本发明实施例的方法和装置在现有技术的基础上, 针对同一次切换, 通 过判决服务小区与邻区的信号质量, 决定是否下发多个切换命令, 保证 UE 能够及时收到切换命令, 增加切换成功率, 使 UE尽快在目标小区同步, 从 而减小切换时延, 增强切换过程中的用户体验。 附图概述
图 1为本发明实施方式中测量事件为 A3事件时的切换命令设置流程图; 图 2为本发明实施例 1切换命令下发处理流程图;
图 3为本发明实施例 3测量事件为 A5事件时的切换命令设置流程图。
本发明的较佳实施方式
下文中将结合附图对本发明的实施例进行详细说明。 需要说明的是, 在 不冲突的情况下, 本申请中的实施例及实施例中的特征可以相互任意组合。
对现有切换流程分析发现, 源 eNodeB给 UE下发切换命令后, 这时的 UE通常处于小区边缘,信号质量较差,很有可能发生 HARQ (混合自动重传) 或者 RLC (无线链路控制)层的重传, 很容易出现 UE收不到切换命令或者 收到切换命令过晚的现象。 而由于 LTE***切换属于后切换, 给 UE发送切 换命令时, 目标 eNodeB已给 UE分配好资源, 如果 UE收不到切换命令或者 收到切换命令过晚, 就无法同步到目标小区, 从而导致业务中断。
针对现有技术的这种情况, 本实施例提出以下方案:
源 eNB在确定 UE需要切换后, 根据所述 UE上报的测量报告确定向所 述 UE发送的切换命令的个数 N; 在所述 UE的切换过程中, 向所述 UE发送 N个切换命令。 N为 > 1的正整数。
如果首个切换命令由于小区信号质量等原因发生了 RLC 层重传或者 MAC层 HARQ重传, 这时如果有新的切换命令, 新的切换命令就有可能比 重传的切换命令更早被 UE收到,使 UE尽快在目标小区同步,从而减小切换 时延, 避免业务中断, 增强切换过程中的用户体验。
优选地, 源 eNB可以根据所述 UE上报的测量事件确定向所述 UE发送 的切换命令的个数 N, 或者, 根据所述 UE上报的测量事件以及当前服务小 区的信号质量确定向所述 UE发送的切换命令的个数 N。
具体地, 例如: UE上报的是 A5测量事件, 而 A5测量事件定义为服务 小区信号低于一个门限, 邻区信号高于一个门限。 这时说明该 UE服务小区 信号质量差, 邻区信号质量好, 则确定向 UE发送的切换命令个数 N > 2, 优 选为 N=3 , 即下发 3次切换命令给 UE。
如果 UE上报的是 A3测量事件, 而 A3测量事件定义为邻区信号质量参 数与服务小区信号质量参数之差大于一个门限。 这时服务小区信号不一定很 差, 则进一步根据 UE上报的当前服务小区的信号质量来确定发送切换命令 的个数, 原则是: 如果服务小区信号很好, 切换命令就不需要多次发送, 否 则多次下发切换命令。 具体地:
当 UE上报的测量事件为 A3 , 且 UE上报的当前服务小区的信号质量大 于第一门限, 则确定 N=A; 或者
当 UE上报的测量事件为 A3 , 且 UE上报的当前服务小区的信号质量小 于第一门限大于第二门限, 则确定 N=B; 或者
当 UE上报的测量事件为 A3 , 且 UE上报的当前服务小区的信号质量小 于第二门限, 则确定 N=C;
其中第一门限〉第二门限〉第三门限, 所述 A > B > C > 1。 优选地 A的 取值范围为 [3,5] , B的取值范围为 [2,3]
以 RSRP (参考信号接收功率)作为当前服务小区的信号质量为例进行 举例说明:
如果 UE的 RSRP大于 lOOdBm,则该 UE可能位于小区边缘,确定 N=3; 如果 UE的 RSRP小于 lOOdBm但大于 90dBm,则该 UE可能位于小区中 心和小区边缘之间 , 确定 N=2;
如果 UE的 RSRP小于 90dBm, 则该 UE可能位于小区中心, 确定 N=l。 执行时可釆用如图 1所示流程实现, 但也可以釆用其他流程实现。
除了釆用 RSRP之外, 在其他实施例中还可釆用 RSRQ (参考信号接收 质量)来作为当前服务小区的信号质量。 釆用 RSRQ时所使用的第一、 第二、 第三门限值, 可参考 RSRP的门限值。
实现上述方法的位于 eNB的装置包括切换命令个数确定模块和切换命令 发送模块, 其中:
所述切换命令个数确定模块, 设置为在确定 UE需要切换后, 根据该 UE 上报的测量报告确定向该 UE发送的切换命令的个数 N;
所述切换命令发送模块,设置为在该 UE的切换过程中, 向该 UE发送 N 个切换命令。
优选地, 所述切换命令个数确定模块是设置为釆用以下方式根据 UE上 报的测量报告确定向 UE发送的切换命令的个数 N:根据所述 UE上报的测量 事件确定向所述 UE发送的切换命令的个数 N,或者,根据所述 UE上报的测 量事件以及当前服务小区的信号质量确定向所述 UE发送的切换命令的个数 N。
优选地, 所述切换命令个数确定模块是设置为釆用以下方式根据 UE上 报的测量事件确定向 UE发送的切换命令的个数 N:当 UE上报的测量事件为 A5时, 所述切换命令个数确定模块确定向 UE发送的切换命令个数 N > 2, 优选 N=3。
优选地, 所述切换命令个数确定模块是设置为釆用以下方式根据 UE上 报的测量事件以及当前服务小区的信号质量确定向 UE发送的切换命令的个 数 N:
当 UE上报的测量事件为 A3 , 且 UE上报的当前服务小区的信号质量大 于第一门限, 则确定 N=A; 或者
当 UE上报的测量事件为 A3 , 且 UE上报的当前服务小区的信号质量小 于第一门限, 大于第二门限, 则确定 N=B; 或者
当 UE上报的测量事件为 A3 , 且 UE上报的当前服务小区的信号质量小 于第二门限, 则确定 N=C;
其中第一门限〉第二门限〉第三门限, 所述 A > B > C > 1。

步骤 150, 源 eNodeB判断 UE测量报告中的测量事件为 A3 ,且 UE上报 的服务小区的 RSRP值大于 lOOdBm, 则确定发送切换命令的次数为 3次; 步骤 160, 源 eNodeB根据确定的发送次数向 UE发送切换命令; 具体地, 源 eNodeB 可釆用定时器结合计数器的方式来实现, 例如源 eNodeB可以设置切换命令发送计数器(HoTime )总数为 3 , 以及一个时间长 度为 Ts的切换命令重发定时器, 釆用图 2所示流程实现, 包括:
步骤 a,源 eNodeB向 UE发送一个切换命令,切换命令发送计数器加一; 步骤 b , 启动切换命令重发定时器;
