Abstract

Des modes de réalisation de la présente demande concernent un procédé de transfert de cellule, un dispositif de réseau et un terminal. Le procédé de transfert de cellule peut consister : lorsqu'un transfert conditionnel est effectué, un second dispositif de réseau reçoit des informations d'éphémérides d'une première cellule satellite pendant une première période de temps envoyée par un premier dispositif de réseau ; et à déterminer une seconde période de temps à partir de la première période de temps et, ensuite, à envoyer des informations d'éphémérides de la première cellule satellite pendant la seconde période de temps à un terminal de telle sorte que le terminal exécute une opération d'accès de la première cellule satellite sur la base des informations d'éphémérides. Compte tenu de la situation dans laquelle la seconde période de temps déterminée par le terminal peut comprendre le temps pendant lequel le terminal effectue ensuite un transfert conditionnel, le terminal peut, par la suite, exécuter l'opération d'accès de la première cellule satellite sur la base des informations d'éphémérides obtenues pendant la seconde période de temps de telle sorte qu'un transfert de cellule satellite puisse être bien obtenu, et qu'ainsi le taux de réussite du transfert de cellule satellite soit amélioré dans une certaine mesure.
