The method to set up of the value of terminal access timer and system
Technical field
The present invention relates to the communications field, relate in particular to the method to set up and the system of the value of terminal access timer.
Background technology
Agreement has been stipulated subscriber equipment (user equipment, abbreviate UE as) when being attached to network, network is adhering to response (ATTACH ACCEPT) or periodically can carry periodical location area timer (T3412) in the response message (TRACKINGAREA UPDATE ACCEPT), and network side also can be safeguarded a terminal access timer (mobile reachable timer).The value of these two timers all is that operator can join.But under the default situations, for the UE that normally adheres to, the periodical location area that the terminal access timer of network side is safeguarded than UE side upgraded timer long 4 minutes.When the cycle of UE was upgraded timer expiry, UE will initiate the periodical location area renewal process.If mobile management entity behind the terminal access timer expiry (mobility management entity abbreviates MME as) is not also received the periodical location area renewal process of UE, MME will start the attachment removal timer.
Particularly, the periodical location area renewal process is the accessibility that is used for to network notice UE.This process is that the periodical location area that the UE side is preserved upgrades timer control.The value of T3412 is carried in adhering to response or location area updating response message by network and is sent to UE.UE will use this timer value in all position area lists that distribute, till receiving new timer value.
When UE is not an emergency attached when arriving network, behind the T3412 timer expiry, will trigger period position district renewal process.And timer value reverted to initial value.
Network comes the periodical location area renewal process of monitoring UE by the terminal access timer.When UE is not an emergency attached when arriving network, the terminal access timer value that network side is safeguarded is longer than T3412.Under normal conditions, acquiescence terminal access timer is longer 4 minutes than T3412.If idle state signaling reduction (idle mode signaling reduction, abbreviate ISR as) do not activate, to carry out the behavior of terminal access timer expiry at network, generally network stops to send beep-page message and starts implicit expression attachment removal timer behind first time timer expiry, wherein, the value of implicit expression attachment removal timer is that network can be joined.UE does not get in touch the networking before the implicit expression timer expiry, and network is with implicit expression deexcitation UE.
In addition, when the UE emergency attached arrived network, the terminal access timer that MME safeguards was identical with the periodical location area renewal length of timer that the UE side is safeguarded, when timer expiry, UE and network be local attachment removal UE respectively.
For the UE and the non-emergent UE that adheres to of emergency attached, agreement has all been described the setting to the terminal access timer.Yet, but non-emergently adhere to carrying that UE that urgency traffic carrying is arranged for some reason may all non-emergent business of deexcitation and only remaining urgency traffic carrying, this moment the terminal access timer value how to be provided with and periodically the processing during timer expiry in agreement, do not describe.
Therefore, need to revise the method and apparatus of terminal access timer value.

Describe embodiments of the invention in detail below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
Fig. 1 is the flow chart that illustrates according to the method to set up of the value of terminal access timer of the present invention.
With reference to Fig. 1, may further comprise the steps according to the method to set up of the value of terminal access timer of the present invention: step S102, judge that subscriber equipment is whether for normally adhering to and whether described subscriber equipment comprises that the urgency traffic carrying connects; And step S104, the value of described terminal access timer is set according to judged result.
Particularly, for the UE that normally adheres to and have urgency traffic, when UE moves to a certain restricted area, restricted area comprises because CAMEL-Subscription-Information, restriction such as roaming information and do not allow UE to insert the zone of regular traffic, therefore in order to guarantee the continuity of urgency traffic, network only keeps the urgency traffic carrying with the carrying of all non-emergent business of deexcitation.
On the other hand, if the UE initiation packet data network that normally adheres to (packet data network abbreviates PDN as) removes connection procedure, and this PDN to connect be last PDN of UE and network when being connected, network will attachment removal UE.But, activating the carrying of urgency traffic and going in the connection procedure of all non-emergent service bearers of deexcitation owing to also have the existence of urgency traffic carrying this moment, network will be not can attachment removal UE but still keep connection status.
Above-mentioned two kinds of scenes all are the networks that UE normally adheres to, and connect but all have only the urgency traffic carrying to connect and do not have non-emergent EPS to carry.
The terminal access timer purpose identical with the value of T3412 timer of design emergency attached state is not allow UE get back to the attachment removal state at once after urgency traffic finishes in the agreement, but allow UE get back to IDLE state a period of time, and in a period of time, keep the urgency traffic carrying of network side to connect, if during this period of time there is the called or UE of urgency traffic to initiate urgency traffic, just can connects fast and do not need to carry out urgent PDN and connect the process of setting up at this.In addition because the urgency traffic resource-constrained, so in order to prevent that the urgency traffic resource long-term from being taken by a certain UE, behind terminal access timer and T3412 timer expiry with attachment removal UE.
In the present invention, normally adhere to and exist under the situation that urgency traffic carrying connects at UE, in order to reduce the waste of urgent resource, attachment removal timer immediately behind timer expiry is carried out the operation that is similar to emergency attached UE.The terminal access timer that the MME place safeguards need be made amendment along with the variation of UE carrying connection.
Particularly, when the only remaining urgency traffic carrying of the UE that normally adheres to connected, MME was revised as the value identical with the T3412 timer with the value of terminal access timer.
On the other hand, when the UE that normally adheres to and activated the urgency traffic carrying moved to a certain restricted cell, the value with the terminal access timer behind all non-emergent service bearers of MME deexcitation was revised as the value identical with the T3412 timer.
On the other hand, normally adhere to and activated under the situation that the urgency traffic carrying connects at UE, when UE request or network deexcitation all non-emergent service bearers connect and when only having kept the urgency traffic carrying and connecting, MME is revised as the value identical with the T3412 timer with the value of terminal access timer.
In addition, connect if the UE that has only the urgency traffic carrying to connect has set up new non-emergent service bearer again, then MME can be revised as the value of terminal access timer the value (under default situations be 4 minute) longer than T3412 timer.
Therefore, under above-mentioned these situations, as the UE of emergency attached, behind timer T3412 and terminal access timer expiry, UE and MME be local attachment removal UE respectively.
Fig. 2 is the block diagram that illustrates according to the system that is provided with of the value of terminal access timer of the present invention.
With reference to Fig. 2, comprise according to the system that is provided with 20 of the value of terminal access timer of the present invention: judgment means 202 is used to judge that subscriber equipment is whether for normally adhering to and whether subscriber equipment comprises that the urgency traffic carrying connects; And setting device 204, be configured in the mobile management entity, be used for being provided with the value of terminal access timer according to judged result.
