Description

通信方法、核心网控制面节点设备和基站
本申请要求于2015年03月09日提交中国专利局、申请号为PCT/CN2015/073882、发明名称为“控制用户设备接入高速移动工具通信网络的方法”的PCT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
本发明涉及无线通讯技术领域,具体涉及一种通信方法、核心网控制面节点设备和基站。
背景技术
高速移动工具在我国以及全球范围内发展迅速。例如,高速移动工具包括高速铁路火车(以下简称“高铁”)、磁悬浮列车、地铁等。以高铁为例,高铁运营里程已达到3万公里以上并且呈快速增长的趋势。伴随着高端人群大规模、长时间乘坐高速移动工具频繁流动的情况以及高速移动工具本身信息化建设的需求,高速移动工具的通信需求日益强烈。
然而,高速移动工具通信不同于常规的室内和室外移动通信场景,由于列车运行速度快,车体穿透损耗大,场景地形复杂多变等因数,使得现有的公网并不适于为乘坐高速移动工具的用户提供服务。因此,建设一个专门为高速移动用户提供服务的网络的需求日渐突出。此处的“公网”是指区别于上述专用网络的一般无线蜂窝通信网络。该专用网络与公网可以是不同的公用陆地移动网(英文:public land mobile network,简称:PLMN);或者,也可以是同一个PLMN下两类网络区域的划分,两者在空间上可以有重叠,但使用不同的接入频点。例如,目前已经有设备商和运营商开始规划和部署这样的高铁专用无线网络(以下简称“高铁专网”)。高铁专网覆盖高铁行进途中以及高铁火车站的站台附近。高铁火车站区域的小区部署如图1A所示。高铁火车站的候车室102、进出站通道103以及站台104以及小区106都规划为属于高铁专网覆盖下的专网小区。火车站外的火车站广场规划为 属于公网小区105。目前高铁网络规划将专网小区和公网小区独立部署。针对铁路线型覆盖的特点,高铁专网采取小区级联连续覆盖的方案,如图1B所示。在图1B的例子中,高铁的轨道区域被级联的专网小区111连续覆盖,同时公网小区115也覆盖了该高铁的轨道区域。
公网和高铁专网采用如下协同原则:
(1)在高铁线路大部分区域(如,车站附近区域外的高铁行进途中),高铁专网小区和周边公网小区间不互配邻区关系。也就是说,专网小区只配专网下的级联小区作为邻区,不配置公网作为邻区;公网小区也不配置专网小区作为邻区;以防止公网用户或专网用户轻易地重选或切换进入对方小区。
(2)在火车站的站台附近配置公网小区和专网小区为相互邻区关系,以让乘坐高铁的用户所使用的UE从公网小区(如图1A中的公网小区105)进入专网小区(如图1A中的公网小区101)或从专网小区进入公网小区。
当前,在高铁车站附近区域,可能会出现大量公网普通用户接入专网小区并长期侵占专网资源问题。另外,由于高铁专网小区和周边公网小区间无相互邻区关系在高速移动工具行进途中,当UE因异常原因脱离高速移动工具通信网络而接入公网后,现有技术无法使得该UE后续能快速地回到高速移动工具通信网络,影响了乘坐高速移动工具的用户的用户体验。
发明内容
本文描述了一种通信方法,核心网控制面节点设备及基站,以提高高铁专网的资源利用率。
在本发明中,第一通信网络是为乘坐高速移动工具的用户提供通信服务的专用通信网络,第一类型UE为第一通信网络中未乘坐高速移动工具的用户所使用的UE。可选的,第一通信网络和第二通信网络分别是不同的公用陆地移动网PLMN,或,第一通信网络和第二通信网络是同一个PLMN,但使用不同的接入频点。
一方面,本申请的实施例提供了一种通信方法。该方法包括:核心网控制面节点设备(如MME)确定第一通信网络中的用户设备UE 是第一类型UE,则向第一通信网络的基站设备发送指示信息,该指示信息用于指示UE为第一类型UE,以使基站设备将UE接入第二通信网络。因此,保证了第一通信网络的资源不被第一类型UE(即公网UE)所占用,提升了第一通信网络的资源利用率。
在一种可能的设计中,指示信息为第一无线接入制式/频点优先级用户文件标识SPID值,由核心网控制面节点设备为UE分配,用于指示UE为第一类型UE。基站收到第一SPID值后,触发UE离开第一通信网络。例如,基站可通过根据第一SPID值向UE发送频点优先级信息,该频点优先级信息用于指示UE优先选择第二通信网络的频点进行驻留。或者,基站设备也可根据第一SPID值,触发UE至第二通信网络的切换流程,将UE接入第二通信网络;或,向UE发送携带重定向信息的第一消息,该重定向信息包括与第二通信网络对应的频点信息,将UE接入第二通信网络。
在一种可能的设计中,核心网控制面节点设备可根据UE在第一指定区域(如高铁火车站附近N公里内某专网小区或整个高铁专网沿线某专网小区)内的驻留时间超过第一预设值,确定UE是第一类型UE。可选的,若核心网控制面节点设备在确定第一通信网络中的UE是第一类型UE之前确定UE通过特定区域接入了第一通信网络,则可根据UE在第一指定区域内的驻留时间超过第二预设值,确定UE是第一类型UE。其中,第二预设值大于第一预设值。
在一种可能的设计中,若在预设时间段内UE所在的移动性管理区域(例如,跟踪区TA、路由区RA、位置区LA、基站覆盖区域或小区。)的变换次数小于第三预设值,则核心网控制面节点设备可确定UE是第一类型UE。
在一种可能的设计中,核心网控制面节点设备还可在UE的用户上下文中增加用于表示UE是第一类型UE的标识信息。进一步的,若接收到UE在第二指定区域(如,第二指定区域包括所述第一通信网络的移动性管理区域)的接入请求,则核心网控制面节点设备清除标识信息。
另一方面,本申请的实施例还提供了一种通信方法。该方法包括: 核心网控制面节点设备接收UE发送的接入第二通信网络的请求消息,根据请求消息确定UE不是第一类型UE,并向第二通信网络的基站设备发送用于指示UE不是第一类型UE的指示信息。第二通信网络中的基站设备接收到指示信息后,将UE接入第一通信网络。
因此,即使乘坐高速移动工具的用户所使用的UE因异常原因误接入公网,也能快速地重新回到高铁专网,提升了第一通信网络中乘坐高速移动工具的用户的用户体验。
可选的,请求消息包括移动性管理区域更新请求消息或附着请求消息。
在一种可能的设计中,指示信息为第二SPID值,是核心网控制面节点设备在确定UE为不是第一类型UE后为UE分配的。
在一种可能的设计中,请求消息中包含UE最近访问的移动性管理区域的编码。核心网控制面节点设备根据请求消息中包含的UE最近访问的移动性管理区域的编码是第一通信网络的移动性管理区域的编码,确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。
在一种可能的设计中,核心网控制面节点设备根据所述UE的用户上下文中未包含用于表示所述UE为第一类型UE的标识信息,确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。
在一种可能的设计中,核心网控制面节点设备根据请求消息不是在UE从第一通信网络切换至第二通信网络后收到的,确定UE不是第一类型UE。
在一种可能的设计中,基站设备可通过如下方式任一,根据指示信息UE接入所述第一通信网络:
基站设备触发UE至第一通信网络的切换流程,将UE接入第一通信网络;或,向UE发送携带重定向信息的第二消息(如,RRC连接释放消息),该重定向信息包括与第一通信网络对应的频点信息,将UE接入所述第一通信网络;或,基站设备根据第二SPID值向UE发送频点优先级信息,该频点优先级信息用于指示UE优先选择第一通信网络的频点进行驻留。

具体实施方式
为使本发明实施例的目的、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,本领域普通技术人员在没有做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。
本发明用于控制UE接入高速移动工具通信网络,使得非乘坐高速移动工具的用户的UE在行进途中,即使因异常原因接入高速移动工具通信网络,也可被从高速移动工具通信网络中剔除而重新回到公网。其中,高速移动工具通信网络是指为乘坐高速移动工具(如,高铁、轻轨、地铁)的用户提供通信服务的专用网络,该专用网络和公 网可以是不同的PLMN;或者,也可以是同一个PLMN下两类网络区域的划分,两者在空间上可以有重叠,但使用不同的接入频点(例如中国移动的1900MHz、2100MHz)。为便于描述,将高速移动工具通信网络也称为第一通信网络,将除第一通信网络之外的通信网络称为第二通信网络,例如,第二通信网络为公网。此外,将非乘坐高速移动工具的用户(即公网用户)所使用的UE简称为第一类型UE。除第一类型外的UE即为第二类型UE。例如,第二类型UE包括乘坐高速移动工具的用户所使用的UE。
本发明适用的第一通信网络包括但不限于长期演进(英文:Long Term Evolution,简称:LTE)网络、全球移动通讯系统(英文:Global System of Mobile communication,简称:GSM)、通用移动通讯系统(英文:Universal Mobile Telecommunications System,简称:UMTS)网络或下一代无线通信网络。在以上任一网络的场景下,通信系统至少包括核心网控制面节点设备、UE以及基站设备。在LTE网络下,核心网控制面节点设备包括但不限于移动性管理实体(英文:Mobility Management Entity,简称:MME),基站设备包括但不限于演进型网络基站(英文:E-UTRAN NodeB,简称:eNodeB)。在GSM网络或UMTS网络下,核心网控制面节点设备包括但不限于通用分组无线服务(英文:General Packet Radio Service,简称:GPRS)业务支撑节点(英文:Serving GPRS Support Node,简称:SGSN)或移动交换中心(英文:Mobile Switching Center,简称:MSC),基站设备包括但不限于基站控制器(英文:base station controller,简称:BSC)或无线网络控制器(英文:radio network controller,简称:RNC)。在本发明中,第一通信网络和第二通信网络分别部署不同的接入网设备(如,eNodeB)。
以下将以高速移动工具为高铁,第一通信网络为LTE高铁专网为例进行描述。然而,本发明并不局限于此,高速移动工具包括但不限于高铁、磁悬浮、地铁,且本发明同样适用于GSM网络、UMTS网络或下一代无线通信系统。
例如,高铁专网覆盖的场景可分为高铁火车站以及高铁行进途中 这两种。高铁火车站被专网小区所覆盖,高铁行进途中也被级联的专网小区覆盖。此外,高铁火车站以及行进路线还都至少被高铁专网附近的公网小区部分覆盖。
图2所示为根据本发明第一个实施例的通信方法的流程示意图。图2由核心网控制面节点设备(如MME)来执行。该MME可为第一通信网络独立部署的专网MME,或者,该MME也可为第一通信网络和第二通信网络共享部署的共享MME,即,高速移动工具通信网络和公网使用同一个MME。当MME被高速移动工具通信网络和公网共享时,共享MME用于同时为第一通信网络中的UE和第二通信网络中的UE提供控制面管理服务。
在本发明的实施例中,第一类型UE可能会接入第一通信网络,即高铁专网。例如,第一类型UE接入第一通信网络的原因为周边公网的覆盖较弱,第一类型UE在开机附着或小区重选时选择了信号相对较好的高铁专网进行接入。
如图2所示,该方法包括:
步骤S200,核心网控制面节点设备确定第一通信网络中的UE是第一类型UE。例如,MME识别驻留于高铁LTE专网中某UE实际上是并未乘坐高铁的用户所使用的UE,即属于第一类型UE。
步骤S202,核心网控制面节点设备向第一通信网络中服务该UE的基站设备发送指示信息,该指示信息用于指示所述UE为第一类型UE,以使所述基站设备将所述第一UE接入第二通信网络。
通过本发明的方案,在核心网控制面节点设备确定接入第一通信网络的UE为第一类型UE后,向服务该UE的基站设备下发用于指示所述UE为第一类型UE的指示信息,使得基站设备将该UE迁出第一通信网络。因此,保证了第一通信网络的资源不被第一类型UE(即公网UE)所占用,提升了第一通信网络的资源利用率。
例如,步骤S200可包括:
S200a,核心网控制面节点设备根据所述UE在第一指定区域内驻留时间超过第一预设值,确定所述UE是第一类型UE。例如,第一指定区域是指定的跟踪区(英文:Tracking Area,简称TA)、基站覆 盖区或小区。所述第一指定区域可以是高铁LTE专网的上述类型区域,也可以是周边公网中的上述类型区域。所述第一指定区域可以根据实际网络环境进行设置,例如,可以将高铁火车站附近N公里专网小区或整个高铁专网沿线一个或多个专网小区设置成第一指定区域。
例如,核心网控制面节点设备可根据UE在高铁LTE专网中第一指定区域内的一个或多个eNodeB下驻留的时间超过预设值(如60分钟)且期间内该UE并未接入指定范围以外的eNodeB,确定UE是第一类型UE。
又如,核心网控制面节点设备可根据UE在高铁LTE专网中第一指定区域内的eNodeB和周边公网的eNodeB下驻留的时间超过预设值且期间内该UE并未接入指定范围以外的eNodeB,确定UE是第一类型UE。
进一步,在本发明的另一实施例中,若所述核心网控制面节点设备在确定该UE是第一类型UE之前已经确定该UE是乘坐高铁的用户所使用的UE或者具备高铁专网UE的某些特性,则核心网控制面节点根据UE在第一指定区域驻留时间超过第二预设值(如90分钟),确定所述UE是第一类型UE。第二预设值大于第一预设值。举例来说,当该UE已经从特定区域(如火车站室分小区)接入高铁LTE专用网络,可认为该UE具备高铁专网UE的特性。
S200b,核心网控制面节点设备根据所述UE在预设时间段内移动性管理区域变化的次数小于第三预设值,确定UE是第一类型UE。
所述移动性管理区域可以是跟踪区TA或基站覆盖区或小区等。此种方式并未限定于指定区域,可以适用于整个高铁LTE专用网络。
例如,核心网控制面节点设备可根据UE在预设时间段内(如90分钟)移动性管理区域变化的次数小于第三预设值(如3次),确定UE是第一类型UE。S200c,在第一核心网控制面节点确定UE是第一类型UE后,该第一核心网控制面节点在所述UE的用户上下文中增加用于指示所述UE是第一类型UE的标识信息。
当UE的服务核心网控制面节点从第一核心网控制面节点改变为第二核心网控制面节点时,第一核心网控制面节点会将所述标识信息 与所述用户上下文一起传递给第二核心网控制面节点,第二核心网控制面节点即可根据所述标识信息识别所述UE是第一类型UE。
可选的,在本发明的另一实施例中,在核心网控制面节点在所述UE的上下文中增加了所述用于标识UE是第一类型UE的标识信息之后,若UE从第二指定区域接入高铁LTE专用网络,则核心网控制面节点清除所述标识信息。例如,第二指定区域是火车站区域高铁LTE专网的TA、eNodeB覆盖的区域或小区,标识信息的清除用于避免用户在需要乘坐高铁时因先前的标识信息而被误判为公网用户。又如,第二指定区域可以是第一指定区域之外(如火车站N公里以外)的高铁LTE专网的TA、eNodeB覆盖的区域或小区。若UE在第一指定区域被识别为第一类型UE后又接入第二指定区域,则说明该UE具备移动性,且移动性达到某种程度,此时核心网控制面节点清除所述标识信息能够刷新对UE类型的判断结果。
通过上述S200a至S200c中任一方式或任几种方式的结合,核心网控制面节点设备即可确定第一通信网络中的UE是第一类型UE。
此外,在核心网控制面节点确定UE是第一类型UE后,在所述UE的用户上下文中增加用于指示所述UE是第一类型UE的标识信息的操作并不仅限于上述步骤S200c。通过其他方式确定UE为第一类型UE后,也可在所述UE的用户上下文中增加用于指示所述UE是第一类型UE的标识信息。
可选的,步骤S202可利用接入制式/频点优先级用户文件标识(英文Subscriber Profile ID for RAT/Frequency Priority,简称:SPID)或切换或重定向的方式来实现。
图3所示为利用SPID来实现步骤S202的示意图,具体包括:
S202a1,核心网控制面节点设备为所述第一类型UE分配第一SPID值。
所述第一SPID值用于指示所述基站设备向所述UE发送第一频点优先级信息,其中,所述第一频点优先级信息用于指示所述UE优先选择所述第二通信网络的频点进行驻留,例如,所述第一频点优先级信息用于指示LTE公网对应的频点优先级高高于上述第一通信网络, 从而使得所述基站设备将所述UE接入第二通信网络。例如,核心网控制面节点设备为该UE分配SPID=4。
S202a2,核心网控制面节点设备将所述第一SPID值发送给在第一通信网络中服务该UE的基站设备。相应地,第一通信网络中服务该UE的基站设备接收该核心网控制面节点设备发送的所述第一SPID值。
例如,MME向专网eNodeB发送下行非接入层(英文:non-access stratum,简称:NAS)直传消息,所述下行NAS直传消息携带所述第一SPID值。若所述MME接收UE发送的移动性管理区域更新请求消息(如,TAU请求消息),所述下行NAS直传消息中还可以包括以下任一:移动性管理区域更新接受消息或移动性管理区域更新拒绝消息。
以LTE网络为例,UE向MME发送TAU请求消息后,MME可先接受该TAU请求,将第一SPID值和TAU接受(accept)消息封装于下行NAS直传消息中发送给正在服务于所述第一类型UE的专网eNodeB。专网eNodeB解析接收到的下行NAS直传消息,以获取第一SPID值和TAU accept消息,专网eNodeB可以将解析得到的TAU accept消息转发给UE或直接丢弃。或者,MME可先拒绝该TAU请求,将第一SPID值和携带某原因值的TAU拒绝(reject)消息封装于下行NAS直传消息中发给正在服务于所述UE的专网eNodeB。例如,所述TAU reject消息中携带的原因值具体可以是跟踪区不允许(Tracking area not allowed)或者跟踪区内无合适小区(No suitable cells in tracking area)等。所述原因值用于指示所述第一类型UE发起的所述TAU流程不被允许,以避免所述UE再次向该专网TA发起TAU请求。专网eNodeB解析接收到的下行NAS直传消息,以获取第一SPID值和TAU reject消息,专网eNodeB可以将解析得到的TAU reject消息转发给UE310或直接丢弃。
或者,可选的,对于LTE网络,S202a2可包括:
MME向专网eNodeB发送初始上下文建立请求消息(initial context setup request),所述初始上下文建立请求消息用于指示所述eNodeB建立所述用户的上下文,所述初始上下文建立请求消息携 带所述第一SPID值;或者,MME向专网eNodeB发送上下文修改请求消息(UE context modification request),所述上下文修改请求消息用于向所述eNodeB提供用户上下文的改变信息,所述上下文修改请求消息携带所述第一SPID值。
或者,可选的,S202a2可包括:
MME向专网eNodeB发送上下文释放指令消息(如,S1接口上下文释放指令消息),所述上下文释放指令消息携带所述第一SPID值。
例如,MME接收所述第一类型UE发起的TAU过程之后,可以接受或拒绝所述UE发起的TAU请求,待MME完成TAU处理并完成TAU accept/reject消息下发后,MME触发S1接口释放流程,以释放所述UE的信令面连接。MME向所述专网eNodeB发送携带第一SPID值的S1接口上下文释放指令(S1UE Context Release Command)消息,所述第一SPID值用于告知所述专网eNodeB所述UE是第一类型UE。
S202a3,专网eNodeB根据第一SPID值确定第一频点优先级信息,并据此向UE发送第一频点优先级信息。相应地,UE接收第一频点优先级信息。第一频点优先级信息用于指示所述UE优先选择所述第二通信网络的频点进行驻留,例如,优先接入高铁沿线周边的LTE公网。
其中,专网eNodeB中可预配置有不同的SPID值与各种频点优先级信息的映射关系。因此,当专网eNodeB收到所述第一SPID值后,可通过查询配置的映射关系得到相对应的第一频点优先级信息。例如,映射关系中可设置第一类型UE待返回的公网频点优先级最高。例如,eNodeB 330中可以维护一张如表1所示的映射关系表。
表1
Figure PCTCN2016073076-appb-000001
Figure PCTCN2016073076-appb-000002
如表1所示,当SPID等于4时,第一频点优先级信息对应优先组2,在优先组2中,公网的频点为1900M,优先级别为7,专网的频点为2100M,优先级别为6。这里假设优先级别的值越大,代表该对应网络的频点的优先级越高,即UE优先接入优先级别值大的网络的频点。因此,当SPID等于4时,第一频点优先级信息指示公网频点的优先级高于专网频点的优先级。
在专网基站根据第一SPID值确定第一频点优先级信息后,向UE发送第一频点优先级信息。
例如,所述基站向所述UE发送无线资源控制RRC连接释放(RRC connection release)消息,所述RRC连接释放消息中携带所述第一频点优先级信息。更具体地说,专网基站可以在收到核心网控制面节点发送的第一SPID值后,立即结束所述第一类型UE正在进行的业务(如TAU流程),向所述UE发送携带第一频点优先级组信息的RRC连接释放消息,以释放所述UE与网络侧的信令连接。或者,专网基站在收到第一SPID值后,等待所述UE与网络侧完成当前正在进行的业务后,再释放UE与网络侧之间信令连接,如,向UE发送携带第一频点优先级组信息的RRC连接释放消息。
S202a4,UE根据第一频点优先级信息优先选择所述第二通信网络的频点进行驻留。
当UE接收到专网基站发送的第一频点优先级信息后且进入空闲态之后,根据所述第一频点优先级信息,优先选择公网对应的频点进行驻留。例如,若UE搜索到LTE公网中某小区的频点适合执行重选流程,则重选至该公网小区。
通过本发明的方案,在MME确定驻留于高铁LTE专网的UE为公网UE后,向服务该UE的专网eNodeB下发公网UE专用的第一SPID,以使专网eNodeB根据该第一SPID向该UE下发用于指示LTE公网对应的频点优先级较高的第一频点优先级信息,使得该UE优先接入LTE公网,最终达到将该公网UE迁出高铁LTE专网的效果,这保证了高铁LTE专网的资源不被公网UE所占用,提升了高铁LTE专网的资源 利用率。
可选的,第一频点优先级信息还包括定时器值。例如,该定时器值可以根据高铁路程、火车行驶的时间等因素设定。该定时器值用于指示第一频点优先级信息有效的持续时间。例如,定时器值设为一个小时,一个小时后,该第一频点优先级信息就失效。
因此,可选的,在步骤S202a4之前,该方法还包括:
UE判断定时器是否超时。当UE的定时器没有超时的情况下,UE执行上述步骤S202a4。在定时器超时后,则根据其他频点优先级信息接入优先级高的频点所对应的网络。
由于设置了第一频点优先级信息的定时器,在定时器超时后,该第一频点优先级信息失效,那么,UE就可根据其他频点优先级信息接入优先级高的频点所对应的网络。因此,第一频点优先级信息不会影响UE在下次乘坐高铁列车在高铁专网中的流程和业务。
可选的,当利用切换或重定向的方式来实现步骤S202时,如图4所示,具体包括:
S202b1,核心网控制面节点设备在确定UE为第一类型UE后,将指示信息发送给在第一通信网络中服务该UE的基站设备。相应地,第一通信网络中服务该UE的基站设备接收该核心网控制面节点设备发送的所述指示信息。指示信息包括但不限于图3中描述的第一SPID值。
可选的,S202b1可具体包括:
核心网控制面节点设备向所述专网基站发送下行NAS直传消息,所述下行NAS直传消息携带所述指示信息。若核心网控制面节点设备接收UE发送的移动性管理区域更新请求消息(如,TAU请求消息),所述下行NAS直传消息中还可以包括以下任一:移动性管理区域更新接受消息或移动性管理区域更新拒绝消息。核心网控制面节点设备如何通过下行NAS直传消息向专网基站提供指示信息可参考S202a3中的描述,在此不再赘述。
或者,可选的,对于LTE网络,S202b1可包括:
核心网控制面节点设备向所述专网基站发送初始上下文建立请求消息(initial context setup request),所述初始上下文建立请求消息用于指示所述专网基站建立所述用户的上下文,所述初始上下文建立请求消息携带所述指示信息;或者,核心网控制面节点设备向所述专网基站发送上下文修改请求消息(UE context modification request),所述上下文修改请求消息用于向所述专网基站提供用户上下文的改变信息,所述上下文修改请求消息携带所述指示信息。
或者,S202b1可具体包括:
核心网控制面节点设备向所述专网基站发送上下文释放指令消息(如,S1接口上下文释放指令消息),所述上下文释放指令消息携带所述指示信息。核心网控制面节点设备如何通过上下文释放指令消息向专网基站提供指示信息可参考S202a3中MME如何通过上下文释放指令消息向专网基站eNodeB提供第一SPID值的描述,在此不再赘述。
S202b2,专网基站接收核心网控制面节点设备发送的指示信息后,针对UE触发重定向流程或切换流程,以使UE接入公网。
可选的,基站设备根据所述指示信息向所述UE发送第一消息,所述第一消息携带重定向信息,所述重定向信息包括与所述第二通信网络对应的频点信息,以使所述UE重定向回所述第二通信网络。第一消息可以是无线资源控制RRC连接释放(RRC connection release)消息。
举例来说,当专网基站接收核心网控制面节点设备发送的携带指示信息(如,第一SPID值)的下行NAS直传消息后,发送所述RRC连接释放消息至所述第一类型UE,以触发重定向流程。其中,RRC连接释放消息携带重定向信息,所述重定向信息包括与所述第二通信网络对应的频点信息。可选的,所述下行非NAS直传消息还携带NAS消息,在所述专网基站向所述UE发送RRC连接释放消息前,所述公网eNodeB 330可将所述NAS消息转发至所述UE或者直接丢弃。
或者,当专网基站接收核心网控制面节点设备发送的携带指示信息的S1接口上下文释放指令消息后,发送所述RRC连接释放消息至 所述第一类型UE,以触发重定向流程。其中,RRC连接释放消息携带重定向信息,所述重定向信息包括与所述第二通信网络对应的频点信息。
或者,专网基站设备可根据所述指示信息触发所述UE至所述第二通信网络的切换流程。
举例来说,当专网基站接收核心网控制面节点设备发送的携带指示信息(如,第一SPID值)的下行NAS直传消息后,发送切换请求(Handover Required)消息至核心网控制面节点设备,以触发UE至第二通信网络的切换准备流程。其中,切换请求消息携带目标第二通信网络相关信息(如target eNodeB ID和/或target TAI),所述切换准备流程用户通知目标第二通信网络为UE的接入准备相应的资源。待切换准备流程结束后,专网基站向UE发送切换命令(Handover Command),以触发UE至目标第二通信网络的切换执行流程。
根据本发明的方案,当第一类型UE因异常原因接入高铁专网后,核心网控制面节点设备MME可通过多种方式识别该UE为第一类型UE,并据此将指示信息发送至专网基站。专网基站根据接收到的指示信息向所述UE发送第一消息(如,RRC连接释放消息),所述第一消息携带重定向信息,所述重定向信息包括与所述第二通信网络对应的频点信息,以使所述UE重定向回所述第二通信网络;或者专网基站根据接收到的指示信息触发所述UE至第二通信网络的切换流程。
通过以上任一方式,核心网控制面节点设备即向第一通信网络中服务该UE的基站设备传递了用于指示所述UE为第一类型UE的指示信息,以使所述基站设备将所述第一UE接入第二通信网络。因此,即使UE因异常原因误接入高铁专网,使得该UE优先接入LTE公网,最终达到将该公网UE迁出高铁LTE专网的效果,这保证了高铁LTE专网的资源不被公网UE所占用,提升了高铁LTE专网的资源利用率。
图5所示为根据本发明第一个实施例的通信方法流程图。图5由核心网控制面节点设备(如MME)来执行。该MME可为第二通信网络独立部署的专网MME,或者,该MME也可为第一通信网络和第二通信 网络共享部署的共享MME,即,高速移动工具通信网络和公网使用同一个MME。当MME被高速移动工具通信网络和公网共享时,共享MME用于同时为第一通信网络中的UE和第二通信网络中的UE提供控制面管理服务。
在本发明的实施例中,乘坐高铁的用户使用的UE可在不同区域接入高铁专网。举例来说,该UE可在火车站区域接入高铁专网,或者,UE可在轨道区域接入高铁专网。例如,当用户进入高铁火车站区域,如进入候车室候车或者经过道走上站台,因其进入高铁专网信号的覆盖区域,绝大多数开机UE会接入高铁专网。
UE接入高铁专网的方式可能有多种,例如:对于处于空闲态的UE,因UE从公网小区进入高铁专网小区,从而触发小区重选流程接入高铁专网。对于处于连接态的UE,可经LTE切换流程而接入高铁专网。而对于进入火车站区域(如候车室,过道,站台等)才开机的UE,可通过在火车站区域专网小区下发起附着(attach)流程接入高铁专网。
在该UE在车站区域接入高铁专网后,可能因异常原因(如终端异常、专网覆盖差等)脱离高铁专网而接入该专网周边的公网。例如,当高铁列车运行到专网覆盖信号质量很差或无专网覆盖区域时,该UE会搜索到周边公网频点并选择一个合适的公网小区进行驻留。
如图5所示,通信方法包括:
S500,核心网控制面节点设备接收用户设备发送的接入第二通信网络的请求消息。
例如,来自高铁LTE专网的UE因异常原因请求接入周边LTE公网,而向MME发送跟踪区更新TAU请求消息或附着请求消息等。其中TAU请求消息可能是空闲态UE以小区重选方式接入公网后发送的,也可能是连接态UE以切换方式接入公网后发送的。
S502,核心网控制面节点设备根据所述请求消息确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。
例如,MME根据TAU请求或附着请求消息识别接入公网的UE不是第一类型UE。
S504,核心网控制面节点设备向基站设备发送指示信息,该指示信息用于指示所述UE不是第一类型UE,以使所述基站设备将所述UE接入所述第一通信网络。例如,当所述基站设备收到所述指示信息后,将所述UE重定向或者切换至所述第一通信网络。
基站设备如何根据指示信息将UE重定向或切换至第一通信网络类似于图4中基站设备根据指示信息将UE重定向或切换至第二通信网络的描述,此处不再赘述。
可选的,在步骤S504前,该方法进一步包括:
S503,在核心网控制面节点设备(如,MME)确定UE不是第一类型UE后,为该UE分配第二SPID值。例如,MME为UE分配SPID=5。
相应的,则步骤S504具体包括:
所述核心网控制面节点设备向所述基站设备发送所述第二SPID值,以使当所述基站设备收到所述第二SPID值后,将所述UE重定向或者切换至所述第一通信网络;或,
所述核心网控制面节点设备向所述基站设备发送所述第二SPID值,所述第二SPID值用于指示所述基站设备向所述UE发送第二频点优先级信息,其中,所述第二频点优先级信息用于指示所述UE优先选择所述第一通信网络的频点进行驻留,即,优先接入高铁专网。
核心网控制面节点设备如何向所述基站设备发送所述第二SPID值可采用类似于图3中核心网控制面节点设备向所述基站设备发送所述第一SPID值的方式S202a3,此处不再赘述。
基站收到第二SPID值后,可通过查询配置的映射关系得到相对应的第二频点优先级信息,向所述UE发送第二频点优先级信息。举例来说,根据上述表1,当SPID等于5时,第二频点优先级信息对应优先组1,在优先组1中,公网的频点为1900M,优先级别为6,专网的频点为2100M,优先级别为7。第二频点优先级信息指示专网频点的优先级高于公网频点的优先级。之后的操作可参考图3中S202a3和S202a4的描述,此处不再赘述。
通过本发明的方案,在核心网控制面节点设备确定UE不是第一类型UE后,向基站设备发送指示信息,以使所述基站将所述UE接入 第一通信网络专网。因此,即使乘坐高速移动工具的用户所使用的UE因异常原因误接入公网,也能快速地重新回到高铁专网,提升了第一通信网络中乘坐高速移动工具的用户的用户体验。
可选的,核心网控制面节点设备可通过以下方式任一或任意几种方式的结合来确定UE不是第一类型UE。以下仅为举例说明,然而本发明并不限于此,通过其他方式确定UE不是第一类型UE也在本发明的保护范围内。
(1)核心网控制面节点设备可以是为公网独立部署的核心网控制面节点MME,也可以是与现有的高铁专网共享部署的MME。另外,由于专网小区中架设独立于公网基站的专网基站,并且一般情况下,需要划分区别于公网TA的专网TA,例如专网TA含有专用的跟踪区编码(英文:Tracking Area Code,简称:TAC)。因此,通过TAC即可区分TA为专网TA还是公网TA。
此外,因专网TA和公网TA属于不同种类的TA,一般会被规划属于不同的TA列表(TA list)。当UE从原专网TA接入公网TA时,会发起TAU流程。例如,UE向核心网控制面节点设备发送TAU request消息,其中TAU request消息携带最近访问的TAI(最近访问的跟踪区标识,Last visited TAI)信元,该Last visited TAI信元的TAC对应为专网TAC。
因此,步骤S502可包括:
S502a,核心网控制面节点设备接收UE发送的移动性管理区域更新请求消息,如TAU请求消息。所述移动性管理区域更新请求消息携带原移动性管理区域编码。
当所述原移动性管理区域编码(如old TAC)为所述第一通信网络的移动性管理区域编码时,所述核心网控制面节点设备确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。
(2)根据图2的描述,驻留于高铁LTE专网的UE若被识别出是第一类型UE(即对应公网用户),则MME在所述UE的用户上下文中增加标识信息,所述标识信息用于表示所述UE是第一类型UE。
因此,步骤S502可包括:
S502b,核心网控制面节点设备接收UE发送的接入请求消息后,获取所述UE的用户上下文。
若所述UE的用户上下文中未包含用于标识所述UE是第一类型UE的信息,则所述核心网控制面节点设备确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。
(3)对于驻留于高铁LTE专网且被识别出是第一类型UE(即公网用户)的连接态UE,现有技术中可能采用切换的方式将其迁出高铁LTE专网。
因此,步骤S502可包括:
S502c,核心网控制面节点设备接收UE发送的接入请求消息。所述核心网控制面节点设备判断上述接入请求消息是否是在所述UE从第一通信网络切换至第二通信网络后接收到的,若上述接入请求消息是在切换后接收到的,则所述UE为第一类型UE;若上述接入请求消息不是在切换后接收到的,则所述UE不是第一类型UE。
(4)核心网控制面节点设备也可结合上述S502a、S502b、S502c来确定所述UE是否为第一类型UE。
例如,在本发明的一个实施例中,结合S502a和S502b,核心网控制面节点设备确定UE不是第一类型UE,包括:
当所述UE发送接入所述第二通信网络时请求消息时,所述核心网控制面节点设备根据所述请求消息中包含的所述UE最近访问的移动性管理区域的编码是所述第一通信网络的移动性管理区域的编码且所述UE的用户上下文中未包含用于表示所述UE为第一类型UE的标识信息,确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。例如,具体到高铁LTE专网场景,MME可根据UE发送的TAU request消息中的old TAC是高铁LTE专网TAC且UE的用户上下文中不包含所述UE是公网UE的标识信息,确定UE不是第一类型UE。
又如,在本发明的另一个实施例中,结合S502a和S502c,核心网控制面节点设备确定UE不是第一类型UE,包括:
当所述UE发送接入所述第二通信网络时请求消息时,所述核心网控制面节点设备根据所述请求消息中包含的所述UE最近访问的移 动性管理区域的编码是所述第一通信网络的移动性管理区域的编码且所述请求消息不是在所述UE从所述第一通信网络切换至所述第二通信网络后接收到的,确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。例如,具体到高铁LTE专网场景,MME可以根据UE发送的TAU request消息中的old TAC是高铁LTE专网TAC,且所述TAU request并不是切换后由UE发送的,确定UE不是第一类型UE。
又如,在本发明的另一个实施例中,结合S502a、S502b和S502c,核心网控制面节点设备确定UE不是第一类型UE,包括:
当所述UE发送接入所述第二通信网络时请求消息时,所述核心网控制面节点设备根据所述请求消息中包含的所述UE最近访问的移动性管理区域的编码是所述第一通信网络的移动性管理区域的编码且所述UE的用户上下文中未包含用于表示所述UE为第一类型UE的标识信息且所述请求消息不是在所述UE从所述第一通信网络切换至所述第二通信网络后接收到的,确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。例如,具体到高铁LTE专网场景,MME可根据UE发送的TAU request消息中的old TAC是高铁LTE专网TAC,且UE的用户上下文中不包含UE是公网UE的标识信息,且所述TAU request并不是切换后由UE发送的,确定UE不是第一类型UE。
除此之外,本发明还可以分不同区域采用上述S502a、S502b、S502c或它们的结合方式来确定UE不是第一类型UE。
例如,在结合S502a和S502b确定UE不是第一类型UE的情况下,还需要考虑接入所述第二通信网络的请求消息是否是从第一区域发出的。例如,第一区域可设置为距离火车站X公里范围内。当接入所述第二通信网络的请求消息是从第一区域发出的且满足S502a和S502b的判定条件,才确定UE不是第一类型UE。
又如,在结合S502a和S502c确定UE不是第一类型UE的情况下,还需要考虑接入所述第二通信网络的请求消息是否是从第二区域发出的。例如,第二区域可设置为距离火车站Y公里范围外。当接入所述第二通信网络的请求消息是从第二区域发出的且满足S502a和S502c的判定条件,才确定UE不是第一类型UE。
又如,在结合S502a,S502b和S502c确定UE不是第一类型UE的情况下,还需要考虑接入所述第二通信网络的请求消息是否是从第三区域发出的。例如,第一区域可设置为距离火车站Z公里范围外。当接入所述第二通信网络的请求消息是从第三区域发出的且满足S502a,S502b和S502c的判定条件,才确定UE不是第一类型UE。
(5)在UE驻留专网时(即接入高铁公网之前),专网/共享核心网控制面节点设备在UE接入专网后先识别该UE是第二类型UE,并将该身份信息保存于用户上下文中。公网/共享的核心网控制面节点设备可通过从专网/共享核心网控制面节点设备获取用户上下文的方式而确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。
因此,步骤S502可包括:
S502d,第一核心网控制面节点设备(如,公网/共享的MME)向第二核心网控制面节点设备发送用户上下文请求消息,例如,当高铁专网和公网独立部署核心网控制设备时,第二核心网控制面节点设备可以是专网的核心网控制设备。当高铁专网和公网共享部署核心网控制设备时,第二核心网控制面节点设备即为专网和公网共享的核心网设备;
所述第一核心网控制面节点设备接收所述第二核心网控制面节点设备发送的用户上下文响应消息,所述用户上下文响应消息包括所述身份信息;
所述第一核心网控制面节点设备根据所述身份信息确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。
(6)当专网和公网核心网控制面节点设备共享部署时,所述共享核心网控制面节点设备在UE驻留于专网时(也就是接入公网之前),已经识别该UE是第二类型UE,并记录该UE身份标识和第二类型UE之间的映射关系。UE的身份标识包括但不限于国际移动用户识别码(英文:international mobile subscriber identity,简称:IMSI)或全局唯一的临时标识(英文:globally unique temporary identity;简称:GUTI)。当UE脱离专网而接入公网时,核心网控制面节点设备可以通过UE上报的身份标识(如,IMSI或GUTI)查找内部记录的映 射关系而确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。
因此,步骤S502可包括:
S502e,所述第一核心网控制面节点设备接收所述UE上报的身份标识,根据所述身份标识和所述映射关系确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。
(7)当UE驻留于专网时(也就是接入公网之前),UE已经被专网核心网控制面节点设备或共享核心网控制面节点设备识别为第二类型UE,并被专网核心网控制面节点设备或共享核心网控制面节点设备下发专用标识。例如,专用标识可以是专用GUTI,具体专网核心网控制面节点设备或共享核心网控制面节点设备可以通过GUTI重分配消息下发专用GUTI给UE 310,所述专用GUTI中包含专用移动性管理实体编码(英文:mobility management entity code;简称:MMEC)。
因此,步骤S502可包括:
S502f,核心网控制面节点设备接收所述UE上报的专用标识(如,含专用MMEC的GUTI),所述专用标识是在所述UE接入所述第二通信网络前由所述第二核心网控制面节点设备向所述UE下发的,所述专用标识用于指示所述UE为第二类型UE,例如,第二核心网控制面节点设备可以是专网的核心网控制设备。当高铁专网和公网共享部署核心网控制设备时,第二核心网控制面节点设备即为第一核心网控制面节点设备;
所述核心网控制面节点设备根据所述专用标识确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。
(8)核心网控制面节点设备还可以通过公网基站eNodeB的告知而得知UE不是第一类型UE。例如,公网基站在所述UE接入公网时/后,测量所述UE的速度(如,公网基站利用多普勒频偏算法测量UE的速度),若所述UE的速度高于预设值,所述公网基站确定所述UE不是第一类型UE,并发送通知信息至所述核心网控制面节点设备,以通知核心网控制面节点设备所述UE不是第一类型UE。
因此,步骤S502可包括:
S502g,所述核心网控制面节点设备接收所述基站的通知消息,所述通知消息用于指示所述UE不是第一类型UE;
所述第一核心网控制面节点设备根据所述通知消息确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。
需要说明的是,公网基站根据对UE的测速而确定UE不是第一类型UE还可用于其它场景或用途,并不限于本实施例中的描述。
(9)核心网控制面节点设备还可以通过判断所述UE接入公网后,发生TAU流程的频率或连接态下服务ENB改变的频率高于预设值,而识别UE不是第一类型UE。
因此,具体来说,步骤S502可包括以下任一:
S502h1,若核心网控制面节点设备识别出UE在预设时间段内触发移动性管理区域更新流程(如,TAU流程)的次数大于预设值(如,预设值大于1),即,所述UE所在的TA/TA list发生了多次变换,则核心网控制面节点设备确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。
S502h2,对于空闲态UE,当UE发起移动性管理区域更新流程(如,TAU流程)时,若核心网控制面节点设备识别出移动性管理区域更新请求消息(如,TAU请求消息)来自于靠近高铁专网的公网eNodeB,则以设定方式寻呼所述UE设定次数。如果核心网控制面节点设备识别出UE发送的寻呼响应消息中设定数目的消息来自不同的eNodeB且这些不同的eNodeB都为靠近高铁专网的公网eNodeB,则核心网控制面节点设备确定UE不是第一类型UE。其中,核心网控制面节点设备中配置了相关eNodeB信息,用于确定一个eNodeB是否为靠近高铁专网的公网eNodeB。寻呼UE的方式(如时间间隔的设定)可参考公网中eNodeB之间的距离和高铁的速度。
S502h3,对于连接态UE,若核心网控制面节点设备识别出服务于所述UE的基站在预设时间段内变换的次数大于预设值,则确定所述UE不是第一类型UE。
S502h4,对于连接态UE,若核心网控制面节点设备识别出设定数目的服务UE的eNodeB不同,并且这些不同的eNodeB都是靠近高铁专网的公网eNodeB,则核心网控制面节点设备确定UE不是第一类 型UE。其中,核心网控制面节点设备中配置了相关eNodeB信息,用于确定一个eNodeB是否为靠近高铁专网的公网eNodeB。
核心网控制面节点设备通过以上任一方法识别UE不是第一类型UE后,为该UE分配第二SPID值。
