Abstract: A UE activates a timer for applying access control to transmissions associated with a certain access category during an access control period, in response to a first system information message received via a radio interface and a mobile-originated access request (1702). While the timer is running, the UE receives a second message that indicates a potential transition of the UE (i) from a current state associated with a protocol for controlling radio resources to another state associated with the protocol, or (ii) from a current cell to a new cell (1704). In response to the second message, the UE continues to apply the access control to the transmissions for the access category, for a remainder of the access control period (1706).
