An energy-saving method and device for covering a coincident cell

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides an energy-saving method and an energy-saving device for covering a coincident cell. The method comprises the following steps: periodically acquiring measurement report data of all targets to be energy-saving and macro cells in a heterogeneous network area; determining a first average reference signal receiving power of the target to be energy-saving and a second average reference signal receiving power of the macro cell; determining the strongest adjacent region and the third average reference signal receiving power of the target to be energy-saving; ifthe first average reference signal receiving power and the third average reference signal receiving power meet the preset intensity condition, associating the target to be energy-saving with the corresponding macro cell, and determining a target table to be energy-saving; And if the communication traffic of the to-be-energy-saving target is less than the preset traffic threshold and the to-be-energy-saving target and the macro cell satisfy a preset energy-saving trigger condition, migrating a user in the to-be-energy-saving target to the macro cell, and closing the to-be-energy-saving target.According to the embodiment of the invention, the power consumption of the base station is effectively reduced, the problem of coverage holes is avoided, and the communication service quality is ensured.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of communication technologies, and in particular to an energy-saving method and device for covering overlapping cells. Background technique [0002] Energy conservation, emission reduction, and environmental protection are hot topics in today's society, and the high energy consumption of the telecommunications industry has also attracted great attention from society. With the construction of mobile communication networks, operators' demand for energy consumption continues to increase. Therefore, an effective method of energy saving in the community not only reduces the operating cost of the enterprise, but also reflects social responsibility. At present, operators use heterogeneous network forms such as "macro cell + micro cell" or "macro cell + indoor sub-cell" for coverage in some areas. The macro base station in the macro cell guarantees basic coverage to meet the basic voice and data service...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, due to the difference in signal strength between the macro cell and the micro cell or between the macro cell and the indoor cell, if the micro cell or the indoor cell is directly shut down, coverage holes will be generated, which will easily cause problems such as handover failure, call drop, and disconnection.
