Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) associated with an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in a cellular terrestrial network may establish a connection with a unified data management (UDM) entity for communications with an unmanned aerial system service supplier (USS). The UE, or an access and mobility management function (AMF), may receive a security configuration from the UDM entity in a non-access stratum transport message. The security configuration may include one or more security credentials that enable communications between the UE and the USS. The AMF may transmit an acknowledgement message indicating the UE successfully received the indication of the security configuration. The UDM may transmit a message to the USS based on receiving the acknowledgment message. The UE may transmit a registration request to the USS. The UE and the USS may communicate according to the security credentials of the security configuration.

Abstract: In one aspect, a method includes determining, by a user equipment (UE), a pair identifier (ID); and transmitting, by the UE, a protocol data unit (PDU) session establishment message and the pair ID. In another aspect, a method include receiving, by a first network entity from a second network entity, a PDU session request message including a pair ID; and associating, by the network entity, a PDU session indicated by the PDU session request message with the pair ID. In yet another aspect, a method includes receiving, by a network entity from a UE, a PDU session establishment message and a pair ID; and transmitting, by the network entity, a PDU session request message responsive to the PDU session establishment message and including the pair ID.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for ensuring compatibility between network slice operating frequencies and user equipment (UE) radio capabilities. An example method generally includes receiving, from a network core entity, a request for information about capabilities of a user equipment (UE) and information about a plurality of network slices in an allowed set of network slices for the UE; identifying, based on UE capability information, a subset of the allowed set of network slices that the UE can use for communications between the UE and the network entity; generating a response including at least the subset of the allowed set of network slices that the UE can use for communications between the UE and the network entity; and transmitting the response to the network core entity.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may determine whether a geographic location code associated with a geographic location of the UE matches a geographic location code in a received message. Based on the determination, the UE may select a non-public network (NPN) function. Additionally or alternatively, a UE may discover or select an NPN function based on determining that legal requirements, such as one or more interception conditions, are independent of the geographic location of the UE. For example, the UE may discover and one or more NPN functions according to a query performed using an NPN function identifier or an NPN identifier. The UE may determine that the NPN function selection (e.g., for a geographic location of the UE) is independent of an interception condition (e.g., associated with the geographic location of the UE).

The UE may communicate, in the second mode, with the base station to establish a connection with the cell based at least in part on at least one of: the UE supporting one or more capabilities associated with connecting with the cell, or no cells that support reduced capability UEs being available. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: A method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided for a network entity. The network entity receives an analytics request from a consumer, the analytics request indicating at least one analytic and determines one or more network data analytics functions (NWDAFs) for the analytics request based on the at least one analytic indicated in the analytics request. A consumer sends an analytics request to a network entity including one or more analytics identifiers. The consumer receives, from the network entity, a response to the analytics request including an analytics output from one or more NWDAFs based on the analytics identifier(s) included in the analytics request. An NWDAF sends an analytics identifier registration to a network entity indicating one or more analytics supported by the NWDAF. Then, the NWDAF receives an analytics request(s) from consumer(s) via the network entity based on the NWDAF supporting an analytic in the analytics request.

An exemplary method that may be performed by a UE includes receiving an indication that a network slice is not available, entering a connection management idle (CM-IDLE) state, and initiating a registration procedure with an access and mobility management function (AMF) subsequent to entering the CM-IDLE state.

Abstract: A method of wireless communication by a UE (user equipment) includes transmitting a list to an IMS (IP multimedia subsystem) service center. The list includes multiple mobile station international subscriber directory numbers (MSISDNs). The method also includes receiving a paging message indicating different causes for the paging message. A method of wireless communications by a network determines whether a call initiator is in a list received from a UE (user equipment) in response to receiving a mobile terminated call for the UE. The list comprises multiple mobile station international subscriber directory numbers (MSISDNs). The network also transmits a message to the UE indicating whether the mobile terminated call is from one of the MSISDNs in the list.

Abstract: Certain aspects provide a method for wireless communication. The method generally includes deriving a network specific identifier (NSI) in a network access identifier (NAI) format, the NSI including a network identifier (NID) stored at the UE, generating a subscription concealed identifier (SUCI) based on the NSI for authentication of the UE with a non-public network (NPN), and sending the SUCI to a network entity for the authentication of the UE with the NPN.

Abstract: Techniques are described for supporting satellite wireless access for a user equipment (UE) using fixed tracking areas (TAs). TA identities (TAIs) are broadcast in a satellite radio cell by a base station indicating which TAs are covered by the radio cell. A UE can access a radio cell if at least one broadcast TAI is not forbidden for the UE. A base station provides the TAIs broadcast in a radio cell and a TAI for a TA in which a UE is located to a core network node to support access by the UE. The core network node uses the broadcast TAIs to decide whether UE access is allowed and uses the broadcast TAIs and the TAI to assign a UE registration area. The UE may transfer all the broadcast TAIs to a forbidden TAI list if UE access is rejected by the core network node.

Abstract: Techniques are described to support call routing and location for a user equipment (UE) with satellite wireless access to a serving PLMN. The UE sends a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) INVITE message to a network node, such as a P-CSCF, that includes an indication of satellite access for the UE. In response the network node sends a request to another network node for a cell ID for a fixed cell in which the UE is located. The fixed cell can be independent of satellite radio cells for the serving PLMN. The network node may receive the cell ID for the fixed cell and sends the SIP INVITE message to another network node (e.g., an E-CSCF or LRF) with the cell ID for the fixed cell. The other network node may use the cell ID to route the SIP INVITE message or obtain an approximate location of the UE.

Abstract: Aspects described herein relate to communicating with one or more cells for receiving a multicast and/or broadcast service (MBS), and providing MBS continuity in device mobility scenarios. In an aspect, one or more cells for reselection from a current cell can be detected, where the current cell supports a UE interested MBS. The one or more cells can be evaluated for reselection based at least in part on whether the one or more cells support the UE interested MBS to determine a target cell for reselection. Cell reselection can be performed to the target cell.

Abstract: Aspects described herein relate to communicating with one or more cells for receiving a broadcast service, and providing broadcast service continuity in device mobility scenarios. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) can transmit a broadcast service interest indication to a serving cell to facilitate receiving the broadcast service during mobility to provide the broadcast service continuity.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication that over come problems associated with conventional approaches including load balancing and handover efficiency issues. In one aspect a wireless communication technique takes into account the load of a donor gNB before a relay decides to reselect from one donor gNB to another. In another aspect, a wireless communication technique ensures that relays are handed over to base stations that will be able to serve the relay as the mobile relay continues to follow its expected path (e.g. streets or tracks).
