一种实现网际协议多媒体子系统中用户注册的方法及系统 技术领域  Method and system for realizing user registration in internet protocol multimedia subsystem
本发明涉及网际协议 ( IP ) 多媒体子系统 (IMS , IP Multimedia Subsystem )领域, 特别涉及一种实现 IMS中用户注册的方法及系统。 发明背景  The present invention relates to the field of Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), and in particular, to a method and system for implementing user registration in IMS. Background of the invention
随着宽带网络的发展, 移动通信将不仅仅局限于传统的语音通信, 结合音频、 视频、 图片和文本等多种媒体类型的多媒体业务将逐渐开展 起来, 通过与呈现(presence )业务, 短消息业务、 网页 ( WEB ) 浏览 业务、 定位业务、 推送(PUSH ) 业务、 文件共享业务等数据业务的结 合, 可满足用户的多种需求。 例如: 消息业务中的即时消息、 聊天室、 多媒体短消息, 视频业务中的娱乐、 多媒体信息、 日常交流, 电子商务 中的产品目录、 搜索引擎、 购物车、 订单管理、 支付, 游戏业务中的单 人游戏、 群组游戏, 定位业务中的寻人、 向导、 报警, 个人助理业务中 的地址簿、 日程表、 书签管理、 文件存储、 事件提醒、 电子邮件等等。  With the development of broadband networks, mobile communication will not only be limited to traditional voice communication, multimedia services combining multiple media types such as audio, video, pictures and text will gradually develop, through and presence services, short messages. Business, web page (WEB) The combination of data services such as browsing service, positioning service, push (PUSH) service, and file sharing service can meet the various needs of users. For example: instant messaging in messaging services, chat rooms, multimedia short messages, entertainment in video services, multimedia information, daily communication, product catalogs in e-commerce, search engines, shopping carts, order management, payments, gaming services Single-player, group games, location-finding, wizards, alarms, address books in the personal assistant business, calendars, bookmark management, file storage, event reminders, emails, and more.
在多种应用的推动下, 第三代合作伙伴计划(3GPP, 3rd Generation Partnership Project )标准组织推出了 IMS架构, 目的是在通信网络中提 供标准化的开放结构来实现多种多样的多媒体应用, 向用户提供更多的 选择和更丰富的感受。  Driven by a variety of applications, the 3GPP (3GPP, 3rd Generation Partnership Project) standards organization has introduced an IMS architecture to provide a standardized open architecture in a communication network to enable a wide range of multimedia applications. Users offer more choices and richer feelings.
图 1示出了 IMS架构示意图。如图 1所示,在 3GPP的 R5 ( Release 5 ) 阶段, 引入了 IP多媒体子系统域, 简称 IMS, IMS叠加在分组交换 网络之上, 由呼叫会话控制功能(CSCF, Call Session Control Function ), 媒体网关控制功能(MGCF, Media Gateway Control Function ) 媒体资 源功能(MRF, Multimedia Resource Function )和归属签约用户服务器 ( HSS, Home Subscriber Server )等功能实体组成。 其中, CSCF根据实 现的不同功能, 又可分为服务 CSCF ( S-CSCF )、 代理 CSCF ( P-CSCF ) 和查询 CSCF ( I-CSCF )三个逻辑实体, S-CSCF是 IMS的业务交换中 心, 用于执行会话控制、 维持会话状态、 管理用户信息、 生成计费信息, 等等; P-CSCF是终端用户接入 IMS的接入点, 用于完成用户注册、 进 行服务质量(QoS )控制和安全管理等等; I-CSCF用于实现路由查找, 如 IMS域内及 IMS域之间的互通,对 S-CSCF的分配进行管理,对外部 网络和其他 IMS域隐藏网络的拓朴结构和配置, 生成计费信息等等。Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram of the IMS architecture. As shown in Figure 1, in the R5 (Release 5) phase of 3GPP, an IP Multimedia Subsystem domain, referred to as IMS, is introduced. The IMS is superimposed on the packet switching network by the Call Session Control Function (CSCF). Media Gateway Control Function (MGCF, Media Gateway Control Function) Media Resource Function (MRF, Multimedia Resource Function) and Home Subscriber Server (HSS, Home Subscriber Server) and other functional entities. Among them, CSCF can be divided into three logical entities: service CSCF (S-CSCF), proxy CSCF (P-CSCF) and query CSCF (I-CSCF) according to different functions implemented. S-CSCF is the service switching center of IMS. For performing session control, maintaining session state, managing user information, generating charging information, and the like; the P-CSCF is an access point for the terminal user to access the IMS, and is used for completing user registration and performing quality of service (QoS) control. And security management, etc.; I-CSCF is used to implement route lookup, such as interworking between IMS domain and IMS domain, manage the allocation of S-CSCF, and hide the topology and configuration of the network from external networks and other IMS domains. , generate billing information, and more.
MGCF 实现控制网关的功能, 用于实现 IMS 网络与其他网络之间的互 通; MRF提供媒体资源, 如收放音、对终端用户之间传输的信息进行编 解码和多媒体会议桥等, MRF 包括: 媒体资源功能控制器 (MRFC, Multimedia Resource Function Controller ) 和媒体资源功能处理器 ( MRFP, Multimedia Resource Function Processor )。 用户归属月良务器 ( HSS )为用户信息数据库, 存储有 IMS网络中用户的签约数据和配置 信息等。 The MGCF implements the function of the control gateway to implement interworking between the IMS network and other networks. The MRF provides media resources, such as receiving and receiving audio, encoding and decoding information transmitted between end users, and a multimedia conference bridge. The MRF includes: A Multimedia Resource Function Controller (MRFC) and a Multimedia Resource Function Processor (MRFP). The user-assigned server (HSS) is a user information database, which stores subscription data and configuration information of users in the IMS network.
由于 IMS的结构做到了与底层承载网络无关, 因此, 3GPP定义的 IMS 架构也可应用于 3GPP 定义的分组域网络之外的其他分组网络之 上,如 3GPP2定义的分组网络、无线局域网( WLA )、下一代网络( NGN ) 等, 实现了与用户终端类型的无关性以及与接入网络类型的无关性, 这 里, 不限制 IMS只应用于与 3GPP相关的网络和应用上, 其他类型的接 入网络和 7 载网络的业务和应用也可通过 IMS架构来实现。  Since the structure of the IMS is independent of the underlying bearer network, the 3GPP defined IMS architecture can also be applied to other packet networks other than the 3GPP defined packet domain network, such as the packet network defined by 3GPP2, and the wireless local area network (WLA). Next-generation network (NGN), etc., achieves independence from user terminal types and independence from access network types. Here, IMS is not restricted to 3GPP-related networks and applications, other types of access. The services and applications of the network and the 7-carrier network can also be implemented through the IMS architecture.
在 IMS中 , 通常使用话发起协议 ( SIP, Session Initiation Protocol ) 作为 IP多媒体会话的信令控制协议。 SIP是由互联网工程任务组( IETF, Internet Engineering Task Force )提出的 IP电话信令协议。正如其名字所 隐含的, SIP 用于发起会话, 能够对多个参与者参加的多媒体会话的建 立和终结进行控制, 并能够对会话属性进行动态调整和修改, 所述会话 属性可包括: 会话带宽要求, 传输的媒体类型如语音、 视频和文本等, 媒体的编解码格式, 对组播和单播的支持等。 SIP 用于提供必要的协议 机制以保证终端系统和代理服务器能够提供以下业务: 1、用户定位; 2、 用户能力; 3、 用户可用性; 4、 呼叫建立; 5、 呼叫处理; 6、 呼叫前转, 包括: 等效 800类型的呼叫、 无应答呼叫前转、 遇忙呼叫前转、 无条件 呼叫前转; 7、 呼叫号码转移, 该号码可是通过任何机制命名的; 8、 个 人移动性, 主要是通过单一的、 与位置无关的地址来到达被叫方, 即使 被叫方改变了用户设备; 9、 终端类型的协商和选择, 呼叫方可选择并 给出到达被叫方的方式, 如通过因特网电话、 移动电话或应答业务等; 10、 终端能力协商; 11、 呼叫方和被叫方鉴权; 12、 不知情和指导式的 呼叫转移; 13、 多播会议的邀请。 In IMS, a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is usually used as a signaling control protocol for an IP multimedia session. SIP is an IP telephony signaling protocol proposed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). As implied by its name, SIP is used to initiate a session and is capable of building multimedia sessions with multiple participants. Controlling and terminating, and dynamically adjusting and modifying session attributes, which may include: session bandwidth requirements, media types transmitted, such as voice, video, and text, media encoding and decoding formats, and multicast and Unicast support, etc. SIP is used to provide the necessary protocol mechanism to ensure that the terminal system and proxy server can provide the following services: 1. User location; 2. User capability; 3. User availability; 4. Call setup; 5. Call processing; 6. Call forwarding , including: equivalent 800 type of call, no answer call forwarding, busy call forwarding, unconditional call forwarding; 7, call number transfer, the number can be named by any mechanism; 8, personal mobility, mainly The called party is reached by a single, location-independent address, even if the called party changes the user equipment; 9. The terminal type negotiation and selection, the calling party can select and give the way to the called party, such as through the Internet. Telephone, mobile phone or answering service, etc.; 10. Terminal capability negotiation; 11. Caller and called party authentication; 12. Uninformed and directed call transfer; 13. Invitation to multicast conference.
以上 SIP所提供的协议机制包括:  The protocol mechanisms provided by SIP above include:
1、 名字翻译和用户定位, 无论被叫方在哪里都能够确保呼叫到达, 执行任何描述信息到定位信息的映射, 确保呼叫或会话的本盾细节被支 持;  1. Name translation and user location, ensuring that the call arrives wherever the called party is, performing any mapping of the description information to the location information, ensuring that the details of the call or session are supported;
2、 特征协商, 不是呼叫的所有方都能够支持相同级别的特征时, 允 许与呼叫有关的组在支持的特征上达成一致, 此处可为多方呼叫;  2. Feature negotiation, when not all parties of the call can support the same level of features, the group related to the call is allowed to agree on the supported features, which can be a multi-party call;
3、 呼叫参与者管理, 呼叫过程中, 参与者能够引入其他用户加入呼 叫, 或取消其他用户的连接, 此外, 用户可被转移或置为呼叫保持; 3. Call participant management. During the call, participants can introduce other users to join the call, or cancel the connection of other users. In addition, the user can be transferred or placed as a call hold;
4、呼叫特征改变,用户应该能够在呼叫过程中更改呼叫特征,例如, 某一呼叫被置为语音呼叫, 但在呼叫过程中, 用户可根据需要开启视频 功能, 也就是说, 一个加入呼叫的第三方为了加入该呼叫可开启不同的 呼叫特征。 4. The call feature changes. The user should be able to change the call feature during the call. For example, a call is placed as a voice call, but during the call, the user can turn on the video function as needed, that is, a call-in call. A third party can open different call features in order to join the call.
其中, IMS归属网络为每个签约了 IMS业务的用户分配一个或多个 私有用户标识 (IMPI ), 用于在注册、 授权、 管理和计费等处理过程中 使用, 可使用网络接入标识(NAI, Network Access Identifier ) 的格式; 每个签约了 IMS业务的用户还具有一个或多个公共用户标识( IMPU ), 用于在与其他 IMS用户进行通信时标识自身。 通常,私有用户标识不对 外公开, 而是将公共用户标识对外公开, 在各类业务的会话过程中使用 公共用户标识。 以下将签约了 IMS业务的用户简称为 IMS用户。 The IMS home network allocates one or more users for each IMS service contract. Private User Identity (IMPI), used in the process of registration, authorization, management, and accounting, can use the format of Network Access Identifier (NAI); each user who has signed an IMS service also has One or more Public User Identities (IMPUs) for identifying themselves when communicating with other IMS users. Generally, the private user identifier is not disclosed to the public, but the public user identifier is publicly disclosed, and the public user identifier is used in the session process of various services. The following users who have contracted the IMS service are referred to as IMS users.
在使用 SIP作为信令控制协议的 IMS网絡中,每个 IMS用户都有一 个或者多个逻辑名称, 该逻辑名称可为公共用户标识, 使用 SEP统一资 源标识( URI )的格式表示, 用于与其他 IMS用户进行通信时标识自身。 同时, 根据 IMS用户当前所在的位置, 每个逻辑名称对应的 IMS用户 还具有一个物理联系地址, 该物理联系地址放于联系地址(Contact )域 中, 用于报文的传送。 IMS用户的逻辑名称是相对固定的, 其他 IMS用 户将通过该逻辑名称与该 IMS用户进行通信;而物理联系地址是动态变 化的, 随着 IMS用户的位置变化而变化, 根据 IMS用户所在承载网络 的不同, 由相应承载网络分配不同的物理联系地址, 网络实体与 IMS用 户之间使用物理联系地址进行通信。  In an IMS network using SIP as a signaling control protocol, each IMS user has one or more logical names, which may be public user identifiers, expressed in a format of a SEP Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), for use with Other IMS users identify themselves when communicating. At the same time, according to the current location of the IMS user, the IMS user corresponding to each logical name also has a physical contact address, which is placed in the Contact field for the transmission of the message. The logical name of the IMS user is relatively fixed, and other IMS users will communicate with the IMS user through the logical name; and the physical contact address is dynamically changed, and changes with the location of the IMS user, according to the bearer network where the IMS user is located. Differently, different physical contact addresses are allocated by the corresponding bearer network, and the physical relationship is communicated between the network entity and the IMS user.
为了能够完成呼叫, 需要通过注册过程将 IMS用户当前的物理联系 地址通知给 IMS 网络, 即用户代理向注册服务器发送携带私有用户标 识、 公共用户标识(即逻辑名称)和物理联系地址的注册(REGISTER ) 请求。 其中, 该物理联系地址放于注册请求的 Contact域中, 这样, IMS 网络就能够获知 IMS用户的物理联系地址; 当其他 IMS用户通过逻辑 名称与该 IMS用户进行通信时, IMS网络就可将相应信息发送至该物理 联系地址。 当 IMS用户从一个 IMS网络移动至另一 IMS网络时 , 需通 过注销过程删除旧的物理联系地址, 并通过新的注册过程将新的物理联 系地址通知给当前 IMS网络。 以上所述的用户代理既可为 IMS用户, 又可为服务器。 以上所述注册服务器可为 IMS 用户归属网络中的 S-CSCF。 In order to be able to complete the call, the registration process is required to notify the IMS network of the current physical contact address of the IMS user, that is, the user agent sends a registration carrying the private user identity, the public user identity (ie, the logical name), and the physical contact address to the registration server (REGISTER). ) Request. The physical contact address is placed in the Contact field of the registration request, so that the IMS network can know the physical contact address of the IMS user; when other IMS users communicate with the IMS user by logical name, the IMS network can respond accordingly. Information is sent to the physical contact address. When an IMS user moves from one IMS network to another, the old physical contact address needs to be deleted through the logout process, and the new physical contact address is notified to the current IMS network through the new registration process. The user agent described above can be an IMS user. It can also be a server. The registration server described above may be an S-CSCF in the home network of the IMS user.
IMS用户在注册时需向 IMS网络提供私有用户标识、公共用户标识 和物理联系地址, 私有用户标识用于 IMS网络对用户进行认证、授权和 计费。 如果 IMS用户通过认证, 则该 IMS用户的公共用户标识和物理 联系地址、以及二者之间的对应关系就可存储在 IMS网络的业务控制功 能实体上; 在 IMS用户与其他 IMS用户进行通信时, IMS网络中的业 务控制功能实体就能够利用公共用户标识和物理联系地址进行相应处 理。  The IMS user needs to provide the private user identity, the public user identity, and the physical contact address to the IMS network when registering. The private user identity is used by the IMS network to authenticate, authorize, and charge the user. If the IMS user is authenticated, the public user identity and the physical contact address of the IMS user, and the corresponding relationship between the two can be stored on the service control function entity of the IMS network; when the IMS user communicates with other IMS users The service control function entity in the IMS network can perform corresponding processing by using the public user identifier and the physical contact address.
依据现有规范的规定,要求 IMS网络必须在注册过程中避免出现重 复注册或者说存储信息不一致的情况。 例如: 当 IMS用户从原 IMS网 络移至新的 IMS网络时, 虽然该 IMS用户已经在新的 IMS网络中进行 了注册,但并没有将物理联系地址等相关注册信息在原 IMS网络中进行 注销,或两个 IMS网络之间的漫游协议参数发生变化导致为漫游用户挺 供服务的条件发生变化。 为满足该要求, 通常的处理是: 当 IMS用户移 动至新的 IMS网络并向 IMS网络中的 S-CSCF发起注册时,该位于 IMS 用户归属网络的 S-CSCF发现具有同一私有用户标识的公共用户标识的 上次注册还未过期, 但新的注册请求中携带的物理联系地址却不同于当 前存储的物理联系地址, 则必须删除当前存储的物理联系地址等相关注 册信息。 此过程是通过 S-CSCF发起 IMS网络侧的注销过程来完成的, 目的是为了避免出现重复注册的情况。 同时, S-CSCF存储新的物理联 系地址等相关注册信息。  According to the provisions of the existing specifications, the IMS network is required to avoid duplicate registration or inconsistent storage information during the registration process. For example: When an IMS user moves from the original IMS network to the new IMS network, although the IMS user has already registered in the new IMS network, the related registration information such as the physical contact address is not logged out in the original IMS network. Or a change in the roaming protocol parameters between the two IMS networks results in a change in the conditions for the roaming user to serve. To meet this requirement, the usual process is: When the IMS user moves to the new IMS network and initiates registration with the S-CSCF in the IMS network, the S-CSCF located in the home network of the IMS user discovers the public with the same private user identity. The last registration of the user ID has not expired, but the physical contact address carried in the new registration request is different from the currently stored physical contact address, and the related registration information such as the currently stored physical contact address must be deleted. This process is completed by the S-CSCF initiating the logout process on the IMS network side, in order to avoid duplicate registration. At the same time, the S-CSCF stores related registration information such as a new physical contact address.
根据以上描述可见,为了避免 IMS用户移动至新的 IMS网络时可能 出现的重复注册,要求 IMS用户归属网络中的 S-CSCF必须注销旧的物 理联系地址而使用新的物理联系地址, 这一规定的处理方式将使得其他 IMS会话出现问题并阐述如下。 As can be seen from the above description, in order to avoid repeated registrations that may occur when an IMS user moves to a new IMS network, the S-CSCF in the home network of the IMS subscriber is required to log out of the old physical contact address and use the new physical contact address. Processing will make other There is a problem with the IMS session and is explained below.
当其他 IMS用户请求与公共用户标识建立会话时, S-CSCF根据公 共用户标识与物理联系地址之间的对应关系, 将相应请求发送至该公共 用户标识对应的物理联系地址上。 由于, IMS网络允许 IMS用户使用同 一公共用户标识注册多个物理联系地址,而且 IMS网络并未限制同一私 有用户标识只与一个物理联系地址相对应。 所以, 两个物理联系地址应 可以对应同一私有用户标识和同一公共用户标识 , 而且在实际应用中也 存在这样的使用需要。 比如: IMS用户的通过移动通信网絡接入的移动 手持设备和通过无线局域网絡(WLAN )接入的笔记本电脑可具有相同 的私有用户标识和公共用户标识,并且可在 IMS网络中注册不同的物理 联系地址。 但是, 按前面所述, 规范中又具有 S-CSCF必须注销旧的物 理联系地址而使用新的物理联系地址这一强制限定, 使得两个物理联系 地址应对应同一私有用户标识和同一公共用户标识的情况根本无法出 现。 因为, 只要 IMS用户使用第二个相关设备发起笫二次注册, 就会导 致使用第一个相关设备发起的第一次注册被 IMS网络注销,并删除第一 次注册的第一个相关设备的物理联系地址。 这样, 当其他 IMS用户请求 与公共用户标识建立会话时, 笫一次注册时的第一个相关设备的物理联 系地址无法接收其它 IMS用户的请求。 也就是说: 对应于同一私有用户 标识和同一公共用户标识的不同的物理联系地址不能同时用于接收 IMS 网络的信息, 使用户同时使用对应于同一私有用户标识和同一公共用户 标识的、 具有不同物理联系地址的多个设备的需求无法满足。 发明内容 有鉴于此,本发明的主要目的在于提供一种实现 IMS中用户注册的 方法及系统, 使得 IMS用户在 IMS网络中的注册过程更为完善、 合理。 才艮据上述目的, 本发明的技术方案是这样实现的: When the other IMS user requests to establish a session with the public user identifier, the S-CSCF sends a corresponding request to the physical contact address corresponding to the public user identifier according to the correspondence between the public user identifier and the physical contact address. Since the IMS network allows IMS users to register multiple physical contact addresses using the same public user identity, and the IMS network does not restrict the same private user identity to only correspond to one physical contact address. Therefore, the two physical contact addresses should correspond to the same private user ID and the same public user ID, and such use needs exist in practical applications. For example: a mobile handset accessed by an IMS user via a mobile communication network and a laptop accessed via a wireless local area network (WLAN) may have the same private user identity and public user identity, and may register different physics in the IMS network. contact address. However, as mentioned above, the specification has a mandatory limitation that the S-CSCF must deregister the old physical contact address and use the new physical contact address, so that the two physical contact addresses should correspond to the same private user ID and the same public user ID. The situation cannot be seen at all. Because, as long as the IMS user initiates the second registration using the second related device, the first registration initiated by the first related device is cancelled by the IMS network, and the first related device of the first registration is deleted. Physical contact address. In this way, when other IMS users request to establish a session with the public user identity, the physical contact address of the first related device at the time of one registration cannot receive the request of other IMS users. That is to say: different physical contact addresses corresponding to the same private user identifier and the same public user identifier cannot be used to receive information of the IMS network at the same time, so that the user uses the same private user identifier and the same public user identifier at the same time, and has different The requirements for multiple devices with physical contact addresses cannot be met. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of this, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide a method and system for implementing user registration in an IMS, so that the registration process of the IMS user in the IMS network is more complete and reasonable. According to the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is achieved as follows:

在现有的用户注册流程中, 注册请求携带的注册信息至少包含用户 标识和物理联系地址, 本发明在注册请求携带的信息中进一步包含用于 标识用户当前使用的用户设备的用户设^言息。 当用户向 IMS发起注册 过程时, 处理包括: 用户发送携带注册信息的注册请求至 IMS注册功能 实体, IMS注册功能实体根据该注册请求确定当前请求注册的用户标识、 物理联系地址和用户设备信息; 在当前请求注册的用户与已注册的用户 具有相同用户标识和不同物理联系地址时, 才艮据当前注册信息中的用户 设备信息确定当前请求注册的用户使用的用户设备是否与已注册的用 户使用的用户设备相同, 如果相同, 则存储当前注册请求中携带的注册 信息并注销已注册的所述相同用户标识对应的注册信息; 否则, 存储当 前注册请求中携带的注册信息并保留已注册的所述相同用户标识对应 的注册信息。  In the existing user registration process, the registration information carried in the registration request includes at least a user identifier and a physical contact address, and the present invention further includes a user identifier for identifying the user equipment currently used by the user in the information carried in the registration request. . When the user initiates the registration process to the IMS, the process includes: the user sends a registration request carrying the registration information to the IMS registration function entity, and the IMS registration function entity determines, according to the registration request, the user identity, the physical contact address, and the user equipment information that are currently requested to be registered; When the user currently requesting registration has the same user ID and different physical contact address as the registered user, the user equipment information in the current registration information is used to determine whether the user equipment currently used by the user requesting registration is used by the registered user. The user equipments are the same. If they are the same, the registration information carried in the current registration request is stored and the registration information corresponding to the registered same user identifier is deregistered; otherwise, the registration information carried in the current registration request is stored and the registered office is retained. The registration information corresponding to the same user identifier is described.
其中, 所述确定当前请求注册的用户与已注册的用户具有相同用户 标识和不同物理联系地址的方法为: 在当前请求注册的用户标识与该 IMS注册功能实体已注册的注册信息中的任一用户标识相同时, 确定已 注册的注册信息中该相同的用户标识对应的已注册的物理联系地址; 当 所确定的已注册的物理联系地址与当前请求注册的物理联系地址不同 时, 确定当前请求注册的用户与已注册的用户具有相同用户标识和不同 物理联系地址。  The method for determining that the user currently requesting registration has the same user identifier and different physical contact address as the registered user is: any one of the user identifier currently registered and the registration information registered by the IMS registration function entity. When the user identifier is the same, the registered physical contact address corresponding to the same user identifier in the registered registration information is determined; when the determined registered physical contact address is different from the physical contact address currently requested to be registered, determining that the current request is registered The user has the same user ID and different physical contact address as the registered user.
另外, 所述根据当前注册信息中的用户设备信息确定当前请求注册 的用户使用的用户设备是否与已注册的用户使用的用户设备相同的方 法为: 确定已注册的注册信息中所确定的已注册的物理联系地址对应的 巳注册的用户设备信息, 判断当前倩求注册的用户设备信息与所确定的 已注册的用户设 ^言息是否相同, 如果相同, 则确定当前请求注册的用 户使用的用户设备与已注册的用户使用的用户设备相同; 否则, 确定当 前请求注册的用户使用的用户设备与已注册的用户使用的用户设备不 同。 In addition, the determining, according to the user equipment information in the current registration information, whether the user equipment used by the user currently requesting registration is the same as the user equipment used by the registered user is: determining that the registered information is registered in the registration information. The user equipment information corresponding to the physical contact address is used to determine whether the user equipment information currently registered is the same as the determined registered user equipment information. If they are the same, the current request for registration is determined. The user equipment used by the user is the same as the user equipment used by the registered user; otherwise, it is determined that the user equipment currently requested to be registered is different from the user equipment used by the registered user.
其中, IMS注册功能实体主要就是至 IMS网络中的 S-CSCF。 所述 注册信息中进一步包含的用于标识用户当前使用的用户设备的用户设 备信息又可称为附加注册信息。 这样, 当 S-CSCF无法根据用户标识和 物理联系地址确定当前注册流程是否由使用相同用户标识的不同用户 设备发起时, 即 S-CSCF确定注册请求中携带的物理联系地址与存储的 对应于当前用户标识的物理联系地址不一致时, 可根据附加注册信息进 一步确定当前注册请求对应的用户设备是否与所存储的当前用户标识 的注册信息对应的用户设备相同。 这样, 使得使用相同用户标识的不同 用户设备的注册成为可能。  The IMS registration function entity is mainly the S-CSCF in the IMS network. The user equipment information further included in the registration information for identifying the user equipment currently used by the user may also be referred to as additional registration information. In this way, when the S-CSCF cannot determine whether the current registration process is initiated by a different user equipment that uses the same user identifier according to the user identifier and the physical contact address, that is, the S-CSCF determines that the physical contact address carried in the registration request and the stored correspondence correspond to the current If the physical contact address of the user identifier is inconsistent, the user equipment corresponding to the current registration request is determined to be the same as the user equipment corresponding to the stored registration information of the current user identifier. In this way, registration of different user devices using the same user identity is made possible.
图 2示出了本发明中 IMS用户注册一较佳实施例流程图,如图 2所 示, IMS用户的注册实现过程包括以下步骤:  FIG. 2 is a flow chart showing a preferred embodiment of the IMS user registration in the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the registration implementation process of the IMS user includes the following steps:
步骤 201〜步驟 202: S-CSCF接收注册请求, 该注册请求中携带私 有用户标识、公共用户标识、物理联系地址和附加注册信息,然后 S-CSCF 判断是否搜索到与该私有用户标识和公共用户标识相 应的注册信息, 如果是, 则执行步骤 204; 否则, 执行步骤 203。 以上所述附加注册信 息可为接入网信息和 /或用户设备标识。  Step 201 to step 202: The S-CSCF receives a registration request, where the registration request carries a private user identifier, a public user identifier, a physical contact address, and additional registration information, and then the S-CSCF determines whether the private user identifier and the public user are searched for. The corresponding registration information is identified, and if yes, step 204 is performed; otherwise, step 203 is performed. The additional registration information described above may be access network information and/or user equipment identification.
步骤 203: S-CSCF执行正常的注册流程,存储相关注册信息, 包括: 私有用户标识、 公共用户标识、 物理联系地址和附加注册信息, 结束当 前处理流程。  Step 203: The S-CSCF performs a normal registration process, and stores related registration information, including: a private user identifier, a public user identifier, a physical contact address, and additional registration information, and ends the current processing flow.
步骤 204: S-CSCF判断注册请求中携带的物理联系地址与搜索到的、 当前存储的注册信息中的物理联系地址是否相同, 如果是, 则执行步骤 205; 否则, 执行步驟 206。 所述搜索到的、 当前存储的注册信息中的物 理联系地址即为对应于所述私有用户标识和公共用户标识的物理联系 地址。 Step 204: The S-CSCF determines whether the physical contact address carried in the registration request is the same as the physical contact address in the searched, currently stored registration information. If yes, step 205 is performed; otherwise, step 206 is performed. The searched, currently stored registration information The contact address is the physical contact address corresponding to the private user ID and the public user ID.
步骤 205: S-CSCF执行正常的重注册流程, 存储相关注册信息, 包 括: 私有用户标识、 公共用户标识、 物理联系地址和附加注册信息, 结 束当前处理流程。  Step 205: The S-CSCF performs a normal re-registration process, and stores related registration information, including: a private user identifier, a public user identifier, a physical contact address, and additional registration information, and ends the current processing flow.
步骤 206: S-CSCF判断注册请求中携带的附加注册信息与搜索到的、 当前存储的注册信息中的附加注册信息是否相同, 如果是, 则执行步骤 207; 否则, 执行步驟 208。 所迷搜索到的、 当前存储的注册信息中的附 加注册信息即为对应于所述私有用户标识和公共用户标识的附加注册 Step 206: The S-CSCF determines whether the additional registration information carried in the registration request is the same as the additional registration information in the searched, currently stored registration information. If yes, step 207 is performed; otherwise, step 208 is performed. The additional registration information in the currently stored registration information that is searched for is the additional registration corresponding to the private user identification and the public user identification.
^息。 ^ Interest.
步骤 207: S-CSCF存储新的注册信息, 包括: 新的私有用户标识、 公共用户标识、 物理联系地址和附加注册信息, 并注销原有的注册信息 (即搜索到的注册信息), 包括: 原有的私有用户标识、 公共用户标识、 物理联系地址和附加注册信息, 结束当前处理流程。  Step 207: The S-CSCF stores new registration information, including: a new private user identifier, a public user identifier, a physical contact address, and additional registration information, and cancels the original registration information (that is, the searched registration information), including: The original private user ID, public user ID, physical contact address, and additional registration information complete the current processing flow.
步骤 208: S-CSCF存储新的注册信息, 包括: 新的私有用户标识、 公共用户标识、 物理联系地址和附加注册信息, 并保留原有的注册信息 即搜索到的注册信息, 包括: 原有的私有用户标识、 公共用户标识、 物 理联系地址和附加注册信息。  Step 208: The S-CSCF stores new registration information, including: a new private user identifier, a public user identifier, a physical contact address, and additional registration information, and retains the original registration information, that is, the searched registration information, including: Private user ID, public user ID, physical contact address, and additional registration information.
如果每个用户设备只能支持一种接入方式, 也就是说用户设备是一 个单模终端, 则用户设备就能够通过接入网信息进行区分, 因此所述附 加注册信息可以为接入网信息, S- CSCF可通过将注册请求中的接入网 信息与搜索到的、 当前存储的接入网信息进行对比, 来确定当前注册请 求是否为使用相同用户标识的不同用户设备发起的注册流程。 此时, 步 驟 206所述判断为: 判断注册请求中携带的接入网信息(即新接入网信 息)与搜索到的、 当前存储的注册信息中的接入网信息(即旧接入网信 息)是否相同, 如果新旧接入网信恩不同, 即新旧接入方式不同, 则表 明当前注册流程是由使用相同用户标识的不同用户设备发起的, S-CSCF 将存储新的注册信息并保留原有的注册信息; 如果新旧接入网信息相 同, 即新旧接入方式相同, 则表明当前注册流程是由使用相同用户标识 的相同用户设备发起的, S-CSCF存储新的注册信息而注销原有的注册 信息。 以上所述接入网信息可为 P-Access-Network-Info。 If each user equipment can only support one access mode, that is, the user equipment is a single-mode terminal, the user equipment can distinguish by access network information, so the additional registration information can be access network information. The S-CSCF may determine whether the current registration request is a registration process initiated by a different user equipment that uses the same user identifier by comparing the access network information in the registration request with the searched and currently stored access network information. At this time, the determination in step 206 is: determining the access network information (ie, the new access network information) carried in the registration request and the access network information in the searched, currently stored registration information (ie, the old access network) Letter If the old and new access networks are different, that is, the old and new access modes are different, it indicates that the current registration process is initiated by different user devices using the same user ID, and the S-CSCF will store the new registration information and keep it. The original registration information; if the old and new access network information is the same, that is, the old and new access methods are the same, it indicates that the current registration process is initiated by the same user equipment using the same user identifier, and the S-CSCF stores the new registration information and cancels the original Some registration information. The access network information described above may be P-Access-Network-Info.
如果用户设备可同时支持多种接入方式, 即用户设备为多模终端, 就无法仅通过接入网信息来区分用户设备了, 因此所述附加注册信息可 以为能够唯一标识用户设备的用户设备标识。 这样, S-CSCF可通过将 注册请求中的用户设备标识与搜索到的、 当前存储的用户设备标识进行 对比 , 来确定当前注册请求是否为使用相同用户标识的不同用户设备发 起的注册流程。 此时, 步驟 206所述判断为: 判断注册请求中携带的用 户设备标识(即新用户设备标识)与搜索到的、 当前存储的主册信息中 的用户设备标识(即旧用户设备标识)是否相同, 如果新旧用户设备标 识不同, 则表明当前注册流程是由使用相同用户标识的不同用户设备发 起的, S-CSCF将存储新的注册信息并保留原有的注册信息; 如果新旧 用户设备标识相同, 则表明当前注册流程是由使用相同用户标识的相同 用户设备发起的, S-CSCF将存储新的注册信息而注销原有的注册信息。  If the user equipment can support multiple access modes at the same time, that is, the user equipment is a multi-mode terminal, the user equipment cannot be distinguished only by the access network information. Therefore, the additional registration information may be a user equipment that can uniquely identify the user equipment. Logo. In this way, the S-CSCF can determine whether the current registration request is a registration process initiated by different user equipments using the same user identifier by comparing the user equipment identifier in the registration request with the searched, currently stored user equipment identifier. At this time, the determination in step 206 is: determining whether the user equipment identifier (ie, the new user equipment identifier) carried in the registration request and the searched user equipment identifier (ie, the old user equipment identifier) in the currently stored main volume information are Similarly, if the old and new user equipment identifiers are different, it indicates that the current registration process is initiated by different user equipments that use the same user identifier, and the S-CSCF will store the new registration information and retain the original registration information; if the old and new user equipment identifiers are the same , indicating that the current registration process is initiated by the same user equipment using the same user identifier, and the S-CSCF will store the new registration information and cancel the original registration information.
另外, 考虑后向兼容性, 即: 考虑 IMS网絡中的一部分用户设备能 够将用户设备标识发送给 IMS网络、而另一部分用户设备无法将用户设 备标识发送给 IMS网絡的这种情况, S-CSCF可将注册请求中不携带设 备标识的用户设备视为一种缺省的用户设备标识, 即注册请求中不携带 用户设备标识也标识了一种用户设备。 如果注册请求中携带了用户设备 标识, 而 IMS网络中存储的注册信息中没有用户设备标识, 则 S-CSCF 将当前注册流程视为是由使用相同用户标识的不同用户设备发起的, S-CSCF将存储新的注册信息并保留原有的注册信息; 反之亦然。 如果 新旧注册信息中都未携带用户设备标识, 则 S-CSCF将当前注册流程视 为是由使用相同用户标识的相同用户设备发起的, S-CSCF将存储新的 相关注册信息, 而注销原有的注册信息。 In addition, consider backward compatibility, that is, consider that a part of the user equipment in the IMS network can send the user equipment identity to the IMS network, and another part of the user equipment cannot send the user equipment identity to the IMS network, S-CSCF The user equipment that does not carry the device identifier in the registration request may be regarded as a default user equipment identifier, that is, the user equipment identifier is not carried in the registration request, and a user equipment is also identified. If the user equipment identifier is carried in the registration request, and the user equipment identifier is not included in the registration information stored in the IMS network, the S-CSCF considers the current registration process to be initiated by different user equipments using the same user identifier. The S-CSCF will store the new registration information and retain the original registration information; vice versa. If the user equipment identifier is not carried in the new and old registration information, the S-CSCF regards the current registration process as being initiated by the same user equipment using the same user identifier, and the S-CSCF stores the new related registration information and cancels the original registration information. Registration information.
本发明所述用户设备标识可以使用能够唯一标识用户设备的媒体访 问控制(MAC )地址。 考虑到不同接入网络中对用户设备标识和命名可 能是不一样的, 因此, 可先确定用户设备接入到 IMS网络中使用的接入 网类型, 在此基础上再进一步确定用户设备标识, 即: 先根据接入网信 息, 将使用不同接入方式的用户设备加以区分, 如果接入网信息相同, 仍无法确定当前注册流程是否由使用相同用户标识的不同用户设备发 起的, 则可以进一步根据用户设备标识来判断当前注册流程是由使用相 同用户标识的不同用户设备还是相同用户设备发起的。 其中, 通过 GSM/GPRS/WCDMA方式接入的用户设备的用户设备标识就是国际移 动签约用户标识 ( IMEI, International Mobile Subscriber Identity ); 通过 xDSL/WLAN接入的用户设备的用户设备标识可以是 MAC地址; 使用 cdma2000接入的用户设备的用户设备标识就是移动设备标识( MEID, Mobile Equipment Identifier ); 还有一些接入网络可能还没有定义用户设 备标识等相关信息, 那么为了满足未来的需求, 也可为这些接入网络定 义用户设备标识等相关信息, 但必须要保证在所有使用这种接入技术的 网络中能够唯一标识一个用户设备。  The user equipment identity of the present invention may use a Media Access Control (MAC) address that uniquely identifies the user equipment. Considering that the user equipment identification and naming may be different in different access networks, the type of the access network used by the user equipment to access the IMS network may be determined first, and then the user equipment identifier is further determined. That is, the user equipments of different access modes are differentiated according to the access network information. If the access network information is the same, it is still impossible to determine whether the current registration process is initiated by different user equipments using the same user identifier, and then further It is determined according to the user equipment identifier that the current registration process is initiated by different user equipments that use the same user identifier or the same user equipment. The user equipment identifier of the user equipment accessed by the GSM/GPRS/WCDMA method is an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMEI), and the user equipment identifier of the user equipment accessed through the xDSL/WLAN may be a MAC address. The user equipment identifier of the user equipment accessed by cdma2000 is the Mobile Equipment Identifier (MEID); and some access networks may not yet define related information such as the user equipment identifier, so in order to meet future needs, The user equipment identification and other related information are defined for these access networks, but it is necessary to ensure that one user equipment can be uniquely identified in all networks using such access technologies.
基于上段所述确定当前注册流程是否由使用相同用户标识的不同用 户设备发起的方法, 本发明还提出了另一较佳实施例。 图 3示出了本发 明中 IMS用户注册的另一较佳实施例流程图。 如图 3所示, 具体处理步 驟包括:  The present invention also proposes another preferred embodiment based on the method of determining whether the current registration process is initiated by a different user device using the same user identity as described in the previous paragraph.

步骤 304: S-CSCF判断注册请求中携带的物理联系地址与搜索到的、 当前存储的注册信息中的物理联系地址是否相同, 如果是, 则执行步骤 305; 否则, 执行步骤 306。 所述搜索到的、 当前存储的注册信息中的物 理联系地址即为对应于所述私有用户标识和公共用户标识的物理联系 地址。 '  Step 304: The S-CSCF determines whether the physical contact address carried in the registration request is the same as the physical contact address in the searched, currently stored registration information. If yes, step 305 is performed; otherwise, step 306 is performed. The physical contact address in the searched, currently stored registration information is a physical contact address corresponding to the private user identifier and the public user identifier. '

If yes, step 307 is performed; Otherwise, go to step 309. The access network information in the searched, currently stored registration information is access network information corresponding to the private user identifier and the public user identifier.

If yes, step 308 is performed; otherwise, step 309 is performed.

为实现上述实施例流程, 要在使用 SIP作为信令控制协议的 IMS网 络中引入接入网信息和 /或用户设备标识的概念, 即: 通过 SIP消息来承 载用户设备标识和 /或接入网信息。 本文所述用户设备也可称为终端设 备。以下将详细阐述通过 SIP消息承载用户设备标识和 /或接入网信息的 各种方法。  In order to implement the foregoing embodiment, the concept of the access network information and/or the user equipment identifier is introduced in the IMS network using the SIP as the signaling control protocol, that is, the user equipment identifier and/or the access network are carried by the SIP message. information. The user equipment described herein may also be referred to as a terminal device. Various methods of carrying user equipment identity and/or access network information over SIP messages are set forth in detail below.
一、 通过 SIP消息承载接入网信息的方法, 由于现有的 SIP消息中 就存在用于携带接入网信息的信息域, 本发明可使用该现有的信息域来 携带接入网信息, 如以下消息格式所示:  The method for carrying the access network information by using the SIP message, because the existing SIP message has an information field for carrying the access network information, the present invention can use the existing information domain to carry the access network information. As shown in the following message format:
接入网信息 = Access-Network-Info": 接入网络规范  Access Network Information = Access-Network-Info": Access Network Specification
接入网络规范 =接入类型 * ( SEMI接入信息)  Access Network Specification = Access Type * (SEMI Access Information)
接入类型 = "IEEE-802.11a" / MIEEE-802.11b" / "3GPP-GERAN" I Access Type = "IEEE-802.11a" / M IEEE-802.11b" / "3GPP-GERAN" I
"3GPP-UTRAN-FDD" / "3GPP-UTRAN-TDD" /  "3GPP-UTRAN-FDD" / "3GPP-UTRAN-TDD" /
"3GPP-CDMA2000" / token  "3GPP-CDMA2000" / token
设备标识 = "device-identifier" (被引用的字符串)  Device ID = "device-identifier" (referenced string)
接入信息 = 3GPP小区全局标识 /3GPP UMTS接入网络小区标识 /扩 展接入信息  Access information = 3GPP cell global identity / 3GPP UMTS access network cell identity / extended access information
其中, 3GPP小区全局标识 = "cgi-3gpp" ( token/被引用的字符串), 3GPP UMTS接入网络小区标识 = "utran-cell-id-3gpp" ( token I被引用的 字符串), 扩展接入信息 =处理过程中产生的值, token为令牌或标记的 意思。 Where 3GPP cell global identifier = "cgi-3gpp" (token/referenced string), 3GPP UMTS access network cell identity = "utran-cell-id-3gpp" (token string referenced by token I), extended access information = value generated during processing, token is the meaning of token or token.
基于上述中文表述的接入网信息的消息格式, 如下所示为一英文表 述的消息格式实例:  The message format of the access network information based on the above Chinese expression is as follows: an example of a message format expressed in English:
P-Access-Network-Info="P-Access-Network-Info" HCOLON  P-Access-Network-Info="P-Access-Network-Info" HCOLON
access-net-spec  Access-net-spec
access-net-spec=access-type * ( SEMI access-info )  Access-net-spec=access-type * ( SEMI access-info )
access-type="IEEE-802.11a" / "IEEE-802.11b" I "3GPP-GERAN" I  Access-type="IEEE-802.11a" / "IEEE-802.11b" I "3GPP-GERAN" I
"3GPP-UTRAN-FDD" I "3GPP-UTRAN-TDD" /  "3GPP-UTRAN-FDD" I "3GPP-UTRAN-TDD" /
"3GPP-CDMA2000" I token  "3GPP-CDMA2000" I token
device identifier= " device-identifier" EQUAL ( quoted-string )  Device identifier= " device-identifier" EQUAL ( quoted-string )
access-info=cgi-3gpp I utran-cell-id-3gpp I  Access-info=cgi-3gpp I utran-cell-id-3gpp I
extension-access-info  Extension-access-info
其中 , cgi-3gpp="cgi-3gpp" EQUAL ( token I quoted-string ) , utran-cell-id-3gpp="utran-cell-id-3gpp" EQUAL ( token I quoted-string ), extension-access-info=gen-value。 由于本发明采用现有 SIP消息的信息域 来携带接入网信息, 所以本文就不再对现有 SIP消息携带接入网信息的 各种消息格式加以详细描述, 但均在本发明的保护范围之内。  Among them, cgi-3gpp="cgi-3gpp" EQUAL ( token I quoted-string ) , utran-cell-id-3gpp="utran-cell-id-3gpp" EQUAL ( token I quoted-string ), extension-access- Info=gen-value. Since the present invention uses the information domain of the existing SIP message to carry the access network information, the various message formats in which the existing SIP message carries the access network information are not described in detail herein, but are all in the protection scope of the present invention. within.
其中, 用户设备标识可放在接入类型之下, 使用时根据接入类型确 定具体的用户设备标识。 例如: 如果接入类型是" IEEE-802.11a"或 "IEEE-802.11bM , 则用户设备标识可为 MAC 地址; 如果接入类型是 "3GPP-GERAN"或 "3GPP-UTRAN-FDD"或 "3GPP-UTRAN-TDD" , 则用 户设备标识为 IMEI; 如果接入类型是" 3GPP-CDMA2000", 则用户设备 标识为 MEID。 The user equipment identifier may be placed under the access type, and the specific user equipment identifier is determined according to the access type when used. For example: If the access type is "IEEE-802.11a" or "IEEE-802.11b M , the user equipment identity can be a MAC address; if the access type is "3GPP-GERAN" or "3GPP-UTRAN-FDD" or "3GPP-UTRAN-TDD", the user equipment identifier is IMEI; if the access type is "3GPP-CDMA2000", the user equipment identifier is MEID.
由于用户设备标识对用户和运营商来说非常重要, 因此在应用时要 确保用户设备标识的安全性, IMS网络的安全机制能够确保这一点。 具 体应用时,用户设备标识可作为接入网信息的一部分,在用户设备向 IMS 网络提供接入网信息时一并提供。 IMS网络中负责处理业务的功能实体 可使用用户设备标识,有时还会结合其他信息,来辅助业务的处理过程。 Since user equipment identification is very important to users and operators, To ensure the security of the user equipment identity, the security mechanism of the IMS network can ensure this. In a specific application, the user equipment identifier may be provided as part of the access network information and provided when the user equipment provides the access network information to the IMS network. The functional entity responsible for processing the service in the IMS network may use the user equipment identifier, and sometimes combine other information to assist the processing of the service.
二、 通过 SIP消息承载用户设备标识的方法主要有如下两种: 方法一、 利用 SIP消息中新增的信息域来承载并传输用户设备标识 信息。 下面以在 SIP消息的 Contact头域中增加新的信息域(即增加新 的参数)为例对 SIP消息承载、 传输用户设备标识的方法进行说明。  The methods for carrying user equipment identifiers through SIP messages are as follows: Method 1. The information field added in the SIP message is used to carry and transmit user equipment identification information. The following describes a method for carrying a SIP message bearer and transmitting a user equipment identifier by adding a new information field (that is, adding a new parameter) in the Contact header field of the SIP message.
在 SIP规范定义的 Contact头域中增加新的特征标签 ( feature tag ), 该特征标签用于指示用户设备标识, 该特征标签可以类似的定义为: sip.device— id,但本发明并不限定该特征标签具体的定义形式。本发明所 述用户设备标识可以为: 用户设备标识符, 或者为用户设备标识类型和 用户设备标识符的组合。 因此, 该特征标签可以直接携带具体的用户设 备标识符, 如: SIP 网络中按照某种规则统一分配的用于标识用户设备 的标识符; 该特征标签也可以同时携带用户设备标识类型以及具体的用 户设备标识符。 该特征标签也可以用于指示用户设备标识符的一部分, 另一部分可以为 Contact头域中原来承载的信息, 如公共用户标识等。  A new feature tag is added to the Contact header field defined by the SIP specification, and the feature tag is used to indicate a user equipment identifier, and the feature tag can be similarly defined as: sip.device_id, but the invention is not limited The feature tag is specifically defined. The user equipment identifier of the present invention may be: a user equipment identifier, or a combination of a user equipment identification type and a user equipment identifier. Therefore, the feature tag can directly carry a specific user equipment identifier, such as: an identifier for identifying the user equipment that is uniformly allocated according to a certain rule in the SIP network; the feature label can also carry the user equipment identifier type and the specific User device identifier. The feature tag may also be used to indicate a part of the user equipment identifier, and the other part may be information originally carried in the Contact header field, such as a public user identity.
这里, 该特征标签可使用字符串来表示, 比如: 首先明确指示用户 设备标识类型, 再进一步指示具体的用户设备标识符。 其中, 典型的用 户设备标识类型, 即本发明用户设备标识类型的取值可以为: MAC、 或 IMEI、 或 MEID等等。 当然, 用户设备标识类型并不限于上述三种, 并 不排除以后出现其它用户设备标识类型, 但均在本发明保护范围之内。  Here, the feature tag can be represented by a character string, for example: first explicitly indicating the user device identification type, and further indicating a specific user equipment identifier. The value of the user equipment identification type of the present invention may be: MAC, or IMEI, or MEID, and the like. Of course, the user equipment identification type is not limited to the above three types, and does not exclude other user equipment identification types, but all are within the protection scope of the present invention.
在用户设备标识类型的取值确定之后, 需要确定具体的用户设备标 识符, 例如: 如果用户设备标识类型为 IMEI, 则用户设备标识符就是该 SIP用户代理( UA )对应的用户设备中保存的 IMEI值; 如果用户设备 标识类型是 MAC, 则用户设备标识符就是该 SIP UA对应用户设备上保 存的 MAC地址; 如果用户设备标识类型为 MEID, 则用户设备标识符 就是该 SIP UA对应的用户设备中保存的 MEID值; 如果用户设备标识 类型为空或者所述用户设备标识仅包括用户设备标识符(即没有用户设 备标识类型), 则用户设备标识符可以为全球唯一的标识符 (UUID, Universally Unique IDentifier )或也为 。 After the value of the user equipment identification type is determined, the specific user equipment identifier needs to be determined, for example: if the user equipment identifier type is IMEI, the user equipment identifier is saved in the user equipment corresponding to the SIP user agent (UA). IMEI value; if user equipment The identifier type is the MAC address, and the user equipment identifier is the MAC address stored in the user equipment corresponding to the SIP UA; if the user equipment identifier type is the MEID, the user equipment identifier is the MEID value saved in the user equipment corresponding to the SIP UA; If the user equipment identifier type is empty or the user equipment identifier includes only the user equipment identifier (ie, no user equipment identification type), the user equipment identifier may be a Universally Unique IDentifier (UUID) or .
上述用户设备标识类型和用户设备标识符在 Contact头域中的具体 表现形式有多种, 下面举几个具体的例子来说明:  The above-mentioned user equipment identification type and user equipment identifier have various manifestations in the Contact header field. Here are a few specific examples to illustrate:
例 1、 Contact头域中用户设备标识类型和用户设备标识符分开表示 的消息格式如下:  Example 1. The message format of the user equipment identification type and the user equipment identifier in the Contact header field is as follows:
Contact: <sip:user@example.com>;audio;video;mobility="mobile";  Contact: <sip:user@example.com>;audio;video;mobility="mobile";
+message=MTRUE";device_id="IMEr';imei="350112408932969"; methods="INVITE,OPTIONS,BYE,CANCEL,ACKM;schemes=+message= M TRUE";device_id="IMEr';imei="350112408932969";methods="INVITE,OPTIONS,BYE,CANCEL,ACKM;schemes=
"sip,http" "sip,http"
其中, Contact头域中新增的特征标签为: device— id, 用户设备标识 类型为: IMEI, 具体的用户设备标识符为: 350112408932969。 这里的 用户设备标识符可以有自己独立的命名原则, 也可以采用已有的命名原 则。  The new feature tag in the Contact header field is: device_id, and the user device identifier type is: IMEI. The specific user device identifier is: 350112408932969. User device identifiers here can have their own independent naming conventions, as well as existing naming conventions.
上述消息格式可被转换成如下断言:  The above message format can be converted into the following assertions:
(;& (audio=TRUE)  (;& (audio=TRUE)
(video=TRUE)  (video=TRUE)
(sip.mobility=mobile)  (sip.mobility=mobile)
(message=TRUE)  (message=TRUE)
(I (sip.identifier=IMEI) (sip.identifier.imei=350112408932969)) (I (sip.methods=INVITE) sip.methods=OPTIONS)(sip.methods= (I (sip.identifier=IMEI) (sip.identifier.imei=350112408932969)) (I (sip.methods=INVITE) sip.methods=OPTIONS)(sip.methods=
BYE)(sip.methods=CANCEL)(sip.methods=ACK)) (I (sip.schemes=sip) (sip .schemes=http))) BYE)(sip.methods=CANCEL)(sip.methods=ACK)) (I (sip.schemes=sip) (sip .schemes=http)))
例 2、 Contact头域中用户设备标识类型和用户设备标识符放在一起 表示的消息格式为:  Example 2. The user equipment identification type and the user equipment identifier in the Contact header field are put together to represent the message format:
Contact: <sip:user@example.com>;audio;video;mobility="mobile";  Contact: <sip:user@example.com>;audio;video;mobility="mobile";
+message="TRUE";device_id=,,IMEI:350112408932969"; +message="TRUE";device_id= ,, IMEI:350112408932969";
methods=MINVITE,OPTIONS,BYE,CANCEL,ACKM;schemes=Methods= M INVITE,OPTIONS,BYE,CANCEL,ACK M ;schemes=
"sip,http" "sip,http"
其中, Contact头域中新增的特征标签为: device— id, 用户设备标识 类型为: IMEI, 具体的用户设备标识符为: 350112408932969。 这里的 用户设备标识符可以有自己独立的命名原则 , 也可以采用已有的命名原 则。  The new feature tag in the Contact header field is: device_id, and the user device identifier type is: IMEI. The specific user device identifier is: 350112408932969. The user device identifier here can have its own independent naming convention, or it can use the existing naming convention.
例 3、 Contact头域中仅设置用户设备标识符的消息格式为: Contact: <sip:user@example.com>;audio;video;mobility="mobileM; Example 3: The message format for setting only the user equipment identifier in the Contact header field is: Contact: <sip:user@example.com>;audio;video;mobility="mobile M ;
+message="TRUE";device_id="00-20-ed-aa-49-e8"; methods="INVITE,OPTIONS,BYE,CANCEL3ACK";schemes= "sip,http" +message="TRUE";device_id="00-20-ed-aa-49-e8";methods="INVITE,OPTIONS,BYE,CANCEL 3 ACK";schemes= "sip,http"
其中, Contact头域中新增的特征标签为: device_id, 用户设备标识 符为: 00-20-ed-aa-49-e8。这里的用户设备标识符应该有自己独立的命名 原则。  The new feature tag in the Contact header field is: device_id, and the user device identifier is: 00-20-ed-aa-49-e8. The user equipment identifier here should have its own independent naming principle.
例 4、 Contact头域中仅设置用户设备标识符的消息格式为: Example 4. The message format for setting only the user equipment identifier in the Contact header field is:
Contact: <sip :user@example. com>; audio; video; mobility = "mobile "; +message= "TRUE";device_id= "03"; Contact: <sip :user@example. com>; audio; video; mobility = "mobile "; +message= "TRUE";device_id= "03";
methods="INVITE,OPTIONS5BYE,CANCEL,ACKM;schemes=Methods="INVITE,OPTIONS 5 BYE,CANCEL,ACK M ;schemes=
"sip,http" "sip,http"
其中, Contact头域中新增的特征标签为: device— id, 特征标签中的 内容为用户设备标识符的一部分, 如: 后半部分或前半部分或中间部分 等。 该用户设备标识符可以由公共用户标识(如 IMPU或 MSISDN )与 用户设备的索引值构成, 该用户设备标识符可以区分几个共用同一公共 用户标识的用户设备中的某一用户设备。 例 4中的用户设备标识符是由 Contact头域中携带的 IMPU和 device一 id中的索引值共同构成的, 即用 户设备标识符为 sip:user@example.com: 03, 其中的索引值有自己独立 的命名原则。 因为这里填入的是字符串, 而且两位索引可以表示 0 ~ 99 这 100个不同的数值, 因此, 这个例子可以区分同一 IMPU下的 100个 不同用户设备。 IMPU和索引值结合起来使用就可以唯一标识一个用户 拥有的共用一个 IMPU 的多个终端。 并且, 将用户设备标识设置于 Contact头域后, SIP节点可以使用目前 SIP网絡中对 Contact头域的传 送机制来实现用户设备标识的传输。 The new feature tag in the Contact header field is: device_id, and the content in the feature tag is part of the user device identifier, such as: the second half or the first half or the middle part Wait. The user equipment identifier may be formed by a public user identifier (such as IMPU or MSISDN) and an index value of the user equipment, and the user equipment identifier may distinguish one of several user equipments sharing the same public user identifier. The user equipment identifier in the example 4 is formed by the index values in the IMPU and the device-id carried in the Contact header field, that is, the user equipment identifier is sip:user@example.com: 03, where the index value is Independent naming principles. Because the string is filled in here, and the two indexes can represent 100 different values from 0 to 99, this example can distinguish 100 different user devices under the same IMPU. The combination of IMPU and index values can uniquely identify multiple terminals owned by one user and share the same IMPU. Moreover, after the user equipment identifier is set in the Contact header field, the SIP node can use the transmission mechanism of the Contact header field in the current SIP network to implement the transmission of the user equipment identifier.
例 5: 在 Contact头域中新增的特征标签中, 重用全球唯一的标识符 ( UUID, Universally Unique IDentifier )命名空间, 使用 UUID来唯一 标识一个用户设备, 具体可以表示为:  Example 5: In the feature tag added to the Contact header field, the UUID (UniU unique IDentifier) namespace is reused, and the UUID is used to uniquely identify a user device, which can be expressed as:
device— id=" <urn:uuid:f81d4fae-7dec-lld0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6>" 当然, 本发明所述用户设备标识的构造方法以及在 SIP消息新增信 息域来承载、 传输用户设备标识的方法并不限于上述列举的几种形式。 在方法一中, SIP 消息的新的信息域中承载的用户设备标识可以为主叫 用户设备标识、 也可以为被叫用户设备标识, 也可将主叫用户设备标识 和被叫用户设备标识同时承载于新增信息域中。  Device_id=" <urn:uuid:f81d4fae-7dec-lld0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6>" Of course, the method for constructing the user equipment identifier of the present invention and the method for carrying and transmitting the user equipment identifier in the new information field of the SIP message It is not limited to the several forms listed above. In the first method, the user equipment identifier carried in the new information domain of the SIP message may be the identity of the calling user equipment or the user equipment of the called user, or the identity of the calling user equipment and the called user equipment identifier. Hosted in the new information domain.
方法二、 利用 SIP消息已有的信息域来承载并传输用户设备标识, 即: 对 SIP规范中已有的信息域进行扩展, 使扩展后的信息域能够携带 用户设备标识。从而,可以利用已有的机制来实现用户设备标识的传送。 其中, 对于不识别扩展后信息域的 SIP节点, 不对扩展后的信息域进行 处理, 即: 跳过这部分不被识别的信息域, 根据现有 SIP协议的实现原 则继续处理 SIP消息的其它信息域, 因此, 不会影响现有 SIP协议的实 现过程。 Method 2: The information domain existing in the SIP message is used to carry and transmit the user equipment identifier, that is, the information domain existing in the SIP specification is extended, so that the extended information domain can carry the user equipment identifier. Thus, the transmission of the user equipment identity can be implemented using existing mechanisms. The SIP node that does not recognize the extended information domain does not process the extended information domain, that is, skips the unrecognized information domain according to the existing SIP protocol. Then, the other information fields of the SIP message continue to be processed, and therefore, the implementation process of the existing SIP protocol is not affected.
下面以扩展现有的呼叫信息 (Call-Info )信息域为例对本发明的利 用 SIP消息已有的信息域来承载并传输用户设备标识的方法进行说明。 这里, 在请求消息中 Call-Info信息域用于携带主叫的附加信息, 在应答 消息中 Call-Info信息域用于携带被叫的附加信息, 因此, Call-Info信息 域非常适合传送主被叫双方的用户设备标识。  The following is an example of extending the existing call information (Call-Info) information field as an example to describe a method for carrying and transmitting a user equipment identifier by using an existing information field of a SIP message. Here, in the request message, the Call-Info information field is used to carry the additional information of the calling party, and the Call-Info information field is used to carry the additional information of the called party in the response message. Therefore, the Call-Info information field is very suitable for transmitting the main message. Call the user equipment ID of both parties.
例 6、 在 Call-Info信息域中新增目的 ( purpose ), 以表示 Call-Info 信息域中携带的是用户设备标识, 且用户设备标识类型和用户设备标识 符分开表示, 其消息格式如下所示。 这里, 所谓新增 purpose并非指新 增信息域, 而是指扩展已有信息域 purpose 的取值, 采用新增 purpose 的取值来标志当前携带的是否为用户设备标识。  Example 6: Add a purpose in the Call-Info information field to indicate that the user equipment identifier is carried in the Call-Info information field, and the user equipment identifier type and the user equipment identifier are separately represented, and the message format is as follows: Show. Here, the so-called new purpose does not refer to the newly added information field, but the value of the existing information domain is extended, and the value of the new purpose is used to indicate whether the current device is the user equipment identifier.
Call-Info: <urn:imei:350112408932969>; purpose=di  Call-Info: <urn:imei:350112408932969>; purpose=di
其中, di是新增 purpose, 用户设备标识类型为: IMEI, 具体的用 户设备标识符为: 350112408932969。 这里的用户设备标识符可以有自 己独立的命名原则, 也可以采用已有的命名原则。  Where di is the new purpose, the user equipment identification type is: IMEI, and the specific user equipment identifier is: 350112408932969. The user equipment identifiers here can have their own independent naming principles or existing naming conventions.
例 7、 利用已有的 purpose来承载用户设备标识, 其消息格式如下: Call-Info: <urn:imei:350112408932969>; purpose=info  Example 7. The existing purpose is used to carry the user equipment identifier. The message format is as follows: Call-Info: <urn:imei:350112408932969>; purpose=info
其中, info是已有的 purpose, 用户设备标识类型为: IMEI, 具体的 用户设备标识符为: 350112408932969。处理这个信息的 SIP网络功能实 体需要能理解用户设备标识的命名原则, 从而能够解析并确定 Call-Info 信息域中承载的是用户设备标识信息还是原有的附加信息。 这里的用户 设备标识符可以有自己独立的命名原则, 也可以采用已有的命名原则。  Where info is the existing purpose, the user device identification type is: IMEI, and the specific user device identifier is: 350112408932969. The SIP network function entity that processes this information needs to understand the naming principle of the user equipment identity, so that it can parse and determine whether the user equipment identity information or the original additional information is carried in the Call-Info information domain. The user equipment identifiers here can have their own independent naming principles or existing naming conventions.
例 8、在 Call-Info信息域中新增 purpose, 以表示 Call-Info信息域中 携带的是用户设备标识,且用户设备标识信息仅包括:用户设备标识符, 其消息格式如下: Example 8, adding a purpose in the Call-Info information field to indicate that the user equipment identifier is carried in the Call-Info information field, and the user equipment identifier information only includes: the user equipment identifier. The message format is as follows:
Call-Info: <urn:00-20-ed-aa-49-e8>;purpose=di  Call-Info: <urn:00-20-ed-aa-49-e8>;purpose=di
其中, di是新增 purpose, 用户设备标识符为: 00-20-ed-aa-49-e8。 这里的用户设备标识符应该有自己独立的命名原则。  Where di is the new purpose, and the user device identifier is: 00-20-ed-aa-49-e8. The user device identifier here should have its own independent naming convention.
例 9、 Contact头域中仅设置用户设备标识符, 其消息格式为: Call-Info: <urn: sip:user@example.com:03>;purpose=di  Example 9. In the Contact header field, only the user equipment identifier is set. The message format is: Call-Info: <urn: sip:user@example.com:03>;purpose=di
其 中 , di 是 新 增 purpose , 用 户 设 备 标 识 符 为 sip:user@example.com:03 , 该用户设备标识符可以由公共用户标识 (如 IMPU或 MSISDN )与用户设备的索引值构成, 该用户设备标识符可以 用来标识几个共用同一公共用户标识的用户设备中的某一用户设备。 这 里的用户设备标识符前半部分(如 sip:user@example.com ) 可以采用已 有的命名原则, 后半部分(如: 03 )应有自己独立的命名原则。  Where di is the new purpose, the user equipment identifier is sip:user@example.com:03, and the user equipment identifier may be composed of a public user identifier (such as IMPU or MSISDN) and an index value of the user equipment, the user equipment The identifier can be used to identify one of several user devices that share the same public user identity. The first half of the user equipment identifier (such as sip:user@example.com) can use the existing naming principle, and the second half (such as 03) should have its own independent naming principle.
上述各种消息格式只代表一种可能的表达方式, 仅为本发明给出的 示例而已, 并非用于限定本发明的保护范围, 并可能存在其他表达方式 能实现相同的目的。  The above various message formats represent only one possible expression, which is merely an example given by the present invention, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, and other expressions may achieve the same purpose.
此外, 由于现有 SIP网络没有考虑如何将 SIP终端的用户设备标识 等信息传送给 SIP网络中的各个功能实体, 那么用户在丟失了用户设备 之后, 任何得到该用户设备的人都可以使用该用户设备, 而无需付出任 何代价, 这对 IMS用户而言损失是无法避免的, 将会造成 IMS网络的 用户满意度大大降低, 不利于开展 IMS业务。 更严重的是, 用户设备中 或多或少会存储一些用户信息,如: IMS用户设备上配置的 IP多媒体业 务身份识別模块(ISIM )或通用用户设备识别模块(USIM )用于存储 私有用户标识和很多公共用户标识等信息。 所以, 如果用户设备遗失, 将可能对 IMS用户的通信安全性造成严重影响。 另外, 考虑到随着科技 的发展, 多种接入技术将可能并存, 未来的用户设备也将向着多模的方 向演进, 一个用户设备在不同接入网络中可以使用不同的接入方式接入 到 IMS网络, 出于运营商维护和管理的需要, 一个在一定范围内能够唯 一标识用户设备的信息也是非常有用的。 所以, 基于本发明用户注册流 程, S-CSCF接收的注册请求中携带有用户设备标识, 这样, 可使以 SIP 作为信令控制协议的 IMS网络实现对用户设备的管理。 In addition, since the existing SIP network does not consider how to transmit information such as the user equipment identifier of the SIP terminal to each functional entity in the SIP network, after the user device is lost, any user who obtains the user equipment can use the user. The equipment, without any cost, is unavoidable for IMS users, which will greatly reduce the user satisfaction of the IMS network, which is not conducive to the IMS service. What is more serious is that the user equipment stores more or less user information, such as: IP Multimedia Service Identity Module (ISIM) or Universal User Equipment Identity Module (USIM) configured on the IMS user equipment for storing private users. Information such as logos and many public user IDs. Therefore, if the user equipment is lost, it may have a serious impact on the communication security of the IMS user. In addition, considering that with the development of technology, multiple access technologies will coexist, and future user equipment will also move toward multi-mode To evolve, a user equipment can use different access methods to access the IMS network in different access networks. For the maintenance and management needs of operators, it is also very useful to uniquely identify the user equipment within a certain range. of. Therefore, based on the user registration process of the present invention, the registration request received by the S-CSCF carries the user equipment identifier, so that the IMS network using SIP as the signaling control protocol can implement management of the user equipment.
比如: 可以在 IMS网络中设置用户设备注册服务器, 也可被称为设 备标识注册服务器(DIR, Device Identity Register ), 该用户设备注册服 务器用于存储 IMS用户的用户设备标识, 如: IMEI、 MAC地址、 MEID 等, 由设备标识服务器对用户设备标识统一进行管理。 当 IMS用户使用 业务时, 可首先到用户设备注册服务器查询相应用户设备标识的状态标 识, 如果该状态标识可用, 则 IMS网络就向 IMS用户提供各种业务; 否则, 拒绝向用户提供 IMS网络的各种业务。 这样, 当用户设备丢失时 用户可上才艮 IMS网絡, 则 IMS网络根 ¾该用户签约时登记的用户设备 标识, 在用户设备注册服务器加以标识, 如添加禁用标识。 这样, 该用 户设备就处于禁用状态,这样,当有人使用该用户设备访问 IMS网络时, 该用户设备标识将通过注册请求携带到 IMS网络, IMS网络就会通过查 询用户设备注册服务器确定该用户设备标识处于禁用状态, 而使当前使 用该用户设备访问 IMS网络的用户无法使用 IMS网络提供的各种业务。 进一步的, IMS网絡可结合位置业务, 跟踪丢失的用户设备, 得到该用 户设备目前所处的具体位置, 以作相关处理。  For example, the user equipment registration server (DIR, Device Identity Register) can be set up in the IMS network, and the user equipment registration server is used to store the user equipment identifier of the IMS user, such as: IMEI, MAC For the address, MEID, etc., the device identification server manages the user device ID uniformly. When the IMS user uses the service, the user equipment registration server may first query the status identifier of the corresponding user equipment identifier. If the status identifier is available, the IMS network provides various services to the IMS user; otherwise, the IMS network is refused to be provided to the user. Various businesses. In this way, when the user equipment is lost, the user can access the IMS network, and the IMS network roots the user equipment identifier registered at the time of the user subscription, and is identified at the user equipment registration server, such as adding a disable identifier. In this way, the user equipment is disabled, so that when the user equipment accesses the IMS network, the user equipment identifier will be carried to the IMS network through the registration request, and the IMS network determines the user equipment by querying the user equipment registration server. The identity is disabled, and the user currently using the user device to access the IMS network cannot use the various services provided by the IMS network. Further, the IMS network can combine the location service, track the lost user equipment, and obtain the specific location where the user equipment is currently located for related processing.
由于, 本发明中在 S-CSCF收到注册请求后, 增加对用户设备标识 和 /或接入网信息等附加注册信息的判断,使得使用相同用户标识的不同 用户设备的注册成为可能。 例如: 某 IMS 用户同时拥有一个支持 WLAN/GPRS接入的掌上电脑和一个支持 GPRS接入的移动终端, 这两 个用户设备使用相同的 IMPI和 IMPU, 那么当该 IMS用户使用掌上电 脑的时, 可通过 GPRS方式注册到 IMS网络上; 此后, 当该 IMS用户 同样使用 GPRS接入方式将另一移动终端注册到 IMS网络上时, S-CSCF 可通过该移动终端的用户设备标识判断出这是不同于原来掌上电脑的 用户设备的发起的注册流程。 此时, 掌上电脑和移动终端使用的都是 GPRS 网络中唯一标识用户设备的标识, 因此 S-CSCF可以区分这两个 不同的用户设备, 从而不会发起网络侧注销过程删除已经存储的掌上电 脑的注册信息。但是, 如果掌上电脑已经通过 GPRS方式在 IMS网络中 注册了, 后续该 IMS用户携带该掌上电脑漫游至另一 GPRS网络时, 在 未对上一次注册进行注销的情况下又重新通过 GPRS方式发起一次新的 注册流程时, S- CSCF通过当前用户设备标识就能够判断出这是同一用 户设备发起的重复注册, 从而发起网络侧注销过程, 删除旧的掌上电脑 的原来注册信息, 而存储新的掌上电脑当前的注册信息。 Therefore, in the present invention, after the S-CSCF receives the registration request, the judgment of the additional registration information such as the user equipment identifier and/or the access network information is added, so that registration of different user equipments using the same user identifier becomes possible. For example: An IMS user has both a PDA that supports WLAN/GPRS access and a mobile terminal that supports GPRS access. These two user devices use the same IMPI and IMPU, then when the IMS user uses handheld power The time of the brain can be registered to the IMS network by means of GPRS; thereafter, when the IMS user also registers another mobile terminal to the IMS network by using the GPRS access mode, the S-CSCF can identify the user equipment of the mobile terminal. It is judged that this is a registration process initiated by the user equipment of the original handheld computer. At this time, the handheld computer and the mobile terminal use the identifier of the GPRS network that uniquely identifies the user equipment, so the S-CSCF can distinguish the two different user equipments, so that the network side logout process is not initiated to delete the stored handheld computers. Registration information. However, if the PDA has been registered in the IMS network by means of GPRS, and subsequently the IMS user carries the PDA to roam to another GPRS network, the GPRS mode is initiated again without logging off the previous registration. During the new registration process, the S-CSCF can determine that this is a duplicate registration initiated by the same user equipment through the current user equipment identifier, thereby initiating the network side logout process, deleting the original registration information of the old handheld computer, and storing the new palm. Current registration information for the computer.
基于上述本发明方法,本发明还提出了一种实现 IMS中用户注册的 系统, 该系统包括: 用户设备和 IMS注册功能实体; 该系统相对于现有 的用户注册系统来说, 区别在于: 所述用户设备用于发送注册请求至所 述 IMS注册功能实体, 且该注册请求携带的注册信息至少包含: 用户设 备信息、 用户标识和物理联系地址; 所述 IMS注册功能实体用于从用户 设备接收注册请求, 从注册请求中解析得到包含用户设备信息、 用户标 识和物理联系地址的注册信息; 在当前请求注册的用户与已注册的用户 具有相同用户标识和不同物理联系地址时, 依据解析得到的用户设备信 息确定当前请求注册的用户使用的用户设备是否与已注册的用户使用 的用户设备相同, 如果相同, 则存储当前注册请求中携带的注册信息并 注销已注册的所述相同用户标识对应的注册信息; 否则, 存储当前注册 请求中携带的注册信息并保留已注册的所述相同用户标识对应的注册 信息。 图 4示出了本发明系统一较佳实施例组成结构示意图。 本实施例系 统包括: 用户设备和 IMS注册功能实体, 该 IMS注册功能实体中包含: 注册请求解析模块和注册处理模块。 由于本文关注的是本发明对于现有 技术的改进部分, 为筒化描述, 图 4中仅示出用户设备和 IMS注册功能 实体中与本发明处理相关的功能模块, 对于现有的与本发明无关的功能 模块本文不作描述, 但包含这些现有的与本发明无关的功能模块、 并包 含图 4所示模块的用户设备和 IMS注册功能实体仍在本发明的保护范围 之内。 Based on the above method of the present invention, the present invention also provides a system for implementing user registration in an IMS, the system comprising: a user equipment and an IMS registration function entity; the system is different from the existing user registration system in that: The user equipment is configured to send a registration request to the IMS registration function entity, and the registration information carried by the registration request at least includes: user equipment information, a user identifier, and a physical contact address; the IMS registration function entity is configured to receive from the user equipment Registration request, parsing the registration information including the user equipment information, the user identifier, and the physical contact address from the registration request; when the user currently requesting registration has the same user ID and different physical contact address as the registered user, The user equipment information determines whether the user equipment used by the user currently requesting registration is the same as the user equipment used by the registered user. If they are the same, the registration information carried in the current registration request is stored and the registered same user identifier is deleted. Registration information; otherwise, The registration information carried in the current registration request is stored and the registration information corresponding to the registered same user identifier is retained. Fig. 4 is a block diagram showing the structure of a preferred embodiment of the system of the present invention. The system of the embodiment includes: a user equipment and an IMS registration function entity, where the IMS registration function entity includes: a registration request parsing module and a registration processing module. Since the present invention is concerned with the improvement of the prior art of the present invention, for the description of the cylinder, only the functional modules related to the processing of the present invention in the user equipment and the IMS registration function entity are shown in FIG. 4, for the existing and the present invention. The irrelevant functional modules are not described herein, but the user equipment and the IMS registration functional entity including these existing functional modules unrelated to the present invention and including the modules shown in Fig. 4 are still within the scope of the present invention.
如图 4所示,用户设备用于发送注册请求至所述 IMS注册功能实体, 且该注册请求携带的注册信息至少包含: 用户设备信息、 用户标识和物 理联系地址。 注册请求解析模块用于从来自用户设备的注册请求中解析 得到注册信息并输出至所述注册处理模块, 该注册信息至少包含: 用户 设备信息、 用户标识和物理联系地址。 注册处理模块用于从注册请求解 析模块接收注册信息, 对接收到的注册信息以及已注册的注册信息进行 判断, 在当前请求注册的用户与已注册的用户具有相同用户标识和不同 物理联系地址时, 依据当前注册信息中的用户设备信息确定当前请求注 册的用户使用的用户设备是否与已注册的用户使用的用户设备相同, 如 果相同, 则存储当前注册请求中携带的注册信息并注销已注册的所述相 同用户标识对应的注册信息; 否则, 存储当前注册请求中携带的注册信 息并保留已注册的所述相同用户标识对应的注册信息。  As shown in FIG. 4, the user equipment is configured to send a registration request to the IMS registration function entity, and the registration information carried by the registration request at least includes: user equipment information, a user identifier, and a physical contact address. The registration request parsing module is configured to parse the registration information from the registration request from the user equipment and output the registration information to the registration processing module, the registration information including at least: user equipment information, a user identifier, and a physical contact address. The registration processing module is configured to receive registration information from the registration request parsing module, and determine the received registration information and the registered registration information, when the user currently requesting registration has the same user identifier and different physical contact address as the registered user. And determining, according to the user equipment information in the current registration information, whether the user equipment currently used by the user to be registered is the same as the user equipment used by the registered user, and if the same, storing the registration information carried in the current registration request and canceling the registered registration The registration information corresponding to the same user identifier; otherwise, storing the registration information carried in the current registration request and retaining the registration information corresponding to the registered same user identifier.
该系统还可进一步包括:与 IMS注册功能实体中的注册处理模块相 连的用户设备注册服务器。 该用户设备注册服务器用于通过 GSM或 GPRS或 IMS过程从外部实时获取各个用户设备的状态, 保存各个用户 设备与其状态之间的对应关系, 从自身连接的注册处理模块接收所述注 册信息中的用户设备信息并返回对应的用户设备状态给该 IMS 注册功 能实体。 这样, IMS注册功能实体能够在用户请求使用 IMS业务时, 确 定当前用户使用的用户设备的状态 (比如: 用户设备是否处于可用状 态), 从而确定是否允许用户使用 IMS业务。 The system may further comprise: a user equipment registration server coupled to the registration processing module in the IMS registration function entity. The user equipment registration server is configured to acquire the state of each user equipment in real time from the outside through a GSM or GPRS or IMS process, and save a correspondence between each user equipment and its state, and receive the registration information from the registration processing module connected to itself.
