Terminal device location determining method and device
A terminal device location determining method and a device. A core network device obtains location information of a terminal device reported by the terminal device and location information reported by a first base station. The core network device determines whether the location information of the terminal device matches the location information reported by the first base station, and if the location information of the terminal device does not match the location information reported by the first base station, the core network device sends a reject message to the terminal device. By determining, through comparison, whether the location information of the terminal device reported by the terminal device matches the location information reported by the base station, it can be determined whether a location of the terminal device is incorrectly determined.
1. A terminal device location determining method, comprising:
obtaining, by a core network device, location information of a terminal device reported by the terminal device and location information reported by a first base station;
determining, by the core network device, whether the location information of the terminal device matches the location information reported by the first base station; and
if the location information of the terminal device does not match the location information reported by the first base station, sending, by the core network device, a reject message to the terminal device,
wherein the location information of the terminal device further comprises:
location information broadcast by a second base station, wherein the second base station is a base station accessed by the terminal device;
auxiliary location information, wherein the auxiliary location information is information provided by an auxiliary positioning device, and the auxiliary location information is used to indicate a location of the terminal device; and
location information broadcast by a third base station, wherein the third base station is a base station whose distance to the second base station is shorter than a preset distance.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the core network device is a mobility management device, and the obtaining, by the core network device, location information of the terminal device reported by the terminal device further comprises:
obtaining, by the mobility management device by using a non-access stratum initial attach request message, a non-access stratum registration request message, or a non-access stratum security mode command complete response message, the location information of the terminal device reported by the terminal device.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the core network device is a location management network element, and the obtaining, by the core network device, location information of the terminal device reported by the terminal device and location information reported by the first base station further comprises:
receiving, by the location management network element, a request message sent by a mobility management device, wherein the request message comprises the location information of the terminal device and the location information reported by the first base station.
4. A core network device, comprising:
a transceiver module obtaining location information of a terminal device reported by the terminal device and location information reported by a first base station; and
a processing module determining whether the location information of the terminal device matches the location information reported by the first base station, wherein
the transceiver module further sends a reject message to the terminal device if the location information of the terminal device does not match the location information reported by the first base station,
wherein the location information of the terminal device further comprises:
location information broadcast by a second base station, wherein the second base station is a base station accessed by the terminal device;
auxiliary location information, wherein the auxiliary location information is information provided by an auxiliary positioning device, and the auxiliary location information is used to indicate a location of the terminal device; and
location information broadcast by a third base station, wherein the third base station is a base station whose distance to the second base station is shorter than a preset distance.
5. The core network device according to claim 4 , wherein the core network device is a mobility management device, and the transceiver module further:
obtains, by using a non-access stratum initial attach request message, a non-access stratum registration request message, or a non-access stratum security mode command complete response message, the location information of the terminal device reported by the terminal device.
6. The core network device according to claim 4 , wherein the core network device is a location management network element, and the transceiver module further:
receives a request message sent by a mobility management device, wherein the request message comprises the location information of the terminal device and the location information reported by the first base station.
