[0211] (3) The cell indicated by the network device.

[0212] In some embodiments, the network device may indicate to the terminal which cells are the first cells, so that the terminal can determine the first cell based on the indication of the network device. It should be noted that both steps S2101 and S2102 above may be optional steps, that is, step S2101 and step S2102 may not be performed, and this is not limited in the present embodiment.

[0213] Step S2103: The terminal determines first information based on the first state and / or the second state.

[0214] In some embodiments, the terminal determines the first information based on the first state. In some embodiments, the terminal determines the first information based on the second state. In some embodiments, the terminal determines the first information based on the first state and the second state.

[0215] Optionally, the first state includes at least one of the terminal's location or the terminal's altitude.

Optionally, the second state includes at least one of the channel quality or the load strength of the first cell. That is, when the terminal determines the first information based on the second state, it needs to determine the first information based on at least one of the channel quality or the load strength of the first cell.

[0216] In some embodiments, the first state and / or the second state does not meet a first threshold, and the first information is determined to indicate a failure in handover to the first cell.

[0217] Optionally, the first threshold includes at least one of a first position range, a first height range, a first mass threshold or a first load intensity.

[0218] Optionally, the first state includes the location of the terminal, and the first threshold includes a first location range; if the location of the terminal is not within the first location range, determining the first information indicates a failure in switching to the first cell. In some embodiments, the terminal predicts the location of the terminal included in the first state based on the terminal's current location. In some embodiments, the first location range indicates a valid range of the first cell. If the terminal's location is not within the first location range, it indicates that the terminal will not be within the valid range of the first cell in the future, resulting in an inability to switch to the first cell.

[0219] Optionally, the first state includes the height of the terminal, and the first threshold includes a first height range; if the height of the terminal is not within the first height range, the first information is determined to indicate a failure in switching to the first cell. In some embodiments, the terminal predicts the height of the terminal included in the first state based on the current height of the terminal. In some embodiments, the first height range is used to indicate the valid range of the first cell. If the terminal is not within the first height range, it means that the terminal will not be within the valid range of the first cell in the future, resulting in an inability to switch to the first cell.

[0220] Optionally, the second state includes the first channel quality of the first cell, and the first threshold includes a first quality threshold; the first channel quality is lower than the first quality threshold, and the first information is determined to indicate that the switching to the first cell has failed. In some embodiments, the first channel quality refers to the channel quality of the first cell at a time after the current time. In some embodiments, the terminal obtains the first channel quality based on the channel quality prediction of the first cell at the current time, that is, obtains the first channel quality of the first cell. In some embodiments, the terminal measures the channel quality of the first cell at the current time to obtain the channel quality of the first cell at the current time. In some embodiments, the first channel quality of the first cell is lower than the first quality threshold, and the first information is determined to indicate that the switching to the first cell has failed. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the first channel quality is lower than the first quality threshold, it means that the channel quality of the first cell in the future is poor, and the terminal cannot successfully switch to the first cell.

[0221] Optionally, the second state includes a first load intensity of the first cell, and the first threshold includes the first load intensity; the first load intensity is higher than the first load intensity, and the first information is determined to indicate that the switching to the first cell has failed. In some embodiments, the first load intensity refers to the load intensity of the first cell at a time after the current moment. In some embodiments, the terminal predicts the first load intensity based on the load intensity of the first cell at the current moment, that is, obtains the first load intensity of the first cell. In some embodiments, the first load intensity of the first cell is higher than the first load intensity, and the first information is determined to indicate that the switching to the first cell has failed. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, if the first load intensity is higher than the first quality threshold, it means that the load intensity of the first cell will be high in the future, and the terminal cannot successfully switch to the first cell.

[0222] It should be noted that the above embodiments are described by taking the first state including the location of the terminal or the height of the terminal, or the second state including the first channel quality of the first cell or the first load strength of the first cell as an example. In another embodiment, the first state may also include the location of the terminal and the height of the terminal at the same time, and the second state may also include the first channel quality of the first cell and the first load strength of the first cell at the same time. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first information can be determined based on multiple parameters. Alternatively, it can also be understood that the terminal determines that the first information is used to indicate a failure to switch to the first cell based on the fact that the multiple parameters included in the first state or the multiple parameters included in the second state do not meet the first threshold.

[0223] Optionally, the first state includes the location of the terminal and the height of the terminal, and the first threshold includes a first location range and a first height range; the location of the terminal is not within the first location range and the height of the terminal is not within the first height range, and the first information is determined to indicate a failure in switching to the first cell.

[0225] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present disclosure are described using the above two situations as examples. In another embodiment, other conditions may be met at the same time to determine a message indicating a failure in switching to the first cell.

[0226] In some embodiments, the first state and / or the second state continuously fails to meet a first threshold within a first time period, and the first information is determined to indicate a failure in switching to the first cell.

[0227] Optionally, the first state includes the location of the terminal, the first threshold includes a first location range; the location of the terminal is not within the first location range within a first time period, and the first information is determined to indicate a failure in switching to the first cell.

[0231] The difference between the method for determining the first information to indicate the failure of handover to the first cell in the embodiment of the present disclosure and the method for determining the first information to indicate the failure of handover to the first cell in the above embodiment is that the limitation of the first duration is added in the embodiment of the present disclosure, that is, when the time length during which the first state and / or the second state meets the first threshold is greater than the first duration, the first information is determined to indicate the failure of handover to the first cell. This disclosure will not elaborate on this.

[0232] In some embodiments, the first state and / or the second state satisfies the second threshold, and the first information is determined to indicate that the switching to the first cell is successful. Optionally, the second threshold includes at least one of a second position range, a second altitude range, a second quality threshold, or a second load intensity. It should be noted that the first position range and the second position range in the embodiment of the present disclosure may be the same or different. It should be noted that the first altitude range and the second altitude range in the embodiment of the present disclosure may be the same or different. It should be noted that the first quality threshold and the second quality threshold in the embodiment of the present disclosure may be the same or different. It should be noted that the first load intensity and the second load intensity in the embodiment of the present disclosure may be the same or different.

[0233] Optionally, the first state includes the location of the terminal, and the second threshold includes a second location range; if the terminal's location is within the second location range, determining the first information indicates successful handover to the first cell. In some embodiments, the terminal predicts the terminal's location included in the first state based on its current location. In some embodiments, the second location range indicates a valid range of the first cell. If the terminal's location is within the second location range, it indicates that the terminal can successfully handover to the first cell within the valid range of the first cell in the future.

[0234] Optionally, the first state includes the height of the terminal, and the second threshold includes a second height range; if the height of the terminal is within the second height range, the first information is determined to indicate that the handover to the first cell is successful. In some embodiments, the terminal predicts the height of the terminal included in the first state based on the terminal's current height. In some embodiments, the second height range is used to indicate the effective range of the first cell. If the terminal's location is within the second height range, it means that the terminal can successfully handover to the first cell within the effective range of the first cell in the future.

[0235] Optionally, the second state includes the first channel quality of the first cell, and the second threshold includes a second quality threshold; the second channel quality is higher than the second quality threshold, and the first information is determined to indicate that the switch to the first cell is successful. In some embodiments, the first channel quality refers to the channel quality of the first cell at a time after the current time. In some embodiments, the terminal obtains the first channel quality based on the channel quality prediction of the first cell at the current time, that is, obtains the first channel quality of the first cell. In some embodiments, the terminal measures the channel quality of the first cell at the current time to obtain the channel quality of the first cell at the current time. In some embodiments, the first channel quality of the first cell is higher than the second quality threshold, and the first information is determined to indicate that the switch to the first cell has failed. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the first channel quality is higher than the second quality threshold, it means that the channel quality of the first cell is high in the future, and the terminal can successfully switch to the first cell.

[0236] Optionally, the first state includes a first load intensity of the first cell, and the first threshold includes the first load intensity; the first load intensity is lower than the second load intensity, and the first information is determined to indicate that the switch to the first cell is successful. In some embodiments, the first load intensity refers to the load intensity of the first cell at a moment after the current moment. In some embodiments, the terminal predicts the first load intensity based on the load intensity of the first cell at the current moment, that is, obtains the first load intensity of the first cell. In some embodiments, the first load intensity of the first cell is lower than the first load intensity, and the first information is determined to indicate that the switch to the first cell is successful. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the first load intensity is lower than the first load intensity, it means that the load intensity of the first cell in the future is low, and the terminal can successfully switch to the first cell.

[0237] It should be noted that the above embodiments are described by taking the first state including the location of the terminal or the height of the terminal, or the second state including the first channel quality of the first cell or the first load strength of the first cell as an example. In another embodiment, the first state can also include the location of the terminal and the height of the terminal at the same time, and the second state can also include the first channel quality of the first cell and the first load strength of the first cell at the same time. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first information can be determined based on multiple parameters. Alternatively, it can also be understood that the terminal determines that the first information is used to indicate that the switch to the first cell is successful based on the multiple parameters included in the first state or the multiple parameters included in the second state meeting the second threshold.

[0238] Optionally, the first state includes the location of the terminal and the height of the terminal, and the second threshold includes a first location range and a first height range; the location of the terminal is within the second location range and the height of the terminal is within the second height range, and the first information is determined to indicate that the switch to the first cell is successful.

[0239] Optionally, the first state includes the location of the terminal, the second state includes the first channel quality of the first cell, the location of the terminal is within the second location range and the first channel quality is higher than the second quality threshold, and the first information is determined to indicate that the switching to the first cell is successful.

[0240] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present disclosure are described using the above two situations as examples. In another embodiment, other conditions may be met at the same time to determine information indicating that the switching to the first cell is successful.

[0241] In some embodiments, the first state and / or the second state continuously satisfies a first threshold within a first time period, and the first information is determined to indicate that the handover to the first cell is successful.

[0242] Optionally, the first state includes the location of the terminal, the second threshold includes a second location range; the location of the terminal is within the second location range within the first time period, and the first information is determined to indicate that the switching to the first cell is successful.

[0246] The difference between the method for determining the first information to indicate the failure of handover to the first cell in the embodiment of the present disclosure and the method for determining the first information to indicate the failure of handover to the first cell in the above embodiment is that the limitation of the first duration is added in the embodiment of the present disclosure, that is, when the time length during which the first state and / or the second state meets the first threshold is greater than the first duration, the first information is determined to indicate the failure of handover to the first cell. This disclosure will not elaborate on this.

[0247] The following describes how the terminal determines the first threshold, the second state, or the first duration.

[0248] In some embodiments, the terminal determines at least one of the first threshold or the second threshold based on a first cell. In the disclosed embodiment, the first cell has a corresponding relationship with the first threshold or the second threshold, so after determining the first cell, the corresponding first threshold or the second threshold can be determined based on the first cell.

[0249] In some embodiments, the terminal determines at least one of the first threshold or the second threshold based on the frequency of the first cell. In the disclosed embodiment, the frequency of the first cell corresponds to the first threshold or the second threshold. Therefore, after determining the frequency of the first cell, the corresponding first threshold or the second threshold can be determined based on the frequency of the first cell.

[0250] In some embodiments, the terminal receives second information sent by the network device, where the second information indicates the first threshold or the second threshold. In embodiments of the present disclosure, the network device can configure the first threshold or the second threshold for the terminal. Optionally, the network device sends a request message to the first cell, and the first cell returns the first threshold or the second threshold to the network device based on the request message. The network device then sends second information to the terminal, where the second information includes the first threshold or the second threshold.

[0251] In some embodiments, the network device requests the first cell to send the first threshold or the second threshold, the network device sends fourth information to the first cell, the fourth information is used to request the first threshold or the second threshold, and the first cell sends third information to the network device, the third information is used to indicate the first threshold or the second threshold.

[0252] In some embodiments, the first information includes at least one of the following:

[0253] (1) At least one cell identifier, where the cell identifier is used to indicate a first cell.

[0254] (2) Indication information: The indication information is used to indicate whether the handover to the first cell is successful.

[0255] In some embodiments, if the first information includes both a cell identifier and indication information, each cell identifier corresponds to one indication information. Alternatively, it can be understood that the cell identifier and the indication information are in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0256] (3) First state.

[0257] (4) Second state.

[0258] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, by directly carrying the first status or the second status in the first information and reporting it to the network device, the network device can determine whether it can switch to the first cell based on the first status or the second status.

[0259] Among them, the way in which the network device and the terminal determine whether to switch to the first cell is similar and will not be repeated here.

[0260] Step S2104: The terminal sends first information to the network device.

[0261] Step S2105: The network device receives the first information sent by the terminal.

[0262] In some embodiments, the terminal sends the first information, and correspondingly, the network device receives the first information.

[0263] Step S2106: The network device determines whether to switch to the first cell based on the first information.

[0264] In some embodiments, if the first information includes a first channel quality, the network device determines whether to switch to the first cell based on the first channel quality.

[0265] In some embodiments, if the first information includes a cell identifier and indication information, it can be determined whether switching to the first cell corresponding to the corresponding cell identifier is possible according to the indication of the indication information.

[0266] In some embodiments, after the network device determines that a handover to the first cell is possible, it sends a handover request to the first cell. The first cell confirms that the handover is possible based on the handover request and sends a handover command to the terminal. The handover command includes configuration information of the first cell, and optionally, the configuration information includes bearer configuration, MAC configuration, and random access configuration. After receiving the handover command, the terminal synchronizes with the first cell and initiates a random access process to the first cell to access the first cell.

[0267] The communication method involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure may include at least one of steps S2101 to S2105. For example, step S2101 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2102 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2103 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2104 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2105 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, steps S2101 and S2102 can be implemented as independent embodiments, steps S2101 and S2103 can be implemented as independent embodiments, steps S2101 and S2104 can be implemented as independent embodiments, steps S2102 and S2103 can be implemented as independent embodiments, steps S2102 and S2104 can be implemented as independent embodiments, and steps S2103 and S2104 can be implemented as independent embodiments, but are not limited thereto.
