Abstract
A method of maintaining maximum number of bearers when maximum number of bearers reached is proposed. An enhanced SM/ESM procedure is proposed to synchronize between UE and network and to determine a precise maximum bearer number for protecting network resource and improving user experience. The UE determines the maximum bearer number based on a cause code contained in an SM reject message and updates the number under various network scenarios including system change.
