Embodiment
In order to make those skilled in the art person understand the scheme of the embodiment of the invention better, the embodiment of the invention is done further to specify below in conjunction with accompanying drawing and execution mode.
With reference to Fig. 2, be the flow chart that the embodiment of the invention realizes the method that the local IP of subscriber equipment inserts, mainly may further comprise the steps:
Step 201, HeNB receives the attach request of UE, and said attach request is sent to MME.
In said attach request, carry the information that UE provides, whether need carry out local IP with indication UE and insert; Such as being linked into home network or local internet; Further, if system supports UE to be linked into the scene of a plurality of home networks simultaneously, then in said attach request, can also carry the information whether indication UE is linked into a plurality of home networks; Such as carrying APN (APN) parameter in the said attach request, show that then UE need be linked into a plurality of home networks.
After MME receives said attach request, can confirm that the UE needs carry out local IP and insert according to the information that UE in the said attach request provides.Need local IP access if confirm UE, then set up SAE and carry, and the SAE carrying of setting up is sent to HeNB for the local IP access of UE.
Step 202, what receive the MME transmission is that the SAE that the local IP access of UE is set up carries.
Step 203 is linked into home network or local internet through said SAE carrying with UE.
For the UE that is linked into home network or local internet; SAE carries and is made up of to the radio bearer of HeNB UE; HeNB directly is routed to these data in home network or the local internet after receiving and carrying the data of the UE on the corresponding radio bearer of eating dishes without rice or wine with these SAE.
Being linked into home network with UE below is example, and the embodiment of the invention is further elaborated.
With reference to Fig. 3, be the sketch map that UE inserts the attaching process of home network in the embodiment of the invention through HeNB.
Step 301, UE initiates attaching process to HeNB, sends Attach Request (attach request) message.
Step 302:HeNB sends to MME through carrying AttachRequest message among the Initial UE Message (initial UE message).
Step 303, the information that provides among the Attach Request of MME according to UE are judged UE and are linked into home network, and MME need not send transport addresses information and the GTP tunnel information of the S-GW (gateway) of all corresponding carryings of this home network to HeNB.
For this reason; MME can put sky with Transport Layer Address (transport layer address) that carries in Initial Context Setup Request (initial context request) message that sends to HeNB and GTP (general packet wireless service tunnel protocol) TEID (termination point of a tunnel sign); Be that IP address and TEID value are set to complete zero; Perhaps directly do not carry these two parameters; The essential option that just presence (existence) of these two parameters is defined from original standard changes option into, and the carrying of home network is not carried; Perhaps the Transport LayerAddress parameter of carrying in the Initial Context Setup Request message is made as the IP address of HeNB.
If system supports UE to be linked into the scene of a plurality of home networks simultaneously, can also in this message, indicate the binding relationship of carrying of UE home network and home network APN, such as in message, carrying APN IE.HeNB can be routed to the IP packet of UE and different home network in the corresponding home network according to this information.
Step 304, HeNB sends RRC Connection Reconfiguration (the RRC connection is reshuffled) message to UE, comprises radio bearer parameter in the message.
Step 305, UE is to UE response RRC Connection Complete (RRC connects completion) message.
Step 306; For the UE that is linked into home network; SAE carries and is made up of to the radio bearer of HeNB UE; Do not have the S1 user plane bearer of HeNB, after HeNB receives InitialContext Setup Request message, do not have corresponding Transport LayerAddress and GTP TEID information if find some carrying to S-GW; If perhaps Transport Layer Address is the IP address of HeNB; To think that these carryings are for inserting the SAE carrying that home network is set up, be not that the SAE between HeNB and the S-GW carries, and need not be that these carry the Transport Layer Address and the GTP TEID information of distributing corresponding S1-U interface (interface between gateway and the UE).HeNB will carry the data that receive on the corresponding radio bearer of eating dishes without rice or wine with these SAE and be routed directly in the home network.
Also Transport LayerAddress and GTP TEID put sky (being that IP address and GTP TEID value are set to complete zero) to HeNB in the Initial Context Setup Response message of returning; Perhaps directly do not carry these two parameters; The essential option that just presence of these two parameters is defined from original standard changes option into, and the carrying of home network is not carried; Perhaps the Transport Layer Address in the Initial ContextSetup Response message is set to the IP address of HeNB.
If system supports UE to be linked into the scene of a plurality of home networks simultaneously; In Initial Context SetupRequest message, can indicate the binding relationship of carrying of UE home network and home network APN; HeNB is in response message; Also can return the home network carrying of MME indication and the binding relationship of home network APN, and indicate the carrying of successfully foundation and the beared information of failure.
With reference to Fig. 4, be the sketch map that UE inserts the service request procedure behind the home network in the embodiment of the invention through HeNB.
Step 401, UE initiates NAS (network insertion service) process to HeNB, sends Service Request (services request) message.
Step 402, HeNB sends to MME through carrying ServiceRequest message among the Initial UE Message (initial UE message).
Step 403 is carried out the network authentication process between UE and HSS (home subscriber server).
Step 404; MME need not send transport addresses information and the GTP tunnel information that UE is linked into the S-GW of all corresponding carryings of home network to HeNB; MME can put sky with the Transport Layer Address and the GTP TEID that carry in the Initial Context Setup Request message that sends to HeNB; Be that IP address and TEID value are set to complete zero; Perhaps directly do not carry these two parameters, the essential option that just presence of this two IE is defined from original standard changes option into, and the carrying of home network is not carried; Perhaps the Transport Layer Address parameter of carrying in the Initial Context Setup Request message is made as the IP address of HeNB.
If system supports UE to be linked into the scene of a plurality of home networks simultaneously, MME need indicate the binding relationship of carrying of UE home network and home network APN in this message, such as in message, carrying APNIE.HeNB can be routed to the IP packet of UE and different home network in the corresponding home network according to this information.
Step 405, the radio bearer between HeNB and UE is set up process.
Step 406, UE sends upstream data to S-GW.
Step 407; For the UE that is linked into home network, SAE carries and is made up of to the radio bearer of HeNB UE, does not have the S1 user plane bearer of HeNB to S-GW; When HeNB receives InitialContext Setup Request message; Do not have corresponding Transport LayerAddress and GTP TEID information if find some carrying,, will think that these carryings are for inserting the SAE carrying that home network is set up if perhaps Transport Layer Address is the IP address of HeNB; Not being the SAE carrying between HeNB and the S-GW, need not be that these carry the TransportLayer Address and the GTP TEID information of distributing corresponding S1-U interface.HeNB will carry the data that receive on the corresponding radio bearer of eating dishes without rice or wine with these SAE and be routed directly in the home network.
HeNB also puts sky with Transport LayerAddress and GTP TEID in the Initial Context Setup Response message of returning; Be that IP address and TEID value are set to complete zero; Perhaps directly do not carry these two parameters; The essential option that just presence of this two IE is defined from original standard changes option into, and the carrying of home network is not carried; Perhaps the Transport Layer Address in the Initial Context SetupResponse message is set to the IP address of HeNB.
If system supports UE to be linked into the scene of a plurality of home networks simultaneously; MME indicates the binding relationship of carrying of UE home network and home network APN in Initial ContextSetup Request message; Then HeNB is in Initial Context Setup Response message; Also can return the home network carrying of MME indication and the binding relationship of home network APN, and indicate the carrying of successfully foundation and the beared information of failure.
Step 408~412nd, core net is upgraded the process of the beared information of UE, and this process is identical with existing process.Specific as follows:
Step 408, MME sends Update Bearer Request (more new bearer request) message to S-GW.
Step 409, S-GW sends to PDN GW (grouped data network gateway) with the Update Bearer Request message of receiving.
Step 410 after PDN GW receives Update Bearer Request message, is carried out IP connection access network network session modification process with PCRF ("Policy and Charging Rules Function) entity, obtains PCC (strategy and the control of chargeing) rule.
Step 411, PDN GW sends Update Bearer Response (more new bearer response) message to S-GW.
Step 412, S-GW sends to MME with the Update Bearer Response message of receiving.
It is thus clear that, utilize the method for the embodiment of the invention, can wireless access be linked into home network to the UE of the support IP ability of HeNB, and can not influence the network that UE is linked into operator.
