Handling of emergency services for non-public networks
A method, system and apparatus are disclosed. In some embodiments, a network node configured to communicate with a wireless device (WD) is provided. The network node is configured to indicate, in a System Information Block (SIB) whether a network supports an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) emergency communication service, the indication associated to a network identifier, the network identifier identifying the network. In some embodiments, a wireless device is configured to receive, in a SIB, an indication of whether a network supports an IMS emergency communication service, the indication associated to a network identifier, the network identifier identifying the network; and select a network to initiate an emergency communication service based at least in part on the received indication.
1. A network node configured to communicate with a wireless device, the network node comprising processing circuitry, the processing circuitry configured to cause the network node to:
transmit, in a System Information Block, SIB, a first indication indicating whether a non-public network, NPN, supports an Internet Protocol, IP, Multimedia Subsystem, IMS, emergency communication service, the first indication being associated to a public land mobile network, PLMN, identity, ID, extension, the PLMN ID extension corresponding to a PLMID and being a network identity, NID, a combination of the PLMN ID and the NID identifying a standalone NPN to which the first indication applies; and
receive, from the wireless device, a second indication indicating a public network supporting the IP IMS emergency communication service to initiate the IP IMS emergency communication service, the public network being selected by the wireless device based at least in part on the first indication.
2. The network node of claim 1 , wherein the first indication is comprised in an ims-EmergencySupport SIB parameter.
3. The network node of claim 1 , wherein the first indication is associated to a PLMN, ID.
4. A wireless device configured to communicate with a network node, the wireless device comprising processing circuitry, the processing circuitry configured to cause the wireless device to:
receive, in a System Information Block, SIB, a first indication indicating whether a non-public network, NPN, supports an Internet Protocol, IP, Multimedia Subsystem, IMS, emergency communication service, the first indication being associated to a public land mobile network, PLMN, identity, ID, extension, the PLMN ID extension corresponding to a PLMID and being a network identity, NID, a combination of the PLMN ID and the NID identifying a standalone NPN to which the first indication of applies;
select a public network supporting the IP IMS emergency communication service to initiate the IP IMS emergency communication service based at least in part on the first indication; and
transmit, to the network node, a second indication indicating the public network supporting the IP IMS emergency communication service.
5. The wireless device of claim 4 , wherein the first indication is comprised in an ims-EmergencySupport SIB parameter.
6. The wireless device of claim 4 , wherein the first indication is associated to a PLMN, ID.
