Registration method and device of terminal equipment

Abstract

The invention provides a registration method and device of terminal equipment, which are used for solving the problem that the power consumption is increased because the terminal equipment is always in a connected state. The method comprises the following steps of: initiating a registration process by terminal equipment in an idle state; after the terminal equipment completes the registration process, when determining that a starting condition of a timer is met and a signaling needing to be sent exists on the terminal equipment, postponing the starting of the timer; and after the flow of sending the signaling is completed, starting the timer, wherein the timer is used for instructing the terminal equipment to enter the idle state when the timer is overtime. According to the registration method, a service request based on signaling does not need to be initiated to enter the connection state from the idle state, the signaling consumption is reduced, and the terminal equipment can complete a signaling sending process, such as a PDU session resource modification process; and when the timer is overtime after the terminal equipment starts the timer, the terminal equipment can enter the idle state, and power consumption is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technologies, in particular to a registration method and device for terminal equipment. Background technique [0002] In the 5th generation (5G) communication system, after the terminal equipment is connected, the terminal equipment can be placed in the power saving mode as much as possible without affecting the normal business. For example, after the terminal device completes the registration process of accessing the 5G network and meets the timer start condition, it will trigger the start of the T3540 timer. When the T3540 timer expires, the terminal device enters the idle state and is in the power saving mode. [0003] When the terminal device is redirected or reselected from the 4G network to the 5G network, because the terminal capabilities of different systems are somewhat different, after the terminal device accesses the 5G network, it needs to modify the session resource through the Pr...
