Method and device for controlling terminal connection state for providing ultra-low-latency location information service in wireless communication system

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A method of an access and mobility management function (AMF) of a wireless communication system according to one embodiment of the present disclosure is characterized by comprising the steps of: determining a connection mode of a terminal for a location information service of the terminal; transmitting, to a base station, a first message including at least one of information requesting activation of the connection mode and information on a time related to the connection mode; and receiving a second message including information on whether the connection mode is activated from the base station in response to the first message, wherein a timer value for maintaining a connection state of the terminal is configured to measure location information of the terminal on the basis of the at least one of the information requesting activation of the connection mode and the information on a time related to the connection mode.
