Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a communication system, a base station, a host node, and a communication method in order to address one or more of the above-described problems. A communication system according to the present invention is a communication system including: a base station (10) and a host node (40) that communicates with the base station (10). The base station (10) included in the communication system transmits to the host node (40) setting information indicating whether or not a paging message transmitted from the host node (40) can be transmitted to other base stations, and the host node (40) receives the setting information from the base station (10).
Claims3
A communication system comprising a base station and a host node that communicates with the base station, wherein
- the base station transmits to the host node a first message which includes base station list information for paging and information which identifies whether the base station can send a X2 paging message to another base station or not, and
- the host node transmits, to the base station, a paging message and an instruction related to a X2 paging message,
- wherein the base station transmits the X2 paging message to another base station based on the instruction,
- wherein the paging message is transmitted from the host node based on the base station list information, and
- wherein the base station list information is a list of neighbor base stations to which the host node transmits the paging message.
A method for a base station in a communication system which comprises a host node, the method comprising:
- transmitting to the host node a first message which includes base station list information for paging and information which identifies whether the base station can send a X2 paging message to another base station or not,
- receiving a paging message and an instruction related to a X2 paging message from the host node, and
- transmitting the X2 paging message to another base station based on the instruction,
- wherein the paging message is transmitted from the host node based on the base station list information, and
- wherein the base station list information is a list of neighbor base stations to which the host node transmits the paging message.
A method for a host node in a communication system which comprises a base station, the method comprising:
- receiving from the base station a first message which includes base station list information for paging and information which identifies whether the base station can send a X2 paging message to another base station or not, and
- transmitting, to the base station, a paging message and an instruction related to a X2 paging message,
- wherein the X2 paging message is transmitted from the base station to another base station based on the instruction,
- wherein the paging message is transmitted from the host node based on the base station list information, and
- wherein the base station list information is a list of neighbor base stations to which the host node transmits the paging message.
