A method and a device for establishing an Evolved Packet System (EPS) bearer, where the method includes establishing, by a first base station to which a user equipment (UE) belongs, a first EPS bearer based on a first component carrier (CC) for the UE, wherein the first EPS bearer is an EPS bearer between the first base station and the UE; and instructing, by the first base station, a second base station to establish a second EPS bearer based on a second CC for the UE, wherein the second EPS bearer is an EPS bearer between the second base station and the UE. The present disclosure enables the UE to aggregate carriers of different frequency ranges from the first base station to which the UE belongs and the second base station to which the UE belongs to transmit data, thus improving the throughput of the data transmitted by the UE.

Method for establishing evolved packet system bearer and base station

Embodiments of the present invention relate to an RRC connection method and a serving node. In the embodiments, an RRC connection is established between an anchor node and a UE. Therefore, when a serving node of the UE is switched, a connection between an MME and the anchor node does not change. When the MME needs to send a paging message, the MME does not need to send the paging message to all base stations in a TA area that corresponds to the paging message, thereby effectively reducing signaling load of a core network.

Radio resource control RRC connection method and apparatus and RRC reconnection method and apparatus

The present disclosure relates to a connection control apparatus and method. The method includes: receiving a link configuration request message sent by a second terminal; sending a bearer configuration request message to a network-side device according to the link configuration request message; receiving a bearer configuration complete message that is sent by the network-side device according to the bearer configuration request message; establishing a mapping relationship between the service bearer and the second terminal; and sending a link configuration complete message to the second terminal after the mapping relationship is established, so that the second terminal performs data transmission with the network-side device over the service bearer by using the first terminal.

Connection control apparatus and method

A method and a device for establishing an evolved packet system EPS bearer are disclosed. The method includes establishing, by a first base station to which UE belongs, a first EPS bearer based on a first CC for the UE, wherein the first EPS bearer is an EPS bearer between the first base station and the UE; and instructing, by the first base station, a second base station to establish a second EPS bearer based on a second CC for the UE, wherein the second EPS bearer is an EPS bearer between the second base station and the UE. The present invention enables the UE to aggregate carriers of different frequency ranges from the first base station to which the UE belongs and the second base station to which the UE belongs to transmit data, thus improving the throughput of the data transmitted by the UE.
