Abstract

The present invention provides a method for switching a working mode on a relay network, a base station, a relay node, and a communications system. A donor eNB (DeNB) sends an RN reconfiguration message to a relay node RN in frequency division duplex FDD mode, so that the RN switches from the FDD mode to a half-duplex frequency division duplex H-FDD mode. The DeNB receives an acknowledgment message sent by the RN in FDD mode. When the DeNB verifies, according to the RN reconfiguration message and the acknowledgement message, that the RN has already started to switch from the FDD mode to the H-FDD mode, the DeNB switches from the FDD mode to the H-FDD mode.
