Fixed and mobile fused network and method for authenticate user in the network

Abstract

The invention discloses a fixed-mobile convergence network, which comprises a user layer, an access layer and a mobile core network, wherein the user layer comprises a plurality of users; the access layer comprises an access network and a fixed-mobile convergence gateway, and the users are accessed into the access network; the access network is accessed into the fixed-mobile convergence gateway; and the access layer also comprises a signing server, the fixed-mobile convergence gateway is accessed into the signing server, and the signing server is accessed into the mobile core network. The invention also provides a method for authenticating users in the network. The invention has the advantages that the network reduces the alteration degree of the prior network and can distinguish each user in the management network, and each user can independently select to use or not to use fixed-mobile convergence service; the network prevents unsubscribed users from being accessed into the core network, thereby reducing the load of the core network; and the adoption of the signing server in the access layer can judge whether access points in the network belong to legal access points, thereby preventing the users from being connected to the network through illegal access points.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to communication technology, in particular to a fixed-mobile fusion network and a method for authenticating users in the network. 【Background technique】 [0002] The "Fixed-Mobile Converged Network" that combines the fixed network and the mobile network is an emerging network type in the field of communication technology. In such a network, no matter whether it is a mobile network user terminal or a fixed network user terminal, it can easily access the other party's network. [0003] attached figure 1 It is a schematic structural diagram of an existing fixed-mobile convergence network 100, including a user layer 110, an access layer 120, and a mobile core network 130. The user layer 110 includes multiple terminal users, and the access layer 120 includes an access network and multiple fixed-mobile convergence gateways. Users in the user layer 110 access and resolve to a fixed-mobile convergence gateway through the access netwo...

Problems solved by technology

However, this method needs to upgrade the mobile core network in the entire network, including at least the network elements such as the home location register and the visitor location register (VLR: Visitor Location Register), so the existing network of the operator is greatly changed.

It can also be authenticated through the original authentication system (BAS) of the broadband metropolitan area network, but this method has many changes to the existing network equipment of the broadband metropolitan area network, and the amount of data is too large, and it does not have a wide application prospect
