Abstract
The invention discloses a switching method and a device of user equipment (UE) in spatial division multiple access (SDMA). The corresponding relationship between channels in a cell and the channels of the adjacent cell is simultaneously configured when configuring the corresponding relationship between the cell and the adjacent cell, and a wireless network controller (RNC) can decide which channel of which target cell where the UE to be switched is switched to during the switching according to the two relationships, thereby leading the UE to be switched and the existing UE of the channel to equally share carrier waves of the channel when distributing resources, ensuring that the business in the target cell is not affected when switching the UE and not increasing the probability of call drop.
Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a handover technology, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for handover of User Equipment (UE) in Spatial Division Multiple Access (SDMA).
Background
SDMA techniques use spatial characteristics as a form of resource partitioning so that UEs located in different directions or in different coverage areas use the same timeslot, carrier, and code channel resources. Specifically, the SDMA technique sets up N channels in a cell with a spatial ranking condition, each channel configures carriers 0 to M, and the same carriers located in different channels can be allocated to different UEs as resources. In SDMA, different users can use the same air interface resource by accessing the users to different channels, thereby improving the capacity of the system.
At present, when a UE accesses a certain cell, the UE reports a channel number to be accessed to a Radio Network Controller (RNC) through a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message, and the RNC accesses the UE to the channel and equally divides all UEs in the channel on each carrier, that is, allocates different carriers to each UE in the channel as much as possible, so as to improve the rate of a single user and the throughput of the whole cell to the maximum extent.
The biggest characteristic of a wireless communication user is the continuity of the service in the moving process, in the prior art, different adjacent cells are configured for each cell in network planning to ensure the continuity in the moving process, but after a channel is introduced by the SDMA technology, the concept of the adjacent channel is not introduced in the prior art, which brings problems to UE switching.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a UE handover method in SDMA in the prior art, which includes:
step 101: and the RNC switches the UE according to the measurement report and an algorithm strategy decision, and selects a target cell from the adjacent cells of the current cell of the UE when the switching condition is met.
Step 102: and the RNC allocates resources for the UE in the target cell.
In this step, the RNC allocates resources according to the load condition and the interference condition of the target cell and the requirements of the service itself performed by the UE.
The resource allocation procedure of this step is illustrated as an example. Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of the RNC allocating resources to the UE in the flow shown in fig. 1, in this example, a source side is a cell initially accessed by the UE1, and a target side is a cell to which the UE1 needs to be switched during a service process. Since the RNC cannot decide which channel of the target cell to handover the UE to, only the carriers with less load, less interference and meeting the service requirements can be randomly allocated to the UE 1. As shown in fig. 2, the target itself has two carriers F0 and F1, and the two carriers have been allocated to UE5 and UE6, respectively, and from the viewpoint of load, the two carriers are the same, and assuming that the interference of carrier F1 is small and meets the service requirement, the RNC can allocate carrier F1 to UE 1.
Step 103: the RNC performs a handover procedure.
Step 104: the RNC judges whether the switching is successful, if so, the step 105 is executed, otherwise, the step 101 is executed.
Step 105: and the RNC updates the internal data and completes the switching.
Step 106: the RNC adjusts the UE and other existing UEs in the channel according to the channel number reported by the base station where the UE is switched, and performs Dynamic Channel Allocation (DCA) to ensure that all UEs in the channel perform carrier averaging.
In this step, as still taking fig. 2 as an example, since channel 1 of the target cell only includes carrier F0 in fig. 2, the result of carrier averaging is that both UE5 and UE1 allocate carrier F0.
As can be seen from the flow shown in fig. 1, the UE handover method in SDMA in the prior art has the following problems:
1. when resources are allocated in the switching process, the RNC cannot know which channel of the target cell the UE is switched to, so that the resources can be randomly allocated to the UE only according to the load condition, the interference condition and the requirement of the service, and the load of certain carriers of individual channels is overlarge after the UE is switched into the target cell, thereby affecting the service of the target cell and even causing service interruption;
2. after the handover is completed, in order to improve the rate of a single user and the throughput of the whole cell to the maximum extent, the RNC further needs to execute DCA on all UEs in the channel according to the channel number of the UE reported by the base station, which lengthens the time delay on the one hand, and increases the probability of call drop through frequent adjustment on the other hand.
