Abstract
The present invention relates to communication field, and discloses a mobile communication method. As can be seen from various embodiments, in the process of the access entity performing a location update for the UE or performing a UE access procedure, when the UE needs to be paged, the UE is paged in the paging area administered by the access entity and it is prohibited to page the UE in the paging area administered by the access entity in the other network.
Claims20
A mobile communication method, wherein a user equipment registers with access entities of at least two networks and the access entities which accept the registration of the user equipment are associated with one another, and the method comprises:
- prohibiting paging the user equipment in a paging area administered by an access entity in another network of the at least two networks when an access entity in one of the at least two networks performs a location update for the user equipment or other access procedure.
A bearer transfer method, wherein a user equipment registers with access entities of at least two networks and the access entities which accept the registration of the user equipment are associated with one another, and the method comprises:
- sending, by an access entity in one of the at least two networks, a bearer transfer request to a Serving Gateway;
- deleting, by the Serving Gateway, after the Serving Gateway receives the bearer transfer request, bearer information in another network of the at least two networks which is originally associated with the access entity in one of the at least two networks.
An access entity, comprising an association module for associating access entities in another network of the at least two networks which accept registration of a same user equipment, and further comprising:
- an enabling modification module, configured to prohibit paging user equipment in a paging area administered by an access entity in another network of the at least two networks when an access entity in one of the at least two networks performs a location update for the user equipment or other access procedure.
A bearer transfer system, comprising:
- an access entity in one of at least two networks and a Serving Gateway;
- wherein the access entity in one of at least two networks is configured to send a bearer transfer request to the Serving Gateway;
- and
- the Serving Gateway is configured to delete, after receiving the bearer transfer request, bearer information in another network of the at least two networks which is originally associated with the access entity in one of the at least two networks.
