PRIORITY BASED RESELECTION RULES FOR HANDLING NON-AUTHORIZED CELLS

摘要

A method for providing cell re-selection rules for handling non-authorized cells is described. The method includes identifying candidate cells including a first candidate cell and a second candidate cell. The method also includes determining whether a detected power level of the first candidate cell exceeds a first threshold value. Determining whether the priority of a frequency of the second candidate cell is lower than a priority of a frequency of a serving cell is included. Determining whether the mobile device is authorized to receive service from the first candidate cell in response to determining that the detected power level of the first candidate cell exceeds the first threshold value and that the priority of the frequency of the serving cell is higher than the priority of the frequency of the second candidate cell is included in the method. The method also includes, choosing the second candidate cell in response to determining that the mobile device is not authorized to receive service from the first candidate cell. Reselecting the mobile device to the second candidate cell is included. Apparatus and computer readable media are also disclosed.
