Method for reconnection of a radiocommunication terminal to a network and corresponding terminal

摘要

The procedure comprises a stage of periodic scanning of frequencies of the radio communication network using a predetermined sequence. The sequence of frequencies is associated with a list which is determined in advance prior to the loss of signal, facilitating reconnection when reception is restored. The procedure provides reconnection of a terminal to a radio communication network when the terminal goes into standby mode as a result of the temporary non-availability of the network signal. The procedure comprises a stage of periodic scanning of frequencies of the radio communication network using a predetermined sequence. The sequence of frequencies is associated with a list which is determined in advance whilst reception was active. The sequence may be fixed or variable, and may be held in memory. The frequencies and their relative strengths are determined prior to the loss of signal, and the scanning which is effected is dependent on whether the signal strengths exceed a certain threshold.
