- the attach accept message includes a security parameter, where the security parameter includes: an authentication parameter for the terminal to perform legality authentication on the MA, and a time for authorizing the MA to provide the mobile proxy service.
- the segment the area where the authorized MA provides the mobile agent service (for example, the TA list that the MA can serve), and the number of terminals that the authorized MA provides the mobile agent service.
- the security parameter is delivered in the attach accept message.
- the main reason is that not only the network needs to authenticate the MA, but the subsequent terminal also authenticates the MA to verify that the MA has been authorized by the network to authorize its time period at a specific time.
- the area provides mobile agent services for a specific number of terminals.
- the advertisement message is sent by using a wireless signal to notify the presence of the advertised message in the specific range.
- the advertised message includes: the ID of the MA, the GUTI allocated by the network for the MA, and the tracking area list TAList allocated by the MME for the MA.
- the current TA of the MA, the security parameters, and the capacity of the MA (the number of terminals that the MA has served and the number of terminals that can also be served, or the percentage of load).
- the sending of the advertisement message by the MA in a specific range is that the MA wants the terminal in the specific range to receive the advertisement message, that is, the specific range is a range in which the terminal can perform binding movement with the MA.

Description
移动性管理方法、 移动性管理装置及终端设备 本申请要求于 2008 年 11 月 3 日提交中国专利局、 申请号为 200810175513.0、发明名称为 "移动性管理方法、移动性管理装置及终端设备" 的中国专利申请的优先权, 其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本发明涉及通信技术领域,特别涉及移动性管理方法、移动性管理装置及 终端设备。
背景技术
移动通信系统中,在终端附着到网絡中后, 网络侧会给终端分配一个无线 覆盖范围, 称为寻呼区。 如果网络需要发送信令或者用户面数据给终端, 则会 在这个寻呼区的范围内向终端发送寻呼消息; 当终端从当前寻呼区移出时,需 要通过发起一个位置更新请求流程通知网络侧。
现有技术中,终端注册的移动性管理实体会为终端分配临时标识, 以标识 该终端, 便于后续利用这个临时标识寻呼终端。
在此过程中,如果移动性管理实体发生了切换,那么新的移动性管理实体 需要给终端分配新的临时标识,并向终端发送携带新的临时标识的位置更新接 受消息。
显然, 终端移动的越快, 其发起位置更新请求就越频繁, 就越有可能发生 移动性管理实体的切换。 而人自身的移动速度和范围都是有限的,要想以较快 的速度在大范围内移动, 一般要借助交通工具, 如公共汽车、 地铁、 火车和轮 船等, 在交通工具上的所有终端都以一致的方向和速度进行移动。
在某些场合下, 如游行、 示威, 也可能出现大量步行的人群一起移动的情 况。
现有技术的缺点是:
由终端注册的移动性管理实体为该终端分配临时标识,该临时标识仅能标 识该终端, 并不能表示与其他网络设备的关联; 当大量处于同一位置, 以一致 的方向和速度一起移动的终端在从当前寻呼区移出、发生移动性管理实体发生 切换时,其切换后的移动性管理实体会给每一个发生切换的终端分配新的临时 标识, 以标识对应终端, 加重了网络负担。

具体实施方式
实施例一:
本发明实施例一提供一种移动性管理方法, 该方法具体包括:
MA ( Mobile Agent, 移动代理)所注册的第一移动性管理实体在接收到 终端发送的绑定请求消息后, 获取终端的 Index, 利用所述终端的 Index和 MA 的第一临时标识构成终端的第一临时标识,向所述终端发送所述第一临时标识 的消息。
其中, 绑定请求消息是用于请求网络侧将终端与 MA绑定的。
其中, MA可以是一个终端, 其与普通终端的区别在于具有网络授权的移 动代理功能, 即可以代表在自己信号覆盖范围内的各 UE ( User Equipment, 用 户设备 ), 当 MAJ^生移动时, 网络侧会认为其所代表的 UE也相应的发生了移 动。
其中, 终端的 Index用于标识不同的终端。 例如: 在 MA的信号覆盖范围内 唯一标识终端。
本发明实施例一将 MA与终端进行绑定, 利用终端的 Index和 MA的第一临 时标识构成终端的第一临时标识并传输给终端, 使终端的第一临时标识与 MA 相关联。
实施例二:
参阅图 1 , 本发明实施例二提供一种移动性管理方法, 该方法具体包括: 步骤 A、 网络侧对 MA进行认证, 向 MA返回安全信息; MA广播通告消息, 通告消息中携带安全信息; 终端根据安全信息对 MA进行认证, 确认 MA得到 网络授权可以提供移动代理。
步骤 B、 第一移动性管理实体接收终端发送的绑定请求消息, 将终端上下 文与 MA上下文绑定; 获取终端的 Index, 利用终端的 Index和 MA的第一临时标 识构成终端的第一临时标识并保存在终端上下文中,向终端发送携带终端的第 一临时标识的绑定成功指示信息。
可选的,第一移动性管理实体也可以不在绑定成功指示信息中携带终端的 第一临时标识, 比如第一 GUTI ( Globally Unique Temporary Identity, 全球唯一 临时标识), 而是在 GUTI重分配消息中携带, 不影响本发明的实现。
同时, 终端保存该第一临时标识, 从第一临时标识中获取自身的 Index。 在终端与 MA绑定后, 网络侧会认为终端和 MA—起移动, 因此, 只需要
MAJ^起位置更新请求, 终端在 TA ( Tracking Area, 跟踪区) 间移动时不需要 再进行单独的位置更新流程。
步骤 C、 MA发生移动, 进入第二移动性管理实体的管理范围, MA向第 二移动性管理实体发送位置更新请求,第二移动性管理实体接收到位置更新请 求后, 从第一移动性管理实体获取 MA上下文和与 MA上下文绑定的终端上下 文, 分配 MA的第二临时标识, 利用终端的 Index和 MA的第二临时标识构成终 端的第二临时标识保存在终端上下文中; 将 MA的第二临时标识向 MA发送。
步骤 D、 MA向终端广播 MA的第二临时标识 , 终端利用自身的 Index和 MA 的第二临时标识构成终端的第二临时标识。
其中, 步骤 C中将 MA的第二临时标识向 MA发送, 由 MA向终端广播 MA 的第二临时标识, 也可以采用其他的实现方式, 比如, 第二移动性管理实体冲艮 据与 MA上下文绑定的终端上下文, 确定与该 MA绑定的终端, 直接向与该 MA
綁定的终端发送 MA的第二临时标识, 不影响本发明的实现。
其中, 步骤 A具体包括如下步骤:
Al、 MA^起附着请求消息, 该附着请求消息中携带指示自己是 MA的信 ft
A2、 MME ( Mobile Management Entity, 移动性管理实体)接收到附着请 求消息后, 从 HSS ( Home Subscriber Server, 归属用户服务器)或者 AAAI艮务 器 ( Authentication, Authorization、 Accounting Server, 養权、 授权、 计费月艮务 器)获取签约数据, 对 MA进行认证。
A3、 MME在对 MA认证成功后, 向 MA返回附着接受消息, 该附着接受消 息中包括安全参数,安全参数包括:供终端对 MA进行合法性认证的认证参数、 授权 MA提供移动代理服务的时间段、 授权 MA提供移动代理服务的区域(例 如 MA可以服务的 TA列表)、 授权 MA提供移动代理服务的终端数量。
该步驟中在附着接受消息中下发安全参数主要是考虑到不仅网络要对 MA 进行认证 , 后续终端也要对 MA进行认证 , 以验证 MA已经得到网络的授权 , 授权其在特定时间的时间段、 区域为特定数量的终端提供移动代理服务。
A4、 MA注册完成后, 在特定范围内通过无线信号发送通告消息, 以通告 自己的存在, 通告消息中包括: MA的 ID、 网络为 MA分配的 GUTI、 MME为 MA分配的跟踪区列表 TAList、 MA当前所在的 TA、安全参数和 MA的容量( MA 已经服务的终端数及还可以服务的终端数, 或者负荷百分比)。
其中, MA在特定范围内发送通告消息是 MA希望该特定范围内的终端能 够接收到通告消息, 即该特定范围是终端可以与 MA进行绑定移动的范围。
该步骤中 MA发送通告消息可以是通过专门规划的频段和格式发送通告消 息,也可以利用移动通信系统现有的广播消息的频段发送通告消息,其通告消 息的格式也可以采用现有的广播消息的格式并在消息中增加特有的参数, 如 MA的 ID等。
上述步骤是通过附着流程完成 MA的认证过程, 也可以通过其他流程, 例 如 TAU ( Tracking Area Update, 跟踪区更新)流程完成 MA的认证过程, 也可 以通过新增流程完成上述 MA的认证过程, 不影响本发明的实现。
A5、 终端进入 MA的信号覆盖区域, 接收到通告消息, 并确认自己特定时
长内一直处于该 MA的信号覆盖区域内, 即确认自己粘连在 MA上; 终端根据 通告消息中的安全参数对 MA进行认证 , 确认当前 MA得到网络授权可以提供 移动代理的服务。
其中, 确认自己特定时长内一直处于该 MA的信号覆盖区域内的实现方式 具体可以是: 终端内设有定时器, 若在定时器所计的特定时长内, 该终端没有 移出 MA的信号覆盖范围, 则确定终端与 MA粘连,该 MA为终端待绑定的 MA。
在终端确认待绑定的 MA后 ,从该 MA的通告消息中获取 MA的 ID和网络为 MA分配的 GUTI, 其中, 网络为 MA分配的 GUTI可指示 MA所注册的移动管理 实体的寻址信息。
由于终端和 MA很可能都处于移动过程中, 在某些情况下可能是很短的时 间内终端处于某个 MA的信号覆盖区域内 , 然后就离开了该 MA的信号覆盖范 围, 例如安装了 MA的公共汽车行驶到一个终端附近时, 恰好位于公共汽车外 面的终端接收到该 MA的通告消息, 由于这种情况下终端不需要和 MA绑定, 所以需要终端确认自己特定时长内一直处于该 MA的信号覆盖区域内才能判断 自己在跟随该 MA移动。
参阅图 2, 步骤 B具体包括如下步骤:
Ml、 终端发送 TAU请求消息, 该 TAU请求消息是绑定请求, 该消息中携 带终端所注册的移动性管理实体的寻址信息、 终端待绑定的 MA的 ID和 MA所 注册的移动性管理实体的寻址信息以及绑定指示。终端可以在确认自己粘连在 MA后任何时机发起绑定, 作为一个较优的实施方案, 本发明实施例的终端在 确认自己粘连在 MA后的下一个 TAU发起绑定(该下一个 TAU可以是终端移出 当前跟踪区所触发的 TAU,或者终端上控制周期性触发 TAU请求的定时器超时 所触发的 TAU )。其中 MA所注册的移动性管理实体的寻址信息填写在 TAU请求 消息中的用于无线接入网路由绑定请求消息的字段内。由于用于无线接入网路 由绑定请求消息的字段原来是填写终端所注册的移动性管理实体的寻址信息 的, 为了便于无线接入网络将该绑定请求消息路由到 MA所注册的第一移动性 管理实体 MME1 ( Mobility Management Entity, 移动性管理实体)上, 在用于 无线接入网路由绑定请求消息的字段中填写 MA所注册的移动性管理实体的寻 址信息;而将终端所注册的移动性管理实体的寻址信息放在消息中一个新增的
信元中。 其中 MA所注册的移动性管理实体的寻址信息可以是 MA的 GUTI; 终 端所注册的移动性管理实体的寻址信息可以是终端的 GUTI。 无线接入网会根 据该 TAU请求消息中 MA的 GUTI中的移动性管理实体代码 MME Code将消息 路由到 MA所注册的第一移动性管理实体 MME1 ( Mobility Management Entity, 移动性管理实体)。
M2、 MME1通过 MA的 GUTI在本地查找到 MA上下文, MME1通过终端的 GUTI中的 MME Code确认终端当前注册在自己上还是注册在其他 MME上, 如 果终端注册在其他 MME上, 则 MME1从其他 MME (即终端当前注册的 MME ) 获取终端上下文, 如果终端当前注册在自己上面, 则 MME直接根据终端的 GUTI查找预存的终端上下文。
M3、 MME1将终端上下文关联到 MA上下文, 此后, MME1知道后续该绑 定终端将和 MA—起移动, MME1为终端分配索引 Index, 利用 MA的第一 GUTI ( Globally Unique Temporary Identity,全球唯一临时标识)和终端的 Index构成 终端的第一 GUTI并保存在终端的上下文中 , 此时终端的第一 GUTI是扩展的 GUTI。 MME1向终端返回携带第一 GUTI的绑定成功指示信息, 该绑定成功指 示信息可以是 TAU接受消息, 以指示绑定成功。
其中, MME1为终端分配索引 Index时, 需要保证 Index的唯一性, 即由终 端的 Index和 MA的第一 GUTI可以唯一的标识终端;
其中 , MME1向终端返回的携带终端的第一 GUTI的绑定成功指示信息还 包括: 指示终端的第一 GUTI是扩展的 GUTI的信息, 具体可以由如下两种实现 方式:
第一种方式为: 绑定成功指示信息中携带指示终端的第一 GUTI是否是扩 展的 GUTI的信元。
第二种方式为: 利用终端的第一 GUTI中的某一比特位指示终端的第一 GUTI是否是扩展的 GUTI。
在具体的实现过程中, MME1为 MA分配的第一 GUTI可以与传统的 GUTI 具有相同的长度, 此时终端的第一 GUTI就比传统的 GUTI的长度长。 优选的, 终端的第一 GUTI有可能与传统的终端的 GUTI具有相同的长度, 此时, MME1 为 MA分配的 GUTI比传统的 GUTI短一点, 可以称为特殊的 GUTI, 该特殊的
GUTI中带有 MME Code, 可以保证寻址到 MME1, MME1利用该特殊的 GUTI 和终端的 Index形成终端的第一 GUTI,此时,需要告诉终端该终端的第一 GUTI 中哪部分是特殊的 GUTI (即 MA的第一 GUTI ), 哪部分是 Index, 因此, 需要 在綁定成功指示信息中携带特殊的 GUTI的起始比特位指示信息,或 /和, Index 起始比特位指示信息, 以便终端知道哪部分是特殊的 GUTI, 哪部分是 Index, 后续利用 Index和 MA的第二临时标识形成终端的第二临时标识。 在这种情况 下, 也可以将该特殊的 GUTI的起始比特位指示信息, 或 /和, Index起始比特位 指示信息保存在终端上下文或者 MA上下文中, 以便后续终端和 MA移动到其 他 MME时, 其他 MME知道哪部分是特殊的 GUTI, 哪部分是 Index。 如果网络 侧在各 MME上已静态配置终端的 GUTI中哪部分是特殊的 MA的 GUTI ,哪部分 是 Index, 则不需要再将特殊的 GUTI的起始比特位指示信息, 或 /和, Index起 始比特位指示信息保存在终端上下文或者 MA上下文中, 后续终端和 MA移动 到其他 MME时, 其他 MME根据网络配置就知道终端的 GUTI中哪部分是特殊 的 MA的 GUTI, 哪部分是 Index。 同理, 如果网络侧在 UE上已静态配置终端的 GUTI中哪部分是特殊的 MA的 GUTI, 哪部分是 Index, 则不需要再将特殊的 GUTI的起始比特位指示信息,或 /和, Index起始比特位指示信息保存在终端上 下文或者 MA上下文中了。
终端接收 MME1发送的绑定成功指示信息,从该绑定成功指示消息中获取 终端的第一 GUTI , 并根据指示终端的第一 GUTI是否是扩展的 GUTI的信息 , 获知终端的第一 GUTI是扩展的 GUTI。
上述步骤 B中终端通过发起 TAU清求消息, 以请求网络侧将终端与 MA绑 定的, 终端也可以通过发起附着请求, 以请求网络侧将终端与 MA绑定, 不影 响本发明的实现。
可选的, 参阅图 3, 步骤 B具体包括如下步骤:
Nl、 终端向 MA^_起 TAU请求, 该 TAU请求是绑定请求, 该消息中携带终 端的 GUTI,该消息还可以携带 MA的相关信息, MA的相关信息包括: MA的 ID、 MA当前所在的 TA、 MA的 GUTI等。如果该 TAU请求中不携带 MA的相关信息, 则 MA会在 TAU请求中加入 MA的相关信息。
N2、 MA为终端分配 Index,将 Index加入终端发送的 TAU请求消息中向 MA
注册的 MME1。
其中 , 该 TAU请求消息是否仍然经过无线接入网取决于 MA选择的回程方 案, 如果 MA选择当前移动通信网的无线链接作为回程, 则该消息需要通过无 线接入网到达网络侧; 如果 MA选择其他的回程方案, 比如卫星、 WLAN (无 线局域网), 则不需要经过无线接入网。
N3、 MME1通过 MA的 GUTI查找到 MA上下文, MME1通过终端的 GUTI 中的 MME Code确认终端当前注册在自己上还是注册在其他 MME上, 如果终 端注册在其他 MME上, 则 MME1从其他 MME (即终端当前注册的 MME )获取 终端上下文, 如果终端当前注册在自己上面, 则 MME直接根据终端的 GUTI查 找预存的终端上下文。
N4、 MME1将终端上下文关联到 MA上下文, 此后, MME1知道后续该绑 定终端将和 MA—起移动 , MME1从 TAU请求消息中获取终端的 Index, 利用 MA的第一 GUTI和终端的 Index构成终端的第一 GUTI并保存在终端的上下文 中, 此时终端的第一 GUTI是扩展的 GUTI。 MME1向终端返回携带终端的第一 GUTI的绑定成功指示信息, 该绑定成功指示信息可以是 TAU接受消息, 以指 示绑定成功。
其中, MME1为终端分配索引 Index时, 需要保证 Index的唯一性, 即由终 端的 Index和 MA的第一 GUTI可以唯一的标识终端;
其中 , MME1向终端返回的携带终端的第一 GUTI的绑定成功指示信息中 还可以携带指示终端的第一 GUTI是否是扩展的 GUTI的信息, 具体可以有两种 实现方式, 与 M3中的实现方式相同, 在此不再赞述。
终端接收 MME1发送的绑定成功指示信息,从该绑定成功指示消息中获取 终端的第一 GUTI , 并根据指示终端的第一 GUTI是否是扩展的 GUTI的信息, 获知终端的第一 GUTI是扩展的 GUTI。
其中, 步骤 C具体包括:
Ql、 MA移出 TA List中的跟踪区, 进入另一个 TA, 发起 TAU请求消息。 由 于 MA原来注册的 MME ( MME1 )不能为新的 TA服务, 所以无线接入网选择 一个新的 MME (第二移动性管理实体 MME2 ) ,将 TAU请求消息路由到 MME2。
Q2、 MME2向 MA原来注册的 MME 1发送获取上下文请求和清除 MA和终
端的绑定关系的指示。
Q3、 MME1向 MME2发送 MA上下文及与 MA绑定的所有终端上下文, 并 清除 MA和终端的绑定关系。 其中, 终端上下文中保存的终端的第一 GUTI包 括: 终端的 Index和 MA的第一 GUTI。
Q4、 MME2保存 MA上下文及与 MA绑定的所有终端上下文, 为 MA分配新 的 GUTI ( MA的第二 GUTI ) , 用 MA的第二 GUTI替换终端的第一 GUTI中的 MA 的第一 GUTI, 以形成终端的第二 GUTI, 并保存在终端上下文中, MME2向 MA 发送携带 MA的第二 GUTI的位置更新接受。
具体的 , 用 MA的第二 GUTI替换终端的第一 GUTI中的 MA的第一 GUTI , 以形成终端的第二 GUTI可以是: 利用终端上下文或者 MA上下文中保存的 MA 的特殊 GUTI的起始比特位指示信息, 或 /和, Index起始比特位指示信息, 确定 MA的第一 GUTI在终端的第一 GUTI中的起始比特位 , 判断 MA的第二 GUTI与 MA的第一 GUTI是否相同, 如果否, 用 MA的第二 GUTI替换终端的第一 GUTI 中的 MA的第一 GUTI , 以将终端的第一 GUTI变成终端的第二 GUTI。
其中, 步骤 D具体包括:
MA在广播消息中广播自己的第二 GUTI ,终端接收到广播消息,终端根据 步骤 B中 M3中的用于指示终端的第一临时标识是扩展标识的信息(比如指示终 端的第一 GUTI是否是扩展的 GUTI的信元或者第一 GUTI中的某一比特位), 确 认终端的第一临时标识是扩展标识, 根据 MA的第一临时标识的起始比特位指 示信息, 和 /或终端的 Index的起始比特位指示信息, 确定 MA的第一临时标识 在终端的第一临时标识中的起始比特位, 判断 MA的第二 GUTI与 MA的第一 GUTI是否相同 , 如果否, 用 MA的第二 GUTI替换终端的第一 GUTI中的 MA的 第一 GUTI, 以将终端的第一 GUTI变成终端的第二 GUTI。 其中, 终端根据步 骤 B中 M3中的用于指示终端的第一临时标识是扩展标识的信息(比如指示终端 的第一 GUTI是否是扩展的 GUTI的信元或者第一 GUTI中的某一比特位), 确认 终端的第一临时标识是扩展标识,可以在终端接收到 MA的第二 GUTI之前, 步 骤 B中 M3之后执行, 不影响本发明的实现。
本发明实施例二在终端与 MA绑定过程中, 第一移动性管理实体( MME1 ) 利用终端的 Index和 MA的第一 GUTI组成终端的第一 GUTI并发送给终端, 使终
端的第一 GUTI与 MA关联; 进一步, 在 MA和终端发生切换时, 第二移动性管 理实体自动将终端的 Index和 MA的第二 GUTI构成终端的第二 GUTI保存在终 端上下文中; 终端在获取到 MA的第二 GUTI后,会利用 MA的第二 GUTI和自身 索引 Index (终端的第一 GUTI中的 Index )构成自己的第二 GUTI, 而不再需要 网络侧分配临时标识, 减轻了网络的负担。
图 4和图 5示出了 MA与终端绑定后, 网络侧寻呼终端的信令流程图,其中, 网络侧寻呼终端的移动性管理实体可以是上述的 MME 1或者 MME2 , 网络侧寻 呼终端有如下二种方式:
参阅图 4, 第一种方式包括:
Pl、 MME向接入网管理网元发送携带终端的 GUTI的寻呼消息。
其中, 终端的 GUTI包括: MA的 GUTI和终端的 Index。
P2、 接入网管理网元广播寻呼消息。
P3、 终端根据寻呼消息中携带的终端的 GUTI, 确认网络侧在寻呼自己, 向 MME返回寻呼响应消息。
参阅图 5, 第二种方式包括:
VI、 MME确定需要寻呼的终端后, >据终端的 GUTI, 确定与终端绑定的 MA, 向该 MA^送寻呼消息, 该寻呼消息中携带终端的 Index。
其中, 该寻呼消息中也可以直接携带终端的 GUTI, 不影响本发明的实现。 V2、 MA广播携带终端的 Index的寻呼消息。
V3、 终端根据寻呼消息中携带的终端的 Index, 确认网络侧在寻呼自己, 向 MME返回寻呼响应消息。
以上两种寻呼方式, 可以利用终端的 GUTI (包括 MA的 GUTI和终端的 Index )或者终端的 Index实现网络侧寻呼终端的目的。
上述各实施例中以 MME作为移动性管理实体进行描述的, 本发明实施例 所提供的技术方案中的移动性管理实体也可以是其他领域中的移动性管理装 置, 比如 SGSN ( Serving GPRS Support Node, 服务 GPRS支持节点), 相应的, 分组临时移动用户身份标识), MA的临时标识为 MA的 P-TMSI, 同样可以实现 本发明的目的。
