Table two
After step 204, MME receive the response message that eNB returns, parse the renewal S1 interface user plane address information of eNB wherein, this address information is sent to the destination service gateway.
Step 205, destination service gateway are preserved this address information after receiving the renewal S1 interface user plane address information of the eNB that MME sends, determine the down user data of UE is sent to the indicated position of renewal S1 interface user plane address information of eNB.
ENB can determine whether voluntarily and need distribute new S1 interface user plane address for the SAE carrying that belongs to UE between itself and the destination service gateway, if the governable address resource of eNB is more, then eNB can carry out the address assignment operation, if the governable address resource of eNB is more in short supply, then eNB can not distribute new address.In the present embodiment one, it is more to establish the governable address resource of eNB.
Based on the other side's who is stored separately S1 interface user plane address information, transmit the user data of UE between step 206, destination service gateway and the eNB; ENB also based on kept and the source gateway between the former S1 interface user plane address information of this eNB of arranging, in preset period of time, the down user data that belongs to UE that the reception sources gateway sends to the former S1 interface user plane address information indication position of eNB, if in Preset Time, can receive the data that the source gateway issues, then reclocking, until in certain timing period, the source gateway of not receiving issues downlink data, then stop timing, with the former S1 interface user plane address information deletion of eNB.
In this step 206, the destination service gateway is based on the renewal S1 interface user plane address information of the eNB of storage, send the downlink data of UE to eNB, eNB upgrades S1 interface user plane address information based on it, monitor the data message on the respective communication link, determine which UE the upstream data that receives belongs to, the follow-up UE that is correlated with that sends the data to; Similarly, eNB is based on the S1 interface user plane address information of the destination service gateway of storage, send the upstream data of UE to the destination service gateway, the destination service gateway is based on its S1 interface user plane address information of storage, determine which UE the upstream data that receives belongs to, follow-up can the processing accordingly based on the business of this UE customization.
And, in the present embodiment one, because of eNB has distributed new S1 interface user plane address for the transmission bearer that belongs to UE between itself and the destination service gateway, it is the renewal S1 interface user plane address information of eNB, then for preventing that data that the source gateway sends to the former S1 interface user plane address of eNB are because of transmission delay, after eNB determines that the S1 interface user plane address information of gateway is modified, eNB does not receive the user data that the source gateway issues yet, by the temporary transient former S1 interface user plane address information that on eNB, keeps this eNB, monitor the user data that the source gateway issues on the pairing communication link of this address information, after determining that the user data of source gateway to this address transmission all received by eNB, eNB discharges the former S1 interface user plane address information of this eNB again, thereby guarantees the continuity of customer service.
The flow process of present embodiment one can finish.
Embodiment two:
In the present embodiment two, if set in advance new transmission bearer update inquiry information type, as SAE bearer update request (SAE BEARER UPDATE REQUEST) message, this message is as Indication message, can be exclusively used in MME the S1 interface user plane address information of destination service gateway is sent to eNB.
Referring to Fig. 3, Fig. 3 is the flow chart that obtains the S1 interface user plane address information of gateway in the embodiment of the invention two, and this flow process can may further comprise the steps:
Step 301, MME select with network side between set up the professional UE that is connected, definite needs switch to the business of this UE on the destination service gateway from the source gateway, then MME sends SAE bearer update request message, the S1 interface user plane address information of carrying the destination service gateway in this message to the eNB of UE correspondence.
After step 302, eNB receive the SAE bearer update request message that MME issues, parse relevant information wherein, the S1 interface user plane address information that comprises the destination service gateway, the S1 interface user plane address of determining to belong to gateway on the transmission bearer of UE is modified, and preserves this address information.
Step 303, eNB return the response message that expression receives SAE bearer update request message to MME.
Step 304, destination service gateway get access to the former S1 interface user plane address information of eNB from core net inside, and between the eNB based on the other side's who is stored separately S1 interface user plane address information, the user data of transmission UE.
