Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of network communication technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, terminal and medium for deploying an integrated air-ground mobile core network. Background Technology
[0002] Air-to-ground integrated networks are commonly used in emergency communications, forming a new communication system that combines mobile communication base stations carried by airborne platforms (tethered balloons, airships, or drones) with ground base stations. Air-to-ground integrated networks have attracted widespread attention due to their advantages such as flexible deployment and ultra-long-range coverage. However, if user data requests are frequently transmitted from the airborne platform to the ground core network for processing, it will incur significant overhead. Furthermore, because the base stations mounted on the airborne platform are mobile, while ground base stations are relatively fixed, the lack of centralized management of airborne and ground base stations will lead to significant latency for user access and data processing. Although there has been considerable research on the design of air-to-ground integrated core networks and edge computing technologies, the research on core network design and task offloading in air-to-ground integrated networks is still insufficient. Currently, many researchers have introduced edge computing architectures to improve the task processing speed of air-to-ground integrated networks, which can improve network performance to some extent. However, without lightweight design and dynamic management of the multiple node core networks of the airborne platform, the flexibility and stability of the air-to-ground integrated network in dynamic mobile scenarios cannot be guaranteed, and the performance improvement of the edge computing architecture will be quite limited. To further explore the issues related to air-to-ground networks, this paper proposes an integrated air-to-ground network architecture and a mobile core network deployment method. This method introduces edge computing to propose a lightweight air-to-ground converged core network architecture. Based on this, a mobile core network deployment maneuver strategy based on minimum latency is proposed to avoid network performance instability caused by the switching of nodes during the movement of airborne platform nodes.

[0046] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an air-ground integrated mobile core network deployment device provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation
[0047] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0048] It should be noted that the terms "comprising" and "specific" in this invention, and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not explicitly listed or that are inherent to such process, method, product, or device.
[0049] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating an air-ground integrated mobile core network deployment method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The air-ground integrated mobile core network deployment method includes steps S11 to S13:
[0050] S11: Construct an integrated air-ground network architecture for mobile edge computing; wherein, the integrated air-ground network architecture includes: an airborne platform, edge servers, base stations, repeaters, a remote control center, and a backbone core network; the airborne platform includes tethered balloons, airships, or drones;
[0051] It should be noted that with the explosive growth of intelligent terminal devices, emerging services are demanding higher efficiency and lower latency from networks. The current air-to-ground integrated network, which uploads computationally intensive tasks to cloud data centers with abundant computing and caching resources, struggles to meet the millisecond-level end-to-end latency requirements of emerging applications. The air-to-ground integrated network architecture, which incorporates mobile edge computing, introduces MEC (Multi-access Edge Computing) to offload some core network functions to the base station side, thereby improving the speed of massive data processing. This enables base stations to have computing and resource caching capabilities, effectively reducing the number of interactions between base stations and the backbone network and saving bandwidth for service data transmission on the links.
[0052] While the proposed integrated air-ground network architecture improves network performance in 5G and IoT applications, providing users with certain computing and storage capabilities, the dynamic nature of the airborne platform's mesh network necessitates unified management of the airborne platform nodes to reduce frequent wireless access and prevent issues with user transmission terminals. The remote control center addresses this by implementing five aspects: airborne platform node selection, global topology management, global task scheduling, airborne platform node network control, and task offloading scheduling. This allows the center to support ground-based mesh network user services while simultaneously coordinating with the airborne platform's mobile core network to support air-to-ground services, thus achieving the convergence of the air-ground backbone core networks.
[0053] S12: Deploy a mobile core network based on the air-ground integrated network architecture, and establish an objective function for the mobile core network with the goal of minimizing service latency; wherein, the service latency includes the processing latency of the lightweight core network of the launch platform and the total latency of the backbone core network;
[0054] S13: The optimal solution of the objective function is obtained by using the particle swarm optimization algorithm, thus obtaining the deployment set of the mobile core network.
[0055] It should be noted that, considering the mobility of the lightweight core network of the launch platform and the network latency requirements of services, a mobile core network deployment method based on network latency optimization is proposed. This method establishes an objective function with the goal of minimizing service latency, approximates the objective function using the particle swarm optimization algorithm, and finally obtains the mobile core network deployment set.
[0056] Preferably, step S12 specifically includes:
[0057] S121: Based on the air-ground integrated network architecture, the launch platforms are connected to form an launch platform mesh network and the base stations are connected to form a ground mesh network. The edge servers corresponding to the launch platform mesh network are used as the lightweight core network of the launch platform to deploy the mobile core network.
[0058] It should be noted that due to the mobility of the launch platform nodes, the launch platform mesh network is a dynamic network. To achieve energy conservation and emission reduction, this launch platform mesh network typically needs to dynamically adjust the number of nodes and the collaborative relationships between nodes based on the number of service requests and user mobility. The edge server corresponding to the launch platform mesh network acts as a lightweight core network, interacting with the ground-based remote control center to manage and control the entire network. Simultaneously, the remote control center forwards data from the launch platform to the ground-based backbone core network for collaborative processing via the backbone core network, thereby achieving data-level integration between the launch platform mesh network and the ground-based mesh network.
[0059] The lightweight core network of the launch platform is a node with 5G core network functionality. Based on user service requirements, the complete 5G core network functions are customized to enable lightweight deployment of some 5G core network functions in emergency scenarios using the limited computing resources on the launch platform. This allows user terminals to quickly access, process, and backhaul data within the launch platform, effectively reducing processing latency for user services. In accordance with the mobility requirements of the launch platform, it retains network elements such as access management, mobility management, session management, authentication management, control policies, network slice selection, network opening functions, launch platform network control, and packet routing and forwarding management.
[0060] In addition to processing data from terrestrial base stations, the backbone core network can also receive data from the launch platform core network through a remote control center. This enables the terrestrial mesh network and the launch platform mesh network to converge at the data service level, ensuring the efficiency and flexibility of the converged network in data processing.
[0061] S122: Using NFV technology, abstract any user's service request into several NFVs, and obtain the processing latency of the NFVs in the lightweight core network of the launch platform;
[0062] It should be noted that in the mobile core network of the air-ground integrated network structure, NFV (Network Functions Virtualization) technology is used to decouple network functions from hardware and software. User service requests will be abstracted into multiple NFVs, and then mapped to the Mesh network edge server of the launch platform and the backbone core network server based on the abstracted NFVs, so as to realize the allocation of resources.
[0063] S123: Obtain the total latency of the NFV in the backbone core network;
[0064] S124: Establish the objective function of the mobile core network with the goal of minimizing service latency.
[0065] It should be noted that the deployment of mobile core network generally includes the process of selecting underlying service nodes and link mapping. The selection of underlying nodes requires the selection of appropriate scheduling strategies to improve network resource utilization. Based on the goal of minimizing latency, a mobile deployment method for core network that meets emergency service requests is proposed, which can avoid the network performance instability caused by the switching of nodes on the launch platform.
[0066] In a specific embodiment, it is assumed that the set of servers in the mobile core network of the integrated air-ground network structure is A, where A = {m} k|0≤k≤n}, where k represents the number of available servers in the mobile core network; this embodiment considers three types of resources: CPU computing resources, memory resources, and bandwidth resources, so the set of these three resources is B, B={m kj |0≤j≤m}, where j represents the number of resource types. This indicates the lightweight core network computing capabilities of the launch platform; This represents the computing power of the backbone core network. The service request of the i-th user is represented by a triplet. in Let be the number of NFVs for any given user's service request; i represents the execution of the i-th NFV for any given user's service request (1≤i≤p). This represents the maximum tolerable delay for the i-th NFV.
[0067] Preferably, step S122 specifically includes:
[0068] Using NFV technology, the service request of any user is abstracted into several NFVs. Based on a first processing latency expression, the processing latency of each NFV in the lightweight core network of the launch platform is obtained. The first processing latency expression is:
[0069] ,
[0070] in, The processing latency of the i-th NFV in the lightweight core network of the launch platform; The computational resource size required for the i-th NFV; This indicates the computing power of the lightweight core network of the launch platform.
[0071] Preferably, step S123 specifically includes:
[0072] The processing delay of the NFV in the backbone core network is obtained according to the second processing delay expression, whereby the second processing delay expression is:
[0073] ,
[0074] The transmission delay of the NFV in the backbone core network is obtained based on the transmission delay expression, which is:
[0075] ,
[0076] Based on the processing latency and transmission latency of the NFV in the backbone core network, the total latency of the NFV in the backbone core network is obtained, and the expression for the total latency is as follows:
[0077] ,
[0078] in, The processing latency of the i-th NFV in the backbone core network; This indicates the computing power of the backbone core network; The transmission delay of the i-th NFV in the backbone core network; This represents the memory size required for the i-th NFV; This indicates the transmission capacity of the backbone core network; The total latency of the i-th NFV in the backbone core network.
[0079] Specifically, step S124 is as follows:
[0080] With the goal of minimizing service latency, an objective function for the mobile core network is established, wherein the objective function is:
[0081] ,
[0082] in, The number of NFVs for any given user's service request; i represents the execution of the i-th NFV for any given user's service request.
[0083] Preferably, step S13 specifically includes:
[0084] The relevant constraints of the objective function are obtained through particle swarm optimization to find the optimal solution of the objective function and obtain the deployment set of the mobile core network; the relevant constraints are...
[0085] ,
[0086] in, This indicates that the processing latency of any one of the NFVs is less than the maximum tolerable latency; This means that the computational resources required for any one of the NFVs are less than those required for the deployment nodes of the mobile core network. Remaining computing resource size ; This indicates the processing location of any NFV, where v represents any node in the lightweight core network of the launch platform, and u represents any node in the backbone core network; when When =1, it means that any one of the NFVs is processed in cluster V of the lightweight core network of the launch platform; when When =0, it means that any one of the NFVs is processed in the cluster U of the backbone core network; This means that any one of the NFVs can only be processed on a certain core network node.
