The user terminal related to the embodiment of the invention can comprise terminal equipment with wireless internet access functions, such as a computer, a tablet computer, a smart phone, a notebook computer, a palm computer, mobile internet equipment (MID) and the like; the cell served by the base station may include an authorized frequency band region and an unauthorized frequency band region, where the authorized frequency band region indicates a region where a wireless network frequency band adopted by an authorized communication operator is located, that is, a region covered by an LTE network, for example: the wireless network comprises a 3G network, a 4G network and the like, wherein the unauthorized frequency band region represents a region where an unauthorized wireless network frequency band is located, namely a region covered by a wireless local area network.

The following describes a configuration method of a radio access point according to an embodiment of the present invention in detail with reference to fig. 1 to 4.

Referring to fig. 1, a flow chart of a configuration method of a wireless access point is provided for an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the embodiment of the present invention describes a specific flow of a configuration method of a wireless access point from a base station side, and the method may include the following steps S101 to S102.

S101, acquiring a first type access point mobile set or a second type access point mobile set;

specifically, a base station may obtain a first type access point mobility set or a second type access point mobility set, and preferably, for the first type access point mobility set, the base station may obtain the first type access point mobility set generated by an operation and maintenance management (OAM) device, and the OAM device may group a plurality of (e.g., all) wireless access points in an unlicensed frequency band region based on a pre-configured grouping condition to generate a first type access point mobility set, and transmit the first type access point mobility set to the base station; alternatively, the base station may group a plurality of wireless access points in an unlicensed band region based on a pre-configured grouping condition to generate a first type of access point mobile set. The preconfigured grouping condition may include at least one of a distribution area of a plurality of wireless access points in the unlicensed frequency band area and history information of the distribution area, where the distribution area is used to indicate a location or a distributed area of each of the plurality of wireless access points, for example: a certain crowd-dense business area, etc.; the history information of the distribution area is used for traffic information and the like indicating the history of the distribution area.

For the second type of access point mobile set, the base station may group a plurality of wireless access points in an unlicensed band region based on terminal information of a user terminal to generate a second type of access point mobile set, and the terminal information that is a grouping condition of the second type of access point mobile set may be physical mobile information of the user terminal, which may include a moving direction and a moving trajectory of the user terminal.

It should be noted that the ap mobility set described herein includes ap information of each of at least one ap, and the ap information of each ap may include, but is not limited to, at least one of a serviceset identifier (SSID), a Basic Service Set Identifier (BSSID), a homogeneous extended basic service set identifier (HESSID) of each ap; the first type of access point mobile set is the default access point mobile set, that is, the default access point mobile set can be allocated to the user terminal accessing the cell; the second type of access point mobile set is the access point mobile set configured for the user terminal, that is, the access point mobile set configured for the user terminal requiring wireless service value addition. It is to be understood that the number of the access point mobile sets of the first type and the number of the access point mobile sets of the second type may be one or more, and is determined by the grouping condition based on grouping. The advantage of adding the access point mobile set is that when the user terminal moves between the ranges of multiple wireless access points in the mobile set, the access point mobile set is transparent to the access network side (e.g. E-UTRAN, evolved umts terrestrial radio access network), and the user terminal does not need to inform the base station (e.g. eNB or eNodeB) of the movement. Within the range managed by a wireless local area network terminal, 1 or more access point moving sets may exist, and a plurality of wireless access points under the 1 access point moving set share one wireless local area network terminal. Illustratively, one user terminal may connect to and communicate with at most one mobile set of access points at a time.

S102, outputting the access point mobile set of the first type by adopting a broadcast signaling or outputting the access point mobile set of the second type by adopting a unicast signaling;

specifically, the base station may output the first type of access point mobile set to the user terminal included in the served cell in a broadcast signaling manner, where the broadcast signaling is preferably a System Information Block (SIB) signaling or the like, and broadcast the first type of access point mobile set, so that it is not necessary to separately configure an access point mobile set for the user terminal in the cell, thereby saving signaling overhead. The user terminal receives the broadcasted access point mobile set of the first type and carries out configuration based on the access point mobile set of the first type;

the base station can output the access point mobile set of the second type to the user terminal needing the wireless service value increase in a unicast signaling mode, the unicast signaling is preferably unicast Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling, and the access point mobile set of the second type is transmitted in a unicast signaling mode, so that the service requirements of different user terminals in a served cell can be met, and the processing efficiency and the processing quality of the wireless service are effectively ensured.

It should be noted that, when the user terminal switches between the wireless access points in the access point mobile set belonging to the same first type or the access point mobile set belonging to the same second type, the user terminal does not need to be controlled by the base station, i.e. does not need to perform signaling interaction with the base station, thereby saving signaling overhead; when switching between wireless access points in the access point mobile set not belonging to the same first type or the access point mobile set not belonging to the same second type, the wireless access points need to be controlled by the base station.

Referring to fig. 2, a flow chart of another configuration method of a wireless access point is provided for an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, the embodiment of the present invention describes a specific flow of a configuration method of a radio access point from a base station side, and the method may include the following steps S201 to S208.

S201, acquiring a first type access point mobile set or a second type access point mobile set;

specifically, a base station may obtain a first type of access point mobile set or a second type of access point mobile set, and preferably, for the first type of access point mobile set, the base station may obtain a first type of access point mobile set generated by an OAM device, and the OAM device may group, based on a pre-configured grouping condition, a plurality of wireless access points in an unlicensed frequency band region to generate a first type of access point mobile set, and transmit the first type of access point mobile set to the base station; alternatively, the base station may group a plurality of wireless access points in an unlicensed band region based on a pre-configured grouping condition to generate a first type of access point mobile set. The preconfigured grouping condition may include at least one of a distribution area of a plurality of wireless access points in the unlicensed frequency band area and history information of the distribution area, where the distribution area is used to indicate a location or a distributed area of each of the plurality of wireless access points, for example: a certain crowd-dense business area, etc.; the history information of the distribution area is used for traffic information and the like indicating the history of the distribution area.

It should be noted that the access point moving set includes access point information of each of at least one wireless access point, and the access point information of each wireless access point may include, but is not limited to, SSID, BSSID, HESSID of each wireless access point; the first type of access point mobile set is the default access point mobile set, that is, the default access point mobile set can be allocated to the user terminal accessing the cell; the second type of access point mobile set is the access point mobile set configured for the user terminal, that is, the access point mobile set configured for the user terminal requiring wireless service value addition. It is to be understood that the number of the access point mobile sets of the first type and the number of the access point mobile sets of the second type may be one or more, and is determined by the grouping condition based on grouping.

Further, the base station may previously establish a communication connection with a wireless local area network terminal, and preferably, the base station may implement establishment of a communication connection between the base station and the wireless local area network terminal through a process of establishing a connection with an Xw interface that is isomorphic with the wireless local area network terminal, where the Xw interface is a fixed communication interface between the base station and the wireless local area network terminal. And the base station acquires access point information of a plurality of wireless access points in an unauthorized frequency band area from the wireless local area network terminal based on the communication connection with the wireless local area network terminal.

It should be noted that the existing third generation partnership project (3)^rdGenerationpartnership project, 3GPP) is mainly focused on the core network level, cannot consider the wireless network load, and easily causes uneven network load, for example: the 3GPP introduces an Access Network Discovery and Selection Function (ANDSF), and the ANDSF may respond to a request for selecting a user terminal to access a network, and formulate an optimal network selection policy according to information such as a location reported by the user terminal and user network selection preference, and assist the user terminal in discovering available wireless access points around, and selecting a wireless access point, thereby implementing effective offloading of service data. However, the network selection strategy of ANDSF does not take into account the channel quality and load situation of the wireless network. Therefore, in order to solve the foregoing problems, the following three solutions are proposed:

1. a Radio Access Network (RAN) may provide auxiliary information to a user terminal accessing a radio access point through a common channel or a dedicated channel, and the user terminal may distribute service data to a 3GPP or a wireless local area network according to the auxiliary information provided by the RAN, wireless local area network information measured by the user terminal, and a policy or a predefined policy obtained from an ANDSF;

2. RAN provides a network selection and a service data distribution rule, RAN provides a parameter threshold needed to be used in the distribution rule for a user terminal through a public channel or a special channel, when an ANDSF strategy does not exist, the user terminal can distribute service data to a 3GPP or a wireless local area network according to the distribution rule provided by the RAN, and when the ANDSF strategy simultaneously exists, the ANDSF strategy is preferentially adopted;

3. the RAN can provide auxiliary information for a user terminal accessed to the wireless access point through a public channel or a special channel, and if ANDSF is supported, the user terminal can shunt service data to a 3GPP or a wireless local area network according to the auxiliary information provided by the RAN, wireless local area network information measured by the user terminal, and a strategy or a predefined strategy obtained from the ANDSF; if the ANDSF is not supported, the ue may offload the service data to the 3GPP or the wireless lan according to the offloading rule provided by the RAN.

However, based on the three current schemes, when the base station in the RAN acquires access point information of multiple wireless access points, the access point information can only be acquired through OAM equipment or a pre-configuration mode, and when a new wireless access point is added, the base station cannot timely and dynamically acquire the latest state of the current wireless access point, so that by establishing communication connection with the wireless local area network terminal, the latest state of the multiple wireless access points connected with the wireless local area network terminal can be timely and dynamically acquired, the connection efficiency with the wireless access points is further improved, and the timeliness of service data distribution is ensured.

S202, acquiring terminal parameters of a user terminal, and determining a signaling transmission mode aiming at the user terminal according to the terminal parameters;

specifically, the base station may further obtain a terminal parameter uploaded by the user terminal, where the terminal parameter is used to indicate a signaling capability that the user terminal can receive, and the base station determines a signaling transmission mode for the user terminal according to the terminal parameter, where the signaling transmission mode is an output mode of a broadcast signaling or an output mode of a unicast signaling. Specifically, in order to adapt to the development of the internet of things, there may be a plurality of types of future user terminals, and the capabilities of different types of user terminals are different, and may include the capability of the user terminal to accept signaling. A user terminal of a certain capability may not be able to support an accepted way of unicast signaling. It should be noted that the user terminal may generate a report about its own capability, and the capability report may include information whether the user terminal has the capability of supporting unicast signaling. The base station may query the user terminal about the capabilities, based on which the user terminal generates a corresponding capability report and sends the capability report to the base station. A user terminal may be in the coverage of multiple base stations (e.g., enodebs). One of the base stations may be selected to serve the user terminal. The serving base station may be selected based on various criteria such as received power, path loss, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), etc. The base station is a base station designated to serve the user terminal on the downlink and/or on the uplink. A base station, as referred to herein, generally refers to a base station that serves the user terminal.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the execution sequence of step S201 and step S202 is not limited, and when the ue accesses the cell served by the base station, the ue may send the terminal information and the terminal parameter of the ue to the base station at the same time, or send the terminal parameter first and then send the terminal information, and other execution sequences all belong to the protection scope of the embodiment of the present invention.

S203, outputting the access point mobile set of the first type by adopting a broadcast signaling or outputting the access point mobile set of the second type by adopting a unicast signaling;

specifically, the base station may output the access point mobile set of the first type to the user terminal included in the served cell in a broadcast signaling manner, where the broadcast signaling is preferably SIB signaling or the like, and broadcast the access point mobile set of the first type, so that it is not necessary to separately configure an access point mobile set for the user terminal in the cell, thereby saving signaling overhead. The user terminal receives the broadcasted access point mobile set of the first type and carries out configuration based on the access point mobile set of the first type;

the base station can output the access point mobile set of the second type to the user terminal needing the wireless service value increase in a unicast signaling mode, the unicast signaling is preferably unicast RRC signaling, the access point mobile set of the second type is transmitted in a unicast signaling mode, the service requirements of different user terminals in a served cell can be met, and the processing efficiency and the processing quality of the wireless service are effectively guaranteed.

S204, when the access point mobile set of the first type is output by adopting a broadcast signaling or the access point mobile set of the second type is output by adopting a unicast signaling, outputting a first mobile set identifier of the access point mobile set of the first type by adopting the broadcast signaling or outputting a second mobile set identifier of the access point mobile set of the second type by adopting the unicast signaling;

specifically, when the base station outputs the access point mobile set of the first type by using broadcast signaling or outputs the access point mobile set of the second type by using unicast signaling, the base station may also output a first mobile set identifier of the access point mobile set of the first type by using broadcast signaling or output a second mobile set identifier of the access point mobile set of the second type by using unicast signaling. The mobile set identifier may be a sequence number (index), a sequence (sequence), or a flag bit (flag). Illustratively, the first mobile set identification and the second mobile set identification may also be related to the base station identification or may be generated according to the affiliated base station identification to save codewords. Preferably, the first mobile set identifier and the second mobile set identifier may include base station identifiers of base stations to which the access point mobile set belongs. It should be noted that the base station identification referred to throughout this document may be used to identify and distinguish between different base stations. By outputting the mobile set identification containing the base station identification to the user terminal, when the user terminal switches among the base stations, the currently accessed base station can be quickly positioned, the access point mobile set of the accessed base station is accurately acquired, and the connection efficiency with the wireless access point is further improved.

Further, if the base station receives at least one mobile set update message of priority information, network start state, and physical movement change message transmitted by the user equipment, or if the base station detects an access point change message such as a location update message and/or access message of a wireless access point, step S205 may be executed; if the base station receives the access point switching from the user terminal, step S207 is executed.

specifically, the base station may trigger updating the access point mobile set of the first type or the access point mobile set of the second type when receiving at least one of priority information, a network start state, and physical movement change information transmitted by the user terminal, or when detecting access point change information such as location update information and/or access information of a wireless access point, so as to generate an updated access point mobile set of the first type or an updated access point mobile set of the second type.

Optionally, for priority information, a user terminal may send priority information of the user terminal to the base station, the base station obtains the priority information of the user terminal, and may detect the priority information of the user terminal, where the priority information may include any one of a first priority and a second priority, and if the priority information is the first priority, it indicates that the user terminal performs value-added transaction for service demand in advance, and needs to provide a dedicated service for the user terminal with the first priority, and the base station may perform grouping again on a plurality of wireless access points in an unauthorized frequency band region according to the terminal information of the user terminal, so as to generate a first updated access point mobile set of a second type; if the priority information is a second priority, the user terminal is indicated to not process the service requirement increment, only basic service is needed to be met, namely a new access point mobile set is not needed to be generated;

optionally, for a network start state, the user terminal may send a current network start state of the user terminal to the base station, the base station obtains the network start state of the user terminal, and when the network start state indicates that the user terminal starts an LTE network and a wireless local area network convergence, the base station may group a plurality of wireless access points in an unauthorized frequency band region again according to terminal information of the user terminal to generate an access point mobile set of a second type after a second update process;

it should be noted that, for at least one kind of mobility set update information among the priority information, the network activation status, and the physical mobility change information transmitted by the ue, various combinations may be performed, for example: and when the priority information of the user terminal is a first priority and the network starting state indicates that the user terminal starts the integration of the LTE network and the wireless local area network, triggering the base station to generate an updated access point mobile set of a second type, and the like, wherein the specific combination mode can be set by an operator.

Optionally, for location update information, the base station detects that location update information of a first wireless access point exists in the unlicensed frequency band region, and the base station may perform, according to a location of the first wireless access point indicated by the location update information, fourth update processing on the access point mobile set of the first type or the access point mobile set of the second type;

optionally, for the access information, the base station detects that there is access information of a second wireless access point in the unlicensed frequency band region, and the base station may perform a fifth update process on the access point mobile set of the first type or the access point mobile set of the second type according to the location of the second wireless access point indicated by the access information.

S206, outputting the updated access point mobile set of the first type by adopting a broadcast signaling or outputting the updated access point mobile set of the second type by adopting a unicast signaling;

specifically, the base station may output the updated access point mobility set of the first type by using a broadcast signaling or output the updated access point mobility set of the second type by using a unicast signaling.

It is to be understood that the above procedure of updating the configured first type of access point mobile set or the second type of access point mobile set is preferably a procedure of replacing the configured first type of access point mobile set or the second type of access point mobile set.

It should be noted that, after updating the configured first type access point mobility set or the second type access point mobility set, if the base station receives an access point handover from a user equipment, the step S207 is executed.

specifically, when the user terminal is handed over from a source wireless access point to a target wireless access point among a plurality of wireless access points in an unlicensed frequency band region, for example: with the movement of the user terminal, the connection signal between the user terminal and the source wireless access point is gradually weakened, and at this time, the user terminal needs to be connected to a target wireless access point with a stronger signal, and the like.

For the second type of access point mobile set, the mobile set obtaining unit 101 may group a plurality of wireless access points in an unlicensed band region based on terminal information of a user terminal to generate a second type of access point mobile set, where the terminal information that is a grouping condition of the second type of access point mobile set may be physical mobile information of the user terminal, and the physical mobile information of the user terminal may include a moving direction and a moving trajectory of the user terminal.

A mobile set output unit 102, configured to output the access point mobile set of the first type by using broadcast signaling or output the access point mobile set of the second type by using unicast signaling;

in a specific implementation, the mobile set output unit 102 may output the access point mobile set of the first type to the user terminals included in the served cell in a broadcast signaling manner, where the broadcast signaling is preferably SIB signaling or the like, and broadcast the access point mobile set of the first type, so that it is not necessary to separately configure an access point mobile set for the user terminals in the cell, thereby saving signaling overhead. The user terminal receives the broadcasted access point mobile set of the first type and carries out configuration based on the access point mobile set of the first type;

The base station 1 acquires access point information of a plurality of wireless access points in an unauthorized frequency band region from the wireless local area network terminal based on the communication connection with the wireless local area network terminal.

It should be noted that, the existing interoperation between 3GPP and wlan is mainly focused on the core network level, and the wireless network load cannot be considered, which is likely to cause uneven network load, for example: 3GPP introduces ANDSF, ANDSF can respond to the request of user terminal for accessing network selection, and according to the position reported by the user terminal and the information such as user network selection preference, an optimal network selection strategy is formulated to assist the user terminal to find the available wireless access points around, and assist the user terminal to select the wireless access points, thereby realizing effective distribution of service data. However, the network selection strategy of ANDSF does not take into account the channel quality and load situation of the wireless network. Therefore, in order to solve the foregoing problems, the following three solutions are proposed:

1. the RAN can provide auxiliary information for a user terminal accessed to the wireless access point through a public channel or a special channel, and the user terminal can shunt service data to a 3GPP or a wireless local area network according to the auxiliary information provided by the RAN, wireless local area network information measured by the user terminal and a strategy or a predefined strategy obtained from the ANDSF;

However, based on the three current schemes, when the base station 1 in the RAN acquires access point information of a plurality of wireless access points, the access point information can only be acquired through OAM equipment or a pre-configuration mode, and when a new wireless access point is added, the base station 1 cannot timely and dynamically acquire the latest state of the current wireless access point, so that by establishing a communication connection with a wireless local area network terminal, the latest state of the plurality of wireless access points connected with the wireless local area network terminal can be timely and dynamically acquired, the connection efficiency with the wireless access points is further improved, and the timeliness of service data offloading is ensured.
