The present invention relates to the field of mobile communication, especially to a method and a GSM System (Global System for Mobile Communications) for realizing a flat mobile communication, and an enhanced base station.
As shown in
Based on the above mentioned network architecture, when the GSM system is providing a voice service for two MSs under two respective BSCs, the brief realization process is as follows. A calling MS initiates a call to a calling BTS, and a calling request is transmitted to a called BTS via a calling BSC, the core network and a called BSC. The called BTS calls a called MS in the coverage of the called BTS, and then, the calling MS and the called MS establish a conversation, and transmit every voice frame through the calling BTS, the calling BSC, the core network, the called BSC and the called BTS. It can be concluded that when the voice service is performed between two MSs under different BSCs, every service data or signaling which is interacted between the two MSs needs to go through the processing of five network element devices, i.e. the calling BTS, the calling BSC, the core network, the called BSC, and the called BTS.

Functional Overview
The basic concept of the present invention is: the enhanced base station independently carries out the functions of a BTS and a BSC in the conventional GSM system, and thus a GSM system including an enhanced base station and a core network is formed. The service data and signaling sent from the MS are only processed by the enhanced base station and the core network. Compared with the twice forwarding of the service data and signaling through the BTS and the BSC in the conventional GSM system, the number of forwarding devices is reduced, thus reducing the time for transmitting the service data and signaling and improving the transmission reliability.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, firstly, an enhanced base station is provided.
The Um interface functional module is used for receiving the service data and signaling sent by an MS, or sending service data and signaling to the MS, that is, providing a Um interface for the MS.
Herein, there are three layers of communication protocols on the Um interface functional module, which are physical layer, data link layer and application layer from bottom to top. In the above, the physical layer provides a transmission channel for a radio link, transmits data by using radio wave as its carrier, and provides logic channels with different functions, including service channel and logic channel, for the high layer. The data link layer provides reliable data between an MS and a BTS by using the LAPDm protocol which is a protocol relating to point movement applications and an LAPD (Link Access Procedure on the D-channel) protocol based on an ISDN (Integrated Service Digital Network). The application layer, including three sub-layers of CM, MM and RR, is mainly responsible for control and management protocols, and arranges the information of user and system control process on designated logical channels based on a certain protocol grouping.
The base station functional module is used for carrying out the wireless channel resource management according to the signaling sent by the MS or under the control of the controller functional module, and also used for controlling the Um interface functional module and the A interface functional module to forward the service data.
In the above, the step of the base station function module carrying out the wireless channel resource management according to the signaling sent by the MS or under the control of the controller functional module is:
allocating and activating a wireless channel for the MS according to a wireless channel resource request sent from the MS or a switching resource preparation command sent from the controller functional module, ordering the MS to access the wireless channel to make the MS access the GSM system, and disconnecting with the MS as well as releasing the wireless channel resources occupied by the MS according to a release command sent from the controller functional module.
In the above, the step of the base station functional module controlling the Um interface functional module and the A interface functional module to forward the service data specifically comprises:
the base station functional module forwards the service data received by the Um interface functional module to the A interface functional module for transmitting, and forwards the service data received by the A interface functional module to the Um interface functional module for transmitting, that is, the Um interface functional module and the A interface functional module can achieve service data interaction via the controller functional module. This solves the problem that in the conventional GSM system, for the impossibility of bypassing the Abis interface, the service data of the Um interface or the A interface can only reach the A interface or the Um interface through the forwarding of the BTS, the Abis interface and the BSC, and further decreases the delay of the service data transmission.
The controller functional module is used for controlling the base station functional module to carry out the wireless channel resource management.
In the above, controlling the base station functional module to carry out the wireless channel resource management includes:
in a switching flow, the controller functional module of a source enhanced base station determines whether it is required to perform a switching according to a measurement report reported by the MS, if it is not required, no switching will be executed; if it is required, it sends a switching command to the core network, and coordinates with the controller functional module of a target base station in controlling the base station functional modules of the source enhanced base station and the target enhanced base station to perform the switching; or,
when a call is ended, the controller functional module forwards a release command sent by the core network to the base station functional module, and the base station functional module releases the original wireless resources occupied by the MS.
Herein, the signaling reported by the MS is sent to the base station functional module by the Um interface functional module after the Um interface functional module receives the signaling, and then sent to the controller functional module by the base station functional module.
The A interface functional module is used for receiving the service data or signaling sent from the core network, or sending service data or signaling to the core network.
Herein, there are three layers of transmission protocols for the service data on the A interface functional module, which are IP Transport Layer, UDP (User Datagram Protocol) Layer, and RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) Layer from bottom to top. In the above, the IP Transport Layer supports the protocol versions of IPV4 and IPV6; the UDP is used for forwarding and transferring IP packets between network element entities, and the UDP layer works by the way of no connection, and therefore it can reduce the overhead of establishing, maintaining and releasing IP connections every time when service data are transferred; the RTP layer provides terminal-to-terminal transferring service with real-time features for service data.
There are five layers of transmission protocols for the signaling on the A interface functional module, which are IP Transport Layer, SCTP (Stream Control Transport Protocol) Layer, M3UA (User Adaption Protocol) Layer, SCCP (Signaling Connection Control Point Protocol) Layer, and BSSAP (Base Station Subsystem Application Protocol) from bottom to top. In the above, the IP Transport Layer supports the protocol versions of IPV4 and IPV6; the SCTP Layer is used for supporting the transmission of messages at the MTP3 part of the signaling in an IP network, and the management of distributed signaling nodes and SCTP transmission connection; the M3UA Layer realizes the transparent transmission of the signaling messages between signaling points, and provides connectionless and connection-oriented services; and the SCCP Layer processes A interface signaling procedures related to calling, mobility management and resource management.
This enhanced base station also comprises:
an inter-base-station interface functional module, which is used to realize the signaling interaction between enhanced base stations; wherein the signaling comprises the resource occupation ratio of the enhanced base station and the information of each cell under the enhanced base station, cell identification number, frequency, and the currently used voice coding and decoding type etc., and thus the resource occupation condition and the related information of the cells of the adjacent enhanced base stations can be acquired in time, which makes it convenient to find out an appropriate target enhanced base station during a switching.
The base station functional module further comprises: a resource management module and a forwarding control module; wherein,
the resource management module is used to allocate and activate wireless channel resources for the MS and establish connection with the MS according to a wireless channel resource request sent from the MS or a switching resource preparation command sent by the controller functional module; and is also used to break the connection with the MS and release the wireless channel resources occupied by the MS according to a release command sent from the controller functional module; and
the forwarding control module is used to control the A interface functional module to send service data sent by the MS to the core network, and control the Um interface functional module to send service data sent by the core network to the MS.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the Um interface functional module, the base station functional module and the A interface functional module carry out the functions of the BTS, and the controller functional module and the A interface functional module carry out the functions of the BSC, i.e., the enhanced base station in the embodiment of the present invention can carry out the functions of the BTS and the BSC, thus the enhanced base station can replace the BTS and the BSC in the conventional the GSM system. Therefore, the number of devices for constituting the GSM system, and the forwarding devices which the service data transmitted between the calling MS and the called MS pass to get to the target terminal are reduced, that is, the flat mobile communication is achieved. Moreover, the time for transmitting the service data is reduced, and the reliability of transmission is improved, thus the problems of low reliability of voice frame transmission and relatively long delay of calling are solved.
