3GPP TS 23.502 version 15.3.0 Release 15
1. UE to (R)AN: AN message (AN parameters, Registration Request (Registration type, SUCI or 5G-GUTI or PEI,
last visited TAI (if available), Security parameters, Requested NSSAI, [Mapping Of Requested NSSAI], Default
Configured NSSAI Indication, UE Radio Capability Update, UE MM Core Network Capability, PDU Session
status, List Of PDU Sessions To Be Activated, Follow-on request, MICO mode preference, Requested DRX
parameters, [LADN DNN(s) or Indicator Of Requesting LADN Information]) and UE Policy Container (the list
of PSIs, indication of UE support for ANDSP)).
In the case of NG-RAN, the AN parameters include e.g. SUCI or the 5G-GUTI, the Selected PLMN ID and
Requested NSSAI, the AN parameters also include Establishment cause. The Establishment cause provides the
reason for requesting the establishment of an RRC connection.
The Registration type indicates if the UE wants to perform an Initial Registration (i.e. the UE is in RM-
DEREGISTERED state), a Mobility Registration Update (i.e. the UE is in RM-REGISTERED state and initiates
a Registration procedure due to mobility or due to the UE needs to update its capabilities or protocol parameters,
or to request a change of the set of network slices it is allowed to use), a Periodic Registration Update (i.e. the
UE is in RM-REGISTERED state and initiates a Registration procedure due to the Periodic Registration Update
timer expiry, see clause 4.2.2.2.1) or an Emergency Registration (i.e. the UE is in limited service state).
When the UE is performing an Initial Registration the UE shall indicate its UE identity in the Registration
Request message as follows, listed in decreasing order of preference:
- a native 5G-GUTI assigned by the PLMN to which the UE is attempting to register, if available;
- a native 5G-GUTI assigned by an equivalent PLMN to the PLMN to which the UE is attempting to register,
if available;
- a native 5G-GUTI assigned by any other PLMN, if available.
NOTE 1: This can also be a 5G-GUTIs assigned via another access type.
- Otherwise, the UE shall include its SUCI in the Registration Request as defined in TS 33.501 [15].
When the UE is performing an Initial Registration (i.e., the UE is in RM-DEREGISTERED state) with a native
5G-GUTI then the UE shall indicate the related GUAMI information in the AN parameters. When the UE is
performing an Initial Registration with its SUCI, the UE shall not indicate any GUAMI information in the AN
parameters.
If the UE previously received a UE Configuration Update Command indicating that the UE needs to re-register
and that it shall not provide the 5G-GUTI in access stratum signalling when performing the Registration
procedure, the UE performs a Mobility Registration and shall not include any GUAMI information in the AN
parameters. For an Emergency Registration, the SUCI shall be included if the UE does not have a valid 5G-
GUTI available; the PEI shall be included when the UE has no SUPI and no valid 5G-GUTI. In other cases, the
5G-GUTI is included and it indicates the last serving AMF.
The UE may provide the UE's usage setting based on its configuration as defined in TS 23.501 [2]
clause 5.16.3.7. In case of Initial Registration or Mobility Registration Update, the UE includes the Mapping Of
Requested NSSAI (if available), which is the mapping of each S-NSSAI of the Requested NSSAI to the HPLMN
S-NSSAIs, to ensure that the network is able to verify whether the S-NSSAI(s) in the Requested NSSAI are
permitted based on the Subscribed S-NSSAIs.
The UE includes the Default Configured NSSAI Indication if the UE is using a Default Configured NSSAI, as
defined in TS 23.501 [2].
In the case of Mobility Registration Update, the UE includes in the List Of PDU Sessions To Be Activated the
PDU Sessions for which there are pending uplink data. When the UE includes the List Of PDU Sessions To Be
Activated, the UE shall indicate PDU Sessions only associated with the access the Registration Request is related
to. In some cases (see TS 24.501 [25]) the UE may include PDU Sessions in the List Of PDU Sessions To Be
Activated even if there are no pending uplink data for those PDU Sessions.
NOTE 2: A PDU Session corresponding to a LADN is not included in the List Of PDU Sessions To Be Activated
when the UE is outside the area of availability of the LADN.
The UE MM Core Network Capability is provided by the UE and handled by AMF as defined in TS 23.501 [2]
clause 5.4.4a The UE includes in the UE MM Core Network Capability an indication if it supports Request Type
