Abstract
In one exemplary embodiment of the invention, a method includes: detecting a local network access node; generating a measurement report based on the detected local network access node, where the measurement report is for transmission to a serving network access node; and in response to successfully reading system information for the detected local network access node, including in the generated measurement report information that uniquely identifies the detected local network access node.
Claims16
A method comprising:
- detecting, by a mobile terminal, a local network access node;
- generating a measurement report based on the detected local network access node, where the measurement report is for transmission to a serving network access node;
- and
- in response to successfully reading system information for the detected local network access node, including in the generated measurement report information that uniquely identifies the detected local network access node, where the information comprises a closed subscriber group identifier for the detected local network access node, and where in response to determining that the closed subscriber group identifier is in a closed subscriber group whitelist, including closed subscriber group member information in the generated measurement report, where an information element comprising a closed subscriber group member indication information element of the closed subscriber group member information is set to “member” to indicate that the closed subscriber group identifier for the detected local network access node is in the closed subscriber group whitelist.
A method comprising:
- detecting a local network access node;
- generating a measurement report based on the detected local network access node, where the measurement report is for transmission to a serving network access node;
- in response to determining that a closed subscriber group proximity indication for the detected local network access node has not been sent to a serving network access node, including a closed subscriber group proximity indication in the generated measurement report;
- else:
- in response to successfully reading system information for the detected local network access node, setting a closed subscriber group identity information element in the generated measurement report to uniquely identify the detected local network access node by indicating a closed subscriber group identifier for the detected local network access node,
- in response to determining that the closed subscriber group identifier is in a closed subscriber group whitelist, setting a closed subscriber group member indication information element in the generated measurement report to “member” in order to indicate that the closed subscriber group identifier for the detected local network access node is in the closed subscriber group whitelist, and
- in response to successfully or unsuccessfully reading the system information for the detected local network access node, including in the generated measurement report a primary scrambling code of the detected local network access node.
An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code being configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least:
- detect a local network access node;
- generate a measurement report based on the detected local network access node, where the measurement report is for transmission to a serving network access node;
- and
- in response to successfully reading system information for the detected local network access node, include in the generated measurement report information that uniquely identifies the detected local network access node, where the information comprises a closed subscriber group identifier for the detected local network access node, and where in response to determining that the closed subscriber group identifier is in a closed subscriber group whitelist, including closed subscriber group member information in the generated measurement report, where an information element comprising a closed subscriber group member indication information element of the closed subscriber group member information is set to “member” to indicate that the closed subscriber group identifier for the detected local network access node is in the closed subscriber group whitelist.
A non-transitory computer readable medium encoded with a computer program executable by a processor to perform actions comprising:
- detecting a local network access node;
- generating a measurement report based on the detected local network access node, where the measurement report is for transmission to a serving network access node;
- and
- in response to successfully reading system information for the detected local network access node, including in the generated measurement report information that uniquely identifies the detected local network access node, where the information comprises a closed subscriber group identifier for the detected local network access node, and where in response to determining that the closed subscriber group identifier is in a closed subscriber group whitelist, including closed subscriber group member information in the generated measurement report, where an information element comprising a closed subscriber group member indication information element of the closed subscriber group member information is set to “member” to indicate that the closed subscriber group identifier for the detected local network access node is in the closed subscriber group whitelist.
