[0302] The related concepts mentioned in the present application are briefly described as follows.
[0303] 1. Related configuration information of NTN
[0304] NTN configuration (NTN-Config): NTN assistance information, which provides parameters required for a UE to access an NTN access of New Radio (NR), including the following information:
[0305] Epoch time (epochTime): indicates the starting time of the validity of the NTN assistance information;
[0306] NTN uplink synchronization validity duration (ntn-UlSyncValidityDuration): the effective duration configured by the network for the NTN assistance information (i.e., the satellite ephemeris and common TA parameters of the serving cell and / or neighboring cells), which indicates the maximum time duration (calculated from epochTime) during which the UE can apply the assistance information without obtaining new assistance information;
[0307] Ephemeris information (ephemerisInfo): satellite ephemeris information, which can be in the format of position and velocity state vector or in the format of orbital parameters;
[0308] Timing advance information (ta-Info): including common TA and related drift related parameters;
[0309] Other information, such as TA reporting switch, time offset, polarization information of uplink and downlink transmission, etc.
[0310] t-Service: indicates the time information of the cell provided by the NTN system to stop covering the current area. This field is applicable to NTN quasi-Earth fixed service link switching and NTN quasi-Earth fixed and Earth moving system feeder link switching.
[0311] NTN neighbor cell configuration list (ntn-NeighCellConfigList): provides a list of NTN neighbor cells, including their ntn-Config, carrier frequency and PCI;
[0312] Reference location (referenceLocation): the reference location of the serving cell provided by the NTN quasi-Earth fixed system, used for location-based measurement initiation in radio resource control idle state (RRC_IDLE) and radio resource control inactive state (RRC_INACTIVE).
[0313] Moving reference location (movingReferenceLocation): the reference location of the serving cell of the NTN Earth moving system at a certain time reference point. Used in the location-based measurement trigger in RRC_IDLE and RRC_INACTIVE. The time reference of this field is indicated by epochTime in the ntn-Config of the serving cell;
[0314] Distance threshold (distanceThresh): distance threshold from the reference location of the serving cell, used for location-based measurement initiation in RRC_IDLE and RRC_INACTIVE;
[0315] sat switch with reSync: provides target satellite parameters required for performing satellite switch and re-synchronization, including NTN assistance information of target satellite, offset between source and target satellite synchronization signal and PBCH blocks (SSBs) required for possible soft satellite switch, and start time of target satellite providing coverage, under the premise that the cell supports unchanged PCI satellite switch.
[0316] rach-less HO related parameters, including related timing advance (TA) and grant information for UE to perform rach-less HO.
[0317] 2. unchanged PCI satellite switch mechanism for NTN, referred to as unchanged PCI mechanism
[0318] For quasi-earth-fixed system in NTN, one satellite will cover a certain fixed geographical area without changing for a period of time until the satellite leaves. When the current serving satellite (satellite 0) leaves and another satellite (satellite 1) takes over, according to reasonable satellite orbit layout and beam design, the cell (Cell 1) that will provide coverage can provide the same coverage as the current serving cell (Cell 0). By serving through the same ground base station, the same service can be provided for the same area by two different satellites, so that the UE connected to the base station can use the same radio resource configuration, and thus the unchanged PCI mechanism can be used, so that the UE does not need to trigger the switching process to switch the serving cell, but only needs to re-acquire the uplink and downlink synchronization with the target satellite, thereby avoiding the transmission of the switching command in the switching process, saving overhead, and reducing the data transmission interruption delay. The unchanged PCI mechanism includes two scenarios:
[0319] hard satellite switch: the serving satellite is switched at a certain fixed time T, the source satellite serves before time T, and the target satellite serves after time T. The terminal stops transmission with the source cell at time T and starts to perform the downlink synchronization process with the target satellite;
[0320] soft satellite switch: the source satellite and the target satellite can provide service / coverage for the same area for a period of time.
[0321] 3. UE's self-organizing network (SON) record reporting
[0322] The UE's SON record reporting includes:
[0323] CEF report: records information about RRC establishment failure / resume failure on the UE side, and sends a result available indication to the network later, and reports relevant record content after receiving a request from the network side;
[0324] Radio link failure / handover failure report (RLF / HOF report): records information about radio link failure / handover failure on the UE side, and sends a result available indication to the network later, and reports relevant record content after receiving a request from the network side;
[0325] Random access report (RA report): records information about random access failure / success on the UE side, and reports relevant record content after receiving a request from the network side later;
[0326] Successful handover report / successful PSCell (addition / change) report (SHR / SPR): records information about successful handover critical failure / successful PSCell addition or change critical failure on the UE side, and sends a result available indication to the network later, and reports relevant record content after receiving a request from the network side;
[0327] The RLF report includes the following contents:
[0328] Measurement results of the last serving cell of the terminal;
[0329] Measurement results of neighboring cells after the terminal confirms handover failure or radio link failure;
[0330] Terminal location information;
[0331] Terminal failure cell identification information, such as cell global identity (CGI) / PCI+frequency point;
[0332] Terminal re-establishment cell identification information;
[0333] UE reporting timer: the duration of the last time the terminal confirms receiving a handover initiation message to connection failure;
[0334] Connection failure reason, handover failure or radio link failure;
[0335] A cell radio network temporary identifier (C-RNTI) used when the terminal connection fails;
[0336] A radio link failure sub-reason, T310 timeout or random access problem or radio link control (RLC) layer reaches maximum retransmission or beam failure recovery failure (BFRF);
[0337] A time duration experienced by the terminal after confirming the connection failure to the terminal reporting the RLF report;
[0338] A tracking area code (TAC) of the connection failure cell;
[0339] Bluetooth (BT) related record results;
[0340] A wireless local area network (WLAN).
[0341] Under the unchanged PCI satellite switching mechanism, a new satellite replaces an old satellite, but due to the differences between satellites, such as position, height, parameter configuration, and the like, the new and old satellites cannot be completely identical in coverage. If there is a coverage drop in some positions, it may cause satellite switching failure or RLF. It is also possible that the network configuration of the NTN parameter is not appropriate, causing the UE to fail to successfully access the target satellite. It is necessary to record relevant failure information to identify the problem by the network and optimize the network to solve it. The embodiments of the present application provide a method for identifying and solving the above problems.
[0342] The embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The information transmission method, device, terminal and network equipment provided by the embodiments of the present application can be applied to a wireless communication system. The wireless communication system can be a system using the fifth generation (5th Generation, 5G) mobile communication technology (hereinafter referred to as 5G system), and the skilled in the art can understand that the 5G NR system is only an example and is not limited.
[0343] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a structure diagram of a network system to which the embodiments of the present application can be applied, such as Figure 1As shown, it includes a user terminal 11 and a base station 12, wherein the user terminal 11 can be a user equipment (UE), for example, a terminal-side device such as a mobile phone, a tablet personal computer, a laptop computer, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a mobile Internet device (MID), or a wearable device, and it needs to be noted that the specific type of the user terminal 11 is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. The base station 12 can be a base station of 5G and later versions (for example, gNB, 5G NR NB), or a base station in other communication systems, or a node B, and it needs to be noted that the 5G base station is taken as an example in the embodiments of the present application, but the specific type of the base station 12 is not limited.
[0344] The embodiments of the present application provide an information transmission method and device, a terminal and a network device, to avoid the problem of terminal access failure in satellite transformation.
[0345] The method and the device are based on the same application concept, and since the principles of solving problems are similar, the implementation of the device and the method can be referred to each other, and the repeated parts will not be described herein.
[0346] As shown in the Figure 2 The embodiments of the present application provide an information transmission method, which is executed by a terminal and includes the following steps.
[0347] In step S201, first information is recorded, and the first information includes at least one of information related to a radio link failure (RLF) in satellite transformation and information related to potential problems in a successful satellite transformation process.
[0348] In step S202, the first information is sent to a network device, and the first information is used to assist satellite-related mobile robustness optimization.
[0349] It needs to be noted that, by recording at least one of the information related to the RLF in satellite transformation and the information related to the potential problems in the successful satellite transformation process, and sending the recorded information to the network device, the network side can be assisted to perform satellite-related mobile robustness optimization, the success rate of satellite transformation can be improved, and the communication reliability can be ensured.
[0350] It should be noted that the terminal sending the first information to the network device means that the terminal sends the first information to the corresponding network device that needs to obtain the first information through the satellite, which can be an access network device corresponding to a source satellite of the terminal access. In this case, the terminal needs to first send the first information to the access network device corresponding to the last accessed satellite, and then forward it to the access network device corresponding to the source satellite. Alternatively, when the access network device corresponding to the last accessed satellite and the access network device corresponding to the source satellite are the same device, the forwarding process is not required.
[0351] For example, the network side can perform satellite coverage optimization and / or satellite transformation optimization based on the first information to improve the success rate of satellite transformation.
[0352] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application can be applied to satellite transformation without changing the physical cell identifier (unchanged PCI) or satellite transformation with changed physical cell identifier (changed PCI).
[0353] It should be noted that the RLF of satellite transformation can include the following scenarios: hard satellite transformation failure, soft satellite transformation failure, and satellite transformation failure soon after success (including hard satellite transformation failure soon after success and soft satellite transformation failure soon after success).
[0354] It should be noted that the potential problem in the successful satellite transformation process can be understood as a satellite transformation that is successful but succeeds in a critical failure case. This case can also be referred to as a critical successful satellite transformation.
[0355] The different cases are described in detail as follows.
[0356] I. RLF of satellite transformation
[0357] Alternatively, in an implementation, the information related to the RLF of satellite transformation includes at least one of the following:
[0358] A101, the type of action triggered most recently before the RLF occurs, including at least one of the following: satellite transformation, service link transformation, feeder link transformation, and inter-cell handover;
[0359] It should be noted that if it is satellite transformation or service link transformation, it is further indicated as hard satellite transformation or soft satellite transformation. The failure cause or connection failure type in the RLF report can be used for recording, or new information can be added for recording.
[0360] A102、time length information from the last time satellite switching or inter-cell handover is triggered to the time when the RLF occurs;
[0361] It should be noted that the information is used to record the time length from triggering satellite switching or inter-cell handover to RLF.
[0362] It should be noted that the time length information can assist the network side to determine whether the RLF is related to the last action of triggering satellite switching or inter-cell handover, and if so, the type of the last action triggered before the RLF is optimized, for example, the last action is satellite switching, inter-cell handover, etc.
[0363] A103、time length information from the time when the RLF occurs to the time when the network device acquires the first information;
[0364] It should be noted that the time length information can assist the network side to acquire the saved context information.
[0365] A104、time length information from the time when the RLF occurs to the time when the terminal re-accesses the network;
[0366] It should be noted that the time length information can assist the network side to determine whether the re-accessed network cell can be used as a target cell for mobile candidates; if the time is too long, it indicates that the re-accessed network has little relationship with the RLF, and cannot be used as a candidate target cell after failure.
[0367] A105、in the case of satisfying a first condition, information of a target object accessed or attempted to be accessed, the target object including a satellite and / or a cell;
[0368] For example, the satellite information of the accessed or attempted to be accessed satellite and / or the cell information of the cell are recorded here. The satellite information can be satellite identification or ephemeris information; the cell information can be cell identification information, for example.
[0369] Optionally, the first condition includes at least one of the following:
[0370] A1051、before triggering satellite switching;
[0371] A1052、when satellite switching;
[0372] A1053、before the last time satellite switching or inter-cell handover is triggered before the RLF occurs;
[0373] A1054、after the last time satellite switching or inter-cell handover is triggered before the RLF occurs;
[0374] A1055、after the RLF occurs, and in the process of triggering radio resource control (RRC) connection re-establishment;
[0375] A1056, after the RLF occurs;
[0376] A1057, after the RLF occurs and after the RRC connection reestablishment is triggered and fails.
[0377] It should be noted that the terminal records the information of the target object accessed or attempted to be accessed in different stages of satellite transformation, which can assist the network side to optimize the target cell of satellite transformation, that is, the satellite transformation fails in the process of transforming from the source satellite to the target satellite, and needs to be optimized for the satellite transformation. Satellite transformation failure may be reflected in RLF failure, and the information of the target object accessed by the terminal before and after the RLF failure may need to be recorded. The target object accessed before the RLF occurs may cause the RLF to occur due to unreasonable parameter configuration, and the target object accessed by the terminal in the cell selection process after the RLF occurs may be the current optimal target cell, which can be used as the target cell that should be selected in satellite transformation or inter-cell handover. If the RRC connection reestablishment process is triggered after the RLF occurs, the cell accessed in the RRC connection reestablishment process can also be used as the optimal candidate target cell.
[0378] A106, user identification information corresponding to the cell accessed or attempted to be accessed in the case of satisfying the first condition;
[0379] It should be noted that recording the user identification information corresponding to the cell facilitates the network to identify the specific user and find the user context information maintained by the network.
[0380] A107, location information of the terminal when the satellite transformation is triggered;
[0381] A108, location information of the terminal when the RLF occurs;
[0382] A109, location information of the terminal when the satellite transformation or inter-cell handover is triggered for the last time before the RLF occurs;
[0383] It should be noted that through A107-A109, the terminal records the location information in different stages of satellite transformation, which can assist the network side to judge the specific location where the failure occurs and optimize the mobility of the terminal at a fixed location.
[0384] A110, first measurement result information corresponding to the RLF;
[0385] Optionally, in an implementation, the first measurement result information includes at least one of the following:
[0386] A1101, measurement result of the target object accessed by the terminal before the satellite transformation is triggered;
[0387] A1102, triggering measurement results of neighbor cells of a target object accessed by the terminal before satellite transformation;
[0388] A1103, triggering measurement results of a target object accessed by the terminal after satellite transformation;
[0389] Optionally, since the satellite transformation cell identifier under unchanged PCI can not be changed, the PCI and the frequency point are also not changed, but the terminal can receive beams of source satellites and target satellites which can be different, thus when recording the measurement results corresponding to the source satellites and the target satellites, the measurement results can be recorded respectively, and the difference between the measurement results is reflected by different beams.
[0390] A1104, triggering measurement results of neighbor cells of a target object accessed by the terminal after satellite transformation;
[0391] A1105, triggering measurement results of a target object accessed by the terminal when RLF occurs;
[0392] A1106, triggering measurement results of neighbor cells of a target object accessed by the terminal when RLF occurs;
[0393] A1107, triggering measurement results of a target object accessed by the terminal before the last satellite transformation or inter-cell handover before RLF occurs;
[0394] A1108, triggering measurement results of neighbor cells of a target object accessed by the terminal before the last satellite transformation or inter-cell handover before RLF occurs;
[0395] A1109, triggering measurement results of a target object accessed by the terminal after the last satellite transformation or inter-cell handover before RLF occurs;
[0396] A1110, triggering measurement results of neighbor cells of a target object accessed by the terminal after the last satellite transformation or inter-cell handover before RLF occurs.
[0397] It should be noted that through the reporting of the first measurement results, the network side can be assisted to determine whether the coverage of the target satellite or cell accessed by the terminal is good enough to continue to serve the terminal; if the coverage is not good enough, other target satellites can be selected to continue to serve, or the coverage of the target satellite can be enhanced for optimization.
[0398] Optionally, in an implementation, the information related to the RLF of the satellite transformation further includes:
[0399] A length of time during which the terminal accesses the source satellite and the target satellite together during the satellite transformation.
[0400] Optionally, the time length can be represented by the difference between t-Service-r17 indicating the current cell service end time point in SIB19 and t-ServiceStart-r18 indicating the start time point in the target satellite SatSwitchWithReSync structure.
[0401] It should be noted that this case is applicable to the scenario of soft satellite switching, that is, in the scenario of soft satellite switching, in addition to recording any one of the above A101-A110 information, the terminal can also record the time length of the common coverage of the source satellite and the target satellite during the satellite switching process to assist the network side in optimizing the satellite coverage.
[0402] Optionally, for satellite switching RLF, it can also be caused by improper NTN configuration. The terminal can record the NTN configuration when RLF fails or is critical to fail, so as to optimize the NTN configuration of the network.
[0403] For example, the network configures the ssb-TimeOffset parameter for the terminal through SIB19, which indicates the time interval of the uplink time synchronization SSB of the source satellite and the target satellite. The terminal calculates the measurement time of the target satellite SSB based on the parameter and other parameters in the NTN configuration. If the ssb-TimeOffset parameter is not configured accurately, it will cause the terminal to fail to obtain the uplink synchronization of the target satellite.
[0404] The network configured ssb-TimeOffset parameter is calculated through the propagationDelayDifference parameter in the UEAssistanceInformation message reported by the terminal, which represents the service link propagation delay difference of the serving cell and the neighbor cell. This parameter includes the difference of at most 4 target cells. The terminal reports this value according to the network configuration information propDelayDiffReportConfig. Optionally, the specific format of propDelayDiffReportConfig is as follows:
[0405]
[0406] The network configures propDelayDiffReportConfig to the terminal, wherein threshPropDelayDiff represents a service cell and a neighbor cell service link propagation delay difference threshold, that is, a threshold for triggering reporting, and neighCellInfoList represents up to maxCellNTN (the value is 4) neighbor cells that can be configured. After the terminal receives the configuration, the terminal reports the service cell and the neighbor cell service link propagation delay difference through propagationDelayDifference in the UEAssistanceInformation message when the condition is met, and the network calculates the ssb-TimeOffset parameter and configures the terminal through SIB19.
[0407] It can be seen from the above analysis that if the ssb-TimeOffset parameter is not accurately configured, the terminal cannot obtain uplink synchronization of the target satellite. To correct the ssb-TimeOffset parameter, the parameters involved in the above calculation need to be recorded to find the root cause of the problem.
[0408] Optionally, in an implementation manner of the present application, the first information further includes at least one of the following:
[0409] A21, network-configured service cell and neighbor cell service link propagation delay difference configuration information (propDelayDiffReportConfig);
[0410] Optionally, the service cell and neighbor cell service link propagation delay difference configuration information includes at least one of the following:
[0411] A211, a service cell and a neighbor cell service link propagation delay difference threshold (threshPropDelayDiff);
[0412] A212, a neighbor cell information list (neighCellInfoList);
[0413] Optionally, the neighbor cell information list includes specific configured neighbor cell information.
[0414] A22, a service cell and a neighbor cell service link propagation delay difference (propagationDelayDifference) in terminal assistance information (UEAssistanceInformation);
[0415] A23, a time offset (ssb-TimeOffset) between uplink synchronization signals SSBs of a source satellite and a target satellite.
[0416] It should be noted that by recording at least one of A21-A23, it can be determined whether the network analysis related parameter configuration is accurate, for example, according to the statistical result, the success rate of the terminal in the same position under which configuration is high, and the success rate of which configuration is low, so that more reasonable parameters are configured next time, and the success rate is improved.
[0417] It should be noted that A21-A23 can be recorded in the corresponding report together with any one of A101-A110, or a new report record can be added.
[0418] The different implementation scenarios in this case are illustrated as follows.
[0419] Application Case 1: Failure under hard satellite transformation of unchanged PCI
[0420] After the unchanged PCI satellite transformation is triggered, the terminal tries to access the new satellite. If the new satellite cannot provide effective coverage, the terminal may have RLF. According to the existing implementation, the terminal records the RLF report, which includes the cell identifier of the failed cell, the failure reason RLF, and time information. The network cannot optimize the hard satellite transformation according to the above content after obtaining the RLF report. The RLF report needs to be enhanced to record the failure information under the hard satellite transformation, or other SON reports are used, or a new report is recorded to record the failure information of the hard satellite transformation.
[0421] RLF occurs after the unchanged PCI satellite transformation is triggered. The information to be recorded includes but is not limited to the following content:
[0422] S101, the action type triggered last time before RLF, including but not limited to: satellite transformation, service link transformation, feeder link transformation, and inter-cell handover;
[0423] Optionally, if it is satellite transformation or service link transformation, optionally, further indicating hard satellite transformation or soft satellite transformation. The failure reason or connection failure type in the RLF report can be recorded, or new information can be recorded.
[0424] S102, time length information from the last time satellite transformation or inter-cell handover is triggered before the RLF occurs to the RLF occurs;
[0425] S103, the satellite transformation trigger before, satellite transformation, the last time before the RLF occurs triggering satellite transformation or inter-cell handover, the last time before the RLF occurs triggering satellite transformation or inter-cell handover, after the RLF occurs, and triggering the radio resource control (RRC) connection re-establishment process after the RLF occurs, and / or after the RLF occurs and after triggering the RRC connection re-establishment failure, the satellite information corresponding to the satellite accessed or attempted to access by the terminal, can be satellite identification or ephemeris information; because the satellite transformation, the cell may not change, the optimization is the coverage of the satellite, and the configuration information of the cell is not involved.
[0426] S104, the location information of the terminal when triggering satellite transformation and / or the location information of the terminal when the RLF occurs;
[0427] S105, the cell identification information of the cell accessed or attempted to access by the terminal before and after the satellite transformation trigger, before the satellite transformation trigger, during the satellite transformation, the last time before the RLF occurs triggering satellite transformation or inter-cell handover, the last time before the RLF occurs triggering satellite transformation or inter-cell handover, after the RLF occurs, and triggering the radio resource control (RRC) connection re-establishment process after the RLF occurs, and / or after the RLF occurs and after triggering the RRC connection re-establishment failure, the cell identification information of the cell accessed or attempted to access by the terminal; before and after the satellite transformation, the cell accessed by the terminal may also change, so the cell accessed before the satellite transformation trigger and the cell attempted to access after the satellite transformation trigger need to be recorded.
[0428] S106, the user identification information corresponding to the cell accessed or attempted to access by the terminal before and after the satellite transformation trigger, before the satellite transformation trigger, during the satellite transformation, the last time before the RLF occurs triggering satellite transformation or inter-cell handover, the last time before the RLF occurs triggering satellite transformation or inter-cell handover, after the RLF occurs, and triggering the radio resource control (RRC) connection re-establishment process after the RLF occurs, and / or after the RLF occurs and after triggering the RRC connection re-establishment failure, the user identification information corresponding to the cell accessed or attempted to access by the terminal;
[0429] Also as above, on the basis of recording the cell identification information, further, the identification of the user in the cell is recorded. Facilitate the network to identify specific users, find the user context information maintained by the network.
[0430] S107, the time length information from the RLF occurrence to the network device obtaining the recorded information;
[0431] The time length information is used to assist the network in finding the user context information.
[0432] S108, the time length information from the RLF occurrence to the terminal re-accessing the network;
[0433] S109, the first measurement result information corresponding to the RLF, including but not limited to the following contents:
[0434] The measurement result of the target object before the terminal accesses after triggering the satellite transformation;
[0435] The measurement result of the neighboring cell of the target object before the terminal accesses after triggering the satellite transformation;
[0436] The measurement result of the target object after the terminal attempts to access after triggering the satellite transformation;
[0437] The measurement result of the neighboring cell of the target object after the terminal attempts to access after triggering the satellite transformation;
[0438] The measurement result of the target object accessed by the terminal when the RLF occurs;

[0440] The measurement result of the target object accessed by the terminal before the last satellite transformation or inter-cell handover before the RLF occurs;
[0441] The measurement result of the neighboring cell of the target object accessed by the terminal before the last satellite transformation or inter-cell handover before the RLF occurs;

[0443] The measurement result of the neighboring cell of the target object accessed by the terminal after the last satellite transformation or inter-cell handover before the RLF occurs.
[0444] After the network device receives the above recorded information, it can be known according to the time length information from the last triggering of the satellite transformation to the occurrence of the RLF whether the failure is related to the last triggering of the satellite transformation or the handover; if it is related, the satellite transformation or the handover will be optimized, and whether the coverage of the satellite or the cell attempted to be accessed can be well continued to serve the terminal is judged according to the measurement result; if the coverage is not good, other target satellites can be selected to continue to serve, or the coverage of the target satellite is enhanced, and the like.
[0445] Application case two, soft satellite transformation failure of unchanged PCI
[0446] After the unchanged PCI soft satellite switch is triggered, the terminal tries to access the new satellite. If the new satellite cannot provide effective coverage, the terminal can not access the new target satellite. After the old original satellite cannot continue to provide services, the terminal will have RLF, and the terminal records the RLF report, which includes the cell identifier where the failure occurs, the failure reason, and the time information.
[0447] After the network obtains the RLF report, the optimization of the unchanged PCI soft satellite switch cannot be performed according to the above content. The RLF report needs to be enhanced to record the failure information under the soft satellite switch, or other SON reports are used, or new reports are added to record the failure information of the unchanged PCI soft satellite switch.
[0448] The information to be recorded and the application case are the same, and the only difference is that the terminal can optionally record the difference between t-Service-r17 in SIB19, which indicates the end time point of the current cell service, and t-ServiceStart-r18 in the target satellite SatSwitchWithReSync structure, which indicates the start time point, to represent the length of time during which the source satellite and the target satellite jointly cover.
[0449] Application case three, unchanged PCI satellite switch succeeds and then fails soon
[0450] After the unchanged PCI soft satellite switch or hard satellite switch is triggered, the terminal successfully accesses the new satellite or cell, but RLF occurs soon. The terminal records the RLF report, which includes the cell identifier where the failure occurs, the failure reason, and the time information.
[0451] After the network obtains the RLF report, the optimization of the unchanged PCI satellite switch cannot be performed according to the above content. The RLF report needs to be enhanced to record the failure information under the satellite switch, or other SON reports are used, or new reports are added to record the failure information of the unchanged PCI satellite switch.
[0452] The information to be recorded includes but is not limited to the following content:

[0461] S207, time length information from the RLF occurs to the network device obtaining the recorded information;
[0462] The time length is used to assist the network in finding the user context information.

[0469] After the network device receives the above recorded information, the length of time from a last satellite switching or handover triggering to satellite switching failure or RLF occurrence can be known, and whether the failure is related to the last satellite switching or handover triggering can be known. If related, the satellite switching or handover can be optimized, and whether the coverage of a satellite or cell accessed by a terminal can be good enough to continue to serve the terminal can be determined according to the measurement result. If the coverage is not good enough, other target satellites can be selected to continue to serve, or the coverage of the target satellite can be enhanced.
[0470] Optionally, the last time mentioned in the embodiments of the present application can also be understood as the last time or the previous time.
[0471] II. Potential problems in a successful satellite switching process

[0473] B11, a switching type corresponding to the successful satellite switching, the switching type including at least one of the following: satellite switching, service link switching, feeder link switching, inter-cell handover;
[0474] It should be noted that if the satellite switching or the service link switching is a hard satellite switching or a soft satellite switching.
[0475] B12, information of a target object accessed by a terminal before the successful satellite switching, the target object including a satellite and / or a cell;
[0476] For example, satellite information of accessed satellites and / or cell information of accessed cells are recorded. The satellite information can be satellite identification or ephemeris information; the cell information can be cell identification information, for example.
[0477] B13, information of a target object accessed by the terminal after successful satellite switching;
[0478] It should be noted that the terminal records satellite information and cell identification information accessed before and / or after satellite switching, which can assist the network side in judging the scenario of satellite switching, that is, there is a potential problem in the mobility process from the source satellite to the target satellite, and actions need to be taken for the source satellite to the target satellite, for example: optimization for satellite switching.
[0479] B14, user identification information corresponding to a cell accessed by the terminal before successful satellite switching;
[0480] B15, user identification information corresponding to a cell accessed by the terminal after successful satellite switching;
[0481] It should be noted that recording user identification information corresponding to a cell facilitates the network in identifying a specific user and finding user context information maintained by the network.
[0482] B16, location information of the terminal at the time of successful satellite switching;
[0483] It should be noted that by recording the location information, the network side can be assisted in judging the specific location where the potential problem occurs, and the location can be analyzed and optimized.
[0484] B17, time length information from the occurrence of successful satellite switching to the network device obtaining the first information;
[0485] It should be noted that the time length information can assist the network side in finding terminal context information.
[0486] B18, cause of the potential problem in the process of successful satellite switching;
[0487] Optionally, the cause includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: T310 cause, critical stop service of the source satellite or the source cell, and long time to obtain synchronization of the target satellite or the target cell.
[0488] B19, second measurement result information corresponding to successful satellite switching;
[0489] Optionally, the second measurement result information includes at least one of the following:
[0490] B191, measurement result of a target object accessed by the terminal before successful satellite switching;
[0491] B192, measurement result of a neighbor cell of the target object accessed by the terminal after successful satellite switching;
[0492] B193, measurement result of the target object accessed by the terminal after successful satellite switching;
[0493] B194, measurement result of a neighbor cell of the target object accessed by the terminal after successful satellite switching.
[0494] It should be noted that, through the reporting of the second measurement result, the network side can be assisted to determine whether the coverage of the terminal attempting to access the satellite or the cell is good enough to continue to serve the terminal; if the coverage is not good enough, other target satellites can be selected to continue to serve, or the coverage of the target satellite can be enhanced for optimization.
[0495] Optionally, in an implementation, information related to potential problems in the successful satellite switching process is recorded, including:
[0496] In the case of meeting the second condition, the information related to potential problems in the successful satellite switching process is recorded;
[0497] The second condition includes at least one of the following:
[0498] C11, when synchronization of the target satellite or the target cell is acquired, a ratio of a current value of the target timer to a configuration value is greater than or equal to a ratio threshold of the target timer;
[0499] Optionally, the target timer in the embodiment of the application can be a T310 timer.
[0500] In the hard satellite switching or soft satellite switching scenario, RLF will be triggered when the T310 timer times out (that is, when the current value of the T310 timer increases to the T310 configuration value). Whether it is a critical success can be determined according to the ratio of the current value of the T310 timer to the T310 configuration value when the synchronization of the target satellite or the target cell is successfully acquired. In order to complete the above determination, the network device needs to configure the ratio threshold of the T310 to the terminal. When the ratio of the current value of the T310 timer to the T310 configuration value is greater than (corresponding to the mathematical symbol >) or greater than or equal to (corresponding to the mathematical symbol ≥) the T310 ratio threshold when the synchronization of the target satellite or the target cell is successfully acquired, it indicates a critical success.
[0501] C12, when synchronization of the target satellite or the target cell is acquired, an absolute value of a difference between a current value of the target timer and a configuration value is less than or equal to a difference threshold of the target timer;
[0502] In the hard satellite handover or soft satellite handover scenario, RLF is triggered due to T310 timer timeout (i.e. when the current value of T310 timer increases to the configured value of T310). The critical success can be determined according to whether the absolute value of the difference between the current value of T310 timer and the configured value of T310 is critical or not when the terminal successfully acquires synchronization with the target satellite or cell. To determine the above, the network configures a T310 difference threshold to the terminal. When the absolute value of the difference between the current value of T310 timer and the configured value of T310 is less than (corresponding to mathematical symbol <) or greater than or equal to (corresponding to mathematical symbol ≤) the T310 difference threshold, it means critical success.
[0503] C13, the difference between the time point of the stop service of the source satellite or source cell and the time point of the successful access of the terminal is less than or equal to a critical stop service time length;
[0504] It should be noted that in the soft satellite handover scenario, the critical success can also be determined by judging whether the source satellite or source cell has approached the stop service time point when the terminal acquires synchronization with the target satellite or target cell. The meaning is that the source satellite or source cell has approached the stop service, and the terminal has completed the synchronization acquisition with the target satellite or target cell. To determine the above meaning, the critical stop service time length can be configured. If (t-Service (the parameter indicating the stop service time point) of the source cell - current time) is less than or less than or equal to the configured critical stop service time length, it means critical success. Of course, other configurations can also be used to determine the occurrence of the above event, and the specific implementation mode is not limited.
[0505] C14, the time length from the satellite handover trigger to the successful synchronization acquisition of the terminal with the target satellite or target cell is greater than or equal to a critical access time length;
[0506] It should be noted that the time length from the satellite handover trigger to the successful synchronization acquisition of the terminal with the target satellite or target cell can also be used to determine the critical success. The critical access time length can be configured. If the time length from the satellite handover trigger to the successful synchronization acquisition of the terminal with the target satellite or cell is greater than or greater than or equal to the configured critical access time length, it means critical success. Of course, other configurations can also be used to determine that the time length of the synchronization acquisition of the terminal with the target satellite or cell is too long, and the specific implementation mode is not limited.
[0507] Optionally, in an implementation mode, the method further comprises:
[0508] receiving the configuration information sent by the network device;
[0509] The configuration information comprises at least one of the following:
[0510] a ratio threshold of the target timer;
[0511] a difference threshold of the target timer;
[0512] a critical out-of-service time length;
[0513] a critical access time length.
[0514] Optionally, the configuration information can be sent to the terminal through SIB19 or dedicated signaling of the terminal.
[0515] The following illustrates this case as follows.
[0516] Application Case Four: Satellite Transformation Optimization of Critical Successful unchanged PCI
[0517] The critical successful unchanged PCI satellite transformation refers to that the satellite transformation is successful, but there is a critical success situation during the access to the target satellite or cell. In this scenario, the network side needs to first configure configuration information for the terminal to judge whether the critical success occurs, which includes but is not limited to:
[0518] a T310 ratio threshold;
[0519] a T310 difference threshold;
[0520] a critical out-of-service time length, i.e., the judgment information of the critical out-of-service time point of the source satellite or source cell when the terminal acquires synchronization of the target satellite or cell;
[0521] a critical access time length, i.e., the time length information of the successful acquisition of synchronization of the target satellite or target cell.
[0522] The above configuration information can be sent to the terminal through SIB19 or dedicated signaling of the terminal.
[0523] When the terminal successfully acquires synchronization of the target satellite or target cell, it is judged according to the above configuration information whether the critical success occurs. When any condition is met, it is judged that the critical success occurs. The critical success information is recorded, which can be recorded in the SHR report or other SON report or newly added report.
[0524] The information to be recorded includes but is not limited to the following contents:
[0525] S301, the transformation type corresponding to the successful satellite transformation, including but not limited to: satellite transformation, service link transformation, feeder link transformation, and inter-cell handover;
[0526] If it is satellite transformation or service link transformation, optionally, it is further indicated that it is hard satellite transformation or soft satellite transformation.
[0527] S302, the satellite information accessed by the terminal before the successful satellite switching and / or the satellite information accessed by the terminal after the successful satellite switching can be satellite identification or ephemeris information; because the satellite switching, the cell can not change, the satellite coverage needs to be optimized, and the cell configuration information is not involved.
[0528] S303, the location information of the terminal when the successful satellite switching occurs;
[0529] S304, the cell identification information of the cell accessed before the successful satellite switching or inter-cell handover and the cell accessed after the successful satellite switching or inter-cell handover;
[0530] S305, the user identification information corresponding to the cell accessed before the successful satellite switching or inter-cell handover and the cell accessed after the successful satellite switching or inter-cell handover;
[0531] That is, on the basis of recording the cell identification information in S304, further, the identification of the user in the cell is recorded. It is convenient for the network to identify the specific user and find the user context information kept by the network.
[0532] S306, the time length information of the time when the successful satellite switching occurs to the network device acquiring the recorded information;
[0533] The time length information is used to assist the network to find the user context information.
[0534] S307, the reason for the critical successful satellite switching;
[0535] Specifically, but not limited to: T310 reason, source satellite or source cell critical stop service, acquire target satellite or target cell synchronization time is long, etc.
[0536] S308, the second measurement result information, including but not limited to the following contents:
[0537] The measurement result of the satellite and / or cell accessed by the terminal before the successful satellite switching;
[0538] The measurement result of the neighbor cell of the satellite and / or cell accessed by the terminal before the successful satellite switching;
[0539] The measurement result of the satellite and / or cell accessed by the terminal after the successful satellite switching;
[0540] The measurement result of the neighbor cell of the satellite and / or cell accessed by the terminal after the successful satellite switching.
[0541] After the network device receives the recorded information, it can determine whether the terminal can continue to be served well according to the measurement result, whether the coverage of the satellite or the cell is good, and whether the terminal can continue to be served well. If the coverage is not good, other target satellites can be selected to continue to serve, or the coverage of the target satellite can be enhanced, and the like.
[0542] It should be noted that, in the conventional handover, a synchronous RRC reconfiguration message is sent to the terminal, but in the unchanged PCI satellite transformation process, the RRC reconfiguration message is no longer sent to the terminal. The information recorded in the conventional SON report is mostly based on the handover process, that is, the synchronous RRC reconfiguration message, and is no longer applicable to the unchanged PCI satellite transformation process, and the satellite transformation scenario is also different from the conventional handover. In order to complete the optimization of the satellite transformation, at least one embodiment of the present application enhances the recorded information in the RLF and / or critical successful satellite transformation scenarios of the satellite transformation, assists the network side to complete the network optimization of the satellite transformation, and improves the access success rate.
