- Adding interfaces between networks reduces the complexity of the network, and does not need to modify the protocol stack of the terminal, which reduces the complexity of the terminal.
- the embodiment of the present invention further provides a method for switching an LTE network to an eHRPD network, including two processes of registration and handover.
- the handover process may include:
- the terminal is powered on. Since the priority of the LTE network is higher than that of the eHRPD network, the terminal first searches for the LTE network.
- 302 After the terminal successfully searches for the LTE network, the terminal performs an LTE network registration process in the LTE network, that is, an initial attach process of the LTE network, and the proxy mobile IP tunnel established in the registration process is located at the S-GW and the P. -Between GW.
- the terminal After receiving the system broadcast message of the LTE network, the terminal determines whether the pre-registration field PreRegistrationAllowed in the system broadcast message is set to “Allow”, that is, determines whether the network side indicates that the terminal is allowed to register to the eHRPD network, if the pre-registration field Set to "Allow”, the terminal searches for the eHRPD network if the pre-registration field is Set to "not allowed", the terminal does not search for the eHRPD network.
- the terminal searches for the eHRPD network in the LTE idle state; if the terminal is a dual-transmitting dual-receiving terminal, the terminal searches for the eHRPD network in the LTE idle state or the LTE active state.
- the terminal may also perform other methods for determining, for example, adding a new field in the system broadcast message, by setting the new field.
- “Allow” or “Disallow” indicates that the terminal is currently allowed to register in the eHRPD network, or indicates that the terminal is currently not allowed to register in the eHRPD network.
- the eHRPD network is started to register with the eHRPD network, that is, the initial attach process of the eHRPD network is started, and the registration process includes: eHRPD air interface session negotiation, PPP negotiation, and EAP-AKA authentication, etc. However, it does not include the establishment of the PDN connection and the subsequent process.
- the terminal is a single-issue dual-receiving terminal, the terminal searches for the eHRPD network and then switches to the eHRPD mode to start the eHRPD network registration through the eHRPD air interface. If the terminal is a dual-issue dual-receiving terminal, the eHRPD network is directly started through the eHRPD air interface. registered.
- the terminal sends a VSNCP (Vendor Specific Network Control Protocol) configuration request message VSNCP Config-Req to the HSGW, requesting to establish a PDN connection, and the Attach Type field in the configuration request message is set to "Registration Only", for example, setting the value of this field to 255, which means "registration", setting the attachment type field to "registration” is used to indicate that the HSGW in the eHRPD network does not need to register in the eHRPD network.
- the proxy mobile IP tunnel is established to the P-GW.
- the proxy mobile IP tunnel between the HSGW and the P-GW is established in the process of the terminal switching from the LTE network to the eHRPD network.
- VSNCP is an extended PPP network control protocol.
- the VSNCP protocol is usually used to establish a PDN connection.
- the attachment type field in the VSNCP configuration request message may be set to: "initial attachment”, "switch” or "registration”.
- the attachment type field is set to "initial attachment” or "switch”
- the HSGW performs the corresponding processing flow.
- the PDN ID in the configuration request message can be set to the default PDN ID, which is usually 15. If the terminal has established multiple PDN connections in LTE, the terminal does not need to initiate registration of the non-default PDN connection, but establishes a non-default PDN connection after actually switching to the eHRPD network.
- the HSGW establishes a gateway control session to the PCRF (Policy and Charging Rules Function) entity, and the gateway control session may not be established when the terminal registers with the eHRPD network, but when the terminal switches to the eHRPD network. Establish again.
- PCRF Policy and Charging Rules Function
- the HSGW determines whether the attachment type field in the received VSNCP configuration request message is "registration”, if If yes, the proxy mobile IP tunnel to the P-GW is not established, and the VSNCP configuration confirmation message VSNCP Config-Ack is directly returned to the terminal; otherwise, the corresponding processing flow, such as the initial attach procedure, the handover procedure, etc., is performed according to the content of the attachment type field. Wait.
- the HSGW sends a VSNCP configuration request message VSNCP Config-Req to the terminal, where the PDN ID carried in the message is the same as the PDN ID in the VSNCP configuration request message sent by the terminal.
- the terminal After receiving the VSNCP configuration request message sent by the HSGW, the terminal returns a VSNCP configuration confirmation message VSNCP Config-Ack to the HSGW, where the VSNCP configuration confirmation message carries the PDN ID, and the terminal completes the registration process to the eHRPD network.
- the terminal releases the eHRPD air interface established in the eHRPD network registration process, and enters a sleep state.
- the terminal negotiates an air interface session and then establishes an air interface connection. After completing the registration to the eHRPD network, the terminal can release the eHRPD air interface connection.
- the eHRPD air interface session needs to be kept alive.
- the eHRPD air interface session keeps alive, so that the eHRPD air interface session information is not Lost, eHRPD air interface session information includes but is not limited to: the type of protocol negotiated, the attribute value used by the negotiation protocol, parameters, and so on.
- the terminal When the terminal is a single-issue dual-receiving terminal, the terminal switches to the LTE mode. If the terminal is a dual-issue dual-receiving terminal, the step is not performed.
- the terminal suspends the ongoing eHRPD network registration, the registration fails, and processes the paging from the LTE network, when the terminal enters the LTE idle state. Then re-register the eHRPD network.
- the foregoing process performs the registration process of the eHRPD network for the terminal residing in the LTE network. After the terminal completes the registration to the eHRPD network, if the terminal meets the conditions for switching to the eHRPD network at a certain time, the terminal initiates a handover to the eHRPD network.
- the switching process may include:
- the terminal determines that the channel quality of the LTE cell is less than a preset first threshold, and the channel quality of the eHRPD cell is higher than a preset second threshold, the terminal determines to switch to the eHRPD network, and sends a connection request message ConnectionRequest in the eHRPD network.
- the terminal determines to switch to the eHRPD network, and sends a connection request message ConnectionRequest in the eHRPD network.
- the values of the first threshold and the second threshold are separately set in advance, and usually the values of the two are different.
- the eAN After receiving the connection request message sent by the terminal, the eAN determines, according to the UATI (Unicast Access Terminal Identifier) of the terminal carried in the message, the subnet identifier (ie, the color) in the UATI. Code, Color Code) Is it the identity of the device? If yes, it is determined that the UATI update is not required. Otherwise, it is determined that the terminal does not update the UATI in time.
- the subnet identifier in the UATI is the identifier of the source subnet where the terminal is located, and the current terminal is located.
- the subnet is the target subnet of the terminal, so a UATI update is required, and the source of the terminal is determined according to the subnet identifier in the UATI.
- the eAN that is, the S-eAN in the figure, obtains the air interface session information of the terminal from the S-eAN. Specifically, the standard A13 session migration process is performed to obtain the eHRPD air interface session information from the S-eAN. In FIG. 4, the result of the determination is no.
- the eAN determines that the UATI update is not required, the eA sends a TCA (Traffic Channel Assignment) to the terminal to establish a traffic channel for the terminal; if the eAN determines that the UATI update is required, the UATI assignment is sent to the terminal.
- TCA Traffic Channel Assignment
- UATI Assignment and TCA update the UATI of the terminal, and establish a traffic channel for the terminal.
- the UATI consists of two parts, a subnet identifier and a terminal identifier.
- the subnet identifier is used to identify different subnets. Each subnet identifier uniquely corresponds to one subnet and the eAN of the subnet.
- the terminal identifier is on the subnet. The only one that is valid is used to identify the terminal within the subnet.
- the terminal If the terminal receives the TCA, it returns a TCC (Traffic Channel Complete message) to the eAN, indicating that the service channel is successfully established. If the terminal receives the UATI assignment message and the TCA, the terminal returns a UATI assignment completion message ( UATI Assignment Complete) and P TCC, indicating that the UATI update is completed and the service channel is successfully established.
- TCC Traffic Channel Complete message
- the eAN sends an All-Registration Request message to the HSGW, where the message includes an Active-Start charging record, indicating that the terminal has accessed the eHRPD network.
- the HSGW After receiving the Al l registration request message, the HSGW determines whether the message includes an Active-Start charging record. If yes, the HSGW has established a traffic channel for the terminal, and the HSGW sends a proxy mobile IP binding update to the P-GW. Message (PMIP Binding Update), establish a proxy mobile IP tunnel.
- the P-GW interacts with the PCRF, reports an event of a RAT (Radio Access Type) change, initiates an IP-CAN session modification process, and updates an IP-CAN session.
- a RAT Radio Access Type
- the P-GW returns a proxy mobile IP binding acknowledgement message (PMIP Binding Ack). This step can also be performed after 406.
- the HSGW returns an Al-Registration Reply message to the eAN, and the proxy mobile IP tunnel is established, and the handover of the terminal to the eHRPD network is completed. This step may also be performed after 405.
- the HSGW uses the RSVP (Resource Reservation Protocol) protocol to notify the terminal to establish a corresponding QoS flow.
- RSVP Resource Reservation Protocol
- 410 and 411 can also be performed in parallel, and the dedicated QoS flow belonging to a certain PDN should wait for the corresponding PDN connection.
- the dedicated QoS flow fails to be established, the PCRF is notified to delete the corresponding QoS flow.
- the P-GW sends a Binding Revocation Indication to the S-GW, and triggers release of resources on the LTE side.
- the eHRPD air interface session maintenance may be performed, including the air interface session keep-alive and the subnet change processing.
- the air interface session preservation process may specifically include:
- the eAN sends a keepalive request message (KeepAliveRequest) to the terminal, and performs eHRPD air interface session detection.
- the terminal After receiving the keep-alive request message, the terminal determines whether the currently received system broadcast message on the LTE network side indicates that the device is allowed to register to the eHRPD network, and if the pre-registration field (PreRegistrationAllowed) is “allowed”, if yes, Then, the eHRPD air interface session keep-alive processing is performed. Otherwise, the eHRPD session keep-alive processing is not performed. In this case, if the eAN detects that the preset keep-alive timeout period expires, the eHRPD air interface session is deleted, and the registration state is exited.
- KeepAliveRequest keepalive request message
- the terminal performs the eHRPD air interface session keep-alive processing, which may include:
- the dual-issue dual-receiving terminal performs air interface session preservation processing on the eHRPD network; if the terminal is a single-transmitting dual-receiving terminal, the single-transmitting dual-receiving terminal determines its own state, if it is LTE If the state is idle, the device switches to eHRPD mode for air interface session keep-alive processing. If it is in the LTE active state, it determines whether the preset keep-alive timeout period is reached. If yes, it switches to eHRPD mode for air interface session keep-alive processing. Otherwise, The identifier is set to indicate that when the single-transmitting and dual-receiving terminal enters the LTE idle state, the air interface session keep-alive processing is performed.
- the preset keep-alive timeout period can be set to different values according to requirements, such as preset 18 hours as the keep-alive timeout period. Further, the number of keepalive timeouts may be preset. For example, when the preset keep-alive timeout reaches 3 times, the air interface session is deleted. When the single-issue dual-receiving terminal is in the LTE active state, if the keep-alive timeout reaches the third time, Then immediately switch to eHRPD mode for air interface session keep-alive processing.
- the terminal returns a keepalive response message (KeepAliveResponse) to the eAN, and the eAN continues to retain the existing air interface session information.
- KeepAliveResponse keepalive response message
- the terminal closes the eHRPD transmitter and switches to LTE mode, that is, to the LTE network.
- the terminal can maintain the air interface session through the air interface session to ensure that the air interface session information is not lost, so as to avoid renegotiating the air interface session when the handover is performed, so as to reduce the handover terminal time.
- the subnet change processing may also be performed, including: 601: The terminal resides in the LTE network after completing the registration of the eHRPD network.
- 602 The eAN periodically broadcasts a quick configuration and sector parameter message (QuickConfig & SectorParameters).
- 603 After receiving the fast configuration and sector parameter message, the terminal determines whether the subnet in the eHRPD network changes according to the content of the fast configuration and the sector parameter message. If the subnet changes, the terminal has moved from the source subnet to If the target subnet is used, it is determined whether the currently received system broadcast message on the LTE network side is allowed to be registered to the eHRPD network. If yes, the UATI update is performed when the terminal is in the LTE idle state, or the terminal is in the LTE active state. When the UATI update is not performed, the UATI update is performed after the terminal enters the LTE idle state. If the terminal remains in the LTE active state until switching to the eHRPD network, the UATI update is performed while the terminal is switched.
- the UATI update is performed after switching to the eHRPD mode. If the terminal is a dual-issue dual-receiving terminal, the UATI update is performed directly on the eHRPD network.
- the terminal performs a UATI assignment process, and acquires a new UATI from the T-eAN/PCF of the target subnet. If the source subnet and the target subnet belong to the same eAN, the eAN re-assigns a UATI to the terminal; The network and the target subnet belong to different eANs, and the T-eAN/PCF of the target subnet performs an A13 session to migrate the eHRPD air interface session information from the S-eAN/PCF of the source subnet, and allocates a new UATI, and then transmits the new UATI to the terminal.
- the eHRPD transmitter is turned off and tuned to the LTE network. If the terminal is a dual-issue dual-receiving terminal, this step is not performed.
- the terminal can be updated by the subnet to ensure that the UATI is updated, and the eHRPD air interface session information is migrated from the source S-eAN/PCF, so that the negotiated air interface session information is lost, so that the air interface session is not renegotiated during the handover execution. Switch the interruption time.
- the terminal can also perform PPP session maintenance, as follows:
- the terminal When the terminal receives the PPP session detection message sent by the HSGW, if the terminal is in the LTE network, the terminal does not respond to the PPP session detection message.
- the eAN air interface session keepalive detection timeout expires, the eHRPD air interface session is released.
- the eAN/PCF initiates the release of the primary A10 connection, thereby triggering the HSGW to release the PPP session.
- the HSGW treats all users as Always-on users (that is, always online), and the HSGW does not implement PPP Session timer session timing.
- the default value of the PPP inactivity timer in the HSGW is 0. That is, the PPP inactivity period is infinite.
- the HSGW does not initiate PPP session detection.
- the PPP inactivity period uses the default value of 0.
- the HSGW sends an LCP Echo Request message to the terminal for PPP session detection when the inactive period reaches the specified time.
- the terminal After receiving the PPP session detection message, the terminal does not return an LCP Echo Reply response message if the terminal is currently camped on the LTE network, so that the HSGW releases the PPP session and reestablishes the PPP when the terminal switches to the eHRPD network next time.
- the PPP session maintenance of the terminal does not respond to the PPP session detection of the HSGW.
- the PPP session is prevented from responding to the PPP session, so that the service channel is established for the terminal, so that the network side identifies the terminal that has been switched to the eHRPD network, thereby generating an unnecessary LTE network to the eHRPD network. Switching.
- the terminal may use the unreleased eHRPD air interface if the terminal meets the condition for switching to the eHRPD network before the eHRPD air interface connection is released.
- the connection execution switching process as shown in FIG. 7, may specifically include:
- the terminal completes the registration from the LTE network to the eHRPD network, and detects that the terminal meets the condition for switching to the eHRPD network before releasing the eHRPD air interface connection, and sends a VSNCP configuration request message VSNCP Config-Req to the HSGW, and the attachment type in the message
- the field is set to "Handover Attach", which triggers the establishment of the proxy mobile IP tunnel.
- the HSGW After receiving the VSNCP configuration request message, the HSGW does not need to re-establish the eHRPD air interface connection, and the UATI updates and establishes the traffic channel, directly establishes the proxy mobile IP tunnel, and completes the terminal by using the proxy mobile IP tunnel. Switch to the eHRPD network.
- the HSGW establishes a proxy mobile IP tunnel and the handover process of the terminal to the eHRPD network, which is the same as 406 to 412 in the embodiment of the present invention, and is not described herein.
- the method of the embodiment of the present invention can adjust the sequence of each step according to actual needs.
- the foregoing method provided by the embodiment of the present invention performs registration by using an eHRPD air interface before the terminal switches to the eHRPD network, and completes the eHRPD air interface session negotiation, PPP negotiation, and EAP-AKA authentication before the handover of the LTE to eHRPD occurs. Only the eHRPD air interface connection and the proxy mobile IP tunnel switching are established, which greatly reduces the service interruption time of the LTE network to the eHRPD network handover. Compared with the existing optimized handover, it is not completed by LTE and S101 tunnels, which greatly reduces the complexity of the network. Moreover, there is no need to modify the protocol stack of the terminal, which reduces the complexity of the terminal.
- the terminal performs the air interface session keep-alive and subnet change processing as needed in the LTE idle state, which ensures that the terminal does not exit the eHRPD registration state, ensuring the validity of the eHRPD registration.
- the embodiment of the present invention further provides a network switching method, which may specifically include:
- the LTE network sends a message to the terminal, indicating that the terminal is allowed to register the eHRPD network.
- the eHRPD network side establishes a proxy mobile IP tunnel, and the proxy mobile IP tunnel completes the handover of the terminal to the eHRPD network.
- the above method may further include:
- the HSGW of the eHRPD network receives the device extension network control protocol VSNCP configuration request message sent by the terminal, and the HSGW determines whether the attachment type field carried in the configuration request message is a registration, and if yes, The HSGW does not establish a proxy mobile IP tunnel to the packet data network gateway during the registration process.
- the above method may further include:

Description
种网络切换方法、 终端、 网关和网络系统 技术领域
本发明涉及移动通信技术领域, 特别涉及一种网络切换方法、 终端、 网关和网络系统。 背景技术
LTE (Long Term Evolution,长其月演进)技术是 3GPP ( Third Generation Partnership Project, 第三代合作伙伴计划) 的演进, 它改进并增强了 3G的空中接入技术, 采用正交频分复用和 多输入多输出作为其无线网络演进的唯一标准。在 LTE网络中, Serving Gateway (服务网关) 和 PDN Gateway (分组数据网络网关, P-GW) 是演进后的网关, 负责转发数据包, MME (Mobility Management Entity, 移动性管理实体) 是信令控制实体, 负责鉴权、 移动性管理 等功能。 演进后的网络不提供传统电路交换的语音功能, 只提供高速率数据承载业务, 演进 后的网络还能够支持与 3GPP的第三代无线数据网络和第二点五代无线数据网络的互通。
HRPD ( High Rate Packet Data, 高速率分组数据) 是一种 3GPP2 ( Third Generation
Partnership Project 2, 第三代合作伙伴计划 2) 定义的第三代数据无线通信系统, 不提供传统 电路交换的语音功能, 只提供高速率数据承载业务。在 HRPD网络中, AN (Access Network, 接入网)实体是一种网元, 相当于基站和基站控制器, 负责数据的调制解调以及切换等功能。 PCF (Packet Control Function, 分组控制功能) 实体负责数据转发和分组数据会话状态维护。 eHRPD (evolved High Rate Packet Data, 演进的高速率分组数据) 是为了与 LTE进行互操作 的 HRPD网络演进, 即 HRPD网络为了与 LTE网络进行互操作, 需要先演进到 eHRPD。
当 UE (User Equipment, 用户设备, 又称为终端) 从 LTE网络切换到 eHRPD网络时, 现有技术通常采用两种方式完成切换。第一种方式为非优化切换,非优化切换网络架构中 LTE 与 eHRPD无线网络之间无接口, LTE和 eHRPD接入统一的 EPC (Evolved Packet Core, 演 进分组核心) 网, 接入锚点为 PDN Gateway。 在 UE发生 LTE和 eHRPD之间的切换时, UE 在 eHRPD网络内进行 eHRPD会话协商、 PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol, 点对点协议) 协商和 EAP-AKA (Extensible Authentication Protocol- Authentication and Key Agreement, 扩展鉴权协、 议 -鉴权和密钥协议) 鉴权, 然后由 HSGW (HRPD Serving Gateway, HRPD服务网关) 发起 到 PDN Gateway的代理移动 IP隧道建立, PDN Gateway释放 PDN Gateway到 S-GW( Serving
Gateway, 服务网关) 之间的代理移动 IP隧道, 完成 LTE网络到 eHRPD网络的切换。
第二种方式为优化切换,优化切换方式下, LTE网络与 eHRPD网络之间增加了两个接口, 一个接口是 MME与 eAN ( evolved Access Network, 接入网)之间的 S101接口, 其本质是一 个隧道, 转发 UE和目标网络之间的信令和数据, 辅助 UE在目标网络进行预注册或者从源 网络切换到目标网络; 另一个接口是 Serving Gateway和 HSGW之间的 S103接口, 用于转发 3GPP演进网络滞留的数据到 eHRPD网络, 然后通过 eHRPD网络发送给 UE。 当 UE驻留在 LTE网络时, 提前通过 LTE网络和 S101隧道进行预注册, 与目标 eHRPD网络执行 eHRPD 会话协商、 PPP协商、 EAP-AKA鉴权; 当满足 LTE到 eHRPD的切换条件时, 通过 LTE和 S101隧道发送切换消息给目标 eHRPD, 目标 eHRPD分配无线资源后, UE再离开 LTE接入 目标 eHRPD, 从而极大地缩短了切换的时间。 可选地, 还可以利用 S103隧道解决数据的无 损传输问题, 降低传输过程中的丢包率。
在实施本发明的过程中, 发明人发现现有技术中至少存在以下缺点:
第一种方式下当 UE决定发起从 LTE到 eHRPD的切换时, 即离开了源 LTE网络, 并且 在目标 eHRPD网络执行 eHRPD会话协商、 PPP协商和 EAP-AKA鉴权等过程, 由于执行这 些过程通常需要几秒时间, 导致切换中断时间较长, 影响了用户的体验。 第二种方式虽然极 大地降低了 LTE到 eHRPD切换的业务中断时间, 但是需要在 LTE和 eHRPD网络之间增加 两个接口,增加了网络复杂性,而且需要修改 UE的协议栈,才能使 UE通过 LTE发送 eHRPD 消息, 从而增加了 UE的复杂性。 发明内容

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一部分实施例, 而不是全部的实施例。 基于本发明中的 实施例, 本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例, 都属 于本发明保护的范围。
本发明实施例提供的技术方案应用于终端在 LTE网络和 eHRPD网络进行切换的场景, 网络架构如图 1所示。 图中虚线上方为 LTE网络, 通过 eNodeB (演进的基站) 为终端 UE 提供服务,虚线下方为 eHRPD网络,通过 HRPD BTS (Base Transceiver Station,基站收发台) 为终端 UE提供服务。
本发明实施例中的终端包括双模终端和多模终端, 例如, 支持 LTE 网络接入技术和 eHRPD网络接入技术的双模终端,以及支持 HRPD接入技术、 CDMA2000 lx接入技术和 LTE 接入技术的多模终端。 其中, 双模终端又包括单发双收终端和双发双收终端。 单发双收终端 是指具有两个接收机和一个发射机的双模终端, 它能够同时接收两个网络 (不同的无线接入 技术) 的信息, 但是在某个时刻, 只能在一个网络发送信息, 而不能同时在两个网络发送信
息。 双发双收终端是指具有两个接收机和两个发射机的双模终端, 它能够同时接收两个网络 的信息, 而且能够同时在两个网络发送信息。 单发双收终端的成本较双发双收终端的成本低 廉, 而且一个发射机耗电更少, 双发双收终端较单发双收终端的成本高, 而且两个发射机更 耗电。
参见图 2, 本发明实施例提供了一种网络切换方法, 可以包括:
201: 驻留在 LTE网络的终端根据 LTE网络的指示, 通过 eHRPD空口进行 eHRPD网络 的注册;
其中,该注册过程包括: eHRPD会话协商、 PPP协商和 EAP-AKA鉴权等过程; EAP-AKA 是一种双向的鉴权协议, 可以实现终端和网络的互相鉴权;
202:当终端决定切换到 eHRPD网络时,建立与 eHRPD网络的空口连接,并触发 eHRPD 网络建立代理移动 IP隧道;
其中, 移动 IP (MIP, Mobile IP) 是一种实现 IP移动性的协议, 用户在不同的 IP网络 之间移动时, 能保证分配相同的 IP地址。 代理移动 IP (PMIP, Proxy Mobile IP)是指由网络 中的一个网元(如 LTE网络中 Serving Gateway或 eHRPD网络中的 HSGW)代理终端发起移 动 IP协议, 不需要终端支持移动 IP协议, 简化了终端的处理;
在本发明实施例中, 代理移动 IP隧道建立在 HSGW和 P-GW之间;
203: ώ代理移动 IP隧道完成终端从 LTE网络到 eHRPD网络的切换。
本发明实施例方法可以根据实际需要对各个步骤顺序进行调整。 本发明实施例通过在终 端决定发起从 LTE到 eHRPD的切换之前, 在 LTE网络内通过 eHRPD空口进行 eHRPD网络 的注册, 极大地降低了切换中断时间, 提升了用户的体验, 而且不用在 LTE和 eHRPD网络 之间增加接口, 降低了网络的复杂性, 也不需要修改终端的协议栈, 降低了终端的复杂性。
本发明实施例还提供了一种 LTE网络到 eHRPD网络的切换方法, 包括注册和切换两个 流程, 参见图 3, 切换流程可以包括:
301:终端开机,由于 LTE网络的优先级高于 eHRPD网络,因此终端先搜索到 LTE网络。 302:终端成功搜索到 LTE网络后,终端在 LTE网络内执行 LTE网络的注册过程,即 LTE 网络的初始附着过程 (Initial Attach), 该注册过程中建立的代理移动 IP隧道位于 S-GW和 P-GW之间。
303: 终端接收到 LTE 网络的系统广播消息后, 判断该系统广播消息中的预注册字段 PreRegistrationAllowed是否被设置为 "允许",即判断网络侧是否指示允许终端注册到 eHRPD 网络, 如果该预注册字段被设置为 "允许", 则终端搜索 eHRPD网络, 如果该预注册字段被
设置为 "不允许", 则终端不搜索 eHRPD网络。
具体地, 如果终端为单发双收终端, 则该终端在 LTE空闲态时搜索 eHRPD网络; 如果 终端为双发双收终端, 则该终端在 LTE空闲态或 LTE激活态时搜索 eHRPD网络。
本实施例中, 终端除了采用上述利用系统广播消息中的预注册字段进行判断的方式外, 还可以采用其它方式进行判断, 例如, 在系统广播消息中增加新的字段, 通过设置该新的字 段为 "允许"或 "不允许"来指示当前允许终端注册到 eHRPD网络中, 或者指示当前不允许 终端注册到 eHRPD网络中。
304: 终端搜索到 eHRPD网络后, 通过 eHRPD空口开始进行 eHRPD网络的注册, 即开 始执行 eHRPD网络的初始附着过程, 该注册过程包括: eHRPD空口会话协商、 PPP协商和 EAP-AKA鉴权等过程, 但不包括 PDN连接建立及后续过程。 如果终端为单发双收终端, 则 终端搜索到 eHRPD网络后,切换到 eHRPD模式通过 eHRPD空口开始进行 eHRPD网络的注 册, 如果终端为双发双收终端, 则直接通过 eHRPD空口开始进行 eHRPD网络的注册。
305: 终端发送 VSNCP (Vendor Specific Network Control Protocol, 设备商扩展网络控制 协议)配置请求消息 VSNCP Config-Req给 HSGW, 请求建立 PDN连接, 并且该配置请求消 息中的附着类型 (Attach Type) 字段设置为 "注册"(Registration Only), 例如, 将该字段的 值设置为 255, 代表 "注册", 将附着类型字段设置为 "注册"是用来指示 eHRPD网络内的 HSGW不用在该 eHRPD网络的注册过程中建立到 P-GW的代理移动 IP隧道, 本实施例中, HSGW和 P-GW之间的代理移动 IP隧道是在终端从 LTE网络切换到 eHRPD网络的过程中建 立的。
VSNCP是一种扩展的 PPP网络控制协议, 在 eHRPD网络中通常采用 VSNCP协议来建 立 PDN连接。本实施例中, VSNCP配置请求消息中的附着类型字段可以被设置为: "初始附 着"、 "切换"或 "注册"。 当该附着类型字段被设置为 "初始附着"或 "切换"时, HSGW则 执行相应的处理流程。
本步骤中, 该配置请求消息中的 PDN ID可以设置为缺省的 PDN ID, 通常取值为 15。如 果终端已在 LTE建立了多个 PDN连接, 则终端不用发起非缺省 PDN连接的注册, 而是在实 际切换到 eHRPD网络后再建立非缺省 PDN连接。
306: HSGW建立到 PCRF (Policy and Charging Rules Function, 策略和计费规则功能) 实体的网关控制会话,该网关控制会话也可以不在终端注册到 eHRPD网络时建立,而是在终 端切换到 eHRPD网络时再建立。
307: HSGW判断收到的 VSNCP配置请求消息中的附着类型字段是否为 "注册", 如果
是, 则不建立到 P-GW的代理移动 IP隧道, 直接给终端返回 VSNCP配置确认消息 VSNCP Config-Ack; 否则, 根据附着类型字段的内容执行相应的处理流程, 如初始附着流程、 切换 流程等等。
308: HSGW发送 VSNCP配置请求消息 VSNCP Config-Req给终端,该消息中携带的 PDN ID与终端发来的 VSNCP配置请求消息中的 PDN ID相同。
309:终端收到 HSGW发送的 VSNCP配置请求消息后,返回 VSNCP配置确认消息 VSNCP Config-Ack给 HSGW, 该 VSNCP配置确认消息中携带上述 PDN ID, 至此, 终端完成了到 eHRPD网络的注册过程。
310: 如果此时终端满足驻留在 LTE的条件, 则终端将上述 eHRPD网络注册过程中建立 的 eHRPD空口连接释放, 进入休眠态。 通常, 终端先协商空口会话, 然后建立空口连接, 终 端完成到 eHRPD网络的注册后, 可以释放 eHRPD空口连接, 但是 eHRPD空口会话需要保 活, 通过 eHRPD空口会话保活, 可以使得 eHRPD空口会话信息不丢失, eHRPD空口会话信 息包括但不限于: 协商的协议类型, 协商协议使用的属性值、 参数等等。
311: 当终端为单发双收终端时, 终端切换到 LTE模式, 如果终端为双发双收终端, 则 不用执行本步骤。
进一步地, 如果终端在 eHRPD网络注册过程中接收到来自 LTE网络的寻呼, 则终端中 止正在进行的 eHRPD网络注册, 本次注册失败, 并处理来自 LTE网络的寻呼, 当终端进入 LTE空闲态时再重新进行 eHRPD网络的注册。
上述过程为驻留在 LTE网络的终端进行 eHRPD网络的注册过程, 当终端完成到 eHRPD 网络的注册后,如果在某一时刻终端满足切换到 eHRPD网络的条件,则终端会发起到 eHRPD 网络的切换, 参见图 4, 切换流程可以包括:
401: 当终端判断 LTE小区的信道质量小于预设的第一门限, 并且 eHRPD小区的信道质 量高于预设的第二门限时, 终端判决切换到 eHRPD网络, 在 eHRPD网络内发送连接请求消 息 ConnectionRequest给网络侧, 执行标准的连接建立过程。 其中, 第一门限和第二门限的值 是预先分别设置的, 通常二者的值不相同。
402: eAN收到终端发来的连接请求消息后, 根据该消息中携带的终端的 UATI (Unicast Access Terminal Identifier, 接入终端单播标识)进行判断, 判断该 UATI中的子网标识(即色 码, Color Code) 是否为自身的标识, 如果是, 则确定不需要进行 UATI更新, 否则, 确定终 端没有及时更新 UATI, 该 UATI中的子网标识为终端所在源子网的标识, 当前终端所在的子 网为终端的目标子网, 因此需要进行 UATI更新,根据该 UATI中的子网标识确定出终端的源
eAN, 即图中的 S-eAN, 并从 S-eAN获取终端的空口会话信息, 具体地, 执行标准的 A13会 话迁移过程从 S-eAN获取 eHRPD空口会话信息。 图 4中以判断的结果为否为例进行说明。
403: 如果 eAN确定不需要进行 UATI更新, 则 eA 向终端发送 TCA (Traffic Channel Assignment,业务信道指配消息),为终端建立业务信道;如果 eAN确定需要进行 UATI更新, 则向终端发送 UATI指配消息 (UATI Assignment) 和 TCA, 更新终端的 UATI, 并且为终端 建立业务信道。
其中, UATI由两部分组成, 子网标识和终端标识, 子网标识用于标识不同的子网, 每个 子网标识都唯一对应一个子网, 以及该子网的 eAN; 终端标识在该子网内是唯一有效的, 用 于标识该子网内的终端。
404: 如果终端收到 TCA, 则返回 TCC (Traffic Channel Complete, 业务信道完成消息) 给 eAN, 表示业务信道建立成功; 如果终端收到 UATI指配消息和 TCA, 则终端返回 UATI 指配完成消息 (UATI Assignment Complete)禾 P TCC, 表示 UATI更新完成和业务信道建立成 功。
405: eAN向 HSGW发送 All注册请求消息 (All -Registration Request), 该消息中包含 激活开始 (Active-Start) 计费记录, 表明终端已经接入 eHRPD网络。
406: HSGW收到 Al l注册请求消息后, 判断该消息中是否包含 Active-Start计费记录, 如果包含,则表明已经为终端建立了业务信道, HSGW向 P-GW发送代理移动 IP绑定更新消 息 (PMIP Binding Update), 建立代理移动 IP隧道。
407: P-GW与 PCRF交互, 上报 RAT (Radio Access Type, 无线接入类型)改变的事件, 发起 IP-CAN会话修改过程, 更新 IP-CAN会话。
408: P-GW返回代理移动 IP绑定确认消息 (PMIP Binding Ack), 本步骤也可以在 406 后执行。
409: HSGW向 eAN返回 Al l注册应答消息 (All -Registration Reply) 消息, 代理移动 IP隧道建立完成, 终端到 eHRPD网络的切换完成, 本步骤也可以在 405后执行。
410: 如果终端切换到 eHRPD网络前存在专用 QoS (Quality of Service, 服务质量) 流, 则 HSGW使用 RSVP (Resource reservation Protocol, 资源预留协议)协议通知终端建立相应 的 QoS流。 本步骤为可选步骤, 图中用虚线表示。
411: 如果终端切换到 eHRPD网络前已建立了多个 PDN连接, 则切换后终端发起非缺省 PDN连接建立。 本步骤也为可选步骤, 图中用虚线表示。
另外, 410和 411还可以并行进行, 属于某个 PDN的专用 QoS流要等对应的 PDN连接
建立后才建立, 如果专用 QoS流建立失败, 通知 PCRF删除对应的 QoS流。
412: P-GW发送绑定释放指示消息(Binding Revocation Indication)给 S-GW, 触发释放 LTE侧的资源。
图 3和图 4结合起来完整地描述了注册和切换的流程。进一步地,在终端完成 eHRPD网 络的注册之后, 还可以对 eHRPD空口会话维护, 包括空口会话保活和子网变更处理, 参见图 5, 空口会话保活流程具体可以包括:
501: 终端完成 eHRPD网络的注册之后驻留在 LTE网络。
502: eAN发送保活请求消息 (KeepAliveRequest)给终端, 进行 eHRPD空口会话检测。 503: 终端收到该保活请求消息后, 判断当前收到的 LTE 网络侧的系统广播消息中是否 指示为允许注册到 eHRPD网络,如判断预注册字段(PreRegistrationAllowed)是否为 "允许", 如果是, 则进行 eHRPD空口会话保活处理, 否则, 不进行 eHRPD会话保活处理, 这种情况 下, 如果 eAN检测到预设的保活超时时间到时, 则删除 eHRPD空口会话, 退出注册状态。
其中, 终端进行 eHRPD空口会话保活处理, 具体可以包括:
如果终端为双发双收终端, 则该双发双收终端在 eHRPD网络进行空口会话保活处理; 如果终端为单发双收终端, 则该单发双收终端判断自身的状态, 如果为 LTE空闲态, 则 切换到 eHRPD模式进行空口会话保活处理, 如果为 LTE激活态, 则判断是否达到预设的保 活超时时间, 如果是, 则切换到 eHRPD模式进行空口会话保活处理, 否则, 设置标识, 指示 当单发双收终端进入 LTE空闲态时, 再进行空口会话保活处理。
其中, 预设保活超时时间可以根据需要设置成不同的值, 如预设 18个小时为保活超时时 间。 进一步地, 还可以预设保活超时的次数, 例如, 预设保活超时达到 3次时, 删除空口会 话, 当单发双收终端处于 LTE激活态时, 如果保活超时达到第 3次, 则立即切换到 eHRPD 模式进行空口会话保活处理。
504: 终端返回保活响应消息 (KeepAliveResponse) 给 eAN, eAN继续保留已有的空口 会话信息。
505: 终端关闭 eHRPD发射机, 切换到 LTE模式, 即调谐到 LTE网络。
终端通过空口会话保活处理, 可以维持空口会话, 保证空口会话信息不丢失, 从而避免 在切换执行时重新协商空口会话, 以减少切换终端时间。
参见图 6, 在终端完成 eHRPD网络的注册之后, 还可以进行子网变更处理, 包括: 601: 终端完成 eHRPD网络的注册之后驻留在 LTE网络。
602: eAN周期性广播快速配置和扇区参数消息 (QuickConfig & SectorParameters)。
603: 终端接收到快速配置和扇区参数消息后, 根据快速配置和扇区参数消息的内容判断 eHRPD网络内的子网是否发生变化, 如果子网发生变化, 即终端已经从源子网移动到目标子 网, 则判断当前收到的 LTE网络侧的系统广播消息中是否指示为允许注册到 eHRPD网络, 如果是, 则在终端处于 LTE空闲态时, 进行 UATI更新, 或者在终端处于 LTE激活态时, 不 进行 UATI更新,而是等到终端进入 LTE空闲态后再进行 UATI更新,如果终端一直保持 LTE 激活态直到切换到 eHRPD网络, 则在终端切换的同时进行 UATI更新。
其中, 如果终端为单发双收终端, 则切换到 eHRPD模式后进行 UATI更新, 如果终端为 双发双收终端, 则直接在 eHRPD网络进行 UATI更新。
604: 终端执行 UATI指配过程, 从目标子网的 T-eAN/PCF获取新的 UATI, 如果源子网 和目标子网属于相同的 eAN, 则该 eAN重新给终端分配一个 UATI; 如果源子网和目标子网 属于不同的 eAN,则目标子网的 T-eAN/PCF执行 A13会话从源子网的 S-eAN/PCF迁移 eHRPD 空口会话信息, 并分配新的 UATI, 然后发送给终端。
605: 当终端为单发双收终端时, 关闭 eHRPD发射机, 调谐到 LTE网络, 如果终端为双 发双收终端, 则不用执行本步骤。
终端通过子网变更处理, 可以保证 UATI得到更新, 并从源 S-eAN/PCF迁移 eHRPD空 口会话信息, 从而避免已协商的空口会话信息丢失, 这样在切换执行时不用重新协商空口会 话, 以减少切换中断时间。
另外, 本发明实施例中, 终端在进行 eHRPD网络的注册之后, 还可以进行 PPP会话维 护, 具体如下:
当终端接收到 HSGW发来的 PPP会话检测消息时, 如果终端在 LTE网络内, 则不响应 该 PPP会话检测消息。
当 eAN空口会话保活检测超时, 会释放 eHRPD空口会话, 相应地, eAN/PCF会发起主 A10连接释放, 从而触发 HSGW释放 PPP会话。
通常, HSGW把所有用户都当成 Always-on用户 (即永远在线), HSGW 不实现 PPP Session timer会话定时。 HSGW中的 PPP非活动周期 (PPP inactivity timer) 的缺省值为 0, 即 PPP非活动期为无限时长, HSGW不会发起 PPP会话检测。 优选地, PPP非活动周期使用 缺省值 0, 当 PPP非活动周期被配置为非零值时,则当非活动周期达到规定的时间时, HSGW 会发送 LCP Echo Request消息给终端进行 PPP会话检测, 终端收到该 PPP会话检测消息后, 如果终端当前驻留在 LTE网络, 则不返回 LCP Echo Reply响应消息, 从而 HSGW会释放该 PPP会话, 在终端下次切换到 eHRPD网络时重建 PPP。
终端进行 PPP会话维护, 不响应 HSGW的 PPP会话检测, 可以防止由于响应 PPP会话, 而导致给终端建立业务信道,使得网络侧识别终端已经切换到 eHRPD网络,从而发生不必要 的 LTE网络到 eHRPD网络的切换。
本发明实施例中, 进一步地, 当终端完成到 eHRPD网络的注册后, 在未释放 eHRPD空 口连接之前,如果此时恰好终端满足切换到 eHRPD网络的条件,则终端可以利用该未释放的 eHRPD空口连接执行切换流程, 参见图 7, 具体可以包括:
701: 终端完成从 LTE网络到 eHRPD网络的注册, 在未释放 eHRPD空口连接之前, 检 测到终端满足切换到 eHRPD网络的条件, 发送 VSNCP配置请求消息 VSNCP Config-Req给 HSGW, 该消息中的附着类型字段被设置为 "切换附着"(Handover Attach), 触发代理移动 IP隧道的建立。
702: HSGW收到该 VSNCP配置请求消息后, 由于已经存在 eHRPD空口连接, 无需重 新建立 eHRPD空口连接, 以及 UATI更新和建立业务信道, 直接建立代理移动 IP隧道, 并 利用该代理移动 IP隧道完成终端到 eHRPD网络的切换。其中, HSGW建立代理移动 IP隧道 以及终端完成到 eHRPD网络的切换过程, 具体同本发明实施例中的 406〜412, 此处不再赘 述。
本发明实施例方法可以根据实际需要对各个步骤顺序进行调整。
本发明实施例提供的上述方法通过在终端切换到 eHRPD网络之前, 通过 eHRPD空口进 行注册,在发生 LTE到 eHRPD的切换前,完成了 eHRPD空口会话协商、 PPP协商和 EAP-AKA 鉴权, 在切换时只建立 eHRPD空口连接和进行代理移动 IP隧道的切换, 极大地降低了 LTE 网络到 eHRPD网络切换的业务中断时间。 与现有的优化切换相比, 不通过 LTE和 S101隧道 来完成, 极大地降低了网络的复杂性。 而且, 也不需要修改终端的协议栈, 降低了终端的复 杂性。 另外, 在终端完成 eHRPD网络注册后, 终端在 LTE空闲态时, 根据需要进行空口会 话保活和子网变更处理, 可以确保终端不会退出 eHRPD注册状态, 保证了 eHRPD注册的有 效性。 通过优先在 LTE空闲态执行 eHRPD空口会话信息维护, 可以避免对 LTE网络正在进 行的业务产生影响, 提升了服务质量, 改善了用户体验。 参见图 8, 本发明实施例还提供了一种网络切换方法, 具体可以包括:
801: LTE网络侧向终端发送消息, 指示允许终端进行 eHRPD网络的注册;
802:当终端通过 eHRPD空口完成到 eHRPD网络的注册并且决定切换到 eHRPD网络时, eHRPD网络侧建立代理移动 IP隧道, 由代理移动 IP隧道完成终端到 eHRPD网络的切换。
进一步地, 上述方法还可以包括:

进一步地, 上述方法还可以包括:
当终端完成到 eHRPD网络的注册后, eHRPD网络侧的 eAN发送空口会话保活请求消息 给终端;并且 eAN接收终端根据 LTE网络侧的指示和自身的状态返回的空口会话保活响应消 息。
进一步地, 上述方法还可以包括:
当终端完成到 eHRPD网络的注册, 且检测到 eHRPD网络内的子网发生变化后, 终端当 前所在的目标子网的 eAN判断自身是否为子网变化前终端所在的源子网的 eAN, 如果是, 则 eAN给终端分配一个接入终端单播标识 UATI, 否则, 目标子网的 eAN从源子网的 eAN迁移 eHRPD空口会话信息, 并为终端分配一个新的 UATI, 然后发送给终端。
进一步地, 在 eHRPD网络侧建立代理移动 IP隧道之前, 还可以包括:
eHRPD网络侧的 eAN接收终端在 eHRPD网络内发送的连接请求消息;
eAN根据连接请求消息,判断终端的接入终端单播标识中的子网标识是否为自身的标识; 如果是, 则 eAN向终端发送业务信道指配消息, 为终端建立业务信道;
否则, eAN根据接入终端单播标识中的子网标识确定终端的源 eAN, 并从源 eAN获取 终端的空口会话信息, 然后向终端发送接入终端单播标识指配消息和业务信道指配消息, 更 新终端的接入终端单播标识, 并且为终端建立业务信道。
本发明实施例方法可以根据实际需要对各个步骤顺序进行调整。
本发明实施例提供的上述方法通过在终端切换到 eHRPD网络之前, 通过 eHRPD空口进 行注册,在发生 LTE到 eHRPD的切换前,完成了 eHRPD空口会话协商、 PPP协商和 EAP-AKA 鉴权, 在切换时只建立 eHRPD空口连接和进行代理移动 IP隧道的切换, 极大地降低了 LTE 网络到 eHRPD网络切换的业务中断时间。 与现有的优化切换相比, 不通过 LTE和 S101隧道 来完成, 极大地降低了网络的复杂性。 而且, 也不需要修改终端的协议栈, 降低了终端的复 杂性。 另外, 在终端完成 eHRPD网络注册后, 终端在 LTE空闲态时, 根据需要进行空口会 话保活和子网变更处理, 可以确保终端不会退出 eHRPD注册状态, 保证了 eHRPD注册的有 效性。 通过优先在 LTE空闲态执行 eHRPD空口会话信息维护, 可以避免对 LTE网络正在进

本发明实施例提供的上述终端通过在切换到 eHRPD网络之前, 通过 eHRPD空口进行注 册, 在发生 LTE到 eHRPD的切换前, 完成了 eHRPD空口会话协商、 PPP协商和 EAP-AKA 鉴权, 在切换时只建立 eHRPD空口连接和进行代理移动 IP隧道的切换, 极大地降低了 LTE 网络到 eHRPD网络切换的业务中断时间。 与现有的优化切换相比, 不通过 LTE和 S101隧道 来完成, 极大地降低了网络的复杂性。 而且, 也不需要修改终端的协议栈, 降低了终端的复 杂性。 另外, 在终端完成 eHRPD网络注册后, 终端在 LTE空闲态时, 根据需要进行空口会 话保活和子网变更处理, 可以确保终端不会退出 eHRPD注册状态, 保证了 eHRPD注册的有 效性。 通过优先在 LTE空闲态执行 eHRPD空口会话信息维护, 可以避免对 LTE网络正在进 行的业务产生影响, 提升了服务质量, 改善了用户体验。 参见图 10, 本发明实施例还提供了一种基站, 位于 LTE网络, 可以包括:
