Abstract:
A method and apparatus for controlling inter-PLMN handover based on CSG lists of equivalent PLMNs is provided. A method for receiving subscriber information of a terminal at a Mobility Management Entity (MME) includes transmitting an update location request message for the terminal to a Home Subscriber Server (HSS), and receiving an update location acknowledgement message with the subscriber information of the terminal from the HSS, wherein the update location request message comprises a list of equivalent Public Land Mobile Networks (PLMNs) among which the MME supports inter-PLMN handover of the terminal. The method and apparatus for controlling inter-plan handover to a CSG cell according to the present invention is characterized in that a control apparatus of a core network acquires the allowed CSG lists for determining a User Equipments (UEs) capability of access to a CSG cell and determines whether to permit inter-PLMN handover based on the allowed CSG lists.

Claim (Index 10):
The method of  claim 8 ,\n wherein the CSG subscription information for the equivalent PLMN list includes at least one CSG ID corresponding to the equivalent PLMN list, wherein the equivalent PLMN list is a list of PLMNs considered as equivalent by a terminal for handover, and wherein the update location ACK message further includes CSG subscription information for a registered PLMN.
