Description

The methods, devices and systems of called recovery in the mobile switching centre pond

Technical field

The present invention relates to mobile switching centre pond (MSC POOL) technology, particularly the methods, devices and systems of called recovery among the MSC POOL.

Background technology

3GPP23.236 proposed the diverse networking model of a kind of and traditional networking, a radio network controller (RNC)/base station controller (BSC) can be connected on a plurality of MSC, with the work of pond prescription formula, promptly a plurality of MSC have formed MSC POOL.MSC POOL has lot of advantages, and for example each MSC can load sharing, reduces the C/D message order between MSC and the attaching position register (HLR), the E interface message capacity between the minimizing MSC etc.

In MSC POOL, suppose that a certain MSC identifies with MSC1, when the terminal under this MSC1 when called, call flow mainly may further comprise the steps:

1) the caller gateway exchange is to the roaming number (MSRN) of HLR request terminal called;

2) HLR sends (PRN) message that Provides Roaming Number to Signaling Transfer Point, and STP sends to MSC1 with this PRN message again;

3) MSC1 is that terminal called distributes MSRN, the MSRN of this distribution is carried in the PRN response message sends to HLR;

4) HLR sends to the caller gateway exchange with the MSRN of terminal called, and the caller gateway exchange is routed to MSC1 according to the calling that MSRN initiates calling terminal.

Through above-mentioned 1)-4) step, the access success that calling terminal is initiated to terminal called, wherein HLR obtains the MSRN of terminal called, is the key that realizes the terminal called access success.But above-mentioned flow process is based on MSC1 precondition in proper working order, the machine if the MSC1 failover is delayed, and the terminal that then MSC1 is corresponding can't be according to above-mentioned flow process access success during as terminal called.There is a kind of solution at present to the problems referred to above; In the method; Use VLR Visitor Location Register (VLR) redundancy technique; Promptly, also use route priority or the active and standby technology of sharing of signaling link control section (SCCP) destination signaling point at the user data of the VLR back-up terminals in the MSC of terminal called distributing paging.Wherein, the active and standby technology of sharing of route priority or SCCP destination signaling point, both can choose one of which wantonly, are meant that all the master for the place, terminal disposes subsequent use MSC with MSC; And the VLR redundancy technique comprises centralized backup and non-centralized backup, and wherein centralized backup is meant the user data at all terminals in the network all on centralized backup to a MSC; This MSC is called centralized backup MSC server; But not centralized backup is meant the user data backup of different terminals to different MS C, and all there is the backup MSC of correspondence self at each terminal, and these two kinds of backup modes can be chosen one of which wantonly; Terminal use's data of backup comprise the master data and the lane place at terminal; Wherein the zone at the current place of lane place indicating terminal is convenient to issue the paging to the terminal in this zone targetedly, has solved the problem that can not issue the whole network paging among the MSC POOL.

This solution mainly comprises:

1. HLR sends PRN message to STP, STP confirm and MSC1 between senior route break down, this PRN message is sent on the MSC2 of the machine of not delaying among the MSC POOL, promptly this MSC2 is the backup MSC of MSC1, sends said PRN message from the low priority route;

2. on MSC2, issue the paging to terminal called, insert the principle of lateral root according to load sharing, the page response that terminal called is sent sends on the MSC3 among the MSC POOL;

3. MSC3 carries out the position renewal to HLR, informs that HLR terminal called position has been updated under the MSC3;

This step can comprise that MSC3 sends position updating request to HLR; HLR sends the canceling position request to STP; STP sends to MSC2 with this canceling position request; MSC2 removes the terminal called user data of inner backup; HLR inserts the user data of terminal called again to MSC3; MSC3 be terminal called distribute can indicating self temporary mobile subscriber identity (TMSI); The user data of MSC3 after the MSC2 backup updating;

1. above-mentioned～3. be the terminal call flow when called for the first time under the fault MSC; Because after the the PRN message that 1. HLR sends in the step; In subsequent step, do not receive PRN response message to this PRN message; Obtain the MSRN at terminal so HLR can't do at this terminal for the first time when called, so called the failure done at this terminal for the first time.

For the second time when called, use the step 2 of MSC3 at this terminal called according to aforementioned introduction)-3) just can make HLR in calling, obtain the MSRN of terminal called, thus realize that called terminal call is successfully.

Above-mentioned method of the prior art; Though solved under certain MSC fault is delayed the situation of machine; The access success of terminal under this MSC when called; But the terminal is for the second time could realize access success when called, and promptly the completing place is upgraded in for the first time as called calling, and for the second time when called MSC after the use renewal just can make HLR obtain the MSRN of terminal called; Thereby make access success, can't realize that access success is just realized for the first time at the terminal on the fault MSC when called.

Embodiment

For the purpose and the advantage that make the embodiment of the invention is clearer, the embodiment of the invention is done further explain below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.

At first, introduce the method for called recovery among first kind of MSC POOL of the embodiment of the invention.

Fig. 1 is the method flow diagram of called recovery among first kind of MSC POOL of the embodiment of the invention.Before flow process shown in Figure 1 began, according to those skilled in the art's common practise, the backup MSC of terminal called received HLR through the PRN message that STP sends, and issues the paging to terminal called; The MSC that receives the terminal called page response is terminal called distribution T MSI, carries out the position to HLR and upgrades.

Flow process shown in Figure 1 comprises:

Step 101: the backup MSC of terminal called receives the PRN message that HLR sends.

Step 102: the backup MSC of terminal called, the MSC that obtains said reception terminal called page response is the MSRN that terminal called distributes carry out the position renewal to HLR after.

In this step, obtain MSRN method can for, the MSC that receives the terminal called page response will be carried in the private message for the MSRN that terminal called distributes, and send to the backup MSC of terminal called.

Step 103: the backup MSC of terminal called with the MSRN of said terminal called, is carried in the PRN response message and sends to HLR.

The method of called recovery among first kind of MSC POOL of the embodiment of the invention; Carry out after the position upgrades to HLR at the MSC that receives the terminal called page response; The MSC that the backup MSC of terminal called is obtained said reception terminal called page response is the MSRN that terminal called distributes, and with the MSRN of said terminal called, is carried in the PRN response message and sends to HLR; Realized the terminal under the fault MSC; For the first time doing when called, HLR just can obtain the MSRN of terminal called, thereby realizes that this terminal makes the access success when called for the first time.

The first method that the embodiment of the invention provides can realize on MSC, combines concrete application scenarios below respectively, and several kinds of preferred embodiments that on MSC, realize are described.

At first, the first method that the embodiment of the invention provides still can adopt the VLR redundancy technique, and route priority technology.

In the VLR redundancy technique; Backup mode still can be divided into two kinds of centralized backup and non-centralized backups, and wherein in the centralized backup mode, the Backup Data at all terminals is concentrated and is stored on the centralized backup MSC server in the network; This centralized backup MSC server is not responsible manages business; And according to the data configuration relation, when needs carried out user data backup, other MSC in the network can be with the storage of subscriber data that needs backup to this centralized backup MSC server; In non-centralized backup mode; The backup MSC that different terminals in the network is corresponding different; When needs carried out user data backup, the MSC at current place, terminal can arrive the storage of subscriber data of needs backup the backup MSC of this terminal correspondence according to the identification information at terminal.

In route priority technology; STP is when transmitting the message of HLR transmission; Route between each MSC in the network is divided into high low priority; STP directly is divided into the high priority route to the route between the purpose MSC of current HLR transmission message, and with STP process other MSC except that the purpose MSC of current HLR transmission message, the route to above-mentioned purpose MSC is divided into the low priority route again.

Network according to VLR backup mode and terminal called place is that 2G and 3G are application scenarios below, and the preferred embodiment that first method that the embodiment of the invention provides realizes on MSC is described, in following preferred embodiment, the mode of establishing is closed in MSC and VLR employing.

Fig. 2 is first kind of preferred embodiment flow chart that the method for called recovery among first kind of MSC POOL of the embodiment of the invention realizes on MSC.

The application scenarios of supposing this preferred embodiment is: in the VLR redundancy technique, adopt centralized backup; The main of terminal called uses MSC to be MSC A; The MSC of centralized backup is MSC B; The MSC that receives the terminal called page response is MSC C.

Flow process shown in Figure 2 comprises:

Step 201:HLR sends PRN message to STP, and purpose is to obtain MSRN from MSC A.

Step 202:STP is to the high priority routing failure of MSC A, and the said PRN message that STP selects the low priority route that HLR is sent sends to the MSC B of centralized backup.After MSC B receives PRN message; No longer transmit; PRN message is landed at local exchange, and from PRN message, take out international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI), at the corresponding terminal backup VLR of self this IMSI of internal searching; Promptly search the user data of the corresponding terminal backup of IMSI, issue paging this terminal.

In this step, several kinds of possible situation below MSC B distributing paging exists:

A) terminal called shutdown, then MSC B directly returns the information of terminal called shutdown to HLR, and process ends;

B) terminal called is in idle pulley, takes out lane place (LA) information of terminal called, and distributing paging in the indicated band of position of LA carries out paging with IMSI;

C) terminal called is in connection status, takes out LA, and distributing paging in the indicated band of position of LA carries out paging with IMSI.After MSC A fault, the terminal meeting call drop of conversing, so the corresponding backup VLR of terminal called, promptly user data does not obtain upgrading yet.

Step 203: after terminal called is received paging and made page response; Access Network (RAN) is according to the load balancing algorithm; The page response of terminal called is sent to MSC C; Being RAN sends to a non-paging Originating Office with the page response of terminal called, and MSC C confirms that terminal called do not register at local exchange.

In this step; The Non-Access Stratum node is selected possibly to have IMSI in (IDNNS) cell between the territory in the page response in the 3G network, also possibly have TMSI, and that carry in the IDNNS cell in the page response in the 2G network all is IMSI; But because MSC B is the MSC of centralized backup; Therefore no matter do not manage business, that the IDNNS cell in the page response carries is IMSI or TMSI, and this page response can not send to MSC B.

Step 204:MSC C sends position updating request through STP to HLR.

After step 205:HLR receives position updating request; Send the canceling position request to STP; Be used to cancel the positional information at the original place of terminal called, because STP arrives the high priority routing failure of MSC A, STP sends to this canceling location information request the MSC B of centralized backup.

After step 206:MSC B receives the canceling location information request, remove the user data among the corresponding VLR of self inner terminal called.

Step 207:MSC B sends the canceling position acknowledge message through STP to HLR.

Step 208:HLR inserts the user data of terminal called to MSC C.

Step 209:HLR sends the position to MSC C and upgrades the message of accepting.

Step 210:MSC C sends to the TMSI that terminal called distributes to RAN, and the network resource identifier among the TMSI of this distribution (NRI) can identify MSC C in MSC POOL.

Step 211:MSC C comprises that with the terminal called corresponding user data IMSI, lane place identification code (LAI) and User Status etc. backup to MSC B again, after upgrading as the terminal called position, at the user data of the new backup of MSC B.

Above-mentioned steps 204～step 211 has been accomplished the MSC that receives the terminal called page response, carries out the process that analog position upgrades to HLR.

Step 212:MSC C is that terminal called distributes MSRN, and the MSRN that distributes is sent to MSC B through privately owned MAP (MAP) signaling.

In this step; The private message that sends MSRN adopts privately owned MAP implementing signalling; This privately owned MAP signaling is the new signaling according to the semantical definition of existing protocol, and known to those skilled in the art protocol semantics repeats no more here; This privately owned MAP signaling structure is following, and wherein MSRN delegation is the MSRN for the terminal called distribution that carries.

Step 213:MSC B is carried at MSRN in the PRN response message and returns to HLR.

In first kind of preferred embodiment that the method for called recovery realizes on MSC in first kind of MSC POOL of the embodiment of the invention; Adopt the centralized backup mode, after HLR carried out the position renewal, the MSC that centralized backup MSC server obtains said reception terminal called page response was the MSRN that terminal called distributes at the MSC that receives the terminal called page response; And with the MSRN of said terminal called; Be carried in the PRN response message and send to HLR, realized the terminal under the fault MSC, for the first time doing when called; HLR just can obtain the MSRN of terminal called, thereby realizes that this terminal makes the access success when called for the first time.

Fig. 3 is second kind of preferred embodiment flow chart that the method for called recovery among first kind of MSC POOL of the embodiment of the invention realizes on MSC.

The application scenarios of supposing this preferred embodiment is: in the VLR redundancy technique, adopt non-centralized backup; The main of terminal called uses MSC to be MSC A; The backup MSC of terminal called is MSC B; The MSC that receives the terminal called page response is MSC C; IDNNS cell in the terminal called page response comprises the TMSI that distributes before the MSC A fault, but not comprises IMSI in access layer network node selection function (NAS) cell.

Flow process shown in Figure 3 comprises:

Step 301～step 302 is identical with step 201～step 202.

Step 303: terminal called is received paging and is made page response, comprises the preceding TMSI that distributes to terminal called of MSC A fault in this page response in the IDNNS cell, comprises NRI among this TMSI, is used for the A at MSC POOL sign MSC; That carry in the Non-Access Stratum network node selection function NAS cell in this page response is IMSI.

The NRI that RAN carries according to the TMSI in the page response finds MSC A, finds MSC A fault, then according to the load balancing algorithm, page response is sent to the MSC C in the MSC POOL.

Step 304～step 311 is identical with step 204～step 211.

The NRI that step 312:MSC C carries according to TMSI in the page response; And according to main configuration relation with MSC and subsequent use MSC; The backup MSC of confirming terminal called is MSC B, for terminal called distributes MSRN, the MSRN that distributes is sent to MSC B through privately owned MAP signaling.

In this step, the structure of private MAP signaling can be with identical shown in the step 212.

In above-mentioned flow process shown in Figure 3, if in step 303, RAN is according to the load balancing algorithm; Page response is just in time sent to MSC B; Promptly just in time send on the backup MSC of terminal called, then the flow of step 303 can adopt another kind of mode to realize, promptly MSC B can directly carry out the position renewal to HLR; And, return the PRN response message that carries MSRN to HLR again for terminal called distributes MSRN.

In second kind of preferred embodiment that the method for called recovery realizes on MSC in first kind of MSC POOL of the embodiment of the invention; Adopt non-centralized backup mode; The TMSI that the fault MSC that carries in the page response of terminal called distributes, after HLR carried out the position renewal, the MSC that the backup MSC of terminal called is obtained said reception terminal called page response was the MSRN that terminal called distributes at the MSC that receives the terminal called page response; And with the MSRN of said terminal called; Be carried in the PRN response message and send to HLR, realized the terminal under the fault MSC, for the first time doing when called; HLR just can obtain the MSRN of terminal called, thereby realizes that this terminal makes the access success when called for the first time.

Fig. 4 is the third preferred embodiment flow chart that the method for called recovery among first kind of MSC POOL of the embodiment of the invention realizes on MSC.

The application scenarios of supposing this preferred embodiment is: the user data among the VLR adopts non-centralized backup; The main of terminal called uses MSC to be MSC A; The backup MSC that terminal called is corresponding is MSC B; The MSC that receives the terminal called page response is MSC C; When terminal called is called out, the MSC A machine of delaying that breaks down; That the IDNNS cell in the terminal called page response carries is IMSI, also is IMSI and the NAS cell carries.

Flow process shown in Figure 4 comprises:

Step 401～step 402 is identical with step 201～step 202.

Step 403: terminal called is received paging and is made page response, comprises IMSI in the IDNNS cell in this page response, and that in the NAS cell, carry also is IMSI.RAN is according to the IMSI that comprises in the IDNNS cell; Search the corresponding relation of IMSI and MSC; Embodiment can be searched the corresponding relation of IMSI and Global CNID or signalling point, and the backup MSC that finds terminal called is MSC B, and page response is sent to MSC B.

Step 404: consider the load balancing of MSC POOL, MSC B is redirected to processing on the MSC C according to the load of other MSC among the MSC POOL with page response.In this step; If the page response at all terminals on the fault MSC A is all handled on MSC B; Will make MSC B load excessive; Therefore can select that a part of page-response message is redirected to other MSC and go up processing, suppose that the terminal called page response in this preferred embodiment is redirected to processing on the MSC C.

Step 405～step 414 is identical with step 204～step 213.Wherein in the step 413 when MSCB sends the privately owned MAP signaling carry MSRN, the structure of this privately owned MAP signaling can be with identical shown in the step 212.

In this preferred embodiment; Also execution in step 405 not, and directly handle page-response message by MSC B, the operation that promptly MSC C accomplishes in step 405～step 414 all has MSC B to accomplish; But MSC B does not carry out the step of using private message to send MSRN; MSC B directly handles page-response message if this is, then the MSRN of terminal called itself is just distributed MSC by MSC B

B is as long as after distributing MSRN, it is carried at send to HLR in the PRN response message and get final product.

In the third preferred embodiment that the method for called recovery realizes on MSC in first kind of MSC POOL of the embodiment of the invention; Adopt non-centralized backup mode; The IMSI that the fault MSC that carries in the page response of terminal called distributes, after HLR carried out the position renewal, the MSC that the backup MSC of terminal called is obtained said reception terminal called page response was the MSRN that terminal called distributes at the MSC that receives the terminal called page response; And with the MSRN of said terminal called; Be carried in the PRN response message and send to HLR, realized the terminal under the fault MSC, for the first time doing when called; HLR just can obtain the MSRN of terminal called, thereby realizes that this terminal makes the access success when called for the first time.

Secondly, introduce the method for called recovery among second kind of MSC POOL of the embodiment of the invention.

Fig. 5 is the method flow diagram of called recovery among second kind of MSC POOL of the embodiment of the invention; Before flow process shown in Figure 5 begins, according to those skilled in the art's common practise, the backup MSC of terminal called; Receive HLR through the PRN message that STP sends, issue paging terminal called; The MSC that receives the terminal called page response is terminal called distribution T MSI.

Flow process shown in Figure 5 comprises:

Step 501: receive the MSC of terminal called page response, when HLR carried out the position renewal, notice resend PRN message through STP.

Step 502: receive the MSC of terminal called page response, receive the PRN message that resends.

Step 503: receive the MSC of terminal called page response, will be carried at for the MSRN that terminal called distributes in the PRN response message and send to HLR.

The method of called recovery among second kind of MSC POOL of the embodiment of the invention, the MSC that receives the terminal called page response is when HLR carries out the position renewal, and notice resends PRN message; Promptly notify to the MSC that receives the terminal called page response and resend PRN message; Thereby HLR can be retrieved as the newly assigned MSRN of terminal called from the MSC that receives the terminal called page response, realized the terminal under the fault MSC; For the first time doing when called; HLR just can obtain the MSRN of terminal called, thereby realizes that this terminal makes the access success when called for the first time.

The method of called recovery among second kind of MSC POOL of the embodiment of the invention; Can on HLR or STP, realize; Below respectively with regard to these two kinds of implementations, the preferred embodiment of enumerating two embodiment of the invention second methods, likewise; In these preferred embodiments, MSC and VLR adopt the mode of establishing of closing.

Fig. 6 is first kind of preferred embodiment flow chart of called recovery method among second kind of MSC POOL of the embodiment of the invention.The application scenarios of supposing this preferred embodiment is: the main of terminal called uses MSC to be MSC A; Subsequent use MSC is MSCB; The MSC that receives the terminal called page response is MSC C; This method realizes on HLR.

Flow process shown in Figure 6 comprises:

Step 601:HLR sends PRN message to STP, and it is the MSRN that terminal called distributes that purpose is to obtain MSC A.

Step 602:STP is to the high priority routing failure of MSC A, and the MSC B that the said PRN message that HLR is sent sends to centralized backup walks the low priority route.MSC B no longer transmits after receiving PRN message, and PRN message is landed at local exchange.

Step 603:MSC B takes out IMSI from PRN message, at the corresponding terminal backup VLR of self this IMSI of internal searching, promptly search the corresponding terminal backup user data of IMSI, distributing paging.

B) terminal called is in idle pulley, takes out LA, and distributing paging in LA indicating positions zone carries out paging with IMSI;

C) terminal called is in connection status, takes out LA, and distributing paging in LA indicating positions zone carries out paging with IMSI.After MSC A fault, the terminal meeting call drop of conversing, so the corresponding backup VLR data of terminal called do not obtain upgrading yet.

To above-mentioned b) and c) two kinds of situation, MSC B finishes the distributing paging flow process behind distributing paging, and returns a cause value " user is unreachable " to HLR.

Step 604: after terminal called is received paging and made page response; RAN is according to the load balancing algorithm; The page response of terminal called is sent to MSC C, and promptly RAN sends to a non-paging Originating Office with the page response of terminal called, and MSC C confirms that terminal called do not register at local exchange.

Step 605:MSC C sends position updating request through STP to HLR, carries the particular extension cell in this position updating request, is used for telling the MSRN of HLR to MSC C obtains terminal called, promptly tells HLR to send PRN message to MSC C again.
