Method and apparatus for supporting an lOPS in a wireless access system
First Claim
1. A method for supporting an Isolated E-UTRAN Operations for Public Safety (IOPS) in a wireless access system, the method performed by a User Equipment (UE) in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection mode and comprising:
- receiving, from an e-Node B (eNB), a RRC connection release message including a release cause field and TOPS extended wait time field for restricting an access procedure;
releasing the RRC connection mode when the release cause field indicating an TOPS situation has occurred,wherein the IOPS extended wait time field is configured to an Extended Wait Time (EWT) field indicating a time duration restricting the access procedure or to a Further Announcement field indicating the access procedure is restricted until a further announcement is received;
when the IOPS extended wait time field is configured to the Further Announcement field, receiving the further announcement indicating the IOPS situation is resolved; and
performing the access procedure.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for supporting an IOPS and notifying the IOPS status. In one aspect of the present invention, a method for supporting an Isolated E-UTRAN Operations for Public Safety (IOPS) in a wireless access system, the method performed by a User Equipment (UE) in a RRC connection mode and comprises steps of receiving a radio resource control (RRC) connection release message including a release cause field and an IOPS extended wait time field for restricting an initial access procedure; and releasing the RRC connection mode when the release cause field indicating an IOPS situation has been occurred, wherein the IOPS extended wait time field is configured to an Extended Wait Time (EWT) field indicating a time duration restricting the initial access procedure or to a Further Announcement field indicating the initial access procedure is restricted until a further announcement is received.

5. A method for supporting an Isolated E-UTRAN Operations for Public Safety (IOPS) in a wireless access system, the method performed by an e-Node B (eNB) and comprising:
-
configuring a radio resource control (RRC) connection release message including a release cause field and an TOPS extended wait time field for restricting an access procedure; transmitting, to a User Equipment (UE), the RRC connection release message, wherein the TOPS extended wait time field is configured to an Extended Wait Time field indicating a time duration restricting the access procedure or to a Further Announcement field indicating the access procedure is restricted until a further announcement is received; and when the TOPS extended wait time field is configured to the Further Announcement field, transmitting the further announcement indicating the TOPS situation is resolved; and performing the access procedure. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8, 9)
