1. A self-optimization network information transmission method for a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
receiving, by the UE, a configuration from a first base station, wherein the configuration comprises an indicator indicating to the UE whether to transmit self-optimization network information to the first base station in response to receiving a corresponding self-optimization network parameter from a second base station or in response to expiration of a timer included in the configuration;
receiving, by the UE, the self-optimization network parameter from the second base station via a broadcast channel of the second base station, wherein the self-optimization network parameter comprises at least one of a global cell identification of the second base station and a physical cell identification of the second base station received from the second base station via the broadcast channel of the second base station;
resuming or establishing a connection between the UE and the first base station;
determining, based at least in part the configuration from the first base station, whether to transmit self-optimization network information in response to receiving a corresponding self-optimization network parameter from the second base station or in response to expiration of a timer included in the configuration; and
transmitting via the connection, by the UE, the self-optimization network information to the first base station in a first early data transmission message, based on the configuration, in response to one of: receiving the self-optimization network parameter from the second base station or expiration of the timer;
wherein:
the configuration is for the UE to transmit the self-optimization network information by:
transmitting the self-optimization network information to the first base station after receiving the self-optimization network parameter from the second base station, wherein the self-optimization network information comprises the self-optimization network parameter of the second base station;
transmitting, in response to self-optimization network information corresponding to the self-optimization network parameter received via the broadcast channel being available or in response to expiration of the timer, the self-optimization network information to the first base station; and
transmitting a second early data transmission message to the first base station with a self-optimization network information available message embedded in the second early data transmission message, the second early data transmission message comprising a mobile-original early data transmission message,
transmitting the self-optimization network information further comprises:
transmitting the self-optimization network information to the first base station based on the configuration and the self-optimization network information available message.
