- Step 1 If HPLMN wants to control how the UE selects a network based on network slicing, configure the configuration (profile) file in the USIM card, and add an indication of whether the PLMN ID supports network selection based on network slicing to the configuration file. If the UE needs to perform network selection based on network slicing, it only considers the supported PLMNs. The indication can be 0, not supported; 1, supported.
- Step 2 The access layer of the UE reads the system information of the cell at the current location, and the system information includes slice information supported by the PLMN. It may also include an indication of supporting network selection based on network slicing. The indication and the slice information supported by the PLMN may belong to different SIBs.

- Step 4 The HPLMN can update the content in the configuration (profile) file through NAS signaling. It can be configured to UE by using Steering of roaming transparent container (Steering of roaming transparent container) parameter.

下面将结合附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行描述。
图1是根据本申请提供的无线通信系统架构100的示意性框图。
如图1所示,所述系统架构100包括终端设备110,接入网设备120,核心网设备130以及数据网络(data network,DN)160。其中,核心网设备130包括管理设备140和网关设备150。
在本申请的一些实施例中,可选地,终端设备110可以用于通过无线空口连接到运营商部署的接入网设备120,继而通过核心网设备130连接到数据网络160。所述终端设备110也可称为用户设备(user equipment,UE)。
例如,所述终端设备110包括但不限于:手机、电脑,还可以为蜂窝电话、无绳电话、会话发起协议(session initiation protocol,SIP)电话、智能电话、无线本地环路(wireless local loop,WLL)站、个人数字助理(personal digital assistant,PDA)、电脑、膝上型计算机、手持式通信设备、手持式计算设备、卫星无线设备、无线调制解调器卡、电视机顶盒(set top box,STB)、用户驻地设备(customer premise equipment,CPE)和/或用于在无线系统上进行通信的其它设备。
在本申请的一些实施例中,可选地,所述接入网设备120也可称为接入网(access network,AN)/无线接入网(radio access network,RAN)设备。所述接入网设备120主要用于实现无线物理层功能、资源调度和无线资源管理、无线接入控制以及移动性管理等功能。所述接入网设备120也可称为5G-AN/5G-RAN节点。
例如,所述接入网设备120所述接入网设备120包括但不限于:接入节点(access point,AP)、下一代基站(NR NodeB,gNB)、中心单元(central unit,CU)和分布式单元(distributed unit,DU)分离形态的gNB、收发点(transmission receive point,TRP)、传输点(transmission point,TP)或某种其它接入节点。
在本申请的一些实施例中,可选地,所述核心网设备130主要用于实现呼叫的接续、计费,移动性管理、以及补充业务的实现等功能。
例如,所述核心网设备130可以包含管理设备140和网关设备150。所述接入网设备120可以分别与所述管理设备140和所述网关设备150进行通信,所述网关设备150可以与所述数据网络160进行通信。管理设备140主要用于终端设备的设备注册、安全认证、移动性管理和位置管理等,网关设备150主要用于与终端设备间建立通道,在该通道上转发终端设备和外部数据网络之间的数据包。
在本申请的一些实施例中,可选地,所述数据网络160可对应于多种不同的业务域,例如IP多媒体子系统(IP multimedia subsystem,IMS)、互联网Internet、互联网协议电视(internet protocol television,IPTV)、其他运营商业务域等,主要用于为终端设备提供多种数据业务服务。
例如,所述数据网络160可以包括服务器(包括提供组播业务的服务器)、路由器、网关等网络设备。
需要说明的是,图1仅为示例性架构图,不应理解为对本身的限制。
例如,除图1中所示功能单元之外,所述网络架构100还可以包括其他功能单元或功能实体。
图2是图1所示的系统架构的示例。
如图2所示,所述管理设备140可以包括管理设备接入和移动性管理功能(access & mobility function,AMF)、会话管理功能(session management function,SMF)、以及策略控制功能(policy control function,PCF)等功能单元。所述网关设备150可以包括用户面功能(user plane function,UPF)等功能单元,这些功能单元可以独立工作,也可以组合在一起实现某些控制功能。
换言之,AMF、SMF和PCF可以组合在一起作为管理设备,用于完成终端设备的接入鉴权、安全加密、位置注册等接入控制和移动性管理功能,以及用户面传输路径的建立、释放和更改等会话管理功能,以及分析一些切片(slice)相关的数据(如拥塞)、终端设备相关的数据的功能。UPF作为网关设备主要完成用户面数据的路由转发等功能,例如,负责对终端设备的数据报文过滤、数据传输/转发、 速率控制、生成计费信息等。
如图2所示,终端设备110可以通过NG接口1(NG1,N1)与AMF建立控制面信令连接;接入网设备120可以通过NG接口2(NG2,N2)与AMF建立控制面信令连接;接入网设备120可以通过NG接口3(NG3,N3)与UPF建立用户面数据连接;UPF可以通过NG接口4(NG4,N4)与SMF建立控制面信令连接;UPF可以通过NG接口6(NG6,N6)与数据网络交互用户面数据。
当然,图2仅为本申请示例,不应理解为对本申请的限制。
例如,所述终端设备110可以通过NR接口与接入网设备120建立空口连接,用于传输用户面数据和控制面信令;AMF可以通过NG接口11(NG11,N11)与SMF建立控制面信令连接;SMF可以通过NG接口7(NG7,N7)与PCF建立控制面信令连接。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例的网络构架100可以支持PDU连接业务,PDU连接业务指UE和DN之间交换PDU数据包的业务。
例如,所述终端设备110和数据网络160之间交换PDU数据包的业务。终端设备通过发起PDU会话的建立来实现PDU会话连接。建立单个PDU会话后,也就是建立了一条所述终端设备110和数据网络160之间的数据传输通道。换言之,PDU会话是指所述终端设备110和数据网络160之间进行通讯的过程。
此外,所述终端设备110可以建立多条PDU会话连接,每条PDU会话对应的SMF可以不同,也可以相同。例如,终端设备110可以通过不同的UPF连接到同一个数据网络上。换言之,PDU会话可同时有多个N6接口。连接每个N6接口的UPF称为PDU会话锚点,每个PDU会话锚点提供了一条到同一个数据网络的不同路径。终端设备110可以建立多个PDU会话,所述多个PDU会话中的每一个PDU会话在RAN侧可以包括多个数据无线承载(DRB)。
在本申请的一些实施例中,可选地,PDU数据包可以包括以下信息中的至少一项号码、国际移动用户识别码(International Mobile Subscriber Identity,IMSI)、国际移动设备识别码(International Mobile Equipment Identity,MEI)、PDU会话标识(ID)、会话类型(IPv4、IPv6、IPv4v6以及以太帧)、上下行速率、计费ID、漫游状态信息、终端设备的IP信息、策略控制功能设备(Policy Control function,PCF)信息、服务质量(Quality of service,QoS)信息、隧道信息、目的地地址、会话管理功能(Session Management Function,SMF)标识、切片信息(若支持)、默认数据无线承载(Data Radio Bearer,DRB)信息、数据网名、接入管理功能(Access Management Function,AMF)信息、用户位置信息、会话管理信息、UPF ID、在线计费标识、离线计费标识等相关信息。
需要说明的是,所述终端设备110在传输数据之前,需要接入到网络切片。换言之,可以通过网络切片建立所述终端设备110和数据网络160的用户面连接。例如,接入网设备120选择出能够支持所要求的网络切片的AMF之后,可以通过网络切片建立一个或多个连接到数据网络160的PDU会话。可选的,不同的网络切片具有不同的单一网络切片选择辅助信息(Single Network Slice Selection Assistance Information,S-NSSAI)。换言之,S-NSSAI可用于标识网络切片。
每一个PDU会话可以具有多个服务质量流(Quality of Service flow,QoS Flow),由此,可将将隶属于不同网络切片和不同的传输性能要求(如可靠性、传输时延、传输速率等)的数据通信由不同的协议数据单元(Protocol Data Unit,PDU)会话(session)承载。例如,网络可以将增强移动超宽带(Enhance Mobile Broadband,eMBB)和高可靠低时延通信(Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency Communication,URLLC)业务分别在不同的PDU会话上进行承载。
以下行方向为例,核心网设备130的非接入层(Non-Access Stratum,NAS)服务数据流(Service data flow,SDF)模板(template)将来自应用层不同的数据包进行分类映射至不同PDU session里的不同QoS Flow,并且使其在不同的PDU session中发送给接入网设备120。接入网设备120根据QoS Flow的标识(ID)信息将其映射至不同的数据无线承载(Data Radio Bearer,DRB)并通过空口上发送给UE。同理,对于上行数据,也可以采用类似的操作。
为便于理解本申请提供的方案,下面对PLMN选择(即选网)相关方案进行说明。
终端设备在刚开机或进入空闲态后会进行公共陆地移动网络(Public Land Mobile Network,PLMN)选择(selection)。
需要进行PLMN选择时,终端设备的芯片会从用户识别模块(subscriber identity module,SIM)卡内读取归属PLMN选择器与接入技术(HPLMN Selector with Access Technology),用户控制的具有接入技术的PLMN选择器(User Controlled PLMN Selector with Access Technology),禁止PLMN(Forbidden PLMNs),等效归属PLMN(Equivalent HPLMN),运营商控制的具有接入技术的PLMN选择器(Operator controlled PLMN Selector with Access Technology)等文件。
芯片的非接入层(Non-Access Stratum,NAS)会触发接入层读取周围小区的系统信息,从系统信 息中获得周围小区所属的PLMN标识(identification,ID);接入层获取PLMN ID后,将其上报给NAS层,NAS层从中选择最终的PLMN。另外,接入层还会将低于-110dB的PLMN的信号质量也报给NAS层,也就是接入层上报的信息包括PLMN ID和信号质量。
NAS层选择PLMN时遵循以下顺序:
1、HPLMN(如果EHPLMN列表不存在或为空)或最高优先级EHPLMN(等效HPLMN)可用(如果EHPLMN列表存在)(either the HPLMN(if the EHPLMN list is not present or is empty)or the highest priority EHPLMN(equivalent HPLMN)that is available(if the EHPLMN list is present))。
可选的,HPLMN ID从SIM卡的国际移动用户识别码(International Mobile Subscriber Identification Number,IMSI)中可以获得。例如,HPLMN可以是IMSI中的移动国家码(Mobile Country Codes,MCC)和移动网络码(Mobile Network Codes,MNC)。
可选的,SIM卡中具有接入技术的HPLMN选择器(HPLMN Selector with Access Technology)排的越靠前,其优先级越高。例如,SIM卡中存在具有接入技术的HPLMN选择器(HPLMN Selector with Access Technology)排的越靠前优先级越高。示例性地,针对4G卡,若接入技术配置为大于或等于2G的LTE,则终端设备在选择PLMN时会优先选择4G网络和LTE接入技术,当周围没有4G覆盖时,终端设备才选择2G网络和LTE接入技术。
可选的,EHPLMN可以认为和HPLMN为UE提供相同的服务,即EHPLMN和HPLMN的作用相同。接入技术的优先级也同样适用于EHPLMN。
2、SIM中“用户控制PLMN选择器的接入技术”数据文件中每个PLMN/接入技术组合(按优先级顺序)(each PLMN/access technology combination in the"User Controlled PLMN Selector with Access Technology"data file in the SIM(in priority order))。
3、SIM中(按优先顺序)或存储在ME中(按优先顺序)的“运营商控制的具有接入技术的PLMN选择器”数据文件中的每个PLMN/接入技术组合(each PLMN/access technology combination in the"Operator Controlled PLMN Selector with Access Technology"data file in the SIM(in priority order)or stored in the ME(in priority order))。
可选的,在“运营商控制的具有接入技术的PLMN选择器”数据文件中,每个PLMN后面会跟随一个或多个接入技术,排的越靠前优先级越高。
4、以随机顺序接收高质量信号的其他PLMN/接入技术组合(other PLMN/access technology combinations with received high quality signal in random order)。
5、按信号质量降序排列的其他PLMN/接入技术组合(other PLMN/access technology combinations in order of decreasing signal quality)。
第五代移动通信技术(5-Generation,5G)网络从版本(release)15开始存在网络切片。每个网络切片可以对应到一个或多个终端的业务。网络切片的标识可以为单一网络切片选择辅助信息(Single-Network Slice Selection Assistance Information,S-NSSAI)。S-NSSAI包括两部分,即切片/服务类型(Slice/Service type,SST)和切片差分器(Slice Differentiator,SD)。SST可以是标准值,例如1至5。SST和SD也可以是非标准值。一个或多个S-NSSAI的组合为NSSAI。
图3示出了根据本申请实施例无线通信方法210的示意性流程图,该方法210可以由终端设备执行。图3中所示的终端设备可以是如图1所示的终端设备。
如图3所示,所述方法210包括:

示例性地,所述PLMN列表中增加所述第一PLMN对应的是否支持或允许基于网络切片的选网的第一指示信息。终端设备如果需要执行基于网络切片的选网,则只考虑支持或允许基于网络切片的选网的PLMN。

如图9所示,所述方法430可包括:
S431,UE向AMF发送注册请求。
UE在刚开始,也就是第一次选网的时候,还使用现有的方式,然后,UE向AMF发起注册,在注册消息中携带请求(requested)NSSAI和UE支持基于网络切片选网的能力指示。
S432,AMF向UDM索要签约数据。
AMF向UDM索要UE的签约数据,同时发送UE支持基于网络切片选网的能力指示,还可以携带requested NSSAI。
S433,UDM基于UE能力和切片信息来确定PLMN顺序,可选的,可以确定PLMN重选计时器。
UDM根据UE能力和切片信息来决定按照优先级排列的PLMN列表(一个或多个),支持越多切片的PLMN优先级越高。其中,切片信息可以为:
请求NSSAI,如果收到,也就是基于UE需要的网络切片来排序PLMN;
签约(subscribed)NSSAI,UDM本身就保存的UE签约的网络切片,也就是基于UE可以使用的网络切片来排序PLMN。
也即是说,网络可以基于网络切片信息来判断UE重选PLMN的计时器。例如,多个切片对应多个时长,选择最大或最小时长。可以是每个PLMN有一个计时器,或者,只有一个计时器。如果每个PLMN一个计时器,UE可以按照时长最大或最小的计时器来计时。当计时器到期后,UE进行PLMN重选。
S434a,UDM向AMF发送签约数据,包括PLMN列表。
S435a,AMF向UE发送注册接受/拒绝,包括PLMN列表。
S434b,UDM向AMF发送签约数据,包括PLMN列表。

S436b,UDM向AMF更新签约数据,包括PLMN列表。
S437b,AMF向UE发送下行传输消息,包括PLMN列表。
在S434a~S437b中、UDM将S433中确定的PLMN列表(包含计时器)发给UE。可以是在注册过程中发给AMF,AMF再放在注册响应消息中发送给UE。或者,可以在注册完成之后,发给AMF,AMF再放在下行传输(DL transport)消息中发送给UE;UE收到后,根据PLMN列表和计时器来进行PLMN重选。如果没有计时器,UE可以立即或者等进入空闲态之后进行PLMN重选。
