Description

Peripheral base station information updating method, mobile communication system, travelling carriage and base station

The application in the Chinese patent application of on June 14th, 2000 application number is dividing an application of 00801447.7 patent application (PCT/JP00/03868) for same applicant.

Technical field

The present invention relates to peripheral base station information updating method, mobile communication system, travelling carriage and base station.More specifically, the present invention relates to, for example, a plurality of base stations with emission pilot channel and peripheral base station information and receive peripheral base station information and according to this peripheral base station information search, receive peripheral base station information updating method in the mobile communication system of travelling carriage of pilot channel etc.

Background technology

In the such mobile communication system of the portable phone of popularizing now, come service implementation by whole coverage being divided into the smaller radio section that is called the sub-district.Such system for example as shown in Figure 1, is made of topped travelling carriage 112-1～111-3 of cutting apart a plurality of base station 111-1～111-5 of the radio section that obtains and communicating by setting wireless radio channel between the 111-1～111-5 of these base stations.

As the main connecting mode between base station and the travelling carriage, there is frequency division multiple access to connect (Frequency Division Mul joint le Access:FDMA), time division multiple access connects (Time Division Mul joint le Access:TDMA) and code division multiple access connects (CodeDivision Mul joint le Access:CDMA).No matter in the sort of mode, each base station can make travelling carriage discern the channel of the base station that connect.Here, such channel is called pilot channel.In FDMA mode and T dma mode, the pilot channel of each base station uses different radio frequencies, and travelling carriage is discerned each base station according to radio frequency.On the other hand, directly expansion (DS)-CDMA comes transmission information by the secondary modulation of the existing information data modulated signal being expanded with the spreading code of two-forty, the mode that the multidigit user can be communicated with same radio bands.Can discern every user's communications ripple according to the spreading code of distributing to every user.

Yet the electric wave of launching with certain transmitting power from the base station arrives acceptance point after standing simultaneously to decay by spatial transmission.Because the attenuation that electric wave stands has the distance of launch point and acceptance point just big more this character far away more, so basically when receiving, weak incoming level is arranged and strong incoming level is arranged from the pilot channel of near base station from the pilot channel of base station far away.In the reality because the size of propagation loss not only with distance dependent, also different and different along with the situation of landform and building etc. are so along with the moving of travelling carriage, have very big change from the incoming level of the pilot channel of each base station.In order to receive the signal from base station with better quality, travelling carriage often monitors the pilot channel from each base station, and it is important selecting best base station.From the incoming level of the pilot channel of each base station often in the situation of change, reaching the above pilot channel of desired incoming level can often take place alternately, also sharply reduce and become and to receive up to now at the incoming level of the pilot channel that receives, on the contrary, the incoming level of the pilot channel that can't receive up to now sharply raises and becomes and can receive.Even if in this situation,, usually in mobile communication system, adopt the information of the pilot channel that will use about peripheral base station from communication network one side to notify the method for travelling carriage for travelling carriage can be followed the tracks of best pilot channel.About the information of peripheral base station, in FDMA and tdma system, be the radio frequency etc. of pilot channel, and in cdma system, be the information relevant with its phase place etc. with the spreading code that is using.In this method, system operator will be ready to the information of peripheral base station, and they are stored in each base station in advance is very necessary.Can be with the information on the map apart from artificially decision peripheral base station, also can decide the information of peripheral base station with software according to the digital simulation actual propagation environment of landform and building.

But in existent method, because correctly the actual communication environments of prediction is difficult, so preprepared peripheral base station information is unaccommodated, perhaps, the problem of building and change of topography etc. can not be promptly followed the tracks of in existence.When peripheral base station information is not suitable for, exist to produce Handoff Control in the mobile communications and waiting sub-district transfer processing are caused obstacle, cut off conversation or the defective of very disadvantageous significant problem for the mobile communication service that can not receiving inputted signal etc. midway.

Again, directly expansion (DS)-CDMA comes transmission information by the secondary modulation of the existing information data modulated signal being expanded with the spreading code of two-forty, the mode that the multidigit user can be communicated with same radio bands can be discerned every correspondent according to the spreading code of distributing to every user.Therefore, on receiver, carry out existing demodulation process before, at first must make it be returned to original narrow-band signal by the process of wide band receiving inputted signal being carried out contrary expansion.When this receiver carries out contrary expansion, carry out received signal and and the phase locked spreading code duplicate of spreading code of received signal between coherent detection.Especially, we will communicate by letter and be called the initial stage (IntitialAcquisition) synchronously synchronously between the spreading code phase place of the duplicate of spreading code of when beginning receiver and received signal.

Synchronous method of the initial stage of general spreading code is to multiply each other with received signal with at recipient's expansion duplicate code, calculates the correlation of two signals by certain time integral.To this relevant square-law detection that carries out amplitude of exporting, by judging whether output surpasses threshold value and judge synchronously whether establish.When coherent detection, the useful method of carrying out the sliding correlation detector of time integral and carrying out the matched filter of space integral, but because matched filter gets up to constitute with a plurality of sliding correlation detectors side by side, thereby by change the duplicate of the spreading code of each tap according to spreading code, can instantaneously obtain the correlation on a plurality of joints, so very high speed is relatively arranged with situation with sliding correlation detector, but circuit scale and current sinking and relatively become greatly on the contrary, with the situation of sliding correlation detector.

Now people research and develop and standardization the broadband DS-CDMA mode (being designated hereinafter simply as the W-CDMA mode) of extending bandwidth more than 5MHz as the candidate of the next generation mobile communication mode that is called IMT-2000.This W-CDMA mode is the asynchronous system that carries out work between the base station on time reference independently.

In Figure 13, represented the sample attitude (" SF " in Figure 13 is the simple expression of spreading factor (SpreadingFactor)) of the spreading code apportion design in the down link of asynchronous system and synchro system between the base station.Propose by the U.S. and W-CDMA equally as cdma 2000 modes of the candidate of IMT-2000 or IS-95 in GPS (global positioning system) realize between the base station synchronously.

So, in this inter-base station synchronizing system, because all there is common time reference all base stations, so in each base station, can use identical spreading code by giving the different delay in each base station.In this inter-base station synchronizing system, it is synchronous that the initial stage can only be carried out the timing of spreading code synchronously.On the other hand, between the base station in the asynchronous system, because can not there be common time reference each base station, so each base station is discerned with different long code (perhaps on the meaning that will become interference from the signal of other sub-districts it being called the scrambling code).During the travelling carriage energized,, must set up from the long code of the common control channel of down link of this cell site synchronous for the base station (cell site) that connects the received signal power maximum.On the meaning of searching for the cell site that is connected with radio channel, it is called Cell searching.In the asynchronous system, travelling carriage must be to carrying out Cell searching by all long codes of system's decision between the base station.On the other hand, in inter-base station synchronizing system, because long code has only one type, so can easily infer, and asynchronous system relatively can carry out Cell searching between the base station in the extremely short time, can realize that promptly the long code of the common control channel of down link is synchronous.

It is to make the Cell searching in the asynchronous system between above-mentioned base station (long code of the common control channel of down link is synchronous) realize method with the comparable high speed of inter-base station synchronizing system with footwork that the international patent publication WO 97/33400 relevant with the applicant's application, Japan put down into spreading code that patent 11-196460 number of announcing in 11 years go up record.Promptly, the same footwork of this spreading code, as shown in figure 14, be used in short code common in repetition period all base stations identical and pilot channel (channel that travelling carriage was connected with radio link at the communication initial stage) carried out dual expansion for the different long code in each base station with symbol period, long code expansion is sheltered (promptly with certain cycle, masked part is not carried out long code expansion), produce the part only expanded (the following symbol that we will only expand with this common short code be called shelter symbol) with short code.Because short code is common to each base station, so travelling carriage at first, common short code is asked correlation as spreading code duplicate with matched filter, and can with the kind of long code detection peak in the reception regularly of the short code expansion of received signal irrespectively.Shelter symbol timing by basis, store the time of this correlation peak, the timing that also can establish long code is synchronous, the kind of the long code of the received signal of identification expansion after this, this spreading code that can obtain by short code and long code are multiplied each other is as the duplicate code, in the timing that has obtained, detect correlation, carry out threshold determination.Like this, by the three stage high speed Cell searching methods of sheltering, even if between the base station, also can realize Cell searching at a high speed in the asynchronous system with long code.

About standard specification, carrying out the planning of 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Proiect (the joint venture plan of the third generation)) and formulating as the IMT-2000 (InternationalMobile Telecommunication-2000 (international mobile telecommunication-2000)) of the mobile communication system of the third generation.About send out the formation of each channel from the base station for the system synchronization of non-synchronously using between travelling carriage and base station, in standard " 3G TS25.211 V3.2.0 " and " 3G TS 25.213 " etc., detailed record is arranged.In order to improve applicability biglyyer, implement some changes from " Specification of Air-Interface for 3G Mobile SystemVolume 3 (for the explanation of the air interface of 3G mobile system, volume 3) ".That is during, to travelling carriage and system synchronous as the PSCH (Primary Synvhronization Channel (primary synchronization channel)) of the channel of initial searches and be used for for discern as to the SSCH (Secondary Synchronization Channel (secondary synchronizing channel)) of the spreading code group of the different macrocyclic spreading code in each base station as separately independently physical channel carry out standardization.; changed the physics formation although it is so; but travelling carriage at first begins synchronizing process with system with PSCH, discerns macrocyclic spreading code group with SSCH then, discern the process of long period spreading code and its timing at last and the effect that obtains by this process constant fully.In this manual, for convenience's sake, often quote " Specification of Air-Interface for 3G MobileSystem Volume 3 (for the air interface of 3G mobile system; volume 3) " and describe, but about being identical to the applicability of 3GPP standard and its effect.

More than, about stating, being accompanied by travelling carriage the moving in cell system of ongoing communication at the synchronous Cell searching of the travelling carriage at initial stage, received power becomes maximum, and promptly the cell site that is connected with radio link changes.For the switching (soft handover) of carrying out this cell site, receiver must be synchronous by the spreading code of setting up downlink termly, measures the incoming level in the peripheral cell place of the cell site in the communication.In the Cell searching when this soft handover because from the cell site of present ongoing communication will around the kind notice travelling carriage of long code of cell site, so Cell searching time relatively having shortened during with initial stage synchronously.

Further, travelling carriage also carries out Cell searching termly when waiting for reception, so that search the cell site that connects when the starting communication channel.In this case, because when entering the communication of waiting for before receiving, by control channel from the cell site of present ongoing communication will around the kind notice travelling carriage of long code of cell site, so Cell searching time relatively having shortened during with initial stage synchronously.

In inter-base station synchronizing system, the kind of long code as described above has only a kind of, so each cell site is come all long codes by making the long code time shifting regular hour (certain number of chips of long code).Thereby in inter-base station synchronizing system, when the Cell searching when waiting for reception, the cell site of ongoing communication before entering the wait accepting state, in Cell searching during soft handover, long code phase place for the pilot channel of the cell site of present ongoing communication, can be only with displacement the long code phase place of regular hour (certain number of chips) be to search in the scope of search window at center, make Cell searching at short notice become possibility.Here so-called search window is when the hunting zone of considering from the propagation delay time of each cell site.

Yet, between above-mentioned base station in the asynchronous system, because in the Cell searching when waiting for reception, enter the long code phase place of the pilot channel of the cell site of waiting for the preceding ongoing communication of accepting state, with the long code phase place of the pilot channel of the cell site of ongoing communication now in the Cell searching when the soft handover, and the long code phase place of cell site on every side is without any relation, so, for example, the triphasic Cell searching method that must use the long code in the aforesaid basically synchronous initial model to shelter, compare with synchro system, need the long Cell searching time.So asynchronous system and synchro system relatively exist special and wait for that travelling carriage must make demodulator circuit carry out work for a long time in the time of reception between the base station, make the power consumption of mobile station terminal increase such shortcoming.

Summary of the invention

Therefore, the objective of the invention is suitably to upgrade, set the information of the peripheral base station of notifying to travelling carriage from each base station.

Again, another object of the present invention is between the base station in the asynchronous system, realizes the high speed Cell searching of travelling carriage when waiting for when receiving and entering soft handoff mode.

Main idea of the present invention is by the signal of travelling carriage reception from a plurality of base station, to obtain the base station information of the base station that can receive on travelling carriage, with this information informing base station of obtaining.Such as already explained, the transmission environment of prediction reality correctly is very difficult.Because (for example according to the base station information that observes at travelling carriage, by the high-speed spreading code higher signal extension is arrived broadband than information rate, base station and travelling carriage communicate mutually, carry out dual expansion using, transmit the number of the 2nd spreading code in the system of signal or the number and the phase information of the 2nd spreading code to common the 1st spreading code group in all base stations that the repetition period identical with the information symbol cycle arranged with to the 2nd different spreading code of each base station that the repetition period longer than the information symbol cycle arranged.Perhaps, the radio frequency of pilot channel), the peripheral base station information that the renewal base station is keeping (for example, by the high-speed spreading code higher signal extension is arrived broadband than information rate, base station and travelling carriage communicate mutually, the 1st common spreading code group of all base stations of the repetition period identical with the information symbol cycle is arranged and the 2nd different spreading code of each base station that the repetition period longer than the information symbol cycle arranged is carried out dual expansion in use, transmit the number of the 2nd spreading code in the system of signal or the number and the phase information of the 2nd spreading code.Perhaps, the radio frequency of pilot channel) constitute like that, so can play by the effect of slice-of-life transmission environment correctly of peripheral base station information.

Fig. 2 represents distance that goes up according to the map etc., the figure of the example of the sphere of action of each base station of expection.We judge the peripheral base station information as base station BS 1 among the figure, note about base station BS 2, and BS3, the information of BS4 and BS5 is just enough, and this represents by add underscore below the mark of these base stations.

, in the transmission environment of reality, the such sphere of action of Fig. 3 is arranged.The travelling carriage that carries out from base station BS 1 to base station BS 6 handover is cut off in the conversation way so can not carry out handover because do not have and will be recorded in about the information of base station BS 6 the peripheral base station information of base station BS 1.

But, in the present invention, because, the borderline travelling carriage that is positioned at BS1 and BS6 can be able to be received from this fact of each signal of base station and report, so play a part to make the handover from BS1 to BS6 to become possible (Fig. 4) to the base station by the slice-of-life transmission environment.In addition, in Fig. 2～Fig. 4, represent the sphere of action measured, the round situation that do not become of reality is illustrated as an example with circle, but these figure difference between expression expection and the reality only, and the sphere of action of expection is circle not necessarily.

Further, if measure the 2nd spreading code and phase information together and constitute like that to base station report, then can play when searching for new sub-district for handover, realize Cell searching (search of the pilot channel of base station) at a high speed and the very little effect (Fig. 4) of electric power of consumption with phase information.Here, phase information is the information of the phase difference of the 2nd spreading code that using of expression the 2nd spreading code that using of base station itself and peripheral base station, travelling carriage is according to the phase place of the 2nd spreading code of this information and the base station that captures now, the base station around can searching at high speed.

Again, if the base station is according to the number of packages of report peripheral base station information and the success rate of handover, the number of success of handover distributes priority level to constitute like that, then play the pilot channel that makes travelling carriage can receive and expect with higher preference for probability ground search, and the effect that Cell searching required time and electric power are diminished.

Embodiment

Below, we explain with reference to all figure and are used for implementing by optimal morphology of the present invention.

(first example)

The mobile communication system relevant with first example of the present invention has the base station of a plurality of emission pilot channels and peripheral base station information, receives above-mentioned peripheral base station information, according to this peripheral base station information search, receives the travelling carriage of pilot channel.The base station relevant with this example comprises peripheral base station information, i.e. the information of pilot channel of the peripheral base station of this base station etc., and it is transmitted at pilot channel.

The present invention and radio access way are irrelevant can be suitable for, but uses the CDMA mode as the radio access way in the mobile communication system relevant with this example.The spreading code that is used to expand is by to common the 1st spreading code group in all base stations that the repetition period identical with symbol period arranged and constituting two types spreading code of the 2nd different spreading code of each base station that the repetition period longer than the information symbol cycle arranged.

Fig. 5 is the concept map (at Fig. 5, " SF " is the simple expression of spreading factor (Spreading Factor)) of using method that is used for illustrating the spreading code of the mobile communication system relevant with first example of the present invention.In figure, the layer of the macrocyclic scrambling code of having of each base station is distributed in the layer expression of epimere, the common layer that short-period scrambling code is arranged that uses in base station that the layer expression of hypomere is all.Can discern the signal that sends from each base station with the macrocyclic scrambling code of distributing to each base station.

Fig. 6 be expression about the travelling carriage relevant with this example receive from each signal of base station, the ideograph of the timing relationship of scrambling code.The mobile communication system relevant with this example is the asynchronous mobile communication system that not necessarily needs synchronization among base stations, and the timing of the scrambling code that travelling carriage receives all is different for each base station.

Fig. 7 is the figure of the configuration example of the expression travelling carriage relevant with this example.In the drawings, only express the formation of the part relevant with the present invention.The travelling carriage relevant with this example has travelling carriage sending and receiving apparatus 720, user interface 722, antenna 724, base station information report treatment circuit 726, common control circuit 728, Cell searching control circuit 730, base station information is obtained treatment circuit 732, memory 734 and bus 736.The travelling carriage relevant with this example receives the pilot channel of base station by search, the base station that decision communicated or waited for reception.

Travelling carriage emitter 720 is to be used for the user profile and the control signal of the modulation of the process wireless points that sends out from the base station are carried out demodulation, subscriber signal and control signal is carried out the device that sends after the encode modulation.Travelling carriage sending and receiving apparatus 720 is connected with user interface 722 with antenna 724 respectively.Common control circuit 728 is circuit of implementing whole controls of travelling carriage.Cell searching control circuit 730 is circuit of regularly controlling Cell searching work according to the priority level control of peripheral base station information simultaneously.Again in other circuit, in order to utilize the result of Cell searching again, Cell searching control circuit 730 carries out the Cell searching result is stored in work in the memory 734.It is with the Cell searching result who is stored in the memory 734 that base station information is obtained treatment circuit 732, makes the scrambling code information of base station and the circuit of phase information.Base station information report treatment circuit 726 is for the base station information that will make reports to the base station travelling carriage sending and receiving apparatus 720 to be sent this information instruction of emission.Common control circuit 728, Cell searching control circuit 730, base station information are obtained treatment circuit 732, and base station information report treatment circuit 726 and memory 734 are connected with each other by bus 736.

Fig. 8 is the figure that is used to illustrate the configuration example of the pilot channel relevant with this example.Below, we illustrate the work by the Cell searching of Cell searching control circuit 730 controls.Pilot channel is to obtain the system information that makes system synchronization when the travelling carriage energized, detect the channel that the travelling carriage in waiting for reception neutralization communication uses when move other base station, each base station is gone up constant transmitting power with the time and is launched at least one pilot channel.With the high-speed spreading code higher pilot channel is expanded to broadband than information rate.With the common scrambling code scrambling code different that uses in all base stations that the repetition period identical with symbol period arranged pilot channel is carried out dual expansion with each base station again.In each certain cycle the scrambling code that is used for the pilot channel expansion is sheltered, without the masked interval of scrambling code expansion, only with the masked interval of spreading code expansion.This part is called shelters symbol.The spreading code that is used for pilot channel all is common in all base stations.Travelling carriage spreading code that this is common calculates correlation as the duplicate of spreading code with matched filter, and with irrelevant with which scrambling code, the reception of the expansion of spreading code that can enough received signals regularly detects correlation peak.Store each time according to the symbol timing of sheltering from this correlation peak, the timing of establishing the scrambling code is synchronous.Then, can discern the number of the scrambling code of expansion received signal.This spreading code that can obtain by spreading code and scrambling code are multiplied each other detects correlation as the duplicate code in the timing that has obtained, carry out threshold determination, judges whether the pilot channel that receives is using its scrambling code.Handle by repeat this for possible scrambling code, can discern the scrambling code that the pilot channel of reception is using.Detailed content about the Cell searching method, at Higuchi, Sawahashi, Adachi, " Fast Cell Search Algorithm inInter-Cell Asynchronous DS-CDMA Mobile Radio ", IEICETrans.Commun., Vol.E81-B, No.7 has done detailed explanation among the July 1998.As a result, by such work, can obtain base station information.That is, can obtain the number and the phase information of the scrambling code of the pilot channel that travelling carriage can receive.Represented that in Fig. 9 travelling carriage obtains the information of base station, reported to the base station that just is being connected, at the image of base station lastest imformation with travelling carriage.

In this example, the 2nd spreading code number of being used by the base station and the phase information of this code constitute base station information.By using base station information, can realize Cell searching at a high speed and the electric power that consumes is very little.But the number of the 2nd spreading code of also can be only being used by the base station constitutes base station information.Again, also can be with base station information as the phase information that in second example, illustrates.Again, can enough FDMA modes and the TDMA mode as the radio access way, constitute base station information by the radio frequency of pilot channel.

Travelling carriage is transmitted to the base station with base station information.When obtaining the base station information of BS6 again as illustrated in fig. 4, for example the base station information with BS6 is transmitted to BS1.Further, also the base station information of BS1 can be transmitted to BS6.Travelling carriage can directly carry out the base station information emission to BS6, also can be undertaken by BS1.The base station of the base station information of receiving mobile emission is according to this base station information updating peripheral base station information.

The assignment priority level on the base station information around in the base station.

Figure 10 is the figure of the state transition when representing according to report number of packages assignment grade.The travelling carriage that the base station was visited peripheral base station information notice (being transmitted to) in each fixing cycle.When travelling carriage receives the report of base station information, extract base station information, upgrade the report number of packages of each base station.Then, by the report number of packages from many to few order, promptly by the number of a plurality of base stations that comprise in the base station information from how to replace peripheral base station information to few sequence arrangement ground.

Figure 11 is the figure of the state transition example of expression during according to the success rate of handover or handover number of success assignment grade.The travelling carriage that the base station was visited the information notice (being transmitted to) of peripheral base station in each fixing cycle.When travelling carriage receives the report of base station information, extract base station information, upgrade the report number of packages of each base station.Again, when handover takes place, obtain handover destination and its result, arrange ground and replace peripheral base station information.At this moment, the success that can be by obtaining handover or the result of failure calculate the success rate of handover, press the success rate sequence arrangement ground, base station from high to low of handover and replace peripheral base station information.Again, can be by obtaining the number of success of handover, how the number of success of pressing handover is from replacing peripheral base station information to few sequence arrangement ground, base station.

When peripheral base station information assignment grade was given in the base station, the information of a top N base station (N is the constant that is predetermined) of peripheral base station information can be launched in the base station.

On the other hand, travelling carriage, when the peripheral base station information of grade that received assignment, can be for the high high-frequency ground, base station of grade, the base station low frequency ground low for grade carries out the search of pilot channel.

Figure 12 be expression according to the priority level of coming each base station of assignment from the peripheral base station information of base station notice, the figure of the example of used table of grading when changing the search rate of pilot channel.With the peripheral base station information that obtains from the base station with in advance in the ready correspondence table of travelling carriage, determine the pilot search frequency of each base station.That is, about according to the assignment of peripheral base station information the base station of grade, in the search cycle corresponding, search for the pilot channel of this base station with its grade in the correspondence table.

In Figure 12, illustrated for each priority level and made the search rate difference, but this is necessary condition not necessarily, for example, can consider priority level is divided into first half and latter half of, a high-frequency frequency is applicable to the situation that belongs to first half, and a low-frequency frequency is applicable to various other the methods of situation of belonging to latter half of etc.Which method in these methods that don't work all is for the high frequency of the high base station sets of priority level, for the low frequency of the low base station sets of priority level, and identical effect is arranged.Again, we have illustrated the relation that is predetermined priority level and frequency and have been stored in the travelling carriage, but this neither be in order suitably to use necessary condition of the present invention.Other for example also considers to notify termly from the base station method of this information and by the various methodologies of user's determining method, but which method in these methods that don't work can both obtain identical effect.

If, then can suitably upgrade, set from the base station to the peripheral base station information of travelling carriage notice according to as above the present invention of explanation.

If measure the 2nd spreading code and phase information together and, then can carry out Cell searching at a high speed and the electric power that consumes is very little to the base station report again.

Further, if peripheral base station information is given with the priority level assignment in the base station, Cell searching required time and electric power are diminished.

(second example)

We will state the details of second example in the back, but there are storage device that the long code phase information that passes through the uplink control channel notice from travelling carriage is stored and the management devices that the long code phase information that is stored in this storage device is managed in the base station as second example of the present invention.Management devices has notifies the function of travelling carriage with being stored in long code phase information notice in the storage device as the function of the radio network controller (RNC:Radio Network Controller) of the control desk (high-grade) of control base station and the information that will be stored in the necessity in the long code phase information in the storage device.Storage device is that the control device of computer of having usually by the base station etc. is realized, again, can carry out two above-mentioned functions by control device.

Again, can there be storage the base station from the storage device of the long code phase information of control desk notice and the management devices that the long code phase information that is stored in this storage device is managed.Management devices has the function of the information notice travelling carriage of the necessity in the long code phase information that will be stored in the storage device.Storage device is that the control device of computer of having usually by the base station etc. is realized, again, can carry out two above-mentioned functions by control device.

Control desk as second example of the present invention has the storage device of the long code phase information of storing each base station notice and the management devices that the long code phase information that is stored in this storage device is managed.Management devices has the information of the necessity in the long code phase information that will be stored in this storage device to notify the function of each base station.Storage device is that the control device of computer of having usually by the base station etc. is realized, again, can carry out above-mentioned function by control device.

As the travelling carriage of this example the function of calculating the long code phase information and Cell searching function are as hereinafter described arranged.Calculate the function of long code phase information, for example at Volume 3, " Specification of Air-Interface for 3G Mobile SystemVer.1.0 ", Association of Radio Industries and Businesses (ARIB) Jan.14 has detailed record in 1999.

Figure 15 is illustrated in this example, the figure of an example of the process during storage long code phase information.

Consider that travelling carriage 1 carries out the situation of the soft handover (SHO) from base station A to base station B.Travelling carriage 1 is measured poor between the long code phase place of pilot channel of base station B of the long code phase place of pilot channel of base station A in handover source and handover destination when soft handover, with the long code phase information the measured base station A by control channel notice handover source.

Base station A, obtain by control channel and when each travelling carriage with this base station A ongoing communication carries out soft handover, to measure, the long code phase place of the pilot channel of the base station A in handover source and the base station of handover destination (base station B in Figure 15, C, poor between the long code phase place of pilot channel any one among the D), be the long code phase information, and it is stored in the storage device.Other each base station (base station B in Figure 15, C, D) similarly, obtain by control channel and when each travelling carriage with this base station ongoing communication carries out soft handover, to measure, poor between the long code phase place of the pilot channel of the long code phase place of the pilot channel of the base station in handover source and the base station of handover destination, be the long code phase information, and it is stored in the storage device.

So, all base stations will by and the travelling carriage of this base station ongoing communication carry out poor between the long code phase place of pilot channel of the long code phase place of pilot channel of the base station that soft handover transfers and this base station, that is, the long code phase information is stored in the storage device.In addition, for example, as a plurality of by communicating, after this with base station A dedicated radio link, during the soft again travelling carriage that is handed over to base station B, the phase difference between the long code phase place of the pilot channel of two base stations and travelling carriage the different and different of the relevant because propagation delay that causes that locate.So, at base station A by the phase difference between the long code phase place of the pilot channel of the base station A of a plurality of travelling carriages notice and base station B is averaged, can access the average phase-difference information between the long code phase place of pilot channel of base station A and base station B, that is, and average long code phase information.For example, when sending the notice of the phase information between the long code phase place of pilot channel of base station A and base station B, each travelling carriage can upgrade this average long code phase information.The long code phase information of each base station around base station A upgrades like this.Further, each base station will store like this by cable network etc. and peripheral base station between long code phase information notice control desk (radio network controller RNC).Then, each base station can obtain and for the long code phase information between the peripheral base station of each base station from control desk by cable network etc.Again, in case of necessity, base station or control desk are stored in information in the storage device like that according to above-mentioned, from present this time point in the regular hour scope in past, and each travelling carriage of ongoing communication between the base station, corresponding with the number of times that each base station around this base station is carried out new handover, can set up the above-mentioned grade of each base station on every side.

Figure 16 is the figure of an example of the admin table in the storage device that is illustrated in base station or the control desk, in table, (1101001100........) in the long code hurdle of peripheral base station is the long code of peripheral base station (being assumed to base station B), and the Δ 1 on long code phase information hurdle is the measured value (value that travelling carriage is measured) of the long code phase difference between base station (being assumed to base station A) and certain base station (being assumed to base station B).

Figure 17 is illustrated in this example, the figure of an example of the sample attitude from the base station when travelling carriage notice long code phase information.

By being connected of radio link and base station A, after this enter when waiting for receiving mode with the travelling carriage 2 of this base station A ongoing communication or soft when being handed over to other base station, from base station A, the relative phase (time of delay) for the long code of this base station A of the pilot channel of the peripheral base station that (above-mentioned be stored in the storage device like that) that base station A is had is all, i.e. long code phase information notice travelling carriage.

So, when travelling carriage 2 is in when waiting for receiving mode, travelling carriage 2 can have the long code phase information of pilot channel of base station A of last and travelling carriage ongoing communication and base station A the relative phase of down link long code to be notified to the long code phase information of pilot channel of their N peripheral base station.Therefore, when travelling carriage 2 was in the wait receiving mode, travelling carriage can be for the long code phase place of the pilot channel that is notified to this N peripheral base station, in the scope of search window, the long code of carrying out pilot channel synchronously and the detection of incoming level, thereby can in the time of extremely lacking, carry out Cell searching.

When the peripheral base station when entering soft handoff mode carries out Cell searching, similarly travelling carriage also can be searched for by the relative phase that is notified to the down link long code of peripheral base station for the source base station of handover in the scope of search window, and the long code of carrying out peripheral base station in the extremely short time synchronously and the detection of incoming level.

Because the long code phase information of the base station of notice ongoing communication when this wait for to receive and N base station of peripheral base station and during at soft handover peripheral base station this part thing of long code phase information and in inter-base station synchronizing system long code carry out time shifting in certain cycle, travelling carriage knows that this part thing of long code phase bit timing in the cycle that each is certain is of equal value, so can realize the high-speed search that almost equates with inter-base station synchronizing system in waiting for receiving mode and soft handoff mode.

Below we specifically describe in the wait receiving mode of reality and the Cell searching method in the soft handoff mode.When waiting for reception, with enter the base station of waiting for (the connecting) of ongoing communication before the receiving mode by radio link by the control channel notice waiting for that relative phase information that the candidate of carrying out the base station of Cell searching in the time of reception counts Ns (there is the long code information of these base stations the base station that is connected with original communication channel) and their down link long code is corresponding by this base station all and the relation of being counted between the Nc by the peripheral base station that this base station is notified, adopt different cell search process.Because this Cell searching when entering soft handoff mode also is identical, thus following we only explanation wait for Cell searching when receiving.

Figure 18 is the figure of the formation of the expression part of carrying out the Cell searching function in the travelling carriage.In Figure 18, first Cell searching circuit of described first Cell searching function in back is carried out in reference number 3 expressions, second Cell searching circuit of described second the Cell searching function in back carried out in reference number 4 expressions, reference number 5 expression storing mobile stations should carry out Cell searching, the Ns that is predetermined scrambling code, it is first memory circuit of the kind of long code (using the base station (BS) of this yard), reference number 6 expression storage should be carried out the scrambling code of the base station of corresponding (base station that is connected with radio link the on every side) Cell searching of Nc scrambling code (long code) relative phase difference of the base station notice that connects with radio link, be second memory circuit of the kind of long code (using the base station of this long code), reference number 7 expression comparison circuits.Comparison circuit 7 is by comparing two memory circuits 5, information in 6, judge that the Ns and the relation between the Nc that enter the base station notice of waiting for the preceding ongoing communication of receiving mode are in when Ns and the equal situation (this is first kind of situation) of Nc, Nc is Duoed than several but in the situation (this is second kind of situation) and any situation in the situation (this is the third situation) of Nc below several lacked than Ns, respond this judged result, select one in first Cell searching circuit 3 and second the Cell searching circuit 4 to carry out Cell searching.

In first kind of situation, comparison circuit 7 is selected first Cell searching circuit 3.When Nc was equal with Ns, travelling carriage had the long code kinds of information of all base stations that search for and the relative phase information of each long code.So,, can in the search window scope, carry out the synchronous detecting of spreading code of downlink and the detection of incoming level for each phase bit timing by first Cell searching circuit 3.

In second kind of situation, at first, select first Cell searching circuit 3, by circuit 3, for the base station of the relative phase information of the long code kinds of information that some base station of Nc is arranged and each long code, can in the search window scope, carry out the synchronous detecting of spreading code of downlink and the detection of incoming level for the timing of each phase place.Further, select second Cell searching circuit 4, by circuit 4, the peripheral base station of relative phase information that does not have their long code for the base station that is connected with communication channel, carry out the synchronous detecting of the described triphasic down link spreading code in back and the detection of incoming level (synchronous detecting of this triphasic down link spreading code and the detection of incoming level, for example, at international patent publication WO 97/33400, Japan puts down on patent 11-196460 number that announced in 11 years and is documented).

In the third situation, select second Cell searching circuit 4, by circuit 4, there is not the peripheral base station of relative phase information of their long code for the base station that is connected with communication channel, carry out the synchronous detecting of the described triphasic down link spreading code in back and the detection of incoming level.

In first Cell searching circuit 3, base station for the relative phase information of notifying long code, the reception of long code regularly generates the duplicate of spreading code in the time range (search window) of certain width hereto, in sliding correlation detector, carry out the integration of a symbol with the duplicate of this spreading code, from further the correlation peak behind this integration being carried out the related power that the power averaging on several symbols obtains, detect the received power of the pilot channel of this base station.

At international patent publication WO 97/33400, Japan puts down in the three stage Cell searching methods of the patent 11-196460 number last record of announcing in 11 years, with short code and the intrinsic long code in each base station that all base stations are common pilot channel is carried out dual expansion.Then, a symbol of the time slot of certain cycle remove long code (masked).At ARIB, in " the Specification of Air-Interface for 3G MobileSystem, Version 1.0 " of distribution on January 14th, 1999, will be called first searching code (First Search Code) to the common short code that this long code is sheltered (FSC).Further, short code (this short code is called second searching code (Second Search Code) (the SSC)) code of each group that the expression all long codes that should search for that will determine in system are in advance divided into groups is multiplexed into above-mentioned FSC, and launches.In " Specificationof Air-Interface for 3G Mobile System; Version 1.0 ", 16 SSC in the frame are distributed to 32 groups the code pattern, the detection of realization group simultaneously and the frame timing detection that generate with RS code.

In second Cell searching circuit 4, base station for the relative phase information of not notifying long code (base station that is connected with original communication channel does not have the relative phase information of long code), be used in international patent publication WO 97/33400, Japan equals into three stage search methods of the patent 11-196460 number last record of announcing in 11 years and carries out Cell searching.In a first step, FSC is carried out power averaging to correlation peak with matched filter as the duplicate of spreading code detect largest peaks in the time in the cycle of the integral multiple of time slot, with this regularly as the reception timing of the FSC of the base station that should search for.Then, in second step, regularly each SSC of 32 groups is carried out coherent detection with this, be maximum group from the correlation peak that on average obtains on several frames, detection of long group and frame are regularly.At last, in the 3rd step,, in turn carry out coherent detection with sliding correlation detector and obtain correlation peak, again this correlation peak is carried out threshold determination and discern long code belonging in second step detected group long code.

As described above,,, also can be implemented in to receive to wait and bide one's time and during soft handover, with much at one the Cell searching of high speed in the inter-base station synchronizing system even if between the base station in the asynchronous system if according to the present invention.
