Background
To support and promote the development of industry 4.0, the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) has established a series of standards for TSN (Time Sensitive Networking), which has begun to be applied in the internet of things of industry. 5G (5th Generation Mobile Communication Technology, fifth Generation Mobile Communication Technology) Mobile network for better supporting the application of time-sensitive services, R16 started to introduce a TSN network, integrating the 5G system and the IEEE 802.1TSN network by means of a full-centralized configuration model defined by IEEE Std 802.1 Qcc-2018. The 5G system integrates as a bridge with external networks.
In a 5G mobile network-bridge-TSN implementation scheme, a 5G mobile network interacts with a deterministic network through a TSN AF (Time Sensitive Networking Application Function), and the TSN AF serves as a converter to transmit port allocation information and Qos (Quality of Service) information related to the TSN to the 5G mobile network. In the bridge mode, the state and information related to the 5G mobile network are black boxes for the TSN, and the state of each node in the 5G mobile network is not considered during resource allocation, so that the resource allocation is not reasonable.
In addition, the calculation of the bridge delay by the TSN AF is based on a PDU (Protocol Data Unit) establishment procedure, and when the TSN AF receives 5G system bridge information of a newly established PDU session, a relevant port pair is inferred from a port number of a DS-TT (Device-side TSN translator) ethernet port and a port number of an NW-TT (Network-side TSN translator) ethernet port of the same 5G system bridge, thereby calculating the bridge delay of each port pair. However, transmission in a 5G mobile network has a large uncertainty, and needs to be dynamically adjusted according to the real-time state of the network.

Example embodiments may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the concept of example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The described features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.
Furthermore, the drawings are merely schematic illustrations of the present disclosure and are not necessarily drawn to scale. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar parts, and thus their repetitive description will be omitted. Some of the block diagrams shown in the figures are functional entities and do not necessarily correspond to physically or logically separate entities. These functional entities may be implemented in the form of software, or in one or more hardware modules or integrated circuits, or in different networks and/or processor devices and/or microcontroller devices.
One or more embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a Network system and a system architecture using a 5G system as a TSN bridge, where UE (User Equipment, terminal), RAN (Radio access Network), and UPF (User Plane Function) in fig. 1 are generally referred to as a User Plane Network functional Network element or entity. In the TSN, both the UE and the time-sensitive communication Device side belong to a DS-TT Device side Bridge (Device side of Bridge) that is connected to a time-sensitive communication System (TSN System). The UPF network element comprises a time-sensitive communication network side converter NW-TT. The logical bridge supports providing TSN translation functions in UPF and control plane interoperability between TSN systems and 5G systems. The 5G TSN conversion function is composed of a device-side TSN converter (DS-TT) and a network-side TSN converter (NW-TT). The TSN AF is part of a 5GC (5G Core Network ) and provides a control plane switching function for integrating a 5G system into a TSN Network, for example, interacting with a CNC (client Network Controller). A flow specific to 5G in 5GC and RAN (Radio Access Network), such as a wireless communication link, is hidden from the TSN Network. To achieve transparency to the TSN network and that the 5G system can act as any TSN bridge, the 5G system provides TSN ingress and egress ports via the DS-TT and NW-TT.
An Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) network element mainly responsible for a signaling processing part, such as functions of Access control, Mobility Management, attachment and detachment, network element selection, and the like; a PCF (Policy Control Function) network element mainly supports providing a unified Policy framework to Control network behavior, providing Policy rules to a Control layer network Function, and simultaneously being responsible for acquiring user subscription information related to Policy decision. NEF (Network Exposure Function) Network element: the method mainly supports the safe interaction between the 3GPP network and the third-party application, the NEF can safely expose the network capability and events to the third-party for enhancing or improving the application service quality, and the 3GPP network can also safely acquire related data from the third-party for enhancing the intelligent decision of the network; and the network element supports retrieving the structured data from the unified database or storing the structured data into the unified database. Unified Data Management (UDM), which may be used for Data Management.
The TSN AF is part of the 5GC and provides control plane converter functionality for integration of the 5G system with the TSN network, e.g. interaction with CNC. Standardized and deployment-specific Bridge Management Information is passed transparently between the TSN AF and the NW-TT through BMIC (Bridge Management Information Container). In addition, standardized and deployment-specific port management information is transparently transferred between the TSN AF and the DS-TT and between the TSN AF and the NW-TT through a port management information container.
During the establishment of the PDU session, the UPF will assign an Ethernet port number on the DS-TT for the PDU session. The ethernet port number of the PDU Session on DS-TT shall be reported from UPF to SMF (Session Management Function) and further stored in SMF. The SMF provides the Ethernet port number, MAC address, Ethernet port number and MAC address on the NW-TT of the related PDU session to the TSN AF through PCF (Packet Control Function). For PDU sessions that have reported port numbers to the TSN AF through the SMF, if the session is released, the SMF informs the TSN AF accordingly. When there are multiple network instances in a UPF, each network instance is logically considered independent. For a given PDU session during PDU session establishment, the SMF may indicate to the UPF the network instance corresponding to the N6 interface. The TSN AF is responsible for receiving 5G system bridge information from the 5G system and registering or updating this information to the TSN network. The 5G system maps the configuration information obtained from the TSN network into a corresponding PDU session, forming 5G system QoS information (e.g., 5QI, TSC (Time Sensitive Communication) assistance information) for efficient Time-aware scheduling.
During the PDU session setup, the PCF may provide the following information to the TSN AF:
user plane Node information (5GS user-plane Node information);
TGS Bridge ID (5GS Bridge ID);
UE-DS-TT retention time (Residence time);
port number of DS-TT (port number of the Ethernet port of DS-TT);
the MAC address of the DS-TT port (MAC address of the Ethernet port of DS-TT (i.e. DS-TT port MAC address);
port Management Information and Port number (Port Management Information Container and the related Port number)
A User plane node Management Information Container (User plane node Management Information Container).
In one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, an interactive interface between the TSN AF and the NWDAF is added to solve the problem that the TSN cannot know the mobile network status information. Illustratively, the system architecture involved is shown in fig. 2, which adds eNWDAF (which is an example of NWDAF) and interfaces for interaction between TSN AF and eNWDAF, as compared to the system architecture shown in fig. 1.

The eNDGAF is expanded on the basis of the functions of the NWDAF, and supports real-time measurement and intelligent perception of the use condition of each base station and terminal network resources, so that the TSN AF can acquire the use condition of each base station and terminal network resources from the eNDGAF; and the implementation monitoring and analysis of SLA (Service-Level agent) of end-to-end Qos are also supported, so the TSN AF can also acquire Qos parameter information with higher certainty from the eWDAF. This information provided by the eNWDAF can be used as an aid and reference for TSN AF decision making.
Fig. 5 is a flowchart of a method for reporting deterministic information according to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, and as shown in fig. 5, the method may further include, on the basis of the method shown in fig. 3:
