Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil de communication capables de réduire le retard d'un transfert basé sur une interface NG, ainsi que d'augmenter le taux de réussite du transfert. Le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes : un dispositif de réseau d'accès cible reçoit un message de demande de transfert d'un dispositif de réseau central, le message de demande de transfert étant utilisé pour demander le transfert d'un dispositif terminal vers une première cellule du dispositif de réseau d'accès cible ; le dispositif de réseau d'accès cible détermine que le dispositif terminal satisfait au moins l'une des conditions suivantes : un espacement de sous-porteuse pris en charge par le dispositif terminal est différent d'un espacement de sous-porteuse de la première cellule, et une bande passante de canal prise en charge par le dispositif terminal est supérieure à une bande passante de porteuse de la première cellule ; le dispositif de réseau d'accès cible envoie un message de défaillance de transfert au dispositif de réseau central, le message de défaillance de transfert servant à indiquer que le dispositif de réseau d'accès cible refuse le message de demande de transfert ; le message de défaillance de transfert comportant des informations de cellule ; les informations de cellule comprenant une configuration de porteuse de la première cellule ; la configuration de porteuse comprenant au moins l'une des informations suivantes : l'espacement de sous-porteuse et la bande passante de porteuse.
