1Introduction

The support for NIDD (Non-IP Data Delivery) is introduced from 3GPP Rel. 13 and later releases.

Functions for NIDD may be used to handle MO and MT communication with UE, where the data used for

the communication is considered unstructured from the EPS standpoint (which we refer to also as

Non-IP). NIDD is only applicable for LTE Cat NB1 RAT. Non-IP data calls are supported for both tethered

and embedded use cases.

This document mainly introduces how to use the NIDD function of Quectel BG96 module through AT

commands.
