The method for access includes: when a UE accesses a System Architecture Evolution (SAE) network, judging, by a network node, whether a Globally Unique Mobility Management Entity Identifier (GUMMEI) carried by the UE or a Mobility Management Entity Group Identity (MMEGI) in the GUMMEI is allocated or mapped by the SAE network; if the GUMMEI or MMEGI is allocated by the SAE network, selecting, by the network node, a Mobility Management Entity (MME) according to the GUMMEIA network device includes an identity attribute obtaining module and a network resource node allocation module. Therefore, the access of the UE is achieved. | 2020-09-17 |
20200296635 | Handover in Unlicensed Band - A wireless device receives a radio resource control message from a base station that indicates a handover from a first cell of the first base station to a second cell of a second base station. During the handover, a DCI from the second base station is received that indicates a random access channel occasion. The random access channel occasion is determined and used to transmit a preamble to the second base station. Once a response to the preamble is received, the wireless device transmits a message to the second base station to indicate a completion of the handover. | 2020-09-17 |
20200296636 | CELL HANDOVER METHOD AND APPARATUS - This application relates to the communications field, and provides a cell handover method and apparatus. The method is applied to a communications system. The system includes at least a source wireless gateway, a target wireless gateway, and a forwarding device. Both the source wireless gateway and the target wireless gateway are connected to the forwarding device by using a first interface, and the forwarding device is connected to an application server by using the first interface. The method includes: determining, by the source wireless gateway, the target wireless gateway for a terminal based on a measurement report, and sending, by the source wireless gateway, a handover instruction message to the terminal when receiving a handover request acknowledgment message sent by the target wireless gateway. | 2020-09-17 |
