Description

拥塞状态上报方法及接入网设备 技术领域 本发明实施例涉及通信领域, 尤其涉及一种拥塞状态上报方法及接入 网设备。 背景技术
在当前的长期演进( Long Term Evolution , 简称 LTE ) 系统中, 用户 设备 ( User Equipment, UE )进行分组交换 ( Packet Switched , 简称 PS ) 业务时, 通过演进的通用移动通信系统陆地无线接入网 (Evolved UMTS Territorial Radio Access Network, 简称 E-UTRAN ) 系统设备的基站 ( eNodeB, 简称 eNB )、 移动性管理网元 ( Mobility Management Entity, 简称 MME ) 以及服务网关( Serving Gateway, 简称 S-GW )与数据网关 ( Packet Data Network Gateway, 简称 P-GW ) 以及策略与计费规则功 能 ( Policy and Charging Rules Function , 简称 PCRF )设备等通过控制 信令建立起数据面传输通道。
也就是说, U E首先通过附着过程接入核心网, 接入核心网过程中, MME可以基于接入点 ( Access Point Name, 简称 APN )发起数据网 ( Packet Data Network, 简称 PDN ) 连接建立过程, 进而为用户设备的 数据传输建立数据面传输通道, 即用户设备的数据流所在的承载。
然而, 由于无线网络部署的每个小区 (cell ) 的容量有限, 可能会由 于用户设备的过量接入而导致拥塞, 例如, 一小区包括大量用户终端如 ( UE^ UE2、 UE3 - UEN ) , 此时每一 UE通过 eNB使用多个承载, 进 而容易导致该小区拥塞。
当前, 核心网侧的网关设备获知小区拥塞状态的方式仅通过如下的两 种, 一种方式为: 当小区拥塞时, 接入网设备如 eNB向移动性管理网元 (如 MME或者 SGSN)发送拥塞通知消息,进而核心网侧的网关设备或策 略与计费 ( Policy and Charging Control , 简称 PCC )设备获知小区拥塞 之后, 可以发起去激活部分承载或者分离部分用户等緩解拥塞状态的操 作; 另一种方式为: 当小区拥塞时, eNB通过承载的数据面通道, 向核心 网的网关设备发送通知消息, 如在数据面通道的上行数据包报头中设置拥 塞状态指示, 以使网关设备感知小区拥塞, 进而通知核心网发起修改承载 或者应用业务流的服务质量(Quality of Service, 简称 QoS ) , 比如但不 限于降低最大比特率 ( Maximum Bit Rate, 简称 MBR ) 与保证比特率 ( Guaranteed Bit Rate, 简称 GBR ) 等緩解拥塞状态的操作。
然而,上述第一种方式的缺点在于目前的 3GPP协议中没有类似的处 理过程, 若增加上述过程, 可能会对现有的协议造成很大影响; 第二种方 式的缺陷是在每个承载的上行数据包中均增加有拥塞状态指示, 其导致每 个网关设备可能会收到大量的包含有拥塞状态上报的上行数据包, 进一步 加剧拥塞的状态, 而且可能会使网关设备如 P-GW的处理更加复杂, 降低 了网关设备的处理性能。 发明内容
针对现有技术中的缺陷,本发明提供一种拥塞状态上报方法及接入网设 备, 用以降低现有技术中的网关设备在处理小区拥塞时的处理复杂度。
本发明实施例提供的拥塞状态上报方法, 包括:
接入网设备获取承载所对应的网关设备的标识, 通过与所述标识对应 的承载中的部分承载向所述网关设备上报所述接入网设备覆盖的小区的 拥塞状态信息。
本发明实施例提供的接入网设备, 包括:
获取单元, 用于获取承载所对应的网关设备的标识;
发送单元, 用于通过与所述标识对应的承载中的部分承载向所述网关 设备上报所述接入网设备覆盖的小区的拥塞状态信息。
由上述技术方案可知, 本发明实施例的拥塞状态上报方法及接入网设 备, 预先获取核心网侧的网关设备的标识, 进而通过与标识对应的承载中 的部分承载向网关设备上报接入网设备覆盖的小区的拥塞状态信息, 用以 降低现有技术中的网关设备在处理小区拥塞时的处理复杂度, 使得网关设 备处理小区拥塞时能够简化, 且能够较好的提高网关设备的处理性能。 附图说明
为了更清楚地说明本发明的技术方案, 下面将对实施例中所需要使用的 附图作一简单地介绍, 显而易见地: 下面附图只是本发明的一些实施例的附 图, 对于本领域普通技术人员来讲, 在不付出创造性劳动性的前提下, 还可 以根据这些附图获得同样能实现本发明技术方案的其它附图。
图 1为本发明的拥塞状态上报方法所应用的场景图;
图 2为本发明中用户终端的用户面数据流的示意图;
图 3为本发明中用户终端的 PDN连接的示意图;
图 4为本发明一实施例提供的拥塞状态上报方法的流程示意图; 图 5A、图 5B为本发明另一实施例提供的拥塞状态上报方法的流程示意 图;
图 6A、图 6B为本发明另一实施例提供的拥塞状态上报方法的流程示意 图;
图 7为本发明另一实施例提供的拥塞状态上报方法的流程示意图; 图 8为本发明另一实施例提供的拥塞状态上报方法的流程示意图; 图 9为本发明另一实施例提供的接入网设备的结构示意图。 具体实施方式
为使本发明的目的、 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, 对本发明的技术方案进行清楚、 完整地描述。 显然, 下述 的各个实施例都只是本发明一部分的实施例。 基于本发明下述的各个实施 例, 本领域普通技术人员即使没有作出创造性劳动, 也可以通过等效变换 部分甚至全部的技术特征, 而获得能够解决本发明技术问题, 实现本发明 技术效果的其它实施例, 而这些变换而来的各个实施例显然并不脱离本发 明所公开的范围。
如图 1所示, 目前, 长期演进网络( LTE ) 的核心网主要包含 MME、 S-GW、 P-GW三个逻辑功能体;
其中, MME负责非接入层( Non-Access-Stratum , 简称 NAS )信令 和 NAS信令加密以及漫游、 跟踪等; 以及分配用户临时身份标识、 安全 等功能, 其对应于当前通用移动通信系统 ( Universal Mobile Telecommunications System, 简称 UMTS ) 内部服务 GPRS支持节点 ( Serving GPRS Support Node, 简称 SGSN ) 的控制面部分。 应了解的 是, 在 LTE架构中, MME只有控制面, 也就是说用户面的数据流不经过 MME, 而在 UMTS陆地无线接入网 ( UMTS Territorial Radio Access Network, 简称 UTRAN ) 系统中, SGSN同时有控制面, 也有用户面, 也就是说, SGSN既管理信令处理, 也作为用户面通道。
LTE中的 S-GW负责本地的移动性锚点和 3GPP系统内部的移动性 锚点以及合法监听相关信息的功能;
LTE中的 P-GW负责策略执行和计费以及合法监听相关功能,对应于 UMTS系统中的网关设备即网关 GPRS支持节点 (Gateway GPRS
Support Node, 简称 GGSN ) 的功能。
另外, 图 1 中的 E-UTRAN负责无线接入层信令以及用户数据传输, 对应于 UMTS系统中的接入网系统 UTRAN。
图 2示出了为本发明中用户终端的用户面数据流的示意图,如图 2所示, 每个小区(cell )中包括多个 UE, 每一 UE进行分组数据业务时, 通过 eNB、 MME、 S-GW, P-GW以及 PCC设备等通过控制信令(如图 2中的链路一 ) 建立起用户数据传输通道(如图 2中的链路二、 链路三) , 进而 UE发送的 业务数据通过该用户数据传输通道进行传输。
通常, UE通过附着过程接入网络, 且在接入网络过程中, MME可以 基于该 APN发起 PDN连接建立过程(如分配用户数据传输通道的端点标 识) , 由此, 为 UE的数据传输建立用户数据传输通道即 UE传输数据流 所使用的承载。
在现有技术中, 每一 UE上可能建立多个 PDN连接, 每个 PDN连接 可以包含有多个承载, 如图 3所示, 建立了 10个承载 (如图 3中的 虚线所示) , UE2建立了 3个承载 (如图 3中的实线所示) 。
其中, UE^ 10个承载中的承载 1、 承载 2、 承载 3属于一个 PDN 连接, 承载 4、 承载 5属于另一个 PDN连接, 并且两个 PDN连接均连接 于网关设备 P-GW^ 而 UE^ 10个承载中的承载 6、 承载 7、 承载 8是 与 P-GW2建立 PDN连接, 承载 9、 承载 10与 P-GW3建立连接。
当然, 与 同一个 cell的其它终端设备也可能与 P-GW^ P-GW2、 P-GW3建立了承载 (如 UE2的承载) 。
此时, 若 11曰1与 UE2所在 cell拥塞, 目前的拥塞状态上报的方式可能 是: eNB在 UE ^ 10个承载中的上行数据包中均需设置指示拥塞状态的 信息,且与 同属一个拥塞 cell的设备的承载中的上行数据包都设置有 指示拥塞状态的信息, 那么每个网关设备如 P-GW^ P-GW2、 P-GW3可 能会收到大量的包含有拥塞状态上报的上行用户数据包, 这种方式可能会 加剧拥塞的状态, 而且可能会使网关设备 P-GW的处理较为复杂, 降低网 关设备的处理性能。 由此本发明实施例中提供一种拥塞状态上报的方法, 其能够解决现有技术中加剧拥塞的状态的问题。
以下实施例中的接入网设备可为 eNB或者无线网络控制器 (Radio
Network Controller, RNC ) 。
图 4示出了本发明一实施例提供的拥塞状态上报方法的流程示意图, 如图 4所示, 本实施例中的拥塞状态上报方法如下文所述。
401、 接入网设备如 eNB或者 RNC获取承载所对应的网关设备的标 识。
以图 3为例来说, 该步骤中的接入网设备可以获取与 UE 10个承 载所对应的核心网侧的 P-GW 的标识、 P-GW2的标识、 以及 P-GW3的标 识, 当然, 接入网设备也可以获取其他 U E的承载对应的 P-GW的标识。 获取了承载对应的 P-GW的标识, 也就是获知了承载和 P-GW之间的对 应关系。
举例来说, 在用户设备建立缺省承载的过程中, 获取缺省承载所对应 的网关设备的标识;
或者,
在核心网侧网元为用户设备建立专有承载的过程中, 获取专有承载所 对应的网关设备的标识;
或者,
在用户设备从源接入网切换至目标接入网的过程中, 获取用户设备的 承载所对应的网关设备的标识;
或者,
在用户设备从空闲态切换至连接态的过程中, 获取用户设备的承载所 对应的核心网侧的网关设备的标识。
上述步骤 401的获取方式如下述各实施例中的描述。
402、 通过与网关设备的标识对应承载中的部分承载向网关设备上报 该接入网设备所覆盖的小区的拥塞状态信息。
例如, 当接入网设备所覆盖的小区拥塞时, 向网关设备上报拥塞状态 信息以指示该小区拥塞。 当该小区不拥塞时, 向网关设备上报拥塞状态信 息以指示该小区是正常而不是拥塞。 通过与网关设备的标识对应承载中的 部分承载向网关设备上报该接入网设备所覆盖的小区的拥塞状态信息, 也 就是, 根据网关设备的标识和承载的对应关系从该标识对应的承载中选择 出的部分承载向网关设备上报该接入网设备所覆盖的小区的拥塞状态信 息。 通过与网关设备的标识对应承载中的部分承载向网关设备上报该接入 网设备所覆盖的小区的拥塞状态信息时, 可以在该部分承载的全部上行数 据包包含拥塞状态信息, 也可以在部分上行数据包中包含拥塞状态信息, 本发明实施例对此不做限定。
举例来说, 在接入网设备所覆盖的小区拥塞时, 可以通过与标识对应 的承载中的一个承载向网关设备上报拥塞状态信息。
结合图 3来说,可以通过 P-GW 的标识对应的承载中的承载 1 (该处 可以是承载 1至承载 5中的任意一个) 向 上报拥塞状态信息, 通 过 P-GW2的标识对应的承载中的承载 7 (该处还可以是承载 8或承载 6 ) 向 P-GW2上报拥塞状态信息, 通过 P-GW3的标识对应的承载中的承载 9 (该处还可以是承载 10 ) 向 P-GW3上报拥塞状态信息。 例如, 可以在该 承载 1、 承载 7、 承载 9的上行数据包中增加拥塞状态指示, 进而网关设 备(P-GW^ P-GW2、 P-GW3 )在收到上述的上行数据包之后, 可获当前 终端所驻留的小区发生拥塞, 进而对当前拥塞的小区进行解拥塞处理。
在其他实施例中, 该处的 eNB可选择 的部分承载, 如承载 1、 承载 3、 承载 6、 承载 9、 承载 10等向 P-GW^ P-GW2、 P-GW3上报拥 塞状态信息;也可以选择 UE2的部分 /全部承载等分别向网关设备 P-GW^ P-GW2、 P-GW 3上报拥塞状态信息等, 其保证每一网关设备均能够获知 小区拥塞状态信息即可, 本实施例不限定接入网设备具体选择的承载。
本实施例中不限制与标识对应的承载中的部分承载的数量, 可以根据 实际需要设置, 优选地, 可以通过与网关设备的标识对应的承载中的一个 承载向所述网关设备上报接入网设备覆盖的小区的拥塞状态信息。
由上述实施例可知, 本实施例的拥塞状态上"¾方法, 预先获取核心网 侧的网关设备的标识, 进而通过与所述标识对应的承载中的部分承载向所 述网关设备上报所述接入网设备覆盖的小区的拥塞状态信息, 用以降低现 有技术中的网关设备在处理小区拥塞时的处理复杂度, 使得网关设备处理 小区拥塞时能够简化, 且能够较好的提高网关设备的处理性能。
图 5A示出了本发明一实施例提供的拥塞状态上报方法的流程示意 图, 如图 5A所示, 本实施例中的拥塞状态上报方法如下文所述。
501、 接入网设备接收移动性管理网元根据接入网设备发送的请求建 立承载的承载建立请求返回的承载建立响应, 从承载建立响应中获取网关 设备的标识。
举例来说, 在用户设备建立缺省承载的过程中, 接入网设备如 eNB 接收核心网侧的 MME根据接入网设备发送的承载建立请求返回的承载建 立响应, 承载建立响应中包含网关设备的标识。
502、 通过与网关设备的标识对应的承载中的部分承载向网关设备上 报接入网设备覆盖的小区的拥塞状态信息。
优选地, 在与相同的网关设备建立承载的过程中, 接入网设备选择部 分承载向该网关设备上报拥塞状态信息。
结合图 3来说, eNB下有两个终端 UE驻留, 比如 UE^ UE2, UE 上建立了 10个承载进行业务, 如图 3中所示, 承载 1 , 承载 2, 承载 3.... 承载 10等, 而且这 10个承载通过三个网关设备与外部应用执行业务, 比 如 P-GW , P-GW2, P-GW
同样地, UE2上的承载也通过该三个 P-GW与外部应用执行业务, 为 简便, 图中以实黑线表示承载。
如此, eNB上可以记录各个用户 载所使用的 P-GW标识。 例如, 釆用表格进行记录。
那么, 当该 11巳1与 UE2驻留的 eNB的小区发生拥塞时, 接入网设备 可以选择 的承载 1,承载 6以及承载 9通知到与其传输用户面数据包 的网关设备如 P-GW^ P-GW2, P-GW30 而其它的 UE^ 承载 2, 承载 3...中的数据包不再需要包含有拥塞状态指示, 即不再继续上报拥塞状态 信息; UE2的承载也不再需要包含有拥塞状态指示, 即不再继续上报拥塞 状态信息。
或者, 选取 UE2的与该三个网关设备(P-GW )传输用户数据的承载 (如图 3中的黑实线所示的承载) 中包含有拥塞状态指示, 向网络侧通知 拥塞状态。
或者,选择 UE 部分与 UE2的部分承载通知到这三个网关设备。 比 如选取 的承载 1和承载 8, 在其数据包头中包含有拥塞状态指示, 而 P-GW3则可以选取 U E2的承载执行通知拥塞状态信息的过程。
或者, 也可以选取多个承载通知该三个网关设备。 比如选择 UE^ f 载 1和承载 2的数据包头中包含有拥塞状态指示, 通知 P-GW 小区拥塞 等。
上述列举的方式只是示意, 本发明实施例不限制具体执行方法, 只要 能够通知到网关设备即可以。
由上述实施例可知, 本实施例的拥塞状态上报方法, 通过在 UE的缺 省承载建立过程中获取核心网侧的网关设备的标识, 进而通过与网关设备 的标识对应的承载中的部分承载向网关设备上报所述接入网设备覆盖的 小区的拥塞状态信息, 降低了现有技术中的网关设备在处理小区拥塞时的 处理复杂度, 使得网关设备处理小区拥塞时能够简化, 且能够较好的提高 网关设备的处理性能, 进一步能够避免现有技术中拥塞加剧的现象。
图 5B示出了本发明一实施例提供的拥塞状态上报方法的流程示意 图, 如图 5B所示, 本实施例中的拥塞状态上报方法如下文所述。
51 1、 UE通过 eNB ( eNodeB ) 向核心网侧的 MME发送包括 UE的 标识的 PDN连接建立请求。
512、 MME根据 PDN连接建立请求向 S-GW发送创建会话请求, 所 述创建会话请求被核心网侧的 S-GW、 P-GW, PCRF用于交互完成创建 针对 UE的会话过程, 并接收 S-GW在创建会话过程完成之后发送的创建 会话请求的响应即创建会话响应。
513、 eNB接收 MME根据 PDN连接建立请求发送的承载建立响应, 所述承载建立响应中包含网关设备的标识 (即 P-GW的标识) 。 当然, eNB可根据承载建立响应和 UE实现重配置的过程。 需要说明的是, 在实际应用中创建会话请求、 承载建立响应中均包括 有 UE的标 f" 口国际移动用户 i只另' J码 ( International Mobile Subscriber Identification Number, 简称 IMSI ) 等。
另外, 本实施例中的 P-GW的标识可为: P-GW的 IP地址、 或者是 用户面数据通道端点标识( TEID )、或者全称域名( Fully Qualified Domain Name, 简称 FQDN )等。 当然, 也可以是上述所列举的各种标识的组合。
514、 eNB存储上述获取的网关设备的标识, 进而通过与网关设备的 标识对应的承载中的部分承载向网关设备上报所述接入网设备覆盖的小 区的拥塞状态信息。
也就是说, 针对相同的标识的网关设备, 选择与网关设备的标识对应 的承载中的部分承载向网关设备上报拥塞状态信息。
需要说明的是, 本实施例中的前述步骤 51 1、 步骤 512与现有的创建 会话过程的步骤是一致的, 本实施例仅为示意性的说明。
进一步地, 在 UE从源接入网切换至目标接入网的过程中, 获取承载 所对应的网关设备的标识。 例如, 在 UE从源接入网切换至目标接入网的 过程中, 位于目标接入网中的接入网设备接收源接入网中的接入网设备发 送的承载对应的网关设备的标识。 也就是说, 在 UE从源接入网切换至另 一目标接入网的过程中, 若与 UE连接的接入网设备发生变换, 但是核心 网侧的 MME并未变化, 此时, 若两个接入网设备之间建立有传输数据的 接口, 则 U E所连接的目标接入网侧的接入网设备接收源接入网中的接入 网设备通过上述传输数据的接口发送的网关设备的标识,
或者,
在 UE从源接入网切换至目标接入网的过程中, 位于目标接入网中的 接入网设备接收位于目标接入网的移动性管理网元发送的承载对应的网 关设备的标识。 例如, MME获知 UE所对应的 eNB发生变化时, 可直接 将网关设备的标识发送至当前 eNB。
由上述实施例可知, 本实施例的拥塞状态上报方法, 能够避免现有技 术中进一步加剧拥塞的状态的问题, 同时无需对现有的协议做过多的修 改, 使得网关设备能够较快处理小区拥塞的问题。 图 6A示出了本发明一实施例提供的拥塞状态上报方法的流程示意 图, 如图 6A所示, 本实施例中的拥塞状态上报方法如下文所述。
601、 接入网设备接收移动性管理网元根据核心网侧网元发送的请求 创建承载的创建承载指令发送的创建承载消息, 从创建承载消息中获取网 关设备的标识。
举例来说, 在核心网侧网元为 U E建立专有承载的过程中, 接入网设 备接收 MME根据核心网侧网元发送的请求创建专有承载的创建承载指令 发送的创建承载消息, 创建承载消息中包含网关设备的标识。
602、 通过与网关设备的标识对应的承载中的部分承载向网关设备上 报所述接入网设备覆盖的小区的拥塞状态信息。
本实施例的拥塞状态上报方法, 能够避免现有技术中进一步加剧拥塞 的状态的问题, 同时无需对现有的协议做过多的修改, 使得网关设备能够 较快处理小区拥塞的问题。
图 6B示出了本发明一实施例提供的拥塞状态上报方法的流程示意 图, 如图 6B所示, 本实施例中的拥塞状态上报方法如下文所述。
61 1、 核心网侧的 PCRF向 P-GW发起 IP-CAN会话修改请求, 进而 P-GW根据 IP-CAN会话修改请求向 S-GW发送创建专有承载请求。
612、 S-GW将创建专有承载请求发送至 MME, 所述 MME向接入网 设备如 eNB发送创建专有承载请求, 该创建专有承载请求中包含 P-GW 的标识, eNB根据创建专有承载请求实现和 UE的重配置过程。
613、 根据获取的网关设备的标识, 通过与网关设备的标识对应的承 载中的部分承载向网关设备上报 eNB覆盖的小区的拥塞状态信息。
在其他实施例中, eNB获取 P-GW的标识的方式还可以是: 在 UE从 空闲态切换至连接态时, 获取 UE的承载所对应的网关设备的标识, 例如 eNB接收 MME根据 eNB发送的服务请求返回的初始上下文消息, 从初 始上下文消息中获取承载对应的 P-GW的标识。
在另一实施例中, 若用户设备的专有承载、 缺省承载均建立成功, 此 时, eNB获取 P-GW的标识的方式可为:接收核心网侧的网元(如 P-GW ) 通过建立的承载发送的下行数据包, 从下行数据包中获取网关设备的标 识。 在本实施例中, 下行数据包中包含有网关设备的标识, 优选地, 上述 接入网设备接收核心网侧的网元通过建立的承载发送的第一个下行数据 包。 此时, 从第一个下行数据包中获取网关设备的标识, 即第一个下行数 据包中包含有 P-GW的标识。
上述的拥塞状态上报方法, 能够避免现有技术中进一步加剧拥塞的状 态的问题, 同时无需对现有的协议做过多的修改, 使得网关设备能够较快 处理小区拥塞的问题。
图 7示出了本发明一实施例提供的拥塞状态上报方法的流程示意图, 如图 7所示, 本实施例中的拥塞状态上报方法如下文所述。
本实施例中 UE在移动过程中所在的小区发生切换, 此时, UE若从 源接入网切换至目标接入网中 , 此时 UE接入通信网络的设备如 eNB、 MME均发生变化。
701、 在 UE移动过程中, 如果当前接入网的网元 (即源接入网的网 元, 口 Source eNodeB、 Source MME ) 不 *¾月良务该 UE, ^^么 于该 UE 发起向目标接入网的网元的切换过程,源接入网的网元向 Source MME发 送切换需求消息, 该切换需求消息中可以包括但不限于 P-GW的标识、 U E的标识、 目标接入网中网元的标识。
702、 Source MME根据目标接入网中网元的标识向目标 MME (如图 中的 Target MME )发送重定位请求,该重定位请求中包括 P-GW的标识、 UE的标识。
703、 目标 MME根据重定位请求向目标接入网中的接入网设备 (如 图中的 Target eNB )发送切换请求消息, 该切换请求消息中包括 P-GW 的标识、 UE的标识。
相应地, 目标接入网中的接入网设备如 eNB根据切换请求消息向目 标 MME发送切换指示确认,进而在收到确认响应消息后, 实现将当前 UE 从源接入网切换至目标接入网中。
704、 目标接入网中接入网设备存储获取的 P-GW的标识, 通过与 P-GW的标识对应的承载中的部分承载向 P-GW上报目标接入网中的 eN B 覆盖的小区的拥塞状态信息。
上述的拥塞状态上报方法, 能够避免现有技术中进一步加剧拥塞的状 态的问题, 同时无需修改现有的协议, 使得网关设备能够较快处理小区拥 塞的问题。
图 8示出了本发明一实施例提供的拥塞状态上报方法的流程示意图, 如图 8所示, 本实施例中的拥塞状态上报方法如下文所述。
通常, UE在无数据传输, 并且在与通信网侧无信令过程时, 转为空 闲态。
当 UE转入空闲态时, 接入网设备中保存的 UE的上下文信息以及前 述实施例提到的网关设备标识信息全部清除。 此时, 在 UE由空闲态转为 连接态时, 接入网设备还需重新获取网关设备的标识。
在实际应用中, UE由空闲态转为连接态的过程可能是服务请求过程, 也可能是周期性位置更新过程。 本实施例以服务请求过程为例描述。
801、 在 UE从空闲态切换至连接态时, 接入网设备如 eNB接收 UE 发送的服务请求, 以及将该服务请求转发至 MME。
802、 接入网设备如 eNB接收所述核心网侧的 MME根据接入网设备 如 eNB发送的服务请求返回的初始上下文消息, 从初始上下文消息中获 取承载对应的网关设备的标识。
803、 通过与网关设备的标识对应的承载中的部分承载向网关设备上 报接入网设备覆盖的小区的拥塞状态信息。
需要说明的是, 如果通过 UE由空闲态转入连接态时的周期性位置更 新过程, 则可以通过周期性位置更新接收消息, MME将 UE的 PDN连接 所接入的网关设备标识通知接入网设备。
上述的拥塞状态上报方法, 接入网设备可以针对每一个网关设备选择 特定的承载通过上行数据包向网络侧上报拥塞状态, 这样避免了大量的重 复发送上报拥塞状态数据包的行为, 减少了网关设备的操作, 从而达到节 能减排的目的。
在另一实施例中, 还可能出现的是: 在 UE的承载建立成功之后, 接 入网设备接收核心网侧的网元通过建立的承载发送的下行数据包, 下行数 据包中的任一数据包可包含网关设备的标识, 进而从下行数据包中获取网 关设备的标识。
具体地, 接入网设备接收核心网侧的网元发送的第一个下行数据包, 第一个下行数据包中包含有网关设备的标识 ,
