Description
技术领域technical field
本发明涉及移动通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种联合位置更新方法、系统和相关设备。The present invention relates to the technical field of mobile communication, in particular to a joint location update method, system and related equipment.
背景技术Background technique
CSFB(Circuit Switched Fallback,电路域回落)为LTE(Long TermEvolution,长期演进)系统中实现语音通话的方式,通过LTE终端在LTE网络下进行TA(Tracking Area,跟踪区)/LA(Location Area,位置区)联合更新实现,在LTE的MME(Mobile Managenment Entity,移动性管理实体)与GSM(Global System for Mobile Communication,全球移动通信系统)的MSC(Mobile Switching Center,移动交换中心)同时完成登记,当终端在LTE网络中发起语音呼叫或收到语音寻呼消息时,利用LTE下行重定向信令内指定的GSM频点进行回落,再在GSM下发起语音呼叫或响应寻呼的过程。CSFB (Circuit Switched Fallback, Circuit Switched Fallback) is a way to realize voice calls in the LTE (Long Term Evolution, long-term evolution) system. It uses LTE terminals to perform TA (Tracking Area, tracking area)/LA (Location Area, location) under the LTE network. District) joint update implementation, the MME (Mobile Management Entity, Mobility Management Entity) of LTE and the MSC (Mobile Switching Center, Mobile Switching Center) of GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication, Global System for Mobile Communication) complete registration at the same time, when When the terminal initiates a voice call or receives a voice paging message in the LTE network, it uses the GSM frequency specified in the LTE downlink redirection signaling to fall back, and then initiates a voice call or responds to the paging process under GSM.
联合位置更新过程包括MME向MSC发起联合位置更新请求、MSC向HSS(Home Subscriber Serve,归属用户服务器)发起CS(Circuit Switched,电路交换)域位置更新过程。联合位置更新完成后,MME记录UE(UserEquipment,用户设备)对应的MSC,MSC记录UE对应的MME,HSS记录用户所在的MSC。当UE作为主叫(MO,MO Mobile Originated)发起的CSFB呼叫或者SMS,MME需要根据记录找到MSC;用户接收MT的CSFB呼叫或者SMS(Short Message Service,短信息),HSS可以根据记录找到该UE对应的MSC,MSC根据记录找到该UE对应的MME。The joint location update process includes that the MME initiates a joint location update request to the MSC, and the MSC initiates a CS (Circuit Switched, circuit switched) domain location update process to the HSS (Home Subscriber Serve, Home Subscriber Server). After the joint location update is completed, the MME records the MSC corresponding to the UE (User Equipment, user equipment), the MSC records the MME corresponding to the UE, and the HSS records the MSC where the user is located. When the UE initiates a CSFB call or SMS as the calling party (MO, MO Mobile Originated), the MME needs to find the MSC according to the records; when the user receives a CSFB call or SMS (Short Message Service, short message) from the MT, the HSS can find the UE according to the records The corresponding MSC, the MSC finds the MME corresponding to the UE according to the record.
现有的CSFB联合位置更新过程为单向更新,即只能由MME侧向MSC侧发起联合位置更新请求,MSC无法主动的发起联合位置更新。一旦UE因某种原因导致实际所在MSC与HSS中记录的MSC不相符,则必须通过MME来触发UE重新进行联合位置更新过程,并且MSC也需要确保去更新HSS中记录的MSC ID。如果HSS中记录的MSC与实际MSC不相符,将直接导致UE作为被叫(MT,Mobile Terminated)时的CSFB语音呼叫和SMS失败。The existing CSFB joint location update process is a one-way update, that is, the MME side can only initiate a joint location update request to the MSC side, and the MSC cannot actively initiate a joint location update. Once the actual MSC of the UE does not match the MSC recorded in the HSS for some reason, the MME must be used to trigger the UE to perform a joint location update process again, and the MSC also needs to ensure that the MSC ID recorded in the HSS is updated. If the MSC recorded in the HSS does not match the actual MSC, it will directly cause CSFB voice calls and SMS failures when the UE is called (MT, Mobile Terminated).
由于CSFB主要是通过MSC为用户实现语音呼叫的技术方案,因此MSC侧能够及时发现UE的使用异常。一旦UE因HSS中记录的MSC与该UE实际所在的MSC不符出现被叫失败的情况,MSC侧可以通过跟踪信令等方式快速发现原因,但是按照目前的联合位置更新流程MSC无法发起联合位置更新过程,只能首先清除该UE对应的VLR(Visitor Location Register,拜访位置寄存器)登记信息,然后查找到UE所在MME,再联系MME侧强制用户重登记来解决该问题。由此可见,从MSC发现异常直至通知MME强制用户重登记以保证HSS中所经过的中间环节较多,增加了联合位置更新的时延。Since CSFB is mainly a technical solution for implementing voice calls for users through MSC, the MSC side can detect abnormal usage of UE in time. Once the UE fails to be called due to the discrepancy between the MSC recorded in the HSS and the actual MSC where the UE is located, the MSC can quickly find out the cause by tracking signaling, etc. However, according to the current joint location update process, the MSC cannot initiate a joint location update. In this process, the registration information of the VLR (Visitor Location Register) corresponding to the UE can only be cleared at first, and then the MME where the UE is located can be found, and then the problem can be solved by contacting the MME side to force the user to re-register. It can be seen that there are many intermediate links passed through from the MSC discovering the abnormality until notifying the MME to force the user to re-register to ensure the HSS, which increases the time delay of the joint location update.

具体实施方式detailed description
针对解决现有技术中,当MSC发现异常直至通知MME发起联合位置更新的中间环节较多,使得联合位置更新延迟较大的问题,本发明实施例提供了一种联合位置更新方法和装置。Aiming at solving the problem in the prior art that when the MSC discovers an abnormality until it notifies the MME to initiate a joint location update, there are many intermediate links, resulting in a large delay in the joint location update, the embodiments of the present invention provide a joint location update method and device.
以下结合说明书附图对本发明的优选实施例进行说明,应当理解,此处所描述的优选实施例仅用于说明和解释本发明,并不用于限定本发明,并且在不冲突的情况下,本发明中的实施例及实施例中的特征可以相互组合。The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described here are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention, and in the absence of conflict, the present invention The embodiments and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
发明人发现,现有的针对支持CSFB的UE的联合位置更新过程是一个单向更新过程,即只能由MME侧向MSC侧发起联合位置更新请求,MSC无法主动的发起联合位置更新。一旦用户因某种原因导致实际所在MSC与HSS/HLR中记录的MSC不相符,则必须通过MME来触发用户重新进行联合位置登记过程。而现有技术中,由于MSC侧通常可以早于MME发现UE实际所在MSC与HSS/HLR中记录的MSC不相符,但是MSC无法自行处理或者解决该问题,只能首先清除用户VLR中的登记信息,然后查找到用户所在MME,然后再联系MME侧强制UE重新登记来解决该问题,上述过程中间环节较多,增加了处理时延,如果用户在这期间再次进行CSFB语音通话等,则会再次造成语音通话失败,严重影响了用户体验。The inventors found that the existing joint location update process for UEs supporting CSFB is a one-way update process, that is, only the MME side can initiate a joint location update request to the MSC side, and the MSC cannot actively initiate a joint location update process. Once the actual MSC of the user does not match the MSC recorded in the HSS/HLR for some reason, the MME must be used to trigger the user to re-register the joint location. However, in the prior art, since the MSC side usually finds that the MSC where the UE actually resides does not match the MSC recorded in the HSS/HLR earlier than the MME, the MSC cannot handle or solve this problem by itself, and can only clear the registration information in the user VLR first. , and then find the MME where the user is located, and then contact the MME side to force the UE to re-register to solve this problem. There are many intermediate links in the above process, which increases the processing delay. The voice call fails, which seriously affects the user experience.
为此,本申请中针对MSC只能被动的接受位置更新的情况,实现了由MSC通过SGs接口主动发起联合位置更新。MSC能够在不需要MME操作的情况下主动触发支持CSFB的UE进行联合位置更新过程,确保及时快速刷新MME、MSC、HSS/HLR中相关的登记信息为最新的正确的信息,解决支持CSFB的用户在HSS/HLR中记录的MSC与实际MSC不相符问题,简化解决此类问题的步骤,提高了解决此类问题的速度和效率,增强了MSC的主动性。Therefore, in this application, aiming at the situation that the MSC can only passively accept the location update, it is realized that the MSC actively initiates the joint location update through the SGs interface. MSC can actively trigger CSFB-supporting UEs to perform a joint location update process without MME operations, ensuring that the relevant registration information in MME, MSC, and HSS/HLR is refreshed in a timely manner to the latest and correct information, and solves the problem of CSFB-supporting users The MSC recorded in HSS/HLR does not match the actual MSC, which simplifies the steps to solve such problems, improves the speed and efficiency of solving such problems, and enhances the initiative of MSC.
需要说明的是,HLR设置于2G或者3G移动通信系统中,而HSS设置于4G及其演进移动通信系统中,两者在各自所在的移动通信系统中的作用类似。It should be noted that the HLR is set in the 2G or 3G mobile communication system, and the HSS is set in the 4G and its evolution mobile communication system, and the functions of the two in their respective mobile communication systems are similar.
如图1所示,为本发明实施例提供的联合位置更新系统的结构示意图,包括移动交换中心MSC 11和移动性管理实体MME 12,其中:As shown in FIG. 1 , a schematic structural diagram of a joint location update system provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes a mobile switching center MSC 11 and a mobility management entity MME 12, wherein:
所述MSC 11,用于在确定需要进行联合位置更新时,将自身存储的HSS/HLR(归属用户服务器/归属位置寄存器)确认状态置为不可信,并向MME(移动性管理实体)发送联合位置更新请求;以及根据所述MME返回的响应消息执行第二联合位置更新操作;The MSC 11 is configured to set the HSS/HLR (Home Subscriber Server/Home Location Register) confirmation status stored by itself as untrustworthy when it is determined that a joint location update is required, and send a joint location update to the MME (Mobility Management Entity) a location update request; and performing a second joint location update operation according to the response message returned by the MME;
所述MME 12,用于根据所述联合位置更新请求执行第一联合位置更新操作后向所述MSC返回的响应消息。The MME 12 is configured to return a response message to the MSC after performing the first joint location update operation according to the joint location update request.
较佳的,MSC和MME之间通过SGs接口进行通信,SGs接口用于在LTE网络中实现CSFB呼叫及基于SGs的SMS功能。Preferably, the MSC and the MME communicate through the SGs interface, and the SGs interface is used to implement CSFB calls and SGs-based SMS functions in the LTE network.
具体实施时,当MSC判定需要通过SGs接口发起联合位置更新请求时(例如,支持CSFB的UE因实际所在的MSC与HSS/HLR中记录的MSC不同造成被叫CSFB通话失败时,MSC侧可以通过信令跟踪等方式快速发现原因,由此,MSC可以判定需要发起联合位置更新请求)。MSC首先将该UE登记信息中的HSS/HLR确认状态置为不可信,然后生成一条发起CS(电路域)位置更新请求并通过SGs接口发送给MME。其中,MSC发送的请求消息中可以包含至少一个IMSI(International Mobile SubscriberIdentification Number,国际移动用户识别码),也可以不携带IMSI。其中,如果MSC发送的请求消息中携带有IMSI,则用于指示MME需要针对携带的IMSI对应的UE进行位置更新,如果未携带IMSI,则用于指示MME需要针对该MSC下所有的支持CSFB功能的UE进行位置更新。During specific implementation, when the MSC determines that it is necessary to initiate a joint location update request through the SGs interface (for example, when the UE that supports CSFB fails to call the CSFB call because the actual MSC is different from the MSC recorded in the HSS/HLR, the MSC side can pass The cause can be quickly discovered by methods such as signaling tracing, so that the MSC can determine that it is necessary to initiate a joint location update request). The MSC first sets the HSS/HLR confirmation status in the UE registration information as untrustworthy, then generates a CS (circuit domain) location update request and sends it to the MME through the SGs interface. Wherein, the request message sent by the MSC may contain at least one IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identification Number, International Mobile Subscriber Identification Number), or may not carry the IMSI. Wherein, if the request message sent by the MSC carries an IMSI, it is used to indicate that the MME needs to update the location of the UE corresponding to the carried IMSI; if it does not carry the IMSI, it is used to indicate that the MME needs to support all CSFB functions under the MSC The UE performs location update.
基于此,根据MSC发送的请求消息中是否携带有需要进行联合位置更新的UE的IMSI,本发明实施例提供的联合位置更新可以有以下两种实施方式。Based on this, according to whether the request message sent by the MSC carries the IMSI of the UE that needs to perform the joint location update, the joint location update provided by the embodiment of the present invention may have the following two implementation manners.
第一种实施方式、MSC发送的请求消息中携带有至少一个需进行联合位置更新的UE的IMSI。In the first embodiment, the request message sent by the MSC carries the IMSI of at least one UE that needs to perform joint location update.
这种实施方式下,MME在接收到MSC发送的请求消息后,首先判断自身是否存储有相应的IMSI,如果自身未存储有相应的IMSI,则MME通过SGs接口向MSC返回联合位置更新失败消息。如果自身存储有相应的IMSI,则MME通过SGs接口向MSC发送Location Update Request(联合位置更新通知消息)开始联合位置更新。该请求消息以及后续的CS侧完整位置更新过程,Location Update Accept(联合位置更新确认消息)等与现有的联合位置更新流程相同,这里不再赘述。In this implementation mode, after receiving the request message sent by the MSC, the MME first judges whether it has stored the corresponding IMSI. If it does not store the corresponding IMSI, the MME returns a joint location update failure message to the MSC through the SGs interface. If the corresponding IMSI is stored in itself, the MME sends a Location Update Request (joint location update notification message) to the MSC through the SGs interface to start joint location update. The request message and the subsequent complete location update process on the CS side, Location Update Accept (joint location update confirmation message), etc. are the same as the existing joint location update process, and will not be repeated here.
MSC根据MME返回的响应消息继续完成后续操作。具体的,如果MME返回联合位置更新失败的消息,则MSC删除该用户登记信息;如果MME返回Location Update Request消息,则MSC通知HSS/HLR更新相应IMSI对应的UE所在的位置区,并修改自身存储的所述HSS/HLR确认状态为可信。如果MME没有返回响应消息,则MSC无需进行任何操作。The MSC continues to complete subsequent operations according to the response message returned by the MME. Specifically, if the MME returns a joint location update failure message, the MSC deletes the user registration information; if the MME returns a Location Update Request message, the MSC notifies the HSS/HLR to update the location area where the UE corresponding to the IMSI is located, and modifies its own stored The HSS/HLR confirms the status as Trusted. If the MME does not return a response message, the MSC does not need to take any action.
第二种实施方式、MSC发送的请求消息中未携带需进行联合位置更新的UE的IMSI。In the second implementation manner, the request message sent by the MSC does not carry the IMSI of the UE that needs to perform joint location update.
这种实施方式下,MME针对发送请求消息的MSC下登记的所有支持CSFB的UE向MSC发送联合位置更新通知消息进行联合位置更新。具体实施时,MME可以将发送请求消息的MSC下登记的所有支持CSFB的UE进行分组,例如,MME可以根据IMSI对UE进行分组,也可以按照用户信令对UE进行分组等,本发明实施例对此不进行限定,基于分组结果,分批对发送请求消息的MSC下登记的所有支持CSFB的UE向MSC发送联合位置更新通知消息进行联合位置更新。In this implementation manner, the MME sends a joint location update notification message to the MSC for all CSFB-capable UEs registered under the MSC sending the request message to perform joint location update. During specific implementation, the MME can group all CSFB-supporting UEs registered under the MSC that sent the request message. For example, the MME can group the UEs according to the IMSI, or group the UEs according to user signaling. The embodiment of the present invention This is not limited. Based on the grouping result, all CSFB-supporting UEs registered under the MSC sending the request message send a joint location update notification message to the MSC in batches for joint location update.
具体实施时,MME针对每一组UE进行联合位置更新的过程与上述第一种实施方式类似,即针对每一组UE,MME向通过SGs接口向MSC发送Location Update Request(联合位置更新通知消息)开始联合位置更新。该请求消息以及后续的CS侧完整位置更新过程,Location Update Accept(联合位置更新确认消息)等与现有的联合位置更新流程相同,这里不再赘述。MSC通知HSS/HLR更新相应IMSI对应的UE所在的位置区,并修改自身存储的所述HSS/HLR确认状态为可信。During specific implementation, the process of the joint location update performed by the MME for each group of UEs is similar to the above-mentioned first embodiment, that is, for each group of UEs, the MME sends a Location Update Request (joint location update notification message) to the MSC through the SGs interface Start federated location updates. The request message and the subsequent complete location update process on the CS side, Location Update Accept (joint location update confirmation message), etc. are the same as the existing joint location update process, and will not be repeated here. The MSC notifies the HSS/HLR to update the location area where the UE corresponding to the IMSI is located, and modifies the HSS/HLR confirmation status stored by itself as trusted.
以上描述了MSC通过SGs接口主动发起联合位置更新的实施过程,根据MSC发送的请求消息中是否携带需进行联合位置更新的UE的IMSI分别进行处理。针对携带有需进行联合位置更新的UE的IMSI的流程用于对相应UE的CS侧位置信息主动更新;如果没有携带需进行联合位置更新的UE的IMSI,则针对MSC/VLR(归属位置寄存器)下的全部支持CSFB功能的UE进行联合位置更新,其将触发MME对关联到该MSC/VLR的所有支持CSFB功能的UE进行重注册。The above describes the implementation process of the MSC actively initiating the joint location update through the SGs interface, and performs processing according to whether the request message sent by the MSC carries the IMSI of the UE that needs to perform the joint location update. The process for carrying the IMSI of the UE that needs to perform joint location update is used to actively update the CS side location information of the corresponding UE; if it does not carry the IMSI of the UE that needs to perform joint location update, then for MSC/VLR (Home Location Register) All CSFB-capable UEs in the network will perform a joint location update, which will trigger the MME to re-register all CSFB-capable UEs associated with the MSC/VLR.
本发明实施例提供的联合位置更新方法,增加了MSC主动对用户进行标志置位、主动发起CS位置更新请求消息、MME对于MSC发送的CS位置更新请求进行相应处理,以实现MSC主动触发CSFB用户进行联合位置的目的。从而解决了现有技术中MSC发现CSFB用户(即支持CSFB功能的UE)实际所在的MSC与HSS/HLR中记录的MSC不符,通知MME进行联合位置更新时所经过的中间环节较多,增加了CSFB用户MSC注册异常时处理时延的问题。The joint location update method provided by the embodiment of the present invention adds that the MSC actively sets the flag for the user, initiates a CS location update request message, and the MME processes the CS location update request sent by the MSC accordingly, so as to realize the MSC actively triggering the CSFB user The purpose of conducting a joint position. Therefore, in the prior art, the MSC finds that the MSC where the CSFB user (i.e., the UE supporting the CSFB function) actually resides does not match the MSC recorded in the HSS/HLR, and there are many intermediate links to be passed when notifying the MME to perform joint location update, which increases the The problem of processing delay when CSFB user MSC registration is abnormal.
基于同一发明构思,本发明实施例中还提供了一种分别由MSC和MME实施的联合位置更新方法和相关设备,由于上述方法及设备解决问题的原理与联合位置更新系统相似,因此上述方法及设备的实施可以参见系统的实施,重复之处不再赘述。Based on the same inventive concept, the embodiment of the present invention also provides a joint location update method and related equipment respectively implemented by MSC and MME. Since the problem solving principle of the above method and equipment is similar to that of the joint location update system, the above method and For the implementation of the equipment, please refer to the implementation of the system, and the repetitive parts will not be repeated.

S31、MME接收MSC发送的联合位置更新请求。S31. The MME receives the joint location update request sent by the MSC.
其中,MSC在判定自身需要通过SGs接口发起联合位置更新请求时(例如,支持CSFB的UE因实际所在的MSC与HSS/HLR中记录的MSC不同造成被叫CSFB通话失败时,MSC侧可以通过信令跟踪等方式快速发现原因,由此,MSC可以判定需要发起联合位置更新请求)向MME发送联合位置更新请求。Among them, when the MSC determines that it needs to initiate a joint location update request through the SGs interface (for example, when the called CSFB call fails because the UE that supports CSFB is actually located different from the MSC recorded in the HSS/HLR, the MSC side can pass the signal Therefore, the MSC can determine that it is necessary to initiate a joint location update request) and send a joint location update request to the MME.
S32、MME根据所述联合位置更新请求执行第一联合位置更新操作后向所述MSC返回的响应消息。S32. A response message returned by the MME to the MSC after performing the first joint location update operation according to the joint location update request.
如果联合位置更新请求中携带有至少一个需进行联合位置更新的UE的IMSI,则步骤S32中,MME首先判断自身是否存储有相应的IMSI,如果是,则向请求消息中携带的IMSI对应的UE向MSC发送联合位置更新通知消息;如果否,则向发送请求消息的MSC发送联合位置更新失败消息。如果所述联合位置更新请求中未携带需进行联合位置更新的UE的IMSI,则步骤S32中,MME针对发送请求消息的MSC下登记的所有支持CSFB的UE向MSC发送联合位置更新通知消息进行联合位置更新。If the joint location update request carries at least one IMSI of the UE that needs to perform joint location update, then in step S32, the MME first judges whether it has stored the corresponding IMSI, and if so, sends the IMSI to the UE corresponding to the IMSI carried in the request message. Send a joint location update notification message to the MSC; if not, send a joint location update failure message to the MSC that sent the request message. If the joint location update request does not carry the IMSI of the UE that needs to perform joint location update, then in step S32, the MME sends a joint location update notification message to the MSC for all CSFB-capable UEs registered under the MSC that sent the request message to perform joint location update.
