Systems, devices, and techniques described herein relate to efficient Evolved Packet System (EPS) fallback. A method may include receiving a rejection message that indicates a rejection to set up a call through a 5th Generation (5G) network by a 5G Radio Access Network (RAN). In response to receiving the rejection message, the method may include transmitting a request to establish a dedicated bearer through a 4th Generation (4G) network. A confirmation that the second dedicated bearer has been established through the 4G network may be received within a predetermined time after transmitting the request.

A mobile communication device for receiving an ad hoc temporary upgrade in quality of service (QoS). The mobile communication device comprises a processor, at least one cellular radio transceiver, a non-transitory memory, and an ad hoc service upgrade application. When executed by the processor, the application monitors wireless cellular communication on a network via the at least one cellular radio transceiver, detects a significant delay in the communication, generates a prompt on a GUI, the prompt comprising a plurality of options for an ad hoc temporary upgraded QoS, where each option is associated with a time period. The application further, based on a user input, requests a preferred roaming list (PRL) associated with the temporary upgraded QoS, receives the PRL, wherein the PRL is associated with providing the upgraded QoS on an allocated spectrum, activates the received PRL, and upon expiration of the time period, deactivates the received PRL.

Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for UE capability signaling. An apparatus is provided that is caused to at least: receive, from a user equipment capability management function, a message including a first restart counter value indicating a restart of the user equipment capability management function; inhibit, in response to receiving the first restart counter value, one or more old user equipment capability identifiers associated with a second restart counter value, the second restart counter value being associated to a pre-restart state of the user equipment capability management function; and send the first restart counter value indicating the restart of the user equipment capability management function. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.

According to an embodiment of the disclosure, an operating method of a first proximity-based services (ProSe) function belonging to a first public land mobile network (PLMN) includes: receiving a first ProSe Communication Create Request message from an application function (AF), a network exposure function (NEF) belonging to the first PLMN, or a first user equipment (UE) subscribed to the first PLMN; determining whether to perform inter-PLMN communication between the first UE and a second UE subscribed to a second PLMN, the second PLMN being different from the first PLMN; transmitting, to a second ProSe function belonging to the second PLMN, a ProSe Provisioning Request message including first radio resource information for direct communication by the first UE; receiving, from the second ProSe function, a ProSe Provisioning Response message including second radio resource information for direct communication by the second UE; and transmitting, to the first UE, the first ProSe Communication Create Request message including inter-PLMN communication information for direct communication with the second UE.

This disclosure describes a request distribution system that can intelligently distribute transportation requests to provider devices to improve transportation system network coverage and efficiency. For example, the disclosed systems can identify one or more provider devices (e.g., limited-eligibility provider devices or full-eligibility provider devices) as potential recipients for a transportation request. In some embodiments, the disclosed systems can further determine an expected change in network coverage time associated with providing the transportation request to one provider device versus another. The disclosed systems can provide the transportation request to a provider device according to the expected change in network coverage time and/or other transportation request metrics.

The present disclosure relates to a pre-5.sup.th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4.sup.th-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). The disclosure is to analyze N network data on a UE which is in a roaming state in a wireless communication system. According to various embodiments of the disclosure, a method for operating an apparatus for a network data analytics function (NWDAF) belonging to a first network in a core network of a wireless communication system is provided. The method comprises: transmitting a first message requesting network data for a terminal to a core network device belonging to a second network; receiving a second message including the network data from the core network device; and transmitting a third message including an analytics result of the network data to a consumer network function (NF).
