Embodiment 1

[0046] A method for transmitting an IMEI provided by an embodiment of the present invention is introduced in detail.

[0047] refer to figure 1, shows a flow chart of an IMEI transmission method in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0048] Step 100, when the user equipment accesses the wireless network side, add the IMEI of the user equipment to the S1 interface message.

[0049] Wherein, the S1 interface message is a message transmitted from the packet core network to the evolved base station.

[0050] When the UE accesses the wireless network side, the MME network element of the packet core network can obtain the IMEI of the UE through the relevant signaling process, and at the same time, the packet core network will also transmit the S1 interface message to the eNB.

[0051] There is enough space in the S1 interface message to add the UE's IMEI.

[0052] Step 102, transmit the S1 interface message added with the IMEI to the eNB.

[0053] To sum up, the technical ...

Embodiment 2

[0057] A method for transmitting an IMEI provided by an embodiment of the present invention is introduced in detail.

[0058] refer to figure 2 , shows a flow chart of an IMEI transmission method in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0059] Step 200, when the user equipment accesses the wireless network side, add the IMEI of the user equipment to the S1 interface message.

[0060] Wherein, the access of the user equipment to the wireless network side may include the following two situations:

[0061] The user equipment accesses the wireless network side through an attach process, or the user equipment accesses the wireless network side through an S1 interface handover process of the eNB.

[0062] In the LTE system, the UE attachment process and the S1 interface handover process (eNB changes) are important basic signaling processes for the eNB that involve UE access to the wireless side network and the establishment of radio bearers. In these two processes It is nece...

Embodiment 3

[0090] An IMEI transmission device provided by an embodiment of the present invention is introduced in detail.

[0091] refer to image 3 , shows a structural diagram of an IMEI transmission device in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0092] The one IMEI transmission device may include: an IMEI adding module 300 and a transmission module 302 .

[0093] The IMEI adding module 300 is configured to add the IMEI of the user equipment to the S1 interface message when the user equipment accesses the wireless network side; the S1 interface message is a message transmitted from the packet core network to the evolved base station.

[0094] The transmission module 302 is configured to transmit the S1 interface message added with the IMEI to the eNB.

[0095] To sum up, the technical solution in the embodiment of the present invention adds the IMEI of the UE to the S1 interface message when the UE accesses the wireless network side, and then transmits the S1 interface message w...

Abstract

The invention provides a method and apparatus for transmitting an international mobile equipment identity (IMEI). The method comprises: when user equipment is accessed to a wireless network side, the IMEI of the user equipment is added to an S1 interface message, the S1 interface message being a message transmitted by a packet core network to an evolved base station; and transmitting the S1 interface message added with the IMEI to the evolved base station. The technical scheme provided by the invention does not require a communication modification protocol, is of quite high onsite applicability, enhances user perception, has a quite high utility value, at the same time, can also provides an effective statistical basis for user equipment of different brands to carry out KPI statistics at a wireless side, assists service providers with refinement services, and has great significance on improving network service brand values.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a method and device for transmitting an International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI). Background technique [0002] With the popularity of the third-generation mobile communication technology (3rd-Generation, 3G) technology and the arrival of the long-term evolution technology (Long Term Evolution, LTE) era, smart phones will be more and more widely used in the future. Due to the different technical capabilities of various mobile phone manufacturers, the implementation of smart phones is also very different, such as the limitation on the number of wireless access bearers that can be supported. If the International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) of the mobile phone is known in advance on the wireless side, the operator can customize some wireless strategies such as access, switching, and control for these brands of mobile phones, so that more Good to improve user perce...
