Handover method and device for terminal that supports dual active protocol stack in mobile 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. According to the disclosure, when a dual active protocol stack (DAPS) handover is supported in a next generation mobile communication system, received system information can be readily processed.
1. A method by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a source base station, a dedicated radio resource control (RRC) message including a handover (HO) command;
obtaining a system information block (SIB);
identifying whether a dual active protocol stack (DAPS) HO is configured;
identifying whether the obtained SIB is SIB1;
in case the obtained SIB is SIB1, identifying whether the SIB1 is obtained from the dedicated RRC message;
in case that the DAPS HO is configured and the SIB1 is obtained from the dedicated RRC message, identifying whether a preconfigured event occurs; and
in case that the DAPS HO is configured and the SIB1 is obtained from the dedicated RRC message, performing at least one operation according to the SIB1 after the preconfigured event occurs.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the preconfigured event comprises transmission of an RRC connection reconfiguration complete message to a target base station having performed the DAPS HO based on the dedicated RRC message.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the performing of the at least one operation further comprises transmitting a cell identity to an upper layer device.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the performing of the at least one operation further comprises transmitting a tracking area code to an upper layer device.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
immediately performing at least one operation according to the SIB when the SIB is obtained, in case that the DAPS HO is not configured or the SIB is not obtained from the dedicated RRC message.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the obtaining of the SIB is performed when the DAPS HO is configured and the terminal is in an RRC connected mode.
7. A terminal in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:
a transceiver; and
a controller configured to:
control the transceiver to receive, from a source base station, a dedicated radio resource control (RRC) message including a handover (HO) command,
obtain a system information block (SIB),
identify whether a dual active protocol stack (DAPS) HO is configured,
identify whether the obtained SIB is SIB1,
in case the obtained SIB is SIB1, identify whether the SIB is obtained from the dedicated RRC message,
in case that the DAPS HO is configured and the SIB1 is obtained from the dedicated RRC message, identify whether a preconfigured event occurs; and
in case that the DAPS HO is configured and the SIB1 is obtained from the dedicated RRC message, perform at least one operation according to the SIB1 after the preconfigured event occurs.
8. The terminal of claim 7 , wherein the preconfigured event comprises transmission of an RRC connection reconfiguration complete message to a target base station having performed the DAPS HO based on the dedicated RRC message.
9. The terminal of claim 7 , wherein the at least one operation according to the SIB is configured to transmit a cell identity to an upper layer device.
10. The terminal of claim 7 , wherein the at least one operation according to the SIB is configured to transmit a tracking area code to an upper layer device.
11. The terminal of claim 7 , wherein the controller is further configured to immediately perform at least one operation according to the SIB when the SIB is obtained, in case that the DAPS HO is not configured or the SIB is not obtained from the dedicated RRC message.
12. The terminal of claim 7 , wherein the obtained SIB is obtained when the DAPS HO is configured and the terminal is in an RRC connected mode.
