Abstract

In a TDD radio system, the interfering signal power is determined by shifting the uplink and downlink transmission time intervals of a time division duplex radio base station. The signal power in the shifted uplink transmission time slot is then measured so that the interfering signal power from surrounding radio base stations can be measured. Based on the measurements, the surrounding base stations as well as a new base station can be configured and tuned so that interference within the system is kept within an acceptable range.

Description

TDD testing equipment
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of for testing and regulate the method and apparatus of radio system network.Especially, the present invention relates to a kind of for testing and regulate the method and apparatus of TDD radio base station.
Background technology
In cellular radio communications, there are a lot of different transmission plan and communication patterns.TDD (time division duplex) is a kind of communication pattern, radio base station and and the mobile radio station that connects of cellular radio system between its up link be arranged in identical frequency band but separated by time slot with downlink transmission, therefore only there is in one direction data traffic a time.In other communication pattern, the up link between radio base station and mobile radio station and downlink transmission are for example FDD (Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD)) by frequency division.
In TDD mobile system, if enough short of the time interval of up link and down link exists channel interaction, because bi-directional radio relay link has almost identical propagation conditions between up link and down link.In other words, if the switching time between two continuous up link and downlink transmission enough short, between these two transmission, just do not have propagation characteristic to change.
And TD SDMA TD-SCDMA is a kind of TDD (time division duplex) code division multiple access, cdma system, is the global 3G RAT (radio access technologies) specifying in a kind of 3GPP.TD-SCDMA and its evolution system, for example time division high speed downlink link packet access, the Long Term Evolution LTE TDD of TD-HSDPA and TD-SCDMA compatibility has obtained significant fast development in China.
Mobile communication has become a kind of global Driving technique of key.As a result, increasing RAT is by standardization and development, and increasing mobile radio access network RAN is established and moves.In a lot of countries and regions, particularly in modern state and area, much network coexisted, for example: GSM, WCDMA/HSDPA, CDMA2000/EvDo, WiFi/WiMax system etc.Now, a lot of operators are also by adopting identical or different RAT to build overlapping mobile network.
But, due to band signal energy leakage, between nearby frequency bands network, there is mutual interference.Particularly, mutual interference is the serious problems that have self-interference characteristic in cdma system.
TDD system is at identical frequency band transmission up link and down link signal, if the physical frame between therefore can not strict guarantee neighboring radio base station is synchronous, likely produces the interference of base station to base station.Because the propagation between radio base station (RBS) is similar with the propagation in free space, and transmit signal power and receiver sensitivity also relatively high, base station will have a strong impact on the robustness of network to the interference of base station.Especially, in TDD CDMA, one or more communities is likely blocked potentially to the interference of base station in serious base station.
Therefore, need the method and apparatus of the potential trouble configuration that can identify base station to avoid the interference of base station to base station.
Summary of the invention
A target of the present invention is overcome or at least reduce and some problems that configure the new radio base station with existing and be associated.
Another target of the present invention is to provide one can detect radio base station, the instrument of the potential interference configuration of the RBS that particularly specific fixed station or website are searched.
Another target of the present invention is to provide a kind of promotion and operates in the instrument of the configuration of the TDD radio base station in the environment with a lot of coexisted wireless electric system networks.
The method and system proposing by the claim of enclosing obtains these objects and other objects.Therefore, by TDD testing equipment is provided, this TDD testing equipment can be measured the signal power receiving on TDD radio base station during time slot in the time that radio base station transmits data traffic conventionally, and this equipment can be measured the power from the existing adjacent TDD radio base station in radio base station transmission range.Disturb by using at downlink transmission interim measurement uplink data the information of collecting, make system manager can configure radio base station and adjusting belongs to peripheral base stations identical or other radio system networks, make at the locational interference level of new radio base station within the acceptable range.
And in the time of configuration TDD system, the base station configuration (set up) that needs test to propose, so that by being used identical measured signal power to guarantee that base station to the interference of base station within the acceptable range.
Therefore, by configuration device, so that it can receive TDD RBS downlink time slots as uplink time slot, TDD radio base station can be measured between the interior interference of radio access technologies and radio access technologies and disturb the reference as RAT intranet and coexistence of systems processing as tester.
Can be advantageously used in and process or improve the network planning of some in system problem in RAT and between RAT according to testing equipment of the present invention.
