摘要： Methods of proving an indication of a base station of a wireless communication network, user equipment and a network node are disclosed. A network node method of providing a user with an indication of a base station currently supporting user equipment comprises the steps of: detecting a mobility event indicating a relocation of the user equipment to the base station; and in response to the mobility event, transmitting a control message to the user equipment, the control message containing at least one predefined trigger associated with the base station, the at least one predefined trigger causing the user equipment to perform at least one of a plurality of different predefined operating procedures specified by the at least one predefined trigger to provide the indication of the base station to the user.

摘要： Methods for facilitating handover of user equipment between a macro base station and a femto base station of a wireless communications network, a macro base station, a femto gateway and computer program products are disclosed. The method of encoding information in a handover control message to facilitate handover of user equipment between a macro base station and a femto base station of a wireless communications network comprises the steps of: predefining handover identifier values to be utilised by said macro base station when generating said handover control message, each handover identifier value encoding an identifying characteristic of a femto base station within a macro cell supported by said macro base station and encoding an identifying characteristic of said macro base station; in response to a measurement report message received at said macro base station indicating a measured identifying characteristic of a target femto base station identified by said user equipment as a handover candidate, identifying a corresponding handover identifier value encoding said measured identifying characteristic of said target femto base station; and utilising said corresponding handover identifier value within a target cell identifier information element of said handover control message. By encoding the identifier value within the target cell identifier information element, existing handover control messages may be used without needing to make any protocol adjustments. The information may be readily encoded within this existing information element, and because the handover identifier value is encoded within this information element it can be ensured that this information is fully communicated throughout the network since the onward transmission of this information element is specified as mandatory. Accordingly, it can be seen that the information needed to be communicated to enable more efficient handover to occur can readily be provided within existing messages and the information provided within that message will be received by the equipment which needs to initiate handover.
