具体实施方式
为了使本申请的目的、技术方案及优点更加清楚明白,以下结合附图及实施例,对本申请进行进一步详细说明。应当理解,此处所描述的具体实施例仅用以解释本申请,并不用于限定本申请。
需要说明的是,虽然在装置示意图中进行了功能模块划分,在流程图中示出了逻辑顺序,但是在某些情况下,可以以不同于装置中的模块划分,或流程图中的顺序执行所示出或描述的步骤。说明书、权利要求书或上述附图中的术语“第一”、“第二”等是用于区别类似的对象,而不必用于描述特定的顺序或先后次序。
本申请提供了一种资源分配方法、网元、存储介质,资源分配方法包括:确定待配置PDU会话所归属的目标共享集群,其中,所述待配置PDU会话为待分配带宽速率的PDU会话,所述目标共享集群预先配置有共享带宽;确定所述待配置PDU会话的目标带宽速率,从所述共享带宽中为所述待配置PDU会话分配所述目标带宽速率。根据本实施例的技术方案,能够从共享带宽中为待配置PDU会话分配带宽速率,实现了以共享集群为粒度进行资源分配,实现了共享带宽的分配控制,提高了带宽配置的灵活性。
下面结合附图,对本申请实施例作进一步阐述。
如图1所示,图1是本申请一个实施例提供的一种资源分配方法的流程图,该资源分配方法应用于第一网元,包括但不限于有步骤S110和步骤S120。
步骤S110,确定待配置PDU会话所归属的目标共享集群,其中,待配置PDU会话为待分配带宽速率的PDU会话,目标共享集群预先配置有共享带宽。
需要说明的是,共享集群可以是DNN,也可以是由多个用户组成的用户组,本实施例对共享集群的具体形式不多作限定,能够基于用户定义路径(User Defined Routing,UDR)进行套餐签约,从而实现共享带宽即可。可以理解的是,统一数据管理功能(Unified Data Management,UDM)为核心网控制面实体,归属用户服务器,能够永久存储用户签约数据,基于此,在针对群共享带宽进行签约之后,本领域技术人员熟知如何从UDM获取签约信息,在此不多作赘述。
需要说明的是,本实施例的技术方案可以基于图2所示的PCC架构实现,图2所示的PCC架构为现有架构,本实施例并不涉及对具体架构的改进,仅涉及资源分配方法的改进, 后续不多作赘述。
值得注意的是,第一网元可以是图2所示的架构中的PCF、会话管理功能(Session Management Function,SMF)或者用户面功能(User Plane Function,UPF),能够在PDU会话的资源分配过程中进行共享带宽的计算和分配即可,本领域技术人员可以根据实际需求选取具体的实体作为第一网元,在此不多作限定。
需要说明的是,PCF是核心网控制面实体,负责接入和移动性管理策略、终端(User Equipment,UE)策略、会话管理策略和计费规则的功能实体,能够根据业务信息和用户签约信息、运营商的配置信息产生接入和移动性管理策略、UE路由选择策略、用户数据传递的服务质量(Quality of Service,QoS)规则和计费规则。基于此,在通过签约确定共享集群后,可以在PCF预先配置好共享带宽的相关参数,例如共享带宽的共享总计最大比特率(Aggregate Maximum Bit Rate,AMBR),本领域技术人员熟知如何进行共享带宽的参数配置,在此不多作赘述。
需要说明的是,本实施例中的待配置PDU会话为新创建且未分配带宽速率资源的PDU会话,当PDU会话被分配到带宽速率之后,则可以进入运行状态,并不涉及带宽速率的变更,后续不多作赘述。
值得注意的是,本实施例的技术方案以确定待配置PDU会话归属于共享集群作为触发判断,当确定待配置PDU会话归属于某个共享集群,从该共享集群的共享带宽中分配归属于待配置PDU会话的资源,从而实现以共享集群为粒度进行共享带宽的分配,使得针对共享集群提供的业务套餐能够更加灵活,从而提高用户体验;若待配置PDU会话不属于任何共享集群,则不存在共享集群粒度,只能采用现有标准以会话粒度进行带宽资源的分配,这种情况不在本实施例讨论范围,后续不重复赘述。
步骤S120,确定待配置PDU会话的目标带宽速率,从共享带宽中为待配置PDU会话分配目标带宽速率。
需要说明的是,PDU会话的目标带宽速率可以通过会话创建请求指定,也可以通过用户针对会话的签约信息确定,例如每个用户接入网络后,会在UDM中建立会话签约信息,会话签约信息与共享集群的签约信息是相互独立的,可以在会话签约信息中约定该用户每个会话的速率需求,例如设定签约会话AMBR,本实施例对目标带宽速率的确定方式不多作限定,能够获取到对应的数值即可。
需要说明的是,由于待配置PDU会话归属于目标共享集群,因此为其分配的资源也应该归属于共享带宽,基于此,可以通过第一网元在共享带宽中,为待配置PDU会话分配目标带宽速率,从而实现共享带宽的控制。
需要说明的是,由于第一网元可以是PCF、SMF或者UPF,因此,在分配到目标带宽速率之后,还需要将目标带宽速率应用至下游实体,例如接入和移动管理功能(Access and Mobility Management,AMF)和基站,在第一网元具备目标带宽速率的情况下,可以按照现有标准中的配置流程,在交互信息中携带目标带宽速率完成传递,本领域技术人员熟知如何传递参数,在此不多作赘述。
另外,在一实施例中,第一网元为PCF,PCF分别与SMF和UDR通信连接,参照图3,图1所示实施例的步骤S110,还包括但不限于有以下步骤:
步骤S310,当获取到SMF发送的第一会话建立请求,创建待配置PDU会话,其中,第 一会话建立请求携带有用户信息和DNN;
步骤S320,获取预设的分配粒度,根据用户信息、DNN和分配粒度从UDR中获取集群标识,分配粒度表征共享集群的分组规则;
步骤S330,将集群标识所对应的共享集群确定为目标共享集群。
本领域技术人员可以理解的是,SMF是核心网控制面实体,可以对PDU会话进行维护,并且根据相关协议,PDU会话的创建请求由SMF发起,因此,为了实现共享集群粒度的控制,可以将PDU会话所属的DNN通过第一会话创建请求发送至PCF,PCF可以根据DNN和用户信息从UDR中签约的共享带宽套餐获取集群标识,当获取成功,则可以确定该待配置PDU会话归属于目标共享集群,集群标识可以是常见的GroupID。
需要说明的是,由于共享集群可以是DNN或者用户组,因此PCF和UDR之间可以预先约定GroupID属于DNN粒度还是用户组粒度,通过分配粒度、DNN和用户信息匹配出共享带宽套餐,从而从多个共享集群中确定目标共享集群。
需要说明的是,第一会话创建请求的数量可以是任意,本实施例对待配置PDU会话的数量不作限定。
另外,在一实施例中,参照图4,在执行图1所示实施例的步骤S110之前,还包括但不限于有以下步骤:
步骤S410,根据集群标识,获取针对共享带宽预先配置好的共享AMBR;
步骤S420,确定已占用带宽速率,已占用带宽速率为目标共享集群中处于运行状态的PDU会话的带宽速率之和;
步骤S430,确定已占用带宽速率与目标带宽速率之和小于或等于共享AMBR。
需要说明的是,PCF可以以集群标识作为查询依据,从预先配置好的共享带宽参数中获取共享AMBR,该共享AMBR为共享带宽速率能够达到的最大值,可以根据共享带宽套餐的签约信息进行配置,本领域技术人员熟知如何在PCF中配置共享带宽的参数。
需要说明的是,由于共享集群中的所有PDU会话共享该共享带宽,共享AMBR为共享带宽速率能够达到的最大值,在为待配置PDU会话分配共享带宽速率之前,需要确定当前剩余的资源是否足够,因此,而对于PCF而言,归属于同一个共享集群的PDU会话是可知的,因此可以根据目标共享集群中可以先确定已占用带宽速率,并在已占用带宽速率与目标带宽速率之和小于或等于共享AMBR的情况下进行后续分配,确保待配置PDU会话能够被分配到目标带宽速率。当然,也可以直接为待配置PDU会话配置目标带宽速率,并且在配置之后通过PCF确定目标共享集群中的已占用带宽速率,若已占用带宽速率超出共享AMBR,将待配置PDU会话设置为下线状态。
值得注意的是,当确定的已占用带宽速率等于共享AMBR,则说明共享带宽的资源已经全部被分配,在这种情况下,PCF可以挂起待配置PDU会话,并且拒绝创建新的PDU会话,直至有PDU会话下线,再根据空闲出来的带宽速率进行待配置PDU会话的配置,实现共享集群粒度的共享带宽分配,若以PDU会话为粒度进行分配,待配置PDU会话的资源配置并不会考虑共享带宽的占用情况,则无法实现上述判断,从而导致待配置PDU会话无法被正确配置。
另外,在一实施例中,SMF与UPF通信连接,参照图5,图1所示实施例的步骤S120,还包括但不限于有以下步骤:
步骤S510,生成携带有目标带宽速率的第一共享策略;
步骤S520,将第一共享策略下发至SMF,以使SMF根据目标带宽速率在共享带宽中为待配置PDU会话分配目标带宽速率。
需要说明的是,由于PCF主要负责制定策略,因此可以在获取到SMF发送的第一会话建立请求后,在返回的响应中添加第一共享策略,通过第一共享策略将确定好的目标带宽速率下发至SMF,例如利用PCF返回的响应中的Sessionrule,将目标带宽速率赋值于Sessionrule的authSessAmbr,使得SMF能够获取目标带宽速率,并直接应用目标带宽速率进行后续配置。
需要说明的是,SMF根据目标带宽速率对待配置PDU会话进行配置,以图2中所示的PCC架构为例,SMF可以通过N4端口与UPF建立会话,从而将目标带宽速率部署至UPF,再发送至涉及的基站,并且通过N1N2TRANSFER消息传递至AMF,本领域技术人员熟知如何实现上述传递方式,本实施例对此不多作赘述。
另外,为了更好地体现本申请在第一网元为PCF的前提下的技术方案,以下提出示例一进行解释说明,在该示例中,集群标识以GroupID为例,第一会话建立请求以PDU会话建立请求为例,参照图6,该示例一包括但不限于有以下步骤:
步骤S601,SMF向PCF发起PDU会话建立请求,携带用户信息、DNN和从UDM获取的签约会话AMBR;
步骤S602,PCF到UDR中获取用户签约共享带宽的套餐GroupID;
步骤S603,PCF依据GroupID查询到在PCF预先配置好的共享带宽速率AMBR,根据签约会话AMBR和共享带宽速率AMBR,为创建的用户会话分配目标带宽速率,其中,目标带宽速率为签约会话AMBR或者由PCF自定义的小于签约会话AMBR的AMBR速率;
步骤S604,PCF返回响应,其中,响应携带的Sessionrule包含authSessAmbr,authSessAmbr的取值为目标带宽速率;
步骤S605,SMF向UPF建立N4会话建立请求,并且携带有目标带宽速率;
步骤S606,UPF向SMF返回N4会话建立响应;
步骤S607,SMF下发目标带宽速率给基站;
步骤S608,SMF在N1N2TRANSFER消息中携带目标带宽速率;
步骤S609,AMF向SMF返回N1N2TRANSFER响应,完成配置。
另外,在一实施例中,第一网元为SMF,SMF与PCF通信连接,PCF与UDR通信连接,参照图7,在执行图1所示实施例的步骤S110之前,还包括但不限于有以下步骤:
步骤S710,生成第一会话建立请求,其中,第一会话建立请求携带有用户信息和DNN;
步骤S720,将第一会话建立请求发送至PCF,以使PCF创建待配置PDU会话;
步骤S730,获取PCF下发的第二共享策略,第二共享策略携带有共享标识,其中,共享标识由PCF根据集群标识生成,集群标识由PCF根据用户信息、DNN和获取到的分配粒度从UDR获取,归属于同一共享集群的PDU会话携带有相同的共享标识,分配粒度表征共享集群的分组规则;
步骤S740,根据共享标识确定待配置PDU会话所归属的目标共享集群。
需要说明的是,PCF创建PDU会话的方式以及获取集群标识的方法可以参考图3所示实施例的描述,为了叙述简便在此不重复赘述。
需要说明的是,在上述第一网元为PCF的实施例中,目标带宽速率是由PCF计算出并且 直接下发至SMF进行后续配置,而本实施例以SMF作为第一网元,则需要通过SMF进行目标带宽速率的计算和分配,因此,第一共享策略携带的目标带宽速率是计算好的数值,可以由SMF直接应用,而第二共享策略携带的是共享标识,可以告知SMF该待配置PDU会话需要进行共享带宽的资源分配。
值得注意的是,为了体现不同的分配粒度,在DNN粒度下,PCF可以在获取到DNN之后从UDR获取针对整个DNN的GroupID,并执行后续操作,在用户组粒度下,可以在第一会话建立请求中携带表征用户组的标识,例如用户永久标识符(Subscription Permanent Identifier,SUPI)、通用公共用户标识(Generic Public Subscription Identifier,GPSI)等,使得PCF根据SUPI、GPSI等信息从UDR获取用户组的GroupID,具体的粒度根据实际需求调整,能够体现共享集群粒度即可。
例如,参考上述实施例的描述,在计算目标带宽速率之前,需要确定待配置PDU会话所归属的目标共享集群,这对于PCF是可以直接确定的,但是SMF主要负责会话管理,并不能对共享集群进行管控,因此,可以通过PCF为待配置PDU会话添加共享标识,使得SMF能够根据共享标识确定归属于同一目标共享集群的PDU会话,例如,PCF在获取到GroupID之后,确定需要对待配置PDU会话分配共享带宽中的资源,可以获取与该GroupID相对应的标识,形成一个sharingkey字段作为共享标识,添加到第二共享策略下发至SMF,当SMF获取到sharingkey字段,则可以确定需要对待配置PDU会话分配共享带宽中的资源。
值得注意的是,为了区分不同的共享集群,可以为每个GroupID设置唯一对应的sharingkey字段的值,以使SMF在获取到sharingkey字段之后,根据取值相同的原则确定归属于同一个共享集群的PDU会话,从而确定目标共享集群,实现基于共享集群粒度的共享带宽控制。
另外,在一实施例中,第二共享策略还携带有共享AMBR,共享AMBR由PCF根据集群标识获取,参照图8,在执行图1所示实施例的步骤S120之前,还包括但不限于有以下步骤:
步骤S810,确定已占用带宽速率,已占用带宽速率为目标共享集群中处于运行状态的PDU会话的带宽速率之和;
步骤S820,确定已占用带宽速率与目标带宽速率之和小于或等于共享AMBR。
需要说明的是,参考上述实施例的描述,第一共享策略所携带的目标带宽速率已经验证过可行,但是第二共享策略并不直接携带目标带宽速率,因此,为了使得SMF在共享带宽可提供的资源范围内分配目标带宽速率,可以通过第二共享策略携带共享AMBR,并且SMF具备共享标识的情况下能够识别出同一个共享集群的PDU会话,因此SMF在获取到共享AMBR,且确定目标共享集群之后,能够计算出已占用带宽速率,从而确定已占用带宽速率与目标带宽速率之和小于或等于共享AMBR,否则不进行PDU会话的配置,确保完成待配置PDU会话的带宽速率分配后,目标共享集群中的所有PDU会话的带宽速率之和不超出共享AMBR,确保PDU会话的正常运行。
当然,可以是确定目标带宽速率之后,在下发至UPF之前,针对标共享集群中的所有PDU会话的带宽速率进行求和计算,若超出共享AMBR则挂起待配置PDU会话,等待正在运行的PDU会话下线后,利用空闲出且足够的带宽资源进行重新配置,能够确保PDU会话分配到足够的可用资源即可。
另外,为了更好地说明本申请在第一网元为SMF的前提下的技术方案,以下提出示例二和示例三:
参照图9,图9为示例二的流程图,在本示例中,分组粒度为DNN,集群标识以GroupID为例,第一会话建立请求以PDU会话建立请求为例,第二会话建立请求以N4会话建立请求为例,共享标识以sharingkey标识字段为例,示例二包括但不限于有以下步骤:
步骤S901,SMF向PCF发起会话建立请求,携带用户信息、DNN和从UDM获取的签约会话AMBR;
步骤S902,PCF到UDR中获取用户签约共享带宽的套餐GroupID;
步骤S903,PCF依据GroupID查询到在PCF预先配置好的共享带宽速率AMBR,结合SMF上报的DNN和UDR签约套餐信息,决策为DNN下该用户下发共享带宽策略;
步骤S904,PCF返回包含共享带宽策略的响应,包含共享带宽速率总和以及sharingkey标识字段;
步骤S905,SMF基于PCF下发的共享带宽策略,根据签约会话AMBR和共享带宽速率AMBR,为创建的用户会话分配目标带宽速率,其中,目标带宽速率为签约会话AMBR或者由PCF自定义的小于签约会话AMBR的AMBR速率;
步骤S906,SMF向UPF建立N4会话建立请求,并且携带有目标带宽速率;
步骤S907,UPF向SMF返回N4会话建立响应;
步骤S908,UPF执行SMF下发的共享带宽,SMF将目标带宽速率下发至基站;
步骤S909,SMF在N1N2TRANSFER消息中,携带目标带宽速率给AMF;
步骤S910,AMF向SMF返回N1N2TRANSFER响应,完成配置。
参照图10,图10为示例三的流程图,在本示例中,分组粒度为用户组,集群标识以GroupID为例,第一会话建立请求以PDU会话建立请求为例,共享标识以sharingkey标识字段为例,第二会话建立请求以N4会话建立请求为例,示例三包括但不限于有以下步骤:

步骤S1005,SMF基于PCF下发的共享带宽策略,根据签约会话AMBR和共享带宽速率AMBR,为创建的用户会话分配目标带宽速率,其中,目标带宽速率为签约会话AMBR或者由PCF自定义的小于签约会话AMBR的AMBR速率;
步骤S1006,SMF向UPF建立N4会话建立请求,并且携带有目标带宽速率;
步骤S1007,UPF向SMF返回N4会话建立响应;

步骤S1009,SMF在N1N2TRANSFER消息中,携带目标带宽速率给AMF;
步骤S1010,AMF向SMF返回N1N2TRANSFER响应,完成配置。
另外,在一实施例中,第一网元为UPF,UPF与SMF通信连接,SMF与PCF通信连接,PCF与UDR通信连接,PCF与UDR通信连接,参照图11,图1所示实施例的步骤S110还包括但不限于有以下步骤:
步骤S1110,获取SMF发送的第二会话建立请求,其中,第二会话建立请求携带有第二共享策略,第二共享策略携带有共享标识,共享标识由PCF根据集群标识生成,集群标识由PCF根据用户信息、DNN和获取到的分配粒度从UDR获取,归属于同一共享集群的PDU会话携带有相同的共享标识,分配粒度表征共享集群的分组规则,用户信息和DNN由SMF获取并通过第一会话建立请求发送至PCF,第二共享策略由PCF在根据第一会话创建请求创建待配置PDU会话的情况下生成并发送至SMF;
步骤S1120,根据共享标识确定待配置PDU会话所归属的目标共享集群。
需要说明的是,为了通过UPF作为第一网元进行目标带宽速率的分配,可以在PCF获取到集群标识和共享标识之后,通过SMF传递至UPF,共享标识和集群标识的定义、选择以及获取方式可以参考上述实施例的描述,为了叙述简便在此不重复赘述。
值得注意的是,在现有的PCC框架下,SMF可以通过N4接口向UPF发送的第二会话建立请求,从而携带第二共享策略,使得UPF能够得知需要为待配置PDU会话进行共享带宽的控制,第二共享策略的生成原理和方式可以参考图7所示实施例的描述,在此不重复赘述。
需要说明的是,在图7所示的实施例中,SMF获取到第二共享策略之后,从中获取共享标识并进行共享带宽的分配,而在本实施例中,SMF识别到第二共享策略携带有共享标识之后,可以获取共享带宽相关的参数,并添加至第二会话建立请求中发送至UPF,使得UPF能够计算和分配目标带宽速率,从而通过UPF实现共享带宽的控制。
另外,在一实施例中,第二共享策略还携带有共享AMBR,共享AMBR由PCF根据集群标识获取,参照图12,在执行图1所示实施例的步骤S120之前,还包括但不限于有以下步骤:
步骤S1210,确定已占用带宽速率,已占用带宽速率为目标共享集群中处于运行状态的PDU会话的带宽速率之和;
步骤S1220,确定已占用带宽速率与目标带宽速率之和小于或等于共享AMBR。
需要说明的是,判断已占用带宽速率和目标带宽速率之和小于或等于共享AMBR的原理和方式可以参考图4和图8所示实施例的描述,本实施例与图4和图8所示实施例的区别主要在于本实施例的执行主体为UPF,其余相似部分在此不重复赘述。
另外,为了更好地体现本申请在第一网元为UPF的前提下的技术方案,以下提出示例四进行解释说明,在本示例中,集群标识以GroupID为例,第一会话建立请求以PDU会话建立请求为例,第二会话建立请求以N4会话建立请求为例,共享标识以sharingkey标识字段为例,参照图13,示例四包括但不限于有以下步骤:
步骤S1301,SMF向PCF发起会话建立请求,携带用户信息和DNN;
步骤S1302,PCF到UDR中获取用户签约共享带宽的套餐GroupID;
步骤S1303,PCF依据GroupID查询到在PCF预先配置好的共享带宽速率AMBR,结合SMF上报的DNN和UDR签约套餐信息,决策为该用户下发共享带宽策略;
步骤S1304,PCF返回包含共享带宽策略的响应,包含共享带宽速率总和以及sharingkey 标识字段;
步骤S1305,SMF发送共享带宽参数至UPF;
步骤S1306,SMF向UPF建立N4会话建立请求,并且携带有签约会话AMBR、共享带宽速率AMBR和sharingkey标识字段;
步骤S1307,UPF向SMF返回N4会话建立响应;
步骤S1308,UPF根据签约会话AMBR和共享带宽速率AMBR,为创建的用户会话分配目标带宽速率,其中,目标带宽速率为签约会话AMBR或者由PCF自定义的小于签约会话AMBR的AMBR速率。
另外,在一实施例中,参照图14,图1所示实施例的步骤S110还包括但不限于有以下步骤:
步骤S1410,获取针对PDU会话的签约会话AMBR;
步骤S1420,将签约会话AMBR确定为目标带宽速率,或者,根据签约会话AMBR和预设比例确定目标带宽速率,其中,预设比例为小于1的正数。
需要说明的是,在上述实施例中,PCF可以根据DNN或者SUPI等信息从UDR中获取共享带宽签约信息,从而确定共享带宽的共享AMBR,而共享AMBR是针对整个共享带宽的,为了对具体的PDU会话进行带宽速率的配置,在用户接入网络之后,会针对PDU会话的AMBR进行签约,并且签约信息保存在UDM中。
需要说明的是,当第一网元为SMF,可以直接从UDM中获取会话签约信息,从而获取签约会话AMBR;当第一网元为PCF,可以由SMF从UDM获取签约会话AMBR,并通过第一会话建立请求发送至PCF;当第一网元为UPF,可以由SMF从UDM获取签约会话AMBR,并通过第二会话建立请求发送至UPF。
需要说明的是,签约会话AMBR为用户的PDU会话所能达到的最大速率,当用户在目标共享集群中只有一个PDU会话,可以将签约会话AMBR作为目标带宽速率,使得分配到的资源更加充分,当然,也有可能同一个用户在目标共享集群中有多个PDU会话,或者目标共享集群为了能为更多的PDU会话提供资源,还可以在第一网元中预先配置好小于1的预设比例,通过预设比例与签约会话AMBR的乘积作为目标带宽速率,具体的计算方式可以根据实际需求选取。
另外,在一实施例中,参照图15,在执行图1所示实施例的步骤S110之后,还包括但不限于有以下步骤:
步骤S1510,当检测到目标共享集群中处于运行状态的PDU会话下线,重新确定已占用带宽速率。
需要说明的是,基于上述实施例的描述,同一个共享集群内所有的PDU会话的带宽速率之和不能超过共享AMBR,否则会挂起待配置PDU会话并且停止新建新的PDU会话,而当处于运行状态的PDU会话下线之后,有一定的资源空闲,此时可以重新确定已占用带宽速率,当空闲的资源足够分配给待配置PDU会话,可以重新执行待配置PDU会话的资源分配流程,确保共享带宽的资源得到充分的利用。
另外,参照图16,本申请的一个实施例还提供了一种网元,该网元1600包括:存储器1610、处理器1620及存储在存储器1610上并可在处理器1620上运行的计算机程序。
处理器1620和存储器1610可以通过总线或者其他方式连接。

以上所描述的装置实施例仅仅是示意性的,其中作为分离部件说明的单元可以是或者也可以不是物理上分开的,即可以位于一个地方,或者也可以分别到多个网络单元上。可以根据实际的需要选择其中的部分或者全部模块来实现本实施例方案的目的。
