Method for reporting base station LECENSE capability

Abstract

Using RESOURCE STATUS INDICATION signaling message or AUDIT RESPONSE signaling message carries LICENSE capability indication information (CII) and reports CII to base station controller. Concretely, it is realized by using the said signaling messages to carry resource group IE, and setting up Local Cell Group ID as systemic uncommon specific value in signaling message or adding field to carry CII. The invention makes software capability limited base station possible to report actual capability and rules of resource expenditure precisely. Thus, base station controller can master resource capability and condition of use in base station accurately in order to use techniques that need to know condition of resource use of base station in advance such as admittance control etc.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of wireless communication, in particular to a method for reporting the LICENSE capability of a base station. Background technique [0002] A base station may have multiple devices that can independently process calls. Each independent device has a capability, that is, how many 12.2K voice calls it can support. For example, an independent device can handle up to 128 12.2K voice calls at the same time, then Let us say that the capability of the device is 128CE (ChannelElement, resource capability points consumed by 12.2K voice services). Since this device is the smallest unit of call processing and cannot be divided, operators may consider the actual user capacity at the initial stage of network construction and do not need the entire device capability. For example, only 32 CEs are enough to meet the current market demand. A concept of base station soft capability. This capability can be purchased independently of the ...

Problems solved by technology

In the prior art, for sharing CE capabilities between different local cells, both messages support reporting by local cell group, and a local cell can only be in one local cell group, and cannot report the LICENSE capability of a base station

That is, it cannot reflect the actual hardware resource capability and license capability of a base station at the same time. In this case, if the license capability of a base station is 64CE, the base station has two local cell groups, where local cell group 0 has 128CE, and local cell group 1 If there are 32CEs, if the base station only reports the LICENSE capability, tell the base station controller that the base station can handle up to 64 CEs at the same time. For users in the local cell group 0, there is no problem with the support of the license capability or the actual hardware capability, but for the local cell Users in group 1 can only support up to 32CE at the same time

In this way, the capacity resource status reported by the base station is inaccurate, which may cause the base station controller to fail to implement the scheduling algorithm based on processing capabilities among different base stations, such as admission control, etc., resulting in an increased probability of service establishment failure and affecting user experience.
