Radio base station device, handover control system, and handover control method
View Patent ↗A radio cell station CS that relays a call connection of a radio personal station PS to a management device ME, includes: a call connection control section that controls the call connection of the radio personal station PS; and a position registration request section that requests, of the management device ME, a position registration that associates identification information on the radio personal station PS with identification information on the radio cell station CS. When a request for handover from a radio cell station CS 3 to a radio cell station CS 4 is received from the radio personal station PS that conducts the call connection through the radio cell station CS, the call connection of the radio personal station PS goes through the radio cell station CS 4 and the radio cell station CS 2 under control. While the call connection going through the radio cell station CS 2 is being conducted, the position registration is not requested of the management device ME. When the call connection going through the radio cell station CS 4 and the radio cell station CS 2 is ended, the position registration is requested of the management device ME.
1. A radio base station device that relays a call connection of a radio terminal to a management device, comprising:
a call connection control section for controlling the call connection of the radio terminal; and
a position registration request section for requesting, of the management device, a position registration that associates identification information on the radio terminal with identification information on the radio base station device,
wherein if the call connection control section receives a handover request from the radio terminal that conducts the call connection through another radio base station device, then the call connection control section controls the call connection of the radio terminal in such a manner that the radio base station device and the another radio base station device both relay the call connection of the radio terminal to the management device; and
wherein while the radio base station device and the another radio base station device both relay the call connection of the radio terminal to the management device, the position registration request section does not request the position registration of the management device, and if the call connection relayed, to the management device, by both the radio base station device and the another radio base station device is ended, then the position registration request section requests the position registration of the management device.
2. The radio base station device according to claim 1 , wherein a call fanned by the call connection includes at least one of a voice call and a data call.
3. The radio base station device according to claim 1 , wherein the call connection control section controls a plurality of call connections generated by respective radio terminals at the same time for at least a given time; and
wherein the position registration request section does not request the position registration of the management device while at least one of the call connections is conducted, and requests the position registration of the management device if all of the plurality of call connections are ended.
4. The radio base station device according to claim 3 , wherein the call formed by the plurality of call connections controlled at the same time includes at least one call state.
5. The radio base station device according to claim 4 , wherein the call formed by the plurality of call connections controlled at the same time further includes a hold state.
6. The radio base station device according to claim 1 , wherein the call connection control section requests the handover if a reception level of a signal strength becomes a threshold value or lower.
7. The radio base station device according to claim 1 , wherein a call connection control section of the another radio base station device issues a position registration deletion notice to the radio base station device if the call connection that goes through the another radio base station device and the radio base station device is ended.
8. A handover control system comprising:
a management device for being connectable to a network; and
a plurality of radio base station devices for being connectable to a radio terminal respectively and for relaying a call connection of the radio terminal to the management device,
wherein a handover control is conducted if the radio terminal travels from a wireless area of a first radio base station device to a wireless area of a second radio base station device among the plurality of radio base station devices;
wherein each of the radio base station devices includes:
a call connection control section for controlling the call connection of the radio terminal; and
a position registration request section for requesting, of the management device, a position registration that associates identification information on the radio terminal with identification information on the second radio base station device;
wherein if the call connection control section receives a handover request from the radio terminal that conducts the call connection through the first radio base station device, then the call connection control section controls the call connection of the radio terminal in such a manner that the first radio base station device and the second radio base station device both relay the call connection of the radio terminal to the management device; and
wherein while the first radio base station device and the second radio base station device both relay the call connection of the radio terminal to the management device, the position registration request section does not request the position registration of the management device, and if the call connection relayed, to the management device, by both the first radio base station device and the second base station device is ended, then the position registration request section requests the position registration of the management device.
9. A handover control method in which a call connection of a radio terminal is relayed by one of a plurality of radio base station devices to a management device, the method comprising:
if receiving, from the radio terminal, a request for handover from the call connection going through a first radio base station device to the call connection going through a second radio base station device, connecting the call connection of the radio terminal to the management device through both the first radio base station device and the second radio base station device; and
requesting no position registration that associates identification information on the radio terminal with identification information on the second radio base station device while the call connection going through both the first radio base station device and the second radio base station device is conducted, and requesting the position registration of the management device if the call connection going through both the first radio base station device and the second radio base station device is ended.
