Embodiment 1

[0360] Embodiment 1: Based on a network architecture similar to EPS eMBMS

[0361] see Figure 6 ,exist Figure 6 In the network architecture shown:

[0362] (1) Multicast (Multimedia Broadcast, MB)-access and mobility management function (Acess and Mobility Management Function, AMF) is responsible for MB-session management function (Session Management Function, SMF) and next generation (next generation, NG)-wireless access Forwarding of session management messages between radio access networks (RANs);

[0363] (2) MB-SMF is a dedicated SMF for MBMS, corresponding to the MBMS-gateway (Gateway, GW) control plane, responsible for: MBMS bearer session creation / modification / release, Internet Protocol (Internet Protocol, IP) multicast address allocation, etc.

[0364] (3) MB-UPF is a dedicated MBMS user plane function (User plane function, UPF), corresponding to the MBMS-GW user plane, responsible for: sending MBMS user plane data to the Evolved UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Net...

Embodiment 2

[0413] Embodiment 2: MBMS network architecture based on 5G core network (5GC)

[0414] see Figure 11 ,exist Figure 11 In the network architecture shown:

[0415] (1) When the application function (Application function, AF) requires the 5GC to establish a group session (groupsession), the NEF selects the group (Group)-SMF, hereinafter referred to as (G-SMF).

[0416] (2) The AF is responsible for the service announcement: inform the UE of the necessary information of the multicast service (such as TMGI and service start time) through the application layer message.

[0417] (3) G-SMF selects a specific AMF to support message interaction between G-SMF and RAN;

[0418] (4) The G-SMF selects a UPF and informs the AF of the relevant information of the UPF.

[0419] see Figure 12 ,Specific steps are as follows:

[0420] Step 1: The UE measures and determines the target cell list, and reports the multicast related information to the AF through an application layer message. ...

Embodiment 3

[0437] Embodiment 3: Receive multicast data through EPS, send / receive unicast data through 5GS, see Figure 13 .

[0438] In the E-UTRAN network, the UE is in a receive-only mode (Receive-only mode, ROM), that is, it can directly receive the MBMS multicast service without registering to the Evolved Packet System (Evolved Packet System, EPS) network.

[0439] UE knows the MBMS service service area. If the UE finds that there is no E-UTRAN within the coverage of multiple target gNBs to support the UE's multicast reception preference, it will trigger the App server to establish a multicast session with some eNBs. The App server will feed back the establishment status to the UE through an application layer message.

[0440] When reporting the measurement results, the UE only reports the measurement results of the target gNB that can ensure E-UTRAN multicast reception to the source gNB.

[0441] During handover, the source gNB will comprehensively consider the MBMS support of th...

Abstract

Provided are a multicast service management method and device. The method comprises the following steps of sending first information to a source node, with the first information being used for assisting the source node in determining a target node, and the first information comprising information about multicast service reception preferences of a terminal or a terminal group where the terminal islocated. In the embodiment of the invention, MBMS service data can still be received in a multicast mode within the coverage range of the target node after the terminal is switched, and the problem oflow resource utilization rate is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of communications, and in particular to a multicast service management method and device. Background technique [0002] In order to effectively utilize mobile network resources, an enhanced multimedia broadcast multicast service (evolvedMultimedia Broadcast Multicast Service, eMBMS) is proposed. This service is a technology that transmits data from one data source to multiple target mobile terminals, and realizes Sharing improves the utilization of network resources, especially air interface resources. [0003] eMBMS supports two transmission modes in the evolved UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network (Evolved UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network, E-UTRAN): MBMS Single Frequency Network (MBMS Single Frequency Network, MBSFN) transmission mode and single-cell point-to-multipoint transmission (Single Cell Point To Multipoint, SC-PTM). The MBSFN transmission method is to perform sync...
