Abstract  Abstract

A method and apparatus for network initiated attachment are provided. A machine-type communication (MTC) wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) is in a detached state. A MTC server sends a trigger request to the MTC WTRU via a network entity such as a Home Subscriber Server (HSS) a mobility management gateway (MME) a Serving General packet radio service Support Node (SGSN) or a combination thereof. The network entity stores updates or obtains information associated with a current former or default connection status of the WTRU. The information is obtained from the WTRU attach request message subscription information locally stored information or a combination thereof. The subscription information includes a subscription profile. The WTRU upon receiving the trigger request performs a network attachment procedure enters an attached state and communicates with the MTC server. The WTRU performs a network detach procedure and enters a detached state after completing communications with the MTC server.
