Abstract: Embodiments describing methods performed by a system comprising Network functions including at least a Session Management Function and a User Plane Function for performing a UPF re-anchoring for an application triggered at a User Equipment over an established Packet Data Unit (PDU) Session, where when the system receives the initial trigger for a service triggered by the application (e.g., a DNS request or an application level request), a determination is made by the system based on the information related to the application that re-anchoring of the UPF for that application into a local UPF closer to the UE is required. When re-anchoring of the UPF is successful, the initial trigger is discarded, and the UE is instructed to establish a new PDU session over the local UPF for that application.

One example method, applied to a baseband unit, includes determining, based on a current traffic volume of a cell, a target subframe in which energy saving is required, where the target subframe is a service-idle subframe, and modifying a format of the target subframe, where after modifying the format of the target subframe, each symbol in the target subframe has a same symbol periodicity.

Abstract: Re-anchoring with Session Management Function (SMF) re-selection is disclosed herein. According to some embodiments, if, for an existing User Equipment (UE) Packet Data Unit (PDU) session, an SMF determines that the current PDU Session Anchor (PSA) for the UE PDU Session is to be relocated and further determines that relocation involves an SMF re-selection, then the SMF initiates re-establishment of the PDU session. During re-establishment, the SMF conveys to an Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) Edge Computing (EC) context information relevant for the new PDU session. The AMF in some embodiments may use some of this information related to the location of the PSA (DNAI) to select the new SMF, and passes this information to the selected SMF for the new PDU session. Based on the information received, the new SMF in some embodiments establishes the new PDU session and selects and configures the PSA(s) for the new session.

Abstract: A method of authorizing a device action includes accessing a first baseline model that represents image characteristics of an authorized first user or object. The first baseline model is used as a basis for selecting a first number of sensing structures of a camera image sensor, wherein the first number of sensing structures of the camera image sensor is less than a total number of sensing structures of the camera image sensor. The selected first number of sensing structures of the camera image sensor is activated and a first image sensed by the activated first number of sensing structures is obtaining. The first image is compared with the first baseline model. A next round of authorization processing is activated when an amount of correlation between the first image and the first baseline model satisfies a threshold correlation amount.

Abstract: A network provides PDU sessions between wireless devices and data networks. UPFs in the network handle the user planes of these PDU sessions, while SMFs in the network manage the PDU sessions. The SMFs have dedicated interfaces for signaling sessions to the UPFs. In the occasion that managing of a PDU session has to be transferred from one SMF to another SMF, the first SMF has to release the signalling session with the UPF for the PDU session, and a second SMF has to re-establish the signaling session with the UPF for the same PDU session. To avoid that during the transfer of the management responsibility transfer the wireless device experiences a hick-up in the PDU session the first SMS includes a control element in the release message to the UPF, indicating to the UPF that the signaling session for the PDU session will be re-established by a second SMF, and that the UPF shall continue the handling of the PDU session till re-establishment.

Abstract: For transmitting data between a node (100) of a mobile network and a further node (200), the further node sends downlink data packets to the node (100) of the mobile network. The downlink data packets carry a destination address corresponding to a user equipment (10) connected to the mobile network. For implementing an inband data channel between the node (100) of the mobile network and the further node (200), the further node (200) inserts data destined to the node (100) of the mobile network into at least one of the downlink data packets and marks this downlink data packet as including data destined to the node (100) of the mobile network. The node (100) of the mobile network receives the downlink data packets from the further node (200) and identities, on the basis of the marking, the least one downlink data packet including data destined to the node (100) of the mobile network. The node (100) of the mobile network then extracts the data from the identified downlink data packet.
