Section: 4.13.8.4 Coverage availability information provisioning to the MME
Content: The MME may use satellite coverage availability information to support satellite access by UEs with discontinuous coverage operation. Satellite coverage availability information may be provisioned to the MME by O&M. NOTE: In this release of the specification there is no support for provisioning of satellite coverage availability information to an MME from an AF. The satellite coverage availability information provisioned to the MME describes when and where satellite coverage is expected to be available in an area. The satellite coverage availability information is not UE specific and can be applied by the MME for any UE in the affected area.
