When a network is requiring access barring, a mobile device determines whether a reference value broadcasted to the mobile device indicates a value determining that an access is denied regardless of a numerical value generated by the mobile device, or indicates a value having a possibility that an access of a certain mobile device is denied while an access of another mobile device is allowed. In the latter case, the mobile device determines appropriateness of an access by performing predetermined processing using the reference value as a value to be checked for a relationship with a numerical value generated by the mobile device when the mobile device does not have a special type access class, and uses a value enabling allowance of an access without performing the predetermined processing as a value for determining appropriateness of an access when the mobile device has the special type access class.

Method of barring network access, mobile device and processor

When a network is in a state of requiring any sort of access barring, determining whether a special type access class is included as an access class to which an own device belongs, determining appropriateness of an access by referring to, from barring information, a first barring information for designating whether a mobile device belonging to each access class is subject to access barring when having determined that the special type access class is included, and determining the appropriateness of an access by referring to, from the barring information, second barring information indicating a value serving as a reference for determining the appropriateness of an access according to a relationship between a numerical value generated by each mobile device and the reference indicated by the second barring information when having determined that the special type access class is included.

Method of barring access to network, mobile device for the method, and processor used in mobile device

When a network is in a state of requiring some sort of access barring, a reference value notified to a mobile device is determined to indicate a value in which an access of a certain mobile device is denied while an access of another mobile device is allowed. When an own device has a special type access class, it is determined that an access is allowed The appropriateness of an access is determined according to designation from the network when the own device has the special type access class, and when the own device does not have the special type access class, it is determined that an access is denied.
