Description

A kind of decision method of voice call continuity technology call, system and device
Technical field
The present invention relates to communication technical field, particularly a kind of decision method of voice call continuity technology call, system and device.
Background technology
2G/3G (2nd Generation/3rd Generation, second generation mobile communication technology/3G (Third Generation) Moblie technology) network is through for many years deployment, can regard a kind of comprehensive covering to a certain extent as, along with SAE (System Architecture Evolution, System Architecture Evolution)/LTE (Long TermEvolution, Long Term Evolution), HSPA (High Speed Packet Access, high-speed packet inserts), HSPA+ (High Speed Packet Access Evolution, high-speed packet inserts evolution) and WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access, micro-wave access global inter communication) development of internet technology, these network-covereds are to some cities and traffic hot zones, and in present communication network, these networks and 2G/3G network are also deposited.For convenience of description, will only provide PS (PacketSwitched, packet switching) SAE/LTE in territory, HSPA, HSPA+, WiMAX etc. are referred to as pure PS territory network.
At different network carrying mechanism, the audio call of mobile communication can be divided into following several classes:
The first kind is the session service of CS (Circuit Service, circuit domain business) territory carrying, as voice call;
Second class is the session service of PS territory carrying, be also referred to as VoIP (Voice over IP, the Voice over IP technology) class business, by IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem, the IP multimedia service subsystem) provides QoS (Quality of Service, service quality) guarantee, as the voice call of IP carrying.
Audio call can only transmit in the carrying of the PS territory of pure PS network, and IMS controls audio call by IP-based network.In the 2G/3G network, audio call generally all is to be carried on the CS territory.
The user who makes a call is in the call process, might cross over a plurality of networks, because the difference of load-bearing of mobile telecommunication business mechanism, cause moving out pure PS territory network base station institute coverage as UE, when entering the 2G/3G network base station area of coverage, the interruption of IMS audio call may occur, thereby influence the continuity that user speech is called out, vice versa.
In order to address the above problem, guarantee the continuity that user speech is called out, adopt SRVCC (SingleRadio Voice Call Continuity, single Radio Link continuous voice call technology) technical scheme to solve the continuity problem that is carried on the IMS audio call on the network of pure PS territory and is carried on audio call between the CS territory at present.
Prior art be it is generally acknowledged in the SRVCC technical scheme and is judged the territory transfer process that whether starts VCC (Voice Call Continuity, continuous voice call technology) by Access Network.Having only a calling is that the VCC calling just may utilize this technology, and so-called VCC calls out and is meant that an audio call is anchored on the VCC AS of IMS (Voice Call Continuity Application Server, voice continuity application server).Therefore, how to judge that whether a calling is the prerequisite that VCC audio call and the technical scheme of notifying Access Network to be based on SRVCC realize voice continuity.
Prior art provides judges the VCC audio call and notifies the method for Access Network to be by CSCF (CallSession Control Function, the CSCF body) judge an audio call whether be VCC call out and with the result by PCRF (Policy and Charging Rules Function, strategy and charging rule functions body) and EPC (Envolved Packet Core, the packet core of evolution) notify the Access Network of SAE/LTE.This is to realize in the SAE/LTE network that VCC calls out a kind of implementation method of judging and notifying Access Network.
But there are three defectives in this method:
(1) it is many to relate to the network entity of modification, comprises CSCF, PCRF, MME (MobilityManagement Entity, mobile management network element), the PDN GW (Packet Data NetworkGateway, grouped data network gateway) of IMS, realizes complicated;
(2) only consider the realization of SAE/LTE network, do not provided the implementation method of other pure PS territory network;
(3) do not consider the judgement and the Notification Method of CS territory VCC audio call in the 2G/3G network.
Therefore, the shortcoming of prior art is: the technical scheme that existing VCC calls out judgement and notice Access Network implements more complicated, and do not provide the implementation method of other pure PS territory network, do not have the judgement and the Notification Method of CS territory VCC audio call in the 2G/3G network yet.And prior art is not provided at the method that in the handoff procedure VCC calling indication message is notified to target access network yet, can't guarantee the realization of SRVCC technology in follow-up handoff procedure.

Embodiment
Since when having only a calling to be the VCC calling, could be by SRVCC technical scheme of the prior art, the continuity of voice when switching between different networks to be implemented in.Therefore, in order to realize the continuity of voice, will judge at first that for an audio call whether it be that VCC calls out, to Access Network, be the territory transfer process of switching between follow-up possible different networks technology when taking place notice UE startup VCC by Access Network based on the result notification of judging.Hence one can see that, judges that VCC calls out and the notice Access Network is the important prerequisite that the SRVCC technical scheme is achieved.And the source Access Network will be called out VCC court verdict and notify the purpose Access Network in handoff procedure, is achieved in follow-up switching to guarantee the SRVCC technology.
According to prior art, whether the audio call of IMS carrying anchors to the strategy decision of VCC AS by operator.Default strategy is, when all VCC contracted user callers and called audio call all anchor to VCCAS, could make follow-up territory transfer process to realize.The language business of CS territory carrying, no matter caller still is called, whether anchors to VCC AS and then can only be determined by carrier policy.For this reason, the embodiment of the invention will be treated the audio call of IMS carrying and the audio call differentiation of CS territory carrying.
For describing for simplicity, the embodiment of the invention abbreviates the audio call of IMS carrying as the IMS audio call, and the audio call that the CS territory is carried abbreviates the CS audio call as.
The embodiment of the invention is judged the IMS audio call and is notified the method for Access Network to be limited to the wireless network of 3GPP, be GSM (Global System for Mobile communications, global system for mobile communications)/GPRS (General Packet Radio Service, general packet radio service)/EDGE (EnhancedData Rate for GSM Evolution, the GSM evolution of enhancing data rate), WCDMA (WidebandCode Division Multiple Access, Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) inserts)/HSPA/HSPA+, SAE/LTE.The embodiment of the invention judges whether an IMS audio call is that VCC calls out, and based on default VCC strategy, i.e. when caller or called IMS audio call user were the VCC contracted user, then this IMS audio call should anchor to VCC AS.But, in order to make follow-up VCC territory transfer process to be achieved, also should consider the ability of UE, the UE that promptly only has the VCC ability can realize the follow-up VCC territory transfer process that may carry out.According to current 3GPP (the 3rd Generation Partner Project, third generation partner program) protocol specification, the core network entity that can obtain user signing contract information and UE ability (comprising the VCC ability) in the SAE/LTE network simultaneously is MME (Mobility ManagementEntity, mobile management entity), in 2G/3G, be SGSN (Serving GPRS Support Node, service GPRS support node).Therefore, judge that whether the IMS audio call is that VCC calls out and should be core network entity MME (SAE/LTE network) or SGSN (2G/3G) according to the network entity of UE ability notice Access Network.
In embodiments of the present invention, the UE ability comprises the VCC ability of UE.
For caller CS audio call, MSC (Mobile Switching Center, mobile switching centre) can judge whether this caller CS audio call is anchored on the VCC AS at the establishment stage of audio call, can judge promptly whether a caller CS audio call is that VCC calls out.According to the protocol specification of current 3GPP, also can obtain the UE ability at the establishment stage MSC of audio call, therefore, judge that whether caller CS audio call is that VCC calls out and should be core network entity MSC according to the network entity of UE ability notice Access Network.
For called CS audio call, be the CS territory core network entity MSC, access network entity, or UE can't obtain the information whether this called CS audio call anchors to VCC AS by the prior protocols standard.According to the prior protocols standard, the entity that can obtain the UE ability after called CS audio call establishment stage or foundation comprises MSC and UE, therefore, in order to reduce the modification to the existing protocol standard, the embodiment of the invention selects MSC or UE to obtain the information whether called CS audio call anchors to VCC AS by the protocol specification of revising.
