本发明涉及通信领域, 特别是涉及传输 RN ( Relay Node , 中继节点)信息、 寻呼 UE 的方法及装置。 背景技术  The present invention relates to the field of communications, and in particular, to a method and apparatus for transmitting RN (Relay Node) information and paging a UE. Background technique
现有技术中 ΜΜΕ ( Mobility Management Entity, 移动性管理实体) 以 Tracking Area ( Tracking Area, 跟踪区)为粒度, 对 UE (用户设备 )移动性进行管理, 包括对 UE的寻 呼, Tracking Area的结构示意图参见图 1所示。 一般情况下, 一个 Tracking Area区域包含 多个基站控制的连续覆盖的小区, 根据图 1 所示基站 1、 2 和 3 控制的小区被配置属于 Tracking Area 1;基站 4、 5和 6控制的小区被配置属于 Tracking Area2 , UE 1在 Tracking Area 1 区域所属小区间移动时不需要发起位置更新过程, 当 UE1移动出 Tracking Area 1时, UE1 需要发起新的位置更新过程 (例如 UE1移动到 Tracking Area2 )。 当网络要对 UE1进行寻 呼时, 寻呼消息将被发送给 Tracking Areal包含的所有基站(在本例中寻呼的目标基站包 括基站 1、 2和 3 ), 目标基站收到寻呼消息后, 分别在自己控制的小区的空口发送下行寻 呼消息。 UE1从当前自身驻留小区的下行寻呼信道接收到对自身的寻呼消息。 通常情况下 每个小区的下行寻呼信道容量是一定的, 因此在规划 Tracking Area区域时, 一个重要的输 入就是目标区域内空闲状态的 UE数量以及空闲状态的 UE转换到连接状态的概率, 从而 避免寻呼消息负载过重引起的下行寻呼信道过载导致的寻呼拥塞问题。  The Mobility Management Entity (Mobility Management Entity) uses the Tracking Area (Tracking Area) as the granularity to manage the UE (User Equipment) mobility, including paging to the UE, and the structure of the Tracking Area. The schematic diagram is shown in Figure 1. Generally, a Tracking Area area includes a plurality of cells controlled by a plurality of base stations, and the cells controlled by the base stations 1, 2, and 3 are configured to belong to the Tracking Area 1 according to FIG. 1; the cells controlled by the base stations 4, 5, and 6 are The configuration belongs to the Tracking Area 2, and the UE 1 does not need to initiate a location update process when the Tracking Area 1 belongs to the cell. When the UE1 moves out of the Tracking Area 1, the UE1 needs to initiate a new location update process (for example, the UE1 moves to the Tracking Area 2). When the network wants to page UE1, the paging message will be sent to all base stations included in Tracking Area1 (in this example, the target base station for paging includes base stations 1, 2 and 3), and after receiving the paging message, the target base station receives the paging message. , respectively, sending a downlink paging message on the air interface of the cell that is controlled by itself. UE1 receives a paging message to itself from the downlink paging channel of the current self-resident cell. Generally, the downlink paging channel capacity of each cell is constant. Therefore, when planning the Tracking Area, an important input is the number of UEs in the idle state in the target area and the probability that the UE in the idle state transitions to the connected state. Avoid the paging congestion problem caused by the overload of the paging channel caused by excessive paging message overload.
Mobile Relay (移动中继)引入主要是解决高速铁路覆盖场景问题, 通常在每列列车上 部署一个移动 Relay。 引入移动 Relay的系统结构和配置如图 2所示。  The introduction of Mobile Relay is mainly to solve the problem of high-speed railway coverage scenarios, usually deploying a mobile relay on each train. The system structure and configuration of the mobile relay is shown in Figure 2.
对于移动 Relay控制的小区的 Tracking Area设置, 目前尚无解决方案。 一种可能的方 法是将不同 Relay控制的小区配置为互不相同的 Tracking Area ID , 此方法的好处是对于任 何驻留在 Mobile Relay下的 UE, Paging(寻呼)消息只需要发送给唯一的目标 Mobile Relay, 从而实现对寻呼信令传输的优化。由于此方法需要为不同的移动 Relay配置不同的 Tracking Area ID (区域标识), 因此对 Tracking Area ID本身的容量有要求。 由于在网络中 Mobile Relay数量可能非常多, 所以作为现有参数的 Tracking Area ID本身的容量不能满足为每个 Mobile Relay分配互不相同的 Tracking Area ID。 发明内容 There is currently no solution for the Tracking Area setting of the cell controlled by the Mobile Relay. One possible method is to configure different Delay-controlled cells to be different from each other. The advantage of this method is that for any UE residing under the Mobile Relay, the Paging message only needs to be sent to the unique one. Target Mobile Relay, which optimizes paging signaling transmission. Since this method needs to configure different Tracking Area IDs for different mobile relays, the capacity of the Tracking Area ID itself is required. Since the number of Mobile Relays in the network may be very large, the capacity of the Tracking Area ID itself as an existing parameter cannot be satisfied for each The Mobile Relay assigns different Tracking Area IDs.

本发明实施例中核心网设备在需要向空闲状态的 UE进行寻呼时, 判断该 UE是否驻 留在移动 RN下, 若是, 则向该移动 RN发送寻呼消息, 而不是向 TA内的所有基站发送 寻呼消息。 既解决了对移动 RN下空闲状态 UE的寻呼问题, 又实现了将寻呼消息发送给 特定 RN, 节省了网络资源。 核心网设备在向移动 RN发送寻呼消息之前, 需要在位置更 新过程中确定移动 RN的标识。 本发明实施例中核心网设备可以在位置更新过程中直接获 得移动 RN的标识, 或者在与移动 RN建立连接的过程中获得移动 RN的标识。  In the embodiment of the present invention, when the core network device needs to page to the UE in the idle state, it is determined whether the UE is camped on the mobile RN, and if yes, sends a paging message to the mobile RN instead of all in the TA. The base station sends a paging message. The paging problem of the idle state UE in the mobile RN is solved, and the paging message is sent to the specific RN, thereby saving network resources. The core network device needs to determine the identity of the mobile RN during the location update process before sending the paging message to the mobile RN. In the embodiment of the present invention, the core network device may directly obtain the identifier of the mobile RN in the location update process, or obtain the identifier of the mobile RN in the process of establishing a connection with the mobile RN.
参见图 3 , 本实施例中核心网设备获得移动 RN信息的主要方法流程如下:  Referring to FIG. 3, the main method for obtaining the mobile RN information by the core network device in this embodiment is as follows:
步骤 301 :核心网设备在位置更新过程中接收移动 RN发送的上行 UE相关 S1AP消息。 步骤 302: 核心网设备通过上行 UE相关 S1AP消息确定发送该上行 UE相关 S1AP消 息的移动 RN的标识,并将移动 RN的标识保存到与上行 UE相关 S1AP消息有关的 UE的 上下文中。  Step 301: The core network device receives an uplink UE related S1AP message sent by the mobile RN in the location update process. Step 302: The core network device determines, by using an uplink UE related S1AP message, an identifier of the mobile RN that sends the uplink UE related S1AP message, and saves the identifier of the mobile RN to the context of the UE related to the uplink UE related S1AP message.
上行 UE相关 S1AP消息具体为位置更新消息,可携带移动 RN的标识或移动 RN的地 址信息 (如 IP ( Internet Protocol, 互联网协议)地址等)。  The uplink UE related S1AP message is specifically a location update message, and may carry the identity of the mobile RN or the address information of the mobile RN (such as an IP (Internet Protocol) address, etc.).
当釆用上行 UE相关 S1AP消息携带有移动 RN的标识的方案时, 核心网设备直接通 过上行 UE相关 S1AP消息确定发送该上行 UE相关 S1AP消息的移动 RN的标识。  When the uplink UE related S1AP message carries the scheme of the identity of the mobile RN, the core network device directly determines the identity of the mobile RN that sends the uplink UE related S1AP message by using the uplink UE related S1AP message.
当釆用上行 UE相关 S1AP消息携带有移动 RN的地址信息的方案时, 核心网设备在 与移动 RN建立连接的过程中获得移动 RN的标识和地址信息,然后通过上行 UE相关 S1AP 消息确定发送该上行 UE相关 S1AP消息的移动 RN的地址信息, 并通过该地址信息确定 移动 RN的标识。  When the uplink UE related S1AP message carries the scheme of the mobile RN's address information, the core network device obtains the identity and address information of the mobile RN in the process of establishing a connection with the mobile RN, and then determines to send the uplink UE related S1AP message. The address information of the mobile RN of the uplink UE related S1AP message, and the identifier of the mobile RN is determined by the address information.
较佳的, 移动 RN的标识为特定范围的基站标识, 或者包括基站标识和移动 RN类型。 在 UE移出移动 RN的覆盖区域后 , UE向基站发送位置更新请求。核心网设备在位置 更新过程中接收基站发送的上行 UE相关 S1AP消息,并查询与上行 UE相关 S1AP消息有 关的 UE的上下文,若查询到移动 RN的标识,则删除该 UE上下文中保存的移动 RN的标 识。  Preferably, the identifier of the mobile RN is a specific range of base station identifiers, or includes a base station identifier and a mobile RN type. After the UE moves out of the coverage area of the mobile RN, the UE sends a location update request to the base station. The core network device receives the uplink UE-related S1AP message sent by the base station in the location update process, and queries the context of the UE related to the uplink UE-related S1AP message. If the identifier of the mobile RN is queried, the mobile RN saved in the UE context is deleted. Logo.
以上介绍了核心网设备确定移动 RN标识并保存到 UE的上下文中的实现过程, 由于 核心网设备获得的移动 RN的标识是由移动 RN上报的, 因此对移动 RN的上报过程做了 改进, 下面对上报 RN信息的实现过程进行介绍, 主要有两种实现方式, 参见图 4和图 5 所示。  The implementation process of the mobile network RN is determined by the mobile network RN. In the face of the implementation process of reporting RN information, there are two main implementation methods, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5.
参见图 4 , 本实施例中上报 RN信息的第一种方法流程如下: 步骤 401: 移动 RN接收 UE发送的位置更新请求消息。 Referring to FIG. 4, the flow of the first method for reporting RN information in this embodiment is as follows: Step 401: The mobile RN receives a location update request message sent by the UE.
步骤 402: 移动 RN向核心网设备发送上行 UE相关 S 1 AP消息, 上行 UE相关 S 1 AP 消息携带有移动 RN的标识。  Step 402: The mobile RN sends an uplink UE related S 1 AP message to the core network device, where the uplink UE related S 1 AP message carries the identifier of the mobile RN.
较佳的, 移动 RN的标识为特定范围的基站标识, 或者包括基站标识和移动 RN类型。 参见图 5 , 本实施例中上报 RN信息的第二种方法流程如下:  Preferably, the identifier of the mobile RN is a specific range of base station identifiers, or includes a base station identifier and a mobile RN type. Referring to FIG. 5, the second method for reporting RN information in this embodiment is as follows:
步骤 501: 移动 RN在与核心网设备建立连接时向核心网设备发送自身的标识和地址 信息。  Step 501: The mobile RN sends its own identity and address information to the core network device when establishing a connection with the core network device.
步骤 502: 移动 RN接收 UE发送的位置更新请求消息。  Step 502: The mobile RN receives a location update request message sent by the UE.
步骤 503: 移动 RN向核心网设备发送上行 UE相关 S1AP消息, 上行 UE相关 S1AP 消息携带有移动 RN的地址信息。  Step 503: The mobile RN sends an uplink UE related S1AP message to the core network device, where the uplink UE related S1AP message carries the address information of the mobile RN.
较佳的, 移动 RN的标识包括特定范围的基站标识, 或者包括基站标识和移动 RN类 型。  Preferably, the identity of the mobile RN includes a specific range of base station identifiers, or includes a base station identity and a mobile RN type.
以上是从核心网设备和移动 RN两侧分别介绍在位置更新过程中的实现, 下面结合两 侧, 详细介绍确定和保存移动 RN标识的实现过程。  The above is the implementation of the location update process from both the core network device and the mobile RN. The following describes the implementation process of determining and saving the mobile RN identity in combination with the two sides.
参见图 6, 本实施例中上行 UE相关 S1AP消息携带有移动 RN的标识时, 确定和保存 移动 RN标识的方法流程如下:  Referring to FIG. 6, in the embodiment, when the uplink UE related S1AP message carries the identifier of the mobile RN, the method for determining and saving the mobile RN identifier is as follows:
步骤 601: UE通过空口将位置更新请求消息发送给移动 RN。  Step 601: The UE sends a location update request message to the mobile RN through an air interface.
步骤 602: 通过上行 UE相关的 S1AP消息, Mobile Relay将自身移动 RN标识和位置 更新请求消息发送给核心网设备。 (其中具体上行 UE相关 S1AP 消息包括 "Initial UE Message (初始 UE信息)"消息或 "Uplink NAS Transport (上行链路非接入层直传)"消息, 具体内容可以参见 3GPP TS 36.413 )。 移动 RN标识有多种, 如网络可以预留专用的 e B (演进基站)ID范围作为移动 RN标识专门配置给移动 RN使用, eNB ID定义可参见 3GPP TS36.413 , MME根据 eNB ID的范围来对移动 RN和普通 eNB进行区分; 又如移动 RN标 识由两部分组成, 包括现有的 eNB ID部分和移动 RN类型指示部分,其中移动 RN类型指 示用于指示当前设备类型为移动 RN。  Step 602: The Mobile Relay sends its own mobile RN identity and location update request message to the core network device by using the uplink UE related S1AP message. (The specific uplink UE related S1AP message includes an "Initial UE Message" message or an "Uplink NAS Transport" message. For details, refer to 3GPP TS 36.413). There are multiple types of mobile RNs. For example, the network can reserve a dedicated e B (Evolved Base Station) ID range as the mobile RN identifier, which is specifically configured for use by the mobile RN. For the eNB ID definition, refer to 3GPP TS36.413. The MME is based on the range of the eNB ID. The mobile RN and the normal eNB are distinguished. For example, the mobile RN identifier is composed of two parts, including an existing eNB ID part and a mobile RN type indication part, where the mobile RN type indication is used to indicate that the current device type is a mobile RN.
步骤 603: 核心网设备将收到的移动 RN标识保存到 UE的上下文中。  Step 603: The core network device saves the received mobile RN identifier in the context of the UE.
参见图 7, 本实施例中上行 UE相关 S1AP消息携带有移动 RN的地址信息时, 确定和 保存移动 RN标识的方法流程如下:  Referring to FIG. 7, in the embodiment, when the uplink UE related S1AP message carries the address information of the mobile RN, the method for determining and saving the mobile RN identifier is as follows:
移动 RN与 MME建立 S1接口 (接入网与核心网之间的接口 )时, 移动 RN将自身标 识发送给核心网设备, 核心网设备将移动 RN标识保存到此移动 RN的上下文, 以及通过 接收移动 RN标识的消息获得移动 RN的地址信息。 移动 RN标识有多种, 如网络可以预 留专用的 eNB ID范围作为移动 RN标识专门配置给移动 RN使用, eNB ID定义可参见 3GPP TS36.413 , 核心网设备根据 eNB ID的范围来对移动 RN和普通 eNB进行区分; 又如移动 RN标识由两部分组成, 包括现有的 eNB ID部分和移动 RN类型指示部分, 其中移动 RN 类型指示用于指示当前设备类型为移动 RN。 When the mobile RN establishes an S1 interface (the interface between the access network and the core network), the mobile RN sends its own identity to the core network device, and the core network device saves the mobile RN identity to the context of the mobile RN, and receives the The message identified by the mobile RN obtains the address information of the mobile RN. There are many types of mobile RNs, such as the network can be pre- The dedicated eNB ID range is specifically configured for the mobile RN as the mobile RN identity. For the eNB ID definition, refer to 3GPP TS36.413. The core network device distinguishes the mobile RN from the normal eNB according to the range of the eNB ID. It consists of two parts, including an existing eNB ID part and a mobile RN type indication part, where the mobile RN type indication is used to indicate that the current device type is a mobile RN.
步骤 701: UE通过空口将位置更新请求消息发送给移动 RN。  Step 701: The UE sends a location update request message to the mobile RN through an air interface.
步骤 702:通过上行 UE相关的 S 1 AP消息,移动 RN将位置更新请求消息发送给 MME。 位置更新请求消息携带有移动 RN的地址信息。 其中具体上行 UE相关 S1AP消息的具体 内容可以参见 3GPP TS36.4130 Step 702: The mobile RN sends a location update request message to the MME by using an uplink UE related S1 AP message. The location update request message carries the address information of the mobile RN. The specific content of the specific uplink UE related S1AP message can be found in 3GPP TS36.413 0
步骤 703: 根据收到的 S 1 AP消息来源的 S 1接口对应的移动 RN的地址信息, 以及根 据建立 S1接口连接时获得的移动 RN的标识和地址信息, 核心网设备将之前保存的移动 RN的标识保存到 UE的上下文中。  Step 703: The core network device saves the previously saved mobile RN according to the address information of the mobile RN corresponding to the S1 interface of the received S1 AP message source, and the identity and address information of the mobile RN obtained when the S1 interface is established. The identity is saved in the context of the UE.
参见图 8,本实施例中 UE移出移动 RN的覆盖区域后更新 UE上下文的方法流程如下: Referring to FIG. 8, the method for updating the UE context after the UE moves out of the coverage area of the mobile RN in this embodiment is as follows:
UE从移动 RN下移动到基站下。 The UE moves from the mobile RN to the base station.
步骤 801: UE通过空口将位置更新请求消息发送给 e B。  Step 801: The UE sends a location update request message to the e B through the air interface.
步骤 802: eNB通过上行 UE相关的 S1AP消息, 将位置更新请求消息发送给核心网 设备。 其中具体上行 UE相关 S1AP消息的具体内容可以参见 3GPP TS36.413。  Step 802: The eNB sends a location update request message to the core network device by using an S1AP message related to the uplink UE. For details of the specific uplink UE related S1AP message, refer to 3GPP TS36.413.
步骤 803: 核心网设备通过查询 UE的上下文判断出 UE移出移动 RN , 删除 UE上下 文中保存的 UE上次成功接入的移动 RN 的标识信息。  Step 803: The core network device determines that the UE moves out of the mobile RN by querying the context of the UE, and deletes the identifier information of the mobile RN that the UE last successfully accessed by the UE in the context.
核心网设备在确定并保存移动 RN的标识后, 便可以在寻呼过程中据此判断需寻呼的 UE是否驻留在移动 RN下, 并进行相应的寻呼过程。  After determining and saving the identity of the mobile RN, the core network device can determine whether the UE to be paged is camped on the mobile RN according to the paging process, and perform a corresponding paging process.
参见图 9 , 本实施例中寻呼 UE的方法流程如下:  Referring to FIG. 9, the method for paging a UE in this embodiment is as follows:
步骤 901 : 核心网设备根据触发条件确定需要对空闲状态的 UE发起寻呼过程。 触发 条件包括: "下行数据到达"和"语音呼叫过程中被呼侧核心网收到呼叫请求"等。  Step 901: The core network device determines, according to the trigger condition, that a paging process needs to be initiated for the UE in the idle state. The trigger conditions include: "downstream data arrival" and "call request received by the called core network during the voice call".
步骤 902: 核心网设备根据该 UE的上下文判断该 UE是否驻留在移动 RN下。 具体方 式包括: 一种方法是为全网的移动 RN配置特殊的 TAI ( Tracking Area Identity, 跟踪区标 识)或 TAI范围, 即全网的移动 RN共用一个特定的 TAI或将几个特定的 TAI分配给全网 的移动 RN, 不是为每个移动 RN分配唯一的 TAL该特定的 TAI只能由移动 RN及驻留在 移动 RN下的 UE使用, UE在上报的位置更新请求中携带 TAI, 核心网设备收到后将其保 存在该 UE的上下文中。核心网设备根据 UE当前注册的 TAI判断 UE是否驻留在移动 RN 下。 另一种方法是核心网设备根据 UE上下文中是否保存了移动 RN的标识判断 UE是否 驻留在移动 RN下。 步骤 903: 若是, 则核心网设备根据该 UE的上下文中保存的移动 RN的标识, 向相应 的移动 RN发送寻呼消息。 Step 902: The core network device determines, according to the context of the UE, whether the UE resides under the mobile RN. The specific method includes: One method is to configure a special TAI (Tracking Area Identity) or TAI range for the mobile RN of the entire network, that is, the mobile RNs of the entire network share a specific TAI or allocate several specific TAIs. For the mobile RN of the entire network, instead of assigning a unique TAL to each mobile RN, the specific TAI can only be used by the mobile RN and the UE camping on the mobile RN, and the UE carries the TAI in the reported location update request, and the core network After the device receives it, it is saved in the context of the UE. The core network device determines whether the UE resides under the mobile RN according to the TAI currently registered by the UE. Another method is that the core network device determines whether the UE resides under the mobile RN according to whether the identity of the mobile RN is saved in the UE context. Step 903: If yes, the core network device sends a paging message to the corresponding mobile RN according to the identifier of the mobile RN saved in the context of the UE.
若否, 则核心网设备根据该 UE的上下文中保存的 TAI信息, 向配置了该 TAI的所有 基站发送寻呼消息。 对于 LTE ( Long Term Evolution, 长期演进) 系统, 以 TA为粒度进行 寻呼, 对于 GSM ( Global System for Mobile communication, 全球移动通信系统)或 UMTS ( Universal Mobile Telecommunication System, 通用移动通信系统 )等系统, 以位置区为粒 度进行寻呼。  If not, the core network device sends a paging message to all base stations configured with the TAI according to the TAI information stored in the context of the UE. For LTE (Long Term Evolution) systems, paging at the granularity of TA, for systems such as GSM (Global System for Mobile communication) or UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunication System), Paging is performed at the granularity of the location area.
