Description

Management method and communication device for electric control equipment Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of communication technology, and more specifically, to a management method and communication device for electric regulation equipment. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous evolution of network standards, communication networks are supporting an increasing number of frequency bands. For example, communication networks now support frequency bands such as 700 megahertz (MHz), 800 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, 2100 MHz, 2600 MHz, and 3500 MHz. However, this comes with the increasing number of antennas that need to be installed on antenna panels. This makes the limited space on antenna panels a bottleneck for base station deployment.

[0003] To save antenna panel space, the concept of multi-band antennas has been proposed, meaning a single physical antenna can support multiple frequency bands. While multi-band antennas save antenna panel space, they also pose challenges in managing the electrical tilt equipment used to power them. For example, accurately adjusting the cell tilt angle for each frequency band supported by a multi-band antenna is a challenge.

[0004] Currently, electronic adjustment of cell tilt in multi-band antenna scenarios relies primarily on manual means, which limits its applicability and introduces adjustment errors. Therefore, enhancing the accuracy of electronic adjustment of cell tilt is a technical issue that needs to be addressed urgently.

[0005] Summary of the Invention

[0006] The present application provides a management method and a communication device for electrical tilt equipment, which can enhance the accuracy of electrical tilt adjustment of a cell.

[0007] In a first aspect, a method for managing an electrically adjustable device is provided. The method is applied to a first communication device side, where the first communication device manages at least one electrically adjustable device and at least two cells. The method includes: generating first information for determining a first mapping table, where each mapping relationship in the first mapping table indicates a corresponding relationship between an electrically adjustable device and one or more cells; and sending the first information to a second communication device.

[0008] Specifically, each mapping relationship in the first mapping table indicates a correspondence between a remote control device and one or more cells. Each mapping relationship may indicate a correspondence between an identifier of a remote control device and identifiers of one or more cells. In one possible implementation, the identifier of the remote control device is the serial number of the remote control device, the identifier of the cell is the cell identifier, and the serial number of the remote control device corresponds to the cell identifiers of one or more cells. Therefore, each mapping relationship in the first mapping table may indicate a correspondence between the serial number of the remote control device and the cell identifiers of one or more cells, thereby associating the remote control device with the cell.

[0009] By generating first information for determining a first mapping table through a first communication device, this application supports automated acquisition of correspondences between electrically-controlled devices and cells managed by the first communication device, thereby eliminating manual operations by the user and improving the user experience. Furthermore, when the number of electrically-controlled devices and cells managed by the first communication device changes, the above solution can also facilitate acquisition of updated correspondences between electrically-controlled devices and cells.

[0010] Through the above solution, the present application can support centralized management of electrical tilt devices in a "what you see is what you get" manner. For example, when electrically adjusting the tilt angle of a cell, the association between the electrical tilt device (or the serial number of the electrical tilt device) and the cell (or the cell identifier of the cell) can be directly displayed. For example, if an administrator wants to adjust the tilt angle of a certain cell, they can set a tilt adjustment command for that cell. The first communication device or the second communication device can then use the first mapping table to find the electrical tilt device corresponding to that cell, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the corresponding cell using the electrical tilt device.

[0011] In addition, the above technical solution can enhance the accuracy of the electrical adjustment of the cell tilt angle and avoid adjustment errors.

[0012] In one possible implementation, the first communication device supports at least two frequency bands, and the first information includes at least one of the following: a first mapping table, a second mapping table, or a third mapping table; each mapping relationship in the second mapping table indicates the correspondence between an electric adjustment device and a frequency band, and each mapping relationship in the third mapping table indicates the correspondence between a cell and a frequency band; wherein the first mapping table is determined based on the second mapping table and the third mapping table.

[0013] Specifically, the correspondence between a remote control device and a frequency band indicated by each mapping relationship in the second mapping table can be: each mapping relationship indicates the correspondence between the serial number of a remote control device and a frequency band. Therefore, each mapping relationship in the second mapping table can indicate the correspondence between the serial number of a remote control device and a frequency band. Similarly, the correspondence between a cell and a frequency band indicated by each mapping relationship in the third mapping table can be: each mapping relationship indicates the correspondence between the cell identifier of a cell and a frequency band. Therefore, each mapping relationship in the third mapping table can indicate the correspondence between the cell identifier of a cell and a frequency band.

[0014] Specifically, when the first information includes the second mapping table and the third mapping table, the second communication device may establish a correspondence between the electrically variable device managed by the first communication device and the cell based on the second mapping table and the third mapping table. Alternatively, when the first information includes one of the second mapping table and the third mapping table, the second communication device may establish a correspondence between the electrically variable device managed by the first communication device and the cell based on the one item included in the first information and another preconfigured item.

[0015] Among them, this application supports associating the association relationship between the electrical modulation device managed by the first communication device and the cell through the intermediate parameter of the frequency band.

[0016] In one possible implementation, the first information includes a second mapping table, and generating the first information includes: receiving second information from a third communication device, which is used to determine the correspondence between frequency bands and serial numbers of some or all of the electrically adjustable devices in at least one electrically adjustable device; and determining the second mapping table based on the second information.

[0017] Specifically, the present application supports information exchange between a first communication device and a third communication device to obtain second information used to determine a second mapping table, and sends the determined second mapping table to the second communication device. Accordingly, the second communication device establishes an association relationship between the electrical tilt device managed by the first communication device and the cell based on the pre-configured third mapping table and the second mapping table sent by the first communication device, thereby achieving accurate electrical tilt of the cell and avoiding adjustment errors in the cell tilt. At the same time, when the number of electrical tilt devices and cells managed by the first communication device changes, the above scheme can also help obtain the updated correspondence between the electrical tilt device and the cell.

[0018] In a possible implementation, the second information is used to indicate the frequency bands and serial numbers of some or all electrically adjustable devices; or, the second information is used to indicate the serial numbers of some or all electrically adjustable devices.

[0019] In this way, the first communication device can determine the correspondence between the electrically adjustable devices (or the serial numbers of the electrically adjustable devices) managed by the first communication device and the frequency bands according to the information.

[0020] In one possible implementation, the second information includes the serial numbers of some or all of the electrically adjustable devices, and determining the second mapping table based on the second information includes: determining the second mapping table based on the serial numbers of some or all of the electrically adjustable devices and the correspondence between the pre-configured color ring numbers and the frequency bands; wherein the serial number of one electrically adjustable device corresponds to one color ring number, and one color ring number corresponds to one frequency band.

[0021] Through the above technical solution, the present application can reduce the signaling overhead of the third communication device, which only needs to feed back the serial number of the electrical adjustment device to the first communication device.

[0022] In one possible implementation, the first information includes a third mapping table, and generating the first information includes: sending a first request information to a terminal device, where the terminal device is located in an anchor cell among at least two cells; receiving first feedback information from the terminal device, which is a response to the first request information, the first feedback information including a frequency band and a cell identifier of each cell among at least two cells; and determining the third mapping table based on the frequency band and the cell identifier of each cell.

[0023] Specifically, the present application supports information exchange between a first communication device and a terminal device to obtain information on the frequency band and cell identifier of each cell used to determine a third mapping table, and sends the determined third mapping table to a second communication device. Accordingly, the second communication device establishes an association relationship between the electric adjustment device managed by the first communication device and the cell based on the pre-configured second mapping table and the third mapping table sent by the first communication device, thereby achieving accurate electric adjustment of the tilt angle of the cell and avoiding adjustment errors of the cell tilt angle. At the same time, when the number of electric adjustment devices and cells managed by the first communication device changes, the above scheme can also help obtain the corresponding relationship between the updated electric adjustment device and the cell.

[0024] In one possible implementation, the first information includes a first mapping table, and generating the first information includes: receiving third information from a third communication device, which is used to determine the correspondence between the frequency bands and serial numbers of some or all of the electrically adjustable devices in at least one electrically adjustable device; determining a second mapping table based on the third information; and sending a second request information to the terminal device, where the terminal device is located in an anchor cell among at least two cells; receiving second feedback information from the terminal device, which is a response to the second request information, the second feedback information including the frequency band and cell identifier of each of the at least two cells; determining a third mapping table based on the frequency band and cell identifier of each cell; and determining the first mapping table based on the second mapping table and the third mapping table.

Safety), wireless terminals in smart cities, wireless terminals in smart homes, or terminal devices in communication networks evolved after 5G, etc., are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0111] In the embodiments of the present application, the communication device used to implement the functions of the terminal device can be a terminal device; it can also be a device that can support the terminal device to implement the functions, such as a chip system. The device can be installed in the terminal device or used in conjunction with the terminal device. In the embodiments of the present application, the chip system can be composed of a chip or include a chip and other discrete devices.

[0112] The network device in the embodiment of the present application is a device with wireless transceiver functions, which can be used to communicate with terminal devices. The access network device can be a node in the radio access network (RAN), which can also be called a base station, or a RAN node. It can be an evolved Node B (eNB or eNodeB) in LTE; or a base station in a 5G network such as gNodeB (gNB) or a base station in a public land mobile network (PLMN) evolved after 5G, a broadband network gateway (BNG), an aggregation switch or the 3GPP (the 3GPP) rd For example, the RAN may be configured as a RAN defined by the 3GPP protocol, an open radio access network (O-RAN), or a cloud radio access network (C-RAN).

[0113] The network devices in the embodiments of the present application may also include various forms of base stations, such as: macro base stations, micro base stations (also called small stations), relay stations, transmission points (transmitting and receiving points, TRP), transmitting points (transmitting points, TP), mobile switching centers, and devices to devices (device-to-device, D2D), vehicle-to-everything (vehicle-to-everything, V2X), machine-to-machine (machine-to-machine, M2M) communications.

[0114] The network device in the embodiment of the present application may also include network elements or modules that implement some functions of the base station, for example, one or more of the following: a centralized unit (CU), a distributed unit (DU), or a radio unit (RU). Optionally, the CU can be further separated into a CU-control plane (CP) and a CU-user plane (UP). The functions of the CU and DU can be implemented by different network elements, or simultaneously by the baseband unit (BBU) of the base station.

Optionally, the fronthaul interface protocol between the DU and RU in the O-RAN system can also be considered a special case of the eCPRI interface protocol.

[0115] In the embodiments of the present application, the device for implementing the functions of the network device can be a network device, or a device that can support the network device to implement the functions, such as a chip system. The device can be installed in the network device or used in conjunction with the network device. The chip system in the embodiments of the present application can be composed of a chip, or can include a chip and other discrete devices.

[0116] FIG1 is a schematic diagram of an application scenario 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG1 , application scenario 100 includes a BBU module 110, an RRU module 120, a remote electric tilt (RET) module 130, and an antenna panel 140. BBU module 110 includes at least one BBU, such as BBU#111, BBU#112, and BBU#113. RRU module 120 includes at least one RRU, such as RRU#121, RRU#122, and RRU#123. RET module 130 includes at least two RET devices, such as RET device#131, RET device#132, and RET device#133. Antenna panel 140 includes at least two cells (or the coverage area of ​​antenna panel 140 can be divided into at least two cells, or antenna panel 140 is used for data transmission in at least two cells), such as cell#141, cell#142, and cell#143. The electrical tilt device module 130 is used to control the tilt angle of the antenna panel 140. In other words, the electrical tilt device module 130 controls the tilt angle of each cell corresponding to the antenna module 140, thereby affecting the coverage of each cell. Furthermore, the electrical tilt device module 130 can be internally mounted (as shown in Figure 1) or externally connected to the antenna panel 140, without limitation. The following description uses the example of the electrical tilt device module 130 being internally mounted on the antenna panel 140.

[0117] Optionally, in the method provided in the present application, the BBU may be replaced by a DU, and the RRU may be replaced by an AAU, a pRRU, an RRH or other radio frequency modules.

[0118] In addition, each BBU in the BBU module 110 can support different communication network standards. For example, BBU #111 supports LTE, BBU #112 supports NR, and BBU #113 supports FDD.

[0119] Specifically, the network device (e.g., a base station) includes a BBU module 110 and an RRU module 120, and the antenna device includes a power adjustment device module 130 and an antenna panel 140. Optionally, the network device (e.g., a base station) may also include the power adjustment device module 130 and the antenna panel 140, but this application does not limit this.

[0120] In application scenario 100, the BBU, RRU, RET device, and cell are associated with each other (this association may or may not be known, and is not limited here). For example, BBU #111 corresponds to RRU #121, RRU #121 corresponds to RET device #131, and RET device #131 corresponds to cell #141; BBU #112 corresponds to RRU #122, RRU #122 corresponds to RET device #132, and RET device #132 corresponds to cell #142; BBU #113 corresponds to RRU #123, RRU #123 corresponds to RET device #133, and RET device #133 corresponds to cell #143.

[0121] It should be understood that the association relationship between the BBU, RRU, RET device, and cell shown in the application scenario 110 is a logical association relationship (the logical relationship is indicated by a dotted line), not an actual physical connection relationship.

[0122] Specifically, the RRU module 120 and the antenna panel 140 can be connected via an RF feeder cable, enabling signal transmission and reception. For example, the antenna panel 140 includes an antenna interface standards group (AISG) interface. The anchor RRU of the RRU module 120 (e.g., anchor RRU RRU #122) can establish a connection with the electric tilt device module 130 via the AISG interface of the antenna panel 140, thereby controlling the tilt angle of each cell of the antenna panel 140 through the electric tilt device module 130. RRUs other than the anchor RRU in the RRU module 120 have no connection to the electric tilt device module 130. In other words, a user can only control all RET devices in the electric tilt device module 130 through the anchor RRU of the RRU module 120. Optionally, the RRU module 10 may include one or more anchor RRUs. An anchor RRU can be connected to one or more RET devices, and one RET device can be connected to one anchor RRU.

[0123] However, if the relationship between the anchor RRU, RET device, and cell in application scenario 100 is unknown, it is difficult for the user to adjust the tilt angle of the target cell. For example, if the user wants to adjust the tilt angle of cell A, but cannot determine the corresponding RET device or anchor RRU of cell A, they are unable to adjust the tilt angle of cell A.

[0124] In one possible implementation, the operator's management of the RET equipment of multi-frequency antennas is mainly achieved through manual means. For example, during engineering construction, a mapping table between RET equipment, cell, and anchor RRU is maintained offline. When the tilt angle of the target cell needs to be adjusted, the corresponding RET equipment and anchor RRU can be determined by consulting the mapping table, and then the tilt angle of the target cell can be adjusted. However, the above-mentioned management method of RET equipment for multi-frequency antennas has a limited scope of use and also brings about the problem of adjustment error. For example, the user may not be able to find the RET device corresponding to the target cell, and therefore cannot adjust the tilt angle of the target cell; or the user may find the wrong RET device, so there is an error in adjusting the tilt angle of the target cell, which may affect the network performance.

[0125] In view of the above technical problems, the present application provides a management method and a communication device for an electrical adjustment device, which can enhance the accuracy of the electrical adjustment of the cell tilt angle.

[0126] The following describes the management method and communication device of the electrical adjustment device according to the embodiment of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0127] Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of a communication system 200 applicable to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 2, communication system 200 includes network device 210, network device 220, and terminal device 230. This application does not limit the number of terminal devices and network devices included in communication system 200. It should be understood that Figure 2 is intended for illustrative purposes only and does not limit the scope of protection of this application. Terminal device 230 can be any of the terminal devices listed above, and network device 210 and network device 220 can also be any of the network devices listed above.

[0128] Specifically, network device 210 is a management device for network device 220. For example, network device 220 is a base station, and network device 210 may be an operation and maintenance center (OMC) responsible for managing the base station. Network device 210 may also be a common network management device (or system), or a network management device (or system) provided by an operator or a third party, and this application is not limited thereto.

[0129] Specifically, the network device 220 can manage at least one electrical dispatcher and at least two cells. The terminal device 230 is located in an anchor cell of the at least two cells managed by the network device 220. The anchor cell refers to the cell corresponding to the anchor RRU.

[0130] FIG3 is a schematic diagram of the interactive process of the management method 300 of the electric adjustment device according to an embodiment of the present application. The method process in FIG3 can be executed by the first communication device and the second communication device, or by a module and / or device (for example, a chip or integrated circuit, etc.) with corresponding functions that can be installed on or connected to the first communication device and the second communication device, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto. Among them, the first communication device can be a network device, and the second communication device can be a network device. The following description will take the first communication device and the second communication device as an example. As shown in FIG3, the method 300 includes:

[0131] S310: A first communication device obtains (eg, generates) first information, where the first information is used to determine a first mapping table, where each mapping relationship in the first mapping table indicates a corresponding relationship between an electrical modulation device and one or more cells.

[0132] Specifically, each mapping relationship in the first mapping table indicates a correspondence between a remote control device and one or more cells. Each mapping relationship may indicate a correspondence between an identifier of a remote control device and identifiers of one or more cells. In one possible implementation, the identifier of the remote control device is the serial number of the remote control device, the identifier of the cell is the cell identifier, and the serial number of the remote control device corresponds to the cell identifiers of one or more cells. Therefore, each mapping relationship in the first mapping table may indicate a correspondence between the serial number of the remote control device and the cell identifiers of one or more cells. In this manner, the remote control device can be associated with the cell. For ease of description, the following description mainly uses the correspondence between the remote control device and the cell as an example, but is not limited to the correspondence between the serial number of the remote control device and the cell identifier.

[0133] S320: The first communication device sends first information to the second communication device.

[0134] Accordingly, the second communication device receives the first information from the first communication device.

[0135] Specifically, in step S310, one possible format of the first mapping table is a table. Each row or column in the table format of the first mapping table represents a mapping relationship, where a mapping relationship indicates a correspondence between a remote control device and one or more cells. For example, a mapping relationship indicates a correspondence between an identifier (e.g., a serial number) of a remote control device and identifiers (e.g., a cell identifier) ​​of one or more cells. For a description of the table format of the first mapping table, see Table 1.

[0136] Table 1

[0137]

[0138] As shown in Table 1, each row in Table 1 represents a mapping relationship, and a mapping relationship associates an electric adjustment device with a cell. For example, RET device #1 corresponds to cell #1, RET device #2 corresponds to cell #2, ..., RET device #N corresponds to cell #n, etc. Among them, one electric adjustment device can also correspond to multiple cells, and one cell can also correspond to multiple electric adjustment devices, and this is not limited. Among them, the form of one electric adjustment device corresponding to multiple cells can refer to the description of Table 1, and the form of one cell corresponding to multiple electric adjustment devices can also refer to the description of Table 1, which will not be repeated here. For the convenience of description, the embodiment of the present application is described by taking one electric adjustment device corresponding to one cell as an example, but does not limit the scenario of one electric adjustment device corresponding to multiple cells and one cell corresponding to multiple electric adjustment devices.

[0139] It can be understood that when one electric adjustment device corresponds to one cell, the present application supports controlling the tilt angle of one cell through one electric adjustment device; when one electric adjustment device corresponds to multiple cells, the present application supports controlling the tilt angle of multiple corresponding cells through one electric adjustment device; when one cell corresponds to multiple electric adjustment devices, the present application supports controlling the tilt angle of the cell through multiple corresponding electric adjustment devices.

[0140] In one possible implementation, the first mapping table may be in the form of an index group, where each index in the index group represents a mapping relationship. For example, index {a} represents [cell #1, RET device #1], etc.

[0141] In one possible implementation, the first mapping table may be in the form of a mapping set, where each mapping element in the mapping set represents a mapping relationship pair, for example, {cell #1, RET device #1}, {cell #2, RET device #2}, ..., {cell #n, RET device #n}.

[0142] In summary, the present application does not limit the specific structure of the first mapping table, as long as it can indicate the correspondence between the electrical modulation equipment and the cells managed by the first communication device.

[0143] In step S310, the first information is used to determine the first mapping table. The first information may include the first mapping table, or the first information may include relevant parameters for generating the first mapping table. For example, the relevant parameters may include at least one item from the second mapping table and the third mapping table. A detailed description is provided below.

[0144] In one possible implementation, the first information includes at least one of the following:

[0145] The first mapping table, the second mapping table, or the third mapping table.

[0146] Specifically, each mapping relationship in the second mapping table indicates a correspondence between an electrically modulated device and a frequency band. Each mapping relationship in the third mapping table indicates a correspondence between a cell and a frequency band. The first mapping table is determined based on the second mapping table and the third mapping table.

[0147] Specifically, the correspondence between a remote control device and a frequency band indicated by each mapping relationship in the second mapping table can be: each mapping relationship indicates the correspondence between the serial number of a remote control device and a frequency band. Therefore, each mapping relationship in the second mapping table can indicate the correspondence between the serial number of a remote control device and a frequency band. Similarly, the correspondence between a cell and a frequency band indicated by each mapping relationship in the third mapping table can be: each mapping relationship indicates the correspondence between the cell identifier of a cell and a frequency band. Therefore, each mapping relationship in the third mapping table can indicate the correspondence between the cell identifier of a cell and a frequency band. For ease of description, the following description mainly uses the correspondence between remote control devices and frequency bands, the correspondence between cells and frequency bands, and the correspondence between dynamic devices and cells as examples. These are explained here as a whole and will not be repeated later.

[0148] For a description of the second mapping table, see Table 2. For a description of the third mapping table, see Table 3.

[0149] Table 2

[0150]

[0151] As shown in Table 2, each row represents a mapping relationship, which associates a remotely controlled device with a frequency band. For example, RET device #1 corresponds to frequency band #1, RET device #2 corresponds to frequency band #2, ..., RET device #N corresponds to frequency band #n, and so on. A frequency band can also correspond to multiple remotely controlled devices, without limitation.

[0152] Table 3

[0153]

[0154] As shown in Table 3, each row in Table 3 represents a mapping relationship, which associates a cell with a frequency band. For example, cell #1 corresponds to frequency band #1, cell #2 corresponds to frequency band #2, ..., cell #N corresponds to frequency band #n, and so on.

[0155] It should be noted that, for the specific structural forms of the second mapping table and the third mapping table, reference may be made to the description of the specific structural form of the first mapping table, which will not be repeated here.

[0156] S330. The second communication device determines a first mapping table according to the first information.

[0157] Specifically, when the first information includes a first mapping table, the second communication device determines the correspondence between the electrically variable devices and cells managed by the first communication device based on the first mapping table included in the first information. When the first information includes at least one item from a second mapping table and a third mapping table, the second communication device determines the first mapping table based on at least one item from the second mapping table and the third mapping table and another preconfigured item, thereby determining the correspondence between the electrically variable devices and cells managed by the first communication device.

[0158] In Example #1, when the first information includes the second mapping table, the third mapping table is preconfigured in the second communication device. Accordingly, the second communication device generates the first mapping table based on the second mapping table included in the first information and the preconfigured third mapping table. In Example #2, when the first information includes the third mapping table, the second mapping table is preconfigured in the second communication device. Accordingly, the second communication device generates the first mapping table based on the third mapping table included in the first information and the preconfigured second mapping table. In Example #3, when the first information includes the second mapping table and the third mapping table, the second communication device generates the first mapping table based on the second mapping table and the third mapping table included in the first information.

[0159] It is understandable that each mapping relationship in the second mapping table indicates a correspondence between a remotely-controlled device and a frequency band, and each mapping relationship in the third mapping table indicates a correspondence between a cell and a frequency band. The second communication device uses the frequency band as an intermediate parameter to associate the correspondence between the remotely-controlled device and the cell, thereby generating the first mapping table. For example, if the second mapping table indicates that RET device #1 corresponds to frequency band #1, and the third mapping table indicates that cell #1 corresponds to frequency band #1, it can be determined that RET device #1 corresponds to cell #1.

[0160] By generating first information for determining a first mapping table through a first communication device, this application supports automated acquisition of correspondences between electrically-controlled devices and cells managed by the first communication device, thereby eliminating manual operations by the user and improving the user experience. Furthermore, when the number of electrically-controlled devices and cells managed by the first communication device changes, the above solution can also facilitate acquisition of updated correspondences between electrically-controlled devices and cells.

[0161] Through the above solution, this application supports centralized management of electrical tilt using a "what you see is what you get" approach. For example, when adjusting the tilt angle of a cell, the relationship between the electrical tilt device and the cell can be directly displayed. For example, if an administrator wants to adjust the tilt angle of a cell, they can set a tilt adjustment command for that cell. The first or second communication device can then use the first mapping table to find the electrical tilt device corresponding to that cell, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the corresponding cell using that electrical tilt device.

[0162] In addition, the present application can enhance the accuracy of the electrical adjustment of the cell tilt angle through the above-mentioned solution and avoid adjustment errors.

[0163] In one possible implementation, method 300 may further include:

[0164] S340. The second communication device sends instruction information 1 to the first communication device, which is used to instruct to adjust the tilt angle of the first cell.

[0165] Correspondingly, the first communication device receives the indication information 1 from the second communication device, and adjusts the tilt angle of the first cell according to the indication information 1 .

[0166] S350: The first communication device determines a first electrical modulation device corresponding to the first cell according to the first mapping table.

[0167] S360: The first communication device adjusts the tilt angle of the first cell through the first electrical adjustment device.

[0168] Specifically, the second communication device can determine the first mapping table based on the first information. When the second communication device wants to adjust the tilt angle of the first cell, it obtains the first electrical tilt device corresponding to the first cell from the first mapping table and then sends instruction information 1 to the first communication device to adjust the tilt angle of the first cell. The instruction information 1 may include relevant information about the first electrical tilt device, such as the serial number of the first electrical tilt device. Accordingly, the first communication device adjusts the tilt angle of the first cell using the first electrical tilt device based on the instruction information 1.

[0169] In one possible implementation, the indication information 1 includes a tilt adjustment amount for the first cell and a cell identifier of the first cell. The first communications device determines a first electrical tilt device corresponding to the first cell based on the first mapping table and the cell identifier of the first cell, and adjusts the tilt of the first cell, using the first electrical tilt device, based on the tilt adjustment amount indicated by the second communications device.

[0170] In this way, the present application supports flexible adjustment of the tilt angle of the cell managed by the first communication device, and can ensure the accuracy and convenience of the adjustment of the cell tilt angle.

[0171] In one possible implementation, method 300 may further include:

[0172] S310a: The second communication device sends a request message 1 to the first communication device, which is used to request the first communication device to send first information to the second communication device.

[0173] Accordingly, the first communication device receives the request information 1 from the second communication device, and determines to send the first information to the second communication device according to the request information 1 .

[0174] Optionally, the first communication device may periodically send the first information to the second communication device, so that the second communication device can obtain the latest correspondence between the electrical modulation devices and cells managed by the first communication device at any time.

[0175] It should be understood that step S301a is sent before step S310. In other words, the first communication device sends the first information to the second communication device in response to the request information 1.

[0176] It should be noted that the number of at least one remote control device and at least two cells managed by the first communication device may be known or unknown. When the first communication device is unsure of the number of remote control devices and cells managed by the first communication device, it may query each remote control device and cell to determine the remote control devices and cells associated with the first communication device. Accordingly, the first communication device determines the correspondence between the remote control devices and cells managed by the first communication device through method 300. Furthermore, the first communication device may send the correspondence between the remote control devices and cells associated with the first communication device to the second communication device.

[0177] In a possible implementation, the first mapping table may also be in the form shown in Table 4.

[0178] Table 4

[0179]

[0180] As shown in Table 4, the relationship between the user BBU, user cell, anchor BBU, anchor RRU, and electric adjustment device can be presented in Table 4. In this way, the management of the electric adjustment device can be facilitated. It can be understood that the information such as the user BBU and the user cell in Table 4 can be determined by the first communication device itself, and this information can be sent to the second communication device; or, the above information can be pre-configured in the second communication device, and the second communication device generates a first mapping table in the form of Table 4 based on this pre-configured information and the first information sent by the first communication device. This is not limited in this application. For example, the second communication device traverses the BBUs it manages and obtains relevant information for each BBU, such as the anchor RRU connected to the BBU, the electric adjustment device connected to the anchor RRU, the cell identifier associated with the RET device, etc. Thus, a routing table from the cell to the electric adjustment device as shown in Table 4 is constructed.

[0181] The method 300 will be further described below in conjunction with other drawings.

[0182] Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of the interactive flow of a method 400 for managing electrically tilted equipment according to an embodiment of the present application. The method flow in Figure 4 can be executed by a first communication device, a third communication device, and an antenna device, or by a module and / or device (e.g., a chip or integrated circuit) with corresponding functions that can be installed in or connected to the first communication device, the third communication device, and the antenna device, without limitation in this application. The following description will use the first communication device, the third communication device, and the antenna device as an example. As shown in Figure 4, method 400 includes:

[0183] S410: The first communication device sends instruction information 2 to the third communication device, which is used to instruct the third communication device to send second information to the first communication device.

[0184] Correspondingly, the third communication device receives the indication information 2 from the first communication device, and sends the second information to the first communication device according to the indication information 2.

[0185] Specifically, the first communication device determines the correspondence between the frequency bands and serial numbers of some or all of the at least one electrically tilted device based on the second information.

[0186] Table 5

[0187]

[0188] As shown in Table 5, each row in Table 5 represents the correspondence between the serial number of an electrically tilted device and a frequency band (or, alternatively, each row represents the correspondence between an electrically tilted device and a frequency band, which is not limited here). For example, the electrically tilted device with serial number 000002110130860B2 corresponds to frequency band 1710-1830, the electrically tilted device with serial number 000002110130860B1 corresponds to frequency band 1885-2025, and the electrically tilted device with serial number 000002110130860B3 corresponds to frequency band 1710-1830. One electrically tilted device corresponds to one frequency band, but one frequency band can correspond to multiple electrically tilted devices.

[0189] In one possible implementation, the second information is used to indicate the frequency bands and serial numbers of some or all electrically tilted devices; or the second information is used to indicate the serial numbers of some or all electrically tilted devices. Such information can be used by the first communications device to determine the second mapping table, i.e., such information can help the first communications device determine the correspondence between electrically tilted devices and frequency bands.

[0190] S420: The third communication device sends query information 1 to the antenna device, where the query information 1 is used to instruct the antenna device to send second information to the third communication device.

[0191] Accordingly, the antenna device receives the query information 1 from the third communication device, and determines, based on the query information 1 , that the second information needs to be sent to the third communication device.

[0192] Specifically, information is exchanged between the third communication device and the antenna device. Therefore, the third communication device can send query information 1 to the antenna device to obtain the correspondence between the frequency bands and serial numbers of some or all of the at least one electrically tilted device in the antenna device. The antenna device sends corresponding query signaling to some or all of the at least one electrically tilted device within it. Upon receiving the query signaling from the antenna device, the electrically tilted device can provide feedback to the antenna device regarding the correspondence between the frequency bands and serial numbers of the electrically tilted device.

[0193] In one example, a remote control device within (or connected to) the antenna assembly provides feedback to the antenna assembly regarding the frequency band and serial number corresponding to the remote control device. In another example, a remote control device within the antenna assembly provides feedback to the antenna assembly regarding the serial number corresponding to the remote control device. Furthermore, the antenna assembly aggregates the frequency bands and serial numbers, or serial number information, of some or all of the remote control devices within at least one remote control device and provides this information to a third communication device.

[0194] It is understood that the antenna assembly feeds back the serial number of the electrically tilted device to the third communication apparatus. The third communication apparatus can then establish a correspondence between the serial number of the electrically tilted device and the frequency band (or vice versa) based on a preconfigured correspondence between color ring numbers and frequency bands. Furthermore, the third communication apparatus determines a second mapping table. Furthermore, the third communication apparatus transmits the correspondence between the serial number of the electrically tilted device and the frequency band to the first communication apparatus.

[0195] S430: The antenna device sends response information 1 to the third communication device. The response information 1 includes a correspondence between frequency bands and serial numbers of some or all of the at least one electrically tilting device.

[0196] Accordingly, the third communication device receives the response information 1 from the antenna device.

[0197] It should be understood that the above-mentioned response information 1 is a response to the query information 1. The response information 1 can also be regarded as the second information.

[0198] S440: The third communication device sends second information to the first communication device.

[0199] Accordingly, the first communication device receives the second information from the third communication device.

[0200] S450: The first communication device determines a second mapping table according to the second information.

[0201] Specifically, when the second information includes the serial number and frequency band of the electrically tilted device, the first communication device may determine the second mapping table based on the serial number and frequency band of the electrically tilted device. When the second information also includes the serial number of the electrically tilted device, the first communication device may determine the second mapping table based on the preconfigured correspondence between color ring numbers and frequency bands and the serial number of the electrically tilted device. One serial number of the electrically tilted device corresponds to one color ring number. For more information on the correspondence between color ring numbers and frequency bands, see Table 6.

[0202] Table 6

[0203]

[0204] As shown in Table 6, each color ring number corresponds to a frequency band. For example, color ring number #R1 corresponds to frequency band #703-803, color ring number #R2 corresponds to frequency band #703-803, color ring number #R3 corresponds to frequency band #885-960, color ring number #R4 corresponds to frequency band #885-960, color ring number #B1 corresponds to frequency band #1710-1830, color ring number #B2 corresponds to frequency band #1710-1830, and color ring number #B3 corresponds to frequency band #1885-2025. Each color ring number corresponds to a frequency band range, and a frequency band range can correspond to multiple color ring numbers.

[0205] Because there is a correspondence between the serial number of the electrically tilted device and the color ring number, and a correspondence between the color ring number and the frequency band, the second communication device can determine the second mapping table based on the serial number of the electrically tilted device and the correspondence between the color ring number and the frequency band. Through the above technical solution, the present application can reduce the signaling overhead of the third communication device, which only needs to feedback the serial number of the electrically tilted device to the first communication device.

[0206] In one possible implementation, the first communication device is a BBU, the third communication device is an RRU, and the antenna device is an antenna. Accordingly, the method 400 may include:

[0207] S1. The BBU sends a frequency band query request message to all RRUs managed by the BBU (including anchor RRUs and non-anchor RRUs), which is used to request the RRUs to feedback the correspondence between the electrical modulation equipment and the frequency band.

[0208] In step S1, the BBU can identify the anchor RRU among its connected RRUs, specifically the RRU with an AISG connection. However, the BBU and the anchor RRU are unaware of the number and serial numbers of the RET devices connected to the anchor RRU. Therefore, the BBU sends a frequency band query request to the anchor RRU, triggering the anchor RRU to query the connected RET devices via the AISG connection.

[0209] S2. After receiving the frequency band query request information from the BBU, the anchor RRU sends the frequency band query request information to each RET through the AISG connection line.

[0210] S3. After receiving the frequency band query request information from the anchor RRU, the RET device replies with frequency band query response information to the anchor RRU.

[0211] Accordingly, after receiving the frequency band query response information from the RET device, the anchor RRU determines that it is connected to the RET device. The frequency band query response information carries the frequency band and serial number of the RET device.

[0212] S4. The anchor RRU feeds back the frequency band and serial number of the RET device to the BBU.

[0213] Optionally, the anchor RRU feeds back the frequency band and serial number of the RET device to the BBU one by one, or feeds back the frequency band and serial number of the RET device in batches, which is not limited in this application.

[0214] S5. The BBU determines a second mapping table according to the frequency band and serial number of the RET device sent by the anchor RRU.

[0215] In one possible implementation, the first communication device is a BBU, the third communication device is an RRU, and the antenna device is an antenna. Accordingly, the method 400 may further include:

[0216] Q1. Enter the correspondence between the color ring numbers and frequency bands into the BBU.

[0217] Specifically, this application supports the use of different color rings to identify antenna RF ports of different frequency bands in accordance with antenna specifications, and then each color has a color ring number definition, which will be included in the serial number of the electronically controlled device.

[0218] Q2. The BBU stores the correspondence between the color ring number and the frequency band.

[0219] Q3. The BBU sends a serial number query request message to all RRUs managed by the BBU.

[0220] In step Q3, the BBU knows which of its connected RRUs are anchor RRUs. That is, the BBU knows which RRUs have AISG connections. However, neither the BBU nor the anchor RRU knows which RET devices are connected to the anchor RRU. Therefore, the BBU sends a serial number query request to the anchor RRU, triggering the anchor RRU to query which RET devices are connected to the RRU via the AISG connection.

[0221] Q4. After receiving the serial number query request information, the anchor RRU sends the serial number query request information to each RET device through the AISG connection line.

[0222] Q5. The RET device reports the serial number corresponding to the RET to the anchor RRU.

[0223] Q6. The anchor RRU returns the serial numbers of all RET devices to the BBU.

[0224] Optionally, the anchor RRU feeds back the serial numbers of the RET devices to the BBU one by one, or feeds back the serial numbers of the RET devices in batches, which is not limited in this application.

[0225] Q7. The BBU parses the color ring number from the serial number of the RET device, and then uses the stored correspondence between the color ring number and the frequency band to establish the correspondence between the RET and the frequency band.

[0226] Through the above technical solution, the present application can enable the first communication device to determine the second mapping table through interaction between the first communication device, the third communication device and the antenna device.

[0227] Specifically, the present application supports information exchange between a first communication device and a third communication device to obtain second information used to determine a second mapping table, and sends the determined second mapping table to the second communication device. Accordingly, the second communication device establishes an association relationship between the electrical tilt device managed by the first communication device and the cell based on the pre-configured third mapping table and the second mapping table sent by the first communication device, thereby achieving accurate electrical tilt of the cell and avoiding adjustment errors in the cell tilt. At the same time, when the number of electrical tilt devices and cells managed by the first communication device changes, the above scheme can also help obtain the updated correspondence between the electrical tilt device and the cell.

[0228] FIG5 is a schematic diagram of the interactive flow of a method 500 for managing an electrically regulated device according to an embodiment of the present application. The method flow in FIG5 can be executed by a first communication device and a terminal device, or by a module and / or device (e.g., a chip or integrated circuit, etc.) with corresponding functions that can be installed on or connected to the first communication device and a module and / or device (e.g., a chip or integrated circuit, etc.) with corresponding functions that can be installed on or connected to the terminal device, and this application is not limited thereto. The following description will be made using the first communication device and the terminal device as an example. As shown in FIG5 , the method 500 includes:

[0229] Optionally, in S510, the first communication device sends a request message 2 to the terminal device, requesting the terminal device to report the frequency band and cell identifier of each cell.

[0230] Correspondingly, the terminal device receives the request information 2 from the first communication device, and reports the frequency band and cell identifier of each cell to the first communication device according to the request information 2.

[0231] Specifically, in step S510, the terminal device is located within an anchor cell of at least two cells managed by the first communication device. The terminal device can perform co-coverage measurement on each cell. For example, the first communication device can configure the terminal device in the anchor cell to perform inter-frequency / inter-system cell detection.

[0232] Specifically, after performing inter-frequency / inter-system cell detection in the anchor cell, the terminal device sends the obtained measurement results to the first communication device, wherein the measurement results include the cell identifier and frequency band of each cell.

[0233] S520: The terminal device sends feedback information 1 to the first communication apparatus. The feedback information 1 includes a cell identifier and a frequency band of each cell.

[0234] Correspondingly, the first communication device receives feedback information 1 from the terminal device.

[0235] In one possible implementation, the cell identifier includes a physical cell identifier (PCI) and may also include other identifiers for distinguishing cells, which is not limited in this application.

[0236] S530: The first communication device determines a third mapping table according to the cell identifier and frequency band of each cell.

[0237] In summary, the first communication apparatus determines the third mapping table through interaction with the terminal device.

[0238] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application uses the example of a terminal device performing same coverage learning to describe how the terminal device obtains the cell identifier and frequency band of each cell, but does not limit other possible implementation methods. The specific description of same coverage learning can be found in the existing protocol and will not be repeated here.

[0239] In one possible implementation, the first communication device is a BBU and the second communication device is an OMC. Method 500 may further include:

[0240] W1. The OMC sends a measurement request message to the BBU corresponding to the anchor RRU.

[0241] Specifically, the above-mentioned measurement request information is used to trigger the BBU to instruct the terminal equipment in the anchor cell to perform the same coverage measurement.

[0242] W2. After receiving the measurement request information from the OMC, the BBU configures the terminal device in the anchor cell to perform inter-frequency / inter-system cell detection.

[0243] W3. After the terminal device detects the inter-frequency / inter-system cells in the anchor cell, it sends the measurement results including the cell ID and frequency band of each cell to the BBU.

[0244] Furthermore, the BBU determines a third mapping table according to the measurement result sent by the terminal device.

[0245] Optionally, the BBU may also send the measurement result sent by the terminal device to the OMC, and the OMC performs common sector identification, thereby obtaining the third mapping table.

[0246] Through the above technical solution, the present application can enable the first communication device to determine the third mapping table through the interaction between the first communication device and the terminal equipment.

[0247] Specifically, the present application supports information exchange between a first communication device and a terminal device to obtain information on the frequency band and cell identifier of each cell used to determine a third mapping table, and sends the determined third mapping table to a second communication device. Accordingly, the second communication device establishes an association relationship between the electric adjustment device managed by the first communication device and the cell based on the pre-configured second mapping table and the third mapping table sent by the first communication device, thereby achieving accurate electric adjustment of the tilt angle of the cell and avoiding adjustment errors of the cell tilt angle. At the same time, when the number of electric adjustment devices and cells managed by the first communication device changes, the above scheme can also help obtain the corresponding relationship between the updated electric adjustment device and the cell.

[0248] It should be noted that method 400 and method 500 can be combined with each other to form a new technical solution. For example, the first communication device determines the second mapping table through method 400 and determines the third mapping table through method 500; or the first communication device determines the third mapping table through method 500 and determines the second mapping table through method 400. Accordingly, the first communication device sends at least one item from the second mapping table and the third mapping table to the second communication device, or the first communication device sends the first mapping table generated by the first communication device based on the second mapping table and the third mapping table to the second communication device. This application does not limit this.

[0249] It should also be noted that the second communication device may have co-sector identification, routing table, and route scheduling functions. Specifically, the co-sector identification function refers to the ability to determine which cells are co-sectored based on the co-coverage learning results fed back by the first communication device. The routing table function refers to the ability to establish a correspondence between cells and RET devices based on the co-sector identification results. The route scheduling function utilizes the routing table to support automated management of RET devices. For example, inputting a cell returns the corresponding RET information, adjusting the cell's tilt, and the system automatically finds the corresponding RET device. The first communication device has RET device information management and co-coverage learning functions. The RET device information management function refers to the ability to obtain information about all RET devices, including their frequency bands and serial numbers. The co-coverage learning function is responsible for performing co-coverage processing on the anchor cell corresponding to the anchor RRU and identifying co-coverage inter-frequency neighboring cells based on the co-coverage learning. The antenna device includes an information database for RET devices and provides a query interface for the third communication device to query RET device information.

[0250] The management method of the above-mentioned electrical adjustment device is further described below with reference to FIG6 .

[0251] Figure 6 is an application diagram of the management method of the electric tilt equipment of an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 6, the dotted lines between BBU~RRU~cell~RET device are used to indicate the logical relationship between the four, but cannot be used to indicate the physical connection relationship between the four. Among them, RRU3 is the anchor RRU, which can be connected to RET device 1~RET device 3 through the AISG interface (see the solid line in Figure 6), thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the corresponding cell. Among them, the correspondence between the RET device and the cell can be obtained through the aforementioned method. The second communication device (such as a network management) is connected to BBU1~3 in Figure 6, and the administrator can input parameters or control commands to the second communication device. For example, the administrator inputs a command to adjust the cell tilt angle to the second communication device through the interface operating system, then the second communication device can control RRU3 through BBU3, and thus can control RET1 device 1~RET device 3 through RRU3, thereby accurately adjusting the tilt angle of the corresponding cell. For example, if the administrator (or the second communication device) configures the tilt angle of cell 3 to be adjusted, the second communication device can control RET device 3 through RRU 3 to accurately adjust the tilt angle of cell 3. For another example, if the administrator (or the second communication device) configures the tilt angle of cell 1 to be adjusted, the second communication device can control RET device 1 through RRU 3 to accurately adjust the tilt angle of cell 1.

Whether a particular function is implemented in the form of hardware structures, software modules, or a combination of hardware structures and software modules depends on the specific application and design constraints of the technical solution.
