Abstract:
The method for establishing a connection by a HNB comprising operations of: the HNB transmitting an “attachment request” message to an operation and maintenance center (OMC); the OMC transmitting an “attachment response” message to the MB; the HNB establishing a connection with an MME indicated by the “attachment response” message. With the method proposed, a UE can switch between HNBs in the same CSG through interface X2. Meanwhile, such information as the radio resource management and so on can be exchanged between two HNBs.

Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for maintaining service continuity in heterogeneous communication system, including: when a bearer is established on a SeNB/SeNB's cell for a UE or the UE tracking area is updated due to a bearer transfer, a MeNB sends a MME a serving identifier of a SeNB/SeNB's cell where the UE is located or a serving identifier of a eNB/cell which a user plane bearer of the UE is on; the MME determines a TA identifier/eNB identifier which the UE bearer is in, including a TA identifier/eNB identifier of the SeNB's cell where the UE is located, according to received serving identifier. On one hand, the MME may determine whether a UE moves out of the local home network according to the TA of the UE, and whether it is necessary to release the SIPTO@LN bearer. On the other hand, the MME may select the SGW according to the TA identifier/eNB identifier and the TA identifier/eNB identifier of a MeNB/MeNB's cell, or according to the TA identifier/eNB identifier where a user plane bearer of the UE is located, and notify the MeNB, so that the MeNB may, according to corresponding notification, establish or remain a UE bearer on the SeNB's cell, or transfer a UE bearer in or out of the SeNB's cell. By adopting above method, the continuity of user plane data may be maintained when a bearer is established on or moved to a small cell.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method of anonymously reporting minimization of drive test (MDT) measurements. According to the method, a mobility management entity (MME) obtains MDT data anonymity configuration which indicates whether MDT measurements are to be reported anonymously at a type allocation code (TAC) level; sends a TAC of a UE to a trace collection entity (TCE) if the MDT data anonymity configuration indicates MDT measurements are to be reported anonymously at the TAC level; sends an international mobile subscriber identification (IMSI) or an international mobile equipment identity and software version (IMEISV) of the UE to the TCE if the MDT data anonymity configuration indicates other information, e.g. Trace, is adopted for anonymously reporting MDT measurements. The present invention enables an MME to send different identities of a UE to the TCE according to different requirements for anonymity to implement anonymous reporting of MDT measurements.
Abstract:
A method of automatically adjusting a mobility parameter is disclosed. In the method, through sending the peer eNB the message containing different handover thresholds, the relative adjustment value corresponding to each threshold and/or the target frequency information to which the handover threshold is adjusted, the peer eNB can learn that which threshold is adjusted by the source eNB, so as to adjust the corresponding parameter. In this way, the accuracy and efficiency of automatic adjustment of the mobility parameter are improved, and the destination eNB can adjust the mobility parameters of all cells working on the same frequency, so as to guarantee that the adjustment of the mobility parameter for handing over from the source cell to the destination cell working on the same frequency has no negative influence. By the method of the present invention, the automatic adjustment of mobility parameter between different frequencies or different access systems becomes available and can be supported in the case of the self-optimization of mobile load balance and the self-optimization of mobile robustness, so as to improve the performance of mobile communication system.
Abstract:
The present application discloses a method for data forwarding in a small cell system, comprising: sending by a master base station (MeNB) to a target secondary base station (SeNB) information of a source SeNB or a source SeNB cell where a user equipment (UE) is located; determining by the target SeNB whether a direct data forwarding is feasible; notifying, by the target SeNB, the MeNB whether the direct data forwarding is feasible; and determining by the MeNB whether it is a direct data forwarding or an indirect data forwarding. The method for data forwarding provided in the present application may support both the direct data forwarding and the indirect data forwarding based on actual situation of the network, reduce data loss and failure of data forwarding, and improve the efficiency of data forwarding.

Abstract:
A system for configuring a UE-AMBR includes a MME to send the UE-AMBR to an eNB covering the serving cell of the UE, the eNB covering the serving cell of the UE establishes a radio access bearer of the UE on at least one secondary cell. The MME sends an AMBR of the UE in the primary eNB covering the serving cell of the UE and an AMBR of the UE in a secondary eNB to the primary eNB. The primary eNB sends the AMBR of the secondary eNB to the corresponding secondary eNB. The technical solutions of the present disclosure can make total rate of all non-GBR services of the UE be not larger than the UE-AMBR when the UE has multiple S1 bearers or one S1 bearer.
