The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A method for replacement of a DNN and/or S-NSSAI in a wireless communication system is provided.

A handover method for managing WBSS vehicle network managed by a WESS-CM includes: recognizing that a vehicle enters an overlapped area between first and second WBSSs; sending, by the first WBSS, a handover recommend request to the WESS-CM; confirming with the second WBSS, by the WESS-CM, whether handover is possible; responding to the WESS-CM, by the second WBSS, the availability of the handover after allocating communication resources; sending, by the WESS-CM, a handover recommend response to the first WBSS; transmitting, by the first WBSS, a handover request message to the vehicle; performing the handover, by the vehicle, by performing reassociation with the second WBSS; and periodically broadcasting, by the vehicle, basic safety message using a T-slot in shared control channel and a T-slot in BSM channel for the second WBSS, while the vehicle is located in the overlapped area.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In one example, an aerial user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of a priority for cell selection for aerial UEs from each cell in a set of cells and may select a cell from the set of cells based on the priority of each cell in the set of cells. In another example, an aerial UE may connect to a network available to aerial UEs and non-aerial UEs for auxiliary communications, when appropriate. In yet another example, when an aerial UE transitions to a new mission status, the aerial UE may transmit a tracking area update (TAU) if the aerial UE is connected to a cell in a tracking area that does not support the new mission status. In yet another example, a base station may page an aerial UE based on a mission status of the aerial UE.

In one embodiment, a service receives a device registration request sent by an endpoint device, wherein the endpoint device executes an onboarding agent that causes the endpoint device to send the device registration request via a cellular connection to a private access point name (APN) associated with the service. The service verifies that a network address of the endpoint device from which the device registration request was sent is associated with an integrated circuit card identifier (ICCID) or international mobile equipment identity (IMEI) indicated by the device registration request. The service identifies a tenant identifier associated with the ICCID or IMEI. The service sends, based on the tenant identifier, a device registration response to the endpoint device via the private APN.

Disclosed is a 5.sup.th generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system for supporting a data transmission rate higher than that of a 4.sup.th generation (4G) communication system such as long term evolution (LTE). According to various embodiments of the disclosure, provided is a method for operating an access and mobility management function (AMF) in a wireless communication system, comprising the steps of: receiving, from user equipment (UE), a service request including a list of protocol data unit (PDU) sessions to be activated, or a message about a mobility registration update; checking, on the basis of UE context information about the UE, whether identifiers (IDs) of all of always-on PDU sessions are included in the list of PDU sessions to be activated; and, when an omitted always-on PDU session is checked from the list of the PDU sessions to be activated, transmitting, to a session management function (SMF), a Nsmf_PDUSession_UpdateSMContext request message for requesting user plane activation of the omitted always-on PDU session.

One disclosure of the present specification provides a method by which a first network node performs communication on the basis of multiple USIMs. The method can comprise: receiving, from UE, a registration request message including MT service configuration information; receiving, from the UE, information informing that the UE leaves a first network including the first network node; receiving, from a second network node, information related to downlink data about the UE; and transmitting a paging message or a failure indication on the basis of the MT service configuration information and the information related to the downlink data.

Provided are a method for acquiring location information and an apparatus for acquiring location information, a device and a storage medium. The method includes: receiving answer data sent by a home subscriber server (HSS), where the answer data carries a hostname of a mobility management entity (MME); determining, on the basis of the hostname of the MME, a network actually registered for a user; and in a case where the network actually registered for the user is a 5G network, acquiring location information of the user in the 5G network.
