With respect to the Pi wait period, should the home system be detected during wait period Pi, control flow ends with the re-acquisition of the home system in step 222.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé et un appareil destinés aux dispositifs en mode international pouvant gérer la sélection d'une technologie pour l'itinérance multimode entre des technologies d'accès existantes, ainsi que d'éventuelles technologies d'accès futures, et ce d'une manière qui permet à la fois de supprimer la recherche peu économique de systèmes inexistants et de réduire les frais engendrés par l'itinérance. Ledit procédé donne au dispositif la possibilité d'acquérir à nouveau son système de rattachement avant de rechercher des ressources de réseau d'itinérance disponibles, des priorités ayant été définies d'une manière qui réduit le coût de l'itinérance, économise l'énergie et préserve les délais d'acquisition grâce à la suppression de la recherche de types de systèmes inexistants. Une durée de hors service (OOS) minimale est imposée à un système de rattachement avant l'acquisition d'un partenaire d'itinérance afin de prolonger le temps dédié à la nouvelle acquisition du système de rattachement. La recherche et l'acquisition d'un partenaire préféré réduit les frais engendrés par l'itinérance, la recherche de systèmes inexistants étant totalement supprimée.
