Abstract:
A method of determining UE access identity for a UE that is registered to the same or different PLMN networks over 3GPP and non-3GPP accesses is proposed. The UE registers to one or more Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) or Standalone Non-Public Network (SNPN) over 3GPP access and non-3GPP access. If the UE registers to the same PLMN/SNPN over 3GPP and non-3GPP access, then the UE handles the UE access identity as one common parameters. On the other hand, if the UE registers to different PLMN/SNPN over 3GPP and non-3GPP, then the UE handles the UE access identity as two independent parameters. The access identity may comprise a priority indicator IE that is set to “Access Identity 1 valid” for MPS or “Access Identity 2 valid” for MCS.
