Abstract

A User Equipment (UE) includes a transmitter configured to, in a case that, at a time when a Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) is changed, a first timer is running for a certain Data Network Name (DNN) and an old PLMN but that a second timer is not running for the DNN or a new PLMN and is not deactivated, be capable of transmitting a PDU session establishment request message for the DNN or no DNN in the new PLMN without stopping the first timer for the DNN and the old PLMN. Thus, a communication control method is provided that is used in a case that, in 5G congestion control in which multiple types of congestion control are applied, the PLMN is changed during application of the congestion control.

Claims (10)

1. A User Equipment (UE) comprising:

transmitting and receiving circuitry, wherein

upon Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) change, in a case that first timer is running for a Data Network Name (DNN) and old PLMN, but second timer is not running and is not deactivated for the DNN and new PLMN, the transmitting and receiving circuitry is allowed to send a PDU (Protocol Data Unit) SESSION ESTABLISHMENT REQUEST message for the DNN in the new PLMN without stopping the first timer.

2. The UE according to claim 1 , wherein the first timer and the second timer are timers for DNN based congestion control.

3. A User Equipment (UE) comprising:

transmitting and receiving circuitry, wherein

upon Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) change, in a case that first timer is running for no Data Network Name (DNN) and old PLMN, but second timer is not running and is not deactivated for no DNN and new PLMN, the transmitting and receiving circuitry is allowed to send a PDU (Protocol Data Unit) SESSION ESTABLISHMENT REQUEST message for no DNN in the new PLMN without stopping the first timer.

4. The UE according to claim 3 , wherein the first timer and the second timer are timers for DNN based congestion control.

5. A communication control method performed by a User Equipment (UE), the communication control method comprising:

upon Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) change, in a case that first timer is running for a Data Network Name (DNN) and old PLMN, but second timer is not running and is not deactivated for the DNN and new PLMN, sending a PDU (Protocol Data Unit) SESSION ESTABLISHMENT REQUEST message for the DNN in the new PLMN without stopping the first timer.
