DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS
Technical solutions in embodiments of the present disclosure will be hereinafter described clearly and comprehensively with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are merely part embodiments of the present disclosure, and for persons of ordinary skill in the art, the present disclosure also can be implemented by other embodiments which are not stick to these specific details.
FIG. 1 is an architecture diagram of a CoMP system which the embodiments of the present disclosure is based on. The coverage of a macro cell of a macro base station includes one or more RRHs, and the one or more RRHs may be connected to the macro base station via a transmission cable (e.g. optical fiber). These RRHs are configured at an edge of the macro cell, in order to improve data transmission speed, cell edge throughput and system throughput. The macro base station may select one or more RRHs to serve a user terminal (such as to transmit data for a user terminal). Under the CoMP system architecture, a CoMP set serving a user terminal includes one or more RRHs which serve the user terminal. One CoMP set provides service to one user terminal, and different CoMP sets provide service to different user terminals. In the prior art, a user terminal judges whether to initiate RRC connection re-establishment, through a CRS sent by a cell. However, under the CoMP architecture, if a user terminal judges whether to initiate RRC connection re-establishment only according to the CRS, a misjudgment may occur. For example, under the CoMP architecture, a macro cell sends a CRS, and an RRH only sends a channel state indication reference signal (channel state information-reference signal in English, briefed as CSI-RS). Under this situation, if a user terminal at an edge of the macro cell performs monitoring a radio link failure only according to the CRS sent by the macro cell, it may be determined that a radio link failure occurs, and thus the user terminal will initiate RRC connection re-establishment. However, in fact, there may be an RRH that is nearer to the user terminal and serves the user terminal, the RRH sends CSI-RSs with a better signal quality, and thus the user terminal actually does not need to initiate the RRC connection re-establishment.
For another example, under the CoMP architecture, both the macro cell and the RRH send a CRS, and the RRH further sends a CSI-RS. Under this situation, the RRH sends the same CRS on the same physical resource as the macro cell, and the location of the CSI-RS sent by the RRH is staggered from that of the CRS. Under this situation, if the terminal locates at a position where the covering of signals of both the macro cell and the RRH is poor, theoretically, the CRS sent by the macro cell and the CRS sent by the RRH have a poor signal quality, then the CSI-RS received by the terminal has a poor quality either. However, the CRS received by the terminal is the CRS sent by the macro cell plus the CRS sent by the RRH, it is possible that the signal quality of the CRS received by the user terminal meet the condition that it is unnecessary to initiate the RRC connection re-establishment. If the user terminal judges whether a radio link failure occurs only according to its received CRS, then the user terminal may falsely determine that it is unnecessary to initiate the RRC connection re-establishment. Actually, the signal quality of data transmitted in the other channels (e.g., a physical downlink shared channel) received by the user terminal is already very poor, and the user terminal should initiate the RRC connection re-establishment to ensure that the experience on the user terminal is not degraded.
A first embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for monitoring a radio link, as shown in FIG. 2, the method includes following contents.
S20: a user terminal monitors a CRS and a CSI-RS.
S21: the user terminal judges whether to initiate RRC connection re-establishment, according to the CRS and the CSI-RS.
Optionally, the S21 may include:
S21-1: the user terminal monitors signal qualities of the CRS and the CSI-RS, if the signal quality of the CRS or the CSI-RS meets a requirement of in-synchronization or out-of-synchronization, a physical layer of the user terminal sends out-of-synchronization indication or in-synchronization indication to a RRC layer of the user terminal.
As an example, reference may be made to 3GPP TS 36.133 about how the above mentioned physical layer of the user terminal sends the out-of-synchronization indication and the in-synchronization indication to the RRC layer of the user terminal, which will neither be repeated nor limited hereby.
Further, the out-of-synchronization indication also includes an identifier, the identifier is used for indicating that it is the out-of-synchronization indication of the CRS or the out-of-synchronization indication of the CSI-RS.
Further, the in-synchronization indication also includes an identifier, the identifier is used for indicating that it is the in-synchronization indication of the CRS or the in-synchronization indication of the CSI-RS.
Further, the RRC layer of the user terminal can identify the out-of-synchronization indication or the in-synchronization indication of the CRS, and the out-of-synchronization indication or the in-synchronization indication of the CSI-RS through the above mentioned identifier.
S21-2: the RRC layer of the user terminal judges whether a radio link failure occurs according to the out-of-synchronization indication and the in-synchronization indication.
As an example, in a scenario where the user terminal does not use discontinuous reception (briefed as DRX), the physical layer of the user terminal calculates a signal-to-noise ratio of a reference signal (e.g., a CRS or a CSI-RS) once in every time length of a radio frame (e.g., the time length of a radio frame is 10 millisecond), where the signal-to-noise ratio may be a signal to interference plus noise ratio (briefed as SINR). The physical layer of the user terminal obtains a plurality of the above mentioned reference signals (e.g., first 20 reference signals) once every certain period of time (e.g., 200 millisecond) to acquire the SINR through a filtering way such as average filtering or mid-value filtering etc., and judges whether the signal-to-noise ratio is smaller than a threshold of out-of-synchronization (Qout), if yes, the physical layer of the user terminal reports out-of-synchronization indication (out-of-sync) to the RRC layer. The physical layer of the user terminal further calculates the SINR of a plurality of reference signals (e.g. first 10 reference signals) that are obtained once every certain period of time (e.g., 100 millisecond), judges whether the SINR is greater than a threshold of in-synchronization, and if yes, reports in-synchronization indication (in-sync) to the RRC layer. If the RRC layer of the user terminal receives the out-of-synchronization indication for successive N310 times (for the configuration of the value of N310, reference can be made to 3GPP TS 36.133), then a timer (e.g., T310) starts, and before the timer expires, if the RRC layer does not receive the in-synchronization indication for successive N311 times (for the configuration of the value of N311, reference can be made to 3GPP TS 36.133), the user terminal considers that a radio link failure occurs on this reference signal, and initiates the RRC connection re-establishment.
By applying the technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, a user terminal judges whether to initiate RRC connection re-establishment according to the CRS and the CSI-RS, instead of judging whether to initiate the RRC connection re-establishment only according to the CRS. Thus, the user terminal can perform monitoring the radio link more accurately and perform the RRC connection re-establishment in time, to reduce occurrence of misjudgment, thereby improving the experience on the user terminal.
A second embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for monitoring a radio link, as shown in FIG. 3, the method includes the following contents.
The second embodiment of the present disclosure is a further extension to that of the first embodiment of the present disclosure, and the technical features of method, conceptions, effects etc. in the first embodiment of the present disclosure are applicable to the second embodiment of the present disclosure.
S30: a user terminal monitors a CRS and a CSI-RS.
S31: the user terminal judges, according to the CRS and the CSI-RS monitored, whether a radio link failure occurs on at least one of the CRS and the CSI-RS.
The CRS in the second embodiment of the present disclosure may be a CRS sent by a macro cell and a CRS sent by a RRH in a CoMP set. The CSI-RS in the second embodiment of the present disclosure may be a CSI-RS sent by the RRH in the CoMP set.
In the second embodiment of the present disclosure, as for judging whether a radio link failure occurs on the CRS or the CSI-RSs, reference may be made to the content described in step S21-2 in the first embodiment of the present disclosure.
S32: if the above mentioned user terminal judges out that the radio link failure occurs on at least one of the above mentioned CRS and CSI-RS, the above mentioned user terminal initiates RRC connection re-establishment.
Optionally, the method in the second embodiment of the present disclosure, may further include:
S33: if the above mentioned user terminal judges out that no radio link failure occurs on the CRS and the CSI-RS, the above mentioned user terminal does not initiate the RRC connection re-establishment.
Optionally, the method in the second embodiment of the present disclosure, may further include:
S34: the user terminal judges, according to the CSI-RS sent by a certain RRH in the CoMP set, whether the radio link failure occurs on the CSI-RS.
S35: if the user terminal judges out that the radio link failure occurs on the CSI-RS sent by the certain RRH in the CoMP set, the user terminal deletes this RRH from the CoMP set.
In the second embodiment of the present disclosure, the user terminal judges whether to initiate RRC connection re-establishment according to the CRS and the CSI-RS, instead of judging whether to initiate the RRC connection re-establishment only according to the CRS. Thus, the user terminal can perform monitoring the radio link more accurately, and perform RRC connection re-establishment in time, to reduce occurrence of misjudgment, thereby improving the experience on the user terminal. Specifically, under the situation that a macro cell sends a CRS, and an RRH in a CoMP set sends both the CRS and a CSI-RS, for a user terminal, the CRS is the CRS sent by the macro cell plus the CRS sent by the RRH in the CoMP set, if the user terminal judges whether a radio link failure occurs only according to the CRS, a misjudgment may be generated. For example, when the user terminal locates at a position where the covering of signals of both the macro cell and the RRH is poor, both the CRS sent by the macro cell and the CRS sent by the RRH have a poor signal quality (e.g. the user terminal is no longer under the coverage of the macro cell and its RRH), however a signal superposition of their CRS s (i.e. the CRS received by the user terminal) has a better signal quality, if at this time the user terminal judges whether the radio link fails only according to the CRS, it will be judged out that no radio link failure occurs, and thus there is no need to initiate RRC connection re-establishment, while the fact is that the covering of the signals of the macro cell and the RRH that provide service for the user terminal has already been poor, and the user terminal should initiate the RRC connection re-establishment in order to enable the experience on the user terminal not to be degraded. And thus, in the second embodiment of the present disclosure, the user terminal will initiate the RRC connection re-establishment when judging out that the radio link failure occurs on at least one of the CRS and the CSI-RS, which can reduce the misjudgments under the above mentioned situations as much as possible, thereby improving the experience on the user terminal.
Further, in the second embodiment of the present disclosure, the user terminal may further judge whether a radio link failure occurs with respect to a CSI-RS sent by a certain RRH of the RRHs in the CoMP set, and if the radio link failure occurs on the CSI-RS sent by the certain RRH, then this RRH is deleted from the RRHs in the CoMP set. Under the situation that the total number of the RRH in the CoMP set that provides service for the user terminal is limited, deleting the RRH with a poor signal quality can enable an RRH that is capable of providing the user terminal a reference signal with a better quality to be added into the CoMP set in time, so as to provide for the user terminal to use, thereby improving the experience on the user terminal.
A third embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for monitoring a radio link, as shown in FIG. 4, the method includes the following contents.
The third embodiment of the present disclosure is a further refinement of the first embodiment of the present disclosure, and the technical features of method, conceptions, and effects etc. in the first embodiment of the present disclosure is applicable to the third embodiment of the present disclosure.
S40: a user terminal monitors a CRS and a CSI-RS.
S41: the user terminal judges whether a radio link failure occurs on both the CRS and the CSI-RS, according to the CRS and the CSI-RS monitored.
The CRS in the third embodiment of the present disclosure may be a CRS sent by a macro cell; and the CSI-RS in the third embodiment of the present disclosure may be a CSI-RS sent by a RRH in a CoMP set.
S42: if the user terminal judges out that the radio link failure occurs on both the CRS sent by the macro cell and the CSI-RS sent by the RRH in the CoMP set, the user terminal initiates RRC connection re-establishment.
Optionally, the method in the third embodiment of the present disclosure may further include:
S43: if the user terminal judges out that no radio link failure occurs on the reference signals sent by the macro cell and the RRH in the CoMP set or the radio link failure does not occur on both the reference signals sent by the macro cell and the RRH, the user terminal does not initiate the RRC connection re-establishment.
As an example, in the third embodiment of the present disclosure, reference may be made to the description in the first embodiment of the present disclosure for the user terminal judging whether a radio link failure occurs on both the CRS sent by the macro cell and the CSI-RS sent by the RRH in the CoMP set, which includes:
S41-1: a physical layer of the user terminal sends out-of-synchronization indication or in-synchronization indication to the user terminal according to the reference signal (the reference signal may be the CRS, and also may be the CSI-RS).
As an example, the user terminal monitors the signal quality of the CRS and the CSI-RS. If the signal quality of the CRS or the CSI-RS meets the requirement of in-synchronization or out-of-synchronization, the physical layer of the user terminal sends the out-of-synchronization indication or the in-synchronization indication to the RRC layer of the user terminal. Reference may be made to 3GPP TS 36.133 about how the physical layer of the user terminal sends the out-of-synchronization indication and the in-synchronization indication to the user terminal according to the reference signal, which will be neither repeated nor limited hereby.
S41-2: the RRC layer of the user terminal judges whether the radio link failure occurs on both the reference signals according to the out-of-synchronization indication or the in-synchronization indication.
Optionally, the method in the third embodiment of the present disclosure may further include:
S44: the user terminal judges whether the radio link failure occurs on the CSI-RS according to the CSI-RS sent by a certain RRH in the CoMP set.
S45: if the user terminal judges out that the radio link failure occurs on the CSI-RS sent by the certain RRH in the CoMP set, the user terminal delete this RRH from the CoMP set.
By applying the technical solutions provided in the third embodiment of the present disclosure, a user terminal judges whether to initiate RRC connection re-establishment according to the CRS and the CSI-RS, instead of judging whether to initiate RRC connection re-establishment only according to the CRS. Thus, the user terminal can perform monitoring the radio link more accurately, and perform RRC connection re-establishment in time, to reduce occurrence of misjudgment, thereby improving the experience on the user terminal. Specifically, under the situation that the macro cell sends the CRS, and the RRH in the CoMP set sends only the CSI-RS, if a user terminal, locating at the edge of the macro cell performs monitoring a radio link failure only according to the CRS sent by the macro cell, at this time the signal quality of the CRS sent by the macro cell is poor, and then the user terminal judges out that the radio link failure occurs, thereupon the user terminal initiates RRC connection re-establishment. However, the fact is that there may be a RRH which is nearer to the user terminal than the macro cell, and the RRH sends a CSI-RS with a better signal quality, and the user terminal actually does not need to initiate RRC connection re-establishment, in this way, a misjudgment is generated. And thus, in the technical solution provided in the third embodiment of the present disclosure, the user terminal initiates RRC connection re-establishment when the user terminal judges out that the radio link failure occurs on both the CRS sent by the macro cell and the CSI-RS sent by the RRH in the CoMP set, which can avoid such kind of misjudgment, thereby improving the experience on the user terminal.
Furthermore, the user terminal may further judge whether a radio link failure occurs with respect to a CSI-RS sent by a certain RRH of the RRHs in the CoMP set, and if the radio link failure occurs on the CSI-RS sent by the certain RRH, this RRH is deleted from the RRH in the CoMP set. Under the situation that the total number of the RRH in the CoMP set which provides service for the user terminal is limited, deleting the RRH with a poor signal quality can enable an RRH that can provide the user terminal a reference signal with a better quality to be added into the CoMP set timely, so as to provide for the user terminal to use, thereby improving the experience of the user.
A fourth embodiment of the present disclosure provides a device for monitoring a radio link, as shown in FIG. 5A, the device includes:
a monitoring unit 50, configured to monitor a CRS and a CSI-RS; and
a judging unit 51, configured to judge whether to initiate RRC connection re-establishment, according to the CRS and the CSI-RS monitored.
Optionally, in the fourth embodiment of the present disclosure, the judging unit 51 includes a physical layer unit 51-1 and a RRC layer unit 51-2;
The physical layer unit 51-1 sends out-of-synchronization indication or in-synchronization indication to the RRC layer unit 51-2 of the judging unit 51 according to the CRS and the CSI-RS; the RRC layer unit 51-2 is configured to judge whether a radio link failure occurs according to the out-of-synchronization indication or the in-synchronization indication; if yes, the RRC layer unit 51-2 judges out that there is a need to initiate the RRC connection re-establishment; if no, the RRC layer unit 51-2 judges out that there is no need to initiate the RRC connection re-establishment.
Furthermore, the out-of-synchronization indication or the in-synchronization indication sent to the RRC layer unit 51-2 by the physical layer unit 51-1 according to the CRS and the CSI-RS includes an identifier, the identifier is used for the RRC layer unit 51-2 to identify the out-of-synchronization indication or the in-synchronization indication of the CRS and the out-of-synchronization indication or the in-synchronization indication of the CSI-RS.
As an example, the monitoring unit 50 is configured to monitor a CRS sent by a macro cell and a CRS sent by a RRH in a CoMP set, and a CSI-RS sent by the RRH in the CoMP set. Correspondingly, the judging unit 51 is configured to judge, according to the CRS and the CSI-RS, whether a radio link failure occurs on at least one of the CRS and the CSI-RS; if yes, the judging unit 51 judges out that RRC connection re-establishment needs to be initiated; if no, the judging unit 51 judges out that the RRC connection re-establishment does not need to be initiated.
As another example, the monitoring unit 50 is further configured to monitor the CRS sent by the macro cell, and the CSI-RS sent by the RRH in the CoMP set. Under this situation, the macro cell sends the CRS, and the RRH in the CoMP set sends only the CSI-RS. Correspondingly, the judging unit 51 is configured to judge, according to the CRS and the CSI-RS, whether a radio link failure occurs on both the CRS and the CSI-RS; if yes, the judging unit 51 judges out that RRC connection re-establishment needs to be initiated; if no, the judging unit 51 judges out that the RRC connection re-establishment does not need to be initiated.
Optionally, as shown in FIG. 5B, the device further includes: a re-establishing unit 52, configured to, if the judging unit 51 judges out that the RRC connection re-establishment needs to be initiated, initiate the RRC connection re-establishment.
Optionally, the judging unit 51 is further configured to judge the CSI-RS sent by which one of the RRH in the CoMP set the radio link failure occurs on. Correspondingly, as shown in FIG. 5C, the device in the fourth embodiment of the present disclosure further includes: a deleting unit 53, configured to, if the judging unit 51 judges out that the radio link failure occurs on the CSI-RS sent by a certain RRH of the RRHs in the CoMP set, delete this RRH from the CoMP set.

Furthermore, the device provided in the fourth embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to execute actions or steps in the embodiments of method, may further includes other electronic circuits, interfaces and electronic devices, the details will not be repeated hereby.
By applying the technical solutions provided in the fourth embodiment of the present disclosure, the device for monitoring a radio link, the device judges whether to initiate RRC connection re-establishment according to the CRS and the CSI-RS, instead of judging whether to initiate the RRC connection re-establishment only according to the CRS.

Furthermore, the device for monitoring a radio link, may further judge whether a radio link failure occurs for a CSI-RS sent by a certain RRH of the RRHs in the CoMP set, and under the situation that if the radio link failure occurs on the CSI-RS sent by the certain RRH, this RRH is deleted from the RRH in the CoMP set by the deleting unit. Under the situation that the total number of the RRH in the CoMP set which provides service for the device for monitoring a radio link is limited, deleting the RRH with a poor signal quality can enable an RRH which can provide a reference signal with a better quality for the device for monitoring a radio link to be added into this CoMP set in time, so as to provide for the device to use.
