Abstract
A user equipment (UE) that includes reception circuitry configured to receive system information from a cell is provided. The system information includes: one or more network identifiers, each of which identifying a public land mobile network (PLMN) or a Non-Public Networks (NPN) and identifying cell status information. The UE also includes processing circuitry configured to determine whether the cell status information indicates that the cell is barred, or to be treated as barred, for the UE. In a case that a Public Warning System (PWS) broadcast service is supported by the cell, the UE is allowed to camp on the cell for receiving one or more PWS messages, even if the cell status information indicates that the cell is barred, or to be treated as barred, for the UE.
