[0012] Exemplary embodiment 1 Hereinafter, the present embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a base station according to the first exemplary embodiment. The base station 10 can operate according to any one of a variety of possible cellular communication standards. The base station 10 can be an integrated base station including a core. Although the base station 10 will be described as an integrated base station including a core, a non-integrated base station can achieve the same processing. The base station 10 can be used together with other base stations. Wherever multiple base stations are installed, each base station automatically recognizes its installed location, and autonomously adjusts the cell by transmitting and sharing the location information of each base station with each other.

[0013] The base station 10 includes a processor, a memory, a communication interface, and the like. As shown in FIG. 1, the base station 10 includes a location information acquisition unit 11, a state information sharing unit 12, a determination unit 13, a calculation unit 14, and a cell adjustment unit 15. The location information acquisition unit 11 acquires location information of the base station. The state information sharing unit 12 directly or indirectly shares the location information of the base station and state information including the transmission power amount and radio wave directivity of the base station with one or more adjacent base stations, and acquires the location information of the adjacent base station and state information including the transmission power amount and radio wave directivity of the adjacent base station. The method of sharing information between the base station and the adjacent base station may include direct transmission and reception between the base stations, transmission and reception via an external network, transmission and reception via a cloud (via an external server), or the base station and the adjacent base station each accessing an external network or a cloud and mutually referencing each other, and the like.

[0014] The determination unit 13 determines whether or not cell adjustment is necessary based on the location information of the adjacent base station, the acquired status information of the adjacent base station, the location information of the base station, and the acquired status information of the base station. If it is determined that cell adjustment is necessary, the calculation unit 14 calculates the amount of transmission power or radio wave directivity of the base station. The cell adjustment unit 15 adjusts the cell by changing the amount of transmission power or radio wave directivity to the calculated amount of transmission power or radio wave directivity.

[0015] FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a cell coordination method according to the first exemplary embodiment. The location information acquisition unit 11 acquires location information of the base station (step S11). The state information sharing unit 12 directly or indirectly shares the location information of the base station and state information including the transmission power amount and radio wave directivity of the base station with one or more adjacent base stations (step S12). The state information sharing unit 12 also acquires the location information of the adjacent base station and state information including the transmission power amount and radio wave directivity of the adjacent base station (step S13).

[0016] The determination unit 13 determines whether or not cell adjustment is necessary based on the location information of the adjacent base station, the acquired status information of the adjacent base station, the location information of the base station, and the acquired status information of the base station (step S14). If it is determined that cell adjustment is necessary, the calculation unit 14 calculates the transmission power amount or radio wave directivity of the base station (step S15). The cell adjustment unit 15 adjusts the cell by changing the calculated transmission power amount or radio wave directivity (step S16).

[0017] According to the above-described exemplary embodiment 1, it is possible to provide a base station and a cell coordination method capable of suppressing interference with radio waves from other base stations.

[0018] Exemplary embodiment 2 FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a typical base station. In a typical base station configuration, the core (5GC) and the base station are separated as shown in Figure 3. The core is connected to multiple base stations in a one-to-many relationship so that it can communicate with them. Even if a communication terminal wirelessly connected to each base station moves between multiple base stations, the core can perform processes such as handover to switch the base station with which it communicates.

[0019] 5GC generally includes an AMF / SMF / that performs C-plane functions and an on-premises User Plane Function (UPF). The UPF provides functions specialized for U-plane processing that transfers user data packet data. The base station includes a Radio Unit (RU), a Distributed Unit (DU), and a Central Unit (CU). In some embodiments, the Radio Unit (RU), Distributed Unit (DU), and Central Unit (CU) may each be separate servers.

[0020] The RU is the antenna part of the base station, and transmits and receives radio waves to and from the UE (User Equipment), and communicates with the DU. The DU is sometimes called a child station, and is mainly responsible for modulating and demodulating signals (converting between analog and digital) and retransmitting lost signals. The CU controls multiple DUs and the RRC (Radio Resource Control), which is the communication protocol between the UE and the base station.

[0021] FIG. 4 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of an integrated base station according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As used herein, an integrated base station refers to a base station equipped with 5G Core Network (5GC). For example, the base station may be, but is not limited to, a 3GPP 5G NR gNB. The base station may be capable of operating according to any of a variety of possible other cellular communication standards. In some embodiments, the integrated base station 10 may include an application server.

[0022] In the integrated base station 10 with built-in core function according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the 5GC includes a UPF. Hereinafter, the 5GC including a UPF will be described as a core. Note that whether or not the UPF function is actually performed depends on the operating environment of the base station, and in some embodiments, the UPF function may not be executed. The integrated base station 10 includes a Radio Unit (RU), a Distributed Unit (DU), and a Central Unit (CU). In FIG. 4, the RU is connected to an antenna (RF antenna, radio antenna). The DU is also connected to a Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) receiver. The base station 10 also includes a processor such as a Central Processing Unit (CPU), a memory, a directional antenna, a power source such as a battery, and the like.

[0023] The processor reads software (computer programs) from the memory and executes them to perform the processing of the base station 10 and the like described using the flowcharts in the embodiments. The processor may be, for example, a microprocessor, an MPU (Micro Processing Unit), or a CPU (Central Processing Unit). The processor may include multiple processors.

[0024] The memory may be a combination of volatile and non-volatile memory. The memory may include storage located remotely from the processor. In this case, the processor may access the memory via an I / O interface (not shown).

[0025] Since the integrated base station 10 of the present disclosure is a base station equipped with a CN (core network) including a UPF that is responsible for the U-plane, if inter-base station communication (or inter-core communication) can be realized, it is possible to build one 5G communication network across multiple base stations. Inter-base station communication may not only be direct transmission and reception between base stations, but also transmission and reception via an external network or transmission and reception via a cloud. Each base station may access the cloud and perform mutual reference. In addition, the integrated base station 10 includes a UPF function. When the integrated base station 10 executes the UPF function, it functions as a base station that can execute both the C-plane and U-plane functions. Since 5G communication is broadband communication (higher communication speed), a higher CPU processing performance is required for the U-plane function than that of existing base stations.

[0026] FIG. 5 is a top view illustrating an example in which multiple integrated base stations are used. The above-mentioned integrated base station 10 can be housed in one housing and is portable, and can be taken to a disaster-stricken area in the event of a disaster, and can be used as long as there is a power source, even if there is no carrier line. Therefore, the integrated base station 10 is also called a hand-carried base station. In that case, as shown in FIG. 5, in order to secure a wide-area coverage area (100A, 100B, and 100C in FIG. 5), multiple integrated base stations (10A, 10B, and 10C in FIG. 5) can be used in cooperation with each other. As a result, for example, the communication device 20A can communicate with the communication device 20B via the base station 10A and the base station 10B.

[0027] In the example shown in FIG. 5, each integrated base station uses a non-directional antenna, so the base station emits radio waves evenly in all directions (as shown in FIG. 5, the coverage area can be approximately circular). Usually, by performing precise calculations before installing the base station, the coverage areas reached by the radio waves of each base station can be set so that they hardly overlap with each other. In addition, it may be necessary to apply to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications in advance and obtain permission for the installation location (e.g., longitude, latitude, etc.) and setting conditions (e.g., maximum transmission power, etc.) of the base station. However, there are cases where it is not possible to accurately calculate and set the coverage area, transmission power, antenna direction, etc. in advance, such as when using the above-mentioned hand-carried base station during a disaster.

[0028] Therefore, in this disclosure, a method is proposed in which, regardless of where multiple base stations are installed, each base station automatically recognizes its location, and transmits and shares location information of each base station with other base stations, thereby autonomously adjusting transmission power and antenna orientation and adjusting the coverage area.

[0029] Currently, both carrier 5G and local 5G employ TDD (Time Division Duplex), which reverses the communication direction every very short time. In order to realize switching of the communication direction between uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) signals and to meet synchronization requirements, it is required to calculate the exact time at each location based on the atomic clock mounted on the GPS satellite and the GPS signal acquired from the satellite antenna. Therefore, base stations for carrier 5G and local 5G are equipped with a positioning function equivalent to a GPS receiver. Examples of satellite positioning systems include, but are not limited to, GPS (global positioning system) and GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems). Therefore, the base station according to the present disclosure utilizes this position acquisition function based on the positioning signal from the satellite positioning system, and after each base station acquires position information, they share each other's position information in advance through inter-base station communication. Inter-base station communication can be performed every very short time.

[0030] FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating functional blocks of the control unit of the base station. The control unit 100 includes a location information acquisition unit 110, a state information sharing unit 120, a determination unit 130, a calculation unit 140, a cell adjustment unit 150, and a storage unit 190. The control unit 100 executes a program to function as a functional calculation unit that executes each of these subdivided processes.

[0031] The position information acquisition unit 110 acquires position information of the base station. The position information acquisition unit 110 can acquire position information (e.g., longitude, latitude, etc.) of the base station 10A using a GNSS receiver. The position information acquisition unit 110 may measure the position of the base station itself based on a signal received from a satellite positioning system after the power supply of the base station is started. The position information acquisition can be performed at extremely short intervals.

[0032] The status information sharing unit 120 directly transmits the acquired position information of the base station and status information of radio waves including the transmission power amount and radio wave directivity of the base station to the adjacent base station 10B and the adjacent base station 10C through inter-base station communication. In some embodiments, for example, the transmission power amount may be the maximum transmission power amount. The radio wave directivity may be radio waves with no directionality. In other embodiments, the initial transmission power amount may be a relatively small transmission power amount, and the transmission power may be gradually increased until other adjacent base stations can be recognized or until the maximum transmission power amount is reached.

[0033] Furthermore, the state information sharing unit 120 directly acquires, from the adjacent base station 10B, location information of the adjacent base station 10B and state information including the transmission power amount and radio wave directivity of the adjacent base station 10B. The state information sharing unit 120 directly acquires, from the adjacent base station 10C, location information of the adjacent base station 10C and state information including the transmission power amount and radio wave directivity of the adjacent base station 10C. In another embodiment, the state information may also include the UPF processing load status of the base station, the number of accommodated terminals, and the communication volume estimated from the connection destination information of the accommodated terminals.

[0034] The status information sharing unit 120 of each base station broadcasts status information including the measured location information, initial transmission power amount, and initial radio wave directivity together with the ID (identifier) ​​of the base station itself to adjacent base stations. Broadcasting refers to transmitting the same information to multiple parties at the same time. This allows each base station to obtain status information including the location information, initial transmission power amount, and initial radio wave directivity of the adjacent base station. The location information and status information of the adjacent base station are stored in the storage unit 190 of each base station. Note that the sharing of the location information and status information can be performed at extremely short intervals. The sharing of the location information and status information can be performed using an integrated access backhaul (IAB) of multi-hop between base stations. In some embodiments, a communication path can be established between the base stations by connecting the base stations with a wired network. In other embodiments, the method of sharing information between the base station and the adjacent base station may be sending and receiving information via the Internet or an external network, or accessing a cloud via the Internet or an external network and mutually referencing. Note that the status information sharing unit 120 can also use a random backoff algorithm in wireless LAN to avoid collisions when broadcasting. The random backoff algorithm is an algorithm that determines a random time to wait before starting data transmission in order to avoid collisions by shifting the timing at which data transmission starts.

[0035] The determination unit 130 determines whether cell adjustment is necessary based on the acquired location information of the adjacent base station, the acquired status information of the adjacent base station, the acquired location information of the base station, and the acquired status information of the base station. Specifically, the determination unit 130 calculates the cell size and coverage area of ​​the adjacent base station based on the acquired status information of the adjacent base station, and calculates the cell size and coverage area of ​​the base station based on the acquired status information of the base station. Furthermore, the determination unit 130 can determine whether the cells of the adjacent base station and the base station overlap with each other based on the location information of the adjacent base station and the location information of the base station. If the overlapping area of ​​the cells is equal to or larger than a threshold, the determination unit 130 can determine that radio interference may occur and determine that cell adjustment is necessary.

[0036] When the determination unit 130 determines that cell adjustment is necessary, the calculation unit 140 uses a cell adjustment algorithm to calculate at least one of the transmission power amount and radio wave directivity of the base station. Here, the calculation unit 140 of the base station 10A calculates the transmission power amount or radio wave directivity of the base station based on the same cell adjustment algorithm as the calculation unit of the adjacent base station 10B. The cell adjustment algorithm may be stored in advance in the storage unit of each base station, or may be broadcast and shared to the adjacent base stations together with the state information by the state information sharing unit 120. In some embodiments, the calculation unit 140 may calculate the distance between the base station and the adjacent base station based on the acquired location information of the base station and the acquired location information of the adjacent base station.

[0037] The cell adjustment unit 150 adjusts the cell by changing the calculated amount of transmission power or radio wave directivity.

[0038] FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining the cell adjustment method. The base station 10A is arranged in an arbitrary area and its power is turned on. Similarly, the base station 10B is arranged in an arbitrary adjacent area, different from the base station 10A, and its power is turned on.

[0039] The base station 10A acquires position information (e.g., longitude, latitude, etc.) of the base station 10A using a GNSS receiver (step S201). Similarly, the base station 10B acquires position information (e.g., longitude, latitude, etc.) of the base station 10B using a GNSS receiver (step S201).

[0040] The base station 10A acquires current radio wave state information, and broadcasts and shares the information together with the above-mentioned position information of the base station 10A to the base station 10B (step S203). The base station 10B acquires current radio wave state information, and broadcasts and shares the information together with the above-mentioned position information of the base station 10B to the base station 10A (step S204).

[0041] The base station 10A judges whether or not cell adjustment is necessary (step S205). Specifically, the judgment unit 130A of the base station 10A calculates the cell size and coverage area of ​​the adjacent base station 10B based on the acquired status information of the adjacent base station, and calculates the cell size and coverage area of ​​the base station based on the acquired status information of the base station 10A. Furthermore, the judgment unit 130 judges whether or not the cells of the adjacent base station and the base station overlap with each other based on the position information of the adjacent base station and the position information of the base station. Similarly, the base station 10B judges whether or not cell adjustment is necessary (step S206).

[0042] If cell adjustment is necessary (Yes in step S205), base station 10A calculates the amount of transmission power and radio wave directivity so as to suppress interference with radio waves from base station 10B (step S207). Similarly, if cell adjustment is necessary (Yes in step S206), base station 10B calculates the amount of transmission power and radio wave directivity so as to suppress interference with radio waves from base station 10A (step S208). At this time, base station 10A and base station 10B use the same cell adjustment algorithm to calculate the amount of transmission power and radio wave directivity to be adjusted.

[0043] Finally, the base station 10A adjusts the cell by changing the calculated amount of transmission power and radio wave directivity (step S209). The base station 10B adjusts the cell by changing the calculated amount of transmission power and radio wave directivity (step S210). This makes it possible to reduce the cell size to a level that does not cause interference, as shown from the state before the adjustment of the transmission power (100A-C of the dashed line in FIG. 8) to the state after the adjustment (100A-C of the solid line in FIG. 8). In some embodiments, the cell can also be adjusted by changing the radio wave directivity (for example, an elliptical cell) without changing the amount of transmission power. A known beamforming technique can be used to change the radio wave directivity.

[0044] In some embodiments, the cell coordination system includes a base station and an adjacent base station. The base station includes a location information acquisition unit that acquires location information of the base station, a state information sharing unit that directly or indirectly shares the location information of the base station and state information including the transmission power amount and radio wave directivity of the base station with the adjacent base station and acquires the location information of the adjacent base station and the state information including the transmission power amount and radio wave directivity of the adjacent base station, a determination unit that determines whether cell coordination is necessary based on the location information of the adjacent base station, the acquired state information of the adjacent base station, the location information of the base station, and the acquired state information of the base station, a calculation unit that calculates the transmission power amount or radio wave directivity of the base station when it is determined that cell coordination is necessary, and a cell adjustment unit that adjusts the cell by changing to the calculated transmission power amount or radio wave directivity. In addition, the adjacent base station is equipped with a location information acquisition unit that acquires location information of the adjacent base station, a state information sharing unit that directly or indirectly shares the location information of the adjacent base station and state information including the transmission power amount and radio wave directivity of the adjacent base station with the base station and acquires the location information of the base station and the state information including the transmission power amount and radio wave directivity of the base station, a determination unit that determines whether or not cell adjustment is necessary based on the location information of the adjacent base station, the acquired state information of the adjacent base station, the location information of the base station, and the acquired state information of the base station, a calculation unit that calculates the transmission power amount or radio wave directivity of the adjacent base station when it is determined that cell adjustment is necessary, and a cell adjustment unit that adjusts the cell by changing to the calculated transmission power amount or radio wave directivity of the adjacent base station.

[0045] As described above, in the cell adjustment system, a mobile base station is capable of autonomously adjusting the cell diameter, thereby making it possible to prevent radio wave interference when multiple base stations are used.

[0046] In the above examples, the program includes instructions (or software code) that, when loaded into a computer, cause the computer to perform one or more functions described in the embodiments. The program may be stored in a non-transitory computer-readable medium or a tangible storage medium. By way of example and not limitation, the computer-readable medium or tangible storage medium includes random-access memory (RAM), read-only memory (ROM), flash memory, solid-state drive (SSD) or other memory technology, CD-ROM, digital versatile disc (DVD), Blu-ray® disk or other optical disk storage, magnetic cassette, magnetic tape, magnetic disk storage or other magnetic storage device. The program may be transmitted on a transitory computer-readable medium or communication medium. By way of example and not limitation, the transitory computer-readable medium or communication medium includes electrical, optical, acoustic, or other forms of propagated signals.
