If the PCO parameter carries the FQDN of the MTC Server, the GGSN can go to the DNS server. The IP address of the MTC server is queried. If not, the GGSN can pre-statically configure the mapping between the MTC UE identifier and the MTC server IP address, and then obtain the address of the MTC server by searching for the corresponding relationship according to the identifier of the MTC UE.
- Step 608 The GGSN establishes an IP secure connection with the MTC server through the MTCi port, and then sends the small data packet of the MTC UE to the MTC server, where the IP packet can carry the identifier of the MTC UE.
- the MTC Server responds to the GGSN that the packet has been received.
- Step 609 After the GGSN sends the small data packet, the GGSN does not allocate a new entry and related resources to the PDP context, and directly returns a PDP context activation rejection message to the SGSN, where the message carries TEID, PCO, and other parameter information, and the PCO parameter carries the small data.
- the indication that the packet has been sent is sent to the MTC UE.
- Step 610 The SGSN sends a RAB assignment message to the RNS to apply for the radio bearer resource, but sends a reject PDP context creation message to the MTC UE, where the message carries the PCO parameter.
- the MTC UE finds that the small data packet has been sent from the PCO parameter the PDP context creation is not attempted until the next small data packet transmission triggers the re-initiation attachment request or the PDP context creation request.
- Step 611 the terminal that sends the small data packet offline may be offline, and the offline may be initiated by the network, or may be initiated by the MTC UE. If initiated by the network, the SGSN initiates a reject PDP context setup message to the MTC UE, and then initiates a Detach message to the MTC UE to inform the MTC UE that the UE is offline. If initiated by the MTC UE, the MTC UE initiates a Detach procedure to the SGSN after receiving the message rejecting the PDP context establishment.
- the present invention further provides a system for transmitting small data packets, including: an MTC UE, a media gateway, and an MTC server.
- the MTC UE is configured to carry the d and the data packet to be sent to the media gateway in the network during the process of creating the bearer.
- the media gateway is configured to send the received small data packet to the MTC server.
- the media gateway is in the EPS network.
- P-GW in the GPRS network, is the GGSN.
- the MTC UE is further configured to: when the attach request or the bearer setup request is initiated, send the small data packet that needs to be sent in the attach request or the bearer setup request to the media gateway.
- the small data packet is carried in the PCO parameter of the attach request or bearer setup request.
- the PCO parameter may carry a small data packet transmission identifier, and the media gateway identifies whether it is necessary to send a small data packet according to the small data packet transmission identifier.
- the PCO parameter can also carry the FQDN of the MTC server.
- the media gateway queries the DNS server for the corresponding MTC server address according to the FQDN, and sends the small data packet to the MTC server corresponding to the address.

M2M业务是以机器终端智能交互为核心的、 网络化的应用与服务。 它 釆用智能机器终端, 通过无线网络传输信息, 为客户提供的信息化解决方 案, 用于满足客户对监控、 指挥调度、 数据釆集和测量等方面的信息化需 求。
M2M的通信对象为机器对机器, 可以是人与机器之间的通信, 机器与 服务器之间的通信, 不同智能终端之间的通信。 不同应用的 MTC设备具有 不同的特性, 如: 电梯等升降机设备具有低移动性、 只有分组交换业务(PS only, Packet Switched only )属性; 而监视、 警报设备除具有低移动性、 PS only外, 还具有低数据传输和高可用性等属性。 因此, 需要针对不同应用 的 MTC设备进行不同的***优化, 以有效的对 MTC设备进行管理、监控、 付费等。

具体实施方式
下面结合附图和具体实施例对本发明的技术方案进一步详细阐述。 本发明需要解决离线状态下 MTC UE发送小数据包的问题, 在小数据 包的发送过程中需要高效利用网络资源, 减少信令交互与移动性管理。 基 于上述需求, 本发明的 MTC UE在进行承载创建的过程中, 将需要发送的 小数据包携带给网络中的媒体网关; 媒体网关将接收的小数据包发送给 MTC服务器。
在 MTC UE发起附着请求或承载建立请求时, 直接在请求消息中携带 小数据包, 并指示是否有小数据包发送; 当媒体网关收到附着请求或承载 建立请求时,从 PCO参数中识别小数据包发送的指示,然后从 PCO参数中 提取出小数据包, 并封装成适合 MTCi接口传输的 IP包。 另外, 媒体网关 需要发现 MTC UE所在的 MTC Server, 可以釆用全域名 (FQDN, Fully Qualified Domain Name )到域名***(DNS, Domain Name System )寻址 的方式查找对应的 MTC Server, 然后与 MTC Server建立安全的 IP连接, 将 MTC UE的小数据包发送给 MTC Server。
媒体网关在小数据包发送完成后, 根据策略直接拒绝媒体承载的建立, 不为 MTC UE分配 IP地址、 核心网承载资源和无线资源 , 从而提高网络资 源的利用率。 此外, 节省了策略与计费控制 (PCC , Policy and Charging Control )策略交互、 建立无线承载的信令交互, 减少了信令处理。 MTC UE 在小数据包发送完成后再次进入离线状态, 直至下个小数据包的发送触发。
下面结合具体实施例对本发明的小数据包传输的方法进一步详细阐 述。
本发明的实施例一如图 5所示, 描述了 MTC UE接入到 EPS网络, 执 行网络附着时发送小数据包的过程。 MTC UE终端向 EPS网络发起附着请 求时, 在 PCO参数中携带小数据包及小数据包发送标识; P-GW识别有小
数据包发送, 并从 PCO参数中提取出小数据包封装成合适的 IP包, 然后通 过 MTCi接口发给 MTC Server; 数据发送完成后媒体网关拒绝承载建立, 减少与 PCRF进行交互及媒体承载的建立。 具体流程包括以下步骤:
步骤 501 , MTC UE为了接入到 SAE网络, 向 eNodeB发起网络附着 请求, 在其中携带了 IMSI、 MTC UE的网络接入能力、 PCO参数、 附着类 型等信息。
PCO参数为 MTC UE与 P-GW之间的协议参数,包括请求分配 IP的指 示等信息, PCO参数在 eNodeB与 MME中透明传递,长度可达 255个字节。
对于 MTC UE发送小数据包, 可根据配置策略, 或根据 "小数据包传 输" 的签约特性, 在附着请求中, 将需要发送给 MTC Server的小数据包携 带在 PCO参数中, 同时在 PCO参数中携带小数据包发送标识。 可选的, 在 PCO参数中携带 MTC Server的 FQDN。
步骤 502, eNodeB为 MTC UE选择一个为之服务的 MME, 并将附着 请求转发到该 MME, 同时将 MTC UE的标识、 附着类型、 接入能力、 PCO 参数等重要信息也携带给该 MME, PCO参数对于 MME是透明传输的。
步骤 503 , MME向 HSS发送鉴权数据请求消息(含 IMSI ), HSS首先 判断 IMSI对应的签约用户数据, 如果查找不到任何签约或者 IMSI已被列 入黑名单, 则 HSS向 MME返回鉴权数据响应并携带错误原因; 如果找到 IMSI对应的签约用户数据, 则 HSS向 MME返回鉴权数据响应消息(含鉴 权向量)。
MME执行鉴权流程以验证终端 IMSI的合法性, 并执行安全模式流程 以启用安全连接。
步骤 504, MME向归属网的 HSS发送位置更新请求, HSS根据 MTC UE 的标识将该签约用户数据发送给 MME。
MME接收到签约用户数据,检查 MTC UE是否被允许接入到网络,如
果允许, 则向 HSS返回接收用户响应; 若 MME发现 MTC UE有漫游限制 或接入限制等问题, MME将禁止 MTC UE附着, 并通知 HSS。 在 MME 向 HSS返回接收用户响应后, HSS向 MME发送确认位置更新响应。
步骤 505 , MME为 MTC UE选择一个 S-GW, 并向其发送建立默认承 载的请求。在该请求中, MME告知 S-GW必要的信息有: MTC UE的标识、 MME的标识、 为 MTC UE分配 IP地址的指示、 缺省带宽信息、 P-GW地 址、 PCO参数等, PCO参数中携带 MTC UE发送小数据包的请求(即小数 据包发送标识)及需要发送的小数据包等信息。
S-GW向 P-GW发送建立默认承载的请求。 在该请求中, S-GW告知 P-GW必要的信息有: S-GW的地址、 缺省带宽信息、 为 MTC UE分配 IP 地址的指示、 PCO参数等, PCO参数中携带小数据包发送标识及需要发送 的小数据包等信息。
步骤 506, P-GW提取 PCO参数中的信息, 并根据 MTC UE发送小数 据包的请求, 取出需要发送的小数据包, 将其封装成满足 MTCi接口要求 的 IP包格式。
P-GW需要在 IP包中填入 IP包的目的地址,即 MTC Server的 IP地址。 如果 PCO参数中携带了 MTC Server的 FQDN, 则 P-GW可以向 DNS服务 器查询 MTC Server的 IP地址;如果没有携带, P-GW可以预静态配置 MTC UE标识与 MTC Server IP地址的对应关系, P-GW根据 MTC UE的标识通 过查找该对应关系得到 MTC Server的地址。
步骤 507, P-GW通过 MTCi口与 MTC Server建立 IP安全连接, 并将 MTC UE的小数据包发送给 MTC Server, IP包可携带 MTC UE的标识。 MTC Server向 P-GW响应数据包已接收。
步骤 508, P-GW发送数据完成后, 不再为 MTC UE分配资源与 IP地 址, 直接向 S-GW发送默认承载建立拒绝消息, 在 PCO参数中携带小数据
包已发送完成的指示通知 MTC UE。 S-GW向 MME发送默认承载建立拒绝 的响应消息, 携带 PCO参数。
步骤 509, MME向 eNodeB发送附着拒绝响应 , 拒绝 MTC UE的附着 请求, 同时在附着请求中携带 PCO参数返回给 MTC UE,在 PCO参数中携 带小数据包已发送完成的指示。
步骤 510, eNodeB收到附着拒绝后, 直接向 MTC UE发送附着拒绝消 息, 拒绝本次的接入请求, 拒绝消息中携带 PCO参数, MTC UE从 PCO 参数中发现小数据包已发送完成的指示, 就不再尝试接入, 离线后直至下 一次小数据包发送的触发再发起附着请求。
eNodeB 拒绝附着的请求, 就不需要分配无线承载资源, 这提高了无线 资源的利用率。
本发明的实施例二如图 6所示, 描述了 MTC UE接入到 GPRS网络, 执行网络附着与创建 PDP上下文时发送小数据包的过程。 MTC UE向 GPRS 网络发起承载建立请求时, 在 PCO参数中携带小数据包及小数据包发送标 识; GGSN识别有小数据包发送, 并从 PCO参数中提取出小数据包封装成 合适的 IP包,然后通过 MTCi接口发给 MTC Server;数据发送完成后 GGSN 拒绝承载建立, 不分配核心网媒体承载与无线承载。 具体流程包括以下步 骤:
步骤 601 , MTC UE首次通过 RNS向 SGSN发起附着请求, 其中携带 附着类型、 IMSI等参数。
RNS 根据其负载情况, 以用户的 IMSI 为请求标识将该消息路由到 SGSN。
步骤 602, SGSN向 HLR请求对 IMSI进行鉴权, HLR根据 IMSI下载 鉴权认证参数, SGSN对 MTC UE进行鉴权与认证。
步骤 603 , SGSN发送位置更新请求给 HLR,其中携带 SGSN号码与地
址、 IMSI等参数; HLR将与 IMSI相对应的签约数据下载给 SGSN, SGSN 对 MTC UE进行接入控制检查,检查 MTC UE是否有区域限制或接入限制, 然后返回***数据响应给 HLR。 HLR确认位置更新消息 , 并发位置更新响 应给 SGSN。
步骤 604, SGSN为该用户分配 P-TMSI,然后将附着接受消息发给 UE, 消息中携带为 UE分配的 P-TMSI等信息。
步骤 605 , MTC UE需要发送小数据包, 则向 SGSN发起创建 PDP上 下文请求, 申请进行 PDP上下文激活, 创建 GTP承载。
MTC UE将创建 PDP上下文请求发给 SGSN, 请求中携带 PDP类型、 PDP地址、 APN、 PCO参数等信息。 PCO参数为 UE与 GGSN之间的协议 参数, 包括请求分配 IP的指示等信息; PCO参数在 RNS与 SGSN透明传 递, 长度可达 255个字节。
对于 MTC UE发送小数据包, 可根据配置策略, 或根据 "小数据包传 输"的签约特性,在创建 PDP上下文请求中将需要发送给 MTC Server的小 数据包携带在 PCO 参数中, 同时在 PCO 中携带小数据包发送标识通知 GGSN。 可选的, 在 PCO参数中携带 MTC Server的 FQDN。
步骤 606, SGSN根据 APN找到 GGSN的地址, 并为此 PDP上下文创 建 TEID, 然后将此创建 PDP上下文请求发给 GGSN, 请求中携带 PDP类 型、 PDP地址、 APN、 TEID, PCO参数等信息, 在 PCO参数中携带小数 据包发送标识。 可选的, 在 PCO参数中携带 MTC Server的 FQDN。
步骤 607, GGSN提取 PCO参数中的信息, 然后根据 MTC UE发送小 数据包的请求, 取出需要发送的小数据包, 将其封装成满足 MTCi接口要 求的 IP包格式。
GGSN需要在 IP包中填入 IP包的目的地址,即 MTC Server的 IP地址。 如果 PCO参数中携带了 MTC Server的 FQDN, GGSN可以向 DNS服务器
查询 MTC Server的 IP地址;如果没有携带, GGSN可以预静态配置 MTC UE 标识与 MTC Server IP地址的对应关系, 然后才艮据 MTC UE的标识通过查 找该对应关系得到 MTC Server的地址。
步骤 608, GGSN通过 MTCi口与 MTC Server建立 IP安全连接, 然后 将 MTC UE的小数据包发送给 MTC Server, IP包可携带 MTC UE的标识。 MTC Server向 GGSN响应数据包已接收。
步骤 609, GGSN发送小数据包完成后, 不再为 PDP上下文分配新的 入口及相关资源, 直接向 SGSN返回 PDP上下文激活拒绝消息, 消息中携 带 TEID、 PCO等参数信息, PCO参数中携带小数据包已发送完成的指示 通知 MTC UE。
步骤 610, SGSN不再向 RNS发送 RAB指派消息来申请无线承载资源, 而是直接向 MTC UE发送拒绝 PDP上下文创建消息, 消息中携带 PCO参 数。 MTC UE从 PCO参数中发现小数据包已发送完成的指示, 则不再尝试 PDP上下文创建, 直至下一次小数据包发送的触发再发起附着请求或 PDP 上下文创建请求。
步骤 611 ,根据相关配置策略,对于离线发送小数据包的终端可以离线, 离线可以由网络发起, 也可以由 MTC UE发起。 如果由网络发起, SGSN 在向 MTC UE发起拒绝 PDP上下文建立消息后,然后向 MTC UE发起去附 着 (Detach ) 消息, 通知 MTC UE离线。 如果由 MTC UE发起, MTC UE 在收到拒绝 PDP上下文建立的消息后, 向 SGSN发起 Detach流程。
对应上述小数据包传输的方法, 本发明还提供了一种小数据包传输的 ***, 包括: MTC UE、 媒体网关和 MTC服务器。 其中, MTC UE, 用于 在进行承载创建的过程中, 将需要发送的 d、数据包携带给网络中的媒体网 关。 媒体网关, 用于将接收的小数据包发送给 MTC服务器。 MTC服务器, 用于对来自媒体网关的小数据包进行接收。 媒体网关在 EPS 网络中为
P-GW, 在 GPRS网络中为 GGSN。
MTC UE进一步用于, 在发起附着请求或承载建立请求时, 将需要发 送的小数据包携带在附着请求或承载建立请求中发送给媒体网关。 小数据 包携带在附着请求或承载建立请求的 PCO参数中。
PCO参数中可以携带小数据包发送标识, 媒体网关根据小数据包发送 标识来识别是否需要发送小数据包。
PCO参数中还可以携带 MTC服务器的 FQDN, 媒体网关根据 FQDN 向 DNS服务器查询对应的 MTC服务器地址, 并将小数据包发送到地址对 应的 MTC服务器。
媒体网关上也可以静态配置 MTC UE标识与 MTC服务器地址的对应 关系, 媒体网关在接收到来自 MTC UE的附着请求或承载建立请求时, 根 据请求中携带的 MTC UE标识查询该对应关系获取对应 MTC服务器的地 址, 并将小数据包发送到该地址对应的 MTC服务器。
媒体网关进一步用于, 在发送完小数据包后, 向 MTC UE返回拒绝承 载创建的响应消息,且不为 MTC UE分配核心网媒体承载和无线承载资源; 该拒绝承载创建的响应消息中携带 PCO参数,且 PCO参数中携带小数据包 已发送完成的指示。
综上所述, 通过本发明, MTC UE在向 PS网络发起接入请求时, 将小 数据包在接入请求消息中直接携带给媒体网关, 避免了分配核心网媒体承 载与无线承载资源,减少了 PCC策略的申请与下发相关处理与信令的交互, 减少了建立媒体承载与无线资源承载的相关信令, 对网络流程进行了优化, 满足了离线方式下 M2M终端发送小数据包的应用需求。 另外, 本发明的小 数据包传输方法和***, 也可应用于在线传输方式。
以上所述, 仅为本发明的较佳实施例而已, 并非用于限定本发明的保 护范围。
