Abstract
A user equipment for alleviating barred access while reselecting from a first cell to a second cell in a mobile communication system is provided. A wireless module detects receives system information broadcasted in the first cell. A storage unit stores the system information. A controller reselects from the first cell to the second cell, determines whether a first barred access timer is running, and stops the first barred access timer and informs the upper layer of an RRC protocol that the access of the first service is allowed in response of that the first barred access timer is running.
Claims18
A user equipment for alleviating barred access while reselecting from a first cell to a second cell in a mobile communication system, comprising:
- a wireless module receiving system information broadcasted in the first cell;
- a storage unit storing the system information;
- and
- a controller configured to perform the following:
- reselecting the user equipment from the first cell to the second cell according to a reselection criterion based on signals from the first cell and the second cell received by the wireless module;
- determining whether a first barred access timer is running for indicating an access of a first service is barred in the first cell;
- and
- stopping the first barred access timer and informing upper layers of a radio resource control (RRC) protocol about the access of the first service is allowed in response of that the first barred access timer is running.
A method for a user equipment to alleviate barred access while reselecting from a first cell to a second cell in a mobile communication system, comprising:
- receiving system information broadcasted in the first cell;
- storing the system information in a storage unit;
- reselecting from the first cell to the second cell according to a reselection criterion based on signals from the first cell and the second cell;
- determining whether a first barred access timer is running for indicating an access of a first service is barred in the first cell;
- and
- stopping the first barred access timer and informing the upper layers of a radio resource control (RRC) protocol about the access of the first service is allowed, in response of that the first barred access timer is running.
