为了解决目前无线通信网络存在数据传输时延大, 网络瘫痪风险高的问 题。 本发明实施例中, 删除现有无线通信网络中的 PDN-GW、 SGW、 PCRF 实体、 MME和 HSS, 由接入网设备为 UE分配 IP地址, 应用服务器通过上 述 IP地址为 UE进行数据传输服务, 从而避免了 SGW到 PDN-GW的链路成 为无线通信网络的处理能力瓶颈, 实现了网络扁平化, 有效减少了数据传输 时延, 降低了网络瘫痪风险。
下面结合附图对本发明优选的实施方式进行详细说明。
无线通信网络架构图参阅图 3所示, 该无线通信网络包括至少一个 UE, 至少一个蜂窝网接入网设备(如 eNB等), 以及应用服务器, 此外, 上述无线 通信网络还可以包含至少一个非蜂窝网接入网设备, 如接入点( Access Point, AP )或者接入控制器 (Access Control, AC )。
参阅图 4所示, 本发明实施例中, UE与无线通信网络中各个设备之间的 通信流程包括:
步骤 400: 获取接入网设备分配的 IP地址。
本发明实施例中, 当 UE启动之后, 扫描可使用的接入网, 当检测到符合 预设规则的允许接入的接入网后, 接入该符合预设规则的允许接入的接入网; 其中, 上述预设规则为根据具体应用场景预先设置的规则, 该预设规则包括
选择接入网的优先级规则或信道质量门限等, 该预设规则由协议规定、 或 UE 自身的配置信息规定或者由应用服务器制定的策略规定。
可选的, 当上述接入网为蜂窝网络时, UE获取该蜂窝网络对应的接入网 设备为该 UE分配的 IP地址; 当上述接入网为非蜂窝网絡时 , 该 UE获取对 应于非蜂窝网络的 IP地址; 其中, 上述蜂窝网络为 UE启动后首次接入的蜂 窝网络, 即在 UE启动后, 接入该蜂窝网络之前, 该 UE没有连接到任何蜂窝 网絡。
进一步的, 当确定上述 UE已经接入上述蜂窝网络之后, 若根据预设规则 检测到存在至少一个允许接入的其他接入网可用,则该 UE请求接入该至少一 个其他接入网; 其中, 上述其他接入网为蜂窝网络(如 3GPP网络)或者非蜂 窝网络(如 wifi网络或者 WiMax网络); 上述预设规则为根据具体应用场景 预先设置的规则, 该预设规则包括选择接入网的优先级规则或信道质量门限 等。
可选的, 当 UE接入上述至少一个其他接入网之后, 获取对应于该至少一 个其他接入网的 IP地址; 其中, 当上述其他接入网为蜂窝网络时, IP地址由 该蜂窝网络对应的接入网设备分配, 当上述其他接入网为非蜂窝网络时, IP 地址由该非蜂窝网络对应的核心网设备或接入网设备分配。
在上述过程中, UE拥有首次接入的蜂窝网络对应的接入网设备分配的 IP 地址, 以及对应于至少一个其他接入网的 IP地址。 例如, UE启动后, 首先 接入一蜂窝网络,且该蜂窝网络对应的接入网设备为 UE分配了第一 IP地址, 在接入上述蜂窝网络之后,上述 UE根据预设规则确定存在第一其他接入网和 第二其他接入网均为可用的接入网时, UE获取对应于该第一其他接入网的 IP 地址为第二 IP地址,以及 UE获取对应于第二其他接入网的 IP地址为第三 IP 地址, 此时, 上述 UE拥有三个 IP地址。
步骤 410: 将上述 IP地址通知给应用服务器。
本发明实施例中, UE将自身拥有的 IP地址均上报至应用服务器; 其中, 上述应用服务器可以为过顶 (Over The Top, OTT )服务器, 即应用服务器为
用于对终端移动性和业务质量等进行管理的服务器, 如应用服务器可以为各 个服务商提供的服务器。通常,每当 UE接入一个新的接入网或断开与一个接 入网的连接时, 即向应用服务器上报一次该 UE自身拥有的 IP地址, 以使应 用服务器知道自身可以通过哪些 IP地址为 UE提供数据传输服务。
可选的, UE将自身拥有的 IP地址通知给应用服务器的同时, 将用户身 份标识通知给应用服务器, 以使该应用服务器根据上述用户身份标识核实用 户身份是否合法; 其中, 上述用户身份标识可以为对应于上述应用服务器的 用户名以及密码等信息, 还可以为全球用户识别卡 (University Subscribe Identity Module, USIM ); 当接入网为蜂窝网络时, UE可以通过附着请求消 息承载上述所有 IP地址和用户身份标识发送至应用服务器, 当接入网为非蜂 窝网络时, UE可以通过注册请求消息承载上述所有 IP地址和用户身份标识 发送至应用服务器。 其中, 接入网设备标识为该接入网设备的 IP地址或其它 标识。
步骤 420: 接收应用服务器通过上述 IP地址提供的数据传输服务。
本发明实施例中, 当应用服务器核实上述 UE对应的用户身份合法时,应 用服务器将向 UE提供各种数据传输服务, 如网页浏览服务、 视频播放服务、 通话服务, 以及收发短信服务等; 可选的, 当 UE仅拥有一个 IP地址时, 该 UE接收应用服务器通过上述 IP地址提供的数据传输服务,当 UE拥有至少两 个 IP地址时, 该 UE可以接收应用服务器分别通过上述一个或者至少两个 IP 地址提供的数据传输服务。例如, 当 UE拥有三个 IP地址时, 即第一 IP地址, 第二 IP地址和第三 IP地址, 应用服务器可以同时通过上述第一 IP地址、 第 二 IP地址和第三 IP地址向 UE提供数据传输服务,即应用服务器将每一个 IP 地址均作为一个链路的目的地址,可以通过最多三条链路为 UE提供数据传输 服务。
进一步的, 对应于上述 UE向应用服务器发送的注册请求消息, 当应用服 务器核实上述 UE对应的用户身份合法时, 向上述 UE反馈注册成功消息。 其 中,该注册成功消息中可以包含应用服务器与 UE进行通信时所使用的密钥和
/或指示 UE进行自主链路扫描、 增减的策略信息; 对应于上述 UE向应用服 务器发送的附着请求消息, 应用服务器可以通过新建信令或者现有协议中规 定的信令承载应用服务器与 UE进行通信时所使用的密钥和 /或指示 UE进行 自主链路扫描、 增减的策略信息; 此外, UE进行自主链路扫描、 增减的策略 信息还可以在该 UE 本地预先配置, 该自主链路扫描、 增减的策略信息包括 UE 进行接入网扫描所满足的条件 (如根据预设空口信道质量门限值进行扫 描), 以及 UE所接入的接入网应当满足的条件。
UE基于上述预先配置的或者应用服务器下发的自主链路扫描、 增减的策 略信息, 进行链路增减; 当在 UE进行链路增减的过程中使得该 UE拥有的任 意一 IP地址发生变化时, 如增加新的 IP地址或者删除已有的 IP地址, UE均 需要将链路变更情况通知给应用服务器, 即 UE需要将新增加的 IP地址或者 已删除的 IP地址通知给应用服务器。 其中, 当 UE删除已有的 IP地址时, 该 UE进行链路减少的具体过程包括:当 UE确定自身拥有的所有 IP地址中存在 任意一 IP地址为不再使用状态时, 断开与该任意一 IP地址对应的接入网; 并 将该任意一 IP地址和该任意一 IP地址对应的接入网被断开的信息以显式方式 或者隐式方式通知给应用服务器, 以使应用服务器不再使用上述任意一 IP地 址为本地提供数据传输服务; 其中, IP地址为不再使用状态即为 UE接收到 对应接入网发送的连接释放命令或 UE检测到在对应接入网的连接发生失败。
UE进行链路增加的具体过程包括: 当 UE根据自主链路扫描、 增减的策略信 息接入新的接入网 (如独立的 wifi网络) 时, 则该 UE获取对应于该新的接 入网的 IP地址, 并将该 IP地址通知给应用服务器。
进一步的, 当应用服务器接收到 UE发送的上述处于不再使用状态的 IP 地址以及该 IP地址对应的接入网被断开的信息, 或者新增的 IP地址时, 对该 UE发送的上述信息进行处理, 生成链路更新确认消息发送至 UE; UE接收到 该链路更新确认消息后,即可确定应用服务器已经获知 UE当前可用接入网对 应的 IP地址。
可选的, 上述 UE进行链路增减的过程可以由宏基站控制。 当由宏基站控
制时, 若 UE已经接入上述宏基站, 且该 UE自主增加了该宏基站覆盖下的某 个接入点作为一条链路, 则上述某个接入点将 UE的接入信息通知给宏基站, 宏基站采用 MS A (多流聚合, Multiple Stream Aggregation )技术将上述某个 接入点作为一个分流站点为上述 UE提供数据传输服务, 由于该 UE的 IP地 址已经由该宏基站分配, 因此, 上述某个接入点不需要为该 UE分配一个新的 IP 地址。 这样, 上述某个接入点对应用服务器不可见, 宏基站分流部分下行 数据给上述某个接入点, 以及宏基站接收上述某个接入点的上行数据转发给 应用服务器。
釆用上述技术方案, 通过接入网设备为 UE分配 IP地址, 并由 UE 自主 进行链路增减, 从而保证了 UE在连接态时的业务连续性。
在上述过程中, UE接收应用服务器通过该 UE拥有的所有 IP地址提供的 数据传输服务, 此时的 UE与接入网为连接状态, 即 UE处于连接态; 当该 UE断开与所有接入网之间的连接后(包括接入网主动释放 UE的连接,或 UE 主动释放 UE的连接, 或 UE检测到连接失败而断开), 该 UE即处于空闲态, 此时, 该 UE接收其驻留 (Camp ) 的接入网对应接入网设备广播的跟踪区标 识; 其中, 每一个接入网设备均拥有自身所属的跟踪区 ( Track Area, TA ); 不同的接入网设备所属的跟踪区可以不同, 如接入网设备 1 所属的跟踪区为 TA1, 接入网设备 2所属的跟踪区为 TA2, 不同的接入网设备所属的跟踪区也 可以相同, 如接入网设备 1和接入网设备 2所属的跟踪区均为 TA1; —般情 况下, 3GPP网络的宏基站广播自身所属的跟踪区标识, 而宏基站控制下的接 入点设备(如 Pico设备, wifi设备等) 不广播自身所属的跟踪区标识, 针对 不受 3GPP网络的宏基站控制的独立 wifi设备, 若该独立 wifi设备在 3GPP 网络的宏基站覆盖范围内, 则该独立 wifi设备可以不广播自身所属的跟踪区 标识, 以减少寻呼消息的发送量。
可选的, UE将跟踪区标识通知给应用服务器, 以使应用服务器根据该跟 踪区标识确定寻呼上述 UE时对应的一个或多个接入网设备标识。其中, 上述 跟踪区域标识可以在 UE 将所有接入网被断开的信息通知给应用服务器的同
时, 通知给应用服务器。 UE可以通过心跳消息将不再使用的 IP地址和该 IP 地址对应的接入网被断开的信息,以及 UE接收到的跟踪区标识通知给应用服 务器。
进一步的, 当 UE处于空闲态时, 若由一个跟踪区移动至另一个跟踪区, 则该 UE向应用服务器发起跟踪区更新过程, 以向应用服务器上报该 UE更新 后的跟踪区标识和 /或接入网设备标识。 可选的, UE可以周期性地通过心跳消 息向应用服务器上报该 UE当前时刻对应的跟踪区标识。
可选的, 应用服务器在本地保存一个映射关系表, 该映射关系表中包含 跟踪区标识与接入网设备标识之间的映射关系。 接入网设备标识为该接入网 设备的 IP地址或其它标识。 当接收到处于空闲态 UE的呼入请求时, 应用服 务器即从上述映射关系表中查找上述 UE对应的一个或多个接入网设备标识, 并向该一个或多个接入网设备标识分别对应的接入网设备发送寻呼消息; UE 接收到上述寻呼消息后, 接入上述一个或多个接入网设备对应的接入网, 即 将自身状态更改为连接态。
可选的, 当 UE位于宏基站覆盖范围下时,应用服务器可以仅向宏基站发 送寻呼消息即可, 无须向该宏基站管辖下的接入点设备发送寻呼消息, 从而 减少了信令交互, 节约了系统开销。
采用上述技术方案,通过应用服务器管理 UE对应的跟踪区标识, 以及跟 踪区标识与各个接入网设备标识之间的映射关系, 当 UE处于空闲态时,应用 服务器能够根据 UE对应的跟踪区标识,以及跟踪区标识与各个接入网设备标 识之间的映射关系表, 寻呼到 UE, 使 UE从空闲态切换至连接态, 从而实现 了 UE的外部呼入可达性。
可选的, 参阅图 5所示, 为本发明实施例中 UE对应的协议栈示意图, 其 中, 该 UE中的汇聚层为 TCP层, 对应于不同链路的各支路的最高协议层为 用户报文协议 ( User Datagram Protocol, UDP )。 当应用服务器为 UE提供的 数据传输服务为下行数据传输服务时, UE接收应用服务器通过至少两个 IP 地址提供的数据传输服务的过程, 具体包括: UE接收应用服务器通过至少两
个 IP地址作为目的 IP地址发送的下行数据; 将不同目的 IP地址的下行数据 分别发送至本地不同的 IP/ UDP实体; 其中, 一个 IP/UDP实体对应一个 IP 地址; 由所有接收到上述下行数据的 IP/UDP实体分别处理对应 IP地址的下 行数据; 并将该 IP/UDP实体处理后的下行数据汇聚到本地的多路径传输控制 协议(Multi-Path TCP, MPTCP ) 实体后, 当 MPTCP实体接收到上述全部或 者部分 IP/TCP实体分别发送的处理后的下行数据时, 若满足用户设备的预设 条件, 则由该 MPTCP实体向应用服务器发送第一成功接收确认信息。 例如, 当 UE拥有第一 IP地址和第二 IP地址时, UE接收到应用服务器同时通过第 一 IP地址和第二 IP地址发送的下行数据时, 将第一 IP地址对应的第一下行 数据发送至该 UE本地的第一 IP/UDP实体,将第二 IP地址对应的第二下行数 据发送至该 UE本地的第二 IP/UDP实体, 由 UE本地的第一 IP/UDP实体处 理第一下行数据, 以及由 UE本地的第二 IP/UDP实体处理第二下行数据, UE 本地的第一 IP/UDP实体将处理后的第一下行数据发送至该 UE本地的 MPTCP 实体, 以及 UE本地的第二 IP/UDP 实体将处理后的第二下行数据发送至该 UE本地的 MPTCP实体。
可选的, 上述不同 IP/UDP实体处理后的下行数据为喷泉码数据块。 可选的, 当满足用户设备的预设条件时, 由 UE本地的 MPTCP实体向应 用服务器发送第一成功接收确认信息的过程, 具体包括: 当 UE确定成功解码 一个或多个喷泉码源数据块时, 向应用服务器发送第一 MPTCP状态报告; 或 者, UE按照预设周期向应用服务器发送第一 MPTCP状态报告; 其中, 该第 一 MPTCP 状态报告包含一个或多个喷泉码源数据块标识和是否成功接收该 一个或者多个喷泉码源数据块的信息; 或者, 针对一个或多个喷泉码源数据 块分别已经成功接收到的喷泉码数据块的数量; 或对一个或多个喷泉码源数 据块还需要分别成功接收的喷泉码数据块的数量; 上述喷泉码数据块由对喷 泉码源数据块进行编码生成。在上述过程中, 除将 UE确定成功解码一个或多 个喷泉码源数据块作为触发条件外, 也可以预先设置其他触发条件, 当该预 先设置的触发条件满足时, UE向应用服务器发送第一 MPTCP状态报告, 具
体的触发条件由用户根据具体情况决定。 在上述过程中, 第一成功接收确认 消息即为第一 MPTCP状态报告。
进一步的, 应用服务器根据上述第一 MPTCP状态报告, 决定需要向 UE 传输的喷泉码数据块。
可选的, 若 UE对应的任意一条链路上传输下行数据速度低于预设阈值, 则应用服务器中的 MPTCP 实体将停止或降低分流到该任意一链路传输的下 行数据;将更多的下行数据分流到 UE对应的所有链路中除该任意一条链路之 外的剩余任意一条或者多条链路上传输。
釆用上述技术方案, 对 UE的协议栈进行修改, 当 UE成功解码至少一个 喷泉码源数据后, 才向应用服务器发送第一成功接收确认信息, 从而避免了 现有 UE中各支路的最高协议层为 TCP层时由 TCP层的拥塞控制机制造成的 当传输成功一个数据包即需要进行 TCP ACK反馈的问题, 有效提高了无线通 信网络的下行吞吐量, 提供了总体传输速率, 有效节约了 UE的能耗; 并且, 采用喷泉码技术进行下行数据的传输时, 可以将喷泉码数据由传输速度较低 的链路分流至传输速度较高的链路, 无须在分流至的链路上重新传输分流前 链路上已经传输但没有成功的下行数据, 从而大大降低了应用服务器在链路 间分流时数据处理的复杂度。
可选的, 参阅图 5所示的 UE对应的协议栈示意图, 当数据传输服务为上 行数据传输服务时, UE接收应用服务器通过至少两个 IP地址提供的数据传 输服务的过程, 具体包括: UE将上行数据发送至本地的 MPTCP实体进行处 理, 并获取上行数据中携带的至少两个 IP地址, 将该至少两个 IP地址均作为 源 IP地址; 由该 MPTCP实体将处理后的上行数据,按照一定的分流算法(如 根据不同 UDP/IP实体所对应链路的数据传输速率确定分流比例)分别发送至 UE中不同的 UDP/IP实体进行处理; 由不同的 UDP/IP实体将处理后的上行 数据通过相应的 IP地址对应的接入网发送至应用服务器; UE接收应用服务 器的 MPTCP 实体发送的第二成功接收确认信息。 例如, 当 UE拥有第一 IP 地址和第二 IP地址时, UE通过第一 IP地址和第二 IP地址作为源 IP地址向
应用服务器发送上行数据, 由 UE本地的 MPTCP实体对上行数据进行处理, 并将处理后的上行数据根据分流算法分别发送至该 UE本地的第一 UDP/IP实 体以及第二 UDP/IP实体, 由 UE中的第一 UDP/IP实体处理上行数据中的第 一上行数据, 以及由 UE中的第二 UDP/IP实体处理上行数据中的第二上行数 据;由 UE中的第一 UDP/IP实体将源地址为第一 IP地址的第一上行数据通过 第一 IP地址对应的接入网发送至应用服务器, 以及由 UE中的第二 UDP/IP 实体将源地址为第二 IP地址的第二上行数据通过第二 IP地址对应的接入网发 送至应用服务器。
在上述过程中, 当应用服务器确定满足应用服务器的预设条件时, 向 UE 反馈第二成功接收确认信息。
可选的, 上述发送至不同的 UDP/IP 实体处理的上行数据为喷泉码数据 块。
可选的, UE接收应用服务器的 MPTCP实体发送的第二成功接收确认信 息的过程,具体包括: UE接收应用服务器的 MPTCP实体发送的第二 MPTCP 状态报告; 其中, 该第二 MPTCP状态报告包含一个或多个喷泉码源数据块标 识和是否成功接收的信息; 或者, 针对一个或多个喷泉码源数据块分别已经 成功接收到的喷泉码数据块的数量; 或对一个或多个喷泉码源数据块还分别 需要成功接收的喷泉码数据块的数量; 上述喷泉码数据块由对喷泉码源数据 块进行编码生成。 在上述过程中, 第二成功接收确认消息即为第二 MPTCP状 态报告。
进一步的, UE根据上述第二 MPTCP状态报告, 决定需要向应用服务器 传输的喷泉码数据块。
可选的, 若 UE对应的任意一条链路上传输上行数据速度低于预设阈值, 则 UE本地的 MPTCP实体将停止或降低分流给该任意一链路的上行数据, 并 将更多的上行数据分流到 UE 对应的所有链路中除该任意一条链路之外的剩 余任意一条或者多条链路上传输。
采用上述技术方案, 通过喷泉码技术进行上行数据的传输时, 可以将喷
泉码数据由传输速度较低的链路分流至传输速度较高的链路, 无须在分流至 的链路上重新传输分流前链路上已经传输成功的数据, 也无须在分流至的链 路上重新传输分流前链路上已经传输但没有成功的上行数据, 从而大大降低 了 UE汇聚层在链路间分流时的数据处理复杂度。
可选的, 在应用服务器向 UE传输喷泉码数据块之前, UE向应用服务器 发送用户设备的支持喷泉码能力信息; 并接收应用服务器根据该用户设备的 支持喷泉码能力信息生成的用户设备的喷泉码编解码相关的配置参数; 其中, 该用户设备的喷泉码编解码相关的配置参数包括以下选项中的一项或者任意 项的组合: 一个喷泉码源数据块中包含的喷泉码数据块的数目, 一个喷泉码 数据块所占用存储空间的大小,第一 MPTCP状态报告发送周期,第一 MPTCP 状态报告触发条件等信息,用户设备的支持喷泉码能力信息包括 UE是否具备 生成喷泉码数据块的能力, 以及 UE是否具备解码喷泉码数据块的能力。
基于上述技术方案, 参阅图 6 所示, 本发明实施例中, 基站与无线通信 网絡中各个设备之间的通信流程包括:
步骤 600: 当确定 UE接入本地后, 为该 UE分配 IP地址。
本发明实施例中, 当接收到 UE发送的接入请求之后,接入网设备根据该 接入请求, 令 UE接入本地; 当确定该 UE接入接入网设备之后, 该接入网设 备为该 UE分配 IP地址; 其中, 上述接入网设备为蜂窝网接入网设备, 该接 入网设备对应的接入网为蜂窝网络。
进一步的, 在接入网设备为上述 UE分配 IP地址之前, 向应用服务器发 送请求消息; 其中, 该请求消息包含接入网设备标识、 跟踪区标识和公共陆 地移动网 ( Public Land Mobile Network, PLMN )标识中的至少一种; 上述接 入网设备接收应用服务器根据上述请求消息生成的响应消息; 其中, 该响应 消息用于确认双方通言初始化完成。
可选的, 上述接入网设备发送至应用服务器的请求消息可以釆用现有 3GPP标准协议中的消息进行承载, 如 S1接口建立请求( SI setup request )消 息等, 采用现有协议中的消息, 无须重新定义新的信令, 降低了系统实现的
复杂度。
步骤 610: 将上述 IP地址发送至 UE, 令该 UE将该 IP地址发送至应用 服务器, 并接收应用服务器通过上述 IP地址提供的数据传输服务。
本发明实施例中, 接入网设备还将自身所属的跟踪区标识上报至应用服 务器, 令应用服务器将该跟踪区标识以及接入网设备标识存储至应用服务器 本地保存的映射关系表中。 当 UE断开与所有接入网的连接之后,接入网设备 广播自身所属的跟踪区标识,令该 UE将接收到的、接入网设备发送的跟踪区 标识发送至应用服务器。
釆用上述技术方案, 通过接入网设备为 UE分配 IP地址, UE通过接入网 设备直接连接至应用服务器,由应用服务器通过该接入网设备为 UE提供数据 传输服务, 在保证无线通信网络通信质量的同时, 实现了无线通信网络的超 扁平化, 有效较少了无线通信网络中各个设备之间的数据传输时延; 此外, 当 UE处于空闲态时, UE将接入网设备广播的跟踪区标识发送至应用服务器, 应用服务器能够根据 UE对应的跟踪区标识,以及跟踪区标识与各个接入网设 备标识之间的映射关系, 寻呼到 UE, 使 UE从空闲态切换至连接态, 从而实 现了 UE的外部呼入可达性。
基于上述技术方案, 参阅图 7 所示, 本发明实施例中, 应用服务器与无 线通信网络中各个设备之间的通信流程包括:
步骤 700: 接收 UE发送的 IP地址。
本发明实施例中, 应用服务器接收上述接入网设备发送的请求消息; 其 中, 该请求消息包含接入网设备标识、 跟踪区标识和 PLMN标识中的至少一 种; 应用服务器根据请求消息生成响应消息发送至接入网设备; 其中, 该响 应消息用于确认双方通信初始化完成。 可选的, 应用服务器发送至上述接入 网设备的响应消息可以采用现有 3GPP标准协议中的消息进行承载,如 UE发 送至应用服务器的请求消息为 S 1接口建立请求 ( S 1 setup request ) 消息时, 则应用服务器发送至 UE的响应消息为 S1接口建立响应 (SI setup response ) 消息等。 采用现有协议中的消息, 无须重新定义新的信令, 降低了系统实现
的复杂度。
当 UE启动之后, 扫描可使用的接入网, 当检测到符合预设规则的允许接 入的接入网后, 接入该符合预设规则的允许接入的接入网, 并获取接入网对 应的接入网设备分配的 IP地址; 其中, 上述预设规则为根据具体应用场景预 先设置的规则, 该预设规则包括选择接入网的优先级规则或信道质量门限等; 上述接入网为蜂窝网络。
可选的, UE确定本地已经接入上述接入网之后, 若根据预设规则检测到 存在至少一个允许接入的其他接入网可用,则该 UE请求接入该至少一个其他 接入网, 并获取对应于至少一个其他接入网的 IP地址; 其中, 上述其他接入 网为蜂窝网络或者非蜂窝网络; 上述预设规则为根据具体应用场景预先设置 的规则, 该预设规则包括选择接入网的优先级规则或信道质量门限等。
进一步的, 应用服务器接收 UE发送的 IP地址的同时, 接收该 UE发送 的用户身份标识,并根据该用户身份标识核实上述 UE对应的用户身份是否合 法。 其中, 上述用户身份标识可以为对应于上述应用服务器的用户名以及密 码等信息, 还可以为 USIM; 当接入网为蜂窝网络时, UE可以通过附着请求 消息承载上述所有 IP 地址和用户身份标识, 当接入网为非蜂窝网络时, UE 可以通过注册请求消息承载上述所有 IP地址和用户身份标识。
可选的,每当 UE接入一个新的接入网或断开与一个接入网的连接时, 即 向应用服务器上报一次该 UE自身拥有的 IP地址, 以使应用服务器知道自身 可以通过哪些 IP地址为 UE提供数据传输服务。
步骤 710: 通过上述 IP地址为上述 UE提供数据传输服务。
本发明实施例中, 由于 UE可以拥有至少一个 IP地址, 因此, 当 UE拥 有一个 IP地址时, 应用服务器通过该唯一的 IP地址为上述 UE提供数据传输 服务; 当 UE拥有至少两个 IP地址时, 应用服务器可以分别通过该至少两个 IP地址为上述 UE提供数据传输服务。
可选的, 对应于上述 UE向应用服务器发送的注册请求消息, 当应用服务 器核实上述 UE对应的用户身份合法时, 向上述 UE反馈注册成功消息。 当应
用服务器核实上述 UE对应的用户身份合法时应用服务器将向 UE提供各种数 据传输服务, 如网页浏览服务、 视频播放服务、 通话服务, 以及收发短信服 务等。其中, 该注册成功消息中可以包含应用服务器与 UE进行通信时所使用 的密钥和 /或指 UE进行自主链路扫描、 增减的策略信息; 对应于上述 UE向 应用服务器发送附着请求消息, 应用服务器可以通过新建信令或者现有协议 中规定的信令承载应用服务器与 UE进行通信时所使用的密钥和 /或指示 UE 进行自主链路扫描、 增减的策略信息; 此外, 该 UE进行自主链路扫描、 增减 的策略信息还可以在该 UE本地预先配置获得, 该自主链路扫描、增减的策略 信息包括 UE进行接入网扫描所满足的条件(如根据预设空口信道质量门限值 进行扫描), 以及 UE所接入的接入网应当满足的条件。
可选的, UE基于上述预先配置的或者应用服务器下发的自主链路扫描、 增减的策略信息, 进行链路增减; 当在 UE进行链路增减的过程中使得该 UE 拥有的任意一 IP地址发生变化时, UE均需要将链路变更情况通知给应用服 务器。
进一步的, 在上述 UE进行链路增减的过程中, 当该 UE对应的任意一 IP 地址为不再使用状态时, 应用服务器接收该 UE发送的上述任意一 IP地址以 及该任意一 IP地址对应的接入网被断开的信息; 应用服务器不使用该任意一 IP地址以及该任意一 IP地址对应的接入网为上述 UE提供数据传输服务。 其 中, IP地址为不再使用状态即为 UE接收到对应接入网发送的连接释放命令 或 UE检测到在对应接入网的连接发生失败。 此外, 当应用服务器接收到 UE 发送的链路变更情况时, 该应用服务器可以向 UE发送链路更新确认消息, 以 使 UE确定应用服务器已经接收到该 UE上报的链路变更。
进一步的, 接收 UE发送的所有接入网被断开的信息的同时, 接收该 UE 发送的跟踪区标识。 当 UE处于空闲态时, 应用服务器接收到 UE发送的跟踪 区标识之后, 若确定寻呼上述 UE, 则根据接收到的跟踪区标识, 在本地保存 的映射表中查询上述跟踪区标识对应的一个或多个接入网设备标识; 并向该 一个或多个接入网设备标识分别对应的接入网设备发送寻呼消息。 其中, 该
映射关系表中包含跟踪区标识与接入网设备标识之间的映射关系; 接入网设 备标识为该接入网设备的 IP地址或其它标识。
进一步的, 当 UE处于空闲态时, 若由一个跟踪区移动至另一个跟踪区, 则该 UE向应用服务器发起跟踪区更新过程, 以向应用服务器上报该 UE更新 后的跟踪区标识和 /或接入网设备标识。 接入网设备标识为该接入网设备的 IP 地址或基站 ID或其它标识。 可选的, 应用服务器可以周期性地通过心跳消息 接收 UE发送的该 UE当前时刻对应的跟踪区标识。
在上述过程中, 当 UE接入多个接入网时,每一个接入网对应的接入网设 备均拥有所属的跟踪区; 参阅图 8a所示, 不同的接入网设备所属的跟踪区可 以不同, 如接入网设备 1所属的跟踪区为 TA1, 接入网设备 2所属的跟踪区 为 TA2, 参阅图 8b所示, 不同的接入网设备所属的跟踪区也可以相同, 如接 入网设备 1和接入网设备 2所属的跟踪区均为 TA1。 当不同的接入网设备所 属的跟踪区相同时, 若应用服务器需要寻呼 UE, 需要向该 UE的跟踪区标识 对应的每一个接入网设备均发送寻呼消息, 采用该技术方案, 由于多个接入 网设备所属跟踪区相同, 因此, 减少了跟踪区更新次数, 从而节约了 UE的能 耗; 当不同的接入网设备所属的跟踪区不同时, 若应用服务器需要寻呼 UE, 需要向该 UE 的跟踪区标识对应的接入网设备发送寻呼消息, 采用该技术方 案, 应用服务器仅需要向 UE的跟踪区标识对应的接入网设备发送寻呼消息, 信令交互相次数较于不同的接入网设备所属的跟踪区相同时的信令交互次数 较少。
可选的, 当 UE位于宏基站覆盖范围下时,应用服务器可以仅向宏基站发 送寻呼消息即可, 无须向该宏基站管辖下的接入点设备发送寻呼消息, 从而 减少了信令交互, 节约了系统开销。
采用上述技术方案,通过应用服务器管理 UE对应的跟踪区标识, 以及跟 踪区标识与各个接入网设备标识之间的映射关系, 当 UE处于空闲态时,应用 服务器能够根据本地保存的 UE对应的跟踪区标识,以及跟踪区标识与各个接 入网设备标识之间的映射关系表,寻呼到 UE,使 UE从空闲态切换至连接态,
从而实现了 UE的外部呼入可达性。
可选的, 参阅图 9 所示, 为本发明实施例中应用服务器对应的协议栈示 意图, 该应用服务器中的汇聚层为 TCP层, 对应于不同链路的各支路的最高 协议层为 UDP。 当数据传输服务为下行数据传输时, 应用服务器通过至少两 个 IP地址为 UE提供数据传输服务的过程, 具体包括: 应用服务器将下行数 据发送至本地的 MPTCP实体处理; 由上述 MPTCP实体将处理后的下行数据 根据分流算法(如根据不同 UDP/IP实体所对应链路的数据传输速率确定分流 比例 ) 分别发送至应用服务器中不同的 UDP/IP实体处理; 由不同 UDP/IP实 体处理后的下行数据通过相应的 IP地址对应的接入网发送至上述 UE; 应用 服务器接收该 UE 的 MPTCP 实体发送的第一成功接收确认信息。 例如, 当 UE拥有第一 IP地址和第二 IP地址时,应用服务器通过第一 IP地址和第二 IP 地址作为目的 IP地址向 UE发送下行数据, 由应用服务器中的 MPTCP实体 对上述下行数据进行处理, 并将处理后的下行数据根据分流算法分别发送至 该应用服务器中的第一 UDP/IP实体和该应用服务器中的第二 UDP/IP实体, 由应用服务器中的第一 UDP/IP实体处理下行数据中的第一下行数据, 以及由 应用服务器中的第二 UDP/IP实体处理下行数据中的第二下行数据; 由应用服 务器中的第一 UDP/IP实体将目的 IP地址为第一 IP地址的第一下行数据通过 第一 IP 地址对应的接入网发送至应用服务器, 以及由应用服务器中的第二 UDP/IP实体将目的 IP地址为第二 IP地址的第二下行数据通过第二 IP地址对 应的接入网发送至 UE。
可选的,上述发送至应用服务器中不同的 UDP/IP实体处理的下行数据为 喷泉码数据块。
可选的, 应用服务器接收 UE的 MPTCP实体发送的第一成功接收确认信 息的过程,具体包括:应用服务器接收 UE的 MPTCP实体发送的第一 MPTCP 状态报告; 其中, 该第一 MPTCP状态报告包含一个或多个喷泉码源数据块标 识和是否成功接收的信息; 或者, 针对一个或多个喷泉码源数据块分别已经 成功接收到的喷泉码数据块的数量; 或对一个或多个喷泉码源数据块还分别
需要成功接收的喷泉码数据块的数量; 上述喷泉码数据块由对喷泉码源数据 块进行编码生成。 在上述过程中, 第一成功接收确认消息即为第一 MPTCP状 态报告。
进一步的, 应用服务器根据上述第一 MPTCP状态报告, 决定需要向 UE 传输的喷泉码数据块。
可选的, 若 UE对应的任意一条链路上传输下行数据速度低于预设阈值, 则应用服务器 MPTCP 实体将停止或降低分流到该任意一条链路传输的下行 数据,并将更多的下行数据分流到 UE对应的所有链路中除该任意一条链路之 外的剩余任意一条或者多条链路上传输。
采用上述技术方案, 采用喷泉码技术进行下行数据的传输, 可以将喷泉 码数据由传输速度较低的链路分流至传输速度较高的链路, 无须在分流至的 链路上重新传输分流前链路上已经传输成功的数据, 也无须在分流至的链路 上重新传输分流前链路上已经传输但没有成功的下行数据, 从而大大降低了 应用服务器在链路间分流时的数据处理复杂度。
可选的, 参阅图 9 所示的应用服务器对应的协议栈示意图, 当数据传输 服务为上行数据传输时, 应用服务器通过至少两个 IP地址为 UE提供数据传 输服务的过程, 具体包括: 应用服务器接收 UE通过至少两个 IP地址作为源 IP地址发送的上行数据; 将不同源 IP地址的上行数据分别发送至本地不同的 IP/UDP实体; 其中, 一个 IP/UDP实体对应一个 IP地址; 由所有接收到对应 于不同 IP地址上行数据的 IP/UDP实体分别处理对应的上行数据, 并将上述 IP/UDP实体处理后的上行数据汇聚到本地的 MPTCP实体; 当满足应用服务 器的预设条件时, 由应用服务器中的 MPTCP实体向上述 UE发送第二成功接 收确认信息。 例如, 当 UE拥有第一 IP地址和第二 IP地址时, 应用服务器同 时通过第一 IP地址和第二 IP地址向 UE发送上行数据时, 将第一 IP地址对 应的第一上行数据发送至该应用服务器中的第一 IP/UDP实体, 将第二 IP地 址对应的第二上行数据发送至该应用服务器中的第二 IP/UDP实体, 由应用服 务器中的第一 IP/UDP 实体处理第一上行数据, 以及由应用服务器中的第二
IP/UDP实体处理第二上行数据, 应用服务器中的第一 IP/UDP实体将处理后 的第一上行数据发送至该应用服务器中的 MPTCP实体,以及应用服务器中的 第二 IP/UDP实体将处理后的第二上行数据发送至该应用服务器中的 MPTCP 实体。
可选的,上述应用服务器中不同的 IP/UDP实体处理后的上行数据为喷泉 码数据块。
可选的, 当满足应用服务器的预设条件时, 由应用服务器中的 MPTCP实 体向 UE发送第二成功接收确认信息的过程, 具体包括: 当应用服务器确定成 功解码一个或多个喷泉码源数据块时, 向 UE发送第二 MPTCP状态报告; 或 者, 应用服务器按照预设周期向 UE发送第二 MPTCP状态报告; 其中, 该第 二 MPTCP 状态报告包含一个或多个喷泉码源数据块标识和是否成功接收上 述一个或者多个喷泉码源数据块的信息; 或对一个或多个喷泉码源数据块分 别成功接收到多少个喷泉码数据块的信息; 或对一个或多个喷泉码源数据块 还需要分别成功接收多少个喷泉码数据块的信息; 上述喷泉码数据块由对喷 泉码源数据块进行编码生成。 在上述过程中, 除将应用服务器确定成功解码 一个或多个喷泉码源数据块作为触发条件外, 也可以预先设置其他触发条件, 当该触发条件满足时, 应用服务器向 UE发送第一 MPTCP状态报告, 具体的 触发条件由用户根据具体情况决定。 在上述过程中, 第二成功接收确认消息 即为第二 MPTCP状态报告。
进一步的, UE根据上述第二 MPTCP状态报告, 决定需要向应用服务器 传输的喷泉码数据块。
可选的, 若 UE对应的任意一条链路上传输上行数据速度低于预设阈值, 则 UE本地的 MPTCP实体将停止或降低分流给该任意一链路的上行数据, 并 将更多的上行数据分流到 UE 对应的所有链路中除该任意一条链路之外的剩 余任意一条或者多条链路上传输。
釆用上述技术方案,对应用服务器的协议栈进行修改, 当 UE成功解码至 少一个喷泉码源数据后, 才向应用服务器发送第二成功接收确认信息, 从而
避免了现有应用服务器中各支路的最高协议层为 TCP层时由 TCP层的拥塞控 制机制造成的当传输成功一个数据包即需要进行 TCP AC 反馈的问题, 有效 提高了无线通信网络的吞吐量, 提供了总体传输速率, 有效节约了应用服务 器的能耗; 并且, 采用喷泉码技术进行上行数据的传输时, 可以将喷泉码数 据块由传输速度较低的链路分流至传输速度较高的链路, 无须在分流至的链 路上重新传输分流前链路上已经传输成功的数据, 也无须在分流至的链路上 重新传输分流前链路上已经传输但没有成功的上行数据, 从而大大降低了 UE 在链路间分流时的数据处理复杂度。
可选的, 在 UE 向应用服务器传输喷泉码数据块之前, 应用服务器向该 UE发送应用服务器的支持喷泉码能力信息; 并接收该 UE根据该应用服务器 的支持喷泉码能力信息生成的应用服务器的喷泉码编解码相关的配置参数。 其中, 该应用服务器的喷泉码编解码相关的配置参数包括以下选项中的一项 或者任意项的组合: 一个喷泉码源数据块中包含的喷泉码数据块的数目, 一 个喷泉码数据块所占用存储空间的大小, 第二 MPTCP状态报告发送周期, 第 二 MPTCP状态报告触发条件等信息,应用服务器的支持喷泉码能力信息包括 应用服务器是否具备生成喷泉码数据块的能力, 以及应用服务器是否具备解 码喷泉码数据块的能力。
在本发明技术方案中, 由于无线通信网络中可以包含多个应用服务器, 不同应用服务器可能对应于不同的服务商, 而不同服务商对应的应用服务器 之间存在不能互相通信的问题。 基于该技术问题, 可选的, 在对应于不同服 务商的应用服务器之间定义标准接口或签订互通协议, 实现对应于不同服务 商的应用服务器之间的通信。
在上述方案中,为 UE提供数据传输服务器的应用服务器与 UE注册的应 用服务器为同一个服务器。 进一步的, 在本发明技术方案中, 实际为 UE提供 数据传输服务的应用服务器可以为不同于 UE注册的运营商的应用服务器,它 既可以是其他运营商的应用服务器, 也可以是其他应用提供商的应用服务器, 在此称之为第三方应用服务器,相应地将 UE注册的运营商应用服务器称作注
册应用服务器。 这种情况下, 参阅图 10所示, 所有的控制信令仍然在注册应 用服务器和 UE之间进行传输, 如 IP地址增减的报告等; 而用户面数据传输 过程直接在第三方应用服务器和 UE之间进行,图 9所示的应用服务器对应的 协议栈就实现在第三方应用服务器中,相应的数据处理和 MPTCP状态报告也 在第三方应用服务器中实现。 UE与第三方应用服务器之间的数据传输直接通 过各可用接入网进行, 不需要通过注册应用服务器。 以上行数据传输为例, UE需要传输的上行数据到达接入网设备后, 不是先到达注册应用服务器再到 第三方应用服务器, 而是直接送往第三方应用服务器。 为了实现接入网设备 与第三方应用服务器之间的直接数据传输, 注册应用服务器需要作为控制桥 梁, 在可用的接入网增减时将接入网设备和第三方应用服务器两者的 IP地址 或 MAC地址等标识通知给接入网设备或第三方应用服务器,还要对两者进行 身份合法性进行验证操作, 同时注册应用服务器还可能向第三方应用服务器 提供业务质量相关的信息等。 终端用户通过注册应用服务器, 将其作为访问 入口, 来获得第三方应用服务器所提供的服务, 比如微博、 微信。
采用本发明技术方案,删除现有核心网中的 MME、 S-GW、 PDN-GW、 PCRF 和 HSS等设备,将应用服务器作为通信的门户,接入网通过互联网云直接连接 到应用服务器, 从而实现无线通信网络的超扁平化; 并且, 由应用服务器实 现计费、 认证等必要功能分配, 由接入网设备实现 IP地址分配功能, 通过全新 的功能划分和釆用喷泉码技术, 保证了无线通信网络中各个设备之间通信质 量以及 UE的移动性; 此外, 通过在发送端的 MPTCP实体和 TCP层采用喷泉码 技术, 使得在进行上行和下行数据传输时, 降低了数据分流流程以及数据处 理复杂度, 实现了 UE的业务连续性。
下面结合具体的应用场景, 详细介绍 UE、 接入网设备以及应用服务器之 间的通信流程。
应用场景一
基于本发明提供的超扁平无线通信网络, 参阅图 11所示, 以该无线通信 网络中的接入网为 LTE蜂窝网络为例, 详细介绍 UE接入应用服务器的流程:
步骤 1100: 接入网设备上电启动后向应用服务器发起 S 1接口建立过程。 本发明实施例中, 接入网设备可以重用现有 LTE协议中 eNB与 MME之间 的 S1接口建立请求 (SI setup Request ) 消息, 该 SI接口建立请求消息中包含 接入网设备标识, 接入网设备所属的跟踪区标识、 接入网设备所属的 PLMN 标识等中的至少一种。其中,上述接入网设备标识可以为接入网设备的 IP地址。
步骤 1110: 应用服务器基于上述接入网设备发起的 S1接口建立过程, 向 接入网设备反馈 S 1接口建立响应消息。
本发明实施例中, 应用服务器接收到接入网设备发送的 S1接口建立请求 消息后,根据该 S1接口建立请求消息, 向接入网设备反馈 S1接口建立响应(S1 Setup Response ) 消息。 其中, 应用服务器可以根据上述 S1接口建立请求消息 携带的接入网设备标识、 接入网设备所属的跟踪区标识、 接入网设备所属的 PLMN标识等信息, 为后续数据分流等决策提供输入。
步骤 1120: UE启动后向接入网设备发起随机接入过程。
本发明实施例中, UE启动后完成与接入网设备的下行同步以及获取到系 统信息后, 发起随机接入过程( Random Access Procedure )以接入接入网设备 对应的蜂窝网络; 其中, 上述系统信息为接入网设备可调用的带宽资源。
步骤 1130: UE向接入网设备发起 RRC连接建立过程。
本发明实施例中, 当上述接入网设备检测到存在可被调用的资源时, UE 向接入网设备发起无线资源控制 (Radio Resource Control, RRC )连接建立过 程 ( RRC connection setup procedure )。
可选的, RRC连接建立过程为三次握手过程: UE向接入网设备发送 RRC 连接请求( RRC connection request )消息; 接入网设备基于该 RRC连接请求消 息向 UE发送 RRC连接建立( RRC connection setup )消息; UE根据上述 RRC连 接建立消息向接入网设备反馈 RRC连接建立完毕 (RRC connection setup complete ) 消息, 完成 UE与接入网设备之间的 RRC连接建立。 接入网设备通 常在 RRC连接建立消息中携带分配给 UE的 IP地址。 接入网设备也可以通过其 他消息向 UE发送分配给该 UE的 IP地址,在此不做限定,但 UE确定是在向应用
服务器发起附着过程之前就获得了接入网设备分配的 IP地址。
步骤 1140: UE与基站建立 RRC连接之后, 向应用服务器发起附着过程。 本发明实施例中, UE向应用服务器发起附着过程( Attachment Procedure ), 该附着过程为三次握手过程: UE向应用服务器发送附着请求( Attach request ) 消息; 应用服务器根据该附着请求消息, 生成接受附着( Attach Accept ) 消息 发送至 UE; UE根据该接受附着消息向应用服务器反馈附着结束 (Attach complete ) 消息, 从而完成 UE在应用服务器上的附着过程。 其中, 该附着请 求消息可以由上述 RRC连接建立完毕 (RRC connection setup complete ) 消息 进行承载, 由接入网设备转发至应用服务器。
可选的, 在三次握手的附着过程, UE还向应用服务器发送接入网设备为 该 UE分配的 IP地址以及用户身份标识, 以使应用服务器根据上述用户身份标 识核实用户身份是否合法, 即由应用服务器对 UE进行认证; 其中, 上述用户 身份标识可以为对应于上述应用服务器的用户名以及密码等信息, 还可以为 USIM以及 SIM等信息, 上述认证方式可以采用 EAP-AKA方式。 除此之外, 上 述三次握手的附着过程中, 还可以包含 UE与应用服务器之间的密钥衍生、 分 发等过程。
步骤 1150: 接入网设备向 UE发起接入层安全激活过程。
本发明实施例中, 接入网设备获取预设的密钥或者应用服务器衍生的密 钥, 通过安全激活过程 ( AS Security Activation )将上述密钥或者与上述密钥 相关的参数(如 NCC, Next-Hop Chaining Counter, 下一跳链计数器)发送至 UE, 使 UE根据该密钥或者与密钥相关的参数进行通信。
在上述过程中, 步骤 1150与步骤 1140之间不分先后顺序, 即可以先执行 步骤 1140, 再执行步骤 1150, 也可以先执行步骤 1150, 再执行步骤 1140, 还可 以并行执行步骤 1140和步骤 1150。
步骤 1160: 接入网设备向 UE发起无线承载建立过程。
本发明实施例中, 接入网设备通过无线承载建立过程 ( RB establishment ) 为 UE在空口建立缺省承载, 以及配置相关的参数(如承载的逻辑信道优先级
等)。
基于上述 UE接入应用服务器的过程,参阅图 12所示为本发明实施例中 UE 接入应用服务器的信令交互示意图, 信令交互的具体过程为: 接入网设备向 应用服务器发送 SI setup Request; 应用服务器向接入网设备发送 SI Setup Response; UE向接入网设备发起 Random Access Procedure; UE向接入网设备 发起 RRC connection setup procedure; UE向应用月良务器发起 Attachment Procedure; 接入网设备向 UE发起 AS Security Activation; 接入网设备向 UE发 起 RB establishments
在上述 UE接入应用服务器的过程中,各个设备之间的信令交互均可以重 用 LTE现有协议中规定的信令, 以减少对 UE和接入网设备的影响。 在实际 应用中, 不限于使用上述实施例中给出的各种信令实现相应的功能, 还可以 使用 LTE协议中规定的其他消息实现上述功能, 在此不做限制。 此外, 在上 述 UE接入应用服务器的过程中, UE从启动开始接入到接入网设备对应的蜂 窝网络, 自步骤 1120开始的过程同样适用于 UE已经拥有一条本地至应用服 务器的链路, 而接入接入网设备对应的蜂窝网络作为另一条链路连接到应用 服务器时的接入场景,还适用于 UE由空闲态切换至连接态时、 由接入网设备 对应的蜂窝网连接到应用服务器的场景。
采用上述技术方案, 由接入网设备为 UE分配 IP地址, 由应用服务器通 过该接入网设备为 UE提供数据传输服务,在保证无线通信网络通信质量的同 时, 实现了无线通信网络的超扁平化, 有效较少了无线通信网络中各个设备 之间的数据传输时延。 应用场景二
基于本发明提供的超扁平无线通信网络, 参阅图 13所示, 以该无线通信 网絡中的接入网为 LTE蜂窝网络为例, 详细介绍处于连接态的 UE自主扫描、 增减链路的流程:
步骤 1300: UE启动后连接到一个接入网。
本发明实施例中, 当 UE启动之后, 扫描可使用的接入网, 当检测到符合 预设规则的允许接入的接入网后, 接入该符合预设规则的允许接入的接入网。 其中, 上述预设规则为根据具体应用场景预先设置的规则, 该预设规则包括 选择接入网的优先级规则或信道质量门限等, 该预设规则由协议规定、 或 UE 自身的配置信息规定或者由应用服务器对应的策略规定。
可选的, UE接入上述接入网后, 获得对应于该接入网的 IP地址。
步骤 1310: UE向应用服务器发起注册请求消息。
本发明实施例中, 当 UE接入的接入网为非蜂窝网络时, UE向应用服务器 发送注册请求消息, 该注册请求消息包含上述 UE拥有的所有 IP地址和用户身 份标识; 应用服务器将上述 UE拥有的 IP地址均作为目的 IP地址, 并分别通过 上述每一个 IP地址向 UE提供数据传输服务。
进一步的, UE在向应用服务器发起注册请求消息之前, 可以已经同时接 入多个接入网, 此时, 上述注册请求消息中可以包含多个 IP地址。
可选的, 应用服务器通过上述注册请求中携带的用户身份标识核实用户 身份是否合法, 其中, 接入网设备标识为该接入网设备的 IP地址或其它标识; 种数据传输服务, 如网页浏览服务、 视频播放服务、 通话服务, 以及收发短 信服务等。
步骤 1320: 应用服务器向 UE反馈注册成功消息。
本发明实施例中, 应用服务器在向 UE反馈注册成功消息; 其中, 该注册 成功消息中可以包含应用服务器与 UE进行通信时所使用的密钥和 /或指示 UE 进行自主链路扫描、 增减的策略信息。 此外, 该 UE进行自主链路扫描、 增减 的策略信息还可以在该 UE本地预先配置获得, 该自主链路扫描、 增减的策略 信息包括 UE进行接入网扫描所满足的条件 (如根据预设空口信道质量门限值 进行扫描), 以及 UE所接入的接入网应当满足的条件。
步骤 1330: UE自主增减链路并将链路更新情况通知给应用服务器。
本发明实施例中, 参阅图 14所示, UE基于上述自主链路扫描、 增减的策
略信息, 进行链路增减, 并将链路变更情况通知给应用服务器, 即 UE需要将 新增加的 IP地址或者已删除的 IP地址通知给应用服务器。
可选的, 当 UE删除已有的 IP地址时, 断开与该任意一 IP地址对应的接入 网;并将该已删除 IP地址和该已删除 IP地址对应的接入网被断开的信息以显式 方式或者隐式方式通知给应用服务器。
可选的, UE进行链路增加的具体过程包括: 当 UE根据自主链路扫描、 增 减的策略信息接入新的接入网 (如独立的 wifi网络) 时, 该 UE获取对应于该 新的接入网的 IP地址, 并将该 IP地址通知给应用服务器。
可选的, 上述 UE进行链路增减的过程可以由宏基站控制。 当由宏基站控 制时, 若 UE已经接入上述宏基站, 且该 UE自主增加了该宏基站覆盖下的某个 接入点作为一条链路, 则上述某个接入点将 UE的接入信息通知给宏基站, 宏 基站釆用 MSA技术将上述某个接入点作为一个分流站点为上述 UE提供数据 传输服务, 由于该 UE的 IP地址已经由该宏基站分配, 因此, 上述某个接入点 不需要为该 UE分配一个新的 IP地址。 这样, 上述某个接入点对应用服务器不 可见, 宏基站分流部分下行数据给上述某个接入点, 以及宏基站接收上述某 个接入点的上行数据转发给应用服务器。
步骤 1340: 应用服务器向 UE反馈链路更新确认消息。
本发明实施例中, 当应用服务器接收到 UE发送的上述不再使用的 IP地 址以及该 IP地址对应的接入网被断开的信息, 或者新增的 IP地址后, 对该 UE发送的信息进行处理, 生成链路更新确认消息发送至 UE; UE接收到该链 路更新确认消息后,即可确定应用服务器已经获知 UE当前可用接入网对应的 IP地址。
进一步的,当应用服务器接收到 UE通过显式方式或者隐式方式发送的已 删除 IP地址和该已删除 IP地址对应的接入网被断开的信息时,应用服务器不 再使用上述已删除 IP地址为上述 UE提供数据传输服务。
可选的, 应用 良务器启动本地的 MPTCP功能, 将 UE拥有的每一个 IP 地址均作为目的 IP地址,并分别通过每一个 IP地址为 UE提供数据传输服务。
采用上述技术方案, 通过接入网设备为 UE分配 IP地址, UE通过接入网设 备(如宏站 /微站 WiFi AP等) 直接连接至应用服务器, 实现了无线通信网络 的超扁平化; 并且, 接入网设备之间没有单独的切换流程, 由 UE中的 MPTCP 实体进行链路增减, 由 UE中的 APP实体实现用户 /业务间的差异性服务(如 TCP/IP参数差异化设置等), 从而保证了 UE在连接态时的业务连续性。 应用场景三
基于上述提供的超扁平无线通信网络, 参阅图 15所示, 以该无线通信网 络中的接入网为 LTE蜂窝网络为例, 详细介绍处于空闲态的 UE切换至连接 态的流程:
步骤 1500: UE在即将断开与所有接入网的连接之前, 向应用服务器发送 通知消息, 以通知应用服务器该 UE进入空闲态。
本发明实施例中,上述通知消息中还包含 UE当前驻留接入网对应的接入 网设备所属的跟踪区标识和 /或接入网设备标识; 其中, 该通知消息可以为心 跳消息。
可选的, 参阅图 8a和图 8b所示, 每一个接入网设备均拥有自身所属的 跟踪区 (TA ) 不同的接入网设备所属的跟踪区可以不同, 如接入网设备 1所 属的跟踪区为 TA1, 接入网设备 2所属的跟踪区为 TA2, 不同的接入网设备 所属的跟踪区也可以相同, 如接入网设备 1和接入网设备 2所属的跟踪区均 为 TA1。 每一个接入网设备均广播自身所属的跟踪区标识, UE在进入空闲态 后接收自身拥有的每一个 IP地址对应的接入网设备广播的跟踪区标识;其中, 上述广播自身所属跟踪区标识的接入网设备为宏基站或者独立 wifi网络设备。
可选的, UE也可以在连接态的时候接收接入网广播的跟踪区标识。
步骤 1510: 应用服务器接收到上述 UE发送的呼入请求时, 确定寻呼该
UE。
步骤 1520: 应用服务器根据接收到的通知消息中携带的跟踪区标识, 确 定 UE对应的一个或者多个接入网设备标识。
本发明实施例中, 应用服务器在本地保存一个映射关系表, 该映射关系 表中包含跟踪区标识与接入网设备标识之间的映射关系。当接收到上述 UE的 呼入请求时, 确定寻呼上述 UE, 并根据接收到的跟踪区标识, 在本地保存的 映射表中查询上述跟踪区标识对应的一个或多个接入网设备标识。
可选的,当处于空闲态的 UE由于移动而使得自身对应的跟踪区发生变化 时, 需要向应用服务器发起跟踪区更新过程, 即将更新后的跟踪区标识通知 给应用服务器, 应用服务器根据该更新后的跟踪区标识更新本地保存的上述 UE对应的跟踪区标识。 其中, UE可以按照周期性地通过心跳消息向应用服 务器发送该 UE当前时刻对应的跟踪区标识。
步骤 1530: 应用服务器向上述一个或者多个接入网设备标识对应的接入 网设备发送寻呼消息。
步骤 1540: UE接收到应用服务器发送的寻呼消息后, 接入相应的接入网 并进入连接状态。
采用上述技术方案, 通过应用服务器管理 UE对应的跟踪区标识, 以及跟 踪区标识与各个接入网设备标识之间的映射关系, 当 UE处于空闲态时, 应用 服务器根据 UE上报的更新后的跟踪区标识, 更新本地保存的 UE对应的跟踪区 标识; 并且, 应用服务器能够根据本地保存的 UE对应的跟踪区标识, 以及跟 踪区标识与各个接入网设备标识之间的映射关系表, 寻呼到 UE, 使 UE从空闲 态切换至连接态, 从而实现了 UE的外部呼入可达性。 应用场景四
基于上述超扁平无线通信网络, 参阅图 16所示, 以该无线通信网络中的 接入网为 LTE蜂窝网络, 且 UE拥有的 IP地址的数目为至少两个为例, 详细 介绍采用喷泉码技术传输上行数据或者下行数据的流程。
本发明实施例中,由于 UE的数据处理协议栈和应用服务器的数据处理协 议栈相同, 因此, 无论是将 UE作为发送端还是应用服务器作为发送端, UE 和应用服务器对数据的处理流程类似。 以下将发送数据的设备统称为发送端,
并将接收数据的设备统称为接收端, 描述发送端与接收端之间的数据传输流 程; 其中,该 UE为发送端,应用服务器为接收端, 或者应用服务器为发送端, UE为接收端。
步骤 1600: 发送端将待发送数据发送至本地的 MPTCP实体进行处理, 并获取该待发送数据中携带的至少两个 IP地址。
步骤 1610: 由发送端的 MPTCP实体根据上述至少两个 IP地址, 将处理 后的上述待发送数据分别发送至发送端的不同的 UDP/IP实体。
本发明实施例中, 一个 UDP/IP实体处理通过一个 IP地址传输的数据, 不同的 UDP/IP实体处理不同的 IP地址传输的数据。
步骤 1620: 由发送端的不同的 UDP/IP 实体将处理后的待发送数据通过 相应的 IP地址对应的接入网发送至接收端。
本发明实施例中, 发送至不同的 UDP/IP实体处理的待发送数据为喷泉码 数据块。 参阅图 17所示, 发送端将喷泉码源数据块( Source packet )划分为至 少一个数据块(block ), 对该至少一个数据块进行编码后, 生成相应的至少一 个喷泉码数据块( Encoding block ), 即喷泉码数据块对喷泉码源数据块进行编 码后生成。发送端将上述喷泉码数据块依次通过发送端对应的所有 IP地址发送 至接收端。
步骤 1630: 接收端接收到上述待发送数据后, 当确定满足预设条件时, 向发送端反馈成功接收确认信息。
本发明实施例中, 上述预设条件为预设周期到达, 或者接收端成功解码 一个或者多个喷泉源数据块。
本发明实施例中, 上述成功确认信息即为 MPTCP状态报告, 用以通知发 送端已经成功接收到的喷泉码数据块; 该 MPTCP状态报告包含一个或多个喷 泉码源数据块标识和是否成功接收上述一个或者多个喷泉码源数据块的信 息; 或对一个或多个喷泉码源数据块分别成功接收到多少个喷泉码数据块的 信息; 或对一个或多个喷泉码源数据块还需要分别成功接收多少个喷泉码数 据块的信息。 此外, 上述 MPTCP状态报告还可以包括当前已经接收到的最后
一个喷泉码源数据块(不一定已经正确解码) 的编号或该编号加 1。
例如, 参阅图 18所示, 当发送端为应用服务器, 接收端为 UE时, 应用服 务器通过两个 IP地址向 UE传输数据 (Data ), UE接收到上述数据后, 当确定 满足预设条件时, 即向应用服务器发送 MPTCP报告 ( TCP Status Report )。
步骤 1640: 发送端根据该成功接收确认信息, 决定向接收端发送的喷泉 码数据块。
本发明实施例中, 发送端根据 MPTCP状态报告获知哪些喷泉码源数据块 已经被接收端正确解码, 哪些喷泉码源数据块还没有正确解码、 以及发送端 对应的各条链路的传输成功率等信息, 并根据上述信息决定对没有被正确接 收的喷泉码源数据块各需要继续传输多少个喷泉码数据块、 以及在发送端对 应的各条链路上各分流多少个喷泉码数据块。
参阅图 19所示, 为本发明实施例中 MPTCP状态报告示意图。 在该 MPTCP 状态报告中, ACK— SN用于指示下一个没有正确解码的喷泉码源数据块的序列 号 (SN ) , 且该喷泉码源数据块没有在该 MPTCP状态报告中报告为"丟失 ( missing ) "状态; NACK— SN用于指示对应喷泉码源数据块为"丟失"状态, 即在 TCP接收窗口内, SN在 ACK— SN之前且未能正确解码的喷泉码源数据块 的 SN。 "NACK_SN数量" 域也可以通过由每个 NACK_SN项中设置的扩展比 特位进行承载, 该扩展比特位指示该 NACK— SN项后是否还有下一条 NACK— SN项。
可选的, 在发送端向接收端传输喷泉码数据块之前, 接收端向发送端发 送支持喷泉码能力信息; 并接收发送端根据该支持喷泉码能力信息生成的喷 泉码编解码相关的配置参数。 其中, 该喷泉码编解码相关的配置参数包括以 下选项中的一项或者任意项的组合: 一个喷泉码源数据块中包含的喷泉码数 据块的数目, 一个喷泉码数据块所占用存储空间的大小, 第二 MPTCP状态报 告发送周期, 第二 MPTCP状态报告触发条件等信息, 应用服务器的支持喷泉 码能力信息包括应用服务器是否具备生成喷泉码数据块的能力, 以及应用服 务器是否具备解码喷泉码数据块的能力。
可选的, 若发送端对应的任意一条链路上传输待发送数据速度低于预设 阈值,则发送端中的 MPTCP实体将停止或降低分流到该任意一条链路上传输 的待发送数据, 并将更多的待发送数据分流到发送端对应的所有链路中除该 任意一条链路之外的剩余任意一条或者多条链路上传输。
参阅图 20所示, 接收端接收发送端所发送的待发送数据的过程与上述发 送端发送待发送数据的过程相反, 具体流程为:
步骤 2000: 接收端接收发送端通过至少两个 IP地址发送的待发送数据。 步骤 2010:接收端将不同 IP地址的待发送数据分别发送至接收端中不同的 IP/ UDP实体。
本发明实施例中, 一个 IP/UDP实体对应一个 IP地址。
步骤 2020: 由接收端中所有接收到上述待发送数据的 IP/UDP实体分别处 理相应 IP地址的待发送数据。 接收端中的 MPTCP实体。
步骤 2040: 当接收端中的 MPTCP实体接收到上述 IP/TCP实体发送的处理 后的待发送数据时, 若满足预设条件, 则由该 MPTCP实体向发送端发送成功 接收确认信息。
采用上述技术方案, 分别对发送端的协议栈和接收端的协议栈进行修改, 当接收端成功解码至少一个喷泉码源数据后, 才向发送端发送成功接收确认 信息,从而避免了现有接收端中各支路的最高协议层为 TCP层时由 TCP层的 拥塞控制机制造成的当传输成功一个数据包即需要进行 TCP ACK反馈的问 题, 有效提高了无线通信网络的吞吐量, 提供了总体传输速率, 有效节约了 发送端的能耗; 并且, 采用喷泉码技术进行数据的传输时, 可以将喷泉码数 据块由传输速度较低的链路分流至传输速度较高的链路, 无须在分流至的链 路上重新传输分流前链路上已经传输成功的数据, 也无须在分流至的链路上 重新传输分流前链路上已经传输但没有成功的数据, 从而大大降低了发送端 在链路间分流时的数据处理复杂度。
