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.

Claim
1. A method of reestablishing a radio resource control (RRC) connection, the method performed by a wireless mobile device configured to communicate wirelessly with a Long Term Evolution (LTE) or a Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) network employing a wireless communications protocol, the wireless mobile device comprising a processor, a radio, and a memory, the method comprising:
establishing an RRC connection with a first acceptable cell of an LTE or UMTS network, wherein the first acceptable cell supports emergency calls;
establishing an emergency call via the RRC connection;
detecting a failure condition in the RRC connection, wherein the failure condition is one of a radio link failure, a handover failure, a mobility from Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA) failure, an integrity check failure, or an RRC connection reconfiguration failure;
searching for a second acceptable cell that is identified as able to support emergency calls and that belongs to a PLMN that the first acceptable cell also belongs to;
when a second acceptable cell is detected that is identified as able to support emergency calls and that belongs to a PLMN that the first acceptable cell also belongs to:
