Realize that by multi-mode controller (MMC) 306 solution that the network between LTE communication module 302 and the cdma communication module 304 switches is very flexibly, the MMC of core can reside in application layer 308 sides or CDMA protocol stack, be that a RIL (Radio Interface Layer, radio interface layer) who operates in side describes for example with MMC below.
MMC mainly is responsible for LTE-EVDO(Evolution Data Only) middleware of system's handoff functionality, by API(Application Programming Interface, application programming interface) mode keeps communicating by letter with LTE, CDMA protocol stack, thereby the seamless packet service of a kind of LTE of striding and EVDO system is provided.
Fig. 4 shows the concrete structure figure of multi-module mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the invention.
Along with cdma network to LTE evolution, the interoperability of data service has become very crucial problem.Present CDMA HRPD(High Rate Packet Data, HRPD (high rate packet data)) network can't be realized switching with the data service interoperability of LTE, need upgrade to eHRPD(evolved High Rate Packet Data, the high-speed packet network of evolution).Particularly under LTE networking initial stage, the incomplete situation of the LTE network coverage, the solution of interoperability is to promote user data service to experience, protect one of effective measures of existing 2G/3G network investment.This multimode terminal will be supported the seamless switching between LTE and the CDMA module data business.
EHRPD is to be evolution and the enhancing of EVDO network to former HRPD.Therefore be to upgrade to related network elements from CDMA EV-DO to eHRPD, upgrade to eAN/ePCF as AN/PCF, PDSN(Packet Data Serving Node, packet data serving node) upgrade to HSGW(HRPD Serving Gateway), i.e. HRPD gateway.Certainly from here as can be seen, for BTS(Base Transceiver Station, base station), eHRPD and HRPD do not have difference, that is to say that eHRPD has improved network integration mode, but make resource can rationally utilize the ability of not improving wireless side that this point is very crucial.From technology in essence, what eHRPD changed is core net partial function and characteristic, to the wireless side function of HRPD without any change.Therefore the eHRPD part is still continued to use HRPD BTS, and the business function eHRPD under the HRPD must support.But it is noted that eHRPD and HRPD adopt different core net, the Centroid of the core net of HRPD is PDSN, and the core node of eHRPD is HSGW, and it can be by the PDSN software upgrading.Two different core net mean different IP addresses, externally do not occur simultaneously, and the end-user service of HRPD is advanced metropolitan area network by the PDSN route, and the end-user service of eHRPD is by the striking out of HSGW-PGW route.
As shown in Figure 4, MMC layer 402 is responsible for the mutual switching of multimode system and control function, it also is one group and offers the api interface that upper level applications is used, such as IMS(IP Multimedia Subsystem, the IP multimedia system), VoIP(Voice over Internet Protocol, the networking telephone), SVLTE(Simultaneous Voice and LTE, LTE and voice network are supported synchronously) etc. application interface; Also comprise configuration-system option table, PDN(Public Data Network, public data network be provided) and QOS(Quality of Service, service quality) etc. information interface.
MMC-LTE interface 404 is control interfaces of realizing carrying out between LTE wave point 406 and the MMC layer 402 transfer of data, and this class interface comprises that System Selection(system selects), Measurement(measures), Handoff(switches), Redirection(resets) and Setup/Release(setting/release).
MMC-CDMA interface 406 adopts remote procedure call (Remote Procedure Call) technology that the method for calling the CDMA protocol stack is provided.Mainly comprise eHRPD(evolved High Rate Packet Data, the high-speed packet network of evolution)/cdma system in network switching interface and set up the PDN interface.
Wherein, when starting up of terminal, the flow process that the network connection of multi-module mobile terminal is set up, and undertaken under the situation of data service by one of them communication network, switch to handling process that alternative communication network carries out data service as shown in Figure 5, its concrete steps following (in conjunction with reference to figure 4):
Step 502, application layer is initiated the data service request, through the Frameworks(ccf layer) send and ask to the CDMA-MMC radio interface layer.
Step 504, CDMA-MMC radio interface layer start MMC layer control thread, receive the upper layer data service request.
Step 506, if default communication pattern is multimode (MultiMode) communication pattern (and the preferential registration of hypothesis LTE network), then send this data service request by the MMC-LTE interface 404 among Fig. 4 to the LTE radio interface layer, and start the LTE network registry and search net (if single mode communication pattern Single is Mode, then only starts LTE/ or CDMA and carry out data dial).
Step 508 is judged whether successful registered network of LTE.If judged result enters step 510 for being, if judged result enters step 516 for not.
Step 510, if LTE success registered network, terminal uses LTE that data service is provided so, carries out transfer of data by Microsoft Loopback Adapter.
Step 514, if the LTE registration failure, MMC layer 402 sends the data service request by MMC-CDMA interface 406 so, request CDMA initiates the data service dialing.
Step 516 after the connection of CDMA data is set up successfully, is carried out transfer of data by Microsoft Loopback Adapter.
Need carry out network when switching detecting, namely when need switch to cdma network with the LTE network, control LTE suspension data business, obtain the information of the LTE data service of having carried out, and set up the connection of CDMA data service, the information of data service is sent to CDMA and controls LTE turn-off data business.In order to guarantee the seamless switching between communication module, need be by communication interface with relevant informations such as data service switching point information, IP address and/or domain name server informations, transfer to from the communication module of turn-off data business and will set up the communication module that data service connects, like this, newly set up the communication module of data service connection and will then carry out data service from switching point according to these relevant informations, guaranteed the uninterrupted of data service, thereby make the interruption of the imperceptible data service of user, promoted user's experience.
Detect and need carry out situation that network switches and have multiplely, for example detecting does not have LTE network signal or network signal quality switching command etc. relatively poor or that detect the user can think that all need carry out network switches.
The CDMA module from switching point, is then carried out data service according to the information of the data service of having carried out, as operations such as data downloads, disconnects the connection of LTE data service then.Though carried out the network switching, the user does not feel the interruption that data service takes place, and has namely realized the seamless switching of data.
Described the network handoff process of multimode terminal side above, and terminal protocol stack and network interaction flow process will be divided scene description below.
1, switching flow between two kinds of networks
An importance that realizes seamless switching between two kinds of technology is exactly the S101 interface, S101 be the terminal protocol stack and eat dishes without rice or wine between protocol interface.By this interface, UE(User Equipment, subscriber equipment) can be when setting up LTE and connecting and enhancement mode access node (eAN) exchange of signaling message.ENB(evolved Node B, evolved base station) and Mobility Management Entity (MME) route data pellucidly between UE and eAN.
1) switching from LTE to EV-DO
This type of switching need be used the call parameter of EVDO network.These parameters are at system information block type 8(SIB8) in transmit as system information, be sent to UE but also can connect by special use., relate to two kinds of network timings and synchronous relevant information here, in order to make required measurement as far as possible efficiently, and accelerated the process of exchange.
(a) initiatively switch
The active that network can be controlled from LTE to EV-DO is switched.For realizing this function, eNB can impel UE that predefined channel and base station are carried out measurement.Different with the inner switching of LTE, the inner switching measured the execution of detected base station.
Switching is divided into registered in advance, switches preparation, carries out and switch 3 stages.
Registered in advance is from the long-range generation of actual switching, and connects by virtual S101 fully and handle.UE can login base station and eHRPD network, and the identity of checking oneself.HSGW can connect and all relevant informations of PCRF rule reception by existing P DN.Finally, the resource in the eHRPD network is all kept.
This process may need the several seconds.Therefore, be absolutely necessary this separation for seamless switching between registered in advance and reality are switched.And this has also improved probability of successful, because arrived error source in the external detection of actual switching point.No matter whether network provides to optimize switch, if provide, in the time must upgrading corresponding registered in advance, can report to UE by the SIB8 that preamble is mentioned.
After the measurement result of receiving UE, finally be to be made switching by eNB determining.In handoff preparation phase, at first can open EVDO by the S101 passage and connect.This connects meeting reserved resources in the uplink and downlink physical channel.HSGW prepares transfer of data by packet data gateway (P-GW), and sets up the S103 passage.At last, successfully open connection to the UE report.Now, UE can switch to its receiver the EVDO carrier wave.Like this, switching preparation has just finished.Still arrive at the data of eNB or the data that do not send, can send it back gateway (S-GW) now, and this also helps to guarantee to be lossless data flow to be transmitted to HSGW. by S103.
After UE successfully inserted eHRPD, switching formally started as the last stage.UE at first can confirm establishment of connection.Next, P-GW can discharge and being connected of HSGW, and upgrades IP and connect.In this stage, at this moment HSGW. also can be distributed in the IP address of UE just can discharge among the EPS still available resource.At this moment, switching is finished.
(b) residential quarter is reselected
If UE is not in the connection of active state, the residential quarter then can take place reselect, rather than carry out the active switching.From E-UTRAN(Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network, the general continental rise wireless access network of evolution) residential quarter reselects according to priority to the residential quarter of EVDO residential quarter and carries out.Given this, the network operation chamber of commerce distributes a priority for each HRPD frequency band kind, and this priority can be compared with the priority of E-UTRAN Serving cell (SC).If the HRPD residential quarter has higher priority, its Ec/I0 is than surpassing specific threshold value, and then UE can carry out the residential quarter to this residential quarter and reselect, and no matter the quality of connection of this SC how.But only when the quality of connection with SC was in unacceptable degree, the HRPD residential quarter that just can select to have lower priority was reselected in the residential quarter.
In RAT(Radio Access Technology, wireless access technology) inside carries out the residential quarter when reselecting, and network always information is unobstructed, and the paging information that imports into so just can obtain handling.In addition, by HSGW network settings are become amended data path.
(c) non-optimized switchover
Optimization mentioned above is switched can realize seamless switching between system, bring best impression for the user simultaneously.But, be optimized switching, network and UE need to change on a large scale.Non-optimized switchover provides another kind of simple method, thereby more economically.Its network architecture does not have S101 and S103 interface.Therefore, can carry out registered in advance by movable LTE connection.But between transfer period, carry out required step, can cause data, services to interrupt significant period of time.
This type of time of interrupting continuing depends on that previous eHRPD connects.For example, authentication be can ignore, and can contextual information and further session information be transmitted from other subnets.But, can only use the UE with two emissions (Tx) device and two receptions (Rx) device to carry out seamless switching.
2) switching from EVDO to LTE
For the switching of this direction, can only rely on the unoptimizable residential quarter to reselect fully.Registered in advance relates generally to appendage, and in this program, UE differentiates and verify the identity of oneself.Subsequently network is carried out suitable configuration, and set up radio bearer, upgrade tracking area subsequently.Now, probably can know the position of UE by network.When P-GW produce to trigger, HSGW can discharge itself and being connected of EPS, and the startup timer.As long as timer is also to the time, registered in advance and will always keep with the session of UE.
