Abstract

A wireless device sends a first request to a mobility management function. The first request includes a paging cause value in a paging message. The paging message is received by the wireless device and comprises the paging cause value. Based on the paging message, a second request for a connection setup is sent.

Claims (41)

1. A method comprising:

sending, by a wireless device to a mobility management function, a first request to include a paging cause value in a paging message;

receiving the paging message comprising the paging cause value; and

sending, based on the paging message, a second request for a connection setup.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first request is a registration request message.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second request is a radio resource control, RRC, setup message.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the RRC setup message is an RRC setup request message.

5. The method of claim 3 , wherein the RRC setup message is an RRC resume request message.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the sending the first request is based on the wireless device being a multi-subscriber identity module, SIM, device.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the paging cause value indicates that the paging message is for internet protocol multimedia subsystem, IMS, voice.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the mobility management function is one or more of:

a mobility management entity; and

an access and mobility management function.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the mobility management function is a mobility management function of a visited public land mobile network (PLMN).

10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

registering, by the wireless device, with a second PLMN;

wherein the first request is based on the visited PLMN being a lower priority PLMN than the second PLMN.

11. A wireless device comprising: one or more processors; and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:

send, to a mobility management function, a first request to include a paging cause value in a paging message;

receive the paging message comprising the paging cause value; and

send, based on the paging message, a second request for a connection setup.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the first request is a registration request message.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the second request is a radio resource control, RRC, setup message.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the RRC setup message is an RRC setup request message.

15. The method of claim 13 , wherein the RRC setup message is an RRC resume request message.

16. The method of claim 11 , wherein the sending the first request is based on the wireless device being a multi-subscriber identity module, SIM, device.

17. The method of claim 11 , wherein the paging cause value indicates that the paging message is for internet protocol multimedia subsystem, IMS, voice.

18. The method of claim 11 , wherein the mobility management function is one or more of:

a mobility management entity; and

an access and mobility management function.

19. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:

registering, by the wireless device, with a second public land mobile network (PLMN);

wherein the first request is based on a visited PLMN being a lower priority PLMN than the second PLMN.

20. A system, comprising:

a wireless device comprising: one or more processors and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:

send, to a mobility management function, a first request to include a paging cause value in a paging message;

receive the paging message comprising the paging cause value; and

send, based on the paging message, a second request for a connection setup; and

the mobility management function, wherein the mobility management function comprises: one or more processors and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the mobility management function to:

receive the first request; and

send the paging message.
