Abstract

A radio terminal, which has a function to collect and report measurement information designated by a radio network, comprises: means for receiving collection/reporting control information related to the radio terminal's execution of at least one of the collection of measurement information and the reporting of the measurement information to the radio network; and control means for executing, based on the collection/reporting control information, at least one of the collection and the reporting if execution determination information, which is related to at least one of the collection of the measurement information and the reporting of the measurement information to be executed by the local terminal, satisfies a given determination criterion.

Claims (25)

1. A radio terminal comprising:

a receiver configured to receive, from a radio network, configuration information for measurement logging, the configuration information including a PLMN-ID (Public Land Mobile Network Identity);

a processor configured to perform logging of measurement results when a first condition related to the PLMN-ID included in the configuration information is satisfied; and

a transmitter configured to transmit, to the radio network, a report of the logged measurement results when the first condition related to the PLMN-ID included in the configuration information is satisfied, and

wherein the first condition is whether the PLMN-ID included in the configuration information is a PLMN-ID related to the radio terminal.

2. The radio terminal according to claim 1 ,

wherein the PLMN-ID related to the radio terminal is a PLMN-ID for the radio terminal.

3. The radio terminal according to claim 1 ,

wherein the configuration information further includes area information, the area information including at least one of a Cell-ID and a location area to which the radio terminal belongs, and wherein the processor is further configured to perform logging of measurement results when both of the first condition related to the PLMN-ID included in the configuration message and a second condition related to the area information are satisfied.

4. A method for a radio terminal, the method comprising:

receiving, from a radio network, configuration information for measurement logging, the configuration information including a PLMN-ID (Public Land Mobile Network Identity);

performing logging of measurement results when a first condition related to the PLMN-ID included in the configuration information is satisfied; and

transmitting, to the radio network, a report of the logged measurement results when the first condition related to the PLMN-ID included in the configuration information is satisfied, and wherein the first condition is whether the PLMN-ID included in the configuration information is a PLMN-ID related to the radio terminal.

5. The method according to claim 4 ,

wherein the PLMN-ID related to the radio terminal is a PLMN-ID for the radio terminal.

6. The method according to claim 4 ,

wherein the configuration information further includes area information, the area information including at least one of a Cell-ID and a location area to which the radio terminal belongs, and wherein the processor is further configured to perform logging of measurement results when both of the first condition related to the PLMN-ID included in the configuration message and a second condition related to the area information are satisfied.

7. A method for a radio network, the method comprising:

transmitting, to a radio terminal, configuration information for measurement logging, the configuration information including a PLMN-ID (Public Land Mobile Network Identity); and

receiving, from the radio terminal, a report of logged measurement results which have been logged by the radio terminal,

wherein the configuration information causes the radio terminal to perform logging of measurement results when a first condition related to the PLMN-ID is satisfied, and to transmit, to the radio network, the report of logged measurement results when the first condition related to the PLMN-ID is satisfied.

8. The method according to claim 7 ,

wherein the first condition is whether a PLMN-ID of the radio terminal is the same as the PLMN-ID included in the configuration information.

9. The method according to claim 7 ,

wherein the configuration information further includes area information, the area information including at least one of a Cell-ID and a location area to which the radio terminal belongs, and wherein the logging of measurement results is performed when both of the first condition related to the PLMN-ID included in the configuration information and a second condition related to the area information are satisfied.
