DATA FORWARDING METHOD, EVOLVED NODEB AND LONG TERM EVOLUTION NETWORK

摘要

A data forwarding method applied to eNBs during handover without involving a core network is disclosed. The method includes the following Blocks. A target eNB receives user data packets delivered by a SGW after the SGW performs a path switching, and forwards the user data packets delivered by the SGW to a UE upon receiving a special data packet with an end marker from a source eNB. An eNB and a LTE network are further disclosed. In the present invention, the target eNB does not need to wait for a timer to expire to forward S1-interface data packets, thus improving the user data packet forwarding efficiency during an X2 handover.
