本申请要求在2020年08月26日提交中国国家知识产权局、申请号为202010873946.4、申请名称为“一种承载处理方法及装置”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。
本申请实施例涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种承载处理方法及装置。
在第四代移动通信技术(the 4
th generation,4G)中会话管理与演进的分组系统(evolved packet system,EPS)承载相关,而在5G中与会话管理相关的则是协议数据单元(protocol data unit,PDU)会话。为了保证终端设备在4G网络和5G网络之间移动时业务的连续性,当终端设备在4G网络建立EPS承载时,网络不仅会为终端设备分配4G网络的EPS承载参数,还会分配与之关联的5G网络的PDU会话参数;当终端设备处于5G网络建立PDU会话时,网络不仅会为终端设备分配5G网络的PDU会话参数,还会分配与之关联的4G网络的EPS承载参数。因此,终端设备在4G网络与5G网络之间移动时,4G网络的EPS承载和5G网络的PDU会话就可以无缝转换,最大限度的保证业务的连续性。而4G网络能够这样做的一个前提就是终端设备支持接入5G网络的能力。
然而,3GPP TS 24.501协议规定了终端设备在5G网络下发生某些场景时,如IP多媒体子系统(IP multimedia subsystem,IMS)注册失败等时,终端设备需要禁用接入5G网络的能力,而禁用接入5G网络的能力的终端设备在4G网络下建立EPS承载时,网络不会为终端设备分配与之关联的PDU会话参数,这就导致终端设备在启用接入5G网络的能力后,没有关联PDU会话参数的EPS承载,在终端设备从4G网络异系统移动到5G网络后,无法映射出EPS承载所关联的PDU会话,导致EPS承载被释放,造成业务中断,影响用户体验。

本申请提供的技术方案可以适用于4G网络架构,也可以适用于4G-5G互操作网络架构,以及未来的通信网络架构等。下面介绍本申请适用的部分网络架构,在下面的介绍中,以终端设备为用户设备(user equipment,UE)为例。
如图1所示,为本申请适用的一种可能的4G网络架构示意图,该4G网络架构中的网元包括UE、移动管理实体(mobility management entity,MME)、服务GPRS支持节点(serving GPRS support node,SGSN)、归属签约服务器(home subscriber server,HSS)、服务网关(serving gateway,SGW)、分组数据网网关(packet data network gateway,PDN gateway,PGW)、策略与计费规则功能(policy and charging rules function,PCRF)实体、演进的通用陆基无线接入网(evolved universal terrestrial radio access network,E-TURAN)等。另外,网络架构中还包括2G/3G接入网络,即GSM/EDGE无线通讯网络(GSM EDGE radio access network,GERAN)/UMTS陆地无线接入网(UMTS terrestrial radio access network,UTRAN),GERAN/UTRAN和SGSN参与了终端设备在4G与2G/3G之间进行的异系统移动,包括空闲态的移动和连接态的切换等。
如图2所示,为本申请适用的另一种可能的4G-5G互操作网络架构示意图,如图2所示,不同于4G网络架构,在网络架构4G-5G互操作网络架构中还包括5G网络架构中的统一数据管理(unified data management,UDM)、第五代无线接入网(NG-RAN)、接入和移动性管理功能实体(access and mobility management function,AMF)、用户面功能实体(user plane function,UPF)、会话管理功能实体(session management function,SMF)等网元。其中,为了更好的实现4G-5G互操作,使得业务连续性更好,会选择4G-5G融合网关,即4G的PGW-C(PGW网关的控制面)和5G的SMF是融合的(SMF+PGW-C),4G的PGW-U(PGW网关的用户面)和5G的UPF是融合的(UPF+PGW-U),这样终端设备在4G接入,建立EPS承载时,如果终端设备已启动接入5G网络的能力,融合网关不仅可以分配4G网络的EPS承载参数,还可以分配与之关联的5G网络的PDU会话参数;终端设备在5G接入,建立PDU会话时,融合网关不仅可以分配5G网络的PDU会话参数,还可以分配与之关联的4G网络的EPS承载参数。这样在4G-5G互操作时,EPS承载与PDU会话就可以很好地进行转换,不需要重新建立,保持了业务连续性。
如上的图1和图2所示网络架构,均可作为本申请所适用的网络架构。当然以上几种 网络架构只是示例,本申请不限于适用在以上网络架构。
在介绍本申请实施例之前,首先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)、终端设备,包括向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备,例如可以包括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处理设备。该终端设备可以经无线接入网(radio access network,RAN)与核心网进行通信,与RAN交换语音和/或数据。该终端设备可以包括UE、无线终端设备、移动终端设备、设备到设备通信(device-to-device,D2D)终端设备、V2X终端设备、机器到机器/机器类通信(machine-to-machine/machine-type communications,M2M/MTC)终端设备、物联网(internet of things,IoT)终端设备、订户单元(subscriber unit)、订户站(subscriber station),移动站(mobile station)、远程站(remote station)、接入点(access point,AP)、远程终端(remote terminal)、接入终端(access terminal)、用户终端(user terminal)、用户代理(user agent)、或用户装备(user device)等。例如,可以包括移动电话(或称为“蜂窝”电话),具有移动终端设备的计算机,便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的移动装置等。例如,个人通信业务(personal communication service,PCS)电话、无绳电话、会话发起协议(session initiation protocol,SIP)话机、无线本地环路(wireless local loop,WLL)站、个人数字助理(personal digital assistant,PDA)、等设备。还包括受限设备,例如功耗较低的设备,或存储能力有限的设备,或计算能力有限的设备等。例如包括条码、射频识别(radio frequency identification,RFID)、传感器、全球定位系统(global positioning system,GPS)、激光扫描器等信息传感设备。
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或智能穿戴式设备等,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、智能头盔、智能首饰等。
而如上介绍的各种终端设备,如果位于车辆上(例如放置在车辆内或安装在车辆内),都可以认为是车载终端设备,车载终端设备例如也称为车载单元(on-board unit,OBU)。
本申请实施例中,终端设备还可以包括中继(relay)。或者理解为,能够与基站进行数据通信的都可以看作终端设备。
2)、N1能力,指终端设备支持通过5G非接入层(non access stratum,NAS)协议接入5G网络的能力,也称为接入5G网络的能力,还可以称为N1模式能力(N1mode capability)。
3)、S1能力,指终端设备支持通过4G NAS协议接入4G网络的能力,也称为接入4G网络的能力,还可以称为S1模式能力(S1mode capability),或者演进的通用陆基无线接入能力(E-UTRA capability)。
4)、3GPP TS 24.501协议,3GPP TS 24.501协议规定了终端设备在5G下发生了某些场景(例如IMS注册失败等),终端设备需要禁用(disable)N1能力,也即终端设备不支持N1能力。根据3GPP TS 24.501协议4.9.2章节,终端设备Disable N1后,会尝试搜网到 4G的长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)网络,如果搜网成功,会驻留在LTE网络,发起附着(attach)请求或者跟踪区域更新(tracking area update,TAU)请求,告知网络关闭N1能力。并规定终端设备在Disable N1关闭N1能力之后,在LTE下建立的EPS承载,不会在分组数据网(packet data network,PDN)连接请求(PDN connectivity request)消息中携带协议数据单元(protocol data unit,PDU)会话标识信息(5G下不同的PDU会话通过PDU会话标识来唯一标识),因为协议规定只有支持N1能力,终端设备才需要携带PDU会话标识,这就使得网络向终端设备下发缺省承载激活请求时只会携带4G网络的EPS承载参数,不会携带关联的5G网络的PDU会话参数。
另外,3GPP TS 24.501协议还规定在语音中心改为数据中心、N1模式重新启用(N1mode re-enable)定时器超时等场景下,终端设备重新启用(re-enable)N1能力,终端设备对应的这些没有关联PDU会话参数的EPS承载,在终端设备从4G网络异系统移动到5G网络后,无法映射出EPS承载所关联的PDU会话,导致EPS承载被释放,造成业务中断,用户体验很差。并且随着5G独立组网(standalone,SA)商用后,会越来越多出现上述问题场景。
如图3所示,为终端设备禁用接入5G网络的能力后,驻留在LTE网络的过程示意图。
S301:终端设备在禁用N1能力后(即禁用接入5G网络的能力后,例如,可参考3GPP TS 24.501协议提到的场景),会尝试搜网到LTE网络,如果搜网成功,终端设备驻留在LTE网络。
S302:终端设备成功驻留LTE网络后,终端设备发起attach或TAU流程,例如,终端设备向网络发送attach请求(request)或TAU request消息。其中attach请求(request)或TAU request消息中的终端设备网络能力(network capability)信元被设置为N1不支持模式(N1mode not supported),指示终端设备不支持N1能力,也即不支持接入5G网络的能力。
S303:当终端设备上的某一个或多个应用被启动时,触发终端设备请求建立一个新的PDN连接。
S304:终端设备向网络发起PDN连接建立请求消息,由于终端设备不支持N1能力,终端设备不会生成PDU会话标识信息(如PDU session ID),并不会在PDN连接请求消息中携带PDU会话标识信息。
需要理解的是,在本申请实施例中,网络可以是指网络侧的某一个或多个网元,例如网络可以代指位于网络侧的移动管理网元(如MME)、网关网元(如SGW和/或PGW)等。
具体的,终端设备向网络侧的移动管理网元(如MME)发送的PDN连接建立请求(PDN connectivity request)消息(如图中S304a)中不会携带PDU会话标识信息,移动管理网元向网关网元(如SGW和/或PGW)发送的创建会话请求(create session request)消息(如图中S304b)中也不会携带PDU会话标识信息。
S305:网络向终端设备下发缺省承载建立请求消息,缺省承载建立请求消息中不会携带PDU会话参数。
具体的,网关网元向移动管理网元下发创建会话响应(create session response)消息(如图中S305a),移动管理网元在接收到网关网元下发的创建会话响应消息后,向终端设备下发不携带PDU会话参数的激活默认EPS承载上下文请求(activate default EPS bearer context request)消息(如图中S305b)。
其中,如果网络中的网关网元为4G网络架构的网关(SGW和/或PGW),网关网元不会生成PDU会话参数,如果网络中的网关网元为4G-5G融合网关(SGW和/或PGW),因4G-5G融合网关没有收到终端设备的PDU会话标识信息,则认为该新建的PDN连接不支持与5G的互操作,也即该新建的PDN连接不会被映射到5G的PDU会话,故在该步骤中,4G-5G融合网关也不会生成PDU会话参数。
S306:终端设备向网络回复缺省承载激活成功,建立EPS承载。
具体的,终端设备向移动管理网元回复激活默认EPS承载上下文接受(activate default EPS bearer context accept)消息(如图中S306a),移动管理网元在接收到终端设备回复的激活默认EPS承载上下文接受消息后,向网关网元发送修改承载请求(modify bearer request)消息(如图中S306b),网关网元根据所述修改承载请求消息,向移动管理网元发出修改承载响应(modify bearer response)消息(如图中S306c),终端设备建立EPS承载完成。
S307:终端设备重新启用N1能力(即启用接入5G网络的能力)。
例如,在3GPP TS 24.501协议规定的某些场景下(例如语音中心改为数据中心、N1mode re-enable定时器超时等),终端设备重新Enable N1能力(即启用接入5G网络的能力)。
S308:终端设备因为无线能力改变而发起TAU流程并成功执行,发送TAU request消息。其中TAU request消息中的终端设备network capability信元被设置N1为支持模式(N1mode supported),指示网络终端设备支持N1能力。而终端设备在无线能力包括启用N1能力(即启用接入5G网络的能力)后,在终端设备从4G网络异系统移动到5G网络后,根据现有技术的方案将无法映射出EPS承载所关联的PDU会话,导致EPS承载被释放,造成业务中断,影响用户体验。
本申请旨在解决现有技术中终端设备在禁用接入5G网络的能力后建立的EPS承载,在终端设备启动接入5G网络的能力后,异系统移动到5G网络,由于没有关联的PDU会话参数,无法映射出EPS承载所关联的PDU会话,导致EPS承载被释放,造成业务中断,影响用户体验的问题。
此外,本申请的方案并不限于4G和5G网络之间的切换场景。本申请同样适用于如下场景:当终端设备在禁用接入第一网络的能力后建立的第二网络的数据通道,在终端设备启动接入第一网络的能力后,异系统移动到第一网络。
另外,需要理解,在本申请实施例中,至少一个还可以描述为一个或多个,多个可以是两个、三个、四个或者更多个,本申请不做限制。在本申请实施例中,“/”可以表示前后关联的对象是一种“或”的关系,例如,A/B可以表示A或B;“和/或”可以用于描述关联对象存在三种关系,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,其中A,B可以是单数或者复数。为了便于描述本申请实施例的技术方案,在本申请实施例中,可以采用“第一”、“第二”等字样对功能相同或相似的技术特征进行区分。该“第一”、“第二”等字样并不对数量和执行次序进行限定,并且“第一”、“第二”等字样也并不限定一定不同。在本申请实施例中,“示例性的”或者“例如”等词用于表示例子、例证或说明,被描述为“示例性的”或者“例如”的任何实施例或设计方案不应被解释为比其它实施例或设计方案更优选或更具优势。使用“示例性的”或者“例如”等词旨在以具体方式呈现相关概念,便于理解。
下面结合附图详细说明本申请实施例。
图4为本申请实施例提供的一种承载处理过程示意图,该过程包括:
S401:终端设备在启用接入5G网络的能力后,向移动管理网元发送第一消息,所述移动管理网元接收所述第一消息,所述第一消息包括4G网络EPS承载关联的PDU会话标识信息。
其中,所述EPS承载为所述终端设备在所述接入5G网络的能力被禁用后(disabled)建立的。
在本申请实施例中,终端设备先被禁用接入5G网络的能力,然后建立4G网络EPS承载,之后在启用接入5G网络的能力后,向移动管理网元发起承载修改流程,以获取4G网络EPS承载关联的PDU会话参数,从而实现终端设备异系统移动到5G网络后,可以根据所述PDU会话参数将4G网络EPS承载无缝转换(transfer),或映射(map)到5G网络的PDU会话。本申请实施例可以适用于4G-5G融合网络架构,所涉及的移动管理网元可以是MME等;所涉及的网关网元可以是融合网关,如SMF+PGW-C等。
在一种可能的实施中,如果终端设备在禁用接入5G网络的能力后建立有EPS承载(即没有关联PDU会话参数的EPS承载),终端设备在启用接入5G网络的能力后,可以主动发起承载修改流程,向移动管理网元发送第一消息,所述第一消息包括4G网络EPS承载关联的PDU会话标识信息。作为一种示例,所述第一消息可以为承载资源修改请求(bearer resource modification request)消息,并在该消息中携带有4G网络EPS承载关联的PDU会话标识信息,如PDU会话(session)身份标识(identity,ID)。
另外,因为终端设备在禁用接入5G网络的能力后,发起PDN连接建立4G网络EPS承载时,可能会选择到如图1所示的4G网关,也可能选择到如图2所示的4G-5G融合网关,而4G网关并不能根据PDU会话标识信息为终端设备建立的4G网络EPS承载分配对应PDU会话参数。因此为了避免额外的信令开销,当网络支持处理所述PDU会话标识信息时,即网络对应的网关网元为4G-5G融合网关时,可以在终端设备建立4G网络EPS承载的过程中,或在终端设备建立4G网络EPS承载后,由网络侧的移动管理网元向终端设备发送包括指示信息的第三消息,该指示信息用于指示网络能够处理PDU会话标识信息。
作为一种示例,所述第三消息可以为激活承载上下文请求消息。例如:在终端设备向移动管理网元发送PDN连接请求消息后,移动管理网元在向终端设备发送的激活缺省EPS承载上下文请求消息中携带上述指示信息。
S402:所述移动管理网元向网关网元发送承载资源命令消息,所述网关网元接收所述承载资源命令消息,所述承载资源命令消息包括所述PDU会话标识信息。
S403:所述网关网元向所述移动管理网元发送更新承载请求消息,所述移动管理网元接收所述更新承载请求消息,所述更新承载请求消息包括为所述EPS承载分配的PDU会话参数。
移动管理网元在接收到终端设备发送的包括PDU会话标识信息的第一消息后,向网关网元发送包括所述PDU会话标识信息的承载资源命令(bearer resource command)消息,从而指示网关网元对所述PDU会话标识信息进行处理,为终端设备对应的4G网络EPS承载分配PDU会话参数。
网关网元接收到包含所述PDU会话标识信息的承载资源命令后,根据所述PDU会话 标识信息为终端设备对应的4G网络EPS承载分配PDU会话参数,并通过更新承载请求(update bearer request)消息发送给移动管理网元。其中所述PDU会话参数包括单网络切片选择辅助信息(single network slice selection assistance information,S-NSSAI)、服务质量(quality of service,QoS)流描述(QoS flow descriptions)、QoS规则(QoS rules)、会话聚合最大比特率(session-aggregate maximum bit rate,session-AMBR)等中的一项或多项。
S404:所述移动管理网元向所述终端设备发送第二消息,所述终端设备接收所述第二消息,所述第二消息包括所述PDU会话参数。
具体的,移动管理网元接收到网关网元发送的更新承载请求消息后,通过第二消息,将包含为终端设备对应的4G网络EPS承载分配的PDU会话参数发送给终端设备。作为一种示例,所述第二消息可以为修改承载上下文请求消息(modify bearer context request)或激活承载上下文请求消息等。
在一种可能的实施中,终端设备接收到第二消息后,还可以向移动管理网元发送修改承载上下文接受(modify bearer context accept)消息,告知移动管理网元修改4G网络EPS承载上下文成功,移动管理网元还可以向网关网元发送更新承载响应(update bearer response)消息,告知网关网元终端设备修改4G网络EPS承载上下文成功。
终端设备保存第二消息包括的4G网络EPS承载所关联的PDU会话参数,当终端设备异系统移动到5G网络后,可以根据所述PDU会话参数,将4G网络EPS承载无缝转换(或映射)到5G网络PDU会话的QoS流(QoS flow),避免终端设备业务的中断。
在上述图4的方案中,在禁用接入5G网络的能力后建立有4G网络EPS承载终端设备在启用接入5G网络的能力后,主动发起承载资源修改请求,以获得PDU会话参数。考虑到终端设备在禁用接入5G网络的能力后,发起PDN连接建4G网络EPS承载时,可能会选择到如图1所示的4G网关,也可能选择到如图2所示的4G-5G融合网关,本申请实施例还提供一种承载处理方案,以应对终端设备选择到如图1所示的4G网关或如图2所示的4G-5G融合网关等场景。
图5为本申请实施例提供的一种承载处理过程示意图,该过程包括:
S501:终端设备在启用接入5G网络的能力后,去激活4G网络EPS承载。
其中,所述EPS承载为所述终端设备在所述接入5G网络的能力被禁用后建立的。
在本申请实施例中,禁用接入5G网络的能力后建立有4G网络EPS承载的终端设备在启用接入5G网络的能力后,去激活4G网络EPS承载,并向移动管理网元重新发送包括所述4G网络EPS承载关联的PDU会话标识信息,以获取4G网络EPS承载关联的PDU会话参数,从而实现终端设备异系统移动到5G网络后,可以根据所述PDU会话参数将4G网络EPS承载无缝转换(或映射)到5G网络PDU会话的QoS流,可以适用于终端设备在禁用接入5G网络的能力后建立的4G网络EPS承载时,移动管理网元选择到如图1所示的4G网关或如图2所示的4G-5G融合网关等场景。
另外,需要理解是,如果终端设备在禁用接入5G网络的能力后建立4G网络EPS承载时,移动管理网元连接(或选择)到4G网关,则终端设备在去激活4G网络EPS承载时对应的网关网元为4G网关,如果终端设备在禁用接入5G网络的能力后建立4G网络EPS承载时,移动管理网元连接到4G-5G融合网关,则终端设备在去激活4G网络EPS承载时对应的网关网元为4G-5G融合网关。并且无论终端设备在去激活4G网络EPS承载时 对应的网关网元为4G网关,还是4G-5G融合网关。后续,在终端设备携带PDU会话标识信息发起的PDN连接流程中,移动管理网元连接的网关网元均为4G-5G融合网关。
为了便于说明,在本申请实施例中,可以将终端设备在禁用接入5G网络的能力后建立的4G网络EPS承载对应的网关网元称为第一网关网元;将终端设备启用接入5G网络的能力后,重新建立PDN连接流程对应的网关网元称为第二网关网元。其中,第一网关网元可以为4G网关(如PGW等),也可以为4G-5G融合网关(如SMF+PGW-C等);第二网关网元为4G-5G融合网关(如SMF+PGW-C等)。
在一种可能的实施中,所述去激活4G网络EPS承载,可以由终端设备在启用接入5G网络的能力后主动发起。
示例的:如图6所示,终端设备在启用接入5G网络的能力后,可以向移动管理网元发送PDN连接分离请求(PDN disconnect request)消息,移动管理网元接收终端设备发送的PDN连接分离请求消息后,向第一网关网元发送删除会话请求(delete session request)消息,请求网关网元删除所述EPS承载。移动管理网元接收到第一网关网元回复的删除会话响应(delete session response)消息后,向终端设备发送去激活EPS承载上下文请求(deactivate EPS bearer context request)消息,指示终端设备去激活所述EPS承载,并接收终端设备回复的去激活EPS承载上下文接受(deactivate EPS bearer context accept)消息,完成去激活所述EPS承载。
另外,为了避免去激活4G网络EPS承载影响终端设备的业务传输,终端设备可以在一段时间内没有上下行信令和数传包传输,网络设备主动释放链路让终端设备进入空闲态(IDLE)后,去激活4G网络EPS承载。
在另一种可能的实施中,终端设备去激活4G网络EPS承载可以由网络指示发起。
方式一:由移动管理网元发送去激活承载上下文请求并生成重新激活承载的指示信息。
示例的:如图7所示,对于在接入5G网络的能力被禁用后建立有4G网络EPS承载的终端设备,移动管理网元在图3所示S308的TAU流程中获知终端设备支持接入5G网络的能力,也即支持N1能力后,向第一网关网元发送删除承载命令(delete bearer command)消息,命令第一网关网元删除所述EPS承载;在接收到第一网关网元回复的删除承载请求(delete bearer request)消息后,向终端设备发送包括用于指示所述终端设备重新激活承载(reactivation requested)的指示信息的去激活承载上下文请求(deactivate bearer context request)消息,终端设备在接收到去激活承载上下文请求消息后,去激活所述EPS承载,并向移动管理网元回复去激活EPS承载上下文接受(deactivate EPS bearer context accept)消息,移动管理网元向第一网关网元发送删除承载响应(delete bearer response)消息,完成删除所述EPS承载。
需要理解的是,上述删除EPS承载,也可以称为去激活EPS承载;同样上述去激活EPS承载,也可以称为删除EPS承载。上述去激活EPS承载和删除EPS承载含义相同均为终止EPS承载的激活状态,去激活和删除仅是在不同消息和/或不同网元中所用的不同描述。
方式二:由第一网关网元发送删除承载请求并生成重新激活承载的指示信息。
示例的:如图8所示,对于在接入5G网络的能力被禁用后建立有4G网络EPS承载的终端设备,移动管理网元在图3所示S308的TAU流程中获知终端设备支持接入5G网 络的能力,也即支持N1能力后,向第一网关网元发送第四消息,所述第四消息包括所述终端设备支持接入5G网络的能力的信息;第一网关网元接收到第四消息后,获知终端设备支持接入5G网络的能力。在图3所示S308的TAU流程完成后,第一网关网元向移动管理网元发送包括重新激活承载(reactivation requested)的指示信息的删除承载请求(delete bearer request)消息,请求移动管理网元删除所述没有关联PDU会话参数的EPS承载,进而移动管理网元向终端设备发送包括用于指示所述终端设备重新激活承载(reactivation requested)的指示信息的去激活承载上下文请求(deactivate bearer context request)消息,终端设备在接收到去激活承载上下文请求消息后,去激活所述EPS承载,并向移动管理网元回复去激活承载上下文接受(deactivate bearer context accept)消息,移动管理网元向第一网关网元发送删除承载响应(delete bearer response)消息,完成删除所述EPS承载。
作为一种示例,所述第四消息可以为修改承载请求(modify bearer request)消息。
另外,在3GPP TS 24.301协议中规定,通过原因值“39”触发终端设备(如UE)本地释放EPS承载,并再次发起PDN连接建立请求,对原因值39的处理,3GPP TS 24.301协议描述为“If the DEACTIVATE EPS BEARER CONTEXT REQUEST includes ESM cause #39"reactivation requested"and the EPS bearer context is a default EPS bearer context,and the UE provided an APN for the establishment of the PDN connection,the UE shall stop timer T3396if it is running for the APN provided by the UE.The UE should then re-initiate the UE requested PDN connectivity procedure for the same APN as the deactivated default EPS bearer context to reactivate the EPS bearer context”。因此,在本申请中图7或图8中去激活承载上下文请求消息携带的重新激活承载的指示信息可以采用原因值“39”指示。
回到图5,S502:所述终端设备向移动管理网元发送PDN连接请求消息,所述PDN连接请求消息包括所述EPS承载关联的PDU会话标识信息。
终端设备去激活4G网络EPS承载后,向移动管理网元发送PDN连接请求(PDN connectivity request)消息,由于终端设备已经支持接入5G网络的能力(即N1能力),因此会生成并在PDN连接请求消息中携带所述EPS承载关联的PDU会话标识信息。移动管理网元接收到终端设备发送的包括所述PDU会话标识信息的PDN连接请求(PDN connectivity request)消息后,向第二网关网元发送包含所述PDU会话标识信息的创建会话请求(create session request)消息。
第二网关网元接收到包括所述PDU会话标识信息的创建会话请求消息后,根据所述PDU会话标识信息为终端设备对应的4G网络EPS承载分配PDU会话参数,并通过创建会话响应(create session response)消息发送给移动管理网元。其中所述PDU会话参数包括S-NSSAI、QoS流描述、QoS规则、session-AMBR等中的一项或多项。
S503:所述终端设备接收来自所述移动管理网元的激活承载上下文请求消息,所述激活承载上下文请求消息包括为所述EPS承载分配的PDU会话参数。
例如,移动管理网元接收到第二网关网元发送的创建会话响应消息后,通过激活承载上下文请求消息,将包含为终端设备的4G网络EPS承载分配的PDU会话参数发送给终端设备。
作为一种示例,所述激活承载上下文请求消息可以为激活默认承载上下文请求(activate default bearer context request)消息。
在一种可能的实施中,终端设备接收到激活承载上下文请求消息后,还可以告知网络 4G网络EPS承载激活成功。具体的,终端设备可以向移动管理网元发送激活默认承载上下文接受(activate default bearer context accept)消息,告知移动管理网元已激活4G网络EPS承载,移动管理网元还可以通过修改承载请求(modify bearer request)消息告知第二网关网元终端设备4G网络EPS承载激活成功,并接收第二网关网元回复的修改承载响应(modify bearer response)消息。
终端设备获得4G网络EPS承载关联PDU会话参数后,当终端设备异系统移动到5G网络后,可以根据所述PDU会话参数,将4G网络EPS承载无缝转换(或映射)到5G网络PDU会话的QoS flow,避免终端设备业务的中断。
另外,需要理解的是,上述各网元(如终端设备、移动管理网元、网关网元等)之间交互的消息的名称仅为一种示例,本申请实施例中,并不限定上述各网元(如终端设备、移动管理网元、网关网元等)之间交互的消息的名称。
