Abstract
The present invention defines an efficient measurement method for idle mode M2M/MTC device with low/no mobility in a mobile communication system. An example of the mobile communication system to which the present invention is application is 3GPP UMTS mobile communication system and 3GPP LTE/LTE-A mobile communication system as the next generation mobile communication system under discussion in 3GPP.
Claims20
A method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- receiving, from a base station, a control message including a time value associated with an operation for an idle mode;
- skipping the operation for the idle mode, in case that a time corresponding to the time value expires;
- and
- resuming the operation for the idle mode, in case that data to be transmitted occurs at the terminal,
- wherein the operation for the idle mode includes monitoring a paging message.
A method performed by a base station in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- receiving, from a terminal, information;
- and
- transmitting, to the terminal, a control message including a time value associated with an operation for an idle mode,
- wherein the time value indicates that the operation for the idle mode is skipped in case that a time corresponding to the time value expires,
- wherein the operation for the idle mode is resumed in case that data to be transmitted occurs at the terminal, and
- wherein the operation for the idle mode includes monitoring a paging message.
A terminal in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:
- a transceiver;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- receive, from a base station via the transceiver, a control message including on a time value associated with an operation for an idle mode,
- skip the operation for the idle mode, in case that a time corresponding to the time value expires, and
- resume the operation for the idle mode, in case that data to be transmitted occurs at the terminal,
- wherein the operation for the idle mode includes monitoring a paging message.
A base station in a wireless communication system, the base station comprising:
- a transceiver;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- receive, from a terminal via the transceiver, information, and
- transmit, to the terminal, a control message including a time value associated with an operation for an idle mode,
- wherein the time value indicates that the operation for the idle mode is skipped in case that a time corresponding to the time value expires,
- wherein the operation for the idle mode is resumed in case that data to be transmitted occurs at the terminal, and
- wherein the operation for the idle mode includes monitoring a paging message.
