断候选小区的带宽是否大于预设阈值。若候选小区的带宽大于预设阈值,则驻留在该候选小区。若候选小区的带宽小于预设阈值,则返回到S602或S603中继续执行小区选择流程。
其中,终端设备可以通过系统消息获取候选小区的带宽信息。例如,候选小区的带宽信息可以为系统消息中的MIB消息中的dl-Bandwidth(带宽)信息。
可选地,在候选小区的带宽大于预设阈值的情况下,若终端设备在选择的PLMN中进行NAS注册时由于一些原因(some causes)被拒绝,则可以执行步骤S608中的任意小区选择流程。
S605、若终端设备在S603和S604中搜索到一个或多个符合第一预设条件的候选小区,但搜索到的所有候选小区的带宽均小于或等于预设阈值,则终端设备在上述候选小区中选择一个小区驻留。若终端设备在S603和S604中未搜索到符合第一预设条件的候选小区,则终端设备执行S608中的任意小区选择流程。
S606、终端设备在从连接态回到空闲态或非激活态的情况下,可以执行离开连接态后的小区选择流程。其中,终端设备首先搜索上一个驻留的小区,并判断是否符合第一预设条件,并执行S604。若上一个驻留的小区不符合第一预设条件,则终端设备执行S602中的有存储信息的小区选择流程。
例如,终端设备在驻留在小区上之后,离开空闲态和/或非激活态,而处于连接态。当终端设备从连接态回到空闲态和/或非激活态时,终端设备可以执行离开连接态后的小区选择流程。其中,在离开连接态后的小区选择流程中,终端设备优先尝试在上一个驻留的服务小区中驻留,若不能驻留,则搜索其它小区并尝试驻留。
S607、终端设备在服务小区中驻留之后,在检测到符合小区重选条件的候选小区时,可以触发小区重选流程。
其中,关于小区重选条件可以参考前文中关于小区重选规则的相关描述,此处不再赘述。在搜索到符合小区重选条件的候选小区之后,终端设备可以执行S604的步骤,以判断是否从驻留的源小区切换到该候选小区。若该候选小区的带宽小于或等于预设阈值,则 可以结束小区重选流程,并重新驻留在源小区中。或者,若没有找到符合重选条件的候选小区时,可以执行S608中的任意小区选择流程。
S608、终端设备执行任意小区选择流程。
若终端设备在小区选择过程中未搜索到符合第一预设条件的候选小区,或者在小区重选过程中未搜索到符合小区重选条件的小区,或者在搜索到符合第一预设条件的候选小区,但在NAS注册被拒绝时,可以执行任意小区选择流程。任意小区选择流程也可以称为任意小区搜索流程,是指终端设备在不能获取正常服务的情况下尝试受限驻留的过程。关于任意小区搜索流程的相关内容可以参考图3中的相关描述,此处不再赘述。
