步骤S105:LMF 101获取UE 105的定位配置信息;
步骤S106:LMF 101根据UE 105的定位配置信息判断是否允许对UE 105进行第一定位操作;
步骤S107:LMF 101根据判断的结果向NEF 102发送第三消息;可选的,若LMF 101判断允许对UE 105进行第一定位操作,则在步骤S106之后,LMF 101还可以向UDM发送UE 105的标识、第一定位操作信息、以及第三方设备104的信息,用于UDM存储有关于UE 105的定位操作的相关信息;可选的,UDM在存储UE 105的标识、第一定位操作信息、以及第三方设备104的信息后,可以向LMF 101发送响应消息;
步骤S108:NEF 102接收LMF 101发送的第三消息;
步骤S109:NEF 102向第三方设备104发送第二消息。
采用以上方法,能够由NEF 102根据第三方设备104的请求实现UE 105的定位服务,实现LMF 101的定位服务能力的对外开放。
在一种可行的实施方式中,步骤S101中第三方设备104向NEF 102发送的UE 105的标识可以是UE 105的公共UE标识(public UE identity),用于标识UE 105的身份,应注意,本申请实施例中,并未对核心网内部节点之间传递的UE 105的标识的具体形式予以明确限定,在各步骤所涉及的UE 105的标识的形式也可以进行转换,只要能够对UE 105进行唯一标示即可,例如,在步骤S102中,NEF 102可以将收到的UE 105的标识转换为签约永久标识(subscription permanent identifier,SUPI),并在后续核心网内部使用SUPI对UE 105进行标示。
第三方设备104发送的第一定位操作信息,可以包括或仅包括需执行的定位操作的类型标识和/或参数,用于请求LMF 101根据定位操作的类型标识和/或参数执行定位操作;第一定位操作信息也可以包括或仅包括需停止执行的定位操作的类型标识和/或参数,用于请求;LMF 101根据定位操作的类型标识和/或参数停止执行定位操作;第一定位操作信息还可以包括或仅包括需进行修改的定位操作的类型标识和/或参数,用于请求LMF 101根据定位操作的类型标识和/或参数,对已执行或尚未执行定位操作的类型标识和/或参数进行修改。
具体的,定位操作的类型可以是LMF按照设定时间间隔确定UE 105的位置信息并向第三方设备报告UE 105的位置信息,此时,定位操作的参数可以是设定时间间隔;定位操作的类型还可以是在UE 105进入或离开设定区域时向第三方设备进行报告,此时,定位操作的参数可以是设定区域的标识和/或设定区域的坐标信息等。
另外在实施中,第一定位操作信息还可以包括或仅包括第三方设备的信息,如第三方设备的标识、第三方设备的IP地址或第三方设备中发起定位操作的应用程序(如App等)的标识,由于UE 105可以被设置为仅允许对具有预设的一种或多种信息的第三方设备开放定位服务,因此第三方设备104可以将自身的标识、IP地址以及发起定位操作的应用程序的标识等信息中的部分或全部,携带在向NEF 102发送的第一定位操作信息中。
本申请实施例中,第三方设备还可以在发送UE的标识和第一定位操作信息时携带第三方设备的信息,用于表示发送UE的标识和第一定位操作信息的第三方设备。另外,若第三方设备向NEF发送的UE的标识和第一定位操作信息,根据的是第三方设备的应用程序的请求,如APP等,第三方设备还可以在发送UE的标识和第一定位操作信息时携带应用程序的标识,以便第三方设备将收到的第二消息或第二消息对应的信息通知该应用程序。
在一种可行的实施方式中,步骤S102中,NEF 102可以向UDM 103发送UE 105的标识,以及接收UDM 103返回的为UE 105提供定位服务的LMF 101的信息,其中,LMF 101的信息可以是LMF 101的标识,或者LMF 101的IP地址。通过该步骤可以使UDM 103保存服务于UE 105的LMF 101信息,在第三方设备104向NEF 102请求指定用户的位置时,NEF 102可以从UDM 103获取服务于UE 105的LMF 101。
在实施中,UDM 103可以根据此前存储的UE的标识与LMF的信息之间的对应关系,在收到NEF 102发送的UE 105的标识后,确定为UE 105提供定位服务的LMF 101的信息,其中,UDM 103存储的UE的标识与LMF的信息之间的对应关系,可以是LMF在确定为UE提供定位服务之后,向UDM发送的。举例来说,LMF 101可以在确定为UE 105提供定位服务后,将UE 105的标识以及LMF 101的信息发送至UDM 103,用于指示LMF 101为UE 105提供定位服务,则UDM 103能够在收到NEF 102发送的UE 105的标识后,确定LMF 101是为UE 105提供定位服务的LMF。
在另一种实施方式中,步骤S102中,NEF 102在收到第三方设备104发送的UE 105的标识后,可以根据自身存储的第一对应关系,确定为UE 105提供定位服务的LMF 101,其中,第一对应关系为UE的标识与为UE提供定位服务的LMF的信息的对应关系。具体的,第一对应关系,可以是NEF 102从UDM 103获取的,如,NEF 102按照预设时间间隔从UDM 103获取更新的第一对应关系,或者UDM 103在存储的UE的标识与为UE提供定位服务的LMF的信息的对应关系发生变更后,将该对应关系中的变更内容,或者变更后的该对应关系发送至NEF 102,从而NEF 102能够确定第一对应关系;第一对应关系也可以是NEF 102此前根据第三方设备104发送的UE 105的标识,确定的UE 105的标识与为UE 105提供服务的LMF 101之间的对应关系。
在实施中,LMF 101可以在UE 105向AMF 107请求注册的过程中确定为UE 105提供定位服务,一种可行的方案为:AMF107在收到UE 105发送的注册请求后,AMF 107可以根据LMF的服务区域(serving area)信息等确定LMF 101作为可以向UE105提供服务的LMF,AMF 107向LMF 101发送第四消息,第四消息可以是位置服务激活请求(Location Service Activate request),第四消息可以携带表示UE 105开启定位服务的信息,用于请求LMF 101为UE 105提供定位服务,LMF 101在收到第四消息后,确定为UE 105提供定位服务。在另外的一种可行的方案中,UE 105在向AMF 107请求注册的过程中发送携带定位配置信息的注册请求,AMF 107在确定注册请求包括UE 105的定位配置信息后,再确定将LMF 101作为可以向UE105提供服务的LMF,其中,UE 105的定位配置信息可以包括表示UE 105开启定位服务的信息,该表示UE 105启用定位服务的信息可以是UE 105启用位置服务指示信息(LCS enabled indication),也可以是其他表示UE 105启用定位服务的信息。
另外在实施中,LMF 101还可以在确定为UE 105提供服务以后,在向AMF 107发送的反馈消息中携带标识接收AMF 107发送的第四消息的信息,同时,LMF 101还可以向AMF 107发送自身的服务区域的标识和/或坐标信息,例如,LMF的服务区域可以是整个公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN),则LMF的服务区域的标识可以是该PLMN的标识。
具体的,LMF 101可以根据UE 105的定位配置信息判断是否为UE105提供定位服务,例如,UE 105的定位配置信息可以包括或仅包括UE 105的定位业务签约数据,定位业务 签约数据可以用于表示UE 105允许进行的定位操作,例如,定位业务签约数据可包括表示允许UE向网络发起UE的定位操作,使UE得到自己的位置的信息及相关定位操作的参数,或者可以包括表示允许网络侧设备发起对UE的定位操作,从而使网络侧设备可以获得UE的位置信息的信息及相关定位操作的参数;UE 105的定位配置信息还可以包括或仅包括UE 105的定位隐私设置信息(privacy profile),定位隐私设置信息可用于表示UE 105不允许进行的定位操作,例如,定位隐私设置信息可以包括表示拒绝UE以外设备发起UE的定位操作的信息;UE 105的定位配置信息还可以包括或仅包括UE 105的定位业务开放的设置信息,例如定位业务开放的设置信息可以包括表示UE 105是否开启定位服务的信息,和/或,允许或不允许第三方设备请求LMF对UE 105进行定位操作的类型和/或定位操作的参数的信息,和/或,允许和/或不允许对UE105进行定位操作的第三方设备的信息,具体的,第三方设备信息可以包括Application ID。在实施中,UE 105的定位配置信息可以存储于UDM 103中,LMF 101可以在进行判断之前,根据UE 105的标识从UDM 103获取UE 105的标识所对应的定位配置信息。
在一种可行的实施方式中,UE 105的定位配置信息可以是UE 105通过核心网实体AMF发送至UDM 103的,例如,UE 105可以在定位配置信息发生变化后,通过AMF将发生变化的或变化后的定位配置信息发送至LMF 101,并由LMF 101发送至UDM 103;另外,UE 105的定位配置信息也可以是预先配置于UDM 103的默认内容,如,UDM 103默认存储UE 105的表示允许进行全部定位服务的定位配置信息。
在一种可行的实施方式中,步骤S103中NEF 102发送的第一消息还包括UE 105的标识,则在步骤105中,LMF 101可以根据UE 105的标识获取UE 105的定位配置信息。其中,本步骤中的UE标识可以是SUPI。
在实施中,LMF 101可以将UE 105的标识发送至UDM 103,并接收UDM 103发送的UE 105的定位配置信息。具体来说,UDM 103可以根据存储的UE的标识与定位配置信息的对应关系,在收到LMF 101发送的UE 105的标识后,根据该对应关系确定UE 105对应的定位配置信息,之后将确定的定位配置信息发送至LMF 101;另外,若LMF 101自身存储有UE 105的定位配置信息,LMF 101也可以根据105的标识从本地存储的定位配置信息中确定UE 105的定位配置信息,例如,LMF 101在确定是否为UE105提供定位服务的过程中,从UDM 103获取了UE 105的定位配置信息,则LMF 101可以根据NEF 102发送的第一消息中的UE 105的标识,确定UE 105的定位配置信息。
具体来说,在步骤S105之前,LMF 101可以接收UE 105发送的定位配置信息,之后,LMF 101可以将UE 105发送的定位配置信息以及UE 105的标识发送至UDM 103,则LMF 101可以在步骤S105中将UE 105的标识发送至UDM 103以获取UE 105的定位配置信息;或者,LMF 101可以将UE 105发送的定位配置信息保存在本地并建立UE 105的标识与UE 105的定位配置信息的对应关系,则LMF 101可以在步骤S105中,根据UE 105的标识确定UE 105的定位配置信息。
具体的,UE 105的定位配置信息可以是UE 105的定位状态或者相关设置发生变化后,UE 105确定并通过AMF 105发送至LMF 101的信息,例如,UE 105在表示开启或关闭定位操作的信息发生变化后,UE 105可以向AMF 105发送定位配置信息,其中携带表示开启或关闭定位操作的信息发生变化的信息,如,携带变化后的标识开启或关闭定位操作的信息;另外,UE 105可以在首次接入AMF 105时,在向AMF 105发送的注册请求中携带 UE 105确定的定位配置信息,AMF105可以将定位配置信息发送至LMF 101,以方便LMF 101对UE 105进行定位。
其中,UE 105的定位配置信息可以包括UE 105的定位状态信息,定位状态信息用于表示UE 105允许的定位操作和/或UE 105拒绝的定位操作,从而,LMF 101可以将UE 105的标识以及UE 105的定位状态信息,发送至UDM 103或进行保存,或者在本地进行存储,定位状态信息可以是UE 105允许执行的定位操作的类型标识和/或参数。
在步骤S106中,LMF 101可以根据UE 105的定位配置信息中的定位状态信息判断是否允许对UE 105进行第一定位操作,其中,定位状态信息可以是用于表示UE 105允许的定位操作和/或UE 105拒绝的定位操作。具体来说,UE 105的定位状态信息可以包括UE 105允许执行的定位操作的类型标识和/或参数,LMF 101可以在确定UE 105的定位状态信息后,判断UE 105允许执行的定位操作的类型标识和/或参数是否包括第一定位操作信息所指示的LMF 101需执行的定位操作的类型标识和/或参数,若是,则LMF 101判断允许进行第一定位操作,否则,LMF 101判断不允许进行第一定位操作;另外,UE 105的定位状态信息也可以包括UE 105允许停止执行的定位操作的类型标识和/或参数,用于LMF 101判断是否允许停止执行第一定位操作信息所指示的第一定位操作;UE 105的定位状态信息也可以包括UE 105允许修改的定位操作的类型标识和/或参数,用于LMF 101判断是否允许对第一定位信息所指示的定位操作的类型标识和/或参数进行修改。
另外,在步骤S106中,在LMF 101确定允许对UE 105进行第一定位操作后,LMF 101还可以确定第二定位操作信息,用于指示允许对以UE 105进行的定位操作,该第二定位操作信息可以与第一定位操作信息相同或不同,LMF 101可以将UE 105的标识和第二定位操作信息发送至NEF 102,从而NEF 102可以保存UE 105的标识和第二定位操作信息的对应关系,或者将第二定位操作信息发送至第三方设备104使第三方设备104能够确定LMF 101执行的定位操作的内容,或者,NEF 102也可以将UE 105的标识和第二定位操作信息发送至UDM 103,用于UDM 103存储UE 105的标识和第二定位操作信息的对应关系;和/或,LMF 101可以向UDM 103发送UE 105的标识和第二定位操作信息,用于UDM 103存储UE 105的标识和第二定位操作信息的对应关系。
以定位操作是LMF 101需要执行的定位操作为例,若LMF 101判断第一定位操作信息所指示的需要执行的第一定位操作包括在UE 105允许执行的操作,则LMF 101可以将第一定位操作信息作为第二定位操作信息,向NEF 102或UDM103发送;在另一种实施方式中,若LMF 101判断第一定位操作信息所指示的需要执行的定位操作的类型,为UE 105允许的定位操作的类型,LMF 101可以判断接受第一定位操作信息表示的定位操作请求并根据UE 105允许执行的定位操作的类型标识和/或参数,确定第二定位操作(此时第二定位操作的参数可以与第一定位操作的参数不同),并执行第二定位操作,其中,LMF 101可以根据执行第一定位操作造成的网络负荷、网络的定位能力是否允许进行第一定位操作以及第一定位操作的参数是否是UE 105允许的定位操作的参数等多个因素中的至少一个,确定是否根据UE 105允许执行的定位操作的类型标识和/或参数确定第二定位操作。
举例来说,若第一定位操作中指示LMF 101需要每隔3分钟定期上报UE 105的位置,但LMF 101可以避免频繁对终端定位对网络负荷造成过载,LMF从而根据网络负荷管理的策略将“UE定期上报的时间间隔”这一参数信息修改为5分钟,即第二定位操作需要LMF 101每隔5分钟确定并报告UE位置;另外一种情况是第一定位操作的参数信息中描 述“定位精度”的参数是20米,但LMF根据当前网络的定位能力或者允许对外提供的UE位置精度将定位精度参数改为30米。具体的,LMF 101可以将UE 105允许执行的定位操作中,定位操作的类型与第一定位操作信息所指示的第一定位操作的类型相同,且定位操作的参数与第一定位操作信息所指示的第一定位操作的参数最为接近的定位操作,作为第二定位操作。此时LMF 101可以向NEF 102发送携带接受信息的第三消息,LMF 101还可以在第三消息中携带第二定位操作信息,第二定位操作信息包括第二定位操作的类型标识和/或参数,以表示LMF 101接受定位操作请求,且该定位操作是根据第二定位操作信息执行的第二定位操作。
采用以上方法,UDM 103能够从NEF 102或者LMF 101获取UE 105的标识和第二定位操作信息,从而UDM 103可以将UE 105的标识和第二定位操作信息的对应关系存储到UE 105所对应的定位配置信息中,该对应关系用于UDM 103收到LMF发送的UE 105的标识后,根据该对应关系确定UE 105的标识对应的第二定位操作信息,使得该LMF能够根据第二定位操作信息对UE 105进行定位操作,其中,该LMF可以是LMF 101,也可以是其他LMF,从而即便由于LMF 101存储的UE 105的标识与第二定位操作信息的对应关系丢失或被丢弃,或者由于UE 105的位置发生变更等原因导致为UE 105提供定位服务的LMF变更为LMF 101以外的LMF,为UE 105提供定位服务的LMF仍然能够从UDM 103获取UE 105对应的第二定位操作信息,从而实现针对UE 105的定位服务的延续。
具体的,第二定位操作信息可以包括允许对UE 105进行的定位操作,如用于表示请求LMF 101根据定位操作的类型标识和/或参数,对UE 105进行定位的信息;也可以包括是UE 105用于表示请求LMF 101停止根据定位操作的类型标识和/或参数,对UE 105进行定位的信息;也可以包括用于表示请求LMF 101根据定位操作的类型标识和/或参数,修改对UE 105进行定位所依据的定位操作的类型标识和/或参数的信息。
在步骤S107中,LMF 101可以在判断UE 105允许进行第一定位操作后,可以在向NEF 102发送的第三消息中携带接受信息和/或生成的定位信息,以表示接受NEF 102发送的针对UE 105进行第一定位操作的请求,其中,接受信息可以是接受指示(accept indication)或确认字符(acknowledgement,ACK),或者其他表示允许进行第一定位操作接受的信息;生成的定位信息可以是LMF 101根据第一定位操作的信息对UE 105进行第一定位操作后确定的UE 105的位置信息。另外,LMF 101可以在判断不允许对UE 105进行第一定位操作后,可以在向NEF 102发送的第三消息中携带拒绝信息,以表示拒绝NEF 102发送的针对UE 105进行第一定位操作的请求,拒绝信息可以是拒绝指示(reject indication)或否认字符(negative acknowledgement,NACK),或者其他的表示不允许进行第一定位操作的信息。
在步骤S109中,NEF 102可以在收到LMF 101发送的第三消息后,向第三方设备104发送第二消息。其中,若LMF 101发送的第三消息包括LMF 101生成的定位信息,则NEF 102可以将该定位信息携带在第二消息中发送至第三方设备104,从而根据第三方设备104的请求,向第三方设备提供了UE 105的定位信息。另外,NEF 102还可以在第二消息中携带第三消息中携带的接受信息或拒绝信息。
下面以图8至图10为例,说明本申请实施例提供的一种进行定位操作的方法。
实施例一
以如图1所示的一种定位操作的系统为例,本申请实施例提供的一种进行定位操作的 方法中,在UE 105进行无线网络注册时,LMF 101确定为UE 105提供定位服务并将UE 105的标识以及LMF 101的信息发送至UDM 103的流程示意图如图8所示,包括以下步骤:
步骤801:UE 105向AMF 107发送注册请求;可选的,UE 105在向AMF 107发送的注册请求中携带UE 105的定位配置信息,其中UE 105的定位配置信息可以是表示UE 105开启定位操作的信息;
步骤802:AMF 107进行UE 105的注册,并将LMF101作为可以向UE 105提供定位服务的LMF;可选的,AMF 107在确定UE 105的注册请求中携带定位配置信息后,将LMF101作为可以向UE 105提供定位服务的LMF;
步骤803:AMF 107向LMF 101发送第四消息,并携带UE 105的标识,用于请求LMF 101平淡是否为UE 105提供定位服务;
步骤804:LMF 101接收携带UE 105的标识的第四消息后,向UDM 103发送UE 105的标识,用于从UDM 103获取UE 105的定位配置信息以判断是否为UE 105提供定位服务;
步骤805:UDM 103根据UE 105的标识,以及UE的标识与定位配置信息的对应关系,确定UE 105的标识对应的定位配置信息,其中,UE的标识与定位配置信息的对应关系可以是预先设置的,也可以是UDM 103根据LMF上报的UE的标识与定位配置信息的对应关系进行更新的;
步骤806:UDM 103将UE 105的定位配置信息发送至LMF 101;
步骤807:LMF 101根据UE 105的定位配置信息,确定为UE 105提供定位服务;
步骤808:LMF 101向AMF 107发送携带接受指示的第三消息,其中携带LMF 101的服务区域信息,以及LMF 101向UDM 103发送LMF 101的信息以及UE 105的标识;
步骤809:UDM 103接收并存储LMF 101发送的LMF 101的信息以及UE 105的标识,用于UDM 103在收到NEF根据第三方设备发送的UE的标识后,确定为UE的标识所属的UE提供定位服务的LMF;
步骤810:AMF 107向UE 105发送注册接受消息,表示UE 105的注册过程完成,之后结束本流程。
采用以上方法,UDM 103能够得到UE 105的标识以及为UE 105提供服务的LMF 101的信息的对应关系,根据这一对应关系,UDM 103能够在步骤S102中根据NEF 102发送的UE 105的标识,确定为UE 105提供定位服务的LMF 101的信息,并将LMF 101的信息发送至NEF 102,从而在步骤S103中,NEF 102能够根据UE 105的标识确定为UE 105提供服务的LMF 101的信息,进一步向LMF 101发送第一消息。
另外在实施中,UE 105还可以在步骤801中向AMF 107发送的注册请求中携带UE 105的定位配置信息,其中,定位配置信息可以包括UE 105开启定位服务的信息或者包括UE 105允许进行的定位操作的信息,以表示UE 105开启了定位服务,则AMF 107可以根据UE 105的定位配置信息为UE 105分配LMF 101,并将定位配置信息发送至为UE分配的LMF 101;此后在步骤808中,LMF 101可以将UE 105的定位配置信息以及UE 105的标识发送至UDM 103,用于UDM 103存储UE 105的定位配置信息,从而UDM 103能够得到UE 105的标识以及UE 105的定位配置信息之间的对应关系,用于在为UE 105提供服务的LMF发生变化后,向变化后的LMF提供UE 105的定位配置信息,具体的,UDM 103可以在接收到为UE 105提供服务的LMF发送的UE 105的标识后,向LMF发送UE 105 的定位配置信息。
实施例二
仍以如图1所示的一种定位操作的系统为例,若UE 105自身的定位配置信息发生变化,UE 105可以在定位配置信息发生变化后通过AMF 107向LMF 101发送定位配置信息,此后,由LMF 101将UE 105的定位配置信息发送至UDM 103进行存储;或者,UE 105也可以按照预设时长的间隔,或者在预设时间到达后,将自身的定位配置信息通过AMF 107发送至LMF 101,之后由LMF 101将UE 105的定位配置信息发送至UDM 103进行存储。
UE 105通过AMF 107向LMF 101以及UDM 103上报自身定位配置信息的详细过程如图9所示,包括以下步骤:
步骤901:UE 105确定需要上报自身的定位配置信息,其中,UE 105可以在自身的定位配置信息发生变化,或者在预设时长的间隔或预设时间到达后,确定需要上报自身的定位配置信息;
步骤902:UE 105向AMF 107发送定位配置信息,其中,UE 105上报的定位配置信息可以仅仅是发生变化的定位配置信息,也可以是UE 105的全部的定位配置信息;可选的,UE 105上报的定位配置信息可以是指示UE 105是否开启定位服务的信息;
步骤903:AMF 107将UE 105的定位配置信息发送至LMF 101;
步骤904:LMF 101在收到UE 105的定位配置信息后,将UE 105的标识与定位配置信息的对应关系存储在本地,并将UE 105的定位配置信息将UE 105的标识与UE 105的定位配置信息发送至UDM 103,之后执行步骤905和步骤906;
步骤905:UDM 103在收到UE 105的标识与UE 105的定位配置信息后,存储UE 105的标识与定位配置信息的对应关系,之后执行步骤907;
步骤906:LMF 101向AMF 107发送表示已接收到UE 105的定位配置信息的响应消息,之后执行步骤908;
步骤907:UDM 103向LMF 101发送表示已存储UE 105的标识与定位配置信息的对应关系的响应消息,之后结束本流程;
步骤908:AMF 107向UE 105发送表示LMF 101已接受UE 105的定位配置信息的响应消息,之后结束本流程。
采用以上方法,可以将UE 105的定位配置信息存储至LMF 101以及UDM 103,用于LMF101在收到针对UE 105的第一定位操作信息后,LMF 101根据本地存储的UE 105的定位状态信息或者根据UDM 103存储的UE 105的定位状态信息,判断是否允许对UE 105进行第一定位操作。

步骤1009:UDM 103将UE 105的定位配置信息发送至LMF 101;
步骤1010:LMF 101根据UE 105的定位配置信息确定UE 105允许的定位操作;
步骤1011:LMF 101判断第一定位操作是否属于UE 105允许的定位操作,若是,则LMF 101判断允许对UE 105进行第一定位操作并执行步骤1012,否则LMF 101不允许对UE 105进行第一定位操作并执行步骤1013;
步骤1012:LMF 101向NEF 102发送包括接受指示的第三消息,并根据第一定位操作信息确定第二定位操作信息,以及向UDM 103发送第二定位操作信息和UE 105的标识,之后执行步骤1014,其中,UE 105的标识可以是UE 105的SUPI,第二定位操作信息可以用于指示允许对以UE 105进行的定位操作,例如,第二定位操作信息所指示的定位操作的类型可以为按照预设时长的间隔对UE进行定位,第二定位操作信息所指示的定位操作的参数可以是表示预设时长为10分钟的信息;
步骤1013:LMF 101向NEF 102发送包括拒绝指示的第三消息,之后执行步骤1013;
步骤1014:LMF 101根据第二定位操作信息执行第二定位操作,之后结束本流程;
步骤1015:NEF 102根据包括拒绝信息的第三消息,向第三方设备104发送第二消息,之后结束本流程;

具体来说,步骤1012中LMF 101可以根据第二定位操作信息所指示的定位操作的类型标识和/或参数,对UE 105进行定位、停止执行定位操作或者修改定位操作的类型和/或参数。
在另一种可行的实施方式中,参照如图10所示的一种进行定位操作的方法的具体流程示意图,在步骤1012中,LMF 101还可以将确定的第二定位操作信息以及UE 105的标识携带在向NEF 102发送的第三消息中,而可以不再需要向UDM 103发送第二定位操作信息和UE 105的标识,NEF 102在收到第二定位操作信息以及UE 105的标识后,可以将第二定位操作信息以及UE 105的标识发送至第三方设备104和/或UDM 103,从而第三方 设备104能够得知LMF 101执行的第二定位操作的信息,和/或,UDM 103能够存储LMF 101执行的第二定位操作的信息,在此后LMF 101或者其他的LMF对UE 105进行定位操作时能够快速确定需要执行的第二定位操作的信息。
