Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for delivering user equipment (UE) new radio (NR) security capabilities and mobility management entity interworking. In the embodiments, adding the UE NR security capabilities in a new information element over a non-access stratum (NAS) is compatible with a legacy mobility management entity and eliminate any potential of bidding-down attack and is more advantageous and serves the security solution better. As long as the UE is connected to the long term evolution (LTE) and all UE security capabilities including LTE security capabilities have been replayed correctly and successfully in the NAS security mode command (SMC) message, the UE may not consider the absence of the UE NR security capabilities in the NAS SMC as a security vulnerability.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a policy may be defined, which specifies that an operation be performed over a first set of channels before being performed over a second set of channels different than the first set of channels. The first set of channels may be associated with a first set of frequencies, and the second set of channels may be associated with a second set of frequencies. A network device may perform paging according to the defined policy. A user equipment (UE) may perform paging, page monitoring, cell selection triggered by paging, or cell reselection triggered by paging according to the policy. The policy may be hardcoded, pre-configured or dynamically configured using signaling messages.

Abstract: A transmit chain (TX chain) of a user equipment (UE) transmits an uplink signal to a first wireless network associated with a first base station or a second wireless network associated with a second base station. The uplink signal includes information indicative of a first receive chain (RX chain) of the UE being synchronized to the first base station to receive first traffic from the first wireless network, and a second RX chain of the UE being synchronized to the second base station to receive second traffic from the second wireless network. The UE transmits uplink traffic for the first wireless network and the second wireless network to the second base station via the TX chain of the UE.

Abstract: According to various embodiments, a method includes determining, by a network node, whether to enable or disable a paging early indication (PEI) function for a user equipment (UE) in accordance with one or more messages the network node received from at least one of a session management function (SMF), a first next generation Node B (gNB), or the UE. The method further includes transmitting, by the network node, an indication to the first gNB, the indication indicating whether the PEI function for the UE is enabled or disabled.
