Description

一种驻留节点的选择方法及用户设备 技术领域
本发明实施例涉及通信技术领域,具体涉及一种驻留节点的选择方法及用户设备。
背景技术
异构网络是指在传统基站覆盖的宏小区范围内,根据需求部署一个或者多个微小区基站,用于小范围的热点覆盖等。其中,微小区基站为低发射功率的无线接入节点(简称低功率节点,Low Power Nodes,LPN),宏小区基站为高发射功率接入节点(简称高功率节点,High Power Nodes,HPN)。LPN与HPN共享移动通信***的专用频段,从而可以提高整个***的吞吐量以及整体频谱利用率。
在异构网络中,用户设备(User Equipment,UE)在选择驻留节点时,由于LPN的发射功率远远低于HPN的发射功率,如果采用传统的最大参考信号接收功率(Reference Signal Receiving Power,RSRP)策略(即UE选择RSRP最大的节点作为驻留节点),就会有较多的UE驻留至HPN,使得***不能充分发挥部署LPN所带来的改善能效和提升吞吐量的作用。为了充分利用这些资源同时减少HPN的负载,第三代合作伙伴(3rdGeneration Partnership Project,3GPP)讨论组提出了CRE(Cell Region Expansion,小区区域扩展)的概念,即在LPN的接收功率上加一个偏置值,这样HPN的边缘UE就会有更大的机会驻留至LPN。
现有技术中,部分技术设置节点的偏置值的过程为:初始时各节点的偏置值均为0,当LPN中的UE数量小于该节点的预设门限值时,就增大该节点的偏置值,当HPN中的UE数量大于该节点的预设门限值时,就降低该节点的偏置值,直到HPN与LPN之间的负载达到平衡。通过这种方式在一定程度上平衡了HPN与LPN之间的负载,但是LPN之间仍然存在负载均衡度较低的问题,主要表现为部分LPN的负载较重,难以避免对周围其余节点的通信产生干扰,而部 分LPN的负载较轻,其通信资源则难以得到有效利用。
发明内容
本发明实施例公开了一种驻留节点的选择方法及用户设备,能够提高各节点之间的负载均衡度。
本发明实施例第一方面公开了一种驻留节点的选择方法,包括:
用户设备对每个待测节点进行信号测量,获取全部待测节点的参考信号接收功率RSRP,其中,待测节点为用户设备在当前驻留节点中所能检测到信号的节点,该待测节点可以为一个,也可以为多个,包括低功率节点和高功率节点;
所述用户设备从所述全部待测节点中选取待选节点集合,并获取所述待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息,其中,所述每个待选节点的RSRP大于预设门限;
所述用户设备根据所述每个待选节点的节点状态信息获得所述每个待选节点的偏置值Bias;
所述用户设备从所述待选节点集合中选取所述RSRP与所述Bias之和最大的待选节点作为驻留节点。
可见,用户设备可以根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息设置每个待选节点的偏置值,在使用最大参考信号接收功率策略选择驻留节点时,能够通过偏置值调整每个待选节点被选作驻留节点的概率,从而能够平衡高功率节点与低功率节点以及低功率节点之间的负载,提高各节点的负载均衡度和通信网络***的资源利用率。
可选的,所述节点状态信息可以包括所述每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η、等效发射功率PTE、等效传输成本ME以及回传链路修正因子S,那么所述用户设备根据所述每个待选节点的节点状态信息获得所述每个待选节点的偏置值Bias的具体方式可以为:
根据所述每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η、等效发射功率PTE、等效传输成本ME以及回传链路修正因子S计算所述每个待选节点的偏置值Bias,即
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000001
其中,k为归一化系数。
可见,通过上述方式计算出的偏置值,高功率节点的偏置值较小,而低功率节点的偏置值较大,在低功率节点之间,也可以根据其回传链路的可靠性来调节低功率节点的偏置值,从而在一定程度上平衡了各节点之间的负载。
可选的,所述用户设备获取所述待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息的具体方式可以为:
针对所述待选节点集合中的每个待选节点,获取所述每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η、发射功率、传输成本以及使用的回传链路类型,其中,所述回传链路类型可以包括有线回传链路以及无线回传链路;
当所述每个待选节点使用有线回传链路时,将所述发射功率作为所述每个待选节点的等效发射功率PTE,并将所述传输成本作为所述每个待选节点的等效传输成本ME;或者,
当所述每个待选节点使用无线回传链路时,获取所述无线回传链路的中继节点集合以及所述中继节点集合中每个中继节点的发射功率和传输成本;
将所述中继节点集合中全部中继节点的发射功率与所述每个待选节点的发射功率之和作为所述每个待选节点的等效发射功率PTE,并将所述全部中继节点的传输成本与所述每个待选节点的传输成本之和作为所述每个待选节点的等效传输成本ME
需要说明的是,如果待选节点使用的是有线回传链路,那么用户设备在计算该待选节点的偏置值时,对应的回传链路修正因子S可以取1;而如果待选节点使用的是无线回传链路,那么用户设备在计算该待选节点的偏置值时,用户设备可以进一步获取该无线回传链路中的中继节点的数量N,对应的回传链路修正因子S可以通过
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000002
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000003
等方式计算得到。也就是说,使用无线回传链路的节点的回传链路修正因子S会随着中继节点的数量N的增加而减小,其具体的计算方式本发明实施例在此不做限定。
可见,通过上述方式得到的节点状态信息中,使用有线回传链路的待选节点的等效发射功率和等效传输成本,均小于使用无线回传链路的待选节点的等 效发射功率和等效传输成本,而使用有线回传链路的待选节点的回传链路修正因子要比使用无线回传链路的待选节点的回传链路修正因子大。可以得出,使用有线回传链路的待选节点的偏置值要比使用无线回传链路的待选节点的偏置值大,从而可以增加使用有线回传链路的待选节点被选作驻留节点的概率。
可选的,各节点的剩余资源比例η受各节点使用的回传链路类型的影响。因此,各节点计算其剩余资源比例η的方式与待选节点计算其剩余资源比例η的方式相同,具体可以为:
当所述每个待选节点使用所述有线回传链路时,所述每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η为
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000004
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000005
中的最小值;或者,
当所述每个待选节点使用所述无线回传链路时,所述每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η为所述中继节点集合中的源中继节点的剩余资源比例η';
其中,C为所述有线回传链路的剩余可用容量,C0为所述每个待选节点所在的网络***中回传链路的总容量参考值,W为所述每个待选节点的可用载波剩余带宽,W0为所述网络***的载波总带宽参考值。
当然,由于剩余资源比例η可以是由各个节点上传至***信息块中的,那么每个节点在计算各自的剩余资源比例时,均可以采用上述计算方式。可见,通过上述方式得到的剩余资源比例,能够较为真实客观的反映每个节点承载新业务的能力。
可选的,所述用户设备从所述待选节点集合中选取所述RSRP与所述Bias之和最大的待选节点作为驻留节点之后,所述方法还包括:
所述用户设备向所述驻留节点发送驻留请求;
所述用户设备判断在预设时间段内是否接收到所述驻留节点针对所述驻留请求返回的允许驻留通知;
当在所述预设时间段内接收到所述允许驻留通知时,所述用户设备驻留至所述驻留节点。
可选的,所述方法还包括:
当在所述预设时间段内未接收到所述允许驻留通知时,所述用户设备将所述驻留节点从所述待选节点集合中删除;
所述用户设备判断所述驻留节点删除后的待选节点集合是否为空,若否,则返回执行所述从所述待选节点集合中选取所述RSRP与所述Bias之和最大的待选节点作为驻留节点的步骤。
本发明实施例第二方面公开了一种用户设备,包括:
处理模块,用于对每个待测节点进行信号测量,获取全部待测节点的参考信号接收功率RSRP;
所述处理模块,还用于从所述全部待测节点中选取待选节点集合,所述待选节点集合中的每个待选节点的所述RSRP大于预设门限;
所述处理模块,还用于获取所述待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息;
所述处理模块,还用于根据所述每个待选节点的节点状态信息获得所述每个待选节点的偏置值Bias;
所述处理模块,还用于从所述待选节点集合中选取所述RSRP与所述Bias之和最大的待选节点作为驻留节点。
可见,用户设备可以根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息设置每个待选节点的偏置值,在使用最大参考信号接收功率策略选择驻留节点时,能够通过偏置值调整每个待选节点被选作驻留节点的概率,从而能够平衡高功率节点与低功率节点以及低功率节点之间的负载,提高各节点的负载均衡度和通信网络***的资源利用率。
可选的,所述处理模块获取所述待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息的具体方式可以为:
获取所述待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息,所述节点状态信息包括所述每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η、等效发射功率PTE、等效传输成本ME以及回传链路修正因子S;
所述处理模块根据所述每个待选节点的节点状态信息获得所述每个待选节点的偏置值Bias的具体方式可以为:
根据所述每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η、等效发射功率PTE、等效传输成本ME以及回传链路修正因子S计算所述每个待选节点的偏置值Bias,即
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000006
其中,k为归一化系数。
可见,通过上述方式计算出的偏置值,高功率节点的偏置值较小,而低功率节点的偏置值较大,在低功率节点之间,也可以根据其回传链路的可靠性来调节低功率节点的偏置值,从而在一定程度上平衡了各节点之间的负载。
可选的,所述处理模块获取所述待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息的具体方式可以为:
针对所述待选节点集合中的每个待选节点,获取所述每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η、发射功率、传输成本以及使用的回传链路类型,其中,所述回传链路类型包括有线回传链路以及无线回传链路;
当所述每个待选节点使用有线回传链路时,将所述发射功率作为所述每个待选节点的等效发射功率PTE,并将所述传输成本作为所述每个待选节点的等效传输成本ME;或者,
当所述每个待选节点使用无线回传链路时,获取所述无线回传链路的中继节点集合以及所述中继节点集合中每个中继节点的发射功率和传输成本;
将所述中继节点集合中全部中继节点的发射功率与所述每个待选节点的发射功率之和作为所述每个待选节点的等效发射功率PTE,并将所述全部中继节点的传输成本与所述每个待选节点的传输成本之和作为所述每个待选节点的等效传输成本ME
需要说明的是,如果待选节点使用的是有线回传链路,那么用户设备在计算该待选节点的偏置值时,对应的回传链路修正因子S可以取1;而如果待选节点使用的是无线回传链路,那么用户设备在计算该待选节点的偏置值时,用户设备可以进一步获取该无线回传链路中的中继节点的数量N,对应的回传链路修正因子S可以通过
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000007
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000008
等方式计算得到。也就是说,使用无线回传链路的节点的回传链路修正因子S会随着中继节点的数量N的增加而减小,其具体的计算方式本发明实施例在此不做限定。
可见,通过上述方式得到的节点状态信息中,使用有线回传链路的待选节点的等效发射功率和等效传输成本,均小于使用无线回传链路的待选节点的等 效发射功率和等效传输成本,而使用有线回传链路的待选节点的回传链路修正因子要比使用无线回传链路的待选节点的回传链路修正因子大。可以得出,使用有线回传链路的待选节点的偏置值要比使用无线回传链路的待选节点的偏置值大,从而可以增加使用有线回传链路的待选节点被选作驻留节点的概率。
可选的,各节点的剩余资源比例η受各节点使用的回传链路类型的影响。因此,各节点计算其剩余资源比例η的方式与待选节点计算其剩余资源比例η的方式相同,具体可以为:
当所述每个待选节点使用所述有线回传链路时,所述每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η为
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000009
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000010
中的最小值;或者,
当所述每个待选节点使用所述无线回传链路时,所述每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η为所述中继节点集合中的源中继节点的剩余资源比例η';
其中,C为所述有线回传链路的剩余可用容量,C0为所述每个待选节点所在的网络***中回传链路的总容量参考值,W为所述每个待选节点的可用载波剩余带宽,W0为所述网络***的载波总带宽参考值。
当然,由于剩余资源比例η可以是由各个节点上传至***信息块中的,那么每个节点在计算各自的剩余资源比例时,均可以采用上述计算方式。可见,通过上述方式得到的剩余资源比例,能够较为真实客观的反映每个节点承载新业务的能力。
可选的,所述用户设备还可以包括发送模块以及接收模块,其中:
所述发送模块,用于向所述驻留节点发送驻留请求;

具体实施方式
下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本发明一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本发明保护的范围。
本发明实施例公开了一种驻留节点的选择方法及用户设备,能够提高各节点之间的负载均衡度。以下分别进行详细说明。
为了更好理解的本发明实施例公开的一种驻留节点的选择方法及用户设备,下面先对本发明实施例适用的网络架构进行描述。请参阅图1,图1是本发明实施例公开的一种网络架构示意图。在图1所示的网络架构中,可以包括宏小区基站(也称高功率节点,即图1所示的c)、微小区基站(也称低功率节点,即图1所示的a和b)以及用户设备(即图1所示的d),低功率节点和用户设备在高功率节点的覆盖范围内随机分布,高功率节点和低功率节点可以使用相同的频谱资源,用户设备在选择驻留节点时,既可以选择高功率节点,又可以选择低功率节点。图1所示的a为使用有线回传链路的低功率节点,b为使用无线回传链路的低功率节点,f为无线回传链路,用于实现从b到a的无线回传,g为用户设备业务的通信链路,用于实现用户设备到各节点的通信连接。用户设备可以包括但不限于移动手机、平板电脑、个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant,PDA)、移动互联网设备(Mobile Internet Device,MID)等。
通过实施图1所示的网络架构,各节点会将各自的发射功率、使用的回传链路类型等节点状态信息上传至通信网络的***信息块中,用户设备在选择驻留节点时,会通过通信链路从***信息块中获取各节点的节点状态信息,以便用户设备能够根据各节点的节点状态信息计算出各节点的偏置值,然后用户设备通过给各节点对应的参考信号接收功率加上一个偏置值,并结合最大参考信号接收功率策略来实现较为均匀地选择驻留节点。
基于图1所示的网络架构,本发明实施例公开了一种驻留节点的选择方法。请参阅图2,图2是本发明实施例公开的一种驻留节点的选择方法的流程示意图。如图2所示,该驻留节点的选择方法可以包括以下步骤:
S201、用户设备对每个待测节点进行信号测量,获取全部待测节点的参考信号接收功率RSRP。
本发明实施例中,用户设备可以每间隔一段时间就对周围的待测节点进行信号测量,从而找出最合适的驻留节点,也可以在接收到通信网络***的指示后对周围的待测节点进行信号测量,还可以在当前驻留节点的信号接收强度(即参考信号接收功率)低于预设信号强度时对周围的待测节点进行信号测量,本发明实施例不做限定。
本发明实施例中,待测节点为用户设备在当前驻留节点中所能检测到信号的节点,该待测节点可以为一个,也可以为多个,包括低功率节点和高功率节点。用户设备在对每个待测节点进行信号测量之后,会得到全部待测节点对应的参考信号接收功率(Reference Signal Receiving Power,RSRP)。
S202、用户设备从全部待测节点中选取RSRP大于预设门限的待选节点集合,并获取待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息。
本发明实施例中,用户设备在对每个待测节点进行信号测量之后,会从所有的待测节点中选取RSRP大于预设门限的待测节点组成待选节点集合。其中,该预设门限可以是每个待测节点的RSRP门限,也可以是每个用户设备的RSRP门限,本发明实施例不做限定。
本发明实施例中,用户设备在选取出待选节点集合后,会获取待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息。其中,该节点状态信息可以包括但不限于每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η、等效发射功率PTE、等效传输成本ME以及回传链路修正因子S。
作为一种可行的实施方式,用户设备获取待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息的具体方式可以包括以下步骤:
步骤11)针对待选节点集合中的每个待选节点,获取该待选节点的剩余资源比例η、发射功率、传输成本以及使用的回传链路类型。
具体实现中,各节点会将各自的发射功率、剩余资源比例η和节点类型信息上传至通信网络的***信息块中,并在***信息块中的及时更新各自的剩余资源比例η。那么用户设备在从所有待测节点中选取出待选节点集合后,就会从***信息块中获取待选节点集合中每个待选节点的发射功率以及剩余资源比例η,并通过获取每个待选节点的节点类型信息得到该待选节点使用的回传链路类型。其中,回传链路类型可以包括有线回传链路和无线回传链路。
需要说明的是,每个待选节点使用的节点类型可以是用户设备在获取每个待选节点的节点类型信息后,对节点类型信息进行分析得到的,也可以是用户设备直接从***信息块中的节点类型信息中获取到的,本发明实施例不做限定。
而每个待选节点的传输成本可以是用户设备从***信息块中获取的,也可以是用户设备根据经验值估计得到,具体为:用户设备可以根据每个待选节点 使用的回传链路的类型,得到每个待选节点的传输成本,如使用同一类型的回传链路的待选节点的传输成本相等;为了便于计算,用户设备也可以将通信网络***中所有的低功率节点的传输成本视为相等,本发明实施例不做限定。
步骤12)当该待选节点使用有线回传链路时,将该发射功率作为该待选节点的等效发射功率PTE,并将该传输成本作为该待选节点的等效传输成本ME
具体的,在异构网络***中,难以确保所有的节点均配备有较为理想的回传链路(即有线回传链路),所以非理想回传链路(也就是本文所提到的无线回传)的影响是异构网络场景中无法回避的问题。非理想回传会限制节点所能实现的吞吐,降低节点的通信质量,并会带来较大的传输功耗开销。因此,用户设备在获取到待选节点集合中每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η、发射功率、传输成本以及使用的回传链路类型后,如果该待选节点使用的是有线回传链路,该待选节点的等效发射功率PTE即为该待选节点的发射功率,而该待选节点的等效传输成本ME即为该待选节点的传输成本。
一般情况下,高功率节点使用的是有线回传链路,而使用有线回传链路的节点也可能为低功率节点。
步骤13)或者说,当该待选节点使用无线回传链路时,获取该无线回传链路的中继节点集合以及中继节点集合中每个中继节点的发射功率和传输成本。
具体实现中,当该待选节点使用无线回传链路时,用户设备在获取该待选节点的剩余资源比例η、发射功率、传输成本基础上,还会进一步获取该待选节点的无线回传链路中由中继节点组成中继节点集合以及该中继节点集合中每个中继节点的发射功率和传输成本。由于使用无线回传链路的节点为低功率节点,而无线回传链路中的中继节点通常也为低功率节点,所以用户设备可以视为所有低功率节点的发射功率相等,且所有低功率节点的传输成本相等,本发明实施例不做限定。其中,中继节点即为无线回传链路中为接入节点(该待选节点)提供中继的节点,在一定程度上,该中继节点自身也可以为接入节点。
需要说明的是,当该待选节点使用的是无线回传链路时,获取该无线回传链路的中继节点集合以及中继节点集合中每个中继节点的发射功率和传输成本的步骤,可以和获取该待选节点的剩余资源比例η、发射功率、传输成本以 及使用的回传链路类型的步骤同时执行,本发明实施例不做限定。
步骤14)将该中继节点集合中全部中继节点的发射功率与该待选节点的发射功率之和作为该待选节点的等效发射功率PTE,并将所有中继节点的传输成本与该待选节点的传输成本之和作为该待选节点的等效传输成本ME
具体的,用户设备在获取到该待选节点的节点状态信息之后,如果该待选节点使用无线回传链路,其等效发射功率PTE即为该待选节点的无线回传链路中所有中继节点的发射功率与该待选节点的发射功率之和,而该待选节点的等效传输成本也为该待选节点的无线回传链路中所有中继节点的传输成本与该待选节点的传输成本之和。
作为另一种可能的实现方式,各节点的剩余资源比例η受各节点使用的回传链路类型的影响。因此,各节点计算其剩余资源比例η的方式与待选节点计算其剩余资源比例η的方式相同,具体可以为:
当该待选节点使用有线回传链路时,该待选节点的剩余资源比例η为
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000011
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000012
中的最小值;或者,
当该待选节点使用无线回传链路时,该待选节点的剩余资源比例η为中继节点集合中的源中继节点的剩余资源比例η'。
其中,C表征的是该待选节点的有线回传链路的剩余可用容量,C0表征的是该待选节点所在的网络***中回传链路的总容量参考值,W表征的是该待选节点的可用载波剩余带宽,W0表征的是网络***的载波总带宽参考值。
需要说明的是,所有节点(包括所有待测节点以及所有非待测节点)在计算各自的剩余资源比例时,W0的取值相等。具体的,W0既可以为网络***的载波总带宽,也可以为任意节点的载波总带宽,也就是说,W0仅为网络***总带宽的参考值,其具体取值本发明实施例不做限定。
针对某一节点来说,当该节点使用有线回传链路时,该节点会从有线回传链路的剩余可用容量与网络***的总容量参考值的比值,和该节点的可用载波剩余带宽与网络***的载波总带宽参考值的比值中,选取最小值作为该节点的剩余资源比例η。对于使用有线回传链路的节点来说,回传链路剩余可用容量 和节点的剩余可用带宽均会影响该节点承载新业务的能力,因此,取两者中的较小值较能真实的反映该节点承载新业务的能力。
而当该节点使用无线回传链路时,由于其承载新业务的能力不仅取决于其自身,还取决于无线回传链路中为该节点提供中继的各中继节点承载新业务的能力。因此,本方案在考虑该节点的剩余资源比例时,可以将无线回传链路中的源中继节点的剩余资源比例η'作为该节点的剩余资源比例η。其中,源中继节点为在无线回传链路中离该节点最远的中继节点,该源中继节点本身为使用有线回传链路的节点。因此,可以通过上述得到使用有线回传链路的节点的剩余资源比例的方式,得到该源中继节点的剩余资源比例η',本发明实施例在此不再赘述。
进一步的,在未给无线回传划分专用频带的网络场景中,对于使用无线回传链路的节点而言,其回传链路容量剩余比例与为其提供无线回传的中继节点的载波资源可用比例相同,而对应业务在中继节点处也会有对应的载波资源开销。因此,将此类型的节点的源中继节点的剩余资源比例η'作为该节点的剩余资源比例η更能反映该节点的负载情况。
一般情况下,使用有线回传链路的节点可以为使用无线回传链路的节点提供中继,而使用无线回传链路的节点不能为使用有线回传链路的节点提供中继,当然,使用无线回传链路的节点之间是可以提供中继的。本发明实施例可以但不限于应用在一个节点只使用一条回传链路的场景下。
S203、用户设备根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息获得该待选节点的偏置值Bias。
本发明实施例中,用户设备在获取到待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息后,会根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息分别获得各自的偏置值Bias。
可选的,用户设备根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息获得该节点的偏置值Bias的具体方式可以为:
根据每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η、等效发射功率PTE、等效传输成本ME以及回传链路修正因子S计算该待选节点的偏置值Bias。计算公式如下:
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000013
其中,k为归一化系数,为一个固定值,用于统一等效传输成本ME和等效发射功率PTE的量纲。
本发明实施例中,剩余资源比例η在一定程度上可以反映该待选节点的负载,回传链路修正因子S主要反映的是回传链路的可靠性。在S*η一定的情况下,待选节点的等效发射功率PTE或者等效传输成本ME越大,该待选节点的偏置值越小;而在等效发射功率PTE或者等效传输成本ME一定的情况下,待选节点的剩余资源比例η越大,该待选节点对应的偏置值也越大。
需要说明的是,如果待选节点使用的是有线回传链路,那么用户设备在计算该待选节点的偏置值时,对应的回传链路修正因子S可以取1;而如果待选节点使用的是无线回传链路,那么用户设备在计算该待选节点的偏置值时,用户设备可以进一步获取该无线回传链路中的中继节点的数量N,对应的回传链路修正因子S可以通过
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000014
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000015
计算得到。也就是说,使用无线回传链路的节点的回传链路修正因子S会随着中继节点的数量N的增加而减小,其具体的计算方式本发明实施例在此不做限定。
另外,对于低功率节点来说,假设各低功率节点的发射功率和传输成本均相同,使用有线回传链路的节点的等效发射功率和等效传输成本均比使用无线回传链路的节点的等效发射功率和等效传输成本要小,且使用有线回传链路的节点的回传链路修正因子也比使用无线回传链路的节点的回传链路修正因子要大。因此,在各低功率节点的发射功率、传输成本相同的基础上,使用有线回传链路的节点的偏置值Bias要大,因而在一定程度上被用户设备选作驻留节点的概率要比使用无线回传链路的节点大。
本发明实施例中,用户设备在计算待选节点集合中每个待选节点的偏置值时,引入了节点的发射功率(即传输功耗)、传输成本等因素,在本发明实施例的计算方法中,过大的发射功率或过高的成本开销均会降低该待选节点的偏置值,从而在客观上降低了用户设备选择此类节点作为驻留节点的概率,同时在一定程度上提升了通信网络***的能效以及成本效率性能。
进一步的,在计算每个待选节点的偏置值时,用户设备还考虑了该待选节点使用的回传链路类型,通过等效发射功率PTE、等效传输成本ME、剩余资源 比例η以及回传链路修正因子S这四个参数,从负载、传输质量、功耗及成本开销四个方面对回传可能造成的影响进行了表征。从上述偏置值的计算公式中可以看出,回传能力不足、回传质量欠佳、回传功耗较大以及回传成本开销较高的待选节点的偏置值较小,从而被用户设备选作驻留节点的概率就相对较低。
在计算剩余资源比例η时,联合考虑了回传资源及接入资源两方面的影响,有利于避免回传能力不足的待选节点承载过多业务。同时,在计算使用有线回传链路的待选节点的剩余资源比例η时,取该待选节点的回传链路中剩余可用容量与总容量参考值的比值,和可用载波剩余带宽与载波总带宽参考值的比值中的最小值,能够较为直观的反映该待选节点承载新业务的能力。
S204、用户设备从待选节点集合中选取RSRP与Bias之和最大的待选节点作为驻留节点。
本发明实施例中,用户设备在获取到全部待选节点的偏置值之后,就会从待选节点集合中选取参考信号接收功率与偏置值之和最大的待选节点作为驻留节点,即ServingCell=arg max{Biasj+RSRPj}。
其中,Biasj为待选节点集合中待选节点j的偏置值,RSRPj为待选节点集合中待选节点j的参考信号接收功率。
可见,在图2所描述的方法中,用户设备在对每个待测节点进行信号测量,获取全部待测节点的参考信号接收功率之后,会从全部待测节点中选取参考信号接收功率大于预设参考信号接收功率门限的待选节点集合,并获取待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息,根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息得到各自的偏置值,最后从该选节点集合中选取参考信号接收功率与偏置值之和最大的待选节点作为驻留节点。实施本发明实施例,用户设备可以根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息设置每个待选节点的偏置值,在使用最大参考信号接收功率策略选择驻留节点时,能够通过偏置值调整每个待选节点被选作驻留节点的概率,从而能够平衡高功率节点与低功率节点以及低功率节点之间的负载,提高各节点的负载均衡度和通信网络***的资源利用率。
基于图1所示的网络架构,本发明实施例公开了另一种驻留节点的选择方 法。请参阅图3,图3是本发明实施例公开的一种驻留节点的选择方法的流程示意图。如图3所示,该驻留节点的选择方法可以包括以下步骤:
S301、用户设备对每个待测节点进行信号测量,获取全部待测节点的参考信号接收功率RSRP。
S302、用户设备从全部待测节点中选取RSRP大于预设门限的待选节点集合,并获取待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息。
S303、用户设备根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息获得该待选节点的偏置值Bias。
S304、用户设备从待选节点集合中选取RSRP与Bias之和最大的待选节点作为驻留节点,并向该驻留节点发送驻留请求。
本发明实施例中,用户设备在根据节点状态信息获取到全部待选节点的偏置值Bias后,就会从待选节点集合中选取参考信号接收功率与偏置值之和最大的待选节点,以作为驻留节点。同时,用户设备还会向该驻留节点发送驻留请求。
S305、用户设备判断在预设时间段内是否接收到该驻留节点针对该驻留请求返回的允许驻留通知,若是,执行步骤S306;若否,执行步骤S307~步骤S308。
本发明实施例中,当用户设备向该驻留节点发送驻留请求后,驻留节点如果接收到该驻留请求,会向该用户设备返回该驻留请求的响应,即是否允许该用户设备驻留至该驻留节点的通知消息。因此,用户设备会判断在发送驻留请求后的预设时间段内是否接收到该驻留节点返回的允许驻留的通知。如果接收到,用户设备就会驻留至该驻留节点;如果未接收到,或者接收到该驻留节点返回的拒绝驻留的通知,那么用户设备就会从待选节点集合中删除该驻留节点(即当前待选节点集合中RSRP与Bias之和最大的待选节点)。
S306、用户设备驻留至该驻留节点,并结束本流程。
本发明实施例中,当用户设备在发送驻留请求后的预设时间段内接收到该驻留节点返回的允许驻留通知时,用户设备就会驻留至该驻留节点。
S307、用户设备将该驻留节点从待选节点集合中删除。
本发明实施例中,当用户设备在发送驻留请求后的预设时间段内未接收到该驻留节点返回的允许驻留通知,或者在发送驻留请求后的预设时间段内接收 到该驻留节点返回的拒绝驻留通知时,用户设备可以将该驻留节点从待选节点集合中删除,以便用户设备再继续从待选节点集合中选取参考信号接收功率和偏置值最大的待选节点以作为驻留节点。
S308、用户设备判断该驻留节点删除后的待选节点集合是否为空,若是,结束本流程;若否,返回执行步骤S304。
本发明实施例中,用户设备将该驻留节点从待选节点集合中删除后,可以判断删除该驻留节点后的待选节点集合是否为空,如果为空,就表明用户设备此次接入失败,如果不为空,就返回继续执行从待选节点集合中选取参考信号接收功率和偏置值最大的驻留节点作为驻留节点的步骤。
可见,在图3所描述的方法中,用户设备在根据待选节点集合中各待选节点的状态信息计算出各待选节点的偏置值后,会从待选节点集合中选取参考信号接收功率和偏置值之和最大的待选节点作为驻留节点,同时会向该待选节点发送驻留请求,当驻留节点允许用户设备驻留时,用户设备驻留至该驻留节点,当驻留节点未返回驻留请求的响应通知,或返回拒绝驻留通知时,用户设备会从待选节点集合中删除该驻留节点,并重新从待选节点集合中选取驻留节点。通过实施本发明实施例,用户设备可以根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息设置每个待选节点的偏置值,在使用最大参考信号接收功率策略选择驻留节点时,能够通过偏置值调整每个待选节点被选作驻留节点的概率,从而能够平衡高功率节点与低功率节点以及低功率节点之间的负载,提高各节点的负载均衡度和通信网络***的资源利用率。
基于图1所示的网络架构,本发明实施例公开了一种用户设备。请参阅图4,图4是本发明实施例公开的一种用户设备的结构示意图。如图4所示,该用户设备400可以包括以下模块:
处理模块401,用于对每个待测节点进行信号测量,获取全部待测节点的参考信号接收功率RSRP。
上述处理模块401,还用于从全部待测节点中选取RSRP大于预设门限的待选节点集合。
上述处理模块401,还用于获取该待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息。
上述处理模块401,还用于根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息获得每个待选节点的偏置值Bias。
上述处理模块401,还用于从待选节点集合中选取RSRP与Bias之和最大的待选节点作为驻留节点。
作为一种可行的实施方式,该节点状态信息可以包括但不限于每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η、等效发射功率PTE、等效传输成本ME以及回传链路修正因子S,因此,处理模块401根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息获得该待选节点的偏置值Bias的具体方式可以为:
根据每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η、等效发射功率PTE、等效传输成本ME以及回传链路修正因子S计算该待选节点的偏置值Bias。计算公式如下:
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000016
其中,k为归一化系数,为一个固定值,用于统一等效传输成本ME和等效发射功率PTE的量纲。
作为另一种可行的实施方式,用户设备400还可以包括发送模块402以及接收模块403,其中:
发送模块402,用于向上述处理模块401选取的驻留节点发送驻留请求。
接收模块403,用于接收该驻留节点针对该驻留请求返回的允许驻留通知。
上述处理模块401,还用于判断在预设时间段内上述接收模块403是否接收到该允许驻留通知。
上述处理模块401,还用于在上述接收模块403在预设时间段内接收到该允许驻留通知时,驻留至该驻留节点。
作为又一种可行的实施方式,上述处理模块401,还用于在上述接收模块403在预设时间段内未接收到该允许驻留通知时,将该驻留节点从该待选节点集合中删除。
上述处理模块401,还用于判断该驻留节点删除后的待选节点集合是否为 空,若否,则重新从该待选节点集合中选取RSRP与Bias之和最大的待选节点作为驻留节点。
作为又一种可行的实施方式,处理模块获取该待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息的具体方式可以为:
针对待选节点集合中的每个待选节点,获取该待选节点的剩余资源比例η、发射功率、传输成本以及使用的回传链路类型,其中,回传链路类型包括有线回传链路以及无线回传链路。
当该待选节点使用有线回传链路时,将该发射功率作为该待选节点的等效发射功率PTE,并将该传输成本作为该待选节点的等效传输成本ME
而当该待选节点使用无线回传链路时,获取该无线回传链路的中继节点集合以及中继节点集合中每个中继节点的发射功率和传输成本,并将该中继节点集合中全部中继节点的发射功率与该待选节点的发射功率之和作为该待选节点的等效发射功率PTE,并将全部中继节点的传输成本与该待选节点的传输成本之和作为该待选节点的等效传输成本ME
作为又一种可行的实施方式,由于各节点的剩余资源比例η受各节点使用的回传链路类型的影响。因此,各节点计算其剩余资源比例η的方式与待选节点计算其剩余资源比例η的方式相同,具体可以为:
当该待选节点使用有线回传链路时,该待选节点的剩余资源比例η为
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000017
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000018
中的最小值;
当该待选节点使用无线回传链路时,该待选节点的剩余资源比例η为中继节点集合中的源中继节点的剩余资源比例η'。
其中,C表征的是该待选节点的有线回传链路的剩余可用容量,C0表征的是该待选节点所在的网络***中回传链路的总容量参考值,W表征的是该待选节点的可用载波剩余带宽,W0表征的是网络***的载波总带宽参考值。
针对某一节点来说,当该节点使用有线回传链路时,该节点会从有线回传链路的剩余可用容量与网络***的总容量参考值的比值,和该节点的可用载波剩余带宽与网络***的载波总带宽参考值的比值中,选取最小值作为该节点的 剩余资源比例η。对于使用有线回传链路的节点来说,回传链路剩余可用容量和节点的剩余可用带宽均会影响该节点承载新业务的能力,因此,取两者中的较小值较能真实的反映该节点承载新业务的能力。
而当该节点使用无线回传链路时,由于其承载新业务的能力不仅取决于其自身,还取决于无线回传链路中为该节点提供中继的各中继节点承载新业务的能力。因此,本方案在考虑该节点的剩余资源比例时,可以将无线回传链路中的源中继节点的剩余资源比例η'作为该节点的剩余资源比例η。
本发明实施例中,由节点的偏置值Bias的计算公式可以看出,剩余资源比例η在一定程度上可以反映该待选节点的负载。在S*η一定的情况下,待选节点的等效发射功率PTE或者等效传输成本ME越大,该待选节点的偏置值越小;而在等效发射功率PTE或者等效传输成本ME一定的情况下,待选节点的剩余资源比例η越大,该待选节点对应的偏置值也越大。
另外,对于低功率节点来说,假设各低功率节点的发射功率和传输成本均相同,使用有线回传链路的节点的等效发射功率和等效传输成本均比使用无线回传链路的节点的等效发射功率和等效传输成本要小,且使用有线回传链路的节点的回传链路修正因子也比使用无线回传链路的节点的回传链路修正因子要大。因此,在各低功率节点的发射功率、传输成本相同的基础上,使用有线回传链路的节点的偏置值Bias要大,因而在一定程度上被用户设备400选作驻留节点的概率要比使用无线回传链路的节点大。
本发明实施例中,处理模块401在计算待选节点集合中每个待选节点的偏置值时,引入了节点的发射功率(即传输功耗)、传输成本等因素,在本发明实施例的计算方法中,过大的发射功率或过高的成本开销均会降低该节点的偏置值,从而在客观上降低了用户设备400选择此类节点作为驻留节点的概率,同时,在一定程度上提升了通信网络***的能效以及成本效率性能。
进一步的,在计算每个待选节点的偏置值时,处理模块401还考虑了该待选节点使用的回传链路类型,通过等效发射功率PTE、等效传输成本ME、剩余资源比例η以及回传链路修正因子S这四个参数,从负载、传输质量、功耗及成本开销四个方面对回传可能造成的影响进行了表征。从上述偏置值的计算公式中可以看出,回传能力不足、回传质量欠佳、回传功耗较大以及回传成本开 销较高的待选节点的偏置值较小,从而被用户设备400选作驻留节点的概率就相对较低。
在计算剩余资源比例η时,联合考虑了回传资源及接入资源两方面的影响,有利于避免回传能力不足的待选节点承载过多业务。同时,在计算使用有线回传链路的待选节点的剩余资源比例η时,取该待选节点的回传链路中剩余可用容量与总容量参考值的比值,和可用载波剩余带宽与载波总带宽参考值的比值中的最小值,能够较为直观的反映该待选节点承载新业务的能力。
可见,在图4所描述的用户设备中,用户设备在对每个待测节点进行信号测量,获取全部待测节点的参考信号接收功率之后,会从全部待测节点中选取参考信号接收功率大于预设参考信号接收功率门限的待选节点集合,并获取待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息,根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息得到各自的偏置值,最后从该选节点集合中选取参考信号接收功率与偏置值之和最大的待选节点作为驻留节点。实施本发明实施例,用户设备可以根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息设置每个待选节点的偏置值,在使用最大参考信号接收功率策略选择驻留节点时,能够通过偏置值调整每个待选节点被选作驻留节点的概率,从而能够平衡高功率节点与低功率节点以及低功率节点之间的负载,提高各节点的负载均衡度和通信网络***的资源利用率。
基于图1所示的网络架构,本发明实施例公开了另一种用户设备。请参阅图5,图5是本发明实施例公开的另一种用户设备的结构示意图。如图5所示,该用户设备500可以包括:至少一个处理器501,如CPU,发送器502、接收器503和至少一个总线504,其中:
总线504可以为通信总线,用于实现处理器501、发送器502以及接收器503之间的通信连接,本发明实施例不做限定。
处理器501,用于对每个待测节点进行信号测量,获取全部待测节点的参考信号接收功率RSRP;
处理器501,还用于从全部待测节点中选取RSRP大于预设门限的待选节点集合,并获取待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息;

在一些可行的实施方式中,节点状态信息包括每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η、等效发射功率PTE、等效传输成本ME以及回传链路修正因子S;
处理器501根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息获得该待选节点的偏置值Bias的具体方式可以为:
根据每个待选节点的剩余资源比例η、等效发射功率PTE、等效传输成本ME以及回传链路修正因子S计算该待选节点的偏置值Bias。计算公式如下:

其中,k为归一化系数,为一个固定值,用于统一等效传输成本ME和等效发射功率PTE的量纲。
在一些可行的实施方式中,处理器501获取待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息的具体方式可以为:
针对待选节点集合中的每个待选节点,获取该待选节点的剩余资源比例η、发射功率、传输成本以及使用的回传链路类型,其中,回传链路类型包括有线回传链路以及无线回传链路;
当该待选节点使用有线回传链路时,将该发射功率作为该待选节点的等效发射功率PTE,并将该传输成本作为该待选节点的等效传输成本ME
或者当该待选节点使用无线回传链路时,获取该无线回传链路的中继节点集合以及中继节点集合中每个中继节点的发射功率和传输成本,并将该中继节点集合中全部中继节点的发射功率与该待选节点的发射功率之和作为该待选节点的等效发射功率PTE,并将全部中继节点的传输成本与该待选节点的传输成本之和作为该待选节点的等效传输成本ME
在一些可行的实施方式中,由于各节点的剩余资源比例η受各节点使用的回传链路类型的影响。因此,各节点计算其剩余资源比例η的方式与待选节点 计算其剩余资源比例η的方式相同,具体可以为:
当该待选节点使用有线回传链路时,该待选节点的剩余资源比例η为
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000020
Figure PCTCN2015095202-appb-000021
中的最小值;
当该待选节点使用无线回传链路时,该待选节点的剩余资源比例η为中继节点集合中的源中继节点的剩余资源比例η'。
其中,C表征的是该待选节点的有线回传链路的剩余可用容量,C0表征的是该待选节点所在的网络***中回传链路的总容量参考值,W表征的是该待选节点的可用载波剩余带宽,W0表征的是网络***的载波总带宽参考值。
针对某一节点来说,当该节点使用有线回传链路时,该节点会从有线回传链路的剩余可用容量与网络***的总容量参考值的比值,和该节点的可用载波剩余带宽与网络***的载波总带宽参考值的比值中,选取最小值作为该节点的剩余资源比例η。对于使用有线回传链路的节点来说,回传链路剩余可用容量和节点的剩余可用带宽均会影响该节点承载新业务的能力,因此,取两者中的较小值较能真实的反映该节点承载新业务的能力。
而当该节点使用无线回传链路时,由于其承载新业务的能力不仅取决于其自身,还取决于无线回传链路中为该节点提供中继的各中继节点承载新业务的能力。因此,本方案在考虑该节点的剩余资源比例时,可以将无线回传链路中的源中继节点的剩余资源比例η'作为该节点的剩余资源比例η。
在一些可行的实施方式中,
发送器502,用于在处理器501从待选节点集合中选取RSRP与Bias之和最大的待选节点作为驻留节点之后,向该驻留节点发送驻留请求。
接收器503,用于接收该驻留节点针对该驻留请求返回的允许驻留通知。
处理器501,还用于判断接收器503在预设时间段内是否接收到该允许驻留通知;
处理器501,还用于在接收器503在预设时间段内接收到该允许驻留通知时,驻留至该驻留节点。
在一些可行的实施方式中,处理器501还可以执行以下操作:
在接收器503在预设时间段内未接收到该允许驻留通知时,将该驻留节点从待选节点集合中删除;
判断该驻留节点删除后的待选节点集合是否为空,若否,则重新从待选节点集合中选取RSRP与Bias之和最大的待选节点作为驻留。
本发明实施例中,由节点的偏置值Bias的计算公式可以看出,剩余资源比例η在一定程度上可以反映该待选节点的负载。在S*η一定的情况下,待选节点的等效发射功率PTE或者等效传输成本ME越大,该待选节点的偏置值越小;而在等效发射功率PTE或者等效传输成本ME一定的情况下,待选节点的剩余资源比例η越大,该待选节点对应的偏置值也越大。
另外,对于低功率节点来说,假设各低功率节点的发射功率和传输成本均相同,使用有线回传链路的节点的等效发射功率和等效传输成本均比使用无线回传链路的节点的等效发射功率和等效传输成本要小,且使用有线回传链路的节点的回传链路修正因子也比使用无线回传链路的节点的回传链路修正因子要大。因此,在各低功率节点的发射功率、传输成本相同的基础上,使用有线回传链路的节点的偏置值Bias要大,因而在一定程度上被用户设备500选作驻留节点的概率要比使用无线回传链路的节点大。
本发明实施例中,处理器501在计算待选节点集合中每个待选节点的偏置值时,引入了节点的发射功率(即传输功耗)、传输成本等因素,在本发明实施例的计算方法中,过大的发射功率或过高的成本开销均会降低该节点的偏置值,从而在客观上降低了用户设备500选择此类节点作为驻留节点的概率,同时,在一定程度上提升了通信网络***的能效以及成本效率性能。
进一步的,在计算每个待选节点的偏置值时,处理器501还考虑了该待选节点使用的回传链路类型,通过等效发射功率PTE、等效传输成本ME、剩余资源比例η以及回传链路修正因子S这四个参数,从负载、传输质量、功耗及成本开销四个方面对回传可能造成的影响进行了表征。从上述偏置值的计算公式中可以看出,回传能力不足、回传质量欠佳、回传功耗较大以及回传成本开销较高的待选节点的偏置值较小,从而被用户设备500选作驻留节点的概率就相对较低。
在计算剩余资源比例η时,联合考虑了回传资源及接入资源两方面的影响, 有利于避免回传能力不足的待选节点承载过多业务。同时,在计算使用有线回传链路的待选节点的剩余资源比例η时,取该待选节点的回传链路中剩余可用容量与总容量参考值的比值,和可用载波剩余带宽与载波总带宽参考值的比值中的最小值,能够较为直观的反映该待选节点承载新业务的能力。
可见,在图5所描述的用户设备中,用户设备在对每个待测节点进行信号测量,获取全部待测节点的参考信号接收功率之后,会从全部待测节点中选取参考信号接收功率大于预设参考信号接收功率门限的待选节点集合,并获取待选节点集合中每个待选节点的节点状态信息,根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息得到各自的偏置值,最后从该选节点集合中选取参考信号接收功率与偏置值之和最大的待选节点作为驻留节点。实施本发明实施例,用户设备可以根据每个待选节点的节点状态信息设置每个待选节点的偏置值,在使用最大参考信号接收功率策略选择驻留节点时,能够通过偏置值调整每个待选节点被选作驻留节点的概率,从而能够平衡高功率节点与低功率节点以及低功率节点之间的负载,提高各节点的负载均衡度和通信网络***的资源利用率。
