Background technology
User facility positioning method in cell mobile communication systems is described according to prior art below with reference to Fig. 1 and 2.3GPP (3G (Third Generation) Moblie partner plan) main honeycomb locating method at present is OTDOA+RTT (Observed Time Difference Of Arrival+Round Trip Time, observation arrives time difference+two-way time) method: dominant base measured by subscriber equipment and the adjacent base station adjacent with dominant base send information to the time difference (OTDOA) that reaches this subscriber equipment, thereby draw the range difference of two base stations to it, because the location aware of two base stations, just can obtain with these two base stations is a hyperbola of focus, as shown in Figure 1.Utilize two pairs or more base station just can obtain two or more hyperbola.In addition, utilize the main plot (because a dominant base can have a plurality of sub-districts, and what relate at this is main plot with respect to this subscriber equipment) subscriber equipment that records is to its two-way time (RTT), thereby drawing the distance between subscriber equipment and the main plot, is a circle in the center of circle thereby draw with the center, main plot.By means of two or more hyperbola and the intersection point that circle obtains, the position that just can draw subscriber equipment.
Fig. 2 is illustrated in subscriber equipment location signaling flow process in the 3GPP agreement.Because regularly life period is poor for the reception of subscriber equipment and transmission, and the transmission between the base station regularly also life period is poor, therefore to draw the two-way time that subscriber equipment is arrived to the real time difference and the main plot of subscriber equipment in two base stations, also need obtain two other parameter, promptly, relative time error (RTD) (that is, reference clock is poor) between subscriber equipment transmission-time of reception poor (UE Rx-Tx timing Difference) and base station.Calculate above-mentioned actual range difference and actual range by following formula:
Real time is poor=OTDOA-RTD (1)
Actual two-way time=RTT-UE Rx-Tx timing Difference (2)

From top description to prior art as seen, subscriber equipment will be undertaken measurement parameter UE Rx-Tx timing Difference and OTDOA in whole position fixing process.Therefore, two measurement mechanisms to be installed and be used for measuring respectively above-mentioned two parameters in subscriber equipment.Like this, increase the manufacturing cost and the power consumption of subscriber equipment greatly, and made the volume of subscriber equipment very much not be easy to carry.And in the location of cellular system, if it is the information that obtains is many more, accurately just high more to the location of subscriber equipment so.And it is not high enough only to measure precision from the information of circle and hyperbola acquisition.

Embodiment
By following description to preferred embodiment of the present invention, feature of the present invention, above-mentioned and other advantages will be apparent.Then, according to Fig. 3-6 first preferred embodiment of the present invention is described.Wherein, Fig. 3 is the signaling process figure according to the first embodiment of the present invention.Fig. 4 is the schematic diagram calculation according to the first embodiment of the present invention.Fig. 5 is according to oval positioning mode schematic diagram of the present invention.Fig. 6 is the method step flow chart according to the first embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in Figure 3, base station controller sends subscriber equipment transmitting-receiving time difference (UERx-Tx timing Difference) measurement, relative time poor (RTD) and measures request two-way time (RTT) to the main plot at subscriber equipment and Location Measurement Unit (LMU) and this subscriber equipment place respectively in response to the Location Request of core net.Wherein, UE Rx-Tx timing Difference represent the reception of subscriber equipment and send between time difference, RTD represent that the signal that reference time difference between main plot and the sub-district adjacent with this main plot and RTT represent the main plot turns back to the required time of main plot through subscriber equipment.Subsequently, subscriber equipment and LMU measure UE Rx-Tx timing Difference and RTD respectively and measurement result are reported base station controller.Then, base station controller sends transmission time and (TSOT) measurement request to neighbor cell.Neighbor cell is measured TSOT and measurement result is reported base station controller in response to this request.Yet because the reception of subscriber equipment and to send life period poor, and the reference clock of main plot and neighbor cell also has the time difference, so TSOT that records and RTT can not represent real transmission time and and real two-way time.Therefore, in the prior art, according to formula actual two-way time=record two-way time-subscriber equipment transmitting-receiving time difference, calculating the actual range of main plot and base station, is the circle in the center of circle thereby draw with the center, main plot.
And in the present invention, according to formula: the actual transmissions time and=measure the transmission time and-subscriber equipment transmitting-receiving time difference+relative time is poor, calculate the main plot by subscriber equipment arrive neighbor cell actual range and, be the ellipse of focus thereby draw with main plot and neighbor cell center.Because, according to geometric knowledge, between 2 positions and these 2 and the 3rd apart from sum, can draw with these 2 is the ellipse of focus.Therefore, after drawing circle and ellipse, draw the positional information of subscriber equipment by their intersection point, and have base station controller to report core net.
Below, with reference to Fig. 4, describe in detail the present invention calculate the actual transmissions time and the derivation of formula.Wherein, frame emission starting point regularly in main plot (CELL 1) is represented the reference clock of CELL 1, and neighbor cell (CELL 2) frame emission starting point is regularly represented the reference clock of CELL 2.CELL 1 sends a signal to subscriber equipment (UE) along down link, and begins down link CELL 1 frame emission simultaneously regularly.This signal begins down link UE received frame regularly simultaneously through arriving UE the path delay of time 1.UE transmits respectively to CELL 1 and CELL 2 along up link, and begins up link UE frame emission simultaneously regularly.Signal process arrival CELL 1 in the path delay of time 1, and begin the received frame timing of up link CELL 1 simultaneously.Equally, signal process arrival up link CELL 2 in the path delays of time 2, and begin the received frame timing of up link CELL 2 simultaneously.
From Fig. 4 as seen, because the reference time life period between CELL 1 and the CELL 2 is poor (promptly, the frame emission of down link CELL 1 among Fig. 4 regularly and the time difference of the frame emission of down link CELL2 between regularly), so the time difference between the two be the relative time difference RTD that LMU will measure.Be the actual signal transmission time between CELL 1 and the UE path delay of time 1 among Fig. 4, and be the path delay of time 2 in the actual signal transmission time between CELL 2 and the UE.And among the figure down link UE received frame regularly and the difference expression subscriber equipment of up link UE frame emission between regularly receive and send the time difference (UERx-Tx timing Difference).Because down link CELL 2 frame emissions starting point is regularly represented the reference clock of CELL 2, thus it with the time difference of up link CELL 2 received frames between regularly promptly represent the measured signal of CELL2 from CELL 1 downlink to UE and sent along up link by UE transmission time of arriving CELL2 with (TSOT).Obviously, this TSOT and be not equal to the actual transmission time and.We are easy to draw following formula from Fig. 4:
Real time and=path delay of time 1+ 2=TSOT+RTD-UE in path delay of time Rx-Tx timingdifference.(3)
According to the UE Rx-Tx timingdifferenc, the TSOT that record by subscriber equipment, neighbor cell and LMU respectively and RTD just can draw the main plot send signal through subscriber equipment arrive neighbor cell time and, be the ellipse of focus thereby just can draw with main plot and neighbor cell center according to geometric knowledge.As shown in Figure 5.
Get back to Fig. 4, we can also draw the actual two-way time between main plot and subscriber equipment, and are specific as follows.Be that CELL 1 transmission signal turns back to CELL 1 through subscriber equipment the two-way time that the main plot records (RTT), that is, and and the starting point from down link CELL 1 frame emission starting point regularly to the timing of up link CELL 1 received frame.And should be 1+ path delay of time 1 in the path delay of time actual two-way time, thus draw formula:
Actual two-way time=RTT-UE Rx-Tx timing difference (4)
Like this, calculate the actual range between main plot and the subscriber equipment, thereby the center that can draw with the main plot has been the circle in the center of circle.Utilize intersection point oval and circle, just can draw the correct locating information of subscriber equipment.Certainly, can utilize localization method of the present invention calculate between main plot and a plurality of neighbor cell actual range and, thereby draw a plurality of ellipses, can improve computational accuracy like this.
If system is very high to the positioning accuracy request of subscriber equipment, also need further locating information, can calculate subscriber equipment so according to the present invention dexterously and send information to time difference between main plot and the neighbor cell respectively.Get back to Fig. 4, according to formula:
Real time is poor=path delay of time 2-1=TSOT-RTT+RTD in the path delay of time, (5)
Calculating the range difference of main plot and neighbor cell and subscriber equipment, is the hyperbola of focus and draw with main plot and neighbor cell center.Can accurately draw the locating information of subscriber equipment according to the intersection point of hyperbola, ellipse and circle.
Fig. 6 shows the flow chart of steps according to first preferred embodiment of the present invention.At first, positional parameter such as subscriber equipment, main plot and neighbor cell measurement UE Rx-Tx timing difference, RTT and RTD and report base station controller (S61).In step S62, base station controller request neighbor cell measurement TSOT.Base station controller also sends to above-mentioned neighbor cell (S63) with the identification information of subscriber equipment.This identification information comprises scrambler number, so that neighbor cell can be discerned the information from subscriber equipment to be positioned.In step S64, neighbor cell measurement TSOT also reports base station controller in step S65.In step S66, according to the positional parameter that records calculate the actual transmissions time and and actual two-way time, thereby draw ellipse and circle, if necessary, also can calculate hyperbola with locating user devices.It should be noted that, measuring the step of UE Rx-Tx timing Difference, RTT and RTD and measurement TSOT can exchange, the present invention does not emphasize the sequencing (that is, the order between step S61 and the step S62-S65 can be exchanged) between them.
From the first embodiment of the present invention as seen, the present invention unlike the prior art be to need not subscriber equipment and measure time difference that main plot and neighbor cell transmit a signal to subscriber equipment and calculate them and come locating user devices with the hyperbola that draws from the range difference of subscriber equipment.But by the neighbor cell measurement main plot send the information via subscriber equipment arrive neighbor cell transmission time and, calculate between them distance and, come locating user devices thereby draw ellipse.Like this, just need not in subscriber equipment, to install and measure the time difference device, thereby reduced the volume and the manufacturing cost of subscriber equipment.If also need further locating information, also can be by known parameter, obtain range difference between main plot and neighbor cell and the subscriber equipment dexterously by formula, thereby draw hyperbola.As seen, still need not subscriber equipment by method of the present invention and install and measure device and can draw hyperbola, and oval, circle adds hyp locating information and more improved positioning accuracy.
Below, with reference to Fig. 7 and 8 second preferred embodiment of the present invention is described.In second preferred embodiment of the present invention, compared with prior art, do not change user device architecture, that is, subscriber equipment is still measured main plot and neighbor cell and is sent information to its time difference.But second preferred embodiment of the present invention increased obtain the main plot through subscriber equipment arrive neighbor cell distance and, thereby draw oval locating information.Also can be poor by the real time that records as formula (5), OTDOA is revised.Increase locating information like this, thereby improved positioning accuracy.
Fig. 7 is signaling process figure according to a second embodiment of the present invention.Fig. 8 is a method step flow chart according to a second embodiment of the present invention.From Fig. 7 as seen, compared with prior art, the second embodiment of the present invention has increased the request of base station controller request neighbor cell measurement TSOT.Neighbor cell is measured TSOT and is reported base station controller in response to this request.Thereby obtain oval locating information.
With reference to Fig. 8, at first, measure positional parameters (S81) such as OTDOA, RTT, RTD and UE Rx-Tx timing Difference.Then, need to judge whether further metrical information (S82).If, neighbor cell measurement TSOT in step S83-S86 so, and report base station controller, its concrete steps are described identical with first embodiment, do not repeat them here.Calculate oval, hyperbola and round then to determine the position (S87) of subscriber equipment.If the judged result in step S82 is not need further metrical information, so directly enter step S87.
As seen, by the second embodiment of the present invention, strengthened locating accuracy.Certainly,, can omit the determining step S82 among Fig. 8 so, and measure the isoparametric step of OTDOA, RTT and do not have strict sequencing requirement with the step of measuring TSOT if system is very high to positioning requirements.
Fig. 9 is according to the present invention, based on the oval positioning mode schematic diagram of the different districts of dominant base.It shows oval a kind of special circumstances, and promptly main plot and the neighbor cell center thereof with dominant base is the ellipse of focus.
More than be the description to preferred embodiment of the present invention, those skilled in the art that should be understood that according to design of the present invention and principle, and the various variations of embodiment are all dropped in the scope of the present invention that is limited by appended claims.
