METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FACILITATING MOBILITY IN A COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK
摘要
Embodiments of the present disclosure propose a method and an apparatus for facilitating mobility in an ultra-dense network, e.g. mmW network. Particularly, there is provided a method at a network node for facilitating mobility in a communications network. The method comprises transmitting duplicates of data received from an upper level network node and directed to a terminal device served by a first lower level network node to the first lower level network node and a second lower level network node for buffering. The method also comprises receiving a status report from the first lower level network node indicating that the data is successfully received at the terminal device. The method further comprises generating a data discarding command according to the status report and signaling the data discarding command to the second lower level network node so that the duplicate of the data buffered at the second lower level network node is discarded according to the data discarding command.
