Description

一种路径建立方法、设备及***、核心网设备Path establishing method, device and system, core network device
本申请要求在2014年2月20日提交中华人民共和国知识产权局、申请号为201410058859.8、发明名称为“一种路径建立方法、设备及***、核心网设备”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。This application claims the priority of the Chinese patent application submitted to the Intellectual Property Office of the People's Republic of China on February 20, 2014, with the application number 201410058859.8, and the invention name is “a path establishment method, equipment and system, core network equipment”. The entire contents are incorporated herein by reference.
技术领域Technical field
本发明涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种路径建立方法、设备及***、核心网设备。The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a path establishment method, device and system, and core network device.
背景技术Background technique
邻近通信中的一种场景是两个用户设备(User Equipment,UE)通过一个或多个演进型基站(evolved NodeB,eNB)进行直接通信。One scenario in the proximity communication is that two User Equipments (UEs) perform direct communication through one or more evolved NodeBs (eNBs).
现有协议定义的两个UE间在通信时,其数据通道如图1所示,UE 1将数据发送到服务的eNB1,而eNB1会将数据传递到UE1的服务的核心网设备:服务网关(Serving GW)和分组数据网络网关(Packet Data Network Gateway,PGW)。PGW会根据UE的路由表将数据路由到UE2的服务PGW和Serving GW,UE2的服务Serving GW将数据传递到UE2的服务eNB2,再通过eNB2传递给UE2。图1中所示的例子是当UE1和UE2的服务Serving GW和PGW相同时的场景,此时省略了为UE1服务的PGW将数据路由到为UE2服务的PGW的过程。When two UEs defined by the existing protocol are communicating, their data channels are as shown in FIG. 1. The UE 1 transmits data to the serving eNB1, and the eNB1 transmits the data to the core network device of the UE1 service: the serving gateway ( Serving GW) and Packet Data Network Gateway (PGW). The PGW will route the data to the serving PGW and the Serving GW of the UE2 according to the routing table of the UE. The Serving GW of the UE2 transmits the data to the serving eNB2 of the UE2, and then transmits the data to the UE2 through the eNB2. The example shown in FIG. 1 is a scenario when the Serving GW and the PGW of the UE1 and the UE2 are the same, and the process of routing the data to the PGW serving the UE2 by the PGW serving the UE1 is omitted.
由图1所示可以看出,即使通信的两个UE之间的距离非常近,通信数据也需要通过各自的服务eNB以及核心网才能到达对端。而邻近通信技术正在研究当通信双方满足一定条件时(如距离很近),两个UE之间的直接通信或者仅经由eNB的直接通信,其数据传输路径如图1a和图1b所示。As can be seen from FIG. 1, even if the distance between the two UEs communicating is very close, the communication data needs to reach the opposite end through the respective serving eNB and the core network. The proximity communication technology is studying when the communication parties satisfy certain conditions (such as close proximity), direct communication between two UEs or direct communication only via the eNB, and the data transmission path thereof is as shown in FIG. 1a and FIG. 1b.
图1a和图1b所示为实现邻近通信后UE之间的数据传输路径图。UE1和UE2可以不需要经过移动网络设备直接传输数据,或者通过同一个eNB转发数据而不需要经过核心网。这种传输方式可以减少数据传输延时,并且可以节省网络的资源,特别是核心网的网络资源。FIG. 1a and FIG. 1b are diagrams showing data transmission paths between UEs after implementing proximity communication. UE1 and UE2 may not need to directly transmit data through the mobile network device, or forward data through the same eNB without going through the core network. This transmission method can reduce the data transmission delay and save network resources, especially the network resources of the core network.
除了上述两种路由路径外,满足邻近通信条件的UE还可以通过两个eNB进行直接通信,如图3所示,UE1和UE2之间的邻近通信数据分别经过eNB1和eNB2传输,无需经过核心网。In addition to the above two routing paths, a UE that satisfies the neighboring communication condition can also perform direct communication through two eNBs. As shown in FIG. 3, the proximity communication data between UE1 and UE2 is transmitted through eNB1 and eNB2, respectively, without going through the core network. .
具有邻近通信能力的UE需要在一定范围之内才能进行邻近通信。判断两个UE邻近关系的过程称为邻近通信业务(Proximity-based Services,ProSe)发现过程。ProSe发现分为两大类方法:直接发现和基于核心网的发现。A UE with proximity communication capability needs to be within a certain range to perform proximity communication. The process of judging the proximity relationship between two UEs is called a Proximity-based Services (ProSe) discovery process. ProSe discovery is divided into two broad categories of methods: direct discovery and core network based discovery.
直接发现是指ProSe UE直接通过UE之间的信令发现其附近的ProSe UE的过程。Direct discovery refers to a process in which a ProSe UE discovers a ProSe UE in its vicinity directly through signaling between UEs.
基于核心网的发现是指由网络来判断两个ProSe UE是否满足邻近通信条件的过程。一种基于核心网的发现流程如图4所示,包括步骤:Core network based discovery refers to the process by which the network determines whether two ProSe UEs satisfy neighboring communication conditions. A discovery process based on the core network is shown in Figure 4, including the steps:
1a和1b:UE A和UE B分别注册到各自的ProSe功能(Function)实体中,所述ProSe功能实体在图中示为邻近通信功能A或邻近通信功能B。其中,ProSe功能实体是核心网中执行ProSe发现、标识映射等的实体。1a and 1b: UE A and UE B are respectively registered in respective ProSe Function entities, which are shown in the figure as proximity communication function A or proximity communication function B. The ProSe functional entity is an entity that performs ProSe discovery, identity mapping, and the like in the core network.
2.UE A向网络请求与UE B之间的邻近信息,比如,当UE A与UE B之间的距离小于一 定值时收到网络通知。2. UE A requests proximity information between the UE and the UE B, for example, when the distance between UE A and UE B is less than one. Receive a network notification when setting.
3a和3b:网络分别对UE A和UE B进行定位。在该过程中,网络可以获知UE当前驻留的小区,以及更细粒度的位置信息。3a and 3b: The network locates UE A and UE B, respectively. In this process, the network can learn the cell where the UE is currently camped, as well as the finer-grained location information.
4.当ProSe功能实体A(图中示为邻近通信功能A)检测到UE A和UE B处于邻近范围内时,ProSe功能实体A向UE A发出通知消息。4. When ProSe functional entity A (shown as proximity communication function A in the figure) detects that UE A and UE B are in the proximity range, ProSe functional entity A issues a notification message to UE A.
但是,现有技术没有给出两个UE经由两个eNB进行直接通信场景下,通信路径如何建立的方案。However, the prior art does not teach how the communication path is established in the case where two UEs perform direct communication via two eNBs.

本发明实施例提出一种建立经由两个eNB的邻近通信业务直接通信路径的方案。本发明实施例中,进行邻近通信的UE包括通信发起方UE和通信终止方UE,下文分别简称为第一UE和第二UE。若无特殊指示,“UE”均表示第一UE。第一UE和第二UE各自驻留的基站分别称为第一基站和第二基站,本发明实施例中仅关注第一基站和第二基站不同的场景。Embodiments of the present invention provide a solution for establishing a direct communication path of a neighboring communication service via two eNBs. In the embodiment of the present invention, the UE performing the proximity communication includes a communication initiator UE and a communication terminator UE, which are hereinafter referred to as a first UE and a second UE, respectively. If there is no special indication, "UE" indicates the first UE. The base stations in which the first UE and the second UE respectively reside are referred to as the first base station and the second base station, respectively. In the embodiment of the present invention, only the scenarios in which the first base station and the second base station are different are focused.
本发明实施例提供的一种由网络发起的经由两个eNB的直接路径建立方法,包括两个大的步骤:A network-initiated direct path establishment method via two eNBs provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes two major steps:
第一步骤:核心网设备确定通信双方UE各自所在的基站可以建立通信链路。The first step: the core network device determines that the base station where the communication UEs are located can establish a communication link.
第二步骤:核心网设备发起建立经由两个基站的直接通信路径。Second step: The core network device initiates establishing a direct communication path via the two base stations.
所述第一步骤具体有三种实现方式: The first step specifically has three implementation manners:
方式一:核心网设备中配置有下属基站两两之间是否有直接接口的信息。该配置由运营商基于网络拓扑完成。Manner 1: The core network device is configured with information about whether there is a direct interface between the two subordinate base stations. This configuration is done by the operator based on the network topology.
方式二:基站在建立与核心网设备之间的非UE相关连接时,向核心网设备上报与自身有直接接口的其它基站的信息。根据该信息,核心网设备维护基站之间直接接口的数据库。此处,所述核心网设备可以是移动性管理实体。Manner 2: When the base station establishes a non-UE related connection with the core network device, the base station reports information of other base stations that have direct interfaces with itself to the core network device. Based on this information, the core network device maintains a database of direct interfaces between the base stations. Here, the core network device may be a mobility management entity.
方式三:核心网设备通过UE相关信令向第一基站直接发送询问消息,其中携带第二基站标识。其中,第二基站标识可以由核心网在邻近通信发现过程中获得,具体方法不在本发明范围之内。该方式三包括两个步骤:Manner 3: The core network device directly sends an inquiry message to the first base station by using UE-related signaling, where the second base station identifier is carried. The second base station identifier may be obtained by the core network in the proximity communication discovery process, and the specific method is not within the scope of the present invention. This method three includes two steps:
步骤一:核心网设备向第一基站直接发送询问消息,其中携带第二基站标识。其中,第二基站的标识可以是eNB ID或演进的通用陆地无线接入网(Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network,E-UTRAN)小区全球标识(E-UTRAN Cell Global Identity,ECGI)。Step 1: The core network device directly sends an inquiry message to the first base station, where the second base station identifier is carried. The identifier of the second base station may be an eNB ID or an Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN) E-UTRAN Cell Global Identity (ECGI).
步骤二:第一基站根据第二基站标识判断自身与该第二基站之间是否可以建立通信链路,如果可以则向核心网返回接受消息,否则返回拒绝消息。Step 2: The first base station determines, according to the second base station identifier, whether a communication link can be established between itself and the second base station, and if yes, returns an accept message to the core network, otherwise returns a reject message.
所述第二步骤中,核心网设备发起建立经由两个基站的直接通信路径的过程中,核心网设备可以在UE的直接通信请求消息触发下,发起建立经由两个基站的直接通信路径;或者,核心网设备也可以基于内部判断发起建立经由两个基站的直接通信路径,例如通过邻近发现结果显示第一UE和第二UE满足邻近通信条件,发起建立经由两个基站的直接通信路径。In the second step, in a process in which the core network device initiates establishing a direct communication path through two base stations, the core network device may initiate establishment of a direct communication path via two base stations, triggered by a direct communication request message of the UE; or The core network device may also initiate establishment of a direct communication path via two base stations based on internal judgments, for example, by indicating that the first UE and the second UE satisfy the proximity communication condition by the proximity discovery result, and initiate establishment of a direct communication path via the two base stations.
具体地,核心网设备在UE的直接通信请求消息触发下,发起建立经由两个基站的直接通信路径时,UE向核心网设备发送的直接通信请求消息中包含第一UE标识和第二UE标识。其中,第一UE标识可以是全球移动用户标识(International Mobile Subscriber Identity,IMSI)或其邻近通信标识,如ProSe UE ID或ProSe应用(Application)ID。第二UE标识可以是邻近通信标识,如ProSe UE ID或ProSe Application ID。Specifically, the core network device, when triggered by the direct communication request message of the UE, initiates the establishment of the direct communication path via the two base stations, and the direct communication request message sent by the UE to the core network device includes the first UE identifier and the second UE identifier. . The first UE identifier may be an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) or a neighboring communication identifier, such as a ProSe UE ID or a ProSe Application ID. The second UE identity may be a proximity communication identity, such as a ProSe UE ID or a ProSe Application ID.
核心网设备基于内部判断发起建立经由两个基站的直接通信路径时,具体包括两种方式:When the core network device initiates the establishment of a direct communication path via two base stations based on internal judgment, the two methods are specifically included:
方式一:基于核心网设备,具体包括步骤:Method 1: Based on the core network device, specifically including the steps:
一、核心网设备获取第一基站用于直接通信的IP地址和隧道端口号。其中,核心网设备可以向第一基站发送直接路径隧道信息请求消息,第一基站收到后返回自身用于直接通信的IP地址和隧道端口号;或者,核心网可以通过询问消息获得第一基站用于直接通信的IP地址和隧道端口号。当第一基站收到询问消息后,如果第一基站与第二基站之间可以建立通信链路,则在接受消息中携带用于直接通信的IP地址和隧道端口号。1.

The core network device may send a direct path tunnel information request message to the first base station, and the first base station returns an IP address and a tunnel port number for direct communication after receiving the first base station; or the core network may obtain the first base station by using an inquiry message. IP address and tunnel port number for direct communication. After the first base station receives the inquiry message, if the communication link can be established between the first base station and the second base station, the IP address and the tunnel port number for direct communication are carried in the accept message.
二、核心网设备向第二基站发送路径建立请求消息,其中携带第一基站用于直接通信的IP地址和隧道端口号。第二基站与第二UE进行RRC(Radio Resource Control,无线资源控制)重配过程,建立第二基站与第二UE之间用于直接通信的无线承载。第二基站向核心网设备返回路径建立响应消息,其中包含第二基站用于直接通信的IP地址和隧道端口号。2. The core network device sends a path establishment request message to the second base station, where the IP address and the tunnel port number used by the first base station for direct communication are carried. The second base station performs an RRC (Radio Resource Control) reconfiguration process with the second UE, and establishes a radio bearer for direct communication between the second base station and the second UE. The second base station returns a path setup response message to the core network device, where the IP address and tunnel port number used by the second base station for direct communication are included.
其中,关于核心网设备如何获知第二UE驻留的第二基站,包括:The second base station, where the core network device learns that the second UE camps, includes:
核心网设备从第一UE的请求消息中获得第二UE的标识信息,并根据该标识信息获取到第二UE的永久标识,例如国际移动用户标识(International Mobile Subscriber Identifier,IMSI),其中,第二UE的标识信息和第二UE的永久标识如何映射,以及核心网设备如何获取到第二UE的永久标识,可以采用现有技术。 The core network device obtains the identifier information of the second UE from the request message of the first UE, and obtains the permanent identifier of the second UE according to the identifier information, for example, an International Mobile Subscriber Identifier (IMSI), where The prior art can be used to map how the identity information of the second UE and the permanent identity of the second UE are mapped, and how the core network device obtains the permanent identity of the second UE.

如果第二UE是空闲态,则核心网设备发起寻呼,从而可获得第二UE当前驻留的基站(也即第二基站)的标识;If the second UE is in an idle state, the core network device initiates paging, so that an identifier of the base station (ie, the second base station) currently camped by the second UE can be obtained;
如果第二UE是连接态,则核心网设备存储的第二UE的上下文信息中就包含第二基站的标识。If the second UE is in the connected state, the identifier of the second UE is included in the context information of the second UE stored by the core network device.

当采用核心网设备发起直接通信路径建立时,第一基站和第二基站之间的路径建立相关消息需要通过第一UE和第二UE各自所属的核心网设备进行中转。When the core network device initiates the establishment of the direct communication path, the path establishment related message between the first base station and the second base station needs to be transited by the core network device to which the first UE and the second UE belong.

三、第二基站根据第一基站发送的路径建立请求消息中的标识信息,获知要对第二UE建立直接通信路径。第二基站与第二UE进行RRC重配过程,建立第二基站与第二UE之间用于直接通信的无线承载。The second base station learns to establish a direct communication path to the second UE according to the identifier information in the path establishment request message sent by the first base station.
