This disclosure claims priority to Chinese patent application CN202210675300.4 filed on Jun. 15, 2022 and entitled “Inter-cell interference coordination method and device, and storage medium”, the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference herein.
This disclosure relates to the technical field of mobile wireless networks, and in particular to an inter-cell interference coordination method, device and computer-readable storage medium.
How to efficiently use spectrum resources has become a research focus in the field of mobile wireless networks, and a series of novel technologies are constantly emerging. Among them, DSS (Dynamic Spectrum Sharing) orchestration is one of the representatives.
DSS orchestration refers to a DSS state in which a cell supports simultaneous deployment of wireless access network services of a plurality of standards on a single spectrum (such as 3G/4G/5G DSS), and a state in which service of only one single standard is provided (such as pure 5G), whereas the real-time state of the cell is dynamically adjusted with changes of real-time proportion of loads of users of each standard. DSS orchestration can be used to on one hand dynamically adapt to the trend of changes of services of different standards, and on the other hand significantly improve the efficiency of spectrum resource usage by eliminating fixed overhead of DSS rate matching.
A primary object of this disclosure is to provide an inter-cell interference coordination method, apparatus, device and computer-readable storage medium.
In a first aspect, this disclosure provides an inter-cell interference coordination method, the method comprises: predicting a target service load of a target cell in the next period according to a historical service load of the target cell in a preset period, and determining a prediction strategy of targets for the target cell in the next period based on the target service load; when there is a high-coherence neighboring cell, obtaining a prediction strategy of neighboring cells for the high-coherence neighboring cell in the next period, and determining a cluster state of the target cell based on the prediction strategy of targets and the prediction strategy of neighboring cells, wherein the high-coherence neighboring cell is a cell that is adjacent to the target cell and has an overlapping area with the target cell; and obtaining a prediction strategy of clusters for the cluster where the target cell is located in the next period, and determining that the strategy to be performed by the target cell in the next period is the prediction strategy of targets or the prediction strategy of clusters based on the cluster state.
In a second aspect, this disclosure further provides an inter-cell interference coordination device, the inter-cell interference coordination device comprises a processor, a memory, and an inter-cell interference coordination program that is stored in the memory and is executable by the processor, and the inter-cell interference coordination program, when executed by the processor, implements the above-mentioned inter-cell interference coordination method.
In a third aspect, this disclosure further provides a computer-readable storage medium, the computer-readable storage medium stores an inter-cell interference coordination program thereon, wherein the inter-cell interference coordination program, when executed by a processor, implements the above-mentioned inter-cell interference coordination method.
The realization of the purpose, functional features and advantages of this disclosure will be further illustrated with reference to the accompanying drawings in conjunction with embodiments.
It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are merely used to illustrate this disclosure and not intended to be limiting.
Since there may be significant difference in the proportion of services of different standards among different cells, it is highly possible that the cell states among neighboring cells cannot be aligned after DSS orchestration is enabled. If co-frequency neighboring cells are in a 4G/5G DSS state while this cell is in a pure 5G state, then the CRS (Cell Reference Signal) of co-frequency neighboring DSS 4G will cause severe interference to the PDSCH (Physical Downlink Shared Channel) of this cell. When the proportion of services of each cell is different, it is not possible to select an appropriate interference coordination strategy, which results in signal difference among cells. Therefore, how to solve the signal difference among centralized cells has become an urgent technical problem that needs to be solved.
The inter-cell interference coordination method involved in embodiments of this disclosure is mainly applied to an inter-cell interference coordination device, the inter-cell interference coordination device can be a PC, a portable computer, a mobile terminal, or other devices with display and processing functions.

An embodiment of this disclosure provides an inter-cell interference coordination method.
Referring to
In this embodiment, the inter-cell interference coordination method comprises steps S10 to S30 as follows.
Step S10: a target service load of a target cell in the next period is predicted according to a historical service load of the target cell in a preset period, and a prediction strategy of targets for the target cell in the next period is determined based on the target service load.
In this embodiment, predicting a service load in the next period is based on a historical service load of the target cell in a preset period. The preset period can be a latest period, three periods, or a customized period. The centralized point divides all of its cells of the specified frequency point and the specified type into one or more clusters according to the overlapping coverage relationship among cells. The specified type refers to a specified standard (for example 4G or 5G wireless access network) and/or a specified cell state (for example a DSS cell, a super cell, etc.). A high-coherence neighboring cell refers to all co-frequency neighboring cells that have an overlapping coverage area with this cell.
The centralized point obtains a list of high-coherence co-frequency cells of the above 8 cells and marks these 8 cells as “to be queried”.
The centralized point generates a cluster “cluster 1” where a target cell is located, adds cell 40001 to the “cluster 1”, and marks it as “queried”; the centralized point adds all high-coherence neighboring cells 40002, 40003 and 40004 of the cell 40001 to the “cluster 1”, and marks these 3 cells as “queried”; and the centralized point adds a high-coherence neighboring cell 40005 of the cell 40004 to the “cluster 1”, and marks it as “queried”.
The high-coherence neighboring cells of all cells in the “cluster 1” are comprised in the “cluster 1”, as a result, the division of the “cluster 1” is completed; the centralized point generates a cluster “cluster 2” where a target cell is located, adds cell 40006 to the “cluster 2” and marks it as “queried”; and the centralized point adds a high-coherence neighboring cell 40007 of the cell 40006 to the “cluster 2”, and marks it as “queried”.
The high-coherence neighboring cells of all cells in the “cluster 2” are comprised in the “cluster 2”, as a result, the division of the “cluster 2” is completed; the centralized point generates a cluster “cluster 3” where a target cell is located, adds cell 40008 to the “cluster 3”, and marks it as “queried”.
The high-coherence neighboring cells of all cells in the “cluster 3” are comprised in the “cluster 3”, as a result, the division of the “cluster 3” is completed.
All 8 cells of the centralized point have been marked as “queried”.
S20: when there is a high-coherence neighboring cell, a prediction strategy of neighboring cells for the high-coherence neighboring cell in the next period is obtained, and a cluster state of the target cell is determined based on the prediction strategy of targets and the prediction strategy of neighboring cells, wherein the high-coherence neighboring cell is a cell that is adjacent to the target cell and has an overlapping area with the target cell.
In this embodiment, the centralized point determines a selectable strategy for each of its clusters in the next period. Since this method adopts periodic adjustment based on a cluster-based centralized inter-cell interference coordination mechanism and the period is set in advance, the next period refers to the most recent period in the future. A selectable strategy in the next period refers to a strategy that is selected by each cell in the next period based on its prediction of loads in the next period and other related information. The load here includes but is not limited to the uplink/downlink PRB utilization rate of logical cells, the number of RRC users, the number of activated users, etc.
The DSS 4G of cells 40004, 40005, 40007 and 40008 predicts a light load in the next period, and the load of their basic coverage cells in the next period is light, too, therefore, the above 4 cells are intended to turn off DSS 4G in the next period and make the entire spectrum resource available to 5G, that is, they enter the pure 5G state. The DSS 4G of cells 40001, 40002, 40003 and 40006 predicts a heavy load in the next period, therefore, they are intended to remain in the 4G/5G DSS state in the next period.
Assuming that we define that if more than 40% of cells in a cluster are intended to be in the 4G/5G DSS state in the next period, then the selectable strategy for the entire cluster in the next period is the 4G/5G DSS state, otherwise it is the pure 5G state. Then the selectable strategy for the “cluster 1” and the “cluster 2” in the next period is the 4G/5G DSS state, and the selectable strategy for the “cluster 3” in the next period is the pure 5G state.
S30: a prediction strategy of clusters for the cluster where a target cell is located in the next period is obtained, and it is determined that the strategy to be performed by the target cell in the next period is the prediction strategy of targets or the prediction strategy of clusters based on the cluster state.
In this embodiment, the centralized point determines the cluster state of all its cells of the specified frequency point and the specified type according to the division of clusters and whether selectable strategies of neighboring cells in the next period are consistently coordinated.
In this embodiment, the centralized point determines the cluster state of all its cells of the specified frequency point and the specified type.

The centralized point adds a high-coherence neighboring cell 40001 of the cell 40003 to the “small cluster 1-1”; all high-coherence neighboring cells of the “potential intra-cluster” cells in the “small cluster 1-1” are comprised in the “small cluster 1-1”, therefore, the generation of the “small cluster 1-1” is completed; the “potential intra-cluster” cells+the “cluster-edge” cells in the “small cluster 1-1” account for 50%, which exceeds the predetermined threshold of 30%, therefore, the mark of cell 40003 in the “small cluster 1-1” is changed to “intra-cluster”, and the mark of cell 40001 is changed to “cluster-edge”.
The centralized point generates a “small cluster 1-2”, and adds the “potential intra-cluster” cell 40005 to the “small cluster 1-2”; the centralized point adds a high-coherence neighboring cell 40004 of the cell 40005 to the “small cluster 1-2”; all high-coherence neighboring cells of the “potential intra-cluster” cells in the “small cluster 1-2” are comprised in the “small cluster 1-2”, therefore, the generation of the “small cluster 1-2” is completed.

There are no “potential intra-cluster” cells in the “cluster 1”, therefore, the unmarked cell 40002 in the “cluster 1” is marked as “outside-the-cluster”; the centralized point selects the “cluster 2” and marks it as “queried”.
There are no “potential intra-cluster” cells or “intra-cluster” cells or “cluster-edge” cells in the “cluster 2”, therefore, cells 40006 and 40007 in the “cluster 2” are marked as “intra-cluster”, and the selectable strategy of these two cells in the next period is changed to the 4G/5G DSS state which is the selectable strategy of the “cluster 2” in the next period.
The centralized point selects the “cluster 3”, marks it as “queried”, and marks cell 40008 as a “potential intra-cluster” cell.
The centralized point generates a “small cluster 1-3”, and adds the “potential intra-cluster” cell 40008 to the “small cluster 1-3”; all high-coherence neighboring cells of “potential intra-cluster” cells in the “small cluster 1-3” are comprised in the “small cluster 1-3”, therefore, the generation of the “small cluster 1-3” is completed; the “potential intra-cluster” cells+the “cluster-edge” cells in the “small cluster 1-3” account for 100%, which exceeds the predetermined threshold of 30%, therefore, the mark of cell 40008 in the “small cluster 1-3” is changed to “intra-cluster”.

The centralized point adds a high-coherence neighboring cell 40001 of the cell 40003 to the “small cluster 1-1”; all high-coherence neighboring cells of the “potential intra-cluster” cells in the “small cluster 1-1” are comprised in the “small cluster 1-1”, therefore, the generation of the “small cluster 1-1” is completed; the “potential intra-cluster” cells+the “cluster-edge” cells in the “small cluster 1-1” account for 50%, which exceeds the predetermined threshold of 30%, therefore, the mark of the cell 40003 in the “small cluster 1-1” is changed to “intra-cluster”, and the mark of cell 40001 is changed to “cluster-edge”.
The centralized point generates the “small cluster 1-2”, and adds the “potential intra-cluster” cell 40005 to the “small cluster 1-2”, the centralized point adds a high-coherence neighboring cell 40004 of the cell 40005 to the “small cluster 1-2”; all high-coherence neighboring cells of the “potential intra-cluster” cells in the “small cluster 1-2” are comprised in the “small cluster 1-2”, therefore, the generation of the “small cluster 1-2” is completed.
The “potential intra-cluster” cells+the “cluster-edge” cells in the “small cluster 1-2” account for 50%, which exceeds the predetermined threshold of 30%, therefore, the mark of the cell 40005 in the “small cluster 1-2” is changed to “intra-cluster”, and the mark of the cell 40004 is changed to “cluster-edge”.
There are no “potential intra-cluster” cells in the “cluster 1”, therefore, the unmarked cell 40002 in the “cluster 1” is marked as “outside-the-cluster”; the centralized point selects the “cluster 2” and marks it as “queried”.
There are no “potential intra-cluster” cells or “intra-cluster” cells or “cluster-edge” cells in the “cluster 2”, therefore, cells 40006 and 40007 in the “cluster 2” are marked as “intra-cluster”, and the selectable strategy of these two cells in the next period is changed to the 4G/5G DSS state which is the selectable strategy of “cluster 2” in the next period.
The centralized point selects the “cluster 3”, marks it as “queried”, and marks cell 40008 as a “potential intra-cluster” cell.
The centralized point generates the “small cluster 3-1”, and adds the “potential intra-cluster” cell 40008 to the “small cluster 3-1”; all high-coherence neighboring cells of the “potential intra-cluster” cells in the “small cluster 3-1” are comprised in the “small cluster 3-1”, therefore, the generation of the “small cluster 3-1” is completed; the “potential intra-cluster” cells+the “cluster-edge” cells in the “small cluster 3-1” account for 100%, which exceeds the predetermined threshold of 30%, therefore, the mark of cell 40008 in the “small cluster 3-1” is changed to “intra-cluster”.
There are no “potential intra-cluster” cells in the “cluster 3”, and all clusters of the centralized point are marked as “queried”.
