Embodiment
Hereinafter will describe the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments in detail.Need to prove that under the situation of not conflicting, embodiment and the feature among the embodiment among the application can make up mutually.
Embodiment one
Fig. 3 is a structural representation of realizing system according to the single channel voice continuity of the embodiment of the invention one, comprising: UTRAN/GERAN 10, eMSC 20, MME 30, grouped data network gateway (comprising S-GW and P-GW) 40 and E-UTRAN 50.Wherein, UTRAN/GERAN 10, are used to notify eMSC 20 to prepare UE is switched to the PS territory network that is inserted by E-UTRAN 50 by CS territory network; EMSC 20, are used to notify the MME 30 of PS territory network to prepare UE is switched to PS territory network; MME 30, be used to judge whether current PS territory network exists the carrying of UE, be judged as under the situation not, ask this PS territory grouping of network data network gateway 40 to create carrying for UE, and after receiving the load creating success response that grouped data network gateway 40 returns, notice E-UTRAN distributes interface-free resources for this carrying, and switches to PS territory network by source network (being CS territory network) notice UE; Grouped data network gateway 40 is used to UE to create carrying, after UE switches to PS territory network, by the voice medium between this carrying transmission UE and the far-end; E-UTRAN 50, and the carrying that is used to grouped data network gateway 40 to create distributes interface-free resources, so that after UE switches to PS territory network, by the voice medium between this carrying transmission UE and the far-end.
In the present embodiment, if MME 30 judges current PS territory network and has the carrying of UE, then do not need notice packet data network gateway 40 to create carrying, do not need to notify E-UTRAN 50 to distribute interface-free resources yet, after UE switches to PS territory network, utilize the voice medium between this carrying transmission UE and the far-end.
In the correlation technique after UE switches to objective network, UE creates required carrying at objective network again, and then after user ascription area IMS network succeeds in registration and far-end carry out upgraded operation, just recover the speech communication between UE and far-end, thereby cause the voice interruption time longer.And in the system that present embodiment provides, when the handoff procedure of SR UE being carried out by CS territory to PS territory, before notice UE switches to objective network, MME 30 first notification target grouping of network data network gateway 40 and E-UTRAN 50 carry out the process of load creating and resource allocation, thereby can reduce the time of voice interruption between UE and far-end, improve user experience.
An interchangeable embodiment as present embodiment, source MSC does not have the enhancing ability, therefore, the single channel voice continuity of this embodiment realizes that system also comprises source MSC 60, carry out interacting message by source MSC 60 between UTRAN/GERAN 10 and the eMSC 20, Fig. 4 is the optimum decision system configuration diagram according to present embodiment.In Fig. 4, conventional eMSC 20 is expanded, this eMSC 20 receive handover preparation request message that source MSC 60 sends can be according to message in Target cell forwards to target MME 30; MME 30 can be used for after the message that receives eMSC 20, and request target network (being PS territory network) is created carrying for UE, and distributes interface-free resources, and switches to PS territory network by source MSC 60, eMSC 20, UTRAN/GERAN 10 by UE.
By this preferred embodiment, can not possess under the situation of enhancing ability at source MSC 60, before UE switches to objective network, at objective network is that UE creates carrying, and distribution interface-free resources, thereby guaranteed that source MSC 60 does not possess under the situation of enhancing ability, also can reduce the break period of the conversation between UE and the far-end.
Fig. 5 is the flow chart according to the single channel voice continuity implementation method of the embodiment of the invention one, and this method is used for keeping voice continuous at UE from the process that CS territory network switches to PS territory network, mainly may further comprise the steps (step S502-step S508):
Step S502, UTRAN/GERAN prepares UE is switched to PS territory network by CS territory network by the MME of eMSC notice PS territory network;
For example, source MSC is the MSC (being eMSC) of enhancement mode, then UTRAN/GERAN reports according to the wireless measurement that UE reports, decision is initiated to insert between network and is switched, sending handoff request message informing eMSC to eMSC prepares UE is switched to objective network, eMSC sends notice to MME again, and notice is prepared UE is switched to objective network; Source MSC is the MSC of non-enhancement mode, then UTRAN/GERAN reports according to the wireless measurement that UE reports, decision is initiated to insert between network and is switched, send handoff request message to source MSC, the target cell information that source MSC carries according to handoff request, send switching preparation message informing eMSC to eMSC and prepare UE is switched to objective network, eMSC reinforms MME.
Step S504, MME determine that there is not the carrying of this UE in PS territory network, and request PS territory grouping of network data network gateway (comprising S-GW and P-GW) is created carrying for this UE, and notice E-UTRAN distributes interface-free resources for this carrying;
For example, MME can be according to the identify label of the UE that carries in the message of the UTRAN/GERAN that receives by the eMSC transmission, determine that there is not the carrying of this UE in PS territory network, then MME can check further whether this UE registers in MME, if thereby do not have, the HSS of MME under this UE (for example sends position updating request, Update Location Request) obtains user contracting data, HSS (for example upgrades response message to the MME home position, Update Location Ack), the user contracting data that carries in the message comprises packet data network (Packet Data Network the abbreviates PDN as) contextual information of UE and sets up default bearer relevant information QoS.
MME is according to the S-GW and the P-GW of the user contracting data select target network of UE, and the S-GW/P-GW in objective network sends and creates conversation request message (for example, Create Session Request), creates default bearer.In the establishment conversation request response message (for example, Create Session Response) that receives from S-GW/P-GW, MME sends handoff request message (for example, HO Request) to E-UTRAN, and notice E-UTRAN distributes the Radio Resource of this carrying.Receiving E-UTRAN handover acknowledge message (HO ACK), returning CS to PS handover acknowledge message (CS to PSHO Response), carrying in the message and insert the access parameter of assigned radio resource to eMSC.After UE switches to objective network, also can be by the speech data between this dedicated bearer transmission UE and the far-end.
Preferably, MME can also carry single channel voice continuity sign (SRVCC Indicator in the establishment conversation request message that S-GW/P-GW sends, abbreviate SI as), S-GW/P-GW is receiving the establishment conversation request message according to SI, is that UE distributes the voice dedicated bearer; S-GW/P-GW carries this dedicated bearer in the establishment session response message of returning to MME sign, the sign that MME carries this dedicated bearer in the handoff request message that sends to E-UTRAN, notice E-UTRAN distributes the Radio Resource of this dedicated bearer.After UE switches to objective network, also can be by the speech data between this dedicated bearer transmission UE and the far-end.
Step S506, MME switches to PS territory network by source network (being CS territory network) notice UE;
For example, MME sends CS to PS handover acknowledge message to eMSC, eMSC returns to switch to source MSC and prepares response message, source MSC returns handover acknowledge message (perhaps to GERAN/UTRAN, if source MSC has the enhancing ability, then eMSC and source MSC are same entity, and eMSC directly returns handover acknowledge message to GERAN/UTRAN), GERAN/UTRAN switches to EUTRAN by switching command message notice UE.Wherein, above-mentioned CS to PS handover acknowledge message, switching prepare to carry in response message and the switching command message access parameter of EUTRAN assigned radio resource, and UE is linked into PS territory network according to the access parameter of this Radio Resource resource.
After step S508, UE switched to PS territory network, it was the carrying transmission UE of UE establishment and the voice medium between the far-end that the interface-free resources of utilizing E-UTRAN to distribute is passed through.
For example, UE and eMSC can be by mutual mutual IP address and the port numbers of above-mentioned flow process, UE or eMSC are according to the IP address and the port numbers of opposite end, can be connected with one section interim medium of establishment between the eMSC at UE, connect by these medium, transmission UE switches to behind the network of PS territory the voice medium with far-end, can further reduce the time of voice interruption like this.
Perhaps, also can not create interim medium between UE and eMSC connects, but according to flow performing shown in Figure 2, difference is, after UE switches to PS territory network, because objective network is created carrying for UE, therefore do not need again execution in step 209, after the IMS distant end media was upgraded successfully, the carrying (lacking carrying or dedicated bearer) that utilizes step S504 to create was set up and is switched rear path, the voice medium between transmission UE and the far-end.
Above-mentioned single channel voice continuity implementation method by present embodiment, can be before UE switches to objective network, at objective network is that UE creates carrying, the problem of having avoided creating carrying again after UE switches to objective network and having caused speech communication lengthening break period has improved user experience.
