In the early stage of Long Term Evolution (LTE) network deployment, coverage of a second generation mobile communication technology (2G) network and a third generation mobile communication technology (3G) network is far greater than that of the LTE network, and the coverage of the LTE network mostly adopts hot spot coverage, which causes the user terminal to frequently switch between the LTE network and the 2G network or the 3G network.
In the TS36.300 protocol, when the terminal is handed over between the LTE network and the 2G or 3G network, the S1 handover method is adopted. In an S1 handover mode during handover between an LTE network and a 2G or 3G network, a terminal needs to query capability information of the terminal in advance when the terminal is handed over from the LTE network to the 2G or 3G network, where the terminal capability includes a GSM EDGE radio access network-circuit switching (GERAN-CS) capability of the 2G and a GSM EDGE radio access network-packet switching (GERAN-PS) capability, or a Universal Terrestrial Radio Access (UTRA) capability of the 3G. In addition, when the terminal is handed over from the LTE network to the 2G network, the S1 handover types include a plurality of types, for example, a Packet Switched (PS) handover of Circuit Switched Fallback (CSFB), a Circuit Switched (CS) handover of Single Radio Voice Call Continuity (SRVCC), a PS and CS handover of SRVCC, and the like. For these S1 handover types, the requirements of the 2G network on the terminal capabilities are not the same, e.g. CS handover for SRVCC requires the terminal to have GERAN-CS capabilities, while PS handover for CSFB requires the terminal to have GERAN-PS capabilities.

While exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be embodied in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.
The first embodiment:
as shown in fig. 1, it is a flowchart of the steps of a method for network handover in a first embodiment of the present invention, and the method includes the following steps:
step 101, acquiring a switching type of a terminal between a current connection network and a target network.
In this step, the base station obtains the handover type of the terminal between the current connection network and the target network before the terminal is handed over from the current connection network to the target network. Specifically, the current connection network is a network before the terminal is switched, and the current connection network may be an LTE network; the target network is a network after the terminal is switched, and the target network may be a 2G network. Further, the handover types may include PS handover for CSFB, CS handover for SRVCC, and PS and CS handover for SRVCC.
And 102, acquiring the terminal capability of the target network corresponding to the switching type according to the switching type.
In this step, specifically, when the handover type of the terminal between the current connection network and the target network is obtained, the terminal capability of the target network corresponding to the handover type may be obtained according to the handover type.
For example, when the handover type is PS handover of CSFB, GERAN-PS capability of the target network corresponding to PS handover of CSFB may be acquired; when the switching type is CS switching of SRVCC, GERAN-CS capability of a target network corresponding to the CS switching of SRVCC can be obtained; when the switching type is PS and CS switching of SRVCC, GERAN-PS capability and GERAN-CS capability of a target network corresponding to PS and CS switching of SRVCC can be obtained.
And 103, switching the terminal from the current connection network to the target network according to the terminal capability of the target network.
In this step, specifically, when the base station switches the terminal from the current connection network to the target network according to the terminal capability of the target network, the base station may construct an S1 handover request message according to the terminal capability of the target network and transmit the S1 handover request message to a mobile management unit (MME), and then perform an S1 handover procedure for switching the terminal from the current connection network to the target network. For example, when the current connection network is the LTE network and the target network is the 2G network, the S1 handover procedure of the terminal switching from the LTE network to the 2G network is performed.
In this way, in this embodiment, by obtaining the handover type of the terminal between the current connection network and the target network, then obtaining the terminal capability of the target network corresponding to the handover type according to the handover type, and finally switching the terminal from the current connection network to the target network according to the terminal capability of the target network, the problems of reducing the success rate of querying the terminal capability and increasing the time delay for switching the LTE network to the 2G network due to querying all the terminal capabilities when performing S1 handover between the LTE network and the 2G network in the prior art are solved, air interface resources are saved, the success rate of querying the terminal capability is improved, the time delay for switching the LTE network to the 2G network is reduced, and the stability of handover and the user experience are improved.
Second embodiment:
as shown in fig. 2, it is a flowchart of the steps of a method for network handover in a second embodiment of the present invention, where the method includes the following steps:
step 201, receiving a measurement report sent by a terminal, and acquiring a handover target cell of a target network according to the measurement report.
In this step, specifically, the base station receives a measurement report sent by the terminal, and acquires a handover target cell of the target network according to the measurement report. Specifically, the handover target cell of the target network may be a 2G cell.

Specifically, when the handover type is acquired, the process proceeds to step 203, step 204, or step 205.
Step 203, when the switching type is PS switching of CSFB, obtaining GSM EDGE radio access network-packet switching GERAN-PS capability of the target network corresponding to PS switching of CSFB.
In this step, specifically, when the obtained handover type is PS handover of CSFB, GERAN-PS capability of the target network corresponding to the PS handover of CSFB may be obtained. Specifically, in a specific implementation, the base station may send a first terminal capability request message to the terminal; the first terminal capability request message carries a GERAN-PS identification field; then receiving first terminal capacity information reported by the terminal according to the first terminal capacity request message; the first terminal capability information carries GERAN-PS capability information of a target network; and finally, acquiring the GERAN-PS capability according to the first terminal capability information.
Of course, it should be noted herein that when the base station already stores all the capability information (GERAN-PS capability and GERAN-CS capability) of the target network of the terminal, the terminal capability of the target network corresponding to the handover type may not be acquired again according to the handover type, and at this time, the terminal may be directly handed over from the currently connected network to the target network.
And step 204, when the switching type is the CS switching of the SRVCC, acquiring the GSM EDGE radio access network-circuit switching GERAN-CS capability of the target network corresponding to the CS switching of the SRVCC.

Specifically, in a specific implementation, the base station may send a second terminal capability request message to the terminal; the second terminal capability request message carries a GERAN-CS identification field; then receiving second terminal capacity information reported by the terminal according to the second terminal capacity request message; the second terminal capability information carries GERAN-CS capability information of a target network; and finally, acquiring the GERAN-CS capability according to the second terminal capability information.
Step 205, when the switching type is PS and CS switching of SRVCC, GERAN-PS capability and GERAN-CS capability of the target network corresponding to PS and CS switching of SRVCC are obtained.
In this step, specifically, when the acquired handover type is PS and CS handover of SRVCC, GERAN-PS capability and GERAN-CS capability of the target network corresponding to the PS and CS handover of SRVCC may be acquired. Specifically, in a specific implementation, the base station may send a third terminal capability request message to the terminal; the third terminal capability request message carries GERAN-PS and GERAN-CS identification fields; then receiving third terminal capacity information reported by the terminal according to the third terminal capacity request message; the third terminal capability information carries GERAN-PS and GERAN-CS capability information of the target network; and finally, according to the third terminal capability information, acquiring the GERAN-PS capability and the GERAN-CS capability.
And step 206, switching the terminal from the current connection network to the target network according to the terminal capability of the target network.
In this step, specifically, when the base station switches the terminal from the current connection network to the target network according to the terminal capability of the target network, the base station may construct an S1 handover request message according to the first terminal capability information, the second terminal capability information, or the third terminal capability information reported by the terminal, send the S1 handover request message to the MME, and execute an S1 handover procedure for switching the terminal from the current connection network to the target network. For example, when the current connection network is the LTE network and the target network is the 2G network, the S1 handover procedure for handover of the terminal from the LTE network to the 2G network is performed.
In this way, in this embodiment, according to the obtained switching type of the terminal between the current connection network and the target network, the terminal capability of the corresponding target network is obtained, and finally, according to the terminal capability of the target network, the terminal is switched from the current connection network to the target network. In this way, in this embodiment, according to the obtained handover type, the terminal capability of the corresponding target network is obtained, the problems that, when S1 handover is performed between the LTE network and the 2G network in the prior art, the success rate of querying the terminal capability is reduced and the time delay for handover from the LTE network to the 2G network is increased due to querying of all terminal capabilities are solved, air interface resources are saved, the success rate of querying the terminal capability is improved, the time delay for handover from the LTE network to the 2G network is reduced, and the stability of handover and the user experience are improved.
