请参考图1,其示出了本公开实施例提供的一种无线通信系统的结构示意图。如图1所示,无线通信系统是基于蜂窝移动通信技术的通信系统,该无线通信系统可以包括:若干个UE11以及若干个接入设备12。
其中,UE11可以是指向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备。UE11可以经无线接入网(Radio Access Network,RAN)与一个或多个核心网进行通信,UE11可以是物联网UE,如传感器设备、移动电话(或称为“蜂窝”电话)和具有物联网UE的计算机,例如,可以是固定式、便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的或者车载的装置。例如,站(Station,STA)、订户单元(subscriber unit)、订户站(subscriber station)、移动站(mobile station)、移动台(mobile)、远程站(remote station)、接入点、远程UE(remote terminal)、接入UE(access terminal)、用户装置(user terminal)、用户代理(user agent)、用户设备(user device)、或用户UE(user equipment,UE)。或者,UE11也可以是无人飞行器的设备。或者,UE11也可以是车载设备,比如,可以是具有无线通信功能的行车电脑,或者是外接行车电脑的无线通信设备。或者,UE11也可以是路边设备,比如,可以是具有无线通信功能的路灯、信号灯或者其它路边设备等。
接入设备12可以是无线通信系统中的网络侧设备。其中,该无线通信系统可以是第四代移动通信技术(the 4th generation mobile communication,4G)系统,又称长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统;或者,该无线通信系统也可以是5G系统,又称新空口(new radio,NR)系统或5G NR系统。或者,该无线通信系统也可以是5G系统的再下一代系统。其中,5G系统中的接入网可以称为NG-RAN(New Generation-Radio Access Network,新一代无线接入网)。或者,MTC系统。
其中,接入设备12可以是4G系统中采用的演进型接入设备(eNB)。或者,接入设备12也可以是5G系统中采用集中分布式架构的接入设备(gNB)。当接入设备12采用集中分布式架构时,通常包括集中单元(central unit,CU)和至少两个分布单元(distributed unit,DU)。集中单元中设置有分组数据汇聚协议(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,PDCP)层、无线链路层控制协议(Radio Link Control,RLC)层、媒体访问控制(Media Access Control,MAC)层的协议栈;分布单元中设置有物理(Physical,PHY)层协议栈,本公开实施例对接入设备12的具体实现方式不加以限定。
接入设备12和UE11之间可以通过无线空口建立无线连接。在不同的实施方式中,该无线空口是基于第四代移动通信网络技术(4G)标准的无线空口;或者,该无线空口是基于第五代移动通信网络技术(5G)标准的无线空口,比如该无线空口是新空口;或者,该无线空口也可以是基于5G的更下一代移动通信网络技术标准的无线空口。
在一些实施例中,UE11之间还可以建立E2E(End to End,端到端)连接。比如车联网通信(vehicle to everything,V2X)中的V2V(vehicle to vehicle,车对车)通信、V2I(vehicle to Infrastructure,车对路边设备)通信和V2P(vehicle to pedestrian,车对人)通信等场景。
在一些实施例中,上述无线通信系统还可以包含网络管理设备13。
若干个接入设备12分别与网络管理设备13相连。其中,网络管理设备13可以是无线通信系统 中的核心网设备,比如,该网络管理设备13可以是演进的数据分组核心网(Evolved Packet Core,EPC)中的移动性管理实体(Mobility Management Entity,MME)。或者,该网络管理设备也可以是其它的核心网设备,比如服务网关(Serving GateWay,SGW)、公用数据网网关(Public Data Network GateWay,PGW)、策略与计费规则功能单元(Policy and Charging Rules Function,PCRF)或者归属签约用户服务器(Home Subscriber Server,HSS)等。对于网络管理设备13的实现形态,本公开实施例不做限定。
如图2所示,本公开实施例提供一种TA异常处理方法,由网络设备执行,所述方法包括:
S110:响应于确定发生UE当前所处TA位于所述UE的RA外的TA异常,记录所述TA异常;
S120:基于所述TA异常存在,触发所述UE的RA更新。
此处的网络设备包括但不限于核心网设备,该核心网络设备包括但不限于接入管理功能(Access Management Function,AMF)。
UE在前一次注册时会在网络侧记录有RA,而RA包括一个或多个TA的TAC。若UE发生位置变化,进入新的TA,而UE当前所处TA位于RA内的TA外,但UE并没有发起注册更新流程实现RA更新,则确定发生TA异常。示例性地,网络侧的统一数据管理(Unified Data Management,UDM)或AMF记录有UE的RA。示例性地,在UE的上一次注册过程中,UE和/或网络设备的UDM和AMF记录有UE的RA。
网络侧确定发生这种TA异常,则会记录这种TA异常。示例性地,AMF等网络设备会记录这种TA异常状态,并形成TA异常状态的状态信息。
在一些实施例中,UE会发送非接入层(Non-Access Stratum,NAS)请求消息,接入网设备(例如,基站)接收到该NAS请求消息后,基站等接入网设备将UE的位置信息(包含UE当前所在的TA)包含在NAS请求消息中发送给核心网设备(例如,AMF)。核心网设备若发现UE所在TA不在网络侧记录的RA包含的TA内,则确定TA异常。UE在进行业务请求或者请求建立协议数据单元(Protocol Data Unit,PDU)会话时,核心网设备收到NAS请求消息,核心网设备接收到NAS请求消息之后进入到NAS处理流程,以进行NAS请求消息的响应。
该NAS请求消息包括但不限于以下至少之一:
协议数据单元(Protocol Data Unit,PDU)会话建立请求消息;
服务请求消息。
导致TA异常发生的原因有多种,以下提供一种可能的原因:
UE接入的小区(例如,卫星接入下的小区),UE移动到了新的TA,而该新的TA不包含在UE注册的RA包含的TA内,则产生了TA异常。若UE自身发现已经进入了新的TA,则会主动触发注册更新流程,若UE未感知到自身进入到了新的TA可能就没有主动发起注册更新流程,从而直达网络侧,网络侧设备发现UE的这种TA异常。
如图4所示,在T1时间,UE处于TA1,通过卫星接入5G核心网络,卫星向UE广播多个TA(TA1和TA2),UE完成接入注册,网络侧为UE产生RA(包括TA1及其他TA,但不包括TA2)。 在T2时间,UE移动进入TA2,由于在T1和T2,卫星向UE广播的TA相同,因此UE并不感知自己发生了TA更新,因此UE不会主动发起注册更新以更新RA。如果在T2时间,UE发起了业务请求,gNB会将UE当前所处位置TA2上报给网络侧,网络侧发现UE当前所处位置TA2并不包含在UE的RA内,从而导致UE的TA异常。当然以上仅是对UE的TA异常导致原因简单举例,具体实现时具有多种方法,不限于上述举例。
参考图3和图4所示,卫星可以连接到5G的核心网(Core Network,CN),无线小区针对一个PLMN可能广播一个或多个TAC,且UE会根据这些广播的信息确定自身的TA。
在一种情况下,无线小区广播了一个TAC,则UE会将该TA作为自身当前所在TA。
如图3所示,假设在T1时刻,卫星和无线小区在位置1且大部分覆盖在TA1内,则广播可能的TAC可为TA1的TAC;若卫星和无线小区移动,例如,如图3所示的从左向右移动,则该无线小区可以能在某一个时刻同时覆盖两个TA即(TA1和TA2),或者,逐步从覆盖TA1切换到不覆盖TA1且完全覆盖在TA2上。在T2时刻,卫星和无线小区移动到TA2内,会认为当前无线小区所在TA为TA2,可能会将TA2的TAC广播给UE。
在另一种情况下,无线小区一次性会广播多个TAC。参考图4所示,在T1时刻到TA2时刻,由于无线小区同时覆盖在TA1和TA2上,卫星和无线小区会同时将TA1和TA2的TAC广播给UE。到了T3时刻,卫星和无线小区移动到覆盖TA2和TA2右边的其他TA,则卫星和无线小区会向UE广播TA2和其他TA的TAC。
不管上述那种情形,AMF都是按照UE的RA包含的TAC来寻呼UE。如果AN或者RAN可能将从RA中确定出UE当前所在TA,并在该TA内寻呼UE。
UE会发起注册更新,当UE当前所处的TA不包含在其RA内时,在注册更新流程中,AMF等核心网的网络设备会更新UE的RA,更新后的TA包括UE当前所处的TA和UE可能会接入的TA,如此,方便后续能够成功寻呼到UE。
示例性地,如图4所示,如果T1时刻,UE位于TA1,通过卫星接入5G网络。卫星和无线小区向UE广播TA1和TA2,UE根据广播信息确定自己所处的TA,完成注册,作为注册过程的一部分,AMF为UE产生RA(包括TA1和其他TA,但不包括TA2)。T2时刻,UE发生移动,从TA1移动至TA2,由于T1和T2时刻,卫星和无线小区向UE持续广播TA1和TA2,因此UE可能无法感知到所处的TA变化,不会触发注册更新以更新RA。但T2时刻,如果UE发起服务请求过程,gNB会将UE当前所处的TA2(gNB通过测量获取)上报给AMF,AMF确定UE当前所处的TA2不包含在UE的RA内,此时AMF可以确定UE发生了前述的TA异常。
基站接收到UE发送的NAS请求消息后,基站将UE的位置信息(包含UE当前所在的TA)包含在NAS请求消息中示例性地,该NAS请求消息中包含UE当前所在TA可以作为NGAP中用户位置信息(User Location Information,ULI)的一部分。如果ULI指示的TA并不包含在UE的RA中,则会出现了UE不知晓的TA异常。
在TA异常存在时,会触发UE进行RA更新。示例性地,向UE发送触发指示。该触发指示可 用于指示UE执行注册更新流程,如此,UE将通过注册更新流程更新所述RA。通过RA更新包含UE当前所在TA就能够消除这种TA异常。
网络设备基于TA异常下发注册更新流程的触发指示。该指示信息用于指示UE发起注册更新流程的原因。
示例性地,图5所示为一个注册流程,可包括:
接入网(Access Network,AN)或者RAN接收UE的注册请求;所述注册请求包括:AN参数、注册类型、用户签约永久标识(Subscription Permanent Identifier,SUPI)或者第五代移动通信(5G)全球唯一临时用户标识(Globally Unique Temporary UE Identity,GUTI)、用户设备标识(Permanent Equipment Identifier,PEI)、请求地NSSAI、最后访问的且可用的TAI等。注册类型指示了如果UE是需要进行初始化注册、移动注册更新、周期性注册更新或者永久注册。最后访问的TAI可用于帮助AMF等网络设备确定UE的RA。
AN或者RAN接收到注册请求之后,为UE选择AMF;示例性地,AN或者RAN根据传输注册请求使用的RAT和请求的NASSAI等信息,为UE选择AMF。如果RAN不能为UE选择一个合适的AMF,向RAN注册消息发送RAN或者AN配置的AMF,即选择RAN或者AN配置的AMF作为UE的AMF。
将注册请求发送给选择的AMF;该注册请求是被RAN或者AN携带在N2消息中发送给选择的AMF的。该N2消息的N2参数可包括但不限于:注册请求、选择的公共陆地移动网络(Public Land Mobile Network,PLMN)的标识(Identity,ID)、位置信息、UE所在小区的小区ID等信息。
如果UE的服务AMF相对于上一次注册选择的AMF有发生变化,则新的AMF将从旧的AMF获取UE的SUPI和UE的上下文;
如果UE没有提供SUCI或者旧的AMF没有提供SUCI,新的AMF将发起ID请求流程来获取SUCI。
新的AMF会确定出对UE发起涉及认证服务器功能(Authentication Server Function,AUSF)的UE认证。例如,新的AMF将基于UE的SUPI或者SUCI选择一个AUSF。
如果相对于上一次注册流程,UE的AMF有切换,或者UE提供的SUPI不涉及到AMF中的有效上下文,AMF将基于SUPI选择并注册到一个统一数据管理(Unified Data Management,UDM)。如果AMF没有获取到UE的订阅数据,则将从UDM获取UE的订阅数据。
新的AMF与PCF之间交互关于移动管理(AM)策略的建立或修改的流程;
如果包含注册请求的PDU会话被激活,AMF将发送Nssmf_PDU Session_Update SM Context请求到与PDU会话关联的SMF,以激活PDU会话的用户面连接。
新的AMF发送一个注册接受消息给UE,以指示注册请求被接受了。该注册接受消息包含:RA、移动性限制、允许使用的NASSAI、周期性注册定时器指示等信息。如果AMF分配有新的RA,则将新的RA的信息发送给UE。如果没有为UE分配新的RA,则注册接受消息中将不会携带的RA的信息,且表示旧的RA依然有效。
剩余的注册流程的步骤在此就不再一一描述了。
在一些实施例中,所述S120可包括:
周期性确定所述TA异常是否存在,若存在则基于存在的TA异常触发UE进行RA更新。
在另一些实施例中,所述S120可包括:
在执行与UE的RA或者所在TA关联的业务流程或者控制流程之前,确定是否存在所述TA异常。
示例性地,所述方法还可包括:在寻呼所述UE时,首先确定所述TA异常是否存在,如此在S120可包括:在寻呼该UE时确定存在该UE的TA异常,则触发该UE进行RA更新。在UE完成RA更新之后,UE的TA异常去除,如此可根据UE所处的TA寻呼该UE,从而抑制因为UE的TA异常导致的寻呼失败现象。
如图6所示,本公开实施例提供一种TA异常处理方法,可包括:
S210:响应于确定存在TA异常,记录UE的TA异常;
S220:在寻呼对应UE时确定存在TA异常,触发所述UE的RA更新;
S230:在所述UE的RA更新完成之后,寻呼所述UE。
UE存在TA异常,该TA异常被记录在网络侧,例如,记录在AMF中,AMF在确定寻呼该UE之前,先查询待寻呼的UE是否存在TA异常,若存在TA异常需要先消除这种TA异常,在消除TA异常时可以通过触发UE的RA更新来实现。例如,网络侧触发UE的RA更新可包括:向UE发送触发指示,指示UE发起注册更新流程。UE接收到触发指示之后,会向网络侧发送注册更新请求,通过注册更新流程的执行,使UE的RA包含UE所处的TA,从而消除这种TA异常。
如图7所示,本公开实施例一种TA异常处理方法,由网络设备执行,可包括:
S310:接收NAS请求消息;其中,所述NAS请求消息包含了UE当前所处的TA等位置信息;
S320:根据所述NAS请求消息,确定所述UE当前所处的TA是否位于所述UE的RA外;
S330:响应于所述UE当前所处的TA位于所述RA外,确定发生所述TA异常。
该网络设备可为AMF等核心网的网络设备。
基站接收到UE发送的NAS请求消息后,基站将UE的位置信息(包含UE当前所在的TA等位置信息)包含在NAS请求消息中发送给核心网设备(例如,AMF)。核心网设备若发现UE所在TA不在网络侧记录的RA包含的TA内,则确定TA异常。例如,基站在UE的NAS请求消息包含的该UE的用户位置信息(User Location Imformation,ULI)中添加UE当前所在TA。
本公开实施例提供的方法,可以单独执行,也可以是前述步骤S110的一种具体实现。
总之,在本公开实施例中网络设备可以根据NAS请求消息确定出UE是否具有TA异常。
在本公开实施例中,所述方法还包括:
在确定出TA异常时,还会照常响应所述NAS请求消息。此处的照常响应所述NAS请求消息可为:当作所述TA异常不存在,继续执行NAS请求消息触发的NAS流程的后续步骤。
在一些实施例中,所述方法还包括:
响应于记录有所述TA异常时接收到所述UE发起的注册更新请求;
在完成对应于所述注册更新请求的RA更新后,去除所述TA异常的记录。
除了网络侧触发UE发起注册更新流程(即注册流程的一种),UE可能也会主动发起注册更新流程。
示例性地,若UE由于移动进入到新的TA时发起注册更新流程,从而更新网络侧记录的UE的RA;
又示例性地,若UE想要更改在前一次注册流程中与网络侧协商的网络参数,同样可以根据注册更新流程来实现;
再示例性地,若UE配置有周期性注册更新,当前达到周期性注册更新的更新时刻,则UE同样主动发起注册更新流程,从而实现注册更新。
在本公开实施例中,在发现UE的TA异常时,记录有TA异常。若记录的TA异常未消除之前,接收到UE主动发起的注册更新请求或者基于网络侧触发发起的注册更新请求,将监控注册流程的执行,在完成注册更新请求对应的注册流程执行过程中实现了UE和/或网络侧记录的RA更新之后,就会去除这种TA异常的记录。若UE的TA异常记录被去除之后,则在S120中查询UE的TA异常时,就会发现UE不存在TA异常。
示例性地,所述注册更新请求包括:所述UE接收到TA异常触发发起的所述注册更新请求;或,
所述UE的位置移动触发的所述注册更新请求;或,所述UE发起的周期性注册更新请求。
在一些实施例中,所述网络设备包括:AMF。
如图8所示,本公开实施例提供一种TA异常处理方法,由UE执行,所述方法包括:
S410:接收网络侧基于所述UE的TA异常发送的触发指示;该触发指示,用于触发UE执行注册更新流程;S420:根据所述触发指示,进行RA更新。
在本公开实施例中,该网络侧包括但不限于核心网侧。
此处的TA异常包括:UE当前所处TA位于UE的RA外。且该TA异常是由网络侧确定的。
若网络侧发现UE的TA异常,则会主动触发UE进行RA更新。网络侧会下发触发指示,该触发指示可为:网络侧下发的触发UE发起注册更新请求的任意指示。示例性地,所述触发指示包括但不限于配置更新指令。
在一些实施例中,所述方法还包括:
发送NAS请求消息,其中,所述NAS请求消息在经过接入网设备时加入所述UE的位置信息之后,用于供所述核心网确定是否发生所述UE的TA异常。
例如,该NAS请求消息携带有ULI,该ULI包含了UE所在TA等位置信息。网络侧接收到该NAS请求消息之后发现NAS请求消息包含的TA不包含在UE的RA中,则认为发生UE的TA异常。若发生这种TA异常会记录这种TA异常。
网络侧在执行与UE的RA或者所在TA关联的业务流程或者控制流程之前,查询该UE的TA异常是否存在若存在,则UE会接收到网络侧发送的注册更新的触发指示。
UE可以根据这种触发指示发起注册更新请求,通过注册更新请求对应的注册更新流程进行UE和/或网络侧的RA的更新,从而消除这种TA异常。
在一些实施例中,所述触发指示是在寻呼所述UE之前接收的。触发指示在UE被寻呼之前接收,相当于可以通过RA更新消除TA异常,从而确保UE的寻呼成功率。
为了解决UE的TA异常,如果UE的TA异常被检测到,AMF在忽略检测到的TA异常的同时,记录这种TA异常。在这之后,如果发生寻呼UE的过程,AMF会触发UE发起注册更新来解决TA异常。在TA异常之后被移除之后,再寻呼UE。
如此,采用这种方式不仅可以解决UE的TA异常,同时对UE的寻呼无负面影响。
示例性地,当AMF接收到NAS请求消息(示例性地,该NAS请求消息包括但不限于:PDU建立请求消息或者服务请求消息)时,可以根据NAS请求消息确定是否发生TA异常。如果AMF检测到这种TA异常,会忽略这种TA异常,并将这种TA异常记录在AMF中,并继续响应该NAS请求消息,即照常执行NAS请求消息对应的NAS流程。
AMF记录TA异常。在这之后,如果由于UE的移动或者周期性注册更新等UE主动发起的注册更新发生,并消除了TA异常,则记录的TA异常将从AMF中移出,否则这种TA异常的记录会继续保存在AMF中。
如果需要寻呼UE,AMF接收到寻呼消息之后,确定所述UE是否存在TA异常。如果在AMF中记录有该UE的TA异常,则AMF会触发UE发起注册更新流程。在注册更新流程完成之后,AMF将基于更新后的RA发送寻呼消息。若AMF中没有记录UE的TA异常,则AMF会按照常规流程寻呼UE。
如图9所示,当UE接入到网络时将发起注册流程,该注册流程将在UE和核心网(Core Network,CN)之间完成;UE接入网络时发起的注册流程为UE和CN(例如5G CN)之间的初始注册流程。
如果初始注册成功,UE的RA将被存储在AMF中,该RA可包括一个或多个TA。
接收NAS请求消息(PDU会话建立请求消息),该NAS请求消息携带有基站指示UE所在TA的信息;
AMF接收到该NAS请求消息之后,会检测是否有发生的TA异常。如果TA异常发生,AMF将忽略这种TA异常,且将存储所述UE的TA异常。
AMF和其他实体将继续PDU会话建立流程;
在PDU会话建立后,如果一个紧急服务需要开始,AMF将会向UE发送寻呼消息。在发送寻呼消息之前,AMF判断是否存在所述UE的TA异常;
若存在所述TA异常,AMF向UE发送触发注册更新流程的消息;
收到所述触发注册更新流程的消息,UE向5G CN发起注册更新流程。在注册更新流程完成之后,UE的RA包含UE所在的TA;
AMF使用更新后的RA寻呼UE,开启紧急服务。
如图10所示,当UE接入到网络时将发起注册流程,该注册流程将在UE和5G核心网络(Core  Network,CN)之间完成;UE接入到网络时发起的注册可以认为是初始注册。
如果初始注册成功,UE的RA将被存储在AMF中,该RA可包括一个或多个TA。
接收NAS请求消息(PDU会话建立请求消息),该NAS请求消息携带有基站指示UE所在TA的信息;
AMF接收到该NAS请求消息之后,会检测是否有发生的TA异常。如果TA异常发生,AMF将忽略这种TA异常,且将存储所述UE的TA异常。
AMF和其他实体将继续PDU会话建立流程;
在这之后,发生周期性注册更新流程,AMF更新UE的RA,更新后的RA包含了UE当前所在的TA。更新成功后,AMF移除所述UE的TA异常。
在PDU会话建立后,如果一个紧急服务需要开始,AMF判断不存在该UE的TA异常,则基于记录的RA向UE发起寻呼,开始所述紧急服务。
在本公开实施例中,当接收到包含指示UE当前位置的TA的NAS请求消息时,检测UE的TA异常,如果发生TA异常,AMF将忽略这种TA异常,并记录所述TA异常,并将继续执行NAS请求消息的NAS流程。
在这之后,由于UE的移动或者周期性注册更新发起的注册更新发生,AMF中的所述UE的TA异常会被去除,否则将继续保存在AMF中。
如果寻呼UE发生,AMF接收到寻呼消息时,需要确定所述UE的TA异常是否存在。如果UE的TA异常存在,则AMF将基于所述TA异常触发UE发起注册更新流程。在注册更新流程完成之后,AMF基于UE的RA发送寻呼消息。如果AMF中未存在所述UE的TA异常,则AMF在不触发UE发起注册更新的情况下直接寻呼UE。
