Detailed Description
To make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are some, but not all embodiments of the present invention. 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.
When the data service of a user is switched among different communication networks, a data system, a protocol system and the like are changed, how to realize the non-inductive switching of the data service of the user among heterogeneous networks in the original spatial heterogeneous integrated network is achieved, and an effective solution is not available at present. Based on this, the method and the device for switching the data service in the spatial heterogeneous integrated network provided by the embodiment of the invention can solve the technical problem that the user data service cannot be switched among heterogeneous networks in the original spatial heterogeneous integrated network in an imperceptible manner.
Example one
The data service switching method in the spatial heterogeneous integrated network provided by the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, includes:
step S102, a link switching request of a first user is received, where the first user is a user moving from a coverage area of a first satellite network to a coverage area of a second satellite network.
Specifically, the users in the embodiments of the present invention all refer to user terminal devices.
And step S104, based on the link switching request, performing data tunnel change operation on the initial link to add an updated link between the first user and a second user, wherein the second user is a user performing data service with the first user, and the initial link is a link when the first user realizes the data service based on the first satellite network and the second user.
And step S106, switching the data service from the initial link to the updated link at a target time, wherein the target time is the time when the first user is in the overlapping coverage area of the first satellite network and the second satellite network.
In the embodiment of the invention, after receiving a link switching request of a first user, based on the link switching request, link change operation is carried out on an initial link so as to add an updated link between the first user and a second user, and the first user and the second user realize data service through a second satellite network through the updated link; and then switching the data service from the initial link to an updated link at a target moment, wherein the target moment is the moment when the first user is in the overlapping coverage area of the first satellite network and the second satellite network, and the data service is switched at the target moment so that the data service is not interrupted, thereby effectively relieving the technical problem that the user data service cannot be switched among heterogeneous networks in the original spatial heterogeneous integrated network in an imperceptible manner.
It should be noted that, the original data service system in each satellite network is not changed, and the change situation of the data in the data service in the transmission process between the network systems is as follows: after a data service initiated by a source user reaches a source boundary gateway (namely, a boundary gateway of a source satellite network, wherein the source satellite network refers to a satellite network accessed by the source user), data in the data service is uniformly converted into IP data at the source boundary gateway, and after the IP data reaches a target boundary gateway (namely, a boundary gateway of a target user satellite network) through the Internet, the IP data is converted into an original data service system of the target satellite network (namely, a satellite network accessed by the target user) at the target boundary gateway. The specific flow of the data service between the network systems is as follows:
the source user sends data and a target user ID to a source boundary gateway by using an original data service system in a source satellite network;
the source boundary gateway queries the IP of the target user from the comprehensive network management module by using the ID of the target user;
the source border gateway packs the data into an IP data packet and sends the IP data packet to a target border gateway through the Internet;
after receiving the IP data packet, the target border gateway inquires a target user ID according to a target user IP stored in the target border gateway;
the target boundary gateway converts the IP data packet into an original data format in the target satellite network, and transmits the data to a target user by using an original data service system of the target satellite network. The data link between networks is shown in fig. 2.
In addition, as can be seen from the above description, the first user and the second user are users performing data services. The first user may be a source user or a destination user, and the second user may also be a source user or a destination user. Specifically, when the first user is a source user, the second user is a destination user; for another example, when the first user is a destination user, the second user is a source user. That is, when a first user sends a data service request to a second user, the first user is a source user, and the second user is a destination user; when the second user sends a data service request to the first user, the first user is a destination user, and the second user is a source user. Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments.
As can be seen from the above description, in the embodiment of the present invention, a link switching request of a first user is first received, and then, a data tunnel change operation is performed on an initial link based on the request.
In another optional implementation manner of the embodiment of the present invention, step S102, receiving a link switching request of a first user includes:
firstly, receiving a network access request sent by a first user, and establishing a first sublink according to the network access request, wherein the first sublink is a communication link used for transmitting data between the first user and a first satellite network;
then, a link switching request sent by the first user is received based on the first sublink.
In the embodiment of the invention, a first sub-link is established between a first user and a first satellite network to complete the network access of the first user in the first satellite network. The link switch request is then made by the first user, i.e. by the user with the changed communication network.
In another optional implementation manner of the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, the establishing a first sublink according to an access request includes:
step S301, a first sublink is established between a first user and a first border gateway through an in-network data service module, wherein the in-network data service module is an in-network data service processing module of a first satellite network, and the first border gateway is a gateway of the first satellite network;
step S302, IP is distributed to a first user through a first border gateway;
step S303, associate the ID and the IP of the first user to obtain an association relationship, and store the association relationship.
In another optional implementation manner of the embodiment of the present invention, storing the association relationship includes:
storing the association relationship in the first border gateway;
and sending the association relation to the comprehensive network management module through the first border gateway, and storing the association relation in the comprehensive network management module, wherein the comprehensive network management module is a system for comprehensively managing the communication network in the data service.
Specifically, the function of the intra-network data service module of the satellite network is to process data services among users in the corresponding satellite network, and the data services in each satellite network are still performed according to the original system in the satellite network.
In addition, each user has a unique ID, after the user accesses the satellite network, the boundary gateway of the satellite network distributes IP for the user, and the correlation between the IDs and the IPs of all the users in the corresponding satellite network is stored in the boundary gateway.
Each user has a unique IP within each satellite network. The comprehensive network management module is a system for comprehensively managing the communication network in the data service, stores all ID/IP corresponding tables in the satellite network, and simultaneously monitors the network access/network exit of the user.
When a user accesses to/quits the network in the target satellite network, firstly, the border gateway of the target satellite network updates the incidence relation list between the ID and the IP (the updating operation comprises the addition of the incidence relation or the deletion of the incidence relation), then the border gateway sends the updated incidence relation list to the comprehensive network management module server, and the comprehensive network management module server updates the general list. For example, the contents stored in the general table of the integrated network management module server are as follows:
Figure BDA0001510575700000111
the boundary gateway of each satellite network can obtain the association relation between the ID and IP of the accessed user of all satellite networks by inquiring the comprehensive network management module server.
The embodiment of the present invention provides a network access principle of a first user, and it should be noted that the network access principle of a second user is also as described above.
In another optional implementation manner of the embodiment of the present invention, performing a data tunnel change operation on an initial link based on a link switching request to add an update link between a first user and a second user includes:
after receiving the link switching request, acquiring a communication network of a second user;
judging whether the communication network of the second user is the first satellite network or the second satellite network to obtain a judgment result;
and according to the judgment result, carrying out data tunnel change operation on the initial link so as to add an update link between the first user and the second user.
The judgment result is divided into three conditions:
(1) the communication network of the second user is the first communication network, i.e. the first user moves from being in the same communication network as the second user to being in a different communication network from the second user;
(2) the communication network of the second user is a second communication network, i.e. the first user moves from being in a different communication network to being in the same communication network as the second user;
(3) the communication network of the second user is neither the first communication network nor the second communication network, i.e. the first user moves from one communication network different from the second user to another communication network different from the second user.
Data tunnels are needed for data transmission between different network systems, and are first explained as follows:
the establishment of the data tunnel utilizes a tunneling technique, which is a technique of transferring data between networks by using an infrastructure of the internet. The data transmitted by using the data tunnel can be data frames or packets of different protocols, and the data frames or packets of other protocols are re-encapsulated by the tunneling protocol and then sent through the tunnel, so that the data tunnel can realize data transmission among heterogeneous network systems.
