When the base station when upgrading configuration, if its transport address does not change, then can not carry the transport address tabulation that X2 interface is supported in the base station in this base station configuration updating information.
The form of table 1. base station configuration updating information
The cell title There is situation IE type and reference information
->type of message ??M
Other configuration informations of->base station are such as the TA list information of base station support ??M
->source base station Global ID ??M
The transport address tabulation that->source base station is supported ??O (the maximum transport address number of supporting of 1......) base station at present allows the transport address number of support to be 256 to the maximum
->>base station transport address ??O
(2) step S403
MME is after the base station configuration message that receives the base station transmission, from the parameter that this base station configuration message is carried, can obtain the transport addresses information behind this base station change, and it is saved in this locality, when X2 interface need be set up with this base station in other base station, can initiate request to MME, from MME, obtain the transport address of this base station; Perhaps, MME also can send notice to other base station after having upgraded its local transport address of preserving, the address behind this base station change is sent to other base station.
In specific implementation process, MME is after receiving above-mentioned base station configuration updating information, also will be according to the configuration parameter that carries in this base station configuration updating information, carry out corresponding process operations, and after handling EO, send response message to above-mentioned base station, whether this response message is used to indicate above-mentioned processing operation to run succeeded.
Said method according to the embodiment of the invention provides in the time of can change taking place in the transport address of base station, sends a notification message to MME, the transport address behind the base station change is sent to MME preserve.
Fig. 5 is the specific implementation process of said method, as shown in Figure 5, mainly may further comprise the steps according to the specific implementation process of the base station transport address alteration notification method of the embodiment of the invention:
Step S501: source base station has changed the transport address of self owing to configuration needs, and the base station configuration updating information of source base station after MME sends expansion comprises the transport address tabulation of source base station Global ID, this base station support X2 interface in this message;
After step S503:MME receives this base station configuration updating information, therefrom obtain the transport address behind the base station change, and the transport address behind the base station change is kept at this locality, according to other information of carrying in this base station configuration updating information (being configuration information) base station configuration updating information is handled then, if handle successfully, execution in step S505 then, otherwise execution in step S507 is equivalent to the processing of above-mentioned steps S401-step S403;
Step S505:MME sends the base station configuration updating success response to source base station;
Step S507:MME sends the base station configuration updating failure response to the base station.
As mentioned above, the technical scheme that provides by the embodiment of the invention, by at the extended base station configuration update message, when change takes place in the transport address of base station, in base station configuration updating information, carry the transport addresses information behind this base station change, then base station configuration updating information is sent to MME, MME is after receiving this configuration update message, therefrom obtain the transport addresses information behind this base station change, and preserve the transport addresses information get access in this locality, thus make other base station can from this MME, obtain the transport address behind this base station change, set up X2 interface with this base station, guarantee the normal connection of network, improved stability of network.
The above is the preferred embodiments of the present invention only, is not limited to the present invention, and for a person skilled in the art, the present invention can have various changes and variation.Within the spirit and principles in the present invention all, any modification of being done, be equal to replacement, improvement etc., all should be included within protection scope of the present invention.
