Abstract
Methods and systems for autonomous search for Closed Subscriber Groups (CSGs) cells in wireless networks are disclosed. A user device determines current situational indicators of the user device and compares the current situational indicators to previously-recorded situational indicators stored in the user device. The user device also selects, based on the comparison, a closed subscriber group (CSG) cell from a list of CSG cells in the user device. Lastly, the user device searches for the CSG cell based on a proximity of a first location associated with the current situational indicators of the user device to a second location associated with the previously-recorded situational indicators of the CSG cell.
