MACHINE TYPE COMMUNICATION (MTC) VIA NON-ACCESS STRATUM LAYER

摘要

Technology for providing a machine type communication (MTC) service via a non-access stratum (NAS) layer is disclosed. In an example, a wireless device can include a NAS layer module, an application processor, and a MTC dispatcher. The NAS layer module can provide mobility management (MM) and session management (SM) for different radio access technology (RAT) signaling via the NAS layer. The application processor can process a MTC application running on the wireless device. The MTC dispatcher within the NAS layer module or the application processor can be used identify a MTC type of service in a message and perform an action based on the MTC type of service.
