Abstract
Techniques of preserving UE and network resources while performing a paging procedure during cell congestion includes a network node informing a UE if the cell to which the UE is attempting to access is too congested to serve the UE. When a gNB, serving a cell, receives a paging request for the gNB to serve a UE, the gNB first performs a pro-active admission control operation to determine whether there are sufficient resources to serve the UE. When there is too much congestion, the gNB may not admit the UE to the cell and sends RAN raging with a paging flag indicating that the gNB will not serve the UE. The UE in response does not trigger a service request, but rather sends an ACK paging over RRC to the gNB, which in turn notifies the AMF of non-service and that the UE is present.
