Abstract
Subscription-based information in a mobile telecommunications system is utilized to control idle mode operations of a mobile station. In one aspect, cell-related information is broadcast from cells. A mobile station then uses the received cell-related information to determine whether any given cell is part of a predefined service area that is reserved for use by only certain subscribers to the exclusion of other subscribers. The cell-related information may be a cell identifier that uniquely identifies a corresponding cell, or it may alternatively be a service area identifier that uniquely identifies a service area that comprises one or more cells. In either case, the mobile terminal makes its determination by accessing a memory such as a Subscriber Information Module (SIM), and retrieving therefrom stored information that defines the predefined service areas. In another aspect, the SIM may store information identifying preferred cells for the mobile station to camp on during idle mode.

A method for use in a communications system that is partitioned into a number of cells, comprising the steps of: broadcasting cell-related information from at least one of the cells, wherein for each cell, the cell-related information indicates whether that cell belongs to a part of the public land mobile network in which allowed access is controlled by subscription data; and in a mobile communication device, performing the steps of: receiving the cell-related information from at least one of the cells; and in response to the received cell-related information, determining whether the mobile communication device is permitted to camp on the at least one of the cells
13. The method of claim 12, wherein the step of determining whether the mobile communication device is permitted to camp on one of the cells comprises retrieving stored information about which of the cells may be camped on
14. The method of claim 13, wherein the mobile communication device further performs the steps of: detecting that the cell-related information indicates that the cell belongs to a part of the public land mobile network in which allowed access is controlled by subscription data; receiving cell barred information from the at least one of the cells; and ignoring the cell barred information if the determining means determines that the cell may be camped on and the cell-related information indicates that the cell belongs to a part of the public land mobile network in which allowed access is controlled by subscription data
15. A mobile communication device for use in a communication system that includes a public land mobile network and that is partitioned into a number of cells, the mobile communication device comprising: wireless means for communicating with the public land mobile network; and means for determining whether any of the cells is part of a predefined service area, wherein the mobile communication device is permitted to utilize cells in the predefined service area and wherein at least one other mobile communication device for use in the communication system is not permitted to utilize cells in the predefined service area
16. The mobile communication device of claim 15, wherein the means for determining whether any of the cells is part of a predefined service area comprises a memory device for storing information about which of the cells are part of the predefined service area
17. The mobile communication device of claim 16, further comprising: means for determining a list of suitable cells to be camped on; and means for selecting one of the suitable cells by giving higher priority to cells that are part of the predefined service area than to cells that are not part of the predefined service area
18. The mobile communication device of claim 17, wherein the means for determining whether any of the cells is part of a predefined service area further comprises means for receiving cell-related information on a radio control channel that is broadcast from one of the cells in the communication system
19. A method for use in a communications system that is partitioned into a number of cells, comprising the steps of: broadcasting cell-related information from at least one of the cells; and in a mobile communication device for use in the communications system, performing the steps of: receiving the cell-related information from at least one of the cells; and using the received cell-related information to determine whether said at least one of the cells is part of a predefined service area, wherein the mobile communication device is permitted to utilize cells in the predefined service area and wherein at least one other mobile communication device for use in the communication system is not permitted to utilize cells in the predefined service area.
