Abstract

Procédé d'acquisition d'informations de système, procédé et appareil d'envoi. L'invention concerne un procédé grâce auquel un équipement terminal dans un état connecté obtient des informations de système. Le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes : un équipement terminal envoie un premier message de requête à un dispositif de réseau, le premier message de requête étant utilisé pour demander des premières informations de système modifiées depuis un côté réseau ; et ensuite, l'équipement terminal reçoit les premières informations de système en provenance du dispositif de réseau. Le dispositif de réseau peut envoyer activement les premières informations de système modifiées à l'équipement terminal lorsque les premières informations de système changent, et par conséquent, même si les premières informations de système changent, l'équipement terminal n'a pas besoin d'envoyer à nouveau une requête au dispositif de réseau, ce qui permet de réduire le nombre de requêtes faites par l'équipement terminal et de réduire le surdébit de l'équipement terminal pour obtenir les informations de système.
