Apparatus and method of reporting logged measurement in wireless communication system
A method and apparatus of reporting logged measurements of an user equipment in a wireless communication system is provided. The user equipment in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connected mode receives from a base station a Minimization of Drive Tests (MDT) configuration. The user equipment transitions from the RRC connected mode to an RRC idle mode and logs measurements based on the MDT configuration. The user equipment transmits to the base station a logging indicator indicating an availability of the logged measurement.
1. A method of reporting logged measurements of a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, by the UE, a measurement configuration from a base station;
logging, by the UE, one or more measurements based on the received measurement configuration;
transmitting, by the UE, a radio resource control (RRC) connection request message to the base station;
receiving, by the UE, a RRC connection setup message in response to the transmitted RRC connection request message; and
transmitting, by the UE, a RRC connection setup complete message in response to the received RRC connection setup message,
wherein the RRC connection setup complete message comprises an indicator, which when set, indicates the availability of the logged measurement.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the measurement configuration is a Minimization of Drive Tests (MDT) configuration.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the measurement configuration is received by the UE when the UE is in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connected mode.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the logging of the measurements is performed when the UE is in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) idle mode.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the indicator is a one bit indicator indicating the availability of the logged measurement.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the one bit indicator is a logging indicator.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the indicator is set to ‘True’ if the UE has logged measurements available.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the measurement configuration includes a logging interval indicating periodicity for the logging measurements.
9. An apparatus of reporting logged measurements in a wireless communication system, the apparatus comprising:
a processor configured to receive a measurement configuration,
to log one or more measurements based on the measurement configuration,
to transmit a radio resource control (RRC) connection request message,
to receive a RRC connection setup message in response to the transmitted RRC connection request message, and
to transmit a RRC connection setup complete message in response to the received RRC connection setup message,
wherein the RRC connection setup complete message comprises an indicator, which when set, indicates the availability of the logged measurement.
10. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the measurement configuration is a Minimization of Drive Tests (MDT) configuration.
11. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the measurement configuration is received at a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connected mode.
12. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the logging of the measurements is performed at a Radio Resource Control (RRC) idle mode.
13. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the indicator is a one bit indicator indicating the availability of the logged measurement.
14. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the one bit indicator is a logging indicator.
15. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the indicator is set to ‘True’ if the UE has logged measurements available.
16. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the measurement configuration includes a logging interval indicating periodicity for the logging measurements.
17. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the logged measurements include measurement results of at least one serving cell and time information.
