Embodiment Construction

[0040] In this embodiment, the communication network may refer to a 5G communication network or a more advanced network. The communication includes an AMF network element, an NRF network element and multiple LMF network elements, and two specific LMF network elements among the multiple LMF network elements are the first LMF network element and the second LMF network element. Among them, AMF is the abbreviation of Access and Mobility Management Function, NRF is the abbreviation of Network Repository Function, and LMF is the abbreviation of Location Management Function.

[0041] In this example, refer to figure 1 , the NRF network element receives registration requests from LMF network elements such as the first LMF network element and the second LMF network element, and the registration request includes the tracking area and network slice set supported by the LMF network element. The registration request sent by the element includes the tracking area and the network slice set ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a terminal positioning method in a communication network, a network system, a computer device and a storage medium. The positioning method comprises the following steps: an AMF network element receiving a positioning request of the terminal, generating an LMF network element allocation request according to a tracking area where the terminal is located currently and required service, and an NRF network element finding a first LMF network element according to the LMF network element allocation request, and returning the address information of the first LMF network element to the AMF network element, and sending a positioning request to the first LMF network element by the AMF network element to trigger a positioning service for the terminal. According to the invention, the NRF network element allocates the LMF network element to the terminal according to the tracking area where the terminal is located and the required service, so that the NRF network element can share the load generated by the AMF network element for allocating the LMF network element to the terminal, the AMF network element is prevented from bearing too high load, and the lightweight degree of the network function in the communication network can be improved. The method is widely applied to the technical field of communication networks.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication networks, in particular to a positioning method for a terminal in a communication network, a network system, a computer device and a storage medium. Background technique [0002] At present, in communication networks such as the 5G core network, LMF network elements are used to determine the location of terminals connected to the 5G core network, thereby providing positioning services for the terminals. In the prior art, when a terminal needs to obtain a positioning service each time, the terminal sends a positioning request to an AMF network element, and the AMF network element selects a suitable LMF network element for the terminal according to the positioning request. Due to the large number of terminals, and multiple applications running on the terminals may send positioning requests separately, the AMF network element will receive a large number of positioning requests, and responding t...
