图1是本申请实施例可应用的通信系统100的场景示意图。如图1所示,该通信系统100包括网络设备102,网络设备102可包括多个天线组。每个天线组可以包括多个天线,例如,一个天线组可包括天线104和106,另一个天线组可包括天线106和110,附加组可包括天线112和114。图1中每个天线组示出了2个天线,然而对于每个组可使用更多或更少的天线。网络设备102可附加地包括发射机链和接收机链,本领域普通技术人员可以理解,它们均可包括与信号发送和接收相关的多个部件(例如处理器、调制器、复用器、解调器、解复用器或天线等)。
网络设备102可以与多个终端设备(例如终端设备116和终端设备122)通信。然而,可以理解,网络设备102可以与类似于终端设备116或122的任意数目的终端设备通信。终端设备116和122例如可以是蜂窝电话、智能电话、便携式电脑、手持通信设备、手持计算设备、卫星无线电装置、全球定位系统、PDA和/或用于在无线通信系统100上通信的任意其它适合设备。
如图1所示,终端设备116与天线112和114通信,其中天线112和114通过前向链路116向终端设备116发送信息,并通过反向链路120从终端设备116接收信息。此外,终端设备122与天线104和106通信,其中天线104和106通过前向链路124向终端设备122发送信息,并通过反向链路126从终端设备122接收信息。

被设计用于通信的每组天线和/或区域称为网络设备102的扇区。例如,可将天线组设计为与网络设备102覆盖区域的扇区中的终端设备通信。在网络设备102通过前向链路116和124分别与终端设备116和122进行通信的过程中,网络设备102的发射天线可利 用波束成形来改善前向链路116和124的信噪比。此外,与网络设备通过单个天线向它所有的终端设备发送信号的方式相比,在网络设备102利用波束成形向相关覆盖区域中随机分散的终端设备116和122发送信号时,相邻小区中的移动设备会受到较少的干扰。
在给定时间,网络设备102、终端设备116或终端设备122可以是无线通信发送装置和/或无线通信接收装置。当发送数据时,无线通信发送装置可对数据进行编码以用于传输。具体地,无线通信发送装置可获取(例如生成、从其它通信装置接收、或在存储器中保存等)要通过信道发送至无线通信接收装置的一定数目的数据比特。这种数据比特可包含在数据的传输块(或多个传输块)中,传输块可被分段以产生多个码块。
此外,该通信系统100可以是公共陆地移动网络PLMN网络或者设备对设备(device to device,D2D)网络或者机器对机器(machine to machine,M2M)网络或者其他网络,图1仅为便于理解而示例的简化示意图,网络中还可以包括其他网络设备,图1中未予以画出。

应理解,DC技术即支持两个不同的网络设备(例如,网络设备210和网络设备220)同时为一个终端设备230提供数据传输服务。其中,一个网络设备可以称为主基站或主节点(master node,MN),另外一个网络设备称为辅基站或辅节点(secondary node,SN)。应理解,主基站和辅基站可能是属于同一制式的基站,或者还可能是不同机制的基站。例如,主基站是NR制式的主基站(master gNB,MgNB),辅基站是NR制式的辅基站(secondary gNB,SgNB)。又如,主基站可以是LTE制式的主基站(master eNB,MeNB),辅基站可以是LTE制式的辅基站(secondary eNB,SeNB)。又如,主基站是NR制式的主基站MgNB,辅基站是LTE制式的辅基站SeNB。又如,主基站LTE制式的主基站MeNB,辅基站是NR制式的辅基站SgNB。因此,DC会存在多种组合,下面分别结合图3-图6对几种可能的DC组合进行举例描述。

需要说明的是,上述MCG由一个主小区和可选的一个或多个辅小区组成,一个SCG可以由一个主辅小区和可选的一个或多个辅小区组成。
应理解,图3至图6中,均以LTE基站为eNB,NR基站为gNB为例进行说明,但这并不应对本申请构成任何限定。还应理解,上述几种DC组合只是作为示例进行描述,而不应该将本申请实施例限定在上述几种DC组合。

还应理解,本申请实施例中“多个”是指两个或两个以上,鉴于此,本申请实施例中也可以将“多个”理解为“至少两个”。“至少一个”,可理解为一个或多个,例如理解为一个、两个或更多个。例如,包括至少一个,是指包括一个、两个或更多个,而且不限制包括的是哪几个,例如,包括A、B和C中的至少一个,那么包括的可以是A、B、C、A和B、A和C、B和C、或A和B和C。“和/或”,描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。另外,字符“/”,如无特殊说明,一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。本申请实施例中的术语“系统”和“网络”可被互换使用。除非有相反的说明,本申请实施例提及“第一”、“第二”等序数词用于对多个对象进行区分,不用于限定多个对象的顺序、时序、优先级或者重要程度。
在终端设备和一个基站进行通信的过程中,该终端设备会记录经过的小区的信息。该基站在获取到该终端设备经过的小区的信息后,可以根据终端设备经过的小区的信息对该终端设备的移动进行优化,或者还可以在切换的过程中,根据终端设备经过的小区的信息下发测量配置。
在DC的场景中,除了主基站可以触发终端设备进行切换之外,辅基站也可以触发终端设备进行切换。例如,辅基站可以触发终端设备进行多个辅基站之间的切换,或者还可以触发终端设备在该辅基站下的小区之间进行切换。
本申请实施例提供的历史信息的记录方法,辅基站可以根据终端设备经过的历史小区的速度和/或在历史小区中停留的时间配置一些相关的测量参数,从而指导辅基站触发终端设备进行切换准备。下面结合图7,对本申请实施例提供的历史信息的记录方法进行详细描述。
图7是本申请实施例提供的一种历史信息的记录方法的示意性流程图。如图7所示,该方法可以包括步骤710-720,下面对步骤710-720进行详细描述。
步骤710:当前辅节点获取终端设备经过的历史小区的信息。
历史小区的信息可以是终端设备经过的历史小区的信息,这里经过可以理解为终端设备接入该小区或者终端设备驻留在该小区或该小区为终端设备提供通信或连接服务。可选的,所述历史小区的信息包括所述终端设备在历史小区中停留的时间和/或在历史小区中移动的速度信息。
当前辅节点可以理解为该辅节点为终端设备提供提供通信或连接服务,或者终端设备接入该辅节点。当前主节点可以理解为该主节点为终端设备提供提供通信或连接服务,或者终端设备接入该主节点。
当前辅节点获取终端设备经过的历史小区的信息的具体实现方式有多种,可以是从终端设备接收该历史小区的信息,或者可以从主节点MN接收该历史小区的信息,该历史小区的信息可以是主节点MN记录的,或者还可以是终端设备记录并上报给主节点MN的, 或者还可以是终端设备记录并上报给辅节点的,或者还可以是在切换场景中,主节点MN作为目标基站,从其他节点获得的网络侧记录的,或者主节点MN作为目标基站,从其他节点获得的终端设备上报的。下面会结合具体的实施例进行详细描述,此处不再赘述。
终端设备经过历史小区的速度信息可以是终端设备自己上报的,或者还可以是主节点MN根据终端设备在经过的历史小区中停留的时间以及主节点MN对应频点小区的覆盖面积大小确定出速度信息,本申请对此不做具体限定。
需要说明的是,终端设备经过历史小区的速度信息可以是一个具体的速度数值,或者还可以是移动状态信息,例如,该移动状态信息可以包括但不限于:高度移动状态、中速移动状态、低速移动状态。
本申请实施例中,终端设备在经过的历史小区中停留的时间可以是终端设备在对应小区待过的时间,或者还可以是终端设备进入该小区的时间点,例如,绝对时间,某年某月某日等。
应理解,终端设备在经过的历史小区中停留的时间可以是终端设备自己上报的,或者还可以是主节点MN根据终端设备经过历史小区中停留的时间以及经过的历史小区数目确定终端设备在一个历史小区中停留的时间。
本申请实施例中,终端设备经过的历史小区的信息包括以下情况中的一种或多种:该终端设备在空闲态(RRC_idle)下经过的小区信息,该终端设备在去活动态(RRC_inactive)下经过的小区信息,该终端设备在连接态(RRC_connected)下经过的小区信息。可选地
步骤720:所述辅节点根据所述历史小区的信息进行切换准备。
本申请实施例中切换准备可以包括但不限于:辅节点SN向终端设备下发测量配置,辅节点SN确定是否进行切换。
以辅节点SN根据终端设备经过的历史小区的信息向终端设备下发测量配置为例。辅节点SN可以根据终端设备经过的历史小区的信息确定测量配置中的触发上报时间(time to trigger)。例如,当终端设备经过历史小区的速度较大(例如大于一速度阈值)时,可以将测量配置中的触发上报时间设置的短一些(例如小于一时间阈值),以便于终端设备可以在较短的时间内触发上报测量结果。又如,当终端设备经过历史小区的速度较小(例如小于一速度阈值)时,可以将测量配置中的触发上报时间设置的长一些(例如大于一时间阈值),以便于保证终端设备测量结果的准确性或避免过早切换终端设备。
以辅节点SN根据终端设备经过的历史小区的信息确定是否进行切换为例。辅节点SN可以根据终端设备在经过的历史小区中停留的时间和/或经过历史小区的速度信息确定是否切换至目标小区。例如,辅节点SN在某个小区中停留的时间较短(例如小于一时间阈值)和/或经过该小区的速度较小(例如小于一速度阈值),辅节点SN可以确定不切换至该小区。例如,辅节点SN在某个小区中停留的时间较长(例如大于一时间阈值)和/或经过该小区的速度较大(例如大于一速度阈值),辅节点SN可以考虑切换至该小区。又例如,辅节点SN根据终端设备经过的历史小区中停留的时间和/或经过历史小区的速度信息确定该终端设备的移动速度较小(例如小于一速度阈值),辅节点SN可以确定可以把终端设备切换到覆盖范围较小的小区(例如小于一覆盖范围的小区)。如果辅节点SN确定该终端设备的移动速度较大(例如大于一速度阈值),辅节点SN可以确定无需把终端设备切换到覆盖范围较小的小区(例如大于一覆盖范围的小区)。
应理解,本申请实施例中大于可以理解为一个数值比另一个数值大,也即对于任意存在的两个数值(第一数值,第二数值),都可在同一数轴上找到其对应的点,若第一数值在第二数值的右侧,则第一数值大于第二数值。小于理解为一个数值比另一个数值小,也即对于任意存在的两个数值(第一数值,第二数值),都可在同一数轴上找到其对应的点,若第一数值在第二数值的左侧,则第一数值小于第二数值。
下面以终端设备经过的历史小区的信息为该终端设备在RRC_idle下经过的小区信息和/或在连接态(RRC_connected)下经过的主小区的信息为例,结合图8-图11进行详细描述。下面的例子仅仅是为了帮助本领域技术人员理解本申请实施例,而非要将申请实施例限制于所示例的具体数值或具体场景。本领域技术人员根据所给出的例子,显然可以进行各种等价的修改或变化,这样的修改和变化也落入本申请实施例的范围内。
图8是本申请实施例提供的另一种历史信息的记录方法的示意性流程图。如图所示,该方法包括步骤810-820,下面分别对步骤810-820进行详细描述。
步骤810:当前主节点MN将终端设备经过的历史小区的信息发送给当前辅节点SN。
本申请实施例中当前辅节点SN获得的终端设备经过的历史小区的信息可以包括但不限于以下中的一种或多种:

终端设备经过的历史小区的全局小区标识(global cell identity,GCI);
终端设备经过的历史小区的频点;
终端设备在经过的历史小区中停留的时间;
终端设备经过历史小区的速度信息;
终端设备经过的历史小区的小区类型(比如小区大小为非常小,小,中,大中的某种)。
终端设备在经过的历史小区中移动的RRC状态(例如,空闲态(RRC_idle)、连接态(RRC_connected)、去活动态(RRC_inactive)),以及在该RRC状态中待的时间;
终端设备在经过的历史小区下的波束(beam)信息,例如,终端设备的服务beam信息,或者终端设备最好的beam信息。可选的,这里的beam信息可以是指同步信号块(synchronization signal block,SSB)或信道状态信息参考信号(channel-state information reference signal,CSI-RS)。
下面以终端设备为UE作为示例,列举出一种可能的历史小区的信息信元结构。
Figure PCTCN2020107879-appb-000001
Figure PCTCN2020107879-appb-000002
可选地,在一些实施例中,历史小区的信息是终端设备记录并上报给当前主节点MN的。例如,参见图9,在图8中的步骤810之前还包括步骤910-920。
步骤910:终端设备记录经过的历史小区的信息。
在当前的5G系统中,终端设备的无限资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)状态可以包括空闲态(RRC_idle)、连接态(RRC_connected)和去活动态(RRC_inactive),其中,RRC_inactive是新无线(new radio,NR)新引入的一种无线资源控制RRC状态(又称为“RRC非激活态”或者“RRC去活动态”或“非激活态”)。RRC_inactive与空闲态一样,在RRC_inactive下,终端设备与网络断开了RRC连接,从而达到与空闲态一样的省电效果。不同于空闲态的是,在RRC_inactive下,终端设备和接入网设备保存终端设备的上下文,当终端设备回到RRC连接态时,能够复用先前保存的终端设备的上下文,快速恢复连接。
本申请实施例中终端设备在记录经过的历史小区的信息时,可以记录在RRC_idle下经过的小区信息,或者还可以记录在RRC_inactive下经过的小区信息,或者还可以记录在RRC_connected下经过的小区信息。该小区可以是终端设备在RRC_connected下历史的服务小区或在RRC_idle或RRC_inactive下历史的驻留小区,上述服务小区或驻留小区可以是主节点MN下的小区,或者还可以是其他小区(例如终端设备没有建立双连接,终端设备只位于一个基站的一个小区中,终端设备的RRC状态可以是连接态、去活动态或者空闲态)。
作为一个示例,当小区改变时,例如终端设备由RRC_connected的主小区或RRC_idle的驻留小区或在RRC_inactive的驻留小区改变为另外一个同系统同无线接入技术(radio access technology,RAT)或者同系统不同RAT(比如连接到5GC的LTE基站和连接到5GC的NR基站之间)或者或异系统小区,或者终端设备进入一个非服务区(when entering out of service),终端设备在保存的移动历史信息中增加一个实体,该实体用于记录历史小区的信息。(可选的,对应的实体数目是有限的,如果数目超过了最大数目,则先删除最旧的实体)。终端设备可以按照以下方式记录相关内容:
如果先前服务小区(例如可以是先前的主小区)的全局小区标识CGI可得(即可以获得),终端设备则可以在该实体的访问小区标识(visited cell id)中携带该CGI。或者在该实体的visited cell ID中携带该服务小区的物理小区标识PCI和频点。该终端设备还可以在该实体中记录在先前服务小区中待的时间以及速度信息。
下面对终端设备确定速度信息的具体实现方式进行详细描述。
该终端设备可以记录并上报在某一时刻,经过小区时的速度和/或在该小区中的移动 状态信息,或者还可以记录并上报经过一个或多个小区的平均速度和/或在该一个或多个小区中的移动状态信息。
以终端设备记录在经过一个或多个小区的的移动状态信息为例。终端设备可以在一段时间范围内根据终端设备小区重选的次数与一定门限的比较确定移动状态信息。中速移动状态是指终端设备在一段时间内小区重选的次数在一定范围内(比如超过或等于一个值A,但低于或等于另外一个取值B,或者超过一个值A但不超过一个值B)。高速移动状态是指终端设备在一段时间内小区重选的次数超过一定取值(比如超过取值B)。正常移动状态是指终端设备在一段时间内小区重选的次数低于一定取值(比如低于A,或不超过A)。可选地,终端设备在进行移动状态信息判断时,不考虑连续的小区重选(比如一个小区重选之后,又重选回来。比如从小区1重选到小区2,之后又重选到小区1。比如这时候只认为进行了一次小区重选)。
可选地,上述时间范围和小区重选次数门限可以是网络侧通过广播消息发送给终端设备的。可选地,以上移动状态信息可以是终端设备在刚进入RRC_connected态之前的移动状态信息。应理解,以上移动状态信息可以是终端设备在进入RRC_connected态之前最近确定的移动状态信息,在终端设备进入RRC_connected态后,将上述移动状态信息上报给网络侧。
作为另一个示例,当终端设备从其他一个RAT进入到当前RAT中并在当前RAT中处于RRC_Connect或RRC_idle态,或者终端设备从非服务区进入到当前RAT中并在当前RAT中处于RRC_Connect或RRC_idle态,终端设备在保存的移动历史中新增一个实体,该实体用于记录历史小区的信息(对应的实体数目是有限的,如果数目超过了最大数目,则先删除最旧的实体)。在该实体中记录在当前RAT之外待的时间。
步骤920:终端设备将记录的历史小区的信息发送至当前主节点MN。
当终端设备从RRC_inactive或RRC_idle重新接入网络时,终端设备在接入网络时,可以将记录的历史小区的信息发送至当前主节点MN。
具体可选地,终端设备会指示网络侧(例如,主节点MN),终端设备保存了移动历史信息。作为示例而非限定,终端设备可以在RRC连接设置完成(RRC connection setup complete)消息或RRC连接建立重返完成(RRC connection resume complet)消息中携带一个指示信息,指示终端设备具有经过的历史小区的信息。之后主节点MN可以请求终端设备上报记录的历史小区的信息,例如,主节点MN可以在UE信息请求(UE information request)消息中携带一个指示信息,该指示信息用于请求终端设备发送记录的历史小区的信息。终端设备在收到请求之后上报移动历史信息。例如,可以在UE信息响应(UE information response)消息中携带终端设备记录的历史小区的信息。
需要说明的是,终端设备在不同的小区或基站间切换时,源小区或源基站会把该终端设备上报的历史小区的信息发送给目标小区或目标基站(比如,源小区或源基站可以在向目标小区或目标基站发送的切换请求消息中携带终端设备上报的历史小区的信息)。在切换过程中,当前主节点作为该目标基站,此时当前主节点可以从源基站接收历史小区的信息。
可选地,在另一些实施例中,历史小区的信息是当前主节点MN或/和其他节点记录的。参见图10,在步骤810之前还包括步骤1010。
步骤1010:当前主节点MN或/和其他节点记录终端设备经过的历史小区的信息。
当前主节点MN或/和其他节点可以记录终端设备在RRC_connected经过的该节点下经过的历史小区的信息。当前主节点MN或/和其他节点可以记录的终端设备经过的历史小区的信息与终端设备自己记录的历史小区的信息相同,具体的请参考上文中终端设备自己记录的历史小区的信息的描述,此处不再赘述。其他节点会把其记录的终端设备经过的历史小区的信息发送给当前主节点MN。比如在不同的小区或基站间切换时,源小区或源基站会把该终端设备上报的历史小区的信息发送给目标小区或目标基站(比如,源小区或源基站可以在向目标小区或目标基站发送的切换请求消息中携带终端设备上报的历史小区的信息)。
下面对当前主节点MN或/和其他节点确定历史小区的信息中的移动速度信息的具体实现方式进行详细描述。
作为另一个示例,当前主节点MN或/和其他节点确定终端设备经过一个或多个小区的平均速度和/或在该一个或多个小区中的移动状态信息。当前主节点MN或/和其他节点可以根据终端设备上报的在一定时间内终端设备小区重选的次数以及在各个小区中停留的时间、当前主节点MN或/和其他节点对应频点小区的覆盖面积大小确定终端设备经过一个或多个小区的平均速度和/或在该一个或多个小区中的移动状态信息。例如,当前主节点MN或/和其他节点根据终端设备历史经过的三个小区的时间以及该三个小区的覆盖面积,确定出终端设备在经过该三个小区的速度信息。
作为另一个示例,当前主节点MN根据主节点或/和其他节点记录的在一个或多个小区中停留的时间、当前主节点MN或/和其他节点对应频点小区的覆盖面积大小确定终端设备经过一个或多个小区的平均速度和/或在该一个或多个小区中的移动状态信息。例如,当前主节点MN根据终端设备历史经过的三个小区的时间以及该三个小区的覆盖面积,确定出终端设备在经过该三个小区的速度信息。
继续参见图8,在步骤820中,当前辅节点SN根据终端设备经过的历史小区的信息进行切换准备。
步骤820与步骤720对应,具体的请参考步骤720中的描述,此处不再赘述。
可选地,在一些实施例中,终端设备还可以直接将记录的上述历史小区的信息发送给当前辅节点SN。参见图11,该方法包括步骤1110-1130,下面分别步骤1110-1130进行详细描述。
步骤1110:终端设备记录经过的历史小区的信息。
与图9中的步骤910对应,具体的请参考步骤910中的描述,此处不再赘述。
步骤1120:终端设备将经过的历史小区的信息发送至当前辅节点SN。
可选的,在该步骤中,终端设备可以直接把经过的历史小区的信息发送给当前辅节点SN,比如通过信令无线承载3(signalling radio bearer 3,SRB3)。终端设备也可以先把经过的历史小区的信息发送给当前主节点MN,当前主节点MN再发送给当前辅节点SN。比如终端设备在发给当前主节点MN的RRC消息中携带该历史小区的信息,之后再由当前主节点发送给辅节点。又比如终端设备在给当前主节点MN的RRC消息中嵌套一个给当前辅节点的RRC消息,在给当前辅节点的RRC消息中携带该历史小区的信息,之后再由当前主节点把给当前辅节点的RRC消息发送给当前辅节点。
步骤1130:当前辅节点SN根据终端设备经过的历史小区的信息进行切换准备。
与图7中的步骤720对应,具体的请参考步骤720中的描述,此处不再赘述。
上文中介绍了辅节点SN根据终端设备经过主节点MN下的小区的信息进行切换准备。但是,由于终端设备在主节点MN下移动的小区数目可能和终端设备在辅节点SN下移动的小区数目不相同,另外,辅节点SN的小区变更时,可能主节点MN的小区并没有改变,所以辅节点SN根据终端设备在经过主节点MN下的小区中停留的时间和/或在主节点MN下的小区中移动的速度信息信息来作为切换准备的参考可能不是特别准确。作为一个示例,请参见图12-13,在图12中,终端设备在主节点MN下移动的小区数目为2个,而该终端设备在辅节点SN下移动的小区数目为6个,辅节点SN如果根据终端设备在经过主节点MN下的2个小区中停留的时间和/或在主节点MN下的小区中移动的速度信息信息来进行辅节点SN切换准备,其结果并不准确。又如,在图13中,辅节点SN的小区变更了多个,而主节点MN的小区并没有改变,因此,辅节点SN如果根据终端设备在经过主节点MN下的2个小区中停留的时间和/或在主节点MN下的小区中移动的速度信息信息来进行辅节点SN切换准备,其结果并不准确。本申请实施例中辅节点SN可以根据终端设备在辅节点SN下的小区中移动的历史信息进行切换准备。
可选地,在一些实施例中,终端设备可以记录在RRC_connected下经过的主节点MN下的历史小区的信息以及辅节点SN下的历史小区的信息,并将记录的历史小区的信息发送至主节点MN,由主节点MN发送给辅节点SN。下面结合图14进行详细描述。
图14是本申请实施例提供另一种历史信息的记录方法的示意性流程图。如图所示,该方法包括步骤1410-1440,下面分别对步骤1410-1440进行详细描述。
步骤1410:终端设备记录该终端设备经过的历史小区的信息,该历史小区包括一个或多个辅节点SN下的小区。
终端设备可以记录以下中的一种或多种:
终端设备记录在RRC_idle下经过的历史小区的信息;
终端设备记录在RRC_inactive下经过的历史小区的信息;
终端设备记录在RRC_connected下经过的主节点MN下的历史小区的信息以及辅节点SN下的历史小区的信息。
应理解,终端设备具体记录的历史小区的信息请参见图7中步骤710的描述,此处不再赘述。
可选地,在一些实施例中,终端设备记录在RRC_connected下经过的主节点MN下的历史小区的信息以及辅节点SN下的历史小区的信息时,还可以将辅节点SN下的主辅小区和主节点MN下的主小区关联起来。也就是说,终端设备在辅节点SN下的多个历史小区之间切换时,始终与同一个主节点MN的主小区连接。比如当主节点MN的主小区改变时,终端设备可以在新的主小区下重新记录该终端设备在辅节点SN下移动的历史小区。
下面结合具体的例子,对终端设备记录在RRC_connected下经过的主节点MN下的历史小区的信息以及辅节点SN下的历史小区的信息的具体实现方式进行详细描述。应理解,应理解,下面的例子仅仅是为了帮助本领域技术人员理解本申请实施例,而非要将申请实施例限制于所示例的具体数值或具体场景。本领域技术人员根据所给出的例子,显然可以进行各种等价的修改或变化,这样的修改和变化也落入本申请实施例的范围内。
需要说明的是,如果主小区改变,终端设备可以在新的主小区下重新记录该终端设备在辅节点SN下移动的历史小区,此时终端设备会在保存的移动历史信息中新增一个之前主小区的实体。如果主辅小区改变,终端设备会在保存的移动历史信息中新增一个之前主辅小区的实体。
作为一个示例,当主辅小区(primary secondary cell,PScell)小区改变或释放或辅节点释放时,如果当前主节点的主小区(primary cell,PCell)没有改变且最近的移动历史的实体是当前主小区的,则终端设备在该主小区对应的移动历史中包括一个记录之前主辅小区的信息。
应理解,双连接可以是两个不同的节点同时为一个终端设备提供数据传输服务,也就是说,在双连接的场景下,一个终端设备同时和两个不同的节点保持RRC连接。在双连接的中,终端设备首先发起随机接入信道的(random access channel,RACH)的小区(cell)所在的组(group)就是主小区组(master cell group,MCG)。在MCG下,可能会有很多个cell,其中有一个用于发起初始接入的小区,这个小区称为主小区(primary cell,PCell)。顾名思义,PCell是MCG里面最“主要”的小区。同样地,在辅小区组(secondary cell group,SCG)下也会有一个最主要的小区,也就是PScell,也可以简单理解为在SCG下发起初始接入的小区。
需要说明的是,可选的,对应的主辅小区的数目是有限的,如果数目超过了最大数目,则先删除最旧的主辅小区。
如果先前的主辅小区的全局小区标识CGI可得,则在经过的主辅小区标识(visited PSCell ID)中携带该CGI。或者在visited PSCell ID中携带该小区的物理小区标识PCI和频点。终端设备还可以在该实体中记录该终端设备在先前的主辅小区中待的时间。
作为另一个示例,当PScell小区改变或释放时或辅节点释放时,如果当前主小区没有改变且最近的移动历史的实体没有记录该当前主小区的,则终端设备在保存的移动历史的实体中增加一个记录当前主小区的信息。需要理解的是,当主辅小区改变或释放或辅节点释放时,如果实体中记录有当前主小区的信息,需要在当前主小区的信息中增加主辅小区改变之前的主辅小区的信息。如果当前实体中没有记录当前主小区的信息,需要在实体中增加当前主小区的信息,再在当前主小区的信息中增加关联主辅小区改变之前的主辅小区的信息。
需要说明的是,对应的主小区的数目是有限的,如果数目超过了最大数目,则先删除最旧的主小区。
如果主小区的全局小区标识CGI可得,则在该实体的visited Cell id中携带该CGI。或者在该实体的visited Cell id中携带该小区的物理小区标识PCI和频点。
如果先前的主辅小区的全局小区标识CGI可得,则在visited PSCell id中携带该CGI。或者在visited PSCell id中携带该小区的物理小区标识PCI和频点。并记录该终端设备在先前的主辅小区中待的时间。
下面以终端设备为UE作为示例,列举出一种辅节点SN下的主辅小区和主节点MN下的主小区之间相关联的历史小区的信息的信元结构。
Figure PCTCN2020107879-appb-000003
Figure PCTCN2020107879-appb-000004
需要说明的是,以上信元结构并不要求以上信元同时出现。
可选地,以该信元结构为例,当主辅小区改变或释放或辅节点释放时,如果当前visited cell information list中最新的visited cell information是当前主小区的信息(即最新的visited cell information中visited cell ID是当前主小区的标识),则在当前主小区对应的visited cell information下的visited PScell Information list中增加主辅小区改变之前的主辅小区的信息; 如果当前visited cell information list中最新的visited cell information不是当前主小区的信息,visited cell information list中增加当前主小区的信息(比如增加一个visited cell information,其中包括当前主小区的信息),再在当前主小区的信息中增加关联主辅小区改变之前的主辅小区的信息(比如在当前主小区的visited cell information下的visited PScell Information list中增加主辅小区改变之前的主辅小区信息visited PScell information)。
可选地,在一些实施例中,当对于主节点MN移动(比如主节点MN下的主小区改变)之后,新主节点MN中关联的辅节点SN对应的主辅小区的时间跨度(time spent)需要重新开始记录。即辅节点SN对应的主辅小区的time spent是指该主辅小区在对应主节点MN下某个主小区下的time spent。例如当主节点MN下的主小区改变时,则终端设备在visited cell information list中增加之前的主小区的信息,然后再在之前的主小区的信息中的visited PScell information list中增加当前主辅小区的信息。主小区的信息和主辅小区的信息具体内容同上,其中主辅小区的time spent是指该主辅小区在对应主节点MN下对应的主小区下的time spent。
可选地,在一些实施例中,当删除辅节点SN时,需要记录释放了辅节点SN的指示信息,该指示信息可以用于指示终端设备未连续配置主辅小区PSCell。
具体的,该指示信息可以携带在visited cell information中,或者还可以携带在visited PSCell information中。下面分别列举出上述两种不同情况下历史小区的信息的信元结构。
作为一个示例,该指示信息可以携带在visisted cell information中,历史小区的信息的信元结构如下所示。
Figure PCTCN2020107879-appb-000005
Figure PCTCN2020107879-appb-000006
应理解,上述指示信息理解为,终端设备接收到释放主小区和主辅助小区为终端设备建立的双连接的消息。可以是MR-DC SCG release指示。
作为另一个示例,该指示信息可以携带在visited PScell information中,历史小区的信息的信元结构如下所示。
Figure PCTCN2020107879-appb-000007
Figure PCTCN2020107879-appb-000008
需要说明的是,以上信元结构并不要求以上信元同时出现。
还需要说明的是,visited PSCell information list中的最后一个visited PSCell information释放掉。在最后一个visited PSCell information释放掉之后,在visited cell information list中增加当前主小区的信息(比如增加一个visited cell information,其中包括当前主小区的信息),再在当前主小区的信息中增加当前主辅小区的信息(比如在当前主小区的visited cell information下的visited PScell Information list中增加主辅小区改变之前的主辅小区信息visited PScell information。
可选地,在一些实施例中,终端设备分别记录主节点的主小区的历史小区的信息和辅节点的主辅小区的历史小区的信息。主小区的历史小区的信息和辅节点的主小区的历史小区的信息如下,基本含义同以上的描述。终端设备无需记录主节点的主小区和辅节点的主辅小区之间的关联关系。当终端设备的主节点的主小区改变时,则终端设备在visited cell information list中记录之前的主小区信息。当终端设备的辅节点的主辅小区改变或释放或辅节点释放时,则终端设备在visited PScell information list中记录之前的辅节点的主辅小区的信息。可选的,辅节点的主辅小区的信息包括小区标识,在该主辅小区待的时间,进入该主辅小区的开始时间,指示辅节点下的小区释放的信息的至少一种。可选的,当终端设备从没有连接到辅节点变为连接到辅节点时,辅节点的主辅小区的信息中还可以包括离上次释放辅节点的时间长度(比如,终端设备可以在主辅小区改变时记录之前的主辅小区 信息时,记录离上次释放辅节点的时间长度。可选地,一种可能的实现方式中,只需在从没有连接到辅节点到变为连接到辅节点之后的第一个主辅小区改变时记录离上次释放辅节点的时间长度)。另一种可能的实现方式中,只需在从没有连接到辅节点到变为连接到辅节点时记录离上次释放辅节点的时间长度。
下面以终端设备为UE作为示例,列举出一种历史小区信息的信元结构。
Figure PCTCN2020107879-appb-000009
Figure PCTCN2020107879-appb-000010
需要说明的是,以上信元结构并不要求以上信元同时出现。
可选地,一种可能的实现方式中,终端设备可以将该终端设备经过的历史小区的信息发送给当前主节点MN,通过当前主节点MN转发给当前辅节点SN。具体的请参见步骤1420-1430中的描述。
步骤1420:终端设备将该终端设备经过的历史小区的信息发送至当前主节点MN。
终端设备可以将记录的以下中的一种或多种历史小区的信息发送至当前主节点MN:
终端设备记录在RRC_idle下经过的历史小区的信息;
终端设备记录在RRC_inactive下经过的历史小区的信息;
终端设备记录在RRC_connected下经过的主节点MN下的历史小区的信息以及辅节点SN下的历史小区的信息。
应理解,当前主节点MN和终端设备记录在RRC_connected下经过的主节点MN可能是一个节点,或者也可能是不同的节点,本申请实施例对此不做不做具体限定。
需要说明的是,图14中的步骤1420为可选的。也就是说,可选地,一种可能的实现方式是终端设备将记录的该终端设备经过的历史小区的信息发送至当前主节点MN。可选地,另一种可能的实现方式是终端设备将记录的该终端设备经过的历史小区的信息分别发送至当前主节点MN和当前辅节点SN,下面会结合图15对另一种可能的实现方式进行详细描述,此处不再赘述。
步骤1430:当前主节点MN将终端设备经过的历史小区的信息发送至当前辅节点SN。
主节点MN在接收到终端设备上报的经过的主节点MN下的历史小区的信息以及辅节点SN下的历史小区的信息后,可以将终端设备在一个或多个辅节点SN下移动的历史小区的信息发送至当前辅节点SN。或者,还可以将终端设备在主节点MN下移动的历史小区的信息以及在一个或多个辅节点SN下移动的历史小区的信息均发送至当前辅节点SN。
应理解,一个或多个辅节点SN和当前的辅节点SN可能是一个节点,或者也可能是不同的节点,本申请实施例对此不做不做具体限定。
可选地,另一种可能的实现方式中,终端设备可以将直接该终端设备经过的历史小区的信息发送给当前辅节点SN。具体的请参见步骤1435中的描述。
步骤1435:终端设备将终端设备经过的历史小区的信息发送给当前辅节点SN。
在该步骤中,终端设备可以直接把经过的历史小区的信息发送给当前辅节点SN,比如通过信令无线承载3(Signalling Radio Bearer 3,SRB3)。终端设备也可以先把经过的历史小区的信息发送给当前主节点MN,当前主节点MN再发送给当前辅节点SN。比如终端设备在发给当前主节点MN的RRC消息中携带该历史小区的信息,之后再由当前主节点发送给当前辅节点。又比如终端设备在给当前主节点MN的RRC消息中嵌套一个给当前辅节点的RRC消息,在给当前辅节点的RRC消息中携带该历史小区的信息,之后再由当前主节点把给当前辅节点的RRC消息发送给当前辅节点。
可选地,在一些实施例中,上述两种可能的实现方式可以同时存在,或者还可以仅有一种其中一种实现方式,本申请对此不做具体限定。比如,可选地,另一种可能的实现方式是终端设备将记录的该终端设备经过的历史小区的信息分别发送至当前主节点MN和当前辅节点SN,下面会结合图15对另一种可能的实现方式进行详细描述,此处不再赘述。
步骤1440:应理解,辅节点SN根据终端设备经过的历史小区的信息进行切换准备。
应理解,辅节点SN可以根据终端设备在辅节点SN下经过的历史小区的信息进行切换准备,具体的有关切换准备的描述,请参考步骤720中的描述,此处不再赘述。
本申请实施例中,终端设备在辅节点SN下经过的历史小区的信息可以更好的反映辅节点SN的移动小区或数目,辅节点SN根据终端设备在辅节点SN下经过的历史小区的信息进行切换准备,例如,在下发测量配置时,根据终端设备在该辅节点SN下经过的历史小区的信息进下发测量配置,会使得测量更准确。
可选地,在一些实施例中,图14所示的方法还可以包括步骤1450,下面对步骤1450进行详细描述。
步骤1450:当前主节点MN将终端设备经过的历史小区的信息发送至核心网或者操作管理和维护(operation administration and maintenance,OAM)网元。
应理解,OAM网元也可以称为网管。
当终端设备在RRC_connected时,当前主节点MN可以将终端设备经过的历史小区的信息通知给核心网或者OAM网元,之后终端设备从RRC_connected回到RRC_idle,之后再回到RRC_connected时,核心网或者OAM网元会将该终端设备经过的历史小区的信息发送给当前主节点MN,以便于当前主节点MN可以根据终端设备经过的历史小区的信息进行切换。
可以理解的,上述实施例中的部分或全部步骤仅是示例,本申请实施例还可以执行其它操作或者各种操作的变形。此外,各个步骤可以按照上述实施例呈现的不同的顺序来执行,并且有可能并非要执行上述实施例中的全部操作。
可选地,在一些实施例中,终端设备记录主节点MN下的历史小区的信息以及辅节点SN下的历史小区的信息,并可以直接将辅节点SN下的历史小区的信息通知给当前辅节点SN。下面结合图15进行详细描述。
图15是本申请实施例提供另一种历史信息的记录方法的示意性流程图。如图所示,该方法包括步骤1510-1540,下面分别对步骤1510-1540进行详细描述。
步骤1510:终端设备记录该终端设备经过的历史小区的信息,该历史小区包括一个或多个辅节点SN。
与步骤1410对应,具体的请参考步骤1410中的描述,此处不再赘述。
可选的,在一些实施例中,图15所示的方法还可以包括步骤1520。
步骤1520:终端设备将记录的历史小区的信息发送给当前主节点MN。
具体的,终端设备可以通过第一信令无线承载(signalling radio bearer,SRB)与主节点MN之间进行信令传输,例如,终端设备通过第一SRB将记录的历史小区的信息发送给当前主节点MN。该历史小区的信息可以包括RRC_idle/RRC_inactive经过的驻留小区的信息和RRC_connected态下经过的主节点的主小区的信息,还可以进一步包括RRC_Connected态下经过的辅节点的主辅小区的信息。该历史小区的信息可以是步骤1410 中的visited cell information list,或者visited cell information和visited PScell information。。
第一SRB可以是SRB1或SRB2,其中,在接入层(access stratu,AS)层安全激活之后,网络可配置SRB2,SRB2用于非接入层(non-access stratum,NAS)消息的发送,使用的是专用控制信道(dedlicated control channel,DCCH)逻辑信道。SRB1用于无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)消息的发送,需要说明的是,RRC消息中可能包含NAS消息。或者SRB1用于在SRB2建立之前NAS消息的发送,使用的是DCCH逻辑信道。SRB2的优先级低于SRB1的优先级。
步骤1530:终端设备将历史小区的信息发送给当前辅节点SN。
具体的,终端设备可以通过第二SRB与辅节点SN之间进行信令传输,例如,终端设备通过第二SRB将记录的在RRC_connected下经过的辅节点SN下的历史小区的信息发送给当前辅节点SN。第二SRB可以是SRB3,用于特定RRC消息的发送,使用的是DCCH逻辑信道。
该历史小区的信息可以参考步骤1520中历史小区的信息的相关内容。
可选地,终端设备可以先把经过的历史小区的信息发送给当前主节点MN,主节点MN再发送给当前辅节点SN。比如终端设备在给当前主节点MN的RRC消息中嵌套一个给当前辅节点的RRC消息,在给当前辅节点的RRC消息中携带该历史小区的信息,之后再由当前主节点把给当前辅节点的RRC消息发送给当前辅节点。
步骤1540:当前辅节点SN根据终端设备经过的历史小区的信息进行切换准备。
当前辅节点SN可以根据终端设备在辅节点SN下经过的历史小区的信息进行切换准备,具体的有关切换准备的描述,请参考步骤720中的描述,此处不再赘述。
可选地,在一些实施例中,图15所示的方法还可以包括步骤1550,下面对步骤1550进行详细描述。
步骤1550:当前主节点MN将终端设备经过的历史小区的信息发送至核心网或者OAM网元。
当终端设备在RRC_connected时,当前主节点MN可以将终端设备经过的历史小区的信息通知给核心网或者OAM网元,之后终端设备从RRC_connected回到RRC_idle,之后再从RRC_idle回到RRC_connected时,核心网或者OAM网元会将该终端设备经过的历史小区的信息发送给当前主节点MN,以便于当前主节点MN可以根据终端设备经过的历史小区的信息进行切换。
可选地,在一些实施例中,辅节点SN自己可以记录终端设备在辅节点SN的小区下移动的历史小区的信息。相比较与主节点MN或终端设备记录该终端设备在辅节点SN的小区下移动的历史小区的信息而言,辅节点SN记录更能反映终端设备在辅节点SN下对应的历史小区的信息,从而更好的便于辅节点SN根据终端设备在辅节点SN的小区下移动的历史小区的信息进行切换准备或无需依赖于主节点MN或终端设备记录的历史小区的信息。下面结合图16进行详细描述。
图16是本申请实施例提供另一种历史信息的记录方法的示意性流程图。如图所示,该方法包括步骤1610-1620,下面分别对步骤1610-1620进行详细描述。
步骤1610:当前辅节点SN记录终端设备在当前辅节点SN的小区下移动的历史小区的信息。
当前辅节点SN自己可以记录终端设备在当前辅节点SN的小区移动的历史小区的信息。应理解,当前辅节点SN自己记录的历史小区的信息的具体内容与目前终端设备记录或主节点MN记录的内容可以类似,可以具体的请参见图7中步骤710的描述或图8中步骤810中描述,此处不再赘述。可选的,当前辅节点SN自己记录的历史小区的信息还可以包括终端设备进入该当前辅节点SN的主辅小区的时间点(比如绝对时间,某年某月某日等,或者相对到该MN请求增加SN的时间偏移等信息)。
下面以终端设备为UE作为示例,列举出一种可能的辅节点SN自己记录的历史小区的信息信元结构。
Figure PCTCN2020107879-appb-000011
需要说明的是,以上信元结构并不要求以上信元同时出现。
应理解,上述absolute time可以是终端设备经过主辅小区的绝对时间,time migration进入经过的主辅小区的时间相对到主节点MN请求增加辅节点SN的时间偏移。
可选地,在一些实施例中,当前辅节点SN记录的历史小区的信息是在同一个主节点MN的主小区下的记录。当主节点MN的主小区改变时,当前辅节点SN在新的主小区下重新记录。即,当前辅节点SN记录的历史小区的信息依附于一个主节点MN的主小区。比如可以和图14中步骤1410中的visited cell information list中包括visited PScell information list的方式体现依附关系。例如,可以在图14中步骤1410中的visited cell  information list中重新记录一个visited PScell information list。
步骤1620:当前辅节点SN将记录的历史小区的信息发送给当前主节点MN。
作为一个示例,当当前主节点MN的主小区改变时,当前主节点MN向辅节点SN发送指示信息,该指示信息用于指示当前主节点MN的主小区发生改变,当前辅节点SN可以根据该指示信息将记录的历史小区的信息上报给当前主节点MN。之后当前辅节点SN会在当前主节点MN新的主小区下重新开始记录历史小区的信息。
作为另一个示例,当前当主节点MN发生切换,也就是说,当当前主节点MN改变时,辅节点SN可以获知主节点MN发生切换,辅节点SN可以主动将记录的历史小区的信息上报给当前主节点MN。之后辅节点SN会在新的主节点MN主小区下重新开始记录历史小区的信息。
作为另一个示例,当当前辅节点SN发生改变时(比如终端设备从一个辅节点切换到另外一个辅节点),当前辅节点SN会主动将记录的历史小区的信息上报给当前主节点MN。
当前主节点MN和当前辅节点SN之间的关联关系可以是当前主节点MN记录的,或者还可以是当前辅节点SN记录的,本申请实施例对此不做具体限定。例如,当前主节点MN向当前辅节点SN发送当前主节点MN的主小区的标识,当前辅节点SN根据当前主节点MN的主小区的标识生成辅节点SN记录的历史小区的信息与主节点MN的主小区之间的对应关系。又如,当前辅节点SN将记录的所有终端设备在该当前辅节点SN的小区移动的历史小区的信息发送给当前主节点MN,当前主节点MN记录历史小区的信息与当前主节点MN的主小区之间的对应关系。
可选地,在一些实施例中,图16所示的方法还可以包括步骤1630,下面对步骤1630进行详细描述。
步骤1630:当前辅节点SN将记录的历史小区的信息发送给目标辅节点SN。
在当前辅节点SN发生切换的场景中,例如,将当前辅节点SN切换至目标辅节点SN。该当前辅节点SN可以作为源辅节点,将记录的历史小区的信息发送给目标辅节点SN,具体的实现方式有多种,本申请对此不做具体限定。
一种可能的实现方式中,源辅节点可以直接将记录的历史小区的信息发送给目标辅节点。目标辅节点收到该历史小区的信息之后,目标辅节点应该继续收集终端设备移动的历史小区的信息。也就是说,目标辅节点在源辅节点记录的基础上再增加记录终端设备在自己覆盖范围下的小区下移动的历史信息。比如源辅节点记录的终端设备移动的历史小区为(cell 1,cell 2,cell 3),目标辅节点是在源辅节点的基础上再记录,比如记录的终端设备移动的历史小区为(cell 1,cell 2,cell 3,cell 4,cell 5,cell 6)。
另一种可能的实现方式中,源辅节点可以将记录的历史小区的信息发送给主节点MN,由主节点MN转发给目标辅节点,目标辅节点在源辅节点记录的基础上再增加记录终端设备在自己覆盖范围下的小区下移动的历史信息。
可选地,当前辅节点把历史小区的信息发送给当前主节点之后,当前主节点可以根据当前辅节点的历史小区的信息以及之前主节点和辅节点之间关联的历史小区的信息,生成新的主节点和辅节点之间关联的历史小区的信息。例如,当前主节点可以根据当前辅节点发送的历史小区的信息中的时间信息来生成新的主节点和辅节点之间关联的历史小区的信息。可选的,当前主节点可以将新的主节点和辅节点之间关联的历史小区的信息发送给 目标辅节点。
可选地,在一些实施例中,图16所示的方法还可以包括步骤1640,下面对步骤1640进行详细描述。
步骤1640:当前主节点MN记录终端设备在该当前主节点MN的小区移动的历史小区的信息。
历史小区的信息的具体内容请参见图7中步骤710的描述或图8中步骤810中描述,此处不再赘述。

需要说明的是,以上信元结构并不要求以上信元同时出现。
可选地,在一些实施例中,步骤1630和步骤1640可以同时存在,也可以无需同时存在。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中,在辅节点SN下的主辅小区和主节点MN下的主小区之间相关联的场景中,当主节点MN或辅节点SN在记录终端设备的历史小区的信息时,当主小区的列表达到最大数目时,可以按照记录的先后关系把该列表中最早的小区消息删除。可选地,同时删除该主小区对应的主辅小区列表中所有主辅小区。当辅服务小区的列表达到最大数目时,基站可以按照记录的先后关系把当前主小区下面的主辅小区列表中最早的小区消息删除。
可选地,在一些实施例中,图16所示的方法还可以包括步骤1650,下面对步骤1650进行详细描述。
步骤1650:当前主节点MN将终端设备经过的历史小区的信息发送至核心网或者OAM网元。
当终端设备在RRC_connected时,当前主节点MN可以将终端设备经过的历史小区的信息通知给核心网或者OAM网元,之后终端设备从RRC_connected态进入RRC_idle,之后再回到RRC_connected时,核心网或者OAM网元会将该终端设备经过的历史小区的信息发送给当前主节点MN,以便于当前主节点MN可以根据终端设备经过的历史小区的信息进行切换。
可选地,当前主节点MN还可以根据当前主节点MN保存的历史小区的信息和当前辅节点SN反馈的历史小区的信息合并各个MN下SN小区的历史小区的信息。
可以理解的,上述实施例中的部分或全部步骤仅是示例,本申请实施例还可以执行其它操作或者各种操作的变形。此外,各个步骤可以按照上述实施例呈现的不同的顺序来执行,并且有可能并非要执行上述实施例中的全部操作。
可选地,在一些实施例中,核心网可根据终端设备的历史小区的信息或者核心网从其他实体比如网管获取终端设备的历史小区的信息进行用户拥塞相关的分析。核心网可以从基站接收终端设备的历史小区的信息,或从终端设备获得历史小区的信息,或者从其它实体比如OAM获得终端设备的历史小区的信息。历史小区的信息包括主基站节点MN下的历史小区的信息和/或经过的辅节点SN下的历史小区的信息。
应理解,核心网可以根据请求来进行拥塞分析,该分析可能是请求对某个区域的拥塞分析,也可能是根据某个终端设备ID,对该终端设备在当前请求分析的时刻所处的区域的拥塞分析。该请求还可能进行用户面的拥塞分析,或者还可以是控制面的拥塞分析,或者还可以是通过控制面发送的数据的拥塞分析,或者还可以是三者都分析。并且还可以指示一个门限,当拥塞级别超过该门限的时候,网络数据分析功能(network data analysis function,NWDAF)将提供对应的分析结果。
具体的,核心网可以根据输入的数据(input data)信息获得对应的输出分析(output analytics)。NWDAF收集的详细的输入数据信息请参见表1,NWDAF输出的拥塞分析请参见表2。

需要说明的是,表1中的性能测量主要是从OAM获取最小化路测技术(minimization of drive-test,MDT)的测量结果或OAM获取的统计量。MDT的基本思想是运营商通过签约用户的商用终端进行测量上报来部分替代传统的路测工作,实现自动收集终端测量数据,以检测和优化无线网络中的问题和故障。该技术的应用场景:运营商一般每一个月都要做例行的网络覆盖路测,针对用户投诉也会做一些针对特定区域的进行呼叫质量路测,这些场景的路测都可以用MDT代替。现有的MDT技术的测量类型可分为以下几种:
1、信号水平测量:由UE测量无线信号的信号水平,将测量结果上报给基站或基站控制器;

Figure PCTCN2020107879-appb-000015
下面以对某个特定的终端设备进行拥塞分析为例,结合图17,对核心网在接收到终端设备的历史小区的信息进行用户拥塞相关的分析的具体实现过程进行详细描述。
图17是本申请实施例提供的一种拥塞分析的方法的示意性流程图。如图17所示,该方法可以包括步骤1710-1790,下面分别对步骤1710-1790进行详细描述。
步骤1710:网络功能(network function,NF)网元向NWDAF发送请求对某个特定的终端设备进行用户数据拥塞分析的消息。
NF网元向NWDAF发送的请求对某个特定的终端设备进行用户数据拥塞分析的消息中可以携带该终端设备的ID。
可选地,在一些实施例中,NWDAF可能不知道某个特定的终端设备的位置,NWDAF可以根据从AMF或OAM中获取的终端设备的历史小区的信息来获取该终端设备的位置。比如根据历史小区的信息中的时间信息(比如进入历史小区的时刻和在历史小区待的时间) 来推算出当前终端设备的位置信息,比如对应的主小区或主辅小区的小区标识等。
可选地,在一些实施例中,NWDAF可能不知道某个特定的终端设备的位置,NWDAF可以通过步骤1720-1750获取终端设备的位置。
步骤1720:NWDAF向UDM查询服务该终端设备的AMF的ID。
NWDAF可以向UDM发送请求消息,该请求消息用于向UDM查询服务该终端设备的AMF。
步骤1730:UDM向NWDAF反馈服务该终端设备的AMF的ID。
UDM在接收到NWDAF发送的查询消息之后,可以向NWDAF反馈服务该终端设备的AMF的ID。
步骤1740:NWDAF向AMF发送查询终端设备的位置。
NWDAF在接收到UDM反馈的服务该终端设备的AMF的ID,可以向该AMF发送查询终端设备的位置。
步骤1750:AMF向NWDAF反馈终端设备的位置。
AMF可以在接收到NWDAF发送的查询某个特定的终端设备的位置的请求信息之后,可以将该特定的终端设备的位置发送至NWDAF。
可选的地,AMF可以根据终端设备的历史小区的信息,以及该终端设备具有DC的能力,可以获得终端设备当前可能的主节点的主小区和辅节点的主辅小区.可以将该特定的终端设备的主小区和主辅小区发送至NWDAF。
步骤1760:NWDAF向OAM请求该特定的终端设备的所处的位置的用户数据拥塞状态。
步骤1770:OAM向NWDAF反馈该特定的终端设备的所处的位置的用户数据拥塞状态。
可选地,在一些实施例中,如果NWDAF已经有了上述用户数据拥塞状态,可以省略步骤1760-1770。
步骤1780:NWDAF推导出对应的请求分析结果。
步骤1790:NWDAF向NF提供用户数据拥塞分析结果。
可选地,在一些实施例中,核心网还可以根据终端设备的历史小区的信息进行qos潜在改变的分析。核心网可以从基站接收终端设备的历史小区的信息,或从终端设备获得历史小区的信息,或者从其它实体比如OAM获得终端设备的历史小区的信息。历史小区的信息包括主基站节点MN下的历史小区的信息和/或经过的辅节点SN下的历史小区的信息。
具体的,核心网根据输入的qos需求(比如标准的5QI,或非标准的qos参数)、位置信息(比如感兴趣的路径,或者地理区域形式(比如区域坐标,或区域的多边形描述等))、以及触发通知qos改变的一些指标门限(比如上行平均吞吐量或下行平均吞吐量等)、可选还包括指示通知qos潜在改变的时间间隔,当满足对应的条件时,触发对应的qos改变通知,通知中可以指示对应qos改变的位置信息以及qos改变的时间信息等。目前NWDAF利用的输入数据(即利用那些统计数据进行拥塞分析)请参见表3。
表3为进行qos潜在改变的分析所收集的数据
Figure PCTCN2020107879-appb-000016
Figure PCTCN2020107879-appb-000017
其中,上述的每个时间段是在指运营商定义的OAM统计量对应的统计间隔,qos潜在改变的分析输出结果为对应的qos潜在改变发生时对应的位置和时间信息。
应理解,上述进行qos潜在改变的分析可以适用于车联网(vehicle to everything,V2X)的场景。V2X中的“X”代表不同的通信目标,V2X可以包括但不限于:汽车对汽车(vehicle to vehicle,V2V),汽车对路标设(vehicle to infrastructure,V2I),汽车对网络(vehicle to network,V2N),和汽车对行人(vehicle to pedestrian,V2P)。
V2X的业务可以通过两种方式提供:即,基于PC5接口的方式和基于Uu接口的方式。其中PC5接口是在直通链路(sidelink)基础上定义的接口,使用这种接口,通信设备(例如,汽车)之间可以直接进行通信传输。PC5接口可以在覆盖外(out of coverage,OOC)和覆盖内(in coverage,IC)下使用,但只有得到授权的通信设备才能使用PC5接口进行传输。
在本申请中,V2X直通链路传输支持两种资源分配模式,即,调度模式(可以称为:mode3或者mode1)和UE自主资源选择模式(可以称为:mode4或者mode 2):
其中,调度模式要求UE处于无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)连接态。在调度过程中,UE首先向接入设备(例如,eNB)进行资源请求,然后接入设备会分配V2X直通链路上的控制和数据资源。作为示例而非限定,在本申请中,调度模式下的调度可以包括半静态调度(semi-persistent scheduling,SPS)。
另外,在UE自主资源选择模式下,UE自己选择传输资源并自主调节V2X直通链路上控制和数据的传输格式。
下面结合图18,对核心网根据终端设备的历史小区的信息进行qos潜在改变的分析的具体实现过程进行详细描述。
图18是本申请实施例提供的一种qos潜在改变的分析的方法的示意性流程图。如图18所示,该方法可以包括步骤1810-1840,下面分别对步骤1810-1840进行详细描述。
步骤1810:用户向NWDAF发送对qos潜在改变进行分析的请求。
用户可能会提供不同的参数集合以便提供不同的位置信息和时间信息的混合需求。
步骤1820:NWDAF从OAM处收集相关的数据,具体请参见表3中的描述,此处不再赘述。
步骤1830:NWDAF进行数据分析。
NWDAF验证通知qos潜在改变的条件是否满足。NWDAF在请求的时间信息中的任何一个小区中通过比较目标第五代服务质量标识(5G Qos identifier,5QI)对应的期望关键性能指标(key performance indication,KPI)和用户提供的门限值,检测是否需要通知 qos潜在改变。该期望KPI是从OAM中获得的统计推到出的。如果该终端设备是支持DC的终端,NWDAF可以根据终端设备的历史小区的信息中主节点下的主小区信息和辅节点下的主辅小区信息,估计出在请求的时间信息中该终端设备可能的主小区和关联的主辅小区,通过综合考虑在OAM中获得的主小区和关联的主辅小区收集的数据得到期望KPI。
从OAM获得的信息还可能包括有计划或非计划的端点检测以及其他不在第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd generation partnership project,3GPP)范围内的一些信息。
步骤1840:NWDAF向用户反馈针对qos潜在改变的响应或者通知。
NWDAF可以把针对qos潜在改变的响应或者通知提供给用户。
