Methods and systems for manual mode search following a disaster condition
The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. Embodiments herein disclose methods and systems for providing services efficiently in a wireless communication network, following a disaster condition. According to various embodiments, a method performed by a user equipment (UE) connected to at least one public land mobile network (PLMN), the method comprising: identifying that a disaster condition is applied to the at least one PMLN; determining one or more PLMN among at least one available PLMN, and one or more registration type supported by the determined one or more PLMN, wherein the one or more registration type include information on a normal registration or information on a disaster roaming registration; and triggering a registration procedure based on the determined one or more registration type.
1. A method performed by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
identifying that a disaster condition is applied to a first public land mobile network (PLMN);
identifying a second PLMN among available PLMNs by a manual selection;
when that a value of a registration type for the second PLMN is included in a command for the manual selection and indicates a disaster roaming service, triggering a first registration procedure for the disaster roaming service;
when the value of the registration type for the second PLMN is included in the command for the manual selection and indicates a normal registration, triggering a second registration procedure for the normal registration; and
when the value of a registration type for the second PLMN is not included in the command for the manual selection, triggering the second registration procedure for the normal registration.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the available PLMNs include at least one of:
at least one PLMN that supports disaster roaming services;
at least one PLMN that does not support disaster roaming services;
at least one PLMN affected by the disaster condition; or
at least one PLMN providing disaster roaming services for each PLMN of the at least one PLMN affected by the disaster condition.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the normal registration includes at least one of:
an initial registration;
a mobility registration update;
a periodic registration update;
an emergency registration; or
a stand-alone non-public network (SNPN) onboarding registration.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein a disaster roaming registration includes at least one of:
a disaster roaming initial registration; or
a disaster roaming mobility registration update.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
when the first registration procedure for the disaster roaming service is performed, transmitting a registration request message including information on the registration type.
6. A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
a transceiver; and
a controller coupled with the transceiver and configured to:
identify that a disaster condition is applied to a first public land mobile network (PLMN),
identify a second PLMN among available PLMNs by a manual selection,
when a value of a registration type for the second PLMN is included in a command for the manual selection and indicates a disaster roaming service, trigger a first registration procedure for the disaster roaming service,
when the value of the registration type for the second PLMN is included in the command for the manual selection and indicates a normal registration, trigger a second registration procedure for the normal registration, and
when the value of a registration type for the second PLMN is not included in the command for the manual selection, trigger the second registration procedure for the normal registration.
7. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the available PLMNs include at least one of:
at least one PLMN that supports disaster roaming services;
at least one PLMN that does not support disaster roaming services;
at least one PLMN affected by the disaster condition; or
at least one PLMN providing disaster roaming services for each PLMN of the at least one PLMN affected by the disaster condition.
8. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the normal registration includes at least one of:
an initial registration;
a mobility registration update;
a periodic registration update;
an emergency registration; or
a stand-alone non-public network (SNPN) onboarding registration.
9. The UE of claim 6 , wherein a disaster roaming registration includes at least one of:
a disaster roaming initial registration; or
a disaster roaming mobility registration update.
10. The UE of claim 6 , the at least one processor controller is further configured to:
when the first registration procedure for the disaster roaming service is performed, transmit a registration request message including information on the registration type.
