Abstract
Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for wireless communications. A base station and wireless device may communicate capability information associated with a wireless device. The capability information may include information indicating support for an Ethernet type packet data unit session or header parameter compression. An Ethernet type packet data unit session may be instantiated based on the capability information.
Claims34
A method comprising:
- sending, by a wireless device to an access and mobility management function (AMF) via a base station, non-access stratum parameters comprising:
- a wireless device capability parameter indicating whether the wireless device supports an Ethernet packet data unit (PDU) session type between the wireless device and a core network user plane function, and
- a PDU session type parameter indicating a type of a requested PDU session;
- receiving, by the wireless device from the base station, a radio resource control (RRC) message indicating addition of a bearer for a PDU session of the Ethernet PDU session type;
- and
- sending, by the wireless device to the base station via at least one resource block of at least one cell of the base station, transport blocks comprising Ethernet frames of the bearer.
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a base station from a wireless device, non-access stratum parameters comprising:
- a wireless device capability parameter indicating whether the wireless device supports an Ethernet packet data unit (PDU) session type between the wireless device and a core network user plane function, and
- a PDU session type parameter indicating a type of a requested PDU session;
- sending, by the base station to an access and mobility management function (AMF), the non-access stratum parameters;
- sending, by the base station to the wireless device, a radio resource control (RRC) message indicating addition of a bearer for a PDU session of the Ethernet packet PDU type;
- and
- receiving, by the base station from the wireless device via at least one resource block of at least one cell of the base station, transport blocks comprising Ethernet frames of the bearer.
An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to:
- send, to an access and mobility management function (AMF) via a base station, non-access stratum parameters comprising:
- a wireless device capability parameter indicating whether the apparatus supports an Ethernet packet data unit (PDU) session type between the apparatus and a core network user plane function, and
- a PDU session type parameter indicating a type of a requested PDU session;
- receive, from the base station, a radio resource control (RRC) message indicating addition of a bearer for a PDU session of the Ethernet PDU session type;
- and
- send, to the base station via at least one resource block of at least one cell of the base station, transport blocks comprising Ethernet frames of the bearer.
