Abstract

Wireless communications systems and methods related to globally unique temporary identity (GUTI) reallocation for cellular-Internet of thing (CIoT) are provided. A user equipment (UE) receives, from a network, a paging associated with a mobile-terminated early data transmission (MT-EDT). The UE transmits, by the UE to the network, a data request in response to the paging. The UE receives, from the network in response to the data request, a message including a global unique temporary identifier (GUTI) and at least one of data associated with the paging or a connection release indication.

receiving, by the core network entity from the BS, a request associated with at least one of a service or a context resumption of the paged UE; and

transmitting, by the core network entity to the BS in response to the request, a message including:

a second GUTI for the paged UE different from the first GUTI; and

at least one of data associated with the paging or a connection release indication.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

generating, by the core network entity in response to the request, the second GUTI.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein:

the receiving the request includes:

receiving, by the core network entity, an initial UE message including a non-access stratum (NAS) service request; and

the transmitting the message includes:

transmitting, by the core network entity to the BS, a NAS transport message including the data and the second GUTI.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the NAS transport message includes a NAS service accept message, and wherein the NAS service accept message includes the data and the second GUTI.

12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the NAS transport message includes:

a non-access stratum (NAS) service accept message including the data; and

an information element (IE) including the second GUTI.

13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the NAS transport message further includes a NAS acknowledgement (ACK) request, and wherein the method further comprises:

receiving, by the core network entity from the BS, a NAS ACK in response to the NAS ACK request.

14. The method of claim 8 , wherein:

the receiving the request includes:

receiving, by the core network entity, a UE initial message including a non-access stratum (NAS) service request; and

the transmitting the message includes:

transmitting, by the core network entity to the BS, a UE context release message including the connection release indication and the second GUTI.

15. The method of claim 8 , wherein:

the receiving the request includes:

receiving, by the core network entity, a UE context resume request message; and

the transmitting the message includes:

transmitting, by the core network entity to the BS, a UE context resume response message including the connection release indication and the second GUTI.

16. A method of wireless communication, comprising:

receiving, by a base station (BS) from a user equipment (UE), a data request associated with paging;

transmitting, by the BS to a core network in response to the data request, a request associated with a service or a context resumption of the UE;

receiving, by the BS from the core network in response to the request associated with the service or the context resumption of the UE, a message including a global unique temporary identifier (GUTI) and a connection release indication; and

transmitting, by the BS to the UE, a connection release message including the GUTI.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein:
