Abstract:
A method and an apparatus are provided for processing a Circuit-Switched (CS) call by User Equipment (UE) that is camped on a CSG cell, when a manually selected CSG cell is in a Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN), which is different from a Registered PLMN (RPLMN). The method includes registering, by the UE, with a manually selected Closed Subscriber Group (CSG) cell of a Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN), which is different from a Registered PLMN (RPLMN) of the UE; detecting the CS call; and processing the CS call in a non-CSG cell, when the manually selected CSG cell is unable to process the CS call.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus conduct remote communication with an electronic device in a communication network environment, with the method including receiving a short message (SM) including an AT command from a controlling electronic device, analyzing and parsing the AT command for determining at least one task to be performed at the electronic device upon detecting that the SM is for a control operation, and performing the at least one task.
