Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a cell selection and reselection method and apparatus, so as to resolve a problem existing in the prior art that repeated reception of data by using an existing cell selection and reselection method causes a waste of resources and an increase in power consumption. The cell selection method includes: measuring signal quality of a cell, and acquiring a coverage class offset value that is preconfigured by a network side for the cell; and selecting a target cell according to the signal quality of the cell and the acquired coverage class offset value of the cell.
Claims20
An apparatus, comprising a processor, configured to:
- measure signal quality of a cell, and acquire a coverage class offset value that is preconfigured by a network side for the cell;
- and
- select a target cell according to the signal quality of the cell that is measured by the acquiring unit and the coverage class offset value of the cell.
An apparatus, comprising a processor, configured to:
- measure signal quality of a camping cell in which user equipment is currently located and of neighboring cells of the camping cell, and acquire coverage class offset values that are preconfigured by a network side for the camping cell and the neighboring cells;
- and
- select a target cell from the neighboring cells according to the signal quality of the camping cell and the neighboring cells and the coverage class offset values of the camping cell and the neighboring cells.
A method, comprising:
- measuring signal quality of a cell, and acquiring a coverage class offset value that is preconfigured by a network side for each cell;
- and
- selecting a target cell according to the measured signal quality of the cell and the acquired coverage class offset value of each cell.
A method, comprising:
- measuring signal quality of a camping cell in which user equipment is currently located and of neighboring cells of the camping cell, and acquiring coverage class offset values that are preconfigured by a network side for the camping cell and the neighboring cells;
- and
- selecting a target cell from the neighboring cells according to the measured signal quality of the camping cell and the neighboring cells, and the acquired coverage class offset values of the camping cell and the neighboring cells.
