## 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.

## Claims

### Claim 1

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).

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the voice service includes at least one of multimedia telephony (MMTEL) voice, voice over Internet protocol (IP), MMTEL service and an operator's service/application.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the information is received via system information.

### Claim 4

A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
a transceiver configured to transmit or receive a radio signal; and
a processor coupled to the transceiver,
wherein the processor is configured to:
control the transceiver to receive information on a specific value of a configurable establishment cause for a voice service from an evolved NodeB (eNB),
initiate the voice service,
control the transceiver to transmit a radio resource control (RRC) connection request message including the configurable establishment cause which is set to the specific value for the voice service to the eNB, and
control the transceiver to receive 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).

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The UE of claim 4, wherein the voice service includes at least one of multimedia telephony (MMTEL) voice, voice over Internet protocol (IP), MMTEL service and an operator's service/application.

### Claim 6 (depends on 4)

The UE of claim 4, wherein the information is received via system information.
