State control method for non-access stratum of wireless network

In order to solve a problem that more signaling cost and power consumption are generated, wherein the problem is caused by needing to update periodical location areas of a present communication terminal, a state control method for non-access stratum is provided in the invention. In the method, the communication terminal is subject to connection and mobile management equipment by an access network. The non-access stratum of the communication terminal can be in a state of dormancy. In the state of dormancy, the communication terminal disconnects a connection with the access network, stops updating location areas periodically and can detect general page messages; and the non-access stratum of the management equipment can be in the state of dormancy. In the state of dormancy, the management equipment disconnects a connection with the access network, stops mobile reachability detection of the communication terminal, stores mobility management context of the communication terminal, obtains position of the communication terminal under resolution of the position areas and reserves paging resource of the communication terminal. According to the invention, the communication terminal is reduced, especially the signaling cost and the power consumption of MTC terminal are reduced.
