Description

A kind of method and network equipment that checks the minimum road test configuration
Technical field
The present invention relates to the communications field, relate in particular to a kind of method and network equipment that checks the minimum road test configuration.
Background technology
Utilize special equipment to carry out cost and the complexity of artificial drive test in order to reduce operator, third generation partnership project (3GPP, Third Generation Partnership Projects) at universal land radio access web (UTRAN, Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network, comprise base station NodeB and radio network controller (RNC)) and the universal land radio access web (E-UTRAN of evolution, Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network, comprising evolution base station eNB) version 10 (Release-10) of system begins to introduce minimum road test (MDT, Minimization of Drive Test) function.Core net (the CN that UTRAN is corresponding, Core Network) comprises host-user server (HSS, Home Subscriber Server), Mobile Switching Center Server (MSC Server, Mobile Switching Centre Server), the GPRS Support Node (SGSN of service, Serving GPRS Support Node, GPRS-General Packet Radio Service-GPRS) etc.The core net CN that E-UTRAN is corresponding comprises host-user server HSS, mobile management entity (MME, Mobile Management Entity) etc.Minimum road test functional utilization subscriber equipment (UE, User Equipment, or be called terminal) automatically collect metrical information and report to wireless access network (RAN by chain of command (Control Plane) signaling, Radio Access Network, refer to RNC for the UTRAN system, refer to eNB for the E-UTRAN system), report to Operation ﹠ Maintenance System (OAM by wireless access network again, Operation And Maintenance) entity (TCE is collected in tracking, Trace Collection Entity), be used for the network optimization, for example find and solve network coverage problem.
The MDT function is divided into based on the MDT (Management based MDT) of management with based on the MDT (Signaling based MDT) of signaling.Based on the activation of MDT of management normally (take the E-UTRAN system as example, below all with) OAM (Operation and Maintenance or claim network management system) sends the tracking that comprises the MDT configuration and activates message (Trace session activation) to eNB, eNB selects suitable UE in the zone of this message specifies (Area), and described MDT configuration information is sent to the UE that chooses.To send the tracking that comprises the MDT configuration by OAM to activate message (Trace session activation) and measure to activate the MDT that specifies UE to HS S (Home Subscriber Server) based on the activation of the MDT of signaling, HSS sends to MME with the MDT configuration information of described UE, MME sends to eNB with the MDT configuration information of this UE, and eNB the most at last MDT configuration information sends to UE.MDT based on signaling uses IMSI International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI usually, International Mobile Subscriber Identity) or international mobile station device identification (IMEI, International Mobile Station Equipment Identity) specifies certain UE, or add that area information is with the selection of restriction UE.Based on track reference (Trace Reference) information that comprises in the MDT that manages and the MDT activation message based on signaling from OAM, comprising public land mobile network (Public Land Mobile Network, PLMN) information, by Mobile Country Code MCC (Mobile country code, MCC) and Mobile Network Code (Mobile Network code, MNC) form.
The MDT function is operated in Idle state and is operated in connected state according to it and can be divided into two kinds of mode of operations, is specially " record minimum road test (Logged MDT) " and " immediately minimum road test (immediate MDT) ".The record minimum road test refers to that UE controls idle condition at Radio Resource and (refers to the RRC_IDLE state for the E-UTRAN system; Also comprise cell _ paging channel state (CELL_PCH) and UTRAN Acceditation Area _ paging channel state (URA_PCH) for the UTRAN system).When the condition that configures satisfies, collect and the storage correlation measurement information reports when being used for receiving wireless access network (RAN) order request in the future, after wireless access network (RAN) is received described data, gather or directly be transmitted to TCE.Minimum road test refers to that UE (refers to the RRC_CONNECTED state for the E-UTRAN system at Radio Resource control connection state immediately; Refer to CELL _ DCH status (CELL_DCH) for the UTRAN system) time collect correlation measurement information and when report condition is satisfied in report active upload to wireless access network (RAN), after wireless access network (RAN) receives report, gather or directly report is passed to TCE.
