- Step 607 When the UE determines that it enters the satellite signal non-coverage state based on the current location and the satellite access coverage information, it performs the access behavior when there is no signal coverage. For example, if the optimized access behavior indicates that the power saving mode is used when there is no signal coverage, the UE still uses the current satellite access, and when it enters the signal non-coverage stage, it changes to the idle state and enters the power saving mode; if the optimized access behavior If the access behavior indicates that other available accesses can be used when there is no signal coverage, the UE selects other available RATs and performs new access registration so that when the current satellite access has no signal coverage, it can continue using other available access technologies. business.
- the gNB detects that the satellite coverage is about to leave the area where the UE is located based on the satellite coverage information, and triggers the AN connection release process. At this time, the AMF decides for the UE the access behavior of the UE during the period of no signal coverage.
- the specific steps are shown in Figure 7, including:
- Step 701 The UE uses the gNB corresponding to the current satellite access to detect that the UE is about to lose the coverage of the current satellite access according to the satellite coverage information.
- Step 702 gNB initiates an N2 context release request (N2 Context release request) to the AMF to release the N2 connection.
- N2 Context release request N2 Context release request
- Step 703 Upon receiving the connection release request, the AMF determines the access behavior of the UE during the period of no signal coverage. AMF obtains the reference information (i.e., access information) required for decision-making from UDM, including the UE's power information (UDM obtains it from the power participation related AF through NEF, or the AMF requires the UE to report power information), the delay requirements of the UE's contract application, etc.
- the reference information i.e., access information
- UDM obtains it from the power participation related AF through NEF, or the AMF requires the UE to report power information
- delay requirements of the UE's contract application etc.
- AMF also obtains UE location information, UE movement mode, UE movement trajectory and other information from NWDAF.
- Step 704 Based on the above access information, the AMF decides the access behavior of the UE during the period of no signal coverage, including at least one of the following:
- the UE still uses the satellite for access, but switches to power saving mode during periods when the satellite has no signal coverage, or
- the UE selects other available RAT/PLMN access (ie other available access, such as the first access).
- Step 705 AMF provides the UE's access behavior during the period of no signal coverage to the UE through the UE Configuration Update (UE Configuration Update) UCU program.
- UE Configuration Update UE Configuration Update
- the AMF also needs to provide the UE with the power saving parameters during the period of no signal coverage.
- the AMF will also provide the access-denied RAT/PLMN to the UE.
- Step 706 AMF returns the N2 context release command message to gNB
- Step 707 After receiving the message, gNB starts the RRC connection release process with the UE.
- Step 708 gNB returns the N2 context release complete message to the AMF.
- Step 709 Includes two situations:
- Step 709a If the UE's access behavior during the period of no signal coverage uses the power saving mode, the UE enters the period of no signal coverage and switches to the power saving mode according to the power saving parameters.
- Step 709b If the UE's access behavior during the no-signal coverage period indicates access using other available RATs/PLMNs, the UE enters the no-signal coverage period and selects other non-forbidden RATs/PLMNs for access.
