Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of communication technology, and specifically relates to a communication processing, information transmission method, device and communication equipment. Background Art

[0002] There are two solutions for the interworking between the existing Evolved Packet System (EPS) and the 5G Core Network (5GC), including: supporting the N26 interface and not supporting the N26 interface. Without N26, the standard already supports dual registration and supports user equipment (UE) to establish sessions on 4G and 5G to transmit data. With N26, the standard only supports single registration, and it is impossible for UE to establish sessions on 4G and 5G.

[0003] The N26 interface is the interface between the 5G (NR) core network access and mobility management function (AMF) and the 4G (LTE) core network mobility management entity (MME) to achieve information exchange between 5GC and EPC. Whether the mobile network operator supports the N26 interface in the 4G network and the 5G network is optional.

[0004] Optionally, when a new network system with access network technology different from 5G and 4G is subsequently introduced, a corresponding communication interface may exist between the network function capable of realizing the mobility management function in the new network system and the AMF of 5G and the MME of 4G.

[0005] At present, when there are interfaces between network functions that can implement mobility management functions under different access network technologies, only single registration is supported, and it is impossible for terminals to establish sessions on networks belonging to different access network technologies. For terminals that support dual registration or even multiple registrations, one implementation method may be that when the terminal perceives that the signal quality or service quality of one network is poor, it can assist in data transmission by registering the second network. However, this implementation method will cause frequent registration processes and increase network registration delays. Summary of the invention

[0283] The following, in combination with the accompanying drawings, describes in detail the communication processing, information transmission method, apparatus and communication equipment provided by the embodiments of the present application through some embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0284] like Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a communication processing method, including:

[0285] Step 201, when the terminal is registered with at least two networks and the terminal is in a radio resource control RRC connected state in the first network and in an RRC idle state or an RRC inactive state in the second network, if a first condition is met, triggering an RRC connection establishment process or an RRC connection recovery process to a second access network device corresponding to the second network;

[0286] It should be noted that the terminal referred to in the embodiment of the present application may be a terminal that can register and access two networks, that is, the terminal supports dual registration (that is, the terminal is in dual registration mode), and such a terminal may also be referred to as a dual registration terminal; it may also be a terminal that can register and access more than two networks, that is, the terminal supports multi-registration (that is, the terminal is in multi-registration mode), and such a terminal may also be referred to as a multi-registration terminal.

[0287] Optionally, the multiple (two or more) networks accessed by the terminal belong to the same or different access network technologies respectively; for example, the access network technology may include but is not limited to at least one of the following: 4G, 5G, 6G.

[0288] For example, taking the terminal supporting dual registration as an example, one network registered by the terminal may be 5G, and another network registered by the terminal may be 4G. Specifically, the UE registers to the Evolved Packet Core (EPC) in the 4G system and the 5GC in the 5G system. When the UE is registered on both sides, the UE can establish an RRC connection with the LTE base station of the 4G system and the NR base station of the 5G system. Taking the terminal supporting multiple registrations as an example, the first network registered by the terminal may be 5G, the second network registered by the terminal may be 4G, and the third network registered by the terminal may be 6G. Optionally, the terminal usually uses a network with a high access network technology for data transmission, while the network with a low access network technology is in an RRC idle state or an RRC inactive state, that is, in this case, the access network technology version of the first network in the embodiment of the present application is higher than the access network technology version of the second network. For example, taking the terminal supporting dual registration as an example, the first network is a 5G network, and the second network is a 4G network. Optionally, the two registered by the terminal may also be the same access network technology, for example, one network registered by the terminal may be 5G, and the other network registered by the terminal may also be 5G.

[0289] It should also be mentioned that when the terminal supports multiple registrations, the second network can be one or more networks that have been multi-registered for access. For example, the terminal has registered and accessed the 5G network, 4G network and 6G network respectively. The terminal currently transmits the target service through the 6G network. When the first condition is met, the terminal can trigger the access network device under the 5G network to initiate RRC connection establishment, and can also trigger the access network device under the 4G network to initiate RRC connection establishment, or can simultaneously trigger the access network devices under the 5G network and the 4G network to initiate RRC connection establishment respectively.

[0290] Optionally, in one implementation, the first condition includes at least one of the following:

[0291] A11. The signal quality of the terminal in the cell in the first network is lower than or equal to a first measurement threshold;

[0292] Signal quality lower than or equal to the first measurement threshold can be understood as poor transmission quality. This situation can be understood as poor transmission quality of the terminal in the current network, and other networks need to be used to assist transmission in a timely manner.

[0293] A12. The service rate of the terminal in the cell of the first network is lower than or equal to the first service rate threshold;

[0294] A service rate lower than or equal to the first service rate threshold can be understood as a low transmission rate. This situation can be understood as the transmission rate of the terminal under the current network is low and other networks need to be used to assist in transmission in a timely manner.

[0295] A13. The service rate to be sent by the terminal in the first network is higher than or equal to the second service rate threshold;

[0296] The service rate to be sent being higher than or equal to the second service rate threshold can be understood as a higher transmission rate, that is, a larger amount of data to be transmitted. This situation can be understood as a larger amount of data to be transmitted by the terminal in the current network, and other networks need to be used to assist in transmission in a timely manner.

[0297] A14. The service characteristics of the pending service require multi-RRC transmission to be enabled;

[0298] In this case, it can be determined directly based on the service characteristics whether to enable multiple RRC transmissions, where the multiple RRC transmissions include two RRC transmissions (i.e., dual RRC transmissions) and / or more than two RRC transmissions. For example, if the service characteristics indicate that dual RRC transmissions need to be enabled, it is necessary to trigger the access network device of another network to initiate the RRC connection establishment process.

[0299] A15. The signal quality of the terminal in the cell in the second network is higher than or equal to the second measurement threshold;

[0300] The signal quality being higher than or equal to the second measurement threshold can be understood as the transmission quality of the second network being better. This situation can be understood as the transmission quality of the terminal under the first network being poor, and the second network needs to be used to assist in transmission in a timely manner, and the signal quality of the second network is better.

[0301] A16. The service rate of the terminal in the cell in the second network is higher than or equal to the third service rate threshold;

[0302] A service rate higher than or equal to the third service rate threshold can be understood as the second network service transmission rate is better. This situation can be understood as the terminal's transmission rate in the first network is low, and the second network needs to be used to assist in transmission in a timely manner, and the second network service rate is better.

[0303] It should be noted here that, when the second network is in the RRC idle state, if the first condition is met, the RRC connection establishment process is triggered to be initiated to the second access network device corresponding to the second network; when the second network is in the RRC inactive state, if the first condition is met, the RRC connection recovery process is triggered to be initiated to the second access network device corresponding to the second network.

[0304] Optionally, in one implementation, if the first condition is met, triggering the specific implementation of initiating an RRC connection establishment process to the second access network device corresponding to the second network includes:

[0305] When the first condition is met, the terminal sends an RRC connection establishment request message or an RRC connection recovery request message to a second access network device corresponding to the second network;

[0306] Among them, the RRC connection establishment request reason or RRC recovery reason carried in the RRC connection establishment request message or the RRC connection recovery request message includes: the link coverage of the first network is poor, and a request is made to establish an RRC connection under the second network; or, the terminal has business data to be transmitted and an RRC connection under the second network needs to be established.

[0307] Optionally, the RRC connection establishment request message carries an RRC connection establishment request cause; and the RRC connection recovery request message carries an RRC recovery cause (the RRC recovery cause may also be referred to as an RRC connection recovery cause).

[0308] In a specific implementation, the RRC layer of the terminal first determines whether the first condition is met, and when the RRC layer determines that the first condition is met, it triggers an indication to the NAS layer of the terminal, so that the NAS triggers a service request (Service Request). It should be noted that because the service request can only be executed when the terminal is in an RRC connected state, the terminal needs to be connected to the second access network device corresponding to the second network. Optionally, the implementation process specifically includes:

[0309] The RRC layer of the terminal sends an RRC connection establishment request message or an RRC connection recovery request message to the second access network device under the second network, and the RRC layer of the terminal receives the RRC connection establishment message or the RRC connection recovery request message sent by the second access network device; after the RRC of the terminal receives the RRC connection establishment message or the RRC connection recovery message, the RRC layer of the terminal will send an RRC connection establishment completion message or an RRC connection recovery completion message to the second access network device, and the terminal can connect to the second access network device, wherein the service request message of the NAS layer of the terminal can be included in the RRC connection establishment completion message or the RRC connection recovery completion message. After the second core network device receives the service request message, it can execute the service request process to realize the transmission of the target service of the terminal.

[0310] It should be noted that the RRC connection establishment process corresponds to the RRC connection establishment request message, the RRC connection establishment message and the RRC connection completion message; the RRC connection recovery process corresponds to the RRC connection recovery request message, the RRC connection recovery message and the RRC connection recovery completion message.

[0311] It should be noted that the above is aimed at how to use multiple RRC connections to transmit information when the terminal is in dual registration mode or multiple registration mode; the following describes in detail how the terminal enters dual registration mode or multiple registration mode.

[0312] Optionally, in one implementation, the method further includes:

[0313] The terminal receives first configuration information before registering to access at least two networks and when registering to access a third network;

[0314] It should be noted that the third network can be understood as a network accessed by the terminal in a single registration mode. Optionally, after the terminal is in a dual registration mode or a multi-registration mode, the third network is any one of the at least two networks that the terminal registers to access.

[0315] Optionally, the first configuration information includes at least one of the following:

[0316] B11. third indication information, where the third indication information is used to indicate that the terminal is allowed to register and access at least two networks;

[0317] B12, first measurement threshold;

[0318] B13, first service rate threshold;

[0319] B14, second service rate threshold;

[0320] B15, second measurement threshold;

[0321] B16: The third service rate threshold.

[0322] Optionally, as long as the terminal receives any one or more of the information in B11-B16 above, the terminal is allowed to register and access a new network, and can enter a dual registration mode or a multi-registration mode.

[0323] It should be noted that when the terminal registers and accesses a new network, it needs to trigger the RRC connection establishment process. Specifically, the establishment cause carried in the RRC connection establishment request message during the RRC connection establishment process can be dual registration or multiple registration, or the establishment cause carried can be a cause value related to dual registration or multiple registration.

[0324] Optionally, in an implementation manner, the receiving the first configuration information includes one of the following:

[0325] C11. The terminal receives first configuration information sent by the third core network device under the third network through a NAS message;

[0326] This situation can be understood as that the first configuration information is configured by the core network device, and after the core network device configures the first configuration information, it needs to send the first configuration information to the terminal through a NAS message.

[0327] It should be noted that, because it is the RRC layer of the terminal that ultimately uses the first configuration information, the NAS layer of the terminal needs to forward the first configuration information to the RRC layer of the terminal after receiving the first configuration information.

[0328] C12. The terminal receives first configuration information sent by a third access network device under the third network through an RRC message;

[0329] This situation can be understood as that the first configuration information is configured by the access network device. After configuring the first configuration information, the access network device needs to send the first configuration information to the terminal through an RRC message, and the RRC layer of the terminal finally receives the first configuration information.

[0330] Optionally, another implementation method may be that after the terminal initiates registration with the second network, the second core network device under the second network notifies the first core network device under the first network (the network to which the terminal is connected in single registration mode) that dual registration is completed, and the first core network device sends the first configuration information to the NAS layer of the terminal through a NAS message, and the NAS layer of the terminal forwards the first configuration information to the RRC layer of the terminal; or, the first core network instructs the first access network device under the first network that dual registration is completed, and the first access network device sends the first configuration information to the RRC layer of the UE through an RRC message.

[0331] It should be noted that, after the first access device or the first core network receives the completion of dual registration information indicated by the second core network, the first configuration information can be configured for the terminal.

[0332] Optionally, before receiving the first configuration information, the method further includes:

[0333] Send fourth indication information to a third core network device or a third access network device under the third network, where the fourth indication information is used to indicate that the terminal supports registration access to at least two networks.

[0334] It should be noted that after the third core network device or the third access network device receives the fourth indication information, it can configure the first configuration information for the terminal.

[0335] Optionally, when the terminal sends the fourth indication information to the third core network device, the first configuration information is sent by the third core network device to the terminal; optionally, when the terminal sends the fourth indication information to the third access network device, the first configuration information is sent by the third access network device to the terminal.

[0336] It should be noted that the terminal can determine when to initiate an RRC connection to the second network through the trigger conditions configured in the first configuration information, so that when there is no connection requirement, the second network can be suspended while maintaining the registration state, thereby preventing frequent triggering of the registration process and reducing the registration delay.

[0337] It should be noted that when the terminal is in dual registration mode or multi-registration mode, it is necessary to avoid switching between radio access technologies (inter-RAT). Optionally, in order to solve this problem in an embodiment of the present application, one of the following implementation methods may be adopted:

[0338] Implementation method 1:

[0339] The terminal receives second configuration information sent by an access network device in each of the at least two networks with which the terminal has an RRC connection, wherein the second configuration information does not include inter-RAT measurement configuration information;

[0340] It should be noted that by sending measurement configuration information that does not include inter-RAT to the terminal, the terminal will know that when performing cell measurement under the current network, cells with different RATs from the current serving cell will not be measured. Therefore, when reporting measurements to the access network device, the measurement results of cells with different RATs from the current serving cell will not be reported. As a result, the access network device will not select a cross-RAT cell when selecting a switching cell, thereby ensuring that inter-RAT switching will not be triggered.

[0341] Optionally, in this case, if the terminal completes registration under the second network, the second core network device needs to send a fifth indication message to the first core network device; after the first core network device receives the fifth indication message sent by the second core network device, it needs to send a sixth indication message to the first access network device, and the sixth indication message is used to indicate that the terminal has completed registration and access to at least two networks, and then the first access network device and the second access network device respectively send second configuration information to the terminal.

[0342] The fifth indication information includes at least one of the following:

[0343] D11, identification information of the terminal;

[0344] For example, the identification information may be a 5G Globally Unique Temporary UE Identity (5G-GUTI).

[0345] D12: an indication that the terminal has completed registration with the second network.

[0346] Implementation method 2:

[0347] After establishing an RRC connection with the second network, the terminal reports first indication information to a second access network device under the second network, where the first indication information is used to indicate that a switching capability between temporary wireless access technologies is not supported.

[0348] It should be noted that the not supporting the switching capability between temporary radio access technologies can be understood as the inability to configure the measurement configuration of cells between radio access technologies in the current case of multiple RRC connections.

[0349] It should also be noted here that after the terminal establishes an RRC connection with the first network, it also needs to report first indication information to the first access network device under the first network, and the first indication information is used to indicate that the switching capability between temporary wireless access technologies is not supported.

[0350] That is to say, in the case of multiple RRC connections, the terminal needs to send the first indication information to the access network device corresponding to each network, and the terminal cannot perform cross-RAT switching in each network.

[0351] After the access network device receives the first indication information sent by the terminal, the access network device determines that the cell switching of the terminal cannot cross RAT. Optionally, in one case, the terminal does not configure the cross-standard measurement parameters (i.e., measurement configuration information) when configuring the cell measurement parameters, so that the terminal can know that when performing cell measurement in the current network, it does not measure cells that do not belong to the same RAT or does not measure cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell. Therefore, when reporting the measurement to the access network device, the measurement results of the cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell are not reported, and then the access network device will not select the cross-RAT cell when selecting the switching cell, so as to ensure that the inter-RAT switching will not be triggered; optionally, in another case, when the access network device knows that the cell switching cannot be performed across the standard, it can configure the measurement parameters normally, that is, it can configure the measurement configuration information including inter-RAT to the terminal, and the terminal can perform measurement reporting according to the measurement parameters configured by the access network device, but when the access network device selects the switching cell, it will not select the cross-standard cell, so as to ensure that the terminal does not switch to the cross-standard cell.

[0352] Optionally, in this case, in one implementation, the method further includes:

[0353] When the second network becomes the only network registered by the terminal, or is the only network to establish an RRC connection among the at least two registered networks, the terminal sends a second indication information to a second access network device corresponding to the second network; the second indication information is used to indicate that the switching capability between radio access technologies is restored.

[0354] That is to say, when the terminal exits the multi-registration mode, it needs to send a second indication message to the currently connected access network device to inform the access network device that the inter-radio access technology switching capability is restored, that is, it can configure inter-RAT switching when performing cell switching.

[0355] Among them, the second network is not limited to the network that the terminal later initiates RRC connection establishment or connection recovery or later initiates registration. The second network can also be the network during the initial single registration, that is, the second network can be the network to which any terminal connects after restoring the single registration.

[0356] Implementation method three:

[0357] After establishing an RRC connection with the second network, the terminal reports first terminal capability update information to a second access network device under the second network, where the first terminal capability update is used to update the switching capability of the terminal between wireless access technologies.

[0358] It should be noted that it can be understood here that after the terminal establishes an RRC connection with the second network, the terminal needs to initiate a first terminal capability update process, and when initiating the first terminal capability update process, the terminal needs to send the first terminal capability update information to the second access network device.

[0359] It should be noted here that when the terminal capability stored in the second access network device side is the terminal's support for switching between wireless access technologies, after receiving the first terminal capability update information, the terminal capability needs to be updated to the terminal's non-support for switching between wireless access technologies.

[0360] It should also be noted here that after the terminal establishes an RRC connection with the first network, it also needs to initiate a first terminal capability update process to the first access network device under the first network, that is, the terminal sends the first terminal capability update information to the first access network device.

[0361] That is to say, in the case of multiple RRC connections, the terminal needs to send the first terminal capability update information to the access network device corresponding to each network, and the terminal cannot perform cross-RAT switching in each network.

[0362] After the access network device receives the first terminal capability update information sent by the terminal, the access network device determines that the cell switching of the terminal cannot cross RAT. Optionally, in one case, the terminal does not configure the cross-standard measurement parameters (i.e., measurement configuration information) when configuring the cell measurement parameters, so that the terminal knows that when performing cell measurement in the current network, it does not measure cells that do not belong to the same RAT or does not measure cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell. Therefore, when reporting the measurement to the access network device, the measurement results of the cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell are not reported, and then the access network device will not select the cross-RAT cell when selecting the switching cell, so as to ensure that the inter-RAT switching will not be triggered; optionally, in another case, when the access network device knows that the cell switching cannot be performed across the standard, it can configure the measurement parameters normally, that is, it can configure the measurement configuration information including inter-RAT to the terminal, and the terminal can perform measurement reporting according to the measurement parameters configured by the access network device, but when the base station selects the switching cell, it will not select the cross-standard cell, so as to ensure that the terminal does not switch to the cross-standard cell.

[0363] Optionally, in this case, in one implementation, the method further includes:

[0364] When the second network becomes the only registered network of the terminal, or is the only network to establish an RRC connection among the at least two registered networks, the terminal sends second terminal capability update information to the second access network device corresponding to the second network; the second terminal capability update information is used to update the terminal's switching capability between wireless access technologies.

[0365] It should be noted that, it can be understood here that, when the second network becomes the only registered network of the terminal, or is the only network among the at least two registered networks to establish an RRC connection, the terminal needs to initiate a second terminal capability update process, and when initiating the second terminal capability update process, the terminal needs to send the second terminal capability update information to the second access network device.

[0366] It should be noted here that when the terminal capability stored in the second access network device side is that the terminal does not support the switching capability between wireless access technologies, after receiving the second terminal capability update information, the terminal capability needs to be updated to the terminal supports the switching capability between wireless access technologies.

[0367] Among them, the second network is not limited to the network that the terminal later initiates RRC connection establishment or connection recovery or later initiates registration. The second network can also be the network during the initial single registration, that is, the second network can be the network to which any terminal connects after restoring the single registration.

[0368] That is to say, when the terminal exits the multi-registration mode, it needs to send the second terminal capability update information to the currently connected access network device to inform the access network device that the terminal can switch between wireless access technologies, that is, it can configure cross-RAT switching when performing cell switching.

[0369] Taking the terminal performing dual registration as an example, the specific application of the embodiment of the present application is illustrated as follows.

[0370] Application Scenario 1: Terminal activates dual RRC connection establishment

[0371] Step S11: The current terminal is in single registration mode to access the first network, and the terminal reports to the currently accessed network that it supports dual registration; for example, the first network accessed by the terminal is a 5GC and NR base station.

[0372] Optionally, the terminal may report fourth indication information to the core network or report fourth indication information to the base station, where the fourth indication information is used to indicate that the terminal supports registration and access to two networks.

[0373] Step S12: The terminal receives first configuration information, where the first configuration information includes at least one of the following:

[0374] first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate that the terminal is allowed to register and access two networks, that is, the terminal can perform dual registration;

[0375] The first measurement threshold;

[0376] A first service rate threshold;

[0377] The second service rate threshold.

[0378] The first configuration information may be sent by the core network of the first network through a NAS message; optionally, the first configuration information may also be configured by the base station of the first network through an RRC message.

[0379] Step S13: If the terminal receives the first configuration information through a NAS message, the NAS layer of the terminal forwards the first configuration information to the RRC layer of the terminal;

[0380] Step S14: The terminal performs second network registration (for example, accessing EPC and LTE base stations). During the registration process, when initiating RRC connection establishment, the establishment reason may be dual registration or other dual registration related reason values.

[0381] Step S15, the terminal is in dual registration mode (one network access is NR, and the other network access is LTE), the NR signal quality is always very good, and the service is transmitted in the NR network, and the other LTE network has no data transmission for a long time, and enters the RRC_IDLE state (or also called the CM_IDLE state on the core network side) or RRC_INACTIVE state (or also called the CM_CONNECTED state on the core network side). At this time, it can be considered that the terminal is still registered in the LTE core network;

[0382] Step S16: When the first condition is met, the RRC layer of the terminal indicates to the NAS, so that the NAS triggers a service request; specifically, the following steps are included:

[0383] Step S16a, the RRC layer of the terminal initiates an RRC connection establishment request message to the base station, wherein the RRC connection establishment request message carries the RRC connection establishment request reason of poor NR link coverage, requesting to establish a second RRC connection, or the terminal has service data to be transmitted and needs to establish an RRC connection under the LTE network, or the RRC connection establishment request may also be other reasons related to MO;

[0384] Step S16b, the RRC layer of the terminal receives the RRC connection establishment message sent by the base station;

[0385] Step S16c: The NAS layer of the terminal sends a service request message to the core network (MME) of the LTE network, where the service request message is included in the RRC connection establishment complete message;

[0386] Step S16d: Execute the subsequent service request process.

[0387] The first condition includes at least one of the following:

[0388] The signal quality in the cell in the NR network is lower than or equal to the first measurement threshold;

[0389] The service rate in the cell in the NR network is lower than or equal to the first service rate;

[0390] The service rate to be sent in the NR network is higher than or equal to the second service rate;

[0391] The service characteristics of the pending service require the activation of dual RRC transmission.

[0392] Application scenario 2: After the terminal activates dual RRC connections, network configuration is used to prevent inter-RAT switching

[0393] Steps S21 to S23 are the same as steps S11 to S13 in application case 1;

[0394] Step S24: The terminal completes registration of the second network, and there is an N26 interface between the two core networks (between AMF and MME);

[0395] Step S25: The terminal receives UECapabilityEnquiry signaling from two networks respectively;

[0396] Step S26: The terminal reports capabilities to the two networks respectively through UECapabilityInformation, including inter-RAT switching capability;

[0397] Step S27: The terminal receives second configuration information of the two networks respectively, wherein the second configuration information does not include inter-RAT measurement configuration information;

[0398] Furthermore, after the terminal completes the second network registration, the main implementation process on the network side includes:

[0399] Step S201: AMF receives fifth indication information, where the fifth indication information is sent by MME to AMF, and the indication information includes at least one of the following:

[0400] Identification information of the terminal, such as 5G-GUTI, etc.;

[0401] The terminal has completed the second network registration indication.

[0402] Step S202: The AMF indicates to the NR base station that the terminal has completed dual registration.

[0403] Step S203: The NR base station and the LTE base station respectively send second configuration information to the terminal, where the second configuration information does not include inter-RAT measurement configuration information.

[0404] Application scenario 3: After the terminal activates the dual RRC connection establishment, the inter-RAT switching steps S31 to S33 are prevented through the terminal indication information, which are the same as steps S11 to S13 of application scenario 1;

[0405] Step S34: The terminal enters the dual registration mode and the terminal is in the RRC connection state in both networks, and the terminal receives UECapabilityEnquiry signaling from the two networks respectively;

[0406] Step S35: The terminal reports capabilities to the two networks respectively through UECapabilityInformation, including inter-RAT switching capability;

[0407] Step S36: The terminal reports first indication information to the two networks respectively, wherein the first indication information is used to indicate that the base station temporarily does not support the inter-RAT switching process;

[0408] Step S37: After the terminal terminates the RRC connection in any one of the networks, the terminal sends a second indication message to the other network, wherein the second indication message is used to indicate that the inter-RAT switching capability is restored;

[0409] The first indication information and the second indication information may be reported through the UAI. Whether they may be reported through the UAI may also be network configured, that is, the network may enable reporting of the first indication information and the second indication information;

[0410] The main implementation process on the network side includes:

[0411] When the network side receives the first indication information, the inter-RAT switching process is not performed, that is, the inter-RAT switching command is not sent to the terminal;

[0412] After receiving the second indication information, the network side resumes the inter-RAT switching process, that is, it can send an inter-RAT switching command to the terminal.

[0413] Application scenario 4: After the terminal activates the dual RRC connection establishment, it prevents inter-RAT switching by not reporting the inter-RAT switching capability

[0414] Steps S41 to S43 are the same as steps S11 to S13 in application case 1;

[0415] Step S44: After the terminal enters the dual registration mode, the terminal triggers reporting capability updates to the two networks through UECapabilityInformation respectively. The updated terminal capabilities include: the terminal does not support inter-RAT switching capability;

[0416] Step S46: The terminal exits the dual registration mode and enters the single registration mode, for example, only maintaining registration and RRC connection in NR;

[0417] Step S47: The terminal triggers reporting capability update to the first network through UECapabilityInformation, wherein the updated terminal capabilities include: the terminal supports inter-RAT switching capability.

[0418] It should be noted that, for a terminal that supports multiple registrations, in an embodiment of the present application, when registering multiple networks at the same time, one or more of the networks can be suspended when there is no data transmission demand. When the terminal perceives that the transmission quality is poor, the transmission rate is low, the amount of data to be transmitted is large, and / or the service characteristics require the activation of multiple RRC transmissions in the currently used network, it will initiate an RRC connection establishment to another network, thereby reducing the communication delay caused by the registration process and improving the data transmission reliability.

[0419] like Figure 3 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a communication processing method, including:

[0420] Step 301, the second access network device performs a radio resource control RRC connection establishment process or an RRC connection recovery process;

[0421] The RRC connection establishment process or the RRC connection recovery process is triggered when the terminal is registered with at least two networks, the terminal is in an RRC connected state in the first network, and the terminal is in an RRC idle state or an RRC inactive state in the second network, and the first condition is met, and the second access network device belongs to the second network;

[0422] The at least two networks include the first network and the second network, and different networks belong to the same or different access network technologies;

[0423] The first condition includes at least one of the following:

[0424] The signal quality of the terminal in the cell of the first network is lower than or equal to a first measurement threshold;

[0425] The service rate of the terminal in the cell of the first network is lower than or equal to the first service rate threshold;

[0426] The rate of services to be sent by the terminal in the first network is higher than or equal to a second service rate threshold;

[0427] The service characteristics of the pending service require the activation of dual-multi RRC transmission;

[0428] The signal quality of the terminal in the cell in the second network is higher than or equal to a second measurement threshold;

[0429] The service rate of the terminal in the cell in the second network is higher than or equal to a third service rate threshold.

[0430] Optionally, the second access network device performs a radio resource control RRC connection establishment process or an RRC connection recovery process, including:

[0431] The second access network device receives an RRC connection establishment request message or an RRC connection recovery request message sent by the terminal;

[0432] Among them, the RRC connection establishment request reason or RRC recovery reason carried in the RRC connection establishment request message or the RRC connection recovery request message includes: the link coverage of the first network is poor, and a request is made to establish an RRC connection under the second network; or, the terminal has business data to be transmitted and an RRC connection under the second network needs to be established.

[0433] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0434] The second access network device receives first indication information or first terminal capability update information sent by the terminal;

[0435] The first indication information is used to indicate that the switching capability between temporary wireless access technologies is not supported; and the first terminal capability update is used to update the switching capability between wireless access technologies of the terminal.

[0436] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0437] The second access network device receives second indication information or second terminal capability update information sent by the terminal;

[0438] The second indication information is used to indicate the restoration of the switching capability between wireless access technologies; and the second terminal capability update information is used to update the terminal's switching capability between wireless access technologies.

[0439] It should be noted that all descriptions about the second access network device side in the above embodiments are applicable to the embodiments of the communication processing method applied to the second access network device side, and can achieve the same technical effects, and will not be repeated here.

[0440] like Figure 4 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides an information transmission method, including:

[0441] Step 401: A third core network device or a third access network device sends first configuration information to a terminal;

[0442] The third core network device or the third access network device belongs to a third network, and the third network is a network that the terminal registers to access before registering to access at least two networks;

[0443] Optionally, the third network may also be an access network that the terminal first registers when registering to access at least two networks;

[0444] The first configuration information includes at least one of the following:

[0445] third indication information, where the third indication information is used to indicate that the terminal is allowed to register and access at least two networks;

[0446] The first measurement threshold;

[0447] A first service rate threshold;

[0448] The second service rate threshold.

[0449] The second measurement threshold;

[0450] The third service rate.

[0451] Optionally, before the third core network device or the third access network device sends the first configuration information to the terminal, the method further includes:

[0452] The third core network device or the third access network device receives fourth indication information sent by the terminal, where the fourth indication information is used to indicate that the terminal supports registration and access to at least two networks.

[0453] Optionally, the third core network device receives the fifth indication information sent by the fourth core network device under the fourth network, indicating that the terminal has completed registration with the fourth network, and the third core network device optionally sends the fifth indication information to the third access network device.

[0454] The fourth network is a network on which the terminal initiates at least two registrations.

[0455] It should be noted that all descriptions about the third core network device or the third access network device side in the above embodiments are applicable to the embodiments of the information transmission method applied to the third core network device or the third access network device side, and can achieve the same technical effects, which will not be repeated here.

[0456] like Figure 5As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a communication processing method, including:

[0457] Step 501: After registering with at least two networks, the terminal sends first indication information or first terminal capability update information to an access network device corresponding to a target network among the at least two networks, where the target network is at least one network among the at least two networks to which an RRC connection is established;

[0458] The first indication information is used to indicate that the switching capability between temporary wireless access technologies is not supported; the first terminal capability update information is used to update the switching capability between wireless access technologies of the terminal;

[0459] Different networks belong to the same or different access network technologies.

[0460] It should be noted that the not supporting the switching capability between temporary radio access technologies can be understood as that in the case of the current multiple RRC connections, the switching between radio access technologies cannot be configured.

[0461] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application can avoid inter-RAT switching when the terminal is in a dual registration mode or a multi-registration mode.

[0462] Optionally, in order to solve this problem in the embodiments of the present application, one of the following implementations may be adopted:

[0463] Implementation method 1: Sending the first indication information

[0464] Normally, the terminal needs to send the first indication information to all networks with which the RRC connection is established, and the terminal cannot perform inter-RAT switching in each network.

[0465] After the access network device receives the first indication information sent by the terminal, the access network device determines that the cell switching of the terminal cannot cross RAT. Optionally, in one case, the terminal does not configure the cross-standard measurement parameters (i.e., measurement configuration information) when configuring the cell measurement parameters, so that the terminal knows that when performing cell measurement in the current network, it does not measure cells that do not belong to the same RAT or does not measure cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell. Therefore, when reporting the measurement to the access network device, the measurement results of the cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell are not reported, and then the access network device will not select the cross-RAT cell when selecting the switching cell, so as to ensure that the inter-RAT switching will not be triggered; optionally, in another case, when the access network device knows that the cell switching cannot be performed across the standard, it can configure the measurement parameters normally, that is, it can configure the measurement configuration information including inter-RAT to the terminal, and the terminal can perform measurement reporting according to the measurement parameters configured by the access network device, but when the base station selects the switching cell, it will not select the cross-standard cell, so as to ensure that the terminal does not switch to the cross-standard cell.

[0466] Optionally, in this case, in one implementation, the method further includes:

[0467] When the target network becomes the only network registered by the terminal, or is the only network to establish an RRC connection among the at least two registered networks, the terminal sends second indication information to the access network device, where the second indication information is used to indicate the recovery of the switching capability between wireless access technologies.

[0468] That is to say, when the terminal exits the multi-registration mode, it needs to send a second indication message to the currently connected access network device to inform the access network device that the inter-radio access technology switching capability is restored, that is, it can configure inter-RAT switching when performing cell switching.

[0469] Implementation method 1: Sending first terminal capability update information

[0470] Typically, the terminal needs to send first terminal capability update information to all networks with which the RRC connection is established, and the terminal cannot perform inter-RAT switching in each network.

[0471] It should be noted here that when the terminal capability stored on the access network device side is the terminal's ability to support switching between wireless access technologies, after receiving the first terminal capability update information, the terminal capability needs to be updated to the terminal's ability to not support switching between wireless access technologies.

[0472] After the access network device receives the first terminal capability update information sent by the terminal, the access network device determines that the cell switching of the terminal cannot cross RAT. Optionally, in one case, the terminal does not configure the cross-standard measurement parameters (i.e., measurement configuration information) when configuring the cell measurement parameters, so that the terminal knows that when performing cell measurement in the current network, it does not measure cells that do not belong to the same RAT or does not measure cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell. Therefore, when reporting the measurement to the access network device, the measurement results of the cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell are not reported, and then the access network will not select the cross-RAT cell when selecting the switching cell, so as to ensure that the inter-RAT switching will not be triggered; optionally, in another case, when the access network device knows that the cell switching cannot be performed across the standard, it can configure the measurement parameters normally, that is, it can configure the measurement configuration information including inter-RAT to the terminal, and the terminal can perform measurement reporting according to the measurement parameters configured by the access network device, but when the base station selects the switching cell, it will not select the cross-standard cell, so as to ensure that the terminal does not switch to the cross-standard cell.

[0473] Optionally, in this case, in one implementation, the method further includes:

[0474] When the target network becomes the only registered network of the terminal, or is the only network to establish an RRC connection among the at least two registered networks, the terminal sends second terminal capability update information to the access network device, and the second terminal capability update information is used to update the terminal's switching capability between wireless access technologies.

[0475] It should be noted here that when the terminal capability stored in the second access network device side is that the terminal does not support the switching capability between wireless access technologies, after receiving the second terminal capability update information, the terminal capability needs to be updated to the terminal supports the switching capability between wireless access technologies.

[0476] That is to say, when the terminal exits the multi-registration mode, it needs to send the second terminal capability update information to the currently connected access network device to inform the access network device that the terminal can switch between wireless access technologies, that is, it can configure cross-RAT switching when performing cell switching.

[0477] Implementation method 3: After registering with at least two networks, the terminal receives second configuration information sent by an access network device corresponding to a target network in the at least two networks, wherein the second configuration information does not include inter-RAT measurement configuration information

[0478] It should be noted that by sending measurement configuration information that does not include inter-RAT to the terminal, the terminal will know that when performing cell measurement in the current network, it will not measure cells that do not belong to the same RAT or will not measure cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell. Therefore, when reporting measurements to the access network device, the measurement results of cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell will not be reported. As a result, the access network device will not select a cross-RAT cell when selecting a switching cell, thereby ensuring that inter-RAT switching will not be triggered.

[0479] Optionally, in this case, the fifth core network device needs to send fifth indication information to the fourth core network device;

[0480] The fourth core network device belongs to the first network, the fifth core network device belongs to the second network, the first network and the second network are both networks registered and accessed by the terminal, and the terminal registers and accesses the first network earlier than the second network;

[0481] The fifth indication information includes at least one of the following:

[0482] identification information of the terminal;

[0483] An indication that the terminal has completed registration with the second network.

[0484] Furthermore, after receiving the fifth indication information sent by the fifth core network device, the fourth core network device sends a sixth indication information to the access network device, wherein the sixth indication information is used to instruct the terminal to complete registration and access at least two networks; and then the access network device sends the second configuration information to the terminal.

[0485] Taking the terminal performing dual registration as an example, the specific application of the embodiment of the present application is illustrated as follows.

[0486] Application scenario 1: After the terminal activates dual RRC connections, network configuration is used to prevent inter-RAT switching

[0487] Step S111: The current terminal is in single registration mode to access the first network, and the terminal reports to the currently accessed network that it supports dual registration; for example, the first network accessed by the terminal is a 5GC and NR base station.

[0488] Optionally, the terminal may report fourth indication information to the core network or report fourth indication information to the base station, where the fourth indication information is used to indicate that the terminal supports registration and access to two networks.

[0489] Step S112: The terminal receives first configuration information, where the first configuration information includes at least one of the following:

[0490] first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate that the terminal is allowed to register and access two networks, that is, the terminal can perform dual registration;

[0491] The first measurement threshold;

[0492] A first service rate threshold;

[0493] The second service rate threshold;

[0494] The second measurement threshold;

[0495] The third service rate.

[0496] The first configuration information may be sent by the core network of the first network through a NAS message; optionally, the first configuration information may also be configured by the base station of the first network through an RRC message.

[0497] Step S113: If the terminal receives the first configuration information through a NAS message, the NAS layer of the terminal forwards the first configuration information to the RRC layer of the terminal;

[0498] Step S114: The terminal completes registration of the second network, and there is an N26 interface between the two core networks (between the AMF and the MME);

[0499] Step S115: The terminal receives UECapabilityEnquiry signaling from two networks respectively;

[0500] Step S116: The terminal reports capabilities to the two networks respectively through UECapabilityInformation, including inter-RAT switching capability;

[0501] Step S117: The terminal receives second configuration information of the two networks respectively, wherein the second configuration information does not include inter-RAT measurement configuration information;

[0502] Furthermore, after the terminal completes the second network registration, the main implementation process on the network side includes:

[0503] Step S1101: The AMF receives fifth indication information, where the fifth indication information is sent by the MME to the AMF, and the indication information includes at least one of the following:

[0504] Identification information of the terminal, such as 5G-GUTI, etc.;

[0505] The terminal has completed the second network registration indication.

[0506] Step S1102: The AMF indicates to the NR base station that the terminal has completed dual registration;

[0507] Step S1103, the NR base station and the LTE base station respectively send second configuration information to the terminal, where the second configuration information does not include inter-RAT measurement configuration information.

[0508] Application scenario 2: After the terminal activates the dual RRC connection establishment, the inter-RAT switching steps S211 to S213 are prevented through the terminal indication information, which are the same as steps S111 to S113 of application scenario 1;

[0509] Step S214: The terminal enters the dual registration mode and the terminal is in the RRC connection state in both networks, and the terminal receives UECapabilityEnquiry signaling from the two networks respectively;

[0510] Step S215: The terminal reports capabilities to the two networks respectively through UECapabilityInformation, including inter-RAT switching capability;

[0511] Step S216: The terminal reports first indication information to the two networks respectively, wherein the first indication information is used to indicate that the base station temporarily does not support the inter-RAT switching process;

[0512] Step S217: After the terminal terminates the RRC connection in any one of the networks, the terminal sends second indication information to the other network, where the second indication information is used to indicate that the inter-RAT switching capability is restored;

[0513] The first indication information and the second indication information may be reported through the UAI. Whether they may be reported through the UAI may also be network configured, that is, the network may enable reporting of the first indication information and the second indication information;

[0514] The main implementation process on the network side includes:

[0515] When the network side receives the first indication information, the inter-RAT switching process is not performed, that is, the inter-RAT switching command is not sent to the terminal;

[0516] After receiving the second indication information, the network side resumes the inter-RAT switching process, that is, it can send an inter-RAT switching command to the terminal.

[0517] Application scenario 3: After the terminal activates the dual RRC connection establishment, it prevents inter-RAT switching by not reporting the inter-RAT switching capability

[0518] Steps S311 to S313 are the same as steps S111 to S113 in application scenario 1;

[0519] Step S314: After the terminal enters the dual registration mode, the terminal triggers reporting capability updates to the two networks through UECapabilityInformation respectively. The updated terminal capabilities include: the terminal does not support inter-RAT switching capability;

[0520] Step S316: The terminal exits the dual registration mode and enters the single registration mode, for example, only maintaining registration and RRC connection in NR;

[0521] Step S318: The terminal triggers reporting capability update to the first network through UECapabilityInformation, where the updated terminal capabilities include: the terminal supports inter-RAT switching capability.

[0522] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application can effectively prevent the terminal from performing cross-RAT switching in the multi-registration mode, ensure that the terminal uses the same RAT cell for service in the same network, and ensure data transmission reliability.

[0523] like Figure 6 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides an information transmission method, including:

[0524] Step 601: The access network device receives fifth indication information sent by the fourth core network device, where the fifth indication information is used to indicate that the terminal has completed registration and access to at least two networks, and the fourth core network device and the access network device belong to the same network; or

[0525] The access network device receives first indication information or first terminal capability update information sent by the terminal;

[0526] Among them, the first indication information or the first terminal capability update information is sent by the terminal to the access network device corresponding to the target network among the at least two networks after registering and accessing at least two networks, and the target network is at least one network among the at least two networks to establish an RRC connection, and the first indication information is used to indicate that the switching capability between temporary wireless access technologies is not supported; the first terminal capability update is used to update the switching capability between wireless access technologies of the terminal, and different networks belong to the same or different access network technologies.

[0527] Optionally, after the access network device receives the first indication information or the first terminal capability update information sent by the terminal, the method further includes:

[0528] The access network device receives the second indication information or the second terminal capability update information sent by the terminal;

[0529] The second indication information is used to indicate the restoration of the switching capability between wireless access technologies; and the second terminal capability update information is used to update the terminal's switching capability between wireless access technologies.

[0530] It should be noted that all descriptions about the access network device side in the above embodiments are applicable to the embodiments of the information transmission method applied to the access network device side, and can achieve the same technical effects, and will not be repeated here.

[0531] like Figure 7 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides an information transmission method, including:

[0532] Step 701: The fifth core network device sends fifth indication information to the fourth core network device;

[0533] The fourth core network device belongs to the first network, the fifth core network device belongs to the second network, the first network and the second network are both networks registered and accessed by the terminal, and the terminal registers and accesses the first network earlier than the second network;

[0534] The fifth indication information includes at least one of the following:

[0535] identification information of the terminal;

[0536] An indication that the terminal has completed registration with the second network.

[0537] It should be noted that all descriptions about the fifth core network device side in the above embodiments are applicable to the embodiments of the information transmission method applied to the fifth core network device side, and can achieve the same technical effects, and will not be repeated here.

[0538] like Figure 8 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides an information transmission method, including:

[0539] Step 801: The fourth core network device receives fifth indication information sent by the fifth core network device;

[0540] The fourth core network device sends sixth indication information to the access network device, where the sixth indication information is used to instruct the terminal to complete registration and access at least two networks;

[0541] The fourth core network device belongs to the first network, the fifth core network device belongs to the second network, the first network and the second network are both networks registered and accessed by the terminal, and the terminal registers and accesses the first network earlier than the second network;

[0542] The fifth indication information includes at least one of the following:

[0543] identification information of the terminal;

[0544] The terminal has completed the second network registration indication.

[0545] It should be noted that all descriptions about the fourth core network device side in the above embodiments are applicable to the embodiments of the information transmission method applied to the fourth core network device side, and can achieve the same technical effects, which will not be repeated here.

[0546] like Fig.19 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a communication processing method, including:

[0547] Step 1901: When a terminal is registered with a first network and the terminal is in a radio resource control RRC connection state under a first access network device under the first network and is in an RRC idle state or an RRC inactive state under a second access network device under the first network, if a first condition is met, triggering initiation of an RRC connection establishment process or an RRC connection recovery process to the second access network device;

[0548] It should be noted that the terminal mentioned in the embodiment of the present application may be a terminal capable of accessing two access network devices, or a terminal capable of accessing more than two access network devices. Optionally, the access network devices accessed by the terminal may belong to the same or different access network technologies.

[0549] It should be noted that the access network device accessed by the terminal may belong to the same core network device. For example, in this embodiment, the first access network device and the second access network device accessed by the terminal may belong to the same core network device, such as both may be 5GC or 6G core networks in a 5G system.

[0550] It should also be mentioned that when the terminal supports multiple access, multiple access network devices can be accessed under the first network, for example, terminal 6G access network devices, 4G access network devices and 5G access network devices. The current terminal transmits the target service through the 6G access network device. When the first condition is met, the terminal can trigger the 5G access network device to initiate RRC connection establishment, and can also trigger the 4G access network device to initiate RRC connection establishment, or can simultaneously trigger the 5G access network device and the 4G access network device to initiate RRC connection establishment respectively.

[0551] In some embodiments, the first condition includes at least one of the following:

[0552] E11. The signal quality of the terminal in the cell of the first access network device is lower than or equal to a first measurement threshold;

[0553] Signal quality lower than or equal to the first measurement threshold can be understood as poor transmission quality. This situation can be understood as the transmission quality of the terminal under the current access network equipment is poor, and other networks need to be used to assist transmission in a timely manner.

[0554] E12. The service rate of the terminal in the cell of the first access network device is lower than or equal to the first service rate threshold;

[0555] A service rate lower than or equal to the first service rate threshold can be understood as a low transmission rate. This situation can be understood as the transmission rate of the terminal under the current access network device is low, and other networks need to be used to assist in transmission in a timely manner.

[0556] E13. The service rate to be sent by the terminal in the first access network device is higher than or equal to the second service rate threshold;

[0557] The service rate to be sent being higher than or equal to the second service rate threshold can be understood as a higher transmission rate, that is, a larger amount of data to be transmitted. This situation can be understood as a larger amount of data to be transmitted by the terminal under the current access network device, and other networks need to be used to assist in transmission in a timely manner.

[0558] E14. The service characteristics of the pending service require the activation of multiple RRC transmissions;

[0559] In this case, it can be determined directly based on the service characteristics whether to enable multiple RRC transmissions, where the multiple RRC transmissions include two RRC transmissions (i.e., dual RRC transmissions) and / or more than two RRC transmissions. For example, if the service characteristics indicate that dual RRC transmissions need to be enabled, it is necessary to trigger the access network device of another network to initiate the RRC connection establishment process.

[0560] E15. The signal quality of the terminal in the cell of the second access network device is higher than or equal to the second measurement threshold;

[0561] The signal quality higher than or equal to the second measurement threshold can be understood as the transmission quality of the second access network device is better. This situation can be understood as the transmission quality of the terminal under the first access network device is poor, and the second access network device needs to be used in time to assist in transmission, and the signal quality of the second access network device is better.

[0562] E16. The service rate of the terminal in the cell of the second access network device is higher than or equal to the third service rate threshold;

[0563] The service rate higher than or equal to the third service rate threshold can be understood as the service transmission rate of the second access network device is relatively low. This situation can be understood as the transmission rate of the terminal under the first access network device is low, and the second access network device needs to be used in time to assist in transmission, and the service rate of the second access network device is better.

[0564] It should be noted here that, when the second access network device is in RRC idle state, if the first condition is met, the RRC connection establishment process is triggered to the second access network device; when the second access network device is in RRC inactive state, if the first condition is met, the RRC connection recovery process is triggered to the second access network device.

[0565] Optionally, in one implementation, if the first condition is met, the specific implementation of triggering initiation of an RRC connection establishment process to the second access network device includes:

[0566] When the first condition is met, the terminal sends an RRC connection establishment request message or an RRC connection recovery request message to the second access network device;

[0567] Among them, the RRC connection establishment request reason or RRC recovery reason carried in the RRC connection establishment request message or the RRC connection recovery request message includes: the link coverage of the first access network device is poor, and a request is made to establish an RRC connection under the second access network device; or, the terminal has business data to be transmitted and an RRC connection needs to be established under the second access network device.

[0568] Optionally, the RRC connection establishment request message carries an RRC connection establishment request cause; and the RRC connection recovery request message carries an RRC recovery cause (the RRC recovery cause may also be referred to as an RRC connection recovery cause).

[0569] In a specific implementation, the RRC layer of the terminal first determines whether the first condition is met, and when the RRC layer determines that the first condition is met, it triggers an indication to the NAS layer of the terminal, so that the NAS triggers a service request (Service Request). It should be noted that since the service request can only be executed when the terminal is in an RRC connected state, the terminal needs to be connected to the second access network device. Optionally, the implementation process specifically includes:

[0570] The RRC layer of the terminal sends an RRC connection establishment request message or an RRC connection recovery request message to the second access network device, and the RRC layer of the terminal receives the RRC connection establishment message or the RRC connection recovery request message sent by the second access network device; after the RRC of the terminal receives the RRC connection establishment message or the RRC connection recovery message, the RRC layer of the terminal will send an RRC connection establishment completion message or an RRC connection recovery completion message to the second access network device, and the terminal can access the second access network device, wherein the service request message of the NAS layer of the terminal can be included in the RRC connection establishment completion message or the RRC connection recovery completion message, and after the core network device corresponding to the second access network device receives the service request message, it can execute the service request process to realize the transmission of the target service of the terminal.

[0571] It should be noted that the above is aimed at how to use multiple RRC connections for information transmission when the terminal is registered in one core network. It can realize multiple RRC connections in a single registration, thereby expanding the link coverage and service transmission rate.

[0572] Optionally, in one implementation, the method further includes:

[0573] The terminal receives third configuration information before accessing at least two access network devices;

[0574] Optionally, the third configuration information includes at least one of the following:

[0575] seventh indication information, where the seventh indication information is used to indicate that the terminal is allowed to register and access at least two networks;

[0576] The first measurement threshold;

[0577] A first service rate threshold;

[0578] The second service rate threshold;

[0579] The second measurement threshold;

[0580] The third service rate threshold.

[0581] Optionally, as long as the terminal receives any one or more of the above information, the terminal is allowed to access a new access network device.

[0582] Optionally, in an implementation manner, the receiving the third configuration information includes one of the following:

[0583] E21. The terminal receives third configuration information sent by a sixth core network device corresponding to the sixth network through a NAS message;

[0584] This situation can be understood as that the third configuration information is configured by the core network device. After the core network device configures the third configuration information, it needs to send the third configuration information to the terminal through a NAS message.

[0585] It should be noted that, because it is the RRC layer of the terminal that ultimately uses the third configuration information, the NAS layer of the terminal needs to forward the third configuration information to the RRC layer of the terminal after receiving the third configuration information.

[0586] It should be noted that the sixth network and the first network may be the same or different, that is, the third configuration information received by the terminal may come from the core network device of the registered first network or from the core network device of other networks.

[0587] E22. The terminal receives third configuration information sent by a sixth access network device corresponding to the sixth network through an RRC message;

[0588] This situation can be understood as that the third configuration information is configured by the access network device. After configuring the third configuration information, the access network device needs to send the third configuration information to the terminal through an RRC message, and the RRC layer of the terminal finally receives the third configuration information.

[0589] It should be noted that the sixth access network device may be at least one access network device accessed by the terminal, such as the first access network device or the second access network device.

[0590] Optionally, before receiving the third configuration information, the method further includes:

[0591] Send eighth indication information to the sixth core network device or the sixth access network device, where the eighth indication information is used to indicate that the terminal supports access to at least two core network devices.

[0592] It should be noted that after the sixth core network device or the sixth access network device receives the eighth indication information, it can configure the first configuration information for the terminal.

[0593] Optionally, when the terminal sends the eighth indication information to the sixth core network device, the third configuration information is sent by the sixth core network device to the terminal; optionally, when the terminal sends the eighth indication information to the sixth access network device, the third configuration information is sent by the sixth access network device to the terminal.

[0594] It should be noted that the terminal can determine when to initiate an RRC connection to the second access network device according to the trigger condition configured in the third configuration information.

[0595] It should be noted that when the terminal simultaneously accesses at least one access network device, it is necessary to avoid switching between radio access technologies (inter-RAT). Optionally, in order to solve this problem in the embodiment of the present application, one of the following implementation methods may be adopted:

[0596] Implementation method 1:

[0597] The terminal receives second configuration information sent by each access network device in a network with which the terminal has an RRC connection among at least two access network devices, respectively, where the second configuration information does not include inter-RAT measurement configuration information;

[0598] It should be noted that by sending measurement configuration information that does not include inter-RAT to the terminal, the terminal will know that when performing cell measurement under the current access network device, the cell with a different RAT from the current serving cell will not be measured. Therefore, when reporting the measurement to the access network device, the measurement results of the cell with a different RAT from the current serving cell will not be reported. As a result, the access network device will not select a cross-RAT cell when selecting a switching cell, thereby ensuring that the inter-RAT switching will not be triggered.

[0599] Optionally, in this case, if the terminal completes access under the second access network device, the core network device needs to send a ninth indication message to the first access network device, and the ninth indication message is used to indicate that the terminal has completed access to at least two access network devices, after which the first access network device and the second access network device respectively send second configuration information to the terminal.

[0600] Implementation method 2:

[0601] After establishing an RRC connection with the second access network device, the terminal reports first indication information to the second access network device, where the first indication information is used to indicate that a switching capability between temporary wireless access technologies is not supported.

[0602] It should be noted that the not supporting the switching capability between temporary radio access technologies can be understood as the inability to configure the measurement configuration of cells between radio access technologies in the current case of multiple RRC connections.

[0603] It should also be noted here that after the terminal establishes an RRC connection with the first access network device, it is also necessary to report first indication information to the first access network device, where the first indication information is used to indicate that the switching capability between temporary wireless access technologies is not supported.

[0604] That is to say, in the case of multiple RRC connections, the terminal needs to send the first indication information to the access network device corresponding to each network, and the terminal cannot perform cross-RAT switching in each network.

[0605] After the access network device receives the first indication information sent by the terminal, the access network device determines that the cell switching of the terminal cannot cross RAT. Optionally, in one case, the terminal does not configure the cross-standard measurement parameters (i.e., measurement configuration information) when configuring the cell measurement parameters, so that the terminal can know that when performing cell measurement in the current network, it does not measure cells that do not belong to the same RAT or does not measure cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell. Therefore, when reporting the measurement to the access network device, the measurement results of the cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell are not reported, and then the access network device will not select the cross-RAT cell when selecting the switching cell, so as to ensure that the inter-RAT switching will not be triggered; optionally, in another case, when the access network device knows that the cell switching cannot be performed across the standard, it can configure the measurement parameters normally, that is, it can configure the measurement configuration information including inter-RAT to the terminal, and the terminal can perform measurement reporting according to the measurement parameters configured by the access network device, but when the access network device selects the switching cell, it will not select the cross-standard cell, so as to ensure that the terminal does not switch to the cross-standard cell.

[0606] Optionally, in this case, in one implementation, the method further includes:

[0607] When the second access network device becomes the only network accessed by the terminal, or is the only network to establish an RRC connection among the at least two core network devices accessed, the terminal sends second indication information to the second access network device; the second indication information is used to indicate that the switching capability between radio access technologies is restored.

[0608] That is to say, when the terminal exits the multi-access mode, it needs to send a second indication message to the currently connected access network device to inform the access network device that the switching capability between wireless access technologies has been restored, that is, it can configure cross-RAT switching when performing cell switching.

[0609] Among them, the second access network device is not limited to the access network device that initiates RRC connection establishment or connection recovery or initiates connection after the terminal. The second access network device can also be the access network device during the initial single access, that is, the second access network device can be the access network device to which any terminal connects after restoring single access.

[0610] Implementation method three:

[0611] After establishing an RRC connection with the second access network device, the terminal reports first terminal capability update information to the second access network device, where the first terminal capability update is used to update the switching capability of the terminal between wireless access technologies.

[0612] It should be noted that it can be understood here that after the terminal establishes an RRC connection with the second access network device, the terminal needs to initiate a first terminal capability update process, and when initiating the first terminal capability update process, the terminal needs to send the first terminal capability update information to the second access network device.

[0613] It should be noted here that when the terminal capability stored in the second access network device side is the terminal's support for switching between wireless access technologies, after receiving the first terminal capability update information, the terminal capability needs to be updated to the terminal's non-support for switching between wireless access technologies.

[0614] It should also be noted here that after the terminal establishes an RRC connection with the first access network device, it also needs to initiate a first terminal capability update process to the first access network device, that is, the terminal sends the first terminal capability update information to the first access network device.

[0615] That is to say, in the case of multiple RRC connections, the terminal needs to send the first terminal capability update information to each access network device, and the terminal cannot perform cross-RAT switching in each network.

[0616] After the access network device receives the first terminal capability update information sent by the terminal, the access network device determines that the cell switching of the terminal cannot cross RAT. Optionally, in one case, the terminal does not configure the cross-standard measurement parameters (i.e., measurement configuration information) when configuring the cell measurement parameters, so that the terminal knows that when performing cell measurement in the current network, it does not measure cells that do not belong to the same RAT or does not measure cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell. Therefore, when reporting the measurement to the access network device, the measurement results of the cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell are not reported, and then the access network device will not select the cross-RAT cell when selecting the switching cell, so as to ensure that the inter-RAT switching will not be triggered; optionally, in another case, when the access network device knows that the cell switching cannot be performed across the standard, it can configure the measurement parameters normally, that is, it can configure the measurement configuration information including inter-RAT to the terminal, and the terminal can perform measurement reporting according to the measurement parameters configured by the access network device, but when the base station selects the switching cell, it will not select the cross-standard cell, so as to ensure that the terminal does not switch to the cross-standard cell.

[0617] Optionally, in this case, in one implementation, the method further includes:

[0618] When the second access network device becomes the only access network device accessed by the terminal, or is the only access network device that establishes an RRC connection among the at least two access network devices accessed, the terminal sends second terminal capability update information to the second access network device; the second terminal capability update information is used to update the terminal's switching capability between wireless access technologies.

[0619] It should be noted that, it can be understood here that, when the second network becomes the only network accessed by the terminal, or is the only network to establish an RRC connection among the at least two access network devices accessed, the terminal needs to initiate a second terminal capability update process, and when initiating the second terminal capability update process, the terminal needs to send the second terminal capability update information to the second access network device.

[0620] It should be noted here that when the terminal capability stored in the second access network device side is that the terminal does not support the switching capability between wireless access technologies, after receiving the second terminal capability update information, the terminal capability needs to be updated to the terminal supports the switching capability between wireless access technologies.

[0621] Among them, the second access network device is not limited to the access network device that initiates RRC connection establishment or connection recovery or initiates access after the terminal. The second access network device can also be the access network device during the initial single access, that is, the second access network device can be the access network device to which any terminal connects after restoring single access.

[0622] That is to say, when the terminal exits the multi-access mode, it needs to send the second terminal capability update information to the currently connected access network device to inform the access network device that the terminal can switch between wireless access technologies, that is, it can configure cross-RAT switching when performing cell switching.

[0623] See also Fig. 20 , a communication processing method according to an embodiment of the present application includes:

[0624] Step 2001: The second access network device executes a radio resource control RRC connection establishment process or an RRC connection recovery process;

[0625] The RRC connection establishment process or the RRC connection recovery process is triggered when the terminal accesses at least two access network devices, and the terminal is in an RRC connected state under the first access network device, and the terminal is in an RRC idle state or an RRC inactive state under the second access network device, and the first condition is met;

[0626] The first condition includes at least one of the following:

[0627] The signal quality of the terminal in the cell of the first access network device is lower than or equal to the first measurement threshold;

[0628] The service rate of the terminal in the cell of the first access network device is lower than or equal to the first service rate threshold;

[0629] The service rate to be sent by the terminal in the first access network device is higher than or equal to the second service rate threshold;

[0630] The service characteristics of the pending service require the activation of dual-multi RRC transmission;

[0631] The signal quality of the terminal in the cell of the second access network device is higher than or equal to the second measurement threshold;

[0632] The service rate of the terminal in the cell of the second access network device is higher than or equal to a third service rate threshold.

[0633] Optionally, the second access network device performs a radio resource control RRC connection establishment process or an RRC connection recovery process, including:

[0634] The second access network device receives an RRC connection establishment request message or an RRC connection recovery request message sent by the terminal;

[0635] Among them, the RRC connection establishment request reason or RRC recovery reason carried in the RRC connection establishment request message or the RRC connection recovery request message includes: the link coverage of the first access network device is poor, and a request is made to establish an RRC connection under the second access network device; or, the terminal has business data to be transmitted and an RRC connection needs to be established under the second access network device.

[0636] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0637] The second access network device receives first indication information or first terminal capability update information sent by the terminal;

[0638] The first indication information is used to indicate that the switching capability between temporary wireless access technologies is not supported; and the first terminal capability update is used to update the switching capability between wireless access technologies of the terminal.

[0644] Step 2101: The sixth core network device or the sixth access network device sends third configuration information to the terminal;

[0656] It should be noted that all descriptions about the sixth core network device or the sixth access network device side in the above embodiments are applicable to the embodiments of the information transmission method applied to the sixth core network device or the sixth access network device side, and can achieve the same technical effects, so they will not be repeated here.

[0657] See also Fig. 22 , the embodiment of the present application provides an information transmission method, including:

[0658] Step 2201: After accessing at least two access network devices, the terminal sends first indication information or first terminal capability update information to a target access network device among the at least two access network devices, where the target access network device is at least one network among the at least two access network devices to which an RRC connection is established;

[0659] The first indication information is used to indicate that the switching capability between temporary wireless access technologies is not supported; the first terminal capability update is used to update the switching capability between wireless access technologies of the terminal;

[0660] Different access network devices belong to the same or different access network technologies.

[0661] It should be noted that the not supporting the switching capability between temporary radio access technologies can be understood as that in the case of the current multiple RRC connections, the switching between radio access technologies cannot be configured.

[0662] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application can avoid switching between radio access technologies (inter-RAT) in a multi-access mode when the terminal is in a single registration mode.

[0663] Optionally, in order to solve this problem in the embodiments of the present application, one of the following implementations may be adopted:

[0664] Implementation method 1: Sending the first indication information

[0665] Normally, the terminal needs to send the first indication information to all access network devices that establish the RRC connection, and the terminal cannot perform cross-RAT switching in each access network device.

[0666] After the access network device receives the first indication information sent by the terminal, the access network device determines that the cell switching of the terminal cannot cross RAT. Optionally, in one case, the terminal does not configure the cross-standard measurement parameters (i.e., measurement configuration information) when configuring the cell measurement parameters, so that the terminal knows that when performing cell measurement in the current network, it does not measure cells that do not belong to the same RAT or does not measure cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell. Therefore, when reporting the measurement to the access network device, the measurement results of the cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell are not reported, and then the access network device will not select the cross-RAT cell when selecting the switching cell, so as to ensure that the inter-RAT switching will not be triggered; optionally, in another case, when the access network device knows that the cell switching cannot be performed across the standard, it can configure the measurement parameters normally, that is, it can configure the measurement configuration information including inter-RAT to the terminal, and the terminal can perform measurement reporting according to the measurement parameters configured by the access network device, but when the base station selects the switching cell, it will not select the cross-standard cell, so as to ensure that the terminal does not switch to the cross-standard cell.

[0667] Optionally, in this case, in one implementation, the method further includes:

[0668] When the target access network device becomes the only access network device accessed by the terminal, or is the only access network device to establish an RRC connection among the at least two access network devices accessed, the terminal sends second indication information to the access network device, and the second indication information is used to indicate the recovery of the switching capability between wireless access technologies.

[0669] That is to say, when the terminal is in multi-access mode, it is necessary to send a second indication message to the currently connected access network device to inform the access network device that the switching capability between wireless access technologies has been restored, that is, it can configure cross-RAT switching when performing cell switching.

[0670] Implementation method 1: Sending first terminal capability update information

[0671] Normally, the terminal needs to send the first terminal capability update information to all access network devices that establish the RRC connection, and the terminal cannot perform cross-RAT switching under each access network device.

[0672] It should be noted here that when the terminal capability stored on the access network device side is the terminal's ability to support switching between wireless access technologies, after receiving the first terminal capability update information, the terminal capability needs to be updated to the terminal's ability to not support switching between wireless access technologies.

[0673] After the access network device receives the first terminal capability update information sent by the terminal, the access network device determines that the cell switching of the terminal cannot cross RAT. Optionally, in one case, the terminal does not configure the cross-standard measurement parameters (i.e., measurement configuration information) when configuring the cell measurement parameters, so that the terminal knows that when performing cell measurement in the current network, it does not measure cells that do not belong to the same RAT or does not measure cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell. Therefore, when reporting the measurement to the access network device, the measurement results of the cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell are not reported, and then the access network will not select the cross-RAT cell when selecting the switching cell, so as to ensure that the inter-RAT switching will not be triggered; optionally, in another case, when the access network device knows that the cell switching cannot be performed across the standard, it can configure the measurement parameters normally, that is, it can configure the measurement configuration information including inter-RAT to the terminal, and the terminal can perform measurement reporting according to the measurement parameters configured by the access network device, but when the base station selects the switching cell, it will not select the cross-standard cell, so as to ensure that the terminal does not switch to the cross-standard cell.

[0674] Optionally, in this case, in one implementation, the method further includes:

[0675] When the target access network device becomes the only access network device accessed by the terminal, or is the only access network device that establishes an RRC connection among the at least two access network devices accessed, the terminal sends second terminal capability update information to the access network device, and the second terminal capability update information is used to update the terminal's switching capability between wireless access technologies.

[0676] It should be noted here that when the terminal capability stored in the second access network device side is that the terminal does not support the switching capability between wireless access technologies, after receiving the second terminal capability update information, the terminal capability needs to be updated to the terminal supports the switching capability between wireless access technologies.

[0677] That is to say, when the terminal exits the multi-access mode, it needs to send the second terminal capability update information to the currently connected access network device to inform the access network device that the terminal can switch between wireless access technologies, that is, it can configure cross-RAT switching when performing cell switching.

[0678] Implementation method 3: After the terminal accesses at least two access network devices, it receives the second configuration information sent by the target access network device in the at least two access network devices, and the second configuration information does not include the inter-RAT measurement configuration information

[0679] It should be noted that by sending measurement configuration information that does not include inter-RAT to the terminal, the terminal will know that when performing cell measurement in the current network, it will not measure cells that do not belong to the same RAT or will not measure cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell. Therefore, when reporting measurements to the access network device, the measurement results of cells with a different RAT from the current serving cell will not be reported. As a result, the access network device will not select a cross-RAT cell when selecting a switching cell, thereby ensuring that inter-RAT switching will not be triggered.

[0680] See also Fig.23 , an embodiment of the present application provides an information transmission method, including:

[0681] Step 2301: the access network device receives ninth indication information sent by the seventh core network device, where the ninth indication information is used to indicate that the terminal has completed access to at least two access network devices, and the seventh core network device and the access network device belong to the same network; or the access network device receives first indication information or first terminal capability update information sent by the terminal;

[0682] Among them, the first indication information or the first terminal capability update information is sent by the terminal to a target access network device among the at least two access network devices after accessing the at least two access network devices, and the target access network device is at least one access network device among the at least two access network devices that establishes an RRC connection, and the first indication information is used to indicate that the switching capability between temporary wireless access technologies is not supported; the first terminal capability update is used to update the switching capability between wireless access technologies of the terminal, and different access network devices belong to the same or different access network technologies.

[0683] Optionally, after the access network device receives the first indication information or the first terminal capability update information sent by the terminal, the method further includes:

[0684] The access network device receives the second indication information or the second terminal capability update information sent by the terminal;
