Description

In GSM, carry out the method that portable terminal switches
Technical field
The present invention relates to GSM, more specifically, relate to the method that a kind of idle condition mobile radio station that is used for GSM is carried out more efficiently and supported to switch.
Background technology
Fig. 1 illustrates the example of the overall calls processing procedure of the beginning that powers on of mobile radio station from GSM.When mobile radio station powers on; Read necessary system information and it is set to the RAM (perhaps other storage devices) from memory; Through use pilot channel and synchronizing channel carry out with system synchronously, and entering is used to receive the mobile station initialization state of the system information of requirement.In the message of passing through this synchronization channel transmissions (for example; Sync Channel Message) in; Include system information; With the frequency information that relates to mobile radio station this PCH of decoding PCH or P-BCCH (main BCCH), that allow idle condition or P-BCCH, and data transfer rate or encoding rate information.If adopt P-BCCH, then comprise the information that transmission diversity is relevant in addition.
This mobile radio station idle condition refers to so a kind of state; Promptly; After the mobile radio station of initial condition receives that all system informations and normal running are accomplished; Through using the information that transmits via Sync Channel Message, the state when receiving Overhead Message through PCH or P-BCCH from the base station.Some examples of these Overhead Messages are to comprise the relevant information system parameter message (SPM) of system; Extended System Parameters Message (ESPM); Comprise common neighbor list message (GNLM) about the information of neighbor cell or sector; Extending neighboring list message (ENLM), universal neighbor list message (UNLM), or the like.
System's access state refers to the state that allows mobile radio station to insert this system and inserts, and service condition refers to when the mobile radio station executive communication, promptly calls out the state when carrying out.When the mobile radio station that is in system's access state was accomplished specific operation, it returned idle condition or service condition.When being in idle condition, if do not receive that then initialization procedure begins once more through the message of PCH or P-BCCH transmission.For the mobile radio station of service condition, be terminated if call out when carrying out, then initialization procedure begins to rebulid synchronously once more.
This mobile radio station is not only measured the pilot signal strength of serving BS, and obtains the information about neighbor cell through adjacent message such as GNLM, ENLM, UNLM or the like, such as PILOT_PN or the like, and monitors the pilot signal strength of neighbor cell continuously.The result of monitoring is like this; If increasing, the pilot signal strength of neighbor cell surpasses a certain threshold value when comparing with the pilot signal strength of serving BS; Then mobile radio station is carried out idle the switching, and this refers to from having the base station paging receiving channel or the P-BCCH of bigger pilot signal strength.
Below, the base station that mobile radio station is moved to when carrying out idle the switching is known as target BS, and current base station is known as source base station (source base station).
Move to target BS and must receive in the situation of P-BCCH at the mobile radio station of paging receiving channel, prior art has run into a lot of problems, because this mobile radio station is not received the required any information of decoding P-BCCH from source base station.In more detail, shown in Fig. 2 and 3, in idle condition between transfer period; Idle condition is not directly to change to be idle condition; But mobile radio station moves to target BS and after the entering system confirmed sub-state, pilot channel and synchronizing channel just were received, and receives the information about P-BCCH from it; After this, get into idle condition.This has caused the problem that produces time delay.
In addition; From source base station paging receiving channel with will be when moving to target BS the situation of paging receiving channel; If data rate (for example changes owing to switching when moving to target BS again; Transform to 9600bps from 4800bps), then because the mobile radio station of prior art confirms that with the entering system sub-state just gets into idle condition then, so the problem of time delay may occur.When after the prior art mobile radio station that receives P-BCCH from source base station is implementing the switching of target BS, needing the paging receiving channel, similar problem appears.
Similarly; Receiving P-BCCH and will receive from target BS the situation of P-BCCH from source base station; If in target BS data rate or code rate or the variation of Walsh sign indicating number; Then the prior art mobile radio station can the entering system confirm that sub-state gets into idle condition then, thereby causes delay problem.
If this time delay appears at idle condition between transfer period, if when the prior art mobile radio station is in idle condition more from the source base station receiving broadcast service, then these time delays possibly influence quality of broadcasting service (QoS) greatly.In other words; When the prior art mobile radio station of idle condition during through forward supplemental channel (F-SCH) receiving broadcast service, when carrying out idle the switching, confirm sub-state through system and get into time that delay consumed in the idle condition during can not receive this broadcasting service.
