As shown in fig. 3, the system architecture 200 may include: UE, RAN, Core (Core network) and DN. The UE, RAN, and Core are the main components constituting the architecture, and logically they can be divided into two parts, namely a user plane and a control plane, where the control plane is responsible for the management of the mobile network and the user plane is responsible for the transmission of service data.

It should be noted that the name of the interface between each network element in fig. 3 and fig. 4 is only an example, and the name of the interface in the specific implementation may be other names, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present application. The names of the respective network elements (such as SMF, AF, UPF, etc.) included in fig. 3 and 4 are also only examples, and the functions of the network elements themselves are not limited. In 5GS and other future networks, the network elements may also be named otherwise, and this is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present application. For example, in a 6G network, some or all of the above network elements may use the terminology in 5G, and may also use other names, and so on, which are described herein in a unified manner and will not be described again below. Furthermore, it should be understood that the name of the transmitted message (or signaling) between the network elements is only an example, and the function of the message itself is not limited in any way.
In one example, the system architecture shown in fig. 1 described above may be used to perform a redirection method for a terminal device. Illustratively, the first core network device 30 in the first system determines to redirect the terminal device 10 to the second system according to the capability information of the second system and the network behavior information expected in the second system, which are carried in the registration request when the terminal device 10 is registered in the first system. The first core network device 30 may instruct the first access network device 20 to trigger the handover procedure through the redirection indication information. Then, the first access network device 20 may trigger an intersystem handover by sending a handover required message to the second core network device 50 to handover the terminal device from the first system to the second system, so that the redirection problem between two different systems can be solved. However, if the terminal device initiates a registration request to the first system again after redirection when the terminal device cannot find a cell supporting connection in the second system, at this time, the first system may redirect the terminal device to the second system again according to the registration request of the terminal device, which may result in an excessively long time delay for the terminal device to access the network, that is, the terminal device cannot obtain network service for a long period of time.
Based on this, the embodiment of the present application provides an information sending and receiving method, where when detecting that a system other than the current system is unavailable, a terminal device sends information indicating that the system is unavailable to a network device in the current system, so as to prevent the network device in the system where the terminal device is currently located from redirecting the terminal device to the other system after receiving a registration request of the terminal device, so that the terminal device can obtain a network service in time. In addition, in the embodiment of the application, if the terminal device detects that the other system is unavailable after the network device in the current system redirects the terminal device to the other system, the terminal device sends the information indicating that the other system is unavailable to the network device in the current system, so that the terminal device can be prevented from being redirected to the other system again when the network device in the current system processes the registration request of the terminal device, the terminal device is prevented from being switched back and forth between the current system and the other system, the time delay of acquiring the network service by the terminal device is reduced, and the efficiency of accessing the terminal device to the communication system is improved.
The technical solution of the present application will be described below with reference to several exemplary embodiments.
Referring to fig. 5, a flowchart of an information sending and receiving method provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown, where the method is applicable to the system architectures shown in fig. 1 to fig. 4, and the method may include the following steps:
step 510, the terminal device sends first information to a network device in a second system when detecting that the first system is unavailable.
When accessing a communication system, the terminal device may first detect the system accessibility of the communication system, that is, the terminal device may first detect whether the communication system is accessible, and may access the communication system if the communication system is accessible, and may not access the communication system if the communication system is not accessible. In this embodiment, the terminal device may detect system reachability of the first system, and send the first information to the network device in the second system when detecting that the first system is unreachable, that is, when the first system is unavailable. Optionally, the first system is not available, including at least one of: the terminal device does not detect a cell supporting the first system, for example, the system information of the cell detected by the terminal device indicates that the first system cannot be connected, and the like; the terminal device does not camp on the cell supporting the first system, for example, the channel quality of the cell supporting the first system is not enough to cause the terminal device to camp on, or the cell supporting the first system is prohibited from registering, etc.; the terminal device cannot be successfully registered in the first system, for example, the first system rejects a registration request of the terminal device, or the terminal device has no subscription information, and the like; the terminal equipment can not successfully initiate the service in the first system, for example, the first system does not have the service capability and the like; the cell in which the terminal device resides in the first system does not support the desired service, for example, the first system does not support the CIoT service desired by the terminal device.
The network device in the second system may be a core network device in the second system, and optionally, the network device in the second system may be a core network device in the second system, which is responsible for access management and mobility management of the terminal device, that is, the network device in the second system may be a mobility management network element in the second system. When the second system is implemented as a 5GS system, the network device in the second system may be implemented as an AMF, and when the second system is implemented as an EPS system, the network device in the second system may be implemented as an MME. It should be understood that the second system may also be implemented as other communication systems, and the network device in the second system is implemented as a core network device having the function of the mobility management network element in the other communication systems accordingly. In the embodiment of the application, when detecting that the first system is unavailable, the terminal device may send first information to the network device in the second system, where the first information is used to notify the network device in the second system that the first system is unavailable, that is, after receiving the first information, the network device in the second system may determine, according to the first information, that the first system is unavailable to provide network services for the terminal device. Optionally, the first information is a registration request message, or the first information may be carried in the registration request message, where the registration request message is used to request registration in the second system. Optionally, the first information is sent when the terminal device is redirected from the second system to the first system and the first system is detected to be unavailable, that is, the terminal device initiates a registration request to the second system twice, when the registration request is initiated to the network device in the second system for the first time, the network device in the second system redirects the terminal device to the first system, then the terminal device initiates a registration request to the network device in the second system for the second time when the first system is detected to be unavailable, the registration request message sent to the network device in the second system when the terminal device initiates a registration request for the second time may carry the first information, or the registration request message is the first information. Optionally, if the terminal device detects that the first system is unavailable before initiating the registration request to the network device in the second system for the first time, the terminal device may carry the first information in a registration request message sent when initiating the registration request to the network device in the second system for the first time, or the registration request message is the first information.
In one example, the first information does not include capability information of the first system and/or network behavior information expected by the terminal device in the first system. When the first information received by the second system does not include the capability information of the first system, the second system can confirm that the first system cannot provide network service for the terminal equipment; when the first information received by the second system does not include the network behavior information expected by the terminal device in the first system, the second system may confirm that the terminal device does not desire to access the first system, and further, the second system may confirm that the first system is unavailable according to the first information, so that the terminal device is not redirected to the first system.
Exemplarily, in the case that the first system is an EPS, the capability information of the first system is used to indicate whether the terminal device supports the S1 mode; alternatively, in the case where the first system is the 5GS system, the capability information of the first system is used to indicate whether the terminal device supports the N1 mode.
Exemplarily, in the case that the first system is an EPS, the network behavior information expected by the terminal device in the first system includes at least one of the following: EPS supports or does not support control plane optimization, EPS supports or does not support user plane optimization, control plane optimization is preferred or user plane optimization is preferred in EPS, EPS supports or does not support non-3 GPP protocol data transmission, EPS supports or does not support control plane optimization; or, in the case that the first system is a 5GS system, the network behavior information expected by the terminal device in the first system includes at least one of: 5GS supports or does not support control plane optimization, 5GS supports or does not support user plane optimization, control plane optimization is preferred or user plane optimization is preferred in 5GS, 5GS supports or does not support non-3 GPP protocol data transport, 5GS supports or does not support control plane optimized header compression.
In another example, the first information includes indication information indicating that the first system is unavailable. At this time, the network device in the second system can directly confirm that the first system is unavailable after receiving the first information, so that the terminal device is not redirected to the first system. Optionally, the indication information included in the first information may include: the first indication information is used for indicating that the terminal equipment does not have the capacity of accessing the first system; and/or second indication information for indicating that the terminal device does not expect the network behavior of the first system. The reason why the terminal device does not have the capability of accessing the first system may be that the first system does not support a service expected by the terminal device, or the terminal device does not have subscription information, or the terminal device cannot reside in a cell supporting the first system. Optionally, in order to improve the processing of the indication information by the network device in the second system, and respond to the indication information of the terminal device in time, the first indication information may only explicitly indicate that the terminal device does not have the capability of accessing the first system, and does not need to include a reason that the terminal device does not have the capability of accessing the first system, so as to avoid that the network device in the second system further needs to confirm that the terminal device does not have the capability of accessing the first system according to the reason. Optionally, in order to promote the processing of the indication information by the network device in the second system, and respond to the indication information of the terminal device in time, the second indication information may also only explicitly indicate that the terminal device does not expect the network behavior of the first system.
Although the terminal device may not expect the network behavior of the first system in the current scenario or the current terminal device may not have the capability of accessing the first system, the terminal device may expect the network behavior of the first system in a future scenario or the terminal device may have the capability of accessing the first system. If the network device in the second system to which the terminal device is connected does not clearly know the network device information expected by the terminal device in the first system, after the terminal device expects the network behavior of the first system or the terminal device has the capability of connecting to the first system, the terminal device needs to send the indication information to the network device in the second system again to indicate the network behavior information expected by the terminal device in the first system. Based on this, an embodiment of the present application provides a method, which can avoid that the terminal device sends the indication information to the network device in the second system for multiple times, and avoid redundant signaling overhead, that is, optionally, the first information further includes: network behavior information expected by the terminal device in the first system, and/or network behavior information expected by the terminal device in the second system. That is, when initiating the registration request to the network device in the second system, the terminal device may carry indication information for indicating that the first system is unavailable in the first information, and at the same time carry network behavior information expected by the terminal device in the first system, and/or carry network behavior information expected by the terminal device in the second system, and after receiving the first information, the network device in the second system may store the content in the first information, so as to avoid that, when the second system is available subsequently, the terminal device needs to send the network behavior expected by the terminal device in the first system to the network device in the second system again.
In a possible implementation manner, after the sending the first information to the network device in the second system, the method further includes: the method comprises the steps that when a terminal device detects that a first system is available, update information is sent to network devices in a second system; wherein the update information is used to inform the network device in the second system that the first system is available. After the terminal device sends the first information to the network device in the second system, the network device in the second system may send a registration response message to the terminal device, so that the terminal device accesses the second system and receives the network service. In this embodiment of the application, when the terminal device accesses the second system, the terminal device may further continue to detect the first system to determine whether the first system is available, and when the terminal device detects that the first system is available, the terminal device may send update information to the network device in the second system, where the update information is used to notify the network device in the second system that the first system is available, and after receiving the update information, the network device in the second system may redirect the terminal device to the first system according to the update information. Optionally, the update information comprises at least one of: capability information of the first system, network behavior information expected by the terminal device in the first system, information indicating availability of the first system.
