==CELL SELECTION, NETWORK SELECTION, TRACKING AREA MANAGEMENT, AND PAGING FOR AERIAL OPERATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18154999 titled 'CELL SELECTION, NETWORK SELECTION, TRACKING AREA MANAGEMENT, AND PAGING FOR AERIAL OPERATION

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication, specifically focusing on aerial user equipment (UE) and their interaction with cellular networks. 

* Aerial UEs receive a priority indication for cell selection from each cell in a set of cells and select a cell based on the priority. 
* Aerial UEs can connect to a network available to both aerial UEs and non-aerial UEs for auxiliary communications. 
* When an aerial UE transitions to a new mission status, it may transmit a tracking area update (TAU) if it is connected to a cell that does not support the new mission status. 
* Base stations can page an aerial UE based on its mission status.

== Potential Applications ==
This technology has potential applications in various industries and scenarios, including:

* Aerial surveillance and monitoring: Aerial UEs can be used for real-time video streaming and data collection in surveillance operations.
* Disaster response and emergency services: Aerial UEs can provide communication capabilities in areas affected by natural disasters or emergencies, enabling coordination and rescue efforts.
* Infrastructure inspection: Aerial UEs can be utilized to inspect and monitor critical infrastructure such as power lines, pipelines, and bridges, providing efficient and cost-effective maintenance.
* Precision agriculture: Aerial UEs can assist in monitoring crop health, optimizing irrigation, and identifying areas requiring attention in large agricultural fields.

== Problems Solved ==
This technology addresses several challenges in wireless communication for aerial UEs:

* Cell selection: Aerial UEs need to select the most suitable cell for communication based on priority indications from multiple cells.
* Network connectivity: Aerial UEs require the ability to connect to networks that support both aerial and non-aerial UEs for auxiliary communications.
* Mission status updates: Aerial UEs need to update their tracking area when transitioning to a new mission status, especially if the current cell does not support the new status.
* Efficient paging: Base stations need to efficiently page aerial UEs based on their mission status to ensure timely communication.

== Benefits ==
The use of this technology offers several benefits:

* Improved communication reliability: Aerial UEs can select the most suitable cell based on priority indications, ensuring better signal quality and reliability.
* Enhanced network connectivity: Aerial UEs can connect to networks that support both aerial and non-aerial UEs, enabling seamless communication and interoperability.
* Efficient mission status updates: Aerial UEs can update their tracking area when transitioning to a new mission status, ensuring uninterrupted communication and network support.
* Targeted paging: Base stations can efficiently page aerial UEs based on their mission status, reducing unnecessary paging and optimizing network resources.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In one example, an aerial user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of a priority for cell selection for aerial UEs from each cell in a set of cells and may select a cell from the set of cells based on the priority of each cell in the set of cells. In another example, an aerial UE may connect to a network available to aerial UEs and non-aerial UEs for auxiliary communications, when appropriate. In yet another example, when an aerial UE transitions to a new mission status, the aerial UE may transmit a tracking area update (TAU) if the aerial UE is connected to a cell in a tracking area that does not support the new mission status. In yet another example, a base station may page an aerial UE based on a mission status of the aerial UE.
