  • the present invention relates to the field of communications, and in particular to a method for handover between base stations and an evolved base station.
  • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Handover is a basic function for ensuring user mobility in a mobile communication system. Among them, ensuring lossless transmission of data during handover is a key technical problem.
  • the following takes the X2 handover as an example to describe the problems existing in the prior art.
  • the cross-base station handover in other scenarios has the same problem.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic flow chart of an existing X2 handover.
  • the specific processing of the handover scenario includes: Step S102: The user equipment UE reports a measurement report (Measure Report) to the source side eNB.
  • Step S104 The source side eNB sends a handover request (Handover Request) message to the target side eNB.
  • Step S106 After the target eNB control plane (RNLC) receives the handover request message, the user plane (RNLU) creates a new UE instance according to the configuration information of the control plane, and the new configuration takes effect immediately. After successful, the control returns a Handover Request Ack message to the source side eNB control plane.
  • Steps S108-S112 After receiving the handover request response message, the source-side eNB control plane sends a handover command (HandoverCommand) message to the UE, and notifies the UE to perform handover.
  • HandoverCommand handover command
  • Step S114 After receiving the handover command, the UE performs operations such as corresponding configuration, reset, and re-establishment. After successful, the UE synchronizes with the target cell, and sends a Handover Confirm message to inform the target eNB that the air interface link has been established. At this time, the UE starts transmitting uplink data to the target side eNB. Steps S116-S120, the target side eNB delivers the uplink data and then delivers the data to the S-GW.
  • SN Status Transfer sequence number state transmission
  • the target side eNB After receiving the Handover Confirm message, the target side eNB starts to send downlink data.
  • the target eNB sends a Path Switch Request message to the MME.
  • the MME After the MME performs a series of configurations, it returns a Path Switch Request Ack message to the target eNB. So far, both the UE and the S-GW switch to the target side e B, and the uplink and downlink data can be transmitted through the target side eNB.
  • 2 is a processing flow of a user plane of a target side eNB in an existing X2 handover, where the user plane RLC is an acknowledge mode (AM, Acknowledged Mode).
  • Step S202 The user plane of the target side eNB creates a new UE instance according to the configuration message sent by the control plane, and the new configuration takes effect immediately.
  • the serial number (SN) information of the PDCP is initialized according to the protocol, and the PDCP SN (Next_PDCP_TX_SN) of the next expected transmission message is initialized to 0, and the super frame number (TX HFN) of the next expected transmission message is initialized to 0, the next expectation.
  • the PDCP SN (Next PDCP RX SN) of the received message is initialized to 0, the superframe number (RX_HFN) of the next expected received message is initialized to 0, and the last PDCP SN ( Last Submitted PDCP RX SN) successfully delivered to the upper layer message.
  • Step S204 The target side eNB user plane receives the packet that is forwarded by the source side eNB, and includes two parts: a PDCP SDU that has been processed by the PDCP layer but has not been successfully sent, and the backhaul message carries the PDCP SN; The PDCP layer does not carry the PDCP SN.
  • the user plane of the target side eNB constructs a handover indication message, and after the user plane upper layer receives the handover indication message, the PDCP starts processing the downlink data.
  • the PDCP SN is used for the backhaul packet carrying the PDCP SN.
  • the PDCP sequence information is used for the backhaul packet that does not carry the PDCP SN and the new packet that is sent by the SI interface.
  • the HandoverConfirm message precedes the SN Status Transfer message. If the HandoverConfirm message precedes the SN Status Transfer message, the PDCP sequence number information is still the initial value when the PDCP performs downlink data processing. For the backhaul message that does not carry the PDCP SN and the new packet of the S1 port, the PDCP processing is filled. The PDCP SN information is incorrect. As a result, the UE cannot receive the packet correctly, resulting in downlink packet loss.

Abstract

L'invention porte sur un procédé de transfert inter-eNB et sur un nœud B évolué (eNB). Le procédé de transfert comprend les opérations suivantes : réception par le plan utilisateur d'un eNB côté cible d'un message d'indication de transfert suivie de la détermination pour savoir si un message de transfert d'état de numéro d'ordre (SN Status Transfer) a été reçu ou non avant la réception du message d'indication de transfert (S302); sinon, mise en cache du message d'indication de transfert et traitement de celui-ci jusqu'à ce que le message de transfert d'état de numéro d'ordre soit reçu et traité (S304). Selon la présente invention, le message d'indication de transfert du plan utilisateur qui arrive en premier est mis en cache et traité jusqu'à ce qu'un message de transfert d'état de numéro d'ordre soit reçu et traité, ce qui assure la précision des informations de numéro d'ordre PDCP lorsque le plan utilisateur traite le message de liaison descendante de la couche PDCP, réduit une perte de paquets due à une incohérence des informations de numéro d'ordre PDCP, et atteint ainsi les effets de transmission de données sans perte durant un transfert et améliore l'expérience utilisateur.
