Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a method for a wireless communication system and a communication device thereof, and more particularly to a method for managing a unique cell selection in a wireless communication system and Its communication device. ° [Prior Art] Ο System Architecture Evolution (SAE) system, standardized by the 3rd Generation Mobile Communications Alliance (3GPP), is the new core of the Universal Mobile Telecommunications SyStem. The network architecture provides cost-effective deployment and operation for the public domain of the Internet Protocol (IntemetPr〇t〇c〇lp). The network evolution mainly includes meeting the wireless interface requirements of a long term evolution (LTE) system, simplifying the network structure, and all-IP networks (that is, all services are transmitted by packet switching, and no power is included) Wx and support for access gateways, mobile and service continuity in different areas, for example between 2G/3G, Long Term Evolution, and non-3Gpp access systems. The System Architecture Evolution System includes an Action Management Entity (M〇 Bility ManagementEntity (MME), a service gateway (SeryingGateway), and a public-funded if (PDNGateway). The line grammar entity-control plane single το' is used to manage network service attachment, client authentication, and coordinated evolution. The establishment of the wireless load associated with the wireless access network. ... The system architecture evolution system includes the non-access layer (N〇n_Aeeess_S_m, NAS) performed by the user in idle mode. Wei, Xiaohu and Ding The core of the 201014379 network through the evolution-based universal mobile communication system (E round (3) er ^, Ε-UTRAN) secret secret process to make the terminal and play The core network of the packet is not the 3GPP signaling process transmitted by the non-3GPP. The deployment of the non-accessible layer of 'cells' (HomeCdi) is defined as the use of a single base station for the construction of the m-lin group. Towels, such as - school wealth. _ cell access qualification limit specific to the user, the deployment of special cells, - Closed Subscriber Group (CSG) cells can be regarded as one of the types of special cells, It is a part of the public land mobile network (Public Land MobiieNetWOTk, p)LMN: ^. When the cell identification of the closed user group cell is stored in a whitelist of a client, the client can access the Closing the user group cells. In other words, the white list provides a plurality of cell identifications for the closed user group cells that are accessible, allowing the client to be allowed to reside within the service range of the closed user group cells provided by the whitelist. Said that the whitelist is determined by the public mobile network. In the current third-generation mobile communication alliance specification, it is not clear that the whitelist has at least one accessible CSG cell, but the client only looks for When a suitable large cell is not found and no CSG cells are found, the user should handle this situation. Therefore, the user cannot select a CSG cell for access, resulting in a decrease in communication quality. In addition, in terms of service provision, The service access fee of a CSG cell is lower than the service access fee of a large cell. Therefore, when the user selects a cell, the user will preferentially select a CSG cell. To save the user's service access fee, in a cell In the selection procedure, CSG cells should have a higher priority order than other cells, such as large cells. In a manual CSG cell selection function, the user can provide the user with a manual function 201014379 to initiate CSG cell search and select a CSG cell. Since the network wants the UE to select cells based on the results of a cell selection or cell reselection, the network may stop this manual function. However, current specifications do not provide a means to effectively control the initiation of the manual CSG cell selection function. On the other hand, a user may not normally initiate the manual CSG cell selection function. For example, in a manual CSG cell selection, the user selects a CSG cell that is not permitted to be accessed (e.g., one of the other users' proprietary base stations). When the client attempts to retrieve CSG cells that are not allowed, the specification provides a service request rejection procedure with a specific rejection reason value. However, the service request rejection procedure involves the client and the action management entity. The base station must establish a connection with the action management entity, and the action management entity needs to check whether the client side has effective access to the CSG cell. This method wastes the wireless resources and the network side in processing the program that the user terminal accesses incorrectly, thereby reducing the efficiency of the user accessing the CSG cells.
