ACCESS NETWORK DEVICE AND COMMUNICATION METHOD

摘要

The present invention provides an access network device and a communication method. The access network device includes: a receiver, configured to receive a call request sent by a calling user equipment, where the call request carries a user communication identity of a called user equipment; a processor, configured to generate a paging request based on the user communication identity before the receiver receives a paging message sent by a core network device, where the processor is further configured to set up a signaling connection to the called user equipment based on the paging request; and a sender, configured to send the paging request generated by the processor to the called user equipment. The device and the method that are provided in the present invention are used to solve a technical problem in the prior art that service experience of a user is affected due to a relatively long voice service setup delay.
