Abstract
The present disclosure discloses a communication state transition method. The method comprises: receiving, by a user equipment, information of one or more candidate cells from a current cell; measuring, by the user equipment, the one or more candidate cells when the user equipment is in a RRC_INACTIVE or RRC_IDLE state to obtain measurement results; and building up, by the user equipment, a connection with a desired cell instead of a resident cell to transit from the RRC_INACTIVE or RRC_IDLE state to a RRC_CONNECTED state after receiving a paging message, wherein the desired cell is selected by the user equipment from the one or more candidate cells based on the measurement results. The present disclosure also discloses a communication state transition apparatus.
