摘要: A communication system for transmitting data packets includes: at least one Access Node (AN) connectable to a user equipment (UE); a User Plane Function (UPF) component; and a data network (DN). The UPF component is a distributed component and comprises: at least one User Plane Function Edge (UPF-E) component and a User Plane Function Core (UPF-C) component, the UPF-E component being connected between the at least one AN and the UPF-C component, and the UPF-C component being connected between the UPF-E component and the data network (DN) or another UPF-C; and a UPF Management (UPF-M) component configured to terminate an N4 interface.

摘要: A method for license-based Access Network (AN) access control independent of subscriber data in a telecommunications network includes: sending, by a user equipment (UE) to an AN, an AN resource request to use one or more AN resources; obtaining, by the AN from an AN license validator, validity information, the validity information indicating whether at least one AN license information element or at least one AN license derived information element is valid for an AN resource to which the UE is trying to attach; and based on an AN license information element or an AN license derived information element being valid for the AN resource to which the UE is trying to attach, allowing, by the AN, the UE to access the requested AN resource.

摘要: A method for an interconnection functionality between a first mobile communication network and a second mobile communication network includes: associating or assigning private identifier information to specific public land mobile network (PLMN) identifier information related to the second mobile communication network; and in respect of signalling messages and/or data traffic packets that are to be routed or to be addressed or to be processed, providing for or supporting, by a network identifier and number translating functionality, a replacement and/or a translation, in both directions, between the private identifier information and the specific PLMN identifier information related to the second mobile communication network.

摘要: A method for an emulation functionality between a first mobile communication network and a second mobile communication network includes: implementing, by an emulation function and its first and second interfaces using a respective plurality of emulated network functions or services and emulated network elements, an exchange of messages between the first and second mobile communication networks, thereby mapping between equivalent capabilities or needs of respective network functions or services and respective network elements and providing for: implementation of first individual interfaces or first individual interface types between the network functions or services and respective corresponding emulated network functions or services in the form of application programming interfaces (APIs); and implementation of second individual interfaces or second individual interface types between the network elements and respective corresponding emulated network elements in the form of network standard-specific interfaces or protocols.

摘要: A communication system includes an external entity and a 5G system (5GS), wherein the 5GS comprises a 5G core (5GC), wherein the 5GC comprises a functional entity, a Unified Data Management (UDM), a Session Management Function (SMF), and a User Plane Function (UPF). A method for setting up expected communication behavior information in the system includes: performing, by the external entity, an Application Programming Interface (API) call via an API of the functional entity and setting up an expected communication behavior for a subscriber or set of subscribers, a data network name (DNN), a 5G virtual network (VN), a slice or a combination thereof that the functional entity is allowed to manage.
