具体实施方式
在下文中将结合附图对本公开的示范性实施例进行描述。为了清楚和简明起见,在说明书中并未描述实际实施方式的所有特征。然而,应该了解,在开发任何这种实际实施例的过程中必须做出很多特定于实施方式的决定,以便实现开发人员的具体目标,例如,符合与系统及业务相关的那些限制条件,并且这些限制条件可能会随着实施方式的不同而有所改变。此外,还应该了解,虽然开发工作有可能是非常复杂和费时的,但对得益于本公开内容的本领域技术人员来说,这种开发工作仅仅是例行的任务。
在此,还需要说明的一点是,为了避免因不必要的细节而模糊了本公开,在附图中仅仅示出了与根据本公开的方案密切相关的设备结构和/或处理步骤,而省略了与本公开关系不大的其它细节。
下面将参照图1至图17来描述根据本公开的实施例。首先,将参照图1描述根据本公开的实施例的无线通信系统的示例。图1是示出根据本公开的实施例的无线通信系统的示意框图。
如图1所示,根据本公开的实施例的无线通信系统100可包括第一基站102、第二基站104、第三基站106和用户设备108。其中,第一基站102和第二基站104通过不同的载波与用户设备108进行无线数据连接,并且触发节点在判断满足第二基站104向用户设备108提供的业务转移至第三基站106的预定转移条件的情况下触发转移过程,以使得用户设备108释放与第二基站104间的无线数据连接,建立与第三基站106的无线数据连接,从而由第一基站102和第三基站106通过不同的载波与用户设备108进行无线数据连接,其中,原始由第二基站104提供的业务的至少一部分被转移至第三基站106。
第二基站104向用户设备108提供的业务转移至第三基站106的预定转移条件包括以下因素中的一个或多个:第三基站106比第二基站104的服务质量高出预定阈值;第三基站106的服务质量高于预定阈值;以及第二基站104的服务质量低于第一预定阈值且第三基站106的服务质量高于第二预定 阈值;等等。应理解,上述预定转移条件是在假设已从第一基站102和第二基站104中确定了要转移的对象的情况下而描述的。
另一方面,当通过不同的载波与用户设备进行无线数据连接的两个基站同时满足预定转移条件时,在未确定先转移哪个基站(即分为两步进行转移的过程中,哪一个基站是第一基站102,哪一个基站是第二基站104,哪一个基站是第三基站106)的情况下,作为一个可选的例子,上述预定转移条件还可包括例如其中一个基站比另一基站的服务质量高。
优选地,当从上述两个基站中确定要转移的对象时,需要将关于这两个基站的服务载波的测量结果报告给触发节点,然后触发节点将基于基站类型(例如,主节点/从节点,宏基站/低功率节点,等等)、信道质量或者负载状况等等来确定首先要开始对于哪个基站的转移过程。作为一个可选的例子,如果一个基站的信道质量低于预定阈值并且接近失败而另一个基站正好在寻找更好的邻居,则将信道质量最差的基站确定为要转移的对象,并且首先开始对于该基站的转移过程。作为另一个可选的例子,如果两个基站具有大致相同的信道质量,则将具有较重负载的基站确定为要转移的对象,并且首先开始对于该基站的转移过程。
此外,优选地,在原始由第二基站104提供的业务无法全部被转移至第三基站106的情况下,转移过程还使得原始由第二基站104提供的业务的一部分被转移至第一基站102。应理解,尽管图1中仅示出了一个第一基站102,但是第一基站102的数量并不限于此,而是可以是包括多个第一基站的一组基站,例如联合处理(Joint Processing,JP)技术中的多个协作基站,从而在上述转移过程中,原始由第二基站104提供的业务的一部分也可以被转移至该组基站中的一个或多个第一基站。此外,在该情况下,以小区为单位来衡量多个第一基站的服务质量,例如,在协作多点传输的情况下,可将多个基站协作的载波视为一个小区来衡量多个协作基站的服务质量。
此外,可以理解,在上述转移过程中,由于第一基站102始终保持与用户设备之间的无线数据连接,第二基站104提供的业务被转移,并且原始由第二基站104提供的业务的至少一部分被转移至第三基站106,因此在本发明的一些实施例中,第一基站102也可被称为连接保持节点,第二基站104也可被称为连接转移源节点,并且第三基站106也可被称为连接转移目标节点。而上述触发节点是用户设备108当前所连接到的一个服务节点,例如可以是连接保持节点第一基站102,也可以是连接转移源节点第二基站104。
此外,还应理解,这里所采用的术语“第一”、“第二”和“第三”仅是 为了进行区分以便于描述而不构成限制,例如,在第一基站102符合连接转移源节点或连接转移目标节点的特征时,当然也可以是连接转移源节点或连接转移目标节点,这同样适用于第二基站104和第三基站106。
具体地,触发节点在根据所接收的关于至少第二基站104以及可选的第一基站102和第三基站106的服务载波的移动性测量结果而判断满足预定转移条件的情况下,向第三基站106发出包含第一基站和第二基站的相关信息的转移请求,第三基站106根据转移请求而执行第一接纳控制(first admission control)并且发出转移响应以通知第一接纳控制的结果,其中第三基站106可以向触发节点直接返回转移响应,也可以向用户设备108所连接的另一服务节点发出转移响应。
优选地,该转移响应可包括第三基站106能够针对用户设备108的哪部分数据承载进行通信、第三基站106同步接入所需的专用前导码、用户设备108与第三基站106通信的载波的系统信息、以及用于建立用户设备108与第三基站106之间的通信的控制面协议的配置信息。
优选地,如果第一接纳控制的结果表示第三基站106不能接纳用户设备108与第二基站104之间的全部数据承载,则根据第三基站106的转移响应(直接自第三基站106接收的转移响应或者经由第二基站104向第一基站102转发的第三基站106的转移响应),第一基站102根据第一接纳控制的结果而执行第二接纳控制并且将第二接纳控制的结果通知给第二基站104。
此外,优选地,第一基站102或第二基站104在获知第一接纳控制或第二接纳控制的最终结果之后,根据最终结果和第三基站106的转移响应向用户设备108发出通知消息以通知用户设备108进行转移过程,该通知消息包括以下内容至少之一:第一基站102能够针对用户设备的哪部分数据承载进行通信、第三基站106能够针对用户设备108的哪部分数据承载进行通信、第三基站106同步接入所需的专用前导码、用户设备108与第三基站106通信的载波的系统信息、以及用于建立用户设备108与第三基站106之间的通信的控制面协议的配置信息。并且用户设备108在收到通知消息后释放不能被第一基站102和第三基站106接纳的数据承载,释放与第二基站104的无线数据连接,并执行对第三基站106的同步接入操作。
此外,优选地,上述触发节点可以是第一基站102或第二基站104。
下面将参照图2和图3描述第一基站102和第二基站104分别作为触发节点的情况下的转移过程的场景示例。图2是示出根据本公开的实施例的由 第一基站作为触发节点来触发转移过程的示例场景的示意图,并且图3是示出根据本公开的实施例的由第二基站作为触发节点来触发转移过程的示例场景的示意图。
如图2所示,在第一基站102作为触发节点的情况下,用户设备108可将该移动性测量结果发送给第二基站104,然后由第二基站104将该移动性测量结果转发给第一基站102,如图2中的实线箭头所示,以作为第一基站102触发转移过程的参考。此例的优点在于,减少对现有标准(用户设备直接向服务基站上报该服务基站的移动性载波测量结果)的修改。此外,用户设备108还可以以例如“测量报告”向第一基站102发送关于第二基站104的服务载波(至少包含主载波)的移动性测量结果,如图2中的虚线箭头所示。此例的优点在于用户设备108可以直接向第一基站102发送关于第二基站104服务载波的测量报告,从而节约了第二基站104与第一基站102之间的信息交互。
接下来,第一基站102可在根据所接收的移动性测量结果的信息判断满足上述预定转移条件之后,以例如“转移请求”向第三基站106发出转移请求,然后第三基站106根据转移请求而执行第一接纳控制,并且以例如“转移响应”向第一基站102发出对转移请求的响应从而将第一接纳控制的结果通知给第一基站102,该第一接纳控制的结果表示第三基站106是否可以接纳用户设备108与第二基站104之间的全部数据承载或者可以接受哪部分数据承载。
此后,由第一基站102或第三基站106以例如“转移通知”将上述第一接纳控制的结果通知给第二基站104,并且由第一基站102或第二基站104根据该结果和第三基站106的转移响应、以例如“转移确认”通知用户设备108进行转移过程,已在上文描述了该通知消息“转移确认”所包含的具体内容,在此不再赘述。
优选地,如果第三基站106所执行的第一接纳控制的结果表示第三基站106不能接纳用户设备108与第二基站104之间的全部数据承载,则第一基站102可根据所接收的“转移响应”中包含的第一接纳控制结果而执行第二接纳控制,如图2中的虚线框所示。可以理解,通过由第一基站102执行第二接纳控制以将第三基站106不能接纳的数据承载的至少一部分转移到第一基站102,可以进一步保证用户设备108获得良好的服务质量。当然,这仅是优选示例而非限制,也可以在第一接纳控制之后直接通知用户设备108释放第三基站106不能接纳的业务而不执行第一基站102的第二接纳控制。经 过第一接纳控制和/或第二接纳控制的判断后,第二基站104释放原来通过第二基站104进行传输的、第三基站106和第一基站102不能接纳的无线数据承载,并通知核心网释放与该无线数据承载对应的核心网承载。
应理解,在该情况下,可由第一基站102在执行了第二接纳控制之后以例如“转移通知”向第二基站104通知关于第一接纳控制和第二接纳控制的最终结果,然后由第一基站102或第二基站104根据该最终结果以例如“转移确认”通知用户设备108,从而可以将第三基站106可接纳的数据承载转移至第三基站并且将第一基站102可接纳的数据承载转移至第一基站102。
用户设备108在接收到上述“转移确认”通知消息之后,释放不能被第一基站102和第三基站106接纳的业务,释放与第二基站104的无线数据连接,并执行对第三基站106的同步接入操作。
以上参照图2详细描述了在第一基站102作为触发节点的情况下的转移过程的基本信令流程,接下来将参照图3详细描述由第二基站104作为触发节点的情况下的转移过程的场景示例。
如图3所示,由于此时的触发节点是第二基站104,因此用户设备108只需向第二基站104通知其载波移动性测量结果,并且第二基站104在根据该测量结果判断满足预定转移条件后向第三基站106发出转移请求以触发转移过程。然后第三基站106在执行第一接纳控制之后向第二基站104发出对转移请求的响应消息“转移响应”以向第二基站104通知第一接纳控制的结果。接下来,可以由第二基站104或第三基站106将该结果通知给第一基站102,并且第二基站104根据所接收的“转移响应”而以“转移确认”向用户设备108发出通知消息。
优选地,与图2描述的情况类似,第一基站102也可以根据所接收的第一接纳控制的结果而执行第二接纳控制,具体地,当第二基站104接收到的第三基站106的“转移响应”表明第三基站106无法接纳用户设备108与第二基站104之间的全部数据承载时,第二基站104针对第三基站106无法接纳的数据承载向第一基站102发出“转移请求”,第一基站102根据该“转移请求”执行第二接纳控制,并以例如“转移响应”将接纳控制的最终结果通知给第二基站104,此后第二基站104根据该最终结果向用户设备108发出通知。在此例中,第一基站发出的“转移响应”包括第一基站102能够针对用户设备108的哪部分数据承载进行通信。
根据图2和图3的比较可以看出,这两种情况下的转移过程的场景类似, 区别仅在于作为触发节点的基站不同,从而导致某些信令的收发节点和时刻不同。因此,在图3中未详细描述的部分可参考图2,在此不再重复描述。
以上参照图2和图3详细描述了不同情况下的转移过程的基本信令交互的场景示例,以下将参照图4至图9详细描述在转移过程的基本信令交互之后,在不同情况下各个网络节点之间的数据前转(data forwarding)和路由切换(path switch)的场景示例。
图4是示出根据本公开的实施例的在第一、第二和第三基站的数据在转移过程触发之前和完成之后均是直接从核心网路由而来并且用户设备与第三基站的同步接入成功的情况下的示例场景的示意图。
具体地,如果第一基站102、第二基站104和第三基站106的数据在转移过程触发之前和完成之后均是直接从核心网路由而来,则第二基站104根据所接收的第一接纳控制的结果而执行数据前转操作以将第三基站106可接纳的第一数据承载的数据前转至第三基站106,以及还根据第二接纳控制的结果而执行数据前转操作以将第一基站102可接纳的第二数据承载的数据前转至第一基站102,并由第一基站102或第二基站104通知核心网将与第二数据承载对应的路由切换至第一基站102。
应理解,如果第一接纳控制的结果表示第三基站106能够接纳全部数据承载,则仅需向第三基站106前转被其接纳的第一数据承载的数据,否则还需要同时向第一基站102前转被其接纳的第二数据承载的数据。
在数据前转操作之后,如图4所示,如果用户设备108对第三基站106的同步接入成功,则第三基站106通知核心网将与第一数据承载对应的路由切换至第三基站106。具体地,第三基站106可向移动性管理实体(MME)发出例如“路由切换请求”,移动性管理实体在接收到该请求之后向网关发出例如“修改承载请求”,网关在接收到该请求之后执行切换下行路由操作,从而使得第三基站106可接纳的第一数据承载的数据被直接路由至第三基站106,向第二基站104发送结束标志以告知经过第二基站104转发至第三基站106的最后一个数据包的编号。此后,网关向移动性管理实体发出例如“修改承载响应”,同时移动性管理实体在接收到该响应之后向第三基站106发出例如“路由切换确认”作为对路由切换请求的确认,以通知核心网端的路由切换操作完成。然后,第三基站106可通知第二基站104释放相关的用户设备信息,第二基站104在接收到该通知之后可释放与用户设备108及其业务相关的资源。
否则,如图5所示,如果用户设备108对第三基站106的同步接入失败,则用户设备108将通知第一基站102,第一基站102执行第三接纳控制,对第一数据承载进行接纳控制,在经过第三接纳控制之后通知第二基站104和第三基站106,以通知同步接入失败并且使得第一数据承载中第一基站102可接纳的第三数据承载的数据被前转至第一基站102,并且第一基站102还通知核心网将与第三数据承载对应的路由切换至第一基站102,同时,第一基站102通知用户设备108哪些数据可以通过第一基站102的载波进行传输以及哪些数据需要释放,并且通知第二基站104和第三基站106哪些无线数据承载需要释放,并通知核心网释放与该无线数据承载对应的核心网承载。
应指出,在同步接入失败的情况下,如图5所示,由于除了此时由第一基站102通知移动性管理实体之外,涉及核心网端的具体路由切换操作与以上参照图4所描述的过程类似,因此在此不再重复其说明。
从以上参照图4和图5进行的描述可以看出,对于根据第一基站102执行的第二接纳控制的结果而确定的第二数据承载,无论用户设备108对第三基站106的同步接入是否成功,都通知核心网将与其对应的路由切换至第一基站102,而对于根据第三基站106执行的第一接纳控制的结果而确定的第一数据承载,如果用户设备108对第三基站106的同步接入成功,才通知核心网将与第一数据承载对应的路由切换至第三基站106,而如果同步接入失败,则由第一基站102针对第一数据承载执行第三接纳控制,并且通知核心网将与根据第三接纳控制的结果而确定的第三数据承载对应的路由切换至第一基站102,也就是说,对于原始由第二基站104提供的与第二数据承载和第三数据承载对应的业务,此时由第一基站102提供该部分业务。此外,在同步接入失败的情况下,还需要通知用户设备108第三数据业务承载需要转到第一基站102进行传输,并且释放第一基站102经过第三接纳控制不能接受的数据承载。
接下来,将参照图6A、图6B、图6C和图7描述在第二基站104的数据是经由第一基站102前转而来的情况下的示例场景。其中,图6A是示出根据本公开的实施例的在第二基站和第三基站的数据是通过第一基站前转而来并且用户设备与第三基站的同步接入成功的情况下的示例场景的示意图,图6B是示出根据本公开的实施例的在第二基站和第三基站的数据是提供第一基站前转而来并且用户设备与第三基站的同步接入成功的情况下的另一示例场景的示意图,图6C是示出根据本公开的实施例的在第二基站的数据是通过第一基站前转而来、而第三基站的数据在转移过程触发完成之后 由核心网直接路由而来并且用户设备与第三基站的同步接入成功的情况下的示例场景的示意图,并且图7是示出根据本公开的实施例的在第二基站的数据是提供第一基站前转而来并且用户设备与第三基站的同步接入失败的情况下的另一示例场景的示意图。
具体地,如果第二基站104和第三基站106的数据是从第一基站102前转而来的,则第一基站102在完成对第一接纳控制的确认或完成第二接纳控制之后,停止向第二基站104转发数据,以及第二基站104根据第一接纳控制的结果而执行数据前转操作以将第三基站106可接纳的第一数据承载的数据前转至第三基站106,以及还根据第二接纳控制的结果而执行数据前转操作以将第一基站102可接纳的第二数据承载的数据前转至第一基站102。
由于此时第二基站104的数据是从第一基站102前转而来的,因此第一基站102也需要向第三基站106执行数据前转操作,第一基站102可以在完成对第一接纳控制的确认后,与第二基站104同时执行数据前转操作以将第一数据承载的数据前转至第三基站106,而不管用户设备108与第三基站106的同步接入是否成功,如图6A所示。替选地,第一基站102也可以在获知用户设备108与第三基站106的同步接入成功之后才执行数据前转操作,如图6B所示,这更适合于第一基站102和第二基站104同时为一个数据承载传输业务的情形。
此外,第二基站104在完成数据前转操作之后自动释放与用户设备108的业务相关的资源。
特别地,如果第一接纳控制的结果表明第三基站106不能接纳全部数据承载,则在针对被第三基站106接纳的第一数据承载执行数据前转操作的同时,第一基站102除了停止继续向第二基站104转发数据外,第二基站104还需要将被第一基站102接纳的第二数据承载的数据转移回第一基站102进行传输。
替选地,如图6C所示,如果第二基站104的数据是从第一基站102前转而来的,而第三基站106的数据在转移过程触发完成之后是由核心网直接路由而来的,则在用户设备108对第三基站106的同步接入成功的情况下,除了以上参照图6A和图6B所描述的处理过程之外,还涉及核心网端的操作,即,第三基站106需要通知核心网修改与第三基站106可接纳的第一数据承载对应的核心网承载。具体地,在用户设备108与第三基站106的同步接入成功之后,第三基站106还向移动性管理实体发出例如“路由切换请求”,移动性管理实体在接收到该请求之后向网关发出例如“修改承载请求”,网 关在收到该请求之后执行切换下行路由操作,从而将第三基站106可接纳的第一数据承载的数据直接路由至第三基站106,并向第一基站102发送结束标志以告知经过第一基站转发至第三基站106的最后一个数据包的编号,此后网关向移动性管理实体发出例如“修改承载响应”,并且移动性管理实体在收到该响应之后,向第三基站106发出例如“路由切换确认”作为对“路由切换请求”的确认,从而通知第三基站106核心网端的路由切换操作完成。
然而,如果用户设备108对第三基站106的同步接入失败,如图7所示,与参照图5描述的场景类似,用户设备108首先通知第一基站102,第一基站102在接收到该通知之后停止向第三基站106转发数据,并且第一基站102在执行第三接纳控制之后通知第二基站104和第三基站106,以通知同步接入失败并且使得第二基站104和第三基站106针对第一数据承载中第一基站102可接纳的第三数据承载而向其执行数据前转操作,以使得第一数据承载中的第一基站102可接纳的第三数据承载的数据被前转至第一基站102并且第一数据承载中的第一基站102不能接纳的数据承载被释放。同时,第一基站102通知用户设备108哪些数据可以通过第一基站102的载波进行传输以及哪些数据需要释放。
从以上参照图6A、图6B和图7的描述可以看出,由于在这些场景下由第一基站102负责向无线通信系统中的其它基站转发数据,因此在同步接入操作成功和失败的情况下均不涉及核心网的路由切换操作。
此外,还应指出,尽管在图7中示出第一基站102和第二基站104同时向第三基站106执行数据前转操作,但是这仅是示例,并与图6B类似,第一基站102也可以先不向第三基站106执行数据前转操作,本发明对此不作限制。
以下将参照图8和图9描述在第一基站的数据是通过第二基站前转而来的情况下的示例场景。图8是示出根据本公开的实施例的在第一基站的数据是通过第二基站前转而来并且用户设备与第三基站的同步接入成功的情况下的示例场景的示意图,并且图9是示出根据本公开的实施例的在第一基站的数据是通过第二基站前转而来并且用户设备与第三基站的同步接入失败的情况下的示例场景的示意图。
具体地,如果第一基站102的数据是通过第二基站104前转而来的,则第二基站104根据第一接纳控制的结果而执行数据前转操作以将第三基站106可接纳的第一数据承载的数据前转至第三基站106,以及根据第二接纳控制的结果而执行数据前转操作以将第一基站102可接纳的第二数据承载的 数据前转至第一基站102。
如果用户设备108对第三基站106的同步接入成功,则如图8所示,第三基站106触发核心网执行路由切换以将从核心网发往第二基站104的数据直接路由至第三基站106,完成路由切换后第三基站106开始向第一基站102转发经由第一基站102传输的下行承载的数据,并且第二基站104在完成数据前转操作之后释放与用户设备及其业务相关的信息。具体地,在同步接入成功之后,第三基站106向移动性管理实体发出例如“路由切换请求”,移动性管理实体在接收到该请求之后向网关发出例如“修改承载请求”,网关在收到该请求之后执行切换下行路由操作,从而将第三基站106可接纳的第一数据承载的数据直接路由至第三基站106,并向第二基站104发送结束标志,然后第二基站104将该结束标志转发至第一基站102以告知第一基站经过第二基站104转发的最后一个数据包的编号,此后网关向移动性管理实体发出例如“修改承载响应”,并且移动性管理实体在收到该响应之后,向第三基站106发出例如“路由切换确认”作为对“路由切换请求”的确认,从而通知第三基站106核心网端的路由切换操作完成。
从图8可以看出,在同步接入成功的情况下,第二基站104在收到由第一基站102传输的业务的结束标志之后转发给第一基站102,然后在收到由第三基站106和/或第一基站102发出的消息“用户设备信息释放”之后释放与用户设备108相关的所有资源。
否则,如果用户设备108对第三基站106的同步接入失败,则如图9所示,用户设备108通知第一基站102,第一基站102在经过第三接纳控制之后通知第二基站104和第三基站106,以通知同步接入失败以及使得第二基站104和第三基站106针对第一数据承载中第一基站102可接纳的第三数据承载向其执行数据前转操作,同时通知用户设备108哪些数据可以通过第一基站102的载波进行传输以及哪些数据需要释放。
优选地,在同步接入失败的情况下,可以仍通过第二基站104向第一基站102转发第一基站102所传输的业务的数据(即,第一基站102原有业务的数据、第二数据承载的数据以及第三数据承载的数据)。在该情况下,当需要在小基站之间进行切换时,由于总是存在一个锚点基站(例如,此处的第二基站104)负责数据转发,从而仅需要通知锚点基站进行数据转发的转移即可。
然而,替选地,也可以在第一基站102完成第三接纳控制之后,由第一基站102或第二基站104通知核心网针对被第一基站102接纳的所有数据承 载的数据执行路由切换,以将经由第二基站104前转至第一基站102的数据对应的路由切换至第一基站102并释放与第一数据承载中的第一基站102不能接纳的数据承载对应的核心网承载,同时通知用户设备108释放第一数据承载中的第一基站102不能接纳的数据承载。
应指出,在同步接入失败的情况下,如图9所示,由于除了此时由第一基站102或第二基站104来通知移动性管理实体之外,涉及核心网的具体路由切换操作与以上参照图8描述的过程类似,因此在此不再重复其说明。
以上参照图4至图9描述了在各种情形下转移过程之后的数据前转和路由切换操作,但是应理解,附图及其相关描述仅为示例而非限制,并且本领域技术人员可以根据本发明的原理而对上述过程进行修改。例如,尽管以上以由第一基站102和第三基站106共同承担原始由第二基站104提供的业务的至少一部分,但是也可以由第三基站106单独地进行承担,而对于第三基站106无法接纳的业务,则通知用户设备108放弃该部分业务。此外,尽管在图4至图9中仅示出了第二基站104向第三基站106执行数据前转操作,但这仅是为了图示清楚而非限制,应理解,在第一基站102执行接纳控制的情况下,第二基站104同时也针对被第一基站102接纳的数据承载向第一基站102执行数据前转操作。
另外,还应指出,为了清楚的目的,在附图中仅示出了与本公开密切相关的一些信令交互,而对于本领域公知的其它信令交互,在此则不再赘述。
根据以上给出的本公开的实施例的详细描述可以理解,通过在满足预定转移条件的情况下执行上述转移过程,可以保证用户设备获得优化的服务质量,同时提高数据传输效率。
以下将参照图10描述根据本公开的实施例的作为连接保持节点的第一基站的功能配置的示例。图10是示出根据本公开的实施例的作为连接保持节点的第一基站的功能配置示例的框图。

接下来,将参照图12描述根据本公开的实施例的作为连接转移源节点的第二基站的功能配置示例的框图。图12是示出根据本公开的实施例的作为连接转移源节点的第二基站的功能配置示例的框图。
如图12所示,根据本公开的实施例的第二基站1200可包括接收单元1202。接收单元1202可被配置成在由作为连接保持节点的第一基站来触发转移过程的情况下,接收来自第一基站或作为连接转移目标节点的第三基站的关于转移过程的通知,该通知可包括第三基站执行的接纳控制的结果以及可选的第一基站执行的接纳控制的结果。

转移响应接收单元1308可被配置成从第三基站接收转移响应,该转移响应可包括第三基站执行的接纳控制的结果。
此外,优选地,第三基站1300还可包括转移确认接收单元1310。转移确认接收单元1310可被配置成接收从第一基站接收转移确认,该转移确认可包括第一基站执行的接纳控制的结果。
此外,对于图13中以虚线框示出的用户设备通知单元1312、数据前转单元1314和核心网通知单元1316,其功能配置与以上参照图12描述的用户设备通知单元1204、数据前转单元1206和核心网通知单元1208的功能配置相同,在此不再重复描述。
此外,应指出,与图10和图11所示的情况类似,在图12和图13中以虚线框示出的组成单元为可选的,本领域技术人员可根据实际需要而对这些单元中的一个或多个进行组合,并且任意这样的组合都被认为落入本公开的范围内。
接下来,将参照图14描述根据本公开的实施例的作为连接转移目标节点的第三基站的功能配置的示例。图14是示出根据本公开的实施例的作为连接转移目标节点的第三基站的功能配置示例的框图。
