[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Combine the following Figure 1-Figure 11 Specific embodiments of the present invention are described.

[0033] Figure 1 It is one of the flow charts of the base station working parameter calibration method provided by the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following.

[0034] Step 101: parse the minimization of drive test report to obtain multiple valid sampling points.

[0035] Among them, the Minimization Drive Test (MDT) is a measurement report reported by the user terminal to the base station, which is then reported to the network management system by the base station. The user terminal will obtain geographical location information, communication signal parameters and other information at the sampling point at irregular or regular intervals and report them to the base station. The effective sampling point refers to the sampling point used for subsequent data analysis.

[0036] Specifically, the network management system parses the Minimized Drive Test Report (MDT) reported by the User Equipment (UE) to obtain all sampling point information, including the latitude and longitude of the sampling point, the level strength (rsrp, Reference Signal Receiving Power, also known as reference signal received power), and the cell CGI (Cell Global Identifier) ​​information, where srsrp minus 140 is the real level value. Valid sampling points are screened from all sampling points.

[0037] Step 102: extract the minimum boundary of a cell from the multiple valid sampling points to obtain cell drive test coverage boundaries of multiple cells.

[0038] Each base station can have multiple cells. On the map, the minimum external boundary is extracted from the valid sampling points belonging to the same cell to obtain the cell road test coverage boundary of the cell, such as Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 A schematic diagram showing the cell drive test coverage boundary of a cell.

[0039] Step 103: Determine an overlapping area of ​​co-frequency cells belonging to the same base station based on the cell drive test coverage boundaries of the multiple cells.

[0040] Specifically, since the cell coverage ranges of different sites are different, the cell coverage radius of different frequency bands of the same base station is also different. Therefore, among all the cell drive test coverage boundaries, the cell drive test coverage boundaries of the same frequency band belonging to the same base station are searched, and their overlapping areas are calculated, such as Figure 3 As shown, the overlapping area of ​​the three cell road test coverage boundaries CELLA, CELLB and CELLC is A.

[0041] Step 104: Determine the cell drive test simulation longitude and latitude of the base station according to the center position of the overlapping area of ​​the same-frequency cells.

[0042] Specifically, the longitude and latitude coordinates of the center position of the overlapping area A are used as the longitude and latitude of the cell drive test simulation of the base station.

[0043] Step 105: calibrate the base station engineering parameter longitude and latitude of the base station based on the cell drive test simulation longitude and latitude of the base station.

[0044] Specifically, the base station engineering parameters have been saved in the engineering parameter database in advance, including the Chinese name of the cell, cell CGI, station type, working frequency band, scenario category, RRU (Remote Radio Unit) longitude, RRU latitude, engineering parameter azimuth, etc. of the entire network 4 / 5G base station. The base station engineering parameter longitude and latitude of the saved base station are retrieved from the engineering parameter database, and the distance between the two points is calculated based on the base station engineering parameter longitude and latitude and the cell simulation longitude and latitude. If the distance between the two points is greater than the preset distance threshold DL meters (DL is taken as 50 in this solution), the base station engineering parameter longitude and latitude is considered abnormal, and the above-mentioned cell road test simulation longitude and latitude calibration and update are required. The calibrated longitude and latitude are the cell location information.

[0045] In the above embodiment, multiple valid sampling points are obtained by parsing the minimized drive test report; the minimum boundary of the cell is extracted from the multiple valid sampling points to obtain the cell drive test coverage boundary of multiple cells; based on the cell drive test coverage boundary of multiple cells, the overlapping area of ​​the same frequency cells belonging to the same base station is determined; according to the center position of the overlapping area of ​​the same frequency cells, the cell drive test simulation longitude and latitude of the base station is determined; based on the cell drive test simulation longitude and latitude of the base station, the base station engineering parameter longitude and latitude of the base station is calibrated. This method can realize the automatic calibration of the base station engineering parameter longitude and latitude; further, this method uses the minimized drive test report as the data source for evaluating the base station engineering parameter, and the minimized drive test report is the latest data directly reported by the user terminal, which has high validity and improves the timeliness of the longitude and latitude update; this data carries geographic location information, can directly reflect the user distribution, and is the minimum granularity sampling point. Compared with the traditional method based on raster data granularity calculation, the minimized measurement report data sample is sufficient, the error is small, and the accuracy of the base station longitude and latitude evaluation can be improved; further, it also provides more accurate base station longitude and latitude for subsequent calibration of the cell azimuth, thereby improving the accuracy of the cell azimuth.

[0046] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 A flow chart of an engineering parameter azimuth calibration method in another embodiment is shown, that is, after the above step 105, it also includes.

[0047] Step 401, constructing a coverage circle with the calibrated longitude and latitude of the base station as the center and a preset cell reference average coverage radius as the radius.

[0048] Among them, the pre-set cell reference average coverage radius is obtained in advance through big data statistics. Because the coverage distances of different scenarios and different frequency bands are different, in order to obtain a more accurate cell simulation azimuth, it is necessary to refine the frequency band scenario coverage radius relationship mapping table. The following Table 1 is the cell reference average coverage radius obtained by using a large amount of MDT sampling point data and big data calculation.

[0049] Table 1 Frequency band scene radius relationship mapping table

[0050] Specifically, taking the location of the calibrated base station engineering parameter longitude and latitude as the center of the circle, the reference average coverage radius of the cell corresponding to the base station is found from the above-mentioned frequency band scene radius relationship mapping table to construct a coverage circle, such as Figure 5 shown.

[0051] Step 402: cluster the multiple valid sampling points until the sum of the intra-cluster square sums of all clusters within the coverage circle converges, and then the cluster with the largest intra-cluster square sum is used as the main coverage cluster of the cell.

[0052] The cluster refers to one of the multiple sets obtained by the clustering method.

[0053] Specifically, in the present application, the above multiple valid sampling points can be clustered to obtain multiple clusters. The cluster sum of squares (CSS) of each cluster is calculated, and then the sum of the cluster sums of squares of all clusters is calculated, that is, TATALCSS. The calculation formula of the cluster sum of squares CSS of each cluster is as follows: ; in, is the position coordinate of the i-th feature parameter of the j-th valid sampling point, m represents the total number of valid sampling points in a cluster, and n represents the number of features in each valid sampling point. In this scheme, only the distance feature is used, so represents the position (i.e. longitude and latitude) of the jth valid sampling point, is the location (i.e. longitude and latitude) of the centroid of the current cluster.

[0054] Centroid The calculation formula for longitude and latitude is: ; in, Represents the centroid of the current cluster The longitude, Represents the centroid of the current cluster The latitude, represents the longitude of the jth valid sampling point, Indicates the latitude of the jth valid sampling point.

[0055] The calculation formula for the sum of the intra-cluster sums of squares of all clusters, TATALCSS, is: ; in, represents the intra-cluster sum of squares of the kth cluster, and p represents the total number of clusters.

[0056] In step 402, the effective sampling points can be clustered by a variety of clustering methods, such as the kmeans clustering method, which requires continuous iteration of the kmeans clustering algorithm. In each round of iteration, the latitude and longitude mean of the sampling points is the centroid point of the next round of clustering. If the TATALCSS value of the clustering result of the next round of iteration does not change and is the same as the result of the previous round (that is, TATALCSS reaches convergence), then the TATALCSS value is optimal. At this time, the cluster with the largest intra-cluster square sum CSS is used as the main coverage cluster of the cell.

[0057] Step 403, calculate the sum of the reference signal reception qualities of all valid sampling points in the cell primary coverage cluster, and use the ratio of the reference signal reception quality of each valid sampling point to the sum of the reference signal reception qualities of all valid sampling points as the position centroid weight of each valid sampling point.

[0058] Specifically, the cell main coverage cluster is identified in step 402, and then the sum of rsrq (Reference Signal Receiving Quality) of all points in the cluster is calculated, and the reference signal receiving quality of the i-th valid sampling point is calculated. The ratio of the sum of the reference signal reception quality of all sampling points rsrqall is used as the position centroid weight of the i-th valid sampling point : ; Step 404: based on the centroid weights of the locations of the respective valid sampling points, weight the locations of all valid sampling points in the cell main coverage cluster to obtain the centroid latitude and longitude of the location of the cell main coverage cluster.

[0059] Specifically, based on the above position center weight , get the i-th valid sampling point The longitude is , latitude is , then the longitude and latitude of the center of gravity of the cluster for( , ); m represents the total number of valid sampling points in a cluster.

[0060] Step 405, calculating the cell simulation azimuth according to the longitude and latitude of the center of gravity point.

[0061] The simulated azimuth of the cell represents the angle between the line connecting the centroid and the cell location and the true north direction. Its practical meaning is the strongest azimuth in the cell radiation direction and can be used to characterize the actual working parameter azimuth of the cell antenna.

[0062] Specifically, according to the definition of the above-mentioned cell simulation azimuth, the cell simulation azimuth can be calculated using the following formula. Since the longitude and latitude are in the WGS84 (World Geodetic System 1984 Coordinate System, 1984 World Geodetic Coordinate System) coordinate system, the cell longitude and latitude coordinates need to be converted into Mercator projection coordinates first, and then the cell simulation azimuth is calculated according to the following geometric formula: for: ; in, is the longitude of the centroid point O of the cell main coverage cluster, It is the latitude of the centroid point O of the main coverage cluster of the cell.

[0063] Step 406: based on the cell simulation azimuth, calibrate the cell engineering parameter azimuth corresponding to the cell main coverage cluster.

[0064] Specifically, the cell engineering parameter azimuth saved in the engineering parameter database is compared with the above-mentioned cell simulation azimuth, and then according to the scene mapping difference threshold, if the difference between the simulation azimuth and the engineering parameter azimuth exceeds the corresponding preset azimuth threshold, the cell engineering parameter azimuth is considered abnormal, and the azimuth data in the engineering parameter database needs to be modified according to the cell simulation azimuth. Assume that the engineering parameter azimuth of a cell is , calculate the simulation azimuth as The difference between the two is , The calculation formula is as follows: ; The formula for judging the abnormality of the engineering parameter azimuth is as follows: ; in, is the preset azimuth threshold.

[0065] Abnormal thresholds in different scenarios As shown in Table 2 below.

[0066] Table 2 Mapping table of cell engineering parameter azimuth relationship by frequency band and scenario

[0067] An example of the results of the cell simulation azimuth verification is shown in Table 3 below.

[0068] Table 3 Frequency band scene azimuth relationship mapping table

[0069] In the above embodiment, by clustering the effective sampling points after filtering the cell MDT noise points and identifying the main coverage cluster, the cell simulation azimuth is obtained after calculating the centroid of the main coverage cluster, thereby realizing automatic calibration of the cell engineering parameter azimuth, reducing labor costs and improving calibration efficiency.

[0070] In one embodiment, the above-mentioned step 402 includes: dividing the coverage circle into multiple sectors on an even basis; clustering the multiple valid sampling points based on the Euclidean distance from each valid sampling point to the centroid of each sector to obtain multiple clusters; updating the mean longitude and latitude of the valid sampling points in each cluster to the centroid of each cluster; clustering the multiple valid sampling points based on the Euclidean distance from each valid sampling point to the updated centroid of each cluster; calculating the sum of the intra-cluster sums of squares of all clusters in the coverage circle after each round of clustering; returning to the step of updating the mean longitude and latitude of the valid sampling points in each cluster to the centroid of each cluster, until the sum of the intra-cluster sums of squares of all clusters in the coverage circle converges.

[0071] In detail, this embodiment adopts the kmeans clustering algorithm, takes the updated base station engineering parameter longitude and latitude as the center, and takes the preset cell reference average coverage radius as the radius to construct a coverage circle, such as Figure 5 As shown; the coverage circle is evenly divided into multiple sectors as initial clustering clusters, such as Figure 6 As shown, named as cluster 1, cluster 2, ... cluster N, each sector has a centroid, based on the Euclidean distance from each valid sampling point to the centroid of each sector, the multiple valid sampling points are clustered to obtain multiple new clusters, the centroid of each cluster is updated, that is, the mean of the longitude and latitude of the valid sampling points in each cluster is updated to the centroid of each cluster, clustering is performed again based on the Euclidean distance from each valid sampling point to the new centroid, and the sum of the intra-cluster sum of squares CSS of all clusters in the coverage circle after each round of clustering is calculated T The smaller the ATALCSS and TATALCSS are, the smaller the clustering error is and the more accurate the clustering result is. In order to obtain the minimum TATALCSS value, it is necessary to continuously iterate the kmeans clustering algorithm (using the latitude and longitude mean of the effective sampling points as the centroid point of the next round of clustering). If the TATALCSS value of the clustering result of the next round of iteration does not change and is the same as the result of the previous round, then the TATALCSS value is optimal. After obtaining the optimal TATALCSS value, the cluster with the largest CSS value among the N clusters of the cell is the main coverage cluster of the cell, such as Figure 7 shown.

[0072] In the above embodiment, the kmeans algorithm is used to cluster all valid sampling points within the base station coverage circle, so that the main coverage cluster of the cell can be identified, providing a data basis for calculating the simulated azimuth of the cell.

[0073] In one embodiment, the step 101 includes: parsing the minimization of drive tests report to obtain a plurality of initial sampling points; and removing noise points from the plurality of initial sampling points to obtain the plurality of valid sampling points.

[0074] Specifically, the network management system parses the minimized drive test (MDT) report reported by the user terminal (UE) to obtain information on all sampling points, which are called initial sampling points. Since the initial sampling points may include points with data errors, which will affect subsequent analysis results, it is necessary to perform data denoising on the initial sampling points. Generally, the sampling points belonging to the same base station cell are generally concentrated, and if there are points in the cell that are far away from the base station, they can be considered as noise points. After removing such noise points, valid sampling points are obtained.

[0075] In the above embodiment, noise points are removed from the initial sampling points, so that the cell boundary is located more accurately and the calibration accuracy is improved.

[0076] In one embodiment, the removing noise points from the multiple initial sampling points to obtain the multiple valid sampling points specifically includes: clustering the multiple initial sampling points according to the density distribution between the initial sampling points, treating the initial sampling points that cannot be clustered as noise points, and removing the noise points from the multiple initial sampling points to obtain the multiple valid sampling points.

[0077] Specifically, the present application distinguishes different cells according to the density distribution of sampling points, but since the initial sampling points may contain some erroneous data, the subsequent cell boundary extraction is inaccurate, so it is necessary to remove noise points. The present application removes noise points according to the density distribution, mainly focusing on the density distribution between data points, and forming clusters by identifying dense areas in the initial sampling points. Specifically, this embodiment uses DBSCAN (Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise) to implement density clustering. DBSCAN is a density-based spatial clustering algorithm that can identify noise points and find clusters of arbitrary shapes. It does not require the number of clusters to be specified in advance, but defines the density of data points through two core parameters (neighborhood radius r and minimum number of points MinPts). Its working principle: the algorithm first identifies the core points (that is, the data points with at least MinPts points in its r neighborhood), and then builds clusters based on density accessibility (points connected by a series of core points). Points that do not belong to any cluster are regarded as noise. Specifically, the density clustering algorithm DBSCAN (r, MinPts) clusters the MDT sampling points. In this scheme, r is the reference average coverage radius of the cell, MinPts is the density threshold, that is, the minimum number of clustering sampling points. In this scheme, Minpts is 3. Points that cannot be clustered are identified as noise points. The noise points are removed to obtain multiple valid sampling points.

[0078] In the above embodiment, the initial sampling point denoising is achieved by using a density clustering algorithm, which is beneficial to the subsequent extraction of cell boundaries and improves the accuracy of boundary extraction.

[0079] In one embodiment, the step 102 includes: using a concave hull algorithm to extract the minimum boundary of the cell from the multiple valid sampling points to obtain the cell drive test coverage boundaries of the multiple cells.

[0080] Among them, the concave hull algorithm is a method used in computational geometry to generate a polygon that encloses a given set of points. The boundary of the polygon is composed of a subset of the point set, and the polygon is allowed to have concave parts, which is opposite to the convex hull, which requires that all boundaries are convex.

[0081] Specifically, the present application uses the concave hull algorithm to extract the boundaries of the valid sampling points in each cell, and obtains the cell road test coverage boundaries of each cell, such as Figure 8 shown.

[0082] In the above embodiment, the cell boundary is extracted by the concave hull algorithm, which provides data for the subsequent calculation of the cell center of gravity.

[0083] In one embodiment, the above-mentioned preset reference average coverage radius of the cell is obtained by utilizing big data analysis, and the reference average coverage radius of the cell in different scenarios or different frequency bands is different.

[0084] Specifically, because the coverage distances of different scenarios and different frequency bands are different, in order to obtain a more accurate cell simulation azimuth, it is necessary to refine the mapping table of the frequency band and scenario coverage radius relationship. The following table is the reference average coverage radius of the cell obtained by using a large amount of MDT sampling point data and big data calculation.

[0085] Table 4 Frequency band scene radius relationship mapping table

[0086] The above embodiment obtains the reference average coverage radius of the cell at different sites and different frequency bands through the data mining technology of big data, provides a data basis for the subsequent calculation of the longitude and latitude of the cell and the simulated azimuth of the cell, and further improves the level of automated calibration of the longitude and latitude of the base station engineering parameters and the azimuth of the cell engineering parameters.

[0087] In one embodiment, if Fig. 9 As shown, Fig. 9 The complete flow chart of the base station working parameter calibration method provided by this application is shown. This solution first collects the base station working parameter data and organizes these data. The 4 / 5G working parameters of the entire network need to include the Chinese name of the cell, the cell CGI, the station type, the working frequency band, the scenario category, the RRU longitude, the RRU latitude, and the working parameter azimuth. Parse the MDT data reported by the terminal, and store the relevant data in the database for calling, which mainly includes the longitude, latitude, level strength srsrp, and cell CGI information of the sampling point; use a large amount of MDT sampling point data and the cell reference average coverage radius calculated by big data to make a cell reference average coverage radius mapping table; cluster the MDT sampling points according to the density clustering algorithm DBSCAN (r, MinPts), and remove the points that cannot be clustered as noise points; use the concave hull algorithm to extract the cell MDT coverage boundary from the set of sampling points where the noise points are removed, calculate the MDT coverage simulation diagram of the cell with the same station and the same frequency on a station basis, and then calculate the coverage of the cell under the station. The overlapping area of ​​the cell coverage simulation map is calculated, and then the center position of the overlapping area is calculated as the cell simulation longitude and latitude of the site; calibrate the cell longitude and latitude: calculate the distance between the two points according to the engineering parameter longitude and longitude and the simulation longitude and longitude. If the distance between the two points is greater than DL meters (DL is 50 in this solution), it is considered that the engineering parameter longitude and longitude are abnormal and need to be calibrated and updated using the MDT simulation longitude and longitude; use the clustering algorithm to identify the main coverage cluster of the cell, and calculate the center of gravity of the main coverage cluster of the cell, obtain the connection between the center of gravity and the base station, and calculate the angle between the connection and the north direction as the cell simulation azimuth. Finally, update the engineering parameter azimuth in the engineering parameter database according to the difference between the cell simulation azimuth and the engineering parameter azimuth.

[0088] The above-mentioned embodiment can quickly realize the calibration of the working parameter azimuth angle, which will greatly improve the accuracy of the wireless network optimization solution, thereby improving the network quality and user perception. The method has high accuracy in identifying the working parameter azimuth angle of abnormal cells, high calculation efficiency and low investment cost.
