Addressing processing method and apparatus, storage medium, and electronic apparatus

1 . An addressing processing method, applied to an Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) and comprising:

receiving a locating request sent by a Gateway Mobile Location Center (GMLC), wherein the locating request carries a GMLC address or a Location Management Function (LMF) identifier (ID);

determining, in a Mobile Equipment Console (MEC) in which the GMLC is deployed, a target LMF address corresponding to the GMLC address or the LMF ID, wherein determining, in the MEC in which the GMLC is deployed, the target LMF address corresponding to the GMLC address or the LMF ID comprises: determining the target LMF address corresponding to the GMLC address according to pre-configured correspondences between GMLC addresses and LMF addresses; or determining the target LMF address corresponding to the LMF ID according to pre-configured correspondences between LMF IDs and LMF addresses; and

sending a locating request to the target LMF address, wherein the locating request is used for instructing a target LMF corresponding to the target LMF address to locate target User Equipment (UE).

2 . The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

configuring correspondences between GMLC addresses and LMF addresses in the MEC; or

configuring correspondences between LMF IDs and LMF addresses in the MEC.

3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein after sending the locating request to the target LMF address, the method further comprises:

receiving a locating response sent by the target LMF corresponding to the target LMF address after the target LMF corresponding to the target LMF address locates the target UE, wherein the locating response carries location information of the target UE.

4 . An addressing processing apparatus, applied to an Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) and comprising a memory storing instructions and a processor in communication with the memory, wherein the processor is configured to execute the instructions to:

receive a locating request sent by a Gateway Mobile Location Center (GMLC), wherein the locating request carries a GMLC address or a Location Management Function (LMF) identifier ID;

determine, in a Mobile Equipment Console (MEC) in which the GMLC is deployed, a target LMF address corresponding to the GMLC address or the LMF ID; and

send a locating request to the target LMF address, wherein the locating request is used for instructing a target LMF corresponding to the target LMF address to locate target User Equipment (UE),

wherein the processor is further configured to execute the instructions to determine the target LMF address corresponding to the GMLC address according to pre-configured correspondences between GMLC addresses and LMF addresses; or determine the target LMF address corresponding to the LMF ID according to pre-configured correspondences between LMF IDs and LMF addresses.

5 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, wherein the computer-readable storage medium stores a computer program, and the computer program is configured to execute the method according to claim 1 when running.

6 . An electronic apparatus, comprising a memory and a processor, wherein the memory stores a computer program, and the processor is configured to run the computer program to execute the method according to claim 1 .

7 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the locating request sent by the GMLC comprises a request message for a service of providing location information.

8 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the locating request sent to the target LMF address comprises a request message for an operation service of determining location.

9 . The apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the instructions to

configure correspondences between GMLC addresses and LMF addresses in the MEC; or configure correspondences between LMF IDs and LMF addresses in the MEC.

10 . The apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the instructions to receive a locating response sent by the target LMF corresponding to the target LMF address after the target LMF corresponding to the target LMF address locates the target UE, wherein the locating response carries location information of the target UE.

11 . The apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the locating request sent by the GMLC comprises a request message for a service of providing location information.

12 . The apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the locating request sent to the target LMF address comprises a request message for an operation service of determining location.
