Description

D2D/ProSe业务的执行方法及装置 技术领域
本发明涉及通信领域,具体而言,涉及一种D2D/ProSe业务的执行方法及装置。
背景技术
相关技术中,D2D/ProSe(终端直通,Device to Device简称为D2D;近距离业务,Proximity Service简称为ProSe)的整体架构在3GPP TS23.303 Rel12版本中提出,规定D2D/ProSe业务主要基于公共安全和非公共安全两种需求,用户场景分为In Coverage(即2个通信终端均处于LTE网络覆盖的场景)、Partial In Coverage(即1个通信终端处于LTE网络覆盖,1个不在LTE覆盖范围的场景)以及Out-of-Coverage(即2个通信终端都不在LTE网络覆盖的场景),包含直接发现Direct Discovery和直接沟通Direct Communication两个过程。图1是根据相关技术中的用户场景和业务过程对应关系的示意图,如图1所示,展示了D2D/ProSe业务用户场景。
D2D/ProSe业务功能由ProSe discovery(direct或EPC-level)以及ProSe Direct Communication(借助E-UTRAN或WLAN direct)。ProSe discovery能够借助LTE接入或EPC核心网识别出邻近的支持ProSe业务的UE。
ProSe Direct Communication可以支持2个或以上UE在Direct Communication范围内直接建立通信链路。该链路可以使用LTE无线网络或者WLAN。
对于公共安全特殊场景:
支持ProSe公共安全业务的2个或以上UE之间可以直接建立通信链路,不用借助LTE无线网络。
ProSe Direct Communication过程还可以借助ProSe UE-to-Network  Relay来起到LTE网络和UE之间的中继作用。比如没有处于LTE网络覆盖的UE可以通过处于网络覆盖的UE来接收网络广播的紧急安全通知。
Direct Discovery和Direct Communication是两个完全相互独立的业务。Direct Discovery并不是Direct Communication的前置条件。当需要通信的UE均处于LTE网络覆盖时,Direct Discovery过程不论是普通商用还是公共安全场景都需要和网络ProSe Function实体进行交互通信,包含Service授权开通、Discovery请求和回应以及匹配报告(Match Report)。
在相关技术中的技术框架下,标准协议中没有定义D2D/ProSe Discovery过程当UE从LTE覆盖区域移动到无LTE但有支持D2D/ProSe业务的WiFi热点覆盖区域时UE如何判断并无缝切换连接到WLAN上并继续进行D2D/ProSe业务的情况。
针对相关技术中相关技术中UE执行D2D/ProSe业务方式单一的问题,目前还没有有效的解决方案。

实施例1
本申请实施例一所提供的方法实施例可以在移动终端、计算机终端或者类似的运算装置中执行。以运行在移动终端上为例,图2是本发明实施例的一种D2D/ProSe业务的执行方法的移动终端的硬件结构框图。如图2所示,移动终端20可以包括一个或多个(图中仅示出一个)处理器202(处理器202可以包括但不限于微处理器MCU或可编程逻辑器件FPGA等的处理装置)、用于存储数据的存储器204、以及用于通信功能的传输装置206。本领域普通技术人员可以理解,图2所示的结构仅为示意,其并 不对上述电子装置的结构造成限定。例如,移动终端20还可包括比图2中所示更多或者更少的组件,或者具有与图2所示不同的配置。
存储器204可用于存储应用软件的软件程序以及模块,如本发明实施例中的D2D/ProSe业务的执行方法对应的程序指令/模块,处理器202通过运行存储在存储器104内的软件程序以及模块,从而执行各种功能应用以及数据处理,即实现上述的方法。存储器204可包括高速随机存储器,还可包括非易失性存储器,如一个或者多个磁性存储装置、闪存、或者其他非易失性固态存储器。在一些实例中,存储器204可进一步包括相对于处理器202远程设置的存储器,这些远程存储器可以通过网络连接至移动终端20。上述网络的实例包括但不限于互联网、企业内部网、局域网、移动通信网及其组合。

在本实施例中提供了一种运行于上述移动终端的D2D/ProSe业务的执行方法,图3是根据本发明实施例的一种D2D/ProSe业务的执行方法的流程图,如图3所示,该流程包括如下步骤:
步骤S302,用户设备UE检测无线局域网;
步骤S304,该UE确定该无线局域网支持终端直通D2D/近距离业务ProSe业务之后,该UE连接到该无线局域网,并通过该无线局域网进行D2D/ProSe业务。
通过上述步骤,UE在检测到所在区域内存在支持D2D/ProSe业务的无线局域网时,该UE连接到该无线局域网,通过该无线局域网进行D2D/ProSe业务,解决了相关技术中UE执行D2D/ProSe业务方式单一的 问题,增强了UE执行D2D/ProSe业务的灵活性,UE可以实时依据所在场景选择执行D2D/ProSe业务的方式。可选地,上述步骤的执行主体可以为终端等,但不限于此。在后文的可选实施例中例举了如何判断判断无线局域网支持D2D/ProSe业务。可选地,无线局域网可以为无线保真WiFi。可选地,UE检测到存在多个支持D2D/ProSe业务的无线局域网的情况下,选择信号强度最强的无线局域网连接。为保证信息安全,对无线局域网进行鉴权也是可选的步骤。
需要补充的是,在上述实施例中,通过无线局域网进行D2D/ProSe业务,和相关技术中通过LTE无线基站完成D2D业务的授权以及进行D2D/PROSE业务的执行流程相比并无特殊之处,在本发明可选实施例场景中WLAN替代了无线基站用于传递UE和ProSe function之间的数据。无线基站和WLAN都可以看作为UE和ProSe function之间的数据gateway。相关的流程在3GPP 23.303中都有公开描述。
可选地,该UE依据以下方式确定该无线局域网支持D2D/ProSe业务:检测该无线局域网的接入点广播的广播信息的预设字段;在该预设字段指示支持D2D/ProSe业务的情况下,确定该无线局域网支持D2D/ProSe业务。当然也可以在广播信息额外携带一段指示信息,用于指示无线局域网的支持业务。
可选地,该预设字段是对该广播信息中的保留位进行预先定义得到的字段。可选地,预先定义该广播信息中的Bit 13保留位得到该预设字段。可选地,该广播信息为BEACON帧。
可选地,该UE确定该无线局域网支持终端直通D2D/近距离业务ProSe业务之后,确定该无线局域网信号强度高于第一预设值时,该UE连接到该无线局域网,并通过该无线局域网进行D2D/ProSe业务。
可选地,在UE检测无线局域网之前,该UE通过移动通信网络进行D2D/ProSe业务,其中,在该UE检测到该移动通信网络的网络信号低于第二预设值的情况下,该UE检测无线局域网。
可选地,通过所述无线局域网进行D2D/ProSe业务之前,所述方法还包括:所述UE通过所述无线局域网从所述移动通信网络获取所述UE执行D2D/ProSe业务需要的参数配置信息。当移动通信网络为LTE网络时,UE通过无线局域网从LTE EPC中获取执行D2D/ProSe业务所需辅助参数信息。
可选地,该UE向该移动通信网络发送指示信息,其中,该指示信息用于通知该移动通信网络,该UE是否支持通过无线局域网进行D2D/ProSe业务。本实施例是UE通知移动通信网络的,例如,通知基站该UE可以通过无线局域网进行D2D/ProSe业务,基站为该UE收集附近的无线局域网,简化了UE检测无线局域网。
执行本申请文件记载的方法实施例,需要支持D2D/ProSe的终端以及支持D2D/ProSe的无线保真热点WiFi AP两部分。
本发明可选实施例记载的方法适用于支持LTE Rel12及以上接入技术的双模或多模终端,且终端支持D2D、ProSe、IP多媒体系统(IP Multimedia Subsystem,简称为IMS)等业务。
在本发明可选实施例中定义了终端侧的三种D2D/ProSe通信模式,ICDM(In Coverage D2D Mode,包括Partial In Coverage的情况)、OCDM(Out of Coverage D2D Mode)以及WDM(WLAN D2D Mode)。其中,上述三种模式指示含义分别是:
(1)ICDM指UE探测到当前自己处于LTE覆盖服务范围内时会优先借助LTE接入网络来和ProSe Function实体交互,进行D2D/ProSe业务;需要补充的是,ProSe function实体是支持D2D/ProSe业务运营商核心网中的网元。
(2)OCDM指当UE处于无LTE服务且没有搜索到支持D2D/ProSe的WiFi时按照标准规定的流程进行D2D/ProSe业务。
(3)WDM指当UE处于无LTE服务且搜到支持D2D/ProSe的WiFi时按照本发明方案借助WiFi热点进行D2D/ProSe业务。
基于上述定义,下面记载了本发明可选实施例提供的一种D2D服务获取的方法及其装置。终端在进行D2D/ProSe通信的过程中从LTE覆盖区域移动到无LTE覆盖但是有支持D2D/ProSe的WiFi热点区域时,通过该方法及其装置可以判决并切换到WiFi网络以达到正在进行的D2D/ProSe业务不受影响的目的。
D2D服务获取的方法具体的判断和处理方式如下:
步骤一,支持D2D/ProSe业务的2个或多个UE处于LTE网络覆盖区域,在ICDM下进行D2D/ProSe业务;
步骤二,当UE移动到LTE小区信号不满足第二预设值或者移动到无LTE小区信号的区域时启用WiFi模块,扫描周围WiFi信号并根据WiFi AP广播的BEACON来判断该WiFi AP是否支持D2D/ProSe;
步骤三,如果WiFi支持D2D/ProSe则根据预先设定好的算法来评估该WiFi AP的是否满足选择条件,若满足则连接WiFi进入WDM模式并通过该WiFi链路和ProSe Function实体通信;
步骤四,如果没有扫描到支持D2D/ProSe的WiFi或者没有满足最低选择条件的WiFi AP,UE进入OCDM。
下面结合具体实施方式对本发明可选实施例的一种D2D服务获取的方法及其装置进行详细说明,图4是根据本发明可选实施例的一种D2D服务获取方法的流程示意图,具体为:
步骤S401,支持D2D/ProSe的UE在ICDM模式(In-Coverage D2D通信模式)下通过LTE网络进行D2D/ProSe通信;
步骤S402,UE在D2D/ProSe通信过程中检测当前LTE服务信号是否满足第二预设值或者是否还有LTE覆盖;若UE发现无LTE服务信号满足第二预设值或当前无LTE覆盖,进行步骤S403;否则返回步骤S401;
步骤S403,检查UE是否支持WLAN D2D(即WDM模式)功能,若支持则进入步骤S404,若不支持则进入步骤S410;
在这一步骤中,UE在注册到LTE网络中可以携带指示用于告知LTE网络该UE是否支持WDM模式,下面是UE注册LTE网络时发送的附着请求中新定义一个字段,以下是字段的详细内容:
首先介绍相关技术中的UE在Attach request-UE network capability中上报是否支持ProSe业务的字段:
TS24.301 Rel12 9.9.3.34 UE network capability
ProSe(octet 7,bit 7)
This bit indicates the capability for ProSe.
0  ProSe not supported
1  ProSe supported
ProSe direct discovery(ProSe-dd)(octet 7,bit 8)
This bit indicates the capability for ProSe direct discovery.
0  ProSe direct discovery not supported
1  ProSe direct discovery supported
ProSe direct communication(ProSe-dc)(octet 8,bit 1)
This bit indicates the capability for ProSe direct communication.
0  ProSe direct communication not supported
1  ProSe direct communication supported
Bits 8 to 2 of octet 8 are spare and shall be coded as zero.
在上述字段的基础上,可以增加一个标志位指示UE是否支持ProSe的WLAN direct discovery and communication,比如:
ProSe WLAN direct discovery(ProSe-wdd)(octet 8,bit 2)
This bit indicates the capability for ProSe WLAN direct discovery.
0  ProSe WLAN direct discovery not supported
1  ProSe WLAN direct discovery supported
ProSe WLAN direct communication(ProSe-wdc)(octet 8,bit 3)
This bit indicates the capability for ProSe WLAN direct communication.
0  ProSe WLAN direct communication not supported
1  ProSe WLAN direct communication supported
步骤S404,UE启动WiFi热点信号扫描,进入步骤S405;
步骤S405,判断是否扫描到支持D2D/ProSe的WiFi且WiFi信号满足阈值条件;若满足则进入步骤S406;若不满足则进入步骤S410;
步骤S406,将满足条件的热点标记按照强度进行排列并按顺序自动与WiFi热点尝试建立连接,进入S407;
步骤S407,是否连接WiFi热点并鉴权成功;若是则进入步骤S408;若不是则进入步骤S410;
步骤S408,UE通过WiFi连接从LTE EPC(演进型分组核心网,EvolvedPacket Core network)网络获得D2D/ProSe通信所需辅助参数信息,进入步骤S409;
步骤S409,UE进入WDM模式,通过WiFi网络进行D2D/ProSe通信;后台周期性对LTE网络情况进行扫描并进入步骤S402判断;
步骤S410,UE进入OCDM模式(out-of-coverage D2D模式)。
在上述可选实施例的方法步骤中,UE需要判断WiFi热点是否支持D2D/ProSe且满足阈值条件,基于该需求,可以为支持D2D/ProSe业务的WiFi热点做好标记。
图5是根据本发明可选实施例的UE判断WiFi热点是否支持D2D/ProSe服务且满足阈值条件的评估方法的流程图,如图5所示,展示的是图4中步骤S405的详细步骤,具体为:
步骤S501,UE扫描到WiFi热点信号并读取其广播的BEACON帧或者其他广播信息并进入步骤S502。
步骤S502,在设置WiFi时,根据802.11n协议7.3.2.56.2 HT Capabilities Info field,启用Bit13这个保留位,扩展定义一个ProSe capability字段,若ProSe capability=1表明该WiFi AP支持D2D/ProSe,若ProSe capability=0表明该WiFi AP不支持D2D/ProSe。图6是根据本发明可选实施例中的原始802.11n协议HT Capabilities Info field字段结构示意图,如图6所示,在本发明可选实施例中扩展的是Bit13这个保留位。图7是根据本发明自定义扩充802.11n协议HT Capabilities Info field字段结构示意图,如图7所示,将Bit13这个保留位进行了相应填充。
基于图7的设置,UE对BEACON帧中的ProSe capability字段做判断,若为1则进入S503,若为0则进入S505。
步骤S503,在终端NV(non-volatile)中定义两个参数,一个是WiFi热点信号达标阈值Sthrottle,另一个是用于防止终端判断WiFi热点信号是否达标乒乓效应的滞带参数Sw_offset(类似于误差,不可避免,设置一个正负值的范围)。
若当前WiFi热点信号RSSI的测量值Swifi大于等于Sthrottle+Sw_offset则进行步骤S504。举个例子,比如在NV中设定Sthrottle为-80dbm,Sw_offset为2,当前测量到的服务WiFi热点信号RSSI为-75dbm,那么Sthrottle+Sw_offset=-80+2=-78dbm,这时RSSI>Sthrottle+Sw_offset,满足条件,执行步骤S504。
若不满足则继续进行步骤S505。举个例子,比如当前测量到的服务WiFi热点信号RSSI为-79dbm,那么RSSI<Sthrottle+Sw_offset,则不满足条件,执行步骤S505。
由于信号都存在较微小的变动范围(比如前一秒和后一秒相差2db),这时通过Sw_offset参数就能够有效避免乒乓效应。两次测量有一定间隔时间,该控制参数也定义在NV中,Tmeas_backoff,单位毫秒。
步骤S504,完成WiFi热点切换检测。
步骤S505,UE进入OCDM模式。
