Method and network-side device for optimizing activation/deactivation of ISR
View Patent ↗The present application relates to mobile communication technical field, and a method for optimizing activation/deactivation Idle State signaling Reduction (ISR) and a network side device are disclosed. The method includes: during a process of updating User Element (UE) area, a first network entity, when receiving a context request message transmitted from a second entity, determines to activate or deactivate ISR, according to a mobile-reachable timer or an implicit detach timer corresponding to said UE, or operation states of the mobile-reachable timer and the implicit detach timer; and the first network entity transmits the determination result to the second network entity, said second network entity determines to instruct the UE to activate or deactivate the ISR according to the received determination result. The application optimizes the existing procedure for the activating/deactivating of the ISR, enables the ISR processing at the network side and the UE side to be consistent in height, and thus avoiding unnecessary signaling expense.
1. A method for optimizing activation of Idle State Signalling Reduction, ISR, comprising:
receiving, by a first network entity, a Context Request message transmitted from a second network entity and deciding to activate ISR in an area update procedure of the UE, wherein the first network entity belongs to a first network and the second network entity belongs to a second network;
transmitting, by the first network entity, a decision result to the second network entity, and the second network entity instructing the UE to activate ISR in response to the received decision result; and
restarting, by the first network entity, an implicit detach timer corresponding to the UE when an ISR activation acknowledge is returned from the second network entity.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the restarted implicit detach timer corresponding to the UE has a larger timer length than that of a deactivate ISR timer of the first network of the UE.
