[0103] Currently, the OSS or the BSS can send the emergency power supply strategy to the EMS, or the device manufacturer can internally store the emergency power supply strategy. After receiving the emergency power supply strategy, the EMS can send a command to turn on the emergency power supply feature of the network element, and can determine the correspondence between the emergency power supply strategy and the operation, and then send the emergency power supply strategy and the correspondence between the emergency power supply strategy and the operation to the network element. The emergency power supply strategy can be understood as a strategy adopted by the network element when the power supply system is powered by a non-mains power supply. One emergency power supply strategy can correspond to one operation, such as carrier shutdown, symbol shutdown, and frequency reduction. The emergency power supply feature can also be referred to as an emergency power supply function. The emergency power supply feature can be understood as a specific operation adopted by the network element when the power supply system is powered by a non-mains power supply, that is, when the network element turns on the emergency power supply feature, the network element can execute the operation corresponding to the emergency power supply strategy. When the network element does not turn on the emergency power supply feature, even if the network element receives the emergency power supply strategy, the network element will not execute the operation corresponding to the emergency power supply strategy. The network element can detect the power supply condition of the power supply system. When the network element detects that the power supply system is powered by a battery, the network element can execute the operation corresponding to the emergency power supply strategy according to the emergency power supply strategy. For example, the BSS sends the emergency power supply strategy to the EMS. The EMS can configure the operation corresponding to the emergency power supply strategy as carrier shutdown. The EMS sends a command to turn on the emergency power supply feature of the network element. After receiving the command, the network element can turn on the emergency power supply feature. When the network element detects that the power supply system is powered by a battery, the network element can determine that the operation corresponding to the emergency power supply strategy is carrier shutdown, and then the network element can execute carrier shutdown. However, since the emergency power supply strategy is issued by the OSS / BSS or internally stored by the device manufacturer, the operation cannot be adjusted in real time according to the demand, thereby affecting the network performance. For example, the OSS / BSS sends the emergency power supply strategy to the EMS, and the emergency power supply strategy is to turn on carrier shutdown when the power supply system is powered by a battery. The EMS sends a command to turn on the emergency power supply feature of the network element according to the emergency power supply strategy. When the network element detects that the power supply system is powered by a battery, the network element will execute the operation corresponding to the emergency power supply strategy, that is, turn on carrier shutdown, even in the case that the battery is fully charged. This makes the users in the cell unable to normally use the network. For another example, since the emergency power supply strategy is fixed, it is difficult to meet the needs of all power supply systems, and the adaptability to different power supply systems is poor, thereby greatly affecting the network performance.

[0104] In summary, since the current emergency power supply strategy is fixed, the operation adopted can also be fixed, which makes the network unable to normally operate. Based on this, the present application provides an emergency power supply method, which can dynamically adjust the operation to be executed by the network element, and reduce the influence on the network performance.

[0105] With reference to the foregoing Figure 2 , in Figure 2In some embodiments, the EMS can perform operations such as intent translation, intent decomposition, and conflict detection. In actual applications, the EMS can receive an intent (for example, intent-NOP) of an upper-layer network element through an external interface, and feed back to the sender of the intent the achievement of the intent. The EMS can also send a sub-intent decomposed from the intent to a lower-layer network element. Figure 1 In some embodiments, the EMS can perform operations such as intent translation, intent decomposition, and conflict detection. In actual applications, the EMS can receive an intent (for example, intent-NOP) of an upper-layer network element through an external interface, and feed back to the sender of the intent the achievement of the intent. The EMS can also send a sub-intent decomposed from the intent to a lower-layer network element.

The EMS can also send a sub-intent decomposed from the intent to a lower-layer network element. Figure 3An intent architecture of embodiments of the present application is introduced.

[0110] Figure 3 An intent architecture of embodiments of the present application is introduced.

[0111] The intent architecture of embodiments of the present application can include an intent consumer and an intent system, and the intent system can include an intent management module, an intent translation module, a knowledge management module, and an intent execution module. The intent system can be used to process the intent of the intent consumer. After the intent system receives the intent issued by the intent consumer, the object of intent execution can be obtained according to the intent.

[0112] It should be noted that the intent system illustrated in embodiments of the present application does not constitute a specific limitation on the intent system. In other embodiments of the present application, the intent system can include more or less modules than the illustration, or combine the illustrated modules, or split the illustrated modules to achieve the purpose of executing the intent.

[0113] The intent consumer is used to issue the intent. In embodiments of the present application, the intent consumer is not limited, and the intent consumer can be OSS, BSS, device manufacturer, application program, terminal device, operator, etc. In other words, in embodiments of the present application, the system, device, etc. that issues the intent to the management system (such as NMS, EMS) can be referred to as the intent consumer.

[0114] The intent management module can include an intent instance library and an intent pattern library, which are used for intent pattern and intent instance management.

[0115] The intent translation module is used for intent translation. Exemplarily, the intent can be translated into executable commands through the intent translation module.

[0116] The knowledge management module can include an intent knowledge base, which is used for intent knowledge management.

[0117] The intent execution module is used to execute the intent.

[0118] In combination with Figure 2The network system 200 shown, the CSC 201, the CSP 202, the NOP 203, and the NEP 204 in the network system 200 can be an intent consumer. It can be understood that, according to different intent consumers, the intent system can be deployed in different objects. For example, when the CSP 202 is an intent consumer, the intent system can be deployed in the NOP 203. The CSP 202 can be a BSS, the NOP 203 can be an NMS, and the NEP 204 can be an EMS. The intent system is deployed in the NMS. The NMS can be used to manage the EMS. After the NMS receives an intent issued by the BSS, it is determined according to the intent that the object to be managed is the EMS, and then the intent system can issue an instruction to the EMS according to the intent. For another example, when the CSP 202 is an intent consumer, the intent system can also be deployed in the NEP 204. The CSP 202 can be a BSS, the NOP 203 can be an NMS, and the NEP 204 can be an EMS. The intent system is deployed in the EMS. After the NMS receives an intent issued by the BSS, the NMS can send the intent to the EMS, and then the EMS translates the intent and performs an operation corresponding to the intent.

[0119] Similarly, when the NOP 203 is an intent consumer, the intent system can be deployed in the NEP 204 or an object managed by the NEP 204. Specifically, the NOP 203 can be an NMS, the NEP 204 can be an EMS, and the object managed by the NEP 204 can be a network element.

[0120] It should be noted that, Figure 3 The intent architecture shown is only an example, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit the intent architecture. Other intent architectures can also be used in the embodiments of the present application.

[0121] The intent architecture of the embodiments of the present application is introduced above, and the method for providing backup power provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below. Figures 4 to 6 The method for providing backup power provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below.

[0122] Figure 4 A schematic flowchart of a method 400 for providing backup power provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown, and the flow includes the following steps.

[0123] S401, an intent consumer sends a first intent.

[0124] The intent consumer can be an OSS, a BSS, a device manufacturer, an application program, a terminal device, an operator, and the like. The embodiments of the present application take the BSS as an example.

[0125] The BSS can send a first intention to the management system, the first intention being used to indicate a backup power duration and / or a power saving preference and / or a backup power preference. The backup power duration can be understood as a running time of the network element in the case of battery power supply. The power saving preference can be understood as a power saving effect that the intention consumer wants to achieve, and different power saving preferences can correspond to different backup power durations. For example, when the power saving preference is high, the network element can shut down most functions and the backup power duration is long; when the power saving preference is low, the network element can shut down some functions that have little impact on network performance to ensure network performance and the backup power duration is short. Similarly, the backup power preference can be understood as a backup power effect that the intention consumer wants to achieve, and different backup power preferences can correspond to different backup power durations. For example, the backup power preference high can correspond to a backup power duration of 5 hours, and the backup power preference low can correspond to a backup power duration of 3 hours. In summary, when the first intention indicates the power saving preference or the backup power preference, the backup power duration can be obtained by translating the first intention. The first intention can include an intent driven action and an intent driven object. The intent driven action includes an intent driven action name and an intent driven action attribute, and the intent driven action attribute can include one or more attributes required to complete the intent driven action. The intent driven object information can include an intent driven object name and an intent driven object attribute, and the intent driven object attribute can be used to represent the attributes of the object instance. After the management system receives the first intention, the first intention can be translated, and thus the backup power duration and / or the power saving preference and / or the backup power preference can be obtained. For example, the BSS needs the communication device of the communication site to maintain a business running time of 3 hours in the case of battery power supply, the BSS can determine the first intention, and then send the first intention to the management system. The management system receives and translates the first intention, and can obtain the intention of the BSS, that is, to maintain the communication device to maintain the business running for 3 hours in the case of battery power supply.

[0126] The power saving preference can also be understood as a power saving level or a power saving mode, and different power saving levels or power saving modes correspond to different power saving effects that the user wants to achieve. Similarly, the backup power preference can also be understood as a backup power level or a backup power mode, and different backup power levels or backup power modes correspond to different backup power effects that the user wants to achieve.

[0127] Optionally, the first intention can include condition information, the condition information being used to indicate a condition for the management system to execute the first intention. For example, the condition information can indicate that the management system executes the first intention when the power supply system is powered by the battery.

[0128] The embodiments of the present application do not limit the manner in which the BSS sends the first intention. For example, the BSS can send first request information to the management system, the first request information including information of the first intention.

[0129] In some embodiments, the first request information can be used to request creation of the first intent. The information of the first intent can include the first intent-driven action information and the first intent-driven object information.

[0130] In some embodiments, the first request information can be used to request implementation of the first intent. The information of the first intent can include the first intent-driven action information and the first intent-driven object information.

[0131] In some embodiments, the first request information can be used to request modification of the first intent, and the information of the first intent to be modified can include the first intent-driven action information and / or the first intent-driven object information.

[0132] S402, the management system receives the first intent.

[0133] Optionally, the management system includes an NMS and an EMS, and the intent system is deployed in the NMS.

[0134] In some embodiments, when the first request information is used to request creation of the first intent, the NMS receives the first request information, and can create the first intent according to the first intent-driven action and the first intent-driven object. The NMS translates the first intent and executes the execution strategy corresponding to the first intent.

[0135] In some embodiments, when the first request information is used to request implementation of the first intent, the NMS receives the first request information, and translates the first request information into the execution strategy corresponding to the first intent.

[0136] In some embodiments, when the first request information is used to request modification of the first intent, the NMS receives the first request information, and modifies the information corresponding to the first intent. The NMS translates the modified first intent and executes the execution strategy corresponding to the modified first intent.

[0137] Optionally, the management system includes an NMS and an EMS, and the intent system is deployed in the EMS.

[0138] In some embodiments, when the first request information is used to request creation of the first intent, the NMS receives the first request information, and can send the first request information to the EMS. The EMS can create the first intent according to the first intent-driven action and the first intent-driven object. The EMS translates the first intent and executes the execution strategy corresponding to the first intent.

[0139] In some embodiments, when the first request information is used to request implementation of the first intent, the NMS receives the first request information, and can send the first request information to the EMS. The EMS receives the first request information, and translates the first request information into the execution strategy corresponding to the first intent.

[0140] In some embodiments, when the first request information is used to request to modify the first intent, the NMS receives the first request information, and can send the first request information to the EMS. The EMS receives the first request information and modifies information corresponding to the first intent. The NMS translates the modified first intent and executes an execution strategy corresponding to the modified first intent.

[0141] Optionally, the management system includes the NMS and the EMS, and the intent system is deployed in the EMS.

[0142] In some embodiments, when the first request information is used to request to create the first intent, the NMS receives the first request information, and can create the first intent according to the first intent-driven action and the first intent-driven object. The EMS translates the first intent and executes the first intent to generate second request information including information of a second intent indicating the power-on duration. The description of the second request information can refer to the description of the first request information, which is not repeated here. The NMS sends the second intent information to the EMS, and the EMS receives and translates the second intent and executes an execution strategy corresponding to the second intent.

[0143] In some embodiments, when the first request information is used to request to implement the first intent, the NMS receives the first request information, translates the first request information into an execution strategy corresponding to the first intent to generate second request information including information of a second intent indicating the power-on duration. The NMS sends the second intent information to the EMS, and the EMS receives and translates the second intent and executes an execution strategy corresponding to the second intent.

[0144] In some embodiments, when the first request information is used to request to modify the first intent, the NMS receives the first request information, and modifies information corresponding to the first intent. The NMS translates the modified first intent and executes an execution strategy corresponding to the modified first intent to generate second request information including information of a second intent indicating the power-on duration. The NMS sends the second intent information to the EMS, and the EMS receives and translates the second intent and executes an execution strategy corresponding to the second intent.

[0145] Optionally, the management system includes the NMS and the EMS, and the intent system is deployed in the EMS.

[0146] Specifically, the BSS can directly issue the first intent to the EMS.

[0147] In some embodiments, when the first request information is used to request to create the first intent, the EMS receives the first request information, and can create the first intent according to the first intent-driven action and the first intent-driven object. The EMS translates the first intent and executes an execution strategy corresponding to the first intent.

[0148] In some embodiments, when the first request information is used to request implementation of the first intent, the EMS receives the first request information, translates the first request information into an execution strategy corresponding to the first intent.

[0149] In some embodiments, when the first request information is used to request modification of the first intent, the EMS receives the first request information, modifies information corresponding to the first intent. The NMS translates the modified first intent and executes an execution strategy corresponding to the modified first intent.

[0150] S403, the management system detects the power supply system.

[0151] Specifically, the management system can detect the state of the power supply system and the power supply mode of the power supply system. The management system detecting the power supply mode of the power supply system can be understood as that the management system can perceive that the power supply mode of the power supply system changes, for example, from mains power supply to battery power supply.

[0152] Further, when the power supply system includes a battery, the management system detects the state of the power supply system, including: the management system detects the state of the battery.

[0153] Alternatively, the management system can send first query information to the power supply system, the first query information being used to request the state of the battery of the power supply system and the power supply mode of the power supply system. For example, the management system can request the model of the battery, the type of the battery (such as lithium battery, lead-acid battery, etc.), the number of charge and discharge of the battery, and the power supply mode of the power supply system from the power supply system. In some embodiments, the management system can send the first query information to the power supply system in a transparent manner, that is, the management system first sends the first query information to the network element, and the network element sends the first query information to the power supply system. In other embodiments, the management system can directly send the first query information to the power supply system. For example, the management system and the power supply system can be two subsystems of the network system, and the management system and the power supply system are coupled, so that the two systems can send information to each other.

[0154] After receiving the first query information, the power supply system can send first feedback information according to the first query information, the first feedback information being used to feedback the state of the battery of the power supply system and the power supply mode. In some embodiments, the power supply system can send the first feedback information to the management system in a transparent manner, that is, the power supply system first sends the first feedback information to the network element, and the network element sends the first feedback information to the management system. In other embodiments, the power supply system can directly send the first feedback information to the management system. For example, the management system and the power supply system can be two subsystems of the network system, and the management system and the power supply system are coupled, so that the two systems can send information to each other.

[0155] Further, the management system can periodically detect the power system to ensure that the state and power supply mode of the power system can be learned in time. For example, the management system can send first query information to the power system every 5 minutes.

[0156] Alternatively, the management system can send second query information and third query information to the power system, the second query information being used to request the state of the battery of the power system, and the third query information being used to request the power supply mode of the power system. The description of the management system sending the second query information and the third query information can be referred to the description of the management system sending the first query information, and will not be repeated here.

[0157] After receiving the second query information and the third query information, the power system can send second feedback information and third feedback information according to the second query information and the third query information, the second feedback information and the third feedback information being used to feedback the state of the battery of the power system and the power supply mode of the power system. The description of the power system sending the second feedback information and the third feedback information can be referred to the description of the power system sending the first feedback information, and will not be repeated here.

[0158] It should be noted that the management system sending the second query information and the third query information does not have actual sequence, that is, the management system can send the second query information first, or the third query information first, or the second query information and the third query information at the same time.

[0159] Alternatively, in other embodiments, the power system can report the power supply mode and the state of the power system to the management system.

[0160] S404, when the management system detects that the power system meets the preset condition, the management system determines a first operation according to the first state and the first intention of the power system.

[0161] Alternatively, in some embodiments, the preset condition is that the power system supplies power to the network element by a non-mains power supply mode. For example, the power system can supply power to the network element by a battery. For another example, the power system can supply power to the network element by photovoltaic power generation. For another example, the power system can supply power to the network element by wind power generation.

[0162] Alternatively, when the management system detects that the preset condition is met, the management system can generate indication information according to the first state and the first intention of the power system, the indication information being used to instruct the network element to perform a corresponding first operation. For example, when the management system detects that the power system is powered by a battery, the management system can determine that a first operation needs to be performed according to the first intention and the first state of the power system, that is, carrier shutdown, and then the management system can send indication information, the indication information being used to instruct the network element to perform the carrier shutdown operation.

[0163] Optionally, in some embodiments, the power supply system supplies power to the network element through a battery, and the state of the power supply system includes a remaining power of the battery. The management system can determine the operation to be performed according to the remaining power of the battery. For example, when the management system detects that the power supply system supplies power through the battery, the management system can select different operations according to whether the remaining power of the battery is greater than a first threshold (for example, the first threshold is 70%). When the remaining power of the battery is greater than the first threshold, the management system can determine that the operation to be performed by the network element is a first operation; when the remaining power of the battery is less than the first threshold, the management system can determine that the operation to be performed by the network element is a second operation.

[0164] Further, in some embodiments, when it is detected that the first state of the battery changes to the second state, for example, the remaining power of the battery changes, the management system can adjust the operation to be performed by the network element in real time according to the change of the remaining power. For example, the management system detects that the remaining power of the battery is 80%, determines the operation to be a first operation and sends the first operation to the network element, and the network element can perform the first operation. As the network element operates, when the remaining power of the battery decreases to 70%, the management system can determine the operation to be a second operation and send the second operation to the network element, and the network element can perform the second operation after receiving the second operation.

[0165] It should be noted that when the network element performs the second operation, the network element can stop performing the first operation, or can continue to perform the first operation, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this. For example, the management system can instruct the network element to continue to perform the first operation.

[0166] Optionally, in some embodiments, the power supply system supplies power to the network element through a battery, and the state of the power supply system includes a remaining power of the battery. The management system can determine the operation to be performed according to the remaining power of the battery and the first intention. For example, when the management system detects that the power supply system supplies power through the battery, the management system can determine different operations according to whether the remaining power of the battery is greater than a first threshold (for example, the first threshold is 70%) and whether the backup power duration (for example, the second threshold is 3 hours) obtained according to the first intention is greater than a second threshold. When the remaining power of the battery is greater than the first threshold and the backup power duration is less than the second threshold, the management system can determine that the operation to be performed is a first operation; when the remaining power of the battery is greater than the first threshold and the backup power duration is greater than the second threshold, the management system can determine that the operation to be performed is a second operation; when the remaining power of the battery is less than the first threshold and the backup power duration is less than the second threshold, the management system can determine that the operation to be performed is the second operation; and when the remaining power of the battery is less than the first threshold and the backup power duration is greater than the second threshold, the management system can determine that the operation to be performed is a third operation.

[0167] Similarly, the management system can adjust the operation to be performed by the network element in real time according to the change of the battery state, which will not be described herein.

[0168] Alternatively, in some embodiments, the power supply system supplies power to the network element through the battery, and the state of the power supply system can include the remaining power of the battery and the load current. The management system can determine the operation to be performed by the network element according to the remaining power, the load current and the first intention. Specifically, the management system can estimate the remaining backup power duration according to the remaining power and the load current, and then the management system can determine the operation to be performed by the network element according to the relationship between the remaining backup power duration and the backup power duration determined according to the first intention. For example, the management system estimates the remaining backup power duration to be 3 hours according to the remaining power and the load current, and the backup power duration determined according to the first intention is 2 hours, and then the management system selects an operation with small impact on network performance, for example, the first operation. For another example, the management system estimates the remaining backup power to be 3 hours according to the remaining power and the load current, and the backup power duration is 4 hours, and then the management system can select an operation with relatively low power saving, for example, the second operation.

[0169] Alternatively, in some other embodiments, the network element can estimate the remaining backup power duration according to the remaining power and the load current, and then send the estimated remaining backup power duration to the management system, and the management system determines the operation to be performed by the network element according to the estimated remaining backup power duration and the backup power duration determined according to the first intention.

[0170] Alternatively, in some embodiments, the power supply system can directly calculate the remaining backup power duration, and then the management system can directly obtain the remaining backup power duration and determine the operation to be performed by the network element according to the first intention.

[0171] Further, in some embodiments, when the power supply system supplies power through the battery, the state of the power supply system can further include the temperature, voltage of the power supply system and the type of the battery. For example, considering that the decay rate of the battery is different at different temperatures, the management system determines the first remaining backup power duration through the remaining power and the load current, and further determines the second remaining backup power duration in combination with the temperature. For example, the management system determines the remaining backup power duration to be 5 hours through the remaining power and the load current, when the temperature is 60℃, the management system finally determines the remaining backup power duration to be 3.5 hours, and when the temperature is 50℃, the management system finally determines the remaining backup power duration to be 4 hours.

[0172] It should be understood that the above description only takes the remaining power, the load current, the temperature and the voltage of the power supply system as examples, but the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto. For example, when the power supply system supplies power through the battery, the state of the power supply system can further include the charge and discharge times and the type of the battery.

[0173] Optionally, in some embodiments, S404, when the management system detects that the power system meets the preset condition, the management system determines the first operation according to the first state of the power system and the first intention, including: when the management system detects that the power system meets the preset condition, the management system determines the first operation according to the first state of the power system, the first quality of service (QoS) and the first intention. The QoS refers to a technology used to solve network delay and congestion and the like. When the network is congested, data may be discarded, and different QoS can be provided to meet the needs of users. The management system can determine the corresponding first operation according to the first state of the power system, the first QoS of the network element and the first intention.

[0174] For example, taking the state of the power system as the remaining power as an example, when the management system detects that the power system is powered by the battery, the management system can determine the remaining standby power duration according to the remaining power. If the standby power duration indicated by the first intention is short and the first QoS of the network element requires high, the management system can determine an operation that has little effect on network performance.

[0175] For example, taking the state of the power system as the remaining power as an example, when the management system detects that the power system is powered by the battery, the management system can determine the remaining standby power duration according to the remaining power. If the standby power duration indicated by the first intention is long and the first QoS of the network element requires low, the management system can determine an operation that has little effect on the standby power duration.

[0176] S405, the management system sends the first operation.

[0177] Specifically, the management system can send indication information to the network element, and the indication information is used to instruct the network element to execute the first operation determined by the management system.

[0178] S406, the network element executes the first operation.

[0179] Specifically, the network element can receive the indication information of the management system, and execute the first operation according to the indication information.

[0180] Further, the method 400 further includes: when the management system detects that the first state of the power system changes to a second state, the management system determines a second operation according to the first intention and the second state of the power system. For example, when the management system detects that the remaining power of the battery is 80%, the management system determines the operation as symbol off. As the service of the network element runs, when the remaining power of the battery decreases to 70%, the management system can determine the operation as carrier off.

[0181] In the embodiments of the present application, the management system can determine the operation according to the state of the power supply system and the received intention, and then instruct the network element to perform the operation, so that the network element can perform the corresponding operation. Since the management system determines the operation that the network element needs to perform according to the state of the power supply system and the intention, the operation can be consistent with the state and intention of the power supply system, thereby improving the flexibility of the power supply of the network system and reducing the impact on the network performance.

[0182] Figure 5 A schematic flow chart of another power supply method 500 provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown. Based on the method 400 shown above, in some optional embodiments, in step S404, when the management system detects that the power supply system meets the preset condition, the first operation is determined according to the first state and the first intention of the power supply system, including: Figure 4

[0183] S4041, the management system determines the first strategy according to the first intention.

[0184] Optionally, after receiving the first intention, the management system can obtain the power supply duration according to the first intention. For example, when the first intention indicates the power supply duration, the management system can obtain the power supply duration after translating the first intention. For another example, when the first intention indicates the power saving preference, the management system can obtain the power saving preference after translating the first intention, and then the management system can obtain the power supply duration according to the power saving preference. For another example, when the first intention indicates the power supply preference, the management system can obtain the power supply preference after translating the first intention, and then the management system can obtain the power supply duration according to the power supply preference. For example, the intention system includes a knowledge management module, and the management system can query the power supply duration corresponding to the power saving preference and the power supply preference through the intention knowledge base in the knowledge management module. After determining the power supply duration, the management system can configure the first strategy. Specifically, after determining the first intention, the management system can determine the first strategy according to the first intention, and then the management system sends the first strategy to the network element. The first strategy can indicate the corresponding relationship between the power supply strategy and the operation. In other embodiments, the first strategy can also indicate the corresponding relationship between the power supply strategy, the state of the battery and the operation. In other words, the first strategy can be understood as a table including the corresponding relationship between the power supply strategy, the state of the battery and the operation, or can include a table including the corresponding relationship between the power supply strategy and the operation. The state of the battery can include the type of the battery, the remaining capacity of the battery, the load current of the battery, the number of charging and discharging of the battery, etc.

[0185] For example, Table 1 shows a first strategy provided by the embodiments of the present application. As shown in Table 1, the operation corresponding to the first power supply strategy is not to take power saving action; the operation corresponding to the second power supply strategy is to symbolically shut down; and the operation corresponding to the third power supply strategy is to shut down the carrier.

[0186] Table 1 first strategy​

[0187] Backup strategy Operation First No action Second Symbol off Third Carrier off

[0188] For example, Table 2 shows another first strategy provided by the embodiment of the present application, in which the state of the battery is the remaining power. As shown in Table 2, the remaining power of 100%, 80%, and 60% are the demarcation points of the power saving strategy, and the first strategy is configured as follows: when the remaining power of the battery is greater than 80%, the power saving strategy is the first power saving strategy, and the corresponding operation is to take no power saving action; when the remaining power of the battery is greater than 60% and less than 80%, the power saving strategy is the second power saving strategy, and the corresponding operation is to turn off the symbol; and when the remaining power of the battery is less than 60%, the power saving strategy is the third power saving strategy, and the corresponding operation is to turn off the carrier. When the remaining power of the battery is at the demarcation point, the power saving strategy can be configured as the power saving strategy greater than the remaining power at the demarcation point, or as the power saving strategy less than the remaining power at the demarcation point. For example, when the remaining power is 80%, the power saving strategy can be the first power saving strategy or the second power saving strategy, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present application.

[0189] Table 2 first strategy

[0190] Remaining power / % Backup strategy Operation 100 First No action 80 Second Symbol off 60 Third Carrier off

[0191] For example, Table 3 shows another first strategy provided by the embodiment of the present application, in which the state of the battery is the remaining power and the load current. As shown in Table 3, the first strategy is configured as follows: when the load current of the battery is high load, and the remaining power is greater than 90%, the power saving strategy is the first power saving strategy, and the corresponding operation is to take no power saving action; when the load current of the battery is high load, and the remaining power is greater than 70% and less than 90%, the power saving strategy is the second power saving strategy, and the corresponding operation is to turn off the symbol; and when the load current of the battery is high load, and the remaining power is less than 70%, the power saving strategy is the third power saving strategy, and the corresponding operation is to turn off the carrier. The description of the load current being medium load and low load can be referred to the description above, and will not be repeated here. The high load current, the medium load current, and the low load current can be set according to different network elements, for example, the full load current is 50A, and the load current of 40A-50A can be considered as the high load current, the load current of 25A-40A can be considered as the medium load current, and the load current of 0A-25A can be considered as the low load current.

[0192] Table 3 first strategy

[0193]

[0194] It should be understood that the first strategy shown in Table 1 to Table 3 is only illustrative, and the embodiments of the present application can also configure different first strategies according to different states of the battery.

[0195] Optionally, after determining the first intention, the management system can configure a first strategy according to the first intention and the network element managed by the management system, and then send the first strategy to the network element. For example, the management system is an EMS, which can manage the first network element and the second network element, and the EMS can determine different first strategies according to the first network element and the second network element.

[0196] Exemplarily, Table 4 shows another first strategy provided by the embodiments of the present application, wherein the state of the battery is the remaining power. As can be seen from Table 4, similarly, when the remaining power is greater than 80%, the power backup strategy of the first network element is the first power backup strategy, and the corresponding operation is to take no power saving action; when the remaining power is greater than 60% and less than 80%, the power backup strategy of the first network element is the second power backup strategy, and the corresponding operation is to symbolically shut down; when the remaining power is less than 60%, the power backup strategy of the first network element is the third power backup strategy, and the corresponding operation is to carrier shut down. Similarly, the description for the second network element can refer to the description for the first network element, and will not be described here.

[0197] Table 4 first strategy

[0198]

[0199] The above Table 1 to Table 4 introduce that one power backup strategy corresponds to one operation, but the embodiments of the present application do not limit this, and one power backup strategy can also correspond to multiple operations, and then according to the state of the power supply system to determine the specific corresponding different operations, that is, one power backup strategy can be understood as including multiple operations, and the multiple operations are distinguished by the state of the power supply system.

[0200] Exemplarily, Table 5 shows another first strategy provided by the embodiments of the present application. As can be seen from Table 5, the same power backup strategy can correspond to multiple operations, which is mainly according to different remaining power to correspond to different operations. In other words, one power backup strategy includes multiple operations, and the network element receiving the power backup strategy can select different operations according to different remaining power. For example, the first power backup strategy corresponds to no power saving action when the remaining power is 100%, corresponds to symbolically shutting down when the remaining power is 90%, and corresponds to symbolically shutting down when the remaining power is 70%.

[0201] It can be understood that different standby power strategies can have different effects. For example, the first standby power strategy corresponds to no action, symbol off, and symbol off when the power is 100%, 90%, and 70%, respectively. The second standby power strategy corresponds to symbol off, symbol off, and carrier off when the power is 100%, 90%, and 70%, respectively, where the power saving effect of carrier off is greater than that of symbol off. As can be seen, the power saving effect of the first standby power strategy is worse than that of the second standby power strategy, and similarly, the power saving effect of the second standby power strategy is worse than that of the third standby power strategy. Accordingly, the impact of the first standby power strategy on the network is less than that of the second standby power strategy and the third standby power strategy, and therefore the management device can determine different standby power strategies according to the state of the power supply system and the first intention. For specific descriptions, please refer to the following description.

[0202] Table 5 first strategy

[0203]

[0204] Exemplarily, Table 6 shows another first strategy provided by the embodiments of the present application. As can be seen from Table 6, the same standby power strategy can correspond to multiple operations, which are mainly distinguished according to different remaining power and load current. In other words, one standby power strategy includes multiple operations, and the network element can select different operations according to different remaining power and load current. For example, the first standby power strategy corresponds to no power saving action when the remaining power is 100% and the load current is high load current; corresponds to no power saving action when the remaining power is 100% and the load current is medium load current; corresponds to no power saving action when the remaining power is 100% and the load current is low load current; corresponds to symbol off when the remaining power is 90% and the load current is high load current; corresponds to symbol off when the remaining power is 90% and the load current is medium load current; corresponds to no power saving action when the remaining power is 90% and the load current is low load current; corresponds to carrier off when the remaining power is 70% and the load current is high load current; corresponds to carrier off when the remaining power is 90% and the load current is medium load current; and corresponds to symbol off when the remaining power is 90% and the load current is low load current. Similarly, the description of the second standby power strategy can be referred to the description of the first standby power strategy, and for brevity, will not be repeated here.

[0205] It should be noted that Table 5 and Table 6 only exemplarily introduce that one backup power strategy can correspond to multiple operations, and different operations are determined according to the remaining power or the remaining power and the load current, but are not limited thereto. For example, one backup power strategy can correspond to multiple operations, and different operations can also be distinguished according to the remaining power, the load current, and the voltage. For another example, one backup power strategy can correspond to multiple operations, and different operations can also be distinguished according to the remaining power, the load current, and the temperature. For another example, one backup power strategy can correspond to multiple operations, and different operations can also be distinguished according to the remaining power, the load current, the voltage, and the temperature.

[0206] Table 6: First strategy

[0207]

[0208] Alternatively, in some other embodiments, the network element can configure the first strategy. After the management system determines the first intention, the management system can send indication information for indicating that the network element configures the first strategy. The description of the first strategy can be referred to the description above, and is not described herein again for brevity.

[0209] Exemplarily, Table 7 shows another first strategy provided by the embodiments of the present application. As shown in Table 7, one backup power strategy can correspond to multiple operations, which are mainly distinguished according to different remaining powers and QoSs. In other words, one backup power strategy includes multiple operations, and the network element can select different operations according to different remaining powers and QoSs. For example, the operation corresponding to the first backup power strategy when the remaining power is 100% and the QoS level is high is not taking power saving action; the operation corresponding to the first backup power strategy when the remaining power is 100% and the QoS level is medium is not taking power saving action; the operation corresponding to the first backup power strategy when the remaining power is 100% and the QoS level is low is not taking power saving action; the operation corresponding to the first backup power strategy when the remaining power is 90% and the QoS level is high is symbol off; the operation corresponding to the first backup power strategy when the remaining power is 90% and the QoS level is medium is symbol off; the operation corresponding to the first backup power strategy when the remaining power is 90% and the QoS level is low is not taking power saving action; the operation corresponding to the first backup power strategy when the remaining power is 70% and the QoS level is high is carrier off; the operation corresponding to the first backup power strategy when the remaining power is 90% and the QoS level is medium is carrier off; and the operation corresponding to the first backup power strategy when the remaining power is 70% and the QoS level is low is symbol off. Similarly, the description of the second backup power strategy can be referred to the description of the first backup power strategy, and is not described herein again for brevity.

[0210] It should be noted that Table 5 and Table 6 only exemplarily introduce that one backup power strategy can correspond to multiple operations, and different operations are determined according to the remaining power or the remaining power and the load current, but are not limited thereto. For example, the same backup power strategy can correspond to multiple operations, and different operations can also be distinguished according to the remaining power, the load current, and the voltage. For another example, the same backup power strategy can correspond to multiple operations, and different operations can also be distinguished according to the remaining power, the load current, and the temperature. For another example, the same backup power strategy can correspond to multiple operations, and different operations can also be distinguished according to the remaining power, the load current, the voltage, and the temperature.

[0211] Table 7 first strategy

[0212]

[0213] S4042, when the power supply system meets the preset condition, the management system detects the first backup power strategy according to the first intention and the first state of the power supply system.

[0214] Specifically, the management system detects the power supply system, and when it is detected that the preset condition is met, the management system can determine the first backup power strategy according to the first state of the battery of the power supply system and the first intention. The first backup power strategy can be similar to the form of Table 1 to Table 4, that is, one backup power strategy corresponds to one operation, or can be similar to the form of Table 5 to Table 6, that is, one backup power strategy corresponds to multiple operations, and then different operations are determined according to different power supply systems.

[0215] Optionally, in some embodiments, the power supply system supplies power to the network element through the battery, and the state of the power supply system can include the remaining power of the battery and the load current. The management system can determine the backup power strategy according to the remaining power, the load current, and the first intention. Specifically, the management system can estimate the remaining backup power duration according to the remaining power and the load current, and then the management system can determine the backup power strategy according to the remaining backup power duration and the backup power duration determined according to the first intention. In other words, when the estimated remaining backup power duration is greater than the backup power duration determined according to the first intention, the management system can determine a backup power strategy that has less impact on network performance, and when the estimated remaining backup power duration is less than the backup power duration determined according to the first intention, the management system can determine a backup power strategy that has good power saving effect.

[0216] For example, the first power backup strategy has less influence on network performance, and the second power backup strategy has more influence on network performance. When one power backup strategy corresponds to one operation, the management system determines the first power backup strategy according to the remaining power backup time of 3 hours estimated by the management system according to the remaining power of the battery and the load current and the backup time of 2 hours determined according to the first intention. For another example, the management system determines the second power backup strategy according to the remaining power backup time of 3 hours estimated by the management system according to the remaining power of the battery and the load current and the backup time of 4 hours.

[0217] For example, the first power backup strategy has less influence on network performance, and the second power backup strategy has more influence on network performance. When one power backup strategy corresponds to one operation, the management system determines the first power backup strategy according to the remaining power backup time of 3 hours estimated by the management system according to the remaining power of the battery and the load current and the backup time of 2 hours determined according to the first intention. For another example, the management system determines the second power backup strategy according to the remaining power backup time of 3 hours estimated by the management system according to the remaining power of the battery and the load current and the backup time of 4 hours.

[0218] Further, in some embodiments, when the first state of the battery changes to the second state, for example, the remaining power of the battery changes and / or the load current changes, the management system can adjust the power backup strategy in real time according to the change of the remaining power and / or the load current.

[0219] For example, the first power backup strategy has less influence on network performance, and the second power backup strategy has more influence on network performance. When one power backup strategy corresponds to one operation, the management system determines the first power backup strategy according to the remaining power backup time of 3 hours estimated by the management system according to the remaining power of the battery and the load current and the backup time of 2 hours determined according to the first intention. For another example, the management system determines the second power backup strategy according to the remaining power backup time of 3 hours estimated by the management system according to the remaining power of the battery and the load current and the backup time of 4 hours.

[0220] For another example, the first power backup strategy has less influence on network performance, and the second power backup strategy has more influence on network performance. When one power backup strategy corresponds to multiple operations, the management system determines the power backup strategy with less influence on network performance, for example, the first power backup strategy, according to the remaining power backup time of the battery estimated by the management system according to the remaining power and the load current, and the remaining power backup time determined according to the first intention, which is 2 hours. The network element selects different operations corresponding to the first power backup strategy according to different remaining power. As the network element runs, the remaining power of the battery decreases, for example, from 100% to 60%. At this time, the network element adopts the symbol-off operation, which is the most power-saving operation in the first power backup strategy. However, the management system estimates that the remaining power backup time is 1 hour, and the network element still needs to run for 1.5 hours according to the first intention. That is, the network element cannot achieve the first intention by adopting the first power backup strategy. In order to achieve the first intention, the management system can update the power backup strategy, so that the updated power backup strategy includes an operation that is more power-saving than the symbol-off operation, for example, the carrier-off operation, and then sends the updated power backup strategy to the network element.

[0221] Alternatively, in some other embodiments, the network element can estimate the remaining power backup time of the battery according to the remaining power of the battery and the load current, and then send the estimated remaining power backup time to the management system. The management system determines the power backup strategy according to the estimated remaining power backup time and the power backup time obtained according to the first intention.

[0222] Optionally, in some embodiments, the power supply system can directly calculate its remaining power backup time. Then, the management system can directly obtain the remaining power backup time and determine the power backup strategy according to the first intention.

[0223] Further, in some embodiments, when the power supply system is powered by the battery, the state of the power supply system can also include the temperature, voltage of the power supply system, and type of the battery. For example, considering that the decay rate of the battery is different at different temperatures, the management system determines the first remaining power backup time through the remaining power and the load current, and can further determine the second remaining power backup time in combination with the temperature. For example, the management system determines that the remaining power backup time is 5 hours through the remaining power and the load current. When the temperature is 60°C, the management system finally determines that the remaining power backup time is 3.5 hours. When the temperature is 50°C, the management system finally determines that the remaining power backup time is 4 hours.

[0224] It should be understood that the above description only takes the remaining power and the load current as examples of the state of the power supply system, but the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto. For example, the state of the battery can also include the number of charge and discharge times, type, and the like of the battery.

[0225] Optionally, in some embodiments, the management system determines the first operation according to the first state of the power supply system, the first quality of service and the first intention when the power supply system meets the preset condition, including: the management system determines the first power backup strategy according to the first intention, the first state of the power supply system and the first QoS of the network element when the power supply system meets the preset condition.

[0226] Specifically, the management system detects the power supply system, and when it is detected that the preset condition is met, the management system can determine the first power backup strategy according to the first state of the battery of the power supply system, the first intention and the first QoS of the network element. The first power backup strategy can be in the form similar to Tables 1 to 4, that is, one power backup strategy corresponds to one operation, or in the form similar to Tables 5 to 7, that is, one power backup strategy corresponds to multiple operations, and then different operations are determined according to the state of different power supply systems and the QoS of the network element.

[0227] For example, the first power backup strategy has less impact on network performance, and the second power backup strategy has greater impact on network performance. When one power backup strategy corresponds to one operation, the management system estimates that the remaining power backup time of the battery is 3 hours according to the remaining power of the battery, and the power backup time determined according to the first intention is 2 hours, and the first QoS of the network element indicates that the network element corresponds to high network performance requirements, then the management system can determine the first power backup strategy. For another example, the management system estimates that the remaining power backup time of the battery is 3 hours according to the remaining power of the battery, and the power backup time is 4 hours, and the first QoS of the network element indicates that the network element has low network performance requirements, then the management system can determine the second power backup strategy.

[0228] In some optional embodiments, in step S405, the management system sends the first operation, including:

[0229] S4051, the management system sends the first strategy.

[0230] Specifically, after the management system determines the first strategy, the management system can send the first strategy to the network element.

[0231] S4052, the management system sends the first power backup strategy.

[0232] Specifically, after the management system determines the first power backup strategy, the management system can send the first power backup strategy to the network element.

[0233] Optionally, in some embodiments, the management system can send indication information to the network element, and the indication information is used to indicate the first power backup strategy.

[0234] Optionally, in some embodiments, after determining the first power backup policy, the management system can send a command to the network element to start the power backup feature, and then the management system can configure parameters in the power backup feature to implement the first power backup policy. For example, the parameter savepolicy in the power backup feature can be set to policy1, which can be considered as the management system sending the first power backup policy to the network element.

[0235] Optionally, in some other embodiments, the management system can first send a command to the network element to start the power backup feature, and then send the power backup policy when detecting that the power supply system meets the preset condition. For example, the management system can send a command to the network element to start the power backup feature after completing the configuration of the first policy. For another example, the management system can send a command to the network element to start the power backup feature when detecting the state of the power supply system.

[0236] In some optional embodiments, in step S406, the network element performs the first operation, including:

[0237] S4061, the network element performs an operation corresponding to the first power backup policy according to the first power backup policy.

[0238] Optionally, in some embodiments, the network element receives the indication information sent by the management system, and the indication information is used to indicate the first power backup policy. The network element performs an operation corresponding to the first power backup policy according to the first power backup policy and the first policy.

[0239] Optionally, in some embodiments, when the network element starts the power backup feature and determines that the management system sends the first power backup policy, the network element can perform an operation corresponding to the first power backup policy.

[0240] When one power backup policy corresponds to one operation, the network element can directly perform the corresponding operation according to the power backup policy. When one power backup policy corresponds to multiple operations, the network element can determine the specific operation to be performed according to the state of the power supply system. For example, the management system sends the first power backup policy to the network element, and the first power backup policy corresponds to no action, symbolic shutdown, and symbolic shutdown when the remaining power is 100%, 90%, and 70%, respectively. The network element determines that the remaining power is 80%, and then performs the symbolic shutdown operation.

[0241] Further, in some embodiments, when the management system detects that the power system changes from the first state to the second state, the management system can update the backup power strategy and send the updated backup power strategy, and after the network element receives the updated backup power strategy, the network element can perform the corresponding operation according to the updated strategy. Wherein, when one backup power strategy corresponds to one operation, the network element can directly perform the corresponding operation according to the updated backup power strategy, and when the updated backup power strategy corresponds to multiple operations, the network element can determine the specific operation to be performed according to the state of the power system. For example, the updated backup power strategy of the management system is the second backup power strategy, and the operation corresponding to the second backup power strategy when the remaining power is 100%, 90%, and 70% is symbol off, symbol off, and carrier off, respectively, and the network element determines that the remaining power is 60%, and then performs the operation of symbol off.

[0242] The manner in which the network element obtains the state of the power system in the embodiments of the present application is not limited, for example, the network element can send request information to the power system to request the state of the power system. For another example, the power system can periodically send the state of the power system to the network element.

[0243] Optionally, in some embodiments, the method 400, 500 further comprises: the management system sending intention feedback information.

[0244] Specifically, the management system can send the intention feedback information to the intention consumer to indicate that the first intention is completed.

[0245] In the embodiments of the present application, the management system can dynamically adjust the backup power strategy according to the state of the power system and the backup power duration, which can reduce the impact of the operation on the network performance.

[0246] Alternatively, when the management system detects the state of the power system, the management system can also detect the state of the power system through a data collection coordination function (DCCF).

[0247] It should be understood that the description of the management system detecting the state of the power system through the data collection coordination function is similar to the description of the management system detecting the state of the power system through the network element, and for the sake of brevity, it will not be repeated here.

[0248] Figure 6 A schematic flowchart of a backup power method 600 provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown, and the flowchart comprises:

[0249] S601, the intention consumer sends a first intention.

[0250] Specifically, the intention system can be deployed in the network element, and the intention consumer can send a first intention to the network element, and the first intention is used to indicate the backup power duration or the power saving preference or the backup power preference.

[0251] Optionally, the intent consumer can send the first intent to the network element directly.

[0252] Optionally, the intent consumer can send the first intent to the network element through a transparent mode.

[0253] Optionally, the management system can also deploy an intent system, after the intent consumer sends the first intent to the management system, the management system can translate the first intent and send a second intent to the network element, wherein the second intent is used to indicate the backup power duration or the power saving preference or the backup power preference.

[0254] S602, the network element receives the first intent.

[0255] Specifically, the network element can receive the first intent sent by the intent consumer directly or the first intent forwarded by the management system.

[0256] S603, the network element detects the power supply system.

[0257] It should be understood that the network element detects the power supply system and the management system detects the power supply system are similar, and for the sake of brevity, will not be repeated here.

[0258] S604, the network element detects that the power supply system meets the preset condition, and determines the first operation according to the first state of the power supply system and the first intent.

[0259] Specifically, the network element can detect the state of the power supply system, and when detecting that the power supply system meets the preset condition, the network element can determine the operation to be performed according to the first state of the detected power supply system and the first intent.

[0260] It should be understood that the network element determines the first operation according to the first state of the power supply system and the first intent is similar to the management system determines the first operation according to the first state of the power supply system and the first intent, and for the sake of brevity, will not be repeated here.

[0261] S605, the network element executes the first operation.

[0262] In the embodiments of the present application, the management system can dynamically adjust the operation according to the state of the battery of the power supply system and the backup power duration, thereby improving the flexibility of backup power and reducing the influence on the network performance.

[0263] In Figures 4-6 In the backup power method shown, the management system or the network element deploys an intent system, so that the management system or the network element can determine the power saving operation or the backup power and power saving strategy according to the intent message after receiving the intent message, but the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto, and the management system or the network element can also not deploy an intent system and implement the backup power method provided by the embodiments of the present application.

[0264] Figure 7A schematic flow chart of a power backup method 700 provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown, which is applied to a network system including a management system and network elements, the management system including a first management system and a second management system, as shown in Figure 7 The flow includes

[0265] S701. The first management system sends first indication information to the second management system.

[0266] Correspondingly, the second management system receives the first indication information sent by the first management system.

[0267] Exemplarily, the first management system can be an NMS or an OSS, and the second management system can be an EMS. In the following, the first system is taken as an NMS, and the second management system is taken as an EMS for illustration.

[0268] The NMS can send the first indication information to the EMS, which is used to indicate a power backup duration and / or power saving preference and / or power backup preference.

[0269] It should be understood that the description of the power backup duration, power backup preference and power saving preference can be referred to the above description, which is not repeated here for brevity.

[0273] In some embodiments, the first state of the power supply system includes a first remaining power amount of the power supply system.

[0274] In some embodiments, the first state of the power supply system further includes at least one of the following: a first load current, a first remaining power backup duration, a first temperature of the power supply system.

[0275] The second management system can determine the first operation according to the first indication information and the first state of the power supply system in the following possible ways.

[0276] One possible way: the second management system is preset with a corresponding relationship for indicating the power backup duration, the state of the power supply system and the operation, so that when the second management system receives the first indication information for indicating the power backup duration, the second management system can determine the first operation according to the first indication information and the first state of the power supply system.

[0277] A possible way: the second management system is preset with a corresponding relationship for indicating the power saving preference, the state of the power supply system and the operation, so that when the second management system receives the first indication information for indicating the power saving preference, the first operation can be determined according to the first indication information and the first state of the power supply system.

[0278] A possible way: the second management system is preset with a corresponding relationship for indicating the power saving preference, the state of the power supply system and the operation, so that when the second management system receives the first indication information for indicating the power saving preference, the first operation can be determined according to the first indication information and the first state of the power supply system.

[0279] For example, Table 8 shows a table of the power saving time, the state of the power supply system and the operation provided by the embodiment of the present application.

[0280] As shown in Table 8, when the power saving time indicated by the first indication information is between 1h-3h and the remaining power is between 90%-100%, it is determined that no operation is performed. When the power saving time indicated by the first indication information is between 1h-3h and the remaining power is between 70%-90%, it is determined that the operation is symbol off. When the power saving time indicated by the first indication information is between 1h-3h and the remaining power is below 70%, it is determined that the operation is carrier off. Similarly, when the power saving time indicated by the first indication information is 3h-5h or the power saving time indicated by the first indication information is 5h-7h, the second management system can determine the corresponding operation according to the remaining power.

[0281] Table 8: Corresponding relationship table of power saving time, state of power supply system and operation

[0282]

[0283] For example, Table 9 shows a table of the power saving preference, the state of the power supply system and the operation provided by the embodiment of the present application.

[0284] As shown in Table 9, when the power saving preference indicated by the first indication information is high level and the remaining power is between 90%-100%, it is determined that no operation is performed. When the power saving preference indicated by the first indication information is high level and the remaining power is between 70%-90%, it is determined that the operation is symbol off. When the power saving preference indicated by the first indication information is high level and the remaining power is below 70%, it is determined that the operation is carrier off. Similarly, when the power saving preference indicated by the first indication information is medium level or the power saving preference indicated by the first indication information is low level, the second management system can determine the corresponding operation according to the remaining power.

[0285] Table 9: Corresponding relationship table of power saving preference, state of power supply system and operation

[0286]

[0287]

[0288] For another example, Table 10 shows a table of power backup preference, state of power supply system and operation provided by an embodiment of the present application.

[0289] As shown in Table 10, when the power backup preference indicated by the first indication information is high level and the remaining power is 90%-100%, it is determined that no operation is performed. When the power backup preference indicated by the first indication information is high level and the remaining power is 70%-90%, it is determined that the operation is symbol off. When the power backup preference indicated by the first indication information is high level and the remaining power is below 70%, it is determined that the operation is carrier off. Similarly, when the power backup preference indicated by the first indication information is medium level or the power backup preference indicated is low level, the second management system can determine the corresponding operation according to the remaining power.

[0290] Table 10: Correspondence table of power backup preference, state of power supply system and operation

[0291]

[0292] One possible implementation: a model for determining operation is deployed in the second management system, the input of the model can be the power backup time or the power backup preference or the power saving preference, and the output can be the power saving operation. After the second management system receives the first indication information, the first indication information can be input into the model, so as to obtain the first operation.

[0293] S704, the second management system sends the first operation to the network element.

[0294] S705, the network element performs the first operation.

[0295] It should be understood that the description for S704 and S705 can be referred to the above, and for brevity, will not be repeated here.

[0296] Optionally, in some embodiments, S703, when the second management system detects that the power supply system satisfies the preset condition, the first operation is determined according to the first state of the power supply system and the first indication information, comprising: when the second management system detects that the power supply system satisfies the preset condition, the first operation is determined according to the first state of the power supply system, the first QoS and the first indication information.

[0297] For example, taking the state of the power supply system as the remaining power, when the management system detects that the power supply system is powered by the battery, the management system can determine the remaining power backup time according to the remaining power. If the power backup time indicated by the first indication information is short and the first QoS of the network element is high, the management system can determine an operation that has little effect on network performance.

[0298] For example, in the case of the state of the power supply system being the remaining power, when the management system detects that the power supply system is powered by the battery, the management system can determine the remaining power duration according to the remaining power, and if the first indication information indicates a long power duration and the first QoS requirement of the network element is low, the management system can determine an operation that has little effect on the power duration.

[0299] Optionally, in some embodiments, the method further includes: when the second management system detects that the first state of the power supply system changes to the second state, determining a second operation according to the first indication information and the second state of the power supply system.

[0300] In the embodiments of the present application, the second management system can determine an operation according to the state of the power supply system and the received indication information, and then instruct the network element to perform the operation, so that the network element can perform the corresponding operation. Since the second management system determines the operation that the network element needs to perform according to the state of the power supply system and the indication information, the operation can be adapted to the state of the power supply system, improving the flexibility of the network system power supply and reducing the impact on the network performance.

[0301] Optionally, in some embodiments, S703, when the second management system detects that the power supply system meets the preset condition, the second management system determines a first operation according to the first indication information and the first state of the power supply system, including:

[0302] The second management system determines a first strategy according to the first indication information;

[0303] The second management system detects that the power supply system meets the preset condition, and determines a first power supply strategy according to the first indication information and the first state of the power supply system.

[0304] The second management system detects the power supply system, and when it is detected that the preset condition is met, the second management system can determine a first power supply strategy according to the first state of the battery of the power supply system and the first indication information. The first power supply strategy can be in the form similar to Tables 1 to 4, that is, one power supply strategy corresponds to one operation, or in the form similar to Tables 5 to 6, that is, one power supply strategy corresponds to multiple operations, and then different operations are determined according to different power supply systems.

[0305] Optionally, in some other embodiments, when the second management system detects that the power supply system meets the preset condition, the second management system determines a first operation according to the first state of the power supply system, the first service quality and the first indication information, including: when the management system detects that the power supply system meets the preset condition, the management system determines a first power supply strategy according to the first indication information, the first state of the power supply system and the first QoS of the network element.

[0306] Specifically, the second management system detects the power system, and when detecting that a preset condition is met, the second management system can determine a first power backup strategy according to the first state of the battery of the power system, the first indication information, and the first QoS of the network element. The first power backup strategy can be in a form similar to Tables 1 to 4, that is, one power backup strategy corresponds to one operation, or in a form similar to Tables 5 to 7, that is, one power backup strategy corresponds to multiple operations, and then different operations are determined according to different states of the power system and the QoS of the network element.

[0307] For example, the first power backup strategy has a smaller impact on network performance, and the second power backup strategy has a larger impact on network performance. When one power backup strategy corresponds to one operation, the management system determines the first power backup strategy according to the remaining power backup time of the battery estimated according to the remaining power of the battery, which is 3 hours, the power backup time determined according to the first indication information, which is 2 hours, and the first QoS of the network element indicating that the network element has a high requirement on network performance. For another example, the management system determines the second power backup strategy according to the remaining power backup time of the battery, which is 3 hours, the power backup time, which is 4 hours, and the first QoS of the network element indicating that the network element has a low requirement on network performance.

[0308] In some optional embodiments, the second management system sends the first operation, including:

[0309] The second management system sends the first strategy;

[0310] The second management system sends the first power backup strategy.

[0311] Specifically, after the second management system determines the first strategy and the first power backup strategy, the second management system can send the first strategy and the first power backup strategy to the network element.

[0312] Optionally, in some embodiments, the second management system can send indication information to the network element, where the indication information is used to indicate the first power backup strategy.

[0313] Optionally, in some embodiments, after the second management system determines the first power backup strategy, the second management system can send a command to turn on the power backup feature to the network element, and then the second management system can configure parameters in the power backup feature to implement the first power backup strategy. For example, the power backup feature includes a parameter: savepolicy, and the value of the parameter can be set to policy1, that is, the management system is considered to send the first power backup strategy to the network element.

[0314] Optionally, in some embodiments, the second management system can send a command to the network element to enable the power backup feature, and then send the power backup policy when detecting that the power system meets the preset condition. For example, the second management system can send the command to the network element to enable the power backup feature after completing the configuration of the first policy. For another example, the second management system can send the command to the network element to enable the power backup feature when detecting the state of the power system.

[0315] In some optional embodiments, the network element performs the first operation at S705, including:

[0316] The network element performs the operation corresponding to the first power backup policy according to the first power backup policy.

[0317] Optionally, in some embodiments, the network element receives the indication information sent by the second management system, the indication information being used to indicate the first power backup policy, and the network element performs the operation corresponding to the first power backup policy according to the first power backup policy and the first policy.

[0318] Optionally, in some embodiments, when the network element enables the power backup feature and determines that the second management system sends the first power backup policy, the network element can perform the operation corresponding to the first power backup policy.

[0319] When one power backup policy corresponds to one operation, the network element can directly perform the operation according to the power backup policy. When one power backup policy corresponds to multiple operations, the network element can determine the specific operation to be performed according to the state of the power system. For example, the first power backup policy corresponds to no action, symbol off and symbol off when the remaining power is 100%, 90% and 70% respectively, and the network element determines that the remaining power is 80%, and then performs the operation of symbol off.

[0320] Further, in some embodiments, when the management system detects that the power system changes from the first state to the second state, the second management system can update the power backup policy and send the updated power backup policy, and the network element can perform the operation corresponding to the updated power backup policy after receiving the updated power backup policy. When one power backup policy corresponds to one operation, the network element can directly perform the operation according to the updated power backup policy. When the updated power backup policy corresponds to multiple operations, the network element can determine the specific operation to be performed according to the state of the power system. For example, the second power backup policy corresponds to symbol off, symbol off and carrier off when the remaining power is 100%, 90% and 70% respectively, and the network element determines that the remaining power is 60%, and then performs the operation of symbol off.

[0321] The manner in which the network element obtains the state of the power supply system in the embodiments of the present application is not limited, for example, the network element can send request information to the power supply system to request the state of the power supply system. For another example, the power supply system can periodically send the state of the power supply system to the network element.

[0322] In the embodiments of the present application, the second management system can dynamically adjust the power backup strategy according to the state of the power supply system and the power backup duration, which can reduce the influence of the operation on the network performance.

[0323] Figure 8 A schematic flowchart of a power backup method 800 provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown, the method is applied to a network system, the network system includes a management system and a network element, the management system includes a first management system and a second management system, as shown in Figure 8 The flowchart includes

[0324] S801, the first management system detects the power supply system.

[0325] Exemplarily, the first management system can be an NMS or an OSS, and the second management system can be an EMS. In the following, the first system is taken as an NMS, and the second management system is taken as an EMS for example.

[0326] It should be understood that the description for S801 can refer to the description for S403, and for the sake of brevity, it will not be repeated here.

[0327] S802, when the first management system detects that the power supply system meets a preset condition, the first operation is determined according to the first indication information and the first state of the power supply system.

[0328] When the first management system detects that the power supply system meets a preset condition, the first operation is determined according to the first indication information and the first state of the power supply system, and the first indication information is used to indicate the power backup duration or the power backup preference or the power saving preference. The first indication information can be configured by an operator.

[0329] In some embodiments, the first state of the power supply system includes a first remaining power amount of the power supply system.

[0330] In some embodiments, the first state of the power supply system further includes at least one of the following: a first load current, a first remaining power backup duration, a first temperature of the power supply system.

[0331] It should be understood that the description for S802 can refer to the description for S703, and for the sake of brevity, it will not be repeated here.

[0332] S803, the first management system sends the first operation to the network element.

[0333] The first management system can send the first operation to the network element in a transparent manner, that is, the first management system can first send the first operation to the second management system, and then the second management system sends the first operation to the network element.

[0334] S804, the network element executes the first operation.

[0335] It should be understood that the description for S804 can be referred to the above, which will not be repeated here for brevity.

[0336] Optionally, in some embodiments, S802, when the first management system detects that the power supply system meets the preset condition, the first operation is determined according to the first state of the power supply system and the first indication information, comprising: when the first management system detects that the power supply system meets the preset condition, the first operation is determined according to the first state of the power supply system, the first QoS and the first indication information.

[0337] For example, taking the state of the power supply system as the remaining power as an example, when the first management system detects that the power supply system is powered by the battery, the first management system can determine the remaining standby power duration according to the remaining power. If the standby power duration indicated by the first indication information is short, and the first QoS of the network element is high, the first management system can determine an operation that has little effect on the network performance.

[0338] For example, taking the state of the power supply system as the remaining power as an example, when the first management system detects that the power supply system is powered by the battery, the first management system can determine the remaining standby power duration according to the remaining power. If the standby power duration indicated by the first indication information is long, and the first QoS of the network element is low, the first management system can determine an operation that has little effect on the standby power duration.

[0339] Optionally, in some embodiments, the method further comprises: when the first management system detects that the first state of the power supply system changes to a second state, determining a second operation according to the first indication information and the second state of the power supply system.

[0340] In the embodiments of the present application, the first management system can determine the operation according to the state of the power supply system and the received indication information, and then instruct the network element to execute the operation, so that the network element can execute the corresponding operation. Since the first management system determines the operation that the network element needs to execute according to the state of the power supply system and the indication information, the operation can be consistent with the state of the power supply system, which improves the flexibility of the network system standby power and reduces the impact on the network performance.

[0341] Optionally, in some embodiments, the method further comprises:

[0342] The first management system sends the first indication information to the second management system;

[0343] The second management system determines the first policy according to the first indication information;

[0344] The second management system sends the first policy to the network element.

[0345] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first management system determines the first operation according to the first indication information and the first state of the power supply system when detecting that the power supply system satisfies the preset condition, including:

[0346] The first management system determines the first power backup policy according to the first indication information and the first state of the power supply system when detecting that the power supply system satisfies the preset condition.

[0347] The first management system detects the power supply system, and when detecting that the preset condition is satisfied, the first management system can determine the first power backup policy according to the first state of the battery of the power supply system and the first indication information. The first power backup policy can be in the form similar to Tables 1 to 4, that is, one power backup policy corresponds to one operation, or in the form similar to Tables 5 to 6, that is, one power backup policy corresponds to multiple operations, and then different operations are determined according to different power supply systems.

[0348] Optionally, in some other embodiments, the first management system determines the first operation according to the first state of the power supply system, the first service quality and the first indication information when detecting that the power supply system satisfies the preset condition, including: the first management system determines the first power backup policy according to the first indication information, the first state of the power supply system and the first QoS of the network element when detecting that the power supply system satisfies the preset condition.

[0349] Specifically, the first management system detects the power supply system, and when detecting that the preset condition is satisfied, the first management system can determine the first power backup policy according to the first state of the battery of the power supply system, the first indication information and the first QoS of the network element. The first power backup policy can be in the form similar to Tables 1 to 4, that is, one power backup policy corresponds to one operation, or in the form similar to Tables 5 to 7, that is, one power backup policy corresponds to multiple operations, and then different operations are determined according to the state of different power supply systems and the QoS of the network element.

[0350] For example, the first power backup policy has a smaller impact on network performance, and the second power backup policy has a larger impact on network performance. When one power backup policy corresponds to one operation, the management system estimates that the remaining power backup time of the battery is 3 hours according to the remaining power of the battery, and the power backup time is 2 hours according to the first indication information, and the first QoS of the network element indicates that the network performance requirement of the network element is high, and then the management system can determine the first power backup policy. For another example, the management system estimates that the remaining power backup of the battery is 3 hours according to the remaining power of the battery, and the power backup time is 4 hours, and the first QoS of the network element indicates that the network performance requirement of the network element is low, and then the management system can determine the second power backup policy.

[0353] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first management system can send indication information to the network element, the indication information being used to indicate the first power backup policy.

For example, the power backup feature includes a parameter: savepolicy, and the value of the parameter can be set as policy1, that is, it can be considered that the first management system sends the first power backup policy to the network element.

[0355] Optionally, in some other embodiments, the first management system can first send a command to turn on the power backup feature to the network element, and then send the power backup policy when detecting that the power supply system meets the preset condition. For example, the first management system can send the command to turn on the power backup feature to the network element after completing the configuration of the first policy. For another example, the first management system can send the command to turn on the power backup feature to the network element when detecting the state of the power supply system.

[0356] S804, the network element executes the first operation, including:

[0357] The network element determines the first operation according to the first policy and the first power backup policy and executes the first operation.

[0358] Optionally, in some embodiments, the second management system can send indication information to the network element, the indication information being used to indicate the first power backup policy.

[0359] Optionally, in some embodiments, after determining the first power backup policy, the second management system can send a command to turn on the power backup feature to the network element, and then the second management system can configure parameters in the power backup feature to implement the first power backup policy. For example, the power backup feature includes a parameter: savepolicy, and the value of the parameter can be set as policy1, that is, it can be considered that the first management system sends the first power backup policy to the network element.

[0360] Optionally, in some embodiments, the second management system can send a command to the network element to enable the backup power feature, and then send the backup power strategy when detecting that the power supply system meets the preset condition. For example, the second management system can send the command to the network element to enable the backup power feature after completing the configuration of the first strategy. For another example, the second management system can send the command to the network element to enable the backup power feature when detecting the state of the power supply system.
