V2X UE with different PC5 rat capability in 5GS
An approach is described for a user equipment (UE) to provide vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication. The UE includes processor circuitry that generates a registration request message in a protocol for a cellular network, a V2X policy provisioning request and an indication of PC5 radio access technology (RAT) capability for V2X. The UE also includes a transmitter that transmits the registration request message, the V2X policy provisioning request and the indication of PC5 radio access technology (RAT) capability for V2X to an Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) in the cellular network.
1. A user equipment (UE), comprising:
processor circuitry configured to generate a registration request message in a protocol for a cellular network, a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) policy provisioning request and an indication of PC5 radio access technology (RAT) capability for V2X, wherein the indication is provided in a UE policy container that is provided to a policy control function (PCF) transparently via an Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) in the cellular network;
radio front end circuitry configured to transmit the registration request message, the V2X policy provisioning request and the indication of PC5 RAT capability for V2X to the AMF in the cellular network;
the radio front end circuitry further configured to receive an identity request message from the AMF, the identity request message requesting a subscription concealed identifier (SUCI); and
the processor circuitry further configured to generate an identity response message including the SUCI, the processor circuitry deriving the SUCI by using a provisioned public key of a home public land mobile network (HPLMN).

generating a registration request message in a protocol for a cellular network, a V2X policy provisioning request and an indication of PC5 radio access technology (RAT) capability for V2X, wherein the indication is provided in a UE policy container that is provided to a policy control function (PCF) transparently via an Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) in the cellular network;
transmitting the registration request message, the V2X policy provisioning request and the indication of PC5 RAT capability for V2X to the AMF in the cellular network;
receiving an identity request message from the AMF, the identity request message requesting a subscription concealed identifier (SUCI); and
generating an identity response message including the SUCI, the SUCI derived by using a provisioned public key of a home public land mobile network (HPLMN).

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the generating the registration request message is performed as part of initially registering the UE with the cellular network, updating a mobility registration by the UE, or performing a UE policy provisioning procedure by the UE.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the updating the mobility registration by the UE is associated with an evolved packet system (EPS) to a fifth generation system (5GS) handover.
12. The method of claim 8 , wherein the generating the indication of the PC5 RAT capability is included in generating the UE policy container.
13. The method of claim 8 , wherein the generating the V2X policy provisioning request is included in generating the UE policy container.
14. The method of claim 8 , wherein the registration request message is a non-access stratum (NAS) message.
