    Abstract: In aspects of the disclosure, a method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) are provided. In one aspect, the UE associates with an access point of a wireless local area network which may be untrusted, obtains a list comprising a plurality of public land mobile network (PLMN) entries and one or more selection conditions associated with each one of the plurality of PLMN entries, and selects a PLMN from the list when the one or more selection conditions associated with the PLMN are satisfied. The UE may further discover an evolved packet data gateway (ePDG) for the selected PLMN using one or more fully qualified domain name (FQDN) rules for the selected PLMN. The UE may then attach to the selected PLMN using the discovered ePDG.

    Abstract: Techniques are discussed herein for efficiently supporting broadcast of location assistance data (AD) in a wireless network to assist in locating a user equipment (UE). A location server (LS) may send some location AD, which may be optionally ciphered, to base stations for broadcast in cells supported by the base stations. Capability information provided by a UE to the LS indicating a level of support by the UE for receiving broadcast AD and supporting ciphering may enable the LS to determine whether, and what type of, additional AD needs to be sent to the UE by point to point means. An LS may use capability information received from a large number of UEs to assist in determining the types of location assistance data to be broadcast and usage of ciphering.

    Abstract: Protocols for location services are disclosed. For example, a method for a positioning protocol for first and second devices may comprise, at the first device: creating a message for the protocol at the first device, where the message comprises a set of included parameters from a plurality of allowed parameters, encoding the message by embedding each of the included parameters in an encoded string, and transmitting the encoded message to the second device. Similarly, a method for such a positioning protocol may comprise, at a second device receiving a message for the protocol transmitted by the first device, where the message comprises the included parameters, with each included parameter embedded in an encoded string, and decoding the message by decoding a subset of the plurality of included parameters and omitting decoding of included parameters that are not in the subset.

    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for supporting inter-RAT mobility of UEs in eCall-only mode. In an aspect, a UE establishes a communication session for an eCall or a test/reconfiguration call (702), releases the communication session for the eCall or test/reconfiguration call (704), starts a timer (706) based on at least one of release (708), by the UE, of a PS signaling connection for a UMTS access for the communication session, (710) expiration at the UE of a READY timer for GPRS, wherein the READY timer was started by the UE following a PS handover of the communication session from an LTE access to a GSM-GPRS access, (712) intersystem change by the UE from an LTE access to a GSM-GPRS access or a UMTS access, or (714) intersystem change by the UE from a GSM access or a UMTS access to an LTE access, and performs an eCall inactivity procedure when the timer expires (716).

    Abstract: Techniques described herein are directed toward enabling location support for 5G New Radio (NR) wireless access by a user equipment (UE) by utilizing existing LTE location support. More specifically, LTE positioning protocol (LPP) messages may be communicated between a UE with NR wireless access and a location server (e.g. an LMF) in a 5G Core Network via an NG-RAN. The LPP messages may support RAT-independent and E-UTRA position methods by the UE such as A-GNSS or OTDOA for E-UTRA. The location server may obtain OTDOA related information from eNBs and ng-eNBs supporting LTE wireless access. A UE may request measurement gaps from a 5G base station (e.g. gNB) in order to obtain measurements for RAT-independent and E-UTRA position methods and may request an idle period in order to obtain LTE timing needed for E-UTRA measurements.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for supporting location and emergency calls for an over-the-top (OTT) service provider are disclosed. A UE may send a request for an emergency call to an OTT service provider and may include in the request mobile network operator (MNO) data for a serving MNO for the UE. The OTT service provider may forward the emergency call request to an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS). The IMS may determine routing information for the emergency call and either return the routing information to the OTT service provider to enable the OTT service provider to route the emergency call to a public safety answering point (PSAP) or may route the emergency call itself to the PSAP. The call request routed by the IMS or by the OTT service provider may include a reference identifier that may enable the PSAP to obtain a location for the UE from the IMS.

    Abstract: Systems methods and devices for computing a mobile device location using network centric location measurements are described. In one potential embodiment a location method comprises performing a user plane location session between a mobile device and a location server in order to reliably coordinate positioning of the mobile device. Based on the network centric coordination the location server instructs one or more access points to obtain location measurements for the mobile device. The location server may then locate the mobile device based on the location measurements and possibly any mobile centric location measurements obtained from the mobile device using the user plane location session. The coordination of network centric positioning using the user plane location session may comprise transfer of SUPL and possibly LPP/LPPe positioning messages between the mobile device and location server.
