[0043] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention. The step numbers in the following embodiments are provided for ease of explanation only and do not limit the order of the steps. The order of execution of the steps in the embodiments can be adaptively adjusted according to the understanding of those skilled in the art.

[0044] Radio Resource Management (RRM) aims to provide high-quality service quality for terminals (UEs) under limited bandwidth conditions. Based on UE measurements (and reports), RRM allows the network to flexibly allocate and dynamically adjust radio (transmission) resources for UEs, maximizing radio spectrum utilization, preventing network congestion, and minimizing signaling overhead.

[0045] UE L3 handover primarily involves communication between network nodes and user equipment (UE) mobility management. This process ensures communication continuity and quality of service when the UE switches between different network cells. In 5G (NR) systems, RSRP measurement is performed by the UE (user equipment) and the results are used to perform cell selection, cell reselection, power control, mobility procedures, and beam management procedures. In 5G, RSRP measurements for UEs are generated and reported at the L1 and L3 layers.

[0046] Currently, the method for predicting network-triggered L3 handovers is an AI-based cell handover method. This method trains a model for each cell to predict its future RSRP, then deploys multiple trained models on the network side. While this AI-based cell handover prediction method is conceptually simple, it suffers from high deployment and management overhead for AI models. It also makes it difficult to reuse previously trained models for terminals in different locations, creating significant obstacles in practical application.

[0047] To address this issue, the present invention proposes an AI-assisted L3 handover method based on RSRP clustering time prediction. Using cluster-level RSRP measurement information, an AI-based approach is used to predict the future RSRP of multiple adjacent cells. This prediction model demonstrates excellent generalization capabilities and fully considers data characteristics in RSRP filtering. Combining the advantages of traditional filtering methods, it is robust against occasional pulsed interference, eliminating sampling deviations caused by such interference and providing reasonable guidance for L3 handover.

[0048] The cell switching method and system based on cluster RSRP measurement according to the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. First, the cell switching method based on cluster RSRP measurement according to the embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 In an embodiment of the present invention, a cell switching method based on cluster RSRP measurement is provided. The cell switching method based on cluster RSRP measurement in the embodiment of the present invention can be applied to a terminal, a server, or software running in a terminal or a server. The terminal can be a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, etc., but is not limited thereto. The server can be an independent physical server, or a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, CDN, and big data and artificial intelligence platforms. The cell switching method based on cluster RSRP measurement in the embodiment of the present invention mainly includes the following steps:

[0050] S100: Obtain historical measurement values; the historical measurement values ​​are measurement information of all cells within a first preset time period in the past, and the measurement information includes the first L1-RSRP of all beams;

[0051] S200: Inputting the historical measurement value into a prediction model to obtain a predicted value; the predicted value is the second L1-RSRP of all cells within a second preset time period in the future;

[0052] S300: Filter the predicted value to obtain L3-RSRP; perform cell switching according to the L3-RSRP.

[0053] In some possible implementations, the prediction model in the present application performs prediction based on spatial correlation and temporal correlation between L1-RSRP measurements. The first L1-RSRP is historical data, and the second L1-RSRP is predicted future data.

[0054] RSRP is obtained by measuring the received power of the reference signal. RSRP is then filtered to obtain L1-RSRP (various filtering methods are available, and the present invention does not impose specific limitations). L1-RSRP is then filtered again to obtain L3-RSRP. L1-RSRP is primarily filtered at the physical layer (Layer 1, L1 for short). It is useful for processes that require minimal latency, such as beam management, where the UE needs to quickly switch between beams. L3-RSRP is filtered at the radio resource control layer (RRC, Layer 3, L3 for short). It is useful for radio resource management decisions that require long-term monitoring of channel conditions, such as triggering handover procedures to reduce the risk of ping-pong handovers between serving cells. L3-RSRP results can be reported at either the beam or cell level and to the gNB in ​​a measurement report message.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 2 The wireless communication scenario shown in Figure 1 has a user equipment (UE) and 7 base stations (BS). The orange dotted line represents the movement trajectory of the UE. The prediction mechanism of cell switching based on artificial intelligence is as follows: Figure 3 As shown. Cell-level measurement information from the past h measurements is used to predict the upcoming g L1-RSRP values. These measurements will be used to perform cell switching. Only one AI model needs to be trained to complete the L1-RSRP prediction for all cells. This method utilizes the spatial correlation between L1-RSRP measurements of different cells and the temporal correlation between L1-RSRP measurements of the same cell at different times, which significantly reduces the cost of model training and deployment and ensures prediction accuracy. Spatial correlation and temporal correlation mean that when a UE is in motion, its position changes over time, and the received signal strength also changes. Spatial correlation is the relationship between RSRP at different locations. Simply put, the signal is weaker when it is far away from the base station and stronger when it is close to the base station. Temporal correlation is the change in signal strength over time when the UE is not moving.

[0056] It is understood that the prediction model in this application uses the first L1-RSRP of all beams of all cells in the past h measurements to predict the second L1-RSRP of all beams of all cells in the upcoming g measurements. The AI ​​model output (second L1-RSRP) is then filtered to derive the L3-RSRP for performing cell handover. The L1-RSRP output by the AI ​​model can be applied to both beam and mobility management.

[0057] Optionally, in one embodiment of the present invention, obtaining historical measurement values ​​includes:

[0058] Get RSRP measurement value;

[0059] The RSRP measurement value is filtered by a clipping average filtering method to obtain a first L1-RSRP.

[0060] Optionally, in one embodiment of the present invention, filtering the RSRP measurement value by a clipping average filtering method to obtain a first L1-RSRP includes:

[0061] If the difference between the RSRP measurement values ​​collected twice in succession is greater than a preset deviation, discard the RSRP measurement value collected second time in the two consecutive collections;

[0062] Put all the collected RSRP measurement values ​​into an array, and replace the oldest RSRP measurement value with the latest collected RSRP measurement value;

[0063] Performing average filtering on the values ​​in the array to obtain a first L1-RSRP.

[0064] RSRP (Reference Signal Receiving Power) is obtained by measuring the received power of a reference signal. To eliminate the effects of rapid fading and shadow fading, the RSRP measurements are filtered to obtain L1-RSRP and L3-RSRP for model training.

[0066] Table 1

[0067] The RSRP measurement is filtered using the clipping average filtering method to obtain L1-RSRP. The clipping average filtering method is equivalent to the "clipping filter method" and "recursive average filtering method". First, each new data sampled is clipped and then sent to the queue for recursive average filtering. The details are as follows:

[0068] Limiting: Refer to the measurement values ​​shown in Table 1. For two consecutive data collections, if the difference between the first and second data collections is greater than the maximum deviation value, the second data collection is considered incorrect and not recorded. The first data collection is assumed to be the second data collection. If the difference is less than the maximum deviation value, the second data collection is considered valid and saved.

[0069] Recursive averaging: All collected data are stored in an array. Each time a new data is sampled, the latest data replaces the oldest data. Then, the arithmetic average operation is performed on the data in the array to obtain a new filtering result. The final processed data is shown in Table 2 below:

[0070]

[0071]

[0072] Table 2

[0073] Optionally, in one embodiment of the present invention, the prediction model is trained by the following steps:

[0074] Acquire measurement samples; the measurement samples include historical measurement samples and actual results of measurement predictions;

[0075] Inputting the measurement samples into a prediction model to obtain a prediction result;

[0076] According to the actual results and the predicted results, a loss function is used to calculate the loss value, and the parameters of the prediction model are updated to obtain a trained prediction model.

[0077] Optionally, in one embodiment of the present invention, inputting the measurement samples into a prediction model to obtain a prediction result includes:

[0078] Inputting the measurement sample into the LSTM layer to obtain a first feature;

[0079] Input the first feature into a fully connected layer to obtain a second feature; the fully connected layer includes two layers of FC, and the second layer of FC outputs the feature through a ReLU activation function;

[0080] The second feature is input into the output layer to obtain a prediction result; the output layer outputs the feature through the Elu activation function.

[0081] Optionally, in one embodiment of the present invention, the calculating a loss value using a loss function based on the actual result and the predicted result, updating the parameters of the prediction model, and obtaining a trained prediction model includes:

[0082] According to the actual results and the predicted results, the loss value is calculated using MSE; the parameters of the prediction model are updated using the Adam optimization algorithm to obtain a trained prediction model.

[0083] The prediction model in the embodiments of the present application can be any artificial intelligence model. For example, it can be an artificial intelligence model based on an LSTM network combined with a fully connected layer, which can predict future L1-RSRP based on historical L1-RSRP. Figure 4 The overall framework structure of the LSTM-FC model is given, which consists of three parts:

[0084] The first part consists of two LSTM layers and Dropout. Its input needs to be converted into an h*M*N matrix, where h is the number of data items, M is the number of features, and N is the number of time steps, that is, how long the previous data is used as input for prediction. The two LSTM layers contain 512 and 64 nodes, respectively.

[0085] The second part includes two fully connected layers and Dropout. The number of nodes in the two fully connected layers is 128 and 64 respectively. A layer of Dropout is set after the two layers to prevent overfitting. The Dropout rate is set to 0.25, and the ReLU activation function is used in the second fully connected layer.

[0086] The third part is the output layer. Because the final output of the regression task is a single value, the final layer is a fully connected layer with only one node, and this fully connected layer uses Elu as the activation function. The model uses MSE as the loss function and the Adam optimization algorithm as the optimizer for weight updates.

[0087] The model outputs the L1-RSRP of all beams in all cells from the g measurements (i.e., the second L1-RSRP). The average L1-RSRP of each cell is then selected as the L3-RSRP. Network operators set an appropriate handover threshold based on the specific network environment and service requirements. Handover occurs when the L3-RSRP meets the threshold.

[0088] Optionally, in one embodiment of the present invention, filtering the predicted value to obtain L3-RSRP; and performing cell switching according to the L3-RSRP includes:

[0089] Perform average filtering on the second L1-RSRP of each cell to obtain L3-RSRP;

[0090] If the L3-RSRP of the current cell is less than the switching threshold, a cell switching is performed.

[0091] The embodiment of the present application uses training and prediction of existing RSRP values ​​to predict RSRP changes in advance and make handover deployments in advance, which is more scientific and effective than switching based on real-time measurement data. The embodiment of the present application uses a limited average filtering method to filter RSRP measurement values ​​to obtain L1-RSRP. It fully considers data characteristics and combines the advantages of traditional filtering methods to resist occasional pulse interference and eliminate sampling value deviations caused by pulse interference. The embodiment of the present application uses an LSTM plus FC model to train this type of time series data, which can well capture the long-term dependencies in time series data and improve prediction accuracy. In the embodiment of the present application, the input and output of the prediction model are both L1-RSRP values. L3-RSRP is obtained by filtering the prediction results again, rather than directly filtering twice before inputting the model to obtain L3-RSRP and then inputting the model to directly obtain L3-RSRP. Continuous filtering twice may cause the data to be overly smoothed and the prediction error to be large. The embodiment of the present application measures the moving UE, and the trained model has good generalization ability and can adapt to situations where the UE is at different distances from the base station.

[0092] This paper proposes an AI-based measurement prediction method for L3 mobility based on cell measurement information. The method includes AI model input, output, data collection and processing, and training methods. This method enables accurate prediction of L3-RSRP, significantly reducing model training and deployment costs and improving the model's generalization capabilities.

[0093] In summary, the above method obtains historical measurement values; the historical measurement values ​​are measurement information of all cells within the past first preset time period, and the measurement information includes the first L1-RSRP of all beams; the historical measurement values ​​are input into the prediction model to obtain prediction values; the prediction values ​​are the second L1-RSRP of all cells within the future second preset time period; the prediction values ​​are filtered to obtain L3-RSRP; and cell switching is performed according to the L3-RSRP. The embodiment of the present application establishes a prediction model through the measurement information of all cells within the first preset time period, so that the model is established through the spatial correlation and temporal correlation of the data, which alleviates the training and deployment costs of establishing a large number of models, is conducive to improving the prediction accuracy of the model, and thus improves the cell switching effect.

[0094] Secondly, refer to the attached Figure 5 A cell handover system based on cluster RSRP measurement proposed according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.
