Description

呼叫方法、装置及系统
本申请要求于2020年9月30日提交中国国家知识产权局、申请号为202011066366.0、申请名称为“呼叫方法、装置及系统”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
本申请实施例涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及呼叫方法、装置及系统。
背景技术
在因特网协议(internet protocol,IP)多媒体子系统(IP multimedia subsystem,IMS)网络中,用户设备可能从自己的归属区域移动到其他区域,该其他区域可以称为漫游区域,如果用户设备在漫游区域发起呼叫信令,则漫游区域中接收相关呼叫消息的会话控制功能设备得把呼叫消息路由到用户设备的归属区域,以触发归属区域中的应用服务器(application server,AS)为用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,如彩铃业务、广告视频业务、短信业务等,然后再把呼叫消息路由到被叫用户设备。
如此导致处于漫游状态的用户设备与归属地AS之间的端到端时延较大,降低了呼叫增值业务的用户体验,例如在看彩铃广告过程可能会出现卡顿的现象。
发明内容
本申请实施例提供一种呼叫方法、装置及系统,以解决漫游到归属地之外的用户设备与用户设备的归属地AS之间的端到端时延较大,以及AS的网络资源利用率较低的问题。
为达到上述目的,本申请实施例采用如下技术方案:

具体实施方式
在介绍本申请实施例之前,对本申请实施例涉及的相关技术术语进行解释说明。需要说明的是,这些解释说明是为了让本申请实施例更容易被理解,而不应该视为对本申请实施例所要求的保护范围的限定。
IMS网络,是一个基于因特网协议(internet protocol,IP)网提供语音及多媒体业务的网络体系架构,能够满足现在的终端客户对更新颖和更多样化多媒体业务的需求。IMS网络具有如下特征:采用会话初始协议(session initiation protocol,SIP)作为呼叫控制协议,基于SIP实现了呼叫控制和业务控制的分离,并增强了多媒体支持能力;通过归属控制,即使用户设备漫游到外地,也可以使用到与归属区域同样的服务。
漫游是指用户设备从自己的注册区域/归属区域移动到注册区域/归属区域之外的其他区域。用户设备的注册区域/归属区域之外的网络区域可以称为用户设备的漫游区域或拜访区域或者漫游地或者拜访地,其中的通信网络称为拜访公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)(简称VPLMN)。本申请实施例中,用户设备的归属区域可以称为归属地,用户设备的归属区域的通信网络可以称为用户设备的归属公共陆地移动网络(home public land mobile network,HPLMN)(简称HPLMN)。
其中,处于漫游区域的用户设备可以通过图1a所示方式或者图1b所示方式接入用户设备的归属区域的IMS网络,使用归属区域的IMS网络提供的呼叫增值业务。参照图1a所示,漫游区域提供包括数据网关以及边界网关(border gateway,BG)的数据通道,用户设备可以通过数据通道与归属区域的数据网关(如分组数据网络(packet data network,PDN)网关(PDN gateway,P-GW))互通,通过归属区域的数据网关访问归属区域的IMS网络,使用归属区域中的呼叫增值业务。参照图1b所示,漫游区域的代理-呼叫会话控制功能(proxy-call session control function,P-CSCF)设备与归属区域的IMS网络互通,用户设备可以通过漫游区域的P-CSCF设备接入用户设备的归属区域,使用归属区域中的呼叫增值业务。
现有技术中,用户设备在其漫游区域中发起呼叫请求,但发出的呼叫请求可以通过图1a或者图1b所示方式被路由到用户设备的归属区域的IMS网络中,由用户设备的归属区域的IMS网络为用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,无法实现由漫游区域中的IMS为漫入的用户设备提供呼叫增值业务。例如,如图2所示,为用户设备UE1呼叫用户设备UE2的流程示意图,UE1在漫游区域向P-CSCF设备发送invite消息后,漫游区域的P-CSCF设备把invite消息路由到UE1的归属区域的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备,由UE1的归属区域的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备将invite消息路由到UE1的归属区域的IMS网络中,触发UE1的归属区域的AS为UE1提供呼叫增值业务,同时,把invite消息进一步路由到UE2进行呼叫接续。
图2所示的呼叫方式中,漫游到归属区域之外的用户设备UE1只能使用UE1的归属地应用服务器(application servicer,AS)提供的呼叫增值业务。由于漫游到归属区域之外的UE1与UE1的归属地AS距离较远,UE1与归属地AS之间的端到端时延较大,降低用户体验。同时,图2所示的呼叫方式中,UE1的归属地AS只能为本地UE提供呼叫增值业务,而不能为漫游到归属区域中的漫入UE提供呼叫增值业务,减少AS为UE提供服务的机会,降低网络资源利用率。
为解决上述技术问题,本申请实施例提供一种呼叫方法,包括:第一CSCF设备接收包含第一呼叫信令的第一通信消息,该第一呼叫信令的发起方或者呼叫方为第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备,第一CSCF设备基于第一通信消息使第一呼叫信令被路由到漫入用户设备的漫游地AS,该漫游地AS为第一CSCF设备的归属区域中具备为用户设备提供呼叫增值业务的能力的AS。如此,可以由漫入用户设备的漫游地AS为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,使漫入用户设备使用漫游区域中的呼叫增值业务。由于漫游到归属区域之外的用户设备与用户设备的漫游区域中的漫游地AS距离较近,由用户设备的漫游区域中的漫游地AS为用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,由于漫入用户设备与漫游地AS之间的距离较近,用户设备与漫游地AS之间的端到端时延较低,可以提高用户体验。同时,本申请实施例提供的呼叫方法中,应用服务器不仅可以为本地用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,而且可以为漫游到归属区域中的漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,增加AS为用户设备提供服务的机会,提高网络资源利用率。
本申请实施例中,漫入用户设备可以是一个用户设备,该用户设备是从用户设备的归属区域(如HPLMN)漫游到用户设备的归属区域之外的区域(如另一个PLMN)的用户设备。从用户设备角度,归属区域之外的区域可以称为该用户设备的漫游区域或者拜访区域或者HPLMN或者漫游地,从归属区域之外的区域中设备(如P-CSCF设备或者AS或分组数据网关(packet gataway,PGW)等)角度,该用户设备可以称为归属区域之外的区域中的设备的漫入用户设备,从用户设备的归属区域(如HPLMN)中的设备角度,该用户设备可以称为“漫出”用户设备。例如,假设UE1的归属区域中为区域1,如果UE1漫游到区域2中,区域2与区域1不同,则从UE1的角度,区域1可以称为UE1的归属区域,区域2可以称为UE1的漫游区域或者漫游地或拜访地,从区域2中的P-CSCF角度,UE1可以称为P-CSCF设备的漫入用户设备。
本申请实施例中,漫游地AS可以指漫入用户设备的漫游区域中的AS,归属地AS可以指漫入用户设备的归属区域中的AS。
本申请实施例中,呼叫增值业务是指在呼叫业务的上下文环境(包括通话前、通话期间或通话后)中,由某个应用服务器向参加该呼叫业务的用户设备(可为主叫、也可以为被叫)在所述呼叫业务之外提供的补充业务;具体地,该补充业务可以由所述用户设备上的呼叫业务应用(Application,APP,例如,电话通讯应用,telephony APP)使用或消费,也可以由与所述用户设备的呼叫业务应用相关联的应用(如外挂应用、嵌套应用等)使用或消费;具体地,该补充业务可以包括但不限于媒体类业务、消息业务;如果该补充业务是媒体类业务,所述应用服务器可以基于呼叫信令,触发所述用户设备上的呼叫业务应用呈现媒体内容,其中,媒体内容可以是游戏内容、彩铃内容、来电显示内容等。如果改补充业务是消息业务,所述应用服务器可以基于呼叫信令,向所述用户设备上发送视频通知、短信通知(如第五代(5th generation,5G)消息)等;
本申请实施例中,媒体内容的格式可以包括但不限于视频内容、音频内容、超文本标记语言(hyper text markup language,HTML)页面、联合图像专家组(joint photographic experts group,JPEG)图片、图像互动格式(graphics interchange format,GIF)动画。如果格式为音频内容,则上述呈现媒体内容是指在用户设备播放音频内容,如果格式为视频内容、HTML页面、JPEG图片、GIF动画等,则上述呈现媒体内容是指在用户设备渲染(render)或显示(display)视频内容、HTML页面、JPEG图片、GIF动画等。
本申请实施例中,呼叫业务可以指用户设备以主叫身份或者被叫身份参与,经通信网络接续与其他呼叫设备(如上述被叫方)之间进行的语音通话业务或视频通话业务,例如,呼叫业务可以为用户设备拨打手机号码、办公座机号码或客服中心号码而进行的语音通话业务或者视频业务,再如,呼叫业务可以为用户设备接收手机、办公座机或客服中心呼叫而进行的语音通话业务或者视频业务。
例如,以UE1呼叫UE2,AS为UE1提供呼叫增值业务为例,可以在UE1拨打UE2的手机号码-呼叫请求到达UE2之时或者之前的阶段由AS触发UE1在呼叫业务相关的APP界面呈现媒体内容、游戏内容等,可以在呼叫请求到达UE2-UE2振铃-UE2摘机的阶段由AS触发UE1在呼叫业务相关的APP界面呈现媒体内容、游戏内容等,还可以在UE2摘机-UE1与UE2双方进入通话的阶段由AS触发UE1在呼叫业务相关的APP界面提供媒体内容、游戏内容等。
下面结合说明书附图对本申请实施例提供的呼叫方法进行描述。
本申请实施例提供的呼叫方法可以应用于图3所示的网络架构,如图3所示,该网络架构可以包括:用户设备(user equipment,UE)、多个IMS网络,多个IMS网络可以包括用户设备注册的IMS网络,每个IMS网络可以包括P-CSCF设备、查询-呼叫会话控制功能(interrogating-call session control function,I-CSCF)设备、服务-呼叫会话控制功能(serving-call session control function,S-CSCF)设备、以及AS,还可以包括接入网设备、会话边界控制器(session border controller,SBC)以及归属用户服务器(home subscriber,HSS)等其他设备,不予限制。例如,图3所示的网络架构包括UE1、UE2、UE3等多个UE、接入网设备10、SBC11、P-CSCF设备12、接入网设备20、P-CSCF设备21、SBC31、IMS网络1、IMS网络2以及IMS网络3,IMS网络1包括I-CSCF设备13、S-CSCF设备14以及AS15,IMS网络2包括I-CSCF设备22、S-CSCF设备23以及AS24,IMS网络3包括I-CSCF设备33、S-CSCF设备34以及AS35。

图4为本申请实施例提供的一种呼叫方法的流程图,如图4所示,该方法假设用户设备漫游到第一CSCF设备所在区域(或归属区域),成为第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备,并且以主叫身份或被叫身份参与呼叫业务,该方法包括如下步骤:
S401:第一CSCF设备接收第一通信消息。
具体地,第一通信消息为主叫方(caller/calling party,也称为发起方,originating party)发起的用于呼叫被叫方(callee/called party,也称为接收方或终接方,terminating party)的通信消息,如SIP消息,也可以称为呼叫消息或者访问消息。第一通信消息包括主叫方发起的第一呼叫信令,该第一呼叫信令可以为SIP Invite信令,该第一呼叫信令可以包括主叫方的信息以及被叫方的信息。第一通信消息还可以包括其他信息,如还可以包括用于指示第一呼叫信令对应的呼叫业务(如语音呼叫业务或者视频呼叫业务)的媒体类型的内容类型(content-Type)头域、用于标识第一呼叫信令所经过的设备的路由相关字段以及消息体,路由相关字段可以包括但不限于经由(via)头域、联系(contact)头域或者记录路由(record-route)/路由(route)头域,消息体可以包括会话描述信息,会话描述信息包括媒体内容堵的信息,如媒体内容的传输方式、编解码方式等。
具体地,主叫方的信息用于指示主叫方或标识第一呼叫信令的发起方,包括主叫方的号码或者主叫方的国际移动用户识别码(internation mobile subscriber identification,IMSI)或第一通信消息的来源地址等,可以携带在第一通信消息的来自(from)头域或者断言身份(P-Asserted-Identity,PAI)头域中。
具体地,被叫方的信息可以用于指示被叫方或标识第一呼叫信令的接收方,包括被叫方的电话号码、IMSI或第一通信消息的目标地址等,可以携带在第一通信消息的to头域中。
具体地,第一CSCF设备可以为图3中的P-CSCF设备12或者P-CSCF设备21或者P-CSCF设备32。第一呼叫信令的主叫方或者被叫方都可能是第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备。
具体地,第一CSCF设备接收第一通信消息的示例性方法如下:
1)在第一呼叫信令的主叫方是第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备的情况下,则第一CSCF设备直接或间接从主叫方接收第一通信消息,例如通过主叫方与第一CSCF设备之间的中间网元接收第一通信消息,该中间网元可以为接入网设备、SBC等。以图3为例,假设主叫方为UE1,UE1从接入网设备10的覆盖区域移动到接入网设备20的覆盖区域,如果第一CSCF设备为P-CSCF设备21,则中间网元为接入网设备20,如果第一CSCF设备为P-CSCF设备32,则中间网元为接入网设备20、SBC31。
2)在第一呼叫信令的被叫方是第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备的情况下,则第一CSCF设备直接或间接从被叫方的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备接收第一通信消息,被叫方的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备可以为被叫方的归属区域中的I-CSCF设备或者S-CSCF设备。以图3为例,假设被叫方为UE2,UE2的归属区域为接入网设备10的覆盖区域,则UE2的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备为图3中的I-CSCF设备14或者S-CSCF设备15。
应理解,本申请实施例中的第一呼叫信令除了可以是SIP Invite之外,还可以是漫入用户设备与其他呼叫设备之间的呼叫业务相关的其他呼叫信令,例如,还可以是表一所示的信令;但为了叙述方便,本申请实施例主要以SIP-Invite为例描述相关方案,将不再赘述。
表一
呼叫信令
主叫启呼信令:Invite
被叫忙信令:486(Busy Here reason=17)
被叫关机信令:487(Request Terminated reason=31)
被叫无应答信令:408(Request Timeout reason=19)
被叫不可及信令:480(Temporarily unavailable reason=18)
被叫等待信令:180(携带alert-info头域)
被叫呼转信令:181或者183(携带前转信息)
被叫振铃信令:180
被叫摘机信令:200OK-invite
主叫挂机信令:bye(leg=1)
被叫挂机信令:bye(leg=2)
需要说明的是,表一仅为示例性表格,本申请实施例不限定第一呼叫信令为哪种类型的信令,除表一所示信令之外,第一呼叫信令还可以是其他信令。
S402:第一CSCF设备基于第一通信消息使第一呼叫信令被路由到漫入用户设备的漫游地AS,漫游地AS为第一CSCF设备的归属区域中具备为用户设备提供呼叫增值业务的能力的AS。
S402中所述的呼叫增值业务的相关描述可参照上文所述,不予赘述。示例性的,第一CSCF设备基于第一通信消息使第一呼叫信令被路由到漫入用户设备的漫游地AS可以包括:第一CSCF设备基于第一通信消息确定第一呼叫信令的主叫方或者被叫方为第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备,直接向漫游地AS发送包含第一呼叫信令的第二通信消息;或者,第一CSCF设备通过第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备使第一呼叫信令被路由到漫入用户设备的漫游地AS,如漫入用户设备为图3中的UE1,UE1的漫游地AS为图3中的AS24或AS25,图4中S402(a)-S402(c)所示,分别描述如下:
S402(a):第一CSCF设备基于第一通信消息确定第一呼叫信令的主叫方或被叫方为第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备。
示例性的,在第一呼叫信令的主叫方为第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备的情况下,第一CSCF设备可以根据第一通信消息中的from头域或者PAI头域携带的主叫方的信息确定主叫方的归属区域,进而确定主叫方的归属区域与第一CSCF的归属区域不同,从而确定第一呼叫信令的主叫方为第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备,反之,则确定主叫方处于自己的归属区 域中,不是漫入用户设备。
例如,以主叫方的信息为主叫方的手机号135XXXX4308为例,第一CSCF设备可以根据主叫方的手机号、以及下表二所示的手机号码中标识归属区域的号码段与归属区域之间的对应关系确定主叫方的手机号码段对应的归属区域为区域1。
表二
号码段 归属区域
135XXXX 区域1
135YYYY 区域2
示例性地,在第一呼叫信令的被叫方为第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备的情况下,第一CSCF设备可以根据第一通信消息中的to头域携带的被叫方的信息确定被叫方的归属区域,进而确定被叫方的归属区域与第一CSCF的归属区域不同,从而确定被叫方为第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备,反之,则确定被叫方处于自己的归属区域中。
进一步的,执行S402(b)。
具体地,第一CSCF设备确定第一呼叫信令的主叫方或被叫方为漫入用户设备之后,执行S402(b)之前,所述方法还可以包括:第一CSCF设备确定漫入用户设备具备使用第一CSCF设备的归属区域(也就是漫入用户设备的漫游区域)中的AS提供的呼叫增值业务的能力。如此,在确定漫入用户设备支持漫游区域的AS提供的呼叫增值业务的情况下,才触发漫游地的AS为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,避免因漫入用户设备不支持漫游地的AS提供的呼叫增值业务,导致无法使用漫游地的呼叫增值业务、进而影响用户体验的问题。
示例性地,第一CSCF设备可以从第一通信消息获取漫入用户设备的能力信息,也可以向HSS等设备请求获得漫入用户设备的能力信息。
示例性的,第一CSCF设备可以根据根据配置策略和/或漫入用户设备的能力信息确定漫入用户设备具备使用第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的AS提供的呼叫增值业务的能力。
具体地,配置策略可以用于确定具备使用第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的AS提供的呼叫增值业务的能力的漫入用户设备。配置策略可以包括漫入用户设备对应的接入信息,如包括漫入用户设备的接入网设备信息、小区位置信息、接入网络类型等配置信息中的一种或者多种信息。配置策略可以预先存储在第一CSCF设备上或者由第一CSCF设备从其他设备(如HSS)获取,不予限制。如果漫入用户设备的接入信息满足配置策略的规定和/或漫入用户设备的能力信息指示漫入用户设备具备处理漫游区域的AS提供的呼叫增值业务的能力(如媒体内容解码能力、网络能力或者存储能力等),则确定漫入用户设备具备使用第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的AS提供的呼叫增值业务的能力。
具体地,接入网设备信息可以用于标识接入网设备,为接入网设备的因特网(internet protocol,IP)地址或者媒体接入控制(midia access control,MAC)地址等。
具体地,小区位置信息可以用于标识某个小区,小区位置信息可以为小区的物理小区标识符(physical cell identifier,PCI)或者小区全球标识符(cell global identifier,CGI)。
具体地,接入网络类型可以用于指示接入网络所采用的无线接入技术(radio access technology,RAT)或固定接入技术。RAT可以包括蓝牙接入、无线保真(wireless-fidelity,wifi)接入、新无线(new radio,NR)接入、长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)接入中任一种接入技术,固定接入技术可以包括局域网(local area network,LAN)技术、无线局 域网(wirele local area network,WALN)技术、各种类型数字用户线路(digital subscribe line,xDSL)技术或者xPON技术等。
可选地,第一CSCF设备可以从漫入用户设备的接入设备获取漫入用户设备的能力信息和接入信息。
应理解,本申请其他实施例中的漫入用户设备的接入信息、漫入用户设备的能力信息可参照上面的相关描述,将不赘述。
S402(b):第一CSCF设备响应于S402(a)的确定结果,向第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备发送第二通信消息。
具体地,第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备可以是第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的I-CSCF设备或者S-CSCF设备。
具体地,第二通信消息可以为SIP消息,第二通信消息可以包括现有通信消息(如第一通信消息)所包括的参数,如包括第一呼叫信令、路由相关字段、消息体等等。除此之外,第二通信消息还可以包括第一指示信息。第一指示信息的名称不限定,可以称为“漫入标识”或者“路由标识”或者“flag1”,都可以用于指示(indicate)第一呼叫信令的主叫方或被叫方为第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备,以便第二CSCF设备根据第一指示信息,确定第一呼叫信令的主叫方或被叫方为漫入用户设备,触发漫入用户设备的漫游地AS为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务。
进一步的,第一指示信息还可以指示使第一呼叫信令或者第一呼叫信令对应的呼叫业务的第二呼叫信令被路由到漫入用户设备的漫游地AS。其中,呼叫业务如上文所述,本申请实施例中呼叫业务的呼叫信令可以包括第一呼叫信令以及第二呼叫信令,呼叫业务的第二呼叫信令是指除第一呼叫信令之外的与该呼叫业务有关的其他呼叫信令或者第一呼叫信令之后传输的其他呼叫信令,如第二呼叫信令可以包括上述表一所示的信令。例如假设第一通信消息中包含的第一呼叫信令为SIP Invite,则该对应的呼叫业务的第二呼叫信令可以是被叫忙信令、被叫关机信令、被叫无应答信令、被叫不可及信令、被叫等待信令、被叫呼转信令、被叫振铃信令、被叫摘机信令、主叫挂机信令、被叫挂机信令。
应理解,第一指示信息实质上是一种“路由指示信息”,该路由指示信息可以改变主叫方以及被叫方之间传输的呼叫业务的呼叫信令所经历的呼叫路线,该呼叫路线会经过漫入用户设备的漫游地AS,使得呼叫业务的呼叫信令路由到漫入用户设备的漫游地AS,以使漫入用户设备的漫游地AS有机会为漫入用户提供呼叫增值业务,例如,在呼叫业务过程中触发漫入用户设备呈现媒体内容。该呼叫业务的首个呼叫信令(如起呼时的Invite消息)所经历的呼叫路线确定后,呼叫业务对应的后续呼叫信令可以按照该呼叫路线进行传输。
为了确定呼叫业务的首个呼叫信令(如起呼时的Invite消息)所经历的呼叫路线、使呼叫业务对应的后续呼叫信令可以按照该呼叫路线进行传输时,该呼叫路线上的各个设备可以将第一指示信息与第一呼叫信令对应的呼叫业务或通信会话对应存储,这样,在后续收到对应同一呼叫业务或通信会话的其他呼叫信令后,可以根据存储的对应关系获取到第一指示信息,再根据第一指示信息确定将第一呼叫信令路由到漫游地AS。
例如,以主叫方为第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备,主叫方向被叫方发送SIP Invite为例,通过第一指示信息可以将SIP Invite的原本路线:(主叫方-主叫方的漫游区域中的第一CSCP设备-主叫方的归属区域的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备-被叫方)更改为下述路线:(主 叫方-主叫方的漫游区域中的第一CSCP设备-主叫方的漫游区域的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备-主叫方的漫游地AS-主叫方的漫游区域的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备-主叫方的归属区域的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备-被叫方)。其中更改后的路线的主叫方的漫游区域中的第一CSCP设备、主叫方的漫游区域的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备、主叫方的漫游地AS、主叫方的漫游区域的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备、主叫方的归属区域的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备等可以将第一指示信息与第一呼叫信令对应的呼叫业务或通信会话对应存储,例如,将第一指示信息与呼叫业务标识或者通信会话标识对应存储。
具体地,上述更改后路线的各个设备可以采用下述方式一或者方式二将第一指示信息携带在通信消息(如第二通信消息或者其他通信消息)中:
方式一、通过通信消息中新的头域携带第一指示信息,例如,该新的头域可以为输入拜访指示头域(P-visted-incoming-indication)。
方式二、通过通信消息中已存在的头域的属性携带第一指示信息,例如,在已有的P-Access-Network-Info头域的属性中包含漫游漫入指示(roam-incoming-indication),roam-incoming-indication的取值标识第一呼叫信令的主叫方或被叫方为是否是漫入用户设备。
例如,如下字段所示,P-Access-Network-Info头域中除包括现有字段外,还包括roam-incoming-indication=1,表示第一呼叫信令的主叫方或被叫方为漫入用户设备:
P-Access-Network-Info:
3GPP-E-UTRAN;utran-cell-id-3gpp=46001251C6042203;roam-incoming-indication=1;
ue-ip=[2408:8556:41C:B3BF:7BDA:1BDD:2241:5983];ue-port=43518;network-provided。
一种示例中,在第一CSCF设备与I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备独立部署的情况下,第一CSCF设备向第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的AS发送第二通信消息可以包括:第一CSCF设备向第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备发送第二通信消息,第二CSCF设备可以为第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备;第二CSCF设备接收第二通信消息,向第一CSCF的归属地AS发送第二通信消息。
该示例中,由于第一呼叫信令的主叫方或被叫方为第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备,漫入用户设备未在第一CSCF设备的归属区域中进行注册,故第一CSCF设备上不存在漫入用户设备的注册信息,第一CSCF设备无法在本地找到漫入用户设备注册的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备。鉴于此,第一CSCF设备可以随机地从第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的多个CSCF设备中选择出一个CSCF设备作为第二CSCF设备,或者,依据负载均衡原则,在第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的多个CSCF设备中,选择负载最小或者负载小于预设阈值的CSCF设备作为第二CSCF设备。其中,预设阈值可以根据需要设置,不予限制。
具体的,第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的多个CSCF设备可以是第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的多个I-CSCS设备或者S-CSCF设备。
具体地,选择负载最小的CSCF设备作为第二CSCF设备可以包括:如果第一通信消息携带的第一呼叫信令为第一CSCF设备接收到的第M个第一呼叫信令,则选择第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的M个CSCF设备中的第i个CSCF设备作为第二CSCF设备,i=MmodN,M、N为大于等于1的整数。
例如,以第二CSCF设备为I-CSCF设备为例,第一CSCF设备的归属区域中有5个I-CSCF 设备为例,第一CSCF设备可以将接收到第一个第一呼叫信令携带在通信消息中发送给第1个I-CSCF设备,将接收到的第二个第一呼叫信令携带在通信消息中发送给第2个I-CSCF设备,将接收到的第3个第一呼叫信令携带在通信消息中发送给第3个I-CSCF设备,将接收到的第4个第一呼叫信令携带在通信消息中发送给第4个I-CSCF设备,以此类推,将接收到的第5个第一呼叫信令携带在通信消息中发送给第5个I-CSCF设备,将第6个第一呼叫信令携带在通信消息中发送给第1个I-CSCF设备,将第8个第一呼叫信令携带在通信消息中发送给第3个I-CSCF设备。
可选地,第二通信消息中还可以包含第二CSCF设备的地址信息,如第二通信消息的路由相关字段中包含第二CSCF设备的地址信息,以便第二CSCF设备的上一跳根据第二CSCF设备的地址信息使第一呼叫信令或者第一呼叫信令对应的呼叫业务的第二呼叫信令被路由到第二CSCF设备。
S402(c):第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备接收第一CSCF设备发送的第二通信消息,基于第二通信消息使第一呼叫信令被路由到漫入用户设备的漫游地AS。
示例性的,第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备根据第二通信消息包括的第一指示信息,确定第一呼叫信令的主叫方或被叫方为第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备,向漫入用户设备的漫游地AS发送第二通信消息。进一步的,如上所述,为了后续将呼叫业务的其他呼叫信令路由到漫游地AS,第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备可以将第一指示信息与第一呼叫信令对应的呼叫业务或通信会话对应存储。
由于第一呼叫信令的主叫方或被叫方为第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备,第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的HSS上不存在漫入用户设备的签约信息或者注册信息,故第二CSCF设备接收到第二通信消息时,不再通过与HSS进行信令交互来对漫入用户设备进行鉴权处理,而是直接进行初始过滤准则(initial filter criteria,iFC)触发逻辑,如第二CSCF设备可以遍历第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的每个AS,根据接收到的第二通信消息的头字段或者消息内容,检查该第二通信消息是否存在满足第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的AS(即漫入用户设备的漫游地AS)提供的触发条件,即进行iFC的判断,如果存在,则向第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的AS发送第二通信消息,以触发第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的AS向漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,如果不存在,就不发送第二通信消息,不触发第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的AS提供呼叫增值业务。
上述第二CSCF设备根据第二通信消息的头字段或者消息内容,检查该第二通信消息是否存在满足第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的AS设定的触发条件的过程可参照现有技术,不予赘述。例如,若某个漫入用户设备订阅了即使消息业务,则漫入用户设备发送的SIP消息的任何一个字段或消息体的内容及它们的组合存在满足即使消息服务器对应的触发条件。
需要说明的是,S402(b)-S402(c)所示过程可以应用于第一CSCF设备与第二CSCF设备分离部分的场景的,可替换的,在第二CSCF设备集中部署在第一CSCF设备的情况下,S402(b)-S402(c)可以替换为第一CSCF设备直接向漫入设备的漫游地AS发送第二通信消息。如第一CSCF设备接收第一通信消息,根据第一通信消息确定第一呼叫信令的主叫方或被叫方为漫入用户设备后,进行iFC触发逻辑,根据第一通信消息的头字段或者消息内容,确定第一通信消息存在的触发条件满足第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的哪个AS的触发条件,向该AS发送第二通信消息,触发该AS提供呼叫增值业务。
S403:漫入用户设备的漫游地AS(即第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的AS)接收第二通信消息,基于第二通信消息为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务。
其中,漫入用户设备的漫游地AS基于第二通信消息为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务的方式可以为下述方式一或者方式二:
方式一:漫入用户设备的漫游地AS根据第二通信消息中的第一指示信息确定第一呼叫信令的主叫方或被叫方为漫入用户设备,如果漫游地AS根据业务优先级处理策略确定由漫游地AS优先为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,则在接续呼叫之前,为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,完成与漫入用户设备之间漫游地业务逻辑。例如,漫游地AS可以在接续呼叫之前与漫入用户设备之间建立媒体通道,通过该媒体通道向漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务对应的媒体流,触发漫入用户设备在第一呼叫信令对应的呼叫业务相关的APP界面上呈现媒体内容、或游戏内容等,使用呼叫增值业务。
方式一中,漫游地AS可以在接续呼叫完成之前或接续呼叫过程中已经为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务。例如,以主叫方为漫入用户设备,呼叫业务为语音呼叫业务,呼叫增值业务为彩铃业务为例,可以在主叫方拨出电话号码--被叫方振铃之前的这段时间内,由漫游地AS为主叫方提供彩铃业务。
具体地,接续呼叫可以指漫游地AS向被叫方发出第一呼叫信令到第一呼叫信令到达被叫方的过程。在漫入用户设备为主叫方的情况下,接续呼叫可以包括图5所示S504-S507。在漫入用户设备为第一呼叫信令的被叫方的情况下,接续呼叫可以包括:漫入用户设备的漫游地AS向第一CSCF设备或者第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备发送第一呼叫信令。第一CSCF设备或者第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备接收第一呼叫信令,将第一呼叫信令发送给被叫方,至此接续呼叫完成。
具体地,业务优先级处理策略可以用于规定漫游地AS与归属地AS提供呼叫增值业务的优先级,可以用于规定由漫游地AS优先向漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,还是由归属地AS优先向漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务。业务优先级处理策略可以预先配置在漫游地AS、漫入用户设备的归属地AS,也可以由漫游地AS从其他设备获取,如从HSS获取等。
方式二、漫入用户设备的漫游地AS根据第二通信消息中的第一指示信息确定第一呼叫信令的主叫方或被叫方为漫入用户设备,如果漫游地AS根据业务优先级处理策略确定由漫游地AS优先为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,则将为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,应理解,此时,漫游地AS可以为提供呼叫增值业务进行传输配置信息等准备工作,并未向漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务。
进一步的,漫游地AS向第一CSCF设备或者第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备发送第三通信消息,实现呼叫接续。其中第三通信消息包含第一呼叫信令、第一指示信息以及第二指示信息,第二指示信息用于指示漫游地AS将为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务。需要说明的是,第二指示信息可以包含在第三通信消息中,也可以不包含在第三通信消息中,不予限制。
呼叫接续完成之后,从漫入用户设备的归属区域中的第三CSCF设备向第一CSCF设备或者第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备发送第五通信消息,第五通信消息包含第一指示信息;第一CSCF设备或者第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备根据第一指示信息,向漫游地AS发送第六通信消息,第六消息包括第一指示信息以及第三指示信 息。漫游地AS接收来自第一CSCF设备或者第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备的第六通信消息,第六通信消息包括第一指示信息。需要说明的是,第一CSCF设备或者第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备可以直接向漫游地AS发送第六通信消息,还可以通过中间设备向漫游地AS发送第六通信消息,不予限制。
进一步的,如果漫入用户设备的归属地AS根据业务优先级策略确定由归属地AS优先为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,则第五通信消息、第六通信消息还可以包含第三指示信息,第三指示信息用于指示漫入用户设备的归属地AS将为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务;反之,如果漫入用户设备的归属地AS根据业务优先级策略确定由漫游地AS优先为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,则第五通信消息、第六通信消息不包含第三指示信息。
进一步的,漫游地AS接收到的第六通信消息包括第三指示信息,则漫游地AS根据业务优先级处理策略以及第三指示信息,确定是否由漫游地AS优先为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,如果是,则为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,如果不是,则不提供。
进一步的,如上所述,为了后续将呼叫业务的其他呼叫信令路由到漫游地AS,漫游地AS可以将第一指示信息与第一呼叫信令对应的呼叫业务或通信会话对应存储。
基于图4所示方法,在确定第一呼叫信令的主叫方或者被叫方为第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备的情况下,使第一呼叫信令被路由到漫入用户设备的漫游地AS,由漫入用户设备的漫游地AS为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务。由于漫游到用户设备的归属区域之外的用户设备与其漫游地AS距离较近,由漫入用户设备的漫游地AS为该用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,由于漫入用户设备与漫游地AS之间距离较近,漫入用户设备与漫游地AS之间的端到端时延较低,提高用户体验。同时,本申请实施例提供的呼叫方法中,应用服务器不仅可以为本地主叫方提供呼叫增值业务,而且可以为漫游到归属区域中的漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,增加AS为主叫方提供服务的机会,提高网络资源利用率。
下面结合图5,以第一呼叫信令的主叫方为漫入用户设备,漫入用户设备的漫游地AS在接续呼叫之前已经为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务为例,对图4对应的实施例中所述的接续过程进行描述。第一呼叫信令的被叫方为漫入用户设备时的接续过程可参照现有技术,不予赘述。
图5为本申请实施例提供的一种呼叫方法的流程图,该方法包括S501-S507:
执行S501-S503。其中,S501-S503与图4中S401-S403相同,不予赘述。
S504:漫入用户设备的漫游地AS向第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备发送第三通信消息。
其中,上述第三通信消息可以包括第一呼叫信令、第一指示信息以及其他现有头域或者消息。
在接续呼叫的过程中,可能会触发漫入用户设备的归属地AS为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务。进一步的,为了避免漫入用户设备的漫游区域的AS以及漫入用户设备的归属地AS同时为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务带来的业务冲突的问题,第三通信消息还可以包括第二指示信息,以指示漫入用户设备的漫游地AS已经为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,以使得漫入用户设备的归属地AS根据第二指示信息获知漫入用户设备的漫游地AS已经为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,不触发归属地业务流程。
具体地,第二指示信息的名称不限定,可以称为“业务标识”或者“flag2”或者“漫游地业务 标识”。如果漫游地AS配置第二指示信息之前,已经为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,则第二指示信息可以如上文所述,指示漫游地AS已经为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,如果漫游地AS配置第二指示信息之前,确定可能为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,正在为提供呼叫增值业务做准备,则第二指示信息可以用于指示漫游地AS将漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务。类似的,参照第一指示信息的作用,如果归属地AS或者其他AS也确定可能会为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,则归属地AS或者其他AS也可以分配用于一指示信息,如第三指示信息,该第三指示信息可以指示归属地AS或者其他AS将为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务的指示信息,以使得接收到第三指示信息的AS根据第三指示信息获知归属地AS或者其他AS提供呼叫增值业务的情况,采用相应措施避免业务冲突。
以第二指示信息为例,应理解,第二指示信息实质上是一种“业务指示信息”,该业务指示信息可以避免漫入用户设备的归属区域中的归属地AS或者其他AS与漫游地AS之间的业务冲突。例如,本申请实施例中,第二指示信息可以按照第一呼叫信令的呼叫路线被路由到漫入用户设备的归属区域中的归属地AS或者其他AS,如第一呼叫信令的呼叫路线上的设备可以将第二指示信息携带在通信消息中路由到漫入用户设备的归属区域中的归属地AS或者其他AS,以便归属地AS或其他AS根据第二指示信息获知漫游地AS为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务情况,避免与漫游地AS业务冲突。
具体地,第一呼叫信令的呼叫路线上的各个设备可以采用下述方式一或者方式二或者方式三将第二指示信息携带在通信消息(如第三通信消息或者其他通信消息)中:
方式一、通过通信消息中新的头域携带第二指示信息,例如,该新的头域可以为输入业务指示头域(P-visited-service-indication)。
方式二、通过通信消息中已存在的头域的属性携带第二指示信息,例如,在已有的P-Asserted-Service-Info头域的属性中包含业务码(service-code),service-code的取值可以标识漫入用户设备的漫游地AS已经为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务。
方式三:通过通信消息的消息体携带第二指示信息,例如,在消息体中会话描述信息的媒体描述属性行增加第二指示信息:a=g.3gpp.rmas。
S505:第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备接收第三通信消息,向漫入用户设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备发送第四通信消息。
具体地,漫入用户设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备可以为漫入用户设备的归属区域中的I-CSCF设备或者S-CSCF设备。
其中,S505中所述的第四通信消息可以包括第三通信消息所包括的内容,如可以包括第一呼叫信令、第一指示信息以及第二指示信息等。
示例性的,第一CSCF设备的归属区域中的第二CSCF设备可以根据漫入用户设备的号码段确定漫入用户设备的归属区域,从漫入用户设备的归属区域中的HSS中获取漫入用户设备的签约信息,根据漫入用户设备的签约信息确定漫入用户设备的归属区域中的第三CSCF设备,向归属区域中的第三CSCF设备发送第四通信消息。本申请实施例中,第三CSCF设备可以包括漫入用户设备的归属区域中的I-CSCF设备或者S-CSCF设备或其他能够接收第四通信消息并将第四通信消息路由到归属地AS的设备。
进一步的,如上所述,为了后续将呼叫业务的其他呼叫信令按照呼叫路线到漫游地AS,漫入用户设备的归属区域中的第三CSCF设备可以将第一指示信息与第一呼叫信令对应的呼 叫业务或通信会话对应存储。
S506:漫入用户设备的归属区域中的第三CSCF设备接收第四通信消息,向漫入用户设备的归属地AS发送第七通信消息。
示例性的,漫入用户设备的归属地AS接收第七通信消息,与归属区域中的HSS交互获取归属地AS的iFC触发条件;查看第七通信消息中是否存在满足归属地AS的iFC触发条件,若满足,则向归属地AS发送第七通信消息。
进一步的,为了后续将呼叫业务的其他呼叫信令按照呼叫路线到漫游地AS,漫入用户设备的归属地AS可以将第一指示信息与第一呼叫信令对应的呼叫业务或通信会话对应存储。
S507:漫入用户设备的归属地AS接收第七通信消息,响应于第七通信消息,根据第七通信消息中的第二指示信息获知漫入用户设备的漫游地AS已经为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,不触发归属地业务流程。进一步的,漫入用户设备的归属地AS放通第一呼叫信令,将本次主叫方向被叫方发送的第一呼叫信令路由给被叫方,完成接续呼叫,同时,呼叫业务的呼叫信令所经历的呼叫路线打通。
需要说明的是,如果漫入用户设备的漫游地AS在由漫游地AS发起的接续呼叫之前没有向漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,而是确定自身准备或计划向漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,则漫游地AS发送的第三通信消息中包括的第二指示信息可以用于指示漫游地AS将为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务。后续,归属地AS接收到第二指示信息,可以根据业务优先级处理策略判断是由自己优先向漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务还是由漫游地AS优先,如果归属地AS优先,则用第三指示信息替换/覆盖第二指示信息,并将第三指示信息反馈给给漫游地AS,以便漫游地AS业务优先级处理策略以及第三指示信息最终确定由漫游地AS提供还是归属地AS提供;反之,如果漫游地AS优先,则归属地AS不触发归属地业务流程,接续呼叫。
进一步的,所述方法还包括:漫入用户设备的归属地AS基于第七通信消息使第一呼叫信令或者第一呼叫信令对应的呼叫业务的第二呼叫信令被路由至漫游地AS:
例如,在第一呼叫信令的主叫方是第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备,且归属地AS优先提供呼叫增值业务的情况下,漫入用户设备的归属地AS接收到来自被叫方的呼叫业务的第二呼叫信令/后续呼叫信令(如Invite消息对应的响应消息)后,根据第七通信消息中的第一指示信息向漫入用户设备的归属地区域中的第三CSCF设备发送包含呼叫业务的第二呼叫信令、第一指示信息和第三指示信息的第八通信消息,第三指示信息指示第二AS将为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务。在第一呼叫信令的主叫方是第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备,且漫游地AS优先提供呼叫增值业务的情况下,漫入用户设备的归属地AS接收到来自被叫方的呼叫业务的第二呼叫信令/后续呼叫信令(如Invite消息对应的响应消息)后,根据第七通信消息中的第一指示信息,向第三CSCF设备发送第八通信消息,第八通信消息包含呼叫业务的第二呼叫信令、第一指示信息。
又例如,在第一呼叫信令的被叫方是第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备,且归属地AS优先提供呼叫增值业务的情况下,漫入用户设备的归属地AS根据第七通信消息中的第一指示信息向漫入用户设备的归属地区域中的第三CSCF设备发送包含呼叫业务的第一呼叫信令、第一指示信息和第三指示信息的第八通信消息,第三指示信息指示第二AS将为漫入用户设 备提供呼叫增值业务。又例如,在第一呼叫信令的被叫方是第一CSCF设备的漫入用户设备,且漫游地AS优先提供呼叫增值业务的情况下,漫入用户设备的归属地AS接收到来自被叫方的呼叫业务的第一呼叫信令/后续呼叫信令(如Invite消息对应的响应消息)后,根据第七通信消息中的第一指示信息,向第三CSCF设备发送第八通信消息,第八通信消息包含呼叫业务的第一呼叫信令、第一指示信息。
进一步的,漫入用户设备的归属地区域中的第三CSCF设备根据存储的第一指示信息与呼叫业务或通信会话之间的对应关系,确定本次呼叫业务对应第一指示信息,根据第一指示信息将第八通信消息包含的内容路由给漫入用户设备的漫游区域中的P-CSCF设备或者I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备。
下面结合图6所示invite消息的流向图对图4所示方法进行描述,其中假设第一呼叫信令的主叫方UE1,UE1呼叫UE2,UE1的归属区域为区域1,UE1当前漫游到区域2,UE2的归属区域为区域3,用于指示第一呼叫信令的主叫方为漫入用户设备的指示信息命名为网络标识、用于指示AS将为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务的指示信息命名为业务标识。如图6所示的消息流向包括以下过程:
⑴UE1向区域2中的P-CSCF设备发送invite消息。
⑵P-CSCF设备根据invite消息的来自(from)头域,确定UE1为漫入用户设备,分配网络标识1,并向区域2中的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备发送网络标识1以及invite消息。
⑶区域2中的I-CSCF设备将接收到的网络标识1以及invite消息发送给S-CSCF设备。区域2中的S-CSCF设备完成iFC触发逻辑,向区域2中满足iFC触发条件的AS1发送网络标识1以及invite消息。
⑷AS1接收网络标识1以及invite消息,确定为漫入用户设备提供呼叫增值业务,则分配用于标识AS1将为UE1提供呼叫增值业务的业务标识1,向区域2中的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备发送网络标识1、业务标识1以及invite消息。
⑸区域2中的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备接收网络标识1、业务标识1以及invite消息,向区域1中的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备发送网络标识1、业务标识1以及invite消息。
⑹区域1中的I-CSCF设备将接收到的网络标识1、业务标识1以及invite消息发送给区域1中的S-CSCF设备,区域1中的S-CSCF设备完成iFC触发逻辑,向区域1中满足iFC触发条件的AS2发送网络标识1、业务标识1以及invite消息。
⑺区域1中满足iFC触发条件的AS2接收网络标识1、业务标识1以及invite消息,在根据业务优先级处理策略确定由AS2优先为UE1提供呼叫增值业务的情况下,则用业务标识2替换业务标识1,业务标识2用于指示AS2将为UE1提供呼叫增值业务,向区域1中的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备发送网络标识1、业务标识2以及invite消息。反之,在根据业务优先级处理策略确定由AS1优先为UE1提供呼叫增值业务的情况下,则向区域1中的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备发送网络标识1、业务标识1以及invite消息。
⑻区域1中的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备接收网络标识1、业务标识2以及invite消息,将invite消息发送给UE2,完成接续呼叫。后续,将网络标识1、业务标识2/业务标识1路由到UE1的漫游区域中的AS1,由AS1根据业务标识2/业务标识1以及业务优先级处理策略最终确定由AS1提供呼叫增值业务还是由AS2提供呼叫增值业务,以便UE1与最终提供呼叫增值业务的AS之间建立媒体通道,接收并呈现呼叫增值业务。
上述图6以第一呼叫信令的主叫方漫游到归属区域/注册区域之外的区域为例对本申请提供的呼叫方法进行了描述。类似的,当被叫方漫游到归属区域/注册区域之外的区域时,可以参照图4所示方法,将发送给被叫方的第一呼叫信令理由到被叫方的漫游区域的IMS网络中,由被叫方的漫游区域中的AS(即被叫方的漫游地AS)为被叫方提供呼叫增值业务。
下面结合图7所示invite消息的流向图对被叫方处于漫游区域时的处理流程进行描述,其中假设第一呼叫信令的被叫方为UE1,UE3呼叫UE1,UE1的归属区域为区域1,UE1当前漫游到区域2,用于指示第一呼叫信令的被叫方为漫入用户设备的指示信息命名为网络标识、用于指示AS将为被叫方提供呼叫增值业务的指示信息命名为业务标识。如图7所示的消息流向包括以下过程:
①:UE3向UE1的归属区域:区域1中的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备发送invite消息。
②:区域1中的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备接收invite消息,完成iFC触发逻辑,向区域1中满足iFC触发条件的AS3发送invite消息。
③:区域1中满足iFC触发条件的AS接收invite消息,在确定为UE1提供呼叫增值业务的情况下,分配业务标识3,向区域1中的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备发送业务标识3以及invite消息。
④:区域1中的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备接收业务标识3以及invite消息,向区域2中的P-CSCF设备发送业务标识3以及invite消息。
⑤:区域2中的P-CSCF设备接收业务标识3以及invite消息,根据invite消息的to头域,确定UE1为漫入用户设备,分配网络标识2,并向区域2中的I-CSCF设备发送网络标识2、业务标识3以及invite消息。
⑥:区域2中的I-CSCF设备将接收到的网络标识2、业务标识3以及invite消息发送给S-CSCF设备。区域2中的S-CSCF设备完成iFC触发逻辑,向区域2中满足iFC触发条件的AS4发送网络标识2、业务标识3以及invite消息。
⑦:区域2中的AS4接收网络标识2、业务标识3以及invite消息根据业务标识3以及业务优先级处理策略最终确定由AS3提供呼叫增值业务还是由AS4提供呼叫增值业务,以便UE1与最终提供呼叫增值业务的AS之间建立媒体通道,接收并呈现呼叫增值业务。同时,AS4将invite消息发送给区域2中的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备。
⑧:区域2中的I-CSCF设备/S-CSCF设备接收invite消息,向区域2中的P-CSCF设备发送invite消息。
⑨:区域2中的P-CSCF设备接收invite消息,向UE1发送invite消息,完成接续呼叫。
下面结合图3所示架构对主叫方的漫游地AS为主叫方提供呼叫增值业务的处理流程进行描述,其中假设第一呼叫信令为invite消息,主叫方为UE1,被叫方为UE2,UE1处于漫游区域,UE2处于归属区域,UE1的漫游区域中的AS1向UE1提供呼叫增值业务。
图8为本申请实施例提供的一种呼叫方法的流程图,该方法包括:
S801:UE1在漫游区域向漫游区域中的P-CSCF设备发送invite消息。
