Data connection management method, device and system

Abstract

The embodiments of the invention provide a data connection management method, device and system. The data connection management method includes the steps of acquiring, by user equipment (UE), first indication information which is used for indicating to close or open a data connection; and transmitting, by the UE, the first indication information to a packet data network gateway P-GW, to enable the P-GW to stop or start the data transmission of at least one bearer of the UE according to the first indication information. With the embodiment, the traffic of a terminal is effectively controlled and the additional cost for a user is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a data connection management method, device and system. Background technique [0002] In order to meet various requirements such as service bandwidth, service quality, and network coverage, the 3G (3rd-Generation, third-generation mobile communication technology) standard introduces a new evolution technology. EPS (Evolved Packet System) is the latest evolution standard of 3G UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) developed by 3GPP (The 3rd Generation Partnership Project). It is 4G or SAE (System Architecture Evolution, system architecture evolution). Compared with 3G technology, one feature of EPS is that only the packet domain (PS, Packet System Domain) is reserved in the core network, and the circuit switching domain (CS, Circuit Switch Domain) is abandoned. [0003] The EPS network provides a data channel of the mobile network, thereby supporting U...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the popularity of smart terminals has brought a large amount of background data traffic, such as OS (Operation System, operating system) heartbeat, software automatic upgrade detection, background program network update and other data traffic consumption. These additional data traffic consumption generally occurs in the UE When there is no data service, the UE's "always online" allows the UE to connect to the Internet when it is attached to the EPS network. While providing users with a better user experience, it also saves the consumption of the above-mentioned large amount of background data traffic. Conditions are provided, the consumption of this kind of background traffic cannot be perceived by the user, and the UE is always online, so it cannot be effectively controlled, which in turn increases the additional cost of the user and affects the user experience
