Method, device and system for configuring a picocell

Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a configuration method, device and system for picocells, and they relate to mobile communication technology field. The method comprises that a first service request message is sent to a first target macro base station, wherein the first target macro base station has the function of beam forming virtual multilayer network structures, the first service request message is used to request the first target macro base station for beam coverage , and the identification (ID) information of the macro base station sending the service request message and the location information of the appointed region needing beam coverage are included in the first service request message; after the first target macro base station providing beam coverage for the appointed region, a user in the appointed region can communicate using the beam coverage. It is mainly used in configuration of picocells.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mobile communication, in particular to a configuration method, device and system of a pico cell. Background technique [0002] The mobile communication network can adopt a cellular structure, that is, multiple base stations are set up at different locations, each base station forms a cell, and each base station is responsible for the communication of mobile users within its cell area. In order to ensure that mobile users can obtain uninterrupted and continuous communication, adjacent cells are provided with a certain overlapping area, so that mobile users can switch from one cell to another during the communication process. [0003] In this traditional single-layer cell system, in order to increase the capacity of the entire system, the capacity of each cell can be increased. However, in a large area, not all places require high capacity, and in most cases only local hot spots require high capaci...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Picocells are usually not preset in temporary hotspots, and it takes time and manpower to set up picocells specifically for temporary hotspots, resulting in unnecessary waste of resources

The picocell of the hotspot cell may also fail. If the picocell of the hotspot cell fails, the communication in the hotspot cell will be interrupted, which will bring inconvenience to mobile users.
