The modules and/or sub-modules and/or units and/or sub-units described in the embodiments of the present application may be implemented by software or hardware. The described modules and/or sub-modules and/or units and/or sub-units may also be provided in a processor, which may be described as: a processor includes a transmitting unit, an obtaining unit, a determining unit, and a first processing unit. Wherein the names of these modules and/or sub-modules and/or units and/or sub-units in some cases do not constitute a limitation of the modules and/or sub-modules and/or units and/or sub-units themselves.

As another aspect, the present application also provides a computer-readable storage medium, which may be contained in the apparatus described in the above embodiments; or may be separate and not incorporated into the device. The computer readable storage medium carries one or more programs which, when executed by a device, cause the device to perform functions including: acquiring a first target speed measuring node and a second target speed measuring node of target equipment aiming at a target service, wherein the first target speed measuring node corresponds to a target network exit node of an operator network of a first area where the target equipment is located, the second target speed measuring node corresponds to a target server for processing the target service, the target server is located in a second area, and the first area and the second area are communicated through a backbone network; determining operator network time delay from the target device to the target network exit node according to a first speed measurement signal sent by the target device to the first target speed measurement node; determining an end-to-end network delay from the target device to the target server according to a second speed measurement signal sent by the target device to the second target speed measurement node; and determining the network quality when the target equipment executes the target service according to the operator network delay and the end-to-end network delay.

With the development of communication technology, 5G (5th Generation mobile networks, fifth Generation mobile communication technology) networks are becoming mainstream communication technologies.

To accommodate the development of 5G technology, the target operator may respectively arrange the operator networks 302 shown in fig. 3 in different provinces, cities and other areas, and the operator networks of different provinces and cities may communicate through the backbone network 303. For example, the target operator may place one operator network in province a and one operator network in city B, which is not limited by this disclosure. It is understood that all communication devices in province a (or city B) that use the target carrier may communicate through the carrier network of the target carrier in province a (or city B).

In some embodiments, the operator network 302 of the target operator in the target area may include an access network, a bearer network, a core network, and the like, which are composed of various base stations, and the core network may perform information transmission with an external network through the target network egress node. In a 5G network, the target network egress node of the operator network core network may be a UPF (User Plane Function) node.

The user plane function UPF may implement a network address translation function, i.e. may translate an operator network internal website into a public network address.

Generally, operator networks set by different operators in different regions are closed and not open to the outside, and network elements in the operator networks cannot be known from the outside.

Referring to fig. 3, in order to determine the network quality of a terminal device when running a target service, in a related art, a target server 304 for processing the target service is generally used as a speed measurement point, a speed measurement is directly initiated from a terminal 301 to the target server 304 via an operator network 302 and a backbone network 303, and the round-trip time of a service packet or a speed measurement packet is observed as a network delay, so as to evaluate the network quality.

However, the background target server 304 is used as a target speed measurement point, which easily causes the following problems:

1. a large number of terminals simultaneously initiate a speed measurement request to the target server 304, which is likely to cause load pressure on the target server 304 and affect the operation of the background service process.

2. The load of the target server 304 affects the processing time of the velocity measurement packet, which may cause the distortion of the velocity measurement data.

3. The large number of terminals initiating speed measurement to the background server 304 may occupy the server bandwidth and affect the actual service.

4. The speed measurement granularity is low, only the network state change from end to end (from the terminal to the target server) can be sensed, and the network bottleneck cannot be further positioned.

The embodiment of the disclosure provides a network quality determination method, which completes speed measurement of terminal equipment for a target service without affecting the actual service processing speed of a target server 304.

Fig. 4 is a flow chart illustrating a method of network quality determination according to an example embodiment. The method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure may be executed by any electronic device with computing processing capability, for example, the method may be executed by the server or the target device in the embodiment of fig. 1, or may be executed by both the server and the target device, which is not limited by the present disclosure.

In some embodiments, the network quality determination method may be performed by a speed measurement controller, where the test controller may be a server deployed in a Cloud through Cloud technology (Cloud technology), may perform signaling interaction with each speed measurement node, target terminal, target server, and the like, and process information transmitted by the target speed measurement node, target terminal, target server, and the like through Cloud computing (Cloud computing).

The cloud technology is a hosting technology for unifying series resources such as hardware, software, network and the like in a wide area network or a local area network to realize the calculation, storage, processing and sharing of data.

The cloud technology is based on the general names of network technology, information technology, integration technology, management platform technology, application technology and the like applied in the cloud computing business model, can form a resource pool, is used as required, and is flexible and convenient. Cloud computing technology will become an important support. Background services of the technical network system require a large amount of computing and storage resources, such as video websites, picture-like websites and more web portals. With the high development and application of the internet industry, each article may have its own identification mark and needs to be transmitted to a background system for logic processing, data in different levels are processed separately, and various industrial data need strong system background support and can only be realized through cloud computing.

Cloud computing refers to a delivery and use mode of an IT infrastructure, and refers to acquiring required resources in an on-demand and easily-extensible manner through a network; the generalized cloud computing refers to a delivery and use mode of a service, and refers to obtaining a required service in an on-demand and easily-extensible manner through a network. Such services may be IT and software, internet related, or other services. Cloud Computing is a product of development and fusion of traditional computers and Network Technologies, such as Grid Computing (Grid Computing), distributed Computing (distributed Computing), Parallel Computing (Parallel Computing), Utility Computing (Utility Computing), Network Storage (Network Storage Technologies), Virtualization (Virtualization), Load balancing (Load Balance), and the like.

Generally, before implementing the technical solution provided by this embodiment, it is necessary to arrange a velocity measurement node (including a first velocity measurement node and a second velocity measurement node) in advance, where the first velocity measurement node may be arranged near a network exit node (e.g. UPF in a 5G network) of an operator network in each area. For example, the first speed measurement node may be arranged in a machine room where the network exit node is located, or may be arranged in a city where the network exit node is located.

Generally, each operator will arrange its network egress node in each province and major cities (e.g., a certain prefecture city, a certain economic development area, etc.) where convergence is needed. If the specific positions of the network exit nodes of the operators are not known in advance, a plurality of first speed measurement nodes can be randomly arranged in each provincial meeting and key cities.

In some embodiments, if the machine room where the target server for processing the target service is located is known, the second speed measurement node may be disposed in the machine room where each target server is located. For example, the second speed measurement node may be arranged in a machine room where the target server is located, or the second speed measurement node may be arranged in a city where the target server is located, which is not limited in this disclosure.

In some embodiments, if the specific location of the target server is not known, a plurality of second speed measurement nodes may be randomly arranged in each province and each main city, so that the second speed measurement nodes are as close to the location of the target server as possible.

In some embodiments, the first speed measurement node and the second speed measurement node may be the same or different, and the disclosure does not limit this.

Referring to fig. 4, a network quality determination method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure may include the following steps.

In step S1, a first target speed measurement node and a second target speed measurement node of a target device for a target service are obtained, where the first target speed measurement node corresponds to a target network exit node of an operator network in a first area where the target device is located, the second target speed measurement node corresponds to a target server for processing the target service, the target server is located in a second area, and the first area and the second area communicate with each other through a backbone network.

In some embodiments, the target device may refer to any device that needs to perform network speed measurement, such as a mobile phone, a computer, an intelligent sound, an intelligent watch, and the like, which is not limited by the present disclosure.

In some embodiments, the target service may refer to any service that needs to perform network speed measurement in the target device, for example, a target game service, a target audio service, a target video service, a target social service, and the like, which is not limited by this disclosure.

In some embodiments, network signals in a first area may reach a backbone network through a target network egress node, and then network communication is achieved with a second area via the backbone network.

The target network egress node may be, for example, a network egress node (e.g., a UPF node) of a 5G network, or may be, for example, a network egress node of a 4G network; the network egress node may be a network egress node of a mobile network, a network egress node of a fixed network, or a network egress node of other networks, which is not limited in this disclosure.

In some embodiments, before the target device measures the speed for the target service, a speed measurement request may be sent to the speed measurement controller, where the speed measurement request may reach a backbone network via a target network outlet of an operator network where the target device is located (the target network outlet may allocate a public network address to the speed measurement request, where the public network address carries geographic location information of the target network outlet), and then reach the speed measurement controller via the backbone network; the speed measurement controller can determine the geographic position of the target network exit node according to the public network address in the speed measurement request; the speed measurement controller selects a first speed measurement node which is closer to the geographical position of a target network exit node (3021 shown in fig. 5) and has less load as a first target speed measurement node (3022 shown in fig. 5) of the target device according to the geographical position of the target network exit; the speed measurement controller may also determine a geographic location of the target server according to an address of the target server corresponding to the target service in the speed measurement request, and select, according to the geographic location of the target server, a second speed measurement node (3012 shown in fig. 5) that is closer to the target server (3011 shown in fig. 5) and has a smaller load as a second target speed measurement node of the target device.

It can be understood that the closer the first target velocity measurement node is to the target network exit node, the more accurate the network quality measured by the first target velocity measurement node. Similarly, the closer the second target speed measurement node is to the target server, the more accurate the network quality measured by the second target speed measurement node is.

In step S2, an operator network delay from the target device to the target network egress node is determined according to a first speed measurement signal sent by the target device to the first target speed measurement node.

In some embodiments, after the speed measurement controller determines the first target speed measurement node and the second target speed measurement node for the target device, the address of the first target speed measurement node and the address of the second target speed measurement node are sent to the target device.

As shown in fig. 5, after the target device (i.e. the terminal 301 in fig. 5) receives the address of the first target speed measuring node, a first speed measuring signal is sent to the first target speed measuring node 3022 according to the address of the first target speed measuring node, and a network delay T1 from the target device to the first target speed measuring node can be determined according to a round trip time of the first speed measuring signal.

The first speed measurement signal may be a speed measurement signal in an ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) service, and may also be a speed measurement signal in a TCPing (network status detection command), a UDPing (network communication problem detection program), or a broadband speed measurement service, which is not limited in this disclosure.

It can be appreciated that since the first target speed measuring node 3022 is relatively close to the target network egress node 3021, the network delay T1 between the target device and the first target speed measuring node can be taken as the operator network delay of the target device and the target network egress node.

In step S3, an end-to-end network delay from the target device to the target server is determined according to a second velocity measurement signal sent by the target device to the second target velocity measurement node.

Referring to fig. 5, after the target device (i.e. the terminal 301 in fig. 5) receives the address of the second target velocity measurement node, a second velocity measurement signal is sent to the second target velocity measurement node 3012 according to the address of the second target velocity measurement node, and the network delay from the target device to the second target velocity measurement node 3012 is determined according to the round trip time of the second velocity measurement signal.

The second speed measurement signal may be a speed measurement signal in an ICMP service, and may also be speed measurement information in a TCPing, a UDPing, or a broadband speed measurement service, which is not limited in this disclosure.

It can be understood that, because the second target speed measuring node 3012 is relatively close to the target server 3011, the network delay T2 between the target device and the second target speed measuring node 3012 can be taken as the end-to-end network delay of the target device and the target server 3011.

In step S4, the network quality of the target device when executing the target service is determined according to the operator network delay and the end-to-end network delay.

In some embodiments, the backbone network latency of the target network egress node 3021 to the target server 3011 may be determined by T2-T1 after the operator network latency T1 of the target device to the target network egress node 3021, the end-to-end network latency T2 of the target device to the target server 3011 is known.

In some embodiments, the operator network delay may be monitored in real time, and if the operator network delay is found to fluctuate (for example, the operator network delay suddenly increases or exceeds the first threshold), the network quality in the operator network where the target device is located may be considered to be poor. When the network quality of the operator network where the target device is located is degraded, on one hand, the target device can prompt the target object that the current network is poor so that the target object can take a countermeasure (for example, network replacement), and on the other hand, active measures can be taken to optimize the network quality of the operator network (for example, network protocol optimization, information distribution and the like).

In some embodiments, the end-to-end network delay from the target device to the target server may be monitored in real time, and if the end-to-end network delay is found to fluctuate (for example, the end-to-end network delay suddenly increases or exceeds a second threshold), it may be considered that the network quality from the target device to the network where the target server is located is degraded. When the network quality from the target device to the network where the target server is located is poor, on one hand, the target device can prompt the target object that the current network is poor so that the target object can take a countermeasure (such as network replacement) and on the other hand, active measures can be taken to optimize the end-to-end network quality.

In some embodiments, the time delay of the backbone network from the target network outlet to the target server may be monitored in real time, and if the time delay of the backbone network is found to fluctuate (for example, the time delay of the backbone network suddenly increases or exceeds a third threshold), the network quality of the backbone network from the target network outlet node to the target server may be considered to be degraded. When the network quality from the target network exit node to the backbone network of the target server is deteriorated, on one hand, the target object can be prompted by the target equipment that the current network is poor so that the target object can take a countermeasure (such as network replacement); on the other hand, active measures can be taken to optimize the network quality of the backbone network.

The technical scheme provided by the embodiment can determine the network quality when the target equipment executes the target service under the conditions of not occupying the broadband of the target server and not increasing the load of the server; network quality can be measured from multiple dimensions (for example, network quality of an operator network where the target device is located, end-to-end network quality from the target device to the target server, and network quality of a backbone network through which the target device passes to the target server can be measured).

Fig. 6 is a flowchart of step S1 in fig. 4 in an exemplary embodiment. Referring to fig. 6, the above-mentioned step S1 may include the following steps.

In step S11, in response to a speed measurement request sent by the target device for a target service, the speed measurement request includes a target public network address of the target network egress node and a target server address of the target server.

In some embodiments, before the target device performs speed measurement on the target service, a speed measurement request may be sent to the speed measurement controller, where the speed measurement request may reach the backbone network via a target network exit of an operator network where the target device is located, and reach the speed measurement controller through the backbone network.

It is understood that the speed measurement request may include an address of a target server that processes the target service. In addition, when the speed measurement request enters the backbone network via the target network exit node, the target network exit node will allocate a public network IP address (which may be referred to as a target public network address) with regional characteristics to the speed measurement request.

In step S12, a first target speed measurement node corresponding to the target network exit is determined according to the target public network address.

In some embodiments, the speed measurement controller may determine a first geographic location of the target network egress node according to the target public network address in the speed measurement request, and then determine a first target speed measurement node according to the first geographic location. For example, if a first speed measurement node exists in the first geographic location, the speed measurement controller may use the first speed measurement node closest to the target network exit as a first target speed measurement node of the target device; if the first speed measuring node does not exist in the first geographical position, the speed measuring controller selects a first speed measuring node which is closer to the exit node of the target network as a first target speed measuring node of the target device. For another example, the speed measurement controller may further select a first speed measurement node with a distance to the target network exit within the first target range and a low load as the first target speed measurement node of the target device.

In step S13, a second target speed measurement node corresponding to the target server is determined according to the target server address.

In some embodiments, the speed measurement controller may determine a second geographical location of the target server according to the address of the target server in the speed measurement request, and then determine a second target speed measurement node according to the second geographical location. For example, if a second speed measurement node exists in the second geographic location, the speed measurement controller may use the second speed measurement node closest to the target server as a second target speed measurement node of the target device; and if the second speed measuring node does not exist in the second geographic position, the speed measuring controller selects a second speed measuring node closer to the target server as a second target speed measuring node of the target equipment. For another example, the speed measurement controller may further select a second speed measurement node with a distance from the target network exit within a second target range and a smaller load as the second target speed measurement node of the target device.

According to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment, the first geographic position of the target network outlet can be determined through the target public network address in the speed measurement request sent by the target equipment, and then the first target speed measurement node which is close to the target network outlet and has less load is determined; and a second geographic position of the target server can be determined through the address of the target server in the speed measurement request, so that a second target speed measurement node which is closer to the target server and has less load is determined. By the first target speed measuring node and the second target speed measuring node, the network quality can be determined under the conditions that the broadband of the target server is not occupied and the load is not increased, and the network quality determined according to the first target speed measuring node and the second target speed measuring node can well reflect the network quality of the target equipment for executing the target service because the first target testing node and the second target speed measuring node are close to the target network outlet and the target server.

Fig. 7 is a flowchart of step S4 in fig. 4 in an exemplary embodiment. Referring to fig. 7, the above-mentioned step S4 may include the following steps.

In step S41, determining a backbone network delay from the target network outlet to the target server according to the operator network delay and the end-to-end network delay.

In some embodiments, when the operator network latency T1 of the target device to the target network egress node and the end-to-end network latency T2 of the target device to the target server are known, the backbone network latency of the target network egress node to the target server may be determined by T2-T1.

In step S42, determining the operator network quality of the target device to the target network outlet according to the operator network delay, so as to optimize the operator network according to the operator network quality.

In step S43, the end-to-end network quality from the target device to the target server is determined according to the end-to-end network delay, so as to optimize the end-to-end network according to the end-to-end network quality.

In step S44, determining the quality of the backbone network from the target network outlet to the target server according to the backbone network delay, so as to optimize the backbone network according to the quality of the backbone network.

According to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment, the network quality of the operator, the end-to-end network quality and the backbone network quality are determined according to the network delay of the operator, the end-to-end network delay and the backbone network delay, the network quality from the target equipment to the target server is determined from multiple dimensions, the network bottleneck can be better positioned, and the measurement of the network quality when the target equipment executes the target service can be completed in a fine granularity mode.

Fig. 8 is a flowchart of step S4 in fig. 4 in an exemplary embodiment.

In some embodiments, the operator network latency may include the operator network latency at the current time and the operator network average latency.

Referring to fig. 8, the above-mentioned step S4 may include the following steps.

In step S45, if the fluctuation of the operator network delay at the current time compared to the average operator network delay is greater than a target threshold, it is determined that the network from the target device to the target network outlet at the current time is abnormal.

In some embodiments, the carrier network average delay may refer to an average network delay from the target device to the target network exit in a past period of time, and may also refer to an average network delay after an outlier (e.g., greater than a target network delay threshold) is removed, which is not limited by this disclosure.

In some embodiments, if the difference between the operator network delay at the current time and the average operator network delay is greater than the target threshold, it may be considered that an abnormality occurs in the network from the target device to the target network outlet at the current time.

In step S46, network abnormality warning information is generated.

In some embodiments, when the network from the target device to the target network outlet is abnormal, a network abnormal reminding message may be generated according to the abnormal situation of the network, such as "the network speed of the current network is too slow, please change the network in time", "the network speed of the current network is too slow, please buffer for a while to see! And "wait for network anomaly reminding information, which is not limited by the present disclosure.

In step S47, the network abnormality prompting message is displayed on the target device.

In some embodiments, the network abnormality prompting message may be displayed in the target device, so that the target object may respond in time (for example, change the communication network, view after buffering, etc.) according to the network abnormality prompting message displayed in the target device.

According to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment, the network abnormity reminding information can be given in time when the network abnormity occurs, so that the target object can react in time according to the network abnormity condition, and the user experience is improved.

Referring to fig. 9, the network quality determination method may include the following steps.

In some embodiments, the target device 901 sends a speed measurement request to the speed measurement controller 907 for the target traffic, so as to obtain, from the speed measurement controller, an address of the first target speed measurement node 904 and an address of the second target speed measurement node 906. It is understood that the control function of the velocity measurement controller 907 can also be performed by the target device 901, which is not limited by the present disclosure.

In some embodiments, the first target speed measurement node 904 may be deployed in the same city as the network outlet 903 of the core network of the operator in the first area where the target device 901 is located (for example, the target device communicates with the target operator in the eastern area, while the network outlet of the core network of the target operator in the eastern area is deployed in the southwest of the eastern area, then the first target speed measurement node may be a speed measurement node disposed in the southwest of the china).

In some embodiments, the second target speed measurement node 906 may be deployed in the same room as the target server 905 that processes the target traffic.

In some embodiments, the target device 901 sends a first velocity measurement signal to the first target velocity measurement node 904 according to the address of the first target velocity measurement node, and determines the network delay T1 from the target device 901 to the first target velocity measurement node 904 according to the round trip time of the first velocity measurement signal.

It can be understood that, since the first target speed measurement node 904 is closer to the operator core network exit 903, the network delay T1 between the target device 901 and the first target speed measurement node 904 may be used as the operator network delay between the target device 901 and the operator core network exit 903.

In some embodiments, the target device 901 may send a second velocity measurement signal to the second target velocity measurement node 906 according to an address of the second target velocity measurement node, and determine a network delay from the target device 901 to the second target velocity measurement node 906 according to a round trip time of the second velocity measurement signal.

Since the distance between the second target speed measuring node 906 and the target server 905 is relatively short, the network delay T2 between the target device 901 and the second target speed measuring node 906 can be used as the end-to-end network delay between the target device 901 and the target server 905.

In some embodiments, after the operator network latency T1 of the target device 901 to the operator core network exit 903 and the end-to-end network latency T2 of the target device 901 to the target server 905 are known, the backbone network latency T3 of the operator core network exit 903 to the target server 905 can be determined by T2-T1.

In some embodiments, the operator network quality of the target device to target network egress may be determined based on operator network latency, such that the operator network is optimized based on operator network quality.

In some embodiments, the end-to-end network quality of the target device to the target server may be determined based on the end-to-end network latency, such that the end-to-end network is optimized based on the end-to-end network quality.

In some embodiments, the quality of the backbone network from the target network outlet to the target server may be determined according to the backbone network delay, so as to optimize the backbone network according to the quality of the backbone network.

As shown in fig. 10, the network quality determination structure may include a terminal 1001, a terminal 1002, a velometer controller 1003, a Shenzhen core network egress node 1004, a Guangzhou core network egress node 1005, a Shenzhen first target velometer node 1006, a Guangzhou first target velometer node 1007, a target server 1008, and a second target velometer node 1009.

In the network quality determination structure diagram shown in fig. 10, the terminal 1001 may be located in an operator network in shenzhen region, the terminal 1002 may be located in an operator network in guangzhou region, the server for processing the target service in the terminal 1001 may be a target server 1008 in shanghai machine room in shanghai region, the server for processing the target service in the terminal 1002 may also be a target server 1008 in shanghai machine room in shanghai region, the operator network in shenzhen region may communicate with the target server 1008 in shanghai machine room through a backbone network, and the operator network in guangzhou region may also communicate with the target server 1008 in shanghai machine room through the backbone network.

It is to be understood that, in this embodiment, the network quality determination method is described only by taking an example that the target device includes the terminal 1001 and the terminal 1002, and the target services of the terminal 1001 and the terminal 1002 are the same, but the disclosure does not limit this.

In connection with the network quality determination structure diagram shown in fig. 10, the network quality determination method may include the following steps.

(1) And carrying out network speed measurement on the target service executed by the terminal 1001.

The terminal 1001 may send a first speed measurement request to the speed measurement controller 1003, where the first speed measurement request may reach the backbone network via a shenzhen core network egress node 1004 of the shenzhen region operator network (the network egress node 1004 may allocate a public network address to the first speed measurement request, where the public network address carries the geographic location information of the shenzhen core network egress node 1004), and reach the speed measurement controller 1003 via the backbone network; the speed measurement controller 1003 can determine the geographic position of the Shenzhen core network exit node 1004 according to the public network address in the first speed measurement request; the speed measurement controller 1003 determines a Shenzhen first target speed measurement node which is closer to the Shenzhen core network target network exit node 1004 in the geographic position and less in load according to the geographic position of the Shenzhen core network exit node 1004 (the Shenzhen first target speed measurement node and the Shenzhen core network exit node 1004 can be both located in the Shenzhen machine room); the speed measurement controller 1003 can also determine the geographic location of the target server (for example, located in the shanghai computer room 1008) according to the address of the target server in the first speed measurement request; the speed measurement controller 1003 selects a second target speed measurement node which is closer to the target server and has a smaller load as a second target speed measurement node of the target device according to the geographical location of the target server, for example, the second target speed measurement node 1009 which is located in the shanghai machine room as the target server 1008.

In some embodiments, after the speed measurement controller 1003 determines the first target speed measurement node 1006 and the second target speed measurement node 1008 of shenzhen for the target device, the address of the first target speed measurement node and the address of the second target speed measurement node of shenzhen are returned to the terminal 1001.

After the terminal 1001 receives the address of the first target speed measurement node of shenzhen, a first target speed measurement signal is sent to the first target speed measurement node 1006 of shenzhen according to the address of the first target speed measurement node of shenzhen, and the network delay from the terminal 1001 to the first target speed measurement node 1006 of shenzhen can be determined according to the round trip time of the first target speed measurement signal.

It can be understood that, since the distance between the first target speed measurement node 1006 of shenzhen and the network exit node 1004 of the shenzhen core network is relatively short, the network delay between the terminal 1001 and the first target speed measurement node 1006 of shenzhen can be used as the operator network delay between the terminal 1001 and the network exit node 1004 of the shenzhen core network.

After receiving the address of the second target velocity measurement node, the terminal 1001 sends a second target velocity measurement signal to the second target velocity measurement node 1009 according to the address of the second target velocity measurement node, and determines the network delay from the terminal 1001 to the second target velocity measurement node 1009 according to the round trip time of the second target velocity measurement signal.

It can be understood that, since the second target speed measurement node 1009 is relatively close to the target server 1008, the network delay between the terminal 1001 and the second target speed measurement node 1009 can be used as the end-to-end network delay between the terminal 1001 and the target server 1008.

In some embodiments, after the operator network latency T1 of the terminal 1001 to the Shenzhen core network egress node 1004 and the end-to-end network latency T2 of the terminal 1001 to the target server 1008 are known, the backbone network latency of the Shenzhen core network egress node 1004 to the target server 1008 can be determined through T2-T1.

In some embodiments, the operator network quality from the terminal 1001 to the shenzhen core network egress node 1004 may be determined according to the operator network latency of the terminal 1001, so as to optimize the operator network according to the operator network quality; the end-to-end network quality from the terminal 1001 to the target server 1008 can be determined according to the end-to-end network delay of the terminal 1001, so that the end-to-end network can be optimized according to the end-to-end network quality; the quality of the backbone network from the Shenzhen core network exit node 1004 to the target server 1008 can be determined according to the backbone network latency of the terminal 1001, so that the backbone network is optimized according to the quality of the backbone network.

(2) And carrying out network speed measurement on the terminal 1002.

The terminal 1002 may send a second speed measurement request to the speed measurement controller 1003, where the second speed measurement request may reach a backbone network via a network exit node 1005 of a guangzhou core network of a guangzhou regional operator network (the guangzhou core network exit node 1005 may allocate a public network address to the second speed measurement request, where the public network address carries geographic location information of the guangzhou core network exit node 1005), and reach the speed measurement controller 1003 via the backbone network; the speed measurement controller 1003 may determine the geographic location of the guangzhou core network egress node 1005 according to the public network address in the second speed measurement request; the speed measurement controller 1003 determines, according to the geographic position of the Guangzhou core network exit node 1005, a Guangzhou first target speed measurement node which is closer to the Guangzhou core network target network exit node 1007 in geographic position and has a smaller load (the Guangzhou first target speed measurement node and the Guangzhou core network exit node 1005 may be both located in a Guangzhou machine room); the speed measurement controller 1003 can also determine the geographic location of the target server (for example, located in the shanghai computer room 1008) according to the address of the target server in the second speed measurement request; the speed measurement controller 1003 selects a second target speed measurement node which is closer to the target server and has a smaller load as a second target speed measurement node of the target device according to the geographical location of the target server (for example, the second target speed measurement node 1009 which is located in the shanghai computer room as the target server).

In some embodiments, after the speed measurement controller 1003 determines the first target speed measurement node 1007 and the second target speed measurement node 1009 in the guangzhou for the target device, the address of the first target speed measurement node in the guangzhou and the address of the second target speed measurement node in the guangzhou are returned to the terminal 1002.

After the terminal 1002 receives the address of the first guangzhou target speed measurement node, a third target speed measurement signal is sent to the first guangzhou target speed measurement node 1007 according to the address of the first guangzhou target speed measurement node, and the network delay from the terminal 1002 to the first guangzhou target speed measurement node 1007 can be determined according to the round-trip time of the third target speed measurement signal.

It can be understood that, because the distance between the guangzhou first target speed measurement node 1007 and the guangzhou core network exit node 1005 is relatively short, the network delay between the terminal 1002 and the guangzhou first target speed measurement node 1007 can be used as the operator network delay between the terminal 1002 and the guangzhou core network exit node 1005.

After the terminal 1002 receives the address of the second target velocity measurement node, a fourth target velocity measurement signal is sent to the second target velocity measurement node according to the address of the second target velocity measurement node, and the network delay from the terminal device 1002 to the second target velocity measurement node 1009 is determined according to the round trip time of the fourth target velocity measurement signal.

It can be understood that, since the second target speed measurement node 1009 is relatively close to the target server 1008, the network delay between the terminal 1002 and the second target speed measurement node 1009 can be used as the end-to-end network delay between the terminal 1002 and the target server 1008.

In some embodiments, when the operator network latency T1 of the terminal 1002 to the Guangzhou core network egress node 1005 and the end-to-end network latency T2 of the terminal 1002 to the target server 1008 are known, the backbone network latency of the Guangzhou core network egress node 1005 to the target server 1008 can be determined by T2-T1.

In some embodiments, the operator network quality of the terminal 1002 to the guangzhou core network egress node 1005 may be determined according to an operator network delay of the terminal 1002, so as to optimize the operator network according to the operator network quality; the end-to-end network quality from the terminal 1002 to the target server 1008 can be determined according to the end-to-end network delay of the terminal 1002, so that the end-to-end network is optimized according to the end-to-end network quality; the quality of the backbone network from the Guangzhou core network egress node 1005 to the target server 1008 can be determined based on the backbone network delay of the terminal 1002, so as to optimize the backbone network based on the backbone network quality.

The technical scheme provided by the embodiment realizes the measurement of the network quality when the target service is executed by the plurality of terminal devices, does not occupy the broadband of the target server, does not increase the load of the server, and can realize the measurement of the network quality from a plurality of dimensions.
