Abstract
The system obtains an access class associated with a UE, where the access class indicates whether the UE is authorized to communicate with a satellite, and stores the access class at the UE. The system obtains broadcast information from the satellite, where the broadcast information indicates one or more access classes authorized to communicate with the satellite. The system determines whether the access class stored at the UE is included in the one or more access classes authorized to communicate with the satellite. Upon determining that the access class is not included in the one or more access classes, the system reduces communication with the satellite by refraining from sending a request to connect to the satellite. Upon determining that the access class is included in the one or more access classes, the system sends the request to connect to the satellite.
