Problems solved by technology

[0026] From the above method, it can be seen that the process of handing over the HNB to the macro cell in the existing HNB architecture will involve the media update of the remote IMS, because the SCC AS belongs to the home network element of UE-A rather than the visited network element, and UE-B is far away, so it takes a long time to update UE-B's IMS media, and the time-consuming time for UE-B's IMS media update will cause UE-A to hand over to the target MSC. , thus increasing the possibility of handover failure and call drop

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a system for keeping conversation of a terminal switched from a family base station into a macro cellular system. The terminal carries out IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) conversation with a remote device through an HNB (Home Node B) system, the connection of the conversation comprises an IMS media connection M1 between the HNB and the remote device; when the terminal needs to be switched into the micro cellular system, the HNB establishes a connection M2 with an IWF (Internet Watch Foundation) in the HNB system and initiates the switching from a target MSC (Mobile Switching Center) in a CS core network to the micro cellular system through the IWF, the terminal is switched from the family base station into the macro cellular system and establishes a circuit switching connection M3 with the target MSC; and after the switching is finished, an HNB or HNB gateway connects the IMS media connection M1 with the connection M2 to form an access for conversation of the terminal and the remote device through the circuit switching connection M3, the connection M2 and the IMS media connection M1, which can reduce the time of switching the terminal from the family base station into the macro cellular system and ensure that the media stream interruption time is short.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication, in particular to a method and system for maintaining a session when a user terminal under a home base station is handed over to a macro cellular system. Background technique [0002] Home NodeB (HNB: Home NodeB) is a micro-cell access method proposed by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), which is deployed in buildings and other places where macro-cell signals are difficult to reach. cover. [0003] In the HNB architecture, HNB accesses 2G / 3G circuit switching (CS: Circuit Switch) network, 2G / 3G packet switching (PS: Packet Switch) network and IP (Internet Protocol, IP for short) multimedia subsystem (IP Multimedia Core Network Subsystem, IMS for short), so as to provide various business services for users, and the HNB and HNB-GW can be called the HNB subsystem. The main functional entity of the 2G / 3G network is a Mobile Switch Center Server (Mobile Switch Center Server, wherein ...
