Embodiments of the present application provide a method for a handover without a default bearer. A first network device sends a relocation request to a second network device. The second network device establishes a connection to a third network device indicated by the relocation request, and sends a response to the first network device and indicates that data is to be sent by using a signaling plane. Then the first network device instructs a source network device to forward the data to a target network device according to a forwarding mode indicated by a handover command. Alternatively, after the second network device establishes the connection to the third network device indicated by the relocation request, the third network device caches data, and after a handover of user equipment is completed, the third network device sends the cached data to the second network device.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a communication method. The communication method includes: performing, by a terminal, a handover from a source base station to a target base station via an interface between the source base station and the target base station, obtaining, by the target base station, a first security capability, and sending, by the target base station, the first security capability to another base station, to establish dual connections. The source base station does not support the first security capability, and the target base station, the another base station, and a core-network network element support the first security capability. The target base station obtains the first security capability, so that the terminal can establish the dual connections to the target base station and the another base station.

A more efficient network can be achieved by leveraging an adaptive dejitter buffer. The dejitter buffer can be dynamically adjusted based off a network data analysis. A communication handover can be adjusted or shifted based on voice inactivity data related to a forecasted punctuation. The dejitter buffer memory/depth of a mobile device can also be adjusted in accordance with receiving a delay interruption length associated with another mobile device. Thereafter, the dejitter buffer memory can be filled with voice packet data to decrease a packet delay variation at the mobile device.

A system is proposed to provide handover in a mobile telecommunications environment, particularly applicable to 3GPP networks, in which a user device, such as a mobile telephone provides a buffer status report to the target base station during a handover procedure. The target base station uses this status report to allocate appropriate resources for uplink data to be transmitted from the user device to the target base station.

A method and apparatus for supporting a random access channel (RACH)-less mobility with pre-allocated beams in a wireless communication system is provided. A user equipment (UE) receives a mobility command message which includes information on a pre-allocated UL resource for UL transmission with pre-allocated beams, synchronizes to a target cell, and performs the UL transmission to the target cell via the pre-allocated beams based on the pre-allocated UL resource for UL transmission to transmit a mobility complete message via a UL grant. If the UL transmission fails, the UE may perform RACH procedure.

A base station in a master cell group configured to establish a bearer to a mobile station together with a base station in a secondary cell group for communication includes a data transfer instruction unit configured to transmit to the base station in the secondary cell group an instruction on whether to transfer downlink data in the base station in the secondary cell group to the base station in the master cell group upon deletion or modification of the secondary cell group or upon deletion of the bearer in the secondary cell group; a reception unit configured to receive the downlink data transferred from the base station in the secondary cell group according to the instruction; and a transmission unit configured to transmit the received downlink data to the mobile station.

The present invention provides an apparatus, a system, and a method for preventing TCP connection interruption. The apparatus determines that user equipment UE needs cell handover; and the apparatus sends a first instruction message to a server, where the first instruction message is used to instruct the server to stop sending downlink data to the proxy device, and sends cached downlink data to the UE. Therefore, the following problem is avoided: After UE is disconnected from a source cell and is connected to a new cell, because the UE does not receive partial downlink data cached by a TCP proxy or because partial cached data is lost, the UE initiates retransmission to a server, but the server does not retransmit an acknowledged packet according to a TCP protocol, causing TCP connection interruption and service interruption.
