Description

一种触发信息中有效时间的处理方法和系统 技术领域
本发明涉及第三代合作伙伴计划 (3GPP, 3rd Generation Partnership Project ) 的机器对机器(M2M, Machine to Machine )技术, 尤其涉及一种 触发信息中有效时间的处理方法和系统。 背景技术
M2M指机器之间建立连接的所有技术和手段。 M2M理念在上个世纪 九十年代就出现了, 但是只停留在理论阶段。 2000年以后, 随着移动通信 技术的发展, 以移动通信技术实现机器设备的联网成为可能。 2002年左右 M2M业务就在市场上出现, 并在随后的几年迅速发展, 成为了众多通信设 备商和电信运营商的关注焦点。 目前全球的机器数量比人的数量要多很多, 因此可以预见到 M2M技术良好的市场前景。
对 M2M通信应用场景研究表明在移动网络上提供 M2M通信具有潜在 的市场前景。但 M2M业务对系统提出了很多新的要求, 为了增强移动网络 在这方面的竟争力, 有必要对现有的移动网络进行优化, 来更有效的支持 M2M通信。
现有的移动通信网络主要针对人与人的通信进行设计, 而对机器与机 器、人与机器的通信则优化不足。此外,运营商如何能够以低成本提供 M2M 通信服务, 也是 M2M通信部署成功的关键。
基于以上情况,有必要研究移动网络支持 M2M通信的解决方案,解决 方案要最大限度重用现有网络,降低大量 M2M通信对网络造成的影响以及 运营维护的复杂度。
目前电信市场竟争日趋激烈, 资费不断下降, 运营商利润空间不断减 小, 以人为基础的通信市场正在趋于饱和, M2M对运营商来说是全新的发 展机遇。
为了有效地利用移动网络资源, 第三代合作伙伴计划 (3GPP , 3rd Generation Partnership Project )提出了机器类型通信 ( MTC, Machine Type Communication ), 即 M2M、 机器^人( Machine to Man )进行通讯的业务, 其业务范围远远超出了以往人对人 ( H2H, Human to Human )之间的通讯, MTC在接入控制、 计费、 安全性、 服务质量(QoS )、 业务模式等方面与现 在的 H2H通讯模式有很大的区别。
MTC设备触发( Device Trigger ) (以下简称触发 )是对 MTC系统的基 本要求之一, 该要求所关注的问题是: 为了控制 MTC设备的通信, 可以采 用由 MTC服务器(Server )发起轮询 (poll ) 的方式进行通信, 对于 MTC 设备发起的通信, 有时也需要 MTC服务器从 MTC设备查询数据。 如果 MTC服务器查询失败或者 MTC设备的 IP地址不可用, 则 MTC服务器可 以使用触发来与 MTC设备建立通信。 如果网络不能触发 MTC设备, 则网 络向 MTC服务器报告触发失败, 触发在 3GPP中通过控制面信令实现。
短信服务(SMS )是为了通过业务中心 (SC, Service Centre )在短信 实体(SME, Short Message Entity )和用户设备之间发送信息。 SMS包括 移动主叫(MO, Mobile Originated )和移动被叫(MT, Mobile Terminating ) 业务, 即包括用户设备发送或者接收信息。 短信发送的网络架构如图 1 所 示,在 3GPP或 GSM网络外部包括 SME和短信服务-业务中心( SMS-SC ), 在 3GPP或 GSM网络内部包括短消息 -网关移动交换中心 ( SMS GMSC ) 或短信息 -互联移动交换中心 (SMS IWMSC )、 SMS路由 (Router )、 移动 交换中心 (MSC )或拜访位置寄存器(VLR )或服务通用分组无线服务业 务( GPRS, General Packet Radio Service )支持节点( SGSN;)、移动台( MS, Mobile Station )。 为了实现触发请求的有效传输, 已提出的方案包括: 通过短信 SMS发 送触发, 或者通过控制面信令发送触发。 对于通过控制面信令发送触发的 方式, MTC服务器发送包含触发信息的控制面信令到网络节点, 网络节点 将控制面信令中的触发信息解析处理,然后发送触发信息到用户设备。3GPP 中的采用 SMS发送 MTC触发的网络架构如图 2所示: MTC设备通过空中 接口连接 3GPP承载服务或 SMS或 IP多媒体系统(IMS, IP Multimedia Subsystem ); MTC 服务器通过 MTCsp 接口连接到 MTC-IWF , 并通过 MTCsms接口连接到 SMS-SC、 IP短消息网关( IP-SM-GW ); MTC服务器 通过 API接口连接用户设备。
目前 3GPP中针对触发信息的内容仅确定了 2项:一是 MTC设备标识, 用于指示需要触发的 MTC设备; 二是有效时间 (VT, Validity Time ), 即 触发信息在 3GPP网络中保留的时间, 超过该时间, 则 3GPP网络删除触发 信息。
在 SMS中, SC保留短信的时间为有效周期 (VP, Validity Period ), VP由用户设备在短信业务提交(SMS-submit ) 消息中设置, 指示 SC在发 送短信到接收方之前, 短信在 SC中可以保留的时间。
但在现有技术中, 对于采用 SMS发送触发信息, 触发信息中的 VT在 SMS中如何设置、在 SMS经过的网络节点如何处理等等,还没有具体的解 决方案。 发明内容
