Users, thus avoiding a large number of users repeatedly querying whether there is a network storm caused by the update, and improving the operating efficiency of the network.
当需要发送业务的时候, 业务平台需要通过终端的标识来联系终端, 通常在终端向业务平台注册的时候将自己的标识登记在业务平台中, 例如 在 IP网络中通常釆用终端的 IP地址作为标识, 而在移动通讯网络中, 釆 用专有的 IMSI作为终端的标识。  When the service needs to be sent, the service platform needs to contact the terminal through the identifier of the terminal. Usually, when the terminal registers with the service platform, the identity is registered in the service platform. For example, the IP address of the terminal is usually used in the IP network. Identification, and in the mobile communication network, the proprietary IMSI is used as the identity of the terminal.
在固定接入网络中, 由于终端与网络始终维持着物理连接, 因此当需 要发送业务时, 业务平台可以随时联系终端, 例如以终端登记的 IP地址 作为目的地址向终端发送 IP数据包, 根据 IP网络本身的路由机制可以到 达终端。 In a fixed access network, since the terminal and the network always maintain a physical connection, When the service is to be sent, the service platform can contact the terminal at any time. For example, the IP address registered by the terminal is used as the destination address to send IP data packets to the terminal, and the terminal can be reached according to the routing mechanism of the IP network itself.
而在移动通信网络中, 为了节省无线资源, 以及减少终端耗电, 在终 端一段时间 (如几到几十秒) 内未与网络进行信令交互及用户面数据传输 时, 网络可以译放在网络与终端之间的信令连接和用户面无线承载, 此时 称终端处于空闲状态(Idle State )。 发送业务在移动通信网络侧的表现为 向终端发送下行数据的过程, 即由网关设备通过其他网络侧设备向终端发 送数据的过程。 在现有技术中, 向终端发送下行数据时, 首先网络需要联 系处于空闲状态的终端, 那么需要首先对终端进行寻呼, 收到寻呼消息的 终端会恢复与网络的信令连接和用户面承载, 此时称终端处于连接态 In the mobile communication network, in order to save radio resources and reduce power consumption of the terminal, when the terminal does not perform signaling interaction with the network and user plane data transmission for a period of time (such as several to several tens of seconds), the network can be placed on the network. The signaling connection between the network and the terminal and the radio bearer on the user plane, at this time, the terminal is said to be in an idle state (Idle State). The sending service on the mobile communication network side is a process of transmitting downlink data to the terminal, that is, a process in which the gateway device sends data to the terminal through other network side devices. In the prior art, when sending downlink data to a terminal, first, the network needs to contact the terminal in an idle state, and then the terminal needs to be paged first, and the terminal that receives the paging message restores the signaling connection with the network and the user plane. Bearer, the terminal is said to be connected
( Connected State ) , 此时网络再将信令或緩存的业务数据发送给终端。 业务结束后, 如果一段时间没有信令交互或用户面数据传输, 网络会再次 将终端转至空闲状态。 (Connected State), at which point the network sends signaling or cached service data to the terminal. After the service ends, if there is no signaling interaction or user plane data transmission for a period of time, the network will again turn the terminal to idle state.
以手机报这种典型业务为例, 一些热门的手机报产品可能在一个城市 有数百万订阅用户, 要在尽可能短的时间内 (例如 30分钟) , 将最新的 手机报发送给所有订阅用户的终端, 意味着移动通信网络需要在短时间内 寻呼大量用户, 导致网络拥塞。  Take the mobile phone as a typical business. For example, some popular mobile phone products may have millions of subscribers in a city. To send the latest mobile phone news to all subscriptions in the shortest possible time (for example, 30 minutes). The user's terminal means that the mobile communication network needs to page a large number of users in a short time, resulting in network congestion.
触发寻呼的业务通知消息可以按照时延忍耐度分为两类, 一类是需要 尽快送达终端的, 例如一个语音呼叫通知, 一条点对点短信, 或者新的电 子邮件, 这类业务通知称为即时发送通知消息; 另一类业务通知如果延迟 一段时间送达终端, 用户也可以忍受, 例如手机报, 社交门户或微型博客 更新通知等, 这类业务通知称为可延迟发送通知消息。 两类业务的界限不 是严格区分的, 例如, 在某些情况下, 可能短信、 电子邮件也可以忍受短 时间的延迟再送达终端; 而社交门户或微型博客的某些类型的通知则可能 需要尽快送达终端。 而现有技术中, 移动通信网络并不区分即时发送通知消息和可延迟发 送通知消息在用户时延忍耐度上的区别, 业务平台发出业务通知消息, 消 息到达移动通信网络后, 如果终端处于空闲状态, 网络总是马上寻呼终端 并将消息送达终端, 导致在进行手机报, 社交网站、 微型博客信息更新等 大量发送业务时网络寻呼负荷增高。 发明内容 The service notification messages that trigger paging can be classified into two types according to the delay tolerance. One type needs to be delivered to the terminal as soon as possible, such as a voice call notification, a point-to-point short message, or a new email. The notification message is sent immediately; another type of service notification can be tolerated if the delay is delivered to the terminal for a period of time, such as a mobile phone report, a social portal or a microblog update notification, etc., such a service notification is called a delayed notification message. The boundaries between the two types of services are not strictly differentiated. For example, in some cases, text messages and emails may be tolerated for a short delay and then delivered to the terminal; while certain types of notifications for social portals or microblogs may need to be as soon as possible. Delivery terminal. In the prior art, the mobile communication network does not distinguish the difference between the instant transmission notification message and the delayable transmission notification message in the user delay tolerance. The service platform sends a service notification message, and if the message arrives in the mobile communication network, if the terminal is idle In the state, the network always pages the terminal immediately and delivers the message to the terminal, resulting in an increase in the network paging load when a large number of services such as mobile newspapers, social networking sites, and micro-blog information updates are performed.

为使本发明实施例的目的、 技术方案和优点更加清楚, 下面将结合本 发明实施例中的附图, 对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、 完整地描 述,显然, 所描述的实施例是本发明一部分实施例, 而不是全部的实施例。 基于本发明中的实施例, 本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提 下所获得的所有其他实施例, 都属于本发明保护的范围。  The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are clearly and completely described in the following with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. It is a partial embodiment of the invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts are within the scope of the present invention.
图 1为本发明提供的业务信息发送方法第一实施例的流程图, 如图 1 所示, 该方法包括: 5101、 接收来自业务平台的业务通知消息; FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a first embodiment of a method for sending service information according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the method includes: 5101. Receive a service notification message from a service platform.
这里, 业务平台是向移动通信网络发送应用业务通知消息的逻辑实 体, 可以指业务服务器, 也可以指发送网关, 或者两者的集合。 即在业务 服务器直接连接移动通信网络的方式时, 指业务服务器, 当业务服务器通 过发送网关连接移动通信网络的方式时, 指发送网关, 也可以是两者的集 合。  Here, the service platform is a logical entity that sends an application service notification message to the mobile communication network, and may be a service server, a transmission gateway, or a collection of the two. That is, when the service server directly connects to the mobile communication network, it refers to the service server. When the service server connects to the mobile communication network through the transmission gateway, it refers to the transmission gateway, or a collection of the two.
5102、 如果终端处于空闲态, 则待终端转到连接态后, 通知所述终端获 取业务信息或者通知所述业务平台向所述终端发送业务信息。  5102. If the terminal is in an idle state, after the terminal is in the connected state, notify the terminal to obtain service information or notify the service platform to send service information to the terminal.
其中, 该类业务通知消息属于可延迟业务通知消息, 业务平台或者网络 设备可以设置业务通知消息的最大延迟时间, 当有可延迟业务通知消息需发 送到终端时, 如果终端处于空闲态时, 网络并不立即发起发送业务通知消息 的过程, 而是可以在管理终端连接状态的网络节点上緩存该业务通知消息或 者标记该业务通知消息, 表示有业务信息需发送到终端, 当终端由其它事件 触发(例如终端要主动发送数据, 或者有发给终端的其它业务通知触发寻呼 终端等业务流程) 而使其状态由空闲态转换到连接态时, 网络再将所述緩存 或标记的可延迟业务通知发送到终端, 发送过程可以是通过已建立起的信令 连接或者用户面承载实现。  The service notification message belongs to the delayable service notification message, and the service platform or the network device can set the maximum delay time of the service notification message. When the delayable service notification message needs to be sent to the terminal, if the terminal is in the idle state, the network The process of sending the service notification message is not immediately initiated, but the service notification message may be cached or marked on the network node that manages the terminal connection status, indicating that the service information needs to be sent to the terminal, and the terminal is triggered by other events. (For example, if the terminal wants to send data actively, or another service notification sent to the terminal triggers a service process such as a paging terminal), and the state changes from the idle state to the connected state, the network then delays the cached or marked service. The notification is sent to the terminal, and the sending process may be implemented through an established signaling connection or a user plane bearer.
如果所述业务通知消息达到所述最大延迟时间, 所述终端仍然处于空闲 态, 则向所述终端发起寻呼过程, 使所述终端转为连接态以接收业务通知。  And if the service notification message reaches the maximum delay time, the terminal is still in an idle state, and a paging process is initiated to the terminal, so that the terminal is switched to a connected state to receive a service notification.
终端转为连接态后, 移动性管理网元向终端发送业务通知。 业务通知中 包含部分或全部更新的业务信息。 将业务通知消息发送给终端可以釆用将从 业务平台收到的业务通知消息转发给终端 (移动性管理网元可能修改消息中 部分内容, 或者增加部分字段) , 或者釆用新的消息类型 (例如业务推送通 知, Service Pushing Notification, 本发明在此不作限制) , 也可以在现有消 息 (例如跟踪区更新接受消息) 中增加字段等方式, 本发明不作限制。  After the terminal is switched to the connected state, the mobility management network element sends a service notification to the terminal. Business notifications contain some or all of the updated business information. Sending the service notification message to the terminal may forward the service notification message received from the service platform to the terminal (the mobility management network element may modify part of the message, or add some fields), or use a new message type ( For example, the service push notification, the present invention is not limited herein, and the field may be added to an existing message (for example, a tracking area update accept message), and the present invention is not limited.
本发明实施例中, 移动性管理网元向终端发送到业务通知消息或新的类 型的消息可以只包含有新的业务信息的指示, 也可以包含要更新的业务信息 本身、 片段或业务信息在业务平台上的相关索引等, 视更新的业务信息的属 性, 如信息长短、 存储方式、 安全性要求等而定, 譬如业务信息艮短的情况 下, 业务通知消息直接携带具体业务信息。 In the embodiment of the present invention, the mobility management network element sends a service notification message or a new class to the terminal. The type of message may only contain an indication of new service information, or may include the service information itself to be updated, the segment or the relevant index of the service information on the service platform, etc., depending on the attributes of the updated service information, such as the length of the information, storage Depending on the mode, security requirements, etc., for example, if the service information is short, the service notification message directly carries the specific service information.
需要指出的是, 本发明实施例中, 由移动通信网络中负责寻呼管理的移 动性管理网元管理业务通知消息发送的时机。 移动性管理网元可以是 EPS网 络中的 MME, GPRS/UMTS网络中的 SGSN , WiMax网络中的 ASN-GW, 等 等。 可以将业务平台与移动性管理网元直接连接, 将业务通知消息发送给移 动性管理网元。  It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the mobility management network element responsible for paging management in the mobile communication network manages the timing of sending the service notification message. The mobility management network element may be an MME in an EPS network, an SGSN in a GPRS/UMTS network, an ASN-GW in a WiMax network, and the like. The service platform can be directly connected to the mobility management network element, and the service notification message is sent to the mobility management network element.
在实际网络中, 通常存在多个具体的第三方业务, 将多个业务服务器直 接与移动性管理网元连接, 在安全、 计费、 性能等方面存在不足或隐患, 因 此在本发明实施中, 可以引入一个新的逻辑网元, 该逻辑网元的名称不限制, 为了方便, 称为通用信息发送网关(简称发送网关)。 第三方业务的业务服务 器与发送网关相连接, 当第三方应用有新的信息需要发送给终端时, 首先将 业务通知消息发送给发送网关, 发送网关与移动性管理网元连接, 将通知信 息发送给移动性管理网元。 发送网关还可以对业务服务器的业务通知进行性 能统计、 计费等操作。 发送网关是一个逻辑实体, 可以和业务服务器、 HSS 等网元合设, 合设时, 发送网关可以看作是网元内的发送消息处理模块。  In an actual network, a plurality of specific third-party services are usually connected, and multiple service servers are directly connected to the mobility management network element, and there are insufficient or hidden risks in security, charging, performance, and the like. Therefore, in the implementation of the present invention, A new logical network element can be introduced. The name of the logical network element is not limited. For convenience, it is called a general information sending gateway (referred to as a sending gateway). The service server of the third-party service is connected to the sending gateway. When the third-party application has new information to be sent to the terminal, the service notification message is first sent to the sending gateway, and the sending gateway connects with the mobility management network element to send the notification information. Give the mobility management network element. The sending gateway can also perform performance statistics, accounting, and other operations on the service notifications of the service server. The sending gateway is a logical entity that can be combined with a network element such as a service server or an HSS. When it is set up, the sending gateway can be regarded as a sending message processing module in the network element.
本实施例提供的方法, 为更新的业务数据提供了一种非实时的发送方 案,緩存业务通知消息并等待终端转换为连接态时再将业务通知发送给终端, 避免了发送的业务通知消息总是触发寻呼终端的过程, 降低了通信网络中的 信令负荷。  The method provided in this embodiment provides a non-real-time transmission scheme for the updated service data, caches the service notification message, and waits for the terminal to convert to the connected state, and then sends the service notification to the terminal, thereby avoiding the total service notification message sent. It is a process of triggering a paging terminal, which reduces the signaling load in the communication network.
图 2为本发明提供业务通知消息发送方法第二实施例的流程图, 终端 已经附着在网络上, 并在业务平台完成注册。 如图 2所示, 该方法包括: S201、 业务平台有业务数据需要发送给终端时, 业务平台发送业务通 知消息给移动性管理网元; 其中, 业务平台寻址到终端注册的移动性管理网元主要有两种方法:2 is a flowchart of a second embodiment of a method for sending a service notification message according to the present invention. The terminal is attached to the network and is registered on the service platform. As shown in FIG. 2, the method includes: S201: When a service platform needs to send service data to a terminal, the service platform sends a service notification message to the mobility management network element. Among them, there are two main methods for the service platform to address the mobile management network element registered by the terminal:
1 ) 终端注册的移动性管理网元直接在业务平台中注册, 业务平台在 相应的终端上下文中保存当前终端注册的移动性管理网元的地址; 1) The mobility management network element registered by the terminal is directly registered in the service platform, and the service platform saves the address of the mobility management network element registered by the current terminal in the corresponding terminal context;
2 ) 业务平台通过保存的终端的标识, 例如 IMSI , MSISDN向归属用 户服务器数据库 (HSS ) 查询终端当前注册的移动性管理网元。  2) The service platform queries the home subscriber database (HSS) for the mobility management network element currently registered by the terminal through the identifier of the saved terminal, such as IMSI and MSISDN.
由于终端注册的移动性管理网元信息和 IMSI、 MSISDN等标识信息一 定程度上属于网络机密信息, 因此此两种方式通常应用于设置了通用信息 发送网关, 即业务服务器通过通用信息发送网关与移动性管理网元连接的 情况。  Since the mobility management network element information registered by the terminal and the identification information such as IMSI and MSISDN belong to the network confidential information to some extent, the two methods are generally applied to setting a general information sending gateway, that is, the service server sends the gateway and the mobile through the general information. Sex management network element connection situation.
S202、 移动性管理网元收到该通知信息后, 判断终端当前状态, 如果 终端当前处于连接状态, 则直接将业务通知消息发送给终端; 如果终端当 前处于空闲状态, 则转到 S203;  S202, after receiving the notification information, the mobility management network element determines the current state of the terminal, and if the terminal is currently in the connected state, directly sends the service notification message to the terminal; if the terminal is currently in the idle state, then the process proceeds to S203;
具体地, 移动性管理网元可以通过与终端的控制通道将业务通知消息 发送给终端, 终端收到通知消息根据需要可以与业务平台联系获取进一步 业务信息。 如果网络与终端的用户面通道可用, 也可以选择通过与终端的 用户面通道将业务通知消息发送给终端。  Specifically, the mobility management network element may send a service notification message to the terminal by using a control channel with the terminal, and the terminal may receive the notification message to contact the service platform to obtain further service information. If the user plane channel of the network and the terminal is available, the service notification message may also be sent to the terminal through the user plane channel of the terminal.
S203、 移动性管理网元进一步判断业务通知消息类型, 如果是可延迟 业务通知消息, 移动性管理网元在建立的终端上下文中緩存该业务通知消 息, 等待终端转换为连接态后, 通知所述终端获取业务信息或者通知所述 业务平台向所述终端发送业务信息。  S203. The mobility management network element further determines a service notification message type. If the service notification message is delayed, the mobility management network element caches the service notification message in the established terminal context, and waits for the terminal to switch to the connected state, and then notifies the The terminal acquires service information or notifies the service platform to send service information to the terminal.
移动性管理网元可以根据来自业务平台的业务通知消息中包含的参 数(消息类型, 消息中特定字段指示等) , 或者本身配置的规则, 或者两 者的综合并可能参考其他信息, 判断业务通知消息是即时发送类通知消 息, 还是可延迟发送类通知消息。 移动性管理网元或者业务平台可以分别 记录可延迟通知消息与非可延迟通知消息的数量, 对于可延迟通知消息也 可以根据延迟的时间段分别记录消息数量, 上述分类业务通知数量统计上 报到计费中心用于按照业务通知类型和延迟时间段长短分别进行计费。 业务平台发送移动性管理网元的业务通知消息中, 可以只包含有业务 信息属性, 比如发送最大延迟时间、 业务信息在业务平台中的索引等; 也 可以包含业务信息的详细内容或者片段。 其中, 发送最大延迟时间表示该 业务信息可以延时向终端发送的可最大忍耐时间。 延迟时间的表示方式可 以是绝对时间, 例如 "2010年 12月 10日 18:00:00", 也可以是相对时间, 例如 "30分钟以后" ; 延迟时间 0秒 (或者不携带延迟时间字段) 可以看 做一个特例, 即业务通知消息需要马上送达终端, 作为即时发送类业务处 理。 The mobility management network element may determine the service notification according to parameters (message type, specific field indication in the message, etc.) included in the service notification message from the service platform, or a rule configured by itself, or a combination of both, and may refer to other information. Whether the message is an instant notification message or a delayed notification message. The mobility management network element or the service platform may separately record the number of delayable notification messages and non-delayable notification messages, and may also record the number of messages according to the delayed time period for the delayable notification message, and the number of the classified service notifications is statistically calculated. The reporting fee center is used for charging according to the type of service notification and the length of the delay period. The service notification message sent by the service platform to the mobility management network element may include only the service information attribute, such as the maximum delay time, the index of the service information in the service platform, and the like, or may include the detailed content or fragment of the service information. The sending maximum delay time indicates that the service information can delay the maximum tolerable time sent to the terminal. The delay time can be expressed in absolute time, such as "18:00:00 on December 10, 2010", or relative time, such as "30 minutes later"; delay time 0 seconds (or no delay time field) It can be seen as a special case, that is, the service notification message needs to be immediately delivered to the terminal as an instant delivery service.
需要指出的是, 如果业务通知消息是即时发送类通知, 则立即寻呼终 端, 按现有流程进行后续处理。  It should be noted that if the service notification message is an instant delivery type notification, the terminal is immediately paged, and subsequent processing is performed according to the existing process.
具体地, 当为可延迟发送通知消息时, 业务平台还可以在业务通知消 息中指定最大延迟时间, 或者移动性管理网元结合本身策略确定延迟时 间, 该延迟时间的含义是如果在该时间达到之前, 终端仍没有由于其它原 因 (例如终端要主动发送数据, 或者有发给终端的其它发送业务触发寻呼 终端等业务过程)转为连接态, 则移动性管理网元需要主动寻呼终端将所 述可延迟业务通知送达终端。  Specifically, when the notification message is delayed, the service platform may further specify a maximum delay time in the service notification message, or the mobility management network element determines the delay time according to the policy itself, and the meaning of the delay time is if the time is reached at the time. Previously, the terminal still did not switch to the connected state due to other reasons (for example, the terminal should actively send data, or other service services sent to the terminal trigger the paging terminal, etc.), then the mobility management network element needs to actively paging the terminal. The delayable service notification delivery terminal.
对于可延迟发送通知消息, 在本发明实施例中, 移动性管理网元不是 立即寻呼终端, 而是可以在移动性管理网元上设置业务通知标记, 该标记 表示有业务信息需要发送给终端, 移动性管理网元还可以保存从业务通知 消息中获得的其它与业务相关联的信息, 例如业务信息部分或全部内容, 业务信息在业务平台上的索引等。 此外, 此时移动性管理网元还可以向业 务平台发送确认消息告诉业务平台已接收到业务发送通知消息, 但处于等 待终端转为连接态的状态。  In the embodiment of the present invention, the mobility management network element is not an immediate paging terminal, but may set a service notification flag on the mobility management network element, where the identifier indicates that the service information needs to be sent to the terminal. The mobility management network element may also store other service-related information obtained from the service notification message, such as part or all of the service information, an index of the service information on the service platform, and the like. In addition, the mobility management network element may also send an acknowledgement message to the service platform to notify the service platform that the service delivery notification message has been received, but is in a state in which the terminal is switched to the connected state.
终端转为连接态的原因可以包括: 终端要主动发送数据, 或者有发给 终端的其它业务通知触发寻呼终端; 或者緩存的当前业务通知最大延迟时 间已到期 (或即将到期)移动性管理网元主动寻呼终端。 The reason why the terminal is switched to the connected state may include: the terminal needs to actively send data, or another service notification sent to the terminal triggers the paging terminal; or the cached current service notification has a maximum delay The mobility management network element has expired (or is about to expire) to actively page the terminal.
其中, 移动性管理网元将业务通知消息发送给终端可以有两种方式: The mobility management network element may send the service notification message to the terminal in two ways:
1 ) 终端转为连接态后, 移动性管理网元向终端发送业务通知。 业务 通知中包含部分或全部更新的业务信息。 将业务通知消息发送给终端可以 釆用新的消息, 也可以在现有消息 (例如跟踪区更新接受消息) 中增加字 段等方式, 或者釆用新的消息类型(例如业务推送通知, Service Pushing Notification ) , 本发明不作限制。 1) After the terminal is switched to the connected state, the mobility management network element sends a service notification to the terminal. Business notifications contain some or all of the updated business information. Sending a service notification message to the terminal can use a new message, or add a field to an existing message (such as a tracking area update accept message), or use a new message type (such as a service push notification, Service Pushing Notification) The invention is not limited.
如果需要, 终端在接收到通知后可以主动与业务平台联系获取进一步 的信息。 业务平台的地址可以在终端建立数据连接时提前获得, 也可以移 动性管理网元在推送通知消息中携带业务平台的地址。 业务平台的地址可 以是 IP地址, 或者域名等形式, 终端访问业务平台, 检索并获取相关的 业务信息。  If necessary, the terminal can actively contact the service platform to obtain further information after receiving the notification. The address of the service platform may be obtained in advance when the terminal establishes a data connection, or the mobility management network element may carry the address of the service platform in the push notification message. The address of the service platform may be an IP address or a domain name, and the terminal accesses the service platform to retrieve and obtain related business information.
2 ) 终端转为连接态后, 移动性管理网元通知业务平台, 业务平台向 终端发送业务通知消息, 将业务信息发送给终端。 如果需要, 终端在接收 到业务平台的业务通知消息后也可以主动与业务平台联系获取详细的信 息内容, 由于此时终端仍处于连接态, 因此无需寻呼终端。  2) After the terminal is switched to the connected state, the mobility management network element notifies the service platform, and the service platform sends a service notification message to the terminal, and sends the service information to the terminal. If necessary, the terminal can actively contact the service platform to obtain detailed information after receiving the service notification message of the service platform. Since the terminal is still in the connected state at this time, the paging terminal is not needed.
上面实施例中, 终端需附着在网络中并建立数据通道(PDN  In the above embodiment, the terminal needs to be attached to the network and establish a data channel (PDN).
Connection ) , 在附着过程或业务通道建立过程中, 终端注册到业务平台 中, 比如业务平台保存终端的 IMSI、 MSISDN或者 IP地址等信息。 如果 业务平台与移动性管理网元直接连接, 则移动性管理网元将自己的地址信 息注册到业务平台中。 Connection), in the process of establishing the attach process or the service channel, the terminal registers with the service platform, for example, the service platform saves information such as the IMSI, MSISDN or IP address of the terminal. If the service platform is directly connected to the mobility management network element, the mobility management network element registers its own address information into the service platform.
业务平台还可以向终端的 IP地址发送消息数据包将业务通知消息发 送给移动性管理网元。  The service platform may also send a message data packet to the IP address of the terminal to send a service notification message to the mobility management network element.
在 EPS架构下, 如果业务平台通过用户面承载通知有业务信息需发 送, 具体可以参考如下步骤:  In the EPS architecture, if the service platform needs to send service information through the user plane bearer notification, you can refer to the following steps:
业务平台向终端 IP发送包含业务通知消息的数据包; 该数据包是通过建立的用户面承载发送。 该数据包可以包括但不限于 发送延迟时间、 业务信息等; The service platform sends a data packet including a service notification message to the terminal IP; The packet is sent over the established user plane bearer. The data packet may include, but is not limited to, a transmission delay time, service information, and the like;
服务网关设备收到数据包后, 如果当前终端处于空闲态(即服务网关 上保存的下行隧道信息无效) , 那么服务网关緩存并解析该数据包, 向移 动性管理网元发送下行数据通知消息, 该消息中可包括但不限于发送延迟 时间、 应用信息等。 特别说明的是: 如果在 UMTS架构中, 移动性管理网 同时具有用户面与控制面的功能, 比如网关设备在收到业务平台的用户面 数据包后, 将该数据包发送给移动性管理网元 (SGSN), SGSN可以直接 解析该用户面数据包, 如果终端当前处于空闲态, 并且消息数据包中包含 有应用信息、 发送延迟时间, 那么 SGSN可以緩存该消息, 并且按照延迟 时间寻呼终端。  After the service gateway device receives the data packet, if the current terminal is in an idle state (that is, the downlink tunnel information saved on the serving gateway is invalid), the serving gateway buffers and parses the data packet, and sends a downlink data notification message to the mobility management network element. The message may include, but is not limited to, a transmission delay time, application information, and the like. Specifically, if in the UMTS architecture, the mobility management network has both the user plane and the control plane function, for example, after receiving the user plane data packet of the service platform, the gateway device sends the data packet to the mobility management network. Element (SGSN), the SGSN can directly parse the user plane data packet. If the terminal is currently in an idle state, and the message data packet contains application information and transmission delay time, the SGSN can buffer the message and page the terminal according to the delay time. .
本实施例提供的方法, 为更新的业务数据提供了一种非实时的发送方 案,緩存业务通知消息并等待终端转换为连接态时再将业务通知发送给终端, 避免了发送的业务通知消息总是触发寻呼终端的过程, 降低了通信网络中的 信令负荷。  The method provided in this embodiment provides a non-real-time transmission scheme for the updated service data, caches the service notification message, and waits for the terminal to convert to the connected state, and then sends the service notification to the terminal, thereby avoiding the total service notification message sent. It is a process of triggering a paging terminal, which reduces the signaling load in the communication network.
