Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatus and computer program products for throttling unattended applications at user devices (e.g., in an effort to limit transmission resource consumption by a user equipment (UE)). According to an aspect, the UE may receive an indication to restrict (throttle down) flow for traffic that appears to be unattended by a user. The UE may determine if a particular application is subject to flow restriction; and restrict flow of uplink traffic generated by the application, if the application is subject to flow restriction. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatuses for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may establish a dynamic coverage enhancement (CE) configuration and then autonomously transition from one CE level to another while in idle mode. The network may blindly detect the CE change during a paging procedure. For example, a mobility management entity (MME) may store dynamic CE information, and it may provide the dynamic CE information to base stations when the UE is paged. In some cases, the base stations may autonomously retransmit paging messages at different CE levels based on the dynamic CE information. In other examples, the MME may direct the base station to retransmit at different CE levels.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for decreasing user plane latency in a wireless communication system. This may include routing a portion of bearer traffic to or from a UE through a local or serving gateway, or within or between base stations, rather than via the core network. In some examples, techniques for selected internet protocol flow ultra-low latency (SIPFULL) for systems in which users may have subscribed to enhanced services may be employed. The network may, for instance, authorize SIPFULL functionalities for UEs per access point name (APN) based on individual services subscribed by the UE to improve overall quality of service (QoS). In some examples, a UEs latency requirements or SIPFULL authorizations may affect mobility operations.
Abstract:
Aspects described herein relate to detecting wireless network services. A network identifier can be determined in a broadcast message received from a network entity, and a connection with a network related to the network entity can be established based at least in part on the network identifier. Using the connection, the network entity can be queried for information related to services available at the network, where the information may indicate one or more subscription providers related to the services.
Abstract:
Techniques are described for traffic volume determination and reporting by an access node and/or a node of a core network in a wireless communications system. One or more wireless connections may be established with a user equipment (UE) to serve one or more streams of traffic using a first cell and a second cell, which may have different cell characteristics. A first traffic volume for the UE may be determined based on traffic volume served over the first cell, and a second traffic volume for the UE may be determined based on traffic volume served over the second cell. A charging data record may be generated based on the first traffic volume and the second traffic volume. Traffic volume served over the first cell then may be charged at a different rate that traffic served over the second cell.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may be receive a grant configuration including multiple set of parameters, and the UE may select a set of parameters from the configured grant based on a channel condition. In some examples, the UE may be configured to signal to a network (e.g., a base station) the selected set of parameters and their corresponding parameter values. For example, the UE may be configured to signal the selected set of parameters over semi-static signaling (e.g., radio resource control (RRC) messaging) or dynamic signaling (e.g., medium access control-control element (MAC-CE) messaging, uplink control information (UCI) messaging, or the like). By configuring the UE with multiple set of parameters, the UE may adapt to changing channel conditions, which may provide higher reliability and lower latency for wireless communications, as well as reduce power consumption for the UE.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network node, an indication of one or more data radio bearers between the UE and the network node that are configured for application data unit (ADU) traffic. The UE may communicate, with an application server, one or more ADU traffic flows through the network node using the one or more data radio bearers. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
The method of wireless communication may include a UE, a base station, and a core network including an AMF. The UE may initiate an update of the paging subgroup ID assigned to the UE by transmitting paging assistance information to the AMF. The paging assistance information may include an expected paging probability of the UE. The base station may initiate an update of the paging subgroup ID assigned to the UE based on the change of RRC connection between the UE and the base station. The core network including the AMF may transmit an updated paging subgroup ID to the UE. The core network including the AMF may configure a set of candidate subgroups associated with the UE, and the base station may update the paging subgroup ID of the UE based on releasing the RRC connection to the RRC inactive state.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may be configured to receive first system information from a base station, the first system information being for reduced-capability UEs including UEs with a bandwidth capability below a threshold, the UE being a reduced-capability UE. The UE may evaluate the first system information for a dedicated field that includes an indicator that additional system information for reduced-capability UEs is to be received in response to on-demand requests. Subsequently, the UE may obtain the additional system information for reduced-capability UEs in accordance with information included in either the dedicated field when the dedicated field is included in the first system information or in a configuration information element of the first system information when the dedicated field is absent from the first system information.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, an AMF may receive, from a user equipment (UE), a communication associated with a request for an identifier. The AMF may transmit, to the UE, the identifier, wherein the identifier is based at least in part on a synchronization signal block (SSB) periodicity and a number of paging frames per discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle. Numerous other aspects are described.
