可选的,所述第一数据包还包括第一信息,所述第一信息包括第一指示信息,所述第一指示信息用于指示如下一项:

上述第一数据包在所述接收节点的目标功能终结,可以理解为上述接收节点的目标功能接收到第一数据包之后不再传递该数据包至其他节点。上述第一数据包在所述接收节点的目标功能转发,可以理解为上述接收节点的目标功能接收到第一数据包之后,不对该数 据包进行处理,而是直接将该第一数据包进行转发。上述第一数据包在所述接收节点的目标功能处理后转发,可以理解为上述接收节点的目标功能接收到第一数据包之后对该第一数据包进行处理,并将处理后的数据包进行转发。
其中,上述接收节点的目标功能对上述第一数据包或者处理后的数据包进行转发的目标节点可以根据预先获取的转发配置信息(例如,转发节点信息、转发路由信息等)和第一数据包的包头中的至少一项确定。例如,在上述第一数据包为根据数据面的控制信息生成的数据包的情况下,可以根据第一数据包的包头确定目标节点;在上述第一数据包为根据数据包的数据生成的数据包的情况下,可以预先接收根据数据面的控制信息生成的数据包,该数据包可以包括上述转发配置信息,进而可以基于上述转发配置信息确定第一数据包的目标节点。
示例性的,可以在第一数据包的包头携带第一信息,该第一信息包括第一指示信息,该第一指示信息指示接收节点的目标功能对该第一数据包的处理行为。例如,目标功能生成的协议数据单元(Protocol Data Unit,PDU)中的业务数据单元(Service Data Unit,SDU)的包头包括第一指示信息。
可以理解的是,接收节点的目标功能在接收到上述第一数据包的情况下,可以根据上述第一指示信息确定要终结该第一数据包传输,或者转发该第一数据包至目标节点,或者处理该第一数据包并转发处理后的第一数据包至目标节点。
本实施例通过第一数据包携带第一指示信息指示接收节点的目标功能对该第一数据包的处理行为,有利于接收节点的目标功能明确对第一数据包的处理行为,进而可以保证接收节点的目标功能对第一数据包处理的准确性。

步骤b2、AMF根据数据面承载指示信息选择合适的SMF(例如支持数据面传输QoS管理的SMF)。AMF将N1SM container消息转发给所确定的SMF。

示例一:数据提供功能为UE,数据面控制功能为核心网功能,数据面控制功能协调数据收集,且数据传输在核心网功能终结。
本示例以感知数据的收集和传输的第一种模式为例进行说明。对于感知数据的收集和传输的第一种模式,假设无线接入网节点和/或核心网感知功能(Sensing Function,SF)已经确定接收感知信号和测量的UE,并且所确定的UE支持数据面。
数据面控制功能根据感知、定位、NWDAF等多个数据需求确定所需收集的数据,以及确定是否基于数据面承载进行数据传输。如果确定基于数据面承载进行数据传输,那么核心网功能向UE发送建立数据面承载的消息,例如,核心网功能可以基于第一协议向UE发送建立数据面承载的消息,其中,数据面承载的建立方式可以参见前述实施例的相 关说明。因为数据经数据面控制功能进行协同,数据面承载的类型可以为在核心网数据功能终结的数据承载,在该情况下,核心网数据功能可以存储收到的所有数据,并将对应感知功能所需的数据抽取后发送给核心网感知功能;或者数据面承载的类型可以为在核心网数据功能处理后并转发的数据承载,在该情况下,核心网数据功能可以对不同时间/位置的多个感知测量数据进行滤波等处理,以产生更少量的感知测量数据和/或跟高精度的感知测量数据,然后将处理后的数据转发至核心网感知功能。示例性的,在本示例中,UE、RAN和CN的协议栈可以如图8所示。
如果确定不基于数据面承载进行数据传输,那么第一协议即用于传输数据面的控制信息,也用于传输数据面的数据。
具体的,核心网设备可以基于第一协议向UE发送数据收集请求(或称为数据收集配置或测量配置等),所述数据收集请求由数据面控制功能确定。其中,所述数据收集请求可以包括如下至少一项:
测量对象(Measurement Object),用于指定要测量的内容;可选地,上述测量对象还可以包括小区特有的偏移量,要忽略的黑名单小区和考虑测量的白名单小区;
上报配置(Reporting Configuration),用于指定报告应该如何完成,这可以是周期性的,也可以是事件触发的;
测量ID(Measurement ID),用于标识如何报告特定对象的测量值;一个测量对象可以有多个报告配置,一个报告配置可以应用于多个测量对象。每个测量对象到上报配置的关联都使用一个惟一的ID。当UE发送一个测量报告(MeasurementReport)消息时,该MeasurementReport消息中会包含一个ID和相关的度量(即各个测量量的测量结果);
测量间隔(Measurement Gap),用于指示UE可用于执行测量的周期等。
其中,在上报配置中可以配置数据面承载的ID,UE根据所配置的数据面承载的ID,基于数据面承载进行感知数据上报,核心网数据功能接收到上述数据面承载上的数据后,根据数据面承载的类型,将该数据转发给核心网感知功能。
示例二:数据提供功能为UE,数据面控制功能为核心网功能,数据传输在核心网功能终结。
本示例以感知数据的收集和传输的第二种模式为例进行说明。对于感知数据的收集和传输的第二种模式,假设无线接入网节点和/或核心网感知功能已经确定接收感知信号和测量的UE,并且所确定的UE支持数据面。
数据面控制功能接收感知配置信息,例如,数据面控制功能从核心网感知功能接收感知配置信息,并可基于第一协议将所述感知配置信息转发给UE的感知服务功能。其中,感知配置信息包含目标指示信息,用于指示第一协议转发感知配置信息以及需第一协议透明转发的感知配置信息(如果为了防止第一协议解析,上述感知配置信息可采用加密方式传输)。可选的,所述感知配置信息的SDU包含感知服务功能ID或可用于确定合适的感 知服务功能的信息。其中感知服务功能ID用于核心网数据功能根据感知服务功能ID将所接收的数据转发给所指示的感知服务功能。上述用于确定合适的感知服务功能的信息可以是感知服务类型(如雨量监测、测速等)、地理位置信息等,无线接入网节点根据所获得的感知服务类型、地理位置信息、感知服务功能的负载信息等确定合适的感知服务功能,并将所接收的数据转发给所确定的感知服务功能。
数据面控制功能确定是否基于数据面承载进行数据传输,如果确定基于数据面承载进行数据传输,那么核心网功能向UE发送建立数据面承载的消息,例如,核心网功能可以基于第一协议向UE发送建立数据面承载的消息,其中,数据面承载的建立方式可以参见前述实施例的相关说明。因为数据最终传输至核心网感知功能,数据面承载的类型为在核心网数据功能转发的数据承载,或者在核心网数据功能处理后转发的数据承载。对于后者核心网数据功能可以对不同时间/位置的多个感知测量数据进行滤波等处理,以产生更少量的感知测量数据和/或跟高精度的感知测量数据,然后将处理后的数据转发至核心网感知功能。示例性的,在本示例中,UE、RAN和CN的协议栈可以如图9所示。其中,核心网数据功能、核心网感知功能和核心网AI功能可以采用服务化接口方案,服务化接口方案需支持高效的数据传输(如文件传输协议(File Transfer Protocol,FTP)或卡夫卡等方式)。
如果确定不基于数据面承载进行数据传输,那么第一协议即用于传输数据面的控制信息,也用于传输数据面的数据。
需要说明的是,对于UE上报配置,有两种方式。一种方式是在上述数据面控制功能基于第一协议转发的感知配置信息的SDU配置数据面承载的ID,从而UE根据所配置的数据面承载的ID,基于数据面承载进行感知数据上报,核心网数据功能接收到数据面承载的数据后根据数据面承载的类型,将该数据转发核心网感知功能。另一种方式是核心网设备(例如,数据面控制功能)基于第一协议发送数据收集请求给UE,其中,所述数据收集请求至少包括数据面承载的ID,这样也可以实现UE根据所配置的数据面承载的ID,基于数据面承载进行感知数据上报,核心网数据功能接收到数据面承载的数据后根据数据面承载的类型,将该数据转发核心网感知功能。
示例三:数据提供功能为UE,数据面控制功能为为无线接入网节点,数据传输在无线接入网节点终结。
本示例与示例一或示例二的主要差别在于,如果所需数据需要经核心网数据功能发送给无线接入网节点,那么通常说明所获得数据的部分信息适合无线接入网节点获取(例如UE持久性标识、位置信息等)。因此,在本实施例中侧重于核心网数据功能需要对数据进行预处理,从而删除或转换不适合RAN获得的信息。例如,将UE持久性标识转换为随机临时标识等。其中,本示例的感知数据收集过程可以参见前述示例一或示例二的相关说明,在此不做赘述。
如果确定基于数据面承载进行数据传输,那么核心网功能向UE发送建立数据面承载的消息,例如,核心网功能可以基于第一协议向UE发送建立数据面承载的消息,其中,数据面承载的建立方式可以参见前述实施例的相关说明。因为数据最终传输至无线接入网感知功能,数据面承载的类型是在核心网数据功能处理后转发,核心网数据功能根据所获得的信息对数据进行处理,并将处理后的数据发给无线接入网节点。示例性的,在该示例中,UE、RAN和CN的协议栈可以如图10所示,其中,在图10中,核心网功能左侧透传第二协议数据的RAN节点和核心网功能右侧接收所需数据RAN节点可以是不同节点。
需要说明的是,类似5G协议中接入网节点和核心网AMF之间的接口称为N2接口,接入网节点和核心网UPF之间的接口称为N3接口,上述附图中涉及的Nx表示接入网节点和核心网数据功能之间接口,NxAP表示Nx接口的应用协议,用于支持Nx接口管理和数据面消息交互。
综上可知,本申请实施例在UE和CN之间引入第一协议和第二协议中的至少一项,第一协议基于NAS协议,第二协议基于接入网协议层(例如,6G-AN协议层),或第二协议基于传输协议层和接入网协议层。引入NAS数据控制容器(如NAS-DC)和数据面承载。对于NAS数据控制容器通过在NAS数据控制容器的SDU中的第一指示信息指示该数据包是控制信息,还是控制信息和数据;以及指示数据包在接收节点的处理方式。对于数据面承载,可在数据面承载添加的配置信息中指示数据面承载的类型。如果数据面承载默认为数据承载,并且不同数据的处理方式灵活多变,那么也可以在数据面承载的SDU中通过第一指示信息指示该数据包在接收节点的处理方式。其中,数据面承载的类型从所承载的数据是控制还是数据可以分为控制、数据、控制和数据。可选的,第一协议默认用于传输数据面的控制信息,数据面承载默认为数据承载。从核心网数据功能对该承载的处理功能/方式可以分为在接收节点终结,在接收节点转发,在接收节点处理后转发。
此外,本申请实施例提供的方案支持控制和数据分离,该方案可根据数据收集需求、移动网络内数据传输需求提供统一承载支持控制和数据的传输,也可以提供不同类型的承载支持控制和数据分离的传输。并且,该方案还可以支持所传输的数据根据需要终结在核心网数据功能节点、或经核心网数据功能转发、或经核心网数据功能处理后转发。同时,该方案既支持基于数据收集协同的数据收集和传输,也支持非数据面功能决策的数据收集和传输。因此,该方案可以满足UE和CN间多种潜在的数据收集和移动网络内数据传输需求。
