Optimized Procedure for PFD Management

The embodiments herein relate to optimized procedure for Packet Flow Description (PFD) management. In one embodiment, there proposes a method (800) for managing Packet Flow Description (PFD), comprising: receiving (S801) from a Session Management Function (SFM) (201) or a User Plane Function (UPF) (302) a demand message indicating the demand for at least one PFD mle for an application; detecting (S802) the at least one PFD mle for the application; and notifying (S803) information regarding the at least one PFD rule to the SMF (201) or the UPF (302). The embodiments herein may achieve an optimized procedure for PFD Management which optimizes the delivery of PFD rules, by reducing the amount of signaling and by reducing the number of hops between the producer (AF) and the consumer (UPF).

The present application relates to the technical field of communications, and provides a parameter configuration method, apparatus and system, a device and a storage medium. The method comprises: a core network sends parameter configuration information to a relay terminal device, wherein the parameter configuration information is used for configuring QoS parameters between the relay terminal device and a remote terminal device in the case of starting a reflective QoS mechanism. The present application ensures the quality of service transmission between the relay terminal device and the remote terminal device.

Provisional computing resource policy evaluation

A policy management service receives a request to evaluate a provisional policy to determine the impact of implementation of the provisional policy. The policy management service evaluates an active policy against a request to access a computing resource to determine an authorization decision. The policy management service then evaluates the provisional policy against the request to access the computing resource to generate an evaluation of the provisional policy. The policy management service provides the evaluation and the authorization decision in response to the request to evaluate the provisional policy.

Systems and methods are provided for charging for a connection in a radiocommunication system that provides services to both a device which is directly connected to the radiocommunication system and one or more other devices which connect to the radiocommunication system using, e.g., the transceiver of the device which is able to directly connect to the radiocommunication system. A method for charging for a first device which is connected to a second device that has radiocommunication connectivity includes receiving, at a node in the radiocommunication system, a charging authorization message for the second device’s connection to the radiocommunication system, which charging authorization message includes the device identifier associated with the first device; adding, by the node in the radiocommunication system, the device identifier for the first device to a list associated with the second device; and sending an indication that a connection for the first and second device is authorized.

Apparatus for supporting and influencing QoS levels

The present disclosure provides methods and apparatuses related to mobile network systems. In an implementation, a method comprises configuring, by an application function (AF) of an apparatus in a mobile network system, a policy control function (PCF) to provide a plurality of Quality of Service (QoS) levels for a session related to an application or a service; and requesting, by the AF, the PCF to configure the plurality of QoS levels, wherein a QoS flow is associated with a plurality of QoS profiles for configuring the plurality of QoS levels in response to the QoS flow being established.

Method and device for monitoring network data

Provided in the embodiments of the present application are a method and device for monitoring network data. The method comprises: a NWDAF determines a terminal UE to be monitored that requires network data analysis and the type of data analysis for the UE to be monitored; the NWDAF determines a provider network function network element and a monitoring event which correspond to the UE to be monitored according to the type of data analysis for the UE to be monitored, the provider network function network element being used to provide source data for the UE to be monitored which is related to the data analysis type, and the monitoring event being used to indicate to the provider network function network element to monitor the source data; and the NWDAF sends the monitoring event to the provider network function network element.

Policy control for multiple accesses

A wireless device sends a registration request message to an access and mobility management function (AMF) of a network. The wireless device receives, from the AMF, a registration accept message comprising an access traffic steering, switching, and splitting (ATSSS) capability indication of the network.

Methods and nodes for handling bearers

The embodiments herein relate to a method performed by a gateway. The gateway detects that a procedure for activating or deactivating a bearer has been initiated. The gateway receives a first modify bearer or modify access bearers request message for the same PDN connection and UE as the bearer activation or deactivation procedure is intended for. The gateway detects a bearer mismatch between a first set of bearers and a second set of bearers known by the gateway and associated with said same PDN connection and UE. The gateway accepts, during a time interval, the received modify bearer or modify access bearers request message even though the bearer mismatch has been detected.

Restricted local operator services for a wireless network

A base station sends, to a wireless device, a system information block (SIB) indicating that restricted local operator services (RLOS) are supported by a public land mobile network, and receives, from the wireless device and based on the SIB indicating support for the RLOS, a preamble. The base station sends a random access response to the preamble and receives at least one first radio resource control (RRC) message comprising a first information element indicating that an RRC connection of the wireless device is for the RLOS and a second information element comprising an attach request message indicating, to a mobility management entity (MME) configured with an RLOS access point name, that an attach request of the wireless device is for the RLOS. The base station sends to the wireless device a second RRC message comprising an attach accept message indicating acceptance of the RLOS by the MME.

Latency-sensitive network-traffic quality of service

A telecommunication system can include routing devices, a bearer-management device, and a policy-management device. The bearer-management device can receive a request from a terminal to create a specialized bearer (SB) for a non-audio, non-video media type. The bearer-management device can determine that the request is associated with an authorized user, and then send a setup message comprising a Quality of Service (QoS) indicator to the policy-management device. The policy-management device can create the SB permitting data exchange between the terminal and a routing device. The SB can have QoS characteristics associated with the QoS indicator. In some examples, the terminal can receive a network address, determine an associated network port, and send a SIP INVITE message indicating the non-audio, non-video media type. The terminal can then exchange data on the network port with a peer network terminal.
