A mobile station in a wireless communication network. The mobile station includes a radio communication that transmits an access request message to a base station via a first communication resource, and receives a timing adjustment in response to the access request message from the base station. The mobile station also includes an adjustment value storage unit that stores the timing adjustment, and a control unit that adjusts access timing corresponding to a second communication resource based on the timing adjustment value stored in the adjustment value storage unit. The radio communication unit then communicates with the base station via the first communication resource and the second communication resource.

Systems and methods for enabling a handover decision are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed comprising configuring a UE with a first offset and a second offset, the second offset greater than the first offset; instructing the UE to enter a handover decision state upon receiving a first measurement report from a UE indicating that a neighbor cell has a better received signal strength than the serving cell by the first offset; instructing the UE to send periodic measurement reports with signal strength of the serving cell and the neighbor cell; delaying handover decision by remaining in the handover decision state until receiving a second measurement report from the UE; and instructing the UE to hand over to the neighbor cell when the neighbor cell has a better received signal strength than the serving cell than the second offset.

A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication network determines a snapshot value of a serving link signal received quality while the UE is permitted to refrain from performing neighbor link measurements. Responsive to detecting, while the UE is permitted to refrain from performing neighbor link measurements, that signal received quality of a serving link has dropped by at least a threshold amount below the snapshot value, the UE performs a neighbor link measurement.

Implementations of the present application disclose a method for paging, an access network device and a terminal device. The method includes: an access network device receives movement information of a terminal device sent by the terminal device; the access network device determines, according to the movement information, a target paging area where the access network device initiates paging to the terminal device; and the access network device sends the target paging area to the terminal device. The method, the access network device and the terminal device according to the implementations of the present application are beneficial for the access network device to configure a reasonable paging area, thereby reducing signaling overhead.

Disclosed are a handover method for between base stations, and a device, system and storage medium. The base station sends a handover request to a target base station, where the handover request carries type information of a core network used for indicating the type of core network which the UE to be handed over between base stations needs to access. The base station receives a handover response sent from the target base station, where the handover response indicates whether the target base station allows the UE to be handed over to the target base station, and the handover response is sent by the target base station according to the type information of a core network and the type of at least one core network connected to the target base station.
