Discontinuous reception mode of connected mode in mobile communication system
The present disclosure relates to a communication technique and system for integrating a 5G communication system for supporting a higher data rate after a 4G system with IoT technology. Based on 5G communication technology and IoT related technology, this disclosure may be applied to an intelligent service (e.g., smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car or connected car, health care, digital education, retail, security and safety related service). Embodiments relate to a method and apparatus for performing an access in an RRC inactive mode in a next generation mobile communication system.
1. A method performed by a terminal in a communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a base station, system information including access barring configurations for access categories, the access barring configurations including an access category and a barring configuration for the access category;
receiving, from the base station, a radio resource control (RRC) message for transitioning a state of the terminal from an RRC connected state to an RRC inactive state, wherein the RRC message includes configurations for data radio bearers (DRBs) and a configuration for a DRB includes an access category mapped to the DRB among the access categories;
identifying that an access attempt is triggered in the RRC inactive state;
in case that the access attempt is associated with the DRB among the DRBs and in case that an access category of the access attempt and the access category mapped to the DRB are different, determining whether the access attempt is barred based on an access barring configuration corresponding to the access category mapped to the DRB; and
in case that the access attempt is not barred, performing an RRC resume procedure,
wherein the access categories include an access category associated with an application, an access category associated with an emergency call, at least one access category associated with mobile originating (MO) signaling, at least one access category associated with MO data, and at least one access category associated with DRBs.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein a context of the terminal is stored in the terminal in the RRC inactive state.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
in case that the access attempt is not associated with the DRBs, determining whether the access attempt is barred based on a barring configuration corresponding to the access attempt included in the system information.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the access barring configuration includes barring information associated with an emergency service, and
wherein a priority of the barring information associated with the emergency service is configured to be highest.
5. A terminal in a communication system, the terminal comprising:
a transceiver; and
a controller coupled with the transceiver and configured to:
receive, via the transceiver from a base station, system information including access barring configurations for access categories, the access barring configurations including an access category and a barring configuration for the access category,
receive, via the transceiver from the base station, a radio resource control (RRC) message for transitioning a state of the terminal from an RRC connected state to an RRC inactive state, wherein the RRC message includes configurations for data radio bearers (DRBs) and a configuration for a DRB includes an access category mapped to the DRB among the access categories,
identify that an access attempt is triggered in the RRC inactive state,
in case that the access attempt is associated with the DRB among the DRBs and in case that an access category of the access attempt and the access category mapped to the DRB are different, determine whether the access attempt is barred based on an access barring configuration corresponding to the access category mapped to the DRB, and
in case that the access attempt is not barred, perform an RRC resume procedure,
wherein the access categories include an access category associated with an application, an access category associated with an emergency call, at least one access category associated with mobile originating (MO) signaling, at least one access category associated with MO data, and at least one access category associated with DRBs.
6. The terminal of claim 5 , wherein a context of the terminal is stored in the terminal in the RRC inactive state.
7. The terminal of claim 5 , wherein the controller is further configured to:
in case that the access attempt is not associated with the DRBs, determine whether the access attempt is barred based on barring configuration corresponding to the access attempt included in the system information.
8. The terminal of claim 7 , wherein the access barring configuration includes barring information associated with an emergency service, and
wherein a priority of the barring information associated with the emergency service is configured to be highest.
