[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a voice communication processing method, device, user equipment and storage medium. Background Art

[0002] In related technologies, in order to quickly deploy the fifth generation mobile communication technology (5th Generation Mobile Communication Technology, 5G), operators usually first deploy the dual connection (EUTRA) of the evolved universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access, EUTRA) and the new radio (NR) of the user equipment (UE), and then deploy the standalone network (SA). In the early stage of SA network deployment, voice services usually use the evolved packet system fallback (EPS fallback). EPS fallback requires the cooperation of 5G and the fourth generation mobile communication technology (4G) network, and provides voice services with the help of 4G's long-term evolution voice bearer (VoLTE). However, in the early stage of SA network deployment, there will be some problems, such as some configuration errors, which will cause EPS fallback to fail; this will cause voice services to fail, giving users a bad experience.

[0057] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present invention as detailed in the appended claims.

[0058] Regarding the device in the above embodiment, the specific manner in which each module performs operations has been described in detail in the embodiment of the method, and will not be elaborated here.

[0059] In related technologies, the reasons for EPS fallback failure may be, but are not limited to, the imperfection of the SA protocol. For example, imperfect protocols between the wireless side, the core network side, and the UE side, or faults on the wireless side, the core network side, and the UE side may all lead to EPS fallback failure. Currently, after the UE has an EPS fallback failure, the UE is usually still preparing for the next EPS fallback on the 5G network; if there are still problems with the 5G network, the EPS fallback will still fail; this does not guarantee that the UE can continue to perform voice services, etc.

[0060] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a voice communication processing method according to an exemplary embodiment; Figure 1 As shown, the voice communication processing method includes the following steps:

[0061] Step S11: In response to an evolved packet system fallback (EPS fallback) failure of a user equipment (UE) from a first network to a second network, initiating voice registration in the second network;

[0062] Step S12: after the voice registration is successfully initiated, voice services are performed in the second network.

[0063] The method described in the embodiment of the present disclosure is applied to a user device. In one embodiment, the user device can be various mobile devices or fixed devices; for example, the user device can be a mobile phone, a computer, a server, a transceiver device, a tablet device, a medical device, or a wearable device.

[0064] In one embodiment, the first network is a 5G network, and the second network is a 4G network. The evolved packet system fallback here may be: when the UE initiates a voice service on the 5G network, it falls back to the 4G network. The first network here may be a newer generation network relative to the second network.

[0065] Of course, in other embodiments, the first network and the second network may be other networks. For example, the first network is a 6G network, and the second network is a 5G network; then the step S11 may be: when the UE initiates a voice service from the 6G network, it fails when it falls back to the 5G network, and initiates voice registration in the 5G network. For another example, the first network is a 4G network, and the second network is a 3G network; then the step S11 may be: when the UE initiates a voice service from the 4G network, it fails when it falls back to the 3G network, and initiates voice registration in the 3G network. There is no restriction on the first network and the second network herein.

[0066] In one embodiment, initiating voice registration in the second network may include: sending a voice registration request to a network side entity of the second network. The network side entity here is: a Call Session Control Function (CSCF) entity. Of course, in other embodiments, the network side entity may be a physical entity or a logical entity; for example, it may be a gateway, a mobile management entity (MME), etc.

[0067] The voice registration request herein may be, but is not limited to, one of the following: a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) registration request, or information carrying a SIP registration request.

[0068] In one embodiment, the successful initiation of the voice registration request may include: receiving a confirmation message returned by a network-side entity of the second network based on the voice registration request. For example, the successful initiation of the voice registration request includes: receiving a confirmation message returned by the SCSF based on the SIP registration request.

[0069] In one embodiment, before the second network initiates voice registration, the method may further include: sending an attach request (Attach request) or a public data packet connection request (PDN connectivity request) to a network side entity. The network side entity here may be an MME.

[0070] In one embodiment, initiating voice registration in the second network may include: after determining that an EPS bearer is established between the UE and a packet data gateway (PGW) or a serving gateway (SGW), sending the voice registration request to the CSCF body.

[0071] In one embodiment, the voice service includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: a calling service and / or a called service. For example, the calling service may be a mobile calling (MO) service; the called service may be a mobile called (MT) service.

[0072] In one embodiment, the EPS fallback failure includes but is not limited to: EPS fallback of MO, and / or EPS fallback of MT. The EPS fallback failure of MO here means that the UE is making a mobile outgoing call or preparing to make a mobile outgoing call when the EPS fallback from the first network falls back to the second network; the EPS fallback failure of MT here means that the UE is making a mobile incoming call or preparing to receive a mobile incoming call when the EPS fallback from the first network falls back to the second network fails.

[0073] For example, Figure 2 As shown, an application scenario of a voice communication processing method is disclosed. When the UE falls back from the 5G network to the 4G network, the UE fails to perform voice services on the 5G network; then the UE can attach to the 4G network and perform voice services on the 4G network.

[0074] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, in response to the EPS fallback failure of the UE falling back from the first network to the second network, the UE initiates voice registration on the second network; and after the voice registration is successfully initiated, the voice service is performed on the second network. In this way, the UE of the embodiment of the present disclosure can directly perform voice services on the second network after the EPS fallback failure causes the voice service failure; this enables the UE to continuously perform voice services, thereby improving the user experience of voice services.

[0075] Moreover, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE can directly perform voice services in the second network after the EPS fallback fails. Compared with the prior art in which the UE still performs EPS fallback in the second network after the EPS fallback fails, the occurrence of EPS fallback failure again can be reduced, thereby saving the UE's power consumption and resources.

[0076] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, performing voice service on the second network includes one of the following:

[0077] Step S121: If the EPS FB failure is the EPS fallback failure of the MO, the MO is initiated in the second network;

[0078] Step S122: If the EPS FB failure is the EPS fallback failure of the MT, the MT is received within a predetermined time.

[0079] In one embodiment, the EPS fallback failure of the MO includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: failure to send a SIP invitation to the first network, failure to receive a SIP request confirmation returned by the first network, failure to send a session progress message to the first network; failure of radio resource control (RRC) release redirection to the second network, and failure of the second network to return an update SIP.

[0080] In one embodiment, initiating MO to the second network includes: sending a call request message to a network side entity of the second network; wherein the call request message is used to request to establish a voice call connection with the called UE.

[0081] In one embodiment, the UE that initiates the call is the calling UE, and the UE that receives the paging is the called UE.

[0082] In one embodiment, the initiating MO to the second network includes: sending the call request message to the second UE through a network entity of the second network. In this way, the UE of this embodiment can initiate a paging request message to the called UE through the network entity of the second network, so as to ensure the continuity of the calling service.

[0083] In another embodiment, the initiating MO to the second network includes: sending a paging request message to a network-side entity of the second network; wherein the paging request message is used to request to establish a voice call connection with the called UE;

[0084] Receive a paging confirmation message returned by the network side entity of the second network, wherein the paging confirmation message indicates that the called UE confirms the establishment of the voice call connection.

[0085] In one embodiment, the paging request message carries identification information. The identification information here is used to identify the object being called; for example, the identification information is used to identify any other UE except the UE that initiated the MO. In one embodiment, the identification information is a telephone number.

[0086] In one embodiment, the identification information may be the identification information carried when the EPS fallback of the MO fails. In this way, this embodiment can re-perform the MO based on the last interrupted MO.

[0087] In another embodiment, the identification information may be identification information of any UE. In this way, this embodiment may initiate MO to any UE.

[0088] In one embodiment, the EPS fallback failure of the MT includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: failure of radio resource control (RRC) release redirection to the second network, and failure of the second network returning an update SIP.

[0089] In one embodiment, the predetermined time is less than or equal to the first duration. For example, the first duration is 2 minutes, 5 minutes, or 10 minutes, etc. Exemplarily, a timer may be set in the UE, and the timing time of the timer is the predetermined time; then the UE waits for the MT within the timing time.

[0090] In one embodiment, the predetermined time may be pre-configured by the user, or the predetermined time may be configured based on historical experience data. For example, if the user determines that the waiting time after EPS fallback failure is 10 minutes, the predetermined time is configured to be 10 minutes. For another example, if the MT can usually be received within 15 minutes after the previous EPS fallback failure, the predetermined time is determined to be 15 minutes.

[0091] In one embodiment, receiving the MT includes: receiving a paging message sent by a network side entity of the second network. The paging message here may carry identification information. For example, the first UE receives a paging message sent by the network side entity within a predetermined time, wherein the paging message is determined by the network side entity of the second network based on a call request message initiated by the second UE to call the first UE.

[0092] In one embodiment, the receiving of the MT includes: receiving a paging message sent by the calling UE through a network entity of the second network. Thus, the UE of this embodiment can receive a paging request message initiated by the calling UE through the network entity of the second network, so as to ensure the continuity of the called service.

[0093] In the disclosed embodiment, if the UE fails to perform a calling service when falling back from the first network to the second network, it can switch to the second network and re-make a mobile call; thereby reducing the occurrence of calling service failures due to EPS fallback failures, ensuring the continuity of calling services, and improving user experience.

[0094] Alternatively, if the UE fails to perform the called service when falling back to the second network from the first network, it can switch to the second network and wait for the paging message sent by the second network. In this way, if the paging message is received within the predetermined time, the failure of the called service due to EPS fallback failure can be reduced, and the called service can be ensured to be continuous, thus improving the user experience.

[0095] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the method further includes one of the following:

[0096] Step S131: if the MT is received within a predetermined time, after completing the MT, switching the UE back to the first network;

[0097] Step S132: If the MT is not received within the predetermined time and the predetermined time is reached, the UE is switched back to the first network.

[0098] Completing the MT here means that the called service ends. In one embodiment, completing the MT includes completing the voice call with the calling UE based on the voice call connection.

[0099] Exemplarily, the first UE receives a mobile incoming call from the second UE, and if the call between the first UE and the second UE is ended, it is determined that the MT is completed.

[0100] In one embodiment, completing the MT includes: completing the voice call with the calling UE through a network side entity of the second network based on the voice call connection.

[0101] In an embodiment, the failure to receive the MT within a predetermined time includes: failure to receive a paging message sent by a network-side entity of the second network within a predetermined time.

[0102] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, if the UE receives the MT within a predetermined time, it can be switched back to the first network after the MT ends. In this way, the embodiment of the present disclosure can switch to the first network in time to perform other data services after the UE completes the called service, so that the UE can efficiently complete other data services in the first network.

[0103] Alternatively, if the UE (called UE in this case) does not receive the MT within the predetermined time, it means that other calling UEs are unlikely to page themselves (called UE). Then the UE needs to switch back to the first network at the end of the predetermined time and perform other services in time; thus, the UE can efficiently complete other data services in the first network.

[0104] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the method further includes:

[0105] Step S14: After completing the MO, switching the UE back to the first network.

[0106] Completing the MO here means that the calling service ends. In some embodiments, the completing the MO includes: completing the voice call with the called UE based on the voice call connection.

[0107] Exemplarily, the first UE sends a mobile calling message to the second UE, and if the call between the first UE and the second UE ends, it is determined that the MO is completed.

[0108] In one embodiment, completing the MO includes:

[0109] Based on the voice call connection, a voice call with the called UE is completed through the network side entity of the second network.

[0110] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, if the UE completes the MO, the UE can be switched back to the first network. In this way, the embodiment of the present disclosure can switch to the first network in time to perform other data services after the UE completes the calling service, so that the UE can efficiently complete other data services in the first network.

[0111] The following provides specific examples in combination with any of the above embodiments:

[0112] Example 1

[0113] Figure 6 A method for processing voice communication is provided, the method comprising the following steps:

[0114] Step S201: Detecting that the EPS fallback of the UE fails;

[0115] In an optional embodiment, when the UE falls back from the first network to the second network, the EPS fallback situation is detected; and it is determined that the EPS fallback failure is detected.

[0116] Step S202: Initiate voice registration in the second network;

[0117] In an optional embodiment, the UE sends a voice registration request in the second network.

[0118] In another optional embodiment, the UE sends a voice registration request to a network-side entity of the second network; and receives a confirmation message returned by the network-side entity of the second network based on the voice registration request.

[0119] Step S203: Determine whether the EPS fallback failure is the EPS fallback failure of the MO; if so, execute step S204; if not, execute step S206;

[0120] In an optional embodiment, the UE determines whether the EPS fallback failure is an EPS fallback failure of the MO; if so, execute step S204; if not, execute step S207.

[0121] Step S204: Initiate the MO on the second network;

[0122] In an optional embodiment, the UE sends a paging request message to a network-side entity of the second network, wherein the paging request message is used to request to establish a voice communication connection with the called UE.

[0123] In another optional embodiment, the UE sends a paging request message to the network side entity of the second network; and receives a paging confirmation message returned by the network side entity of the second network, wherein the paging confirmation message indicates that the called UE confirms the establishment of the voice call connection.

[0124] Step S205: Determine that the MO is completed;

[0125] In an optional embodiment, the UE determines to complete the voice call with the called UE based on the voice call connection.

[0126] Step S206: Start the timer and receive MT;

[0127] In an optional embodiment, the UE starts a timer; and receives a paging message sent by a network side entity of the second network within a timing period of the timer.

[0128] In one embodiment, the timing time of the timer is the predetermined time in the above embodiment.

[0129] Step S207: if the MT is received within the timing time of the timer, it is determined that the MT is completed; or if the MT is not received within the preset time of the timer, it is determined that the end time of the timer is reached;

[0130] In an optional embodiment, if the UE receives a paging message sent by the network side entity of the second network within a predetermined time of the timer, it determines to establish a voice call connection with the calling UE; and based on the voice call connection, completes the voice call with the calling UE;

[0131] Alternatively, if the UE does not receive a paging message sent by the network side entity of the second network within the timing time of the timer, it is determined that the end time of the timer has been reached.

[0132] Step S208: Switch back to the first network.

[0133] In an optional embodiment, the UE switches back to the first network for registration.

[0134] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the EPS fallback failure when the UE falls back from the first network to the second network causes the voice service to fail, the voice service can be directly performed on the second network; this allows the UE to continuously perform the voice service, improving the user experience of the voice service. In addition, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, whether it is a MO service failure or a MT service failure caused by the EPS fallback failure, the MO service can be re-performed or the MT can be waited for to ensure the continuity of the MO service or the MT. Moreover, compared with the prior art, if the UE still performs EPS fallback in the second network after the EPS fallback fails, the embodiment of the present disclosure can also reduce the occurrence of EPS fallback failure again, thereby saving the UE's power consumption and resources.

[0135] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the UE receives an MT within a predetermined time, it can be switched back to the first network after the MT ends; or if the UE does not receive an MT within a predetermined time, it can be switched to the first network when the predetermined time is reached. In this way, the embodiment of the present disclosure can switch to the first network in a timely manner to perform other data services after the UE completes the called service, so that the UE can efficiently complete other data services in the first network. Alternatively, if the UE completes the MO, the UE can be switched back to the first network. In this way, the embodiment of the present disclosure can also switch to the first network in a timely manner to perform other data services after the UE completes the calling service, so that the UE can efficiently complete other data services in the first network.
