技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种无线连接建立方法及其装置。
背景技术
第五代(5 th-generation,5G)通信系统中的无线连接可以是协议数据单元(protocol data unit,PDU)会话(session)的无线连接。PDU会话指的是用户设备(user equipment,UE)与数据网络(data network,DN)之间进行通信的过程,PDU会话的无线连接指的是UE与DN之间的数据传输通道。对于接入层(access stratum,SA)而言,PDU会话的无线连接可以包括UE与接入网之间以及接入网与用户面功能(user plane function,UPF)网元之间的数据传输通道。
5G系统按需建立PDU会话的无线连接,例如UE按照业务需求,建立与业务相关的PDU会话的无线连接。这种按需建立PDU会话的无线连接的机制,可能会增加时延。例如,UE与DN之间已建立数据业务的PDU会话的无线连接,但在通过该无线连接进行数据业务的传输过程中,UE发起主叫语音业务,需要建立语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接,从而增加呼叫时延。

结合第一方面,在某些可能的实现方式中,第一无线连接为非PDU会话的无线连接,第二无线连接为PDU会话的无线连接。非PDU会话的无线连接,例如信令连接。在用户设备发起或网络侧辅助发起建立信令连接时,接入管理网元可自动建立具有永久在线属性的PDU会话的无线连接,无需用户设备发起建立PDU会话的无线连接,从而减少PDU会话的无线 连接的建立时长。
结合第一方面,在某些可能的实现方式中,接入管理网元接收会话建立请求,会话建立请求用于请求建立PDU会话,该PDU会话对应的标识与指定标识列表匹配的情况下,接入管理网元记录该PDU会话具有永久在线属性,进而该PDU会话对应的无线连接也具有永久在线属性,以便在用户设备发起第一无线连接时,可触发第二无线连接的建立。
结合第一方面,在某些可能的实现方式中,该PDU会话对应的标识为数据网络名称(data network name,DNN),上述指定标识列表为指定DNN列表。可以理解的是,指定DNN列表所包括的DNN对应的无线连接具有永久在线属性。接入管理网元根据指定DNN列表判断无线连接是否具有永久在线属性,实现简便,准确性较高。

具体实施方式
为了更好地理解本申请实施例提供的技术方案,首先对本申请实施例涉及的技术术语进行介绍。
1、5G系统的网络架构
请参见图1,为5G系统的网络架构示意图,该网络架构包括UE、接入网(access network,AN)设备、核心网网元和DN。
其中,接入网设备也可以是无线接入网(radio access network,RAN)设备。接入网设备可以包括基站(base station,BS),可以是一种部署在无线接入网络中能够和终端设备进行无线通信的设备。其中,基站可能有多种形式,比如宏基站、微基站、中继站和接入点等。示例性地,本申请实施例涉及到的接入网设备可以是5G中的基站或长期演进(long term evolution,LTE)中的基站,其中,5G中的基站还可以称为发送接收点(transmission reception point,TRP)或下一代基站节点(next generation Node B,gNB)。

图1所示的网络架构示意图中,还包括各个网元之间的接口,例如N2表示AMF网元与RAN设备之间的接口。
2、PDU会话和PDU会话的无线连接
PDU会话,UE与DN之间进行通信的过程;PDU会话的无线连接,UE与DN之间的数据传输通道。可以理解的是,建立了PDU会话即建立了PDU的无线连接。对SA而言,PDU会话的无线连接可以包括UE与AN之间以及AN与UPF网元之间的数据传输通道。
示例性的,建立一个PDU会话的无线连接的流程可参见图2所示,图2所示的流程可以包括但不限于如下步骤:
步骤1,UE向AMF网元发送PDU会话建立请求。相应的,AMF网元接收来自UE的PDU会话建立请求。
UE通过向AMF网元发送PDU会话建立请求,发起PDU会话建立流程。PDU会话建立请求可以包括PDU会话标识(PDU session identify,PSI)。PDU会话建立请求可以是PDU Session Establishment Request。
UE可通过非接入层(non-access stratum,NAS)消息向AMF网元发送PDU会话建立请求,即UE向R(AN)发送PDU会话建立请求,R(AN)向AMF网元发送PDU会话建立请求。或,UE直接通过AS消息向AMF网元PDU会话建立请求。
步骤2,AMF网元选择SMF网元。
步骤3,AMF网元向SMF网元发送PDU会话上下文信息建立请求。相应的,SMF网元接收来自AMF网元的PDU会话上下文信息建立请求。
PDU会话上下文信息建立请求用于请求SMF网元建立PDU会话的上下文信息,可以是Nsmf_PDUSession_CreateSMContext Request。
步骤4,SMF网元从UDM网元获取订阅信息或更新订阅信息。
步骤5,SMF网元向AMF网元发送PDU会话上下文信息建立响应。相应的,AMF网元接收来自SMF网元的PDU会话上下文信息建立响应。
其中,PDU会话上下文信息建立响应用于响应PDU会话上下文信息建立请求,可以是Nsmf_PDUSession_CreateSMContext Response。
步骤6,SMF网元选择UPF网元。
步骤7,SMF网元与UPF网元创建N4会话。
步骤8,SMF网元向AMF网元发送N1N2转移消息。相应的,AMF网元接收来自SMF网元的N1N2转移消息。
其中,N1N2转移消息可以是Namf_Communication_N1N2MessageTransfer。
步骤9,AMF网元向R(AN)发送N2 PDU会话请求。相应的,R(AN)接收来自AMF网元的N2 PDU会话请求。
其中,N2 PDU会话请求可以是N2 PDU Session Request。N2 PDU会话请求为非接入层NAS消息。
步骤10,R(AN)与UE执行特殊资源建立。
在这个过程中,R(AN)向UE发送PDU会话建立接受,用于响应步骤1的PDU会话建立请求。PDU会话建立接受可以是PDU Session Establishment Accept。
步骤11,R(AN)向AMF网元发送N2 PDU会话响应。相应的,AMF网元接收来自R(AN)的N2 PDU会话响应。
其中,N2 PDU会话响应可以是N2 PDU Session Response。
5G系统中,UE的数据业务频繁,在数据业务处于连接态的过程中,UE发起主叫语音业务,需要建立语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接,该过程可参见图3所示,图3所示的流程可以包括但不限于如下步骤:
步骤301,UE向AMF网元发送第一PDU会话建立请求。相应的,AMF网元接收来自UE的第一PDU会话建立请求。
其中,第一PDU会话建立请求可携带上行数据状态(uplink data status)为PSI=1,用于指示请求建立数据业务的PDU会话的无线连接。
步骤302,AMF网元向SMF网元发送PDU会话上下文信息更新请求。相应的,SMF网元接收来自AMF网元的PDU会话上下文信息更新请求。
其中,PDU会话上下文信息更新请求用于请求SMF网元更新PDU会话的上下文信息,可以是Nsmf_PDUSession_UpdateSMContext Request。PDU会话上下文信息更新请求可携带PSI=1,用于指示数据业务的PDU会话。
步骤302与步骤3的不同之处在于,图2请求建立之前未建立过的PDU会话,因此步骤3为PDU会话上下文信息建立请求,而图3请求建立之前建立过的数据业务的PDU会话,因此步骤302为PDU会话上下文信息更新请求。
步骤303,建立第一PDU会话的无线连接。步骤303可参考图2中步骤4-步骤11的过程,在此不再赘述。
其中,第一PDU会话即数据业务的PDU会话。
步骤304,UE发送数据业务数据。UE通过第一PDU会话的无线连接,向数据业务对应的DN发送数据业务数据。
步骤305,UE向AMF网元发送第二PDU会话建立请求。相应的,AMF网元接收来自UE的第二PDU会话建立请求。
其中,第二PDU会话建立请求可携带uplink data status为PSI=2,用于指示请求建立语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接。
步骤306,AMF网元向SMF网元发送PDU会话上下文信息更新请求。相应的,SMF网元接收来自AMF网元的PDU会话上下文信息更新请求。
步骤306中的PDU会话上下文信息更新请求可携带PSI=2,用于指示语音业务的PDU会话。
步骤307,建立第二PDU会话的无线连接。步骤307可参考图2中步骤4-步骤11的过程,在此不再赘述。
其中,第二PDU会话即语音业务的PDU会话。
步骤308,UE发送IP多媒体子系统(IP multimedia subsystem,IMS)会话初始协议(session initiation protocol,SIP)信令数据。UE通过第二PDU会话的无线连接,向语音业务对应的DN发送IMS SIP业务数据。
图3中,步骤304为UE发起语音业务,若UE被呼叫,则UE在接收到来自AMF的网元的呼叫请求时,执行步骤304。
3、具有永久在线(always-on)属性的PDU会话
在第三代合作伙伴计划(3 rd-generation partnership project,3GPP)23.501中引入具有always-on属性的PDU会话,其定义为:每次从空闲态转换至连接态的过程中,具有always-on属性的PDU会话需要获取用户面资源。
在建立第一PDU会话的无线连接的过程中,UE向AMF网元发送的第一PDU会话建立请求中可指示请求建立具有always-on属性的第一PDU会话,核心网网元(例如SMF网元)在第一PDU会话的上下文信息中记录第一PDU会话具有always-on属性。之后,在建立第二PDU会话的无线连接的过程中,AMF网元除了触发第二PDU会话的无线连接的建立,还触发第一PDU会话的无线连接的建立。或,在建立非PDU会话的无线连接的过程中,AMF网元除了触发非PDU会话的无线连接的建立,还触发第一PDU会话的无线连接的建立。该种实现方式,依赖UE能够指示请求建立具有always-on属性的PDU会话。
由图3可知,在数据业务处于连接态的过程中,UE通过发起语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接,以实现数据业务和语音业务的同时进行,但是以增加语音业务的呼叫时延为代价。AMF网元触发具有always-on属性的PDU会话的建立,依赖UE能够指示请求建立具有always-on属性的PDU会话。
鉴于此,本申请提供一种无线连接建立方法及其装置,可以精简多个无线连接的建立流程,从而减少时延。例如,在数据业务处于连接态时,AMF网元可以自动触发语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接的建立,无需UE发起语音业务的PDU会话的建立,也无需UE能够指示语音业务的PDU会话具有always-on属性。
下面将结合本申请中的附图,对本申请中的技术方案进行描述。其中,在本申请的描述中,除非另有说明,“/”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。并且,在本申请的描述中,除非另有说明,“多个”是指两个或多于两个。“以下一项(个)或多项(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中的一项或多项,可以表示:a,b,c,a和b,a和c,b和c,或a和b和c,其中a,b,c可以是单个,也可以是多个。另外,为了便于清楚描述本申请的技术方案,在本申请的实施例中,采用了“第一”、“第二”等字样对功能基本相同或相似的技术特征进行区分。本领域技术人员可以理解“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。

本申请涉及的UE(也可称为终端)可以是一种具有无线收发功能的设备,可以部署在陆地上,包括室内或室外、手持或车载;也可以部署在水面上(如轮船等);还可以部署在空中(例如飞机、气球和卫星上等)。UE包括具有无线通信功能的手持式设备、车载设备、穿戴式设备或计算设备。示例性地,UE可以是手机(mobile phone)、平板电脑或带无线收发功能的电脑。终端设备还可以是虚拟现实(virtual reality,VR)终端设备、增强现实(augmented reality,AR)终端设备、智能汽车(smart vehicle)终端设备、工业控制中的无线终端、无人驾驶中的无线终端、远程医疗中的无线终端、智能电网中的无线终端、智慧城市(smart city)中的无线终端、智慧家庭(smart home)中的无线终端、等等。
作为示例而非限定,在本申请中,UE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。
在本申请中,UE可以是物联网(internet of things,IoT)系统中的终端,IoT是未来信息技术发展的重要组成部分,其主要技术特点是将物品通过通信技术与网络连接,从而实现人机互连,物物互连的智能化网络。本申请中的终端可以是机器类型通信(machine type communication,MTC)中的终端。本申请的终端可以是作为一个或多个部件或者单元而内置于车辆的车载模块、车载模组、车载部件、车载芯片或者车载单元,车辆通过内置的所述车载模块、车载模组、车载部件、车载芯片或者车载单元可以实施本申请的方法。因此,本申请可以应用于车联网,例如车辆外联(vehicle to everything,V2X)、车间通信长期演进技术(long term evolution vehicle,LTE-V)、车到车(vehicle to vehicle,V2V)等。
请参见图4,为应用本申请的网络架构示意图。图4所示的网络架构包括接入管理网元401和UE 402。接入管理网元401可以是图1中的AMF网元,也可以是未来通信系统中与AMF网元具有相同功能的网元。
应用在本申请中,接入管理网元401接收来自UE 402的第一建立请求,第一建立请求用于请求建立第一无线连接,响应第一建立请求,触发第一无线连接的建立;接入管理网元401确定未建立具有永久在线属性的第二无线连接,触发第二无线连接的建立。第二无线连接可与第一无线连接同时建立,或第二无线连接在第一无线连接建立的过程中建立,或第二无线连接在第一无线连接建立完成时建立。
其中,第一无线连接和第二无线连接可以均为PDU会话的无线连接,但为不同类型PDU会话的无线连接。第一无线连接可以是非PDU会话的无线连接,第二无线连接可以是PDU会话的无线连接。第二无线连接的数量不限定为一个,具体数量视情况而定。
可见,第二无线连接的建立并不是由UE 402发送的针对第二无线连接的建立请求触发的,从而可以精简多个无线连接的建立流程。无需UE 402指示第二无线连接具有永久在线属性,从而实现UE 402的解耦,适用范围更广。
可选的,图4所示的网络架构还包括接入网设备403,接入网设备403可以是5G系统中的gNB。接入网设备403位于UE 402与接入管理网元401之间。应用在本申请中,接入网设备403用于转发UE 402向接入管理网元401发送的消息,或接入管理网元401向UE 402转发的消息。

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 成对于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。
下面将对本申请提供的无线连接建立方法进行介绍。接入管理网元以AMF网元为例。需要说明的是,网元之间或网元与设备之间交互的信息或数据的名称用于举例,并不构成对本申请的限定。
在本申请实施例中的附图中,各个实施例所示的步骤,以及步骤之间的先后顺序用于举例,并不构成对本申请实施例的限定。应理解,执行图示中的部分步骤或调整步骤的顺序进行具体实施,均落在本申请的保护范围内。
请参见图5,为本申请提供的一种无线连接建立方法的流程示意图,该流程可以包括但不限于如下步骤:
步骤500a,AMF网元确定指定标识列表。
其中,指定标识列表用于确定无线连接是否具有永久在线属性。指定标识列表可以预配置在AMF网元上,或由AMF网元的管理员自行设置。
在一种实现方式中,指定标识列表为指定数据网络名称(data network name,DNN)列表,该指定DNN列表可以包括一个或多个具有永久在线属性的DNN。例如,该指定DNN列表包括语音业务对应的DNN。某个DNN具有永久在线属性,进而其对应的PDU会话具有永久在线属性,PDU会话对应的无线连接也具有永久在线属性。
在另一种实现方式中,在PSI与DNN之间的对应关系固定的情况下,指定标识列表可以是指定PSI列表,该指定PSI列表可以包括一个或多个具有永久在线属性的PDU会话的PSI。例如,该指定PSI列表包括语音业务的PDU会话对应的PSI。某个PSI具有永久在线属性,进而其标识的PDU会话的无线连接具有永久在线属性。
上述两种实现方式,用于举例,并不构成对本申请的限定,实际应用中,指定标识列表还可以是UPF网元与DNN之间的隧道标识列表、其他用于标识DN的信息列表等。
步骤500b,UE向AMF网元发送会话建立请求。相应的,AMF网元接收来自UE的会话建立请求。
其中,会话建立请求用于请求建立PDU会话。进一步的,在建立PDU会话的过程中,可建立PDU会话的无线连接。会话建立请求可携带PDU会话的PSI,以表明PDU会话的类型。
可以理解的是,UE在开机时,或首次启动时,向AMF网元发送会话建立请求,以建立PDU会话。后续对具有永久在线属性的PDU会话而言,可以不断地建立或释放PDU会话的无线连接。例如,对数据业务的PDU会话(具有永久在线属性)而言,可通过打开网页建立PDU会话的无线连接,可通过关闭网页释放PDU会话的无线连接;再例如,对语音业务的PDU会话(具有永久在线属性)而言,可通过拨打电话或接通电话建立PDU会话的无线连接,可通过挂断电话释放PDU会话的无线连接。
UE可直接向AMF网元发送会话建立请求,也可通过接入网设备向AMF网元发送会话建立请求。
步骤500c,在PDU会话对应的标识与指定标识列表匹配,AMF网元记录PDU会话具有永久在线属性。
AMF网元在建立PDU会话的过程中,将该PDU会话对应的标识与指定标识列表进行匹配,以识别出该PDU会话是否具有永久在线属性,并在识别出该PDU会话具有永久在线属性的情况下,记录该PDU会话具有永久在线属性。进一步的,AMF网元可记录该PDU会话 对应的无线连接具有永久在线属性。
在一种实现方式中,指定标识列表为指定DNN列表,该PDU会话对应的第二标识即为该PDU会话对应的DNN(一个PDU会话对应一个DNN)。AMF网元判断该DNN是否在指定DNN列表中,若在则该DNN与指定DNN列表匹配,该PDU会话具有永久在线属性,该PDU会话对应的无线连接具有永久在线属性;若不在则该DNN与指定DNN列表不匹配,该PDU会话不具有永久在线属性,该PDU会话对应的无线连接不具有永久在线属性。
在PDU会话具有永久在线属性的情况下,可按照步骤501至步骤504执行,在建立第一无线连接时,建立该PDU会话的无线连接,从而精简多个无线连接的建立流程,减少时延。在PDU会话不具有永久在线属性的情况下,按照图3所示的流程,建立PDU会话以及PDU会话的无线连接。
可以理解的是,步骤500a至步骤500b是执行步骤501至步骤504的前提条件,步骤501至步骤504为在UE请求建立第一无线连接的情况下,建立第一无线连接和第二无线连接。AMF网元设置指定DNN列表或指定PSI列表,无需UE在第二建立请求中指示第二无线连接具有永久在线属性,适用范围更广。
步骤501,UE向AMF网元发送第一建立请求。相应的,AMF网元接收来自UE的第一建立请求。
其中,第一建立请求用于请求建立第一无线连接,第一无线连接可以是第一PDU会话的无线连接,也可以是非PDU会话的无线连接,例如信令连接或无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)连接。
在第一无线连接为第一PDU会话的无线连接的情况下,第一建立请求可携带第一PDU会话的PSI,以表明第一PDU会话的类型。UE可以在开机或首次启动时,向AMF网元发送第一建立请求,第一建立请求用于请求建立第一PDU会话以及第一PDU会话的无线连接。或,UE可以在执行第一PDU会话的相关操作(例如打开网页或拨打电话等)时,向AMF网元发送第一建立请求,第一建立请求用于请求建立第一PDU会话的无线连接。
UE可直接向AMF网元发送第一建立请求,也可通过接入网设备向AMF网元发送第一建立请求。
步骤502,AMF网元确定未建立具有永久在线属性的第二无线连接。
在一种实现方式中,步骤500b中,AMF网元识别并记录PDU会话的无线连接具有永久在线属性,那么AMF网元可根据其记录信息以及当前已建立的无线连接,确定未建立具有永久在线属性的第二无线连接。
例如,当前已建立的无线连接对应的DNN包括DNN 1至DNN 3,其记录信息指示DNN 1至DNN 5具有永久在线属性,那么AMF网元可确定未建立DNN 4和DNN 5对应的无线连接,且这两个无线连接具有永久在线属性。那么第二无线连接包括DNN 4对应的无线连接,以及DNN5对应的无线连接。
在另一种实现方式中,不考虑步骤500b,AMF网元根据当前已建立的无线连接以及指定DNN列表或指定PSI列表,确定未建立具有永久在线属性的第二无线连接。
例如,当前已建立的无线连接对应的DNN包括DNN 1至DNN 3,指定DNN列表包括DNN 1至DNN 5,那么AMF网元可确定未建立DNN 4和DNN 5对应的无线连接,且这两个无线连接具有永久在线属性。那么第二无线连接包括DNN 4对应的无线连接,以及DNN5对应的无线连接。
AMF网元在接收到第一建立请求的情况下,可以立即触发第一无线连接的建立,即立即 执行步骤503;也可以在确定未建立具有永久在线属性的第二无线连接时,触发第一无线连接和第二无线连接的建立。
步骤503,AMF网元触发第一无线连接的建立。
步骤504,AMF网元触发第二无线连接的建立。可以理解的是,AMF网元触发第二PDU会话对应的无线连接的恢复。
需要说明的是,步骤503和步骤504可同时执行,也可以先执行步骤503再执行步骤504,或先执行步骤504再执行步骤503。步骤503或步骤504的具体实现过程可参见图2中步骤2至步骤11的描述,在此不再赘述。
第一无线连接对应的SMF网元与第二无线连接对应的SMF网元可以相同,也可以不相同,视AMF网元的选择而定。第一无线连接对应的UPF网元与第二无线连接对应的UPF网元可以相同,也可以不相同,视SMF网元的选择而定。
在图5所示的实施例中,AMF网元在确定未建立具有永久在线属性的第二无线连接的情况下,触发第二无线连接的建立,无需UE发送针对第二无线连接的建立请求,从而精简多个无线连接的建立流程,减少时延。
请参见图6,为本申请提供的另一种无线连接建立方法的流程示意图,该流程中第一无线连接以数据业务的PDU会话的无线连接,第二无线连接以语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接为例。图6所示的流程可以包括但不限于如下步骤:
步骤601,UE向AMF网元发送第一建立请求。相应的,AMF网元接收来自UE的第一建立请求。
其中,第一建立请求用于请求建立数据业务的PDU会话的无线连接,可携带PSI=1。
步骤602,AMF网元确定未建立语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接,该无线连接具有永久在线属性。
步骤603,AMF网元触发数据业务的PDU会话的无线连接的建立。
在建立了数据业务的PDU会话的无线连接的情况下,UE可以发送数据业务数据或接收数据业务数据。
步骤604,AMF网元触发语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接的建立。
在建立了语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接的情况下,UE可以发送IMS SIP数据或接收IMS SIP数据。
步骤602至步骤604可参考图5中步骤502至步骤504的具体描述,在此不再赘述。
在图6所示的实施例中,AMF网元将语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接确定为具有永久在线属性,在数据业务处于连接态的过程中,AMF网元可以主动触发语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接的建立,从而减少语音业务的呼叫时延。
请参见图7,为本申请提供的又一种无线连接建立方法的流程示意图,该流程以语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接失败为例,语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接具有永久在线属性。图7所示的流程可以包括但不限于如下步骤:
步骤700,语音业务的PDU会话对应的SMF网元1存在故障,或SMF网元1不可达。
DN呼叫UE时,SMF网元1可能发生故障或SMF网元1不可达。
步骤701,AMF网元检测到SMF网元1存在故障。
在数据业务处于连接态的过程中,AMF网元主动触发语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接的建立。在建立该无线连接的过程中,AMF网元无法接收到来自SMF网元1的消息或接收的来自SMF网元1的消息超时,可确定SMF网元1存在故障或SMF网元1不可达。
步骤702,AMF网元向UE发送重注册通知。相应的,UE接收来自AMF网元的重注册通知。
其中,重注册通知用于通知UE发送重注册请求。
AMF网元可直接向UE发送重注册通知,也可以通过接入网设备向UE发送重注册通知。
步骤703,UE向AMF网元发送重注册请求。相应的,AMF网元接收来自UE的重注册请求。
其中,重注册请求用于请求重新建立语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接。
UE可直接向AMF网元发送重注册请求,也可以通过接入网设备向AMF网元发送重注册请求。
步骤704,AMF网元重新触发语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接的建立。
AMF网元在接收到重注册请求时,执行图2中的步骤2至步骤11,以建立语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接。
在图7所示的实施例中,AMF网元在检测到SMF网元1存在故障的情况下,直接触发UE发送重注册请求,以建立语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接,保证语音业务的正常进行。AMF网元通过永久在线属性检测SMF网元1是否存在故障,相比AMF网元通过图2所示流程检测,可减少检测时间;AMF元在检测到SMF网元1存在故障的情况下,直接触发UE发送重注册请求,相比在检测到SMF网元1存在故障时,逐个分离用户,可减少用户分离时间;从而可以快速恢复语音业务。
请参见图8,为本申请提供的又一种无线连接建立方法的流程示意图,该流程以语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接失败为例,语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接具有永久在线属性。图8所示的流程可以包括但不限于如下步骤:
步骤800,语音业务的PDU会话对应的UPF网元1存在故障,或UPF网元1不可达。
DN呼叫UE时,UPF网元1可能发生故障或UPF网元1不可达。
步骤801,SMF网元1检测到UPF网元1存在故障。
在数据业务处于连接态的过程中,AMF网元主动触发语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接的建立。在建立该无线连接的过程中,SMF网元1无法接收到来自UPF网元1的消息或接收的来自UPF网元1的消息超时,可确定UPF网元1存在故障或UPF网元1不可达。
可选的,SMF网元1向AMF网元发送无线连接建立失败消息。
其中,SMF网元1为语音业务的PDU会话对应的SMF网元。
步骤802,SMF网元1向AMF网元发送重注册通知。相应的,AMF网元接收来自SMF网元1的重注册通知。
步骤803,AMF网元向UE发送重注册通知。相应的,UE接收来自AMF网元的重注册通知。
其中,重注册通知用于通知UE发送重注册请求。
AMF网元可直接向UE发送重注册通知,也可以通过接入网设备向UE发送重注册通知。
步骤804,UE向AMF网元发送重注册请求。相应的,AMF网元接收来自UE的重注册请求。
其中,重注册请求用于请求重新建立语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接。
UE可直接向AMF网元发送重注册请求,也可以通过接入网设备向AMF网元发送重注册请求。
步骤805,AMF网元重新触发语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接的建立。
AMF网元在接收到重注册请求时,执行图2中的步骤2至步骤11,以建立语音业务的PDU会话的无线连接。
在图8所示的实施例中,SMF网元1可快速检测出UPF网元1存在故障,也可减少用户分离时间,从而可以快速恢复语音业务。
图8与图7的不同之处在于,图7为AMF网元检测出SMF网元1存在故障,而图8为SMF网元1检测出UPF网元1存在故障。图7和图8均能快速恢复语音业务。
进一步的,在通过第一PDU会话的无线连接进行通信的过程中,若第二PDU会话对应的SMF网元或UPF网元存在故障,通过永久在线属性可快速检测出存在故障的网元,并快速恢复第二PDU会话的建立。
