Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a radio bearer establishment method and a base station and relate to the communications field. The method provided in the embodiments of the present invention includes: sending, by a first base station, first request information to a second base station, so that the second base station establishes a radio bearer between the second base station and user equipment UE according to the first request information, where the radio bearer includes a signaling radio bearer SRB, or a data radio bearer DRB, or an SRB and a DRB; and receiving, by the first base station, first response information sent by the second base station, where the first response information includes radio bearer establishment information that is used to indicate, to the first base station, a success or a failure to establish the radio bearer between the second base station and the user equipment UE.

Dependent claims

A radio bearer establishment method, comprising:

sending, by a first base station, first request information to a second base station, so that the second base station establishes a radio bearer between the second base station and user equipment UE according to the first request information, wherein the radio bearer comprises a signaling radio bearer SRB, or a data radio bearer DRB, or an SRB and a DRB;
and
receiving, by the first base station, first response information sent by the second base station, wherein the first response information comprises radio bearer establishment information that is used to indicate, to the first base station, a success or a failure to establish the radio bearer between the second base station and the user equipment UE;
wherein
the first request information comprises indication information that instructs the second base station to establish the radio bearer between the second base station and the UE;
or
the first request information comprises a type and/or a priority of the radio bear that the second base station is instructed to establish between the second base station and the UE;
or
the first request information comprises a type and/or a priority of the radio bear that the second base station is instructed to establish between the second base station and the UE, and information about a configuration parameter of the radio bearer.
