Communication method and apparatus in wireless communication system
The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5 th -Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4 th -Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A communication method and apparatus in a wireless communication system is provided. The communication method of a terminal in a wireless communication system includes: connecting to a cellular network via a base station; receiving a control message comprising measurement-related information associated with a wireless local area network (WLAN) from the base station; and measuring the WLAN based on the measurement-related information.
1. A communication method of a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a base station, a message configuring a radio resource control (RRC) connection, the message comprising first information configuring a measurement object for a wireless local area network (WLAN) and second information configuring a reporting of the measurement, wherein the first information comprises country information and operating class information of the measurement object;
performing a measurement on the measurement object for the WLAN which is identified based on the first information; and
transmitting, to the base station, a result of the measurement based on the second information.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second information configures the terminal to report the result of the measurement in case that the result is greater than a threshold.
3. A communication method of a base station in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
transmitting, to a terminal, a message configuring a radio resource control (RRC) connection, the message comprising first information configuring a measurement object for a wireless local area network (WLAN) and second information configuring a reporting of the measurement, wherein the first information comprises country information and operating class information of the measurement object; and
receiving, from the terminal, a result of a measurement based on the second information,
wherein the measurement is performed on the measurement object for the WLAN which is identified based on the first information.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the second information configures the terminal to report the result of the measurement in case that the measurement result is greater than a threshold.
5. A terminal of a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:
a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a signal; and
a controller configured to:
receive, from a base station, a configuring message configuring a radio resource control (RRC) connection, the message comprising first information configuring a measurement object for a wireless local area network (WLAN) and second information configuring a reporting of the measurement, wherein the first information comprises country information and operating class information of the measurement object,
performing a measurement on the measurement object for the WLAN which is identified based on the first information, and
transmitting, to the base station, a result of the measurement based on the second information.
6. The terminal of claim 5 , wherein the second information configures the terminal to report the result of the measurement in case that the result is greater than a threshold.
7. A base station of a wireless communication system, the base station comprising:
a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a signal; and
a controller configured to:
transmit, to a terminal, a message configuring a radio resource control (RRC) connection, the message comprising first information configuring a measurement object for a wireless local area network (WLAN) and second information configuring a reporting of the measurement, wherein the first information comprises country information and operating class information of the measurement object, and
receiving, from the terminal, a result of a measurement based on the second information,
wherein the measurement is performed on the measurement object for the WLAN which is identified based on the first information.
8. The base station of claim 7 , wherein the second information configures the terminal to report the result of the measurement in case that the result is greater than a threshold.
