Description

Method and system for independently deployed 5G system to bear MBMS
Technical Field
The present invention belongs to the technical field of mobile communication, and particularly relates to a method and a system for an independently deployed 5G system to carry Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS).
Background
MBMS is a typical service supported by the LTE system in 3GPP protocol, and the service can be transmitted to a specific User Equipment (UE) through a unicast Bearer, and can also be broadcast in a cell through an MBMS Bearer (MBMS Bearer). Fig. 1 is an architecture diagram of MBMS in LTE system in 3GPP protocol. The PLMN is a home PLMN (H-PLMN) when the UE is in a non-roaming scenario; when the UE is in a roaming scenario, the PLMN is a visited PLMN (V-PLMN). The E-UTRAN consists of a multi-cell Multicast Coordination Entity (MCE) and an evolved base station (eNB).
Taking fig. 1 as an example, the procedure of broadcasting MBMS by MBMS bearer is as follows:
a Group communication system application server (GCS AS) in an application domain sends an MBMS Bearer activation Request (active MBMS Bearer Request) to a BM-SC through an MB2-C interface, and the message carries a session attribute of the MBMS. The session attributes include: TMGI, QOS information, MBMS broadcast area and start time of MBMS, wherein the MBMS broadcast area is defined by an MBMS area ID list and/or a cell ID list. The message triggers BM-SC to initiate a session start request process, in which BM-SC triggers a corresponding network element to allocate resources for MBMS bearer.
Specifically, in the Session Start Request process, the BM-SC sends a Session Start Request (Session Start Request) to the MBMS-GW, where the message carries the Session attribute of the MBMS. MBMS-GW establishes MBMS bearing context for MBMS and distributes transmission network IP multicast address and C-TEID for the service. MBMS-GW sends session start request to corresponding MME, and the message carries session attribute. Newly adding: the TNL information. The information includes: the transport network IP multicast address, the C-TEID and the IP address of the multicast source. Before sending this message, the MBMS-GW feeds back a Session Start Response) to the BM-SC.
After receiving the Response, the BM-SC feeds back an Activate MBMS Bearer Response (Activate MBMS Bearer Response) to the GCS AS. The message carries the information of the IP address, the port number and the like of the BM-SC. The BM-SC is then ready to receive MBME traffic data from the GCS AS over the MB2-U interface.
After receiving the response of activating the MBMS bearer, the GCS AS prepares to send the MBMS data to the BM-SC through the MB2-U interface.
After receiving the MBMS conversation starting request, the MME establishes an MBMS bearing context for the MBMS according to the conversation attribute in the message, determines each MCE corresponding to the MBMS broadcast area in the conversation attribute, and sends the conversation starting request to each MCE. The message carries the session attributes.
The MCE establishes MBMS bearing context for the MBMS according to the session attribute of the MBMS in the message and determines the MBMS sending mode of each service area or cell corresponding to the MBMS broadcast area.
When the MCE determines that the service is broadcasted in an MBMS area or an area formed by a plurality of cells in an MBSFN mode, the MCE allocates radio resources to the MBMS.
The MCE sends a session start request to the corresponding eNB. The message carries the MBMS session attributes. The session attributes include: TMGI and TNL information. When the MCE determines to transmit the MBMS in the corresponding cell in an SC-PTM mode, the message also carries SC-PTM information, and the information comprises: QOS information of MBMS and a cell ID list, wherein the cell ID list is a set of cells which transmit MBMS in an SC-PTM mode in the cells belonging to the corresponding eNB.
After receiving the session start request, the eNB joins the corresponding IP multicast distribution through the M1 interface according to the TNL information in the session attributes, and prepares to receive the data of the MBMS from the MBMS-GW.
And when the message contains SC-PTM information, the eNB allocates wireless resources to the MBMS according to the QOS information of the MBMS in each cell corresponding to the cell ID list. In general, radio resources allocated to an MBMS by an eNB in different cells are not the same.
When the MCE determines that the service is broadcasted in the MBSFN manner in one MBMS area or an area formed by several cells, the MCE also sends MBMS Scheduling information (MBMS Scheduling information) to the corresponding eNB. The message includes MBSFN area configuration information. The eNB can determine the configuration information of the control plane resources and the user plane resources required by the MBMS transmission in the MBSFN mode according to the MBSFN area configuration information. And the eNB broadcasts the MBSFN area control information and the MBMS data in a corresponding cell through corresponding control plane resources and user plane resources.
After the MCE receives the session start request sent by the MME, the MCE feeds back a session start response to the MME before or during the processing performed by the MCE and the eNB.
And after receiving the response message fed back by the MCE, the MME feeds back a session start response to the MBMS-GW. The MBMS-GW starts IP multicast distribution of MBMS data after receiving the response.
After the above processing procedure, when the time of MBMS transmission is up, GCS AS sends MBMS data to BM-SC, BM-SC forwards the data to MBMS-GW, MBMS-GW sends the data to corresponding eNB in IP multicast distribution mode. In the MBSFN mode, the eNB broadcasts the data of the MBMS in a corresponding cell through the radio resources uniformly distributed by the MCE; in the SC-PTM mode, the eNB broadcasts the data of the MBMS in the corresponding cell through the radio resource allocated by the eNB.
With the widespread use of the LTE system, the era of wireless internet has been opened. Wireless internet has developed more diverse demands for wireless networks, including not only higher system throughput, but also lower transmission delay, higher reliability, and a greater number of connected users. To meet these demands, 5G systems have come into play. The evolution of the LTE system to the 5G system in the 3GPP protocol is divided into two phases: non-independently deployed 5G systems and independently deployed 5G systems. According to the evolution process of the core network, the non-independently deployed 5G system is divided into: 5G systems with enhanced EPC and 5G systems with 5 GC. Fig. 2 is a 5G system architecture diagram of an independent deployment scenario. In the scene, the gNB and the NG-eNB are respectively connected with the 5GC through NG interfaces, the gNB is interconnected through an Xn interface, the gNB is connected with the NG-eNB through an Xn interface, and the NG-eNB is interconnected through an Xn interface. In the above figure, when the UE has the NE-DC function, the UE can be provided with services through the gnbs and the ng-enbs at the same time, and when the UE has the NR-DC function, the UE can be provided with services through the two gnbs at the same time.
However, in the above independently deployed 5G system, how to provide MBMS by MBMS bearer through 5GC and gNB, there is no relevant method and system in the industry at present.

The server in fig. 3 may be implemented AS a GCS AS or other type of server. Preferably, other types of servers may be implemented as a vehicle networking (V2X) server.
In fig. 3, the PLMN is H-PLMN when the UE is in a non-roaming scenario; when the UE is in a roaming scenario, the PLMN is a V-PLMN. The server may be: GCS AS, V2X servers, and other types of servers. In order to be compatible with the 5GC architecture as much as possible and simplify the MBMS flow under the 5GC architecture, an N6 interface is adopted between the server and the newly added logical Entity MBMS Entity (Entity).
The newly added logical network element MBMS Entity in fig. 3 integrates the functions of BM-SC, MBMS-GW, MME and MCE. The following describes a method and a system for transmitting an MBMS under the architecture based on an MBMS request process.
When the server needs 5GC to provide MBMS load, determining each MBMS Entity corresponding to the MBMS broadcast area in the MBMS entities connected with the server. The server sends MBMS requests to each corresponding MBMS Entity through a corresponding N6 interface, the MBMS requests carry session attributes, and the session attributes comprise: QOS of MBMS, MBMS broadcast area and MBMS sending time.
After receiving the MBMS request from the server, the MBMS Entity (MBMS Entity) performs the following processes:
and (1) allocating a TMGI for the MBMS, wherein the TMGI is used for identifying the MBMS.
Here, the allocation of the TMGI to the MBMS is typically implemented by the BM-SC, which is implemented by the newly added logical Entity MBMS Entity in the present invention.
Step (2), allocating TNL resources for MBMS, comprising: transport network layer IP multicast address, C-TEID for transport MBMS session.
Here, the TNL resource allocation is a function executed by the MBMS-GW in the LTE system, and is implemented by the newly added logical Entity MBMS Entity in the present invention.
And (3) determining each gNB corresponding to the MBMS broadcast area in the gNBs connected with the gNB.
When a list of cells controlled by each gNB connected thereto is stored in the MBMS Entity, the MBMS Entity may determine each cell corresponding to the MBMS broadcast area and the corresponding gNB.
Step (4), the MBMS Entity determines the MBMS sending mode in each MBMS service area corresponding to the MBMS broadcast area or each cell corresponding to the broadcast area: MBSFN mode or SC-PTM mode.
When the MBMS is transmitted in an MBSFN manner in a service area or an area formed by a plurality of cells, the corresponding area is called an MBSFN area, and the MBMS Entity allocates radio resources for the MBMS in a unified manner. In addition to broadcasting the current MBMS in the MBSFN area, there may be at least one MBMS being transmitted in the MBSFN area before the current MBMS. The unified allocation of the radio resources for the MBMS includes: the method comprises the steps of distributing control plane radio resources for MBSFN area control plane information and distributing user plane radio resources for a current MBMS, wherein the MBSFN area control plane information is a set of configuration information of each MBMS which is sent in a corresponding MBSFN mode in a corresponding MBSFN area, the uniformly distributed control plane radio resources are used for sending the MBSFN area control plane information, and the user plane radio resources uniformly distributed for MBMS service are used for sending data of the current MBMS. When an MBMS is transmitted in an SC-PTM manner in one cell, an NR parameter set is determined for the MBMS by an MBMS Entity.
And (5) the MBMS Entity sends the MBMS request to the corresponding gNB through a logic interface M2 on the corresponding Nm interface. The message carries: MBMS session attributes. The session attributes include: TMGI and TNL information (IP multicast address, C-TEID and IP address of multicast source).
When the MBMS is transmitted in SC-PTM mode in a plurality of cells controlled by the gNB, the message also carries SC-PTM information, and the information comprises: QOS for MBMS, cell ID list for transmitting MBMS session in SC-PTM mode and NR parameter set.
When determining that the MBMS session is transmitted in an MBSFN manner in a plurality of cells controlled by the gNB, the information also carries MBSFN area configuration information, which includes: MBMS radio resource allocation information, a cell ID list for transmitting MBMS in an MBSFN manner. The MBMS radio resource allocation information includes: configuration information of a control plane radio resource used by MBSFN regional control plane information and configuration information of a user plane radio resource used by current MBMS data in an MBSFN mode.
The MBSFN area configuration information may also be carried to the gNB through separate MBMS session scheduling information.
After receiving the MBMS request, the gNB performs the following processes:
(1) according to the TNL information in the session attribute, the corresponding IP multicast distribution is joined through logical interface M1 on the Nm interface, in preparation for receiving MBMS data from the MBMS Entity.
(2) When the message has no SC-PTM message, the gNB directly feeds back the MBMS request response to the MBMS Entity.
(3) When the message contains SC-PTM information, each cell corresponding to the cell ID list in the SC-PTM information by the gNB allocates wireless resources for the MBMS according to the NR parameter set and the QOS of the MBMS, wherein the allocating the wireless resources for the MBMS comprises: and allocating control plane radio resources for SC-PTM control plane information and allocating user plane radio resources for the current MBMS. And the SC-PTM control plane information is a set of configuration information of each MBMS sent in a cell in an SC-PTM mode. The control plane radio resource is used for sending SC-PTM control plane information, and the user plane radio resource is used for sending data of the current MBMS.
When the allocation of the radio resources to the MBMS in at least one cell is successful, the gNB feeds back an MBMS request response to the MBMS Entity.
(4) When receiving the MBSFN area configuration information, the gNB saves the configuration information. And the gNB transmits the MBSFN area control plane information in the corresponding cells in an MBSFN manner by adopting the allocated control plane radio resources according to the cell ID list and the configuration information of the control plane radio resources in the configuration information. When receiving the data of the MBMS, the gNB transmits the data of the current MBMS in an MBSFN mode in a corresponding cell by adopting the allocated user plane radio resources according to the cell ID list in the MBSFN area configuration information and the configuration information of the user plane radio resources.
(5) For the MBMS transmitted in the SC-PTM mode, the gNB transmits SC-PTM control plane information in each cell corresponding to the cell ID list through the allocated control plane wireless resources. When receiving the data of the MBMS, the gNB broadcasts the data of the MBMS through the allocated user plane radio resources in each cell corresponding to the cell ID list.
It can be seen that the MBMS Entity shown in fig. 3 integrates the functions of BM-SC, MBMS-GW, MME and MCE.

In fig. 5, the PLMN is H-PLMN when the UE is in a non-roaming scenario; when the UE is in a roaming scene, the PLMN is a V-PLMN. The server may be: GCS AS, V2X servers, and other types of servers. In order to be compatible with the 5GC architecture as much as possible and simplify the MBMS flow under the 5GC architecture, an N6 interface is used between the server and the newly added logical Entity MBMS Entity (Entity).
The newly added logical network element MBMS Entity in fig. 5 integrates the functions of BM-SC, MBMS-GW and MME. The function of the MCE is still performed by the MCE. The following describes a method and a system for transmitting an MBMS under the architecture based on an MBMS request process.
When only the functions of the BM-SC, the MBMS-GW, and the MME are integrated in the MBMS Entity, the MBMS Entity in the architecture shown in fig. 5 cannot perform the processes of steps (4) and (5) compared to the process performed by the MBMS Entity in the architecture shown in fig. 3. Specifically, when the processes of step (1) to step (3) are completed, the MBMS Entity and MCE perform the following processes:
and the MBMS Entity determines each MCE corresponding to the MBMS broadcast area and sends the MBMS request to the corresponding MCE through an M3 interface. The MCE determines the MBMS sending mode in each service area corresponding to the MBMS broadcast area or each cell corresponding to the MBMS broadcast area: MBSFN mode or SC-PTM mode.

Under the architecture shown in fig. 5, after receiving the MBMS request, the gNB performs the same processing as that under the architecture shown in fig. 3. However, the MBMS request response fed back by the gNB in fig. 5 is sent to the MCE through the M2 interface, instead of being fed back to the MBMS entity through the logical interface M2 on the Nm interface according to the architecture in fig. 3.

Wherein: the MBMS entity filters the AMF according to the relevant information (e.g., the list of MBSM service areas) in the MBMS request.
Step 802: the AMF determines an MCE corresponding to an MBMS request from an MCE set and sends the MBMS request to the MCE;
