Methods for implementing inter-system communications includes as follows: a serving base station selects a relay terminal, transmits a neighboring base station access request to the selected relay terminal; the relay terminal receives the neighboring base station access request, and accesses a neighboring base station; the relay terminal receives relay information, and communicates with the serving base station or the neighboring base station based on the relay information. Systems and apparatuses for implementing inter-system communications are also disclosed. With the methods, systems and apparatuses of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the probability of correct receipt of relay information at the neighboring base station may be improved.
