Fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a method for ensuring quality of service according to an exemplary embodiment, which is applied to a multi-network convergence scenario, and is used in a base station, referring to fig. 2, and includes the following steps:
in step 201, a primary base station accesses a first core network.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a multi-network convergence scenario refers to a scenario in which an EPC (Evolved Packet Core) and an NG Core network are converged. The EPC is a core network of a 4G (the 4th generation mobile communication technology) mobile communication network. The network belongs to the core network category, and is characterized in that only a packet domain is available, a circuit domain is not available, the network is based on an all-IP structure, the control and bearing are separated, the network structure is flat, and the traditional capabilities of a mobile network such as user subscription data storage, mobility management and data exchange are achieved. By adopting an LTE (Long term evolution ) technology, the EPC can provide broadband access and rich and colorful applications anytime and anywhere to better meet user requirements. And the NG core network is a next generation core network facing 5G.
In the multi-network convergence scenario provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, a base station is divided into a master base station and a slave base station. The relationship between the main base station and the secondary base station is similar to the relationship between a Mater (master) and a Slave, the secondary base station cannot directly enter a core network or directly communicate data with the terminal, and the secondary base station needs to be capable of communicating data with the terminal through the main base station. In addition, it is known that a base station can normally provide communication services to terminals within its coverage area only when the base station accesses a core network. Therefore, the main base station needs to access the first core network. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a core network accessed by a master base station is referred to as a first core network.
In step 202, the primary base station converts a first QoS parameter adopted by the first core network into a second QoS parameter adopted by a second core network, where the second core network is a core network to which the secondary base station belongs when the first core network is the core network to which the primary base station belongs, or the second core network is the core network to which the primary base station belongs when the first core network is the core network to which the secondary base station belongs.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the types of the first core network and the second core network are different, and the relationship between the two can be summarized as follows:
and when the first core network is the core network to which the secondary base station belongs, the second core network is the core network to which the main base station belongs. For example, the core network to which one base station belongs may be interpreted as: referring to fig. 3A, for an lte base station, its home core network is an Evolved Packet Core (EPC); referring to fig. 3B, for the NR base station, the core network to which the NR base station belongs is an NG core network. The eLTE base station is a base station facing eLTE technology, and the NR base station is a base station facing NR technology in 5G.
Quality of service (QoS) refers to a network that can provide better service capability for specified network communication by using various basic technologies, and is a technology for solving problems such as network delay and congestion, which is a security mechanism of the network. Normally, if the network is only used for a specific non-time-limited application system, no QoS is required, such as Web applications, or e-mail settings, etc. But is necessary for multimedia applications. QoS ensures that important traffic is not delayed or data is not dropped when the network is overloaded or congested. In brief, QoS means that a certain service quality is required for a certain service, and the QoS control mechanism can guarantee the service quality of different services. The QoS parameters are specifically used to set forth the service requirements needed for different classes of traffic.
In general, some active constraints and settings related to QoS (for example, setting of a user subscription rate, service priority of a user bearer, etc.) are performed on the core network side; the wireless side executes the strategy of the core network more, and configures the resources of the wireless side according to the QoS parameters sent by the core network. For example, in practical implementation, the primary base station may generate a hybrid SPI (scheduling Priority Index) table on the wireless side in combination with the QoS parameter and other core network parameters, so as to guide resource allocation on the wireless side.
Of course, the QoS parameters used by different types of core networks are usually different, and for a base station not belonging to the core network, the base station cannot identify the QoS parameters used by the core network. In the multi-network convergence scenario, in order to ensure the service quality of the service, the QoS parameter conversion is required.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the main base station converts the first QoS parameter used by the first core network into the second QoS parameter used by the second core network, which generally includes the following situations:
in the first case, when the primary base station is an eLTE base station, the secondary base station is an NR base station, and the first core network is an NG core network to which the NR base station belongs,
the second core network is an evolution grouping core network to which the eLTE base station belongs, and the eLTE base station converts the first QoS parameter of the stream level into a second QoS parameter of the bearing level.
For the first case, because the lte base station as the main base station accesses the NG core network, that is, the base station facing the lte technology accesses the core network facing 5G. In this situation, in order to ensure the quality of service of different services on an LTE terminal accessing to the LTE-NR converged network, the LTE base station serving as the main base station also needs to convert flow-level qos (flow-based qos) parameters adopted by the NG core network into bearer-level qos (bearer-based qos) parameters adopted by the evolved packet core network.
Where flow represents a connection of communicating peers. In EPC, the basic unit of QoS control is bearer. The service data flows mapped to the same bearer will obtain the same QoS guarantee (such as scheduling policy, radio bearer policy, etc.). The bearer QoS parameters may include QCI (QoS Class Identifier), ARP (Allocation/retention Priority), GBR (Guaranteed Bit Rate), MBR (Maximum Bit Rate), Maximum aggregation Bit Rate per APN (Access Point Name), Maximum aggregation Bit Rate per terminal, and the like.
The QCI parameter is used to specify a packet forwarding mode for controlling a bearer level defined in the access node, such as a scheduling weight, an access threshold, a queue management threshold, a link layer protocol configuration, and the like. The use of the QCI parameter can effectively reduce the amount of data when the QoS parameter is transmitted.
The ARP parameter is applicable to both GBR and Non-GBR bearers, and is mainly used to determine whether a request for bearer establishment or bearer modification can be accepted or rejected due to system resource limitation. In addition, the ARP parameter may also be used to decide which bearer can be released when the system is resource constrained. The ARP parameter of one bearer only works before the bearer establishment is successful.
GBR refers to the bit rate that one GBR bearer can guarantee to provide. MBR refers to the maximum bit rate that a GBR bearer can provide, which can be used to limit the data transmission rate of the traffic. The MBR parameter is typically greater than or equal to the GBR parameter value.
The maximum aggregation bit rate parameter of each APN is stored in HSS (Home Subscriber Server), each APN can have different settings, and is mainly used for limiting the maximum data service rate which can be provided by all Non-GBR bearers and all PDN connections under one APN, and when the rate exceeds the rate specified by the parameter, the system can limit through a certain rate control function.
A maximum aggregate bit rate per terminal parameter is stored in the HSS to limit the maximum data traffic rate that can be provided by all Non-GBR bearers per terminal, and rates that exceed this parameter can also be limited by the rate control function.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the conversion from the flow-level QoS parameter to the bearer-level QoS parameter or from the bearer-level QoS parameter to the flow-level QoS parameter is performed, a preset mapping algorithm of the QoS parameters may be used to convert various requirements for different services in the QoS parameters used by one core network into QoS parameters that can be understood, identified, or used by another core network. For example, the priority of one service is converted into equal priority, or higher priority, or lower priority based on the mapping algorithm, so as to be suitable for another core network.
In the second case, when the primary base station is an eLTE base station, the secondary base station is an NR base station, and the first core network is an evolved packet core network to which the eLTE base station belongs,
the second core network is an NG core network to which the NR base station belongs, and the eLTE base station converts the first QoS parameter of the bearing level into a second QoS parameter of the stream level.
For the second situation, because the lte base station as the main base station accesses the evolved packet core network, that is, the base station facing the lte technology, accesses the core network to which the lte base station belongs. In this situation, in order to ensure the service quality of different services on the NR terminal accessing the lte-NR converged network, the lte base station serving as the main base station also needs to convert the stream-level QoS parameter adopted by the NG core network into a bearer-level QoS parameter adopted by the evolved packet core network.
In the third situation, when the main base station is an NR base station, the secondary base station is an lte base station, and the first core network is an NG core network to which the NR base station belongs,
the second core network is an evolution grouping core network to which the eLTE base station belongs, and the NR base station converts the first QoS parameter of the flow level into a second QoS parameter of the bearing level.
For the third situation, since the NR base station as the main base station is accessed to the NG core network, that is, the base station facing the NR technology in 5G is accessed to the core network to which it belongs. In this situation, in order to ensure the quality of service of different services on the LTE terminal accessing the LTE-NR converged network, the NR base station serving as the main base station also needs to convert the stream-level QoS parameter adopted by the NG core network into a bearer-level QoS parameter adopted by the evolved packet core network.
In summary, the above three cases of QoS parameter transformation can be summarized as table 1 below.
TABLE 1
Figure BDA0001256910800000101
In step 203, the primary base station performs resource allocation according to the second QoS parameter to ensure the service quality of each service provided for the terminal, where the terminal is a terminal belonging to the second core network.
When the main base station is accessed to the evolved packet core network, the terminal is an LTE terminal, and when the main base station is accessed to the NG core network, the terminal is an NR terminal.
After the conversion of the QoS parameter is carried out, the main base station can configure the wireless side resource according to the second QoS parameter. For example, the main base station generates a mixed SPI table on the wireless side based on the second QoS parameter and other core network parameters, and guides resource allocation on the wireless side according to the SPI table, thereby ensuring quality of service of different services provided to the terminal belonging to the second core network.
In the method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, in a scenario where a first core network and a second core network are converged, after a master base station is accessed to the first core network, a first QoS parameter adopted by the first core network is converted into a second QoS parameter adopted by the second core network, and resource configuration is performed based on the second QoS parameter after the conversion, so as to ensure the service quality of each service provided for a terminal belonging to the second core network.

In another embodiment, the converting module 402 is configured to, when the main base station is an NR base station, the secondary base station is an lte base station, and the first core network is an NG core network to which the NR base station belongs, convert the first QoS parameter of the flow level into the second QoS parameter of the bearer level, where the second core network is an evolved packet core network to which the lte base station belongs.
According to the device provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, in a scenario where a first core network and a second core network are converged, after a main base station is accessed to the first core network, a first QoS parameter adopted by the first core network is converted into a second QoS parameter adopted by the second core network, and resource configuration is performed based on the second QoS parameter after the conversion, so as to ensure the service quality of each service provided for a terminal belonging to the second core network.
