MINIMIZING DRIVE TEST LOGGED DATA REPORTING

摘要

This disclosure pertains to a method in a network node, a method in user equipment, a network node and user equipment in a wireless communications network. More particularly, there is provided methods and platforms for network based control of report messages comprising logged measurements in a wireless communications network. In accordance with some example embodiments, a UE (30) that has stored logged data i.e. logged measurements that are bigger than a single transmission packet, i.e. report message, segments the logged measurements and sends only a portion of the logged measurements that fits into a single report message. The UE (30) also indicates to a network node (28) that additional logged measurements exist at the UE buffer (44).

主权项

1. Method in a network node for network based control of report messages in a wireless communications network, the network node being configured to serve a user equipment, UE, and to receive report messages from the UE, the method comprising:
sending a request to the UE to start transmitting logged measurements in a report message; receiving the report message comprising logged measurements; determining if the received report message comprises an indicator of additional logged measurements not yet transmitted; and if so, deciding if the additional logged measurements are to be requested.
