SIGNALING OF CORE NETWORK RESTART TO WIRELESS DEVICES

摘要

A radio access network node and methods are described herein for signaling an indication of a network restart to wireless devices within a cellular network. In one embodiment, the radio access network node is operable to: (1) signal, to the wireless devices, an indication that a network restart has occurred in a core network node in a pool of core network nodes in the cellular network; and (2) receive, from at least one of the wireless devices, a re-registration message in response to the signaling of the indication that the network restart has occurred. The wireless device and methods implemented by the same are also described herein.
