本申请实施例涉及通信技术领域，尤其涉及一种切换决策的确定方法、装置以及存储介质。The embodiments of the present application relate to the field of communication technologies, and in particular, to a method, device, and storage medium for determining a handover decision.
背景技术Background technique
随着通信技术的快速发展，当用户使用终端设备(user equipment，UE)进行通话时，若用户从一个小区移动到另一个小区，则原来的服务小区有可能无法再给UE提供通话服务。为了保证用户的通话质量，服务小区所在的基站可以控制UE切换到其他小区或网络设备。如此，保证了UE能够继续进行通话业务。With the rapid development of communication technologies, when a user uses a terminal equipment (user equipment, UE) to make a call, if the user moves from one cell to another, the original serving cell may no longer be able to provide call services to the UE. In order to ensure the call quality of the user, the base station where the serving cell is located can control the UE to switch to other cells or network equipment. In this way, it is ensured that the UE can continue the call service.
为了确定UE切换的小区或网络设备，可以使用无线智能控制器(radiointelligent controller，RIC)控制基站提升切换成功率完成小区切换。无线智能控制器能够实现网络设备的部分功能(如(radio resource management，RRM)功能)。RIC可以根据基站上报的测量数据，利用人工智能(artificial intelligence，AI)进行模型训练，进而确定UE切换的小区或网络设备的决策。但是，基站自身还可以确定UE切换的小区或网络设备的决策。如此，RIC做出的决策与基站做出的决策存在冲突的可能。In order to determine the cell or network device to be handed over by the UE, a radio intelligent controller (radiointelligent controller, RIC) may be used to control the base station to increase the handover success rate to complete the cell handover. The wireless intelligent controller can implement some functions of the network device (such as (radio resource management, RRM) function). The RIC can use artificial intelligence (AI) to perform model training according to the measurement data reported by the base station, and then determine the decision of the cell or network device to be handed over by the UE. However, the base station itself can also determine the decision of the cell or network equipment to which the UE is handed over. In this way, the decision made by the RIC may conflict with the decision made by the base station.

为了使本领域普通人员更好地理解本公开的技术方案，下面将结合附图，对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述。In order to enable ordinary persons in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present disclosure, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

It is to be understood that the data so used are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the disclosure described herein can be practiced in sequences other than those illustrated or described herein. The implementations described in the following exemplary examples do not represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with aspects of the embodiments of the present application as recited in the appended claims.
还应当理解的是，术语“包括”指示所描述特征、整体、步骤、操作、元素和/或组件的存在，但并不排除一个或多个其他特征、整体、步骤、操作、元素和/或组件的存在或添加。It should also be understood that the term "comprising" indicates the presence of described features, integers, steps, operations, elements and/or components, but does not exclude one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements and/or The presence or addition of components.
为了提高UE的小区切换的准确性，可以通过RIC确定切换策略。例如，RIC可以通过AI进行模型训练得到控制策略，并下发给网络设备，实现网络设备对UE的小区切换的控制。比如，RIC可以配置有切换策略确定模型，该切换策略确定模型可以基于机器学习算法对UE的测量数据进行训练得到的。其中，测量数据包括UE的服务小区和服务小区的一个或多个相邻小区的信号质量参数(如参考信号接收功率(reference signal receiving power，RSRP)、参考信号接收质量(reference signal receiving quality，RSRQ))。该切换策略确定模型用于确定UE的小区切换决策。该切换策略确定模型的输入是UE的测量数据，输出是UE的小区切换策略。In order to improve the accuracy of the UE's cell handover, the handover strategy can be determined through the RIC. For example, the RIC can use AI to perform model training to obtain a control strategy, and deliver it to the network device to realize the network device's control of the UE's cell handover. For example, the RIC may be configured with a handover policy determination model, and the handover policy determination model may be obtained by training the measurement data of the UE based on a machine learning algorithm. Wherein, the measurement data includes signal quality parameters (such as reference signal receiving power (RSRP), reference signal receiving quality (RSRQ) of the serving cell of the UE and one or more neighboring cells of the serving cell. )). The handover strategy determination model is used to determine the UE's cell handover decision. The input of the handover strategy determination model is the measurement data of the UE, and the output is the cell handover strategy of the UE.
但是，当没有配置RIC或者RIC出现故障情况下，为了保证网络设备的正常工作，网络设备内部保留了相应决策功能。也即，网络设备也可以根据UE的测量数据，确定小区切换测量。所以无线智能控制器(RIC)做出的决策与网络设备做出的决策存在冲突的可能。However, when the RIC is not configured or the RIC fails, in order to ensure the normal operation of the network device, the corresponding decision-making function is reserved inside the network device. That is, the network device may also determine the cell handover measurement according to the measurement data of the UE. Therefore, the decision made by the wireless intelligent controller (RIC) may conflict with the decision made by the network device.
鉴于此，本申请实施例中通过设置定时器来确定是由近实时无线智能控制器做决策还是由网络设备做决策。超时前RIC做出决策，超时后由网络设备做出决策。如此，可以避免决策之间发生冲突。In view of this, in the embodiment of the present application, a timer is set to determine whether the near real-time wireless intelligent controller makes the decision or the network device makes the decision. The RIC makes a decision before the timeout, and the network device makes a decision after the timeout. In this way, conflicts between decisions can be avoided.
下面结合附图对本申请实施例提供的切换决策的确定方法、装置以及存储介质进行详细地描述。The method, device, and storage medium for determining a handover decision provided in the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
如图1所示，为本申请实施例提供的一种通信系统的结构示意图。该通信系统可以包括RIC100、一个或多个网络设备(如网络设备1和网络设备2)、终端设备200。RIC100可以与一个或多个网络设备通信连接。例如，E2接口。As shown in FIG. 1 , it is a schematic structural diagram of a communication system provided by an embodiment of the present application. The communication system may include RIC100 , one or more network devices (such as network device 1 and network device 2 ), and terminal device 200 . RIC 100 may be communicatively coupled to one or more network devices. For example, E2 interface.
其中，RIC100可分为非实时RIC和近实时RIC。非实时RIC(non real time radiointelligent controller，non-RT RIC)支持时间尺度大于1秒的网络功能。近实时RIC(near real time radio intelligent controller，near-RT RIC)支持以10毫秒到1秒的时间尺度运行的函数。Among them, RIC100 can be divided into non-real-time RIC and near-real-time RIC. A non-real time radiointelligent controller (non-RT RIC) supports network functions with a time scale greater than 1 second. A near real time radio intelligent controller (near-RT RIC) supports functions running on time scales from 10 milliseconds to 1 second.
一种示例中，近实时RIC可以配置有xAPP(extended application，xAPP)，该xAPP可以根据网络数据(如RRC状态变化信息、周期测量、预设事件测量)、性能指标(如网络设备的能力指标(如支持接入的UE的数量)、硬件指标(如CPU的大小、内存的大小))等进行决策，得到对应的切换策略。近实时RIC在得到切换策略之后，可以向非实时RIC发送该切换策略，以使得非实时RIC根据该策略执行对应的操作。In one example, the near real-time RIC can be configured with xAPP (extended application, xAPP), and the xAPP can be based on network data (such as RRC state change information, period measurement, preset event measurement), performance indicators (such as network device capability indicators (such as the number of UEs that support access), hardware indicators (such as the size of the CPU, the size of the memory)) and other decisions are made to obtain the corresponding handover strategy. After obtaining the switching policy, the near real-time RIC may send the switching policy to the non-real-time RIC, so that the non-real-time RIC performs corresponding operations according to the policy.
需要说明的是，本申请实施例中，确定切换决策的RIC为近实时RIC。后续在描述本申请实施例提供的方法中的RIC均为近实时RIC。It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the RIC for determining the handover decision is a near real-time RIC. The RICs described later in the method provided by the embodiment of the present application are all near real-time RICs.
具体的，xAPP可以对RRC状态变化信息和/或周期测量进行模型训练，得到一个决策确定模型。该决策确定模型可以用于确定切换策略。该决策确定模型的输入为目标事件测量，输出为切换策略。例如，切换策略可以用于指示UE切换的小区。比如，切换策略可以包括UE切换的小区的名称、标识等。Specifically, xAPP can perform model training on the RRC state change information and/or period measurement to obtain a decision-making model. This decision determination model can be used to determine a handover strategy. The input of the decision determination model is the target event measurement, and the output is the switching strategy. For example, the handover policy may be used to indicate the cell to which the UE is handed over. For example, the handover strategy may include the name and identifier of the cell to which the UE is handed over.
其中，RRC状态变化信息分别为RRC_IDLE、RRC_CONNECTED、RRC_INACTIVE，RRC_IDLE表示UE与网络设备之间未建立RRC连接，RRC_CONNECTED、RRC_INACTIVE表示UE与网络设备之间已建立RRC连接。例如，RRC状态变化信息可以为UE从连接态转为空闲态、UE从连接态转为非活动态、UE从空闲态转为连接态等。Among them, the RRC state change information is RRC_IDLE, RRC_CONNECTED, and RRC_INACTIVE respectively. RRC_IDLE indicates that the RRC connection has not been established between the UE and the network device, and RRC_CONNECTED and RRC_INACTIVE indicate that the RRC connection has been established between the UE and the network device. For example, the RRC state change information may be that the UE changes from the connected state to the idle state, the UE changes from the connected state to the inactive state, the UE changes from the idle state to the connected state, and so on.
周期测量是指在网络设备与UE已经建立连接中，UE测量小区的多个波束(至少一个)，并且对测量结果(功率值)进行平均以导出小区质量。测量报告包括网络配置的小区和波束质量以及非服务小区的数量等。周期测量可以用于报告更准确的测量结果。Periodic measurement means that when the network device and the UE have established a connection, the UE measures multiple beams (at least one) of the cell, and averages the measurement results (power values) to derive the quality of the cell. The measurement report includes the network configured cell and beam quality as well as the number of non-serving cells, etc. Period measurements can be used to report more accurate measurements.
目标事件测量可以用于触发RIC确定切换策略。例如，该目标事件测量为A3事件测量。当然，还可以为其他测量，不予限制。The target event measurement can be used to trigger the RIC to determine the handover strategy. For example, the target event measure is the A3 event measure. Of course, other measurements may also be used without limitation.
图1中的网络设备1和网络设备2主要用于实现终端设备的资源调度、无线资源管理、无线接入控制等功能。具体的，网络设备可以是基站。本申请实施例中，网络设备可以用于根据网络数据确定切换决策。例如，网络设备可以根据RRC状态变化信息、周期测量、预设事件测量中的一个或多个，确定切换决策。其中，终端设备200可以为UE或者移动台(mobilestation，MS)或者移动终端(mobile terminal，MT)等。具体的，终端可以是手机(mobilephone)、平板电脑或带无线收发功能的电脑，还可以是虚拟现实(virtual reality，VR)设备、增强现实(augmented reality，AR)设备、工业控制中的无线终端、无人驾驶中的无线终端、远程医疗中的无线终端、智能电网中的无线终端、智慧城市(smart city)中的无线终端、智能家居、车载终端等。The network device 1 and the network device 2 in FIG. 1 are mainly used to implement functions such as resource scheduling, radio resource management, and radio access control of terminal devices. Specifically, the network device may be a base station. In this embodiment of the present application, the network device may be used to determine a handover decision according to network data. For example, the network device may determine the handover decision according to one or more of RRC state change information, period measurement, and preset event measurement. Wherein, the terminal device 200 may be a UE, a mobile station (mobile station, MS) or a mobile terminal (mobile terminal, MT) and so on. Specifically, the terminal can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, or a computer with a wireless transceiver function, and can also be a virtual reality (VR) device, an augmented reality (augmented reality, AR) device, or a wireless terminal in industrial control. , wireless terminals in unmanned driving, wireless terminals in telemedicine, wireless terminals in smart grids, wireless terminals in smart cities, smart homes, vehicle-mounted terminals, etc.
一种示例中，如图2所示，RIC和E2代理(E2 Agent)、E2端(E2 Termination)可以通过E2彼此发送或接收消息。例如，E2代理可以位于网络设备。E2接口可以根据具体功能确定。其中E2功能可以为与安装在RIC中的特定xApp相对应的功能。位于RIC中的E2端可以将E2报告/插入消息中继到xApp的功能。E2可以为终端管理提供给无线电网络的资源。E2接口用来在网络设备和RIC之间传递信息。In one example, as shown in FIG. 2 , the RIC, the E2 agent (E2 Agent), and the E2 terminal (E2 Termination) can send or receive messages to each other through E2. For example, an E2 proxy can be located on a network device. The E2 interface can be determined according to specific functions. The E2 function may be a function corresponding to a specific xApp installed in the RIC. The E2 side located in the RIC can relay the E2 report/insert message to the xApp function. E2 can manage the resources provided to the radio network for the terminal. The E2 interface is used to transmit information between the network device and the RIC.
切换策略可以为指示UE的小区的切换。例如，切换策略可以包括小区切换策略。The handover strategy may be to instruct the UE to hand over a cell. For example, the handover policy may include a cell handover policy.

For example, the target event measurement may be an A3 event measurement. The first indication information may be used by the RIC or the network device to make a handover decision. For example, the first indication information may include target event measurements.
一种可能的实现方式中，网络设备可以在接收到来自终端设备的一个或多个事件测量之后，检测该一个或多个事件测量是否包括目标测量事件。若包括目标事件测量，则网络设备可以向RIC发送第一指示信息。In a possible implementation manner, after receiving the one or more event measurements from the terminal device, the network device may detect whether the one or more event measurements include the target measurement event. If the target event measurement is included, the network device may send first indication information to the RIC.

一种示例中，当网络设备确定第一信息满足一个或多个事件测量时，网络设备可以执行RIC指示流程，并启动定时器，等待指示切换目标。In an example, when the network device determines that the first information satisfies one or more event measurements, the network device may execute the RIC indication procedure, start a timer, and wait for the handover target to be indicated.
其中，该RIC指示流程可以为网络设备在接收到RIC的订阅信息之后执行的操作。具体的，可以参照下述实施例的描述。Wherein, the RIC indication process may be an operation performed by the network device after receiving the subscription information of the RIC. Specifically, reference may be made to the description of the following embodiments.
S403、若在预设时间段内接收到来自RIC的切换决策，则将接收到的切换决策作为目标切换决策；S403. If a handover decision from the RIC is received within a preset time period, use the received handover decision as a target handover decision;
其中，预设时间段的起始时间为网络设备发送第一指示信息的时间。预设时间段的时长可以根据实际测试值调整，例如10ms。。Wherein, the start time of the preset time period is the time when the network device sends the first indication information. The duration of the preset time period can be adjusted according to the actual test value, for example, 10ms. .
一种示例中，网络设备可以设置定时器，定时器的定时时长为预设时长。当网络设备向RIC发送第一指示信息时，定时器开始工作。In an example, the network device may set a timer, and the timing duration of the timer is a preset duration. When the network device sends the first indication information to the RIC, the timer starts to work.
当在定时时长内接收到来自RIC的第一切换决策，则网络设备可以将第一切换决策作为目标切换决策，并根据该第一切换决策执行对应的切换操作。When receiving the first handover decision from the RIC within the time period, the network device may take the first handover decision as a target handover decision, and perform a corresponding handover operation according to the first handover decision.

Wherein, the communication abnormality between the RIC and the network device includes excessive data transmission delay between the RIC and the network device, bandwidth congestion between the RIC and the network device, and the like.
进一步的，网络设备在确定切换决策之后，该切换决策对终端执行切换。Further, after the network device determines the handover decision, the handover decision performs handover on the terminal.
本申请实施例通过在网络设备上设置一个定时器来完成控制，当网络设备获取到A3事件测量并向近实时无线智能控制器发送RIC指示(INDICATION)消息，报告A3事件测量，同时启动定时器。当RIC接收到A3事件测量，触发RIC的应用(xApp)进行推理，使xApp能够提供策略反馈，RIC提供决策切换目标小区，向网络设备发送RIC控制(CONTROL)请求消息，指示切换目标小区。In the embodiment of the present application, the control is completed by setting a timer on the network device. When the network device obtains the A3 event measurement and sends a RIC indication (INDICATION) message to the near real-time wireless intelligent controller, reports the A3 event measurement, and starts the timer at the same time . When the RIC receives the A3 event measurement, the application (xApp) of the RIC is triggered to perform inference, so that the xApp can provide policy feedback, and the RIC provides a decision to switch the target cell, and sends a RIC control (CONTROL) request message to the network device to instruct the switch target cell.
当网络设备未接收到RIC控制(CONTROL)消息，则网络设备根据网络设备自身的决策来切换目标小区，具体的切换流程为：UE向网络设备上报A3事件测量，网络设备接收到A3事件测量同时启动定时器并向RIC上报A3事件测量，定时器超时网络设备决策切换目标小区，网络设备向UE发送切换重配消息，UE切换重配完成并向网络设备发送切换重配完成消息。When the network device does not receive the RIC control (CONTROL) message, the network device switches the target cell according to the decision of the network device itself. The specific switching process is: the UE reports the A3 event measurement to the network device, and the network device receives the A3 event measurement at the same time Start the timer and report the A3 event measurement to the RIC. When the timer expires, the network device decides to switch the target cell. The network device sends a handover reconfiguration message to the UE. After the handover reconfiguration is completed, the UE sends a handover reconfiguration complete message to the network device.
一些实施例中，结合图1，如图5所示，在上述S404之后，该方法还包括：In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 1, as shown in FIG. 5, after the above S404, the method further includes:
S501、网络设备向RIC发送第一通知消息。相应的，RIC接收来自网络设备的第一通知消息。S501. The network device sends a first notification message to the RIC. Correspondingly, the RIC receives the first notification message from the network device.
其中，第一通知消息用于经过预设时间段接收到RIC(CONTROL)控制请求消息时，网络设备向RIC发送RIC控制失败(CONTROL FAILURE)消息。Wherein, the first notification message is used for the network device to send a RIC control failure (CONTROL FAILURE) message to the RIC when the RIC (CONTROL) control request message is received after a preset time period.
一种可能实现的方式中，经过预设时间段，网络设备接收到RIC控制(CONTROL)流程请求消息网络设备不会由RIC通过RIC控制流程提供的控制策略作为切换决策。并且网络设备在接到RIC发送的切换命令的情况下，网络设备会向RIC发送RIC CONTROL FAILURE消息，用于通知RIC控制失败。In a possible implementation manner, after a preset period of time, the network device will not use the control policy provided by the RIC through the RIC control process as a handover decision upon receiving the RIC control (CONTROL) process request message. And when the network device receives the switching command sent by the RIC, the network device will send a RIC CONTROL FAILURE message to the RIC to notify the RIC of control failure.
基于图5的技术方案，为了避免出现RIC再次确定切换决策，网络设备可以向RIC发送用于通知控制失败的消息。如此，RIC在接收到该消息时，无需再根据第一信息确定切换决策，减少了资源的浪费。Based on the technical solution in FIG. 5 , in order to prevent the RIC from re-determining the handover decision, the network device may send a message to the RIC for notifying the control failure. In this way, when the RIC receives the message, it does not need to determine the handover decision according to the first information, which reduces waste of resources.

其中，RIC的订阅信息与应用的专用消息有关。例如，订阅信息可以用于订阅RRC状态变化信息、周期测量和A3事件测量等信息。Wherein, the subscription information of the RIC is related to the dedicated message of the application. For example, the subscription information may be used to subscribe to information such as RRC state change information, cycle measurement, and A3 event measurement.
基于图6的技术方案，网络设备可以根据RIC的订阅信息，向RIC发送与订阅信息相关的信息。这样，网络设备可以准确的确定需要发送的信息。Based on the technical solution in FIG. 6 , the network device may send information related to the subscription information to the RIC according to the subscription information of the RIC.

一些示例中，网络设备在接收到来自RIC订阅请求之后，可以在获取到与订阅信息相关的信息之后，向RIC发送获取到的信息。In some examples, after receiving the subscription request from the RIC, the network device may, after obtaining the information related to the subscription information, send the obtained information to the RIC.
例如，当网络设备检测到有RRC状态变化信息，则触发基站的RIC指示流程，向RIC报告RRC状态变化信息。For example, when the network device detects RRC state change information, it triggers the RIC indication procedure of the base station, and reports the RRC state change information to the RIC.
又例如，如果网络设备接收到UE的周期测量，则触发基站的RIC指示流程，向RIC报告周期测量。For another example, if the network device receives the period measurement of the UE, it triggers the RIC instruction procedure of the base station, and reports the period measurement to the RIC.
又例如，如果网络设备接收到UE的A3事件测量，则触发网络设备的RIC指示流程，向RIC报告A3测量。For another example, if the network device receives the A3 event measurement of the UE, it triggers the RIC indication procedure of the network device, and reports the A3 measurement to the RIC.
基于图7的技术方案，网络设备可以根据RIC只是流程向RIC发送与订阅信息相关的信息。这样，RIC可以根据接收到的信息更好地制定决策。Based on the technical solution in FIG. 7 , the network device may send information related to subscription information to the RIC according to the RIC process. This way, the RIC can make better decisions based on the information it receives.
一些实施例中，结合图7，如图8所示，该方法还可以包括：In some embodiments, with reference to FIG. 7, as shown in FIG. 8, the method may further include:
S801、在接收来自RIC的订阅请求之前，网络设备与RIC建立通信连接。S801. Before receiving the subscription request from the RIC, the network device establishes a communication connection with the RIC.

The network device provides the RIC service to the RIC through the E2AP process, and the RIC service may be the RIC subscription process, the RIC instruction process, and the RIC control process. The network device initiates the establishment of a dedicated interface between the network device and the RIC and transfers the dedicated configuration information of the network device to the RIC, and the RIC extracts the pre-configuration information transmitted by the network device, such as IP services. The connection between RIC and network equipment is established through the E2 interface. The establishment of E2 is not directly related to special applications. It is initialized by the network equipment, executes the establishment of the basic interface and transfers the dedicated configuration information of the network equipment to the RIC, thereby establishing the communication connection between the network equipment and the RIC. .
基于图8的技术方案，RIC与网络设备建立通信连接，保证了后续RIC与网络设备之间的能够进行信息传输。例如，可以传输测量信息、状态信息、决策信息等。Based on the technical solution in FIG. 8 , the RIC establishes a communication connection with the network device, which ensures subsequent information transmission between the RIC and the network device. For example, measurement information, status information, decision information, etc. may be transmitted.
