Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of communications, and more particularly, to a data collection method, a data collection device, and a server. Background Art

[0002] With the improvement of terminal capabilities, it has become possible to perform model inference on the terminal side. One way of model training and deployment is that the server of the terminal / chip manufacturer is responsible for collecting data and training the model, and deploying the model on the terminal side for model inference.

[0003] Specifically, the terminal / chip manufacturer can use an over-the-top (OTT) server deployed by a non-network operator for data collection and model training, which can ensure the adaptability of the model and the terminal and improve the product performance of the model. Among them, OTT means that the content or service is built on top of the basic telecommunication network without the need for additional support from the network operator, and the content or service is provided by a third party outside the operator.

[0004] Normally, the OTT server and a specific terminal can interact based on data, and then model training is performed based on the terminal data obtained from the interaction. However, in the solution of training the model only using the terminal data obtained from the interaction between the OTT server and the specific terminal, since the data type is too thin, it may have a negative impact on the product performance of the model. For example, there may be problems such as overfitting, underfitting, or inability to generalize. Summary of the Invention

[0080] Server 13 may be a server of a terminal / chip manufacturer, such as an over-the-top (OTT) server deployed by a non-network operator. Server 13 may also be replaced by a third-party platform, etc.

[0081] To facilitate a better understanding of the embodiments of this application, the related technologies of this application are described.

[0082] (1) Minimization of Drive Tests (MDT).

[0083] To ensure network quality, operators need to adopt drive tests (DT) technology to test network quality.

[0084] The traditional DT method requires operators to send specialized personnel with dedicated instruments to the actual network to test the signal quality at various locations to check for network coverage issues. However, this method not only consumes a large amount of manpower and material resources, but also, in general, it is not very convenient for staff to access all locations to test the network signal quality. Therefore, the actual effect of this method may not be very good.

[0085] To solve this problem, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) proposed MDT. The characteristics of MDT are: directly using the user equipment (UE) in the network to measure and report the network coverage. The advantage of this technical solution is that it can directly utilize the UE to test the network coverage, avoiding a large amount of manpower and material resource expenses for operators. At the same time, it can cover any location within the network, and the coverage range is more effective than the traditional DT method.

[0086] MDT has advantages such as low overhead and short optimization cycle, which can greatly reduce the costs of mobile communication operators for network optimization and maintenance and improve the efficiency of network optimization. At the same time, MDT can collect network information in places that the traditional DT method cannot reach (such as indoors, narrow roads, etc.). Therefore, MDT can provide more powerful support for evaluating network performance and improving network quality, thus bringing higher satisfaction to users.

[0087] From the perspective of the MDT measurement method, MDT can be divided into Immediate MDT and Logged MDT.

[0088] The characteristic of Immediate MDT is that the UE measures in the Radio Resource Control (RRC) connected state, and the measurement method is to multiplex the existing Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurements in the protocol. If the configured reporting conditions are met, the UE will report the MDT measurement results to the base station. When the UE switches to other cells or enters the RRC idle state, the MDT measurement configuration will be deleted.

[0089] The characteristic of the logged MDT is that the base station configures the logged MDT for the UE when the UE is in the RRC connected state. The UE can only perform measurements and record the measurement results in the RRC idle state / inactive state. The UE can report the results to the base station only after it returns to the RRC connected state. The logged MDT will continue until the configured duration of the measurement is reached after it is configured.

[0090] From the perspective of the MDT collection object, MDT can be divided into management-based MDT and signaling-based MDT.

[0091] The management-based MDT collects the MDT data of UEs within a specific area (such as a tracking area, a cell). The requests and configurations of the MDT are directly sent from the Operation and Maintenance (OAM) network element to the base station.

[0092] The signaling-based MDT collects the MDT data of a specific UE, which can be specified by the user identifier / device identifier.

[0093] It should be noted that the MDT data is a network data collection solution, and the network data is used within the operator's network without considering how to open it to external OTT servers.

[0094] (2) Collection of terminal data.

[0095] The baseline solution for the OTT server to collect terminal data is based on implementation, that is, the OTT server directly interacts with the terminal to obtain terminal data, such as transmitting it as a data packet through the user plane or Wireless-Fidelity (WiFi). Since the terminal / user is not very willing to send terminal data to the operator considering the data asset attributes, the terminal data exchanged between the OTT server and the terminal is not visible to the operator.

[0096] It should be noted that with the improvement of terminal capabilities, it has become possible to perform model inference on the terminal side. One way of model training and deployment is that the servers of terminal / chip manufacturers are responsible for collecting data and training models, and deploying the models on the terminal side for model inference. Specifically, terminal / chip manufacturers can use over-the-top (OTT) servers deployed by non-network operators for data collection and model training, which can ensure the adaptability of the model to the terminal and improve the product performance of the model. Among them, OTT means that the content or service is built on top of the basic telecommunication network without the need for additional support from the network operator, and the content or service is provided by a third party outside the operator. Usually, the data to be collected for model training includes terminal data and network data of a specific terminal. The OTT server and the specific terminal can interact based on data, but this solution does not consider how to obtain network data. Therefore, how to collect and associate these two types of data is an urgent problem to be solved in this field.

[0097] In view of this, the embodiments of the present application provide a data collection method, a data collection device, and a server, which can enrich the types of training data of the model, and thus can improve the product performance of the model.

[0098] The following will combine the accompanying drawings and explain in detail the data collection method provided by the embodiments of the present application through some embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0099] Figure 2 It is a schematic flowchart of a data collection method 210 provided by an embodiment of the present application.

[0102] Exemplarily, the first data collection request is used to request data collection.

[0104] Among them, the first data collection response includes the collection data of the first terminal, and the collection data includes the terminal data collected by the first terminal and the network data associated with the terminal data, and the network data is the data collected by the first radio access network node serving the first terminal.

[0105] Exemplarily, the collection data is data for training a model.

[0106] In some embodiments, the first data collection request includes at least one of the following: a session identifier for identifying the first data collection request, the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the server, information for identifying a regional scope, configuration information; the configuration information includes at least one of the following: information for configuring a parameter type, information for configuring a feedback type.

[0107] In some embodiments, the data type includes at least one of the following: the type of the terminal data, the type of the network data.

[0108] In some embodiments, the type of the terminal data includes at least one of the following: a standard data type, a non-standard data type. Of course, the type of the network data may also include at least one of the following: a standard data type, a non-standard data type.

[0109] Exemplarily, the information for identifying a regional scope may be information for identifying the scope of a specific region (such as a tracking area, a cell).

[0110] Exemplarily, the configuration information includes information for configuring at least one of a parameter type (such as Reference Signal Receiving Power (RSRP)) and a feedback type (such as periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an identifier (ID) to support the collection of non-standardized data by a terminal or a radio access network node. In particular, the parameter type may include the data type of the network data to be collected, such as the network configuration parameters to be collected.

[0111] In this embodiment, the server sends a first data collection request; the server receives a first data collection response corresponding to the first data collection request; wherein, the first data collection response includes the collection data of a first terminal, the collection data includes the terminal data collected by the first terminal and the network data associated with the terminal data, and the network data is the data collected by a first radio access network node serving the first terminal. The collection data obtained by using the data collection method provided by the embodiments of the present application helps to enrich the type of training data of the model, and thus can improve the product performance of the model.

[0112] In some embodiments, S211 may include:

[0113] The server sends the first data collection request to a first network device, and the first data collection request includes a first classification identifier, and the terminal type identified by the first classification identifier is the terminal type of the first terminal;

[0114] Wherein, S212 may include:

[0115] The server receives the first data collection response from the first network device or the first radio access network node.

[0116] Exemplarily, the first network device is an OAM network element or a device with the function of an OAM network element.

[0117] Exemplarily, the first data collection request includes at least one of the following:

[0118] The first classification identifier, which is used to screen terminals of a specific terminal type. When the classification identifier of the first terminal is the first classification identifier, the first classification identifier can be sent to the first terminal by the server based on implementation. Optionally, the server can also dynamically update the first classification identifier based on the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier. The remaining activation duration can also be referred to as the effective duration.

[0119] The session identifier, which is used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0120] The IP address, that is, the IP address of the server.

[0121] The information for identifying the area range, such as the information for identifying the range of a specific area (such as a tracking area, a cell).

[0122] The configuration information includes the information for configuring at least one of the parameter type (such as RSRP) and the feedback type (such as periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support the terminal or the radio access network node to collect non-standardized data. In particular, the parameter type can include the data type of the network data to be collected, such as the network configuration parameters to be collected.

[0123] For the first network device, after receiving the first data collection request, the first network device can determine the first radio access network node based on the information in the first data collection request. For example, the first network device can select the radio access network node within the area range as the first radio access network node based on the information for identifying the area range in the first data collection request. After determining the first radio access network node, the first network device can determine the second data collection request based on the first data collection request and send the second data collection request to the first radio access network node.

[0124] For example, the information included in the second data collection request is the same as the information included in the first data collection request.

[0125] For example, the second data collection request includes at least one of the following:

[0126] The first classification identifier is used to screen terminals of a specific terminal type. When the classification identifier of the first terminal is the first classification identifier, the first classification identifier can be sent to the first terminal by the server based on implementation. Optionally, the server can also dynamically update the first classification identifier based on the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier.

[0127] The session identifier is used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0128] The IP address, i.e., the IP address of the server.

[0129] Information for identifying a regional scope, such as information for identifying the scope of a specific region (e.g., a tracking area, a cell).

[0130] The configuration information includes information for configuring at least one of a parameter type (e.g., RSRP) and a feedback type (e.g., periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, thereby supporting the collection of non-standardized data by the terminal or the radio access network node. In particular, the parameter type can include the data type of the network data to be collected, such as the network configuration parameters to be collected.

[0131] For the first radio access network node, after receiving the second data collection request, the first radio access network node can select the first terminal based on the information in the second data collection request. For example, the first radio access network node determines, based on the first classification identifier in the second data collection request, a terminal whose terminal type is the terminal type identified by the first classification identifier as the first terminal. For another example, the first radio access network node determines, based on the first classification identifier and the information for identifying the regional scope in the second data collection request, a terminal that is located within the regional scope and whose terminal type is the terminal type identified by the first classification identifier as the first terminal. After determining the first terminal, the first radio access network node can determine a third data collection request based on the received second data collection request and send the third data collection request to the first terminal.

[0132] For example, the third data collection request includes the information in the second data collection request other than the first classification identifier. For another example, the third data collection request includes the information in the second data collection request other than the first classification identifier and the information for configuring the data type of the network data to be collected (e.g., the network configuration parameters to be collected) in the configuration information.

[0133] For example, the third data collection request includes at least one of the following:

[0134] The session identifier is used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0135] The IP address, i.e., the IP address of the server.

[0136] Information for identifying a regional scope, such as information for identifying the scope of a specific area (such as a tracking area, a cell).

[0137] Configuration information, including information for configuring at least one of a parameter type (such as RSRP) and a feedback type (such as periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support a terminal or a radio access network node to collect non-standardized data.

[0138] For a first terminal, after receiving a third data collection request, the first terminal can collect data of the first terminal to obtain the terminal data of the first terminal; and then send a third data collection response to a first radio access network node.

[0139] Among them, the third data collection response includes at least one of the following:

[0140] Terminal data, that is, the data collected by the first terminal. For example, it includes a parameter type (such as RSRP) and corresponding values; in particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support a terminal or a radio access network node to collect non-standardized data.

[0141] Session identifier, used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0142] It should be noted that the session identifier can be sent to the first terminal by the server based on implementation, so that when the first terminal receives the third data collection request, it can determine whether the third data collection request comes from a data collection request sent by a server it trusts based on the session identifier sent by the server and the session identifier carried in the third data collection request.

[0143] Based on this, after the first radio access network node receives the third data collection response, it associates the terminal data in the third data collection response with the network data collected by the first radio access network node to obtain the collected data. Among them, after the first radio access network node receives the second data collection request, it can perform data collection based on the information in the configuration information for configuring the data type of the network data to be collected (such as the network configuration parameters to be collected) to obtain the network data. After the first radio access network node obtains the collected data, it can send a second data collection response to the first network device. For example, the first radio access network node sends a second data collection response to the first network device based on the IP address of the server. After the first network device receives the second data collection response, it can determine the first data collection response based on the second data collection response and send the first data collection response to the server. For example, after the first network device receives the second data collection response sent by the first radio access network node, it uses it as the first data collection response and sends the first data collection response to the server based on the IP address of the server.

[0144] In this embodiment, by introducing the first classification identifier, it is possible to associate the network data collected by the first radio access network node with the terminal data collected by the terminals of the same terminal type (i.e., the first terminals whose terminal type is the terminal type identified by the first classification identifier), which helps to enrich the types of training data of the model and improve the product performance of the model.

[0145] In some embodiments, before S211, the method 210 may further include:

[0146] The server sends the first classification identifier to the first terminal.

[0147] Exemplarily, the server sends the terminal type information of the first terminal to the first terminal, and the terminal type information includes the first classification identifier.

[0148] In some embodiments, the server sending the first classification identifier to the first terminal may be implemented as:

[0149] The server sends the first classification identifier and the activation duration of the first classification identifier to the first terminal.

[0150] Exemplarily, the server sends the terminal type information of the first terminal to the first terminal, and the terminal type information includes the first classification identifier. The terminal type information may further include the activation duration of the first classification identifier.

[0151] Exemplarily, the first classification identifier may be an identifier that is dynamically sent by the server to the first terminal for indicating the terminal type of the first terminal. Optionally, the server may also dynamically update the first classification identifier based on the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier.

[0152] For the first radio access network node, before selecting the first terminal, the first radio access network node may obtain the first classification identifier reported by the first terminal.

[0153] For example, the first terminal may report the first classification identifier through at least one of the following methods:

[0154] Method 1:

[0155] The first terminal may report the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node through the capability reporting process of the first terminal. For example, the first terminal may report the first classification identifier of the first terminal device to the first radio access network node through the capability reporting process during the initial access procedure.

[0156] It should be noted that this indication method may cause the first classification identifier to be not flexible enough and there is a risk of exposing the capabilities of the first terminal to the first radio access network node.

[0157] Method 2:

[0158] The first terminal does not report the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node through the capability reporting process.

[0159] For example, the first terminal indicates to the first radio access network node that the first terminal supports collecting terminal data according to the classification identifier.

[0160] The first radio access network node sends a first request (also referred to as a type information reporting permission) to the first terminal, for requesting the first terminal to report the first classification identifier of the first terminal. Optionally, the first request may further include a duration threshold; when the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier exceeds the duration threshold, the first device reports the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node, otherwise, it does not report the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node, so as to avoid the situation that the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier is too short and causes the first radio access network node to receive the first classification identifier and then quickly become invalid.

[0161] Specifically, the first radio access network node may send the first request to the first terminal device through a user equipment information request (UEInformationRequest) or other configuration in a radio resource control (RRC) reconfiguration (RRCReconfiguration with OtherConfig).

[0162] After the first terminal receives the first request sent by the first radio access network node, it feeds back the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node. Optionally, the first terminal may also feed back the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node, so that the first radio access network node associates the first classification identifier with the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier.

[0163] Specifically, the first device may feed back the first classification identifier and the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node through User Equipment Information Response (UEInformationResponse) or User Equipment Assistance Information (UEAssistanceInformation).

[0164] In some embodiments, S211 may include:

[0165] The server sends the first data collection request to the first network device. The first data collection request includes a first identifier and a second identifier. The first identifier is used to identify the first terminal, and the second identifier is used to identify the serving cell of the first terminal.

[0166] Wherein, S212 may include:

[0167] The server receives the first data collection response from the first network device or the first radio access network node.

[0168] Exemplarily, the server sends a first data collection request to the first network device.

[0169] Wherein, the first data collection request includes at least one of the following:

[0170] The first identifier.

[0171] The second identifier.

[0172] A session identifier, which is used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0173] An IP address, that is, the IP address of the server.

[0174] Information for identifying a regional scope, such as information for identifying the scope of a specific area (such as a tracking area, a cell).

[0175] Configuration information, including information for configuring at least one of parameter types (such as RSRP) and feedback types (such as periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support the collection of non-standardized data by the terminal or the radio access network node. In particular, the parameter type can include the data type of the network data to be collected, such as the network configuration parameters to be collected.

[0176] For the first network device, after receiving the first data collection request, the first network device may send a second data collection request to the first radio access network node based on the first data collection request.

[0177] For example, the second data collection request includes the information in the first data collection request except the second identifier.

[0178] For example, the second data collection request includes at least one of the following:

[0179] The first identifier.

[0180] Session identifier, used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0181] IP address, that is, the IP address of the server.

[0182] Information for identifying the area range, such as information for identifying the range of a specific area (such as a tracking area, a cell).

[0183] Configuration information, including information for configuring at least one of parameter types (such as RSRP) and feedback types (such as periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support the collection of non-standardized data by the terminal or the radio access network node. In particular, the parameter type can include the data type of the network data to be collected, such as the network configuration parameters to be collected.

[0184] For the first radio access network node, after receiving the second data collection request, the first radio access network node may send a third data collection request to the first terminal based on the second data collection request.

[0185] For example, the third data collection request includes the information in the second data collection request except the first identifier. Again, for example, the third data collection request includes the information in the second data collection request except the first identifier and the information in the configuration information for configuring the data type of the network data to be collected (such as the network configuration parameters to be collected).

[0186] For example, the third data collection request includes at least one of the following:

[0187] A session identifier, used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0188] The IP address, i.e., the IP address of the server.

[0189] Information for identifying a regional scope, such as information for identifying the scope of a specific area (e.g., a tracking area, a cell).

[0190] Configuration information, including information for configuring at least one of a parameter type (e.g., RSRP) and a feedback type (e.g., periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support a terminal or a radio access network node in collecting non-standardized data.

[0191] For the first terminal, after receiving the third data request, the first terminal can collect data of the first terminal to obtain the terminal data of the first terminal; and then send a third data collection response to the first radio access network node.

[0192] Among them, the third data collection response includes at least one of the following:

[0193] Terminal data, i.e., the data collected by the first terminal. For example, it includes a parameter type (e.g., RSRP) and a corresponding value; in particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support a terminal or a radio access network node in collecting non-standardized data.

[0194] A session identifier, used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0195] It should be noted that the session identifier can be sent by the server to the first terminal based on implementation, so that when the first terminal receives the third data collection request, it can determine whether the third data collection request comes from a data collection request sent by a server it trusts based on the session identifier sent by the server and the session identifier carried in the third data collection request.

[0196] Based on this, after the first radio access network node receives the third data collection response, it associates the terminal data in the third data collection response with the network data collected by the first radio access network node to obtain the collected data. Among them, after the first radio access network node receives the second data collection request, it can perform data collection based on the information in the configuration information for configuring the data type of the network data to be collected (for example, the network configuration parameters to be collected) to obtain network data. After the first radio access network node obtains the collected data, it can send a second data collection response to the first network device. For example, the first radio access network node sends a second data collection response to the first network device based on the IP address of the server. After the first network device receives the second data collection response, it can determine the first data collection response based on the second data collection response and send the first data collection response to the server. For example, after the first network device receives the second data collection response sent by the first radio access network node, it uses it as the first data collection response and sends the first data collection response to the server based on the IP address of the server.

[0197] In some embodiments, before S211, the method 210 may further include:

[0198] The server obtains the first identifier and the second identifier from the first terminal.

[0199] Exemplarily, the server receives terminal information from the first terminal, and the terminal information includes the first identifier and the second identifier.

[0200] Exemplarily, the first terminal sends terminal information to the server.

[0201] Among them, the terminal information includes a first identifier and a second identifier. The first identifier is used to identify the first terminal, and the second identifier is used to identify the serving cell of the first terminal. For example, the first identifier is a Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier (C-RNTI), and the second identifier is a cell ID or a New Radio Cell Global Identifier (NCGI).

[0202] In some embodiments, S211 may include:

[0203] The server sends the first data collection request to the first terminal;

[0204] Among them, S212 may include:

[0205] The server receives a first response from the first radio access network node, and the first response includes the network data;

[0206] The server receives a second response from the first terminal, and the second response includes the terminal data; the first data collection response includes the first response and the second response;

[0207] The server obtains the collected data by correlating the network data and the terminal data.

[0208] Exemplarily, the server sends a first data collection request to the first terminal.

[0209] Wherein, the first data collection request includes at least one of the following:

[0210] A session identifier, which is used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0211] An IP address, that is, the IP address of the server.

[0212] Information for identifying a regional scope, such as information for identifying the scope of a specific area (such as a tracking area, a cell).

[0213] Configuration information, including information for configuring at least one of a parameter type (such as RSRP) and a feedback type (such as periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support the collection of non-standardized data by the terminal or the radio access network node. In particular, the parameter type can include the data type of the network data to be collected, such as the network configuration parameters to be collected.

[0214] For the first terminal, after receiving the first data collection request, the first terminal sends a fourth data collection request to the first radio access network node based on the first data collection request.

[0215] For example, the fourth data collection request includes the information in the first data collection request except the information for identifying the regional scope.

[0216] For example, the fourth data collection request may include at least one of the following:

[0217] A session identifier, which is used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0218] An IP address, that is, the IP address of the server.

[0219] Information for identifying a regional scope, such as information for identifying the scope of a specific area (such as a tracking area, a cell).

[0220] Configuration information, including information for configuring at least one of parameter types (such as RSRP) and feedback types (such as periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, thereby supporting the collection of non-standardized data by the terminal or the radio access network node. In particular, the parameter type can include the data type of the network data to be collected, such as the network configuration parameters to be collected.

[0221] In addition, after receiving the first data request, the first terminal can collect data of the first terminal to obtain the terminal data of the first terminal; and then send a second response to the server.

[0222] Wherein, the second response includes at least one of the following:

[0223] Terminal data, that is, the data collected by the first terminal. For example, it includes a parameter type (such as RSRP) and the corresponding value; in particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, thereby supporting the collection of non-standardized data by the terminal or the radio access network node.

[0224] Session identifier, used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0225] For example, the first terminal can start collecting the terminal data of the first terminal after receiving the data collection confirmation, so as to avoid collecting invalid data (such as terminal data that cannot be associated with network data, which cannot be classified and affects the model training effect).

[0226] It should be noted that the session identifier can be sent by the server to the first terminal based on the implementation, so that when the first terminal receives the third data collection request, it can judge whether the third data collection request comes from a data collection request sent by a server it trusts based on the session identifier sent by the server and the session identifier carried in the third data collection request.

[0227] For the first radio access network node, after receiving the fourth data collection request, it can collect data to obtain network data, and then send a first response to the server.

[0228] Wherein, the first response includes at least one of the following:

[0229] Session identifier, used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0230] Network data, that is, the data collected by the first radio access network node.

[0231] Based on this, after the server receives the first response and the second response, it associates the network data in the first response and the terminal data in the second response to obtain the collected data.

[0232] In some embodiments, the server obtains the collected data by associating the network data and the terminal data, which can be implemented as:

[0233] If the session identifiers in the first response and the second response are both session identifiers for identifying the first data collection request, the server obtains the collected data by associating the network data and the terminal data.

[0234] Exemplarily, if the session identifiers in the first response and the second response are both session identifiers for identifying the first data collection request, it indicates that the first response and the second response are responses received for the same data collection request initiated by the server, that is, the server obtains the collected data by associating the network data and the terminal data.

[0235] Next, in conjunction with Figure 3 , a data collection method according to an embodiment of the present application will be described from the perspective of the first network device.

[0310] The technical solution of the present application will be described below through Embodiment 1 - Embodiment 3.

[0311] Embodiment 1:

[0312] In this embodiment, by introducing the first classification identifier, the first radio access network node can associate the collected network data with the terminal data collected by terminals of the same terminal type (i.e., the first terminal whose terminal type is the terminal type identified by the first classification identifier) to obtain the collected data.

[0314] As Figure 6 shown, the data collection method 310 may include the following parts or all of the content:

[0315] S311, the first terminal indicates a first classification identifier to the first radio access network node.

[0316] Exemplarily, the first classification identifier may be an identifier dynamically sent by the server to the first terminal for indicating the terminal type of the first terminal. Optionally, the server may also dynamically update the first classification identifier based on the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier. The first terminal may indicate the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node by at least one of the following methods:

[0317] Method 1:

[0318] The first terminal may report the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node through the capability reporting process of the first terminal. For example, the first terminal may report the first classification identifier of the first terminal device to the first radio access network node through the capability reporting process during the initial access process.

[0319] It should be noted that this indication method may lead to inflexibility of the first classification identifier and the risk of exposing the capabilities of the first terminal to the first radio access network node.

[0320] Method 2:

[0321] The first terminal does not report the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node through the capability reporting process.

[0322] For example, the first terminal indicates to the first radio access network node that the first terminal supports collecting terminal data according to the classification identifier.

[0323] The first radio access network node sends a first request (also referred to as type information reporting permission) to the first terminal, for requesting the first terminal to report the first classification identifier of the first terminal. Optionally, the first request may further include a duration threshold; when the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier exceeds the duration threshold, the first device reports the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node, otherwise, it does not report the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node, so as to avoid the situation that the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier is too short and causes the first radio access network node to receive the first classification identifier and then quickly become invalid.

[0324] Specifically, the first radio access network node may send the first request to the first terminal device through a user equipment information request (UEInformationRequest) or other configuration in a radio resource control (RRC) reconfiguration (RRCReconfiguration with OtherConfig).

[0325] After the first terminal receives the first request sent by the first radio access network node, it feeds back the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node. Optionally, the first terminal may also feed back the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node, so that the first radio access network node can associate the first classification identifier with the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier.

[0326] Specifically, the first device may feed back the first classification identifier and the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier to the first radio access network node through a User Equipment Information Response (UEInformationResponse) or User Equipment Assistance Information (UEAssistanceInformation).

[0327] It should be noted that S311 only needs to occur before S315, and its specific location is not limited in this application.

[0328] S312, the server sends a first data collection request to the first network device.

[0329] Among them, the first data collection request includes at least one of the following:

[0330] The first classification identifier, which is used to screen terminals of a specific terminal type. When the classification identifier of the first terminal is the first classification identifier, the first classification identifier can be sent to the first terminal by the server based on implementation. Optionally, the server can also dynamically update the first classification identifier based on the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier.

[0331] The session identifier, which is used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0332] The IP address, that is, the IP address of the server.

[0333] Information for identifying the area range, such as information for identifying the range of a specific area (such as a tracking area, a cell).

[0334] Configuration information, including information for configuring at least one of the parameter type (such as RSRP) and the feedback type (such as periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support the collection of non-standardized data by the terminal or the radio access network node. In particular, the parameter type may include the data type of the network data to be collected, such as the network configuration parameters to be collected.

[0335] S313, the first network device selects the first radio access network node.

[0336] For example, the first network device may select a radio access network node within the area range as the first radio access network node based on the information for identifying the area range in the first data collection request.

[0337] S314. The first network device sends a second data collection request to the first radio access network node.

[0338] For example, the information included in the second data collection request is the same as the information included in the first data collection request.

[0339] For example, the second data collection request includes at least one of the following:

[0340] The first classification identifier, which is used to screen terminals of a specific terminal type. In the case where the classification identifier of the first terminal is the first classification identifier, the first classification identifier may be sent to the first terminal by the server based on implementation. Optionally, the server may also dynamically update the first classification identifier based on the remaining activation duration of the first classification identifier.

[0341] The session identifier, which is used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0342] The IP address, i.e., the IP address of the server.

[0343] The information for identifying the area range, such as the information for identifying the range of a specific area (such as a tracking area, a cell).

[0344] The configuration information includes the information for configuring at least one of the parameter type (such as RSRP) and the feedback type (such as periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support the collection of non-standardized data by the terminal or the radio access network node. In particular, the parameter type may include the data type of the network data to be collected, such as the network configuration parameters to be collected.

[0345] S316. The first radio access network node selects the first terminal.

[0346] For example, the first radio access network node determines a terminal of the terminal type identified by the first classification identifier in the second data collection request as the first terminal based on the first classification identifier. For example, the first radio access network node determines a terminal that is within the area range and of the terminal type identified by the first classification identifier in the second data collection request as the first terminal based on the first classification identifier and the information for identifying the area range in the second data collection request.

[0347] S317. The first radio access network node sends a third data collection request to the first terminal.

[0348] For example, the third data collection request includes the information in the second data collection request except the first classification identifier. Another example is that the third data collection request includes the information in the second data collection request except the first classification identifier and the information in the configuration information for configuring the data type of the network data to be collected (such as the network configuration parameters to be collected).

[0349] For example, the third data collection request includes at least one of the following:

[0350] A session identifier for uniquely identifying the first data collection request.

[0351] An IP address, i.e., the IP address of the server.

[0352] Information for identifying a regional scope, such as information for identifying the scope of a specific area (such as a tracking area, a cell).

[0353] Configuration information including information for configuring at least one of a parameter type (such as RSRP) and a feedback type (such as periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support the terminal or the radio access network node to collect non-standardized data.

[0354] S317. The first terminal sends a third data collection response to the first radio access network node.

[0355] Wherein, the third data collection response includes at least one of the following:

[0356] Terminal data, i.e., the data collected by the first terminal. For example, it includes a parameter type (such as RSRP) and a corresponding value. In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support the terminal or the radio access network node to collect non-standardized data.

[0357] A session identifier for uniquely identifying the first data collection request.

[0358] It should be noted that the session identifier can be sent by the server to the first terminal based on the implementation, so that when the first terminal receives the third data collection request, it can determine whether the third data collection request comes from a data collection request sent by a server it trusts based on the session identifier sent by the server and the session identifier carried in the third data collection request.

[0359] S318. The first radio access network node obtains the collected data.

[0360] For example, after receiving the third data collection response, the first radio access network node associates the terminal data in the third data collection response with the network data collected by the first radio access network node to obtain the collected data. Among them, after receiving the second data collection request, the first radio access network node may perform data collection based on the information in the configuration information for configuring the data type of the network data to be collected (for example, the network configuration parameters to be collected) to obtain the network data.

[0361] S319. The first radio access network node sends a second data collection response to the first network device.

[0362] For example, the first radio access network node sends a second data collection response to the first network device based on the IP address of the server.

[0363] S3110. The first network device sends a first data collection response to the server.

[0364] For example, after receiving the second data collection response sent by the first radio access network node, the first network device uses it as the first data collection response and sends the first data collection response to the server based on the IP address of the server.

[0365] In this embodiment, by introducing the first classification identifier, it is possible to associate the network data collected by the first radio access network node with the terminal data collected by the terminals of the same terminal type (i.e., the first terminals whose terminal type is the terminal type identified by the first classification identifier), which helps to enrich the types of training data of the model and improve the product performance of the model.

[0366] Embodiment 2:

[0367] In this embodiment, the first radio access network node associates the collected network data with the terminal data collected by the first terminal to obtain the collected data.

[0368] Figure 7 It is a schematic flowchart of a data collection method 330 provided according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0369] As Figure 7 shown, the data collection method 330 may include the following parts or all of the content:

[0370] S321. The first terminal sends terminal information to the server.

[0371] Among them, the terminal information includes a first identifier and a second identifier. The first identifier is used to identify the first terminal, and the second identifier is used to identify the serving cell of the first terminal. For example, the first identifier is a Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier (C-RNTI), and the second identifier is a cell ID or a New Radio Cell Global Identifier (NCGI).

[0372] S322, the server sends a first data collection request to the first network device.

[0379] Configuration information, including information for configuring at least one of a parameter type (such as RSRP) and a feedback type (such as periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support the collection of non-standardized data by a terminal or a radio access network node. In particular, the parameter type can include the data type of network data to be collected, such as network configuration parameters to be collected.

[0380] S323, the first network device sends a second data collection request to the first radio access network node.

[0381] For example, the second data collection request includes the information in the first data collection request except the second identifier.

[0382] For example, the second data collection request includes at least one of the following:

[0383] The first identifier.

[0384] A session identifier, which is used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0385] An IP address, that is, the IP address of the server.

[0386] Information for identifying a regional scope, such as information for identifying the scope of a specific area (e.g., a tracking area, a cell).

[0387] Configuration information, including information for configuring at least one of a parameter type (e.g., RSRP) and a feedback type (e.g., periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support a terminal or a radio access network node in collecting non-standardized data. In particular, the parameter type can include the data type of network data to be collected, such as network configuration parameters to be collected.

[0388] S324, the first radio access network node sends a third data collection request to the first terminal.

[0389] For example, the third data collection request includes information other than the first identifier in the second data collection request. Again, for example, the third data collection request includes information other than the first identifier and the information in the configuration information for configuring the data type of network data to be collected (e.g., network configuration parameters to be collected) in the second data collection request.

[0390] For example, the third data collection request includes at least one of the following:

[0391] A session identifier for uniquely identifying the first data collection request.

[0392] An IP address, i.e., the IP address of the server.

[0393] Information for identifying a regional scope, such as information for identifying the scope of a specific area (e.g., a tracking area, a cell).

[0394] Configuration information, including information for configuring at least one of a parameter type (e.g., RSRP) and a feedback type (e.g., periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support a terminal or a radio access network node in collecting non-standardized data.

[0395] S325, the first terminal sends a third data collection response to the first radio access network node.

[0396] Wherein, the third data collection response includes at least one of the following:

[0397] Terminal data, i.e., data collected by the first terminal. For example, it includes a parameter type (e.g., RSRP) and corresponding values; in particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support a terminal or a radio access network node in collecting non-standardized data.

[0398] A session identifier for uniquely identifying the first data collection request.

[0399] It should be noted that the session identifier can be sent by the server to the first terminal for the first terminal to determine whether the third data collection request comes from a data collection request sent by a server it trusts based on the session identifier sent by the server and the session identifier carried in the third data collection request when receiving the third data collection request.

[0400] S326, the first radio access network node obtains the collected data.

[0401] For example, after the first radio access network node receives the third data collection response, it associates the terminal data in the third data collection response with the network data collected by the first radio access network node to obtain the collected data. Among them, after the first radio access network node receives the second data collection request, it can perform data collection based on the information in the configuration information for configuring the data type of the network data to be collected (such as the network configuration parameters to be collected) to obtain the network data.

[0402] S327, the first radio access network node sends a second data collection response to the first network device.

[0403] For example, the first radio access network node sends a second data collection response to the first network device based on the IP address of the server.

[0404] S328, the first network device sends a first data collection response to the server.

[0405] For example, after the first network device receives the second data collection response sent by the first radio access network node, it uses it as the first data collection response and sends the first data collection response to the server based on the IP address of the server.

[0406] In this embodiment, by introducing the first identifier and the second identifier, it is possible to associate the network data collected by the first radio access node and the terminal data collected by the first terminal, which helps to enrich the types of training data of the model and improve the product performance of the model.

[0407] Embodiment 3:

[0408] In this embodiment, the server obtains the network data collected by the first radio access network node from the first radio access network node, and the terminal data collected by the first terminal from the first terminal, and associates the network data and the terminal data to obtain the collected data.

[0409] Figure 8 It is a schematic flowchart of a data collection method 330 provided according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0410] As Figure 8As shown, the data collection method 330 may include some or all of the following:

[0411] S331, the server sends a first data collection request to the first terminal.

[0412] Among them, the first data collection request includes at least one of the following:

[0413] Session identifier, used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0414] IP address, that is, the IP address of the server.

[0415] Information for identifying the area range, such as information for identifying the range of a specific area (such as a tracking area, a cell).

[0416] Configuration information, including information for configuring at least one of the parameter type (such as RSRP) and the feedback type (such as periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, so as to support the terminal or the radio access network node to collect non-standardized data. In particular, the parameter type may include the data type of the network data to be collected, such as the network configuration parameters to be collected.

[0417] S332, the first radio access node sends a data collection permission to the first terminal device.

[0418] Among them, the data collection permission is used to notify the first terminal to send a collection request for network data to the first radio access network node.

[0419] S333, the first terminal sends a fourth data collection request to the first radio access network node.

[0420] For example, the fourth data collection request includes the information in the first data collection request except the information for identifying the area range.

[0421] For example, the fourth data collection request may include at least one of the following:

[0422] Session identifier, used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0423] IP address, that is, the IP address of the server.

[0424] Information for identifying the area range, such as information for identifying the range of a specific area (such as a tracking area, a cell).

[0425] Configuration information, including information for configuring at least one of a parameter type (such as RSRP) and a feedback type (such as periodic feedback). In particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, thereby supporting the collection of non-standardized data by a terminal or a radio access network node. In particular, the parameter type can include the data type of network data to be collected, such as network configuration parameters to be collected.

[0426] S334a, the first radio access network node sends a first response to the server.

[0427] Wherein, the first response includes at least one of the following:

[0428] A session identifier, used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0429] Network data, that is, the data collected by the first radio access network node.

[0430] S334b, the first radio access network node sends a data collection confirmation to the terminal device.

[0431] Wherein, the data collection confirmation may include a session identifier.

[0432] S335, the first terminal sends a second response to the server.

[0433] Wherein, the second response includes at least one of the following:

[0434] Terminal data, that is, the data collected by the first terminal. For example, it includes a parameter type (such as RSRP) and corresponding values; in particular, the parameter type can be represented by an ID, thereby supporting the collection of non-standardized data by a terminal or a radio access network node.

[0435] A session identifier, used to uniquely identify the first data collection request.

[0436] For example, the first terminal can start collecting the terminal data of the first terminal after receiving the data collection confirmation, so as to avoid collecting invalid data (such as terminal data that cannot be associated with network data, which cannot be classified and affects the model training effect)

[0437] It should be noted that the session identifier can be sent by the server to the first terminal based on the implementation, so that when the first terminal receives the third data collection request, it can judge whether the third data collection request comes from a data collection request sent by a server it trusts based on the session identifier sent by the server and the session identifier carried in the third data collection request.

[0438] S336, the server obtains the collected data.

[0439] For example, after the server receives the first response and the second response, it correlates the network data in the first response with the terminal data in the second response to obtain the collected data.

[0440] It should be noted that in this embodiment, S332 or S334b may be an optional step. That is, after the first terminal receives the first data collection request, it can directly send a fourth data collection request to the first radio access network node and send a second response to the server.

[0441] In this embodiment, after the server obtains the network data from the first radio access network node and the terminal data from the first terminal, it can correlate the network data and the terminal data, which helps to enrich the types of training data for the model and improve the product performance of the model.
