Abstract

An Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) provides the UE with a UE Reporting Area, URA. The URA is a sub-area of the Reporting Area, RA and is defined by a set of cells, gNBs or traffic area identifiers, TAIs, or a combination of them. The UE sends a notification to the AMF when it crosses the border of URA. The AMF determines the URA by retrieving or determining a RA for the UE, retrieving a PRA of the UE, and determining the URA in dependence on the RA and PRA.
