    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that supports connectivity to a core network via an access network. A user equipment (UE) may establish connectivity with an access network and perform a discovery procedure to identify and select a packet data gateway that provides connectivity to a core network via a core network node. The UE may perform an authentication procedure with the core network node via the packet data gateway to be authenticated with the core network for establishing connectivity with the packet data gateway. The UE may receive a set of control plane addressing information via the packet data gateway corresponding to a secure tunnel established between the UE and the packet data gateway. The UE may perform an attach procedure via the secure tunnel with the core network node without re-authenticating the UE.

    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for supporting inter-RAT mobility of a UE in an eCall-only mode. In an aspect, the UE establishes a communication session for an eCall or a test/reconfiguration call, releases the communication session for the eCall or test/reconfiguration call, starts a timer based on at least one of (i) release, by the UE, of a PS signaling connection for a UMTS access for the communication session, (ii) expiration at the UE of a READY timer for GPRS, wherein the READY timer was started by the UE following a PS handover of the communication session from an LTE access to a GSM-GPRS access, (iii) intersystem change by the UE from an LTE access to a GSM-GPRS access or a UMTS access, or (iv) intersystem change by the UE from a GSM access or a UMTS access to an LTE access, and performs an eCall inactivity procedure when the timer expires.

    Abstract: A method, operational at a device, includes receiving at least one packet belonging to a first set of packets of a packet flow marked with an identification value, determining that the at least one packet is marked with the identification value, determining to change a quality of service (QoS) treatment of packets belonging to the first set of packets marked with the identification value that are yet to be received, and sending a request to change the QoS treatment of packets belonging to the first set of packets marked with the identification value that are yet to be received to trigger a different QoS treatment of packets within the packet flow, responsive to determining to change the QoS treatment. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
