Description

The method and the device of a kind of tracking location of user equipment and alarm
Technical field
The present invention relates to mobile communication equipment, the method and the device of particularly a kind of tracing customer equipment UE (UserEquipment) position and alarm.
Background technology
The mobile network from early stage analog signal to digital signal, from only have circuit commutative field to only need packet-switched domain, from omnifarious by now supplementary service of voice service and value-added service only can be provided, the identity of operator converts the integrated service ISP to from simple telephone communication services person.Traditional voice service is very ripe and stable, although also will be the most topmost service, but no longer be the emphasis that operator and user pay close attention to, how find new focus, carry out new value-added service, the powerful measure that is only its consolidation and exploits market.
The raising of economic level and urbanization process make people's life scope enlarge rapidly, and the distance between work unit or school and the family constantly widens.For the family that child is arranged, child's safety problem is that the head of a family pays close attention to the most.If can provide the service that can carry out periodicity location and alarm to the personnel that only carry mobile phone for the user, market prospects will be very wide.
Mention the location, the method for main flow is to use GPS (Global Position System) at present.GPS utilizes satellite fix, and advantage is that precision is higher, the civilian 10m level that reaches.But using GPS, all is a no small investment on the hardware and software.Even GPS module that the part mobile phone is integrated at present, but mainly use for cellphone subscriber's self poisoning or navigation, if going for its position, other people also need acquire extra information transceiving equipment and means.
Existing in fact mobile terminal device has had positioning function, i.e. the location, base station.Modal application only needs corresponding software is installed on mobile phone, and opens data service no more than the google map, can use.The advantage of base station location is user's existing mobile device that need not to upgrade, and location work is finished by the base station, and the business platform of result by core net returned to the user.But compare with GPS, the base station locating accuracy is relatively poor, and according to the difference of base station positioning method, precision is also had nothing in common with each other.Main localization method has CELL ID location, OTDOA (Observed Time Difference Of Arrival) location, AOA (angelof arrival) location etc.
CELL ID location technology is the simplest location technology at present, and its principle is to determine the position at its place by the cellular cell ID that obtains the target mobile phones place, offers consumer positioning.Simple CELL ID implementation method can not considered precision, and the position error that obtains like this is exactly the size of a honeycomb.The urban district traffic carrying capacity is big, and number of base stations is many, and honeycomb is less, and error is in the 100m level; The suburb traffic carrying capacity is little, and number of base stations is few, and honeycomb is bigger, error even can be in the 1000m level.The method of this realization does not need existing network is changed, and is although error is very big, very economical.
OTDOA is the locate mode under a kind of 3G of being applied to (3rd Generation) network.In GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) network, similar localization method is arranged also, be called E-OTD (Enhanced Observed Time Difference).The basic principle of this localization method is: the down-bound pilot frequency signal of moving table measuring different base station, obtain the TOA (Time ofArrival, due in) of different base station descending pilot frequency, and promptly so-called pilot phase is measured.According to this measurement result and in conjunction with the coordinate of base station, adopt suitable location-estimation algorithm, just can calculate the position of travelling carriage.Actual location-estimation algorithm need be considered the situation of location, many base stations (more than 3 or 3), so algorithm wants complicated a lot.Generally speaking, the number of base stations of moving table measuring is many more, and certainty of measurement is high more, and positioning performance improves obvious more.The positioning accuracy of OTDOA is compared the CELLID method and is wanted high, but its precision is subjected to the influence of environment, can be with mobile position estimation in 10~20 meters scopes in suburb and rural area; More in the city owing to high-lager building, radio propagation environment is bad, signal is difficult to directly arrive from the base station travelling carriage, generally will be through superrefraction or reflection, error (the time measurement error of 10ns is promptly represented 3 meters range error) has also just appearred in the TOA of down-bound pilot frequency signal, therefore positioning accuracy can be affected, and orientation range is 100~200 meters.
AOA (Angle of Arrival) algorithm is to measure electromagnetic incident angle at receiver by aerial array, forms the traverse line from the receiver to the transmitter, i.e. Line Of Observed Position, and the intersection point of 2 Line Of Observed Positions that obtained by 2 base stations is exactly the position of travelling carriage.But in order to measure electromagnetic incident angle, the antenna of receiver needs to improve, and must be equipped with the aerial array of high directivity.Adopt the method can obtain higher accuracy, but in the more environment of barrier, because there is multipath effect in wireless transmission, then error increase in the less area of barrier.In addition, the AOA technology will be based upon on the basis of smart antenna and could realize.
But the deficiencies in the prior art are: do not have the existing location technology of better utilization to provide more service for the user.
Summary of the invention

Embodiment
The invention provides and a kind ofly can realize that under existing mobile network's structure the user locatees and concrete enforcements of alerting service is machine-processed.
Any change is not made in UE and base station.
The business platform of core net need increase following content: authorized user list, monitoring side's list (for example number) of this service of record customization, and the to be tracked UE information (for example number) related with it.
Assignment database writes down the current user who is enabling this service i.e. mode of the side of monitoring, alert users (note, phone, mail etc.), safety zone, and safeguards one group of periodically timer, operates in order to triggered location.
The tracing area storehouse, according to the storehouse, one group of zone that positioning accuracy is set, the side of monitoring user selects the safety zone in view of the above, promptly triggers alarm outside tracked UE moves to the zone.Precision and the local base station deployment situation in storehouse, zone and the location technology that is adopted are relevant.
At first will be in the authorized user list with monitoring side's user record, the number of monitored UE recording user appointment simultaneously and that checked and approved.This positioning action business is closed at ordinary times, and the side of monitoring user need send the request of activation if will activate this business, can realize by the form of phone or transmission service code when specifically implementing.Whether signatory mobile service platform is searched in the authorized user list, to examine user's this business.
After the side's of monitoring user identity is verified, mobile service platform can the form by phone or note be set the safety zone for the user, and promptly tracked UE thinks when movable safe in this zone, does not need to alarm, in case UE moves to outside the zone, then need to alarm to the user.
After the user set the safety zone and finishes, business platform can trigger positioning action for the first time.After this just locate once at set intervals.Consider real-time, when tracked UE occurrence positions upgraded and satisfy predetermined report condition, business platform also can the triggered location operation, and needn't wait until next time and relocate behind the timer expiry.For example adopt, during the CELLID method, the cellular cell ID at target mobile phones place changes, and just tracked UE occurrence positions upgrades, and satisfies report condition this moment because cellular cell ID changes, then can the triggered location operation.
Specific to positioning action each time, business platform can adopt different location technologies as the case may be, even multiplexing multiple technologies.For example at first adopt positioning accuracy lower, but speed CELL ID location technology faster.If all in safety zone (appointed area), then this operation can finish in the whole sub-district at tracked UE place; If the sub-district at tracked UE place outside the safety zone, then needs to alarm immediately, and continue more accurate localization operation, to report relatively accurate UE position; If the sub-district part at tracked UE place outside the safety zone, can't determine just whether monitored UE is positioned at the safety zone, then select the location technology that precision is higher, positioning time is short to continue to judge the UE position.Under the prerequisite that guarantees the alarm accuracy, improved the speed that sends a warning message to a great extent like this.
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing the specific embodiment of the present invention is described.

The monitoring square tube is crossed and is called or send the service number form that expression starts service in the present embodiment, sends the request of activation.
Whether signatory step 2: business platform is searched in the authorized user list, to examine monitoring side user positioning action business.
Step 3: after the side of monitoring user was verified, mobile service platform can increase location tasks newly in assignment database, and at first asked to set the safety zone to the user by forms such as phone or notes.
Asking to set the safety zone by forms such as phone or notes to the user is preferred version in the present embodiment, can certainly be to preestablish the safety zone, after receiving the service number that starts service directly according to preestablishing to determine the safety zone.
Step 4: if the safety zone is provided with unsuccessful (for example wait timeout) then handle directly and finish, successful then continuation.
Step 5: business platform is carried out positioning action, obtains the positional information of monitored subscriber equipment.
If business platform is the location of overtime triggering of phase first or periodically regularly, can use positioning accuracy lower but location technology that speed is higher is finished " fuzzy location " earlier.
Step 6: business platform judges whether to determine tracked UE in the safety zone according to the positional information of obtaining, if then jump to step 11, otherwise execution in step 7.
Step 7: judge whether to determine tracked UE not in the safety zone, if execution in step 10 then, otherwise, execution in step 8
Step 8: determine only part checks whether used the highest location technology of precision in the safety zone, if execution in step 10 then, otherwise execution in step 9,
Step 9: change the higher location technology of precision, jump to step 5;
Step 10: business platform is alarmed to the user by forms such as phone or notes, and points out the approximate location of tracked UE;
Step 11: the start-up period timer, when the periodicity timer expiry, when perhaps tracked UE executing location is upgraded operation (needing the dwelling period timer), jump to step 5 and carry out positioning action.
How to choose more high-precision location technology in the step 9, need take all factors into consideration the implementation complexity of various location technologies, whether how to tell tracked UE in the shortest time is the index of weighing in the safety zone, directly using the location technology of full accuracy or progressively increasing positioning accuracy all may not be optimum method, may also need to assist according to the statistics in the current region.
In like manner, after business platform was carried out positioning action, the side of monitoring user also can deactivate this service to mobile service platform by the service number of calling or send expression deactivation service, stops to obtain the positional information of monitored UE.Business platform stops relevant timer after examining the user, and the removing task gets final product from assignment database.
