Apparatus and method for management of radio resource control connections
First Claim
1. A computer-readable storage device comprising computer instructions, which, responsive to being executed by a processor of a wireless communication device, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
- receiving configuration information over a network, wherein the configuration information includes threshold parameters for a maximum number of connection requests and a maximum time period for transmitting the connection requests, and wherein the configuration information includes a cell barring time period for performing cell barring;
monitoring for radio resource control connection requests being transmitted from the wireless communication device to a first server of a first cell of the network;
determining a number of failed radio resource control connection requests based on the monitoring;
determining a time of a first failed radio resource control connection request of the failed radio resource control connection requests based on the monitoring;
determining whether the number of failed radio resource control connection requests and the time of the first failed radio resource control connection request satisfy a cell barring threshold based on the threshold parameters; and
responsive to a determination that the cell barring threshold has been satisfied, causing the wireless communication device to perform cell selection for a second cell of the network and to perform the cell barring of the first cell.

Abstract
A system that incorporates the subject disclosure may include, for example, accessing configuration information, monitoring for radio resource control connection requests being transmitted from the wireless communication device to a first server of a first cell of a network, determining whether failed radio resource control connection requests satisfy a cell barring threshold based on the monitoring and based on the configuration information, and responsive to a determination that the cell barring threshold has been satisfied, causing the wireless communication device to perform cell selection for a second cell of the network and to perform cell barring of the first cell. Other embodiments are disclosed.

8. A method comprising:
-
receiving, by a processor of a wireless communication device, configuration information over a network, the configuration information including threshold parameters and a cell barring time period for performing cell barring; monitoring, by the processor, for radio resource control connection requests being transmitted from the wireless communication device to a first server of a first cell of the network; determining, by the processor, a number of failed radio resource control connection requests based on the monitoring; determining, by the processor, a time of a first failed radio resource control connection request of the failed radio resource control connection requests based on the monitoring; determining, by the processor, whether the number of failed radio resource control connection requests and the time of the first failed radio resource control connection request satisfy a cell barring threshold based on the threshold parameters; and responsive to a determination that the cell barring threshold has been satisfied, causing the wireless communication device to perform cell selection for a second cell of the network and to perform the cell barring of the first cell. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A computer-readable storage device comprising computer instructions, which, responsive to being executed by a baseband processor of a wireless communication device, cause the baseband processor to perform operations comprising:
-
accessing configuration information; monitoring an applications processor of the wireless communication device to identify radio resource control connection requests being generated by the applications processor, the radio resource control connection requests being generated by the applications processor for transmission by the baseband processor to a first server of a first cell of a network; determining whether failed radio resource control connection requests satisfy a cell barring threshold based on the monitoring and based on the configuration information; and responsive to a determination that the cell barring threshold has been satisfied, causing the wireless communication device to perform cell selection for a second cell of the network and to perform cell barring of the first cell. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
