    摘要: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for admission control based on registered user equipments. One method includes receiving, at a first network function (NF), an indication from a second NF to subscribe to notifications for an admission control mode of a network slice. The method includes determining a number of user equipments (UEs) registered with the network slice. The method includes sending a first request to the second NF to activate the admission control mode for the network slice based on the number of UEs registered with the network slice being greater than a threshold value. The method includes sending a second request to the second NF to deactivate the admission control mode for the network slice based on the number of UEs registered with the network slice being less than or equal to the threshold value.

    摘要: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for network security based on routing information. One method includes receiving at a first network device, a security request message from an initial access and mobility management function (AMF), an initial security anchor function (SEAF)), or a combination thereof. The security request message includes information indicating a serving network name (SNN), whether routing information is required, a subscription permanent identifier (SUFI), or some combination thereof. The method includes determining, at the first network device, routing information based on the security request message. The method includes transmitting, from the first network device, a security response message to the initial AMF, the initial SEAF, or the combination thereof. The security response message includes the routing information.

    摘要: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for supporting delegated data connections. One apparatus includes a processor and a transceiver that receives an access request indicating that a remote unit requires to access a first access network. The processor determines to establish a delegated data connection in a mobile communication network for the remote unit, the delegated data connection connecting the apparatus with an external data network. The processor enables the authentication of the remote unit by converting a first authentication signaling used by the mobile communication network to a second authentication signaling used by the first access network. The processor controls the transceiver to forward data traffic between the remote unit and the external data network over the delegated data connection, wherein the delegated data connection is reserved for use by the remote unit.

    摘要: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for user equipment radio capabilities. One method includes transmitting, from a core network function, a request for radio capabilities of a user equipment. The method includes receiving a response to the request for the radio capabilities of the user equipment. The method includes determining at least one allowed network slice, at least one rejected network slice, or a combination thereof based on the radio capabilities of the user equipment. The method includes transmitting a configuration message to the user equipment, wherein the configuration message indicates the at least one allowed network slice, the at least one rejected network slice, or the combination thereof.

    摘要: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for target network slice information for target network slices. One method (900) includes receiving (902) a first message from a communication device including information indicating a request to register multiple network slices. The method (900) includes determining (904) target network slice information corresponding to multiple target network slices. The target network slice information includes information indicating network slices of the multiple network slices not supported in an area in which the communication device is located and a frequency specific configuration associated with the multiple target network slices. The method (900) includes transmitting (906) a second message to a radio network entity including the target network slice information and the associated frequency specific configuration.

    摘要: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for modifying a radio capability. One method includes determining that an update of a radio access capability for a first radio access technology is required based at least in part on whether to use a second radio access technology. The method includes switching to an idle state based on determining that the update of the radio access capability for the first radio access technology is required and transmitting a request message indicating that the update of the radio access capability for the first radio access technology is required in response to switching to the idle state, the request message further indicating to delete a stored radio access capability associated with the UE and obtain a new radio access capability associated with the UE.

    摘要: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for paging multi-SIM devices in the same network. One apparatus includes a first subscriber identity module (“SIM”), a second SIM, a processor and a transceiver that communicates with at least one communication network. The processor registers with a first communication network using the first SIM and registers with a second communication network using the second SIM. Here, the registration with the first communication network is associated with a first identifier, wherein registering with the second communication network includes indicating the first identifier to the second communication network upon determining that the first communication network and the second communication network are the same communication network.

    摘要: For monitoring a slice attribute, apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed. One apparatus (1000) includes a processor (1005) that determines (1105) to collect data for a slice attribute of a network slice. Here, the slice attribute is a number of UEs using the network slice and/or a number of data sessions using the network slice. The processor (1005) requests (1110) a first collecting network function to report first usage data (e.g., roaming UE usage) for the network slice according to the slice attribute and requests (1115) a second collecting network function to report second usage data (e.g., non-roaming usage) for the network slice according to the slice attribute. The processor (1005) determines (1120) whether a quota associated with the slice attribute is reached. The apparatus (1000) includes a transceiver (1025) that sends (1125) a notification to a network function in response to the quota being met.
