Abstract
A transceiver can transmit a broadcasted system information message including a restricted operator service access indication from a serving cell of a network. A controller can perform a radio resource control connection establishment procedure to receive an attach request message. The radio resource control connection establishment procedure can be for the restricted operator service access and can include receiving a RRCConnectionSetupComplete message from a mobile equipment to the network
Claims20
A network entity comprising:
- a transceiver that transmits a broadcasted system information message including a restricted operator service access indication from a serving cell of a network;
- and
- a controller coupled to the transceiver, where the controller performs a radio resource control connection establishment procedure to receive an attach request message, where the radio resource control connection establishment procedure is for the restricted operator service access, and where the radio resource control connection establishment procedure includes receiving a RRCConnectionSetupComplete message from a mobile equipment to the network,
- wherein the RRCConnectionSetupComplete message includes both a restricted operator service request and an attach request message including a restricted operator service attach type,
- wherein the RRCConnectionSetupComplete message is received in response to the mobile equipment receiving a user request for a restricted operator service, sending the restricted operator service access indication from an access stratum layer to a non-access stratum layer, and detecting restricted operator service access support is available in the serving cell based on the restricted operator service access indication.
A method comprising:
- transmitting a broadcasted system information message including a restricted operator service access indication from a serving cell of a network;
- and
- performing a radio resource control connection establishment procedure to receive an attach request message, where the radio resource control connection establishment procedure is for the restricted operator service access, and where the radio resource control connection establishment procedure includes receiving a RRCConnectionSetupComplete message from a mobile equipment to the network,
- wherein the RRCConnectionSetupComplete message includes both a restricted operator service request and an attach request message including a restricted operator service attach type,
- wherein the RRCConnectionSetupComplete message is received in response to the mobile equipment receiving a user request for a restricted operator service, sending the restricted operator service access indication from an access stratum layer to a non-access stratum layer, and detecting restricted operator service access support is available in the serving cell based on the restricted operator service access indication.
