Abstract
The present invention discloses a method, an apparatus, and a system for minimization of drive tests, and relates to the field of communications technologies. In the technical solutions, by obtaining a mapping relationship between a TCE address and a TCE identifier, and according to a TCE identifier included in the MDT report reported by the UE, a corresponding TCE address is obtained and the MDT report is sent to a TCE corresponding to the TCE address. And it is unnecessary to send an actual TCE network address to the user equipment, which improves security and solves the insecurity problem of the MDT measurement. The present invention is simple, convenient and easy to implement, and reduces the complexity of network signaling interaction and network processing.
