Embodiment
Channel handoff procedure in the embodiment of the invention can be that user terminal is initiated as required temporarily, perhaps also can be the strategy according to user terminal or network, has set after regularly channel is watched, and the channel of being initiated by network side or user terminal switches.
For making the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, below in conjunction with embodiment and accompanying drawing, the present invention is described in more detail.
Fig. 1 is the exemplary process diagram of the report method of embodiment of the invention mid band switching result.As shown in Figure 1, this flow process comprises the steps:
Step 101, channel switching result report entity to obtain the channel switching result of user terminal.
When the channel switching takes place, user terminal sends channel switch request to basic forwarding capability/basic control function entity (EFF/ECF), EFF/ECF carries out scope check according to the channel authority information of the user terminal that obtains to the channel switch request from user terminal.If scope check passes through, then the port at user terminal place is duplicated the multicast data flow data of new channel, receive new Media Stream for user terminal.As seen, user terminal and EFF/ECF all can be known channel switching result, so the channel switching result in the present embodiment reports process that following two kinds of situations can be arranged:
Situation one: it is user terminal that channel switching result reports entity.Be that user terminal directly reports SCF with the channel switching result of self.During specific implementation, when user terminal to send up was given SCF, other network entity also can be passed through in the centre, but other network entity can carry out transparent transmission by a channel switching result with user terminal, and do not process, therefore can be called for short is that user terminal directly reports SCF with the channel switching result of self.Also can there be similar situation in following situation in the present embodiment.
Situation two: it is P-CSCF that channel switching result reports entity, and then the P-CSCF mode of obtaining the channel switching result of user terminal can have two kinds.Mode one: P-CSCF obtains user terminal and switches self the channel switching result that reports after finishing at channel; Mode two: P-CSCF obtains the channel switching result of the user terminal of being accepted that EFF/ECF that RACS transmits reports.Mode three: P-CSCF obtains the channel switching result of the user terminal of being accepted that EFF/ECF reports.Respectively above-mentioned three kinds of modes are described in detail below.
Mode one: user terminal reports P-CSCF with the channel switching result of self after finishing the channel switching.
Give the correct time on concrete, user terminal can report by dialogue-based initializtion protocol (SIP).And can be after finishing the channel switching, directly the channel switching result with self reports P-CSCF; Perhaps also can after finishing channel and switching, start default timer, and before this timer expiry, not carry out new channel when switching, self channel switching result is reported P-CSCF.Further, before this timer expiry, carried out new channel and switched, then restarted timer, and before this timer expiry, do not carried out new channel when switching, self channel switching result has been reported P-CSCF.
Mode two: EFF/ECF reports RACS with the channel switching result of the user terminal accepted, by RACS the channel switching result of user terminal is reported P-CSCF.
Wherein, when EFF/ECF reported RACS with the channel switching result of the user terminal accepted, after can switching at the channel of accepted user terminal, the channel switching result with user terminal reported RACS immediately; Perhaps also can be after the channel of accepted user terminal switches, start default timer, and when before this timer expiry, not receiving the new channel switch request of described user terminal, the channel switching result of user terminal is reported RACS.
Further, before this timer expiry, receive the channel switch request that this user terminal is new, then restart timer, and when before this timer expiry, not receiving the new handoff request of described user terminal, the channel switching result of user terminal is sent to RACS.
Equally, when RACS reports P-CSCF with the channel switching result of user terminal, can be after receiving the channel switching result of user terminal, the channel switching result with user terminal reports P-CSCF immediately; Perhaps also can be after receiving the channel switching result of user terminal, start default timer, and when before this timer expiry, not receiving the new channel switching result of described user terminal, the channel switching result of user terminal is reported P-CSCF.
Further, before this timer expiry, receive the channel switching result that this user terminal is new, then restart timer, and when before this timer expiry, not receiving the new channel switching result of described user terminal, the channel switching result of user terminal is reported P-CSCF.
Wherein, user terminal is initiated channel switch request based on Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP).
Mode three: EFF/ECF directly reports P-CSCF with the channel switching result of the user terminal accepted.
Wherein, when EFF/ECF reported P-CSCF with the channel switching result of the user terminal accepted, after can switching at the channel of accepted user terminal, the channel switching result with user terminal reported P-CSCF immediately; Perhaps also can be after the channel of accepted user terminal switches, start default timer, and when before this timer expiry, not receiving the new channel switch request of described user terminal, the channel switching result of user terminal is reported P-CSCF.
Further, before this timer expiry, receive the channel switch request that this user terminal is new, then restart timer, and when before this timer expiry, not receiving the new handoff request of described user terminal, the channel switching result of user terminal is sent to P-CSCF.
Wherein, user terminal is initiated channel switch request based on Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP).
Step 102, channel switching result report entity that the channel switching result of the user terminal that received is reported SCF.
In this step, specifically report process to be: channel switching result reports entity to give SCF with the channel switching result of the user terminal that received by issue (PUBLISH) message in the Session Initiation Protocol or information (Info) message or instant (Message) information reporting.
Perhaps, if it is not unique providing professional SCF in the group network system, and centrally may pass through a plurality of application servers, SCF then in order to guarantee that channel switching result information can arrive provides professional, can report the channel handover event of entity subscribes user terminal in the present embodiment by SCF in advance to channel switching result, then in this step, channel switching result reports entity the channel switching result of the user terminal that received can be reported the SCF of the channel handover event of having subscribed to user terminal.Specifically report process the channel switching result of the user terminal that received to be given the SCF of the channel handover event of having subscribed to user terminal by the Notify information reporting in the Session Initiation Protocol for: channel switching result reports entity.
Further, the SCF in the present embodiment can be further after receiving the channel switching result of user terminal, need determine whether the change session, if desired, and the modification process of initiation session then.Because channel switches the variation that may cause resources such as QoS, bandwidth, can be invited with the transmission of satisfying the new channel content this moment by the modification process of SCF active initiation session.

Step 1103 is to step 1104, and ECF/EFF carries out scope check according to the user's who obtains channel authority information to user's channel switch request.If scope check passes through, then the port at user terminal place is duplicated the multicast data flow data of new channel, user terminal receives new Media Stream.
Step 1105 is to step 1106, and ECF/EFF opening timing device when not receiving the new switching result of user terminal before timer expiry, reports the channel switching result of this user terminal to give P-CSCF.
Step 1107, P-CSCF is notified to SCF by PUBLISH or MESSAGE message or INFO with the channel switching result of user terminal.
Step 1108, SCF returns the 200OK response message.
Step 1109, SCF charges according to the result that channel switches, statistics, the presence service judges whether operations such as initiatively initiation session change.
Example eight:
In some cases, when switching has caused the variation of resources such as QoS, bandwidth as channel, need come the initiatively modification process of initiation session, invite with the transmission of satisfying the new channel content by SCF.Figure 12 shows the report flow of example eight mid band switching results of the present invention and the schematic flow sheet that SCF active initiation session is revised.As shown in figure 12, this flow process comprises the steps:
Step 1201, the LTV session is set up normally.
Step 1202, the LTV Media Stream normally is submitted to the terminal use.
Step 1203, user terminal is initiated the handoff procedure of channel, and SCF has been known the switching result of channel.
Specific implementation process in this step can be any situation of describing in the step 101 shown in Figure 1, promptly comprises example one cited situation to the example four.
Step 1204, SCF judges that the QoS behind the switching channels changes, and needs the change procedure of initiation session.
Step 1205, SCF initiates heavily to invite (Reinvite) or upgrade the change that (Update) message is carried out session, negotiation request (SDP Offer) information of wherein carrying Session Description Protocol.
Step 1206, P-CSCF transmits Reinvite or Update message is given user terminal.
Step 1207, P-CSCF carries out resource reservation according to the SDP Offer information requirements RACS that receives.
Step 1208, UE returns 200OK, and (SDPAnswer) information is replied in the negotiation of carrying Session Description Protocol.
Step 1209, P-CSCF carries out resource reservation according to the SDP Answer information requirements RACS that receives.
Step 1210, P-CSCF sends 200OK message to SCF.
In the above-mentioned example eight, the switching that the reason of its triggering can be not limited to channel causes the variation of resource, it also can be strategy according to network or user, can set regularly channel as the user watches, when arriving a certain specific time, come the change procedure of active initiation session or set up process by network, realize that channel regularly switches or professional foundation.If network is initiatively initiated the professional process of setting up, the Reinvite/Upate message in the then above-mentioned example eight should be invitation (Invite) message.
In addition, the step 1205 in the above-mentioned example eight to step 1210 also can be by SCF informing user terminal (as Info or the Message message informing by SIP), is come the change procedure of active initiation session or is set up process by UE.
Above-described specific embodiment; purpose of the present invention, technical scheme and beneficial effect are further described; institute is understood that; the above only is preferred embodiment of the present invention; in the practical application; SCF can also be other sip application server (AS); therefore the embodiment of the invention is not to be used to limit protection scope of the present invention; within the spirit and principles in the present invention all; any modification of being done, be equal to replacement, improvement etc., all should be included within protection scope of the present invention.
