Abstract: The present application relates to improving coverage and reliability of cellular emergency service. In an example, a relay UE is authorized by a core network to provide a U2N relay for emergency services, where this authorization is based on UE capability information sent to the core network indicating the support of U2N relay emergency functionalities. During a U2N relay discovery, the relay UE indicates, to a remote UE, that this capability can be provided. Accordingly, the remote UE selects the relay UE from a candidate set of relay UEs and a relay communication is established.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for dynamically enabling and disabling one or more of a multimedia priority service (MPS) and a mission critical service (MCS) are disclosed. In some embodiments, a user equipment device (UE) comprises: at least one antenna; at least one radio coupled to at least one antenna, wherein at least one radio is configured to perform cellular communication; and one or more processors coupled to the at least one radio, wherein the one or more processors and at least one radio are configured to dynamically enable and disable use of a service from a group of services that includes a MPS and MCS.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and configurations to implement trusted connections within wireless networks and associated devices and systems are generally disclosed herein. In some examples, a wireless local area network (WLAN) may be attached to a 3GPP evolved packet core (EPC) as a trusted access network, without use of an evolved packet data gateway (ePDG) and overhead from related tunneling and encryption. Information to create the trusted attachment between a mobile device and a WLAN may be exchanged using Access Network Query Protocol (ANQP) extensions defined by IEEE standard 802.11u-2011, or using other protocols or standards such as DHCP or EAP. A trusted WLAN container with defined data structure fields may be transferred in the ANQP elements to exchange information used in the establishment and operation of the trusted attachment.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for protection of a user equipment (UE) parameter update (UPU) header protection. An example method can include generating, for transmission to an access and mobility management function (AMF) of a network, a first message that includes an indication as to whether a UE supports protection of a UPU header. The method can further include processing, a second message from the network from the network, the second message including UE configuration parameters comprising a UPU transparent container including a UPU header and UPU data, the UPU header protected based at least in part on the indication.

Abstract: The present application relates to user equipment (UE) aggregation. For instance, a UE aggregation group is defined based on a subscription of multiple UEs with a network. Configuration information identifying the UE aggregation group, its member UEs, the role of each UE (e.g., whether a group leader or, otherwise, a group member), and/or radio access capability signaling (RACS) is stored. Upon a registration of a UE, the UE aggregation group is indicated to the network. The network then enables an aggregated communication capability to the UEs of the UE aggregation group based on the configuration information.
