一种网络接入方法及终端
本申请要求于2020年05月14日提交中国国家知识产权局、申请号为202010405578.0、申请名称为“一种网络接入方法及终端”,以及于2020年06月15日提交中国国家知识产权局、申请号为202010544883.8、申请名称为“一种网络接入方法及终端”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
本说明书涉及移动通信技术领域,具体涉及一种网络接入方法及终端。
背景技术
第五代(5th generation,5G)网络架构可以分为非独立架构(non stand-alone,NSA)和独立架构(stand-alone,SA)两种组网方式。NSA组网方式是在长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)的基础上增加5G载波,该5G载波可以用于承载用户面数据。
对于NSA组网方式,第三代合作伙伴计划(third generation partnership project,3GPP)版本(release,R)15定义了长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)和新空口(new radio,NR)的双连接(dual connectivity,DC)框架,其中,包括演进型的统一陆地无线接入网络(evolved universal terrestrial radio access network,E-UTRAN)-NR双连接(E-UTRA-NR dual connectivity,EN-DC)架构。在5G网络部署的早期,多数运营商选用EN-DC架构作为NSA的组网方式。EN-DC架构不用新增第五代(5th generation,5G)核心网,只需要新增5G基站,跟现有的第四代(4th generation,4G)基站协同,为终端提供5G+4G的联合接入,当终端处于EN-DC状态时,同时接入4G小区和5G小区,其中,4G小区可以称为主小区组(master cell group,MCG),5G小区可以称为辅小区组(secondary cell group,SCG)。
目前,有些终端可以支持双用户识别模块(subscriber identification module,SIM)卡,从而可以实现来自不同网络的业务,即语音、彩信、短信和数据等业务。双SIM卡中的一个SIM卡可以作为主卡,另一个SIM卡可以作为副卡。其中,主卡是指默认数据业务卡,即终端的数据业务默认通过主卡对应的网络进行传输。当主卡处于EN-DC状态时,受限于终端的实现方案,副卡在执行相关业务(例如语音业务、彩信业务等)时,主卡会释放SCG。在主卡释放SCG后,需要网络侧发起SCG添加流程,才能使主卡重新接入5G小区。若网络侧长时间不发起SCG添加流程,主卡可能长时间接入不到5G小区,从而影响用户的网络体验。
发明内容

也就是说,在该实现方式中,在确定终端没有运行时延敏感应用或终端没有执行时延敏感业务的情况下,才主动断开终端和主接入网设备之间的连接,以避免终端和主接入网设备之间连接的断开对时延敏感应用或时延敏感业务的影响。
在一种可能的实现方式中,在终端主动断开终端和主接入网设备之间的RRC连接,并向主接入网设备发送RRC连接重建立请求之后,该方法还包括:当终端通过主卡连接到辅接入网设备失败时,终端将终端通过主卡当前驻留的小区列入第一名单;其中,当终端通过主卡 卡驻留在第一名单中的小区时,终端不再向主接入网设备发送RRC连接重建立请求。
也就是说,在该实现方式中,可以将终端通过主卡尝试接入辅接入网设备失败的小区列入黑名单,当终端通过主卡驻留在黑名单中的小区时,终端不再向主接入网设备发送RRC连接重建立请求,以避免接入辅接入网设备反复失败导致的RRC连接重建立反复发起。
在一种可能的实现方式中,该方法还包括:当终端发生设备重启时,或当终端通过主卡接入的无线网络的跟踪区变化时,终端清空第一名单。
在一种可能的实现方式中,主接入网设备为4G接入网设备,辅接入网设备为5G接入网设备。
也就是说,在该实现方式中,在终端的主卡接入的5G小区,因副卡进行业务而被释放的情况下,在副卡进行的业务结束时或之后,终端可以主动释放主卡接入的4G小区,并通过主卡向4G接入网设备发送连接重建立请求,从而可以触发主接入网设备尽快协助终端通过主卡接入5G小区,改善用户通信体验。

在对本申请实施例提供的技术方案进行介绍之前,首先对本申请实施例提供的方案所涉及的技术背景和应用架构进行说明。
第五代网络架构可以分为NSA和独立架构SA两种组网方式。在5G移动通信系统的部署早期,多数运营商选用EN-DC架构作为NSA的组网方式。EN-DC架构为3GPP定义的一种双连接架构,在EN-DC架构下,终端可以连接到4G的接入网设备,并在4G接入网设备的协助下连接到5G的接入网设备,由此实现同时接入4G小区和5G小区,使得用户具有较佳的通信体验。
当前越来越多的手机支持同时插入两张SIM卡,例如,一张SIM卡用于私人业务,另一张SIM卡用于工作;或者,一张SIM卡用于数据业务,另一张SIM卡用于语音业务。两张SIM卡中的一个SIM卡可以作为主卡,另一个SIM卡可以作为副卡。其中,主卡是指默认数据业务卡,即终端的数据业务默认通过主卡对应的网络进行传输。当主卡支持EN-DC时,主卡可以同时接入4G小区和5G小区。受限于手机的实现方案,副卡在执行相关业务(例如语音业务、彩信业务等)时,主卡会释放5G小区。
目前,网络侧通过下发无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)连接重配(connection reconfiguration)请求或者事件B1(event B1)测量控制消息来触发终端添加SCG的流程。在双卡场景下,在副卡业务结束后,网络侧可能长时间不下发RRC连接重配请求或者事件B1测量控制消息,使得主卡长时间回不到5G网络,使得用户不能充分体验5G网络更稳定、更高速、更可靠的网络性能,导致用户通信体验较差。
为此,本申请实施例提供了一种网络接入方法,在副卡的业务导致主卡释放SCG的情况下,当副卡的业务结束时,主卡可以主动向网络侧发送RRC连接重建立请求,以重新建立主卡和网络侧间的RRC连接,由此,触发网络侧向主卡下发RRC连接重配请求,以为主卡添加SCG,使得主卡可以尽快回到5G网络,改善用户通信体验。

为了方便描述,本申请实施例可以将SIM卡以及其演进都统称为SIM卡。在一个例子中,SIM卡可以是全球移动通信系统(global system for mobile communications,GSM)数字移动电话用户的身份识别卡。在一个例子中,SIM卡也可以是用于存储用户的身份识别码和密钥,并支持GSM系统对用户的鉴权。在一个例子中,SIM卡也可以是全球用户识别卡(universal  subscriber identity module,USIM),也可以称为升级SIM卡。等等,此处不再一一列举。
SIM卡可以理解为终端100接入网络的钥匙。可以理解,SIM卡具有运营商签约用户的签约信息或者说网络使用权限,其代表用户身份。终端100可凭借SIM卡代表的用户身份接入到移动网络。示例性的,SIM卡代表的用户身份可以为用户标识(如国际移动用户标识(international mobile subscriber identity,IMSI)或临时移动用户标识(temporary mobile subscriber identity,TMSI)等)。在本申请实施例中,可以将SIM卡A1对应的用户身份称为用户身份A12,SIM卡A2对应的用户身份称为用户身份A22。终端100使用SIM卡(例如SIM卡A1或SIM卡A2)接入网络,也可以称为终端100通过用户身份(用户身份A12或用户身份A22)接入网络。终端100通过用户身份接入网络是指终端凭借该用户身份对应的签约信息或网络使用权限接入网络。
从网络侧的角度来看,SIM卡(例如SIM卡A1和SIM卡A2)在逻辑上对应网络侧服务的通信实体,例如4G或5G移动通信系统中的用户设备(user equment,UE)。该通信实体通过该SIM卡对应的用户身份和网络侧进行通信。SIM卡A1和SIM卡A2可以被网络侧识别或看作两个不同的通信实体,即使SIM卡A1和SIM卡A2安装在同一个物理实体(即终端100)中。换言之,终端100通过不同用户身份接入网络时,网络侧可以将终端100识别为或看做不同的通信实体。终端100配置有SIM卡A1和SIM卡A2时,终端100可以包括分别对应于SIM卡A1和SIM卡A2的两个通信实体。其中,可以将对应于SIM卡A1(用户身份A12)的通信实体称为通信实体A13,可以将对应于SIM卡A2(用户身份A22)的通信实体称为通信实体A23。通信实体A13为终端100中用于通过用户身份A12进行业务的实体。终端100通过用户身份A12和网络侧进行通信,可以称为通信实体A13和网络侧进行通信。通信实体A23为终端100中用于通过用户身份A22进行业务的实体。终端100通过用户身份A22和网络侧进行通信,可以称为通信实体A23和网络侧进行通信。在一些实施例中,通信实体A13和通信实体A23可以为终端100调制解调器中的功能实体或逻辑实体。
在一些实施例中,终端100可以通过用户身份A12和用户身份A22分别连接不同的接入网设备。换言之,通信实体A13和通信实体A23可以分别连接不同的接入网设备。例如,如图1所示,通信实体A13连接接入网设备210,通信实体A23连接到接入网设备300。
在一些实施例中,终端100可以通过用户身份A12和用户身份A22连接同一接入网设备,换言之,通信实体A13和通信实体A23可以连接同一接入网设备。例如通信实体A13和通信实体A23连接接入网设备210(未示出)。
在本申请实施例可以设定SIM卡A1为主卡。示例性的,终端100可以响应于用户的操作,确定SIM卡A1为主卡。在一个例子中,参阅图3,终端100可以显示双卡管理界面,并响应于用户起始的针对SIM卡A1对应的功能区的操作,将SIM卡A1设置为主卡。当SIM卡A1被设置为主卡时,SIM卡A2可以称为副卡,通信实体A13可以称为主卡modem,通信实体A23可以称为副卡modem。
接下来,在不同实施例中,对本申请实施例提供的网络接入方法进行示例说明。
图4A示出了一些实施例提供的网络接入方法的流程图。
如图4A所示,副卡业务开始时,可以触发主卡(或者说主卡modem)由5G回到LTE。也就是说,在副卡业务开始之前,主卡可以同时接入5G小区和LTE小区。当副卡业务开始时,主卡可以释放掉5G小区,保持接入LTE小区。具体可以参考下文对图4C中步骤400-步骤406的介绍,在此不再赘述。
当副卡业务结束时或之后,主卡可以主动触发回到5G的流程。也就是说,当副卡业务 结束时或之后,主卡可以主动触发网络侧为主卡添加5G小区,从而可以尽快接入到5G小区,改善用户的通信体验。具体可以参考下文对图4C中步骤407-步骤411的介绍,在此不再赘述。
在本申请实施例提供的网络接入方法可以在副卡业务结束时或之后,可以主动触发主卡回到5G的流程,从而使得主卡可以尽快回到5G,改善用户在双卡场景下的通信体验。
图4B示出了另一些实施例提供的网络接入方法的流程图。
副卡业务导致主卡由NSA回到LTE。也就是说,当副卡业务开始时,主卡可以释放掉5G小区,保持接入LTE小区。
当副卡业务结束时或之后,终端可以判断主卡当前LTE小区是否支持EN-DC,并且在时间T内没有添加SCG。其中,主卡时间T内没有添加SCG是指时间T内网络侧有没有触发为主卡添加SCG的流程。
也就是说,终端可以判断主卡当前驻留的LTE小区是否支持EN-DC。具体可以参考下文对图4C中步骤410a的介绍。
若主卡当前驻留的LTE小区不支持EN-DC,终端不再执行后续步骤。
若主卡当前驻留的LTE小区支持EN-DC,终端可以判断在副卡业务结束时开始起算的时间段T内,网络侧有没有触发为主卡添加SCG的流程。具体可以参考下文对图4C中步骤410b的介绍。
若在时间段T内,网络侧有没有触发为主卡添加SCG的流程,终端可以判断T1时间内副卡业务次数是否超过n次。具体可以参考下文对图4C中步骤410c的介绍,在此不再赘述。
若T1时间内副卡业务次数超过n次,终端不再执行后续步骤。
若T1时间内副卡业务次数没有超过n次,终端可以判断时延敏感类白名单应用是否运行中。具体可以参考下文对图4C中步骤410d的介绍,在此不再赘述。
若延敏感类白名单应用在运行中,终端不再执行后续步骤。
若延敏感类白名单应用不在运行中,终端可以主动触发主卡的LTE发起重建立。具体可以参考下文对图4C中步骤411-步骤414的介绍,在此不再赘述。
终端可以判断主卡重建立后是否成功添加SCG。具体可以参考下文对图4C中步骤415的介绍,在此不再赘述。
若没有成功添加SCG,终端将主卡当前小区(即主卡当前驻留的小区)例如临时性黑名单,不再发起快速回5G重建立。具体可以参考上文对图4C中步骤416的介绍,在此不再赘述。
在本申请实施例提供的网络接入方法可以在副卡业务结束时或之后,可以主动触发主卡回到5G的流程,从而使得主卡可以尽快回到5G,改善用户在双卡场景下的通信体验。
接下来,结合图4C,以通信实体A13处于以接入网设备210为主节点的EN-DC状态,通信实体A23连接到接入网设备300,且接入网设备300为4G基站为例,对本申请实施例中的方案进行说明。
参阅图4C,在通信实体A13处于以接入网设备210为主节点的EN-DC状态下,通信实体A13和接入网设备210之间具有4G的RRC连接,通信实体13和接入网设备220之间具有5G的RRC连接。通信实体23和接入网设备200之间具有4G的RRC连接之间具有4G的RRC连接。由上所述,通信实体A13为主卡modem。即终端100的数据业务(例如终端100运行的第三方应用的数据业务)默认通过通信实体13和网络侧之间的链路进行传输。当通信实体A13处于EN-DC状态下时,用户可以体验5G的性能。示例性的,参阅图5A,通 信实体A13处于EN-DC状态,终端100的状态栏可以显示对应于SIM卡A1的4G和5G双网络图标501。终端100可以流畅地在线播放高清视频。
参阅图4C,通信实体A23可以执行步骤400,发起业务B1。
以业务B1为需要通过用户身份A22进行语音业务为例。示例性的,可以参阅图5B,终端100可以响应用户的操作,退出视频播放界面,显示拨号界面。用户可以在拨号界面输入想要拨打的电话号码,然后选择SIM卡A2进行拨打。响应于用户起始的拨打电话的操作,通信实体A23可以发起语音业务(业务B1)。
继续参阅图4C,当通信实体A23发起业务B1时,还可以执行步骤401,向仲裁实体传递占用发信机请求,占用发信机请求包括业务B1的标识。仲裁实体可以响应占用发信机请求,执行步骤402a,确定通信实体A23占用发信机。从而使得通信实体A23可以进行业务B1。例如,业务B1为语音业务时,通信实体A23可以进行拨号以及电话接通后的通话。
出于节省功耗和成本,通常,终端100配置有一套发信机。通信实体A13和通信实体A23通过时分复用(time division multiplexing,TDM)的方式轮流占用发信机。终端100还可以包括仲裁实体。示例性的,仲裁实体可以为终端100的调制解调器中的功能实体或逻辑实体。仲裁实体可以裁决通信实体A13和通信实体A23中的哪一个来占用发信机。在SIM卡A1为主卡的情况下,仲裁实体裁决发信机默认由通信实体A13占用。当终端100需要进行业务B1时,通信实体A13向仲裁实体申请占用发信机器。
仲裁实体还可以执行步骤402b,确定业务B1为预设的至少一种业务中的一种。该至少一种业务可以包括进行时间较长或或业务数据量较大的业务,例如语音业务、彩信业务。而对于短信业务,其数据量较小,且发送或接收短信的时间较短,因此,短信业务不属于该至少一种业务中的业务。当通过用户身份A22进行的业务为该至少一种业务中的业务时,需要终端100从用户身份A13下的EN-DC状态回落到用户身份A12下的LTE状态。换言之,需要终端100断开通信实体A13和接入网设备220之间的5G的RRC连接,而仅保持通信实体A13和接入网设备210之间的4G的RRC连接。具体而言,仲裁实体通过步骤402b,确定业务B1为该至少一种业务中的一种时,仲裁实体可以执行步骤403,向通信实体A13发送5G链路释放通知。通信实体A13可以响应5G链路释放通知,执行步骤404,向接入网设备210发送SCG失败(SCG fail)消息。接入网设备210可以响应SCG失败消息,执行步骤405,向通信实体A13发送5G的RRC连接释放(RRC connection release)消息。通信实体A13可以响应5G的RRC连接释放消息,执行步骤406,释放5G的RRC连接。
通过上文描述可知,当通信实体A23进行业务B1,且业务B1为预设的至少一种业务中的一种时,通信实体A13和接入网设备220之间的5G的RRC连接被释放掉,即通信实体A13的辅小区被释放掉。通信实体A13仅保持了其和接入网设备210之间的4G的RRC连接。如图5C和图5D所示,可以设定业务B1为语音业务,在语音业务拨号期间以及电话接通后的通话期间,终端100的状态栏可以显示对应于SIM卡A1的4G网络图标502。
继续参阅图4C,通信实体A23可以执行步骤407,结束业务B1。示例性的,参阅图5D,以业务B1为语音业务为例。通信实体A23可以响应于用户起始的挂断操作,结束业务B1。
当通信实体A23结束业务B1时,还可以执行步骤408,向仲裁实体传递业务B1结束通知。仲裁实体可以响应业务B1结束通知,执行步骤409a,恢复通信实体A13占用发信机。换言之,当业务B1结束时,发信机再次由通信实体A13占用。
在业务B1执行期间以及业务B1结束时,通信实体A13可以保持其和接入网设备210之间的连接。为了使通信实体A13可以尽快连接到接入网设备220,当业务B1结束时,通信 实体A13可以主动断开其和接入网设备210之间的连接,并发起RRC连接重建立,以此来触发网络侧向通信实体A13下发RRC连接重配请求,从而可以快速为通信实体A13添加SCG。接下来,进行具体说明。
在一些实施例中,当仲裁实体接收到业务B1结束通知时,仲裁实体可以向通信实体A13传递用于表示业务B1结束的消息或用于指示通信实体A13发送RRC连接重建立请求的消息,以便通信实体A13向接入网设备210发送RRC连接重建立请求。
在一个说明性示例中,如图4C所示,当仲裁实体接收到业务B1结束通知时,可以执行步骤409b,向通信实体A13传递业务B1结束通知。通信实体A13在接收到业务B1结束通知之后,可以执行步骤411、412等后续步骤。
在一个说明性示例中,当仲裁实体接收到业务B1结束通知时,仲裁实体可以向通信实体A13传递RRC连接重建立请求发送指令。通信实体A13在接收到RRC连接重建立请求发送指令之后,可以执行步骤411、412等后续步骤。
在一些实施例中,当通信实体A23检测到业务B1的结束指示时,可以直接向通信实体A13传递用于表示业务B1结束的消息或用于指示通信实体A13发送RRC连接重建立请求的消息,以便通信实体A13向接入网设备210发送RRC连接重建立请求。在一个例子中,用于表示业务B1结束的消息可以为业务B1结束通知。在一个例子中,用于指示通信实体A13发送RRC连接重建立请求的消息可以为RRC连接重建立请求发送指令。
可以理解,在发送RRC连接重建立请求之前,需要先释放已建立的RRC连接。因此,当通信实体A13接收到用于表示业务B1结束的消息或用于指示通信实体A13发送RRC连接重建立请求的消息时或之后,通信实体A13可以先执行步骤411,主动释放通信实体A13和接入网设备210之间的4G的RRC连接。可以理解,关于RRC连接的释放,通常是在接收到网络侧下发的RRC连接释放消息时,响应于该RRC连接释放消息,释放RRC连接。而在步骤411中,通信实体A13可以在网络侧不下发RRC连接释放消息的情况下,主动释放RRC连接。
通信实体13主动释放RRC连接后,可以执行步骤412,向接入网设备210发送RRC连接重建立请求。接入网设备210接收到RRC连接重建立请求,可以响应RRC连接重建立请求,执行步骤413,向通信实体A13发送RRC连接重建立消息。通信实体A13在接收到RRC连接重建立消息后,可以进行无线资源配置、设置RRC连接重建立完成消息的内容等。然后,可执行步骤414,向接入网设备210发送RRC连接重建立完成消息。由此,通信实体A13通过RRC连接重建立程序重新接入到接入网设备210提供的小区,可以触发接入网设备210为通信实体A13添加SCG。添加SCG的过程将在下文结合图7进行介绍,在此不再赘述。
在一些实施例中,在执行步骤411之前,通信实体A13可以先执行步骤410a,判断通信实体A13当前驻留的主小区是否支持EN-DC。示例性的,可以理解,由于5G频谱大多处于高频段,高频段网络信号覆盖范围较小。也就是说,接入网设备220提供的5G信号的覆盖范围可能小于接入网设备210提供的4G信号的覆盖范围,所以接入网设备210提供的小区中一个或多个小区可能因为没有5G信号覆盖而不支持EN-DC。接入网设备210提供的小区中一个或多个小区也可以因为网络配置等原因而不支持EN-DC。换言之,接入网设备210提供的所有小区并非都支持EN-DC。
另外,在通信实体A23执行业务B1期间,终端100发生了位移或者通信实体A13驻留的4G小区的信号质量发送了变化,使得通信实体A13切换到了其他4G小区中。也就是说,在通信实体A23执行业务B1开始时和在通信实体A23执行的业务B1结束时,通信实体A13 驻留的4G小区可能不同。通过上段所述可知,在通信实体A23执行的业务B1结束时,通信实体A13驻留的4G小区有可能不支持EN-DC。因此,在执行步骤411之前,通信实体A13可以先判断其当前驻留的4G小区是否支持EN-DC。
在一个说明性示例中,通信实体A13可以根据其小区接入历史记录,确定当前驻留的4G小区是否支持EN-DC。历史上,每当通信实体A13接入到一个4G小区时,可以记录附着该4G小区时,是否接收到该4G小区所属的接入网设备下发的RRC连接重配请求。若接收到RRC连接重配请求,则说明该4G小区支持EN-DC。若没有接收到RRC连接重配请求,则说明该4G小区不支持EN-DC。由此,通信实体A13可以确定通信实体A13当前驻留的小区是否支持EN-DC。
示例性的,当通信实体A13当前驻留的小区支持EN-DC时,通信实体A13可以执行步骤411以及后续步骤。
在一些实施例中,在执行步骤411之前,通信实体A13执行步骤410b,判断当定时器C1超时时,通信实体A13是否接收到网络侧下发的SCG添加触发消息。该SCG添加触发消息具体可以为B1事件的测量控制消息或者RRC连接重配请求。可以理解,在业务B1结束时,或结束后的较低时间内,网络侧也有可能主动向通信实体A13下发B1事件的测量控制消息或者RRC连接重配请求,以触发为通信实体A13添加SCG的流程。为了避免和网络侧主动下发的B1事件的测量控制消息或者RRC连接重配请求,通信实体A13在执行步骤411之前,执行步骤410b。
在一个说明性示例中,定时器C1的时长可以通过主卡返回5G网络时长大数据确定。主卡返回5G时长可以为双卡场景下,副卡业务(该业务导致主卡释放SCG)结束时刻和主卡重新接入到5G网络的时刻之间的时长。可以统计或调研现有终端的主卡返回5G时长,得到主卡返回5G网络时长大数据。可以计算主卡返回5G时长大数据中各时长的分布。可以根据主卡返回5G时长大数据中各时长的分布确定定时器C1的时长。例如,可以将概率最大的时长设定为定时器C1的时长。
在一个说明性示例中,定时器C1的时长可以通过经验或实验预设,例如可以为2s的时长。
示例性的,当若在定时器C1计时期间,通信实体A13没有接收到B1事件的测量控制消息或者RRC连接重配请求,通信实体A13可以执行步骤411以及后续步骤。
在一些实施例中,在执行步骤411之前,通信实体A13可以先执行410c,判断时间段T1内,通信模块A23进行至少一种业务中的业务的总次数是否超过n次。时间段T1可以是指当通信实体A13接收到用于表示业务B1结束的消息或用于指示通信实体A13发送RRC连接重建立请求的消息时,向前起算的时间段。例如,时间段T1的时间长度为60秒,则时间段T1是指通信实体A13接收到用于表示业务B1结束的消息或用于指示通信实体A13发送RRC连接重建立请求的消息的时刻为终点,向前起算的60秒。在其他例子中,时间段T1的时间长度可以为120秒,或者为180秒,等等。n为预设值,例如可以为3次,也可以4次,等等。
步骤410c中的,进行至少一种业务中的业务的总次数是指将进行的至少一种业务中的业务进行累加。例如该至少一个业务包括语音业务、彩信业务。进行了1次语音业务和进行了2次彩信业务,则进行至少一种业务中的业务的总次数为3(1+2)。
可以理解,按照本申请实施例提供的网络接入方法的逻辑,每当通信实体A23进行的至少一种业务中的业务结束时或之后,通信实体A13触发RRC连接重建立。若短时间内,通 信实体A23进行的至少一种业务中的业务的次数较多,则使得RRC连接重建立的频繁发生,可导致网络侧统计数据异常。为了避免这种现象发生。在通信实体A13在执行步骤411之前,先执行步骤410c。若在短时间内,通信实体A23进行的至少一种业务中的业务的总次数没有过多(没有超过n次,n为自然数),可触发RRC连接重建立。示例性的,此处的n可以为3,也可以为4,等等。在具体实现时,可以根据经验或实验预设n的大小。
在一些实施例中,在执行步骤411之前,通信实体A13可以先执行410d,判断终端100当前是否运行时延敏感应用。由于SIM卡A1为默认数据业务卡,终端100运行的应用的业务数据通过通信实体A13和网络侧之间的连接进行传输。为了触发RRC连接重建立,通信实体A13需要断开其和网络侧的连接,即执行步骤411。若终端100当前正在运行时延敏感应用,则通信实体A13需要断开其和网络侧的连接,会影响用户对该应用的操作体验。因此,在执行步骤411之前,通信实体A13可以先执行410d。
在一些实施例中,对时延敏感的应用可以为时延敏感类应用白名单中的应用。时延敏感类应用白名单可以包括多个应用的应用标识。应用标识可以为应用的包名(package name)。
在一些实施例中,时延敏感类应用白名单可以作为配置文件,在生产终端100时,预置到终端100中。时延敏感类应用白名单中的应用可以包括交互游戏(例如多人在线战术竞技(multiplayer online battle arena,MOBA))应用、电话应用等。
在一个说明性示例中,当终端100出厂后,开发人员可以更新时延敏感类应用白名单中的应用,例如将新出现的交互应用添加到延敏感类应用白名单中。更新后时延敏感类应用白名单可以通过服务器推送方式发送给终端100。
在一些实施例中,用户可以往时延敏感类应用白名单中添加应用。终端100可以提供管理延敏感类应用白名单的操作入口以及交互界面,以便用户往时延敏感类应用白名单中添加应用。
在该实施例的一个说明性示例中,终端100可以响应于用户起始的针对“设置”功能选项的操作,显示管理时延敏感类应用白名单的操作入口。终端100可以响应于针对该操作入口的操作,显示如图6A所示的界面。其中,应用D1和应用D2为安装在终端100上,且已添加到时延敏感类应用白名单中的应用。应用D3和应用D4等为安装在终端100上,但未添加到时延敏感类应用白名单中的应用。
另外,如图6A所示,对于已添加到时延敏感类应用白名单中的应用,终端100可以提供“删除”选项,以便用户可以从时延敏感类应用白名单中删除相关应用。
如图6A所示,对于未添加到时延敏感类应用白名单中的应用,终端100可以提供“添加”功能选项,以便用户可以往时延敏感类应用白名单中添加相关应用。例如,参阅图6A和图6B,终端100可以响应于针对应用D3对应的“添加”功能选项上的操作,将应用D3添加到时延敏感类应用白名单中。
通信实体A13在执行步骤410d时,可以判断终端100前台运行应用是否为应用白名单中的应用,例如,可以获取前台运行应用的包名,并将该包名在应用白名单中进行匹配或搜索,若匹配到或搜索到与该包名一致的包名,则确定前台运行应用为应用白名单中的应用。当前台运行应用为应用白名单中的应用时,则确定终端100正在运行时延敏感应用。当前台运行应用不为应用白名单中的应用时,则确定终端100没有运行时延敏感应用。
示例性的,当终端100没有运行时延敏感应用时,可以执行步骤411及其后续步骤。
在一些实施例中,在执行步骤411之前,通信实体A13可以先判断终端100当前是否执行时延敏感业务。时延敏感业务可以为语音业务、遥测业务、电话会议业务或交互游戏业务 等。若当终端100正在执行时延敏感业务时,通信实体A13为了发起RRC连接重建立,而断开其和网络侧的连接,会影响用户的业务体验。为了避免或减少对用户业务体验的影响,在终端100没有执行时延敏感业务的前提下,通信实体A13可以主动断开其和网络侧的连接,进而发起RRC连接重建立。
在该实施例的一个说明性示例中,终端100在通过通信实体A13发送数据包时,无线链路控制(radio link control,RLC)层可以识别该数据包所属的业务类型,由此,可以确定该数据包是否属于时延敏感业务(例如语音业务、遥测业务、电话会议业务或交互游戏业务)的数据。若该数据包属于时延敏感业务,则说明终端100正在执行时延敏感业务。
示例性的,当终端100没有执行时延敏感业务时,可以执行步骤411及其后续步骤。
在一些实施例中,当在步骤410a中,确定通信实体A13当前驻留的主小区支持EN-DC时,通信实体A13还可以执行步骤410b。当在步骤410b,确定当定时器C1超时,通信实体A13没有接收到B1事件的测量控制消息或者RRC连接重配请求时,通信实体A13还可以执行步骤410c。当在步骤410c,确定时间段T1内,通信实体A23进行至少一种业务中的业务的总次数不超过n次时,通信实体A13还可以执行步骤410d。当在步骤410d,确定终端100没有运行时延敏感应用时,通信实体A13执行步骤411及后续步骤。
接下来,结合图7,介绍网络侧为通信实体A13添加SCG的流程。
如图7所示,通过步骤701,通信实体A13接入网设备210之间可以建立RRC连接。具体而言,步骤701包括图4C中的步骤412、步骤413、步骤414。
在一些实施例中,接入网设备210在通信实体A13连接到接入网设备210时,可以基于测量为终端100添加辅小区。具体如下。
接入网设备210可以执行步骤702,向通信实体A13发送事件B1的测量控制消息。通信实体A13可以响应于事件B1的测量控制消息,搜索接入网设备220提供的小区。当接入网设备220提供的小区的信号质量高于门限值时,通信实体A13可以执行步骤703,向接入网设备210发送事件B1的测量报告。事件B1的测量报告用于向接入网设备210报告通信实体A13测量得到的异系统邻区的信号质量,即向接入网设备210报告通信实体A13测量得到的接入网设备220提供的小区的信号质量。在一个例子中,小区的信号质量可以通过小区的参考信号接收功率(reference signal receiving power,RSRP)来表征。在一个例子中,小区的信号质量可以通过小区的参考信号接收质量(reference signal received quality,RSRQ)来表征。在一个例子中,小区的信号质量可以通过小区的信号与干扰加噪声比(signal to interference plus noise ratio,SINR)来表征。在一个例子中,小区的信号质量可以通过小区的接收的信号强度指示(received signal strength indication,RSSI)来表征。在一个例子中,小区的信号质量可以通过小区的RSRP、RSRQ、SINR、RSSI中的两项或更多项联合表征。
接入网设备210可以执行步骤704,向接入网设备220发送SgNB添加请求(addition request)。SgNB是指用于辅节点的gNB。在EN-DC架构下,接入网设备210可以为eNB,用作主节点,可以称为MeNB(master eNB)。接入网设备220可以为gNB,用作辅节点,可以称为SgNB(secondary gNB)。
接入网设备220可以执行步骤705,向接入网设备210发送SgNB添加请求确认(addition request acknowledge)消息。
接入网设备210可以执行步骤706,向通信实体A13发送无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)连接重配(connection reconfiguration)请求。
通信实体A13可以执行步骤707,向接入网设备210发送RRC连接重配完成(connection  reconfiguration complete)消息。
接入网设备210可以执行步骤708,向接入网设备220发送SgNB重配完成(reconfiguration complete)消息。
终端100和接入网设备220之间可以通过步骤709,进行随机接入程序。随机接入程序可以参考上文介绍,在此不再赘述。
通过步骤709,通信实体A13可以连接到接入网设备220。换言之,通过步骤709,建立了通信实体A13和接入网设备220之间的RRC连接。通过上述步骤,接入网设备210为通信实体A13添加了辅小区(SCG)。在接入网设备210为eNB,接入网设备220为gNB的请情况下,在步骤709之后,通信实体A13进入了EN-DC状态,即终端100通过用户身份A12进入EN-DC状态。
继续参阅图7,接入网设备210可以执行步骤710,向接入网设备220发送SgNB状态转移(status transfer)。核心网230中的服务网关(service gateway,S-GW)、接入网设备210和接入网设备220之间可以在步骤711中,进行数据传送(data forwarding)。
接入网设备210、接入网设备220和核心网230可以进行路径更新程序(path update procedure)。路径更新程序具体可以包括如下步骤。
步骤712,接入网设备220可以向核心网230中的移动性管理实体(mobility management entity,MME)发送演进的无线接入承载(evolved radio access bearer,E-RAB)修改指示(modification indication);
步骤713,MME向S-GW发送承载修改(bearer modication)请求;
步骤714,服务网关向接入网设备210发送向结束标记包(end marker packet),接入网设备再向接入网设备220发送结束标记包;
步骤715,MME向接入网设备210发送E-RAB修改确认(modification confirm)消息。
通过上述步骤,通信实体A13根据接入网设备220提供的无线网络接入到核心网230中。
在一些实施例中,接入网设备210在通信实体A13连接到接入网设备210时,可以为通信实体A13盲添加辅小区。仍可以参阅图7,在盲添加辅小区的过程中,在通信实体A13通过步骤701连接到接入网设备210后,接入网设备210不执行步骤702(相应地,通信实体A13也不执行步骤703),而可以直接执行步骤704以及后续步骤。也就是说,盲添加辅小区相对于基于测量添加辅小区,省却了步骤702和步骤704。
盲添加辅小区的方案中的步骤704以及后续步骤可以参考上文对步骤704-715的介绍,在此不再赘述。
通过图7所示的方案,通信实体A13可以重新接入到5G小区。也就是说,通过图7所示的方案,可以通信实体A13重新添加SCG。
在一些实施例中,参阅图5E,当接入网设备210为通信实体A13成功添加SCG时,终端100的状态栏可以以显示对应于SIM卡A1的4G和5G双网络图标501。如图5E所示,终端100可以通过5G网络传输业务数据,例如高清视频的视频流。从而可以流畅播放高清视频,提高用户的观赏体验。
在一些实施例中,可以理解,接入网设备210为通信实体A13添加SCG有可能会失败。回到图4C,通信实体A13可以执行步骤415,判断添加SCG是否成功。判断添加SCG是否成功的方案可以如下。
回到图7,在一个例子中,通信实体A13在响应于B1事件测量控制消息,测量异系统邻区时,判断异系统邻区的信号质量是否高于门限。若系统邻区的信号质量不高于门限,可以 确定SCG添加失败。在又一个例子中,通信实体A13可以判断当定时器超时时,是否接收到RRC连接重配请求,若没有接收到RRC连接重配请求,可以确定SCG添加失败。在又一个例子中,通信实体A13可以判断步骤709中的随机接入程序是否失败。若步骤709中的随机接入程序失败(例如,定时器超时时,没有接收到随机接入响应),可以确定SCG添加失败。等等。此处不再一一列举。
在接入网设备210通信实体A13添加SCG失败的情况下,通信实体A13可以执行步骤416,可以将其当前驻留的4G小区列入临时性黑名单。当通信实体A13驻留在临时性黑名单中的小区时,通信实体A13不再触发RRC连接重建立,即不再执行步骤411、步骤412等,以避免添加SCG反复失败导致的RRC连接重建立反复发起。
在一些实施例中,当终端100发生重启时,通信实体A13可以清空临时性黑名单。
在一些实施例中,当通信实体A13的跟踪区(track area update,TAU)更新时,通信实体A13可以清空临时性黑名单。
通过本申请实施例提供的网络接入方法,双卡终端在副卡的业务结束时,可以主动断开主卡和网络侧的RRC连接,并通过主卡主动发起RRC连接重建立,从而可以触发网络侧为终端的主卡尽快添加辅小区,改善用户的网络体验。
