Problems solved by technology

The number of connections in 5G RAN is increasing exponentially, and the network is becoming more and more complex
[0004] The huge difference between 5G and 4G also makes the previous RAN access network configuration mode unable to meet the needs of 5G RAN.
In 5G RAN, there are various types of devices, and the functions of each device are also different. Generally, multiple devices need to cooperate to complete a service. It can be seen that the previous related access network configuration mode does not meet the requirements of 5G RAN. demand, which is not conducive to the development and promotion of 5G technology

Embodiment 1

[0036] The access network configuration method provided in this embodiment configures the device tree, the bearer tree and the service tree respectively, and then connects the device tree and the bearer tree, as well as the bearer tree and the service tree through a reference relationship, and the bearer ME of the bearer tree and the device tree The reference relationship between the equipment ME of the service tree indicates which equipment ME is used by the bearer ME (that is, the bearer function), and the reference relationship between the service ME of the service tree and the bearer ME of the bearer tree indicates which bearer ME is used by the service ME; This three-tree configuration method can separate the configuration of the device tree and the service tree, and realize the flexible reference connection between the device tree and the service tree through the bearer tree, so that the device tree and the service tree are suitable for more and more types and quantities. ...

Embodiment 2

[0070] For ease of understanding, this embodiment describes the access network configuration as an example on the basis of the foregoing embodiments and in combination with the application scenario of 5G RAN.

[0071] see image 3 As shown, this figure shows a part of an exemplary 5G RAN device tree provided by this embodiment. Each device ME under the device tree is a network element that can be managed by the network management device. When configuring each device ME, it includes but is not limited to configuring ME transmission parameters and single board parameters (for device ME with a single board) , shelf information (for equipment ME set in or with a shelf), shelf information (for equipment ME set in or with a shelf), and RRU parameters (for equipment ME with an RRU). see image 3 As shown, the device ME included in the device tree includes but is not limited to CU-C, CU-U, CU, DU (may include BPU), DRAN, and RPU. It should be understood that the device ME specifica...

Embodiment 3

[0097] This embodiment provides an access network configuration device, which can be applied to various network management devices, and the functions of each module included in the access network configuration device can be implemented through but not limited to the controller or processor in the network management device accomplish. see Figure 13 As shown, the access network configuration device in this embodiment includes:

[0098] The device tree configuration module 1301 is configured to configure a device tree, and the device tree includes at least one device ME.

[0099] In an example of this embodiment, the device tree configuration module 1301 can manage all devices in a network in a device tree, that is, the entire network is a topology. Of course, it should be understood that, in some other examples, the device tree configuration module 1301 may also divide devices in one network into two or more device trees for management.

[0100] In this embodiment, the devic...

Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide an access network configuration method and device, a network management device and a storage medium. The method comprises: configuring a device tree, a bearer tree and a service tree, wherein the device tree comprises at least one device ME, the bearer tree comprises at least one bearer ME, the service tree comprises at least one service ME, the bearerME in the bearer tree references the corresponding device ME in the device tree, and the service ME in the service tree references the corresponding bearer ME in the bearer tree. Through the configuration mode of the three trees, the device tree and the service tree are separately configured, flexible reference and connection between the device tree and the service tree is realized through the bearer tree, therefore, the configuration management of the device tree and the service tree is more flexible, the method is more suitable for the requirements of 5G RAN with more and more types and numbers, the configuration is more convenient and clearer when the device ME and the service ME have more and more types and numbers, the maximum efficiency of the network is exerted, and the method is more beneficial to the development and promotion of the 5G technology.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to an access network configuration method, device, network management equipment and storage medium. Background technique [0002] Mobile communication technology has evolved from 4G to 5G. Compared with 4G, 5G has undergone tremendous changes. For example, in terms of equipment, 5GRAN (Radio Access Network, wireless access network) is no longer a base station of BBU (Building Baseband Unit, indoor baseband unit) + RRU (Radio Remote Unit, radio frequency remote unit) of 4G RAN, It is CU (Central Unit, centralized unit) + DU (Distributed Unit, distributed unit), and even further CU-C (Central Unit-Control Plane, control plane centralized unit), CU-U (Central Unit-User Plane , user plane centralization unit), BPU (Baseband Processing Unit, band processing unit), RPU (Radio Processing Unit, radio processing unit), etc. [0003] In terms of business, 5G RAN is no longer only sat...
