Method and apparatus for multi-sim operation during handover based on reporting on terminal state in wireless mobile communication system

Abstract

A method includes receiving from a base station a first RRCReconfiguration, transmitting to the base station a UEAssistanceInformation, starting the first timer after initiating transmission of UEAssistanceInformation, receiving from the base station a second RRCReconfiguration and starting the second timer before initiating random access procedure. The first RRCReconfiguration includes a configuration information related to terminal state transition, the configuration information related to terminal state transition includes an information for a first timer, the first timer is a timer related to terminal state transition. The UEAssistanceInformation includes an information related to terminal's state. The second RRCReconfiguration includes a ReconfigurationWithSync, the ReconfigurationWithSync includes an information for a second timer related to handover. The first timers stops if the second timer expires while the first timer is running. The second timers stops if the first timer expires while the second timer is running.
