发明内容
本申请提供了一种小区切换方法以及装置,用于提高网络性能。
本申请第一方面提供了一种小区切换方法,该方法包括:当终端设备满足小区切换条件时,第一接入网设备确定第二接入网设备,第二接入网设备为在预设范围内切换优先级最高的接入网设备,终端设备与第一接入网设备连接,且终端设备存在用户面完整性保护UPIP功能的承载;第一接入网设备判断第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能;当第二接入网设备不支持UPIP功能时,第一接入网设备确定第三接入网设备,第三接入网设备的切换优先级低于第二接入网设备;第一接入网设备判断第三接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能;当第三接入网设备支持UPIP功能时,第一接入网设备将终端设备切换至第三接入网设备。
上述方面中,第一接入网设备确定有UPIP功能的承载的终端设备需要切换小区时,在确定预设范围内信号切换优先级最高的第二接入网设备时,先确定该第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能,当该第二接入网设备不支持UPIP功能时,重新选择在所述预设范围内支持UPIP功能的接入网设备中优先级低于该第二接入网设备的第三接入网设备作为切换目标,再将终端设备切换到该第三接入网设备。由于第三接入网设备支持UPIP功能,可以识别协议信元,且该第三接入网设备的信号质量高于第一接入网设备,则可以提高网络性能。
一种可能的实施方式中,上述步骤第一接入网设备判断第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能包括:第一接入网设备从本地数据获取第二接入网设备的协议版本;第一接入网设备判断第二接入网设备的协议版本是否支持UPIP功能;当第二接入网设备的协议版本支持UPIP功能时,第一接入网设备确定第二接入网设备支持UPIP功能;当第二接入网设备的协议版本不支持UPIP功能时,第一接入网设备确定第二接入网设备不支持UPIP功能。
上述可能的实施方式中,第二接入网设备在建立时就通过X2接口与第一接入网设备进行数据交换,即第一接入网设备的本地数据中已经存储了该第二接入网设备的协议版本,则当需要判断第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能时,第一接入网络设备可以从本地数据中获取该第二接入网设备的协议版本,再判断该第二接入网设备的协议版本是否支持UPIP功能,即当第二接入网设备的协议版本支持UPIP功能时,该第二接入网设备支持UPIP功能,当第二接入网设备的协议版本不支持UPIP功能时,该第二接入
网设备不支持UPIP功能。直接从本地数据确定第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能,提高小区切换效率。
一种可能的实施方式中,在第一接入网设备将终端设备切换至第三接入网设备之前,该方法还包括:第一接入网设备向第三接入网设备发送切换请求,切换请求包括UPIP功能的承载的上下文信息;第一接入网设备接收来自第三接入网设备的切换响应,切换响应为第三接入网设备根据上下文信息确定的;当切换响应为同意切换时,触发第一接入网设备将终端设备切换至第三接入网设备的步骤。
上述可能的实施方式中,第一接入网设备在确定将终端设备切换至第三接入网设备后,还需要向该第三接入网设备确定是否可以切换,即向该第三接入网设备发送有UPIP功能的承载的上下文信息的切换请求,第三接入网设备可以根据该上下文信息确定该终端设备是否可以接入,然后向第一接入网设备反馈切换响应。当该切换响应指示第三接入网设备同意切换时,第一接入网设备才可以将终端设备切换到该第三接入网设备,提高方案的可行性。
一种可能的实施方式中,上述步骤第一接入网设备判断第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能包括:第一接入网设备向核心网设备发送第一切换请求,指示终端设备切换到第二接入网设备;第一接入网设备接收来自核心网设备的第一切换命令;第一接入网设备判断第一切换命令是否包括安全结果信元;当第一切换命令不包括安全结果信元时,第一接入网设备确定第二接入网设备不支持UPIP功能;当第一切换命令包括安全结果信元时,第一接入网设备确定第二接入网设备支持UPIP功能。
上述可能的实施方式中,第一接入网设备无法通过X2接口与第二接入网设备交互,需要通过核心网设备判断该第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能。第一接入网设备可以向核心网设备发送第一切换请求,通知核心网设备需要将该终端设备切换到该第二接入网设备。核心网设备在收到该第一切换请求后,可以向第二接入网设备发送切换请求,并接收来自第二接入网设备反馈的切换请求响应,然后核心网设备再向第一接入网设备反馈第一切换命令,其中,当第二接入网设备不支持UPIP功能时,该第一切换命令中不携带安全结果信元,当第二接入网设备支持UPIP功能时,该第一切换命令中携带了该安全结果信元,即第一接入网设备可以根据该第一切换命令是否携带安全结果信元来确定该第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能。当X2接口不可用时通过S1接口确定第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能,提高方案的灵活性。
一种可能的实施方式中,在第一接入网设备判断第三接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能之后,该方法还包括:当第三接入网设备不支持UPIP功能时,第一接入网设备确定第四接入网设备,第四接入网设备的切换优先级低于第三接入网设备;第一接入网设备向核心网设备发送第二切换请求,指示终端设备切换到第四接入网设备;第一接入网设备接收来自核心网设备的第二切换命令;第一接入网设备判断第二切换命令是否包括安全结果信元;当第二切换命令包括安全结果信元时,第一接入网设备确定第四接入网设备支持UPIP功能;第一接入网设备将终端设备切换至第四接入网设备。
上述可能的实施方式中,当第三接入网设备依旧不支持UPIP功能时,第一接入网设备还可以向核心网设备发送第二切换请求,通知核心网该终端设备预计切换到第四接入网设备。核心网设备在收到该第一切换请求后,可以向该第四接入网设备发送切换请求,并接收来自第四接入网设备反馈的切换请求响应,然后核心网设备再向第一接入网设备反馈第二切换命令,在该第二切换命令携带该安全结果信元时,才确定该第四接入网设备为最终要切换的终端设备,避免接入网设备不支持UPIP功能影响用户体验。
一种可能的实施方式中,该方法还包括:当第二切换命令不包括安全结果信元时,第一接入网设备确定第四接入网设备不支持UPIP功能;第一接入网设备按照切换优先级降序选取新的接入网设备向核心网设备请求切换。
上述可能的实施方式中,如果该第二切换命令仍然不携带该安全结果信元,则第一接入网设备按照切换优先级从高到低依次选择新的接入网设备作为预计的切换目标给核心网设备。多次判断,提高确定支持UPIP功能的接入网设备的目标的概率,提高用户通话体验。

户面完保策略(required,prefer,not need),其中包括强制要求执行的required策略。用户设备存在以required策略生效UPIP功能的承载时,源基站在确定信号质量最优的目标基站后,直接向该目标基站进行切换。但是,当目标基站不支持UPIP功能时,该目标基站无法识别协议信元,会导致切换失败,影响网络性能。
为解决上述问题,本申请实施例提供了一种小区切换方法,该方法如下所述。
请参阅图2,如图2所示为本申请实施例提供的一种小区切换方法的流程示意图,该方法包括:
步骤201.当终端设备满足小区切换条件时,第一接入网设备确定第二接入网设备,第二接入网设备为在预设范围内切换优先级最高的接入网设备,终端设备与第一接入网设备连接,且终端设备存在用户UPIP功能的承载。
本实施例中,第一接入网设备在收到终端设备发送的测量结果后,可以对在预设范围内的邻区确定切换优先级列表,该切换优先级列表包括各个切换优先级的小区,即切换优先级越高的小区可以为终端设备提供更好的用户体验。当第一接入网设备连接的终端设备满足小区切换条件,即存在切换优先级列表时,为了给用户提供最好的服务,可以选择切换优先级最高的接入网设备(如第二接入网设备)作为目标接入网络设备。本申请实施例中的终端设备存在required策略的承载,即使用了UPIP功能。
步骤202.第一接入网设备判断第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能。
本实施例中,由于该终端设备有使用UPIP功能的承载,因此切换的目标接入网设备也需要支持UPIP功能,即第一接入网设备在确定切换之前还需要确定该第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能,以满足该使用UPIP功能的承载的正常使用。
其中,由于第一接入网设备与第二接入网设备之间可以通过X2接口连接,则本申请实施例的小区切换为X2切换,假设第一接入网络设备或第二接入网设备的X2接口不可用,或者X2切换失败,则可以使用S1接口进行切换,即本申请实施例的小区切换为S1切换。
对于X2切换场景,第二接入网设备在建立时就通过X2接口与第一接入网设备进行数据交换,即第一接入网设备的本地数据中已经存储了该第二接入网设备的协议版本,则当需要判断第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能时,第一接入网络设备可以从本地数据中获取该第二接入网设备的协议版本,再判断该第二接入网设备的协议版本是否支持UPIP功能,即当第二接入网设备的协议版本支持UPIP功能时,该第二接入网设备支持UPIP功能,当第二接入网设备的协议版本不支持UPIP功能时,该第二接入网设备不支持UPIP功能。
相应的,对于第三接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能,第一接入网设备也同样可以从本地数据中获取该第三接入网设备的协议版本,再确定该第三接入网设备的协议版本是否支持UPIP功能。
对于S1切换场景,第一接入网设备无法通过X2接口与第二接入网设备交互,需要通过核心网设备判断该第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能。第一接入网设备可以向核心网设备发送第一切换请求,通知核心网设备需要将该终端设备切换到该第二接入网设备。核心网设备在收到该第一切换请求后,可以向第二接入网设备发送切换请求,并接收来自第二接入网设备反馈的切换请求响应,然后核心网设备再向第一接入网设备反馈第一切换命令,其中,当第二接入网设备不支持UPIP功能时,该第一切换命令中不携带安全结果(security result)信元,当第二接入网设备支持UPIP功能时,该第一切换命令中携带了该安全结果信元,即第一接入网设备可以根据该第一切换命令是否携带安全结果信元来确定该第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能。
相应的,对于第三接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能,第一接入网设备也同样可以向核心网设备发送请求切换到第三接入网设备的切换请求,再确定核心网反馈的切换命令中是否携带安全结果信元,来判断第三接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能。
当第三接入网设备依旧不支持UPIP功能时,第一接入网设备还可以向核心网设备发送第二切换请求,通知核心网该终端设备预计切换到第四接入网设备。核心网设备在收到该第一切换请求后,可以向该第四接入网设备发送切换请求,并接收来自第四接入网设备反馈的切换请求响应,然后核心网设备再向第一接入网设备反馈第二切换命令,在该第二切换命令携带该安全结果信元时,才确定该第四接入网设备为最终要切换的终端设备。
如果该第二切换命令仍然不携带该安全结果信元,则第一接入网设备按照切换优先级从高到低依次
选择新的接入网设备作为预计的切换目标给核心网设备。
步骤203.当第二接入网设备不支持UPIP功能时,第一接入网设备确定第三接入网设备,第三接入网设备的切换优先级低于第二接入网设备。
本实施例中,如果确定该第二接入网设备的协议版本不支持UPIP功能,则需要重新选择接入网设备作为切换目标,第一接入网络设备可以从该切换优先级列表中选择次优的接入网络设备,即选择切换优先级低于第二接入网设备的第三接入网设备作为切换目标。
步骤204.第一接入网设备判断第三接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能。
本实施例中,相应的,在选择第三接入网设备之后,需要继续确定该第三接入网设备能否支持该终端设备的UPIP承载,即是否支持UPIP功能。
步骤205.当第三接入网设备支持UPIP功能时,第一接入网设备将终端设备切换至第三接入网设备。
本实施例中,如果确定该第三接入网设备支持UPIP功能,则第一接入网设备可以确定可以将该终端设备切换到该第三接入网设备,第一接入网设备可以向终端设备发送无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)连接重新配置(connection reconfiguration)消息,以通知该终端设备切换到第三接入网设备。
第一接入网设备在确定将终端设备切换至第三接入网设备后,还需要向该第三接入网设备确定是否可以切换,即向该第三接入网设备发送有UPIP功能的承载的上下文信息的切换请求,第三接入网设备可以根据该上下文信息确定该终端设备是否可以接入,然后向第一接入网设备反馈切换响应,当该切换响应指示第三接入网设备同意切换时,第一接入网设备才可以将终端设备切换到该第三接入网设备。
对于X2切换场景,本申请实施例的处理流程可以如图3所示,步骤301.当确定终端设备满足小区切换条件时,第一接入网设备确定第二接入网设备;步骤302.第一接入网设备根据本地数据中第二接入网设备的协议版本,判断第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能;步骤303.当第二接入网设备不支持UPIP功能时,第一接入网设备确定第三接入网设备;步骤304.第一接入网设备判断第三接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能;步骤305.当第三接入网设备支持UPIP功能时,第一接入网设备向第三接入网设备发送切换请求;步骤306.第三接入网设备向第一接入网设备反馈切换请求响应;步骤307.当该切换请求响应为同意切换时,第一接入网设备向终端设备发送对第三接入网设备的RRC连接重新配置消息。后续的流程可参考3GPP 36.423中针对X2切换的处理流程。
对于S1切换场景,本申请实施例的处理流程可以如图4所示,步骤401.当确定终端设备满足小区切换条件时,第一接入网设备确定第二接入网设备;步骤402.第一接入网设备向核心网设备发送对第二接入网设备的第一切换请求;步骤403.核心网设备向第二接入网设备发送第三切换请求;步骤404.第二接入网设备向核心网设备发送第三切换请求响应;步骤405.核心网设备根据第三切换请求响应向第一接入网设备发送第一切换命令;步骤406.当第一切换命令不包括安全结果信元时,第一接入网设备确定第三接入网设备作为预计切换目标;步骤407.第一接入网设备向核心网设备发送对第三接入网设备的第四切换请求;步骤408.核心网设备向第三接入网设备发送第五切换请求;步骤409.第三接入网设备向核心网设备反馈第五切换请求响应;步骤410.核心网根据第五切换请求响应向第一接入网设备发送第四切换命令;步骤411.当该第四切换命令包括安全结果信元时,第一接入网设备向终端设备发送对第三接入网设备的RRC连接重新配置消息。后续的流程可参考3GPP 36.423中针对X2切换的处理流程。
本申请实施例中,第一接入网设备确定有UPIP功能的承载的UE需要切换小区时,在确定预设范围内信号切换优先级最高的第二接入网设备时,先确定该第二接入网设备是否支持UPIP功能,当该第二接入网设备不支持UPIP功能时,重新选择在所述预设范围内支持UPIP功能的接入网设备中优先级低于该第二接入网设备的第三接入网设备作为切换目标,再将终端设备切换到该第三接入网设备。由于第三接入网设备支持UPIP功能,可以识别协议信元,且该第三接入网设备的信号质量高于第一接入网设备,则可以提高网络性能。
