Abstract: A device and method for generating a user equipment (UE) capability information message. In a first embodiment, a UE receives a request for the radio access capabilities of the UE and a size limit indication for a message to be generated by the UE that includes the radio access capabilities. The UE generates the message that includes the radio access capabilities based on the size limit then transmits the message to the network. In a second embodiment, a UE receives a request for the radio access capabilities of the UE. The UE also receives a segment limit indication and a size limit indication for a message to be generated by the UE that includes the radio access capabilities. The UE generates the message where the message includes a plurality of segments based on the segment limit. Subsequently, the UE transmits the message to the network.

Abstract: A device, system, and method uses a high power mode for a cellular connection. The method is performed at a device that is configured to establish a network connection to a network. The method includes detecting a number of at least one event that has occurred over a time period, the at least one event associated with operations used through the network connection, the at least one event indicative of a power to perform the operations that is greater than a predetermined power. When the number is at least a predetermined threshold, the method includes identifying the network connection as being in a high power state. The method includes activating settings when the network connection is in the high power state, the settings reducing a usage of the operations over the network connection.

Abstract: A network function is responsible for enforcing network slice quotas. The network function identifies a network slice quota for a single network slice selection assistance information (S-NSSAI), determines that the network slice quota for the S-NSSAI includes a first quota corresponding to fifth generation (5G) packet data unit (PDU) sessions and a second quota corresponding to interworking handovers between a fifth generation core (5GC and an evolved packet core (EPC), receives a request to update the network slice quota and updates the network slice quota for the S-NSSAI based on the request.

Abstract: This disclosure describes example embodiments and techniques to resolve UE behavior for several SAR use cases. The substate selection for a UE which has a valid SAR list and is currently camped on a cell which is in the registered PLMN or a PLMN from the list of equivalent PLMNs and whose TAI is not in the list of “allowed tracking areas” or is camped on a cell whose TAI is in the list of “non-allowed tracking areas,” has gaps in functionality and certain use cases. There are conflicting requirements as to what is the substate to be chosen by the UE. Additionally, there are certain behaviors missing for a UE in substate 5GMM-REGISTERED.NON-ALLOWED-SERVICE.

Abstract: This application describes methods and apparatus to manage data transport across multiple radio links for 5G-capable wireless devices. Under certain criteria, including performance of at least one radio link, a mobility state of a 5G-capable wireless device, and data transport requirements for a latency sensitive application session, the 5G-capable wireless device sends buffer status report (BSR) requests for one or more both of the radio links to prioritize and transition uplink (UL) data between radio links before a measurement reporting threshold is met. In some embodiments, the 5G-capable wireless device proactively sends BSR requests for radio resources before the UL data is generated by the latency sensitive application session. In some embodiments, the 5G-capable wireless device duplicates UL data for the latency sensitive application session across multiple radio links.

Abstract: A cellular network includes a first network component configured to i) identify a first session between a first data network and a user equipment (UE), wherein the first session corresponds to a first session management function (SMF), ii) receive data network access information (DNAI) from a network function, the DNAI corresponding to a second data network and iii) select a second SMF that is to be utilized for a second session between the second data network and the UE. The cellular network also includes a second network component configured to i) store a mapping between the DNAI and the second SMF and ii) transmit an indication of the second SMF to the first network component, wherein the first network component selects the second SMF based on the indication.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, integrated circuits and computer readable storage media for configuring time sensitive communications (TSC). The configuring of the TSC includes monitoring, by a user plane function (UPF), a source and destination of packets in a first protocol data unit (PDU) session of a first user equipment (UE) and in a second PDU session of a second UE, pairing a first device side TSN translator (DS-TT) port of the first UE with a second DS-TT port of the second UE when the first PDU session and the second PDU session are served by the same UPF, wherein the pairing is based on the monitoring of the first and second PDU sessions and when the first DS-TT and second DS-TT ports are paired, communicating the packets between the first UE and the second UE in a UE-UE communication without traversing the TSN.

Abstract: The exemplary embodiments relate to implementing network slice aware cell selection at a user equipment (UE). This may include receiving information indicating that a cell of a network supports a network slice. The UE may identify that the UE is located within the coverage area of the cell and determine whether measurement data corresponding to the cell satisfies predetermined criteria. when the measurement data satisfies the criteria, the UE may camp on the cell.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) displays a list of available networks for manual network selection. The UE detects multiple networks during a public land mobile network (PLMN) scan, wherein the multiple networks include one or more PLMNs and one or more stand-alone non-public networks (SNPNs), generates a manual network selection list that includes at least i) the one or more PLMNs or ii) the one or more SNPNs, determines a sequence in which entries of the manual network selection list are to be displayed at the UE, displays a graphical user interface (GUI) that includes a representation of the manual network selection list and registers with one of the multiple networks in response to user input.
