METHOD FOR GUARANTEEING CONFORMITY OF CONNECTION INFORMATION AMONG DISTRIBUTED CONTROL PROCESSORS IN CONTROL STATION OF MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for guaranteeing conformity of connection information among distributed control processors in a control station of a mobile communication system is provided to solve a non-conformity of connection information caused due to an error by driving a restoration algorithm. CONSTITUTION: When an SCP(Switch Control Processor) board of a switch controller(221) is instantaneously failed, the switching controller(221) informs an access routing unit(214) of an SCP restart processing starting(411). The access routing unit(214) sets the SCP to an unavailable state and when a connection request message is received from an access controller, the access routing unit(214) rejects it(412). The access routing unit(214) informs the switch controller(221) of receiving an SCP restart processing start message(413). The switch controller(221) requests pre-set connection information from an AIM(ATM Interface Modules) of every ATM interface unit(222)(414). The ATM interface unit(222) extracts pre-set connection information in each AIM on the basis of uni-directional connection(415) and gives the switch controller(221) the pre-set connection information in each AIM(416). The switch controller(221) restores connection information of itself by using the information received from the AIMs of every ATM interface unit(222) and judges whether connection information in the SCP has been completely generated(417). The switch controller(221) is restored to a previous state before restarting and informs the access routing unit(214) of the SCP restart processing completion(418). The access routing unit(214) sets the SCP state to an available state to normally process a connection request message as received(419). The access routing unit(214) informs the switch controller(221) of receipt of the SCP restart processing completion message(420).
