Abstract
A method for reporting location information of a user is disclosed, wherein location information of user equipment (UE) is reported during a handover of the UE to another serving cell, and includes: a source evolved Node Base (eNB) initiating a handover procedure; during the handover procedure, the source eNB sending location reporting information to a target eNB, the target eNB acquiring the location information of the UE based on the location reporting information and reporting it to a Mobility Management Entity (MME) corresponding to the target eNB. The source eNB may notify the target eNB based on a handover request of the UE, wherein the target eNB reports the location information after the UE is handed over to another serving cell, so that the target eNB can report the location information of the UE to the MME during the handover procedure of the serving cells.
