As other existing wireless communication systems, this E-UTRA scheme comprise have with a plurality of subscriber equipmenies (typically, portable terminal such as mobile phone hand-held set, PDA etc.) carries out a plurality of wireless base stations of radio communication, i.e. the network of enhancement mode Node B (also be called " eNodeB " or " eNB " and hereinafter will be called " eNB ").Definition residential quarter, base station, each is used in the communication on the limited geographic area in order to allow channel reuse.In the earlier application of the application number GB0700555.6 that we submit on January 11st, 2007 (acting on behalf of reference number J49460GB), described the measurement report in such system, by reference it has been herein incorporated here.Network sends measures control message to subscriber equipment, and which residential quarter is regulation will measure.This measurement that UE makes exhausts the battery electric power of UE, and interval that need be in sending/receiving.
Proposed to utilize family or private network cell to form part wireless communication system and wireless communication system interaction.Produce family or private cell by home (e) node NodeB or the eNodeB of family.Though finally do not finish the details of such eNodeB of family as yet, but (for example be envisioned for, in 3GPP file R4-070339, " Home NodeB/eNodeB deployment scenarios and requirements ") they should be deployed in indoor home environment or the small office environment, such as the family in the single house use, family's use in the multi-storey building, the use of small-sized and large-scale office, exhibition use etc.Therefore they produce low-power consumption, little residential quarter (that is, picocell or bold and unconstrained picocell), only can be used for very little zone.
The region overlapping that usually regional and other residential quarters (comparative examples, " macrocell ") that is covered by such home cell covers., they only can be conducted interviews by the finite subset of subscriber equipment.For example, if dispose home cell in the family, then the subscriber equipment that only is associated with the family residence can use this home cell; If this home cell is on Store Building, then only the subscriber equipment that has of this shop can be visited this home cell, by that analogy.
For those authorized users, the improvement that the use of home cell can be provided in the frequent room area that occurs of user receives.This is of value to other network users equally, because the use of home cell is removed and (unload) burden of flow of the macrocell that comes automatic network.Therefore, expectation can use the subscriber equipment of home cell to do like this.Equally, expect such mechanism, be used for when subscriber equipment is idle, making such subscriber equipment preferentially be registered in the home cell that it can use, and be used for making that when subscriber equipment activates such subscriber equipment is handed over to such home cell.
Simultaneously, the expectation allow the ENB of family or NodeB as much as possible with other network equipment compatibilities.A kind of possibility is to provide home cell in the set of the channel that does not use for network in addition (as, frequency) or channel.
Because home cell will be less relatively, subscriber equipment can be run into a large amount of home cell of uncommitted use.Therefore, available signal strength signal intensity from such residential quarter is made measurement, and be insignificant task to the such measurement of network-reporting, this all can reduce subscriber equipment and is used for the availability of other purposes and produces unnecessary signaling consumption, exhausts network capacity.

Position measurements and the home cell position data that is stored in the memory 25 are compared, if the position of reporting in step S6 is in the home cell intra-zone that defines in the memory, then UE 1a begins the home cell frequency is made channel measurement, and reports this measurement to the eNB 3a of communication with it.
Therefore, in operation, when the UE 1a that can communicate by letter with home cell 102a is among the macrocell 100b, UE 1a by eNB 3b notify its be in home cell 102a roughly near.As shown in Figure 2, if user terminal 102a has GPS unit 39, then it will move as mentioned above when user terminal is near home cell 102a definite and detect, and only set about carrying out and reporting the measurement of that residential quarter at that time.
Therefore, such UE 1a can not waste resource or bandwidth owing to measuring its home cell 102b that can't communicate by letter, but really measures the home cell that it can be communicated by letter.In addition, it does not need to utilize for the measurement clearance that the home cell of inaccessible is measured and interrupts sending or receive.On the other hand, UE comes extending battery life by not using the GPS that measures for fine location, till the approximated position of the home cell 102a that is notified it to be in to license by network.
Therefore, combination rough position definite (by network) determines that to trigger fine location (by UE) has battery and other the resource-effective economy on UE 1a concurrently in the measurement of home cell.
This arrangement also can be used jointly with other UE that lack meticulous location mechanism 39.Under the situation of the UE 1b that licenses home cell 102a, initiate home cell in the time of can working as the measurement control message that receives table 1 and measure.Therefore, in the first embodiment of the present invention, depend on its position measurement ability, depend on UE in response to the action of measuring the execution of control message.
Though preferably be used in combination as mentioned above coarse localization (by network) and meticulous location (by UE) the two, the each side of above-described embodiment can not used in having the meticulous location of UE.For example, because each eNB only needs to be left the required information of those moving body services in its zone, so occur in connect to target eNB in or transfer to target eNB connect in during the context transfer of (generally might pass through last eNB through MME), it is favourable providing the feature of home cell positional information to this eNB.About the position of all home cells and authorization message can to each user concentrated area or partly (local) keep and upgrade, and be provided for eNB when needed.In this case, the position of wherein having carried out the location is less relevant, and for example, eNB can instruct the UE starting position to measure, obtain near the report of its position home cell of indication from UE, and send measurement control message to measure the home cell frequency to UE then.
Second embodiment
In the second embodiment of the present invention, make regulation: when UE attempts determining when given home cell moves whether UE is authorized to visit this home cell.In order to minimize the signaling traffic load on the network, between UE 1a and the eNB of family (though other base stations 3 can provide limited support, such as the transparent transmission of information), directly carry out checking.The operation of this embodiment in the idle pulley of UE and connection mode will be discussed now.
Idle pulley
Fig. 7 is the flow chart that is illustrated in the second embodiment of the present invention in each stage of the subscriber equipment that is in idle pulley of the network portion that forms Fig. 1 and the signaling between the eNB base station.
With reference to figure 7, when following connecting for example, family/privately owned eNB checking UE:
In step S21, when the connection on initiating family/private cell was set up, UE 1a provided security information to the eNB 9a of family based on the information of exchange during initialization/mandate in connection request;
In step S22, the eNB 9a of family uses this security information to verify whether this UE 1a is authorized to visit this family/private cell;
In step S24, eNB accepts to connect foundation and indicates this connection to the UE backhaul signals if UE is authorized to.Otherwise if authentication failed, then the eNB of family 9a refusal connects foundation in step S25, correspondingly to the UE backhaul signals, and abandons Non-Access Stratum (NAS) information that provides.
Connection mode
When UE 1 is connected to eNB 3a and be intended to be handed over to the eNB 9a of family, this process shown in Figure 8.
Fig. 8 illustrates the flow chart of the signaling between the subscriber equipment that is in enable mode, Mobility Management Entity and the eNB base station of the network portion that forms Fig. 1 in a second embodiment.
In step S31, UE the eNB 3a (source eNB) to its current connection in measurement report provide security information, and this security information constitutes the connection request of the transfer that is triggered to family/private cell.
In step S32, in the transfer request of transferring between the preparatory stage network readezvous point ground from source eNB 3a to the eNB 9a of target family (directly or through another node indirectly) transmit receive from UE 1a and verify the required security information of UE.In the message that node works though this information mediates, its be included in " container " thus in this intermediate node only have to transmit this container to next node.So the use of container obtains the transparency, avoids the influence to the intermediate node that does not need message is worked.
In step 33, the eNB 9a of family uses secure data checking UE whether to be authorized to visit this family/private cell by sending signaling with UE;
If UE is authorized in step S33, then the eNB of family 9a accept to connect sets up and thus to source eNB 3a backhaul signals in step S34.Otherwise if authentication failed, then the eNB 9a of target family refusal is transferred to connect and is set up and thus to source eNB 3a backhaul signals in step S35.Then, this transfer is finished by convention.
The 3rd embodiment
In a third embodiment in accordance with the invention, provide a kind of mechanism for the restriction measurement report, thereby UE 1 only reports the measurement of its home cell that is allowed to visit 102.Therefore, resource can not be wasted when UE 1a is in it and is not authorized near the home cell (as 102b) that uses.This embodiment can use with embodiment before, but also can use separately, thereby even UE 1 has carried out the unnecessary measurement of such residential quarter, network capacity can they not be wasted owing to report.
The GSM cellular communication system uses the regular reporting by the cell measurement of UE, and still, in the E-UTRA system, in order to reduce the measurement signaling traffic load, measurement report is event driven, thereby just only reports measurement when particular event takes place when UE detects.Below be the tabulation of such event-driven message:
The Primary Common Pilot Channel of event 1a-and cell association (CPICH) enters reporting range;
It is better than activating main CPICH that the main CPICH of the non-activation of event 1c-becomes;
The change of event 1d-best cell;
Event 1f-master CPICH becomes more worse than absolute threshold;
Even only measure when UE 1 carries out during near addressable family/private cell, as the third embodiment of the present invention, its also may since addressable family/private cell (as, have 102a) other a large amount of inaccessibles family/private cell (as, trigger measurement report 102b) and continually.These reports of great majority are otiose, and network is no stomach for known the residential quarter of UE from the cell change of an inaccessible to another residential quarter inaccessible.
Therefore, the measurement event that third embodiment of the present invention definition is new, it comprises the reference of the fact that UE has been checked the accessibility of residential quarter.Its data that can visit of which home cell of UE storage indication.As knowing, each home cell sends tracing area ID (TA-ID).Check the TA-ID that sends by the TA-ID about addressable home cell with respect to its storage, whether UE is can check measurement relevant with addressable home cell.
New measurement event is defined as " best cell on the frequency is addressable " and " best cell on the frequency is inaccessible ".
The method of a third embodiment in accordance with the invention will be described with reference to figure 9,10A and 10B.
Fig. 9 is the flow chart that is illustrated in the third embodiment of the present invention in each stage of the subscriber equipment of the network portion that forms Fig. 1 and the signaling between the eNB base station.Figure 10 A is the flow chart that is illustrated in the process of carrying out at the eNB place in the third embodiment of the present invention, and Figure 10 B is the flow chart that is illustrated in the process of carrying out at the subscriber equipment place in the third embodiment of the present invention.
At first, network is carried out above about the described step S2 of first embodiment.When UE 1a was detected as near home cell, in step S41, network determined whether make UE verify the accessibility of home cell.
In step S41, it initiates to measure control message when network wishes to set up, revise or discharge the measurement of the neighbor cell that will be carried out by UE.The measurement control message of a third embodiment in accordance with the invention is as shown in table 3.It is to send from the eNB of the current registration of UE.
Table 3
More specifically, this measures control message:
Indication UE reply is used for the applied new configuration of frequency measurement of family/private cell; And
Comprise that UE should verify the indication (shown in italics in the table 3) of the accessibility of residential quarter before the relevant event of report.
In step S43, UE receive to measure control message, and the configuration that checking comprises in measuring control message is and if it receives this configuration then its return measurement in step S44 is finished message.This response message can have and the as above same format shown in the table 2.Message shown in each figure can be transmitted and any specific use of the channel that do not need to be associated via shared channel.
Do not comprise that in message under the situation of the requirement of verifying the residential quarter, UE operates as traditional UE, report current measurement message to the definition of (E-) UTRA network.
Really comprise under the situation of the requirement of the accessibility of verifying the residential quarter that in message before the relevant event of report UE revises its behavior to use additional events.
To most of events, as the example shows, the behavior that causes is flat-footed.
Reporting event 1A: main CPICH enters reporting range.UE verifies whether this residential quarter is addressable before being reported in the residential quarter of paying close attention on the frequency.If not, then do not report this event.In other words, this event becomes:
Reporting event 1A
*: the main CPICH of addressable residential quarter enters reporting range.
Reporting event 1B: main CPICH leaves reporting range.Again, UE should be only to addressable cell report 1B.Generally (although not being general), this will be with the residential quarter of reporting event 1A be corresponding before.Thereby, replacedly, can stipulate UE should be only to trigger event 1A before
*The residential quarter report., first selection can be more flexible slightly.
Reporting event 1B
*: the main CPICH of addressable residential quarter leaves reporting range.
Reporting event 1D: the change of best cell.For this event, as previously mentioned, there are two interested situations.
Event 1D
*: addressable residential quarter becomes the best cell on the frequency.
Event 1D
*: the inaccessible residential quarter becomes the best cell on the frequency.
First situation in these can trigger transfer, and second situation should not trigger.
Therefore, in the third embodiment of the present invention, UE monitors a plurality of residential quarters by measuring.During one of event that in step 44, defines for (E-) UTRA network when its residential quarter triggering of having made measurement, in step 45, UE determines that in each case it is addressable to this residential quarter and determines in step S6 whether it is addressable to be used for communication.As the result who determines among the step S6, when determining that it is not addressable when being used for communication, in most applications, in step S46, UE avoids reporting the event corresponding with cell measurement.As the result who determines among the step S6, when determining that it is addressable when being used for communication, in step S47, it is reported to eNB3.In this case, UE reports on the implementation when cell measurement satisfies one of criterion of above modification only.
Above example is illustrated in this case, and not only UE 1 need do the accessibility inspection, also needs some specifically rules.For example, at event 1D
*Situation in, UE 1 must consider the residential quarter of inaccessible, change with the best cell of report from addressable residential quarter to the inaccessible residential quarter, though it seems to there is no need to report the sign that becomes best inaccessible residential quarter, there is no need perhaps to report that any of best cell from an inaccessible home cell to another inaccessible home cell continuously changes.
Various modifications, change and replacement will be obvious for the skilled person.For example, can understand the travelling carriage that terms user equipment (UE) can contain any kind that comprises cellular telephone, cordless telephone and PDA(Personal Digital Assistant), or fixed station.The term base station can be contained any ground, aerial or track honeycomb repeater equally.
For illustrative purposes, in the context of UTRA scheme (that is HSPA scheme) and the embodiments of the invention that used associated term description.Can understand also and can realize the present invention with wireless (as, radio) communication plan of other types.Generally, wireless communication system will comprise the Radio Access Network that comprises a plurality of base stations, and Radio Link and mobile communications are used in the base station.
Though preferred independent frequency is used for home cell, each aspect of the present invention will not considered to distribute to the frequency of home cell or channel and operate.
Except GPS, UE can be equipped with other meticulous positioning measurment systems, such as based on those of the residential quarter triangulation of the signal that comes free eNB broadcasting, perhaps any other suitable navigation system.
Measure control message and can comprise a plurality of " measuring command ", that is, and the modification of the foundation of a measurement, the release of another measurement and/or the 3rd measurement.
Similarly, measure the measurement that configuration can comprise several other types, as measuring the UE internal measurement in the frequency.
Though above the 3rd embodiment utilization is based on the report of event, the principle of similitude can be applied to the periodic measurement report as GSM.
Though above the 3rd embodiment utilizes tracing area to be used for the accessibility inspection, can use any other broadcast singal or the signal characteristic of home cell.UE can store the tabulation of inaccessible home cell but not the tabulation of storing accessive home cell.
The present invention can realize by changing the software routines that is realized by existing hardware.So, the present invention also expands to the computer program that is suitable for the present invention is committed to practice, especially on the carrier wave or in computer program.Program can be source code, object code, such as partly for the code in the middle of source code and the object code of being in of compiling form, perhaps be suitable for any other form of in realizing according to process of the present invention, using.
