Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a BBU pooling processing method, device and BBU. Background Art

[0002] Mainstream mobile communication systems usually consist of two main parts: a baseband unit (BBU) and a remote radio unit (RRU) or an active antenna unit (AAU). The BBU is connected to the core network via the transmission network and to the RRU or AAU. Mainstream BBUs include two main architectures: a frame-type multi-board and a box-type single board.

[0003] Both of the above base station architectures are limited by the physical connection of optical fiber. Each RRU or AAU has a fixed interconnection correspondence with the specific optical interface of the BBU, which can only be changed by manually plugging and unplugging the cable. Among them, the macro station RRU / AAU and BBU are directly connected point-to-point or point-to-point after cascading, and need to correspond to a specific optical interface. Therefore, for 4G / 5G base stations deployed on a large scale in the existing network, the baseband processing board (or BBU single board) where the BBU optical interface is located completes the baseband signal processing function of the cell to which the RRU / AAU physically connected belongs.

[0004] The base station platform deployed in the existing network has reserved processing resources. The network construction is configured according to the peak demand of the deployment area and can meet the peak throughput of the planned number of cells.

[0005] In real-world scenarios, the baseband signal processing overhead has a tidal effect. The size of the processing overhead depends on the user activity and service traffic in the cell. When users use the cell intensively, a tidal effect of service volume peaks is generated, and when users leave the area in large numbers or reduce their activities at night, the service volume drops to a trough. During the trough period of the tidal effect, the processing resources required for the BBU deployed in the existing network are reduced according to the change in service volume.

[0006] With the rapid growth of mobile communication bandwidth demand, the performance of communication systems has been greatly improved, while the system energy consumption has continued to rise. Energy saving and consumption reduction has always been one of the focuses of the industry. Compared with RRU / AAU, the deployment location of baseband processing unit BBU is more centralized, the total amount of processing resources reserved is more significant, and it has the application foundation of pooling energy saving.

[0007] Faced with the tidal effect and other scenarios that exist in the existing network and change periodically over time, when valley traffic appears in multiple cells within the board at the same time and a single board can process the service data of the corresponding coverage areas of the original two or more baseband boards, technical means can be used to break through the baseband processing board of the baseband processing unit BBU, which is subject to the physical constraints of the one-to-one correspondence of the fronthaul (interface between BBU and RRU), to achieve pooling between boards, which can achieve energy saving and consumption reduction during valley periods, or be used for other business processing.

[0288] In summary, the embodiment of the present invention proposes a technical solution for pooling of wireless base stations in tidal scenarios for a frame-type multi-board architecture BBU. The embodiment of the present invention combines the implementation of the underlying hardware, user-controlled cell switching and other technical means, and realizes flexible reuse and sharing of processing resources between different baseband processing boards in the frame through more flexible pooled resource scheduling, thereby achieving a better cross-baseband board pooling energy saving effect. The embodiment of the present invention provides the hardware architecture standard and technical implementation method of each single board in the frame-type architecture BBU, without the need to add additional hardware units, and thus does not increase costs. At the same time, without adding additional hardware units, the increase in the probability of system failure is also avoided, and the hardware MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) indicator will not deteriorate due to the failure points caused by the newly added hardware equipment, thereby ensuring that the high reliability of commercial base stations is maintained after pooling. The user is not aware of the pooling scheduling process in the embodiment of the present invention, which can ensure that pooling scheduling is realized under the condition of uninterrupted business, and the baseband processing unit resources are fully utilized, thereby achieving energy saving and consumption reduction of the baseband processing unit of the base station.

[0289] The embodiment of the present invention proposes a pooling method and implementation of a baseband processing unit BBU of a wireless communication base station. Under the tidal effect, the service processing volume of the baseband processing unit during the trough period is reduced, resulting in a processing resource demand that is less than half of the demand during the peak period, and may even reach less than one-tenth. The embodiment of the present invention can support the sharing of processing resources between multiple baseband processing boards of the BBU to form a baseband processing resource pool. Compared with the existing solution of reserving full resources and scheduling only within one baseband board or one single-board solution BBU, the embodiment of the present invention has a wider range of flexible pooling and significantly improved energy saving effects. The embodiment of the present invention releases the reserved computing power of the BBU or baseband processing board when the service volume is lower than the pooling threshold, allowing part of the hardware to enter a sleep or low-power state, thereby achieving a more significant energy saving effect than previous solutions, and through innovative methods, it can also ensure that cell services are not interrupted in areas without overlapping coverage.

[0304] m) During the pooling process, when the working BWP of UEx is changed to a subset of BWP1-off, its corresponding working BWP is BWP1-offx.

[0305] n) During the pooling process, when the working BWP of UEx and UEy is changed to BWP1, their corresponding working BWPs are BWP1x and BWP1y.

[0306] This example targets the requirements of the existing macro site scenario, and takes the example that the pooled closed baseband board and the pooled target baseband board each support one 100M frequency band NR cell (that is, BWP0=BWP1, which is the same 100M frequency band range).

[0307] like Figure 5 As shown, the pooling startup process is as follows:

[0308] 1. Set and adjust the BWP of the cells in the area covered by the baseband board A for pre-pooling power reduction, and adjust the BWP of the ID0 cell from BWP to BWP0-off. In this example, BWP0-off is 40% higher than BWP0 (this is the recommended range, and it can occupy either high or low frequency bands. This example requires that the BWP range set for the cell to be closed and the target cell to be migrated be divided into different continuous frequency bands. The percentage is only an example and is not limited. This example supports adjusting the proportion range according to the actual scenario business volume).

[0309] 2. Set and adjust the working BWP of all UEx to the frequency band range BWP0-offx that UEx can support within the BWP0-off frequency band. The BWP0-offx corresponding to each UE is a BWP0-off subset, which is determined by the hardware capability of UEx and is the channel bandwidth that it can support within the frequency band. The specific steps include:

[0310] a) Query all UEx supported BWP capability information;

[0311] b) Determine the position and bandwidth of BWP0-offx of UEx in BWP0-off according to the query result and RRC policy;

[0312] c) RRC completes the corresponding update of all UEx BWP parameters and configures all UEx in the ID0 cell;

[0313] i. Set the starting PRB position of BWP0-offx;

[0314] ii. Set the number of consecutive RBs for BWP0-offx;

[0315] iii. Set other BWP0-off related parameters of UEx to keep them consistent with the original parameters;

[0316] iv. Complete the corresponding settings for UEx and working BWP0-offx in all ID0 cells;

[0317] d) All UEs in the ID0 cell operate in the BWP0-off frequency band;

[0318] 3. Set and adjust the BWP of the ID1 cell in the area covered by the target baseband board B for pooled service migration to BWP1-on. BWP1-on is 40% lower than the original channel bandwidth BWP1, satisfying the requirement that there is no frequency overlap between BWP1-on and BWP1-off (this is the recommended range, and it can occupy either high or low frequency bands. This example requires ensuring that the BWP range set for the cell to be closed and the target cell to be migrated is divided into different continuous frequency bands. The percentage is only an example. This example supports adjusting the proportion range according to the actual scenario business volume).

[0319] 4. Set and adjust the working BWP of all UEy to the frequency band range BWP1-ony that UEy can support within the BWP1-on frequency band range. The BWP1-ony corresponding to each UE is a subset of BWP1-on, which is the channel bandwidth within the frequency band that it can support, determined by the hardware capability of UEy. The specific steps include:

[0320] a) Query all UEy supported BWP capability information;

[0321] b) Determine the position and bandwidth of BWP1-ony of UEy in BWP1-on according to the query result and RRC policy;

[0322] c) RRC completes the corresponding update of all UEy BWP parameters and configures all UEy in the ID1 cell;

[0323] i. Set the starting PRB position of BWP1-ony;

[0324] ii. Set the number of consecutive RBs for BWP1-ony;

[0325] iii. Set other BWP1-ony related parameters of UEy to keep them consistent with the original parameters;

[0326] iv. Complete the corresponding settings for all UEy work in the ID1 cell BWP1-ony;

[0327] d) All UEs in the ID1 cell operate in the BWP1-ony frequency band;

[0328] 5. In the baseband board A of the pooling energy saving in the base station, simulate the establishment of a cell with the same ID as the target baseband board B of the service migration after pooling; the specific steps include:

[0329] a) Internal scheduling of the base station, forwarding the downlink data in the ID1 cell BWP1-on covered by the pooling target board B to the pooling power-saving baseband board A through the backplane;

[0330] i. Set the source address and destination address of the pooled target board B switching unit;

[0331] ii. Set the source address and destination address of the pooled shutdown board A switching unit;

[0332] iii. Set up synchronization to start data exchange;

[0333] b) Synchronously set the pooled power-saving baseband board A to use the data in BWP1-on (including user service data and control signaling) generated by the pooled target board B to replace the data of the corresponding BWP in the A board, that is, the BWP1-on part of the bandwidth (in this example, it is set to 40% lower, the lower 40% of BWP0 and the lower 40% of BWP1-on are in the same frequency band, and the bandwidth is 40M. This example supports percentage adjustment based on the actual margin);

[0334] c) Synchronously set the data related to the new user service in the ID1 cell received by the baseband board A to be pooled for power reduction to be directly transferred to the pooling target baseband board B for processing without processing;

[0335] d) Synchronously set the baseband board A to be pooled for power reduction to abandon the data in the BWP other than the simulated ID1 cell BWP1-on and not forward it;

[0336] 6. Through the settings, the target board B receives the frequency band corresponding data of BWP1-on sent by the power-reduction board A, and combines them in the form of baseband merging or RF merging. The remaining BWP data is discarded as invalid data, and the coverage of the target baseband board B in the coverage area of ​​the pooled power-reduction baseband board A is completed;

[0337] 7. All users in the ID0 cell covered by control board A are migrated to the ID1 cell in batches;

[0338] Method 1

[0339] a) Perform digital gain adjustment on the amplitude of all data in the cell, gradually reducing the transmit power of the ID0 cell at a speed of about 0.5 dB per second (this speed is just an example, and this example supports selecting different adjustment speeds according to actual conditions);

[0340] b) UEx actively switches from ID0 to ID1 cell due to power reduction;

[0341] c) The BWP corresponding to UEx is set to BWP1-onx, and BWP1-onx is a subset of BWP1-on;

[0342] d) After all UEx are switched to the ID1 cell, all the data sent by the ID0 cell are actively adjusted to 0;

[0343] Method (2)

[0344] The control triggers the UEs in the idle state to complete cell reselection in batches.

[0345] a) The base station sends a broadcast message to configure the neighboring cell frequency and priority, as well as the reselection threshold. In this cell, the target cell ID1 is configured as the highest priority, and the target cell threshold is reduced to -110dBm (or other threshold values ​​that can ensure triggering UE reselection).

[0346] b) UEx measures the frequency of the broadcast message and triggers cell reselection when the frequency threshold is met.

[0347] Control the UEs in the active state to complete cell switching in batches.

[0348] c) The base station sends measurement control signaling to some terminals, configures the neighboring cell frequency and measurement threshold, and reduces the threshold to -110dBm (or other threshold values ​​that can ensure triggering UE reselection). It sends it in batches of 50 UEs per second at a time interval.

[0349] d) The UE performs measurements according to the measurement control signaling and reports a measurement report when the strength of the neighboring cell signal is higher than the measurement threshold.

[0350] e) The base station makes a handover decision and sends a handover command to 50 UEs per second for the terminal to be handed over.

[0351] f) UEx completes the cell switching according to the switching command.

[0352] This example does not limit the selection of the control switching method, but only needs to ensure that all UEx migrate from ID0 to the target cell ID1.

[0353] 8. Set the pooling off baseband board to energy saving mode;

[0354] a) Set the processor chip required for baseband processing and the processor chip required for board control to power off or reset state;

[0355] b) Setting the aforementioned processing chip peripheral circuits, such as DDR (double data rate synchronous dynamic random access memory) / Flash, to a power-off or reset state;

[0356] c) Set the board control logic related chips, such as EPLD (Erasable Programmable Logic Device), in a controllable state, but keep its working state without generating or minimizing signal changes;

[0357] d) Ensure that the baseband board or BBU in the power-off or reset state retains the function of exchanging data with the backplane, and the backplane switching chip is in normal working condition;

[0358] e) Ensure that the hardware required for the fronthaul interface function of the baseband board or BBU that is in a powered-off or reset state is in working condition. The optical module is in normal working condition;

[0359] f) Ensure that the auxiliary circuits of the aforementioned normal working state chips are in normal working state, including board control logic, board clock, power supply, and storage and reset circuits required by related chips;

[0360] g) Ensure that the state adjustment of related processing resources can be realized by the BBU main control processor through commands, directly or through the board control logic introduction to realize the power-off and reset state setting and recovery of related processing chips. For example, the board control logic receives the Ethernet or other format control signaling forwarded by the switching unit for setting and recovery.

[0361] 9. All user services in cell ID1 are uniformly processed by the original processing baseband board of ID1. The original coverage area of ​​cell ID1 of the pooling target baseband board B is expanded to the coverage area of ​​cell ID0 covered by the pooling power-saving baseband board A, and ID0 is replaced;

[0362] a) The baseband user UEx in the original ID0 cell accepts the unified scheduling of the ID1 cell and allocates air interface resources;

[0363] b) The RF merging or baseband merging data processing of UEx user data and UEy user data is implemented in the baseband board B where the original ID1 cell is located. The target baseband board B of the pooled user migration replaces the baseband processing function of the pooled power-saving baseband board A;

[0364] c) The threshold parameters of the ID1 cell processed by the pooled target baseband board B are restored to the normal configuration.

[0365] Optionally, BWP1-on can be further adjusted according to the existing network traffic to meet the service requirements of UEx and UEy. BWP1-on can be equal to BWP1 at most; BWP1-onx of UEx is adjusted according to BWP1-on (it can remain unchanged for small traffic).

[0366] like Figure 5 As shown, the pooling shutdown process is as follows:

[0367] 1. Set the channel bandwidth BWP1-on of the ID1 cell in the coverage area of ​​the pooling target baseband board B during pooling to the low frequency band of BWP1, so that BWP1-on is 40% higher than BWP1 (the percentage is only an example, and this example supports adjusting the ratio range according to the actual scenario traffic volume)

[0368] 2. Set and adjust the working BWP of UEx / UEy to the frequency band range BWP1-onx / BWP1-ony that the UE can support within the BWP1-on frequency band range. The BWP corresponding to each UE is a subset of BWP1-on, which is determined by the hardware capability of UEy;

[0369] a) Query the UE's BWP capability information;

[0370] b) Determine the position and bandwidth of BWP1-onx / BWP1-ony of UEx / UEy in BWP1-on according to the query result and RRC policy;

[0371] c) RRC completes the corresponding update of all UE BWP parameters and configures all UEx / UEy in the ID1 cell;

[0372] i. Set the starting PRB position of BWP1-onx / y for each UEx / y;

[0373] ii. Set the number of consecutive RBs of BWP1-onx / y for each UEx / y;

[0374] iii. Set other BWP1-onx / y related parameters of each UEx / y to keep them consistent with the current parameters;

[0375] d) All UEs in the ID1 cell operate in the BWP1-on frequency band;

[0376] 3. The power-saving baseband board A is turned off or the dormant part is restored to normal operation;

[0377] a) The BBU main control unit sends a control command to restart the powered-off or dormant chip;

[0378] b) The data path of all service data of the ID1 cell sent by the pooling target board B remains unchanged, waiting for the control command of the base station pooling shutdown;

[0379] c) After the pooled power-reduction board A is powered off or the dormant chip is started normally, the data in the BWPs other than BWP1-on where the ID1 cell is located is filled with 0 by the chip in A;

[0380] d) The current cell of the RRU connected to the pooled power reduction board A still maintains the ID1 cell.

[0381] 4. After the pooling function is turned off, the pooling power-saving baseband board A that resumes working will establish the ID0 cell;

[0382] a) BBU simulates the startup process of adding new board A, communicates with the core network, creates a new cell with ID0, and sets BWP to BWP0;

[0383] b) Configure and set the working BWP of the ID0 cell to BWP0-off, which is 40% lower than BWP0 (the percentage is only an example, and this example supports adjusting the ratio and range according to the actual scenario traffic);

[0384] c) In the forward transmission data, the BWP0-off part of the service data in the ID0 cell data is generated by the restored baseband board A, and the BWP1-on part still forwards the data of the ID1 cell;

[0385] 5. Control all users UEx in the ID1 cell covered by the baseband card A after the pooling is closed and restored to the ID0 cell;

[0386] Method 1

[0387] The control triggers the UEs in the idle state to complete cell reselection in batches.

[0388] a) The base station sends a broadcast message to configure the neighboring cell frequency and priority, as well as the reselection threshold. In this cell, the target cell ID1 is configured as the highest priority, and the target cell threshold is reduced to -110dBm (or other threshold values ​​that can ensure triggering UE reselection).

[0389] b) UEx measures the frequency of the broadcast message and triggers cell reselection when the frequency threshold is met.

[0390] Control the UEs in the active state to complete cell switching in batches.

[0391] c) The base station sends measurement control signaling to some terminals, configures the neighboring cell frequency and measurement threshold, and reduces the threshold to -110dBm (or other threshold values ​​that can ensure triggering UE reselection). It sends it in batches of 50 UEs per second at a time interval.

[0392] d) The UE performs measurements according to the measurement control signaling and reports a measurement report when the strength of the neighboring cell signal is higher than the measurement threshold.

[0393] e) The base station makes a handover decision and sends a handover command to 50 UEs per second for the terminal to be handed over.

[0394] f) UEx completes the cell switching according to the switching command.

[0395] Method (2)

[0396] a) The BBU sends a signaling to all UEs in the ID1 cell, temporarily configuring the ID0 cell priority to be higher than the ID1 cell (in this embodiment, it can be set to 7 or other values ​​higher than the ID1 priority), and canceling the rangeToBestCell parameter configuration of each UE in the ID1 cell;

[0397] b) Increase the A2 threshold of each UE in ID1 cell by 3 dB in batches (50 UEs per second) (can be increased or decreased according to the actual coverage of the product) until the 50-user A2 event is triggered and the UE in ID1 cell starts measurement;

[0398] c) Modify the threshold or the corresponding offset value to trigger the UE in the ID0 cell signal available area to generate A4 or A5 event;

[0399] d) Send signaling to switch all UEs in ID1 cell that detect that ID0 cell is available to ID0 cell. UEs that do not detect that ID0 cell is available will switch normally according to the criteria. UEs that do not meet the switching conditions will not be switched and will stay in ID1 cell.

[0400] e) Count the number of available UEs in ID0 cell that reside in ID1 cell in the measurement result. If the number is less than 60, stop new UEs from accessing ID1 cell or switching to ID1;

[0401] Within the coverage of the ID0 cell, after all UEs available in the ID0 cell according to the measurement results are switched to the ID0 cell, the data path within A is adjusted, and the data received by A within the BWP1-on working bandwidth of the ID1 cell is replaced with 0;

[0402] f) Restore the original thresholds or offset parameters of the UE to the normal service state, restore normal access to each cell, and ensure that the time during which the UE cannot randomly access or switch to the ID1 cell does not exceed 1 second.

[0403] This example does not limit the selection of the control switching method, and only needs to ensure that all UEs in the coverage area of ​​the RRU equipment connected to all baseband boards A migrate from the ID1 cell to the ID0 cell.

[0404] Optionally, BWP0-off and BWP1-on can be further adjusted according to the existing network traffic to meet the UE business needs. In this example, the maximum working bandwidth is adjusted back to 100M. The specific setting value is determined according to the actual configuration and device properties.

[0405] 7. The pooling function is turned off and normal operation mode is restored.

[0406] In summary, the embodiment of the present invention solves the problem that the redundancy of the baseband board resources can only be coordinated within the board due to the physical connection limitation of the direct correspondence between the BBU and the RRU / AAU fronthaul interface, and it is difficult to flexibly share cross-board processing resources to achieve energy saving and consumption reduction. The cross-board scheduling and pooling allocation of processing resources between baseband processing boards are realized, so that the processing services carried on the baseband processing board in the low-load area during the valley period are migrated to other baseband boards for combined processing. During the implementation of the scheme, the power consumption of the baseband processing resources is more effectively reduced by partially shutting down or sleeping. In the valley phase of the business, the power consumption of the original baseband board can be reduced by up to 50% or more for the BBU using this scheme, and its energy saving effect greatly exceeds the existing scheme. The embodiment of the present invention solves the problem that the cross-board interaction delay requirement of large-scale control signaling in the original technical scheme is too high. In the pooling process, the signaling-level interaction between all software modules is completed in the original processing hardware, without the need for cross-board transmission, and without the need for ultra-low-latency control signaling forwarding interaction process. Reduce the complexity of the system. Furthermore, the embodiment of the present invention greatly improves the dynamic range of the pooling capability of the resource scheduling within the board through the cross-board pooling of the baseband board, and can cope with a wider range of total peak-to-valley differences, thereby further reducing the energy consumption of the BBU. In addition, the embodiment of the present invention proposes a new method to enable the UE to switch from a cell covered by an RRU to a cell in an adjacent or other area processed by the same BBU without moving its position. During the process, the air interface signal transmitted by the RRU in the area where the UE is located is switched from the original cell to the corresponding adjacent or other area cell air interface signal, and the cell ID is adjusted accordingly. This solution can ensure that the number of cells processed by the target baseband board is not increased during the cross-board pooling process, while all cell services are not interrupted and users do not feel the switching. While avoiding the problem of increased processing resource overhead due to the increase in the number of target baseband board cells, it can ensure that all user services are not interrupted and the existing network KPI is not affected.
