Abstract

A mobility parameter adjustment method and apparatus for use in a wireless communication system is provided. The mobility parameter adjustment method of a base station includes receiving connection failure information from a terminal, and adjusting a mobility adjustment parameter based on the connection failure information. The mobility parameter adjustment method and apparatus of the present disclosure is capable of adjusting mobility parameter efficiently so as to improve the mobility robustness of the wireless communication system and User Equipment (UE).

Claims (27)

1. A method by a first base station, the method comprising:

transmitting, by the first base station, a message for triggering a handover for a terminal; and

receiving, by the first base station, a handover report including a radio link failure (RLF) report from a second base station based on a reason for an RLF of the terminal,

wherein the RLF report is generated from the terminal,

wherein the reason for the RLF of the terminal is identified based on the RLF report, and

wherein the RLF report in the handover report includes at least one identity of a public land mobile network (PLMN).

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein a message including the RLF report is received by the second base station from a third base station which received information related to a failure from the terminal, and

wherein the RLF report included in the message is transferred to the first base station by using the handover report.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the message includes an RLF indication message.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first base station is a network node of which the mobility parameter is required to be adjusted based on the reason for the RLF.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the RLF report is used to identify a cell for serving the terminal at the time of the RLF.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

adjusting a mobility parameter based on the RLF report.

7. A first base station comprising:

a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a signal; and

a processor configured to:

transmit a message for triggering a handover for a terminal, and

receive a handover report including a radio link failure (RLF) report from a second base station based on a reason for an RLF of the terminal,

wherein the RLF report is generated from the terminal,

wherein the reason for the RLF of the terminal is identified based on the RLF report, and

wherein the RLF report in the handover report includes at least one identity of a public land mobile network (PLMN).

8. The first base station of claim 7 , wherein a message including the RLF report is received by the second base station from a third base station which received information related to a failure from the terminal, and

wherein the RLF report included in the message is transferred to the first base station by using the handover report.

9. The first base station of claim 8 , wherein the message includes an RLF indication message.

10. The first base station of claim 7 , wherein the first base station is a network node of which the mobility parameter is required to be adjusted based on the reason for the RLF.

11. The first base station of claim 7 , wherein the RLF report is used to identify a cell for serving the terminal at the time of the RLF.

12. The first base station of claim 7 , wherein the processor is further configured to adjusting a mobility parameter based on the RLF report.
