Detailed Description
The embodiment of the application provides an information transmission method and device, a computer storage medium and a communication system, which are used for enabling a position application platform to acquire position information of one or more user equipment served by a base station at one time through acquisition equipment, and avoiding a related process of independently initiating a position report for each user, so that signaling overhead of a communication network is saved, a core network does not need to be modified, cost is saved, and the method is easy to implement.
The mobile communication network operator can combine the user identity information, Service information and the like generated in the mobile network authorized by the user with the user location information in real time through the base station positioning, and provide personalized and interactive location application Service for the mobile user and the partner (such as CP (Content Provider)/SP (Service Provider)).
It should be noted that, the user described in this embodiment may refer to a user equipment (or referred to as a terminal).
And the terminal acquires and processes the relevant parameters of the position measurement. The mobile communication network comprises an access network part and a core network part, is mainly responsible for carrying location service signaling or messages and provides various network parameters required by a location capability engine. In a 4G network, an access network includes an evolved Node B (e-Node B), and a core network includes network elements such as a Mobility Management Entity (MME), a System architecture evolution Gateway (System architecture evolution Gateway, SAE-GW), a Home Subscriber Server (HSS), and a Gateway Mobile Location Center (GMLC). The location application platform supports location calculation in various ways such as Assisted-Global Positioning System (a-GPS) location, base station location, IP address location, and the like, and is responsible for performing service processing according to location information of a user to satisfy an application service function related to the location of the user. The position application platform and the core network are transmitted through the Internet.
In addition, location applications are increasingly demanded for indoor scenarios, which are different from outdoor scenarios. In the prior art, standard interfaces are adopted in a mobile communication network and between the mobile communication network and a position application platform, and the transmission content of user position information in the standard interfaces cannot meet the requirements. In the prior art, the contents of the position information transmission mainly include the following two types:
the first is that the user's location information is cell level, i.e. it conveys the cell identity to which the user belongs;
second, the user's location information is at the geographic location level, i.e., the user longitude and latitude information is transmitted.
For the first, the positioning accuracy is low, and the accuracy requirements of many location services cannot be met. With the deployment of the integrated pico-cell and the distributed pico-cell and the popularization and application of the fingerprint matching and positioning calculation method, more accurate indoor user position information can be actually acquired. The integrated pico-base station and the distributed pico-base station are small base stations, for example, the integrated pico-base station RRU is integrated with a BBU, for example, a Nanocell; the distributed pico-base station is an optical fiber remote base station with a BBU + RRU structure.
In the second type, on one hand, information of longitude and latitude cannot be obtained due to weak signals of a Global Positioning Satellite (GPS), and on the other hand, indoor position information is generally more intuitive as information such as a floor and a relative reference point position.
If the standard interface is modified, the software upgrading of the core network equipment is involved, the cost is high, and the influence range is large. If a private interface is customized between the base station and the location application, the private interface and the location application are transmitted through the Internet, and the network operation safety requirement cannot be met due to the fact that the base station is attacked, the location information of the user belongs to private data and the like.
Based on the above analysis, a network architecture of the location service provided in the embodiment of the present application is shown in fig. 1.
In fig. 1, an acquisition device is deployed within a mobile communication network. The collecting device monitors interface data (such as S1-MME and S1-U interface data) between the base station and the core network and interface data (such as S5/8 and S6a interface data) inside the core network in a mirroring mode, and analyzes the monitored data. The location application platform can be deployed in a charging domain of the mobile communication network for the sake of network operation safety. Optionally, the collection device accesses an operator Mobile Digital Communication Network (MDCN) Network through a router or a switch, and interfaces with the location application platform.
The mirror mode is realized by multiplexing of an optical splitter, and refers to completely copying and distributing optical path signals to an application system (such as a position application platform) through a link optical splitter.
The acquisition device may parse the acquired content according to a 3GPP standard protocol format, and extract various key information therefrom, for example: user identification, Tracking Area Code (TAC), cell identification, source IP address, destination IP address, source port, destination port, protocol number, etc.; recording and distributing according to the data content and format requirements required by the application system; further, in the embodiment of the application, a 3GPP standard protocol interface is extended, and the extension content adopts a private interface format; the acquisition device needs to be able to identify the extension content.
That is to say, in the embodiment of the present application, a transmission mode and a data format of the user location related information agreed between the base station and the acquisition device, and a specific implementation flow, for example, as shown in fig. 2, includes:
the method comprises the following steps: the base station acquires measurement information related to the user position, wherein the measurement information can be the user position related information measured by the base station, or the user position related measurement information measured by the terminal and reported to the base station; the base station can calculate the position information of the user according to the position information, and the position information can be the position information of an outdoor user or the accurate position information of an indoor user;
step two: the base station transmits the location related information of the user to the MME through a control interface (S1-MME interface) between the base station and the MME; the location information of the user here may include location information of all users under the base station, and is not limited to the location information of a certain specific user; in the step, the base station expands the 3GPP standard interface message, and the expansion content is nonstandard, namely, the MME can not analyze the content in the message;
step three: therefore, the MME analyzes, according to the standard S1-MME interface definition, a message containing the location related information of the user, which is sent to the MME by the base station, and cannot identify the user location related information reported by the base station, thereby discarding or ignoring the message;
step four: the collecting equipment monitors an S1-MME interface, identifies user position related information transmitted to a core network by a base station according to an information transmission format agreed with the base station in advance, constructs a record related to the user position and provides the record to a position application platform;
step five: and after the position application platform (such as a position-based big data analysis platform) processes the record according to the agreed format, the obtained user position related information is used for providing services such as user behavior analysis, business management condition analysis and the like.
The acquisition device may have a predetermined information transmission format with the base station, for example, the predetermined format shown in table 1 below.
Figure BDA0001510044500000081
TABLE 1
In table 1, the user location related information may be measurement information related to the user location, for example, signal strength, signal arrival angle, timing advance, and the like; in addition, the user position related information can also be user accurate position information obtained by the base station through positioning calculation; the information may be indoor location information, or outdoor menstruation, latitude information, and the like, and the embodiment of the present application is not particularly limited. If the measurement information is related to the user location, the location application platform may obtain the measurement information related to the user location, and then obtain the accurate location information of the user through positioning calculation, where the specific calculation method may be implemented by using the prior art, and the positioning calculation method may use, for example, a Time of Arrival (TOA), a Time Difference of Arrival (OTDOA) method, a fingerprint matching algorithm, and the like, which are all the prior art and are not described in detail.
Since the message carrying the user location related information sent by the base station to the MME is a non-standard message (for example, as shown in the description of the message type in table 1), the MME cannot identify the message after receiving the message, and discards the message. And after receiving the message, the acquisition equipment can acquire the position related information of the users contained in each cell in the current mobile network. Here, it should be noted that if the message is a message obtained by modifying an existing S1 application Protocol (S1-application Protocol, S1-AP) message, the attribute of the modified message is an "ignore" attribute, which is an attribute, because the MME ignores the message with the "ignore" attribute and does not perform any special processing. Otherwise, if the message attribute is reject attribute, the MME will reject the process for the message with reject attribute, trigger the failure flow, and generate an alarm to affect the normal signaling process.
The execution of the second step may be controlled by setting a control parameter, and the control parameter may include, for example, whether the base station transmits the user location related information to the MME, and a transmission period, and the parameters are configured by Operation & Management (O & M). When the control switch for the base station to transmit the user location related information to the MME is turned on, the base station transmits the user location related information to the MME through a non-standard message of the S1-MME interface, specifically, may transmit according to a transmission cycle.
In addition, in the second step, the transmission method of the user location related information is not specifically limited, and taking the LTE network as an example, the user location related information may be transmitted by adding a new S1-AP message, or may be transmitted by modifying an existing S1-AP message.
The message shown in table 1 is an implementation method of adding a S1-AP message. The S1-AP message is, for example, a location INFORMATION TRANSFER (POSITION INFORMATION TRANSFER) message, and the transmission direction is e-NB to MME. The message is transmitted to MME through S1-MME interface, and the message carries the user-defined user position related information.
In summary, referring to fig. 3, at the base station side, an information transmission method provided in the embodiment of the present application includes:
s101, determining position related information of User Equipment (UE);
wherein, the location related information of the UE is the user location related information described in the above embodiment.
S102, according to a pre-agreed information transmission format between a base station and acquisition equipment, sending a message containing the UE position related information to a core network, so that the core network discards or ignores the message, and the acquisition equipment analyzes the message according to the information transmission format and acquires the UE position related information, and provides the UE position related information to a position application platform.
Wherein the message containing the location related information of the UE, for example, the above-mentioned S1-AP message. The information transmission format agreed in advance between the base station and the acquisition device, for example, the format shown in table 1 above. Because the message is a non-standard message and adopts a pre-agreed information transmission format between the base station and the acquisition equipment, the core network discards or ignores the message, and the acquisition equipment analyzes the message according to the information transmission format and acquires the position related information of the UE, and provides the position related information of the UE to the position application platform, so that the position application platform can acquire the position information of one or more user equipments served by the base station at one time through the acquisition equipment, the related flow of independently initiating a position report for each user is avoided, the signaling overhead of the communication network is saved, the core network does not need to be modified, the cost is saved, and the realization is easy.
