Carrier aggregation function activation method and device

Abstract

Embodiments of the invention provide a carrier aggregation function activation method and device. The method can be used for activating a carrier aggregation function in a heterogeneous network and comprises: acquiring a first user access number of a macro base station and a second user access number of a micro base station; determining whether the first user access number is over a first threshold and the second user access number is over a second threshold; if the first user access number is not over the first threshold and the second user access number is not over the second threshold, determining a concentration ratio of users in a coverage range of the micro base station, and determining whether the concentration ratio is over the second threshold; and if the concentration ratio is over the second threshold, activating the carrier aggregation function. The carrier aggregation function activation method and device provided by the embodiments of the invention can self-adaptively select whether to activate the carrier aggregation function according to network situations.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of communication technologies, and in particular, to a method and device for activating a carrier aggregation function. Background technique [0002] The rapid development of the mobile Internet industry, on the one hand, as the driving force for the development of mobile network services, has accelerated the construction of mobile networks; It poses various challenges to mobile network construction and network operation. At the same time, the problem of uneven service distribution that already existed in the era of 2G and 3G networks is even more prominent. Due to the uneven distribution of population density, users of different age groups and different regions have greatly different needs for mobile services. Not only mobile services in different communities There are "cold" and "hot" service bearer requirements, and the service volume requirements of different geographical locations in the sa...

Problems solved by technology

However, in the heterogeneous network scenario, unlike the macro network scenario, the coverage of the macro and micro base stations is different. Usually, the coverage of the macro base station is much larger than that of the micro base station. When the base station is loaded, turning on or off the carrier aggregation function uniformly may not be able to obtain the maximum resource utilization
