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。
应理解,本发明实施例的技术方案可以应用于各种通信系统,例如:全球移动通讯(Global System of Mobile communication,GSM)系统、码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access,CDMA)系统、宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access,WCDMA)系统、通用分组无线业务(General Packet Radio Service,GPRS)、长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统、LTE频分双工(Frequency Division Duplex,FDD)系统、LTE时分双工(Time Division Duplex,TDD)、通用移动通信系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunication System,UMTS)、全球互联微波接入(Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access,WiMAX)通信系统或未来的新无限(New Radio,NR)系统等。
特别地,本发明实施例的技术方案可以应用于各种基于非正交多址接入 技术的通信系统,例如稀疏码多址接入(Sparse Code Multiple Access,SCMA)系统、低密度签名(Low Density Signature,LDS)系统等,当然SCMA系统和LDS系统在通信领域也可以被称为其他名称;进一步地,本发明实施例的技术方案可以应用于采用非正交多址接入技术的多载波传输系统,例如采用非正交多址接入技术正交频分复用(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing,OFDM)、滤波器组多载波(Filter Bank Multi-Carrier,FBMC)、通用频分复用(Generalized Frequency Division Multiplexing,GFDM)、滤波正交频分复用(Filtered-OFDM,F-OFDM)系统等。
图1示出了本申请实施例所涉及的一种实施环境的示意图。该实施环境包括:终端设备110、接入网设备120和核心网设备130。其中,S1接口用于接入网设备与核心网设备之间的通信,X2接口用于接入网设备之间的通信,Uu接口用于终端设备与接入网设备之间的通信。
在本申请实施例中,终端设备110可以经无线接入网(Radio Access Network,RAN)与一个或多个核心网进行通信,该终端设备可称为接入终端、用户设备(User Equipment,UE)、用户单元、用户站、移动站、移动台、远方站、远程终端、移动设备、用户终端、终端、无线通信设备、用户代理或用户装置。接入终端可以是蜂窝电话、无绳电话、会话启动协议(Session Initiation Protocol,SIP)电话、无线本地环路(Wireless Local Loop,WLL)站、个人数字处理(Personal Digital Assistant,PDA)、具有无线通信功能的手持设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备以及未来5G(5th Generation)网络中的终端设备。
接入网设备120为接入网中的网元。如图1所示,以通用移动通信系统(Universal Mobile Telecommunications System,UMTS)为例,接入网设备120可以是基站(Node Base,NB),也可以是无线网络控制器(Radio Network Controller,RNC)。在LTE无线网络架构中,基站可以为演进型基站(Evolved Node Base station,eNB)。
核心网设备130为核心网(Core Network,CN)中的网元。以LTE无线网络架构为例,核心网设备130包括移动性管理实体(Mobility Management Entity,MME),服务网关(Serving Gateway,S-GW)和分组数据网关(PDN Gateway,P-GW)。MME主要用于完成终端设备110的移动性管理和会话管理。S-GW主要用于负责转发eNB与P-GW间的数据。P-GW主要用于负责 处理网间协议(Internet Protocol,IP)数据业务。
现有长期演进LTE系统中,终端设备在与网络建立连接后,为终端设备服务的网络设备会为该终端设备建立相应业务信息。当正在使用网络服务的终端设备从一个陆地移动网络(Public Land Mobile Network,PLMN)移动到另一个PLMN或者从一个核心网移动到另一个核心网时,为了保证通信的连续性和服务质量,终端设备需要通过切换来恢复终端设备与网络设备之间的连接。
为了便于理解,先结合图2简单介绍小区切换的方法。图2示出了小区切换的方法的示意性流程图。图2所示的方法包括:
201、终端完成与源接入网设备(源小区所属接入网设备)间的初始接入过程。此时,该终端从空闲态进入连接态。
202、源接入网设备通过与该终端所属的MME建立上下文会话,获取该终端的上下文信息。
203、源接入网设备存储该终端的上下文信息。
204、终端完成邻小区的测量过程。该终端根据源接入网设备发送的配置信息,对测量对象进行测量,并向源接入网设备发送测量报告,以使接入网设备可以根据测量报告确定该终端是否进行小区切换。
205、当源接入网设备确定该终端需要切换时,该源接入网设备向目标接入网设备发送切换请求,该切换请求携带该终端的上下文信息。
206、目标接入网设备存储该终端的上下文信息。
207、目标接入网设备向源接入网设备发送确认切换请求。
208、源接入网设备将终端切换到目标接入网设备。
209、将S1路径从源接入网设备转移到目标接入网设备。当终端接入目标接入网设备后,目标接入网设备会向核心网网元发送路径更换请求,目的是通知核心网网元将终端的业务转移到目标接入网设备,更新用户面和控制面的节点关系。
由上述方案中可知,终端设备从源接入网设备覆盖的小区移动到目标接入网设备覆盖的小区内,终端设备是通过切换的方式恢复终端设备与接入网实体之间的连接,换句话说,终端设备需要先通知源接入网设备,由源接入网设备再向目标接入网设备请求切换,并携带终端设备的上下文信息,终端设备需要与源接入网设备进行多次交互才能恢复连接,消耗了较多的能量。
在LTE演进及未来无线系统研究中,终端在连接态时可以不通过切换进行自主移动,使用的移动方法类似于LTE网络中的小区选择或小区重选。即终端根据网络设置的参数,自主进行移动且并不告知网络(与切换的区别)。在终端移动到不同的核心网或不同的PLMN下,终端设备的上下文信息可能存储在终端设备本身或者之前为终端设备服务的接入网设备或核心网设备或PLMN设备设备,在终端设备需要在当前核心网或PLMN下进行数据传输时,当前的网络设备可以从终端设备处或者之前的网络设备处获取终端设备的上下文信息,以便恢复传输。
应理解,本文中术语“系统”和“网络”在本文中常被可互换使用。本文中术语“和/或”,仅仅是一种描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。另外,本文中字符“/”,一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
图3示出了本申请实施例的通信方法300的示意性框图。如图3所示,该通信方法300包括以下部分或全部内容:
S310,在终端设备从第一共陆地移动网络PLMN移动到第二PLMN或从第一核心网移动到第二核心网的情况下,目标网络设备获取该终端设备的上下文信息;
S320,该目标网络设备根据该上下文信息,与该终端设备进行通信。
本申请实施例可以适用于终端设备与目标网络设备连接,但该终端设备的上下文信息存储在源网络设备中,换句话说,只要存储有该终端设备的上下文信息的网络设备都可以作为本申请实施例中的源网络设备。
应理解,本申请实施例中的网络设备既可以是接入网设备,又可以核心网设备,或者还可以是PLMN网络设备。也就是说,源网络设备与目标网络设备可以是不同的接入网设备,或者源网络设备与目标网络设备可以是不同的核心网设备,或者源网络设备与目标网络设备可以是不同的PLMN网络设备,其所属的核心网可以相同也可以不同。还应理解,在本申请实施例中,PLMN网络设备实现的功能与核心网设备实现的功能类似,下面主要以核心网设备为例进行描述,而PLMN网络设备可以参考核心网设备的具体实现。
具体地,终端设备若确定自己当前移动的核心网或者PLMN与之前的不同,终端设备可以不通过与网络设备的信令交互来建立终端设备的上下文信 息,目标网络设备可以从终端设备处或者源网络设备处来获取终端设备的上下文信息,例如,若终端设备有上行数据需要发送时,并且终端设备的上下文信息存储在终端设备设备处,终端设备就可以直接向目标接入网设备发送其上下文信息,这样的话,网络设备就可以很快地与终端设备恢复传输,那么终端设备就可以直接向网络设备发送上行数据了。
因此,本申请实施例的通信方法,在终端设备移动到不同的PLMN或者不同的核心网下,目标网络设备可以与终端设备不进行切换直接获取终端设备的上下文信息,从而能够恢复与终端设备之间的连接,以节省终端电量与网络开销,从而提高终端移动性能。
可选地,在本申请实施例中,终端设备的上下文信息可以存储在终端设备处、源接入网设备处以及源核心网设备处。也就是说,目标网络设备可以从终端设备处、源接入网设备处以及源核心网设备处中的任何一处来获取终端设备的上下文信息。
下面将结合图4至图6分别描述目标网络设备从终端设备处、从源接入网设备处以及从源核心网处获取终端设备的上下文信息的具体流程。
图4示出了本申请实施例的通信方法10的示意性流程图。该方法10适用于终端设备的上下文信息存储在终端设备处的场景。如图4所示,该方法10包括以下部分或全部内容:
S11,终端设备在可以确定自身移动到不同的核心网的情况下,可以直接向目标接入网设备发送该终端设备的上下文信息。
S12,目标接入网设备可以在接收到终端设备发送的终端设备的上下文信息之后,将该终端设备的上下文信息转发给目标核心网设备。
S13,终端设备也可以在确定自身移动到不同地核心网的情况下,也可以直接向目标核心网设备发送该终端设备的上下文信息。

S15,目标核心网设备在接收到终端设备或目标接入网设备转发的上下文信息之后,也可以向终端设备发送指示信息,指示该终端设备释放上下文信息。
应理解,在本申请的各种实施例中,上述各过程的序号的大小并不意味着执行顺序的先后,各过程的执行顺序应以其功能和内在逻辑确定,而不应 对本申请实施例的实施过程构成任何限定。
图5示出了本申请实施例的通信方法20的示意性流程图。该方法20适用于终端设备的上下文信息存储在源接入网设备处的场景。如图5所示,该方法20包括以下部分或全部内容:
S21,终端设备在可以确定自身移动到不同的核心网的情况下,可以向目标接入网设备发送源接入网设备的一些信息,该信息能够由目标接入网设备找到源接入网设备。例如,该信息可以是核心网设备为源接入网设备分配的标识,也可以是终端设备与源接入网设备的路径标识或核心网设备与源接入网设备的路径标识,任何标识源接入网设备的都可以作为本申请实施例中的标识信息,本发明对此不够成限定。
S22,目标接入网设备在接收到该源接入网设备的信息之后,就可以向源接入网设备发送上下文获取请求消息,可选地,在该上下文获取请求消息中可以携带终端设备的标识信息,例如该终端设备的标识信息可以是源接入网设备为终端设备分配的标识,也可以是全球唯一临时UE标识(Globally Unique Temporary UE Identity,GUTI),也可以是国际移动用户识别码(International Mobile Subscriber Identification Number,IMSI)等其他终端标识,任何能够标识终端设备的都可以作为本申请实施例的标识信息。
S23,源接入网设备在接收到目标接入网设备发送的上下文获取请求消息之后,可以根据携带的终端设备的标识信息首先查找该终端设备的上下文信息,进而将查找到的上下文信息发送给目标接入网设备。

S29,目标核心网设备在接收到目标接入网设备转发的终端设备的上下文信息之后,也可以向终端设备发送指示信息,可以通知终端设备目标核心网设备已经获取到该终端设备的上下文信息,也就是通知终端设备目标核心网设备已经做好了与终端设备进行通信的准备。
可选地,终端设备也可以直接向目标核心网设备上报源核心网设备的信息,那么目标核心网设备就可以根据上报的源核心网设备的信息向源核心网设备发送上下文获取请求消息,源核心网设备可以直接向源接入网设备转发该上下文获取请求消息,也可以重新向源接入网发送另外一个上下文获取请求消息,而源核心网设备向源接入网设备发送的该上下文获取请求消息中可以终端设备的标识,该标识可以与目标核心网设备向源核心网设备发送的上下文获取请求消息中携带的终端设备的标识不同,也可以相同,也可以不携带终端设备的标识,本申请实施例不作任何限定。源接入网设备在接收到源核心网设备发送的上下文获取请求消息之后,可以将终端设备的上下文信息发送给源核心网设备,源核心网设备进而可以将该上下文信息转发给目标核心网设备,进一步的,目标核心网设备就可以向目标接入网设备转发该上下文信息。
应理解,在本申请的各种实施例中,上述各过程的序号的大小并不意味着执行顺序的先后,各过程的执行顺序应以其功能和内在逻辑确定,而不应对本申请实施例的实施过程构成任何限定。
图6示出了本申请实施例的通信方法30的示意性流程图。该方法30适用于终端设备的上下文信息存储在源核心网设备处的场景。如图6所示,该方法30包括以下部分或全部内容:

应理解,上述方法10、方法20以及方法30是以上下文信息存储在一个设备的角度描述的,本申请实施例应不限于此。例如,终端设备的上下文信 息可以存储终端设备和源接入网设备处,那么终端设备可以向目标核心网设备处直接发送该终端设备的上下文信息,终端设备也可以向目标接入网设备发送源接入网设备的一些信息,以便于目标接入网设备从源接入网设备处获取该终端设备的上下文信息。
还应理解,上述是以核心网设备为例进行描述的,由于PLMN网络设备与核心网设备的功能类似,这里不再赘述。
还应理解,终端设备向目标网络设备发送的终端设备的上下文信息或者源网络设备的信息可以承载于随机接入请求消息,即向目标接入网设备发出上行发送的资源请求。此时终端设备可以是处于空闲态,但该终端设备或源接入网设备或源核心网设备(PLMN网络设备)中保存有该终端设备的上下文信息,该终端设备也可以是处于无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC)非激活态下,但该终端设备或源接入网设备或源核心网设备(PLMN网络设备)中保存有该终端设备的上下文信息,本申请对该终端设备的状态不作限定。

S420,该源网络设备向该目标网络设备发送该上下文信息。
