Description

一种搜网方法及通信装置 技术领域
本申请涉及无线通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种搜网方法及通信装置。
背景技术
为解决5G 2B场景下指定的签约用户能接入授权的私网的问题,第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd generation partnership project,3GPP)引入了封闭访问组(closed information group,CAG)特性。
在实际应用中,终端设备可能在多种可能的网络环境下使用,例如仅存在公网覆盖的网络环境,或仅存在私网覆盖的网络环境,或公私网混合(即存在公网覆盖又存在私网覆盖)的网络环境等。然而,现有技术中对终端设备如何接入私网或公网并无显式的优选控制,终端设备是接入私网还是公网,主要取决于当前环境下公网或私网的覆盖情况,因此,影响了终端设备的功耗和用户体验。例如,对于支持CAG的终端设备,用户无法选择仅在私网上尝试以及从公网上快速切换到私网上驻留;对于不支持CAG的终端设备,用户无法锁定仅在公网上尝试驻留。
发明内容

以下,对本申请实施例中的部分用语或概念进行解释说明,以便于本领域技术人员理解。
本申请实施例中,终端设备是一种具有无线收发功能的设备,可以是固定设备,移动 设备、手持设备(例如手机)、穿戴设备、车载设备,或内置于上述设备中的无线装置(例如,通信模块,调制解调器,或芯片系统等)。所述终端设备用于连接人,物,机器等,可广泛用于各种场景,例如包括但不限于以下场景:蜂窝通信、设备到设备通信(device-to-device,D2D)、车到一切(vehicle to everything,V2X)、机器到机器/机器类通信(machine-to-machine/machine-type communications,M2M/MTC)、物联网(internet of things,IoT)、虚拟现实(virtual reality,VR)、增强现实(augmented reality,AR)、工业控制(industrial control)、无人驾驶(self driving)、远程医疗(remote medical)、智能电网(smart grid)、智能家具、智能办公、智能穿戴、智能交通、智慧城市(smart city)、无人机、机器人等。所述终端设备有时可称为用户设备(user equipment,UE)、终端、接入站、UE站、远方站、无线通信设备、或用户装置等等。为描述方便,本申请实施例中将终端设备以UE为例进行说明。
本申请实施例中的网络设备,可以包括如下一种或多种:接入网设备,核心网设备,或,运营商设置的服务器。网络设备还可以是服务器、可穿戴设备、或车载设备等。例如,车到一切(vehicle to everything,V2X)技术中的网络设备可以为路侧单元(road side unit,RSU)。
其中,接入网设备为具有无线收发功能的设备,用于与终端设备进行通信。所述接入网设备包括但不限于上述通信系统中的基站(BTS,Node B,eNodeB/eNB,或gNodeB/gNB)、收发点(transmission reception point,TRP)、第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd generation partnership project,3GPP)后续演进的基站、无线保真(wireless fidelity,Wi-Fi)系统中的接入节点、无线中继节点、无线回传节点等。所述基站可以是:宏基站,微基站,微微基站,小站,中继站等。多个基站可以支持上述提及的同一种接入技术的网络,也可以支持上述提及的不同接入技术的网络。基站可以包含一个或多个共站或非共站的传输接收点。网络设备还可以是云无线接入网络(cloud radio access network,CRAN)场景下的无线控制器、集中单元(centralized unit,CU)、和/或分布单元(distributed unit,DU)。以下对接入网设备以为基站为例进行说明。基站可以与终端设备进行通信,也可以通过中继站与终端设备进行通信。终端设备可以与不同接入技术中的多个基站进行通信。
所述核心网设备用于实现移动管理,数据处理,会话管理,策略和计费等功能。不同接入技术的系统中实现核心网功能的设备名称可以不同,本申请实施例并不对此进行限定。以5G系统为例,所述核心网设备包括:接入与移动性管理功能(access and mobility management function,AMF)、会话管理功能(session management function,SMF)、用户面功能(user plane function,UPF)或策略控制功能(policy control function,PCF)等。其中,AMF用于负责移动性管理、接入鉴权/授权,以及在终端与PCF间传递用户策略等功能。SMF用于负责会话管理、PCF下发控制策略的执行、UPF的选择、终端的互联网协议(internet protocol,IP)地址分配等功能。UPF作为和数据网络的接口,负责用户面数据转发、基于会话/流级的计费统计、带宽限制等功能。
运营商设置的服务器可以用于对某一类或多类终端设备进行管理,例如IoT设备管理器(IoT device manager)作为运营商设置的一种服务器,可对该运营商覆盖的IoT设备进行管理。
本申请实施例中的公共陆地移动网络(public land mobile network,PLMN)是以为公众提供陆地移动通信业务的目的而建立和经营的网络,该网络通常与公众交换电话网 (PSTN)互连,形成整个地区或国家规模的通信网。PLMN标识包括移动国家码(mobile country code,MCC)和移动网络码(mobile network code,MNC),以PLMN标识为46000为例,MCC为460,表示中国;MNC为00,表示移动。对于同一个运营商来说,在不同的区域可以有不同的PLMN标识,例如,中国移动的PLMN标识可以有46000、46002、46007、46008,又例如,中国联通的PLMN标识为46001、46006、46009。
本申请实施例中的CAG是指为了仅为授权的终端设备提供非公共网络(non-public network,NPN)服务,避免非授权的终端设备接入和选择NPN,引入的一种网络功能。例如,可以预先配置授权的终端设备所属的CAG,如此,通过依据终端设备所属的CAG可以为属于某一或某些CAG中的终端设备提供NPN服务。从CAG的角度来说,一个CAG可以为一个或多个终端设备提供服务;从终端设备的角度来说,一个终端设备可以属于一个或多个CAG,通过所属的任一个CAG接入网络。示例性地,终端设备a中可以存储有CAG信息列表(list),该CAG信息列表中包括终端设备a所属的一个或多个CAG的标识。CAG的标识可以是CAG的身份标识号(identifier,ID)或其他信息,具体不做限定。再例如,也可以预先将小区与CAG关联,与CAG关联的小区可称为CAG小区或私网小区,未与CAG关联的小区可称为非(non)CAG小区或公网小区。从CAG的角度来说,一个CAG可以与一个或多个小区关联。从小区的角度来说,一个小区也可以关联一个或多个CAG,小区可以广播PLMN信息以及其关联的一个或多个CAG的标识。
本申请实施例中,对于名词的数目,除非特别说明,表示“单数名词或复数名词”,即"一个或多个”。“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。例如,A/B,表示:A或B。“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),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。
本申请实施例提及“第一”、“第二”等序数词是用于对多个对象进行区分,不用于限定多个对象的大小、内容、顺序、时序、优先级或者重要程度等。例如,第一网络和第二网络,可以是同一个网络,也可以是不同的网络,且,这种名称也并不是表示这两个网络的位置、对应的参数、优先级或者重要程度等的不同。另外,本申请所介绍的各个实施例中对于步骤的编号,只是为了区分不同的步骤,并不用于限定步骤之间的先后顺序。
图1示例性示出了本申请实施例适用的一种通信系统的网络架构,如图1所示,该通信系统包括终端设备110、接入网设备120和核心网设备(例如AMF 130)。该通信系统为支持CAG私网的通信系统,接入网设备可通过覆盖的私网小区和/或公网小区为终端设备提供服务,从而可以在各类垂直行业(如企业园区、厂区、学校等)的场景中广泛应用。
终端设备的NAS层和AS层可交互完成搜网流程,以实现在某一小区上的驻留。具体的,在搜网流程中,终端设备的NAS层负责选择PLMN,并将选择的PLMN的信息传递给AS层;终端设备的AS层负责搜索选择的PLMN的小区,例如私网小区和/或公网小区。终端设备的NAS层可能会在以下两种情况下触发选择PLMN:第一种情况为开机或从无覆盖区移动到有覆盖区,该情况可以理解为是终端设备在开机时或是在从缺乏覆盖的状态 恢复后,需要找到合适的PLMN接入。第二种情况为周期性选网尝试,终端设备需要进行周期性搜索,以确定是否有优先级更高的PLMN,该情况主要针对从漫游网络回到归属网络接入的漫游场景。终端设备的AS层可在一些频带(band)和频点上扫描网络信号,解小区广播,根据读取到的该小区的广播信息,判断是否符合该小区的驻留门限来决定能否成功驻留该小区。当成功驻留在某一小区后,终端设备的AS层还可向终端设备的NAS层发送驻留小区系统消息,以指示驻留在某一小区。进而,终端设备的NAS层可发起终端设备的注册流程,以完成到网络的注册。例如,终端设备可通过接入网设备向AMF发送注册请求消息,以及接收来自AMF的注册接受消息。
图2和图3示例性示出了本申请实施例两种可能的应用场景。如图2所示,通信系统可以为私网用户提供公网服务。具体的,企业园区范围内无公网覆盖,或者有公网覆盖但是私网UE在园区内仅允许通过私网接入。在该场景下,私网UE有时仍需要享受公网服务。例如,语音服务(Voice Service)。当夜间生产发生故障时,生产设备UE A需要电话通知管理员UE B;再例如,数据服务(Data Service),车UE B驶出园区私网,UE A可以实时跟踪UE B的物流情况。
如图3所示,通信系统中的公网用户可以远程控制私网设备。具体的,智慧农场内部署一个私网NPN,所有监控、灌溉、除虫等设备均只能接入私网。农民(UE A)在远端通过公网接入,查看农作物的生长情况,并调节灌溉设备水速等。
为解决背景技术中所提到的无法对终端设备接入私网或公网进行有效控制的问题,本申请实施例提供一种搜网方法,该搜网方法可以通过为终端设备设置合适的搜网模式,实现快速接入公网或私网,或在私网与公网间进行快速切换,从而满足各类终端设备的业务需求。
图4示例性示出了本申请实施例提供的一种搜网方法,该方法应用于终端设备,该终端设备可支持私网和公网,也即支持私网小区和公网小区。如图4所示,该方法包括:
步骤401,终端设备获取搜网模式,该搜网模式为私网模式、公网模式和私网优先模式中的一种。
其中,私网模式是指终端设备仅尝试在私网小区驻留;公网模式是指终端设备仅尝试在公网小区驻留;私网优先模式是指终端设备可优先尝试在私网小区驻留,如果无法成功在私网小区驻留(例如搜索不到符合条件的私网小区),再尝试在公网小区驻留。如此,对于活动区域仅在私网覆盖区域或仅有私网覆盖但无移动性的特点的终端设备(例如电表、水表等IOT设备),可以为其配置私网模式,使得这类终端设备只能通过私网访问网络。对于没有私网接入需求或不支持私网的终端设备,可以为其配置公网模式,使得这类终端设备只能通过公网访问网络。对于同时有私网和公网接入的需求,有一定的移动性的终端设备(例如园区送餐车,矿车等),可以为其配置私网优先模式,使得这类终端设备可以优先通过私网访问网络。
示例性地,终端设备的用户识别卡(subscriber identity module,SIM)卡或非易失性存储器(non-volatile memory,NV)中可预置有该终端设备支持的搜网模式的信息,终端设备可通过读取SIM卡或NV中存储的搜网模式信息获取搜网模式。
如果终端设备具有用户交互界面,该终端设备的SIM卡或NV中可以预置有多种搜网模式的信息,这种情况下,可以由用户通过用户交互界面上显示的搜网模式选择菜单,从 预置的多种搜网模式中选择当前生效的搜网模式,从而使得终端设备实际采用的搜网模式可以根据用户需求进行灵活动态的调整。例如,搜网模式选择菜单中可显示预置的多种搜网模式各自对应的选择按钮,用户可以点击选择按钮或执行其他触控操作,选择其中的一种搜网模式,并点击确认后,使该搜网模式生效。终端设备可通过检测用户作用于用户交互界面上显示的搜网模式选择菜单中某一选择按钮的触控操作,获取用户选择的搜网模式。
步骤402,终端设备根据搜网模式,驻留私网小区或公网小区或在公网小区与私网小区之间进行切换。
若获取到的搜网模式为私网模式,在存在私网部署的网络环境下,终端设备可通过小区搜索的方式驻留私网。具体的,终端设备可根据PLMN列表中各个PLMN的优先级顺序,选择第一通信制式的PLMN中支持CAG的PLMN,该第一通信制式的网络支持CAG功能;然后,终端设备可在选择的PLMN中执行小区搜索,若搜索到支持该选择的PLMN的私网小区,并且该私网小区关联的CAG为终端设备支持的CAG,则驻留该私网小区。此后,终端设备还可向AMF网元发送注册请求消息,以触发注册流程。该注册请求消息中包第一指示信息,该第一指示信息用于指示终端设备支持CAG能力。
示例性地,如图5所示,在步骤501中,终端设备的非接入层(non-access stratum,NAS)可根据PLMN列表中各个PLMN的优先级顺序选择第一通信制式的PLMN中支持CAG的PLMN,然后在步骤502中将选择的PLMN的信息发送给终端设备的接入层(access stratum,AS),该第一通信制式的网络支持CAG功能。在步骤503中,终端设备的AS可执行小区搜索,若搜索到支持所述选择的PLMN且满足S准则的私网小区,并且该私网小区关联的CAG为终端设备支持的CAG,则终端设备的AS可成功驻留该私网小区。其中,S准则是在小区搜索过程中判断小区能否驻留的一个条件,表示只有满足相应信号强度和质量要求的小区才能驻留。在步骤504中,终端设备的AS可向终端设备的NAS发送驻留小区系统消息,该驻留小区系统消息中包括驻留的该私网小区的标识信息,以指示驻留该私网小区。在步骤505中,终端设备的NAS可发起注册流程,向核心网中的AMF网元发送注册请求(register request)消息,该注册请求消息中包括第一指示信息,该第一指示信息用于指示终端设备支持CAG能力,可选的,该第一指示信息还可指示终端设备支持第一通信制式的网络。
示例性地,终端设备的SIM卡或NV中可存储有PLMN列表,该PLMN列表中包括注册PLMN(registered PLMN,RPLMN)、归属PLMN(home PLMN,HPLMN)、等效归属PLMN(equivalent home PLMN,EHPLMN)、用户控制PLMN(user controlled PLMN,UPLMN)、运营商控制PLMN(operator controlled PLMN,OPLMN)等多类PLMN,且各类PLMN的优先级顺序从高到低依次为RPLMN>HPLMN=EHPLMN>UPLMN>OPLMN。
如此,终端设备的NAS在选择PLMN时,可按照PLMN列表中的PLMN的优先级从高到低的顺序,优先选择优先级较高的第一通信制式的PLMN中支持CAG的PLMN。其中,该第一通信制式的网络支持CAG功能,例如可以是5G NR网络。支持CAG的PLMN是指,在终端设备的CAG信息列表(CAG information list)中与一个或多个CAG的标识信息关联的PLMN。该CAG信息列表可以是网络下发的,也可以是终端设备的SIM卡或NV中预配置的,并不限定。
进一步地,终端设备的AS在执行小区搜索时,可从搜索到的小区中选择支持所述选择的PLMN,同时满足S准则,并且关联的CAG为终端设备支持的CAG的私网小区驻留。 具体的,当搜索到某一小区时,终端设备的AS可首先根据该小区的信号强度和信号质量,判断该小区是否满足S准则。如果满足S准则,则进一步解码该小区的小区广播,判断该小区是否是CAG小区。如果是CAG小区,则继续判断该小区广播的CAG的标识信息是否在终端设备的CAG信息列表中(即判断该小区关联的CAG是否是终端设备支持的CAG)。如果在终端设备的CAG信息列表中,则终端设备驻留成功,否则驻留失败。
可选的,如果出现了驻留失败(可能是由于终端设备移出私网的覆盖区域,因而无法接入私网提供的服务),后续当终端设备移动到有私网覆盖的区域,或当前区域重新有私网覆盖,则终端设备会继续驻留到私网小区提供服务,期间终端设备可间隔性尝试驻留私网小区,不会尝试驻留公网小区。
若获取到的搜网模式为公网模式,在存在公网部署的网络环境下,终端设备可通过小区搜索的方式驻留公网。具体的,终端设备可根据PLMN列表中各个PLMN的优先级顺序,选择第一通信制式的PLMN中非限定仅支持CAG的PLMN,或者选择第二通信制式的PLMN,该第一通信制式的网络支持CAG功能,该第二通信制式的网络不支持CAG功能。然后,终端设备可在选择的PLMN中执行小区搜索,若搜索到支持该述选择的PLMN的公网小区,则驻留该公网小区。此后,终端设备还可向AMF网元发送注册请求消息,以触发注册流程。该注册请求消息中包括第二指示信息,该第二指示信息用于指示终端设备不支持CAG能力。
示例性地,如图6所示,在步骤601中,终端设备的NAS可根据PLMN列表中各个PLMN的优先级顺序选择第一通信制式的PLMN中非限定仅支持CAG(即非CAG only)的PLMN,或者选择第二通信制式的PLMN,然后在步骤602中将选择的PLMN的信息发送给终端设备的AS,由终端设备的AS执行小区搜索。该第一通信制式的网络支持CAG功能,该第二通信制式的网络不支持CAG功能。在步骤603中,若终端设备的AS搜索到支持选择的PLMN且满足S准则的公网小区,则终端设备的AS可成功驻留该公网小区。在步骤604中,终端设备的AS可向终端设备的NAS发送驻留小区系统消息,该驻留小区系统消息中包括驻留的该公网小区的标识信息,以指示驻留该公网小区。在步骤605中,终端设备的NAS可发起注册流程,向核心网中的AMF网元发送注册请求(register request)消息,该注册请求消息中包括第二指示信息,该第二指示信息用于指示终端设备不支持CAG能力。
示例性地,当搜网模式为公网模式时,由于第一通信制式的网络支持CAG功能,第二通信制式的网络不支持CAG功能,因此,终端设备的NAS在选择PLMN时,可以选择第二通信制式的PLMN,也可以选择第一通信制式的PLMN。但是,在选择第二通信制式的PLMN时要注意,应选择不支持CAG的PLMN,或者支持CAG但不是CAG only(限定仅支持CAG)的PLMN。第一通信制式的网络设备例如可以是5G NR网络,第二通信制式的网络例如可以是2G、3G或4G网络等。
进一步地,终端设备的AS在执行小区搜索时,可从搜索到的小区中选择支持所述选择的PLMN且满足S准则的公网小区驻留。具体的,当搜索到某一小区时,终端设备的AS可首先根据该小区的信号强度和信号质量,判断该小区是否满足S准则。如果满足S准则,则进一步解码该小区的小区广播,判断该小区是否是CAG小区。如果是非CAG小区,则驻留成功,否则驻留失败。
如果出现了驻留失败(可能是由于终端设备移出公网的覆盖区域,因而无法接入公网提供的服务),后续UE移动到有公网覆盖的区域或当前区域重新有公网覆盖,终端设备可继续驻留到公网小区提供服务,期间终端设备可间隔性尝试驻留公网小区,不会尝试驻留私网小区。
若获取到的搜网模式为私网优先模式,且终端设备当前驻留在公网小区,在公私网混合部署的网络环境下,终端设备可以通过小区搜索的方式返回私网小区驻留。具体的,终端设备在第一定时器超时的情况下,可选择第一通信制式的PLMN中支持CAG的PLMN,该第一通信制式的网络支持CAG功能,该第一定时器被配置为在终端设备当前驻留公网小区且获取到的搜网模式为私网优先模式的情况下开启,并且该第一定时器的时长根据第一定时器的启动次数确定;然后,终端设备可在选择的PLMN中执行小区搜索,若搜索到支持该选择的PLMN的私网小区,并且该私网小区关联的CAG为终端设备支持的CAG,则驻留该私网小区,并将第一定时器的启动次数清零。若未搜索到支持该选择的PLMN的私网小区,或者搜索到的私网小区关联的CAG不是终端设备支持的CAG,则重新启动第一定时器。
示例性地,如图7所示,在步骤701中,终端设备当前驻留在某个EHPLMN的公网小区,若获取到的搜网模式为私网优先模式,终端设备的NAS可启动第一定时器。可选的,在步骤702中,终端设备的NAS可向第一定时器发送启动通知,该启动通知中包括用于指示第一定时器启动的指示信息以及该第一定时器的时长。可选的,在步骤703中,在第一定时器超时后,终端设备的NAS可接收来自第一定时器的超时通知。
需要说明的是,第一定时器的时长可根据该第一定时器当前的启动次数确定。例如,在步骤701所示的初始状态下,第一定时器的启动次数为0次,在启动第一定时器之前,终端设备的NAS可根据当前第一定时器的启动次数0次,确定此次第一定时器的时长,该时长可以是一个预设值。在第一定时器启动之后,终端设备的NAS可将第一定时器的启动次数加1,此后,当再次启动该第一定时器时,第一定时器的时长可根据递增后的启动次数确定,例如可以大于或等于第一定时器上次启动时的时长,依此类推。
在一种可能的实施方式中,第一定时器的时长可随着启动次数的增加,按照线性或阶梯性的规律逐渐增加,也即,启动次数越多,第一定时器的时长也越长。例如,可以设置一个相关系数,通过将第一定时器的启动次数乘以相关次数,得到每次启动第一定时器时该第一定时器的时长。再例如,可以设置若干个启动次数的门限值,通过该若干个门限值将启动次数划分为对应的若干个区间,每个区间内第一定时器的时长相同,不同的区间的时长随着启动次数的增大而阶梯性增加,可以根据当前第一定时器的启动次数落在哪个区间内,确定第一定时器的时长是多少。
在第一定时器超时后,在步骤704中,终端设备的NAS可选择第一通信制式且支持CAG的EHPLMN,并在步骤705中将选择的EHPLMN的信息发送给终端设备的AS,该第一通信制式的网络支持CAG功能,例如可以为NR。在步骤706中,终端设备的AS可执行小区搜索,若搜索到支持选择的EHPLMN且满足S准则的私网小区,并且该私网小区关联的CAG为终端设备支持的CAG,则成功驻留该私网小区。进而,在步骤707中,终端设备的AS可向终端设备的NAS发送小区驻留系统消息,该小区驻留系统消息中可包括驻留的该私网小区的标识信息,以指示驻留该私网小区。在成功驻留私网小区之后,在 步骤708中,终端设备的NAS可重置第一定时器的启动次数,将第一定时器的启动次数清零。
否则,若未搜索到支持选择的EHPLMN的私网小区,或者搜索到的私网小区关联的CAG不是终端设备支持的CAG,终端设备的AS可向终端设备的NAS发送驻留失败系统消息,以指示终端设备驻留失败。此后,终端设备的NAS可重新启动第一定时器。在该第一定时器超时后,终端设备的NAS可重新触发PLMN选择以及小区搜索流程,再次尝试返回到私网小区驻留,直至驻留成功。
需要说明的是,如果终端设备从同一个PLMN下的公网到私网,终端设备在发起业务接入的时候,可通过空口的RRCSetupComplete消息中的IEselectedPLMN-Identity信元指示不同的小区索引,由AMF网元区分是终端设备接入的是私网小区还是公网小区。如果终端设备从不同PLMN或者TA区的公网到私网,终端设备可在发起移动性注册时通过注册请求消息通知AMF。例如,空口的register request消息中携带不同的PLMN,同时也会在RRCSetupComplete消息里通过IEselectedPLMN-Identity指示不同的小区索引,由AMF网元区分终端设备接入的是私网小区还是公网小区。
若获取到的搜网模式为私网优先模式,且终端设备当前驻留在公网小区,在公私网混合部署的网络环境下,终端设备可以通过小区重选的方式返回私网小区驻留。具体的,终端设备当前驻留在第一PLMN的公网小区,若终端设备当前驻留的公网小区的信号测量信息差于设定阈值,终端设备可获取该公网小区的一个或多个邻区的信号测量信息;然后,根据该一个或多个邻区的信号测量信息,从该一个或多个邻区中选择支持第一PLMN或该第一PLMN的等效PLMN的私网小区驻留,若不存在该私网小区,则终端设备可选择支持第一PLMN或该第一PLMN的等效PLMN的公网小区驻留。
示例性地,如图8所示,终端设备当前驻留在第一PLMN的公网小区,该第一PLMN可以为归属PLMN、归属等效PLMN或访问PLMN中的一种。在步骤801中,若终端设备当前驻留的公网小区的信号测量信息差于设定阈值(例如终端设备发生了移动,来到了当前驻留的公网小区的边缘区域,因而信号变差),终端设备的AS可获取当前驻留的公网小区的一个或多个邻区的信号测量信息。该一个或多个邻区可以是网络预先配置的,该信号测量信息可包括参考信号接收功率(reference signal receiving power,RSRP)、参考信号接收质量(reference signal receiving quality,RSRQ)等用于表征小区信号接收情况的参数。在步骤802中,终端设备的AS可根据测量结果,从上述一个或多个邻区中选择支持第一PLMN或第一PLMN的等效PLMN,且满足R准则的私网小区驻留。其中,R准则是终端设备在进行小区重选时在同频或相同优先级的异频邻区之间适用的准则,表示只有邻区的R值大于服务小区的R值,并且持续一定的时间,才会发生小区重选。具体的,服务小区的R值Rs=Qmeas,s+QHyst,Qmeas,s是服务小区RSRP,QHyst是小区重选迟滞,用于防止乒乓。邻区的R值Rn=Qmeas,n–CellQoffset,Qmeas,n是邻区RSRP,CellQoffset是小区重选偏置,用于控制容易或不容易重选。上述各个能量值可以由终端设备读取小区广播得到。在步骤803中,若不存在满足条件的私网小区,则终端设备的AS可选择支持第一PLMN或第一PLMN的等效PLMN且满足R准则的公网小区驻留。进而,在步骤804中,终端设备的AS可向NAS发送驻留小区系统消息,以指示驻留的私网小区或公网小区。在步骤805中,若上述一个或多个邻区中既不存在满足条件的私网小区,也不存在满足条 件的公网小区,则终端设备的AS可确定驻留失败,并向NAS发送丢网指示。此后,在步骤806中,终端设备的NAS可按照丢网搜网流程重新进行PLMN选择。所述丢网搜网流程可参考图6所示实施例的相关描述,不再赘述。
若获取到的搜网模式为私网优先模式,且终端设备当前驻留在访问PLMN的小区(可以是私网小区或公网小区),在存在公私网混合部署的网络环境下,终端设备可通过小区搜索的方式返回高优先级的PLMN的小区驻留,并优先驻留私网小区。具体的,终端设备可周期性地判断当前是否存在高优先级的PLMN可用,若存在高优先级的PLMN可用,则选择当前可用的优先级最高的PLMN;然后,终端设备可在当前可用的优先级最高的PLMN中执行小区搜索,若搜索到支持该当前可用的优先级最高的PLMN的私网小区,并且该私网小区关联的CAG为终端设备支持的CAG,则驻留该私网小区。否则,若未搜索到支持该当前可用的优先级最高的PLMN的私网小区,但搜索到支持该当前可用的优先级最高的PLMN的公网小区,则驻留该公网小区。
示例性地,如图9所示,周期性地高优先级搜网流程开始前,终端设备的NAS可按照(等效)归属PLMN->用户控制PLMN->运营商控制PLMN->访问PLMN的顺序,构造候选PLMN列表。在周期性地高优先级搜网流程开始后,在步骤901中,终端设备的NAS可周期性地判断是否存在高优先级的PLMN可用,例如可以按照候选PLMN列表中各个PLMN的优先级顺序进行判断。在步骤902中,若存在高优先级的PLMN可用,终端设备的NAS可选择当前可用的优先级最高的PLMN,并在步骤903中将选择的PLMN的信息发送给终端设备的AS。在步骤904中,终端设备的AS可执行小区搜索,若搜索到支持该选择的当前可用的优先级最高的PLMN且满足S准则的私网小区,并且该私网小区关联的CAG为终端设备支持的CAG,则驻留该私网小区。否则,在步骤905中,若搜索到支持该选择的当前可用的优先级最高的PLMN且满足S准则的公网小区,则驻留该公网小区。进一步地,在步骤906中,终端设备的AS可向终端设备的NAS发送驻留小区系统消息,以指示驻留的私网小区或公网小区。
所述高优先级的PLMN是指比当前驻留的访问PLMN的优先级高的PLMN,例如可以是(等效)归属PLMN或用户控制PLMN或运营商控制PLMN。如果存在多个高优先级的PLMN可用,终端设备的NAS可按照候选PLMN列表中各个PLMN的优先级顺序,从中选择优先级最高的PLMN。例如,如图10所示,周期性地高优先级搜网流程开始后,终端设备可按照候选PLMN列表中各PLMN的优先级顺序,先判断当前是否存在(等效)归属PLMN可用。若存在(等效)归属PLMN可用,则选择(等效)归属PLMN的小区驻留,优先驻留满足条件的私网小区,如搜索不到满足条件的私网小区,则驻留公网小区。若不存在(等效)归属PLMN可用,则进一步判断当前是否存在用户控制PLMN可用。若存在用户控制PLMN可用,则选择用户控制PLMN的小区驻留,优先驻留满足条件的私网小区,如搜索不到满足条件的私网小区,则驻留公网小区。若不存在用户控制PLMN可用,则再判断当前是否存在运营商控制PLMN可用。若存在运营商控制PLMN可用,则选择运营商控制PLMN的小区驻留,优先驻留满足条件的私网小区,如搜索不到满足条件的私网小区,则驻留公网小区。若不存在运营商控制PLMN可用,则选择继续待在当前的访问PLMN的小区。
上述技术方案中,对于支持用户交互界面的终端设备,可以通过搜网模式选择菜单进 行搜网模式的设置和切换。对于不支持用户交互界面的终端设备,可以在终端设备的SIM卡或NV中预置终端设备支持的搜网模式。如此,可使得终端设备基于搜网模式,快速接入公网或私网提供的服务,或在公网与私网之间进行快速切换,同时降低终端设备的功耗。
