Description

一种通信接口故障的处理方法和装置 技术领域
本申请涉及通信领域,并且更具体地,涉及一种通信接口故障的处理方法和装置。
背景技术
第三代合作伙伴项目(3rd Generation Partnership Project,简称“3GPP”)长期演进(Long Term Evolution,简称“LTE”)中,接入网设备(例如,基站(eNode B,简称“eNB”))与核心网设备(例如,移动性管理实体(Mobility Management Entity,简称“MME”)、服务网关(Serving Gateway,简称“SGW”))之间通过S1接口通信连接,接入网设备之间通过X2接口通信连接。因此,接口的可靠性直接影响着通信的可靠性。
以S1接口为例,S1控制面接口位于eNB和MME之间,传输网络层是利用网际协议(Internet Protocol,简称“IP”)传输,为了可靠地传输信令消息,在IP层上添加了流控制传输协议(Streaming Control Transmission Protocol,简称“SCTP”),应用层的信令协议为S1应用层协议(S1-Application Protocol,简称“S1AP”)。
但是,由于对端网元(例如,MME)软件问题、两端SCTP链路防闪参数不同等原因造成eNB和MME两端的S1接口状态不一致时,尤其是在MME侧闪断而eNB侧正常的情况下,MME不能主动发起S1接口的重建,进而可能导致S1接口通信中断。
因此,需要提供一种技术,能够在两端的接口状态不一致时,及时地感知到接口的异常,并能够快速地修复通信接口,提高接口可靠性,进而提高通信可靠性。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚地描述。
应理解,本申请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,简称“GSM”)***、码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access,简称“CDMA”)***、宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access,简称“WCDMA”)***、通用分组无线业务(General Packet Radio Service,简称“GPRS”)、LTE***、先进的长期演进(Advanced long term evolution,简称“LTE-A”)***、Universal Mobile Telecommunication System,简称“UMTS”)或下一代通信***,例如,第五代通信(fifth-generation,简称“5G”)等。
为便于理解,首先结合图1简要介绍演进型UMTS陆地无线接入网(Evolved UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network,简称“E-UTRAN”)接口的协议栈。
图1示出了MME和eNB的协议栈的示意图。由图1可以看到,在目前的LTE网络中,MME设备和eNB设备之间的用户信令传输使用的是S1-AP协议,该协议保证用户信令的传送,其传输层协议使用的是SCTP协议。
因此,若MME与eNB之间正常地通信,需要保证图1中示出的各层的链路都处于正常状态。例如,若SCTP链路异常,则会导致MME和eNB之间不能正常通信;若SCTP链路正常,而S1AP链路异常,也会导致MME和eNB之间不能正常通信。
换句话说,S1接口包括各层对等的协议实体构成的链路,例如至少包括:SCTP链路、S1AP链路等。
与之相似地,在基站间的X2接口,例如,在eNB和eNB之间,用户信令传输使用的是X2-AP协议,传输层协议使用的是SCTP协议。X2接口包括各层对等的协议实体构成的链路,例如至少包括:SCTP链路、X2AP链路等。
以下,为方便理解和说明,以S1接口的链路为例,详细说明本申请实施例。
如上所述,在SCTP链路正常,而S1AP链路异常的情况下,会导致MME和eNB之间不能正常通信。但是,S1AP链路的异常有可能出现以下几种情况:
情况a、eNB侧正常,MME侧异常;
情况b、eNB侧异常,MME侧正常;
情况c、eNB侧和MME侧都出现异常。
可以理解,以上三种情况中任意一种情况出现都会导致MME和eNB之间不能正常通信。若出现情况c,则eNB侧在SCTP链路异常时可以触发S1AP建立(Setup)流程;若出现情况b,因eNB侧无法将消息发送给MME,eNB可以主动释放SCTP链路,以通知对端的MME链路异常,MME释放S1AP链路,接着eNB主动发起S1AP Setup流程;若出现情况a,因eNB侧可以将消息发送到MME,而MME因自身异常而不会作出任何处理,eNB因并不知道MME侧故障,故不会主动发起S1建立(Setup)流程。因此,本申请实施例主要针对该场景,提出一种通信接口故障的处理方法。
为了便于理解本申请实施例,首先结合图2说明S1建立的具体过程。图2从设备交互的角度示出了S1建立的示意性流程图。如图2所示,S1建立流程具体包括以下步骤:
201、在传输层,eNB向MME发送SCTP链路初始化(SCTP Init)消息;
202、MME向eNB发送SCTP链路初始化响应(SCTP Init Ack)消息,该SCTP Init Ack消息中携带缓存(Cookie);
203、eNB向MME发送SCTP缓存响应(SCTP Cookie Echo)消息;
204、MME向eNB发送SCTP缓存响应反馈(SCTP Cookie Echo Ack)消息。此时,SCTP链路建立(Established)完成;
205、在协议层,eNB向MME发送S1建立(S1Setup)消息;
206、MME向eNB发送S1建立响应(S1Setup Response)消息。此时,S1AP链路建立完成。
由上述过程可以看到,上述步骤201至204即为SCTP链路建立的过程,在建立起SCTP链路后,进一步通过步骤205和206建立S1AP链路。需要说明的是,图2中虽然仅示出了SCTP链路和S1AP链路的建立,但这不应对本申请构成任何限定。本领域的技术人员可以理解,释放S1AP链路,可以理解为将S1AP层以及其下层(例如,包括SCTP层、IP层等,具体可以参看图1)的链路信息全部释放掉。建立S1AP链路,可以理解为将S1AP层以及其下层之间的链路全部建立起来。换句话说,S1AP链路和SCTP链路共用SCTP层及其以下各层的协议实体。
需要注意的是,S1AP链路的重建只能由eNB发起,也就是说,在上述情况a下,MME异常而eNB未知的情况下,eNB是不会主动发起S1AP链路重建的。因此,需要提供一种方法,能够在MME异常的情况下,触发eNB主动发起S1AP链路重建。
图3至图5示出了根据本申请实施例的通信接口故障的处理方法的示意性流程图。应理解,图3至图5示出了本申请实施例的通信接口故障的处理方法的通信步骤或操作,但这些步骤或操作仅是示例,本申请实施例还可以执行其它操作或者图中的各种操作的变形。此外,图中的各个步骤可以按照与图中呈现的不同的顺序来执行,并且有可能并非要执行图中的全部操作。
需要说明的是,各图中示出的通信接口故障的处理方法中的各步骤可以由第一网络设备来执行,在第一通信接口为S1接口的场景下,该第一网络设备与第二网络设备通过S1接口通信连接,该第一网络设备可以为接入网设备,该第二网络设备可以为核心网设备,传输层链路可以为SCTP链路,应用层链路可以为S1AP链路(情况一,对应图3),或者,该第一网络设备可以为核心网设备,该第二网络设备可以为接入网设备,传输层链路可以为SCTP链路,应用层链路可以为S1AP链路(情况二,对应图4);在第一通信接口为X2接口的场景下,该第一网络设备与第二网络设备通过X2接口通信连接,该第一网络设备和该第二网络设备可以为接入网设备,传输层链路可以为SCTP链路,应用层链路可以为X2AP链路(情况三,对应图5)。
需要说明的是,SCTP链路可以理解为在两个端点(例如,MME和eNB,或者,第一eNB和第二eNB)之间提供稳定、有序的数据传输服务的链路。 它是一种基于提供不可靠传输业务的协议(例如,IP)之上的可靠的数据报文传输协议。它用于提供面向连接的可靠的数据报文传输。端点是SCTP的基本逻辑概念,是数据报文的逻辑发送端和接收端,是一个典型的逻辑实体。例如,在本申请实施例中,发送端可以为MME,接收端可以为eNB,对于发送端MME而言,本端为其自身,对端为eNB,而对于接收端eNB而言,本身为其自身,对端为MME。
SCTP端点由一组具有相同SCTP端口号的传输地址标识,且SCTP协议规定两个端点之间能且仅能建立一条连接。所以,SCTP端点可能有多个传输地址,但这些传输地址有唯一的端口号。
在本申请实施例中,接入网设备可以为无线局域网(Wireless Local Area Networks,简称“WLAN”)中的接入点(Access Point,简称“AP”),GSM或CDMA中的基站(Base Transceiver Station,简称“BTS”),也可以是WCDMA中的基站(NodeB,简称“NB”),还可以是LTE中的演进型基站(Evolutional Node B,简称“eNode B”或“eNB”),或者中继站或接入点,或者车载设备、可穿戴设备以及未来5G网络中的gNB或者未来演进的公共陆地移动网络(Public Land Mobile Network,简称“PLMN”)网络中的网络设备等。
在本申请实施例中,核心网设备可以为MME,MME是控制面网元,主要负责用户设备的移动性管理和会话管理等控制面功能。
以下结合图3至图5,以及上文描述的三种情况,详细说明根据本申请实施例的通信接口故障的处理方法。
情况一:
图3示出了根据本申请一实施例的通信接口故障的处理方法300的示意性流程图。在图3示出的方法300中,第一网络设备可以为eNB,第二网络设备可以为MME。但应理解,这里仅为示例,而不应对本申请构成任何限定。
如图3所示,该方法300包括:
S310,eNB确定通过S1接口传输的业务的成功率是否满足预设条件。
通过S1接口传输的业务的成功率,可以理解用于指示通过S1接口正常通信的一个指标。在本申请实施例中,由于该通信链路涉及业务层面,因此,可以称为业务成功率,或者,也可以称为通信的成功率,消息响应率等。本 申请对此并未特别限定。具体地,当链路处于正常通信状态,本端与对端之间的交互正常,可能遭受通信中断、业务丢失等故障的几率较小,即,成功率较高;当链路处于异常状态,本端与对端之间的交互异常,可能造成通信中断、业务丢失等故障的几率较大,即,成功率较低。
作为一个可能的实施例,该业务成功率可以通过eNB端监测发出的某些消息是否得到响应来确定。例如,在用户设备(User Equipment,简称“UE”)开机附着流程中,或者,在跟踪区域更新(Tracking Area Update,简称“TAU”)流程中,或者,在核心网主动发起的寻呼(Paging)流程中,eNB可以向MME发送初始UE消息(Initial UE message),在链路正常的情况下,MME可以向eNB发送初始上下文建立请求(Initial context setup request)消息。
这里,为便于区分和说明,将第一网络设备(例如,该eNB)发送的消息记作第一消息,将第一网络设备(例如,该eNB)接收到的第二网络设备(例如,MME)发送的消息记作第二消息。
可选地,S310可以具体包括:
该eNB在第一预设时段内通过S1接口发送的第一消息和通过S1接口接收到的第二消息的总数量是否小于预设的第一门限。
具体地,该eNB可以预先设定一个时段(为便于区分和说明,记作第一预设时段),在该第一预设时段内监测通过该S1接口发送和接收消息的总数量。例如,该第一预设时段可以为8:00至20:00。在监测到该第一预设时段内通过该S1接口收发消息的总数量小于预设的第一门限时,确定该eNB通过S1接口传输的业务的成功率满足预设条件,进而判定状态异常。
可以理解的是,由于eNB所覆盖的区域不同,话务量也不相同,例如,山区与城市的话务量就有着非常大的差别,因此,所对应的第一门限也可能是不同的,覆盖山区的eNB所对应的第一门限可能较小,覆盖城市的eNB所对应的第一门限可能较大。
可选地,S310可以具体包括:
该eNB确定在第二预设时段内通过S1接口接收到第二消息的数量与通过S1接口发送的第一消息的数量的比值是否小于预设的第二门限。
具体地,该eNB可以预先设定一个时段(为便于区分和说明,记作第二预设时段),在该第二预设时段内监测该eNB通过S1接口接收到的第二消息的数量与发送的第一消息的数量的比值,若监测到该第二预设时段内该 eNB通过该S1接口接收到的第二消息的数量与发送的第一消息的数量的比值小于预设的第二门限,确定该eNB通过S1接口传输的业务的成功率满足预设条件,进而判定状态异常。
进一步地,由于该比值在一定程度上也与该eNB的话务量相关,即与eNB所覆盖的区域相关。可以结合该eNB在该第二预设时段内通过S1接口发送的第一消息和通过S1接口接收到的第二消息的总数量来判定本端的S1接口是否异常。
可选地,在该eNB确定在第二预设时段内通过S1接口接收到第二消息的数量与通过S1接口发送的第一消息的数量的比值小于预设的第二门限之前,该方法还包括:
该eNB确定在第二预设时段内通过S1接口发送的第一消息和通过S1接口接收到的第二消息的总数量大于或等于预设的第三门限。
其中,预设的第三门限可以理解为一个样本大小,即,当eNB确定在第二预设时段内通过S1接口收发消息的数量满足样本大小的门限时,才进一步确定接收到的第二消息与发送的第一消息的数量之比是否小于预设的第二门限。举例来说,eNB确定在第二预设时段内通过S1接口收发消息的数量满足样本大小的门限(例如,100条消息)时,便进一步确定该S1接口在该第二预设时段内是否只是发送了100条消息,而未收到任何消息,或者,发送的消息数量远远大于接收到的消息的数量。也就是监测该S1接口是否“只出不进”。
可以理解的是,该预设的第三门限同样与该eNB的话务量相关。
需要说明的是,上文中所列举的第一预设时段和第二预设时段仅为区分两种不同的判定方法,该第一预设时段和第二预设时段可以为时长相同或不同的时段,本申请对此并未特别限定。在第一预设时段与第二预设时段为相同时长的情况下,上述两种判定业务成功率是否满足预设条件的方法可以结合使用,此时,预设的第一门限与预设的第三门限相同。即,先判断在第一预设时段内通过S1接口收发消息的数量是否大于或等于预设的第一门限。若否,则直接确定该eNB侧的S1接口异常;若是,则进一步确定在该第一预设时段内通过S1接口接收到的第二消息的数量与发送的第一消息的数量的比值是否大于预设的第二门限,若否,则确定该eNB侧的S1接口异常,若是,则确定该eNB侧的S1接口正常,暂时不需要处理。
由于上文所描述的方法中,所监测的eNB发送的第一消息,MME可以进行回复或者不回复。若所采集的样本中的所有的第一消息都是不需要MME回复的,则,即便检测到eNB发送的第一消息的数量为样本的全部,而第二消息的数量为零,也不一定能确定该eNB侧的S1接口异常。
因此,为了提高鲁棒性,该eNB可以进一步提高判断的准确率,可以预定义所监测的第一消息中至少包括部分对端必须回复的第二消息。即,若eNB通过S1接口向MME发送该第一消息,MME在通信正常情况下,必须要向该eNB回复第二消息。这样,可以根据MME是否针对接收到的第一消息回复第二消息来更准确地确定业务成功率。在这种情况下,该业务的成功率可以理解为消息响应率。
在本申请实施例中,作为示例而非限定,该第一消息可以为初始用户设备消息(Initial UE message),该第二消息为初始上下文建立请求(Initial context setup request)消息。
由上述方法,eNB可以确定本端的S1接口故障。
S320,eNB在确定通过S1接口传输的业务的成功率满足预设条件时,释放SCTP链路(即,传输层链路的一例)。
eNB在确定本端的S1接口故障后,需要重建S1接口。但是由于MME并不知道eNB侧的S1接口故障,在MME看来,S1接口是正常的。因此,eNB可以通过释放SCTP链路的方式通知对端的MME S1接口故障。当eNB释放SCTP链路后,可以通过SCTP实体之间的握手机制,使对端(即,MME)释放S1AP链路。具体地,eNB释放SCTP链路,可以理解为释放SCTP链路信息和实体。其中,SCTP链路信息包括:本端及对端的IP地址、本端及对端的端口号,SCTP层及以下各层的实体编号(或者说,实例号),以及链路号等信息。MME释放S1AP链路,可以理解为是否S1AP链路信息和实体。其中,S1AP链路信息包括:S1AP层及以下各层的实体编号(或者说,实例号)。
应理解,以上列举的SCTP链路信息、S1AP链路信息的具体内容、释放SCTP链路以及释放S1AP链路的具体内容仅为示例性说明,而不应对本申请构成任何限定。
可选地,S320可以具体包括:
eNB确定SCTP链路是否正常;
eNB在确定SCTP链路正常时释放SCTP链路。
由于eNB在确定S1接口故障的时候,并不确定只是S1AP层链路故障,还是SCTP层链路故障,甚至更底层的链路故障。因此,eNB可以在重建S1链路前,确定SCTP层链路是否正常。若SCTP层链路正常,则说明从SCTP层往下的链路都是正常的,而仅仅是S1AP层链路出现异常,只要直接发起S1AP链路重建即可。若SCTP链路异常,则还需要进一步确定SCTP层链路异常的原因。
若SCTP层链路正常,则eNB可以直接发起S1链路的重建;若SCTP层链路异常,则eNB可以通过现有技术来检测并修复SCTP链路,若在修复SCTP链路后仍检测到S1接口异常,可以使用本申请实施例的通信接口故障的处理方法来重建S1AP链路。
应理解,SCTP链路故障的检测与修复可以通过现有技术中的方法来实现,而这也并非本申请的核心所在,为了简洁,这里省略对其具体过程的详细说明。
S330,eNB重建S1AP链路(即,应用层链路的一例)。
可以理解的是,eNB重建S1AP链路的过程包括了重建SCTP链路的过程,eNB重建S1AP链路的具体过程在上文中已经结合图2详细说明,为了简洁,这里不再赘述。
由此,S1接口恢复正常工作。
在本申请实施例中,eNB可以实时监测本端的S1接口,在检测到业务成功率满足预设条件时,可以执行上述方法300来修复S1接口,以便于通信快速恢复正常。
本申请实施例的通信接口故障的处理方法,通过eNB确定通过S1接口传输业务的成功率,在满足预设条件的情况下,主动发起S1链路的重建。因此,能够在MME侧出现异常的情况下,及时地检测到链路故障,并快速进行链路修复,从而提高了S1接口的自愈能力,避免了由于两端接口状态不一致造成的业务成功率下降的问题,提高了S1接口的可靠性。
情况二:
可以理解,上述方法同样适用于在eNB侧异常,MME侧正常的情况下。
图4示出了根据本申请另一实施例的通信接口故障的处理方法400的示意性流程图。在图4示出的方法400中,第一网络设备可以为MME,第二 网络设备可以为eNB,传输层链路可以为SCTP链路,应用层链路可以为S1AP链路。但应理解,这里仅为示例,而不应对本申请构成任何限定。
如图4所示,该方法400包括:
S410,MME确定通过S1接口传输的业务的成功率是否满足预设条件。
作为一个可能的实施例,该业务成功率可以通过MME端监测发出的某些消息是否得到响应来确定。例如,在MME建立承载的流程中,MME可以向eNB发送承载建立/修改请求,在链路正常的情况下,eNB可以向MME发哦送承载建立/修改响应。
可选地,S410可以具体包括:
该MME在第一预设时段内通过S1接口发送的第一消息和通过S1接口接收到的第二消息的总数量是否小于预设的第一门限。
可选地,S410可以具体包括:
该MME确定在第二预设时段内通过S1接口接收到第二消息的数量与通过S1接口发送的第一消息的数量的比值是否小于预设的第二门限。
可选地,在该MME确定在第二预设时段内通过S1接口接收到第二消息的数量与通过S1接口发送的第一消息的数量的比值小于预设的第二门限之前,该方法还包括:
该MME确定在第二预设时段内通过S1接口发送的第一消息和通过S1接口接收到的第二消息的总数量大于或等于预设的第三门限。
可选地,该第二消息为eNB基于该MME发送的第一消息回复的响应消息。
在本申请实施例中,作为示例而非限定。该第一消息可以为演进的无线接入承载(Evolved Radio Access Bearer,简称“E-RAB”)建立请求(E-RAB setup request)消息,该第二消息可以为E-RAB建立响应(E-RAB setup response)消息;或者,
该第一消息可以包括E-RAB修改请求(E-RAB modification request)消息,该第二消息可以包括E-RAB修改响应(E-RAB modification response)消息。
S420,MME在确定通过S1接口传输的业务的成功率满足预设条件时,释放SCTP链路(即,传输层链路的另一例)。
可选地,S420具体包括:
MME确定SCTP链路是否正常;
MME在确定SCTP链路正常时,释放SCTP链路。
应理解,S420的具体过程与方法300中的S320的具体过程基本相似,为了简洁,这里不再赘述。
可以理解的是,MME释放SCTP链路后,会触发eNB重建S1AP链路(即,应用层链路的另一例)。
本申请实施例的通信接口故障的处理方法,通过MME确定通过S1接口传输业务的成功率,在满足预设条件的情况下,主动发起S1链路的重建。因此,能够在eNB侧出现异常的情况下,及时地检测到链路故障,并快速触发eNB进行链路修复,从而提高了S1接口的自愈能力,避免了由于两端接口状态不一致造成的业务成功率下降的问题,提高了S1接口的可靠性。
以上,结合图3和图4详细说明了第一通信接口为S1接口的情形。以下,结合图5详细说明第一通信接口为X2接口的情形。
情况三:
图5示出了根据本申请又一实施例的通信接口故障的处理方法500的示意性流程图。在图5示出的方法500中,第一网络设备可以为第一eNB,第二网络设备可以为第二eNB,传输层链路可以为SCTP链路,应用层链路可以为X2AP链路。但应理解,这里仅为示例,而不应对本申请构成任何限定。可以理解,第一eNB和第二eNB为对等的两个实体,在第一eNB和第二eNB中的任意一端发生S1接口异常,都可以使用本申请实施例的通信接口故障的处理方法进行检测和修复。为了简洁,图5仅以第一eNB端监测到第二eNB端异常的情况为例进行说明,第二eNB端监测到第一eNB端异常的情况下,第二eNB执行的动作与图5示出的步骤相同,这里不再赘述。
如图5所示,该方法500包括:
S510,第一eNB确定通过S1接口传输的业务的成功率满足预设条件。
作为一个可能的实施例,该业务成功率可以通过第一eNB监测发出的某些消息是否得到响应来确定。例如,在UE切换由第一eNB的小区切换至第二eNB的小区场景下,第一eNB可以理解为源基站,第二eNB可以理解为目标基站,第一eNB可以向第二eNB发送切换请求,在链路正常的情况下,第二eNB可以向第一eNB发送切换请求响应。
可选地,S510可以具体包括:
该eNB在第一预设时段内通过X2接口发送的第一消息和通过X2接口接收到的第二消息的总数量小于预设的第一门限。
可选地,S510可以具体包括:该第一eNB确定在第二预设时段内通过X2接口接收到第二消息的数量与通过X2接口发送的第一消息的数量的比值小于预设的第二门限。
可选地,在该第一eNB确定在第二预设时段内通过X2接口接收到第二消息的数量与通过X2接口发送的第一消息的数量的比值小于预设的第二门限之前,该方法还包括:
该第一eNB确定在第二预设时段内通过X2接口发送的第一消息和通过X2接口接收到的第二消息的总数量大于或等于预设的第三门限。
可选地,该第二消息为第二eNB基于该第一eNB发送的第一消息回复的响应消息。
在本申请实施例中,作为示例而非限定该第一消息可以包括切换请求(Handover request)消息,该第二消息可以包括切换请求响应(Handover request acknowledge)消息。
S520,第一eNB在确定通过S1接口传输的业务的成功率满足预设条件时,释放SCTP链路(即,传输层链路的又一例)。
可选地,S520可以具体包括:
第一eNB确定SCTP链路正常;
该第一eNB在确定SCTP链路正常时,释放SCTP链路。
S530,第一eNB重建S1AP链路(即,应用层链路的又一例)。
应理解,S520、S530的具体过程与方法300中的S320、S330的具体过程基本相似,为了简洁,这里不再赘述。
本申请实施例的通信接口故障的处理方法,通过第一eNB确定通过X2接口传输业务的成功率,在满足预设条件的情况下,主动发起X2链路的重建。因此,能够在第二eNB侧出现异常的情况下,及时地检测到链路故障,并快速进行链路修复,从而提高了X2接口的自愈能力,避免了由于两端接口状态不一致造成的业务成功率下降的问题,提高了X2接口的可靠性。
需要说明的是,上文中列举的第一消息和第二消息的具体内容仅为示例性说明,而不应对本申请构成任何限定。并且,还需要注意的是,在以上示例的各种情况下,用于判断业务成功率是否满足预设条件的第一消息和第二 消息分别可以为相同的消息或者不同的消息。例如,在采集的样本中,第一消息可以为不同的消息,作为对第一消息的响应的第二消息也可以不同。
以上,结合图3至图5详细说明了根据本申请实施例的通信接口故障的处理方法。以下,结合图6和图7详细说明根据本申请实施例的通信接口故障的处理装置。
