However, the present invention can also be implemented or applied in other different specific implementation forms.

Figure 1 is a schematic architecture diagram of the 5G fixed supply and installation service system of the present invention. The traditional supply and installation system requires a lot of customization from the stage of demand design and specification formulation to system development. If there is a new architecture, equipment or network adjustment, it needs to go through the aforementioned lengthy process, resulting in system maintenance and operation. The heavy burden on the development unit, especially the high flexibility and high variability of equipment in the 5G network, makes it difficult for the traditional line-fixed network supply and installation system to bear such huge changes. In this regard, the present invention uses service specification description standardization and development Open Digital Architecture (ODA), combined with the concepts of Agile software development and continuous integration/deployment, to meet the needs of rapid development and agile delivery. The 5G fixed supply and installation service system 1 of the present invention includes a dynamic service assembly module 11 , a 5G fixed service and network slice design module 12 , a supply and installation service process design module 13 and a supply and installation service analysis module 14 .

The dynamic service assembly module 11 pre-stores the existing general service management data in the service management directory, and extracts the corresponding process from the general service management data according to the service description file of the basic assembly necessary for the supply and installation service requirements and rules to generate new service provisioning procedures. In short, the dynamic service assembly module 11 uses the existing general-purpose service management data in the service management directory, and refers to the service description files necessary for basic assembly of new services (ie supply and installation service requirements), and retrieves the information in each general-purpose service description file. According to the service application and installation situation, a new service provisioning and opening procedure is generated.

Specifically, the dynamic service assembly module 11 can avoid the trouble of redeveloping processes and programs in the development of new services in the past, even if existing services are bundled, and can flexibly assemble and disassemble existing services, such as stacking or dismantling Like building blocks, it can be combined into new building block shapes arbitrarily, and new products that meet customer needs can be changed. In one embodiment, the present invention utilizes the service code algorithm, which can save the time of developing programs and testing, that is, the service process design module 13 has service codes, and only needs to be checked in the interface during service assembly. It can provide services online, and for the era of emphasizing personalized and characteristic products, the present invention provides various customized services that do not require time-consuming development, so as to realize the customization of a small number of diversified products, so it has the characteristics of repeated use and cost saving .

The 5G fixed service and network slicing design module 12 is based on the supply and installation service requirements, and corresponds to the corresponding equipment architecture in the existing database, so as to automatically generate the recommended network architecture or Network slicing design, and determine the network architecture required for actual operation. Specifically, the 5G fixed service and network slicing design module 12 can correspond to the existing data according to the service data input by the designer The corresponding equipment architecture in the library automatically generates the recommended network architecture or network slice design for the service installation required for 5G fixed-service services, and provides the installation service process design module 13 for use after review, such as the proposed network architecture Or the network slicing design can be reviewed by maintenance and operation designers, and the network architecture required for actual operation can be determined according to the review results, and then sent to the installation service process design module 13 for use.

Specifically, the supply and installation service process design module 13 has the unit test automatic generation service, that is, it can automatically compare the previous data according to the process design. If the previous unit test can be reused, there is no need to generate a new test case , directly use the previous unit test case. The following is an example to illustrate whether the previous unit test logic design should be used for generating unit tests: for each 5G fixed service, after the design of the 5G fixed service and network slice design module 12, the service process design module 13 will be installed. The designed supply and installation service process will be generated, in which each process supply station has an independent binary digit representation, for example, network resource adjustment is represented by the first digit of the binary digit, and switch activation is represented by the binary digit The fifth digit of indicates that if there is exactly one service, its supply and installation only needs to go through the network resource adjustment station and the switch activation station. Its design code can be 10001, converted to decimal is 17; according to the above rules, assuming that there is a 5G fixed service, the design code for the process supply and installation suggestion in the 5G fixed service and network slice design module 12 is 57, Converted into a binary number to represent 111001, where the median of the binary number is 1, it means that the service will pass through this supply station, that is, if the code of the supply station is 654321 (number 1 on the far right and number 6 on the left) ), and the design code is 111001, then this service code is 57 and needs to go through the first, fourth, fifth, and sixth loading stations.

Then, use the XNOR gate feature to compare with the previous service to determine which test units can be reused. For example, there was a 5G fixed service previously, and its design code was 45, which was converted into binary The number represents 101101. The answer of these two services is 43 through XNOR gate conversion, and the binary number is 101011, which means that the two services can share the test cases in the first, second, fourth and sixth supply stations. In summary, this The invention utilizes this characteristic, which can greatly reduce the cases of unit tests, improve the detection performance of subsequent modules, and has the flexibility of site expansion.
