  • Patent number: 12075526
    Abstract: A wireless User Equipment (UE) delivers a priority communication service. In the UE, circuitry correlates a network Identifier (ID) for a wireless communication network with an instruction for the priority communication service. The circuitry identifies a user request for the priority communication service when the wireless UE is wirelessly attached to the wireless communication network. In response, the circuitry responsively identifies the instruction based on the correlation with the network ID. The circuitry exchanges network signaling with a radio based on the instruction and exchanges user data with the radio responsive to the exchange of the network signaling. The radio exchanges the network signaling and the user data with the UE circuitry and wirelessly exchanges the network signaling and the user data with the wireless communication network. The instruction may direct the circuitry to use an encoded public Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) to identify the UE to the wireless communication network.
