Refer to Fig. 2, Fig. 2 is the flow chart of a shunt method execution mode of the application's wireless network, and the shunt method of present embodiment wireless network is described with the angle of above-mentioned access device, and the shunt method of present embodiment wireless network comprises:
Step S101: access device detects the wireless network shunting request of carrying business information.
If user terminal wish by service distributing to WLAN on time, carry business information and send wireless network shunting to the access device of wireless access network end and ask.Wireless network shunting request sends in the form of a message, the business information of request shunting can be comprised in this request message, such as transmission control protocol/User Datagram Protocol (Transmission Control Protocol/User Datagram Protocol, TCP/UDP) five-tuple, traffic flow template (Traffic Flow Template, TFT), application identities etc. of IP header.Five-tuple refers to by source IP address, source port, object IP address, destination interface, and a set of transport layer protocol number these five amount compositions.Such as: 192.168.1.1,0000, TCP, 21.14.88.76,80 just constitute a five-tuple.
User terminal can judge whether to need by certain service distributing to WLAN by self prewired distributing strategy or from the distributing strategy that ANDSF entity obtains, if needed, sends out wireless network shunting request message.If the business information of carrying in shunting request message is TFT, then this message need in evolved packet system (Evolved Packet System, EPS) loading establishing process user terminal obtain network to TFT after just send out this message.The business information that this message comprises can comprise many.This message also can reuse existing message, such as radio resource control (Radio Resource Control, RRC) connection setup complete message, represents request WLAN shunt by increasing parameter.
In another implementation, shunting request can be sent by equipment of the core network to access device.As equipment of the core network such as grouped data network gateway (Packet Data Network Gateway, PDN-GW) or strategy and billing function unit (Policy and Charging Rules Function, PCRF) receiving as after new business sets up the request of EPS carrying or amendment EPS carrying, equipment of the core network initiation corresponding EPS carrying set up/amendment before or corresponding EPS carry set up/amendment after send wireless network to access device and shunt request message.Shunting request message comprises business information, and the detailed description of business information sends the associated description in shunting request message see above-mentioned user terminal.The business information that this message comprises also can comprise many.This message also can reuse existing message, and such as request message is set up in EPS carrying, represents request WLAN shunt by increasing parameter.
After access device detects these wireless networks shunting request, judge whether the business in request is applicable to being diverted to WLAN according to wireless network shunting request, when the business in shunting request is applicable to being diverted to WLAN, perform step S102, otherwise, do not respond shunting and ask.
Step S102: if the business in shunting request is applicable to being diverted to WLAN (wireless local area network), select the WLAN (wireless local area network) of the professional ability had in carrying request.
The access device of wireless access network end after the wireless network shunting request receiving user terminal, the distributing strategy prewired according to self and/or from the distributing strategy that ANDSF entity obtains judge shunting ask corresponding business whether can be divided to WLAN.If of course, then select the network that is applicable to, namely can carry the WLAN of the business in shunting request.
In order to select the WLAN be applicable to, on the one hand, WLAN quality, load etc. that access device can scan by user terminal to send up, or 3GPP Network measurement information judge user terminal under the covering of which (a bit) WLAN, eat dishes without rice or wine quality and the load of which WLAN be more suitable for this service distributing to go over.
On the other hand, access device also by obtaining user terminal alternately under the covering of which (a bit) WLAN and the information such as quality and load of eating dishes without rice or wine of these WLAN with WLAN, can select suitable WLAN.If WLAN is connected to core net by 3GPP RAN, access device also will consider the load of 3GPP RAN, the load condition particularly between 3GPP RAN and core net backhaul, selects suitable WLAN.
Step S103: send shunting Indication message to user terminal, performs corresponding WLAN (wireless local area network) access operation to make user terminal according to shunting Indication message.
Access device selects suitable WLAN rear line terminal to send WLAN shunt Indication message, this shunting Indication message comprises business information and the shunting instruction of request shunting, and shunting instruction comprises successfully shunts service identification, refusal shunting service identification or hangs up the wherein a kind of of service identification.
If the shunting instruction comprised in shunting Indication message is successfully shunt service identification, then shunt the WLAN information also comprising carrying shunting in Indication message.WLAN information is specify basic service set identification (the Basic Service Set Identifier of WLAN, or service set (Service Set Identifier BSSID), or access point (Access Point SSID), AP) M AC (Media Access Control, MAC) address or channel frequency etc.
The business information of the request shunting in shunting Indication message can be assign to be diverted to the business information of WLAN, the five-tuple of the TCP/UDP IP header of such as corresponding business, TFT, application identities or message transaction mark etc.If comprise the information of multiple business in the wireless network shunting request that in step S101, access device receives, then shunting each business information in Indication message can be the sequence number of corresponding business information in shunting request message.
If access device is according to strategy refusal to the service distributing in shunting request, then the shunting instruction of the WLAN shunt Indication message of user terminal reception is refusal service distributing mark.This refusal service distributing mark also can by specific message name implicit expression instruction.
If access device is agreed to shunt the business in asking to WLAN according to strategy, but temporarily can not find suitable WLAN, then the shunting instruction in the WLAN shunt Indication message of user terminal reception is for hanging up service identification.This hang-up service identification also can by specific message name implicit expression instruction.
To in wireless network shunting request, each wishes the business being divided to WLAN, and described shunting instruction can be { success, refusal, one of hang up three enumerated values, also can identify with two bits, such as 00,01,10 identify respectively successfully, refuse and hang up.
Once access device sends the WLAN shunt Indication message comprising and hang up service identification to user terminal, access device can continue to attempt finding to have the WLAN that professional ability is hung up in carrying, till the message finding the WLAN having and carry and hang up professional ability or the wireless network receiving hang-up business shunting to cancel.Once find the WLAN having and carry described hang-up professional ability, just send WLAN shunt Indication message to user terminal.
Once user terminal receives the WLAN shunt Indication message comprising and hang up service identification, if user terminal does not still receive the order being diverted to WLAN when corresponding service ending, then user terminal sends the WLAN shunt cancellation message comprising business information to access device, continues to attempt this service distributing to WLAN to avoid access device.Another kind of way: access device sends the WLAN shunt Indication message comprising and hang up service identification to user terminal after, access device does not continue to attempt finding to have the WLAN that professional ability is hung up in carrying; Once user terminal receives the WLAN shunt Indication message comprising and hang up service identification, user terminal periodically sends WLAN shunt request message to access device before corresponding service ending, and access device receives after WLAN shunt request message by step S102 process.
The WLAN shunt Indication message that user terminal returns according to access device, performs corresponding WLAN access operation.After performing WLAN access operation, send to access device and comprise the message that WLAN accesses result, to notify whether access device WLAN accesses successfully.When wireless network shunting request is sent by equipment of the core network, the WLAN of correspondence is also accessed results messages and also sends to equipment of the core network, to notify whether equipment of the core network WLAN accesses successfully by access device.
Once successfully by a service distributing to WLAN, independent EPS carrying is established if 3GPP cellular network is this business, then access device may initiate (or user terminal initiation) deleting load-bearing process, deletes corresponding EPS carrying or its part.If will therefore initiate deleting load-bearing process, contain in the WLAN access results messages successfully shunting service identification and must comprise EPS bearing identification (Bearer ID).If the 3GPP network that the WLAN participating in shunting is connected to user terminal does not have data surface anchor point, then delete corresponding whole piece EPS and carry.If the 3GPP network that the WLAN participating in shunting is connected to user terminal has data surface anchor point, delete the part of below described data surface anchor point.Such as, if the data participating in shunting WLAN are linked into the Internet by the base station of wireless access network, then only delete the part of eating dishes without rice or wine of corresponding carrying, namely EPS is carried on the part between base station and user terminal.Issue at access device in the WLAN access results messages of equipment of the core network and comprise " WLAN offload " cause value.
It should be noted that, also have in a kind of implementation, the access device oneself that this WLAN shunt based on business also can be held by RAN is initiated, such as when RAN lateral load is overweight, RAN end will carry out WLAN shunt judgement, find out the business being suitable for WLAN shunt, the wireless network shunting request of holding the access device of self to send to carry these business information by RAN, initiates wireless network branching process.After access device detects the wireless network shunting request himself initiated, by selecting the user terminal be applicable to, applicable business and applicable WLAN, the shunting Indication message generating corresponding business sends to respective user terminal, to indicate respective user terminal by corresponding service distributing in corresponding WLAN.
By the elaboration of above-mentioned execution mode, be appreciated that the access device that the application passes through to send the WLAN shunt request of carrying business information and holds to RAN, held by RAN and control wireless network and be diverted on WLAN.Because RAN end more easily obtains the load condition of RAN and WLAN and the information such as channel quality of eating dishes without rice or wine, thus suitable WLAN can be selected according to the business information in these information and shunting request, user terminal is linked into and can carries on the WLAN of request shunting business, effectively promote the experience of user radio network.
Refer to Fig. 3, Fig. 3 is the flow chart of another execution mode of shunt method of the application's wireless network, the shunt method of present embodiment wireless network is described with the angle of above-mentioned user terminal, and the shunt method of the wireless network of present embodiment comprises:
Step S201: user terminal sends the wireless network shunting request of carrying business information to access device.
If user terminal wish by service distributing to WLAN on time, carry business information to access device send wireless network shunting ask.Wireless network shunting request sends in the form of a message, can comprise the business information of request shunting, the five-tuple, TFT, application identities etc. of such as TCP/UDP IP header in this request message.Five-tuple refers to by source IP address, source port, object IP address, destination interface, and a set of transport layer protocol number these five amount compositions.Such as: 192.168.1.1,0000, TCP, 21.14.88.76,80 just constitute a five-tuple.
User terminal can judge whether to need by certain service distributing to WLAN by self prewired distributing strategy or from the distributing strategy that ANDSF entity obtains, if needed, sends out wireless network shunting request message.If the business information of carrying in shunting request message is TFT, then this message need in EPS loading establishing process user terminal obtain network to TFT after just send out this message.The business information that this message comprises can comprise many.This message also can reuse existing message, such as RRC connection setup complete message, represents request WLAN shunt by increasing parameter.
Step S202: receive the shunting Indication message that access device returns.
Access device receive user terminal wireless network shunting request after, the distributing strategy prewired according to self or from the distributing strategy that ANDSF entity obtains judge shunting ask corresponding business whether can be divided to WLAN.Of course, then select the network be applicable to namely can carry the WLAN of business in shunting request if.After finding applicable network, access device sends shunting Indication message to user terminal.
User terminal receives the shunting Indication message that access device returns, and shunting Indication message comprises business information and the shunting instruction of request shunting, and shunting instruction comprises successfully shunts service identification, refusal shunting service identification or hangs up the wherein a kind of of service identification.
If the shunting instruction comprised in shunting Indication message is successfully shunt service identification, then shunt the WLAN information also comprising carrying shunting in Indication message.WLAN information is specify BSSID or SSID of WLAN or the MAC Address of AP or channel frequency etc.
