A terminal capability acquisition method in a dual connection system

Abstract

The invention discloses a terminal capability acquisition method in a dual-connection system. When a user terminal needs to perform intra-system inter-frequency handover, the first main base station determines whether the target frequency point is in the frequency band combination of the current user terminal capability information. If the frequency band combination capability information corresponding to the target frequency is not found, the user terminal capability information is obtained to obtain the corresponding frequency band combination capability information, and the frequency band combination capability information corresponding to the target frequency obtained from the measurement report or the newly acquired target frequency is attached to the previous user. In the terminal capability information, it is brought to the second master base station in the handover request, and the second master base station measures or configures a different system secondary cell according to whether the different system is configured, and sends the reconfiguration message to the first master base station; the user terminal through the reconfiguration The message accesses the second primary base station and the secondary cell to establish a dual connection. On the premise of not increasing the handover delay, the method can enable the target base station to quickly obtain the frequency band combination, has strong operability, and is simple and effective to implement.

Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a method for acquiring terminal capabilities in a dual connection system. Background technique

[0002] With the development of electronic technology, a new generation of communication technology is constantly emerging. For operators, communication equipment based on the old generation of communication technology covers a wide range. It will take a certain amount of time for the new generation of communication equipment to gradually replace the old equipment. Therefore, In this process, there will be situations where old and new equipment provide services at the same time. In order to maximize the utilization rate of old and new equipment at the same time and improve user experience, a dual connection technology is invented and used in which the old equipment is used as the coverage layer and the new equipment is used as the capacity layer. For example, in the lat...
