Abstract: Various examples provide a method of caching service data in LTE networks. A base station parses a data request received from a UE to obtain an identification of requested contents, judges whether the requested contents are cached in the base station, sends the contents to the UE in response to a determination that the requested contents are cached in the base station. In response to a determination that the requested contents are not cached in the base station, the base station judges whether the requested contents are cached in an adjacent base station, and obtains the contents from the adjacent base station and returns the contents to the UE in response to a determination that the requested contents are cached in the adjacent base station. In response to a determination that the requested contents are not cached in adjacent base stations, the base station forwards the data request to an SGW, and returns contents obtained from the SGW to the UE.
