Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil de configuration d'informations de cellule, ainsi qu'un support de stockage lisible et un système de puce, qui se rapportent au domaine technique des communications et sont utilisés pour configurer un TAC pour un relais mobile qui présente une mobilité. Selon la présente demande, un TAC d'une cellule d'une entité DU d'un relais mobile est un TAC d'une cellule d'un dispositif de réseau d'accès auquel accède une entité MT du relais mobile. De cette manière, un côté réseau peut déterminer, selon un TAC d'un relais mobile auquel accède un dispositif terminal, une cellule d'un dispositif de réseau d'accès auquel accède le relais mobile, et peut déterminer ensuite l'emplacement du dispositif terminal qui accède au relais mobile.
