Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for efficient group-based handling of massive internet of things (M-IoT) devices that are compatible with both current cellular networks, and next generation 5G systems. Examples allow reduced overhead between a (radio) access network (R)AN and a core network (CN) that originates from unnecessary signaling traffic for IoT devices transitioning from IDLE to CONNECTED mode, especially when sending small data packets. In addition, or in other embodiments, mobility solutions are provided for group based M-IoT.
