Systems and methods for priority based session and mobility management
First Claim
1. An apparatus for communicating in a multiple access wireless communications network, the apparatus comprising a processor configured to:
- transmit, by a wireless device, a first control plane message comprising a first value for a priority indicator, the first value for the priority indicator setting a low priority access device property of the wireless device for the multiple access wireless communications network;
establish, by the wireless device, one or more packet switched connections associated with one or more applications of the wireless device;
determine, by the wireless device, that at least one of the one or more packet switched connections is associated with an application having a priority access level for the multiple access wireless communications network that is higher than the low priority access device property, wherein the priority access level of the application is one of a high priority or a normal priority; and
transmit, by the wireless device based on the determining, a second control plane message comprising a second value for the priority indicator, the second value for the priority indicator clearing the low priority access device property of the wireless device for the multiple access wireless communications network.

Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices for priority based management of the connections between a device and a network are described herein. In some aspects, a device may include multiple applications with different access priorities. As a result of a mobility event, such as change in location or resuming operation after an idle period, the device may be configured to transmit a signal indicating its status. The signal may include an access priority value. Various methods and systems for determining an access priority value for devices configured to support one or more access priorities are described.

29. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions for communicating by a wireless device in a multiple access wireless communications network, the instructions, when executed by a computer, causing the wireless device to:
-
transmit a first control plane message comprising a first value for a priority indicator, the first value for the priority indicator setting a low priority access device property of the wireless device for the multiple access wireless communications network; establish one or more packet switched connections associated with one or more applications of the wireless device; determine that at least one of the one or more packet switched connections is associated with an application having a priority access level for the multiple access wireless communications network that is higher than the low priority access device property, wherein the priority access level of the application is one of a high priority or a normal priority; and transmit, based on the determining, a second control plane message comprising a second value for the priority indicator, the second value for the priority indicator clearing the low priority access device property of the wireless device for the multiple access wireless communications network.

30. An apparatus for communicating in a multiple access wireless communications network, the apparatus comprising:
-
means for transmitting, by a wireless device, a first control plane message comprising a first value for a priority indicator, the first value for the priority indicator setting a low priority access device property of the wireless device for the multiple access wireless communications network; means for establishing, by the wireless device, one or more packet switched connections associated with one or more applications of the wireless device; means for determining, by the wireless device, that at least one of the one or more packet switched connections is associated with an application having a priority access level for the multiple access wireless communications network that is higher than the low priority access device property, wherein the priority access level of the application is one of a high priority or a normal priority; and means for transmitting, by the wireless device based on the determining, a second control plane message comprising a second value for the priority indicator, the second value for the priority indicator clearing the low priority access device property of the wireless device for the multiple access wireless communications network.
