Description

一种邻近通信业务的实现方法及装置
本申请要求在2013年4月1日提交中国专利局、申请号为201310111483.8、发明名称 为“一种邻近通信业务的实现方法及装置”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用 结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本发明涉及通信技术,尤其涉及一种邻近通信业务的实现方法及装置。
背景技术
目前第三代移动通信标准化组织(3rd Generation Partnership Project,3GPP)正在研究 设备与设备之间的邻近通信问题,其主要应用场景是若当通信的设备距离较近,希望设备 与设备之间的应用层数据传输可以在两个设备之间直接进行而不用通过移动通信网络,或 者通过设备连接的服务基站转发,而不用通过核心网。为了最终实现这一目的,还需要研 究应用层如何触发网络层进行邻近关系发现和邻近通信建立,以及应用层用户业务标识如 何与网络层标识关联的问题。
目前3GPP中定义的两个设备间的通信过程,其数据通道如图1所示,UE1将数据发 送到服务的演进型基站(evolved Node B,eNB),而eNB会将数据传递到服务的核心网设 备服务网关(Serving Gate-Way,SGW)和分组数据网网关(Packte Data Network-GateWay, PGW),PGW会根据UE的路由表示将数据路由到UE1的服务PGW和Serving GW,UE2 服务的Serving GW将数据传递到UE2服务的eNB,在通过eNB传递给UE2。图1中所示 的例子是当UE1和UE2服务的Serving GW和PGW相同时的场景,此时省略了为UE1服 务的PGW将数据路由到为UE2服务的PGW的过程。
由图1可以看出,即使通信的两个终端之间的位置非常相近,通信数据也需要通过各 自服务的eNB,核心网才能到达对端,通信延时非常大,而且还会占用网络的资源。因此 3GPP现在正在研究关于邻近设备之间的通信技术,即若通信双方距离很近时,能够实现 两个UE之间直接通信或者仅仅借助eNB的传递实现快速通信。
图2a和图2b为实现邻近通信后终端之间的数据传输路径图,如图2a和图2b所示, UE1和UE2可以直接传输,不需要经过移动网络设备,或者若两个UE连接到同一eNB 时可以通过服务的eNB转发数据,而不需要将数据路由过核心网。这种传输方式可以减少 数据传输的延时,并且可以节省网络的资源,特别是核心网的网络资源。
目前在3GPP SA1中正在讨论邻近通信的需求,根据讨论结果,邻近通信大致可以分 为两大类问题,一类问题是终端之间的邻近关系发现过程,第二类问题则是邻近UE如何 实现直接通信的问题。
终端之间的邻近关系发现过程不仅仅是实现邻近终端直接通信的前提,同时还有很多 的应用场景。例如商家可以通过检测邻近关系向路过的行人终端发送打折促销广告,用户 可以通过邻近关系发现功能搜索当前位置附近的餐馆和超市等信息,公交站可以根据邻近 关系发现功能预报公交到站信息等等。
UE间的直接通信仍然需要由网络控制,并且由网络决定用于邻近通信业务(ProSe) 通信的资源,因此UE服务的eNB与移动管理实体(Mobile Management Entity,MME) 之间也会交互信息,如果两个执行邻近通信的UE驻留在不同的eNB下,核心网还可能分 别与这两个UE驻留的eNB进行信令交互。
3GPP定义了一种限制邻近关系发现的场景,具体描述如下:
如果运营商授权某一业务可以使用邻近业务特性,则:
某一用户具有允许使用邻近业务的终端,则可以发现拥有同样功能UE的朋友在邻近 位置,同时也可以被其朋友发现。
社交网络应用可以使用邻近业务特性。
例如Mary,Peter和John使用某一社交网络应用,在其应用层维护的上下文中显示如 下关系信息:
Mary和John是朋友;
John和Peter是朋友;
Mary和Peter不是朋友。
假设Mary,Peter和John都使用具有邻近业务特性的终端,他们签约到相同的蜂窝网 络运营商,并且运营商允许他们使用邻近业务特性。
对于这种场景,需要实现下述功能:
Mary的UE可以发现John在邻近位置;
John的UE可以发现Mary在邻近位置;
Mary的社交网络应用能知道John是否在其邻近位置;
John的社交网络应用能知道Mary是否在其邻近位置;
Peter的UE不能发现Mary的UE在其邻近位置;
Mary的社交网络应用不能检测到Peter是否在其邻近位置;
Peter的社交网络应用不能检测到Mary是否在其邻近位置;
因此这一特性要求只有朋友之间才能相互发现其邻近关系,如果应用层显示不是朋友 关系,则不能相互发现其邻近关系。
同时运营商也能控制UE之间的邻近关系发现特性,对于一个具有邻近关系发现功能 的UE,策略和用户选择可以对这一UE配置如下特性:
可以发现邻近的其他UE但不能被别人发现;
可以被其他UE发现但是不能发现别人;
可以发现其他UE也能被其他UE发现;
不能被其他UE发现也不能发起其他UE;
在邻近发现过程中,UE只能发现那些设置为允许被别人发现的UE。
可见,目前3GPP定义了对于邻近通信业务的需求,要求终端能够在应用层的触发下, 发起邻近通信业务,包括邻近关系发现和邻近通信连接建立。这一需求与终端的邻近关系 签约信息,网络配置以及应用层用户关系等因素相关,由于终端上的应用多种多样,应用 层的标识也纷繁复杂,3GPP网络不可能将UE上所有的应用层标识与UE的3GPP网络内 标识关联;另外,由于应用层与网络层应当是相互独立的,用户可以在终端A上登录某应 用,也可以在终端B上登录此应用,因此3GPP网络难以维护用户应用层标识和UE的3GPP 网络内标识的关联关系。
基于以上原因,当UE上的应用要求使用邻近通信业务时,包括邻近关系发现和邻近 通信连接的建立,网络无法根据用户的应用层标识来确定UE的3GPP网络内标识,因此 无法进行邻近通信业务。
发明内容
本发明实施例提供一种邻近通信业务的实现方法及装置,以实现UE的邻近通信业务。
一种邻近通信业务的实现方法,包括:
接收用户设备UE发送的邻近通信业务请求;
根据所述UE发送的邻近通信业务请求,确定所述UE签约邻近通信业务时获得的邻 近通信业务标识;

具体实施方式
本发明实施例提供一种邻近通信业务的实现方法及装置,在UE签约时,为UE分配 邻近通信业务标识,这样,在接收到UE发送的邻近通信业务请求后,确定UE的邻近通 信业务标识,再根据UE的邻近通信业务标识,实现邻近通信业务,即可避免网络无法根 据用户的应用层标识来确定UE的3GPP网络内标识,无法进行邻近通信业务的情况,从 而实现UE的邻近通信业务。
如图3所示,本发明实施例中为了解决UE在3GPP内部标识与UE和应用层标识的 映射关系,将邻近通信视为一种3GPP网络提供的业务,该业务使用与终端用户标识模块 (Subscriber Identity Module,SIM)/通用用户标识模块(Universal Subscriber Identity  Module,USIM)卡绑定的邻近通信业务标识来标识终端,邻近通信业务标识可能是移动 用户综合业务数字网号码(Mobile Subscriber Integrated Services Digital Network Number, MSISDN),扩展标识(External ID)或者新分配的用于标识邻近通信业务的标识。采用与 MTC类似的架构,在3GPP网络中设置一个与应用服务器相连的邻近通信业务服务器,用 于向应用层服务器屏蔽3GPP网络的拓扑和连接关系。邻近通信业务服务器只位于归属公 共陆上移动网络(home public land mobile network,HPLMN),与应用层之间有接口,同 时与归属用户服务器(Home Subscriber Server,HSS)和MME有接口连接。邻近通信业 务服务节点主要具有以下功能:
1.根据邻近通信业务标识向HSS查询UE的内部标识和获取与邻近通信相关的签约信 息;
2.接收应用服务器发送的邻近通信业务请求和返回邻近通信业务状态;
3.认证应用服务器是否允许发起邻近通信业务;
4.保存终端的位置信息和邻近通信业务标识;
5.判断邻近通信业务是否可以建立,包括邻近终端发现和邻近通信连接建立;
6.根据邻近通信业务产生计费数据。
如图4所示,本发明实施例提供的邻近通信业务的实现方法,包括:
步骤S401、接收用户设备UE发送的邻近通信业务请求;
步骤S402、根据UE发送的邻近通信业务请求,确定UE签约邻近通信业务时获得的 邻近通信业务标识;
步骤S403、根据UE的邻近通信业务标识,实现邻近通信业务。
如果UE发送的邻近通信业务请求中,携带有邻近通信业务标识,则可以直接从邻近 通信业务请求中确定邻近通信业务标识,如果UE发送的邻近通信业务请求中,只携带有 应用层用户标识,则需要根据UE发送的邻近通信业务请求中携带的应用层用户标识以及 应用层用户标识与邻近通信业务标识之间的对应关系,确定UE签约邻近通信业务时获得 的邻近通信业务标识。
因此,步骤S402中,根据UE发送的邻近通信业务请求,确定UE签约邻近通信业务 时获得的邻近通信业务标识,具体包括:
获取UE发送的邻近通信业务请求中携带的邻近通信业务标识;或者
根据UE发送的邻近通信业务请求中携带的应用层用户标识,确定UE签约邻近通信 业务时获得的邻近通信业务标识。
在具体实现时,可以在用户向运营商签约邻近通信业务时,运营商向用户提供邻近通 信业务标识,记为ProSe ID,该标识可能是手机号码,终端外部标识,或者新的由邻近通 信业务服务器分配的标识;并在HSS中保存终端的邻近通信业务标识与IMSI的映射,以 及邻近通信业务相关的签约信息,例如搜索范围,是否允许被发现等;当UE登录应用服 务器时,若终端和应用都支持邻近通信业务,则UE同时提供Prose ID和应用层的User ID 登录应用;用户直接使用邻近通信业务时,终端和网络使用ProSe ID进行邻近通信业务的 建立;用户使用应用层具体应用时,应用服务器可以基于用户的应用层请求或服务器自身 的判断来请求ProSe Server为该用户建立邻近通信业务,此时应用服务器需根据User ID索 引到ProSe ID,并根据ProSe ID选择合适的ProSe Server;实现该邻近通信业务。
UE签约邻近通信业务时获得的邻近通信业务标识与UE的签约信息绑定,并可以进一 步保存在UE的签约信息中。
用户可以通过应用发送邻近通信业务请求,也可以直接向网络侧发送邻近通信业务请 求,若用户通过应用发送邻近通信业务请求,则由应用服务器处理该邻近通信业务请求, 若用户直接向网络侧发送邻近通信业务请求,则由邻近通信业务服务器处理该邻近通信业 务请求。
