S302. The network switching device determines the mobility characteristic of the device to be switched according to the service data.

Wherein, the above-mentioned mobility characteristics may include mobility and immobility.

The data switching device may determine, according to the user plane data in the above service data, the number of mobile network cells accessed by the device to be switched within the first historical time period; and when the number of accessed mobile network cells is greater than or equal to the first threshold. In this case, determine that the mobility characteristic of the device to be transferred is mobility, that is, the device to be transferred is a mobility device; when the number of mobile network cells accessed is less than the first threshold, determine that the device to be transferred is a mobility device.

S303. For devices to be transferred with different mobile characteristics, the transfer device determines corresponding transfer recommendation information according to a preset network rate requirement threshold and an average historical service rate of the devices to be transferred.

When the device to be switched is a non-mobile device, since the NB-IOT network can meet the needs of most low-rate scenarios, LTE can meet the needs of medium-rate networking and voice services, and 5G technology can meet the needs of higher-rate networking Therefore, for a non-mobile device, three rate threshold thresholds may be set, which are a first rate threshold, a second rate threshold and a third rate threshold, respectively. Wherein, the first rate threshold is smaller than the second rate threshold, and the second rate threshold is smaller than the third rate threshold. Afterwards, the switching device may determine the switching target network according to the three rate thresholds.

Specifically, the network switching device may first determine the average rate of historical services of the device to be switched, and compare the average rate of historical services with the three rate thresholds. If the average rate of historical services of the equipment to be switched is less than or equal to If the average rate of the historical service of the device to be transferred is greater than the first rate threshold and less than or equal to the second rate threshold, it is recommended to transfer to the LTE network; If the average historical service rate of the device to be transferred is greater than the second rate threshold and less than or equal to the third rate threshold, it is recommended to transfer to the 5G network.

In the case where the device to be transferred is a mobile device, since NB-IoT is suitable for application scenarios with weak mobility support (such as smart meter reading and smart parking, etc.), and NB-IoT does not support mobility in the connected state Management, including related measurements, measurement reports, handovers, etc. Therefore, the target network can include LTE that meets the needs of medium and low-speed networking and 5G networks that meet the needs of high-speed networking. The switching device may set two rate thresholds, which are a fourth rate threshold and a fifth rate threshold, respectively. Wherein, the fourth rate threshold is smaller than the fifth rate threshold. Afterwards, the switching device may determine the target network for switching according to the two rate thresholds.

Specifically, the network switching device may determine the average historical service rate of the device to be switched, and compare the average historical service rate with the two rate thresholds. If the average historical service rate of the equipment to be switched is less than or equal to the first If the rate threshold is four, it is recommended to transfer to the LTE network; if the average historical service rate of the device to be transferred is greater than the fourth rate threshold and less than or equal to the fifth rate threshold, it is recommended to transfer to the 5G network.

It should be noted that, for a mobile device, it is not necessary to consider the coverage of the single-point network around it. However, due to the movement of the device, services need to be switched between different cells, so the network coverage in the resident area needs to be considered. to ensure business continuity.

Optionally, the access capability level of the LTE network may be category 1, that is, the network switching device may recommend that the device to be switched is switched to the LTE-cat1 network.

Optionally, the first rate threshold may be set to the theoretical maximum rate of the NB-IoT network, the second rate threshold may be set to the theoretical maximum rate of the LTE-cat1 network, and the third rate threshold may be set to the 5G network. The theoretical maximum rate, the fourth rate threshold can be set as the theoretical maximum rate of the LTE-cat1 network, and the fifth rate threshold can be set as the theoretical maximum rate of the 5G network.

Optionally, the network switching device can integrate industry information (the industry to which the network switching device belongs), module information (the network frequency band, network standard, brand, model, etc. supported by the network switching device), business behavior (data service occurrences) The main time, service flow, service frequency and other service behavior indicators), service performance (service rate, service delay and other service performance indicators), and network indicators (cell network coverage and cell resource utilization, etc.) and other information, comprehensively determine Transfer recommendation information. For example, take the device to be transferred as a non-mobile device as an example. The network switching device can first obtain the cells to which the equipment to be switched is connected within a preset time period, and obtain the location of the cells according to the latitude and longitude information where the cells are located, so as to obtain the geographical distribution of the equipment to be switched. Then, the network coverage around the geographic location is obtained according to the base station engineering parameter data, that is, to determine which network standards exist around the geographic location, and to check the network resource utilization of the cell under different network standards. Therefore, combined with the module support and network coverage, the network transfer recommendation information is comprehensively determined.

It should be noted that if the network resource load of the target network is not high, it can be suggested to transfer to the target network; if the network resource load of the target network is already high, the network side can be prompted for capacity expansion and upgrade, or the network can be prompted to upgrade the network. The Internet of Things devices implement a time-sharing and off-peak access strategy.

The network switching device may determine, according to the historical service data of the equipment to be switched, the demand for the voice service of the equipment to be switched. If the historical service data includes voice service data, it means that the device to be switched has voice service requirements; if the historical service data does not include voice service data, it means that the device to be switched does not have voice service requirements.

S305. If there is a voice service demand, the network switching device recommends switching to a long-term evolution LTE network.

If the device to be transferred has a voice service requirement, the transfer device can directly recommend the device to be transferred to the LTE network.

S303a: If there is no voice service demand, the network switching device determines corresponding network switching recommendation information according to the preset network rate demand threshold and the historical service average rate of the device to be switched.

If there is no voice service demand, the network switching device may further determine corresponding switching recommendation information according to the preset network rate demand threshold and the historical service average rate of the device to be switched. For the specific implementation process, reference may be made to the above S303, which will not be repeated here.
