Radio terminal, radio communication system, and radio communication method
A communication unit of a radio terminal performs radio measurement of a base station and monitoring of a paging signal within a periodic duration. A controller controls the communication unit so as to perform filtering of the radio measurement within the duration with intervals less than half of the duration.
1. A radio terminal that performs radio communication with a base station, comprising:
a communication unit configured to perform radio measurement and monitoring of a paging signal of the base station; and
a control unit configured to enable the communication unit to configure first duration and second duration, to receive information related to the first duration and the second duration by Non-Access Stratum (NAS) message from the base station, and to perform the radio measurement and the monitoring during the first duration but not to perform the radio measurement and the monitoring during the second duration following the first duration, wherein
the control unit is further configured to control, following the first and second duration, radio measurement and monitoring and transmitting uplink data originated by the radio terminal during the second duration.
2. The radio terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the control unit is further configured to receive time information regarding the first duration and the second duration by Non-Access Stratum (NAS) Attach Accept.
3. A radio communication system, comprising:
a radio terminal; and
a base station that performs radio communication with the radio terminal, wherein
the radio terminal includes:
a communication unit configured to perform radio measurement and monitoring of a paging signal of the base station; and
a control unit configured to enable the communication unit to configure first duration and second duration, to receive information related to the first duration and the second duration by Non-Access Stratum (NAS) message from the base station, and to perform the radio measurement and the monitoring during the first duration but not to perform the radio measurement and the monitoring during the second duration following the first duration; wherein
the control unit is further configured to control radio measurement and monitoring following the first and second duration and transmitting uplink data originated by the radio terminal during the second duration.
4. A base station that performs radio communication with a radio terminal that configures first duration and second duration following the first duration, the base station comprising:
a communication unit configured to transmit information related to the first duration and the second duration by Non-Access Stratum (NAS) message to the radio terminal, wherein
the first duration is duration in which the radio terminal controls communication to perform radio measurement and monitoring of a paging signal of the base station;
the second duration is duration in which the radio terminal is able to control the communication not to perform the radio measurement and the monitoring, the second duration ends in order for the radio terminal to control, following the first and second duration, radio measurement and monitoring and transmitting uplink data originated by the radio terminal during the second duration.
5. A radio communication method for a radio terminal that performs radio communication with a base station, comprising:
performing radio measurement and monitoring of a paging signal of the base station;
configuring first duration and second duration, receiving information related to the first duration and the second duration by Non-Access Stratum (NAS) message from the base station, wherein
the radio measurement and monitoring are performed during the first duration and the radio measurement and monitoring are not performed during the second duration following the first duration; and
further controlling, following the first and second duration, radio measurement and monitoring and transmitting uplink data originated by the radio terminal during the second duration.
