Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of wireless communication, in particular to a block chain-based method for distributing the edge calculation force of a 5G access network user terminal.
Background
The 5G co-construction sharing networking has two modes: access network sharing and foreign network roaming.
Under the access network sharing scheme, when a 5G non-independent network is NSA, a user belonging to an operator A is called UEA, and a user belonging to an operator B is called UEB, and the users are accessed to core networks of respective affiliated operators through a shared base station. In this way, the shared base station needs to transmit and exchange through the shared bearer network, and sends the user plane and control plane messages of different ues a and ues b to the core networks to which the shared base station belongs. Under the NSA architecture, 4G serves as an anchor point, and thus both 4G and 5G base stations are shared.
For the 5G independent networking architecture SA, since 4G is not required as an anchor point, only the 5G base stations are shared base stations, and the respective 4G base stations of the operators do not need to be shared. In the heterogeneous network roaming scheme, under the NSA architecture, both the UEA and the UEB access the core network of the current network through the 5G base station, and then access the core network of the home operator in a roaming mode. Under the NSA architecture, also because 4G is an anchor point, both 4G and 5G base stations are shared. When the 5G independent networking architecture SA is used, under the heterogeneous roaming scheme, for the same reason, 4G is not required to be used as an anchor point, and only 5G base stations need to be shared.
At present, domestic operators all adopt an access network sharing mode. Under the background of 5G co-construction shared networking, the deployment and scheduling mode of the edge cloud (MEC) has the following problems:
edge Clouds (MECs) are typically deployed at the operator base station access side, an aggregation closet, or higher-level regional data centers. After 5G co-construction and sharing, if two operators both need to provide low-delay low-congestion edge calculation support for respective users, the MEC after sinking UPF and UPF needs to be respectively constructed in the shared base station access side machine room.
Therefore, how to avoid the repeated construction of sinking UPFs and MECs and realize the edge calculation power distribution and scheduling among different operators becomes a problem to be solved urgently in the industry.

In this embodiment, the building of the blockchain network may be performed based on an additionally provided link building server, that is, the link building server distributes a program to each network node in the blockchain, so as to initialize the blockchain network of this embodiment.
The updating of the blockchain network can also be completed by the link establishment server.
For example, after the total amount of computing resources of some edge computing power nodes is increased (new equipment is erected) and decreased (hardware equipment is worn), the link establishment server can update the distributed program to adjust the edge computing power nodes with the changed total amount of computing resources.
Generally, a blockchain network is completely decentralized, with each node in the network being in the same place.
However, in this embodiment, the physical condition of the user end is limited, and there may be some functions that may not be competent for computation allocation, computation customization service, and the like, so an intelligent contract server may be additionally provided in the blockchain network as a special node for processing the function implementation that may not be competent by the user end.
In step 101, the edge calculation demand signal sent by the user end is provided for the edge calculation distribution network based on the block chain in this embodiment, that is, only when the user end selects the calculation call request for realizing the edge calculation using the block chain network, step 101 can be realized.
Prior to step 101, options for computing power invocation may be provided by a specific server or a blockchain network node according to common computing power request information of a user end, for example, providing a remote MEC (i.e., an edge cloud that may include one or more edge computing nodes) by a user end communications operator, performing cloud computing power invocation by a non-MEC method, implementing computing power invocation by the blockchain-based edge computing distribution network of the present embodiment, and the like.
When the user returns the result of the computation power call implemented by the edge computation distribution network based on the block chain in this embodiment, that is, the edge computation power demand signal sent by the user side, step 101 is executed, and further other steps in this embodiment are executed.
The beneficial effect of this embodiment lies in:
by establishing a block chain network comprising edge computing nodes and a user side, distributing edge computing resources based on an intelligent contract of a block chain technology, and recording computing power calling information, on the premise of ensuring accurate and timely resource distribution of the user side, the consumption calling information of the edge computing resources can be safely, transparently, autonomously and irreparably stored and recorded.
According to the above embodiment, in the present embodiment:
the step of obtaining the distributed edge computing nodes based on the intelligent contracts deployed on the blockchain according to the edge computing power demand signals comprises:
determining the type of the required service of the user side according to the edge computing power demand signal;
according to the type of the required service of the user side, running an intelligent contract deployed on the block chain, and acquiring edge computing nodes, of which edge computing resources are not less than required resources and communication distances are less than a set threshold value, as distributed edge computing nodes;
the demand resource refers to an edge computing resource required by the demand service type.
One or more set business models are deployed on the edge calculation force node; the service model is used for instantiation call of the user side.
And establishing a computing channel between the user side and the distributed edge computing node based on a User Port Function (UPF).
The computing power calling information is used for the first operator and the second operator to settle computing power transaction;
the first operator refers to a communication operator of the user side; the second operator refers to an operator of the edge computing node.
The method for distributing the edge calculation force of the 5G access network user terminal based on the block chain further includes:
and forwarding a demand termination signal sent by a user side to the distributed edge computing node, so that the distributed edge computing node executes an intelligent contract according to the demand termination signal and releases edge computing resources.
The beneficial effect of this embodiment lies in:
by establishing a block chain network comprising edge computing nodes and a user side, distributing edge computing resources based on an intelligent contract of a block chain technology, and recording computing power calling information, on the premise of ensuring accurate and timely resource distribution of the user side, the consumption calling information of the edge computing resources can be safely, transparently, autonomously and irreparably stored and recorded.
In the following, from the overall perspective of the technical solution, an embodiment of a method for providing fast edge computation for users under shared coverage of an access network based on a block chain technology is provided.
Based on the problems already described in the background, if only one operator's edge cloud physical resource is allowed to be deployed in the computer room. When facing scenes such as visiting edge cloud platforms or local shunting, the following problems exist:
(1) if only the 5G access network is shared and the edge cloud is not shared, the unshared base station construction party UE cannot use the base station access edge cloud deployment scheme to deploy the edge cloud at the farther end such as a protective equipment room or an area data center, and due to the fact that the transmission link is prolonged, reliability is reduced and unnecessary service flows are increased. If each operator needs to establish an edge cloud in the resource position of the shared base station, the advantages brought by co-establishing the shared network are compressed. Without sharing the edge cloud, the unshared base station contractor UE needs to access the computing resources of the home operator through the bearer network. According to the foregoing, the shared bearer network needs to distribute, at a certain node, user plane and control plane messages of the ue a and the ue b to core networks to which the respective nodes belong.
(2) If the 5G access network and the edge cloud are shared simultaneously, the influence of the resource sharing networking architecture, the shared resource working mechanism and the edge cloud sharing on the Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) mode of the sharing party and the undertaking party for user access needs to be clarified, and the requirements on the corresponding network capacity are clarified from the aspects of user identity authentication, charging mode, quality of service (QoS) strategy and the like.
The problem to be solved by the embodiment is as follows: and when the 5G access network and the edge cloud are shared simultaneously, computing resources are shared by using the block chain and the intelligent contract.
For the NSA scenario, the deployment location of the MEC edge cloud is the same as 4G, i.e., still connected in series on the S1-U interface and between the core packet network (EPC) and the new air interface (NR). The MEC edge cloud deployment can be a split deployment and a service server separate deployment, and can also be an integrated deployment to realize functions such as charging and the like.
In the SA scenario, the 5G network MEC edge cloud platform is generally deployed in a virtualized form. The MEC is fused with a Network Function Virtualization (NFV) technology, and can realize calling as required and flexible deployment. The MEC edge cloud deployment location is behind a User Plane Function (UPF). The MEC edge cloud may be deployed according to UPF location and business requirements. In a 5G SA, the UPF and MEC platform (MEP) will each be deployed docked as two parts.
The block chain technology is used as a decentralized distributed accounting technology, and traceability, consistency and non-falsification of data can be guaranteed by using a consensus algorithm, a hash function, a timestamp, asymmetric encryption, a programmable intelligent contract and other technologies. The blockchain may be deployed on the MEC edge cloud on the base station access side as an application. When the terminal accesses the MEC, the intelligent contract on the corresponding block chain is executed, and the calculation force calling is recorded while the corresponding edge calculation force is started. Under the scheme, even if the communication between the current base station access computer room and the remote core network is interrupted, the UE can still normally obtain the calculation force support of the MEC.
The embodiment discloses a method for providing fast edge computing power for users under shared coverage of an access network based on a block chain technology. Under the condition that only one MEC computing power entity is deployed in a base station access computer room, the real-time MEC computing power can be provided for UE belonging to other co-established sharing operators.
The key points of the embodiment include:
and reserving resources of the specific computing power service on an MEC server deployed in a base station access computer room. Typical services of this type include recognition services in the autopilot class. In the current computing power network architecture, the whole network computing power is resource information such as computing power, storage, algorithm and the like of a service node is distributed through a network control plane (including a centralized controller, a distributed routing protocol and the like), and optimal distribution, association, transaction and allocation of resources such as computing, storage, network and the like are provided by combining network information and user requirements, so that a novel network with optimized configuration and use of resources in the whole network is realized.
On one hand, after a terminal in an existing computing power network requests computing power, a long time is often needed to obtain computing power resources (on the order of tens of seconds from computing power selection, routing, environment configuration, data transmission and the like), and for mobile computing power applications such as the internet of vehicles and the like, bidirectional mobile communication support needs to be provided for input and output of certain computing power. In this case, once the transmission link fails, communication is interrupted, and the overall security of the service is affected.
On the other hand, if the typical application of the car networking class is customized into the standard model, resource reservation can be performed on the edge server at the base station side, the instantiation can be performed immediately once a service request is received, and when the target UE enters the cell, the customized computing power service can be provided for the target UE.
The advantage of customizing the computation power of the typical application also includes that the number of the application instances which can be carried by the current edge computation power node can be calculated more accurately. When a custom computation power request arrives, the local orchestrator can quickly calculate whether the current resource is sufficient for one instantiation. It should be noted here that, in general, for an application with power customization, the service priority should be the highest or several higher levels. When only the highest priority application is provided with the power customization and resource reservation, the local node orchestrator scheduling is relatively simple, and if multiple priorities need to be supported, the resource reservation algorithm needs to be further refined. This embodiment only describes the procedure by taking the application with the highest priority reserved as an example.
For a urrllc (low-latency high-reliability) network, in order to realize low network latency, the UPF is generally deployed near a base station or in an access room, while the UPF of an eMBB (enhanced mobile broadband) is deployed in a convergence room or a core room. Generally, an ME Host has a hierarchy of a central DC (large area central office)/regional DC (provincial level office), a core DC (local network core office), an edge DC (local network convergence office), and a drop-in central DC. The MEC system level network management (including MEPM and MEAO) needs to coordinate operations (e.g. selecting Host, application migration, policy interaction, etc.) between different ME hosts (including MEP, UPF and ME APP) and between the ME hosts and the 5GC, and is generally deployed in regional DC (provincial level) or central DC (large-area center). The ME Host is deployed on demand according to service direction and cooperates with the sinking and distributed deployment of the UPF, and in actual networking, the ME Host can be flexibly deployed at different positions from the vicinity of the base station to the central data network according to related requirements on operability, performance or security. However, no matter how deployed, UPF is needed to control traffic to point to MEC APP or to point to the network.
For MEC deployment on RAN side: the MEC may be deployed behind a single eNB node or behind an aggregation node of multiple enbs, which is a common deployment approach in 4G and is called radio over-frequency (tof). The advantage of deploying the MEC on the RAN side is that it is more convenient to obtain the wireless related information of the base station side by monitoring and analyzing the signaling of the S1-C interface, and it is also possible to offload the traffic data traffic to the edge for processing by analyzing the GTP-U packet of the S1-U interface, thereby reducing the network delay to millisecond level. But the problem of the scheme is that the security problems of charging, lawful interception and the like need to be solved.
In the scenario of the embodiment of the patent, for a co-building shared base station, when a computational network is deployed at a near-end position such as a base station access machine room, a customized standard model is applied to certain typical edge computation on an MEC by adopting the method of the patent, and a block chain and a corresponding intelligent contract are deployed at a node. The content of the intelligent contract comprises:
(1) the computing power is customized by a special intelligent contract server according to the typical application and is submitted to each edge computing power node in an intelligent contract form, and a computing power trading platform is added before regular settlement is carried out. The intelligent contract is validated after the server publishes the intelligent contract onto the blockchain.
(2) Multiple operators co-building a shared base station need to sign a contract with an intelligent contract server in advance and obtain an intelligent contract access permission. While providing a communication channel with the edge MEC at the sunken UPF.
(3) When the MEC node receives a corresponding application initiation request, before executing a conventional edge computing process, checking whether resources are available on the current edge MEC for instantiating a target typical application, if so, instantiating the application model, and triggering the intelligent contract on the node to execute.
(4) When the MEC is inquired that resources corresponding to the calculation force exist, a special connection channel is allocated to the terminal. When the terminal establishes the computing power channel with the MEC, the corresponding intelligent contract is executed immediately, and the occupation condition of the current application on the computing power resource is recorded.
(5) The customization computing power is customized in the smart contract in a time slice format, such as seconds at a customization granularity. When the contract executes, the effective starting-stopping time period of the current computing resource is determined at the same time.
(6) When the user no longer needs the customized computing power resource on the MEC, a release of the customized computing power application will be submitted to the MEC. The MEC, upon receiving the application, will execute the smart contract that releases the customized computational power.
(7) The 'computing power trading platform' on the system side carries out statistics and charging (such as monthly statistics) on the non-real-time computing power use condition in a mode of accessing the edge MEC block chain.
In summary, the method for quickly providing edge calculation for users based on the blockchain technology provided by the present embodiment. For terminals under the coverage of a shared access network, such as autonomous vehicles, a large number of sensors are deployed on the vehicles, and according to estimation, 40TB of data are generated every 8 hours of driving, most of the data are not important, and if the data are transmitted to the cloud, a large amount of unnecessary expenses are caused. Meanwhile, the automatic driving automobile is very sensitive to time delay of data transmission and processing, and accidents can be caused when the data transmission is delayed by 1 ms. Therefore, in order to reduce the bandwidth and ensure low latency, edge computing power (MEC equipment) matching such traffic needs to be configured at the network edge.
In the current networks of large operators, the areas adopting the technology of co-building shared access networks are gradually increasing. Under the existing access network sharing scheme, if a network construction party and a network sharing party need to support edge computing, respective 'sinking UPFs' and MECs connected to the UPFs need to be deployed on the sharing base station side.
