    Abstract: A link binding chain is disclosed that enables multiple hops of link bindings to be cascaded to form a chain of link bindings. The binding chain can be leveraged when a one-hop link binding is infeasible or fails to be established. Dynamic binding method switching is disclosed for updating the binding method after a link binding has been established such that the link binding may be selected for a more proper or efficient link binding method to adapt to the changing environment. Methods for broker assisted link binding are disclosed to facilitate link binding functionalities between a source resource and a destination resource that are connected through a binding broker.

    Abstract: The application is at least directed to a core network including a non-transitory memory having instructions stored thereon for registering a network function or network function template in the core network. The network includes a processor, operably coupled to the non-transitory memory. The processor is configured to perform the instruction of determining that registration of the network function or network function template is acceptable. The processor is also configured to perform the instruction of transmitting a message including the network function or network function template to a repository in the core network. The processor is also configured to perform the instruction of verifying the network function or network function template against existing policies in the core network. The processor is also configured to perform the instruction of registering the network function or network function template in the repository after verification. The application is also directed to a core network that discovers a network function or network function template therein. The application is also directed to a core network that instantiates a network function.

    Abstract: It is recognized herein that current cellular radio access technologies lack capabilities for both long range and low power usage devices. Public LPWAN networks are described herein that may use multiple network servers. Further, the network may distribute IoT devices (e.g., LoRa end nodes) across network servers. This may allow the public IoT networks to balance loads across network servers, to allow for redundancy of network servers, to provide differentiated services across network servers, and to permit roaming of end nodes across different public IoT networks, among other things.
