Description

Parameter configuration method and related device

Technical Field

The present application relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a parameter configuration method and a related apparatus.

Background

Voice over long term evolution (VoLTE) is a mainstream scheme for implementing voice service and voice roaming in Long Term Evolution (LTE) era. The VoLTE is used as the key capability of operators to build the next generation of converged communication, and can provide richer high-quality audio and video service experience for users.

The functionality supported by different operator deployed VoLTE networks may be different and the internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) parameters in different operator deployed VoLTE networks may be different. For a VoLTE network deployed by an operator, when a terminal device needs to implement a service supported by the VoLTE network, an equipment provider leaving the factory needs to acquire an IMS parameter of the VoLTE network from the operator in advance, configure the IMS parameter for the terminal device, and then perform real network verification on the terminal device by the equipment provider to keep the same with a real network. Therefore, the IMS parameter configuration method is low in efficiency, and influences the commercial process of VoLTE.

The communication system shown in fig. 1a is illustrated by way of example as a network device and a terminal device.

The network device in fig. 1a is a network device in a first network, which is a Core Network (CN). Taking the LTE communication system as an example, the CN may include a Mobility Management Entity (MME) network element, a Serving Gateway (SGW), a packet data network gateway (PDN GW), a Home Subscriber Server (HSS), and the like.

Referring to fig. 1b, fig. 1b is a schematic structural diagram of another communication system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The communication system comprises one or more network devices in the radio access network (which may also be referred to as access network devices) in addition to the terminal device and the network device in the first network. Fig. 1b illustrates an example in which the radio access network includes an access network device. The access network device may be configured to forward information that is to be sent by the network device in the first network to the terminal device, and may also be configured to forward information that is to be sent by the terminal device to the network device in the first network. In the embodiment of the present application, the access network device includes but is not limited to: a base station, an evolved Node B (eNB), a Node B (NB), a baseband unit (BBU), an Access Point (AP) in a wireless fidelity (WIFI) system, a wireless relay Node, a wireless backhaul Node, a transmission point (TRP) or a Transmission Point (TP), and the like.

With the collaborative development of Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD) and Time Division Duplexing (TDD), more and more operators are invested in the deployment and construction of voice over time (VoLTE) networks. VoLTE is a mainstream scheme for implementing voice service and voice roaming in the Long Term Evolution (LTE) era. In VoLTE, a Single Radio Voice Call Continuity (SRVCC) scheme or an enhanced single radio voice call continuity (eSRVCC) scheme is adopted to implement the continuity of voice service. The VoLTE is used as the key capability of operators to build the next generation of converged communication, and can provide richer high-quality audio and video service experience for users.

Different operators may have different network conditions, different customer groups, different numbers, and different specific requirements, and may have different functions supported by the deployed VoLTE network, so that the internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) parameters of the deployed VoLTE network may be different for the different operators. The functions supported by the VoLTE network deployed by the operator may include one or more of the following: LTE-based video telephony (video over LTE), WiFi-based voice telephony (VoWiFi), Short Message Service (SMS) based on internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS), emergency telephony (emergency call PS) based on Packet Switch (PS) domain, and so on. The ViLTE is an important supplement of VoLTE and can be used for meeting the voice service requirement under the indoor weak coverage condition.

For VoLTE networks deployed by different operators in different countries, equipment manufacturers of outgoing terminal equipment need to customize different IMS parameter configuration schemes to configure IMS parameters of the terminal equipment. An equipment provider of a factory-leaving terminal device needs to acquire the IMS parameters of the VoLTE network from an operator in advance, configure the IMS parameters for the terminal device, and then verify the terminal device in a real network so as to keep the terminal device consistent with the real network. The IMS parameter configuration method is low in efficiency, and influences the commercial process of VoLTE.

In the method, the terminal device can determine the IMS parameters carried during IMS registration according to the received IMS parameter type of the first network, so that the IMS parameter configuration efficiency can be improved.

Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a parameter configuration method 100 according to an embodiment of the present application, where the parameter configuration method 100 can be applied to the communication system shown in fig. 1a, and is described by interaction between a terminal device and a network device in a first network. The parameter configuration method 100 includes the following steps:

s101, in the process that the terminal equipment accesses the first network, reporting first indication information, wherein the first indication information is used for indicating that the terminal equipment supports an IMS function. Correspondingly, the network equipment receives the first indication information of the terminal equipment.

In an optional implementation manner, the parameter configuration method further includes: the terminal equipment configures IMS parameter groups corresponding to N IMS parameter types respectively, wherein N is a positive integer. In addition, the terminal device may further configure a value of each IMS parameter in each IMS parameter set, where the value of each IMS parameter in each IMS parameter set may be preset. The embodiment is beneficial to the terminal equipment to determine the IMS parameter group corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the first network from the IMS parameter groups respectively corresponding to the N IMS parameter types. Optionally, the configuring, by the terminal device, the IMS parameter sets respectively corresponding to the N IMS parameter types may include: the terminal equipment locally stores IMS parameter groups corresponding to the N IMS parameter types respectively, and stores the value of each IMS parameter in each IMS parameter group.

Each IMS parameter set includes IMS parameters that are required to be carried by the terminal device when performing IMS registration, that is, IMS parameters related to IMS registration. Optionally, each parameter group may include, in addition to the IMS parameter that needs to be carried when the terminal device performs IMS registration, an IMS parameter that is carried when the terminal device performs IMS service, that is, an IMS parameter related to the IMS service.

In addition, the IMS parameter group corresponding to each of the N IMS parameter types is determined according to the IMS configuration of the global operator. For example, based on the requirements of the global operator for VoLTE, 6 sets of IMS parameters can be determined, one for each IMS parameter type. VoLTE functions supported by IMS parameter sets corresponding to different IMS parameter types are not completely the same, that is, services supported by IMS parameter sets corresponding to different IMS parameter types are not completely the same. In addition, as the network evolves or the VoLTE function is supplemented, in addition to the 6 IMS parameter types, an IMS parameter type and an IMS parameter group corresponding to the added IMS parameter type may be added.

The above-mentioned 6 IMS parameter sets include IMS parameter set 1, IMS parameter set 2, IMS parameter set 3, IMS parameter set 4, IMS parameter set 5, and IMS parameter set 6. Specifically, the IMS parameter set 1 may support services of VoLTE, the IMS parameter set 2 may support services of VoLTE and SMS over IMS, the service supported by the IMS parameter set 3 further increases a service of VoWiFi on the basis of the IMS parameter set 2, the service supported by the IMS parameter set 4 further increases a service of ViLTE on the basis of the IMS parameter set 3, the service supported by the IMS parameter set 5 further increases a service of Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD) based on LTE on the basis of the IMS parameter set 4 (over IMS, USSI), and the service supported by the IMS parameter set 6 further increases a service of voice handover between VoWiFi and ViLTE on the basis of the IMS parameter set 5.

In an alternative embodiment, the first indication information is carried in the registration access request. For example, the terminal device carries an IMS _ SUPPORT in a registration access request when initiating an attach access, "IMS _ SUPPORT" is a representation of the first indication information. If IMS _ SUPPORT is 0X1, it indicates that the terminal device SUPPORTs the IMS function. If IMS _ SUPPORT is 0X0, it indicates that the terminal device does not SUPPORT the IMS function, and then the network device may not carry the IMS parameter type of the first network in the complete access and registration success message.

S102, the network equipment sends the IMS parameter type of the first network. Correspondingly, the terminal equipment receives the IMS parameter type of the first network.

In an optional embodiment, the network device sending the IMS parameter type of the first network may include: the network equipment determines an IMS parameter set of the first network according to the VoLTE function supported by the first network; then, the network device sends the IMS parameter type corresponding to the IMS parameter group of the first network. That is to say, when the operator deploys the first network, the operator may select an IMS parameter group corresponding to an appropriate IMS parameter type from the N IMS parameter types to configure according to the VoLTE function supported by the first network.

In an alternative embodiment, the IMS parameter type of the first network is carried in the complete access and registration success message. The complete access and registration success message may indicate that the terminal device is allowed to access the first network. For example, the complete access and registration success message carries IMS _ CONFIG _ Flag, "IMS _ CONFIG _ Flag" is an expression of IMS parameter type. If IMS _ CONFIG _ Flag is 0Xi, i is 1, 2, and N, the IMS parameter type of the first network is indicated. Wherein, 0X1, 0X2, 0XN correspond to N IMS parameter types one by one. If IMS _ CONFIG _ Flag is 0X0, it indicates that the first network does not support the IMS function, or the first network does not have an explicit IMS parameter type, the device manufacturer of the terminal device that needs to leave the factory acquires the IMS parameter from the operator that deploys the first network, and then configures the IMS parameter for the terminal device.

S103, the terminal equipment carries out IMS registration according to the IMS parameter group corresponding to the IMS parameter type.

The IMS registration performed by the terminal device according to the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type may include: and the terminal equipment performs IMS registration according to IMS parameters (namely the IMS parameters which are required to be carried by the terminal equipment when performing IMS registration) related to IMS registration in the IMS parameter group corresponding to the IMS parameter type.

For example, the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type includes IMS parameter 1, IMS parameter 2, and IMS parameter 3. Wherein

IMS parameters

1 and 2 are related to IMS registration. Then, the terminal device carries

IMS parameters

1 and 2 when performing IMS registration.

In an optional implementation manner, the access completion and registration success message also carries one or more IMS parameters, where the one or more IMS parameters are IMS parameters in the first network except for an IMS parameter group corresponding to an IMS parameter type of the first network.

Then, the terminal device may obtain the IMS parameters in the first network except for the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the first network, and further, when performing IMS registration, the terminal device may carry the IMS parameters related to IMS registration in the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type, and also carry the IMS parameters related to IMS registration in the IMS parameters in the first network except for the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the first network.

IMS parameters

1 and 2 are related to IMS registration. The complete access and registration success message also carries IMS parameters 4. If the IMS parameter 4 is related to IMS registration, the terminal device carries the IMS parameter 1, the IMS parameter 2, and the IMS parameter 4 when performing IMS registration. If the IMS parameter 4 is not related to IMS registration, the terminal device carries the IMS parameter 1 and the IMS parameter 2 when performing IMS registration.

In yet another optional implementation manner, the access completion and registration success message further carries one or more IMS parameters, where the one or more IMS parameters are IMS parameters that are not required to be carried in IMS registration in an IMS parameter group corresponding to an IMS parameter type of the first network.

Then, the terminal device learns the IMS parameters that need not be carried in the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the first network during IMS registration, and further, the terminal device does not carry the IMS parameters during IMS registration. Then, the terminal device carries the IMS parameters related to IMS registration, except the IMS parameters in the access completion and registration success message, in the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type when performing IMS registration.

IMS parameters

1 and 2 are related to IMS registration. The successful message of completing access and registration also carries IMS parameter 2, and indicates that the terminal equipment does not need to carry IMS parameter 2 when carrying out IMS parameter. Then, the terminal device carries IMS parameter 1 when performing IMS registration.

In one implementation, the access completion and registration success message carries both the IMS parameters in the first network, except for the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the first network, and the IMS parameters that are not required to be carried in the IMS registration in the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the first network.

IMS parameters

1 and 2 are related to IMS registration. The complete access and registration success message also carries IMS parameters 4, and the IMS parameters 4 are related to IMS registration. The successful message of completing access and registration also carries IMS parameter 2, and indicates that the terminal equipment does not need to carry IMS parameter 2 when carrying out IMS parameter. Then, the terminal device carries

IMS parameters

1 and 4 when performing IMS registration.

In another optional implementation manner, the access completion and registration success message further carries one or more IMS parameters and a value of each IMS parameter in the one or more IMS parameters, where the one or more IMS parameters are IMS parameters in an IMS parameter group corresponding to an IMS parameter type of the first network, and the carried value of the one or more IMS parameters is different from the value of the one or more IMS parameters in the IMS parameter group. Then, the terminal device also carries the IMS parameter related to IMS registration in the one or more IMS parameters when performing IMS registration, and the value of the IMS parameter related to IMS registration is the value of the IMS parameter carried in the message that access is completed and registration is successful.

For example, the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type carried in the access and registration success message includes: IMS parameter 1 related to IMS registration, and the value of IMS parameter 1 in the IMS parameter set is 1. If the successful message of completing the access and the registration also carries the IMS parameter 1 and the value of the IMS parameter 1 is 0. Then, the terminal device carries IMS parameter 1 whose value is 0 when performing IMS registration.

As can be seen, the IMS parameters that can be carried in the message that completes the access and the registration success may be IMS parameters in the first network except for the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the first network, may also be IMS parameters that do not need to be carried in the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the first network during IMS registration, and may also be IMS parameters that have values different from the value of the IMS parameter in the IMS parameter set. It can be seen that, when there is inconsistency between individual IMS parameters in the first network and IMS parameters in the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the first network, the above embodiment is beneficial to supplement the inconsistent IMS parameters in the access completion and registration success message.

With reference to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a structure of a part of a message for completing access and registration success according to an embodiment of the present application. The partial octet (octet) structure of the complete access and registration success message shown in fig. 3 includes octet1 for carrying IMS parameter types, and reserved octets 2, octets 3 and octets 4. The octet2, the octet3 and the octet4 may be configured to carry IMS parameters in the first network except for an IMS parameter set corresponding to an IMS parameter type of the first network, and/or IMS parameters that are not required to be carried in IMS registration in the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the first network, and/or a value of the carried IMS parameter is different from a value of the IMS parameter in the IMS parameter set. That is, octet2, octet3 and octet4 may be used to carry IMS parameters in the first network that are inconsistent with the set of IMS parameters corresponding to the IMS parameter type.

In summary, in the parameter configuration method 100, in the process of accessing the first network, the terminal device reports the first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate that the terminal device supports the IMS function. And after receiving the first indication information, the network equipment sends the IMS parameter type of the first network. And the terminal equipment performs IMS registration according to the IMS parameter group corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the first network.

It can be seen that the terminal device can determine the IMS parameters carried during IMS registration by receiving the IMS parameter type of the first network, and compared with a method in which an equipment provider obtains the IMS parameters of the VoLTE network from an operator to configure the IMS parameters of the terminal device, the method can improve the efficiency of configuring the IMS parameters, and is beneficial to promote the commercial process of global IMS (including VoLTE/volwifi) in terms of configuration time and economic applicability.

Based on the communication system shown in fig. 1b, an embodiment of the present application further provides a parameter configuration method 200 as shown in fig. 4 a. The parameter configuration method 200 is illustrated with the interaction between the terminal device, the access network device, and the network device in the first network. The parameter configuration method 200 includes the following steps:

s201, in the process of accessing the first network, the terminal device reports first indication information, and the first indication information is used for indicating that the terminal device supports the IMS function. Correspondingly, the access network equipment receives the first indication information from the terminal equipment.

In an alternative embodiment, the method further comprises: the terminal equipment configures N IMS parameter groups corresponding to the IMS parameter types respectively, wherein each IMS parameter group comprises IMS parameters which are required to be carried when the terminal equipment carries out IMS registration; the IMS parameter sets corresponding to the N IMS parameter types are determined according to IMS configuration of a global operator, and N is a positive integer. For a detailed description, reference may be made to the related description in the parameter configuration method 100, which is not described herein.

In addition, a specific flow of the terminal device sending the IMS service configuration request in step S206 and the as (volteeas) receiving the IMS service configuration request may be as shown in fig. 5. In fig. 5, the terminal device derives a unified domain name from a built-in Universal Subscriber Identity Module (USIM), and sends the unified domain name and an IMS service configuration request to the PDN GW. Wherein, the IMS service configuration request carries IMS parameters related to the IMS service. The PDN GW parses the uniform domain name through a Domain Name System (DNS), obtains an Internet Protocol (IP) address of the service configuration proxy gateway, and forwards the IMS service configuration request to the service configuration proxy gateway based on the IP address of the service configuration proxy gateway. The service configuration proxy gateway authenticates the terminal equipment sending the IMS service configuration request through interaction with the HSS, and forwards the IMS service configuration request to VoLTEAS to which the terminal equipment belongs after the authentication is passed. And the VoLTEAS supplements the service configuration after receiving the IMS service configuration request.

In the parameter configuration method 200, the first indication information reported by the terminal device is forwarded to the network device in the first network by the access network device. The IMS parameter type of the first network sent by the network equipment in the first network is forwarded to the terminal equipment by the access network equipment. The terminal equipment can determine the IMS parameters carried during IMS registration according to the IMS parameter group corresponding to the IMS parameter type forwarded by the access network equipment, and can also determine the IMS parameters carried during IMS service according to the IMS parameter group corresponding to the IMS parameter type forwarded by the access network equipment, so that the configuration efficiency of the IMS parameters is improved.

Specifically, after the VoLTE function supported by the first network is adjusted, the network device in the first network may update the IMS parameter type of the first network according to the adjusted VoLTE function supported by the first network, and send the updated IMS parameter type of the first network. Then, the terminal device may perform IMS registration according to the updated IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the first network. The terminal equipment can also perform IMS service according to the updated IMS parameter group corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the first network. Therefore, the parameter configuration method can avoid IMS registration failure caused by the fact that IMS parameters carried by the terminal equipment are not updated timely when IMS registration is carried out, and can also avoid IMS service failure caused by the fact that the IMS parameters carried by the terminal equipment are not updated timely when IMS service is carried out. And compared with the mode that the equipment provider of the factory-leaving terminal equipment acquires the IMS parameters from the operator again to update the IMS parameter configuration of the terminal equipment, the efficiency of updating the IMS parameters is improved.

In addition, the parameter configuration method shown in fig. 2, 4a or 4b may also be used for updating IMS parameters when the terminal device performs IMS roaming (roaming).

Specifically, when a terminal device accessing a first network roams to a second network, in the process of accessing the second network, information for indicating that the terminal device supports an IMS function is reported. And after receiving the information for indicating that the terminal equipment supports the IMS function, the network equipment in the second network sends the IMS parameter type of the second network. Then, the terminal device may perform IMS registration for the second network according to the IMS parameter set corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the second network. The terminal equipment can also perform IMS service aiming at the second network according to the updated IMS parameter group corresponding to the IMS parameter type of the first network. Therefore, the parameter configuration method can improve the IMS parameter updating efficiency when the terminal equipment performs IMS roaming, further improve the IMS roaming efficiency of the terminal equipment and promote the commercial process of global IMS roaming.
