Title:
BASE STATION APPARATUS, AND INTER-BASE-STATION GATEWAY APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/151653
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A base station apparatus (1) is configured to transmit a first information element to an inter-base-station gateway (3). The first information element explicitly or implicitly indicates whether a relay process is needed in which the inter-base-station gateway (3) relays a data packet addressed to a wireless terminal or from a wireless terminal between the base station apparatus (1) and another base station (2). This can contribute to, for example, making it possible for the base station or the inter-base-station gateway to select whether the relay process is to be performed by the inter-base-station gateway in the case of an inter-base-station handover.
