Description

Background Art

[0002] At present, one of the typical ways for mobile communication systems to transmit information is to send text messages. Usually, the implementation of SMS services can include user-to-user methods, such as point-to-point text message transmission from user terminals (such as mobile phones used by users) to other user terminals, and can also include methods from SMS service platforms to user terminals, such as government health departments sending epidemic text messages, earthquake and flood emergency natural disaster text messages, news media push text messages, or water, electricity and gas payment text messages to user terminals. Among them, when the SMS service platform sends information to user terminals, it generally adopts a group messaging method, which is sent to different user terminals in batches within a few seconds, minutes or hours, such as Figure 1 As shown, sending text messages from different SMS service platforms 110 (such as SMS service platform 1, SMS service platform 2, ..., SMS service platform n) needs to pass through the SMS gateway 120, the SMS center 130, the mobile switching center of the mobile core network 140 and other equipment, and finally the base station 150 pages the user terminal 160 to send the text message to the user terminal 160.

[0003] Usually, when sending SMS, paging channels are used. If the paging channel is overloaded, paging messages will be lost and SMS sending will fail. Therefore, when sending SMS in bulk, the number of SMS messages needs to be controlled. The existing technology often uses the method of controlling the SMS flow at multiple nodes of SMS sending to ensure the normal sending of SMS messages, such as Figure 2 As shown, the number of SMS messages between the SMS gateway and the SMS center is limited to 1000 messages / second, the number of SMS messages between the SMS service platform 1 and the SMS gateway is limited to 500 messages / second, the number of SMS messages between the SMS service platform 2 and the SMS gateway is limited to 400 messages / second, and the number of SMS messages between the SMS platform n and the SMS gateway is limited to 300 messages / second, so as to realize the group sending control of SMS messages. However, the above SMS sending control method only controls the SMS traffic in a single way, and does not consider the specific problems in actual applications, such as the location distribution of user terminals, the demand for sending SMS messages by each SMS service platform, etc., resulting in that it cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the actual situation. When the sending user terminals are relatively concentrated, it will still cause the paging channel to be overloaded.

[0004] Therefore, how to reasonably and effectively control the sending of short messages is a problem to be solved urgently in the prior art.

[0040] Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, example embodiments can be implemented in a variety of forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that the disclosure will be more comprehensive and complete and to fully convey the concepts of the example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The described features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0041] Currently, communication operators are deepening their use of low-frequency 800M / 900M bands for LTE (Long Term Evolution) networks. CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) and GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) networks will use fewer frequencies, and the paging load of CDMA and GSM networks may increase. Therefore, it is necessary to perform dynamic SMS flow control based on the paging channel load of the wireless base station.

[0042] In addition, the LTE network paging load can measure the paging load of the location area. The protocol (such as TS36.331) stipulates that the maximum number of paging users in each paging opportunity is 16. A maximum of 4 paging opportunities can be configured in a radio frame, expressed as nB=4T (nB is used to characterize the paging density). Each paging opportunity contains a maximum of 16 UEs (user terminal equipment). Therefore, the maximum capacity of the paging channel is 100*4*16=6400 times / second. Usually, the network parameters can be configured as follows: the default paging cycle is 128, nB is 1T, the maximum number of paging records is 16, and the paging capacity is 1600 times / second. Taking into account the non-uniformity of paging distribution, when the average paging during busy hours exceeds 300pages / S (pages / second) (a total of 1 million times during busy hours), it is necessary to consider operations such as reducing paging.

[0043] In order to reasonably control the group sending of SMS and avoid excessive load on the paging channel, the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure first provides a method for controlling the sending of SMS. The application scenarios of the method of this embodiment can be: the government sends group SMS messages to users for the protection of potential safety hazards, or communication operators send group SMS messages to users for the handling of communication services, and other group SMS sending scenarios.

[0044] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the system architecture of the operating environment of this exemplary embodiment is shown. Figure 3 As shown, the system 300 may include a short message service platform 310, which may include, for example, short message service platform 1, short message service platform 2, ..., short message service platform n, etc. A flow control module 320 is used to obtain a receiving phone number in the short message service platform 310 and control the flow of group short messages. The flow control module 320 may be a separate server or integrated in other servers. Further, the group short messages are sent to multiple user terminals 360 through the short message gateway 330, the short message center 330, the mobile core network 340 and the base station 350, so as to realize group short messages.

[0045] It should be understood that Figure 1 The data of each device shown in the figure is only exemplary, and any number of SMS service platforms or user terminals etc. may be set according to actual needs.

[0046] Based on the above description, the method in this exemplary embodiment can be applied to Figure 3 On the flow module 320 shown.

[0047] The following is combined with Figure 4 This exemplary embodiment is further described as follows. Figure 4 As shown, the SMS sending control method may include the following steps S410 to S440:

[0048] Step S410, obtaining the receiving phone number of the group text message.

[0049] The SMS to be sent to a group refers to the SMS to be sent to the user, and the corresponding receiving phone number refers to the phone number for receiving the SMS to be sent to a group. In this exemplary embodiment, the receiving phone number of the SMS to be sent to a group in one or more SMS service platforms can be obtained, wherein the SMS service platform can refer to a service platform for sending SMS to be sent to a group. An enterprise or company can send SMS to be sent to one or more user terminals (such as mobile phone devices used by users) through the SMS service platform to notify or prompt users of specific messages. For example, the government health department can send SMS messages about epidemics, sudden natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods, news media, or water, electricity and gas payment to the mobile phones used by users through the SMS service platform.

[0050] Typically, an SMS service platform can send group text messages to multiple receiving phone numbers. The text messages to be sent in different SMS service platforms can be the same or different. For example, a government or community sends the same security risk protection text message to user terminals through different SMS service platforms; or a communication operator sends a communication service processing text message to user terminals through an SMS service platform, etc.

[0051] This exemplary embodiment can obtain the receiving telephone numbers of one or more SMS service platforms to be sent to a group. The number of receiving telephone numbers of each SMS service platform can be customized as needed, for example, the number of receiving telephone numbers obtained by each SMS service platform can be preset, 500 receiving telephone numbers can be obtained from SMS service platform 1, 400 receiving telephone numbers can be obtained from SMS service platform 2, 300 receiving telephone numbers can be obtained from SMS service platform 3, etc.; it can also be adjusted according to the total receiving telephone numbers and the actual needs of each SMS service platform for sending SMS. For example, if the total receiving telephone numbers need to be obtained is 1200, and SMS service platform 1 currently has no receiving telephone numbers to send, it can be determined to obtain 0 receiving telephone numbers in the SMS service platform, and further dynamically distribute the excess SMS sending capacity to other SMS service platforms. Specifically, the allocation method can be random allocation, for example, 500 receiving telephone numbers are evenly distributed to SMS service platform 2 and SMS service platform 3, or the weights of SMS service platform 2 and SMS service platform 3 can be calculated, and the number of receiving telephone numbers allocated to each SMS service platform can be determined by weighted calculation, for example, the number of receiving telephone numbers of SMS service platform 2 is adjusted from 400 to 0. Adjust the number of receiving phone numbers for SMS service platform 3 from 300 to In addition, other distribution methods that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art should also fall within the protection scope of this exemplary embodiment. Figure 5It shows that after adjusting the number of receiving telephone numbers in each SMS service platform by the above method, the specific process of extracting receiving telephone numbers from each SMS service platform may include: step S510, extracting 0 receiving telephone numbers from SMS service platform 1, extracting 0 receiving telephone numbers from SMS service platform 2 The receiving phone number is extracted from the SMS service platform 3 receiving telephone numbers to obtain all receiving telephone numbers in each SMS service platform; step S520, dividing the obtained receiving telephone numbers of each SMS service platform into multiple number sets.

[0052] Step S420, obtaining the location area where each receiving telephone number is located.

[0053] In practical applications, each receiving telephone number has a corresponding location area, which can be used to manage the location of the device corresponding to each receiving telephone number. In this exemplary embodiment, the location area can be a LA (Location Area Code) or a TA (Tracking Area). Each location area can have a corresponding location area identifier, such as a LAC (Location Area Code).

[0054] In an exemplary embodiment, the above step S420 may include the following steps:

[0055] Obtain communication information of the receiving telephone number from the signaling monitoring platform;

[0056] By parsing the communication information, the location area of ​​the receiving telephone number is determined.

[0057] At present, most communication operators have deployed core network signaling monitoring platforms, which can record the communication information of each user's base station cell and LAC location during each call, SMS sending, and periodic registration. Whether the user is making a voice call, roaming update, or SMS sending, the current location area information of the user terminal can be obtained in the data record. Taking roaming update as an example, as shown in Table 1 below, some communication information collected by some users during roaming update:

[0058] Table 1

[0059]

[0060] Based on this, after obtaining the communication information of each receiving telephone number from the signaling monitoring platform, the location area where the receiving telephone number is located can be determined by parsing the communication information. For example, after obtaining the above-mentioned roaming updated communication information, the location area corresponding to each user number (i.e., the receiving telephone number used to receive text messages in this exemplary embodiment) can be obtained by parsing the table.

[0061] Step S430, obtaining the remaining SMS sending capacity of each location area.

[0062] Considering that in actual applications, the communication performances of different location areas and different times in the same location area are different, in order to better control the sending of SMS messages and control the group sending of SMS messages to be sent, this exemplary embodiment can first determine the SMS sending capacity margin of each location area. The SMS sending capacity margin refers to the upper limit of the receiving telephone numbers that can be extracted in each location area. The SMS sending capacity margin can be determined based on the communication performance information such as the SMS sending capacity, paging strategy, paging signal configuration, and number of base stations of the location area corresponding to each number set.

[0063] Step S440: Control the sending of the SMS to be sent to the group based on the SMS sending capacity margin of each location area.

[0064] Finally, the group SMS can be sent to the receiving phone number according to the SMS sending capacity margin of each location area. Specifically, the receiving phone number can be sent to the SMS network and sent to the user terminal through the SMS gateway, SMS center, core network, and base station.

[0065] Based on the above description, in this exemplary embodiment, the receiving telephone number of the group text message to be sent is obtained; the location area where each receiving telephone number is located is obtained; the remaining capacity of text message sending in each location area is obtained; and the sending of the group text message to be sent is controlled based on the remaining capacity of text message sending in each location area. On the one hand, this exemplary embodiment proposes a new method for controlling the sending of text messages, which can control the group text messages according to the location area where the receiving telephone number is located and the remaining capacity of text message sending in the location area, so that the text messages can be sent to the receiving telephone numbers with a relatively balanced distribution in the location areas, avoiding the situation where the receiving telephone numbers in the same location area receive the group text messages in a concentrated manner, causing an excessive load on the paging channel, and improving the effectiveness of the text message sending control and the success rate of the text message sending; on the other hand, this exemplary embodiment can control the sending of the group text messages to be sent based on the remaining capacity of text message sending corresponding to the location area from the perspective of practical application, and further improve the ability and efficiency of text message sending.

[0066] In an exemplary embodiment, if Figure 6 As shown, after step S420, the above-mentioned SMS sending control method may further include the following steps:

[0067] Step S610, according to the location area where each receiving telephone number is located, classifying each receiving telephone number into a number set corresponding to the location area;

[0068] Correspondingly, step S440 may include the following steps:

[0069] Step S620, based on the SMS sending capacity margin of each location area, extract at least a part of receiving telephone numbers from the number set corresponding to each location area to generate a number stream;

[0070] Step S630, sending the SMS to be sent to a group through the number stream.

[0071] In this exemplary embodiment, the location area of ​​each receiving telephone number can be obtained from the signaling monitoring platform, and each receiving telephone number can be divided into a number set corresponding to the location area according to the location area where each receiving telephone number is located, that is, receiving telephone numbers with the same or similar location areas are clustered. Each number set can correspond to a location area identifier, for example, according to the receiving telephone numbers belonging to an LA, a corresponding number set is generated, and corresponds to an LAC.

[0072] In this exemplary embodiment, the number of numbers in each of the above-mentioned number sets can be customized as needed. Number sets with different location area identifiers can have the same number, for example, the capacity of all number sets is set to 10,000 receiving telephone numbers; number sets with different location area identifiers can also have different numbers, for example, number set 1 sets its number capacity to 9,000, number set 2 sets its number capacity to 11,000, etc. The present disclosure does not make specific limitations on this.

[0073] It should be noted that when each receiving telephone number is divided into a number set corresponding to the location area, if the number of receiving telephone numbers stored in the number set has reached the maximum capacity of the set, a prompt message can be fed back to the system that the current number set is full and no further receiving telephone numbers can be added. The receiving telephone numbers that have not been added can wait for the next addition process.

[0074] In actual applications, it may happen that the location area information of some receiving telephone numbers cannot be obtained due to data errors or the corresponding devices have not been turned on for a long time. Therefore, in an exemplary embodiment, the above step S610 may also include:

[0075] When the location area where the receiving telephone number is located cannot be determined, the receiving telephone number is classified into a number set corresponding to the unknown location area.

[0076] This exemplary embodiment can classify the receiving telephone numbers of the above-mentioned unavailable location areas into the number sets corresponding to the unknown location areas, that is, cluster the receiving telephone numbers of the unavailable location areas. Among them, there can be multiple number sets corresponding to the unknown location areas, which can be specifically determined according to the number of receiving telephone numbers. For example, when there are many receiving telephone numbers in the unavailable location areas, multiple number sets corresponding to the unknown location areas can be set. In addition, the capacity of the number set corresponding to each unknown location area can be the same or different, and this exemplary embodiment does not make specific limitations on this. It should be noted that, considering that the actual location areas of the receiving telephone numbers corresponding to the unknown location areas may be relatively scattered, the capacity of the number set corresponding to the unknown location area can be set to be greater than the capacity of the number set corresponding to the determined location area. For example, the capacity of the number set corresponding to the unknown location area can be set to 20,000, while the capacity of the number set corresponding to the determined location area is set to 10,000, etc. This disclosure does not make specific limitations on this.

[0077] In order to generate a reasonable and effective number stream and better control the sending of group text messages, this exemplary embodiment can obtain the text message sending capacity margin of each location area from the wireless base station, and based on the text message sending capacity margin of each location area, extract at least a part of the receiving telephone numbers from the number set corresponding to each location area to generate a number stream.

[0078] Specifically, when extracting at least a part of the receiving telephone numbers from the number sets corresponding to each location area, the same number of receiving telephone numbers can be extracted from multiple number sets, for example, one receiving telephone number can be extracted from number set 1, number set 2, number set 3, etc.; different numbers of receiving telephone numbers can also be extracted, for example, 10 receiving telephone numbers can be extracted from number set 1, 5 receiving telephone numbers can be extracted from number set 2, and so on. The specific number of extractions can be customized as needed, and can also be set according to the capacity of the number set, for example, setting a number set with a larger capacity to extract more receiving telephone numbers, etc.

[0079] Since the receiving telephone numbers in the generated number stream are extracted from different number sets, the distribution of location areas is relatively balanced, thus avoiding the problem of excessive concentration of receiving telephone numbers in the same location area causing excessive load on the paging channel when sending SMS.

[0080] Figure 7 A schematic diagram of a number stream generation process in this exemplary embodiment is shown, which may specifically include the following steps:

[0081] Step S710, extracting receiving telephone numbers from each SMS service platform 711, and classifying each receiving telephone number into a number set 712 corresponding to the location area according to the location area where each receiving telephone number is located;

[0082] Step S720 , extracting a receiving telephone number from the number set corresponding to each location area or the number set corresponding to the unknown location area, and generating a number stream 713 .

[0083] In an exemplary embodiment, if Figure 8 As shown, the above step S620 may include the following steps:

[0084] Step S810, based on the SMS sending capacity margin of each location area, performing at least one round of number extraction, in each round of number extraction, determining a number set that meets the extraction condition as a to-be-extracted number set, and extracting receiving telephone numbers from each to-be-extracted number set in turn;

[0085] Step S820, when the total number of extracted receiving telephone numbers reaches a preset threshold, a number stream is generated;

[0086] The number set that meets the extraction conditions includes:

[0087] The number of the extracted receiving telephone numbers in the number set is less than the SMS sending capacity margin of the number set and is less than the total number of the receiving telephone numbers in the number set.

[0088] In this exemplary embodiment, a counter can be set for each number set to record the number of receiving telephone numbers extracted from the number set. Each time a receiving telephone number is extracted from a number set, the number of received telephone numbers extracted can be updated accordingly. When the number of received telephone numbers extracted is greater than the SMS sending capacity margin, or the number of received telephone numbers extracted is equal to the total number of received telephone numbers in the number set, the receiving telephone numbers cannot be extracted from the number set.

[0089] In this exemplary embodiment, a number stream can be generated by extracting receiving telephone numbers from multiple number sets in one or more cycles. The process of one round of number extraction can refer to a process of extracting receiving telephone numbers for all number sets or part of number sets. For example, for 5 number sets, a receiving telephone number is extracted from each of the 5 number sets once, which is regarded as one round of number extraction; or for 5 number sets, after stopping or canceling the extraction of receiving telephone numbers from one of the number sets, a receiving telephone number is extracted from the other 4 number sets once, which can also be regarded as one round of number extraction. After one round of number sets is completed, the next round of number extraction process can be performed until the total number of extracted receiving telephone numbers reaches a preset threshold value, which is the maximum upper limit of the number of numbers that can be processed to send SMS at one time. Under this preset threshold value, normal group sending of SMS can be guaranteed. The specific threshold value can be determined according to the SMS processing capacity between the SMS gateway and the SMS center. For example, the preset threshold value can be set to 2000 messages / second.

[0090] When extracting receiving telephone numbers from number sets, the number of numbers extracted at one time from each number set can be set to be equal, for example, for 5 number sets, 5 numbers are extracted from number set 1, number set 2, number set 3, number set 4, and number set 5 respectively; the number of numbers extracted at one time from each number set can also be set to be unequal, for example, for the above 5 number sets, 3 receiving telephone numbers are extracted from number set 1, 5 receiving telephone numbers are extracted from number set 2, 2 receiving telephone numbers are extracted from number set 3, 5 receiving telephone numbers are extracted from number set 4, and 5 receiving telephone numbers are extracted from number set 5, and then the next round is carried out to extract 3 receiving telephone numbers from number set 1, and so on. Specifically, the number of receiving telephone numbers extracted at one time from each number set can be set as needed, for example, more receiving telephone numbers can be extracted from the number set corresponding to the unknown location area, etc.

[0091] It should be noted that when the number of receiving phone numbers extracted from a number set reaches the SMS sending capacity surplus, the extraction of receiving phone numbers from the number set will stop. In addition, if there is no receiving phone number in a number set, it means that there is no number that needs to send SMS in the current number set. When extracting numbers, you can skip this number set and continue to extract receiving phone numbers from the next set.

[0092] In an exemplary embodiment, the extracting receiving telephone numbers from each set of numbers to be extracted in sequence may include:

[0093] According to the order pre-determined for each number set, the same number of receiving telephone numbers are extracted from each number set to be extracted in sequence.

[0094] When performing at least one round of number extraction, the exemplary embodiment may set an extraction order for each number set, and further may extract the same number of receiving telephone numbers from each number set to be extracted in sequence according to the order of each number set. The specific order may be determined according to the generation time of the number set, or the capacity of the receiving telephone numbers contained in the number set, and other attributes, such as setting an earlier order for the number set with an earlier generation time, or setting an earlier order for the receiving telephone numbers contained in the number set with a smaller capacity, etc., and the present disclosure does not make specific limitations on this.

[0095] In addition, when extracting the same number of receiving telephone numbers from each to-be-extracted number set in sequence according to the order pre-determined for each number set, the receiving telephone numbers may be extracted in positive order, in reverse order, or in a combination of positive order and reverse order, etc. For example, for the sequence of to-be-extracted number set 1, to-be-extracted number set 2, to-be-extracted number set 3, to-be-extracted number set 4, and to-be-extracted number set 5, the same number of receiving telephone numbers may be extracted from the to-be-extracted number sets 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, respectively, and then the next round of extracting the receiving telephone numbers from the to-be-extracted number sets is performed. The process of extracting the same number of receiving telephone numbers from the number sets to be extracted 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 respectively; or the same number of receiving telephone numbers can be extracted from the number sets to be extracted 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 respectively, and then the next round of extracting the same number of receiving telephone numbers from the number sets to be extracted 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 is performed; or the same number of receiving telephone numbers can be extracted from the number sets to be extracted 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 respectively, and then the next round of extracting the same number of receiving telephone numbers from the number sets to be extracted 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 (or the number sets to be extracted 4, 3, 2, and 1) is performed, and so on.

[0096] In order to maximize the dispersion of the location area distribution of the receiving telephone numbers in the generated number stream and avoid connecting the receiving telephone numbers in the same location area, in an exemplary embodiment, in each round of number extraction, a receiving telephone number is extracted from each set of numbers to be extracted in turn.

[0097] For example, for the above five number sets, one receiving telephone number is extracted from number set 1, one receiving telephone number is extracted from number set 2, one receiving telephone number is extracted from number set 3, one receiving telephone number is extracted from number set 4, one receiving telephone number is extracted from number set 5, and then the next round is carried out, and one receiving telephone number is extracted from number set 1, etc. By extracting a receiving telephone number from each number set, a number stream with balanced distribution in the location area can be generated, which ensures the effectiveness of SMS group sending and avoids the situation where SMS sending fails in the concentrated location area of ​​the receiving telephone number or voice call failures or call difficulties of users in the concentrated location area.

[0098] Fig. 9 A schematic diagram of another process of generating a number stream in this exemplary embodiment is shown, which may specifically include the following steps:

[0099] Step S910, extracting receiving telephone numbers from each SMS service platform 911 respectively, and classifying each receiving telephone number into a number set 912 corresponding to the location area according to the location area where each receiving telephone number is located;

[0100] Step S920: extract a receiving telephone number from the number set corresponding to each location area or the number set corresponding to the unknown location area in sequence according to the order pre-determined for each number set, and generate a number stream 913.

[0101] In an exemplary embodiment, the above step S430 may include:

[0102] The SMS sending capacity margin of each location area is determined according to the current communication configuration information of the location area, the current average number of paging times per call in the location area, and the current average occupancy rate of the channel air interface in the location area.

[0103] That is, in this exemplary embodiment, the SMS sending capacity margin of the location area or the number set corresponding to the location area can be determined based on communication performance information such as the current communication configuration information of the location area, the current average number of paging times per call in the location area, and the current average channel air interface occupancy rate in the location area.

[0104] In this exemplary embodiment, the current average number of paging times per call in the location area can be determined based on the mobile core network. The current communication configuration information of the location area and the current average occupancy rate of the channel air interface in the location area can be determined based on the base station BTS (Base Transceiver Station). Fig.10 As shown, the specific process of determining the SMS sending capacity margin of the number set corresponding to each location area may include:

[0105] Step S1010, count the number of paging times of "voice + SMS" on the main service channel side of the mobile core network, such as the number of paging responses once, the number of paging responses twice, the number of paging responses three times, etc., and the number of paging responses without response, and then calculate the average number of paging times per call based on the number of responses and the number of responses without response. For example, as shown in the following Table 2, the number of paging responses once, the number of paging responses twice, the number of paging responses three times, etc., and the number of paging responses without response are recorded respectively:

[0106] Table 2

[0107]

[0108]

[0109] Based on the paging data in the above table, through the formula: the current average number of paging times per call = (number of responses to paging 1 * 1 + number of responses to paging 2 * 2 + number of responses to paging 3 * 3) / (number of responses to paging 1 + number of responses to paging 2 + number of responses to paging 3 + number of no responses to paging), it can be obtained that the current average number of paging times per call for the location area corresponding to the paging data in Table 2 above is 1.51.

[0110] It should be noted that the above Table 2 and the calculation process are only exemplary. In actual applications, it may also include the situation of paging 4 times or more. Accordingly, the calculation formula may also be adaptively adjusted according to the actual number of paging times. The present disclosure does not make any specific limitation on this.

[0111] Typically, a location area may include multiple carrier frequencies. By executing step S1020, the average channel air interface occupancy of the paging channels of all carrier frequencies in the location area is extracted and averaged, thereby obtaining the current average channel air interface occupancy of the location area. The average channel air interface occupancy of the paging channel of each carrier frequency can be determined by the occupancy load of the paging channel by voice, data, and text messages.

[0112] Step S1030, obtaining the current communication configuration information of the location area, wherein the communication configuration information may include the combined number of base station GPM (general paging messages) (in the current network, usually set to 3), the number of sectors in the current location area, the number of carrier layers where idle users reside (in the current network, usually set to 1), and the number of paging channels configured per carrier (in the current network, usually set to 1), etc. The above communication configuration information can be queried and obtained on the wireless base station side.

[0113] Further, by executing step S1040, according to the current communication performance information of each location area, the SMS sending capacity margin of the number set corresponding to each location area is determined by the following formula:

[0114]

[0115] Among them, S represents the margin of SMS sending capacity, in units of messages / second, X represents the current average occupancy rate of the channel air interface in the location area, Y represents the number of sectors in the current location area, Z represents the number of carrier layers where idle users reside, K represents the number of paging channels configured per carrier, N represents the current average number of paging times per call in the location area, and M represents the number of base station GMP mergers. It should be noted that the margin of SMS sending capacity of the above number set can be calculated when the paging channel occupancy rate reaches 70%, and it can also be specifically combined with data such as SMS ratio and location area paging probability.

[0116] Table 3 below schematically shows some communication performance information of number sets corresponding to different location area identifiers (such as LAC) and the calculated SMS sending capacity margin:

[0117] Table 3

[0118]

[0119] As the network working state changes, its busyness and idleness are different, and the average occupancy rate of the channel air interface of the paging signal of each location area changes dynamically. Therefore, this exemplary embodiment can periodically obtain the communication configuration information of the location area and dynamically update the SMS sending capacity margin of each number set. Among them, the specific period can be customized as needed, for example, it is set to update once every 1 hour, etc., and this disclosure does not make specific limitations on this.
