Description

一种单一无线语音呼叫连续性实现方法及单一无线语音呼叫
连续性系统 技术领域 本发明涉及通信领域, 尤其涉及一种单待业务连续性实现方法及单待业 务连续性系统。
背景技术
IP多媒体子系统( IP Multimedia Core Network Subsystem, 简称 IMS )是 由第三代合作伙伴计划( 3rd Generation Partnership Project, 简称 3GPP )提出 的一种基于 IP的网络架构, 构建了一个开放而灵活的业务环境, 支持多媒体 应用, 能够为用户提供丰富的多媒体业务。 在 IMS业务体系中 ,控制层和业务层是分离的,控制层不提供具体业务, 只向业务层提供必要的触发、 路由、 计费等功能。 控制层中业务触发和控制功能是呼叫会话控制功能( Call Session Control Function, 简称 CSCF )完成的。 呼叫会话控制功能分为: 代理呼叫会话控制 功能 ( Proxy-CSCF , 简称 P-CSCF ) 、 查询呼叫会话控制功能 ( Interrogating-CSCF , 简称 I-CSCF ) 和服务呼叫会话控制功能 ( Serving-CSCF, 简称 S-CSCF )三种类型, 其中负主要责任的是 S-CSCF, I-CSCF是可选的。 业务层是由一系列应用服务器(Application Server, 简称 AS )组成, 能 提供具体业务服务, AS可以是独立的实体, 也可以存在于 S-CSCF中。 控制层(S-CSCF )根据用户的签约信息控制业务触发, 调用 AS上的业 务, 实现业务功能。 AS和 S-CSCF可以统称为服务设备(Server Equipment, 简称 SE ) 。 会话中的端到端设备称为用户设备 ( User Equipment, 简称 UE ) , 负责 与使用者的交互, 有的 UE具有多种接入网络的方式, 包括通过 3GPP的包 交换(Packet Switch, 简称 PS )域接入网络, 通过其他非 3GPP的 PS域接入 网络, 甚至可以通过电路交换(Circuit Switch, 简称 CS )域接入网络等。 如果 CS网络配置了增强移动交换中心(enhanced Mobile Switch Center, 简称 eMSC ) , 由 eMSC提供 SIP ( Session Initial Protocol, 初始会话协议) 接口来与 IMS网络交互,则 IMS网络与 CS网络的交互可以通过 eMSC来实 现。 对于具有多种接入方式的 UE而言, 如果该 UE某时刻只能使用一种接 入方式, 在一种接入方式下正在执行某项业务, 比如通话, 则当 UE移动到 其他地方而需要改变其使用的接入方式时, UE和网络能提供某种方式使 UE 正在执行的业务不被中断, 这样的能力我们称之为单待终端业务连续性, 简 称单待业务连续性( Single Radio Voice Call Continuity, 简称 SRVCC ) 。 图 1是单待业务连续性示意图,描述了单待终端 UE-1与 IMS终端 UE-2 建立会话的信令路径和媒体路径, 以及发生单待终端业务连续性后, UE-1 与 UE-2的信令路径和媒体路径,为简化图示和描述,将 S-CSCF和业务连续 性 AS ( SC AS ) 画成一个实体, 两者间使用基于 IMS标准的 SIP协议通讯。 单待业务连续性发生前, UE-1和 UE-2间建立了会话, 其信令路径描述 下:
A102: UE-1和 P-CSCF之间的信令路径, 通过 IMS的 SIP协议互相通 讯, 对于 SC AS而言, 这是访问端 (Access leg )路径;
A104: P-CSCF和 SC AS/S-CSCF之间的信令路径, 通过 IMS的 SIP协 议互相通讯, 对于 SC AS而言, 这也属于访问端 (Access leg )路径;
R101 : SC AS/S-CSCF和 UE-2之间的信令路径, 通过 IMS的 SIP协议 互相通讯, 对于 SC AS而言, 这是远端 (Remote leg )路径; 单待业务连续性发生后, UE-1和 UE-2间的信令路径和媒体路径都发生 了变化, 其中信令路径的变化描述如下: A112: UE-1和 eMSC之间的信令路径,通过 CS域的信令协议互相通讯, 对于 SC AS而言, 这是访问端 ( Access leg )路径;
A114: eMSC和 SC AS/S-CSCF之间的信令路径, 通过 IMS的 SIP协议 互相通讯, 对于 SC AS而言, 这也属于访问端 (Access leg )路径;
R101 : SC AS/S-CSCF和 UE-2之间的信令路径, 通过 IMS的 SIP协议 互相通讯, 对于 SC AS而言, 这是远端 (Remote leg )路径, 在单待业务连 续性发生后, 该远端路径没有变化。
图 2是现有的单待业务连续性架构图, 描述了参与实现单待业务连续性 的网络各相关部分或网元, 以及它们间的接口或连接关系, 描述如下: 相关网元描述:
UE: 具有单待业务连续性能力的用户终端设备; CS网络: 为用户提供传统 CS业务的网络;
PS网络控制网元: 为用户提供 PS业务的网络,其控制网元为 MME (移 动管理实体—— Mobility Management Entity )或 SGSN (服务 GPRS支持节 点 Serving GPRS Support Node ) ; eMSC: 处理 PS网络控制网元发送的切换请求, 执行会话的域间转移, 将 CS切换操作与域间转移操作关联起来等;
IMS网络: 为用户提供 IMS业务的网络。 相关接口描述:
S202: UE和 CS网络间的空中接口 (简称 CS空口) , 实现 UE和 CS 网络间的信息交互, 如标准的 Um接口; S204: UE和 PS网络控制网元间的空中接口 (简称 PS空口), 实现 UE 和 PS网络控制网元间的信息交互, 如标准的 Uu接口;
S206: CS网络与 eMSC间的接口 (可以称为 CS信令接口 ) , 根据连接 的具体网元的不同而不同, eMSC与基站子系统间的接口为标准的 Iu-CS接 口, eMSC与其他移动交换中心间的接口为标准的局间信令接口, 即 E接口 和 Nc接口;
S208: PS网络控制网元的控制网元与 eMSC间的信令接口(可以称为域 间切换信令接口) , 以提供域间切换支持, 该接口为标准的 SV接口;
S210: PS网络控制网元与英特网间的信令接口, 如标准的 SGi接口, 该 接口可以为 UE和英特网间的信息交互提供 IP数据承载,由于 IMS网络^^ 于英特网的, 因此可以算一种特殊的英特网; S212: eMSC与 IMS 网络间的信令路径, 可以是标准的 eMSC与 IMS 网络间的基于 IMS的 SIP协议的 12接口, 也可以是由 eMSC与媒体网关间 的标准 Nc接口及媒体网关与 IMS网络间的标准 Mg接口连接组成; 如果是 后者, 媒体网关会将 Nc接口上的消息翻译成 IMS的 SIP消息或反之; Nc接 口可基于 SIP协议(Nc-SIP ) , 也可基于 ISUP ( ISDN User Protocol, 综合业 务数字网络用户协议)协议( Nc-ISUP )。 虽然 Nc-SIP和 12接口一样都基于 SIP协议, 但协议只规定了消息的格式, 消息的内容是由应用决定的, 使用 12接口则表明 eMSC支持 IMS相关的应用, 使用 Nc-SIP接口则表明 eMSC 支持传统 CS相关的应用。
图 3是现有的单待业务连续性实现方法流程图,描述了 UE-1和 UE-2间 建立了 IMS会话, 从而建立起 IMS媒体连接路径, 该 IMS媒体连接路径由 UE-1和 PS网络控制网元间的媒体连接及 PS网络控制网元与 UE-2间的媒体 连接组成, UE-1发生单待业务连续性后, UE-1及网络实现让 UE-1使用 CS 域建立媒体连接, 并保持原会话连续的过程, 包括如下步骤: 步骤 301、 UE-1通过与 PS网络控制网元间的 S204接口向为其服务的
PS网络控制网元发送测量报告, 以上报小区信号强度测量信息; 步骤 302、 为 UE-1服务的 PS网络控制网元(原 PS网络控制网元)根 据测量报告中各小区信号强度信息判定附近的 CS网络更适合为 UE-1服务, 于是决定执行切换操作; 步骤 303、 原 PS 网络控制网元中的控制网元, 比如移动性管理实体
( Mobile Management Entity, 简称 MME )或 SGSN, 通过 PS网络控制网元 控制网元与 eMSC间的 S208接口,向 eMSC发送切换请求,比如发送 Handover request (切换请求)消息, 该消息中携带 UE-1的号码信息和 PS网络控制网 元通过归属用户服务器 ( Home Subscriber Server, 简称 HSS )获得的 SC AS 的用于标识业务连续性请求的号码信息; 步骤 304、 eMSC执行标准的 CS切换流程, 以准备目标 CS网络的媒体 链路资源; 步骤 305、完成 CS切换流程后, eMSC通过 S208接口向 PS网络控制网 元发送切换响应消息, 比如发送 Handover response (切换响应) 消息; 步骤 306、 PS网络控制网元收到切换响应消息后,通过 S204接口向 UE-1 发送切换命令消息, 通知 UE-1切换到 CS域; 步骤 307、 UE-1收到切换命令消息后, 将接入方式调整为通过 CS域接 入; 至此 UE-1和 eMSC间建立起了 CS媒体连接路径, 由 UE-1和 CS网络 间的 CS媒体连接及 CS网络和 eMSC间的 CS媒体连接组成。 以下步骤发生在步骤 303之后, 与步骤 304 ~ 307没有顺序关系。 步骤 308、eMSC收到 PS网络控制网元控制网元发送的切换请求消息后, 向 SC AS发送呼叫请求; 上述呼叫请求通过 S212 的信令路径(可以称为互联互通信令路径)发 送, 因此可以是 SIP的 INVITE (邀请 )消息, 也可以是 ISUP的 IAM (初始 地址消息)消息; 该呼叫请求中携带 UE-1的号码信息和 SC AS的号码信息, 其中 SC AS的号码信息作为被叫信息, UE-1的号码信息作为主叫信息。 步骤 309、 SC AS最终会收到由 CSCF转发来的 IMS的 SIP INVITE消息,
SC AS根据被叫信息可判定这是一次业务连续性请求, 再根据主叫信息寻找 到与此次呼叫关联的正在进行的呼叫; 步骤 310、 SC AS在关联的正在进行的呼叫的信令路径上, 通过 CSCF 向 UE-2发送 IMS的更新请求, 比如发送 UPDATE (更新 )或 relNVITE (重 邀请) 消息; 步骤 311、 UE-2收到更新请求后, 回应 IMS的同意更新消息, 比如发送 "200 OK" 消息; 步骤 312、 SC AS收到由 CSCF转发来的同意更新消息后, 通过 S212的 信令路径向 eMSC发送应答呼叫消息, 比如发送 "200 OK" 消息, eMSC最 终收到的可能是 SIP的 "200 OK"消息,也可能是 ISUP的 ANM (应答消息) 消息;
至此, eMSC和 UE-2间建立起新的媒体路径, eMSC将该新建的媒体路 径和 CS媒体路径接起来, 使 UE-1能继续和 UE-2进行通话。
由上可知, 由于设置在归属网络的 SC AS不进行媒体路径的锚定, 因此 釆用现有的单待业务连续性实现方法,在步骤 310 ~ 311中,需要对远端执行 更新操作, 而执行更新操作的 IMS信令的传递时延比较长, 这将导致 CS媒 体建立好后仍需等待较长时间新的媒体路径才能建立好, 从而使通话中断时 间过大。
