Description

一种无线接入网络切片选择方法和装置 技术领域
本申请涉及但不限于通信技术领域,尤指一种无线接入网络切片选择方法和装置。
背景技术
在当今全面信息化的时代,各行各业的业务数据传输应用需求呈现出爆发式的增长,和传统的3G与4G移动通信系统相比,5G系统面向的应用场景差异性非常大。在未来5G移动网络中,不仅仅需要提供人与人之间的通信,还要为各式各样的物联网海量设备提供各式各样的服务。利用5G移动网络,虚拟现实、高清视频等有超高数据传输速率需求的业务,或者车联网无人驾驶,远程医疗手术等有着低延时超可靠传输服务需求的业务,以及在小型物联网终端(UE,User Equipment)的密集度方面,与移动网络相比,在传输速率、单用户上下行速率、端到端的时延、以及每平方米能够接入的终端UE数量等方面都会有巨大的提升。
传统的面向较有限应用场景的通信网络采用的是单一的无线接入网加上核心网功能固化配置的简单架构,采用这种架构无法满足所有场景的应用需求和性能需求。而如果为每一种场景都建设专网以满足定制的应用需求和性能需求,会造成大量的基础设施或者频谱资源的浪费。网络功能虚拟化(NFV,Network Function Virtualization)技术的发展,使得运营商可以为不同的业务需求构建不同的虚拟网络成为可能。核心网和无线接入网的网络切片技术就是基于通用物理基础设施(包括计算资源,存储资源,传输资源等),对网络进行逻辑上的功能定义和划分,形成端到端的虚拟网络切片。每个虚拟网络切片具备不同的功能性能特点,来动态的满足各种各样的业务需求和商业模式。NFV可以实现软件和硬件的解耦,网络基础设备设施提供商不再需要为不同的客户对象,提供专用的且应用受限的硬件资源,而是可以借助于NFV和软件定义网络(SDN,Software Defined Network)技术,引入客户租户的概念,在同一基础设施上,为不同租户群 进行资源划分,实现租户间的资源和使用隔离。
网络切片将一个物理网络分成多个虚拟的逻辑网络,每一个虚拟网络对应不同的应用场景。也就是说,将一个物理网络切割成多个虚拟的端到端的网络,每个虚拟网络之间包括网络的设备、接入、传输和核心网,这些部分是逻辑独立的,任何一个虚拟网络发生故障都不会影响到其他虚拟网络。每个虚拟网络都具备不同的功能特点,面向不同的需求和服务。

详述
下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例进行清楚、完整地描述。
图1所示为移动网络切片的架构示意图,核心网CN内有一个公共(初始默认)切片Common/Default CN Slice和3三个专有切片Dedicated CN Slice(C1,C2,C3),分别对应着不同的运营商租户;无线接入网RAN内有一个公共(初始默认)切片Common/Default RAN Slice和3三个专有切片Dedicated RAN Slice(A1,A2,A3),分别对应着不同的数据业务类型,例如:类型A1为超高速数据业务,视频业务,虚拟现实等;类型A2为突发小数据包数据业务,如QQ、微信等;类型A3为低时延超可靠数据业务,如车联网无人 驾驶,远程医疗等。每个终端UE用户,通过上报自己的MDD类型属性,让RAN能够选择最匹配合适的网络切片(RAN Slice,RAN Part of NW Slice),此外根据终端UE用户的签约信息和类型等,让CN能够选择最匹配合适的网络切片(CN Slice,CN Parts of NW Slice);如果没有哪个专有的CN/RAN Slice能够匹配,那么网络可以拒绝UE的接入使用,或者把它们关联匹配在Common/Default CN/RAN Slice上,做统一无定制化的普通处理,这种公共模式下,UE获得的数据传输服务通常没有专有切片定制提供的服务好,因此在数据传输功能和性能方面稍弱。
描述了UE在单连接数据传输模式(即和单个通信基站建立维护单条无线电链路(RL,Radio link))下,和RAN/CN切片进行关系匹配的方式;而随着5G系统多连接数据传输技术的发展,终端UE可以同时和多个通信基站建立和维护多条无线连接RL,同时进行着控制面/用户面数据的上下行传输和相关控制反馈。在多连接数据传输模式中,通常有唯一一个主控锚点基站(或者简称主基站)和多个辅助分流基站(或者简称辅基站);主基站主要负责整个多连接操作的建立维护和释放等控制面功能,而辅基站主要负责相关用户面数据的分流转发等功能,从而原本只能在主基站和终端UE之间传输的数据流可以在多个无线数据连接RL中分流传输,这样能够更加充分高效地平衡利用好空口的无线资源,空域,时域,频域等。举例而言,第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partnership Project,3GPP)标准规范的长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)或者长期演进技术升级版(Long Term EvolutionAdvanced,LTE-A)系统,在Rel-12版本中引进了双连接(Dual Connectivity,DC)功能。DC功能使得单个用户设备终端UE(User Equipment,UE)可以同时和两个LTE服务基站主基站(Master Evolved Node B,MeNB)和辅基站(SecondaryEvolved Node B,SeNB)进行无线连接和上下行用户业务数据的收发传输。3GPP标准规范的LTE/LTE-A系统,在Rel-13版本进一步引入了LTE和WLAN聚合(LTE WLAN Aggregation,LWA)功能,即LTE系统和WLAN系统之间在无线接入层进行无线资源的聚合使用,LWA功能使得单个终端UEUE可以同时和LTE服务基站主基站MeNB和WLAN辅基站WT同时进行无线连接和上下行用户业务数据的收发传输。当上述典型的“双连接操作”进一步维度 扩展和混搭组合,可以产生含有更多RL连接的“多连接数据传输模式”,即终端UE和2个及以上服务基站节点的同时连接通信。
参见图2,其示出了移动通信系统中多连接数据传输工作模式,图2中单向细箭头线表示控制信令的传输,双向粗箭头线表示用户业务数据的传输。在多连接数据传输工作模式下,终端UE需要能和各个参与协作分流的基站节点进行合理的RAN SLICE切片选择,从而终端UE不仅在单连接数据传输工作模式下能够享受到更佳的切片服务,在多连接数据传输工作模式下,同样能够享受到更佳的切片服务。
实施例一
参见图3,本发明实施例提供一种无线接入网络切片选择方法,所述方法包括:
S101、核心网和无线接入网中的主基站和相邻辅基站通过接口公共流程,构建网络切片端到端的匹配关联关系。
其中,通过核心网和其所辖的所有基站进行网络切片端到端的匹配和关联,形成核心网和无线接入网各自公共或专有切片的划分匹配关联,其中,核心网切片为CN Slices,无线接入网切片为RAN Slices。随着切片的划分,各切片对应的网络功能和网络资源配置也随之确定。
S102、利用基站节点间接口的公共流程,无线接入网中的主基站和相邻辅基站进行主服务和辅服务RAN Slices信息协同和优先级匹配关联。
无线接入网基站节点之间通过公共信令流程彼此通知和协同各自实时的RAN Slice切分和工作状态,包括在基站节点中当前配置包含的RAN Slice信息,各个RAN Slice的工作状态是否正常,以及负荷状态等等。
根据运营商需求和预定义方式,主基站设置其自身内部的RAN Slice和辅基站内部RAN Slice之间的优先级关联关系。例如,主基站BS1内部有三个Dedicated Master RAN Slice(DMA1,DMA2,DMA3)和一个Common/Default Master RAN Slice(CMA),它的某个相邻辅基站内部有两个Dedicated Secondary RAN Slice(DSA1,DSA2)和一个Common/Default Secondary RAN Slice(CSA),那么主基站需要提前构建和/或修改维护诸如下述合法且含有 优先级关联匹配信息的关系表:
DMA1-{DSA1(第一优先级),DSA2(第二优先级),CSA(第三优先级)},表示主基站内的DMA1首选和DSA1进行匹配关联,形成多连接数据传输操作;其次才是DSA2,CSA。
DMA2-{DSA2(第一优先级),CSA(第二优先级),DSA1(第三优先级)},表示主基站内的DMA2首选和DSA2进行匹配关联,形成多连接数据传输操作;其次才是CSA,DSA1。
DMA3-{CSA(第一优先级),DSA1(第二优先级)},表示主基站内的DMA3首选和CSA进行匹配关联,形成多连接数据传输操作;其次才是DSA1。
CMA-{CSA(第一优先级)},表示主基站内的CMA首选和CSA进行匹配关联,形成多连接数据传输操作,不能和辅基站内其他RAN Slice形成关联匹配。
S103、终端UE将RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息上报至无线接入网中的主基站。
可以理解地,由于终端UE的移动性或者无线环境条件的变化,终端UE向主基站上报无线资源管理(RRM,Radio Resource Management)测量结果,触发主基站进行多连接数据传输操作的建立或者修改。
S104、无线接入网中的主基站根据其自身的本地条件和终端UE上报的RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息,确定目标辅基站。
在主基站为终端UE建立和维护多连接数据传输操作的过程中,需要通过基站节点间专有信令流程,向辅基站传输上述“优先级关联匹配信息的关系表”。由于特定Slice ID或者MDD能够反映出特定终端UE的当前业务特点,因此作为一种特例,主基站也可以把当前正在服务的终端UE的Slice ID或者MDD信息作为“优先级关联匹配信息的关系表”传输至辅基站。
通过上述专有信令流程,将“优先级关联匹配信息的关系表”发给辅基站,作为辅服务RAN SLICE切片的选择参考。当“优先级关联匹配信息 的关系表”中只包含终端UE的Slice ID或者MDD信息时,辅基站侧不存在优先级选择的问题,按照从主基站发来的唯一Slice ID或者MDD信息进行匹配选择。
S105、主基站通过基站节点间接口将辅基站添加/修改请求消息发送至目标相邻辅基站。
主基站通过基站间接口发送的辅基站添加/修改请求消息,包含UE在当前主基站主服务RAN SLICE切片和与之相关的辅服务RAN SLICE切片优先级匹配关联信息,还包含该目标相邻辅基站做多连接操作的其他配置相关信息,上述信息也包括仅仅含有唯一Slice ID或者MDD信息的情况。
S106、目标相邻辅基站根据其自身的本地条件和主基站的配置请求,选择辅服务RAN Slice切片。
目标相邻辅基站基于上述“优先级关联匹配信息的关系表”,其中也包括仅仅含有唯一Slice ID或者MDD信息的情况,根据其自身的本地条件为终端UE选择相应的辅基站RAN Slice。从最高优先级开始考虑,如果该切片条件和工作状态合适,即选择它为终端UE的辅基站RAN Slice;否则按照优先级顺利,选择后面的RAN Slice做匹配关联。如果“优先级关联匹配信息的关系表”包含Slice ID或者MDD信息,则直接按照唯一Slice ID或者MDD信息进行匹配选择。
S107、相邻辅基站通过基站节点间接口发送辅基站添加/修改回复消息至主基站。
辅基站将最终匹配选择的辅基站RAN Slice结果,包括切片标识,Slice ID或者MDD信息等,通过基站节点间专有信令流程,告知主基站,进而主基站通过空口流程,为终端UE建立或维护多连接数据传输操作。UE和主基站上尽量高的优先级RAN Slice匹配关联,同时和辅基站上尽量高的优先级RAN Slice匹配关联。
S108、主基站接收辅基站添加/修改回复消息,通过空口RRC消息配置终端UE进行多连接数据传输操作。
可以理解地,当主基站接收到辅基站发送的辅基站添加/修改回复消息 后,就可以对终端UE进行相应的多连接数据传输配置,实现终端UE的多连接数据传输。
实施例二
本实施例通过在无线接入网的基站中对网络切片进行选择的过程对上述实施例进行详细说明。下面将给出利用NG-Core(Next Generation Core,下一代核心网),eLTE eNB,NR gNB1和NR gNB2四个基站做多连接数据传输操作的四种过程:
实施例一
参见图4,NG-Core内部根据业务种类划分为增强的带宽数据传输业务(eMBB,Enhanced Mobile Broadband),超可靠低时延通讯(URLLC,Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communication),海量巨量机器类型物联网终端通讯(mMTC,Massive Machine Type Communication)三个核心网切片(CN Slice),分别为NG-Core Slice1,NG-Core Slice2,NG-Core Slice3。无线信号覆盖最大的eLTE eNB作为主基站,内部没有做任何专有无线接入网切片(Dedicated RAN Slice)的配置划分,即只有一个公共无线接入网切片(Common/Default RAN Slice)。无线信号覆盖较小的NR gNB1可以作为辅基站进行数据分流,内部配置且划分了一个Common/Default RAN Slice和三个Dedicated RAN Slice,分别对应eMBB,URLLC,mMTC三大类业务。无线信号覆盖较小的NR gNB2可以作为另外一个辅基站进行数据分流,内部配置且划分了一个Common/Default RAN Slice和两个Dedicated RAN Slice,分别对应eMBB,mMTC两大类业务(因此NR gNB2不能高效的支持URLLC类业务);某时刻UE1进入到eLTE eNB,NR gNB1和NR gNB2基站的各自服务信号的共同覆盖区域,因此具备做多链接数据传输的无线条件。其中,eLTE eNB,NR gNB1和NR gNB2为NG-RAN中的基站,NG-Core和NG-RAN之间的接口为NG1。由图4可以看出,NG-Core中的三个核心网切片分别与NG-RAN中的三个基站eLTE eNB,NR gNB1和NR gNB2通过NG1连接。
图4中的CMA为Common/Default Master RAN,即主基站内的公共网络切片,支持所有合法类型的业务和终端。CSA为Common/Default  Secondary RAN Slice,即辅基站内的公共网络切片,支持所有合法类型的业务和终端。DSA为Dedicated Secondary RAN Slice,即辅基站内的专有网络切片,支持特定类型的业务和终端,目的为了能够提供定制化的优化数据传输服务。DSA2/3/4分别对应eMBB,URLLC,mMTC三大类业务,DSA5/6分别对应eMBB,mMTC两大类业务。
在上述场景下,多连接数据传输情况下无线接入网络切片选择的步骤如下:
1、基于NG-Core和eLTE eNB,NR gNB1,NR gNB2基站之间的NG1标准化接口的公共流程CN-RAN Slice Info Exchange,核心网和所辖的所有基站进行网络切片端到端的构建匹配和关联,形成各自的公共或专有CN Slices/RAN Slices的划分匹配和关联。
2、利用基站节点间Xnew标准化接口的公共流程RAN-RAN Slice Info Exchange,主基站eNB和辅基站gNB1,gNB2进行已经构建完毕的主辅服务RAN Slices信息协同和优先级匹配关联,从而主基站eNB能够获悉相邻辅基站gNB1,gNB2内部的RAN Slice配置和划分。基于上述RAN Slice Info协同的结果,主基站eNB可以确定相邻辅基站内RAN Slices和自己的RAN Slices之间特定的优先级匹配关联关系。
3、随着被服务UE1的移动或者无线环境条件的变化,UE1上报了对辅基站目标服务小区的RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息,从而触发主基站eNB进行多连接数据传输操作的建立或者修改。
4、主基站eNB基于UE1的RRM测量上报结果和本地条件,决定进行多连接数据传输操作,且选择gNB1作为目标服务辅基站进行数据分流。
5、主基站eNB通过基站间Xnew接口发送给辅基站gNB1添加/修改请求消息Secondary Node Addition/Modification Request,包含UE1在当前服务主基站eNB内主服务RAN SLICE切片CMA和与之相关的辅服务RAN SLICE切片优先级匹配关联信息(可以用特定逻辑标识表达),如下:
CMA-{DSA2(eMBB第一优先级),CSA1(第二优先级),DSA3(URLLC第三优先级),DSA4(mMTC第四优先级)},还包含辅基站gNB1做多连 接操作的其他配置相关信息。
6、辅基站gNB1接收解析添加/修改请求消息Secondary Node Addition/Modification Request之后,根据主基站eNB的配置请求和本地条件,做出辅服务RAN SLICE切片的选择,从主基站eNB请求的最高优先级RAN SLICE切片开始甄选,最终决定提供DSA2(eMBB第一优先级)作为参与做多连接的辅服务RAN SLICE切片。
7、辅基站gNB1通过基站间Xnew接口向主基站eNB发送辅基站添加/修改回复消息Secondary Node Addition/Modification Response,包含辅基站gNB1选择的辅服务RAN SLICE切片信息DSA2和做多连接操作的其他配置回复相关信息。
8、主基站eNB接收解析Secondary Node Addition/Modification Response之后,确认可以接受辅基站gNB1提供的所有多连接操作的配置信息,通过空口RRC消息(重)配置终端UE 1进行多连接数据传输操作。之后UE1基于eNB内的CMA主服务RAN SLICE切片和gNB1内的DSA2辅服务RAN SLICE切片进行双连接eMBB类数据传输操作。
实施例二
参见图5,NG-Core内部根据业务种类划分为eMBB,URLLC,mMTC三个CN Slice,无线信号覆盖最大的NR gNB1作为主基站,内部配置且划分了一个Common/Default RAN Slice和三个Dedicated RAN Slice,分别对应eMBB,URLLC,mMTC三大类业务;无线信号覆盖较小的eLTE eNB可以作为辅基站进行数据分流,内部配置且划分了一个Common/Default RAN Slice和一个Dedicated RAN Slice,对应着eMBB类业务;无线信号覆盖较小的NR gNB2可以作为另外一个辅基站进行数据分流,内部配置且划分了一个Common/Default RAN Slice和两个Dedicated RAN Slice,分别对应eMBB,URLLC两大类业务;某时刻UE2进入到eLTE eNB,NR gNB1和NR gNB2基站的各自服务信号的共同覆盖区域,因此具备做多链接数据传输的无线条件。图5中的DMA为Dedicated Master RAN Slice,即主基站内的专有网络切片,支持特定类型的业务和终端,目的是为了能够提供定制化的优化数据传输服务。
在上述场景下,多连接数据传输情况下无线接入网络切片选择的步骤如下:
1、基于NG-Core和eLTE eNB,NR gNB1,NR gNB2基站之间的NG2标准化接口的公共流程CN-RAN Configuration Update,核心网和所辖的所有基站进行网络切片端到端的构建匹配和关联,形成各自的公共或专有CN Slices/RAN Slices的划分匹配和关联。
2、利用基站节点间Xnew标准化接口的公共流程CN-RANConfiguration Update,主基站gNB1和辅基站eNB,gNB2进行已经构建完毕的主辅服务RAN Slices信息协同和优先级匹配关联,从而主基站gNB1能够获悉相邻辅基站eNB,,gNB2内部的RAN Slice配置和划分。基于上述RAN Slice Info协同的结果,主基站gNB1可以确定相邻辅基站内RAN Slices和自己的RAN Slices之间特定的优先级匹配关联关系。
3、随着被服务UE2的移动或者无线环境条件的变化,UE2上报了对辅基站目标服务小区的RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息,从而触发主基站gNB1进行多连接数据传输操作的建立或者修改。
4、主基站gNB1基于UE2的RRM测量上报结果和本地条件,决定进行多连接数据传输操作,且选择gNB2作为目标服务辅基站进行数据分流。
5、主基站gNB1通过基站间Xnew接口发送给辅基站gNB2添加/修改请求消息Secondary Node Addition/Modification Request,包含UE2在当前服务主基站gNB1内主服务RAN SLICE切片DMA3和与之相关的辅服务RAN SLICE切片优先级匹配关联信息(可以用特定逻辑标识表达),如下:
DMA3-{DSA6(URLLC第一优先级),CSA2(第二优先级),DSA5(eMBB第三优先级)},还包含辅基站gNB2做多连接操作的其他配置相关信息。
6、辅基站gNB2接收解析添加/修改请求消息Secondary Node Addition/Modification Request之后,根据主基站gNB1的配置请求和本地条件,做出辅服务RAN SLICE切片的选择,从主基站gNB1请求的最高优先级RAN SLICE切片开始甄选,最终决定提供DSA6(URLLC第一优先级)作为参与做多连接的辅服务RAN SLICE切片。
7、辅基站gNB2通过基站间Xnew接口向主基站gNB1发送辅基站添加/修改回复消息Secondary Node Addition/Modification Response,包含辅基站gNB2选择的辅服务RAN SLICE切片信息DSA6和做多连接操作的其他配置回复相关信息。
8、主基站gNB1接收解析Secondary Node Addition/Modification Response之后,确认可以接受辅基站gNB2提供的所有多连接操作的配置信息,通过空口RRC消息(重)配置终端UE 2进行多连接数据传输操作。之后UE2基于gNB1内的DMA3主服务RAN SLICE切片和gNB2内的DSA6辅服务RAN SLICE切片进行双连接URLLC类数据传输操作。
实施例三
参见图6,NG-Core内部根据业务种类划分为eMBB,URLLC,mMTC三个CN Slice,无线信号覆盖最大的NR gNB2作为主基站,内部配置且划分了一个Common/Default RAN Slice和两个Dedicated RAN Slice,分别对应eMBB,URLLC两大类业务;无线信号覆盖较小的eLTE eNB可以作为辅基站进行数据分流,内部配置且划分了一个Common/Default RAN Slice和两个Dedicated RAN Slice,分别对应着eMBB,mMTC两大类业务;无线信号覆盖较小的NR gNB1可以作为另外一个辅基站进行数据分流,内部配置且划分了一个Common/Default RAN Slice和三个Dedicated RAN Slice,分别对应eMBB,URLLC,mMTC三大类业务;某时刻UE3进入到eLTE eNB,NR gNB1和NR gNB2基站的各自服务信号的共同覆盖区域,因此具备做多链接数据传输的无线条件。
在上述场景下,多连接数据传输情况下无线接入网络切片选择的步骤如下:
1、基于NG-Core和eLTE eNB,NR gNB1,NR gNB2基站之间的NG3标准化接口的公共流程CN-RAN Configuration Update,核心网和所辖的所有基站进行网络切片端到端的构建匹配和关联,形成各自的公共或专有CN Slices/RAN Slices的划分匹配和关联。
2、利用基站节点间Xnew标准化接口的公共流程CN-RAN Configuration Update,主基站gNB2和辅基站eNB,gNB1进行已经构建完毕 的主辅服务RAN Slices信息协同和优先级匹配关联,从而主基站gNB2能够获悉相邻辅基站eNB,,gNB1内部的RAN Slice配置和划分。基于上述RAN Slice Info协同的结果,主基站gNB2可以确定相邻辅基站内RAN Slices和自己的RAN Slices之间特定的优先级匹配关联关系。
3、随着被服务UE3的移动或者无线环境条件的变化,UE3上报了对辅基站目标服务小区的RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息,从而触发主基站gNB2进行多连接数据传输操作的建立或者修改。
4、主基站gNB2基于UE3的RRM测量上报结果和本地条件,决定进行多连接数据传输操作,且选择eNB和gNB1同时作为目标服务辅基站进行数据分流。
5、主基站gNB2通过基站间Xnew接口发送给辅基站eNB和gNB1添加/修改请求消息Secondary Node Addition/Modification Request,包含UE3在当前服务主基站gNB2内主服务RAN SLICE切片DMA2和与之相关的辅服务RAN SLICE切片优先级匹配关联信息(可以用特定逻辑标识表达),如下:

7、辅基站eNB和gNB1分别通过基站间Xnew接口向主基站gNB2发送辅基站添加/修改回复消息Secondary Node Addition/Modification  Response,包含辅基站eNB和gNB1各自选择的辅服务RAN SLICE切片信息DSA7和CSA2,和各自做多连接操作的其他配置回复相关信息。

实施例四
参见图5,与实施例二中的图示相同,该实施例四用于对相邻辅基站根据UE4上报的唯一Slice ID或者MDD值选择网络切片的说明。NG-Core内部根据业务种类划分为eMBB,URLLC,mMTC三个CN Slice,无线信号覆盖最大的NR gNB1作为主基站,内部配置且划分了一个Common/Default RAN Slice和三个Dedicated RAN Slice,分别对应eMBB,URLLC,mMTC三大类业务;无线信号覆盖较小的eLTE eNB可以作为辅基站进行数据分流,内部配置且划分了一个Common/Default RAN Slice和一个Dedicated RAN Slice,对应着eMBB类业务;无线信号覆盖较小的NR gNB2可以作为另外一个辅基站进行数据分流,内部配置且划分了一个Common/Default RAN Slice和两个Dedicated RAN Slice,分别对应eMBB,URLLC两大类业务;某时刻UE4进入到eLTE eNB,NR gNB1和NR gNB2基站的各自服务信号的共同覆盖区域,因此具备做多链接数据传输的无线条件。
在上述场景下,多连接数据传输情况下无线接入网络切片选择的步骤如下:
1、基于NG-Core和eLTE eNB,NR gNB1,NR gNB2基站之间的NG2标准化接口的公共流程CN-RAN Configuration Update,核心网和所辖的所有基站进行网络切片端到端的构建匹配和关联,形成各自的公共或专有CN Slices/RAN Slices的划分匹配和关联。
2、利用基站节点间Xnew标准化接口的公共流程CN-RAN Configuration Update,主基站gNB1和辅基站eNB,gNB2进行已经构建完毕 的主辅服务RAN Slices信息协同和优先级匹配关联,从而主基站gNB1能够获悉相邻辅基站eNB,,gNB2内部的RAN Slice配置和划分。基于上述RAN Slice Info协同的结果,主基站gNB1可以确定相邻辅基站内RAN Slices和自己的RAN Slices之间特定的优先级匹配关联关系,决定主辅基站间只能相同类型/租户的RAN Slices可以匹配关联,因此仅仅基于唯一的Slice ID或者MDD值。
3、随着被服务UE4的移动或者无线环境条件的变化,UE4上报了对辅基站目标服务小区的RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息,从而触发主基站gNB1进行多连接数据传输操作的建立或者修改。
4、主基站gNB1基于UE4的RRM测量上报结果和本地条件,决定进行多连接数据传输操作,且选择gNB2作为目标服务辅基站进行数据分流。

8、主基站gNB1接收解析Secondary Node Addition/Modification Response之后,确认可以接受辅基站gNB2提供的所有多连接操作的配置信 息,通过空口RRC消息(重)配置终端UE4进行多连接数据传输操作。之后UE4基于gNB1内的DMA2主服务RAN SLICE切片和gNB2内的DSA5辅服务RAN SLICE切片进行双连接eMBB类数据传输操作。
实施例三
参见图7,本发明实施例提供一种无线接入网络切片选择方法,应用于无线接入网中的主基站,所述方法包括:
S201、无线接入网中的主基站和相邻辅基站分别与核心网构建网络切片端到端的对应关系,根据所述网络切片端到端的对应关系确定主基站与相邻辅基站中的无线接入网切片RAN Slices信息。
可以理解地,无线接入网切片RAN Slices可以划分为公共和专有的网络切片。可以分为主基站内的公共网络切片和专有网络切片,以及辅基站内的公共网络切片和专有网络切片。无线接入网切片RAN Slices确定后其各自对应的网络功能和网络资源配置也随之而确定。这里构建网络切片端到端的对应关系,端到端的数据传输方向一般是从产生业务数据的网络源节点到接受业务数据的网络终节点。S202、主基站根据无线接入网切片RAN Slices信息,建立与相邻辅基站中RAN Slices的优先级匹配关联关系。
参见图8,步骤S202包括步骤S2021和S2022:
S2021、主基站中用作主服务的RAN Slices和与其相邻的辅基站中用作辅服务的RAN Slices通过基站节点间接口的公共流程进行信息协同,交换RAN Slices切分信息与工作状态。
S2022、根据所述信息协同的结果和预设的规则建立主服务RAN Slices与辅服务RAN Slices间的优先级匹配关联关系。
主基站内的网络切片RAN Slices作为主服务切片,与其相邻的辅基站内的网络切片RAN Slices作为辅服务切片。主服务和辅服务网络切片通过公共信令流程彼此通知和协同各自实时的RAN Slices的划分状态和工作状态,以保障他们之间正常的工作交互。
主基站提前构建与辅基站中的网络切片RAN Slices的优先级匹配关联 关系,该优先级匹配关联关系用于主基站中的各个网络切片选择辅基站中的网络切片形成多连接数据传输操作时的优先级别排序,根据优先级匹配关联关系生成一个“优先级关联匹配信息的关系表”。
S203、主基站根据其自身的本地条件和终端UE上报的无线资源管理RRM测量结果和切片标识Slice ID信息从相邻辅基站中确定目标辅基站,并将辅基站添加/修改请求消息与所述优先级匹配关联关系发送至所述目标辅基站。
参见图9,步骤S203包括步骤S2031和S2032:
S2031、主基站根据其自身的本地条件和接收到的终端UE上报的RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息,触发多连接数据传输建立/修改的决策,确定目标辅基站。
S2032、根据多连接数据传输建立/修改的决策,主基站通过基站节点间接口将辅基站添加/修改请求消息发送至目标辅基站。
参见图10,步骤S2031包括步骤S20311和S20312:
S20311、主基站接收终端UE上报的RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息,触发主基站进行多连接数据传输建立/修改的决策。
S20312、主基站根据其自身的本地条件和接收到的终端UE上报的RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息进行多连接数据传输操作,确定满足数据分流条件的相邻辅基站为目标辅基站。
由于终端UE的移动行或者无线环境条件的变化,导致终端UE在基站中的接入状态发生变化。因此主基站根据终端UE的RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息以及其自身的本地条件,为终端UE进行多连接数据传输建立/修改的决策,将主基站的网络切片中的一部分任务量分流至与目标辅基站中,使终端UE在多连接传输工作模式下处于和多个无线接入网基站节点的最佳切片集的连接状态,这里目标辅基站可以为一个或者多个与主基站相邻的辅基站。通过上述的过程主服务RAN Slices和辅服务RAN Slices就可以更好的适配终端UE的不同类型,不同用户以及不同的业务特征,使得终端UE获得更佳的数据传输效果。这里主基站的本地条件包括其当前各个 RAN Slice的划分情况、工作状态是否正常、负荷状态以及资源使用率等条件。
主基站为终端UE建立和维护多连接数据传输操作的过程中,将“优先级关联匹配信息的关系表”传输至目标辅基站,目标辅基站就可以根据主机站发送的辅基站添加/修改请求消息在其自身选择更优的网络切片配合主机站的数据传输任务。
S204、主基站接收目标辅基站发送的辅基站添加/修改回复消息,并通过无线资源控制RRC消息对终端UE进行多连接数据传输配置;其中,所述辅基站添加/修改回复消息中包含所述目标辅基站根据所述优先级匹配关联关系选择的目标辅服务RAN Slices。
可以理解地,目标辅基站发送给主基站的辅基站添加/修改回复消息中包含了目标辅基站最终选定的RAN Slice结果,包括切片标识、Slice ID或者MDD信息等。通过基站节点间专有信令流程,告知主基站,进而主基站通过空口流程,为终端UE建立或维护多连接数据传输操作。UE和主基站上尽量高的优先级RAN Slice匹配关联,同时和辅基站上尽量高的优先级RAN Slice匹配关联。
当UE在主基站上匹配关联的RAN Slice发生改变,通常触发UE在辅基站上匹配关联的RAN Slice也发生随之改变。相反,若UE在辅基站上匹配关联的RAN Slice发生改变,UE在主基站上匹配关联的RAN Slice可能不发生改变。
终端UE既可以和同种类型或者租户的RAN Slice建立多连接数据传输操作,也可以和不同类型或者租户的RAN Slice建立多连接。
本发明实施例提供了一种多连接数据传输的无线接入网络切片选择方法,根据终端UE上报RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息,主基站发送多连接数据传输配置请求信息至相邻辅基站,相邻辅基站根据主基站的配置请求和本地条件做出辅服务RAN Slice切片的选择,主基站根据该辅服务RAN Slice切片的选择信息对终端UE进行多连接数据传输配置,使得终端UE处于和无线接入网中的多个基站节点的最佳切片集,能够更好的适配终端UE的类型、用户和业务特征,获得更佳的数据传输效果。
实施例四
参见图11,本发明实施例提供一种无线接入网络切片选择方法,应用于无线接入网中与主基站相邻的辅基站,所述方法包括:
S301、无线接入网中与主基站相邻的辅基站和主基站分别与核心网构建网络切片端到端的对应关系,根据网络切片端到端的对应关系确定主基站和相邻辅基站中的无线接入网切片RAN Slices信息。
可以理解地,无线接入网切片RAN Slices可以划分为公共和专有的网络切片。可以分为主基站内的公共网络切片和专有网络切片,以及辅基站内的公共网络切片和专有网络切片。无线接入网切片RAN Slices确定后其各自对应的网络功能和网络资源配置也随之而确定。
S302、相邻辅基站确定与主基站根据无线接入网切片RAN Slices信息建立的RAN Slices优先级匹配关联关系。
参见图12,步骤S302包括步骤S3021和S3022:
S3021、相邻辅基站中用作辅服务的RAN Slices和主基站中用作主服务的RAN Slices通过基站节点间接口的公共流程进行信息协同,交换RAN Slices切分信息与工作状态。
S3022、确定与所述主基站根据所述信息协同的结果和预设的规则建立的辅服务RAN Slices与主服务RAN Slices间的优先级匹配关联关系。
主基站内的网络切片RAN Slices作为主服务切片,与其相邻的辅基站内的网络切片RAN Slices作为辅服务切片。主服务和辅服务网络切片通过公共信令流程彼此通知和协同各自实时的RAN Slices的划分状态和工作状态,以保障他们之间正常的工作交互。
主基站提前构建与辅基站中的网络切片RAN Slices的优先级匹配关联关系,该优先级匹配关联关系用于主基站中的各个网络切片选择辅基站中的网络切片形成多连接数据传输操作时的优先级别排序,根据优先级匹配关联关系生成一个“优先级关联匹配信息的关系表”。
S303、确定相邻辅基站中被主基站选定的目标辅基站,所述目标辅基站接收主基站发送的辅基站添加/修改请求消息与所述优先级匹配关联关 系。
可以理解地,在目标辅基站确定之后,目标辅基站会接收到主基站发送的辅基站添加/修改请求消息,该消息包含了终端UE在主基站内的主服务RAN Slices与辅服务RAN Slices优先级匹配关联关系。这里相邻辅基站也可以主动建立优先级匹配关联关系,但是通常由做为锚点控制源的主基站主动去建立优先级匹配关联关系。
S304、目标辅基站根据其自身的本地条件和辅基站添加/修改请求消息,利用优先级匹配关联关系确定目标辅服务RAN Slices,并发送辅基站添加/修改回复消息至主基站;其中,辅基站添加/修改回复消息中包含目标辅基站根据优先级匹配关联关系选择的目标辅服务RAN Slices。
参见图13,步骤S304包括步骤S3041至S3043:
S3041、目标辅基站接收主基站发送的辅基站添加/修改请求消息,结合其自身本地条件,利用优先级匹配关联关系从主基站请求的优先级最高的RAN Slices开始进行选择。
S3042、确定满足本地条件的优先级最高的RAN Slices为目标辅服务RAN Slices。
S3043、目标辅基站通过基站节点间接口发送辅基站添加/修改回复消息至主基站;其中,辅基站添加/修改回复消息中包含目标辅服务RAN Slices。
优先级匹配关联关系中可能只包含终端UE上报的Slice ID或者多维属性描述标识MDD信息,由于特定Slice ID或者MDD信息能够反应出特定终端UE的当前业务特点,因此作为一种特例,主基站可以把当前正在服务的终端UE的Slice ID或者MDD信息包含在优先级匹配关联关系(例如“优先级关联匹配信息的关系表”)中,通过专有信令流程发给辅基站,作为辅服务切片选择的参考。此时辅基站不存在优先级选择的问题,按照从主基站发来的唯一Slice ID或者MDD信息进行匹配选择。
因此步骤S304还包括:
当所述优先级匹配关联关系中仅包含终端UE上报的Slice ID或者多维 属性描述标识MDD信息时,目标辅基站根据所述Slice ID或者MDD信息选择目标辅服务RAN Slices。
目标辅基站接收到主基站发送的辅基站添加/修改请求消息之后,结合其自身的本地条件为来以及优先级匹配关联关系确定目标辅服务RAN Slice。在选定目标辅服务RAN Slice后,目标辅基站就将包含目标辅服务RAN Slice的辅基站添加/修改回复消息发送至主基站,让主基站获知目标辅基站的切片选择。辅基站添加/修改回复消息中除了包含目标辅服务RAN Slice还包含多连接操作的其他配置回复相关信息。这里相邻辅基站的本地条件包括其当前各个RAN Slice的划分情况、工作状态是否正常、负荷状态以及资源使用率等条件。
本发明实施例提供了一种多连接数据传输的无线接入网络切片选择方法,根据终端UE上报RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息,主基站发送多连接数据传输配置请求信息至相邻辅基站,相邻辅基站根据主基站的配置请求和本地条件做出辅服务RAN Slice切片的选择,主基站根据该辅服务RAN Slice切片的选择信息对终端UE进行多连接数据传输配置,使得终端UE处于和无线接入网中的多个基站节点的最佳切片集,能够更好的适配终端UE的类型、用户和业务特征,获得更佳的数据传输效果。
实施例五
参见图14,本发明实施例提供一种无线接入网络切片选择方法,应用于终端UE,所述方法包括:
S401、终端UE上报RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息至无线接入网中的主基站。
可以理解地,RRM可以为网络内终端UE提供业务质量保障,终端UE向主基站上报RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息,可以触发主基站进行多连接数据传输操作的建立或者修改,使得在网络话务量分布不均匀、信道特性因信道衰弱和干扰而起伏变化等情下,灵活分配和动态调整无线传输部分和网络的可用资源,更大程度地提高无线频谱利用率,防止网络拥塞和保持尽可能小的信令负荷。
S402、终端UE接收无线接入网中的主基站发送的对其进行的多连接数据传输配置消息。
终端UE向主基站上报了RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息之后,主基站就根据RRM测量结果和Slice ID信息以及其自身的本地条件,进行多连接数据传输操作判断,为终端UE选择目标辅基站。待目标辅基站选择了最优的网络切片后,主基站将多连接数据传输配置消息发送至终端UE,之后终端UE就可以与主基站的主服务网络切片和目标辅基站中的辅服务网络切片进行多连接数据传输操作。
