Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to a method and an apparatus for searching an available system, and more specifically to a method and an apparatus for a wireless communication device for identifying a preferred system that is currently available.
- a cellular telephone or a mobile terminal, using the Code Division Multiple Access (“CDMA”) with a table called Preferred Roaming List (“PRL”). Based upon the information contained in the PRL, such as System Identification (“SID”) and Network Identification (“NID”), the cellular telephone determines the most appropriate network to register itself. Depending on the availability of systems and networks in the environment where the cellular telephone is located, the cellular telephone may receive a new PRL appropriate for the current environment of the cellular telephone over the air to replace the existing PRL.
- the cellular telephone supports tliree types of roaming indicators associated with the PRL, which help notify the user the roaming status of the cellular telephone in the current environment.
- the roaming status then indicates to the user that there may be a fee or different rate charged for making a call in the current area.
- the first type of the indicators may indicate that the cellular telephone is in a home network, i.e., not roaming, by having the roaming indicator light turned off;
- the second type of the indicators may indicate that the cellular telephone is in a preferred roaming network by having the roaming indicator light turned on;
- the third type of the indicators may indicate that the cellular telephone is in a non-preferred roaming network by having the roaming indicator light flashing.
- ERI enhanced roaming indicators
- WLAN wireless local area network
- AMPS Advanced Mobile Phone System
- GSM Global System for Mobile
- TDMA Time Division Multiple Access
- the multi-mode cellular telephone may first operate in a first mode such as CDMA in a first network such as its home network operated by System Provider A, and then may roam to a second network operated by System Provider B operating in a second mode such as TDMA.
- a first network such as its home network operated by System Provider A
- System Provider B operating in a second mode such as TDMA.
- Each system provider is likely to have its own agreement with other system providers such as a WLAN provider within its own service area, and is likely to have its own PRL.
- the first PRL provided by System Provider A to the multi-mode cellular telephone therefore is likely to be different from the PRL provided by System Provider B.
- the multi-mode cellular telephone roams and if the PRL of the multi-mode cellular telephone is replaced with a new and different PRL, the information associated with the ERI may not be correctly associated with the ERI of the new PRL.

- the wireless communication device may receive a new PRL, which may not be syncl ⁇ onized to the current ERI table already stored in the device, as the wireless communication device roams from one environment to the next.
- FIG. 1 is an exemplary environment where some aspects of the present inventions may be practiced.
- a multi-mode wireless communication device 102 When a multi-mode wireless communication device 102 initially located in a first region 104, which is supported by a first carrier ("Carrier A”) operating a first network 106, leaves the first region 104 and enters a second region 108 supported by a second carrier (“Carrier B") operating a second network 110, it may be necessary for the multi-mode wireless command device 102 to register and to operate in the second region 108.
- the first network 106 may be too far from the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 to effectively communicate
- the second network 110 may be compatible with the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 and better able to support continued communication.
- the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 may further choose to operate in a certain network over other available networks.
- the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 may choose to register and to operate in the second network 110 even though there is a third carrier ("Carrier C") in a third network 114 providing a better signal to the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 than the second network 110 in a third region.
- a home carrier of the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 may have different contracts with each of the Carriers A, B, and C, which may affect the fee charged for usage of the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 within each of the networks and may affect the order of preference regarding the choice of networks, or may limit the ability of the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 to operate in certain networks.
- the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 can refer to a preferred roaming list ("PRL"), preferably a multi-mode PRL including at least one of WLAN, AMPS, GSM, TDMA, or CDMA, and notify a user of a preferred available system or network.
- FIG. 2 is an exemplary representation of some of the information included in a PRL 200.
- the PRL includes system identifier information 202 such as System Identification (“SID”) and Network Identification (“NID”) for cellular telephone networks, and Service Set Identifier (“SSID”) for Wireless Local Area Network
- SID System Identification
- NID Network Identification
- SSID Service Set Identifier
- WLAN wireless local area network
- ERI enhanced roaming indicator
- the first network 106 has a NID of 1 and an ERI of 2
- the second network 110 has a NID of 2 and an ERI of 3
- the third network 114 has a SSID of 3 and an ERI of 1 , where a lower ERI represents a more preferred network.
- Carrier identity column 206 which may not be a part of the PRL, has been added for clarification for this example.
- FIG. 4 is an exemplary flow chart 400 describing a method in the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 for identifying a preferred system in accordance with the present invention. The process begins in block 402.
- the multi- mode wireless communication device 102 receives preferred roaming list information, such as but not limited to, a preferred roaming list ("PRL") including system identifier information, such as SID, NID, and SSID, and ERI.
- PRL preferred roaming list
- the ERI is also effective in informing the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 that the entries, or the functionality extension table information, are available.
- the received PRL is stored into the multi-mode wireless communication device 102, and then the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 transmits a request for functionality extension table information, which includes entries to the functionality extension table, associated with the ERI in block 408.
- the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 receives the functionality extension table information in block 410 in response to the transmitted request, and stores the received functionality extension table information in block 412. Based upon the system identifier information, such as SID, NID, and SSID, contained in the PRL, the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 identifies a currently available preferred system in block 414. The multi- mode wireless communication device 102 then conveys information indicative of the identified currently available preferred system based upon the functionality extension table information in block 416. As previously described, the ERI provides pointers to entries in a functionality extension table.
- the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 uses the SID, for example, of the identified currently available system to perform according to the entry in the functionality extension table referenced by the functionality extension table reference information associated with the identified currently available system.
- the conveyance of the information may be accomplished by displaying a text message, displaying a particular icon, flashing an indicator light, or by any other relevant method appropriate for the multi-mode wireless communication device 102.
- the process then terminates in block 418.
- the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 may receive the PRL in various ways.
- the PRL may be loaded into the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 in a factory where the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 is built, at a retail store where the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 is sold, or by an over-the-air ("OTA") programming while the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 is in operation.
- OTA over-the-air
- the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 determines whether the functionality extension table information is still synchronized with the new preferred roaming list information. If the functionality extension table information is no longer synchronized, then the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 may update the functionality extension table information.
- FIG. 5 is a first exemplary flow chart further describing block 414 in FIG.
- the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 scans for currently available systems, and obtains system identifiers of the currently available systems in block 504. From the currently available systems, the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 selects a system whose system identifier has the most preferred status found in the system identifier information of the PRL in block 506. Once the most preferred system is identified, a user of the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 may be given an option of whether to select the most preferred system for registering the multi- mode wireless communication device 102. Alternatively, the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 may automatically transmit a registration request to the most preferred system.
- FIG. 6 is a second exemplary flow chart further describing block 414 in FIG.
- the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 maps the functionality extension table information and system identifier information into a functionality extension table, thereby combining two sets of information previously stored separately into one table.
- the multi-mode wireless communication device 102 scans for currently available systems, and obtains system identifiers of the currently available systems in block 606.
