US 2020/0028602 A1 · METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING DRIVE TEST IN MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a communication technique for converging IoT technology with a 5G communication system for supporting a higher data transfer rate beyond a 4G system, and a system therefor. The present disclosure can be applied to intelligent services (e.g., smart homes, smart buildings, smart cities, smart or connected cars, health care, digital education, retail business, and services associated with security and safety) on the basis of 5G communication technology and IoT-related technology. A method for determining signal reception quality in a mobile communication system according to another embodiment of the present specification comprises the steps of: acquiring measurement information related to a received signal; acquiring map information corresponding to a region where the signal is received; and determining signal reception quality at a predicted reception point on the basis of the measurement information and the map information.
