Abstract

A method of registering to slices with mapped S-NSSAI alone in a 5GS is described. The method can include, upon a UE entering a VPLMN, the UE having a first PDN connection or a first PDU session that is to be transferred to the VPLMN and associated with a first HPLMN S-NSSAI, determining whether the UE has a first VPLMN S-NSSAI applicable in the VPLMN corresponding to the first HPLMN S-NSSAI. If not, a registration request message can be transmitted to the VPLMN. The registration request message can include the first HPLMN S-NSSAI as a first mapped S-NSSAI for indicating a slice of the VPLMN to which the UE intends to register.
