Abstract

Network configuration including: receiving, by a target primary eNB of user equipment, a handover request message transmitted by a source primary eNB of the user equipment, the handover request message containing identification indication information or service indication information of the user equipment in a serving eNB before handover.

Claims (57)

1. A base station serving as a target primary base station, comprising:

a memory that stores a plurality of instructions; and

a processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to:

receive a handover request message transmitted by a source primary base station of user equipment which is served in both the source primary base station and a

secondary base station, the handover request message containing identification indication information: and

transmit the identification indication information to the secondary base station of the user equipment, wherein the identification indication information includes an identifier of the user equipment in the secondary base station.

2. The base station according to claim 1 , wherein, the secondary base station performs resource configuration for services of the user equipment according to the identification indication information.

3. The base station according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is further configured to execute the instructions to:

generate an identifier of the user equipment in a joint service mode with the secondary base station; and

transmit the identifier of the user equipment in the joint service mode with the secondary base station to the secondary base station.

4. The base station according to claim 3 , wherein

the identifier of the user equipment in the joint service mode with the secondary base station comprises:

an identifier of the target primary base station, and/or an identifier of the secondary base station, and/or an identifier of the user equipment in the target primary base station, and/or an identifier of the user equipment in the secondary base station.

5. The base station according to claim 3 , wherein

the processor is further configured to execute the instructions to:

receive an identifier of the user equipment in a joint service mode with the secondary base station from the secondary base station of the user equipment, the identifier of the user equipment being generated by the secondary base station.

6. The base station according to claim 5 , wherein

the identifier of the user equipment in the joint service mode with the secondary base station comprises:

an identifier of the target primary base station, and/or an identifier of the secondary base station, and/or an identifier of the user equipment in the target primary base station, and/or an identifier of the user equipment in the secondary base station.

7. The base station according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is further configured to execute the instructions to:

receive an identifier of the user equipment in a joint service mode with the secondary base station from the secondary base station of the user equipment, the identifier of the user equipment being generated by the secondary base station.

8. The base station according to claim 7 , wherein

the identifier of the user equipment in the joint service mode with the secondary base station comprises:

an identifier of the target primary base station, and/or an identifier of the secondary base station, and/or an identifier of the user equipment in the target primary base station, and/or an identifier of the user equipment in the secondary base station.

9. The base station according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is further configured to execute the instructions to

transmit service indication information of the user equipment in a serving base station to a secondary base station of the user equipment before handover.

10. A base station serving as a secondary base station, comprising:

a memory that stores a plurality of instructions; and

a processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to:

receive identification indication information of user equipment which is served in both a source primary base station and a secondary base station before handover, the identification indication information being transmitted by a target primary base station of the user equipment, wherein

the identification indication information includes an identifier of the user equipment in the secondary base station.

11. The base station according to claim 10 , wherein

the processor is further configured to execute the instructions to:

generate an identifier of the user equipment in a joint service mode with the target primary base station; and

transmit the identifier of the user equipment in the joint service mode with the target primary base station generated by the base station to the target primary base station of the user equipment.

12. The base station according to claim 10 , wherein

the processor is further configured to execute the instructions to:

receive an identifier of the user equipment in a joint service mode with the target primary base station generated by the target primary base station from the target primary base station.

13. The base station according to claim 12 , wherein

the identifier of the user equipment in the joint service mode with the target primary base station includes:

an identifier of the user equipment, and/or an identifier of the target primary base station, and/or an identifier of the secondary base station, and/or an identifier of the user equipment in the target primary base station, and/or an identifier of the user equipment in the secondary base station.

14. The base station according to claim 10 , wherein

the identifier of the user equipment in a joint service mode with the target primary base station includes: an identifier of the user equipment, and/or an identifier of the target primary base station, and/or an identifier of the secondary base station, and/or an identifier of the user equipment in the target primary base station, and/or an identifier of the user equipment in the secondary base station.

15. The base station according to claim 10 , wherein

the processor is further configured to execute the instructions to

perform resource configuration for services of the user equipment according to the received identification indication information.

16. A base station serving as a source primary base station, comprising:

a memory that stores a plurality of instructions; and

a processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to:

transmit a handover request message to a target primary base station of user equipment before handover which is jointly served with a secondary base station, the handover request message containing identification indication information, wherein

the identification indication information includes an identifier of the user equipment in the secondary base station, and

the target primary base station forwards the identification indication information to the secondary base station of the user equipment.

17. The base station according to claim 16 , wherein,

the secondary base station of the user equipment performs resource configuration for services of the user equipment with reference to the identification indication information.
