Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may ascertain an incapability of the network to process a pending uplink signal based on a registration acceptance message from the network. For instance, a registration acceptance message from the network, that may indicate the network is not capable of processing the pending uplink signal service. Accordingly, upon ascertaining the incapability of the network to process the pending uplink signal, the UE may release a connection (e.g., a N1 Non-Access Stratum (NAS) signaling connection) between the UE and the network, where the connection is based on camping of the UE at a cell corresponding to the radio access network (RAN) (e.g., the NG-RAN) of the network. Alternatively, the UE may initiate one of an implementation dependent timer and a release timer (e.g., a T3540 timer) to release the connection (e.g., to release the N1 NAS signaling connection).

Abstract: A method for managing 5G Mobility Management (5GMM) parameters of a Standalone Non Public Network (SNPN) at a User Equipment (UE), the method includes selecting an SNPN identifier (SNPN ID) from among SNPN IDs in a first list, determining whether the first list includes a valid Subscriber Permanent Identifier (SUPI) for the SNPN ID, the first list including SNPN parameter values associated with the SNPN IDs, identifying a first SUPI from a first Universal Subscriber Identifier Module (USIM) of the UE in response to determining that the first list does not include the valid SUPI, generating a first SNPN registration request based on the SNPN ID and the first SUPI to attempt registration with a first SNPN associated with the SNPN ID, and updating a second list with the SNPN ID, the first SUPI, and a SNPN parameter value corresponding to the first SNPN upon successful registration.

Abstract: A method is provided for completing a registration procedure in a fifth generation (5G) network, comprising transmitting, by a user equipment (UE), a registration request message to the 5G network, the registration request message initiating a first registration procedure, starting, by the UE, a connection release timer in response to occurrence of a plurality of events; meeting, by the UE, at least one of a plurality of conditions; stopping, by the UE, the connection release timer in response to the meeting the at least one of the plurality of conditions; and performing, by the UE, a local release of a signaling connection in response to the meeting the at least one of the plurality of conditions if the UE is in a connected state.

Abstract: A method performed by a User Equipment (UE) for managing a failure in a registration for accessing a network slice, and the UE including processing circuitry configured to perform the method, are provided. The method includes sending a registration request message to a first wireless network while the UE is in a tracking area of a registration area, the registration request message including a Single Network Slice Selection Assistance Information (S-NSSAI) corresponding to the network slice, receiving a registration reject message from the first wireless network indicating that the network slice is unavailable, storing a Tracking Area Identifier (TAI) of the tracking area to a rejected list based on the TAI of the tracking area being included the registration reject message, and establishing a connection with a second wireless network in response to the receiving.
