Abstract
A handover processing method, apparatus, and system include: receiving a first handover trigger message sent by a first network element node; and sending a second handover trigger message to a second network element node according to the first handover trigger message, so that the second network element node hands over user equipment UE from the first network element node to the second network element node according to the second handover trigger message. Handover between small cells or between a small cell and a macro cell is implemented, and because a controller is used to perform handover, a handover delay is effectively reduced, and network performance is improved.
Claims20
A handover processing method, comprising:
- receiving a first handover trigger message sent by a first network element node;
- and
- sending a second handover trigger message to a second network element node according to the first handover trigger message, so that the second network element node hands over user equipment UE from the first network element node to the second network element node according to the second handover trigger message.
A controller, comprising:
- a receiving module, configured to receive a first handover trigger message sent by a first network element node;
- and
- a sending module, configured to send a second handover trigger message to a second network element node according to the first handover trigger message, so that the second network element node hands over user equipment UE from the first network element node to the second network element node according to the second handover trigger message.
A first network element node, comprising:
- a receiving module, configured to receive a measurement report sent by user equipment UE;
- and
- a sending module, configured to send a first handover trigger message to a controller according to the measurement report, so that the controller sends a second handover trigger message to a second network element node according to the first handover trigger message, so as to hand over the UE from the first network element node to the second network element node.
