Abstract:
Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, user equipment (UE) comprises processing circuitry to connect to a network via an untrusted wireless local area network (WLAN) and determine a location of the UE to provide the location of the UE if a voice call is made by the UE via the untrusted WLAN. The UE provides the location of the UE to a Public-Safety Answering Point (PSAP) via one or more network nodes of the network via the untrusted WLAN.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure describe systems, devices, and methods for traffic steering in mobile networks. Various embodiments may include a service steering and control function to route a service dataflow through one or more service enablers based on service steering and control rules. Other embodiments may be described or claimed.
Abstract:
Various embodiments may be generally directed to techniques for UE initiated and network initiated IP flow mobility. Various embodiments provide techniques for sharing IP flow routing rules and/or filters between a UE and various network infrastructure components using existing network based protocols or extensions thereto. Various embodiments provide techniques for provisioning network based IP flow mobility triggers and for ensuring UE connections to a 3GPP network are maintained in the absence of any 3GPP network IP flows.
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 UE may include a WLAN transceiver; a cellular transceiver to communicate with an evolved Node B (eNB) of a cellular network; and a controller to determine a UE security key based on a cellular security key corresponding to the eNB, and to establish a connection with a WLAN access device based on the UE security key.
Abstract:
Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, cooperation of multiple beams for transmission is provided by identifying at least two beams among multiple beams that are dominant for a user, determining if there is any beam collision between the at least two beams, and, if there is beam collision between the at least two beams, delaying scheduling on one or more weaker ones of the at least two beams for other users and combining the two or more beams for transmission to the user. Alternatively, cooperation of multiple beams for transmission is provided by, if there is beam collision between the at least two beams, muting one or more weaker ones of the at least two beams and transmitting to the user with a stronger one of the at least two beams.
Abstract:
A technology for network-level device proximity detection is disclosed. In an example, core network (CN) device can include computer circuitry configured to: Store user equipment (UE) information; calculate proximity between two UEs; and assist the two UEs with direct device discovery based on the calculated proximity. The core network device can include a proximity services (ProSe) server, a gateway mobile location center (GMLC), an evolved serving mobile location center (E-SMLC), or a mobility management entity (MME).
