Abstract: A user device for implementing error handling is provided. The user device comprises a control unit that establishes, in a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session establishment procedure using a Local Area Data Network (LADN) Data Network Name (DNN), a PDU session for the LADN; and a transceiver unit that prohibits transmission of a PDU session modification request message for the PDU session, in a PDU session modification procedure, based on reception of a specific cause value, wherein the LADN DNN is provided by the user device in the PDU session establishment procedure.

Abstract: In response to receiving from a requesting entity (2) a request for a connection to an entity providing a service in an edge data network (4), a first server (7) attempts to identify a second server (5) located in the edge data network (7) based on at least one selection criterion. If the second server (4) cannot be identified or is not available, the first server (7) identifies a second alternative server that is different from the second server, or identify a first alternative server that substitutes for the first server (7) for attempting to identify the second server. This can contribute, for example, to mitigating the impact of failing to discover one or more preferred edge servers for a User Equipment (UE).

Abstract: In response to receiving from a requesting entity (2) a request for a connection to an entity providing a service in an edge data network (4), a first server (7) attempts to identify a second server (5) located in the edge data network (7) based on at least one selection criterion. The at least one selection criterion includes a congestion state of a server located within the edge data network (4). If the second server (5) is identified, the first server (7) sends information about the second server (5) to the requesting entity (2). If the second server (5) cannot be identified, the first server (7) sends to the requesting entity (2) a rejection message indicating that the second server (5) cannot be identified. This can contribute, for example, to providing a suitable selection criterion for identifying an edge server.

The UE uses a first access network for the first emergency call connection attempt, and the UE uses a second access network for the second emergency call connection attempt. Thus, for a 5th Generation (5G) mobile communication system corresponding to a next generation mobile communication system, a control method is provided that is performed by a user equipment, an access network apparatus, a core network apparatus, and an IMS apparatus to allow the user equipment to connect to a network suitable for an emergency notification service.

The UE comprises: when a timer for a Single Network Slice Selection Assistance Information (S-NSSAI) and a Data Network Name (DNN) is operating, the transmission/reception unit initiates an Evolved Packet System (EPS) Session Management (ESM) procedure in the EPS by using a Access Point Name (APN); the APN is same as the DNN; and the transmission/reception unit receives a value of the timer in a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session establishment reject message.

Abstract: A UE (1) receives, from a network (9, B), control information indicating an association of each of at least one Closed Access Group (CAG) ID with at least one network slice identifier. The UE (1) performs cell selection or cell reselection using the received control information.

Abstract: A core network node (3) stores a first association between a plurality of Home PLMN S-NSSAIs and a Serving PLMN S-NSSAI. The first association includes a second association between the Serving PLMN S-NSSAI and a Home PLMN S-NSSAI that is not subject to NSSAA, and a third association between the Serving PLMN S-NSSAI and another Home PLMN S-NSSAI subject to NSSAA. If a UE (1) does not support NSSAA feature and if a part of multiple Home PLMN S-NSSAIs presented by the UE (1) is included in the second association and the rest is included in the third association, the core network node sends information containing the second association to the UE (1). This can allow, for example, proper notification of information about a Mapped S-NSSAI available to a UE that does not support NSSAA.

This can contribute, for example, to achieving registration management adapted to various restrictions on the use of network slices.

Abstract: A communication terminal (1) receives a first Single NSSAI (S-NSSAI) included in a configuration update command message, and stores the first S-NSSAI into Rejected NSSAI. In addition, the communication terminal (1) receives a second S-NSSAI included in an Extended rejected NSSAI information element. For example, this allows the communication terminal (1) to properly manage or update its NSSAI storage, when multiple Mapped S-NSSAIs are associated with a single Serving PLMN S-NSSAI and part or all of the multiple Mapped S-NSSAIs are subject to NSSAA.

Abstract: A User Equipment (UE) includes: a transmitter configured to transmit, in a case that a timer is running for a piece of Single Network Slice Selection Assistance Information (S-NSSAI) at a time when a Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) is changed, a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session establishment request message for an identical piece of S-NSSAI in a changed PLMN without stopping the timer. This configuration allows for provision of a communication control method for the terminal to apply congestion managements expected by the network to the congestion managements applied by the network in 5G congestion management to which multiple congestion managements are applied.

Abstract: An AMF node (2) manages a UE context regarding a UE (1). The UE context includes a) a set of allowed network slice identifiers indicating one or more network slice identifiers currently allowed to the UE (1), and b) a set of pending network slice identifiers indicating one or more network slice identifiers for which a Network Slice-Specific Authentication and Authorization (NSSAA) procedure is pending. If the AMF (2) triggers initiation of a re-authentication and re-authorization procedure for a first network slice identifier currently allowed to the UE (1), it removes the first network slice identifier from the allowed set and store the same in the pending set. This, for example, allows the AMF to manage the UE context appropriately.
