System and method of managing network state in mobile radio communication system
First Claim
1. A network state management system in a mobile radio communication system, comprising:
- a first processor;
a first trunk transmission device connected to the first processor;
a second processor;
a second trunk transmission device connected to the second processor; and
a plurality of trunks connected between the first and second trunk transmission devices, wherein the first and second trunk transmission devices sense and reconstruct link state information of the trunks so that the first and second processors can recognize the reconstructed link state information, and the first and second processors mutually exchange the reconstructed link state information, the link state information indicates a normal status or an abnormal status of the respective trunks, each of the first and second processors evaluate the link state information generated separately by the first and second trunk transmission devices and corresponding to a specific one of the plurality of trunks, and both the first and second processors transition the specific trunk to an idle state, when the link state information generated by either one of the first and second trunk transmission devices and corresponding to the specific trunk indicates an abnormal status.

Abstract
A network state management system and method in a mobile radio communication system capable of preventing the inconsistency of the state information between a plurality of networks, routing defect, abnormal load share function, etc. According to the network state management method, a test packet is transmitted to a remote network through normal trunk links at predetermined intervals, and the trunk, which is identified as an abnormal trunk utilizing information included in the transmitted test packet, is compulsorily transmitted to an abnormal state. Thereafter, it is identified again whether the trunk link once transmitted and classified into the abnormal trunk link is in the normal or abnormal state through a separate test process, and if the trunk link is identified to be abnormal, it is managed as the normal trunk link. The network management state is renewed whenever the test packet for the trunks is transmitted.

13. A network state management method in a mobile radio communication system, comprising:
-
providing a test packet at predetermined intervals and transmitting the test packet mutually between at least two processors;
identifying a link state of trunks for connecting the processors utilizing the test packet, so at least two processors can recognize the identified link state, and at least two processors mutually exchange the identified link state, wherein the link state indicates a normal status or an abnormal status of the respective trunks;
analyzing, with each of the at least two processors, the link state generated at separate points of a specific one of the trunks, and transitioning, with each of the at least two processors, the specific trunk to an idle state when the link state generated at any point of the specific trunk indicates an abnormal status. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 24)
comparing, with each of the at least two processors, the link states generated at the separate points of the specific trunk to identify an inconsistency between the separately generated link states; and
transitioning, with each of the at least two processors, the specific trunk to an idle state when the separately generated link states are inconsistent.
