Abstract: A Voice Over Wifi (VoWifi) split Protocol Data Unit (PDU) Session handover is provided. In embodiments described herein, a VoWiFi session is established via a Non-3GPP N3IWF over a 5G Core, and a handover to 3GPP access through the 5G System is initiated. During handover and based on local configuration, the Packet Data Network Gateway-Control Plane (PGW-C) and Session Management Function (SMF) (PGW-C+SMF) accepts the PDU Session transfer towards the User Equipment (UE) and Next Generation Radio Access Network (NG-RAN) by means of setting up only the Quality of Service (QoS) Flow associated with a default QoS Rule. The PGW-C+SMF initiates set up of the QoS Flow for Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) voice using the PDU Session Modification procedure after the NG-RAN successfully allocates resources for the transferred PDU Session and the confirmation has reached the PGW-C+SMF.

Abstract: A method, performed by a first node, for handling roaming information. The first node operates in a first communications network. The first node determines a mobility procedure to be used for a device from a second communications network while roaming into the first communications network. The mobility procedure is related to at least one of: a) an Evolved Packet System (EPS) fallback procedure for a non-emergency service, and b) an Emergency Service fallback to EPS procedure. Determining the mobility procedure is based on a preference of the second communications network. The first node then initiates providing an indication of the determined mobility procedure to a second node, which receives the indication and enables usage of the indicated mobility procedure. A third node sends a first indication to the first node indicating the preference.
