Abstract

A method of receiving a warning message in a mobile communication system. The method includes receiving a paging message from a network, wherein the paging message includes information related to the warning message. The information is a warning message indication representing a presence of the warning message. The warning message is an Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System (ETWS) message. If the warning message indication is included in the received paging message, the method includes receiving the warning message through a downlink channel according to scheduling information contained in a system information block (SIB).

Claims (28)

1. A method of receiving a warning message in mobile communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, at a terminal in an idle mode, a paging message from a network, the paging message including a warning message indication,

wherein the paging message is used to inform the terminal in the idle mode of a presence of the warning message,

wherein the warning message is an Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System (ETWS) message, and

wherein the warning message indication indicates that there will be a transmission of the warning message through a downlink shared channel (DL-SCH); and

after receiving the paging message, receiving, by the terminal from the network, system information in a system information block (SIB) on the downlink shared channel (DL-SCH) in accordance with a System Information Radio Network Temporary Identifier (SI-RNTI) previously received via a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), the system information including the ETWS message.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the paging message is received through a Paging Control Channel (PCCH).

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the ETWS message includes a primary ETWS notification and a secondary ETWS notification.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the primary ETWS notification is firstly received before the reception of the secondary ETWS notification.

5. The method of claim 3 , wherein the primary ETWS notification is contained in SIB type 10 and the secondary ETWS notification is contained in SIB type 11 .

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the system information block (SIB) is a system information block (SIB) type 1 .

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the paging message includes a warning cause.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving the SI-RNTI via the PDCCH before receiving the system information including the ETWS message.

9. A terminal for receiving a warning message in mobile communication system, the terminal comprising:

a controller configured to:

receive a paging message from a network during an idle mode, the paging message including a warning message indication,

wherein the paging message is used to inform the terminal of a presence of the warning message during the idle mode,

wherein the warning message is an Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System (ETWS) message, and

wherein the warning message indication indicates that there will be a transmission of the warning message through a downlink shared channel (DL-SCH); and

after receiving the paging message, receive system information in a system information block (SIB) on the downlink shared channel (DL-SCH) in accordance with a System Information Radio Network Temporary Identifier (SI-RNTI) previously received via a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), the system information including the ETWS message.

10. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the paging message is received through a Paging Control Channel (PCCH).

11. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the ETWS message includes a primary ETWS notification and a secondary ETWS notification.

12. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein the primary ETWS notification is firstly received before the reception of the secondary ETWS notification.

13. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein the primary ETWS notification is contained in SIB type 10 and the secondary ETWS notification is contained in SIB type 11 .

14. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the system information block (SIB) is a system information block (SIB) type 1 .

15. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the paging message includes a warning cause.

16. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the controller is further configured to receive the SI-RNTI via the PDCCH before receiving the system information including the ETWS message.
