Rather, the mobile device sends an RRC reestablishment request to the acceptable cell if it is detected.

Abstract
A mobile device initiates an RRC connection reestablishment procedure or a cell update procedure for an emergency call after experiencing a failure condition in an LTE network environment. The mobile device establishes an RRC connection with an acceptable cell to originate an emergency call. The mobile device detects a failure condition, such as a radio link failure, which disrupts the RRC connection. The mobile device searches for available cells that it may reestablish the RRC connection with, but can only find acceptable cells. The mobile device may initiate an RRC connection reestablishment procedure with an acceptable cell. The mobile device may also only attempt to reestablish the RRC connection with a cell that is part of a PLMN that the original acceptable cell was also a part of. The mobile device may also enter an RRC_IDLE mode upon detecting a failure condition.
Description
- This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/258,214 filed on Nov. 5, 2009 and titled METHOD TO HANDLE RRC CONNECTION RECOVERY IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- In an emergency, a person's mobile device (i.e., user equipment (UE)) is often his or her lifeline for help. This dependence makes it crucial that the mobile device be able to establish emergency calls (e.g., to 9-1-1) whenever necessary. To this end, mobile devices are generally allowed to establish emergency calls through cells of wireless networks that they are not authorized to use for normal service.
- In a Long Term Evolution (LTE) or Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) radio network, a mobile device establishes a radio resource control (RRC) connection through a cell to use network services. The mobile device can camp on a suitable cell to obtain normal service. The mobile device can camp on an acceptable cell only to originate emergency calls (e.g., a circuit switched (CS) or an Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) emergency call) and receive Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System (ETWS) and Commercial Mobile Alert System (CMAS) notifications. As a result, a mobile device establishes an emergency call through either a suitable cell or an acceptable cell.
- Like any other call, emergency calls can be disrupted by failure conditions that interrupt the RRC connection. Failure conditions may include radio link failures, handover failures, mobility from evolved Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) Terrestrial Radio Access (e-UTRA) failures, integrity check failures, RRC connection reconfiguration failures, or other failures. To continue the emergency call after a failure condition, the mobile device can perform an RRC connection reestablishment procedure in an LTE network or a cell update procedure in a UMTS network. Existing mobile devices operating in an LTE or UMTS network with an established emergency call via an RRC connection often struggle to reestablish the RRC connection once it experiences a failure condition.

FIG. 6 is a flow diagram depicting an example of a routine to reestablish an RRC connection for an emergency call after a failure condition is detected. - The present disclosure is directed to reestablishing an RRC connection that was established for an emergency call in an LTE or a UMTS network environment. As discussed below, the mobile device initiates an RRC connection reestablishment procedure or a cell update procedure when it detects a failure condition, such as a radio link failure, a handover failure, etc. Although embodiments of the disclosure discuss the reestablishment of an RRC connection with respect to an RRC connection reestablishment procedure, it will be appreciated that in a UMTS network environment, a cell update procedure may be used.
- In some implementations, the mobile device has an emergency call connected via an RRC connection established with an acceptable cell. The mobile device detects a failure condition and searches for available cells with which to reestablish the RRC connection. If a suitable cell is detected, the mobile device commences an RRC reestablishment procedure with the suitable cell. If no suitable cell is found, but the mobile device detects an acceptable cell, the mobile device initiates an RRC reestablishment procedure with a detected acceptable cell. In some implementations, the mobile device initiates an RRC connection reestablishment procedure with an acceptable cell regardless of whether it also finds a suitable cell.
- In some implementations, the mobile device has an emergency call connected via an RRC connection established with an acceptable cell. The mobile device detects a failure condition and immediately enters an RRC_IDLE state. The mobile device does not initiate an RRC connection reestablishment procedure. Instead, the mobile device can originate another emergency call without having to wait for a timer (T311 in e-UTRAN or T305 in UTRAN) to expire while it searches for a suitable cell to connect with.
- In some implementations, the mobile device has an emergency call connected via an RRC connection established with an acceptable cell. The mobile device detects a failure condition and searches for available cells with which it can commence an RRC connection reestablishment procedure. If the mobile device finds a cell that belongs to a public land mobile network (PLMN) that the original acceptable cell belongs to, the mobile device initiates an RRC connection reestablishment procedure with that cell. In some implementations, if the mobile device finds a suitable cell that does not belong to a PLMN that the original acceptable cell belongs to, the mobile device enters an RRC_IDLE mode and subsequently requests that a new RRC connection be established with the suitable cell.
- In some implementations, the mobile device has an emergency call connected via an RRC connection established with a cell.

Thepower supply 217 may further include an external power source, such as an AC adapter or a powered docking cradle for supplementing or recharging the batteries. Of course, other power supplies may be employed, such as solar cells, transducers for generating electricity for motion, fuel cells, bioelectric or temperature transducers designed to generate electricity and store it in a rechargeable battery/capacitor, and so forth. - While various components, features, and functions of the
mobile device FIG. 2 , it should be understood that numerous other configurations, components, features, and the like may be incorporated into the mobile devices described herein, and that the implementations described herein are not limited to any particular configuration for the mobile devices. - In an LTE or UMTS network environment, a mobile device establishes an RRC connection with an acceptable cell or a suitable cell for an emergency call. If a failure condition disrupts the RRC connection, the emergency call will be terminated. In order to continue the emergency call after a failure condition, the mobile device can reestablish the RRC connection. However, existing mobile devices operating in an LTE network may not be able to recover the RRC connection for a variety of reasons. The following example scenarios illustrate typical problems.
- (1) A mobile device detects a failure condition during an emergency call established through a first acceptable cell. The mobile device cannot reestablish an RRC connection in an LTE or UMTS network environment if it can only find the first acceptable cell or a second acceptable cell to connect to. Instead, the mobile device searches for a suitable cell to connect to.
- (2) A mobile device detects a failure condition during an emergency call established through a first acceptable cell. As in the previous scenario, the mobile device can only find the first acceptable cell and/or a second acceptable cell to connect to. The mobile device searches for a suitable cell until a timer (e.g., T311 or T305) expires. The mobile device cannot establish a new emergency call while the timer is running.
- (3) A mobile device detects a failure condition during an emergency call established through an acceptable cell. The mobile device searches for and finds a suitable cell to connect to and attempts to reestablish the RRC connection with the suitable cell. If the suitable cell and the acceptable cell that the emergency call was established through belong to different PLMNs, the reestablishment procedure can fail.
- (4) A mobile device detects a failure condition during an emergency call. It searches for and finds a suitable cell and reestablishes an RRC connection through that suitable cell. However, if the suitable cell does not support emergency calls, the mobile device may nevertheless remain camped on the suitable cell, unable to end the failed emergency call.
- In the first scenario, the mobile device has an RRC connection established with an acceptable cell and experiences a failure event (e.g., a radio link failure, a handover failure, etc.), and finds only the acceptable cell or another acceptable cell available for reestablishing the RRC connection with.
FIG. 3 is a flow diagram depicting an example of a routine 300 performed by themobile device - At a
block 305, themobile device - At a
decision block 310, the mobile device determines whether it has detected a failure condition that disrupts the RRC connection, and hence, the emergency call. If the mobile device has not detected a failure condition, the process returns to block 305. If the mobile device has detected a failure condition, at ablock 312, the mobile device searches for a cell with which to reestablish the RRC connection. For example, the mobile device may search for a cell by detecting and analyzing radio signals broadcast by cells within a certain vicinity of the mobile device. - At a
decision block 315, the mobile device determines whether it detected a suitable cell. The mobile device can determine whether a detected cell is a suitable cell or an acceptable cell by analyzing radio signals sent by the detected cell, which identify the cell and/or the services that it offers for the mobile device. If the mobile device did detect a suitable cell, at ablock 320, the mobile device sends a request to the suitable cell to reestablish the RRC connection. The mobile device may send an RRCConnection-ReestablishmentRequest message to a detected suitable cell to attempt to reestablish the RRC connection with the suitable cell. After sending the reestablishment request to the suitable cell, the mobile device executes an RRC connection reestablishment procedure with the suitable cell. - If at
decision block 315 the mobile device did not detect a suitable cell, at adecision block 325, the mobile device determines whether it detected an acceptable cell. If it does not detect an acceptable cell, the routine 300 ends. If atblock 325, the mobile device determines that it did detect an acceptable cell, at ablock 330, the mobile device sends a request to a detected acceptable cell to reestablish the RRC connection. As mentioned before, this may be the acceptable cell that the mobile device originally established an RRC connection with. After requesting that the RRC connection be reestablished, the mobile device executes an RRC connection reestablishment procedure or a cell update procedure through the acceptable cell. - In practice, the mobile device treats the acceptable cell as if it were a suitable cell. Existing mobile devices would continue searching for a suitable cell despite an apparent emergency situation and an available acceptable cell. In some implementations, the mobile device does not decide whether a suitable cell is available first before sending an RRC reestablishment request to an acceptable cell. Rather, the mobile device sends an RRC reestablishment request to the acceptable cell if it is detected. In some implementations, the mobile device sends an RRC reestablishment request to an acceptable cell despite also finding a suitable cell. In some implementations, the mobile device receives system information from at least one of the found cells, and the system information indicates that the cell supports emergency calls. Consequently, the mobile device sends the RRC connection reestablishment request to the cell that supports emergency calls. In some implementations, the acceptable cell that the RRC connection was originally established with and the acceptable cell that the RRC connection is reestablished with belong to a same PLMN. In some implementations, the acceptable cells each belong to one PLMN, and in other implementations, at least one of the acceptable cells belongs to multiple PLMNs. When the acceptable cells belong to multiple PLMNs, the mobile device may be configured to only attempt to reestablish the RRC connection with an acceptable cell that belongs to a PLMN that the original acceptable cell belongs to.

FIG. 4 is a flow diagram depicting an example of a routine 400 performed by themobile device block 405, themobile device decision block 410, the mobile device determines whether it has detected a failure condition. If the mobile device has not detected a failure condition, the process returns to block 405. If the mobile device has detected a failure condition, at ablock 415, the mobile device enters an RRC_IDLE state. Entering the RRC_IDLE state allows the mobile device to originate a subsequent emergency call without having to wait for a timer (e.g., T311 or T305) to expire. This can be important in an emergency situation, when it is more likely that time is of the essence. After entering the RRC_IDLE state, the mobile device does not initiate an RRC connection reestablishment procedure. At ablock 420, the mobile device searches for a cell (acceptable or suitable) to establish a new RRC connection with. At adecision block 425, the mobile device determines whether a cell was found (acceptable or suitable). If no cell was found, theprocess 400 ends. If a cell was found, at ablock 430, themobile device block 420. Once the RRC connection is established, the mobile device can originate an emergency call. In some implementations, the mobile device originates an emergency call immediately upon establishing an RRC connection. -
FIG. 5 is a flow diagram depicting an example of a routine 500 performed by themobile device block 505, themobile device decision block 510, the mobile device determines whether it has detected a failure condition. If the mobile device has not detected a failure condition, the process returns to block 505. If the mobile device has detected a failure condition, at ablock 515, the mobile device searches for a cell that belongs to a PLMN that the acceptable cell that the RRC connection was previously established with belongs to. The mobile device can search for such a cell by analyzing radio signals sent by proximate cells. For example, cells can broadcast which PLMN they belong to, or the mobile device can request this information from detected cells. - At
decision block 520, the mobile device determines whether a cell was found that belongs to a PLMN that the original cell also belongs to. If no such cell was found, at adecision block 525, the mobile device determines whether a suitable cell was found that does not belong to a PLMN that the original cell belongs to. If such a cell was found, at ablock 530, the mobile device enters an RRC_IDLE mode and subsequently sends a request to the suitable cell to establish an RRC connection with the cell, which is then established with the cell. If no suitable cell was found, at ablock 535, the mobile device continues to search for an acceptable cell or a suitable cell that it can establish the RRC connection with until a timer (e.g., timer T311) expires. In some implementations, the mobile device may not reestablish an RRC connection with an acceptable cell that does not belong to a PLMN that the original cell belongs to. - If at a
decision block 520, the mobile device determines that a cell was found that belongs to the same PLMN as the original cell, at ablock 540, the mobile device sends a request to reestablish the RRC connection to that cell. The cell can be either an acceptable cell or a suitable cell. The request to reestablish the RRC connection can commence, for example, an RRC connection reestablishment procedure or a cell update procedure. In some implementations, the mobile device selects a cell to reestablish the RRC connection with because the cell supports emergency calls. For example, a cell may send signals to the mobile device indicating its ability to support emergency calls, and the mobile device selects the cell at least in part because it supports emergency calls. -
FIG. 6 is a flow diagram depicting an example of a routine 600 performed by themobile device block 605, themobile device decision block 610, the mobile device determines whether it has detected a failure condition. - If the mobile device has not detected a failure condition, the process returns to block 605. If the mobile device has detected a failure condition, at a
block 615 the mobile device searches for a cell that supports emergency calls that it can establish an RRC connection with. For example, the mobile device can search for such cells by analyzing radio signals sent by proximate cells. - At a
decision block 620, the mobile device determines whether it has found a cell that supports emergency calls. The mobile device can determine whether a cell supports emergency calls using the signals sent to the mobile device by the proximate cells and/or by examining data related to the cell, such as its system information. If the mobile device does not find a cell that supports emergency calls, the routine 600 ends. If the mobile device does find a cell that supports emergency calls, at ablock 625, the mobile device sends a request to reestablish the RRC connection to that cell, initiating an RRC connection reestablishment procedure or a cell update procedure. - Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, throughout the description and the claims, the words “comprise,” “comprising,” and the like are to be construed in an inclusive sense, as opposed to an exclusive or exhaustive sense; that is to say, in the sense of “including, but not limited to.” As used herein, the terms “connected,” “coupled,” or any variant thereof mean any connection or coupling, either direct or indirect, between two or more elements; the coupling or connection between the elements can be physical, logical, or a combination thereof.
