1. A method, comprising:
- receiving an intra-frequency cell re-selection indicator in combination with physical cell identity split information from, at least one of a closed subscriber group cell and a macro cell, where the intra-frequency cell re-selection indicator is indicative of whether or not a mobile station is allowed to camp on a cell that is not ranked as best, and where the physical cell identity split information indicates information about a reservation of physical cell identities to be used for closed subscriber group cells; and
making an intra-frequency cell selection/re-selection decision based on the received intra-frequency cell re-selection indicator and the physical cell identity split information.

12. An apparatus comprising:
-
at least one processor; and
at least one memory including computer program code, where the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus to at least store an intra-frequency cell re-selection indicator and physical cell identity split information, where the intra-frequency cell re-selection indicator is indicative of whether or not a mobile station is allowed to camp on a cell that is not ranked as best, and where the physical cell identity split information indicates information about a reservation of physical cell identities to be used for closed subscriber group cells; andtransmit the intra-frequency cell re-selection indicator with the physical cell identity split information in at least one of a closed subscriber group cell and a macro cell. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
