Publication number: 20200267783Abstract: A method of handling mapped EPS bearer context with duplicate EPS bearer ID (EBI) for 5GS to EPS inter-system change enhancement is proposed. UE is provided with a mapped EPS bearer context IE by the network to create a new mapped EPS bearer associated with a PDU session. UE detects collision of the new mapped EPS bearer—it has the same EBI as an existing EPS bearer. Upon successfully process the create request, UE either replaces the existing EPS bearer with the new mapped EPS bearer, or deletes the EPS bearer with duplicate EBI by explicit signaling to the network. As a result, when inter-system change from 5G to EPS happens, there is no EPS collision.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 17, 2020Publication date: August 20, 2020Inventors: Chien-Chun Huang-Fu, Chi-Hsien Chen, Shang-Ru Mo

Publication number: 20200228443Abstract: A method of handling QoS flow descriptions with invalid EPS bearer context is proposed. During an EPS bearer activation or modification procedure, a UE may receive an ePCO/PCO IE for creating a new QoS flow description or modifying an existing QoS flow description. if UE detects that the to be created/modified QoS flow descriptions are associated with invalid EPS bearer context, then UE does, not create/modify the QoS flow descriptions. Instead, UE locally deletes the QoS flow descriptions provided by the network. In addition, UE indicates a 5GSM cause to the network via PCO/ePCO. As a result, when inter-system change from EPS to 5GS happens, UE no longer needs to handle the QoS flow descriptions with invalid EPS bearer context.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2020Publication date: July 16, 2020Inventors: Chien-Chun Huang-Fu, Chi-Hsien Chen, Shang-Ru Mo

Publication number: 20200162968Abstract: A method of handling mapped Evolved Packet System (EPS) bearer context for invalid QoS flow description is proposed. During a PDU session establishment procedure or a PDU session modification procedure, a UE may receive a mapped EPS bearer context IE for creating a new mapped EPS bearer of a PDU session. If there is no corresponding QoS flow description associated to the new mapped EPS bearer, e.g., if there is no corresponding authorized QoS flow description IE in the PDU session establishment accept message or in the PDU session modification command message, then the UE should send another PDU session modification request message to the network to delete the new mapped EPS bearer context.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 18, 2019Publication date: May 21, 2020Inventors: Chien-Chun Huang-Fu, Shang-Ru Mo, Chi-Hsien Chen

Publication number: 20200162958Abstract: A method of handling insufficient resources in a user equipment (UE) during a PDU session establishment procedure is proposed. During a PDU session establishment procedure, UE sends a PDU SESSION ESTABLISHMENT REQUEST message to the network. UE then receives a PDU SESSION ESTABLISHMENT ACCEPT message from the network, the ACCEPT message carries various PDU session parameters including authorized QoS rules and QoS flows. If UE decides to reject the addition of the new authorized QoS flow description or the new authorized QoS rule due to lack of resources, UE may initiate a PDU session release procedure with 5G session management (5GSM) cause IE #26 “insufficient resources”. In an alternative embodiment, UE may synchronize with the network by sending a PDU session modification request message to delete certain QoS rules/flow descriptions with 5GSM cause IE #26 “insufficient resources”.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 18, 2019Publication date: May 21, 2020Inventors: Chien-Chun Huang-Fu, Chi-Hsien Chen, Shang-Ru Mo

Publication number: 20200053596Abstract: A method of QoS rule management with enhanced handling on QoS flow description is proposed. UE checks QoS configuration received from the network for QoS operation errors. When UE receives a QoS rule associated with a specific QFI but has no QoS flow description for the QFI, UE further determines whether the QoS rule is of a GBR QoS flow. If so, UE detects a QoS operation error. If the QoS rule is the default QoS rule, then UE releases the PDU session. If the QoS rule is not the default QoS rule, then UE either rejects a PDU session modification command that carries the QoS rule or deletes the QoS rule carried by a PDU session establishment accept with a 5GSM cause value indicating the QoS operation error.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 2, 2019Publication date: February 13, 2020Inventors: Chien-Chun Huang-Fu, Chi-Hsien Chen, Shang-Ru Mo

Publication number: 20200053819Abstract: A method of 5G session management (5GSM) state mapping is proposed when interworking. For each PDU session in 5GSM state of PDU SESSION active, PDU SESSION MODIFICATION PENDING, or PDU SESSION INACTIVE PENDING, UE maps the PDU session to a PDN connection in 4G ESM state BEARER CONTEXT ACTIVE. For any other PDU session in 5GSM state of PDU SESSION inactive, or PDU SESSION ACTIVE PENDING, UE maps the PDU session to a PDN connection in 4G ESM state BEARER CONTEXT INACTIVE.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 6, 2019Publication date: February 13, 2020Inventors: Chien-Chun Huang-Fu, Yu-Chieh Tien, Shang-Ru Mo, Chi-Hsien Chen

Publication number: 20200008268Abstract: A method for Procedure Transaction Identity (PTI) exception handling on protocol data unit (PDU) session modification and establishment procedure is proposed. If a UE receives a PDU SESSION MODIFICATION COMMAND message in which the PTI value is an assigned value that does not match any PTI in use, the UE stays in the current 5GSM state and sends a 5GSM STATUS message including 5GSM cause #47 “PTI mismatch”, and the network will send another COMMAND message with the correct PTI value. If the UE receives a PDU SESSION ESTABLISHMENT ACCEPT or REJECT message in which the PTI value is an assigned value that does not match any PTI in use, the UE responds with a 5GSM STATUS message including 5GSM cause #47 “PTI mismatch”, and the network will send another ACCEPT or REJECT message with the correct PTI value.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2019Publication date: January 2, 2020Inventors: Chien-Chun Huang-Fu, Yu-Chieh Tien, Chi-Hsien Chen, Shang-Ru Mo

Publication number: 20190313262Abstract: A PDU session and QoS flow handling mechanism is proposed when a QoS flow of a PDU session does not have a mapping DRB after a handover or a service request procedure. If the QoS flow is associated with a default QoS rule, the UE can locally release the PDU session, initiate a PDU session release procedure, send a 5GSM status message with proper cause, or assume the PDU session is not reactivated. On the other hand, if the QoS flow is not associated with a default QoS rule, the UE can locally delete the QoS flow, delete the QoS flow by using a PDU session modification procedure, or send a 5GSM status message with proper cause.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 3, 2019Publication date: October 10, 2019Inventors: Chia-Chun Huang-Fu, Chi-Hsien Chen, Shang-Ru Mo
