Abstract

Description

一种用户终端的管理方法及相关设备 技术领域
本发明实施例涉及移动通信技术领域,具体涉及一种用户终端的管理方法及相关设备。
背景技术
车联网是以车内网、车际网和车载移动互联网为基础,按照约定的通信协议和数据交互标准,在车与外界(Vehicle to X,V2X)之间,进行无线通讯和信息交换的大系统网络,能够实现智能化交通管理、智能动态信息服务和车辆智能化控制。其中,X包括车、路、行人及互联网等。
在车联网中,用户终端(User Equipment,UE)在进行V2X数据业务时,核心网侧,即演进型分组系统(Evolved Packet System,EPS)主要有两种资源调度方式,基站统一调度资源和UE从基站侧获取的资源池中自主选择资源。其中,在基站统一调度资源的方式下,UE需要一直处于无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)连接态,这样才能保证在需要发送V2X消息时,UE能够及时从基站侧申请资源,以满足V2X消息发送的时延要求。
在现有技术中,在UE处于RRC连接态时,一般也处于演进型分组系统连接管理(Evolved Packet System Connection management,ECM)连接态,而当UE处于ECM连接态时,一旦服务小区变更,就会触发切换。考虑到车辆的高移动性,在进行V2X业务时,UE的服务小区必然会频繁发生变化,从而会导致频繁的切换。而在切换过程中网络侧会产生大量信令,这就会给网络造成严重的信令负荷。
发明内容
本发明实施例公开了一种用户终端的管理方法及相关设备,能够减小网络的信令负荷。
本发明实施例第一方面公开了一种用户终端UE的管理方法,应用于移动管理实体MME,该方法可以包括:
MME在接收第一请求消息后,可以根据该第一请求消息发起第一过程以使UE进入目标状态;其中,该第一请求消息用于请求使UE进入目标状态,在目标状态下,UE与源基站s-eNB之间存在RRC连接,不存在数据无线承载DRB,s-eNB与服务网关SGW之间不存在该UE的用户面接口S1-U承载,且在UE的服务基站发生变化的情况下,s-eNB与目标基站t-eNB之间传递该UE的上下文。
MME通过发起第一过程使UE进入目标状态的方式,可以使UE与s-eNB之间存在RRC连接,但是不存在DRB,而s-eNB与SGW之间也不存在该UE的S1-U承载,这样在UE的服务基站发生变化的情况下,s-eNB与目标基站之间只需要传递该UE的上下文,不需要重新建立DRB,也不需要SGW修改该UE的S1-U承载,从而可以减少处于ECM连接态的UE在切换过程中网络侧的信令负荷。
作为一种可行的实施方式,MME接收第一请求消息具体可以包括:
MME接收由处于ECM连接态的UE在第一时间段内没有数据传输的情况下,经s-eNB发送的第一请求消息;
或者,
MME接收由s-eNB在检测到处于ECM连接态的UE在第二时间段内没有数据传输,且该UE正在进行V2X业务的情况下发送的第一请求消息;
或者,

作为另一种可行的实施方式,如果该UE处于ECM连接态,那么MME发起的第一过程具体可以包括:
MME在接收第一请求消息后,向SGW发送第二请求消息,其中,该第二请求消息用于请求SGW删除该UE的S1-U承载;MME在接收到SGW发送的该第二请求消息的响应消息后,会向s-eNB发送指示消息,以使s-eNB删除该UE的上下文中该SGW的相关信息,并配置该UE释放与s-eNB之间的DRB。
进一步的,该指示消息可以携带第一信息,该第一信息用于通知该UE进入目标状态。
进一步的,MME在向s-eNB发送指示消息之后,该方法还可以包括:
MME接收s-eNB发送该指示消息的响应消息,其中,该指示消息的响应消 息用于指示该SGW的相关信息已删除且该UE与s-eNB之间的DRB释放完成。
作为又一种可行的实施方式,如果MME接收由处于ECM连接态的UE经s-eNB发送的第一请求消息,那么该方法还可以包括:
MME在接收到第一请求消息后,删除与s-eNB的除在MME中该UE的控制面接口S1-AP连接标识MME UE S1 AP ID之外的S1-AP连接的连接信息或挂起与s-eNB的S1-AP连接,并指示s-eNB挂起与MME的S1-AP连接;
或者,

或者,
MME在接收到第一请求消息后,保留与s-eNB的S1-AP连接,并指示s-eNB保留与MME的S1-AP连接。
可以理解的是,如果s-eNB挂起与该MME的S1-AP连接,且MME删除与该s-eNB的除MME UE S1 AP ID之外的S1-AP连接的连接信息或者挂起与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接,或者,如果s-eNB删除与该MME的S1-AP连接的连接信息,且MME删除与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接的连接信息,该UE在MME中由ECM连接态进入ECM空闲态。如果s-eNB保留与该MME的S1-AP连接,且MME也保留与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接,那么该UE在MME中仍然处于ECM连接态。
作为又一种可行的实施方式,如果MME接收由s-eNB发送的第一请求消息,那么该方法还可以包括:
MME可以在接收到第一请求消息后或者在接收到指示消息的响应消息后,删除与s-eNB的除MME UE S1 AP ID之外的S1-AP连接的连接信息或挂起与s-eNB的S1-AP连接;
或者,
MME可以在接收到第一请求消息后或者在接收到指示消息的响应消息后,删除与s-eNB的S1-AP连接的连接信息;
或者,
MME可以在接收到第一请求消息后或者在接收到指示消息的响应消息后,保留与s-eNB的S1-AP连接。
作为又一种可行的实施方式,如果该UE处于ECM空闲态,那么第一请求消息可以为扩展服务请求,该扩展服务请求包括用于指示无需为该UE建立S1-U承载和DRB的标识,因此,MME发起的第一过程具体可以包括:
MME从该UE的上下文中获取到该UE的V2X相关信息后,可以根据该扩展服务请求向s-eNB发送第三请求消息,其中,该第三请求消息包括该UE的V2X相关信息,该第三请求消息用于请求s-eNB为该UE建立V2X相关的上下文。
作为又一种可行的实施方式,MME根据第一请求消息发起第一过程以使该UE进入目标状态之后,该方法还可以包括:
如有SGW处检测到该UE有下行业务,那么MME会接收到SGW发送的关于该UE的下行业务传输通知;如果此时UE处于目标状态且处于ECM空闲态,那么MME会向该MME所管理的eNB(也即是该UE所属的跟踪区列表TA list内的所有基站)发送寻呼paging消息,其中,该paging消息包括该UE的寻呼标识和该UE处于目标状态的指示,该指示用于指示接收到paging消息的eNB检查是否保存有该UE的寻呼标识。
可见,在UE有下行业务的情况下,MME会向该UE的所属的TA list内的所有基站发送paging消息,接收到paging消息的基站在保存有该UE的寻呼标识的情况下会与MME建立S1-AP连接,从而为UE调度资源。

eNB可以向MME发送用于请求使该UE进入目标状态的第一请求消息,MME在接收到该请求消息后,会发起第一过程以使该UE进入目标状态。在第一过程中,eNB会根据指示删除SGW的相关信息,并配置UE释放DRB,从而使得UE在目标状态下与基站之间存在RRC连接,但是不存在DRB,而eNB与SGW之间也不存在该UE的S1-U承载。这样既可以满足UE在进行V2X业务时需要处于RRC连接态的需求,而在UE的服务基站发生变化的情况下,源基站与目标基站之间只需要传递该UE的上下文,不需要重新建立DRB,也不需要SGW修改该UE的S1-U承载,从而可以减少处于ECM连接态的UE在切换过程中网络侧的信令负荷。

具体实施方式
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。
本发明实施例公开了一种用户终端的管理方法及相关设备,能够减小网络的信令负荷。以下分别进行详细说明。
为了更好的理解本发明实施例公开的一种UE的管理方法及相关设备,下面先对本发明实施例适用的EPS系统架构进行描述。请参阅图1,图1是本发明实施例公开的一种EPS系统架构示意图。在图1所示的架构中,包括演进分组核心网(Evolved Packet Core,EPC)、演进型通用陆基无线接入网(Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network,E-UTRAN)和互联网Internet。其中,EPC由移动性管理实体(Mobility Management Entity,MME)、服务网关(Serving Gateway,SGW)、分组数据网网关(PacketDataNetworkGateway, PGW)等组成,MME负责EPC的信令处理部分,SGW负责EPC的数据处理部分,PGW负责与Internet连接;E-UTRAN主要是由UE和基站(eNode B,eNB)组成,UE可以包括但不限于汽车、公交车、自行车、电动车等交通工具,以及GPS车载定位终端、车载娱乐终端、车载信息终端等,本发明实施例不做限定;Internet可以包括车联网等,具体可以包括对等实体(Peer Entity,PE),如应用服务器。
在EPS系统中,MME的主要功能是支持非接入层(Non-Access Stratum,NAS)信令及其安全、跟踪区域(Tracking Area,TA)列表的管理、PGW和SGW的选择、跨MME切换时进行MME的选择、用户的鉴权、漫游控制以及承载管理等。SGW是终止于E-UTRAN接口的网关,其主要功能是进行eNB间切换时,作为本地锚定点,并协助完成eNB的重排序功能等。PGW是面向分组数据网络(PacketDataNetwork,PDN)终结于SGi接口的网关,其主要功能包括基于用户的包过滤功能、合法侦听功能、UE的IP地址分配功能以及进行基于业务的上下行速率的控制等。eNB的功能可以包括:无线资源管理(Radio Resource Management,RRM)、网络之间的互连协议(Internet Protocol,IP)头压缩及用户数据流加密、UE附着时的MME选择、寻呼信息的调度传输、广播信息的调度传输、设置和提供eNB的测量等。
在EPS系统中,UE与eNB之间建立有无线承载(Radio Bearer,RB),包括信令无线承载(Signalling Radio Bearer,SRB)和数据无线承载(Data Radio Bearer,DRB),其中,SRB用于在UE与eNB之间传输信令,如RRC信令,DRB用于在UE与eNB之间传输数据。根据承载的信令不同,SRB分为SRB0、SRB1和SRB2。其中,SRB0承载RRC连接建立之前的RRC信令;SRB1承载RRC信令(可能携带一些NAS信令)和SRB2建立之前的NAS信令;SRB2承载NAS信令,SRB2优先级低于SRB1,在安全模式完成后才能建立SRB2。eNB与SGW之间建立有S1承载,如用户面接口(S1User,S1-U)承载;eNB与MME之间建立有S1接口的应用协议(S1 Application Protocol,S1-AP)连接。SRB与S1-AP连接统称为NAS连接,DRB与S1-U承载统称为E-UTRAN的无线接入承载(E-UTRAN Radio Access Bearer,E-RAB)。
此外,SGW与PGW之间建立有S5/S8承载,PGW与Internet之间建立有外部承载,即Gi接口的承载,实现与Internet之间的数据信息交互。当然, UE与PGW之间也可以之间建立EPS承载,UE与PE之间建立端对端服务(End-to-end Service)。
基于图1所示的EPS系统,本发明实施例公开了一种UE的管理方法。请参阅图2,图2是本发明实施例公开的一种UE的管理方法的流程示意图。如图2所示,该UE的管理方法可以包括以下步骤:
201、MME接收第一请求消息。
本发明实施例中,第一请求消息用于请求使UE进入目标状态。第一请求消息可以由UE发送给MME,也可以由UE的源基站s-eNB发送给MME,本发明实施例不做限定。所谓请求MME使UE进入目标状态,是指MME在收到第一请求消息后,发起使UE进入到目标状态的第一过程。
本发明实施例中,如果UE在MME中处于ECM连接态,在现有技术中,UE必定在s-eNB中处于RRC连接态。因此,第一请求消息可以由UE在第一时间段内没有数据传输的情况下经过s-eNB发送给MME;也可以由s-eNB在检测到UE在第二时间段内没有数据传输的情况下发送给MME。其中,第一时间段可以是UE预先设置的,也可以是s-eNB配置给UE的,第二时间段可以是s-eNB预先设置的,也可以是s-eNB根据网络负载情况实时调整的,第二时间段可以与第一时间段相同,也可以不同,本发明实施例不做限定。如果UE在MME中处于ECM空闲态,UE在有V2X业务传输需求时,可以直接向MME发送第一请求消息,请求将其配置为目标状态。
需要说明的是,在目标状态下,UE与s-eNB之间存在RRC连接,但是不存在DRB,s-eNB与SGW之间也不存在S1-U承载。s-eNB与SGW之间不存在S1-U承载可以理解为:s-eNB与SGW之间删除该UE的S1-U承载上下文,或者s-eNB与SGW之间该UE的S1-U承载为未激活状态。第一请求消息可以是定义的一个新消息,也可以是现有的消息,该现有的消息携带有用于请求使UE进入目标状态的标识或指示,本发明实施例不做限定。例如,s-eNB在向MME发送UE的上下文释放请求(UE Context Release Request)时,携带有特殊原因值,该特殊原因值用于请求使该UE进入目标状态。
具体的,该目标状态可以称为RRC轻连接模式(RRC-connected light mode) 状态,简称轻连接态,或者称为RRC连接但是ECM空闲状态(RRC-CONNECTED but ECM-IDLE state),本发明实施例不做限定。
202、该MME根据该第一请求消息发起第一过程以使UE进入目标状态。
本发明实施例中,MME在接收到第一请求消息后,就会根据该第一请求消息发起第一过程以使该UE进入目标状态,在第一过程完成后,该UE即可进入到目标状态。其中,如果UE处于ECM连接态,MME发起第一过程以使UE进入目标状态是由MME、s-eNB、SGW以及UE协作完成的,如果UE处于ECM空闲态,MME发起第一过程以使UE进入目标状态是由MME、s-eNB以及UE协作完成的。
那么在第一过程完成后,UE就会处于目标状态。在目标状态下,UE可以进行V2X业务。在目标状态下,如果UE的服务基站发生变化,在切换基站的过程中,仅仅需要s-eNB与目标基站t-eNB之间传递UE的上下文。
可见,在图2所描述的方法中,MME在接收到用于请求使UE进入目标状态的请求消息后,会发起第一过程以使该UE进入目标状态,从而使得UE在目标状态下与基站之间存在RRC连接,但是不存在DRB,而基站与SGW之间也不存在该UE的S1-U承载。这样既可以满足UE在进行V2X业务时需要处于RRC连接态的需求,而在UE的服务基站发生变化的情况下,源基站与目标基站之间只需要传递该UE的上下文,不需要重新建立DRB,也不需要SGW修改该UE的S1-U承载,从而可以减少处于ECM连接态的UE在切换过程中网络侧的信令负荷。
基于图1所示的EPS系统,本发明实施例公开了另一种UE的管理方法。请参阅图3,图3是本发明实施例公开的另一种UE的管理方法的流程示意图。如图3所示,该UE的管理方法可以包括以下步骤:
301、UE通过附着(Attach)或者服务请求(service request)进入连接态,s-eNB从UE的上下文中获取UE的V2X相关信息。
本发明实施例中,UE通过Attach过程或者service request进入连接态,该连接态是指在MME中处于ECM连接态。
本发明实施例中,如果该UE是V2X终端,那么s-eNB就可以从该UE的上下文中获取到该UE的V2X相关信息。该V2X相关信息可以包括V2X能力信息等,本发明实施例不做限定。
302、s-eNB检测UE在第二时间段内没有数据传输。
303、s-eNB检测UE正在进行V2X业务。
本发明实施例中,s-eNB在检测到该UE没有上下行数据传输时,就会启动非活动定时器(inactive timer),当inactive timer超时,即定时器计时得到该UE没有上下行数据传输所持续的时间达到第二时间段,s-eNB会检测该UE的上下文中是否包含V2X相关信息,如果包含有V2X相关信息,那么表明该UE为V2X终端,正在进行V2X业务。
304、s-eNB向MME发送第一请求消息。
本发明实施例中,s-eNB在确定该UE在第二时间段内没有数据传输,且该UR正在进行V2X业务后,会生成第一请求消息,并将该第一请求消息发送给MME。该第一请求消息用于请求使UE进入目标状态,该目标状态可以称为RRC-connected light mode或者RRC-CONNECTED but ECM-IDLE state。
需要说明的是,第一请求消息可以为UE的上下文释放请求(UE context Release request),那么在UE context Release request中,可以携带特殊原因值,如cause=light mode activate,用于请求以使该UE进入轻连接态;该第一请求消息还可以为定义的一个新消息,比如S1-AP连接挂起请求(S1-AP connection suspend request),本发明实施例不做限定。
305、MME接收该第一请求消息,向SGW发送第二请求消息。
本发明实施例中,MME在接收到第一请求消息后,会向SGW发送第二请求消息,该第二请求消息用于请求SGW删除该UE的S1-U承载。其中,该第二请求消息具体可以为释放无线承载请求(Release Access Bearers Request)。
306、SGW接收第二请求消息,删除与s-eNB之间的该UE的S1-U承载。
本发明实施例中,SGW在接收到第二请求消息后,会删除与该s-eNB之间的该UE的S1-U承载。
307、SGW向MME返回第二请求消息的响应消息。
本发明实施例中,SGW在删除与s-eNB之间的该UE的S1-U承载之后,会 向MME返回该第二请求消息的响应消息,具体可以是释放无线承载响应(Release Access Bearers Response)。
308、MME接收第二请求消息的响应消息,向s-eNB发送指示消息。
本发明实施例中,MME在接收到第二请求消息的响应消息后,会向s-eNB发送指示消息,该指示消息用于指示s-eNB删除该UE的上下文中该SGW的相关信息,并指示s-eNB配置该UE释放与s-eNB之间的DRB。其中,该SGW的相关信息可以包括但不限于SGW的IP地址和S1-U的隧道端点标识TEID(Tunnel Endpoint Identifier)。
具体的,该指示消息可以为UE上下文释放指示(UE context release command),其中,UE context release command中还可以携带原因值,如cause=light mode activate,还可以为定义的一个新消息,比如S1-AP连接挂起响应(S1-AP connection suspend response),本发明实施例不做限定。
309、s-eNB接收该指示消息,删除该UE的上下文中SGW的相关信息。
310、s-eNB向UE发送释放DRB的配置消息。
本发明实施例中,s-eNB在接收到该指示消息后,会根据该指示消息删除该UE的上下文中SGW的相关信息,并向UE发送释放DRB的配置消息,该配置消息具体可以为RRC Connection Reconfiguration。其中,该配置消息用于指示该UE释放与该s-eNB之间的DRB,s-eNB可以是删除该UE的上下文中SGW的所有相关信息,也可以是删除SGW的部分相关信息,本发明实施例不做限定。
311、UE接收该配置消息,释放与s-eNB之间的DRB。
本发明实施例中,该UE在接收到该配置消息后,就可以根据该配置消息释放与s-eNB之间的DRB,UE从而进入目标状态。
优选的,UE在完成释放与s-eNB之间的DRB之后,还可以向s-eNB发送该配置消息的响应消息,用于通知s-eNB该UE的DRB释放完成,那么s-eNB在接收到该配置消息的响应消息,且完成删除该UE的上下文中SGW的相关信息之后,可以向MME返回该指示消息的响应消息,该指示消息的响应消息用于指示SGW的相关信息已删除且该UE与该s-eNB之间的DRB释放完成。
优选的,MME向s-eNB发送的指示消息中,还可以携带有第一信息,该第一信息用于通知该UE进入目标状态。也就是说,s-eNB在接收到该指示消息后, 会将该第一信息转发给该UE,从而通知该UE进入目标状态。
需要说明的是,s-eNB可以是在向该UE发送配置消息时携带该第一信息,也可以单独将第一信息发送给该UE,本发明实施例不做限定。
优选的,s-eNB在检测到UE正在进行V2X业务的情况下,在向MME发送第一请求消息之前,还可以挂起与该MME的S1-AP连接,并在第一请求消息中携带用于请求该MME删除与该s-eNB的除在该MME中该UE的S1-AP连接标识(MME UE S1 AP ID)之外的S1-AP连接的连接信息,或者挂起与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接。那么MME可以在接收到第一请求消息后删除与该s-eNB的除MME UE S1 AP ID之外的S1-AP连接的连接信息或者挂起与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接;也可以在接收到s-eNB返回的指示消息的响应消息后删除与该s-eNB的除MME UE S1 AP ID之外的S1-AP连接的连接信息或者挂起与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接,这样可以防止在配置UE进入目标状态过程中失败时,UE的状态与MME记录的状态不一致,本发明实施例不做限定。
可以理解的是,在s-eNB挂起与该MME的S1-AP连接,并且MME删除与该s-eNB的除MME UE S1 AP ID之外的S1-AP连接的连接信息或者挂起与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接之后,该UE在MME中由ECM连接态进入ECM空闲态。
需要说明的是,挂起是指s-eNB保存了S1-AP连接的连接信息,但S1-AP连接是处于未激活状态。
优选的,s-eNB在检测到UE正在进行V2X业务的情况下,在向MME发送第一请求消息之前,还可以删除与该MME的S1-AP连接的连接信息,并在第一请求消息中携带用于请求该MME删除与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接的连接信息,或者挂起与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接。那么MME可以在接收到第一请求消息后删除与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接的连接信息;也可以在接收到s-eNB返回的指示消息的响应消息后删除与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接的连接信息,这样可以防止在配置UE进入目标状态过程中失败时,UE的状态与MME记录的状态不一致,本发明实施例不做限定。
可以理解的是,在s-eNB删除与该MME的S1-AP连接的连接信息,并且MME删除与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接的连接信息之后,该UE在MME中由ECM连接态进入ECM空闲态。
优选的,s-eNB在检测到UE正在进行V2X业务的情况下,在向MME发送第一请求消息之前,还可以保留与该MME的S1-AP连接,并在第一请求消息中携带用于请求该MME保留与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接。那么MME可以在接收到第一请求消息后会保留与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接;也可以在接收到s-eNB返回的指示消息的响应消息后保留与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接,本发明实施例不做限定。
可以理解的是,如果s-eNB保留与该MME的S1-AP连接,并且MME也保留与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接,那么该UE在MME中仍然处于ECM连接态。
请一并参阅图4,图4是本发明实施例公开的一种UE在目标状态下的切换流程示意图。在图4所示的流程示意图的应用场景为处于ECM连接态的UE在不同基站下的小区之间进行切换。如图4所示,该切换流程包括:
11)UE向s-eNB发送测量报告(Measurement Report)。
12)s-eNB根据测量报告为UE选择一个目标小区,同时检查UE的上下文,s-eNB根据该UE的上下文确定该UE处于目标状态且在MME中处于ECM连接态,并确定出s-eNB与目标小区所属的目标基站t-eNB之间支持基于X2接口的切换,那么就会执行如下步骤。
13)s-eNB向t-eNB发送切换请求(Handover Request),该请求中不包含E-RAB配置列表,进一步的,该请求中还可以携带新的原因值,即cause=V2X handover,用于表示该UE具有V2X能力。
14)~16)为正常的切换流程,即t-eNB为该UE配置目标小区的资源,然后UE接入到目标小区。
17)UE在接入到目标小区后,t-eNB会向MME发送路径转换请求(PathSwitchRequest),该请求中不携带E-RABs Swiched in Downlink list。MME在收到不携带E-RABs Swiched in Downlink list的路径转换请求后,仅仅更新该UE的S1-AP承载,从而不会更新该UE的S1-U承载。
18)MME在完成该UE的S1-AP承载的更新后,会向t-eNB返回路径转换响应(PathSwitch Ack)。
19)t-eNB在接收到Path Switch Ack后,会通知s-eNB释放UE上下文,从而完成了UE的小区切换。
在现有技术中,如果UE处于ECM连接态,且该UE的服务基站发生变化, s-eNB与t-eNB在对该UE进行切换的过程中,由于s-eNB与MME之间存在该UE的S1-U承载,那么MME还需要更新该UE的S1-U承载,而本发明实施例是在支持V2X业务的同时,不需要更新该UE的S1-U承载。
可见,在图3所描述的方法中,在UE处于ECM连接态时,第一请求消息可以是s-eNB发送给MME。MME在发起第一过程以使具有V2X能力的UE进入目标状态后。在UE进入目标状态后,如果该UE的服务基站发生变化,在切换过程中,MME不需要更新该UE的S1-U承载,从而在一定程度上能够减少网络侧的信令负荷。进一步的,该UE处于目标状态下,还可以满足V2X业务的时延要求。
基于图1所示的EPS系统,本发明实施例公开了又一种UE的管理方法。请参阅图5,图5是本发明实施例公开的又一种UE的管理方法的流程示意图。如图5所示,该UE的管理方法可以包括以下步骤:
501、处于ECM连接态的UE检测该UE在第一时间段内没有数据传输。
需要说明的是,UE进入ECM连接态的方式可参见图4中401,本发明实施例不再赘述。
本发明实施例中,该UE具备V2X能力,UE在处于连接态(在s-eNB中处于RRC连接态,在MME中处于ECM连接态)时,如果没有上下行数据传输,会启动目标状态定时器,如light mode timer,当light mode timer超时,即定时器计时得到该UE没有上下行数据传输所持续的时间达到第一时间段,该UE会生成第一请求消息。
502、UE向s-eNB发送第一请求消息。
本发明实施例中,该UE会将该第一请求消息发送给s-eNB,其中,该第一请求消息用于请求使UE进入目标状态。
需要说明的是,第一请求消息可以为PDN的连接中断请求(PDN connection suspend request),那么在PDN connection suspend request中,可以携带特殊原因值,如cause=light mode activate,用于请求以使该UE进入轻连接态,或者是RRC-CONNECTED but ECM_IDLE state;该第一请求消息还可以为定义的一个新消息,本发明实施例不做限定。
503、s-eNB接收该第一请求消息,并将该第一请求消息转发给MME。
本发明实施例中,该s-eNB在接收到第一请求消息后,会将该第一请求消息转发给MME。
504~510与305~311相同,本发明实施例不再赘述。
优选的,UE在完成释放与s-eNB之间的DRB之后,还可以向s-eNB发送该配置消息的响应消息,用于通知s-eNB该UE的DRB释放完成,那么s-eNB在接收到该配置消息的响应消息,且完成删除该UE的上下文中SGW的相关信息之后,可以向MME返回该指示消息的响应消息,该指示消息的响应消息用于指示SGW的相关信息已删除且该UE与该s-eNB之间的DRB释放完成。
优选的,MME向s-eNB发送的指示消息中,还可以携带有第一信息,该第一信息用于通知该UE进入目标状态。也就是说,s-eNB在接收到该指示消息后,会将该第一信息转发给该UE,从而通知该UE进入目标状态。
优选的,MME在接收到第一请求消息后,还可以删除与该s-eNB的除MME UE S1 AP ID之外的S1-AP连接的连接信息或者挂起与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接,并指示s-eNB挂起与该MME的S1-AP连接。其中,该指示可以是MME单独发送给该s-eNB的,也可以是携带在向该s-eNB发送的指示消息中的,本发明实施例不做限定。
可以理解的是,在s-eNB挂起与该MME的S1-AP连接,并且MME删除与该s-eNB的除MME UE S1 AP ID之外的S1-AP连接的连接信息或者挂起与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接之后,该UE在MME中由ECM连接态进入ECM空闲态。
优选的,MME在接收到第一请求消息后,还可以删除与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接的连接信息,并指示s-eNB删除与该MME的S1-AP连接的连接信息。
可以理解的是,在s-eNB删除与该MME的S1-AP连接的连接信息,并且MME删除与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接的连接信息之后,该UE在MME中由ECM连接态进入ECM空闲态。
优选的,MME在接收到第一请求消息后,还可以保留与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接,并指示s-eNB保留与该MME的S1-AP连接。
可以理解的是,如果s-eNB保留与该MME的S1-AP连接,并且MME也保留与该s-eNB的S1-AP连接,那么该UE在MME中仍然处于ECM连接态。
进一步的,该UE在处于目标状态的情况下,如果SGW有该UE的下行数据业务,且该UE此时在MME中处于ECM连接态,该MME在接收到数据业务通知时,会发起E-RAB Set up request消息在eNB上重建E-RAB,那么eNB会通过RRC Connection Reconfiguration为UE配置DRB,MME在接收到eNB发送的响应消息后,会通知SGW恢复该UE的S1-U的下行承载。如果该UE需要发送上行数据,会向MME发送扩展服务请求(extended service request),MME在收到extended service request后,通过E-RAB set up request消息在eNB上重建E-RAB,eNB则会通过Radio Bearer establishment流程为UE配置DRB,MME在接收到eNB发送的响应消息后,会通知SGW恢复该UE的S1-U的下行承载。
可见,在图5所描述的方法中,在UE处于ECM连接态时,第一请求消息可以是UE经s-eNB发送给MME。MME会发起第一过程以使具有V2X能力的UE进入目标状态。在UE进入目标状态后,如果该UE的服务基站发生变化,在切换过程中,MME不需要更新该UE的S1-U承载,从而在一定程度上能够减少网络侧的信令负荷。进一步的,该UE处于目标状态下,还可以满足V2X业务的时延要求。
基于图1所示的EPS系统,本发明实施例公开了又一种UE的管理方法。请参阅图6,图6是本发明实施例公开的又一种UE的管理方法的流程示意图。如图6所示,该UE的管理方法可以包括以下步骤:
601、处于ECM空闲态的UE在有V2X业务传输需求的情况下,向MME发送扩展服务请求。
本发明实施例中,具有V2X能力的UE如果在有V2X业务传输需求时,会向MME发送第一请求消息,具体可以是通过驻留基站向MME发送第一请求消息,该第一请求消息具体可以为扩展服务请求。其中,该扩展服务器请求可以携带一个标识,如inactive flag,该标识用于指示该UE处于目标状态,不需要为该UE建立S1-U承载和DRB。
602、MME接收该扩展服务请求,从该UE的上下文中获取该UE的V2X相关信息。
本发明实施例中,MME在接收到携带该标识的扩展服务请求后,会先对 该UE进行身份验证,具体可以是从该UE的上下文信息中获取该UE的V2X相关信息。如果获取到该V2X相关信息,表明该UE具备V2X能力,才会向MME发送第三请求消息。其中,该V2X相关信息可以包括但不限于V2X能力信息、V2X的服务质量QoS信息等
603、MME向s-eNB发送第三请求消息。
本发明实施例中,MME在获取到该UE的V2X相关信息后,会向s-eNB发送第三请求消息,该第三请求消息具体可以为Initial Context Setup Request。该第三请求消息包括该UE的V2X相关信息,用于请求s-eNB为该UE建立V2X相关的上下文。该第三请求消息不会携带E-RAB to be set up list。
604、s-eNB接收该第三请求消息,为UE建立V2X相关的上下文。
本发明实施例中,s-eNB在接收到该第三请求消息后,会获取到该UE的V2X相关信息。那么s-eNB在根据该第三请求消息为该UE建立上下文的同时,还会通过RRC连接重配置流程通知UE已经获得了UE的上下文,该UE从而进入目标状态,在目标状态下进行V2X业务传输。
需要说明的是,由于扩展服务请求包括用于指示不需要为该UE建立S1-U承载和DRB,那么MME在接收到扩展服务请求后,不会为该UE建立S1-U承载,s-eNB也不会为该UE配置DRB。
优选的,MME给s-eNB发送的第三请求消息中还可以包括第一信息,该第一信息用于通知该UE进入目标状态。那么s-eNB在接收到该第三请求消息,且通过RRC连接重配置流程通知UE已经获得了UE的上下文后,还可以向该UE发送第一信息,从而通知该UE已进入目标状态。其中,该第一信息可以是携带于RRC连接重配置消息中,也可以是独立于RRC连接重配置消息,本发明实施例不做限定。
605、SGW向MME发送该UE的下行业务传输通知。
本发明实施例中,在该UE处于目标状态后,如果SGW有该UE的下行数据业务,会向MME发送该UE的下行业务传输通知,MME从而会接收到该UE的下行业务传输通知。
606、MME接收该UE的下行业务传输通知,如果该UE处于目标状态且处于ECM空闲态,MME向该MME所管理的eNB发送寻呼paging消息。
本发明实施例中,MME在接收到该UE的下行业务传输通知后,首先会检查该UE的上下文,如果确定该UE此时在MME中处于ECM空闲态,且该UE处于目标状态,那么就会向该MME所管理的所有基站发送paging消息。其中,该paging消息可以包括该UE的寻呼标识,以及用于指示该UE处于目标状态的指示。其中,该寻呼标识可以包括临时身份标识(S-Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity,S-TMSI)或者国际移动用户识别码(International Mobile Subscriber Identity,IMSI)等;该指示用于指示接收到该paging消息的eNB检查是否保存有该UE的寻呼标识。
可以理解的是,MME所管理的所有基站主要是指该UE所属的跟踪区列表(Tracking Area List,TA list)内的所有基站。
607、s-eNB接收该paging消息,并检查是否保存有该UE的寻呼标识。
本发明实施例中,接收到该paging消息的eNB,假设为s-eNB,可以检查是否存在相同的寻呼标识。如果存在相同的寻呼标识,就表明该s-eNB保存有该UE的寻呼标识;如果不存在相同的寻呼标识,就表明该s-eNB并没有保存有该UE的寻呼标识。
608、如果保存有该UE的寻呼标识,s-eNB与MME建立S1-AP连接。
如果该s-eNB保存有该UE的寻呼标识,就表明该UE在s-eNB所覆盖的网络中,s-eNB从而会与MME建立S1-AP连接,这样该UE就会退出目标状态,从而可以进行数据传输。
609、如果没有保存该UE的寻呼标识,s-eNB丢弃该paging消息。
如果该s-eNB并没有保存该UE的寻呼标识,就表明该UE不在s-eNB所覆盖的网络中,s-eNB从而会丢弃该paging消息。
同样的,UE所属的TA list内的其他基站在接收到该paging消息后,也会执行相同操作,本发明实施例不再赘述。
请一并参阅图7,图7是本发明实施例公开的另一种UE在目标状态下的切换流程示意图。在图7所示的流程示意图的应用场景为处于ECM空闲态的UE在不同基站下的小区之间进行切换。如图7所示,该切换流程包括:
21)UE向s-eNB发送Measurement Report。
22)s-eNB根据测量报告为UE选择一个目标小区,同时检查UE的上下文, s-eNB根据该UE的上下文确定该UE处于目标状态且在MME中处于ECM空闲态,并确定出s-eNB与目标小区所属的目标基站t-eNB之间支持基于X2接口的切换,那么就会执行如下步骤。
23)向t-eNB发送Handover Request,该请求携带新的原因值,例如cause=ECM IDLE handover,并且该请求中还包括有该UE的上下文信息。
24)t-eNB在接收该UE的切换请求后,如果同意该UE切换到目标小区,会向s-eNB发送Handover Request Ack。
25)s-eNB接收到Handover Request Ack后,会通过RRC重配置消息通知该UE该目标小区的接入信息。
26)UE在获取到目标小区的接入信息后,会通过RRC重配置消息接入到t-eNB。
27)在完成该UE的小区切换后,t-eNB会通知s-eNB释放该UE上下文。
在现有技术中,处于ECM空闲态的UE在切换过程中,t-eNB在完成切换后,还会向MME发送Path Switch Request,以通知MME该UE的服务基站发生了变化。MME在接收到该UE的服务基站发生了变化的Path Switch Request后,还会向SGW发送Modify Bearer Request,以请求SGW修改该UE的S1_U承载,MME在接收到SGW的Modify Bearer Response后,从而向t-eNB返回Path Switch Request Ack。由于本发明实施例中,该UE处于目标状态,MME与SGW之间不存在该UE的S1-U承载,那么在进行基于X1接口的基站切换时,是不需要SGW更新该UE的S1-U承载。
请一并参阅图8,图8是本发明实施例公开的又一种UE在目标状态下的切换流程示意图。在图8所示的流程示意图的应用场景为处于ECM空闲态的UE在不同基站下的小区之间进行切换。如图8所示,该切换流程包括:
31)UE向s-eNB发送Measurement Report。
32))s-eNB根据测量报告为UE选择一个目标小区,同时检查UE的上下文,s-eNB根据该UE的上下文确定该UE处于目标状态且在MME中处于ECM空闲态,并确定出s-eNB与目标小区所属的目标基站t-eNB之间不支持基于X2接口的切换(如s-eNB和t-eNB之间没有X2接口,或者s-eNB和t-eNB不能连接到相同的MME),那么就会向s-MME发送Handover Request,该请求携带新的原因 值,例如cause=ECM IDLE handover,该请求中包括该UE的上下文信息
33)~34)s-MME从而将该UE的上下文发送给t-eNB所属的t-MME,由t-MME发送给t-eNB
35)~37)t-eNB准备好资源之后,回复切换确认消息,经由t-MME和s-MME发给s-eNB。
38)s-eNB把目标小区的资源通过RRC重配消息配置给UE。
39)~310)UE给t-eNB回复RRC重配完成消息,同时指示t-MME切换完成。
311)进行跟踪区更新(Tracking Area Update,TAU)流程。
312)~313)切换完成后一段时间,s-MME通知s-eNB释放UE的上下文。
在现有技术中,处于ECM空闲态的UE在切换过程中,UE给t-eNB回复RRC重配完成消息,同时指示t-MME切换完成,t-MME还会向SGW发送Modify Bearer Request,以请求SGW修改该UE的S1_U承载,并将t-eNB的IP地址和域TEID告诉给SGW,在t-MME接收到SGW的Modify Bearer Response后才会进行TAU流程。
可见,在图6所描述的方法中,在UE处于ECM空闲态,如果UE有V2X业务传输需求,MME会发起第一过程以使该UE进入目标状态。在UE进入目标状态后,如果该UE的服务基站发生变化,在切换过程中,MME不需要向SGW发送Modify Bearer Request,不需要SGW修改该UE的S1-U承载,从而在一定程度上能够减少切换过程中网络侧的信令负荷。进一步的,该UE处于目标状态下,还可以满足V2X业务的时延要求。
基于图1所示的EPS系统,本发明实施例公开了一种移动管理实体MME。请参阅图9,图9是本发明实施例公开的一种MME的结构示意图。如图9所示,该MME900可以包括收发模块901和处理模块902,其中:
收发模块901,用于接收第一请求消息,其中,该第一请求消息用于请求使UE进入目标状态。
处理模块902,用于根据该第一请求消息发起第一过程以使UE进入目标状态。
其中,在目标状态下,该UE与s-eNB之间存在RRC连接,但是不存在DRB, s-eNB与SGW之间也不存在S1-U承载。那么当UE的服务基站发生变化时,s-eNB与t-eNB之间只需要传递该UE的上下文,而不需要更新该UE的S1-U承载。
具体实现中,收发模块901接收第一请求消息的具体方式可以包括:
方式一、在UE处于ECM连接态的情况下,接收由UE在第一时间段内没有数据传输的情况下经s-eNB发送的第一请求消息。
方式二、在UE处于ECM连接态的情况下,接收由s-eNB在检测到UE在第二时间段内没有数据传输,且该UE正在进行V2X业务时发送的第一请求消息。
方式三、在UE处于ECM空闲态的情况下,接收由UE在有V2X业务传输需求时发送的第一请求消息。
进一步的,处理模块902根据该第一请求消息发起第一过程以使UE进入目标状态的具体方式可以为:
在UE处于ECM连接态,且在收发模块901接收到第一请求消息的情况下,控制收发模块901向SGW发送第二请求消息,其中,该第二请求消息用于请求SGW删除该UE的S1-U承载;
控制收发模块901接收SGW发送的该第二请求消息的响应消息;
控制收发模块901向s-eNB发送指示消息,这样可以使s-eNB在接收到指示消息后删除该UE的上下文中该SGW的相关信息,并配置该UE释放与该s-eNB之间的DRB。
上述方式应用到将ECM连接态的UE配置为目标状态的场景。
进一步的,处理模块902根据该第一请求消息发起第一过程以使UE进入目标状态的具体方式还可以为:
在UE处于ECM空闲态,第一请求消息为扩展服务请求,且该扩展服务请求包括用于指示无需为UE建立S1-U承载和DRB的标识的情况下,从该UE的上下文中获取该UE的V2X相关信息。

在一种实现方式中,如果收发模块901接收的第一请求消息是由UE经s-eNB发送的,那么处理模块902还可以删除与s-eNB的除MME UE S1 AP ID之外的S1-AP连接的连接信息,或者挂起与s-eNB的S1-AP连接,并指示s-eNB挂起与MME900的S1-AP连接。其中,挂起是指保留有S1-AP连接的连接信息,但S1-AP连接出于未激活状态。此时UE在MME900中处于ECM空闲态。
如果收发模块901接收的第一请求消息是由UE经s-eNB发送的,那么处理模块902还可以删除与s-eNB的S1-AP连接的连接信息,并指示s-eNB删除与MME900的S1-AP连接的连接信息。此时UE在MME900中处于ECM空闲态。
如果收发模块901接收的第一请求消息是由UE经s-eNB发送的,那么处理模块902还可以保留与s-eNB的S1-AP连接,并指示s-eNB保留与MME900的S1-AP连接。此时UE在MME900中仍然处于ECM连接态。
在另一种实现方式中,如果收发模块901接收的第一请求消息是由s-eNB发送的,s-eNB在发送第一请求消息或者在发送指示消息的响应消息之前,可以先挂起与MME900的S1-AP连接,那么处理模块902在接收到第一请求消息或者指示消息的响应消息之后,也会删除与s-eNB的除MME UE S1 AP ID之外的S1-AP连接的连接信息,或者挂起与s-eNB的S1-AP连接。此时UE在MME900中处于ECM空闲态。
如果收发模块901接收的第一请求消息是由s-eNB发送的,s-eNB在发送第一请求消息或者在发送指示消息的响应消息之前,可以先删除与MME900的S1-AP连接的连接信息,那么处理模块902在接收到第一请求消息或者指示消息的响应消息之后,也会删除与s-eNB的S1-AP连接的连接信息。此时UE在MME900中处于ECM空闲态。
如果收发模块901接收的第一请求消息是由s-eNB发送的,s-eNB在发送第一请求消息或者在发送指示消息的响应消息之前,可以保留与MME900的S1-AP连接,那么处理模块902在接收到第一请求消息或者指示消息的响应消息之后,也会保留与s-eNB的S1-AP连接。此时UE在MME900中处于ECM连接态。
优选的,收发模块901还可以接收SGW发送的该UE的下行业务传输通知, 如果该UE处于目标状态,且在MME900中处于ECM空闲态,会进一步向MME900所管理的所有eNB发送paging消息,该paging消息包括该UE的寻呼标识和该UE处于目标状态的指示。其中,该指示用于指示接收到paging消息的eNB检查是否保存有该UE的寻呼标识。
基于图1所示的EPS系统,本发明实施例公开了另一种MME。请参阅图10,图10是本发明实施例公开的另一种MME的结构示意图。如图10所示,该MME1000可以包括收发器1001和处理器1002,其中:
收发器1001,用于接收第一请求消息,其中,该第一请求消息用于请求使UE进入目标状态。

其中,在目标状态下,该UE与s-eNB之间存在RRC连接,但是不存在DRB,s-eNB与SGW之间也不存在S1-U承载。那么当UE的服务基站发生变化时,s-eNB与t-eNB之间只需要传递该UE的上下文,而不需要更新该UE的S1-U承载。
具体实现中,收发器1001接收第一请求消息的具体方式可以包括:
方式一、在UE处于ECM连接态的情况下,接收由UE在第一时间段内没有数据传输的情况下经s-eNB发送的第一请求消息。
方式二、在UE处于ECM连接态的情况下,接收由s-eNB在检测到UE在第二时间段内没有数据传输,且该UE正在进行V2X业务时发送的第一请求消息。

控制收发器1001接收SGW发送的该第二请求消息的响应消息;
控制收发器1001向s-eNB发送指示消息,这样可以使s-eNB在接收到指示消息后删除该UE的上下文中该SGW的相关信息,并配置该UE释放与该s-eNB之 间的DRB。
上述方式应用到将ECM连接态的UE配置为目标状态的场景。
进一步的,处理器1002根据该第一请求消息发起第一过程以使UE进入目标状态的具体方式还可以为:

上述方式应用到将ECM空闲态的UE配置为目标状态的场景。
优选的,收发器1001向s-eNB发送的指示消息可以携带第一信息,该第一信息用于通知该UE进入目标状态。
优选的,收发器1001还可以接收s-eNB发送的该指示消息的响应消息,该指示消息的响应消息用于指示s-eNB已删除该SGW的相关信息,且该UE与s-eNB之间的DRB释放完成。
优选的,如果收发器1001接收的第一请求消息是由UE经s-eNB发送的,那么处理器1002还可以删除与s-eNB的除MME UE S1 AP ID之外的S1-AP连接的连接信息,或者挂起与s-eNB的S1-AP连接,并指示s-eNB挂起与MME1000的S1-AP连接。其中,挂起是指保留有S1-AP连接的连接信息,但S1-AP连接出于未激活状态。此时UE在MME1000中处于ECM空闲态。
优选的,如果收发器1001接收的第一请求消息是由UE经s-eNB发送的,那么处理器1002还可以删除与s-eNB的S1-AP连接的连接信息,并指示s-eNB删除与MME1000的S1-AP连接的连接信息。此时UE在MME1000中处于ECM空闲态。
优选的,如果收发器1001接收的第一请求消息是由UE经s-eNB发送的,那么处理模块902还可以保留与s-eNB的S1-AP连接,并指示s-eNB保留与MME1000的S1-AP连接。此时UE在MME1000中仍然处于ECM连接态。

优选的,如果收发器1001接收的第一请求消息是由s-eNB发送的,s-eNB在发送第一请求消息或者在发送指示消息的响应消息之前,可以先删除与MME1000的S1-AP连接的连接信息,那么处理器1002在接收到第一请求消息或者指示消息的响应消息之后,也会删除与s-eNB的S1-AP连接的连接信息。此时UE在MME1000中处于ECM空闲态。
优选的,如果收发器1001接收的第一请求消息是由s-eNB发送的,s-eNB在发送第一请求消息或者在发送指示消息的响应消息之前,可以保留与MME1000的S1-AP连接,那么处理器1002在接收到第一请求消息或者指示消息的响应消息之后,也会保留与s-eNB的S1-AP连接。此时UE在MME1000中处于ECM连接态。
优选的,收发器1001还可以接收SGW发送的该UE的下行业务传输通知,如果该UE处于目标状态,且在MME1000中处于ECM空闲态,会进一步向MME1000所管理的所有eNB发送paging消息,该paging消息包括该UE的寻呼标识和该UE处于目标状态的指示。其中,该指示用于指示接收到paging消息的eNB检查是否保存有该UE的寻呼标识。
可见,在图9或图10所描述的MME中,MME在接收到用于请求使UE进入目标状态的请求消息后,会发起第一过程以使该UE进入目标状态,从而使得UE在目标状态下与基站之间存在RRC连接,但是不存在DRB,而基站与SGW之间也不存在该UE的S1-U承载。这样既可以满足UE通过RRC连接实时进行V2X业务的需求,而在UE的服务基站发生变化的情况下,源基站与目标基站之间只需要传递该UE的上下文,不需要重新建立DRB,也不需要SGW修改该UE的S1-U承载,从而可以减少处于RRC连接态的UE在切换过程中网络侧的信令负荷。
基于图1所示的EPS系统,本发明实施例公开了一种基站eNB。请参阅图11,图11是本发明实施例公开的一种eNB的结构示意图。如图11所示,该eNB1100可以包括收发模块1101和处理模块1102,其中:

或者,收发模块1101在发送第一请求消息或者指示消息的响应消息之前,处理模块1102保留与MME的S1-AP连接,那么收发模块1101发送的第一请求消息或者指示消息的响应消息中还可以用于请求MME保留与eNB1100的S1-AP连接。这样就可以UE仍然处于ECM连接态。
优选的,在UE处于目标状态且处于ECM空闲态的请求下,收发模块1101还可以接收MME发送的paging消息,该paging消息包括UE的寻呼标识和该UE处于目标状态的指示。处理模块1102从而可以根据该指示检查eNB1100是否保存有该UE的寻呼标识。如果确定保存有该UE的寻呼标识,处理模块1102会控制收发模块1101与MME建立S1-AP连接。如果没有保存该UE的 寻呼标识,处理模块1102会丢弃该paging消息。

优选的,收发器1201还可以向该MME发送该指示消息的响应消息,其中,该指示消息的响应消息用于指示该SGW的相关信息已删除且该UE与eNB1200之间的DRB释放完成。
具体的,收发器1201向MME发送的第一请求消息可以是接收到UE发送的第一请求消息,该第一请求消息是UE在第一时间段内没有数据传输时发送给eNB1200的。
具体的,收发器1201向MME发送的第一请求消息还可以是处理器1202 在检测到该UE在第二时间段内没有数据传输,且该UE正在进行V2X业务的情况下生成的。
在一种实现方式中,在收发器1201接收的指示消息还用于指示eNB1200挂起与MME的S1-AP连接的情况下,处理器1202还可以挂起与MME的S1-AP连接,此时MME侧已删除与eNB1200的除MME UE S1 AP ID之外的S1-AP连接的连接信息或挂起与eNB1200的S1-AP连接。此时UE在MME中处于ECM空闲态。

可见,在图11或图12所描述的eNB中,eNB可以在处于ECM连接态的UE长时间没有数据传输的请求下,向MME发送用于请求使该UE进入目标状态的第一请求消息,MME在接收到该请求消息后,会发起第一过程以使该UE进入目标状态。在第一过程中,eNB会根据指示删除SGW的相关信息,并配置UE释放DRB,从而使得UE在目标状态下与基站之间存在RRC连接,但是不存在DRB,而eNB与SGW之间也不存在该UE的S1-U承载。这样既可以满足UE在进行V2X业务时需要处于RRC连接态的需求,而在UE的服务基站发生变化的情况下,源基站与目标基站之间只需要传递该UE的上下文,不需要重新建立DRB,也不需要SGW修改该UE的S1-U承载,从而可以减少处于ECM连接态的UE在切换过程中网络侧的信令负荷。

通过这种方式,当UE1300的服务基站发生变化时,UE1300在切换过程中,SGW不需要更新UE1300的S1-U承载。

优选的,收发器1401还可以接收s-eNB发送的第一信息,该第一信息用于通知UE1400进入目标状态。该第一信息可以是携带在配置消息中,本发明实施例不做限定。
可见,在图13或图14所描述的UE中,如果UE处于ECM连接态,该UE会在长时间没有数据传输的情况下向MME发送用于请求使该UE进入目标状态的第一请求消息;如果UE处于ECM空闲态,该UE会在有V2X业务传输需求的情况下向MME发送用于请求使该UE进入目标状态的第一请求消息。MME在接收到该请求消息后,会发起第一过程以使该UE进入目标状态。从而使得UE在目标状态下与基站之间存在RRC连接,但是不存在DRB,而eNB与SGW之间也不存在该UE的S1-U承载。这样既可以满足UE在进行V2X业务时需要处于RRC连接态的需求,而在UE的服务基站发生变化的情况下,源基站与目标基站之间只需要传递该UE的上下文,不需要重新建立DRB,也不需要SGW修改该UE的S1-U承载,从而可以减少处于ECM连接态的UE在切换过程中网络侧的信令负荷。
基于图1所是的EPS系统,本发明实施例公开了一种UE的管理系统。请参阅图15,图15是本发明实施例公开的一种UE的管理系统的结构示意图。如图15所示,该系统可以包括UE151、s-eNB152、MME153、SGW154以及t-eNB155,其中:

UE151在处于ECM空闲态,且有V2X业务传输的情况下,会向MME153发送第一请求消息,该第一请求消息用于请求使UE151进入目标状态。
UE151在处于ECM连接态,且长时间没有数据传输的情况下,也可以向MME153发送第一请求消息。
s-eNB152也可以在检测到处于ECM连接态的UE151长时间没有数据传输的情况下,向MME153发送第一请求消息。

具体的,如果UE151当前处于ECM连接态,那么第一过程是需要SGW154删除与s-eNB152之间的该UE151的S1-U承载;s-eNB152也需要从UE151的上下文中删除SGW154的相关信息;UE151也需要删除与s-eNB152之间的DRB。
具体的,如果UE151当前处于ECM空闲态,那么第一过程只需要s-eNB152为UE151建立V2X相关的上下文,而不需要s-eNB152与SGW154之间建立UE151的S1-U承载,也不需要s-eNB152为UE151配置DRB。
可见,在图15所是的UE的管理系统中,MME在接收到用于请求让UE进入目标状态的请求消息后,会发起第一过程以使该UE进入目标状态,从而使得UE在目标状态下与基站之间存在RRC连接,但是不存在DRB,而基站与SGW之间也不存在该UE的S1-U承载。这样既可以满足UE通过RRC连接实时进行V2X业务的需求,而在UE的服务基站发生变化的情况下,源基站与目标基站之间只需要传递该UE的上下文,不需要重新建立DRB,也不需要SGW修改该UE的S1-U承载,从而可以减少处于RRC连接态的UE在切换过程中网络侧的信令负荷。
