Methods and apparatus of reenabling n1 mode capability after no slices being available in wireless communications

Abstract

Techniques pertaining to reenabling NI mode capability after no slices being available in mobile communications are described. An apparatus (e.g., a UE) disables a network mode capability for a currently camped network over an access due to no network slice being available for the network. The UE also memorizes an identity of the network for which the network mode capability is disabled due to no network slice being available. Moreover, the UE starts a timer for reenabling the network mode capability responsive to the network mode capability being disabled due to no network slice being available. The UE further removes the memorized identity of the network for which the network mode capability is disabled due to no network slice being available upon the expiry of timer.
