Abstract
Methods for cell access and devices are provided, which can efficiently control cell access of an internet of things (IoT)-type device. A method includes the following. A terminal device obtains first indication information. The terminal device determines, according to the first indication information, whether the terminal device is allowed to access a cell, where the terminal device is an IoT-type device.
Claims9
A method for cell access, comprising:
- obtaining, by a terminal device, first indication information and second indication information from a network device, the first indication information being indicative of whether an internet of things-type (IoT-type) device is allowed to access a cell, the second indication information being indicative of whether a non-IoT-type device is allowed to access the cell;
- determining, by the terminal device, a type of the terminal device, wherein the type of the terminal device is one of IoT-type and non-IoT type;
- determining, by the terminal device, according to the first indication information whether the terminal device is allowed to access the cell, when the type of the terminal device is the IoT-type device, and determining, by the terminal device, according to the second indication information, whether the terminal device is allowed to access the cell, when the type of the terminal device is non-IoT type;
- wherein the first indication information is carried in a system information block (SIB) and the second indication information is carried in a master information block (MIB).

A method for cell access, comprising:
- transmitting, by a network device, first indication information, wherein the first indication information is indicative of whether an internet of things-type (IoT-type) device is allowed to access a cell;
- and
- transmitting, by the network device, second indication information, wherein the second indication information is indicative of whether a non-IoT-type device is allowed to access the cell;
- wherein the first indication information is carried in a system information block (SIB) and the second indication information is carried in a master information block (MIB).
1 more element
A terminal device, comprising:
- a transceiver;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory configured to store computer programs which, when executed by the processor, are operable with the processor to:
- cause the transceiver to receive first indication information and second indication information from a network device, the first indication information being indicative of whether an internet of things-type (IoT-type) IoT-type device is allowed to access a cell, the second indication information being indicative whether a non-IoT-type device is allowed to access the cell;
- determine a type of the terminal device, wherein the type of the terminal device is one of IoT-type and non-IoT type;
- and
- determine, according to the first indication information, whether the terminal device is allowed to access the cell, when the type of the terminal device is the IoT-type device, and determine, according to the second indication information, whether the terminal device is allowed to access the cell, when the type of the terminal device is non-IoT type;
- wherein the first indication information is carried in a system information block (SIB) and the second indication information is carried in a master information block (MIB).
