Abstract:
A method to transmit information includes: obtaining, by a terminal in a disconnected state, information about a current coverage class of the terminal; and sending, by the terminal, a first message to an access network device, where the first message carries information about a coverage class of the terminal. The terminal in the disconnected state actively reports the information about the coverage class, so that a network device learns of the information about the coverage class of the terminal in a timely manner. In this way, during communication, a communication limitation or communication resource waste caused by inconsistency between information about a coverage class of the terminal that is stored on a network side and information about an actual coverage class can be avoided, and network resources can be fully used.

Claim (Index 16):
A core network device, comprising:\n a receiver, configured to receive a second message sent by an access network device, wherein the second message carries information about a coverage class of a terminal, and the information about the coverage class of the terminal comprises at least one of the following information:\n information indicating a change in the coverage class of the terminal, or \n information about a current coverage class of the terminal; and \n at least one processor, in communication with the receiver and configured to: determine, within a predetermined time that is after the receiver receives the second message, whether there is to-be-sent downlink data; and when there is to-be-sent downlink data, initiate setup of a transmission channel, and deliver the downlink data; or when there is no downlink data to arrive, initiate release or deactivation of a connection between the terminal and a network.
