一种切换控制方法及设备
相关申请的交叉引用
本申请要求在2018年12月21日提交中国专利局、申请号为201811575205.7、申请名称为“一种切换控制方法及设备”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本公开涉及无线通信技术领域,特别涉及一种切换控制方法及设备。
背景技术
卫星互联网有着覆盖广、受自然灾害和物理攻击的影响小等优点。它与地面移动通信网(5G)网络可以深度融合,弥补地面移动网络的覆盖不足,与地面网络形成了优势互补、紧密融合、立体分层的融合网络***,实现信息在全球范围内的传输和交互。
卫星互联网分为同步卫星、中轨卫星和低轨卫星;低轨卫星距离的特点是距离地面较近,和地面终端间的通信时延适中,同时它还有移动速度快、路损大、星上功率受限等特点。
由于中低轨道卫星的移动速度快,即使终端相对地面不发生移动,在很短时间内终端也会失去和当前服务卫星的有效连接,终端需要在不同服务卫星之间频繁的切换。在蜂窝***中,连接态终端通过测量上报机制完成从当前服务基站到另外一个基站的切换;其中终端的测量上报机制是服务基站为终端选择合适目标基站的前提,终端根据网络侧的测量配置在满足测量触发条件下测量邻区基站的信号质量并以测量报告的形式上报给服务基站,服务基站综合考虑终端上报的测量报告后为终端选择一个或者几个合适的目标基站发起切换请求过程,也就是说,在蜂窝***中,切换流程需要终端侧进行辅助测量。
但是在高速移动的卫星通信网络场景下,由于一个地区被中低轨道卫星覆盖的有效时间相比一个终端在蜂窝网络背景下的一个小区中得到服务的平均时间短得多,若仍然沿用蜂窝网络中基于终端测量上报的切换机制会导致终端的切换测量过程过于频繁,大大增加终端的能耗,不利于终端节电。

下面将结合附图对本公开作进一步地详细描述。
图1示例性示出了适用于本公开实施例的一种***架构示意图,如图1所示,在未来的5G***架构中,终端101可以经接入网实体102与核心网进行通信,终端可以指UE、接入终端、用户单元、用户站、移动站、移动台、远方站、远程终端、移动设备、用户终端、终端、无线通信设备、用户代理或用户装置。接入终端可以是蜂窝电话、无绳电话、会话启动协议(Session Initiation Protocol,SIP)电话、无线本地环路(Wireless Local Loop,WLL)站、个人数字处理(Personal Digital Assistant,PDA)、具有无线通信功能的手持设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备,未来5G网络中的终端等。图1中为方便描述,只示例出1个终端,实际网络中,可能存在多个终端共存,在此不再赘述。

需要说明的是,上述***架构仅是对本公开实施例适用***架构的举例说明,本公开实施例适用的***架构相比图1所示的***架构还可以增加其它实体,或减少部分实体。
本公开实施例的应用于卫星通信网络场景下,在该场景下,为终端提供服务的接入网实体为卫星基站;并且卫星通信网络场景中包括多个卫星基站,多个卫星基站沿着固定的轨道高速移动。终端的移动速度相对于卫星基站来讲是很低的,终端是否发生切换的最主要因素不是终端自身的移动,而是卫星基站的移动。
并且,由于卫星基站的轨道固定,终端所在地区的卫星基站的覆盖行为是有规律可循的,终端接入的源卫星基站获取到卫星基站的星轨图信息后,结合终端上报的辅助信息,源卫星基站能够准确确定出在某一时刻经过终端所处地理位置所在区域的卫星基站,并且在源卫星基站的决策下完成切换流程,从而不需要终端频繁测量当前服务基站以及邻基站,从而减小终端能耗。
如图2所示,本公开实施例切换控制***包括:终端10、源卫星基站11和核心网设备12。
其中,源卫星基站为终端当前的服务基站。
终端10,用于向当前接入的源卫星基站上报辅助信息,以使所述源卫星基站根据所在地区的卫星基站星轨图信息,以及所述辅助信息确定至少一个候选卫星基站;根据所述源卫星基站返回的切换命令确定需要切换到的目标卫星基站,并从所述源卫星基站切换到所述目标卫星基站。

核心网设备12,用于接收源卫星基站发送的请求消息;将所述源卫星基 站所在地区的卫星基站星轨图信息发送给所述源卫星基站。
由于本公开实施例提供的切换控制***中终端向源卫星基站上报辅助信息,源卫星基站根据所在地区的卫星基站星轨图信息,以及终端上报的辅助信息能够确定至少一个候选卫星基站;且候选卫星基站为终端确定的在下次切换时可能接入的卫星基站,在确定出至少一个候选卫星基站之后,源卫星基站向终端发送切换命令,终端根据接收到的切换命令确定需要切换到的目标卫星基站,并从源卫星基站切换到目标卫星基站。本公开实施例提供了一种源卫星基站决策触发的切换流程,不需要终端频繁的对当前服务基站以及邻基站进行测量,从而简化了切换流程并降低了终端能耗。

可选的,终端根据下列方式向源卫星基站上报辅助信息:
方式1、终端根据预设的第一周期向当前接入的源卫星基站上报辅助信息;
例如,预设的第一周期为T1,则终端以T1为周期,周期性向源卫星基站上报辅助信息。
方式2、终端根据所述辅助信息对所述预设的第一周期进行调整,根据调整后的第二周期向当前接入的源卫星基站上报辅助信息;
例如,预设的第一周期为T1,终端根据辅助信息对第一周期T1进行调整(具体为缩放处理),比如将第一周期T1调整为第二周期T2,则终端以T2为周期,周期性向源卫星基站上报辅助信息。

其中,终端的运动状态包括单位时间内位移变化量不大于第一预设值的第一运动状态,以及单位时间内位移变化量大于所述第一预设值的第二运动状态。
具体的,第一运动状态是指终端的移动速度低于第二预设值;
或者,第一运动状态是指终端的移动速度大小高于第二预设值,但是由于终端自身做环形运动等条件导致终端在一段时间内移动的位移量不大于第三预设值时;在满足该条件时终端会被判定为第一运动状态;

需要说明的是,终端根据测量配置信息进行邻卫星基站测量,在确定满足上报条件之后,向源卫星基站上报测量信息;其中,该上报条件可以为现有技术中终端向接入基站上报测量信息的条件。
在终端的运动状态为第一运动状态时,终端不进行任何邻卫星基站的测量过程;需要说明的是,在终端确定从源卫星基站切换到目标卫星基站之前,终端可以对目标卫星基站进行测量,用以确认目标卫星基站的信号质量是否满足条件;
在终端的运动状态为第二运动状态时,终端解除对邻卫星基站测量的限制,在满足测量条件后,立即开启同频或者邻频测量过程。
终端在进行测量之前或者测量过程中,如果终端接收到源卫星基站发送的重配置消息中包含新的测量配置信息,则终端使用接收到的最新的测量配置信息完成测量过程,否则,终端使用自身已保存的最新的测量配置信息完成测量过程,测量完成后根据最新测量配置要求向源卫星基站上报测量信息。
本公开实施例中,在终端的运动状态不同时,源卫星基站确定候选卫星基站的方式也不同,下面分情况进行说明:

步骤3、根据本地策略,将返回切换确认消息的一个或多个候选卫星基站作为备选目标卫星基站;
实施中,源卫星基站可以基于多种本地策略确定备选目标卫星基站。例如根据卫星基站在本地区有效服务时长,服务时长较大的卫星基站优先考虑作为备选目标卫星基站;或者根据终端发起切换之前需要的等待时长大小,切换等待时长越小的卫星基站优先考虑作为备选目标卫星基站;或者综合考虑卫星基站的服务时长和终端切换等待时长,选择切换等待时长适中的卫星基站作为备选目标卫星基站,这样既保证了服务的连续性,也不会出现过早切换或过迟切换的问题。
