Multi-access pdu sessions for multi-usim devices

An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:

• means for transmitting a registration request to a base station of a first public land mobile network (PLMN), wherein the registration request indicates a UE capability for a multi-access protocol data unit (MA PDU) session associated with a multiple universal subscriber identity module (MUSIM) device, the MA PDU session including a plurality of PDU sessions associated with a single access type;
• and
• wherein the means for transmitting is further configured to transmit a PDU session establishment request for a first PDU session of the PDU sessions in the first PLMN and for a second PDU session of the PDU sessions in a second PLMN, wherein the first PLMN is associated with a first universal subscriber identity module (USIM) of the apparatus, and the second PLMN is associated with a second USIM of the apparatus.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer executable code, the code when executed by a processor cause the processor to:

• transmit a registration request to a base station of a first public land mobile network (PLMN), wherein the registration request indicates a UE capability for a multi-access protocol data unit (MA PDU) session associated with a multiple universal subscriber identity module (MUSIM) device, the MA PDU session including a plurality of PDU sessions associated with a single access type;
• and
• transmit a PDU session establishment request for a first PDU session of the PDU sessions in the first PLMN and for a second PDU session of the PDU sessions in a second PLMN, wherein the first PLMN is associated with a first universal subscriber identity module (USIM) of a UE, and the second PLMN is associated with a second USIM of the UE.
