Abstract: The present invention presents a method for small cell communications, comprising: MME transmits a message of setting up a user plane for UE to a base station in a small cell cluster of the UE, wherein the messages of setting up a user plane include information about evolved radio access bearer as well as uplink tunnel identity and address of the transport layer assigned by SGW; the base station assigns downlink TEID and address of the transport layer to the UE, and responds to the MME; the MME transmits the downlink TEID and the address of the transport layer assigned to the UE to the SGW that serves the UE, and receives a response message from the SGW. Examples of the present invention further present an MME device, a base station device, an SGW device and a small cell communication system. The above scheme presented by the present invention provides a method of supporting the architecture and data transmission of small cells, which supports quick handover between small cells, reduces data loss during the handover, avoids multi-hop data forwarding, guarantees QoS, and improves user experience and system performance.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for establishing a user plane bearer are provided. The method includes receiving a transport layer address supported by a serving gateway (SGW)/packet gateway (PGW) from a mobile management entity (MME), selecting, by a radio access network (RAN) entity, directly the appropriate transport layer address to establish the user plane bearer, or after receiving the transport layer address transmitted by the SGW/PGW, selecting, by the MME, the appropriate transport layer address to establish the user plane bearer, or reporting, by the MME, the obtained transport layer address used by the access entity to the SGW/PGW to establish the user plane bearer.

Abstract: Various examples provide a method for radio resources management. An MCE or a GCSE AS or a UE receives usage information of eMBMS radio resources, and adjusts radio resources in response to a determination that there is an overload state. The MCE may re-configure the eMBMS radio resources. Alternatively, the UE or the GCSE AS may establish a unicast channel for transporting a GCSE service which was transmitted on an overloaded eMBMS bearer, and release the eMBMS bearer. The technical mechanism can make effective use of radio interface resources and reduce data loss.

Abstract: A method and a system for processing a Radio Link Failure (RLF) report, where when a User Equipment (UE) encounters an RLF in a first cell controlled by a first evolved base station and selects a second cell controlled by a second evolved base station to re-establish an Radio Resource Connection (RRC), are provided. The method includes sending, by the second evolved base station, the RLF report to every corresponding evolved base station according to the PCI of the first cell having been received from the UE, where the PCI of the first cell, the PCI of a second cell, the CRNTI of the UE in the first cell, and UE authentication information are carried in the RLF report, and authenticating, by every evolved base station the UE according to the UE authentication information. Another method for processing an RLF report, and two methods for adjusting a mobile parameter, are also provided.
