Abstract
A radio resource control suspend operation and a radio resource control resume operation. The terminal (702, 1300) and the communication network (110) stores respective radio resource control information related to a configured connected state of the terminal (702, 1300). The method comprises performing an admission control process during the radio resource control resume operation, where the admission control process comprises a procedure for examining whether the connected state is to be resumed according to the stored radio resource configuration information or if a radio resource reconfiguration procedure is to be performed for resuming the connected state.
