Content for TR 23.700-78 Word version: 18.1.0
1 Scope p. 9
The present document is a technical report capturing the study on application layer support for Personal IoT networks (PIN). The aspects of the study include analyzing application layer architecture requirements of PIN, identifying key issues and supporting PIN application layer functional model. The study also includes information and support from 3GPP network to PIN, service or applications discovery within a PIN or by the UE outside of a PIN via 3GPP network.
The study takes into consideration the work done for PIN in TR 23.700-88 and other related work in 3GPP.
