For the purposes of the present document, the terms and definitions 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.
5GMM-IDLE mode:
In this specification, if the term is used standalone, a UE in 5GMM-IDLE mode means the UE can be either in 5GMM-IDLE mode over 3GPP access or in 5GMM-IDLE mode over non-3GPP access.
5GMM-CONNECTED mode:
In this specification, if the term is used standalone, a UE in 5GMM-CONNECTED mode means the UE can be either in 5GMM-CONNECTED mode over 3GPP access or in 5GMM-CONNECTED mode over non-3GPP access.
5GMM-IDLE mode over 3GPP access:
A UE is in 5GMM-IDLE mode over 3GPP access when no N1 NAS signalling connection between the UE and network over 3GPP access exists. The term 5GMM-IDLE mode over 3GPP access used in the present document corresponds to the term CM-IDLE state for 3GPP access used in
TS 23.501.
5GMM-CONNECTED mode over 3GPP access:
A UE is in 5GMM-CONNECTED mode over 3GPP access when a N1 NAS signalling connection between the UE and network over 3GPP access exists. The term 5GMM-CONNECTED mode over 3GPP access used in the present document corresponds to the term CM-CONNECTED state for 3GPP access used in
TS 23.501.
5GMM-IDLE mode over non-3GPP access:
A UE is in 5GMM-IDLE mode over non-3GPP access no N1 NAS signalling connection between the UE and network over non-3GPP access exists. The term 5GMM-IDLE mode over non-3GPP access used in the present document corresponds to the term CM-IDLE state for non-3GPP access used in
TS 23.501.
5GMM-CONNECTED mode over non-3GPP access:
A UE is in 5GMM-CONNECTED mode over non-3GPP access when it has N1 NAS signalling connection between the UE and network over non-3GPP access exists. The term 5GMM-CONNECTED mode over non-3GPP access used in the present document corresponds to the term CM-CONNECTED state for non-3GPP access used in
TS 23.501.
Access stratum connection:
A peer to peer access stratum connection between either the UE and the NG-RAN for 3GPP access or the UE and the N3IWF for non-3GPP access. The access stratum connection for 3GPP access corresponds to an RRC connection via the Uu reference point. The creation of the access stratum connection for non-3GPP access corresponds to the completion of the IKE_SA_INIT exchange (see
RFC 7296) via the NWu reference point.
DNN based congestion control:
Type of congestion control at session management level that is applied to reject session management requests from UEs or release PDU sessions when the associated DNN is congested.
EAP-5G:
A vendor-specific EAP method which is used to encapsulate NAS messages between the UE and the N3IWF.
General NAS level congestion control:
Type of congestion control at mobility management level that is applied at a general overload or congestion situation in the network, e.g. lack of processing resources.
Last visited registered TAI:
A TAI which is contained in the registration area that the UE registered to the network and which identifies the tracking area last visited by the UE.
N1 mode:
A mode of a UE allowing access to the 5G core network via the 5G access network.
N1 NAS signalling connection:
A peer to peer N1 mode connection between UE and AMF. An N1 NAS signalling connection is either the concatenation of an RRC connection via the Uu reference point and an NG connection via the N2 reference point for 3GPP access, or the concatenation of an IPsec tunnel via the NWu reference point and an NG connection via the N2 reference point for non-3GPP access.
PDU session for LADN:
A PDU session with a DNN associated with a LADN.
S-NSSAI based congestion control:
Type of congestion control at session management level that is applied to reject session management requests from UEs for a particular S-NSSAI.
Selected core network type information:
A type of core network (EPC or 5GCN) selected by the UE NAS layer in case of an E-UTRA cell connected to both EPC and 5GCN.
