Abstract
The present invention provides a method and system for handing over a terminal to a macrocell and terminal, access node and gateway. The method includes: determining that the terminal is in a frequent handover state or a fast moving state; handing over the terminal to the macrocell according to the frequent handover state or the fast moving state and a preconfigured handover criterion.
Claims16
A method for handing over of a terminal, comprising:
- obtaining, by a target access node to which the terminal is to hand over, the terminal's state information;
- performing handover determining, by the target access node, according to the obtained state information of the terminal.
A terminal, comprising:
- a monitoring unit, adapted to monitor a state of the terminal in a coverage range of an access node to which the terminal pertains;
- a report unit, adapted to report state information of the terminal, wherein the state information includes:
- whether the terminal is moving fast;
- whether the terminal is processing Ping-Pong hand over;
- hand over times in a preconfigured time period of the terminal;
- or
- hand over times in a preconfigured time period of the terminal, interval of the hand over, and whether to hand over among different cells.
An access node, comprising:
- an information obtaining unit, adapted to obtain state information of a terminal;
- and
- a handover unit, adapted to hand over the terminal to a macrocell after the handover unit determines hand over according to the obtained state information of the terminal.
A system for handing over a terminal to a macrocell, comprising an access gateway and an access node, wherein,
- the access gateway is adapted to monitor a state of the terminal in a coverage range of an access node to which the terminal pertains, and transmit information of the terminal to an access node;
- and
- the access node is adapted to obtain the state information of the terminal and determine handover of the terminal.
