Abstract: In response to receiving from a source RAN node (2), on a direct interface (101), a message requesting a handover of a radio terminal (1) from a first network to a second network, a target RAN node (3) receives at least one of slice information and flow information from a core network (5), and controls communication of the radio terminal (1) based on at least one of the slice information and the flow information. The slice information relates to a network slice in the second network. The flow information relates to at least one session to be established in the second network, serving as a bearer-less network, in order to transfer at least one packet flow of the radio terminal (1). It is thus possible, for example, to provide an Inter-RAT handover procedure involving transfer of handover signaling messages on a direct inter-base-station interface.

An Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) node initiates a UAV Authentication and Authorization (UUAA-MM) procedure, receive a DEREGISTRATION REQUEST message in a UE-initiated de-registration procedure from an Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle (UAV), abort the UUAA-MM procedure in response to the receipt of the DEREGISTRATION REQUEST message, and proceed with the UE-initiated de-registration procedure when the AMF node receives the DEREGISTRATION REQUEST message. This allows the AMF to appropriately handle a collision between, for example, the UUAA procedure and other mobility management procedures.

Abstract: The object detection means, when given a frame, derives a bounding box of a detection target object from within the frame based on a learning model that includes multiple layers, and defines output data of one layer in the learning model or the frame itself as a feature value of the frame.
