    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. The present invention provides a method of a SMF entity in a wireless communication system. The method comprises identifying whether to deactivate an UP connection of a first PDU session of one or more established PDU sessions, identifying whether the first PDU session supports an UP optimization based on the identification, and transmitting, to an AMF entity, a first message for deactivating the UP connection.

    Abstract: A Mobility Management Entity (MME), a local server, an MME-local server interface, and a data transmission method are provided. The communication method of an MME supporting inter-gateway handover of a terminal includes acquiring, when a handover from a source gateway to a target gateway is detected during an ongoing data communication of the terminal, information on a session between the terminal and a server and transmitting, when the server is a local server present in a mobile communication core network, a tunnel setup command to the local server through an interface established with the local server, the tunnel setup command instructing to establish a tunnel between the local server and the target gateway for data communication from the local server to the target gateway.

    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a 5th generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate than a 4th generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). According to various embodiments, there is provided an operating method of an application function (AF) in a wireless communication system that includes: transmitting, to a network exposure function (NEF), a Nnef_EventExposure_Subscribe message including an address of a user equipment (UE) to request a subscription of a user plane function (UPF) event exposure service for the UE; and receiving, from the NEF, a Nnef_EventExposure_Notify message including information on the UPF event exposure service for the UE.
