Technical field
The present invention relates to network communications technology field, relate in particular to a kind of cell-ID positioning method.
Background technology
Existing WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA)) system generally uses CELL-ID (cell ID) to position, and it is applicable to all cellular networks, is divided into following two kinds of methods:
1), CELL-CENTER method: do not need travelling carriage that any location measurement information is provided, also need not change existing network, only need increase simple positioning flow processing and get final product at network side.Positioning principle is: the position and the sub-district of the serving BS that network based UE (subscriber equipment) is current cover positioning mobile station.If the sub-district is omni cell, then the position of UE is to be the center with the sub-district of being inserted in the serving BS, and radius is in the circle of coverage radius of cell; If the sub-district belongs to directional cell, can determine further that then UE is in the scope of certain sector covering; Described directional cell is meant the single subdistrict signal by directional antenna emission, general directional cell schematic diagram as shown in Figure 1, wherein co-frequency cell aerial signal overlapping areas promptly can be adjacent soft handover Lin Qu; And be omni cell by omni-directional antenna transmission;
2), CELL-ID+RTT method: need UE to be in CELL-DCH (dedicated channel) state, and provide UE Rx-Tx time Difference (UE receives and dispatches the time difference) measurement capability, and carry out under the situation of RTT (two-way time) measurement the base station, cover configuration with reference to each sub-district simultaneously, by crossing locating area with the active set cell for the central circular zone by definite one or more of TOA (time of advent), as shown in Figure 2, because this method positioning accuracy than CELL-CENTER method height, therefore claims that this method is the method for enhancement mode CELL-ID.
Described TOA is meant the one-way only propagation time delay of wireless signal on DPCH (physical channel), its instrumentation plan as shown in Figure 3, this TOA is calculated by two measurements: the RTT that the base station provides measures and the Rx-Tx time difference of UE measures, and computing formula is:
TOA=(RTT-UE?Rx-Tx?Time?Difference)/2;
