本申请实施例涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种通信方法、装置及***。
为了能够使不同的通信***优势互补,经常将不同的通信***进行融合。例如,短距通信***,通信距离相对有限,但是终端功耗低,成本低;第五代(5th generation,5G)蜂窝网络通信***可以提供宏覆盖,通信范围广,但是终端的功耗和成本相对较高。基于此,可以通过将短距通信***与5G蜂窝网络通信***进行融合,从而使得融合后的通信***能够实现低功耗,低成本的远距离传输。
然而,一些短距通信***内的终端不支持非接入层(non access stratum,NAS)信令传输,因此,需要通过短距中的支持NAS信令传输的节点(如管理节点)接入蜂窝网络,从而间接享有5G核心网提供的服务。因此,当一个(protocol data unit,PDU)会话中包含多个不支持NAS信令的节点的数据时,如何使5G核心网感知这些节点,以及在PDU会话中这些节点进行管理(例如,策略配置),是亟需解决的技术问题。

第一方面,本申请实施例提供了一种通信方法,可以应用于第一节点。该方法包括:获取第一信息,第一信息用于指示第二节点与第一节点的映射关系;向第三节点发送第一信息,第一信息用于识别协议数据单元PDU会话中关联的第二节点。
通过该方法,本申请实施例中第一节点可以将第二节点(即不支持NAS信令传输的终端节点)与第一节点的映射关系发送至第三节点(核心网),使得核心网可以识别(即感知或管理)不支持NAS信令传输的终端节点,从而实现对不支持NAS信令传输的终端节点提供的服务的管理,以更好适用于不支持NAS信令传输的终端设备的需求。
在一种可能的设计中,第一信息用于指示第二节点与第一节点的映射关系包括:第一信息用于指示第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一IP地址之间的第一映射关系,或,第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一端口号之间的第二映射关系,或,第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一媒体访问控制MAC地址之间的第三映射关系,或,第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一标识之间的映射关系。

在实施方式一,第一节点通过和第二节点的交互信息,获取第一信息,使得第一信息可以及时更新,从而更好地适配于第二节点的需求。
实施方式二、第一节点已预先管理或维护第二节点关联的PDU会话,第一节点可以直接基于该PDU会话和第二节点的标识,获取第一信息。其中,“第一节点可以直接基于该PDU会话和第二节点的标识,获取第一信息”对应示例与实施方式一类似,请参见前文的相关描述,这里不再赘述。
在实施方式二,第一节点获取第一信息的效率较高。
S302、第一节点向第三节点发送第一信息。相应的,第三节点接收第一信息。
在一种可能的实施方式中,第一信息承载于非接入层NAS消息。也就是说,第一节点可以通过NAS消息向第三节点发送第一信息。其中,NAS消息为PDU会话建立流程、PDU会话修改流程和注册流程中的NAS消息中的任一种。示例性的,NAS消息可以包括但不限于注册请求消息、接入会话请求消息、PDU会话建立请求消息和PDU会话修改请求消息、PDU会话更新信息中的任一种,本申请实施例不作具体的限定。
例如,当第一信息用于指示第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一IP地址之间的第一映射关系,或者第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一端口号之间的第二映射关系时,第一信息可以承载于PDU会话更新信息中。又例如,当第一信息用于指示第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一MAC地址之间的第三映射关系,或者第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一标识之间的映射关系时,第一信息可以承载于第一节点注册成功后的任意NAS信息中。

方式1、第三节点可以直接基于第一信息指示的映射关系,识别PDU会话中关联的第二节点。例如,第三节点可以基于上述第一映射关系,识别PDU会话中关联的第二节点。又例如,第三节点可以基于上述第二映射关系,识别PDU会话中关联的第二节点。又例如,第三节点可以基于上述第三映射关系,识别PDU会话中关联的第二节点。
图4示出了本申请实施例提供的第一种通信方法适用的用户面协议架构,在图4中,第三节点以UPF为例。
其中,用户面协议架构从上之下依次包括业务数据适配协议(service data adaptation protocol,SDAP)层、分组数据汇聚层协议(packet data convergence protocol,PDCP)层、无线链路控制(Radio link control,RLC)层、媒体接入控制(medium access control,MAC)层、物理(physical layer,PHY)层等。其中,PDU layer(层)用于承载PDU会话的IP数据包。
其中,N9stack为N9协议栈及N9接口为5G核心网网元之间的接口。用户数据报协议(user datagram protocol,UDP)/网际互连协议(internet protocol,IP)为数据传输协议,UDP标识数据传输为非可靠传输(区别于TCP连接,TCP为可靠传输),IP为提供了数据传输的寻址方式,基于IP进行数据路由寻址。用户平面的GPRS隧道协议(GPRS tunnelling protocol–user,GTP-U),提供了数据的封包方式,GTP-U帧结构里可以携带隧道信息、消息类型、序列号等。L1层指的是物理层,计算机网络模型中最低的一层,为传输数据所需要的物理链路创建、维持、拆除,而提供具有机械的,电子的,功能的和规范的特性。简 单的说,物理层确保原始的数据可在各种物理媒体上传输。L2层指的是数据链路层,是计算机网络模型参考模型中的第二层,介乎于物理层和网络层之间。数据链路层在物理层提供的服务的基础上向网络层提供服务,其最基本的服务是将源自网络层来的数据可靠地传输到相邻节点的目标机网络层。L1和L2可以用于链路层数据的收发处理。中继(Relay)可以对接收到的信息进行中转。
其中,第一节点和第二节点之间可以通过通信链路(sparkLinkL2)协议进行通信。第一节点可以通过SDAP层、PDCP层、RLC层、MAC层以及物理层和NG-RAN通信,NG-RAN和UPF(第三节点)之间通过UDP/IP、GTP-U、L2、L1进行通信。其中,NG-RAN和UPF(第三节点)还可以通过Relay对收发进行中转。从而第二节点可以通过第一节点间接地获取第三节点通过的服务。
一种情况中,若第一节点为第二节点分配了第一节点的公网IP地址,第一节点可以在PDU Layer的数据包中封装第一节点的公网IP地址,从而UPF接收到对应的IP数据包之后可以根据IP数据包中第一节点的公网IP地址和上述第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一IP地址之间的第一映射关系,识别PDU会话中关联的第二节点。
示例1,请参见图5A,第二节点以T节点1、T节点2和T节点3为例,UPF与第一节点之间存在可以建立多个PDU会话,例如可以存在PDU会话1和PDU会话2。其中,PDU会话1用于传输T节点1和T节点2的数据,PDU会话2用于传输T节点3的数据,即PDU会话1关联T节点1和T节点2,以及PDU会话2关联T节点3。其中,PDU会话1包括第一节点的IP地址:IP1和IP2,PDU会话2包括第一节点的IP地址:IP3,第一节点将IP1分配给T节点1、第一节点将IP2分配给T节点2、以及第一节点将IP3分配给T节点3。
例如,UPF接收到PDU会话1的IP数据包中第一节点的公网IP地址为IP1,则可以根据第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一IP地址之间的第一映射关系,确定PDU会话1关联的第二节点为T节点1。又例如,UPF接收到PDU会话1的IP数据包中第一节点的公网IP地址为IP2,则可以根据第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一IP地址之间的第一映射关系,确定PDU会话1关联的第二节点为T节点2。又例如,UPF接收到PDU会话2的IP数据包中第一节点的公网IP地址为IP3,则可以根据第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一IP地址之间的第一映射关系,确定PDU会话2关联的第二节点为T节点3。
另一种情况中,若第一节点为第二节点分配了第一节点的端口号,第一节点可以在PDU Layer的数据包中封装第一节点的端口号,从而UPF接收到IP数据包之后可以根据IP数据包中第一节点的端口号和上述第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一端口号之间的第二映射关系,识别PDU会话中关联的第二节点。
示例2,请参见图5B,第二节点以T节点1、T节点2和T节点3为例,UPF与第一节点之间存在可以建立多个会话,例如可以存在PDU会话1和PDU会话2。其中,PDU会话1用于传输T节点1和T节点2的数据,PDU会话2用于传输T节点3的数据,即PDU会话1关联T节点1和T节点2,以及PDU会话2关联T节点3。其中,PDU会话1和PDU会话2包括第一节点的同一IP地址IP1,PDU会话1包括第一节点的端口号:P1和P2,PDU会话2包括第一节点的端口号P3,第一节点将P1分配给T节点1、第一节点将P2分配给T节点2、以及第一节点将P3分配给T节点3。
例如,UPF接收到PDU会话1的IP数据包中第一节点的端口号为P1,则可以根据第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一端口号之间的第二映射关系,确定PDU会话1关联的第二节点 为T节点1。又例如,UPF接收到PDU会话1的IP数据包中第一节点的端口号为P2,则可以根据第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一端口号之间的第二映射关系,确定PDU会话1关联的第二节点为T节点2。又例如,UPF接收到PDU会话2的IP数据包中第一节点的端口号为P3,则可以根据第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一端口号之间的第二映射关系,确定PDU会话2关联的第二节点为T节点3。
另一种情况中,若第一节点为第二节点分配了第一节点的MAC地址,第一节点可以在PDU Layer的数据包中封装第一节点的MAC地址,从而UPF接收到IP数据包之后可以根据IP数据包中第一节点的MAC地址和上述第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一MAC地址之间的第三映射关系,识别PDU会话中关联的第二节点。
示例3,请参见图5C,第二节点以T节点1、T节点2和T节点3为例,UPF与第一节点之间存在可以建立多个会话,例如可以存在PDU会话1和PDU会话2。其中,PDU会话1用于传输T节点1和T节点2的数据,PDU会话2用于传输T节点3的数据,即PDU会话1关联T节点1和T节点2,以及PDU会话2关联T节点3。其中,PDU会话1和PDU会话2包括第一节点的同一IP地址IP1,第一节点根据自身的唯一MAC地址衍生的临时MAC地址有:MAC地址A、MAC地址B和MAC地址C,第一节点将MAC地址A分配给T节点1、第一节点将MAC地址B分配给T节点2、以及第一节点将MAC地址C分配给T节点3。相应的,PDU会话1用于传输T节点1和T节点2的数据,PDU会话2用于传输T节点3的数据,即PDU会话1关联T节点1和T节点2,以及PDU会话2关联T节点3。
例如,UPF接收到PDU会话1的IP数据包中第一节点的MAC地址为A,则可以根据第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一MAC地址之间的第三映射关系,确定PDU会话1关联的第二节点为T节点1。又例如,UPF接收到PDU会话1的IP数据包中第一节点的MAC地址为B,则可以根据第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一MAC地址之间的第三映射关系,确定PDU会话1关联的第二节点为T节点2。又例如,UPF接收到PDU会话2的IP数据包中第一节点的端口号为C,则可以根据第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一MAC地址之间的第三映射关系,确定PDU会话2关联的第二节点为T节点3。
另一种情况中,若第一节点为第二节点分配了第一节点的临时标识,第一节点可以在PDU Layer的数据包中封装第一节点的标识,从而UPF接收到IP数据包之后可以根据IP数据包中第一节点的标识和上述第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一标识之间的映射关系,识别PDU会话中关联的第二节点。
示例4,请参见图5D,第二节点以T节点1、T节点2和T节点3为例,UPF与第一节点之间存在可以建立多个会话,例如可以存在PDU会话1和PDU会话2。其中,PDU会话1用于传输T节点1和T节点2的数据,PDU会话2用于传输T节点3的数据,即PDU会话1关联T节点1和T节点2,以及PDU会话2关联T节点3。其中,PDU会话1和PDU会话2包括第一节点的同一IP地址IP1,第一节点有临时标识:01、02和03,第一节点将临时标识01分配给T节点1、第一节点将临时标识02分配给T节点2、以及第一节点将临时标识03分配给T节点3。
例如,UPF接收到PDU会话1的IP数据包中第一节点的临时标识为01,则可以根据第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一标识之间的映射关系,确定PDU会话1关联的第二节点为T节点1。又例如,UPF接收到PDU会话1的IP数据包中第一节点的临时标识为02,则可以根据第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一标识之间的映射关系,确定PDU会话1关联的第二节点为T节点2。又例如,UPF接收到PDU会话2的IP数据包中第一节点的临时标识为03,则可以 根据第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一标识之间的映射关系,确定PDU会话2关联的第二节点为T节点3。
在方式1,第三节点识别第二节点的效率较高。
方式2、第一节点为第二节点分配PDU会话时(例如,在PDU会话建立或PDU会话修改过程中),还为第二节点配置了包过滤器packetfilter(s)(也可以称为过滤策略),使得在PDU会话中第二节点关联包过滤器,该包过滤器可以用于筛选或确定PDU会话中第二节点对应的QoS流,该QoS流用于传输与第二节点关联的数据;从而第三节点可以基于包过滤器和上述第一节点与第二节点之间的映射关系,识别PDU会话中关联的第二节点。
示例性的,请参见图5E,PDU会话中第二节点对应的QoS流以QoS流1和QoS流2为例,第一节点将其为第二节点配置的包过滤器发送至第三节点,第三节点可以根据该包过滤器筛选出QoS流1和QoS流2,进而第三节点确定将第二节点对应的业务流放入QoS流1和QoS流2传输。
此外,若该包过滤器中包括第一节点的公网IP地址,则第三节点可以基于包过滤器中的第一节点的公网IP地址和上述第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一IP地址之间的第一映射关系,识别PDU会话中关联的第二节点;若该包过滤器中包括第一节点的端口号(port),则第三节点可以基于包过滤器中的第一节点的端口号(port)和上述第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一端口号之间的第二映射关系,识别PDU会话中关联的第二节点;若该包过滤器中包括第一节点的MAC地址,则第三节点可以基于包过滤器中的第一节点的MAC地址和上述第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一MAC地址之间的第三映射关系,识别PDU会话中关联的第二节点。若该包过滤器中包括第一节点的临时标识,则第三节点可以基于包过滤器中的第一节点的临时标识和上述第二节点的标识与第一节点的第一标识之间的映射关系,识别PDU会话中关联的第二节点。
在方式2,由于第三节点可以基于包过滤器和上述第一节点与第二节点之间的映射关系,识别PDU会话中关联的第二节点,有效提升第三节点识别第二节点的准确性。
在图3所示的实施例中,第一节点可以将第二节点与第一节点的映射关系发送至核心网,使得第三节点可以识别(即感知或管理)第二节点,从而实现对第二节点提供的服务的管理,以更好适用于第二节点的需求。
需要说明的是,第三节点和第一节点已维护或管理第二节点与第一节点之间的映射关系,则在第二节点需要向第三节点上报的控制信息中携带第二节点的标识,第三节点也可以基于该映射关系和第二节点的标识,识别第二节点关联的数据,从而便于第三节点对第二节点的配置信息(例如,QoS流相关参数)进行相应的调整。
图6示出了本申请实施例提供的第一种通信方法适用的控制面协议架构,在图6中,第三节点以AMF为例。其中,控制面协议架构从上之下依次包括无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)层,PDCP层、RLC层、MAC层、PHY层等。其中,N2stack为N2协议栈及N2接口为5G核心网网元和NG-RAN之间的接口。
其中,第一节点和第二节点之间可以通过通信链路(sparkLinkL2)协议、数据直传应用部分(direct transfer application part,DTAP)协议和5G融合中的任一个进行通信。
第一节点可以通过RRC层、PDCP层、RLC层、MAC层以及物理层和NG-RAN通信,NG-RAN和AMF(第三节点)之间通过N2stack接口进行通信。从而第二节点可以通过第一节点间接地获取第三节点通过的服务。
由于第二节点不支持NAS信令,第一节点和AMF支持NAS信令。因此,第二节点可以将其要上报AMF的控制信息发送至第一节点,第一节点通过NAS信息将该控制信息和第二节点的标识同时发送至AMF,从而AMF可以基于第二节点的标识和第二节点与第一节点之间的映射关系,识别第二节点关联的数据(例如QoS流)。
为了便于理解,图7A还提供了相应的场景示意图,在图7A中,第二节点以T节点1-T节点N为例,第一节点可以将T节点标识及其对应的控制信息同时发送至AMF,进而AMF可以基于上述第二节点的标识与第一节点之间的映射关系、和第二节点的标识,识别第二节点关联的数据。
下面结合具体的附图,对第三节点识别控制信息关联的第二节点的流程进行详细的说明。

以上介绍第三节点如何识别第二节点的通信方法,下面结合具体的附图介绍第四节点识别第二节点的通信方法。
请参见图9,图9示出了本申请实施例提供第二种通信方法,该方法的执行主体为第一节点和第四节点,该方法包括:
S901、第一节点可以获取第二节点的标识与第二节点的IP地址之间的第四映射关系。
示例性的,表5示出了第四映射关系的一种示例,在表5中,第二节点以T节点1、T节点2和T节点3为例,T节点1对应私有IP地址为IP4、T节点2对应私有IP地址为IP5以及T节点3对应私有IP地址为IP6,则第一节点可以建立如表1所示的映射关系。
表5
第二节点标识 | 第二节点的私有IP地址 |
T节点1的标识 | IP4 |
T节点2的标识 | IP5 |
T节点3的标识 | IP6 |
S902、第一节点向第四节点发送第四映射关系。相应的,第四节点接收第四映射关系。
S903、第四节点基于第四映射关系,确定第二节点。
示例性的,第四节点接收到第二节点的数据包,可以根据第二节点的数据包中携带的私有IP地址和第四映射关系,识别出第二节点。
通过该方法,第四节点可以基于第二节点的标识与第二节点的IP地址之间的第四映射关系以及第二节点的IP地址,确定第二节点,使得第四节点可以识别(即感知或管理)第 二节点,从而可以更好地为第二节点提供服务。
在一些可能的实施例中,第三节点在PDU会话中仅为第一节点分配了一个公网IP地址,第一节点可以为对其管理的第二节点分配私有IP地址,从而第一节点可以建立第二节点的标识与第二节点的私有IP地址之间的第五映射关系,并发送至第三节点。第三节点维护或管理该PDU会话与第一节点的公网IP地址之间的第一对应关系,以及维护或管理第一节点的公网IP地址与第二节点的私有IP地址之间的第二对应关系,从而第三节点接收到第五映射关系之后,可以基于第一对应关系、第一对应关系和第五映射关系,维护PDU会话标识与二节点的私有IP地址之间的第三对应关系。因此第三节点收到PDU会话关联的包过滤器时,可以根据包过滤器中携带第二节点的私有IP地址和第三对应关系,识别出第二节点。
示例性的,请参见图10,PDU会话中第二节点(即T节点)对应的QoS流以QoS流1和QoS流2为例,第一节点将其为T节点配置的包过滤器发送至第三节点,且包过滤器中可以携带了T节点的私有IP地址IP(T),从而第三节点可以根据该包过滤器筛选出T节点对应的QoS流1和QoS流2,第三节点可以将T节点对应的业务流放入QoS流1和QoS流2传输。
示例性的,在表6中,第二节点以T节点1、T节点2和T节点3为例,T节点1对应私有IP地址为IP7、T节点2对应私有IP地址为IP8以及T节点3对应私有IP地址为IP9,私有IP地址为IP7、IP8和IP9,均关联第一节点的公网IP地址IP1,而公网IP地址IP1关联PDU会话1。例如,第三节点收到PDU会话1关联的过滤数据包中携带的二节点的私有IP地址为IP7,第三节点可以识别出第二节点为T节点1。又例如,第三节点收到PDU会话1关联的过滤数据包中携带的二节点的私有IP地址为IP8,第三节点可以识别出第二节点为T节点2。又例如,第三节点收到PDU会话1关联的过滤数据包中携带的二节点的私有IP地址为IP9,第三节点可以识别出第二节点为T节点3。
