摘要:
A user equipment (UE) operating in an “Onboarding Mode” may search for a network broadcasting Onboarding Capability Information (OCT), then register using onboarding credentials and receive SNPN credentials from the network. The UE may then exit onboarding mode, enter Manual Network Selection or Automatic Network Selection mode, and connect to the SNPN. A UE may also receive from a network a list of PLMNs and SNPNs that are equivalent then, when registering, indicate to the network that a requested slice is not associated with the IJE's HPLMN, but is associated with an SNPN. The network may indicate to the UE how the slices of the network map to the slices of the SNPN, and may indicate whether a slice that is offered by the network only partially maps to a slice of the SNPN or HPLMN.

Methods, apparatus, and systems are described for improved discontinuous reception (DRX) for PCS communication (e.g., including unicast, groupcast and broadcast) for a User Equipment (UE) and particularly for reducing the power consumption.
摘要:
User equipment (UE) may detect a disaster condition, and the resolution thereof, based on broadcast information, RRC messaging, NAS messaging, the ability to connect to an allowable PLMN, and indications from forbidden PLMNs. In a disaster condition, a UE may perform an enhanced PLMN selection procedure wherein, for example, the UE will not consider PLMNs that are in a disaster situation if the disaster situation applies to a current location of the UE, prioritize forbidden PLMNs for disaster roaming connection. For disaster roaming connection, the UE may be configured by an otherwise forbidden PLMN with information about what services the UE can access and what type of authentication procedure the network is able to perform with UE. Upon detecting that the disaster condition is over, the UE move back to an allowable PLMN.
摘要:
An overall architecture to integrate multicast and broadcast service into a general 5G core network. The architecture may provide methods and systems to switch the delivery mode of transmitting messages to User Equipment (UE)s from a unicast mode to a multicast mode. The method includes triggering events at UE, network functions, content provider or RAN node to initiate the switch process; a procedure for UE initiated switch from unicast to multicast; a procedure for network-initiated switch from unicast mode to multicast mode; and a procedure for RAN initiated switch from unicast mode to multicast mode. The architecture may also provide methods to switch the delivery mode from multicast mode to unicast mode. These methods may include triggering events at UE, network functions, content provider or RAN node to initiate the switch process; a procedure for UE initiated switch from multicast mode to unicast mode; a procedure for network-initiated switch from multicast mode to unicast mode; and a procedure for RAN initiated switch from multicast mode to unicast mode.

Methods devised for enabling external AF/AS to provide information to SGC regarding Edge Data Network Configurations. Further, methods for UE provisioning for Edge service enablement are provided. Mechanisms are disclosed for: enabling UEs, not hosting an EEC, to request EDN information provisioning in order to enable Application Clients, which are not Edge-aware, to utilize Edge services; enabling an EEC, hosted by a UE, to obtain Edge Configuration information by using URSP rules for establishing IP connectivity with a Configuration Server; and enabling an EEC, hosted by a UE, to obtain Edge Data Network configuration information during registration. Furthermore, methods are provided that include mechanisms for: enabling AFs to subscribe for event monitoring exposure via the NEF and request optimized reporting or preference for reporting distribution via the UE; enabling subscriptions and policies from centralized NFs to be distributed to Edge or Local Deployments along the path of UEs, via the UE; and enabling exposure of event monitoring from centralized NFs to edge servers, with low latency, via the UE.

Apparatuses, computer readable media, and methods are disclosed for context aware synchronization for peer-to-peer communication. A method may include extracting from a super beacon synchronization information. The method may further include synchronizing with a beacon of an application based on the synchronization information. Another method may include extracting synchronization information from a received beacon, if the received beacon is for a first application. The method may further include if the received beacon is not for a first application, then extracting common beacon synchronization information from the received beacon, scanning for the common beacon based on the extracted common beacon synchronization information, receiving the common beacon, and extracting common channel synchronization information from the common beacon. Another method may include transmitting synchronization information in a data packet to a WTRU, if there is data to be transmitted, and otherwise transmitting synchronization information in a dummy packet to the second WTRU.

A method and devices may assist in addressing signaling efficiency issues when the network aims to page a group of UEs in a multicast group so that the UEs will switch from CM-IDLE state to CM-CONNECTED state.
摘要:
A user equipment, (UE) and a network may communicate to dynamically adapt the steering of traffic over both 3 GPP and non-3GPP accesses for uplink, downlink, or both. For example, a UE may request from the network the ability to dynamically adapt uplink traffic and the network may also apply the same traffic adaptation on downlink traffic. The UE and network may communicate dynamic traffic adaptation using traffic steering rules, e.g., via control plane NAS protocol, and with user plane signalling, e.g., via user plane PMF protocol.
摘要:
Methods and apparatuses are described herein for providing fine-grained QoS rules within UE Policies. A network entity may receive triggers to update the policies of a user equipment (UE) with parameters based on input such as input from a third party. The network entity may derive fine-grained quality of service (QoS) rules and corresponding QoS Profiles and delivers them to the UE using a UE Policy container via the Non-Access Stratum (NAS). The fine-grained rules may comprise: a destination fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or uniform resource locator (URL), an Application ID, a User Route Selection Policy precedence value, etc. The fine-grained rules also provide mechanisms for time gating or volume gating. The UE may request new QoS treatment resulting in UE Policy update and may use the information in the fine-grained QoS rules when establishing or modifying PDU Session to apply QoS Flow Identifier (QFI) marking.
摘要:
Methods, systems, and devices may assist in policy and parameters provision to network to support the redundant transmission configuration using dual connectivity DC. In particular, a PDU session pair information (PSPI) is associated with both a first and second PDU session. The PSPI is then sent to an AMF in the network in both a first PDU session establishment message and a second PDU session establishment message. The AMF may then forward this to the RAN and first and second SMF. This allows the RAN to associate the two PDU sessions.
