  • Publication number: 20140051448
    Abstract: In a method for accessing a legacy wireless network, a radio access network (RAN) node in the legacy wireless network receives an access message sent by a User Equipment (UE) attempting to access the legacy wireless network. The access message includes mobility management entity (MME) information identifying an MME accessed by the UE in an evolved network. The MME information is added by the UE from a temporary identity (ID) allocated by the MME to a first P-Temporary Mobile Station Identity (P-TMSI) in the access message. The RAN node selects a corresponding Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) in the legacy wireless network for the UE according to the first P-TMSI in the access message.

  • Publication number: 20140050141
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for controlling packet access, a network side device, a terminal device and a communication system. The method includes: generating an access trigger message, where the access trigger message carries a temporary mobile group identity TMGI allocated to a user equipment UE; and sending the access trigger message to packet trigger an access operation of the UE for the TMGI. In the embodiments of the present invention, the group identity TMGI already existing in an MBMS can be used as the group identity of packet triggering UE access, and the access trigger message carrying the TMGI can be correspondingly generated and sent so as to trigger an access operation of the UE belonging to the TMGI, thereby implementing the function of the packet triggering user access.

  • Patent number: 8483166
    Abstract: A method is provided for accessing a legacy network, such as a 2G/3G network, through a temporary ID of an evolved network. User Equipment (UE) adds Mobility Management Entity (MME) information for uniquely identifying an MME accessed by the UE on an evolved network to an access message sent to an old network when the UE accesses the legacy network through a temporary ID of the evolved network. The legacy network selects a corresponding Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) for the UE according to the access message. After the MME information for uniquely identifying an MME is added to the access message sent to the old network, the legacy network can determine and find the MME that is accessed by the UE in the evolved network without changing a Radio Network Controller (RNC) and an SGSN on the legacy network.
