Description

Method and device for wireless resource management of access network
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of wireless communication technologies, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for performing radio resource management in an access network.
Background
With the development of wireless communication technology, various wireless services have emerged; and with the diversity of the user's demands for various wireless services, different wireless services need to be provided according to different demands of different users. Such as: for high-end users, the service priority and the service quality of wireless services required by the high-end users are superior to those of other types of users; for low end users, the service priority of the wireless service provided by the network may be low and the service quality may be poor because they do not want to pay high service fees. The user's demand for wireless services may be indicated by the user subscription information.
Moreover, the operator may set different operator policies in different areas according to service requirements of the different areas, for example, set different network systems. Such as: for densely populated, communications-concentrated areas, LTE (long term evolution) networks may be deployed, providing high-speed data services; for the area where the high speed data service is not needed, the original wide coverage network, such as GSM (global system for mobile communications) or WCDMA (wideband code division multiple access) network, is saved to provide the general voice service.
In the operation process of the network, different services required by different users need to be distinguished according to different attribute information of the different users, and currently, the attribute information may include: the user subscription information indicates the user's requirements for wireless services, and the operator's policy.
In the existing UMTS (universal mobile telecommunications system), user subscription information or operator policy information is not transmitted to RAN (radio access network); and, admission control and switching decision of the UMTS business are carried out on RAN, without considering the user subscription information or the operator strategy information.
However, the service levels corresponding to users with different attribute information are different; and, the target cell is different when the users with different attribute information are switched. In the prior art, the RAN does not receive the user subscription information or the operator policy information indicating the user attribute information at present, and therefore, the user subscription information or the operator policy information cannot be considered in the case of performing admission control and handover decision, and thus, the required service cannot be provided to the user.
At present, no technical scheme is available for a wireless access network to acquire user subscription information or operator policy information; in addition, there is no technical solution that enables the radio access network to acquire other attribute information of the user.
