Detailed Description
The following detailed description of embodiments of the invention refers to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the present invention, are given by way of illustration and explanation only, not limitation.
A first aspect of the present application provides a service sharing method. Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a service sharing method according to an embodiment of the present application, where the service sharing method is applicable to a base station. As shown in fig. 1, the service sharing method includes the steps of:
step S101, receiving a shared service request sent by a terminal.
The shared service request comprises an identifier of a shared operator, and the shared operator is an operator which can provide shared service for the terminal except for a home operator of the terminal.
In some embodiments, the terminal may subscribe to a shared service of the shared operator in addition to using the service of the home operator. When the terminal has a need to use the shared service, the terminal transmits a shared service request to the base station. The base station receives a sharing service request sent by the terminal.
It should be noted that the terminal may subscribe to services of multiple sharing operators, and therefore, the sharing service request sent by the terminal to the base station at least includes an identifier of the sharing operator, so that the base station can uniquely determine the sharing operator corresponding to the sharing service request according to the sharing service request.
It can be understood that the shared service request sent by the terminal may further include other information, so that the terminal obtains a more appropriate and more desirable shared service. For example, the sharing service request further includes the sharing service type, the required sharing service duration, and the like.
Step S102, according to the identification of the sharing operator, obtaining the sharing service subscription information of the sharing operator corresponding to the terminal.
In some embodiments, the base station obtains, according to the identifier of the sharing operator, the shared service subscription information of the sharing operator corresponding to the terminal by sending an information acquisition request to the sharing operator and receiving information feedback. For example, the base station sends a subscription query request to the corresponding sharing operator according to the identifier of the sharing operator, where the subscription query request includes the identifier of the terminal. After receiving the subscription inquiry request, the sharing operator inquires the sharing service subscription information of the terminal according to the identifier of the terminal and the sharing service subscription database, and feeds back the sharing service subscription information of the terminal to the base station. In some implementations, the sharing operator may not return the shared service subscription information of the terminal to the base station, but only return the subscription feedback information whose content is "subscribed" or "unsubscribed".
In some other embodiments, the sharing server broadcasts the sharing service message in the blockchain network, the terminal broadcasts the sharing service subscription message in the blockchain network, and the base station may view the broadcast message in the blockchain network, so as to obtain the sharing service subscription information of the sharing operator corresponding to the terminal according to the broadcast message. The shared server is a server of a shared operator, and the shared service subscription message is a message broadcast by the terminal under the condition of determining to subscribe to the shared service of the shared operator according to the shared service message.
And step S103, determining a target function entity of the terminal according to the shared service subscription information.
Wherein the target functional entity is a functional entity matching the shared service request. For example, if the shared service request is to use a shared service of a first shared operator, the target functional entity is a functional entity of the first shared operator connected to the base station. For another example, if the shared service request is to use a data service of a second shared operator, the target functional entity is a functional entity of the second shared operator connected to the base station.
In some embodiments, the base station selects a functional entity belonging to the shared operator as the target functional entity from the connected functional entities in the case that it is determined that the terminal subscribes to the shared service of the shared operator according to the shared service subscription information.
In some specific implementations, the shared service request includes a shared service type, and the base station should consider a matching relationship between the shared service type and the functional entity when determining the target functional entity. For example, if the shared service request is an access service using a first shared operator, the target functional entity determined by the base station should be an access functional entity connected to the base station and belonging to the first shared operator. For another example, if the shared service request is to use a data service of a second shared operator, the target functional entity determined by the base station should be a data service functional entity connected to the base station and belonging to the second shared operator.
It should be noted that, in the case that the shared service request further includes the shared service class, when determining the target functional entity, the base station should also consider the service quality difference between the functional entities that can provide the same service, so as to select the most matched target functional entity for the terminal.
Step S104, the shared service request is forwarded to the target functional entity, so that the target functional entity provides the shared service for the terminal according to the shared service request.
In some embodiments, after determining the target functional entity, the base station forwards the shared service request to the target functional entity, and the target functional entity receives the shared service request and provides the shared service for the terminal based on the shared service request.
In some specific implementations, when the target functional entity is an access and mobility management functional entity, forwarding the shared service request to the target functional entity, so that the target functional entity provides a shared service for the terminal according to the shared service request, including:
the base station forwards the shared service request to the access and mobility management functional entity. The access and mobility management functional entity receives the shared service request, allocates a network address for the terminal, and opens the access authority of the terminal on the user plane functional entity, so that the terminal accesses the user plane functional entity based on the network address to obtain the shared service.
In the service sharing method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the base station receives the sharing service request sent by the terminal, acquires the sharing service subscription information of the sharing operator corresponding to the terminal according to the identifier of the sharing operator in the sharing service request, determines the target function entity of the terminal according to the sharing service subscription information, forwards the sharing service request to the target function entity, and the target function entity receives the sharing service request and provides the sharing service for the terminal according to the sharing service request, so that the terminal can subscribe and use the sharing service provided by the sharing operator besides the service provided by the home operator, and the use experience of a user can be improved.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart of a service sharing method according to a second embodiment of the present application, where the service sharing method is applicable to a base station. As shown in fig. 2, the service sharing method includes the following steps:
step S201, receiving a sharing service message broadcast by the sharing server in the blockchain network.
The shared server is a server of a shared operator, and the number of the shared operators is one or more.
In some embodiments, the sharing operator publishes the shared service information in the form of a broadcast. For example, the sharing service message is broadcast by the sharing operator in the blockchain network through the sharing server, and the sharing service message broadcast by the sharing server in the blockchain network is received by the base station.
Step S202, receiving a shared service subscription message broadcasted by the terminal in the blockchain network.
Wherein the shared service subscription message is a message broadcast by the terminal in case of determining to subscribe to the shared service of the shared operator according to the shared service message.
In some embodiments, the terminal also subscribes to a shared service of a shared operator over the block-chain network. For example, the terminal receives a sharing service message broadcast by the sharing server, determines whether to subscribe to the sharing service, and in the case of determining to subscribe to the sharing service, the terminal broadcasts a sharing service subscription message in the block chain network, thereby subscribing to the sharing service of the sharing operator.
Step S203, receiving a shared service request sent by the terminal.
And step S204, acquiring the shared service subscription information of the shared operator corresponding to the terminal according to the identifier of the shared operator.
And step S205, determining a target function entity of the terminal according to the shared service subscription information.
Step S206, the shared service request is forwarded to the target functional entity, so that the target functional entity provides the shared service for the terminal according to the shared service request.
Steps S203 to S206 in this embodiment are the same as steps S101 to S104 in the first embodiment of this application, and are not described herein again.
Step S207, counting the shared service duration of the terminal.
The base station can count the sharing service duration of the terminal through the interactive information of the terminal and the target functional entity.
It should be noted that, in practical applications, some types of shared services are not suitable for using the shared service duration as a parameter for calculating the shared service bill, but need to calculate the shared service bill in combination with the "shared service usage amount" to improve the rationality of the shared service bill.
For example, for the data traffic type sharing service, in addition to the sharing service usage duration, the base station may count the usage amount of the data traffic as a parameter for calculating the sharing service bill; for the call type sharing service, the base station may only count the sharing service usage duration as a parameter for calculating the sharing service bill.
And step S208, generating a sharing service bill according to the sharing service use duration and the sharing service price, and broadcasting the sharing service bill in the block chain network so that the terminal can pay sharing service cost to a sharing operator according to the sharing service bill.
In some embodiments, the base station generates a shared service bill according to the shared service usage duration and the shared service price, and broadcasts the shared service bill in the blockchain network. And after receiving the sharing service bill broadcast by the base station, the terminal pays the sharing service fee to the sharing operator according to the sharing service bill.
It can be understood that, since the shared service bill is published in the blockchain network in the form of broadcast, after receiving the shared service bill, the terminal first needs to determine whether the service bill is a bill belonging to itself, and only when determining that the shared service bill is a bill of itself, the terminal makes a payment.
It should be noted that, the shared service bill issuing and payment operation based on the blockchain network can ensure the authenticity of information by using the non-falsifiable characteristic of the blockchain network, avoid false bills and false payment behaviors, and improve the security of payment.
It should be noted that, in addition to the above embodiments, the terminal and the sharing operator may also complete payment of the sharing service fee by means of pre-charging and automatic fee deduction. For example, after subscribing the sharing service of the sharing operator, the terminal may pre-recharge the account of the sharing operator, and after generating the sharing service bill, the sharing operator directly deducts a corresponding amount from the recharge according to the sharing service bill, and sends the deduction result to the terminal for confirmation. Compared with a payment mode based on a block chain network, the payment mode is simpler and more convenient, and the terminal does not need to perform payment operation after the shared service is used up every time and only needs to confirm.
Fig. 3 is a flowchart of a service sharing method provided in the third embodiment of the present application, where the service sharing method is applicable to a terminal. As shown in fig. 3, the service sharing method includes the steps of:
step S301, sending a sharing service request to the base station, so that the base station obtains the sharing service subscription information of the sharing operator corresponding to the terminal according to the identifier of the sharing operator, determines a target function entity of the terminal according to the sharing service subscription information, and forwards the sharing service request to the target function entity.
The shared service request comprises an identifier of a shared operator, and the shared operator is an operator which can provide shared service for the terminal except for a home operator of the terminal.
In some embodiments, the terminal may subscribe to a shared service of the shared operator in addition to using the service of the home operator. When the terminal has a need to use the shared service, the terminal transmits a shared service request to the base station. The base station receives a shared service request sent by a terminal, acquires shared service subscription information of the terminal corresponding to a shared operator according to an identifier of the shared operator, determines a target function entity of the terminal according to the shared service subscription information, and forwards the shared service request to the target function entity. And the target functional entity receives a sharing service request sent by the base station.
Step S302, obtaining the sharing service through the target functional entity.
Wherein the target functional entity is a functional entity matching the shared service request. For example, if the shared service request is to use a shared service of a first shared operator, the target functional entity is a functional entity of the first shared operator connected to the base station. For another example, if the shared service request is to use a data service of a second shared operator, the target functional entity is a functional entity of the second shared operator connected to the base station.
In some embodiments, when the target functional entity is an access and mobility management functional entity, forwarding the shared service request to the target functional entity, so that the target functional entity provides a shared service for the terminal according to the shared service request, including:
and the base station forwards the shared service request to the access and mobility management functional entity. The access and mobility management functional entity receives the shared service request, allocates a network address for the terminal, and opens the access authority of the terminal on the user plane functional entity, so that the terminal accesses the user plane functional entity based on the network address to obtain the shared service.
In the service sharing method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the base station receives the sharing service request sent by the terminal, acquires the sharing service subscription information of the sharing operator corresponding to the terminal according to the identifier of the sharing operator in the sharing service request, determines the target function entity of the terminal according to the sharing service subscription information, forwards the sharing service request to the target function entity, and the target function entity receives the sharing service request and provides the sharing service for the terminal according to the sharing service request, so that the terminal can subscribe and use the sharing service provided by the sharing operator besides the service provided by the home operator, and the use experience of a user can be improved.
Fig. 4 is a flowchart of a service sharing method according to a fourth embodiment of the present application, where the service sharing method is applicable to a terminal. As shown in fig. 4, the service sharing method includes the following steps:
step S401 receives a sharing service message broadcasted by the sharing server in the blockchain network.
The shared server is a server of a shared operator, and the number of the shared operators is one or more.
In some embodiments, the sharing operator publishes the sharing service information in a broadcast form, and the terminal receives the sharing service information published by the sharing operator. For example, the sharing service message is broadcasted by the sharing operator through the sharing server in the blockchain network, and the terminal receives the sharing service message broadcasted by the sharing server in the blockchain network.
Step S402, under the condition that the shared service of the shared operator is determined to be subscribed, broadcasting a shared service subscription message in the block chain network.
Wherein the shared service subscription message is a message broadcast by the terminal in case of determining to subscribe to the shared service of the shared operator according to the shared service message.
In some embodiments, the terminal receives a sharing service message broadcast by the sharing server, determines whether to subscribe to the sharing service, and in the case of determining to subscribe to the sharing service, the terminal broadcasts a sharing service subscription message in the block chain network, thereby subscribing to the sharing service of the sharing operator.
Step S403, sending a shared service request to the base station, so that the base station obtains shared service subscription information of the shared operator corresponding to the terminal according to the identifier of the shared operator, determines a target functional entity of the terminal according to the shared service subscription information, and forwards the shared service request to the target functional entity.
Step S404, obtaining the shared service through the target functional entity.
Steps S403 to S404 in this embodiment are the same as steps S301 to S302 in the third embodiment of the present application, and are not described again here.
In step S405, a shared service bill broadcasted by the base station in the blockchain network is received.
The sharing service bill is generated by the base station according to the sharing service use duration and the sharing service price of the terminal.
In some embodiments, the base station counts the shared service usage duration of the terminal, generates a shared service bill according to the shared service usage duration and the shared service price, and broadcasts the shared service bill in the blockchain network.
It should be noted that, in practical applications, some types of shared services are not suitable for using the shared service duration as a parameter for calculating the shared service bill, but need to calculate the shared service bill in combination with the "shared service usage amount" to improve the rationality of the shared service bill.
For example, for the data traffic type sharing service, in addition to the sharing service usage duration, the base station may count the usage amount of the data traffic as a parameter for calculating the sharing service bill; for the call type sharing service, the base station may only count the sharing service usage duration as a parameter for calculating the sharing service bill.
It can be understood that, since the shared service bill is published in the blockchain network in the form of broadcast, after receiving the shared service bill, the terminal first needs to determine whether the service bill is a bill belonging to itself, and only when determining that the shared service bill is a bill of itself, the terminal makes a payment.
Step S406, paying sharing service fee to the sharing operator according to the sharing service account.
In some embodiments, after receiving the shared service bill broadcast by the base station, the terminal pays the sharing service fee to the sharing operator through the blockchain network according to the shared service bill.
It should be noted that, the shared service bill issuing and payment operation based on the blockchain network can ensure the authenticity of information by using the non-falsifiable characteristic of the blockchain network, avoid false bills and false payment behaviors, and improve the security of payment.
It should be noted that, in addition to the above embodiments, the terminal and the sharing operator may also complete payment of the sharing service fee by means of pre-charging and automatic fee deduction. For example, after subscribing the sharing service of the sharing operator, the terminal may pre-recharge the account of the sharing operator, and after generating the sharing service bill, the sharing operator directly deducts a corresponding amount from the recharge according to the sharing service bill, and sends the deduction result to the terminal for confirmation. Compared with a payment mode based on a block chain network, the payment mode is simpler and more convenient, and the terminal does not need to perform payment operation after the shared service is used up every time and only needs to confirm.
The steps of the above methods are divided for clarity, and the implementation may be combined into one step or split some steps, and the steps are divided into multiple steps, so long as the same logical relationship is included, which are all within the protection scope of the present patent; it is within the scope of the patent to add insignificant modifications to the algorithms or processes or to introduce insignificant design changes to the core design without changing the algorithms or processes.
