Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method, a system and a device for reporting movement information. The method includes steps of determining, by the UE, that the UE is being or has been switched from an idle state into a connection state; and reporting, by the UE, movement information of the UE to a network-side device.

Claims (44)

1. A method for reporting movement information, comprising steps of:

determining, by a User Equipment (UE), that the UE is being or has been switched from an idle state into a connection state; and

reporting, by the UE, movement information of the UE to a network-side device,

wherein the movement information comprises first movement information and/or second movement information, the first movement information is information representing a movement state of the UE and determined according to mobility state estimation (MSE) which is performed on the UE, and the second movement information is historical information about cell reselection of the UE.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein

the movement information comprises the first movement information and the second movement information, and

the step of reporting, by the UE, the movement information of the UE to the network-side device comprises:

reporting, by the UE, the first movement information to the network-side device; and

reporting, by the UE, the second movement information to the network-side device when it is determined that the network-side device needs to receive the second movement information, or

the movement information comprises the second movement information, and

the step of reporting, by the UE, the movement information of the UE to the network-side device comprises:

reporting, by the UE, an empty message to the network-side device; and

reporting, by the UE, the second movement information to the network-side device when it is determined that the network-side device needs to receive the second movement information.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein

when configuration information representing that the second movement information needs to be reported is received by the UE from the network-side device, the UE determines that the network-side device needs to receive the second movement information, and

when configuration information representing that the second movement information does not need to be reported is received by the UE from the network-side device or no configuration information is received from the network-side device within a predetermined time period after the first movement information has been reported, the UE determines that the network-side device does not need to receive the second movement information.

4. The method according to claim 2 , wherein prior to determining by the UE that the network-side device needs to receive the second movement information, the method further comprises reporting, by the UE, information representing whether or not there is the second movement information to the network-side device.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein prior to reporting by the UE the first movement information to the network-side device, the method further comprises receiving, by the UE, configuration information representing that the first movement information needs to be reported from the network-side device.

6. A method for receiving movement information, comprising steps of:

determining, by a network-side device, that a User Equipment (UE) is being or has been switched from an idle state into a connection state; and

receiving, by the network-side device, movement information reported by the UE,

wherein the movement information comprises first movement information and/or second movement information, the first movement information is information representing a movement state of the UE and determined according to mobility state estimation (MSE) which is performed on the UE, and the second movement information is historical information about cell reselection of the UE.

7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the movement information comprises the first movement information and the second movement information, and

the step of receiving, by the network-side device, the movement information reported by the UE comprises:

receiving, by the network-side device, the first movement information reported by the UE;

transmitting, by the network-side device, configuration information representing that the second movement information needs to be reported to the UE when it is determined that the network-side device needs to receive the second movement information; and

receiving, by the network-side device, the second movement information reported by the UE.

8. The method according to claim 7 , further comprising:

transmitting, by the network-side device, configuration information representing that the second movement information does not need to be reported to the UE, or not performing configuration on the UE, when it is determined that the network-side device does not need to receive the second movement information.

9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein prior to receiving by the network-side device the first movement information reported by the UE, the method further comprises transmitting, by the network-side device, the configuration information representing that the first movement information needs to be reported to the UE when it is determined that the network-side device needs to receive the first movement information.

10. The method according to claim 7 , wherein prior to receiving by the network-side device the first movement information reported by the UE, the method further comprises transmitting, by the network-side device, the configuration information representing that the first movement information needs to be reported to the UE when it is determined that the network-side device needs to receive the first movement information.

11. A User Equipment (UE), comprising a processor, a memory and a transceiver, wherein the memory is configured to store one or more executable programs for configuring the processor, and

the processor is configured with the one or more executable programs, and configured to determine that the UE is being or has been switched from an idle state into a connection state, and report movement information of the UE to a network-side device via the transceiver,

wherein the movement information comprises first movement information and/or second movement information, and

the first movement information is information representing a movement state of the UE and determined according to mobility state estimation (MSE) which is performed on the UE and the second movement information is historical information about cell reselection of the UE.

12. The UE according to claim 11 , wherein the movement information comprises the first movement information and the second movement information, and

the processor is configured to report the first movement information to the network-side device via the transceiver, and report the second movement information to the network-side device via the transceiver when it is determined that the network-side device needs to receive the second movement information, or,

the movement information comprises the second movement information, and

the processor is configured to report an empty message to the network-side device via the transceiver, and report the second movement information to the network-side device when it is determined that the network-side device needs to receive the second movement information.

13. The UE according to claim 12 , wherein

when configuration information representing that the second movement information needs to be reported is received from the network-side device, the processor determines that the network-side device needs to receive the second movement information, and

when configuration information representing that the second movement information does not need to be reported is received from the network-side device or no configuration information is received from the network-side device within a predetermined time period after the first movement information has been reported, the processor determines that the network-side device does not need to receive the second movement information.

14. The UE according to claim 12 , wherein the processor is further configured to, prior to determining that the network-side device needs to receive the second movement information, report information representing whether or not there is the second movement information of the UE to the network-side device via the transceiver.

15. The UE according to claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured to, when configuration information representing that the first movement information needs to be reported is received from the network-side device, report the first movement information to the network-side device via the transceiver.
