Disclosed embodiments are related to techniques for implementing Multiple Access Management Services (MAMS), Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC), and 3GPP Fifth Generation (5G) technologies. Embodiments include enhanced application programming interfaces (APIs) that allow applications to influence multi-access (MA) traffic steering decisions, and also get informed of various MA traffic steering modes. Disclosed embodiments also include techniques to enable coexistence between MEC-based MAMS systems and 5G MA traffic steering mechanisms. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to service function chaining in wireless networks. A communications system may include a communication control function to select one or multiple communication service functions associated with establishing service function chaining (SFC) services for telecommunications; a service orchestration and chaining function (SOCF) to establish the SFC services; and a service orchestration exposure function (SOEF) to expose the SFC services to an application function (AF) of the system.

Enhanced service function chaining in next generation cellular networks

Technology for an Information Centric Networking gateway (ICN-GW) operable to modify an ICN message received from a user equipment (UE) in a Fifth Generation (5G) cellular network is disclosed. The ICN-GW can decode the ICN message received from the UE via a Next Generation NodeB (gNB) and an ICN point of attachment (ICN-PoA). The ICN-GW can modify the ICN message to produce a modified ICN message. The ICN-GW can encode the modified ICN message to route the modified ICN message to a data network.

Supporting information centric networking in next generation cellular networks

The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for provisioning live media services. For example, a method may include receiving, at a user equipment (UE), configuration data for the UE. The configuration data may be based on one or more parameters from among a plurality of different types of parameters and generated in response to a UE configuration update being initiated. The method may also include executing, at the UE, the configuration data to enable the UE to provision a live media production service.

The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for providing interactive services to a device. For example, a method may include determining service authorization information for a device, the service authorization information being associated with an interactive service on a wireless network. The method may also include determining device policies for the device based on the service authorization information. The method may also include transmitting the device policies to the device, wherein the device policies cause the device to select a cloud rendering server for the interactive service.

Systems and methods provide user equipment (UE) access parameters for access control when, for example, the UE is accessing a non-public network, the UE is accessing a private slice in a public land mobile network (PLMN), the UE is accessing a non-public network for PLMN service, and/or the UE is accessing a private slice in a PLMN for a non-public network service.

Systems, methods, and devices for access control for private slices in a PLMN

Devices, systems and methods for transitioning a UE to a new application server in response to a mobility event comprising, at a source application server handler: receiving an application ID (AC-ID) associated with an application client for a user equipment (UE); receiving a mobility event notification including a UE ID of the UE and a target data network access identifier (DNAI) to indicate a target edge data network to which a transition of a data connection for the application client is to be performed; encoding an outgoing transition request for transmission to a source application server to indicate the transition of the data connection from the source application server; and encoding an incoming transition request for transmission to a target application server handler (ASH) of the target edge data network to indicate the transition of the data connection to the target edge data network.

Methods and apparatus for enabling service continuity in an Edge computing environment

In an example method, a user equipment (UE) determines a first identifier assigned to the UE for use on a first wireless communications network and one or more first time slots for monitoring the first wireless communication networks. The UE determines a second identifier assigned to the UE for use on a second wireless communications network and one or more second time slots for monitoring the second wireless communication networks. The UE determines that the one or more first time slots at least partially overlap the one or more second time slots, and in response, transmits to the second wireless communications network, a request for a third identifier to be assigned to the UE for use on the second wireless communications network and/or a request that the one or more second time slots be offset by an interval of time.

Avoiding paging collisions in a device with multiple subscriptions

Some embodiments of this disclosure include systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer-readable media for use in a wireless network for facilitating Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) services over evolved packet systems. Some embodiments are directed to a method, the method including receiving a registration request from each of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and a UAV controller to establish an Unmanned Aerial System (UAS). Additionally, the method includes initiating a UAS Operation Service Request Procedure via a network exposure function (NEF) and associating the UAV and the UAV controller to operate as the UAS in response to obtaining the results of the UAS operation service authorization from each of the UAV and the UAV controller. Moreover, the method also includes transmitting a UAS operation status update procedure to the UAV and the UAV controller, the update procedure including UAS association information, a UAS policy update, and initiation of a UAS operation.

Relay service is enabled between a residential gateway and a remote user. For example, a 5G residential gateway (5G-RG) may include a relay user equipment (UE) to enable relay service for a 5G core (5GC)-capable UE behind the 5G-RG to connect to the 5GC. The relay UE of the 5G-RG may provide a trusted/untrusted non-3GPP access network for L2 or L3 transport connection to the 5GC-capable UE.

An apparatus and system to enable dynamic offloading and execution of compute tasks are described. In split CU-DU RAN architectures, the CU-CP is connected with multiple compute control functions (CF) and service functions (SF) that have different computing hardware/software capabilities. Different architectures depend on whether the SF is collocated with the CU-UP, the CU-UP and SF only serve compute messages, a compute message is supplied directly to the CU-UP or also traverses the CU-CP. In response to reception from a UE of a compute message containing data for computation being sent to the CU-CP through the DU, the CU-CP sends the data to the SF with identifiers and sends the result to the UE.

Systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for a user equipment (UE) of a wireless communication system. The UE includes a processor circuitry, and radio front end circuitry coupled to the processor circuitry.

The processor circuitry is configured to select either an enhanced packet core (EPC) or a 5G core (5GC) to establish a wireless connection with the core network, based on a first set of CIoT features supported by the EPC and a second set of CIoT features supported by the 5GC received from the core network.
