METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING DISASTER ROAMING SERVICE IN WIRELESS NETWORK - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18260409 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING DISASTER ROAMING SERVICE IN WIRELESS NETWORK

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure describes a method and system for combining a 5G communication system with IoT technology to support higher data rates beyond 4G systems, specifically focusing on controlling disaster roaming services in a wireless network by User Equipment (UE).

  • Method for controlling disaster roaming service in a wireless network by UE:
   * Receiving a disaster roaming enabled indication from first or second PLMN associated with UE.
   * Detecting a disaster condition.
   * Determining if disaster roaming is disabled or enabled in UE based on the indication.
   * Enabling the disaster roaming service at UE and allowing UE to select the PLMN for using the service during the disaster condition if enabled.

Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5G communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4G system with a technology for IoT. Embodiments herein provide method for controlling disaster roaming service in a wireless network by UE. The method includes receiving a disaster roaming enabled indication from first PLMN or second PLMN associated with UE. Further, the method includes detecting a disaster condition. Further, the method includes determining whether the disaster roaming enabled indication indicates that a disaster roaming is disabled in UE or disaster roaming is enabled in UE. In an embodiment, the method includes enabling the disaster roaming service at UE and allowing UE to select the PLMN for using the disaster roaming service during the disaster condition in response to determining that disaster roaming is enabled in UE.
