Mobile communications system, gateway, method of controlling gateway, and computer readable medium therefor

摘要

A gateway communicating with a base station, includes a receiver that receives an incoming message including identification information of the base station and one or more parameters indicating an environment of the base station. The gateway also includes a memory that stores correspondence information including a cell identifier in association with at least one of the received identification information and the received one or more parameters. The gateway also includes a controller that determines the cell identifier, corresponding to a cell of the base station, based on the correspondence information and the incoming message, and generates an outgoing message, including the determined cell identifier, to be sent to a core network device. The gateway also includes a transmitter adapted to transmit the outgoing message.

主权项

1. A mobile communications system comprising:
a base station adapted to form one or more cells, and to communicate with a mobile station; a gateway adapted to communicate with the base station; and a core network device adapted to communicate with the gateway,
wherein the base station transmits a first message including: identification information of the base station; and one or more parameters indicating an environment of the base station,
wherein the gateway comprises:
a receiver adapted to receive the first message;a memory adapted to store correspondence information including:
a cell identifier in association with at least one of the identification information and the one or more parameters, the cell identifier being different from the identification information and the one or more parameters which is in association with the cell identifier itself;a controller adapted to determine the cell identifier, corresponding to a cell of the base station, based on the correspondence information and the first message, and to generate a second message, including the determined cell identifier; anda transmitter adapted to transmit the second message to the core network, and wherein the core network device receives the second message from the gateway.
