Restricting ue access to 3gpp core network over non-3gpp network
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11968614B2) discloses a User Equipment (UE) with a wireless transceiver and a controller. The controller is designed to prevent access to a 3GPP core network over a non-3GPP access network by setting specific parameters and deleting certain identifiers when the UE is not allowed to access the core network over the non-3GPP network. The information triggering this action can be obtained from various sources such as response messages from the core network or subscription data stored in the UE.
Furthermore, the patent also covers a method executed by a UE connected to a 3GPP core network over both 3GPP and non-3GPP access networks. The method involves obtaining information indicating restricted access to the core network over the non-3GPP network and taking appropriate actions based on this information. This includes setting specific statuses, deleting identifiers, and refraining the UE from accessing the core network over the non-3GPP network by disabling certain capabilities. The information can be stored in the UE's memory or a Universal Subscriber Identity Module (USIM) and can have varying validity periods based on different conditions like power cycles or location changes.
