根据用户设备的可用能量设置其参数的方法及装置Method and device for setting parameters of user equipment according to available energy

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及一种根据用户设备的可用能量来设置用户设备的工作参数的方法及装置。具体地讲,本发明涉及通过基于用户设备的可用能量,改变用户设备的参数设置,而使可用能量较低的用户设备能够进一步节省能量,延长待机和服务时间的方法和装置。The invention relates to a method and a device for setting the working parameters of user equipment according to the available energy of the user equipment. Specifically, the present invention relates to a method and a device for enabling user equipment with lower available energy to further save energy and prolong standby and service time by changing parameter settings of user equipment based on the available energy of the user equipment.

背景技术Background technique

随着通信技术向移动性、宽带化方向的发展,移动终端的节能问题受到广泛关注。很多通信标准化组织在制定相关标准时都加入了对节能问题的考虑。尤其是,未来移动通信系统的接入网络都将基于IP技术进行数据传输,而IP数据包的突发特性以及传输信道在用户间的共享特性使得到达用户设备的数据是非连续的,因此,如何节省用户设备(userequipment,UE)的能耗显得更加重要。With the development of communication technology in the direction of mobility and broadband, the energy saving of mobile terminals has been widely concerned. Many communication standardization organizations have added energy-saving considerations when formulating relevant standards. In particular, the access network of the future mobile communication system will be based on IP technology for data transmission, and the burst characteristics of IP data packets and the sharing characteristics of transmission channels among users make the data arriving at user equipment discontinuous. Therefore, how to It is more important to save energy consumption of user equipment (UE).

第三代合作伙伴项目(3rd Generation Partnership Project,3GPP)作为移动通信领域的重要组织极大地推动了第三代移动通信技术(TheThird Generation,3G)的标准化进展,制定了一系列包括宽带码分多址接入(Wide Code Division Multiple Access,WCDMA)、高速下行分组接入(High Speed Downlink Packet Access,HSDPA)、高速上行分组接入(High Speed Uplink Packet Access,HSUPA)等在内的通信系统规范。为了应对宽带接入技术的挑战,并满足日益增长的新型业务的需求,3GPP在2004年底启动了3G长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)技术的标准化工作,希望进一步提高频谱效率,改善小区边缘用户的性能,降低系统延迟,为高速移动用户提供更高速率的接入服务等。The 3rd Generation Partnership Project ( 3rd Generation Partnership Project, 3GPP), as an important organization in the field of mobile communication, has greatly promoted the standardization progress of the 3rd generation mobile communication technology (The Third Generation, 3G), and formulated a series of Communication system specifications including Wide Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA), High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA), etc. . In order to meet the challenges of broadband access technology and to meet the growing demand for new services, 3GPP started the standardization of 3G Long Term Evolution (LTE) technology at the end of 2004, hoping to further improve spectrum efficiency and improve cell edge user performance, reduce system delay, and provide higher-speed access services for high-speed mobile users.

在移动通信系统中,由于用户设备和基站之间信息的交互基于双方能量的供给,而对于诸如移动电话,笔记本电脑,个人数字助理(PDA)之类绝大多数由电池供电的移动终端,其能量储备是有限的。另外,由于不同UE进入网络的时间不同,他们剩余的可用能量也会有所差别。在相同的网络条件下,可用能量较低的UE将比可用能量较为充裕的UE提前被迫关机,从而不能继续被网络服务。而从用户的角度来讲,可用能量较低的用户希望能够进一步节省其电量消耗,从而延长其待机时间,直到能够具备充电的条件。因此,有必要考虑UE剩余可用能量的差别,对可用能量较低的UE进行区别于能量充足的UE的操作,从而改善由于能量不足带来的网络服务中断的情况。In the mobile communication system, because the interaction of information between the user equipment and the base station is based on the energy supply of both parties, and for most battery-powered mobile terminals such as mobile phones, notebook computers, and personal digital assistants (PDAs), their Energy reserves are limited. In addition, since different UEs enter the network at different times, their remaining available energy will also vary. Under the same network conditions, UEs with lower available energy will be forced to shut down earlier than UEs with more available energy, so that they cannot continue to be served by the network. From the user's point of view, users with low available energy hope to further save their power consumption, thereby prolonging their standby time until they can meet the charging conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the difference in remaining available energy of UEs, and perform operations on UEs with low available energy different from UEs with sufficient energy, so as to improve the situation of network service interruption caused by insufficient energy.

为了降低能量消耗以延长UE的待机和服务时间,3GPP的标准中采用了非连续接收(Discontinuous Reception,DRX)模式,通过使UE在与基站约定好的特定时间段内监听信道并接收下行业务,可以减少不必要监听信道的时间,降低UE的能量消耗。这种DRX模式同样被LTE所采纳,并在无线资源控制空闲(RRC_IDLE)和无线资源控制连接(RRC_CONNECTED)状态下都可以被应用。例如,在RRC_IDLE状态下,用户以预定的周期间隔性地监听寻呼信道(PCH,Paging CHannel)。网络也只在这些特定的寻呼时刻广播针对该UE的信息。UE在接收到目的地指向自己的寻呼信息之后,醒来准备接入网络并建立连接。如果UE没有接收到目的地指向自己的寻呼信息,则进入睡眠期以节省能量。In order to reduce energy consumption and prolong UE standby and service time, the 3GPP standard adopts the Discontinuous Reception (DRX) mode, which allows the UE to monitor the channel and receive downlink services within a specific period of time agreed with the base station, It can reduce the time of unnecessary channel monitoring and reduce the energy consumption of the UE. This DRX mode is also adopted by LTE, and can be applied in both radio resource control idle (RRC_IDLE) and radio resource control connected (RRC_CONNECTED) states. For example, in the RRC_IDLE state, the user periodically monitors a paging channel (PCH, Paging CHannel) at predetermined intervals. The network also only broadcasts information for that UE at these specific paging occasions. After receiving the paging information destined to itself, the UE wakes up and prepares to access the network and establish a connection. If the UE does not receive paging information destined for itself, it enters a sleep period to save energy.

通过这种非连续接收,UE能够减少监听信道的时间,从而节省能量,延长待机和服务时间。然而,如果指向某个UE的寻呼信息在该UE处于睡眠期内到达,那么网络要等到该UE的下一个寻呼时刻才能够向该UE发送该寻呼信息,由此造成寻呼信息的延迟。因此,非连续接收模式下的睡眠时间和寻呼信息的延迟是互相影响的两个方面,应在二者之间进行折中。考虑到UE剩余的可用能量不同,可以对剩余能量较低的UE设置较长的睡眠时间。虽然这会增加寻呼信息的延迟,但UE因此节省了能量,从而达到延长待机和服务时间的目的。Through this kind of discontinuous reception, the UE can reduce the time of monitoring the channel, thereby saving energy and prolonging the standby and service time. However, if the paging information directed to a certain UE arrives during the sleep period of the UE, the network will not be able to send the paging information to the UE until the next paging moment of the UE, thus causing the paging information to be lost. Delay. Therefore, the sleep time in the discontinuous reception mode and the delay of paging information are two aspects that affect each other, and a compromise should be made between the two. Considering that the remaining available energy of UEs is different, a longer sleep time may be set for UEs with lower remaining energy. Although this will increase the delay of the paging information, the UE thus saves energy, thereby achieving the purpose of extending standby and service time.

另一方面,当UE进入网络以使用相应的服务之前,需要在一个注册区域注册其位置信息。在一个追踪区域(Tracking Area,TA)内,UE可以漫游而不需要执行位置注册的操作。追踪区域的覆盖范围是系统信息量和位置注册次数之间的一个折中产物。追踪区域越大,UE可以在较大的范围内移动而不需要进行位置注册,从而减少能量消耗;而较大的追踪区域由较多数目的小区组成,这样系统需要在这些小区内都要向该UE广播诸如寻呼消息之类的信息。也就是说,指向该UE的寻呼消息要占用多个小区的无线资源。因此,对于剩余能量较低的UE,可以考虑向多个追踪区域进行注册,从而扩大该用户被追踪的范围,减少由于位置注册次数最多而带来的能量消耗,以便延长待机和服务时间。On the other hand, before the UE enters the network to use the corresponding service, it needs to register its location information in a registration area. Within a tracking area (Tracking Area, TA), the UE can roam without performing location registration operations. The coverage of the tracking area is a compromise between the amount of system information and the number of location registrations. The larger the tracking area, the UE can move within a larger range without the need for location registration, thereby reducing energy consumption; and the larger tracking area consists of a larger number of cells, so the system needs to report to the UE in these cells UEs broadcast information such as paging messages. That is to say, the paging message directed to the UE will occupy radio resources of multiple cells. Therefore, for a UE with low remaining energy, it can be considered to register with multiple tracking areas, so as to expand the range of the user being tracked, reduce the energy consumption caused by the most location registration times, and prolong the standby and service time.

具体实施方式Detailed ways

下面参照附图对本发明的实施例进行详细说明,在描述过程中省略了对于本发明来说是不必要的细节和功能,以防止对本发明的理解造成混淆。Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, and unnecessary details and functions for the present invention will be omitted during the description to prevent confusion in the understanding of the present invention.

在无线通信系统中,诸如移动电话,笔记本电脑,个人数字助理(PDA)之类绝大多数由电池供电的用户设备,其能量储备是有限的。对于用户来讲,当可用能量较低时,用户通常希望能够进一步节省其电量消耗,从而延长其待机和服务时间。这种情况下,虽然任意造成寻呼信息的延迟,但是总比因电量不足而被迫中断网络服务要好。因此,需要一种能够尽量延长UE的待机和服务时间的方法,以使用户能够有时间找到充电的条件。为了实现上述目的做出了本发明。In wireless communication systems, most user equipment powered by batteries, such as mobile phones, notebook computers, and personal digital assistants (PDAs), have limited energy reserves. For the user, when the available energy is low, the user usually hopes to further save its power consumption, thereby prolonging its standby and service time. In this case, although the delay of the paging information is caused arbitrarily, it is better than being forced to interrupt the network service due to insufficient power. Therefore, there is a need for a method that can prolong the standby and service time of the UE as much as possible, so that the user can have time to find charging conditions. The present invention has been made to achieve the above objects.

图1是表示根据本发明实施例基于UE的可用电量设置UE工作参数,以延长UE的待机和服务时间的装置的配置图。根据本实施例,如图1所示,在网络侧(eNB:基站)配置有用户设备(UE)能量匹配单元11,参数调整及指示单元12,和发射/接收单元13,以及在用户设备(UE)侧配置有发射/接收单元14,可用能量检测单元15,和参数调整单元16。FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram showing a device for setting UE operating parameters based on the available power of the UE to prolong the standby and service time of the UE according to an embodiment of the present invention. According to this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, a user equipment (UE) energy matching unit 11, a parameter adjustment and indication unit 12, and a transmitting/receiving unit 13 are configured on the network side (eNB: base station), and the user equipment (UE) The UE) side is configured with a transmitting/receiving unit 14, an available energy detecting unit 15, and a parameter adjusting unit 16.

在UE侧,可用能量检测单元15用于检测该UE的可用能量,并将检测的结果通过发射/接收单元14(可以作为第一发射/接收单元)发送给基站。应该指出,可用能量检测单元15可以根据基站指定的预定间隔,或根据自身的剩余能量等级来选择检测可用能量的间隔。作为替换,可用能量检测单元15可以随着可用能量的降低而延长其检测可用能量的间隔,以便进一步减少能量消耗。参数调整单元16根据从发射/接收单元14传送的检测结果来改变UE相应的工作参数,从而改变UE的操作。作为实例,参数调整单元16可以通过延长UE的睡眠时间,缩短激活期,增加寻呼周期,增加测量间隔,减少UE的注册次数等方式来进一步减少UE的能量消耗。发射/接收单元14通过无线接口向基站侧发射和/或从基站侧接收各种信息。在此,测量间隔是对异频小区和不同无线接入技术小区进行测量的间隔。On the UE side, the available energy detection unit 15 is used to detect the available energy of the UE, and send the detection result to the base station through the transmitting/receiving unit 14 (which can be used as the first transmitting/receiving unit). It should be noted that the available energy detection unit 15 may select an interval for detecting available energy according to a predetermined interval specified by the base station, or according to its own remaining energy level. Alternatively, the available energy detection unit 15 may extend the interval at which it detects available energy as the available energy decreases, so as to further reduce energy consumption. The parameter adjustment unit 16 changes corresponding operating parameters of the UE according to the detection result transmitted from the transmitting/receiving unit 14, thereby changing the operation of the UE. As an example, the parameter adjustment unit 16 can further reduce the energy consumption of the UE by prolonging the sleep time of the UE, shortening the activation period, increasing the paging cycle, increasing the measurement interval, and reducing the number of registration times of the UE. The transmitting/receiving unit 14 transmits and/or receives various information to and/or from the base station side through a wireless interface. Here, the measurement interval is the interval for measuring inter-frequency cells and cells of different radio access technologies.

在基站侧,用户能量匹配单元11接收来自UE的可用能量信息,并按照基站侧建立的、与UE可用能量信息对应的关系,将该信息匹配到相应的参数上。参数调整及指示单元12根据用户能量匹配单元11匹配的结果,即,与可用能量信息匹配的各种参数,调整与该UE的可用能量对应的参数,并将该参数通过发射/接收单元13(可以作为第二发射/接收单元)发送给该UE,以及基站能够支持根据用户设备的可用能量进行参数配置或者在需要时发送允许用户设备报告其可用能量的信息。发射/接收单元13通过无线接口向UE侧发射和/或从UE侧接收各种信息。On the base station side, the user energy matching unit 11 receives available energy information from the UE, and matches the information to corresponding parameters according to the relationship established on the base station side and corresponding to the UE available energy information. The parameter adjustment and indication unit 12 adjusts the parameters corresponding to the available energy of the UE according to the matching result of the user energy matching unit 11, that is, various parameters matched with the available energy information, and transmits the parameters through the transmitting/receiving unit 13 ( can be sent to the UE as the second transmitting/receiving unit), and the base station can support parameter configuration according to the available energy of the user equipment or send information allowing the user equipment to report its available energy when needed. The transmitting/receiving unit 13 transmits and/or receives various information to and/or from the UE side through a wireless interface.

图2示出了根据本发明实施例由UE侧了基于UE的可用电量设置UE工作参数的流程图。下面参考图2描述UE侧的操作。在UE侧,UE中包括的可用能量检测单元15检测该UE当前的可用能量(步骤S201)。如果由电源向UE供电,例如,正在对诸如移动电话,笔记本电脑,PDA之类的用户设备充电时,可以假设UE当前的可用能量为无穷大。而当用电池向UE供电时,UE当前的可用能量为电池的剩余能量。作为实例,可以用电池的剩余能量占电池总能量的比例来表示UE当前的可用能量,或者是用电池的可用时间来表示UE当前的可用能量,其中可用时间可以用待机时间来表示。Fig. 2 shows a flow chart of setting UE operating parameters based on the available power of the UE at the UE side according to an embodiment of the present invention. The operation on the UE side is described below with reference to FIG. 2 . On the UE side, the available energy detection unit 15 included in the UE detects the current available energy of the UE (step S201). If the UE is powered by a power source, for example, when charging user equipment such as mobile phones, laptops, PDAs, etc., it can be assumed that the current available energy of the UE is infinite. However, when the battery is used to supply power to the UE, the current available energy of the UE is the remaining energy of the battery. As an example, the current available energy of the UE may be represented by the ratio of the remaining energy of the battery to the total energy of the battery, or the current available energy of the UE may be represented by the available time of the battery, where the available time may be represented by the standby time.

通常,目前的移动终端都可以在显示屏上显示电池的剩余电量。例如,在显示屏上显示还有三分之一的电池电量可用。为了减少UE向基站报告其剩余能量所占用的开销,可以对UE的能量进行分级,使UE只报告其当前的级别。Generally, the current mobile terminals can display the remaining power of the battery on the display screen. For example, one-third of the battery power is available on the display. In order to reduce the overhead occupied by the UE in reporting its remaining energy to the base station, the energy of the UE can be classified so that the UE only reports its current level.

图3a示出了直接表示可用能量的示例,可以用可用能量占总能量的比例来分级。作为实例,可以将可用能量分为四级,利用可用能量占电池总容量的比例来指示可用能量的等级。例如,当可用能量为电池的总容量时,可用能量与电池总容量的比值为1时,可以用两个比特“00”来表示;当可用能量为电池总容量的3/4时,可以用比特“01”来表示可用能量为电池总容量的3/4;当可用能量为电池总容量的1/2时,可以用比特“10”来表示可用能量为电池总容量的1/2;当可用能量下降到总容量的1/4时,用比特“01”来表示可用能量为电池总容量的1/4。应该指出,本发明的能量分级不限于四级,而是可以根据具体的使用情况或环境对可用能量进行分集。相应地,可以采用不同的比特来表示可用能量与电池总容量的比值。此外,还可以用电池的可用待机时间来表示用户电池的可用能量,比如电池可用的待机时间大于一个小时的为第1级,电池可用待机时间在半小时和一小时之内的为第2级,在半小时以内的为第3级,以此类推。这里的用来分级的待机时间的门限值可以由网络来设定。Figure 3a shows an example of direct representation of available energy, which can be graded by the ratio of available energy to total energy. As an example, the available energy can be divided into four levels, and the level of the available energy is indicated by the ratio of the available energy to the total battery capacity. For example, when the available energy is the total capacity of the battery, when the ratio of the available energy to the total capacity of the battery is 1, it can be represented by two bits "00"; when the available energy is 3/4 of the total capacity of the battery, it can be represented by Bit "01" indicates that the available energy is 3/4 of the total battery capacity; when the available energy is 1/2 of the total battery capacity, bit "10" can be used to indicate that the available energy is 1/2 of the total battery capacity; When the available energy drops to 1/4 of the total capacity, the bit "01" is used to indicate that the available energy is 1/4 of the total capacity of the battery. It should be pointed out that the energy classification of the present invention is not limited to four levels, but the available energy can be divided according to the specific use situation or environment. Correspondingly, different bits can be used to represent the ratio of the available energy to the total battery capacity. In addition, the available standby time of the battery can also be used to represent the available energy of the user's battery. For example, if the available battery standby time is greater than one hour, it is the first level, and if the battery's available standby time is within half an hour or less than one hour, it is the second level. , within half an hour is level 3, and so on. Here, the threshold value of the standby time used for grading can be set by the network.

返回图2,在步骤S202,当UE检测到可用能量的级别后进一步检测可用能量是否改变了一个可用能量等级。如果在步骤S202确定可用能量未改变一个等级,流程则转回到步骤S201,该UE继续按照预定间隔检测其可用能量。如果在步骤S202确定可用能量改变了一个等级,该UE则将检测结果,也就是当前的可用能量的等级通过发射/接收单元14发送给基站(步骤S203)。接下来,在步骤S204,在UE把新的检测结果发送给基站之后,UE检测是否通过发射/接收单元14从基站接收到与新的检测结果对应的新的参数配置。在此,对应的参数可以是新的寻呼周期,或者允许接入多个TA的信息(在后面详细说明)。如果UE在步骤S204判断没有从基站接收到新的参数设置,UE不改变自己的参数设置,并返回步骤S201继续基于原来参数设备进行操作。如果UE在步骤S204判断有从基站接收到新的参数设置,那么UE在步骤S205根据新接收到的参数设置改变其操作。此后继续按照新的参数设置检测其可用能量。Returning to FIG. 2, in step S202, after detecting the level of available energy, the UE further detects whether the available energy has changed by an available energy level. If it is determined in step S202 that the available energy has not changed by one level, the flow returns to step S201, and the UE continues to detect its available energy at predetermined intervals. If it is determined in step S202 that the available energy has changed by one level, the UE sends the detection result, that is, the current level of available energy, to the base station through the transmitting/receiving unit 14 (step S203). Next, in step S204, after the UE sends the new detection result to the base station, the UE detects whether a new parameter configuration corresponding to the new detection result is received from the base station through the transmitting/receiving unit 14 . Here, the corresponding parameter may be a new paging cycle, or information about allowing multiple TAs to be accessed (details will be described later). If the UE determines in step S204 that no new parameter setting has been received from the base station, the UE does not change its own parameter setting, and returns to step S201 to continue operating based on the original parameter device. If the UE determines in step S204 that a new parameter setting has been received from the base station, then the UE changes its operation according to the newly received parameter setting in step S205. Afterwards, continue to detect its available energy according to the new parameter settings.

在UE向基站发送当前可用能量的检测结果的步骤203中,为了进一步减少指示检测结果的开销,还可以用1比特来表示UE可用能量的变化,而不用直接表示可用能量。如图3b所示,可以用1比特来表示能量级别的变化。可以假定UE的能量分为N个级别,级别为1的表示可用能量为电池总的可用能量或由电源供电。级别每升高一个级别表示能量下降一部分,级别为N表示UE的能量即将消耗完毕。这种情况下,UE的可用能量每下降一个级别时可把该比特设置为1。反之,如果正在对UE充电,UE的可用能量在不断增加时可以将该比特设置为0,表示用户可用能量恢复到最大值,反之亦然。也就是说,每当UE的可用能量下降一个级别时,UE向基站发送比特为“1”的指示信息,而每当UE的可用能量上升一个级别时,UE向基站发送比特为“0”的指示信息。这样,基站可以基于从UE接收到的可用能量的变化指示信息,根据基站中储存已的该UE的可用能量的级别,将UE的可用能量降低或增加一个级别,由此判断出UE当前所处的可用能量级别。同样,为了减少能量消耗,UE可以在可用能量下降或上升一个级别时才向基站发送可用能量降低或上升指示。In step 203 where the UE sends the detection result of the current available energy to the base station, in order to further reduce the overhead of indicating the detection result, 1 bit may be used to represent the change of the UE's available energy instead of directly representing the available energy. As shown in Figure 3b, 1 bit can be used to represent the change of the energy level. It may be assumed that the energy of the UE is divided into N levels, and the level of 1 indicates that the available energy is the total available energy of the battery or is powered by a power supply. Every time the level is increased by one level, the energy is reduced by a part, and the level is N, which means that the energy of the UE is about to be consumed. In this case, this bit can be set to 1 every time the available energy of the UE drops by one level. Conversely, if the UE is being charged, the bit can be set to 0 when the available energy of the UE is continuously increasing, indicating that the available energy of the user returns to the maximum value, and vice versa. That is to say, whenever the available energy of the UE drops by one level, the UE sends indication information with a bit of "1" to the base station, and whenever the available energy of the UE rises by one level, the UE sends an indication information with a bit of "0" to the base station. Instructions. In this way, the base station can reduce or increase the available energy of the UE by one level according to the available energy level of the UE stored in the base station based on the change indication information of the available energy received from the UE, thereby judging that the UE is currently in available energy level. Similarly, in order to reduce energy consumption, the UE may send an indication that the available energy decreases or increases to the base station when the available energy decreases or increases by one level.

图4示出了根据本发明实施例由基站(eNB)基于UE的可用电量设置UE工作参数的流程图。如图4所示,在步骤S401,基站接收来自UE的信息,并在步骤S402检测是否收到与UE的可用能量有关的信息。与UE的可用能量有关的信息可以是如图3a所示的可用能量级别,也可以是如图3b所示的可用能量级别的变化。如果基站在步骤S402判断未接收到与UE的可用能量有关的信息,流程则返回步骤S401,继续接收来自UE的信息。如果基站在步骤S402判断接收到与UE的可用能量有关的信息,流程则进行到步骤S403,基站根据UE当前的可用能量确定该UE需要更新的工作参数。此后,在步骤S404,基站根据步骤S403的确定结果,调整UE的工作参数,通过发射/接收单元13将新的工作参数发送给该UE。此后,该基站返回步骤S401,继续接收用户信息。Fig. 4 shows a flow chart of setting UE operating parameters by a base station (eNB) based on available power of the UE according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Fig. 4, at step S401, the base station receives information from the UE, and at step S402 detects whether information related to the available energy of the UE is received. The information related to the available energy of the UE may be the available energy level as shown in Figure 3a, or the change of the available energy level as shown in Figure 3b. If the base station judges in step S402 that no information related to the available energy of the UE has been received, the process returns to step S401 and continues to receive information from the UE. If the base station determines in step S402 that information related to the available energy of the UE has been received, the process proceeds to step S403, where the base station determines the operating parameters of the UE that need to be updated according to the current available energy of the UE. Thereafter, in step S404, the base station adjusts the operating parameters of the UE according to the determination result of step S403, and sends the new operating parameters to the UE through the transmitting/receiving unit 13. Thereafter, the base station returns to step S401 to continue receiving user information.

在上述步骤S403中,基站所确定的参数可以包括寻呼周期,测量间隔,或者TA注册的数目等。为了实现参数的重新配置,基站侧需要在接收到的UE可用能量的级别与参数变化因子之间进行匹配。图5示出了基站将UE的可用能量与参数变化因子匹配的一个实例的示意图。下面参考图5描述可用能量与参数变换因子的匹配关系。In the above step S403, the parameters determined by the base station may include a paging cycle, a measurement interval, or the number of TA registrations. In order to realize parameter reconfiguration, the base station side needs to match between the received UE available energy level and the parameter change factor. Fig. 5 shows a schematic diagram of an example in which the base station matches the available energy of the UE with the parameter change factor. The following describes the matching relationship between available energy and parameter conversion factors with reference to FIG. 5 .

对于每个可用能量级别i,在基站侧都有一个与级别i对应的参数变化因子ki。可以将能量为最大可用能量,也就是可用能量级别为1时的参数变化因子设置为1。如果当前更新的参数为对UE的寻呼周期,可以假设系统的寻呼周期为Tp。在考虑UE的可用能量的情况下,可以将可用能量级别为i的UE的寻呼周期可以设置为Tp/ki。作为实例,可以设定ki=1-i/N(其中i≤N,N是自然数)。这种情况下,随着UE可用能量的减少,可用能量的级别i将随之增加,参数变化因子ki=1-i/N则逐渐增大。因此,UE的寻呼周期Tp/ki将不断增大。这样,通过延长UE的睡眠时间来进一步减少其能量消耗。For each available energy level i, there is a parameter change factor ki corresponding to level i at the base station side. The energy may be the maximum available energy, that is, the parameter variation factor when the available energy level is 1 may be set to 1. If the currently updated parameter is the paging cycle for the UE, it may be assumed that the paging cycle of the system is Tp. In consideration of the available energy of the UE, the paging cycle of the UE whose available energy level is i can be set as Tp/ki. As an example, ki=1-i/N (where i≦N, N is a natural number) can be set. In this case, as the available energy of the UE decreases, the level i of the available energy will increase accordingly, and the parameter change factor ki=1-i/N will gradually increase. Therefore, the paging cycle Tp/ki of the UE will continue to increase. In this way, the UE's energy consumption is further reduced by prolonging its sleep time.

类似地,如果更新的参数为测量间隔,也可以采用上述的设置方式,对可用能量较低的UE配置较长的测量间隔,减少UE醒来进行测量的次数。应该指出,本发明不限于上面实例中给出的更新参数,而是可以按照本发明的思想更新可以减小UE的能量消耗的任何参数。Similarly, if the updated parameter is the measurement interval, the above setting method can also be used to configure a longer measurement interval for UEs with lower available energy, so as to reduce the number of times the UE wakes up to perform measurements. It should be pointed out that the present invention is not limited to the update parameters given in the above example, but any parameter that can reduce the energy consumption of the UE can be updated according to the idea of the present invention.

例如,如果更新的参数是UE在TA中注册的数目,那么可以在匹配时将参数变化因子ki设置为i,表示UE可以注册的TA的数目。例如,当UE的可用能量为第i级的时候,可以同时注册i个TA。这种情况下,通过在多个TA内广播该UE的信息,避免了UE在漫游过程中为更新自己的位置信息而经常发送注册信息,从而减少UE的能量消耗。对于这种参数,由于是由基站负责注册位置信息并决定UE可以注册TA的数目,因此不需要基站把更新后的参数再通知给UE,所以可以省去图4中步骤S404。基站可以按照Tp×ki来改变所述用户设备的追踪区域注册数目。在此,Tp表示注册TA的数目。For example, if the updated parameter is the number of TAs that the UE is registered in, then the parameter change factor ki can be set to i when matching, indicating the number of TAs that the UE can register with. For example, when the available energy of the UE is the i-th level, i TAs can be registered at the same time. In this case, by broadcasting the information of the UE in multiple TAs, it is avoided that the UE frequently sends registration information to update its location information during the roaming process, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the UE. For this parameter, since the base station is responsible for registering the location information and determining the number of TAs that the UE can register, there is no need for the base station to notify the UE of the updated parameters, so step S404 in FIG. 4 can be omitted. The base station may change the tracking area registration number of the user equipment according to Tp×ki. Here, Tp represents the number of registered TAs.

图6示出了根据本发明实施例为改变UE的寻呼周期而在基站和UE之间进行的信息交互的流程图。以LTE中的信息交互为例,基站可以在系统信息(System Information)或者追踪区域更新(Tracking Area Update)消息中指示UE报告其当前的可用能量级别的信息。UE在接收到包含有指示自己报告可用能量级别的信息后,在其可用能量的级别发生变化时报告其可用能量的级别(如图3a所示)或者报告可用能量级别的变化(如图3b所示)。这些报告信息可以包含在测量报告中发给基站。基站在接收到来自用户的可用能量的信息之后,根据自己的可用能量信息与参数变化因子的匹配结果为该UE计算新的工作参数。图6中所示为UE计算寻呼周期,并把该更新的寻呼周期通过RRC重配置(RCC RECONFIGURATION)消息发给送UE。可以理解,本发明不限于此,也可以为UE计算能够减小能耗的其它参数。Fig. 6 shows a flowchart of information exchange between a base station and a UE for changing the paging cycle of the UE according to an embodiment of the present invention. Taking the information exchange in LTE as an example, the base station may instruct the UE to report its current available energy level information in a System Information or Tracking Area Update message. After the UE receives the information indicating that it should report the available energy level, it will report its available energy level when its available energy level changes (as shown in Figure 3a) or report the change of the available energy level (as shown in Figure 3b Show). These report information can be included in the measurement report and sent to the base station. After receiving the information of available energy from the user, the base station calculates new working parameters for the UE according to the matching result of its own available energy information and the parameter change factor. As shown in FIG. 6, the UE calculates the paging cycle, and sends the updated paging cycle to the sending UE through an RRC reconfiguration (RCC RECONFIGURATION) message. It can be understood that the present invention is not limited thereto, and other parameters capable of reducing energy consumption may also be calculated for the UE.

另外,也可以通过改变UE注册TA的数目来减少UE的能量消耗。图7示出根据本发明实施例为改变UE注册TA的数目而在基站和UE之间进行的信息交互的流程图。仍以LTE中的信息交互为例,当UE检测到其可用能量变化时,UE可以在TA更新消息中向基站报告其可用能量级别。UE可以采用图3a或3b所示的方式向基站报告其可用能量级别或可用能量的变化。基站在接收到来自UE的可用能量信息后,根据该UE的可用能量级别来判断该UE将与几个TA进行注册,并且将该UE注册到对应的TA。应该指出,为了节省UE的能耗,UE也可以在其可用能量下降或上升到预定的阈值时,向基站报告其可用能量级别或可用能量的变化。基站根据该UE的可用能量级别来判断该UE将与几个TA进行注册,并且将该UE注册到对应的TA。In addition, the energy consumption of the UE can also be reduced by changing the number of TAs registered by the UE. Fig. 7 shows a flow chart of information exchange between a base station and a UE for changing the number of TAs registered by the UE according to an embodiment of the present invention. Still taking the information exchange in LTE as an example, when the UE detects a change in its available energy, the UE can report its available energy level to the base station in a TA update message. The UE may report its available energy level or change of available energy to the base station in the manner shown in FIG. 3a or 3b. After receiving the available energy information from the UE, the base station judges how many TAs the UE will register with according to the available energy level of the UE, and registers the UE with the corresponding TAs. It should be noted that, in order to save energy consumption of the UE, the UE may also report its available energy level or change of the available energy to the base station when its available energy drops or rises to a predetermined threshold. The base station judges how many TAs the UE will register with according to the available energy level of the UE, and registers the UE with the corresponding TAs.

本发明通过根据UE的可用能量来设置UE的工作参数,使得可用能量较低的UE能够通过延长睡眠时间、减少位置注册来进一步的减少能量消耗,从而进一步延长用户,特别是可用能量较低用户的待机和服务时间。The present invention sets the operating parameters of the UE according to the available energy of the UE, so that the UE with low available energy can further reduce the energy consumption by prolonging the sleep time and reducing the location registration, so as to further extend the life of the user, especially the user with low available energy. standby and service time.

至此已经结合优选实施例对本发明进行了描述。本领域技术人员应该理解,在不脱离本发明的精神和范围的情况下,可以进行各种其它的改变、替换和添加。因此,本发明的范围不应该被理解为被局限于上述特定实施例,而应由所附权利要求所限定。So far the invention has been described with reference to the preferred embodiments.
