Abstract
Processing of public warning notifications in a mobile communication terminal is disclosed, the terminal being camped on a cell belonging to a first public land mobile network, PLMN. A first warning notification is received, and information contained in the first warning notification is provided to a user of the mobile communication terminal. Radio reception conditions are analyzed and, depending on results of the analysis of radio reception conditions, a secondary public warning notification, SN, is received from a second PLMN. Information contained in the SN is then provided to the user of the mobile communication terminal.
Claims14
A method for processing public warning notifications in a mobile communication terminal, the terminal being camped on a cell belonging to a first public land mobile network (PLMN), the method comprising:
- while camped on the cell belonging to the first PLMN, receiving a first warning notification;
- providing information contained in the first warning notification to a user of the mobile communication terminal;
- analyzing radio reception conditions;
- depending on results of the analysis of radio reception conditions, while the terminal is still camped on the cell belonging to the first PLMN, receiving a secondary public warning notification (SN) from a second PLMN;
- and
- providing information contained in the SN to the user of the mobile communication terminal.
A mobile communication terminal, the terminal configured to be camped on a cell belonging to a first public land mobile network (PLMN), the terminal comprising:
- receiving means configured to receive a first warning notification while camped on the cell belonging to the first PLMN;
- output means configured to provide information contained in the first warning notification to a user of the mobile communication terminal;
- processing means configured to analyze radio reception conditions, and configured to, depending on results of the analysis of radio reception conditions, control the receiving means, while camped on the cell belonging to the first PLMN, to receive a secondary public warning notification (SN) from a second PLMN;
- and
- output means configured to provide information contained in the SN to the user of the mobile communication terminal.
A nontransitory processor-readable storage medium comprising software instructions that, when executed in a processor, cause the processor to perform a method for processing public warning notifications in a mobile communication terminal, the terminal being camped on a cell belonging to a first public land mobile network (PLMN), the method comprising:
- while camped on the cell belonging to the first PLMN, receiving a first warning notification;
- providing information contained in the first warning notification to a user of the mobile communication terminal;
- analyzing radio reception conditions;
- depending on results of the analysis of radio reception conditions, while the terminal is still camped on the cell belonging to the first PLMN, receiving a secondary public warning notification (SN) from a second PLMN;
- and
- providing information contained in the SN to the user of the mobile communication terminal.
