Embodiments of the present invention relate to a communication field, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for determining a source general packet radio service (GPRS, General Packet Radio Service) serving support node (SGSN, Serving GPRS Support Node).
In the prior art, a user equipment (User Equipment, UE) reports a network resource identifier (Network Resource Identifier, NRI) to a radio network controller (Radio Network Controller, RNC) in an initial direct transfer message which is used for sending a routing area update (Routing Area Update, RAU) request message; then, the RNC reports a routing area identifier (Routing Area Identifier, RAI) and the NRI to a mobile switching center (Mobile Switching Center, MSC); and finally, the MSC sends them to a target mobility management entity (Mobility Management Entity, MME) or a target SGSN, so that the target MME or the target SGSN determines, according to the RAI and the NRI, a source SGSN where the UE is located, and obtains a context of the UE from the source SGSN.
When the RNC initiates a reverse single radio voice continuity (Reverse Single Radio Voice Call Continuity, SRVCC) handover (in other word, a handover from a circuit switched domain (Circuit Switched Domain, CS domain) to a packet switched domain (Packet Switched Domain, PS domain), normally the RAI and NRI reported by the UE are sent to the MSC in a relocation required (Relocation Required) message. In the reverse SRVCC handover process, the target MME or the target SGSN obtains the context of the UE from the SGSN where the UE is located.
Generally, addressing information of an SGSN may use an RAI FQDN structure, e.g., <NRI>.<RAC>.<LAC>.<MNC>.<MCC>.3gppnetwork.org. Evidently, the addressing information includes RAI, NRI, and the like, so that the target MME or the target SGSN may be connected, by using the above addressing information, to the source SGSN where the UE is located. The RAI consists of a mobile country code (Mobile Country Code, MCC), a mobile network code (Mobile Network Code, MNC), a location area code (Location Area Code, LAC), and a routing area code (Routing Area Code, RAC).
However, after a UE initiates a CS call (such as a voice call), if the UE supports a reverse SRVCC handover, the UE will initiates an RAU process when an RNC initiates a reverse SRVCC handover, so that the RNC may obtain an NRI of the UE from an initial direct transfer message (such as an RAU request message), and ensure that an RAI of the UE and an RAI of a cell where the UE is located are consistent. When the RNC initiates the reverse SRVCC handover, the RAI and the NRI are carried in a relocation required message and are sent to an MSC, and then the MSC sends them to a target MME or a target SGSN. When the RNC fails to be connected to a source SGSN, the RNC will select another SGSN; therefore, the NRI reported by the UE is invalid. If the UE is in a CS connected state, after a inter-RNC handover of the UE, the UE initiates an RAU process after the handover, and sends an RAU request message through an uplink direct transfer (Direct Transfer) message, thereby ensuring an RAI of the UE and an RAI of a cell where the UE is located are consistent. However, the uplink direct transfer message does not include an NRI. When an SGSN where the UE is located is changed, the RNC still cannot obtain addressing information of a new source SGSN.
Or if a UE is in a PS connected state, after a inter-SGSN handover of the UE, if an RAI is changed, under the circumstances that the RNC does not inform the UE of a new RAI, the RNC cannot obtain an RAI of a source SGSN where the UE is located after the handover. Even if the RNC notifies the RAI change to the UE, because the RAI is changed, the UE will initiate an RAU process after receiving the notification, so that the UE obtains a new RAI. However, when the SGSN where the UE is located is changed, the UE uses an UPLINK DIRECT TRANSFER message to send an RAU request, where the message does not carry an NRI. Even if an NRI is carried, it is also possible that the RNC cannot select an SGSN indicated by the NRI, that is, the NRI is changed. Therefore, the RNC still cannot obtain addressing information of a new source SGSN.

Apparently, the accompanying drawings in the following description show merely some embodiments of the present invention, and persons of ordinary skill in the art may still derive other drawings from these accompanying drawings without creative efforts.
The following clearly and describes the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Apparently, the described embodiments are merely a part rather than all of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The technical solutions of the present invention maybe applied to various communication systems, such as GSM, code division multiple access (CDMA, Code Division Multiple Access), wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA, Wideband Code Division Multiple Access Wireless), general packet radio service (GPRS, General Packet Radio Service), long term evolution (LTE, Long Term Evolution), and the like.
A user equipment (UE, User Equipment), which may also be referred to as a mobile terminal (Mobile Terminal), a mobile user equipment, and the like, may communicate with one or more core networks through a radio access network (for example, RAN, Radio Access Network). The user equipment may be a mobile terminal, such as a mobile phone (which may also be referred to as a “cell” phone), a computer having a mobile terminal, for example, a portable, pocket-sized, handheld, computer built-in, or vehicle-mounted mobile device, which exchanges voice and/or data with a radio access network.
A base station may be a base station (BTS, Base Transceiver Station) in GSM or CDMA, a base station (NodeB) in WCDMA, or an evolved base station (eNB, or e-NodeB, evolutional Node B) in LTE, which is not limited in the present invention. However, for the convenience of description, the following embodiments are described by using a Node B as an example.
A method for determining a source SGSN according to embodiments of the present invention is described in the following with reference to the accompanying drawings. Addressing information of a source SGSN mentioned in the following may be at least one: an NRI (or a packet temporary mobile subscriber identity (Packet-Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity, P-TMSI), an RAI (or an RAC), a global core network identity (Global CN-ID), or an Internet Protocol (Internet Protocol, IP) address of a source SGSN in a core network (Core Network, CN).
A source SGSN refers to an SGSN where a context of a UE is located. For example, after a inter-SGSN handover, a target SGSN becomes a source SGSN of a UE. The target SGSN normally is a target SGSN for a handover, and in this case, addressing information of a source SGSN stored on the UE is still addressing information of a source SGSN before the handover.
In
11. An MSC obtains addressing information of a source SGSN through a NAS message sent by a UE.
Generally, in a CS call setup process, after a CS call is set up, or after an SGSN is changed after movement, a UE may actively report addressing information of a source SGSN.
In this case, the UE may send the addressing information of the source SGSN where the UE is located in carried in a NAS message to an MSC. For example, a message such as a service request (Service Request) maybe used to carry the addressing information of the source SGSN to the MSC.
Because the UE can always obtain the addressing information of the source SGSN where it is located, it is considered that after a UE is moved, in other word, in cases that an SGSN where the UE is located is changed, the UE actively reports the addressing information of the source SGSN where the UE is located directly to the MSC through a NAS message, and the MSC sends the addressing information of the source SGSN to a target MME or a target SGSN. When the MSC receives only an RAC, the MSC may use an LAI of a CS domain and the RAC to form an RAI, and then send the RAI together with an NRI (or a P-TMSI) to the target MME or the target SGSN. Further, the UE may determine that the SGSN is changed according to one or more of a P-TMSI change, an NRI change, and an RAI change.
Optionally, before obtaining the addressing information of the source SGSN through the NAS message sent by the UE, the MSC may also request the UE to report the addressing information of the source SGSN.
Normally, after the MSC receives a reverse SRVCC handover request or an SRVCC preparation handover request, or in a CS call setup process, or after a CS call is set up, or after an SGSN handover occurs, the MSC may actively obtain addressing information of the source SGSN from the UE.
For example, when an RNC initiates a reverse SRVCC handover, that is, when an MSC receives a reverse SRVCC handover request sent by the RNC, or when an MSC receives a reverse handover preparation request sent by the RNC, or before the RNC initiates an reverse SRVCC handover (including in a CS call setup process, after a CS call is set up, or after a handover occurs), the MSC sends an SGSN information report request to a UE, thereby requesting the UE to actively report addressing information of an SGSN where the UE is located to the MSC through a NAS message.
12. The MSC sends the addressing information of the source SGSN to a target MME or a target SGSN, so that the target MME or the target SGSN determines the source SGSN according to the addressing information of the source SGSN.
Based on the above description, the method for determining a source SGSN according to an embodiment of the present invention may ensure that an MSC obtains latest addressing information of a source SGSN of a UE, so that a target MME or a target SGSN obtains prepare bearer information of the UE from a correct source SGSN.
A manner how an MSC obtains addressing information of a source SGSN directly from a UE is described above. The following further analyzes a manner how an MSC obtains addressing information of a source SGSN from an RNC with reference to 2 scenarios. Addressing information obtained by an RNC may only be an NRI or a P-TMSI, or an NRI (or a P-TMSI) and an RAI (or an RAC). The RNC needs to obtain addressing information of a source SGSN where voice bearer information of a UE is located, and then informs an MSC of the addressing information; upon receipt, the MSC stores or updates the addressing information of the source SGSN, and informs an MME of the addressing information, so that the MME may obtain a PDP context from the source SGSN.
As shown in
21. An MSC obtains addressing information of a source SGSN from an RNC.
That is, the RNC obtains the addressing information of the source SGSN first, and then the MSC receives the addressing information of the source SGSN sent by the RNC.
The RNC obtains the addressing information of the source SGSN in the following manners: the RNC receives addressing information of a target SGSN carried in a relocation request message sent by the target SGSN in a relocation process; the RNC receives addressing information of a source SGSN carried in a common identity (Common ID) or a direct transfer message sent by the source SGSN; or the RNC receives the addressing information of the source SGSN carried in an uplink direct transfer message or a cell update message sent by a UE; or the RNC obtains the addressing information of the source SGSN from a local SGSN information table after the RNC and the SGSN establish a signaling connection for a UE; or a UE sends the addressing information of the source SGSN carried in an initial direct transfer message. The initial direct transfer message specifically further allows, besides carrying addressing information of a core network of a CS domain, carrying addressing information of an SGSN of a PS domain.
Specifically, the RNC, when initiating a reverse SRVCC handover, sends the addressing information of the source SGSN carried in a relocation required (Relocation Required) message to the MSC. Alternatively, the RNC, when receiving addressing information of an initial SGSN sent by a UE, obtains addressing information of an SGSN to which a current context of the UE belongs from the SGSN after the handover, or obtains addressing information of a current SGSN from the SGSN after the RNC and the SGSN establish a connection for a UE, and then immediately sends the addressing information to the MSC.
22. The MSC sends the addressing information of the source SGSN to a target MME or a target SGSN, so that the target MME or the target SGSN determines the source SGSN according to the addressing information of the source SGSN.
Based on the above description, the method for determining a source SGSN according to an embodiment of the present invention may ensure that an MSC obtains latest addressing information of a source SGSN of a UE, so that a target MME or a target SGSN obtains prepare bearer information of the UE from a correct source SGSN.
Scenario 1: A UE Initiates a CS Call
A UE sends a NAS message to a network through an initial direct transfer message or an uplink direct transfer message. In this case, addressing information of a source SGSN where the UE is located is carried in the initial direct transfer or the uplink direct transfer RRC message.
For example, when a UE initiates a CS call, the UE sends a NAS message through an initial direct transfer message to an RNC; or after a UE sets up a CS call, the UE sends a NAS message through an uplink direct transfer message to an RNC. Addressing information of a source SGSN where the UE is located is carried in an access stratum (Access Stratum, AS) message (such as an initial direct transfer or an uplink direct transfer RRC message) bearing a NAS message.
For example, after a UE sets up a CS call, when the UE and a source SGSN establish a signaling connection, the source SGSN carries addressing information of the source SGSN in a radio access network application part (Radio Access Network Application Part, RANAP) message such as a downlink direct transfer message or a common identity. The UE may establish the signaling connection with the source SGSN by initiating an RAU request, or an attach (Attach) request, or a packet data protocol (Packet Data Protocol, PDP) activation request, and the like. It should be noted that if it is unnecessary for the UE to initiate a NAS message after setting up the CS call, the UE may be forced to initiate an RAU process.
Scenario 2: A UE Moves, and an RAU Process or RNC Relocation Occurs
After a UE sets up a CS call, the UE is in a PS idle state; when a inter-RNC handover occurs on the UE, a source RNC may transfer addressing information of a source SGSN to a target RNC in a handover process. For example, the addressing information may be sent to the target RNC carried in an enhanced handover request message or a source RNC to target RNC transparent container. After the handover, if an SGSN of the UE is not changed, the RNC continues to use the source RNC to send the obtained addressing information of the source SGSN.
If, after the inter-RNC handover, the UE initiates an RAU process, the UE sends an RAU request to the target RNC through an initial direct transfer message; the target RNC sends the RAU request through an uplink direct transfer message; a target SGSN, upon receipt of an initial UE message provided by the target RNC, sends addressing information of a SGSN to the target RNC through a common identity. Then, the source SGSN successfully obtains a context of the UE from a source SGSN before the handover, and sends an RAU accept message to the UE. The source SGSN may send the addressing information of the source SGSN to the target RNC in an RANAP downlink direct transfer message which sends the RAU accept (accept); or the source SGSN sends the addressing information of the source SGSN to the target RNC through a downlink direct transfer message after determining that RAU is complete; or after the target RNC and the source SGSN establish a connection for the UE, the target RNC obtains the addressing information of the source SGSN from a local SGSN information table. The target RNC performs updating by using the addressing information of the source SGSN.
Optionally, after a handover, the UE is forced to initiate an RAU process, so that the RNC establishes a connection with an SGSN which may be changed, thereby enabling the source SGSN after the change to deliver addressing information to the target RNC.
The UE, after receiving the downlink direct transfer message of RAU accept from the target RNC, sends RAU process completion to the source SGSN through an uplink direct transfer message, and may carry addressing information of the new source SGSN in the uplink direct transfer message, so that the RNC carries the addressing information to an MSC in a relocation required message.
Scenario 2: A Inter-SGSN Handover Occurs on a UE
If a UE is in a PS connected state, and if a inter-SGSN handover occurs, a target RNC obtains latest addressing information from a target SGSN after the handover. In other word, the target SGSN delivers latest addressing information of a source SGSN to the target RNC through an RANAP message such as a relocation required message or a direct transfer message. Specifically, the target SGSN delivers the latest addressing information of the SGSN to the target RNC through a relocation required message in the handover process, or the SGSN delivers the latest addressing information of the source SGSN to the target RNC through a direct transfer message after the handover process.
Scenario 3: A UE Initiates a Cell Update Process
When a UE reselects a cell, a cell update process is triggered after the cell reselection. Information about a source SGSN is carried by the UE in a cell update message, received by a target RNC and sent to a source RNC (serving RNC), and then sent by the source RNC to an MSC in a handover request. In this case, it is unnecessary for the MSC to initiate a process of obtaining the information about the source SGSN from the UE. The information about the source SGSN received from the source RNC is directly used. The information about the source SGSN is carried for a target PS core network node in a reverse handover request handover message, and a subsequent reverse handover process is continued.
Optionally, the UE, when it is determined that reverse SRVCC handover capability is supported or it is possible that a reverse handover may be initiated or after a radio link fails, carries information about the source SGSN in the cell update message. Further, the UE determines that a CS voice is in use before the cell update.
Optionally, the information about the source SGSN is carried in the handover request message when the source RNC determines to initiate a reverse handover.
A scenario for triggering cell reselection is performing cell reselection after a radio link failure occurs or in a cell forward access channel CELL_FACH state.
By using the method of the scenario 3, the problem that an MSC cannot request a UE to send addressing information of a source SGSN through a NAS message in a reverse handover process triggered by the UE in cell update may be solved. Because before a cell update acknowledgment is received, a signaling bearer bearing a NAS message is not set up, no NAS message can be received.
By using the above method, after the RNC obtains the latest addressing information of the source SGSN, the RNC informs the MSC of the addressing information.
For example, the RNC may, when initiating a reverse SRVCC handover, send the latest addressing information of the source SGSN carried in a relocation required message to the MSC. For another example, when the RNC receives addressing information of an initial source SGSN sent by the UE or after obtaining the latest addressing information of the source SGSN of the UE from the new source SGSN, the RNC sends the latest addressing information of the source SGSN carried in a direct transfer message to the MSC.
The addressing information sent by the RNC to the MSC may be information obtained by performing combination processing or extraction on information received from an SGSN or a UE and local information.
The MSC, when receiving the latest addressing information of the source SGSN sent by the RNC, updates to the latest addressing information of the source SGSN.
Based on the above description, a method for determining a source SGSN on a UE side and on an RNC side according to embodiments of the present invention may be summarized.
In
31. A UE obtains addressing information of a source SGSN.
Optionally, before obtaining the addressing information of the source SGSN, the UE receives a report request sent by an MSC for sending the addressing information of the source SGSN.
32. The UE sends the addressing information of the source SGSN to an MSC through a NAS message, or sends the addressing information of the source SGSN to an RNC through a direct transfer message or a cell update message.
In
41. An RNC obtains addressing information of a source SGSN.
Specifically, a target RNC receives addressing information of a target SGSN carried in a relocation required message sent by the target SGSN in a relocation process; or receives the addressing information of the source SGSN carried in a common identity or a direct transfer message sent by a target SGSN; or receives the addressing information of the source SGSN carried in a direct transfer message or a cell update message sent by a UE.
When a cell update message triggers a inter-RNC relocation process, the target RNC sends an uplink signaling transfer indication message to a source RNC, thereby forwarding the received cell update message to the source RNC. The source RNC, when determining to initiate a reverse handover, puts the received addressing information of the source SGSN in a relocation required message to send the relocation required message to the MSC. Optionally, the target RNC extracts, after receiving the cell update message, the addressing information of the source SGSN, and sends the addressing information of the source SGSN to the source RNC in an uplink signaling transfer indication message.
42. The RNC sends the addressing information of the source SGSN to an MSC.
For example, the RNC sends the addressing information of the source SGSN to the MSC through a relocation required message or a direct transfer message
Based on the above description, the method for determining a source SGSN according to an embodiment of the present invention may ensure that an MSC obtains latest addressing information of a source SGSN of a UE, so that a target MME or a target SGSN obtains prepare bearer information of the UE from a correct source SGSN.
The solution for an MSC to obtain addressing information of a source SGSN from a UE and the solution of obtaining the addressing information from an RNC may be used together. For example, a UE reports addressing information of a source SGSN to an MSC through a NAS message first; after an SGSN to which the UE belongs is changed, the UE or the RNC then reports addressing information of an SGSN after the change to the MSC.

The third sending unit 82 is configured to send the addressing information of the source SGSN to an MSC. Further, the third sending unit 82 may be configured to send the addressing information of the source SGSN carried in a relocation required message or a direct transfer message to the MSC.
The apparatus 50 or 60 for determining a source SGSN may be an MSC, the apparatus 60 for determining a source SGSN may be a UE, and the apparatus 70 for determining a source SGSN may be an RNC.
Based on the above description, the apparatus for determining a source SGSN according to an embodiment of the present invention may ensure that an MSC obtains latest addressing information of a source SGSN of a UE, so that a target MME or a target SGSN obtains prepare bearer information of the UE from a correct source SGSN.
