CSG ID: A CSG ID is a unique identifier within the scope of one PLMN defined in 3GPP TS 23.003 [2] which
identifies a Closed Subscriber Group (CSG) in the PLMN associated with a cell or group of cells to which access is
restricted to members of the CSG.
CSG selection: A UE supporting CSG selection selects CSG cell either automatically based on the list of allowed CSG
identities or manually based on user selection of CSG on indication of list of available CSGs. Definition derived from
3GPP TS 23.122 [6].
Dedicated bearer: An EPS bearer that is associated with uplink packet filters in the UE and downlink packet filters in
the PDN GW where the filters only match certain packets. Definition derived from 3GPP TS 23.401 [10].
Default bearer: An EPS bearer that gets established with every new PDN connection. Its context remains established
throughout the lifetime of that PDN connection. A default EPS bearer is a non-GBR bearer. Definition derived from
3GPP TS 23.401 [10].
Emergency EPS bearer context: A default EPS bearer context which was activated with request type "emergency", or
any dedicated EPS bearer context associated to this default EPS bearer context.
EMM context: An EMM context is established in the UE and the MME when an attach procedure is successfully
completed.
EMM-CONNECTED mode: A UE is in EMM-CONNECTED mode when a NAS signalling connection between UE
and network is established. The term EMM-CONNECTED mode used in the present document corresponds to the term
ECM-CONNECTED state used in 3GPP TS 23.401 [10].
EMM-IDLE mode: A UE is in EMM-IDLE mode when no NAS signalling connection between UE and network exists.
The term EMM-IDLE mode used in the present document corresponds to the term ECM-IDLE state used in
3GPP TS 23.401 [10].
EPS security context: In the present specification, EPS security context is used as a synonym for EPS NAS security
context specified in 3GPP TS 33.401 [19].
EPS services: Within the context of this specification, EPS services is used as a synonym for GPRS services in
3GPP TS 24.008 [13].
Evolved packet core network: The successor to the 3GPP Release 7 packet-switched core network, developed by
3GPP within the framework of the 3GPP System Architecture Evolution (SAE).
Evolved packet system: The evolved packet system (EPS) or evolved 3GPP packet-switched domain consists of the
evolved packet core network and the evolved universal terrestrial radio access network. Definition derived from
3GPP TS 23.401 [10].
GBR bearer: An EPS bearer that uses dedicated network resources related to a guaranteed bit rate (GBR) value, which
are permanently allocated at EPS bearer establishment/modification. Definition derived from 3GPP TS 23.401 [10].
General NAS level mobility management congestion control: The type of congestion control that is applied at a
general overload or congestion situation in the network, e.g. lack of processing resources.
Initial NAS message: A NAS message is considered as an initial NAS message, if this NAS message can trigger the
establishment of a NAS signalling connection. For instance, the ATTACH REQUEST message is an initial NAS
message.
IPv4v6 capability: Capability of the IP stack associated with a UE to support a dual stack configuration with both an
IPv4 address and an IPv6 address allocated.
Kilobit: 1000 bits.
Last Visited Registered TAI: A TAI which is contained in the TAI list that the UE registered to the network and
which identifies the tracking area last visited by the UE.
Linked Bearer Identity: This identity indicates to which default bearer the additional bearer resource is linked.
