下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例是本发明的一部分实施例,而不是全部实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动的前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都应属于本发明保护的范围。
应理解,本发明实施例的技术方案可以应用于各种通信***,例如:全球移动通讯(Global System of Mobile communication,GSM)***、码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access,CDMA)***、宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access,WCDMA)***、通用分组无线业务(General Packet Radio Service,GPRS)、长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)***、LTE频分双工(Frequency Division Duplex,FDD)***、LTE时分双工(Time Division Duplex,TDD)、通用移动通信***(Universal Mobile Telecommunication System,UMTS)、全球互联微波接入(Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access,WiMAX)通信***等。
还应理解,在本发明实施例中,用户设备(User Equipment,UE)可称之为终端(Terminal)、移动台(Mobile Station,MS)、移动终端(Mobile Terminal)等,该用户设备可以经无线接入网(Radio Access Network,RAN)与一个或多个核心网进行通信,例如,用户设备可以是移动电话(或称为“蜂窝电话”)、具有移动终端的计算机等,例如,用户设备还可以是便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的或者车载的移动装置,它们与无线接入网交换语音和/或数据。
在本发明实施例中,基站可以是GSM或CDMA中的基站(Base Transceiver Station,BTS),也可以是WCDMA中的基站(NodeB,NB),还可以是LTE中的演进型基站(Evolutional Node B,eNB或eNodeB),本发明并不限定。但为描述方便,下述实施例将以基站eNB和用户设备UE为例进行说明。
图1是可应用本发明实施例技术方案的网络架构的示意图。如图1所示,该网络架构可以包括eNB、移动性管理实体(Mobility Management Entity,MME)、服务网关(Serving Gateway,SGW)、PGW、无线接入网拥塞感知功能(RAN Congestion Awareness Function,RCAF)、业务能力开放功能(Service Capability Exposure Function,SCEF)、MEC和OTT等网元。
eNB组成演进的UMTS陆地无线接入网(Evolved-UTRAN,E-UTRAN),实现无线物理层功能、资源调度和无线资源管理、无线接入控制以及移动性管理功能。eNB通过用户面接口S1-U和SGW相连,用于传送用户数据;通过控制面接口S1-MME和MME相连,采用S1-AP协议实现无线接入承载控制等功能。
MME主要负责用户即会话管理的所有控制平面功能,包括非接入层(Non Access Stratum,NAS)信令及安全,跟踪区列表(Tracking Area List)的管理,PGW与SGW的选择等。
SGW主要负责UE的数据传输、转发以及路由切换等,并作为UE在eNodeB之间切换时的本地移动性锚定点。
PGW为外部网络发送给UE数据的入口,负责UE的IP地址分配,UE的数据报文过滤、速率控制、生成计费信息等。
SCEF通过3GPP网络接口提供开放的业务和功能,它提供了一种业务能力开放功能的实现途径。第三方应用,例如OTT,通过SCEF提供接入网
络的功能。SCEF通过3GPP底层网络接口和协议提供服务,并且总是在信任域内,应用程序可以属于信任域,也可以位于信任域外,SCEF提供的功能包括用户鉴权、档案管理、访问控制表管理、策略执行等。
RCAF为无线网络拥塞感知功能,该网元通过操作管理维护(Operation Administration and Maintenance,OAM)收集与处理无线网络侧的小区拥塞信息;并通过Nq/Nq’接口从MME/服务GPRS支持节点(Serving GPRS Support Node,SGSN)获取拥塞小区的用户标识信息及其活动的接入点名称(Access Point Name,APN)信息,然后,根据用户标识以及其活动的APN信息向相应的策略控制与计费规则功能(Policy Control and charging Rules Function,PCRF)报告UE所处的接入网侧处于用户面拥塞状态。
MEC是靠近接入网设备的设备,能够获取UE的数据报文,并将数据报文处理完后进行路由。当第三方应用也部署在靠近接入网的位置,比如部署在MEC设备上,那么,MEC设备能够将UE的数据报文本地路由到相应的第三方应用服务器,并本地处理。
OTT是指通过互联网向用户提供各种应用服务。这种应用和目前运营商所提供的通信业务不同,它仅利用运营商的网络,而服务由运营商之外的第三方提供。
为了优化OTT的服务,接入网侧(eNB)可以对数据包进行处理,例如,在数据包中增加接入网状态信息,以便于OTT利用接入网状态信息进行拥塞控制。然而,目前接入网侧无法确定哪些数据包需要对其进行处理。另外,目前MEC也不能确定针对哪些数据包进行本地路由。本发明实施例的技术方案给eNB和MEC提供了数据包的处理策略,能够解决上述问题。
图2示出了根据本发明实施例的用于处理数据包的方法200的示意性流程图。该方法200由能力开放功能设备执行。该能力开放功能设备可以是图1中的SCEF,也可以是MEC中的能力开放功能。
S210,能力开放功能设备接收第三方应用发送的第一处理策略,该第一处理策略包括UE的外部标识、该第三方应用的标识和该UE发送给该第三方应用的数据包的处理策略,其中该UE的外部标识为该第三方应用识别该UE的标识。
第三方应用,例如OTT,向能力开放功能设备发送第一处理策略。该第一处理策略可以由第三方应用确定。该第一处理策略包括UE的外部标识、
该第三方应用的标识和该UE发送给该第三方应用的数据包的处理策略。该UE的外部标识为该第三方应用识别该UE的标识。也就是说,第三方应用针对每个UE设置数据包的处理策略。该数据包的处理策略指示是否处理该数据包。例如,针对UE1发送给OTT1的数据包的第一处理策略可以为,“UE1的外部标识,OTT1的标识,是”,该第一处理策略指示对UE1发送给OTT1的数据包进行处理。
应理解,该数据包的处理策略还可以省略,例如,针对UE1发送给OTT1的数据包的第一处理策略可以为,“UE1的外部标识,OTT1的标识”,该第一处理策略指示对UE1发送给OTT1的数据包进行处理。也就是说,若第一处理策略中存在相应标识,则需要对数据包进行处理。
该UE的外部标识为该第三方应用识别该UE的标识。可选地,该UE的外部标识可以为该UE的IP地址、电话号码或账号名。
S220,该能力开放功能设备根据该UE的外部标识,获取该UE的内部标识,其中该UE的内部标识为网络侧识别该UE的标识。
由于第三方应用发送的第一处理策略中包括的是UE的外部标识,因此需要将UE的外部标识转换为网络侧识别UE的内部标识。
该UE的内部标识为网络侧识别该UE的标识。可选地,该UE的内部标识为该UE的私网IP地址或隧道标识(Tunnel ID)。
可选地,在本发明一个实施例中,UE的外部标识为UE的公网IP地址。在这种情况下,该能力开放功能设备向PGW发送请求,请求UE的私网IP地址,该请求中包括该UE的公网IP地址。PGW根据该UE的公网IP地址,确定该UE的私网IP地址,将该UE的私网IP地址发送给该能力开放功能设备。
可选地,在本发明另一个实施例中,UE的外部标识为除UE的公网IP地址外的其他外部标识,例如,电话号码或账号名。在这种情况下,该能力开放功能设备先向归属网络服务器(Home Subscriber Server,HSS)发送请求,请求UE的国际移动用户标识(International Mobile Subscriber Identity,IMSI)/移动台国际ISDN号码(Mobile Station international ISDN number,MSISDN,该请求中包括UE的外部标识。HSS将UE的外部标识对应的UE的IMSI/MSISDN发送给该能力开放功能设备。该能力开放功能设备再向PGW发送请求,请求UE的私网IP地址,该请求中包括该UE的
IMSI/MSISDN。PGW根据该UE的IMSI/MSISDN,确定该UE的私网IP地址,将该UE的私网IP地址发送给该能力开放功能设备。
可选地,在本发明另一个实施例中,该能力开放功能设备先向HSS发送订阅请求,该请求中包括UE的外部标识。HSS向该能力开放功能设备发送请求响应,该响应包括UE的IMSI/MSISDN和目标MME地址(address)。该能力开放功能设备再向MME发送请求,请求UE的Tunnel ID信息,该请求包括UE的IMSI/MSISDN。MME向该能力开放功能设备发送请求响应,包括UE的Tunnel ID信息,例如eNB地址,eNB TEID/SGW TEID。或者,该能力开放功能设备也可以向SGW请求Tunnel ID信息,SGW向该能力开放功能设备返回eNB地址,eNB TEID/SGW TEID。
S230,该能力开放功能设备根据该UE的内部标识,确定第二处理策略,该第二处理策略包括该UE的内部标识、该第三方应用的标识和该数据包的处理策略。
在获取到UE的内部标识后,该能力开放功能设备将第一处理策略转化为第二处理策略,该第二处理策略包括该UE的内部标识、该第三方应用的标识和该数据包的处理策略。例如,针对UE1发送给OTT1的数据包的第二处理策略可以为,“UE1的内部标识,OTT1的标识,是”,该第二处理策略指示对UE1发送给OTT1的数据包进行处理。
应理解,该数据包的处理策略还可以省略,例如,针对UE1发送给OTT1的数据包的第二处理策略可以为,“UE1的内部标识,OTT1的标识”,该第二处理策略指示对UE1发送给OTT1的数据包进行处理。也就是说,若第二处理策略中存在相应标识,则需要对数据包进行处理。
S240,该能力开放功能设备在该网络侧配置该第二处理策略,该第二处理策略用于网络侧设备对该数据包进行处理。
该能力开放功能设备将该第二处理策略配置给网络侧设备,例如,网络侧的数据库、基站或MEC。这样,基站或MEC可以利用该第二处理策略对数据包进行处理。
可选地,在本发明一个实施例中,该能力开放功能设备将该第二处理策略发送给该网络侧的数据库,该数据库用于基站查询该第二处理策略,该第二处理策略用于该基站对该数据包进行处理。
在本实施例中,能力开放功能设备将第二处理策略安装到网络侧的数据
库。该数据库可以在网络侧的新增网元中,也可以在网络侧已有的网元中,本发明对此并不限定。基站在接收到UE发送给第三方应用的数据包时,在数据库中查询该第二处理策略。例如,基站向数据库发送查询请求,请求中包括UE的内部标识和第三方应用的标识,数据库向基站发送查询到的该数据包的处理策略,例如,该数据包的处理策略为“是”,即需要对该数据包进行处理。基站根据该数据包的处理策略,对该数据包进行处理。例如,在该数据包中增加接入网状态信息,然后将该数据包发送给该第三方应用。该接入网状态信息包括接入网的负荷信息和/或拥塞信息。基站可以在数据包中增加包括该接入网状态信息的包头,发送给该第三方应用。这样第三方应用可以基于该信息进行相应处理。例如,第三方应用在接收到该接入网状态信息后可以进行相应的处理,向传输控制协议(Transmission Control Protocol,TCP)服务器提供基于TCP流/用户/承载粒度的上下行链路的可用带宽,如进行视频服务时,设置匹配网络资源的视频速率,然后TCP服务器利用相应信息来进行拥塞控制决策。这样可以实时适应接入网侧的负荷情况变化,从而提高用户体验。
可选地,在本发明另一个实施例中,该能力开放功能设备将该第二处理策略发送给无线接入网拥塞感知功能设备,以使该无线接入网拥塞感知功能设备将该第二处理策略发送给基站,该第二处理策略用于该基站对该数据包进行处理。
本实施例与前一实施例的区别在于,能力开放功能设备将该第二处理策略通过无线接入网拥塞感知功能设备,例如RCAF,发送给基站,从而实现该第二处理策略在基站的配置。
可选地,该方法还包括:
该能力开放功能设备根据该UE的外部标识,获取该基站的标识;
该能力开放功能设备向该无线接入网拥塞感知功能设备发送该基站的标识。
在向基站发送该第二处理策略时,由于该能力开放功能设备可能并不知道UE的位置,即UE处在哪个基站下。若向所有的基站发送信息将消耗过多的资源,因此,可以先向HSS发起UE位置监控请求,从而获取UE的位置信息,再通过RCAF向对应的基站发送该第二处理策略。
具体地,能力开放功能设备向HSS发送监控请求,包括UE的外部标识。
HSS审核请求,向MME/SGSN发送***用户数据请求。MME/SGSN处理该请求,查找对应UE的小区(cell)/路由区(Routing Area,RA)/跟踪区(Tracking Area,TA)/eNB信息。MME/SGSN向HSS发送***用户数据答复,其中包括UE的eNB-ID/cell-ID/路由区标识(Routing Area Identity,RAI)/跟踪区标识(Tracking Area Identity,TAI)信息、UE的IP地址。HSS向能力开放功能设备发送监控响应,包括UE的eNB-ID/cell-ID/RAI/TAI信息、UE的IP地址。这样,能力开放功能设备获取了UE的位置,即存在于哪一个eNodeB之下及UE的IP地址。上述为协议23.682中的监控事件:位置报告,在此增加了向MME获取UE的IP地址。然后,能力开放功能设备向RCAF发送该第二处理策略以及UE对应的eNB-ID。RCAF向相应eNodeB发送该第二处理策略,从而实现该第二处理策略在基站的配置。
基站在接收到UE发送给第三方应用的数据包时,根据UE的内部标识和第三方应用的标识,在基站中查询该第二处理策略,获取该数据包的处理策略。例如,该数据包的处理策略为“是”,即需要对该数据包进行处理。基站根据该数据包的处理策略,对该数据包进行处理,具体处理方式可参见前一实施例,为了简洁,在此不再赘述。
可选地,在本发明另一个实施例中,该能力开放功能设备将该第二处理策略发送给移动边缘计算平台,该第二处理策略用于该移动边缘计算平台对该数据包进行处理。
在本实施例中,能力开放功能设备将第二处理策略安装到移动边缘计算平台。该移动边缘计算平台获取到UE发送给第三方应用的数据包时,根据该UE的内部标识和该第三方应用的标识,在该移动边缘计算平台中查询该第二处理策略,获取该数据包的处理策略。例如,该数据包的处理策略为“是”,即需要对该数据包进行处理。该移动边缘计算平台根据该数据包的处理策略,对该数据包进行本地路由。这样,数据包可直接路由给第三方应用,不再通过核心网发送给第三方应用。可选地,该移动边缘计算平台还可以进行本地处理,例如,获取接入网侧的负载信息、无线链路质量信息,并反馈给内容优化处理单元,进行动态调整(例如用于视频码率调整),从而可以提高用户的体验,减少时延和卡顿次数。
在本发明实施例中,可选地,该方法还包括:
该能力开放功能设备获取该UE的更新后的内部标识和该UE的更新前
的内部标识;
该能力开放功能设备根据该UE的更新后的内部标识和该UE的更新前的内部标识,在该网络侧更新配置该第二处理策略。
UE的内部标识可能会发生变化。例如,当UE切换为空闲(IDLE)态后再重新连接到网络时,其私网IP地址将会产生变化。在这种情况下,可以根据更新前后的内部标识更新该第二处理策略。
例如,以私网IP地址发生变化为例,该能力开放功能设备向PGW发送订阅信息请求,请求中包括UE的私网IP地址。PGW向该能力开放功能设备发送订阅信息响应。当UE连接状态切换,重新接入网络,重新分配IP地址导致私网IP地址发生改变时,PGW将更新后的私网IP地址与更新前的私网IP地址通过订阅信息响应发送给该能力开放功能设备。该能力开放功能设备在该网络侧更新配置该第二处理策略。例如,该能力开放功能设备向数据库发送该UE的更新后的内部标识和该UE的更新前的内部标识;该数据库根据该UE的更新后的内部标识和该UE的更新前的内部标识,更新该移动边缘计算平台中的该第二处理策略。或者该能力开放功能设备向无线接入网拥塞感知功能设备发送该UE的更新后的内部标识和该UE的更新前的内部标识,该无线接入网拥塞感知功能设备将该UE的更新后的内部标识和该UE的更新前的内部标识发送给基站;该基站根据该UE的更新后的内部标识和该UE的更新前的内部标识,更新该基站中的该第二处理策略。或者,该能力开放功能设备向移动边缘计算平台发送该UE的更新后的内部标识和该UE的更新前的内部标识;该移动边缘计算平台根据该UE的更新后的内部标识和该UE的更新前的内部标识,更新该移动边缘计算平台中的该第二处理策略。
本发明实施例的用于处理数据包的方法,根据第三方应用发送的第一处理策略在网络侧配置第二处理策略,能够对第三方应用的数据包进行按策略处理,从而能够提高第三方应用的数据包的传输效率。
图3示出了根据本发明另一实施例的用于处理数据包的方法300的示意性流程图。该方法300由网络侧设备执行。如图3所示,该方法300包括:
S310,网络侧设备获取UE发送给第三方应用的数据包,该数据包包括该UE的内部标识和该第三方应用的标识,其中该UE的内部标识为网络侧识别该UE的标识;
S320,该网络侧设备根据该UE的内部标识和该第三方应用的标识,查询第二处理策略,获取该数据包的处理策略,其中该第二处理策略包括该UE的内部标识、该第三方应用的标识和该数据包的处理策略,该第二处理策略是由能力开放功能设备根据第三方应用的第一处理策略得到并在该网络侧配置的,该第一处理策略包括该UE的外部标识、该第三方应用的标识和该数据包的处理策略,该UE的外部标识为该第三方应用识别该UE的标识;
