Abstract

Selon un aspect, la présente invention concerne un moyen de communication permettant d'empêcher une commutation de cellule indésirable entre des cellules de deux types de dispositifs de station de base fournis par un 5GS, entre des cellules de deux types de dispositifs de station de base fournis par un EPS, et entre le 5 GS et l'EPS. L'invention concerne un moyen de communication permettant d'empêcher une commutation de cellule indésirable en utilisant non seulement une cause de rejet de gestion de mobilité normale mais également une valeur de cause de rejet d'extension permettant de notifier à un dispositif terminal si une communication à l'aide d'une fonction radio fournie par deux types de dispositifs de station de base est possible ou non.
