Step 904, HeNB GW send the eNBconfiguration transfer message of carrying the first information and the second information to MME.
Wherein, HeNB GW is receiving after the first information and the second information, the first information can also replaced to the 3rd information; Accordingly, the first information in subsequent step just becomes the 3rd information.
Step 905, MME send the MME configuration transfer message of carrying the first information and the second information to eNB corresponding to the second information.
Step 906, eNB send the eNB configuration transfer message of X2 transport address, the first information and second information of carrying self to MME.
Wherein, in eNB configuration transfer message, also can not carry the second information.
Step 907, MME send the MME configuration transfer message of carrying X2 transport address, the first information and the second information to the upper layer node HeNB GW of HeNB corresponding to the first information.
If the first information is replaced to the 3rd information, MME sends the MME configuration transfer message of carrying X2 transport address, the 3rd information and the second information to HeNB GW corresponding to the 3rd information.
Step 908, HeNB GW be according to X2 transport address, and between eNB, set up X2 interface.
Step 909, HeNB GW send Indirect X2setup response (X2 sets up response indirectly) message to HeNB GW.
As shown in figure 10, the method that embodiment of the present invention the second HeNB GW initiates to set up X2 interface comprises the following steps:
Step 1001, HeNB, by ANR process, obtain the information such as ID, TAI of eNB, and determine the second information.
Step 1002, HeNB send the eNBconfiguration transfer that carries the first information and the second information to HeNB GW.
The first information is replaced to the 3rd information by step 1003, HeNB GW, sends the eNB configuration transfer message of carrying the second information and the 3rd information to MME.
Wherein, HeNB GW is receiving after the first information and the second information, can also the first information not replaced to the 3rd information; Accordingly, the 3rd information in subsequent step just becomes the first information.
Step 1004, MME send the MME configuration transfer message of carrying the second information and the 3rd information to eNB corresponding to the second information.
Step 1005, eNB send the eNB configuration transfer message of X2 transport address, the second information and the 3rd information of carrying self to MME.
Wherein, in eNB configuration transfer message, also can not carry the second information.
Step 1006, MME send the MME configuration transfer message of carrying X2 transport address, the second information and the 3rd information to HeNB GW corresponding to the 3rd information.
If the first information is not replaced to the 3rd information, MME sends the MMEcoBfiguration transfer message of carrying X2 transport address, the first information and the second information to the upper layer node HeNB GW of HeNB corresponding to the first information.
Step 1007, HeNB GW be according to X2 transport address, and between eNB, set up X2 interface.
Step 1008, HeNB GW forward the MME configuration transfer message of carrying X2 transport address, the second information and the 3rd information to HeNB.
Between step 1009, HeNB and HeNB GW, set up X2 interface.
As shown in figure 11, in embodiment of the present invention the first application scenarios schematic diagram, eNB can set up the X2 interface (or HeNB GW can set up the X2 interface between eNB automatically by ANR process) between HeNB GW automatically by ANR process, HeNB GW can set up X2 interface again and between the each HeNB of subordinate community afterwards, for mobility optimizing process is below prepared.
As shown in figure 12, in embodiment of the present invention the second application scenarios schematic diagram, in the time that MME receives the eNB ID request message that eNB sends, if find that this HeNB is directly connected with MME, there is not HeNB GW node, can directly reply so eNB ID inquiry failure message, cancel X2 process of establishing, if find that this HeNB exists HeNB GW node, return to the eNB ID inquiry response message of carrying HeNB GW ID.
