具体实施方式
本发明实施例提供了一种接入网络的方法以及相关装置,可以在不改动核心网的情况下优化网络接入流程,提高无线网络资源的使用效率。以下分别进行详细说明。
下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本发明一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本发明保护的范围。
本发明的说明书和权利要求书及上述附图中的术语“第一”、“第二”、“第三”“第四”等(如果存在)是用于区别类似的对象,而不必用于描述特定的顺序或先后次序。应该理解这样使用的数据在适当情况下可以互换,以便这里描述的实施例能够以除了在这里图示或描述的内容以外的顺序实施。此外,术语“包括”和“具有”以及他们的任何变形,意图在于覆盖不排他的包含,例如,包含了一系列步骤或单元的过程、方法、系统、产品或设备不必限于清楚地列出的那些步骤或单元,而是可包括没有清楚地列出的或对于这些过程、方法、产品或设备固有的其它步骤或单元。
本发明的技术方案可以应用于各种通信系统,例如:GSM(Global System for Mobile Communication,全球移动通信系统),CDMA(CodeDivision Multiple Access,码分多址),WCDMA,CDMA2000,WIMAX(Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access,全球互通微波存取),宽带码分多址,GPRS(通用分组无线业务,General Packet Radio Service),LTE(Long Term Evolution,长期演进)等。
如图1所示,为本发明通信系统的结构示意图,其包括核心网元11、接入网元12和UE 13;核心网网元11可以通过有线方式与接入网元12通信连接,接入网元12可以通过无线方式与至少一个UE 13通信连接。
在本发明的技术方案中,网络侧的核心网网元11和接入网元12可以是上 述GSM、CDMA或LTE等任意制式通信系统中的核心网部分和接入网部分,具体此处不做限定。
例如,在WCDMA系统中,核心网为WCDMA核心网,接入网为UTRAN(Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network,陆地无线接入网),UTRAN包括RNC(Radio Network Controller,无线网络控制器)、基站(NodeB)和UE,其中,由RNC控制UTRAN的无线资源,包括完成连接建立和断开、切换、宏分及合并、无线资源管理控制等功能。
又例如,在LTE系统中,核心网为LTE核心网,包括MME、SAE GW等部分,接入网包括演进型基站(eNodeB)和UE。eNodeB不仅具有原来NodeB的功能外,还能完成原来RNC的大部分功能,包括物理层、MAC层、RRC、调度、接入控制、承载控制、接入移动性管理等。
上述仅仅举例WCDMA,LTE系统进行示意性说明,在其他制式的通信网络中,本发明同样也适用,具体此处不作限定。
在本发明的技术方案中,UE 13可以是任意具备网络连接功能的设备,例如支持网络连接功能的手机、MTC终端、电视机、服务器、无线路由器、其他各种家用电器或办公设备等,具体此处不一一列举。
在本实施例中,接入网元12,用于接收UE发送的随机接入请求消息,所述随机接入请求消息携带用于请求建立RRC连接的请求信息;向所述UE回复随机接入回复消息,所述随机接入回复消息包括所述接入网元为所述UE分配的无线资源配置信息;与所述UE基于所述无线资源配置信息建立RRC连接;接收所述UE发送的RRC连接建立完成消息。
所述UE,用于向所述接入网元发送所述随机接入请求消息;接收所述接入网元回复的所述随机接入回复消息;与所述接入网元基于所述无线资源配置信息建立RRC连接;向所述接入网元发送所述RRC连接建立完成消息。
请参阅图2,本发明实施例中接入网络的方法一个实施例包括:
201、接入网元接收UE发送的随机接入请求消息;
在UE选择合适的小区进行正常驻留以后,UE就可以在为其分配资源的DCI(Downlink Control Information,下行控制信息)指示的资源上向接入网元发送随机接入请求消息,以发起随机接入流程。需要强调的是,在本实施例中, 随机接入请求消息除了携带随机接入相关参数外,还携带有用于请求建立RRC连接的请求信息。在本实施例中,携带随机接入的相关参数可以参考现有相关标准以及后续相关标准中的规定,在本实施例中不做赘述。
202、接入网元向UE回复随机接入回复消息;
即在接收到UE发送的随机接入请求消息后,接入网元对该随机接入请求消息进行响应并根据请求信息为UE分配无线资源,且将对应分配完成的无线资源配置信息封装在随机接入回复消息中,因此,在本实施例中,随机接入回复消息除了包括随机接入响应信息外,还包括接入网元为UE分配的无线资源配置信息。
203、接入网元与UE基于无线资源配置信息建立RRC连接;
在UE接收到接入网元发送的随机接入回复消息后,UE随机接入成功,同时还获取到接入网元为UE分配的无线资源配置信息。在UE根据无线资源配置信息进行配置后,接入网元与UE基于该无线资源配置信息建立RRC连接。
204、接入网元接收UE发送的RRC连接建立完成消息。
即在接入网元与UE基于无线资源配置信息建立RRC连接后,UE接入到网络,并向接入网元发送RRC连接建立完成消息。
本发明实施例提供的技术方案中,接入网元接收到的随机接入请求消息中携带有用于请求建立RRC连接的请求信息,接入网元根据该请求消息为UE分配无线资源,并向UE回复包括无线资源配置信息的随机接入回复消息,使得UE可根据上述无线资源配置信息进行配置,基于该无线资源配置信息建立与接入网元之间的RRC连接,并在RRC连接完成后向接入网元回复RRC连接建立完成消息。因此相对于现有技术,本发明实施例在随机接入流程中便可以完成接入网元对无线资源的分配,并将分配完成的无线资源配置信息封装在随机接入回复消息中,使得UE在完成随机接入流程结束便可直接利用该无线资源配置信息与接入网元建立RRC连接,可以优化网络接入流程以解决控制面开销过大的问题,有效提高无线网络资源的使用效率,且整个网络接入流程只涉及UE与接入网之间的信令优化,无需对核心网进行改动。
下面结合图2所示实施例,进一步描述UE通过接入网元接入到核心网 元的流程,具体请参阅图3,本发明实施例中接入网络的方法另一实施例包括:
301、接入网元接收UE发送的随机接入请求消息;
在UE选择合适的小区进行正常驻留以后,UE就可以在为其分配资源的DCI(Downlink Control Information,下行控制信息)指示的资源上向接入网元发送随机接入请求消息,以发起随机接入流程。
需要强调的是,在本实施例中,随机接入请求消息除了携带随机接入相关参数外,还携带有用于请求建立RRC连接的请求信息。在本实施例中,携带随机接入的相关参数可以包括UE标识,当网络侧没有为UE分配标识时,该UE标识可以是一个40bits的随机数,当网络侧为UE分配了TMSI(Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity,临时识别码)时,该UE标识可以是TMSI,当网络侧为UE分配了C-RNTI(Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier,小区无线网络临时标识)或者UE保持在连接态,保存有之前分配得到的C-RNTI时,该UE标识可以是C-RNTI,具体此处不作限定,本领域技术人员可以参考现有相关标准以及后续相关标准中的规定,在本实施例中不做赘述。
在本实施例中,请求信息包括用于指示RRC连接建立原因的原因值指示,其中,RRC连接建立原因可以包括:紧急呼叫、高优先级接入、MT接入、MO信令、MO数据以及MTC业务接入等,具体此处不做限定。可以理解的是,根据该原因值指示,接入网元可以依据其所指示的RRC连接建立原因进行相应的无线资源分配。
在本实施例中,随机接入请求消息可以为random access request消息,也可以是具有相同功能的其他名称的消息,具体此处不做限定。
302、接入网元向UE回复随机接入回复消息;
即在接收到UE发送的随机接入请求消息后,接入网元对该随机接入请求消息进行响应并根据请求信息为UE分配无线资源,且将对应分配完成的无线资源配置信息封装在随机接入回复消息中,因此,在本实施例中,随机接入回复消息除了包括随机接入响应信息外,还包括接入网元为UE分配的无线资源配置信息。

其中,RRC连接重配消息携带DRB建立参数,该DRB配置信息包括承载配置信息、逻辑信道配置信息、媒体接入控制层MAC配置信息和物理层PHY配置信息中任意一个或多个;其中,承载配置信息可以包括承载id,比如EPS id,RB id等,逻辑信道配置信息可以包括逻辑信道id,逻辑信道优先级等。可以理解的是,为进一步降低空口传输信令开销,该DRB配置信息中的部分配置信息可以直接写入到协议中,不在空口传输,例如可以默认媒体接入控制层MAC配置和物理层PHY配置。
307、接入网元与UE基于DRB配置信息建立DRB;
在接入网元向UE发送RRC连接重配消息后,UE获取到接入网元为UE分配的DRB配置信息。在UE根据DRB配置信息进行配置后,接入网元与UE基于该DRB配置信息建立DRB。
可以理解的是,除了上述举例的RRC重配置流程外,本发明实施例还适用于多种RRC重配置流程,作为优选,在本发明实施例中,RRC重配置流程可以包括如下操作:

可以理解的是,本发明实施例适用于多种安全配置流程,此处对安全配置流程的具体实现方式不做限定。需要说明的是,在一些应用场景中,考虑到AS安全配置的更新机制(几天更新一次),当接入网元和UE保留有AS上下文时,即使RRC连接已经拆除,再次接入网络时,也可以使用上次的AS配置信息,并省略安全配置流程。
当AS安全激活成功,接入网元和UE之间便可以进行数据传输,可选地,在本发明的技术方案中,还可以进一步包括RRC连接释放流程,RRC连接释放流程旨在释放RRC连接,包括建立的无线承载以及所有无线资源的释放,使UE返回IDLE态,该RRC连接释放流程可参考现有相关标准以及后续相关标准中的规定,在本实施例中,RRC连接释放流程可以包括:当UE接收到最后一个数据包的ACK时,由UE发起RRC连接释放流程,此时,接入网元接收UE发送的用于请求释放RRC连接的MAC信令,当接入网元接收到核心网元发送的UE Context Release Command消息后,向UE发送用于释放RRC连接的MAC信令。

703、UE接收接入网元回复的随机接入回复消息;
需要说明的是,在本实施例中,随机接入回复消息是在接入网元根据随机接入请求消息查询保存在本地的业务请求信息或生成业务请求信息,并基于业务请求信息与核心网网元建立连接之后发送;
即在完成UE初始上下文建立流程后,接入网元对该随机接入请求消息进行响应并根据请求信息为UE分配无线资源,且将对应分配完成的无线资源配置信息封装在随机接入回复消息中,因此,在本实施例中,随机接入回复消息除了包括随机接入响应信息外,还包括接入网元为UE分配的无线资源配置信息。
在本实施例中,无线资源配置信息可以包括SRB配置信息和DRB配置信息。其中,SRB配置信息可参见图6所示实施例中的步骤602中的详细说明,在此不再赘述,DRB配置信息可参见图3所示实施例中的步骤606中的详细说明,在此不再赘述。
可以理解的是,在本实施例中,无线资源配置信息除了包含SRB配置信息和DRB配置信息之外,还可以进一步包括其他涉及无线资源分配的信息,具体此处不做限定。
在本实施例中,随机接入回复消息可以为random access response消息,也可以是具有相同功能的其他名称的消息,具体此处不做限定。
需要说明的是,在执行步骤703后,UE的随机接入流程结束,本发明实施例可以适用于多种不同类型或是多种不同触发条件下的随机接入流程,具体此处不做限定,可以根据实际需求选择。在本实施例中,在随机接入流程中便可以完成接入网元对SRB配置资源和DRB配置资源的分配,并将分配完成的SRB配置资源和DRB配置资源封装在向UE发送的随机接入回复消息中。
704、UE与接入网元基于SRB配置信息建立SRB;
在UE接收到接入网元发送的随机接入回复消息后,UE随机接入成功, 同时还获取到接入网元为UE分配的包括SRB配置信息的无线资源配置信息。在UE根据SRB配置信息进行配置后,UE与接入网元基于该SRB配置信息建立SRB。
705、UE与接入网元基于DRB配置信息建立DRB;
在UE与接入网元基于SRB配置信息建立SRB后,UE根据DRB配置信息进行配置,并与接入网元基于DRB配置信息建立DRB,至此,UE和接入网元之间便可以进行数据传输,UE被快速接入网络。
706、UE向接入网元发送RRC连接建立完成消息;
即在UE与接入网元基于SRB配置信息建立SRB和基于DRB配置信息建立DRB后,UE接入到网络,并向接入网元发送RRC连接建立完成消息。在本实施例中,RRC连接建立完成消息可以为RRC Connection Setup Complete消息,也可以是具有相同功能的其他名称的消息,具体此处不做限定。
与图6所示的实施例相比,本发明实施例提供的技术方案提供了一种基于不同信令流程将UE通过接入网元接入到核心网元以及建立DRB的流程,且可应用于NAS安全配置不变期间发起同样的业务的应用场景。与现有技术相比,本发明实施例提供的技术方案可以将UE快速接入网络。
