The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative in nature and is in no way intended to limit the invention, its application, or uses. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The relative arrangement of the components and steps, the numerical expressions and numerical values set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention unless specifically stated otherwise.
Meanwhile, it should be understood that the sizes of the respective portions shown in the drawings are not drawn in an actual proportional relationship for the convenience of description.
Techniques, methods, and apparatus known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail but are intended to be part of the specification where appropriate.
In all examples shown and discussed herein, any particular value should be construed as merely illustrative, and not limiting. Thus, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values.
It should be noted that: like reference numbers and letters refer to like items in the following figures, and thus, once an item is defined in one figure, further discussion thereof is not required in subsequent figures.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of a method for policy configuration according to a type of a user equipment according to the present invention. Wherein:
Optionally, the base station reports the device identifier of the ue and the base station identifier to the PCRF unit in the form of a Radio Access Technology (RAT) value.
Because the current RAT value is used for describing the wireless access technology, the equipment identification and the base station identification of the user terminal are reported to the network side in the form of the RAT value without modifying the current network, thereby greatly reducing the implementation cost.
For example, the device identifier of the user terminal may be an IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity), or other identifier that uniquely identifies the user terminal.
102, the PCRF unit issues a corresponding speed limit template for the ue according to the received ue identifier and the base station identifier, so as to perform rate control on the ue.
Based on the method for performing policy configuration according to the user terminal type provided by the above embodiment of the present invention, the access base station reports the device identifier and the base station identifier of the user terminal, so that the network side can accurately obtain the terminal type of the user terminal, and issues the corresponding speed limit template for the user terminal according to the terminal type of the user terminal and the support capability of the base station, thereby implementing accurate matching of the user terminal speed, and simultaneously, the existing network is not required to be modified in a large scale.
Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of another embodiment of the method for policy configuration according to the type of the ue in the present invention. Wherein:
Optionally, the PCRF unit determines whether the user terminal supports the 4G + service according to the received terminal identifier. This may be implemented, for example, by a terminal identity to support capability mapping table.
If the user terminal supports the designated service, executing step 203; if the ue does not support the specified service, step 205 is executed.
In step 204, the PCRF unit issues a first speed limit template corresponding to the specified service to a PGW (PDN Gateway), so that the PGW performs speed control on the user terminal by using the first speed limit template. After which no further steps of the present embodiment are performed.
In step 205, the PCRF unit issues a second speed limit template to the PGW, so that the PGW performs speed control on the user terminal by using the second speed limit template.
Optionally, the highest speed limit of the first speed limit template is greater than the highest speed limit of the second speed limit template.
For example, if the PCRF unit learns that the ue is a 4G + ue and the bs supports 4G + services through the RAT value uploaded by the bs, it issues a corresponding first speed limit template (e.g., 300M speed limit template) to the PGW; if the user terminal is known to be a non-4G + terminal or the base station does not support 4G + services, a corresponding second speed limiting template is issued to the PGW, and the highest speed limiting value of the second speed limiting template is smaller than that of the first speed limiting template, so that the speed of the 4G + terminal is accurately matched.
Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of a system for policy configuration according to a type of a user terminal according to the present invention. As shown in fig. 3, the system may include a base station 301 and a PCRF unit 302, where:
the base station 301 is configured to report the device identifier and the base station identifier of the user terminal to the PCRF unit 302 when the user terminal accesses.
Optionally, the base station 301 reports the device identifier of the ue and the base station identifier to the PCRF unit in the form of the RAT value. Because the existing mode is adopted for reporting, the large-scale reconstruction of the existing network is not needed.
The PCRF unit 302 is configured to issue a corresponding speed limit template for the ue according to the received device identifier and the base station identifier of the ue, so as to perform rate control on the ue.
Based on the system for performing policy configuration according to the user terminal type provided by the above embodiment of the present invention, the access base station reports the terminal identifier and the base station identifier of the user terminal, so that the network side can accurately obtain the terminal type of the user terminal, and issues the corresponding speed limit template for the user terminal according to the terminal type of the user terminal and the support capability of the base station, thereby implementing accurate matching of the user terminal speed, and simultaneously, the existing network is not required to be modified in a large scale.
Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of another embodiment of the system for policy configuration according to the type of the ue in the present invention. Compared with the embodiment shown in fig. 3, in the embodiment shown in fig. 4, in addition to the base station 401 and the PCRF unit 402, a PGW 403 is further included. Wherein:
the PCRF unit 402 specifically determines whether the ue supports the specified service according to the received device identifier of the ue, further determines whether the bs supports the specified service according to the base station identifier if the ue supports the specified service, and issues a first speed limit template corresponding to the specified service to the PGW 403 if the bs supports the specified service.
The PGW 403 is configured to perform speed control on the user terminal using the first speed limit template.
Optionally, the PCRF unit 402 is further configured to issue a second speed limit template to the PGW 403 when the user terminal does not support the specified service or the base station does not support the specified service, so that the PGW 403 performs speed control on the user terminal by using the second speed limit template.
Optionally, the highest speed limit of the first speed limit template is greater than the highest speed limit of the second speed limit template.
The invention is described below by way of a specific example, as shown in fig. 5.
The first terminal 51 is a 4G + terminal, after accessing the first base station 52, the first base station 52 reports a terminal identifier of the first terminal 51 and a base station identifier of the first base station 52 itself to the PCRF unit 55 through an SGW (Serving Gateway) 53 and a PGW 54 in the form of RAT values, and the PCRF unit 55 issues a first speed limit template corresponding to a 4G + service to the PGW 54 after knowing that the first terminal 51 is the 4G + terminal and that the base station supports the 4G + service according to the terminal identifier and the base station identifier, so that the PGW 54 performs rate control on the first terminal 51 by using the first speed limit template.
The second terminal 56 is a non-4G + terminal, after accessing the second base station 57, the second base station 57 reports the terminal identifier of the second terminal 56 and the base station identifier of the second base station 57 to the PCRF unit 55 through the SGW 53 and the PGW 54 in the form of an RAT value, and the PCRF unit 55 issues a second speed limit template corresponding to the non-4G + terminal to the PGW 54 when knowing that the second terminal 56 is the non-4G + terminal according to the terminal identifier and the base station identifier, so that the PGW 54 performs rate control on the second terminal 56 by using the second speed limit template.
By implementing the invention, the network side can have the capability of accurately distinguishing the 4G + user from the common user. By deploying the invention in the 4G existing network, the problem that an EPC core network cannot accurately acquire the 4G + terminal, so that an accurate rate template cannot be issued for the user terminal according to the 4G + supporting capability of the terminal and the base station can be effectively solved.
It will be understood by those skilled in the art that all or part of the steps for implementing the above embodiments may be implemented by hardware, or may be implemented by a program instructing relevant hardware, where the program may be stored in a computer-readable storage medium, and the above-mentioned storage medium may be a read-only memory, a magnetic disk or an optical disk, etc.
