Abstract:
The present application provides a method for enabling a UE (User Equipment) detecting a proximity service to adjust the detection range. The method for adjusting the detection range includes the steps of: enabling the detecting UE having joined in the same group of the proximity service to compare the number of the UEs requiring a relay with a predetermined threshold value; enabling the detecting UE to decide whether to expand its detection range if the number of the UEs requiring a relay exceeds the predetermined threshold value; enabling the detecting UE to decide whether to reduce its detection range if the number of the UEs requiring a relay is less than the predetermined threshold value; and enabling the detecting UE to adjust the range class so as to expand or reduce the detection range.

A wireless communication system is disclosed. More particularly, access network selection scheme in visited network in a wireless communication system are disclosed. A method for selecting a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) access network by a user equipment (UE) in a visited network may comprise: determining, by the UE, if a selected WLAN access network in the visited network is available; updating, by the UE, a WLAN selection policy with a list of excluded WLAN access network, if the selected WLAN access network in the visited network is not available; and re-determining, by the UE, if there is an available WLAN access network in the visited network based on the updated WLAN selection policy.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for retransmitting an MTC group message in a wireless communication system are disclosed. A method for performing retransmission of a Machine Type Communication (MTC) group message by an MTC-InterWorking Function (MTC-IWF) in a mobile communication system includes: receiving an MTC group message response from a network node; and determining whether to perform retransmission of the MTC group message on the basis of information contained in the MTC group message response, wherein the MTC group message response includes zero or more region information of a predetermined unit, related to completion of the MTC group message transmission.
Abstract:
A wireless communication system is disclosed. More particularly, a control method and device based on multiple priorities in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method of controlling a back-off timer in a terminal configured with multiple priorities, which includes transmitting a first non-access stratum (NAS) request message set to a first priority level, starting the back-off timer configured by a network, and transmitting a second NAS request message, which is not set to the first priority level, while the back-off timer runs.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for determining a path switch in a wireless communication system. Specifically, the present invention relates to a method for determining a path switch of a first network entity, the method comprising the steps of: receiving bearer setup information including a bearer type regarding at least one bearer; transmitting a path switch request to a second network entity on the basis of the bearer setup information; receiving a path switch response corresponding to the path switch request from the second network entity; and determining a path switch depending on whether the path switch response indicates admission of a default bearer.
Abstract:
A method and a network node for supporting a connection between a User Equipment (UE) and a Machine Type Communication-interworking function (MTC-IWF) are discussed. The method according to an embodiment includes receiving, by the network node from the MTC-IWF, a mobile terminated (MT) message including a triggering payload by using a specific reference point; forwarding, by the network node to the UE, the trigger payload, if the trigger payload contains an application identifier which allows the network node and which distinguishes the MT message carrying device triggering information from any other type of MT message; and receiving a response message, which corresponds to the trigger payload, for initiating communication with the server, if the application identifier which allows the UE distinguishes the MT message carrying device triggering information from any other type of MT message.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a wireless communication system. More specifically, a repeater operation method and apparatus are disclosed. A method for supporting a repeater by a base station in a wireless communication system according to an embodiment of the present invention may include the steps of: determining whether a relay communication about a target user equipment (UE) is required; and transmitting the repeater activation message to one or more repeater candidates. The activation message may include one or more parameters among an activation cycle, location, or a signal strength threshold for the one or more repeater candidates. A repeater satisfying the condition given by the one or more parameters from among the one or more repeater candidates can be activated as a repeater for the target UE.
Abstract:
A method for supporting a voice service of a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system; and a Mobility Management Entity (MME) apparatus therefore. The method according to one embodiment includes transmitting an update location request (ULR) message to a home subscriber server (HSS); and transmitting a Notify Request message including a single radio voice call continuity (SRVCC) capability, when the MME determines that the SRVCC capability is changed. If the MME knows a homogeneity of support of an IMS voice over PS session in all TAs (Tracking areas) or all RAs (Routing Areas) related to the MME, the ULR message includes an information element. If the MME fails to know the homogeneity of support of the IMS voice over PS session due to a lack of information including Voice over IMS related capability information of the UE, the ULR message does not include the information element.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for managing a user equipment (UE), by a base station (eNodeB), in a wireless communication system supporting a proximity service (ProSe). More particularly, the method comprises the steps of: determining the connection state of a UE; and starting a radio resource control (RRC) inactivity timer when the connection state of the UE is idle, wherein the connection state is determined according to whether the UE performs infrastructure communication and whether the UE performs ProSe communication.
Abstract:
One embodiment provides a method for performing a mobility related procedure. The method may comprise: transmitting, by the UE configured with a 2nd/3rd generation mobile communication capability and 4th generation mobile communication capability, a mobility management request message to a first network entity in the 4th generation mobile communication network of a visited public land mobile network (VPLMN); receiving, by the UE and from the first network entity, a mobility management reject message including a rejecting cause value, a first timer and a second timer; if the rejecting cause value indicates that there is no suitable cell in the VPLMN, starting the first timer included in the mobility management reject message; if the first timer is expired, starting the second timer; and until the second timer is expired, disabling the 4th generation communication capability.
