Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method, device, and system for circuit domain fallback.
- Second Generation (Second Generation, 2G) or Third Generation (3G) networks such as Global System of Mobile Communication (GSM) or Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) Basic coverage has been basically achieved.
- GSM Global System of Mobile Communication
- WCDMA Wideband Code Division Multiple Access
- LTE Long Term Evolution

The UE may initiate the CSFB to fall back to the 2G or 3G network again or automatically reselect the 2G or 3G network to initiate the voice service.

Description
本发明涉及通信技术领域,具体涉及一种电路域回落的方法、设备及***。
全球移动通讯***(Global System of Mobile Communication,GSM)或者宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access,WCDMA)等第二代(Second Generation,2G)或者第三代网络(Third Generation,3G)网络已经基本实现了全面覆盖。
随着长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)网络技术的发展,这些LTE网络已覆盖到一些城区和话务热点地区,这样在目前的通信网络中,LTE网络与2G或3G网络并存。由于LTE网络正在建设阶段,有的LTE网络可能只支持数据业务,不支持语音业务,当处于LTE网络中的用户设备(User Equipment,UE)发起语音业务时,UE需要先回退到具有电路交换(Circuit Switched,CS)域的2G或3G网络,在具有CS域的2G或3G网络进行语音业务,上述从LTE网络的CS域切换至2G或3G网络的CS域的技术,称为电路域回落(Circuit Switched Fallback,CSFB)技术,或者称为电路交换域回落技术;而有的LTE网络可能支持语音业务,则UE可以使用基于LTE的语音(Voice over LTE,VoLTE)业务,然而,由于LTE网络并没有实现全面覆盖,正在使用VoLTE的UE如果处于LTE网络和2G或3G网络的边界区域或即将进入只覆盖了2G或3G网络的区域,通常需要将VoLTE切换到2G或3G网络的CS域,来避免语音中断。
现有技术中,用户设备从LTE网络执行基于重定向的CSFB后,回落到2G或3G网络发起语音呼叫,此时如果2G或3G网络拥塞,将无法建立语音业务,导致呼叫失败,UE返回LTE网络。UE可能会再次发起CSFB回落到2G或3G网络或者会自动重选到2G或3G网络发起语音业务,如果2G或3G网络仍然拥塞,将再次导致呼叫失败,返回LTE网络,从而产生了乒乓效应。这不仅导致了不必要的LTE网络和2G或3G网络频繁的信令流程,加重了网络的负荷,还会影响用户设备的业务,导致用户体验差,例如在上述过程中用户可能不仅无法进行语音通话,还无法上网。
发明内容

为了更清楚地说明本发明实施例中的技术方案,下面将对实施例描述中所需要使用的附图作简单地介绍,显而易见地,下面描述中的附图仅仅是本发明的一些实施例,对于本领域技术人员来讲,在不付出创造性劳动的前提下,还可以根据这些附图获得其他的附图。

本发明实施例提供一种电路域回落的方法,在实现电路域回落的过程中,LTE网络能够提前获知2G或3G网络的CS域网络拥塞情况,终止电路域回落呼叫流程,避免不必要的LTE网络和2G或3G网络的信令流程,避免对LTE网络和2G或3G网络的信令冲击,减轻了网络的负荷,提升了用户体验。本发明实施例还提供了相应的设备及***。以下分别进行详细说明。
如图1所示,本发明实施例提供了一种电路域回落的方法。在该方法中,位于LTE网络的用户设备(User Equipment,UE)作为主叫,向LTE网络的移动性管理实体(Mobile Managenment Entity,MME)请求CSFB。所述方法如下。
S101:MME接收位于LTE网络的用户设备发送的请求消息,所述请求消息用于请求CSFB。
S102:在所述LTE网络到2G或3G网络的CS域切换准备过程中,所述MME确定所述2G或3G网络的CS域没有可用资源。
在进行CSFB过程中,需要将所述用户设备从所述LTE网络切换到2G或3G网络的CS域,从而所述MME可以在所述LTE网络到第二代2G或第三代3G网络的电路交换CS域切换准备过程中,即在所述用户设备接入到2G或3G网络的CS域之前,判断所述2G或3G网络的CS域是否有可用资源,如果没有可用资源,表明所述2G或3G网络的CS域可能拥塞。
S103:所述MME向所述用户设备发送请求拒绝消息,所述请求拒绝消息包含指示CS域不可用的原因值和定时器的值,所述请求拒绝消息用于指示所述用户设备从接收到所述请求拒绝消息开始,到所述定时器的值所对应的时长到达之前不能请求CSFB。
所述MME向所述用户设备发送请求拒绝消息,拒绝本次CSFB,从而终止CSFB。进一步,由于用户设备可能在等待一段时间后再次重选到2G或3G网络发起语音流程,因此所述请求拒绝消息可以包含指示CS域不可用的原因值和定时器的值,使得所述用户设备从接收到所述请求拒绝消息开始,到所述定时器的值所对应的时长到达之前不请求CSFB。
在本发明实施例中,MME可以在所述用户设备接入到2G或3G网络的CS
域之前,获知所述2G或3G网络的CS域拥塞情况,判断所述2G或3G网络的CS域是否有可用资源,在确定所述2G或3G网络的CS域没有可用资源时,向所述用户设备发送请求拒绝消息,从而拒绝本次CSFB。并且所述请求拒绝消息还包含指示CS域不可用的原因值和定时器的值,使得所述用户设备从接收到所述请求拒绝消息开始,到所述定时器的值所对应的时长到达之前不能请求CSFB,从而避免所述用户设备在所述2G或3G网络的CS域拥塞的情况下接入所述2G或3G网络,也避免了所述用户设备在所述2G或3G网络的CS域拥塞的情况下再次请求CSFB回落到2G或3G网络,减轻了对LTE网络和2G/3G网络的信令冲击,提高了用户体验。
如图2所示,本发明实施例提供了一种CSFB的方法。在该方法中,移动交换中心(Mobile Services Switching Centre,MSC)可以请求MME发起CSFB(即也即发起CSFB呼叫),位于LTE网络的用户设备可以作为被叫,所述方法如下。
S201:MME接收MSC发送的寻呼消息,所述寻呼消息用于请求所述MME对用户设备发起CSFB。
S202:在所述LTE网络到2G或3G网络的CS域切换准备过程中,所述MME确定所述2G或3G网络的CS域没有可用资源。
在进行CSFB时,需要将所述用户设备从所述LTE网络切换到2G或3G网络的CS域,从而所述MME可以在所述LTE网络到第二代2G或第三代3G网络的电路交换CS域切换准备过程中,即在所述用户设备接入到2G或3G网络的CS域之前,判断所述2G或3G网络的CS域是否有可用资源,如果没有可用资源,表明所述2G或3G网络的CS域可能拥塞。
S203:所述MME不向用户设备发送CSFB寻呼消息,以避免所述用户设备在接收到所述CSFB寻呼消息之后选择2G或者3G网络进行语音业务。
所述MME在确定所述2G或3G网络的CS域没有可用资源后,不向所述用户设备发送CSFB寻呼消息,使得用户设备接收不到CSFB寻呼请求,不仅避免了所述用户设备在所述2G或3G网络的CS域拥塞的情况下接入所述2G或3G网络进行语音业务,也避免了所述用户设备在所述2G或3G网络的CS域拥塞的情况下再次选择2G或者3G网络进行语音业务,减轻了对LTE网络和2G/3G网络的信令冲击,提高了用户体验。
可选地,在S102或者S202之前,所述MME可以指示LTE网络的演进基站(Envolved NodeB,eNodeB)将所述用户设备从所述LTE网络移动到2G或3G网络的CS域以进行CSFB,在eNodeB触发所述LTE网络到所述2G或3G网络的CS域切换之后,再判断所述2G或3G网络的CS域是否有可用资源,因而所述方法还包括:所述MME根据所述请求消息,向演进基站eNodeB发送通知消息,所述通知消息用于指示所述eNodeB将所述用户设备从所述LTE网络移动到2G或3G网络的CS域以进行CSFB;所述MME接收所述eNodeB根据所述通知消息返回的切换要求消息,所述切换要求消息用于触发所述LTE网络到所述2G或3G网络的CS域切换过程。
进一步,在所述MME确定所述2G或3G网络的电路交换CS域没有可用资源之后,所述MME可以向所述eNodeB发送切换要求响应消息,所述切换要求响应消息携带终止指示,所述终止指示用于指示所述eNodeb终止所述CSFB。
这是因为对于某些eNodeB而言,在向MME发送切换要求消息之后,即使没有接收到所述MME返回的任何响应消息,也可能会继续执行CSFB将用户设备从LTE网络切换到2G或3G网络的CS域。因此,所述MME可以进一步向所述eNodeB发送包含所述终止指示的切换要求响应消息,使得所述eNodeB根据所述终止指示,终止所述CSFB,即不将所述用户设备从所述LTE网络切换到所述2G或3G网络的CS域,从而避免所述用户设备在所述2G或3G网络的CS域拥塞的情况下接入到所述2G或3G网络后产生的乒乓效应,减轻了对LTE网络和2G/3G网络的信令冲击,提高了用户体验。
为更清楚地描述本发明的实施例,下面结合附图3和4,提供本发明所述的CSFB的方法的具体实施例,图1和图2的具体实现可以参考以下实施例。
参阅图3,本发明实施例提供了一种电路域呼叫的方法。
S301:UE向MME发送请求消息,所述请求消息用于请求CSFB。
所述请求消息可以是扩展业务请求。
可选地,所述MME可以判断LTE网络和2G或3G网络是否支持为CSFB将UE从LTE网络切换到2G或3G网络的CS域。MME也可以不进行判断,而是缺省认为通信网络支持为所述CSFB将所述UE从所述LTE网络切换到所述2G或3G网络的CS域,或者只对其中的某些通信网络进行判断,其中,所述通信网
络是所述LTE网络或所述2G或3G网络。
S302:所述MME根据所述扩展业务请求,向eNodeB发送通知消息,所述通知消息用于指示所述eNodeB将所述UE从LTE网络移动到2G或3G网络的CS域以进行CSFB。也就是,通知消息用于指示所述eNodeB为了进行所述CSFB将所述UE从LTE网络移动到2G或3G网络。
当MME判断LTE网络和2G或3G网络支持为所述CSFB将所述UE从所述LTE网络切换到所述2G或3G网络的CS域,MME可以通过发送通知消息告知eNodeB LTE网络和2G或3G网络是否支持为所述CSFB将所述UE从所述LTE网络切换到2G或3G网络的CS域,以使eNodeB发起将所述UE从所述LTE网络切换到2G或3G网络的CS域的切换要求。
S303:所述eNodeB向所述MME发送切换要求消息。
所述切换要求消息用于指示将所述UE从所述LTE网络切换到所述2G或3G网络的CS域,即可以用于触发所述LTE网络到所述2G或3G网络的CS域切换过程所述切换要求消息。所述切换要求消息可以为从所述LTE网络到所述2G或3G网络的CS域切换要求消息,(例如:LTE to 2G或3G SRVCC HO Required消息),或从所述LTE网络到所述2G或3G网络的PS域和CS域切换要求消息,(例如:LTE to 2G或3G SRVCC and PS HO Required消息)。
S304:所述MME向所述2G或3G网络中的MSC发送第一切换请求消息,所述第一切换请求消息用于请求所述MSC将所述UE从所述LTE网络切换到所述2G或3G网络的电路交换CS域。
S305:所述MSC向基站发送第二切换请求消息,所述第二切换请求消息用于请求所述基站为所述UE切换到所述2G或3G网络的CS域分配CS域资源。
本发明实施例中的基站包括基站控制器(Base Station Controller,BSC)或无线网络控制器(Radio Network Controller,RNC)。
S306:所述基站向所述MSC发送第二切换请求响应消息,所述第二切换请求响应消息中携带用于指示所述2G或3G网络的CS域没有可用资源的指示信息。
如果所述2G或3G网络的CS域无法分配CS域无线资源,例如目标小区没有无线资源,则所述基站可以在所述第二切换请求响应消息中携带用于指示所述2G或3G网络的CS域没有可用资源的指示信息,以通知所述MSC,所述2G或3G
网络的CS域无法分配CS域资源。
S307:所述MSC向所述MME发送第一切换响应消息,所述第一切换响应消息包含用于指示所述2G或3G网络的CS域没有可用资源的指示信息。
在接收到所述第二切换请求响应消息之后,所述MSC可以响应所述第一切换请求消息,向所述MME而发送的第一切换响应消息,由于所述第一切换响应消息中包含了用于指示所述2G或3G网络的CS域没有可用资源的指示信息,则所述第一切换响应消息也可以包含用于指示所述2G或3G网络的CS域没有可用资源的指示信息。
此外,在MSC没有资源的情况下,所述MSC向所述MME发送的第一切换响应消息也可以包含用于包含用于指示所述2G或3G网络的CS域没有可用资源的指示信息。
S308:所述MME向所述eNodeB发送切换要求响应消息,所述切换要求响应消息携带终止指示,所述终止指示用于指示所述eNodeb终止所述CSFB。
所述MME在接收到包含用于包含用于指示所述2G或3G网络的CS域没有可用资源的指示信息的第一切换响应消息时,可以通过向所述eNodeB发送终止指示来终止所述CSFB,避免所述eNodeB继续执行本次CSFB流程。
进一步,所述切换要求响应消息还可以包括用于指示所述2G或3G网络没有可用资源的指示信息。
S309:所述eNodeB终止所述CSFB。
