Detailed Description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

The embodiment of the application provides a base station type determining method, which is used for solving the technical problem of lower communication reliability caused by the fact that whether a base station corresponding to a cell measured by a user terminal is a shared base station or not cannot be obtained by a current base station, a cell or an operator in the prior art, and further the subsequent operations of selecting, reselecting, switching and the like of the cell are affected.

The communication system to which the method is applied may include a terminal, a first object currently in communication connection with the terminal, and a base station to be tested. The first object may have various implementation manners, for example, the first object may be a base station that is currently in communication connection with the terminal; alternatively, the first object may be a cell currently in communication connection with the terminal; alternatively, the first object may be an operator or the like, which is currently in communication connection with the terminal. The first object is capable of transmitting a radio resource control (Radio Resource Control, RRC) message, and the terminal may acquire the RRC message transmitted by the first object. In the embodiment of the present application, the RRC message transmitted by the first object includes a specific parameter, so that the first object can obtain, through a terminal that receives the RRC message, type information of the base station to be measured.

Base station types include shared base stations and non-shared base stations. Wherein, the shared base station refers to a base station supporting a plurality of operators, and the non-shared base station refers to a base station supporting one operator. It will be appreciated that based on the above classification, the base station types may be further divided, for example: when the base station is a shared base station, the base station can be classified according to the number of operators supported by the base station or operators specifically supported by the base station; similarly, when the base station is a non-shared base station, the base station may be classified according to the operators specifically supported by the base station.

The method for determining the base station type provided in the embodiment of the present application is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a flowchart of a base station type determining method according to an embodiment of the present application, where the base station type determining method includes the following steps:

step S101: the first object sends a first parameter to the accessed terminal.

Step S102: the terminal acquires the first parameter.

In the embodiment of the application, the first parameter may have various implementation manners. For example, in a New Radio (NR) system, the first parameter may be a measurement configuration parameter (MeasConfig) for issuing a measurement configuration to the terminal. There are also many ways of measuring parameters.

As an embodiment, the measurement parameters may include a first measurement value and a second measurement value; wherein the first measurement value characterizes the terminal to perform the measurement of the base station type, and the second measurement value characterizes the terminal not to perform the measurement of the base station type. For example, the first measurement may be one of 1 or 0, and the second measurement is the other of 1 or 0, respectively; alternatively, the first measurement may be one of true or false, and the second measurement may be the other of true or false, respectively.

Therefore, according to the meaning of the specific characterization of the measurement parameter, the terminal can measure or not measure the base station to be measured. That is, the first object may adjust the meaning of the measurement parameter according to the need to control the terminal to make the measurement of the base station type when needed.

As another embodiment, the measurement parameters may also include parameters characterizing the specific base station the terminal needs to make measurements.

It can be appreciated that the implementation manners of the measurement parameters are merely two examples provided in the embodiments of the present application, and those skilled in the art may reasonably adjust the specific implementation manners of the measurement parameters according to actual situations.

In the above scheme, by modifying the first parameter, the terminal may measure the base station type of the base station to be measured based on the measurement parameter in the first parameter, and may report the measurement result to the first object. Therefore, the first object can acquire whether the base station to be detected corresponding to the cell measured by the terminal is a shared base station, which is favorable for subsequent operations such as selection, reselection, switching and the like of the cell, thereby improving the reliability of communication

Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flowchart of another base station type determining method according to an embodiment of the present application, where the base station type determining method includes the following steps:

step S201: the first object sends the second parameter to the accessed terminal.

Step S202: the terminal obtains the second parameter.

Step S203: when the measurement parameters characterize the terminal to measure the base station type, the terminal determines parameter information according to the measurement result of the base station type and the parameter form.

Step S204: and the terminal reports the parameter information.

Step S205: and the first object receives parameter information which accords with the parameter form and is reported by the terminal.

Step S206: and the first object determines the base station type of the base station to be tested according to the received parameter information.

In the embodiment of the application, the second parameter may have various implementation manners. For example, in a New Radio (NR) system, the second parameter may be a reporting configuration parameter (ReportConfigNR) for transmitting a reporting configuration to the terminal.

It should be noted that, in some scenarios, the first parameter and the second parameter may be the same parameter, for example, the measurement configuration parameter includes the first parameter and the second parameter. For convenience of description, the scheme description is developed by taking the first parameter as the measurement configuration parameter and the second parameter as the reporting configuration parameter.

There are also various implementations of reporting parameters.

As an implementation manner, the parameter form in the report parameters may include a first report value and a second report value; the first reported value represents that the base station type is a shared base station, and the second reported value represents that the base station type is an unshared base station. For example, the first reporting value may be one of 1 or 0, and the second reporting value is the other of 1 or 0, respectively; alternatively, the first report value may be one of true or false, and accordingly, the second report value is the other of true or false.

In this embodiment, the terminal may determine the corresponding parameter information according to the measurement result and the parameter form of the base station type, so as to explicitly indicate in the report information whether the measured base station is a shared base station. Accordingly, after the first object receives the parameter information, the base station type can be directly determined according to the received parameter information.

As another embodiment, the parameter form in the reporting parameters may include a preset set; the preset set comprises a plurality of preset values, and each preset value respectively represents a base station type and an operator supported by the base station type. In this embodiment, as an implementation manner, the size of the preset set may be positively related to the number of operators supported by the base station.

For example, assuming a total of 3 operators, the preset set includes 7 values, each X value corresponding to one base station type in table 1:

table 1X value and a base station type and operator information

It can be seen that when x=0, the base station is a shared base station, and the base station is shared by 3 operators; when x=1, the base station is a shared base station, and the base station is shared by the operator 1 and the operator 2; when x=2, the base station is a shared base station, and the base station is shared by the operator 1 and the operator 3; when x=3, the base station is a shared base station, and the base station is shared by the operator 2 and the operator 3; when x=4, the base station is a non-shared base station, and the base station belongs to operator 1; when x=5, the base station is a non-shared base station, and the base station belongs to operator 2; when x=6, the base station is a non-shared base station, and belongs to operator 3.

In this embodiment, the terminal may also determine the corresponding parameter information according to the result of the base station type measurement and the parameter form, so that the specific type of the measured base station may be explicitly indicated in the report information. Accordingly, after the first object receives the parameter information, the specific type of the base station can be directly determined according to the received parameter information.

As a further embodiment, the parameter form in the reporting parameter may be a physical cell identifier; and the physical cell identifier characterizes the type of the base station as a shared base station when falling into a first range, and characterizes the type of the base station as an unshared base station when falling into a second range.

It should be noted that, when the parameter form is a physical cell identifier, there are various embodiments for dividing the first range and the second range, and the following embodiments will describe two dividing modes by way of example, which will not be described herein.

In this embodiment, the terminal may determine the corresponding parameter information according to the measurement result and the parameter form of the base station type, so that the measured base station type may be implicitly indicated in the report information, that is, the physical cell identifier of the measured base station is reported to the first object, and after the first object receives the physical cell identifier, the base station type needs to be further determined according to the physical cell identifier. That is, the first object cannot directly determine the type of the base station according to the received parameter information, but needs to process the parameter information to obtain the specific type of the base station.

It can be appreciated that, similar to the above measurement parameters, the implementation manners of the above reporting parameters are only three examples provided in the embodiments of the present application, and those skilled in the art may reasonably adjust the specific implementation manners of the measurement parameters according to actual situations.

In the above scheme, by modifying the second parameter, the terminal may report the base station type of the base station to be tested based on the reporting parameter in the second parameter. Therefore, the first object can acquire whether the base station corresponding to the cell measured by the terminal is the shared base station, which is favorable for subsequent operations such as selection, reselection, switching and the like of the cell, thereby improving the reliability of communication.

In combination with the above methods of base station types in fig. 1 and fig. 2, there are three possible methods for the data sent by the first object to the terminal: the first method comprises the steps that a first object sends a first parameter to an accessed terminal; the second, the first object sends the second parameter to the terminal of the access; third, the first object sends the first parameter and the second parameter to the accessed terminal. In another aspect, the first parameter may include a measurement parameter, and/or the second parameter may include a reporting parameter.

Thus, the parameters acquired by the terminal from the first object may include the following eight possible embodiments:

In the mode 1, a terminal acquires a first parameter and a second parameter at the same time, wherein the first parameter comprises a measurement parameter, and the second parameter comprises a reporting parameter;

mode 2, the terminal acquires a first parameter and a second parameter at the same time, wherein the first parameter comprises a measurement parameter, and the second parameter does not comprise a reporting parameter;

mode 3, the terminal acquires a first parameter and a second parameter at the same time, wherein the first parameter does not comprise a measurement parameter, and the second parameter comprises a reporting parameter;

mode 4, the terminal acquires a first parameter and a second parameter at the same time, wherein the first parameter does not comprise a measurement parameter, and the second parameter does not comprise a reporting parameter;

mode 5, the terminal only acquires the first parameter, wherein the first parameter comprises a measurement parameter;

mode 6, the terminal only acquires the first parameter, and the first parameter does not include the measurement parameter;

mode 7, the terminal only acquires the second parameter, wherein the second parameter comprises the reporting parameter;

in the mode 8, the terminal only acquires the second parameter, and the second parameter does not include the reporting parameter.

In the following, how the first object obtains the type information of the base station to be measured in eight ways.

In the mode 1, the terminal acquires the first parameter and the second parameter at the same time, wherein the first parameter comprises a measurement parameter, and the second parameter comprises a reporting parameter. At this time, the terminal can know whether the measurement of the base station type is needed or not through the measurement parameters; and when the measurement is required, the type of the base station is measured, the measurement result is reported based on the parameter form in the reporting parameters, and the first object can acquire the type information of the base station to be measured.

In the mode 2, the terminal acquires the first parameter and the second parameter at the same time, wherein the first parameter comprises the measurement parameter, and the second parameter does not comprise the reporting parameter. At this time, the terminal can know whether the measurement of the base station type is needed or not through the measurement parameters; when the measurement is needed, the type of the base station is measured; however, since the second parameter does not include the reporting parameter, the terminal cannot report the measurement result based on the reporting parameter, and the first object cannot acquire the type information of the base station to be measured.

It should be noted that, in the mode 2, if the reported parameter form is preconfigured in the terminal, even if the second parameter does not include the reporting parameter, the terminal may report the measurement result based on the preconfigured parameter form, and the first object may learn the type information of the base station to be measured. Of course, when the second parameter does not include the reporting parameter and the terminal is not preconfigured with the reporting parameter form, the terminal cannot report the measurement result to the first object.

In the mode 3, the terminal acquires the first parameter and the second parameter at the same time, wherein the first parameter does not include the measurement parameter, and the second parameter includes the reporting parameter. At this time, the terminal does not measure the type of the base station, and the first object cannot acquire the type information of the base station to be measured.

It should be noted that, in the mode 3, if the terminal receives the base station type sent by other objects, the terminal may report the base station type based on the parameter form in the report parameters, and the first object may acquire the type information of the base station to be tested.

In the mode 4, the terminal acquires the first parameter and the second parameter at the same time, wherein the first parameter does not include the measurement parameter, and the second parameter does not include the reporting parameter. At this time, the terminal cannot measure the type of the base station, and cannot report the type information of the base station to be measured, and the first object cannot acquire the type information of the base station to be measured.

In mode 5, the terminal acquires only the first parameter, and the first parameter includes the measurement parameter. At this time, the terminal can know whether the measurement of the base station type is needed or not through the measurement parameters; and when the measurement is required, the base station type is measured.

Similar to mode 2, in mode 5, if the reported parameter form is preconfigured in the terminal, the terminal may report the measurement result based on the preconfigured parameter form even if there is no second parameter, and the first object may learn the type information of the base station to be measured. Of course, when the second parameter is not available and the reported parameter form is not preconfigured in the terminal, the terminal cannot report the measurement result to the first object, and the first object cannot acquire the type information of the base station to be measured.

In mode 6, the terminal acquires only the first parameter, and the first parameter does not include the measurement parameter. At this time, the terminal does not measure the type of the base station, and the first object cannot acquire the type information of the base station to be measured.

In mode 7, the terminal only acquires the second parameter, and the second parameter includes the reporting parameter. At this time, the terminal does not measure the base station type.

It should be noted that, similar to the manner 3, in the manner 7, if the terminal receives the base station type sent by the other object, the terminal may report the base station type based on the parameter form in the report parameters, and the first object may acquire the type information of the base station to be tested.

In mode 8, the terminal only acquires the second parameter, and the second parameter does not include the reporting parameter. At this time, the terminal cannot measure the type of the base station, and cannot report the type information of the base station to be measured, and the first object cannot acquire the type information of the base station to be measured.

Two embodiments of dividing the first range and the second range when the parameter is in the form of a physical cell identity are described below.

The first division is described first. In this division, the physical cell identities in the first range and the physical cell identities in the second range may constitute M physical cell identities. Where M is the number of physical cell identities in the case of the current network configuration. For example, assuming that there are 1008 total physical cell identities in the case of the current network configuration, m=1008, i.e. the physical cell identities in the first range and the physical cell identities in the second range may constitute 1008 physical cell identities.

In such an embodiment, the type of base station may be planned and divided based on the number of physical cell identities in the case of the current network configuration.

Next, a second division is described. In this division, the physical cell identities in the first range and the physical cell identities in the second range form N physical cell identities. Wherein N is greater than M, and M is the number of physical cell identities in the case of the current network configuration.
