Abstract:
Some demonstrative embodiments include devices, systems and methods of providing offloadability information to a User Equipment (UE). For example, a core network (CN) may provide to the UE Packet Data Network (PDN) offloadability information corresponding to one or more PDN connections of the UE, the PDN offloadability information indicating which PDN connection of the one or more PDN connections is able to be offloaded to a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN).
Abstract:
Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, a user equipment (UE) may enter into an E-UTRAN Routing Area Paging Channel state, and is configured with an E-UTRAN Routing Area and an Anchor identifier to identify an anchor evolved Node B (eNB) for the UE. The UE selects to a new cell without performing a handover procedure, and performs a cell update procedure. The UE also may enter into a Cell Update Connected state, and is configured with an Anchor identifier. The UE selects to a new cell, performs a cell update procedure, performs a buffer request procedure, and performs a cell update procedure to download buffered data and to perform data transmission with the new cell.
Abstract:
Examples may include techniques for securely receiving critical communication content associated with a critical communication service. Examples may include a network providing the critical communication being capable of establishing a secure connection to remote user equipment (UE) through a relay UE in order for the remote UE to securely receive critical communication content from the network. The critical communication service may include a mission critical push to talk (MCPTT) service.
Abstract:
Some demonstrative embodiments include devices, systems of securing communications of a User Equipment (UE) in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). For example, a cellular node may transmit to a UE a cellular message including a UE security key, and a WLAN access device may communicate with the cellular node security information including the UE security key. The WLAN access device may communicate with the UE based on the UE security key, e.g., to authenticate the UE and/or encrypt communications with the UE.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for network selection are disclosed herein. User equipment (UE) includes a communication component, a rules component, and a network selection component. The communication component may be configured to communicate over a 3GPP network and a non-cellular network. The rules component may be configured to store an access network discovery and selection function (ANDSF) management object (MO) that includes wireless local area network (WLAN) selection policies for network selection on the UE. The WLAN selection policies may include interworking WLAN (I-WLAN) policies and Hotspot 2.0 (HS2.0) parameters. The network selection component is configured to select an available WLAN based on the ANDSF MO.
Abstract:
An apparatus, comprising: at least one memory; and logic for a proxy call session control function (P-CSCF) node, at least a portion of the logic comprised in circuitry coupled to the at least one memory, the logic to cause the P-CSCF node to: receive a session initiation protocol (SIP) INVITE message from roaming user equipment (UE), the SIP INVITE message associated with an attempt to place an emergency call via an unauthenticated internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) session; obtain a public safety answering point (PSAP) callback number for the UE from a policy and charging rules function (PCRF) node via an Rx interface; identify' a PSAP callback parameter for the UE based on the PSAP callback number; insert the PSAP callback parameter into the SIP INVITE message; and forward the SIP INVITE message to a PSAP.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) is configured to send a direct communication request to a peer UE, wherein the direct communication request comprises a signature authenticating an identity of the UE. The UE is configured to process a direct communication response from the peer UE to authenticate an identity of the peer UE, wherein the direct communication response comprises a signature authenticating the identity of the peer UE. In response to processing the direct communication response from the peer UE to authenticate the identity of the peer UE, the UE is configured to engage in direct communication with the peer UE.
Abstract:
Some demonstrative embodiments include devices, systems and/or methods of establishing a connection between a cellular node and a core network. For example, a first Evolved Node B (eNB) may include a cellular transceiver to communicate with a User Equipment (UE); an X2 interface to communicate with at least one second eNB; and a controller to send to the second eNB a first message including a core network node discovery request, to receive from the second eNB a second message including a core network node identifier, and to establish an S1 connection between the first eNB and a core network using the core network node identifier.
