Abstract
本申请公开了一种终端设备接入控制方法及装置,用以解决非地面网络中,终端设备选择的公共陆地移动网络可能不是其所处国家的公共陆地移动网络,从而难以正常通信的问题。该方法包括:网络设备接收公共陆地移动网络信息,公共陆地移动网络信息用于指示终端设备选择的第一公共陆地移动网络。网络设备获取终端设备的位置信息,并根据位置信息与第一公共陆地移动网络对应的国家信息确定是否允许终端设备接入第一公共陆地移动网络。
Description
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种终端设备接入控制方法及装置。
公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)由政府或它所批准的经营者以为公众提供陆地移动通信业务为目的建立和经营的网络。用户设备(user equipment,UE)在选择进行PLMN时需要满足国家安规和监管要求,即UE只能接入所在位置的国家的PLMN,例如,UE在A国时,只能接入A国的PLMN,在B国时,只能接入B国的PLMN。由于一般的地面网络中,基站的辐射范围有限,一般情况下,UE不会接入到别国的基站,所以通信协议标准的各种流程中未对UE选择非所在地国家PLMN接入进行限制。
但是在非地面网络(non-terrestrial network,NTN)中,卫星的轨道越高其覆盖面积越大,一个卫星小区可能覆盖多个国家,并且由于一个卫星可以被多个国家的核心网共享使用,因此一个卫星小区可以广播多个国家的PLMN标识(PLMN identification,PLMN ID),导致UE在做PLMN选择和小区选择/重选的过程中,很可能选择了不是其所处国家的PLMN,从而难以正常通信。
发明内容
本申请提供一种终端设备接入控制方法及装置,用以解决NTN中,终端设备选择的PLMN可能不是其所处国家的PLMN,从而难以正常通信的问题。

以下,对本申请中的部分用语进行解释说明,以便于本领域技术人员理解。
1、非接入层(non-access stratum,NAS)和接入层(access stratum,AS)
在长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)和新无线电(new radio,NR)中,UE和基站/接入和移动性管理功能(access and mobility management function,AMF)实体通过空口进行通信。为了更好地对数据进行处理,网络协议定义了若干协议栈,每个栈的功能各不相同,例如,如图1所示。其中,NAS是UE和AMF之间的信令通道,具体过程可以是UE向基站发送NAS消息,基站将NAS消息透传给AMF,基站在透传的过程中不对NAS 消息进行解析。NAS主要负责一些管理功能,如PLMN选择,手动选择,接入控制,注册,签约信息等,具体的过程可以和别的协议层(如AS)协同进行。
AS是指除NAS层之外的协议层,可以包括无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)、分组数据汇聚协议(packet data convergence protocol,PDCP)、无线链路控制(radio link control,RLC)、媒体接入控制(medium access control,MAC)、物理层(physical layer,PHY),AS主要负责切换,加密,数据重传,排序,发送等功能。
2、PLMN
日常生活中为终端设备提供网络服务的一般是PLMN。PLMN由政府或它所批准的经营者,为公众提供陆地移动通信业务目的而建立和经营的网络。可以用不同的PLMN标识(identification,ID)来区分不同的PLMN网络。PLMN标识由移动国家号码(mobile contrary code,MCC)和移动网号(mobile net code,MNC)组成。其中,MCC唯一表示移动用户的所属国家,例如中国的MCC为460。MNC唯一表示该国家中的网络,例如中国移动的MNC为00,中国联通的MNC为01。
UE在接入基站时需要选择一个网络,选网的过程则为PLMN选择。PLMN选择可以如下:
A1,UE的AS根据自己能力扫描所有NR频带(band)的射频(radio frequency,RF)信道(channel)发现可用的PLMN。UE会找出每个频点中RSRP最好的小区然后读该小区的系统消息块1(system information block 1,SIB1)得到PLMN ID。
A2,UE的AS向UE的NAS上报PLMN列表(list),PLMN list包括UE的AS获取的PLMN ID。
A3,UE的NAS在收到UE的AS上报的PLMN list后,将选择其中一个PLMN ID作为UE使用的PLMN。
UE在选择PLMN时,搜索的PLMN可以为:已登记PLMN(registered PLMN,RPLMN),RPLMN为UE关机或者脱网前注册的PLMN;等效PLMN(equivalent PLMN,EPLMN),EPLMN为与UE当前选择的PLMN优先级相同的PLMN;归属地PLMN(home PLMN,HPLMN),该HPLMN的标识存储在手机客户识别模块(subscriber identity module,SIM)卡中,每个SIM卡只有一个HPLMN,出厂时候烧进去的;等效HPLMN(equivalent HPLMN,EHPLMN),与HPLMN优先级相同的PLMN。
3、NTN通信
NTN通信也可以称为卫星通信。卫星通信的架构分为两大类,一是透明转发(transparent)架构,此时卫星只做中继(relay)或者放大器,可以做射频过滤、放大等,将信号重新生成;二是再生(regenerative)架构,这时候卫星可以做新一代节点B(generated node B,gNB)、分布式单元(distributed unit,DU)、relay,这里的relay和第一类中的relay不同,此时不再是单纯relay,还具有信号处理功能的,类似接入回传一体化(integrated access and backhaul,IAB)节点或者其它的中继节点。其中,当卫星做gNB、DU、IAB或者其它的中继节点时,它的功能就类似于普通的gNB、DU、IAB或者其它的中继节点。
NTN通信通过将接入网设备或者部分接入网设备的功能部署在非地面的设备(例如高空平台或者卫星等)上为终端设备提供无缝覆盖,由于非地面设备受自然灾害的影响较小,能提升通信系统的可靠性。为便于说明和理解本申请实施例的方案,本申请后续将以接入网设备部署在卫星上的NTN通信系统为例进行说明。并且,为描述方便,本申请后续将“卫 星上的接入网设备”用“卫星”进行替代说明,将“NTN通信”用“卫星通信”进行替代说明。也即,本申请后续涉及的终端设备与卫星之间的通信,实际上指的是终端设备与卫星上的接入网设备之间的通信。这里统一说明,后续不再赘述。
按照卫星高度,即卫星轨位高度,可以将卫星系统分为高椭圆轨道(highly elliptical orbiting,HEO)卫星、地球同步(geostationary earth orbit,GEO)卫星、中轨(medium earth orbit,MEO)卫星和低轨(low-earth orbit,LEO)卫星,如图2所示。此外,NTN系统还可以包括高空平台(high altitude platform station,HAPS)通信系统等空中网络设备,本发明涉及的网络设备不限于以上举例。
需要说明的是,随着技术的不断发展,本申请实施例的术语有可能发生变化,但都在本申请的保护范围之内。
为了使本申请实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本申请实施例作进一步地详细描述。
本申请实施例中涉及的网元包括网络设备和终端设备。
网络设备可以是接入网设备,也可以是核心网设备。其中,核心网设备可以是核心网中的功能网元,例如,可以是接入和移动性管理功能。所述接入和移动性管理功能,可用于对所述终端设备的接入控制和移动性进行管理,在实际应用中,其包括了LTE中网络框架中移动管理实体(mobility management entity,MME)里的移动性管理功能,并加入了接入管理功能,具体可以负责所述终端设备的注册、移动性管理、跟踪区更新流程、可达性检测、会话管理功能网元的选择、移动状态转换管理等。例如,在5G中,所述接入和移动性管理功能可以是AMF网元。在未来通信,如6G中,所述接入和移动性管理功能仍可以是AMF网元,或有其它的名称,本申请不做限定。
接入网设备是网络侧中一种用于发射或接收信号的实体,如新一代基站(generation Node B,gNodeB)。接入网设备可以是用于与移动设备通信的设备。接入网设备可以是无线局域网(wireless local area networks,WLAN)中的接入点(access point,AP),可以是长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)中的演进型基站(evolutional Node B,eNB或eNodeB),或者中继站或接入点或接入回传一体化(integrated access and backhaul,IAB),或者车载设备、可穿戴设备以及未来5G网络中的接入网设备或者未来演进的公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)网络中的接入网设备,或NR系统中的gNB等。另外,在本申请实施例中,接入网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)与接入网设备进行通信。本申请实施例中的接入网设备可以是指集中单元(central unit,CU)或者DU。或者,接入网设备也可以是CU和DU组成的,例如,如图3所示。其中,CU和DU在物理上可以是分离的,也可以部署在一起,本申请实施例对此不做具体限定。一个CU可以连接一个DU,或者也可以多个DU共用一个CU,可以节省成本,以及易于网络扩展。CU和DU的切分可以按照协议栈切分,其中一种可能的方式是将无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)、业务数据适配协议栈(service data adaptation protocol,SDAP)以及分组数据汇聚协议(packet data convergence protocol,PDCP)层部署在CU,其余的无线链路控制(radio link control,RLC)层、介质访问控制(media access control,MAC)层以及物理层部署在DU。本发明中并不完全限定上述协议栈切分方式,还可以有其它的切分方式。CU和DU之间通过F1接口连接。CU代表gNB通过Ng接口和核心网连接。本申请实施例中的接入网设备可以是指集 中式单元控制面(CU-CP)节点或者集中式单元用户面(CU-UP)节点,或者,网络设备也可以是CU-CP和CU-UP。其中CU-CP负责控制面功能,主要包含RRC和PDCP-C。PDCP-C主要负责控制面数据的加解密,完整性保护,数据传输等。CU-UP负责用户面功能,主要包含SDAP和PDCP-U。其中SDAP主要负责将核心网的数据进行处理并将流(flow)映射到承载。PDCP-U主要负责数据面的加解密,完整性保护,头压缩,序列号维护,数据传输等。其中CU-CP和CU-UP通过E1接口连接。CU-CP代表gNB通过Ng接口和核心网连接。通过F1-C(控制面)和DU连接。CU-UP通过F1-U(用户面)和DU连接。当然还有一种可能的实现是PDCP-C也在CU-UP。本申请实施例所提及的接入网设备可以为包括CU、或DU、或包括CU和DU的设备、或者控制面CU节点(CU-CP节点)和用户面CU节点(CU-UP节点)以及DU节点的设备。此外,在其它可能的情况下,接入网设备可以是其它为终端设备提供无线通信功能的装置。本申请的实施例对接入网设备所采用的具体技术和具体设备形态不做限定。为方便描述,本申请实施例中,为终端设备提供无线通信功能的装置称为接入网设备。
终端设备可以是能够接收接入网设备调度和指示信息的无线终端设备,无线终端设备可以是指向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备,或具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、或连接到无线调制解调器的其他处理设备。无线终端设备可以经无线接入网(如,radio access network,RAN)与一个或多个核心网或者互联网进行通信,无线终端设备可以是移动终端设备,如移动电话(或称为“蜂窝”电话,手机(mobile phone))、计算机和数据卡,例如,可以是便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的或者车载的移动装置,它们与无线接入网交换语言和/或数据。例如,个人通信业务(personal communications service,PCS)电话、无绳电话、会话发起协议(SIP)话机、无线本地环路(wireless local loop,WLL)站、个人数字助理(personal digital assistant,PDA)、平板电脑(Pad)、带无线收发功能的电脑等设备。无线终端设备也可以称为系统、订户单元(subscriber unit)、订户站(subscriber station),移动站(mobile station)、移动台(mobile station,MS)、远程站(remote station)、接入点(access point,AP)、远程终端设备(remote terminal)、接入终端设备(access terminal)、用户终端设备(user terminal)、用户代理(user agent)、用户站(subscriber station,SS)、用户端设备(customer premises equipment,CPE)、终端(terminal)、用户设备(user equipment,UE)、移动终端(mobile terminal,MT)等。无线终端设备也可以是可穿戴设备以及下一代通信系统,例如,5G网络中的终端设备或者未来演进的PLMN网络中的终端设备,NR通信系统中的终端设备等。
此外,本申请实施例还可以适用于面向未来的其他通信技术。本申请描述的网络架构以及业务场景是为了更加清楚的说明本申请的技术方案,并不构成对本申请提供的技术方案的限定,本领域普通技术人员可知,随着网络架构的演变和新业务场景的出现,本申请提供的技术方案对于类似的技术问题,同样适用。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例不限定以上通信系统的类型和制式。例如:所述通信系统可以为:第五代(The 5th Generation,5G)通信系统、LTE通信系统等。
本申请实施例可以应用于第四代移动通信系统(the fourth generation,4G)系统,5G系统,NTN系统,车到万物(vehicle to everything,V2X),长期演进-车联网(LTE-vehicle,LTE-V),车到车(vehicle to vehicle,V2V),车联网,机器类通信(Machine Type Communications,MTC),物联网(internet of things,IoT),长期演进-机器到机器 (LTE-machine to machine,LTE-M),机器到机器(machine to machine,M2M),物联网,或者将来的移动通信系统。
下面结合附图分别对每个应用场景进行具体介绍。
示例性的,在参阅图4所示应用场景中,卫星可以作为基站与核心网中的AMF实体建立N2或者Ng连接,为终端设备提供无线接入服务。
示例性的,在通信系统中,RAN中的两个基站之间可以建立X2或Xn连接,以传输小区信息等数据,从而实现终端设备的小区重选和切换。例如,RAN中建立连接的两个基站可以为:作为基站的卫星与作为基站的卫星,作为基站的卫星与传统的基站,由多个部分功能组成的基站与传统的基站之间,或者由多个部分功能组成的基站与作为基站的卫星之间等。在图5所示应用场景中,两个作为基站的卫星之间可以建立连接,以进行数据和信令的交互。
示例性的,在支持载波聚合的通信系统中,可以引用双连接(dual-connectivity,DC)技术实现,从而为用户提供更高的速率和提高频谱效率,在该通信系统中,支持双连接的终端设备可以同时连接两个基站,以增加单个用户的吞吐率。终端设备同时连接的两个基站之间也需要通过相应的接口建立连接,以进行数据和信令的交互,参阅图6所示。需要说明的时,终端设备同时连接的两个基站中一个作为主基站,另外一个作为辅基站。当基站连接的核心网不同以及两个基站的类型的不同,AMF实体与基站之间的接口、两个基站之间的接口也会相应的变化,如图7中各个接口示意图所示。
示例性的,在图8所示的应用场景中,卫星还可以作为终端设备和基站之间的中继设备或者作为基站的射频拉远单元(remote radio unit,RRU)。在该场景中,卫星主要负责L1中继,用于进行物理层转发,且高层不可见。
示例性的,在图9所示的应用场景中,RAN中的基站拆分为DU和CU两个功能部分,其中卫星可以作为DU。在该应用场景中,DU和CU之间的接口为F1接口。
还需要说明的是,以上图4-图9所示的应用场景仅为本申请适用的应用场景示例,且以上示例中以卫星为例。
目前,UE在进行PLMN选择时,选择的PLMN ID主要满足的条件为:该PLMN ID对应的PLMN为RPLMN或者EPLMN或者HPLMN或者EHPLMN。UE在进行小区选择和重选时,所选择小区主要满足的条件为:该小区的PLMN ID中至少有一个PLMN ID对应的PLMN是RPLMN或者EPLMN或者HPLMN或者EHPLMN。
在地面通信中,在RRC建立或者RRC恢复过程中,UE会在RRC建立完成消息或者RRC恢复完成消息中携带UE选择的PLMN ID,只要UE选择的PLMN ID满足上述条件,网络允许UE的接入。
但是在卫星通信中,卫星覆盖的通信范围非常大,如GEO卫星,一个波束的面积就可达数百千米,在国家密集的区域,很可能一个卫星小区就会覆盖数个国家。并且,由于一个卫星可以被多个国家的核心网共享使用,因此一个卫星小区会广播多个国家的核心网PLMN ID导致UE在做PLMN选择和小区选择/重选的过程中,很可能选择了不是其所处国家的PLMN,从而难以正常通信。
基于此,本申请实施例提供一种终端设备接入控制方法及装置,用以解决NTN中,终端设备选择的PLMN可能不是其所处国家的PLMN,从而难以正常通信的问题。其中,方法和装置是基于同一发明构思的,由于方法及装置解决问题的原理相似,因此装置与方 法的实施可以相互参见,重复之处不再赘述。
应理解,本申请实施例中“至少一个”是指一个或者多个,“多个”是指两个或两个以上。“和/或”,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的情况,其中A、B可以是单数或者复数。字符“/”一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。“以下至少一(项)个”或其类似表达,是指的这些项中的任意组合,包括单项(个)或复数项(个)的任意组合。例如,a、b或c中的至少一项(个),可以表示:a,b,c,a和b,a和c,b和c,或a、b和c,其中a、b、c可以是单个,也可以是多个。
需要理解的是,在本申请的描述中,“第一”、“第二”等词汇,仅用于区分描述的目的,而不能理解为指示或暗示相对重要性,也不能理解为指示或暗示顺序。
下面结合附图对本申请提供的终端设备接入控制方法进行具体说明。
实施例一:
如图10所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种终端设备接入控制方法。本申请提供的终端设备接入控制方法可以应用于NTN中。该方法可以应用于处于RRC空闲态的终端设备建立RRC连接,或者,处于RRC非激活态的终端设备恢复RRC连接的场景中。终端设备接入控制方法具体可以包括:
S1001,终端设备向接入网设备发送PLMN信息,该PLMN信息用于指示终端设备选择的第一PLMN。相应的,接入网设备接收终端设备发送的PLMN信息。
示例性的,接入网设备可以是卫星,例如,接入网设备可以是作为独立的接入网设备,与核心网相连的卫星。或者,接入网设备也可以是作为中继设备,与地面基站相连的卫星。或者,接入网设备也可以是作为DU,与地面CU相连的卫星,等等。
一种实现方式中,终端设备可以向接入网设备发送RRC建立完成消息或者RRC恢复完成消息,该RRC建立完成消息或者RRC恢复完成消息携带PLMN信息。
可选的,在步骤S1001之前,终端设备可以向接入网设备发送RRC建立请求或者RRC恢复请求,该RRC建立请求用于请求接入网设备建立RRC连接,RRC恢复请求用于请求接入网设备恢复RRC连接。
进一步的,接入网设备在接收到终端设备发送的RRC建立请求或者RRC恢复请求后,还可以向终端设备发送RRC建立消息或者RRC恢复消息,该RRC建立消息或者RRC恢复消息用于指示终端设备建立信令无线承载1(signalling radio bearer 1,SRB1)。
S1002,接入网设备获取终端设备的位置信息。
一种可能的实现方式中,接入网设备可以对终端设备进行定位,得到位置信息。示例性的,接入网设备可以对终端设备进行定位时,可以通过如下方式实现:终端设备测量如下参数中至少一项:各接入网设备的时间提前量(timing advance,TA)、各接入网设备的信号强度差、各接入网设备信号的到达角度(angle of arrival,AoA)等,终端设备向接入网设备上报测量的参数,接入网设备根据终端设备上报的参数确定终端设备的位置。
另一种可能的实现方式中,接入网设备可以接收终端设备发送的位置信息。例如,终端设备向接入网设备发送RRC建立完成消息或者RRC恢复完成消息时,RRC建立完成消息或者RRC恢复完成消息可以携带终端设备的位置信息。
再一种可能的实现方式中,终端设备可以向接入网设备上报自身的位置信息,若接入网设备不信任终端设备上报的位置信息,接入网设备可以对终端设备进行定位。
示例性的,终端设备的位置信息可以是终端设备的全球定位系统(global positioning system,GPS)位置信息,例如经纬度信息等。
或者,终端设备的位置信息也可以是终端设备所在虚拟小区的信息,接入网设备覆盖的一块区域(均匀或者非均匀)划分成多个虚拟小区,例如图11所示。这些虚拟小区可以尽可能地与国家边界相对应,虚拟小区的信息可以在小区的系统消息里广播。上述方式中,由于虚拟小区可大可小,是一个较为模糊的位置信息,因此通过这种方式可以保护终端设备隐私。
或者,终端设备的位置信息也可以是终端设备所在国家的国家信息。例如,终端设备可以通过小区广播的系统消息获取国界线信息,并通过定位获取自身的GPS位置信息。终端设备根据国界线信息以及自身的GPS位置信息可以确定自身所处的国家。
S1003,接入网设备根据位置信息与第一PLMN对应的国家信息确定是否允许终端设备接入第一PLMN。
一种实现方式中,当位置信息对应的国家信息与第一PLMN对应的国家信息不一致时,接入网设备可以确定终端设备不允许接入第一PLMN。
当位置信息对应的国家信息与第一PLMN对应的国家信息一致时,接入网设备可以确定终端设备允许接入第一PLMN。
一种示例性说明中,位置信息对应的国家信息与第一PLMN对应的国家信息不一致,可以指位置信息对应的国家与第一PLMN对应的国家不相同。位置信息对应的国家信息与第一PLMN对应的国家信息一致,可以指位置信息对应的国家与第一PLMN对应的国家相同。例如,若位置信息对应的国家为甲国,第一PLMN对应的国家为乙国,可以认为位置信息对应的国家信息与第一PLMN对应的国家信息不一致。若位置信息对应的国家为甲国,第一PLMN对应的国家为甲国,可以认为位置信息对应的国家信息与第一PLMN对应的国家信息一致。
另一种示例性说明中,位置信息对应的国家信息与第一PLMN对应的国家信息不一致,也可以指位置信息对应的国家与第一PLMN对应的国家不相同,且位置信息对应的位置与第一PLMN对应的国家的国界线之间的距离大于距离阈值。例如,假设距离阈值为50m,若位置信息对应的国家为甲国,第一PLMN对应的国家为乙国,且位置信息对应的位置与乙国的国家线之间的距离大于50m,则可以认为位置信息对应的国家信息与第一PLMN对应的国家信息不一致。若位置信息对应的国家为甲国,第一PLMN对应的国家为乙国,但是位置信息对应的位置与乙国的国家线之间的距离小于50m,则可以认为位置信息对应的国家信息与第一PLMN对应的国家信息一致。上述方式中,通过允许国家线附近一定范围的终端设备接入,可以避免因为定位误差而给终端设备带来无法接入的情况,从而可以保障终端设备的接入效率,提升用户体验。
在一些实施例中,接入网设备在确定终端设备不允许接入第一PLMN之后,可以向终端设备发送RRC释放消息,RRC释放消息用于释放终端设备的RRC连接。终端设备在接收到RRC释放消息后可以进入RRC空闲态或者RRC非激活态。
示例性的,RRC释放消息可以携带如下信息中至少一项信息:释放原因、终端设备允许选择的一个或者多个PLMN标识,释放原因为第一PLMN不是终端设备所处国家的PLMN。上述方式中,通过告诉终端设备哪些PLMN ID是当前位置的终端设备可以选择的,从而可以避免终端设备次再发起RRC建立或者RRC恢复时选择不合适的PLMN,进而可 以提高接入速度,提升用户体验。
在另一些实施例中,接入网设备在确定终端设备不允许接入第一PLMN之后,还可以根据终端设备的位置信息将终端设备切换到目标小区,目标小区的至少一个PLMN标识对应的国家与终端设备的位置信息对应的国家相同。
一种实现方式中,接入网设备还可以向目标小区对应的接入网设备或者目标小区对应的接入网设备所连接的AMF实体发送切换原因,切换原因为第一PLMN不是终端设备所处国家的PLMN。
例如,接入网设备可以向目标小区对应的接入网设备或者目标小区对应的接入网设备所连接的AMF实体发送切换请求,该切换请求用于请求将终端设备切换到目标小区,该切换请求中携带切换原因,切换原因为第一PLMN不是终端设备所处国家的PLMN。
在一些实施例中,接入网设备可以根据记录的各个小区的PLMN标识确定目标小区,并向目标小区对应的接入网设备或者目标小区对应的接入网设备所连接的AMF实体发送切换请求。
可选的,接入网设备还可以接收目标小区对应的接入网设备或者目标小区对应的接入网设备所连接的AMF实体发送的切换失败消息,切换失败消息可以携带拒绝原因,该拒绝原因为目标小区的所有PLMN标识都不是终端设备所处国家的PLMN标识。由于小区的PLMN标识可能发生变化,若接入网设备未及时更新记录,则可能选择不合适的目标小区,这种情况下,目标小区对应的接入网设备或者目标小区对应的接入网设备所连接的AMF实体可以向该接入网设备发送切换失败消息,还可以通知该接入网设备切换失败的原因为目标小区的所有PLMN标识都不是终端设备所处国家的PLMN标识。
此外,接入网设备还可以向终端设备发送终端设备允许选择的PLMN标识。
在一些实施例中,接入网设备在确定终端设备允许接入第一PLMN之后,接入网设备可以与AMF实体建立该终端设备的上下文。
本申请实施例一中,接入网设备通过判定终端设备的位置信息和选择的PLMN所代表的国家信息是否一致,来对可能异常接入的终端设备进行释放或者小区切换,从而可以在RRC接入阶段阻止终端设备的异常接入。并且,接入网设备还可以告知终端设备可以选择的PLMN,从而可以避免终端设备再选不合适的PLMN,从而有利于提高PLMN选择的速度。
为了更好的理解本申请实施例提供的方法,下面结合处于RRC空闲态的终端设备建立RRC连接场景对终端设备接入过程进行详尽描述。终端设备接入过程可以如图12所示:
S1201,终端设备向接入网设备发送RRC建立请求消息,RRC建立请求消息用于请求接入网设备建立与终端设备之间的RRC连接。
