Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and a system for implementing smoothing of signaling traffic, and a home location register. The method includes: when a link between an HLR and an exchange device is congested or the HLR is overloaded, receiving, by the HLR, a location update request message of a user equipment UE sent by the exchange device, and returning a location update response message to the exchange device, so as to inform the exchange device that the location update of the UE is successful, where the HLR does not send user data corresponding to the UE to the exchange device; and when the link between the HLR and the exchange device is normal, the load of the HLR is normal, or the UE performs a service, sending, by the HLR, the user data corresponding to the UE to the exchange device.
