1  Scopep. 10

This study focuses on key issue description, solution and conclusion on the enhancement of 5G UE Policy aspect by covering following objectives:
  • URSP rule provisioning and updating procedures for home-routed and LBO roaming scenario, while keeping the existing framework of policy control based on HPLMN.
  • Investigate whether and how the network can be made aware when the UE enforces URSP rule and investigate whether and what actions the 5G network can perform.
  • Investigate if enhancements are needed for provisioning UE with consistent URSP across 5GC and EPC, and study the mechanism if needed.
  • Investigate how to support standardized and operator-specific traffic categories in the traffic descriptor of URSP.

3  Definitions of terms and abbreviationsp. 11

3.1  Termsp. 11

For the purposes of the present document, the terms given in TR 21.905 and the following apply. A term defined in the present document takes precedence over the definition of the same term, if any, in TR 21.905.

3.2  Abbreviationsp. 11

For the purposes of the present document, the abbreviations given in TR 21.905 and the following apply. An abbreviation defined in the present document takes precedence over the definition of the same abbreviation, if any, in TR 21.905.

4  Architectural Assumptions and Principlesp. 11

Rel-15, Rel-16 and Rel-17 specified UE Policy mechanism in TS 23.501, TS 23.502 and TS 23.503 will be used as baseline for this study.
No new interface in EPC will be defined to solve the issue of consistent URSP provisioning.
For the objective to investigate if enhancements are needed for provisioning UE with consistent URSP across 5GC and EPC, and study the mechanism if needed, the following applies:
  • Solutions using the ePCO to transfer URSP Rules via EPC assumes that the UE is registered in an MME supporting 5GS interworking, and as such transferring of ePCO in the PDN Connection signalling is supported by the MME and SGW. It is also assumed that the SMF+PGW-C selected for a PDN Connection established to a specific APN supports UE policy delivery service (i.e. SMF+PGW-C supports sending and receiving of a UE Policy Container to/from the UE).
