APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CELL SEARCH IN MULTI-TIER COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS

摘要

PURPOSE: A device for providing information of a femto base station is provided to reduce a search amount in searching a femto cell of a terminal in a poly-hierarchy communication system. CONSTITUTION: A transceiver(310) has a function performing communication with a macro BS and a femto base station. A message processor(320) is connected to transceiver. The message processor processes a message. A storage(330) is connected to the message processor. The storage stores a white list(340) including at CSGID values related to one or more CSG(Closed Subscriber Group)s. A terminal(116) is subscribed to one or more CSGs.
