20110143712 | Method and Arrangement in a Telecommunication System - Embodiments herein include methods and arrangements for controlling access of mobile devices to a network, such as GSM. The mobile devices belong to an access control class (ACC) and also belong to an additional access control class (EACC) that provides extended access control. The arrangement broadcasts system information to the mobile devices that comprises a first indicator indicating an ACC. The first indicator indicates whether a mobile device is allowed to access or is barred from accessing the network. The system information further comprises a second indicator indicating an EACC. The second indicator indicates whether a mobile device is allowed to access or is limited from accessing the network. Limited access may entail blocking a mobile device from initiating communications with the network, blocking the mobile device from receiving network initiated communications, or both. A mobile device blocked from network initiated communication may not answer a page from the network. | 06-16-2011 |

20130016602 | SIMPLIFIED SIGNALING FOR SMALL DATA TRANSMISSIONS - A signaling procedure for establishing and terminating connections for small data transmissions (SDTs) by wireless devices. A wireless device sends an access request message to a serving wireless access node on a random access channel (RACH). The access request message includes an indication that the access is for a SDT. The access request message includes the amount of data that will be transmitted as part of the SDT. The wireless access node sends an assignment message to immediately assign radio resources to the wireless device without further signaling needed for the SDT to begin. When the wireless device begins the SDT, the first data block is coded and transmitted according to a first predetermined coding scheme. If there are any subsequent data blocks, the wireless device includes an information element in the header of the first data block to indicate the coding scheme for the subsequent data blocks. | 01-17-2013 |

20140098771 | Method and Arrangement in a Telecommunication System - The invention relates to methods and arrangements for controlling access of a mobile device to a network, such as GSM. The mobile devices belong to an access control class (ACC) and for providing extended access control may also belong to an additional access control class (EACC). The arrangement broadcasts system information to the mobile devices, which system information indicates whether mobile device, which belong to an access control class (ACC), is allowed to access or are barred from accessing the network, and the system information further indicates whether the mobile device, which also belong to an extended access control class (EACC), is allowed to access or are limited from accessing the network. Different ways for limiting access is provided. An example is to block the mobile device from initiating communication, and allow the mobile device for communication initiated by the network. An example is to block the mobile device from communication initiated from the network, and allow the mobile for initiating communication. An example is to block the mobile device from initiating communication, as well as for communication initiated by the network. A mobile device blocked from network initiated communication is not allowed to answer a paging from the network. | 04-10-2014 |
20140135044 | Contacting a Group of Terminals Within a Wireless Communication Network - The present invention relates to the field of paging terminals within a communication network. In order to contact a group of terminals, a common group identification is allocated to each of the terminals within said group. Thereafter, a paging message is created comprising said common group identification. The paging message is then transmitted to all terminals within said group by a single paging operation. | 05-15-2014 |
20140146753 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR INFORMATION ABOUT PLMN ID - A mobile station for use in a Radio Access Network, RAN, connected to a core network in which there is one or more Public Land Mobile Networks, PLMNs. The mobile station is arranged to select one of said PLMNs, and is arranged to communicate with its RAN by means of Radio Link Control, RLC, data blocks. The mobile station is arranged to include the identity, ID, of its selected PLMN in an RLC data block, and to inform the RAN of the presence of the ID of the chosen PLMN in the RLC data block by means of including a reserved or pre-defined value in the length indication field of the RLC data block. | 05-29-2014 |
