Description

一种性能数据统计方法及相关设备
本申请要求于2018年6月21日提交中国国家知识产权局、申请号为201810642853.3、发明名称为“一种性能数据统计方法及相关设备”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
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种性能数据统计方法及相关设备。
背景技术
第四代移动通信系统(即4G)的核心网设备包括服务网关(serving gateway,SGW)、分组数据网络网关(packet data network gateway,PDN-GW或PGW)和数据流探测功能(traffic detection function,TDF)实体。其中,SGW的主要功能包括:进行eNode B间切换时,作为本地锚定点,并协助完成eNode B的重排序功能;在3GPP不同接入系统间切换时,作为移动性锚点;执行合法侦听功能;进行数据包的路由和前转;在上行和下行传输层进行分组标记;用于运营商间的计费等。PGW的主要功能包括:基于用户的包过滤功能、合法侦听功能、用户终端设备(user equipment,UE)的IP地址分配功能、在上行链路中进行数据包传送级标记、进行上下行服务等级计费以及服务水平门限的控制、进行基于业务的上下行速率的控制等。TDF属于连接在PGW与Internet之间的SGI接口的位置,用于识别和探测业务类型,触发事件上报到策略与计费规则功能单元(policy and charging rules function,PCRF)以便于实现PGW的策略更新。
在4G的核心网控制面与用户面分离的系统架构中,如图1所示,SGW、PGW、TDF被划分为控制面功能实体SGW-C、PGW-C、TDF-C和用户面功能实体SGW-U、PGW-U、TDF-U。控制面功能实体用于对用户面功能实体进行管理,或实现其他非会话级的管理功能。用户面功能实体用于为控制面功能实体提供服务,例如用户面功能实体可根据控制平面下发的控制指令建立会话承载,完成用户数据的转发。一个控制面功能实体可以管理多个用户面功能实体,一个用户面功能实体可以为多个控制面功能实体提供服务。图2以控制面功能实体为SGW-C,用户面功能实体为SGW-U为例。如图2所示,SGW-C1管理SGW-U1和SGW-U2,SGW-C2管理SGW-U2和SGW-U3,SGW-C3管理SGW-U3和SGW-U4。同理,一个PGW-C也可以管理多个PGW-U,一个PGW-U可以为多个PGW-C提供服务。一个TDF-C也可以管理多个TDF-U,一个TDF-U可以为多个TDF-C提供服务。
第五代移动通信系统(即5G)对下一代核心网设备的网络架构进行了重新调整。如图3所示,5G核心网设备的网络架构中包括会话管理功能实体(session management function,SMF)和用户面功能实体(user plane function,UPF)。SMF即为控制面功能实体。SMF用于对UPF进行管理,例如,SMF需要负责管理UPF的选择,策略下发,事件上报,UPF心跳检查,UPF负荷上报等非会话级的管理功能。UPF用于为SMF提供服务,例如,UPF可根据SMF下发的控制指令建立会话承载,完成用户数据的转发。同理,如图4所示,一个SMF可以管理多个UPF。一个UPF可以同时为多个SMF提供服务。
如图2和图4所示,现有运营支撑系统(operations support system,OSS)要观察系统的性能指标需要连接到所有的控制面功能实体获取控制面性能数据,以及需要连接到所有用户面功能实体上获取用户面性能数据。然而在现有技术中,一个用户面功能实体统计的用户面性能数据都是根据用户面功能实体上的所有报文统计得到的。例如,如图4所示的UPF2根据UPF2上面的所有报文统计报文千字节数,这就导致OSS无法区分SMF1和SMF2在UPF2分别对应的用户面性能数据,从而导致了无法对每个SMF对应的用户面性能数据进行分析。因此,如何对控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计是目前亟待解决的问题。
发明内容
本申请提供了一种性能数据统计方法及相关设备,能够对控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计。
第一方面,本申请提供了一种性能数据统计方法,该方法应用于用户面功能实体,该方法包括:接收第一信息,该第一信息用于指示对第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计,该第一信息携带第一控制面功能实体的标识;当根据会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识,确定会话归属于第一控制面功能实体时,根据会话下的报文统计性能数据;将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据。

可选的,当用户面功能实体接收到第一报文时,确定第一报文所在会话,第一报文为接收的任一报文;当根据会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识,确定会话归属于第一控制面功能实体时,根据会话下的报文统计性能数据的具体实施方式为:当根据第一报文所在会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识,确定第一报文所在会话归属于第一控制面功能实体时,根据第一报文统计性能数据。
通过实施该可选的实施方式,用户面功能实体能够准确地确定归属于第一控制面功能实体的会话的报文,并根据该报文统计第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据。
可选的,第一信息用于指示对第一控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计,第一信息还携带第一实例的标识;当根据会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识,确定会话归属于第一控制面功能实体时,根据会话下的报文统计性能数据的具体实施方式为:当根据会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识和实例的标识,确定会话归属于第一控制面功能实体和第一实例时,根据会话下的报文统计性能数据;将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据的具体实施方式为:将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据。
现有技术中用户面功能实体无法区分某些实例对应的会话,从而导致用户面功能实体无法对某些实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计。可见,通过实施该可选的方式,用户面功能实体能够对控制面功能实体和指定实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计。
可选的,用户面功能实体还可执行以下步骤:接收第一控制面功能实体发送的用于请求建立第一会话的请求消息,该请求消息携带实例的标识;建立第一会话,并在第一会话 中写入第一控制面功能实体的标识和请求消息中的实例的标识。
通过实施该可选的方式,可以对第一会话所归属的控制面功能实体和实例进行标记,从而有利于查找到制面功能实体和实例对应的会话。

第一控制面功能实体接收第一控制面功能实体在各个用户面功能实体上的用户面性能数据之后,可汇总用户面性能数据上报给OSS,从而不需要OSS自己接收各个用户面功能实体上的用户面性能数据汇总得到第一控制面功能实体总的用户面性能数据,可为OSS分担负荷。
可选的,用户面功能实体还可执行以下步骤:缓存上报至第一控制面功能实体的用户面性能数据;在第二时间内接收到第一控制面功能实体反馈的用于指示已收到用户面性能数据的指示消息时,删除缓存的用户面性能数据。
在上传用户面性能数据之后不马上删除用户面性能数据,而是将用户面性能数据缓存下来,这样可以避免第一控制面功能实体未接收到用户面性能数据时,造成用户面性能数据丢失。相应地,若在第二时间内未接收到第一控制面功能实体反馈的用于指示已收到用户面性能数据的指示消息时,重新上传缓存的用户面性能数据至第一控制面功能实体。这样可以确保第一控制面功能实体能够成功接收到用户面性能数据。
可选的,第一信息中还携带第一时间。

通过实施第二方面所描述的方法,控制面功能实体可向控制面功能实体管理的一个或多个用户面功能实体发送用于指示对控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计的第一信息,从而用户面功能实体可对控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计。并且通过第一控制面功能实体向用户面功能实体发送第一信息,OSS不需要向每个控制面功能实体和每个用户面功能实体发送用于指示对第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计的信息,从而可分担OSS的负荷。
可选的,第一信息用于指示对控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计,该第一信息还携带第一实例的标识;以第一时间为周期统计第一时间内的控制面性能数据的具体实施方式为:以第一时间为周期统计第一时间内第一实例对应的控制面性能数据。
通过实施该可选的实施方式,可向用户面功能实体发送用于指示对控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计的第一信息,从而用户面功能实体可对控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计。
可选的,控制面功能实体还可向控制面功能实体管理的任意一个用户面功能实体发送用于请求建立第一会话的请求消息,请求消息携带实例的标识。
通过在用于请求第一会话的请求消息中携带实例的标识,从而用户面功能实体可在建立第一会话时,标记第一会话所属的控制面功能实体和实例,从而有利于后续查找控制面功能实体和实例对应的会话。
可选的,控制面功能实体还可执行以下步骤:以第一时间为周期接收控制面功能实体管理的一个或多个用户面功能实体上报的在第一时间内统计的用户面性能数据;汇总一个或多个用户面功能实体上报的在第一时间内统计的用户面性能数据;向运营支撑系统OSS上报控制面性能数据和汇总的用户面性能数据。

具体实施方式
下面结合附图对本申请具体实施例作进一步的详细描述。
本申请实施例提供了一种性能数据统计方法及相关设备,能够对控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计。
为了能够更好地理解本申请实施例,下面对本申请实施例的通信系统进行说明。
图5是本申请实施例提供的一种通信系统的示意图。如图5所示,本申请实施例的通信系统中包括一个或多个控制面功能实体和一个或多个用户面功能实体。图5以通信系统包括两个控制面功能实体和3个用户面功能实体为例。可选的,该通信系统中还可包括运营支撑系统(operations support system,OSS)。其中,控制面功能实体可以为SMF、SGW-C、PGW-C或TDF-C等。用户面功能实体可以为UPF、SGW-U、PGW-U或TDF-U等。当控制面功能实体为SMF时,用户面功能实体为UPF。当控制面功能实体为SGW-C时,用户面功能实体为SGW-U。当控制面功能实体为PGW-C时,用户面功能实体为PGW-U。当控制面功能实体为TDF-C时,用户面功能实体为TDF-U。一个控制面功能实体可以管理多个用户面功能实体,一个用户面功能实体可以为多个控制面功能实体提供服务。例如,图5中的控制面功能实体1管理用户面功能实体1和用户面功能实体2,控制面功能实体2管理用户面功能实体2和用户面功能实体3。
以下对本申请所提供的性能数据统计方法及相关设备进行详细地介绍。
请参见图6,图6是本申请实施例提供的一种性能数据统计方法的流程示意图。如图6所示,该性能数据统计方法包括如下601~603部分,其中:
601、用户面功能实体接收第一信息。
其中,该第一信息用于指示对第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计,该第一信息携带第一控制面功能实体的标识。第一控制面功能实体为任意一个控制面功能实体。例如,可以是图5中的控制面功能实体1或控制面功能实体2。第一控制面功能实体的标识为用于确定第一控制面功能实体的身份的信息。其中,步骤601中的用户面功能实体为第一控制面功能实体管理的用户面功能实体。例如,第一控制面功能实体为控制面功能实体1时,步骤601中的用户面功能实体可以为用户面功能实体1或用户面功能实体2。第一控制面功能实体为控制面功能实体2时,步骤601中的用户面功能实体可以为用户面功能实体2或用户面功能实体3。
可选的,第一信息可来自OSS或第一控制面功能实体,或来自其他设备,本申请实施例不做限定。
可选的,第一信息中可携带第一时间,这样用户面功能实体接收第一信息之后,可以第一时间为周期根据属于第一控制面功能实体的会话下的报文统计第一时间内的用户面性能数据。当然第一信息中也可不携带第一时间,用户面功能实体可以以默认设置的时间为第一时间,并以第一时间为周期统计第一时间内的用户面性能数据。
第一信息中也可携带用户面性能统计项的标识,如用户面性能统计项的ID或名称等。这样用户面功能实体接收携带用户面性能统计项的标识的第一信息之后,可以根据属于第一控制面功能实体的会话下的报文统计该用户面性能统计项的用户面性能数据。即用户面功能实体根据属于第一控制面功能实体的会话下的报文仅统计和上报其订阅的性能统计项,不用对所有的性能统计项进行统计和上报。当然,若第一信息中不携带用户面性能统计项的标识,用户面功能实体针对属于该控制面功能实体的会话的报文可以对默认设置的性能统计项进行统计。
可选的,若第一信息来自OSS,则OSS还可向第一控制面功能实体发送用于指示进行控制面性能数据统计的指示信息。第一控制面功能实体接收该指示信息之后,就以第一时间为周期统计所述第一时间内的控制面性能数据。也就是说,在该可选的方式中,由OSS向第一控制面功能实体和用户面功能实体分别发送用于指示进行性能统计的信息。其中,该指示信息可携带第一时间,或第一时间可以是第一控制面功能实体默认设置的。该指示信息中还可携带需要统计的控制面性能统计项的标识,如控制面性能统计项的ID或名称等。
第一信息来自第一控制面功能实体的具体实施方式可参见图8所对应的描述。
举例来说,第一用户面功能实体为SGW-U时,用户面性能统计项可以为以下数据中的任意一种或多种:SGW-U S1-U上行用户面报文包数、SGW-U S1-U上行用户面报文千字节数、SGW-U S1-U上行收用户面报文峰值包速率、SGW-U S1-U上行用户面报文峰值千字节速率、SGW-U S1-U下行用户面报文包数、SGW-U S1-U下行用户面报文千字节数、SGW-U S1-U下行用户面报文峰值包速率、SGW-U S1-U下行用户面报文峰值千字节速率、SGW-U GTP based S5/S8下行用户面报文包数、SGW-U GTP based S5/S8下行用户面报文千字节数、SGW-U GTP based S5/S8下行用户面报文峰值包速率、SGW-U GTP based S5/S8下行用户面报文峰值千字节速率、SGW-U GTP based S5/S8上行用户面报文包数、SGW-U GTP based S5/S8上行用户面报文千字节数、SGW-U GTP based S5/S8上行用户面报文峰值包速率、SGW-U GTP based S5/S8上行用户面报文峰值千字节速率。
第一用户面功能实体为PGW-U时,用户面性能统计项可以为以下数据中的任意一种或多种:PGW-U GTP based S5/S8/S2a/S2b上行用户面报文包数、PGW-U GTP based S5/S8/S2a/S2b上行用户面报文千字节数、PGW-U GTP based S5/S8/S2a/S2b上行用户面报文峰值包速率、PGW-U GTP based S5/S8/S2a/S2b上行用户面报文峰值千字节速率、PGW-U GTP based S5/S8/S2a/S2b下行用户面报文包数、PGW-U GTP based S5/S8/S2a/S2b下行用户面报文千字节数、PGW-U GTP based S5/S8/S2a/S2b下行用户面报文峰值包速率、PGW-U GTP based S5/S8/S2a/S2b下行用户面报文峰值千字节速率、PGW-U SGi下行用户面报文包数、PGW-U SGi下行用户面报文千字节数、PGW-U SGi下行用户面报文峰值包速率、PGW-U SGi下行用户面报文峰值千字节速率、PGW-U SGi上行用户面报文包数、PGW-U SGi上行用户面报文千字节数、PGW-U SGi上行用户面报文峰值包速率、PGW-U SGi上行用户面报文峰值千字节速率、PGW-U SGi下行超过1500字节的用户面报文包数、PGW-U SGi口出错丢弃的IP包数量。
第一用户面功能实体为UPF时,用户面性能统计项可以为以下数据中的任意一种或多种:UPF N3接口上行用户面报文包数、UPF N3接口上行用户面报文千字节数、UPF N3接口上行用户面报文峰值包速率、UPF N3接口上行用户面报文峰值千字节速率、UPF N3接口下行用户面报文包数、UPF N3接口下行用户面报文千字节数、UPF N3接口下行用户面报文峰值包速率、UPF N3接口下行用户面报文峰值千字节速率、UPF N6接口下行用户面报文包数、UPF N6接口下行用户面报文千字节数、UPF N6接口下行用户面报文峰值包速率、UPF N6接口下行用户面报文峰值千字节速率、UPF N6接口上行用户面报文包数、UPF N6接口上行用户面报文千字节数、UPF N6接口上行用户面报文峰值包速率、UPF N6接口上行用户面报文峰值千字节速率。
602、当用户面功能实体根据会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识,确定会话归属于第一控制面功能实体时,根据会话下的报文统计性能数据。
具体地,用户面功能实体接收第一信息之后,当用户面功能实体根据会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识,确定会话归属于第一控制面功能实体时,根据会话下的报文统计性能数据。可选的,用户面功能实体可以以第一时间为周期根据会话下的报文统计第一时间内的性能数据。
其中,所有会话中都携带有所归属的控制面功能实体的标识。归属于控制面功能实体的会话为通过该控制面功能实体创建的会话。例如,控制面功能实体1向用户面功能实体2发送用于建立会话1的请求消息。用户面功能实体2接收该请求消息之后,创建会话1,并在会话1中写入控制面功能实体1的标识。其中,会话1归属于控制面功能实体1。
作为一种可选的实施方式,用户面功能实体接收第一信息之后,可先根据会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识,确定属于第一控制面功能实体的会话,再根据会话下的报文统计性能数据。
例如,用户面功能实体2具有会话1~5,则用户面功能实体2接收第一信息之后,若检测到会话1~3携带控制面功能实体1的标识,则用户面功能实体2确定会话1~3归属于控制面功能实体1。用户面功能实体2确定会话1~3归属于控制面功能实体1之后,检测会话1~3的报文,并根据会话1~3的报文统计性能数据。用户面功能实体可以以第一时间为周期 根据会话1~3的报文下的报文统计第一时间内的性能数据。例如,在0~5秒内检测到存在会话1的报文,则将统计上行用户面报文包数的计数器加1,又检测到存在会话2的报文时,又将统计上行用户面报文包数的计数器加1,又检测到属于会话1~3的报文时,又将统计上行用户面报文包数的计数器加1,依次类推。若最后在0~5秒内统计出统计上行用户面报文包数为10,则上行用户面报文包数10为控制面功能实体1的用户面性能数据。
作为一种可选的实施方式,当接收到第一报文时,确定第一报文所在会话,第一报文为接收的任一报文;当根据会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识,确定会话归属于第一控制面功能实体时,根据会话下的报文统计性能数据的具体实施方式为:当根据第一报文所在会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识,确定第一报文所在会话归属于第一控制面功能实体时,根据第一报文统计性能数据。也就是说,在该实施方式中,每接收到一个报文,就判断该报文所在会话是否归属于第一控制面功能实体,若是,则根据该报文统计性能数据。
例如,用户面功能实体2接收到报文1时,检测报文1所在会话1。若用户面功能实体2检测到会话1中携带控制面功能实体1的标识时,用户面功能实体2根据报文1统计性能数据。例如,性能数据为上行用户面报文包数时,用户面功能实体2将上行用户面报文包数加1。同理,在用户面功能实体2又接收到报文2时,检测报文2所在会话1。若用户面功能实体2检测到会话1中携带控制面功能实体1的标识时,用户面功能实体2根据报文2统计性能数据,用户面功能实体2将上行用户面报文包数又加1。用户面功能实体可以以第一时间为周期统计第一时间内的性能数据。若第一时间为5秒,若在0~5秒内统计出统计上行用户面报文包数为10,则上行用户面报文包数10为控制面功能实体1的用户面性能数据。
通过实施该可选的实施方式,用户面功能实体能够准确地确定归属于第一控制面功能实体的会话的报文,并根据该报文统计第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据。
603、用户面功能实体将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据。
可见,通过实施图6所描述的方法,用户面功能实体能够对控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计。
可选的,用户面功能实体将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据之后,可以第一时间为周期将第一时间内统计的用户面性能数据上报至第一控制面功能实体。
举例来说,用户面功能实体1以5秒为周期将5秒内统计得到的上行用户面报文包数100发送至控制面功能实体1,用户面功能实体2以5秒为周期将5秒内统计得到的上行用户面报文包数200发送至控制面功能实体1。
第一控制面功能实体接收第一控制面功能实体在各个用户面功能实体上的用户面性能数据之后,可汇总用户面性能数据上报给OSS,从而不需要OSS自己接收各个用户面功能实体上的用户面性能数据汇总得到第一控制面功能实体总的用户面性能数据,可为OSS分担负荷。
可选的,用户面功能实体可缓存上报至第一控制面功能实体的用户面性能数据;在第 二时间内接收到第一控制面功能实体反馈的用于指示已收到用户面性能数据的指示消息时,删除缓存的用户面性能数据。例如,用户面功能实体1和用户面功能实体2在上报上行用户面报文包数至控制面功能实体1之后,可缓存上报的上行用户面报文包数,在5秒以内接收到控制面功能实体1反馈的用于指示已收到用户面性能数据的指示消息时,删除缓存的用户面性能数据。在上传用户面性能数据之后不马上删除用户面性能数据,而是将用户面性能数据缓存下来,这样可以避免第一控制面功能实体未接收到用户面性能数据时,造成用户面性能数据丢失。相应地,若在第二时间内未接收到第一控制面功能实体反馈的用于指示已收到用户面性能数据的指示消息时,重新上传缓存的用户面性能数据至第一控制面功能实体。这样可以确保第一控制面功能实体能够成功接收到用户面性能数据。
当然,用户面功能实体将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据之后,也可直接用户面性能数据上报给OSS。
请参见图7,图7是本申请实施例提供的另一种性能数据统计方法的流程示意图。如图7所示,该性能数据统计方法包括如下701~704部分,其中:
701、第一控制面功能实体以第一时间为周期统计第一时间内的控制面性能数据。
其中,第一控制面功能实体可以是任意一个控制面功能实体。例如,可以是图5中的控制面功能实体1或控制面功能实体2。
例如,第一控制面功能实体可以以5秒为周期统计5秒内控制面性能数据。例如,统计0~5秒内的控制面性能数据之后,再统计5~10秒内的控制面性能数据,再统计10~15秒内的控制面性能数据,依次类推。
举例来说,第一控制面功能实体为SGW-C时,控制面性能数据可以为以下数据中的任意一种或多种:S5/S8(SGW-C)发送创建缺省承载请求消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)接收创建缺省承载成功响应消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)接收创建缺省承载失败响应消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)接收创建专有承载请求消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)发送创建专有承载成功响应消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)发送创建专有承载失败响应消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)发送更新承载请求消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)接收更新承载成功响应消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)接收更新承载失败响应消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)接收更新承载请求消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)发送更新承载成功响应消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)发送更新承载失败响应消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)发送删除承载请求消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)接收删除承载成功响应消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)接收删除承载失败响应消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)接收删除承载请求消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)发送删除承载成功响应消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)发送删除承载失败响应消息数、S5/S8(SGW-C)发送承载资源变更消息数。
第一控制面功能实体为PGW-C时,控制面性能数据可以为以下数据中的任意一种或多种:S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)接收创建缺省承载请求消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)发送创建缺省承载成功响应消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)发送创建缺省承载失败响应消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)发送创建专有承载请求消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)接收创建专有承载成功响应消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)接收创建专有承载失败响应消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)发送更新承载请求消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)接收更新承载成功响应消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)接收更新承载失败响应消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b (PGW-C)接收更新承载请求消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)发送更新承载成功响应消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)发送更新承载失败响应消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)发送删除承载请求消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)接收删除承载成功响应消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)接收删除承载失败响应消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)接收删除承载请求消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)发送删除承载成功响应消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)发送删除承载失败响应消息数、S5/S8/S2a/S2b(PGW-C)接收承载资源变更消息数。

702、第一控制面功能实体向第一控制面功能实体管理的一个或多个用户面功能实体发送第一信息。
其中,该第一信息用于指示对第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计,该第一信息携带第一控制面功能实体的标识。第一控制面功能实体的标识为用于确定第一控制面功能实体的身份的信息。其中,步骤702中的用户面功能实体为第一控制面功能实体管理的用户面功能实体。图7中以第一控制面功能实体管理两个用户面功能实体为例,当然第一控制面功能实体还可管理两个以上的用户面功能实体,相应地,图7中的用户面功能实体为两个以上。或者第一控制面功能实体还可管理一个用户面功能实体,相应地,图7中的用户面功能实体为一个。
例如,第一控制面功能实体为控制面功能实体1时,第一控制面功能实体向用户面功能实体1和用户面功能实体2发送第一信息。第一控制面功能实体为控制面功能实体2时,第一控制面功能实体向用户面功能实体2和用户面功能实体3发送第一信息。通过第一控制面功能实体向用户面功能实体发送用于指示对第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计的第一信息,OSS不需要向每个控制面功能实体和每个用户面功能实体发送用于指示对第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计的第一信息,从而可分担OSS的负荷。
可选的,第一控制面功能实体可以在预设时间点执行步骤701以及向其管理的一个或多个用户面功能实体发送第一信息。通过实施该实施方式,第一控制面功能实体可以在预设时间点开始自动统计控制面性能数据,并由第一控制面功能实体在预设时间点自动向用户面功能实体发送用于指示对第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计的第一信息。从而不需要OSS向每个控制面功能实体和每个用户面功能实体发送用于指示对性能数据进行统计的信息,从而可分担OSS的负荷。
或者,第一控制面功能实体可接收运营支撑系统OSS发送的指示信息,该指示信息用于指示第一控制面功能实体对控制面性能数据进行统计,以及对第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计。第一控制面功能实体接收该指示信息之后,执行步骤701以及向其管理的一个或多个用户面功能实体发送第一信息。通过实施该实施方式,OSS可只向控制面功能实体发送用于性能统计的信息,OSS不需要向每个控制面功能实体和每个用户面功能实体发送用于性能统计的信息,从而可分担OSS的负荷。其中,该指示信息可携带第一时间,或者该指示信息中还可携带需要统计的控制面性能统计项的标识和用户面性能统计项的标识。
703、当用户面功能实体根据会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识,确定会话归属于第一控制面功能实体时,根据会话下的报文统计性能数据。
704、用户面功能实体将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据。
步骤703和704可参见602和603的描述,在此不赘述。
可见,通过实施图7所描述的方法,用户面功能实体能够对控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据进行统计。
可选的,如图8所示,用户面功能实体将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据之后,可以第一时间为周期将第一时间内统计的用户面性能数据上报至第一控制面功能实体。第一控制面功能实体可执行以下步骤:以第一时间为周期接收控制面功能实体管理的一个或多个用户面功能实体上报的在第一时间内统计的用户面性能数据;汇总一个或多个用户面功能实体上报的在第一时间内统计的用户面性能数据;向运营支撑系统OSS上报控制面性能数据和汇总的用户面性能数据。或者,第一控制面功能实体以第一时间为周期接收控制面功能实体管理的一个或多个用户面功能实体上报的在第一时间内统计的用户面性能数据之后,可不对用户面性能数据进行汇总,可直接上传接收的用户面性能数据至OSS。这样运营商在OSS观察性能统计数据之后,可修改UPF选择策略,以实现多个UPF之间的负荷分担。
举例来说,用户面功能实体1以5秒为周期将5秒内统计得到的上行用户面报文包数100发送至控制面功能实体1,用户面功能实体2以5秒为周期将5秒内统计得到的上行用户面报文包数200发送至控制面功能实体1。控制面功能实体1接收用户面功能实体1和用户面功能实体2发送的上行用户面报文包数100和上行用户面报文包数200之后,将上行用户面报文包数进行汇总,即将上行用户面报文包数进行相加得到300。上行用户面报文包数300为控制面功能实体1总的用户面性能数据,控制面功能实体1将上行用户面报文包数300和自身检测到的控制面性能数据上报给OSS,以便OSS对性能数据进行分析。
第一控制面功能实体接收第一控制面功能实体在各个用户面功能实体上的用户面性能数据之后,汇总用户面性能数据上报给OSS,从而不需要OSS自己接收各个用户面功能实体上的用户面性能数据汇总得到第一控制面功能实体总的用户面性能数据,可为OSS分担负荷。
可选的,用户面功能实体可缓存上报至第一控制面功能实体的用户面性能数据;在第二时间内接收到第一控制面功能实体反馈的用于指示已收到用户面性能数据的指示消息时, 删除缓存的用户面性能数据。在上传用户面性能数据之后不马上删除用户面性能数据,而是将用户面性能数据缓存下来,这样可以避免第一控制面功能实体未接收到用户面性能数据时,造成用户面性能数据丢失。相应地,若在第二时间内未接收到第一控制面功能实体反馈的用于指示已收到用户面性能数据的指示消息时,重新上传缓存的用户面性能数据至第一控制面功能实体。这样可以确保第一控制面功能实体能够成功接收到用户面性能数据。
当然,用户面功能实体将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体对应的用户面性能数据之后,也可直接用户面性能数据上报给OSS。
请参见图9,图9是本申请实施例提供的另一种性能数据统计方法的流程示意图。如图9所示,该性能数据统计方法包括如下901~905部分,其中:
901、用户面功能实体接收第一信息。
其中,第一信息用于指示对控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计,第一信息携带第一控制面功能实体的标识和第一实例的标识。第一控制面功能实体的标识为用于确定第一控制面功能实体的身份的信息。第一实例的标识为用于确定第一实例的身份的信息。其中,步骤901中的用户面功能实体为第一控制面功能实体管理的用户面功能实体。其中,第一实例可以是APN、OCS、CS、DRA、HPLMN、SGSN、PCRF中的任意一种。
可选的,第一信息中可携带第一时间,这样用户面功能实体接收第一信息之后,可以第一时间为周期统计第一时间内的用户面性能数据。第一信息中也可携带第一实例对应的用户面性能统计项的标识,如用户面性能统计项的ID或名称等,这样用户面功能实体接收第一信息之后,可以根据第一实例对应的用户面性能统计项的标识统计用户面性能数据。
可选的,第一信息可来自OSS或第一控制面功能实体,或来自其他设备,本申请实施例不做限定。
可选的,若第一信息来自OSS,则OSS还可向第一控制面功能实体发送用于指示统计第一实例对应的控制面性能数据的指示信息。第一控制面功能实体接收该指示信息之后,就以第一时间为周期统计所述第一时间内第一实例对应的控制面性能数据。也就是说,在该可选的方式中,由OSS向第一控制面功能实体和用户面功能实体分别发送用于指示进行性能统计的信息。其中,该指示信息可携带第一时间,或第一时间可以是第一控制面功能实体默认设置的。该指示信息中还可携带需要统计的第一实例对应的控制面性能统计项的标识,如控制面性能统计项的ID或名称等。
第一信息来自第一控制面功能实体的具体实施方式可参见图10所对应的描述。
举例来说,第一实例对应的用户面性能统计项可以为:用户平面L2TP性能测量(指定APN)、SGW-U和PGW-U合一形态转发性能测量(指定APN)、用户平面用户基本会话业务测量(指定VPLMN)、用户平面转发性能测量(指定VPLMN)、用户平面基本会话业务测量(指定APN)、用户平面业务实例性能测量(指定业务实例)、用户平面转发性能测量(指定TAC)、用户平面转发性能测量(指定TAC Group)。
902、第一控制面功能实体向管理的任意一个用户面功能实体发送用于请求建立第一会话的请求消息,该请求消息携带实例的标识。
其中,实例的标识为能够确定实例身份的信息。
903、用户面功能实体建立第一会话,并在第一会话中写入第一控制面功能实体的标识和请求消息中的实例的标识。
其中,第一会话为任意一个会话。若第一信息来自OSS,则OSS需要将实例的标识发送至第一控制面功能实体。若第一控制面功能实体接收到用户终端发送的用于建立实例对应的第一会话的请求,则第一控制面功能实体向管理的任意一个用户面功能实体发送用于请求建立第一会话的请求消息,该请求消息携带实例的标识。用户面功能实体接收该请求消息之后,建立第一会话,并在第一会话中写入第一控制面功能实体的标识和请求消息中的实例的标识。
若第一信息来自第一控制面功能实体,第一控制面功能实体可以为实例分配标识。若第一控制面功能实体接收到用户终端发送的用于建立实例对应的第一会话的请求,则第一控制面功能实体向管理的任意一个用户面功能实体发送用于请求建立第一会话的请求消息,该请求消息携带第一控制面功能实体分配的实例的标识。用户面功能实体接收该请求消息之后,建立第一会话,并在第一会话中写入第一控制面功能实体的标识和请求消息中的实例的标识。
通过执行步骤902和903,可以对第一会话所归属的控制面功能实体和实例进行标记,从而有利于查找到制面功能实体和实例对应的会话。
当然也可以不通过902和903的方式在第一会话中记录第一控制面功能实体的标识和实例的标识,可通过其他方式在第一会话中记录第一控制面功能实体的标识和实例的标识。
904、当用户面功能实体根据会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识和实例的标识,确定会话归属于第一控制面功能实体和第一实例时,根据会话下的报文统计性能数据。
具体地,用户面功能实体接收第一信息之后,当用户面功能实体根据会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识和第一实例的标识,确定会话归属于第一控制面功能实体和第一实例时,根据会话下的报文统计性能数据。用户面功能实体可以以第一时间为周期根据会话下的报文对第一时间内第一实例的性能数据进行统计。
作为一种可选的实施方式,用户面功能实体接收第一信息之后,可先根据会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识和第一实例的标识,确定属于第一控制面功能实体和第一实例的会话,再根据会话下的报文统计性能数据。
作为一种可选的实施方式,当接收到第一报文时,确定第一报文所在会话,第一报文为接收的任一报文;当根据会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识和实例的标识,确定会话归属于第一控制面功能实体和第一实例时,根据会话下的报文统计性能数据的具体实施方式为:当根据第一报文所在会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识和实例的标识,确定第一报文所在会话归属于第一控制面功能实体和第一实例时,根据第一报文统计性能数据。也就是说,在该实施方式中,每接收到一个报文,就判断该报文所在会话是否归属于第一控制面功能实体和第一实例,若是,则根据该报文统计性能数据。
通过实施该可选的实施方式,用户面功能实体能够准确地确定归属于第一控制面功能实体和第一实例的会话的报文,并根据该报文统计第一控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据。
905、用户面功能实体将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据。
现有技术中用户面功能实体无法区分某些实例对应的会话,从而导致用户面功能实体无法对某些实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计。可见,通过实施图9所描述的方法,用户面功能实体能够对控制面功能实体和指定实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计。
可选的,用户面功能实体将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据之后,可以第一时间为周期将第一时间内统计的用户面性能数据上报至第一控制面功能实体。
可选的,缓存上报至第一控制面功能实体的用户面性能数据;在第二时间内接收到第一控制面功能实体反馈的用于指示已收到用户面性能数据的指示消息时,删除缓存的用户面性能数据。在上传用户面性能数据之后不马上删除用户面性能数据,而是将用户面性能数据缓存下来,这样可以避免第一控制面功能实体未接收到用户面性能数据时,造成用户面性能数据丢失。相应地,若在第二时间内未接收到第一控制面功能实体反馈的用于指示已收到用户面性能数据的指示消息时,重新上传缓存的用户面性能数据至第一控制面功能实体。这样可以确保第一控制面功能实体能够成功接收到用户面性能数据。
当然,用户面功能实体将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据之后,也可直接将用户面性能数据上报给OSS。
请参见图10,图10是本申请实施例提供的另一种性能数据统计方法的流程示意图。如图10所示,该性能数据统计方法包括如下1001~1006部分,其中:
1001、第一控制面功能实体以第一时间为周期统计第一时间内第一实例对应的控制面性能数据。
其中,第一控制面功能实体可以是任意一个控制面功能实体。例如,可以是图5中的控制面功能实体1或控制面功能实体2。
例如,第一控制面功能实体可以以5秒为周期统计5秒内第一实例对应的控制面性能数据。例如,统计0~5秒内第一实例对应的控制面性能数据之后,再统计5~10秒内第一实例对应的控制面性能数据,再统计10~15秒内第一实例对应的控制面性能数据,依次类推。
其中,第一实例可以是APN、OCS、CS、DRA、HPLMN、SGSN、PCRF中的任意一种。例如,第一实例对应的控制面性能统计项可以为:SGW-C基本会话业务测量(指定APN)、PGW-C基本会话业务测量(指定APN)、控制平面基本会话业务测量(指定APN)、控制平面在线计费业务性能测量(指定OCS)、控制平面Ga接口性能测量(指定CG)、PGW-C 3G会话性能测量(指定APN)、PGW-C 2G会话性能测量(指定APN)、控制平面会话状态统计(指定APN)、控制平面Diameter性能统计项(指定DRA)、控制平面AAA性能测量(指定APN)、PGW-C 2/3G会话性能测量(指定APN、分业务类型)、GW控制平面基本会话性能测量(指定HPLMN)、PGW-C 2/3G测量基本会话性能(指定SGSN)、控制平面Gx接口性能测量(指定APN)、控制平面PCC会话测量(指定APN)、SGW-C和PGW-C合一形态基本会话业务测量(指定APN)、控制平面Gx接口性能测量(指定PCRF主机)、控制平面PCC会话测量(指定PCRF主机)、控制平面在线计费命令层返回码测量(指定OCS)、控制平面在线计费业务层 返回码测量(指定OCS)、控制平面GW用户基本会话业务测量(指定VPLMN)。
1002、第一控制面功能实体向第一控制面功能实体管理的一个或多个用户面功能实体发送第一信息。
其中,第一信息用于指示对控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计,第一信息携带第一控制面功能实体的标识和第一实例的标识。第一控制面功能实体的标识为用于确定第一控制面功能实体的身份的信息。第一实例的标识为用于确定第一实例的身份的信息。其中,步骤1002中的用户面功能实体为第一控制面功能实体管理的用户面功能实体。
可选的,第一信息中可携带第一时间,这样用户面功能实体接收第一信息之后,可以第一时间为周期根据属于第一控制面功能实体和第一实例的会话下的报文统计第一时间内的用户面性能数据。当然第一信息中也可不携带第一时间,用户面功能实体可以以默认设置的时间为第一时间,并以第一时间为周期统计第一时间内的用户面性能数据。
第一信息中也可携带用户面性能统计项的标识,如用户面性能统计项的ID或名称等。这样用户面功能实体接收携带用户面性能统计项的标识的第一信息之后,可以根据属于第一控制面功能实体和第一实例的会话下的报文统计该用户面性能统计项的用户面性能数据。即用户面功能实体根据属于第一控制面功能实体和第一实例的会话下的报文仅统计和上报其订阅的性能统计项,不用对所有的性能统计项进行统计和上报。当然,若第一信息中不携带用户面性能统计项的标识,用户面功能实体针对属于该控制面功能实体和第一实例的会话的报文可以对默认设置的性能统计项进行统计。
通过第一控制面功能实体向用户面功能实体发送用于指示对第一控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计的第一信息,OSS不需要向每个控制面功能实体和每个用户面功能实体发送用于指示对第一控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计的第一信息,从而可分担OSS的负荷。
可选的,第一控制面功能实体可以在预设时间点执行步骤1001以及向其管理的一个或多个用户面功能实体发送第一信息。或者,第一控制面功能实体可接收运营支撑系统OSS发送的指示信息,该指示信息用于指示第一控制面功能实体对控制面性能数据进行统计,以及对第一控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计。第一控制面功能实体接收该指示信息之后,执行步骤1001以及向其管理的一个或多个用户面功能实体发送第一信息。通过实施该实施方式,OSS可只向控制面功能实体发送用于性能统计的信息,OSS不需要向每个控制面功能实体和每个用户面功能实体发送用于性能统计的信息,从而可分担OSS的负荷。其中,该指示信息可携带第一时间,或者该指示信息中还可携带需要统计的第一实例对应的控制面性能统计项的标识和用户面性能统计项的标识。
1003、第一控制面功能实体向管理的任意一个用户面功能实体发送用于请求建立第一会话的请求消息,该请求消息携带实例的标识。
其中,实例的标识为能够确定实例身份的信息。
1004、用户面功能实体建立第一会话,并在第一会话中写入第一控制面功能实体的标识和请求消息中的实例的标识。
第一控制面功能实体可以为实例分配标识。若第一控制面功能实体接收到用户终端发 送的用于建立实例对应的第一会话的请求,则第一控制面功能实体向管理的任意一个用户面功能实体发送用于请求建立第一会话的请求消息,该请求消息携带第一控制面功能实体分配的实例的标识。用户面功能实体接收该请求消息之后,建立第一会话,并在第一会话中写入第一控制面功能实体的标识和请求消息中的实例的标识。
通过执行步骤1003和1004,可以对第一会话所归属的控制面功能实体和实例进行标记,从而有利于查找到制面功能实体和实例对应的会话。
当然也可以不通过1003和1004的方式在第一会话中记录第一控制面功能实体的标识和实例的标识,可通过其他方式在第一会话中记录第一控制面功能实体的标识和实例的标识。
1005、当根据会话携带的所归属的控制面功能实体的标识和实例的标识,确定会话归属于第一控制面功能实体和第一实例时,根据会话下的报文统计性能数据。
1006、将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据。
步骤1005和1006可参见904和905的描述,在此不赘述。
现有技术中用户面功能实体无法区分某些实例对应的会话,从而导致用户面功能实体无法对某些实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计。可见,通过实施图10所描述的方法,用户面功能实体能够对控制面功能实体和指定实例对应的用户面性能数据进行统计。
可选的,如图11所示,用户面功能实体将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据之后,可以第一时间为周期将第一时间内统计的用户面性能数据上报至第一控制面功能实体。相应地,第一控制面功能实体可执行以下步骤:以第一时间为周期接收控制面功能实体管理的一个或多个用户面功能实体上报的在第一时间内统计的用户面性能数据;汇总一个或多个用户面功能实体上报的在第一时间内统计的用户面性能数据;向运营支撑系统OSS上报控制面性能数据和汇总的用户面性能数据。
可选的,缓存上报至第一控制面功能实体的用户面性能数据;在第二时间内接收到第一控制面功能实体反馈的用于指示已收到用户面性能数据的指示消息时,删除缓存的用户面性能数据。在上传用户面性能数据之后不马上删除用户面性能数据,而是将用户面性能数据缓存下来,这样可以避免第一控制面功能实体未接收到用户面性能数据时,造成用户面性能数据丢失。相应地,若在第二时间内未接收到第一控制面功能实体反馈的用于指示已收到用户面性能数据的指示消息时,重新上传缓存的用户面性能数据至第一控制面功能实体。这样可以确保第一控制面功能实体能够成功接收到用户面性能数据。
当然,用户面功能实体将统计得到的性能数据作为第一控制面功能实体和第一实例对应的用户面性能数据之后,也可直接将用户面性能数据上报给OSS。
