Method and system for supporting fast recovery of user equipment

A method for supporting fast recovery of a User Equipment (UE), the method comprising:

• transmitting, by a UE, a RRC re-establishment request message to a second base station;
• requesting, by the second base station, UE context to a first base station, wherein the first base station is a serving base station before the failure occurs for the UE;
• transmitting, by the first base station, the UE context of the UE to the second base station;
• performing, by the second base station, a RRC connection re-establishment according to the received UE context.

A system for supporting fast recovery of a User Equipment (UE), the system comprising:

• a UE configured to transmit a RRC re-establishment request message to a second base station;
• the second base station configured to request UE context to a first base station, wherein the first base station is a serving base station before the failure occurs for the UE;
• the first base station configured to transmit the UE context of the UE to the second base station;
• the second base station configured to perform a RRC connection re-establishment according to the received UE context.
