Description

The report method of cell update fault in a kind of WCDMA system

Technical field

The present invention relates to mobile communication technology, cell update fault report method in the particularly a kind of WCDMA system.

Background technology

WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access, Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA)) system is an open system, this system mainly comprises CN (Core Network, core net), UTRAN (UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network, UMTS Terrestrial radio access network) and UE (User Equipment, user terminal) three parts (other as part such as webmaster and alarm subsystem not at the row of this patent description).As shown in Figure 1, (the Radio Network Controller of RNC wherein, radio network controller) belongs to the UTRAN part, RNC and other network element exist standard interface, comprise: and the IU interface between the CN and the IUB interface between the NodeB, and other RNC between the IUR interface, and and UE between the UU interface.

A RNC can connect one or more NodeB, and a NodeB comprises one or more sub-district.After the UE start, in a sub-district, just can receive the service of network side after resident, such as receiving system message and beep-page message.When other Packet Services such as UE conversation or browsing page, UE can trigger the flow process of series of standards interface in this sub-district.

When UE inserted other Packet Services such as successfully being initially located in conversation or browsing page, this UE may be in the edge of certain sub-district, just moves to another neighbor cell from a sub-district.This moment, UE may report the cell update message of different reasons, in order to guarantee the effective management of UTRAN to current UE, the RNC current resident sub-district of UE that need upgrade in time, if UE is in other Packet Service states such as conversation or browsing page, need keep the current business of this UE as far as possible, if the cell update failure, the current business of UE may be released, even discharges the RRC connection of UE.

In order to guarantee that UE has moved to new sub-district, in time notify the relevant information of UTRAN current UE, proposed the notion of cell update in the WCDMA system, as the important component part of 3G system mobile management, cell update can be guaranteed the connection management of UTRAN to UE.According to different cell update reasons, cell updating course shows as following several types:

1, uplink data transmission (transmitting uplink data)

If be in CELL_PCH (paging channel, paging channel) UE of state on the RB1 or on the RBn (n＞1), has up RLC data PDU or up RLC control PDU, UE will carry out cell update so, upgrade former because " uplink data transmission ".RNC sends CELLUPDATE CONFIRMATION message to UE, and UE is moved to the CELL_FACH state receiving that renewal is former because after the CELL UPDATE message of " uplink data transmission ".

2, Paging response (page response)

Received PAGING TYPE1 message if be in the UE of CELL_PCH state, UE will carry out cell update so, upgrade former because " paging response ".Receiving that renewal is former because after the CELL UPDATE message of " pagingresponse ", RNC sends CELL UPDATECONFIRMATION message to UE, and UE is moved to CELL_FACH (forward access channel, forward access channel) state.

3, Re-entering service area (reentry service area)

If UE has gone out service area, return service area then again, UE will carry out cell update so, upgrade former because " re-entering service area ".Receive that at RNC renewal is former because after the CELL UPDATE message of " re-entering servicearea ", upgrade the current resident sub-district of UE.

4, RLC unrecoverable error (expendable RLC mistake)

If UE detects the expendable RLC mistake of an AM (acknowledged mode, affirmation mode) RLC entity, UE will carry out cell update so, upgrade former because " RLC unrecoverableerror ".If CELL UPDATE message indicates this mistake to occur on RB2, the RB3 or RB4 (RB:radio bearer, radio bearer) of UE, the RRC (Radio ResourceControl, Radio Resource control) that RNC will discharge UE connects.If CELL UPDATE message indicates this mistake to occur on the RBn (n＞4) of UE, RNC will rebulid the RLC entity of corresponding RB.

5, Cell reselection (sub-district gravity treatment)

Will carry out the sub-district gravity treatment if be in the UE of CELL_FACH state or CELL_PCH state, UE need carry out cell update so, upgrades former because " cell reselection ".RNC upgrades the current resident sub-district of UE receiving that renewal is former because after the CELL UPDATE message of " cell reselection ".

6, Periodical cell update (periodic cell update)

After entering CELL_FACH or CELL_PCH state, UE opening timing device T305, after T305 was overtime, UE carried out cell update, upgraded former because " periodical cell update ".RNC upgrades former because after the CELL UPDATE message of " periodical cell update " when receiving, opens the T305 of this UE.

7, Radio link failure (Radio Link Failure)

If UE is in CELL_DCH ((dedicated (transport) channel, special-purpose (transmission) channel)) state and satisfies the condition of Radio Link Failure, UE will carry out cell update so, upgrade former because " radio link failure ".Upgrade former because after the CELLUPDATE message of " radio link failure ", RNC will rebulid a wireless links when receiving, and deletion current wireless link.RNC sends CELL UPDATE CONFIRMATION message to UE, comprises the parameter of new link in the message.UE just can rebulid the RRC connection on new link then.

In the line service of existing network, carry out the analysis of causes of cell update failure by the following method:

1, performance statistics function

Performance statistics is a quality of weighing current network by statistical items crucial in the statistics network.This method is the number of times of statistics cell update success/failure in a specific measuring period.And this statistical value fed back to network management system, and comprehensively analyze by network management system, instruct by analysis result and deal with problems and the network optimization.

Performance statistics is a kind of long-time, a kind of statistical function of periodic duty in other words conj.or perhaps, the number of times of statistics cell update success/failure in a period of time, this statistics itself is just very coarse, and this function is the statistical history data, can not carry out anomaly analysis to the cell update failure cause.If improve the granularity of performance statistics, increase the fail statistics of various different reasons of cell update, will certainly cause the appearance of mass data, cause influence to regular traffic.

2, the whole network signaling test method

The method of signaling tracing is to follow the tracks of calling procedure especially from the standard agreement message in the different network elements in standard protocol interface (as UU, IUB) by the signaling tracing instrument, and the message that these are relevant sends to network management center, analyze by the message that these are caught, according to analysis result network is optimized, solves subproblem simultaneously.

The whole network tracking is a kind of real-time tracking, need all to follow the tracks of at all interfaces by special third party's instrument, whether this tracking is not distinguished is cell update, the cell update success or not, can produce lot of data like this, present 2G total network signalling tracing has just been followed the tracks of the message between net, and just the message of core net part is not followed the tracks of the Access Network part.For the 3G system, these tracking messages will be magnanimity, when especially needing to follow the tracks of the message of Access Network part.How to obtain Useful Information from a large amount of message is followed the tracks of, will be very large workload.Also need very rich experience by signaling tracing in addition, the problem that exists in the discovery message that can be very sharp, this method also are not easy to promote in the attendant.

3, alarm

When system breaks down, warning system can be real-time will alarm the reason that produces and send to network management system, and network management system can be analyzed and gets rid of the fault that is taken place according to producing alarm cause and equipment.

What in general alarm was paid close attention to all is equipment fault, fewer to the concern of UE fault., because initiating cell update, Radio Link Failure during the cell updating course failure, just can't in alarm, embody such as UE.So alarm can not reflect or solve the problem of cell update failure basically.

By above protocol architecture, when UE initiates cell update and carries out in the process of cell update, in the time of may causing the cell update failure owing to various reason, such as at the UU interface, or IUB interface, or IU interface, or the IU interface is when making a mistake, system can produce fault-signal automatically, when detecting the fault-signal that upgrades failure, according to failure cause, report agreement to stipulate the parameter that reports according to fault, collect the relevant information of fault in-situ, and be filled up to respectively in the corresponding cell of setting in the fault reporting message, again the fault reporting message is sent to network management center, after network management center is received the fault reporting message, definition extracting parameter from each cell according to the fault agreement is also preserved according to each parameter item automatically, can utilize the parameter information of preservation to analyze then, come cell of origin to upgrade the reason of failure, instruct operator to optimize network, thereby reduce the mortality of cell updating course, by this method, network management center can be preserved the reported result in a period of time, the call history CHR that generation is used to analyze (Call History Record) further provides reliable reference for optimizing network.

For example, the initial stage in 3G network operation, 3G network occurs through regular meeting and cover irrational situation, excessive such as the sub-district area coverage design that has, because UE causes local resource to exhaust too much, perhaps Pei Zhi neighboring area signal is too poor etc. at the area of coverage.When the UE that these reasons cause UE to call out or called out in these places had moved to this place, the non-constant that signal can become more call drop may occur.

After the UE that sets up business moves to as above said sub-district, because current cell quality is poor, may triggering cell upgrade so, cause the cell update failure, may discharge the current business of setting up of UE.For not setting up the cell update that the professional UE that is in connection mode triggers, if the cell update failure may cause discharging RRC and connect.At this time just can analyze the cell update failure cause by the method that this patent is described, thus the auxiliary problem that solves the cell update failure.

Be elaborated with a specific embodiment below:

Existed the UE of calling to move to cell edge, this moment cell signal a little less than, may trigger the cell update of a radio link failure, the cell update failure may appear because Target cell is resource-constrained, because the original Radio Link Failure of this UE, cause UE the phenomenon of call drop to occur, when call drop appears in UE, system can produce corresponding fault-signal, the failure cause that indicates according to fault-signal, question blank 1, the parameter information that must report has: mobile station related information, travelling carriage current area relevant information and cell update failure procedure relevant information.Wherein cell update failure procedure relevant information only reports and causes this related causes that upgrades failure, that is: Radio Link Failure inquires the relevant parameter item that defines in the table 13 step by step.

After the parameter of having determined specifically to report, the log information of inquiry on-the-spot record etc. obtains relevant parameter value, in the related cells with parameter value Write fault reporting message, send to network management center then, after network management center is received the fault reporting message, extracting parameter value from related cells, and the corresponding preservation of the concrete definition of corresponding parameter value, generate parameter list as table 14, when needs are analyzed, from database, call relevant parameter list, can help that we carry out the network optimization, so that the cell update that UE can be successful is to new Target cell.

Carrying out the CS speech business of 12.2K such as UE, when moving to cell edge, initiating cell update, the cell updating course failure.After the cell update failure, RNC can send to network management center with the protocol information contents of failure, the Operation and Maintenance personnel can be by the phone number of UE at operating console, MSISDN just, find the IMSI of this UE according to MSISDN, find the partial content of corresponding protocol message as shown in table 14 below by this IMSI number:

Table 14

Analytical table 14 can obtain following information:

1, present UE has moved to the common area of coverage of sub-district 3 and sub-district 4, and this moment, sub-district 3 signals of RNC1 were relatively poor, and UE detects Radio Link Failure, initiates the cell update of radio link failure.

2, after RNC receives the cell update message of UE, according to the RRM Algorithm Analysis, find that the current load of Target cell (sub-district 4 of RNC1) is very high, wherein TCP has reached 90%, has surpassed the thresholding that inserts this sub-district.

Can know that from top output parameter the reason of the cell update of this radio link failure failure is: Target cell load is very heavy, cause the access failure and the cell update failure that causes, we can provide as drawing a conclusion so:

1, whether Target cell is in the center of focus, if, should optimize network so, minimizing with this Target cell as the adjacent area.

2, whether the pilot power of Target cell is provided with too greatly, causes too many UE to be linked in this sub-district.If should reduce power so, so that make UE can be evenly distributed to other neighbor cell.

3, the cell selecting of modifying target sub-district and reselecting parameters are so that make the UE easier gravity treatment free time in this sub-district arrive other adjacent area.

4, suitably revise timer and constant under the connection mode of UE in the current RNC sub-district, so that change the condition that radio link failure cell update takes place UE.

In sum, cell update fault report method flow process of the present invention comprises the steps: as shown in Figure 9

The fault-signal that S1, monitoring cell updating course and receiving system are sent when upgrading failure;

S2, the parameter information that concentrated requirement reports according to failure cause inquiry cell update fault parameter;

S3, from the field data of system log (SYSLOG), obtain in the cell in corresponding parameters value and the corresponding Write fault reporting message according to described parameter information;

S4, described fault reporting message is sent to network management center.

Pass through above-mentioned steps, administrative center receives 0 fault reporting message and extracts the parameter value that carries and preserve from each cell, relevant information in the process that can obtain cell update failure or break down, thus reach analyzing and positioning cell update failure cause, instruct the network optimization, plan the capacity of sub-district again and improve the purpose of network insertion condition.

Obviously, those skilled in the art can carry out various changes and modification to the present invention and not break away from the spirit and scope of the present invention.Like this, if of the present invention these are revised and modification belongs within the scope of claim of the present invention and equivalent technologies thereof, then the present invention also is intended to comprise these changes and modification interior.
