Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may camp on a base station of a network. The UE receives, from the base station of a wireless network, a broadcast including access restrictions, wherein the access restrictions include one or more predetermined criteria that must be satisfied to camp on the base station. The UE then determines whether the UE satisfies the one or more predetermined criteria.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may be barred from accessing one or more network slices. The UE collects information to perform an access barring procedure corresponding to a cell of a network, performs an accessing barring procedure using the information, performs a random access channel (RACH) procedure with the cell and establishes a radio resource control (RRC) connection with the cell.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may attempt to access an edge data network. The UE generates a first credential based on a second credential, the second credential generated for a procedure between the UE and a cellular network, generating an identifier corresponding to the first credential, and generates a multi-access edge computing (MEC) authorization parameter. The UE then transmits an application registration request message to a server associated with an edge data network, the application registration request message including an indication of the first credential, the identifier corresponding to the first credential and the first authorization parameter. The UE then receives an authentication accept message or an authentication reject message from the server associated with the edge data network.

Abstract: User equipment (UE) operation in a single frequency network (SFN). The UE may receive one or more transmission configuration indication (TCI) states corresponding to one or more downlink resources, receive a demodulated reference signal (DMRS) wherein the DMRS is quasi co-located (QCLed) with one or more channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) from multiple cells of a SFN and quasi co-location (QCL) information is included in the one or more TCI and determine a time and frequency offset corresponding to each of the multiple cells based on the CSI-RS.

Abstract: A network component communicating with a user equipment (UE) and a server. The network component receives a first packet from the UE, wherein the first packet indicates to the network component that the network component is to perform operations on behalf of the UE to maintain a persistent connection, receives a second packet from the server and determines whether to transmit a signal to the UE based on the second packet received from the server. A UE having a transceiver and a processor. The UE transmits a first packet to the network component, wherein the first packet indicates to the network component that the network component is to perform operations on behalf of the UE to maintain a persistent connection, identifies an out of service (OOS) event, receives registration information from the network component and registers with the server based on the registration information received from the network component.
