A method for carrier network integration through a user proxy interface includes receiving a request from a mobile device associated with a subscriber of a carrier provider to establish voice services with the carrier provider for a companion device linked to the mobile device. The request includes a subscriber identifier of the mobile device. The method also includes authenticating the companion device based on the subscriber identifier, obtaining session initiation protocol (SIP) credentials corresponding to the subscriber identifier, and registering the SIP credentials for the companion device at a network interface proxy. The network interface proxy is in communication with an internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) of the carrier provider and the companion device. The method also includes establishing voice services between the companion device and the IMS through the network interface proxy using the SIP credentials.

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a trigger to dynamically modify a serving site of a communication endpoint, wherein the communication endpoint is registered to receive digital communication service from a first serving site. The method further includes determining a stored serving-site selection policy applicable to the communication endpoint. The method also includes selecting a second serving site for the communication endpoint based, at least part, on a stored serving-site selection policy. Also, the method includes determining endpoint-configuration requirements of the second serving site. Furthermore, the method includes dynamically generating endpoint configurations that satisfy the endpoint-configuration requirements of the second serving site. Moreover, the method includes writing the generated endpoint configurations to the communication endpoint. Additionally, the method includes causing the communication endpoint to register to receive digital communication service from the second serving site in place of the first serving site.

Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, a user equipment (UE) may enter into an E-UTRAN Routing Area Paging Channel state, and is configured with an E-UTRAN Routing Area and an Anchor identifier to identify an anchor evolved Node B (eNB) for the UE. The UE selects to a new cell without performing a handover procedure, and performs a cell update procedure. The UE also may enter into a Cell Update Connected state, and is configured with an Anchor identifier. The UE selects to a new cell, performs a cell update procedure, performs a buffer request procedure, and performs a cell update procedure to download buffered data and to perform data transmission with the new cell.

A terminal registration processing method and device are provided. The method includes: detecting that an identity card is inserted into at least one card slot; reading an identifier of the identity card; acquiring, from a database, a network identity corresponding to the identifier, wherein the database stores a correspondence between a network identity and an identifier of a registered card; and registering the identity card according to a result of acquiring the network identity.

This application provides a frequency band control method in an abnormal scenario of a dual-card terminal and a terminal device, and relates to the field of communications technologies. In solutions of this application, for a dual-card user scenario that supports a 5G SA mode or a 5G NSA mode, it is determined whether a frequency band combination of two cards is in a blacklist and whether signal quality of a primary card and/or signal quality of a secondary card meet/meets a preset threshold. If the frequency band combination of the two cards is in the blacklist and the signal quality of the primary card and/or the signal quality of the secondary card are/is less than the preset threshold, an NR capability of a terminal device is controlled to fall back, for example, an SA capability is disabled, or an NR link in an ENDC link is released, to improve the signal quality of the two cards. Further, when the frequency band combination of the two cards changes and a changed frequency band combination of the two cards is not in the blacklist, the NR capability of the terminal device may be controlled to be restored. In the solutions of this application, a case in which signal quality deteriorates because the dual-card terminal device works on a problem frequency band combination can be alleviated.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A method may include determining to modify current-allowed network slices used by a user equipment (UE) based on a network-trigger; identifying new-allowed network slices for the UE based on the determining; selecting a target access and mobility management function (AMF) based on the new-allowed network slices, the target AMF is accessible by the source AMF; and triggering an AMF relocation based on the selecting.
