Mobile communication system
An object is to perform a priority control that is more elaborate than that is performed by using a QCI. In a mobile communication system according to the present invention, a mobility management node MME notifies a radio base station eNB, in an “Initial Context Setup procedure” or an “E-RAB Setup Procedure”, following pieces of information in an associated form: an “E-RAB ID” of an E-RAB to be established between a gateway device S-GW and a mobile station UE; one QCI that is assigned to the E-RAB; and one FPI that is assigned to data flow transmitted on the E-RAB. A radio base station eNB establishes, in response to the notification, one S1 bearer corresponding to the E-RAB between the gateway device S-GW and the radio base station and one DRB corresponding to the E-RAB between the mobile station UE and the radio base station.
1. A mobile communication system comprising a mobility management node, a gateway device, a radio base station, and a mobile station, wherein
the mobility management node notifies the radio base station, in an initial context setup procedure or a bearer setup procedure, following pieces of information in an associated form,
identification information of a radio access bearer to be established between the gateway device and the mobile station,
one bearer priority that is assigned to the radio access bearer, and
one flow priority that is assigned to data flow transmitted on the radio access bearer,
the radio base station establishes, in response to the notification, one S1 bearer corresponding to the radio access bearer between the gateway device and the radio base station, and
the radio base station establishes, in response to the notification, one data radio bearer corresponding to the radio access bearer between the mobile station and the radio base station.
2. A mobile communication system comprising a mobility management node, a gateway device, a radio base station, and a mobile station, wherein
the mobility management node notifies the radio base station, in an initial context setup procedure or a bearer setup procedure, following pieces of information in an associated form,
identification information of a radio access bearer to be established between the gateway device and the mobile station,
one bearer priority that is assigned to the radio access bearer, and
a list of flow priorities that is assigned to data flow transmitted on the radio access bearer,
the radio base station establishes, in response to the notification, one S1 bearer corresponding to the radio access bearer between the gateway device and the radio base station, and
the radio base station establishes, in response to the notification, one or plural data radio bearers corresponding to the flow priorities in the list corresponding to the radio access bearer between the mobile station and the radio base station.
3. A mobile communication system comprising a mobility management node, a gateway device, a radio base station, and
a mobile station, wherein the mobility management node notifies the radio base station, in an initial context setup procedure or a bearer setup procedure, following pieces of information in an associated form, identification information of a radio access bearer to be established between the gateway device and the mobile station, one bearer priority that is assigned to the radio access bearer, and
a list of flow priorities that is assigned to data flow transmitted on the radio access bearer, the radio base station establishes, in response to the notification, one S1 bearer corresponding to the radio access bearer between the gateway device and the radio base station, the radio base station establishes, in response to the notification, one data radio bearer corresponding to the radio access bearer between the mobile station and the radio base station, and
the radio base station instructs the mobile station to set up a priority in a Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) corresponding to each of the flow priorities on the data radio bearer.
