[0046] In order to make the purposes, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0047] The terms "first", "second", "third", "fourth" and the like in the description and claims of the present application and the above drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and do not necessarily have to describe a particular order or sequence. It should be understood that the data thus used can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances. For example, the first information can also be referred to as the second information, and similarly, the second information can also be referred to as the first information, without departing from the scope of the present application.

[0048] It should be further understood that the terms "comprising", "including", "containing", "having" indicate the presence of the described features, steps, operations, elements, components, kinds, and / or groups, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, steps, operations, elements, components, kinds, and / or groups.

[0049] The terms "or" and "and / or" used herein are interpreted as inclusive, or mean any one or any combination. Therefore, "A, B or C" or "A, B and / or C" means "any of the following: A; B; C; A and B; A and C; B and C; A, B and C". The exception to this definition will occur only when a combination of elements, functions, steps or operations are in some way inherently mutually exclusive.

[0050] With the gradual development of 5G networks, more and more 4G users replace 5G terminals. In the case of 5G network coverage, users can realize no card replacement, no number replacement, and no manual operation to open 5G services through 5G automatic account opening.

[0051] In the 4G era, user data of mobile networks is generally stored in HSS. HSS is a user database of the 4G core network, used to store and manage user data such as 4G user subscription information, authentication information, location information, etc. In the 5G era, user data is stored in a converged network element. When users upgrade from 4G to 5G, for operators, it involves the migration of user data from HSS to the converged network element.

[0052] According to the different automatic account opening trigger stages, three modes of AMF registration trigger, authentication trigger and AMF slice acquisition trigger can be divided. The AMF registration trigger refers to that the fusion network element judges whether the user meets the 5G automatic account opening condition in the registration stage initiated by the AMF to the fusion network element. The authentication trigger and the AMF slice acquisition trigger refer to that the fusion network element judges whether the user meets the 5G automatic account opening condition in the authentication stage or in the process of acquiring slice subscription information of the AMF to the fusion network element.

[0053] In the prior art, after the above process triggers the 5G service opening, the 5G account opening instruction is generally sent from the billing system to the fusion network element after the 5G service opening is completed in the billing system, and the user authentication data stored in the HSS is deleted after the fusion network element acquires the user authentication data from the HSS, and the 5G user subscription of the fusion network element is completed after the authentication of the fusion network element.

[0054] The above opening mode is applied to the mixed networking of the HSS and the fusion network element of the same manufacturer. The HSS directly transmits the user authentication data to the fusion network element, which can ensure that the user equipment can access the 5G network after the fusion network element completes the 5G user subscription. However, when the HSS and the fusion network element of different manufacturers are mixed, the user authentication data of the billing system is inconsistent with the user authentication data of the fusion network element, which leads to the authentication failure of the fusion network element, and the correct user authentication information is not stored in the HSS, the fusion network element and the billing system, so the user must supplement the card to normally use the 5G network.

[0055] To solve the above problems, the present application provides a 5G service opening method, device, electronic equipment and storage medium. The method comprises the following steps: receiving, by the billing system, a 5G service opening request sent by the fusion network element; determining, by the billing system, that the user meets the 5G service opening condition; obtaining, by the billing system, first user authentication information corresponding to the user identifier in the 5G service opening request from the HSS; replacing, by the billing system, second user authentication information stored in the billing system with the first user authentication information; and sending, by the billing system, a 5G service opening instruction to the fusion network element, so that the fusion network element creates first user authentication data and first user subscription data according to the first user authentication information. By obtaining the user authentication information from the billing system and updating the user authentication information stored in the billing system, the problem that the user cannot use the network due to the inconsistency of the user authentication information between the billing system and the fusion network element after the 5G service is opened is solved.

[0056] The technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail in the following specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes can not be described in detail in some embodiments.

[0057] Unified Data Repository (UDR) is used for the storage of 5G user's integrated subscription data and authentication data. Unified Data Management (UDM) is used to provide access authorization, registration, service continuity and other services for users based on the user subscription data stored in UDR. Authentication Server Function (AUSF) is used to complete the authentication of users accessing from a 3GPP network of 5GC. In the 5G core network, the functions of AUSF, UDR and UDM are implemented through virtualization. However, due to the certain correlation among the functions of the three NFs, some equipment manufacturers will integrate the three NFs into one integrated network element when providing specific products, and the network elements communicate with each other through internal interfaces of the network elements. This integrated network element is called integrated UDM, which can realize the functions of 5G network user data storage, authentication and management according to the demand scenario.

[0058] Figure 1 A scenario diagram of a 5G service opening method provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown. As shown in the figure, Figure 1 After the integrated UDM sends a 5G service opening request to the CBSS, the CBSS determines that the user meets the 5G service opening condition, obtains user authentication information from the HSS, and sends a 5G service opening instruction to the integrated network element, so that the integrated network element creates new user authentication data and user subscription data according to the user authentication information.

[0059] Figure 2 A signaling interaction diagram of a 5G service opening method provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown. As shown in the figure, Figure 2 The method of the present embodiment can include the following steps:

[0060] S201, the integrated UDM sends a 5G service opening request to the CBSS, and the 5G service opening request includes a user identifier.

[0061] In the present embodiment, the user identifier can be a mobile subscriber number (Mobile Subscriber International ISDN / PSTN number, MSISDN) or an international mobile subscriber identity (International Mobile Subscriber Identity, IMSI).

[0062] S202, the CBSS determines that the user meets the 5G service opening condition.

[0063] In the embodiment, it is determined that the user meets the 5G service opening condition, that is, the user is marked as a 5G user, and the integrated order management (IOM) is notified to open the 5G function in the CBSS.

[0064] In S203, the CBSS obtains first user authentication information corresponding to the user identifier from the HSS.

[0065] In the embodiment, the first user authentication information can be a key identifier (KI), which is a key for encrypted data transmission between a SIM card and an operator.

[0066] In S204, the CBSS replaces second user authentication information stored in the CBSS with the first user authentication information.

[0067] In S205, the CBSS sends a 5G service opening instruction to the converged UDM, and the 5G service opening instruction includes the first user authentication information.

[0068] In the embodiment, the second user authentication information stored in the CBSS can also be user KI information. The second user authentication information can be the same as or different from the first user authentication information.

[0069] After the CBSS replaces the second user authentication information stored in the CBSS with the first user authentication information, it can be ensured that the user authentication information of the converged UDM and the CBSS is consistent, thereby avoiding the problem that the user cannot use the 5G network after the converged UDM opens the 5G service.

[0070] In the embodiment, the CBSS sends the 5G service opening instruction to the converged UDM through the IOM, and the CBSS and the converged UDM maintain the same encryption algorithm.

[0071] In S206, the converged UDM creates first user authentication data and first user subscription data according to the first user authentication information.

[0072] In the embodiment, the creation of the first user authentication data and the first user subscription data by the converged UDM indicates that the converged UDM completes the 5G service opening.

[0073] The 5G service opening method provided in the application, after receiving the 5G service opening request sent by the CBSS from the UDM, the CBSS determines that the user meets the 5G service opening condition, then the CBSS obtains the first user authentication information from the HSS, replaces the stored second user authentication information, and sends the 5G service opening instruction to the UDM, and the UDM creates the first user authentication data and the first user subscription data according to the first user authentication information. By obtaining the user authentication information from the CBSS and updating the first user authentication information stored in the CBSS, the first user authentication information of the CBSS and the UDM is consistent after the user opens the 5G service, and the problem that the user cannot use the 5G network is solved.

[0074] The specific implementation mode of step S203 on the basis of the above embodiment can be that the CBSS sends a query instruction to the HSS to query the first user authentication information, so that the HSS returns a query result, wherein the query instruction includes the user identifier, and the query result includes the first user authentication information.

[0075] When the CBSS initiates a request to obtain authentication information from the HSS, the user MSISDN or IMSI is provided, and the HSS can return the first user authentication information query result encrypted by the symmetric key through an open database or an instruction interface mode.

[0076] Figure 3 A signaling interaction diagram of another 5G service opening method provided by an embodiment of the application is shown. As shown in Figure 3 The method of the embodiment can include the following steps:

[0077] S301, a user equipment (User Equipment, UE) sends a first registration request to an AMF, and the first registration request includes a user identifier.

[0078] In the embodiment, the user identifier can be MSISDN or IMSI.

[0079] S302, the AMF sends a first authentication request to a UDM.

[0080] S303, the UDM queries user subscription information according to the user identifier.

[0081] S304, the UDM sends a query response message to the AMF, including a user subscription information not queried message and an authentication failure message.

[0082] In the embodiment, the user has not opened the 5G function in the CBSS, and there is no user subscription information in the UDM, so the UDM authentication fails, and returns an authentication failure message to the AMF.

[0083] S305, the AMF sends a registration response message to the UE, rejecting the registration.

[0084] In this embodiment, after receiving the authentication failure message, the AMF returns a registration response message to the UE and feeds back the failure cause.

[0085] In this embodiment, after step S305, the 5G automatic provisioning function switch of the converged UDM is turned on.

[0086] S306, the converged UDM sends a 5G service provisioning request to the CBSS, and the 5G service provisioning request includes the user identifier.

[0087] S307, the CBSS determines that the user meets the 5G service provisioning condition.

[0088] S308, the CBSS obtains first user authentication information corresponding to the user identifier from the HSS.

[0089] S309, the CBSS replaces the second user authentication information stored in the CBSS with the first user authentication information.

[0090] S310, the CBSS sends a 5G service provisioning instruction to the converged UDM, and the 5G service provisioning instruction includes the first user authentication information.

[0091] S311, the converged UDM creates first user authentication data and first user subscription data according to the first user authentication information.

[0092] Steps S306-S311 are similar to steps S201-S206 in the embodiment, and will not be described here. Figure 2 The implementation of steps S201-S206 in the embodiment is similar, and will not be described here.

[0093] S312, the CBSS sends a deletion instruction to the HSS, instructing the HSS to delete the second user subscription data and the second user authentication data stored therein.

[0094] In this embodiment, the first user authentication data and the first user subscription data, i.e., the 5G user authentication data and the 5G user subscription data, are created by the converged UDM, and the second user subscription data and the second user authentication data, i.e., the 4G user authentication data and the 4G user subscription data, stored in the HSS are deleted, thereby completing the migration of user data.

[0095] S313, the HSS instructs the UE to re-register.

[0096] In this embodiment, the HSS issues a cancel location update message to a mobility management entity (MME) to request deletion of the originally stored location information. The MME notifies the UE to immediately re-register.

[0097] S314, the UE initiates a second registration request to the AMF again.

[0098] S315, the AMF sends a second authentication request to the converged UDM.

[0099] S316, the converged UDM completes authentication according to the second authentication request, agrees to register, and the UE accesses the 5G network when the first user authentication data and the first user subscription data are queried.

[0100] In this embodiment, the UE reinitiates a 4G registration request, uses the first user authentication data and the first user subscription data of the converged UDM to complete authentication of the user equipment, and the user equipment registers and accesses the 5G network.

[0101] The 5G service opening method of this embodiment, according to the first registration request of the user, the AMF sends an authentication request to the converged UDM, the converged UDM queries the user subscription information according to the user identifier, and returns an authentication failure message and refuses to register after the user subscription information is not queried. Then the converged UDM sends a 5G service opening request to the CBSS, and after the similar 5G service opening process of the embodiment, the CBSS sends a deletion instruction to the HSS, and the HSS deletes the stored second user subscription data and second user authentication data, and completes the user data migration of the user subscription data and the user authentication data from the HSS to the converged UDM. The HSS instructs the UE to re-register, and after authentication by the converged UDM, the UE accesses the 5G network. This method enables the user to normally use the 5G network after opening the 5G service. Figure 2
