Abstract

Dispositif terminal recevant un message RRC en provenance d'un dispositif de station de base, configurant les réglages du dispositif terminal conformément au message RRC, et effectuant un traitement de défaillance de transfert intercellulaire sur la base de l'expiration d'un premier temporisateur du dispositif terminal. Dans le traitement de défaillance de transfert intercellulaire, un traitement est effectué pour, sur la base de l'exécution d'au moins une première condition, maintenir une partie des réglages, parmi les réglages du dispositif terminal, par rapport à une partie ou à l'entièreté des porteuses sans fil, et pour restaurer les réglages, autres que ladite partie des réglages, aux réglages qui étaient utilisés par une PCell ressource.
