Abstract
A system is disclosed in which a base station receives, from a core network node (e.g. a mobility management entity), a resume identifier associated with a communication device located within a cell of the base station. The base station retrieves, based on the received resume identifier, a user equipment (UE) context associated with the communication device, for use in resumption of a suspended communication connection (e.g. a radio resource control connection) by the communication device.
