METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING NETWORK ACCESS IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A method and apparatus are provided for controlling network access in a wireless communication system. An infrastructure device, which may reside in, or be communicatively coupled to, any of an access network, a core network, and a service network, implements a device class prioritization control function (DCP-CF) that receives a geographical location of an incident, determines one or more of a cell and an access node corresponding to the geographical location, determines one or more access class barring parameters for the cell and/or access node, determines whether to enable access class barring at the cell and/or access node and, in response to determining to enable access class barring at the cell and/or access node, provides the one or more access class barring parameters to the cell and/or access node.

1. A method for controlling network access in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, at an infrastructure device, a geographical location of an incident; determining, by the infrastructure device, one or more of a cell and a corresponding access node corresponding to the geographical location; determining one or more access class barring parameters for the one or more of the cell and the corresponding access node; determining whether to enable access class barring at one or more of the cell and the corresponding access node; and in response to determining to enable access class barring at one or more of the cell and the corresponding access node, providing the one or more one or more access class barring parameters to the one or more of the cell and the corresponding access node.
