Embodiment 1

[0067] This embodiment implements a management-based MDT-based downlink throughput measurement method for all services of a terminal in an LTE network, such as Figure 4 shown, including the following steps:

[0068] Step 401, the network management network element (such as OAM, or EM) sends a tracking session activation message to the eNB to activate management-based MDT, and the message carries MDT configuration information, wherein the MDT configuration information includes the MDT measurement type that needs to be performed as downlink throughput measurement , and the specified statistical period t1 used in the measurement, and other parameter configurations, such as the measurement trace reference (Trace Reference), the measurement area scope (area scope) information, etc., and the eNB stores the MDT configuration information after receiving it.

[0069] Step 402, the eNB selects the disconnected UE1 in the connected state, and sends a radio resource control (RRC, Radio R...

Embodiment 2

[0079] This embodiment implements a method for measuring the uplink throughput of all services of a terminal based on management MDT in a 3G High Speed ​​Packet Access (HSPA) network, such as Figure 5 shown, including the following steps:

[0080] Step 501, the network management network element (such as OAM, or EM) sends a tracking session activation message to the RNC to activate management-based MDT, and the message carries MDT configuration information, wherein the MDT configuration information includes the MDT measurement type that needs to be performed as uplink throughput measurement , the specified statistical period t2 used in the measurement, and other parameter configurations, such as the tracking reference TR of the measurement, the area range information of the measurement, etc., and the RNC stores the MDT configuration information after receiving it.

[0081] Step 502, the RNC selects the terminal UE2 in the connected state, and then the RNC starts to periodical...

Embodiment 3

[0088] This embodiment implements a signaling-based MDT method for measuring downlink throughput of terminal services in an LTE network, such as Image 6 shown, including the following steps:

[0089] Step 601, the network management triggers the minimization of the drive test, and sends the MDT configuration information to the HSS through a tracking session activation message; and the HSS sends it to the core network element MME.

[0090] Step 602. The MME selects UE3, which is in the connected state, and sends an MDT configuration message to the eNB where UE3 is located, including the type of MDT measurement to be performed is downlink throughput measurement, the specified statistical period t3 used in the measurement, and other options Parameter configuration, such as the measured tracking reference TR, etc., the eNB stores the MDT configuration information after receiving it.

[0091] Step 603, eNB periodically measures the downlink throughput of some services of UE3, cou...

Abstract

The invention provides a measurement method for throughput of minimization of drive test (MDT), which comprises the following steps: receiving MDT configuration information from a second node by a first node, wherein the MDT configuration information includes MDT measurement quantity and is used for the data throughput measurement; and periodically measuring the transmission data throughput information in an appointed statistics period by the first node and submitting the measuring result. The invention further provides a measuring device for the throughput of minimization of drive test, which adopts the structure that an information receiving unit is used for receiving MDT configuration information from the second node, and the MDT configuration information includes MDT measurement quantity and is used for the data throughput measurement; and a measurement unit is used for periodically measuring the transmission data throughput information in the appointed statistics period by the first node, so as to obtain the measuring result; and a submission unit is used for submitting the measurement result. According to the invention, the real-time performance of service throughput changing with the time and place variation can be obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a measurement method and a measurement node for minimizing the throughput of a drive test (MDT, Minimization of Drive Test) in a mobile communication system. Background technique [0002] With the development of wireless technology and the popularization of wireless communication, wireless networks of different technologies coexist with each other, and the coverage area is also increasing. For operators, the networks and devices that need to be managed are becoming more and more complex. For network operation and maintenance, operators need to spend a lot of manpower and material resources on manual drive testing, and the efficiency is very low. In order to improve this situation, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP, Third Generation Partnership Projects) in Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN, Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network, including base sta...
