METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING HOME NODE-B IDENTIFICATION AND ACCESS RESTRICTION IN LTE NETWORK

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) (600) which include a universal subscriber identity module (USIM) (625), for identifying a closed subscriber group (CSG) cell.SOLUTION: A WTRU (600) receives a broadcast from a cell including a cell identifier (ID). If the cell ID is associated with a CSG cell, the WTRU (600) determines whether the CSG ID is programmed in a USIM (625). The cell broadcast may include a single bit information element (IE) indicating that the cell is a CSG cell.
