Abstract:
Systems and methods for transmitting AT commands indicating whether Evolved Packet System (EPS) Session Management (ESM) information should be transmitted securely are disclosed herein. A Terminal Equipment (TE) may transmit an AT command to a Mobile Termination (MT). The AT command may indicate whether protocol configuration options (PCO) should be ciphered and/or whether an access point name (APN) is provided. In some embodiments, the AT command may be a dedicated command and may only include a parameter and an parameter. Alternatively, or in addition, the AT command may include a parameter, an parameter, and/or additional parameters serving additional functions. Whether the APN is provided may be determined based on whether the parameter is present and includes a non-null value. The AT command may be related to a single packet data network (PDN) connection or may relate to a plurality of PDN connections.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides access to a network based on a device profile. Configuring access to a network can include decoding uplink data received from a user equipment (UE), accessing a device profile corresponding to the UE from the decoded uplink data, and configuring an access that the UE has to an EPC network based on the device profile.
Abstract:
A mobile radio communication device is described comprising: an instruction receiver configured to receive an instruction from a second mobile radio communication device to request subscriber identity module installation data for installation of a second subscriber identity module, wherein the second subscriber identity module is related to a first subscriber identity module that is installed in the second mobile radio communication device; a request transmitter configured to transmit a request for the subscriber identity module installation data to a first server; a subscription data receiver configured to receive the subscriber identity module installation data from a second server; and a controller configured to install the second subscriber identity module based on the received subscriber identity module installation data.
Abstract:
This disclosure relates generally to radio access technology information storage in a mobile network. The device, method, and/or system may include receiving, by a network node of a mobile network, a request from user equipment related to one or more radio access technologies and transmitting, by the network node in response to the request, a reply message to the user equipment including, for each of the one or more radio access technologies, an indication of an amount of electronic storage the network node may allocate to storage of information related to the one or more radio access technologies.

Abstract:
Technology for improving the selection, transfer, and storage of user equipment (UE) radio capability information is disclosed. A cellular mobile network can be configured to identify radio-access-technology (RAT)-specific radio-capability information relating to RATs supported in the cellular mobile network and communicate the RAT-specific radio-capability information to a UE. The UE can use the RAT-specific radio-capability information to help determine which UE radio capability information to send to the network. In addition, the UE may store a list of supported frequency bands and/or supported frequency-band combinations (LOSB) indexed by network operators and use the list to help determine which UE radio capability information to send to the network. A network node may also selectively remove unnecessary information from UE radio capability information before storing the UE radio capability information at a mobility management entity (MME).
Abstract:
User Equipment (UE) may skip the Access Class Barring (ACB) procedure for specific services, such as MMTEL voice, MMTEL video, and SMS. In one implementation, NAS layer of a UE may: receive, from an upper layer relative to the NAS layer, a request for a particular service type that is being originated by the UE; receive an indication, from a Radio Resource Control (RRC) layer of the UE, that access to a cell, associated with the UE, is barred; and bypass the indication that access to the cell is barred, when the particular service type matches a predetermined set of service types. The bypassing may include: requesting that the RRC layer establish an RRC connection for the service request, and notifying the RRC layer that the request for the RRC connection corresponds to the particular service type.
Abstract:
Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, a network node of a first Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) receives a request from a user equipment (UE) for a service to be provided to the UE by the first PLMN, and sends a response to the UE indicating whether the request is accepted or rejected, wherein the response indicates to the UE whether the UE is allowed to repeat the request if the UE connects to a second PLMN that is an equivalent PLMN with the first PLMN.
Abstract:
Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE) and methods for operating in a mobile network that supports packet-switched (PS) and circuit-switched (CS) communication are generally described herein. The UE may include hardware processing circuitry to transmit a registration message for registration with the PS node and a CS node of the mobile network and for an establishment of a signaling session between the PS node and the CS node for the UE. The hardware processing circuitry may be further to transmit a periodic registration update message for remaining registered with the PS node. In some embodiments, the periodic registration update message may include a signaling permission indicator for a re-establishment, by the PS node, of the signaling session between the PS node and the CS node for the UE.
