Abstract: An apparatus of a communication network performs processing (10) for a group message to be sent to a plurality of devices. The group message includes an application layer content and a group identification identifying the plurality of devices. The apparatus performs communication (20) for sending the group message to the plurality of devices by using a protocol for enabling sending the group message in broadcast data to the plurality of devices. The protocol may enable sending the group message in multimedia broadcast/multicast service data or cell broadcast service data to the plurality of devices.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for enforcing time and usage limits are provided. One method includes allocating a usage allowance and time allowance for a group subscription to a network, and receiving a notification when a minimum threshold is reached for either the usage allowance or the time allowance within a certain duration. The method may further include determining a remainder of the usage allowance and a remainder of the time allowance by querying at least one policy and charging enforcement function, and reallocating the usage allowance and the time allowance based on the determined remainder of the usage allowance and the determined remainder of the time allowance.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for providing IMS level awareness of high latency device are provided. One method, when a UE attaches to EPC, receiving, at a network node, an indication that the UE is a high latency device. The method may also include assigning, to the UE, an IP address selected from a special IP address range that is designated specifically for high latency devices. When the UE performs IMS registration, the method may include determining that the UE is a high latency UE based on the UE's IP address provided with the IMS registration request and assigned during the EPC attach procedure.

Abstract: A method and apparatus can be configured to transmit first policy rules to a packet-data-network gateway. The first policy rules are configured to be installed on the packet-data-network gateway. The first policy rules are configured to enable the packet-data-network gateway to create first route-header information. The method can also include transmitting second policy rules to an interworking gateway. The second policy rules are configured to be installed on the interworking gateway. The second policy rules are configured to enable the interworking gateway to create second route-header information.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products of EPC paging for access points are provided. One method includes receiving, by a mobility management entity (MME), wireless local area network (WLAN) capability information of a user equipment (UE), including the WLAN capability information of the UE in a “UE radio capability information for paging” information element (IE), and providing the UE radio capability information to an evolved node B (eNB). The eNB decides, based on the received WLAN capability information, whether to page the UE via E-UTRAN or to notify the UE via WLAN.
