Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Automatic switching-on of multi-level base stations is complicated and prone to errors, particularly due to leapfrog link establishment, where incorrect IP addresses can lead to false switching-on of base stations.
Innovation Solution
A method where base stations establish an interactive link with a base station controller, transmit a unique identifier, and receive switching-on parameters, with cross timeslots configured based on port properties to ensure correct communication parameters, reducing manual intervention and avoiding false switching-on.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Extent of automation
If automatic link establishing based on timeslots is used for multi-level base stations, then the base station can be automatically switched on without manual intervention, but switching-on errors occur due to leapfrog link establishment and incorrect IP address allocation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-configuring the BSC with a mapping relationship between base station identifiers and IP addresses before the automatic switching-on process. This allows the BSC to correctly identify which base station is attempting to connect and allocate the appropriate IP address, preventing the leapfrog link establishment error where station #3 would incorrectly receive station #2's IP address. The preliminary configuration ensures that even when intermediate stations are powered off, the correct parameter delivery occurs.
2Reliability
If manual configuration of cross timeslots is performed for each base station level, then correct communication parameters can be established, but the switching-on process becomes complicated and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies self-service by enabling base stations to automatically configure their own cross timeslots and communication parameters through the interactive link with the BSC. When a base station establishes a link, it automatically receives the necessary configuration parameters including cross timeslot settings without requiring manual intervention. This automated self-configuration maintains parameter accuracy while eliminating the complexity and time consumption of manual configuration for each base station level.
3Productivity
If IP address allocation is performed during link establishment without verification, then the switching-on process is fast, but false switching-on occurs when intermediate stations are powered off
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies feedback by implementing a verification mechanism where the BSC checks whether the allocated IP address corresponds to the correct base station identifier before finalizing the link establishment. The base station transmits its identifier during the interactive link setup, and the BSC uses this feedback to verify and adjust the IP address allocation accordingly. This feedback loop ensures switching-on correctness while maintaining fast processing speed, as the verification occurs automatically during the existing link establishment procedure without requiring additional manual steps.

AI summary
Provided are a switching-on method, a base station, a base station controller, a switching-on system and a storage medium. The method comprises: establishing, by a base station, an interactive link with a base station controller sending, by the base station, an identity identifier, wherein the identity identifier is used for uniquely determining the base station and receiving, by the base station, a switching-on parameter corresponding to the identity identifier, and executing the switching-on parameter. By means of the embodiments of the present invention, after a base station establishes an interactive link with a base station controller, an identity identifier which can uniquely determine the base station can be acquired, and a switching-on parameter of the base station is determined and issued according to the identity identifier, so that switching-on parameters acquired by various base stations are all correct switching-on parameters corresponding to positions thereof, thereby avoiding a switching-on error, and solving the problem of switching-on error caused by issuing a switching-on error parameter existing in allocation of a switching-on parameter according to an IP address of the base station in the related art.
