Description

A kind of method and apparatus of supporting the MBMS business
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of communication means and device, relate in particular to a kind of communication means and device of the MBMS of support business.
Technical background
Universal day by day along with the fast development of mobile communication technology and mobile communications network, people no longer have been satisfied with simple receiving calls and simple messaging service to the demand of mobile communication.(Internet) goes up flourish multimedia service in the Internet for some, and for example: video request program, television broadcasting, video conference, online education and interactive game etc. are becoming mobile subscriber's expectation.
For the development that adapts to mobile multi-media service with effectively utilize mobile network resource, global standardsization organize 3GPP (3G (Third Generation) Moblie cooperative programme) to propose BroadCast MultiCast Service MBMS (MBMS:Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service).The MBMS technology is meant a data source, by a transmission link of sharing, sends the point-to-multipoint service of data to a plurality of users.
With WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA)) network is example, in order to realize MBMS, need to existing SGSN in the WCDMA network (Serving GPRS Support Node: Serving GPRS Support Node), GGSN (Gateway GPRS Support Node: Gateway GPRS Support Node), RNC (radio network controller: Radio Network Controller) and UE User Equipment) etc. (user terminal: the node of packet domain increases the MBMS function, also need to increase a MBMS service node simultaneously, that is: broadcasting and multicast service center BM-SC.The simplified model of MBMS architecture as shown in Figure 1.
In Fig. 1, Gmb, Gi reference point are the interface between BM-SC and the GGSN, and wherein, the Gmb interface provides the chain of command function, and the Gi interface provides user plane functions.As newly-increased node, BM-SC is the inlet of MBMS service supplier, is used for authorizing and initiating business.
For the node that has existed in the WCDMA network, the MBMS correlation function that needs to increase comprises:
(1) UE supports to activate and cancel the MBMS business, supports the professional and non-MBMS business of parallel processing MBMS.
(2) UTRAN (the universal mobile telecommunications system grounding wireless access network comprises RNC and Node B node) according to the UE number and the available radio resources of subscribing MBMS business in the current area, selects suitable service bearing mode.This service bearing mode comprise PTP (point-to-point: Point-to-Point) and PTM (put multiple spot: Point-to-Multipoint) two kinds of patterns.Wherein, under the PTP service bearing mode, via special-purpose physical down Channel Transmission MBMS business, and under the PTM service bearing mode, via inferior Common Control Physical Channel MBMS transmission business.UTRAN supports core net to initiate and stop the transmission of MBMS business, supports to receive UE the moving between RNC of MBMS business, supports professional other the parallel business of transmission and MBMS simultaneously.
(3) SGSN carries out network control to the UE that receives the MBMS business, and the MBMS business is sent to UTRAN, finishes the billing function of MBMS business.
(4) GGSN according to the notice of BM-SC, is the professional carrying of setting up or discharging user's face and chain of command of MBMS.
Except that UTRAN, as shown in Figure 1, be in a UE among the mobile network, also can pass through Radio Access Network GERAN (GSM EDGE Radio Access Network network, EDGE: improve data transfer rate GSM service), receive the data of MBMS business.
The MBMS business has broadcasting and two kinds of mode of operations of multicast.Broadcast mode be meant multi-medium data from a service source by unidirectional all UE that send in the broadcast service zone, the UE under this pattern need not the registration can receive broadcast data; Multicast pattern and broadcast mode are similar, but but the UE of receiving multicast data is only limited to registered UE, when the UE number that receives multi-case data in the sub-district is very few, can selects to send multi-case data, thereby reduce interference other Radio Links with the service bearing mode of PTP.
Below, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings 2, briefly be described in the packet network based on WCDMA, realize the process of MBMS business.
● registration phase (broadcast mode does not need): between UE and MBMS service supplier, set up contact (step S10).After registration was finished, UE can receive multi-case data, the MBMS service charging of MBMS service supplier to providing.
● the service statement stage: the MBMS service source provides the essential information (step S20) of the MBMS business that is about to transmission to UE.
● UE adds the stage (broadcast mode does not need): based on the business information that the service statement stage provides, UE becomes the multicast group membership (step S30) of a MBMS business.Because after adding the multicast group, UE need pay for the MBMS that receives is professional, therefore, in this stage, also will carry out carrying out the operation of authentication between UE and the MBMS service supplier.
● session incipient stage: UTRAN is a MBMS traffic assignments resource, sets up service bearer, and BM-SC prepares MBMS transmission business (step S40).
● the MBMS notification phase: notice UE carries out the preparation (step S50) that receives the MBMS business.
● data transfer phase: the data of MBMS business are sent to UE.Under the multicast pattern, the data of this MBMS business are (the step S60) that encrypts.
● the conversation end stage: when the end of transmission of MBMS business datum, be released to the resource (step S70) that the MBMS transmission business is distributed.
● UE leaves the registration of stage (broadcast mode does not need): UE cancellation multicast service, no longer receives this multicast service (step S80).
Implementation procedure from above-mentioned MBMS business, can see: set up in the session incipient stage owing to be used for the carrying of transferring MBMS service data, therefore, in MBMS business data transmission process, be difficult to current state, in time adjust service bearing mode according to UE.
For example: in the time of beyond a UE who receives the MBMS business datum moves to the MBMS service coverage area, even this moment, UE was in the state that can not receive the MBMS business datum, but, owing to do not receive conversation end message from UE, BM-SC is still at transferring MBMS service data, and the user still will pay corresponding service fee for this reason.
Again for example: the service quality (QoS) that improves the MBMS business of transmitting when a UE expectation that receives the MBMS business datum, or its service of enjoying when user expectation (as: mobile TV or mobile phone meeting) not essential factor its leave the MBMS service coverage area and when interrupting, in existing MBMS architecture, usually because can not in time adjust service bearing mode, and make mobile service that the user experienced shortcoming slightly unavoidably.

Embodiment
In the communication means of support MBMS business proposed by the invention, utilized IMS system (IP Multimedia System: IP Multimedia Subsystem) based on SIP (Session initiation Protocol: Session InitiationProtocol) agreement and the characteristic that is independent of access and bearing technology, in the professional transmission course of MBMS, by the signaling key-course of IMS system, the message that UE will adjust service bearing mode sends to the application server AS of IMS; And be transmitted to BM-SC via IMS AS, thus make and just in time adjust its bearing mode at the BM-SC of MBMS transmission business, to satisfy user's needs.
Accompanying drawing 3 is depicted as the schematic diagram of introducing the IMS subsystem in the MBMS architecture.Compare with conventional MBMS architecture shown in Figure 2, in Fig. 3, be arranged in a user terminal of cordless communication network, for example: mobile phone, the bearing bed of the IMS that forms via access network GERAN, by SGSN and GGSN and by CSCF (CSCF: Call Session Control Function) and HSS (home subscriber server: Home Subscriber Server) etc. the signaling key-course of the IMS that forms, set up signaling link with IMS AS.Wherein, constitute the SGSN and the GGSN of IMS bearing bed, can reuse SGSN and GGSN in the MBMS architecture by relevant configuration.IMS AS self or third party pass through IMS AS can provide MBMS business such as mobile TV or mobile meeting.The BM-SC that is arranged in the MBMS architecture not only can receive the control messages from IMS AS, and the data of the MBMS business that IMS AS can be provided are transferred to user terminal via the communication network (GGSN, SGSN) and the access network GERAN/UUTRAN of packet domain.
In accompanying drawing 4, schematically illustrated be between each UE in the cordless communication network and the IMS AS set up signaling link, based on the MBMS system of WCDMA network and the correlation between the IMS system.
Hereinafter, will be in conjunction with the accompanying drawings 5, be example with the WCDMA network as access network, describe communication means in detail according to the support MBMS business in the IMS system of the present invention.Because the bearing layer equipment in the MBMS system can be reused by the IMS system, in order more clearly to describe user terminal is used for the bearing mode of MBMS transmission business by IMS AS notice BM-SC and then adjustment process, in accompanying drawing 5, signal transmission relation between user terminal UE, broadcasting and multicast service center BM-SC and the IMS application server IMS AS only is shown, and omitted the CSCF that plays the route effect between IMS AS and the UE, and omitted and between UE and BM-SC, set up radio bearer and network entities such as MBMS transmission professional needed RAN, SGSN and GGSN.
As shown in Figure 5, at first, user terminal UE sets up signaling link (step S100) via the bearing bed and the signaling key-course of IMS system with IMS AS.After having set up this signaling link, UE sends message by signaling control channel to IMS AS.In setting up the process of this signaling link, by the home subscriber server HSS stored user information in the IMS system, IMS AS can carry out the identity testimony of a witness to UE.
When this UE moves to the MBMS service coverage area (step S110), if viewing the user of this UE, IMS AS customized the MBMS business in advance, then IMS AS provides the essential information (step S120) of the business of can obtaining via signaling control channel to this UE.Wherein, any one mode that IMS AS can pass through in broadcast mode, PUSH mechanism (for example: WAP (wireless application protocol) WAP, short message service SMS and multimedia messaging service, MMS MMS) and URL (uniform resource locator, for example: HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) HTTP, the file transfer protocol (FTP) FTP) pattern provides this essential information to described UE.This essential information should comprise at least can obtain professional media information.This media information relates to: can obtain professional concrete application, for example: weather forecast, advertisement, news broadcast, I sports program and Video Music can wait; Can obtain professional medium type, for example: text, audio frequency, video and chart etc.
According to this essential information that receives, based on the configuration information of this UE, can UE detects it receive the data that this can obtain business via the MBMS pattern.Wherein, the configuration information of UE comprises: whether this UE possesses the ability that receives this business datum via the MBMS pattern, that is: whether this UE possesses the ability that activates and cancel the MBMS business; And whether this UE possesses the ability of parallel processing MBMS business and non-MBMS business.For example: the UE that has is merely able to receive concurrently the MBMS business datum of textual form when receiving calls.
Receive the ability that this can obtain business if this UE possesses via the MBMS pattern, then UE sends an ability information to IMS AS, can receive this via the MBMS pattern and can obtain professional data (step S130) to represent it.In this ability information, UE is the service quality of the MBMS business of its expectation of indication further.
After the ability information of receiving from this UE, IMS AS judges whether it can be as requested, and for example: the service quality of UE expectation provides MBMS business to this UE.In this stage, IMS AS can exchange the ability (step S140) of carrying out the professional transmission of MBMS with UE.
After UE and IMS AS confirm to support the professional transmission of MBMS mutually, obtain professional essential information according to above-mentioned, UE sends a service request (step S150) to IMS AS.This service request comprises user-selected media information and the configuration information of UE.In addition, this service request can also comprise when it leaves the MBMS service coverage area whether this UE expects to switch to the PTP service bearing mode and continue to receive this business datum.
After receiving this service request, at selected media information, IMS AS and UE consult to be used for the code/decode format (step S160) that adopts when transferring MBMS service data.In addition, IMS AS is used for the professional information transmitted of MBMS with the configuration information of selected media information and UE etc. and sends BM-SC (step S170) to.Here, how connecting between IMS AS and BM-SC, is not content of the present invention.IMS AS can connect with BM-SC in several ways, and for example: if the network address of BM-SC is to adopt the IP address, then IMS AS can connect by DNS (name server) and this BM-SC.
Receive be used for the professional information transmitted of MBMS after, according to user configuration information wherein, BM-SC is that UE distributes a MBMS service identification (ID) that is used to transmit this MBMS business; According to selected media information, BM-SC determines that it is used to transmit the port numbers and the multicast address of the employed transport layer of this media information.Then, BM-SC offers ISM AS (step S180) with information such as this port numbers and MBMS service identifications as being used for the professional transmission parameters of MBMS.
After the parameter of receiving from BM-SC, ISM AS sends this parameter to UE (step S190) via signaling control channel.
Utilize this parameter, can set up the service bearer between UE and the BM-SC, thereby via this service bearer, UE receives the MBMS business datum (step S200) from BM-SC.Process of transferring MBMS service data comprises by setting up service bearer for this:
At first, according to the MBMS service identification in the above-mentioned parameter, UE adds the professional multicast group of corresponding M BMS.Because set up the signaling link stage and UE has been carried out the identity testimony of a witness in above-mentioned steps S 100, therefore, in this adding stage, UE can use this identity authentication result, successfully add the professional multicast group of MBMS.
Become a member of the professional multicast group of MBMS at UE after, RNC is for carrying out each functional entity distributing radio resource of MBMS business, thereby sets up service bearer for UE and BM-SC.Wherein, RNC can determine service bearing mode according to the number of members and the current available radio resources situation of this multicast group, also can be according to the specific (special) requirements of UE and preferred a certain service bearing mode.
After setting up service bearer between UE and the BM-SC, from the multimedia messages of IMS AS, just can adopt the code/decode format of negotiation, with the MBMS pattern, be transferred to this UE by BM-SC.
Because in the professional transmission course of MBMS, between UE and IMS AS, remaining signaling control channel, therefore, when UE expected change service bearing mode, the request of the adjustment service bearing mode of its transmission can be transferred to IMS AS (step S210) via this signaling control channel.After receiving this request, IMS AS can in time notify BM-SC to adjust its service bearing mode (step S220).Then, BM-SC can correspondingly adjust (step S220) to its service bearing mode according to the notice from IMS AS.
Particularly, if UE desires to leave the MBMS service coverage area, then in step S210, UE sends a request to IMAAS, stops to its transferring MBMS service data with request.After receiving this request, in step S220, IMS AS notice BM-SC stops to transmit this MBMS business datum.After receiving this notice, in step S230, BM-SC stops transferring MBMS service data when stopping to charge.
