Home base station system and data access processing method thereof
A home base station system and method for managing data caching. The home base station system includes: a plurality of home base stations used to provide wireless communication to at least one mobile terminal, wherein the plurality of home base stations are connected to a wide area network via a local area network, and wherein the plurality of home base stations are interconnected via a local area network; and a server, wherein the server is connected to the plurality of home base stations via the local area network, and wherein the server is used to manage caching of data in a home base station system.
1. A home base station system, comprising:
a plurality of home base stations used to provide wireless communication to at least one mobile terminal, wherein the plurality of home base stations are connected to the mobile terminal; and
a server, wherein the server is connected to the plurality of home base stations;
wherein a serving home base station in the plurality of home base stations receives a data access request from a mobile terminal and transmits the data access request to the server;
wherein the server determines a target home base station storing data according to the data access request from the serving home base station; and
wherein the server transmits an identifier of the target home base station to the serving home base station.
2. The home base station system according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of home base stations include local caches.
3. The home base station system according to claim 2 , wherein a serving home base station in the plurality of home base stations transmits data stored in a local cache to a mobile terminal after receiving a data access request from the mobile terminal.
4. The home base station system according to claim 1 , wherein the serving home base station acquires data requested to be accessed from the target home base station via a local area network and transmits acquired data to the mobile terminal.
5. The home base station system according to claim 1 , wherein the serving home base station transmits the identifier of the target home base station to the mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal switches to the target home base station and acquires data requested to be accessed from the target home base station.
6. The home base station system according to claim 1 , wherein:
the server includes a global cache;
a serving home base station in the plurality of home base stations receives a data access request from a mobile terminal and transmits the data access request to the server; and
the server retrieves data from the global cache according to the data access request from the serving home base station and transmits the data to the serving home base station.
7. A server used in a home base station system, wherein the home base station system comprises a plurality of home base stations and the home base stations are used to provide wireless communication to at least one mobile terminal, the server comprising:
an internal transmission module for communicating with each of the home base stations;
an external transmission module for communicating with each of the home base stations and a backbone network; and
a caching management module for managing caching of data in the home base station system, wherein the caching management module determines a target home base station storing data according to a data access request from a serving home base station and transmits an identifier of the target home base station to the serving home base station via the internal transmission module.
8. The server according to claim 7 , further comprising: a caching directory module for recording information about data stored in local caches of the plurality of home base stations.
9. The server according to claim 7 , wherein the serving home base station acquires the data from the wide area network through the external transmission module, caches it at local, and returns the data to the mobile terminal.
