请参考图2,其示出了本申请实施例提供的5GS(5th Generation System,第五代移动通 信***)的***架构的示意图。如图2所示,该***架构200可以包括:UE(也即上文介绍的“终端设备”)、(R)AN((Radio)Access Network,(无线)接入网)、Core(核心网)和DN(Data Network,数据网络)。其中,UE、(R)AN、Core(核心网)是构成架构的主要成分,逻辑上它们可以分为用户面和控制面两部分,控制面负责移动网络的管理,用户面负责业务数据的传输。图2中,NG2参考点位于(R)AN控制面和Core控制面之间,NG3参考点位于(R)AN用户面和Core用户面之间,NG6参考点位于Core用户面和数据网络之间。
UE:是移动用户与网络交互的入口,能够提供基本的计算能力、存储能力,向用户显示业务窗口,接收用户操作输入。UE会采用下一代空口技术,与(R)AN建立信号连接、数据连接,从而传输控制信号和业务数据到移动网络。
(R)AN:类似于传统网络里面的基站,部署在靠近UE的位置,为特定区域的授权用户提供入网功能,并能够根据用户的级别,业务的需求等使用不同质量的传输隧道传输用户数据。(R)AN能够管理自身的资源,合理利用,按需为UE提供接入服务,把控制信号和用户数据在UE和核心网之间转发。
Core:负责维护移动网络的签约数据,管理移动网络的网元,为UE提供会话管理、移动性管理、策略管理、安全认证等功能。在UE附着的时候,为UE提供入网认证;在UE有业务请求时,为UE分配网络资源;在UE移动的时候,为UE更新网络资源;在UE空闲的时候,为UE提供快恢复机制:在UE去附着的时候,为UE释放网络资源;在UE有业务数据时,为UE提供数据路由功能,如转发上行数据到DN:或者从DN接收UE下行数据,转发到(R)AN,从而发送给UE。
DN:是为用户提供业务服务的数据网络,一般客户端位于UE,服务端位于数据网络。数据网络可以是私有网络,如局域网,也可以是不受运营商管控的外部网络,如Internet,还可以是运营商共同部署的专有网络,如为了配置IMS(IP Multimedia Core Network Subsystem,IP多媒体网络子***)服务。
图3是在图2的基础上确定的详细架构,其中核心网用户面包括UPF(User Plane Function,用户面功能);核心网控制面包括AUSF(Authentication Server Function,认证服务器功能)、AMF、SMF、NSSF(Network Slice Selection Function,网络切片选择功能)、NEF(Network Exposure Function,网络开放功能)、NRF(Network Repository Function,网络存储功能)、UDM(Unified Data Management,统一数据管理)、PCF(Policy Control Function,策略控制功能)、AF(Application Function,应用功能)。
在图3所示架构中,UE通过Uu口与(R)AN进行AS(Access Stratum,接入层)连接,交互AS消息及无线数据传输,UE通过N1口与AMF进行NAS(Non Access Stratum,非接入层)连接,交互NAS消息。AMF是核心网中的移动性管理功能,SMF是核心网中的会话管理功能,AMF在对UE进行移动性管理之外,还负责将会话管理相关消息在UE和SMF之间的转发。PCF是核心网中的策略管理功能,负责制定对UE的移动性管理、会话管理、计费等相关的策略。UPF是核心网中的用户面功能,通过N6接口与外部数据网络进行数据传输,通过N3接口与(R)AN进行数据传输。
需要说明的是,图2、图3中的各个网元之间的接口名称只是一个示例,具体实现中接口的名称可能为其他的名称,本申请实施例对此不作具体限定。图2和图3中包括的各个网元(比如SMF、AF、UPF等)的名称也仅是一个示例,对网元本身的功能不构成限定。在5GS以及未来其它的网络中,上述各个网元也可以是其他的名称,本申请实施例对此不作具体限定。例如,在6G网络中,上述各个网元中的部分或全部可以沿用5G中的术语,也可能采用其他名称,等等,在此进行统一说明,以下不再赘述。此外,应理解,上述各个网元之间的所传输的消息(或信令)的名称也仅仅是一个示例,对消息本身的功能不构成任何限定。
在一些实施例中,与策略相关的网元主要是PCF、AMF、SMF、RAN、UE。其中SMF主要是负责与会话相关的策略的执行,AMF主要负责与接入和UE策略相关的策略执行,两 个网元(AMF和SMF)上的策略下发、更新全都由PCF来管控。
具体到UE策略,PCF与UE之间通过Container(容器)来监护UE策略相关的信息,包括UE策略的内容、UE策略标识等。所述的Container在上行方向上由UE通过NAS消息发送给AMF,并由AMF继续透传(不感知或不修改)给PCF,下行方向与之相反,由PCF将Container发给AMF,AMF进而通过NAS消息透传给UE。

感知业务对应的感知分析结果,是指对感知业务对应的感知数据,进行分析得到的结果。针对不同的感知业务,相应的感知分析结果也有所不同。示例性地,感知分析结果可以是某个区域的人流/车流量、终端设备进入某个区域的事件、某个区域中的终端数量、某个区域中的终端位置等等,本申请对此不作限定。
目标设备是指需要获取感知业务对应的感知数据和/或感知分析结果的设备。在一些实施例中,目标设备包括以下至少之一:终端设备、接入网设备、应用功能网元。其中,应用功能网元可以是运营商网络外部的应用功能网元,可以理解为不是运营商部署的应用功能网元,也即第三方应用功能网元;或者,应用功能网元也可以是运营商网络内部的应用功能网元,可以理解为是运营商部署的应用功能网元。可选地,目标设备如果获取到感知业务对应的感知数据,则目标设备可以自行或者通过其他设备对该感知数据进行处理,得到相应的感知分析结果。
另外,针对不同的应用场景和不同的目标设备,目标设备接收到感知数据和/或感知分析结果之后的处理也会有所不同。例如,如果感知分析结果是对摄像头采集到的图像数据进行分析,确定有人进入或者离开某一特定区域之后,接入网设备可以开启或关闭,或者提升或减弱该区域的无线信号的覆盖。又例如,运营商也可以利用一些感知设备(可以是运营商自己部署的,也可以不是运营商自己部署的),向运营商网络外部的应用功能网元提供感知服务,或者服务于运营商网络自己的通信,本申请对此不作限定。
在一些实施例中,如图5所示,上述步骤410之后还包括如下步骤412:

在一些实施例中,感知应用服务器根据感知指令,控制至少一个感知设备执行与感知业务相关的感知操作;感知应用服务器从感知设备获取感知操作得到的与感知业务相关的感知数据;感知应用服务器向感知网元和/或第一地址,发送与感知业务相关的感知数据。
在一些实施例中,感知应用服务器根据感知指令,控制至少一个感知设备执行与感知业务相关的感知操作,并触发感知设备将感知操作得到的与感知业务相关的感知数据,发送给感知网元和/或第一地址。在此实现方式中,感知应用服务器并不需要从感知设备收集感知数据,而是由感知设备直接将采集到的感知数据发送给感知网元和/或第一地址。可选地,感知应用服务器可以将感知网元的地址和/或第一地址发送给执行感知业务的感知设备,感知设备在采集到感知数据之后,直接将感知数据发送给感知网元和/或第一地址,而不需要感知应用服务器进行中转转发,有助于降低感知应用服务器的处理开销。
在一些实施例中,感知应用服务器还可以接收感知网元发送的上述第一地址。例如,感知网元向感知应用服务器发送的感知指令中,携带该第一地址;或者,该第一地址也可以不携带于感知指令中独立发送,本申请对此不作限定。
