Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for communicating service type in a paging message for cellular communication (e.g., 4G, 5G). This enables the radio network and user equipment (UE) to be aware of the paging service type and prioritize the most critical signaling events. Initially, a service indication flag is received from one or more of: a radio resource control message from a UE of the one or more UEs; a S1-AP message from a Mobile Management Entity; or a Next Generation Application Protocol message from an Access and Mobility Management Function. Based on the service indication flag, a service type of a terminating service that is causing the UE to be paged is determined. Based on the determined service type, resources can be allocated for the UE.
