The application server of business is, it is necessary to obtain the accurate positional information of user, and provide the user neighbouring ground according to positional information
The information on services such as figure information and hotel, because UE is interacted using the IP address that gruping insertion network is distributed with application server, i.e.,
Application request and response message and content are all carried in IP packets, and at this moment application server can directly from IP packets
The IP address of user is obtained in packet header, but possibly cannot obtain the accurate application layer outer logo of user, so result in application
The location-based service business that server cannot be provided using packet Mobile Access Network, so as to limit the range of application of location service.
And if it is desired that with IP address as user's outer logo, because IP address is typically dynamically distributes, it is impossible to using IP address only
One mark user, and determine that the chain of command network element ACF of gruping insertion network is relatively difficult by IP address, therefore technically shortage can
Row.
The main cause for producing above mentioned problem is that existing gruping insertion network location service uses application layer to identify (such as
MSISDN, SIP URI) location service is asked by chain of command network element, and in the scene of above-mentioned lifted Internet service, due to
UE is swapped with application server by user plane (i.e. IP packets), if trusty without carrying in request message
Application layer identify, then application server can only obtain user user plane mark (i.e. IP address, is user described herein
Carry the one kind in mark), therefore lead to not the service for using existing gruping insertion network location service to provide, limit point
The service range of group access network location service, cannot also meet the demand of many Internet services.
