Method and apparatus for efficiently providing access control configuration information in next-generation wireless communication system
The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. The disclosure also relates to a method and an apparatus for configuring barring configuration information of a user equipment (UE). A method of a UE according to the disclosure comprises: receiving a system information block (SIB) including barring information per access category; identifying an access category relating to an access attempt; identifying an index included in barring information corresponding to the access category; and determining whether to bar the access attempt based on access control information indicated by the index.
1. A method performed by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving a system information block (SIB) including a list of barring configurations, each of the barring configurations including an access category and an indicator indicating one of barring information sets;
identifying an access category corresponding to an access attempt;
identifying barring information set indicated by an indicator corresponding to the identified access category; and
determining whether to bar the access attempt based on the barring information set.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the barring information set includes access identifier, a barring factor, and a barring time.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the access attempt is allowed in case that the access identifier is 0, and
the access attempt is allowed in case that the access identifier is not 0 and a random value is smaller than the barring factor.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein in case that the access attempt is barred, a new access attempt is barred based on the barring time.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the SIB includes a barring configuration per public land mobile network (PLMN).
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the list of barring configurations is configured for all PLMNs.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
transmitting a radio resource control (RRC) connection establishment message in case that the access attempt is allowed.
8. A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
a transceiver; and
a controller configured to:
receive a system information block (SIB) including a list of barring configurations, each of the barring configurations including an access category and an indicator indicating one of barring information sets,
identify an access category corresponding to an access attempt,
identify a barring information set indicated by an indicator corresponding to the identified access category, and
determine whether to bar the access attempt based on the barring information set.
9. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the barring information set includes an access identifier, a barring factor, and a barring time.
10. The UE of claim 9 ,
wherein the access attempt is allowed in case that the access identifier is 0, and
wherein the access attempt is allowed in case that the access identifier is not 0 and a random value is smaller than the barring factor.
11. The UE of claim 9 , wherein in case that the access attempt is barred, a new access attempt is barred based on the barring time.
12. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the SIB includes a barring configuration per public land mobile network (PLMN).
13. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the list of barring configurations is configured for all PLMNs.
14. The UE of claim 8 , wherein in case that the access attempt is allowed, the controller is configured to transmit a radio resource control (RRC) connection establishment message.
