  • Publication number: 20230234130
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a gas permeable metal is provided. First a plurality of metal powder particles is spread out tightly to form a first deposited layer and a second deposited layer is formed over the first deposited layer. Then scan the first and the second deposited layers along a plurality of parallel and spaced linear paths. A gap is formed by a difference between a width of melt pool and a linear distance between the two adjacent linear paths. The linear paths of the first and the second deposited layers are arranged with an angle therebetween. The gaps of the first and the second deposited layers are crossed over to form pores distributed like a grid graph. A plurality of the first and the second deposited layers are stacked and the pores are aligned to form continuous pore channels. Thereby the metal with good venting is produced conveniently.

  • Publication number: 20230232359
    Abstract: A method of handling UE Route Selection Policy (URSP) rules received from a non-subscribed Stand-alone Non-public Network (SNPN) registered using credentials from a credentials holder (CH) is provided. UE may be pre-configured with URSP rules by UE home network or UE may first registers to a home network and obtain signaled URSP rules from the home network. Later on, UE may register to a non-subscribed SNPN using credentials from a CH. Before establishing a PDU session, UE checks the corresponding URSP rules that can be used in the SNPN. If UE is signaled with URSP rules by the registered non-subscribed SNPN, then UE can use URSP rules in the following priority order: 1) URSP rules signaled from the non-subscribed SNPN, 2) URSP rules signaled from the home network, and 3) URSP rules pre-configured by the home network.

  • Publication number: 20230232323
    Abstract: A method of provisioning UE Route Selection Policy (URSP) rules received from a non-subscribed Stand-alone Non-public Network (SNPN) registered using credentials from a credentials holder (CH) is provided. After a UE register to the non-subscribed SNPN using credentials from the CH, the UE may establish a PDU session for accessing services n the SNPN. Prior to establishing the PDU session, the UE checks the corresponding URSP rules that can be used in the SNPN. If the UE is signaled with URSP rules by the registered non-subscribed. SNPN, UE should store the URSP rules and then apply those URSP rules for PDU session establishment when the UE access the services in the non-subscribed SNPN.

  • Publication number: 20230217540
    Abstract: A method for handling a PDU session release command for releasing an MA PDU session with a PDN connection established as user-plane resource on 3GPP access is proposed. For an MA PDU session with both EPS/4G 3GPP leg and 5GS non-3GPP leg, if UE/NW wants to release the MA PDU session, UE/NW needs to initiate two procedures. First/Second, to release the EPS 3GPP leg, UE/NW should initiate a PDN disconnect procedure/deactivate EPS bearer context procedure or a detach procedure. Second/First, to release the 5GS non-3GPP leg, UE/NW should initiate a PDU session release procedure. The UE/NW can also initiate two procedures simultaneously. It is also possible that the UE initiates one procedure and the NW initiates the other procedure.
