Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for reducing the signalling load of a GPRS core network system.
  • the GPRS core network system comprises a first UE, a first RNC, a first SGSN, a first core network node, and a first IP network.
  • the first UE is arranged to be in communication with the first RNC.
  • the first RNC is arranged to be in communication with the SGSN for non- 3 GDT communication of the GPRS core network system or the core network node for 3GDT communication of the GPRS core network system.
  • the first SGSN is arranged to be in communication with the first core network node, where the first core network node is arranged to be in contact with the first IP network.
  • One or more service requests originate from the first UE to the SGSN.
  • the SGSN has to handle a high number of (frequent) service requests, which may exhaust the node capacity due to the frequent service request triggered, here called “Update PDP Context Request/Response” between Gn-SGSN and GGSN/PGW or “Modify Bearer Request/Response” between S4-SGSN and SGW.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a method for reducing the signalling load of a GPRS core network system where the previously mentioned problems are avoided. This object is achieved by the features of the characterising portion of claim 1 , wherein the number of service requests from the UE to the SGSN is measured.
  • the purpose of the solution of the present invention is to prevent a core network node, for instance the GGSN/PGW or SGW, from frequent “Update PDP Request” or “Modify Bearer Request” from SGSN due to frequent 3GDT update.
  • a 3GDT will not be set up for certain services.
  • the UE requires to setup RAB by service request, but soon to release the RAB.
  • the services are detected and measured more smartly based on the configuration by the operator.
  • the SGSN can detect if the message type is a Service Request or not.
  • the present invention relates to a method for reducing the signalling load of a GPRS core network system, the GPRS core network system comprising a first UE, a first RNC, a first SGSN, a first core network node, the first core network node being either a GGSN/PGW or a SGW, and a first IP network, where the first UE is arranged to be in communication with the first RNC, where the first RNC is arranged to be in communication with the SGSN for non-3GDT communication of the GPRS core network system or the first core network node for 3GDT communication of the GPRS core network system, where the first SGSN is arranged to be in communication with the first core network node, where the first core network node is arranged to be in contact with the first IP network, where one or more service requests originates from the first UE to the SGSN, where the number of service requests from the UE to the SGSN is measured.
  • the method may also allow for that a 3GDT communication is set up if the configuration of the SGSN allows the setup of a 3GDT communication and the number of service requests from the first UE to the SGSN does not exceed a threshold value.
  • the method may also allow for that a non-3GDT communication for the GPRS core network system is set up instead of the GPRS core network communication if the number of service requests from the first UE to the SGSN has exceeded a threshold value.
  • One advantage of the invention is that it will decrease the signalling load for the core network. This will not introduce extra signalling or message to the existing network but effectively make full use of the legacy message and improve the network quality. Additionally the need for SGSN-MME payload capacity expansion is greatly reduced. Costly hardware upgrades can be avoided and the number of SGSN-MMES can be reduced even with many mobile broadband and payload intensive subscribers in the network.

  • the first core network node 5 is arranged to be in contact with the PGW 10
  • the PGW 10 is arranged to be in connection with the first IP network 6 .
  • 3GDT enables the setup of a GPRS Tunnelling Protocol (GTP) tunnel for transporting the payload traffic between the GGSN/PGW 5 and RNC 3 directly, thus bypassing the SGSN 4 .
  • GTP GPRS Tunnelling Protocol
  • a GTP-U tunnel for transporting traffic between the GGSN/PGW 5 and RNC 3 directly is referred to as the direct tunnel.
  • the configuration where 3GDT is not activated and the SGSN 4 is not bypassed is referred to as the two-tunnel solution.
  • the SGSN 4 decides on a RNC 3 , GGSN/PGW 5 , APN, and optionally on subscriber basis if 3GDT should be used.
  • the RNC configuration in the SGSN 4 specifies if an RNC 3 supports a direct user-plane connection. Whether to allow 3GDT on GGSN/PGW, APN (APN-based 3GDT configuration), and optionally subscriber basis is specified through the configuration in the SGSN 4 , HLR and DNS.
  • a direct tunnel between the GGSN/PGW 5 and RNC 3 replaces the two-tunnel solution in the user plane and the SGSN 4 then continuously updates both the GGSN/PGW 5 and RNC 3 with information regarding the user-plane TEID values and IP addresses.
  • the control traffic is routed as in the two-tunnel solution.
  • Configuring 3GDT on a GGSN/PGW 5 , APN, and subscriber basis enables the use of 3GDT, for example, for payload extensive and stationary MSs, by bypassing the SGSN 4 for the user plane while mitigating the capacity impact of continuously keeping the RNC 3 and GGSN/PGW 5 updated.
  • the SGSN 4 checks if 3GDT should be used each time a PDP context is activated, either as MS activated or by means of an Inter SGSN Routing Area Update (ISRAU), an Inter SGSN Inter-Radio Access Technology (IRAT) PS Handover from GSM to WCDMA Systems, or an Inter SGSN Serving Radio Network Subsystem (SRNS) relocation. Also, each time a new serving RNC is selected the use of 3GDT for a PDP context is checked.
  • ISRAU Inter SGSN Routing Area Update
  • IRAT Inter SGSN Inter-Radio Access Technology
  • SRNS Inter SGSN Serving Radio Network Subsystem
  • the set-up of the Radio Access Bearers includes information necessary for the transport of user data between the RABs.
  • the direct tunnel uses one user-plane IP address and TEID value for each of its tunnel endpoints.
  • the IP address and TEID value are configured in each node. If the user-plane IP address and TEID value are updated at the RNC 3 tunnel endpoint, the opposite node must be updated also.
  • a RAB is updated if the corresponding PDP context is modified.
  • the SGSN 4 is responsible for providing the following information to the GGSN/PGW 5 :
  • the SGSN 4 is responsible for providing the following information to the RNC 3 :
  • a GTP-U tunnel is established between the SGSN 4 and GGSN/PGW 5 for handling the downlink packets. This until the direct tunnel is re-established between the GGSN/PGW 5 and the RNC 3 .
  • the SGSN 4 switches between using the direct tunnel and the two-tunnel solution.
  • 3GDT For a Gn-SGSN, 3GDT will not be set-up for non-roaming traffic. But for an S 4 -SGSN, 3GDT can be set-up for both roaming and non-roaming traffic depending on the configuration.
  • the PDP Context is always updated in the GGSN/PGW or SGW when the MS moves to another RNC during all types of Routing Area Updates (RAUs).
  • the roaming transport, Gp remains in the SGSN-MME.
  • the SGSN-MME might disconnect the tunnel between the RNC and the GGSN/PGW or SGW.
  • the SGSN-MME sets up the classic two tunnel solution between the RNC and the SGSN-MME, as well as between the SGSN-MME and the GGSN/PGW.
  • the SGSN-MME releases the direct tunnel between the RNC and the SGW.
  • this feature also supports the S 12 interface.
  • FIG. 3 schematically illustrates a block diagram showing an implementation of the method according to the invention.
  • the two tunnel solution When the rate of Service Requests for this event has reached a predetermined threshold in a predetermined measurement interval a two tunnel solution starts to set up from now on.
  • the two tunnel solution may be set up for a predetermined period of time or indefinitely, depending on the operator's configuration.
  • the predetermined threshold is 5
  • the predetermined measurement interval may be one minute and the predetermined period of time is 10 minutes. This would mean that the SGSN 4 receives a service request from the same UE 2 five times in one minute. The SGSN 4 may then choose the two-tunnel solution for 10 minutes. The two tunnel solution may in addition to the 10 minutes be active indefinitely depending on configuration conditions set by the operator.
  • Other suitable predetermined values of threshold, measurement interval and period of are of course conceivable.
  • 3GDT impacts both payload and signalling, on network as well as on node level, it is strongly recommended to perform a network analysis of the specific operator traffic case. This is done in order to determine optional configurations and node sizes.
  • payload and signalling sums that affect dimensioning are strongly recommended.
