Abstract:
1. A method of wireless communication, comprising: detecting a first connection failure at a user equipment (UE) in response to a first connection request, wherein a connection failure is detected based on at least one of an expiration of a response timer or a reception of a connection reject message; detecting a second connection failure at the UE in response to a second connection request; calculating a first difference between a timestamp of the second connection failure and a previously stored timestamp of the first connection failure; upon determining that the first difference satisfies a first time threshold, modifying, at the UE, stored information relating to one or more previous connection failures, wherein the one or more previous connection failures includes the first connection failure; and upon determining that the first difference fails to satisfy the first time threshold, withholding one of a future connection request for a barring time period or a future connection request for a back off time period.
