Abstract

Disclosed herein is a method for receiving a warning message in a wireless communication system.
The method performed by a terminal comprises receiving, from a base station, first control information indicating whether or not a use of a pre-defined string(PDS) set including one or more PDSs used for a Public Warning System(PWS) is enabled; receiving, from the base station, second control information associated with a configuration of the PDS set; receiving, from the base station, the warning message; and outputting an alarm information based on the received warning message.

First claim

1 . A method for receiving a warning message in a wireless communication system, the method performed by a terminal comprising:
receiving, from a base station, first control information indicating whether or not a use of a pre-defined string(PDS) set is enabled, wherein the PDS set includes one or more PDSs used to immediately recognize occurrence of an emergency, wherein the one or more pre-defined string(PDS)s are associated with an alarm information that the warning message is outputted visually, audibly or tactilely; receiving, from the base station, second control information associated with a configuration of the PDS set, wherein the second control information includes at least one of first indication information indicating the PDS set, second indication information indicating a number of the PDSs included in the PDS set, or third indication information indicating a length of each PDS within the PDS set; receiving, from the base station, the warning message; determining whether to output the warning message as a text or as the alarm information corresponding to the one or more PDSs based on the received indication information; and outputting the warning message according to the determination result.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the alarm information is information defined by a specific PDS if the received warning message includes the specific PDS configured by at least one PDS.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein if the use of the PDS set is enabled, the warning message is outputted to the alarm information corresponding to the one or more PDSs, and
if the use of the PDS set is not enabled, the warning message is outputted to the text.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the third indication information is included in the second control information if the length of each PDS within the PDS set is different.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the alarm information is one or more of image, icon, sound and vibration.

6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, from the base station, a third control information indicating a configuration of the specific PDS included in the warning message.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first control information is received through an attach procedure with the base station.

8 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the first control information is received through a system information block (SIB),
wherein the second control information is received through a system information block (SIB) type 2 , and wherein the third control information is received through a system information block (SIB) type 12 .

9 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving a fourth control information indicating whether or not the second control information is changed from the base station.

10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the fourth control information is included in a system information block or a paging message.

11 . A method for transmitting a warning message in a wireless communication system, the method performed by a base station comprising:
transmitting, to a terminal, first control information indicating whether or not a use of a pre-defined string(PDS) set is enabled, wherein the PDS set includes one or more PDSs used to immediately recognize occurrence of an emergency, wherein the one or more pre-defined string(PDS)s are associated with an alarm information that the warning message is outputted visually, audibly or tactilely; transmitting, to the terminal, second control information associated with a configuration of the PDS set, wherein the second control information includes at least one of first indication information indicating the PDS set, second indication information indicating a number of the PDSs included in the PDS set, or third indication information indicating a length of each PDS within the PDS set; transmitting a first warning message to the terminal.

12 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising:
receiving at least one second warning message from at least one MME (mobility management entity), wherein the at least one second warning message includes at least one of a message identifier or a message sequence number; and checking whether the at least one received second warning message is the same message by using at least one of the message identifier or the message serial number.

13 . The method of claim 12 , wherein if the at least received one second warning message is the same, only the first warning message is transmitted to the terminal.

14 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising:
determining at least one cell for transmitting the at least one received second warning message to the terminal based on the alert area information included in the at least received one second warning message.

15 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the at least one second warning message comprises third control information indicating whether or not concurrent transmission of a warning message is supported.

16 . The method of claim 15 , further comprising:
determining whether to transmit the first warning message and the second warning message simultaneously based on the received third control information.

17 . The method according to claim 15 , wherein the third control information is included in the second warning message if the first warning message is transmitted to the terminal.

18 . The method of claim 15 , wherein if the third control information indicates the support of concurrent transmission, the first warning message and the second warning message are transmitted to the terminal simultaneously, p 1 if the third control information does not indicate the support of concurrent transmission, the transmission of the first warning message is stopped, and the second warning message are transmitted to the terminal.

19 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the third control information is not included in the second warning message, the second warning message has a higher priority than the first warning message.

20 . A terminal for receiving a warning message in a wireless communication system, comprising:
a radio frequency (RF) module for transceiving a radio signal; and a processor functionally connected to the RF module, wherein the processor is configured: to receive, from a base station, first control information indicating whether or not a use of a pre-defined string(PDS) set is enabled, wherein the PDS set includes one or more PDSs used to immediately recognize occurrence of an emergency, wherein the one or more pre-defined string(PDS)s are associated with an alarm information that the warning message is outputted visually, audibly or tactilely; to receive, from the base station, second control information associated with a configuration of the PDS set, wherein the second control information includes at least one of first indication information indicating the PDS set, second indication information indicating a number of the PDSs included in the PDS set, or third indication information indicating a length of each PDS within the PDS set; to receive, from the base station, the warning message; to determine whether to output the warning message as a text or as the alarm information corresponding to the one or more PDSs based on the received indication information; and to output the warning message according to the determination result.
