Abstract
A mobile communication device including a wireless transceiver and a controller is provided. The wireless transceiver performs wireless transmission and reception to and from a service network comprising a plurality of cells. The controller determines whether an Application-specific Congestion control for Data Communication (ACDC) has not been enabled in one of the cells according to system information broadcasted by the cells, and in response to the ACDC not having been enabled in one of the cells, select or reselect to the cell via the wireless transceiver even when the cell has a lower priority level than another cell in which the ACDC has been enabled.
Claims15
A mobile communication device, comprising:
- a wireless transceiver, configured to perform wireless transmission and reception to and from a service network comprising a plurality of cells;
- and
- a controller, configured to determine whether an Application-specific Congestion control for Data Communication (ACDC) has not been enabled in one of the cells according to system information broadcasted by the cells, and in response to the ACDC not having been enabled in one of the cells, select or reselect to the cell via the wireless transceiver even when the cell has a lower priority level than another cell in which the ACDC has been enabled.
A method for cell selection or reselection, executed by a mobile communication device wirelessly communicating with a service network comprising a plurality of cells, the method comprising:
- determining whether an Application-specific Congestion control for Data Communication (ACDC) has not been enabled in one of the cells according to system information broadcasted by the cells;
- and
- in response to the ACDC not having been enabled in one of the cells, selecting or reselecting to the cell even when the cell has a lower priority level than another cell in which the ACDC has been enabled.
A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising a computer program, which, when executed, causes a mobile communication device to perform a method for cell selection or reselection, wherein the method comprises:
- determining whether an Application-specific Congestion control for Data Communication (ACDC) has not been enabled in one of a plurality of cells according to system information broadcasted by the cells;
- and
- in response to the ACDC not having been enabled in one of the cells, selecting or reselecting to the cell even when the cell has a lower priority level than another cell in which the ACDC has been enabled.
