Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the field of communications technologies, and provide a determining method and device, to resolve a problem in the related art that user equipment (UE) fails to process a UE connection failure in a dual-connectivity moving process. The method includes determining, when a first timer expires, that a dual-connectivity moving process of a terminal device fails.
Claims17
A determining method, performed by a terminal device, the method comprising:
- determining, when a first timer expires, that a dual-connectivity moving process of the terminal device fails, wherein the dual-connectivity moving process comprises at least one of the following:
- a handover process or a Secondary Cell Group (SCG) change process;
- the handover process comprises at least one of the following:
- a first process, a second process, or a third process;
- and the SCG change process comprises at least one of the following:
- the first process, a fourth process, or a fifth process, and
- the first process is a connection process in which the terminal device establishes connections to a source cell and a target cell at a time;
- the second process is a change process in which the target cell is changed to a Master Cell Group (MCG);
- the third process is a change process in which the source cell is changed to an SCG or the source cell is released;
- the fourth process is a change process in which the target cell is changed to an SCG;
- and the fifth process is a change process in which the source cell is released,
- wherein the determining method further comprises:
- starting the first timer according to a first predetermined condition,
- wherein the first predetermined condition comprises any one of the following:
- the starting is performed when first configuration information is received, the starting is performed when the first configuration information is executed, the starting is performed when second configuration information is received, and the starting is performed when the second configuration information is executed;
- the first configuration information is applied to the first process;
- and the second configuration information is applied to at least one of the following:
- the second process, the third process, the fourth process, or the fifth process.
A terminal device, comprising a processor, a memory, and a computer program that is stored in the memory and executable by the processor, wherein the computer program, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to:
- determine, when a first timer expires, that a dual-connectivity moving process of the terminal device fails, wherein the dual-connectivity moving process comprises at least one of the following:
- a handover process or a Secondary Cell Group (SCG) change process;
- the handover process comprises at least one of the following:
- a first process, a second process, or a third process;
- and the SCG change process comprises at least one of the following:
- the first process, a fourth process, or a fifth process, and
- the first process is a connection process in which the terminal device establishes connections to a source cell and a target cell at a time;
- the second process is a change process in which the target cell is changed to a Master Cell Group (MCG);
- the third process is a change process in which the source cell is changed to an SCG or the source cell is released;
- the fourth process is a change process in which the target cell is changed to an SCG;
- and the fifth process is a change process in which the source cell is released,
- wherein the computer program, when executed by the processor, further causes the processor to:
- start the first timer according to a first predetermined condition,
- wherein the first predetermined condition comprises any one of the following:
- the starting is performed when first configuration information is received, the starting is performed when the first configuration information is executed, the starting is performed when second configuration information is received, and the starting is performed when the second configuration information is executed;
- the first configuration information is applied to the first process;
- and the second configuration information is applied to at least one of the following:
- the second process, the third process, the fourth process, or the fifth process.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, storing a computer program that, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to:
- determine, when a first timer expires, that a dual-connectivity moving process of a terminal device fails, wherein the dual-connectivity moving process comprises at least one of the following:
- a handover process or a Secondary Cell Group (SCG) change process;
- the handover process comprises at least one of the following:
- a first process, a second process, or a third process;
- and the SCG change process comprises at least one of the following:
- the first process, a fourth process, or a fifth process, and
- the first process is a connection process in which the terminal device establishes connections to a source cell and a target cell at a time;
- the second process is a change process in which the target cell is changed to a Master Cell Group (MCG);
- the third process is a change process in which the source cell is changed to an SCG or the source cell is released;
- the fourth process is a change process in which the target cell is changed to an SCG;
- and the fifth process is a change process in which the source cell is released,
- wherein the computer program, when executed by the processor, further causes the processor to:
- start the first timer according to a first predetermined condition,
- wherein the first predetermined condition comprises any one of the following:
- the starting is performed when first configuration information is received, the starting is performed when the first configuration information is executed, the starting is performed when second configuration information is received, and the starting is performed when the second configuration information is executed;
- the first configuration information is applied to the first process;
- and the second configuration information is applied to at least one of the following:
- the second process, the third process, the fourth process, or the fifth process.
