摘要:
This disclosure combines the Attach and Tracking Area Update procedures into one new mobility procedure: the Registration procedure performed by a signal handling function SHF. One advantage of the proposed Registration procedure is that, if the new SHF is unable to obtain UE data from the old SHF the new SHF will nevertheless register the UE so that the UE does not have to perform another registration procedure (e.g., an Attach procedure).

The embodiments herein relate to a method for mobility enforcement performed by a control entity. The method comprises receiving a first control plane transmitted by a wireless communication device, WCD; and in response to receiving the first control plane message obtaining mobility information for the WCD. The mobility information for the WCD identifying at least one of: a set of one or more allowed regions. a set of one or more allowed radio access technologies, RATs, and a set of one or more access points. The method further comprising transmitting to the WCD a response message, said response message identifying at least one of: the set of allowed regions, the set of allowed RATs, and the set of one or more access points. The embodiments herein relate to a control entity performing the method, a corresponding method performed by a wireless communication device, WCD, and a corresponding WCD.

Systems and methods relating to a cellular communications system having an architecture in which Serving Gateway (SGW) user plane functionality is separated from SGW control plane functionality are disclosed. In some embodiments, a cellular communications system having an architecture in which SGW user plane functionality is separated from SGW control plane functionality comprises a Serving Gateway Control plane entity (SGW-C) partitioned into a plurality of virtual SGW-Cs that correspond to a respective plurality of SGW User Plane (SGW-UP) service areas. The cellular communications system further comprises a plurality of SGW-UP pools each comprising one or more SGW User entities (SGW-Us), wherein each SGW-UP pool serves a respective one of the plurality of SGW-UP service areas. In this manner, the coordination problem between Tracking Areas (TAs) and the SGW-UP service areas is avoided.

This disclosure is directed to a method performed by a wireless communication device, WCD. The method comprises: receiving a base station message transmitted by a base station; and determining whether the received base station message includes information indicating that Non Access Stratum, NAS, type requests are supported by the base station, and also to a method in a base station communicating with a wireless communication device, WCD, residing in a cell served by the base station, the method comprising: generating, by the base station, a message comprising system information; transmitting, by the base station, the message comprising the system information, wherein the system information comprises information indicating that Non Access Stratum, NAS, type requests are supported by the base station.
