Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a security mode method in which a mobile station is capable of reducing the number of dropped calls even if non-integrity-protected layer 3 messages and integrity protection initiation messages are processed out-of-order. SOLUTION: The security mode method receives (210) a layer 3 message in a first domain from a network, determines (220) if the layer 3 message has integrity protection information, ascertains (240) if a security mode has been initiated in the first domain, and forwards (260) the layer 3 message to an upper layer, if the layer 3 message lacks integrity protection information and a security mode has not been initiated in the first domain even if security mode has been initiated in a second domain. This method allows the mobile station to process a non-integrity-protected layer 3 message from one domain even if integrity protection has been initiated in another domain.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a security mode method which allows a mobile station to reduce the cancel of calling even if an integrity-non-protected layer-3 message and an integrity protection initiation message are processed in a wrong order. SOLUTION: A security mode method includes: receiving (210) a layer-3 message in a first domain from a network; determining (220) if the layer-3 message has integrity protection information; ascertaining (240) if a security mode has been initiated in a first domain; and forwarding (260) the layer-3 message to an upper layer, if the layer-3 message lacks integrity protection information and the security mode has not been initiated in the first domain even if a security mode has been initiated in a second domain. This method allows a mobile station to process a non-integrity-protected layer-3 message from one domain even if integrity protection has been initiated in another domain.

Abstract:
A method in a wireless communication terminal (300) comprises initiating a first radio link control reset procedure, and receiving a message after initiating the radio link control reset procedure and before the radio link reset procedure is complete. The message contains an instruction to set a protocol data unit size. The method further comprises initiating a second radio link control reset procedure after setting the protocol data unit size.
Abstract:
A security mode method (200) receives (210) a layer 3 message in a first domain from a network, determines (220) if the layer 3 message has integrity protection information, ascertains (240) if a security mode has been initiated in the first domain, and forwards (260) the layer 3 message to an upper layer, if the layer 3 message lacks integrity protection information and a security mode has not been initiated in the first domain even if security mode has been initiated in a second domain. This method allows a mobile station to process a non-integrity-protected layer 3 message from one domain even if integrity protection has been initiated in another domain. When packet-switched and circuit-switched connections are being concurrently set up, a non-integrity-protected message in one domain may arrive at a mobile station after an integrity protection initiation message in another domain.
Abstract:
While engaged in a dedicated channel, a User Equipment (UE) may get stuck on it. A method and the computer program product detects whether the UE is stuck on the dedicated channel ( 202 ). When it is detected that the UE is stuck, the UE or the corresponding network in which the dedicated channel is located carries out a local release of the UE from the dedicated channel ( 204 ), and the UE is placed in idle mode ( 206 ). Locally releasing the UE from the dedicated channel curtails unnecessary battery consumption in the UE and limits wastage of network resources and bandwidth.

Abstract:
A method in a wireless communications device, including selecting (210) a cell, and after selection, configuring (230) the wireless communications device for a paging channel of a cell camped on previously using system information obtained for the cell camped on previously whether or not the selected cell is the same as the cell camped on previously. In some embodiments, updated system information is obtained for the selected cell if the selected cell is the same as the cell camped on previously, and the paging channel is reconfigured (250) based upon any updated system information obtained for the selected cell. In other embodiments, system information is obtained for the selected cell while the wireless communications device is configured for the paging channel of the cell camped on previously.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for interrupting a transmission of a multicast signal includes a common channel selector (106) coupled to a receiver (102) to receive common channel information (116) therefrom. A repetition value calculator (108) receives measurement occasion information (118) from the common channel selector (106) to calculate a repetition factor (120). A system frame number comparator (110) determines if a channel measurement occasion (128) should be performed based on the repetition factor (120), a common identifier (124) and a largest common channel transmission time interval (122). The method and apparatus further includes a measurement occasion generator (112) coupled to the system frame number comparator (110), wherein if a measurement occasion is to be performed, a measurement occasion command signal (126) is provided to the measurement occasion generator (112) and the measurement occasion generator generates the channel measurement occasion (128).
