The handover scheme of VoIP is the function expansion on 3GPP VCC scheme basis and strengthens in the IMS territory that the embodiment of the invention proposes, through terminal and VCC application server are two functions entity improvement of VCC Application and strengthen the seamless switching of realizing VoIP in the IMS territory.Seamless for realizing that the VoIP voice switch; Promptly realize the voice continuity of VoIP in the IMS territory, before the opportunity of switching, the terminal must be carried out following preparation in advance: sign in to IMS through different WLAN registrations; Redundant many registrations have promptly been accomplished; Exemplarily, as use identical or different public identify (PUI, Pulbic User Identity) registration signs in to IMS through different WLAN.Redundant many registrations make many connections of setting up when the signaling that arrives this terminal can have mulitpath promptly to register to select, for realizing that in the VoIP communication process seamless switching provides assurance in the terminal.The IMS core net of the embodiment of the invention is supported the redundancy registration at above-mentioned terminal.
Exemplarily, the wireless IP access network in the foregoing description can be WiFi and/or WiMax.The multimode terminals of above-mentioned terminal in the embodiment of the invention for supporting redundancy is registered more, exemplarily, like WiFi/WiMax dual-mode terminal or WiFi/WiMax/xG (x represents 2G, 2.5G, 3G) three mould terminals.
Exemplarily, in the step 401 in the foregoing description, the terminal is inserted and is registered the step that signs in to the IMS core net through at least two different IP Access Networks and comprises following several kinds of situations:
First kind of situation, the terminal obtains different IP addresses through different wireless IP access networks, and uses different privately owned sign (PVI, Private User Identity) to sign in to said IMS core net with identical PUI.
In this case, the terminal need at least two PVI number, can regard the user as and have at least two ISIM cards.Signing in to the IMS core net with the terminal through two different WLAN access net registrations is that example describes: the terminal need two PVI number, can be that a double-terminal such as mobile phone carry out voice and switch between two WLAN such as WiFi and WiMax; This situation also can be amplified between two terminals, carrying out voice and switched, such as, the user uses the WiFi terminal to dial voip phone earlier, under the condition of dropped calls not, voice is switched on another WiMax terminal on demand.
Second kind of situation, the terminal obtains different IP addresses through different WLAN Access Networks, and uses identical PVI to sign in to the IMS core net with different PUI.
The third situation, the terminal obtains different IP addresses through different WLAN Access Networks, and uses identical PVI to sign in to the IMS core net with identical PUI.
When signing in to the IMS core net for the terminal through above-mentioned several kinds of situations access and registration, the prerequisite that the method for the embodiment of the invention is implemented is that IMS core net support terminal carries out the redundancy registration through above-mentioned several kinds of situations.
In the above embodiment of the present invention, above-mentioned terminal can be the calling party of voip conversation, callee that also can voip conversation.Among this embodiment, the terminal is during as the calling party, and the terminal can select a kind of WLAN in above-mentioned at least two different wireless IP access networks to initiate voip phone, rises and exhales signaling to be anchored into VCC Application; The terminal is during as the callee, and the terminal can select a kind of WLAN in above-mentioned at least two different wireless IP access networks to answer voip phone.
In the above embodiment of the present invention; In the step 402; Handoff request in the IMS territory can be when switching condition is satisfied between the preset IP Access Network at the terminal, by the handoff request that initiate according to preset switchover policy automatically at the terminal, also can be the handoff request that the user manually initiates.Exemplarily, the WLAN Access Network that can cut at the terminal is two when above, and the terminal can be selected the Access Network of desire incision according to the switching priority that is provided with in advance.Exemplarily, if the Access Network that current terminal can be cut comprises: WiFi, WiMax and GSM, it is WiFi that the switching priority then can be set in advance>WiMax>GSM, promptly when above-mentioned three kinds of Access Networks all can be cut, preferred selection switched to WiFi.
In the above embodiment of the present invention; In the step 402; Preset access switching condition can be: the signal energy value such as the signal strength weakening of the wireless IP access network of current carrying VoIP conversation for example are attenuated to less than the first preset network signal intensity threshold value, also keep reaching Preset Time length less than the time span of the said first network signal intensity threshold value.If satisfy this condition, then initiate the handoff request in the IMS territory.Concrete; Carry switching condition for this; In the step 402; Carry out through one in above-mentioned at least two IP Access Networks in the process of VoIP conversation at the terminal, the signal energy value of the wireless IP access network of current carrying VoIP conversation is detected at the terminal, and judge detected signal energy value whether less than the first preset network signal intensity threshold value, and keep reaching Preset Time length less than the time span of the said first network signal intensity threshold value; In this way, the handoff request in the IMS territory is initiated at then said terminal; Otherwise above-mentioned handoff request is not initiated at said terminal, or further judges whether to satisfy other preset switching condition.
In the above embodiment of the present invention, in the step 402, switching condition can also be between the preset IP Access Network: the terminal receives the order of the manual switchover IP Access Network of user's input.Should carry switching condition when satisfying; And when the network signal of the current Target IP Access Network of desiring to switch to satisfies predetermined condition; The user can be according to the wish of oneself; At any time between different Access Networks, switch, as between mobile network, WiFi or WiMax, switching, and guarantee to switch the continuity of back VoIP voice.Particularly; In the step 402; Carry out through one in above-mentioned at least two IP Access Networks in the process of VoIP conversation at the terminal, judge that the signal whether terminal receives the Target IP Access Network of desiring to switch in wireless IP access network switching command that the user imports and the said switching command has reached the second preset network signal intensity threshold value; In this way, then the handoff request in the IMS territory is initiated at the terminal.Exemplarily; In concrete the realization; Can on the terminal that possesses the VCC function, increase the operation interface of a manual switchover; This interface provides the option of user-operable, as network handover operation menu or button are provided, and the user can select between the current Target IP Access Network that can switch to through operating above-mentioned menu or button.For example; If user VoIP current IP Access Network is WiFi; Then switching menu perhaps can show " WiMax " through action button; Showing promptly that the user is current can switch to WiMax with the signaling between terminal and the VCC application server, and the user chooses " WiMax " option, realizes that so the VCC control module of VCC function will notify VoIP on the Target IP Access Network of desire incision, to rebulid calling.
When realizing the VCC function at terminal in the prior art, usually, the VCC service end is the login maintenance information that the service end of VCCApplication can be set up the terminal in the memory field, the presence at record terminal.Embodiments of the invention improve this function, increase to support redundant registration function, as through writing down the redundant registration function that the presence at terminal comes support terminal with PVI and PUI as the major key word.Second kind of situation with in the redundant registration of above-mentioned 3 kinds of the mentioning situation is example; Be that the user adopts same PVI and different PUI registered ims core net, pass through IMS core net third-party registration function so, registration message all is forwarded to the VCC application server; In the login tabulation that the VCC application server is safeguarded; In section sometime, then have two online records, represent different PUI registration respectively.Other situation is similar.In another embodiment, the VCC application server can also be with PVI and PUI as the presence of major key from home subscriber server (HSS, Home Subscriber Server) inquiry terminal.
About the indication of the objective network after switching, switch to the IMS territory in the CS territory of the 3GPP VCC norm-setting of prior art, be through switching the territory when rebuliding call signaling, carries differentiation through request unified resource identifier Request-URI.Because the embodiment of the invention relates in same IMS territory and switches, need expand new interface scheme at terminal and VCC application server.The embodiment of the invention can be switched the indication of back objective network through following two kinds of schemes:
Scheme one, the VCC application server decides in the IMS territory and switches, and change to another kind of target access network according to being arranged on the switchover policy on the VCC application server by the user through the v3 interface in advance;
Scheme two; The VCC application server increases IMS territory access network type; For the terminal can provide audio call continuous domain switching unified resource identifier separately through the every kind of Access Network that inserts the IMS core net is that URI (VDI, VCC Domain Transfer URI) is switched in the VCC territory; When the user was switched between different IP Access Networks, Request-URI was provided with different VDI.
Fig. 5 is the schematic flow sheet of the changing method of another embodiment of the present invention.In this embodiment, initiate to switch to example with calling party terminal first.The changing method of this embodiment comprises the steps:
Step 501, the terminal first is carried out the IMS registration respectively through two kinds of WLAN Access Networks, and this terminal first is that the WiFi/WiMax/GSM three that possesses the VCC function touches the terminal.
For realizing the VCC function in the IMS territory; The terminal first need be registered to IMS respectively through two kinds of IP Access Networks (IP-CAN, IP-Connectivity Access Network), and twice registration not necessarily accomplished simultaneously; As long as guarantee that when VCC switched, the terminal first signed in to IMS at purpose IP-CAN.
Step 502; The terminal nail root is chosen a kind of IP-CAN among above-mentioned two kinds of IP-CAN according to preset strategy, and WiFi for example is based on this Access Network; Initiation IMS rises and exhales invitation (INVITE) message; This message is anchored into VCC Application, supposes that the callee terminal use is second, and this moment, second used VoIP to receive calls.
In this step 502, preset strategy can adopt pre-configured mode, the mode that also can adopt the user manually to select.Exemplarily; Above-mentioned pre-configured mode; Can be that the user is that interface between VCC application server and the user terminal is arranged on the network configured priority among the VCCApplication through the v3 interface in advance; According to the priority of configuration, from above-mentioned two different WLAN Access Networks, select a carrying VoIP phone at least.
Step 503, sometime, if the terminal first satisfies the switching condition by WiFi → WiMax, exemplarily, as the user who holds the terminal first walks out the coverage of WiFi, and this terminal first is still covered by the WiMax signal, then IMS territory handoff request is initiated at the terminal; Exemplarily; Handoff request is initiated through the VCC control module notice VoIP client that is provided with on it in the terminal; The VoIP client is initiated INVITE again and is called out on WiMax, and the indication of switching target network adopts above-mentioned second kind of scheme, and promptly the VCC application server provides different VDI in above-mentioned at least two different radio IP Access Networks each; And carry the VDI of the target access network of desiring to switch in the handoff request in the IMS territory of initiating; Be the VDI that carries the target access network of desiring to switch at the Request-URI of the INVITE message related to calls of initiating again in this example, this VDI representes that aiming field still is IMS, in this example; The target access network of desiring to switch to is WiMax, and the VDI that the Request-URI of the INVITE message related to calls that this is initiated again carries is the corresponding VDI of WiMax.
Step 504; The INVITE message related to calls that VCC application server receiving terminal is initiated again; And from this INVITE message related to calls, take out the Request-URI value; And judge this INVITE that initiates again according to the switchover policy that is provided with in advance and call out and be handoff request, and the Access Network of current carrying VoIP being conversed according to the VDI value in the Request-URI value of taking out switches to target access network WiMax, and the VCC application server is pressed back-to-back user agent (B2BUA; Back-to-Back User Agent) function is revised message, is mapped to the other end from an end.
Step 505, the Access Network of terminal first carries out media consultation process with terminal second after switching again, and accomplishes the media protocol process between first, second two terminals.
Step 506, the INVITE that the VCC application server is initiated step 504 is again replied 200Ok and is replied, and the terminal first is returned final acknowledge message ACK.
Step 507, calling terminal first are accomplished the voice switching, continue to carry out voice communication course in the WiMax and the terminal second of new incision.Like this, realized between terminal first and the terminal second carrying out the seamless switching of VoIP exactly, guaranteed the voice continuity of VoIP conversation in the IMS territory.
