Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
The first embodiment,
An embodiment of the present invention provides a link establishment method, applied to a target base station, as shown in fig. 1, including:
step 101: after establishing connection with user equipment, acquiring source link information of a source base station corresponding to the user equipment;
step 102: sending the source link information of the source base station to a core network through the uplink, and establishing the uplink with the core network, so that the core network establishes a downlink with the target base station based on the source link information of the source base station;
step 103: and performing data interaction with a core network through the uplink and the downlink.
Here, in this embodiment, the acquiring source link information of the source base station corresponding to the user equipment includes: acquiring source link information of the source base station from a user equipment side; or obtaining source link information of the source base station from the source base station.
The determination method for establishing connection with the ue may be, by determining whether an RRC connection setup/reconfiguration complete message sent by the ue is received; alternatively, it may be determined to establish a connection with the user equipment for receiving a data message sent by the user equipment.
The scheme provided by the embodiment can be applied to at least two scenes:
and in the first scenario, the UE does not change the gateway.
In this scenario, there may be the following two operation flows:
in a first operation procedure, source link information of the source base station at least includes: internet Protocol (IP) address information, port number of the source base station.
Referring to fig. 2, the first operation flow specifically includes: after the target base station establishes connection with User Equipment (UE), an uplink of the target base station and a core network side is established, and an IP address of a source base station and a port number distributed to the source base station by a gateway are sent to the gateway; the IP address and port number of the source base station may be saved by the UE or the source eNB and then sent to the new eNB. After receiving the data, the gateway automatically establishes or activates a link between the gateway and the source eNB and the new eNB, establishes a downlink on a CN side, and carries out data transmission.
In the second operation procedure, when the target base station directly forwards the data sent by the UE, the source link information is added in the data and sent to the gateway, that is: receiving a first uplink data packet sent by user equipment; adding source link information of the source base station in a preset data bit of the first uplink data packet; and sending the first uplink data packet added with the source link information of the source base station to a core network through the uplink. The preset data bits of the first uplink data packet may be: as shown in fig. 3, in the GTP header of the first uplink data packet or in the data clear core, the GTP data packet header may be 8 bits of data in the first row, where the GTP data packet header may include a version number, a protocol type, an extension header flag, a sequence number flag, and an N-PDU number flag.
The second operation flow can be seen in fig. 4, which specifically includes: after a User Equipment (UE) establishes a connection with a target base station, wherein the target base station can be a new evolved node B (eNB); when transmitting data, the new eNB carries the IP address of the source eNB and the port number of the source eNB to the gateway (SGW) in the GTP Header of the first uplink packet (e.g., Extension Header) of the UE or in the GTP packet, and establishes the CN side uplink. The source eNB IP address and port number may be saved by the UE or the source eNB and sent to the new eNB. After the SGW receives the uplink data, the SGW reads the GTP header or the GTP packet to obtain the IP address of the source eNB and the port number allocated to the source eNB by the SGW, and automatically establishes or activates its link with the source eNB between it and the new eNB. And carrying out data transmission.
And a second scenario is that the UE changes the gateway.
The source link information of the source base station at least comprises: the IP address of the source base station, the Tunnel Endpoint Identifier (TEID) assigned to the source base station by the source gateway GW, and the source GW IP address.
The sending the source link information of the source base station to the core network through the uplink includes: receiving a first uplink data packet sent by user equipment; adding source link information of the source base station in a preset data bit of the first uplink data packet; and sending the first uplink data packet added with the source link information of the source base station to a core network through the uplink.
In this scenario, there are also two operation flows, as shown in fig. 5, the first operation flow includes: after receiving the RRC connection setup/reconfiguration complete message of the UE, the new eNB sends the source eNB IP address and the TEID distributed to the source eNB by the source GW and the source GW IP address to the new SGW, wherein the source eNB and the GW IP address and the source SGW TEID can be sent to the new eNB after the UE or the source eNB is saved; after receiving the source eNB IP address and the source GW TEID message, the new GW sends the CN load configuration information to the source GW, and the source GW replies the CN load configuration information to the new GW; the new GW updates or activates the downlink according to the CN bearing configuration information; and carrying out data transmission.
The second operation flow, as shown in fig. 6, includes: after receiving the uplink data, the new SGW reads a GTP head or a GTP data packet to obtain a source eNB IP address, a source SGW TEID and a source SGW IP address, sends source eNB IP address and source GW TEID information to the source GW to obtain the CN load configuration information, and the source GW replies the CN load configuration information to the new GW; the new SGW updates or activates a downlink according to the CN bearing configuration information; and carrying out downlink data transmission.
Therefore, by adopting the scheme, when the user equipment is accessed to the target base station, the target base station can acquire the source link information between the source base station and the core network, and then the source link information is sent to the core network, so that the core network establishes a downlink with the target base station based on the source link information. Therefore, signaling to be interacted between the target base station and the core network in the process of establishing the link is reduced, so that the delay of establishing the link between the target base station and the core network is reduced, the requirement of low service delay is met, and the use experience of a user is improved.

The source link information of the source base station at least comprises: the IP address information of the source base station and the port number allocated to the source base station by the source gateway. Alternatively, there may be included: the IP address of the source base station, the TEID allocated to the source base station by the source gateway GW, and the IP address of the source GW.

The second operation flow can be seen in fig. 4, which specifically includes: after a User Equipment (UE) establishes a connection with a target base station, wherein the target base station can be a new evolved node B (eNB); when transmitting data, the new eNB carries the IP address of the source eNB and the port number of the source eNB to the gateway in the GTP Header (e.g., Extension Header) of the first uplink packet of the UE or in the GTP packet, and establishes the CN side uplink. The source eNB IP address and port number may be saved by the UE or the source eNB and sent to the new eNB. After the SGW receives the uplink data, the SGW reads the GTP header or the GTP packet to obtain the IP address of the source eNB and the port number allocated to the source eNB by the SGW, and automatically establishes or activates its link with the source eNB between it and the new eNB. And carrying out data transmission.
And a second scenario is that the UE changes the gateway.
The source link information of the source base station at least comprises: the IP address of the source base station, the TEID allocated to the source base station by the source gateway GW, and the IP address of the source GW.
The sending the source link information of the source base station to the core network through the uplink includes: receiving a first uplink data packet sent by user equipment; adding source link information of the source base station in a preset data bit of the first uplink data packet; and sending the first uplink data packet added with the source link information of the source base station to a core network through the uplink.
And the second link management unit is used for establishing or activating a source link with the source base station between the source link and a target base station based on the IP address information of the source base station and the port number allocated to the source base station by the source gateway.
In this scenario, there are also two operation flows, the first operation flow includes: after receiving the RRC connection setup/reconfiguration complete message of the UE, the new eNB sends the source eNB IP address and the TEID distributed to the source eNB by the source GW and the source GW IP address to the new SGW, wherein the source eNB and the GW IP address and the source SGW TEID can be sent to the new eNB after the UE or the source eNB is saved; after receiving the source eNB IP address and the source GW TEID message, the new GW sends the CN load configuration information to the source GW, and the source GW replies the CN load configuration information to the new GW; the new GW updates or activates the downlink according to the CN bearing configuration information; and carrying out data transmission.
A second operational procedure, comprising: after receiving the uplink data, the new SGW reads a GTP head or a GTP data packet to obtain a source eNB IP address, a source SGW TEID and a source SGW IP address, sends source eNB IP address and source GW TEID information to the source GW to obtain the CN load configuration information, and the source GW replies the CN load configuration information to the new GW; the new SGW updates or activates a downlink according to the CN bearing configuration information; and carrying out downlink data transmission.
Therefore, by adopting the scheme, when the user equipment is accessed to the target base station, the target base station can acquire the source link information between the source base station and the core network, and then the source link information is sent to the core network, so that the core network establishes a downlink with the target base station based on the source link information. Therefore, signaling to be interacted between the target base station and the core network in the process of establishing the link is reduced, so that the delay of establishing the link between the target base station and the core network is reduced, the requirement of low service delay is met, and the use experience of a user is improved.
