具体实施方式
在描述本申请实施例之前，对本申请实施例涉及的技术术语进行描述。
协议数据单元(protocol data unit，PDU)会话：终端设备可以通过建立终端设备到接入网网元到用户面网元到数据网络(data network，DN)的PDU会话，来访问数据网络。
其中，终端设备与接入网网元之间可以通过空口进行数据传输，接入网网元与用户面网元之间可以通过N3隧道进行数据传输，用户面网元与DN之间可以通过N6隧道进行数据传输。
端到端冗余传输：即终端设备可以通过建立两个相互关联的PDU会话发送两份冗余的数据包与DN进行通信。其中，两个相互关联的PDU会话也可以描述为两个相互关联的会话、双冗余会话等，不予限制。
示例性的，如图1所示，在端到端冗余传输架构场景中，终端设备可以使用两个不同的用户面网元(如用户面网元1、用户面网元2)进行每个会话的数据传输，还可以使用双连接(dual connectivity，DC)技术同时与两个接入网网元(如主接入网网元、辅接入网网元)进行连接，两个相互关联的会话可以分别通过两个接入网网元进行数据传输。在用户面，可以实现终端设备－接入网网元－用户面网元－DN的端到端的冗余传输，对于空口、N3隧道和N6隧道，每一段都有独立的数据传输通道，可以保证数据传输的可靠性。在控制面，两个相互关联的会话可以采用相同的会话管理网元进行管理，也可以采用两个不同的会话管理网元(如会话管理网元1、会话管理网元2)进行管理，不予限制。
基于上述对端到端冗余传输架构场景的描述，可以采用下述图2所示的方法建立双冗余会话，具体的，该方法可以包括：
步骤201、终端设备确定建立双冗余会话。
其中，终端设备可以根据终端设备路由选择策略(UE route selection policy，URSP)规则确定建立双冗余会话，或者，终端设备也可以根据内部实现，确定建立双冗余会话，不予限制。
其中，URSP规则可以包括下述一种或多种：Pair ID、冗余序列号(redundancy sequence number，RSN)，两个URSP规则可以使用不同的数据网络名称(data network name，DNN)和单一网络切片选择辅助信息(single network slice selection assistance information，S-NSSAI)。
步骤202、终端设备向会话管理网元发送两路会话建立请求。
其中，会话建立请求可以包括下述一种或多种：Pair ID、RSN，用于标识两个互为冗余的会话，该会话建立请求可以用于请求建立双冗余会话。
当会话建立请求包括Pair ID和RSN时，Pair ID可以用于表示Pair ID对应的两个会话属于同一对会话，即双冗余会话；RSN可以用于将两个会话区分开。当会话建立请求包括RSN，不包括Pair ID时，RSN可以用于指示属于同一对会话的两个会话。
当终端设备确定建立双冗余会话时，终端设备可以向会话管理网元发送包括Pair ID和/或RSN的会话建立请求，以请求建立双冗余会话。当终端设备确定不建立双冗余会话，但需建立会话以进行数据传输时，终端设备可以向会话管理网元发送正常的会话建立请求，以请求建立正常会话。
可选的，会话建立请求还包括DNN和S-NSSAI。
其中，当会话建立请求包括Pair ID和/或RSN时，两个会话可以对应相同的DNN和S-NSSAI。当会话建立请求不包括Pair ID和/或RSN时，两个会话可以对应不同的DNN和S-NSSAI。
步骤203、会话管理网元向策略控制网元发送会话管理策略请求。
其中，会话管理策略请求可以用于请求会话相关的服务质量(quality of service，QoS)需求、QoS配置信息等信息。
示例性的，会话管理网元可以根据DNN和S-NSSAI向策略控制网元发送会话管理策略请求。
其中，当会话建立请求包括Pair ID和/或RSN时，会话管理网元可以使用相同的DNN和S-NSSAI向策略控制网元发送会话管理策略请求。当会话建立请求不包括Pair ID和/或RSN时，会话管理网元可以使用不同的DNN和S-NSSAI向策略控制网元发送会话管理策略请求。
步骤204、策略控制网元向会话管理网元发送会话管理策略。
其中，当会话建立请求包括Pair ID和/或RSN(即终端设备请求建立双冗余会话)时，策略控制网元可以向会话管理网元发送会话管理策略，不包含其他指示信息。
当会话建立请求不包括Pair ID和RSN(即终端设备未请求建立双冗余会话)时，策略控制网元可能会根据终端设备的签约信息或本地配置信息等确定该会话为冗余会话，此时，策略控制网元在向会话管理网元发送的会话管理策略中，可以包括冗余会话标识(redundancy PDU session indicator)，以指示该会话为冗余会话，可选的，还可以在会话管理策略中携带Pair ID和/或RSN。
可选的，策略控制网元将会话管理策略携带在会话管理策略响应中向会话管理网元发送。
步骤205、会话管理网元向用户面网元发送N4会话请求。
步骤206、用户面网元向会话管理网元发送N4会话响应。
其中，N4会话请求可以用于请求建立N4会话。
当终端设备请求建立双冗余会话时，会话管理网元可以向两个用户面网元分别发送N4会话请求，这两个用户面网元可以根据接收到的N4会话请求向会话管理网元发送N4会话响应，以完成N4会话建立，从而为两个会话分别配置一个用户面网元。
步骤207、会话管理网元通过在会话管理上下文容器中添加Pair ID和RSN的方式通知接入网网元。
其中，当会话建立请求包括Pair ID和RSN时，会话管理网元可以根据终端设备发送的会话建立请求确定Pair ID和RSN。当会话管理策略包括Pair ID和RSN时，会话管理网元可以根据策略控制网元发送的会话管理策略确定Pair ID和RSN。当会话建立请求和会话管理策略都不包括Pair ID和RSN时，会话管理网元可以自行分配Pair ID和RSN，不予限制。
步骤208、接入网网元根据分配的Pair ID和RSN为终端设备建立双连接。
其中，接入网网元可以将两个会话的数据分别通过主接入网网元和辅接入网网元进行传输。
其中，主接入网网元可以为会话管理网元通知的接入网网元，主接入网网元可以负责维护移动性管理网元的上下文，终端设备可以驻留在主接入网网元上。主接入网网元还可以决定哪些数据在辅接入网网元上传输，辅接入网网元可以根据主接入网网元的配置进行数据传输。
基于上述对图2的描述，可知，双冗余会话建立的触发条件可以为下述任一种：终端 设备根据URSP规则确定建立双冗余会话、终端设备根据内部实现确定建立双冗余会话、策略控制网元根据终端设备的签约信息或本地配置信息确定建立双冗余会话。
其中，当终端设备根据URSP规则确定建立双冗余会话，或者，策略控制网元根据终端设备的签约信息或本地配置信息确定建立双冗余会话时，均需要通过应用功能网元修改URSP规则的方式修改终端设备的URSP规则，使得终端设备可以根据修改后的URSP规则发起两路会话建立请求(即请求建立双冗余会话)。
示例性的，如图3所示，应用功能网元修改URSP规则的方式可以包括：
步骤301、终端设备进行注册流程。
其中，在终端设备的注册过程中，会话管理网元可以向接入和移动控制策略控制网元进行策略绑定，接入和移动控制策略控制网元可以向网络存储网元订阅与该终端设备策略相关的通知。
步骤302、应用功能网元生成应用功能请求。
其中，应用功能网元可以生成影响终端设备策略的应用功能请求。
示例性的，该应用功能请求可以包括指定的终端设备(如终端设备的标识信息、外部群组标识信息等)，还可以包括用于识别业务数据流的应用流量描述符(application traffic descriptor)、用于配置URSP规则的路由选择参数(route selection parameters)。
其中，终端设备的标识信息可以为终端设备的身份标识(identifier，ID)、通用公共用户标识(generic public subscription identifier，GPSI)等；路由选择参数可以包括DNN、S-NSSAI、优先级等，不予限制。
步骤303、应用功能网元将应用功能请求发送给网络呈现网元。
其中，应用功能网元可以将应用功能请求以服务参数创建/更新/删除请求(service parameter-create/update/delete request)的形式发送给网络呈现网元。
步骤304、网络呈现网元将应用功能请求存储到网元存储网元。
其中，网络呈现网元可以以存储/更新/去除信息(storing/updating/removing the information)的形式将应用功能请求存储到网络存储网元。
步骤305、网络呈现网元向应用功能网元发送服务参数创建/更新/删除响应。
其中，服务参数创建/更新/删除响应可以为service parameter-create/update/delete response。
步骤306、网络存储网元向订阅了该通知的接入和移动控制策略控制网元发起通知。
其中，网络存储网元可以根据终端设备的标识信息确定具体向哪个接入和移动控制策略控制网元发起通知，并将应用功能请求的内容发送给该终端设备对应的接入和移动控制策略控制网元。
步骤307、接入和移动控制策略控制网元根据应用功能请求生成对应的URSP规则，并通过移动性管理网元发送给终端设备。
其中，接入和移动控制策略控制网元可以根据应用功能网元中的路由选择参数等信息生成URSP规则。
可选的，若应用功能网元在发送应用功能请求的同时订阅了URSP更新通知，则接入和移动控制策略控制网元在完成URSP rule更新后，还可以执行下述步骤308和步骤309。
步骤308、接入和移动控制策略控制网元向网络呈现网元通知URSP更新情况。
步骤309、网络呈现网元向应用功能网元通知URSP更新情况。
基于上述对图1至图3的描述，终端设备可以采用建立双冗余会话的方式进行冗余传输，如下述图4所示，终端设备也可以通过双N3隧道进行冗余传输，或者如下述图5所示，终端设备也可以通过双N3和N9隧道进行冗余传输。其中，通过双N3隧道进行冗余传输或通过双N3和N9隧道进行冗余传输也可以统称为通过双N3/N9隧道进行冗余传输。
如图4所示，会话管理网元为终端设备建立会话时，可以为该会话配置两个N3隧道，即接入网网元与用户面网元之间存在两条N3隧道(N3隧道1、N3隧道2)，在进行数据传输时，接入网网元可以通过两个N3隧道向用户面网元发送两份冗余的数据包，用户面网元通过N6隧道将两份冗余的数据包发送给DN。
如图5所示，会话管理网元为终端设备建立会话时，可以为该会话配置两个中间用户面网元(中间用户面网元1、中间用户面网元2)、两个N3隧道(N3隧道1、N3隧道2)、两个N9隧道(N9隧道1、N9隧道2)，接入网网元可以通过两个N3隧道分别与两个中间用户面网元进行通信，两个中间用户面网元可以通过两个N9隧道分别与用户面网元进行通信。在进行数据传输时，接入网网元可以通过两个N3隧道分别向两个中间用户面网元发送两份冗余的数据包，两个中间用户面网元通过两个N9隧道分别向用户面网元发送两份冗余的数据包，用户面网元通过N6隧道将两份冗余的数据包发送给DN。
当采用建立双N3/N9隧道进行冗余传输时，会话管理网元可以直接对接入网网元和用户面网元进行配置，终端设备可以不感知该配置传输过程，可以增加N3传输链路的可靠性。
基于上述图1至图5所示的冗余传输过程，无论是双冗余会话的建立或释放过程还是双N3/N9隧道的建立或释放过程，都仅支持预先配置，无法在数据传输过程中动态触发冗余传输的建立或释放。因此，如何动态触发冗余传输的建立或释放成为亟待解决的技术问题。
为了解决该技术问题，本申请实施例提供了一种冗余传输请求方法，该方法中，时延敏感通信和时间同步网元可以获取误报率(packet error rate，PER)需求和PER信息；时延敏感通信和时间同步网元根据PER需求和PER信息，确定建立双冗余会话；或者，时延敏感通信和时间同步网元根据PER需求和PER信息，确定建立双N3/N9冗余传输路径。
本申请实施例中，时延敏感通信和时间同步网元可以根据PER需求和PER信息确定建立双N3/N9冗余传输路径，或建立双冗余会话，即可以根据PER需求动态触发冗余传输的建立，在进行冗余传输的同时保证PER需求的实现。
