Abstract
A method of handling proximity service (ProSe) in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method includes transmitting, by a mobile device of the wireless communication system, a request message to one of the plurality Mobility Management Entities (MMEs) of the wireless communication system, for requesting a proximity service (ProSe) service; and indicating, by the one of the plurality of MMEs, to the mobile device a ProSe capability of a system network of the wireless communication system in an accept message.
Claims19
A method of handling proximity service (ProSe) in a wireless communication system, comprising:
- receiving, by a network entity of the wireless communication system, an attach request message or tracking area update (TAU) request message from a mobile device of the wireless communication system;
- and
- indicating, by the network entity, to the mobile device whether the network entity supports a ProSe capability in an attach accept message or TAU accept message.
A method of handling proximity service (ProSe) in a wireless communication system, comprising:
- receiving, by a mobile device of the wireless communication system, a system information from at least one base station of the wireless communication system, wherein the system information indicates whether the base station supports a ProSe capability;
- and
- selecting or reselecting, by the mobile device, a cell associated to the base station which supports the ProSe capability, wherein the mobile device is ProSe-enabled.
A method of handling proximity service (ProSe) in a wireless communication system, comprising:
- receiving, by a ProSe application server, an application user registration request from a ProSe application client in a ProSe-enabled mobile device, wherein the application user registration request comprises at least an application user identifier (ID) and an authentication information;
- and
- determining, by the ProSe application server, whether the application user registration is successful by checking whether the application user ID is subscribed for the ProSe service and the authentication information is valid.
