Abstract

Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for enabling access control in a connected mode, idle mode, and an inactive state. An exemplary method generally includes receiving access control information associated with one or more services used by the UE for communicating with the wireless communications network, receiving a request to transmit traffic using the one or more services, checking a type of the traffic against the access control information, and scheduling the traffic for transmission if the type of the traffic satisfies one or more criteria in the access control information based on the checking.

Claims (17)

1. A method for wireless communication, the method comprising:

receiving, by a user equipment (UE) in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state, a request to transmit traffic using one or more services for communicating with a wireless communications network;

checking, by the UE in the radio resource control (RRC) inactive state, a type of the traffic against access control information associated with the one or more services; and

scheduling the traffic for transmission if the type of the traffic satisfies one or more criteria in the access control information based on the checking.

2. An apparatus comprising:

at least one processor configured to:

receive, by a user equipment (UE) in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state, a request to transmit traffic using one or more services for communicating with a wireless communications network;

check, by the UE in the radio resource control (RRC) inactive state, a type of the traffic against access control information associated with the one or more services; and

schedule the traffic for transmission if the type of the traffic satisfies one or more criteria in the access control information based on the checking.

3. An apparatus comprising:

means for receiving, by a user equipment (UE) in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state, a request to transmit traffic using one or more services for communicating with a wireless communications network;

means for checking, by the UE in the radio resource control (RRC) inactive state, a type of the traffic against access control information associated with the one or more services; and

means for scheduling the traffic for transmission if the type of the traffic satisfies one or more criteria in the access control information based on the checking.

4. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:

receive, by a user equipment (UE) in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state, a request to transmit traffic using one or more services for communicating with a wireless communications network;

check, by the UE in the radio resource control (RRC) inactive state, a type of the traffic against access control information associated with the one or more services; and

schedule the traffic for transmission if the type of the traffic satisfies one or more criteria in the access control information based on the checking.
