  • MME mobility management entity
  • the network in particular a home subscriber server simply referred to as an HSS
  • a million messages are required to inform the serving node (s) about the configuration being ended/deleted.
  • the monitoring event has been configured for a large group (e.g. a group having thousands of UEs) , it is difficult to add a new individual member UE to the group or delete a given UE from the group when there is a configuration already initiated or activated in the network.

  • each car has a UE identity (ID) e.g. a subscriber identification module (SIM) card.
  • ID e.g. a subscriber identification module (SIM) card.
  • SIM subscriber identification module
  • the cars may be grouped by an External Group ID since they are to be treated in the same manner when it comes to configuration.
  • the fleet management system may want to use group monitoring event function to monitor all cars (e.g., location reporting, roaming status, change of IMSI-IMEI (SV) association) .
  • IMSI refers to international mobile subscriber identification number
  • IMEI refers to international mobile equipment identity
  • SV refers to software version.
  • the cars may be rented from some third companies. Due to certain conditions (such as cars are broken, the lease ends, etc. ) , some cars will be removed from the group and some other cars will be added to the group.
  • the first problem is that the current procedures do not allow “hot” addition/removal of UE (s) for a group.
  • the term “hot” means an active configuration exists for the group.
  • an SCS/AS configures an event for a group, then after the configuration, if there is a new UE added into the group, the new added UE will not be monitored by the SCS/AS. Also, after the configuration, if there is an existing UE removed from the group, the removed UE will still be monitored by the SCS/AS. But in many cases, the SCS/AS wants to always monitor the event for the latest/updated group.
  • the SCS/AS wants to always monitor the event for the latest/updated group, whenever the group is changed, the SCS/AS should delete the previous monitoring event configuration for the group identified by the External Group ID, and then reconfigure a new monitoring event configuration using the same External Group ID.
  • the UE group information is stored in an HSS and there is no interface between the SCS/AS and the HSS to monitor the UE group. Based on the current Monitoring Event procedure, each time when a UE is added into/deleted from the group in the HSS, the SCS/AS does not know the group change. So the SCS/AS does not know when to delete the previous monitoring event configuration and reconfigure a new monitoring event for the group.
  • the second problem is that the traffic between HSS and MME/SGSN will be huge if only a few UEs are added into/deleted from a huge group.
  • the term SGSN refers to serving general packet radio service (GPRS) support node.
  • GPRS general packet radio service
  • the traffic between the HSS and the MME/SGSN is huge since the HSS must send an Insert Subscriber Data Request message to the MME/SGSN for each group member UE to delete/initiate the monitoring configuration.

Abstract

L'invention concerne des procédés et des appareils permettant de surveiller un service d'événement pour un groupe de dispositifs terminaux. Selon un mode de réalisation, un noeud de gestion d'abonné reçoit, en provenance d'un noeud d'exposition de réseau, une première demande pour s'abonner à un événement de surveillance pour un groupe de dispositifs terminaux. Le noeud de gestion d'abonné envoie, à un ou plusieurs nœuds de gestion de mobilité, des secondes demandes pour initier la configuration de l'événement de surveillance pour des dispositifs terminaux du groupe. En réponse à l'ajout ou à la suppression d'au moins un dispositif terminal du groupe lorsque la configuration déclenchée est active, le noeud de gestion d'abonné envoie, à un noeud de gestion de mobilité, une troisième demande pour initier ou supprimer la configuration de l'événement de surveillance pour l'au moins un dispositif terminal.
