Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for enhancing location reporting procedures to include height information of a user equipment (UE), such as an aerial UE. The location reporting procedures may be between a core network entity and an access network entity. Due to the differences in coverage regions between areal cells and terrestrial cells, aerial UEs may not fully rely on cell identifiers (IDs) as a primary location indicator due to its ambiguity (e.g., as the aerial UEs may use a side-lobe or up-tilted beam of a far-away cell that provides a cell ID while its conventional geographical location belongs to another, closer cell). Aspects of the present disclosure provides techniques for enhancing the location reporting procedures for the aerial UEs to prevent such potential errors in location reporting.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described herein. For example, a UE may transmit a radio capability identifier to a network entity. In some examples, the radio capability identifier may indicate a set of radio capabilities of the UE. In response to receiving the radio capability identifier, the network entity may determine feedback indicating whether the set of radio capabilities indicated by the radio capability identifier satisfy a respective radio capabilities of a radio capability profile for an application associated with the UE. The network entity may transmit the determined feedback to the UE and, in response, the UE may establish a session for the application associated with the UE.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration associated with a service, the configuration indicating a first set of one or more parameters for accessing the service in a multicast mode using non-access stratum (NAS)-based signaling, and a second set of one or more parameters for accessing the service in a broadcast mode within a broadcast service area. The UE may receive information associated with the service using one of the multicast mode or the broadcast mode. The UE may switch to receiving information associated with the service using the other of the multicast mode or the broadcast mode based at least in part on the first set of one or more parameters or the second set of one or more parameters. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for a UE to select a public land mobile network (PLMN). In general, the present disclosure provides methods for PLMN scanning and selection of a PLMN with discontinuous coverage. In certain aspects, a UE may perform a PLMN scan according to a first schedule when a preferred PLMN of the UE is associated with discontinuous coverage (DC) and perform the PLMN scan according to a second schedule when the preferred PLMN of the UE is not associated with DC.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for paging in discontinuous coverage. A method that may be performed by a network entity includes communicating with a user equipment (UE) and a core network: and sending or receiving radio paging information indicating at least one of cell coverage information or an identifier associated with a geographic area in which the UE is located, wherein the geographic area is in a coverage path of a non-terrestrial network (NTN).

Abstract: A UE transmits an indication of a capability for at least one of determining a domain name system (DNS) parameter for a DNS query that is different than a DNS setting from a network and redirecting the DNS query based on the DNS setting from the network. The UE receives, from the network, an instruction to monitor DNS queries based on the capability of the UE and enforcing the DNS settings from the network. An SMF receives, from a UE, an indication of a capability for at least one of determining a DNS parameter for a DNS query that is different than a DNS setting from a network and redirecting the DNS query based on the DNS setting from the network. The apparatus transmits, to the UE, an instruction to monitor DNS queries and to enforce the DNS settings from the network based on the capability of the UE.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a network node (e.g., a session management function (SMF)) may receive policy and charging control (PCC) rules that include control information associated with a non-integrated aggregation (NIA) protocol data unit (PDU) session requested by a user equipment (UE). The SMF may communicate, to the UE, one or more access traffic steering, switching, and splitting (ATSSS) rules derived from the PCC rules, wherein the one or more ATSSS rules are for controlling traffic steering, switching, and splitting associated with the NIA PDU session in an uplink direction. The network node may communicate, to a user plane function (UPF), N4 interface rules derived from the PCC rules, wherein the N4 interface rules are for controlling traffic steering, switching, and splitting associated with the NIA PDU session in a downlink direction. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may store, in a domain name system (DNS) cache, DNS information associated with an edge application server at which an application context, associated with an application client resident on the UE, is located. The UE may receive a first message associated with a handover of the UE or a second message associated with a transfer of the application context. The UE may modify the DNS cache, by updating the DNS information or flushing the DNS information, based at least in part on receiving the first message or the second message. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to on-demand ultra-reliable, low-latency communication (URLLC) are provided. In one embodiment, a base station (BS) receives, from a user equipment (UE) in a first cell frequency, a request for a protocol data unit (PDU) session over a network slice. The BS receives, from a core network entity, a resource configuration request for the PDU session over the network slice. The BS transmits, to the core network entity, a resource configuration response indicating a cause for rejecting the resource configuration request. In one embodiment, a UE transmits, in a first cell frequency of a network, a network registration request message requesting a network slice of the network that is not provided by the first cell frequency. The UE receives a network registration response message indicating the network slice is allowed based on a second cell frequency of the network providing the network slice requested.

Abstract: In one aspect, a remote device generates data for transmission to a network based on an application, selects one of a set of data routing options for routing the data to the network based on policy control information; each of the set of data routing options includes routing the data via a relay device; and transmits the data to the relay device for routing the data via the selected data routing option. In another aspect, a relay establishes a protocol data unit (PDU) session with a network for relaying data received from a remote device based on policy control information, receives data from the remote device, and transmits the data to a base station coupled to the network via the PDU session. Another aspect relates to the base station operation with respect to the above aspects.
