Detailed Description
Overview of the function
At present, in a multi-carrier system, a quality of Service (QoS) is reduced due to channel fading, and at this time, a terminal at a cell edge terminates a connection with a current serving base station and switches to a carrier of an adjacent base station to obtain a better QoS; with the increase of the traffic volume and the introduction of new traffic, the load of the carrier where the user in the cell center is located is too heavy, and if the load of other carriers of the service base station of the user is small, the user can switch to other carriers of the service base station to ensure the system load balance. In addition, different carriers of the non-continuous frequency band may generate fading of different degrees, and if the channel quality of the carrier where the user is located is degraded, the carrier of the user may also be switched to other carriers with better channel quality of the serving base station to meet the QoS requirement of the user. Based on this, the invention provides a scanning method based on a multi-carrier system, which prepares for the base station switching of a terminal.
The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Method embodiment
According to an embodiment of the present invention, a scanning method based on a multi-carrier system is provided.
The scanning method based on the multi-carrier system according to the embodiment comprises the following steps: a serving base station of a terminal informs the terminal of carrier scanning through a scanning message, wherein the scanning message comprises at least one of the following: radio frequency channel information scanned by the terminal, and one or more carriers to be scanned by the terminal. The terminal can then scan one or more carriers according to the scan message and using the radio frequency channel indicated in the radio frequency channel information. Preferably, the base station may transmit the scan message to the terminal through a primary carrier of the terminal.
Preferably, the scan message may further include at least one of: scanning start time, scanning interval, scanning result reporting rule, type of report value to be reported and scanning type. Wherein the report value type may include at least one of: carrier to interference plus noise ratio, received signal strength indication, relative delay, round trip delay.
In addition, in the case that the channel scanned by the terminal and the radio frequency channel used by the terminal for communicating with the serving base station are the same channel (that is, the terminal has only one radio frequency channel, and the channel is used for both normal communication between the terminal and the base station and scanning of the terminal), the scanning message may further include a non-scanning interval and a repetition number.
Wherein the scan type indicated in the scan message may include at least one of: scanning only, association without base station cooperation, association with network cooperation.
For each base station that the terminal needs to scan, the serving base station needs to inform the terminal of the scanning types of these base stations that need to scan. Moreover, for each base station that the terminal needs to scan, the scanning types of all carriers on the base station are the same or different, that is, all carriers on the base station may use the same scanning mode, or different scanning modes may be used for different carriers (for example, one part of carriers uses scanning mode 1, and another part of carriers uses scanning mode 2).
In addition, if the scanning type is association without base station cooperation or association with network cooperation, the scanning message may further include association information, where the association information specifically may include: association level, time when association is performed, dedicated ranging code used for performing association, and dedicated ranging resource information.
At this time, the terminal may send a dedicated ranging code to the base station to which the carrier associated with the terminal belongs on the dedicated ranging resource of the carrier to be scanned at a predetermined association time according to the association information; when the scanning type is association of network cooperation, the base station may send a ranging result of the terminal to the serving base station through a backbone network, where the ranging result includes: the terminal executes time adjustment information, frequency adjustment information, power adjustment information, ranging state, services which can be provided by the carrier waves and the like on the carrier waves associated with network coordination; finally, the serving base station may send the ranging result to the terminal.
In addition, the one or more carriers that the terminal needs to scan may include: the serving base station determines a bitmap of a base station and/or an identifier of the base station that the terminal needs to scan, and the scanning, by the terminal, of one or more carriers by using a radio frequency channel includes: the terminal scans partial or all carriers of the base station corresponding to the bitmap of the base station and/or the identification of the base station; and/or, the serving base station determines a bitmap of a base station and/or an identifier of the base station that the terminal needs to scan, and an identifier of a carrier that needs to be scanned under the base station and corresponds to the bitmap of the base station and/or the identifier of the base station, and then the terminal scans one or more carriers by using a radio frequency channel includes: and the terminal scans the carrier corresponding to the carrier identifier under the base station corresponding to the bitmap of the base station and/or the identifier of the base station.
Before the serving base station terminal notifies the terminal of carrier scanning through the scanning message, the terminal may obtain the configuration information of the carrier, and the specific process is as follows: the terminal acquires carrier configuration information of a serving base station and carrier set information distributed to the terminal by the serving base station through broadcast information, wherein the carrier configuration information comprises: physical frequency point information and identification of one or more available carriers in a service base station, and configuration information of each available carrier; the terminal acquires carrier configuration information of a neighbor cell base station through neighbor cell broadcast information, wherein the neighbor cell base station means: the carrier configuration information comprises, in a set of base stations adjacent to the serving base station: the physical frequency point information and the identification of one or more available carriers in the neighbor cell base station, and the configuration information of each available carrier.
And, the serving base station may select one or more carriers to be scanned among predetermined carriers, where the predetermined carriers may include at least one of: all fully configured carriers and part or all of all partially configured carriers which are supported by the terminal under the serving base station and are not used by the terminal currently, all fully configured carriers and part or all of partially configured carriers of the neighbor base station, and part or all of carriers in the base station of which the terminal knows the base station identifier.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the scanning may be initiated by the base station or the terminal, and the following describes two different initiation manners:
(mode one) terminal-initiated scanning
The terminal finds that the preset trigger condition is met, the terminal sends a scanning request message to the service base station, and the service base station sends the scanning message to the terminal according to the scanning request message, wherein the scanning message can be regarded as a response message of the scanning request message;
(mode two) initiating scanning by the base station
And the service base station sends a scanning request message to the terminal to trigger the terminal to scan when finding that the preset triggering condition is met.
In the first and second manners, the serving base station needs to first set a predetermined trigger condition, where the predetermined trigger condition includes one of the following: the measured value of the carrier currently used by the terminal is less than or equal to a preset measured value threshold, and the load value of the carrier currently used by the terminal is greater than or equal to a preset load value threshold.
And, for a carrier belonging to the serving base station, the predetermined trigger condition thereof is the same as or different from the predetermined trigger condition of the carrier of other base station (which may be a base station of a cell in the neighbor list of the serving base station); wherein the predetermined trigger condition for scanning the carrier belonging to the serving base station and the predetermined trigger condition for scanning the carrier belonging to the other base station are the same as each other: the predetermined measurement value threshold when scanning the base station is equal to the predetermined measurement value threshold when scanning other base stations, or the predetermined load value threshold when scanning the base station is equal to the predetermined load value threshold when scanning other base stations.
For example, for a carrier belonging to the serving base station, the predetermined trigger condition is set to a predetermined measurement value threshold a and/or a predetermined load value threshold B, and the predetermined trigger condition of the carrier under the other base station may be the same as the trigger condition of the carrier of the serving base station, that is, if the predetermined trigger condition of the other base station is a and/or B, the trigger condition of the other base station is considered to be the same as the trigger condition of the serving base station; furthermore, the predetermined trigger condition of the other base station is different from the predetermined trigger condition of the serving base station if the predetermined measurement value threshold is not a and/or the predetermined load value threshold is not B in the predetermined trigger condition of the other base station.
For the first mode, if the scanning is initiated by the terminal, the terminal needs to pass the parameter information of the scanning that the terminal desires through the scanning request message, and the scanning request message includes at least one of the following information: an identification of a radio frequency channel that the terminal desires to use for scanning, one or more base stations that the terminal desires to scan, a scanning interval that the terminal desires, a non-scanning interval that the terminal desires, a number of repetitions that the terminal desires, a type of scanning that the terminal desires.
For a bitmap of a base station and/or an identifier of the base station that the terminal desires to scan, the terminal may scan one or more carriers by using a radio frequency channel, which specifically includes: the terminal scans partial or all carriers of the base station corresponding to the bitmap of the base station and/or the identification of the base station; and/or the presence of a gas in the gas,
the terminal desires to scan a bitmap of a base station and/or an identifier of the base station, and an identifier of a carrier needing to be scanned under the base station corresponding to the bitmap of the base station and/or the identifier of the base station, and then the terminal scans one or more carriers by using a radio frequency channel includes: and the terminal scans the carrier corresponding to the carrier identifier under the base station corresponding to the bitmap of the base station and/or the identifier of the base station.
For each base station that the terminal requests to scan, the scanning types of all carriers on the base station that the terminal requests are the same or different from each other, for example, the terminal may request to scan in scanning mode 1 on a part of carriers of the base station and scan in scanning mode 2 on another part of carriers of the base station.
It should be noted that, regardless of the first or second manner (i.e., regardless of whether the scanning is initiated by the serving base station or whether the terminal notifies the serving base station of its desired scanning parameters through a scanning message to trigger the scanning), the relevant parameters required by the terminal when performing the scanning are determined by the serving base station, that is, the serving base station may not employ the parameters carried in the scanning request message sent by the terminal.
In addition, in the method, the terminal can perform capability negotiation with the serving base station, and inform the serving base station of the radio frequency channel identifier of the terminal in the capability negotiation process; the service base station stores the mapping information of the identifier of the terminal and the notified radio frequency channel identifier, and the mapping information of the currently working radio frequency channel of the terminal and the currently working carrier wave of the terminal.
After the scanning is finished, the terminal may send the scanning result to the serving base station through the main carrier of the terminal according to the scanning result reporting rule, where the scanning result includes: reporting the mode, reporting the value type and measuring result after the terminal scans one or more carriers; and the service base station selects a target carrier for the terminal according to the scanning result.
Through the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, the terminal can complete scanning on a plurality of carriers of a plurality of base stations in a multi-carrier system, and a reasonable reference value is provided for carrier switching in the base stations and between the base stations of the terminal.
The scan request message or the scan response message in the method according to the present embodiment will be described below with reference to specific examples. Among them, in various message formats described hereinafter, some parameters in the scan request message or the scan response message may not be specified.
Table 1 is an example of a scanning carrier list corresponding to a scanning request message according to the present invention, in this example, a scanning type may be set for each carrier of a neighboring base station, and unrelated scanning is performed on carriers of a serving base station (that is, the scanning type of the carrier of the serving base station is different from the scanning type of the carrier of the neighboring base station, and different carriers in one neighboring base station may correspond to different scanning types). Specifically, a scanning request message of a terminal (single-radio MS) that starts a single channel needs to set a scanning interval, a non-scanning interval, and a repetition number, where the entire scanning duration is a product of a sum of the scanning interval and the non-scanning interval and the repetition number; the scan request message for turning on a multi-channel terminal (multi-radio MS) may not set the non-scan interval and the number of repetitions, and in this case, the entire scan duration is the value of the scan interval.
