目前5G的标准化正在进行,5G的演进之路较为复杂,目前提出了8种5G网络架构,5G网络的部署难以一蹴而就,需要逐步进行,而目前4G的LTE网络的部署非常广泛,为了避免短期内的高投入以及降低部署风险,运行商大多采用保留LTE网络的5G网络架构,选项4是5G网络架构中的一种,是NE-DC架构,选项4同时引入了5G核心网和5G基站,但5G基站没有直接替代4G基站,在选项4中,5G核心网作为核心网,5G基站作为主站,4G基站作为辅站,5G基站与4G基站之间通过NE-DC功能进行通信,4G基站与5G核心网之间没有NG-U通道,5G核心网的媒体数据无法发送到4G基站,5G核心网的数据只能发送给5G基站,再由5G基站进行数据分流后通过XN-U通道发送给4G基站。按照3GPP的规定,在NE-DC场景下,其中4G的LTE网络必须升级为eLTE网络,即LTE网络需要添加5G的协议层,并且具备与5G核心网进行信令和数据互通的能力,必须引入SDAP(Service Discovery Application Profile,服务发现应用规范)协议层、5G QoS(Quality of Service,服务质量)架构、Session(会话)和QoS Flow(QoS流),RRC Inactive状态等,eLTE网络必须具备处理NG(无线接入网和5G核心网之间的接口)控制信令和媒体数据的能力,具备处理XN(NG-RAN节点之间的网络接口)的控制信令和媒体数据的能力。但对于选项4,由于4G的LTE网络与5G核心网无NG接口,并不传递控制信令和媒体数据,在此架构下只需要支持eLTE网络的XN媒体数据处理能力即可,不需要支持NG的控制信令和XN的控制信令、媒体数据处理能力,因此将LTE网络升级为eLTE网络,不仅增加了运营商在原有LTE上升级的资源消耗,也增加了设备商实现的复杂度。
基于此,本申请实施例提供一种NE-DC架构的适配方法、运行控制装置、基站设备及存储介质,能够在不升级LTE的情况下,完成NE-DC功能,使得NE-DC架构易于实现。
下面结合附图,对本申请实施例作阐述。
参照图1,图1是本申请实施例提供的一种NE-DC架构的示意图,在该架构中,5G核心网作为核心网,用户终端连接一个5G基站作为主站,用户终端连接一个4G基站作为辅站,4G基站与5G核心网之间没有GN-U通道,4G基站通过XN接口连接5G基站,4G基站中嵌有适配模块,该适配模块能够适配选项4的NE-DC架构中5G基站向4G基站发送的控制信令中的5G概念信息,将该5G信息转换成4G的LTE系统可以识别和运行的信息,可以使得NE-DC功能正常运转。
需要说明的是,该适配模块的开关需要在网管上进行配置,该适配模块不需要在4G基站上增加额外的硬件,只增加单独的软件模块,本申请实施例提供的NE-DC架构易于实现,且该架构不需要将4G基站的LTE网络升级为eLTE网络,减少了4G基站的LTE系统的物理内存资源的占用,尽可能减少了LTE系统中RRC规格的下降。
参照图2,图2是本申请实施例提供的一种NE-DC架构的适配方法,该适配方法应用于4G基站,该4G基站中嵌有适配模块,该适配方法包括但不限于步骤S100、步骤S200和步骤S300。
步骤S100,接收来自5G基站的消息,该消息包括第一信息,第一信息为5G概念信息。
需要说明的是,该消息可以是SN Addition Request(辅站添加请求)消息,也可以是SN Modification Request(辅站修改请求)消息,而且在不同的场景下,第一信息是不同的。
步骤S200,将消息投递给适配模块。
步骤S300,通过适配模块,将消息中的第一信息转换为LTE系统可以识别和运行的第二信息。
在一实施例中,5G基站向4G基站发送包括第一信息的消息,其中第一信息为5G概念的信息,4G基站接收该消息,并将该消息投递给适配模块,适配模块将该消息中的第一信息转换为4G的LTE系统可以识别和运行的第二信息,即4G基站通过适配模块,可以运行和识别来自5G基站的5G概念信息,从而使得NE-DC功能可以运转。
需要说明的是,5G架构中,4G基站需要识别来自5G NR(New Radio,新空口)的5G概念信息,按照3GPP,需要将LTE网络升级为eLTE网络,但本实施例在选项4的NE-DC架构中,通过在4G基站嵌入适配模块,实现NE-DC功能,不需要将LTE网络升级为eLTE网络,使得5G架构中的选项4易于实现,即NE-DC架构更容易实现,且减少了4G基站的LTE系统的物理内存资源的占用,尽可能地减少了LTE系统中RRC规格的下降。
在一实施例中,当第一信息为QoS Flow ID所对应的QoS参数的5QI,如图3所示,本申请实施例提供一种NE-DC架构的适配方法,图3中的步骤S310是图2的步骤S300的细化步骤,且该适配方法还包括步骤S320。
步骤S310,将5QI的取值按照顺序匹配为LTE系统的QCI(QoS Class Identifier,QoS类标识符)的值。
步骤S320,将5QI对应的QoS Flow映射的NR系统的DRB(Data Radio Bearer,数据无线承载)转换为LTE系统的DRB。
需要说明的是,5QI是5G概念信息,用于指向一个5G QoS特性,5QI的取值为0-255;而QCI是LTE网络可以识别和运行的信息,QCI的取值为0-255,适配模块将5QI按顺序转换为取 值相同的QCI。
还需要说明的是,5G的NR系统中,5QI映射有DRB,4G的LTE中QCI也映射有DRB,为了使得NE-DC功能能够正常运行,既要将5QI转换为QCI,也需要为QCI匹配相应的DRB。
在一实施例中,4G基站接收来自5G基站的消息,消息中携带QoS Flow ID所对应的QoS参数的5QI,4G基站将该消息投递给适配模块,以使适配模块将5QI按照顺序匹配为QCI的值,并将5QI对应的QoS Flow映射的NR系统的DRB转换为QCI对应的LTE系统的DRB,从而完成NE-DC功能,4G基站不将LTE网络升级为eLTE网络,通过适配模块,也可以识别5G基站的控制信令。
需要说明的是,5G基站的消息可以是SN Addition Request消息,也可以是SN Modification Request消息。
在一实施例中,若来自5G基站的消息中携带QoS Flow与NR系统的DRB的映射关系,则适配模块将该映射关系中的NR系统的DRB直接转换成LTE系统的DRB,转换后的DRB映射于QCI。
在一实施例中,若来自5G基站的消息中不携带QoS Flow与NR系统的DRB的映射关系,则适配模块从网管中的备用DRB的范围内为LTE系统重新分配DRB。
本领域技术人员应当理解的是,当需要为LTE系统重新分配DRB,在网管上配置时需要使得备用DRB的范围与NR系统的DRB的范围不重叠。
参照图4,图4是选项4下的辅站添加场景的适配流程图,在本申请的一个实施例中,网管配置NE-DC模式为选项4,打开适配模块,5G基站收到用户终端的测量报告,进行4G基站的双连接添加,5G基站向4G基站发送SN Addition Request消息,该4G基站嵌有适配模块,4G基站将SN Addition Request消息投递给适配模块,适配模块将该消息中携带的QoS Flow ID所对应的QoS参数的5QI,按照顺序匹配为LTE系统的QCI;若该消息中携带QoS Flow与NR系统的DRB的映射关系,则适配模块将该映射关系中的NR系统的DRB直接转换成LTE系统的DRB,若该消息不携带QoS Flow与NR系统的DRB的映射关系,则从网管中的备用DRB的范围内为LTE系统重新分配DRB,使得转换后的DRB与转换的QCI形成映射,适配模块将转换后的QCI以及QCI映射到的DRB返回至LTE系统,使得4G基站的LTE系统可以识别和运行来自5G基站的SN Addition Request消息,使得NE-DC功能可以正常运行。
参照图5,图5是选项4下的辅站修改场景的适配流程图,在本申请的另一个实施例中,网管配置NE-DC模式为选项4,打开适配模块,5G基站向4G基站发送SN Modification Request消息,该4G基站嵌有适配模块,4G基站将SN Modification Request消息投递给适配模块,适配模块将该消息中携带的QoS Flow ID所对应的QoS参数的5QI,按照顺序匹配为LTE系统的QCI;若该消息中携带QoS Flow与NR系统的DRB的映射关系,则适配模块将该映射关系中的NR系统的DRB直接转换成LTE系统的DRB,若该消息不携带QoS Flow与NR系统的DRB的映射关系,则从网管中的备用DRB的范围内为LTE系统重新分配DRB,使得转换后的DRB与转换的QCI形成映射,适配模块将转换后的QCI以及QCI映射到的DRB返回至LTE系统,使得4G基站的LTE系统可以识别和运行来自5G基站的SN Modification Request消息,使得NE-DC功能可以正常运行。
参照图6,本申请另一实施例提供一种NE-DC架构的适配方法,该适配方法还包括步骤S400。
步骤S400,根据5G基站的消息和第二信息,通过适配模块,发送相应的回复消息至5G基 站。
在一实施例中,5G基站向4G基站发送消息,4G基站需要返回相应的回复消息至5G基站,4G基站通过适配模块将5G基站的消息中5G概念信息转换为LTE系统可以识别和运行的第二信息,再根据5G基站的消息的内容和转换后的第二信息,通过适配模块产生回复消息,并将回复消息发送给5G基站,4G基站不需要将LTE网络升级为eLTE网络,可以通过适配模块完成NE-DC功能,识别并运行来自5G基站的消息,且可以通过适配模块,向5G基站发送包括5G概念信息的回复消息,从而使得NE-DC功能正常运行,NE-DC架构易于实现。
需要说明的是,回复消息中包括5G概念信息,适配模块产生该回复消息,并将该回复消息返回至4G基站的LTE系统,LTE系统将该回复消息发送至5G基站。
在一实施例中,当5G基站的消息为SN Addition Request消息,第一信息为Desired Activity Notification Level的取值,如图7所示,图7是图6中步骤S300的子步骤流程图,步骤S300包括但不限于步骤D310和D320。
步骤D310,根据Desired Activity Notification Level的取值,保存该SN Addition Request消息中相应的QoS Flow与DRB的映射关系。
步骤D320,检测该映射关系中的DRB的粒度,得到DRB的检测粒度。
如图8所示,图8是图6中步骤S400的子步骤流程图,步骤S400包括但不限于步骤S410和S420。
步骤S410,根据DRB的检测粒度,确认DRB是否处于不活动状态;
步骤S420,在确认DRB处于不活动状态的情况下,根据Desired Activity Notification Level的取值,通过适配模块,发送相应的Activity Notification消息至5G基站。
下面结合附图作详细说明,如图9所示,图9是在选项4用户不活动场景下的适配流程图,在一实施例中,网管配置NE-DC模式为选项4,打开适配模块,在选项4的用户不活动场景下,5G基站向4G基站发送SN Addition Request消息,该消息中的第一信息为Desired Activity Notification Level的取值,4G基站接收SN Addition Request消息,并将该消息投递给适配模块,适配模块可以根据Desired Activity Notification Level的取值,相应地将该SN Addition Request消息中的QoS Flow、PDU Session或者UE的活动状态转换为DRB的活动状态,即根据Desired Activity Notification Level的取值,保存该SN Addition Request消息中相应的QoS Flow与DRB的映射关系,检测该映射关系中的DRB的粒度,得到DRB的检测粒度,并将DRB的检测粒度返回至4G基站的LTE系统;4G基站可以根据DRB的检测粒度,确认DRB处于不活动状态,在确认DRB处于不活动状态的情况下,根据Desired Activity Notification Level的取值,通过适配模块,发送相应的Activity Notification消息至5G基站。
需要说明的是,Desired Activity Notification Level的取值不同,适配模块保存的映射关系也不同,相应地,DRB的检测范围也不同,4G基站给5G基站发送的Activity Notification消息的内容也不同。
还需要说明的是,Activity Notification消息中包括5G概念信息,4G基站使适配模块产生Activity Notification消息,适配模块将Activity Notification消息返回给4G基站的LTE系统,4G基站再将Activity Notification消息发送给5G基站,本领域技术人员应当理解的是,虽然图9中未示出这一过程,但不对本实施例构成限定。
在一实施例中,若Desired Activity Notification Level的取值为QoS Flow,适配模块保存该 SN Addition Request消息中该QoS Flow与DRB的映射关系,检测该映射关系中DRB的粒度,得到DRB的检测粒度,将DRB的检测粒度返回给4G基站的LTE系统,4G基站可以根据DRB的检测粒度,确定该QoS Flow映射的DRB处于不活动状态,且将该DRB的活动状态作为该QoS Flow的活动状态,从而使适配模块产生第一Activity Notification消息,该第一Activity Notification消息携带该QoS Flow,适配模块将第一Activity Notification消息返回给4G基站的LTE系统,LTE系统将第一Activity Notification消息发送给5G基站。
在另一实施例中,若Desired Activity Notification Level的取值为PDU(Protocol Data Unit,协议数据单元)Session,适配模块保存SN Addition Request消息中该PDU Session中的QoS Flow与DRB的映射关系,检测该映射关系中DRB的粒度,得到DRB的检测粒度,将DRB的检测粒度返回给4G基站的LTE系统,4G基站可以根据DRB的检测粒度,确定该PDU Session中的QoS Flow映射的DRB处于不活动状态,且将该DRB的活动状态作为该PDU Session的活动状态,从而使适配模块产生第二Activity Notification消息,该第二Activity Notification消息携带该PDU Session并标明该PDU Session处于不活动状态,适配模块将第二Activity Notification消息返回给4G基站的LTE系统,LTE系统将第二Activity Notification消息发送给5G基站。
在另一实施例中,若Desired Activity Notification Level的取值为UE(User Equipment,用户设备),适配模块保存该SN Addition Request消息中该UE的所有PDU Session中的QoS Flow与DRB的映射关系,检测该映射关系中DRB的粒度,得到DRB的检测粒度,将DRB的检测粒度返回给4G基站的LTE系统,4G基站可以根据DRB的检测粒度,确定该UE的所有PDU Session中的QoS Flow映射的DRB处于不活动状态,且将该DRB的活动状态作为该UE的活动状态,从而使适配模块产生第三Activity Notification消息,该第三Activity Notification消息标明该UE处于不活动状态,适配模块将第三Activity Notification消息返回给4G基站的LTE系统,LTE系统将第三Activity Notification消息发送给5G基站。
参照图10,当来自5G基站的消息为SN Modification Request消息,第一信息为Lower Layer presence status change(下层状态存在改变)字段,本申请另一实施例提供一种NE-DC架构的适配方法,图10是图2中步骤S300的子步骤流程图,步骤S300包括但不限于步骤T310和步骤T320。
步骤T310,通过适配模块确认SN Modification Request消息中携带Lower Layer presence status change字段。
步骤T320,若Lower Layer presence status change字段的取值为release lower layers(释放下层),则使适配模块输出第一指令,第一指令用于释放RLC(Radio Link Control,无线链路控制)和MAC(Media Access Control,媒体访问控制)实例;若Lower Layer presence status change字段的取值为release lower layers(暂停下层),则使适配模块输出第二指令,第二指令用于挂起RLC和MAC实例。
下面结合附图作详细说明,如图11所示,图11是在选项4的RRC Inactive状态的场景中的适配流程图,在本申请的一个实施例中,当5G基站按照策略,使用户终端处于RRC Inactive状态,则通过SN Modification Request中的Lower Layer presence status change告知4G基站,即5G基站向4G基站发送SN Modification Request消息,该SN Modification Request消息携带Lower Layer presence status change字段,4G基站接收该SN Modification Request消息,并将该消息投递给适配模块,适配模块确定该SN Modification Request消息中携带Lower Layer presence status change字段,若Lower Layer presence status change的取值为release lower layers,则适配模块输出第一指令,并将第一指令返回至4G基站的LTE系统,4G基站可以根据第一指令,释放RLC和MAC实例,若Lower Layer presence status change的取值为suspend lower layers,则适配模块输出第二指令,并将第二指令返回至4G基站的LTE系统,4G基站可以根据第二指令,挂起RLC和MAC实例。
