1  Scopep. 8

This Technical Report investigates following aspects for UEs that can establish a MA PDU Session to 5GC over both 3GPP and non-3GPP accesses:
  • Whether and how to support additional steering mode(s), with potential PMF extensions if needed.
  • Whether and how to support additional steering functionality(ies). Proposed solutions shall be based on IETF protocols or extension of such protocols (i.e. QUIC/MP-QUIC).
  • Whether and how to support multi-access PDU session with one 3GPP access leg over EPC and the other access leg over non-3GPP access 5GS.

4  Architectural Assumptions and Requirementsp. 10

For all objectives, the architectural requirements and assumption include:
  • NG RAN, W-5GAN and any 5G AN shall not be impacted.
  • The study is restricted to ATSSS support for traffic routed over one 3GPP access and one non-3GPP access.
  • The study uses 5GS Rel-16 ATSSS as a starting point: MA PDU Session shall be reused.
  • Any additional steering functionality shall be based on IETF protocols or extensions of such protocols (i.e. QUIC/MP-QUIC [10]), any differences from the existing IETF drafts shall be clearly specified and minimized.
  • the Rel-17 ATSSS work applies also to 5G-RG.
For the support of additional steering mode(s) or of additional steering functionality(ies), the architectural requirements and assumptions include also:
  • Any additional steering functionalities in the User Plane should reside in UE and UPF as shown in Figure 4-1 below.

4.1  Architecture Assumptionsp. 10

In this release, for a GBR QoS Flow of MA PDU Session, it is assumed that the SMF provides a QoS profile to a single access network at a given time.
