IPC Code(s): H04W48/12, H04B17/309, H04B17/318, H04W76/20

CPC Code(s): H04W48/12



Abstract: a radio terminal () determines whether access by the radio terminal () to a serving cell () is barred by comparing a radio state of the serving cell () with a radio state of a neighbor cell () in the same frequency band as the serving cell (). this can help, for example, to provide an appropriate access barring method for radio terminals located at cell boundaries between a serving cell and a neighbor cell that use the same frequency band.
