图1示例性地示出了一种本申请应用的通信系统100的示意图。如图1所示,该通信系统100主要包括终端设备(User Equipment,UE)101、接入网(Access Network,AN)设备102、接入与移动性管理功能(Access and Mobility Management Function,AMF)实体103、会话管理功能(Session Management Function,SMF)实体104、用户面功能(User Plane Function,UPF)实体105、策略控制功能(Policy Control function,PCF)实体106、统一数据管理(Unified Data Management,UDM)实体107、数据网络(Data Network,DN)108、应用功能(Application Function,AF)实体109、鉴权服务器功能(Authentication Server Function,AUSF)实体110、网络切片选择功能(Network Slice Selection Function,NSSF)实体111。
具体地,在通信系统100中,UE 101通过Uu接口与AN设备102进行接入层连接,以交互接入层消息及无线数据传输,UE 101通过N1接口与AMF实体103进行非接入层(Non-Access Stratum,NAS)连接,以交互NAS消息;AN设备102通过N2接口与AMF实体103连接,以及AN设备102通过N3接口与UPF实体105连接;多个UPF实体105之间通过N9接口连接,UPF实体105通过N6接口与DN 108连接,同时,UPF实体105通过N4接口与SMF实体104连接;SMF实体104通过N7接口与PCF实体106连接,SMF实体104通过N10接口与UDM实体107连接,SMF实体104通过N4接口控制UPF实体105,同时,SMF实体104通过N11接口与AMF实体103连接;多个AMF实体103之间通过N14接口连接,AMF实体103通过N8接口与UDM实体107连接,AMF实体103通过N12接口与AUSF实体110连接,AMF实体103通过N22接口与NSSF实体111连接,同时,AMF实体103通过N15接口与PCF实体106连接;PCF实体106通过N5接口与AF实体109连接;AUSF实体110通过N13接口与UDM实体107连接。

另外,通信系统100中还存在网络开放功能(Network Exposure Function,NEF)实体,用于与第三方应用服务器接口,在核心网节点与第三方应用之间进行信息传递。
应理解,本申请实施例中网络/系统中具有通信功能的设备可称为通信设备。
需要说明的是,上述通信系统100是以5G通信系统为例进行说明,当然,本申请也可以适用于其他3GPP通信系统,例如4G通信系统,或者未来的3GPP通信系统,本申请对此并不限定。
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。
本申请实施例结合终端设备和网络设备描述了各个实施例,其中:终端设备也可以称为用户设备、接入终端、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等。终端设备可以是WLAN中的站点(STAION,ST),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)设备、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、可穿戴设备以及下一代通信系统,例如,NR网络中的终端设备或者未来演进的公共陆地移动网络(Public Land Mobile Network,PLMN)网络中的终端设备等。
作为示例而非限定,在本申请实施例中,该终端设备还可以是可穿戴设备。可穿戴设备也可以称为穿戴式智能设备,是应用穿戴式技术对日常穿戴进行智能化设计、开发出可以穿戴的设备的总称,如眼镜、手套、手表、服饰及鞋等。可穿戴设备即直接穿在身上,或是整合到用户的衣服或配件的一种便携式设备。可穿戴设备不仅仅是一种硬件设备,更是通过软件支持以及数据交互、云端交互来实现强大的功能。广义穿戴式智能设备包括功能全、尺寸大、可不依赖智能手机实现完整或者部分的功能,例如:智能手表或智能眼镜等,以及只专注于某一类应用功能,需要和其它设备如智能手机配合使用,如各类进行体征监测的智能手环、智能首饰等。
上述AN设备102可以是用于与移动设备通信的设备,AN设备102可以是WLAN中的接入点(Access Point,AP),GSM或CDMA中的基站(Base Transceiver Station,BTS),也可以是WCDMA中的基站(NodeB,NB),还可以是LTE中的演进型基站(Evolutional Node B,eNB或eNodeB),或者中继站或接入点,或者车载设备、可穿戴设备以及NR网络中的基站(gNB)或者未来演进的PLMN网络中的网络设备等。
在本申请实施例中,网络设备为小区提供服务,终端设备通过该小区使用的传输资源(例如,频域资源,或者说,频谱资源)与网络设备进行通信,该小区可以是网络设备(例如基站)对应的小区,小区可以属于宏基站,也可以属于小小区(Small cell)对应的基站,这里的小小区可以包括:城市小区(Metro cell)、微小区(Micro cell)、微微小区(Pico cell)、毫微微小区(Femto cell)等,这些小小区具有覆盖范围小、发射功率低的特点,适用于提供高速率的数据传输服务。
在本申请实施例中,具有ProSe能力的终端设备可以通过PC5接口与具有ProSe能力的另外一个终端设备直接通信。当一个终端设备既可以通过5G网络连接外部数据网络,还具有ProSe能力时,这个终端设备可以充当中继终端,另外一个具有ProSe能力的远端终端可以通过PC5接口与Relay UE建立直接连接,并通过远端终端与5G网络建立的PDU会话与外部网络交互。其系统架构如图2所示。如图2所示,远端终端通过PC5接口连接到中继终端,以及中继终端通过Uu接口连接下一代演进型无线接入网(Next Generation Evolutional Radio Access Network,NG-RAN),从而连接5G核心网(5G Core Network,5GC),5GC通过N6接口连接到应用服务器(application server,AS)。
需要说明的是,图2是以5G通信系统为例进行说明,当然,也可以适用于其他3GPP通信系统,例如4G通信系统,或者未来的3GPP通信系统,本申请对此并不限定。另外,在本申请实施例中, 图2中的应用服务器(AS)也可以是其他的终端设备或者外部公共安全互联网。
一个具有ProSe能力的远端终端通过PC5接口与中继终端建立直接连接,并通过中继终端与5G网络建立的PDU会话与外部网络交互时,因为远端终端是通过中继终端的PDU会话进行数据传输,网络侧仍然认为是中继终端接入网络进行数据传输,网络侧不单独维护远端终端的上下文,不感知远端终端和中继终端之间的PC5是连接还是断开状态。这就导致只有远端终端主动与中继终端建立了PC5连接时,才可以通过5G网络与对端的应用服务器或者对端的其他终端设备进行交互,如果远端终端与中继终端断开了PC5连接,对端的应用服务器或者对端的终端设备无法主动与远端终端交互,限制了远端终端通过中继终端接入网络的业务使用场景。例如,远端终端通过5G网络访问视频聊天应用,则远端终端对端的应用服务器为视频聊天应用服务器。又例如,远端终端通过5G网络访问浏览器,则远端终端对端的应用服务器为浏览器服务器。再例如,远端终端通过5G网络与目标终端进行交互,则远端终端对端的终端设备为目标终端。
基于上述问题,本申请提出了一种中继通信方案,中继终端在与远端终端的PC5连接断开后继续保持远端终端的上下文,当中继终端收到发送给远端终端的下行数据时,中继终端根据自身保存的远端终端的上下文,并触发远端终端和中继终端之间的PC5连接的重新建立,从而将下行数据发送给远端终端。
图3是根据本申请实施例的无线通信方法200的示意性流程图,如图3所示,该方法200可以包括但不限于如下内容:
S210,在中继终端与远端终端之间的连接断开之后,且该中继终端接收到目标为该远端终端的下行数据或者该中继终端接收到目标为该远端终端的下行数据通知消息的情况下,该中继终端触发重建与该远端终端之间的连接。
需要说明的是,远端终端通过中继终端接入网络,以及在远端终端与中继终端建立了PC5连接的情况下,远端终端可以通过网络与对端的应用服务器或者对端的其他终端设备进行交互。
在本申请实施例中,在中继终端与远端终端之间的连接断开之后,中继终端接收到目标为远端终端的下行数据或者中继终端接收到目标为远端终端的下行数据通知消息的情况下,中继终端触发重建与远端终端之间的连接。即远端终端对端的应用服务器或者对端的终端设备能够主动与远端终端交互,扩展了远端终端通过中继终端接入网络的业务使用场景,提升了用户体验。
可选地,中继终端与远端终端之间的连接可以是PC5连接。
在本申请实施例中,中继终端与远端终端之间的连接断开的原因可以是远端终端主动触发以断开连接,也可以是中继终端主动触发连接释放,还可以是因无线质量变差或者远端终端离开中继终端的覆盖范围之后且没有信令触发的连接断开。当然,中继终端与远端终端之间的连接还可以因为一些其他原因而断开,本申请对此并限定。

以下通过实施例1至实施例4详述本申请中的技术方案。
实施例1
在实施例1中,在远端终端通过中继终端接入5G网络之后,中继终端保存了远端终端的上下文信息。在远端终端与中继终端之间的PC5连接断开之后,中继终端继续保持远端终端的上下文信息。当接收到目标为远端终端的下行数据之后,中继终端向远端终端发起PC5连接重建。具体地,如图5所示,基于如下步骤1101至步骤1111实现本实施例技术方案。
步骤1101.远端终端建立与中继终端的PC5连接,通过本步骤,中继终端获取了远端终端的标识。该远端终端的标识具体包括:远端终端的应用层用户标识,和或,远端终端用于网络路由的网络层标识(例如,用于PC5通信的layer-2地址信息),和或,需要交互业务的应用层信息(例如应用标识或者应用类型等)。
步骤1102.中继终端建立或者修改PDU会话,用于传输远端终端的业务数据。
步骤1103.中继终端为远端终端分配用于数据传输的IP地址信息,例如IP地址、端口号、IP前缀等信息。
步骤1104.中继终端保存了远端终端的上下文信息,其中包括该远端终端的应用层标识和/或该远端终端的近距离通信终端标识。可选地,远端终端的上下文信息还包括应用信息(应用标识或者应用类型等),分配给远端终端的IP地址信息。可选地,该远端终端的近距离通信终端标识可以包括但不限于以下中的至少一种:网络层标识,链路层标识,近距离通信层2(layer-2)地址。
步骤1105.中继终端将远端终端的标识及IP地址信息发送到核心网的SMF实体,通知网络远端终端通过中继终端接入网络。
步骤1106.远端终端与中继终端之间的PC5连接断开,断开的原因可能是远端终端主动触发,也可以是中继终端主动触发PC5连接释放,也可以是因为无线质量变差或者远端终端离开中继终端的覆盖范围后没有信令触发的隐式PC5连接断开。中继终端判断与远端终端的PC5连接断开后继续保持远端终端的上下文信息,以及继续保持步骤1102中为远端终端传输数据建立的PDU会话。
在此之后,核心网如果收到发送给远端终端的下行数据或者下行数据通知消息,也还是会继续发送到中继终端。例如,如果中继终端在连接态,则通过步骤1102建立的PDU会话发送给中继终端;如果中继终端在空闲态,则先通过寻呼的方式,使中继终端响应寻呼并发起相应流程转化为连接态,然后网络将发送给远端终端的下行数据或者下行数据通知消息通过步骤1102建立的PDU会话发送给中继终端。
步骤1107.中继终端根据收到的发送给远端终端的下行数据或者下行数据通知消息,例如中继终端可以根据收到的下行数据的数据包头的IP地址端口号或者IP前缀等信息判断数据包是发送给哪个远端终端的,中继终端根据自身保存的远端终端的上下文,确定出该远端终端的近距离通信终端标识。
步骤1108.中继终端向远端终端发起PC5连接的建立,例如发送目标为远端终端的layer-2地址的直接通信建立请求,可选的,其中还可以包括远端终端的应用层标识和或应用信息和或步骤3中分配给远端终端的IP地址信息,这些信息可以是在直接通信建立请求消息中发送给远端终端,也可以是通过单独的信令发送给远端终端的。
可选地,在中继终端向远端终端发起PC5连接的建立之前,中继终端还可以广播发现请求消息,其中携带远端终端的应用层标识和或应用信息,进行远端终端的发现。远端终端监听到与自己匹配的发现请求消息后,向中继终端回应自己的近距离通信终端标识。
在中继终端与远端终端之间的PC5连接重新建立之后,中继终端将下行数据或者下行数据通知消息发送给远端终端。
步骤1109.在远端终端与中继终端之间的PC5连接断开之后,中继终端可以判断远端终端是否不再使用中继终端接入网络。判断的方法包括并不限于一下举例:例如中继终端上设置一个定时器,PC5连接断开后启动或者重启定时器,定时器超时则认为远端终端不再使用该中继终端接入网络。又例如,中继终端定期进行PC5接口对远端终端的广播发现请求,根据是否能收到回应消息判断远端终端是否不再使用该中继终端接入网络。
步骤1110.中继终端判断远端终端不再使用该中继终端接入网络之后,删除自身保存的远端终端上下文信息。
步骤1111.中继终端判断远端终端不再使用该中继终端接入网络之后,通知核心网远端终端的离开,以释放步骤1102中为远端终端传输数据建立的PDU会话。
实施例2
实施例2与实施例1不同之处在于,中继终端收到发送给远端终端的下行数据或者下行数据通知消息之后,中继终端广播通知消息,其中包括远端终端应用层标识和/或应用信息和/或发起PC5连接的指示,通知远端终端向中继终端发起PC5连接的建立。具体地,如图6所示,基于如下步骤1201至步骤1212实现本实施例技术方案。另外,本实施例中的通知消息同上述通知信息。
步骤1201-1207如同上述实施例1步骤1101-1107。
步骤1208.中继终端广播通知消息,其中包括远端终端应用层标识和/或应用信息和/或发起PC5连接的指示。可选地,该通知消息还包括消息关联标识。该通知消息用于通知远端终端向中继终端发起PC5连接的建立。
步骤1209.远端终端向中继终端发起PC5连接的建立,即远端终端向中继终端发送直接通信建立请求,其中携带广播通知消息中包括的该远端终端的应用层标识和/或该远端终端的近距离通信终端标识和/或该应用信息,或者,携带步骤1208中收到的消息关联标识,该消息关联标识用于关联该通知信息与该直接通信建立请求。中继终端根据收到的远端终端的标识和/或应用信息确定继续为这个远端终端分配步骤1203中分配给远端终端的IP地址信息,或者,中继终端根据收到的消息关联标识可以确定继续为这个远端终端分配步骤1203中分配给远端终端的IP地址信息。
在中继终端与远端终端之间的PC5连接重新建立之后,中继终端将下行数据或者下行数据通知消息发送给远端终端。
步骤1210-1212如同上述实施例1步骤1109-1111。
实施例3
实施例3与实施例1不同之处在于,远端终端在与中继终端建立PC5连接之后保存了自身的上下 文信息,其中包括该远端终端的应用层标识和/或该远端终端的近距离通信终端标识。可选地,该上下文信息还包括应用信息(应用标识或者应用类型等),分配给远端终端的IP地址信息。可选地,该远端终端的近距离通信终端标识可以包括但不限于以下中的至少一种:网络层标识,链路层标识,近距离通信层2(layer-2)地址。在PC5连接断开之后,远端终端继续保存自身的上下文信息。在收到中继终端发起PC5连接的建立后,直接使用自身保存的IP地址。当远端终端需要离开中继终端时,可以主动向中继终端发送离开通知。具体地,如图7所示,基于如下步骤1301至步骤1312实现本实施例技术方案。
步骤1301-1306如同上述实施例1步骤1101-1106。
步骤1307.远端终端在PC5连接断开之后继续保存自身的上下文信息,其中包括该远端终端的应用层标识和/或该远端终端的近距离通信终端标识。可选地,该上下文信息还包括应用信息(应用标识或者应用类型等),分配给远端终端的IP地址信息。
步骤1308如上述同实施例1中的步骤1107。
步骤1309如上述同实施例1中的步骤1108,但是可以不包括IP地址信息。
步骤1310.远端终端在确定不再需要从中继终端接入网络时,向中继终端发送不再通过中继终端接入网络指示。
步骤1311-1312如同上述实施例1中的步骤1110-1111。
实施例4
实施例4与实施例3不同之处在于,中继终端收到发送给远端终端的下行数据或者下行数据通知消息之后,中继终端广播通知消息,其中包括远端终端应用层标识和/或应用信息和/或发起PC5连接的指示,通知远端终端向中继终端发起PC5连接的建立。具体地,如图8所示,基于如下步骤1401至步骤1413实现本实施例技术方案。
步骤1401-1408如同上述实施例3中的步骤1301-1308;步骤1409-1410如同上述实施例2中的步骤1208-1209;步骤1411-1413如同上述实施例3中的步骤1310-1312。
