Description

Method and device for processing resource information

technical field

The present invention relates to the communication field, in particular, to a resource information processing method and device.

Background technique

With the rapid development of mobile communication technology, there are multiple standard networks in the current mobile communication system: the second generation mobile communication technology (2G), the third generation mobile communication technology (3G) and the fourth generation mobile communication technology (4G). ). If the resource allocation in these networks of different standards is unbalanced, the network with too much resource consumption will not be able to provide users with required services, and the network resources with low resource consumption will have relatively large idleness. In order to effectively utilize network resources and provide users with better services, it is imperative to balance network resources of multiple formats. In related technologies, a single-system equalization method is usually adopted, and the resources considered are only load values. Due to the large difference between 2G, 3G and 4G systems and between the processing capabilities of macro base stations and micro base stations, the load value is the consumption of wireless resources, which cannot directly represent the consumption of equipment processing capabilities, that is, the load value is high. It does not mean that the processing capacity is limited; the load value is low, and it does not mean that the processing capacity is still free. Moreover, once the processing capability is limited, it will not be possible to reduce the service rate according to the excessively high wireless load. As a result, the signaling cannot be processed correctly, which will cause the user equipment (UE) to drop calls.

detailed description

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings and examples. It should be noted that, in the case of no conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a method for processing resource information according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Figure 1, the method may include the following processing steps:

Step S102: Obtain resource information reported by multiple base station controllers, where each base station controller corresponds to a network of a different standard;

Step S104: Allocate initial resources for the service to be executed in the multi-standard network according to the resource information or perform resource adjustment during the service maintenance process.

In the related art, it is impossible to realize the resource balance of multiple network standards. Using the method shown in Figure 1, through information interaction with a variety of base station controllers that support different network standards, and according to the resource information obtained from multiple base station controllers, initial resources are allocated for the services to be executed in the multi-standard network Or resource adjustment is performed during the service maintenance process, thereby solving the problem that resource balance of multiple network standards cannot be achieved in related technologies, thereby avoiding UE call drop, which is beneficial to improving user experience and network operation capability.

In a preferred embodiment, a new network element can be introduced: MultiRAT Resource Controller (MultiRATResourceController, MRRC for short), which is responsible for balancing multi-standard network resources, which can include but not limited to: initial resource allocation, subsequent resource allocation Adjustment. Communication between MRRC and the base station controller can be carried out through the new interface.

As shown in Figure 2, the communication architecture may include: newly added network element MRRC and base station controllers corresponding to networks of different standards (may include but not limited to: 2G corresponds to a base station controller (BSC), 3G corresponds to a radio network controller ( RNC), and 4G corresponds to an evolved base station (eNodeB)) for communication interaction through a physical connection. The base station controller is pre-configured to complete the MRRC identification, for example: the MRRC ID number or the Internet Protocol (IP) address corresponding to the MRRC, and the message interface between the MRRC and the base station controller is defined as the M interface, which is used for communication between the MRRC and the base station controller Signaling interaction. The resource information transfer of the base station controller and the transfer of resource allocation information are performed through the M interface. When a standard network is newly added, only an additional interface needs to be added on the MRRC, and there is no need to exchange messages with other existing network interfaces. Therefore, the biggest advantage of the above network architecture lies in its strong scalability.

The MRRC receives the resource information reported by the base station controller, and processes the resource information for initial resource allocation or resource adjustment in the service maintenance process.

As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a resource allocation process according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Figure 3, the process can be processed as follows:

Step S302: MRRC receives the resource information reported by the base station controller.

The foregoing resource information may include but not limited to at least one of the following: cell information, load information, and device processing capability information.

Mode 2: MRRC periodically sends a resource information request (ResourceInformationRequest) message to the base station controller, and the base station controller reports resource information to the MRRC by sending a resource information response (ResourceInformationResponse) message.
