Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure relate to providing a network with information about the capabilities of UEs, so the network can send extended information (e.g., extended SOR-SNPN-SI) to UEs that can handle and properly utilize such information. For example, a UE can provide its 5GMM capability information to the network during a registration procedure, and in response, the network can provide lists of SNPNs/GINs, which can include the extended information (e.g., via various container IE configurations).
Claims20
A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
- at least one memory;
- and
- at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the UE to:
- transmit, to a network function, an indication that the UE supports extended steering of roaming standalone non-public network selection information (SOR-SNPN-SI);
- and
- receive, from the network function, a list of Standalone Non-Public Networks (SNPNs) and/or Group Identity for Networks (GINs) that support extended SOR-SNPN-SI.
A processor for wireless communication, comprising:
- at least one controller coupled with at least one memory and configured to cause the processor to:
- transmit, to a network function, an indication that the processor supports extended steering of roaming standalone non-public network selection information (SOR-SNPN-SI);
- and
- receive, from the network function, a list of Standalone Non-Public Networks (SNPNs) and/or Group Identity for Networks (GINs) that support extended SOR-SNPN-SI.
A method performed by a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
- transmitting, to a network function, an indication that the UE supports extended steering of roaming standalone non-public network selection information (SOR-SNPN-SI);
- and
- receiving, from the network function, a list of Standalone Non-Public Networks (SNPNs) and/or Group Identity for Networks (GINs) that support extended SOR-SNPN-SI.
A network function for wireless communication, comprising:
- at least one memory;
- and
- at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the network function to:
- determine whether to transmit extended steering of roaming standalone non-public network selection information (SOR-SNPN-SI) for Standalone Non-Public Networks (SNPNs) and/or Group Identity for Networks (GINs) that support extended SOR-SNPN-SI to a user equipment (UE);
- and
- transmit a list of SNPNs and/or GINs to the UE based on the determination.
