Abstract: A UE transmits a first message including a request to establish communication based on a first communication session type and a first set of one or more session attributes associated with the first message. The UE receives a second message including an indication that the request to establish communication using the first communication session type is rejected. After receiving the second message, the UE removes from use, a retransmission of the first communication session type and the first set of one or more session attributes for establishing communication, and transmits a third message including a request for communication based on a second communication session type and a second set of one or more session attributes, associated with the third message. A combination of the first communication session type and the first set, is not identical to a second combination including the second communication session type and the second set.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for roaming of multicast MBS services. One method may include receiving, by a user equipment attached to a public land mobile network as an inbound roamer, a service announcement for a broadcast session or service class indicating whether inbound roamers are allowed to access the broadcast service or service class; determining, based on the service announcement, whether the user equipment is allowed to access a broadcast session or service class in the public land mobile network; and in response to determining that the user equipment is allowed to access a broadcast session or service class in the public land mobile network, transmitting, by the user equipment, a multicast/broadcast service interest indication associated with the broadcast session or service class upon completion of a radio resource request.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for roaming of multicast MBS services. One method may include attaching, by a user equipment, to a visited public land mobile network as inbound roamer. The user equipment then receives a service announcement comprising at least one of a multicast service session allowed to be accessed by inbound roamers indication or multicast service class. The user equipment determines whether the user equipment is allowed to access a multicast session or multicast service class in the visited public land mobile network. The user equipment transmits, in response to determining that the user equipment is allowed to access, a request to join a multicast session comprising an identifier of the multicast session and/or a multicast service class. The user equipment receives an indication of an acceptance or rejection of the request to join the multicast session.

Abstract: A H-SMF receives, from a V-SMF in a VPLMN, a join request originating from a UE roaming in the VPLMN to join a multicast multicast and broadcast services (MBS) session, and determines whether the UE is authorized to join the multicast MBS session based upon a local configuration in a home public land mobile network, information received from an application function during establishment of the multicast MBS session, and/or user subscription data received from a user data manager. The H-SMF at least one of: transmits to the V-SMF, if the UE is authorized, an acceptance response configured to establish at least one unicast QoS flow corresponding to multicast QoS flow information received from a H-MB-SMF, or, if the UE is not authorized, a rejection response comprising error cause information indicating that the UE is not authorized to join while roaming.

Abstract: A power supply unit comprises holdup circuitry and a controller. The holdup circuitry comprises a supply line, a ground line, a first holdup capacitor, a second holdup capacitor, and switching circuitry. The switching circuitry switches the holdup circuitry between a first configuration in which the first holdup capacitor and second holdup capacitor are coupled in parallel between the supply line and the ground line and a second configuration in which the first holdup capacitor and second holdup capacitor are coupled in series between the supply line and the ground line. The controller is configured to detect that an output voltage of the holdup circuitry has dropped to a threshold voltage and, in response, control the switching circuitry to cause the holdup circuitry to change from the first configuration to the second configuration.

Abstract: Described are apparatuses, methods, and computer program products for enabling splitting, switching, and steering of access traffic in a system, e.g., a fifth-generation (5G) system. Access and mobility management functions (AMF) of the 5G system forward one or more of the registration requests to unified data management (UDM) functions of the PLMNs. UDM function determines whether evolved packet system (EPS) interworking (IWK) is allowed for respective registration requests based on subscription, deployment, system capabilities, a radio access technology (RAT) of an access path between the UE and the 5G system, etc. UE can include an indication that EPS IWK is requested and/or required in a registration request.
