Method for Reducing Closed Subscriber Group Identity Comparison
First Claim
1. A method for reducing closed subscriber group (CSG) identity comparison for a mobile device of a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- including radio access technology (RAT) information in an allowed CSG list or an operator CSG list, wherein the allowed CSG list and the operator CSG list are stored in an elementary file of the mobile device and the RAT information indicates a plurality of RATs associated with a plurality of CSG identities listed in the allowed CSG list;
maintaining a plurality of sub-allowed CSG lists in an access stratum (AS) layer of the mobile device according to the plurality of RATs, wherein the number of the sub allowed CSG lists corresponds to the number of the RATs; and
comparing a CSG identity associated with a first RAT with the CSG identities listed in a first sub allowed CSG list corresponding to the first RAT.

Abstract
A method for reducing CSG identity comparison for a mobile device in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method includes the steps of including RAT information in an Allowed CSG list and an Operator CSG List, wherein the Allowed CSG list and the Operator CSG List are stored in an elementary file of the mobile device and the RAT information indicates a plurality of RATs associated with a plurality of CSG identities listed in the allowed CSG list; maintaining a plurality of sub-allowed CSG lists in an access stratum (AS) layer of the mobile device according to the plurality of RATs, wherein the number of the sub-allowed CSG lists corresponds to the number of the RATs; and comparing a CSG identity associated with a first RAT with the CSG identities listed in a first sub allowed CSG list corresponding to the first RAT.
