SERVICE ACCESS RESTRICTION ENHANCEMENTS FOR 5G NEW RADIO (NR) - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240080790 titled 'SERVICE ACCESS RESTRICTION ENHANCEMENTS FOR 5G NEW RADIO (NR)

Simplified Explanation

The disclosure describes techniques to resolve UE behavior for several SAR use cases, specifically focusing on substate selection for a UE with a valid SAR list. The UE may be camped on a cell in the registered PLMN or an equivalent PLMN, with conflicting requirements for substate selection.

• The disclosure addresses gaps in functionality and certain use cases related to substate selection for UEs with valid SAR lists.
• Conflicting requirements for substate selection by UEs camped on cells in registered PLMNs or equivalent PLMNs are discussed.
• Missing behaviors for UEs in substate 5GMM-registered.non-allowed-service are identified and addressed.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in mobile network management systems to improve UE behavior and network efficiency.

Problems Solved

The technology addresses gaps in functionality and conflicting requirements for UE substate selection in mobile networks.

Benefits

The technology improves the efficiency of mobile networks by resolving UE behavior issues and optimizing substate selection.

Potential Commercial Applications

This technology could be valuable for mobile network operators looking to enhance network performance and user experience.

Possible Prior Art

Prior art in mobile network management systems may exist, but specific examples are not provided in the disclosure.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology impact battery life for UEs?

The disclosure does not mention the potential impact of this technology on UE battery life.

Are there any potential security implications of implementing this technology?

The disclosure does not address any security implications that may arise from the implementation of this technology.

Original Abstract Submitted

this disclosure describes example embodiments and techniques to resolve ue behavior for several sar use cases. the substate selection for a ue which has a valid sar list and is currently camped on a cell which is in the registered plmn or a plmn from the list of equivalent plmns and whose tai is not in the list of “allowed tracking areas” or is camped on a cell whose tai is in the list of “non-allowed tracking areas,” has gaps in functionality and certain use cases. there are conflicting requirements as to what is the substate to be chosen by the ue. additionally, there are certain behaviors missing for a ue in substate 5gmm-registered.non-allowed-service.
