Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant de prendre en charge une préférence de puissance d'un équipement d'utilisateur en considération d'une qualité de service (QoS) et un appareil associé, et lorsque l'équipement d'utilisateur transmet à la station de base une indication de préférence de puissance (PPI) indiquant un état de préférence de puissance et une indication de préférence de qualité de service (QPI) indiquant un état de préférence de qualité de service (QoS), la station de base peut reconfigurer un paramètre associé au RRC par rapport à l'équipement d'utilisateur sur la base de l'indication de préférence de puissance et de l'indication de préférence de qualité de service. Selon la présente invention, la station de base et l'équipement d'utilisateur prennent en considération la préférence de QoS de l'équipement d'utilisateur et reconfigurent de manière adaptative le paramètre associé au RRC.
