Abstract
A handover method, including sending, by a source base station to a source core network device in a process of handing user equipment (UE) over from the source base station to a target base station, a handover required message. The message comprises identification information of a target core network device, and the identification information of the target core network device instructs the source core network device to perform a core network relocation process with the target core network device. The source base station is connected to the source core network device, and the target base station is connected to both the source core network device and the target core network device.
