5G Standalone (SA) Registration and Call Flow - TLW - V1.1

The 5G SA registration call flow involves the following key steps: 1) The UE establishes a connection with the gNB via random access and RRC procedures. 2) The UE sends a registration request and the core network performs authentication and security procedures. 3) The AMF, SMF and other core functions set up default bearers and sessions for the UE. 4) Once security is enabled, the gNB and core finalize session setup and the UE can begin data transfer.

UE Interactions
techlteworld

✓ UE performs the following interactions during the standalone registration procedure:


✓ Perform the random access procedure to initiate communication with the gNB.
✓ Setup the RRC connection with the gNB. A signaling bearer is set up at this point. The UE also sends a
Registration Request to the 5G core.
✓ Perform NAS level authentication and initiate ciphering for the NAS messages with the 5G core.
✓ Complete the AS security procedure with the gNB.
✓ Handle the RRC Reconfiguration from the gNB. This message sets up the default PDU session. The message
may add secondary cells.
✓ The UE concludes the registration procedure.
✓ Data is flowing in the downlink and uplink directions.

gNB Interactions techlteworld

✓ The gNB acts as the conduit for communication between the UE and the 5G Core:
✓ Handle the random access request from the UE and assign resources for initiating the RRC connection.
✓ Setup the RRC connection with the UE. SRB1 is set up at this point. Starting at this point the gNB starts
assigning downlink and uplink resources to the UE via the PDCCH.
✓ The gNB transports the Registration Request from the UE to the AMF.
✓ The gNB carries the NAS signaling between the UE and the gNB. The gNB is just acting as a conduit for these
messages. The NAS signaling authenticates the UE and establishes a ciphered link between the AMF and the
UE.
✓ The 5G Core initiates the default PDU session setup. A Registration Accept is also received from the UE.
✓ The gNB goes on to enable security between the UE and the gNB.
✓ Once the security setup is completed, the gNB activates the default PDU session via the RRC Reconfiguration
message. It also transports the Registration Complete message to the AMF.
✓ At this point, downlink and uplink data streams are flowing between the UE and the Internet.

AMF — Access and Mobility Function

The AMF coordinates the 5G standalone registration procedure. The sequence of interactions is:

✓ Handle the Initial UE Message from the gNB. This message carries the Registration Request from the UE.
✓ On getting the Registration Request, the new AMF obtains the UE context from the old AMF.
✓ The AMF then authenticates the UE after obtaining the keys from the AUSF. NAS level security is established
between the UE and the AMF.
✓ The AMF also checks the 5G-EIR to verify that registration is not being attempted from a stolen device.
✓ The AMF then obtains subscription data from the UDM.
✓ The AMF then creates a policy-association with the PCF.
✓ Then the AMF updates the SMF context and sends an Initial Context Setup Request to activate the default PDU
session. The message also carries the Registration Accept message from the AMF.
✓ When the gNB signals that the Initial Context setup has been completed, the AMF updates the SMF context.

AUSF — Authentication Server Function
The AUSF participates in the authentication procedure. It obtains the UE authentication information from the UDM.

UDM — Unified Data Management techlteworld

✓ The UDM provides authentication vectors


during the registration procedure.
✓ The new AMF serving the user also registers
with the UDM. The old AMF deregisters with
the UDM.
✓ The UDM also provides Subscriber Data
Management information to the new AMF.

PCF — Policy Control Function techlteworld

✓ The new AMF creates a policy-


association with the PCF. The old AMF
deletes the policy- association with the
PCF.
✓ The PCF registers with the AMF so that
it can be notified on events like location
change and communication failure.

SMF — Session Management Function techlteworld

The SMF serves as the control plane entity for session management. It is involved in the following interactions:

✓ The Old AMF deregisters with the


SMF.
✓ The New AMF updates the Session
Management Context. The SMF
assigns an IP address and the
tunnel id to be used for sending
uplink data.
✓ The SMF selects the UPF to be
used for the session.
✓ The SMF update the UPF using
PFCP messages via the N4 control-
data plane interface.
✓ The New AMF also notifies the
SMF when the session is ready for
uplink and downlink data transfer.

UPF — User Plane Function techlteworld
✓ The UPF is a data plane component
that handles user data.
✓ The UPF is completely controlled from
the SMF using the N4 interface.
✓ The SMF uses the Packet Flow Control
Protocol (PFCP) to update the data
plane.
✓ The first PFCP Session Modification
Request prepares the UPF to receive
uplink data.
✓ The UPF also starts buffering the
downlink data.

✓ Once the default PDU session has


been set up, the SMF updates the
PFCP session to start sending downlink
data.
