DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, with examples thereof represented in the accompanying drawings. When the following description involves the accompanying drawings, the same numerals in different figures represent the same or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated. Implementations described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all implementations consistent with embodiments of the present disclosure. On the contrary, they are only examples of apparatuses and methods that are consistent with some aspects of embodiments of the present disclosure as detailed in the attached claims.


Terms used in the embodiments of the present disclosure are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present disclosure. Singular forms, “a/an” and “the,” used in the embodiments and the appended claims of the present disclosure are also intended to include majority forms, unless the context clearly indicates other meanings. It should also be understood that the term “and/or” used herein refers to and includes any or all possible combinations of one or more related listed items.


It should be understood that although terms, such as “first,” “second,” “third,” etc., may be used in the embodiments of the present disclosure to describe various information, such information should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish a same type of information from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of the embodiments of the present disclosure, first information may also be referred to as second information, and similarly, the second information may also be referred to as the first information. Depending on the context, the term “if” used herein may be interpreted as “when,” “while,” or “in response to determining.”


When a user has a query requirement, the user often cannot obtain target information or needs to pay more cost to obtain the target information, for example, a sales phone number of a certain product, an outpatient phone number of a certain hospital, an ordering phone number of a certain restaurant, etc., which cannot meet the user requirement in time and also brings great inconvenience. In addition, when commercial customers put in commercial advertisement information, they need to take both cost and coverage into account; the commercial advertisement information often has limited coverage, and cannot respond to a real-time product requirement of the user in time, which causes potential loss.


Referring to FIG. 1, FIG. 1 shows a schematic structural diagram of a wireless communication system provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the wireless communication system is a cellular mobile communication technology-based communication system, and the wireless communication system may include several user equipment 110 and several base stations 120.

As shown in FIG. 2, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method, executed by a network device, and including the following steps S21-S23.


At step S21, request information is received; where the request information includes identification information of UE.


At step S22, whether the UE has an authorized subscription service is determined, based on the identification information.


At step S23, in response to determining that the UE has the authorized subscription service, requested target information is sent to the UE; where the target information includes target subscription information requested by the request information.


In an embodiment, the network device may be a core network device. The core network device may be one of various function network elements. For example, the network device may be but is not limited to an access and mobility management function (AMF) network element, an authorized subscription management function (ASMF) network element, a unified data management (UDM) network element, or the like.


In another embodiment, the network device may also be an access network device. The access network device may be one of various base stations. For example, the base station may be a 4G base station, a 5G base station, another evolved base station, or the like. When the network device is a base station, the base station receives information sent by the UE and forwards the information to a core network device; or the base station receives information sent by the core network device and forwards the information to the UE.


In an embodiment, the UE may be one of various types of UE. For example, the UE may be but is not limited to a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a wearable device, a smart home device, a smart office device, a wearable device, a game control platform, a multimedia device, or the like.


Receiving request information in the step S21 may include: receiving, by the network device, the request information sent by the UE. For example, the base station receives the request information sent by the UE, and forwards the request information to a core network device, such as an AMF network element.


The identification information of the UE may be to uniquely identify the UE.


In an embodiment, the identification information of the UE may be to determine whether the UE has an authorized service. In another embodiment, the identification information of the UE may be further to request target subscription information of the UE.


Determining whether the UE has an authorized subscription service in the step S22 includes:

    • determining whether the UE subscribes to the authorized subscription service; or
    • and/or,
    • determining whether the UE is authorized to use the authorized subscription service.


The embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method that is executed by a network device. The method may include: determining whether the UE has an authorized subscription service based on identification information of the UE.


Exemplarily, the AMF network element receives request information sent by the base station, where the request information carries identification information of the UE; and the AMF network element determines, based on the identification information of the UE, whether the UE subscribes to an authorized subscription service and/or whether the UE is authorized to use the authorized subscription service, where the request information is sent by the UE to the base station.


Exemplarily, the ASMF network element receives request information sent by the ASMF network element, where the request information carries identification information of the UE; and the ASMF network element determines, based on the identification information of the UE, whether the UE subscribes to an authorized subscription service and/or whether the UE is authorized to use the authorized subscription service.


Exemplarily, the UDM network element receives request information sent by the AMF network element, where the request information carries identification information of the UE; and the UDM network element determines, based on the identification information of the UE, whether the UE subscribes to an authorized subscription service and/or whether the UE is authorized to use the authorized subscription service.


The request information may be for the network device to determine the target subscription information.


In an embodiment, the target subscription information may include authorized subscription information of at least one UE.


In another embodiment, the target subscription information may include one or more sets of authorized subscription information, where one set of authorized subscription information includes authorized subscription information of one or more UE.


In an embodiment, the target subscription information may be but is not limited to at least one of: a phone number, a user name, a user account number, a company name, a company account number, a company employee name, and a teacher in school at a certain time period.


In an embodiment, the request information includes condition information. The condition information may be for the network device to determine a part or all of the target subscription information.


In an embodiment, the condition information may be to determine a part or all of the target subscription information indicated by the condition information. For example, if the condition information indicates a phone number, the target subscription information determined according to the condition information is the phone number. For another example, if the condition information indicates a name of a professor from a certain university in 2021, the target subscription information determined according to the condition information is the name of the professor from the certain university in 2021.


In an embodiment, the target information may include a part or all of the target subscription information requested by the request information.


In another embodiment, the target information may further include identification information of the UE. For example, if the target information includes the target subscription information and the identification information of the UE, the network device may return the target subscription information to the UE corresponding to the identification information.


Sending the requested target information to the UE in the step S23 may include: sending, by the AMF network element, the requested target information to the UE; or sending, by the ASMF network element, the requested target information to the UE; or sending, by the UDM network element, the requested target information to the UE. Here, when sending the requested target information to the UE, the ASMF network element or the UDM network element may send the target information to the AMF network element, and the AMF network element forwards the target information. Sending or forwarding, by the AMF network element, the target information may include: sending, by the AMF network element, the target information to the base station, and forwarding, by the base station, the target information to the UE.


In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the network device may receive the request information including the identification information of the UE, determine, based on the identification information, whether the UE has an authorized subscription service, and when determining that the UE has the authorized subscription service, send target information to the UE, where the target information includes target subscription information requested by the request information. Therefore, when the UE has the authorized subscription service, at least part of the target subscription information may be opened, such that the UE may query the target subscription information. On one hand, requirements such as query of the UE, etc., are facilitated, such that requirements such as life requirements of the users, business requirements, etc., are met; and on the other hand, business operators putting in information etc., are facilitated to promote the put-in information, which may respond to the user requirements in time.


In addition to obtaining information by using manners, such as an application program (APP), etc., a risk of information leakage may also be reduced and information may be updated in time to improve the user experience in the embodiment of the present disclosure. Since a user may not need to provide a telephone number when the user is registered in the APP, an authenticity of the registered user is low, and the risk of the information leakage is increased. However, registration is executed by using UE and the target subscription information is obtained only when determining that the UE has the authorized subscription service, which greatly increases security. When the user is registered in the APP, an update of the information cannot be maintained in time, for example, phone shutdown or number change may cause the information of the registered user to be lost. However, the registration is executed by using the UE, which may be based on the identification information of the UE and does not exist the situation of the phone shutdown or number change, such that occurrence of the situation that the information is lost based on UE registration is reduced, and the user experience is improved.


An embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method, executed by a network device. The method may include:

    • receiving request information; where the request information includes identification information of UE and condition information; and
    • sending target information to the UE based on the condition information and the identification information, where the target information includes target subscription information indicated by the condition information.


The request information is to request the target subscription information.


The request information is sent by the UE determining that the UE has an authorized subscription service.


Therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the network device also may not execute a check for the authorized subscription service of the UE, and may directly default that the UE has the authorized subscription service; and after receiving the request information, the network device sends to the UE the requested target subscription information that is indicated by the condition information in the request information.


Technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure may include the following beneficial effects.


In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the network device (for example, an AMF network element, an ASMF network element, or a UDM network element) may receive the request information including the identification information of the UE, determine, based on the identification information, whether the UE has an authorized subscription service, and when determining that the UE has the authorized subscription service, send target information to the UE, where the target information includes target subscription information requested by the request information.


Therefore, when the UE has the authorized subscription service, at least part of the target subscription information may be opened, such that the UE may query the target subscription information. Therefore, on one hand, requirements such as query of the UE, etc., are facilitated, such that requirements such as life requirements of the users, business requirements, etc., are met; and on the other hand, business operators putting in information etc., are facilitated to promote the put-in information, which may respond to the user requirements in time.


The step S21 may include any one of:

    • receiving a registration request message carrying the request information; or
    • receiving a service request message carrying the request information.


The information processing method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is executed by the network device and may include: receiving a registration request message carrying the request information, or receiving a service request message carrying the request information.


For example, the network device receives a registration request message sent by the UE, where the registration request message carries the request information, or the network device receives a service request message sent by the UE, where the service request message carries the request information.


Therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the request information may be sent by a registration request message or a service request message sent by the UE, such that the network device obtains the request information based on the received registration request message or service request message. Therefore, two functions, a registration request and a target subscription information request of the authorized subscription service of the UE, may be implemented by a registration request message, or two functions, a service request and the target subscription information request of the authorized subscription service of the UE may be implemented by a service request message, such that a utilization ratio of the registration request message or service request message may be improved, transmission of signaling may be reduced, and then power consumption between the UE and network device may be reduced.


Of course, in other embodiments, the request information may also be carried and be sent through any other realizable message or signaling, which is not limited herein.


It should be noted that those skilled in the art may understand that any method provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be executed separately, or may be executed together with some methods in the embodiments of the present disclosure or some methods in related technologies.


The following information processing method is executed by the AMF network element, and is similar to the description of the above information processing method executed by the network device. Technical details that are not disclosed in the embodiment of the information processing method executed by the AMF network element, refer to the description of the example of the information processing method executed by the network device, which are not described herein in detail.


As shown in FIG. 3, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method, executed by the AMF network element, and including the following steps S31-S33.


At step S31, request information sent by UE is received; where the request information includes identification information of the UE.


At step S32, whether the UE has an authorized subscription service is determined, based on the identification information.


At step S33, in response to determining that the UE has the authorized subscription service, requested target information is sent to the UE; where the target information includes target subscription information requested by the request information.


In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the request information is the request information in the step 21, the identification information is the identification information in the step S21, the target information is the target information in the step S23, and the target subscription information is the target subscription information in the step S23.


Receiving the request information sent by the UE in the step S31 includes: sending, by the UE, the request information of the UE to the base station, and receiving, by the AMF network element, the request information of the UE forwarded by the base station.


Determining whether the UE has an authorized subscription service in the step S32 includes:

    • determining whether the UE subscribes to the authorized subscription service; or and/or,
    • determining whether the UE is authorized to use the authorized subscription service.


The embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method that is executed by the AMF network element. The method may include: determining whether the UE has an authorized subscription service based on the identification information of the UE.


In an embodiment, the request information includes condition information. The condition information may be for the AMF network element to determine at least part of the target subscription information. The at least part of the target subscription information is a part of the target subscription information or all of the target subscription information.


In an embodiment, the target information may include a part or all of the target subscription information requested by the request information.


In another embodiment, the target information may further include the identification information of the UE. For example, if the target information includes the target subscription information and the identification information of the UE, the network device may return the target subscription information to the UE corresponding to the identification information.


The step S31 may include any one of:

    • receiving a registration request message sent by the UE and carrying the request information; or
    • receiving a service request message sent by the UE and carrying the request information.


The information processing method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is executed by the AMF network element and includes any one of:

    • receiving a registration request message sent by the UE and carrying the request information; or
    • receiving a service request message sent by the UE and carrying the request information.


Therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the AMF network element may receive the request information including the identification information of the UE, determine, based on the identification information, whether the UE has an authorized subscription service, and when determining that the UE has the authorized subscription service, send to the UE the target information including the target subscription information requested by the request information. Therefore, when the UE has the authorized subscription service, at least part of the target subscription information may be opened, such that the UE may query the target subscription information. On one hand, requirements such as query of the UE, etc., are facilitated, such that requirements such as life requirements of the users, business requirements, etc., are met; and on the other hand, business operators putting in information etc., are facilitated to promote the put-in information, which may respond to the user requirements in time.


In addition, two functions, a registration request and a target subscription information request of the authorized subscription service of the UE, may be implemented by a registration request message, or two functions, a service request and the target subscription information request of the authorized subscription service of the UE may be implemented by a service request message, such that a utilization ratio of the registration request message or service request message may be improved, transmission of signaling may be reduced, and then power consumption between the UE and network device may be reduced.


An embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method that is executed by an AMF network element and may include: sending request information to an ASMF network element or a UDM network element.


The step S32 may include: querying authorized management information of the UDM network element based on the identification information, to determine whether the UE has the authorized subscription service.


As shown in FIG. 4, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method that is executed by the AMF network element and may include the following step S41.


At step S41, authorized management information of the UDM network element is queried based on the identification information, to determine whether the UE has the authorized subscription service.


In some embodiments of the present disclosure, determining whether the UE has the authorized subscription service in the step S41 includes: determining whether the UE subscribes to the authorized subscription service, and/or whether the UE is authorized to use the authorized subscription service.


In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the authorized management information includes: identification information of at least one UE and authorized subscription information corresponding to the identification information; where the authorized subscription information includes: whether the UE subscribes to the authorized subscription service and/or whether the UE is authorized to use the authorized subscription service.


Exemplarily, the AMF network element receives request information forwarded by the base station, where the request information includes the identification information of the UE; and the AMF network element queries the authorized management information of the UDM network element to determine whether the UE has the authorized subscription service. Here, a manner for the AMF network element to query the authorized management information of the UDM network element is that: the AMF network element sends a query request carrying the identification information of the UE to the UDM network element; the UDM network element determines whether the UE has an authorized management service based on the identification information of the UE and the authorized management information, and returns a query result of whether the UE has the authorized management service to the AMF network element; and the AMF network element determines whether the UE has the authorized subscription service based on the received query result.


Therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, whether the UE has the authorized subscription service may be determined, based on the AMF network element, which may be adapted to a scenario in which the AMF network element executes an authorization check.


As shown in FIG. 5, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method that is executed by the AMF network element and may include the following step S51.


At step S51, the target subscription information requested by the request information is obtained.


The step S51 may include: obtaining, based on the request information, the target subscription information requested by the request information from a unified data repository (UDR).


The embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method that is executed by the AMF network element and may include: obtaining the target subscription information requested by the request information from a UDR based on the request information.


Exemplarily, if the AMF network element receives the request information sent by the base station, the AMF network element obtains, from the UDR, the target subscription information requested by the request information. For example, in a manner, the AMF network element may obtain all or a part of the target subscription information based on the request information. For another example, in another manner, the AMF network element may obtain the target subscription information of the UE based on the identification information of the UE carried in the request information. For another example, in another manner, the AMF network element may obtain the target subscription information indicated by the condition information of the UE based on the condition information carried in the request information.


Therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the target subscription information requested by the request information may be retrieved from the UDR based on the AMF network element.


The embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method that is executed by the AMF network element and may include: if determining that UE has the authorized subscription service, obtaining the target subscription information requested by the request information from a UDR based on the request information. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the AMF network element may obtain the target subscription information from the UDR only when the UE has the authorized subscription service, which may thereby reduce a risk of leaking the target subscription information and improve the security of the target subscription information.


The step S51 may include: sending the request information to an ASMF network element; and receiving the target subscription information that is returned by the ASMF network element based on the request information.


An embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method, executed by the AMF network element. The method may include:

    • sending the request information to an ASMF network element; and
    • receiving the target subscription information that is returned by the ASMF network element based on the request information.


Exemplarily, after receiving the request information, the AMF network element sends the request information to the ASMF network element; the ASMF network element determines target subscription information based on the request information, and sends the target subscription information to the AMF network element; and the AMF network element receives the target subscription information returned by the ASMF network element.


Therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the AMF network element may send the request information to the ASMF network element, to obtain the target subscription information by receiving the target subscription information returned by the ASMF network element based on the request information. Therefore, multiple manners to obtain the target subscription information on a side of the AMF network element are provided.


In some embodiments, sending the request information to the ASMF network element includes: in response to determining that the UE has the authorized subscription service, sending the request information to the ASMF network element.


An embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method that is executed by the AMF network element and may include: in response to determining that the UE has the authorized subscription service, sending the request information to the ASMF network element. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, only when the UE has the authorized subscription service, the AMF network element sends the request information to the ASMF network element, and then obtains the target subscription information that is determined by the UDM network element based on the request information, which may thereby reduce a risk of leaking the target subscription information and improve the security of the target subscription information.


The step S51 may include: sending the request information to a UDM network element; and receiving the target subscription information that is returned by the UDM network element based on the request information.
