Base Station Control System for Terminal Load Balancing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Dynamic deployment of movable base stations can lead to excessive terminal connection to one station, causing uneven distribution and reducing communication quality due to high received power, resulting in congestion and reduced quality.
Innovation Solution
A base station control system that sets threshold values for received power and maximum terminal connections to balance the distribution of terminals across base stations, using a control station to dynamically adjust these thresholds based on congestion levels and neighboring base station connections.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If movable base stations are dynamically deployed to resolve congestion, then existing base station congestion is alleviated, but terminal connection becomes excessively unequal and new base station congestion occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies parameter changes by dynamically adjusting the transmission power level of movable base stations based on real-time terminal connection status. When the number of connected terminals exceeds a threshold, the base station reduces its transmission power, thereby controlling the received power at terminals and preventing excessive terminal attraction to a single base station. This resolves the contradiction by balancing communication quality maintenance with terminal distribution fairness.
2Area of stationary object
If transmission power from movable base station is increased to improve coverage, then area coverage is enhanced, but terminal connection becomes uneven and communication quality deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamics by making the transmission power of movable base stations adjustable and adaptive rather than fixed. The base station dynamically changes its transmission power level based on the number of connected terminals and the resulting received power at terminals. This allows the system to optimize coverage while preventing excessive terminal concentration, thereby maintaining communication quality across the coverage area.

AI summary
In a base station control system including a first base station and a base station control apparatus, the base station control apparatus reduces a deviation in the numbers of terminals connected to base stations by including a setting unit configured to set, to the first base station, at least one of a first threshold value regarding a reception power from a terminal in the first base station and a second threshold value indicating an maximum number of a number of terminals connected to the first base station as a threshold value for limiting terminals capable of connecting to the first base station.
