摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention make it possible to reduce loss and delay of downlink user data transmitted at regular time intervals in a mobile communication system employing a hard handover method, and make it possible to easily perform high-quality handover solely by a handover-starting base station. A base station for transmitting downlink user data at regular time intervals to a mobile station is disclosed. The base station is configured to transmit a handover-command signal immediately after transmitting the downlink user data to the mobile station.

An upper node and a handover source radio base station store setup information on an access bearer having been set up between the upper node and the handover source radio base station. A mobile communication method according to the present invention includes the steps of: (A) informing, from the handover source radio base station to a handover target radio base station, the access bearer setup information; (B) storing, at the handover target radio base station, the access bearer setup information informed of by the handover target radio base station; and (C) setting up, at the upper node, an access bearer between the upper node and the handover target radio base station by using the stored access bearer setup information without performing reallocation processing of new access bearer setup information, the access bearer being set up in response to a path switching request from the handover target radio base station.

A path control apparatus includes a sequence number assignment unit assigning successive sequence numbers to respective user data packets transmitted from an upper layer; and a transmission unit transmitting the user data packets with the assigned sequence numbers to a handover source base station or a handover target base station. A base station includes a sequence correction unit sorting at least one of a user data packet transmitted from a path control apparatus and a user data packet transferred from a handover source base station in a correct order in accordance with sequence numbers successively assigned to respective user data packets; and a transfer unit transferring one or more user data packets of the user data packets having the assigned sequence numbers, wherein the handover source base station has not transmitted the one or more user data packets or waits for transmission acknowledgement for the one or more user data packets.

A handover method according to the present invention includes the steps of: forwarding, at a handover-source radio base station (eNB), user data (A) for a mobile station (UE) to a handover-target radio base station (eNB) when it is determined that a handover processing is to be performed, the user data (A) being stored in the handover-source radio base station (eNB); activating, at the handover-target radio base station, a predetermined timer when transmitting a path switch request to a path control apparatus, and storing second user data for the mobile station received from the path control apparatus until the predetermined timer expires; and forwarding, at the handover-target radio base station, the stored second user data to the mobile station after the predetermined timer expires.
摘要:
A radio base station (T-eNB) is configured to set up a data forwarding tunnel for forwarding user plane data to the radio base station (T-eNB) only for an access bearer for which the user plane data to be forwarded exists, when receiving a notification from a handover-source radio base station (S-eNB) as to whether or not the user plane data to be forwarded exists for each access bearer. The notification being made by using a handover request message for the mobile station (UE), and the access bearer being set up between the radio base station (T-eNB) and a upper level node (SGW).

An upper node and a handover source radio base station store setup information on an access bearer having been set up between the upper node and the handover source radio base station. A mobile communication method according to the present invention includes the steps of: (A) informing, from the handover source radio base station to a handover target radio base station, the access bearer setup information; (B) storing, at the handover target radio base station, the access bearer setup information informed of by the handover target radio base station; and (C) setting up, at the upper node, an access bearer between the upper node and the handover target radio base station by using the stored access bearer setup information without performing reallocation processing of new access bearer setup information, the access bearer being set up in response to a path switching request from the handover target radio base station.
