Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif de communication associés au domaine technique des communications, destinés à être utilisés pour résoudre le problème selon lequel un réseau ne peut pas localiser un véhicule aérien sans pilote en raison de l'état inactif du véhicule aérien sans pilote. Le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes : à acquérir, par un dispositif de réseau d'accès, des informations d'identification d'une première zone ; et à diffuser, par le dispositif de réseau d'accès et dans la première zone, des premières informations d'indication utilisées pour indiquer à un dispositif terminal de premier type d'entrer dans un état connecté ou de maintenir un état connecté ou d'entrer dans un état connecté et de maintenir l'état connecté. Le dispositif de réseau d'accès, en diffusant les premières informations d'indication dans la première zone, permet au dispositif terminal de premier type dans un état inactif dans la première zone d'entrer dans l'état connecté et, lorsque le dispositif terminal de premier type est un véhicule aérien sans pilote, résout le problème selon lequel le réseau ne peut pas localiser le véhicule aérien sans pilote en raison de l'état inactif du véhicule aérien sans pilote.
