20140204929 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING WIRELESS LAN ACCESS POINT SELECTION OF USER EQUIPMENT IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - Methods and apparatus are provided for controlling Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) selection in a wireless communication system. Information on a limitation of managed objects, indicating whether to allow reception of a WLAN selection policy from a roaming network, is received. It is determined whether a User Equipment (UE) exists in the roaming network. It is determined whether to receive the WLAN selection policy from the roaming network based on the information on the limitation of the managed objects, when the UE exists in the roaming network. The WLAN selection policy is received from the roaming network, when it is determined that the WLAN selection policy is to be received from the roaming network. A WLAN is selected according to a policy set for the UE, when it is determined that the WLAN selection policy is not to be received from the roaming network. | 07-24-2014 |
20140308955 | RESOURCE MANAGEMENT METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR USE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A resource management method and apparatus allows or restricts use of some or all of the resources of entities of a wireless communication system. A radio resource management method of a radio access point includes receiving a measurement report from a terminal, selecting another radio access point for serving the terminal in cooperation with the serving radio access point based on the measurement report and a Handover Restriction List (HRL), and transmitting a request for serving the terminal to the selected another radio access point. | 10-16-2014 |
20140348064 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SELECTING CELL IN MOBILE COMMUNICATION NETWORK - Methods and apparatuses are provided for selecting a cell in a mobile communication network for a network access of a terminal and a position update. A method includes receiving a first message from a network; determining whether a cell, which the terminal accesses, supports Circuit Switched FallBack (CSFB), based on the first message; and determining whether to select the cell, based on whether the cell supports the CSFB. | 11-27-2014 |
20150117411 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING WLAN - A method of supporting handover of a terminal by a mobility management entity (MME) of a mobile communication system is provided. The method includes receiving, from a base station, a first message for handover to another network. The first message includes information on a cell to which the terminal is handed over. The method also includes transmitting, to a server, a second message for reporting information related to a location of the terminal and for providing a location continuity based on the first message. A terminal having both a 3GPP communication function and a WiFi function automatically switches on and off a WLAN according to a location, setting, or a pattern of a user, thereby preventing unnecessary battery consumption or performance deterioration and searching for an available WLAN in advance to access the WLAN. | 04-30-2015 |
20150237544 | VIDEO TELEPHONY SERVICE QUALITY ENHANCEMENT METHOD AND APPARATUS - A communication method and apparatus is provided for enhancing video telephony service quality by protecting against call setup failure or service quality degradation caused due to switching of the User Equipment (UE) to a network which does not fulfill the data rate required for video telephony in the video call setup process. The communication method of a terminal in a mobile communication system according to the present disclosure includes transmitting a video telephony call setup request message, receiving a switching command for Circuit Switched Fall Back (CSFB), and setting, if the switching command includes a target cell type set to the 2nd Generation (2G) cell and if a 3rd Generation (3G) cell to which the terminal can access exists, up the video telephony call by switching a connection to the 3G cell. | 08-20-2015 |
20150382178 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SELECTING PROFILE OF TERMINAL IN MOBILE NETWORK - A method and apparatus of selecting profiles is provided that provides communication services of a terminal equipped with embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card (eUICC) (or embedded Subscriber Identity Module (eSIM)) and Universal Integrated Circuit Card (UICC). The method of selecting a profile in a terminal including a plurality of subscriber identity module (SIMs) that differ from each other in type, includes selecting, when sensing a profile changing event, one of the plurality of SIMs according to a preset rule, selecting one of a plurality of profiles stored in the plurality of SIMs, and applying the selected profile to the terminal. | 12-31-2015 |
20160007242 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SELECTING CELL IN MOBILE COMMUNICATION NETWORK - Methods and apparatuses are provided for communicating by a mobility management entity (MME) in a mobile communication system. A method includes receiving, from a target base station, a first message including a first network identification of a target node, in a connected state of a terminal; determining whether the first network identification differs from a second network identification of a source node, in an idle state of the terminal; and transmitting to the source node a second message requesting disconnection, if the first network identification differs from the second network identification of the source node. | 01-07-2016 |
