    Abstract: Techniques discussed herein facilitate configuration of network slices for a User Equipment (UE) supporting constraints on simultaneous operation of slices. One example embodiment is a UE device configured to: transmit a registration request message to request registration on a set of requested network slices; and receive a registration accept message indicating the UE is registered to a set of allowed network slices, and wherein the registration accept message indicates slice compatibility information for each allowed network slice of the set of allowed network slices for the UE, wherein the slice compatibility information for each allowed network slice indicates whether or not other configured network slices of the set of configured network slices are compatible with the configured network slice for simultaneous operation by the UE.

    Abstract: The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods that support discontinuous network coverage. In an example, a UE and a network exchange information indicating a capability for using a control plane, a user plane, a short message service, and/or an operation and maintenance server for the transfer of coverage data of a non-terrestrial network indicating when and/or where non terrestrial network coverage can be available to the UE. Based on this information, the coverage data is provisioned on the UE and in the access and mobility function (AMF) in the network. Thereafter, the UE can determine when the UE is in the coverage area of the non-terrestrial network and can connect to a network node thereof, such as a base station.

    Abstract: A technique for establishing a voice call including receiving an indication that the first wireless system supports emergency service fallback, receiving an indication to establish an emergency voice call, transmitting an emergency service request to the first wireless system, determining that an unexpected error has occurred, selecting a second wireless system based on the determination that the unexpected error has occurred, and connecting to the second wireless system to complete the emergency voice call. Additionally, a technique for cancelling a voice call including receiving an indication that the first wireless system supports emergency service fallback, receiving an indication to establish an emergency voice call, transmitting an emergency service request to the first wireless system, receiving an indication to cancel the emergency voice call, and cancelling a connection to a second wireless system.
