US 10,321,507 B2 · Method and apparatus for configuring cause value in wireless communication system

Abstract

A method is provided for transmitting, by a user equipment (UE), a connection request message in a wireless communication system. The UE receives a configuration of a specific value of a configurable establishment cause from a network, initiates a service whose type corresponds to the specific value, sets the configurable establishment cause to the specific value, transmits a radio resource control (RRC) connection request message including the configurable establishment cause which is set to the specific value to the network, and receives an RRC connection setup message from the network. The RRC connection setup message is determined to be transmitted, by the network, based on the configurable establishment cause set to the specific value, which indicates the type of the service, by the UE.

Dependent claims

A method for transmitting, by a user equipment (UE), a radio resource control (RRC) connection request message in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving information on a specific value of a configurable establishment cause for a voice service, from an evolved NodeB (eNB);
initiating the voice service;
transmitting the RRC connection request message including the configurable establishment cause which is set to the specific value for the voice service to the eNB;
and
receiving an RRC connection setup message from the eNB, if the RRC connection request message is accepted according to the configurable establishment cause set to the specific value for the voice service based on overload of a mobility management entity (MME).
