Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for configuring a function of monitoring events concerning user equipment (UE) are provided. The method of a home subscriber server (HSS) includes receiving a first request message including monitoring event information from a service capability exposure function (SCEF), setting, if the monitoring event information is set to loss of connectivity, a mobility-related timer of a terminal to a value based on a value of a maximum detection time included in the first request message, and transmitting a second request message including the monitoring event information and the set mobility-related timer of the terminal to a mobility management entity.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for signal transmission and reception between a user equipment, a base station, and a server in a mobile communication system. The user equipment obtains control information related to traffic associated with the user equipment. The user equipment transmits a user plane message created based on the control information, to the server, via the base station.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses for remotely installing Universal Integrated Circuit Card (UICC) information about various Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) are provided. One of the apparatuses being a terminal including an electronic card, a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a signal, and a controller configured to receive at least one profile from a profile management server, wherein each profile of the received at least one profile is to be installed in an electronic card of at least one device, to obtain at least one electronic card identifier of the at least one device, and to transmit, to the at least one device, the at least one profile corresponding to the obtained at least one electronic card identifier.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for installing a profile in a terminal including a universal integrated circuit card (UICC) corresponding to a smart card security module, which is inserted into a mobile communication terminal and then used are provided. More particularly, a method and an apparatus for remotely installing or removing mobile communication subscriber information in/from a profile of a terminal are provided. The terminal can remotely download the profile from a network server (subscription manager data preparation (SM-DP) or subscription manager secure routing (SM-SR)) without any change in a mobile network operator information technology (IT) system interface rather than downloading the profile of the terminal by the network server.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for controlling the connection state of the UE is provided to minimize battery power consumption. A connection state control method of a terminal in a wireless communication system according to the present invention includes monitoring traffic transmission/reception condition associated with at least one application running on the terminal, determining whether traffic transmission/reception for the terminal is likely to occur based on the monitoring result, and transmitting, when no traffic transmission/reception for the terminal occurs, a Signaling Connection Release Indication (SCRI) message to a base station.
Abstract:
A method for managing congestion in a base station in a mobile communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises the steps of: requesting user subscription information to a mobility management entity (MME); receiving the user subscription information from the MME; and performing a congestion control in a communication between terminals on the basis of the received user subscription information. According to the embodiment, action may be taken in consideration of the user information and a current congestion state when controlling the congestion in a wireless communication system, and thus side effects resulting from the congestion control may be reduced. Further, the present invention provides a method and device for not charging for dropped packets when performing a packet drop, and thus the congestion control may be performed more easily. Also, the present invention has an advantage of performing the congestion control, according to the type of packets to which congestion control is applied or the type of application or service which has generated packets, at the time of controlling the congestion, thereby minimizing user's inconvenience due to the congestion control.
Abstract:
A method that connects a User Equipment (UE) to an Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) network through a web browser for a Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC) service is provided. The method, and a UE adapted to the method, downloads a web app for a WebRTC service and connects to an IMS network through a WebRTC client. The UE connects to the IMS network and is registered in the IMS network in such a way as to use a Universal Resource Locator (URL) of an enhanced Proxy-Call Session Control Function (eP-CSCF) obtained by establishing a Packet Data Network (PDN) connection of the UE through a web browser in the process of obtaining a URL of the eP-CSCF, or the obtained URL of an eP-CSCF to which the WebRTC client can connect by transmitting Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) information of a network to which the UE is connected to a WebRTC Web Server Function (WWSF). Therefore, the UE can easily use WebRTC services.
Abstract:
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.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for controlling congestion by an Evolved Node B (ENB) in a wireless communication system are provided. The method includes receiving a message including congestion notification required indication from a core network node of the wireless communication system, determining whether a congestion notification on the packet is required based on the congestion notification required indication and transmitting a data packet with the congestion notification according to a result of the determination.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus determining a policy by a Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF) is provided. The method of determining a policy by the PCRF includes receiving congestion status information of a network from a base station, transmitting the congestion status information to a content server, receiving a parameter for adjusting traffic transmission characteristics from the content server, and determining a policy related to traffic transmission based on the parameter.
