Description

一种MA配置方法、系统及设备
本申请要求于2017年05月27日提交中国专利局、申请号为201710392437.8、发明名称为“一种MA配置方法、系统及设备”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本发明涉及数据处理领域,具体涉及一种多媒体广播多播业务单频网络区域MA配置方法、系统及设备。
背景技术
演进式的多媒体广播多播业务(英文:evolved Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service;缩写:eMBMS)支持在LTE系统中提供多播广播网络,将应用于公共安全、抢险救灾、轨交等场景的关键任务(英文:mission critical;缩写:MC)业务与eMBMS结合,能够有效提高MC业务的覆盖范围、降低终端功耗、节约时频资源等。
实际应用中,将eMBMS与MC业务结合后,小区可以采用多媒体广播多播业务单频网络(英文:Multimedia Broadcast multicast service Single Frequency Network;缩写:MBSFN)传输会话。但是,由于MBSFN传输只在配置有媒体广播多播业务单频网络区域(英文:MBSFN Area;缩写:MA)的小区中进行,所以,为了保证小区中可以正常进行MBSFN传输,需要为小区配置MA。
目前,对MA的配置主要采用的方式为:预先建立小区(英文:cell)与MA的映射关系。当采用MBSFN传输会话时,利用cell与MA的映射关系,在配置有MA的小区中进行MBSFN传输。目前,对于尚未完成MA配置的小区是不能参与本次MBSFN传输会话,只能等待下一次配置MA完成后,才能够进行MBSFN传输会话。
但是,由于MC业务通常对实时性的要求较高,显然,目前的配置MA的方式并不能满足MC业务的实时性需求。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请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申请一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例,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,都属于本申请保护的范围。
由于采用MBSFN传输会话的小区需要配置有MA,而目前为小区静态配置MA的方式,不能满足MC业务的实时性需求。
基于此,本发明提供了一种多媒体广播多播业务单频网络区域配置方法,具体的,在接收到来自移动管理实体MME的多播会话消息后,根据多播会话消息中携带的第一标识,确定多播会话的目标小区,并为尚未配置MA的目标小区配置MA,最终将目标小区与MA的映射关系发送至该目标小区所属的基站,实现动态配置MA的功能,能够满足MC业务的实时性需求。
为此,本发明实施例提供了一种多媒体广播多播业务单频网络区域配置方法,参考图1,为本发明实施例提供的一种多媒体广播多播业务单频网络区域配置方法的信令交互图,所述方法具体可以包括:
S101:MCE接收来自MME的多播会话消息,其中,所述多播会话消息携带第一标识,所述第一标识用于确定多播会话的目标小区。
本发明实施例中,移动管理实体(英文:Mobility Management Entity;缩写:MME)在接收到任一业务的多播会话消息后,对该任务的多播会话消息进行解析,得到该任务需要进行MBSFN传输会话的小区,并封装成符合传输协议的多播会话消息后,发送至多播协调实体(英文:Multi-cell/multicast Coordination Entity;缩写:MCE)。
其中,MCE接收的来自MME的多播会话消息中携带第一标识,利用该第一标识能够确定本次多播会话的目标小区,即进行MBSFN传输会话的小 区。
一种实现方式中,该第一标识可以为服务区域标识(英文:Service Area ID;缩写:SAI)。由于MCE中预先存储有SAI与小区的映射关系,所以,MCE通过解析多播会话消息得到SAI后,通过查询预先存储的SAI与小区的映射关系,得到与该SAI具有映射关系的小区,并将该小区确定为多播会话的目标小区。值得注意的是,目标小区可以是一个小区,也可以是多个小区。
S102:MCE根据所述第一标识确定多播会话的目标小区后,判断所述目标小区是否配置有多媒体广播多播业务单频网络区域MA。
本发明实施例中,MCE在根据第一标识确定多播会话的目标小区后,判断目标小区是否配置有MA。
实际应用中,在M2连接建立过程中,MCE接收来自基站的M2连接建立请求(英文:M2 Setup Request),其中,M2连接建立请求中携带有SAI与小区的映射关系。然后,MCE向基站返回M2连接建立响应(英文:M2 Setup Response)完成M2连接的建立,其中,M2连接建立响应中携带有小区与MA的映射关系,完成MA的静态配置。
一种判断目标小区是否配置有MA的方式为,查询利用上述静态配置方式配置的小区与MA的映射关系中是否存在为目标小区配置的MA。如果存在,则认为该目标小区配置有MA;否则,认为该目标小区未配置MA,无法进行MBSFN传输会话。
S103:MCE为未配置MA的目标小区配置MA,得到所述目标小区与所述MA的映射关系。
本发明实施例中,MCE在确定未配置MA的目标小区后,为未配置MA的目标小区配置MA,并得到该目标小区与该MA的映射关系。
一种实施方式中,可以为该未配置MA的目标小区新建一个MA,并建立该目标小区与该MA的映射关系。
另一种实施方式中,可以为该未配置MA的目标小区配置一个已存在的且尚有剩余时频资源的MA,并建立该目标小区与该MA的映射关系。
S104:MCE将所述目标小区与所述MA的映射关系发送至所述目标小区所属的基站。
本发明实施例中,MCE在得到各个目标小区与MA的映射关系后,分别将各个映射关系发送至各个目标小区所属的基站,以便基站后续利用动态配置的目标小区与MA的映射关系进行MBSFN传输会话。
实际应用中,各个基站在接收到目标小区与MA的映射关系后,向MCE返回MCE Configuration Update Acknowledge,以通知MCE映射关系发送成功。另外,MCE在收到来自基站的MCE Configuration Update Acknowledge后,向MME发送MBMS Session Start Response,以通知MME动态配置MA成功。
本发明实施例提供的多媒体广播多播业务单频网络区域配置方法中,MCE接收来自MME的多播会话消息后,根据多播会话消息携带的第一标识确定多播会话的目标小区。MCE判断目标小区是否配置有MA,并为未配置MA的目标小区配置MA,将目标小区与MA的映射关系发送至该目标小区所属的基站。本发明实施例中MCE在接收到多播会话消息后,动态的配置MA,实时满足多播会话的需求。
以上针对未配置MA的小区,本发明实施例能够实现动态配置MA,满足业务的实时性要求。
事实上,即使是配置有MA的小区,也存在无法进行MBSFN传输会话的情况。本发明实施例提供了一种多媒体广播多播业务单频网络区域配置方法,既能够为未配置MA的小区动态配置MA,也能够为配置有MA但是无法进行MBSFN传输会话的小区动态配置MA。
参考图2,为本发明实施例提供的另一种多媒体广播多播业务单频网络区域配置方法的流程图,所述方法具体包括:
S201:MCE接收来自MME的多播会话消息,其中,所述多播会话消息携带第一标识,所述第一标识用于确定多播会话的目标小区。
S202:MCE根据所述第一标识确定多播会话的目标小区后,判断所述目标小区是否配置有多媒体广播多播业务单频网络区域MA。
S203:MCE为未配置MA的目标小区配置MA,得到所述目标小区与所述MA的映射关系。
上述S201-S203的实现过程与S101-S103相同,在此不再赘述,请参照理解。
S204:判断已配置MA的目标小区的MA会话数量是否已达预设上限。
由于已配置MA的目标小区的MA会话数量是有上限的,如果当前的MA会话数量已经达到预设上限,则该目标小区不能进行MBSFN传输会话。
所以,本发明实施例中,对于已配置MA的目标小区,MCE还需要判断该目标小区的MA会话数量是否已达预设上限。如果未达到上限,则确定该目标小区可以进行MBSFN传输会话。
S205:判断MA会话数量已达预设上限的目标小区的剩余时频资源是否足够配置MA。
由于配置MA需要足够的时频资源,所以,对于MA会话数量已达到预设上限的目标小区,本发明实施例还需要判断该目标小区的剩余时频资源是否足够配置MA。
S206:如果所述目标小区的剩余时频资源足够配置MA,则为所述目标小区配置MA,得到所述目标小区与所述MA的映射关系。
如果目标小区剩余时频资源足够配置MA,则为该目标小区配置MA,得到该目标小区与该MA的映射关系。
一种实现方式中,可以为该目标小区新建一个MA,并建立该目标小区与该MA的映射关系。
另一种实现方式中,可以为该目标小区配置一个已存在的且尚有剩余时频资源的MA,并建该目标小区与该MA的映射关系。
S207:MCE将所述目标小区与所述MA的映射关系发送至所述目标小区所属的基站。
本发明实施例中,MCE分别将各个目标小区与MA的映射关系发送至各个目标小区所属的基站,以便基站能够利用动态配置的目标小区与MA的映射关系,进行MBSFN传输会话。
本发明实施例提供的多媒体广播多播业务单频网络区域配置方法,不仅能够为未配置MA的小区动态配置MA,还能够为配置有MA但无法进行MBSFN传输会话的小区动态配置MA,可见,本发明实施例提供的动态配置MA的方法能够满足多播会话的实时性要求。
另外,对于已完成MA配置的小区cell(例如MA包括cell1、cell2、cell3 和cell4),如果多播会话消息仅需要在cell1和cell2内广播传输,而由于cell3和cell4同属于一个MA,这导致该多播会话消息也会在cell3和cell4内广播,造成无线资源的浪费。
为此,本发明实施例还提供了一种已配置MA的删除方法,具体的,在MCE接收来自MME的多播会话消息,根据该多播会话消息携带的第一标识确定多播会话的目标小区,并判断各个基站中已配置MA的小区是否属于目标小区;向不属于目标小区的已配置MA的小区对应的基站发送删除请求,以删除该小区与MA的对应关系。
实际应用中,MCE中存储有与其通信的基站中已配置MA的小区列表,将各个基站的小区列表分别与目标小区进行比较,以判断是否存在不属于目标小区的小区。MCE将本地存储的该小区已配置的MA删除,即删除该小区与MA的映射关系,另外,MCE还向该小区对应的基站发送删除请求,以指示该基站删除其存储的该小区与MA的映射关系,以保证来自MME的该多播会话消息不会在该小区广播,避免了无线资源的浪费。
关键任务(英文:mission critical;缩写:MC)业务,主要应用于公共安全、抢险救灾、轨交等场景,包括:关键任务按键通话(英文:mission critical push to talk;缩写:MCPTT)、关键任务视频(英文:mission critical video;缩写:MCVideo)、关键任务数据(英文:mission critical data;缩写:MCData)。
以下,本发明实施例还提供了一种基于MC业务的MA配置方法,参考图3,为本发明实施例提供的一种基于MC业务的MA配置方法的信令交互图。所述方法具体包括:
S301:MME接收到来自MC业务服务器的MC业务多播会话消息。
当MC业务存在采用MBSFN传输会话的需求时,MC业务服务器发出MC业务多播会话消息,MME接收到该MC业务多播会话消息后,对该MC业务多播会话消息进行解析后,获取该MC业务需要进行MBSFN传输会话的小区。
一种应用场景中,当某个小区内接收到同一会话的UE数量突然增多时,MC业务服务器决定采用MBSFN传输会话,此时MC业务服务器发出MC业 务多播会话消息,MME接收到该MC业务多播会话消息。这种情况下,为了满足MC业务的实时性需求,本发明实施例能够为未配置MA的小区动态配置MA,使得MBSFN传输会话能够顺利进行。
S302:MME根据MC业务多播会话消息,向所述MCE发送多播会话消息,其中,所述多播会话消息携带第一标识,所述第一标识用于确定多播会话的目标小区。
实际应用中,MME根据MC业务多播会话消息获取到MC业务需要进行MBSFN传输会话的小区后,生成携带第一标识的多播会话消息,并将该多播会话消息发送至MCE,以通知MCE当前存在采用MBSFN传输会话的MC业务。
S303:MCE根据所述第一标识确定多播会话的目标小区后,判断所述目标小区是否配置有多媒体广播多播业务单频网络区域MA。
S304:MCE为未配置MA的目标小区配置MA,得到所述目标小区与所述MA的映射关系。
S305:MCE判断已配置MA的目标小区的MA会话数量是否已达预设上限。
S306:MCE判断MA会话数量已达预设上限的目标小区的剩余时频资源是否足够配置MA。
S307:如果所述目标小区的剩余时频资源足够配置MA,则为所述目标小区配置MA,得到所述目标小区与所述MA的映射关系。
S308:MCE将所述目标小区与所述MA的映射关系发送至所述目标小区所属的基站。
上述S303-S308的实现过程与S202-S207相同,在此不再赘述,请参照理解。
综上,本发明实施例提供的基于MC业务的MA配置方法,能够满足MC业务的实时性要求,为未配置MA的小区动态配置MA,使得MC业务顺利进行MBSFN传输会话。
