  • Publication number: 20250106187
    Abstract: A method, a network device, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium are described in relation to a low latency, low loss, and scalable throughput (LI4S)-triggered prioritized connection service. The LI4S-triggered prioritized connection service may enable an evolved packet data gateway (ePDG) to provision prioritized and non-prioritized tunnels with end devices via untrusted wireless local area networks. The prioritized tunnel may support LI4S or another quality of service in which the ePDG may provide prioritized data forwarding. The end device may transmit a request that includes priority data.

  • Publication number: 20240430966
    Abstract: Systems and methods described herein enable 5G core session management function (SMF)/user plan function (UPF) relocation to support ATSSS-enabled evolved packet data gateways (ePDG). An ePDG receives an access traffic steering, switching and splitting (ATSSS) trigger message from a user equipment (UE) device. The UE device is connected via a first session using a session management function (SMF) and a via a second session using a packet data network gateway (PGW). The ATSSS trigger message includes an SMF identifier for the SMF. The ePDG sends, in response to the ATSSS trigger message, a request to the SMF to merge the first session and the second session into a single registration.

  • Patent number: 11849321
    Abstract: Systems and method are provided for a temporary network slice usage barring service within a core network. A network device in the core network receives a slice barring information message for an application function (AF).

The network device stores barring parameters based on the slice barring information message. The barring parameters include a slice identifier associated with the AF, the unique subscriber identifier, and the barring expiration time. The network device sends a barring instruction message to another network device associated with the network slice. The barring instruction message includes the unique subscriber identifier and the barring expiration time. The other network device enforces temporary barring of the UE device from the network slice based on the barring instruction message.
