Detailed Description
The first embodiment is as follows:
referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides an emergency service processing method, where the method includes:
101. the method comprises the steps of obtaining emergency service information of a network to be switched of User Equipment (UE) needing to be switched and the emergency service information of the UE.
102. And determining whether a target network supporting the UE to perform the emergency service exists in the network to be switched of the UE according to the emergency service information of the network to be switched of the UE and the emergency service information of the UE, and if so, switching the emergency service performed by the UE to one of the target networks.
The emergency service information of the network to be switched by the UE comprises a service limitation reason indication supported by the network to be switched by the UE, and the emergency service information of the UE comprises the service limitation reason indication of the UE;
or the emergency service information of the network to be switched by the UE comprises an indication whether the network to be switched by the UE supports the emergency service, and the emergency service information of the UE comprises an indication that the emergency service exists in the UE.
The embodiment of the invention determines whether a target network supporting the UE to perform the emergency service exists in the network to be switched of the UE according to the emergency service information of the network to be switched of the UE and the emergency service information of the UE, and if so, the emergency service of the UE is switched to the target network so as to ensure that the emergency service is not interrupted due to the switching of the UE.
Example two:
referring to fig. 2, a second embodiment of the present invention provides an emergency service processing method, where the method is applied to a UE in a limited state and performing an emergency service when a network is switched, and the method includes:
201. and the access network element in the source network acquires the service limitation indication and the service limitation reason indication of the UE.
Due to the particularity of the emergency service, the network may support the emergency service performed by the UE under some special conditions, for example, the UE does not have an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI), or the UE is in a restricted area, or the UE does not obtain network authorization, and the like, if the UE does not have an IMSI, the reason for the restriction of the service is that there is no IMSI; if the UE is in the restricted area, the reason that the service is restricted is that the UE is in the restricted area; if the UE is not authorized by the network, the service limitation reason is not authorized by the network at the moment.
And the access network element in the subsequent source network acquires the service limitation reason of the UE in the source network according to the service limitation reason indication.
202. An access network element in a source network acquires emergency service information of a plurality of networks, wherein the emergency service information of each network comprises: an indication of whether the network supports emergency services, and/or an indication of a reason for limited service supported by the network. In this embodiment, the emergency service information at least includes an indication of a service restriction reason supported by the network. The service limitation reason indication supported by the network identifies the service limitation reason of the UE which is supported by the network to carry out the emergency service. That is, if the service restriction reason of the UE belongs to the service restriction reason identified by the service restriction reason indication supported by the network, the network supports the UE to perform the emergency service.
The plurality of networks are networks to which the UE may be handed over, that is, target networks to which the UE is to be handed over.
In this step, the access network element in the source network may obtain information of the emergency services supported by the multiple networks, where the information is obtained by the access network element in the source network from other network element devices, or obtained by information pre-configured in the access network element.
It should be noted that, the above steps 201 and 202 have no sequence, and do not affect the implementation of the present invention.
203. When knowing that the UE needs to perform network switching, an access network element in a source network determines that the UE is performing emergency service according to the bearer APR information, and determines whether a network supporting the UE with the service limitation reason to perform emergency service exists in a plurality of networks (wherein, the network supporting the UE with the service limitation reason to perform emergency service is called a target network) according to the pre-acquired service limitation reason of the UE and service limitation reason indications supported by the plurality of networks, if so, 204 is executed, and if not, 205 is executed.
The specific implementation manner of this step may be: and respectively judging whether the service limitation reason indication supported by each network in the plurality of networks is matched with the service limitation reason indication of the UE, if a network matched with the service limitation reason indication of the UE exists in the plurality of networks, determining that a target network supporting the UE to carry out emergency service exists in the plurality of networks, wherein the target network is the network matched with the service limitation reason indication of the UE.
204. And switching the ongoing emergency service of the UE into the target network, and ending the process.
205. If the UE has SRVCC capability, initiating SRVCC handover, and switching the ongoing emergency service of the UE from a Packet Switch (PS) domain to a Circuit Switch (CS) domain.
The specific implementation manner of the step is as follows: an access network element in a source network initiates an SRVCC handover request to a mobility management network element, the mobility management network element identifies a voice bearer of an emergency service based on a bearer service class Identity (QCI), and initiates a conversion from a PS domain to a CS domain to a target Mobile Switching Center (MSC) for the voice bearer of the emergency service.
Wherein, step 201 can be implemented at least in the following ways:
the first mode is as follows: as shown in fig. 3, includes:
301. the UE initiates an attach request message to an access network element.
If the UE knows that it is in the restricted state, the attach request message sent in this step is an emergency attach request message.
302. The access network element forwards the attach request message to the mobility management network element.
303. And executing an attachment process, determining the service limitation of the UE in the attachment process, and recording the reason of the service limitation.
Specifically, in the attaching process, acquiring subscription data of the UE, authenticating the UE, determining whether the UE is in a restricted area according to the subscription data of the UE, and if the UE is in the restricted area, recording the service restriction reason because the UE is in the restricted area; if the authentication of the UE fails, for example, the IMSI of the UE is false, the cause of the limited service is recorded as the authentication failure, and so on.
304-.
The second mode is as follows: the method may be applicable to the tracking area update of the UE in an idle state, the tracking area update of the UE in a connected state, or the tracking area update of the UE after handover, for example, in a process that the mobility management network element sends a tracking area accept message TAUAccept to the UE, where a Downlink NAS transport message Downlink NAS transport sent by the mobility management network element to the access network element carries the service limitation indication and the service limitation reason indication of the UE.
The third mode is as follows: the UE is switched in a connected state, and the service limitation in the switched network is limited, and the service limitation indication and the service limitation reason indication of the UE of the target access network element need to be notified.
Specifically, the third implementation manner may be any one of the following manner a or manner B:
mode A: in the X2-based handover procedure, the mobility management element notifies the target access network element of the traffic limitation indication and the traffic limitation reason indication of the UE, for example, notifies the target access network element (i.e., the access network element in step 201) through a path switch request response message (path switch request ack).
Mode B: at S1-based handover, the mobility management element may notify the target access network element UE of the service restriction indication and the service restriction reason indication through a handover request message (handover request).
The fourth mode is that: in the session management process, the UE notifies the access network element of its own traffic limitation indication and traffic limitation reason indication, for example, the UE may carry the traffic limitation indication and traffic limitation reason indication of the UE in a Bearer Setup Request/PDN connection Request PDN connectivity access message sent by the UE to the access network element.
The fifth mode is as follows: in the modification process of the subscription data, the service restriction indication and the service restriction reason indication of the UE are notified to the access network element, for example, after the UE is attached (may be a normal attachment or an emergency attachment), the subscription data of the UE changes, and when the subscription data is re-inserted, the mobility management network element finds that the UE is service restricted at this time, and may notify the access network element of the service restriction indication and the service restriction reason indication of the UE in a bearer modification request or Downlink NAS transport message transmitted by a Downlink non-access stratum.
It should be noted that: in the first implementation manner (notifying the service limitation indication and the service limitation reason indication of the UE in the attach process), the second implementation manner (notifying the access network element of the service limitation indication and the service limitation reason indication of the UE in the tracking area update process), the third implementation manner (notifying the access network element of the service limitation indication and the service limitation reason indication of the UE in the handover process), and the fifth implementation manner (notifying the access network element of the service limitation indication and the service limitation reason indication of the UE in the modification process of the subscription data), when the service limitation indication and the service limitation reason indication of the UE are notified to the access network element, it is possible that the UE does not perform an emergency service, and the subsequent UE initiates the emergency service.
Wherein, step 202 can be implemented at least as follows:
the first implementation mode comprises the following steps: the mobility management network element configures emergency service information of multiple networks related to the mobility management network element, where the multiple networks are networks to which the UE may be switched, and notifies the access network element of the emergency service information of the multiple networks. In particular, the mobility management element may inform the access network element in the following procedures, but not limited to these procedures: when UE is attached to a network, a mobility management network element establishes an initial context setup message to notify emergency service information of a plurality of networks to an access network element through an initial context; or, in the tracking area updating process, the mobility management network element notifies the access network element attached to the UE of the emergency service information of the multiple networks related to the mobility management network element.
The second implementation mode comprises the following steps: the mobility management element configures emergency service information of multiple networks related to the mobility management element, where the multiple networks are networks to which the UE may be handed over, and in an X2-based handover process, the mobility management element (i.e., the source side mobility management element) notifies emergency service information of other networks related to the mobility management element to an access network element through a Path switch request response message Path switch request ack.
The third implementation mode comprises the following steps: the access network element obtains the emergency service information of a plurality of networks from the mobility management network element at the target side: for example, during handover, the target side mobility management element notifies the source side mobility management element of the emergency service information of the target network through a Forward handover response message Forward handover response, and then the source side mobility management element notifies the source side access element of the emergency service information of the target network through a handover command, and the source side access element can store the emergency service information of the networks, so that the source side access network can subsequently select the handover target network for the UE.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, a mobility management network element in a source network may also determine whether a target network supporting the UE to perform an emergency service exists according to the emergency service information of the network to be switched by the UE and the emergency service information of the UE, if the target network exists, the UE is switched to one of the target networks to perform the emergency service, and if the target network does not exist, SRVCC switching is initiated, or non-3 GPP switching is initiated, the emergency service of the UE is switched to a CS domain, so as to ensure normal operation of the emergency service of the UE.
In the second embodiment of the present invention, when the UE in the limited state is performing the emergency service, according to the indication of the service limitation reasons supported by the multiple networks, the network supporting the UE to perform the emergency service is searched in the multiple networks, if the network supporting the UE to perform the emergency service is found, the UE is switched to the network supporting the UE to perform the emergency service, and if the network supporting the UE to perform the emergency service is not found, the emergency service of the UE is switched from the PS domain to the CS domain, so that it is ensured that the emergency service performed by the UE is not interrupted due to the switching.
Example three:
referring to fig. 4, a third embodiment of the present invention provides an emergency service processing method, where the method is applied to a UE in a normal state and performing an emergency service when a network is switched, and the method includes:
401. an access network element in a source network acquires emergency service information of a plurality of networks, wherein the acquired emergency service information supported by each network comprises: an indication of whether the network supports emergency services.
In this step, the manner in which the access network element in the source network acquires the emergency service information of the multiple networks is similar to the five implementation manners in step 201 in embodiment two, and details are not described here again.
402. When it is known that the UE needs to perform network handover, an access network element in the source network determines that the UE is performing an emergency service according to the bearer APR information, where the bearer APR information may be an indication that the UE has the emergency service, and searches whether a network supporting the emergency service exists in the multiple networks according to the obtained indication whether each network supports the emergency service in the multiple networks, if so, execute 403, and if not, end the process.
403. And switching the emergency service which is carried out by the UE into a network which supports the emergency service in the plurality of networks.
If more than two networks support the emergency service, selecting one network, switching the emergency service of the UE into the selected network, and if only one network supports the emergency service, switching the ongoing emergency service of the UE into the network.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, a mobility management network element in a source network may also determine whether a target network supporting the UE to perform an emergency service exists according to the emergency service information of the network to be switched by the UE and the emergency service information of the UE, switch the UE to one of the target networks to perform the emergency service if the target network exists, and initiate SRVCC handover if the target network does not exist, or initiate non-3 GPP handover, switch the emergency service of the UE to a CS domain, thereby ensuring normal operation of the emergency service of the UE.
In the third embodiment of the present invention, when the UE is performing the emergency service, a network supporting the emergency service is searched in the plurality of networks according to the indication whether the plurality of networks support the emergency service, and if the network supporting the emergency service is found, the emergency service supported by the UE is switched to the found network.
Example four:
referring to fig. 5, a fourth embodiment of the present invention provides an emergency service processing method, where the method is applied to a UE in a limited state and performing an emergency service when a network is switched, and the method includes:
501. and the source access network element sends a switching request message to the source mobility management network element.
502. The source mobility management network element sends a forwarding switching request message to a target mobility management network element, wherein the message comprises: the service limitation reason indication of the UE can also comprise the service limitation indication of the UE in the message.
The target mobility management network element is a mobility management network element in a network to be switched by the UE.
503. And the target mobility management network element determines the reason of the service limitation of the UE according to the received indication of the reason of the service limitation of the UE, confirms whether the target network supports the UE with the reason of the service limitation to carry out emergency service, if so, executes 504, and if not, executes 507.
The specific implementation manner of this step may be: and determining whether the service limitation reason indication supported by the target network is matched with the service limitation reason indication of the UE, and if so, determining that the target network supports the UE to perform emergency service.
504. And the target mobility management network element sends a load establishing request to the target service gateway, the target service gateway sends a load establishing response to the target mobility management network element, and a load for transmitting data between the target mobility management network element and the target service gateway is established.
505. And the target mobility management network element sends a switching request to the target access network element, and the target access network element sends a switching confirmation to the target mobility management network element.
506. The target mobility management network element sends a load establishing request to the target service gateway, the target service gateway sends a load establishing response to the target mobility management network element, and a load established by the forwarding data of the source network to the target network is established.
507. The target mobility management network element sends a forward switching response message to the source mobility management network element, if the step 503 determines that the target network does not support the UE to perform the emergency service, the forward switching response message carries an indication that the target network does not support the UE to perform the emergency service, and if the step 503 determines that the target network supports the UE to perform the emergency service, the forward switching response message carries an indication that the target network supports the UE to perform the emergency service; or, no matter whether the target network supports the UE to perform the emergency service, the forward handover response message sent by the target mobility management network element to the source mobility management network element carries the service limitation indication supported by the target network.
Or, when the forward switch response message carries the indication cell, the target network supports the UE to perform the emergency service, and the target network does not support the UE to perform the emergency service; or, when the forward switch response message carries the indication cell, the target network does not support the UE to perform the emergency service, and the forward switch response message does not carry the indication cell, the target network supports the UE to perform the emergency service.
For example, if a byte is used to identify the reason for supporting the service restriction, if a bit in the byte is 1, it indicates that the corresponding reason for supporting the service restriction is supported.
508. The source mobility management network element determines whether the target network supports the UE to perform the emergency service according to the forward handover response message, that is, determines whether the target network supports the UE having the service restriction reason to perform the emergency service, if so, sends a bearer creation request to the source serving gateway, and the source serving gateway sends a bearer creation response to the source mobility management network element, and continues to execute 509, if not, reselects a target network, and executes step 502.
509. And the source mobility management network element sends a switching command to the source access network element.
510. And the source access network element sends a switching command to the UE.
If the source mobility management network element determines that the target network does not support the UE for the emergency service in step 508, the source mobility management network element sends a handover preparation failure message (handover failure) to the source access network element, where the message carries an indication that the target network does not support the UE for the emergency service.
And subsequently, the access network element re-initiates the switching in the PS domain, or for the UE with the SRVCC capability, the access network element initiates the SRVCC switching to switch the emergency service from the PS domain to the CS domain, and the SRVCC switching can switch all services to the CS domain, or only switch the bearer of the emergency service away and suspend the bearers of other non-emergency services. After the emergency service is completed, the emergency service can be switched back to the PS domain.
For a UE without SRVCC capability, or in a case that a UE supporting emergency service cannot be found within a specific time, the cell may be carried in the message to indicate that the UE cannot complete handover, and specifically, the cell may include a reason indication indicating that handover cannot be completed, for example, the target network does not support emergency service performed by the UE with the service restriction reason. After receiving the cell, the UE can initiate the switching of the non-3 GPP network to ensure that the emergency service is not interrupted.
The embodiment of the invention judges whether the network supports the UE to carry out the emergency service according to the emergency service information supported by the target network to be switched of the UE, and determines whether the UE is allowed to be switched to the network according to the judgment result so as to ensure that the emergency service is not interrupted due to the switching of the UE.
Example five:
the fifth embodiment of the present invention provides an emergency service processing method, which is applicable to a UE in a normal state and performing an emergency service when a network handover occurs, and the method is different from the fourth embodiment in that: in step 502, the source mobility management element sends a forward-to-switch request message to the target mobility management element, where the forward-to-switch request message carries an indication that the UE has the emergency service, and the indication indicates that the UE is performing the emergency service, and in step 503, the target mobility management element determines whether the target network supports the emergency service, and in step 507, a forward-to-switch response message carries an indication whether the target network supports the emergency service. In step 508, when the source mobility management network element determines that the target network supports the emergency service, the source mobility management network element sends a request for creating a bearer to the source serving gateway, and the source serving gateway sends a response for creating a bearer to the source mobility management network element.
If the target network does not support the emergency service, the access network element may be notified in a handover preparation failure message (handover failure) that the target network does not support the emergency service. And the subsequent access network element re-initiates the switching in the PS domain or initiates the SRVCC switching to switch the ongoing emergency service of the UE from the PS domain to the CS domain.
For the UE without SRVCC capability, or under the condition that the UE cannot be found to support emergency service within a specific time, the cell may be carried in the message to indicate that the UE cannot complete handover, and after receiving the cell, the UE may initiate handover of the non-3 GPP network.
The embodiment of the invention judges whether the target network supports the emergency service according to the emergency service information supported by the target network to be switched by the UE, and determines whether the UE is allowed to be switched to the target network according to the judgment result so as to ensure that the emergency service is not interrupted due to the switching of the UE.
Example six:
