[0038] In the above operating environment, Figure 2 is a flow chart of an optional cell management method according to an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the method at least includes steps S202-S206, wherein:

[0039] Step S202: Obtain a set of load information of multiple first logical cells within a target time period.

[0040] In the technical solution provided in step S202, the first logical cell (also called "merged cell") includes multiple physical cells, and each first logical cell has only one air interface resource, and users in the first logical cell do not perceive handover in the cell. In addition, the load information set of each first logical cell in the target time period includes the load information of the first logical cell at each time in the target time period.

[0041] It should be noted that the cell configuration information of each first logical cell can be backed up in advance on the base station and network management system side, and the cell configuration information includes: the physical cell identifier PCI of each cell, cell networking configuration parameters, various feature function parameters and optimization parameters, etc.

[0042] Step S204: for each first logical cell, determine the load score and load score change trend of the current first logical cell at a corresponding moment according to the load information of the current first logical cell at each moment within the target time period.

[0043] In the technical solution provided in step S204, the current first logical cell can be any one of the traversed multiple first logical cells. The load score can evaluate the comprehensive load information of the current first logical cell at the corresponding time, and the load score change trend can reflect the instantaneous change rate of the load score of the current first logical cell at the corresponding time, that is, the tangent slope at this time point, so as to understand the change trend of the load score of the current first logical cell at this time, such as rising, falling or keeping constant.

[0044] Step S206, determining the cell type of the current first logical cell at the corresponding moment according to the relationship between the load score of the current first logical cell at each moment and the preset score threshold and the load score change trend at each moment, and performing corresponding management operations on the current first logical cell according to the cell type.

[0045] In the technical solution provided in step S206, the cell type of the current first logical cell at the corresponding moment is comprehensively determined according to the size relationship between the load score determined above and the preset score threshold, and the load score change trend, such as a cell to be split or a cell to be merged, and then the corresponding management operation is performed on the current first logical cell according to the cell type, such as splitting the cell to be split or merging the cell to be merged. Among them, the above-mentioned score threshold can be set according to the actual application scenario, and this application does not make specific restrictions on this.

[0046] The above method of this embodiment is further introduced below.

[0047] As an optional implementation, in the technical solution provided in the above step S202, obtaining the load information of the first logical cell at the target time may include but is not limited to: the number of users in the cell, the number of physical resource blocks (PRBs) allocated to the physical uplink control channel, the number of physical resource blocks allocated to the physical downlink control channel, etc.

[0048] As an optional implementation, in the technical solution provided in the above step S204, the method may include:

[0049] Step 1: Determine the load score of the current first logical cell at each moment in the target time period according to the load information and a preset load evaluation matrix, wherein the load evaluation matrix is ​​a diagonal matrix, and the elements on the diagonal line of the load evaluation matrix are the product of the ratio of the load information to the preset load threshold and the preset weight;

[0050] Step 2: Determine the load score change trend of the current first logic cell at each moment according to the load score of the current first logic cell at each moment within the target time period.

[0051] For example, if the load information is the number of users in the cell, the number of physical resource blocks allocated to the physical uplink control channel, and the number of physical resource blocks allocated to the physical downlink control channel, the corresponding load evaluation matrix can be written as:

[0052]

[0053] Among them, the above C(t) represents the load score at time t, a, b, and c represent the number of users in the collected cell, the number of physical resource blocks allocated to the physical uplink control channel, and the number of physical resource blocks allocated to the physical downlink control channel, respectively, ξ(x) represents the value function, which is the ratio of the collected value to the predetermined threshold value (i.e., the preset load threshold), therefore, if the collected value is greater than the threshold value, ξ(x) is greater than 1, otherwise ξ(x) is less than 1), α, β, and γ represent the weight coefficients corresponding to each collected value, respectively.

[0054] Therefore, by calculating the above load evaluation matrix, the load score C(t) of the first logical cell at time t can be obtained; further, by summarizing the load scores of the first logical cell at multiple times t, a load score change graph can be obtained, such as Figure 3 As shown, according to Figure 3 The load score variation graph shown determines the tangent slope of the first logic cell at each time t, so as to understand the variation trend of the load score of the first logic cell at each time t, such as increasing, decreasing or remaining constant.

[0055] As an optional implementation, in the technical solution provided in the above step S206, the method may include:

[0056] The first case: the load score at any time is greater than the score threshold and the load score change trend is increasing.

[0057] In the first case above, when the load score of the current first logical cell at time t is greater than the score threshold (such as C(t)>1) and the load score change trend increases (ie, dC(t)>1), it means that the load score of the current first logical cell will continue to increase. Therefore, in order to meet the large capacity demand of the current first logical cell and ensure the network quality under multi-user and multi-load conditions, the cell type of the current first logical cell at the corresponding time is marked as a cell to be split (ie, the cell is "allowed to split"), and a split operation is performed on the current first logical cell.

[0058] Optionally, the current first logical cell may be split according to the following rules: split the current first logical cell into multiple first logical cells, determine the cell configuration information of each second logical cell according to the cell configuration information of the current first logical cell, and store the cell configuration information of each second logical cell.

[0059] Typically, the current first logical cell can be split into multiple merged cells (i.e., first logical cells). It should be noted that the current first logical cell is generally split into two merged cells to avoid excessive splitting due to inaccurate load assessment. At the same time, the cell configuration information of each second logical cell is determined according to the cell configuration information of the current first logical cell, and the cell configuration information of the current first logical cell pre-stored on the network management side and the base station side is replaced with the cell configuration information of multiple second logical cells.

[0060] For example, the current first logical cell is composed of 8 physical transceiver points (TRPs), which can be split into 2 first logical cells, and each first logical cell is composed of 4 TRPs.

[0061] The second case: the load score at any time is less than the score threshold, or the load score is greater than the score threshold but the load score change trend is decreasing.

[0062] In the second case above, one case is that the load score of the current first logical cell at time t is low (such as C(t)<1). At this time, in order to reduce the inter-cell interference caused by the increase in the number of user handovers between cells, the cell type of the current first logical cell at the corresponding time is marked as a cell to be merged (that is, the cell "allows merging"), and a merging operation is performed on the current first logical cell. Another case is that the load score of the current first logical cell at time t is high (such as C(t)>1), but its load score trend is generally decreasing (that is, dC(t)<1), indicating that the load score will gradually decrease in the future. At this time, in order to reduce the inter-cell interference caused by the increase in the number of user handovers between cells, the cell type of the current first logical cell at the corresponding time is marked as a cell to be merged (that is, the cell "allows merging"), and a merging operation is performed on the current first logical cell.

[0063] Optionally, a merging operation may be performed on the current first logical cell according to the following rules: obtaining the cell type of at least one adjacent first logical cell of the current first logical cell, wherein the cell type of the adjacent first logical cell may be determined according to the technical solution provided in the above step S204; when the cell type of any adjacent first logical cell is a cell to be merged, merging the current first logical cell and the adjacent first logical cell, determining the cell configuration information of the merged third logical cell based on the cell configuration information of the current first logical cell and the cell configuration information of the adjacent first logical cell, and storing the cell configuration information of the third logical cell.

[0064] Typically, the current first logical cell can be merged with an adjacent first logical cell whose cell type is a cell to be merged, so as to avoid excessive merging caused by inaccurate load evaluation. At the same time, the cell configuration information of the merged third logical cell is determined according to the cell configuration information of the current first logical cell and the cell configuration information of the adjacent first logical cell whose cell type is a cell to be merged, and the cell configuration information of the current first logical cell pre-stored on the network management side and the base station side is replaced with the cell configuration information of the third logical cell.

[0065] Furthermore, when merging the current first logical cell and an adjacent first logical cell whose cell type is a cell to be merged, in order to ensure that the merged third logical cell can be used normally, it is also necessary to determine in advance according to the following rules whether the cell configurations of the current first logical cell and the adjacent first logical cell meet the preset merged cell TRP specifications.

[0066] Specifically, firstly, cell configuration information of the current first logical cell and cell configuration information of the adjacent first logical cell are obtained, wherein the cell configuration information at least includes a TPR parameter of the cell, and the TPR parameter includes at least one of the following: transmit power, receive sensitivity, and frequency range;

[0067] Then, determining whether the cell configuration information of the current first logical cell and the cell configuration information of the adjacent first logical cell exceed a preset logical cell TPR parameter threshold;

[0068] When the cell configuration information of the current first logical cell and the cell configuration information of the adjacent first logical cell do not exceed the logical cell TPR parameter threshold, merging the current first logical cell and the adjacent first logical cell;

[0069] When the cell configuration information of the current first logical cell and the cell configuration information of the adjacent first logical cell exceed the logical cell TPR parameter threshold, it is further determined whether the cell configurations of the current first logical cell and another adjacent first logical cell whose cell type is a cell to be merged meet the preset merged cell TRP specification.

[0070] For example, the preset threshold value of the TPR parameter of the merged logical cell is 8 TRPs. If the current first logical cell A is composed of 4 TRPs and the adjacent first logical cell B is composed of 6 TRPs, then after the current first logical cell A and the adjacent first logical cell B are merged, the cell TPR parameter of the larger logical cell obtained will exceed the above threshold. Then, continue to traverse other adjacent first logical cells whose cell type is the cell to be merged. If the adjacent first logical cell C is composed of 4 TRPs, the current first logical cell A can be merged with the adjacent first logical cell C, and after the merger, a third logical cell composed of 8 TRPs can be obtained.

[0071] It should be noted that the cell management method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to campuses, industrial parks and other areas. Taking the campus as an example, when students return to school after the holiday, it can be determined that the merged cell during the holiday is split into multiple logical cells, and the splitting early warning system is triggered to send a cell splitting prompt message (in the form of but not limited to ringing, prompting light flashing). When students leave school for vacation, it can be determined that the merged cell is split into multiple logical cells and / or multiple physical cells, and the splitting early warning system is triggered to stop sending cell splitting prompt messages. Among them, the number of merged cells and the number of split cells can be set according to the actual application scenario.

[0072] Based on the scheme defined in the above steps S202 to S206, it can be known that in the embodiment, by analyzing the multi-dimensional load information of multiple first logical cells at each time, the load score and load score change trend of each first logical cell at each time are obtained. For each first logical cell, the cell type of the first logical cell is determined in combination with its load score and load score change trend, including a cell to be split or a cell to be merged, and finally the corresponding management operation is performed on the current first logical cell according to the cell type. Dynamic analysis of load changes in different scenarios is achieved to intelligently manage logical cells, wherein, in idle scenarios (such as low traffic or non-holidays), in order to reduce the number of user movements and switching between cells, multiple logical cells with low loads can be merged into a larger logical cell; and in busy scenarios (such as large traffic or holidays), the merged logical cell can be split into multiple small logical cells to improve large capacity demands and ensure user performance when multiple users are under high load. Thereby solving the technical problem that the related technology uses artificial methods to merge and split the merged cells, resulting in high manual operation costs and large workloads.
