Abstract: A network node includes: a reception unit configured to receive a registration request from a terminal; a transmission unit configured to transmit information indicating withholding of a registration acceptance to the terminal; and a control unit configured to perform verification related to a requirement of the terminal to be connected to a network. In a case where the verification by the control unit is successful, the registration of the terminal is accepted, and, in a case where the verification fails, the registration of the terminal is not accepted.

Abstract: A network node that transfers a signal between a service-user-side network node and a service-provider-side network node includes: a reception section that receives a first control signal including information indicating an application of connection requested by the service-user-side network node; a control section that determines whether the connection for the application is permitted; and a transmission section that transmits a second control signal including information indicating a result of the determination to the service-user-side network node.

Abstract: A network node includes a receiving unit configured to receive, from a management node, information for improving security of communication between network nodes, and a control unit configured to receive a request transmitted from a first network node arranged in a first PLMN (Public Land Mobile Network) based on the information for improving security, and transmit the request to a second network node arranged in a second PLMN.

Abstract: An access control apparatus including: a reception unit; and a control unit configured to store, in a buffer, data transmitted from a terminal from when the reception unit receives a first message indicating that an application server is to be switched until when the reception unit receives a second message indicating move completion of an application context.

Abstract: A network node includes a receiver configured to receive, from a user equipment, a message requesting an initial registration or a location registration from a user equipment; and a transmitter configured to transmit a message to the user equipment when the user equipment is disallowed to connect to any one of one or more network slices, the message allowing the initial registration or the location registration including information related to a connection restriction that causes the user equipment to transition into a state in which the user equipment is registered and the user equipment is not allowed to use a service.

Abstract: A network node is a first network node in a VPLMN (Visited Public land mobile network), the network node including a receiving unit configured to receive information relating to network selection, from a second network node in an HPLMN (Home Public land mobile network); a transmitting unit configured to transmit the information relating to network selection, to a user equipment; and a control unit configured to transmit, to the second network node, a response indicating that the user equipment was unable to receive the information relating to network selection, when a response, with respect to the information relating to network selection transmitted to the user equipment, is not received from the user equipment.

Abstract: A user equipment includes a receiving unit configured to receive, from a network node in a VPLMN (Visited Public land mobile network), information indicating a PLMN to be prioritized and information indicating a trigger of PLMN selection; and a control unit configured to execute the PLMN selection, based on the information indicating the PLMN to be prioritized and the information indicating the trigger of the PLMN selection.

Abstract: In 5G cell (230) of 5G system (200), upon detecting that access to the 5G system (200) is barred, the 5G system (200) is congested, 5G core network (220) of the 5G system (200) does not support IMS-type communication service, or fallback to 4G system (300) is instructed, UE (100) selects 4G cell (330) of the 4G system (300) as a target cell for connection. The UE (100) transmits a connection request signal for the IMS-type communication service to the target cell for connection.

Abstract: A network node includes: a transmission unit configured to register a terminal to a UDR (User Data Repository); a reception unit configured to receive, from the UDR, information for identifying the UDR as a response to registration of the terminal; and a control unit configured to associate the terminal and the information for identifying the UDR with a first time at which the terminal is registered to the UDR to be stored. In a case where an error indication of the UDR is received by the reception unit, the control unit determines whether or not a re-registration of the terminal is needed, based on a time included in the error indication and the first time.

Abstract: An NSSF (69) includes: a selection unit selecting a slice corresponding to a service related to a request from a terminal (10) and a target processing server corresponding to the slice based on slice correspondence information including information where a slice, a processing server corresponding to the slice, and a service used by a terminal are associated with one another; and a notification unit notifying an AMF (30) of selection result including information regarding the slice and target processing server. The AMF includes: a determination processing unit determining whether the AMF is a target processing server based on information on the target processing server in the selection result information, and performing processing for a service when the AMF is the target processing server, or transferring a request for processing for a service to the target processing server when the AMF is not the target processing server.

Abstract: A disclosed user device includes a receiver configured to receive emergency information from a network; and a control unit configured to change a process of detecting whether first emergency information is duplicated with second emergency information upon receiving, by the receiver, the second emergency information after the first emergency information, based on the first emergency information.
