Abstract
Some of the present implementations provide a method for reporting measurement results by a user equipment (UE). The method receives, at the UE, a radio resource control (RRC) release message to transition to an RRC Inactive state. The method of some of the present implementations performs measurements while in the RRC Inactive state. The method then receives an RRC resume message from a base station, the RRC resume message comprising a request for the measurement results. After receiving the RRC resume message, the method transmits the measurement results to the base station in an RRC resume complete message.
Claims18
A method for reporting measurement results by a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
- receiving, at the UE, a radio resource control (RRC) release message to transition to an RRC Inactive state;
- performing measurements while in the RRC Inactive state;
- receiving an RRC resume message from a base station, the RRC resume message comprising a request for the measurement results;
- and
- transmitting the measurement results to the base station in an RRC resume complete message.
A user equipment (UE) comprising:
- one or more non-transitory computer-readable media having computer-executable instructions for reporting measurement results while the UE is in a radio resource control (RRC) Inactive state;
- and
- at least one processor coupled to the one or more non-transitory computer-readable media, and configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:
- receive, at the UE, an RRC release message to transition to an RRC Inactive state;
- perform measurements while in the RRC Inactive state;
- receive an RRC resume message from a base station, the RRC resume message comprising a request for the measurement results;
- and
- transmit the measurement results to the base station in an RRC resume complete message.
