Base station, management apparatus and connection method
First Claim
1. A base station comprising:
- a transceiver; and
a processor configured to;
in response to receiving a connection request from a user equipment, cause the transceiver to transmit a message to a first management apparatus,wherein the message includes an identifier of the user equipment assigned by the base station, andwherein the base station is configured to perform a connection operation on the user equipment; and
in response to receiving a reroute message to indicate a reroute from the first management apparatus to a second management apparatus, cause the transceiver to transmit Non Access Stratum (NAS) information in the reroute message to the second management apparatus,wherein the identifier of the user equipment assigned by the base station is configured in the reroute message without provision of an identifier of the user equipment assigned by the first management apparatus,wherein the reroute message includes instructions for the base station to reroute the user equipment from the first management apparatus to the second management apparatus, which is selected by the first management apparatus,wherein the first management apparatus has a default core network in a Dedicated Core Network (DECOR), andwherein the second management apparatus has a Machine-to-Machine (M2M) dedicated core network in the DECOR.

Abstract
A base station includes a transceiver and a processor. The processor is configured to: in response to receiving a connection request from user equipment, causes a transceiver to transmit a message to a first management apparatus; and in response to receiving a reroute message to indicate a reroute from a first management apparatus to a second management apparatus, causes the transceiver to transmit Non Access Stratum (NAS) information in the reroute message to the second management apparatus. The message includes an identifier of the user equipment assigned by the base station. The base station is configured to perform a connection operation on the user equipment. The identifier of the user equipment assigned by the base station is configured in the reroute message without provision of an identifier of the user equipment assigned by the first management apparatus.

5. A management apparatus comprising:
-
a transceiver; and a processor configured to; in response to receiving a connection request of a user equipment from a base station, determine a type of the user equipment; perform a reroute operation to accommodate the user equipment in another management apparatus corresponding to the type of the user equipment; and cause a transceiver to transmit a reroute message to the base station, wherein the reroute message includes Non Access Stratum (NAS) information for connecting to the other management apparatus, wherein an identifier of the user equipment assigned by the base station is configured in the reroute message without provision of an identifier of the user equipment assigned by the management apparatus, wherein the reroute message includes instructions for the base station to reroute the user equipment from the management apparatus to the other management apparatus, which is selected by the management apparatus, wherein the management apparatus has a default core network in a Dedicated Core Network (DECOR), and wherein the other management apparatus has a Machine-to-Machine (M2M) dedicated core network in the DECOR. - View Dependent Claims (6)

7. A connection method for connecting a user equipment to a core network, the method comprising:
-
receiving, by a base station, a connection request from the user equipment; selecting, by the base station, a first management apparatus to accommodate the user equipment based on the received connection request; transmitting, by the base station, the connection request for the user equipment to the first management apparatus; determining, by the first management apparatus, a type of the user equipment; and performing, by the first management apparatus, a reroute operation to accommodate the user equipment in a second management apparatus, wherein the second management apparatus corresponds to the type of the user equipment, wherein performing the reroute operation includes transmitting a reroute message to the base station, wherein the reroute message includes Non Access Stratum (NAS) information for connecting to the second management apparatus, and wherein an identifier of the user equipment assigned by the base station is configured in the reroute message without provision of an identifier of the user equipment assigned by the first management apparatus, wherein the reroute message includes instructions for the base station to reroute the user equipment from the first management apparatus to the second management apparatus, which is selected by the first management apparatus, wherein the first management apparatus has a default core network in a Dedicated Core Network (DECOR), and wherein the second management apparatus has a Machine-to-Machine (M2M) dedicated core network in the DECOR.
