Abstract
The present application describes a user equipment including a processor and a memory, where the memory stores computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the user equipment to perform a set of instructions. The instructions include transmitting, to a network, a message requesting to modify or establish flow that is not to be charged to the user equipment. The instructions also include receiving, from the network, an indication based on the message request. The instructions further include determining, based on the indication, whether to make the flow being associated with the message.
Claims20
A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) comprising a processor and a memory, the memory storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the WTRU to perform the following:
- transmitting, to a network, a message requesting to modify or establish a non-cellular flow for another WTRU on a condition that modifying or establishing the non-cellular flow is charged to the other WTRU and is not charged to the WTRU;
- receiving, based on the message request, an indication from the network that the non-cellular flow will be charged to the other WTRU and not charged to the WTRU;
- and
- modifying or establishing the non-cellular flow based on the received indication from the network.
A network device comprising a processor and a memory, the memory storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the network device to perform the following:
- receiving, from a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), a message requesting to modify or establish a non-cellular flow for another WTRU on a condition that modifying or establishing the non-cellular flow is to be charged to the other WTRU and is not charged to the WTRU;
- and
- transmitting, based on the message request to the WTRU, an indication the non-cellular flow will be charged to other WTRU and not to the WTRU.
A method comprising:
- transmitting, to a network, a message requesting to modify or establish a non-cellular flow for another WTRU on a condition that modifying or establishing the non-cellular flow is charged to the other WTRU and is not charged to the WTRU;
- receiving, based on the message request, an indication from the network that the non-cellular flow will be charged to the other WTRU and not charged to the WTRU;
- and
- modifying or establishing the non-cellular flow based on the received indication from the network.
