Description

User roaming method and ICS enhanced network
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a roaming technology in an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) network architecture, and in particular, to an IMS Centralized Service (ICS) based user roaming method and an ICS enhanced network.
Background
An Internet Protocol (IP) multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is an IP-based Network architecture proposed by the third generation partnership Project (3 GPP), which constructs an open and flexible service environment, supports multimedia applications, and provides rich multimedia services to users.
The IMS is not related to an access technology, and may provide services for Packet Switching (PS) access networks such as General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), and may also provide services for Mobile cellular networks such as Global System for Mobile communications (GSM) and Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS).
Mobile networks such as GSM and UMTS employ circuit-switched technologies, called Circuit Switched (CS) domain, which can provide basic voice services for users, as well as supplementary services based on voice services. When the CS domain accesses the IMS, it evolves to an access mode, and the services are provided by the IMS in a unified manner, and this technology is called IMS Centralized Service (ICS).
Fig. 1 is an architecture diagram of an IMS centralized control service, as shown in fig. 1, including: user Equipment (UE) 101, a global System for Mobile communications Radio Access Network (UTRAN, Universal Mobile telecommunications System Radio Access Network)/GSM EDGE Radio Access Network (GERAN, GSM EDGE Radio Access Network)102, an ICS Mobile switching Center Server (ICSMSC Server, ICS Mobile Switch Center Server)103, a circuit domain Media Gateway (CS-MGW, CS Media Gateway)104, a Home Subscriber Server (HSS, Home Subscriber Server)105, a Call Session Control Function entity (CSCF, Call Session Control Function)106, and a Telephony Application Server (TAS, Telephony Application Server) 107; wherein,
UTRAN/GERAN 102, is used for taking charge of the radio resource access control and management;
the ICS MSC Server 103, in addition to completing the access, mobility management, and call control functions of the CS user equipment, also serves as a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) user agent, and implements the conversion between the CS signaling and the SIP message, instead of accessing the user to the IMS.
CS-MGW 104 for providing media resources and managing and controlling the media resources;
HSS 105 is configured to store subscription data of a subscriber and provide support for a call or session.
The CSCF 106 is further divided into an Interrogating CSCF (I-CSCF) and a Serving CSCF (S-CSCF). The I-CSCF interacts with the HSS to request the HSS to allocate the S-CSCF to the user or inquire the S-CSCF where the user is located; the S-CSCF provides functions for registration, call control, etc. for the user.
TAS 107, responsible for handling traditional CS domain telephony traffic.
UE 101 is accessed to ICS MSC Server 103 through CS control signaling, ICS MSC Server acts as user agent, replaces CS user equipment 101 to access CSCF 106 of IMS network, and establishes session connection with remote user, at the same time ICS MSC Server 103 controls CS-MGW 104 to complete the conversion between the media stream on CS bearing and the media stream on IP bearing, and establishes the media connection between user equipment 101 and remote user.
From the perspective of network development, it is accepted by the industry that the core network is finally developed to be uniformly managed by IMS, and 3GPP has established ICS technology in release 8, and enhanced access of the CS network to the IMS network through an MSC Server, which is a key technology for the evolution of the CS network to the IMS network. However, the existing ICS technology does not consider reducing the cost of the ICS MSC, and the existing standard only enhances based on the traditional Mobile Switching Center (MSC) to support the ICS service triggering, and actually, if the service is uniformly migrated to the IMS network, the ICS MSC can be simplified to reduce the cost of the core network.
Therefore, an ICS enhanced network architecture is proposed in the industry to weaken the function of the MSC Server, and compared with the traditional ICS, the CS network is completely sunk to an access layer, so that the network structure is simpler and does not depend on the CS Core and a No. seven signaling network.
Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of an ICS enhanced network architecture, as shown in fig. 2, and on the basis of the structure shown in fig. 1, the following new network elements are included:
the difference between the Mobile Access gateway Control Function entity (mAGCF) 203 and the mAGCF203 and the ICS MSC Server 103 lies in that the mAGCF mainly provides signaling conversion between CS and SIP, does not have the Access management and service Control functions of the conventional CS domain MSC Server to the user any more, and cancels the interface with the conventional CS network, and the interworking between the mAGCF203 and the conventional CS network is realized by the Media gateway Control Function entity (MGCF, Media Gate Control Function) of the IMS network.
Fig. 3 is a flow chart of ICS enhanced service registration, as shown in fig. 3, a terminal accesses to an IMS network through mAGCF, and initiates registration in the IMS network. For simplicity, the flow in fig. 3 focuses on the location update procedure and the IMS registration procedure of the CS domain, and omits the security authentication procedure therein.
The ICS enhanced registration procedure comprises the following steps:
step 301-step 302, the UE initiates a CS attach procedure in the CS access network, and sends a CS location update request to the ICS MSC Server, where the message carries an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) of the UE;
step 303, the ICS MSC Server converts the received location update request message into an SIP register message, obtains the User home domain name according to the Identity IMSI, and sends a register message to the UE home domain IMS network entry network element I-CSCF, where the register message carries a Private User Identity (PVI, Private User Identity) derived by the ICS MSC Server according to the IMSI of the UE.
Step 304, the I-CSCF receives the registration message, and inquires the registration state from the HSS, wherein the message carries the PVI of the UE. The HSS searches the current terminal registration state according to the PVI of the UE, if the registration is re-registered, the HSS returns the S-CSCF address registered by the UE, and if the registration is first registered, the HSS selects one S-CSCF address or returns one S-CSCF capability list;
step 305, if the HSS returns the S-CSCF address information, the I-CSCF forwards the registration request message to the S-CSCF, if the HSS returns the S-CSCF capability list, the I-CSCF selects an S-CSCF with the capability meeting the requirement and forwards the registration request message to the S-CSCF;
step 306, the S-CSCF receives the registration request message and may trigger the authentication procedure, which is not described herein too much for the sake of simplicity;
step 307, the S-CSCF acquires user service subscription data from the HSS;
step 308, the S-CSCF returns a registration success message to the mAGCF, where the message carries a Public User Identity (PUI) list available for the UE and a default PUI;
step 309, the mAGCF saves the S-CFCF address and the user identification list and the default PUI, and returns a location update success message to the UE;
in the ICS enhancement technology, the MSC function is weakened, no longer has a service processing function, and is only responsible for protocol conversion and resource management work, and service triggering and control are both centralized to the home IMS core network, whereas for the conventional CS network roaming mechanism, service control and triggering are handled by the visited MSC, so that according to the existing ICS enhancement technology, when the conventional user roams to the network described in the background technology, service cannot be triggered.
