Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The present disclosure relates to a method and device for detecting a neighboring cell in a cell reselection process. The method includes: receiving a message instructing the user equipment to switch from a connected state to an idle state, the message including a first frequency band group which further includes one or more frequency bands; updating a second frequency band group stored in the user equipment, according to the first frequency band group; and when the cell reselection process is performed by the user equipment, detecting a neighboring cell on at least one frequency band in the updated second frequency band group.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method performed by user equipment to detect a neighboring cell in a cell reselection process, the method comprising: receiving a message instructing the user equipment to switch from a connected state to an idle state, the message including a first frequency band group which further includes one or more frequency bands; updating a second frequency band group stored in the user equipment, according to the first frequency band group; and when the cell reselection process is performed by the user equipment, detecting a neighboring cell on at least one frequency band in the updated second frequency band group, wherein the updating of the second frequency band group according to the first frequency band group further includes: when the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group are undedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell and the second frequency band group includes only undedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell, updating the undedicated frequency bands in the second frequency band group according to the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group; when the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group are undedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell and the second frequency band group includes both undedicated frequency bands and dedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell, updating the undedicated frequency bands in the second frequency band group according to the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group and deleting the dedicated frequency bands in the second frequency band group; when the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group include both undedicated frequency bands and dedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell and the second frequency band group includes only undedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell, adding the dedicated frequency bands in the first frequency band group to the second frequency band group and updating the undedicated frequency bands in the second frequency band group according to the undedicated frequency bands in the first frequency band group; and when the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group include both undedicated frequency bands and dedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell and the second frequency band group includes both undedicated frequency bands and dedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell, updating the undedicated and dedicated frequency bands in the second frequency band group according to the undedicated and dedicated frequency bands in the first frequency band group, respectively. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein: the message further includes priorities of the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group; and the detecting of the neighboring cell on the at least one frequency band in the updated second frequency band group further includes: detecting the neighboring cell according to the priorities of the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the message is a radio resource control connection release (RRC Connection Release) message. 4. A device applied in user equipment for detecting a neighboring cell in a cell reselection process, the device comprising: a processor; and a memory for storing instructions executable by the processor; wherein the processor is configured to: receive a message instructing the user equipment to switch from a connected state to an idle state, the message including a first frequency band group which further includes one or more frequency bands; update a second frequency band group stored in the user equipment, according to the first frequency band group; and when the cell reselection process is performed by the user equipment, detect a neighboring cell on at least one frequency band in the updated second frequency band group, wherein in updating the second frequency band group according to the first frequency band group, the processor is further configured to: when the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group are undedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell and the second frequency band group includes only undedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell, update the undedicated frequency bands in the second frequency band group according to the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group; when the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group are undedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell and the second frequency band group includes both undedicated frequency bands and dedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell, update the undedicated frequency bands in the second frequency band group according to the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group and delete the dedicated frequency bands in the second frequency band group; when the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group include both undedicated frequency bands and dedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell and the second frequency band group includes only undedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell, add the dedicated frequency bands in the first frequency band group to the second frequency band group and update the undedicated frequency bands in the second frequency band group according to the undedicated frequency bands in the first frequency band group; and when the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group include both undedicated frequency bands and dedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell and the second frequency band group includes both undedicated frequency bands and dedicated frequency bands for detecting the neighboring cell, update the undedicated and dedicated frequency bands in the second frequency band group according to the undedicated and dedicated frequency bands in the first frequency band group, respectively. 5. The device of claim 4 , wherein: the message further includes priorities of the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group; and the processor is further configured to: detect the neighboring cell according to the priorities of the one or more frequency bands in the first frequency band group. 6. The device of claim 4 , wherein the message is a radio resource control connection release (RRC Connection Release) message.
