The invention provides a tracking area dividing method and device based on the moving characteristics of user, and electronic equipment. The method comprises the steps: determining a transition pointand a stay point from user GPS points through a preset extraction method; determining the total number of tracking areas and the initial values of the coordinates of the centers of all tracking areasaccording to the transition point and the stay point; initializing a current distance weight and a current access frequency weight; executing the following clustering process: respectively calculatingthe similarity of all communities with the centers of the tracking areas according to correlated parameters and a preset similarity calculation formula, and classifying the communities into the tracking area with the highest similarity to the communities, and obtaining a current clustering result; returning to execute the clustering process if the current clustering result is not the same as a former clustering result; and taking the current clustering result as a dividing result of the tracking areas if the current clustering result is the same as the former clustering result. According to the invention, the divided tracking areas are higher in stability, thereby avoiding the frequent position update, and reducing the expenditure of the position management.
