Mobile station, method for controlling mobile station, mobile communication system, mobility management apparatus, and computer-readable medium
In one embodiment, a mobile station ( 1 ) is capable of performing location registration procedures with first and second mobile management units ( 31 and 32 ) that respectively correspond to first and second RANs (Radio Access Networks). Further, the mobile station ( 1 ) supports ISR (Idle mode Signalling reduction) for reducing location registration procedures caused by reselection between the first RAN ( 21 ) and the second RAN ( 22 ). Furthermore, the mobile station ( 1 ) is configured to deactivate ISR in the mobile station ( 1 ) when voice service configuration information stored in the mobile station ( 1 ) is updated when the ISR is activated.
1. A mobile station comprising:
a transmitter configured to send an RAU (Routing Area Update) Request message;
a receiver configured to receive a RAU ACCEPT message in a case where the RAU Request message is accepted; and
a controller configured to set a TIN (Temporary Identity used in Next update) to “P-TMSI (Packet-Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity)” in a case where (1) the mobile station had initiated a routing area update procedure due to a change in a “UE's (User Equipment) usage setting” or a “Voice domain preference for E-UTRAN (Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network),” and (2) the RAU ACCEPT message contains an indication of ISR (Idle mode Signaling Reduction) being activated.
2. The mobile station according to claim 1 , wherein the processor configured to set the TIN to the “P-TMSI” in a case where (1) the mobile station had initiated the routing area update procedure due to the change in the “UE's usage setting” or the “Voice domain preference for E-UTRAN,” and (2) the RAU ACCEPT message contains the indication of ISR being activated, and (3) the TIN is not currently set to the “P-TMSI”.
3. The mobile station system according to claim 1 , wherein the processor configured to set the TIN to the “P-TMSI” in a case where (1) the mobile station had initiated the routing area update procedure due to the change in the “UE's usage setting” or the “Voice domain preference for E-UTRAN,” and (2) the RAU ACCEPT message contains the indication of ISR being activated, and (3) the TIN is currently set to RAT-related TMSI (Radio Access Technology related Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity).
4. The mobile station according to claim 1 , wherein the setting of the TIN to the “P-TMSI” identifies that the status of ISR activation in the mobile station is deactivated.
5. The mobile station according to claim 1 , wherein the “UE's usage setting” indicates whether the mobile station behaves in a voice centric or data centric way.
6. The mobile station according to claim 1 , wherein the “Voice domain preference for E-UTRAN” indicates whether the mobile station is configured as CS (Circuit Switched) Voice only, CS Voice preferred and IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) PS (Packet Switched) Voice as secondary, IMS PS Voice preferred and CS Voice as secondary, or IMS PS Voice only.
7. The mobile station according to claim 1 , wherein the RAU ACCEPT message corresponds to the routing area update procedure initiated by the mobile station.
8. A mobile station comprising:
a transmitter configured to send an TAU (Tracking Area Update) Request message;
a receiver configured to receive a TAU ACCEPT message in a case where the TAU Request message is accepted; and
a controller configured to set a TIN (Temporary Identity used in Next update) to “GUTI (Globally Unique Temporary Identifier)” in a case where (1) the mobile station had initiated a tracking area update procedure due to a change in a “UE's (User Equipment) usage setting” or a “Voice domain preference for E-UTRAN (Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network),” and (2) the TAU ACCEPT message contains an indication of ISR (Idle mode Signaling Reduction) being activated.
9. The mobile station according to claim 8 wherein the processor configured to set the TIN to the “GUTI” in a case where (1) the mobile station had initiated the tracking area update procedure due to the change in the “UE's usage setting” or the “Voice domain preference for E-UTRAN,” and (2) the TAU ACCEPT message contains the indication of ISR being activated, and (3) the TIN is not currently set to the “GUTI”.
10. The mobile station system according to claim 8 , wherein the processor configured to set the TIN to the “GUTI” in a case where (1) the mobile station had initiated the tracking area update procedure due to the change in the “UE's usage setting” or the “Voice domain preference for E-UTRAN,” and (2) the TAU ACCEPT message contains the indication of ISR being activated, and (3) the TIN is currently set to RAT-related TMSI (Radio Access Technology related Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity).
11. The mobile station according to claim 8 , wherein the setting of the TIN to the “GUTI” identifies that the status of ISR activation in the mobile station is deactivated.
12. The mobile station according to claim 8 , wherein the “UE's usage setting” indicates whether the mobile station behaves in a voice centric or data centric way.
